Today on The Not-So-Serious Life, Jason and Steve answer Tracy’s question:

“What do you do when stepping out of your comfort zone creates huge amounts of stress?”

Today on The Not-So-Serious Life, Jason and Steve answer Kim’s question:

Can you see how the people around you may be trying to either project or protect (and how neither of those things are really YOUR business)?

Episode 21 – How do you feel about Manifestos? Do either of you have one?

Today on The Not-So-Serious Life, Jason and Steve answer Faith’s question:

How do you feel about Manifestos? Do either of you have one?

Tune in today to Episode 21 of TNSSL to hear Steve’s thoughts on the power of having our personal internal commitments (constitution) written down AND the question he shares to ask yourself before undertaking this or any other exercise like it.
(Psuedo-spoiler, the question is not “does everyone else say I SHOULD do it?”)

Plus somehow Bobby Brown becomes a part of the discussion?!

Then JG pulls back the curtain (don’t worry, he is fully dressed) and shares his personal “WHY” statement and the super simple way he keeps it front of mind to guide him on who he is being and what he is doing!

How about you?

Leave us a comment below and tell us what you do to keep your values and commitments front of mind and how you stay on track.  Do you have something written down or some other physical reminder of what you are working towards or who you need to be in order to live your ideal life?

Episode 19 – How do you make a romantic relationship work when you hold opposing perspectives of the world?

Today on The Not-So-Serious Life, Jason and Steve answer the viewer question:

“How do you make a romantic relationship work when you hold opposing perspectives of the world?”

Whether this was a legitimate question or just an attempt to land us in the doghouse, today’s question brings JG and Steve’s MUCH better halves (Alicia and Kathy, respectively) into the spotlight!

Steve shares how he welcomes Kathy’s opposing views and JG shares the 3-step “gentle” process that Alicia used to help transform him from a helpless, angry victim into a powerful, self-leading owner!

Time for you to weigh in!

How do you work (or play) with a significant other who has opposing views or philosophies from yours?  Does anything we shared today seem like it would be helpful in your personal relationships?

Also, to our Inner Circle members, share pictures of the SWAG BAGS we sent you on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or wherever else you hang out online (and tag us) so JG can finally find out what surprises Steve put in the packages!

Episode 16 – How can I stop disagreements with my spouse from becoming blaming matches?

Today on The Not-So-Serious Life, Jason and Steve answer the viewer question:

“Anytime my spouse and I have a disagreement, it turns into a blaming match. How can I stop that?”

Steve’s celebrity status may be going to his head after a recent breakfast outing he had BUT we are going to try to stay on track for Episode 16 of The Not-So-Serious Life!

Since “Why won’t you just listen to me?!?!?” and “Calm Down!!” don’t seem to work in diffusing conflict, maybe this episode will help you have productive, relationship-building “disagreements” with your spouse (and other people in your life) a little more gracefully and effectively.

JG talks about what he believes blame really means, how it can be a gift and the question he asks himself when in a potentially emotional convo with his wife to slow him down and bring him back to reality.

Steve also shares a really powerful reframe of blame and how to go from what we think we need to do in those situations to a place of love, understanding and a Not-So-Serious interpretation of the blame.

Plus, stay tuned til the end to see Jason’s Not-So-Serious version of absolute freedom!

Do you ever get into blaming matches with your significant other or co-workers or friends?
