In this episode of "Mindset Matters," Patrick and Steffany discuss the election of Donald Trump as U.S. President and its potential impact on Canadians. While Trump doesn’t directly govern Canada, his policies may have significant effects on Canada’s economy and its relations with the U.S. Patrick voices his concern over the strong emotional responses he's observed, urging listeners not to be overly swayed by mainstream media narratives. Instead, he suggests adopting a critical mindset and looking at various sources for a well-rounded perspective. He highlights the Stoic approach, which encourages focusing on what one can control rather than dwelling on the uncontrollable aspects of global politics.

They transition into a broader discussion on personal growth, introducing curiosity as a foundational tool in overcoming life’s challenges. Curiosity, they argue, promotes exploration and an open-minded attitude, helping individuals stay adaptable in the face of change. Steffany draws from her experience in high-performance sports, emphasizing that curiosity fosters learning and innovation.

The hosts then touch on the importance of passion, noting that while it can fuel motivation, passion alone may not be sustainable over the long term. They stress the importance of purpose as a guiding force, as purpose can turn passion into a lasting commitment and provide direction through difficult times. Aligning one's life with a clear purpose, they believe, fosters resilience and helps individuals make a positive impact on others.

In closing, Patrick and Steffany encourage listeners to focus on personal goals and values, rather than letting external events drain their energy. By embracing curiosity, passion, and purpose, listeners can navigate challenges with resilience and create a meaningful life that transcends the influence of political or media-driven stress.
