From Self-Improvement to Self-Mastery: The Next Level of Personal Growth
The latest episode of The Everyday Millionaire Podcast is now online!
“Why the conversation about mindset and why is it important? It’s not just about success, it’s not about getting shit done, it’s not about being uber successful in business or in life. It’s really how we approach business, how we approach life. It’s actually all about us and how we view the world.”

Mindset Matters: From Self-Improvement to Self-Mastery: The Next Level of Personal Growth
In this episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany dive into a powerful distinction that reframes the entire landscape of personal growth — the difference between self-improvement and self-mastery. What begins as a lighthearted conversation about the many buzzwords of personal development quickly evolves into a deeper exploration of what it truly means to live the “MindShui Way.”
Patrick explains that while self-improvement and personal development often focus on doing — building skills, changing habits, and achieving external results — self-mastery is about being. It’s about transforming consciousness, beliefs, and identity from the inside out. Steffany expands on this by describing self-mastery as a quiet, grounded place where success feels like peace rather than performance. Together, they highlight that mastery is an ongoing journey of awareness, vulnerability, and detachment from ego.
The conversation touches on how life’s transitions, challenges, and relationships all reveal opportunities for mastery. Patrick shares that true mastery begins when the “doingness” of improvement evolves into the “beingness” of alignment. Steffany adds that this is where flow begins — a state she defines as Freedom, Love, Ownership, and Wonder.
Listeners are encouraged to reflect on where they are in their own evolution: Are they striving to improve, or are they ready to master who they are becoming? With practical insights from decades of coaching and lived experience, Patrick and Steffany offer a refreshing reminder that mastery is not about perfection. It’s about clearing the internal clutter, taking full responsibility for who we are being, and finding peace in the process.
