In this episode, we have invited Tony Martignetti, a leadership coach specialized in working with leaders and their teams to navigate the transition and unleash their true potential. Tony is known to help leaders seek clarity to be energized, unstoppable, and lead with a powerful presence. Today, Tony shares his gained lessons to unlock people’s true potential, positively impact and fuel their inspiration.

Tony’s Podcast

[1:06]

Tony felt like everything comes from this place of trying to connect with what lights people up and inspiration is the word he felt like using to connect with that

[1:18]

The podcast, Virtual Campfire, came from this idea of wanting people to come together, sharing honest, really authentic stories about transformation along their path. Tony originally had this idea as people coming together, not a podcast; it would be something where people in a room are sharing around a theoretical campfire, warm, inviting stories shared in person.

Journey of Transformation

[2:50]

Tony loved creating rooms that were filled with emotions or feelings that people could experience. He was creative as a child, but along his journey, he started being told by adults that he needed to do something that was more in line with how to make of living, and make a living through art was hard.

[3:48]

Along his journey, he realized that he wasn’t doing his soul’s purpose. Despite many great achievements, he felt that something was missing.

Creative Outlet

[5:25]

Tony was an artist who loved to draw and paint. His crafts were mostly about environments and the worlds. Being artistic, Tony saw this as an ability to see things differently and continuing to enhance this ability.

[6:20]

He applied his talent in art to help people to see themselves differently and to be able to craft messages that connect with people in a way that says I can see the world differently for you.

Living the Best Out of Life

[9:21]

Life is a piece of art, and you want to make it a masterpiece.

[10:17]

Tony wanted to look at his problem differently. Thus, he had a convergence of ideas where people can have different perspectives even if only having one body.

Mindset

[13:02]

When Tony started thinking negatively, that thought pattern starts to diminish your ability to create what you want.

[13:25]

What he always does when in this situation, he often takes it as a coaching question. He finds the reason why he should keep moving forward.

[17:55]

Tony emphasizes the need to surround yourself with the right environment to nurture. Environment pertains to the people that surround you. You want to make sure you’re in an environment that nurtures you and does not starve you.

Advices

[19:40]

Tony was often asked for advice by people who wanted to enhance their work and leadership skills but were unsure what they desired.

[20:15]

His goal was to find out the underlying desire as to what drives people. This concludes with them having a different perspective as to where they are headed. Tony finds happiness when people start shifting into a new direction where your goal becomes more real.

Healing

[23:08]

When Tony started his podcast, he discovered what's it like to dwell on people's stories and realize that one of the things he needed most was to deal with his own story and own his story.

[23:42]

Your past could sometimes hold you back from being that full person you could be. To move forward, you must acknowledge and embrace it and use it to move forward.

In this episode, we have invited my friend Tate, a Professional Wrestler, Musician, and Actor. Today, Tate will share his inspiring journey to being a wrestler. He will talk about the light and darkness that he experienced and how he fought these battles.

Falling in Love with Wrestling

[01:26]

As a kid, Tate felt he wasn’t too cool and he struggled to fit in. Wrestling became interesting to him during his younger years. It made him live vicariously through the good and bad guys. It gave him certain confidence and excitement. It created an interesting escape for him. That’s when he got infatuated and obsessed.

Wrestling School

[05:10]

When Tate was 14 years old, he would go to shops and read magazines where he found an advert about a wrestling school in London. Living in poverty, h didn’t have much money so he begged and pleaded, and fortunately, they let him in.

Getting Lost

[07:50]

Tate had an angry personality as a kid. During his wrestling years, he fell into drugs and alcohol, thinking these would make him look cool. He said all these things were a bad mix and doing too much of all the silly stuff caused issues in his family that led him homeless at some point.

Road to Recovery

[19:04]

Tate described strong internal communication when he attended a ceremony.

[20:46]

There was one big message that quickly made him stop smoking and doing drug abuse. Within six months, he recalled that he was a completely different person.

[27:40]

The only thing you fear is comfort. If you're in an uncomfortable thing, then you're learning something.

Presenting Yourself Again

[32:26]

Tate mentioned that there's such a grand spectrum of personality types. When he became aware that he was going to become a cliché, he thought of presenting himself in a way that seems more respectable, so a grander stage of people will hear and see him.

Radical Honesty with Yourself

[38:01]

According to Tate, he couldn't deny the fact that there was darkness as well. He has come to an understanding that there has to be a balance. You have to be comfortable with darkness and light.

[41:15]

He advised acknowledging that all comes from you. It's your responsibility and has nothing to do with the outside world. Recognize the negative things and emotions within yourself. Know when to stop them and then follow the light and its source.

Back to Passion

[44:14]

Tate did training sessions because he always asked himself and wondered to come back. But other forces are telling him that the timing was not right.

[44:48]

He felt it was impossible to be back to wrestling again because he went far down to drugs

[45:40]

When Tate finally went back to wrestling, he was ear to ear beaming and giddy. He recalled that it was one of the most beautiful moments in his life.

[46:37]

It’s your choice to look at things in a positive way to commit yourself.

In this episode, we have invited Olivia Fermi, a counselor, coach, teacher, and writer. Her natural gift is to help people heal and release limiting patterns. Olivia has 20 years of experience in her expertise. Today, Olivia guides and explains the specific things that she does and how does it help people to heal.

What is spirituality?

[00:36]

The latest definition that Olivia heard was that spirituality is our humanness. There is something so human and grounded about spirituality. Being able to connect different philosophies, sciences, and ways of being altogether to make it sound like one whole unit.

The Diamond Approach

[02:31]

It was started by a man from Kuwait named Hamida Lee. When he was 18, he wanted to understand the universe, but then he started going to different spiritual teachers and he jumped out of physics and went into spiritual development and personal development. And the heart of the diamond approach is inquiry. It's like at this moment, what am I experiencing?

[05:19]

It's like embodied listening. So when we sense in our body, it's like how we know where we are in space.

How does Olivia’s grandfather create an impact on how she sees the world?

[09:54]

Olivia’s grandfather did the first credible theory of the week. He was poking around without him. It was like bombarding them and breaking them apart and doing all these things. That's how Olivia ended up working on the Manhattan project. In their family, he was like a god, and he and Rachel Carson who started the environmental movement in the United States were like the two gods in their family.

[11:04]

When Olivia discovered the diamond approach and inquiry, she wanted to bring it back out into the world.

Thoughts on Blockchain

[15:47]

With blockchain, everything is transparent. Everything gets recorded. So you can't manipulate systems, you can't manipulate money. Every transaction that you make is going to be linked to your own mark in the blockchain. With blockchain, we're more protected because data is private.

[21:13]

As a collective, we usually start acting on when things actually end up getting worse. Our governance systems are so clunky. When you talk about blockchain and the speed of it and the VI, the vision of it is that it's responsive and quick and gets rid of intermediaries. So we need the equivalent of that in governance in how we govern ourselves so that when there's an issue, we're not just kind of trying to lobby our delegate to do what we want.

First step to maximize yourselves to your fullest potential

[26:15]

If we let all that go, it's really looking within. It comes back to the inquiry or that proprioceptive dialogue.

[31:24]

The way that you let yourself notice. Your arms and legs, you just gently allow sound.

[37:52]

When we get in touch with our emotional intelligence, like the stuff that is going on underneath suddenly starts to just surface. And once it surfaces, you pay attention to it.

[40:51]

There's a man named Eugene Gamblin that people can look up. He developed focusing, and it's where you sense your body to find what's going on. And through his work, they actually did some studies and they found that in counseling when people have a felt sense, they're more likely to succeed in counseling than if it's just talking.

What is it that draws Olivia to counseling?

[42:27]

Olivia feels like in another life, she’d totally be a therapist.

[47:10]

It's not like you have to be totally healed to be a counselor. You have to be healed enough so that you're aware.

Does Olivia feel in communication with people during their transition into death or after that?

[52:35]

For Olivia, it's been after and she talked to some people where it's more like during the transition, but it's always been after.

In this episode, we have invited Stefania Indelicato and Laura McNeice, Hosts of Dash of Life Podcast. As a painter and consultant, Laura thought of starting biographical stories of influential people. Stefania is an actress, producer and an avid storyteller who studies human behavior. Finding the resonance of interest between the two and their convergence, birthed the Dash of Life Podcast. Today, Stefania and Laura dives into the historical and philosophical aspects of humanity and their podcast story.

 

Appeal of Historical Figures

[20:37]

Stefania discerns history as a window to our humanity and souls. It is fascinating for her to learn about people who have faced similar problems that you don’t get to meet in a day-to-day basis. She loves how these figures offer insights stemmed from our scary, deep and embarrassing past—even more so if it’s a woman figure who battled her way out of the patriarchal structure of society.

[24:37]

Laura concurs Stefania view—understanding things that you cannot fathom by going back to history and identifying the mechanisms behind. Sexism, racism, political pride and technological advances; when these are linked to humans, it makes sense how impactful it is to the people.

[26:54]

Laura is inspired seeing these figures’ resilience and dedication. Teamwork might be massive but individuality is a powerful thing to have.

Humanity’s Progression

[28:25]

Stefania observed that humanity lacks compassion and empathy—people function from fear and place of lack than a place of abundance.

[29:40]

For Laura, it is the willingness to explore one’s own blind spots hence the lack of compassion and empathy. There is not enough diversity, for people of power, to make life more equitable for everybody.

Public Figures’ Spotlight

[31:09]

Stefania thinks that we only learn leaders who did bad things and criticize them without having a model of a better leader to compare them to. She set Trump as an example. Trump receives flak all the time for his horrible leadership, which implies more airtime and discussion fostered.

[32:18]

Laura on the other hand, argued that even if “good leadership” are highlighted, there are possible blind spots. She set Winston Churchill as an example. By putting Kenya under his authority, will that signify good or bad leadership? How will good or bad appears for some people? It now becomes a matter of perspective.

Perspectives

[35:38]

Stefania emphasizes that the podcast’s goal is to give airtime for people that made difference in a positive and progressive way. It was bad for two perspectives to agree since it becomes cultural brainwashing. Your upbringing is embedded into you as you grow older.

[37:51]

Listening and understanding is important for Laura. What you have not experience does not mean will not be experienced by other people, and this is one of things leaders lacked.

[38:30]

Stefania thinks that the moment you affected someone’s well-being; your opinion is king. Your opinion will not be king because you are not the only person in the equation.

[40:37]

People can have their world, but they should have the awareness at any given moment to adjust if they have started to affect other people’s worlds.

Control, Purpose and Growth

[43:44]

Laura preached that you should work with you got. The way you utilize it makes a lot of difference. There are things that you can control and things that you cannot, now be creative on how to play those cards.

[45:53]

Stefania pointed out that you need to figure out your purpose. What you are putting out there might get tainted or even if it came from a damaged and fearful place, and it’s okay to not be fully functional—it takes time to heal it all.
