  • ATG 243: Today Is An Adventure
    Aug 18 2025

    I'm going old school today—70s and 80s motivational guru style. You know those thick plastic binders with cassette tapes that made you want to run through walls? That's the energy I'm bringing. This episode is different. It's a short, highly motivational boost designed to be replayed whenever you're discouraged and need that little bit of juice. Because today isn't just another average Monday—there's no such thing as average days when we're guaranteed none and given this one. Today is an adventure, an invitation to edge country where anything is possible. We can plan and predict, but the day speaks in dares, not formulas. So download this one, save it for a rainy day, and remember: killing your dreams because you're afraid they might get bruised is a trade-off you should never make. Today is much like you—one of one.

  • ATG 242: Summer Soundtracks Part 6: Throw Shorter Pity Parties
    Aug 11 2025

    Let’s end this series with one of the most powerful mindset shifts I’ve learned:

    Throw shorter pity parties.

    In the final episode of my Summer Soundtracks Series, I’m sharing why it’s okay to feel the sting of failure—but not okay to camp out in it forever. I’ll unpack the difference between processing and pity, and challenge you to stop RSVPing to every pity party you throw for yourself. Let’s talk about what it looks like to feel it, process it, and then move forward.

  • ATG 241: Summer Soundtracks Part 5: Growth Is the Goal, Not Comfort
    Aug 4 2025

    This one hit me right between the eyes.

    In Part 5 of my Summer Soundtracks Series, I’m talking about a mindset I’m still learning to believe: Growth is the goal, not comfort.

    It’s easy to quit when things get awkward, inconvenient, or uncomfortable. I’ve done it with goals like YouTube, and I’ve pushed through it with goals like writing my first book. Today I’ll show you why discomfort isn’t a sign something’s going wrong—it’s a sign something’s going right.

Setting goals? this is the podcast that you NEED! I have always been a goal nerd THEN I retired early and I got lost. Listening to Jon reminded me the power of goals. I am back in grad school and setting personal goals. Suddenly the happiness of making and achieving is back. Halfway through AND a 4.0 Thanks Jon!

Goals for the Masses

Many people tell me that I am a “visionary” and have the most amazing ideas, and that feels great right up till the part where I don’t ever actually do the thing or I start and never finish!!

There have been so many episodes that I start and instantly blush because I just know Jon and his guest are totally calling me out!! It is almost like Jon has the same brain as I do aaaand has some experience with this exact issue I struggle with!! 🤣

In the last year I have started AND finished more goals than any other year so far, and a lot of it had to do with Jon’s books and this podcast!!

Jon makes a goal to read 100 books a year, and one of his suggestions on how to be successful doing this is to always have books in the queue so you don’t have to think about it. One of my favorite things about the podcast is that he asks each guest for a list of their favorite books, so after every episode I add those books to my wishlist on Amazon so I ALWAYS have something to read next!!

I really believe everyone out there can benefit from listening to these episodes because the knowledge within each one can be easily applied to personal or professional life!!!

Keep the good stuff coming Jon and Team!!!

From Dreamer To Doer!!

Full of excellent, actionable content that keeps you entertained until the very end. Jon is very personable and down to earth while also pushing listeners to live out their best lives vs. settling for what's currently in front of them. Great master class for beginners on how to make and accomplish goals. However, it's also a great listen for experienced leaders who just need a gentle reminder of why we set and fight for goals every day.

Excellent podcast for a year of change!

This guy is an outstanding speaker and so crazy funny! He helps me see things differently and that keeps me growing. Thanks, Jon.

Learning and laughing combined!

I have now listened to about 25 episodes of All it Takes is a Goal. Jon is lively, easy to listen to, easy to get addicted to, very easy to learn from, and fun! I have come back and forth to this show over the last 3-4 weeks, because I get distracted by the books he and his guest speak about (one of the best parts of his show)! I just finished the episode where he and his daughter interview each other, the respect, love, honor, and pride in his daughters voice when talking to and about her father was the last motivating factor I needed to finally write this review. Well done Jon, thank you for being the type of human being everyone can look up to, and presenting your authentic self to us in the show.

Jon is authentic (the highest compliment I give)!
