Why Breathwork Works When Willpower Fails


Listen Later

Giovanni Bartolomeo is a serial entrepreneur, founder of Elemental Breathwork, and a transformational breathwork teacher whose work helps people use the breath not to control experience, but as a gateway into regulation, awareness, and lasting change. 

In this episode, Randy and Gio unpack how a single breathwork journey became the inflection point that pulled Gio out of a “successful but empty” life and into a path of purpose, service, and heart‑centered leadership.

 Expect to learn

  •  How breathwork differs from simple “breathing exercises.”

  •  Why unresolved emotions quietly drive anxiety, burnout, and even physical illness.

  •  How rhythmic breath and visualization can rewire beliefs at a subconscious level. 

You will also hear Gio’s wild stories of ayahuasca, Wim Hof, out‑of‑body experiences, and auto‑immune shifts, along with practical guidance on nervous system regulation, navigating crises of meaning, and following the subtle pull of curiosity into your next chapter.
