This is my first episode recorded LIVE!

With a rich musical heritage, Clovis is home to two remarkable citizens – Norman and Vi Petty, whose legacy is carried forth at the Norman & Vi Petty Rock & Roll Museum.

The museum is located in the Clovis Business Enterprise Center, which is also home to the Clovis/Curry County Chamber of Commerce, at 105 E. Grand Ave. It is designed to give visitors a glimpse into the Norman Petty Studios on Seventh Street, where musicians such as Buddy Holly, Buddy Knox, Roy Orbison, and other early rock and roll greats recorded some of their hits.

Some of the museum’s attractions include the working equipment from the actual studios, including the original mixing board used during Buddy Holly’s recordings. In addition, memorabilia from the Petty’s personal collections are on display, offering a behind-the-scenes look at their lives and careers. Even experts in “Petty-ology” will discover something new, with never-before-seen artifacts and many interesting stories captured on video and audio, and displayed throughout the exhibit.

The construction of the museum also is unique. It encompasses a re-creation of two of the studio’s rooms, as well as diner booths and lots of neon. A central attraction is the oversized 1950s Fender Stratocaster – the guitar that Buddy Holly made popular. It hangs over the entrance.

Since the museum opened in 2008, visitors from around the world have made the music pilgrimage to visit the Seventh Street Studios and the Rock & Roll Museum. (I was the first to put a pin in the map from Boise, ID)

Jared says he "took a pretty conventional path to life; studied hard, got good grades, went to a great university, and landed the ‘dream job’ upon graduating."

The only problem was, “who’s dream was I living?”

He soon discovered that I wasn’t meant to follow the conventional path to life.

"I could feel such a strong desire to explore more than what society had taught me on what a successful life should look like. At 22, I decided to ‘retire’ from conventionality and take more control over my life. I quit the career job I had worked so hard to attain and soon found myself working at a high-end sushi restaurant in Malibu, CA. Each night provided me with countless opportunities to network and learn from our world’s rich and famous about the connection between money and happiness. Or the lack thereof."

Then, it was 3 months hopping around Europe, followed by 6 months surfing in Indonesia and studying with Yogis in India. "India provided me with a whole new set of spiritual tools. I couldn’t wait to return to the states and teach others this ancient practice I had just dedicated my life to studying."

“It was then that I was sent the biggest wake up call of my life”

Driving home from work one night, I was hit. Head on. Both my legs broken, scarring all over my body, and lots of trauma. A year in my bed. No where to run, no escaping. Just me and my mirror."

"Mindset. Breathe work. Meditation. Stillness. Silence. Going within. This became my daily practice. This was my medicine. This was the ‘work’ I had been avoiding -- and then came a calling. As soon as I was well enough to walk again, I found myself in the Andes Mountains of Ecuador. Healing. Learning from Shamans about the power of Sacred Plant Medicine. Connecting back to my ancestors. Connecting back to source."

Afterwards, Jared returned to Los Angeles and moved his entire life to a healing center. He has managed the retreats, taught yoga, created meals, facilitated ceremony, built community, and most importantly, reconnected with self.

Turn your dreams into a reality…Learn 8 different grounding techniques that promote calmness, clarity, and release. Spend time learning about each stage of manifestation and how it applies directly to your life. Dive deep into identifying who you are, where your belief systems come from, what’s holding you back, and create a strong vision for your future.

My guest today is Rocky Lalvani.

Highlights of my interview include:

• Numbers can tell a story
• Value pricing means what the customer values your work to be (and what they expect to pay)
• A new way to position profit (sales - profit = expenses)
• The answer is almost always not more resources, but to be more resourceful

You'll also hear his story. Rocky says:

"So while I’m interested in money, I’ve always seen it as a tool, as something that can open countless doors if managed well. Without understanding money, my dad wouldn’t have been able to sustain a family in America. I wouldn’t be able to live out my dream of taking my family on a vacation across Italy.

I’ve seen how much of a difference understanding money makes in my own life. And I’ve now made it my goal to help others open doors, solve problems, and gain freedom through understanding the finances for their small business.

Rather than only making money off of telling other people what to do, I’ve truly lived out the experiences of both working a corporate job, working independently, and managing a small business. Now, I want to take this knowledge and share it with other small business owners at a fraction of the cost that it would be to hire a dedicated full-time financial manager."
