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!

Billy Thorpe has been creating content since he was just a "youngster". From making bad home music videos to evolving into a weekly tv show producer for several years. However, Billy's journey as a "full-time" content creator didn't start until 2020 when he was forced to close a t-shirt printing business that he launched in 2013. At the time Billy was only podcasting as a hobby. During the first 30 days of 2020 he took phone call after phone call of people inquiring about how to create a podcast or a live show. One of those phone calls turned into a collaboration podcast that would truly set Billy off on a new journey in his life! And as they say, the rest is history!

Change is inevitable, but knowing as adults when we're ready to make that change is what is uncertain. As children we are constantly faced with new obstacles, new choices, new decisions that have to be made. And as children we face these roadblocks with intention and bravery. Ironically as we grow older we seem to lose that sense of bravery and instead allow feelings of worry, stress, and uncertainty to take over our minds.

Perhaps it's time we all start facing decisions with the mind of a child... Embracing change, seeking out obstacles and charging at them head on!

But still yet, the question persists... But how do I know when it's time for me to make a change? Well, inside of today's episode I am breaking this down into 5 relatively simple questions. The answer to these 5 questions is what is going to answer that looming question... But how do I know when it's time to make a change?

1. When is it that I finally get to really start enjoying life?
2. Is life starting to feel like that old pair of jeans that you struggle to button?
3. Do you dream for 5 o'clock on Friday and have nightmares about 8 o'clock on Monday?
4. Do you ever feel like you're not swimming through life, but instead stuck in the middle of the pool just tredding water?
5. When people talk about making a change, do you find yourself getting defensive?

Kevin is offering a completely free, no obligation coaching call for anyone who is feeling stuck, struggling to make a change, and would just really love to have someone to talk to.

In that awkward stage of life when you're not young, but you're not really old either... When life's timeline hasn't followed your life's timeline at all. When you almost feel like you're going through a Midlife Crisis, but know you're certainly not old enough for one of those! It's in this beautiful crazy period of life that we find ourselves sitting down to talk with Jennifer Villamil.

Inching closer to 40 years old during a pandemic while also replanning her wedding multiple times due to COVID, 2020 and 2021 made Jennifer Villamil reevaluate her life choices in search of positive change.

To sort through this time in her life, she launched My Almost Midlife Crisis Podcast in January 2021 to discuss the challenges of this time in our lives and how the midlife crisis doesn't have to be negative. The midlife crisis can be time for positive change and should be celebrated!
