  • 142: Learn to Master the Talk with Yuri Kruman
    Neuroscience, Unemployment, Finance, Cancer and more with Today's Co-Host:
    Yuri is a Fortune 500 Personal Development Consultant, board member, startup advisor and official member of the Forbes Coaches Council and Forbes contributor. A regular guest on top podcasts such as Entrepreneur on Fire, As Told By Nomads, Conscious Millionaire, and The Blind Entrepreneur, he's also been published or featured on Inc., Fast Co., Time, Mashable, PBS, BBC and numerous top blogs, as well as radio and TV shows.
    More about Yuri:
    As far as crazy stories go, I changed careers a total of 4 times while living with $250K in law school debt in NYC, ultimately building the Millennial startup consulting and executive coaching business I run today, Master The Talk Consulting (MasterTheTalk.com). I've overcome tremendous challenges several times in my life and help my clients do the same through changing their language and psychology.

    With a background in neuroscience and anthropology, I specialize in helping Millennial and Gen Z clients challenge their conventional thinking about how to dramatically improve the trajectory of their thinking, careers, and businesses.

    In just a short 15 months, I've bootstrapped it from a side hobby to a $200K+/year business, as well as getting myself published or featured in Forbes, HuffPost, Inc., Fast Co., Mashable, BBC, PBS, and others.

    My story is crazier than most, even for a Millennial. To get to my "dream career," I started out in a neuroscience Ph.D., left for studying law, got into finance, then into health tech startups and eventually started Master The Talk. In between, unemployment, depression, starting a family, living in NYC with $250K in law school debt, a kid with cancer, and still making life and business work somehow.

  • 141: Unplugged CNY and Retinitis Pigmentosa with Jonathan Clark
    Get Unplugged From Devices, Social Media and Plugging Into Suicide Awareness with Today's Millennial Co-Host:

    Why do people walk and text? Every Like and Share he got, he would take 5 minutes away from his phone...

    Jonathan Clark has an extensive background in dealing with clients and building networks throughout the community. Jonathan just finished his bachelor's degree at Le Moyne for Marketing. Prior to Le Moyne, Jonathan spent 6 years in the manufacturing industry. He has held positions from shipping/receiving, buyer, and ended his career as a Manufacturing Manager. As a Buyer and Manufacturing Manager, he developed key skills to communicate with vendors, review contracts, and negotiate deals. This experience has led Jonathan to be very good at networking with companies, building a clientele list, and developing relationships with his colleagues.

    Jonathan’s drive and passion are truly unbelievable and he continues to push himself further every day. He has publicly said “Set goals for yourself and be sure to stick to pursuing those goals every day. Embrace change, network, and always believe in your own potential”. Jonathan hopes to get his degree and continue building his network and developing relationships with the community.

    We sometimes get so invested in our phones, we forget to look up and start a conversation. One day is the goal, the goal to step away from the phone.

    The powerful buildup to our normal Final Words:

    When you lose somebody so close to you the first time and it becomes something unexpected... and you really don't understand the why or how it happens or the method behind it... You start to doubt yourself. With what Jonathan, his siblings, and his family went through, it is tragic.

    When Jonathan got back to Syracuse, he was in this cloud. He really didn't know what he was doing, he didn't know who he was. He still had to continue on with his schooling, it was his last year to finish his degree, more specifically, his last semester.

    If life teaches you anything, it teaches you how to deal with troubles. It teaches you how to deal with things that will come up that you have no control over. Jonathan thinks the key to dealing with those things that happen, is to understand that those things are not only going to happen to you, but to people as well. You cannot let those things burden you or bring you down. It's easy to give up and that's the hardest thing to understand. It's so easy to just say no, I'm not going to do this, I'm giving up.

    This biggest thing Jonathan learned in that time period and that his family now knows... is that no matter what happens, your family is going to be there. No matter what happens, you cannot let it defeat you. Once it defeats you, that's it. You have to fight! Jonathan will never stop fighting, he will never stop giving up. He will always push and he will always make himself better each and every day.

    Final Words:

    If Jonathan can speak to any entrepreneur or future business owner, you are going to deal with situations that you're not familiar with. You are going to have people come and join your team and are going to leave you because of personal issues. They're going to leave you because they don't like the way you run things. They are going to leave you because you're the boss but they don't believe in your message.

    The most important thing that you have to understand, is that it (your message) comes from your heart. What makes it grow, is from your heart. The passion that you have drives the success of your business. That is all that will drive you to be successful. You can't give up, you lose a purpose, you gain another.

    Jonathan Will Never Stop Fighting!

    Final Words:

    Michael is really just trying to connect the world through food. He truly believes in it and truly loves it. If there's a way that his passion can come out, that connects the two sides of him, then great! Part of him obviously loves the food and the other part, loves being in the restaurant and sweating alongside the fire. Michael believes in what he's doing and he's extremely passionate about where he's going. He's also extremely excited to move forward with Chris Mulvaney as his right-hand man so to speak.

    Bringing joy to someone else has always brought himself joy. He doesn't need to be making a million dollars doing that. But if he can make a couple of dollars doing this, then that's a good day!

  • 137: Wim Hof Inspired Purpose Through Masculine Practice with Travis Roznos
    Your Wim Hof Inspired, Ice Cold, Co-Host of Masculine:

    I'm an ex-corporate ladder climber within the advertising technology space turned catalyst for change in the way the world identifies with and experiences masculinity. Achieving and performing were all that mattered in my twenties until the point where after getting the promotions and making the money, I kept coming back to feeling completely empty. All my intentions and energy were focused on consuming more of things external to myself to build up my identity. A lack of having a father figure my entire life has taken me on this journey of untangling myself from the social pressures we feel as men to be a certain way, to prove our manhood. Taking down the masks socially and emotionally has been my path to freedom, natural expression, and purpose. I've built a community for men to do the same and it's called The Drop. As an embodiment coach and a current Wim Hof Instructor in training, my focus is creating a path for men that will allow them to cultivate the way of being and discipline to carry out a life of depth and purpose.

    Final Words:

    If you're into growth and into leveling up... This pursuit of actually surrounding yourself with other people on the same journey as you, that's the place where change comes in. That's the place where discipline and awareness come in. This is where you can essentially self-author your life.
