96. Optimize Your Soul with Adam Siddiq

Description

My guest on today's podcast is Adam Siddiq who believes in using energetic discipline to optimize your soul, life and emotions to achieve peak performance and leave a positive impact on the world. If you're listening to this show, you're probably the type of person who's enlightened enough to know that the healthy response to being cut off in traffic isn't to succumb to shallow road rage, but rather to plug into forgiveness, understanding, and calm. But let's be realistic: that's far easier said than done. Adam brings incredible value to our conversation today, partly in his explanation of how he approaches this sort of everyday aggravating situation from an elevated response rather than letting himself fall into a reactive state.
