The Daily Helping

We are coming to you live from the GoBundance event with Jon Huber, a traveling businessman with an impressive resume and a real estate portfolio of 126 units from Florida to California. He has become an expert on the considerations of working remotely. With how relevant that is in our world today, he’s sharing with us what he’s learned about how to manage your work away from the office.Jon became passionate about remote work when his children were born. He didn’t want to be that working father who saw his kids for two hours a day before bed. Work and life are never fully in balance, but Jon is constantly striving to adjust to what feels best in the moment with his family as his guiding compass.

Some of the tools for working successfully at home:

• Block time for however long you can focus
• Become beholden to your calendar
• Put a team in place so that you aren’t the bottleneck in your business

When you know what you want to accomplish – in your business and in your life – it makes it so much easier to begin working backward from that goal. From there, you can set up systems and procedures to allow you to make the money you need while having the time, freedom, and flexibility to live the life you want.

The Biggest Helping: Today’s Most Important Takeaway

“Live your life by design. Find out the life that you want and then work yourself backwards. What do I need to do to become that person? If I want to be that person that does whatever I wanted to do, what job do I need to have? What skills do I need to have? What team do I need around me? What systems do I need in place? And then work on that.”

We are once again live from the GoBundance event in Park City, Utah, this time with Mark Moses. He’s a world-renowned keynote speaker and CEO coach who shares what he has learned working with over 875 companies with a combined annual revenue stream of $50 billion. He’s also the best-selling author of Make Big Happen and Making Big Happen.

In his last year of high school, Mark’s dad lost his job, leaving the family bankrupt. Mark was forced to fend for himself if he wanted to go to college, and so he started painting houses on the side. Eventually, he realized the scaling potential of his painting business and set out to become an entrepreneur instead. By 26, the business had grown. It now had 250 locations and 3,000 staff, so Mark sold it.

That was the first success of many, leaving Mark convinced that he needed to write a book. He needed to share how you can get the life, and build the business that you want. It’s all about four simple questions:

• What do you want?
• How do you get it?
• What’s going to stand in the way?
• How do you hold yourself accountable?

If you don’t know what you want, you’re never going to achieve it. But if you can clearly define your goal, you can start moving towards it. 

The Biggest Helping: Today’s Most Important Takeaway

“I believe there are three kinds of people: those that make big happen, those that let things happen, and those that ask what happened? I believe you can build any life that you want to build. If you can define it, you can now start walking towards that step. Don't let anybody tell you with life you can or can't have, that's up to you. Success comes in a can, not a can't.”

We are live from the GoBundance event with Chris Waddell, 12-time paralympic medal winner and the most decorated mono skier in history. He entered the US Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame in 2009 and the Paralympics Hall of Fame in 2010. A skiing accident left him paralyzed from the waist down, which he describes as the most traumatic and most powerful experience to happen in his life.By aiming to prove himself, not as a disabled person, but simply as a person, Chris was able to achieve some truly incredible things, including a climb to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro. His nonprofit, One Revolution, sets out to redefine the way we look at disability.

The Biggest Helping: Today’s Most Important Takeaway

“Our lives are going to take twists and turns. We will have a plan and most likely that plan doesn't work out the way that we thought it would. Sometimes, not getting what you want can be the greatest gift of all. If I can remove the emotional part of that… Oh, I failed in my plan – to recognize that… Hey, this might be an opportunity I had not had my eyes open to. That, to me, is my greatest helping.”

We are live from the GoBundance event with Adam Broussard, a husband, father of two, and host of the podcast and mastermind group for high-achieving physician fathers called Dads Before Doctors. He’s dialed into making a difference in the lives of others through his various works.Doctors, or any other high achieving profession, tend to work so hard to provide for their families that they forget to actually spend quality time with them. If you’re a parent in survival mode, here are some things you can do to step back and make connections:

• Put aside time for yourself and your mental health on your calendar
• Schedule date nights with your partner or kids before other work commitments
• Try not to fight it when you kids are making demands of your time, eventually they won’t want to spend any time with you

Being a parent is such a precious time. It is difficult and stressful but it doesn’t last forever. It’s important that we do our best to enjoy the good parts of parenting that we’ll never get back.

The Biggest Helping: Today’s Most Important Takeaway

“The biggest thing is just being present and intentional, being able to create the life you want, and be present with your kids, with your wife, with yourself even, so that once you put it down, that you accomplish it, and not get stuck in the day-to-day.”

Chris Tuff is the partner of the advertising firm 22squared where he has helped them grow into a 400-plus employee digital powerhouse, over 90% millennials and Gen Z. He’s also the author of the best-selling bookThe Millennial Whispererwhere he shares lessons on empathy and genuine connection. In his newest book,Save Your Asks, he talks about becoming a better networker and salesperson using the same principles set up in The Millennial Whisperer.One of his favorite tips for making an ask that’s impossible to ignore is called “masking your ask in your dream.” If you share your dream with someone, whatever it is, they are almost guaranteed to do anything within their power to help you achieve it.Building a new relationship is easy, but sustaining one is hard. And making too many asks is one easy way to drive a relationship into the ground. So save your asks, and start building up genuine connections with people.

The Biggest Helping: Today’s Most Important Takeaway

“Start saving your asks. Curiosity is the difference between connecting and networking. If you take a genuine curiosity to the person sitting next to you and stop selling to them and start asking them some of these important questions of what drives them as humans, you're going to find not only more successful in your job. It's going to make your connections a lot more fulfilling. And so I encourage everyone to start saving their asks and take action towards more genuine connection.”

The Biggest Helping: Today’s Most Important Takeaway

“For me, it's about respect. It's about inclusion, and recognizing that we all can make a difference in this conversation – for us to think about the perspectives that we come from, and to truly open our hearts and minds to the perspective that others hold. If we all approach life in that way, we'd be a much stronger society.”

Today, our expert guest is Mick Ebeling, founder and CEO of Not Impossible Labs. Mick has seeded a movement of pragmatic, inspirational innovation as a career producer, filmmaker, and inventor. He’s been named by Fortune Magazine as one of the Top 50 World's Greatest Leaders and is the only person to be honored twice as TIME Magazine’s Inventor of the Year. He's also the recipient of The Muhammad Ali Humanitarian Award and listed as one of the World's 50 Most Influential Creative People by Ad Age.Like most good origin stories, a series of coincidences led Mick to his main inspiration for Not Impossible Labs. 

A friend convinced him to go to a gallery event; he begrudgingly went. It turned out to be a fundraising event for a graffiti artist, Tony “TEMPT ONE” Kwan, who had ALS. Mick ended up talking to Tony’s family, where he realized the event was to help raise money for Tony’s hospital bills. Only knowing the imagery of Stephen Hawking when it came to ALS, Mick was surprised to find out how difficult communicating was for Tony, and he promised to himself and Tony’s family that he would find a way to get him a communication device. 

Better yet, he committed to finding a way to let Tony create art again. With some of the smartest people he knew, they invented an $80 device that allowed Tony to do just that. 

It was through that experience that Mick realized what change was possible and within his grasp. He set out to create Not Impossible Labs to start changing the world and inspiring others to do the same. Now, he helps others do what he did – find one person, change their life, and change the world.

The Biggest Helping: Today’s Most Important Takeaway

“Go out and change your world – and the world. That's the first thing, right? Just make a decision, find an absurdity, and go out and change that absurdity and help one person. Full stop. Case closed. Shut the door. Shut the computer. Podcast over.”

Today we are live from Park City, Utah at the GoBundance event with our expert guest, Carolyn Colleen. She is a fierce mother of three children, author, international speaker, entrepreneur, and business strategist focused on helping others achieve their goals.

She's the founder of Fierce Academy, an online program that helps women create life strategies that enable them to have the life they dream of without sacrificing their families, careers, or lifestyles. She's the owner of Acton Midwest private schools where the philosophy is clear thinking leads to good decisions, good decisions lead to the right habits, the right habits lead to character, and character becomes destiny.

Carolyn faced unbelievable hardships as a child. Living with a mother who struggled with untreated mental illness and being subject to sexual abuse repeatedly from both men and women. The stress of it all caused her to attempt to take her own life at the age of 16. Seeing how angry her little sister was when she came back from the hospital, she knew that she was meant for something more.

Through her trauma, she ended up seeking out abusive relationships. It wasn’t until she was rocking her two-month-old daughter to sleep that she asked the universe for a sign. She knew her daughter deserved a better life, and through creating that better life Carolyn learned to love herself as well. It was through that journey that led to the world of 1Life Fully Lived, where she eventually became the executive director.

1Life Fully Lived gives people the tools to create a roadmap for their life. It was through their help that Carolyn was able to carve a new life for herself. As she strived to make the best life for her children, she discovered Acton Academy. There wasn’t a school near her, so instead of moving to Texas to join one she applied to open a school of her own – and she was accepted.

Anyone has the power to create a roadmap for their life. And, more importantly, everyone has the power to follow it.

The Biggest Helping: Today’s Most Important Takeaway

“Other people see things in us that we might not see. Sometimes you have to borrow the light that another person sees in you until your light ignites – leaning into that light so that you can be exactly what you deserve.”

Today, our expert guest is Kashif Khan, CEO and founder of The DNA Company, where personalized medicine is being pioneered through unique insights into the human genome. They’ve done the largest study of its kind globally and developed a functional approach to genomic interpretation, overlaying environment, nutrition, and lifestyle on the genetic blueprint to create personalized and deterministic health outcomes. His company measures its success not in dollars earned but in lives improved.Like most people who end up in functional medicine, Kashif’s story starts with his own health. He had a number of health issues, from eczema to psoriasis, acid reflux, depression, and more – and the traditional healthcare system had failed him in their treatment. As his health was declining, he met with a friend in the healthcare field who dove deeper into his genetics and learned that all of these problems had a root cause.

Your genes act as a set of instructions for your body, but some of those instructions can be wrong. Typically, a geneticist will only study those who are unhealthy. Kashif set out to look at those who have the same genetic disposition as people with an illness, but who are healthy. What he learned was that your environment, nutrition, and lifestyle habits act as variables in whether or not those predisposed for illness actually get sick. It’s endlessly fascinating stuff.

If we can stop treating illness as something that applies to everyone the same way, and start looking at how our personalized genetics are determining our health outcomes, the world could soon be free of chronic illness.

The Biggest Helping: Today’s Most Important Takeaway

“The understanding of why disease happens is completely off. Chronic disease is a choice. It's not – My family has heart disease. My family has breast cancer – and then you wait to see. What your family had was risk. And then they had wrong environment, nutrition, and lifestyle loads that caused the risk to manifest. So if you understand what those things are, then all of a sudden disease becomes optional.”

Today, we are once again live on location in Park City, Utah at the GoBundance event with our expert guest, Sterling Shrout. He's a father of two, avid adventurer, small business owner, and real estate investor.Sterling’s upbringing was not an easy one. Growing up in extreme poverty, he was selling drugs at the age of 15 and was placed in the criminal justice system, alternating between jail and probation. At 18 he had his door kicked in by the Ace Combined Task Force for trafficking drugs, possession of dynamite, and running a drug ring. He ended up spending three years in prison.

Getting released right before his 23rd birthday, Sterling had the odds stacked against him. He was a felon, he didn’t have a degree and hadn’t developed any skills beyond selling drugs. He tried to reenter society responsibly but he couldn’t find any work and ended up back in the same circles he was before. 

He spent a few years homeless, committing petty crimes just to get by, until he ended up in Florida at The Salvation Army for rehab. It was there that he was first exposed to the idea that things could get better.

It was still a few years until things really started to turn around. After the birth of his child and a subsequent relapse and overdose, things started to click. He began doing odd jobs, miscellaneous labor, and started saving up some money. Eventually, he stumbled upon podcasts that introduced him to the concepts of entrepreneurship.

All the work he’s done on the personal side of his life has led to the nonprofit organization that he now works with, 1Life Fully Lived, which helps people plan visions for their futures to get out of poverty. They taught him to set a vision for what his life would look like at 100-years old, and that was the first time he started to care about his future self. 

If you want to do this exercise at home, find a quiet spot, close your eyes, and picture yourself at one hundred years old…

• Where are you?
• What does it look like?
• What does it feel like?
• Who is with you?

Put yourself in that situation and allow yourself to really feel it. The more vivid you can make this picture in your mind, the better the technique will work. With this, you can actually begin to care for and think about how you will become that future self.

The Biggest Helping: Today’s Most Important Takeaway

“Let yourself dream big. Don't keep yourself boxed into some small, you know… I only deserve this. Or, that's too much. Set your goals high. Aim high, and really go after whatever you're passionate about.”
