EP.137 | Jeff and Derz - Ego is Hard Work May 02, 2019

Show notes

How much of the adversity we experience is of our own doing? Why do we have such a hard time accepting the advice of mentors as gospel?

Speaking of advice; not all guidance is created equal. It is true that many of the people of influence in our lives give advice from a place of love with our best interest at heart. However, in many of those instances, much of that cautionary guidance also comes from inexperience and fear. So while they may be looking out for you, these people can be holding you back when they should be telling you to take that leap of faith.

We dive in on finding quality mentors to guide your journey and the signs to look for along the way. While overcoming adversity is requisite to success, the willingness to overcome and endure is more important when it comes to the telling of your life's story! Chances are that if you're listening to this episode, it is coming at a time when you need to hear today's conversation. It is no coincidence that you hear what you need to hear when you need to hear it. In actuality, you are simply open to the information for the first time. So be open today and listen intently!

EP.136 | Tammy Fellows - You Can Have It All Apr 25, 2019

Show notes

We are excited to add Tammy Fellows (@tfellows77) to our ever-growing list of superwomen! She owns a number of lifestyle publications native to Phoenix, Arizona's East Valley, namely Paradise Valley Lifestyle (@paradisevalleylifestyle).

Tammy has an incredible story in which she cut her teeth in marketing and media to find success as a woman in an overwhelmingly male-dominated field. After spending her early years learning her trade and harnessing her craft, she struck out on her own.

However, while her career accomplishments are quite distinguished, what impressed us the most is how she manages to balance the hustle and bustle of growing her readership with the demands of being an amazing mom and incredible wife.

In this weeks episode, listen close, as Tammy dispels the myths surrounding work-life balance. Challenging? Yes. Impossible? No.Tammy proves that you can indeed achieve massive success in your career and in your personal life without choosing one over the other.

Listen up! Because this one is for EVERYONE!

EP.135 | Neil Carlson - It's All In The Words Apr 18, 2019

Show notes

Did you know that by the time we reach adulthood, we are subconsciously wired to say, "No"?

Neither did we. That is until we met Neil Carlson, sales coach and founder of "It's All In The Words" Sales Training. In his 40+ year career, he has studied sales and people for 30 of them. Publishing a book on human behavior and sales, with a second on the way. In that time he has come to one singular conclusion: you must change your way of thinking before you can ever expect to change the mind of a prospective customer.

In today's conversation, we spend a lot of time talking sales and the lessons learned through Neil's study and observation. However, if you listen deeper, this conversation has so many parallels to life and how we communicate has human beings.

We cover everything from how you show up for someone you're meeting for the first time, to getting through that obligatory, "No" that we're all so conditioned for, to help the customer make up their own mind and close the deal in which they originally showed up to make. When it's all said and done, it is not your job to sell anything. Rather, it's your job to shut up, listen, and ask the right questions.

Great sales, is customer service at its finest. As Neil puts it, "Its all in the words!"

EP.134 | Sam Davis - She's A Boss! Apr 11, 2019

Show notes

If she looks like a boss, sounds like a boss, and acts like a boss, she probably is a boss! That's exactly what Sam Davis (@samdavis19) has become, not only her own boss but her own superhero as well!

Like many entrepreneurs, Sam recognized holes in an industry and then built her company around fixing the gaps she saw. Creating a niche market for herself in the process.

Sam has an amazing soul. One in which the value of relationships is unquantifiable. After a last minute trip to see a dear friend, a visit that would be the last before her friend passed away, Sam realized that life is indeed fleeting. She made a promise to her friend and herself, that she would live life to the fullest. Maximizing each and every day.

Today we uncover Sam's motivation to build a tribe of her own, and find out what drew her to stand in her light and own it as a motivator and person of influence within her industry!! She has lived a lot of life and tells us what it means to be your own superhero. Your own boss, accountable to yourself and no one else.

Brace yourself, as we go deep with Sam as she shares her journey from an introvert athlete to coach, to role model on today's episode of Feed Me Fuel Me (@feedmefuelme).

EP.133 | Jason Archer - HardWodder: Creating Mastery Apr 04, 2019

Show notes

It is rare that we get to see the manifestation of a mindset based in scarcity and that of abundance simultaneously. In the case of Jason Archer, founder of HardWodder (@hardwodder), he got to experience both firsthand. He was raised, on the other side of the tracks in a family that never really had much. He also had an uncle, whom he would later work for, that had everything your heart desires.

He has taken the scrappy work ethic and resourcefulness acquired by being one of society's "Have Nots", and combined it with the anything-is-possible mentality often found throughout society's "Haves".

He began HardWodder with the intent of selling a few t-shirts here and there. However, as time went on, and life would play out, he embraced a bigger vision. It isn't simply about clothes. It isn't just about fitness. It isn't all about business. No, what it is about is getting out of your own way and embracing life's challenges head-on in pursuit of the quality of life we want and deserve.

Jason's vision is summed up in the HardWodder Mission Statement: "To Arm Humans With The Tools to Crush Mediocrity, Create Mastery, & Live in Total Wellness"

Sidenote, Jason has amassed one the most extensive comic book collections we've ever seen. So join us as we go deep in abundance and superheroes with Jason on this week's episode of Feed Me Fuel Me (@feedmefuelme)!!

EP.132 | Kevin Donahue - What Is Alpha? Mar 28, 2019

Show notes

What do you think when you hear the word "ALPHA"? What does it mean to be masculine? Can feminine be truly defined?

As we dive in with Kevin Donahue (@donahuekm), founder of Surf & Serve (@surf_and_serve) and serial entrepreneur, he has found his gift in people. His mission is to serve. As he quoted Dan Sullivan, creator of Strategic Coach (@strategic.coach), "people are helium distributors, and others in the world are balloons. The more helium we put into each other's balloons, the higher we all go." This is the thesis of Kevin's abundance mentality!

Within that conversation of abundance, Kevin is putting the false narrative surrounding masculinity and femininity on blast. His initiative is to enforce what it means to be a strong man alongside a strong woman, and vice versa. The western world has confused what it is to truly support one another and acknowledge what roles we play within our relationship constructs. We are not playing the game of opposition, rather one of synergy. Much like the yin and yang, men and women were not put on this earth to be better than the other but to compliment each other to become greater together than they could become as individuals.

Join us this week as we unpack Pandora's Box with Kevin on what it is to really be a man in modern western society!

EP.131 | Curtis Ray - Pay Yourself First! Mar 21, 2019

Show notes

This week we sit down with Curtis Ray (@curtisthefinancialguy), author of "Everyone Ends Up Poor" and we talk about MONEY!!

As PT Barnum once said, "Money is a terrible master, but is an excellent servant". Curtis developed, designed, and implemented the Maximum Premium Index (MPI) financial strategy. Curtis is a serial entrepreneur, having an athletic career cut short only to realize that a conventional education wasn't for him, he struck out on his own. Along the way, he began a ferocious journey into learning finance and discovered many holes in the guidance given by financial planners.

Of those various holes, one of the biggest being the typical conversation about making money. Curtis simply asked the question, "Why isn't anyone talking about keeping the money we are so adamant about making?"

We're going to find the answer to that question and figure out why everyone ends up poor!!

Thanks for giving us the opportunity to empower your journey!!!

EP.130 | Josh Zuniga - The Love Frequency 528 Mar 14, 2019

Show notes

How do you manifest love? You have to start operating from a place of abundance, which increases your vibration. This, in turn, increases your frequency. The frequency of LOVE so happens to be, 528 Hz. Also known as the frequency of creation.

This is just one of the many lessons learned in our conversation with real estate entrepreneur and developmental coach, Josh Zuniga (@joshzuniga_). While the family business is in financing, fixing, and flipping homes, it is the result, not the reason.

Josh resonates on a higher frequency. His mission in life is to assist people in manifesting not only their ideal domicile, but to live out the rest of their days in a state of fulfillment. Above and beyond a successful career in selling houses, Josh has realized a need to facilitate an awakening in his clients. He has focused his efforts into living in love, showing love, and sharing love.

Join us this week, as we sit in Josh's light and hear how he has manifested such abundance for himself and others through choosing love on a daily basis!

EP.129 | Leila Marrash - Reveal The Realness Mar 07, 2019

Show notes

Leila Marrash (@lei.a.m) was the victim of her own choices for a long while. She took a trip to Sedona, Arizona seeking clarity and found much more than that. She found ownership and purpose.

A labor of love, Leila wears her heart on her sleeve in hopes of inspiring others to live their best lives and to set their authentic selves free. REVEAL the Realness (@revealtherealness) builds on Leila's Guiding Principles of REVEAL, offering a holistic approach to health and wellness. Through her own experiences, Leila shows us that tapping into our spiritual powers is the key to opening the doors to the lives that we desire. The book provides tools for everyone—from teens on up—to manage the mental, physical, and emotional stress that comes with life's challenges. Regardless of one's stage in life, this book holds something for everyone.

Providing 31 activities ranging from self-evaluations and buddy workouts to creating vision boards and setting goals, REVEAL the Realness touches on topics such as compassion, forgiveness, respect, and leadership. It challenges us to look in the mirror and to get honest with ourselves--to become better listeners, to be present in the moment, to lead by example, to seek happiness within, and to experience the fulfillment that contribution can bring.

Whether you are down on your luck or on top of the world, REVEAL the Realness is relatable to all. The book offers a culture for humanity--challenging each of us to be and to do better. We will never know what humans can achieve, collectively, until we know ourselves, individually. We will never know our full potential until we get real with ourselves, heal our inner children, and move past our pain. The message is clear: REVEAL yourself, heal the world.

REVEAL the Realness is a call to action. The question is, will you answer?

Thanks for joining us this week to listen to Leila's journey. Check out the show notes to get your hands on a copy of REVEAL!

EP.128 | Subyn Wadsworth - Sometimes Your Passion Finds You Feb 28, 2019

Show notes

Subyn Wadsworth (@subyn) is no stranger to being, as David Goggins (@davidgoggins) puts it, "The Only".

Growing up in two families: her white hippie mother in Oregon and her black executive father in Washington, D.C. she had to create her own identity very quickly. As she came into her own she was often not "black" enough or racially ambiguous in her immediate circles of influence.

Subyn's life is one symbolic of being at the right place at the right time, sometimes for the wrong reasons. Case in point, she made her break in modeling and acting while on set in support of a friend that answered an ad looking for "ethnic female" models. She got the gig and the rest is history.

Subyn has seen the world. However, as glamorous as it may sound, she makes conscious decisions almost daily to stretch her comfort zone. Her next big leap came when she was offered an apprenticeship to become an auctioneer by a good friend from her acting and modeling days Leticia Frye (@letitia_frye).

In doing so, she found her platform for effecting change in the world. She now travels the world in alignment with charitable organizations using her voice to move a room to action, raising millions of dollars to benefit those lacking the resources to do for themselves: from Child Help (@childhelp) to Gateway for Cancer Research (@demandcures).

Join us as we dive into Subyn's journey and learn how her desire for impact has influenced her ability to move the room!
