January 19, 2023I Wanted Something That Moves Me, Fires Me Up, Brings The Best Out Of Me
In this episode, we talk with Ricardo Wilkins, a former government employee turned entrepreneur, and his journey to personal development.
How after years in government employment having a nice paycheck and being comfortable in the cubicle he realized that he wanted more, the challenge, something that moves him, fires him up, and brings up the best of him but still, as opportunities showed up, his limiting beliefs would stop him from utilizing them
How he finally got fed up and what he discovered that started changing his life, health, and the direction of his life
What volunteering means to him
-How a chronic stomach issue got him on the journey of realizing that even multiple tests, and multiple specialists can’t always determine what the core issue is
How he started learning about proper nutrition, what to put in his body, healing, started paying attention
How is now the “annoying healthy eater”
The new direction that moves Ricardo, inspires him and hit that entrepreneurial bug he had within him
What caught his attention because of aging, and longevity research
We spoke about his newly published book – Life’s Biohack – the health secrets of redox signaling and what compelled him to write it
The book you can understand and read within 1 day
It’s also an example of Ricardo’s personal development - how we can overcome our limiting beliefs, change our story, and get out of our comfort zone
How he wants to create immerse volunteering – for people who might have lost their job, and are looking for a next step - providing guidance and support for their next step

January 12, 2023 Find Calm Within Chaos
This interview was originally recorded at the beginning of the world’s pandemic as one of my first ZOOM conversations. But its message and great advice are even more valuable today.

I had the privilege to chat with Edwin Brown - a private practitioner of acupuncture in Wethersfield and Manchester, Connecticut).

Edwin has spent the last 24 years working in both private clinical and hospital settings. In addition, he spent more than 22 years studying the arts of Judo and Jiujitsu, pursuing his love for Martial arts as well as several years studying and practicing Tai Chi.

A thorough understanding of how the flow of energy (Ki) affects the body is a central and crucial aspect in both fighting and healing arts. The ultimate goal of both fighting and healing arts is to achieve and maintain harmony.

Studying these disciplines has enabled him to more thoroughly understand Ki and has thereby enhanced his ability to better serve his patients on their healing journeys, and on their paths back to realizing a more balanced life.

I asked Edwin about the best practices we can all do right now to improve our mental and physical health during these challenging times, boost our immune system and become the best version of ourselves with just a few conscious actions a day.

You will hear:
• How his love for the philosophy and spiritual aspects of Martial arts brought him to his new career
• How making sure you're relaxed while becoming stronger can give you more benefit from exercise
• Just like the tree that’s flexible has the capacity to withstand the storm
• How he was one of those big bulky guys - and how strength and flexibility go hand to hand
• When he finally found the right teacher, he studied with him for 16 years in his late twenties
• How is acupuncture connected to martial arts
• What intervened when he created obstacles in his mind why he can’t study and change his career
• How he never again wanted to be in a position where someone else decides if he can or can’t work – "I’m going to create my own career"
• Whom he met during his studies that changed his life for years to come
• His path to personal growth, internal journey, Tai Chi
• How he learned to live with uncertainty
"Life is uncertain even on the best of days – being flexible in your strength"
• What is the one thing we have complete control over?
• Learning how to breathe - properly calms your brain from stress
• Every single cell in your body needs oxygen to exist so proper breathing helps the proper cellular function
• How to make it a habit that sticks
• What are the 3 most important things we can do to withstand stress?
"Life is about breathing and walking. However, proper breathing and proper walking."

• How standing upright like a pine tree helps you relax into strength
• How ignoring chronic stress doesn't deliver long-term results with treatment
• How stress management routines have an impact on everything
• What did his teacher tell him when he asked – how do you deal with negative energy?
• What kind of homework I gave him and did he do accomplish it???

"Just like the calm eye within a hurricane, we can learn how to find the calm within the chaos."

January 05, 2023Living Dreams - I'll Give You The Shirt Of My Back. Unless It’s Cold...
In this episode, we're talking with a retired professional rock roll drummer turned entrepreneur Robert Hayek who for the last few years not only built a new business but is also healing from a neurological disorder deemed "uncurable".

We will touch on:
how after moving to Florida he felt like not working, semi-retire and maybe becoming a bass fisherman
how Rock Star Networking didn't turn out what he expected it to be yet helped him discover a new business program
how Covid shut down his new business that was just getting momentum - so he had to discover the world of ZOOM
how he got introduced to something that changed his life around on the first ZOOM call
how he got involved in Network marketing in the late 90ties - how he was convinced of a product within 10 minutes and knew he was going to build a business around it
why has network marketing a stigma around it (for some reason I keep saying "digma"). Perhaps that wine on the podcast isn't such a good idea!
how he played drums ever since he was able to walk.... and had bands early in his grammar school and on - how he hung up on Leslie West twice yet still got hired
how one of his former band's recordings ended up as a soundtrack for a porno movie
how he discovered financial business and its leverage -how to be paid over and over for something you sold once
why it's important to find the right product & company
how the first 10 minutes won him over to wanting to start the business
what company would allow you to take a few years off - and while you're out, getting paid more and more every single week

There is no failure unless you quit
what's his big WHY
what's the 1 thing he wants to be remembered by
what's his goal in 2023 and how he could help you to achieve yours as well

December 22, 2022We Are All Just Humans Having a Human Experience
In this episode with an incredible Mitch Webb, an Integrative Health Coach we'll talk about what turned a successful Corporate Sales Executive into Health Coach and what he had to overcome to change his health around.

Mitch says: “As men, we push that stuff down and don’t deal with it and that stuff sits in our body, taking up energy and we get sick. You got to feel it to heal it.”

You'll learn about:
How Mitch’s journey started with multiple crazy diagnoses in his early 20ties
What can TBIs, autoimmune disease, insomnia, Lyme disease, and pre-diabetic conditions do to your body's stress
Add to it scary symptoms that presented themselves after being exposed to black mold (unknowingly), heavy metal toxins
Mix with tragedy in the family, 3 rounds of Covid, losing 70 lbs. of body weight, and a scary car accident on top of it
How much more can you take and what it takes to pull yourself out of that hole
How he ends up genie-pigging himself to better health after putting band-aids and plugging holes that didn’t address the root of the issue
How he felt compelled to help others with what he learned that helped him
How one chiropractor changed his life trajectory
What (and who) saved his life
How as a type A person you take everything to the extreme – if something is good for you, you will do more of it with a tendency to overdo it.
How when you deal with the baggage from the past, emotions, and trauma, once you free up that kind of energy, you’ve got lots of energy to create the life that you want
How he partnered with functional medicine doctors to figure out the root issue when you can’t diet and exercise yourself out of chronic health condition
Why focusing on the end result leads to burnout and quitting and what to focus on instead
What’s his Book of proof
How nothing changes until we change – and when we do things differently, we get a different outcome

"Before you know it - you look back and you’re somebody completely different that you don’t even recognize and it’s a beautiful thing! Everything happens for a reason. When struggle comes up, the Japanese like to celebrate. I got these crazy diagnoses – awesome! That’s an opportunity to grow and heal, and that’s why you came here to learn these lessons, to grow your soul, and your spirit, to evolve as a human being, and to share and evolve the human collective. We are all one so when you heal, you heal someone else.

"Digging into some of those old wounds can be painful – so you need something even more painful to motivate you to overcome it."

November 24, 2022We were like two ships crossing in the night
Today’s guest is Maureen Hayes, MD, a Medical Doctor for more than 30 years. She’s a board-certified Anesthesiologist and Pain Management Specialist.

How she transformed her professional career, what it means for her impact, a mission, and how the quality of her life changed.

We talked about:
How all she ever wanted was to be a surgeon
Who was the only man she would sacrifice her career for?
Navigating a demanding career while being a single mom
How she transformed from surgery to anesthesia and pain management
What book her mom gave her changed her perspective on business, money, life, and what she was doing

“If you look from the outside, it looked like the perfect life. But we had not time to enjoy any of it!”
About that Mother of the Year award
How she became the horrible network marketer
How she questioned if her lifetime work has any effect on people’s health
How she started studying and integrating other wellness products that help
Her mom and her husband, himself a doctor and former marathon runner, were both diagnosed with a life-threatening illness
What she calls her own period of ignorance and arrogance once her mom’s illness came back

“I thought I was a doctor; I knew better. I did everything I can think of. Except for Redox. Until my mom died 2 months later.”

“We’re not giving anybody medical advice - this is a bio replenishment agent. It’s something we already have in every cell of the body, we just have less of it as we get older. Even our genes being turned off and on has to do with redox signaling.“

"Sometimes you don’t know when you have been handed something that’s an answer to your prayers."
Magnifying her efforts now and how every dollar earned is a measuring stick of life changed
What would she do differently if she had a do-over?

"We all want to age gracefully - we want to be 100 years old but not in a wheelchair with people wiping us …."

This is everything. This is the energy of life, really. If you took these molecules away, just like oxygen, you wouldn’t live for more than a few minutes. That’s how foundational they’re.

November 17, 2022I’m either gonna get to the summit or die trying
In this episode, I have the privilege to introduce to you a very special human being, my dear friend, Berta Medina. Her story is captivating, and her professional and personal achievements can easily spread into several fulfilled lives. And she's nowhere near being done!

We will talk about:
How her family migrated to the United States from Cuba
How was it to grow up in a very traditional Cuban multigenerational home
Who had the strongest influence on her, installed a strong work ethic and patriotism in her
The story she was told about her missing father that later turned out to be completely different
What she never shared until after her mom passed
What her father’s greatest shame was – that made her say “this is a funeral I'll never have to come back for because this man is dead to me” at 17 yrs old
What prompted her to change her career, and go back to college as she was preparing for a mission trip to Kenya and Tanzania
Why her family thought she lost her mind – but instead she found her purpose

“There is so much to be done and I can’t do it sitting in the office 16 hours a day!” so she retired and gave away her successfully built business to its employees

Climb Mt Kilimanjaro at 47 – determined to make it to the summit or die trying, with no plan B, and what helped her push through the last hours to accomplish the mission

“Our future is nothing more than an accumulation of the habits and the decisions we make today” Berta Medina

What’s her biggest fear
“Work with people that set your soul on fire or don’t work with them at all!”
What are Berta's 3 strongest values
How she schedules even spontaneity
Who are “her people”
11th hour is too late to start living your life - what we regret in the end is not the things we did – it’s what we didn’t do

While we don’t want to live in an urgent mode, life does require a sense of urgency. Berta Medina

How people are happy when you gain pounds, but worried “is he sick?” when you lose weight
