  • US Army Special Operations to Hunting Human Traffickers with Jeff Tiegs CEO of Skull Games

    Jeff is a retired Delta Force operator and founder of Skull Games.

    He discusses his military career, modern-day slavery in America, how they hunt down human traffickers and how Skull Games, a platform that allows veterans to continue their passion for hunting in a safe and legal way, came to be.

    Jeff and Brandon have been friends for years. Brandon helped Jeff as he transitioned out of the military and found a new passion and purpose in using his martial skills for good.

    The Special Forces motto of De Oppresso Liber (Free the Oppressed) is more than a motto for Jeff, but a direct order.  They continue to collaborate on projects that will protect the vulnerable and free the oppressed.

    ABOUT JEFF TIEGS
    TC (Ret.) Jeff is a Counter Terrorism and Counter Insurgency Expert with over 25 years of service in US Army Special Operations. He has commanded units during combat operations around the globe including Panama, Iraq, and Afghanistan.

    His other positions of significant leadership included Surgical Strike Advisor to the US Army Special Operations Command (USASOC) Commanding General and the Counter Terrorism Advisor to the United States Security Coordinator (USSC) in Jerusalem, Israel.

    He has a MA Degree from the Naval War College in National Security and Strategic Studies.

    As the President of the non- profit organization called Skull Games, Jeff leads a team of dedicated professionals to shed light in the darkness, wherever it may try to hide. He is taking his hard earned skills and putting them to work in order to:
    • Identify, interrupt and restore those affected by trauma.
    • Free the oppressed around the globe.
    • Build leaders that protect the vulnerable.

    The Skull Games Task Force uses Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) to identify victims of sexual exploitation, the predators abusing them, and other Persons of Interest by creating leads that enable law enforcement to interrupt the cycle of abuse and restore survivors of trauma to a life of hope, healing, and freedom.

    Skull Games operates on a global scale to identify and restore victims of sexual exploitation and deliver justice to traffickers and sex predators. We work to free people from their suffering and interrupt the cycle of abuse for future generations.

  • Unlocking Your Potential and Finding Your Own Song with New York Times Best Selling Author Joe Mechlinski CEO of Latch

    You are the actor, director, and producer of your own story.  Joe shares his playbook so you can unlock your potential and find your own song.

    Joe also shares the power of psychedelic therapy, his journey to healing and enlightenment and how it might be a way to unlock ideas and possibilities you never thought possible.

    This thought provoking conversation will push your boundaries and make you better.

    About Joe Mechlinski
    Joe is an award-winning business leader, investor, and a New York Times bestselling author.

    But this is far from where he started.

    Joe grew up in Baltimore’s inner city, with food insecurity and intermittent, unstable housing. He attended the worst high school in Maryland, with no air conditioning and lead in its water. Out of 965 freshmen in his class, he was one of only 235 seniors to graduate.   

    Today, Joe is the founder and CEO of SHIFT, a tech-enabled management consulting firm that has been nationally recognized as a 9x ‘Best Workplace.’

    Joe is on a mission to change the way we work to transform the way we live. He helps leaders and organizations unblock, unlock and unleash the potential and momentum of their people.

    Joe‘s 2013 book, Grow Regardless, became a New York Times bestseller, followed by his second book, Shift The Work, which motivates readers to attain meaningful work-life integration by defining one’s passions. His next release, Who Says, slated for publication in 2024.

    Recently, Joe launched an employee engagement platform called Latch, which uses AI and storytelling to help executive leaders get their teams on the same page... without scheduling more meetings!

    Beyond this, Joe has devoted his life to being of service, especially to his hometown of Baltimore. He is dedicated to helping underserved, at-risk communities, donating and investing more than $1MM to cause and impact partners. He is also a venture partner with Conscious Venture Partners, a group that invests in minority and female-founded businesses.

    Captivating and inspiring audiences on national stages, Joe’s passion is palpable - challenging the way we think, operate, and engage in ourselves, our relationships, our life and our work. Joe’s TEDx talk was ranked #40 most popular out of 15,900 TEDx talks from 2022.

  • Sauna Benefits

    The health benefits of using the sauna regularly have long been believed by people in Finland . Many use the sauna daily as a part of their everyday life. They feel better and live happier and longer lives.

    • Reduced risk of dementia and Alzheimer's disease. 

    • Improvements in pain and range of motion in people with rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis.
