What happens when you trade security for authenticity? Tommy Carbasho, creator of Forbidden Chronicles podcast and author of "How to Not Suck as a Human," shares his transformative journey from corporate stability to purpose-driven entrepreneurship.

Tommy redefines courage in refreshingly practical terms: "Courage is not doing something well and keep doing it." It's about persisting through struggles, continuing when you're not naturally talented, and refusing to let fear dictate your path. His decision to quit a secure management position wasn't made lightly—it followed months of internal debate about sacrificing security for happiness. Yet this leap of faith led to creating platforms that uplift others rather than just building personal success.

At the heart of Tommy's philosophy lies radical kindness. From letting someone with fewer items go ahead in the checkout line to picking up litter that isn't yours, these seemingly small actions create profound ripple effects. He shares Jack Canfield's transformative practice: perform three random acts of kindness daily without telling anyone, then watch how it changes not just others' experiences but your entire life perspective. The universe returns what you put out—whether positive or negative.

Finding Happiness Again: A Neuroscience-Backed Guide To Reclaiming Joy w/ Linda Shively EP 185

What if the biggest obstacles to your happiness aren’t life’s circumstances but the dragons in your mind?

In this powerful episode, neuroscience and mindset expert Linda Shively shares her extraordinary journey from unimaginable tragedy to becoming a leading joy advocate, helping others reclaim their happiness.

Linda opens up about her most courageous moment—escaping an abusive relationship with her severely disabled three-year-old daughter, only to face the heartbreaking loss of that child two weeks later. Choosing to honor her daughter’s joyful spirit rather than remain in grief’s darkness, Linda built a neuroscience-backed framework to understand and overcome the mental patterns that sabotage our happiness.

From Pro Football Dreams To Finding True Identity w/ Luke Beastall EP 184

What happens when everything that defined you is suddenly stripped away? Luke Beastall knows this feeling intimately. After dedicating 17 years to football, his entire identity was wrapped up in being "the footballer" everyone expected would make it big. When that dream ended at age 22, he faced a profound identity crisis that left him depressed and directionless.

In this deeply personal conversation, Luke shares how he found the courage to completely reinvent himself—first as a fitness trainer on cruise ships traveling the world, and later as a coach helping others navigate their own transitions. The freedom of being somewhere no one knew his past allowed him to rediscover who he truly was beyond the expectations others had placed on him.

Luke speaks candidly about experiencing a second identity crisis years later when his successful fitness business consumed him. He describes mindset as "a muscle in the gym" that requires consistent training to grow stronger. The turning point came when he stopped asking "why me?" and instead took ownership of creating something new.
