I had a coaching call with a friend of mine, we'll call him Rich. Rich is a young guy about 23 years old, works full time, lives at home, and wants to save up to buy his first property. With the pandemic and a relationship breakup causing him to put on a bit of weight, his primary health and wellness goal is to drop some weight. His resources are short, with saving for a house, so he's looking for some guidance on how to get back on track. It was a great conversation and I definitely believe having this conversation with Rich, I was able to share some of my knowledge to help him come to some solid conclusions on what it's going to take for him to reach his goals.

Today on the Live Better Now Podcast my guest is Joe De Sena, founder and CEO of Spartan - the world's leading endurance sports brand and co-founder of Death Race. Born and raised in working-class Queens, De Sena has been an entrepreneur from a young age. He started a successful pool cleaning business as a preteen and later after attending Cornell, went on to a trading career on Wall Street. After leaving the corporate world behind and moving his family to rural Vermont, De Sena discovered his passion for adventure races and endurance events competing in multiple extreme races. In a single year he completed 14 Ironman races. All of this eventually led to him creating the Spartan Race, which has since grown into a global fitness and wellness brand with a community of over 10 million athletes worldwide.

The concept of "mind over matter" suggests that the power of the mind is stronger than the physical body and can influence one's physical reality. It implies that by controlling one's thoughts and beliefs, a person can overcome physical challenges or limitations.

The idea of "thinking your way to success" is closely related to the concept of mind over matter. This will all make more sense to you when I tell you a personal story about something that happened to me back in 2008, 2009. By using the mind over matter concept a person can overcome obstacles and achieve their desired outcomes. And I believe the same method can be used to take you to your desired success level, whatever that looks like for you.

Enjoy the episode and if you have any questions, my email is zacharyrance@gmail.com.

Welcome to today's Life Coach Zach podcast where we explore the topic of building a village.

Florence's book "Build Your Village" offers a valuable guide on how to find joy and community in every stage of life. She encourages listeners to let love in and not be afraid to ask for help when needed. Building a village is not just about having people around us, but it's about forming meaningful connections that enhance our lives.

Have you ever taken a look, a serious look at the amount of time you spend on your phone? Whether social media, watching videos, work, etc. I have an iPhone and it tracks it for me and I'm sure if you have an Android device it does it as well, but the last couple of weeks and it definitely felt like it was creeping up, I've been averaging a lot of hours per day looking at my phone. I'm a Life Coach, I do a lot of my work through my phone.... I'm also a full-time Realtor and both businesses of mine are super busy, but I was shocked when I found out I was logging an average of 8hrs per day on my phone... That's gotta change a bit. I need to reduce that. I've turned off a bunch of notifications that cause you just to look at your phone to see what's up. I'm a pretty aware person so the plan going forward is to not pull out my phone when I'm bored or waiting in line. The plan is to reduce my screen time by 25%.

Let me know your thoughts. If you are listening on Spotify, there's an option to respond to the question.... What do you do to limit your screen time or unnecessary use of your phone? Let me know.  Thanks!!

Hypothetically and for the sake of discussion or argument, would you still be YOU if you were able to have a brain transplant?

Although it's not currently possible to have your brain transplanted because of the many bodily functions that are closely connected to the brain. What if you could? What if your brain could be transplanted with someone else's brain? Would you still be essentially you? Would your mindset and consciousness that you had, still be intact or would that all be wiped out? 

Thanks for listening!

There's a bunch of evidence that suggests that excessive use of cell phones and other devices can have negative effects on our mental health and well-being.

There are many published studies that show people who spend more time on their phones are more likely to experience symptoms of anxiety and depression, low self-esteem, attention deficit and difficulty communicating and problems with sleep. 

So knowing all that, it's really important to be mindful of our phone use and to use phones and other devices in a balanced way, and to take breaks from screens to rest and recharge. I'm personally always trying to be more mindful of my own phone and device use by restricting my time on my phone, wearing blue light glasses, and even deleting social media apps occasionally when I feel like I need to pull back. It's important to be mindful of how much time is spent on our devices. 

As we close out 2022, a year that has been challenging for many around the globe due to circumstances beyond our control, we can only hope that 2023 brings greater peace, prosperity, and happiness.

The more we think about something, the more likely we are to make it impossible. Sometimes we have to just go for it. Sometimes, all we need to do is THINK LESS AND DO MORE.

Today's episode is a solo podcast episode where I go over the 3 pillars of life, health, wealth and happiness.   Pilar No. 1: Health - It is the foundation of the pillars that you should get right away. Without good health, wealth is impossible to even consider and happiness will always be just out of your reach. Pilar No. 2: Wealth - I believe that we are all capable of massively influencing how successful we're going to be financially. What I'm talking about isn't luck, it's not magic, it's not winning the lottery, it's not finding a famous investor, it's by building systems designed to accelerate our journey to financial freedom. 3: Happiness - I feel like when we're happy; we are fulfilling our purpose in life. It is something that is going to make us want to get up in the morning, something that brings excitement and challenges with it, and kind of puts us forward into the direction of what we're here to accomplish in life.  Thanks for listening!

Johan van Vuuren is my guest today. I learned about Johan through a shared post by Jay Shetty. Johan is an actor and model based in the UK, originally from South Africa. He's established himself a pretty substantial social following under the name @manfromsomewhere and it's obvious why. His authentic approach and vulnerable posts are uplifting and inspiring messages all while he travels the globe on his adventures. Listen in as he tells me how he got started on his life journey from South Africa, some of his life challenges, and how he found himself through Meditation and Dr. Joe Dispenza. Incredible story! It was a pleasure speaking with Johan. Enjoy!

Look up and follow Johan on Tiktok and Instagram: @manfromsomewhere  Through his bio you can find all his relevant links.

TJ Tollakson, Former Pro Triathlete, 2014 North American Ironman Champion and founder of Dimond Bikes, the fastest triathlon bike in the world is my guest today. It was inspiring to hear about his journey as a pro athlete, all the challenges, the ups and downs, and the wins!  

My guest today is Dr. Frank Anderson, a Psychiatrist & Psychotherapist, and Trauma Specialist who is passionate about teaching brain-based psychotherapy and integrating current neuroscience knowledge with the IFS model of therapy. We have all experienced trauma in our lives, some more so than others but nonetheless, we have all experienced it, it's just a part of life. Dr. Anderson and I have a conversation about understanding trauma, how it affects our lives and the choices we make, how it affects our health, how we can manage it and be with it, and ultimately how we can heal from it. It's a journey with no destination.  It was a privilege to have Dr. Anderson on the podcast. I hope you enjoy our discussion and possibly find it helpful. Share the broadcast.

My guest today is Reilly Flynn, Co-Founder, Chief Executive Officer of Lome. Realizing that technology around him wasn't helping him be more present as a father or husband Reilly decided to develop the Lome platform to help families organize their time. Family life is complex. Time is a precious commodity. Lome helps you in a thoughtful place set your family intentions for the week helping you be more engaged, more present helping you can make the most of your time spent with members of your family.  Thank you Reilly for being my guest on the podcast.

My guest today is Leonard Perlmutter, he is the founder of The American Meditation Institute. We dive deep into the topic of the conscience mind and the sub-conscience mind and the relationship they have with each other and how they operate separately. It's a bit deep but Leonard has a wonderful analogy that should make it simple for you to understand.  If it doesn't make sense at first, play the episode again and listen closely.  This is a topic I'm super into and I talk about it a lot on social media and to the clients I coach. It was my pleasure to speak with Leonard, I hope you enjoy the episode and if you have any questions, leave a comment and I'll try and respond.  

Video also available on Spotify and Youtube. With just a little under 4 months until my next Ironman (April 23rd in Texas) I'm going over my goals for December; what I set out to do vs what I actually did to accomplish those goals. Plus in the second part of the video I demo me changing a tire, which I have to master to be prepared for whatever is thrown at me on race day.  Enjoy... Happy New Year!!
