Ever notice how two people can hear the exact same thing - and walk away with totally different interpretations?

It’s not just about who you’re listening to.

It’s about where you’re listening from.

Are you listening from stress or stillness?

From judgment or curiosity?

From ego or compassion?

That preposition shift - from “listening to” to “listening from” - changes everything.

It sheds light on your filters.

It reframes your reality.

And it gives you the power to control how things land - even when the message stays the same.

In this episode, you’ll explore:

• How your internal state frames what you hear

• Why ego, fear, and blame distort conversations

• How to shift into more powerful frames - like service, love, or gratitude

• A simple phrase that reveals the truth: “It hits different because you showed up different.”

Whether it’s a high-stakes meeting, a tough email, or walking through your front door—you shape the experience by how you listen.

Episode 055 – That Moment the Light Comes On

The Influence Every Day Show with Dr. Ed Tori

There’s a reason people run back to their comfort zone. The darkness is familiar. Safe. Predictable.

But what if the pain you feel when the light comes on isn’t a signal to retreat—but an invitation to awaken?

This episode is about that precise moment: when you get a glimpse of a better version of your life, your work, your relationships… and you flinch.

You’ll be challenged to examine the things you keep running back to:

• A toxic relationship.

• An outdated self-image.

• The excuse that keeps you stuck.

• The “almost ready” project collecting dust.

And you’ll be asked to do one brave thing: sit with the discomfort just long enough to see the world clearly.

This is your sign.

The light is already on.

Will you look?

If this spoke to you, send it to someone who needs to hear it.

Episode 054 - Influence Every Day with Dr. Ed Tori

“No amount of guilt can change the past. No amount of worry can change the future.” So why do we keep living in both?

In this episode, Dr. Ed Tori unpacks a 1400-year-old quote from Umar ibn al-Khattab - a timeless framework for navigating regret, anxiety, self-compassion, and trust in the midst of responsibility.

You’ll explore:

• Why guilt is powerless to rewrite what’s already been written.

• How worry masquerades as preparation while robbing you of peace.

• What it actually means to “go easy on yourself” - and why it’s not about giving up.

• The difference between outcomes and obligations - and how that distinction fuels purposeful action.

• What to do when you feel like something should have been yours… but wasn’t.

This episode is more than reflection - it’s a reset.

For your thoughts.

For your effort.

For your peace of mind.

Whether you’re haunted by a past moment or bracing yourself for a future one, this conversation brings you back to the only place you have any power: right now.
