  • On this episode of The Jon Gordon Podcast, I’m thrilled to welcome back the ever-inspiring Erwin McManus. Erwin’s insights have always left a profound impact on me and our listeners, and today’s episode promises to be no different.

    We kick things off by reminiscing about a pivotal moment from two years ago when Erwin didn’t sleep for two days and received his revolutionary concepts about the seven frequencies of communication. This all started from an intense, transformative weekend during which Erwin visualized and identified these frequencies.

    Our conversation dives deep into the idea that communication goes beyond words—it’s about frequencies that we emit and receive. From how dogs understand commands to the lonely frequency of a whale, Erwin’s analogies set the stage for a broader understanding of human interaction. We explore how identifying and expanding one’s communication frequencies can foster deeper connections.

    Erwin introduces us to the seven distinct communication frequencies, starting with the “Motivator,” which brings energy and inspiration, and the “Challenger,” which pushes people to their potential. We also delve into other frequencies like the “Professor,” represented by figures such as Andrew Huberman and Malcolm Gladwell, and the “Seer,” a visionary frequency personified by Steve Jobs.

    We discuss how these frequencies impact not just personal relationships but also team dynamics. We share personal anecdotes, such as how recognizing a team member’s true frequency can lead to higher performance and empowerment. Erwin even recounts how understanding his own maven frequency paved the way for pioneering changes in church settings.

    We then touch upon the concept of “shadow frequencies,” where authentic traits can morph into negative counterparts under stress or insecurity. Lastly, we discuss the importance of big conversations, future-oriented thinking, and the transformative power of communication frequencies for healing and growth.

    This episode is a treasure trove of insights, reflections, and actionable advice that can revolutionize how we understand and practice communication. Join us in this journey of discovery and learn how to tune into the right frequency for better, deeper connections.

    Don’t miss out—tune in now and let’s create a frequency ripple effect together!

  • This is a special short episode of The Jon Gordon Podcast where Jon shares his revolutionary perspective on the brain being an antenna.

    The more we tune into negative thoughts, such as fear, worry, doubt, jealousy, hopelessness, and unworthiness, these thoughts negatively affect our antenna, which causes it to tune into and receive more negative thoughts which leads to further separation.

    When we tune into positive thoughts such as love, hope, confidence, faith, optimism, and belief, we tune into a higher frequency and nourish our brain, creating a strong and healthy antenna that tunes into more positive thoughts which leads to connection.

    Be sure to listen all the way through for an important surprise at the end. :)

    I'm joined by Candace Cameron Bure, accomplished actress who you may know from her role as D.J. Tanner on Full House, her appearance on Dancing with the Stars, or her many popular roles on the Hallmark Channel.

    During this interview we talk about hope, family, faith, and perseverance. Candace shares her mission to make an impact through family entertainment and how that has been brought to life in her latest movie "Unsung Hero," which she is an executive producer on and plays the role of 'Kay Albright.' It's a remarkable true story about having the faith to stand against the odds and achieve success without sacrificing what matters most. The story of the mom in this movie brought me to tears.
