The My Journey Experience: Recent Episodes
Brian Pickowicz
The goal of My Journey is to inspire people to lead a healthier, more passionate & fulfilling life.
My name is Brian Pickowicz, I am a Transformative Fitness Coach & my purpose is to help others transform their lives by first bettering their physical health.
We all have a story; it is our goal to create a space for people to share the tales that make them who they are so that others can learn how to start their journeys too.
Through connecting you to inspirational figures from the fields of Health, Fitness & Wellness you too can begin your path to a more fulfilling life.
There's always something that seems to step in the way when we're aiming to get back into shape and start living a healthier life.
What we invite you to do today is take a step back, remove the pressure, and start the process of reworking your approach to your healthy lifestyle.
Here are four key points for getting back into your zone with Fitness and Health:
1) Build 1-2 Habits at a time
2) Set Your Intentions Daily
3) Schedule Your Time With You
4) Hit Pause Throughout The Week
Thank you for being a part of our journey, we hope this podcast is helping you stay focused.

My absolute favorite guest (sorry other guests) is joining me today my always wonderful fiancé Lindsey. Today, we wanted to share both of our biggest takeaways from Lindsey's first live event. I had some interesting emotions throughout this process and this was the first time in my experience that Lindsey had taken control and was at the forefront of something we did together. I could not be more proud of her and a weekend that was truly transformative for those who attended. While Lindsey as the leader asked those who participated to step into their fire, Lindsey did that herself as well and I wanted you all to gain some insight into her experience and also my role as well. Hope you enjoy!

The final episode of the Ladies Night Series touches on something that no matter what stage of life you are at, we all need to be aware of and want to do better with. That is controlling your emotions. I know what you're thinking, "Just take a deep breathe whenever you're upset." It's just not that easy. I want to share with you my journey and experience with emotional mastery and development and how that allowed me to better connect with myself and those I love.

Part 3 of the Ladies Night Series will hit you right in the heart and something you may really need in your life if you are lacking it. I'm talking about creating and cultivating deep soul-filling connections no matter where you are. The power of social media is real and it can allow you to connect to people you want to surround yourself with. To have deep connections with people takes time but it also takes you starting, saying that you want to surround yourself with more inspiring and like-minded people. I want to explain how I evolved in this area of my life when I moved to Los Angeles and how it was so impactful in my life.

Everyone's dream life is different and unique. Like Gary V said, "Your dreams don't have to be "big" they just have to be yours." So many people are walking around without a clearly defined direction for their life and while it will evolve and progress, you will enviably burn out if you don't have the end vision in mind. In this episode, I want to share with you my original path of engineering and why that was my path. I then want to explain how online fitness coaching came into my life, the obstacles of choosing this road, how no matter how old you are you can still have a unique vision for your life, and what questions you should ask yourself to help you determine your unique vision.

The takeover is happening! Lindsey, my wonderful fiancé, will be taking over the podcast for the next 4 episodes. I'm so excited for her to share with you what she has planned and I know you will get a lot of value out of it. Today's episode centers around peace with your body and how to tangibly make progress with this area of life. I think for those who have struggled in this area of life, it is hard to measure improvement and it's easy to look at this in a binary way of either I hate my body or I love it. Lindsey shares amazing and vulnerable stories about her struggles with her body image and her progression to overcome them.

This is a special episode for me and I am excited to bring it to you today. The difference between feeling in the zone in your life and feeling out of your zone honestly feels like two different versions of yourself. The quality of life is missing when you are out of your zone. It feels like a part of you is missing. I want to share with you my experiences with being out of the zone and what I did to get back into the zone. If you feel as though you are missing something in your life the way you used to in terms of your body, I also have an offer for you that you won't want to miss.

Today's episode is with the amazing Ashley Pardo and I wanted to bring Ashley on the podcast to discuss how to eat more mindfully. In today's culture, it is very easy to eat in a hurry while doing something else and understanding what mindful eating will bring into your life is something you will not want to take for granted. It's been a huge shift in my life and I want it to be for you as well. We also discuss meal prep strategies and one strategy that isn't discussed a lot is mini-preps during the week and I think this is something we can all incorporate into our week and make our lives easier and more healthy.

We dive deep into prehab and why this is such an important component to overall health journey. We also discuss his invention the Neck Hammock which has taken off. Finally, we wrap up with how Dr. Sudell stays focused and organized with all of the projects he has going on at once.

Today is a deep dive into sleep and I know many people do not prioritize this part of their life. They allow this part to be a causality to everything else they need to get accomplished and I was there too at one point working 3 jobs in college. I wanted to bring Tina on to discuss some of the topics involving sleep that may be overlooked such as what blue light does to our sleep patterns, how to unwind after a long day, and setting boundaries with yourself and others in your life.

I want to share with you something I've been holding back for awhile. I have felt inauthentic and I needed to share this with all of you. Understand, social media is not where you are "authentic."

It was a chapter of my life that I shut the door on but never really fully processed so I want to take this episode and explain to you the power of what I consider suffering and why I believe it is so important in your life.

In this episode, I want to share a powerful tool I've been using consistently for about 5 years that has helped stave off my anxiety. That tool is meditation. I know there are a lot of different opinions out there, so before you dismiss it completely, listen to this episode. I demystify what the stereotypical meditation practice has been popularized as, I share an example in my life before meditation when I had a panic attack, and what meditation has done for me both in my life and in my business.

The second 3 part series of the My Journey podcast centers around one fundamental concept: Health. I want to break down health because it is such a widely discussed topic and a lot of individuals talk about their health in a very abstract way. For you to live the life you want, you need to remove the vagueness of health and what it really means for your life. In this first part of our 3 part mini-series, I want to help you define health for yourself and what it ultimately means in your life.

Before this amazing life though, Brad was addicted to heroin at age 19 and was going down a path statistically few come back from.

The Couple That Lost Over 100 Pounds.
The last two years have been incredibly transformative for Nate & Amy Despins.
Together, they have lost over 100 pounds, changed their career paths, & added newly wedded to their list as well.
The most exciting aspect of these changes were that they transformed, together.
Nate’s lifestyle journey began in 2017 when he was weighing over 265 pounds & made the decision to get back into shape. As VP of Sales, Nate’s focus was to implement a more sustainable & flexible approach that allowed him to still be active in his career. Through proper training, consistent dieting lost 65 pounds before the year’s end & then another 20 pounds in 2018 as well.
Seeing Nate’s fire & ready to make her own changes, Amy’s journey began in January of 2018 with a flexible and sustainable approach. A self-identified Little Debbie Snack fan, Amy’s original fear was that any method to lose weight would be basic, miserable & wouldn’t work. Through flexible dieting, consistent weight training & a lifestyle-based approach Amy lost almost 30 pounds in 6 months.
Together, they exemplify the importance of being a team in your relationship as well as the success that can be had with a sustainable & realistic approach!
Congratulations to the new Mr. & Mrs. Despins; may your new journey allow you to continue to thrive together!
Thank you again for tuning in & if you loved this episode make sure to leave us a review on ITunes as well as share us on your social media feed! You will then have the opportunity to be the reviewer of the week where we’ll be giving away tons of free prizes!

“Becoming a Powerhouse Woman”
Lindsey Schwartz is a wellness entrepreneur & a best-selling author. Her book, Powerhouse Woman: How to get out of your own way, fulfill your unique purpose, and live a powerful life helps to layout the frame work for other women who want to become their own personal best.
Lindsey’s own journey to becoming a powerhouse woman began after college she packed up everything she owned and moved west to pursue the corporate dream, only to realize that it was not for her. Realizing she wanted more, she dove into personal development & then launched her first business in search of a way to make a living building her own dreams instead of someone else’s.
Lindsey started her first business part-time at the age of 26 and over the next several years became an accomplished fitness athlete, speaker, full-time entrepreneur, and author. In 2017 Lindsey founded the Powerhouse Women event as a way to help women get out of their own way and into ACTION around their own big ideas and dreams.
Lindsey is passionate about building community and believes that women are most successful when they collaborate and sincerely root for one another to win.

How do we improve our lives & how do we learn to become better?
It is not through information; it’s through stories.
Each one of us has our own unique story which has made us who we are today.
It is through these stories that we learn, develop & shape the future.
When we share our stories, we express ourselves in a vulnerable way which allows us to inspire others to share their stories as well.
And it is through these stories, that we become connected and can learn from each other’s strengths and flaws.
The purpose of this podcast is to inspire others to take action in their own lives through the lessons they learn from others.
As a fitness coach, my primary focus is on transforming your body & health, but it really matters to me that you understand how that is just the beginning of it all.
Through the physical metamorphosis that occurs, the internal dialog, habits & daily targets shift as well & THAT is the power of transformation.
My goal through My Journey is to inspire that same action, but focusing on your internal workings so that the transformation sticks & you can focus on the next step with the same intensity as the one that brought you here.
My Journey is the podcast of stories that will inspire other to become better in their physical & mental health, but also allow them to open up their hearts to the possibilities of something better.
The first episode we dive into my personal journey as a small town kid from a 750 person town in NH, to finding a passion for Fitness, moving to Los Angeles, & discovering my purpose for helping others proclaim their power along the way.
I am grateful to be able to share my story; I hope it reaches and inspires you to start yours too!
