Published: July 3, 2020, 1:42 a.m.

Christina\u2019s guest today is Bill Anthes, Green Beret and founder of Between The Ears, a performance coaching organization that endeavors to build better humans. \xa0Bill Anthes does not hang his hat on his military experience. \xa0He actually prefers not to emphasize it, but it is a part of who he is and his life experience. \xa0Don't be misled though. \xa0Bill's military experience did not make him the person he is today. \xa0Bill is naturally a higher thinker and this path was one he started long ago. \xa0\nIn this episode, we talk about\u2026\n\n Bill's military experience (what it did for him and what it didn't do)\n Why the "Green Beret" status does not define who he is\n Why \u201cmental toughness\u201d is a fiction\n Awareness and how it fundamentally impacts everything we do\n Projects Bill has in the works right now (Bill has since announced the opening of Between The Ears Fitness)\xa0\n Why coaching templates are problematic\xa0\n What's on Bill's bookshelf that you have to read!\n Living in two opposing worlds at the same time (military life vs. family life)\xa0\n Everybody can\u2019t be both a follower and a leader at the same time\n We dissect leadership what it really means to be a leader\xa0\n Responding to massive failure determines how you learn\n Whether Bill feels he has found his life's purpose and what else is in store for him\n Putting Bill on the spot with a Proust Questionnaire! \xa0\n\nLinks to resources:\nMan\u2019s Search For Meaning, Joe Rogan Experience, The Alchemist, Why Buddhism Is True, The Body Keeps the Scores, 5 Years To Freedom, Endure ,Legacy\nFor Bill\u2019s podcast and blog, go to his website: https://btwntheears.com/author/bill-anthes/\nFollow Between The Ears Fitness on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/btwntheearsfitness/\nFollow Between The Ears on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/btwntheears/
