ZAP!

Hello everybody and welcome to another episode of Good Chaos (Insert catchy jingle)! My name is Ryli and I am the host and creator of the show.  

I hope the start of this description makes you think of one of those Disney Channel tv crossovers from the early 2000s, shout out to all the 90s kids who know what I'm talking about.

In the spirit of Valentine's Day, we have a very special and unique episode. As you know, I (Zach) am the creator and host of this podcast. However, this episode is hosted by my extremely kind and talented friend, Ryli. Less than 48 hours ago I reached out to her to get her input on an idea. She took that idea and turned it into what you are about to hear today.

Valentine's Day is usually associated with love. While having love for others is important, it's extremely important to have self-love. This episode has a few special guests share their thoughts on self-love, and then it has our honorary ZAP! host, Ryli, take over to make me my own guest. The idea that Ryli pitched to me was to have me share more about myself and my experiences and thoughts on self-love. Exactly like how I do things, Ryli was on brand and directed our unscripted and completely off the cusp and spur of the moment conversation. As much as I love going unscripted, there's a moment where I completely misunderstand the question and ramble so that was fun haha.

My podcast means a lot to me and giving control and the host seat to someone else is something I never considered and can be a little intimidating. But, there's truly no one else that I could think of that would be a better host. Huge shout out and thank you to Ryli for the idea and being a great host.

Special thanks to our special guests!

Jordan is an operations manager by trade, and while he enjoys his job he spends a lot of time focusing on his passions. Some of Jordan's passions include sports and gaming. Both of these passions are things that Jordan had an interest in as a kid, and now is coming back to them later on in his life. One way that Jordan shares his passions with others is through his own podcast called Royal City Gaming. Going into this conversation, I was anticipating a fun conversation about video games and sports, but Jordan opened up a lot about life and his journey through it. While having this conversation, I found a lot of comfort and wisdom in hearing the words and messages that Jordan shared with me. I'm extremely grateful for the life lessons I've learned through this conversation. As Jordan is continuing to grow his podcast and social media presence, I'm excited to see how he continues to entertain and connect with others. 

In this episode Jordan talks about finding your passions, stepping out of your comfort zone, gaming, being patient, and much more!

Natalia is a Lead Designer with Ford and also a contestant on season 33 of the reality TV show, The Amazing Race. Currently airing, Natalia is running the race with her dad, but that wasn't quite how things were originally suppose to be. While season 33 of The Amazing Race is currently airing, this season saw some unexpected delays due to the ongoing pandemic. During times like these, having an escape can be nice, so I'm very glad to see that the season was able to finish. Natalia has always had a passion for traveling, so it only made sense that she should try her hand at racing around the world, completing tasks but also taking in all of the beautiful places the world has to offer. While being on reality tv can be a incredible and life changing opportunity, Natalia is still the same person she has always been. If you're a fan of The Amazing Race like me, it's really cool to hear some of the behind the scenes experiences that Natalia had. 

In this episode Natalia talks about her experience with The Amazing Race, the power of mindset and good energy, and much more!

Season 33 of The Amazing Race is currently on every Wednesday at 8pm ET on CBS.

Dylan is a health coach that is currently working with the Omnevo Wellness Academy and USA Hockey. As a teen, Dylan decided to really invest in his own health and learn all of the ways that he could optimize it. This is when the passion started and the rest is history. After diving into the basics of health and seeing improvements in his own, this fueled Dylan to continue to strive to learn as much health knowledge as possible so he could not only live his best life, but help others achieve a healthy and sustainable lifestyle. While Dylan definitely helps people with their physical health, like many trainers do, Dylan prides himself on looking at all the various dimensions that make up one's health. I love that Dylan is just as passionate about things like sleep, diet, stress levels, etc. I think that having this wholistic approach to health can really benefit us greatly with our overall individual wellness. It's been an honor to call Dylan a friend all of this years and I'm always blown away with how passionate and knowledgeable he is. I'm usually not a betting person, but if I had to bet on someone, I would feel confident in saying that Dylan is going to continue to learn as much as he can, while helping a ton of people along the way. 

In this episode Dylan talks about what it means to be a coach, his personal health journey, one of the most overlooked elements of health, and much more!

Shout out to this throwback picture that I found haha. Truly grateful to call Dylan a friend for the last 10+ years. Here's to many more!

Amanda is a lover of fitness, an entrepreneur and business person, and mental health advocate. Amanda has found a passion for fitness and it has been something that has not only impacted her physical health, but her mental health as well. Throughout her life, Amanda has learned about herself through her challenges and adversities and working each day to get 1% better. Mental health is a topic that isn't always addressed or talked about, and I think Amanda is doing a great job bringing some more light to this topic. I think that with Amanda's passion for mental health, she is the kind of person that we need to be starting and normalizing these conversations. 

In this episode Amanda talks about mental health, fitness, not comparing yourself to others, and much more!
