90. Own your Morning, Own your Day with ...

KELLY LEVEQUE
About this episode

After years playing professional football and a successful stint as a financial advisor, Todd McCullough found himself at a dead-end professionally after being laid off in 2008. He began working as a personal trainer, posting free online content on the side and building what would become TMAC Fitness: a subscription-based 20-minute workout program with a short meditation practice to close. 

His formula is a fantastic way for everyone, from amateurs to athletes, to carve time for their bodies, minds, and overall well-being. 

Today he shares his morning routine, life hacks, and spiritual principles that have shaped his body and mindset to be present and grateful for life's beautiful gifts. 

Todd treats us to a great meditation (from 27:22-29:57) which I invite you to go back to listen to whenever you need to return to yourself.

You will learn about...

  • Playing football, working in finance, and building a fitness brand
  • Making your side hustle your full-time job 
  • Creating structure in your day
  • Moving your body to help your mind 
  • The importance of gratitude and presence 
  • A live meditation to bring you back to yourself
  • The science behind sleeping and power naps
