In episode 10, Mark teaches Kristen the very tough concept of “spring cleaning” our relationships and the theoretical pruning of relationships that aren’t supporting you becoming your best self and achieving your goals. He discusses WHO to cut out, HOW to do it, and defines the difference between “toxic” relationships and relationships that aren’t necessarily “negative,” but still keep you from moving forward to your dream. We also...

Does the idea of "power" make you cringe? In this first episode of our 5 episode series on power, Mark shows us how to change our mindset on "power", how to gain more autonomy over your life, and how to begin viewing yourself as a BRAND, rather than as a job title or a service. We share examples of how powerful icons have made their brands into platforms, and how you can do that exact same thing on a smaller lev...

This week, we begin to unravel the step-by-step process of getting UN-STUCK. We also discuss why there are so many LAYOFFS happening right now, the truth behind the job security illusion, and how to value yourself as a BRAND, rather than a commodity. 

We know there are a lot of ways to be “stuck”, so we cast a wide net with our advice, breaking it down for multiple job and career scenarios. No matter what your path you’re ...

In Episode 4, we dive into how to know you’re STUCK. We discuss the obvious and most intense signs such as burn out, but also the sneakier signs that make us rationalize our unhappiness and send us down that slippery auto-pilot slope. Join Mark and Kristen as they discuss all of this and more, including how to realize you’re following someone else’s MoonShot instead of yours and how to begin thinking about creating your own, NEW pa...

This week, we break down the falsely held belief that work should always equal sacrifice, how to know you're “working against the grain” in your life and why just “being good” at something shouldn’t be the only reason to stay in a job that doesn’t fulfill you. Kristen takes us on her own journey of deviating from her creative path and how believing the false notion that following your passion is “selfish” ultimately led her to...

In episode 2, we discuss what it means and feels like to be STUCK. We reframe the idea of “quitting” and how taking risks can change your life for the better. We also share how we got unstuck with our podcast, and Mark shares his own deeply personal experience with being stuck, hitting his “rock bottom” and how he pivoted in his life to follow his passion. Finally, we end with discussing why RIGHT NOW is the perfect time to take th...
