This episode is a simple reminder to ask yourself this question today: Why? Reflect with me and think about why you do what you do. I hope this helps start the week off right!         Enjoy!

After a month off, I'm back! In this episode, I give a quick update on what I've been up to this Summer so far and what I have planned in the next few months. I am starting a 100 Days of Sweat challenge inspired by Ammar from the Youtube channel @Yes Theory. Simply exercise every day for 100 days till you sweat! I hope you join me and the thousands of others participating in this challenge.   Yes Theory Youtube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvK4bOhULCpmLabd2pDMtnA)   My email ([email protected]) My Personal Instagram (@carlos_ribera) My Music Instagram (@maavio)     Enjoy!

Don't we all start to feel old, too quickly? Do you remember what it was like to be a kid? In this week's episode, I discuss ways that we can live more in the moment and remember the simpler times in our lives as kids.

In 21 days, I was able to be early to almost everything I committed to, which was something I was having trouble with before. In this episode, I express how habits don't have to be perfect but taking small incremental steps is progress, and it's the best way to start.     Enjoy!
