About this episode
Today, I’m talking with Jon Rosemberg. He spent decades climbing the corporate ladder, closing massive deals, and achieving everything we’re told will make us happy. But his real wake-up call didn’t come in a boardroom—it happened on his basement floor, building Legos with his kids. In this powerful conversation, Jon breaks down the difference between success and true thriving, and shares the science-backed map to reclaim your agency, find meaning, and reconnect with what actually matters. 00:00 From Survival Mode to Thriving02:43 Jon's Family History of Survival04:37 Defining Success vs. Thriving06:58 The Lego Epiphany: A Wake-Up Call11:51 The Breadcrumbs Leading to Change14:59 The Spiral of Survival and Thriving18:25 The AIR Method: Awareness, Inquiry, Reframing23:59 Real-Life Example: Reframing Failure29:38 Defining Transcendence and Spirituality33:37 Clients and Kids as Spiritual Teachers37:15 Integrating Transcendent Experiences43:05 Small Steps to Start Thriving Today48:21 Where to Find Jon and His Book Learn more about Jon Rosemberg: Website: jonrosemberg.com Book: "A Guide to Thriving" LinkedIn: @JonRosembergJOIN MY COMMUNITY In The Space Between membership, you’ll get access to LIVE quarterly Ask Amy Anything meetings (not offered anywhere else!), discounts on courses, special giveaways, and a place to connect with Amy and other like-minded people.
