Life Is Better When Lived As Improv with Jesse Elder

The Mind Of George Show

In today’s episode, I sat down with the one and only Jesse Elder for a deep conversation about self-awareness, personal growth, and how to navigate uncertain times with confidence.

We talk about the power of meditation, the importance of authentic communication, and why living an interesting life is more valuable than ever in today’s world. Jesse shares some incredible insights from his own journey—everything from cross-country train adventures to the idea of a 'hedonic reset.'

We dive into what it really means to trust yourself, create genuine value, and break free from societal norms to live a life of passion and contribution.

Press play and:

• Embrace life as improv to stay flexible and open to new experiences
• Utilize the pause between stimulus and response to protect and improve mental health
• Live an interesting life to fuel creativity and broaden your perspective
• Communicate authentically to build trust and drive revenue in your business
• Break free from institutional limitations and reconnect with your true self

If you're ready to get inspired and shake things up, you’ll want to follow Jesse on Instagram and Facebook.

You can also listen to this special episode featuring a 4-phase guided meditation, designed to create powerful transformations.

Also, if you're ready to take this work further, join us at our next event—mark your calendar for November 14th-16th in Montana. You won’t want to miss this transformative experience!
