August 14, 2024 Healthy, Rich, and Happy with: Jacopo Iasiello
Entrepreneurial success is an individual entrepreneur's unique understanding and
evaluation of personal standards. The allure of
entrepreneurship as a path to financial independence is particularly strong in
today's uncertain economy, where traditional job security is diminishing.
Starting and running a business involves facing numerous challenges and reaping
rewards, requiring specific skills, unwavering determination, and a healthy
amount of courage.

Dr. Jacopo Iasiello, CEO of Luxury and Wealth Group,
initiated his journey in Naples, Italy, where his love for his family and city
fueled his early enthusiasm for entrepreneurship. His passion for business
began at the age of 11 when he immersed himself in books about real estate
investment and entrepreneurship, laying the groundwork for his future success.
Despite an early career in soccer that came to an end due to an injury, Jacopo
made the transition to business and established a thriving jewelry chain at the
age of 18, subsequently expanding his ventures globally. At 22, he ventured
into real estate, specializing in auctions and short sales, rapidly gaining a
reputation for securing lucrative deals. Jacopo obtained his PhD in
International Business Management, authoring a thesis on "Successful
Entrepreneurs" and learning from renowned mentors such as Tony Robbins.

Relocating to Florida in 2011, he completed over 350 real
estate transactions, building a sizable property portfolio. His innovative
M.P.B.E. method—Meditate, Morning, Pray, Biohacking, and Exercise—has
revolutionized his life. His upcoming book, "Healthy, Rich, and
Happy," scheduled for release on December 15, 2024, aims to share this
transformative approach with others.

Jacopo is here to share his remarkable journey, insights,
and the M.P.B.E. method, which have led to financial freedom and personal
fulfillment.

August 09, 2024 Helping Young Professionals Get Promoted & Build Their Dream Careers with: Daniel de Vries
Career clarity refers to having a clear understanding of
your career direction, goals, and yourself in the work environment. According
to the Society of Human Resources Management, a survey found that 34% of respondents
ages 18 to 24 did not think they could use their existing skill sets at work,
33% did not think they could control the next steps in their careers, and 55% said
they were anxious about taking the next step. Career Coach Daniel de Vries
helps young professionals get promoted and build their dream careers. With two
decades of corporate ladder-climbing experience, culminating in senior
management and executive positions, Daniel has turned his focus to guiding the
next generation of professionals on their career paths.

Daniel's own journey was one of self-discovery and
determination. The road to leadership wasn't predetermined for him; he found
his own way, reaching a six-figure salary by 27 and stepping into an executive
role by 36. Along the way, he learned the unspoken truths of career
advancement, knowledge that he believes should be shared, not hoarded.

Having witnessed the hurdles and stumbling blocks that young
professionals face in climbing the ranks, Daniel is dedicated to being a coach
and mentor who accelerates and enriches the journey with purpose and
fulfillment.

August 03, 2024 Encouraging a National Dialogue on Ethical Leadership and Political Integrity with Damien Dubose
I'd like to discuss the reality of the situation versus the
hopeful prospects for improving political dysfunction and ethical integrity in
American politics and society. Here are some relevant facts to consider:

According to a recent report released by U.S. News and World Report – Harris Poll
survey, 86% of American respondents are "largely disappointed" by
leaders in society, with 47% feeling strongly disappointed. Meanwhile, Gallup
News reports that 54% of people believe the state of moral values in the U.S.
is poor, 33% rate it as only fair, and 83% think moral values are declining.
Specifically, 74% of Republicans see moral values as poor, and 97% think they
are getting worse.

Damien Terrence Dubose, a Washington, DC-based financial
professional from Baltimore, Maryland, holds a bachelor's degree in business
finance and an MBA from the University of Baltimore/Towson University joint
program. Dubose, a certified financial planning and analysis professional
(FPAC), has organized and led community groups focused on Jungian personality
types, facilitating discussions on psychological insights. In his debut book,
"America’s Ethical Archetype," Dubose draws upon his analytical
expertise to explore ethics through an interdisciplinary approach integrating
insights from psychology and philosophy. His work advocates for significant
transformations in governance and education, aiming to spark a national
conversation on ethical leadership and political integrity. Damien Dubose is
positioned as a crucial voice for sustainable change in America.

August 02, 2024 Builder and Storyteller for Products Which Improve People’s Lives with Jason Shafton

Having vision and discipline in business means having a game
plan for acceleration and the patience to see it through. When you have the
ambition to start a startup business, establishing clarity is key. According to
the Center for American Progress, the number of startups—firms that are under 1
year old—increased by 16 percent between 2019 and 2023, which is more than 2
1/2 times the 2015–2019 growth rate of 6 percent. Importantly, the number did
not fall noticeably in 2020 and 2021, so the surge is not simply making up for
pandemic-era losses. Jason Shafton is a 20+ year veteran in growth, where he
built billion-dollar businesses at Google, Paramount, and DaVita and scaled
startups like Headspace, Soothe, and Heal (acquired by Humana). At Google, he
scaled the Google Ads platform and launched Google Music and Google Play. He
also spent time leading marketing at Comedy Central, where he launched new
seasons of South Park and The Daily Show as well as new franchises Broad City,
Drunk History and Inside Amy Schumer. After co-founding Heal where he helped
thousands of families get access to better health, he ran growth marketing both
at Soothe and Headspace, scaling those businesses to millions of global users.
Finding himself on speed dial with some of the top tech founders, investors,
and CEOs asking for growth marketing support, he now acts as founder of growth
consulting firm, Winston Francois (named after his dogs Winston and Frank).
Winston Francois works with brands to provide strategic guidance across product,
growth, marketing, management, and organizational design to support sustainable
value creation. He lives outside of Los Angeles with his wife Alyssa and their
two daughters. For more information, please visit https://winstonfrancois.com/.

July 31, 2024 Justin Hesse: Building Stronger Connections Between Law Enforcement, the Community, Fitness Goals
Both the frequency and severity of exposure to critical
incidents are essential factors in the likelihood of developing PTSD. Research
suggests that police officers exhibit higher rates of PTSD than the general
population, with estimates of prevalence between 7% and 19%, according to the
Illinois government Office of Justice Programs.

For Justin Hesse: “I started my career as a police officer
in 2015. I was excited to help people when they were in the most trouble. As I
started to work the job, I realized how job stress can change an officer's
perspective of life, mood, and overall health. I used exercise and nutrition to
relieve stress, but many officers neglected their lifestyle and fitness. In
January 2020, my department had its annual Use of Force training. Our training
officer, who was a part of the Peer Support Team, showed us two statistics that
surprised me. In 2019, there were 151 line-of-duty deaths, ranging from
gunfire, automobile crashes, being struck by vehicles, and heart attacks. In
that same year, there were 239 "reported" suicides. The term
"reported" is in quotes because the number could be much higher, but
suicides may go unreported to avoid the stigma that surrounds suicide. Officers
train their entire careers to avoid being killed on duty, yet officers are more
likely to take their own lives. Law Enforcement Officers also lead most professional
statistics with cardiovascular disease, diabetes, depression, sleep
deprivation, obesity, PTSD, and divorce. With the increasing challenges from a
lack of social support, negative media attention, and political changes, I
feared the statistics surrounding an officer's well-being would only worsen. I
knew from my experience that a healthy lifestyle and fitness can help my
physical and, more importantly, my mental and emotional health. I have a
passion for fitness, and I wanted to share my passion with a profession that I
respect and admire the most.”

July 30, 2024 Transform Your Leadership Achieve Unmatched Performance with: Lisa Goldenthal
If you're a high achiever, it means that you have the
ambition to achieve at the highest heights of your unmatched potential. It
means that you're intrinsically motivated to see others reach the pinnacle of
their own potential. It means you're invested in society's future. Business.com
reports that 57% of America’s workforce considers themselves to be high
achievers. Self-described high-achieving workers in our study seemed to resist
the hallmarks of “hustle culture.” Though they were likelier than average or
underachieving colleagues to show up early to work, they also took more
vacation days than others. They prioritize professional development, volunteer
work, networking, and stress reduction techniques over those who consider
themselves average or underachievers.

Remote workers were less likely than full-time in-person
workers to describe themselves as high achievers. They were also less likely to
expect pay raises or promotions. Though 82% of workers felt they’ve achieved
enough to deserve a pay raise, only 30% plan to actually ask for a raise.
Women, in particular, were less likely than men to expect to receive a raise,
though they felt equally deserving. Generation Z workers (aged 18-26) were
likelier than their older colleagues to feel they deserve promotions at work.
They were twice as likely as Baby Boomers to say they expect to get a raise and
a promotion soon.

Lisa Goldenthal is a renowned executive coach dedicated to
helping high-powered leaders reach unparalleled heights. Featured in ‘The
Executive Coaches Propelling Your Leadership Mastery in 2024,’ Lisa blends
wisdom, passion, and contagious energy to guide executives through disruptive
times and beyond. With a proven track record in corporate training, change

July 26, 2024 Protecting Your Family’s Legal and Cybersecurity Rights with: Jonathan Steele
It is important to have a lawyer assist with a separation
agreement to safeguard your legal rights, including the right to honest
financial disclosure from the other party. Most couples choose a no-fault
divorce, which allows them to end their marriage without proving any
wrongdoing. However, factors such as career choices, parenting differences,
division of household labor, relationships with family and friends, finances,
and health choices can still lead to conflict. According to a Forbes Advisor
survey, the most significant conflicts for divorced couples were career choices
(46%) and parenting differences (43%).

Jonathan D. Steele has had a successful legal career,
starting at Nadler, Pritikin & Mirabelli LLC, and later moving to Beermann
LLP. He has been recognized as a Rising Star by Illinois Super Lawyers
magazine, an honor given to less than 2.5% of attorneys under 40 in the state.
He has also been designated as an Emerging Lawyer by Leading Lawyers magazine,
an accolade given to fewer than 2% of Illinois attorneys annually. This
recognition underscores his expertise in family law and his exceptional professional
achievement. In addition to his courtroom successes, Jonathan possesses a
strong understanding of the Illinois Supreme Court rules and the Rules of Civil
Procedure, as well as technical proficiency in legal practice that equips him
to handle complex legal challenges. His areas of expertise include advanced
trial advocacy, a deep understanding of the rules of evidence, and specialized
knowledge in the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act, Domestic
Violence Act, and the Stalking No Contact Order Act. Jonathan places a high
priority on the privacy and security of his clients, integrating cutting-edge
digital protection strategies to safeguard sensitive information—a critical
asset in today’s interconnected world. Outside the courtroom, Jonathan is
committed to community service, offering pro bono legal aid through JUF
Community Legal Services and contributing to medical research initiatives as a
board member of the Medical Research Junior Board Foundation at Ann &
Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago.

Transitioning from law to cybersecurity, Jonathan has spent
years researching all aspects of cybersecurity and privacy. He has become
well-versed in the Sophos ecosystem, setting up MDM solutions across a fleet of
iOS devices, configuring next-gen enterprise-grade Sophos XG firewalls for home
use, and setting up Synology NAS solutions for self-hosting calendar solutions,
surveillance systems, photo storage, and video hosting. He is proficient in
ZTNA and VPN setup and configuration, end-to-end encrypted solutions,
privacy-respecting software and hardware solutions, and compartmentalization
strategies. His expertise also extends to multifactor authentication, setup and
management of self-hosted IDP solutions, custom DNS filtering and
configuration, website setup, configuration, security and management, and
macOS, Windows, iOS setup and configuration to enhance security and privacy. He
joined me this week to tell me more.
