I often refer to myself as a wisdom junkie. I love a good quote or pearl of wisdom, and it never ceases to amaze me how one thing, one thing said in just the right way at the right time can change everything – or as our guest today says, “we’re all one question away from a completely different life.” Today my guest Marc Champagne shares his insights into how to train our minds to work for us, not against us. Marc emphasizes the importance of cultivating resiliency, presence, and training our minds to be their best. He highlights the significance of habits, rituals, and intentions in supporting our journey towards our objectives. Marc stresses the importance of asking questions to enable us to go beyond the surface level and address the core of a problem. Join us for an insightful and empowering conversation that will help you enhance your mental fitness and achieve success in business and in life.
Marc Champagne unpacks the mental fitness practices and reflective questions shaping the lives of some of the most successful and brilliant thinkers in the world. He is the author of Personal Socrates, a best-selling book exploring the pointed questions that stimulate our mental fitness and teach us how to direct our internal narrative to work for us instead of against us. Marc studies the prompts and practices of legends such as Kobe Bryant, Maya Angelou, Robin Williams, James Clear, Coco Chanel, Stephen Hawking, and many others to bring clarity, intentionality, and possibility to every aspect of your life. He is the host of the top 50 ranked podcast Behind The Human and co-founded the journaling app (KYO) which reached 86.9 million people without any paid advertising. He has studied mental fitness practices for over a decade and consults with Fortune 500 companies as a mental fitness strategist and practitioner.
