Today’s Weight Loss Co-host
A weight loss journey for that 100lb mark, all while launching a crowdfunded documentary movie! Welcome ladies and gentleman to the LIVETHEFUEL show, I am Scott Mulvaney your host. I am recording this live from #MAPCON (Mid-Atlantic Podcast Conference), just outside Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Today I have the pleasure of hanging out with the founder of the Wildstyle Media Group and podcast host at “All Things Post“, Niel Guilarte.
The reason I wanted to have Niel on the show today is that, as you have heard on previous episodes, I am a huge supporter of crowdfunding. This gentlemen is being powered by an Indiegogo campaign for a movie that will be released called The Messengers. This is a documentary about the journey of podcasters and uncovering why they do what they do. #ThisIsMyMessage
The exciting thing here is the power of pulling together a community online, using any of these available platforms, and it can produce epic results.
This is a powerful episode in of itself, as Niel and I dive into the challenges of his 100lb weight loss journey and lifestyle changes. Please enjoy and consider giving us a solid review!
