Michael Hicks The Liv2thrive Podcast

Thank you for being a listener. Kindly give us a review. Most men don't have an action problem. They have a fear problem. And fear is smart — it disguises itself as preparation, responsibility, and wisdom so you never even realize it's running the show.In Part 1 of this three-part series, Michael Hicks breaks down why overthinking isn't a productivity issue — it's a fear issue. And until you call it what it is, it will keep costing you. In your career. In your home. In your marriage. In the life you know you're supposed to be building.In this episode: — Why overthinking is fear wearing a planning costume — The science behind your brain keeping you stuck — The real pain points this creates at home and in your marriage — 4 practical shifts to break the cycle and start moving — What it means to truly lead your home as the CEO — even when you're scaredThis episode is for: The high-achieving man who's winning at work and losing at home. The woman who sees her husband stuck and doesn't know how to reach him. The couple who wants more than just co-existing — and is ready to lead their family with intention and purpose.From a faith standpoint: God didn't give you a vision to keep it in a notebook. And fear is not confirmation you're not ready — it's confirmation you're standing right on the edge of something significant.Done is better than perfect. And your family deserves the version of you that moves.🎙️ Hosted by Michael Hicks | Liv2Thrive Coaching 🌐 Liv2Thrive | Work with Michael → https://pensight.com/x/liv2thriveDon't miss Parts 2 & 3 of this series dropping soon.Support the showTo Gain instant access to my new podcast drops subscribe here: https://youtube.com/@framingnewheightspodcast?si=An1To91cUDrk6JSBL.I.V.2.T.H.R.I.V.EHow to activate and re-brand your high-achieving self through the synthesis of mind, body and soul.

Thank you for being a listener. Kindly give us a review. Nothing changes until you protect your time, your energy, and your "no." In this episode, Michael Hicks breaks down why boundaries — not mindset, not motivation — are the real foundation under every goal his clients bring him. He shares the story of James, a client drowning in boundary struggles with his own brother, and the single question that gave James his peace back. Mihael connects the dots between unset boundaries and the things you're actually struggling with: exhaustion, anxiety, stalled goals, weight gain, short fuses, and the vices you lean on to get through the day. You'll walk away with one simple, usable tool you can apply to any relationship today. Work with Michael: [Talk with Michael B.

Thank you for being a listener. Kindly give us a review. Episode 190: From Semi Paralysis to Understanding Purpose with Isam QudeimatWhat happens when a health crisis takes away your ability to move — but not your ability to lead?Entrepreneur and business leader Isam Qudeimat joins us to share his journey through semi paralysis and the unexpected clarity it gave him about purpose, identity, and what really matters when everything you've built suddenly feels uncertain.The problem we solve in this episode: how to rediscover your sense of purpose after a major setback — when going back to "normal" isn't an option and you have to build something new instead.We talk about the moment everything changed, the mental battle of rebuilding from the ground up, and the practical mindset shifts that helped Isam go from feeling paralyzed (literally and figuratively) to leading with more clarity than ever.If you're an entrepreneur, leader, or anyone who's ever felt stuck after life knocked you down, this episode will give you language for what you're feeling — and a path forward.🔔 Subscribe so you don't miss next week's episode and leave a review if this conversation resonated with you.#Purpose, #Resilience, #Entrepreneurship, #Comeback, #OvercomingAdversity, #BusinessLeadership, #Mindset, #Motivation, #HealthCrisis, #PersonalGrowthSupport the showTo Gain instant access to my new podcast drops subscribe here: https://youtube.com/@framingnewheightspodcast?si=An1To91cUDrk6JSBL.I.V.2.T.H.R.I.V.EHow to activate and re-brand your high-achieving self through the synthesis of mind, body and soul.

Thank you for being a listener. Kindly give us a review. In this episode of Liv2Thrive, Michael Hicks challenges the culture of performing summer — and invites faith-based leaders, couples, and women to do something far more powerful: decide with conviction how they actually want to live this season.The truth is, everyone's summer looks different. A CEO trying to unplug from work mode. A wife who planned everyone else's summer and arrived at August empty. A teacher who finally exhales. Teenagers who want independence. Couples who haven't been on the same page in months. This episode speaks to all of them — and gives each one something real to hold onto.Michael walks through 7 powerful dimensions to help you architect YOUR summer — not the Instagram version, not the influencer bucket list, but the one that aligns with who you are, what your family needs, and what God designed this season to be.What You'll Discover:• Why the "bucket list" culture is making summer feel like a performance• The doing vs. being summer tension — and how it shows up in your marriage• 7 dimensions to design your summer with intention (body, marriage, faith, kids, self, community, and your September story)• What Scripture says about rest — and why it's not optional for the leader• The one exercise that turns your summer from reactive to intentionalYour action step this week: Find 30 quiet minutes and write your answer to this question — "What do I want to be able to say about Summer 2026 in September?" Share it with your spouse. Put one thing on the calendar. That's how conviction becomes reality.Summer 2026 can be the one you actually remember. Let's build it.Support the showTo Gain instant access to my new podcast drops subscribe here: https://youtube.com/@framingnewheightspodcast?si=An1To91cUDrk6JSBL.I.V.2.T.H.R.I.V.EHow to activate and re-brand your high-achieving self through the synthesis of mind, body and soul.

Thank you for being a listener. Kindly give us a review. Who told you that you weren't enough to lead your family?Because I promise you — it wasn't God.In this powerful episode of the Liv2Thrive Podcast, Michael Hicks goes deep on one of the most overlooked root causes keeping men stuck, disengaged, and disconnected from their God-given role as the leader of their household.Somewhere along the way, a lie got planted. Maybe it came from an absent father. Maybe it came from a culture that mocked masculinity on every screen you watched. Maybe it came from years of failing and nobody showing you how to get back up. Whatever the source — that lie has been running in the background of your life, quietly keeping you from stepping fully into who you were created to be.In this episode, we expose where those lies come from, name them out loud, and show you — through faith and practical action — how to renew your mind and reclaim your identity as a leader, a father, and a man of God.In this episode you'll discover:→ The 4 biggest lies men believe about their own leadership→ How fatherlessness, media, and culture silently shape your identity→ What God's Word actually says about who you are→ The power of renewing your mind as the ultimate counter-move→ How to step into your role as the CEO of your household — starting todayThis one is going to hit different.

Thank you for being a listener. Kindly give us a review. What happens when you finally let go? Michael Hicks found out — at the bottom.In this raw, unfiltered episode, Michael takes you inside the two moments that nearly ended his life and the one truth that saved it. This is EP. 186 of the Liv2Thrive Podcast — and it might be the most important episode Michael has ever recorded.WHAT YOU'LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE:→  The July 2009 lake rescue that left Michael exhausted, sinking, and saved by a stranger — and why he still didn't fully receive the gift God was offering him that day.→  The devastating false accusation last summer that put his career, freedom, and character on the line for six months — with nothing he could do but trust.→  The man Michael was before all of this: successful by every external measure, spiritually empty, living as a "Christianist" — going through the motions without ever reading his Bible or keeping God in his daily life.→  The night on the floor — hands and knees, crying out — when the strongest version of Michael finally admitted he couldn't do it alone.→  The vision on the drive home from summer school that arrived clear as day and changed everything.→  What "finding Jesus" actually means — not a one-time event, but a daily surrender that has transformed every area of Michael's life.WHO THIS EPISODE IS FOR:This episode is for the businessman who is high-functioning on the outside and quietly falling apart on the inside. The man who knows God's name but doesn't know His voice. The man who has been carrying everything alone and is exhausted from it.THE LIV2THRIVE INVITATION:In 90–120 days, Michael works with men to close the gap — rebuilding communication with their wife, reconnecting with their purpose, and showing up as the leader their home is waiting for. If something in this episode moved you, reach out. You don't have to carry this alone.Michael Hicks is a faith-based men's coach, host of the Liv2Thrive Podcast, and has been featured in The New York Times. He helps businessmen become the CEOs of their home again. Connect:  Talk with Michael B.

Thank you for being a listener. Kindly give us a review. In this special birthday episode of the Michael Hicks Liv2Thrive Podcast, Michael Hicks reflects on the top 10 lessons God taught him over the past year as he turns 53. This is a deeply personal conversation about faith, surrender, purpose, discipline, health, fatherhood, fasting, emotional growth, and letting go of what others say and do against you. Michael shares how releasing control to God has brought greater peace, why discipline matters more than motivation, how sustainable systems help you stay aware when you get off track, and why health and sleep must become priorities as you age. He also speaks on spiritual warfare, daily dependence on Jesus, the changing father-daughter relationship as children grow older, and the importance of investing intentionally in the relationships that matter most. This episode is for anyone in a season of growth, transition, healing, or spiritual rebuilding. If you have been feeling stretched, tested, or called higher, this conversation will help you reflect on where you are, what God may be teaching you, and how to move forward with greater clarity, peace, and purpose. Hashtags#MichaelHicks, #Liv2Thrive, #FaithBasedPodcast, #ChristianPodcast, #PersonalGrowth, #SelfGrowth, #PurposeDrivenLife, #SpiritualGrowth, #Discipline, #MindsetShift, #HealingJourney, #EmotionalHealing, #FaithOverFear, #TrustGod, #BirthdayReflection, #LifeLessons, #MensCoaching, #ChristianMen, #PurposeCoach, #SelfSabotage, #Fatherhood, #HealthAndWellness, #Fasting, #SpiritualWarfare, #GodFirstSearch-friendly keyword tags for upload fields, separated by commasMichael Hicks, Liv2Thrive, Michael Hicks podcast, Christian podcast, faith based podcast, birthday reflection podcast, life lessons at 53, what God taught me, personal growth podcast, purpose driven life, discipline and faith, spiritual growth, healing journey, self-sabotage help, Christian men coaching, fatherhood podcast, fasting and prayer, spiritual warfare, health and wellness over 50, trust God and let goSupport the showTo Gain instant access to my new podcast drops subscribe here: https://youtube.com/@framingnewheightspodcast?si=An1To91cUDrk6JSBL.I.V.2.T.H.R.I.V.EHow to activate and re-brand your high-achieving self through the synthesis of mind, body and soul.

Thank you for being a listener. Kindly give us a review. Welcome to Michael Hicks: The Liv2Thrive Podcast. In this powerful episode, Faith, Fitness, and Follow-Through, Michael Hicks connects the dots between spiritual growth, physical training, and the identity work required to stay consistent when life gets loud.If you’ve been stuck in the cycle of starting strong and falling off, this episode will challenge you with a Liv2Thrive truth: you don’t rise to your goals, you fall to your identity. We talk about why vague goal-setting is often self-deception, how discipline is built through standards (not moods), and why fitness can become a form of stewardship, resilience, and worship.Michael also breaks down a trauma-informed insight many high achievers miss: for some people, constructive criticism doesn’t feel like information, it feels like danger. That sensitivity can sabotage confidence, relationships, and follow-through unless you build nervous-system capacity and learn to separate feedback from identity.🔥 In this episode you’ll learn:Why faith without follow-through becomes fantasy (and how to shift)How fitness builds more than a body, it builds self-trust and consistencyThe real reason you keep negotiating with yourself and losing momentumHow to handle constructive criticism without spiraling into shameWhy your WHY matters (identity-driven purpose) and what happens when it’s missingLiv2Thrive “Order of Operations”: Identity → Environment → Schedule → Execution📌 Sponsors & Coaching (Liv2Thrive): Want the full “how”?

It’s a daily practice that builds self-trust, resilience, and leadership.

Thank you for being a listener. Kindly give us a review. In this episode of Michael Hicks: The Liv2Thrive Podcast, Michael breaks down the real truth about triggers, why they feel so powerful, and how they quietly hijack your relationships, confidence, discipline, and peace. This isn’t “soft talk” and it’s not blame. It’s the Liv2Thrive reframe: your trigger is a signal, not a sentence.You’ll learn why being “triggered” isn’t a personality trait, how stress and unresolved identity wounds amplify your reactions, and why the goal isn’t perfect emotional control. It’s capacity: the ability to stay grounded, lead yourself, and choose truth over feelings when life pokes the bruise.Michael also speaks directly to the “strong one who’s tired,” the leader who’s overwhelmed, and the person who keeps saying “I’m fine” while internally spiraling. If you’ve been stuck in cycles of overreacting, shutting down, people-pleasing, anger, anxiety, or emotional exhaustion, this episode will challenge you and give you clarity on what’s really happening beneath the surface.In this episode, you’ll discover:What triggers actually are (signal + story + identity pressure)Why stress makes your fuse shorter and your reactions louderHow unhealed pain turns small moments into big explosionsThe difference between valid feelings and reliable truthWhy isolation, guilt, and shame keep triggers in chargeThe Liv2Thrive mindset shift that helps you respond instead of reactingIf this episode hits home, share it with someone who’s been feeling reactive, stretched thin, or disconnected from who they really are.SEO Keywords: triggers, emotional triggers, emotional regulation, mindset coaching, healing, trauma response, stress management, anxiety, anger management, relationships, nervous system, self-leadership, personal growth, boundaries, identity, faith and mindset, Liv2Thrive, Michael HicksHashtags: #Liv2Thrive #MichaelHicks #EmotionalRegulation #MindsetCoach #HealingJourney #Triggers #SelfLeadership #PersonalGrowth #Boundaries #AnxietySupport #StressManagement #FaithAndMindsetSupport the showTo Gain instant access to my new podcast drops subscribe here: https://youtube.com/@framingnewheightspodcast?si=An1To91cUDrk6JSBL.I.V.2.T.H.R.I.V.EHow to activate and re-brand your high-achieving self through the synthesis of mind, body and soul.

Thank you for being a listener. Kindly give us a review. In this powerful episode of Framing New Heights, host Michael Hicks sits down with Amy Bigelow — Empath Life Coach, Advanced Reiki Practitioner, U.S. Navy veteran, cancer survivor, and founder of Hope Embodied — for a deeply honest conversation about healing, intuition, and living unapologetically aligned.Amy shares her journey from government accounting to holistic healing, how surviving cancer reshaped her relationship with her body and faith, and why being an empath is not a weakness — it’s a superpower when properly understood and protected. Together, Michael and Amy explore what emotional burnout really looks like, how empaths absorb energy without realizing it, and why so many people feel exhausted, stuck, or disconnected from their purpose.This episode dives into the Liv2Thrive Framework (Mind, Body, Soul), discussing awareness, alignment, and identity-driven action — not surface-level motivation. You’ll hear practical insights on energetic boundaries, emotional regulation, intuition, spiritual growth, and what it truly means to stop living in the “should” paradigm and start becoming who you were designed to be.Amy also opens up about van life, resilience, faith, and the daily practices that keep her grounded while helping others heal. The conversation closes with a fun True/False segment that brings lightness, laughter, and real-life wisdom.If you’re an empath, highly sensitive person, or someone navigating burnout, emotional overload, or a spiritual awakening — this episode will meet you right where you are.🔑 Topics Covered:• Empath burnout and emotional exhaustion • Turning sensitivity into strength • Healing after trauma and illness • Energetic boundaries and self-protection • Intuition and spiritual alignment • Identity-based transformation • Living unapologetically aligned • Mind, Body, Soul healing (Liv2Thrive Framework)🔗 Resources & Links:• Learn more about Liv2Thrive Coaching • Connect with Amy Bigelow – Hope Embodied • Support your body and recovery with SuperFun Gummies CBD 👉 Get 50% off at superfungummies.com Promo Code: NewHeightsAre You An Empath Quiz?Are You An Empath?rvq7076f05g.typeform.com | Email: ([email protected])Website:  https://www.hopeembodied.visionFacebook (Hope Embodied), Instagram (@a.m.y_bigelow), TikTok (@hopeembodiedamy).Framing New Heights is hosted by Michael Hicks, founder of Liv2Thrive, where high-potential people learn to stop surviving and start becoming.

Thank you for being a listener. Kindly give us a review. You’ll buy toilet paper, paper towels, snacks, streaming subscriptions, Target runs, Amazon boxes, and late-night DoorDash without thinking twice…However, the moment it’s time to invest in your mindset, health, healing, or coaching, suddenly it’s:“I can’t afford it.”“Not right now.”“Maybe next year…”In this powerful episode of Framing New Heights, host Michael Hicks — life coach and founder of Liv2Thrive — exposes one of the biggest mindset traps holding people back:We consistently fund the trash but hesitate to invest in our own transformation.This isn’t an episode about budgeting toilet paper.It’s an honest look at why:You feel guilty spending money on yourselfYou stay stuck in cycles of burnout, overwhelm, and self-doubtYou say you want change, but your bank statement and calendar say otherwiseMichael shares real-life coaching stories (with clients’ identities protected) of high-achievers, parents, and leaders who spent years buying things that went into the garbage, while their mental health, physical health, and spiritual alignment were quietly falling apart.Through the lens of the Liv2Thrive framework, he unpacks:Why “I can’t afford it” is often really “I don’t believe I’m worth it yet”How “trash spending” feels safe because it doesn’t require growth, accountability, or identity shiftsWhy your nervous system would rather stay in a familiar struggle than risk unfamiliar freedomHow your bank account is a mirror of what you truly value and believe about yourselfYou’ll be challenged to take an honest look at:Where your money goes each monthHow much you’ve leaked on things that didn’t change your lifeWhat your life will look like in 6–12 months if nothing changesWhether you’re truly “unable” to invest in yourself — or just unconvinced that you are a safe place to investThis is a confronting but compassionate episode that invites you to stop treating yourself as the last line item on your own priority list. Michael doesn’t just talk about self-investment from a mindset lens — he ties in faith, identity, and purpose, showing how investing in your growth is often a way of partnering with what God is already trying to do in you.You’ll walk away with:A new way to look at spending vs. investingAwareness of the hidden beliefs driving your financial and life decisionsA deeper conviction that you are more valuable than your distractionsThe motivation to stop funding your numbness and start funding your becomingIf you’ve ever said:“I’m always there for everyone else, but I’m exhausted.”“I wish I had more energy, clarity, or confidence.”“I know I’m made for more, but I feel stuck.”…this episode was recorded for you.Keywords (for SEO):boundaries, investing in yourself, self worth, personal growth, Christian mindset, life coaching, Liv2Thrive, Michael Hicks, mindset shift, burnout recovery, people-pleasing, time management, emotional health, faith and mental health, transformation, coaching program, self-sabotage, money mindset, personal development podcast, Framing New HeightsSuggested Hashtags (YouTube/Shorts/Reels):#FramingNewHeights #Liv2Thrive #InvestInYourself #MindsetShift #PersonalGrowth #ChristianMindset #SelfWorth #BurnoutRecovery #LifeCoaching #TransformationJourneySupport the showTo Gain instant access to my new podcast drops subscribe here: https://youtube.com/@framingnewheightspodcast?si=An1To91cUDrk6JSBL.I.V.2.T.H.R.I.V.EHow to activate and re-brand your high-achieving self through the synthesis of mind, body and soul.
