Cortisol, Stress, and Adrenal Fatigue with Dr. John Neustadt

Scott Mulvaney — Sat, 20 Dec 2025 17:00:00 +0000

Digging In On Health Impacts of Cortisol Levels, Stress, and Adrenal Fatigue:

Your host, Scott Mulvaney and today’s guest co-host Dr. John Neustadt discuss the importance of balancing health, business, and lifestyle. Dr. Neustadt, an expert in integrative medicine, emphasizes the impact of chronic stress on health, particularly cortisol’s role in bone loss and gut health. He advocates for personal responsibility in health, highlighting the inadequacy of traditional medical approaches. They discuss the benefits of whole foods, protein intake, and the pitfalls of ultra-processed foods. Dr. Neustadt’s company, NBI Health, focuses on high-quality supplements, particularly Vitamin K2 (MK-4) for bone health, which has shown to reduce fractures by over 70%. They stress the importance of reading labels and understanding bioavailability. The discussion focused on the differences between MK-4 and MK-7 forms of vitamin K2, highlighting that MK-4 has been clinically proven to stop and reverse bone loss, while MK-7 only slows down bone loss and may even increase it. Scott Mulvaney emphasized the importance of consumer education and informed decision-making. John Neustadt discussed the significance of clinical trials and the need for transparency in supplement marketing. They also touched on the benefits of vitamin C, the importance of genetic testing, and the role of dietary supplements in stress management and overall health. Neustadt shared his commitment to reducing fracture risk and improving bone health through evidence-based products and pro bono consulting.

Quote: “Cut through the confusion of alternative medicine’s promises, conventional medicine’s failures, fad diets and dietary supplement hype to help you get empowered, get energized and unlock your full health potential.”

Timestamped Show Notes:

08:46 – Chronic stress is absolutely devastating to your health. I mean, even the research has been done with cortisol levels and normal “healthy people”, and just the high end of normal, meaning that they were not pathological. They didn’t have any disease. They were losing bone mass faster than the people whose cortisol levels were lower. Cortisol also changes the gut microbiome. When it’s elevated a lot of the researchers with medications like prednisone, which is basically cortisol on steroids itself, and high doses, but even low doses of short term create osteoporosis and increase fracture risk. But they destroy muscle microfibrils, and it decreases your body’s ability to produce collagen. The stress also makes the collagen that is present there even more fragile. So it’s just this recipe for this systemic breakdown throughout your body of the connective tissue, not to mention the gut health, and, you know, it’s drag on your energy and damage to mitochondria.

13:15 – If recovering from all this chronic stress, if they’ve got symptoms of adrenal fatigue and or we’ve tested it and it’s shown it, I like to have them exercise just to the point where they are sweating and then to stop. That way you get the cardiovascular benefits. It gets the heart rate up, it boosts the immune system, but it doesn’t over stress the the adrenal glands any further.

17:30 – A really insidious effect of cortisol and that chronic stress research has shown it actually shrinks brain size. It decreases the volume of your brain.

37:52 – In Japan, they actually prescribe forest bathing, grounding, i.e. go out into nature. It’s prescribed. The other thing is when you’re in that stressful situation, back to cortisol in a stressful position in your house, or you’re just wound up, it changes the blood flow in your brain. Your prefrontal cortex is for decision making and being able to understand the results of your actions. So if this is comprimised, it will impact your ability to gauge which is going to be the best decision, it decreases the blood flow to that area, and it increases the blood flow to other areas of the brain, where it’s more fight or flight, where it’s let’s get out of here. In fact, research has shown that when people are under stress, they cannot anticipate how the negative consequences of their behaviors, because they just want to escape, and so they make worse decisions.

01:01:20 – Bioavailable, so, what does that mean? It means you can absorb it better, and that’s true, MK7 is more bioavailable than MK4, but that doesn’t mean that it works better in your body. Does that guarantee a utilization? Not at all. So MK7 and MK4 are both forms of Vitamin k2 but they’re different molecules. So you know, as we know, in biochemistry, if you change just one carbon atom or one atom on a molecule, you can get overlapping but you also get very different effects. So I already mentioned, MK4 has been shown to stop and reverse bone loss and maintain bone strength. MK7, in all doses tested, has never been shown to stop bone loss or reverse it, only slow down how fast somebody loses bone?

01:14:00 – On the topic of accurate supplement labeling, I love that topic, and that’s we have three versions of that product. Each have the highest dose of MK4 available, 45 milligrams per day, with 2000 I use a vitamin d3 the dose shown in clinical trials to work, and then different amounts of calcium, because not everybody needs the same amount of calcium in a dietary supplement, and a lot of people don’t even need calcium as a dietary supplement. So that’s got the full dose of calcium, 1000 milligrams per day. Take two servings a day, osteo K minis, which is, I think, a better formula for most women. It has less calcium. It has 400 milligrams per day, right next to that. And the osteo MK4 has no calcium, just the MK4 and vitamin d3 for people who don’t need extra calcium.

01:27:00 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

The reason I started, aside from getting frustrated by not having the supplements that I needed for my patients, where I started focusing on bone health and osteoporosis, is because my mother in law, at the time had osteoporosis. I thought I was doing a good job with her and my patients. I was, you know, helping her with some dietary supplements and nutrition and exercise advice. And her doctor had her on fossamax. Her physician her bone density was going up. So she was happy. Her physician was happy. I was happy. My patient’s bone density was going up. So I was happy. Then my mother in law fell, tripped on a throw rug and broke her hip. And I thought to myself, something is wrong with this picture. So I started diving into the research on osteoporosis and bone health, and I was shocked by what I found, that a bone density test only predicts 44% of women with osteoporosis who fracture only 21% of men, and yet that number on that test is almost exclusively what’s treated and tracked conventionally. And in fact, when it comes to the Osteoporosis medications, the change in bone density is not even an indicator that that medication is reducing their fracture risk that’s well documented in the clinical trials. And so my passion for continuing to research on osteoporosis and bone health, lecture at medical conferences, write my book, create products to help people support their their bone health and their physiology in that way, if I can have an overarching legacy when I’m when I’m gone, my hope is that it will move the needle nationally in terms of how clinically doctors approach this condition, and the entire focus of it changes from just being addressing a number on a test to what can we do to reduce people’s fracture risk, because that’s the most dangerous thing with this condition, and fracture risk depends largely, mostly on factors other than bone density.

Timestamped Show Notes:

17:40 – So your eyes picked up on that, you had the senses that picked out that. I think that’s the thing, is when people are buying crapola from Costco, and they don’t really actually know what low quality food is. When you don’t have the experience of knowing what real nutrient dense food looks and it feels like your senses are completely turned off.

22:25 – That is an important point when you’re in Fire and you’ve got those store stops that may be in a Walmart, or they may be in some rural Montana, Idaho, Nevada, California, environment where you’re subjected to whatever is available. Eggs are always going to be more nutrient dense than Hot Pockets. Eggs are a Superfood.

25:25 – The government just ensures basic food safety. Those are huge food sourcing contracts that go to the lowest bidder, and they can get around all kinds of logical things about bringing in actual good food by quoting food safety laws. So they’re like, oh, we’ve got to make it shelf stable, otherwise people are going to die of food poisoning. What are those chances?

49:44 – Ben Lynch is the doctor, he’s the one that wrote the book Dirty Genes, where I learned about that genetic marker regarding patients with gray hair.

50:35 – I didn’t know anything when I started, and then I started to feel like, oh, you know, things could be better. Just before I did fire, I worked for a woman who was a physician. She quit her medical practice to open up a business. She opened up a restaurant that was all about using nutrition to support people with chronic health conditions. Impacting areas like Cancer, it was so amazing. So this is like in the late 90s, when the Institute for Functional Medicine was just starting. So we were really lucky, because we got to work there, and we got to have people come in and talk to us about inflammation, which at the time was as evolved as a conversation could possibly be, and now it’s evolving.

01:10:15 – It’s a lot of people in fire, I think, you and I have a very dopamine dominant brain type. So they love that high energy input, those kind of big exposures, those big experiences, to keep them up, up, up. Then, once it’s over, those inputs are gone and they’re left to their own devices. So what do you do in that situation? Will you drink because you’re still trying to get so much? I think you know, when you understand certain mechanisms about mental health and how to support it using just diet and lifestyle interventions that are really specific to somebody in that lifestyle, then you really have a different outcome and a different experience. I put on a webinar this last I guess it would be spring, where I was talking about the foundations of mental health, using nutritional considerations for firefighters. It was great. It was well attended.

01:22:10 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

So emotional regulation, the children just lacked so many things that will just contribute to their ability to function in society. You can see that on them still, like they’re going through grades, and they’re just like, kids that are just groups of kids that are just fucked up, or total fucking assholes, and it’s just like, we did this. We did this. People just went along with it and they were like, it’s for public health. So I started arguing with the school board and medical providers in the community, because I’m like, you guys got to show me some information. I mean, doing a simple study on do masks work or not? That’s not hard, because there were schools everywhere else that were not wearing masks, and did they have worse outbreaks?

Timestamped Show Notes:

14:50 – Most Chiropractors are the best practitioners, but they’re the worst business people, so they struggle, and they never really get ahead. They just kind of exist, paycheck to paycheck and it breaks my heart, because they’re amazing. Practitioners, if we could free up some of that stress for them, and a lot, which is part of what my nonprofit does now, is our whole thing is to advocate on behalf of chiropractic, defend the rights of the practicing chiropractor, and then advocate to get better saturation, meaning that, you know, still chiropractic is considered a alternative medicine. It’s still considered complementary, where my whole goal is, like, man, if you understood it, it should be the gatekeeper. We should start there, the brain and the body. No matter what other remedy you come up with, if the brain and body aren’t communicating, you’re it’s not going to be as effective as it could be. And so getting chiropractic engaged at the very beginning of a lot of these cases is going to help everybody. It doesn’t replace everything. It just puts the patient in the best footing to be able to get the most out of whatever other remedy they may get involved in.

31:05 –So this is why MD’s don’t know this stuff, because they’re taught based on the protocols from the pharmaceutical companies, because that’s who’s doing the research, and those protocols were built around prescribing some type of medication, and that’s why, like, if people understood how horrible statin drugs are, just how horrific they are. So cholesterol, blood pressure, all that stuff that everybody has. When you go in the blood work that MD’s are going to get, they are going to look at those types of things, we got to see if it’s good cholesterol, bad cholesterol, it’s such an easy thing to fix with lifestyle and a little bit of diet changes to get your blood pressure and cholesterol under control. For most people, unless there’s an underlying issue, but the allopathic world, because everything’s built on a diagnosis, and once there’s a diagnosis, there’s a protocol, there’s no individuality in the allopathic just checking boxes.

41:00 – I try to tell people, One Chiropractic is like Nike, but Nike has a tennis division, a golf division, an apparel division, an equipment division, but it’s all one company. So one chiropractic, our mission is to make chiropractic the number one healthcare choice in the world. That’s our that’s our why statement, okay, then what we do is we create projects that we believe will help us hit that goal. So one of them is defending the rights of practicing chiropractors. There are a number because allopathic medicine does not want us to succeed, like our way of life really does bankrupt the allopathic way of life. We don’t want people doing drugs. We don’t want people doing surgery. And so we’ve been under attack. And if you’re really a history geek and you want to go back to the 19 late 60s, early 70s, we actually won a case against the American Medical Association where they created a committee to eradicate chiropractic. They called it the Committee on quackery. And we won an antitrust case because they actually put into the code of ethics of MDS that if they referred to or worked with a chiropractor, they could lose their license. And so you had, you had generations of MDS that just hated chiropractic because they were indoctrinated to hate it because of their medical, medical school training. So we’ve been targeted forever. So like right now in British Columbia, Canada, all of a sudden the regulatory bodies decided chiropractors shouldn’t be able to do routine X rays. We’ve been doing X rays from our inception. Every country licensed chiropractors to do X rays, and they just, out of nowhere, said, Nope, they shouldn’t be able to do them anymore.

47:20 – Health is multi dimensional, and if you don’t believe it’s multi dimensional, then you’ve been lied to, and you’re buying the lie. Chiropractic is not the end all be all, but when it comes to making sure that my brain and my body are properly communicating, so that when I do exercise, when I do eat right, when I do meditate, when I do my massages, when I do any type of medical intervention, at least my body’s processing it the right way, right it’s it’s getting the information the right way, and it’s using it. But if I’m so drugged up and my brain doesn’t know truth from, you know reality from fiction, because it’s being lied to by all the chemistry that’s in my body, then how do you ever expect your body to be healthy? This is why, I mean, I remember growing up at one aspirin a day. It’s what you do for your heart. Now we have so many gastrointestinal issues, it’s unbelievable.

01:05:00 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

I’m going to answer that in two different ways. Number one, for me personally, my legacy is just to get people to think differently. If you just, if you’re just willing to think differently, I don’t care where that takes you. Maybe it takes you away from my opinion. I don’t care. I just don’t want you to believe what someone else told you to believe. I want you to believe something because you did the work and you gathered the information you needed to do it. I Some of my best friends are on the other side of the political spectrum, but I love them because it’s just the way they view the world. It’s not that they’re buying into someone else’s BS. And so we don’t have to agree. I can celebrate our differences and respect you because of your commitment and your diligence, even if it’s different than mine, because I think our world needs difference of opinion in order to get to a true, raw, appropriate product, anything untested, anything unchallenged, will never be the best ever, ever. That’s why we’re at a four minute mile because someone thought they could beat the five minute mile, and someone we’re at a five minute mile because someone said they could beat a six minute mile. Beat a six minute mile, right? Like nothing ever is better, unless there’s some challenge or contrast to it. And so I just my personal legacy. I hope, even though my niche is chiropractic, if you hear me, and for some reason, God puts things in a and we cross paths. Think differently. Just think differently, challenge what you’ve been told, and come up with your own understanding.

My the second way that I’m going to answer that question is, guys, I’m so blessed and happy because I found something I was passionate about, and my passion is stronger than my fear, and so it allows me to take steps forward. I just just at an event this weekend, speaking to a group of chiropractors and team members. And, you know, I just my talk went off the rails because I just something was on my heart, and I just followed it. And it was pretty much that I was looking in the audience. I saw so many people that just were not happy. They just weren’t happy with where they were in life, what they were doing. You know, they love their job, they love their chiropractor. It’s better than, you know, working in the factory or whatever. But they just, you could just see it in them. They weren’t exuding this passion for life, and it just broke my heart. I’m like, you know, my days are stressful. I definitely have crappy days. Everything brings that with it, but I am genuinely blown away, happy and blessed to do what I get to do. And you know, there’s, there’s a quote that they have for fear, that fear is a figment of our imagination, causing us to fear things that do not at present and may not ever exist. Danger is real, but fear is a choice, and I really weighed on that with them. And I’m like, I’m just asking you to choose to be passionate about something more than you fear it. And if we can find and it doesn’t matter what it is, if it’s kids, if it’s music, if it’s sports, if it’s healthcare, if it’s nutrition, if it’s exercise, whatever it is, get passionate about something in your life, and that passion will outweigh the fear that’s limiting you from chasing it, whatever that is, chase it because you were put on this earth to make to be a difference maker, to be a change agent. You just have to believe it and find something that you’re excited enough about to take those first few steps that seem so scary, but. Passion is going to override that fear. So that’s my challenge. That’s my legacy message to everyone, find something you’re so unbelievably passionate about so it gives you the confidence to take those steps to go towards it.

24:40 – Disinfectants like our products are specifically designed as oxidizers to destroy other chemical contaminants. Our Cleaners are specifically designed for Mycotoxins, and we’ve done research as well as published a white paper from that hard work. Let’s not forget the other contaminants like the VOCs aka Voltaile Organic Compounds, that are present in our environments. That new construction smell, off-gassing from paints, carpets, caulks, sealants and much more are different.

29:25 – The chemist who developed it, he had worked at Sherwin Williams for many, many years in non-toxic craft paints and things. So he had a very unique chemistry knowledge. He moved to the mountains up in Georgia, and started getting algae growing on the side of his house. So he developed a long term mold resistant coating that would stick to vinyl and give him many years of resistance performance,

40:00 – Today, a lot of kids are growing up in really toxic environments. It’s affecting their cognitive development while impacting their learning disabilities. These mycotoxins have been linked to childhood autism as well. It was a blessing to be able to grow up and have access to outside and clean air.

54:15 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

Superstratum is about solving the mold mycotoxin problem, but Hygia Living is really about that legacy mission. How do we live in our environments in the right way, so that it creates the reality of positive results for our health, the reality of our environment? We’re all chronically ill, and we’re all out of whack with that, and there are so many things that go into that. It’s not just, here’s your pill, swallow it with water. No, YOU have to take personal accountability and responsibility, and you have to move into action, and you have to be committed, and you have to be devoted.

Healing is not complicated, but it’s not easy, and that applies to healing the environment as well. So I always like to just encourage people to know when they start hearing these messages, it’s like these alarm bells are going off because they know the problem and they don’t want to face it. So that’s the first thing, is just encourage people to do that. Then, on a more practical basis, what I like to tell people, lot of times people hear this and they get confused and say, well, where do I even start? How do I know? What do I do?

We talked about some of the testing, what I’d like to tell people is, it’s really simple. When you travel and you go on vacation, or you leave your home for two to three days, does your energy come back? Does your brain fog go away? Does your skin clear up? Do your gut issues get a little bit better? Does your autoimmune disease not flare up as much? Then, when you go home again, did those things return? That means, almost certainly, that there’s something in the building that is contributing to that disease. Now, what it is from that point you can begin the journey. Sometimes it doesn’t matter, because the steps to fix that environment are the same, but that is the easiest thing that I like to tell people. It’s all about getting to that AHA moment and react to yourself with wait a minute, why have I been on this health journey for six years? Why can none of my doctors seem to get me better? Why do I keep taking the same medications and I’m not getting better? Sometimes that’s all it takes, and that will start the train for people to then move into action and heal their environment. That is the first step to getting your health back. It is all about getting to and living in that clean and healthy environment.

GLP-1’s and Metabolic Health Optimization with Dr. Todd Cevene

Scott Mulvaney — Wed, 20 Aug 2025 15:45:00 +0000

The True Cost of Injectable GLP-1 Medications vs Natural Healthy Options:

Your host Scott Mulvaney and Dr. Todd Cevene discuss the benefits of natural weight loss approaches over pharmaceutical solutions. Dr. Cevene, who has helped over 75,000 people and has 74 providers in 38 states, emphasizes the importance of addressing metabolic issues and insulin resistance. He highlights the success of his program, which averages 32+ pounds and 20+ inches of weight loss in 90 days, without exercise. They also touch on the limitations of traditional healthcare, the role of personal accountability, and the potential of compounding pharmacies. Dr. Sabine advocates for a holistic approach to health, focusing on diet and lifestyle changes. Todd Cevene emphasizes that effective health strategies, such as weight loss and blood sugar management, must be consistently applied and monitored for results. He stresses the importance of setting a good example for children, as they learn more from observing actions than from words. Scott agrees, noting the influence of parents’ behaviors on their children’s habits. They both advocate for passing on positive health knowledge to future generations.

Your Co-Host Today:

Our guest today is revolutionizing the weight loss industry with a natural approach that’s helped over 75,000 people transform their lives. Dr. Todd Cevene pioneered a breakthrough metabolic optimization system that helps people lose weight without exercise, strict diets, or medications. His system is now used by over 140 healthcare providers nationwide and has led to more than 2 million pounds lost naturally and sustainably.

Today’s Top 3 Takeaways:

Natural healthy approaches vs “Pharmaceutical Band-Aids”.
Understanding Peptides vs GLP-1 Medications.
The role of Personal Accountability in our Health.

Timestamped Show Notes:

05:00 – When you see commercials for semi glutides or GLP-1’s, they’re compounded, the feds have made those against the law out there and now illegal to compound, beginning next month, so you use a name brand prescription. The reason for that is because, when you’re doing the peptides, they aren’t regulated, so you don’t know. It could be a guy in a bathtub in China with his cat, and they’re making them, and you’re pumping that into your body hoping it’s going to make a difference.

28:40 – So without sounding too sarcastic with it, so in that same vein, if you say people want to be healthy, people that we talked about asking like the GLP compound of drugs, or the GLP weight loss drugs, people healthy will also start eating healthy. If you’re taking those medications and you’re just eating one piece of pizza instead of three, that’s not help.

31:20 – The metabolic ones, insulin, blood sugars, leptin, ghrelinn, adeno, pectin, etc. So when you start to control those metabolically, you start to burn more unhealthy fat than sugar, which is what people try to control on the Keto Diet, right? The Keto Diet is not bad as long as you can sustain it. But the average person can’t sustain it, unlike you’d mentioned, you’re able to do that. The average person can’t necessarily sustain that. So the way you keep weight off forever is you find a way for that particular patient so they can have the freedom to eat what they want, “within reason”, and still lose weight. So psychologically, if you feel like you’re not dieting and you’re losing inches of fat and weight, we’re on the home stretch.

52:55 – I was looking at again for a panel of like, 20 med spas that are starting this, and they’re getting rid of GLP1’s, they’re going for a program. The average patient loses 32.8 pounds. This is within a 90 day mark, and they lose up to 20.2 inches within 60 days. The average person loses two clothing sizes, or 10% of your body weight in 60 days is a very safe bet, like bet your house with a kid in it and take it to the bank.

58:45 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

The impact of children seeing mothers inject weight loss drugs to lose weight versus making healthy choices comes to them. Our own girls have told us over and over and over again, I can’t believe how bad everybody else eats, or I went to my friend’s house and the whole family is literally sitting around consuming bags of chips, and I couldn’t believe it. There wasn’t fruit, there wasn’t anything like natural veggies with the meal. They’re just astonished that not everybody does that, who needs that. So it’s, again, it was kind of an aha moment to me that you’re impacting families, and that how far that goes with kids and everything else as well. For all the women out there that have children or men that have children, that can become more aware, this is what they see and what they learn.

Wearables Health Tech and The Pulse Cure with Torkil Færø

Scott Mulvaney — Wed, 30 Jul 2025 17:00:00 +0000

Wearable Technology For Your Health:

Scott Mulvaney welcomes todays guest co-host, Dr. Torkil Færø, a freelance doctor from Norway with 26 years of experience. They discuss the importance of health, lifestyle balance, and technology in disease prevention and management. Dr. Færø emphasizes the role of wearables in monitoring health metrics like heart rate, stress levels, and sleep patterns. He shares his personal journey of losing 40 pounds and improving his health after his father’s death. They also touch on the limitations of traditional medical education and the potential of technology to empower individuals to take control of their health. Torkil’s book, “The Pulse Cure,” has been a success in Norway, focusing on heart rate variability and stress management. Scott and Dr. Færø discuss the benefits of heart rate variability (HRV) monitoring, particularly through wearable technology. Mulvaney shares his interest in using HRV to help his wife, a former on-call doctor, improve her sleep and circadian rhythm. Dr. Faarvaer highlights the application of HRV in veterinary medicine and with handicapped children. They emphasize the importance of personalized health management, noting that HRV data can reveal stress levels and improve self-awareness. Dr. Færø also mentions the feedback from thousands of users on Instagram, supporting the book’s findings. They agree on the value of wearable technology in empowering individuals to take control of their health.

Quote: “The doctor of the future will be oneself.” — Albert Schweitzer

Your Co-Host Today:

Dr Torkil Færø is a GP and emergency physician, documentary filmmaker, author and photographer. Over a 26-year career as a freelance doctor, he has worked all over Norway, had hundred thousand consultations and thus gained a unique picture of the diseases that plague us. He learned that the cause is most often found in the stresses our lifestyles place on our bodies. When his father died at 73, he realized that he had to change his own lifestyle. Being 40 pounds overweight, under-trained, over-stressed, under-slept and drinking alcohol daily, he learned that this lifestyle could deprive him of decades. Using wearables he found a way to track and regulate his nervous system and physiology.

Today’s Top 3 Takeaways:

Heart rate tracking, stress, and wearable technologies.
Individualized health in regards to personal accountability.
The role of HRV tracking and the future of health and technology integrations.

18:45 – Now we can use the technology on ourselves. That is just a major shift in the power in the healthcare system, where you take the power from the hospitals and the doctors and the different practitioners and you put it into your own hand. You have control with the wearables, with smart watches, with smart rings like Oura. Keeping track of the heart rate, your pattern of movement, the temperatures and your oxygen levels that these can track, and you get the control of your health.

30:45 – According to Whoop, like the Whoop band on my on my right arm here, they are gathering health information from their users. By far, the worse stresser is alcohol, and that is what I used to drink. I was thinking it was calming me down, helping me to sleep, but the sleep is just terrible under the influence of alcohol.

01:02:00 – I have some of the grounding aka earthing topic in my book that is out now in Norway, called The Rest Cure. Discussing stress, it’s about exercise, it’s about sleep, it’s about active rest, how you can calm yourself down. That seems to be the hardest thing for people. So that is why my publisher wanted a book only on the rest part of The Pulse Cure. That actually became a larger book than The Post Cure on 250 pages exploring how you can rest and what you do with the wearables so you can measure your rest. You may be thinking that you’re resting, but the wearable health tech will show that you have either been eating something you cannot tolerate, or you have been stressing so much that your body can’t get into the parasympathetic state, even if you think you’re relaxing. So that is why it’s important to also have this measurable rest that you can see on your watches or rings that your heart rate is in the parasympathetic mode.

01:25:00 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

The message would have to be that you are in more control of your health than maybe you think, and that it is easier to do it with feedback from wearables. I would end with the first words in my book, The Pulse Cure, it’s from Albert Schweitzer, the doctor who says, the doctor of the future will be yourself. So now we’re kind of already there. We have we can have control, and we can be our own doctors.

The Healthy Glutathione Revolution with Dr. Nayan Patel

Scott Mulvaney — Wed, 25 Jun 2025 00:30:00 +0000

Digging into ATP, Glutathione, and more:

Scott Mulvaney and Dr. Nyan Patel discuss the benefits of glutathione, a powerful antioxidant crucial for detoxification and overall health. Dr. Patel, a pharmacist with 30 years of experience, explains the challenges of delivering glutathione orally and the success of his patented transdermal glutathione technology. He highlights the importance of maintaining high glutathione levels to combat oxidative stress and prevent diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Dr. Patel shares his personal journey and success stories, including his father’s significant health improvements after using his product. They emphasize the need for personal health accountability and the potential of glutathione to enhance brain function and athletic performance. Nayan Patel shared the story of his father, who at 84 underwent double knee replacements and quickly recovered, walking out of the hospital two days post-surgery. Despite being advised to rest, his father traveled extensively, including to India and Africa. Despite a fall resulting in a skull fracture and internal bleeding, his father remained positive and resilient. Nayan emphasized the importance of mindset and glutathione supplementation, which he believes played a crucial role in his father’s recovery. He also discussed the broader impact of his work, aiming to help millions through his company, Auro Wellness, and his book, “The Glutathione Revolution.”

Quote: Fight Disease, Slow Aging, and Increase Energy with the Master Antioxidant! ~ Dr. Nayan Patel

Your Co-Host Today:

DR. NAYAN PATEL is a sought after pharmacist, wellness expert, and thought leader in his industry. He has been working with physicians since 1999 to custom develop medication for their clients and design a patient specific drug and nutrition regimen. He has been the pharmacist of choice to celebrities, CEOs and physicians themselves. He recently published his first comprehensive book, The Glutathione Revolution: Fight Disease, Slow Aging & Increase Energy. After 11 years of clinical research on the master antioxidant, glutathione, Dr. Patel and his team developed a patented technology to deliver Glutathione topically, changing the game on how best to absorb GSH systemically. From this technology he additionally developed The Auro GSH Antioxidant Delivery System to create a skincare line to deliver antioxidants more efficiently and effectively than ever before at potent concentrations.

Today’s Top 3 Takeaways:

The topical delivery method of glutathione is far superior to oral, consumable, IV forms of delivery.
Positive healthy impacts of glutathione use again oxidative stress, brain fog, neuroplasticity, cellular repair, and more.
The benefits of serving yourself as an N-1 experiement, investing in functional medicine, regular blood work anlysis, and more.

06:30 – It’s just crazy how much money they’re making. But one thing that did not work was liposomal glutathione, and it doesn’t work on me. I said, wait a second, I was getting results, but not getting results for everything, not for all my patients.

10:35 – I started looking at the research, and I figured out that in 1991 there was a study done. It’s published in the in the NIH, now on the PubMed, so it’s all over the place, that they give two grams of IV push, of glutathione, 100% of glutathione was in the urine in five to fifteen minutes.

19:15 – The body is absorbing it, breaking it down, taking all the building blocks and producing its own glutathione. Now, if you have a gene mutation, gstp, gstm or GGT, if you have enzyme defects, you cannot conjugate glutathione. I don’t care what product you take.

37:18 – So that’s the reason why glutathione is so important to everybody to keep this door shut at all times on the bad. But now, if you shut the door down and there is a damage inside your body, you still have to fix the damages. You still have to eat the right nutrients and do the right things, or people do stem cells therapy, or people do all kinds of things to basically get all the dirt ready. Yeah, once the dirt is ready and dumped into the liver, guess what, glutathione can go back and take the dirt and get rid of it too.

52:00 – So for healthy subjects, we find out what the dose was going to be. It started after we released the product in 2020, then we found out that many of the people, they are sick, they need higher glutathione. So a year later is when we released the stronger version. So the stronger version is good for people that have high needs of glutathione, and it’s just a temporary need. Anyways, they use it for three months, six months, up to a year, year and a half, and then they go back to the regular version for rest of their life. Keep in mind, the body recycles things. 50% of glutathione gets recycled by the body, which is due to oxidative stress. If it’s conjugation, the body gets destroyed. The body destroys all the glutathione. If you drink alcohol, all the glutathione is destroyed.

56:30 – So you can quit alcohol today. You can help heal, you can aid your body. It takes some help with glutathione to kind of do the work for liver until the liver gets healthy, but in 12 to 15 months, you can literally improve your liver health to go back to normal as best as possible again, which is essential for long term health.

01:23:00 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

I have created this thing, not for my personal growth. It’s to help serve mankind. I’m here to make sure that everybody has a hope, a chance to survive, chance to thrive, chance to live the full potential of their life. My job is to give the essential building block, the most important molecule that the body needs, and provide how to make sure that nobody’s ever deprived of that one. I’m spending my time and resources to educate people, because in the marketplace, there’s so much noise that the people are kind of getting buried into this sea of information. So how do you find the right information, that is true for you. So I’m out there bustling and hustling and talking to anybody and everybody and any doctor that they call, so called gurus of glutathione. I will talk to them head on and explain to them my technology. So far, I have never failed a case. Knock on wood, I want to make sure that I don’t get too cocky about that one, I want to be humble that I won’t. I’m here to serve the human beings that are on, that are out there trying to help themselves feel better and not I’m not entertaining the big shots. They’ve already made it. I want, I want to serve the people that need the help, and so that’s why I’m reachable. I’m available. If you just contact my website, they will put you through to me directly. If I’m really busy, I may be a day late to get to you, but I will get to every single person that’s out there. I want to connect with everybody, and I want to help everybody as much as possible.

34:00 – Well, the gamble becomes, given your tolerance for risk, given your personality, like you said, the gamble became pretty clear. For one, my former career was mental health. So I was 20 years as a mental health therapist, master’s degree, and making $45,000 a year. That’s poverty, that’s a crime. Even if you make $250-500,000 a year, it doesn’t matter like when you’re in corporate and you have a title that goes along with it, at some point, you’re signing your soul away for you to make that money, you’re gonna have to work more. You have to do all those things. But as an entrepreneur, you can make infinite money without always having to work harder.

40:10 – Let me full serve that real quick. One thing I love about this is like you’ve given me a lot of props over the years since I met you over running chainsaws, volunteering, building mountain biking trails, and hearing those horror stories and just me telling you, like, bro, start easy. Just start listening to podcasts. Get into the audiobooks, start geeking out. That was just some of the earlier shit we discussed. But technically, what I loved full circle tonight was what you just said a few minutes ago, before the word vomit, is the fact that actually Dave’s one of your earlier mentors, before you met me.

64:50 – I’m the same person, but because I have more financial freedom, I can fix most problems and help build most dreams, most of which are for other people that I care about. Therefore, that’s when I say money matters.

73:00 – I worked for one person my whole life, my dad. I moved on, I went on, I kept going. I saw my own thing, but that’s the family, but again, the lightest, most laid back guy here. He taught me everything.

82:00 – Final Words

Oxidative Stress, Healthy Longevity, and ESS60

Scott Mulvaney — Sat, 24 May 2025 11:00:00 +0000

Today we discuss the carbon molecule ESS60 and it’s applications for Oxidated Stress, Longevity of life, and more:

Scott Mulvaney and Chris Burris discuss the health benefits of ESS60, a Nobel Prize-winning molecule discovered in 1985. ESS60, a spherical molecule of 60 carbon atoms, was found to extend the life of Wistar rats by 90% when dissolved in olive oil. Chris explains that ESS60 buffers oxidative stress by holding reactive oxygen species until the body can manage them, enhancing mitochondrial function. Chris shares testimonials from athletes like Anthony Kunkle, who use ESS60 to prevent damage and improve performance. The product is recommended for those under high stress or engaging in intense physical activities. Chris Burres discussed MyVitalC’s products, emphasizing the benefits of olive oil and ESS60 for health. He highlighted the challenges of FDA regulations and the importance of transparency in the supplement industry. MyVitalC’s products, including olive oil, avocado oil, and MCT oil, are tested frequently for quality. He stressed the importance of addressing aging as a disease to achieve longevity escape velocity, supported by the rapid increase in medical information.

Quote: “We can change the expression of more than 70 percent of the genes that have a direct bearing on our health and longevity.” ~ David Perlmutter

Your Co-Host Today:

CHRIS BURRES is the founder and chief scientist at MyVitalC, where he manufactured a Nobel Prize-winning molecule responsible for the single longest longevity experimental result in history–a full 90% extension of life. He is also a published author, host of the Uncovering the Secrets to Longevity Health Summit, a podcast host, patent holder and master of comedy improv. He is the intersection where science meets laughter and his life’s mission is to help people live longer, healthier, happier, pain-free lives with science.

Timestamped Show Notes:

13:10 – Out of this vaporized graphite, you’re probably getting 80-90% of this molecule. The reality is, we’re getting 90% amorphous carbon junk and 10% of fullerenes. This ESS60 molecule is one of the most abundant fullerenes. So it’s a very inefficient process, then you got to isolate it, and then you turn it into ESS60, which is the process for people and pets. That’s when the kind of supplement side of things starts. You actually mix it in vats, in olive oil, to get it to dissolve, because the molecules are not water soluble. You need a fat based element like EVOO.

21:30 – It is six carbon molecules, with a ring shape. So six carbon molecules, when it’s alone, it’s a carcinogen and toxic to us. So it’s known to be toxic, known to be a carcinogen. So they thought this molecule would be toxic, and they put it in that toxicity study. In that study, they used Wistar Rats as the subjects. In this case, they gave one group water, one group olive oil, and then one group olive oil with as much of the ESS60 molecule as they could get to dissolve in it. Instead of being toxic, the test subjects that they gave the ESS60 formula lived 90% longer than the control group. So a full 90% extension of life in Wistar rats, peer reviewed, published research. You can imagine, that’s the thing that changed us from being happy go lucky, carbon nanomaterial scientists.

47:15 – In that original study, they did a very interesting thing. My actually Director of Research said, at one point. This could have been five separate papers, because there’s so much stuff in it. One of the things was they injected a group of rats, so not the main rats that live 90% longer, but some group of rats, they injected them with carbon tetrachloride. This is a poison that causes Oxidative Stress to the liver. And so each of the rat groups, the ones given water, the ones given olive oil, their livers did not repair recover from this injection. It was the ESS60 in olive oil that those rats livers were on the mend. They did euthanize all the rats and check out their livers. It was only the ESS60 rats whose livers had repaired themselves.

The METAL MEN Brotherhood with Will Henshall

Scott Mulvaney — Tue, 20 May 2025 14:00:00 +0000

A Brotherhood of MEN Inspiring MEN:

Will Henshall is a multifaceted business leader and one of the leaders of the “METAL MEN.” community.

Timestamped Show Notes:

06:50 – METAL.MEN is who we are, that’s the website. That’s what we are. We’re a men’s group of inspiration, adventure, brotherhood, so let’s dig in on our interesting group of guys.

24:35 – In the METAL MEN group, guys come to us often looking for help with something they’re looking for help with. You know, career advice, or you’ve hit a plateau in what you’re doing, or you want to find out what next. You are just looking for something, right? But guys that stick around stay for the Brotherhood. That is what you’re talking about, the human connection. Being in a space where meeting guys who are very similar to the way you look at things, but from many different backgrounds.

44:00 – I don’t ride motorcycles anymore, the one in 600 but this is actually a specific thing. This is about commuting to work as you get in a sort of ongoing route that you get used to, and you start relaxing, which you should never do, do not become complacent, right? If there was an accident and you survive, the odds are you are going to ride a different way afterwards. How are you going to manage that risk? Sometimes you just have to accept there is a risk, and it’s part of life, right? The fifth thing that we have out of the eight is our BROTHERHOOD. Successful MEN need other successful men. We come from a community and metal of heart centeredness. METAL is completely independent. We are not affiliated with any publishing, religious, political, etc. We are an independent community.

1:05:40 – The answer to that is actually brotherhood and community. It’s about connecting with guys who’ve been very successful or are on the way to being very successful, who can then lean in and just be with you because they’re in the same place. Choosing conscious Brotherhood is different than just meeting guys when you’re out in the world. If you’ve got kids, you meet the friends, you meet your kids, friends, and fathers. What do you have in common? Likely not very much, but you’ve got your kids in common, and so you’ll end up in this kind of hinterland of having these men, male relationships around you. You don’t really have anything in common, and you couldn’t really say, well, you know, I’m in a really dark depression because my dream came true six weeks ago.

01:20:59 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

I think I can sum up what you’re talking about in terms of sort of a personal development frame, which is you, you seem to be a perfect example of a guy who knows himself more. Now, when you were a kid, you didn’t know yourself then, and there are lessons that you go through to know yourself better. The secret to happiness in your late 40s, early 50s and onwards is knowing yourself, and it’s finding your purpose and understanding where your weaknesses are. Impulse control, if you come from a family where you have addiction in the family, just be aware that may well be integrated into your DNA and in a way that you could fall off that wagon pretty quick. Just be conscious of it, that is a thing. Know yourself.

Headache Advantage with Dr. Scott Vrzal

Scott Mulvaney — Tue, 22 Apr 2025 13:30:00 +0000

Healing Headaches By Understanding The Origins of Your Pain:

The hosts today discuss the common issue of headaches and the role of chiropractic care. Dr. Vrzal, a chiropractor with over 30 years of experience, shares his personal journey with headaches and his advocacy for drug-free, holistic solutions. He explains the seven specific headache patterns linked to various organs and the importance of listening to the body. Dr. V emphasizes the role of nutrition, supplementation, and stress management in maintaining health. He also highlights the limitations of traditional medicine and the benefits of functional medicine and biohacking. The conversation underscores the need for personal accountability in health and the value of integrative approaches. Dr. V discusses the connection between physical symptoms like upper trap tension and sacroiliac pain with underlying health issues such as blood sugar problems and yeast infections. They emphasize the importance of listening to one’s body and being an advocate for one’s health to improve quality of life. Dr. V suggests that if one were to see the future consequences of poor health choices, like eating sugar and grains, it would be a powerful motivator to change behavior. They also mention that certain foods, like corn, can trigger health problems like cortisol dumping and ovarian cysts. Scott agrees, noting the impact of inflammatory responses on joint pain and the importance of sharing health knowledge through their podcast. They both stress the significance of being proactive in health management and the enduring value of educational content.

Quote: “Headaches are the unseen foes in our daily lives, striking unexpectedly yet universally.”

Dr. Scott Vrzal, driven by constant debilitating headaches in his youth, was cured by a Chiropractor. He pursued a career in the same discipline inspired by the change. Initially misdiagnosed and advised to consult a psychiatrist due to the pain, he embarked on a mission to understand headaches’ root causes. With over 30 years of expertise, Dr. Vrzal refines pain patterns, advocates drug-free and holistic solutions, and shares his methods to a healthier lifestyle. His thriving practice reflects a personal commitment to health, performance, and relieving patients’ pain.

Today’s Top 3 Takeaways:

Pay attention to how your body responds to each meal, identify trigger foods.
Experiment with eliminating inflammatory foods like factory chicken, tomatoes, peppers (night shades), and grains.
Stablize blood sugar through your focus on diet and exercise to improve focus, sleep, and overall health.

Timestamped Show Notes:

02:00 – Headaches are a hot subject for me, I got into it bcause of my headaches and my my lust for performance. I was a natural bodybuilder at the time and I’d get pounding headaches every time I did bench press.

10:30 – If the pec or clavicular muscle is not firing properly, we look at stomach function. If they have a low back pain in the flank area, we look at large intestine function. So when we we identify what the primary weakness is, and that’s the beauty of of headaches for me, I’ll circle back to that. But again, every muscle has associated organs. When we find these organ dysfunctions, these weaknesses, then we look at, is it a structural need or structural compromise that’s compromised in the muscle?

15:10 – It could be that you’re drinking your water out of a plastic bottle and you’re getting the estrogenic effects from from the plastics. It’s because at one of those pathways in the liver, we were just referring to, like your glutathione pathway. Maybe that’s not breaking the hormones down properly and it’s setting you up for this type of headache. So I would suspect when you’re currently on your your glutathione products, that you’re proably going to be a lot less likely to have those types of headaches.

26:15 – We want to keep the keep the toxic metals out, which means pesticides and that sort of stuff. So eating the organic vegetables, getting those, you know, grains are all adulterated. They have that Roundup influence, the glyphosate in there that compromises gallbladder function, which is why the right sided headache is the most common type of headache in America.

37:15 – When we’re stuck in that state, then we get the frontal headaches. We have compromised the stomach lining. You know, cortisol is a catabolic hormone, ultimately, and which means it breaks the body down. It’s going to break down muscle. So certainly, when we’re over training, we’re breaking down muscle. We need to then heal up and recover properly. So that frontal headache means that you’re not managing that, the body’s not managing the stress hormones properly, and it’s going to manifest as a frontal.

01:00:00 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

It’s about changing the way people perceive health and what their body is trying to tell them pain is, I mean, with the applied kinesiology that the approach to healthcare that I use, it’s very, very, very evident that every, not you know, fibromyalgia, is 25 different pain patterns, or you know, different things like that, every not tells a story. So my I’m here to try to empower you the listener, to listen to what that pain is telling you. Any I mean, upper trap tension is typically a blood sugar problem, tent pain and the weakness and weak, weakness on the side of the neck, blood sugar feeding yeast, and that’ll manifest as sacroiliac pain, or low back, you know, tailbone kind of pain. So all of those have it tell a story, and I made it my, my life’s mission to, you know, any you know, Scott points to somewhere, you know here, I know, okay, that’s a lung issue, oh, that’s a gallbladder issue, that’s an adrenal issue, and I can go right to it, and then then there’s specific food triggers or lifestyle issues that are going to cause that.

So my whole thing, my my MO at this point, my legacy is listen to your body. It’s trying to tell you a story and be your own advocate. To identify what that is. Quality of life goes up, you know, the quantity of years. But even more importantly, the quality of those years exponentially changes. I’ve often said the best practice management tool I could have would be a crystal ball, you know. You know, Scott, you quit eating, you know, sugar, sugar and grains. This is how you’re, you know, you’re going to look in feel in 80 years. You know, you quit eating, you keep eating your sugar and grains. This is how you’re going to look and feel if you make it another 30 years, you know. So I mean, that would be the best motivating tool we could have. But pain is, is kind of that crystal ball to help us understand, oops, these choices are compromising my health. So let’s learn from them. Let’s be our best advocate that’s going to inspire their doctors. You know, the listener, your doctor, is going to potentially shift their paradigm as they recognize you figuring these things out. Then they’re going to tell the next person you know, hey, just you know, Scott quit eating sugar, and his neck pain went away. What about you?

04:15 – Double ribeyes are my dinner every night, and most of the nights it’s a triple ribeye, so I eat more than any person that I sit down with.

13:00 – I was starting from a very dirty diet, and I saw that quick weight loss as like, oh my gosh, this is the miracle diet, miracle cure. I was so impressed that I told myself, the Vegan Diet is absolutely the best diet. I’m gonna stick to this for as long as I need to…

15:10 – I had my autoimmune psoriasis condition ever since I was a child. So as long as I can remember, and for me to keep it at bay, I had to use topical prescriptions. So for me, the life changing benefit, Veganism didn’t help, but Carnivore helped me get off all prescription topical creams and literally just cure it. I never have flare ups anymore.

23:00 – People who aren’t open minded, when they look at your content, and they automatically assume things because they’re already closed minded to begin with. So they will assume the most extremes. They’re never going to watch your content and be reasonable. So the content that I post, at least, is created for the people who are already informed, already “Carnivore Curious. But somehow a lot of my posts get viral. They blow up overnight or something like that, and then I look at the comments the next day, and most of the comments are all naysayers. They just don’t understand.

29:20 – The Steak and Butter Gang is just my private community for those who need that extra help and guidance, so I’ve set up the steak and butter gang to be an online community. You basically get to hop on almost daily zoom calls with my team of coaches, moderators, etc. The magic is in the live zoom calls, because you actually get to talk to carnivores of 3, 4, 5, 6+ years of experience. We talked about Dr. Chaffee a lot, I invite carnivore doctors like Dr. Chaffee, Dr. Baker, and others to do monthly Q and A’s.

01:17:30 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

This year, I think the main theme of my life, and I did turn 28 a few months ago, so I feel like I’m still a baby. I get to hang out with so many great carnivores and just this conversation alone, I learned so much from you. I feel like this year, for the theme, it should be, spread kindness, love, and question everything. So these things I find I’ve been doing every single day, spread love and kindness above all, and at the same time question everything. Every single day, I learn something new, but that’s because I keep an open mind. Even carnivore things. There are videos where I’m like, automatically we make all these assumptions, but then I keep the open mind, and I always walk away learning something new. So I hope people who listen to your episode, they question everything, they are okay with unlearning things that they thought were facts, and they spread love and kindness. That’s what I would want to share.

Timestamped Show Notes:

13:40 – I would say you could call it desensitized, or you could call it discernment and adaptation. I’m in the business of helping people become better adapted to modern stress, which basically means they’re able to maintain your center right in as conditions all around you increase in chaos. You actually drop in more deeply because you have the ability to discern. Like, is this life and death for me, or is this an opportunity for me to, in your case, share the skills that you have inherently. I’m in the same way, like I’ve been out rock climbing and watched somebody fall and dislocate a leg, and I walk over and I’m like, okay, get them stable. Then we put their leg back into position. They’re like, how did you do that?

24:10 – That is actually stress release and recovery. So the emotion, like a person like you, I’m actually very similar in the way. I can show up in an emergency or in someone’s life that is going through chronic issues, like disease. I can show up with dozens of them around and so I’m just serving, serving, serving, serving, serving. I can stay really centered and grounded, because it’s what lights me up. This is what my nervous system, what I’ve groomed it to do.

53:50 – We teach people how to do this and teach movement. It’s called EDU Immersion, a practical spinal maintenance. Have a happy spine, calm, and I give out a free workshop on it. So you’ll learn about stress, the neurophysiology of stress, and then how to work with your system with movement. So I mentioned, whenever you stress out, you always lateralize into one hemisphere. Well, what’s beautiful about the body is that left hemisphere controls right side of the body and vice versa. So if I have a movement system that crosses my midline regularly, and what happens is it forces cross modal communication in the two hemispheres. So now those hemispheres are starting to compare data and go, wait, why are we in a stress state right now? You know based on what we’re seeing right now, there’s no bear out there. So you get to create congruence between the two hemispheres, the brain waves slow down into alpha and theta in the body to get that parasympathetic sympathetic balance. So that’s really why we have an online course for that as well, called Moving Back Into Balance.

01:0:50 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

One key point is that your body is brilliant. Your being is brilliant, like what you’re capable of is far beyond what you could ever even imagine. So this is an invitation for you to lean into that. Lean into that by getting outside, by talking nicely to yourself and asking good questions, by valuing yourself with good choices. We’re making choices every day, all day, and one of the biggest choices, I would say, is to start to see everything that’s happened in your life as on the way, rather than in the way. Because as you make that change, and you start to reflect on this conversation we’ve had today, you start to look at these things that you’ve thought, Damn, that was in the way. If you can start to shift and ask, how is it on the way? You start to, as my friend Dr. John Demartini says, you become no longer a victim of reality, but a master of destiny. You move from being a victim to whatever is happening to you, to recognize your creative powers, your self-authorship that you get to meet every moment, and you’re filling in that content. You’re the meaning maker. So if you just own that and bring the pen back in your hand and get out of the victimhood thing, you can do incredible things. Everyone has a value that’s equally valuable to everyone else, because we’re all on a unique journey here as a soul in the human body.

Welcome to a new and unique episode with podcast hosts John Ryan and Ryan Murphy, co-founders of a new podcast called Valeo Mentis. John Ryan, is a Senior Equine Specialist impacting large animal veterinarian needs with 19+ years of experience. Ryan Murphy brings us a background in finance and veterinary sales as well. They discuss their podcast’s focus on the equine veterinary industry. They aim to address challenges such as mental health, work-life balance, and the attrition rate among our valued veterinarian doctors.

Scott shares his experience in podcasting, emphasizing the importance of high-quality content and audience engagement. They also discuss potential monetization strategies and the value of building a loyal email list. The discussion centers on monetizing a podcast ethically, with suggestions including implementing a paywall, using affiliate links, and maintaining a supportive community. Scott shared experiences of accidentally gaining clients organically through this show and emphasized the importance of clear disclosure for affiliate links. They all highlighted the need for community building and shared insights on using AI for editing. They also hit on the importance of aligning monetization strategies with a podcast show’s mission.

Today’s Top 3 Takeaways:

Understanding the big challenges and tenure impacts, attrition rates, in the veterinary industry.
Setting boundaries, prioritizing personal time, feeling less alone, for the big picture of “work/personal life balance”.
Setting goals and future plans in podcasting for Valeo Mentis and beyond.

Who & What is Valeo Mentis?

Valeo Mentis is a podcast dedicated to connecting people within the veterinary community through meaningful stories, insights, and resources. The title itself, Valeo Mentis, is derived from Latin, where “Valeo” means “to be strong” or “to thrive,” and “Mentis” refers to the “mind” or “spirit.” Put together, it translates roughly to “thriving minds” or “strengthening the mind.”

Timestamped Show Notes:

22:00 – I always remind people, guess where most people start their podcasts, is it in the garage, in their bedroom? No it’s the closet, it’s about finding that smaller room, less chance of an echo, less noise reverberation off of the walls. If you have clothing hang in there, you push it to the sides, again, extra sound matting, and especially if you don’t have an upgraded microphone yet.

28:15 –We talk to equine veterinarians all day long and we wear a lot of different hats in the roles that we have, and half the time, I feel like we’re almost a little bit like therapists. People just want to talk, and they want to talk through their issues. So we spend a lot of time just listening to people kind of talk about what’s going on and what the challenges are. There’s a really unfortunate phenomenon in our large animal industry, people come into it straight out of school, and they wind up leaving in a few years and going to a small animal or doing something completely different. So there’s this attrition rate on an already anemic level, the supply of veterinarians is hurting. There has always been mental health issues going on as well. Citizens do not realize how challenging the long hours are, late nights in the dark, etc.

33:00 – So there’s so many ways to access this wealth of knowledge or entertainment. If you’re somebody who’s spending all day in a car, no matter what you’re doing, whether you’re a veterinarian or a salesperson, and you’re not using that time to better yourself, either personally or professionally, you are missing a great opportunity to grow.

45:20 – There are “consultants” out there being recommended in some of the veterinary world, supposedly helping all of these veterinarians. Claiming they know how to grow their business and grow their sales. You have to do your due diligence, especially as doctors trying to understand entrepreneurship to grow and maintain a business while loving the clients’ animals.

50:00 – I actually had one veterinarian in Idaho who who did that after we had that profitability conversation. He took me out to breakfast, he bought breakfast for me, and he said, I just wanted to thank you. He said, I did what you said. I didn’t do it as extreme as you suggested, but I started making that move. I’m doing incrementally over time. He’s like, I am making more money. I’m working less hours, and the customers that I do have, that I’ve kept, are so much happier with me.

01:17:40 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

Ryan Murphy’s Final Words: I think listening to people’s stories is quite impactful, especially when you can relate to those stories, even people outside of the industry. Like John said before, it’s about community. So not feeling alone. That’s a big thing in the industry, and so I think that’s where I want them to end up, and I want them to hopefully build a community through our podcast. Valeo means to thrive, so it means mental health, but it means smeone who’s thriving in mental health. In one other word, significance, significance to the people that you love, or just significance in affecting change in the world. So I think if you boil life down, the purpose for us all, is significance.

John Ryan’s Final Words: It’s the fact that you’re not alone, and you don’t have to be alone in all of this. You might be struggling, but we ant you to know that you’re not alone. So it’s the root word for us, it’s about Valor, so trength, and Mentis is about the Mind.

Timestamped Show Notes:

14:00 – My definition of success is being able to make change in our world. How do you do that? You gotta put yourself in a position of power. What’s a position of power? Yes, I’m a CEO of a company that right now has multiple locations, we are nationwide, it’s fantastic. That’s still not going to give me my definition of success. Ultimately, my goal is to be able to sit in a seat, in a legislative role, a political role, to be able to make some of these changes that have caused so many hiccups and a lot of difficulty for me to grow my own business.

29:35 – The topic on GLP-1, it’s a peptide. So it does have a tremendous amount of benefits, and the clinical research behind it is actually showing some positive data, even for myocardial health.

46:00 – My goal is to change the course of medicine, with my medical team, and all of my partners that I have. We got sick and tired of the traditional medicine. So changing the course of medicine, and you know, there’s certain ways that we’re doing it, obviously, as a franchise, or we’re bringing this to the masses.

54:55 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

My goal here is to let people understand what’s most valuable. You always hear people talk about the dollar, the yen, the crypto, you know. Truthfully, the most valuable currency on earth is your health. So that’s what leads me to tell you, “Health Is Wealth”!

Final Words Timetamped:

01:04:30 – Rob’s Final Words: I said it before on your show, and it’s a rule I follow as well to help you stick to your goals or resolutions or whatever you want to title them for 2025 write them down, title it and then if you’re done writing it down, take the time to write a paragraph afterwards. Whatever the goal is, whatever you guys use, write it down, and then do something no one does after they write it down. If you wrote it down, you’re already 90% above everybody else. Take that last 10% and read it out loud. Then if you find yourself falling off or not sure why, just pull it back out. Don’t forget about it. The more you write, the more you can focus. People don’t write things out anymore. I’m not talking about typing it. Don’t type it and no, don’t put in your phone. Get a pen and a paper and write it down like you learned in elementary school.

01:06:20 – Final Words from Brian: I just bought a really good new journal. I’m a big journal guy and value writing things down. I was talking to my wife the other day because I got some lofty goals again for ’25, trying to get my life in check, as I always am doing. I need to come up with a journal that really encompasses. I don’t want a weight loss journal. I don’t want a diet journal. I don’t want a weightlifting journal. I don’t want a Business Journal. I want a journal that’s a lifestyle journal that really has bits and pieces. I’m not trying to lose weight. I’m not trying to build the mega business. I’m trying to do all of it. I want to create the total package and and I started doing some Googling and dicking around on Amazon and stuff, and found, I don’t remember the name of the damn company, but I found a very good journal that kind of does that for me. So I’ve already been sitting there writing down doing exactly what you’re talking about those things. Yeah, I got it. It’s all down.

01:10:20 – Final Words from Chris: All words are wise. Something that really resonated with me tonight was Brian mentioned it earlier. You know, driving your kids to school, spending that 15 minutes with them, that’s something that, I’ll be honest, it fucking annoys the shit out of me. Driving the kids to school sometimes, because it’s, I have enough going on and driving the kids to school, there’s five of them. It’s two different trips back and forth. But, you know, I kind of take that for granted, and those are times where you’re right, I’m never gonna fucking get them back.

Timestamped Show Notes:

11:00 – It’s not about trying to create false positivity or be in a positive state all the time. Life is going to throw things at you. You’re going to have ups and down flows. You’re not always going to be in a good mood. I am not always in a good mood. I have stresses. We all, we all have stresses, right?

36:00 – If you don’t want positive messages, just text back pause positive messages, and it’s going to turn those off for you. Then you can focus on your gratitude journaling, your three good things, your dream journaling, or other meditations. You know, we have all kinds of activities now. You can turn on daily meditations, gratitude reminders, and/or three good things. You may be getting four texts a day at least, maybe even five sometimes, so you should adapt it to you.

46:30 – Before they started at all, they took a modified differential emotion scale questionnaire, MDS questionnaire, and that questionnaire is 20 questions. It’s available for anyone to use on take two minutes, but ideally, it ranks your positivity against your negativity. So it gives you a score of how positive or how negative you are.

01:00:45 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

That quality time by yourself is doing something. It can be yoga. It can be meditating. Obviously, Take 2 Minutes is a lot of meditations. But definitely spend some quality time on self improvement every day. Yes, it’s tough. I know, I have Take 2 Minutes. I’m the CIO of a company. I have another company I just started. So I have a lot going on. There are days where I feel like I wake up at 5am and I really want to start working right off the bat, but I know that’s not the healthy thing to do.

The healthy to do is to spend a good 30 minutes on myself, whether it be journaling, yoga, meditating, exercising, or something positive. I gotta spend some me time, otherwise the whole day is not going to be as productive as it could be. So I think that’s what I would like to share with everyone, is find a way to spend time improving yourself. That is a very generic term, because improving yourself is different for each person and the time of day you do it can be different for each person too. Maybe it works better for you after work, maybe it works better for you before bed, but definitely take time out for yourself every day to improve who you are and get yourself into a better mindset.

08:25 – There’s a distribution center for multiple spores and the little known aspect of mold, which is mycotoxins. Myco being the Greek word for fungus and toxins, obviously a poisonous substance. So when you’re dealing with the health end of it, that’s if you go to a doctor that specializes in mold toxicity, they’re looking at how can they pull the mycotoxins out of your body, through binders and things along those lines. But interesting enough, most of the guys in this space don’t even look for mycotoxins. They might do an air sample, but that’s just testing for spores. The thing that’s actually the most poisonous for humans is what mold releases to defend its territory, which is a mycotoxin.

17:30 – Mold loves glue and it loves wood. So you’re gonna have a moldy mess throughout the entire house, which we’ve definitely seen that too. The the most important thing on preventing mold is making sure that your home is as dry and clean as possible. Sometimes you have to think preventative.

28:00 – How about not knowing where your whole house filter is? In this scenario, it had been a year and a half since she had changed the filter. So it was completely bio-nesting? It was full of mold, full of all kinds of growth, and both of her HVAC units were completely contaminated. It knocked her out for four months in regards to her health. She had returned from working on disaster relief activities in Turkey and got hit with some sort of a toxic kind of blast while she was there. They were burning off all kinds of toxic stuff over there. So she comes home, she’s not feeling well, she’s in her bed, and that’s where it hit here like a chain reaction. It just got worse and worse and worse.

55:00 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

I’m gonna tell you this, because you’re about to go through it. Make sure when you open up your walls, I don’t like to call it demolition, I like to call it precision deconstruction. You must really be precise. You don’t want to attack mold or aggravate it, if you do that, it’s like kicking a hornet’s nest. So you want to make sure that you do it as nicely as possible. But before you do it, you have containment, and ideally, you would have engineered a control.

08:40 – I was working on my mother’s treatment to find a cure for my mom’s cancer, that was years ago. I got so excited when I was able to help my mom and she’s living happy, healthy life up to today. So I was so excited because I started helping all these other people across the world to share my knowledge and help these people get better. There is no such thing as you’re gonna take one magical pill, even in chemo world. Your body is too complex of a mechanism.

19:00 – I did not know how to keep myself healthy. I was miserable with my health. I was a victim from pharmaceuticals. I was I was miserable from every angle and I could choose to be a victim in my life, or choose to win. I said, hell no, I’m not going to be a victim. I’m not going to be someone out there crying and whining. Long story short, I went through quite a few hard times and then I really got my life accomplished the way I wanted to.

46:50 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

That one thing that has actually mattered to me was to create a legacy with this company. I don’t even hire the employees on the team that are not interested to leaving the legacy themselves. So everyone is chose very carefully to work with Nesas Hemp or Regenesis 369 I know I’m not going to I’m going to try. I know it’s going to happen for fact, and the plans and the things I’m working on right now is going to create the revolution, and I’m not gonna continue to watch all the darkness, trying to accept how and push us and accept the darkness as okay. And I had enough of this, and I just know that I’m here, and we’re gonna push really hard and we’re gonna make it happen, because pushing hard looks great, but I know we’re going to make it happen. I have an amazing plan. It’s already working in the first phases.

So with that being said, I just want to see hate turning into the love and dark turning into the light, and I want people simply to be happy and healthy. I also want all the CBD industry to crash to be honest with you, because those are pharmaceutical drugs are sold on the market. Nobody knows people are taking drugs, and they think it’s coming from the plant. There is no CBD in the plant. Nobody knows about it. Just like you might CBD. No, you know, darling, you are taking actually a drug. And even smart Google tells you that. So I’m definitely create creating revolution in the industry, because it’s been four or five years, every time I’ve been interviewed by mainstream media or articles and things like that, which is, by now probably have 1000s. I can tell you this, that’s I can push sales, I can push marketing. I can push all that stuff.

The only one thing I push is education that doesn’t bring me money. So I bring, I bring the education. Because when we create when you’re smart, when nobody can ever trick you, when you know how to make your money, when you know how to be healthy, when you know God, so But nobody’s going to manipulate you, that’s the moment where I feel I achieved my goal, and that’s exactly where I’m going. So with my product, I know we’re gonna change the industry, and we’re gonna stop all these lies that hemp and cannabis and it’s all the same thing, and CBD, no, no, no, people need to know the truth. So that’s gonna happen. And with all these funds we actually making from Nesas Hemp, as I said, I’m creating something very big, and it’s happening. I personally chose not to sell my soul three times two for sure. The third one I was assuming. I was offered ridiculous amount of dollars, and I was told I’m an idiot by not taking it, but I was offered everything I had the whole life written in front of me how perfect life could be, and doors are open everywhere. And I said, No. I said, Absolutely no. So yeah, it’s absolutely that’s, that’s the legacy. We’re going to turn hate into love and dark into the into the light.

23:30 – My wife thought I was crazy, and she’s just like, you’re gonna take a week off, not run your business, and go to North Carolina?! I was like, yeah, it’s a slow week. I was like, we take vacations, so why not?! We had a couple of beautiful vacations this year. We did Greece, we did Costa Rica. I was like, I need to go help people. It’ll make me feel better.

40:00 – I went 20 minutes up into the mountains above Lake Lure, there is an HVAC contractor up there, Ridgeline Heating and Cooling. All of the local citizens just started working with him, and he turned his entire business into a giant Donation Center. So I drove up there, and it was so inspiring. I mean they have you just pull up to the front of the business and that’s where local fellow citizens pull in, and it’s like going shopping. Then down the side street of the business, that’s where I pulled up out back, and that’s where you can drop off donations like my sawyer supplies I was providing.

49:30 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

I mean, doesn’t matter who people are. We’re not qualifying these people in order to help them. We’re qualifying them only if you need help, and so I’m going to come help. That’s the whole story. That’s all that matters.

20:10 – We’ve got hotels for Haitians and and when we’ve got an open border again, no matter your political position. Okay, so all of this FEMA funding has been to support people that are not actually citizens of this country. Last time I checked, FEMA was paid for by me, a citizen. I want my tax dollars benefiting my fellow citizens who are struggling first.

31:30 – Why are we even talking about $750 a citizen right now? Granted, I’m not a FEMA trained person, but all you did was light a fire in people, because they heard how small the dollar amount was. You need to take every dollar you got and send convoys of supplies, generators, etc. to help get people back to a healthy state of life. It’s not even a level playing field right now.

48:30 – A lot of people are like, well, my work or my life doesn’t fulfill me. Well, then go earn the money so that you can go do the things to fulfill you. If people are always trying to find purpose, our work will never be done. People always trying to find purpose. I like having purpose in my work, and I really enjoy what I do.

01:01:55 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

It’s a shame these natural disasters are always going to happen. It’s a shame that this one is the worst in recorded history. I think it’s a blessing too, because we get the opportunity to take care of each other. I mean, as much as I don’t want bad things to happen to people, the next best thing is that we showed up.

10:40 – Oregon and Colorado are the only two ballot initiatives for that California had something that got through the legislature but was vetoed by the governor. He’s asking for some more guardrails before he signed something. So who knows what happens next year in California? A ton of different cities have done the second way people access psychedelics in America, which is decriminalizing them. So decriminalize means it’s not legal, but it’s been the law enforcement guideline in that area which has been told this is the lowest priority. We don’t spend any resources pursuing people who have small amounts of psychedelics. There are multiple cities in California, Ann Arbor, Michigan, Detroit, Michigan, Washington, DC, a bunch up in Maine, there’s a number of cities that have decriminalized psychedelics.

33:00 – Halfway… So back in the old days, there was just healer, and the healer was both a medicine doctor and a spiritual healer. As Western society developed, we said, oh no, we’re gonna gonna separate these roles and and doctors will be pure science and healers will be pure spiritual. Well, psychedelics plays in both realms. Psychedelics are learning to die before you die in many respects.

44:20 – It’s amazing, even Governor Perry from Texas became an advocate for psychedelics. There are over 309 academic institutions studying psychedelics now.

55:55 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

I think what I would leave behind for today is saying, look, while I talk about psychedelics for everyone, I don’t mean everyone should take a psychedelic. Please get educated and whether it’s for you, or for someone you love, or whether it just changes the way you talk at the water cooler or vote at the ballot box, these are powerful medicines that are going to change our world for good, and getting up to date and educated on them is important.

25:00 – The foundation of IZOD is in the definition, it stands for “In The Zone On Demand”. Because most of us have experienced being in the zone, but for most of us, it was by chance.

28:00 – When you’re in control, there is no stress, there is no worry, there is no fear, that just all goes away. So purpose and then taking control, having a plan, surrounding yourself with the right people, getting out of their comfort zone, those types of things. Then biohacking, upgrading that body, that mind, and that’s how we get into the zone. Ultimately, what I do with my clients is we create that scripted life. It becomes a set of power routines, like I have a morning power routine, evening power routine, a dream routine, and a health routine or a biohacking routine.

41:30 – If you do purposing, get control over your agenda/calendar, that just all dissipates. It is about control and clarity.

53:50 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

My superpower is that I really am helping people unleash their superpower, and I know how to do that, because, again, all of people are not awake, right? They’re just living a life, but not their life. So we need to wake them up. We need to see what their passion is and unleash your superpowers, not just step into it, because the world, quite frankly, needs all of our superpowers right now. It’s for people to really start using their common sense.

We’ve been told so many things. There’s so much propaganda out there, but just step back and go deep inside of yourself and learn some basics. We didn’t talk about those because there’s so many things we can talk about, but there’s so many fundamentals that don’t cost any money to upgrade that body and that mind of yours. It’s usually only when we dare to get out of that comfort zone that that’s where we find purpose out of our comfort zone, that’s where we grow, that’s where we can become extraordinary and unleash your superpowers. So take that moment, look in the mirror, and ask yourself if you’re living their passion. When you get up in the morning and ask yourself honestly if you’re living that purpose. If not, please do something about it. It’s never too late. If you don’t know how to, just seek out some help and some guidance, and we’ll push you in the right direction.

28:55 – So I interviewed Michael Easter, author of The Comfort Crisis on my podcast, and great book for listeners, very good. And he had this concept of you’re familiar with called the misogi. And it’s this idea, it’s this Japanese term that relates, that references sort of cleansing, and it’s evolved to mean sort of doing something very hard, where you come out the other side cleansed as a new person. And so this Misogi, there’s two rules of the misogyny. The first rule is, there has to be a 50% chance of success, and the second rule is, don’t die.

Chuck Returns To Discuss A Theme On Doing The Right Thing, Taking Initiative, and Community Support:

Chuck Wood returns for a monthly check-in so we can hit on a variety of topics. On this episode we discuss some family drama, personal accountability, and even minor points around political issues. Chuck shares his experiences with family members in trouble and the importance of personal responsibility which Scott agrees on for success in life. They discuss the challenges of parenting and the role of teachers versus parents in children’s lives. The conversation also touches on political activism, with Chuck planning to address school policies at a local school board meeting. They emphasize the need for parents to take action and not rely on others to solve problems. Towards the end we even hit on the simple kindness act of clearing a road to help stranded drivers. An important highlight around the importance of taking initiative and community support.

21:30 – So we’ll get into local Utah school politics a little bit. There was an article published in the National Review, and it pointed out that two school districts here in Utah had adopted policies from the ACLU that said that teachers should not inform parents if a child decides to transition their sex. This issue is going viral right now and everybody’s talking, but teachers are not the parents. I’m the parent. I created that human or adopted that human being, and have full responsibility for that human being.

43:15 – This all comes back to just one or two general principles, and simplified, it’s just responsibility. I mean, my brother’s in jail because he didn’t show up to a court hearing, and he wants us to bail us out?!

01:02:00 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

Just take responsibility for where you want to end up, and recognize that you have that same responsibility for your kids.

55:00 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

I think what triggered a lot of this was just that I realized that I was stressed out and unhappy. So if you’re stressed out and unhappy, there’s a reason why, right? I’m not painting this as you need to pivot your life. But maybe there’s some minor change, and you keep doing what you’re doing in a different way. The thing is, when I was working full time jobs, by the time I was considering whether or not it was worth jumping ship or trying to fix whatever was wrong, wherever I was, I’ve learned that it was just time to jump ship. The thing is, is just sit down and yeah, figure out, okay, well, what is it that I really want?

31:45 – I mean, that’s not a good way to do it, but it works. But then it’s something as simple as, Hey, make an FAQ section, right? What are frequently asked questions because you’re adding keyword content into your site that directly aligns with your brand, and, to your point, directly aligns with common customer complaints, questions, etc. You can still have that, but then, to your point, have the interactive model now available too for people who want to interact with something so they don’t want to click click and then go and read, great. Have the Chatgpt supported feature too, so you have it physically in there, but then you have the automated interaction component as well.

48:00 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

I would say, look at anything you’re doing. Look at all the wasted time. Look at something you could do more efficiently and find the right tool for it. You’d be shocked. Like one of the things we ran into an issue with recently is YouTube thumbnails are really important. Like, it’s one of the number one things that if you don’t have a good thumbnail, your CTR, your click through, rates gonna be terrible. So we actually went out and found a software. It’s an AI software called upscale any image, and it takes a terrible, low resolution image, and using AI, it scales it up and fixes the resolution. That’s a game changer. So look at things you’re doing. Look at just for image resolution, right? Just for image resolution, not for video. There is other software for video, but I’ve used a couple, and they’re not that good yet. So look at what you’re doing, and look at where you could do it better, and look where you need help, and look where you can get more efficient. You don’t have to do it the hard way. You know, work smarter, not harder. And I think there’s a lot of the right AI tools out there for that.

37:20 – This is where the story gets even better. So we were working with a small publisher. Then I get messages from people, hey, is your book sold out? I’m like, Whoa, that’s incredible. I’m now getting messages from people, your book is out of print. I’m like, what my book is out of print? You just launched it. So here’s what I find out my publisher. Things weren’t going so hot for the publisher, but they didn’t publicly share that, and apparently they went out of business on the day my book launched, and nobody could get my book, and I had to find another publisher that was willing to pick the book up, which actually ended up being a better it ended up being a better opportunity for us, because it was a much bigger publisher. But that was wild man like trying to recover from that.

55:30 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

The thing that really made me look at it is my kids. Because one of the biggest things that has been an issue now is, we seem to forget that there’s two genders on planet Earth. It’s not Baskin Robbins man. There’s not 37 different ones. And I think when I looked at the way it’s a threat to kids, is the thing that made me look at like, how am I gonna feel if I didn’t stand up for my kids? And I think that’s what it came down to is whether people like me or don’t like me. I really don’t care. But I can look my kids in the face every day and say, you know what, your dad’s trying to make this world better for you. Because he wants you to have a world like he grew up in. I think that’s what we need to be continuing to forward, it is what you’re doing, creating this world to be better for your kids. I think when we’re not looking at it that way, man, you gotta really take a hard look in the mirror.

Timestamped Show Notes:

04:40 – Very few people get that like, I love failure, like failure is my friend. In fact, I’ve failed more times at most things and most people that I know probably other than you, I think you’re a bigger failure than I am.

13:30 – Things that I learned from skydiving. One is that courage credits don’t transfer. Courage credits don’t transfer, you can’t go skydiving to abolish all of your fears. All it’s going to do is going to abolish your fear of skydiving? There’s not one thing you can do that’s going to transform everything. What you can do is begin to chip away at your own resistance to doing new things. So the current credits don’t transfer but the practice of doing new things helps overall.

19:00 – When you do something a lot, it gets easier, like there is nothing that you do a lot of that you get worse at. I mean, you’d have to try. So whatever it is that you struggle with, that you’re resistant to understand that, there is something really cool on the other side of it.

32:00 – A friend of mine is actually a rocket scientist and he says they are not that smart. But the thing that I am doing now, is I’m focused on teaching people a method of not a method, a culture of selling, that are called selling authentically. The reason it’s a culture and not a method or a tool or a trick is because it’s exactly what you and I are doing right now we’re having an authentic conversation. Like there is no script here.

45:40 – It is my mission and intention that everybody leaves a conversation with me in a better space. Whether we end up working together or not.

47:30 – Everything that we have been talking about, is about betraying your own internal stories that tell you to not do the things that will move you forward. Those stories are designed to keep you safe. When it’s time for you to step into a fire, literally, there is stories inside of you that say, don’t do it! Don’t follow these stories because there’s a bigger purpose. So I wrote a book called Jumping The Gap, Kill Your Stories and Take Action.

01:00:00 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

I can sum it up in a word serve. Gandhi said, if everybody understood the joy of service, they would never stop. Being in service is the one thing that has propelled me forward faster, with greater gratitude and joy than anything else I’ve ever done.

The feeling of getting off of a call with someone and not just bringing them value, but turning the lights back on in their eyes, and I may never see them again. But knowing I did that, there is something genetic and core to our humanity about serving others.

Timestamped Show Notes:

05:45– One of the biggest hurdles I had to get over was the sound of my own voice. So I recorded myself giving presentations while driving my truck, in front of a mirror, etc. I did 52 weeks of recording driving to work and I made sure I did it every week, for a year straight. Not for content creation and not for anybody else. Yes, there was good content there and I would make sure I posted on YouTube, even before I went into the office.

12:30 – As a coach, in both the mindset life coaching part of my business and the fitness part of my business, it doesn’t matter what side of the spectrum you’re on, you got to listen to your client first.

43:30 – I work only with the lifestyle mindset coaching side of things, I don’t coach them in fitness. I coach them on their lives. We work through the victim mentality and impostor syndrome. Soft talking through the past experiences and the story work. These things take up space in us. We don’t realize they’re taking up space in us which means we can’t bring in new positive experiences. Because this something that is still holding on to us from the past, that we haven’t learned to express or let go of or deal with. It’s blocking us from moving forward. This happened to me, the reason I am more successful now than I was four years ago, is because four years ago, I had a block. I knew I had a block.

50:00 – I am often focused on the mindset coaching and lifestyle coaching which are my passions that I do outside of the gym. You have to be ready for those conversations. I had a local business that hired me and it was a six week program where I brought them through how to structure, how to plan, and they didn’t respond well to the one the week with what I had designed. They all bottled up got really closed off. It was a big time tough room. I felt it and you could feel that in the owner too. So I pivoted and I flipped the script.

01:17:30 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

That’s probably why I came out so happy today. It’s one of the things why I shut my mind off for an hour. I focused on whether I was not flat footed or was on my toes or rotating enough. Or like how I was striking or if I was connected to every movement I did. I was listening and learning and taking criticism. It was awesome.

That’s pretty cool and more people need to experience that. That feeling to just be centered and focused that hard on anything could be lifechanging, and it doesn’t have to be a athletic endeavor. It could be art, it could be music, or it could be the freeing experience like podcasting.

Dr. Anthony Chaffee is an American medical doctor and Neurosurgical resident who, over a span of 25+ years, has researched the optimal nutrition for human performance and health.

Timestamped Show Notes:

14:30 – I’ve seen the Carnivore Lifestyle help a lot of people. I think it’s important to get that message out to as many people as possible. You will get people saying whatever the hell they want to say, in a very negative fashion, but it’s a vast minority of people. The vast majority of people tell me about how much better they are, how many illnesses they’ve fixed. They tell me how their dad’s out of a nursing home and is able to live on his own again, and that he’s off all his medications. Or how someone underweight has put on weight after living very frail and skinny and now he’s putting on muscle again. Just like other people are losing excess weight, they’re feeling much better, and their diabetes is gone, their acid reflux is gone. These diseases that were just crippling people and crippling society, they just go away in a realist and short period of time.

17:50 – Aspartame is on the carcinogen list for years now. I heard that when I was a kid in the 1980’s. It was mentioned casually, like, hey that might cause cancer, or might be involved in it, or something like that. So this has been bouncing around forever, but the processed food companies have kept it off that list by paying people to keep it off the list. They’ve admitted and said themselves, that 75% of their funding comes with strings attached. They openly said that a couple of years ago, and we all knew it. The FDA really showed how much of a shill they are for the big processed foods and drug companies.

33:00 – The most rigorously studied died on Earth is the ketogenic diet. What is it? Well, that could be anything because it just means dropping carbs. That’s not actually what happens in practice, because it’s very difficult to do a plant based ketogenic diet because you get rid of carbs, you have to replace it with fat and protein. Plants are a really bad source of both of those. So it’s very difficult to do that, you have to take a ton of supplements, and you are probably getting a lot of seed oils and are drinking canola oil every day.

41:30 – Higher ketones can seem to suppress both seizures and migraines. Then different sort of inflammatory factors can be triggers, or just plant toxins can be triggers for both seizures and migraines. We have 100 years of evidence and experimental data and interventional data for both migraines and epilepsy with a ketogenic diet as the treatment(s).

49:25 – This lifestyle works for mental clarity, which just cleans right up, and brain fog goes away. That’s a very common thing that people report when they go onto ketogenic diets in general and especially a Carnivore Diet in particular. That brain fog just goes away and they can actually think clearer with higher energy. They realize they have very consistent energy throughout the day, especially when they get rid of caffeine. You don’t have the ups and downs from the caffeine as well. They find that they have are not spiking up, but you’re also not dropping down. You’re just here, level, and consistent. That really helps me when I’m on call at the medical center and I’m just busy all night long but with consistent energy and alertness.

01:10:00 – When nothing was working, and medications were not working, they actually came across Chris Palmer. So he was able to put his bipolar in remission. He’s on a nearly pure Carnivore Diet, because again, ketogenic diets are meat based, high fat meat based food diets, with a side salad if you want to, I don’t know why you would though.

01:24:00 – A natural plant is tobacco, which is a poisonous plant, which is a nightshade. That falls into the same plant families as potatoes, tomatoes, eggplants, and peppers.

03:45 – Brad has always been like a big brother to me. He has been in my wedding. He’s just been a mentor and someone that I’ve always looked up to. Just in his character, his discipline, and the way that he carries himself in all facets of his life. Including you, we’re products of personal development. It’s something that I eat, sleep, breathe, and my life is a direct reflection of the time and attention and resources that I’ve invested into my mindset.

17:15 – We have an idea, we have a mental model, of what we aspire to be. But, you know, I think the beauty part is the process. It’s the learning, it’s the getting better.

21:55 – There are little incantations, little things that I’ve learned over the process of the last three years of mentorship with him. That has really taken me to another level. I couldn’t say that prior to working with Paul Martinelli.

30:20 – It’s controlled, you know you get better two different ways. You could just go full throttle, with with no responsibility, or you can allow the law of process to take effect and you can get a little bit better and feel a little more comfortable over time. Do it in a healthy way. I think one way is, and I’m living proof of that, is rushing things, which is more prone to bad things happening.

40:30 – The thing is, the human programming or as human beings, we get addicted to emotions, to the way that we are supposed to feel. If you don’t think you’re addicted, give me this smartphone for a week. Get your hand off of that device, take that away for a month and see how you feel.

50:00 – Let’s talk about that 12-year-old little boy inside. That’s really the voice that holds me back, it’s that inner child? I was obedient. I set out on my journey, I went to massage school, and then I’m riding a bicycle. I road eight and a half miles, every single day from Allentown to Hellertown. To go help build my family business. We grew that business 1,000% in four and a half years, even through a worldwide pandemic. I hold a citation from the US House of Representatives and the US House of Senate, I became the most influential man in Lehigh Valley Style.

01:15:45 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

What I realized after I came home is that the bicycle that I road is a metaphor for a successful, meaningful, and purposeful life. What I mean is, the first thing you have is the handlebars. Those are decisions, our decisions create our destiny, one degree to the left or to the right of my handlebars, I’m ending up in a completely different destination. So you got to make good decisions.

The next is the frame of the bicycle. That’s my mental and physical well-being, my mental and physical health. One crack on my bike frame, I’m on the side of the road watching everybody else go through life. So you’ve got to take care of your mental and physical health.

The next is your pedals. Those are our desires. The stronger my vibrational frequency of my desires, the more power I’m going to put to my pedals and the further I’m going to go in life. So what do you want?

The next is the chain. Those are my daily actions. Those have to be in alignment with my desires. It’s like me saying I want to lose weight and be financially free. If my daily actions are not in alignment, I’m not going anywhere.

Next is the gears. Successful people know when to switch gears at the appropriate time. The gear that I’m in now is in the gear that I’m in with my clients or with my family, you got to know when to switch gears. You have to have the foresight to see what’s coming down the road of life so you can get in the appropriate gear and maximize your efforts.

The next is the wheel. That’s my support system. At any given time, during that 500 mile ride, all 230 pounds of me was on one spoke. In life, you’re going to have to rely on a handful of people. So make sure you have a good strong support system around you.

The next is the tires. The front ones filled with inspiration, the back ones filled with motivation. Now on that ride, I had to check and fill my tires daily. Because if you ever tried to ride a bike on flat tires, it makes it really hard to do. So you got to find something that inspires and motivates you on a daily basis.

The next is a seat, you are going to have to support yourself. There may come a time where you’re the only person that believes in your dream, you’re gonna have to support yourself, how are you doing that? How are you talking to yourself? Nobody’s going to believe in your dreams like you believe in your dreams, You have to support yourself.

Lastly, my favorite is the brakes. Everything in the universe is subject to the law of rhythm. Sun goes up, sun comes down, tide goes out, tide comes in. Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall, everything is subject to the law of rhythm. Sometimes you’re grinding up a hill. Sometimes you have got momentum and you’re coasting down on those downhills. Don’t forget to use your brakes, slow down, take in the views and enjoy the ride. We get so fixated on getting to the destination that we completely miss the entire journey. Life is so beautiful at eight miles an hour. So keep pedaling.

I am not Aerodynamic with Scott King #NSNG

Scott Mulvaney — Tue, 30 Apr 2024 16:00:00 +0000

300lbs Released, Not Aerodynamic, Yet, but a Hell of a Redesign:

My name is Scott King 46 years old. Huge all my life. In 2006 I had gastric bypass. Day of surgery I was 552lbs. Lost weight but as these surgeries seem to go I gained all my weight back. I tried to have gastric again and was denied. I heard Vinnie Tortorich on the Adam Carolla and Dr. Drew show and as a last ditch effort I tried NSNG. I have lost 300lbs from it. Never been healthier. I have set my unicorn of all goals and that’s the Ironman Texas in 2025. I hope this journey inspires the hopeless to take a change and encourage others.

Quote: Less of me with NSNG

Today’s Top 3 Takeaways:

Kitchen vs the gym.
Healthy lifestyle choices vs surgical band-aids.
NSNG Lifestyle vs a crash diet.

Timestamped Show Notes:

04:40 – I’ve always been a strong swimmer. But as I got into triathlon training, I realized I was actually a strong floater, and I wasn’t the strongest swimmer. That is, I was very buoyant and so I mistakenly thought that meant I was a good swimmer. That was a whole entire different beast and my first try was a pool swim, a short one, then you go into open water swim. That’s a whole different animal too now that you got currents to deal with, even in a small body of water. It’ll expose every flaw or weakness you have in any technique.

17:30 – I’m going to build up to that Ironman level of training. But with that comes incredible expenses. entry fees, all of that stuff. I mean, just simple stuff like hydration, nutrition, and that sort of thing. Buying shoes, because I’m a big guy, I wear out shoes, bicycle stuff, everything has a huge expense. Let’s not forget I have three daughters. I’ve told Vinnie before I live in a trickle down economic system in my house, nothing trickles down to Dad, I’m the afterthought.

24:15 – I had gastric bypass back in 2006 and I lost a good chunk of weight. Like a lot of people though, I started putting the weight back on. Roughly, around 2016-17, I was pretty much back exactly to where I was when I had gastric bypass beforehand. So I’ve tried to have gastric bypass again, because oddly enough, and I say this in quotations if you can get both or whatever. It was the only thing that ever worked for me. Which is kind of ironic because I’m trying to have it again because it didn’t work for me.

26:00 – So I downloaded a PDF, just saying screw it, I gotta check this No Sugar No Grains out. It was a simple list of don’t do this, don’t do that. I’m married, so I get this list, I’m pretty good at it, but I still didn’t do anything about it. But one day, we were out front in the front yard. At the time, my two and a half year old daughter ran out to the street. I’ll stop right now, nothing bad happened, because it’s a very quiet street, but she was already in the road before I can even get out of the chair to get to help her. Once I was out of the chair, I couldn’t catch up with her. I was that horribly out of shape and it killed me. Knowing that I could not perform the most basic function of protecting my child, because my health was that poor. So I just told myself, I gotta give this NSNG a try.

27:20 – I thought in, my head, that I was 450 pounds. After I started to lose weight. I started cleaning out my closet one day, and I realized I was wearing the exact same size clothing I was when I had my gastric bypass surgery now as a size 62 pant and in roughly a 7x shirt!

38:20 – I’ve learned how my personality works, I need to have a goal. When I have a goal, I am really dedicated to my training, my eating, and everything like that. So that’s when I announced it. So I paint myself into a corner and not like, do everything I can not to look like an idiot, if I just kept it to myself, or finally put myself down. I am looking to gain support down the road from companies. I’m not trying to get any of the glory out of this whatsoever, I can care less about that. But I know what it’s like man to be so hopeless. I don’t feel like anyone else has been more hopeless than what I felt, so I want to use this platform and this journey, going into this Ironman dream. All to spread the awareness of an event and our NSNG Lifestyle to just let other people know that you can too. I’m nobody special.

55:00 – We were taking my mother to the airport and the reason why she would get upset upon leaving was because she didn’t think she was gonna see me alive again. That’s a punch to the heart and how I felt, my health was so poor that I couldn’t protect my kid. My selfish decisions were so bad with my health. My selfish decisions with eating were also destroying my parents inside. They just didn’t couldn’t tell me, they didn’t know how to tell me. So just that lifestyle is just really hurting so many people I loved. It’s hard to tell, but it’s hard for them to tell me, but I found that to be a really, really, really powerful thing when she finally told me that.

01:25:10 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

I would just like to let people know that you’re better and you’re stronger than you think you are. You just need to find that why.

Trying Out Utah Politics with Chuck Wood

Scott Mulvaney — Wed, 17 Apr 2024 12:00:00 +0000

Reflecting On The Amsterdam Developers Conference and Utah Politics:

Chuck is also the author of “The MaxCoders Guide to Finding Your Dream Developer Job.” The podcasts he produces reach more than 80,000 developers every week.

https://youtu.be/bXU7t65IddQ

Timestamped Show Notes:

8:55 – I was already the vice chair of the county party. I took a leave of absence for three weeks and ran for office and then I didn’t win. So now I’m back doing my prior role, so I’ve always kind of been in the political space. I’ve got people talking to me now about running for office next year. I don’t know if I have another campaign in me.

16:40 – Now, one thing that our politicians in Utah do, though, is they want to show people they’re doing stuff. So the last two or three days of the legislative session, they suspend the rules, and they’ll pass like two or 300 bills in two or three days, which is nuts, because it’s like, look, you haven’t read them.

18:30 – I don’t want to discount either the people who are just out there trying to live their life. I mean, if you’re running a business, if you’re out there, you’re contributing to the world in a way that you’re good at, and you get paid for. I mean, you’re making a difference, too.

28:25 – Back to that idea of balance again. I don’t I hate the word balanced, because people think of it as okay, I’ve got six things I’m trying to do. So I’m trying to keep the thing centered. I don’t think that’s realistic. But recognize what you’re sacrificing over here to make progress over here. So that you don’t ruin this column to gain in this column.

48:00 – I just finished phase one. Honestly, 30 days of phase one was harder than 75 days of 75 Hard. I’m doing phase two right after Thanksgiving. Because you have to wait 30 days, between phases. If you fail during those 30 days, there’s no penalty, right? So are you going to do it just because? It’s funny because some of the stuff like I’m not working out twice a day anymore, I just follow my regimen. I have a program that gives me workouts for my triathlon next year. I’m gonna do a half Ironman, that’s my goal next year. So if there’s one workout in the day, that’s all I’m doing, right? But the deal is, is if you slack off some are you disciplined enough when it matters to kick it back in? So 30 days is enough time to really get out of the habit if you’re not going to stick to it.

52:00 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

Well, it’s interesting, because I was talking to somebody earlier today, and they pointed out that the market is tough, right? The dev market has just been for the people that are out there. You know, some of them have kind of been coasting, you know, got pretty comfortable. Then all of a sudden, the market is not as great you see stuff start to soften up. You see a bunch of people getting laid off. I mean, when we’re talking about this level of personal excellence and stuff like that, it, it really comes down to if you’re doing the work consistently, to improve, and are you doing the right things consistently. For developers, it’s building your skills, building your network, and building your personal brand.

Timestamped Show Notes:

05:20 – I really wish I had been introduced to this 20 years ago as it would have saved me a lot of suffering. I suffer from a condition called tinnitus and it is a ringing in the ear. I maintain that condition and it was caused by eight years in the US Army,

12:00 – One of the things I try to get across the people every time I talked to them is that they need to guard their hearing. Some of the concussive sounds that I have heard in the Army with no hearing protection on the market would have helped or would have protected it to that degree. Did you know that I get letters every single week from dentists who are working on teeth and they were getting negative impacts from how the drills are resonating.

23:10 – I love most music, we all love to listen to whatever type of music it is we listen to. That is really the whole reason that we did Melody Clouds and put it together the way that we did. Once I was able to figure out, okay, this is how binaural beats work. Let’s find out what other problems that binaural beats will help solve.

32:30 – The way that we’ve done it is I put all the binaural beats in a solfeggio and the guided meditations in one section. People who like binaural beats, they like the guided meditations and solfeggio has worked for them as well. They’re familiar with it, and they know how that works. Now, the one thing I did was, add images, all of the images in Melody Clouds are award winning art and award winning photography.

45:15 – That is our philosophy as well, because in the next month or two, we will have 8000 episodes of old time radio. So this is how that ties in. Instead of you sitting in front of a TV and watching a story, those radio programs, this required imagination, this will require you to think and visualize it yourself. So rather than being overwhelmed by all the visual and the sounds from a VR headset, which is becoming a problem, and it’s the opposite of relaxation for people.

01:00:05 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

When someone sincerely asks me for help, I try very hard to be present for that and to do what I can to further someone else’s goals. I do that because of the negativity that sometimes surrounds projects that I wanted, the people that are closest to us oftentimes are the ones that are the are naysayers. Don’t do this because other people are doing it. I look back at some very good advice that I was given. Every restaurant in the United States has a hamburger on the menu. That doesn’t stop McDonald’s, Burger King, In N Out, and Five Guys, along with other hamburger only restaurants. The bottom line, what I would say to people, is you don’t hear no, don’t ever hear no, hear not now, you’re not yet ready. But don’t hear no. If you want to do something, do it, do that thing, and do it well. Do it in the best way you possibly can. That’s what we really try to do with Melody Clouds. We stand on that.

A Healthy Mindset with WeShape

Scott Mulvaney — Sat, 23 Mar 2024 17:30:00 +0000

On Today’s Episode With Tyler of WeShape, He Reminds Us Of The Power Of A Healthy Mindset, Mindfulness, Self-Worth, And More:

Co-Founders, Katie and Tyler Bramlett started WeShape with the intention of advocating for women to stop focusing on the number on the scale and instead put their energy and efforts towards a more meaningful intention such as movement, rest, and a deeper connection with self. Their entire company and product is rooted in intention, movement, community, and beliefs. They have a passion for bringing awareness to the toxic expectations placed on women in the fitness industry, as well as the often overshadowed, yet pivotal roles women play in business and entrepreneurship.

Quote: “A Disciplined Mind Leads To Happiness, And An Undisciplined Mind Leads To Suffering ~ Dalai Lama

Today’s Top 3 Takeaways:

Mindfulness Intention
Self-Worth
Feel Good Challenges every 6 weeks.

Timestamped Show Notes:

05:15 – How do we give them the tools to go from unconsciously working out, like mindlessly exercising, it’s the hammering away on the treadmill, while you’re watching an episode of Oprah. Hitting the machines and not really dropping into your body or really experiencing movement. How do you actually learn how to mindfully move your body from the intention of wanting to care for your body, not from the intention of wanting to change the way you look? So you can get external validation and feel good about yourself? Right. So that’s kind of how we got to here!

10:40 – I also think that if you surround yourself with people who are all stuck in the same toxic mindset, then you end up complaining and circulating in that mindset. It’s interesting to me, one of the things that we discovered early on about community was, it is one of the greatest predictors to overall longevity. In fact, I think it was Wendy Suzuki is a neuroscientist that said that it was the number one predictor of longevity is the amount of positive connections you have with other people.

14:30 – I feel like this is something I’ve become really aware of. It’s funny because Katie was the one who came up with this intention as the business was, how do we change people? How do we bring awareness to this toxic weight loss culture we’re stuck in, which is like, do this crash diet, do this workout, do this whatever, and you’ll lose weight and you’ll feel better about yourself. We just said it like a little bit ago, you’ll lose weight, but you won’t feel better about yourself.

23:30 – The goal is just to get people rallied up and consistent. We go over these topics of intention, movement, beliefs, community with them and really dive deep into them. It really changes a lot of people’s lives. What’s really interesting to me about these challenges, is that when people come together in a community, and one person is willing to raise their hand and share, like, Hey, I’m really struggling with this.

34:15 – I think people struggle with that. But again, I think this comes down to that self-worth and I think where we can really differentiate ourselves as a brand is that WeShape isn’t focused on body transformation, losing weight, and all this different stuff. We’re trying to bring to someone’s attention that hey, look at all the magazines and all the internet stuff everything is basically making you feel shitty about yourself. We’re shaping a new way, we’re trying to change the way we’re approaching us. All that stuff out there is making you feel shitty so that you buy their stuff.

40:45 – The mindset work, the psychological work, that is something that we personally have to take accountability for. You have to have a personal accountability and investment yourself.

58:00 – I want them to stop getting stuck in these toxic weight loss cycles. Stop getting stuck in these exercise programs and diets and all this crap and start learning how to appreciate themselves. Teach them to connect with themselves and show up with better intentions and lean into a community who can support them through that.

59:20 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

I think what I want to stand for is just showing people that it starts with their opinion of themselves. What you believe about yourself, is what you will do with your life. If you believe that you’re worthless, and you know you’re a failure, and you can’t do all of these things, then there you go. That’s the life that you’re gonna end up creating for yourself. You can believe whatever you want. So you can believe and see all of these positive things about yourself. You can keep training that belief and holding that belief as truth and fortifying that belief through your actions to build it into truth. So that will become your life. It’s just your choice what you want to believe.

Timestamped Show Notes:

07:50 – Mail servers on their own are pretty stupid. It’s the stuff that you build on top of it that matters. So Google built this application layer on top of it, that sorts it all out and allows for that custom domain email universal platform for businesses. They have two advantages. One is that they’ve been doing this for a really, really long time. So they they’ve gotten pretty good just on their own building algorithms to say for example, hey that looks like spam! The second thing is now we’re getting into the age where you have Machine Learning aka AI aka Artificial Intelligence. What it is, is they are taking this giant data model, and you train it against the systems that build basically mathematical formulas that replicate the result you want.

09:10 – This is all in software. So effectively, what you do is you set up your system and then you feed it. You say, here’s an email, it’s spam. Here’s another email, it’s spam. Here’s an email, it’s not spam. You send millions and billions of emails through to the end, what happens is when you send an email that you don’t know, it can come back and it can say this is 90% chance, it’s spam. So then you just have to decide how sensitive you want to be. The more you train it, the better it gets.

20:20 – The issue that I had was this CRM, it did a bunch of stuff, I could go I could cancel like four or five services, because they all could now get consolidated. So I was super excited. I start using it, and then it seemed okay, but the email deliverability was in the toilet. So they’re like, hey, look, you know, we have this tech expert that will go in and fix it for you. So I paid the extra to have the guy come in and fix it for me. So he comes in and fixes it and the deliverability gets better. It’s not where it was using the other system. But it wasn’t so bad that I just threw up my hands in disgust and walked away.

30:30 – So I went back to Schedule Once, and you know that they’re cheap. So it’s not a big deal. But they’ll let you set up booking pages that all go to different calendars. That’s the kicker, and I have to set up like 10 of them for all the podcasts and everything else. Then I can use the Zoho calendar thing, because it’s already built into everything else, just for the stuff that involves just me.

42:15 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

The thing that I want to point out is that what your brand is, and that’s the embodiment of truth and backing up your words. In a lot of cases, it is the way you present yourself, part of your brand is I tried to work with them. They were hard to work with, so if I came through, and I said hey this is Company X, and I named them outright, and said, and their their customer service has been terrible. But they actually have built their brand on being good salespeople and brand people. They talk about this on their podcast, which they have, and how their customer service is part of your brand. It really just does not come across well, especially that fact that I’ve had so many issues with them.

Timestamped Show Notes:

07:45 – Many of us do not understand physics, we as a population have not been taught about it. So that’s what we’re gonna do. We’re gonna just give everyone something that they can chew on that’s palatable, and really simplify this topic of invisible waveforms, known as EMF.

10:45 – That’s a scalar wave framework for the entire planet, our resonance, our electromagnetic field through piezo, electric thermal dynamics, our energy in our body, it doesn’t just shoot off my right shoulder to the right in a straight line. Though it’s six foot, they got the gig got us right on that one. And then, but it’s a resonance that goes all around us. That’s a scalar wave. All non-native manmade electromagnetic fields or frequencies are one directional waveforms, or they don’t work, right.

16:20 – That’s what EMF stressors do for our body battery. So at the cellular level, it’s breaking down your electromagnetic resonance, and then dehydrates us too because it’s 2.45 billion waves per second. It’s the level of destructuring water. That’s a lot of bombardment! That’ll chip anyone away over time. I am dumbfounded to see that these professionals, like the NFL or MBA, their arenas, they’re getting bought out and sold and getting strapped with 5g this, 5g that. They’re zapping these athletes and are making crappy decisions. When these guys are machines, they never make mistakes, and then they’re getting hurt due to these impacts.

24:00 – Once I saw the athletes breaking down, I wrote a book on Athleticism. The first section talks about awareness and all of the pillars for health. That’s where I kind of dove into this EMF space in a in a big way. About a decade ago, I started looking into it and I found another person’s product. They were using crystals with copper and it tested well at first. So I started learning about that whole concept of looking to the earth because those crystals add a resonance. I had a doctor approach me because I started testing homes in Newport Beach and surrounding areas and got a reputation for clearing houses. He basically said, hey, what are you using? I’m like, I’m using this product. I’m like, Well, what are you using? He said, I’m using these, these crystals, these rocks, these EMF Rocks.

31:15 – We call them brainwave states, when you’re in a delta theta brainwave state, you’re sleeping. Those are your brainwave states, low and slow. It’s a longer slower wavelength state, we’ve tested this, it’s just common fact. So this is the woo-woo part coming in, factual, and we tested this as one or below one to eight hertz or waves per second. That’s when you’re in a delta theta brainwave state, when our athletes are in the flow, you’re in the zone. You’re in flow state when your eight to twelve or thirteen hertz, or waves per second. That’s the speed of your brainwave state. Now, the cell phones will ping at 2.45 billion waves per second of a one directional wave form, which isn’t good, when you’re supposed to be sleeping at one to eight. So what happens is our brain goes into a twilight sleep, so we don’t ever get into that deep restorative sleep.

41:20 – The mini bag of EMF Rocks option is for the on-the-go protection. So that’s for hotels, for cycling, for a pocket, purse or backpack. When you’re cycling, if the phone is on someone, they can maybe put it in the Faraday bag, then it wouldn’t have radiation on them directly. But they could have a mini bag of EMF Rocks in their jersey pocket too. Then it’s going to create that coherence between any waveforms that are kicking off.

51:10 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

Stop living in fear everyone, please get back to getting connected to the resonance of the earth. Because getting grounded by nature is the single most important pillar for health. It’s free. There’s not a virus flying around to kill anyone. It’s our adaptive system. So stop worrying about being sick or anyone else getting sick. Take care of yourself by getting connected and grounded by nature, and feeding your body with chemical free food and hydration. It’s that simple.

Timestamped Show Notes:

08:50 – I have three number one rules of communication, and they’re all tied for number one. That’s why they’re all number one. One of them is, Everything Communicates and that’s one of the things that communicates. I’ll tell you kind of the converse of the story…

19:00 – Well, so we need to be strategic absolutely about communication, because, you know, how many times have you been there whether you’re in communications or not. You’re at work and somebody comes to you and says, oh, you know, we need to send out an email about XYZ. People’s minds, especially when it goes to communication, a lot of times just go to the tactic, we need an email, we need a meeting, we need a town hall, we need a video.

23:25 – Tell them a story! That’s my third number one rule of communication, is to tell them a story. Why is that? Go back to caveman drawings. That’s just the natural way for humans to communicate and to relate to one another and to move one another, to action. Frankly, it’s not that tough, because there’s a very simple structure.

29:20 – Regarding the e-Learning we’ve got, it’s all about the video success. So you got the visual and the audio, but then we also have little exercises that reinforce a lot of the points that we talked about in the videos. Then we also added in each of the courses, we have these downloadable tools and templates that you can take and keep. If you want you want to go old school, you print it out and you stick it up next to your desk and you can consult it regularly. One of the things I’ve got is on the corporate narrative course in there, but it is the storytelling template that I that I had just talked about earlier.

49:00 – Being explicit and prescriptive about what we need people to do is important. So we fall short of that all the time in our workplace communication. So we’ve done the hard part, we’ve won people over, but it’s like, well, what do I do? And too often nobody has the answer for that.

52:20 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

When we communicate better we can make work life, and life in general, better for all of us, for ourselves, and for others. That’s what I’m all about doing, is about making a difference with good and improved communication in the workplace and in people’s lives in general.

Timestamped Show Notes:

08:30 – When it comes to our Lehigh Valley, PA region, there’s not enough personal and professional development here locally, like you said, I’ve traveled everywhere, California, Florida, Texas, we know social groups and masterminds.

10:20 – I’ll tell you , it always surprised me when I speak at more local events and not the big stages. Like you said, traveling all over the country, no matter where you’re doing it, no matter if it’s New York City, or if it’s going to be here in the Lehigh Valley, wherever it is. So many people are hungry for it. I believe that everybody knows the truth deep inside, but either busy has beat them, or life has beat them down, or they’re on autopilot doing things. But when we hear the truth, we all stop for a second, we all pause.

22:00 – It changes the intent and how you see things, I promise you, and you’re talking to a guy who is a convicted felon, I did four years in the Feds, a high school dropout, I was a drug addict on every single level. I’ve done every single drug known to man, I had zero discipline, I had a mindset where I did whatever the fuck I wanted. I didn’t care who I hurt, I didn’t care what I did. There was zero discipline. Now, in this evolution, for people to understand where real personal growth comes from, with your family, with your relationships, with your finances, with your health, with everything… it’s discipline!

29:15 – Brother when I came in here, I put my phone over on the table. You know what I mean? It’s because it’s that thing, that mobile tech, you got to be disciplined to not look at it. Discipline is everything. Like I can’t say it enough and I can’t talk about it enough, DISCIPLINE.

39:25 – What you mentioned too, was intentional evaluation process. As we get older, many people stop evaluating themselves. I mean, you work in a job, you’re gonna have an annual review. But those numbers are already circled. How about we get to circle our own numbers and be intentional. So once a month I call it get my life together Saturday. I sit down with a cup of coffee, a cigar, and maybe really nice drink. Then I put down the different roles that I play as a versus overall as me, Andre, but also as a husband, as a father, I have four kids, believe me, I’ll have four different ratings. Okay, as a leader, and you could go whatever role that you value, put it down on a scale of one to ten. My rating is on a scale of one to ten.

45:00 – So I think one of the challenges of being a coach is we try to coach at home, and they don’t need a coach, like I experienced this with my daughter, Wes knows my kids. This is what I have on my phone at 9:15, and it says discipline equals freedom. Make a list for tomorrow goes off every night at nine o’clock. So like, this is where discipline comes into play. The gift in the curse with what we do, we coach people, we give people direction, we tell them what they need. Then we go home…

53:30 – DALE: Yeah, they need to be present, just like we were talking about be present where you are present. Like I to have quite a few friends who just had the most amazing dads. Like there’s nothing more important to them than their family and their kids. Not just that they’re proactively raising their children and teaching them. Here’s what it means to be an entrepreneur at 10, 11, 12. If you do this, I’ll give you a reward. So they understand reward systems, they understand then once they start doing those things, they get a reward, but how good they feel on the other side is a huge reward in itself too. So they’re just teaching them all these different things in life that I learned, but I didn’t necessarily learn from one person.

59:00 – One in 400 trillion or it’s 400 trillion to one. Each of us, you yourself are that one in 400 trillion chance to come into existence. When I heard that statistic, I immediately was woken up, just think about that. Just the thought of that is happening, why do you exist on this earth, why are you walking around. Each of us are a 400 trillion to one chance of creation. That’s it. When you think about that, it’s like each of us won the lottery of life. So you know how special you are right now?!

01:07:00 – I’m a man of faith, I don’t hide that. I think it’s very important, not so much being religious, but I’m spiritual. I heard the voice of God and he said, Wes, I’m all the father that you’ll ever need. I’m all the father that you’ll ever need, bro. When you put expectations on human beings, they will let you down a lot. So he said, I’m all the man that you’ll ever need. Just FYI, we’re setting a fucking date for this Men Of Mindset night again bros. I’m coming back!

01:13:00 – I mean, I think that’s part of growth, though. The theme of tonight was Men and Mindset, right? Mindset is just the key word. This event them just popped in my head, so I was just like, I’m just gonna stick it on the calendar invite and I’m still gonna stick by it. I’m feeling it.

01:27:00 – The Final, Final, Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

In the immortal words of the man who stole my fucking jacket from Skateway, DISCIPLINE. ~ Brad Modrich

Red Pill Revolution and Medical Freedom with John Gusty

Scott Mulvaney — Sat, 23 Dec 2023 18:00:00 +0000

Take The Red Pill, Non-Consensual Authority, Freedom Of Medical Choice, And More:

After over 30 years in the entertainment industry working “behind the curtain” for some of music’s biggest names, John turned his attention to health and wellness in an effort to help his wife heal from what was originally diagnosed as Multiple Sclerosis. He soon realized that the same deceit and profit motive that plagued the entertainment media was even worse inside the Medical Industrial Complex. As a devout Agorist and champion of individuality, he now devotes his time to producing content that celebrates the spirit of sovereignty in all aspects of life.

Quote: “A lie is a lie, even if everyone believes it. The truth is the truth, even if nobody believes it.” – David Stevens

Timestamped Show Notes:

07:05 – Independent companies are becoming more and more rare. As independent companies get successful, they almost inevitably always get bought up. Once they’re bought up, they’re absorbed into that corrupt world. Ambassadors moroseness and then they’re just a name and a logo that has to align with whatever the mother corpse narratives and marketing initiatives might be and so where is your individuality? Professional and personal individuality is definitely the enemy of the state. By the state, I mean the corporate state, the corporate state is government, the corporate state is medicine, the corporate state is law, the corporate state is everything that we call the system, schools, everything, and yes even our food.

10:45 – The key word there is look at the definition of non-consensual, actually hell, to be fair, even if it is consensual, I have an ethical issue with a lot of stuff like that. I’d rather work together with somebody, not control that right, let’s instead educate each other, let’s help each other through that, that next step of life. Let’s do the research to get to the point of shared education. I’m not going to just control somebody. So even if somebody gave me consent, I still feel weird about that.

21:20 – It’s about their model, they have three tools in their tool belt. They’re going to drug you, they’re going to burn you through radiation, or they’re going to cut you through surgery. It’s either drug, cut, or burn. That’s the only tools the doctors have got. They’re not taught, preventative anything. They’re not taught nutrition. They’re not taught exercise. They’re not taught healthy light. They’re not taught about impacts of healthy water, salt aka electrolytes, etc.

22:30 – In a quest to find out answers about my wife, in a nutshell, it took about six months of digging to realize that the that entire health industry is just BS. I’m not saying that there are not good, well-meaning, sincere people that work in that industry. But the industry as a whole is deceptive and is profit driven. It is not looking out for the best interest of a patient in any way shape or form.

32:00 – Name another life form that creates artificially made chemical concoctions to deal with their health, wellness, illness, and problems. We’re supposed to be the superior species of the planet, with our larger brains, etc.

40:00 – The one thing that I think most people will relate to is the proof that Glyphosate doesn’t break down, it never breaks down. Animals eat the plants, then we eat the animal. It’s now in the ground, plants will bring it uproot, then something to consume that plant. I mean, it just keeps going.

50:45 – You learn through conversation, we’re now not encouraged to have conversations anymore, and especially not healthy debates. There’s now a one sided, weird, social peer pressure system to not disagree with anybody, or not rock the boat, or not ask the wrong question, or not speak up, or speak your mind. Because you’re going to be labeled as some social posturing term, that’s bad, or whatever.

01:01:50 – They are psychopaths. They are eugenics obsessed, warmongering, serial killer psychopaths. So why is anybody listening to them anymore? Quite honestly, it’s because they’ve run the dice, what less and less people know, is good for business.

01:18:00 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

It’s okay to ask questions. It’s okay to be skeptical and it’s okay to say no, embrace the ability to say no instead. It sounds so simple, but saying no is really hard for people, especially these days. A lot of people are socially shamed into the accent, there’s this weird kind of peer pressure thing going on where people are afraid. They know that a lot of people know that they don’t want to do these things, or think these things, or say these things, or think a certain way, but they’re just afraid to be individuals. If nothing else, if when I’m gone, and you’re standing at my headstone, which is going to be a big middle finger.

Maybe someone will go out there, at least that guy did everything he could do, to let everyone around him know. It’s okay to talk, it’s okay to have opinions, it’s okay to ask questions, and it’s absolutely okay to say no. No human has the right to declare nonconsensual authority, authority over another human. If somebody is claiming authority over you, I would question that relationship. I’d want to see the paperwork behind it and how that other person thinks that they have this authority, and don’t be afraid to say no. Most importantly, you can do all of that with a smile on your face and love in your heart and it does. Nobody has to act like a Karen.

Timestamped Show Notes:

05:20 – The funny thing is, when they came in the house that day, my wife and I, we still joke about it to this day… You have to find a way to look at it, that’s exactly what the first couple of years of this was like. It was hard, but you kind of you relax with it. We joked around because neither one of us knew what was going on. I looked at it, I thought, was she cheating on me with somebody? Is she in the mafia, something that I don’t know about? Is she living a double life? All these weird thoughts. Then she’s looking at me going, are you looking at weird stuff on the internet? I mean, just all these thoughts, because you have no idea nowadays, and then, why are these people in our house?!

10:45 – We had to end up selling our home, we had to end up dealing with all kinds of different issues that weren’t documented. So I’m doing the best I can based on what I believe they wanted. Well, there were other family members who disagreed. So that became a big point of of problem.

20:00 – The number one thing is, anybody involved, and I mean anybody, step relatives, uncles, aunts, brothers cousins, friends down the street, they should all be involved in all the decisions for clear communication. Either in writing, in a group meeting, etc, so that there’s witnesses that can say, yeah, I saw that all 10 of us agreed with what were doing. I mean, other than what you said, the wills and signed agreements and all that stuff. The other thing too, is just don’t pay yourself to take care of your your relatives. I mean, there’s a lot of different philosophies on that.

31:50 – We had to have two different attorneys. You can’t have one attorney represent you. So you have to have two separate attorneys. It just became this odyssey, I felt like every day I was getting up and having an out of body experience because it was so not my life of crime. Up to this point, I only had some speeding tickets. I had an open container when I was like 19 years old in college. That was it. So here, I was caught in this thing. Thank God she, I mean, she’s just an angel. To this day, she’s it, she has incredible friends. She’s an incredible person. Thank God because if she wasn’t, she would have left me in a heartbeat.

40:50 – I think it was smart move. I don’t have a legal background. I’m not here to say whether you are guilty or innocent. I love the fact that you’re honest. You say, we definitely screwed up, and we definitely didn’t do some things that were within the legal process, that’s why we got nailed. Then you stepped up and you owned it because you want to protect your family and not get drug through a massive trial of hell.

50:00 – Assisted living doesn’t stay easy, even when we put them both in assisted living. It just made a lot of our challenges even worse, because you still have to get them to doctors, you still have to make sure their fed, they have clothes. I mean, people think well, we just put them away. You got to pay for it. You got to be involved in all of it or find somebody or pay somebody to be involved in it.

54:20 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

If I narrowed it down to three key points… Number one would be gratitude. It’s important to have that, no matter what’s going on in your life, find the good things to focus on the good things. If you focus on the negative and the bad, that’s what grows. I mean, we hear that all the time on every book and self-development podcast. It’s probably cliche, but here’s the reality. It probably saved my life, just finding that gratitude.

Second thing and this is what I teach my kids all the time, is you can come back from anything. Truly anything, if I could survive this, and again, there’s people who’ve been through way worse than me. I mean, God forbid you lose a child or there’s just things that are way worse than what I went through. But the reality is if you can come back from whatever it is, if you just keep working, you can come back. But that’s what I tell my kids all the time.

I think the third thing is, it may be around the word, or the feeling of authenticity and love. Being yourself. I think I was pretending to be somebody. I mean, there were bits and pieces of me that were me. But I was losing. One of my friends said, you know, back in that day, you were so buttoned up. I was like, what do you mean buttoned up? He said, it was like, we didn’t get to see the real you. We didn’t get to talk to the real you. Even now, it’s hard for me. I mean, it’s hard for me to say I’m a convicted felon, that it’s like I just said, but it’s the reality and it’s me, and it’s okay. I’m okay, because I’m still a good person. I’m still living a great life.

Vegan Turned Carnivore

Scott Mulvaney — Fri, 08 Dec 2023 12:00:00 +0000

Yes, A Vegan Can Heal By Turning To A Carnivore Way Of Life:

Claire is a Carnivore Coach, specialized on Mental health, eating disorders, and living the Lion Diet thanks to her own personal story of transformation to save her life for her son and her own well being.

Quote: Meat Heals My Friends!

Listen in to learn her story of healing, recovery, and transformation from Anorexia Nervosa, and so much more!

Her Struggle With Anorexia Nervosa:

Growing up in France, Claire ate the typical French diet rich in saturated fat and protein. A dancer, she was naturally thin like her fellow ballerinas-in-training. Constant comparisons as to who was the slimmest, however, led Claire to develop body-image issues, and as she entered her teenage years, she started to restrict her eating.

Her parents were in the dark about her struggles, and after experiencing a traumatic incident at the age of 16, her eating disorder got worse and developed into full-blown Anorexia Nervosa.

Finding The Carnivore Diet:

As the years passed by, Claire became a prisoner of her tyrannical eating disorder. At 5′ 7″, her weight would go on to drop to a life-threatening 69 pounds. She became so frail she had to use a wheelchair, and at one point, she even lost the fat from her optical nerves and went blind for months.

Her hair fell out, her teeth fell out, and her heart rate was always hovering below 40. In 2017, she got the flu and died on the table for several minutes. At 33 years old, Claire was desperate beyond measure and started looking for alternative ways to try and conquer Anorexia.

When she came across the carnivore diet, she was intrigued by its simplicity. She started with a low-fat option but still didn’t feel very well. Then, in July of 2021, Claire was unable to go swimming with her family when on vacation because she was freezing cold—even though it was the middle of the summertime.

In her sadness, she became resolved to give the carnivore diet a real try and booked a coaching session with one of the Carnivore.Diet coaches online. They encouraged Claire to think about eating meat and fat like taking medicine, and if she committed to it fully, her body would heal—fast.

“I was so scared, but from one day to another, I only ate fatty meat…it was a life changer.” Claire started off with easy-to-digest ground beef. She also drank raw egg yolks and snacked on butter—sometimes up to several sticks a day!

“I was eating fat all the time, and my body handled it fantastically…It was like body happiness…I couldn’t stop! Since the moment I started eating this way, I was not able to restrict myself anymore. I have to eat when I’m hungry—my body is so happy with it!

Finding Happiness and Learning Weight Optimization:

Within three months, Claire was able to gain 20 pounds and come off all of her anti-depression medication—in close collaboration with her doctor, of course! Now, 39 years old and with a full head of hair, Claire is up to 110 pounds. Instead of being wheelchair-bound and blind, she is able to jump on the trampoline with her son and work all day in her job as an engineer. All of her blood markers are excellent as well, leaving her doctors amazed.

Any lingering concerns about her weight have vanished, and Claire is miraculously unbothered by the scale. “The carnivore diet is not about weight loss; it’s about weight optimization. So, if it brings me to gain twenty more pounds or thirty more pounds—it’s possible—I don’t have any trouble with it.

I want to feel satiated all the time, and I want to be able to think clearly, and I don’t want to restrict… I’m eating amazing food, I’m doing some movement, I’m sleeping well, so the weight will be what it has to be.

Timestamped Show Notes:

05:00 – I was vegan I from 2012 2017, fiver years of my life. You have to find what is true and what is not true. On the internet you can find all the information you want. You can listen to what you want to hear. If you want to hear that veganism is perfect, you will hear that veganism is perfect.

09:00 – When I started switching to veganism, I didn’t want to become a vegan at the beginning. I did it for my son because I was breastfeeding him and he was having health issues because he was allergic to dairy and dairy protein was going into my breast milk. So the doctor asked me to stop just the dairy on my own for him, not to get any dairy, and to get better. So it was the starting point. I just eliminated dairy from my diet first. Then I was looking for more people having the same issues and I start finding people saying similar things.

19:20 – I’m eating lots of meat and my son is really happy with this. H is also eating a lot of meat as well and he knows that meat is good for him. But it’s not eating only meat. It is. I’m really open minded. As long as he has his meat and his fat first, then he can have whatever he wants.

30:30 –I wasn’t drinking alcohol, I stopped in 2010 because my uncle died, he was 30 years drunk. So I was not drinking any alcohol, I was not eating any fat, but I had liver failure, and you have liver failure because you’re not giving nutrients to your body. I had a few heart failure issues because when you don’t get enough potassium into your body, and you cannot retain the potassium, so it gets low and even if I had potassium through my veins every single week, it was not enough to sustain because I was not giving the nutrients. I was just damaging everything. I had a lot of kidney stones. This is due to all these crappy leafy greens I was eating them all of the time. So I was passing kidney stones all the time.

39:30 – It was very important for me and she helped me a lot to get out of the medication because it’s the same, you kind of go out of psychiatrist make medication just listening to person in the inefficiency of saying you go carnivore and then you stop being depressed and anxious. Okay, no, it took me three months, but we did it gradually, and she was helping me with this. No way she would give me back to big pharma, especially if she knows that it’s working and all is fine. But yeah, for all of this very heavy medication, you need medical advice. I’m an engineer, I’m not a doctor.

50:50 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

I left all this of this veganism crap in the past to make me a better person and to be able to educate people. Yeah, I was wrong. I was brainwashed. I’m not anymore, I think on my own. If I can do this, you can too, just because I eat the meat and the fat. So go ahead and go to your butcher and eat meat and fat.

Timestamped Show Notes:

07:00 – We love being distinct. We don’t do what most coaching companies or training companies do most of, that shits boring and useless, as well. Wat they do is usually provide formulas that gesture at results. We don’t mess around. We drive with three very distinct conversations. One is we do care about results. That’s what people are paying for, something new that’s happening that wasn’t happening before. So we get really clear on that and how do we do that? Well, leadership, if we could talk about what leadership is for a long time, but at least we know, leadership is getting results through other people.

23:00 – In our work, we call it vital competencies. This is where life is like the connection between two humans, that’s where life is, period. I mean, we can have a transaction, but we’re not gonna have a future together, that is, unless we like each other. We get some vested interest, and we get shared interest together. Actually, you know what, I’d really trust Scott, I get this guy, even if we want different things, and I get you. We might be on the other side of the table, but it’s like, Man, I get this dude. He’s a real deal. Now that’s vital. That’s like truth telling and that’s really listening. That’s the presence and all of the things that you naturally show up as

30:00 – When I first got into coaching, I would hope nobody would ask, how how’d you get into this? Because I wasn’t an Accenture guy, I wasn’t an IBM guy, I wasn’t a Google guy. There’s a natural thing here, I’ve been spending years doing a bunch of crazy weird shit, from being an ICU nurse at the bedside, when trying to keep a kid alive, to running a multi-million dollar Foundation, to working mostly to doing leadership training with murderers to taking teams to go overseas.

40:00 – It’s honoring our convictions as much as our emotions most, the imposter syndrome was really my feelings about what’s happening matter more to me than my capacity. I speak on lots of big stages these days, I sit in rooms, wave, and have conversations that have lots of dollar signs in the backend. Am I scared? Yes, I am. I am intimidated. I am insecure, I know all of that shits happening. When I’m on the airplane flying across the country being paid good money to do X, all of my shit is coming up. I’m not surprised that it comes up for me. It’s just a part of it.

46:55 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

I love that we talked about legacy a ton. I think about this, especially as a dad, that’s mostly where I think about being a legacy. We got four kids between me and my wife and I think about this a bunch. So my legacy is always go be all in and be all here. That’s what I think about, my commitment level, I’ll just compete with anybody with my commitment level. You know, we’ll see results wise, but you can’t outwork me. You can’t out present me, you can’t outwork me, let’s just go, I’m gonna be all in. I love competition. I love finding the edge for myself. I love all of that. At the same moment, I want to be all here, I’ll be present for it. So to being present, especially with my young kids, talking about the deep complexities of life, I do XYZ.

Now things seem to come easier for me now, blah, blah, blah. But it’s not always been like that. Nor will it always be like that. So I like really sharing the struggle in life. That is as a part of it, and there’s joy in that, like, if you struggle well, like aiming at some meaning, struggle will come up actually faster than if you’re not aiming at anything. If I aim at something, difficulties will come faster, that’s the hard. All of my insecurities, they’re not going away. They’re gonna be here at some level, they’re gonna be here, so I want to talk about those. Talk of them, even with my nine year old. When we’re out on the golf course I just say, hey, how am I doing as a dad? My dad never asked me that question. My dad’s a lovely guy. I don’t think you ever know how am I doing as a dad and I don’t want that answer. You know, a part of me is like, oh, shit, what might he say?

Timestamped Show Notes:

05:00 – I wasn’t diagnosed until I was actually in my 50s. So the background on this is looking back now in working with experts, psychiatrists, I now know that I was living on the bipolar spectrum from teenage years. So in, I always had a, what they call a bipolar brain. But at first, it was a very low level of mania.

10:00 – Mania is really the opposite of burnout. Because with mania, you’re going continuously up, up, up until you blow up and come crashing down to earth. So the manic side of the cycle is up up more and more energy, less sleep, more grandiosity, etc. Then I would say, what goes up must come down. So when you reach a peak level, and your brain is over producing these key chemicals, when it’s time to go the other way, the brain stops producing as much, and it gets fewer and fewer of these chemicals. Then that’s when you hit the burnout, you fall into depression, and your brain essentially begins to shut down. I mean, no energy, withdrawn, confused, you can’t make a decision, can’t get out of bed, can’t go to work. That’s where I think the burnout comes in. It’s just the natural byproduct of the mania.

20:00 – Scott, you’ve actually given me a good idea, and something to think about. Maybe we have a little more specificity in who is my buddy, in what area I’ve given down here. You know, all my friends that, because I’ve written about 25 articles in close to 100 talks, everybody knows, Martin has a bipolar disorder. What I’ve done is I’ve given them these little cards that showed the symptoms of mania and depression. I’ve talked to them and said, okay, look, read this, do you understand it, if you see me displaying any of these symptoms, talk to me, talk to my wife, so we can address it. So that is ours, I’ve got my wife, who has a really good understanding. But I think having a more precise targeting system that you just alluded to, is really the way to go. So I’m gonna have to get busy and put that into effect.

31:00 – There’s a thing called seasonal seasonal affective disorder. I’ve actually had it my whole life. When the days gets short in they fall into the dark, like a long winter, your mood sinks, and you go into kind of a natural depression. Then when the Spring time comes in, the sun’s high and the days are longer and brighter, your depression goes away, and you really get a low level of mania.

41:00 – There are some other side benefits of lithium. There’s been some research done where lithium can help prevent dementia, and it can help prevent other chronic diseases that otherwise would come at a higher, more rapid pace. So there’s some side benefits as well that rise above the toxic concerns.

50:00 – The thing about mania, it’s really important to know that for much of my manic state, it actually helped me. It made me better, it boosted and enhanced my performance, made me smarter, funnier, more energetic, and it wasn’t until you get to a certain threshold and you go too high, that it becomes destructive.

55:50 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

Bipolar disorder and other mental conditions, they can often be deadly and destructive. They could destroy marriages, families, careers, finances, lead to addictions, homelessness, incarceration, death, and even suicide. That’s the bad news. I mean, really, really devastating stuff. That’s the bad news.

The good news is that if you get diagnosed and get treated, and stick with your treatment plan, and you manage these chronic conditions, you can live a happy, healthy, purposeful life, which is a great story! It’s a great news story, and you just have to manage it the way people manage diabetes, or cancer or heart disease.

Now, why don’t people go get help? That’s the $100 question, when they’re sick, why don’t they get help? It’s because of the stigma. That drug leads people to shame and embarrassment. The stigma is just based on ignorance. People still have a notion that when it comes to mental health problems, or due to lack of character, or lack of willpower. Not true, it’s due to physiological conditions inside the wiring of the brain. So once you realize that, there should be no stigma, just like there’s no stigma against diabetes or cancer. So that’s kind of my message, arm yourself with knowledge. A great place to start is the Bipolar General book. Get the knowledge because that knowledge could save your life or the life of somebody that you love.

Breaking Through The Noise Digital Marketing

Scott Mulvaney — Thu, 26 Oct 2023 15:30:00 +0000

How Do You Break Through The Noise Today? Digging Deeper Into Podcasting and Digital Marketing with Tom Schwab:

Have you ever thought your digital marketing might actually be hurting your business? That you are not “breaking through the noise”, you are just adding to it? Perhaps you are not “one funnel away”. Maybe that funnel is stopping the big fish you want. Our guest today has a refreshingly new view.

Quote: “Big fish don’t swim through funnels and whales don’t click”

Tom Schwab asks you to consider that you are just One Conversation Away. That’s his experience and that data working with over 700 leading brands as the Chief Evangelist Officer at Interview Valet. If you want a rich life and a profitable business, Tom believes you are just One Conversation Away.

Today’s Top 3 Takeaways:

Strength in Podcasting and Digital Content.
Sharing is Caring for Digital Marketing.
We’re blessed to be a blessing to others.

Timestamped Show Notes:

10:30 – So it’s interesting, I mean, there’s a lot of problems in the world today. But there is no better time to be alive, right?! Think about it, we can create in the way that’s easiest for us. For me, it’s the same way, over podcasts, I can talk. But you know, writing a blog, that’s a homework assignment, but we can talk and then we can repurpose it either with technology or the people helping us and make blogs out of it, make videos out of it, etc. You know, I always say if I talk for 45 minutes, my team can find like two minutes of genius in there.

21:15 – I have gone through a few microphones and always want to sound better. If you talk you want the good quality, right? In podcasting, we must take pride in our audio quality.

29:45 – There’s a great marketing phrase out there, you’re just one funnel away. I also think it’s the biggest lie out there, because what works for small transactions does not work for high ticket relationship sales? Everybody keeps saying, oh, you’re just one funnel away. Tell me Scott, the best things in your life, right, does your wife come through a funnel? Ha!

34:00 – Well, I had a client that came to me and I said, well, why do you want to do podcast interview marketing? I loved his answer. He was a high level consultant. He said, because he thinks most of digital marketing today is the equivalent of advertising above urinals.

40:00 – Even if it’s all automated and a funnel, it doesn’t matter because you’re wasting their time. It’s like, why don’t you get five leads and five customers? That’s one of the things I love about podcasting. Somebody’s listening to you. You’re either their guy or you’re not. If you are great, then they reach out to you and ask how can we work together. They self select, but if you’re not a good fit for him, then fine, but let’s figure that out early on. Because at the end of the day, we don’t need more leads, we need more need more sales.

52:00 – For example, we just mentioned Sopranos. There was a seasonality to it. Each season can change in the theme, so you’re not locked in. So this season, we can talk about health this season, or we talked about business. So as different things come up, you can focus on it.

01:15:00 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

The thing that’s on my heart right now is we all know something that is ordinary to us and is amazing to other people, right? Through our lives, through our experiences, through our mistakes, we’ve learned things. We are blessed to be a blessing. So I believe that we’ve got a responsibility to share that with other people. What they do with it is up to them. But you know, I used to be able to say, well, if I got up to the pearly gates, and and they say, you were taught all these things, well, how come you didn’t teach somebody else that I could say, well, you don’t understand. I live in southwest Michigan. There’s nobody around me to teach it to, and that’s not true. Now with technologies, the podcast hosts, as a podcast guest, writing blogs, writing books, whatever it is, what’s ordinary is amazing to others. We’re blessed to be a blessing. In your own way, I would encourage you to share what you have learned with other people, because it will help them and it will help remind you of what you’ve learned along the way.

Chiro Wellness and Defining Food

Scott Mulvaney — Sat, 14 Oct 2023 18:00:00 +0000

Talking Better Health, Chemicals, Food, Inflammation, Nutrition, and Overall Wellness:

Dr. Cori Stern has been helping people restore and optimize their health naturally since 2001. Her passion for alternative medicine grew out of a sick childhood characterized by a very poor diet, incessant chronic infections, and never-ending cycles of antibiotics. At the young age of 15, she decided to take her health into her own hands and began self-studying topics like the gut-brain connection, toxins, and how diet impacts a person’s overall well being. Later in life, upon re-realizing her childhood dreams of helping those who suffer heal naturally, she decided to become a chiropractor at 32 and graduated at 37. She now assists people all over the world with overcoming health challenges and advocating for their healthcare. Dr. Cori Stern oversees a busy private practice where she also educates other chiropractors on how to achieve optimal results with their clients. She is the creator of the Dr. Cori Stern – Take Control of Your Health channel known for its bite-sized information on a wide range of modern health topics.

Quote: “Food is anything that grows on the ground, grows on a tree, or has a mother and is minimally processed.” ~ Dr. Cori Stern

Today’s Top 3 Takeaways:

What Is Nutrient-Dense “Food”.

Timestamped Show Notes:

05:15 – As chiropractors, we don’t call it dislocation, we call it subluxation.

09:50 – It can hurt when you’re walking and when you’re laying down, so it’s when any bone is in the wrong place. It can be very painful. It can limit your your activities and functioning. The level of pain can cause other problems to occur in your body. There’s inflammation going on and pain syndromes can really drain your energy and make your life miserable.

20:00 – Seed oils are super cheap to manufacture. So that actually is one of the reasons why they started to push it onto the population. This is my definition of food. This is how we explain what food actually is because most people don’t even think about this. “Food is anything that grows on the ground, grows on a tree, or has a mother and is minimally processed.”

26:00 – We teach people to understand the role that nutrition plays in their body. Most people don’t even know why they need to eat, they really don’t, if you ask the average person, they’ll say, for energy.

31:15 – Real milk is loaded with probiotics. When you pasteurize milk, you’re killing all the good stuff in it, you’re denaturing the protein. So I have a great video about raw milk on my YouTube channel, I interviewed the woman who started the organization called RealMilk.com, which is dedicated to helping people educating them about raw milk and raw dairy and where you can find it anywhere in the world.

39:45 – Almost all of us are nutritionally deficient. So it’s a little difficult to correct nutritional deficiencies with food alone. Even if you’re eating the best quality food a lot of people are starting off with deficiencies and you can’t eat enough of what you need to correct the deficiencies and that’s where supplements do come in handy. However, I use food based supplements so they’re actually still food. So even though there are pills or capsules, I tell my patients, this is food in the shape of a tablet. This will help correct the deficiencies that you have. The goal is that you won’t need it forever.

51:30 – We’ve been so inundated with chemicals that we kind have lost touch with our ability to know what our body needs. A lot of times when people have cravings, they’re actually craving nutrients that they’re deficient in. But they’re misinterpreting the craving and an eating sugar instead or eating salt. She was actually telling me on the video that she’s been training people to be able to do that, that self selection and we see changes with my patients when we get the processed food out of their body. It takes about 120 days to completely grow enough clean new cells to make a difference.

01:05:20 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

This is what I tell people about making choices about their health and their future. Decide if you want to live as long as you can, and be as healthy as possible. Live a long healthy life. So you can enjoy your grandchildren, whatever it is that you want to enjoy in life, or would you prefer to just do whatever the heck you want, just eat whatever you want, trash your body and go out with a bang. That’s the decision that you need to make along with the other ones. But if you want to live as long as possible and be healthy and happy and functional, then you need to eat a clean, nutrient dense diet and take care of yourself.

05:30 – So after I kind of, quote unquote, hung my cleats up, I was looking for a more kind of functional fitness workout routine for myself, and going to gyms and you know, 24 Hour Fitness, Lifetime Fitness, these things felt more like social scenes, and they felt like a place to workout at the time. So I really got into home fitness and just trying to find my own routine that I can rely on, I don’t always have the convenience of going to a location. Kettlebells were just one of those things I explored during that journey.

10:45 – I was telling someone earlier, I think one of the opportunities sports gives you is you get to play all of those battles out, kind of in a simulated way. Whether that’s practice or lifting or the actual games and championships, you kind of get different levels of intensity of battles, and you get to win and lose them. I think that hardens you and prepares you for leading a team through obstacles, especially the unseen ones, you start into entrepreneurship, you never know exactly what every problem is going to be. Out of the problems that come along, the will, perseverance, and grit to get through comes about. If you have the right mindset, you can make it through.

15:45 – I don’t like to hurt people’s feelings. But there are always going to be winners and losers, there’s no such thing as not being winners and losers. Yes, we can live in a better society than we did 100 years ago, and 100 years before that. We should be striving to do that. But even in those societies, there are still going to be people who do better, and people who do worse. Striving to do good is something that I think everyone should do.

22:45 – Preparing for Battle, my book, is launching on Amazon. Even this experience, we talked about preparing for battle, this is my first book, this is my debut book. There were things that I didn’t even know I needed to prepare for myself to do this. But you know, I had a small team that I put together, I worked with my editor quite a bit to make sure I was trying to create something that people actually could digest. So you know, it’s not just me saying it the way I want to say it, but I’m trying to say everything in a way that’s easily digestible, and something that builds a lot of confidence and inspiration and people who are thinking about starting their own business, I think it’s more about getting in the right mindset for the challenges ahead than thinking that you can study or cram all the information or memorize all the information necessary to be an entrepreneur.

31:00 – In football, you had to position yourself and prepare yourself for that type of impact, potentially, or avoid that type of impact. That was part of the strategy. I think that’s the closest that we actually get to combat sports or physical sports like that. I think it’s the closest we actually get to the kind of real world consequences for some of our decisions.

40:00 – I think that’s the issue, like you said, not every company cares, and the companies that don’t care, unfortunately, they get the profits early on. They also get the best stories that come out about them. I’m sure there are people who are saying, hey, this company was too good to be true. Or you could have done your research and seeing prior to the story coming out that they necessarily weren’t abiding by the book. Trying to put a high quality product as the foundation of what they do. For me, it’s hard for me not to do that with any brand that I associate myself with.

52:25 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

When I graduated from college, and even when I first started the business, I didn’t realize how many people don’t necessarily have the same intensity about business, but the same same intensity about kind of creating or leaving a legacy. I know there are people out there like that now, and I think a lot of times you have doubt, because maybe everyone in your circle or everyone around you is not necessarily as intense about success or healthy lifestyle. I tell people to lean into that and to lead people towards the direction in what you know, is right. I think all business owners, especially any type of person that’s in a position of leadership needs to be kind of held more accountable to the overall well being of what they’re trying to achieve. Am I a cut enough corners today to get to the bottom line? I think it has to be a more conscious approach to life, especially now that we’re in this digital age.

Timestamped Show Notes:

05:00 – I finally ended up taking a leave of absence and then ended up leaving, I was an Illinois State Trooper and I ended up leaving because of fitness businesses that I had not the one I have now a different fitness business, I started, but it really took off. But, you know, throughout that I also even when I was a police officer, I was super interested in fitness. I was bodybuilding and powerlifting even when I was a police officer, as a police officer, I got as heavy as like 235 pounds as a power lifter, and I’d get down to 175 pounds for a bodybuilding competition.

13:15 – I think that if we’re coming in a couple different ways. From a department perspective, you know, obviously, like you said, unscripted, my thoughts go to leadership. Leadership is incredibly important in companies, in police departments, in anything.

22:25 – Even though fitness has been in my kind of personal DNA, when I was a state trooper, I started a little supplement company. I thought, if I can just make enough money to pay for my own protein powder, I’ll be happy. So you know, we call it a side hustle now, but here was the thing, there was there was no internet then. So I placed little classified ads in the back of bodybuilding magazines like Flex Magazine, Ironman, and it was a toll free number and I couldn’t even answer the phone because I was a police officer working. So when I got the call they would have to leave a message.

33:00 – Why are we letting ourselves, and we’re capable of so much, go down that emotionally depressed path? How do we catch them sooner? How do we get them in-line sooner to help themselves? – It’s a great question. I think that part of the reason, I’ll give this quote, “For every complex problem, there’s an answer that is clear, simple, and wrong.” Since it is a complex question, I’ll try not to just turn it into one thing, you know, do it reductionist. I’ll say this, I think that part of the answer is, if you have worked with people at all in the addiction space, it’s not always rational, because in my head when I was 32, I was rational but like what is going on here?

40:00 – There’s so much to focus on, and it’s more than just take personal responsibility and just buck up man. Pull yourself up by your bootstraps and do this, except that we are in this incredibly obesogenic environment. By obesogenic, your listeners probably know what it means. But to me, it just means that all things external and internal that drive the overconsumption of ultra-processed food. The simple fact that ultra-processed food is addictive, which is also obesogenic.

51:00 – One of the elements of emotional fitness is self-awareness. When you have more self-awareness, you are more conscious. What happens is, you go catastrophic, or you don’t go catastrophic. For example, if I had an argument with my spouse or my significant other, I’d say well, I guess we’re gonna end up divorced, I’ll be homeless, alone, living under a bridge penniless, nobody will ever love me ever again. Now I know, I’m exaggerating. But I think your listeners will all get that we all do that, to some extent, if something is really the thing that lights us up quick. What if something’s become what we call a conditioned, automated response. Conditioned as in like Pavlov’s dogs.

01:07:00 – Final Words

Our Final Words of the Show:

Honestly, it’s the reason I transitioned out of supplements. I sold a supplement company and I went all in on llcu. Because I started thinking about what were the what were the positive things that people were saying about me. And to me with regard to the supplements, hey, thanks for the great prices, the fast shipping, the protein that helped me get ready for the thing that whatever the thing was, and I went, I literally went, this was back in 9798, I went, I have got so much more in me than that. And on the back of my tombstone, I don’t want thanks for the fast shipping. Thanks for the, you know, the low prices. Thanks for that. I said, I want to really have done everything I can to help people transform truly transform from the inside out and have their lives be bettered not just physically, but emotionally, mentally, spiritually, in ways that transcend not only their life, but that they can then share with and help the next generation and the next generation and the next so. And so that’s why I’m so passionate about making sure people understand what they’re facing what’s going on. Because I want them to win, I really want them to win. And they can if they have the information and the support and the system. So I mean, that’s not really a pretty simple, you know, answer, but it really is all about helping people to be their best selves and have that transcend. I’ve got grandkids now, Scott. So I see my kids with their kids. Yeah, we were just there this weekend, we were in Dallas visiting and seeing the grandkids. I can’t tell you how important it is and how special it is for me to see, you know, the influence?

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

03:30 – It was it was actually super fun. So the conferences were both in this old engine building factory that had been refurbished into like a venue for events. And so they have all of the old. Like the cranes in there and stuff. I mean, obviously, they’re not moving it or using it. But yeah, you go in and they had a big screen down all the way at the end of the room. And they had speakers rooms upstairs. And anyway, it was it was very, very cool, then you a lot of the people that they had at the event, were some of the people that were kind of pushing the state of the art forward in JavaScript. And so and some of them I knew already, some of them we’d had on like JavaScript Jabber, which is our big podcast on JavaScript. And so yeah, so just meeting up with him in person, you know, getting to know him shaking hands. I recorded a handful of interviews.

10:00 – The difference is, and it’s kind of the same thing that I did with Microsoft for five or six years, is if you go as a speaker or influencer, it’s a different thing. If you’re going as an attendee, sometimes even some of the conferences just going as a speaker, it’s different than going as an influencer. If you’re one of the people that they go out of their way to get to the conference, then a lot of times, they’ll pull out all the stops.

19:30 – The other version of that is none of these technologies standstill. None of them do. So even if you’re working in a place that is hey, we’re going to stick on the version we’re at, we’re gonna use the technology we know. You find all kinds of opportunities learning the next thing in the technology you’re already an expert in. Maybe you want to go with indie game development, which is one area that I want to branch into. It’s super popular, and there’s a ton of stuff going on, and it’s getting easier. So if that’s an area of interest for you, by all means, if you want to move into management, then you’re talking about project management, people management and helping them do essentially what I’m doing just one on one.

22:20 – The video game standing in for real life for military applications, you know, where maybe you replicate a cockpit, or combat situations where you’re carrying a weapon and things like that. With AR and VR opening it up, you don’t even see the gun, you carry the prop, that is a game controller. But going beyond that, like office professionals these days, a lot of the stuff that they’re doing, the interactive stuff that they’re learning, that’s all being done with game development technology. They’re using Unity, which is an engine for building video games. So from there, it’s not just watch a video and then click on the right answers in the quiz anymore, which is what I did in a past corporate life. But now it’s literally you’re working through a work function, or you’re documenting and outlining some process that you have to do at work

31:20 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

The way that I got into the conference thing in the first place, was I had a listener to one of the shows, who wanted to have a Ruby track at a conference that he was helping organize. So he set it all up, they got us to come out, I actually lined up for a bunch of my friends to come out as speakers. We went up to Vancouver and while I was there, there was another podcast called .NET.

So .NET is Microsoft’s technology stack. They were doing a series on agile development. It’s a methodology, it’s a set of principles for running a team. They asked me to join the panel, because I had a different take on things because I came from a different background. So I joined the panel got to know the guys that ran that show. It turned out that they were the ones that wound up one of those guys who ended up organizing the podcast setup at the Microsoft events. So sometimes it works to get to know the people directly involved. But sometimes it helps just to get to know people and empower people who eventually introduce you to those people.

Going Green With Pela Case and Lomi

Scott Mulvaney — Thu, 17 Aug 2023 13:00:00 +0000

Working To Eliminate 10 Billion Pounds Of Waste, Let’s Go Green:

Jeremy believes creating businesses as a force of good to leave the world better than we found it. While climbing society’s corporate ladder as an environmental consultant he felt the urge to live his own dreams so he started Open Mind Developments Corporation in 2007 to look at problems with an open mind for a different view, and solve them.

Seeing plastic litter on a beach inspired Jeremy to create the world’s first compostable phone case and Pela in 2011, to help solve the plastic waste problem. Pela recently created Lomi, a Smart Waste Appliance to help solve the food waste and plastic problem and is now creating a waste innovation category with a goal of eliminating 10 billions pounds of waste on their mission to create a waste free future.

Jeremy’s experience with self awareness, personal growth, going from zero to 1, going from employee to entrepreneur, the power of trust and a team, and the emotional side of business on his journey helps provide a guide for those who are ready to take action on their dreams, create their own personal legend and make the world a better place to be.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

09:25 – Another reason that we liked about phones at high margins, so you could pay more for material, small product, put in the mail, ship it directly to consumers and you don’t have to worry about the big gatekeepers and getting into retail with low margins. So that’s how early on we overcame that, that margin difference. In the grand scheme of things, no, it’s not that much more.

20:35 – In 2018, when the three of us partners came together, we really clarified our vision and our mission. Our mission, our crazy goal, was to create a waste free future by creating everyday products in an everyday way. So not just the product waste, but like packaging waste, and are we wasting energy or time? How can we use our product as a force of good and how can we support nonprofits? How can we build the most sustainable, environmentally friendly product or company in the world? So that was our basis point.

32:30 – We’re not trying to solve the electrical grid generation issue. I believe, one day, we’re gonna get there. It’s going to be quicker, one day energy will be renewable. We’ve run all of the numbers, depending on if you’re in Texas, or California, your carbon footprint is more or less. As long as you’re not sending your end product to the landfill, it’s a win. Because you’re keeping it out of the landfill. It’s either going in your backyard or in your farm or other place. So you’re ahead from a carbon footprint standpoint, and we also are Climate Neutral certified. So we measure our carbon footprint every year. We try as best we can do our carbon footprint, but the stuff that we can’t lower anymore, we purchased offsets, carbon credits. So when Lomi arrives at your door, all the manufacturing, all the transportation, and your phone case, you’re at zero.

40:30 – In regards to landfill methane collection, it’s good, but it’s not as efficient yet. It’s a good step forward. They’re trying, anytime you’re trying, I give everyone credit, because it’s not easy. We all need to try to make those little steps

53:35 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

The first thing that came to mind is, are you, or are we being good ancestors? Are we leaving the planet better than we found it? You measure everything by that, like it could be as far as raising children or however you show up in the community, like brightening people’s days. I think it sounds simple, but that is the most powerful thing and supporting companies who are also trying to do better. Hey, we’re not perfect, but like companies, even big companies, if they’re trying to make a little bit of a change, then at least try. I mean, we got to start somewhere, right? So yeah, that type of thinking,

Melissa is a best-selling author, speaker, and master business coach that became a self-made millionaire by the age of 31!

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

10:00 – I actually would take my clients on these international retreats. The reason that even started was because when I went to Bali for the first time, I don’t share the same religion as the Balinese folks do, but I’ve never seen such grateful people. That gratitude is off the charts in Bali!

21:30 – I’m not all about the hustle, per se, because I like that steady flow, the steady as you go, open, solid, and then keep your pace up. I do like to do things with grace and ease. So that creates a mindset that I have to take on. Because if things are getting too much anxiety, I think there’s always limitless possibilities. So I say what does it need to look like for me to do this with grace?

33:00 – I had a very successful life in corporate America. But one day I was at this really nice hotel, looking outside the window, and I was like, this can’t be what life is all about. This can’t be my forever after. I thought that the more bonuses, the more salary I get, was the more freedom I get.

41:50 – It is such a process. It’s a mindset. It’s a behavior that follows it, it’s a commitment and dedication to creating those better habits. So it’s all a process, it’s all about that muscle, and giving yourself the grace to know that like, when I go to the gym, my first day, I’m not lifting 50 pounds. I’m not doing that, I can lift it, and I’m not going to go to the gym again.

50:50 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

I think the legacy that I’d like to leave behind is that first of all, everyone that’s listening, you are so freakin important and you are a valuable person. Whether you have kids or not, you are influential, people are always watching all of us. Part of living rich is embracing all of who you are, the good, the bad, the quirky, your education, your experiences, and really being able to accept yourself and be unapologetic about the gift that you are to this world. From there, you can create so many things.

But I feel like sometimes you need to stop and say you know what, I am awesome. Create an awesomeness list for yourself. Create a list for yourself, that speaks on like, if you’re a mom or your dad or your you graduated or, or you were a good friend of somebody, make a list of the things that you’re proud of, that you’ve been able to do, no matter how big or small. When you’re faced with something challenging, go back to that list. Because it will remind you that, look, you are really great in these things. These are the things that you’re able to accomplish. If you can do that, you might not know how this ends up, but give yourself the courage and the space to be awesome again. So that’s what I would say, to be able to embrace all of who you are because you matter that much. That’s what it is to live a rich life and then build and create from there.

Smart Nutrition and Health with Ari Tulla

Scott Mulvaney — Fri, 23 Jun 2023 11:00:00 +0000

Ari Tulla is a San Francisco-based entrepreneur and the co-founder & CEO of the smart nutrition service, Elo, whose mission is to transform food from the leading cause of disease to medicine.

When not working or co-parenting his two young children with his wife, Ari spends his time on the steep cliffs, powdery slopes, and big cold waves that only Northern California can offer.

Today’s Guest & Resource Links:

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

11:15 – It’s also powerful in a way that, I became a believer of the idea of food as medicine. I always remind myself that I wake up, the kids are here, because food was medicine. We would not have done that. We would not have, they would not be here. So, I mean, it’s pretty powerful for them. They don’t know the story yet.

20:00 – Some of them actually are facts that you need to listen, it just took time to find the right people to start implementing the implementers, whether it be engineers, or just people who just decided to execute on the on the game plan and figure it out. All of a sudden we apply these discoveries that weren’t fully applied, they were implemented before.

32:45 – That’s the point about this idea that we are looking at, you know, 12-13 biomarkers today on blood. Normally we think about blood biomarkers, we can think about, maybe sweat, but you can also think about digital biomarkers, like sleep and weight data, and your HRV and your activity, your heart rate, and many other things. So, one thing that we are trying to do a lot every day, is to really focus on understanding. How do we master nutrition? How do we build these things that are going to help you make that behavior change stick?

41:30 – So it’s so interesting, it’s why we alone, we talk about the nutrition problem, and we work today in a world of supplements and powders and stuff like that. It doesn’t mean we are going to stop there, we’re going to go into into food fairly quickly. But while we did start with the supplements, for example, I think it’s mind boggling and many people don’t know the fact that 20 million people in this country are taking supplements every day.

57:30 – In the bag, what we are sending to people and is handed back to that person, is blended specifically for that person. We have worked with really, really good people on the backend to make it scalable. This is something that has never really been done before. So every product we do, we try to be able to customize the protein, literally every protein bag we put out is gonna be different for that customer.

01:03:45 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

I think for me, the really the big thing is that the smart nutrition is something that you know, I believe it can become a real thing. Like a smartphone. What if we, now in the next decade, we invent this concept and take it further not us, but you know, hundreds of people, 1000 people, you know, hundreds of companies are gonna I hope adopt this idea. What if we, what if this becomes like a smartphone? What if half the people adopt smart interest and products that come from this world? What if we can actually with this sense, the way healthcare is perceived, and my big thing that I want to work on? I don’t know if it’s possible, but I think today that we might be able to figure it out, the code of health for humans by connecting us into more sensors and more biomarkers, and I think we can all find the universal theory of health, and it will look very different than what we have today.

When we have 100 different types of doctors. Looking at one part of your body. It’s like you’re blindfolded and you’re taxing the elephant from the nose and from the tail. That’s what the doctors do. and they don’t communicate to care, they don’t convene together to talk about your condition, the one doctor makes the call and then the other ones are not in the loop, they barely even see the data or the audit or the record.

00:30 – Introduction

06:30 – Shoutout to singer Dominque Briar.

09:30 – In October 2016 on an island in the Gulf of Thailand, I’m there with my business partner. I wake up to the text in capital letters, and he’s Mr. understatement, “We have $1,000 in the bank, we just just made payroll, we have $1,000 in the bank?!”

15:25 – 99% of people use self-inflicted limiting thought processes which comes down to a lack of education, basic education, about how our words influence us, for better and for worse. When I say your language, I mean internal dialogue and external dialogue.

21:00 – Badass as hell, man. I’ve got a similar story, dude. I got a one way ticket when I flew over to Thailand in 2007. My goal was to go pro as a coach at this fasting and cleansing resort on that same island. I left behind a teaching career and that’s when I just went for it!

29:00 – It’s the beginner syndrome, all the beginner syndrome is, is the awkwardness of learning a new skill. It’s the awkwardness of being new to a scene.

36:30 – The Victim Mentality, actually defined, acquired personality that… a person tends to repeat to himself or herself, as the victim.

40:00 – Mark provides a 2nd, quicker definition, of the Victim Mentality and it’s impacts.

45:00 – Most of it comes from lack of preparation or lack of belief in your product. Then of course, there’s the identity part that we bring into everything that we do. When someone is breathing poorly in a sales conversation, and their breath is trapped in the chest, the person that is your prospect is going to pick up on that.

51:40 – Mindset defined by Enlifted

01:11:00 – Beginner syndrome, it’s the awkwardness, it’s the skill acquisition, it’s like, oh, what am I doing, and then you figure it out. Then you get better at it and then your confidence increases with your competence.

01:21:10 – Finding your purpose? No pressure everybody. Let’s unpack that “purpose”. Even though I need to find my purpose, for me, even though I fell in love on site, and thought this was cool shit and I still think it is, the whole language and word game. I did not commit to the thing until 10 years in. So here’s a good progression. explore your interests. What are you interested in? For example, what is jujitsu, I’m interested, okay, so go do it for six months, see what happens.

01:34:39 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

Your LANGUAGE is powerfully influencing you, for better and for worse. With just a minimal amount of education, you can change the way you’ve seen yourself. You can change the way you see your place in the world, you can change the way that you interact with other people.

Most importantly, we didn’t talk about this as much as I normally talk about it on podcasts, because we’re known as the language people, and that’s nice, it’s great. It’s great to be known for something, we might as well be known as the language and the breathing people. Push comes to shove, gun to head, it’s about the BREATH. You can learn to use your words in more constructive, dare I say and I do dare say, elegant ways. Unlock your breathing because guess what? It’s hard to enjoy being you when your breath is trapped in your chest. That’s where most people’s breath is trapped, it’s trapped in their chest.

A little fun fact. The second and third most commonly purchased over the counter medications are indigestion medication, and constipation medication. In my personal professional opinion, it’s because people’s breath is trapped in their chest.

Chuck Returns To Talk Success As a Developer, Conference Development, and More:

Today’s Top 3 Takeaways:

Keep learning and keep practicing.
Build your network beyond your local community.
Executive aka Virtual Assistants, Growing your team.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

04:30 – So at Devchat.tv, we had podcasts, and it was just a podcast network as the focus. So what we were doing is we were releasing shows in a number of different areas. JavaScript is something that I think a lot of people have heard about if you’ve been on the web. We had shows on Ruby, React is JavaScript for the web. So we have shows about all kinds of stuff like that. I’m looking, at this point, pulling together a couple of shows and putting out products now and that’s where the rebrand came in. So some of the new shows are going to be on game development and then the products are going to center around Front-End Web Development, game development, machine learning, security, stuff like that. Those, those are the the areas where, like it or not, I mean, that’s where things are growing. So effectively, the rebrand came into play when I went through a period in 2019, where the not so nice people on Twitter decided they wanted my business to crash and burn.

10:00 – Ultimately that was the other thing, a lot of the questions I get are, how do I advance? How do I move out? How do I move ahead? My answer is mostly you got to do stuff that people aren’t doing. So that’s consistent learning, consistent practice, consistent growth, meeting other people. It is building your network beyond your local community, making contributions to the community, putting content out there, if you’re doing those kinds of things, that’s where the growth is. So that’s where my focus has been now is, I’m gonna give you content to level up your technical skills. That’s kind of obvious to most people in the development space, and to people who think about the development space for about half a minute.

20:00 – Initially, I hired my executive assistant or virtual assistant, she’s in Philippines, by the way, which is a great source for that. I would just hand her tasks that needed to be done. She at this point succeeded, so we’ve hired somebody else to help her. If there’s something she can’t figure out how to do, or she knows that I already know how to do, then I’ll record a video and I’ll send it over. But probably half of the stuff she does, at this point is stuff that she has determined will get us toward our goals. So she just takes the lead on a lot of that. At this point, what we’re doing now is we’re getting clear on our strategic plan. We are documenting, so now she’s building checklists, this is how we do this.

25:50 – The other piece of this is, is that I’m intending to do that, I already named the areas I was focused in, but I’m intending to do courses on a premium basis for those. So they’re not just courses so much as they’re, hey, here’s your weekly training! It’s 10 minute videos, you get two of them a week. So if you want to stay up on the technology area, that’s what we’re doing. Then the same thing with a lot of the career and soft skills education too.

30:45 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

What I found is that mostly, it’s just that consistent effort, right? There’s something to be said, for planning ahead. So where do I want to end up? What are some of the intermediate steps? Maybe look a year out or three months out, what are kind of the time horizons that I like to plan for? So what do I deliver every day? For 90 days, to be well on track for that.

Then the other thing we talked a little bit about, just getting cancelled on Twitter and stuff like that. The other thing is, is that you really do have to figure out who you are and where you want to end up. Because at the end of the day, I was coasting at that point. I mean, I had a $300,000 business, but I was coasting. I was going to the conferences and sure, I’d find new sponsors. I’d show up, I was having fun, but I wasn’t reaching the potential that I wanted, that I knew I could reach, but I was comfortable. So it’s a blessing when you have a hardship that forces you to rethink things. Just be really clear about where you want to end up. Where are you going? What is this about? Then that consistent effort will start getting you to where you’re most focused.

Cancer, Metabolism, and The Gerson Therapy

Scott Mulvaney — Mon, 29 May 2023 16:00:00 +0000

Dr. Vickers Joins To Discuss Cancer, Metabolism, Immune System Health, and the Gerson Therapy:

A 1997 graduate of New York Chiropractic College, representing the face of the Gerson Therapy Worldwide, Dr. Patrick Vickers is featured in the epic documentary series, The Truth About Cancer: A Global Quest. Dr. Vickers’ patient is also chronicled in the classic documentary, The Beautiful Truth.

Nobel Peace Prize Winner, Dr. Albert Schweitzer, called Dr. Max Gerson, “The most eminent genius in medical history” as The Gerson Therapy has the most storied reputation, to date, for its ability to reverse advanced cancer and degenerative diseases. With seven movies chronicling Dr. Gerson’s work, no other therapy has received such recognition on an international scale. Unfortunately, the Gerson Therapy remains the most censored therapy by governments, medical authorities and media outlets around the world as it poses an imminent threat to the conventional medical system.

Personally trained by Dr. Gerson’s family and one of the few people to have studied Dr. Gerson’s handwritten files, Dr. Patrick Vickers continues to carry on Dr. Gerson’s legacy through his premier, Advanced Gerson Clinic in Rosarito, Mexico as well as lecturing and interviewing on various platforms around the world on the indisputable, cellular science behind health, disease and the Gerson Therapy.

Fix Metabolism First
Health The Gut

Albert Schweitzer

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

09:30 – I can tell you during the last 25 years, we have dug our graves with our forks. We have single handedly destroyed our own bodies through diet, through what we’re putting on our bodies and in our bodies. What we eat, whatever we’re drinking, etc. I’ve been doing this 25 years and the average age coming into our clinic is 50 to 55. That is when disease typically sets in. Because the human body can only handle the onslaught of everything we do to it for decade after decade after decade, or right until we hit the fifth decade.

17:30 – We must begin to restore the human digestive tract. That’s the first aspect of metabolism. So that’s how you do it, you have to start by healing the gut. That’s where the Gerson Therapy has reigned supreme. That’s why eight movies chronicled our work. That picture you showed of Albert Schweitzer Nobel Peace Prize winner called Gerson the greatest genius in medical history, you know, so this is where it starts is by starting to restore metabolism.

23:20 – I’d like to address your question on what do we do about healthy fats. I mentioned how we heal the first aspect of human metabolism, how we restore metabolism, it starts in the gut 70% of your immune system. There’s three aspects of metabolism, we have to restore to be able to cure patients. The next step is restoring the proper fats at the level of a cell membrane. So now you’ve healed the gut, you’re properly able to break down and absorb nutrients into the bloodstream again. Now you have to get those nutrients and sugars into the cell and you need to get oxygen into the cell to be able to convert sugar into energy.

31:15 – We’ve essentially reestablished the charge at the level of the cell membrane with polyunsaturated fat in the form of only flax oil. Once they’re cured, they can go back, Gerson would say follow an 80/20 rule, 80%. You must maintain those principles of his dietary regimen, just the principles, you don’t have to do 80% of the juicing, 80% of the coffee enemas, which we haven’t even talked about yet. But an 80/20 rule, 80% Stick to the principles. 20% Enjoy yourself, right? Have a steak, have some butter, have some coconut oil, you know, that wasn’t a problem.

41:20 – Look at the dumbing down of America, which has taken place over the last several decades. Ralph Nader, the guy who would always run as an independent for the presidency… He was once quoted as saying, living in the United States is like being in a football stadium filled with 330 million screaming obnoxious fans, you’re standing on the 50 yard line, and you manage to shut them up for about 20 seconds, and you scream out, is there anybody in the stadium who can tell me the difference between ignorance and apathy, and 99.999% all yell back, we don’t know an we don’t care! If you can keep people entertained 24/7, with Hollywood, with sports, with music, you can do whatever you want to them. They have dumbed down the American people and world public, they’ve made them apathetic and ignorant. That’s ultimately what it comes down to. People stop questioning, and they’ve trusted what they’ve seen on the boob tube. They just haven’t really questioned the things that have been presented to them over the last 3-4-5-6 decades, people have no clue that the cure for cancer has been around for over 100 years. That’s mind boggling.

53:25 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

The Gerson Therapy historically has been a therapy to treat advanced disease. You’ve heard the adage, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, right? Well, the day and age that we live in today, now, this therapy has to become a means of just prevention. Rather than just treating disease, we are under the greatest onslaught in history of everything from toxicity, to poor food. More importantly, what we really didn’t delve into, and that’s the elephant in the room, the pandemic and the agenda behind all that. The things that they’re doing to us right now, people have got to wake up or they are going to be experiencing disease.

These diseases are arriving so quick, so aggressive now. These cancers are so much more aggressive, and just happening almost overnight. I mean, it truly is just insane to watch what’s going on, because my clinic is a microcosm of what’s going on in the world. Just in the last two to three years since the pandemic, but things are coming in the aggressive nature of the cancer. It is getting crazy and they’re not done. So this therapy becomes more of a means of prevention, let alone trying to heal an advanced disease like a terminal Cancer.

The unfortunate thing is, is that people, most people, they won’t do what they need to do until they’re on their deathbed. That is the unfortunate reality. Foods become so social, so emotional, and people no longer have the discipline to combat that and do what they need to do eat to live, rather than live to eat.

00:30 – Introduction

09:50 – That’s what happened and you know, I just got super inspired and moved out to Southern California and LA when I was 21 years young. I was excited to be in LA, the palm trees, that healthy living lifestyle, all that California has to offer. But when you’re 21 years old and you’re 3000 miles from home, you’re not a fit guy. You have very little professional skills to offer the world. Honestly, that plastic capital, the world is really a better place vibe.

19:35 – That’s human nature to its core. I would say back in the day of 2012, when our brand came to existence, I guess my official franchise, it was the wild wild west. So there was structure there, but not nearly the amount of support and paint by numbers playbook and SOP’s and whatnot that we have today. So I wouldn’t say it was a different timeframe, to your point I found the playbook. Although I did make some edits and tweaks along the way.

30:20 – With that support system, technically, then you’re even more successful. Right? And if you’re coming in as if you didn’t have the system, your mindsets there, you are ready to put in the long hours, the intensity, build your team, build the business, build the brand, build your clientele, and you have a system. Oh, my God, the world could be your oyster, so to speak. It’s rocket fuel!

43:00 – We’re extremely challenging here in 2023. I mean, we’ve had our best year in years for 2022, we’ve just awarded it will be 50 franchise locations this year, our franchise, the brand, the energy is off the charts, our franchise partner locations are the most successful they’ve ever been. So to your point, sometimes you got to go through the mess, and sometimes you got to go through hell to get to heaven.

50:00 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

I think for me the legacy that I want to leave and when people look at me and you know, talk about me and the impact with my connection with them, is I want them to leave with the thought of this guy may be better. I think, generally speaking, as time will continue on, I’ll continue to get more granular on that vision and be able to clarify it even more. But where I’m at right now, from a fitness perspective, from a leadership perspective, a business coach, consultant perspective, really what I’ve tried to do over the last 10 to 15 years in my career, is just leave it better than I found it to add value to people, and help them along the way. Help them have that mindset, because I connected with this guy, because I connected with this organization, because I rubbed shoulders, I’m better off for it. Now I have a duty, obligation, and responsibility to do the same thing for others.

Book: The Buddha And The Badass by Vishen Lakhiani

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

05:00 – I got a couple of buddies of mine that just get shit done. I move hard and fast. These guys are like 10x. That’s one of the things I look forward to and look for when I’m interacting with people. Looking at people, asking what are they doing, how are they operating, how are they getting it done? And what can I steal from them and implement into my life so I can make some of that reality for me.

15:30 – It also helps improve the positivity that comes into your own world. We all have a choice as far as what we can input into our brains, right? We choose what we can read, we choose what we watch on TV, if we watch TV at all. One of the big shifts for me, was actually making the conscious decision to turn things off like the news. Turn things off like the news and all of a sudden, my mindset is better. I’m not a grumpy fuck all the time.

24:00 – I’m reading this book right now, The Buddha And The Badass by Vishen Lakhiani, this guy owns a really successful company called Mind Body.

32:45 – 100% So I did it backwards. And I was just in the gym and didn’t hear anything else. Right? Sometimes not the smartest dude in the room. So I was 283 pounds. Got to work on me was 75 hard work. By the time I wrapped it up and was done. I was like, 250 pounds in like, looking lean.

44:45 – I have two wellness doctors that I deal with, one’s a chiro and one’s an actual MD. The MD is like I don’t really give a shit what those of my colleagues here think in the US. He actually trained a lot in Europe and everything that he’s told me, Europe is 10 years advanced of where we are at with most things. So I got both of these guys doing a bunch of things and they’re both high performance, former athletes who have become doctors and are hard charging very successful entrepreneurs. They are not just in medical practices, but a lot of other ventures that they’ve gone on with. They understand the game, they understand how entrepreneurs move and operate.

58:30 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

Every one of our social media posts that we finish on that small steps forward daily, like literally, that’s how I live my life. You know, a lot of people want to go back to baseball, for instance, right? So do people want to come to the plate and they want to smash that home run? Or get the Grand Slam and knock it out of the park? In reality, it happens every so often, but not so much. I’d rather go there and hit base base hits, right, hit a ground ball, and get on base every time.

Any of the big wins that I’ve had in my life have been a very gradual build up of small wins over a long period of time that then transition over. So yeah, this whole theory of oh wow, he’s an overnight success. Yeah, 22 – 23 years of hard work to become an overnight success.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

08:05 – You can’t outwork a bad diet is something we discuss all the time, and just taking the time to understand what parts that are going to look at, you know what part of that picture we need to address. We tend to look at it through running a body like a business, which is really a discussion we have quite a lot because generally the people we talked to in that higher corporate space or business owner spaces.

16:00 – I’ve always joked, I’m working with the people that need it, but don’t want it, I’m always trying to find a way to make sure that we work with courage of men and and business owners in that space . They need to look after their health, but they’re still looking at as a conflicting interest from work.

22:15 – I was basically on the brink of the professional bodybuilding world. So really, that scene, getting to 100 kilos, basically 220 pounds, that three or four % body fat, you are looking your best and feeling your worst at that moment.

27:00 – That’s the big part of having that conversation around the stress and realizing that it’s really an alignment of the two. I’ve said it a couple of times, it is trying to make sure that you know a lot of these guys, so they can resonate with being an athlete at some point in their life, they became competitive, they push themselves in some way. So they understand what that looks like from a physical threshold, they very rarely understand that they’re going through the same mental athleticism in that current role, the amount of responsibility, the amount of mental hurdles that are happening at 3am, the lack of time to actually stop and recuperate.

35:30 – A mentor said to me the other day, and it stuck with me really well, if I gave the level of stress that I just tack on over a day to day basis today, to me 10 years ago, it would have crippled me. I just didn’t have that mental muscle built up. So understanding how many more things you’re tackling in that day, I think it’s such a drastic part of it. That understanding that was pretty big.

40:00 – It’s understanding what you’re eating with when you’re eating, which is where this picture comes in really nicely. We’re looking at integration of physical, digestive, and psychological, understanding that you can’t separate these three. We’re in this world, we’re constantly trying to say, well, here’s the perfect nutrition plan, or here’s the perfect training plan or whatever.

52:15 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

For me, I think one of the things I learned really early on that’s made a huge difference in how I approach all of this was, when I was rowing in high school, it was something that you knew that you were doing more before 9am than everyone else was doing in their day, and you kind of had that as a bit of a chip on your shoulder, going into your day. But what I noticed is I was falling asleep in class and I was you know, grades are impacted. And I was trying to play the poor me mentality, right? Like, now I’m doing rowing. So you know, I need to have special treatment. And I can’t remember who it was at the time. But he said, You do realize it’s something you chose to do. Right. And I think just anchoring that and realizing that this is something you get to do not something you have to do, right. And I think many of us are just the the dog lying on the nail, right? It’s not painful enough for us to move. So we’re just moaning about it. And I think taking the time to just be aware of that space is a huge part of just creating ownership around your situation. Right? If you’re talking about situations and circumstances you’re giving power to it, if you truly want to take ownership of your life and take the time for the parts of it that are less than optimal. Then look at it through that lens you get to you don’t have to but if you want to sit there and be that the person the dog lying on the nail, that’s ultimately what’s happening and you just need to stop lying to yourself. I think it’s a big part of it is just intentionality.

The Real Food Wave Part 2

Scott Mulvaney — Sat, 11 Mar 2023 12:15:00 +0000

What is The Real Food Wave, part 2, with Mito Man Randy Lee:

Randy (The Mito Man) is an independent researcher, author, and citizen scientist who’s both blessed and cursed to have been born with a fanatical need to know. Today he’s a reality/false-reality decoder. But he must have been an inventor or reporter in a previous life, because he loves searching for the perfect way to say and do things.

Quote: Let food be thy medicine. ~ Hippocrates

His past work includes Gut-Brain Secrets, which is all about food quality — both the inputs that create it, and the outcomes to people and planet. His latest work, The Mitochondriac Manifesto, aims to overturn our old beliefs about where health or sickness comes from, in light of what we now know about mitochondria, seasonal cycles, and energies in and around the body.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

09:15 – What they’re discovering is people assume that organic means it’s more nutritious, but no, it actually is not. The data is showing that it’s actually below average. The Certified Organic is below average, but the uncertified organic, when the farmers adhere to certain practices, they actually grow above average nutritional produce. They’ve shown things like cover cropping and various other practices will now produce stuff that is just across the board good or bad. Hydroponic is shown to be below average. This is very interesting because when you return to the ancestral farming practices, you are also going to return to the ancestral results we used to get when obesity was uncommon, Cancer was rare, and Heart Disease was rare. So imagine a world where chronic disease almost didn’t exist!

19:30 – Dr. Jack Kruse says half truths turn into full lies and so they repeat them. First they deplete it with their processing of grains and stuff, and then they put all this stuff back or else it would be even more nutritionally deficient than it already is. So they can put something on the label. But what I’m saying is the entire industry is moving beyond the labels, where they are going to have the ability to see all of these rare earth minerals and higher order compounds, and they can report that in real time.

31:20 – It is a worldwide movement. Whether it originates in the USA and spreads elsewhere, or it originates abroad and comes to the US. This is the direction that the entire food supply is going. So like I say, it’s going to be unstoppable. Soon, because the technology is already been well underway, it’s not new, it’s more like about to go out of beta release into general release.

40:00 – That goes back to nutrition and toxins because when you don’t have the correct nutrition, your DNA can’t repair itself. The proteins can’t produce the right energy in the body and it can’t detoxify. So you increase the nutritional value of the stuff you’re eating and you will automatically be healthier. You can’t help it.

45:00 – “The Grand Unified Field Theory of Manifestation” ~ Randy Lee

51:15 – You need that whole cycle to really complete it and manifest in a powerful way. Like the law of attraction, they overly focus on just the positive because fear and love are polar opposites in love, it’s twice the energy level, it’s literally a faster wave form. So the reason why it works and is more powerful than fear is because it has twice as much opportunity to intersect with reality. But that’s where a lot of people get things wrong, focusing on one thing and not another.

I did want to mention people can donate to Dan Kittredge’s nonprofit, it’s tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law. I don’t have anything to do with their company, or their entity right now. But I’m kind of involved in ancillary way at this point.

The Real Food Wave Part 1

Scott Mulvaney — Sat, 11 Mar 2023 12:00:00 +0000

Entering The Real Food Wave, part 1, with Mito Man, Randy Lee:

Quote: Let food be thy medicine. ~ Hippocrates

Notes from our guest co-host:

I’ve got world-changing information to report. History is in the making.

In exploring what to tell people about Gut-Brain Secrets I came to the realization that most of world’s problems and opportunities are influenced by food quality (i.e., nutrient density and toxins).
The majority of the world’s problems go away when you restore food quality. Natural order is restored.
Even better, I discovered that solutions to the problem of food quality are not just forthcoming… they’re imminent. The technology is irrefutable.

So, by accident, I found a mind-blowing way to frame the book and discussion: It’s all about food quality. Explore this mind map to see what ¾ of Gut-Brain Secrets is about, and the movement for which I propose it be the introduction to…

00:30 – Introduction

06:50 – That health education is so important. You need to be able to understand where things fit, and how powerful they are. So you can selectively choose because you can’t do everything, it’s just impossible. You would go broke and insane. So you have to know where things fit in the priority and what you can and cannot do, and your children, for example, might put up with or not. You need to be able to explain why they’re doing it, give them some background on it. I think we all need to be our own health bosses, we need to take charge of our own health. So that requires education, a little proactivity, and definitely a little commitment.

09:50 – Years ago, I had a lot of friends with ADHD and autism, so I started researching gut brain Health and getting into Dr. Natasha Campbell McBride’s work and Donna Gates. At the time, it was fairly new material, gut and brain health, how gut dysbiosis and the microbiome that’s upset in some way, contributes to psychological disorders. I went down the rabbit hole and investigated all these different effects, the inputs and the outputs.

20:40 – Soybeans are horrible for your endocrine system. People are gonna hate me for saying this, but I heard one of my gurus that I listened to a lot, and recently, she said, basically, homosexuality and gender confusion has its source in upset hormone levels in the womb. Soybean is probably one of the biggest contributors to that.

31:00 – They’ve tested a lot different things, including hydroponic cropping. They’ve discovered that organic is generally no better in nutrient value than the average products on the shelf.

37:50 – These guys, the would be rulers of the world, they see this big pool, a river of something flowing by, and they they go, oh, there’s money flowing by or labor or energy or even a natural resource. Pretty soon they create a pipeline to their vaults, in their mansions. Before long they go, hey, we should dam up this river and control all the flow through it, and put taxes and regulations and certifications. All so they control every facet of society. That’s the systemic problem here in a nutshell, every single thing.

47:00 – We all want stuff to taste better. We’re fighting price and convenience, of course. We know that the alignment of everyone’s motivation is actually what I’m really excited about. Because all our motivations are going to be aligned in this process, from taste to personal interest. If we all realize what kind of health impacts are produced from nutrient poor foods, then we realize what the solution is, we understand what we need to do from that point forward. We can, through a marketing effort, align all those interests.

52:45 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

We are entering a new era of freedom and choice, where before we had none. We had to feed our energy into a broken system and when you feed your energy into a broken system, you reinforce it. Previously, we had no choice, there was only a few options in the food supply. We’re entering a new era where your food choice, you need to be more proactive and seek out the solutions and seek out the knowledge.

The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction
12:00 – It’s about being wholehearted, for me, it’s like my whole heart is in the coaching, I do not take it for granted. 15 years later, when people show up and whether they paid or their organization paid, they are giving me a part of themselves, often a part of themselves that they didn’t plan to give.
15:45 – I think one of the problems is we talk about being professional. There’s one part of it, and we could define us being dedicated to your work, being deliberate, giving it your best and showing up with dignity to whoever you’re with. I’ll say the right thing. I’ll do the right thing in the right way.
21:15 – This is also where I think lots of people go through an existential crisis, like, who am I? I don’t even know who I am. I don’t even know what matters to me. I don’t know. I mean, I know you’ve gone through different transitions. I don’t know if you’ve ever been into a place where you’ve gone like, I don’t even know who am I?
31:55 – I’ve seen a lot of people now draw elephants. But it’s that piece of how can we not make it a big scary thing? What’s the weigh in and then I often go first. I don’t go with a rehearsed story, I drop into something that is real and raw for me. This is so I role model it and so people feel it because you can feel in a room when someone’s being real and vulnerable and then usually someone else’s brave. As soon as one person in the team has gotten more vulnerable, then maybe not everyone, but pretty much everyone will go there.
45:00 – If it’s about you, it’s a problem. The thing is, other people’s reactions to us is never really about us. It’s about what they think we are and their thoughts about us. I keep coming back to the book the Four Agreements at this point.
52:56 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

I love just trust what comes, which for me, maybe that is the message. Trust what comes. I think get out of the way and just ask yourself, how could you show up and have a lot of fun adding a lot of impact. If it feels really hard and clunky and difficult and off, you’re probably not at your best. You’re probably not having the best impact and the biggest impact you could in the world. I do think you’re here to do the very most with whatever you were given in the bag of DNA and life experiences, etc. So it’s all about how can I have more fun adding more impact today? I think if people ask themselves a question like that every day, really great things will happen.

Why Carnivore vs Plant Toxins with Anthony Chaffee Part 2

Scott Mulvaney — Tue, 24 Jan 2023 13:00:00 +0000

Are Plant Toxins Killing You and Can The Carnivore Life Heal You?

Dr. Chaffee is an American medical doctor and Neurosurgical resident who, over a span of 20+ years, has researched the optimal nutrition for human performance and health. It is his assertion that most of the so-called chronic diseases we treat as doctors are caused by the food we eat, or don’t eat, and can be reversed with dietary changes to a species specific diet.

Quote: “It doesn’t matter how brilliant your theory is, and it doesn’t matter how smart you are. If it doesn’t agree with experiment, it’s wrong.” ~ Physicist Richard Feynman

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

10:30 – It was the most intense period of my life. Burma, there was some very crazy events, tension, and stress levels were always maxed out. It was in the middle of ISIS territory, I don’t think it was actually carved out as ISIS controls this, but they were very, very active in Bangladesh. Speaking to the locals there, they were telling me that they’re not only active, but they were supportive. They were supported by the local Imams and things like that.

22:00 – All of this data shows that if you’re metabolically healthy, you will do much, much better against things like COVID. I think that’s something that people can do, that they can affect in their own life. That is something that they can change, that they can affect, and they can take control their own health and their own destiny. A lot of diseases, even chronic disease, especially chronic diseases, are being shown to be metabolic issues. Metabolic issues are specifically brought about by not eating the right thing.

32:00 – On the topic of Fasting, from what I can see, all of the same benefits can be achieved just from being in that healthy metabolic state. You get the same Autophagy process where you clear your body of these senescence cells. You clear out those those pre cancer cells and all of those little half dead cells are working too well. So all of those benefits from fasting you get from just eating a proper diet, like the Carnivore Lifestyle because you’ll be in that metabolic state. There are a lot of studies with so called fasting mimicking diet, which is a ketogenic diet, and they find that it was really hard for people to fast. So I really don’t like it, you can do this by just getting in that healthy metabolic state.

40:30 – There are many people who made that same comment back in the early 80’s. They looked at other animals, because the argument was from all the experts at the time, they assumed that you had to eat carbs in order to burn carbs for getting biochemistry. That as soon as you stop eating carbs, you make carbs, so that’s what all of these people who supposedly took biochemistry assumed. Then we get into the topic of Gluconeogenesis.

51:15 – I don’t think we need supplements. I don’t think you need to take any of those things. If you think about what we eat for and what’s the purpose of eating. We’re trying to build and maintain animal structure, animal tissue, meat, right? So what by definition is going to have everything that we need, in the proportion that we need it, to build and maintain… MEAT aka a Carnivore Lifestyle.

01:02:40 – Plants don’t want to be eaten. You know, maybe their fruit, maybe they’d like that to get eaten. But even then, they want specific animals to eat them. They don’t want necessarily us to eat them. There are most fruits and berries that will kill you. If you go out into the wild, people that know about foraging, hunting, and survival out in the wild will tell you NOT to eat random red berries.

01:44:00 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

I think the main thing is we were having a lot of things come out, like Dr. Palmer’s book with the brain energy thing you’re looking at metabolic health. The last few years looking at the most people that were most affected were people that were metabolically unhealthy as well, finding out about, you know, cancer being linked to metabolism and the mitochondria. The main thing that you can do for your health and the health of your loved ones, and really just the happiness and sanctity of your life, is to look at your own metabolic health and try to take steps to become metabolically healthy.

I think that it fundamentally comes from what you eat, your metabolism is what you eat. You study biochemistry is really just the science of what we eat. And what happens when we eat certain things. The energy mobilization in your body, your metabolism is what you eat and so when you’re eating things that your body doesn’t really know how to use properly, you will damage your mitochondria. There are a lot of these toxins that we sort of touched on, but didn’t go into too much detail. But a lot of these plant toxins really damage your mitochondria, and just running on carbohydrates, damages and suppresses the function and expression of your mitochondria. So you make less of them. They’re suppressed in number as well as function.

So there are certain things and you can call them hacks, and you can call them whatever you want. But there are certain things that increase the efficacy of your mitochondria, map metabolism and the number. So there are certain things people can look into. This is all available on PubMed, Google Scholar, all these sorts of things. Take a look, see what is actually good for your mitochondria? I’m sure there’ll be other things mixed in there like, oh, this chemical and broccoli seems to help whatever. Okay, but what are the 150,000 other chemicals and what are they doing? Are those healthy as well? Are those contributing? Or are they diminishing from your metabolic and mitochondrial health. So I think that metabolic health is just the most important thing, it is what will keep you healthy, and it keeps you healthy longer. It will help you weather all sorts of different infections and it will prevent you from getting chronic diseases in the first place.

I don’t think that these so called chronic diseases like autoimmune issues like heart disease, even Cancer, and Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and diabetes, I don’t think these are diseases, they’re non-communicable. They didn’t exist 100 years ago, in any real numbers. These are coming from eating the wrong thing. They are damaging our mitochondria, they are damaging our metabolism. They are presenting themselves in these weird and horrible ways and they don’t need to exist if you take care of your metabolic health.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

06:15 – In my second book, the seven keys to tap into the wealth inside you. The first chapter is called eat your broccoli. It talks about how you cannot pour from an empty cup, if you’re not healthy, how are you going to help other people? You have to work out, you have to handle your mental hygiene, you have to do these things. Otherwise, you’re gonna be a burnout, and then you’re not good to anybody.

13:20 – So I got in trouble on the Dr. Drew show with that exact question. I am pro cannabis. He was anti cannabis. So we had a huge debate going on. Yeah, it’s interesting. To debate with him, was a whole other level.

20:35 – You have to keep in mind, it is the same thing with diabetes, it is the people that create the problem, then offer the solution to the problem. So they make money on the front end and money on the back end. So you’ve got the people pumping out Opioid’s, they get addicted to this, you get the person addicted to it, boom, here’s your solution afterwards too. You know, here’s a doughnut, let’s get you addicted to sugar, and then let’s of course give you that product to fix the ship.

31:00 – So all of a sudden it is also food and alcohol. So what happens is people get addicted. They start off with the easily available cupcake and then it’s oh no, this weekend I got so and so’s birthday too. So then I’ll just have two cupcakes. Next thing you know, you’re eating cupcakes all of the time, and you don’t know how you got there. It’s the same thing with drugs and alcohol. It starts off in moderation. I’ll have a little and next thing you know, it’s uh oh! During the VID we produced so many alcoholics over COOFID because people were locked in their house. We went up to one in five people became addicted here in the USA.

41:40 – The success stories are why I do this. I still have clients that call me. I’ve been doing this work 27 years, and I still have clients that call me and say, hey, I’m sober 15 years, I got 20 years, you know, I’m married and I have kids, I have this amazing job, I created this company. So that’s very cool. It’s very rewarding to hear you said something or did something and sometimes it’s not even a client. It’s neat to be able to do this kind of work, and not know who you’re affecting, or how many people you’re affecting, and how well they’re actually doing with it.

45:45 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

There are people who do what they do, they take a break and go to an inpatient rehab for 30 days, and they reset, but then they come out and go right back to what they were doing at the level they were at before they reset. Inpatient treatment has 95% fail rate, you can easily look that up. So we go in and we said, let’s learn how to live in that environment that you’re functioning at, in regards to that high level, but let’s also get some work life balance. That’s what’s wrong, with regards to that theme of work, work, work. You’re going to get, 10 stickers and a couple eight balls of coke just to calm down. That’s no good for you, because that’s not calming down. That’s their idea of relaxation and then I come in, and I’m like, alright, let’s kind of fix that. Figure out what your stressors are. Lower your stressors, if we lower your stressors, you’re gonna lower your use so you’re not chomping at the bit to get away from work and the wife and the kids and the dog and then her parents and your parents and whatever else is going on.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

02:15 – I was already committed to doing humanitarian work in Bangladesh and volunteering in the refugee camps. There was the largest humanitarian crisis in the world at the time and it was in Bangladesh. I don’t know that everyone’s heard of it. But there was a mass genocide in Burma in September 2017. About 200,000 people were killed in a Holocaust level of evil ways. About a million people fled into Bangladesh, Southern Bangladesh from Burma to escape this and so there wasn’t really enough people helping out. So I felt that I needed to go over and help. So I gave up on on playing professional Rugby that season to go go help out.

16:20 – I sort of had my eyes open before I went there. I expected it to be really bad and I figured there was like a 50/50 chance I wasn’t coming back. But I felt that it was worth it to do that. You know, I never fooled myself about about the realities of the Third World. But seeing it in person and seeing people just live like that, it obviously makes it very, very real. Understanding things and then seeing them for yourself are two very, very different things. It definitely gives you a broader understanding of humanity in the world in general. So I’m very grateful for that.

23:30 – I would hope that they would find it distasteful to do that to anyone. So the women basically stayed pregnant as often as possible because they would be less likely to be raped to be pregnant. So there was one lady that I met and saw the scars to prove it, she was being detained by the Burmese military and she was being gang raped for the whole day. She was just begging them, she had a very young baby, and she was begging them, please let me go. Please let me go, I need to feed my baby. I have to feed my baby, she’s hungry. I have to feed her please let me go, please let me go feed my baby. And so eventually they did, but they cut her nipples off.

32:00 – Macroaggressions vs Microaggressions. That always struck me as a sign of a blessing of our civilization. If you have time to worry about microaggressions you live a blessed life and things are really good for you vs a culture living with macroaggressions.

45:40 – I think it comes from word of mouth, people actually living the life and having these benefits and having these visible, tangible results. Just being an example, when I first got here, it was very big vegan movement. Everyone was really convinced of that, that just vegan was the way to go. So I come in here and I’m the only human being in Perth and probably most of Australia, who advocated for this sort of thing.

54:15 – Yeah I do not consume lactose as well. That will raise your insulin and when you raise your insulin, your hyperinsulinemia causes a lot of biochemical changes in your body. They are canges that you don’t necessarily want and it derails your metabolism. It slows your metabolism. It puts you into a fat storage metabolism as opposed to a fat burning metabolism. There are actual studies with actual science that show that people just on a ketogenic diet and are in actual ketosis, their basal metabolic rate is on average 300 kilocalories higher than someone else who’s eating carbohydrates.

01:07:00 – I was a professional athlete, I played professional rugby for 10 years before medical school. Five of those years, I was carnivore, and I was not eating anything else. Those were the best, most explosive and dominant dynamic, athletic years of my entire life. I could not get tired, I couldn’t run out of energy, I couldn’t get sore, I just could go, go, go. The harder I pushed myself, the more my body gave me. I was able to push myself harder, but I also got more out of it, my body recovered and rebuilt stronger than it would have otherwise. So my performance and my athleticism, they were on a logarithmic scale as opposed to a geometric one.

01:21:00 – Are you open to doing a second podcast episode? Yeah, 100%, it’s important that we get into this content deeper. I wanted today’s episode to get to know you. But also I want my listeners, until we can do a second show, to just know you better. Plus make sure you subscribe to Anthony’s podcast, the Plant Free MD.

01:40:00 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

This is the medical world, the pharmaceutical world, and everything is tied back to the nutritional world. God forbid, you cure yourself naturally. Now, they can make money off of your unhealthy lifestyle choices. Where they can’t sell you the poison, they can then subsequently sell you the cure. Whether that’s intentional or not, that is what’s happening. We’re poisoning ourselves. We’re damaging our bodies and it is worth a lot of money. We’re taking medications to then mitigate those those problems. So this was the neurologist saying this and that is in the literature. This guy was recognizing that this is actually something that removes triggers for seizures. It will work but if you stop it, it will stop working.

I Am The One and Cancer Advocacy

Scott Mulvaney — Thu, 01 Dec 2022 14:45:00 +0000

Learn To Advocate For Yourself with “I Am The One” Author, Viki Zarkin:

Viki Zarkin is the only person alive with this aggressive form of Stage 4 metastatic cancer for over 11 years. She was diagnosed in her 40’s when her doctor first told her to go home and get her affairs in order. At the time, she had two small children at home and was running her husband’s dental practice. Viki spent the next several years fighting for her life, advocating for herself and navigating through the healthcare world, and following her gut. Now,

“I really am the luckiest girl around. But I just happen to have Cancer.” ~ Viki Zarkin

Viki is a beacon of hope as a national motivational speaker, coach, and author of I Am the One. She inspires women to change the way we have been programmed to think and emphasizes the importance of starting with young women on how to believe in themselves, challenge the status quo, find their voices, and listen to their hearts. Viki’s can-do attitude inspires people to think differently in their everyday lives; by applying her unique thought process, deals can be made in a boardroom just as easily as they can help people through their cancer battle.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

09:40 – I’m wholeheartedly aligned with you. I understand where you’re going with that. Do you know that women’s healthcare today has been cut back so severely that we don’t get any of the same procedures afforded us even as much as five years ago?!

20:00 – So find the professionals get the second, third or fourth opinion till you find the professional to your point, who is the different color crayon in the box that DOES care to do their own analysis, their own research. They do exist and I’ve now met lots of them, and I do mean a lot. I left in the middle of the night, after my mammogram, in a hospital gown flying open, as my mother and my husband wheeled me down the hall running for our lives!

30:20 – It comes back to your advocacy for yourself, do it for yourself, and so on. If it’s you just make it organic, I’m not talking about food, I’m just talking about your life choices can become organic, and you make it matter.

37:10 – You don’t necessarily have to listen to me. But when you do have a near death experience, it does give you insight, it truly does something that no others have. When you learn, when you drop into the abyss, and you personally are responsible for lifting yourself out. How can you not share that knowledge with others? How can you not be responsible for the other lives and the knowledge that you now have been given by God? I don’t say it in a religious tone, I say it in a spiritual tone. Because it’s a gift and it’s what you do with that gift.

42:55 – So I think that we want to clarify that a little space. Because not everybody has to be an adrenaline junkie to submit to faith or to risk or to not be scared. Just because you choose not to break every bone in your body doesn’t mean you were scared to do that. But what it does mean to you, then choose your poison. Don’t go through life without risk, find whatever that risk might be to you. Like I said, for somebody, it could be overcoming an agoraphobic condition, it could be literally stepping that foot out the door.

56:30 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

I have this really crazy motto that I made up. I like models. When I first got sick, I said it came through, it was born out of truth. It was born out of my own honesty. What I said was, you know, I really am the luckiest girl around. But I just happen to have Cancer. That’s it. Why? Why does one have to take from the other? All right. I’m just me and all of the parts of me. I’m very lucky to be who I am.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

10:30 – I’ve actually played around with different processes, I’ve done dehydrate, like, basically hydrated than dehydrated down to the time of my show. It’s been so tight that I’ve tried to lick the water off my toothbrush on that Friday before the show. I know that there are ways of not cutting your water, like this last show, that I did it for.

20:00 – If you actually know what your body fat percent is, that will also play into getting that number into you. A lot of the times I’ll find that people are not as active, they’re not as conditioned. That’s a big key in deciding where your calories are, the more conditioned you are changes that process.

27:30 – So let’s talk about the muscle, if you don’t strength train your muscles, it’s just like going you’re not using it. It’s going to slowly decrease in strength in size. So it’s a muscle that changes size. So the bigger it is, the stronger can be the more blood flow to the to the muscle you get and that it’s hungry. So if you look at my body fat and my muscle, it is a certain percent. You can take somebody else with the same weight, but just a different composition, and maybe they have less muscle mass. I will require more calories, because my I have more muscle to feed. So if you just kind of let that go, you’ll see, like my own BMR is so low. I don’t want to just eat 1200 calories. If you get to increase your muscle size, you’ll also see a correlation with your BMR to go like going up very nice.

38:00 – I’m putting out another book. Actually, my nine year old daughter’s gonna help me write it because I want to help parents with their kids nutrition. She’s nine and she’s very passionate about writing, and eating healthy. All of my kids are but they’re still kids. But you know, we’re still teaching them to look at the labels that you need to know.

55:00 – Digging in to shopping tips and nutrition as we close out the show.

01:03:55 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

I talk about act as if… , and you need to finish that act as if, you know, I was put into a couple of different situations where I didn’t think I didn’t want to land there. But I was there and now I had two decisions I either needed to just kind of feel bad for myself and just kind of like, alright, just throw in the towel, or I need to act as if I know what I’m doing and just get out. That was my point of acting as if we’re going to be in situations where you feel unfit. You’re going to be in a situation where you don’t feel like you’re fit enough to start eating healthy. Or you’re not in the right spot to start taking care of yourself or even to just do some activity. You’ll always feel that way. There’s not going to be a perfect time but you need to act as if that you give a damn, you’re going to need to act as if you can do it. Even though you might not be able to, and that’s my biggest message. It is if you start acting, you’ll start believing, you’ll start doing, and then you’ll be able to celebrate all your accomplishments.

Local Businesses Working Together With Localverse

Scott Mulvaney — Thu, 27 Oct 2022 11:00:00 +0000

Introducing Localverse, Everyone Powerful:

You’re invited to witness it all (and participate) as Localverse grows. It’s an open collaboration with an open business model:

‘Our vision is… everyoneᐝpowerful’

We create ideas and inventions, you make the profits. And kick back some so Localverse keeps going.

If you’ve realized how:

Everyday people and local businesses can solve the world’s big problems, with the proper tools…
How with automation moving homeward, we can help to spark a local renaissance…

Then you’re in good company. Be sure to contact Marino and let’s start to grow the tribe for Localverse.

Quote: “Don’t undertake a project unless it is manifestly important and nearly impossible” — Edwin H. Land

Marino is helping create Localverse, a company that aims for local business ownership to swarm the planet. Look around. Imagine that everything in sight is locally made, including all parts of the device you’re listening to us on. And, better made. That’s what Localverse aims for. Yet this is an open collaboration. It’s about ‘we’. Want in? Then contact Marino and let’s start to grow the tribe for Localverse.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

14:00 – If I compare it to a local business, let’s say they have they found a problem, it’s making people sick, or it’s harming people in some way. Maybe it’s not even making them sick, but they know it could harm people. Let’s say it will cost them five cents to deal with it and then they’re like, okay, yeah, we got to get rid of this. We’ll eat the five cents. So when you take a multinational company doing the same decision, now we’re talking about those five cents adding up to millions, maybe even hundreds of millions dollars. Now that decision is much bigger and we’ve seen companies do this, well, you know, screw it, people may get sick, they could sue us, and we’ll still make more profit than there anyway.

21:00 – People who see the vision and the mission and believe, that’s why they join. When they start profiting, then other people are going to start joining it, because they’re going to be looking at the way they’ve pulled out their hair, trying to figure stuff out and do business. It’s a lot more smoother and that’s not available when you’re closed and isolated, working on your business alone.

31:45 – I believe there’s a natural incentive, people like doing that, people love sharing information. But if there’s an added incentive, if you become part of the profit, you’ll like it, that’d be part of the platform. Everything is traced, all ideas, and all suggestions are traced to the people.

40:25 – In regards to mutual alignment, no political and religious discussions, because they do derail things. But you did bring up something important, I want to say that I’m thinking ahead on, we want Localverse to have a first major milestone goal, which is to help boost the world to a billion founders and owners and not just businesses. Whether it’s a non-profit or whatever, the whole thing is local which is the lifeblood of the economy. I want people to understand why, I’m very obsessive compulsive about finding the mechanism of things, why do things work? It’s important to envision how things are going to end up, I like to find real mechanisms that you could follow all the way to the end.

54:35 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

A lot of people are afraid of the error. I was too many years ago and it’s like you know what, Scott? Sooner or later if you want to change your life, you got to start putting the reps in and you’re gonna have a bad rep once in a while. It is what it is, so you go back to the drawing board, refocus work on your form, your technique, and then go at it again. Heck, go a different route, change directions, it’s about your habits of thinking.

Healing with Scalar Light Energy with Tom Paladino

Scott Mulvaney — Tue, 18 Oct 2022 11:00:00 +0000

Health and Healing Topics Around Scalar Light:

Tom Paladino is a researcher and humanitarian seeking to make a difference in the world by providing people with the education and tools to restore optimal health, and by helping enhance their quality of life.

Tom began research with Scalar Energy after developing a deep admiration for the father of Scalar Energy research, Nikola Tesla. He was also able to study the work of an inventor, Hieronymus, who continued research on Scalar Energy. Hieronymus’ major contributions included unbinding the RNA/ DNA bonds of microbes plaguing the agricultural industry.

QUOTE: “The Truth will set you free”

The existence of such energy not found within the electromagnetic spectrum fascinated Tom. Inspired by these findings, he pursued a course of study seeking to better understand and subsequently harness Scalar Energy, through the development of an instrument called “Scalar Light” which utilizes free energy from the stars.

00:30 – Introduction

10:28 – Tesla began his career with AC electricity when he garnered the attention of Westinghouse, Morgan, and the power, the power brokers, and they wanted to pick his brain so that they could use this technology to make money. They wanted industry. Later in his career, Tesla started developing Skinner energy towers, one in Long Island, New York, that tapped the stars, the universe for free energy. When the power brokers when the robber barons caught wind of debt, Tesla was capturing star energy, free energy. But then a smear campaign began…

20:15 – If we’re if the universe was devoid of scalar energy, the universe would cease to exist.

30:15 – So if I use this energy field, that quantum field by way of a photograph the herpes virus and identify that in my quantum field, this photograph with the herpes virus would destroy herpes in me, okay? It’s all done by way of energy recognition. So I have photographs, 1000s of photographs of microbes, and I simply instruct those photographs, that of microbes to identify microbes and people and destroy them.

41:20 – Can scalar light be used in a negative way? Not that I’ve experienced with my instruments now. Now Tesla theorized that this energy was so powerful that someday somebody could use it for weaponry as a pulsation of energy.

44:35 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

We have agents around the world on on three continents helping us promote this work and at least presenting it to a wide audience. It takes time. Yes, people have never heard of this as if it has never been done before. Perhaps with the exception of Hieronymus and Tesla but much of their work is obscured or has been undermined. So we have to start over as well.

Remember, Tesla did not have the internet. He was systematically undermined, because obviously the Rockefellers controlled the media back then, as they do today. But at least we have this undercurrent of movement, like having a podcast of people, like you, who are not beholden to the Rockefellers.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

11:40 – Seven years ago, almost to the date, is when I founded the company. Brian Bogert companies, if you will, which was just coaching and speaking at the time, there were no courses, there weren’t group coaching, there wasn’t any of these other ancillary businesses that are supporting our mission. But five years, I ran it side by side with another business. So I was in the risk management world and benefits consulting business for about 15 years, the last 10, of which my partners and I scaled the business from nothing to over 15 million in revenue in that period. It was great, and it was fun, but so much of that didn’t align with who I was and who I was becoming.

20:00 – You are gonna burn out , I’m going to burn out my body, the body will fail. So we’re sitting there holding it and we may start out thinking we’re really strong and it’s good, right? Yeah, but then the burning starts to happen, then the weight happens. Those weights get heavier and heavier and heavier, guess what, our armor is the same way. We put it there thinking it’s protecting us. But it actually gets heavier, the longer we carry it and it starts to incrementally crush us over time. So that’s the second thing that armor does to us, physically, emotionally, and mentally.

30:00 – I find myself being able to connect even deeper, the more I continue to evolve myself, there is no final destination only constant evolution itself. So what I can absolutely definitively say is that there was a massive shift, probably two years into my coaching business, because that’s around the time that I really started to understand emotion a lot deeper.

39:00 -So the aha moment was probably six to seven years ago. My daughter was young. We were playing, we were laughing sounds and we lay down on the couch, and she wraps her arm around my neck, and she kisses me on the cheek. She says, I love you dada. I then broke down in tears of joy and I am not somebody that cries, but it’s because I conditioned it out of myself. I want to be really clear, men who have the ability to cry and can express emotion, I think, is one of the most powerful moving things to be apart of. It’s nothing that I believe carries any shame. It’s just not how I have learned to feel emotion. But what’s cool is I’m starting to learn how to feel that in that way, but when I felt joy that way, I realized I had never experienced joy to that capacity before.

58:00 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

We’re on a mission to impact a billion lives as quickly as possible. And for us, that means by reducing the level of suffering that exists on this planet, and that happened through a whole bunch of different vehicles. If anything resonated with you, and you decide to follow on social or jumped in, if you follow on social, Brian Bogert on any channel, truly, legitimately, I don’t care about the vanity metrics. But if something moves you, I just asked you to move through the world. If you’re sitting next to somebody, you’re like, Oh, this is cool.

But if that’s not something that you want to do, don’t feel pressure, but show it to somebody next to you. What I’ve known through all this time is that move people move people. And so I’m asking as many people to move others and move themselves so that we can have a collective impact as quickly as possible. The other thing that they could do, if they’re interested in there, that five to 10%, we do have a free course. And it’s something that we put a lot of time energy and effort into No Limits prelude.com I don’t think it I don’t think there is access on either one of those ones directly. Okay. I understand the marketing flaw and a whole lot of that. But here’s why I say this. The reason we distribute it, we publish it out, and the way that we do is I want to give full disclosure so that you understand what you’re getting, you get over 30 minutes of video content, the first chapter of our course, which let you begin with the end in mind. And here’s the deal. Yep, I get your email in exchange for it. Yep, you’re gonna get some emails through the process of doing it. And yep, you’re gonna get four emails from us after your complete, to outline other opportunities to help you on your journey, whether it’s with us or not. So this is completely free. And I want to let you know all those expectations because this is not about getting you into a forever funnel and spamming you in perpetuity, just to figure out where and how we can move you so you can move others, but this is this is something that will add value into your lives. And I just hope that something we’ve said today moved something inside of each one and everyone knew.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

09:25 – I know a lot of people overthink it, and then because they overthink it, they end up really stalled with paralysis by analysis. So I’ve got to do this, go do that, I haven’t got time for this. I’m gonna, you know, start next month and I think that’s it is very simple and the thing that I think people want to do before anything, and I’ve been doing it since I was a junior bodybuilder, sort of 16-17 years old and I’ve been I’m 52 now. So I’ve been doing it for all my life pretty consistently, I’m a little bit of an anomaly. But I think for the average person that hasn’t done that consistently for years and years and years, then really, the most important thing that you need to focus on is creating a habit, where you’re gonna fit some kind of activity, or movement into your life. I’ve not actually met any people that have not been able to create a habit of cleaning their teeth, at least in the morning, and when they get up and before they go to bed in an evening.

20:30 – For whatever reason, everybody is obsessed, relationships break down for it, everything is really driven about people’s desire for money, what they think money is going to give them.

31:00 – We’ve got a pretty decent process and we’re predominantly business to business. So we work with a lot of gyms trainers, we we have a small part which is direct to consumer, but predominantly, it’s going into clubs. Most of that gives us the ability to plan out a little bit further than people who kind of want to just purchase things immediately.

35:00 – I never thought I’d ever get into unofficially designing my own space. I mean, to be fair, actually, I love the fact you guys actually do design services, which is super cool.

40:00 – You got yoga combined with spinning, boxing, etc. So you got to think of how you’re going to really differentiate yourself. There’s a lot of ways that you can do that, obviously. But a lot of people react to the simple things, I used to be a boxer, and I like boxing, and I know some friends do too, etc. So I’m going to open a boxing gym but then what.

48:22 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

I’ll just remind them of what I said at the beginning. I suppose you think that there’ll be a time where you’ll figure out how to make health and fitness important in your life. I’ve interviewed probably two or three-hundred very successful people in all areas, not just fitness, but in many different areas in business and I think consistently the one thing that that really separates those from anyone else is just finding where that fits into your life. But putting it before everything else in your hierarchy of things to do, stick fitness at the top. I think if you can make that a habit then you’ll find that dealing with all the other stuff that life throws at you on a regular basis including preventing yourself from getting totally destroyed from whatever pandemic happens and everything else that is out there, you won’t go far wrong.

Attain Self-Mastery and Life Optimization

Scott Mulvaney — Wed, 03 Aug 2022 13:00:00 +0000

A Clean Burning FUEL Source to Attain Self-Mastery and Life Optimization:

Wylie McGraw is a former star athlete, competitive bull rider, and 3-tour combat veteran.

It was through those intense experiences that he discovered his crazy superpower of being able to expose blind spots, erupt & eradicate stress, and fully unleash the untapped potential of high achievers.

He’s the founder of Radical Performance Acceleration and for well over a decade now he’s been behind-the-scenes doing life-altering work with powerful CEOs, Entrepreneurs, Leaders, and Public Figures accelerating their performance both personally and professionally.

His work is the proverbial “Navy SEAL Training” equivalent to high performance and leadership development – pushing even the elite beyond their limits so they not only hit their peak but sustain it.

Wylie’s formal title is Performance Accelerator. He has been named a “secret weapon” by some of the most influential leaders across industries from Wall St., Hollywood, Professional Sports, Fortune 500 companies, Personal Development, and everything in between.

His work is about giving an elite edge to high achieving individuals while ending their cycle of stress, sacrifice, and suffering that’s unfortunately associated when reaching their levels of accomplishment and success.

When Wylie’s not traveling the country to meet his clients, this family man enjoys skydiving, mountain top sunsets, and occasionally sipping on an 18-year-old single malt scotch pondering the philosophies of life, the cosmos, and beyond.

Quote: “An optimized leader advances the world, an unresolved one distorts it.”

Today’s Top 3 Takeaways:

We must be putting ourselves in the most uncomfortable positions.
I would never put a lower octane FUEL into a high-end sports car.
It’s time for you to step into a place of what it takes to be optimized.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

09:00 – You’ve got to understand that there’s more freedom in skydiving, despite the dangers, despite what you might think of it, then there is actually been. I would say someone with a death wish, if we had a death wish we wouldn’t wear gear. So at the end of the day, I tell people that it’s more dangerous to drive a car down the road than it is to jump out of an airplane. I have literally two parachutes in my system for a reason, because I enjoy my life. I’m going to the fullest possible edges of my limitations myself and want to see how far I can really stretch beyond that. So that’s why I do it.

20:00 – As I got older, I totally knew this is not where I really want to go, I didn’t feel fulfilled in the sport. The world of bull riding came knocking through contacts that I had made. It enticed me and it pulled me in and I found a new side of me being ignited that I had been waiting to meet all along. That’s where I realized that I was yielding to the fears of the unknown that bull riding was providing me. That turned me on to the idea and understanding that the only way you’re really going to stretch who you are, and see what you’re truly capable of, is when you’re putting yourself in the most uncomfortable positions. They must challenge you and radically stretch what your thinking is, what your feeling is, and what you expect to be showing up for you. That’s where you go beyond your limits.

31:00 – In my life experiences those intense life experiences, I discovered my own unique superpower, if you will, to expose those blind spots and to erupt that stress. It’s just a an aspect of my fabric of being who I am, when I’m grounded, and in the presence of someone, they cannot hold on to the stresses that are underlying in and underneath the surface. So it just starts to naturally come up and what I’m able to do with that is I’m able to poke at those and point at them and battle them head on with the people that I’m working with, so that we can actually eradicate them. Because the idea that our past life experiences, you’re right, you can’t do anything about having them. However, you can, in fact, resolve the negative impact and stress that those experiences provided you.

40:00 – Your mind believes that some, by pulling away from this podcast, that the people that are following you and listening to you somehow are going to have their own reaction to that and it’s going to be negative and something’s not going to be right, and people are going to be mad at you. There’s going to be this feeling of like I’m not fulfilling, what I say I’m going to fulfill in reality is that people in fact, need time to absorb so much information that you probably have provided them.

52:00 – Oh, my goodness, you said a couple of things that I want to I really touch on. You’re right, the dynamic between you and your wife had a massive impact on your ability to succeed to the level you are now, here’s why. What ended up happening was, if she dumped you, as you said, what she did was she broke the energy between you two, she pulled away because it wasn’t working with the way that you were operating with each other. So she had to pull herself out of the equation to radically shake you up. So that you can destress if you will, or resolve whatever is going on, shift your focus, shift your mindset and really approach things from a different way of looking at life. That’s why it naturally then came back together. Here’s the reason why people don’t want to do that, is because they’re afraid of facing that kind of truth. They are afraid of how uncomfortable that will actually be to do something so radical, indifferent.

60:00 – I would never put a lower octane FUEL into this sports car, this cars designed to do at 91 or 93 or higher octane. He goes and he gets a 93 because he lives in the south. It’s akin to you putting in bad FUEL into a high level sports car and expecting it to perform at the top of its game every time, i.e. who you are in your performance. Listen to this, folks, it’s like, if you feel and believe that you’re gonna go out and crush your goals and accomplish the highest levels of success possible with all of the stresses that you have still held on to that you have not addressed head on. It’s the same thing as you having that Maserati and putting it in drive while the parking brake is still on, then stepping on the gas and think you’re not going to break that machine. People don’t, they don’t get that. They think, well, I’ll just keep adding in more strategy and more processes and more systems. But they are not going to ultimately succeed. You’re not going to optimize who you are, they’re going to give you some momentum, they’re going to create some structure for you. But when it comes to human performance, acceleration, life in business optimization, it goes far beyond the helping field, it’s time for you to step into a place of what it takes to be optimized.

01:14:40 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

I know the people that are listening are high achievers, you don’t attract people that are not to listen to this type of show. They are aware of the stresses that they’re holding on to, despite what might be in the public persona that they portray. But getting real with yourself when you’re by yourself and feeling into what is it that I have not looked at or addressed head on. When you can get real with that and you can give yourself that permission to find a resource that you can’t control that challenges you, those stresses can be resolved. You’ll find that your power, your potential, will be unleashed in ways you least expect it, you’ll find that your efforts, the work that you put into what you’re looking to create, will in fact, become exponential and highly sustainable.

I want people to walk away from this, listening to that point and go, you know what, let me just get real with myself. Let me be vulnerable with myself and stop BS’ing myself and realize that I don’t need to keep adding in more strategy. I need to start looking at how to remove things that are holding me back. Let me look at my dynamics in my life that aren’t operating, and uplifting me to my highest potential. Let me face some truths that might be otherwise uncomfortable or something I’ve avoided and actually do something about that. Because when you do face, like you talked about with your wife, when you broke that dynamic, it transformed your relationship and it transformed your success. You didn’t have to add more into your life to figure that out. That’s what I want people to walk away with.

A Survivor’s Method To Risk-Taking Through Radical Change

Scott Mulvaney — Tue, 19 Jul 2022 05:30:00 +0000

Burned Bridges Lead To Better Roads:

Shari Sanahi is the author of the book, “Burned Bridges Leads To Better Roads: A Survivor’s Method To Risk-Taking Through Radical Change.”

Shari is a first-generation Guyanese-American author born in Atlantic City, New Jersey, and currently resides in Los Angeles, California. She has spent most of her life teaching others about Guyana’s location and culture to those who cross her path. Guyana, a country located in South America, is comprised of 6 different races: Indigenous, East Indian, African, Portuguese, European and Chinese.

She was published in the zine from New Zealand titled “Phantom Billstickers, which can be purchased on Amazon.

Quote: “Some people choose to suffer for greatness, and some choose to suffer because they feel greatness escapes them.”

Shari’s Bio Continued:

Shari obtained a B.A. in Biology from Stockton University in 2011. In 2008, she took on an immense love for boxing and padwork training. In 2012, Shari began her training at Commando Krav Maga and Diamond Mixed Martial Arts Academy, a Muay Thai, Krav Maga, and Jiu-Jitsu studio located in Philadelphia.
When she moved to Los Angeles, she later became a boxing instructor at Title Boxing. Before taking an initial cross country road trip which she completed in 3 days, Shari obtained her 200-hour Power Yoga certification from Grace and Glory Yoga, located in New Jersey, in 2017.

After getting an initial taste of Los Angeles, she fell so in-love with the city that she decided to take a one-way-flight with no set place to stay to truly find her way after taking a break for one month. This journey had to be undertaken to complete her first book, which would lay the groundwork and foundation she had been searching for all of her life. Trauma and a difficult upbringing created a pretty unsteady foundation. Her recently published book creates a road map that got her onto better roads, and she hopes to help people from all walks of life walk on better roads as a result of reading her book.

Along with yoga and boxing, she was able to complete two 10-day Vipassana meditation retreats at S.N. Goenka’s meditation center in Shelburne Falls, MA. These modalities helped her to understand the importance of discipline that helped to create this book, and also were modalities which helped her to heal emotionally and physically.

Today’s Top 3 Takeaways:

No Risks = No Story!

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

06:50 – I took the gift of being all or nothing to say, you know what, it’s not a bad trait. It’s not some people call you got to be more great or, you’re too black and white. It’s don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater, all these different things, but some people you have, there’s a certain wiring for a reason.

23:00 – Oh, from the outside looking in, or I’m very much the same. I like real, because I’ve been through so much in my life. So what I like to hear those stories of like rags to riches or so for me, it’s a viewer. I also like to know what made people tick, because how could you, how can I put this I myself, but I’m doing things I don’t want to be upset about stuff. I want to be like, it’s music, it’s with movies, like I want something real and passionate. Whoa, that was so heavy. You can’t fake that. So it’s feeling and seeing how I feel, just because it’s how I really felt some type of way to write the book.

31:30 – I’m gonna give you a very surface fact. So at 12 years old, I was already smoking cigarettes, at 13 years old I was already drinking and liked going and hanging out with friends. You know, going into parents liquor cabinets, and let’s take this gin, blah-blah-blah. At 14 years old, okay, this person or not found marijuana, so we’re gonna smoke formaldehyde too.

42:35 – What are you willing to suffer? I was willing to, I rather suffered. We all have pain, right? I say some choose to suffer for greatness and some people choose to suffer because they feel great. This is escape. So I said, listen, this thing’s gonna hurt. I don’t know what the hell I’m doing. I don’t know how I’m going to figure it out. But I would rather suffer this pain. That’s where the risk taking comes in, no risk, no story, no all-in, no story.

55:20 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

Well, it’s like I said, it’s just one step at a time realizing that everybody’s on different timelines. Regardless of where you were on your journey, it’s just everybody goes through the phase to see beyond the surface. So people see me too, okay. So you just happen to be right there. So seeing beyond the surface, understanding that we’re all connected, we all have a brain and a heart, we’ve all been through things. But you don’t have to stick their turn, the trauma worked through, I gave a lot of tools in the book to work through to turn that coal into a diamond.

Then maybe it’s on an author, maybe it’s it’s a singer, maybe you’re a CEO of your own company, whatever it is, there’s so many different dynamics as to how to convert that diamond. But you just have to keep working and you can’t let hard work scare you. You just got to know that it’s really not about the level of intelligence, it’s about how bad do you want something? How bad do you want to change your life? You really have to be sold on that idea. Like, if I give up, is the regret of giving up worth it? Wondering what could have been if I don’t do this work.

You know, like I mentioned, I stopped drinking for four years, clearly this way of life isn’t serving me anymore. I said, if I don’t do this, if I don’t make the sacrifice, what’s the other reality going to look like? What’s that going to make me stuck with? There is a level of dramatics with it. But you have to feel that I wasn’t a cold hearted person writing, I had to feel a level of discomfort and I’m tired of this entirety this way. I had to feel to the depths of my beat with every fiber of my being and wouldn’t that when you don’t drink, you’re going to feel and it’s not always going to feel nice, you know, especially with my history and things like that.

But I was like, you know what, I would rather endure this pain than that kind of pain, that’s picking pains. What’s your pain point? Then saying and realizing that there’s never mistakes, there’s just lessons and to just keep having faith in yourself. Knowing that there’s a greater picture, the details are one thing like all the evidence that we both got to do. Those are the little details, but keep going back to all of that little stuff to get to the bigger picture. Who are you helping before you leave this world? Whose life can you change before you leave this world? What do you know and how can you show somebody? What could really be done? Maybe they don’t have anybody else that can bring that out of them? That’s what it’s about.

00:30 – Introduction

06:15 – I worked for three years for somebody, but I knew from day one that I wanted to be self-employed. So I was working inside a franchise company and I became like a very high paid salesperson very quickly, I figured out like, you know, relationship and you know, how to be you know, drive result because I was, again always into goals and, you know, discipline and self-motivation.

10:55 – Now, there’s the book theory of running a business and then there’s real world. The example I always give is, look, I can tell you what it’s like to ride a bike, since you’re a cyclist, right? I can tell you what you’re going to do mechanically. But until you sit on a bike and feel what it feels like to balance a bike underneath you, you can’t really understand what it feels like to ride a bike.

20:25 – I will first backup to say. If I stopped growing, how can I be one of America’s top consultants? That’s ridiculous. So yeah, I reached the pinnacle of what I do as a franchise consultant years ago, but my friends are like, no moss grows on your drink. So I’m gonna say I peaked at 40 and then I never dared take a chance or do anything different?! So no, what I did was, I wasn’t able to then turn to mentors inside my industry. But I found mentors outside of my industry, I found people who were creating wealth, in ways different than what I was using, real estate syndication, using infinite banking policies, using storage, using real tangible assets, I found somebody that had personal net worth of $100 million.

30:00 – We all have the internal power to create that WHY for ourselves. That’s what fuels every single thing. My WHY isn’t money, my WHY is influence, my WHY is helping people I see. The satisfaction for me, isn’t taking somebody from I have the dream to leave corporate America, or I have the dream to own a business. But I don’t know how to make it come true and taking them through a one to two month process to where I’m happily marrying them off to their franchisor.

40:25 – In a lot of businesses, the franchisor doesn’t want the investor to invest in the land up front, save your cash, put it into the business, make sure this is a business you’re going to enjoy. Make sure you have enough cash flow to get the business up and positively, you know, cash flowing, and then maybe look to buy out your landlord over time. Automotive is like a great industry for that for people that ultimately want to own the real estate.

49:20 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

I would say Scott that freedom is the most honest state of the human being right. We were created for joy and joy is really only ever fully achieved when we feel free. Freedom comes with a price. Usually, in the context of owning a business. The price is courage. It’s the courage to put yourself into the arena. But in a franchising situation, it doesn’t require like pure guts, it requires you following the lead of other people, those who’ve already figured it out. I can be your guide to help find those people to find an organization where you believe that you can thrive. So it’s not like getting into that airplane, getting to your cruising altitude, and then jumping out having never skydived before all by yourself. It’s skydiving out of that airplane with somebody on your back who’s done this hundreds of times, and who can help you carefully land where you’re trying to go.

That’s really going to sum it up. So for those people that are inspired by the idea to own your business, it’s never going to be the right time. It’s never going to feel 100%, like, oh my gosh, this is it, I gotta go do this. There’s always going to be those doubts, those insecurities, those anxieties, but if you want the outcome, if you want the life that you truly own, where you can be accountable to you where you can wake up every day, feeling empowered by what you’ve created, and abundant because it’s all yours and it’s unlimited. You have to be willing to push through those first fears, and put yourself into the conversation and I’m here, I’d love to be your daily coach, my services are free, you will never pay me any money, so you have nothing to lose.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

11:00 – The absolute most all encompassing aspect of that is the light that we’re under. So if it’s not totally dark, when you’re sleeping, your body knows. Our bodies, even if you’re covering your eyes, your body can tell that the light is there, because every single cell in our body is being programmed by that light. So I’ve done all these things and then like drinking a Red Bull before you go to bed, right?

21:50 – One of the things I was learning was the importance of being in the sun for making vitamin D. I knew you couldn’t make vitamin D in the winter and a lot of places, but I’d never thought much about it beyond that. I gave my kids a supplement, because the pediatrician told me to and that was kind of it. So I downloaded the D minder app, which tells you where the sun is in the sky, and it geo locates you and tells you how much vitamin D you can make on that day, depending on where you are.

32:15 – I love it. That’s beautiful, Scott, and that’s exactly it, right? It goes back to what we were saying before. You can take really good care of yourself. But then if you go to bed in a pile of asbestos, everything you’ve done that day is not going to save you right. So it’s if not taking care of our light is like I would say as toxic as sleeping in a pile of asbestos.

40:45 – You do want to be getting some blue light during the day. That’s the reason the darker the lenses, the more blue light is being blocked. There is no blue light in nature after sunset. There is blue light present in nature, during the day, especially around high noon. However, the natural light that you get from the sun, while it contains some of the blue spectrum, you never get just the blue on its own. It’s always balanced out with some orange and some yellow and some red. I mean, it’s the Sci Fi like it’s not blue. So high noon, when you when it’s like that really bright, intense light, that’s when you have the most blue light present and the least red and then sunrise and sunset. Obviously, it flips around and the blue almost disappears. So if you were nighttime blue blockers during the day, you’re still messing up your circadian rhythm. Because you’re, you’re telling it there’s no blue light, which will trick your body, it’ll make you sleepy.

50:20 – I have my red light on. So if there’s decent quality and then this, I like that. So that’s from a company called EMR tech. Yet these are those nice little lens. So it’s not like a full red light panel where you can lay in front of it. and do your whole body. They do have those too.

01:10:00 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

I’m gonna go back to when I was at when I asked the doctors, when this type of information would make it into med school. And they said if if it ever does, it’ll be another 15-20 years. And what I’ve realized through my research is there’s something called the translational gap, when new information or a new discovery is validated and real. But there’s, there’s a lag between when it has been discovered, like say penicillin, and when it’s something that’s actively prescribed through the medical system. And we’re in that gap right now with this type of information. And that gap is being filled with things like this podcast, and listening to this podcast and having mentors like you, and being people who are willing to take a risk and do their own research. We’re shifting the paradigm and closing that gap faster, if it would you and maybe wouldn’t even ever get closed. So I just want to say that what you do, and the people who listen to this podcast, it really matters.

Making Gratitude Meditation Music Videos

Scott Mulvaney — Fri, 13 May 2022 15:15:00 +0000

Meditation through music and video with Rayko:

SPECIAL Timing Note: We originally recorded this episode in October 2021. Thank you in advance as we catch up on episode releases since our host, Scott Mulvaney, started returning from his time off to finish writing and self-publishing his inspirational first book, “So You Want To Be A Hotshot” on Amazon.

Rayko

An “Emotional Conduit”, Rayko is a prolific songwriter and an energetic, sought- after vocalist Rayko composed the melodies for Gratitude and sang, played on and produced all pieces as well. Her compositions often contain themes of social justice, female perspectives and cross-cultural challenge. Born in Tokyo, Rayko also composed, arranged and performed songs for the award-winning Amazon Prime series, “Man In the High Castle.” Her other compositions include “Reaching For The Stars” and “Behind The Sun”—co-written with Grammy winner Isha Erskine, as well as the ending theme for the feature “The Wolves of Saving Hill”— featuring Kurt Fuller of “Pursuit of Happyness,” and the late Michael Massee of Spider-Man 2. Rayko is the vocalist in the house band of a popular Adult Swim show, and currently the voice of a brand new ride in Tokyo Disneyland.

Frank

Inspired by a recent trip down the Nile River to “The Birthplace of Civilization”, songwriter Frank Kilpatrick created Gratitude to, “Draw attention to everything we have to be thankful for.“ Frank created lyrics for all songs in the Gratitude suite and oversaw video and music production. He has written numerous songs in exploratory, harmonic and romantic genres that are available for licensing. Recently, he created “Stay Alive” – a 90-minute Suicide Prevention video podcast.
Frank frequently collaborates with: Billy Hinsche – best known for his 30+ year touring role with The Beach Boys and Brian Wilson; co-Founder of Dino, Desi and Billy; and singer and/or songwriting contributor to the recordings of Elton John and Chicago and Scott Paige – best known for his work with the international traveling bands for Pink Floyd, Toto and Supertramp, as well as others.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

05:15 – For those people who are interested in that, that’s a real, rich area to explore. What we do in our gratitude videos that we’ve talked about, is we have encompassed some of that, let’s call it strategy. We don’t take the technical approach to it, you don’t have to understand what binaural beats are to appreciate what we’ve done.

06:00 – We’ve encompassed some of that in our gratitude videos, because we find that it’s more engaging to the listener. There is something about the mind, it wants to kind of resolve that little slight difference that they hear and in the frequency, the tone. So that makes it more engaging to draw you into meditation.

10:00 – I mean, it is very, very interesting how people react to certain music and when I am getting ready to volunteer again for the convalescent homes, and the the director, the activity director that I spoke to said, those Alzheimer’s patients don’t remember the names or the the places they went to. They don’t even speak much, but when they hear the music that they are familiar with, they start singing they have not forgotten the lyrics to the songs. So yes, music plays a huge role in mental illnesses, disabilities, you know, simple things like get you going.

20:00 – Check out Dope Panels, we just got the trademark, 100% dope and dope panels

28:00 – In addition to the audio, the thing that we did here is we took the audio, it’s kind of an introduction to meditation for some people tell us it’s a good place to start. But we also added video and we added an on screen informational kit content, which really kind of doubles the impact because you’re connecting multiple modalities.

30:00 – Our 90 Minute suicide is a film, it’s called stay alive. It was aimed at communicating with people who were in a very dark place.

41:00 – I’m from Japan. Yeah. I am a city girl, I’m from Tokyo and you know, city I know. Having worked with Tokyo Disney, the new newest ride the hottie ride with de Mads, like all six songs. It was it was really, really fun project.

51:00 – My partner is actually an ex car race driver. He raced for 20 years and he’s done enough carbon damage that he really wants to save the environment. He’s a two time cancer survivor when he was 19. He had cancer when he was 21. He got everything metastasized, and he was dying at 98 pounds and cannabis helped him survive.

57:05 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

I am a huge believer of not putting any limitations. Because the worst you get is a no. So I would encourage everybody to be fearless and do it, as long as it’s not illegal or hurting yourself or hurting them hurting others. Just put no limitations out there and just go for it. Just believe in yourself and if you get no then move on. But you know, no is the the worst that you get. Be kind to all living things, animals, the environment, the trees and oceans, and you know, do unto others. That’s always been my go to.

Autoimmune Diseases and What’s Wrong With My Child

Scott Mulvaney — Thu, 14 Apr 2022 11:00:00 +0000

Autoimmune conditions and diseases are real. Do you wonder what’s wrong with your child?

Elizabeth Harris is a devoted mother, author and science-minded business owner with more than two decades of experience in the field of wellness. Elizabeth’s education, life experience, drive and entrepreneurial spirit proved to be the very thing that saved the life of both herself and her son after they were diagnosed with rare and very serious autoimmune diseases.

In 2008, Elizabeth’s son came down with a case of strep throat, after receiving antibiotics he seemed to be feeling better, but then his behavior became erratic. After consulting numerous doctors, specialists and undergoing multiple tests, Elizabeth’s son was diagnosed with Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal Infections (PANDAS) and he was prescribed psychiatric medication and they were sent on their way. Her son got worse. He began having uncontrollable compulsions and ended up in a juvenile detention center. His psychiatric symptoms were replacing his physical symptoms and Elizabeth realized that her son’s immune system was misfiring. Around the same time, Elizabeth was diagnosed with complex regional pain syndrome, experienced hair loss, limb numbness and more. Elizabeth decided to take matters into her own hands, quit her job and dedicated her life to finding the real root of her son’s health issues. She discovered that both herself and her son were infected by a bacteria called Mycoplasma Pneumonia and was able to follow a treatment plan to finally solve their health issues. Today, Elizabeth uses her experience and her expert wellness team to help others at What’s Wrong Wellness and is also the author of What’s Wrong with My Child and America is Infected.

Today’s Top 3 Takeaways:

Investing tests and risking losing your home.
Putting your children’s health first.
Autoimmune issues are real and your children can be healthy and “normal” again.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

05:00 – Well, they weren’t the same, they didn’t present the same. But ultimately they were and so that was the confusing piece. I mean, there was some good news and bad and we had adopted two children as well. So everyone was showing symptoms, you know, when you get all this information, and this or that and finally, one day, I’m like, well, wait a minute.

11:30 – I just trusted our pediatrician that he knew what to do. But it was very odd. When my ex-husband and my son were over there when this happened. We both witnessed him just completely going into these episodes, it was an episode with one specific actor struck.

19:30 – I just took a hiatus, a sabbatical basically, just to be a full time mom, stay at home, and keep an eye on everything. Then our housekeeper comes in one day with a sore throat and had strep. And here comes around to I mean, almost immediately, it sent him through the roof, this time with a whole new on flight, and a variety of psychiatric symptoms yet again. So it’s like a next level. So like now it’s not just OCD and ADHD, this time we had oddness and the compulsions to live there.

30:00 – I’m waiting really and I’m like looking at all these labs. I’m taking him to all of these doctors just to make sure I haven’t missed anything but the only thing in his system is streptococcal pneumonia and his titers are always really high when he’s in bad shape and a mycoplasma pneumonia infection. One or two doctors already said, that doesn’t mean anything. But you know, once we had the other things in place, that was the only thing still left. So I said, okay, this has to be this, like, it’s nothing else. We had the genes tested at $10,000 in genetic testing, on top of the fact that, my adopted children had them. So at the end of the day, I was like, I gotta learn more about this mycoplasma pneumonia.

40:00 – I’m either gonna order $3,000 worth of these antibiotics, we’re gonna get cured, or we’ll lose a house and we’re gonna die anyways.

52:43 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

Trust yourself, advocate for yourself. Don’t be intimidated. Just, if you feel something is off, something’s off. Don’t let yourself get talked out of it.

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

10:00 – I have been involved with a lot of training academies, training the people that we hire, I’ve done several. You get to week three or so and you start to learn that people’s personalities are the ones that are going to actually stick around and graduate. A bunch of them get nicknames and that nickname for sure follows them to their first assignment. A lot of times, you know, quite a ways through their career.

20:00 – The first time I have ever went on an airplane was there were fires are burning in Florida in 1998. And we flew, we went to Florida, in all parts of Florida, northern Florida and Flagler County there. And we got our R&R in Florida. So a whole bunch of you know, 21 year old kids, you know, going to check it out places we never been Cocoa Beach and mandatory days, days off. You go to the south Daytona. No, we were up in the middle of the state, though. We made it to Daytona. We did. We rented a car and went to we rented a t top trans-am. Anybody here ever heard of a car company called Pontiac,

31:20 – on those tragic events, and you know, we’re kind of talking, you know, about, like you said, people that are closest, how hard it is for them. And when I would use it as a training tool, and this is a great discussion, just for everybody listening out there. And if you haven’t seen the movie, I definitely recommend recommend it as just a way to honor those, those guys that are no longer with us, but but it’s the human factors, right. Like you mentioned, there’s, there’s policies, and there’s procedures, and then there’s science, right, there’s the weather that we can’t always predict. But really, we specialize and when we’re training people, you know, we can’t control all those other factors. But we’re trying to teach people the human factors.

40:00 – In reference to Situational Awareness, a lot of times I try to recognize when things aren’t going like they should. Or if somebody needs help in a certain area, I’m kind of that for them, but who’s watching my back? So that’s her, she’s seeing the whole picture.

50:00 – I post a lot about fitness because like you, it’s just kind of over time, that’s kind of what I became known for. At work, that was part of my passion, that’s just who I am. So that’s the business side of it, the podcasting, and even the business side with VenturAthlete. I actually started first programming for our teams that I worked with are paid, hand crews, trying to come up with something that we can do at work that would still allow us to work. Because you can go hardcore on a lot of this programming that you can find online nowadays.

01:02:00 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

At this point, what I would like to be known for and what I would like to pass on even to my sons that they would be known for, and I kind of got it just in three little little short blurbs. It’s to Stay Hungry, to Be Humble, and to Do Hard-Work. You’re never going to reach the pinnacle. You’re never going to get to the top of the ladder. Staying hungry all the time, but doing it in a way that has humility and not arrogance. That means you can help other people and then doing the hard work recognizing when there’s hard work and not passing it up to let somebody else handle it. But you get in there and do the hard work and so that’s what I would drop on the audience. I hope it’s helpful to you and thank you so much Scott for having me on the show.

Bookmark Publishing House, a division of J. Hil Creative, was born out of necessity when the inquiries I put out to help authors publish their masterpieces gained traction. Now, it is Bookmark that demands most of my time–and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Authors who come to me get a genuine assessment of what they need to do to reach the book publishing finish line. I am qualified to teach them as this is a road I have traveled myself.

It’s important that an author works with an editor who has been in the book writing trenches–who is an author themselves. So the process is one of not just empathy but sympathy. When I tell authors I understand their confusion and overwhelm, their fear of releasing their book baby into the world, I absolutely mean it. This is why I love being a book coach so much! There is nothing like being witness to a writer’s strength growing in ways that surprise even them. I tell myself every day that I have the best job on the planet.

Since 2016, Bookmark has helped over 100 authors everywhere get published! That’s a number I’m pretty proud of. I attribute our success to my incredible team of experts ranging from proofers, formatters, designers, marketers, copywriters, and editors.

Another one of my labors of love is the Go Book Yourself podcast that allows authors to master writing, marketing, and publishing one byte at a time. It’s my hope that this podcast will provide peace of mind through the sharing of relevant and road-tested tips, tricks, and industry insights, so authors can gain the confidence they need to move forward on the steps to publication.

As you are about to learn, there’s no feeling like becoming an author in the entire world. Wearing the crown of authorhood belongs solely to you. Nothing can ever take it away. And in my eyes, nothing can ever beat it.

Although my time is dedicated mainly to Bookmark, I am available for copywriting, publishing, and marketing consultations. Please reach out using the Contact option on the menu at the top of the page. I can’t wait to speak with you soon!

00:30 – Introduction

10:25 – I have to stay sane and married. So I’m gonna make a command decision right now to do those things. I admired your dedication. I admired your focus, and you came back to it. So some people don’t come back to it. I don’t know why this is.

17:10 – You already had that commitment. I think he was robbed but what stuck out for me and what I just kind of chuckled over and I really enjoyed watching you get into and wade around in… You fully immersed yourself in the total geekiness of living as a minimalist. That that was joyful for me.

22:30 – So I do mention that in the book. There’s already been a movie about the Granite Mountain Hotshots who passed away June 30, 2013. I got to serve alongside of them with my crew Pleasant Valley Hotshots in 2010, 2011, on different fires. Then, unfortunately, when I stepped away from the profession, they ended up passing away. 19 of the 20 men lost their lives on the Yarnell Hill fire on June 30, 2013 trying to protect the town of Yarnell outside of Prescott, Arizona.

30:35 – It’s not you, it’s me. I think my line was, man I was such a douche, I think my line was, was like, listen, I can be gone for a month at a time or two months at a time. It’s not fair to you or I to take those matters of the heart like that so lightly. Honestly, deep down, I didn’t want to. I didn’t want to risk my heart, I was shut down. I saw people on my crew struggling, being engaged, being married, worrying about people cheating on you while you’re gone. So I was like, dude, this is only for like, sometimes four to six weeks. I can’t imagine people in the military what they go through. It took a lot of years of work to pull my head out of my ass after this.

40:00 – Well, I’ll tell you what I think what you’re doing here is right. So when you take on a book, it used to be, I’m going to write a book and that’s going to be the focus. I’m going to write a book and then I’m going to do this, then I’m going to do this, and I’m going to do this, once you’ve done “this”, you launch a multi-prong campaign. That is exactly what you should be doing. So if there’s anything that I want people to take away today, it is to wrap your mind around the fact that you’re not just an author, you are a marketer, you will be whether you’re self-publishing, going with the publisher or a traditional publisher, whatever the case is. You will be expected to come to the table as a marketer.

Our Final Words of the Show:

If you can’t sell your own book… Alright. So my friends, my family, my followers, please help push this out there. Now again, all profits go to charity, I’m not messing around. It tells you right an Amazon. It’s literally on the back of the book. I started my own foundation, that was one of the things that happened because of writing the book. I want to be able to make sure and guarantee people that money is going to charity.

FUEL Foundations is legit 501-C3 nonprofit that I registered over a year ago. I didn’t plan on doing it until writing the book because then I realized, wait a minute, what if certain firefighting benefiting communities or charities either go defunct, or all of a sudden get shady. I need to ensure that people’s money is being put in the right hands. If I only aligned with one charity on the book, well, then I can’t help others. So this is one way that we can literally ensure that this book’s success can be benefiting multiple organizations for years to come!

Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

11:00 – I used to ride my mom’s Bianchi. For years, I would steal it, she would know it. It was a little bit bigger than me, so I kind of grew into it. We actually moved to Burnsville way up through 309. We’re just a little bit outside the Parkland School District, but I refuse to go to Northwestern High School is a different district. So I would ride my bike almost every day to train for wrestling from Burnsville down the back way through down to the old Parkland High School, which is Orefield, and it was just a fantastic ride.

21:30 – I wanted to write for Outside, Men’s Health, and Men’s Journal which are the ones we talked about. Yeah, they just wouldn’t have me. They’re like, hey, nice job, kid. Here’s a lollipop go read our magazine somewhere else. I was like, well I think I’m a good writer. I think I can handle this and they wouldn’t even give me the time of day. So I did my first Triathlon in the fall of 1999. I did the Catalina Island Triathlon off the coast of Los Angeles. I had lost 100 and change pounds to do my first race. I was miserablfe. I was unhappy. So I gained all this weight, a long story, but I ended up losing it all. Because I was training for triathlons. I didn’t know I was just running and my knees couldn’t sustain me because I was too heavy. So I started biking like I used to, and then, long story short, I’m cycling and swimming and running and someone said you should do a triathlon. I said, okay and I signed up for one in November of 1999.

30:00 – I think clydesdale calss was never closer, I think it was 200 lbs. But regardless, you’re talking about whether they were fantastic triathletes or not, they were still athletes, and they’re still out there doing it. I don’t care how big you are, or if you’re like, quote, in shape or out of shape. You have significantly different needs at that size. I mean, just the square inches of pound pressure you put on your feet as you run is just substantially different. So we would talk about things for them, we were the first. There was a woman out of California, her name is Rachel Sears, she was a semi pro athlete, she married a guy named Phil Cosanta. These are names I haven’t heard of in years, who was a coach out there. She convinced me that there was a mechanisation in any kind of training called periodization. That is how you peak when you peak, how you put baseballs and so forth, and how you get ready for a race. It’s this series of weeks to train for a race. So she wrote an article on what periodization was all about, how do women stay at their top performance if they’re on their period. We’re talking people were telling me don’t print that article and she was telling me you need to print this article. I’ll tell you I’ve never received before, since, and I worked for other magazines after this, so many positive reviews. Specifically from women stating that no one ever told them about this stuff. So I think we were really groundbreaking in many ways. I wish I would have known then that we were so so forthright and so innovative, because I think we could have capitalized on it could have been more successful.

38:50 – I’m completely online and virtual. So I do have a couple of virtual people that I outsource to stuff like that. I don’t have full blown like, teenagers who you’re talking about, but I agree with you 110% that you cannot find the same psychological connectivity virtually, that you do physically. Obviously, I want people to be healthy and safe and whatever your position is on COVID and all this transition, but it’s like in the end, especially an agency like you guys, I can’t be that dude, that’d be in the office.

46:00 – What’s interesting, too, is now everything is virtual. You can even do, you know this, but now you can have whiteboard sessions and collaborations. Just yesterday, somebody was like, we don’t know if we should do this or not, you know, full rebrand. I’m like, why don’t we just have a conversation? He’s like, well, I got people in Orlando, and I’m in Arizona, and now the people in Maine. So we don’t just get on a, we’ll have a whiteboard session online, we can draw on each of the screens. We can post things, they’re like, what, you can do that? I’m like, well, first of all, we have been for the last year, but secondly, the whiteboard thing is new to us. But it’s been really fun learning new things.

59:30 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

My wife, she’s very loyal and she is also about justice. She’s very straight with me and she very much sees my frailties and my weaknesses. But she also embraces me for them and loves my strengths. When I’m in a situation like that, when I’m nervous, when I don’t want to do something, and I’m like, gosh, I’m feeling vulnerable. She’s the first one to say, Yeah, but that’s when you need to go. That’s when you’ll learn the most and you’ll give the most. I wish I had that skill set. When I was younger, I wish I had that skill set working for other people. Because had I been a little bit more receptive, a little bit more patient, a little bit more humble, I could have been a lot more effective as a man than I was at that time.

00:30 – Introduction

08:15 – The reality is, we put a lot of pressure on our educators to solve all of society’s problems in the way that they teach and educate and prepare our youth for the future. That’s the main objective of our education system is to prepare a future workforce. Now, the reality is, those people are often in education, and never got a chance to enter the workforce in the same way that the 80 to 90% of people do. They are back in education, they spend their careers in education, they trained to be an educator, so we cannot expect of them to guide in a way that a professional mentor, you know, someone from industry would guide. And so that’s kind of the issue, right?

13:45 – What we see is virtual learning is really just the theory, like the theory based learning that’s now being done in a virtual world, which is not experiential learning. We’re not changing the way that we’re teaching. We’re just changing the modality in which the educators connect with students. So obviously, the best schools, the most progressive institutions are not only transitioning to virtual, but they’re also redesigning their curriculum around optimizing for virtual environment. So that’s the first thing. The second thing is if you think about that concept of learning, ever since you were a child, you were dropped off at school, and that’s where you learned, and then you came home from school. And that’s where you’re not learning, right?

22:00 – Now we’re living in a world where it’s not just the data, but it’s the AI tools that are being built to analyze that data. So we’re on version two, version three, version four of platforms, and it’s never not going anywhere, like all of this stuff. It’s amazing, internet drops in a place what do people do? Right?

31:05 – The reality is, what a great way to hire people, right? There is a current age-old philosophy which is the case assessments. That’s where we’re doubling down into that as a tool to get students paired up with the right companies for the internships. So the first thing is, Can you answer this basic challenge, which requires that I learned about the company, it requires that I learn about their their challenges in different departments, it requires that I practice using some tools that I likely will need to use. Then after that, let’s give them a real project to work on. That’s going to take four weeks, and now they have more expectations, milestones, deliverables, someone to talk to you at the company. Now you have an entry level talent pipeline, you’re able to recruit and hire them to really make an impact on your organization.

44:15 – Final Words Shown Below…

Our Final Words of the Show:

Well, I’ll stick with this kind of mentor notion and just say that the best way to learn is to teach it’s a great you know, tactic for, you know, teaching and employees how to perform better is to give them someone something to teach, so that they can learn it better. Because you you forget you neglect to think about how much documentation goes into teaching, right? Like you’re like, oh, if I’m going to try to teach someone how to use our CRM, like I should probably explain like what a CRM is and compare it to other ones and talk about why we use it. And like some of that’s that prep process gets you to think more deeply about why you use these tools. So the reality is, if you are trying to empower your team motivate your team, or motivate yourself. Right? Find someone to mentor find something to teach other people. And you’ll I think you’ll live a more fulfilled life.
