The Advantage of Objectivity: Why Your "Perfectly Imperfect" is Exactly What the World Needs (Living Lucky® Podcast) Ever feel like you're your own harshest critic? Join Jason and Jana Banana for an inspiring, laugh-out-loud episode that proves the magic happens when you let go of perfection and embrace the "perfectly imperfect." We share the wild, unscripted story of our impromptu Miami dance competition: a last-minute decision, backup costumes, choreography learned in the car, and Jana's actual fall in her wheelchair mid-routine!

This episode reveals a profound truth: your internal reality often differs dramatically from how others perceive you. While we dwelled on perceived mistakes, the audience saw incredible energy, joy, and authenticity.

What opportunity are you hesitating to pursue because you don't feel "ready" or "perfect"? We challenge you to drop the excuses and simply enter the game. Your presence, energy, and willingness to show up – authentically, flaws and all – are far more magnetic than any polished facade.

5/21/2025
Stop Skipping the Foreplay: Embrace the Journey of the Process & Reclaim Life's Full Richness (Living Lucky® Podcast) Are we losing the art of the journey in our "I want it now" world? Join Jason and Jana Banana for a candid, eye-opening discussion on our collective addiction to immediate gratification and the hidden costs of constantly fast-forwarding through life. Inspired by Jason's habit of skipping character development in documentaries (to get straight to the triumph!), we explore how our shrinking attention spans and societal impatience are robbing us of meaningful experiences. Discover why true worthiness and appreciation for goals aren't found in shortcuts, but in the "latency periods," challenges, and slow unfolding of the process. From the simple joy of preparing a meal together versus ordering takeout, to the profound insights gained from a pilgrimage like the Camino de Santiago, we unveil how embracing the "foreplay" of life enriches every destination. We challenge you to reconsider the allure of instant answers (even from AI!) and rediscover the depth and authenticity that comes from leaning into the journey. If you're ready to break free from the "wham-bam-thank-you-ma'am" mindset and infuse your life with patience, curiosity, and profound appreciation, this episode is for you.

Where Are You 'Playing Not to Lose'?

5/14/2025
Stop Playing Not to Lose: Shift Your Perception & Unleash Your Inner Legend (Living Lucky® Podcast) Ever feel like you're holding back, focusing more on avoiding mistakes than seizing opportunities? Join Jason and Jana Banana for an insightful exploration into how our perception often traps us in a "playing not to lose" mentality, even when we're already winning. Discover Jason's eye-opening realization about fixating on stock trading losses while overlooking consistent gains, and Jana's tendency to dwell on rare speaking missteps despite numerous successes. Through relatable stories and powerful analogies—like the baseball player who doesn't run that extra base and the narrow view through a fence—we illuminate this common cognitive bias that limits our potential in investments, relationships, and careers. Learn the profound wisdom of Wayne Dyer: "When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change," and see how Jana's puzzle-solving experiences beautifully illustrate this principle. Most importantly, we challenge you to identify areas where you've become too cautious after achieving success, protecting your gains instead of continuing with the bold approach that got you there.
