What Married Couples Can Learn From Will Smith’s Oscars Slap

Why did Will Smith slap Chris Rock? Was it because of the darkness inside of him, or maybe because Jada gave him the “off with his head” look? On this episode of God, Money & Purpose, Raul and Vivian Villacis offer their take on why Smith acted the way he did from a place of understanding rather than judgment.

Celebrate How Far You’ve Come

In this episode of God, Money & Purpose, Raul and Vivian talk about the importance of celebrating your wins. Vivian has recently completed putting on her 6 Day Queens’ Challenge, and Raul has recently finished his own Get Your Edge Back Challenge. As teachers, the two have come so far in the years since they started their respective personal development journeys. This would not have been possible without celebrating the base hits along the way, rather than focusing on home runs that are few and far between. Watch this episode to see what Raul and Vivian have been doing since the last episode. https://edgelink.click/getmyedgeback Follow us: Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/godmoneypurpose Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/047uSAEkLnvGmXlQ6MuuxB Vivian Villacis: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vivianvillacis/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/vivianpassion Raul Villacis: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/raultheedge/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RaulTheEDGE/ Website: https://raulvillacis.com/

It’s up to you to change yourself

On this episode of God, Money & Purpose, Vivian and Raul discuss the topic of change. A person needs to be in pain in order to change. More specifically, a person needs to face his pain in order to change their habits. Once a person starts on that journey of self-improvement, the question becomes: what can the other person do? The person who has taken steps to change often has a fantasy that his partner will follow the example and magically level up as well. The reality is a little more complicated. You have to change yourself enough and be happy with yourself enough to inspire your partner to change, but not pressure them. It may take a long time, years, even, in order for your partner to face her own pain. But the way to make lasting change is to never focus on the outcome but enjoy the journey together.

Can We Ever Be Normal Again?

In this episode we are discussing what the new normal is like as we see the light at the end of the tunnel for the COVID pandemic. Raul and Vivian have had less romance in their marriage in the past year, partly because of major health scares, and partly because they never leave each other. Not having time apart causes more pressure on a relationship, and for different reasons than you might expect. As businessmen and women, we show a different side of ourselves than the nurturing side that we have at home, and the romantic side behind closed doors. But due to COVID, we never really had a geographic separation that allowed us to mentally shift gears. So we had to shift our personalities in seconds from being the take-no-prisoners sales guru to being the nurturing parent, among other shifts. If even Bill and Melinda Gates can’t stay together, what chance do the rest of us have? Raul and Vivian will show you how to bring out the best in yourself and each other.

What We Learn From Being Teachers

On this episode of the God, Money & Purpose Podcast, Vivian just finished her 6 Day Challenge to Ignite Your Passion, and Raul is about to start his 7 Day Challenge to Get Your Edge Back. These week-long challenges help women and men, respectively, get in touch with their best selves that in some cases has become dormant, leaving them feeling empty inside. Working with a group can lead to much better results than trying to help yourself. Being a group setting can help you realize that things that other people realize are true about themselves are also the case for you. It can also help you to be in an atmosphere where everyone wants to do the work, and it’s easier to motivate yourself in that energy-rich setting. Vivian and Raul are going to take the lessons from these challenges and incorporate them into a future workshop for couples. Watch the entire video and be sure to like, subscribe, and click the bell.
