In this episode of Living Lucky®, Jason and Jana Banana explore Kintsugi—the Japanese art of repairing pottery with gold.

The Humor Shield: When Jokes Mask Fear and How to Find Real Calm Ever crack jokes when you’re actually terrified? In this episode of Living Lucky®, Jason and Jana Banana use a routine medical procedure to explore the thin line between humor as a bridge and humor as a defense. Learn to identify the "Transference Trap"—dumping unvoiced fears onto loved ones—and discover how to navigate uncertainty with mindset mastery and personal development. Stop the "not-enough" loop and reclaim your agency during high-stakes moments. In this episode, you will learn to: Identify Coping Signals:"Clean as You Go":Beat Anxious Predictions:Nuggets: Humor vs. Intimacy:Believe in yourselfAvoid the Transference Trap:Believe in the people around youPrepare, Don't Panic:Believe in your circumstancesNaming is Taming:Believe in a higher powerSelf-help, mindset shift, life coaching, positive thinking, handle uncertainty. Why do I use humor when I'm stressed? Humor is a defense mechanism that lowers cortisol and provides a sense of control. However, it can block honest connection if used to deflect vulnerability. Recognizing "jokester mode" allows for more authentic, proactive communication. How can I better handle uncertainty? Implement "micro-structures": read instructions once, set a hard decision cutoff, and define "good enough" early. Practice "cleaning as you go" by expressing gratitude and fears in daily doses to lower the collective temperature. Stop hiding behind the punchline.

What if your biggest breakthrough isn’t about “how”… but asking a better question about what’s next? In this powerful Living Lucky® conversation, Jason & Jana unpack the real process of reinvention — especially during midlife transitions, semi-retirement, career pivots, and major life changes. Instead of fear-driven “now what,” they introduce a purpose-driven roadmap that helps you design your next chapter with clarity, courage, and faith. You’ll learn the 4 phases of personal transformation — from catalytic moments (shock, opportunity, growth) through dreaming, messy experimentation, and finally the flow state where impact multiplies. Along the way, they share the 5 clarity questions that eliminate confusion and dismantle limiting beliefs: • What do I want? • Why do I want it? • What must I do? • What must I release? • Who must I become? This episode goes deep into mindset, personal development, self-help strategies, and the Living Lucky® pillars: believing in yourself, trusting your people, honoring your circumstances, and co-creating with a higher power. Learn how couples, families, and individuals align without compromise, transform doubt into growth, and move from ego-driven “prove it” energy into purpose-driven positive thinking. You’ll walk away with: • A clear reinvention framework for real life change • Tools to break limiting beliefs & fear cycles • A shared language for relationships & teams in transition • Practical mindset shifts to turn uncertainty into momentum • A faith-centered approach to co-creation and meaningful success If you’re navigating change, craving purpose, or ready to evolve your identity — this episode gives you the roadmap to keep Living Lucky®. What are the stages of personal reinvention? Catalyst → Dreaming → Experimentation → Flow & Impact. How do you overcome limiting beliefs during change? Ask better questions, revisit your “why,” experiment safely, and treat setbacks as feedback. What questions create clarity during life transitions? What do I want? Why? What must I do? What must I release? Who must I become? How do couples grow without sacrificing individuality? Clarify “me,” “you,” and “us” separately — then align upward toward a shared mission. personal development, self-help, mindset coaching, life coaching, limiting beliefs, midlife transformat TEXT US DIRECTLY For mind-blowing inspirational content that we implement ourselves, join us by subscribing and connecting to our private community.
