Catch the recording on Spotify!
You say you want change. You mean it. Yet you keep walking the same worn path, replaying the same worries and repeating the same routines that leave you drained.
So why do familiar patterns feel safer than happiness? Can negativity become a habit? And how do you catch a self-defeating pattern before it catches you?
This week, happiness practitioner Marty Jalove of Master Happiness and Karen Holmes of Lifeline for Healing, a pattern and behavior coach who uses coaching and hypnosis, dig into why we cling to what makes us miserable. Then they bring home the BACON: five simple ways to break free, from the hidden beliefs behind your behavior to the new practices that make joy stick.
Here's the hopeful part: patterns were learned, which means they can be unlearned.
Your old path had its turn. Now it's time to choose a new one.

Let's be honest, none of us like to picture the worst day of our lives.
The fire. The layoff. The accident far from home. So we look away. We tell ourselves it won't happen to us.
But here's the flip: preparation isn't fear. Preparation is power.
In this episode, "Picturing and Practising The Worst Case Scenarios," I'll walk you through a simple, five-step Bacon framework. Five easy moves to get ready at home, at work, and at play.
We won't live scared, sad, or angry. We'll live ready, and ready gives you something priceless back: control.
Because the whole point of picturing the hard days? Protecting the happy ones.
So bring your coffee and your courage. Tune in, take one step, and go find your reasons to be happy, no matter what.

The 3 Types of Friends
According to Aristotle
Think about the friend who laughs with you until your sides ache. Now think about the one who shows up at midnight when life falls apart. Different people, right? More than 2,000 years ago, Aristotle explained exactly why.
In this episode, we unpack his timeless idea: friendship comes in three flavors. There are friends of utility, who serve a purpose. Friends of pleasure, who bring the joy. And that rare, precious few, friends of virtue, who see your soul and make you better.
But here's the beautiful part. Friendships aren't frozen. They grow, shift, and sometimes surprise us by deepening into something we never expected. We'll walk through how that happens, and share five essential takeaways using a simple framework we call BACON.
I'm joined by my favorite person, Kristi (and maybe a friend???), for a warm, honest, and heartfelt conversation.
So grab your coffee and settle in. Listen to the episode now, and let's talk about the people who make life worth living.
