    Be You, Not a Copycat: Franklin Vanderbilt | Ep.113

    Drummer Franklin Vanderbilt spent 15 years playing with Lenny Kravitz, worked with Robby Krieger of The Doors, and has shared stages and studios with everyone from Chaka Khan to Stevie Wonder. Now he's stepping out front with his debut album Inside My Silence — an album he had to live 20 years to write. In this episode of The Inner Circle On Air, he joins Mike in the studio to talk creative ownership, the LOCK Theory, staying authentic when everything is going artificial, and the real reason it took two decades to make his first record. He also tells the story of a childhood that gave him no choice but drums — crawling to his mother's pots and pans before his father bought him his first orange Ludwig kit — and the moment his godfather looked at him and said, "You're a rock drummer, not a jazz drummer. Get in the car." Topics covered: playing with Lenny Kravitz, Robby Krieger and The Doors, Chaka Khan, Stanley Clarke, Stevie Wonder · the LOCK Theory (Listening, Observing, Comprehension, Knowledge) · ownership as the name of the game in music · the making of Inside My Silence with producer Alan Parsons and a guest list of legends · the album photo shoot with iconic rock photographer Henry Diltz on LA's 6th Street Bridge · the "Thank God for Rock and Roll" brand · why AI can't replace the human soul · and a full-circle return to Chicago to perform on WGN.

    Hollywood Legend, Real & Unfiltered: Lorenzo Lamas | Ep. 112

    From crashing his way into Grease thanks to his mom Arlene Dahl and a chance meeting at the Governor's Ball after the 1977 Academy Awards... to beating out Harry Hamlin for Lance on Falcon Crest at just 21... to Stephen J. Cannell handing him the Renegade role on a motorcycle that made his young son the happiest kid in school — Lorenzo shares the real stories behind five decades in Hollywood. And then there's the part most people DON'T know: when the phone stopped ringing, Lorenzo walked away from acting and spent 10 years as a commercial helicopter pilot — flying tourists over the Grand Canyon and promising his chief pilot he'd turn down any acting job that conflicted with the flight schedule. He never broke that promise. This one's got it all: his legendary parents (Fernando Lamas, Arlene Dahl, stepmom Esther Williams), why he almost became a veterinarian instead, martial arts since 1979, his magical A-frame house in Laurel Canyon, being a dad to six kids (with his now-famous daughter Shayne), his 40 years with the World Children's Transplant Fund, and the words of wisdom he leaves us with: "Every day above ground is a good day."

    "No" Is Empowerment: Jacob Pacheco | Ep. 111

    The ocean is huge. It's dark, it's scary. It's passion, it's ambition. For Team USA men's para-surf co-captain Jacob Pacheco, the water is also where he glued his broken pieces back together. Doctors predicted he'd be wheelchair-bound by 16. Instead, he spent 17 years chasing Team USA across 7 different sports, waited 7 more to make the team in 2023 — and now he surfed his way into the history books as a prone surfer. This one goes deep into adversity, advocacy, boundaries, and the power of saying "No." Instagram: @ProneToRide TicTok: @JacobTheStokedSurfer You Tube; @pronetoride Website: https://www.theinnercircleonair.com/ Instagram: @mikecormieronair

    20% Vision. 100% Champion - Isaac Jean-Paul | Ep. 110

    In this episode of The Inner Circle On Air, host Mike Cormier sits down with professional track & field athlete Isaac Jean-Paul (IJP). Diagnosed with a rare eye condition (juvenile Retinoschisis) at age two, Isaac refused to let a label define him. He went on to become a 5-time All-American at Lewis University, a national champion in the high jump (7'3"), and a multiple-time USA Paralympic champion — taking home bronze in Tokyo and silver in Paris in the long jump, with his sights set on gold at LA 2028. Isaac opens up about finding his purpose, breaking free from the boxes society puts us in, and the meaning behind his "People's Medal" — which carries a real piece of the Eiffel Tower. Mike also shares his own story of building a transportation network to help young adults with disabilities live self-determined lives, and Isaac reveals the moment at the Grand Canyon that inspired his book, Wings.

    "OFFSCRIPT" Recipies for Success Larry Namer | Ep.108

    E! Entertainment co-founder Larry Namer didn't build a $10 billion empire by "following his passion" — he built it with $2.5 million, 31 unpaid interns, and a movie-trailer channel everyone told him was crazy. In this episode of Inner Circle On Air, Larry gets real about why "follow your passion" is the worst career advice, why Hollywood is no longer a place, and the 2-minute TV revolution he says is coming by 2030. From assistant underground cable splicer ($90/week under the streets of Manhattan) to the man who launched Talk Soup and gave Howard Stern his start, Larry breaks down the 100+ rejections behind E!, how AI wrote his next book in 5 days instead of 2 years, and why he's betting on vertical video, micro-dramas, and a $30/month digital-twin life coach. Plus: his memoir-cookbook "Recipes for Success," spoiling his grandbaby, and the one piece of advice every aspiring creator needs to hear.

    The Tax Bill That Unlocked Everything - Dr. Rachel Gainsbrugh | Ep.107

    A girl from Haiti with a PharmD, half a million in student loans, and five jobs between her and her husband — until one tax bill made her say, out loud, "Something's wrong with this system." In this episode of The Inner Circle On Air, Mike sits down with Netflix-featured entrepreneur, TEDx speaker, and AI strategist Dr. Rachel Gainsbrugh to unpack the exact moment she stopped trading hours for dollars. She walks through buying her first property with $19K down and pulling in ~$6,500/month on a $1,500 mortgage, why her third rental landed her family on Netflix, the "Two-Door Strategy" that replaced the 10-house grind, and how she's now using AI agents, Notebook LM "Property DNAs," and Anthropic-certified tools to help other women buy back their time. This isn't a hustle harder episode. It's a stop trading hours for dollars episode.

    Small doses, big healing - Kayse Gehret | Ep.106

    The host of The Inner Circle On Air sits down with Kayse Gehret— a healer with 31 years in the healing arts, founder of Microdosing for Healing, and specialist in psilocybin microdosing since 2020 — for a raw, funny, and deeply personal conversation about energy, intuition, manifestation, and what actually heals trauma. Kayse opens up about her first Reiki attunement, feeling every chakra blow open while standing at a Pixies concert, her pivot from pre-med to "alternative" healing before it was cool, and the online microdosing community she's built from a small Florida beach town. The host reflects on his own path — alopecia areata, , a Costa Rica men's medicine ceremony, a three-year relationship with a white deer, and the moment he knew holistic was the only route for him. Two career veterans (one in mental health, one in healing arts, both ~30 years deep) compare notes on why the establishment is finally catching up, why microdosing is a "people-led movement," and why cycle breakers are needed now more than ever. 🔔 Subscribe for more conversations with healers, doctors, and cycle breakers rewriting what wellness looks like.
