| 0:00.9 | Welcome back to a couple things, interviews. |
| 0:02.5 | With Sean and Andrew. |
| 0:03.4 | Today, we have such a wonderful guest, Hal Elrod. |
| 0:07.3 | Let me tell you some backstory about Hal and I's relationship. |
| 0:10.0 | I have known Hal for about seven years. |
| 0:13.4 | Wow. |
| 0:14.1 | And we were in a Friday morning men's group that was on a Zoom call. |
| 0:19.1 | And we would meet every Friday, 10 a.m. and talk about different |
| 0:23.9 | topics that no one talks about, whether it would be generosity and, you know, how do you go about |
| 0:28.7 | that, wise, or how do you go about writing a bestselling book? How is an expert in that topic, |
| 0:34.5 | specifically, he wrote a book called My Miracle Morning. It's all rooted in |
| 0:38.1 | his story of overcoming some health challenges that he had that he'll talk about in this in this |
| 0:42.8 | interview. I just find his intentionality and how he approaches each and every day really inspiring. |
| 0:48.3 | And his book has sold millions of copies, which is awesome. He's come out with different iterations |
| 0:52.1 | of it. But yeah, I appreciate Hal and his |
| 0:55.2 | insights and we hope you do as well. So without further ado, Hal Elrod. Sean, can I just start this |
| 1:00.9 | interview? Do you know that Hal and I have known each other for years? No. I know no backstory here. |
| 1:08.7 | Okay. Do you know that we've known each other? I was going to say, have brain damage on, so this is the first. I might be also learning something that I have forgotten. Okay, well, I'm super excited now. Let's go. You and I were part of a selfless givers group. Do you remember this? Yes. And so every Friday we would do a Zoom call. I remember these Zooms. And I was so punk because I'm on the phone with Hal Elrod of Miracle Morning. Oh, man. And then I got to know a couple guys in the group like John Rulin. Yeah. And I just learned of his story, dude. Like, you just found out that he passed away. I literally, I, I, like, couldn't believe it. |
| 2:02.4 | It was the first, it was the first time this had happened where I was like, oh, yeah, I got to, I got to talk to John. And they're like, do what you know what happened? I was like, oh, my God, this is crazy. But John Rillan wrote this book called Giftology, which honestly has, like, changed me. and the whole group was amazing and Hal was a part of the group and he was always so generous with his wisdom. So anyway, it is good to meet you not on a Zoom call. Yeah. After probably dozens of times. Well, and I admire you. I mean, it's always so interesting when you meet someone that, like, that you admire and then, like, I hear you like, oh, you, you thought it was cool being on a Zoom call with me? Like, I'm just me, and I thought it was cool. You know, I'm grateful to be here. |
