    Process Over Outcome – Coach Ambrose WB

    Today’s featured guest is Ambrose Wilson-Brown. When I first met him, he was introduced to me as a personal trainer. But he’s actually a coach. Yes, there’s a difference training and coaching.

Ambrose has been involved in some kind of training and coaching for most of his life.  As a young kid, he played football and eventually coached younger kids.  As an adult, he successfully built a personal fitness business over the course of 7 years. He eventually transitioned from personal training to being a mental performance coach through his business named MISPIBO Fitness along with starting a non-profit named Sky Schools Milwaukee. As a mental performance coach, Ambrose helps people improve the mind, body, and spiritual health. He's the perfect person to learn from when it comes to working on your  mind to produce better habits and results.

    How To Identify the Gaps Between Your Beliefs and the Life You Live

    Can you believe it’s November already? The new year is right around the corner.  Let me ask you this. What kind of year have you had? Have you experienced and accomplished everything you aimed for? If you’re like most people, COVID probably had its way with you and never asked for permission. Quarantine life has left everyone examining their life. Anything you ignored problem wise probably got out of control. If you were eating unhealthy food before, you probably overdid it during quarantine. If you were unhappily married, your issues only magnified. If you were bored with your career, you probably questioned what the heck you’ve been doing with your life. The thing is, the pandemic magnified everything for everyone.  The holidays are approaching fast. Vacations will be in order. Now is the perfect time to begin thinking about your goals for next year. And you know what? I got you. Today, I’m publishing a lesson from Legit Goal Setting. Legit Goal Setting is my latest audio course.

    Advice From One Visual Artist to Another – Mauricio Ramirez

    What would it be like to earn a living from your creativity? I’m not talking about getting paid here and there for small projects. I’m talking about making a full-time living from projects alone. Today, we talk to Mauricio Ramirez, a visual artist who went from funding his own art projects to building a legit full-time business.  He has plenty of experience and advice for his fellow artists.  If you’re not an artist, that’s okay because the principles we talk about are transferable to any career you’re in. Mauricio specializes in painting contemporary murals throughout the US. His art is epic and recognizable because of its style and focus. He paints murals highlighting Mexican cultural figures. The icons he chooses to highlight connect with the neighborhood where the mural will live. The technical art style in which he paints is called “low poly”. Low poly art consists of images broken into triangles and polygons. It resembles pixilation except instead of squares, he uses triangles. His art is colorful, bright, and what I call “Instagrammable”. Mauricio has made a name for himself. His murals are scattered throughout the US and he’s built a legit full-time business by leveraging his creativity. In this episode, we talk about: Why every artist should have a conversation with an accountantHow going through reps shouldn’t feel like work — at least not initially.Why he involves the community in his muralsHow saying no to projects can elevate your worth

    Moving Away To Evolve – Jesus Gonzalez

    A few years ago, before the chaos of COVID-19, I used to post up at this place named Fuel Cafe. Every Thursday, I'd go, sip on some beer or coffee and write. Naturally, I became known as a regular and met interesting people. One of those interesting people is Jesus Gonzalez. When I met Jesus, he had just opened up Mazorca Tacos, a food truck selling tacos made out of handmade tortillas. About a year later, he co-founded Zocalo Food Park, the first food park in Wisconsin. At some point, he also opened up a commissary kitchen. And if that wasn't enough, he's an investor in the semi-new startup Cashdrop, a mobile app that enables any business to create and manage an online storefront from their phone. Did you get all of that? Yeah, Jesus has plenty on his plate — no pun intended. With a bio like that, you'd think this interview is about food or business... But nope. We barely discuss any of that. Instead, I decided to dig deep into decisions he made before his business ventures. How did he set himself up to seize so many opportunities? A key decision he credits to changing his life forever was moving to New York, and later Spain after high school. Years later, he returned to his hometown fully equipped to start his slew of businesses. In this interview, we talk about internal realizations, generational patterns, and confronting the fear of the unknown as we discuss Jesus' journey. Enjoy the food for thought and good vibes from Jesus Gonzalez.

    Everything New Plant Owners Should Know – Maranta Plant Shop

    In March of 2020, quarantine was brand new to the world. For most people, that meant spending more time at home than they ever had before. A natural challenge of not being able to leave home is creating a living space in which you can both work and relax. Something I lack in my living space is houseplants. I have only but one small aloe vera plant that a friend gifted me recently. When I polled my Instagram followers, I was surprised to learn about the way plants have contributed to people’s lives. Turns out, I’ve been missing out by not having house plants. So I thought it would be a good idea to create an episode about everything plants. This way, we can all learn how to integrate a little bit more of mother nature into our homes. In this episode, you’ll listen to a conversation with Enrique “Mag” Rodriguez and Michelle Alfaro. They’ve co-founded Maranta Plant Shop, the first Black & Brown-owned plant shop located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. They amazingly started their business during the pandemic. Their plant shop is committed to helping people of color with their mental health by reconnecting them to mother nature via house plants. They’ve also made it a point to reclaim origin stories along with the original names plants were given by indigenous people. You know, before they were European colonizers renamed plants.  Everything about Maranta Plant Shop is dope.  If you’re a plant newbie or you’re a plant parent looking to level up in caring for your house plants, then you’ll like this interview.  We talk about all kinds of things like: Best plants for newbiesCommon mistakes plant owners makeWhen to repot a plantHow to propagateIdeal placement and temperature for plants in a homeAnd plenty more, not to mention their inspiring story of starting a plant shop in the midst of the pandemic.  Enjoy the interview with Mag and Michelle from Maranta Plant Shop.

    Aerospace Engineer Turned Nike Shoe Engineer – Aaron Hankins

    In 2016, I was part of an intensive online workshop named the altMBA. It was expensive, it was intense, and I met people who felt the same way I did about goals and dreams they wanted to make a reality. Some of these people have become dear friends of mine. The workshop was created by Seth Godin and his team.  If you don’t know who Seth is, he’s an author of 19 bestselling books — yes, you heard, right. 19 bestselling books. Some of his books include The Dip, Linchpin, Purple Cow, Tribes, and What To Do When It’s Your Turn (And It’s Always Your Turn). He’s a marketing genius and he’s been in the game for a very long time. What do Seth and altMBA have to do with this episode? They both provide the context of how I met today’s featured guest, Aaron Hankins. Aaron is an R&D Process Engineer for the world-renowned brand, Nike.  He was born and raised in Philadelphia. After receiving a Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from Drexel University, he spent the next 17 years working for a slew of companies, most of which were in the Aerospace industry. How does an Aerospace Engineer go from manufacturing missiles for the military to helping create Nike shoes that are worn throughout the globe? That’s precisely what this episode will unpack for you today.  Aaron’s journey to Nike is full of inspiration, paradigm shifts, and actionable advice that will help you get closer to achieving a goal or dream you’ve yet to make a reality.  Side note: We had a few technical difficulties during the interview, so the quality isn’t the greatest but the content is worth listening to. Enjoy the interview with the inspirational Aaron Hankins.
