In this episode we’re going to talk about the illusion of perpetual growth. What does that imbalance do to us? It can’t always be about MORE.

The Guyz pull back the curtain this week once again on some of their favorite recent Mystic MacNuggets. They encourage everyone to engage with them and share how you might have resonated with the meme. It's a great collaborative effort between them, and always a lot of fun to get a peek at the process! Here's a link to the Mystic MacNuggets talked about in this episode: https://950f91e8-6ae8-4f59-adf1-fa77ffc88a35.usrfiles.com/ugd/950f91_feb25c5697294990b18c32b9f1842e8f.pdf (https://950f91e8-6ae...

In this episode we’re going to talk about The Law of Attraction. It’s become quite a fad, and has both positive and negative press concerning it. Is it a “Law”, or a self-fulfilling prophecy? Does it work? Is it real? How do you apply “wisdom” when attempting to tap into it? Yea, let’s strap in, Stu… “Namaste, all of you beautifully, exotic cocktails… Comment on Facebook, email us, we want to more of these stories!

EPISODE-UNRAVELING In this episode we’re going to take brokenness, unraveling and cracking in our lives and re-frame them as possible gifts. I know, hard to swallow the “lemons into lemonade” perspective in the midst of some awful stuff that can happen in our lives, but hang with us. We’re not going to make everything rainbows and unicorns. However, our attitudes have a big impact on how circumstances play out in our lives. With that teaser, let’s strap in, Stu… “Namaste, all of you beautifully,...

The guys dive into a conversation about how we need to apply wisdom to evaluating the effects of the past year. Using The Church as an example, the discussion encourages us to stop pointing fingers at "life" because the blame game keeps you in victim mode. Lots of challenges have been faced, and more are to come. How can we "go to the other side" of our conventional thinking and apply wisdom to do it just a little bit better.

EPISODE-BARBARIANISM In this episode we’re going to go rogue and call you to a life of barbarianism. A life that puts aside common sense because we don’t want a common life. It’s the core of who we are, and we want to share with you why we are so passionate about cultivating a perspective that goes beyond conforming to the norm and living with your head down. Scary…yea. Exciting…yea. Hard…yea, that, too. But, hey, this is what we are all about! Stu, it’s time to pop the bubble… “Namaste, all of ...

In this episode we’re going to flesh out the idea of “the mystic”.

And, as always, our conversation will be roguish, as we weave in our core values and we’ll share a mystic MacNugget. Time for us to put on our cowls and journey into the grey… Hey Stu… “Namaste, all of you beautifully, exotic cocktails… Comment on Facebook, email us, we want to more of these st...

In this episode we elaborate on just how exotic a cocktail we are. Light and dark. It’s our nature to have this dualistic blend. We can’t help it. Question is, “How do we treat the dark?” Let’s go into the grey together and see what happens! And, as always, our conversation is roguish, as we wove in our core values, and we’ll share a mystic MacNugget.

In this episode we’re going to enter the flow of how change happens in our life, specifically about how we need to regularly “clean house” to make room for new things. It can be tough because we get pretty attached to our “stuff”. We are all “hoarders” in one way or another, and most of the time don’t even realize how we do it and what the consequences of that lifestyle are. Reality tv time! And, as always, our conversation will be roguish, as we weave in our core values and we’ll share a mystic...
