HowieDoinIt — a podcast about resilience

These are strange times. Each day feels like a week, and each week feels like a month. And while it can all feel daunting at times, it’s also an opportunity to take stock of your life and make important changes, and support others who want to do the same. If we’re going to get through these times successfully, we must support each other emotionally, physically and spiritually as much as we can. In today’s episode, I catch up with Brenda on where I’ve been and what I’ve been doing as the world navigates a pandemic, enforced quarantines and a whole lot of craziness that can feel...

HowieDoinIt — a podcast about resilience

Brandon Steiner is no stranger to adversity. Early in his career, he opened a popular NYC sports club at a time when television-watching inside restaurants was unheard of. The first night he opened the doors to his club, he had zero patrons. The second night, he had one. “And that’s because I begged someone standing outside to please come in and give us a try,” he says half-joking. Three months later, the club had throngs of people waiting to get inside and some of the world’s most famous athletes seated at tables. In today’s episode, I interview Brandon Steiner, an author, speaker,...

HowieDoinIt — a podcast about resilience

When Kinsey Grant first appeared on no one could have predicted the radical changes the planet would undergo just a few months later as a result of Covid-19. It’s hard to say which changes will stick and which will fall away, but one thing’s for sure: how we live and how we do business around the world has indeed changed. And it will continue to change for years to come. Like most significant world events, we will come to describe life in terms of before COVID-19 and life after COVID-19.

HowieDoinIt — a podcast about resilience

For the last seven years, J.C. Doornick begins his daily Facebook Live show by greeting his viewers with this quippy intro: “Hi, my name is Dr. J.C. Doornick. I’m a recovering bullshit artist and I’ve been clean for 14 years.” On the outside, the former chiropractor was the picture of success – a beautiful family, thriving business and all the accolades anyone could want. On the inside, his life was a mess: his marriage was in shambles, his business was making him miserable and he had packed on so much weight he was deemed clinically obese. Once an accomplished athlete and driven...

In today’s episode, Steve talks about the skills needed to survive — even thrive — in extreme...

From the outside looking in, Tamsin Astor had a picture perfect life — a successful career, a beautiful home, and three happy, healthy children. Then, 2008 it all came crashing down.

In today’s episode, author, speaker and habits expert Tamsin Astor, talks about navigating the uncertainty and despair that ensued when her young son was diagnosed with cancer, and later the death of a close relative. Tamsin shares the healthy habits that helped her overcome some of the most painful and difficult moments of her life — and why you should stop following what people say you “should” do, and follow your own North Star instead.

Tamsin has a Ph.D. in neuroscience and psychology, and combines her Western science training with the wisdom of Eastern practices, including meditation and yoga, to help people organize their habits, create their vision and transform their mindset so they have more time for what they want and need. She helps time-strapped, overwhelmed and overcommitted high-achievers make more room in their lives for fun, while also taking care of business.
