Nutritionist and cleanse expert Elissa Goodman is the author of Cancer Hacks: A Holistic Guide to Overcoming Your Fears and Healing Cancer.  I know it sounds serious, but we had some laughs while also hearing how she combined holistic alternatives with traditional treatments to beat cancer and how losing her husband to cancer prematurely led to her mission to save others from suffering the same fate.  Hear how Cafe Gratitude put her cleanse on the map and why WholeFoods, M Cafe and Erewhon Market wanted to be in business with her.  Turns out mindset is our number one weapon and Elissa is armed to the teeth with positivity and love.

"I call it... I'm a 'can't-notter', like... 'I can't not do this'."

Traver Boehm has a riveting TED talk entitled "Make Pain Your Guru".  While I highly recommend it, I loved our much lighter conversation just as much, if not more. Maybe "light" isn't the right word, as we delved into the pain he experienced when his wife walked out on him shortly after a miscarriage, followed by his business partner saying they too should break up, a few days later. But we did have some laughs as well. His story takes us from Thailand where he was fighting MMA in cage matches to California, to Honduras, where he sequestered himself to a dark hut for 28 days with no human contact. It is so extreme, and his response to pain so unique, I dare you not to be blown away by his insights.

"So after September 11th happened, I had every accessibility to the bottle and... life just got really tough, Matt, it really did."

In November of 2005, having become an Ironman just months before, Matt Long finished the New York City Marathon with the 4th fastest time among all NYC Firefighters, qualifying for Boston the following Spring. A month later, he was impaled on his bicycle in Manhattan when he was run over by a bus while forced to ride to work during the New York City Transit Strike. World-renowned surgeons almost pronounced him dead, but Matt was far from done. Confined to a wheelchair for nearly a year, Matt almost gave up. But he not only learned to walk again... he completed the 2008 NYC Marathon and the 2009 Lake Placid Ironman. His comeback story is the quintessential 10,000 "No"s legend, documented by the likes of HBO Real Sports and Runner's World Magazine, among others. Matt received the CBS Arete Award for Courage in Sports and was named one of the World's 25 Fittest Athletes in 2010, 5 years AFTER his accident. He also met his wife and finally has the family he always dreamed of... he is the modern day Rocky Balboa, who has gone the distance.

"What's the difference between wannabe entrepreneurs versus real entrepreneurs? What's the shift, ya know? Really, the real question is, how do you go from dreamer to doer?"

Benjamin Hardy has been successfully blogging for years, but he's also studying toward his PhD in Business Psychology, speaking on big stages, and raising three foster children with his wife. Much of his worldview comes from being raised by a drug-addicted father who is now clean and counseling others. Ben discovered the best way to give ourselves freedom and accomplish our goals is to implement more structure in our lives rather than relying on Will Power. His new book, 'Why Will Power Doesn't Work' will be available across all platforms starting March 6th, 2018.
