Resourcefulness as a soul expression

We’re sharing something special that was previously only for the breaker community on our Substack page: a chat Jonathan and I did with our special Substack community about what happens when we stop defining ourselves by what we do and start looking at who we actually are.  We explore the profound connection between our unique souls, our internal states, and our physical health.

Building on our recent conversation with Simon Sinek (world-renowned author of Start with Why and The Infinite Game), we discuss how to find your purpose by reconnecting to your “soul traits”—those inherent qualities you’ve carried since childhood.

Mayim breaks down the neurophysiology of optimism, explaining how the state of our nervous system acts as the ultimate gatekeeper for our capacity to heal. In a world that often feels increasingly cynical and designed to polarize, maintaining a state of openness is a biological necessity.

Jonathan explores how to find our unique purpose, highlighting how we often box ourselves into perceived limits that leave us feeling constrained and disconnected from our potential. To get more on rewriting these narratives, check out the recent Live with Mayim on Jonathan’s Practical Spirituality page.

Drawing on the wisdom of Michael Singer (The Untethered Soul), we also discuss the importance of “not fighting the universe”—dropping the internal resistance to what is happening so we can trigger biological responses that facilitate healing, even on a global scale.

“Optimism is believing that even in a dark tunnel, there’s light at the end.”

It is about holding space for the belief that peace and reconciliation are possible, regardless of current suffering.

This Live also covers:

- The “Junk Room” Metaphor: How to identify the mental clutter and limiting stories that keep you feeling disconnected from your true potential.

- Biology vs. Belief: How to clear the “energetic residue” of stress to allow your body to move from survival mode into recovery.

- Finding Beauty in the Mundane: The power in finding the awe and wonder hidden in your daily routine.
