Season 2, Episode 309: Empirical Medicine Ain’t Always Wise

In this Season 2 Finale, coming back from a bout with pneumonia, Michael talks about Empirical Wisdom by sharing his experience of nearly dying due to an Empirical MIS-diagnosis. He digs into how we make decisions and judgements (aka our “diagnosis”) based on our experience and observations – which aren’t always accurate.

getting started

Marking the end of Season 2, this episode will launch us into our Interim period between seasons, as we gear up for what’s next. The show schedule for the next couple of months will surely be a bit more sporadic, with Michael still recovering and vacations and holidays on the horizon.

Season 3 is sure to be a big hit with a new format that you, the listeners, have been asking for. New guest experts will continue to join us each week, but the episodes will be less of an interview and more of a short workshop in a particular area of conscious living. As always, we’d love your feedback by posting comments here or leave us a message on Speakpipe right on the website.

And finally, this episode is being brought to you by Meghan Neeley, the Badass Boss Mentor, who is inviting female entrepreneurs to join her and a hundred other Badass Boss women for three days of business and pleasure training in Monterey, California, on November 4th, 5th, and 6th. The first 10 ladies who respond to this post at www.BeYourOwnBaddassBoss.com will get access completely FREE. So don’t wait! Check it out and sign up today.

Season 2, Episode 306: Getting Started

In this short topical content episode, Michael dives into our blind spot around what stops us from getting started. That zone where we make up a thousand reasons why we can’t start to go after what we want – whether it’s writing a book, changing careers, or any other dream we’ve had.

“The inspiration you’re waiting for in order to get started, is on the other side of ‘starting‘… and it’s waiting for you.”  ~ Michael Neeley

The universe will rally behind you when you take action, so stop worrying about having everything be perfect, and that special moment when you are finally ready – you are ready NOW.

Also in this episode, Michael gives an update about an upcoming change to the show and the launch of his other podcasts, STOKED and Meditate On This.

Season 2, Episode 303: The Challenges with Your Self-Help Efforts

In this Best Of episode, your host, Michael Neeley will take you on a discovery of the reasons why your efforts at personal development (self-help) have fallen short or missed the mark.

getting started

While the self-improvement genre continues to grow by leaps and bounds, do you ever wonder why people keep devouring the material? Wouldn’t it be reasonable to assume that if the books (or workshops or seminars) were working, that we wouldn’t ever need to buy another self-help book again?

YET, statistics have proven otherwise.

From his work in the development of his book, The Art of Forgetting, Michael has distilled the challenge down to three basic elements, which he shares in this podcast episode.
