The Gyst Life

We were excited about episode 50 and we wanted to do something special and in typical fashion, when we stop trying to think of a great idea, one showed.

Being the ripple makers that we are @TheGYSTLife we shifted our format completely for this occasion.

We invited a very close friend to host this episode, the talented and beautiful Heather Spurrell joins us as she facilitates a live couple coaching session right on the podcast.

The guards were up in the beginning but it didn’t take long for our brave couple to relax and get raw and real.

Listen in as Heather uses her profound skills to hold a space for a deep and meaningful conversation to occur. Hear this young couple learn, grow and understand side by side as they grapple with the realities of life, love, and long-term commitments.

While you listen, put down your assessments and judgments and insert your current, past or ideal future relationship into the conversation. Just stay present and open.

You get to benefit from this brave couple’s sharing as they lay it all on the line in public fashion. You’re lucky enough to be in the comfort and privacy of your own thoughts while you listen to this vulnerable experience.

And hey, if you are one of those brave couples who think our guests are the lucky ones, hang in there, you may just get your chance to meet Heather and join us on the podcast for your own couples session. Stay tuned on that.

Wow, sit back relax and take this in. It’s a wide ride so buckles fuckers.

Welcome to episode 63 of The GYST Life podcast where we are joined by Ryan Gill.

Ryan shares his deep passion for gratitude, contributing to others and the importance of selfishness.

We were floored by Ryan’s stories of grit, resourcefulness and a relentless commitment to delivering value.

What do you do when you get ‘bad news’ at the eleventh hour? Most of us would throw our hands up and say some variation for ‘why me’. On today’s episode, you will see what is possible when you stay committed to your promise and you honor your word.

What’s running the show in your mind, are you concerned about what you’re going to get, what’s in it for you or the quick win? When you are committed to something bigger than just looking good, you’ll start taking actions consistent with what you’re out to create rather than focusing on trivial shit in the day-to-day.

Ryan shares some great insights he has picked up over his twenty plus years in business which are directly transferable to life. What becomes available when you stay true to your values? Ryan has lived by gratitude, generosity, grit, selfishness (self-love) and being straight with people and this episode proves it’s working out well for him.

The sky's the limit for Ryan, the rest of us are no different so listen in to get inspired by what you can create when you get out of your own way.

Welcome back to the GYST Life Podcast for episode 55. We are fascinated with people and their stories. Caran Magaw and her dog piper join us this week with a story about victory.
What would be available for you if you started to explore and play in life NOW before you hit the proverbial ROCK BOTTOM? What if you were just cool with what is going on right now in the moment rather than always being in control. Emotions are not absolute, they are not to be controlled, they are to be discovered, explored and experienced.
We’ve all had moments where life occurs like you’re losing your shit. Caran has literally been there and back. Dealing with our mental wellness can be a lonely journey and the reality is we all need mental health and most of us don’t deal with it very well.
Caran shares how lack of purpose in life had her completely lose her identity and the will to function, literally paralyzed on the couch for almost 2 years. Most of us are not aware of how subtle and persuasive the mind can be. The bottom line is if you don’t deal with your mind, your mind will deal with you.
Ok so how do you deal with it?
Ask questions like the following about yourself.
- What are you passionate about?
- What do you want to explore?
- Do you make yourself a priority?
Caran shares how she is flourishing as a result of exploring and developing a relationship with herself. Listen to how she shifted her context as she took responsibility for how she spoke with herself and allowed space to explore her curiosities.
It is very unlikely you’ve not experienced significant discomfort before having a breakthrough in your life. Embrace the discomfort of new experiences and see what is possible..

This week David and Vern celebrate new Milestones in reaching episode 40 and our first listener email. When we first started talking about creating a podcast, I didn’t actually think we’d ever do it. And that is how anything worth doing has ever been created! It all starts with a thought!

In this episode, we talk about small wins and consistent improvements that compound. All too often we focus on total transformations that are not sustainable and we wonder why we fail.

We think about a thing we would love to do and before we even finish sharing what that thing is we stop ourselves with “YEAH BUT”.

How quickly we forget, great leaders and “successful” people we follow and admire, didn’t start much different than where you are right now! So, what is that first step in creating your new possible future? It could be as simple as a google search, a conversation or a request.

We don’t have to make a massive commitment from day one. We can take small steps that compound and allow us to discover what is possible or if we are actually in love with that thing!

So, what is your first step?
