Inner Excellence: Jim Murphy On Overcoming Mental Blocks, Mastering The Ego, Success Through Selflessness & The Pillars of Extraordinary Performance
Jim Murphy is the author of "Inner Excellence," a book compelling enough that NFL players read it during playoff games.
This conversation explores Jim's counterintuitive thesis that selflessness, not ego, is the foundation of fearless performance. We discuss his journey from mental breakdown to spiritual awakening, his five years of solitude in the desert, and why self-centeredness is our greatest obstacle to both peak performance and fulfillment.
Along the way, Jim reveals my own attachment to outcomes and the transactional relationship I have with love.
Jim's wisdom is hard-won. This conversation is powerful. Enjoy!

Dr. Mindy Pelz On Women's Hormonal Health, Cyclical Fasting, Health As A Verb, Reclaiming Your Body's Intelligence & Transforming Menopause Into Empowerment
Dr. Mindy Pelz is a functional medicine expert, bestselling author of "Fast Like a Girl," and a specialist in women's hormonal health.
This conversation explores why modern life creates an evolutionary mismatch for women, the hormonal hierarchy that controls everything, and why fasting isn't one-size-fits-all. We discuss metabolic switching, why your pre-period cravings are biological, and how menopause can be empowerment rather than decline.
Mindy uncovers the fundamental flaws in our approach to female health.
This is a must-listen for any woman ready to stop giving her power away and start trusting her body's intelligence. Enjoy!
