Just Dumb Enough Podcast

Who am I? That's a question that can plague nearly anyone on the planet. You know your name, where you come from, and what you do day to day. But have you done an inventory of your history and life experiences to see what made you?

My guest today is Urmi Hossain. Urmi currently works as in the financial services industry of Canada. But before that she was just a Bengali girl growing up in Italy and wondering which cultural norms she was supposed to be emulating. What things were true to her? And what things were just expected? It was a journey through life which took her several decades and moving across the world to figure out.

Please take a brief moment to rate the show five stars on iTunes, Spotify, or Audible. 

I'll see you all either Sunday night for the 7pm (Pacific Time) live stream on Podbean, or Monday when the next episode goes up. 

When we think of professional athletes, we imagine the fearless performers on giant fields, filled with determination and lacking any self-doubt. But they are people just like you and me, with many experiencing mental challenges which impact their performance.

My guest today is Michael Ceely. Michael is a Licensed Psychotherapist working primarily with athletes to help them metaphorically overcome hurdles. Mix a couple decades of experience in that with his past as an Olympic level athlete and you get someone who understands the mindset thoroughly. We talk about lot's of interesting ways to confront performance issues that I've never heard before. 

Michael is also a new listener to the show, as we mention a little. If you want to be like Mike, talking about your passions, email [email protected] 

Last time I'll bring this up, the one year episode is going to be up next Monday and I'm going to record live on Podbean Sunday Night starting at 7pm. Please send your questions in ahead of time, that way I can make sure I find time to answer them. [email protected] 

Do you feel safe with the security you currently have on your home? Do you want to keep that feeling? If so you may not want to listen to my expert break down just how easy it is to break into your house from his time as a legal burglar.

My guest today is friend of the show and of myself, Chad Amodeo. Chad spent several years as a burglar for hire, or as the layman call it, a locksmith. He puts on display that you don't have to put in decades to know your craft, and serves as a beacon for any other listeners who might want to come on the show, but don't feel super confident about their experience level.

Chad also deserves a round of applause, because after hearing that I had multiple guests cancel or no show last minute and seeing how stressed I was about not having an episode ready, he volunteered despite it being after a long work day and late at night.

We also recorded on an older mic in my dining room instead of in a proper studio space, sorry the audio quality is a little lower this episode, but at least there is an episode.

Lastly, although I bring it up later on, the one year anniversary of this show being launched is coming up at the end of the month, so I'm prepping a big episode where I talk about all the successes, hardships, and answer audience questions.

Can you imagine having a car that's 300,000 times more efficient than your current one? To give you a hard number, it like 20mpg vs 240 times around the earth per gallon... While we are nowhere near that with cars, that is exactly the efficiency difference that my guest today has created when he designed a new system to streamline the commodities market. Don't worry if that all sounds over your head, it was way over mine and you can laugh at me for how many times I was wrong throughout this interview.

My guest today is Noah Healy. Noah refers to himself as a recreational mathematician, which instantly makes him way more intelligent than me. He is also a marketplace design consultant and has developed exactly that new system I referenced at the very start. Usually I do a bit more breakdown into guest background and history, I stopped trying to understand all his qualifications after I saw nuclear science as an "early life" degree.

August ended exactly the way I read it last time, so no need to repeat it.

Also Canada off of the top 5 for I think the first time in a very long time.

Next Level University is a global top 100 podcast with over 1,000 episodes and an audience in over 125 countries. That's a really solid teaser without me even needing to make a clever joke or observation.

My guest today is Kevin Palmieri. Kevin is the CFO, Co-Founder, and co-host of the Next Level University Podcast. He and his co-host do an episode every single day to literally better the lives of those who listen. He's an incredibly nice guy with tons of information and insight, so listen for yourself!

We've all heard the statistic that 50% of all marriages end in divorce. But do they have to? What if all those people could rediscover what made their relationship special to start with?

My guest today is Lane Stokes. Lane has been a practicing marriage counselor for nearly four decades. After seeing person-centered psychotherapy fail to respond and resolve issue fast enough, he elected to build an alternative that hones in on the processes that make people fall in love on a chemical level. Understanding that showed him how to help people fall back in love even after the chemicals that brought them together were long gone. Today he shares some of that to help the listeners reconnect with their loved ones and strengthen their bonds.

In case you missed it last week, I'm inviting any listeners who really know or care a lot about something come on the show! Just send me an email: [email protected] or on any of the social pages. It can be about anything at all!

August Official Top Countries (so far):

Do you enjoy the unknown of every new day and experience? Or would you want to know, if I could guarantee beyond a doubt, that I knew what would happen to you?

My guest today is Corbie Mitleid. Corbie is a Certified Tarot Master and has been practicing this master craft for five decades now. She's an incredible spring of knowledge and really put on a hell of a show today teaching us all about this frequently misunderstood art.

CorbieMitleid.Com 

I'm not sure why tarot as an idea has always fascinated me. Maybe it's the mystery, or the ability to see forward like we all wish we could after we make big mistakes. For me, it sits in this zone between a religious experience, true sorcery, and an old school magic show. Either way it was a lot of fun to talk about and I hope you all enjoy it.

Do you remember any of the promises you made when you were a kid? Did you keep them? Did you know either way they are impacting your life?

My guest today is Kathi Sohn. Kathi's husband worked his whole life developing the Body Memory Process, an alternative to the traditional psychotherapy of lying on a couch and having someone listen to you talk. This instead tracks back to your childhood, and helps you decode why you do some of the things you do now without so much of the guesswork. Because who else will ever know your life better than you?

In case you missed it last week, I'm inviting any listeners who really know or care a lot about something come on the show! Just send me an email: [email protected] or on any of the social pages. It can be about anything at all! You might just be really good at driving tractor, or really into collecting action figures. Anything that you are interested in and would be willing to teach me about.

Consider playing this show for your dogs or cats when you're not home. I've been told it's very mellow.
