The Internal Battle Podcast

Welcome back to another episode of The Internal Battle Podcast! In this episode, I'm gonna share with you guys my top 10 favorite books of all time. These are the books that have inspired me, comforted me, and helped me gain several new perspectives. If you are a fan of the show, you know very well my views on books. A book provides so much life-altering value that you can receive for as little as $7. The books on this list are ones that I will consistently reference, consistently recommend, and share the insights that I gained. I hope you enjoy this episode and that it inspires you to either get one of the books on the list or reread one of the books on the list. Thank you so much for being here!

Hello! Welcome back to another episode of the Internal Battle Podcast! Today we discuss the lost art of personal development, and how we can once again reclaim our minds into making advances toward our potential. By some time after we are finished with our academics, we no longer have the pressure of learning and developing. And as Tony Robbins says, if we are not growing we are dying. This episode is one to remind you that we don't grow by accident, We grow because we put intention behind the actions we do to elicit growth. But so many of us are stuck in autopilot and forget that piece. Let this be the episode to remind you that the next version of you is waiting on the other side of growing your current self. This episode was inspired by an amazing book, The 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth by John Maxwell. I recommend reading this book and take away the golden nuggets that are stored within.

In this episode, I discuss: And plenty more.

Hello and welcome back to another episode of the Internal Battle Podcast! As always I hope you are enjoying each episode. Today we talk about the battle of the Journey VS The Destination. The cliche that we all know so well is that it is not about the destination it's about the journey in theory sounds great, but why do we take it with a grain of salt? Why do we get that "aha" moment and continue to speed up the journey and cut corners to reach that end goal? In this episode, I talk about and more! I hope you enjoy this episode, and consider subscribing to continue on the journey to connecting closer with yourself.

Hello and welcome back to another episode of the Internal Battle Podcast! Today we dive back into my journal which stores some of my favorite philosophies. A habit that I've picked up is writing down quotes, statements, and phrases that help reframe my mind. I think we love quotes so much because they allow us to hear a point of view that we may not have considered. This can be quotes about life, relationships, adulthood, and many more. Most of my quotes come from reading my favorite books, and I have been using an amazing app called Notion which has an awesome template for your reading list, where you can store summaries, takeaways, and quotes. I highly recommend using it if you prefer to be digital with your journal. This is part two of diving back into that journal of quotes. (You can find part one when I first dove into my journal on episode 44.) I hope at least 1 out of the 10 quotes you hear today makes you say "Ah! i like that, let me write that down" But at the end of it, I just hope you enjoy this episode overall. Thank you so much. If you love this episode let me know what you think!!! Should I do more of these? I have so much more quotes!

Welcome to another episode where we'll dive into stress and overwhelm. When we're stressed, our ability to make sound decisions and think clearly is compromised. This can lead to poor decisions instead of innovative ones. Fortunately, we have options that can help us navigate these situations effectively. In particular, we have three choices that we'll explore today. Our inspiration for this episode comes from the exceptional book "The End of Stress" by Don Joseph Gowey, which I highly recommend. This book is a game-changer that equips us with techniques to handle any stressful situation. One of the most effective tools we can utilize is learning to breathe, pause, and collect ourselves when stress and anxiety start to flood our minds. In this episode, we'll learn about our three choices when faced with stress and how to leverage them to regain control.

Hello and Welcome back to another episode of the internal battle podcast! Today we have two versions of today's episode. For the month of June, I decided that I wanted to walk 10,000 steps for my birthday.

This audio version of the episode talks about some glimpses of my journey, but you can watch the full version of the video HERE! 10k steps allowed me to step into so many different areas that I wouldn't have thought to enter like making this youtube video. And that's the beauty of challenges. You will learn on the way not at the end. I hope you enjoy this episode and youtube video and let me know if you are planning to do 10k steps!

Hello! Welcome To the show! We have a good episode for you today! Today we do a book discussion on The 5 Dharma Types by Simon Chokoisky. Dharma is your purpose in life, and your dharma type helps define that purpose for you by putting you in a category called the Dharma Type. Much like astrology, your dharma type puts you in a category based on the shared characteristics of others. By knowing your dharma type, you can start to gain clarity on your purpose on earth. Some of us may not know what that purpose is, but by knowing which dharma you possess, your life’s purpose may start to make sense. And if you already know and feel like you know what your life purpose is, knowing your dharma type can help you stay on track. The Dharma types are: The Warrior (9:13) The Educator (18:10) The Merchant (29:55) The Laborer (46:33) The Outsider (55:51) In this episode, I break down each dharma type to help you understand a little bit more about the purpose and direction you are designed to take. Before you listen please take the quiz and find out your dharma type, and learn more! I’ve also made time stamps so that you can skip to your dharma after learning! Take the Dharma Quiz here: https://spirittype.com/self-test/ Enjoy this episode and let me know what your dharma turned out to be and if after learning about it, you see a connection!

Hello and welcome back to another episode! As always I am excited to have you here for today’s show. This battle that I discuss is a battle that I’m sure you have faced multiple times in your life and may be facing currently. This is the battle between Comparison vs. Compassion. We live in a social and connected world to the point where we may feel so involved in others’ lives that we forget to live our own. Sometimes, we hinder our pursuit of aspirations by constantly comparing ourselves to others and their achievements. And on top of that, we diminish our own progress, growth, and life experiences. This episode is designed to help you have more compassion for yourself and the path that you are on. I talk about: I think you are going to like this episode.

Hello and welcome back to yet another episode of the internal battle podcast. Looking to change? Here's something to help you out. Change is a trippy subject. Why is it that we so desperately want things to be different, but we find ourselves back at square one 9 times out of 10? Well, that’s because change isn’t that simple. In order to see change, we have to be willing to understand that we cannot be the same person once we have made the change. Now if we understand the perspective and concept of lifestyle changes, things start to make a little more sense. A lifestyle change is a way of life. It’s not just one change, but a bunch of different tweaks that stick in order for your new self to emerge. The book mentioned in this episode is called “Switch” How to change things when change is hard. And in this book, they give us a perspective that we can easily digest. We all have a Rider (Our Rational Mind) And an Elephant (Our Emotional Mind) They both have their strengths and weaknesses and in this episode, I break those down and lightly explain their method of how change can occur.

Welcome back! We made it to the end of the three-episode series “EYE-SEE-YOU” In this episode, we focus on YOU! You are the center of it all. But life’s biggest question is “Who Am I” and you may have encountered those moments of questioning at plenty of stages in life. At a young age, going through undergrad, and even in adulthood, this question about who we are and what our identity is, changes constantly and this could lead us down a path of confusion. This episode is to address those concerns and those questions so that we can better understand ourselves. And once we began to see that our identity is forever changing, we start to see how we are capable of flourishing in the wealth of knowledge that we have within ourselves. The closer we know who we are, the more we can understand how our minds work. And with the help of our minds, we understand and become more aware of the environments we find ourselves in. Which then allows us to manipulate that environment to match the feelings we have toward who we are. I hope this episode helps bring a sense of clarity, and a new beginning.

Hello and Welcome Back To the EYE SEE YOU Series. Hope you liked the first episode, and I hope it has inspired you to take a stab at the morning pages. In this episode, we talk about SEEING. Now just as important as our internal world is, our external world is just as important. Not everyone processes things internally and it should not always be done so. You can’t have Ying without Yang, up without down, left without right. So our environment and what we SEE are just as important as what we see internally. We can tell a lot about a person based on their environment. We can see: What influences them, how creative they are, are they simplistic, and many other observations. What we may not know is that our environment plays a big role in our lives. And we have the power to manipulate that environment to help assist in any direction we want ourselves to be pointed. For instance, Clutter. Clutter can cause a lot of stress, anxiety and you guessed it depression. A couple of guys made a documentary showing what it's like to be a minimalist and rid yourself of clutter. If you’re interested, here’s a trailer if you want to take a look!

SEASON 3 !! Welcome all and welcome back to the podcast for another season. The break was needed to recharge as well as come up with new ways to bring you value. This season I’m hoping to stand out from past seasons, and better evolve as a podcaster. I’m excited to be back! And what better way to start off the season than with 3 episodes BACK TO BACK. I call this series the EYE SEE YOU Series. They are their own episodes, but they relate to each other in many cases. In this episode, we start with EYE. By eye, I mean the internal eye. The mind's eye, the awareness eye. The internal world is a sacred place where we learn so much about how we interact with the world and how the world affects our minds. If we aren’t careful, we will find ourselves on autopilot and letting the external world take over our day to day. In this episode, we dive into how: ** Book Mentioned: Artist Way by Julia Cameron Stay tuned for SEE and YOU right after this episode! Thank you for listening! Like this episode?

Hello all. Here is an update. Unfortunately one of my close friends passed away. His name was Warren Jean. He was an amazing human who was the life of the party, the light in every room, and they're a person you count on when you needed a pick-me-up. He has supported so many friends and wanted to see everyone grow to their full potential. He told me how proud he was when I first started my podcast and how he knew that I would be able to do it as long as I put my mind to it. I just wish I was able to get him on the show. Warren. Thank you for such an amazing childhood. You and your entire family have impacted me growing up, and I will always credit having such a great childhood because of it. I know you will be watching over this show and all those that you care about. Miss and love you FOREVER. R.I.P Warren Jean. Season 3 will be released April 30th 2023!

I want to express my immense gratitude for those who have been on this journey with me. I couldn't be happier with the way Season Two ended up. From beginning to end I am proud of every single episode. I want to do this same level of justice for the next season. And for that, I am putting this season on pause til April 2nd 2023. More episodes are coming and more ideas are to hit the platform. I thank you all for your continued support and I will see you in the Spring! ps... This is a perfect time to catch up on old episodes and finish others ;) Let me know what you think of the show thus far. Leave a review!

Welcome back to another episode of the internal Battle podcast and Happy New year! This episode is a bit different from previous shows in which I give you a slice of cake into my life. As I’ve proclaimed before, I like to serve as the genuine pig for this podcast and expose my internal battles in hopes that someone can relate. For today, I talk about how intention and focus have led me down the path I venture down. I talk about two experiences and stories here. One is about how I was able to become a guide dog trainer, and the second is about how I broke into the space of data analytics. These two stories represent how following your intuition while adding intention and focus can attract the things you want out of life AND MORE. So kick back and enjoy the show! I am grateful for you being here. Like this episode? LEAVE A REVIEW AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK :) Have a story to share? Reach out to me! ricardo.Mirville@gmail.com Want to hear more? Subscribe!!!
