Nate Rifkin was a lot like so many people who are struggling with finding their path. After dropping out of college, he had dedicated himself to self-help and pursuing my entrepreneurial dreams. Yet he failed to achieve any of his goals. Worse, he spiraled into debt, drank alcohol every morning, felt lonely, lost, and hated himself.

A few years later – after a brutal bankruptcy and a stint spinning signs on a street corner – Nate quadrupled his income, married the woman of his dreams, and found happiness and contentment.

What made the difference? Oddly enough, Nate discovered an ancient form of meditation that reversed his downward spiral and elevated the levels of success he never dreamed possible.

Recently Nate published a book about his journey called The Standing Meditation. Nate is currently training/studying to become a Daoist priest and get his Doctorate in Chinese Energetic Medicine.

Nate is candid about the pain he went through and gave thoughtful answers to every question. Our listeners will love, relate to, and be inspired by our conversation with Nate Rifkin - as well as receive practical ways to get through their emotional and spiritual roadblocks.

Simply put: Dr. Joe Martin is passionate about helping men win!

The truth is, almost every man wants to be a great husband, an awesome father, and a successful provider for his family. But most men are secretly frustrated or afraid of failing in their role as "family leaders." Because deep down inside, most of us don't know how to be the men we desperately desire to be, because more than likely, we didn't have the "right man" in the home to teach us.  And I was one of those men.  

Dr. Joe is the product of a single, teenage-mother, he successfully survived abject poverty, sexual and physical abuse, father abandonment, anger, depression, rejection, and addiction by graduating from college (first generation, top of his class) at age 20; starting his first business at age 22 (retail clothing store); becoming a university professor at age 24 (youngest in history in the state of Florida); earning his doctorate degree at 28, and writing 2 books by the age of 30, only to lose it all 7 years later due to my addiction to pornography and sex.

Dr. Joe now dedicates his life to helping men, husbands, and fathers write their own comeback stories or at least prevent them from having to write one at all.

Dr. Joe Martin is an award-winning internationally-known speaker, author, professor, and certified "man builder" who helps men win at what matters and frustrates them most as husbands, fathers, and spiritual leaders.

Dr. Joe has authored or co-authored more than nine books, including Man Accomplished!, Are You the Man?, and The Real Man Spiritual Leader Blueprint.  He's also the host of the #1-rated podcast for Christian Men on Apple Podcasts (with more than 1.7 million downloads), and he's interviewed more than 475 men from all over the world from company presidents to prison inmates.

His  life’s story can be summarized in one simple sentence: “He went from rags to riches to ruined to redemption.”  Having it all by age 30, losing it all by age 40, and gaining it all back by age 50 - now hosting the #1-rated podcast for Christian Men on Apple Podcasts!

For our listeners, Dr. Joe has offered a FREE on-demand training video for men called "The 5 Critical Things Every Man Needs to Become the Hero of His Home and the Husband, Father, and Leader His Wife Deserves." 

Carey Portell is an advocate against distracted driving as well as being an advocate for farm safety. After surviving being hit by an impaired driver, Carey has become a public speaker regarding her recovery, the challenges that she endures, and how working as a disabled cattle farmer/speaker has given her purpose again.

Awesome. Awesome. So before we leave our conversation and I think that we could probably go on for another hour, cause I'm, I'm, we've really enjoyed this dialogue here, but we always give our guests the last word there. And you know, we've talked about a lot, we've talked about emotional resilience, physical resilience, spiritual resilience. We've talked about thriving versus just surviving. We've talked about a lot, forgiveness,

Carey is there anything else that you'd like to share with our listeners as to your story and what you've learned that might be helpful for those that are dealing with their own internal struggles

Yeah. I feel that if you will use the support, the positive support system around you, and if you make a daily choice to have a positive attitude, I don't care what you're going through. It doesn't have to be anything remotely close to what I'm going through. I promise that if you do those two things, you will get through any challenge in your life, but you, you have to choose to use them both


Carey is the author of the book Facing Life Head On

She's been battling chronic pain since 1997. First with Endometriosis which resulted in a full hysterectomy and left oophorectomy. Then in 2002, I developed Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD), which is a progressive neuro-autoimmune condition that affects multiple systems in the body and needs to be treated early so that disability does not take over and TMJ.  She lost her physical abilities was bed-bound for years. Using a wheelchair to get out of bed. It took 3 years to get a proper diagnosis and another 4 years to get the proper treatment. Barby knows firsthand how hard it is to continue looking for relief, perfect answers, and then coming up against healthcare professionals who blow you off or do not believe what you are saying could actually be what you’re experiencing. Barby said, "As I search for a cure,  I became my own best advocate".  Barby works sharing the information so that others do not have the same life struggles that she has. Even after seeing over 100 healthcare professionals, having major surgeries, that she didn’t need, complications such as internal bleeding, medication interactions, kidney stones, tumors, severe constipation and so much more – she did not give up or give in!  Barby was tested on her limits and realized they are past the boundaries she placed on herself.  She had to become the Chief of Staff of her Own Medical Team. Barby says, "If I can do it, anyone can."  We all just need support and HOPE!

Combining science, entertainment, and large doses of Australian humor, he speaks from a place of deep compassion and authority on Mental Health issues that are affecting us all in this new normal: anxiety, depression, addictions, personality issues, trauma, suicide, and relationship breakdown. His latest book "The 7 Love Types: navigating love in a fractured world" has just been released.

Dr. Christian can "break down this [mental health] stuff in real terms" (Attorney, Philadelphia).  He uses a lot of ways to do this: humor, stories and I podcast with a live piano in front of me (I used to be a music professor). Mental Health is tough to talk about, but he's into prevention to make this world a happier and less stress-driven place.

We chat about difficult issues - suicide, broken relationships, trauma - but these are handled incredibly sensitively. And what's more important is that there is always hope given, huge DOSES of it in the practical takeaways.
 
Most importantly, Dr. Heim shares his big heart for people's mental health and wants to work hard to prevent mental health breakdowns-this world needs it more now than ever before.

This episode's message will help our audience transform their relationship to power so that they can stop selling out on their personal power and free themselves from self-sabotaging behaviors. It will help them heal toxic relationship patterns and negotiate power struggles more effectively. 

The conversation about power—who has it, who’s been denied it, and who dares to defy established power structures—is critically important for our turbulent, chaotic, and uncertain times.  We have a particular message about women's empowerment, and Christian's book includes a chapter on what it means to be a man in the 21st century, which I think our audience will also find of interest.

It's a unique conversation of the ego-mind, how it works, and how we break free from its self-imposed prison of limitation will also be illuminating and supportive to your audience.

Christian connects his personal transformation story to the empowerment journey and assists our audience to transcend fear and overcome obstacles. He is an immigrant from Cuba who came to the U.S. at age 10 without speaking a word of English, and, as a painfully shy teenager whose adolescence was one long depression, an unlikely person to be writing about heroism and personal power. Christian shares a personal story about how he actually sabotaged his GPA in high school (all A's except for one B) to avoid having to give the valedictory speech! He is an internationally recognized teacher and speaker, including on the TEDx stage.  No matter the circumstances of Christian's life—if a relationship works out or it doesn't; a project succeeds or "fails"—he no longer questions his self-worth.
