“I don’t base my decision off of how I feel, I base my decision off of goals that I set””

-Dan Holguin

I’ve been waiting for this interview for a while, and what a way to start the new year other than with an interview with my friend Dan Holguin! Dan is a published author, a high level fitness coach to entrepreneurs, an American Ninja Warrior competitor, a public speaker, and overall inspirational person. He has dedicated his life to helping 100 million people lead a more meaningful, healthy-minded & physically fit lifestyle.

From the time I heard of and started following Dan, I knew I wanted to have him as a guest on the podcast and he did not disappoint. We cover alot in this interview, listening to it again I had to take some notes to help out myself and my own life. We cover many topics but not limited to:

• How to push harder when you are by yourself and when nobody's looking
• Dan’s story of battling with his depression, job loss, weight gain, gaining 40k of debt, his relationship loss, and how he overcame all of it
• How to get deep with your goals and attaching specific emotions to drive you
• How to get over the fear of being wrong
• What a high performing person is
• Why Dan only takes on 5 clients per year
• The mindset shifts you need to make a personal transformation in any area of your life
• How to get an effective workout in 30 minutes for the busy person
• The framework to have an effective workout (that I have personally used) and how to burn calories all day
• Switching from ‘I have to” to “I’m blessed to”
• How to get a free copy of Dan’s Book

Hello ladies and gents,

Today we have an inbetween-a-sode narrated by yours truly @IamDrCole . I got a lot of good feedback from my last inbetween-a-sode on minimalism that I decided to do another one from the same book, Minimalism Essential Essays, by Joshua Fields Milburn and Ryan Nicodemus. I read through a couple more chapters and thought it would be a cool idea to read a couple of them to you all and share my thoughts on them!

Today I picked 2 chapters/essays and dive a little deeper into them. Here are the essays you will hear!

• Growth through minimalism
• 30 life lessons from 30 years
• Letting go of sentimental items

Enjoy!

“Without Integrity Nothing Works”

-Roy Redd

Roy Redd is an author whose writings include Finish, and The Success Magnet: Cultivate The 5 Values That Attract Success. Roy helps people get out of their own way so they can be who they already are and achieve the results and outcomes they desire. Roy was blessed with certain struggles that made him realize he needed to take responsibility for his own life. Broke, depressed, and on his own, Roy ended up pushing his broken down car two miles on the freeway by himself. That is when he realized nobody was to blame for his problems but himself. After that experience and the gift of self-efficacy, Roy was able to turn his life around.

Today he is dedicated to motivating, and teaching others on how to turn their life around. He is dedicated to sharing his story, successes, and how to’s so that others can achieve their most desired goals. At 26 years of age, Roy went from broke to 6 figures in just a few short years. He was able to rub elbows with great people like Arnold Schwarzenegger, JT Foxx, Wayne Allyn Root, Joseph Michelli, and Donna Karan.

From coaching to teaching people how to get the best out of themselves, Roy also coaches paying clients on how to get out of their own way so they can achieve their desired outcomes, successes, and dreams. Today Roy coaches pro, collegiate, and high school athletes on what he calls UnBounded Performance, dramatically improving athletes performance by making mental distinctions. Also, now as of recently he is a TedX speaker!

• Roy’s story of how he had to push his car 2+ miles
