ABOUT THIS EPISODE
If you have ever tried to think your way out of a hard season and felt more tired, this one is for you. Sana and Steve Barton explore thinking versus awareness, and whether awareness is a mindset shift or a doorway to something larger.
Through simple metaphors, from a stadium of consciousness to a nail in the foot, Steve offers a lighter way to meet fear, self-doubt, guilt and shame, with humor along the way.
About the Guest:
Steve Barton is a high-performance coach and creator of The Game of Ten®, a framework for quieting inner noise. The host’s introduction cites 47 years in business and a family floral company grown from about $200,000 to $2 million.
Key Takeaways:
- Thinking and awareness differ. Quiet the mind, then let limiting thoughts go instead of analyzing them.
- Everyone has consciousness. Steve pictures a stadium, from golf ball to open sky, that expands as beliefs loosen.
- Pain stuffed down stays. Like a nail in the foot, facing it is where healing begins.
- Humor is the seventh sense: play with people, never at their expense.
- Control your inner peace, not outcomes. Set big goals, then release how and when.
