A Soldier's Journey from Desertion to Redemption

There’s been a lot of talk in the Self-Improvement world about the subconscious, or unconscious mind. You read about it in classic books like Think and Grow Rich, all the way up to the latest books, like Atomic Habits. So, what exactly is the subconscious mind and how can we not only understand it, but use it to our advantage? On today’s episode, Tony Wechsler and Claudia Lorant are going to discuss “Aligning with Your Subconscious Mind.”Claudia can be reached at her website: https://claudialorant.com/ where you can download her booksAnd on Social Media: https://www.instagram.com/claudialorant https://www.facebook.com/claudia.s.lorant substack.com/@claudialorantAs always, you are invited to join the Strive to Thrive Facebook group for a supportive community.... ⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/strivetothrivepage⁠⁠   BTW...If you love this episode, please take a screenshot, share it on your Facebook story and tag me @TonyWechsler And remember to download the eBook, Strive to Thrive at ⁠⁠https://tonywcoaching.com/⁠⁠  

A scarcity mindset focuses on keeping what you have. In some cases, it’s holding tightly to the little you have, while feeling terrified that it will slip away. Abundance flips the script: it dares you to dream bigger, create more, and generously share the overflow. We all have a choice so why not choose abundance over scarcity. And that’s exactly what Tony Wechsler and Kim Carter are going to discuss on today’s episode.

"Duty, Honor, Country" is the sacred motto of the United States Military Academy at West Point. It was adopted in 1898 to represent the essential virtues of a soldier. But what happens when things go wrong, especially under pressure. And can you ever come back from that? On today’s episode, Tony Wechsler talks with David Mike.

Happy Belated Valentine’s Day. I hope you all enjoyed it, especially those who were able to share it with someone else. If you’re in a relationship, no matter how good it is, there is one thing that must not be ignored. We should never forget the importance of Self-Love. Now I’m not talking about being conceited or narcissism. The relationship you have with yourself is the most important one that you’ll ever have.

As we record this episode, we’re a week away from Valentine’s Day. If you’re not in a relationship, it feels more like “Singleness Awareness Day.” Now I know that some of us are OK with being single, and it’s not an issue. But what about those who want to be in that perfect relationship. OK, there are no perfect relationships, but at least an acceptable one, right? On today’s episode, Tony Wechsler and Janel Otto discuss how to "Manifest your Mate."Check out Janel's first appearance as we discuss her book: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5Z8RbrCLzaJGileODMqUEdJanel can be reached at her website: https://www.janelotto.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@janelottoFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/janelottocoachingSkool: https://www.skool.com/manifest-your-mate-8651/about You can also order her book and/or journal here: Book: https://a.co/d/07Sv1Zfc Journal: https://a.co/d/0gP8gLsl As always, you are invited to join the Strive to Thrive Facebook group for a supportive community.... https://www.facebook.com/groups/strivetothrivepage   BTW...If you love this episode, please take a screenshot, share it on your Facebook story and tag me @TonyWechsler And remember to download the eBook, Strive to Thrive at https://tonywcoaching.com/  

Once upon a time, in a land far far away…..That’s how most of the stories we grew up listening to start out. But each one of us has a story. It’s a story that we tell ourselves, especially when it comes time to make a change in our life. For my story, I was a successful investigator, but in 2020, I decided to make a change. I changed my story, and here I am hosting this podcast, speaking at events, as well as coaching and training people to live better lives.

Have you ever walked away from a talk thinking, 'Wow, that person was magnetic,' but couldn't quite put your finger on why? Or maybe you've felt stuck trying to copy someone else's speaking style, only to feel inauthentic and flat? The truth is, powerful communication isn't about imitating great speakers—it's about unlocking the unique speaking energy you already carry inside. On today’s episode, Tony Wechsler and Natasha Bazilevych are going to discuss "The FourSpeaking Energies," which just happens to be the name of her amazing book.

As I record this episode, we’re just starting off the new year. Many of you have great hopes for the 2026, and many of you may have made New Year’s resolutions. Personally, I’m not a fan of them. I prefer to do goal setting, and that’s what this episode will be about. No matter what time of year you’re listening, I know you’ll want to pay attention and do the exercises we discuss. If you’re driving, or doing something while you’re listening, you can always come back and listen with a pen and paper in hand. Today on the Podcast, it’s just me, and I’m going to help you with “Goal to Make a Better You.” I'd love to hear how you are doing with your goals and connect in the new year.

Did you know that there’s a link between clarity and confidence? Understanding who you truly are is one of the best things you can do for your confidence. When you have clarity about what you value, what you enjoy, and where you want to go, and you've taken a big step in becoming free to let others have their values while you have confidence in yours.

As we enter a new year and a new chapter in our lives, sometimes we feel that deep anticipation of excitement. That’s a feeling when we know that what is in front of us is something we feel truly connected to. But what about the times when uncertainty hits? What about those fears that creep in. If you want to move from Striving to Thriving, it’s time to move out of fear and into opportunity. On today’s episode, Tony Wechsler and Mariko Fujimura are going to discuss, Moving From Fear to Abundance.
