Transscript: 

Hello and welcome to the podcast Become. My name is Sabine Kvenberg. I am your host, and today I have a very special guest with me. I can't wait to introduce him to you because his story is extraordinary. I know I say this every time but this is really something out of yeah, this could be out of the movie. And some of you may know my background. That was my background. I was a stage in TV actress for many, many years so they really could be a story out of the movie. And I have the privilege to have Adam Lucero with me. Hello, Adam. How are you today? I'm doing fantastic. I'm excited and grateful to be on the show. Your story really? begins when everything started to look up and grade for you. You just finished college. You were on your way to interview for a job. You were ready to rock and roll ready to go. And then basically your life came to a halt. And that's what we call in the movies really where the dramatic point starts to happen. So there was a little build up and everything was good and ready. And now I would like for you to share the story with our audience. Yeah, it's just the classic go to the movies on a Wednesday and get stabbed in the throat story. Just the classic one that you know happens every so often.

1:40

Let me rewind a bit. So I graduated college and I had accepted a sales job in Northern California and so two weeks before the job started super last night. I'm like scrambling to get housing. So I'm sitting at my aunt's place and she says, Adam, I have clients coming over on Wednesday, you got to be out of the house for like eight hours. I'm like, Okay, no problem. So I only know one person in the area. I go hang out with him for about four hours and he's like, Alright, I gotta go. So I'm sitting there like okay, I don't know this area. There's not much to do. I don't know anyone. Like, I'll go watch a movie by myself. And so it's like a Wednesday 2pm Not many people in the theater. And anyways, I'm sitting down. I'm just watching the movie. 10 minutes in, starting to pick up and then all of a sudden, I feel a hard hit to my throat. And I remember thinking like, what the heck, like, this guy hit me hard. Like that was my initial reaction. So I stood up and I was like, Dude, what the hell? And then I felt another punch to my arm and chest. And then so I turn around and push them and as I push them, I feel cut on my wrist and ear and instantly. It hit me I wasn't punched. I was stabbed. And so this guy stabbed me in the throat with the chef's knife. The ones that get bigger closer to the handle. Who went halfway through my throat you could probably see part of it right there. It went deep in my arm like you could see some of the scar there punctured my lung. And so as I realized it got stabbed, I started killing that I had been stabbed. I've been stabbed, the lights turned on. He started running off. And so I take off my shirt wrapped around my neck and I'm just holding the blood and and these two older women come running up there. What should we do? And I tell them just put pressure on my neck. So they're doing that. Then I hear someone say should we call 911 and I will lose it. I am just so pissed off and angry. I'm like, Yeah, you should call 911 If you don't call them in this situation. When would you like this is for like if this situation is fine. No one exists, call them or just being so angry and upset in that moment. But I'd say like five to 10 minutes come passes and the paramedics come they started asking me all these questions. Were yours at what's your name? What's your mom's name? And I get it. They're making sure I'm conscious staying awake with them whatever it is, but I was just so annoyed. I'm like, Just save my life guys. Like I don't want to answer these fucking 21 questions right now. Please just saved my life. And then they're great. Let's get them up on the stretcher and so they picked me up on the stretcher and it was so painful. I felt all the places that got stabbed worse the initial stabbing because now I didn't have the adrenaline in me right. And so they have one person on the front right of the stretcher, one on the front, left, one back right one back left. And so the person in the front right steps over row chairs and I feel all my wounds worse the initial stab and I was like oh my god and the person for the front left goes over the same row chairs for all the ruins. So for every row of chairs there was I felt like I got stabbed four times and each of those places and I remember just looking at the ceiling like trying not to scream my guts out. It was just excruciating pain. And so we get into the ambulance and I remember thinking like, okay, I can start to relax like the paramedics got me they know what they're doing. And as soon as I get that thought, I feel cold rush through my entire body. And it dawned on me I was like I lost a lot of blood like I could definitely die right now. And so I see them bring over an oxygen mask and I'm thinking like don't fall asleep. You're not supposed to fall asleep in this situation. They put it over my face. I knock out like five seconds. And then I wake up seven days later from an induced coma and I'm living off tubes. You unplug those tubes, you unplug my life, my legs forgot how to work. My energy was depleted like I remember even after I wasn't living off tubes, I literally would be eating a meal and fall asleep on my plate because I'd be so tired like eating requires so much energy that I'd have to nap. I can think clearly like I felt like a four year old and my mental cognitive function. And I guess the worst part was what happened to my confidence it disappeared like a quarter and a magic show. I had negative thoughts self doubt. I started questioning. Can I still hit all these goals in my life can I still run a business where I'm helping other people? Or is my potential destined to rot away with my ambitions? This is just This is just so really out of the blue. When when this happened in the middle of the day, by the way, did they did they catch this guy? Yeah, so the cops are actually looking for him at the time he attacked me because two days prior, he stabbed a homeless man 50 times five zero. And so they were actually looking for him and then like when they got the calls, I'm sure they put it together. They got him so he's in jail. He was schizophrenic and in his own world and it may sound weird, but like I have no hard feelings for the guy and I hope he has a great rest of his life. Because the reason is, when this all went to court, well, he couldn't be in court because he was insane. Like declared insane. So he's been working with psychologists or whoever helps him get in mental shape again, and when he regained consciousness and he found out what he did, he pled guilty. He was like I he felt terrible. So shows that he had remorse and that he was just battling his own demons. Right. Like, who's to say if I wasn't facing the same circumstances that he had where he's homeless, I didn't have access to good quality food, water, sleep, whatever it is who's to say I wouldn't be schizophrenic. I'm glad that you don't have that feeling, which is also one important thing that you have that forgiveness, even though what happened to me was, I mean, out of this world now. So when you woke up you all of a sudden realized really what happened to you. And as you mentioned, you the confidence went down. Doubts came in. And first of all, how, how long did it take for you to recover? Were you able to work? Not to tell us that that part in that moment? What happened when you woke up? First of all, I was on heavy drugs. It was an induced coma. So like my mental state, I wasn't thinking clearly because of that. But even after like the weeks when the drugs were off, I still wasn't able to think clearly but not as loopy as that. So it wasn't it was pretty brutal. I mean, when I started waking up and figuring out what happened, and it was just frustrating because right before this happened, I was in such a good place mentally and physically. I was just like on a highland life I was like life is freakin amazing. I've never been this full of bliss and joy and happiness. Like I'm starting this new job like everything is just going great. And so as I like started the recovery process like things started happening slowly I started to get the tubes not be supported by tubes, then it was next thing is like try using your legs only to find out they don't work and so it was like then over the next couple of weeks, it was like kind of figuring out what wasn't working, you know?

8:53

And then at that point, I was like, it became really frustrating because I used to be the visual and track athlete and cross country athlete now. Like my legs don't work like I can't even stand it. This has something to do with your your injuries. What were the injuries? Yeah, so someone stabbed halfway through the throat so I'm guessing that's why I'm living off tubes. I don't know something along those lines. I also have like metal plates in my jaw or something like that. And then punctured my lung down here. And then went deep in my arm right here. And so yeah, I had nerve damage in my tongue wasn't able to speak because my tongue literally can go to the right so I couldn't pronounce a certain words even after I wasn't living off tubes. At first I had to write down to communicate with people. Like the first thing I actually wrote down like when I woke up from the coma was to at least get a refund on my movie ticket. Like like it shows I was in like, like, a decent place. You know, it was fair, relatively speaking.

9:54

And so that was one of the things that really helped like it was frustrating over the times, but eventually that I reached a point where I was like, Look, I can blame the world and be a victim but that isn't helping me live a better life like that isn't serving me. And so what really happened was I got to a point where like, my legs didn't work and I was like, Okay, this is reality this happened. And you know what, like, I can't change it. All I can do is either give up on the potential or fight for it. And so I told myself in one year, I'm going to be faster, I'm going to be stronger. I'm going to be happier than I was before. And that was really just my goal. Okay, I had to believe that was going to happen and that was just something that I'm working towards. And within one year, I ran a 459 mile I was putting up decent weight in the gym, not as much as before, but pretty close to it. And I was just in a pretty good place. But it was a lot in that one year. I had to go to physical therapy. I had to go to speech. Therapy, I had to go to normal therapy I have to go to like EMT to check for my metal plates are aligned and stuff like that. And so I was like, tons of different things like that. But then on the opposite side of it. It wasn't just these things to regain my physical abilities back like if I wanted to hit my goals in life, I need to figure out how to boost my energy levels because right now I can't even eat a meal. How am I supposed to do all these things that get me back on track? So I started learning how to optimize human performance like studying evolution, biology, psychology, to ultimately boost my energy levels, my cognitive function, and every single day was just step by step, day by day, week by week, month by month foot in front of the other and just constantly taking the necessary actions needed. And like I said, one year 459 mile I was pretty close back. That's it. The longest thing actually was like I saw some nerve damage and other things, but I'd say the thing that took the longest to recover was actually like my mental alertness. I was like the craziest part like legs probably came back to full use after like a few weeks, three weeks, four weeks, and then just started getting stronger but like, yeah, it was like my mental alertness. I literally just could not think clearly felt like I was in a state of 24/7 brain fog like, and it was just crazy. Like you could ask me 11 times 11 wouldn't be able to solve it for a while. And then even after like a year, it was like I can crack jokes but everything is just like would drain me and stuff. So I don't know it's really weird to say the mental alertness and just the mental energy took the longest to recover. And so that probably took like, a year and a few months and then once I got to that point, I was like alright, let's now I can start my job. I feel like I'm actually a functional human being again. Can you remember what that internal dialogue was? That you had to make a decision? I will not accept this as the new it. I will get back or even better.

12:44

Yeah, and it was just ultimately realizing like, look, I have two choices. I can play victim. Blame the road, of course has happened to me and you know, like I have every right to be a victim if anyone ever has the right to be a victim and give up on the potential trade there. But again, it's just the internal dialogue was like, How is this thought process this mental state or this perspective, helping me live a better life? Is it helping me get to a point get to the life I want or is it just enabling me to be a victim stay stagnant and be not proud of who I am? And so once I realized that I was like, Look, I have to give up this way of thinking this way. This perspective, this added mental attitude, if I want to get hit my goals and it was really at that point where I was like a new person. I took 100% acceptance, full responsibility, and just did everything I need to do and so that's the mental switch. It's like, it's really just being aware that that train of thoughts not serving you so why would you do it? You know, do you want to what do you want to let 10 years of your life pass you by and you're still in the same place? You're weak, pathetic and saying, Oh, I was stabbed in the throat and like, just telling your story complaining to everyone. Like you're just bitter. You're living a better life or you don't feel proud about yourself. It's like, so it's just really coming to that place where you recognize that and then making the choice because it's a choice. Absolutely. And that's what you just said is so true. And if anybody is listening, and no matter what situation you are, you always have the choice to either be the victim or the victim or if you are in the victim mode, you have no power. You take away the power from yourself. When you take responsibility, no matter what happened. Then you also have the power to fix and whatever it takes to get where you want to go and to expand on what you're saying. It's like because you lose your power. Because what happens is you're essentially saying that the external world your environment dictates what you're capable of. And so that's why you lose your power but if you take full responsibility then that means if something isn't the way in you want in your life, it's because of you and yeah might not be great for your ego might be it take a little hit might not feel as good but it grants you the ability to find a solution instead of making excuses. Yes, and that ultimately led you to where you are today. Helping others that if you wouldn't have had that experience how hard it was, you most likely wouldn't be there where you are today. Yeah, totally. What was the next step? What was it that you really started doing? Because I think you you started studying the human brain and then the body and is tell us about that part? Yeah, it's just step by step. And then eventually when I got to the point where I was like, Okay, I feel functional. I feel good. Like, let's start this career. Let's go and so, yeah, ultimately, that's what happened. And then at that job, like things are going great. Like the higher ups loved me and they were a great company. They while I we got stabbed, like, they donated to my GoFundMe, they said, they're gonna hold the job for me. They were so great. And I started the job and like, things are going as great as they could be like, I was only working 20 to 30 hours a week. They like let me run like I was in a sales job. They live they didn't manage me they let me handle how I want. I was performing well on track for a really great promotion. And, but there's something that just didn't feel right. Like I'd walk in the office and I didn't feel like myself after two months. Like I sit there and I would sit at my desk like literally like feeling like my soul sucked out of me. I was like, I don't even recognize this person. anymore. Like I don't like I just don't like life right now in this current circumstance. And so that's when I realized I was like, looked back at my life. And I was always like this. I've never held a job for two or three months longer than two or three months because like I just cannot work for someone else. I've always started my own business or done a side gig hustle or whatever. And so then I was like, I was like, it's crazy. Like I'm leaving this job and like 21 That's gonna be like, multi six figures in a year if I stick with it. And so I felt kind of stupid quitting because I was like, things are going so great. They're a great company. But I called up my brother and he runs his own marketing business at this point. And so I asked him, I was like, Can I work with you? I think I need to be an entrepreneur. And so he helped me learn marketing. Then after that, I eventually was like, Okay, well, what do I what am I passionate about? And I realized, like, I love helping people with their performance, like I've had friends call me and they're like, they want to achieve more life. So for whatever reason, they just can't get there, whether it's mental blocks that don't believe in themselves. They have subconscious blocks. They struggle to take action. They don't have the motivation, the discipline, their word, they just don't feel good throughout their day. They're always exhausted. I'm not like feeling productive. And so I just realized, like I could be on these calls for 60 minutes, 90 minutes, and I'm just spewing to them like things they could do and helping them but after the call, like I feel energized like, normally on any other task. I spend 90 minutes of super high energy I'm gonna feel drained after but I just noticed I was like I didn't like and I felt I lit up like a Christmas tree. And so it was kind of just set me on this path where I was like, Okay, well, I'm gonna do this now to help people. So that's ultimately what I do now.

18:08

So now let's get back to the show.

Kajabi_30-days free

You really are an example of how to take a situation and turn it around and how to use your mind in a powerful way how to get your physicality back up into a good shape. And so it's not just something that you read in the book, you actually experienced it. Yeah, and experience is far more powerful than anything in this planet. Yes. Oh, absolutely. And you know, and this is in the world that we live in now. And people start to realize that unless I mean you want to become a doctor or a lawyer or one of those professions that you really have to go to the university and do all of that.

20:48

But oftentimes, in business, there are so many wonderful people out there who are very successful in business, but not because that's what they learned from a professor Yeah, was never successful, right.

21:04

They went out and actually got experience and did the thing. Yes, get to experience and learn from others who've done it before. Right? So that really shifts and change the world that we live in today.

21:18

Yeah. So you say you can you know, you can create superhumans now, or help people to get something done in one day that you couldn't or they couldn't get accomplished and for so how can you do it? How do you work with those people? What is one of your tactics if you want to share it?

21:41

Gotcha. Yeah, and I can definitely go into a few things. So again, it kind of depends. I typically work on entrepreneurs. So some of that case would be optimizing, building out teams, delegating tasks, whatever it may be operating like a CEO, but then there's also going to be other aspects to it which can apply to everyone. We are first we have to link your two minds together. You see what happens is a lot of people they know what they need to do right but they fail to consistently do it. They declare they're gonna eat healthy workout, create content consistently or make these changes because great for a few days are feeling fantastic. Till one day they feel tired, lazy or unmotivated. So they say, Oh, I've been doing a fantastic job. I deserve one day off. And we all know what happens. They fall back into their old patterns around it's like every New Year's, you know. And so what happens is, this is happening because they're using their conscious mind to create change. They're declaring that they're going to do XY and Z. But their subconscious mind is in the habit of not doing those actions. And believe it or not, your subconscious mind actually controls 95% of the decisions you make in your day. For example, when you woke up, did you think about which hand you're gonna use to lift the sheets off your body? No. Do you think about which foot you're going to land on first or where you're where you're going to land? No. So how did these decisions get made subconsciously? And so what happens is your brain gets into the what's what's called the brain battle the subconscious mind wants to say the same. Your conscious mind wants to change. What do you think wins as you'd like? They already discovered your subconscious mind or the habits it has created, which is why everyone always falls back into lower patterns and ruts again, this is why people fail to take consistent action, why they don't have discipline. And so ultimately, what we do is we link the two minds together so that when you tell yourself, you're gonna go work out, you do it and you feel motivated to do it. And so that's really the first step is doing that, and just giving them to operate like from a more powerful place, again, to your point where you're saying, you get rid of that victim mindset, you operate with 100% responsibility. When you look at some of the biggest super achievers on this planet, they operate in a different way. They don't let their emotions dictate their actions. So that's really what we do is linked their two minds together and get them to start operating, like a more powerful person does, because the thing is, all the results in your life are a direct reflection of you. If you're not performing at a high level, you're not gonna be able to accomplish grand or things. It's just the simple reality. This is why you see Elon Musk create multiple $100 billion businesses on repeat, Tesla SpaceX neural link, it's because his perspective thoughts and actions effortlessly produce those types of results. He has become that person. And so this is where we have the perspective switch get you to operating at a higher level. Second part of that is we want to help you attain superhuman performance. If you're tired, if you wake up, you're tired, you're exhausted. You have mental fog, you're not thinking clearly you're not motivated, that day will not be as productive as a day where you were full of energy, you're motivated, you're thinking sharp. And so what we do is we help you attain superhuman performance is the second step. And then again, if you're an entrepreneur, we go into the third step where we help you operate like a CEO delegate tasks, get your freedom of time back and grow your business quicker than ever because you have leverage so ultimately, that's our whole protocol in a nutshell. Very good. And yes, it's very powerful to link those two minds together.

And what I've also noticed when I work with my clients, yeah, they we know how powerful the subconscious mind is. But it's the one thing even though when you say, hey, I want I'm going to do this now whatever the task is, or whatever that new habit is, it's really habit replacement. That's how I approach it because we all have habits and we have to do things but we have to replace it with the right thing. Is there like one thing that you have noticed a smooth out working with your clients that works better than the other? That you found that makes that connection? A little bit easier? Yep, yep. Yep. There's one thing that if you're listening to this podcast, and you do this one thing, it will be the most powerful thing you've done in your entire life. It will be the single best decision in your entire life. I promise you with 100% conviction and certainty. And this is formed the habit of sticking to your word. I mean, just think about it this way. So you likely brush your teeth every single night, regardless of how tired lazy or unmotivated you are, right? So why do you do that action versus you struggled to do these other changes you want? It's because you're in the habit of brushing your teeth, to the point where it's effortless. You don't think about it the second nature? Well imagine if you were in the habit of sticking to your work, to the point where it's as easy and effortless as it was for you to brush your teeth. I mean, what would your body look like if you kept your word to workout every single day for the past year or two years? How much further along would you be in your career business if you kept your word to be productive every single day? And how much more productive would you be if you kept your word to go to bed early every single night? And so the thing is, you only give tell yourself things you're going to do that will improve your life. And so if you form the habit of sticking to your words, you can create any change you want in your life. If you tell yourself you're going to work out every single day for for a full year, you'll actually do it because you're in the habit of it. It's going to be effortless. It's literally automatic. That's the power of habits. It was such a great pleasure to to have this conversation with you Adam and thank you so much. for sharing your story, which there is no excuse for anybody. Everybody was listening right now. There is absolutely no excuse for you to to tak tackle something that you wanted to do to reach your goals to go after your dreams. Because if someone like Adam can do it, who was literally on the brink of death, you can do it too. So thank you so much Adam. And if someone wants to get a hold of you, how can they do that? You have two ways. The first is you can go to super human ceo.com and then you can check out our client results. My story if you want to book a call with me or my team, you can go ahead and do that. Then the second place is just my Instagram it's Adam Lucero, Luc Yarrow then the number one so Adam Lucero one. Okay, now we'll make sure to put it into the show notes. Once again. Thank you so much.

Hello and welcome to my podcast become. My name is Sabine Kvenberg and I am your host, the content will inspire you to reach your aspirations and become the best version of yourself. I feature interviews with successful individuals from various industries, delving into the personal and professional journey, how they overcame adversities and the strategies they used to achieve their goals. We have to become the person we are meant to be first, so we can live the life we are destined to live. That also means we must overcome challenges and work through difficult times to learn, grow and become the next more fabulous version of ourselves. I'm so glad that you're here. Let's get on this journey together. Hello, and welcome to my special anniversary episode. Yes. A year ago I published the first episode of become and I cannot believe how fast that year went by. It was such a phenomenal experience. having this conversation with all those wonderful guests of mine who shared their struggles, their overcoming of adversity. And coming out on the other side is their next greatest self. And this is what this podcast is all about to show you that you are not alone. There are so many other people who have overcome difficult and challenging times. Even so bad that they were already dead. Some literally and some were dead inside. But no matter what, the human resilience is fantastic. And we all have that within us. And I hope that this podcast will help you explore that more and discover that so that you can thrive and you can become your next greater self. In this episode, I share the highlights of the last year's sound bites from some of the interviews that I conducted that I feel you need to hear one more time because they were just such great pieces of advice. or stories that really touched my heart. And if some of the excerpts speak to you and you want to listen to the entire interview, you can do this because I will announce before each of those little sound bites, which episode number it is. In addition, I will share with you how I came about to start the podcast BECOME. 

In September of 2021 I sold my business that I had for 27 years a performing arts school and after a few months of adjusting and just relaxing and enjoying my free time. I decided I have to do something more. I cannot just sit at home and do nothing. I have been a coach my whole life and I am also Speaker I enjoy sharing my wisdom my message with a greater audience. So in January of 2022 I was invited as a guest speaker for pod fest here in Orlando, Florida. And during that time, my idea was kindled to start my podcast. I didn't know yet what but I did know that I wanted to make an impact. And then I wanted to share the message of hope, inspiration and motivation. And on one night, I woke up and I was right awake. And this one word came into my mind over and over again. And that word was become we must become the person we are meant to be. So we can live the life we are destined to live and I already started my coaching business. And I coached individuals and helped them to get to that path of becoming their next greatest self. And one of the patterns that I saw over and over again was limiting beliefs. And sadly enough, the notion that they felt they are alone that they found. It's just them and this is far from the truth. There are so many people were struggling with the same things. So with the podcast idea, I thought I want to give people the opportunity to listen to others to know that they are not alone and also listen how others overcame adversities how others overcame challenging situations and literally went into a metamorphosis stage to just break everything down that they know to rebuild everything. To then immerse is there more fabulous self. So here you have it. This was my idea. The idea was born. And June of 2022 I launched my podcast because and I hope you have enjoyed it and if you're listening in for the first time, please continue to listen by subscribing. Every Thursday, I release a new episode and I hope that you will be part of my community. And if you like what you hear, please give us a five star review and write a little review about your experience. We truly appreciate it but without any further ado, let's get into the highlights. The very first episode I recorded was with Dr. Ron Stotts. Now, the sound quality is not the best but the information is really really good. This interview was phenomenal. And that's why I left it in and it is also a reminder you don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to become great. Is there something that someone could do right now, to overcome that?

One thing you have to appreciate that everything. All the challenges in our lives are created in relationship to other people. And that really is your indicator that to resolve those challenges. resolving those challenges needs to be done in relationship to other people also. So lots of times, if somebody liked me it was really that other person then they'd be more group work and then they expanded into their lives into their more significant relationships but the healing marriage to me is not coming together and having eternal bliss. It's finding somebody who's willing to stand in the fire and unpack the bags together and really, you know, heal all of that fast together

episode four, Laura, Mark Quist.
And so after meeting with the endocrinologist doing all the testing and stuff, he's like, Well, you definitely have Hashimotos and that with an autoimmune disease where your body attacks its own thyroid so you can't produce the hormones that you need and your thyroid needs to be imbalanced to get pregnant. And so to do that, we ended up the best program for me it was to use Synthroid to help that get back in balance. And then during that time, I just knew that that wasn't going to be my normal. So I had to start doing some more research in on that to see what other ways can I actually help myself. As a trainer, you you work with a client and they progress in different phases or different chapters and so I had to put my skills to myself, knowing that this is the chapter that I'm in right now and in what I'm training for is like it's not the Olympics. It's the baby birthday. You know, it was kind of my Olympic my own version of the Olympics coming up and so I had to do the things for that preparation.

Episode Five, Dana Agnellini
2005 was a pivotal year for me. It was it was the best that life had to offer and the worst all at the same time. And as you were speaking, I never thought of it this way before but I think of let's say, a crab or what are those horseshoe crabs? I think that they change shells. Yes. They have to let go of their old shell to either find one that fits them properly now, or to grow a new one. But the letting go process is just as important as the next step. So I was in this career that was very lucrative with a big, you know, international company and was doing very well. But at the same time I attracted to me a new boss that for some reason or another, just had a problem with me and was trying to work me out in the organization. So that was part of the shell being relieved and at the same time my marriage was disintegrating. I tried to ignore it. We tried for almost 20 years. Because I was never planning on divorcing I had three kids. It just wasn't in my plans. I made myself a promise. I made my family a promise. But the universe knew better. The Universe knew it was time to let that show go.

Episode 19 Paul Henszel.
So in the beginning of 2010, I was working as a supervisor in a sawmill. I had to unjam a giant log that got stuck against a giant steel beam. Now these logs that we were cutting are called Cats. They're extremely heavy, and each piece weighs about 1000 pounds. Now we had to manually unjam this log before we could, you know, resume production. So I had to crawl into a very tight, confined space. And when we fried this piece, the chains started while I was still in the machine, and I was being crushed alive by 12,000 pounds of wood. I could hear my body cracking, gurgling and crunching. It literally felt like my head was going to explode. There was so much pressure. And I thought to myself, if this doesn't stop, I'm going to die. I then blacked out now. I was not breathing and without oxygen for about 12 minutes. My coworkers had to perform amazing feats of strength just to rescue me and not time limit. When I was freed everyone thought I was dead. They were just about to perform CPR. And miraculously, I started breathing.

Episode 22 Jenny Townsend
At the end of my first year, I finally got everything under one roof. All my teachers were under one roof. We were rocking and rolling. I started hiring more people. And I made a couple bad hires which resulted in me having to work more, more hours more time and we weren't really making any money which was stressful. For me as I'm a goal oriented person. It was stressful for my husband because he's like you're working all these hours and you're not paying yourself. And my response to him was I don't need to be paid. I love what I'm doing. The fact that I get to work my passion every single day and change people's lives was payment enough for me. He never really connected with the mission of my company, which is one of the reasons why we ended up where we were he always supported me in my dream, but he became very resentful, the fact that I wasn't making money and the fact that I was living my dream when he was working a miserable job. So all these different variables led to a massive disaster.

Episode 27 Chris Krimitsos
so I had a story to fiction story that I wanted to write that conveyed a message of getting started because of the business group I was part of as well as podcasting and helping people with YouTube and all these different endeavors. I noticed that was a common theme a lot of people where I'll get started when everything's perfect, or I'm not ready yet. And because I've done so many meetings, you wind up seeing patterns over the years in the 1000s of meetings, one pattern you'd see as someone spending two or three years to get ready. Another pattern you see as someone that would start ugly, and then perfect it next thing you know that a hit show a year in or year and a half in. Meanwhile, the other person is still ready, not ready because it's not perfect yet.

Episode 39 Wally Green
Why are you angry? Why? You're not in America. You're not in a gang. You're not being abused by your stepfather. You you're not part of any of these things. You're in a different country where people actually like you and they don't like you because you can pick up your gun and protect them. They like you just because you're you. So what that was. I love it. Yeah. And that was that was that right? There was a turning point right there that was like about face change, mindset change. Every kind of change you could think of happened there when I actually realize that not everyone in the world is out to get you. Not everyone in the world hates you. And there are people in this world who genuinely care about you. Just because you are you and not what you can do for them. And that was to change. That was the pivoting the pivoting point the turning point.

Episode 40 Susan Gold,
I feel like we need to be brave. We need to stand that and we need to talk about our truth. And it's not so shameful. So many people have had similar experiences, but we keep it all tucked in, especially in the corporate system that's just broken. So I have to say I've been a bit of a trailblazer not knowing it.
Epic episode 41 Brendon Kumarasamy
So a few years ago, when I started guesting on podcast, I suck. I was so bad. I remember some guy asked me like, hey Brendon, where does the fear of communication come from? And I was like, what like, I don't know the fear of communication come so like London, Los Angeles, New York City. Like I don't know. So how did I fix this every single day? So I've been for five minutes answered one question that I thought the world would ask you my expertise. But if you do this every single day for a year, you'll have answer 365 questions and you'll people that
that is a great approach. I have not heard that one. And I heard a lot of answers.

Episode 42 Victoria Pelletier
and for me I can very much remember you know being two and three years old and abused by my biological mother. Whether that was got pushed up and downstairs I had teeth that had been impacted as a result of that eat my baby tea. I even to this day, one of my eye drops a little bit lower than the other because I had a cigarette in my eye and I wear a patch for months. So I remembered a lot of it. Those were, you know, ended up being quite formative, even though we would say it's a little bit later in children's lives just because of the trauma that I dealt with.

Episode 45 Julie Jones,
you don't often see and it's it's kind of a story of my resilience have to if there's something I really want in life, how I go for it. I don't take no for an answer. I was only the third female hired on by my department, which I really had no trouble with the men that I worked with, with me being female because I proved myself early on when I went out for the SWAT team, believe it or not, I'm six foot tall. At that point, I just didn't have enough upper body strength so I wasn't able to get over the six foot wall. And one of the guys in his infinite wisdom decided to give me a little boost which disqualified me and you know the sergeant that was running the the obstacle course you know, he pulled me on the side. I said, I know I'm disqualified. It's okay. I worked out even harder. I improved my upper body strength the second time because I really wanted to be on the team. The second time that I went out for it. You know, I passed everything with flying colors. I officially got onto the SWAT team on my own

Episode 47 Dai Manuel.
I mean it's a journey, right? We hear that term when we reference people in our lives and how we're living them and it is a journey and and yes, I understand it's easy to focus on a destination or have a goal set or to have some intention on where we want to get to. But if we're not really clear on where we're at and how we got there, it's hard to see potentially the connection of who we were to who we are now to who we are intentionally wanting to become. And so believe me I noticed very, very well I've been in a lot of situations where change has not necessarily come easily. In fact, it's been very, very challenging and, and I've been in a few situations in my life where you know, had I not worked through that change and work through being vulnerable enough to ask for help. I don't think we'd be having this conversation today.

Episode 49, Zach White,
After you're in that kind of trough place your face is grinding against the floor of rock bottom as it were right. Then you stand up and you start to just put one foot in front of the other. And what I tell everybody who I've coached who's gone through any form of burnout or suffering or a rock bottom experience like this, or if you're going through it right now. You had to bring the time horizon and a little bit. We're not going to solve the whole thing in one move. We're not going to go create the perfect life in one day. Let's zoom way I like to call it drawing smaller circles, rather than solving for the big equation. Let's just solve for this afternoon. What are we going to do this afternoon to make sure it's a little bit better than yesterday to make sure we're not going back to those same patterns or habits that got us stuck in the first place and put one foot in front of the other.

Episode 50 the firewall with Dave Albin,
Here's the first thing I learned about Firewalker great lesson great metaphor for life. When you take that first step onto those goals. Oh, you'll take the second, third fourth. I guarantee right. You're not going to stop in the middle of that fire lane. Well, that was it. So
you did the fire walk and what happened then what changed?
Well, what changed was, you know again that night it was spectacular. It was one of the most unbelievable experiences of my entire life. And the next day, this is where it really got interesting for me. I'm in the foyer with 3500 people getting ready to go into the venue and I'm looking around so being and I'm watching all these people and they were communicating unlike anything I'd ever been been around. I've never seen or experienced anything like this. They were laughing. They were crying. They were hugging. They were engaging. They were telling their story. It was just like it was like storytime everywhere. 3500 People just were completely transformed the night before.

Episode 51 The Holly Frances
And I remember we had to do these trials off the ventilator where I would last for like 15 seconds at a time. They would basically make me breathe on my own and it felt like I was underwater, struggling to breathe about to die. And it was so scary. And I remember crying and hyperventilating and think like, I don't think I'm ever going to be able to do this. I don't believe that I'm ever going to be able to breathe on my own. And something profound that that GBS survivor actually said to me and he actually brought me a sign and he put it above my wall, basically right in front of my bed so I could stare at it. And it was a quote that said courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes it's the quiet voice at days and saying I will try again tomorrow.

And I finished the first year was an episode about writing a book can propel your success as an expert. And I talked about that becoming an author is easier than you think. So if you ever wondered what it takes to write a book, I definitely invite you to listen to Episode 52. And if there were one or two that stood out and really piqued your interest, you can go and listen to the entire episode. All right, my friend. This was it for today.
