Keeping Your Edge

When you’re absorbed day-to-day with running your business, how do you keep yourself fully fueled for all the challenges and opportunities coming your way?

Jonathan and I explore the mind/body/spirit continuum and how to find your ideal system to ensure your edge stays sharply honed.

Expanding your knowledge through books, podcasts, programs and even coaching from those in your market-adjacent space (or completely outside it).

The connection between moving and feeding your body with your mindset (and sometimes your spirit).

What to do when your ideal routine gets whacked sideways—by COVID, a change in work schedule or your home life.

Wiring your habits—including your physical space—to support your goals and minimize relying on discipline (hint, hint: reduce friction).

Understanding the relationship between spirituality, being of service, contentment and confidence.
