    Ep 182: Doing the Right Thing When Everything Seems Wrong
    Aug 31 2022
    I know at times, it seems like the people doing the wrong thing are constantly being rewarded for their bad behavior. Does that mean you just give up and join them? Why keep fighting the good fight and get punished for it, you may ask? I firmly believe good always trumps evil as long as the good continues to fight. We can't give up we have to keep fighting and doing the right thing. As I always say, once you cross that line, there is no going back.

  • Ep 181: Warrior Call – Dealing with Rising Military Suicide Rates

    Ep 181: Warrior Call – Dealing with Rising Military Suicide Rates
    Aug 24 2022
    Frank Larkin is a former Navy SEAL and so was his son Ryan, who died by suicide in 2017. As part of his commitment to Troops First and its Warrior Call initiative, Larkin says he wants to educate people about undiagnosed physical injuries to the brain that warriors may suffer during their service, as with Ryan, that can spark a downward spiral. Larkin has served as a Navy SEAL, as a Maryland State Trooper-Flight Paramedic, as a special agent for 21 years in the U.S. Secret Service rising to deputy assistant director and chief technology officer, and for nearly four years as the U.S. Senate Sergeant at Arms. He also served as a senior leader in the Department of Defense's Joint Improvised Explosive Device Defeat Organization, the combat support agency tasked with countering IED's and extremist organizations employing them against U.S. forces, and in senior positions at Raytheon Corp., Lockheed Martin Corp. and SAP National Security Services. He volunteers as a firefighter-paramedic with the Annapolis, Maryland, Fire Department. About the Warrior Call organization: WHO IS WARRIOR CALL: We are a network of former active-duty service members and veterans, their friends and families whose aim is to save lives and curtail suicides among those who served the nation.WHAT WE DO: We spur greater connection. We make calls to warriors -- to veterans and service members who may be isolated and disconnected from services. We steer them to services. We encourage all Americans to make these warrior calls. Together, we save lives. WHY WARRIOR CALL IS ESSENTIAL: Many of those who are suffering are not seeking help or treatment, thus reinforcing the need for a call to these warriors from a former battle buddy, friend or family member. Up to two-thirds of veterans who take their own lives have had no contact with the Department of Veterans Affairs. The COVID pandemic has only increased isolation and disconnection. According to the VA, researchers have identified social isolation as "arguably the strongest and most reliable predictor of suicidal ideation, [suicide] attempts and lethal suicidal behavior." Invisible wounds linked to an underlying and undiagnosed traumatic brain injury can mirror many mental health conditions, underscoring the need to connect with service members and veterans and steer them to services. The rapid unraveling of Afghanistan has spurred anguish and frustration among those who served there. HOW YOU CAN HELP – MAKE A WARRIOR CALL: Whether you are a veteran, active-duty service member, national guard, family member or friend, you can make a difference by connecting with someone who is wearing or who has worn the uniform. Connecting can facilitate honest dialogue, create a desire to stay in contact and help define a viable path forward.Here’s what to do: 1) Make a call and connection to a warrior. 2) Have an honest conversation. See how they are doing. 3) Connect them with Vets4Warriors, a clearinghouse for resources. Their contact information is 1-855-838- 8255 and www.vets4warriors.com Social Media links: Twitter: @warriorcallday Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/warriorcallday Episode Resources: Help support the show by donating here: https://thesimplelifenow.com/product-category/consulting/#donate Show Sponsors which helps keep this show free! *Use special promo code WATPVT15 with link below for We The People Holsters and get 15% off your order!  * Use special promo code AFFILTRX15 with the link below for TRX Training Systems and get 15% off your order! https://thesimplelifenow.com/wethepeople/https://thesimplelifenow.com/mitoredlight/https://thesimplelifenow.com/relaxsaunas/https://thesimplelifenow.com/mypatriotsupply/https://thesimplelifenow.com/trx-training/https://thesimplelifenow.com/acre-gold/https://thesimplelifenow.com/berkeyfilters/https://thesimplelifenow.

  • Ep 180: How To be Frugal but Not Cheap

    Ep 180: How To be Frugal but Not Cheap
    Aug 17 2022
    Today, I'm joined by two special guests who are also involved in the movement of living your best life, your way. Jen Smith and Jill Sirianni teach people how to get their debt and personal finances in order and have a fabulous podcast called Frugal Friends. Today, we discuss their personal journeys to financial freedom, and how you can accomplish the same. Just like everything in life, change is not easy, but the cherry pie waiting for you at the end is well worth it. A bit about Jen: I got in touch with my inner frugal when my husband Travis and I paid off $78,000 of debt in less than two years. I’ve always been frugal but it used to be because I had the mindset that I was broke. It’s been a journey to realize that being frugal isn’t about necessity but being a better steward of your time and resources. I’m always learning to become a more intentional spender and I like to help bring my friends along with me. Whether it’s through my blog, Modern Frugality, through my books: The No-Spend Challenge Guide and Meal Planning on a Budget, and now the Frugal Friends podcast! A bit about Jill: Frugality runs in my veins! For me, this means digging for treasure at thrift stores and spending Saturday mornings at yard sales, but it also means living simply, paying off debt, and having a blast with my husband, Eric. Our most notable frugal decision was that time we decided to live in a motorhome to save on expenses and pay off student loans. We own our own remodeling business, and I am a social worker by day, so I understand the budget struggle! With my DIY skills and frugal knowledge, I hope to help you in your journey, and I look forward to learning with you along the way!

  • Ep 179: Why Everyone Should Lift Weights

    Ep 179: Why Everyone Should Lift Weights
    Aug 10 2022
    Most people today relate weight lifting with body building and looking like the Hulk. Nothing could be further from the truth! What if I was to tell you every able-bodied human should be lifting weights on a regular basis. That is right, you need to be lifting, no matter your sex or age... period. Today, Matt Reynolds of Barbell Logic and I dig into the reasons if you are not incorporating lifting weights/strength training for optimal health, you are doing it wrong. Matt Reynolds is the founder & CEO of Barbell Logic Online Coaching https://barbell-logic.com/ & host of the Barbell Logic podcast. At Barbell Logic our primary focus is on simple, hard, effective strength training to improve quality-of-life. We’re not your typical fitness influencer focused on taking pics of ourselves and posting them on IG.  Rather, we’ve forged a culture of “voluntary hardship” among our clients, and we believe this culture has a tremendous refining impact on their lives. Certainly strength training isn’t the only way to refine oneself through voluntary hardship, but we do believe it’s one of the most general, most efficient, and works well for nearly everyone.  Episode Resources: Get 10% off and free shipping off your entire order at www.thesimplelifenow.com with coupon code: podcast10 Support The Simple Life Podcast and enjoy it ad free by being a member and subscriber at: https://thesimplelifenow.com/register/the-simple-life-membership/ Show Sponsors which helps keep this show free! *Use special promo code WATPVT15 with link below for We The People Holsters and get 15% off your order!  * Use special promo code AFFILTRX15 with the link below for TRX Training Systems and get 15% off your order! * Or you can see all the show sponsors in one convenient place here: https://thesimplelifenow.com/sponsors * See what Gary is reading and his recommended reading list here: https://thesimplelifenow.com/reading/ * Donate to The Simple Life cause: https://thesimplelifenow.com/product-category/consulting/#donate * Where to send your questions: contact@thesimplelifenow.com  * The Simple Life Rumble page: https://rumble.com/thesimplelifenow * The Simple Life Website: https://www.thesimplelifenow.com  * Make sure to signup and be a member of The Simple Life Insider's Circle at: https://www.thesimplelifenow.com/the-simple-life/ https://thesimplelifenow.com/wethepeople/https://thesimplelifenow.com/mitoredlight/https://thesimplelifenow.com/relaxsaunas/https://thesimplelifenow.com/mypatriotsupply/https://thesimplelifenow.com/trx-training/https://thesimplelifenow.com/acre-gold/https://thesimplelifenow.com/berkeyfilters/https://thesimplelifenow.com/wholelattelove/https://thesimplelifenow.com/kuiu/

    Ep 178: Creativity and Mental Health
    Aug 3 2022
    Make sure to check out my new Simple Life University Course - How to Organize Your Life: https://thesimplelifenow.com/course/how-to-organize-your-life/ I firmly believe keeping your mind and body busy is the key to mental wellness. Sure, things go bad at times, but working through them is the key. A great way to keep yourself busy, and sharp, both mentally and physically, is to be creative; and what I mean is to create things. Not long ago everyone was a farmer, played a musical instrument, painted, wrote, or drew... where have those times gone? We now blitz ourselves with useless information via the internet, smart phone, and tv, while doing absolutely nothing productive. I'm in the middle of another big creative project, and I want to show you how you can do the same, and cancel our daily noise, with beautiful creativity.

Having a cluttered home and a disorganized lifestyle impacts your mental health, physical well-being, and drains your finances. It will amaze you the stories I’ve heard from people who lived messy, disorganized lives who changed completely for the better because they built better habits and easier methods of handling and figuring out what to do with their personal belongings. I cannot stress this enough, as someone that lived the 9-5 rat race lifestyle and was a slave to material things, I understand completely what it is like to feel like your stuff owns you. You don’t have to struggle though, you can organize more than just your things, you can organize your life.

    Get 10% off and free shipping off your entire order at www.thesimplelifenow.com with coupon code: podcast10 Make sure to check out my book and learn how to do more with less: The Simple Life Guide to Decluttering Your Life https://thesimplelifenow.com/product/guide-to-decluttering-your-life-softcover/ Yes, we live in a crazy world today, but are we self-inflicting a lot of our own pain? I would say 100% yes! I always say: "focus on the things you can change and ignore the rest." But a lot of people today don't know what to truly focus on to make their life simpler and better.  Instead of focusing on what is really important in our life, we focus on the periphery that, in most cases, has nothing to do with us. We get sucked into the vortex of more is better, more noise and people complaining, another pair of shoes, another nic-nac, another car we can't afford... it just goes on and on and on. So what is the answer? Today I will dig into how to gain freedom by eliminating the things that are not important. Remember, we are only here for a limited time, so make the best of it. Topics Discussed: * My simple yet effective morning routine to decompress. * Are you less free or only more confined by your voluntary behavior. * How to be truly free in a world of chaos and strife. * How to focus on the things that are important and ignore the rest. * Why decluttering your mind is the key to sanity and freedom. * A simple way to get started. * Why most people have no clue what individual freedom truly is. * What is free will and why there seems to be a war against it. * Being a contrarian - when everyone is zigging you zag.
