"Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom." Most of us have heard some variation of that quote accredited to Viktor Frankl but most of us don't know how to manage that space effectively and condition our minds and bodies to respond properly.

That's why today's conversation with New York Times Bestselling Author, Scott Carney, is crucial. During our discussion, we talk about the gap between stimulus and response, how to put ourselves into a highly-effective flow state, fight and flight chemistry, and how to rewire your mind and body for maximum results.

SCOTT CARNEY

My guest today is New York Times Bestselling, Scott Carney, author of What Doesn't Kill Us, and his new book, The Wedge.

He is an investigative journalist and anthropologist. He's done work for Wired, Men's Journal, Playboy, Discover, Outside, and Fast Company and he gained a lot of notoriety as he trained with Wim Hof. Originally, he intended on debunking a lot of Wim's teachings but found the practices to be life-changing and a critical part of his life and work.

Scott's been a friend for several years since he talked with us about his book, What Doesn't Kill Us and you're going to hear how much excitement he has for life. Quite frankly, it's infectious.
