"I believe the next Elon Musk is a 7 year old girl who can't afford a communication coach, so it's my duty to help her succeed with my free resources." - Brenden K.

After many years of doing presentation case competitions (think professional sports for nerds) in university, Brenden Kumarasamy accidentally developed a skill in helping others communicate effectively and started the YouTube channel, MasterTalk.

Brenden realized everything he was teaching them wasn't available for FREE on the Internet, so he sought out to change that.

Brenden explains that he heard a ton of advice that didn't make much sense like "be yourself" or "get up on stage and imagine everyone in their underpants".

So, Brenden pressed record on his phone, started filming videos on communication in his mom's basement and now the goal is to help everyone master this important skill.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARNAn Overview into the Episode

• Developing good communication skills is about so much more than just helping you give a good presentation.
• Learn secrets to coming across better on Zoom.
• Discover who should, and who should not incorporate humor into their talks
• How to communicate better when you can't see

Julianne Bosch is a CEO to Moms and a life and career coach. She has moved her family 13 times across 4 continents.

How a Mother Took Her First Step on the Moon is Julianne's first book and I must say that the story behind the book is equally as entertaining and inspiring as the book itself.

You can find Julianne scanning travel blogs and posts for inspiration into her next family travel adventure, or she can be heard giggling with her girlfriends about her latest lost in translation moment.

She calls it "yard talk" as most of the greatest mom solutions happen while making the puppy poop at 5 A.M. while drinking coffee with your girlfriend-neighbor in the front yard.

Inspired by former Navy SEAL, William Branum, the topic of today's podcast episode was born! In this life we will all enter our own battles. We will all face our own challenges. And yes, most likely at some point in time we will all endure our own version of the Navy SEAL's Hell Week.

Relationship troubles, failed marriages, workplace drama, health concerns, life-changing disabilities, broken promises, crushed dreams, you name it - This life has it all!

What I’m about to share with you isn’t going to stop the bad times from happening. And it’s not going to make them hurt any less. But what I hope is that somewhere deep down I can spark something inside of you that helps to give you a fighting chance the next time hard times strike!

William Branum is a retired Navy SEAL with 26 years of service. He has served on both traditional SEAL Teams, taught as a SEAL Sniper Instructor and served on Teams that specialized in undersea operations, who’s missions must be approved by the President of the United States. He led major combat operations ranging from protecting the interim Iraqi elected officials to Direct Action missions in Baghdad and across Ambar province.

After retiring from the military in 2018 he realized that he was suffering from physical and psychological symptoms that negatively impacted his well-being and quality of life.

Migraines, severe anxiety, chronic pains, difficulty focusing, difficulty sleeping/falling asleep, and depression are some of the symptoms he struggled with on a daily basis.

And just like so many others, he used alcohol and prescription drugs to mask the symptoms. But then William discovered CBD and it changed his life.

It had such a profound impact on his life that he created his own CBD company called Naked Warrior Recovery.

Today, William Branum is the founder and CEO of Naked Warrior Recovery, a CBD company focused on the recovery of veterans and first responders.

Inspired by my conversation had with content Creator, Billy Thorpe I was intrigued to dive deeper into this idea of being more creative in our everyday pursuits. What I came to realize is that being creative is honestly not just a cool characteristic to have, but rather a vital characteristic that everyone should strive to exhibit in their day to day lives.

The reasons are plentiful, but I narrowed them down to just a handful. I chose the ones that were the easiest to understand and the simplest for me to describe. What this ended up creating is a short list to guide you in your pursuit to live a better, more fulfilled life!
