If your brain bolts like an untrained puppy every time you try to focus, this episode is the leash that snaps it back into calm, controlled power.

Host Lisa Urbanski sits down with Phyllis Coletta, author of How to Be a Good Dog, to turn the dog command “stay” into a no-BS mental training system you can use in real life—emails, meetings, anxiety, and all.

You’ll learn:

🐶 Why “stay” is the hardest command for your mind—and how to finally master it

🧠 Simple mind-training moves that beat digital distraction and constant busyness

⚡ How to find the tiny gap between thoughts and turn it into your superpower

🐕 How to spot the “dog breed” of your mind today—and upgrade it over time

🧩 Daily sit-and-stay habits that lower drama and crank up peace on demand

If your thoughts are running the show, this episode hands you the playbook to put you back in charge.
