Elizabeth Batalla has a thoughtful approach to life which shapes and guides who she is today, and how she acts in the world. As a successful corporate star, she learned the tips of what makes people successful, and when she was ready, she made the transition to become a full-time mentor to other women through her own company. In her conversation with Mighty Pete, she shares with him and the audience the small and crucial interactions that changed her life and started her on this new path, her experience in the business world, how she developed her holistic approach to wellness, and how her vision encompasses both the Japanese concept of ikigai as well as common-sense, Western approaches to organization and goal setting. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Each person in the world has dreams that are unique to them, and you shouldn’t let anyone talk you out of achieving what you want in life. Small steps forward, being organized about what you want, and working with and not against yourself can get you farther than you realize. 

• Health and success should be measured holistically, but we do not have to hustle to accomplish everything every day. Aim to check in with yourself about your goals a few times a week and you should have both the space and the structure to make real gains. 

• Trust the feedback that people give you when they have nothing to gain from the interaction. Look for those moments in your career and your personal relationships, they don’t have to be momentous. 

• Similarly, you won’t one day just wake up and live the life of your dreams. You can add one new habit to your daily routine and slowly transform yourself over time. 

BEST MOMENTS 

“For a truly happy life I do believe in a holistic approach, but I don’t want people to feel ‘oh my goodness, this is so much. How do I get all these areas to line up?’ and what I would say about that is, it’s not that you are doing these things every day…if you have that touch point along all those nine areas for, say, a week, you’ll be okay.” 

“The inspiration is being able to make a real, real difference in people’s lives. Through the programs that I offer, through interacting with me, just being able to make that difference in someone’s life…I genuinely don’t like to see people in discomfort. … The fuel for me is to help people switch on that ‘a-ha’ moment.”

“I had enough savings where I could step away from my corporate world without damaging my standard of living – of course I had to cut back on certain things, because I used the money in my savings to invest in the business and get things started and to give me traction to be able to work full-time on it, but I didn’t just walk away with no plan. I didn’t want to build my business from a place of desperation.” 

“Just start. I say that because there’s so much out there, there are so many people with amazing talent, and they are either scared to start, or there is always something that prevents them from starting. Small, consistent steps can make a great change in someone’s life. Start where you are, use what you have, and do the best you can, but just start.”

Sit down and buckle in and get ready for an inspiring and energizing conversation between Mighty Pete and Alex Oliveira, business mentor, entrepreneur, father, husband, and jack of all trades. Alex has lived and experienced his share of tragedy. He’s seen some of his business ventures fail and has reinvented his path repeatedly. A lifelong learner and student of humanity, these days Alex consults and works with other businesses to help them grow through a process called “lead generation”. In this fascinating discussion, Alex shares his philosophy on life and work, what his true priorities are, and how he can be so successful while doing it all. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• If you truly enjoy what you’re doing, it never feels like work. 

• It’s not just about work. Fill your life with passion and fun – whatever that means for you – and you will be a well of endless energy. 

• If you find ways to give back in life, it will find a way to come back to you. 

• If you do what you are meant to do, you will make an indelible mark on this world.

BEST MOMENTS 

• (If he was stranded on a desert island) “I’d still be sketching workflows…because it excites me, and I’d think about the sales and the commerce and (it makes me) think back to when I was a kid, working at the flea markets with my parents.”
• “We’re not going to be here forever, so how are you going to run your life? Are you going to let someone else run it for you?” 
• “Teach your workforce to tell their good stories about their life.” 
• “I want to learn more because it gives me joy to open my mind to things that I never thought were possible.”

ABOUT THE GUEST 

Alex redefines the word “passion”. Originally from Brazil, he immigrated to Florida in the U.S. when he was young, and he still lives about an hour outside of Orlando. He is an entrepreneur who specializes in lead generation and trains other business owners to maximize their own profits. Nothing slows him down – besides maintaining several businesses, speaking at conferences, and his consulting work, he hosts his own podcast, Dadpreneur, and is on the board of the YMCA. On the more personal side, Alex is a husband to his college sweetheart, and a father of four. He and his wife homeschool their kids. Whatever he turns his attention to it, be it in the business or family sphere, Alex does it with 1000% of his heart.

Settle in for a fascinating conversation with Jeff Smith, a person who seems to have done it all: he’s been a professional musician, a pilot, an author, an entrepreneur, a bestselling author. After being in the corporate world for several years, Jeff wanted to help other people with what he’d learned during his career: how setting clear, detailed goals can help others achieve the successes that had previously been outside of their reach. With focus and indefatigable energy, Jeff shares with Mighty Pete his personal definitions of success (which includes rest), and how his journey has landed him in the most interesting, creative places. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• If you follow your heart in your chosen career, your passion will ignite word-of-mouth, and loyal clientele will find you. 
• KPIs help you redefine your personal or professional goals by showing you how to improve on or refine what you did in the past.
• “Success is about having something that you want to achieve and being on the journey and moving towards that. … Success is more about striving towards (something) rather than having done it.” 
• Think about all the fears you have in your life. Most of them are not based in fact – they are based in conditioning. If you are dealing with obstacles in your life, work on what your conditioned beliefs are. 

BEST MOMENTS 

• “If you don’t know where you’re going, you’re like a ship without a rudder.”
• “I began with the advertisements for my book. Because I decided I wanted to know what people would want – I spent three months defining my goal before I’d even written a word.”
• (Talking about a Tom Jones interview he listened to that changed his life) “Not having money changes people. When people have money, they become the person who they really are.”
• “We are born with only two fears: one is loud noises; the other is the fear of falling. Everything else is conditioning.”

ABOUT THE GUEST 

Jeff is from England and is affectionately known as the “KPI Guy”. (Key performance indicators are of course, the quantifiable measure of progress towards an intended goal). Jeff has been a business trainer and coach for over 35 years, and a motivational speaker for over 20. In this capacity, he has travelled the world being the keynote speaker at different conferences. Jeff has written seven best-selling books about KPI and provided expert financial consulting to hundreds of corporate and individual clients. Jeff also has a valid pilot’s license and donates his time and his aeroplane to Civil Air Patrol. He also finds the time to be an Ambassador to the United Nations, registered in both Geneva and New York. While his experience is international, Jeff and his business interests remain based in the U.K.

Join Mighty Pete for this vulnerable and honest discussion with the Liz Rutledge about mindfulness, success, and achieving one’s dreams. Liz is open about how she’s spent her entire life “following breadcrumbs” from one interest to another (for instance, when she was younger, she didn’t think she would have children, now she has three) but has built a purposeful life just the same. Having just turned 50, she thinks it’s been her best year yet in terms of self-knowledge and understanding. One of Liz’s passions in life is mentoring school-aged children as a mindfulness teacher, and she also is a proponent of living as lightly on the earth as possible to make the biggest impact on climate change. She lives her life by example, filling it with love, presence, and service. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Just because you’re on the right path, or doing what you’ve already dreamed of, doesn’t mean you won’t have moments of self-doubt.

• A lot of the public dialogue around any issue seems quite black and white, because polarization drives profits. If we try to see all sides of an issue it can strengthen our sense of compassion.

• A benefit of getting older is an understanding of what our true core values are, letting go of any self-consciousness about how we present in the world, and streamline our lives so we can live as aligned to our values as possible. 

• Writing down our goals helps to manifest them. Part of Liz’s daily practice is to write her 17 goals and dreams down every morning, and then letting go of the process. The writing down helps to keep her spiritual energy focused. 

BEST MOMENTS 

“When we’re kind to others we get a little kickback of that kindness, because it feels good to do good.”

“Every day I choose to be a wife and a mom. Every day I choose to continue to encourage people to be more caring about themselves and the planet. And there’s power in that – recognizing the power of choice. It isn’t always easy, but whether we’re fated or not, I think we do have some control over our path.” 

“Getting out of our comfort zone, getting out of our home country, helps us understand others better.”

“It’s not necessarily about how you make your dream come true, if you still make your dream come true, it still happened.”

ABOUT THE GUEST 

Liz Rutledge is first and foremost a mom, a sister, a wife, and a friend. Beyond raising her three children, she stays very connected with her community: volunteering, and teaching mindfulness programs to middle schoolers. Liz is a graduate of the Harvard Extension School, a writer (of novels, essays, and more) and the founder of SustainableThree.com (a website which teaches its visitors to be mindful of themselves, the planet, and each other). Home for Liz is in Denver Colorado.

You will want to hear this conversation between Mighty Pete and the one and only Regina Huber: a woman who spent much of her professional life in corporate management, and who has transitioned into being a career coach for women who want to make bigger gains in their own professions. Regina is certified in various training methods, has created, and founded her own training courses, published a best-selling book, and has been the featured speaker at several conferences. Beyond achieving irrefutable career success, she has forged her own path, and understands how important it is for each of us to live the lives that we were destined for. She shares with Mighty Pete how she figured out what life she was supposed to live, how to turn challenges into advantages, and how to fill your life with the passion that will drive you.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• When she was starting out, Regina did not really have a role model for who she wanted to be, so she found one: herself. She understands that everyone’s goals are different and connects with each of her clients on their level, to adapt her teaching skills to their unique vision.
• Her business model and public speaking are both very connected to heart. That is the path towards success and a more spiritual fulfillment.
• Always be learning and have a “beginner’s mindset”. This can be applied to both Huber’s business and personal life (she finds great satisfaction in speaking to in-person audiences, but has had to adapt since Covid; also, she does not consider herself a great dancer but tries to dance four times a week). Being flexible and open-minded attracts joy into your life.
• She has had a unique and interesting life, led without much of a template – but she wants to change that and provide a formula for those people who may want to live a peripatetic life like hers. Giving back to the community is a big part of personal integrity.

BEST MOMENTS

• “I always tell my coaching clients that…we will be working on situations, specific situations, so in this sense the coaching is situational – but whatever you learn through those situations, as we go through them, that will help you transform, so then you take it with you for the rest of your life.”
• “I believe when I (lived) my most painful experience, I did not follow my intuition, I did not really listen to my heart. I wanted to do this – the collaboration with that person was probably the easy way out to not doing it on my own.”
• “The biggest part of leadership is trust-building. We have to be able to build trust in all directions. … (Leaders) need to be transparent, they have to have integrity, they have to be courageous…. They want to lead by example, not by words.”
• “I think most of us want to make an impact in our own ways. There are so many ways to make an impact, we don’t have to have the spotlight.”

ABOUT THE GUEST

Regina Huber was born in a small farming town in Germany, but her adventuring spirit has taken her to five different continents through her work in the corporate world. She has lived and worked in the U.S., Spain, Argentina, and Brazil, as well as stints back in Germany. Her transition to becoming a professional career coach was gradual and natural. With a natural flair for public speaking and direct connection with her audience, Regina specializes in helping women in mid-level positions in their own careers achieve their next level of success. Beyond being a career coach, Regina is a best-selling author, nomad, and founder of her own teaching practicum: Transform Your Performance. Although she is back on the road again for now, she and her business are currently based in New York.

Cyrina Bullard breaks all the rules and stereotypes. As a second-generation certified pharmacist, she has long been interested in helping other people manage their pain and live healthier lives. After two traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), she had to teach herself how to walk, talk, and function again. Then, post-initial recovery, she dealt with daily headaches and had to retire from practicing pharmacy. She describes her second career as a spiritual calling. One night, something compelled her to look up the domain name, “Catching Happiness dot com”. It, for some reason, was free, so she immediately paid the $38 required to register it, and over time realised that she wanted to continue helping people, this time by training them to live more courageously, more mindfully, and more empathetically. Join Mighty Pete and Cyrina for an inspiring conversation about hope, perseverance, and the true definition of success.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Resilience skills can be developed over time and through practice. “Whole grain health practices” such as sleep, eating healthy, and meditation can have measurable effects on our bodies. Our communities can be a real resource, as well – ask around what works for others. By sharing information, we become stronger and build connection.

• We only live one life, so we might as well make it a great one. What are your passions? What lights you on fire? What is holding you back from living the life of your dreams?

• Believing in science and fact-based knowledge does not preclude believing in miracles and serendipity.

• We are human beings, meant to experience the world and all it has to offer, but we are also here to be of service to others and be a contributing member of the human community.

BEST MOMENTS

• “How can we empower each other to live our best lives, because we don’t know what tomorrow holds? I (want to) help people be conscious about what activities they introduce to their days, because you can’t control what happens in your life, but you can control how you react to, or respond to what’s happening in your life. We need to be able to adapt to situations and rise.”

• “I think we learn and grow as we go, but it’s a process, becoming our best.”

• “I’ve studied a lot about the brain, since I’ve had these two brain injuries: how I can optimize my brain health, and none of it has to do with drugs. A lot has to do with meditation, exercise, the way you eat, do you sleep? … There are so many things we can do naturally to help with our physiology, because our bodies are so intelligent.”

• “I’m a very resilient person, so I’m capable of allowing myself to move through challenges…I feel like I’m on this path and I’m capable of feeling guided and listening to that inner voice.”

ABOUT THE GUEST

Cyrina Bullard is a certified HeartMath trainer and a Life Mastery consultant, helping people discover their true vision for their lives and cultivate the courage to pursue it. She is a member of the Continuing Education committee at the College of Pharmacy and at a consumer advisory board at Craig Hospital. She practiced as a pharmacist for many years, until a series of traumatic brain injuries forced her into early retirement; but from that serious setback she realised that she could still help people by sharing her story, and the health and resilience skills she learned along her way back to life. Cyrina loves to travel, have a glass of red wine or some dark chocolate, and tries to live in the present moment as much as possible.

Gail Rudolph has a unique, holistic view of personal power and how it changes the world. She tells Mighty Pete how little tricks of body language and understanding how to stay grounded during any situation can directly affect the outcome.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Understanding how ‘power dynamics’ are a give-or-take scenario most of the time, and how you can achieve the outcome you want out of most situations by understanding when to exhibit your ‘active’ versus your ‘passive’ power.
• The “Scarcity Principle” can increase your ‘value’ and make people more inclined to listen to you, or value what you have to say.
• The obstacles or challenges you encountered as a child can often lead us to our purpose (for example, how Gail’s position as the youngest child in her family made her want to study how to get people’s voices heard).
• A negotiation can be curated so that the outcome is beneficial to both people.

BEST MOMENTS

• “Powering up is a choice we make to step into a fuller presence such as making direct eye contact or taking up that space that I talked about. Powering down, on the other hand, is intentionally changing our stance – expressing empathy, or giving others the chance to interrupt you, or using a softer tone of voice. You see, powering down has often been viewed as being very bad, or something we don’t want to do, but I’m here to tell you that powering down can be a very effective tool, as long as we intentionally use it and hold our power to make other people feel at ease.”
• “The law of power is ‘the only person you have control over is yourself.’ But if you can control your interaction with other people, you can change their experience with you.”
• “We confuse boundaries with power all the time. … Boundaries are simply the limits that we’ve set around our energy, our money, or our time.”
• “When we look at life as an opportunity, everything is a learning experience, there’s no failure in life…we have to learn the lessons to get to the next level. We don’t fail.”

ABOUT THE GUEST

After years in the executive world managing and mediating power dynamics in the office, Gail Rudolph became a Cialdini Method Certified trainer and executive coach who helps businesspeople find their voice and attain a higher level of success. Gail has a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, a Leadership Certificate from Stanford Graduate School of Business, and a master’s degree in Human Services Administration, and she uses a scientific, results-driven approach to understanding the nuances of communication and human behavior. She is currently based in Palm Springs California.

Tara Chatzakis has always been a free spirit. Born in Yorkshire, she was married and raising a family in Greece when she had an epiphany: she could leave her dysfunctional marriage if she wanted and create a new life for herself. She relocated herself and her three daughters to the Isle of Wight, and shortly after, realized she wanted to help other women to empower themselves. She began to take accreditation to become a business coach and entrepreneur; due to her love of people and her extroverted nature, she also found a niche in podcasting and motivational speaking. In this episode of the show, she and Mighty Pete discuss what it’s like to wake up one day and decide to take your life in your own hands. How the smallest of decisions can be pivotal, and how courage can be found along the way.

• We only have one life, so it’s worth it to take chances on big dreams. Tara can help isolate the root causes of her clients’ insecurities and give them an action plan on how to move through them, thus releasing the obstacles holding them back from achieving their highest potential.
• The first step in achieving professional or personal goals is to be honest with yourself and what truly is motivating you.
• There is only one of each of us – so one of our life’s missions must be figuring out who that person is and being brave enough to let that person out – and a life coach can help. We all need mentors and will use them at different points in our lives.
• Training your brain through neuroplastic techniques and affirmations can help us reset the negative soundtracks we may not even be aware that we are playing.

BEST MOMENTS

• “Everyone has so much potential within them to do great things, but you just get used to living every single day like the Groundhog Day movie, every single day is exactly the same (but it doesn’t have to be).”
• “The more you speak about what you’re doing, the clearer you become on what you’re doing.”
• “The ego, bless it, is there to protect you, isn’t it? It wants to keep you safe. If it’s unknown, it’s going to question whether you need it, whether you it’s important, whether it’s expensive, whether it’s right for you, and all these things because it doesn’t understand what the outcome is going to be because it’s new and it’s scary. But you must let that go, and trust.”
• “You could spend your whole day worrying about something, and worrying that you’re not going to be able to do something, and then when you get to that point it’s all well and good anyway, so why did you waste all that time getting anxious about it?”

Scott Jeffrey Miller is a whirlwind: a whirlwind of energy, of focus and motivation, of passion. He sits down with Mighty Pete for an intimate conversation about what makes him tick, how he’s been able to become so successful in his professional career, and the moment in his life where everything changed. From Florida to Utah, from Disney to Franklin Covey, from project manager to author, Miller is the epitome of “if you fall down seven times, get up eight.’ He is not shy about discussing his failures or the many life lessons he’s learned along the way to the top of the game. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Being honest about one’s failures takes away the mystique of success: it is a lot of trial and error, a lot of practice, a lot of hard work. 
• A key to career success is organization: making a detailed plan of approach and being disciplined to hit each of the goals on the way. 
• Be ready to pivot. Miller was not a father or husband until his 40s, but then he met his now-wife, fell deeply in love, took a leap and now his family is the most fulfilling part of his life and a large part of his legacy. 
• Sacrifice to have the life that you want. Miller rises at 4 a.m. every morning to do a little work before his family gets up. 

BEST MOMENTS 

• “I live my life from the lens of, not ‘I have to’, not ‘I ought to’, but ‘I get to.’”
• “I don’t live my life enslaved by my detractors.”
• “Successful people are fairly willing to do what unsuccessful people aren’t.”
• “The more people you know, the more you realize how fragile life is.”

ABOUT THE GUEST 

Scott Jeffrey Miller is the entrepreneur who successful entrepreneurs look up to. He was hired in his mid 20s by the Walt Disney Company and helped design Celebrationn City (Walt Disney’s original version of The Epcot Center). After he left Disney, he was hired by Franklin Covey and rose through the ranks to become first their chief marketing officer, and then the vice president of thought leadership. After a 25-year career, Miller is now (semi) retired and a four-time best selling author, motivational speaker, business coach, husband and father. He lives in Utah with his family.

Mighty Pete sits down with motivational speaker and author Phil Barth for a conversation about how, often, humans can fool themselves into believing they are invincible. Before 2015, Phil was a man addicted to stress. He worked 60-hour weeks, drank pots of coffee every day to keep going, and survived on very little sleep. Then he had a heart attack which landed him in the hospital. As part of his recovery, his doctors suggested that he take a week off work every three months. It was during one of those weeks off when he began to write a daily gratitude list, which provided the seed for his second book, Great Things Happen Every Day: Finding Joy with Family, Friends, and Banana Milkshakes. Phil is a deeply spiritual person whose goals post-2015 have become spending more time with his family, being of service in the ways he can, and continuing to cheer for all Cleveland sports teams.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Gratitude is a muscle, or a practice that can be grown and strengthened over time. He has trained himself to look for the great things in life.
• Often, the moments that we appreciate in our lives are small and revolve around the people in our lives – the human connections we have.
• Barth faced his own mortality more than once, but it was only after he had a health crisis that he nurtured his spirituality and truly questioned the foundations of his life.
• Just like how our “best moments” can be small, we can reconnect with our loved ones over time, through small and meaningful gestures.

BEST MOMENTS

• “When I started looking for what was positive in my life, when I started looking for what was positive around me – people, places, etc., my stress just lowered because I wasn’t focused on what was going wrong.”
• “What is important to me (now) is a healthy, happy family…(and) to give back.”
• “Is this the place I’m supposed to be right now? Is this the thing I’m supposed to be doing? You better believe it.”
• “I’m so lucky for so many reasons, not the least of which is: I survived.”

ABOUT THE GUEST

Phil Barth was born and raised in Ohio and attended Bowling Green University, where he graduated with a degree in Computer Science. He has had more than a few brushes with fame: as a contestant on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, he won $32,000 in prizes, and he was also a Top 10 finalist in the Toastmasters’ World Championship in 2011. In 2015 everything changed for him when he landed in the hospital due to a “minor” heart attack (although it did not feel minor), which led him to reassess and redesign his life so that it was more in line with his core beliefs. Thankfully, Phil is still alive and lives with his wife and three sons in Ohio. He maintains a busy public speaking schedule and may be working on his next book.
