If you opted-in to the Free Video Series, you remember that I mentioned there are 5 Areas of Life you must master. One of them is your Financial Wellbeing.

So the first thing I have to make very clear that Financial Wellbeing isn’t about how to design your budget properly, be a good investor, or how to make a lot of money…. because if you look around, there are plenty of people who do all of those things very well and they are NOT necessarily any happier for it. 

Most of...

There’s a book I’ve read and love by John Izzo called The Five Secrets You Must Discover Before You Die - not to be confused with the book, The Top 5 Regrets of the Dying by Bronnie Ware.

John started by asking 15,000 people across the US and Canada to send him their recommendations on who they felt were the “wise elders” in their life - people who had something important to teach us.

Of almost 1000 names that were suggested, he identified 235 people who...

Everyone knows the basics in terms of how to get healthy - eat better and exercise more. But usually just knowing that doesn’t really make a difference.

It's easier said than done right?

In order to truly hack your physical health and wellbeing, you’ve got to know a bit about behavioral science. In other words, understanding human behavior, how we operate, how we think and feel - enables us to basically “trick” ourselves or our minds into doing the things we want.

Happiness? Wellbeing? Wellness? What’s the difference?

Well, there’s a reason why this site is called the “Wellbeing” hacker.

There’s a ton of information out there that uses all of these terms, but it’s important to know the difference… and why hacking your wellbeing is the way to go.

So, first, about happiness.

This is a sticky one because who doesn’t like to talk about happiness right?

So let me shed some light on why you actually should...

With all of this buzz about finding our “purpose”, there’s one thing that’s been missing from the conversation that is very important.

And that is… the power of context.

There are 3 levels of work - a job, a career, or your purpose. Let’s first distinguish between the 3 before we move on.

A job is something you do out of necessity. It is purely a means to an end. You show up just for the paycheck, and for the most part, you look forward to the day coming...

As of 2011, the #1 item on kids' Christmas lists was.... The iPad.

So, it goes without saying that we might need a bit of a wake-up call in terms of how to spend our money. We don’t have a clear understanding of how to truly use money as a tool to enhance our quality of life. Too often, we have been led to believe that more money is the end goal - but it’s really only a means to an end. And luckily, there’s now a ton of science to prove it.

Here’s how I define an 'aha moment’….

a tiny instance in time where we realize something that drastically impacts and alters the probable and predictable path of our lives. 

These aha moments help us realize what truly matters to us in life. They tell us when to make a change, or give us the solution to that big problem we’ve been trying to solve. 

But, a true aha moment can be hard to come by. The most authentic 'ahas' are induced by a near-death...
