You're Blank, What Now‪?‬ Marci Nettles

In this episode, Dr. Hayley Quinn and I discuss her experience with anxiety and depression when she was a young girl that led her to being extremely self-critical.  These thoughts and behaviors turned into a strong drive to perform at high levels in everything she did.  It was this high expectation of herself that forced her from being independent into complete dependency when she became chronically ill.   Dr Hayley D Quinn is a fellow human being, the anti-burnout business coach for service-based business owners; supervisor for psychologists & allied health professionals; trainer & clinical psychologist. She is also the host of the Welcome to Self® with Dr Hayley D Quinn podcast. Originally from the UK, and now based in Australia.  She is passionate about helping people move towards their business goals in a way that prioritizes sustainable ways of working and their own well-being so they can achieve the outcomes they want without burning out.  Hayley strongly believes that if you thrive your business will too.    I am your host, Marci Nettles. I have had a lifetime of opportunities where I had the choice to Breakdown or Breakthrough. It is my hope this Podcast may become your light in the darkness, as you listen to the stories of people I consider “heroes.” Each one had a point where they too had to choose to either Breakdown or Breakthrough! Working from home, with my husband/business partner, helping people around the world find new levels of success in their health and wellness, is part of what makes me tick!

In this episode, Myron Welik (THE JackHammer) and I talk about how a few poor decisions led to him losing his multi-million-dollar business in 2002 and left him paralyzed with self-doubt and depression. Even through this catastrophic experience, Myron refused to give up and his tenacity led to him being a “16-year over-night success!”   Myron Welik is known as a “Jackhammer” and has been in the business of making deals happen for 40 years. He is the host of the Jackhammer podcast and author of “The Jackhammer Effect''. His insatiable drive and resilience have been a hallmark of his long and successful career, where he lives by the saying “Never give up, stay passionate, and work hard because it’s never too late.”  Myron identified and brokered the deal that brought Heidi Klum and New Balance together, leading to the creation of the HKNB brand. He pitched products of his own design on the Home Shopping Network to 40 million viewers. In addition – He has negotiated strategic partnerships with well-known brands such as the New England Patriots, Lacost, FIFA, Madison Square Gardens, Radio City Music Hall, and Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum.  In 2018 he met a young real estate entrepreneur that impressed him, and Myron relentlessly pursued an opportunity for them to work together. By 2020, the partnership was in place. Three and half years later, his consulting work resulted in over $40 Million Dollars of real estate investments.  Today Myron is 70 going on 50 and nothing can stop him. He is proof that age is no barrier to reinventing yourself.    I am your host, Marci Nettles. I have had a lifetime of opportunities where I had the choice to Breakdown or Breakthrough.
