  • #15: Morning Routines—The NEW Way To Create A Morning Routine In 2025
    Apr 14 2025

    If you followed every piece of advice out there about your ideal morning routine, you'd probably spend eight hours every day doing mindfulness excercises and supplements and journaling and workouts and cold plunges and more. But morning routines can be both easy AND effective if you identify the right mission for your life.

    In this episode, Kyle Reed and Donald Miller break down a new way to approach your morning routine—one that actually fits the demands of 2025. Whether you’re a high-performing entrepreneur, a working parent, or just trying to get your act together before 9am, this conversation is packed with practical strategies, unexpected insights, and a fresh mindset shift. You’ll learn:

    • Why most morning routines fail (and what to do instead)

    • How to reverse-engineer your day for better mornings

    • The role of intention, simplicity, and rhythm in a sustainable routine

    • What Kyle and Don are doing differently this year—and why it’s working

    If you’ve struggled with consistency, motivation, or just hate mornings altogether, this episode will help you build a routine that serves your real life—not some influencer’s highlight reel.

  • #14: Simplicity—Why a “Less Is More” Approach Can Make Anything More Effective
    Apr 7 2025
    Most businesses, brands, and even thought leaders make the same mistake: they overcomplicate things. The more complex something is, the harder it is for people to understand—and if they don’t understand, they don’t engage. Whether you’re trying to grow a business, capture attention, or lead a movement, clarity is your greatest asset. That’s why we’re shaking things up this week with a very special recap episode! We’re revisiting some of the most valuable insights from past episodes—all centered around one powerful theme: simplicity. Don and Kyle explore how frameworks, storytelling, and clear communication can help you find clarity, make better decisions, and connect to more people. Tune in to discover why the most successful brands, leaders, and ideas all follow one golden rule: keep it simple.

  • #13: Marriage—The Truth About What Makes Love Work Long-Term (ft. Johnnyswim)
    Mar 31 2025
    Relationships can be beautiful, but they’re also complicated. From the outside, it’s easy to assume great marriages happen by luck or chemistry. But the reality? Every relationship faces storms—health challenges, career stress, personal struggles—and most couples aren’t equipped to weather them. Without the right mindset and tools, it’s easy to drift apart or fall into survival mode. So how do couples not just stay together, but grow closer—even through the hardest seasons of life? In this week’s episode, Don and Kyle sit down with musical duo Johnnyswim (Abner Ramirez and Amanda Sudano) to unpack what makes their marriage work. From tour bus living to health challenges and creative careers, Abner and Amanda share how they’ve stayed united—and transformed—through it all. Tune in to hear their honest take on commitment, communication, and the real purpose of marriage.
