• Mindset Matters - Episode #193 - Partner With Your Ego: How to Stop Battling Yourself

  In this powerful episode of the Mindset Matters podcast, Patrick and Steffany take a deep dive into a topic that touches every aspect of our daily lives: the ego. Titled Partner With Your Ego, this conversation explores what it really means to stop battling your ego and instead learn how to understand it, work with it and grow through it. Patrick opens by reframing the ego as neither friend nor enemy but as a lifelong companion. Together, they explore insights from leading thinkers like Eckhart Tolle, Dr. Gabor Maté, Michael Singer, Carl Jung, Richard Rohr and Brené Brown. Each expert offers a fresh lens: Tolle reminds us the ego clings to false identities and craves being right, while Maté reframes the ego as a protective child shaped by early environments. Singer calls the ego our restless inner narrator, Jung invites us to integrate our shadow selves and Rohr highlights the masks we wear to seek approval and control. Patrick and Steffany unpack how our need to be right, loved or in control often reveals hidden fears and old wounds. They challenge listeners to ask what their ego is still protecting and how old patterns may be blocking deeper connections, success and peace of mind. Steffany shares how small moments of self-awareness - noticing when we defend ourselves, seek control or put on masks - can create profound shifts. They urge listeners to question their identity, drop the armor and stand firm in their authentic values. If you’re ready to shift from fighting your ego to partnering with it for growth, clarity and real connection, this episode delivers wisdom, laughter and practical tools to help you show up as your truest self.

• TEDM – Matt Theriault – Building Epic Wealth, Through the Power of Real Estate (Episode 223)

  Matt Theriault is the Founder of Epic Real Estate™. Matt is a fifth-generation California native and Desert Storm Veteran (USMC) and has worked as a full-time real estate professional since 2003. After building a small real estate empire without using one dime of his own money or one point of his own credit (mostly because he was lacking both when he started), he discovered that he has a knack for simplifying the complicated, implementing systems and producing desirable results for himself and others. When you get down to it, Matt is an ordinary guy who once had a goal to be successful in real estate and become a master of the “multiple streams of passive income” concept. As an experienced and accomplished professional, Matt felt writing and teaching was the next logical step in his career. Also, because of the issues surrounding the economy, he is especially interested in informing the public of what multiple streams of income, cash flow and investing in real estate can do for them. In this episode, we’re diving headfirst into the world of real estate investing. Matt shares how he went from owning a multi-million-dollar record label, to flat broke, to financially free by building multiple streams of income starting with strategic property investing. A fork in the road moment was just what Matt needed to shift his mindset and find a new path to break out of the paycheque-to-paycheque grind he found himself in. Matt drops practical tips, a few hard-earned lessons and the gratitude he feels for the business and life vision he and his wife Mercedes share, that makes working together not only possible, but powerful. Listen in to this episode for insights that show real estate investing can be the gateway to lasting financial freedom.

• Mindset Matters - Episode #192 - I’m Not Enough? The Hidden Belief Blocking Your Purpose

  In this powerful episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany unpack a foundational truth: true health, authentic freedom, and purposeful living all begin within. The conversation starts with a compelling insight: “You don’t need to find your purpose—you need to clear the noise so it can find you.” Clarity, they argue, isn’t about trying harder—it’s about removing what’s in the way. Drawing from personal experience and coaching conversations, Patrick and Steffany explore how hidden beliefs like “I’m not enough” or “I’m not worthy” silently shape our behaviours, decisions, and ultimately, our sense of self-worth. The episode dives deep into the seven dimensions of holistic health—physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, vocational, financial, and social—and how imbalance in any area can obstruct our ability to live fully aligned. Listeners are invited to reflect on which “buckets” in their life are running low and how ignoring these areas can lead to dissatisfaction, confusion, and even the illusion of purpose that’s really just distraction. Freedom, the duo explains, isn’t just financial. True freedom is liberation from internal constraints—our fears, ego-driven stories, and limiting beliefs. They emphasize that many chase purpose externally, when in reality, purpose emerges when we align with our values, clear our minds (the “Mind Shui” method), and reconnect with what truly matters. This episode is a heartfelt invitation to ask different questions, to pause, to become aware, and to courageously sit with yourself—even in silence. Because ultimately, your purpose isn't out there—it's in you, waiting for space to unfold.

• Mindset Matters – Episode #191 – From Micro Adjustments to Massive Success: The Kaizen Mindset Explained

  Small Shifts, Big Change – Mindset Matters Podcast Ep. 191 In this episode, hosts Patrick and Steffany unpack the power of Kaizen—the Japanese philosophy of continuous, incremental improvement—showing how “small shifts create big changes.” Framed by Patrick’s concept of “Mind Shui” (feng shui for the mind) and Steffany’s 25-year “Quantum Speed” training method, they demonstrate that the tiniest tweak in perception or technique can re-route our entire trajectory, whether in athletics, business, parenting, or personal growth. Key talking points Kaizen Basics: Kai = change, Zen = good. Continuous, “change-good” thinking rewires habits without the burnout of dramatic overhauls. Quantum Paradox: In physics a quantum is the smallest measurable unit, yet “quantum leap” in popular language signals a giant jump. The hosts bridge that paradox: micro-adjustments (e.g., a skater’s hip angle, an investor’s 30-minute morning routine) compound into macro results. Flight Analogy: – Like a pilot subtly correcting course from Vancouver to Toronto, we must make real-time mindset adjustments to reach long-term goals. Economic & Performance Cycles: Boom-and-slump markets, Olympic quadrennials, and even garden seasons all reward those who respect timing, plant seeds early, and stay agile. Self-Talk Audit: Replacing negative inner dialogue with conscious awareness is a low-effort, high-impact tweak—“clarity equals velocity.” Champions’ Paradox: High performers thrive by slowing down to speed up, prioritizing technique, rest, and reflection over constant hustle. Patrick and Steffany close by reminding listeners that most of us aren’t yet “doing the best we can—we’re doing the best we know how.” The invitation: choose one tiny, repeatable action today—wake up 30 minutes earlier, change your drive route, cut 10 minutes of doom-scrolling—and watch your personal and professional results compound exponentially. 🌀 Listen & subscribe to Mindset Matters for weekly Kaizen-inspired strategies on mindset, leadership, and sustainable success.

  Meet Chelsey and Stephen Diaz, the dynamic founders of The Rainmaker Family, dedicated to guiding families towards financial abundance and time freedom so they can leave a thriving family legacy. Taking a bold step in 2017, they shifted from a service-based wedding photography business where they were trading dollars for hours to go all in online passive income opportunity. Now they focus on empowering moms to use the same method they developed to become RAINMAKERS for their own families.

In this episode they talk about the complementary superpowers they each contribute to their organization and share stories about the obstacles and fears they have overcome along the way. Keeping intententional team culture at the forefront has allowed them to spend more time with their family, knowing that their leaders and team will rise to the occasion and elevate it! At the heart of it all is to be of contribution, empowering their community of entrepreneurs, with a focus on moms, to reacquaint them with their identity and become RAINMAKERS for their families.
