A month ago, I went to Rythmia – an all-inclusive luxury resort in Liberia, Costa Rica, and drank ayahuasca – an ancient psychedelic concoction used for healing for thousands of years. It was one of the toughest experiences of my life. But also one of the most profound too.
I’ve been feeling on top of the world after my week at Rythmia. I gained awareness of patterns of thought and behavior that kept me stuck. Now I feel like a new man.
My communication is better. My relationships are better. My health is better, and even the need to reward myself with food has improved. I’m on my way to getting super lean again!
I’m not saying this to tell you that you need to go to Rhytmia. But to tell you that there’s hope if you’ve been feeling stuck in patterns that aren’t serving you.
So, if you’ve been rewarding yourself with food, alcohol, or shopping and feel you want to change this behavior for good, you need to do something different.
A new diet, workout, or self-help book ain’t gonna cut it.
What experience can you sign up for to take you out of your comfort zone?
What event, activity, or situation can you put yourself into in the next week or two to challenge yourself to get OUT of your comfort zone and into the feeling of being your best self?

1-How To Add More Steps Into Your Day
If you’re too swamped with meetings to add more steps into your daily routine, here’s how I help my clients add movement into their day.
- Ditch the Chair! Stand during calls. Those legs were made for more than just walking.
- Go For a Walk Find opportunities to walk more. Walk to go get coffee or park far from the entrance to the supermarket.
- Stairs are Your Best Friend: stop waiting for the elevator and walk a few flights of stairs even if you have to stop and take the elevator on a higher floor.
- Calls on the Move: Use your call time to walk. Burn calories while sealing deals or connecting with family and friends.
Remember, every step counts. Aim for at least 7k steps per day.
2-My #1 Fat Loss Secret That You Can Start Applying Today
Prioritize lean protein in your meals to help you lose fat while holding onto your muscles.
After all, you want to look leaner, not like you’re starving to death. It’s designed to simultaneously make you stay full longer, reduce hunger, etc.
Here’s what you can start doing:
- Breakfast: Swap the sugary cereal for egg whites: egg white frittata or spinach egg white omelet.
- Lunch: Ditch the deli meats. Opt for grilled chicken, turkey, sirloin, or tenderloin.
- Dinner: Think tuna, shrimp, salmon, white fish, and chicken breast, fish.
- Snack: Fat-free Greek yogurt or a protein shake.

3-How To Lower Your Stress Levels In 3 Minutes
Let’s talk about stress.
If you’re like my busy executive and entrepreneur clients, high stress is a weekly experience.
But did you know you can reduce that stress in just 3 minutes? That’s right. Deep breathing is the key.
Find a quiet spot. Either lay down with your eyes closed if you can (best) or sit up straight in a chair. Then, take a slow, deep breath through your nose for a count of 5. Then, exhale for a count of 5. Don’t hold your breath as this increases stress levels. Repeat this 5-second in/5-seconds out pattern for 3 minutes.
This breathing technique stimulates your vagus nerve and calms you down.
So next time you feel that crunch, remember to breathe your way to relaxation.
