Welcome to the Adaptive Mindset. I'm Brett Gallant, cybersecurity thoughtleader and founder of Adaptive Office Solutions. Here, we
don't just talk tech, we unlock the strategies, stories, andmindset shifts you need to stay secure, lead boldly, and
thrive in a digital world. Let's get started. Welcomeback to the Adaptive Mindset. My guest today is Daniel Anderson,
(00:25):
a personal alignment guide, creator of the legacy code, andfounder of Your Purpose Driven Life. Daniel helps
high-achieving yet unfulfilled people, those whobuilt the career, raised the kids, done the inner work,
yet still feel something is missing. His journey ispowerful. He's faced addiction, divorce, near
(00:47):
suicide, short-term homelessness, andthe devastating loss of his son's mother to an overdose. Through
all of this, he discovered that alignment, not achievement,is what truly sustains fulfillment. Today, he's here
to share how to move from chaos to clarity, howto protect your energy without shutting yourself off, and
(01:10):
how to live what's true for you. Daniel, welcomeIt's great to have you. Um, so let's dig
right in Daniel. Um, let's, um, letme ask you this. What, what happens when fine is no
(01:32):
When fine is no longer enough, youYou just know there's something missing, but aren't
exactly sure. what that could be. Yeah.
(01:53):
Um, so let's takeus back a little bit about your story. Like what, what has been some turning
points where in your life, maybe like where you've moved from paininto alignment, let's get, let people get to know you
Sure. I'm a pretty open book. Um, Igrew up. in the seventies. And as a Gen Xer, you
(02:18):
know, I was pretty much forced to raisemyself and become an adult awfully
early. Uh, thank God Idid have things I did before the internet was around. So that
Um, there was noback then there was no parental supervision. There was gravel
(02:44):
playgrounds, the molten hot metal slide,all the fun stuff. But
even when I was little, I always had a feeling thatI was more than what I
I knew that somewhere deepdown that there was more to life than what
(03:09):
I was going through and what I dealt with. But Ididn't know how to put it into words and then the
new age movement came around. And, youknow, when, when, when it was first discovered
or talked about openly, um, peopleSo I went
(03:36):
along with that. Yeah. That's a bunch of nonsenseBut I kept feeling it's worth
something, but again, I didn't know what, soI ended up drifting throughout my early adult
life from one job to another, trying to figure thingsout. One bad relationship after
(04:03):
another. And tillI met my son's mom, who turned out
actually it was more of a relationship of convenience. Weshould have been just friends and nothing
more, but we ended up having a child together. Spent eightWe got a divorce. He
(04:27):
put me through hell after that for many years. Andthen about 11 years ago, my son found
her after she diedof an overdose. Wow. That
kind of threw my world even more upsideAnd it
(04:52):
made priorities change for me a lot. Bythat time of my life, I finally was with the
right person, who I'm still with veryhappily married to today. He's been
a gigantic help in my life. Yeah.
(05:15):
So I guess the real turning point for me waswhen I decided to start thinking about all
the stuff that I had gone through in my life. And what was the oneconstant? And it was me. I
was the one thing that had never changed, even though all the othercircumstances around me changed. I was still acting like
(05:37):
the same old me, same Nonsense.
And so I decided to start an inner journey and start lookingat myself and figuring things out from there
and change from the inside to seeit change on the outside. Cause you know, there's so many
people that talk about this and have for years, youknow, there's gotta be something to it. And it's
(06:05):
kind of funny because I was. doing paranormalinvestigating as a hobby several years
ago. And one of the reasons why Igot into my journey was to pat back and choose some
gifts that I had when I was a kid that I hid awaybecause I thought they were curses and not gifts. And
(06:26):
little did I know that would lead me to where Iam today, a completely changed person, much
happier, much more aligned withwhat I'm supposed to do and really finally
(06:59):
Well, one of my gifts actually is a strong connection tothe spirit realm and I use pendulum
definition and I commute, communicate with my guidesand things that way. And one of the first things they told me
is you're supposed to become coach. Yeah.
I'm just thinking, you know, I know that didn't come from meSo how do you turn down divine instruction?
(07:34):
and saying like, you're supposed to do this, but figure itout. So I didn't, I jumped head
first into it and spent a couple ofyears trying to figure out exactly who I'm supposed to talk to,
what I'm supposed to talk about, what I'm supposed to do. I hadfour different programs that I tried to launch and
(07:56):
none of them felt like me until I came up withSo now I'm here to help people who
find themselves, you know, stuckbetween the best version of
(08:18):
themselves and the person that's rooted into everydaylife and the people that are kind of stuck in the messy metal. I
know what it's like. I'm still find myself thereand. But I know some
ways to get through it and to build resilience and toAnd that's the truth. A
(08:45):
lot of people are still stuck inthe messy middle. We're
still on this journey trying to figure it out. Alot of times we talk on the podcast about mindset and
overcoming limiting beliefs and adaptability. Alongthe way, what kind of mindset shifts did you have to have when you were making
(09:08):
all this transformative change? Iimagine there's a bit of limiting belief there that
you had too that as you just dived into it and discoveredthis and then landing on the legacy code.
Absolutely. Weall have an inner critic. For some of us
(09:33):
speak louder than the positiveAnd my inner critic. who I affectionately
called the inner a-hole, foryears yelled at me. I mean, very loud
(09:54):
to the point where it was the only thing I was hearing, you know, you'renot good enough. You're never going to mount anything. You
might as well just give up. What's the point of trying? Sothen I, with my journey into myself,
I figured out to start toAnd by meditating and just writing thoughts down,
(10:24):
that really silences that inner a-hole up. And,you know, as I said, for me, it was a nonstop
yelling at the top of his voice through a bullhorn inmy head, how worthless I was, how
I wasn't deserving of success, happiness, love,or anything. And when
(10:49):
I just started to focus onbreathing and thinking, okay, well, if
that's the truth, then why have I met thewoman that I'm supposed to be with? Why have I found
the career that I'm supposed to be in?
And why have I found so many good friends? Um,and slowly, but surely with, with journaling
(11:16):
and just trying to be grad grateful for everything,that voice in about 95% gone
now, once in a while, it still shows up and,you know, the imposter syndrome that we
all get sometimes. Um, but onceyou shut that voice up, it's just, and you, you
(11:43):
And you can start to tap into the, the wealthSo I've shifted my beliefs from, I'm not good enough and not worthy to,
and, and also why me?
Why does this have to happen to me too? No,I am good enough. This is my life. I'm, I'm
(12:08):
the creator of it. Nobody's coming to save us. AndFirst of all, say that no one's coming to save you. So might as well be
And, you know, a lot of people, when they theyhear spiritual spirituality and spiritual growth
(12:29):
and things like that, they automatically kind ofassume it's just a religious dogma and
the rules and all spirituality is, is Tappinginto who we really are and who we really are in
an extension of what people call God. And Godis not, you know, some big old man who
(12:53):
pissed off at us all up in the sky, looking down at us,judging us. No, it's, it's love. It's our
essence. It's who we really are. And ifpeople can realize that and who's always walking alongside
us and with us and inside of us. There'sno need to be fearful of anything. And, you know, fear
(13:14):
is, is a limiting belief. Fear iswhat holds us down and what keeps us from doing anything
Yeah. I've heard it said false evidence appearing real. That'sYeah. You know, what, what it, what experiences
(13:37):
and what we consider reality is, is howwe truly, how we feel about ourselves kind of gets projected
to the outside and reflect back to us. So, youknow, like I had said before, I would always be like, okay, why
did this, why did this have to happen to me? Why, whyam I the one that always loses this job? Why am I the one
(14:01):
that, you know, gets into an accident or getssick and because
of what we focus on, where we put our energy. Um,I guess
I should say that that saying is where our energygoes or where our focus goes, our energy flows. And what
(14:24):
that means is where, what we focus on ends up becoming areality. So people always seem to think
that's a bunch of nonsense, but yet they focus on allthe negative stuff in their lives and all the bad things. And what
happens is more bad things pile on. So why not changethat? You can change your thoughts. Yeah. If you make
(14:48):
Yeah. Why not focus on the lessoninstead of the pain and being
grateful for the lesson and being grateful for everything thatyou see and knowing that We
are really literally all just energeticbeings, no matter if it's us
(15:12):
physically or the trees outside or the grass growingor the bugs, it's all the same thing. It's
all just different frequencies and different energies.
And, you know, it's amazing howfar science and quantum physics and all that stuff
(15:33):
that's way above my pay grade is, howthey've discovered that the tiniest part
of a molecule will actone way until it's focused on, until we look at
it, and then it changes its behavior to whatever we prettymuch decide how we look at it. So
(15:56):
if you look at things as always cloudyand always rainy and always glass is half empty,
then yeah, your life is going to keep repeating that.
Yeah. You're, you're making me think a lot of, um, I'veheard, uh, another person express this, like you
before Bob Proctor, you familiar with his work? Yes.
(16:18):
Yeah. He talks a lot about energy and, andlike, we're vibrational, uh, we're
all moving different vibrations. Yeah.
You know, there are people that talk about it and people that listen toit. I didn't really understand it for a year, but
(16:39):
I still, you know, go deep into YouTubevideos, watching Abraham Hick and watching Wayne
Dyer. Yeah. Dyer's another great guy. Yeah.
And yeah, it's two lecturesthat have really had almost the biggest impact on
(17:01):
Wayne Dyer. Yes. Yeah. Same. I, I, Iremember watching him a lot on PBS and then I've gone down the rabbit hole
of watching him on YouTube. Always something incredible whenyou can pick up from, from Wayne, like, yeah.
And, and it, you know, the thing is that itmay sound like a bunch of out there nonsense, but
(17:25):
it's really true. Everything they, they talk about, youknow, Happiness comes from within and, you
know, people always hear you can't love somebody else unless you love yourself. Andthey think it, you know, to have
one meaning, but it doesn't, you know, when we trulyappreciate who we are and what we are. Everything
(17:51):
You have to have it in yourself to be able to give. You'remaking me think right now about one of the last things I heard Wayne Dyer talk
about. I'll say itand I'm sure you're going to identify with it
right away. There was a, hewas on the street or on a beach somewhere and a
(18:12):
person came up and said, asked him, what's thecity like here? We're just moving here. Well,
what's the city like in your, from where you're from? Well,it's terrible. People never reach out and it's
just really awful. No one really connects their smiles. Hesaid, well, that's exactly what you'll find here. And
(18:35):
then not shortly after, another person came up.
What's the city like here? I'm just moved. I'm excited tobe here and looking forward to meeting people. Well, what's the
place like in your community? Oh, I lovedit there. It was so great. There were so many connections, so many friends, and
everybody went out of their way to help people. Well, you'llbe happy to know you'll find the exact same thing here. Yeah,
(19:02):
that's a great story. Yup. Yeah. So Wayne Dyer,Yeah. There was that story. And then the one that he would
talk about where they,this person had to write out her life story
in five chapters. Yeah. AndI don't remember exactly how it went, but it
(19:28):
was like, I'm walking down the street. There's aHow did I get here? You know, and I, you know, something
like gleaming outside influences forher being stuck in that, that hole. And it took her forever
(19:48):
The two, I'm walking down the street. There'sa hole. I see the hole and I still
I blame outside forces again and it takes me a long time toget out. Chapter three, I'm walking down
the street and there's a bighole. And I fall in
(20:12):
yet again. And this time I know it's my fault.
So it's a little sooner that I get out of it. Chapterfour was the same thing. She walked down
the street, comes to a hole. fallthen she immediately knew it was her fault because she
climbed right out. Chapter five was sheSo true. Sometimes it
(20:43):
takes us a while to learn our lesson to go down anotherSo the story about the hole is When
we go down that same path that we always went downbecause it's comfortable and familiar, we always find ourselves in
the exact same position and the exact same scenario. Wehave to make conscious decisions to stop, pause,
(21:11):
think about it. Yeah. You know, andwhat happens if I go down this familiar road? Well,
it's going to end up with a familiar scenario. But what'sover there? I don't know. It's, it's too scary. Well,
we don't grow until we doYeah. Yeah. Leap of faith. Have you ever read the book?
(21:34):
Uh, who moved my cheese? No.
I highly recommend you listento it or read it. It's very
much exactly what we're talking about. It's a parable of twomice that are stuck in a maze. And
they go to the same place for looking for the cheese. Andone day the cheese is gone. And the same, the
(22:01):
two mice, eventually one decides to break out and start going downa different path and finds a little bit
of cheese, but the other mouse keeps going to the sameplace. No cheese. So
you can do the math, you know where the story goes. Anda lot of times in life, we're like those two mice and
(22:23):
we're going to the same place, getting the sameresults, but we don't take that courageous step and going
out and having that mindset to go after the new opportunities,Yeah, I recently found myself kind of in that same scenario
(22:47):
in a different way. I'dbeen working full time for a company while coaching
and I spent eight years there and thought it wasa wonderful company, great environment, great benefits, great
everything. All of a sudden in July,we get a message from the higher up saying that, oh yeah,
(23:10):
because of our five-year growth plan, we are eliminating your positions.
So I worked in a company that did 401kretirements for major places in
the country. And what Idid there was, you know, basically give HR people
(23:31):
at other corporations best to ourplatform and the levels of access that they got so they
could, you know, fund their employees'retirements. And they decided that that position or
that department was no longer viable. Solong story short is I spent 18 plus months training
(23:56):
a team in India who I absolutely loved. Stilldo. Holding a little against anybody in tech company.
But thinking that they were helping us, but turnsout they replaced us. So
we all still had to put on a smile and show up every single dayuntil September 12th and September 12th came
(24:23):
We were done. And theIt would have been, I'd probably still be laying
Yeah. This time, uh, you know, somethingYou know, our creator, God, whatever you want to call it, put us here,
(24:50):
put me here for, for a reason. And he, thisis that kick in my butt to jump full
in and the coaching business and try to change lives.
And for the first time in my life, after losinga job or knowing I was gonna lose a job, I was
(25:11):
And I still am, I'm stillexcited for this next phase of
Yeah, yeah. It's funny how weget those turning points and they just come up and new
opportunities come. Letme ask you a little bit about legacy code framework a
(25:38):
little bit, just pivot for a bit. There'ssix steps in your framework right there, right? Is that what I
That's correct. Yeah. Andwhat it is, first,
how it came about. MyAnd I got to thinking about not only what he meant
(26:07):
to me, but what he meant to the communityin Milwaukee, Wisconsin, because he was a dry cleaner for 70 years,
70 plus actually, and owneda couple of businesses in what
people would call the bad part of town. And,you know, He would do
(26:33):
nothing but help his customers if they couldn't afford topay for their dry cleaning. He would just say,
fine, pay me when you can. I'll be back next week to collect onwhatever you can give me. No problem. And
I never knew exactly how big his legacy was.
(26:53):
Not only I knew for the family and thepeople that he loved and his close friends what
he meant, but When there were350 plus people that showed up to his funeral, most
of them, a big portion of them, former customersGot me to thinking, you know, and
(27:19):
I ended up doing the eulogy for his funeral whereI talked about legacy and how we need
to really not waitto have our legacy
come out. It's something that we need to consciouslyfocus on building now. And
(27:45):
so from his lessons thathe had taught me throughout life, came up
with the legacy code. And what legacy standsfor is, the L is we
look at what's no longer working in our life. andcoming to a conclusion that we
(28:06):
need to let go of the things that aren't working and move towardsthings that are better for us and serve our
greater good. And howdo we do that? We start to empty the noise, which
is E. So it's clearing themental, emotional, and energetic clutter
(28:27):
that goes on in our head to start gettingback to the silence and getting back to the voice
of the divine that we all have, regardless ofThen we move on to G, which is get honest about
(28:48):
what you really want. Because,Every single day you could ask somebody and when you know that
Do you know you're not? Well, be honest. Justsay, you know, I've got some things wrong, but I'm working
(29:13):
on them and I know things will get better. Yeah. So,and I think it's because we, when we aren't
or want to be honest, we feel guilty about the things that we reallywant. So then we just kind
of put it on the back burner and don't go for it. Ais aligning with what matters. And that's, you know,
(29:39):
getting into alignment with your higher self, youknow, with, with the person that you're meant to be.
And when you're in alignment, everything goes beautifully.
bird seem to chirp louder, the sun seems to shine brighter,even the rain seems to
(30:02):
wash away and it doesn't seemto be as gloomy when
it's raining out because it's just bringing about new life.
B is creating boundaries that hold and bythat I mean not putting up solid
(30:23):
walls around us but protecting our energy and protecting ourauras and not absorbing other people's
It's perfectly all right when somebody asks you to do something to sayWhy is basically yielding to
(30:55):
the best version of yourself and letting goof the person that you were to become
the person that you are meant to be. Justembracing it. And then, you know, going
from there to living whatyour legacy should be and passing on your knowledge and, and
(31:21):
getting rid of fear and just beingand expressing love to everybody no matter what. Yeah.
What haveI've seen a lot of people with the same kind of mindsets that
(31:51):
I used to have and limiting beliefs and not feeling good about themselvesand through the program and through
the things we discussed and the meditations IThey slowly but surely.
(32:16):
You know, I've seen them. really tip away atthat, at all the noise and, and realize that the
stories they've been living in the life they've been living has been everybodyelse's expectations of them and not their own voice. And
that, that's what limiting beliefs are. Now, when we hear,for me, it was, you know, the
(32:39):
worthlessness and the being ignored andnot feeling like I was going to matter and You
But when you hear things enough, itAnd that was my truth for so long. And sometimes
(33:00):
all it takes is another person to look atyou and say, I know what you're capable of.
I don't know you super well, but I can see that you arecapable of so much more and you know more than you
think you do. That was a word or aphrase that I got from my mentor when
(33:22):
I went to school to get into IT. Hewas big on, you know more than you think you know. And I
guess I did because when I was doing myMicrosoft certifications, I ended up passing two of the
most difficult things that they have withina 24 hour period. You're
(33:47):
not feeling them after failing themboth by between one and five
So, you know, if you just, if, if you don't, ifanybody in your audience may not believe in themselves, I
(34:08):
believe in each and every one of them. I'vebeen where you are. I've made it through where you are. And
it's just a test and no matter.
We have to go through these tests to become who weAnd we go through these tests and
(34:32):
the tests seem to get harder when we're in themiddle of it and we're like, How much more can I take?
Well, okay, life's going to show you exactly how much more you can takeYou're hitting some truth bombs there, man. You're like, I've, I've,
Daniel, I've been hit with some stuff and everybody has. AndI'm like, why me? Why not you? And it's
(34:54):
been, I believe, just based on what you're saying, sometimes,yeah, it's a test, but it forms who we are so we can help someone later
on. And I know the tests I've had, and Iknow I've had a couple of doozies. I know
at some point, because of what I wentExactly. You
(35:16):
know, I've walked the path, I've beento the point of At
one point in my life where I lost a job that Ihad, I had no car left. My
girlfriend, who Iwas living with at the time, she moved out
(35:42):
She took everything, left a note, leftme the car that she had, but that wasn't worth anything.
Now, so I was devastated. And since I had lost a job again, my ex-wifewho, when she was still alive, he loved to play
the, you're not going to pay me child support. You're not going to see our child. Yeah.
(36:05):
That was, you know, I'll admit I was stupid and scared of thecourts. And I knew that had
I fought harder, I could have gotten him away from her. AndI feel a tinge of guilt about that still, but
that's another story. Yeah. But. SoI lost my job, I lost my child, I lost my
(36:26):
girlfriend, and then I got an eviction notice from the apartmentbecause I had no way to pay and I'd been giving her
So here I was, childless, just about to be homeless,My family decided they wouldn't help me because I guess I
(36:49):
needed to figure something out on my own.
And so I reached out to a friend who threw me a lifeline andsaid, what I'm going to do is, I don't care what my
life says, you're going to move in with us until you can get back onyour feet. And I was hoping it would only
be for a month or two, but it ended up being five months,Um, he, you know, he's the
(37:20):
one that saved my life. And when I was sitting there most inone of your darker hours, he
was, and he's been my best friend since seventhgrade and we're still best friend,
even after me living there for so many months. And thatwas a test. I'm sure it was. And not
(37:43):
only for, for us too, it was a test for him and hisYou know, I'm sure she, that's a lot, isn't it? Yeah. Yeah.
I literally owe my, all my life to him because Iwas at the end of my rope and that inner
critic, that inner angry person, my inner demon wasyelling. End it, kill yourself. You're better
(38:09):
And I was within fiveminutes of doing it at this one point. What
I suddenly, you know, when, when you feel at yourlowest point, the way you look at things,
(38:30):
it seems like you're in a fog and things just lookdark. Like literally all
of a sudden it just cleared. And I heard this other voicein my head that I hadn't heard in forever saying, don't
listen to it. I'm with you. I got you. You'rehere for a reason. You'll know what it is someday.
(38:55):
Don't do it. Don't listen to it. And all of a sudden, like, just likethat, it changed. I snapped
out of it and. got my stuff together andAnd now
things just started to change for me. I got it.
(39:16):
I moved into my own place out of sheer luckwithout even having a new job yet. And within two days of
me moving into my own place and being on my own again, I'dfound another job that paid better than
But yeah, it's when you'reat your darkest moment and about
(39:44):
to jump off the ledge, there canAs long as you're open to receiving it, and you can recognize
it, you saw it, and that personsaved you. Now, I really
(40:04):
believe in this. People show upin your life, in your darkest hour, and then you can become that
person. I live this by justwhat I'm setting out to be. I
hope I'm living up to it. I keep working on it. be the person Ineed it most in my darkest hour. Right
(40:26):
now, because of things that have happened afew years ago, I know I am that person. When things
that would bother, like you said, things that would bother you before, youcan handle it better, because who you are, who you're showing up as, and
that friendship that means everything, that saved you,that's... Each and
(40:56):
Yes, we do. And themost important person that we have to show that to is
And we don't do it sometimes, don't we? We forget that. We forget to loveIt's easier for us to believe the negative things that
(41:17):
we think about ourselves than to say, Okay. ProveAnd, and why is it so easy to say, um,
oh, nothing ever goes right. Ihate myself. I'm just a terrible person. Why
is it easier to believe that then? I'm a good person.
(41:38):
I love myself. Yeah.
I forgive myself. And that's, that's the key right there.
Yeah. ForgivenessI don't care who did what
to hurt you. Let it go. LetYeah, that's true. I've been there along
(42:05):
the way and I forgive some people. And itIs there a living rent-free in our head? Taking up space that could
Is it right? Not at all. Yeah. No. Andso you say, I forgive
(42:33):
You just, no, you just say it silently out into the world. I forgiveYeah. I forgive you. I love you when
Yeah. Just have to be willing to accept itand do it, which is hard. It is. Yeah.
(42:54):
Um, Daniel, how do people findyou? Are
I'm on Instagram. I'm onLinkedIn. I have a YouTube channel called the
soul searching society. Oh, nice. Um,and I can be reached at, uh, coach,
(43:19):
danielanderson.com. And if somebody wantsAnd yeah, I know, I know you,
um, I know you also have a free guide for listeners,I believe of the truth inside you. Yes,
(43:40):
I do. Let me get you that. I'llput that in the show notes. But I encourage
everybody to DM and connect with Daniel. Starta conversation. You'll be better for having it. It's always
better to meet new people and connect and get to know people, justlike Daniel and I've gotten to know each other. The
(44:13):
real message in here, whatwe've been talking about is, you know, we're not really stuck. Sometimes
we're between two identities, likewho you were and who you really are. I
want to encourage all of our listeners to reflect onthat and reach out to Daniel and look
(44:34):
at his content. Daniel, I want to wrap up here.
I really enjoyed this conversation. It was meantfor me to happen, and I know it was meant for
quite a few listeners to listen to today that it's going to help people. Iwant to wrap up with doing something a little fun. Are you in for a little bit of fun at the end? Oh,
(44:55):
I'm always up for fun. There we go. That's whatI want to hear. Let's do some rapid fire
questions. Okay. Okay. What'sone daily practice you can't live without? Just first thing comes to your mind.
Gratitude. Yeah, I love it.
(45:18):
Horse and Miracles. What is that? A horseHorse. Oh, horse. Yeah. A horse in
miracles. That would be interesting. A horse in miracles.
Somebody should write that book, but a course in miracles. Beautiful.
(45:40):
If someone listening only remembers one truth from this conversation, whatForgiveness is not for the other person. It's for your own
What's a question you wish people would ask you more often?
That's a good one. Yeah. Areyou able to guide me on my path? Yes.
(46:27):
Let's be open to asking for help, askingWhen you think about your legacy, what
do you want to be remembered for? I wantto be remembered as the guy that made
(46:47):
everybody's life around him better. Yeah. InI can't think of a better way to end our show on that note. I
think that's what we should all do. That's the rallying cry. Yeah,for sure. Daniel, listen,
(47:14):

Welcome to the Adaptive Mindset. I'm Brett Gallant, cybersecurity thoughtleader and founder of Adaptive Office Solutions. Here, we
don't just talk tech, we unlock the strategies, stories, andmindset shifts you need to stay secure, lead boldly, and
thrive in a digital world. Let's get started. Welcomeback to the Adaptive Mindset. My guest today is Daniel Anderson,
(00:25):
a personal alignment guide, creator of the legacy code, andfounder of Your Purpose Driven Life. Daniel helps
high-achieving yet unfulfilled people, those whobuilt the career, raised the kids, done the inner work,
yet still feel something is missing. His journey ispowerful. He's faced addiction, divorce, near
(00:47):
suicide, short-term homelessness, andthe devastating loss of his son's mother to an overdose. Through
all of this, he discovered that alignment, not achievement,is what truly sustains fulfillment. Today, he's here
to share how to move from chaos to clarity, howto protect your energy without shutting yourself off, and
(01:10):
how to live what's true for you. Daniel, welcomeIt's great to have you. Um, so let's dig
right in Daniel. Um, let's, um, letme ask you this. What, what happens when fine is no
(01:32):
When fine is no longer enough, youYou just know there's something missing, but aren't
exactly sure. what that could be. Yeah.
(01:53):
Um, so let's takeus back a little bit about your story. Like what, what has been some turning
points where in your life, maybe like where you've moved from paininto alignment, let's get, let people get to know you
Sure. I'm a pretty open book. Um, Igrew up. in the seventies. And as a Gen Xer, you
(02:18):
know, I was pretty much forced to raisemyself and become an adult awfully
early. Uh, thank God Idid have things I did before the internet was around. So that
Um, there was noback then there was no parental supervision. There was gravel
(02:44):
playgrounds, the molten hot metal slide,all the fun stuff. But
even when I was little, I always had a feeling thatI was more than what I
I knew that somewhere deepdown that there was more to life than what
(03:09):
I was going through and what I dealt with. But Ididn't know how to put it into words and then the
new age movement came around. And, youknow, when, when, when it was first discovered
or talked about openly, um, peopleSo I went
(03:36):
along with that. Yeah. That's a bunch of nonsenseBut I kept feeling it's worth
something, but again, I didn't know what, soI ended up drifting throughout my early adult
life from one job to another, trying to figure thingsout. One bad relationship after
(04:03):
another. And tillI met my son's mom, who turned out
actually it was more of a relationship of convenience. Weshould have been just friends and nothing
more, but we ended up having a child together. Spent eightWe got a divorce. He
(04:27):
put me through hell after that for many years. Andthen about 11 years ago, my son found
her after she diedof an overdose. Wow. That
kind of threw my world even more upsideAnd it
(04:52):
made priorities change for me a lot. Bythat time of my life, I finally was with the
right person, who I'm still with veryhappily married to today. He's been
a gigantic help in my life. Yeah.
(05:15):
So I guess the real turning point for me waswhen I decided to start thinking about all
the stuff that I had gone through in my life. And what was the oneconstant? And it was me. I
was the one thing that had never changed, even though all the othercircumstances around me changed. I was still acting like
(05:37):
the same old me, same Nonsense.
And so I decided to start an inner journey and start lookingat myself and figuring things out from there
and change from the inside to seeit change on the outside. Cause you know, there's so many
people that talk about this and have for years, youknow, there's gotta be something to it. And it's
(06:05):
kind of funny because I was. doing paranormalinvestigating as a hobby several years
ago. And one of the reasons why Igot into my journey was to pat back and choose some
gifts that I had when I was a kid that I hid awaybecause I thought they were curses and not gifts. And
(06:26):
little did I know that would lead me to where Iam today, a completely changed person, much
happier, much more aligned withwhat I'm supposed to do and really finally
(06:59):
Well, one of my gifts actually is a strong connection tothe spirit realm and I use pendulum
definition and I commute, communicate with my guidesand things that way. And one of the first things they told me
is you're supposed to become coach. Yeah.
I'm just thinking, you know, I know that didn't come from meSo how do you turn down divine instruction?
(07:34):
and saying like, you're supposed to do this, but figure itout. So I didn't, I jumped head
first into it and spent a couple ofyears trying to figure out exactly who I'm supposed to talk to,
what I'm supposed to talk about, what I'm supposed to do. I hadfour different programs that I tried to launch and
(07:56):
none of them felt like me until I came up withSo now I'm here to help people who
find themselves, you know, stuckbetween the best version of
(08:18):
themselves and the person that's rooted into everydaylife and the people that are kind of stuck in the messy metal. I
know what it's like. I'm still find myself thereand. But I know some
ways to get through it and to build resilience and toAnd that's the truth. A
(08:45):
lot of people are still stuck inthe messy middle. We're
still on this journey trying to figure it out. Alot of times we talk on the podcast about mindset and
overcoming limiting beliefs and adaptability. Alongthe way, what kind of mindset shifts did you have to have when you were making
(09:08):
all this transformative change? Iimagine there's a bit of limiting belief there that
you had too that as you just dived into it and discoveredthis and then landing on the legacy code.
Absolutely. Weall have an inner critic. For some of us
(09:33):
speak louder than the positiveAnd my inner critic. who I affectionately
called the inner a-hole, foryears yelled at me. I mean, very loud
(09:54):
to the point where it was the only thing I was hearing, you know, you'renot good enough. You're never going to mount anything. You
might as well just give up. What's the point of trying? Sothen I, with my journey into myself,
I figured out to start toAnd by meditating and just writing thoughts down,
(10:24):
that really silences that inner a-hole up. And,you know, as I said, for me, it was a nonstop
yelling at the top of his voice through a bullhorn inmy head, how worthless I was, how
I wasn't deserving of success, happiness, love,or anything. And when
(10:49):
I just started to focus onbreathing and thinking, okay, well, if
that's the truth, then why have I met thewoman that I'm supposed to be with? Why have I found
the career that I'm supposed to be in?
And why have I found so many good friends? Um,and slowly, but surely with, with journaling
(11:16):
and just trying to be grad grateful for everything,that voice in about 95% gone
now, once in a while, it still shows up and,you know, the imposter syndrome that we
all get sometimes. Um, but onceyou shut that voice up, it's just, and you, you
(11:43):
And you can start to tap into the, the wealthSo I've shifted my beliefs from, I'm not good enough and not worthy to,
and, and also why me?
Why does this have to happen to me too? No,I am good enough. This is my life. I'm, I'm
(12:08):
the creator of it. Nobody's coming to save us. AndFirst of all, say that no one's coming to save you. So might as well be
And, you know, a lot of people, when they theyhear spiritual spirituality and spiritual growth
(12:29):
and things like that, they automatically kind ofassume it's just a religious dogma and
the rules and all spirituality is, is Tappinginto who we really are and who we really are in
an extension of what people call God. And Godis not, you know, some big old man who
(12:53):
pissed off at us all up in the sky, looking down at us,judging us. No, it's, it's love. It's our
essence. It's who we really are. And ifpeople can realize that and who's always walking alongside
us and with us and inside of us. There'sno need to be fearful of anything. And, you know, fear
(13:14):
is, is a limiting belief. Fear iswhat holds us down and what keeps us from doing anything
Yeah. I've heard it said false evidence appearing real. That'sYeah. You know, what, what it, what experiences
(13:37):
and what we consider reality is, is howwe truly, how we feel about ourselves kind of gets projected
to the outside and reflect back to us. So, youknow, like I had said before, I would always be like, okay, why
did this, why did this have to happen to me? Why, whyam I the one that always loses this job? Why am I the one
(14:01):
that, you know, gets into an accident or getssick and because
of what we focus on, where we put our energy. Um,I guess
I should say that that saying is where our energygoes or where our focus goes, our energy flows. And what
(14:24):
that means is where, what we focus on ends up becoming areality. So people always seem to think
that's a bunch of nonsense, but yet they focus on allthe negative stuff in their lives and all the bad things. And what
happens is more bad things pile on. So why not changethat? You can change your thoughts. Yeah. If you make
(14:48):
Yeah. Why not focus on the lessoninstead of the pain and being
grateful for the lesson and being grateful for everything thatyou see and knowing that We
are really literally all just energeticbeings, no matter if it's us
(15:12):
physically or the trees outside or the grass growingor the bugs, it's all the same thing. It's
all just different frequencies and different energies.
And, you know, it's amazing howfar science and quantum physics and all that stuff
(15:33):
that's way above my pay grade is, howthey've discovered that the tiniest part
of a molecule will actone way until it's focused on, until we look at
it, and then it changes its behavior to whatever we prettymuch decide how we look at it. So
(15:56):
if you look at things as always cloudyand always rainy and always glass is half empty,
then yeah, your life is going to keep repeating that.
Yeah. You're, you're making me think a lot of, um, I'veheard, uh, another person express this, like you
before Bob Proctor, you familiar with his work? Yes.
(16:18):
Yeah. He talks a lot about energy and, andlike, we're vibrational, uh, we're
all moving different vibrations. Yeah.
You know, there are people that talk about it and people that listen toit. I didn't really understand it for a year, but
(16:39):
I still, you know, go deep into YouTubevideos, watching Abraham Hick and watching Wayne
Dyer. Yeah. Dyer's another great guy. Yeah.
And yeah, it's two lecturesthat have really had almost the biggest impact on
(17:01):
Wayne Dyer. Yes. Yeah. Same. I, I, Iremember watching him a lot on PBS and then I've gone down the rabbit hole
of watching him on YouTube. Always something incredible whenyou can pick up from, from Wayne, like, yeah.
And, and it, you know, the thing is that itmay sound like a bunch of out there nonsense, but
(17:25):
it's really true. Everything they, they talk about, youknow, Happiness comes from within and, you
know, people always hear you can't love somebody else unless you love yourself. Andthey think it, you know, to have
one meaning, but it doesn't, you know, when we trulyappreciate who we are and what we are. Everything
(17:51):
You have to have it in yourself to be able to give. You'remaking me think right now about one of the last things I heard Wayne Dyer talk
about. I'll say itand I'm sure you're going to identify with it
right away. There was a, hewas on the street or on a beach somewhere and a
(18:12):
person came up and said, asked him, what's thecity like here? We're just moving here. Well,
what's the city like in your, from where you're from? Well,it's terrible. People never reach out and it's
just really awful. No one really connects their smiles. Hesaid, well, that's exactly what you'll find here. And
(18:35):
then not shortly after, another person came up.
What's the city like here? I'm just moved. I'm excited tobe here and looking forward to meeting people. Well, what's the
place like in your community? Oh, I lovedit there. It was so great. There were so many connections, so many friends, and
everybody went out of their way to help people. Well, you'llbe happy to know you'll find the exact same thing here. Yeah,
(19:02):
that's a great story. Yup. Yeah. So Wayne Dyer,Yeah. There was that story. And then the one that he would
talk about where they,this person had to write out her life story
in five chapters. Yeah. AndI don't remember exactly how it went, but it
(19:28):
was like, I'm walking down the street. There's aHow did I get here? You know, and I, you know, something
like gleaming outside influences forher being stuck in that, that hole. And it took her forever
(19:48):
The two, I'm walking down the street. There'sa hole. I see the hole and I still
I blame outside forces again and it takes me a long time toget out. Chapter three, I'm walking down
the street and there's a bighole. And I fall in
(20:12):
yet again. And this time I know it's my fault.
So it's a little sooner that I get out of it. Chapterfour was the same thing. She walked down
the street, comes to a hole. fallthen she immediately knew it was her fault because she
climbed right out. Chapter five was sheSo true. Sometimes it
(20:43):
takes us a while to learn our lesson to go down anotherSo the story about the hole is When
we go down that same path that we always went downbecause it's comfortable and familiar, we always find ourselves in
the exact same position and the exact same scenario. Wehave to make conscious decisions to stop, pause,
(21:11):
think about it. Yeah. You know, andwhat happens if I go down this familiar road? Well,
it's going to end up with a familiar scenario. But what'sover there? I don't know. It's, it's too scary. Well,
we don't grow until we doYeah. Yeah. Leap of faith. Have you ever read the book?
(21:34):
Uh, who moved my cheese? No.
I highly recommend you listento it or read it. It's very
much exactly what we're talking about. It's a parable of twomice that are stuck in a maze. And
they go to the same place for looking for the cheese. Andone day the cheese is gone. And the same, the
(22:01):
two mice, eventually one decides to break out and start going downa different path and finds a little bit
of cheese, but the other mouse keeps going to the sameplace. No cheese. So
you can do the math, you know where the story goes. Anda lot of times in life, we're like those two mice and
(22:23):
we're going to the same place, getting the sameresults, but we don't take that courageous step and going
out and having that mindset to go after the new opportunities,Yeah, I recently found myself kind of in that same scenario
(22:47):
in a different way. I'dbeen working full time for a company while coaching
and I spent eight years there and thought it wasa wonderful company, great environment, great benefits, great
everything. All of a sudden in July,we get a message from the higher up saying that, oh yeah,
(23:10):
because of our five-year growth plan, we are eliminating your positions.
So I worked in a company that did 401kretirements for major places in
the country. And what Idid there was, you know, basically give HR people
(23:31):
at other corporations best to ourplatform and the levels of access that they got so they
could, you know, fund their employees'retirements. And they decided that that position or
that department was no longer viable. Solong story short is I spent 18 plus months training
(23:56):
a team in India who I absolutely loved. Stilldo. Holding a little against anybody in tech company.
But thinking that they were helping us, but turnsout they replaced us. So
we all still had to put on a smile and show up every single dayuntil September 12th and September 12th came
(24:23):
We were done. And theIt would have been, I'd probably still be laying
Yeah. This time, uh, you know, somethingYou know, our creator, God, whatever you want to call it, put us here,
(24:50):
put me here for, for a reason. And he, thisis that kick in my butt to jump full
in and the coaching business and try to change lives.
And for the first time in my life, after losinga job or knowing I was gonna lose a job, I was
(25:11):
And I still am, I'm stillexcited for this next phase of
Yeah, yeah. It's funny how weget those turning points and they just come up and new
opportunities come. Letme ask you a little bit about legacy code framework a
(25:38):
little bit, just pivot for a bit. There'ssix steps in your framework right there, right? Is that what I
That's correct. Yeah. Andwhat it is, first,
how it came about. MyAnd I got to thinking about not only what he meant
(26:07):
to me, but what he meant to the communityin Milwaukee, Wisconsin, because he was a dry cleaner for 70 years,
70 plus actually, and owneda couple of businesses in what
people would call the bad part of town. And,you know, He would do
(26:33):
nothing but help his customers if they couldn't afford topay for their dry cleaning. He would just say,
fine, pay me when you can. I'll be back next week to collect onwhatever you can give me. No problem. And
I never knew exactly how big his legacy was.
(26:53):
Not only I knew for the family and thepeople that he loved and his close friends what
he meant, but When there were350 plus people that showed up to his funeral, most
of them, a big portion of them, former customersGot me to thinking, you know, and
(27:19):
I ended up doing the eulogy for his funeral whereI talked about legacy and how we need
to really not waitto have our legacy
come out. It's something that we need to consciouslyfocus on building now. And
(27:45):
so from his lessons thathe had taught me throughout life, came up
with the legacy code. And what legacy standsfor is, the L is we
look at what's no longer working in our life. andcoming to a conclusion that we
(28:06):
need to let go of the things that aren't working and move towardsthings that are better for us and serve our
greater good. And howdo we do that? We start to empty the noise, which
is E. So it's clearing themental, emotional, and energetic clutter
(28:27):
that goes on in our head to start gettingback to the silence and getting back to the voice
of the divine that we all have, regardless ofThen we move on to G, which is get honest about
(28:48):
what you really want. Because,Every single day you could ask somebody and when you know that
Do you know you're not? Well, be honest. Justsay, you know, I've got some things wrong, but I'm working
(29:13):
on them and I know things will get better. Yeah. So,and I think it's because we, when we aren't
or want to be honest, we feel guilty about the things that we reallywant. So then we just kind
of put it on the back burner and don't go for it. Ais aligning with what matters. And that's, you know,
(29:39):
getting into alignment with your higher self, youknow, with, with the person that you're meant to be.
And when you're in alignment, everything goes beautifully.
bird seem to chirp louder, the sun seems to shine brighter,even the rain seems to
(30:02):
wash away and it doesn't seemto be as gloomy when
it's raining out because it's just bringing about new life.
B is creating boundaries that hold and bythat I mean not putting up solid
(30:23):
walls around us but protecting our energy and protecting ourauras and not absorbing other people's
It's perfectly all right when somebody asks you to do something to sayWhy is basically yielding to
(30:55):
the best version of yourself and letting goof the person that you were to become
the person that you are meant to be. Justembracing it. And then, you know, going
from there to living whatyour legacy should be and passing on your knowledge and, and
(31:21):
getting rid of fear and just beingand expressing love to everybody no matter what. Yeah.
What haveI've seen a lot of people with the same kind of mindsets that
(31:51):
I used to have and limiting beliefs and not feeling good about themselvesand through the program and through
the things we discussed and the meditations IThey slowly but surely.
(32:16):
You know, I've seen them. really tip away atthat, at all the noise and, and realize that the
stories they've been living in the life they've been living has been everybodyelse's expectations of them and not their own voice. And
that, that's what limiting beliefs are. Now, when we hear,for me, it was, you know, the
(32:39):
worthlessness and the being ignored andnot feeling like I was going to matter and You
But when you hear things enough, itAnd that was my truth for so long. And sometimes
(33:00):
all it takes is another person to look atyou and say, I know what you're capable of.
I don't know you super well, but I can see that you arecapable of so much more and you know more than you
think you do. That was a word or aphrase that I got from my mentor when
(33:22):
I went to school to get into IT. Hewas big on, you know more than you think you know. And I
guess I did because when I was doing myMicrosoft certifications, I ended up passing two of the
most difficult things that they have withina 24 hour period. You're
(33:47):
not feeling them after failing themboth by between one and five
So, you know, if you just, if, if you don't, ifanybody in your audience may not believe in themselves, I
(34:08):
believe in each and every one of them. I'vebeen where you are. I've made it through where you are. And
it's just a test and no matter.
We have to go through these tests to become who weAnd we go through these tests and
(34:32):
the tests seem to get harder when we're in themiddle of it and we're like, How much more can I take?
Well, okay, life's going to show you exactly how much more you can takeYou're hitting some truth bombs there, man. You're like, I've, I've,
Daniel, I've been hit with some stuff and everybody has. AndI'm like, why me? Why not you? And it's
(34:54):
been, I believe, just based on what you're saying, sometimes,yeah, it's a test, but it forms who we are so we can help someone later
on. And I know the tests I've had, and Iknow I've had a couple of doozies. I know
at some point, because of what I wentExactly. You
(35:16):
know, I've walked the path, I've beento the point of At
one point in my life where I lost a job that Ihad, I had no car left. My
girlfriend, who Iwas living with at the time, she moved out
(35:42):
She took everything, left a note, leftme the car that she had, but that wasn't worth anything.
Now, so I was devastated. And since I had lost a job again, my ex-wifewho, when she was still alive, he loved to play
the, you're not going to pay me child support. You're not going to see our child. Yeah.
(36:05):
That was, you know, I'll admit I was stupid and scared of thecourts. And I knew that had
I fought harder, I could have gotten him away from her. AndI feel a tinge of guilt about that still, but
that's another story. Yeah. But. SoI lost my job, I lost my child, I lost my
(36:26):
girlfriend, and then I got an eviction notice from the apartmentbecause I had no way to pay and I'd been giving her
So here I was, childless, just about to be homeless,My family decided they wouldn't help me because I guess I
(36:49):
needed to figure something out on my own.
And so I reached out to a friend who threw me a lifeline andsaid, what I'm going to do is, I don't care what my
life says, you're going to move in with us until you can get back onyour feet. And I was hoping it would only
be for a month or two, but it ended up being five months,Um, he, you know, he's the
(37:20):
one that saved my life. And when I was sitting there most inone of your darker hours, he

Kingdom of Fraud
It’s the unlikeliest of criminal partnerships: a devout polygamist from an insular Utah sect joining forces with a shadowy Armenian tycoon from LA. The result - a billion dollar fraud conspiracy. In Kingdom of Fraud, investigative reporter Michele McPhee traces the origins of the extraordinary alliance between Jacob Kingston and Levon Termendzhyan. Together, the two men trigger the largest tax investigation in American history and weave around themselves a web of dirty cops, influential political relationships and transnational money laundering. All this is set against the backdrop of Jacob Kingston’s clan – The Order. A powerful and secretive polygamist organization in Salt Lake City. To whom Jacob is desperate to prove his worth.
