Enlightenment of Change

The Intelligence Beyond Your Mind with John Osborne (Episode 413)

In today's episode, you'll discover: 1. How inner clarity translates into better decisions in high-stakes environments? 2. What is it about sound and devotional chanting that opens something in you that words and concepts can't reach? 3. If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or at a crossroads, what is the single most accessible thing you can do today to access a deeper layer of knowing? To support these three takeaways, I chose a quote from Shawn Mendez: "It took me from a place of fear and anxiety to a place where I realized you can't get anywhere if you don't start with Compassion for yourself." About John Osborne: John Osborne is a consciousness facilitator, former Trappist monk, Yale Divinity graduate, and senior faculty member of the Art of Living Foundation. Personally trained by the global humanitarian Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, he has led meditation retreats worldwide for over 30 years and co-founded Project Welcome Home Troops, which brings breath-based PTSD relief to U.S. veterans.

314. Tim Rhode – Changing Lanes to Create Sustainable Change

Connie's motivational quote for today is by – James Belasco and Ralph Stayer, "Change is hard because people overestimate the value of what they have and underestimate the value of what they may gain by giving that up. Each week, I pause to reflect on my life and business and all the changes that needed to happen through the years to sustain and grow my business. Here is the secret I've learned: all progress requires change. I have also learned that we can't do it alone! So, if you ever feel stuck, uncertain, or frustrated with problems, poor performance, or challenging opportunities, trust that you can create a clear path forward, accelerate your progress, achieve your goals, and help others do the same. I'm excited to share this week's guest, Tim Rhodes, who is returning for the second time.
