In this episode, I get to speak with Kennedy Page of KPage Designs. After he created the Forging Life Logo, I had to have him on and speak about what he does.

(11:00) Could the consistent stress be a reason for not remembering?

(13:00) After the military service, Kennedy breaks down his post military work where he chased being a massage therapist, security guard, and designing.

(14:00) Found that designing was always his go-to through it all. Once he realized it, that’s when he committed to doing design work.

(17:00) We talk about who some of his clients are and what they do. Kennedy does a lot of veteran business work

(21:00) Opportunities KPage Designs offer

(23:00) Colors have an important part in the meaning of the designing.

(28:00) The one thing that keeps Kennedy up at night is the movement towards his next goals/vision.

In this episode, I visit a question that was put out on the Forging Life Podcast group. The question was, When you're not okay, how do you shift your mindset so you can be. 

During this episode, I give shout-outs to all those that took time to answer this question. Thank you all for sharing your thoughts and what you do to shift your mindset!

This episode was also streamed into the Forging Life Podcast Facebook Group with live comments. I kept the full version unedited so that you could hear some of the discussion prior to the episode.

(22:00) Subconscious Programing running in the background telling you all the negative things to keep you from taking action

(24:00) Friend was reaching out but Marshal never picked up the phone. After procrastinating on talking with Dustin, Marshal found out that he committed suicide.

(26:00) Was tired of working as a bartender and knew there was more out there for him. Marshal doubled down as an entrepreneur and started making massive results. He thought that if he could have all this money, his life would change. Marshal was speaking on live stages but in 2019, he lost it all

(28:00) He was always going to be real with others and tell them how it was. Marshal thought that if he just served other people at a high level, everything would be fine. The problem was that he was never helping himself first.

(30:00) Addicted to drugs to numb the pain and feel present. After 2019, Marshal left it all to find himself.

(32:00) Facebook Live shout outs from the Forging Life Facebook Group

(33:00) Question from Nancy: How did you get to “I do not care what people think about my past”?

Marshall: Led with good positive energy, showed up and did his job every single day. If I showed up, continued to better my skills, had positive energy and surrounded myself with the right people then what they say wouldn’t matter. If I go live and tell people how it is and be authentic when telling others what I’m going through then what else can they say?

(40:00) Trey: What is your relationship with your father?

Marshal: All kids want from you is to understand and be present. My mom was always there for me and poured her heart out.

Growing up, I would dress the same as my dad, wearing the same stuff as him and all he would do is tell me how I mess up. All I wanted was for him to care. “Hurting people hurt people”. I thought I was going to hate him forever. A month after Dustin passed away, my dad called me and told me he was dying. This is what sparked me with the thought that if my dad could stop drinking, then I can make it as an entrepreneur. My father took the initiative to reach out and say he messed up. Then we had the greatest relationship

(49:00) Marshal: When you put faith into a higher source whatever that may be, there’s a reason for the season. I believe you are in these challenges because the person you are now couldn’t handle the blessings you are asking for. You’re constantly tested by the universe so that you can be ready to accept.

Part 2

(00:00) Trey question to audience: If you were to be diagnosed with something and know that you would be passing away, what would you be doing right now? How would you show up in life?

(5:00) Trey: What is the future of Marshal Live

Marshal: People always knows me as Marshal Live and I’ll always have that. I just got tired of just making courses and entrepreneurship. I made it to the top and I just didn’t feel like I fit in with them. I struggled with my brand as Top Paid Speaker. (He was referencing struggling internally because it didn’t align with who he was.)

(10:00) Marshal created an event and had some really great speakers but 30 days before the event, he realized he wouldn’t be able to bring the audience the speakers would want. All except one backed out.

Marshal: I still hosted the retreat and the people still came out. I offered their money back and told them, if you want your money back, I’ll be happy to give it back. But, if you trust me, I’ll transform your life. At the very end, they were all thanking me for it.

(15:00) Marshal: At this time, I’m going to continue holding these retreats. I’m able to just connect with people. I don’t need all the fancy things.

(20:00) Marshal: People can tell you everything they don’t want but can’t say what they do want. My first event had 137 people there. I was so mad there was only 137 because I had 200 tickets out. No matter what you do, until you know you’re enough, it doesn’t matter what you do.

(22:00) That belief system will always be there to knock you down until you know how to change it. There would be a lot more successful people if they knew how to do that

In this episode, I speak to you about passion and purpose. What is passion and purpose? Have you lost site of your passion or purpose? When I got out of the military these two things, passion and purpose, is some thing that I lost sight of. Without these two it is easy to feel depressed, lost, or even unfulfilled in life. If you have not sat back and find your passion and purpose, I challenge you to do that today.

In this episode, I speak with Glenn Lundy. I first met Glenn on Clubhouse when I was looking for a morning message as I did my morning routines. Monday through Friday, Glenn goes live on all social media platforms to share a message and positivity into your morning. He is a husband and father of 8, author and international speaker. Check out below for ways you can connect with Glenn!

(3:00) Grew up in a blended home with his mom being white and father black. Glenn explains growing up in this situation

(7:00) Started struggling in his teen years with his Identity. While in college, Glenn met a girl and found out that she became pregnant

(8:00) Living the “looks good, feels good” life

(9:00) Work life excelled while his home life tanked. Daughter was taken from him. A warrant was out for his arrest

(11:00) How over time, homelessness eventually makes you invisible.

(13:00) Glenn decided it was time to take his life and walked out into the middle of the ocean.

(14:00) Realized that he is the constant in life. So, he is also to blame for all of the good things

(15:00) Went on a journey of self-discovery

(16:00) Reframed to “looks good, feels good, and is good” then go after it

(20:00) Creating a space online that is a safe space and does a morning show that cracked 830 episodes at the time of this recording.

(21:00) Seeks out others to make sure that they are seen, heard, and understood.

(25:00) Glenn shares some parts of his Morning 5 book to help you win your day

(28:00) The importance of goals and why you don’t write out your goals. Before writing goals, take time to write out gratitude. It gets you in a positive mindset instead of negative.

(37:00) The first step Glenn took was starting a morning show that was first recorded inside of the utility closet.

(42:00) Four words his company goes off of. Rise, Evolve, Impact, Together. Rise with intention and purpose, evolve to the best version they can be, impact others, doing things together

(46:00) The importance of investing time into everything. Don’t spend time because that’s a negative. Just like if you spend your money, your bank account goes down

(49:00) Put everything on a calendar. Even eating breakfast with his kids is on a calendar.

(51:00) What fires up Glenn…
