SCIENCE • SOUL • SUCCESS Episode Title: Who Can Help Me? Today’s question brings us into the heart of strength — not the kind you fake, but the kind you build. Because real self-care isn’t isolation… it’s alignment. It’s knowing who helps you stay grounded, lifted, supported, and sane. In this 3-minute Suite Spot reset, we explore why support systems matter — emotionally, spiritually, and biologically. You’ll hear how connection lowers stress chemicals, strengthens resilien...
SCIENCE • SOUL • SUCCESS Episode Title: What Am I Avoiding? Today’s question is the one most people skip — and skipping it is exactly why they stay stuck. Avoidance doesn’t make you weak. It makes you human. But facing what you’ve been dodging? That’s where real power comes back online. In this 3-minute Suite Spot reset, we unpack how avoidance drains the brain, tightens the nervous system, and quietly steals your focus. And more importantly, you’ll hear how naming th...
SCIENCE • SOUL • SUCCESS Episode Title: What Will I Try Next? Today’s question is where courage stops being an idea… and starts becoming a practice. Because trust doesn’t grow from perfection. It grows from one tiny, shaky, brave attempt. In this 3-minute Suite Spot reset, we break down why movement — even small movement — rewires your brain for confidence. You’ll hear how trying activates your dopamine system, how fear shrinks once you step into it, and how God meets you on the o...
The Seven Life Changing Questions 3/7: Pick Your Target. #WinItAllWednesday Episode Title: What Do I Actually Want? Today’s question is simple… but it might be the most life-shifting one of the week. Because you can’t win what you haven’t named. And most people are grinding toward goals they never truly chose. In this 3-minute Suite Spot reset, we slow down to identify the real desire — the one under the noise, under the pressure, under the expectations. You’ll hear how clarity ac...
SCIENCE • SOUL • SUCCESSThe Seven Life Changing Questions 2/7: Name the Block. #TakeActionTuesday Episode Title: What’s Really Holding Me Back? Today we step into the second question of the series — and this is where things get real. Because you can’t take action if you don’t confront the thing that’s quietly stopping you. In this 3-minute Suite Spot reset, we explore why most barriers aren’t external — they’re internal. You’ll hear how unspoken fears, old stories, hidden pressure, and ...
SCIENCE • SOUL • SUCCESSTHE SUITE SPOT PRESENTS: MAKING MOVES MONDAY Where am I now? Today’s episode kicks off our weeklong series, The Seven Life-Changing Questions.

In this 3-minute reset, you’ll hear why self-location is the foundation of every high-performance shift, how your brain responds to honest awareness, a...
G Science Soul Success What if happiness isn’t something you add… but something you finally see? Today we close our Gratitude Unlocked journey by pairing Robert Emmons’ research with a Slowdown Sunday rhythm designed to shift gratitude from an insight… to a way of being. Stillness and gratitude work beautifully together. They quiet the mental noise. They soften the default mode network. They reveal the fullness that was there all along. An...
Science Soul Success When the week leaves your nerves buzzing and your mind racing, you don’t need another chore. You need a switch you can flip. And gratitude is one of the cleanest ones we’ve got. A single moment of thanks can settle the body faster than most people realize. Not magic— biology. Dr. Robert Emmons’ research shows it clearly: consistent gratitude can raise happiness by 25%, strengthen the immune system, lower inflam...
Science Soul Success Fridays can feel like a headwind. Focus thins. Energy bargains with you. Stress tries to run the last play. So today we go back to something simple and powerful: gratitude as performance science. Not soft. Not sentimental. Strategic. Dr. Robert Emmons’ work shows that thankfulness reconnects you to meaning, steadies your nervous system, and helps you cross the finish line with clarity instead of panic. And as K...
Science Soul Success The loudest voice after a mistake is almost never the fairest one. It’s the inner critic with a megaphone. No nuance. No memory. Just noise. Today we quiet that spiral. Not by pretending the mistake didn’t happen… but by rewriting what it means. Gratitude helps you do that. Not the soft version — the grounded, science-backed, performance version. Gratitude rewrites meaning without rewriting history. It tu...
Science Soul Success What if the fastest way to sharpen your competitive edge isn’t grinding harder… but stopping the constant comparison loop? Because comparison doesn’t motivate. It muddies your focus. It steals your lane. And it drains your confidence before the work even starts. Today we flip that. We use gratitude as a competitive reset — a way to lock back into your strengths, your progress, your game. Robert Emmons talks about it in Thanks:...
Science Soul Success Stuck isn’t always a motivation issue. Sometimes it’s a visibility issue. Stress tightens your focus until all you can see is what you don’t have. And when your mind is busy scanning for failure, your body braces like it expects to lose. So today we flip the lens. We use gratitude as recognition — quick, grounded, tactical. A way to spot what’s helping you right now so you can move again with some rhythm in your step. Here’s your three-s...
Science Soul Success Pressure doesn’t just test you. It shrinks your world. Your vision tightens. Everything feels louder than it is. So today we start with one simple move: Use gratitude as a reset switch. Not the soft kind. The performance kind. Dr. Robert Emmons’ research in Thanks shows this clearly. A five-second gratitude check can quiet the nervous system. Your prefrontal cortex steadies. Your insula stops firing off false alarms. The “he...
