  • 642: Why Everyone Should Consider Writing a Book with Chandler Bolt
    2026/06/24

    Writing a book is a goal that many people talk about for years, but very few actually follow through. We convince ourselves that we'll get started when life slows down, and before you know it, years have gone by with a great idea just sitting on the back burner.

    As someone whose life was completely transformed by writing The Miracle Morning book series, I truly believe a book can become one of the most valuable assets you ever create. It can amplify your impact, preserve your legacy, and open doors that would never have opened otherwise.

    Today, I'm joined by my good friend Chandler Bolt, the founder of SelfPublishing.com and author of Published.: The Proven Path From Blank Page To 10,000 Copies Sold. Chandler has helped thousands of authors write and publish their books and, in the process, has scaled his company into an eight-figure business.

    In our conversation, Chandler explains why writing a book can become the best business card you'll ever create, how to leverage your book to grow your business, and how he's using AI to help authors write better books and build better companies.

  • 641: 93 Habits That Will Transform Your Life (Starting Day One) with Jon Gordon
    2026/06/17
    Implementing a new habit rarely feels life-changing at first. Going for a morning walk and getting a few minutes of sunlight, or visualizing checking something off a to-do list, might sound like activities that barely move the needle. Yet over time, those small actions often become the difference between feeling stuck and becoming the person you're capable of being. And after reading the first chapter of Jon Gordon's newest book, The Power of Positive Habits, I felt the benefits from that one simple action in the first 5 minutes. Jon is the bestselling author of 33 books, including The Energy Bus, which has sold more than 3.5 million copies worldwide. But before becoming one of the most respected voices in leadership and personal development, Jon struggled with negativity to the point that his wife told him their marriage wouldn't survive unless he changed. That wake-up call led him on a journey that transformed his mindset, career, and life. In our conversation, Jon shares the habits that reduce friction and make it easier to follow through, why becoming your own greatest encourager can change everything, and how letting go of the past can unlock the mental blocks that prevent you from becoming the best version of yourself.

  • 640: What Happens When You Die? A Man Who's Died 3 Times Tells You with Dannion Brinkley
    2026/06/10
    What happens after you die? It's a question that has fascinated humanity for thousands of years. Today's guest has an answer that might surprise you. Dannion Brinkley has been clinically dead multiple times, and what he learned from those experiences led him to one extraordinary conclusion: nobody ever dies. Dannion is the bestselling author of Saved by the Light and Secrets of the Light, a hospice volunteer with nearly 50 years of service, and one of the world's most well-known near-death experience survivors. After being struck by lightning in 1975 and clinically dead for 28 minutes, Dannion says he experienced what he calls a panoramic life review that completely transformed the course of his life. Dannion has devoted his life to helping people face death without fear. He has spent more than 34,000 hours at the bedside of veterans in the VA, provided hospice support to over 2,000 people during their final days, and helped build one of the largest end-of-life volunteer programs for veterans, the Brinkley Center Foundation. In our conversation, Dannion shares what he has learned from decades spent helping people navigate life's final transition, why he believes no one truly dies, what happens during the panoramic life review, and how we can live in a way that brings more love, service, and meaning to the people around us.

  • 639: How To Become Irreplaceable In The Age Of AI with Jeff Burningham
    2026/06/03
    AI is evolving faster than most of us can comprehend. And for many people, it's creating a very real fear about the future. If machines can outthink us and eventually outwork us, what does that mean for our careers, our purpose, and even our identity? Perhaps an even better question is: what does it mean to be human in the age of AI? Today, I'm joined by Jeff Burningham. Jeff is an entrepreneur, investor, and author who has built more than a dozen companies valued at over a billion dollars and recently released his powerful new book, The Last Book Written by a Human: Becoming Wise in the Age of AI. Unlike most conversations about AI that focus on productivity, efficiency, or making more money, Jeff explores something much deeper: how AI can actually help humanity reconnect with wisdom, presence, empathy, and the qualities that make us uniquely human. In our conversation, Jeff explains why AI is not just a technological disruption, but a spiritual challenge and a mirror reflecting humanity back to itself. We talk about fear, optimism, consciousness, emotional regulation, and why wisdom—not intelligence—may become the most valuable human trait moving forward. If you've felt uncertain or overwhelmed about where humanity is headed, this episode will challenge the way you think about both AI and yourself. KEY TAKEAWAYS Why AI Forces Us To Reevaluate HumanityWhy AI Is A Spiritual Challenge For HumanityThe Human Qualities AI Can Never ReplicateJeff Addresses The Fears People Have About AIFear vs. Optimism In The Age Of AIUsing AI As A Bridge Back To Human ConnectionHow To Use AI Wisely And MindfullyThe Real Challenge Facing Humanity Right NowThe Choice Is To Focus On Who You Choose To BeSimple Questions That Reveal Your AwarenessWhat Jeff Hopes Readers Take Away From His BookThe Conversation About AI Humanity Needs To Have Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit MiracleMorning.com/639 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

  • 638: How To Be The Parent Your Kids Deserve with Mike & Lindsay McCarthy
    2026/05/27
    One of the biggest challenges parents face today is creating a real connection with their kids in a world where phones and screens dominate so much of their attention. And here's where it really hits home. We only have "18 summers to create lasting connections" with our kids before they become adults, so why not make the most of it? Today, I'm joined by two of my favorite people, Mike and Lindsay McCarthy. Mike and Lindsay are the co-authors of The Miracle Morning for Parents and Families and the Miracle Morning for Parents and Families Playbook. Mike is also the CEO and co-founder of the Gobundance mastermind and co-created Fambundance with his wife, Lindsay. Together, they've spent more than a decade helping families create stronger relationships, healthier communication, and intentional family meetings and habits through events and their family legacy framework. In our conversation, we talk about the systems and values that have helped them create a deeply connected family culture, how intentional parenting evolves as your kids grow older, and why creating shared experiences and family traditions can shape your children long after they leave home.

  • 637: How to Stop Procrastinating for Good with Jon Acuff
    2026/05/13
    The truth is, almost everyone struggles with procrastination. It keeps us stuck in unhealthy patterns, convinces us to wait for the "perfect" time to take action, and gets in the way of what we truly want. Whether it's starting a business, improving your health, writing a book, or having a difficult conversation, procrastination often becomes a roadblock between who we are and who we want to become. Today, I'm joined by Jon Acuff. Jon is an 11-time NYT bestselling author, a top-100 INC keynote speaker, and has just released his newest book, Procrastination Proof. Jon has spent years studying mindset, perfectionism, and the habits that keep people from taking action to achieve their biggest goals. His ability to simplify complicated ideas into practical frameworks has helped millions of people create meaningful change in their personal and professional lives. In our conversation, Jon explains why procrastination isn't actually a character flaw or a sign of laziness, but a "solution" we use to avoid discomfort, fear, uncertainty, and criticism. We unpack the mindset patterns that keep people stuck, the hidden reasons why we procrastinate, and why so many people mistakenly believe they "work best under pressure." Jon also shares a 4-step framework that makes someone "procrastination proof," along with practical ways to overcome perfectionism and finally stop delaying the life you truly want. If you've ever felt stuck between your intentions and your actions, this episode will help you close that gap and start moving forward.

  • 636: The Relationship Advice Nobody Gives You with Christine Hassler and Stefanos Sifandos
    2026/05/06
    If you love your partner but still feel disconnected, misunderstood, or frustrated by recurring issues in your relationship or marriage, you're not alone. Today's episode is about bridging the gap between the relationship you have and the one you want. Today, I'm joined by my friends Christine Hassler and Stefanos Sifandos, a married couple and master relationship coaches with over 30 years of combined experience helping people heal relationship wounds, break the cycles that keep showing up in their love lives, and build the kind of relationship most people have stopped believing is possible. Stefanos is the author of a powerful new book, Tuned In and Turned On, which offers a path to self-healing, deeper connection, and true love that lasts. Christine brings the feminine perspective and spiritual psychology, while Stefanos brings deep work around masculinity, trauma, and what he calls Sacred Union. In our conversation, we discussed why relationships can be so challenging, even when both people are committed to growth. Christine and Stefanos also explain why attempting to change your partner often creates more disconnection, how unmet childhood needs are projected onto your relationship, and why true repair matters more than avoiding conflict in the first place.

Whether it's your marriage, friendships, or work, that lack of deep connection can quietly affect your overall health and happiness. Today, I'm joined by my friend Michael Trainer, who has a new book out called Resonance: The Art and Science of Human Connection. Michael is one of the most fascinating people I've ever met, and his work is centered around helping people create deeper, more aligned relationships in every area of life. From co-creating the Global Citizen Festival, which has helped raise over $40 billion to defeat extreme poverty, to studying human connection across cultures and the neuroscience behind it, Michael brings a unique blend of real-world experience and science-based insights. In our conversation, we discussed the loneliness epidemic and why so many people feel disconnected despite having greater access to communication than ever before. Michael shares what it means to create "resonance" in your relationships, how the people you surround yourself with directly influence your emotional and physical well-being, and practical ways to become someone who attracts and builds powerful, life-giving connections. We also explore how to identify the relationships that energize you versus the ones that drain you, and how taking intentional actions can completely transform the quality of your relationships and your life.
