In this episode of Mindset Matters, hosts Patrick Francey and Steffany-Hanlen Francey delve into why mindset is more crucial now than ever. The episode opens with a powerful parable of the two wolves—one representing negative emotions like anger and envy, and the other symbolizing positivity like love and compassion. The message: "The wolf that wins is the one you feed." This story sets the stage for an in-depth discussion about the internal battles we face daily and the importance of choosing to feed the "good wolf" through intentional mindset practices.

Patrick explains that although the term "mindset" is relatively new, the concept has been central to human development for thousands of years, dating back to ancient Stoic philosophy. He highlights how historical figures like Marcus Aurelius and Epictetus emphasized the power of self-reflection and controlling one's reactions, ideas that align with modern thought leaders like Tony Robbins and Jim Rohn.

Steffany opens up about her recent emotional struggles, acknowledging that she was feeding the "dark wolf" but emphasizes the importance of being honest about negative feelings without letting them define you. She highlights the balance between acknowledging hardship and maintaining resilience, explaining that denying negative emotions isn't productive for personal growth.

The conversation transitions into how individuals can maintain a healthy mindset amidst adversity by becoming the "observer" of their own experiences. Patrick and Steffany discuss how self-awareness, reflection, and resilience have been cornerstones of their personal and professional lives, helping them guide clients and themselves through challenging times.

Ultimately, the episode underscores the importance of feeding the "good wolf" by practicing mindfulness, cultivating a strong support network, and embracing both the light and dark aspects of life as integral to personal growth.
