Special: Creating the Strongest Mind in the Room with Erin Frey

Erin Frey hangs out with aliens, signs, plays guitar? and she Fences. Oh yea. She is a brilliant creative Writer in Residence and Head of Research at Lift.do, and she works alongside Tony Stubblebine, the founder of the platform. Now, I don't want to call Lift just an 'app' because the power behind this tool is revolutionary. It has helped more than 75,000 people put goals and habits into action, and it has been a huge anchor in the recreation and transformation of my life in particular. It?s simple, it?s clean, and it gives you a nice big kick in the ass when falling off track with your goals and visions. It also encourages and rewards you in unbelievably clever and cunning ways, kinda like moms and pops use to do back in the day. The crew over at Lift is currently releasing a book called ?The Strongest Mind in the Room? which dives inside the minds of elite athletes, CEOs, artists, and experts who are using mindfulness and meditation to boost performance, increase productivity, expand their creative side and improve as leaders. You can get a free chapter now at book.lift.do :) Do you lift, bra? You should.   Don't be a big silly goose, listen to my ultra inspiring ,energy packed interview with Erin right nizowwwww.
