From Fat and Depressed to Healthy and Happy with Fitness Coach Matt Izzo

Matt Izzo has lost 75 pounds. Three times. The third time something permanent happened. He underwent a holistic transformation and has kept off the weight for 5 years. What’s more, he is now training for an Ironman. Previously, Matt was a relatable, average guy who found himself in an unhealthy, depressing environment where he felt stuck. His default mindset and focus were negative and spiraling downward. He was in a chronically negative state without even realizing it. For a while, Matt thought he hated himself because he was fat. Through the lens of hindsight, however, he came to understand that he hated himself AND he was fat. It wasn’t until Matt addressed the underlying mental and emotional issues that he was able to make a sustainable change. Five years ago, he committed to healing and getting healthy for good. And it to say he transformed himself would be an understatement.

From Victim of Extreme Poverty and Abuse to Note Investor and Zen Practitioner with Luis Miranda

Luis Miranda is a part-time computer programmer and part-time investor. When it comes to adversity, Luis may just set the bar based on what he has been through. Luis grew up in Peru with no running water and no electricity. On top of that, he went through years of molestation and physical abuse, dealing with instability and a lack of safety and trust for his entire childhood. Eventually making his way to the U.S., Luis bounced around as part of the foster-care system but still suffered from trust issues and a lack of direction and hope. Among other things, he turned to selling and using drugs.  Tune in to hear how Luis took ownership of his life and changed his path. He is now a married, successful W-2 employee and investor. But his path to abundance was not a straight one. Even recently, after Luis had "made it," he dealt with a serious lack of happiness and fulfillment. He is now focused on adding value to others and practicing Zen. You do not want to miss this episode!

From Struggling Personally and Professionally to Empowering Others with Innovator Dr. Terrence Johnson

Dr. Terrence Johnson is an innovator and a mental health professional. He and his business partner own iProgress, where their mission is to help individuals, organizations, and communities shift towards a path that aligns with their purpose. This episode is slightly atypical, in that it is less about investing and business and more about handling relatable adversity and serving others in a healthy way. We dive into the passing of Terrence's father, after years of sickness, and some relationship struggles that existed there. We also discuss career adversity Terrence has faced, as well as challenges he has helped others through from a mental-health standpoint. Terrence has always been a helper, but one takeaway is that even serving others can be taken too far. This is a practical episode with a giving, upbeat guest.
