210: Jon Acuff and The 3-Minute Mindset

Got something to say to this podcast? Send a voicemail, and you might hear yourself on the next episode!Jon Acuff, New York Times bestselling author, joins us to talk about his new book, The 3-Minute Mindset—a 90-day daily reader designed to replace negative internal dialogue with simple, actionable thoughts that transform your habits and relationships.Armed with his signature witty, dry humor, Jon dives into the evolution of his writing and unpacks why our biggest obstacle to personal growth is rarely a lack of information, but rather a mindset shift. He shares how to swap toxic hustle culture for intentional living, reframe negative soundtracks, and protect what matters most (like "choosing what's rare" when your kids ask for your time). Plus, we get into real-life moments—from accidental senior citizen discounts at Burger King and the lure of beautifully marketed tinned fish to why bingeing dark documentaries might not be the best bedtime routine!Go to jonacuff.com to find out more about Jon, his work, and other books he's written.Buy The 3-Minute Mindset here!THE SHOW NOTES!Thanks for being a part of our podcast community!
