Finding Your Edge and Taking Advantage of Knowing Where You Are - Ep. 62

If we want to avoid wandering aimlessly in our lives and in pursuit of our goals we need 3 things:

We need a map or a plan to follow
We need to know where we currently are
We need to know what our desired destination is or where we want to go

One of the best ways to do identify those first two is by tracking our stats, habits, numbers, and data. It's by keeping good records. As we do this we'll also be able to discover our strengths, our weaknesses, and use that knowledge as a way to take advantage of our positioning to give us an edge.

In this episode, Sione and Alana talk about the lessons and tips they've picked up by being more intentional about tracking their goals and progress to help you discover ways to get or create a map for yourself and then to determine where you are on that map.

For help in determining what you want or where you want to go once you have that map, check out:

What if the key to your biggest transformation was simply listening? In this episode of Recounting Life Lessons, we sit down with best-selling author, Marko Petrovic, who shares his extraordinary journey of trusting intuition, embracing stillness, and surrendering to life's calling. From running a 40-acre farm in Australia to selling everything and moving to Mexico for 9 months of complete silence, Marko's story is a powerful testament to what happens when you truly tune in to your soul's path. What you'll learn in this episode: How to recognize when intuition is guiding you toward transformation The profound lessons Marko learned during 9 months of silence Why stillness and surrender are often the most powerful tools for growth The balance between challenge and support on the path to self-discoverty How to break free from external expectations and truly align with your purpose If you've ever felt stuck, uncertain, or at a crossroads in life, this episode will inspire you to slow down, listen deeply, and trust the unseen forces guiding you forward.

And the moment he acted on it, everything shifted. Growth happens in the balance of challenge and support: Marko shared that during his journey, he received equal parts of challenge and support. Some people embraced his silence, offering kindness and encouragement, while others pushed back and even criticized him. But both were necessary for his growth. True clarity comes from slowing down and aligning with natural rhythms: Marko talked about spending nine months in silence, which—without him planning it—mirrored the exact time it takes for a child to develop in the womb. How wild is that? It's a reminder that transformation happens over time, and when we slow down enough, we align with the natural flow of life.…

Understanding Addiction: Regarding Substance Abuse and Addiction with Craig A. Williamson - Ep 80 1:16:31

12 weeks之前1:16:31

1:16:31

This conversation with Craig Williamson goes beyond surface-level discussions about addiction. It’s a deeply human exploration of what it means to navigate life’s hardest challenges while finding ways to grow and inspire others. Whether you’ve been personally affected by addiction or are seeking actionable insights for personal development, this episode is packed with wisdom you won’t want to miss. Addiction is a deeply personal and challenging journey that affects millions of individuals and families. In our latest episode of Recounting Life Lessons , we had the privilege of speaking with Craig A. Williamson, author of Regarding Substance Abuse and Addiction . Drawing from his own experiences—including the devastating loss of his son in 2023—Craig shared invaluable insights on addiction, recovery, and the broader lessons we can all take away for personal growth and success. With 4.8 million Americans aged 12 and over diagnosed with a substance use disorder in 2022, nearly everyone has been touched by addiction in some way. While there are no easy answers, Craig’s perspective offers a beacon of hope, compassion, and practical guidance for those navigating these turbulent waters. Key Takeaways from the Episode Addiction is a Continuum: Craig highlights the nuanced distinction between substance abuse and the disease of addiction, explaining how understanding this continuum is crucial for offering the right support. The Importance of "Loving with Detachment": Balancing unconditional love with boundaries helps protect both the loved one and ourselves. It avoids the pitfalls of enabling harmful behaviors. Recovery is the Foundation: For anyone struggling with addiction, focusing on recovery must come before pursuing other goals. As Craig says, "Nothing else matters if recovery isn't successful." The Role of Self-Awareness: Supporting someone through addiction requires a deep understanding of one's own emotions and actions, as intuition often leads to counterproductive responses. Brokenness as Opportunity: Craig's reframing of hardships as an opportunity for growth and connection inspires a shift in perspective, encouraging resilience and optimism. For an in-depth exploration of these takeaways and more, be sure to listen to the full interview. 5 Life Lessons from the Interview to Apply Beyond Addiction Craig's insights extend far beyond addiction and recovery. Here are five lessons that resonate across all areas of personal growth and success: Seek to Understand Before Acting: Understanding the root of challenges—whether addiction, career struggles, or relationship issues—is the first step to responding effectively. Knowledge empowers us to make better decisions. Focus on Progress, Not Perfection: Taking small, consistent steps toward improvement is more sustainable and impactful than striving for unattainable perfection. Love with Boundaries: Learning to care for others without compromising your own well-being is essential for maintaining healthy relationships and achieving personal goals. Turn Challenges into Growth & Service Opportunities: Reframing setbacks as opportunities for learning and serving can help you move forward with greater strength and purpose. Have Something to Aspire to: Life and the things in our environment will try to pull us in all sorts of directions. Deciding what we want to aspire to will anchor us to a path that's taking us where we ultimately want to go and help us measure the weight and value of our choices. Discover More: For a deeper dive into the lessons and insights Craig shared, tune in to the full interview. And don’t forget to check out his book, Regarding Substance Abuse and Addiction , for practical guidance and heartfelt stories that shed light on one of today’s most pressing issues.

One of the most beautiful aspects of life and human connection is the fact that no two people are alike. We are all unique and come with our own perspetives through which we see the world.

Rather than being driven by divisive political agendas, he advocates for a human-centered perspective that prioritizes empathy, growth, and deeper connection. During our discussion, we delve into the power of lens development—how seeing things anew can lead to personal growth and positive change. Kyle also shares practical strategies for modeling humanity, embracing our own cultures with grace, and extending that same grace towards others.
