S3E9 Stop Wasting Time
What is the most valuable resource? Time. We know this, yet we often live as if time is something to be taken for granted. Guilty. Todd leads our discussion on the idea of time, and it's fascinating. From the science of time, to watchmaking, to the value of time, we cover a lot of ground in a short time - pun intended. I'm reminded that time waits for no one. Time moves forward consistently without fail, or pause, or hurry. I must be fully present in each moment, for that's all the guaranteed time I have. Aim to live a purpose-filled life that moves consistently forward and in the right direction. May you find conviction and encouragement from our discussion. And maybe put your order in for a custom, hand-made watch.PS Please check out my store via the links below for great deals on my favorite supplements, gear, and travel.

S3E8 The Problem Is Not The Problem
Speaking from personal experience, most of the time the problem I face is not actually the problem. How can that be? The problem in my face is often a symptom of the real problem. I bet you can relate.But since we live a frantic life of running a hamster wheel, we don't pause long enough to process the root of the problem. Instead, we exhaust ourselves trying to address symptom after symptom with minimal and temporary relief because we have not addressed the root cause of the problem. We offer a couple ways to think about the root cause of the problems we face, and you may not like them. They are not easy to hear, but they are true. I hope you will find conviction and encouragement from the perspective offered to help you resolve the problems in your life. It sure helps me.

S3E7 Growth Process Illustrations
Does life feel hard? Like many things are "conspiring" against you, making life difficult? You struggle to achieve your goals, or to slay the bad habit. If you nod in agreement, then this episode is for you. All of us are in a season of difficulty that weighs heavily, or we have just come out of a difficult season, or we are not far from the next difficult season. That's reality, and it can be discouraging. It sure is for me.However, when I can change my mind to reframe these difficult seasons as good and purposeful, I recognize the great benefit they are to make me a better person. In my favorite book of all time, these seasons are described in two ways that we discuss today; pruning the orchard or vineyard and sharpening the sword. I trust you will find hope and encouragement for your difficult seasons when you exercise mental fitness to reframe them in light of these powerful illustrations.

S3E6 The Practice of Perseverance
Do you get frustrated when the obstacles to your plans and goals pile up in front of you? Me too. Why does it seem like everything is so hard? We are trying to do good things. We are trying to become better and do right, but it's hard.The topic today is perseverance, which is persistence in doing something despite difficulty or delay in achieving success. The truth is that we practice perseverance all the time without realizing it. There are always obstacles to our plans and routines, and we work through them. Perseverance is part of my job; solving problems and removing obstacles to get to the goal. So then, how can we exercise mental fitness to grow in perseverance so we aren't so frustrated and discouraged at the roadblocks, detours, and mountains of obstacles in our way? That's the mission in today's episode. May you find encouragement and conviction in our conversation today.

S3E5 How it all Began - Origin Story of the Podcast and why you should care about mental fitness
What is mental fitness and why do we even care?Our mind naturally goes to the negative, especially when circumstances conspire against us, blocking our plans and goals. We can kick rocks, become discouraged, and despair, or we can exercise mental fitness: overcoming obstacles, choosing right when it's hard, conquering our mind, and believing the best. We talk about mental fitness in all aspects, as much for my benefit (because I need all the help I can get) as for anyone who might hear the message. Tune in for some practical tips about how to exercise mental fitness. May it encourage you as it does me.

S3E4 The Necessity of Repentance (not just for the "religious")
Repentance isn't a word we hear every day. And like many words these days, its definition may be clouded by modern vernacular. We'll clear that up today, so buckle up.Being sorry and repenting are NOT the same thing. We know this because we find ourselves saying sorry for the same things over and over. To repent is to turn 180 degrees and head in a different direction. It's the next stop from being sorry about a mistake. Too often, we (including myself) stop at being sorry without changing our direction, and then wonder why we continue to repeat the same mistakes. Repentance is key. Why is this important? In 1943 CS Lewis wrote, "We all want progress. But progress means getting nearer to the place where you want to be. And if you have taken a wrong turning, then to go forward does not get you any nearer. If you are on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; and in that case the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive man. There is nothing progressive about being pigheaded and refusing to admit a mistake. And I think if you look at the present state of the world, it is pretty plain that humanity has been making some big mistake. We are on the wrong road. And if that is so we must go back. Going back is the quickest way on."PS Please check out my store via the links below for great deals on my favorite supplements, gear, and travel.

S3E3 Mental Fitness and Enduring Cold Weather
Do you know the best way to dress for cold weather activity?We talk about cold weather gear and the benefits of natural fibers like wool. Sometimes less is more for dressing to be outside. We also covered some cold weather items to keep in your car. The key takeaway is that we can dress to be outside in the cold weather, so don't be so afraid of it. Doing so is a simple way to practice being uncomfortable. The mental fitness exercise to choose to be uncomfortable trains your mind to excel when the unexpected hard things in life arrive.PS Please check out my store via the links below for great deals on my favorite supplements, gear, and travel.

S3E2 How To Be More Courageous
Do you want more courage? Probably, because being afraid is not fun. "But I could never do that!" is what we say to ourselves all the time when we see some crazy video clip of a heroic rescue or insane stunt. But courage it much more thanphysical stunts, and it's something we can all grow in. Growing in courage is important too, as we discuss in this episode.Doing the right thing even when it's hard takes courage. And building the habit of doing the next right thing in the small, mundane choices of life is what builds courage.Often, the difference between winners and losers is the habit of courage - not giving up or giving in when it's hard. So be encouraged today. The small choices matter. Choose well. Build courage. PS Please check out my store via the links below for great deals on my favorite supplements, gear, and travel.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S3E1 What Discipline Means
Words matter. Defining terms accurately matters. Todd and I discuss a definition of discipline I came up with to help me. Maybe it can help you too. But having discipline is not the end. For what are you disciplined? What standard or value does your discipline pursue, because that matters a lot.For me, discipline is systems operating consistently.*Break that down:SYSTEMS - NOT goals, but the process of very small, simple inputs that are sustainable lifestyle habits.OPERATING - Habits become practically automatic, which makes doing the work of discipline easier. The operating system is on autopilot, going in the right direction. "It'sjust who I am." CONSISTENTLY - Repeated over a long period of time. No quit. No pause. Allowing compounding to build over time to multiply results.*I may have just made this up. Reminder: Being disciplined is hard.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E33 Principles and Tips from Atomic Habits
I recently presented an online class at work to review the main ideas in the popular book Atomic Habits by James Clear. In this episode, we discuss some follow-up ideas to that presentation (link to the recording is below), such as:-Identity shapes your habits and your habits shape your identity -Learn to work with how we are made (and how our brains work) instead of against our nature to build healthy habits-In a lifestyle of healthy habits there is no end goal, it’s a journey, a continual process of small improvements-We need to change the way we think about the means to achieve what we really want-Don't chase happiness (read Victor Frankl's classic Man's Search for Meaning)-Just get started doing the right thing because you are more likely to keep going. Starting is the hardest.There are thousands of applications to the principles outlined in Atomic Habits. We highly recommend it. And once you've read it, or viewed my summary class, please comment what your key take-aways are and how you are improving by implementing them.**Link to my Atomic Habits class recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?si=ijH3mKW5K2bpymJU&v=emmi-G8RBsk&feature=youtu.bePS Please check out my store via the links below for great deals on my favorite supplements, gear, and travel.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E32 The Power of Music and Why Starting Matters
In typical Unscripted fashion, we tackle two unrelated topics that are sure to sharpen you. In typical Unscripted fashion, we tackle two unrelated topics that are sure to sharpen you. We open this episode with a rabbit trail about the power of music. We've said before that words matter, and when words are put to music, our minds can't help but absorb andinternalize them. Science proves this. So then, we need to think about our thinking and be intentional about what we are letting in our mind through music, especially, but all types of media are included. What we see, hear, places we go, people we spend time with, all matter. Take the tiny action toward the thing; toward your desired behavior or habit. There is an avoidance of starting because we don't know the future and how it will turn out. We fearfailure many times, and it keeps us from starting. Exercise mental fitness first, and just start. Likely you will find that continuing is easier once you start. I know I always feel better when I exercise, even when I really don't want to. Starting is often the hardest part. Just get started, and be amazed at what happens next!Check out Skillet lead singer John Cooper's podcast https://cooperstuffpodcast.com/and website for his latest book, Wimpy Weak and Woke https://johnlcooper.com/PS Please check out my store via the links below for great deals on my favorite supplements, gear, and travel.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E31 Miracles and the Unseen World with Special Guest Dennis Rabb
My friend and mentor, Dennis Rabb, meets with me to talk about his story and how miracles have shaped his spiritual journey. Dennis has some great stories, from hitchhiking to car crashes and other wild near-death experiences. We recognize that if we are paying attention, we can see miracles happening all around us. Is it the hand of God, or something else? Do you believe in the unseen world, the supernatural? There is great interest in such things these days, as people continue to seek answers to life's big questions. Dennis shares stories of his experience with the supernatural that you might think are crazy. It's curious how people will manufacture all kinds of irrational reasons how or why such supernatural or miraculous things happen. We don't like having to operate on faith; we must have answers. We must see it to believe it. A common obstacle to having faith in God is that people demand a sign. Yet the Scriptures tell us this is not new. Jesus performed many miracles, and still the people did not believe. They thought he was crazy. Let us not be deceived; it's not another sign we need to believe in God. We need to exercise faith in the one who loves us, who died on the cross to make us right before a holy God.PS Please check out my store via the links below for great deals on my favorite supplements, gear, and travel.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E30 Living Intentionally Between Challenges
Here is the status of all people. You are either in a storm (crisis, challenge, or stressful period of life), or you just came out of one. And guess what? Another is coming. You can count on it. So what can we do when we get a moment to catch our breath between storms?Most of our waking life is on auto pilot. We live unconsciously by our habits (good and bad) and they will take us to the easy,lazy, comfortable path if we aren't convincing our mind consistently to stay on track. So what happens when life gets too comfortable? Unfortunately our nature is to become lazy. And that leads to bad outcomes. One way to combat this natural inclination to laziness is to reload our operating system every day. Renew our mind. Be aware of our thinking. We aren't as self-aware as we think. We need to regularly check in with ourselves to see if our thinking aligns with what is true, good, and right. We are like a missile that's already fired. We can't stop it, but we need to keep directing, adjusting, steering the missile to keep it on track. Everyday. If we don't, we will end up in places we don't want to be. Like at the bottom of a family sized bag of potato chips or the end of another hour wasted scrolling the newsfeed. Be intentional. Be responsible for your choices. Have a big picture view of who you're aiming to be. And don't be too hard on yourself when you slip up. Forgive yourself.Sometimes you win, sometimes you learn. Press on.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E29 Just Keep Moving
Continuing our conversation from the last episode about healthy living and exercise, we hope to encourage your healthy living journey. Tune is as we talk about:1. Practical/ functional fitness - being able to do what you want to or what you need to when called on-roll around on the floor with the grandkids-work in the yard without negative consequences on your body -enjoy the physical activities you did in your younger days2. Todd shares his morning routine, which puts him in the .01% of men his age. His routine is robust and disciplined, but only because he has worked at it for a long time.It is his lifestyle. What seems extraordinary to others is just another day at the office for him, and he's a better human for it. 3. There are many exercise options that require no equipment - see examples on my website here: https://teamquadzilla.com/fitness-challenges/4. Doing hard things like exercising prepares us for other hard things in life, and that's the magic of taking care of your body. It transfers to all other areas of your life to make you better. It matters far less what kind of workout is in your routine than actually having a routine to challenge yourself.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E27 When Communication Fails
Communication is at the heart of all healthy relationships. Oftentimes, conflicts in relationships occur due to misunderstandings in communication. What others receive in our communication may not match the intended message. In this episode, we work through this common communication breakdown with practical tips to improvecommunication, resolve conflicts, and restore relationships.We address questions like:When the recipient of our communication is offended, and the relationship is strained or broken, how should we respond? What if we are the offended party?And how can we minimize these occurrences in the future?Like many of our podcast conversations, this one is immediately applicable to me, so while I'm totally preaching to myself, I hope you will find this helpful.PS Please check out my store via the links below for great deals on my favorite supplements, gear, and travel.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E26 Confidence Favors the Prepared
Change is hard.Trying new things can be stressful. Being uncomfortable is, well, uncomfortable. In such situations, often our first response is, "I can'tdo it." Or, "That's crazy." And we talk ourselves out of taking action. That's normal because our brains are hardwired to pursue pleasure, comfort, and safety. So how can we beat this natural inclination and confidently do the new thing?For those of us who can become paralyzed by our fears of failure or loss of comfort and safety, Todd and I discuss a few ideas that will help. Such as: -Exposing yourself "safely" to the thing. Think Baby Steps.-Remembering where you come from and drawing upon similar past experiences-Learning from others' experienceWe know success favors the prepared, and confidence grows from success. Healthy confidence is a mental fitness exercise that requires action. So take action today and try the new thing. You will be better for it.PS Please check out my store via the links below for great deals on my favorite supplements, gear, and travel.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E25 The Hard Truth About Your Insecurity
Nobody likes to admit they have insecurities, but we all have them. Sometimes, we wear our insecurity like a badge and project our insecurity as humility. In this episode, Chad & Todd discuss the danger of wearing false humility as a maskfor insecurity. "Oh, I'm not good at that. I could never be this or do that," we say. But there is a huge difference between humility and insecurity. True humility is other-focused, while insecurity is self-focused. Further, humility is not the opposite of confidence, but rather true humility exudes a quiet confidence that is powerful and attractive. Tune in as they unpack this mental fitness idea that is sure to convict and sharpen you between the ears.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E24 When Life Punches You in the Face
So how can we confidently respond when faced with a difficult circumstance? Success favors the prepared, so how can we prepare for life's inevitable trouble? One answer is to ask, "What's next?" This is much better than the 'deer in the headlights' response that often hits us when we are surprised by the circumstance. It's a proactive response versus panic, despair, kicking rocks, or other passive and negative responses we often do.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E22 The Responsibility and Blessing of Family Part 2
What do I want my family to become? What do I want it to look like? How should it function? These are some questions we address today, but not in the way you might think. The truth is, tactics, tricks, and to-do's will not make your family great. We need to build ourselves into the type of person who can execute in such a way that my family responds in the positive ways we desire. This is leadership and mental fitness and it flies in the face of the common attitude most of us hold that what we have is all there is ("it is what it is") and we can't do anything else to make it better. Because we are more comfortable in the status quo, and we desire comfort and the familiar more than we realize, we (me included) don't spend very much energy taking our leadership, family life, and marriage from just ok to great. We must be intentional, do everything on purpose (especially the little things) to lead and guide our family under our leadership. Otherwise, we allow others orcircumstances to guide our family, and they will likely take our family to places we don't want to go. Be warned, trying to level up your leadership will be met with resistance. You will be tempted to give up, because leading at home is hard. Do not quit. #preachingtomyself PS Please check out my store via the links below for great deals on my favorite supplements, gear, and travel.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E21 The Responsibility and Blessing of Family Part 1
Family is important; nearly everyone will agree with that. But what are our responsibilities in the family? And why is family sometimes so hard?In this brief episode, we begin a discussion to address these questions that sharpen our convictions about family, particularly as men, husbands, and fathers. One thing we know for certain is that doing family well requires hard work and sacrifice. And if we are honest, there are times we don't feel like doing the work. What happens then is we transfer the responsibility of the family to other entities, and we reap the negative consequences. May our conversation prompt actions you can take today to love and serve your family well, trusting that the change you want to see in the world starts at home.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E20 Impostor Syndrome
"We don't make up our content as we go, we DISCOVER it as we go." - Todd Hatch Today, we discuss the idea of impostor syndrome. That's a fancy term for when we doubt our ability and often feel like a fraud and being exposed, especially when challenged to lead or do something we've never done before. But the reality isthat we are rarely "ready enough" for most anything hard. I mean, what is "ready" anyway? So are we using thisimpostor syndrome to procrastinate, or allow our fear of rejection or failure to keep us from doing the thing we need to do because we believe the lie that we aren't enough or not ready? We need to put ourselves in extraordinary situations to show our extraordinary character. We need to do the thing first. The test comes first. Then we grow and achieve through the experience. Let's take the baby step of faith, put the deception of impostor syndrome aside, and act in confidence.PS Please check out my store via the links below for great deals on my favorite supplements, gear, and travel.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E19 Understanding Procrastination
We all know procrastination is bad, hindering our growth, productivity, and mental fitness.So why do we struggle with procrastination? We know what needs to be done, but we find all the excuses to avoid and delay it. Am I right?Procrastination is stressful. While the thing we are putting off may seem stressful, it's also stressful to put it off. We end up stressing over not wanting to be stressed by the thing we are putting off. That's mental gymnastics, and it gets us nowhere.There are consequences to procrastination. Small issues not addressed will become large issues. We are mistaken to believe that we have all the time in the world, but we don't. Time doesn't wait, and we can't control it. And we don't know how much time we have. So what are we waiting for?Let's think about our thinking. Ask ourselves, "Why?" Be intentional with our time, energy, and resources. Be encouraged that you can choose against procrastination and reap the benefits of living on purpose.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E18 Striving for Contentment
We live in a time of incredible prosperity, opportunity, and choices that can be overwhelming. So it's pretty easy to find ourselves chasing after the next "thing" because there are many things to pursue. If we are honest, we chase, pursue, or strive after the thing because we expect it to satisfy our deepest desires. And when it doesn't satisfy (at least for very long), we chase after the next thing.So, is it possible to be content? And can we strive in a healthy way? I trust our discussion over this important issue will convict and encourage you. PS Please check out my store via the links below for great deals on my favorite supplements, gear, and travel.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E15 How To Deal With Pain
Everyone experiences physical pain and emotional pain. There are healthy ways to deal with pain and not so healthy ways. Pain is often (but not always) a consequence of our behavior. We discuss this principle as it pertains to our health and the choices we make about how we take care of ourselves. While not all physical pain can be avoided, we can be proactive to give ourselves the best chance to minimize it. Further, the idea of practicing hard things can prepare us for the unexpected hard things that are bound to happen in life. Emotional pain is a bit more nuanced, but there are principles we can practice to help us deal with emotional pain. We need to be careful that emotional pain does not destroy us by bitterness, un-forgiveness and believing false judgements. Forgiving has incredible power to free us from emotional pain, but it requires courage and strength. Our conversation gets cut off, but that just means you'll have to tune in again to hear more!PS Please check out my store via the links below for great deals on my favorite supplements, gear, and travel.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E14 How to be Resilient
How do we build resilience? We need to endure hard things. The best way to learn and grow is through challenge. This is why I appreciate F3 - a nationwide network of free, outdoor, peer lead, workouts for men that challenge our comfort zone. F3 meets in all weather, and the workout are meant to be hard in order to build up men of courage, resilience, and leadership to make a positive impact in our families and communities. Learn more about F3 at www.F3nation.com and www.f3toledo.com The thing about suffering, especially when suffering with others is that we can practice taking the focus off ourselves and encourage others. Getting out of your head is the path toward resilience and mental fitness. We close with a circle back on our One Word for the year and my intention to eliminate the mindless scrolling on social media. Because it's important to be accountable for our important goals and ambitions. PSPlease check out my store via the links below for great deals on my favorite supplements, gear, and travel.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E13 Trials & Temptations
Chad shares a personal story to follow up on the last episode's subject about the Chinese farmer. I find it humorous how quickly the subjects we talk about here play out in real life. We tackle the subject of trials and temptations and the power of our choices. Our nature is to blame others or circumstances for our trials and troubles, but the truth is we always have a choice in how we respond. It's not easy of course, but hopefully, our discussion will encourage you as you face the temptations and trials in your life.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E12 Lame Labels
I often say, "That's lame." when something unfortunate occurs. It's a lazy way to judge a circumstance as bad. But in the proverb of the Chinese farmer, we are challenged to withhold our judgement that a situation is good or bad in the moment, but rather accept it as is because we don't know the consequences in the future. It's an interesting thing to think about, so watch how Todd and Chad unpack this idea as it relates to our mental fitness.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E11 Who Am I Becoming?
Kicking off the new year with a hard hitting lesson on forming healthy habits with some encouragement for the common mistakes we make in deciding our goals and ambitions. Drawing on principles from Covey's Seven Habits and Clear's Atomic Habits, we discuss how our habits form our identity and vice versa. Reframing our internal dialog to say, "I'm the type of person who _____." is a powerful exercise to help us become the person we hope to be. To take the guesswork out of healthy eating, consider joining my friends at 90/10 Nutrition. They have handy tools to help you with meal planning and grocery shopping. Their library of hundreds of recipes that anyone can make simplifies what I believe is the hardest part of healthy living - eating well.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E10 The One Thing (Part 2)
Why is "the most wonderful time of the year" also very stressful? The Christmas season seems to amplify everything in life - the good and the bad. We talk about Scrooge, the Grinch, and how we can thrive through the end of the year. Then, we revisit our conversation about The One Thing from last time. It's never too late to change. We have the power to make our future great by the choices we make today. Watch to the end where Chad reveals The One Thing that is universal to humanity. The common One Thing that would make for a fulfilled life no matter who you are. Bold claim? For sure. PS Please check out my store via the links below for great deals on healthy products I love.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E9 The One Thing (part 1)
Do you ever feel overwhelmed or frustrated by the difficulty of achieving your goals? Or maybe you believe you should have some goals, but you don't know what they should be? I can easily fall into that rabbit hole and get lost. I want to grow, improve, be better, etc., but it seems like a lot of work, and I'm already very busy. Ugh. In our conversation, Todd references a book by Gary Keller called The One Thing which aims to simplify man's quest to live a fulfilling life. It’s the small things that make the biggest difference. And that's really good news, as we don't have to solve world hunger or make millions of dollars. Instead, we must find the one thing that leverages everything else in life, and focus there to find the desired success. But counterintuitively, the things that leverage the most are the quietest things. How you pay attention to the little things will compound over time to great results when you do the little things well, and consistently over time. What is the one thing that we could do that would yield the greatest results? It's not a big extraordinary thing that we must do to find the fulfilling life we desire, but rather being consistent with the simple, small things that will reap the great reward we are looking for.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E8 The Power of Why
Healthy routines don't have to be as difficult or extreme as is commonly shared online. Chad and Todd talk about their healthy routines, but more importantly, their personal and compelling reasons for sticking to them. If anyone is going to stick to healthy routines as a lifestyle, they must find their WHY. Pay attention to the tips to make your preferred healthy routines last a lifetime.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E7 The Value of Gratitude
The Thanksgiving holiday is often overlooked, as many people are more interested in Black Friday shopping and fast-forwarding to Christmas. Yet we all know the value of pausing to be thankful for all our many blessings, don't we? In this episode, we dive into the mental fitness value of gratitude and thankfulness. It's a healthy habit we should practice daily, not just on Thanksgiving Day when we are already preoccupied with Detroit Lions football and second servings of pie.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E6 The Pre-Mortem Defeats Anxiety
Do you ever create "what if" scenarios that get your mind spinning into fear and anxiety? I found myself doing this over a mountain bike race. None of my scary, negative scenarios happened. Instead, it was an incredible experience. Everyone wrestles with life's "what ifs," so what can we do about them to keep the fear and anxiety at bay? One solution is the pre-mortem. Thinking through the what-ifs to create a plan for how you will handle them, what you will do, who can help you, etc. will help to alleviate the anxiety. It's like a pre-flight checklist that can help us regain some of the control over the situation. We are essentially making advance decisions in a pre-mortem, which is also key to breaking bad habits. Then we are freed to consider the best possible outcomes for the what-ifs and rest in the confidence our positive thinking gives us.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E5 Social Media Slavery
There are chemical reactions in our brains occurring every moment we are "mindlessly" scrolling social media that absolutely affects our mood, outlook, and ultimately our behavior. Do you ever catch yourself all the way down the rabbit hole of silly cat videos when you meant to check the weather and move on? Social media is addicting, and we are more addicted to it than we think. Caution: Chad gets after parents who prematurely allow their kids to have phones while offering some encouragement that you can go against the flow of popular culture to raise kids free from the destructive consequences of internet and social media. Let's be honest, if we as adults struggle to manage our social media participation, imagine how impossible it is for young people. We must lead by example how we want our kids to live. The kids are watching us. They will do what we do. It's not just social media that binds us in slavery, but we are all slaves to something. Let's take a sober self-assessment to ensure we remain aware and in control of our appetites so they don't control us.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E4 How To Get Unstuck
Do you ever feel stuck? It's hard to reconcile the inner desire to grow and improve with the fears and anxiety about the risk of failure and rejection to do the thing we know we need to get unstuck. We easily rationalize our busyness (in what is actually meaningless distraction) as the excuse for not having the capacity to get unstuck. We are all guilty of this. Todd offers a counter-intuitive way to look at this problem that is sure to help you get unstuck.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E3 The Integrity Gap
In this episode, we draw upon life principles found in Covey's classic book The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People. We talk about the universal gap everyone has between how we know we should live and how we actually behave. We also look into some of the challenges of work, where we may have responsibility for certain outcomes but little control over the players and circumstances that affect the outcome. We are encouraged to ask good questions and offer ourselves grace for this journey of life.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S2E2 Identity
Our relationships depend on our identity - who we believe we are. In other words, the health of relationships is greatly affected by our identity. Further, our legacy and impact on the people around us requires that we know who we are. So listen in to some ideas to challenge your thinking about how you view yourself. We go deep here, like the levels of depth in the movie Inception. Let us not base our identity on our career or achievements, because when we succeed in those areas we are only left with "Now what?" and it leaves us empty. Our identity must be based in something deeper. PS Check out my shop for great deals on healthy products I love! https://ctrk.klclick.com/l/01JEPY65YF6CWJAH2WHA5WPQ6D_1

Mental Fitness Unscripted S1E12 Healthy Relationships
Have you ever said, "My job (or life) would be so much easier if I didn't have to deal with people.?" It may be true, but also impossible. People are the best and the worst, right? And sometimes both at the same time! News Flash: Relationships are difficult. We may not know how to navigate conflicts and difficulty in relationships because we don't get training on such things apart from our own experience. So how can we be a good spouse and friend when the other person is being difficult? How can we be helpful to someone in their relationships when their problems don't involve you? Part of the answer is to be better at being good to ourselves. Fix your own oxygen mask before helping another with theirs. Stop believing the lies we tell ourselves. Stop keeping score of all the hard and negative things and letting that drive our outlook. Be careful about believing the victim mentality and staying stuck there because we are used to it. Addressing conflict and difficulty in relationships is really hard in part because it makes us uncomfortable. We prefer comfort over change. We are challenged to: -have hard conversations -to set expectations and 'rules of engagement' -to believe the best possible intention in the communication from the other -to ask clarifying questions in communication to ensure messages sent are received as intended Hopefully this conversation encourages you to consider your relationships and how you can take action to make them better.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S1E11 When We Are Overwhelmed
This episode starts with a little background on how Quadzilla came to life followed by an advertisement for the Quadzilla gear shop you can find on my website. Then we get into the deep end of the idea of overwhelm and how to deal with it in a healthy way. Do you ever feel like there is way too much to do between work and home that you don't even know where to start? Surely I'm not the only one! Todd and Chad talk about where overwhelm comes from and what we can do about it. The answer may surprise you as it did me.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S1E10 Donut Syndrome
Todd and Chad discuss an excellent mental health concept inspired by donuts. Sounds delicious, right? You'll have to tune in to learn about the donut syndrome - and it's not about eating more veggies. The illustration will stick with you - and hopefully help you be more aware of the choices you make every day. When we are more aware of our choices, we will more likely make better choices. And with better choices comes goal achievement and becoming the best we can be. Donuts can help you be your best! BOOM!

Mental Fitness Unscripted S1E9 Comparison
How does a simple Dr. Seuss story teach us about mental fitness? You don't want to miss this episode where Chad and Todd dive deep into the idea of comparison. References to Shakespeare and Dr. Seuss might lead you to believe this is a literary podcast, but really they are just a couple of guys talking about the stress of comparing ourselves to others, to our younger selves, and to some ideal that may not be very realistic. Be challenged to think about your thinking about how you view yourself and others - an excellent exercise of mental fitness.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S1E8 The Value of Doing Hard Things
In the personal growth and development world, it's commonly stated to "do hard things" as a battle cry. Life is already hard enough, so why would the advice be to choose to do hard things? Our natural wiring is for survival which means we are programmed to do the bare minimum to get by, saving our energy for some future catastrophe that will require everything we have. Todd and Chad offer some ideas on the necessity of choosing hard things that should inspire you.

Mental Fitness Unscripted S1E7 Truth and Negotiating Rules
