Every once in a while, I read or hear quotes like the following: "A bad day for your ego is a good day for your soul." "When ego is lost, limit is lost. You become infinite, kind and beautiful." I'm not sure if I'm reading or hearing this more often than before, or whether I'm more sensitive to it now than I was in the past, but either way I disagree wholly and entirely with such sentiments. Your ego is you - the part of you that is unique and distinct from everyone else. The part that reasons, decides, chooses, loves, achieves and thinks. It's the best part of you and denying it - or worse - creating a systematic plan on how to 'conquer it' does not lead to good in your life. I know this because for the first 20 years of my life I attempted to conquer my ego - it was not pretty and it led to a lot of pain, anxiety, and frustration. It wasn't until I started listening to that part of me that my life turned around dramatically. The purpose of this podcast is to share my experience of how listening to my ego made my life better.

Our kids are the most important members of our family. It's our job as parents to raise them and prepare them for meeting the challenges of the world. The challenge of raising healthy, well-adapted kids is harder now than it was for our parents. There are more social pressures, larger problems, and a much different society than when we were growing up. Yet, human nature and children's physiological needs have not changed. How can we as parents still meet the needs of our child in a society more difficult to traverse than ever? On this week's podcast, we look at an article from The Military Wife And Mom and share our thoughts about the habits to raise healthy children. What we covered:

Sorry about the swear word but it’s not us… it’s our guest. Since the time this original episode aired, Mark Manson's book, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F#*K has gone on to become a New York Times Bestseller. Congrats to Mark! We thought it would be fun to go back and listen to what Mark had to say about the principles in his book in this interview with Dr. Kreso. The book is really about how to live a better life and that something we preach on Life By Design! Mark is an author, blogger and entrepreneur. Mark writes about personal development and has a lot of people reading his stuff… so check it out. What we covered:

We've all been there before. You take out your phone, open your Facebook or Instagram app, start scrolling, start seeing pictures of people on vacation, new homes, new cars, date nights, cute, funny kids, lean trim physiques and you begin to think - wow, what's wrong with me, I don't have any of those things? If you're lucky, those feelings end there, and you get back to your normal life, but sometimes the envy, jealousy, and resentment are much too intense and you end up becoming miserable and ruining your day. The purpose of this podcast is to help give you some reasons as to why we behave this way and a practical strategy to implement so it doesn't happen that often. What we covered:
