    Episode 40- My Conversation with Jobert E. Abueva about The Janus Plan: Beating the Procrastination Trap.

    In this episode, I had a conversation with Jobert E. Abueva about The Janus Plan: Beating the Procrastination Trap. We spoke about procrastination traps that keep people from reaching their goals, moving on from negative situations, overcoming low self-esteem, self-love, self-respect, self-worth, self-value, self-confidence, and believing in yourself when no one else does, and lowering yourselves to build other people up. When many people think about procrastination, they think about people who are lazy and have no inspiration. He breaks down the Janus Plan when it comes to beating the procrastination traps that are keeping you from reaching your goals and the path, purpose, and journey that you are meant to be on. He spoke on mindful cleansing & global rituals when it comes to detoxing the mind from the past and things that are keeping you stagnant, stuff, and procrastination. We spoke on why people's New Year's resolutions are broken by February. How to go about overcoming fear and insecurities that keep you procrastinating and quitting? How can our relationship with our parents be the cause of not doing the things that you can actually do, due to making you feel less than what you are, and breaking your self-esteem and self-worth? A little about Jobert E. Abueva: he is an MBA, TEDx speaker ("Beyond Resolutions: The Art of Beginning with Intention"), and award-winning author whose work has appeared in The New York Times and The Philadelphia Inquirer. Jobert is warm, articulate, and deeply relatable. Instead, he developed a flexible, 6-step framework—inspired by Janus, the two-faced Roman god of thresholds and transitions—to help people reflect on the past, clear mental and physical clutter, and build sustainable life momentum without punitive pressure.This was a great conversation, and hopefully there will be a second conversation coming soon. I hope you guys enjoy the episode.  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/perfectly-imperfect-podcast--6161916/support.

    Episode 39- My Conversation with JR Ortiz About Why MacroLife Superfoods are better than AG1 & IM8.

    In this episode, I spoke to JR Ortiz about his and his mom's company, Macro Greens and Miracle Reds, which helps with formulating for gut health, inflammation, and nutrient status long before it became trendy. We talked about the importance of  Macros when it comes to your internal health and wellness. We talked about internal health when it comes to the digestive system, as far as prebiotics and probiotics. We talked about the relationship between patients and physicians when it comes to treatments. He tells his story of being overweight as a child, how his mom gave him a shake that helped him to lose weight that turned into a product that was created in1998 that is now helping the masses. He also created a product, Miracle Reds, that helps with cancer. We spoke with his mom and him to understand that looking healthy externally doesn't always mean the body is thriving internally. We spoke about how symptoms are often clues instead of problems to suppress. He spoke about his journey of being a doctor like his father, who was a pediatrician, as far as helping others who are struggling with weight loss. We also talked about allergies and not being able to eat healthy products due to companies that produce shellfish, tree nuts, and chemicals that cause allergies, so I can't eat or consume them. We also spkoe on how they make healthy living simple with doctor-formulated superfood blends that deliver daily nutrition in one delicious scoop. Their company is a best-selling products like Macro Greens and Miracle Reds are packed with nutrient-rich superfoods to support energy, gut health, immunity, and overall wellness without the chalky or earthy taste. And is also trusted by major retailers like Walmart and Vitamin Shoppe, with clean, non-GMO, vegan, and gluten-free ingredients designed for busy people who want maximum nutrition with minimal effort. A little about JR. Ortiz, him and his mom crearted the whole superfood category back in 1998. They've changed millions of people's diets with award-winning superfoods that fill nutritional gaps and feed the body at the cellular level. And they're basically the OG of the space, ready to go toe-to-toe with newer names like AG1 and IM8. It was a great conversation, and I hope that you guys can enjoy the conversations.

    Episode 38- My Pre-conversation with Ama K. Karikari About Silence Pain, Suffering, and Abuse.

    In this episode, I had a pre-conversation with Ama K. Karikari about silence abuse, pain, and suffering when it comes to relationships, as far as family, romantic relationships, and friendships. She tells her story about what she experienced in her 15-year marriage and the silence abuse that she experienced during the marriage. We talked about the damage of silence when it comes to abuse, pain, and suffering from the people that you love. How can silence mean that you are allowing and giving permission for people to hurt, abuse, neglect, manipulate, and take advantage of you? How can silence be harmful to the point that it affects your self-esteem and how you see yourself? How did she overcome the silence abuse, and get out of the marriage? What was the breaking point that made her leave? How can silence be abusive, and no one think that it is abuse? A little about Ama: she is a TEDxGeorgeSchool speaker, author of Silenced to Soaring, transformational guide, attorney, and founder who helps women understand covert emotional harm and reconnect with their voice. Her perspective is shaped by work with women’s leadership, educational, and community audiences, along with studies at Harvard, Penn Law, and Wharton. It was a beautiful conversation that I wanted to share with my audience when it comes to overcoming adversity, pain, abuse, trauma, and suffering due to silence. The second part is coming soon. I hope you guys enjoy the conversation. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/perfectly-imperfect-podcast--6161916/support.

    Episode 37- My Pre-conversation with Ezra Vancil about Spiritual Redemption, Addictions, and Forgiveness.

    In this episode, I had a pre-conversation with Ezra Vancil about his redemption and forgiveness when it comes to him overcoming addiction, depression, a felony DWI, a broken marriage, and a season where I nearly ended my life. How is it now, 13 years of being sober, his marriage was restored, and I rebuilt my life slowly, through journals, poetry, discipline, faith, and honest work? How, like the story of Humpty Dumpty, he put himself back together again after falling off the wall? We talked about his life as a rock star when he was younger, ended up on drugs and alcohol. And was divorced twice. How people are quick to use your mistakes, flaws, imperfections, and weaknesses against you as a weapon? We talked about spiritual judgment when it comes to the way that people in the Bible were judged, who did nothing but what was right. We also discussed love and being liked addiction as far as what people are willing to do for it, and what will happen negatively that will destroy you. We also talked about the way that felons are judged and crucified for their past mistakes. Why are people always holding people's past mistakes as a weapon against them? Why are people not allowed to change for the better just because they have made a mistake or multiple mistakes in their past? We talked about how our children, friends, and families are impacted and affected by addictions. We talked about suicide and what happens if and when we survive it. What leads to suicide, and no will to live? We really dove deeply into redemption and overcoming addictions. It was a great conversation that I had to let you guys hear. Part 2 is coming soon.

    Episode 36 - Turning Imperfections and Flaws Into Strengh.

    In this episode, I think about perfectly imperfection when it comes to not putting everything in a perfect place, or a perfect box. I talk about how I’m OK with things not being perfect, or put in the right place all the time. Sometimes I like things to be with at least one thing out of order, to remind myself that I’m not perfect, and things are not perfect. That everyday things are not always gonna go as planned, all the way I want them to be. That is OK if I make a mistake, as long as I learn from that mistake. And I wanted to do this because there are so many people that are trying to be so perfect, and covering up their imperfections, flaws, disabilities, and mistakes they’ve made in their past just to be a part of something, or a part of groups that will never accept them regardless. I think it’s important that we learn that being imperfect doesn’t mean that there’s something wrong with you, or that you’re not deserving, it just means that people try to use it as a weapon against you to hurt, abuse, or take advantage of you. And is important that you understand that you have to learn how to turn these things into a strength. Instead of letting people use it against you as a weapon. I hope this episode where I talk about my imperfections, flaws, medical issues, disability, almost losing everything, and my disabilities helps you who are also imperfect know that you’re not alone.

    Episode 35-2- Part Two of My Pre-conversation with Vincent Van den Broeck about His Adversity From a Near-Fatal Scooter Accident.

    In this episode, this is part 2 of the pre-conversation I had with Vincent Van den Broec about the near-fatal scooter accident that could have unalived him and could have left him paralyzed. The Zoom went, and it divided the recording and video into 2 parts. We talked about how he overcame his diagnosis through determination, drive, dedication, and the will not to let what the doctors told him make him feel sorry for himself. We talked about how we self-sabotage ourselves by believing what others say negatively. We talked about the importance of the connection between the mind, body, and spirit as far as how we deal with pain, trauma, and suffering. We talked about how he could have given up and instead chose to fight his diagnosis, his wives, and his loved ones' support. We talked about how we can program the body to be on the same page as your mind as far as what it wants it to do. How the mind and body are not on the same page, how we are impacted and affected by our decisions, choices, actions, and behavior, and the consequences, repercussions, and karma that come with them. How he e spent three weeks in a coma, had part of his skull removed, and had to relearn how to walk and talk from scratch. We also talk faith and second chances at life, and not waste your second chance at life. The psychological reality of that recovery, and what it did to his family watching from the outside, is raw in a way that will hit your listeners hard. What is important about his story is the fact that he doesn't believe trauma changed him. He believes it tested what was already there. Resilience isn't something you find in the dark, he says. You build it long before you need it. He is currently writing a book about his journey of adversity, healing, and recovery. It was a great and powerful conversation that made me have to post this conversation of faith, adversity, resilience, drive, and belief that led him to a full recovery. I hope you enjoy this conversation. Part 2 of our conversation is coming soon. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/perfectly-imperfect-podcast--6161916/support.

    Episode 34- My Pre-conversation with Angela Jenkins about Diet vs a Holistic Lifestyle.

    In this relationship, I had a great conversation with Angela Jenkins about diets vs holistic lives when it comes to weight loss and being healthy. We spoke about why eating “healthy” still is not enough for so many people, especially in midlife, and how symptoms are often clues instead of problems to suppress? We talked about America when it comes to chemicals in our food and processed food, even though it seems healthy, but it really isn't. We talked about weight loss when it comes to the reasons why you are losing weight that can lead to gaining the weight right back. We talked about how even though some people look, eat, exercise, and seem healthy externally, that doesn't physically mean that they are healthy internally. The stereotype in society standards when it comes to external health and wellness, and physical appearance. We talk about the importance of mental and physical communication when it comes to decisions, actions, behavior, and choices that will impact and affect your health and wellness. We talked about understanding how detoxification, gut health, inflammation, nutrient status, environmental exposures, and lifestyle all work together. A little about Angela, she is the founder of Health Is Local and a Registered Dietitian with 30 plus years of clinical experience. I teach a root-cause approach through what I call The Root Cause Lens, helping people understand how detoxification, gut health, inflammation, nutrient status, environmental exposures, and lifestyle all work together. My focus is real food, practical detoxification, and helping people restore energy, clarity, and confidence.It was a great conversation, and I hope that you guys enjoy the conversation.
