Wisdm goes right to the roots of those issues to arm you with knowledge you can apply to your day-to-day life -- helping you reframe how you think and act from your foundation.

Top 4 COVID Lessons to Change The Rest of Your Life
The Top 4 COVID Lessons to Change The Rest of Your Life. Yes, there is timeless wisdom that applies directly to not only how we can thrive during this pandemic, but fundamentally change how we conduct the rest of our lives going forward AFTER the pandemic. COVID is a wake up call, on so many levels, but particularly regarding how we deal with the unexpected, fear and anxiety over what we can't control, how we spend our time and what's actually important to us (now and going forward) and how many of us have been rather blindly "falling forward through life" under the dubious assumption of the Deferred Life Plan.  This special Wisdm episode may indeed be the wake up call you needed, to both reframe how you think about this surreal time (and other unexpected macro events such as pandemics, economic collapses, etc.) and refactor what's important to you for when the pandemic is over. 4 timeless, powerful lessons & insights you can apply today.

Solving Morning Anxiety - 5 minute version
Dealing with anxiety, perhaps more than ever before? And is it particularly bad in the morning? While anxiety issues have become the NUMBER ONE mental health issue in the U.S. recently, fortunately there are some simple actions you can take to dramatically reduce or even eliminate your morning anxiety (and perhaps any other anxiety you might be dealing with). While everyone seems to have a cure or advice for dealing with anxiety, how has that been working for you? Right. Surprisingly, few go to the ROOT CAUSES -- the first principles that could be driving or at least exacerbating your anxiety, so that's what we do here -- helping you address your morning anxiety both beforehand as well as while it happens (if it even does after applying what you learn here).  In this shorter, "micro dose" version of the Solving Morning Anxiety episode, we summarize the core wisdom and guidance in just a few minutes so you can get to the bottom line quickly. And then if you want to go deeper, listen to the full version of our Solving Morning Anxiety  episode for a more comprehensive learning session.

More than ever in this age of Coronavirus, an unstable world, and social media-induced fear -- so many of us deal with fears and anxiety about our future...near term and longer term.

Fortunately, there is both timeless, proven wisdom from Stoicism and Buddhism as well as modern cognitive behavioral therapy that we can apply to completely reframe how you think about not only your fears and anxiety about the "what ifs" but taking back control of fear, where you are going and why, and how to become unflappable in the face of upcoming stresses and life happenings and fears.  In this shorter, "micro dose" version of the Fear of the Future episode, we summarize the core wisdom and guidance in just a few minutes so you can get to the bottom line quickly.

In this full version of the Fear of the Future episode, we'll learn about why having fears about what lies ahead, worst case thinking and future-focused fear in general is not only normal, but our brains are pre-wired for it thanks to evolution. Thankfully there are some simple techniques you can apply right away to -- and we discuss what they are, why they work, and help you to zoom out to remember what really matters.  Time to turn fear into an asset!
