Lil Tankie Has Arrived! Pt. 1

It is my absolute honor to introduce to you the legendary Lil Tankie.

You may know him from past episodes as MoMan or Amoja Sumler.

Towards the end of 2022, Amoja Sumler launched his music into the world under the name Lil Tankie.

Lil Tankie and I sat down together for not just one session…but two.

And from those two sessions, we have created 6 episodes for you!

So I hope you enjoy this 1st of 6 episodes featuring Lil Tankie.

Enjoy!

Living spiritually. Building community. Growing purposefully.

These are the 3 pillars that guide this week’s guests, Sudduf Wyne.

But this is one of the most courageous, real, honest, vulnerable, and inspiring conversations I’ve ever had.

Why can I say that?

With each question I asked, Sudduf would take us to a deeper level with each of her answers.

I almost don’t want to spoil the journey this episode is by revealing too much of what we talked about. I’m that excited for you to listen to it.

So… If you're looking for a deeper meaning, 

If you believe we are here for a reason,

If you have ever felt excluded, overlooked or not seen,

If self-doubt has ever held you back,

Then this episode is for you.

Let’s start this journey.

Hit play.

Discovering Your Effortless State

“Burnout is not a badge of honor. It is true that hard work can equal better results. But this is true only to a point…

All too often, we sacrifice our time, our energy, and even our sanity, almost believing that sacrifice is essential in and of itself...

...what if, instead, we took the opposite approach? If instead of pushing ourselves to, and in some cases well past, our limit, we sought out an easier path?”

—Greg McKeown

A few week’s ago we explored McKeown’s book Essentialism and this week we jump straight into his follow up book, “Effortless: Make It Easier to Do What Matters Most.” 

Personally, I love grit. 

And hard work. 

And sweat. 

That feeling when I’m in the zone, where everything just flows and all time and surroundings disappear.

Then there’s the feeling where there are a million to-dos on a very long list and I’m waking up in the middle of the night, exhausted, but still feeling the push to get up and start crossing things off that list. 

Then I read these words from Effortless: “Relaxing is a responsibility.” 

Wow.

How does that sit with you? Kind of uncomfortable right? 

I invite you to take this journey together into how we can reach that effortless state while dedicating more of our time to what truly matters to each of us. Because I’m working on it and I think we’re both going to get so much out of it.

Let’s do this.
