#118 - John Moyer - Hypnotist, Stand-Up Comic, & Writer of "The Singles Ward" Shares How Humor & The Mind Has Shaped A Great Life

Guest Bio:By combining twenty years of award-winning stand-up​ comedy experience, with a natural quick-wit and improvisational showmanship, John Moyer connects with every audience. His "approachable persona" is genuine. This authenticity drives his passion to deliver an entertainment experience to be remembered. ​To John, it's not just "a show." It's about engaging and interacting with audiences, to tap into what it means for them to experience their particular event from a point of view that makes it fun for everybody. Whatever the event requires- an emcee, a comedian or John's most popular entertainment experience, stage hypnosis, John's creative and outside-the-box approach, delivers.​Corporations, colleges, high schools, entertainment planners and a variety of private events have booked John, and continue to book him. John's stage hypnosis show in particular, is a unique, exciting experience. Hypnosis shows are an art-form that date back a couple hundred years, and John reboots that art-form for 2016. Back-dropped by modern music and shaped with pop culture, there's a frame of reference that's fun and relative to audience members of every age. More than this, however, John delivers and additional element that defines his hypnosis show for audiences: Every on-stage participant receives a lasting gift that harnesses the power of their minds for good. John's skills as a performer guarantee entertainment that's uplifting for everyone, in every audience. His training as a Master Hypnotist and a Certified Consulting Hypnotherapist (CCH) guarantees his volunteers access an area of their beliefs about themselves, that empowers them to attain goals and jettison negative habits that hold them back.

#117 - Court McGee - UFC Champion & Former Heroine Addict Gets Vulnerable On His Fight In & Out Of The Ring & How He Has Risen To The Top

Guest Bio:Beginning his professional career in 2007, Court McGee racked up a 9-1 record prior to auditioning to appear on Season 11 of The Ultimate Fighter. His only loss was to experienced veteran Jeremy Horn by Decision, and he counted TUF 9 finalist DaMarques Johnson among his victims. After being eliminated in a close Split Decision loss on the show, McGee was given a second chance when another cast member was injured and forced out of the competition. He made the most of it, battling his way to the live finale on June 19, 2010, where he defeated Kris McCray with a Rear Naked Choke to win the tournament and the UFC contract.A talented and relentless wrestler and submission fighter, McGee utilizes his technical boxing skills to trade with his opponents on the feet before seizing the opportunity to take the fight to the ground, where his physical strength and tenacity forces his opponent into a battle of wills that McGee usually wins. McGee’s win of TUF 11 was highly emotional, as the fighter has struggled with drug addiction and various personal issues for much of his life, and he has spoken passionately about wanting to be a role model to others who struggle with their own personal demons.McGee would pick up wins over Ryan Jensen and Dongi Yang at middleweight before dropping two straight to Costa Philippou and Nick Ring. McGee would then decide to drop down a weight class after the two losses. He would pick up his first win at welterweight with a decision over Josh Neer and then follow it up with another decision win over Ultimate Fighter winner Robert Whittaker

#115 - Drew Manning - Creator Of The Fit2Fat2Fit Challenge, Explains Why As A Personal Trainer He Purposely Gained 80 Pounds Just To Lose It

Guest Bio:Drew Manning had never been overweight in his life. He grew up with three sisters and seven brothers. He excelled in sports and his obsession with health grew from there. As a personal trainer, Drew was addicted to exercise…to having large muscles and six-pack abs. His idea of a “treat” was a spinach shake! “I was such a health addict that I invited the opportunity to both judge and attempt to help individuals who weren’t born with the ‘health-nut gene,’” says Drew. The goal for all his obese patients was the same: to get them to see that they were doing this to themselves and show them how to think, act and live differently. Certain clients listened and acted on his advice. More often than not, his clients were full of doubt that Drew was really there to help them overcome their struggles. “They saw me as someone who didn’t get it; I didn’t understand how hard it was to set aside the food or how difficult it was to go to the gym,” says Drew.One day, James, one of Lynn’s relatives, asked Drew to help him lose weight. At first, James followed Drew’s meal plans and pushed himself at every workout three times a week. After a few weeks, James decided to fight the battle of the bulge on his own. Drew thought, Something is missing, and wondered if he would ever be able to impact anyone other than himself. So Drew decided the best hope to understand weight-loss struggles would be to purposefully gain weight and get out of shape, with his wife’s support. Drew would stop following his meal plans and avoid physical exertion whenever possible for six months. Then he would journey back to fitness for the next six months. Drew launched a website that would chart his progress and blog about his journey from fit-to-fat-to-fit again. He invited followers to blog their life changes on their own. After months of planning, Drew ate his last healthy meal on May 5, 2011. He weighed 193 pounds, had a 34.5” waist and 17” neck.After just two months, Drew gained over 20 pounds and could not fit into his clothes. His self-esteem issues became an obsession and he feared everyone would notice every new pound. He hated taking any trips out of the house. Lynn, who is also physically fit, was shocked by his plunging self-image, thinking this journey was “on purpose” and that he would only endure a physical transformation. Drew became lazy and stopped helping around the house. He got winded easily and avoided playing with the kids. She says that it wasn’t the weight he put on but the lack of confidence that resulted. “It was as if his waistline and confidence were on the same sliding scale,” she says. At week 26, Drew weighed 268 pounds, had a 47.5” waist and 19” neck. He gained 75 pounds.“The process humbled me,” says Drew. “I became more empathetic about the emotional issues as well as the physical issue in losing weight.” He says the food was actually good and his body had begun to crave it. “Food addiction is powerful and real,” he says. The foods he found hard to give up to get fit again were Mountain Dew (he would drink two a day) and the bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal at night. He says it was hard getting back into the gym. Drew had never experienced having his belly touch the ground while doing a push up. Getting out of the lazy routine was brutal. While it seems like he didn’t gain or lose anything in his journey, Drew says mentally and emotionally he is different. “It’s amazing what you take for granted when you’re healthy,” he says. “The process humbled me.” On March 1, 2012, Drew’s blog went “dark,” and Lynn took over the daily video exercises so that on June 4, 2012, Drew’s results could be revealed on Good Morning America

#112 - Rachel Parcell - Recently Named #1 Social Influencer In Utah, Fashion Blogger Shares Her Journey As CEO of Her Own Clothing Line

Guest Bio:Rachel Parcell is a women's clothing brand specializing in feminine and timeless pieces that will be worn time and time again.The brand was founded in January 2016 by Rachel Parcell, of the blog Pink Peonies. Rachel's signature feminine, classic style has captured the hearts of women around the world and now she is bringing that signature style to life by creating a full custom designed brand.Rachel started her blog in 2011 and one of her very first posts featured a skirt that she designed and actually sewed herself (you can see that post here). At that time she only had about 100 followers but she let them know they could purchase the skirt and she would sew it for them. Quickly she realized her sewing skills were not up to par to create a piece of clothing that would fit another body type, other than her own.The idea of creating a clothing line was always something she has wanted to do from the time she was a young girl. A year after blogging she was offered a design job by a clothing brand based in Salt Lake City. There she learned what it takes to produce products. She was able to go to Asia and actually visit the factories where her designs were being produced. After a year of working for the brand, her blog began to grow so much so that she could no longer continue to balance both jobs. She chose to grow her own business and left the company. Fast forward two years, she was approached to create her own jewelry collection that would be set-up in the form of a licensing deal. She quickly learned that because she was not the one funding the business she did not have the final say in important business decisions, which ultimately led her to step away from the licensing deal. It was shortly after that she decided to follow her dreams, take a leap of faith and create her own brand that would be funded and operated by both her and her husband, Drew. After a few hours of convincing Drew, Rachel started designing her 'first' collection. It consisted of four different designs (2 skirt and 2 dresses). She hired a seamstress to help her create the patterns and samples but soon realized she needed more help on the manufacturing side than sample development. It was important to her to produce a high-quality product, with a great fit. After coming up against some stumbling blocks, she knew she needed to bring on a partner who understood manufacturing and was already producing apparel.She called her friend from the industry, Tan Safdar, and asked him if he was available for a lunch meeting. A few days later they met and Rachel pitched the idea to him, and from there Tan came on as her partner on the Rachel Parcell brand. Tan comes from a fashion background and owns a number of brands whose products Rach has worn before, so it was an easy decision to partner with him.Since that lunch, they've worked together tirelessly to create a brand they hope you'll love.
