Critical thinking is one of the most crucial skills that you can posses. It allows you to see things happening with an unbiased view and it allows you to be strategic about your decisions. Every move you make has a consequence that can either serve you or hurt your.

As they say, "you are, what you surround yourself with". It's important to understand the content that you are consuming and the information that is conditioning you to become a certain type of person. Are you only consuming one sided information or are you going after both sides of the truth? Although it's easier to consume information that we agree with, it's even more important for you to be able to have a conversation with someone who doesn't agree with you and still be able to defend your beliefs.  Connect with us: Instagram: instagram.com/dealingwithlifestuff/ instagram.com/fdoceballos/ instagram.com/randystreig/ A podcast dedicated to people needing help dealing with life stuff.

In this weeks episode we take a dive into Phenomenology and trying to understand our reality. Sometimes we forget that culture defines our values and fail to realize the power certain words hold. It's important to realize that words mean different things to people, because of the association and power they hold. We can't argue the dictionary definition, but meaning is a different conversation.  Connect with us: Instagram: instagram.com/dealingwithlifestuff/ instagram.com/fdoceballos/ instagram.com/randystreig/ A podcast dedicated to people needing help dealing with life stuff.

As we start the week after an emotional last few days due to the unwarranted death of George Floyd that led to boycotts throughout the country, we share our thoughts and support to finding solutions to the systematic oppression of our communities. “If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse, and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality.” -Desmond Tutu Thank you to Brianne for joining us in this much needed conversation!

Dealing With Life Stuff - Welcome!

S2E20 - Memento Mori (4 of 4)

S2E19 - Work First, Then Reward (3 of 4)

S2E18 - Go Through The Motion (2 of 4)

S2E17 - That's Your Opinion (1 of 4) Remember life is what you believe it to be. If you're in a tough situation, ask yourself how you can think about it in a way that's more beneficial.

S2E16 - TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF (4 OF 4) With self-isolation and social distancing, it's important we care for ourselves mentally and physically. What are you doing right now to care for yourself mentally and physically in a way that will allow to re-engage society as a better version of yourself?

S2E15 - WHY I'M I DOING THIS (3 OF 4) The things we do are reflective of our internalization. If you are bored right now in this quarantine, is that a bad thing? Are you allowing yourself the time to reflect or are you reaching for Netflix or your phone to stifle that boredom you may be uncomfortable with? Be courageous and dive into that discomfort. You may be surprised and even encouraged by what you find.

S214 - STOP RUSHING (2 OF 4) We're sure you've heard it before, but life is a marathon. By taking a step back and reflecting, we allow ourselves to progress faster with patience than by hurrying to do things and presenting a less than excellent version of ourselves. What parts of your life give you the most stress and anxiety? Those are likely the parts you should consider slowing down and being more deliberate with your actions.

S2E13 - I'VE DONE WHAT I CAN (1 OF 4) With the state of things right now, it's important to reflect on what we control and don't. Ask yourself, "Can I control this? If not, am I willing to let this go?"

S2E12 - It takes time You can't expect to be better overnight.  It's a process.  Join us as we reminisce about the past and what trials we went through to become the people we are now and whether or not those trials were necessary.  If you're feeling restless, this is a chance to practice the virtue of patience.  It's tough, but worth it.  #podcast #patience #time #persistence #recovery #growth

S2E11 - Ambition fueled by philosophy Does your ambition feel stifled by others?  Maybe it's because of a difference in philosophy.  Take the time to get to know what fuels your ambition and then analyze what fuels the ambition of those around you.  If ambitions come from different philosophies, maybe it's time to look for people who share the same philosophy as you. What fuels your ambition? #podcast #ambition #philosophy #playingwellwithothers #fuel #motivation #drive

S2E10 - What will others say? Do you let what others say and think about you influence your life?  In this episode, we talk about our different points of view when it comes to listening to the opinions and inputs of other people when you're the topic of conversation. Let us know your thoughts! #podcast #selfawareness #life #opinions #perspective

S2E9 - Growing from feedback

S2E8 - Labels (part 4 of 4)

S2E7 - Do Today What You Want to do Tomorrow (part 3 of 4)

Randy explains the  Reticular Activating System (RAS), a bundle of nerves at our brainstem that filters out unnecessary information so the important stuff gets through and how powerful patterns can be in your life.
