Matt sits down with the one and only Hal Elrod—a man who has literally died, come back, and turned every challenge into fuel for something bigger. From a head-on collision that left him clinically dead for six minutes to beating a rare, aggressive cancer against the odds, Hal shares the mindset shifts and daily habits that helped him not just survive, but thrive. They break down the power of The Miracle Morning, the truth about affirmations (and why most people do them wrong), and how small, intentional choices can transform your life and business. If you’re ready for a wake-up call—before 8 AM—this episode is it!Chapters:00:00:00 – Buckle Up: Welcome to The Eternal Optimist00:00:57 – Meet Hal Elrod: The Man Who Refused to Stay Dead00:02:29 – Family First, Business Second, Ego Never00:05:16 – A 70 MPH Collision, 11 Broken Bones & Six Minutes of Death00:08:04 – The Power of Owning Your Imperfections00:14:13 – Cancer, 30% Survival Odds & Choosing Faith Over Fear00:22:07 – Facing Mortality & Making Every Moment Count00:26:39 – From Adderall to Impeccable Health: The Hard Truth00:28:11 – The Miracle Morning Blueprint That Changed Millions of Lives00:30:57 – Scaling Impact: Schools, Apps & The Future of Mornings00:33:49 – Affirmations That Actually Work (And Why Most Don’t)00:37:20 – Where to Find Hal & Join the Movement00:39:47 – The Lightning Round: Rapid-Fire Wisdom & Final WordsBook Recommendations:Michael Singer’s booksByron Katie’s booksDr. Benjamin Hardy’s booksLinks and Resources:Hal ElrodThe Miracle MorningHal on LinkedInHal on InstagramHal Elrod and the Miracle Morning Routine on YouTubeHal’s booksThanks so much for joining us this week.
