| 0:00.0 | Hey, this is Michael Kaz, and on this podcast, I explore ways of living a more wholehearted and fulfilling life. |
| 0:08.0 | I believe in the saying that what is most personal is most universal. On this podcast, you will hear |
| 0:12.6 | personal stories of struggle and challenge and what I and my guests have learned from those |
| 0:16.8 | experiences. You will hear ideas and concepts that expand your mind on topics like personal |
| 0:21.1 | development, health, adventure, and sex and relationships. Above all, my intention is to bring a |
| 0:26.3 | depth of conversation and stories to connect more with my guest and with you. |
| 0:34.7 | Hey, and welcome to the show. Today, I'm chatting with Heath Degert, who is a former business coach of mine and current friend.

| 1:45.3 | We talk about his pre-call ritual, something called a 360 interview process, which is the |
| 1:52.0 | greatest self-awareness tool I've probably ever gone through, as well as once you decide what |
| 2:00.4 | you want to work on, once you have a goal or something that you want to |
| 2:03.8 | improve in your life, how do you stay focused on that thing? And we talk about a concept called |
