    The $10 Trillion Trust Economy: Phil Johnson's Emotional Intelligence Insights | Ep 94

    The $10 Trillion Trust Economy: Phil Johnson's Emotional Intelligence Insights | Ep 94

    Welcome to another episode of the Social Chameleon Show, where we explore the fascinating colors of human potential. Today, we are diving deep into the realms of emotional intelligence and authentic leadership with none other than Phil Johnson—founder and CEO of the Master of Business Leadership program.

    Phil's journey is as remarkable as his mission. Born a fighter, overcoming the challenges of prematurity and dyslexia, Phil transformed his perceived disabilities into catalysts for change and pathways to success. Following a life-altering decision at the tender age of 14, after losing his mother, Phil committed to a life of service, eventually leading to the creation of his globally impactful leadership program.

    In Episode 94, Phil and I unpack the power of emotions in shaping our decisions and behaviors, discuss the invaluable role of emotional intelligence in our personal and professional lives and reveal the stark reality of its scarcity in today's fast-paced world. Apple’s focus on emotional intelligence and their undeniable success is a testament to the theory that understanding our feelings can be a foundation for innovation and change.

    Phil isn’t just talking the talk; he’s also walking the walk—quite literally on his idea-inspiring 3 a.m. walks without distractions. He generously extends an invitation to connect with him, offering free access to his audiobook and sharing insights on how to engage with his Master of Business Leadership program, a transformative experience with a proven track record of success.

    Get ready to challenge your weekly routine and fortify your emotional connections as Phil shares his expertise on emotional labor, attraction, and the hidden cost of maintaining comfort zones. As we embrace discomfort, we unlock our potential for creativity, growth, and triumph.

    Stay tuned as we reveal how to leverage your emotions to foster trust, engagement, and success at a higher level than ever before—both in life and business.

    From Adversity to Triumph: The Inspiring Journey of Tamerus Augenstein | Ep 92

    From Adversity to Triumph: The Inspiring Journey of Tamerus Augenstein | Ep 92

    Today's guest is Tamerus Augenstein, a friend who has overcome a troubled past filled with mistakes and found his purpose through fitness. His journey includes numerous physical activities, but he hit rock bottom after a breakup, leading him into substance abuse and homelessness. With guidance from mentors, he rebuilt his life and now inspires others.

    On October 16th, 2023, Tamerus posted about his one-year transformation, which caught my attention. I wanted him on the show to share his story in hopes of motivating you all. He reminds me of Marcus Aurelius' quote, "The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way."

    Tamerus had struggled with identity during tough times but turned to God for direction. This shift led him away from destructive habits towards self-improvement and discipline through fitness routines and nutrition—key steps that helped eliminate vices like late-night indulgences.

    Breaking free from others' expectations and finding your purpose can be life-changing. Once you discover what the universe or God intends for you, unnecessary habits and substances lose their appeal. You start to address the root causes of discontentment.

    Conscious congruency is key – aligning with your conscience means pretending or escaping reality through altered states is unnecessary. Identifying negative habits, defining them as weaknesses, and then building strengths in opposition transforms your life.

    Committing to self-improvement requires patience; instant gratification isn't sustainable. Instead, focus on consistent efforts over time – 100 days might sound long, however it's manageable and transformative.

    Sometimes, we chase things thinking they'll bring happiness, only to realize they don't fulfill us. Growth involves learning from these experiences and understanding that the journey matters more than the destination.

    Language shapes our reality – speak kindly to yourself, as words have internal and external power.

    Invest in simple daily books like Tamerus’. They guide your thoughts and help you reflect on personal growth. Revisiting the same book shows how far you've come, like a video journal documenting progress.

    In fitness, people overlook macros and mobility training. Macros are crucial for achieving goals, while mobility keeps joints flexible as we age. Incorporating activities like yoga or balance exercises into your routine is essential.

    For finances, cutting unnecessary expenses is key. Allocate money purposefully: some for living, business, savings, and giving back through tithing or charity.

    Finally, write down a vision of your ideal self – physically fit, financially stable, intellectually capable, etc., and then list what helps or hinders this goal. Eliminate distractions and build daily habits that bring you closer to this version of yourself.

    Deliberate Evolution: A Conversation with Dan Capello on Personal Growth and Success | Ep 91

    Deliberate Evolution: A Conversation with Dan Capello on Personal Growth and Success | Ep 91

    On this episode of Social Chameleon Show, we have a special guest, Dan Capello, who has an incredible journey of personal transformation to share with us. Dan went from burnout and being over 300 lbs. to running his first Spartan race and realizing that his family deserved more from him. As a chef, Dan found himself nourishing others but neglecting his own well-being. Now, he helps leaders and professionals regain control over their professional lives.

    During the conversation, Dan delves into the importance of being deliberate in life and shares his own weight loss journey and the trauma that led to his unhealthy habits. The episode also explores the significance of open conversations about mental health and trauma. Dan's upcoming book, "Deliberate Evolution," is a focal point of the discussion.

    The episode touches on various topics, including the importance of understanding one's values and priorities when setting goals and finding direction in life. It emphasizes the need to make rational decisions by analyzing thoughts and separating emotions from the process. Reacting without knowledge and preparation can lead to unfavorable outcomes, which is discussed in the context of a successful rowing team with a singular goal, value, and priority.

    Dan highlights the idea of evolving and becoming the person needed to achieve goals, pushing past one's potential for growth and new opportunities. He emphasizes the importance of being compassionate yet stern with oneself, using the example of not repeating past mistakes, like going off a diet and eating a whole box of donuts.



    The episode also dives into societal views on burnout, such as it being seen as a badge of honor, and the speaker's belief that many people never feel good enough. The importance of understanding values, priorities, and goals, as well as being in tune with oneself, is stressed. Distractions and the inability to handle responsibility and pressure are identified as barriers to becoming a leader.


    Enjoy the episode!
