This is episode 468 Joseph Anew | Becoming an Intuitive Warrior: Developing Courage to Face Obstacles + Why Vibrant Health Starts in the Heart (RUNGA).
Why Are So Many of Us Unhappy?
Earlier this year, I attended an event here in Austin called RUNGA, which was a foundational turning point in my own wellness journey, and I sense that if you're like me, it could be the same turning point in yours.
You see, this is a big moment in human history, right now here in America and across the world, because so many human beings have been already killed but they're walking around pretending to be alive.
Let me expand on this. Why do you think that so many people are unhappy and unfulfilled in this world? Maybe you feel that way yourself or you know someone who you can sense it in them?
Take a deep breath with me and ask yourself: When did I start to make choices or when did I start to walk down a path of ignoring my intuition, ignoring my soul, ignoring myself?
Maybe you put your dreams on the back burner or justify doing something that you don't like because you care so much and love the people you're providing for?
That's honorable, but at some point in life your soul starts to pay the price, and it's an unbelievable price.
Joseph's Exploration of His Own Soul Contract
Then one day you wake up and you’ve had enough, and this is exactly what my guest and my brother Joseph decided at some point this year.
He had had enough of carrying on the legacy of his previous first and last name, so he changed it. He had had enough of being wounded by his past so he committed to changing it.
And he had obstacles in his path and he chose to climb them, and I think this is going to inspire you at your deepest core and inspire you to potentially meet me live in Austin for the RUNGA event.
In this podcast, you're going to walk away with every single part of your Wellness Pentagon nourished: the mental, physical, financial, spiritual, and emotional well-being.
Once you've heard it from Joseph today, you can never unhear it, and you can begin to unlearn all the ways that your parents, God bless them, or your ancestors, potentially ingrained belief in you that blunted your own intuition that made you stop believing you were an intuitive warrior.

- And why and how we choose our life partners, how Joseph's wife, Amelia, came into his life to help him do the end of work that transformed him into the man here today.
