There is a symbiotic relationship between what we do and who that work is calling us to be. For example, if you want to make a movie, you have to become the type of person that can direct, produce, write, have creative opinions, etc. etc. With this in mind, it's no wonder why it's so difficult to do something truly new. Not only do you have to actu…

We often think "more" is the best solution to our growth and development. More hours worked, more tasks to do, more books to read, more mentors to guide us, etc etc. But all this typically amounts to is a busy schedule, an even busier mind, and not a lot of traction. In this episode we propose the simple solution that "less" might actually be the s…

Performance. Stress. These are two words that don't intuitively go hand in hand. In today's increasingly more millennial westernized-society we tend to avoid stress in favor of feeling good in the moment. We can even assume the mentality that stress is entirely bad. In other words, we demonize cortisol and worship dopamine. But if we want to operat…

In 2018 Trevor did what many fantasize about doing but few actually do and that is to go for broke on a dream. He quit his lucrative job as a consultant at a big firm and got to work on building his health coaching business. Oh, and he also hired me as his coach to help him with it all. What would drive him to do something so risky? What in the wor…

Self-preservation can be a dangerous trap. The need to prove something or to protect yourself can seriously diminish your ability to perform at your best. To fight this, there has to be a willingness to lay yourself down. The best way forward is often counterintuitive. When we take a step back, we can become aware of everything that we already have…

What if what is standing between you and your dream is not actually your skills or your strategy as much as it a story? It is a story that you have told yourself about yourself and it continually sabotages you. It keeps you from showing up, opening up, and putting your most creative self out there consistently. What if your dream is demanding you t…

Through my personal journey and also through walking alongside others, I have discovered that within every individual, there is both a lion and a lamb. Usually, the two are off balance in one way or another, and that creates fear and insecurity. We have to learn to simultaneously embrace pressure and also know that we have nothing to prove. When yo…

Your whole life is an ongoing unfolding of who you were made to be. Oftentimes, the goals we want to achieve and the places we want to go require us to change how we think and act. We all have challenges and limitations that stand in our way during this journey, and many of these can be stripped away with practice. But some limitations are built in…

This week I sat down with leader, dreamer, and pioneer: Matt Reynolds. Matt is the lead pastor at one of the most influential churches in the city of Atlanta, and he has some incredible insight into the process of building a sustainable vision that is bigger than yourself. In this conversation, we dive into the journey of seeing a dream grow from a…

I have yet to meet a person or leader who wouldn't immediately benefit from having the fierce conversation that they have been avoiding. Most relationships and organizations live or die on their ability to regularly have healthy and/or tough conversations. These conversations are not easy and can be scary, but if done well they can heal, mend or ev…

We all have ideas about what we want for our future. When we talk about dreams, it is easy to picture our ideal results, but it is much harder to value the process. Taking the first step can seem absolutely paralyzing. Today we’re talking about an analogy that can help transform goals into action. Ready, aim, fire. Or as I like to say: dream, learn…

On the journey of becoming our true selves, we are often trapped by the lie that we are not enough. But we are not finished products; we are heroes in training. We each have a unique ability to become. Regardless of where you started out on this journey, there is endless opportunity to be discovered in what you have been given. Let's talk about how…

Why does it sometimes seem impossible to make changes and move forward? Maybe the biggest roadblock is not found in the world around you, but in the world inside of you. Our assumptions and beliefs shape the way we see our lives, and not always for the better. I am here to tell you that just because life has always been like that, doesn’t mean it a…

The title of this episode is a metaphor for seasons that we will all walk through. In these seasons of struggle and transformation, we often feel broken, exposed, and drained. Our instinct is to turn away and hold our breath as we wait for something to change for the better. But what would happen if we really pressed in during these times? We could…

We discuss how you can take your focus away from external affirmation and get back to the heart of the creative process. We a…

Today is not about why but instead about what and how. I want to take something that feels mysterious and make it simple. Mysterious things happen around us and to us, all the time but who we have become and where we’ve ended is not a mystery. Every day we travel down familiar roads. We take the same turns at each intersection and then consequently…

My guest this week is with another person who has had an epic and eclectic career life. Jamie Winship has done everything from inner-city policework, then being recruited by the CIA to infiltrate Muslim extremist groups, then deciding instead to live among extremist groups as an unconventional missionary, and now helping individuals discover and li…

Do you ever feel like a duck who is calm on the surface of the water but beneath the legs are churning like crazy? Welcome to most of my life. Sometimes the churning was intense and other times it was just a subtle annoying disturbance in the background of my life. Either way, it sucked and it has been a serious journey to become a less anxious and…

This episode will encourage the mess out of you and open you up to see these…

Imagine for a second that you signed up for a marathon and on race morning you showed up dehydrated, hungover and running on two hours of sleep. Somebody would most likely pull you aside and say something to the effect of "marathons are hard enough without you making it harder on yourself." Life is just like that marathon. For that matter, so is ma…

Friends I want to introduce you to something that has truly changed my life and is continuing to shape and guide it. I came across this phrase/concept in Stephen Pressfield's book The War of Art and his subsequent book Turning Pro.

This episode is not for those who struggle with too much confidence but too little confidence. Some area in your life you are likely scared, playing it small, and shrinking by the day.

After our first conversation with Brian about living in the present, we now discuss how we can also live with a vibrant sense of vision. Getting clear and intentional about our vision is increasingly important in a culture where being "busy" is celebrated as a badge of honor. We're always working "in" our life, but how often do we intentionally pul…

Have you noticed that we will develop the skills to get what we want, but we will rarely develop the skills to want what we have? That means that even when we get what we want it still doesn't make us happy or content. But we go one believing "well the next goal or thing will finally satisfy." Will it? On this episode, we will explore all this and …

I believe great change is always preceded by great repentance. No I am not going to "preach" at you. There is no religous agenda here. Repent simply means to "change your mind." My question is what if we fail to see great change because we fail to understand what repenting even means? Repentance is way more than just feeling bad about something. It…

When we experience pain in this life, we simultaneously experience vulnerability. It is a moment where the protective walls around our hearts and minds are down. In those vulernable moments lies can creep in, derail and sabatoge our lives.By Drew McClure

There is a version of ourselves(false self) that is born out of fear, shame and blame. There is also another version of ourselves(true self) that is born out of faith, hope and love. To go where you want to go you will have to let one die and the other start to live.By Drew McClure
