760. The One Thing Left That is Real w/ Maria Menounos & Keven Undergaro

Originally Aired: September 14, 2020 Do you feel like you're stuck in someone else's dream? Or maybe you feel like you're stuck in the WRONG dream. Joy strategist @GraceHarry can relate. After a mega-successful career in the music industry, Grace took a step back and realized she still hadn't unlocked the truth of her own joy. Since then, she's pivoted and works as a celebrated joy strategist to powerful C-suite execs and pop culture icons like #Common. Grace says that "happiness is ethereal, but JOY is your birthright." By implementing strategies like "finding your starting 5" and viewing all of your relationships as partnerships to accomplish the goals that we want, we can unlock the life we've always wanted to live.

Originally Aired: November 11, 2020 How does one of the world's best quarterbacks, @RussellWilson, keep his cool under pressure?Mostly because of @TrevorMoawad, his mental conditioning coach, and one of the world's most sought-after experts, particularly in high-performance athletics. Trevor is a pioneer in the "neutral thinking" thought space, and stresses the importance of avoiding negativity, monitoring our self-talk, and taking pragmatic action when faced with challenges. And how about this one: "So much of what defines a great performer is not what they’re willing to do, it’s what they’re willing NOT to do."

Originally Aired: September 28, 2020 Are you feeling emotionally and spiritually lost? @DrAnitaPhillips has exactly what you need. Dr. Anita Phillips is a world-renowned expert lauded for her unique and powerful blend of spirituality and mental health advocacy. For centuries, spiritual communities and psychology communities have shunned each other, but Dr. Anita sees both spirituality and mental health as having inextricable ties. For Dr. Anita, our mental health is directly tied to our beliefs about purpose, life, and deity. In a time where the world is in crisis, our beliefs about where we go after we leave this world, for example, have profound conscious and subconscious effects on our mental health. She provides POWERFUL excessive to help us get to these beliefs so that we can start having a foundation on which to anchor emotional wellness. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/better-together-w-maria/support

Hay Kweenz we fooled ‘em again!! It’s another edition of Regular Guy Friday, this week Kev and Kelsey bring you the wild tale of Kev’s past 90s adventures with “Grady ‘Lobster Boy’ Styles!!” The discussion leads to talks about the sociopaths, vampires and little monsters all around us, and the serious tole they take on our individual wellbeing. Kels shares her own personal adventures with mini monsters, upper endoscopies and the fun of anesthesia. Kelsey then reads a powerful passage by @Chimamanda_Adichie with regards to narcissism and behaviors today, and the duo discuss how it’s an inditement of all vs one generation, and how the passage should be used as a tool for all of us to self evaluate and improve..."what I find increasingly troubling: a cold-blooded grasping, a hunger to take and take and take, but never give; a massive sense of entitlement; an inability to show gratitude..." OUCH! Heavy and powerful stuff. BUT we of course end the episode reminding ourselves and everyone else that we are all still Kweens and how summer can be your moment to reset, pause or just blow steam: just be aware of whatever option you choose. Bye Beeeetches! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/better-together-w-maria/support

Originally Aired: September 10, 2020 You've seen his videos, you know his voice, and chances are he's helped you CRUSH IT in your own life... There's a reason everyone knows @GaryVee! He is one of the most popular and respected media gurus and online personalities in the world, and he practices what he preaches. GaryVee has built multiple companies, brands, and perhaps most impressively a community of millions of followers who look to him for wisdom about self-esteem, achieving our goals, and as he says: CRUSHING IT. As the CEO of VaynerX media, Gary has consulted with companies like Chase, Toyota, and Craft to teach them how to survive and thrive in a digital world, and his corporate advice can help you too. But Gary is more than just a sharp media mind. He's a humble Russian immigrant who admits in today's conversation that his biggest fear isn't failure, or backpedaling, it's the fear of creating hurdles in his own life to prevent him from moving forward. More than money, fame, or success, Gary values freedom, and he says it's been the single biggest asset to building his companies. Also, for you sports fans, Gary and I go AT IT on the show in a Jets v. Patriots showdown. I HOPE we're still friends after that one… --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/better-together-w-maria/support

YouTube: https://youtu.be/Gdl0u3XHbCk Originally Aired: July 13, 2020 Feeling like you've hit your rock bottom? 3-Time NYT Bestselling author @GlennonDoyle can relate. After a severe alcohol addiction, a crippling fight w/ bulimia, and a broken marriage, she's reinvigorated herself with yet another lauded book "UNTAMED" - where she teaches women everywhere including me, how to finally listen to that inner voice and chase the life we actually want to live. There's a reason Oprah Winfrey is producing a scripted film based on her life. Glennon believes that women are tamed to shrink and disappear, rather than embrace the wild, beautiful lives that live inside each and every one us. Really, her message is simple: "Disappoint as many people as you can to avoid disappointing yourself." --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/better-together-w-maria/support
