Radical Responsibility Podcast

What if your anxiety isn’t something to fix, but something to listen to?In this conversation with Dr. Richard Schwartz, the founder of Internal Family Systems (IFS), we explore a powerful and relieving idea: the mind is made up of many parts, not just one. Even the parts of us that feel anxious, controlling, or overwhelmed are not broken or bad, they are protectors shaped by past experiences, doing their best to keep us safe.Dr. Schwartz explains how anxiety often arises when vulnerable “exiled” parts carrying old wounds, fear, or shame are pushed away. To prevent that pain from surfacing, protective parts step in through panic, perfectionism, control, or distraction. Through the IFS lens, these patterns aren’t character flaws, they are intelligent survival strategies born from pain.Together, we explore how healing doesn’t come from fighting or fixing these parts, but from meeting them with curiosity, compassion, and Self-leadership. The Self is the calm, grounded, compassionate core within all of us, untouched by trauma. When we lead from this place, anxious parts can finally soften, release their burdens, and guide us back to a deeper sense of wholeness.● How all parts hold wisdom and purpose● The natural states of the mind and how parts form● The qualities of the Self and why it is central to healing● How unburdening anxious parts creates neurological change● How wholeness emerges when all parts are welcomedWe Also Discuss: [0:00:00] Welcome to The Radical Responsibility Podcast[0:01:20] The fuel behind Dr. Richard’s career[0:04:58] Technique to deal with panic attacks[0:07:24] Understanding the natural states of the mind[0:09:20] “Exiles” and “Protectors”[0:12:51] Characteristics of the “Self”  [0:17:22] What happens when trauma is not present[0:19:14] Working with your parts[0:23:50] Unburdening the anxious parts impacts you neurologically[0:30:45] Cultivating the quality of self-leadership[0:33:37] Where to begin the work of connecting with self Become a Heart Mind Community Member and access ALL our past and future summits plus a thriving private community: https://www.heartmind.co/podcastofferDownload your free Neuro-Somatic Mindfulness E-Book by Dr. Fleet Maull: https://www.heartmind.co/nsm-podcastOrder “Radical Responsibility” by Fleet Maull and get $1,088 in free bonuses today including courses and challenges: https://www.radicalresponsibilitybook.com/Connect with Dr. Richard Schwartz:Internal Family Systems Website: https://ifs-institute.com/Join our Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/hmisummitcommunity  Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heartmindinstituteFollow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/heartmindinstitute  Produced by Evolved Podcasting - www.evolvedpodcasting.com

What if the very challenges you’re trying to avoid are the ones designed to grow you the most?In this inspiring conversation with Dr. Srikumar Rao, we explore the deeper dimensions of the entrepreneurial mindset, one rooted in acceptance, adaptability, and inner peace amidst uncertainty. Dr. Rao invites us to see life and business not as problems to solve but as journeys to experience fully, where unpredictability isn’t the enemy, it’s the teacher.We dive into how embracing uncertainty can actually free us from stress and open us to creativity and flow. Dr. Rao shares practical wisdom on transforming setbacks into opportunities, reframing “failures” as life’s feedback, and learning to trust that the universe is ultimately friendly. When we stop fighting reality and begin responding to it with awareness and intention, we don’t just build better businesses, we build better selves.This episode is a powerful reminder that the heart of entrepreneurship isn’t control, it’s surrender, growth, and presence.We Also Discuss:● How unpredictability is part of the design● Dissolving unnecessary stress through acceptance ● How challenges hold hidden opportunities● Why setbacks are invitations for growth● The reason the universe is friendly and not against you● Creating resilience through surrender[0:00:00] Welcome to The Radical Responsibility Podcast [0:02:04] Mindset and applying it to entrepreneurship[0:04:32] How to eliminate debilitating stress.[0:09:09] Recognizing opportunities with challenges.[0:14:24] Your emotional makeup and its importance[0:18:21] Service orientation in entrepreneurship.[0:22:24] Maintaining a strong sense of mission and vision.[0:25:40] How to work with our fears in a constructive way.[0:29:12] Is the universe friendly?[0:35:56] The fear of failure and how to handle it.[0:43:29] Inner peace amid challenges.[0:50:07] 2 fundamental mindset shifts to begin working on.Become a Heart Mind Community Member and access ALL our past and future summits plus a thriving private community: https://www.heartmind.co/podcastofferDownload your free Neuro-Somatic Mindfulness E-Book by Dr. Fleet Maull: www.heartmind.co/nsm-podcastOrder “Radical Responsibility” by Fleet Maull and get $1,088 in free bonuses today including courses and challenges: www.radicalresponsibilitybook.comConnect with Dr. Srikumar Rao:Website: https://www.theraoinstitute.com/Emali: [email protected] Check out The Quest For Personal Mastery | Dr. Srikumar Rao: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLcTZ8xyOL50Hyk7XFHJDUX0TuQVeDKBu-&themeRefresh=1Join our Facebook group: www.facebook.com/groups/hmisummitcommunity  Follow us on Instagram: www.instagram.com/heartmindinstituteFollow us on Facebook: www.facebook.com/heartmindinstitute  Produced by Evolved Podcasting - https://www.evolvedpodcasting.com/

What if the biggest barrier to growing your business isn’t your strategy, but your state of mind?In this powerful conversation with Peter Sage, we explore how the real work of scaling a business begins on the inside. Peter’s journey, from high-level success to deep personal transformation, reveals that mindset, emotional maturity, and self-awareness aren’t optional traits for entrepreneurs… they’re the foundation for sustainable growth.I was struck by Peter’s ability to reframe adversity into expansion. When life handed him challenges that could have broken his spirit, he instead used them as fuel for insight and contribution. We talk about what it takes to evolve from survival mode to an abundance mindset, how emotional maturity shapes leadership, and why scaling your business ultimately means scaling yourself.This conversation is for anyone who’s reached that edge where strategy isn’t enough, and who’s ready to grow beyond old limitations into a mindset that truly matches their vision.We Also Discuss:● Why growth always begins with mindset.● Adversity becoming a teacher if we let it.● Why leadership requires emotional maturity.● The fear of scarcity blocking creative flow.● The dangers of tying self-worth to net worth.Key Timestamps: [0:00:00] Welcome to The Radical Responsibility Podcast[0:05:28] The connection between personal development and business success.[0:14:51] Shifting to a mindset of abundance.[0:20:42] Money as a logging indicator of the value you’re putting out.[0:22:53] How to keep the flow of money going?[0:25:25] Dealing and overcoming setbacks in life and business.[0:37:48] 2 non-negotiable criteria for hiring people.[0:43:59] Operational excellence in building a scalable company.Become a Heart Mind Community Member and access ALL our past and future summits plus a thriving private community: https://www.heartmind.co/podcastofferDownload your free Neuro-Somatic Mindfulness E-Book by Dr. Fleet Maull: www.heartmind.co/nsm-podcastOrder “Radical Responsibility” by Fleet Maull and get $1,088 in free bonuses today including courses and challenges: www.radicalresponsibilitybook.comConnect with Peter Sage:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therealpetersage/?hl=enYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7-i0Cfhv42n1BVfrFuDcPA?themeRefresh=1Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Peter-Sage/100044204765430/Join our Facebook group: www.facebook.com/groups/hmisummitcommunity  Follow us on Instagram: www.instagram.com/heartmindinstituteFollow us on Facebook: www.facebook.com/heartmindinstitute  Produced by Evolved Podcasting - https://www.evolvedpodcasting.com/

What if true happiness had nothing to do with what you achieve, what you own, or who approves of you?In this episode, I sit down with Marci Shimoff, a bestselling author and pioneer in the field of happiness and well-being. Marci shares her powerful perspective on what she calls happiness for no reason, an inner state of peace and joy that isn’t dependent on outside circumstances. She reminds us that this kind of happiness isn’t about plastering on a smile or avoiding life’s challenges, but about cultivating a deep inner foundation that allows us to thrive, even when things get tough.Together, we explore how each of us can step out of the endless chase for happiness “out there” and begin building the habits of mind, heart, and spirit that create lasting fulfillment. Marci offers both wisdom and practical tools that can shift how we live, love, and lead. If you’ve ever wondered why success alone doesn’t bring happiness, or how to sustain joy in the midst of life’s ups and downs, this conversation will open new possibilities for you.We Also Discuss: ● The shift from chasing happiness outside to cultivating it within● Building daily habits that increase joy and resilience● Embracing personal responsibility for your own well-being● Surrounding yourself with relationships that uplift and nourish● Discovering why external success often feels empty without inner peace● Stepping into a new way of living with happiness as your natural stateKey Timestamps[0:00:00] Welcome to The Radical Responsibility Podcast[0:05:07] What does happiness for no reason mean?[0:08:30] Are our circumstances really the reason for happiness?[0:10:38] The ONLY difference between the happy and unhappy people.[0:13:32] Happiness habits influence our lives.[0:23:23] Limiting core beliefs and happiness.[0:31:42] Finding your happiness amid global suffering.[0:36:38] How to develop resilience[0:40:41] Living in the miracle zone.[0:47:11] Manifestation and energetic vibrations.Become a Heart Mind Community Member and access ALL our past and future summits plus a thriving private community: https://www.heartmind.co/podcastofferDownload your free Neuro-Somatic Mindfulness E-Book by Dr. Fleet Maull: www.heartmind.co/nsm-podcastOrder “Radical Responsibility” by Fleet Maull and get $1,088 in free bonuses today including courses and challenges: www.radicalresponsibilitybook.comConnect with Marci Shimoff:Know your miracle superpower, visit: https://youryearofmiracles.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/marcishimoffofficial/?hl=enVisit her YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/MarciShimoffJoin our Facebook group: www.facebook.com/groups/hmisummitcommunity  Follow us on Instagram: www.instagram.com/heartmindinstituteFollow us on Facebook: www.facebook.com/heartmindinstituteProduced by Evolved Podcasting - www.evolvedpodcasting.com

What would it take to bring psychedelic-assisted therapies fully into the mainstream of medicine?In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Jeannie Fontana to explore the vital importance of creating a state funding agency for psychedelic-assisted therapies. We draw from the groundbreaking California model for stem cell research, which transformed an underfunded, controversial area into a thriving, well-regulated field that now produces FDA-approved treatments.Dr. Fontana and I explore this vision called the T.R.E.A.T. initiative (Treatments, Research, Education, Access, and Therapies) could shape a future where healing with psychedelics is safe, ethical, and available to all.This conversation is about more than just funding—it’s about building a movement that integrates science, ethics, and compassion to transform mental health care for generations to come.We Also Discuss: ● The lessons from California’s stem cell research success● How dedicated funding accelerates breakthroughs into real therapies● The T.R.E.A.T. vision in building infrastructure and access● Setting high standards of safety and ethics in therapy● The collaboration between science and indigenous wisdom● Reducing stigma through education and public discourseKey Timestamps:[0:00:00] Welcome to The Radical Responsibility Podcast.[0:02:06] Finding therapy for loved ones that actually work.[0:07:54] How psychedelic-assisted therapy caught Jeannie’s attention.[0:08:58] Are psychedelics for everybody?[0:13:42] T-R-E-A-T (Treatments, Research, Education, Access, & Therapies)[0:24:29] Safety in psychedelic therapy.[0:29:17] The need for good psychedelic therapy facilitators.[0:37:11]  Indigenous plant medicine traditions.[0:45:07] Empowering persons to have agency over their well-being.[0:51:28] Ketamine-assisted therapy clinics concerns.[1:06:36] Shift in psychedelics awareness.Become a Heart Mind Community Member and access ALL our past and future summits plus a thriving private community: https://www.heartmind.co/podcastofferDownload your free Neuro-Somatic Mindfulness E-Book by Dr. Fleet Maull: https://www.heartmind.co/nsm-podcastOrder “Radical Responsibility” by Fleet Maull and get $1,088 in free bonuses today including courses and challenges: https://www.radicalresponsibilitybook.comConnect with Dr. Jeannie Fontana:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeannie-moller-fontana-md-phd-b2088797/Join our Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/hmisummitcommunity  Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heartmindinstituteFollow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/heartmindinstituteProduced by Evolved Podcasting - https://www.evolvedpodcasting.com
