The Life Stylist

This episode is a long time coming – I’m sitting down with the catalyst of the Life Stylist podcast and my partner in crime at the School of Style, Lauren Messiah. (Oh... and we also dated for exactly five years.)As a self-described “perpetual not-fitter-inner,” Lauren struggles to find a tribe of her own – but she’s always had style, her one constant.If you dress the right way, you can fit in anywhere... but if you really own it, you can carve out your own space. That’s exactly what Lauren does, and that’s what makes her such an incredible entrepreneur.As a personal stylist, Lauren is dedicated to helping women fundamentally change their relationship with clothing so that they can take out the BS and completely transform themselves, from the outside in. What does your wardrobe communicate to other people? Hell, what does it communicate to yourself? How does our style affect our identity? Our energy?It’s not about being cute or sexy – it’s about getting what you want and living your best life!–Luke Topics Discussed In This Episode: How Lauren kicked my ass and got me to start the podcast Our five-year relationship and multiple attempts at couples therapy (including a stay at the Onsite Workshops) How we’ve evolved since ending our relationship Lauren’s first fashion memory Being a perpetual not-fitter-inner Growing up multiracial & feeling like you don’t have a tribe Using style to carve out her own space Being a voice for people who feel misunderstood Going to fashion school and then not becoming a designer Inadequacies in education Moving from the east coast to the west coast Becoming a stylist and finding the School of Style Blogging about fashion in 2005 Why Lauren stopped celebrity styling & started personal styling Being a servant VS serving Style being a huge pain point for so many people How a job with Nickelodeon changed Lauren’s life trajectory Clothing as a way of communicating your values Lauren’s evolving brand & relationship with style Living your best life Putting yourself in badass mode Being the Oprah of fashion The science of getting dressed How men can represent their true self on the outside Lauren’s current self-help journey   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ORGANIFI.

What motivates you? If you're like most people it's one of two things:    A) The avoidance of pain B) The pursuit of pleasure    This unique double-interview, narrative format show was motivated by the former. Pain. Lots of pain, for a long, long time- mostly in my lower back and right hip.   It all started 25 years ago when I injured my hip drunk-hiking in Angeles National Forest. I used to pack booze into the woods with my homies, get hammered, then try to find our way back out. It was the best of times, and well, you know the rest of the line.    At any rate, rather than having my hip looked at by an actual doctor, I had my pot dealing, boarding house manager Bob (who was incidentally, a spitting image of Steven Seagal) knock my displaced hip back into the socket with a giant rubber mallet.    Suffice to say, that method of medical treatment was not only ineffective but left my hip injured, which eventually put a strain on my S.I. joint. Add to that initial injury 15 more years of hauling massive musical equipment around the world while playing in rock bands (mostly also done while intoxicated), and you've got me at the current age of 47 years old, in fairly constant back pain.    Over the past 21 years that I've been into alternative health, biohacking and all ways and means by which to heal your body, mind, and soul, I've tried anything and everything I've ever heard of to improve my back and put an end to the nagging pain. The list is far too long to include here, but I'd dare say that I've tried just about anything that you can think of to fix it, short of straight-up surgery.    While I have had moments of reprieve here and there through the application of various modalities, nothing has ever really helped in a meaningful way.    Over the years, however, I have heard over and over again about the healing power of stem cell therapy, and have met many owners of injured, painful human bodies who have experienced nothing short of miraculous healing experiences using this increasingly popular natural-medicine intervention.    Due to this fact, I've had the words 'Stem Cell Treatment' on my yearly vision boards and journals, in hopes that someday I would be so situated as to try this emerging technology on my back.    Well, as fate would have it finally in February 2018, the stars finally aligned and I was able to travel to beautiful Park City Utah to undergo dual treatment under the care of doctors Harry Adelson and Amy Killen at Docere Clinics.    Dr. Harry worked his magic on my lower back, hip, spine, and shoulder, while Dr. Amy focused her injections on my face, scalp, and penis. Yes, you read that correctly. Why would I have them put there? You'll have to listen to this episode to find out.    This extraordinary show follows my entire journey from LA to Utah, in cars, on the airplane, to a local hot spring, and right into the operating room where the two interviews took place, mere moments before I went under anesthesia and underwent the procedure.    This will no doubt be a trip you won't forget as you ride co-pilot along with me on my latest experiment to find the ultimate solution to this long-standing physical challenge.    If you know anyone with persistent pain, or someone who's looking for safe alternatives to anti-aging and sexual optimization therapies, please do them a favor and share this episode with them now.    Here's to new discoveries in health and healing,   Luke  Topics Discussed On Today's EpisodeA full report of my journey from LA to Utah:  At the airport On the plane Off the plane and reporting from Uber At the secret hot springs with podcast listener Kia Sorensen, how she became a listener and her 3 top recommendations for keeping healthy, spiritually and emotionally centered The day after arrival, and off to Docere Clinic Interview with Dr. Harry Adelson: The ABCs of stem cells, and how it's the body’s own natural drugstore  What’s the deal with FDA’s paranoia?    The risks involved with stem cell therapy The conditions most often improved with this type of therapy “A busy doctor means a bad doctor”: Dr. Harry’s no-repeat business model Aftercare therapy, and the importance of bodywork, mobility and healthy lifestyle changes Neurodegenerative diseases and how injections into the brain work towards cell growth factor  Other fringing benefits of stem cell therapy  The difference between fat-derived cells and bone marrow cells  PRP therapy explained  Autologous Vs.

Welcome to the third and final installment of our Water Wars Trilogy, featuring Mukhunde Singh of www.livespringwater.com. Mukhunde is the man responsible for making sure I have a consistent supply of the most pristine spring water on earth, delivered right to my kitchen in LA every two weeks. He's been dedicated to his mission of educating people about the numerous benefits of drinking unprocessed water, directly from nature for over a decade.The reason I have chosen to deliver such a focused podcast trilogy is that after over a decade of personal research and development, I have decided to drink natural, wild, unadulterated spring water almost exclusively. However, in recent months there have been thousands of fake news web articles and television reports about the supposed 'dangers' of people drinking such water. The vast majority of recent media stories have positioned the practice of drinking unprocessed spring water as a 'new, dangerous trend' as if humans have not managed to survive on the planet for the past two million years drinking it.Many of these unfair, and erroneous media attacks have been directed at Mukhunde personally, so I needed to do my part to share his side of the story with the world. Having known him for many years, and having much first-hand experience of his pure heart and high integrity level, it was critical to me that I help secure his reputation as an upstanding and conscious entrepreneur.As a proud advocate of our fundamental human right to drink whatever water we chose to, and in support of our free market economy, I felt it more important than ever to give Mukhande an opportunity to share our mutual passion for living spring water with The Life Stylist Podcast audience. In this episode, you will learn how Mukhande took his love of water and turned it into a thriving, and unique business, and why he believes real spring water is the superior choice for personal and environmental well-being. He’s made a substantial positive impact not only on my health but on the health of dozens of friends and family members that have converted from processed, chemically treated water, to his delicious, lab-tested, entirely natural spring water.If you have not yet heard Water Wars Parts One and Two, featuring Daniel Vitalis and Seth Leaf Pruzansky, make sure to jump back in the feed and give those a thorough listen. The entire trilogy contains over six hours of life-changing content, 100% dedicated to celebrating and discovering the great mysteries of water.Please do someone you love a favor by sharing these profoundly impactful episodes with them. Now more than ever, we humans need to claim our divine birthright to drink water as nature intended it.Now go get hydrated!Luke Topics Discussed On This PART THREE Episode:    The meaning behind his name, and his first experience with spring water  How Mukhande took his love of water and turned it into a thriving, and unique business How most spring waters on the market are processed, and what that means  The story behind his first water collection as a business  His journey in procuring water rights Why he believes real spring water is the superior choice for personal and environmental well-being His business model, the challenges and cost of growing the business The reason behind why most water available to us is processed  The mainstream effort to discourage our autonomy  The unfair and erroneous media attacks that have been directed at Mukhunde personally Best resource to locate springs in U.S. The new delivery locations for the LA area, and his goals for expanding nationally Lifestyle recommendations   More about this episode...Watch on YouTube Listen to Pt1 & Pt2  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:AMPCOIL.

Welcome to the second installment of our Water Wars trilogy, featuring Seth Leaf Pruzansky of Tourmaline Springs. In this episode, our guest delivers a profoundly spiritual, yet practical point of view of water, one of natures greatest gifts to all life on earth.Have you ever wondered what water is, where it comes from, and why it's so crucial to our survival? Are you aware that your body and brain are mostly water? If we are made primarily of water, then wouldn't it stand to reason that our top health priority should be learning everything we can about this substance, and how to find the best possible source?When it comes to the water we drink and bathe in, there are thousands of choices, and most of them come with considerable health risks. Tap water is subject to endless sources of toxic contamination, despite the various forms of filtration available, and much of the bottled water on the market comes with challenges of its own - which in most cases puts it in the same lower class of safety as tap water, not to mention limitations of sustainability and adverse environmental impact.After over a decade of personal research and development, I have chosen almost exclusively to drink genuinely natural, wild, unadulterated spring water. However, in recent months there have been thousands of web articles and television reports about the supposed 'dangers' of people drinking such water.The vast majority of reports have positioned the practice of drinking unprocessed spring water as a 'new, dangerous trend' as if humans have not managed to survive on the planet for the past two million years drinking it.In light of much recent fake news propaganda put forth by the mainstream media, I've taken it upon myself to tell the other side of the story about what I believe to be nature's most significant, and mysterious gift to all life on earth. It can be argued, that after oxygen, water is in fact, the root of all life.When I set out to provide listeners of the show with a comprehensive guide to all things water, I had to track down Seth Leaf Pruzansky. Seth is one of America's most committed advocates for consuming natural spring water, using his company Tourmaline Springs as a vehicle by which to share his love of water with the very fortunate residents of the East Coast.In this episode, Seth is going to do nothing short of blowing your mind with his vast and intimate knowledge of this mysterious liquid we call water.Please do someone you love a favor by sharing this profoundly impactful podcast with them. Now more than ever, we humans need to claim our divine birthright to drink water as nature intended it.Now go get hydrated!Luke Topics Discussed On This PART TWO Episode:   How Seth got into spring water and started his own company  What is TDS and why a water lower in minerals is a better option  How the geographic location and the type of rock spring comes from determines the overall quality of that water  The difference between surface water and ground water  Why it’s important to lab test the water in some cases to make sure it’s safe  Primary water, and why it’s the most absolutely pure water on the planet  The fact that the Earth actually makes water The pros & cons of tap, filtered and bottled water The environmental destruction from corporations, and how it will take conscious entrepreneurship from small businesses to change the course The challenges his company faced with regulations to bring unadulterated water to market How the water industry affects the environment: the good, the bad and the ugly  How Seth discovered how to make non toxic plastic bottles for his company Tourmaline Spring  How you tell a specific spring is safe  Why the media has recently attacked the spring water industry  How there’s no such thing as free water Lifestyle recommendations  More about this episode Watch on YouTube If you missed Part One w/ Daniel Vitalis, click here.  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ALTERRA PURE.

It can be argued, that after oxygen, water is in fact, the root of all life.When I set out to provide listeners of the show with a comprehensive guide to all things water, my first stop was Daniel Vitalis. Daniel has been one of the most dedicated advocates for natural spring water in the health industry for two decades and has devoted much of his work to preserving and promoting this fundamental, and sacred human right.Once I got into this interview with Daniel, it quickly became evident that not only would his contribution to the conversation be longer than the usual one hour (this single episode alone clocks in at just over 3 hours), but it would also be necessary to include additional voices within the water industry itself. As a result of the overwhelming contribution of Daniel’s point of view, I decided to dedicate three entire episodes to the topic by creating a comprehensive trilogy, called Water Wars. This episode is the first in a series of three shows on this topic.You can look forward to two more mind-blowing episodes coming this Friday with Seth Leaf Pruzansky of Tourmaline Springs and Mukhande Singh of Live Spring Water, who each share their unique perspective as founders of the only two US companies that sell genuinely natural, unprocessed spring water.Please do someone you love a favor by sharing this profoundly impactful podcast with them. Now more than ever, we humans need to claim our divine birthright to drink water as nature intended it.Now go get hydrated!Luke Topics Discussed On This PART ONE Episode:   Daniel and I catch up as he shares his observations from the past 10 years of foraging, his podcast, and the new new direction of his work The non-cohesive world of ecology stewardship, and how environmentalists & hunter-gatherers are at odds with each other How GMO and glyphosate spraying affects our wild food sources Wild vs. Farmed, and why establishments can’t sell game meats Fake news and all the false propaganda lately about natural spring water: why is the media attacking it, why is the media so afraid of it? Are the big beverage corporations behind the media’s effort to discredit this very natural practice of drinking water from the Earth Is water actually alive? Does it have consciousness? What’s this energy we know as water? Where does Spring water actually comes from? What is raw or living water? How filtering water has its pros and cons The chemistry behind why water tastes flat The hydrological cycle of water, and the difference between well water, aquifer and spring water What are the possible dangers of drinking spring water? How to vet the spring The FDA lobbying to call tap and well water “spring” water. Turns out that most of the bottled water you drink is not from a spring, it’s never even seen a spring The environmental impact of the bottle water industry The health impacts of drinking plastic water Are some plastic bottles worse than others for you and the environment? What is wrong with tap water and can we trust the government that sell it to us? Do fracking chemicals, and nuclear waste and fluoride end up in our bodies? Pharmaceutical drugs and how they don’t always get filtered out from municipal water We focus on fluoride and find that it might not be so great for your teeth and could in fact have deleterious results in your health in general What about the risks of showers, baths, steam rooms and hot tubs The risk of tap water in bottled drinks: wine, beer, etc Daniel’s trip to a water plant, and the shocking discoveries he made there What filters work, if any Are reverse osmosis and distilled waters toxic?

This is a story about how our host, Marcus Antebi changed my life.The year was 2010. I was a vegetarian at the time, beginning to travel from LA to NYC more frequently for my work in the fashion industry. I remember the sheer terror of landing at JFK, usually at night, starving, then taxiing into the city to start the hunt for something made of plants to eat. It's hard to imagine now, but a mere ten years ago it was almost impossible to find organic restaurants in Manhattan, let alone something vegan or vegetarian. Sources were scarce, and it was even harder to locate something green to eat after a grueling flight across the country had sapped my veggie-hunting energy into oblivion.Then on one of those trips, as my good fortune would have it, I happened to be staying at a hotel on the Lower East Side. As I wandered the crowded streets of my temporary neighborhood resigned to the fact that I would probably have to settle for a bowl of MSG-laden Chinese veggies and rice for dinner, I suddenly saw something that would change my New York experience forever:There it was in all it's mini neon sign glory! "THE JUICE PRESS. ORGANIC, COLD-PRESSED JUICES". Not only had I stumbled across a juice bar (like we had on every other block back in LA) but these guys were badass enough to make and serve COLD-PRESSED juices and smoothies, in the tradition of the late, great Norman Walker. Having been an avid juicer and smoothie wizard myself since the early nineties, I was overjoyed to not only find someone doing it- but doing it oh so right. And thus began my obsession with The Juice Press, and all its glorious organic juices, and superfood snacks.Little did I know, nine years later I would finally track down the man behind it (and his then fiancé Teresa) to get the scoop on his whole juice journey.Our guest Marcus Antebi has since blossomed that tiny shop I first stumbled into at 70 East 1st Street into 71 more stores in 7 states, and counting. His mission is to make healthy, organic, plant-based foods available in a fast, and convenient manner for all who crave it.In this episode you'll learn how Marcus and his partner Michael Karsch created their empire and became the 'juice kings' of New York, and every industry secret nobody else dares to tell. Marcus and his wife Teresa treat the listener to a backstage pass to the current green juice revolution and explain what it takes to source the cleanest ingredients in the world, and why getting fruits and vegetables into your body is crucial to your health. As it turns out, not all juice is created equal, and Marcus teaches us exactly how and why in fascinating detail.If you or someone you know drink fresh-pressed juices and smoothies, you are about to become enlightened to this topic at a depth you never imagined possible.If you've not yet made organic, raw, nourishing plant-based drinks a part of your lifestyle, this show is sure to convince you to do so.Pass this episode along to someone who could use some vitality, energy, and cleansing power in their life.Here's to your greens!Luke Topics Discussed On Today's Episode: How Marcus got into the industry, and his motivation for starting the first store Why cold-pressed raw juice is so much more powerful than pasteurized The core values of the great juice movement, and what it takes to be successful Who is the juice pioneer Norman Walker, and why is he so important The best and worse juicers on the market for home use Why you want to avoid most stevia products  How Marcus dealt with the USDA & FDA food inspections as he was building his juice empire The challenge in finding local organic produce year-round  Why eating locally-grown food is not always the best option for your health  Teresa’s vegan lifestyle, pregnancy and home births The plant kingdom, and what chemicals are doing to our food & environment How to effectively treat deficiencies, and why women have cravings through pregnancy Protein as the problem, not the solution The top 5 ways to avoid getting cancer from your diet The reason processed sugar is the worse thing ever! Is a Ketogenic diet really healthy and sustainable?  The dangers of the Paleo diet  The amazing healing powers of a 3-day water fast   More about this episode.  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY: HEALTH IQ. Health IQ.

Have you ever found yourself repeating the same negative patterns in life, caught in a perpetual cycle of frustration and confusion, left without a clue as to how you end up in the same painful situations again and again?Perhaps you've had some persistent issues that were challenging enough to get you into therapy or counseling at some point. Maybe you read a few self-help books. You found yourself able to pinpoint, at least to some degree- the origins of your mental and emotional dysfunction. You might have even figured out that most of your destructive behavior has manifested at least to some degree as a result of trauma, neglect, or abuse you endured as a child. Most of the clues probably led back to your parents’ shortcomings as incompetent early 'life coaches.’ You learn a bit about yourself, and your subconscious motives and egoic drives. You have a few breakthroughs. You get to the root of your problems. But do you ever really CHANGE? Have you ever been able to entirely break free from your 'old' self, and become a genuinely new person as a result of your inner work?For most of us, myself included, many hours in therapy and self-help study might have resulted in some temporary emotional symptom relief, but for the most part, we pretty much stay the same in the long run, barring some hugely monumental sea change shift, usually brought about by some radical transformative event.Well in July 2017 I had such an event. It was a week-long intensive retreat held in Napa, California known as The Hoffman Process. I enrolled, drove up north, and committed to myself that no matter what, I was going to give every ounce of courage and willingness to this somewhat mysterious group experience in the redwoods. I had no idea that I was about to undergo such a profound self-renovation.The Hoffman Process was one of the most profound experiences of my life, which is why I made it my mission after completing the program to share it with you.What you are about to experience is an in-depth exploration of the process, and my time there with their international director, Tim Laurence. We thoroughly unpack how The Hoffman Process combines different spiritual and psychological modalities into one life-changing intensive, its origins, and why the heck it’s so damn effective in producing lasting change.By the end of this show, you will no doubt have a much deeper understanding of what your negative patterns are, how you got them, and most important of all- how to rid yourself of them.Please share this episode with someone who could use some help breaking free from the bondage of their past.Here's to your mental health,Luke Topics Discussed On Today's PART ONE Episode: How Tim first got involved in the Hoffman Process? Who was Bob Hoffman, and how did he come up with this stuff? The Quadinitry concept, and why it’s the key to unlocking our potential The Hoffman cycle of transformation: awareness, expression, compassion, forgiveness to generate new behaviors and deep inner change The importance of taking responsibility and establish healthy boundaries How we take on negative patterns and more importantly, how we break them What are some of the typical family roles that we take on, and how do they shape our lives as adults The stories we carry about our parents that may not be true and causes to be stuck How can we live from our more authentic, spiritual self? The phenomenon of transference, and how it hurts relationships The role that surrender has in the Hoffman Process, and how does it differ from submission and compliance and just giving up How the Process approaches addictions Does positive visualization actually work? And is it possible to break passed the subconscious limitations we impose upon ourselves by doing it What effects that being a facilitator had on him What are some tools that he personally uses when anxiety and pain comes up Lifestyle recommendations For more about this episode.Watch it on YOUTUBE!  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY: HEALTH IQ. Health IQ.

Did you know that the world we perceive with our five senses represents but a fraction of the reality that surrounds us? Beyond our standard perception lies an infinite realm, with dimensions of time snd space seldom experienced by most people. What would it be like if you were able to see, feel, and hear a metaphysical, phenomenal universe right here on earth? It's hard to imagine something you've not yet experienced, is it not? As we learn from this conversation, just because you can't experience the supernatural, doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. In this episode, we explore non-physical reality with modern day shaman and healer Mama Medicine, AKA Deborah Hanekamp. Since she was a little girl, Deborah has been able to see and experience realms of reality seldom perceptible by most people. Over the years she's learned to hone her skills and to channel her healing abilities in the most powerful of ways and to help people work through a vast spectrum of challenges both physical, mental, and spiritual. Her shamanic healing work as a Reiki Master and clairvoyant has gained her much notoriety in the consciousness community of New York City, and beyond. She's facilitated Medicine Reading ceremonies all over the world, in addition to her regular sessions in her Soho headquarters, Space By Mama Medicine.   If you've ever wondered if ghosts, auras, and astral travel were merely fantasies of human imagination or actual reality, this mind-bending, soul-healing conversation might be just what the Dr. ordered. Take a deep breath, sit back, and enjoy a journey into the unknown with Mama Medicine. If you know someone who could use some more wonder and magic in their lives, please do them a favor and pass this episode along. The world could use more plenty more beings of light.
