    Entrepreneur Wellness: Supplements, Stress, and Emotional Vitality with Jared St. Clair

    Entrepreneur Wellness: Supplements, Stress, and Emotional Vitality   "Modern medicine lies to us about that. It does say that we are symptoms to be managed, not people to be healed."    In Episode 480 of Richer Soul, Rocky Lalvani sits down with Jared St. Clair, owner of Vitality Nutrition and host of Vitality Radio, for a grounded conversation about what it really takes to rebuild health and "the promise of vitality." Jared shares how he grew up in a family health food store (working there from age 7, managing it at 15, and buying it at 22), why trust in modern medicine has eroded, and why he believes the body must be treated as a connected system, not isolated parts. The episode also dives into Jared's "Vital 5" supplement framework, the risks he associates with long-term use of PPIs like Nexium/Prilosec, and the deeper mindset work he calls "emotional vitality," including the story of his wife Jen's long journey from decades of psych meds to being off them for about six years.    7 Soul-Level Insights from Jared St. Clair: Jared learned "money up close" through entrepreneurship. He describes the up-and-down nature of entrepreneurial income, "leaner years" and "better years", and how that shaped his mindset growing up.  He took on real responsibility early and built mastery through repetition. Jared started working at 7, was helping customers by 14, managed the store at 15, hired his first employee at 16, and bought the business at 22.  Before the internet, natural health meant books + tradition, not PubMed. Jared explains that there was no internet and very little clinical study of nutraceuticals, so he learned through foundational books and lived experience.  Trust in medicine has eroded, and healthcare has become political. Jared says trust is "eroded substantially" and describes polarization after COVID, where the same intervention is perceived differently depending on who promotes it.  Treating the body like separate "parts" creates blind spots. Jared critiques fragmented care (specialists not challenging each other) and emphasizes that systems (like heart and lungs) are inseparable.  Jen's Story shows what Jared calls Emotional Vitality (supplements + diet + mindset). Jared shares that Jen had anxiety/depression since 13, was on psych meds most of her life, and after a long, cautious weaning process has been off pharma meds ~6 years and no longer deals with anxiety/depression the same way.  Start simple: "The Vital 5." Jared recommends a baseline for many adults over ~35: omega‑3s, magnesium (he favors bisglycinate for most people), a high-quality multivitamin, probiotics, and digestive enzymes.    Why This Conversation Matters A lot of people are doing "all the right things" and still feel stuck, tired, anxious, inflamed, or dependent on symptom-management strategies that never resolve the root. Jared's message is a reminder that vitality is built on foundations: digestion, nutrition, and mindset, and that the body is a connected system, not a collection of separate departments.  It's also a practical wake-up call: quality matters. If your supplement supply chain is unreliable, you can't trust your results, and Jared explains why he's cautious about where products come from.    Money Learning Jared grew up in an entrepreneurial household and learned firsthand that financial life can be cyclical. He describes feeling like his family could "figure it out," even when money was tight—and later stepped into ownership responsibility young, buying the store at 22 and building a life around serving customers over decades.    Key Takeaway You're not just a set of symptoms to manage. Jared challenges the "managed forever" mindset and shares what he believes creates real change: better inputs, better foundations, and better internal programming.    Guest Bio: Jared St. Clair Jared St. Clair is the owner of Vitality Nutrition and host of the Vitality Radio podcast. He says he started working in his family's health food store at age 7, began managing it at 15, hired his first employee at 16, and bought the store at 22. At the time of recording, he says he's 53, has owned the store for 31 years, and has worked there for 45 years.    Links Website: https://vitalitynutrition.com/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MyVitality/  https://www.facebook.com/vitalityradio/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vitalitynutritionbountiful/  https://www.instagram.com/vitalityradio/   Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/vitality-radio-podcast-with-jared-st-clair/id1499760048   If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to start with your health—start here: Build a base: try Jared's "Vital 5" framework as a starting point, then refine based on your body and needs.  Audit digestion + inputs: if you're relying on symptom suppression (like long-term reflux meds), revisit foundations and get support before changing anything.  Track your self-talk for 7 days: Jared's advice—notice how you describe yourself, because your brain treats it as truth.    #RicherSoul #LifeBeyondMoney #Vitality #Nutrition #Supplements #GutHealth #EmotionalVitality #Mindset   Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@richersoul Richer Soul Life Beyond Money.

    From Tony Robbins to $800K Lost: The Entrepreneur's Red-Flag Wake-Up Call with Dan Brault

    From Tony Robbins to $800K Lost: The Entrepreneur's Red-Flag Wake-Up Call   Money wasn't talked about… but Dan learned it anyway (through a rare high-school program)  The hidden cost of ignoring red flags: Dan's $800,000 lesson in business + real estate  Why "vision is the compass" — and how to design a business around strengths (not burnout)    Dan Brault joins Rocky Lalvani on Richer Soul for a real conversation about entrepreneurship, sales, discipline, and building a business that actually supports the life you want. Dan grew up around coaching—his dad owned a Tony Robbins franchise—and he started coaching himself as early as 12 or 13 in fitness and nutrition. But when it came to money, his family didn't talk about it much—until a high school business program gave him rare financial literacy early on.  This episode also goes deep into action vs. distraction, what "good sales" feels like (hint: it shouldn't feel salesy), and the hard-earned lessons Dan learned after losing over $800,000 across two projects—along with why entrepreneurs often overlook red flags when they're excited about the upside.    7 Soul-Level Insights from Dan Brault: Financial literacy can be taught—and gamifying it helps it stick. Dan describes learning business and money fundamentals through high school classes using computer simulations—covering things like credit, checkbooks, and how money works in real life.  Most people don't take action because distraction is easier (and engineered). Dan points out that social media and "instant dopamine" options are designed to hijack attention—meaning intentional choices are required to stay on track. Sales done right doesn't feel like sales. He shares how learning the Sandler sales methodology shaped his approach: real selling is a conversation, deep understanding, and mutual fit—not pressure or manipulation. Sales, leadership, and coaching are "cousins." The common skill under all three is communication—listening, understanding needs, and guiding people toward alignment (customers, employees, partners).  Entrepreneurs often miss red flags because optimism is part of the wiring. Dan describes how future-focused excitement ("this could be amazing") can cause people to minimize risks and assume they'll "figure it out," even when warning signs are present.  A business bottleneck often signals a strengths mismatch. When someone is forced to operate in an area of friction (weakness), procrastination and underperformance show up—creating recurring bottlenecks. Align roles with strengths and performance improves.  Track energy, not just time: the "time study" audit. Dan recommends a detailed time study for a week, noting interruptions and whether each activity gives positive/neutral/negative energy—then deciding what to do more of, delegate, redesign, or cut.    Why This Conversation Matters: A lot of entrepreneurs are "all gas and no brakes." That can create momentum—but it can also lead to ignoring risk, abdicating oversight, and building a company that consumes your life. Dan's story (including the $800k loss) is a powerful reminder: growth often comes through struggle—and systems, alignment, and vision are what help you survive the hard seasons without losing yourself.    Money Learning: Dan grew up in a household where money wasn't really discussed, but he gained a strong foundation in money management through high school business education. Later, he experienced the high-stakes reality of entrepreneurship when two projects went sideways and he lost over $800,000, forcing him to liquidate assets and make major sacrifices to recover.   Key Takeaway: Your business won't outgrow who you are as a person—so if you want more freedom, clarity, and profit, you need a compelling vision, energy-aware systems, and work designed around strengths. As Dan puts it: "Vision is the compass."    Guest Bio: Dan Brault Dan Brault grew up in the coaching world—his dad owned a Tony Robbins franchise and later did executive coaching; his uncle served as the global chairman of EO (Entrepreneurs' Organization). Dan began coaching at 12–13 in fitness and nutrition, later learned the Sandler sales method during a financial services internship, and went on to coach business owners through his company LeaderOS, helping them build businesses that create more freedom, clarity, and profit.    Links: Website: LeaderOS.co Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/daniel.brault Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itsdanbrault/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/grateful-passionate-driven/   If you're feeling stretched thin, stuck in constant firefighting, or you're not sure where your time is actually going—start here: Listen to Ep 479 and pay attention to the "energy time study" idea and the "vision is the compass" framework.  This week, do a simple 5-day time + energy audit: track what you do, what interrupts you, and what drains you vs. fuels you—then cut or delegate one energy-drainer.  And if you want help turning that clarity into a business that gives you more freedom, use the links above to connect with Dan and learn more about his work through LeaderOS.    #RicherSoul #LifeBeyondMoney #EntrepreneurMindset #BusinessCoaching #LeadershipDevelopment #SalesTraining #SandlerSales #StrengthsBasedLeadership #TimeManagement #EnergyManagement #VisionAndGoals #PersonalDevelopment #EntrepreneurLife #BusinessSystems #DecisionMaking #RealEstateInvesting #LessonsLearned #BusinessGrowth #TakeAction #FocusAndDiscipline    Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@richersoul Richer Soul Life Beyond Money.

    Mitochondria, Metabolism & Modern Medicine with Dr. William Haas

    Mitochondria, Metabolism & Modern Medicine   When "Everything Looks Normal"… But You Don't Feel Normal The Cellular Health Conversation Most People Never Get Why Your Energy, Hormones, and Metabolism Start at the Mitochondria   You can be "doing everything right"… and still feel wiped out by 2 p.m.  You can have "normal" labs… and still feel like something is off.    In this episode of Richer Soul, Rocky sits down with Dr. William Haas to explore what modern medicine often misses: cellular dysfunction, mitochondrial health, gut integrity, hormones, toxins, and recovery tools like hyperbaric oxygen—especially for high performers who hit the wall despite clean living.  "Medical school is teaching how to manage disease. And that was a rude awakening."    5 Soul-Level Insights from Dr. William Haas: (This isn't about chasing more hacks. It's about understanding what your body is telling you.)  Mitochondria aren't just "energy." Dr. Haas explains mitochondria produce ATP (your energy currency) and influence inflammation and immune pathways—so mitochondrial dysfunction can ripple into far more than fatigue.  Some "normal" meds can quietly derail cellular performance. He specifically calls out antibiotics like Cipro and Levoquin as "terrible" for mitochondrial health, notes OTC anti-inflammatories can "uncouple" mitochondria, and discusses metformin potentially impacting mitochondria and contributing to B12 deficiency.  Food sensitivities may be a symptom, not the root cause. When people "light up like a Christmas tree" on food sensitivity testing, Dr. Haas says it often points to gut barrier issues ("leaky gut")—and that fixing the gut can make sensitivities go away.  Hormones don't fail in isolation—stress and sleep shape the outcome. He emphasizes starting with fundamentals like sleep, alcohol reduction, and stress management, and explains "cortisol steal" where high stress drives cortisol production at the expense of testosterone.  Metabolism isn't magic: build lean muscle. When asked how to increase metabolic rate, Dr. Haas gives the simplest (and most effective) answer: build lean muscle mass.    Why This Conversation Matters: Dr. Haas shares that in his 40s—while scaling his medical practice, starting another business helping other doctors, and growing his family—fatigue hit hard, even while he was "doing the right things." It became a wake-up moment that something at a cellular level was off.  That experience pushed him deeper into what he describes as cellular medicine: mitochondria, redox/repair pathways, hormones, toxins, and tools like hyperbaric oxygen.  And it highlights a hard truth for high performers: If your health collapses, your freedom collapses with it.    Money Learning: Dr. Haas also touches a reality most people don't think about: Becoming a doctor can delay earning for a long time. He says he was about 38 when he made his first "real" doctor paycheck—and contrasts that with his brother who started earning right after college.  Rocky adds an important point: sometimes the best decisions happen outside the traditional insurance-driven system—when you can get proactive testing and establish baselines, rather than waiting until the system says you're "sick enough" to qualify.    Key Takeaway: If you want more energy, better recovery, and a longer health span, you can't only focus on symptoms—you have to protect the foundations: mitochondria, gut function, hormones, and lean muscle mass.    Guest Bio: Dr. William Haas: Dr. William Haas is trained in family practice and describes his path into integrative medicine, which he frames as focusing on prevention, food as medicine, the mind-body connection, and pulling tools from different healing modalities. He also mentions training/mentorship with Andrew Weil.  In this episode, he discusses deeper evaluation beyond basic labs, including gut function/microbiome, micronutrients, hormones, inflammation, and toxins such as mycotoxins/mold, microplastics, and heavy metals.    Links: Website: https://vyvewellness.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/VYVEWellness/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vyvewellness YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@VYVEWellness Blog: https://vyvewellness.com/blog/   Ready to Go Deeper?

    From Trauma to Triumph: How Spiritual Awakening Transformed Smoke Wallin's Business and Life

    From Trauma to Triumph: How Spiritual Awakening Transformed Business and Life   The Rags-to-Riches Round Trip Nobody Talks About When Success Keeps Vanishing You've built the business. Raised the capital. Made the millions. So why does it keep slipping away? And more importantlywhy does nothing feel like "enough"? Here's a truth most entrepreneurs never want to face: It's not your strategy. It's not your market. It's what's buried inside you.   In this raw and transformative episode of Richer Soul, we sit down with Smoke Wallin, entrepreneur, M&A advisor, and spiritual guide who made—and lost—$50-100 million multiple times. But this isn't a story about making money. It's about discovering why all the wealth in the world couldn't turn off the "loud fan" of anxiety constantly running in the back of his head. Until one day in Nepal, at Buddha's birthplace, everything changed.   5 Soul-Level Insights from Smoke Wallin: (This isn't about making more money. It's about freeing yourself from what's driving you.) Unhealed trauma doesn't just hurt—it sabotages. Smoke kept attracting business partners who would betray him. Why? Because betrayal was his unhealed childhood wound. His subconscious kept recreating the pattern until he faced it head-on. You can achieve massive success while suffering invisibly. Smoke became CFO of a billion-dollar company at 29, raised $110 million—all while living in constant anxiety he didn't even recognize. High achievers are masters at compartmentalizing pain. Forgiveness is freedom—for you, not them. Smoke's healing breakthrough came when he made a deal with his higher self: "If I can remember what happened, I'll forgive." That commitment unlocked everything. "Forgiveness is for the forgiver, not the forgiven." Spiritual awakening is 1% breakthrough, 99% daily integration. Plant medicine opened the door. But Smoke read 400+ books, practiced daily meditation, eliminated negative inputs, and consciously reprogrammed his subconscious. That's where real transformation lives. Money is neutral—your attachment is the prison. Once you're non-attached, you can fully experience wealth without being controlled by it. Smoke now channels resources to Dignity Moves (helping homeless families) and SACRED (supporting child abuse survivors)—because significance matters more than accumulation.   Why This Conversation Matters: Most entrepreneurs chase the next milestone thinking that will finally deliver peace. The next exit. The next $10 million. The next validation. But Smoke's journey reveals a deeper truth: External success means nothing if you're fundamentally unfree internally. This episode is an invitation to stop running—and start healing.   Money Learning: What if your wealth-building is driven by wounds, not wisdom? Smoke's pattern of building and losing fortunes wasn't about bad luck or bad partners. It was about unresolved childhood trauma manifesting in business relationships. For many driven entrepreneurs, the relentless pursuit of "more" is actually an attempt to fill a void, prove worth, or escape pain they've never faced. This episode invites you to ask: How much is enough? And what am I really running from? By healing the wounds beneath your drive, you don't lose your ambition—you gain clarity, peace, and the ability to build wealth that actually serves your life instead of consuming it.   Key Takeaway: Smoke Wallin made—and lost—$50-100 million multiple times because unhealed childhood trauma kept sabotaging his business relationships. Despite becoming CFO of a billion-dollar company at 29, he lived in constant anxiety until a spiritual awakening in Nepal and plant medicine ceremonies unlocked decades of buried memories. His breakthrough insight: "Forgiveness is for the forgiver, not the forgiven"—once he forgave, the anxiety vanished and he quit drinking without trying. Now living in "peace and joy at all times," Smoke helps entrepreneurs answer the question most can't: "How much is enough?"—proving that real wealth isn't in your bank account, it's in your soul.   Guest Bio: Smoke Wallin is an entrepreneur, M&A advisor, and spiritual guide based in Sedona, Arizona. He became CFO of a billion-dollar business at age 29, raised $110 million in the bond market, and has built and exited multiple companies across various industries. After a profound spiritual awakening triggered by a Kundalini experience at Buddha's birthplace in Nepal, Smoke has dedicated himself to helping entrepreneurs navigate both the business and existential dimensions of major exits. He co-founded Dignity Moves, a homeless initiative building villages across California, and serves on the board of SACRED, supporting families affected by child sexual abuse. A 23-year member of YPO (Young Presidents' Organization), Smoke is working on a forthcoming book offering an entrepreneur's guide to spiritual awakening.   Links: Podcast Home & All Platforms https://thesmoketrail.transistor.fm YouTube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/@SmokeWallinOfficial Substack  Full episodes + Pre-Show Q&As + Community & Poetry & Essays https://smokewallin.substack.com/ LinkedIn – Primary promotion & newsletter- https://www.linkedin.com/build-relation/newsletter-follow?entityUrn=7055158311603601408 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/smokewallin Instagram https://www.instagram.com/smoketrailpodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/smokewallin X (Twitter) https://x.com/TheSmokeTrail1 X: https://x.com/SmokeWallin TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@smokewallin Facebook Podcast Home https://www.facebook.com/DrinkTechnology   Stop chasing the next milestone, hoping it will finally deliver peace.

    Happy Soul, Hungry Mind: Why Success Still Feels Empty with Ravi Kathuria

    Happy Soul, Hungry Mind: Why Success Still Feels Empty   "I made the money. And where is the happiness? Where is happiness? Can somebody answer that? Society, parents, friends, everybody said, make money, make money. Don't think about anything else. Work like a dog, make money. I made the money. And where is the happiness?" You've hit the number. The bank balance looks good. You've done everything "right." So why does something still feel... empty? In this profound Richer Soul episode, author and executive coach Ravi Kathuria reveals why even a million dollars a month can't buy peace and shares an ancient parable that exposes the invisible prison keeping you from true fulfillment.   Key Insights: Your "rotten fish" owns you, because whether it's a business, career, or bank account, the very thing you chase for happiness often becomes the bubble trapping you from experiencing real peace and freedom. Money with "nuisance value" destroys wealth, as earning income that brings tension, pressure, or robs your peace isn't true prosperity—it's a prison with a good view. Self-worth tied to net worth creates endless suffering, because even billionaires like Elon Musk chase trillion-dollar valuations not for money, but for external validation they'll never fully receive. Spirituality is non-religious and available to everyone, as it's simply "the experience of your own soul"—no gurus, pilgrimages, scriptures, or beliefs required, just the ability to quiet your mind. Your mind is both tool and obstacle, because while it's essential for navigating the material world, it acts as a "bouncer" preventing you from accessing the infinite spiritual energy already within you. Quieting the mind isn't meditation—it IS the gateway, and when your thoughts become still, your soul automatically shines through like the sun emerging from behind clouds, requiring no special techniques or effort.   Money Learning from Ravi: Ravi grew up in a middle-class family in India, where his father worked for the government. They had enough to live comfortably—food, vacations, a modest car—but never splurged on luxury. What stayed with Ravi wasn't the amount of money they had, but his father's philosophy: never earn money that creates "nuisance value." His father never made financial decisions that brought tension, pressure, or potential unhappiness to the family. That principle shaped Ravi's entire relationship with money: he wants to earn money that has positive energy, that uplifts life rather than creates more worries. Today, coaching CEOs and wealthy individuals, he sees the irony: people with all the money in the world still worried about money because they've lost sight of what money is actually for.   Key Discussion Points: Why successful people ask "Where is the happiness that money promised?" The danger of money that creates "nuisance value" in your life The client making $1 million per month who drives 3.5 hours to save $50 Why Elon Musk, worth $400+ billion, is fighting for another $400 billion The Ancient Parable: The poor fish seller who couldn't sleep in the king's palace How she missed her "rotten fish" and rejected luxury for familiar discomfort The king's profound realization: "My kingdom is MY rotten fish" What is YOUR rotten fish? What bubble are you trapped in? Why self-worth should never be tied to net worth The critical difference between being "frugal" and being "cheap" Redefining Spirituality: "Spirituality is the experience of your own soul" Why spirituality is NON-RELIGIOUS and has nothing to do with God Spirituality is in your DNA—it's not a choice, it's your birthright The Mind Paradox: Your mind helps you navigate the material world but acts as a "bouncer" blocking spiritual access How to quiet the mind: It's simpler than you think Meditation is NOT concentration, music, mantras, or focusing on thoughts Meditation is something that HAPPENS to you when your mind becomes still The automatic phenomenon: When clouds dissipate, the sun shines through Why you don't need gurus, pilgrimages, scriptures, or anyone's blessing Who owns who: Do you own your business or does your business own you? The power of learning to "let go of your rotten fish" Starting simple: Put down your phone, lie in bed quietly, walk in nature How to create "nothing time" and mind purge exercises Making peace a daily practice, like brushing your teeth Why financial success without inner peace is still poverty The question that changes everything: "What would you do if you had all the money?"   Key Takeaway: The palace won't make you happy if you're still clutching your basket of fish. True wealth isn't about the size of your bank account—it's about freeing yourself from the mental prison of constant chasing, validation-seeking, and identifying your worth with your net worth. When you learn to quiet your mind and experience your own soul, you discover the ultimate gift: inner peace that no amount of money can buy and no external circumstance can take away.   Bio: Ravi Kathuria is the author of Happy Soul Hungry Mind, a groundbreaking book that bridges the gap between material success and spiritual fulfillment. Born and raised in India for the first 25 years of his life, Ravi now lives in Houston, Texas, where he works as an executive coach and mentor to CEOs and highly successful business leaders. His unique approach combines Eastern spiritual wisdom with Western business pragmatism, helping clients break free from the "now what?" trap that follows financial success. Ravi's philosophy is refreshingly simple: spirituality is the experience of your own soul—nothing more, nothing less. It requires no religion, no guru, no special rituals. Through his coaching, speaking, and writing, Ravi helps people understand that the peace, happiness, and fulfillment they've been chasing externally has been within them all along, waiting to be discovered through the simple practice of quieting the mind.   Links: Website: SpiritualityWithin.com SOCIAL MEDIA: https://www.facebook.com/SpiritualityWithin/   https://forms.gle/HBqbGrZKfXeMSTyeA     https://x.com/SpiritualityWit     https://www.youtube.com/@SpiritualityWithin       #RicherSoul #InnerW ealth #MoneyMindset #Spirituality #Meditation #LifeBeyondMoney #HappySoulHungryMind #ExecutiveCoaching #PersonalFreedom #MindfulLiving #SoulSearching #FinancialFreedom #LifePurpose #Consciousness #InnerPeace   Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@richersoul Richer Soul Life Beyond Money.

    Why the System Feels Rigged And How to Live Free Anyway with Paul Musson

    Why the System Feels Rigged And How to Live Free Anyway   Many successful people carry a quiet, unsettling thought they rarely say out loud: "I've done everything right… so why does this still feel so hard?"   In this Richer Soul conversation, Rocky sits down with veteran investor and author Paul Musson to explore why so many people feel financially and emotionally squeezed — even when they're disciplined, intelligent, and responsible.   Key Takeaways from the Conversation: Money isn't wealth. Real wealth comes from creating value, not inflated prices or easy debt. Rising assets don't equal progress. Asset inflation often creates stress and division, not security. You don't need certainty to live well. Clarity and values matter more than predicting outcomes. Success without alignment feels empty. When money leads, peace falls behind. A rich life starts within. Inner clarity and integrity matter more than external systems.   Money Learning from Paul Musson: Money doesn't create wealth — capital does. When wealth comes from rising asset prices or easy debt instead of real contribution and productivity, people feel richer on paper but poorer in peace. Paul reminds us that true financial wellbeing comes from creating value, saving and investing thoughtfully, and resisting the pressure to chase inflated outcomes. When you focus on capital creation over consumption, money becomes a tool for stability and freedom — not a source of stress or fear.   Key Takeaway: You don't need to beat the system to live a rich life. You need to understand it — release what was never yours to control — and choose who you want to be inside it. True wealth begins with clarity, integrity, and peace.   Bio: Paul Musson is an investment veteran with over 30 years of experience, including leading the $10 billion Mackenzie Ivy Funds. Now, through his blog and podcast, Paulitical Economy, he cuts through the jargon to explain the forces shaping our money and future. He gives people a voice by helping them understand the monetary system, what policymakers are doing, and what we need to demand from them to create real change.   Links: Website: https://paddingtoncapitalmgmt.com/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/paddingtoncap  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulbmusson/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/paddin   This episode isn't about blaming the system.

    How to Stay Strong to 100: Longevity, Regenerative Medicine, and Mobility with Dr. Tommy Rhee

    How to Stay Strong to 100: Longevity, Regenerative Medicine, and Mobility   Most people say they want to live a long life. Very few ask the better question: what kind of body and energy will I have at 80, 90, or 100? In this episode of Richer Soul, Dr. Tommy Rhee shares what he has learned from decades working with elite athletes, professional sports teams, and now patients using regenerative medicine and topical stem cell therapies. We talk about the realities of aging, why exercise is still the number one longevity tool, the hidden damage of chronic inflammation, and how emerging technologies might help us stay active and mobile much longer than previous generations.   Core Insights from the Conversation: Exercise Is the Foundation of Longevity. Consistent movement protects joints, improves circulation, and activates the body's natural repair systems. No supplement or therapy replaces exercise as a driver of long-term health. Chronic Inflammation Accelerates Aging. Acute inflammation heals. Chronic inflammation slowly breaks the body down, damaging joints, energy levels, and long-term mobility. Circulation Determines Recovery. Healing depends on flow. Healthy arterial, venous, and lymphatic circulation deliver nutrients and remove waste, allowing tissues to repair more efficiently. Regenerative Medicine Is Becoming Non-Invasive. Cell-free regenerative topical therapies aim to support healing without injections, downtime, or invasive procedures, making recovery more accessible earlier in the aging process. Longevity Requires a "Never Quit" Mindset. Health isn't built through perfection. It's built by continuing to move, eat well, and recover even when progress feels slow or uneven.   Money Learning from Dr. Tommy Rhee: Your health is one of the highest-ROI investments you can make. Dr. Tommy Rhee reinforces that prevention—consistent exercise, reducing inflammation, improving circulation, and supporting your body's natural repair systems—costs far less than the medical bills, downtime, and lost earning potential that come from neglect. Strong mobility and longevity aren't just physical assets; they protect your financial future by reducing long-term healthcare expenses and preserving your ability to work, create, and enjoy life.   Key Takeaway: You do not have to choose between living long and living well. With consistent movement, smarter food choices, better circulation, and an open mind toward regenerative therapies, you can build a body that still feels capable at 80, 90, or even 100. The most important piece is not perfection, it is refusing to quit on your health.   Bio: Dr. Tommy Rhee is a licensed sports chiropractor and pioneer in regenerative medicine with nearly two decades of experience working with elite and professional athletes. He has served as the official team chiropractor for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and began his career at UCLA Athletics, treating Division I football, soccer, and track athletes. He is the Founder and CEO of RheeGen®, the world's first cell-free regenerative topical therapy, designed as a non-invasive alternative to injection-based stem cell procedures. Dr. Rhee is also the author of The Future of Regenerative Medicine, where he explores how topical stem cell technologies may reshape healing, recovery, and longevity. Known for blending sports medicine, biomechanics, and regenerative science, Dr. Rhee continues to practice in Tampa, Florida, helping patients and athletes stay active, recover faster, and move well as they age.   Links: Website: www.RheeGen.com Facebook: RheeGen: https://www.facebook.com/p/RheeGen-61552362351212/ Instagram: Rhee.gen: https://www.instagram.com/rhee.gen/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drtommyrhee/ Book: The Future of Regenerative Medicine: Unlocking the Potential of Topical Stem Cell Therapy:  https://a.co/d/2eUa3Zx   If this conversation sparked you to think differently about aging, here's your next step: choose one upgrade in movement, one upgrade in food, and one upgrade in recovery, and commit to them for the next 90 days.

    Super Performance with George Pesansky

    Super Performance   From Firefighting to Super Performance: How Systems Free You From…   Most owners secretly know the truth: their business only runs well when they're watching. The minute they step away, problems surface, customers get frustrated, and the "superhero" has to swoop back in. In this Richer Soul episode, operations coach and author George Pesansky shares how to escape that trap by building systems that work without you — so your business performs at a high level and your life gets a lot richer in the process.   Key Insights:  Vision, Strategy, and Execution must align because most businesses fail not from lack of effort, but from excelling at only two of the three while true profit and scale happen when all three work together.  The "golden hour" reveals your best systems, and instead of constantly fixing what's broken, real growth comes from identifying when work flows smoothly and replicating those conditions across the day. The Dunning–Kruger Effect explains why leaders get blindsided, as overconfidence on "Mount Stupid" often hides gaps in operations, people, or finance until painful failure forces real learning. Superhero employees are a warning sign, not a strength, because when a business depends on one person to fix everything, it signals fragile systems, hidden waste, and serious key-person risk. Money is stored time, not success, and many leaders stay trapped in the prison of expectations by chasing revenue instead of using profit to reclaim freedom, focus, and a life outside the business. Failing faster accelerates growth, because waiting for certainty keeps owners stuck in broken processes and bad decisions that intentional learning and rapid experimentation would quickly replace.   Money Learning from George: George reframes money as nothing more than "an equivalent for time," a tool meant to buy back space for rest, creativity, and meaningful living—not fuel an endless treadmill of effort. He warns that many owners chase revenue that actually costs them time and increases friction, while true profit comes from building systems that give you your life back. His core message is simple: use money to create freedom, not pressure, and focus on investments that return time, clarity, and peace rather than more stress.   Key Takeaway: High performance isn't about working harder; it's about building systems that turn your best moments into your normal day. When you understand the real root causes of success, stop relying on superheroes, and use money to buy back time, your business stops owning you — and starts serving the life you actually want.   Bio: George Pesansky is a seasoned expert in operational excellence, with a career spanning over three decades in leadership, executive coaching, and performance optimization. His passion lies in empowering individuals and organizations to reach their full potential through clarity, focus, and actionable strategies. George's commitment to improving outcomes and his strategic, action-oriented mindset have made him a sought-after consultant and thought leader in the field. His work continues to inspire and guide those seeking to elevate their performance and achieve superperformance in their personal and professional lives. George is also the founder of Capacity2Care, a nonprofit organization dedicated to encouraging superperformers to donate their talent, not just their time, to create better outcomes in their communities by driving deliberate improvement in charities.   Links: www.myblendedlearning.com    LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deliberateimprovement/   If you're ready to move from firefighting to true super performance in your business — with clear numbers, better systems, and more time for the rest of your life — let's talk.
