Whats up with Fat?
Through my further education in fitness and also consumption of Bulletproof Coffee, I have become more aware of how necessary fat is in our diet. The problem is that the media has led a crusade against fat, and its making us dumber. As usual, it comes down to the real motivation is money.
Why fat is good:
- It helps mental function
- It helps you get skinny
- It makes you more anabolic
- Keeps you fuller longer

The Flip Flop CEO is the brain child of Janine Finney and Lory Muirhed. The mother-daughter team has a very unique experience in building a successful network marketing experience. Lory got out of college and went into a career, but realized she wanted so much more. She discovered network marketing, and was excited to tell everyone about it, but when telling her mother Janine about it, the response was not quite what she hoped for. Janine was very negative on the idea, since she had been approached many, many times in the past.
These two women have a goal of changing the network marketing industry and getting rid of much of the industry speak. They want to share their transformational experience with others and help to spread the freedom which they enjoy so much!

It seems like Jay Samit has been a pivotal part of every important event in the last 20 years. In today’s ever-changing and often-volatile business landscape, adaptability and creativity are more crucial than ever. It is no longer possible—or even desirable—to learn one set of job skills and work your way up the ladder. Rather, today’s entrepreneurs and business leaders must anticipate change to create opportunities for professional success and personal satisfaction. In Disrupt You!, Jay Samit—a digital media expert who has launched, grown, and sold start-ups and Fortune 500 companies alike—describes the unique method he has used to invent new products and grow established businesses throughout his career.
Samit has been at the helm of businesses in the ecommerce, digital video, social media, mobile communications, and software industries, helping to navigate them through turbulent economic times and guide them through necessary transformation so that they stay ahead of the curve and profitable. In Disrupt You!, he shows how the strategies that help companies flourish can be applied at an individual level. By challenging assumptions, pinpointing one’s unique value, and identifying weaknesses in the structure of current industries, anyone can achieve success and prosperity.
Incorporating stories from his own experience and anecdotes from other innovators and disruptive businesses—including Richard Branson, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, YouTube, Circ du Soleil, Odor Eaters, Iams Dog Food, Silly Putty, and many more—Samit shows how personal transformation can reap entrepreneurial and professional rewards. Disrupt You! offers clear and empowering advice for anyone looking for a big break; anyone with a big idea but no idea how to apply it; and for anyone worried about being made irrelevant in an era of technological transformation. This engaging, paradigm-shifting book demystifies the mechanics of disruption for individuals and businesses alike.

Justin Matthew spent many years in venture capital (million dollar producer 3 years).
The next move was 10 years later when he became the business manager for one of the largest YouTube channels in the world HouseHoldhacker at the time known for pranks etc. He played a major role into turning the channel into the highest respected science show on the web and negotiated multiple business deals with fortune 500 companies.

Taking my experience from corporate sales and then managing the YouTube channel and all their social media Justin realized he was 1 of very few that had business skills and social media..he formed JM Consulting which developed into managing and building Social Networks for companies.
He found great success right off the bat which has led to the founding of another company Monopolize Social Media. Where he get 10 clients a week. Then, after crushing it, Justin packed up, moved to Utah and formed iBoom Media.

Tim Ferris / Ryan Holiday Interview
Jarrod Glandt left college in his 3rd year atSan Diego. He got a job selling print and online advertising and at 21 and quickly became the #2 rep in the country making $150k/yr. His territory, and income got cut into a third and his situation quickly changed.
He left that job to go work for his father, but it wasn't quite what he was looking for. He came across a video of Grant Cardone, and decided he needed Grant, and only Grant to hire him.
After initially reaching out with no luck. he followed up everyday for about 2 months before he was invited to interview (on a Sunday). After the dust cleared, he was offered the job. It was an entry-level salesperson, receptionist, extra hand, do whatever it takes type of role. That’s when the hard work started.
He started at $2500 per month plus a small residual commission on deals he wrote. He was broke, in debt, making hardly any money, sleeping on an air mattress, and selling a brand new product nobody knew about. He learned the value of real, hard work.
That’s when it all changed. It’s funny what 6 days a week and 75-80 hours of work will do for business. Becoming a true student of the game is what really made the difference for Jarrod. He currently is the EVP for Grant Cardone and the Co-Host of Young Hustlers podcast, he's here to kick your sales into gear.

I love podcasting, its really my passion but it took my a long time to do it correctly. This is my second go round at a podcast, but I learned a lot about how to do it correctly and I also learned I was doing it with the wrong things in mind. My real purpose should always be the audience and not just throwing out as much content as I can. Quality content is king and I needed to change my operating procedure.
So, what did I do differently? Here it goes:
The Production
- Fiverr for a Logo
- Took the Podcast Blueprint Course
- Got Music on Pond5
- Used Garage Band and actually did editing
- Auphonic for audio leveling
- Bought an ID3 File Tagger
- Sent out 98 emails for guest to be on the show
The Launch
- Sent about 100 Personal Emails
- About 300 texts (I forgot to mention this in the episode)
- About 500 Facebook messages
- About 3,000 Linkedin Messages
- Sent out to about 200 Mailing List Members
- Bothered anyone with an iPhone
