Episodes

  1. The Trojan Horse Of Change

    Could “this will change your life” carry a hidden message that you are not enough? In The Trojan Horse of Change, I explore how a promise of transformation can become a burden of self-judgment. I share why I built IAMMETHOD around choosing from your potential—and why your power matters most when...

  2. The Unbroken Student

    The Unbroken Student Choose Who You Are Before Pressure Chooses for You College can be one of the most exciting periods of life, but it can also bring enormous pressure. Pressure to succeed. Pressure to fit in. Pressure to figure out your future. Pressure to become someone. But what if the answer...

  3. Change Is A Bad Habit

    Did you know that trying to change yourself is actually a bad habit.

  4. You Are Not The 1%

    You Are Not the 1%...Yet: The 99% Try to Change. The 1% Choose. Most people believe the 1% are different because they have more talent, more discipline, more money, more motivation, or more opportunity. But what if that is not the real difference? In this IAMMETHOD conversation, I challenge one…

  5. You Think You're in Control… You're Not

    Most people believe they are in control of their life. They make plans. They set goals. They try to change their habits. But beneath all of that effort, something else is quietly running the system. In this episode, we explore the uncomfortable truth that many people are not actually directing...

  6. Chose My Way

    This episode features my original song, “Chose My Way.” I wrote and produced it as a musical declaration of the IAMMETHOD philosophy; this piece challenges the belief that growth requires constant self-reinvention. What if you were never broken? What if the endless pursuit of change is what keeps...

  7. Why Knowing Isn't Enough

    Why do people keep asking for advice and then do nothing with it? In this episode, we explore why information alone never moves a life forward. You can hear the truth, understand the steps, and agree with the logic, yet nothing actually shifts. Not because you are broken, lazy, or incapable, but...

  8. The Lie Of New Years Resolutions

    You don’t need a New Year to become someone new. You need to choose who you are.

  9. Stop Chasing Success

    Ask yourself, as an entrepreneur: What are you chasing? What future self are you running after? What part of you are you trying to escape? And who are you desperately trying to become… that makes you believe you aren’t already enough? Before you take another step, pause and sit with that. Because...

  10. The Addicted Entrepreneur

    So you are an entrepreneur, you have a vision, a dream, a wild idea. You are the one who wants to move the world. Then you are all of us entrepreneurs. You are addicted to challenging life, addicted to finding the right formula for success. But here is a truth that I found, entrepreneurs aren’t...

  11. The Great One!

    Beneath the fear, beneath the conditioning, beneath the survival identity, beneath the masks you learned to wear to be accepted, beneath the quiet ways you’ve abandoned yourself just to fit in, there is a self that has never wavered. Never weakened. Never disappeared. This self has watched you...

  12. The Invisible You

    Have you ever felt invisible? Like no matter how hard you try, people just don’t really see who you truly are. They don’t see your passion, your heart, your soul. You show up. You work hard. You give your best. And yet, it feels like your presence slips through the cracks. That feeling, that…

  13. Escaping the False Life Script: The Life You Were Never Meant to Live

    Have you ever felt like no matter how much progress you make… you end up back in the same place? Like some invisible hand keeps pulling you toward a version of yourself you thought you outgrew? Or like you’ve been following a plan for your life — but deep down, you know it’s not yours?

  14. Are You The Noise You Are Running From?

    You think the noise is out there, social media, opinions, politics, the world moving too fast. But what if the noise isn’t out there at all? What if the noise… is you?

  15. You Are Not Your Emotions!

    Let me ask you something. When you feel something — anger, sadness, peace, or joy — who’s really in control? Most people believe emotions happen to them. That they’re trapped inside whatever they feel. But the truth is… you’re not your emotions. You’re their architect.

  16. You Have 24 Hours To Live!

    Imagine this, you have just been told you have 24 hours to live. No extensions. No negotiations. The clock is ticking. Suddenly, everything you thought you’d do ‘someday’ disappears. The self you were waiting to ‘change' into is gone and you only have right now.

  17. Why IAM Collapses Time

    "The future is an illusion until it arrives, and when the future arrives, you will still only be able to live it today, not tomorrow. You see, 'Change' wants you to wait for the future, 'Change' doesn't believe in now. But 'Choosing' gives you the power to live your future today."

  18. What Choice Am I Avoiding?

    Life is not about what you want to change or where you hope to be, life is about the decision sitting in front of you right now. And the reason this matters is because every time you avoid a choice, you’re wiring your brain to stay stuck. What Choice are you avoiding?

  19. The Pain Of Change

    Here’s the truth you may not want to hear: The pain you bear often comes from the change you seek. Why? Because change always puts you in waiting. It says, “When I finally change, then I’ll be who I want to be.” But waiting keeps you stuck in the very pain you want to escape.

  20. Change Is A Lie

    For generations, we’ve been told the same story: You must change your life in order to advance. Change your habits. Change your mindset. Change your circumstances. But here’s the truth: change has always been a lie.

  21. Choosing Is Now

    When you 'Choose' you are commanding a now. When you attempt to 'Change' you command a tomorrow.

  22. Your Habits Are Not The Problem

    We call things ‘habits’ like they’re harmless routines; brushing your teeth, scrolling your phone, always running late. But the truth is this: a habit is not just behavior. A habit is a command. A survival mechanism your identity uses to keep itself alive.

  23. Trying To Change Will Break You!

    We’ve all heard it. Someone says, “This is going to change my life.” And every time, I cringe. Because I know what’s about to happen.

  24. Why Does This Keep Happening To Me?

    “Why Does This Keep Happening to Me?” You’re not cursed. You’re not stuck. Life isn’t against you—it’s reflecting you. In this episode, I break down how your identity—your “I AM”—shapes your experiences. The patterns you keep running into aren’t punishment... they’re feedback. Once you stop…

    more
  25. The Importance Of Now!

    "The Importance Of Now!" Think about this When are you living? Yesterday, Now or tomorrow? Which one of these do you have control over? Which one of these holds you back? "Now" refers to the present moment—the point in time that is happening right at this instant. It’s the only moment you can…

    more
  26. Your Body Becomes Your Mind!

    Why are you always angry at everything, or, conversely, why are you always positive and happy? The body, in essence, becomes the mind, the triggering chemicals produced in the body are orchestrated by your thoughts. What you think triggers specific neural and hormonal responses, leading the body…

    more
  27. Just For A Moment

    Just for a moment have you tried to change and been absolutely frustrated? Just for a moment have you ever thought that personal change was a futile attempt? Just for a moment have you ever thought that we are not meant to change..but meant to BE?

  28. The Power Of Government & Your Choices

    Today, we're diving deep into a topic that has shaped societies throughout history: Government Leadership and the control of….'Choices.' Governments and leadership already know that the power is in not controlling the idea of 'Change' but in the power of controlling 'Choices.'

  29. I AM Not Like That

    Have you ever done something you knew you shouldn’t have, then immediately asked yourself, “Why did I just do that? I know better!” You tell yourself, “I don’t act like that. I never act like that. So why now?” We then berate and beat ourselves for doing what we know we should not be doing, yet…

  30. Why Are You So Lazy?

    We have all told someone this or have been told ourselves, "Why are you so lazy?" But what is actually behind the word lazy? We are transfixed on the term only as the unwillingness to get up and move, but there is more to this.

  31. New Year's Resolution?

    New Year's Resolutions start on January 1, but what happens to most of them on January 17 and why?

  32. Does Motivation Work?

    Does Motivation Work? We think it does; we hope it does because we all initially react the same way. It is that burst of an external stimulant that reacts to our internal identity. But now that it has been presented to us, what will we do with it?

  33. Choose Your Life

    Choose Your Life Poem Trying to 'change' your life is a Sisyphean Chore, a never ending battle, a constant chore. The Sisyphean chore refers to a task or labor that is seemingly endless, futile, and repetitive. It is named after Sisyphus, a figure from Greek mythology. According to the myth,...

  34. What Is Controlling Your Life?

    We go through life without fully understanding what is controlling our lives. We struggle with the emotions of not obtaining what we desire or becoming who we should truly be. What is controlling your life? Your mechanics, which are built by emotions

  35. Identity Crisis

    I don't know who I am anymore. What am I supposed to be doing with my life? I am lost. Where am I going? Why can't I find my path? At some point in life, we will all enter a period of an identity crisis. Is it a crisis, or is it a time of discovery?

  36. Opportunity Is Looking For You

    How many times have you let an opportunity pass you by? Are you prepared to take advantage of an opportunity? www.iammethod.com

  37. Take A Bite Out Of Life

    Live who you truly are. Brilliance lies within you, never to change but to choose your inherent gifts of greatness.

  38. I AM Starting Tomorrow

    Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tomorrow...Why do we wait until tomorrow to start our new life? Why don't we start right now, at this moment, to take control? Why?

  39. Are You A Habit?

    Are you a habit? Are your entire life and everything you do a habit? What is a habit, and how is it created? Did you know that we build our life and life habits consciously and emotionally, then live that construction, our lives subconsciously and neuro/bio mechanically, and are then rewarded and...

  40. Flea And The Jar

    There is a study of fleas in a jar and how they are limited to their jumping abilities by placing them in a jar and then placing a lid on the jar and reconditioning them to limit their jumping abilities. After reconditioning the fleas, the lid is removed, and the fleas are allowed to jump out of...

  41. Trying To Change Is A Bad Habit

    How many times have you tried to 'change'? And no 'change' happened, or it was short-lived. Have you tried 'changing' so much that trying to 'change' has become a bad habit?

  42. I Am So Depressed

    I Am So Depressed. Are you struggling with the thoughts of depression or do you know someone who is? This episode will help you think about the definition of depression differently.

  43. It Didn‘t Work!

    How many times have we followed a diet, spent time reading or listening to a self-help book, attending a seminar to advance our life to no avail? Then we decry the product as insufficient in its delivery of results while spouting, "It Didn't Work!" It wasn't the life altering information set…

    more
  44. Why Can't I Do it?

    Why can't I do what I am suppose to be doing with my life? Because of your script, because of an unclear definition of your I AM. But you can choose to take control at any moment in time.

  45. I AM So Worried

    What is worry? Can we control worry? Are we perpetually worried?

  46. New Year's Resolution

    How many of us have started our New Year's Resolutions on January 1 and ended them several weeks later? All of us have done this at some point in our lives. Why? www.iammethod.com

  47. Mother Can you Hear Me?

    Mother can you hear me? You have moved onto another place and I need your guidance, your wisdom, your direction. I long for your love and touch. I want to just talk to you one more time. Can you hear me?

  48. Music To Become

    Music is one of the most powerful tools to place yourself into the light of who you truly are.

  49. You Get Who You Are

    You don't get what you want in life, you get who you are.

  50. Why I Did What I Do

    I had an insightful question posed to me recently which I thought was going to be about my I Am MEthod, but the tables were turned. I was asked, “Why did you do what you are now doing? Why did you go against the grain of people trying to change? Tell me why you are wrong?
