#215 Flowing with Mozez

Shannon’s final interview for this season of the Bruce Lee Podcast is with a deep and generous soul named Mozez Wright. You may know Mozez’s work from his time fronting the musical group Zero7. His smooth and transcendent vocal delivery found him an instant following, and he has gone on to co-write, record and tour with Nightmares On Wax as well as release a number of solo projects on his own record label Numen Records. But Shannon knows Mozez because he has been a good friend of the Bruce Lee Family Company for a number of years even though this is the first time Shannon has had the pleasure of speaking with him. Mozez is a Bruce Lee admirer and supporter and he has generously allowed us to use his music for some our videos and posts from time to time. He has also formed a bond of friendship with one of our own, Chris Husband, who creative directs a number of areas for the Bruce Lee Family Company. Shannon was really excited to chat with Mozez because firstly, she loves his music (please check out the show notes for more about Mozez and how to connect with him and his music), but also because she feels like he’s been part of the Bruce Lee family for a while and their time to chat was just a matter of the stars aligning and they finally have. Please take a listen to this wise and wonderful soul as Shannon and Mozez talk about life’s ups and downs and how to keep our spirits high. This is Mozez on the Bruce Lee Podcast!

From there, Cal invited Shannon on his podcast Big Questions and Shannon is pleased to say their friendship has continued from there. His call to action of “Change your Questions and Change your Life” is an amazing perspective shift for those looking to change their trajectory. So when it came time for Shannon to ask people to read her book and offer their thoughts, Cal was top of her list, and he graciously undertook the task. Cal is a force to be reckoned with. He is an amazing speaker, writer, podcaster, and quester! For what his latest quest is, listen to this episode.

#212 Flowing with Ben Bruno

Welcome to 2021, everyone. Shannon is excited to kick off the new year with a chat with personal trainer, educator, speaker and consultant, Ben Bruno. Ben works with an extremely wide range of clients from professional athletes, actors, musicians, models and even his mom. Ben is also passionate about educating people and has published or been featured in over 200 publications such as Men’s Health, Women’s Health, Sports Illustrated and ESPN. He also consults with several different sports organizations regarding their strength and conditioning programs and is regularly featured on the Today Show. Shannon and Bruno didn’t know each other prior to this conversation, but as they chatted, Shannon was reminded again and again of some of her father’s own principles and philosophies, such as, being the eternal student, individualized training to fit your needs, quality over quantity, and setting goals and applying oneself. But what Shannon really appreciated most about Ben was his laid back yet committed attitude and his desire to be practical and fun while achieving results. He made her want to train with him! So listen in for some thoughts on Bruce Lee’s fitness through the eyes of a professional trainer and to get some much needed inspiration for the year ahead. Shannon feels like we could all use a little motivation and strength as this year kicks off so who better to talk to than trainer, Ben Bruno!

#211 Flowing with Tony LeRoy

This episode of the Bruce Lee Podcast is a treat for Shannon and she hopes it will be a treat for you too. Today Shannon is having a chat with intuitive counselor and one of her closest friends, Tony LeRoy. Tony and Shannon have known each other for about 24 years. She first met Tony when she went to have a session with him way back in her twenties. Our session was so intense that he called Shannon up to check in on her a few days later and their friendship began. This episode is the last one in 2020 and will air during the holiday season and so Shannon thought it was only fitting that she chat with someone that she loves as well as someone who is a spiritual advisor. Tony helps clients get in touch with their true selves, navigate the roads ahead and heal their spirits; he holds classes on how to work with and increase your intuition, connect with your spirit guides and embrace your future self, and he helps people break challenging thought and behavior patterns using a technique called BWRT. To learn more about Tony and how to connect with him, please check out the show notes for this episode. Tony is a lovely human being and kindred soul to Shannon. She is so pleased to share this fun and meaningful conversation (cuz that’s how they do when the two of them are together) with this bright light on the planet, Tony Leroy, for this, the last episode of the Bruce Lee Podcast for 2020. Enjoy! Learn more about Tony Leroy in the show notes and listen to other episodes on Brucelee.com/Podcast

#210 Flowing with Randall Park

On this week’s episode of the Bruce Lee Podcast, Shannon had the absolute pleasure of speaking with actor, writer, director and producer Randall Park. You may know Randall from such hits as the ABC sitcom Fresh Off the Boat, or Netflix’s Always Be My Maybe as well as for characters he portrayed in Marvel’s Ant-Man and the Wasp and DC’s Aquaman. Shannon certainly knew Randall’s work but she had never met Randall until they sat down to chat for the podcast, and Shannon feels like she walked away from the conversation with a new friend. Randall is a warm and introspective soul and Shannon is so grateful for his vulnerability and willingness to talk Bruce Lee, philosophy and life freely with her. Listen in and you’ll hear what Shannon feels is a really easeful and lovely conversation that we can all connect with as they talk about, among other things, the challenges of being oneself with the amazing Randall Park.

This week marks the final episode of season 2 of our show Warrior on Cinemax, and so it is only fitting that Shannon’s guest this week is actress and one of the stars of Warrior, Olivia Cheng. Shannon met Olivia when she auditioned for Warrior. She came in and read for two different parts and she was such a pro.

If you haven’t seen the show, she is marvelous as the gutsy and smooth Ah Toy. But Shannon is not just speaking to Olivia on the podcast just because she’s in Warrior.

Olivia has a background in journalism and has appeared on the shows Broken Trail and Netflix’s Marco Polo, to name a few. She is a soulful, smart, and fun woman who is an activist for change in Hollywood and in the world.
