First though, I want to say a huge THANK YOU for listening, for sharing and for engaging through reviews, etc. with the Positive University Podcast. I love being able to chat with some of the best of the best and share their wisdom with you.
Here are 7 of the top episodes (based on downloads) and something I learned from each...
#1 WINNING AND WHAT TRULY MATTERS
with Tony Bennet- Head coach of the University of Virginia men’s basketball team who won the 2019 NCAA championship. Web | iTunes
Lesson:If you learn to use it right, the adversity, it will buy you a ticket to a place you couldn't have gone any other way.
#2 THE MINDSET TO OVERCOME
with Matthew McConaughey - Academy Award-winning actor known for his roles in iconic movies such as Dazed and Confused, We Are Marshall, The Lincoln Lawyer, The Wedding Planner, Dallas Buyers Club and so many more.
Lesson: The surprising mental practices that Matthew uses to stay positive in the face of challenges. You've just got to hear it yourself. : )
#3 RESTORING HEALTH, GLYPHOSATE, GUT HEALTH
with Zach Bush, M.D. - Triple board certified physician and one of the most compelling medical minds working to improve human health today.
Lesson: Your gut health is central to your overall health. Don't overlook it. It turns out "Gut Health" is very important since 80% of our immune system is in our gut. The key to gut health is our microbiome (the bacteria in our gut) that helps digest food, strengthens and heals the gut lining, and enhances our immune system. Many of our microbiomes have been compromised due to antibiotics, chemicals in our food supply, sugar, stress, etc.
#4 CREATING A PATTERN OF GREATNESS
with P.J. Fleck, Head Football Coach at the University of Minnesota.
Lesson: Row the Boat - It’s a never give up mantra. The more you give, the more you serve… the bigger your boat gets so you can carry and impact more people.
#5 HOW TO CREATE A CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM
with Nick Nurse, Head Coach of the NBA champions, the Toronto Raptors.
Lesson: Your past is preparing you for your future. While many see Nick as an overnight success, he spent years of working in his craft of being a coach. So, you could say he’s an overnight success 27 years in the making (and you could be too!).
#6 GREATNESS, TEAM BUILDING AND CULTURE
with Dabo Swinney, Head Coach of Clemson University Football. Web | iTunes
Lesson: When I asked Dabo if he was an overachiever he said, "No. I’m an over believer." If you want success, create an attitude of belief in yourself and your team.
#7 BE THE COFFEE BEAN
with Damon West, How a Former College QB Sentenced to Life in Prison Transformed His World. Web | iTunes
Lesson: When placed in the pot an Egg is hardened. A Carrot is weakened. Don’t be like either. Instead be like the Coffee Bean. It transforms the water into Coffee. You have the power inside you to transform your environment on the outside.
Thanks again!
We hope the Positive University Podcast continues to add value to you and others.
