The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett - Codie Sanchez: They'... (2024)

In this moment, former Navy SEAL officer, Jocko Willink, discusses how to successfully build healthy habits and routines. Jocko is an expert in this area, having established a morning routine of waking up at either 4:30 or 4:45 a.m. every day. According to Jocko, there is no universal approach to establishing a new morning routine, and instead it is about finding what works best for you. While some people are early risers, others prefer to wake up later in the morning, and the best approach is to choose the routine that you can consistently maintain. The same principle applies to creating and sustaining an exercise routine, although Jocko recommends exercising in the morning to start your day in the right direction. Although Jocko has mastered consistency in his morning and exercise routine, he acknowledges that perfection isn’t the goal. Instead, you should embrace imperfection and focus on creating consistency and discipline in your life.Listen to the full episode here -Spotify- https://g2ul0.app.link/8NrnDa9D5LbApple - https://g2ul0.app.link/JsHkcpdE5LbWatch the Episodes On Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/c/%20TheDiaryOfACEO/videosJocko: https://www.instagram.com/jockowillink/?hl=enLearn more about your ad choices.

In this moment, world-renowned trauma expert, Paul Conti discusses the different forms that trauma can take.Paul defines trauma as anything that overwhelms your coping mechanisms, which in turn changes the structure of your brain.Trauma can be broken down into 3 types: acute, chronic, or vicarious.Acute is a very evident type of trauma, and the one most people think of, this includes PTSD. Chronic trauma occurs over a longer period of time, and includes racism, bullying and neglect. Finally, vicarious trauma is the trauma people can get due to empathising with another person’s trauma and feeling their pain.Paul also outlines the hypothesis of ‘multiple hit’ trauma. This is the idea that after multiple traumas it can became too much for a person to cope with, and even a small trauma can then push a person over the edge. This hypothesis completely disproves the idea that what doesn’t kill us makes us stronger.Listen to the full episode here -Spotify- https://g2ul0.app.link/CtWAMbYKTLbApple -https://g2ul0.app.link/TIVYc9ZjNuWatch the Episodes On Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/c/%20TheDiaryOfACEO/videosPaul: https://drpaulconti.com/Learn more about your ad choices.
