Descripción del Episodio

What does it really take to build a successful business and balanced life? In this episode of the Habits and Hustle Podcast, I am joined by Mind Pump’s Adam Schafer to discuss this very thing. 

We discuss Adam’s challenging upbringing, including his father's suicide, an abusive stepfather, and the importance of allowing children to struggle and learn from challenges, rather than solving all their problems, even going as far as "manufacturing adversity" to help build character in privileged children. We also dive into a wide range of topics such as self-awareness in relationships, building sustainable, profitable businesses rather than chasing vanity metrics or venture capital funding, investing in yourself and your own growth, the potential negative impacts of social media, especially on younger generations, and much more. 

Adam Schaefer is a successful fitness entrepreneur and IFBB Men's Physique Pro. Adam has obtained certifications from top fitness institutions and has trained over 1000 clients. As a co-founder of Mind Pump, he combines his expertise with his partners to make a positive impact on the fitness industry, bridging the gap between wellness and performance. 


What We Discuss:

(06:42) Success Through Adversity

(25:50) Gaining Advantage Through Adversity

(35:11) Understanding Family Dynamics and Breaking Cycles

(44:00) Recognizing Insecurities and Growth

(59:29) Breaking Toxic Relationship Patterns

(01:19:55) Authenticity vs Social Media Persona

(01:32:18) Navigating Social Media and Parenting

(01:42:42) Managing Multiple Businesses and Delegating Roles

(01:53:05) Venturing Into VC Hustles and Investments

…and more!

Hidden History with Dr. Harini Bhat

Hidden History with Dr. Harini Bhat

By shows

Some questions don't have answers. Yet.Dr. Harini Bhat is a clinical pharmacist and science storyteller obsessed with questions that don't have answers. Every week she unravels real events from history that still can't be fully explained. Mass hysterias. Medical oddities. Vanished civilizations. Strange signals. Unexplained phenomena that keep repeating, centuries apart, as if history is trying to tell us something.Hidden History doesn't dismiss ancient events as myth or superstition. It treats them as incomplete case files, shaped by the limits of knowledge, technology, and record-keeping. Because the unknown isn't a failure of explanation. It's a constant in human experience, one that evolves, repeats, and sometimes deepens the more we learn.Hidden History is a Rewind Original, powered by PAVE Studios.

Dr. Death

Dr. Death

By shows

<p>Dr. John Schneider rode into town like a character out of a Western: an outsider on a Harley-Davidson, in trademark cowboy boots. He promised relief to patients suffering in Wyoming and Montana. He seemed like the hero they needed. But when surgeries go wrong and a strange letter exposes a bitter feud, medical professionals and government officials search for the truth about this cowboy doctor. They discover claims of broken bodies, bullying, fraud, and lawsuits.</p><p><br></p><p>From Audible, the fifth season of the hit series <em>Dr. Death</em> returns with <em>The Cowboy</em>: the story of a surgeon who took advantage of a broken system and the fight to bring him to justice.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Season 4: </strong>When a charismatic young doctor announces revolutionary treatments for cancer and HIV, patients from around the world turn to him for their last chance. As medical experts praise Serhat Gumrukcu’s genius, the company he co-founded rockets in value to over half a billion dollars. But when a team of researchers makes a startling discovery, they begin to suspect the brilliant doctor is hiding a secret.</p><p><strong>Season 3:</strong> Paolo is a smart and handsome surgeon, renowned for his ability to perform surgeries that transform his patients’ lives. When television producer Benita covers him for a story, he’ll transform her life too, but not in the ways she expects. As Benita crosses professional lines to be with him, she learns how far Paolo will go to protect his secrets. And halfway around the world, four doctors at a prestigious medical institute make shocking discoveries of their own that call everything into question.</p><p><strong>Season 2:</strong> If someone you love is diagnosed with cancer you want them to get the best treatment from the best doctors. In 2013, patients in Michigan thought Farid Fata was that doctor. Between his prestigious education, years of experience and pleasant bedside manner, Fata was everything you could want in a doctor. But he was not who he appeared to be. This is the story of hundreds of patients in Michigan, a doctor, and a poisonous secret.</p><p><strong>Season 1: </strong>We’re at our most vulnerable when we go to our doctors. We trust the person at the other end of that scalpel. We trust the hospital. We trust the system. Christopher Duntsch was a neurosurgeon who radiated confidence. He claimed he was the best in Dallas. If you had back pain, and had tried everything else, Dr. Duntsch could give you the spine surgery that would take your pain away. But soon his patients started to experience complications, and the system failed to protect them. Which begs the question: who - or what - is that system meant to protect? Dr. Death is a story about a charming surgeon, 33 patients and a spineless system.</p><p><br></p><p>Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of <strong>Dr. Death</strong> ad-free right now.

Ojalá lo hubiera sabido antes

¿Cuántas cosas nos hubieran cambiado la vida si las hubiéramos sabido antes? Esta es la expresión que a menudo nos dicen las personas cuando leen algún libro del maestro Antoni Bolinches, Francesc Miralles o Álex Rovira: “Ojalá lo hubiera sabido antes”. O las que se repiten ellos mismos cuando, a su vez, leen o escuchan a otras maestras y maestros. Muchas veces nos cuentan cosas que nos abren la cabeza y el corazón y pensamos “ojalá lo hubiera sabido antes, mi vida hubiera cambiado”. Este es un espacio en el que nos encontraremos cada semana con un nuevo episodio para compartir reflexiones
