  • Creating Impactful Programs for Student Athletes to Excel in Sports and Life with Ryan Schachtner

    How much money do student

    athletes really make from NIL? According to the NIL marketplace Opendorse,
    the average compensation for student athletes on their platform was
    about $1,300 per deal in Year 1 of NIL. It should be clear that averages can be
    inflated due to very large deals by a handful of student athletes when
    analyzing data like this.  For Ryan
    Schachtner he is an “Award Winning Name, Image & Likeness Innovator
    creating impactful programs for student athletes to excel in sports and life.”

  • An International Perspective on Policing in America Today with: Simon Osamoh

    According to a January survey in USA TODAY  which measured the safest places to live in

    the world, the United States ranks at 129th with a score of
    2.44, marking the country's score "low." Just above the U.S. is
    Azerbaijan, and just below is Brazil. 

    “Civil unrest continues to be the primary

    driver of the deterioration,” the GPI report says about the U.S., noting rises
    in the political terror and political instability categories. “However, there were
    also significant improvements in indicators across all three domains, with
    largest being in the UN peacekeeping funding indicator.” 

     

    Born and raised in England, Simon C. Osamoh is

    the founder and CEO of Kingswood Security Consulting, a Minneapolis based
    security risk management firm. Simon first moved to the United States to Head
    Counter Terrorism at Mall of America, Minnesota.

    The largest shopping and entertainment complex

    in North America where he oversaw counterterrorism and the internationally
    recognized behavior threat assessment team. He quickly established himself as
    one of the country’s leading experts on security at soft targets where his work
    gained national media attention. He spent 14 years as a Detective in England
    working serious and organized crime.

    One of his notable cases includes working with

    the British Security Services during the investigation of the “liquid bomb
    terrorism plot” against the U.S.A in 2006, which changed aviation security
    regulations worldwide limiting the amount of liquids that can be taken onto
    planes. Simon is a former Director of Risk and Compliance having worked for
    three of America’s largest financial institutions that include Wells Fargo, US
    Bank, and Equiniti Trust Company.

    Where he oversaw programs that included risk

    management, business continuity, crisis management, anti-bribery and
    corruption, regulatory compliance, testing programs and third party risk. He is
    the author of three books, 10 Powerful Strategies for Verbal De-Escalation,
    Securing Church Operations and Church Safety Responding to Suspicious Behavior.

    Simon’s work on conversational interviewing is

    featured in the award- winning book How to Stop a Mass Shooting Epidemic by Dr.
    James Densley and Dr. Jillian Peterson of the Violence Project. Simon is a
    writer for the Worship Facility online publication sent to 30,000 organizations
    each month and serves as a member of the editorial advisory board.

  • Guiding You for Healthy Lifestyle with a Nutritious Plant Based Healthy Diet with: Olivier Mankondo

    Research from the National Institute of Health shows that

    plant-based diets are cost-effective, low-risk interventions that may lower
    body mass index, blood pressure, HbA1C, and cholesterol levels. They may also
    reduce the number of medications needed to treat chronic diseases and lower
    ischemic heart disease mortality rates.

    Olivier Mankondo is a keynote speaker, author, weight loss and

    wellness coach with a passion to help people achieve optimal health. He has
    been on a plant-based nutrition since 2016. Just by chance, he happened to be
    watching a program that showed that animal products were not designed for the
    human mechanism. He applied this newfound knowledge in his life and was able to
    cure himself of high blood pressure, severe headaches, chest pains, painful
    joints, back pain, abscesses, and dandruff without the use of any medication.

     

    Before adopting to a plant-based nutrition and the newfound

    knowledge, Olivier Mankondo weighted 100 kilos (15½ stone) and subsequently
    lost 35 kilos (5½ stone) in nine months without surgery or physical exercises
    (gyms, boot camps, etc.). After the change in his diet and lifestyle, Olivier’s
    health has been optimal, and he has never been sick ever since. He shared his
    knowledge and experience about a plant-based nutrition with his wife and
    brother, and they too had witnessed dramatic transformations in their health.

    Both have been able to reverse their chronic diseases and

    are now in perfect health. After witnessing significant transformations due to
    the adoption of a plant-based nutrition, Olivier decided to share this powerful
    message with the world and empower people with this knowledge. He has helped and
    continue to help a lot of people through his message to adopt a healthy
    lifestyle so they can lose their excess weight, prevent, stop, and even reverse
    their chronic diseases.  He joined me
    this week to tell me more.

  • The Border Crisis in America with J J Carrell

    In just the first three

    months of Fiscal Year 2023, over 7,000
    migrants per day on average were apprehended after illegally crossing the border. Those numbers don't include hundreds of
    thousands of aliens who evade apprehension entirely estimated at almost 600,000
    just in Fiscal Year 2022, according to the US House Oversight Committee. 

     

    Illegal immigration touches every fabric of

    American society. This issue needs to be discussed openly and honestly from the
    perspective of real experience and expert knowledge. The first two years of the
    Biden Administration, there has been over 10 million illegal aliens allowed to
    enter our nation. The manifestation of this invasion has already begun to
    surface, and the effects are profound.

    The discussion must be more than showing a video of a conga line of

    people crossing the Rio Grande. Instead, we need a discussion focused on who
    has allowed this to occur, how are they facilitating this invasion and why this
    is being allowed to happen to the greatest nation on earth.

    J.J. Carrell had a 24-year career with the United States Border Patrol. “I

    made my reputation working a decade on the San Diego/Tijuana border as a
    Journeyman and Supervisory Border Patrol Agent. I promoted up the ranks from my
    success running small to large task force units. I retired as a Deputy Patrol
    Agent in Charge which allowed me to have access to and be a participant in the
    forming of strategic law enforcement planning and having an understanding of
    high-level policy development and decisions.

    I have been a guest on several national television shows like FoxNews and

    NewsMax as well as a guest on nationally syndicated radio shows. I will have my
    first book published in June by Post Hill Press.

    I do not shy away from the truth. My stance on the chaotic and lawless

    border is based on experience, knowledge, and facts. “He joined me this week to
    tell me more.

  • Taking the High Road During the Divorce Process with: Andy Heller

    The current divorce rate in the United States is 3.2 per 1,000

    population according to the U.S. Census Bureau. This means that approximately
    827,261 divorces were recorded in 2019, with the total number of divorces since
    2000 topping 8.3 million.  Andy
    Heller is a successful businessman and not a divorce professional such as a
    divorce attorney, mediator, therapist, co-parenting counselor, or the host of
    other professionals that support and service those going through
    divorce. Among his professional accomplishments, Andy co-authored two best
    selling real estate investment books in the 2000s.  While the books
    were well received, Andy had no interest in writing another book.

    That decision changed after his own divorce.

    While navigating through his own divorce Andy read countless support

    books to help him navigate through the process.  While helpful, Andy
    identified a crucial hole in the self-help space for men and women navigating
    through divorce. Andy’s book “Take the High Road, Divorce with Compassion
    for Yourself and Your Family” is his give back with a stated goal of making the
    divorce process easier for those who are considering or who are on the divorce
    path. 

    Several factors make his book truly groundbreaking. First, Andy

    brings a businessman’s objective perspective into his counsel. Andy
    interviewed attorneys, divorcees, therapists, co-parenting counselors,
    mediators, special masters, and others to arrive at advice and guidance from
    the leading industry experts.  Andy presents the guidance in 46
    strategies, tools, and tips that armed with the experience and counsel of these
    experts, the readers can themselves, hopefully their former spouses, and most
    importantly their children land in a healthier place in the months and years
    after the conclusion of their divorces.

    Shortly after the launch of his book Andy was asked what he is most proud

    of upon releasing his book.  Andy highlighted the varied glaring
    reviews from other divorce book authors and expert therapists that serve the
    divorce community.  Such accolades and reviews validated the 8-year
    project and hours of research that went into the creation of “Take the High
    Road, Divorce with Compassion for Yourself and Your Family”.  He joined me this week to tell me more.

  • The Missing Piece of Weight Loss The Piece Between Your Ears with Lizzie Merritt

    The Journal of Clinical Nutrition has compiled data from a

    registry of volunteers, and here are some of their findings. After one year,
    35% of people regain at least 5 lbs. 59% maintained their weight. Only 6% continued to lose weight.

     

    Lizzie Merritt is a Martha Beck Certified

    Wayfinder Life Coach and professional weight loss coach specializing in helping
    people figure out why they don’t do the things they think they *should* do to
    lose weight and feel happy.

    Her philosophy on weight loss is:

    1) Diets are just the worst.

    2) The only way to lose weight is imperfectly.

    3) Weight loss is much more about what’s between your ears than what’s on

    your plate.

    “I wrote a book called You Are a Miracle to

    teach people about all the things that diets don’t tell you. Things like why we
    self sabotage. What to do when your motivation in the dumps. How shame and
    guilt perpetuate slips up (I call it the Shame Spiral of Doom.) And other
    things like how to make failure your friend, how to handle weekends or travel
    or holidays.

    But more than that, it's time for folks to stop waiting to lose weight in

    order to participate in life. Everyone in my view, is a genuine miracle. A
    piece of the Divine. Too many people walk around only seeing what's wrong with
    themselves and their bodies rather than proactively looking for the million
    things that are right about them.

    I want to empower your peeps to feel like maybe it's not their fault if

    they've struggle with weight loss in the past. They're not broken. And the can
    love themselves WHILE they lose weight rather than waiting for WHEN they lose
    weight.

     if you are tired of the same old

    tired advice on weight loss and looking for some real talk on weight loss,
    loving your body, and shining your light NOW, then we should talk.

    One person described listening to me like "chatting at my kitchen

    table with my most non-judgmental, compassionate, and smartest friend." She
    joined me this week to tell me more.
