  • Fitness & Mindset | Adrienne Rivera

    Kalob and Adrienne Rivera discuss fitness, mindset, love, motivation, priorities, relationships and more! Adrienne is a certified personal trainer and received her degree in psychology from Virginia Tech. She helps high-performing, spiritual people like you transform their relationships with food, fitness, and their significant other so that they can create more love in their lives.

    Show up for yourself!

    • When you aren’t taking care of yourself, there is a lack of love. 
    • You need to show up for yourself! There needs to be intrinsic motivation. It can’t all come from a coach. 
    • When you show up for yourself, you show those you love that you care about being around for the long haul. 
    • You deserve to show up for those you love! 

    How to Prioritize fitness

    • You DO HAVE time for fitness. You may just not be prioritizing it. 
    • You need to understand WHY you want to be fit. 

    Fit through love

    • Love is essential. 
    • Fitness can be a tool to strengthen relationships. 
    • It is also important to love yourself. 
    • 1 Define your self-worth
    • 2 You then develop self-trust
    • 3 Finally you get to self-love
    • Positive selfishness. You need to take care of yourself first. 

    Motivation

    • Fitness is a lifestyle.
    • A motivator can be ego and wanting to be macho. 
    • This can be a great motivator, but a stronger motivator can be love. Being motivated by relationships is powerful. 
    • There is nothing wrong with wanting to have abs or biceps. 
    • There should be a deeper, more meaningful why, though. 
    • People say: “I want to feel better.” 
    • The problem with “better:” you can always be better. What does better look like? You need to define it. 

    Making time for yourself

    • You invest in your business
    • You invest in your family
    • You invest in so many things. Why are you afraid to invest in yourself?
    • You are worthy, simply because you breath. 
    • You are successful because of who you are. 
    • Be creative! If you feel like you don’t have time because of your kids, go outside and play with your kids as a workout. 
    • Think outside of the box! 
    • Trainerize app

    Relationships and Fitness

    • It’s harder to live a fit life without the support of your partner. 
    • A way to explain why fitness is important to you and encourage them to join you on the journey. 
    • Step 1: Ask for what you want.
    • Step 2: Explain how important it is to you.
    • Step 3: Express appreciation.

    Can I do it on my own?

    • A coach or mentor can help you get where you want to be faster.
    • You can do it on your own, but it is harder to keep yourself accountable. 

    Physical fitness can effect EVERY aspect of life

    • This is incredibly important because EVERY other area of life is effected by physical fitness.

  • Making A Big Ask | Nicole Matthews - Henley Company

    Have you ever wanted something so bad that it’s all you could think about? Well, on this episode of SuccessQuest, Nicole Matthews will teach you how to accomplish your dreams. In fact, it’s as simple as asking :)

    Nicole’s Story

    • She has been an entrepreneur since 2007.
    • She was working in events and PR for a big law firm. 
    • She felt like she was in a wrong spot, and it took her 5 years to get out of her job. 
    • She started her business on the side and eventually went in full time. 
    • She founded Henley Co. They plan events and do concierge service. 
    • She’s worked 3 Olympic Games and 6 Super Bowls. 

    Side Hustle vs. Jumping all in

    • Nicole is grateful that she spend time in corporate America for a while. 
    • You are where you are to learn the lessons you need to learn and make the connections you need to make. 
    • Because she started it as a side hustle, she was able to slowly scale her business and learn skills from her current job. 

    How do you know when it’s time to move on?

    • A family friend had a 14 month old almost drown. 
    • This made Nicole think about how short life is, and she didn’t want to live it with any regrets. 
    • She hadn’t planed on quitting, but one day, going into work, she felt peace and decided to quit. 

    Benefits of events

    • Technology is amazing, and it provides opportunities to meet virtually. 
    • That said, there is still a huge benefit of meeting face to face. 
    • Don’t throw parties for the sake of parties. 
    • An event needs to be purposeful and well planed. 
    • If the event could be done virtually, maybe it should be. Do something different that makes the face-to-face connection meaningful.

    Struggles building a company

    • You need to be brave enough to get out of what you’re not good at. 
    • Be willing to outsource work you don’t care about or aren’t good at. 
    • The whole point of doing your own thing is being free and creative. If it feels like a job, then why not stay in corporate America. 
    • Do what makes you feel fulfilled. 

    Outsourcing & Delegation

    • As your business grows, you NEED to have your business continue even if YOU can’t be there. 
    • Be selective. 
    • Be clear on direction. 
    • Understand that they won’t love your business like you do. 
    • TRUST - you have to trust people to get the work done. 

    BIG ASK

    • Book - Permission! Stop Competing and Start Creating the Life You Want to Live
    • Nicole loves the olympics and England. 
    • When she heard the olympics were going to be in London, she really wanted to work at the olympics. 
    • The power of a network: “Somebody I know, knows somebody that can make it happen”
    • You have to be bold enough to ask people to help you accomplish your goals. 
    • She sent a message to her network letting people know about her goal (125 people). 
    • She got about 30 responses!
    • She was connected with people who helped her become the account manager for the CEO of Visa Europe. 
    • She was his personal assistant for the course of the games. 
    • She had an amazing experience, and it all happened because she was willing to ask.

  • Utilizing your Brain's Full Potential | Odille Remmert

    Odille will take you on a journey to fully unlocking your brain’s potential! If you've been wondering how to overcome fears, past traumas, and overall change the way your brain works this is the podcast for YOU! 

    • Toward the end of 2015, at 51 years old, Odille was divorced, renting a room in a shared house in England, cleaning other people's houses, and still unable to pay her bills. This, after a lifetime of struggle (financial and emotional), including extraordinary failures, fibromyalgia, IBS, and suicidal plans.
    • In 2016, not only was she able to pay her bills, but she'd also travelled to America (multiple cities) three times, Spain (twice), Ireland, and Greece (paying for her sister and son to come with her to Greece).
    • She now lives in Peoria, Illinois (which she loves), is married to the love of her life (they met in Feb 2017), doing what she loves for a living AND - She now owns the rental properties she used to clean! 

    What Changed:

    She discovered two things that helped create the success she experienced:

    1 - Based on the latest in neuroscience, She conditioned her brain and body, physiologically, to produce more "feel-good" chemicals like endorphins, serotonin, and oxytocin (which she then developed into a modality, and wrote a book on the topic: You Have a Superpower).

    • Whenever you're feeling any negative emotion, your brain and body are producing stress chemicals like adrenaline and cortisol.
    • These stress chemicals cause blood to drain from the prefrontal cortex of your brain (where you do your cognitive thinking like problem-solving, strategizing, processing information, and noticing opportunities) - so you literally can't think straight and your judgement is impaired.
    • When you switch from stress chemicals to feel-good chemicals, blood returns to the prefrontal cortex, bringing that part of your brain back "online".

    So, feeling good is about more than just feeling good - it's about keeping your cognitive thinking online! ;)

    2 - Again, based on neuroscience, she discovered the connection between subconscious "evidence" from childhood and teenage experiences, that "proves" who we are and how the world works - and the results and struggles we experience in life as adults... and how to change it.

    For more on the science behind that, here's an article that sites some of the scientific references:

    Can We Change Adverse Childhood Memories?

    She and her husband created a proprietary modality: The Remmert Method - which helps people to:

    • Gain complete control over their emotional state (and condition their brain and body to produce more "feel-good" chemicals - like you would condition your body to get fitter through an exercise program. 
    • Change the original subconscious "evidence" that is supporting the limiting subconscious beliefs ... that are creating the current results

    It's like changing the "GPS" in your subconscious - to where you want to go, rather than leaving it on "default".

    For more details and information on what we do and how it works, and to see a little of what we'd be like to interview, here are some links:
