In this episode of the Dream Catcher podcast, I talk with Taten Uden, a young entrepreneur navigating his path after high school.
Taten shares his entrepreneurial journey, future plans, and insights on mindset, AI, and personal growth.
We also delve into Taten's insights on entrepreneurship, overcoming fears, and the significance of making connections in today's world.
BIO
My name is Taten Uden, I’m 21 years old and I’m from a small town in Nebraska called Kenesaw, where I grew up around farming, hard work, and a tight-knit community of about a thousand people. I’ve always been someone who thinks a little differently—I was that kid taking things apart, trying to rebuild them, and constantly asking how something could be improved. I played sports growing up, football being my favorite, and spent a lot of time outdoors hunting, fishing, and at the lake. I went to a Christian school and have always been surrounded by that foundation, which shaped how I see purpose and helping others. I did well in school, not because I necessarily wanted to, but because I had to—I did just enough to keep my parents happy. I didn’t fully fit the normal path, and I think that pushed me even more to think for myself and figure out what I was really meant to do.
At the core of who I am, I’ve always felt like I’m meant to build something that actually helps people. I’ve always had this idea that I need to invent things or create solutions—that’s how I want to make my money and most importantly, make an impact. That mindset led me to what I’m building now, TJKrank and AgriStax. TJKrank is based on products designed to make unloading a pickup bed or trailer faster and easier, something I originally came up with back in 8th grade, working for a lawnmowing company, but didn’t know how to act on at the time. AgriStaX is focused on helping farmers and landowners stack programs and opportunities so they can get more out of their land without needing more of it. A lot of this became real for me after going through a rough stretch—losing my job and dealing with uncertainty forced me to face that question a lot of people hear: “what’s next?” Instead of going back to something safe, I decided to bet on myself and lean into that drive I’ve always had. Now I’m building both from the ground up, focused on creating real solutions that make a difference, because at the end of the day, I don’t just want to make money—I want to build something that actually matters and actually makes a difference.

In this latest episode of the Dream Catcher podcast I talk with Nancy and Kristi of LyonHeart.
LyonHeart was established in 2015 by Nancy, a former teacher at a juvenile detention center, and Kristi, who has a background in horse training and management.
They combined their passions for education and horses to create a nonprofit focused on helping kids through innovative learning experiences.
BIO
How Equine-Assisted Learning Breaks Through BarriersWe all want to live our best lives. But sometimes anxiety, depression, traumatic experiences, or self-defeating behavior can hold us back. Many of us may feel trapped and unsure how to start a pathway to healing. Equine-assisted learning is a ground-breaking alternative which deals with many emotional and behavior issues using guided interactions with horses.
We focus our serviced toward children, youth and families. Equine-assisted learning has been shown to be effective across diverse and varying backgrounds.
We have found that using horses in an outside environment helps participants overcome emotional, behavioral, social and education challenges in their personal lives. Horses offer participants a non-judgmental approach to identifying and working through their own emotional blocks.
Participants interact with horses while completing all activities on the ground in an outdoor corral while working with certified educators, equine specialists and trained volunteers.
Because we are not a riding facility, no previous horse experience is needed.
Some of the valuable and life-altering benefits you may experience include:
Why Horses?Horses are large and powerful animals with a keen sense of observation. They are naturally wired to constantly scan their environment for any threats from predators. Their very survival requires them to be able to detect intent in their environment. A horse knows the difference between a sleeping mountain lion and one that is pretending to sleep.
Because of this heightened sense of awareness, horses are able to sense someone's true inner feelings – even if the person is unable to put these feelings in to words. The horse's ability to to mirror a person's inner emotional state is honest and authentic. When a person carries emotions such as anger, anxiety, depression or frustration is seen through the horse's reactions to the person's subtle body language. For example, a horse may react to a person's anger though shying away or becoming agitated.
When the inside of the person matches the outside, the horse relaxes and is more cooperative. As a result, courage and trust are developed to carry these behaviors and attitudes changes from inside the corral to situations outside the arena.
What We Do
“Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes it neighs."
Our focus is to help participants develop the skills needed to overcome social, emotional, behavioral, and educational challenges in life while interacting with horses, certified educational professionals, and equine specialists.

In this episode of the Dream Catcher Podcast, host Mark Larsen welcomes Zach Tidwell, a Marine Corps veteran who has faced significant challenges, including a life-altering injury that left him blind and deaf in one ear.
Zach shares his journey from a dark place, where he attempted suicide, to becoming a self-taught, award-winning software developer.
He discusses the importance of resilience, the power of perspective, and how he has turned his experiences into a mission to make the digital world more accessible for everyone. Zach's story is one of hope, determination, and the belief that life can improve, no matter how dire the circumstances may seem.
BIO
Zach Tidwell is a completely blind Marine Corps veteran, writer, speaker, entrepreneur, and athlete who lost his sight in 2019 to a suicide attempt. When he was taken off of life support he awoke to find that the bullet hadn’t killed him, but it had taken all of his sight and hearing in one ear instead. But he refused to become a bump on a log and has entirely redefined himself in the time since, even despite having struggled with alcoholism and being diagnosed with an incurable, deadly genetic disease whilst trying to conquer his addiction.
Today he’s a self-taught, award-winning software developer making the digital world a more accessible place for everyone. He skis, rock climbs, whitewater kayaks, and even competes in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu against able-bodied opponents to show others that anything is possible. And just finished the fourth draft of a memoir that dives everything from the suicide attempt, through the highs, lows, and lessons that have brought him to where he is today— sharing his story in hopes of saving lives and getting conversations started around the tougher subjects society typically avoids.
He’s an open book with actionable insights, unique perspectives, and a charming sense of humor that lightens the load of the heavy topics he discusses.

She discusses the importance of authenticity, alignment in life, and the power of dreams.
BIO
Malaysia Harrell is a board-certified psychotherapist, a spiritual transformation
coach, award-winning entrepreneur, veteran, keynote speaker, and author
who helps women find freedom and fulfillment. But really, she is a healer, an
unleasher, and a light that leads women back to their true selves so they can
live fully and finally. As a licensed psychotherapist and board-certified clinical
social worker, Malaysia blends clinical expertise, spiritual wisdom and intuitive
guidance to help women overcome their past trauma, heal their hurts and
define their vision for their lives. Her incomparable coaching guides clients on
an intimate, insightful journey to break free from limiting beliefs and
expectations and discover lives of authenticity, purpose and bliss.
Extraordinary at walking women through radical transformation, Malaysia is
more than her client’s coach; she’s their champion.
Malaysia is not just a brilliant therapist and coach, but a woman with her own
“against all odds” success story. From overcoming a childhood trauma to a
life-threatening illness that could have crippled her, she’s built her career brick
by brick, fighting fears, failures, and setbacks to have the life she’s always
known was hers to claim. Through it all, Malaysia has mastered the art of
faith-filled manifestation, proving that whatever a woman believes, she
becomes. And today she personifies what it means to ascend over adversity
while inspiring countless women to do the same. Whether she’s in front of an
audience of one or one thousand, Malaysia’s life-shifting energy propels
women towards transformation and empowerment; she awakens women to
the possibility of more.
Simply put, it is impossible to be in Malaysia’s presence and leave
unchanged. Malaysia is here for the women who need to trade their
perception of perfection for true freedom and authenticity. She is here for the
women who need to reimagine who they can be and what they can have; she
is here for the women who are here for more than coaching; she is seeking a
powerful partnership with women who are equipped to help her expand and
elevate herself to a life that she could only dream about until now.
Drawing from her personal experiences and deep commitment to mental
health advocacy, Malaysia founded Blissful Life Consulting LLC. Her vision
is to empower individuals and communities through transformative mindset
coaching and holistic wellness practices.

BIO
My interest in health started at a young age. I remember asking my dad who is a dermatologist, all kinds of abstract and philosophical questions. Why is the sky blue? Or, why does the sun cause skin issues? I was fascinated and wanted to know why.
In my early twenties I thought about pursuing a career in the medical field, specifically a naturopath. Life changed course and I got into the automotive detailing industry, owning my own company for the last thirty years.
All this time, I was still interested in health and how the human body worked but it was more of a leisurely pursuit. I read a few articles and watched a few videos here and there. It wasn’t until 2012 that I became more or less obsessed with why people get chronic diseases. That year my sister died of cancer. I thought to myself, Does the body want to kill itself? It didn’t make sense.
In 2014, I started to really dive “deep into the woods,” so to speak, with my discovery of water’s amazing properties. I learned water had memory and it could hold information. This blew my mind, and I started to voraciously read everything I could get my hands on about water.
Fast forward to 2019, and I realized I needed to share this information with people around me and my loved ones. I thought, I can become a health coach! This way I can share my information and help people get well. I signed up for The Primal Health Coach Institute after much research, as they were in line with my values. After getting my certificate, I realized I wanted to help people through teaching and lecturing.
A friend of mine suggested, “Why don’t you write a book?” I thought this would be perfect. I could get my message out there for people who wanted to listen. Over the past four years, I have been researching and working on this book, and it has finally come to fruition. This “model” that I created and developed is a decade of research and reviewing hundreds of articles, as well as talking and learning from experts in their respective fields. I hope this model gives you hope and you find value in it. If I could save one person from chronic disease I have succeeded at my mission.

In this episode of the Dream Catcher Podcast, host Mark Larsen speaks with Emily and Andrew, the founders of Stray by the Bay, a cat cafe in Lincoln, Nebraska.
They share their journey from being dog lovers to cat enthusiasts, the challenges of opening a cat cafe, and their commitment to animal rescue and community support.
The conversation covers their fundraising efforts, the vision for their cafe, and the importance of social media in spreading awareness about their mission.
Emily and Andrew also discuss their personal experiences with pets and the challenges of pet ownership, emphasizing the need for responsible pet adoption and care.
BIO
Our Goal
At Stray By The Bay, our cafe in Lincoln is driven by three core principles: cats, coffee, and community. We are dedicated to raising awareness of the alarming numbers of homeless, stray, and feral cats not only nationwide, but right here in the Lincoln area. Through partnerships with Capital Humane Society and Big Red Rescue, we aim to reduce their burden and provide a loving and engaging space for cats awaiting adoption. In addition to being a safe haven for feline friends, we also aim to educate the community on responsible cat ownership, fostering programs, and Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) initiatives. Our cozy cafe offers a warm and inviting atmosphere for patrons not only to enjoy the company of cats but also to savor a delicious and rotating menu of pastries and beverages made from coffee beans sourced by The Coffee Roaster- a local air roaster located here in Lincoln. We are committed to supporting the community of Lincoln by promoting local businesses, assisting with local rescue efforts, and connecting with our guests on a personal level. Hope to see y’all soon!
About The Owners
Lifelong animal lovers and coffee drinkers, Emily and Andrew are looking to create a unique experience for cat and coffee lovers alike. Emily was born and raised on the east coast, in NJ. Her passion for animals started early with bringing home stray critters to running lemonade stands benefiting her local shelter. Following her interests, she decided to pursue a degree in Animal Science at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, where she became the President of the Animal Impact Club and graduated with her bachelor’s. Right next door in PA, Andrew graduated with a business degree from Rowan University. Along with working in various positions in multiple culinary establishments, he is looking to combine those experiences with his business knowledge and love for animals to help create a fantastic environment for both cats and cat lovers. With the combined knowledge and skills, the only thing left is to release the ship from port and set sail on this journey.

I’m passionate about this as I once felt powerless & was scared to show up in the world as me, I then started working on my mindset, I discovered who I was & love the feeling of inner contentment & confidence. I went from scared to speaking on stage
I am an introvert that discovered how to rewire my mind & regulate my nervous system, release my blocks so I could achieve the dreams I wanted to achieve & now I help people do the same by helping them.
I can hand on heart say ‘I know it can be done, I have walked in similar shoes to yours, I have felt your fears, I have been frustrated by blocks.
A bit about my background, I had an abusive relationship growing up with a narcissistic mother, I then moved on to two abusive relationships, I’ve been homeless, I brought up 4 children single handed, I have a unique way of understanding people where they are at & helping them to find their
power.
I now live in a beautiful house with my husband, dog and run a successful business whilst having fun on adventures in our campervan.

In this episode of the Dream Catcher Podcast I talk with James Coma of Spain!
One of his words of wisdom in the podcast episode... Stop Hustling!
Embrace Momentum for True Inspiration!
You know it's not about hustling grind as it is about momentum you know to kind of just be there.
You know if you're a public figure for example right like that's where I'm most familiar with is just be present and every now and then do a podcast or do an interview or post a video or whatever and get people posted on what you're doing and don't just go!
Just give them momentum you know and don't be afraid to lose momentum or whatever because sometimes you also need those periods of stillness where nothing is happening.
Then all of a sudden you get that- Oh my God this is what I what I had to do- The most inspiration in those quiet moments!
Yeah So if you're always grinding you're never going to get that inspiration because just your mind is constantly in overdrive and it's just racing all the time and you're always trying to get to the next thing.
It's like you miss a lot when you're doing it.
James Coma is an international actor, producer, writer, and he's also an entrepreneur and investor.

In this episode of the Dream Catcher podcast I talk with Michael Consbruck!
Michael Consbruck is the owner of The Cheese and Wine Shop in Hastings, Nebraska!
He opened the shop because when he moved back to Nebraska, there was no access to cheese, wine, cured meats and other delicious things he had became accustomed to living on the West Coast.
Each neighborhood had their own cheese shop in Los Aneles in addition to several places to find good wines, cured meats and specialty grocery stores.
Since he couldn't find these things locally he decided open and combine all these things into one store, The Cheese and Wine Shop!
He stated that he didn’t move to California to get into the wine industry, the wine industry kind of found him.
In California he went from a writer into the architecture world where he took a large pay cut. He needed to find a second job to make ends meet, and basically fell into the wine world.
His undergraduate degree is in agronomy and plant science.
When he moved to California, he used to drive up to the wine regions to escape the city and get back into an agricultural setting, one he was familiar with.
At this time, he pretty much only drank beer.
He did not go to the wine regions for the wine, but rather to learn about how grape vines grew, how they were cared for, how they were harvested and so on.
As he learned more about the vines, he was curious about the wine side and began studying winemaking.
Many people ask him if he is a sommelier, and the answer is no. He took the WSET classes that sommelier’s take, but he took his training a bit further into the agricultural aspect and production of wine.
So, his title in the wine world is certified specialist of wine. He likes to tell people that his specialty is from Vine to Wine and everything in-between.
Michael currently farms full time and opened the shop as a hobby selfishly so he had access to all the cheeses, wines, cured meats and other grocery items that you simply cannot find in this area.
Check out The Cheese and Wine Shop!

The reactors, the over thinkers and the thinkers. In this episode I discuss how I think that the reactors miss most of their life. Reacting from event to event. I think that is the place where many people in the United States are at. Example Look at all the road rage.
Next group is the over thinkers. I have been part of this group and still am at times. This group I believe is more likely to capture their dreams if they would reduce their overthinking and take action!
The last group is the thinkers. They think, plan their path and then take action. Group I am attempting to be part of. Not always easy.
No matter what group you are part of go after those dreams!
Not always easy, but so worth it!
Reflections!
Four years ago I was like most people I meet who want to start a podcast or almost anything else.
Most people I find don't believe that they have anything to offer that will help people or that people would find worth listening to.
I was the same way. I thought who would want to listen to me rattle on with a podcast.
You know what?
There are people who indeed are waiting for you! Waiting for you to show them the way!
Interesting thing is this applies to whatever area that want to go into. Your audience is waiting for you!

Jeffery Ross recently joined me on an episode of the Dream Catcher podcast!
*First off I apologize for the reverb on my track. Thought about rerecording, but too great of episode to do that! Even Ai couldn't remove the reverb!)
Jeff is from Launceston, Tasmania!
I don't know if it was the distance or what, but my recording contained an annoying reverb that no one is able to take out... so here it is!
Riverside's magic audio, AI could not completely remove the reverb so my apologies!
Jeff even offered to rerecord the episode, but I didn't want to do that because
I believe this is one of the best episodes I have ever had!
Hope that it is not too bad for you!
Great thing is that Jeffrey did most of the talking!
His track did not have the reverb. Go figure that out!
Hope that you enjoy!

I have collected vintage Christmas items since I was a kid.
With that being said I usually held a Christmas Open House at my house in early December of every year!
Enter 2020... the world changed!
Covid changed many things including having guest to my house to see my quite large Christmas collection.
So what were Cheryl and I to do??
Do a Christmas Open House on Facebook LIVE!!
That is what we did and here is the audio recording made into a podcast of that 2020 event!
Hope that you enjoy it!
NEW DREAM CATCHER PODCAST EPISODE JUST DROPPED!

David Reynolds, a man that came from the streets of North Omaha to the YMCA of Hastings!
A young man who was part of a gang and lost to a man in Hastings, Nebraska making a difference in the lives of everyone he meets.
This inspirational man is a person on the move! One to be watched as he grows into his calling!
Believe! A word that we hear often. In reality do we see that everything that
we believe affects the way that we live our lives.
How you believe about yourself shows up in how you react to situations and how you live your day to day life.
What you believe about others also affects how you approach life.
Do you react to a homeless person the same way that you react to a
wealthy person? Probably not. So what is the difference? Your beliefs!
When you become aware of what you believe your whole life can change.
Enjoy this episode and I pray that you become more aware of how your beliefs affect your life and the lives of others!
FIRST OFF HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
A THANKSGIVING DREAM CATCHER PODCAST JUST DROPPED!
I am so thankful for my life!
Wasn't long ago that Cheryl and I where living a pretty great life, but all of that changed last year after we got back from Italy!
It was like someone flipped a switch and we basically lost many things except for expenses. Investments weren't available everything just went away. Been very trying and humbling times!
Explain that one. It had to be GOD!
It was time to level up. It was time to get stronger!
With all the trials and tribulations we have been through in this last year and a half we are not bitter, but all so grateful for everything that we have!
Thanks for checking out this episode!

Happy Thanksgiving!
SENDING BLESSING!
Why do we have so many young kids committing suicide?
Why are there so many families breaking up?
There are so many kids that don't know how or don't want to talk because they have really never been exposed to connections. It means nothing to them... see it as an inconvenience. In reality connection is totally what life is all about!
No man or woman is an island. Maybe easier done today, but still not a direction you want to go!
Connection is what it is about!
Today and always!

Our Mission...
The Mission of Our Place After School Care is to create a caring community that will encourage teenagers with special needs, ages
13-20, to practice academic, social, and life skills and enable them to be involved in community service and enriching experiences.
About Us:
www.ourplacecare.org
Did you know? Many youth with special needs will require 24-7 supervision and care throughout their lives. The State of Nebraska helps provide some funding, but many still need to be included.
Parents without significant resources are faced with difficult choices. They can quit their jobs (which often involves going on welfare to provide care for their children) or have to leave their children to the state.
Stress is a factor. Parents are under constant stress. Finding care so that a parent or guardian can go shopping, go out to dinner, or attend an evening meeting is nearly impossible.
Our Place After School Care receives little state funding due to many state regulations. The majority of support for Our Place is provided through grant writing and your generosity.
AND NOW YOU KNOW WHY WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT!
Please consider a generous donation. Your donation qualifies as a tax deduction.
Freedom Factory
Freedom Factory is creating opportunities for our teens with special needs to find ways to learn and develop skills at Our Place.
In addition to their regular curriculum they:
• Design and make craft items to sell
• Learn how to count change
• Learn to work with the public
• Learn about food safety
• Learn cooking skills
• Learn to work collaboratively
If you want to make a purchase, consign items, donate to this worthy non-profit care facility, or find out how you can help, contact:

Am I the only one noticing the erosion of common courtesy especially in the United States?
Cheryl and I were out in public yesterday and the Christmas shopping has begun!
What should bring out the best in people only is amplifying what people have become.
They know what "they" want and that is all that counts anymore.
It is no longer us it is me and what I want!
People very rarely hold doors anymore because that would inconvenience them. Same goes for putting your shopping cart back... too busy!
That makes it alright then.
Thing is what you do or don't do always comes back to YOU!
So the next time someone is rude to you or doesn't hold the door have you done that to or for others?

Are you living in the moment? Truly are you?
Most people in the United States are not.
They are always in a hurry many not even realizing that they are.
Working for the weekend and then dreading Monday on Sunday.
Even our holidays are getting that way. We start the Christmas season earlier each year not even enjoying the Fall season beforehand.
Most of the day people are glued to their phone avoiding the moment and passing time until something that they like comes along. Phones have become a way to definitely not live in the moment.
Sad thing is that when people reach the end of their life they will have few memories and moments to remember and cherish!
At one time I thought God existed, but after the last year and a half I know that God is real!
Listen to our journey on reaching this place in our life! GOD TRULY IS REAL!
I had the pleasure of recording a podcast episode with local Minden, Nebraska man Sam Hansen!
I got to know Sam during my handyman years.
I thought that I knew almost everything about Sam, but during this recording I discovered that I almost knew nothing about him!
Sam is a man of many hobbies and interests!
First off I knew that he did construction and that he loved older cars!
What I didn't know though was immense!
Mountain Manning to Blacksmithing were just the tip of
what he also enjoys!
His love for travel and the nicer things in life were also a pleasant surprise!
Take a listen to this fun episode of the Dream Catcher podcast!
Find out Sam's other interests and passions!
This is one of my favorite episodes that I have recorded!
This episode is real, real life, real struggles, real disappointments, and real successes!
This beautiful family shows the real journey of going after your dreams!
We think that if you work hard enough, you grind more and you struggle continuously that you will be successful with capturing your dreams.
Can be the case, but like anything worthwhile it is a journey that doesn't always lead to success.
This family knows that just like Cheryl and I do, but they just keep on going!
Applause for the ones who never give up for they receive the rewards of living their dreams!

This is our awesome results!
Hope you enjoy this podcast episode!

Doug Kristensen was appointed to lead the University of Nebraska at Kearney in July 2002, following a distinguished career in the Nebraska Legislature. He was elected in 1988 to represent the 37th legislative district and served until 2002. At the time he retired from office, he was the longest serving Speaker in the history of the Legislature. He brings to the chancellor’s position a unique knowledge of the issues affecting higher education in the State of Nebraska, a record of dedication to Nebraska citizens, and a deep understanding of the University system in general and the history and mission of the Kearney campus in particular.
Doug Kristensen is the longest serving chancellor in the history of the University of Nebraska. He is also the longest currently serving leader of all colleges and universities in the state. Under Chancellor Kristensen’s leadership, UNK is consistently ranked as one of the Top 10 regional public universities in the Midwest. Reflecting Kristensen’s emphasis on accessibility and quality, UNK is also ranked number two in value.
During his tenure as a Nebraska State Senator, Chancellor Kristensen was instrumental in passing significant legislation and numerous constitutional amendments. He sponsored legislation that created the Nebraska Court of Appeals, the Tax Equalization and Review Commission, Limited Liability Companies, the Commission on Public Advocacy, the Telecommunications Act, and the Invest in Nebraska Act (the legislation which kept the Union Pacific Headquarters in Omaha). He modernized the statutory structure for Nebraska businesses through the Revised Model Business Corporation Act, the Revised Model Nonprofit Corporation Act, and the first LLC and LLP acts for Nebraska. As Speaker, Kristensen passed scores of bills dealing with taxes, transportation, and state government. Senator Kristensen was a commissioner on the Constitutional Review Commission as well as one of the sponsors of the legislation that brought (then) Kearney State College into the University of Nebraska system. At the time he held political office he practiced law and was a partner in the law firm of Lieske & Kristensen in Minden, Nebraska.
An enthusiastic advocate of everything UNK, Chancellor Kristensen has directed a dramatic renewal of the Kearney campus with over $360 million in new construction and major renovation on the main campus. Projects include construction of Antelope and Nester residence halls; creation of a Greek Village with new buildings for both fraternities and sororities; creating new east and west entrances to the campus; renovation of Men’s, Randall, and Mantor Halls, and Centennial Towers East and West; the Cope Stadium/Foster Field project; a new Central Utilities Plant; several improvement projects to campus dining facilities; extensive landscaping; significant renovation of the Nebraskan Student Union, Bruner Hall of Science, West Center, the Fine Arts Building, C. T. Ryan Library, Warner Hall, the Health and Sports Center, and the Frank House. In addition, a state-of-the-art Wellness Center and Discovery Hall–a new 90,000 square foot STEM building.

How grateful are you?
In the United States I believe that it is all to easy
to lose touch with Gratitude.
We just expect that we will have food
in the stores, electricity available, and medical services at ready.
Many places in the world have none of these or very sporadically.
What Cheryl and I have gone through this past year has really woken us
up to how truly spoiled we have been.
Yes! It has been tough, but in the long run
it has caused us to be stronger and live more in a state of Gratitude!
GRATITUDE MAKES WHAT YOU HAVE BE MORE THAN ENOUGH!
A Blessing in Disguise!
The Matrix is only a movie... right?
I can tell you after the last year that Cheryl and I have lived through...
The Matrix is a documentary!
Just think of all the things that you must do to be a good citizen.
Go to school, get a good job, not question the government, pay your taxes
and the list goes on and on.
If you don't do the norm you are a rebel, a trouble maker, problem
to society.
That is why they keep us so busy now a days.
You don't have time to really think.
If you think you might wake up and see the matrix for what
it really is. Then they can't control you.
It is past time to come together and say no more!
You have Dreams! You really want them to become reality!
Then you think about it and you decide that you are too old, don't
have enough money, not smart enough, who would really
want to listen to me...
The list goes on and on!
With all these limiting mindsets you are never going to
realize your dreams because what you think
is what you bring about into reality!
So it keeps YOU from living your dreams...
Sad thing is that you could think just the opposite.
You are not too old!
You do have enough money!
You are smart enough to figure it out!
People are waiting to listen to you!
Change the narrative!
Change the reality!
Capture YOUR DREAMS!
Hope for the future...
I find so little hope these days in many people.
I understand too.
With many jobs being eliminated, food and rent skyrocketing and
nothing changing, except to get worse I can very much understand.
Thing is change is the only constant.
So to get some hope for the future just embrace gratitude as your
go to. There is always something to be thankful for!
Yes, and your job may be eliminated, but maybe that is the opportunity
to start your own business or to learn a new skill!
Life will continue to change, but it is all how you look at it
which determines the hope you have for the future!
As we set out with the march to podcast episode 300 I want to share
what Cheryl and I have been through this past year.
Cheryl and I have always been able to pay our bills and still have some
left over. This all changed in this past year....
It started pretty much after we got back from Italy.
Nothing was really going right, investments were not coming in savings were going fast and life changed!
Let me tell you in this country you can be doing alright and be homeless almost overnight. Thankfully that has not been our case.
What we have learned from this journey is how helpless you feel and how people treat you.
That is what Cheryl and I share in this episode of the Dream Catcher podcast!
Yes! It is time to Celebrate!
I can't believe that it has been 200 Dream Catcher podcast episodes already!
I didn't even know that three and a half years ago that podcasting
was even my dream,,, It did intrigue me though.
I am so glad that I decided to take a chance and try podcasting out!
That is many times how dreams work,,, you don't know until you try!
Dreams don't work unless you do!
With that being said this amazing dream is much different than I thought it would
be starting out.
How I did things on episodes 1-10 is much different than
how I do them today. It is a learning process that I have enjoyed, but not
without frustrations. Anything worth while is work... this includes dreams!
I hope this doesn't dissuade anyone from going after their dreams because it
is so worth it!
If I had not gone after this dream we wouldn't be talking right now
and we would not have this 200th Dream Catcher Podcast Celebration Episode!
So without further ado here is the 200 episode!
Hope you enjoy it!

After years of battling untreated mental illness, being in and out of jail, on and off the street today I am 5 months sober. And I owe it all to the program of recovery and my higher power. I am not a religious person but I do believe in something greater then me. I work the 12 steps, work with a sponsor and have a support group of women that all help hold me accountable and keep me on track all while working full time and being a mother. I have been in and out of a few treatment facilities but it didn't work until I wanted it for myself. And today I truly want it for me, No one else.
If I could pass anything on it is that there are resources available and that you just have to be able to ask for the help. I as an addict use to go to extreme measure to get my next high. Now I'm taking an extreme measure to make sure I never get high again.

Archie Montgomery, born in Dodge City Kansas, raised in Portland, Oregon and now resident of Hastings, Nebraska has worn many hats over the years and enjoys lots of hobbies!
One of his hobbies where I first met Archie was at the Blue Moon cafe having his breakfast and drinking coffee. I also have the hobby of drinking coffee so our first conversation was a very enjoyable one.
We then discussed his time in the Marine Corp, Boarder Patrol, U.S. Customs and all the people he meet who were coming back into the country, such as Lauren Bacall and Don Rickles.
Next we then went on to talk about his interest in Reading, Science and Biblical Scripture!
We then discussed what was of most interest to me... his collection of guns and vintage guns!
The history, the trials and errors of a manufacture getting a gun to work and having a first gun sale was amazing!
I have left so many things out of this description so please check out this episode of the Dream Catcher Podcast!
Work Harder isn't that what they tell you to do today!
You are not making enough money to pay your bills etc.
Work Harder!
You want to take a vacation...
Work Harder!
It seems to be the solution to everything doesn't it?
Well Cheryl and I have been in this situation many times
and we drank the Kool and and worked harder to only
find us with less time and no more money!
God does not want us to work harder!
He wants us to work at a peaceful pace and enjoy our life!
God will provide!
Something Cheryl and I have found these last 8 months!
So don't work harder, work smarter and enjoy your life!
My name is Karl Elliott I’m an alcohol free coach and mentor.
For nearly 20 years I was an heavy drinker, every night drinking in excess of 10 pints of lager. I was unable to hold down a relationship, was a part time dad, worked hard everyday but never had any money. Lived at my parents and never saw that would ever change. Plus I was always numbing these demons in my head of self doubt and sabotage. I was leading a destructive life for myself. Then from 2013-2016 I just pressed the self destruct button, drinking rose to nearly 15 pints a night and I felt like giving up.
Then in 2016 I came across a PDF eBook online from a guy called Andy Ramage. He’d changed his life around and it was all because he gave up alcohol for a year. I wanted that it spoke to me so I contacted him. I’m now 8 years sober with 3 year old twin girls, married to my gorgeous wife Claire. Most of all I’m living my best life and all this only happened to me since I quit the alcohol.
If you want to get coached and mentored by me or my wife to take a break from alcohol or to quit, then

Who made the Rules?
Whether or not we live by many unwritten rules. Until recently I had never really thought about or were really aware of these rules.
Like the rule of always have your yard perfect... well watered, green etc.
Really? Why? Maybe wild with flowers and rocks would rock!
One rule that still puzzles me is that you must go to College to get a good job. Maybe start a Business?!
You would think these rule would have long ago died out especially with today's world. I could go on for along time yet, but what rules are you living by and you have no idea why?
Maybe it is time to change the rule of living by the unwritten rules?

Life is great until it is not!
It is easy to be grateful when everything is going your way!
Then life happens as the saying goes!
Not so easy to find gratefulness in your Life!
But!
As the title of this episode states...
There is Always Something to Be grateful For!
Ra Netjer is an ordained Buddhist Monk who quit his 6 figure Silicon Valley tech job to be a Spiritual Awakening Mentor and fulfill his mission of uplifting the consciousness of the world by helping millions of Awakening Souls discover their Enlightenment.
After years of struggles through his Dark Nights of the Soul — battling depression, utter hopelessness and meaningless on his path to Self-Realization, he recognized his suffering was actually a blessing that helped him see a repeating pattern — that he then saw with thousands of others Spiritual seekers whom he helped over the years. This insight called him to start his Spiritual Awakening mentorship program and a loving community for them.
Born in a small coastal village in the southern part of India and raised by parents who were Energy Healers, Ra had his first Awakening at about 5 years old, remembering why he had incarnated, demanding “Divine Mother”, crying that his higher purpose be granted to him.
Clairvoyant since his childhood, Ra could naturally see auras, other dimensions, light beings and energies. He practiced energy healing (mentored by his late father, who helped and healed about a million people), worked with Ascended Masters and had a range of powerful mystical experiences in his early life.
In his late teens, after a rebellious phase where he didn’t care for anything remotely related to God and then a pivotal wake-up call that opened his eyes, Ra re-started his search for True Happiness and Purpose, this time going all in — ready to give up everything for it.
Exploring multiple paths with a yearning for Self-Realization, Ra dove into Kriya-Yoga, Christianity, Sufism, Psychology, New Age paths such as Law of Attraction, Channelling and various paths within Hinduism as he studied with many Spiritual teachers and mystics. He finally found his path in Non-Duality (Advaita Vedanta) and later became ordained as a Monk through a Buddhist Mysticism teacher. He brings forth the deeper essence — the common thread in various Spiritual paths and makes it simple and accessible to everyone who seeks to find Peace, Freedom, Truth and Liberation from suffering.
Ra has been equally multi-faceted in his professional career where he sought to find himself through work - as an Energy Healer, Actor (lead roles in Indian movies) where he learned to discover and express different aspects of himself, Professional Photographer where he saw the innate beauty in everything, and a Software Developer where he used programming as a meditative practice.
Ra now lives in the San Francisco Bay area in California, loves scuba and free diving, martial arts, learning and traveling as much as he can. In 2022, Ra quit his 6 figure tech job so he can devote all his time and energy to fulfill his mission of uplifting the consciousness of the world, that could not wait any longer. He currently focuses on teaching embodied mystical practices to help his students integrate their Awakening and provides free workshops, teaches Meditative Eating, mentorship programs, and fosters Spiritual learning communities.

Love I believe is the way most of enter this world, but then what happens?
As we grow we lose sight of what makes life great we grow our egos and
life happens. Many of us go many years this way.
To be clear I think that God
has a purpose for all of us with our time here on this planet!
But God has to get pretty
upfront with us! We think that we don't need him... we will just grind
and work hard and we will be successful.
In reality everything that we have is
by the grace of God!
So to get your attention God takes nearly everything away from you including your ego!
This is where Cheryl and I have been for a while now.
At first it is very painful, but in reality it hopefully leads to an awakening that leads
you to God's Love!
This is where we are at now! It is an amazing place!
Life happens! It can be good or bad or so we think! What if there were no good or bad or no right or wrong? Good and being right is easy! What if bad and being wrong was also helping us to our best life! This is what Cheryl and I have found in the last 9 months! The latter took us on paths that we would have never thought would bring us to GOD! Brought us closer together as a couple, given us more confidence and put us on our path to our Dream Life!
Who would have thought?!

With his work ethic and discipline he is a man to watch!
The World is waiting! The outlook appears bleak, but in all reality it is not as bad as it seems! We have made in roads, but have so much further to go! There definitely are areas that we have failed at. The amount of homeless in the USA is terrible! Would be great if our US government did what they were elected to do! Would be nice if our schools actually taught us what we really needed to be successful in life! The good thing is all of these issues plus many more can be addressed by we the people! This is where the power comes in and change for the better occurs! So next time you think that someone should do something about that remember... You are someone! The World is Waiting!
So why do over half of all marriages end in divorce?
Why have Cheryl and I bucked the trend and been married
over 33 Years?
In this episode we discuss what we have found over the years and
what other people who are thinking about getting married or who
are struggling with marriage can do to have similar success.
Our whole life is dictated by time! There never seems to be enough!
We rush off to work or an appointment making sure that we make it on time!
Many things can affect our use of time! Got up late, someone is sick, car broke down etc.
This is where GOD'S time come in!
We pray for some issue to be resolved or something to come into fruition.
We give it to GOD like we are suppose to! Awesome!
Thing is we expect GOD to have answered the prayer in a certain amount of time because we need whatever we prayed for to happen!
Why is it with our prayers we basically say it is what it is, but with God is has to be done on a timeline?
This is the topic for this episode of the Dream Catcher Podcast!
GOD"S Timing! Never Early, Never Late, Always Right on Time!
Why do most of us fear new beginnings?
The fear of the unknown?
Content where we are at!
Takes to much effort!
Lack of time and/or resources.
Plus many other possible reasons!
But!
What if the new beginning was better than you imagined?
What if you were able to live your Dream Life?
What if you solved the homeless problem or some other problem?
So new beginning are not to be feared, but embraced!
You will never know if you don't go after those new beginnings!
You have always heard that to be kind that everyone is going through something!
I am here to tell you that this is definitely the truth!
Cheryl and I have faced going through something for quite some time now...
If it were not for the kind loving people around us I really don't know what we
would be doing. Not catching dreams that is for sure!
What Cheryl and I don't know is how people that don't have support around them
function? As a society I believe that we can do much better to be kind and understanding!
So remember that since society doesn't provide much kindness we need to!
Love is truly what makes the world go around!
Then why is it so difficult to love ourselves?
This is what I talk about in this latest episode
of the Dream Catcher Podcast!
For without Love you can not give Love!
Without giving Love you can not receive Love!
Love is what Life is all about!
**Judge Not, That Ye Be Not Judged!
So how much do you judge others in a days time?
If you are like me probably more than you realize.
So how does that affect your and others life?
Maybe it is what is keeping you from going after and getting your Dream Life?
Join me today as I discuss my thought on this and other ideas!**
Searching!
From the time we are born to the day we die we search!
When we are young in general we do a lot of searching
from what toy we are going to play with to what school
we will attend.
Life is great and exciting because we are
Searching!
It is when we get to be adults that we tend to not do as
much searching and life gets boring because we start to settle.
As adults it is why I believe that everyone is working for the
weekend and their two week vacation for the chance to search!
It is also I believe the reason why most people don't catch their dreams!
It takes searching to truly know what your dreams entails.
So keep on searching and Catching your Dreams!
The Title pretty much says it all!
When you have gratitude it makes a little enough!
Next time you are complaining remember that there are people in the world with so much less than you that are happy because of gratitude!
Why is play a four letter word in today's society?
Why do we feel that we must be productive every day?
Why do we feel guilt and anxiety if we are not working and productive?
Why is Lazy not a four letter word?
Listen as my wife Cheryl and I discuss all of these questions and more!
Hello, My name is Juan Estrada. I am 34 years old I moved here to the United States when I was 6 yrs old.
Growing up most of my life I was considered illegal in this country. I faced issues with that like not being able to get a drivers license at 16 when everybody else was getting theirs. Hard to explain to my classmates of why I couldn't. After high school I worked as a hired hand on a pig farm did that for 7 years went on to work at a pipe machine shop. I started welding pipes together before moving to the machine shop and learning how to run a manual lathe. While working there I started a family with my lovely lady. When our second was born I made the hard decision to go back to my old job for the earlier afternoons I could be off work around 3 compared to the machine shop at 5:30.
Most nights I'd get home just to tuck in the little ones to bed.
Did another 4 years at the farm during that time we had a third child. I wanted to get out of the farm the work was hurting my body and I would cone home just irritated and miserable. My lady suggested I apply for a bilingual position at Verizon, I said they would never hire me because I lacked the college education. Well she filled out the application and I hit send. Fast forward and I've been with the company for almost 3 years. March 15th will mark the 3 years in that time I've dealt with bell's palsy, a motorcycle accident which I was very lucky to have been able to walk away from. I've also won 3 awards. My first full year I hit the 900 high achievers club, second year I sold the most Verizon Visa cards in the company and also made presidents club the top 10 in my conference get to make it. I'm very blessed to have my family and kids with me work hard to keep a roof over their head and to provide for them. I've been able to support my wife to stay home and take care of our little ones.
I have always heard growing up to "Give it to God"!
I have to say I always thought it was for the weak individual that did that!
I thought I am tough, I am strong, I will just work harder, I will just grind!
That will take care of the problem!
Well I am here to tell you that if you have favor with God that might work?
It was with that mindset that I found out that isn't always the case!
Until last Summer Cheryl and I had been successful, paid all our bills on time etc.
Then it all changed very quickly...
It didn't matter how much Cheryl and I worked we were losing it all.
I was so scared and frustrated. Nothing worked.
It was through this that I started to have a relationship with God!
Strange at first, but so awesome now!!
I asked him why he let this happen to Cheryl and I?
He said I needed you to lose it all so you would start depending on me!
Fast forward to today!
Life is great because I give all our problems to God!
Then as he directs I am to be still.
This is so peaceful and comforting!
Enjoying our life by giving it to God!!
Love is truly the answer!
When we have love and give love our world is so much better!
Don't Believe me?
Think of a marriage without love...
Friendship without love...
Job you don't love...
Children raised without love...
God says we have two things to do!
Love him with all our might and
Love our neighbors as we love ourself!
So I say again!!
LOVE is the answer!
In today's world we are able to do most things by ourselves.
I guess I don't think that is a great thing...
We never really have to talk to people
Don't need to go get our groceries...
Can take trips more likely for business than family
Can work 7 days a week and never talk or be needed
Find our spouse by an App rather than a date
Pretty much live by way of our phone and never need anyone.
On the surface sounds interesting?!
In reality we are social animals who need contact!
I believe this is why we have so much depression, anxiety and sadness.
This will require much work to change this situation,
but nothing changes if nothings changes!
I am late! I am late! For a very important date!
Isn't that the way most of us live our lives today?
Why is it that way?
Would God want us to live our lives that way?
I would guess not...
Then why do we do it?
That is the topic of this episode of the Dream Catcher Podcast!
The title of this episode is Surrender!
Many times in life we surrender to what our story is that we keep telling ourselves. I am too fat, I am too stupid, whatever your "story" is, is what your life will reflect!
So in reality we should never surrender to is our own beliefs! We are not an unbiased participant!
We should NOT surrender to the view that we will be successful if we just work harder either!
I am here to tell you that is NOT always the case!
Hard Work does not equate to Success!
IF IT DOES IT IS GOD'S WILL!
Otherwise we need to SURRENDER, GIVE IT TO GOD and BE STILL!
When Success occurs then it is true!

To be or not to be is the question I have been asking myself lately!
Especially since my post recently on Facebook.
In this post I stated that our purpose in life is to help others.
Simple and to the point wouldn't you say?!
I, along with most of the people commenting agreed with this statement.
That was until I had this gentleman who disagreed.
I asked him if not to be this what are you here for in this life?
He stated "ToBe"
At first I didn't understand his point...
Then after awhile it started coming to me that he was absolutely right!
For most of us and for most of our life we are trying to "be" something
other than what we were born to "be!"
So really to live your life you need to surrender and just "be" the person
you were born to "be!"
Only way you will truly Catch Your Dreams!
My name is Septer Duang. I am from South Sudan. I have been living in America for about 24 years. My family and I migrated to the United States when I was 6 years old. I grew up in Kool-Aid city in Nebraska. Hastings is a town located in central Nebraska. Hastings Nebraska is the birthplace of Kool-Aid. I spent the majority of my adolescent and teenage years there. In 2019 I graduated from the University of Nebraska. Later on this year I am expecting to enter graduate school at Creighton university to become a physical therapist. My passion is in athletics and helping other people. Shortly after completing my undergraduate I understood that physical therapy is the right career for me to fulfill my calling.
In this episode I discuss that to catch a dream or pretty much anything you must grow!
I mean the same person who is doing this podcast is not the person I was two years ago! I had to grow!
I think that most of us forget that when we want something or to do something it takes time and growth! Most of us today want it right now!
The person you are now can not likely catch their dreams because that takes a new mindset. If you want to become athletic it will take work and growth!
A process and a journey!
You must grow into a new person and mindset to Catch Your Dreams!

I find in today's world that many things are odd!
We put up with so many things that are odd compared to when I grew up in the 70's!
Why do we let teachers be greatly underpaid and let athletes get paid obscene amounts! I find that odd!
Why do we let others raise our kids without a second thought? When I was growing up I knew of no kids in daycare. Yes, and you are probably saying Mark we can't make ends
meet without two or more incomes! So why do we put up with that? I find that odd too!
In this episode I find many other things odd! Hopefully this episode will start a dialogue on how we can change things for the better!
For what we allow continues!
Nothing changes if nothing changes!
I think that many of us grew up knowing of God. Many went to Sunday school and
Church, but as far as really knowing God that is where it ended!
This was definitely our story until recently when our life was up ended.
This is our story of how Cheryl and I got to really know God and how it has gotten us to today!
Having Faith in God, knowing that life happens for you, not to you and that when you need help all you need to do is ask!
It has been a wonderful journey and we wanted to share it for others who are lost and suffering too! There is hope! Pray!
Join me on this special episode!

The direction to your dream life is anything, but a straight path.
In this episode Cheryl and I talk about all the things that most people do when life happens and how this will not get you to your dreams!
When life happens you must not stop your forward movement even though it feels like the right thing to do.
Not matter what you must continue to take action and keep moving forward! It becomes a non-negotiable!
This is when your dreams become a reality!
The gift of Christmas is so much more than giving gifts! It is an opportunity to live your life anew! To start making a difference in yours and other people lives! There is so much need in the world that most of the year is over looked, but at Christmas it is a chance to change that! So take time this Christmas season to reflect on what YOU can do to make this world a better place!
Are you living in the moment? Most people today are not! There is an epidemic of
chasing after the next thing the next moment, the next holiday whatever it may be!
When you do this your are not really living and making great memories because you are always looking towards the next thing. When you do get to something like a holiday you are unable to enjoy it because you are already looking towards the next thing!
This keeps you from living your best life and leaves you with a hollow life.
In this episode I talk about the causes I believe why most people are not living in the moment and what can be done to change this so they too can live their best life!

When his parents found him paralyzed on their bedroom floor at age 22, Jeffrey Frankel knew his life was about to turn upside down…with no idea why. Diagnosed with stroke and testicular cancer, Frankel’s prospects grew increasingly dim by the day.
After 12 days in a coma, he began an incredibly long and painful journey at what should have been the prime of his life. Doctors, family, friends, an unceasingly loyal girlfriend, and his overwhelming will to live combined to enable him to achieve his two goals: to be healthy and regain his independence.
Part of his journey back to independence was Jeffrey writing the book "But I'm a Good Me!"
Written from his perspective as a middle-aged man who’s experienced life’s ups-and-downs, Jeffrey has finally put to rest his quest to learn just what happened, and now knows why nobody ever wanted to talk about those missing 12 days.

Welcome to the Thanksgiving episode of the Dream Catcher podcast!
Today Cheryl, my wife and I talk about what we are thankful for!
We also discuss about people who are struggling and what we and they can do
to make their lives better!
Announcement that there are BIG things upcoming with the
Dream Catcher Brand! Stay Tuned!
Thanks to all of you for listening and watching the Dream Catcher Podcast!
Today's podcast is a little different!
I have so people wanting to know how I got to where I am today!
This is my story with all its ups and downs!
I hope this helps people realize that if I can do it so can they! You definitely have
to believe and never give up!!
It is only when you quit that you fail!
Kerri's belief is that we are only given what we can handle, and if the universe knows what you can handle. There's no telling what you are truly capable of.
For years her voice was stifled and she wanted to give women a voice who have been subject to domestic violence, and erase the victim mentality. She also wanted to show that there is hope so long as you keep moving towards your dreams, and passions.
Together, we can answer the question… “Why do we stay?”, and through community, we can end the violence and work towards our own happily ever after.
**Currently she is the COO of Go Boldly Mastermind and one of the founders of Kaysasa (Non Profit -still being formed).
Kerri also runs her own LLC business, which consists of being a Social Media Strategist, managing social media, web design and working with companies to launch their programs/businesses.**
How often in life do we try and force something? For that matter how often do we chase rather than let something be attracted to ourselves by self improvement?
That is what this episode of the Dream Catcher podcast is all about! Chasing or forcing will not work long term. With this episode I discuss what I have slowly learned. It has been a process and I slip up regularly.
Life improves greatly when you master the process of not chasing or forcing!
I am Mark Rudd Larsen and I have been asking myself this question many times lately?
So why is it?
I hear many people say that these people lack discipline.
This in many cases is not true!
I have found so many people having the discipline of working multiple
jobs and still are barely making it.
If you are barely making it you are surely are not going to add something
to the mix that takes even more time and money!
So they are stuck! Lacking time and resources and not knowing where to start.
Well, I am working on developing a path so more people can actually catch their Dreams!
Direction and support! Basically be the person that I wished I had found
when I started my journey!

A bit About Me
Certified Coach, Husband, Father, Brother, Friend
From the outside I had a good life growing up - but on the inside, I was a mess.
I was bullied throughout school and constantly tried living up to an academic family while being 'diagnosed' with dyslexia and learning difficulties. For almost a decade I suffered from depression and low self-esteem and turned to substances to (unsuccessfully) numb the pain.
My life was spiraling out of control and I knew that I needed to do something about it.
After reading 'The Power of Now', I became aware that the only way out of my inner pains was to work on healing my inner self. It seems so obvious to me now looking back, but at the time I had only ever looked for external solutions. And thus my transformative journey had begun...
I hitchhiked across Europe, rode by horseback through Mongolia and caravanned around South America, living with eco-communities in the mountains and the deserts, all while working on my thought patterns with the intention to better understand myself and to heal, from the inside out.
I now live a fulfilling life, am very happily married and father to a beautiful baby girl.

Joseph Bongiovi
Founder / Meditation Instructor / Wellness Life Coach
Joseph Bongiovi is a Certified Life Coach and Meditation Instructor, having completed his studies at The Jay Shetty Certification School to become a Certified life coach licensed by The Association of Coaching . He also studied at The Chopra Center becoming a certified teacher of Primordial Sound Meditation.
Joseph Bongiovi was born in 1962 in a small town in New Jersey. He’s the youngest of four children and the only boy. Ironically, Joseph has four children of his own, the youngest being a boy. So, it’s safe to say that Joseph has spent a good amount of time living around feminine energy “ I believe growing up with three older sisters and raising three daughters have given me a diverse perspective on life.”
At the age of 21 Joseph made a significant choice in his life and decided to get clean and sober. “Getting clean and sober at such a young age has had a significant impact on my life. I embraced early on in my life the idea of personal introspection and the value of having a healthy spiritual foundation.”
From that pivotal moment on, it’s been a process of continually evolving as a spiritual being having a human experience for Joseph. There are no drugs or alcohol to use as an escape from life any longer. Any bad habit that I find I cannot do without, I eliminate.”
Part of being clean and sober requires a constant effort to look at yourself and your surroundings. You learn to take personal inventories and clear the slate of your life of unwelcomed character defects and in return embrace ideologies that provide a healthy, productive, loving and empathetic lifestyle.
“I began to read any self-help book I could find, journaling and meditating on a regular basis early on in my sobriety. While I didn’t meditate or journal nearly as consistently back then, ultimately it offered me the opportunity to experience the benefits enough to embrace it later in life.
Today, Joseph is an avid daily meditator and is constantly studying up on both his Life Coaching capabilities as well as his meditation, mindfulness, spiritual and motivational areas of his life. “One of the most impactful figures for me though my studies have been Dr. Wayne Dyer. He’s shown me that to be a strong, centered and secure man in the world you have to be brave enough to show your emotions, admit your faults and be as spiritually empathetic of others as possible. Not only is it not a weakness to be spiritually motivated, it’s a strength and it’s time for men to embrace this fact. My spiritual path has given me the gift of love, for myself and for the world.” Joseph continues through his studies to discover and embrace that we are all the same, coming from the same source and experiencing the same life.” According to Pema Chodron’s perquisites Joseph is a true Spiritual Warrior.

Are you always on the run? No time to even enjoy a moment of your Life?
Well, you have a lot of company in today's world!
Bad thing is that you are always in a rush to the next moment only to eventually
run out of next moments! Then your life is over and you have even captured your
hopes and dreams! Don't let this be you!
In todays's episode we take about the reasons we are all in a rush and
how you can change that and start to enjoy your Best Life!
Like the title states... What are you so afraid of?
Many of life's decisions I believe are influenced by fear!
The sad thing is I think that many people don't even realize that!
When was the last time you heard someone say I am afraid that
we can't make it. I am afraid we don't have enough money for ...
Thing is I believe many of us don't even realize we are saying this.
So for homework I want you to make an effort to keep track of your fears.
Write them down! Decide if it is a legitimate fear or one keeping you from
living your best life. You can not live your Dream Life without managing your fears!
One week ago is only 7 days ago, but so much can happen in a split second! Make sure you are part of your life so you don't miss it!
All you have is now so don't live your life today like you have Unlimited time!
One week ago my wife didn't know that she was going to be in a car accident on Tuesday.
She fared very well in the accident, but one second later in the accident and her life could have been over. Always live for today!
Yes! Your Life you are experiencing right this moment was brought about by your perception!
For example: What is your perception of someone who doesn't finish High school?
Is your perception in this case actual reality?
More than likely not.
So if you want a different life or want to start living your best life you must adjust your perception!
Is that new task, that will take you to your next level really that hard or is that just your perception?
New reality, new perception!

My most important role... I am a dad of twins (boy and girl) living in Spain, although I spent 17 years living in the UK.
I started in Network Marketing in 1999 and in 2009 I discovered what today would be a real passion... Internet Marketing :)
Today, I am part of a Network Marketing company
I feel completely aligned with as it helps people with our most precious asset, our health.
Not only the products are high-end quality (perhaps the best in the planet), but members can get them at wholesale prices, which makes us the only MLM company in history offering such high quality products at a fraction of a cost, anywhere in the world.
Just like many of us here, I have WASTED YEARS chasing the "shiny objects" that promised the millions... I spent more money that what I care to remember, been scammed a few times, etc...
Sounds familiar?
For 10 vears I did run an ecommerce business which gave me the lifestyle we so often see advertised, however, it was not that glamorous...
Working 16+ hours every single day, is not my definition of "lifestyle".
It hurts me to admit that my familv suffered as a result. If onlv I could go back in time...:'
You see, I was able to rent a decent house in the city (hint: was not cheap), put the kids in one of the most expensive British schools in the city and my wife, back then, did not need to work.
However, everything that once was "gold", turned into a disaster...
To cut a LONG story short, I was made homeless and my a** was saved at the last minute by my brother...
Imagine been on the street with boxes and cases, my wife and 2 small children (they were 4 ears old back then).
I do not wish anybody to go through that.
The stress, frustration, perhaps even depression, was far too much to bear and cannot be described in words.
Luckily, I was able to borrow some money from a friend that allowed to rebuild my "empire" (at least for a while).
I was back in business.
Then in 2020 EVERYTHING that could go wrong, DID.
To put it in perspective, financial issues were the least of my concerns...
Family members passing away, problems with the law for a serious offense I was not even guilty of, but took me 1 year to prove my innocence... and
Those responsible did not pay for the trouble they got me in... and still on the street.
Not getting into more detail...
In a nutshell, and risking sounding dramatic, l've had a very rough time...
However, I can now see that all the "stuff" that ever happened, has led me to a path of renewed motivation, discipline and commitment to make a better life for my family and all the people I care about, including people joining my main business.
I see myself as someone ready to serve. Gone are the days of "me, me, me".
I want to help people in all areas of their lives, not just financially, but in ways that are tangible, such as their health and well-being.
Really, we are in this planet once, and then we sadly die (as far as we know, perhaps we come back again... but that would be a discussion for another day, ha ha).
So... let's try and do some good whilst we are here in this "excursion" we call life, and leave the world in a better place than when we arrived.
Thanks for reading, I am honored you got this far
:)
Whatever you do...
TO YOUR Success, ALWAYS!

BEHIND MY SMILE: A RAINBOW BABY STORY was originally written as a journal to help me work through my traumas: I had a difficult childhood due to chronic illnesses, suffered and courageously left an abusive relationship, found my one person, then tragically lost our daughter in utero through termination for medical reasons (TFMR). The wonderful joy of my son's conception shortly after was shadowed by my PTSD and constant fear that I would lose him too. I never knew such conflicting emotions could exist simultaneously! Soon after the birth of my rainbow baby, we nearly lost him to a major illness. Despite all of these obstacles, I was able to find my voice, speak out, and eventually own my strength as a woman and a first time mother to a rainbow baby. I realized the potential my story has to help other women as I wish I had been helped. And, it has a happy ending!

Paul Tootalian, South Haven, Michigan's CCO of The Higher Haven Retreat Center!
Working as an advertising writer, acquiring many of the external trappings our culture offers to bring about a sense of satisfaction and happiness, something was certainly missing from the young professional and personal life of Paul Sarkes Tootalian. A decision on the advent of the new millennium led to a cross-country move from the East Coast's concrete and metal canyons to the hardpan of Arizona's wild Sonoran Desert, where Paul found himself seated at a week-long silent meditation retreat. The retreat culminated in a Native American purification Ceremony that markedly altered his nature. In that stillness, he was touched by a depth of peace and clarity beyond anvthing previously experienced. Soon after, he met an authentic Medicine Man, a Chief and tribal leader who mentored him and passed on the Ceremonies and mind-training techniques of his ancient culture.
Returning ten years later to his Midwest roots, Paul began sharing his knowledge and experience. The quick realization came that folks needed more than just methods and direction during an hour-long workshop at a yoga studio. People wanted a Way that would help them rise above life's mundane frills for a more expansive view, a view that would dissolve their feelings of alienation and penetrate life's very meaning, not unlike what occurred for him. Most of the psycho-spiritual shifts Paul personally experienced happened over days and weeks on retreat, openings created by extended periods of sitting meditation. Ergo, the need arose for a place of permanent practice, a sanctuary away from the relentless distractions of our modern age. After a diligent search over several years, a special stretch of southwest Michigan farmland presented itself in the Fall of 2014, becoming the foundation for the meditation and healing retreat center he developed into TheHigher Haven https://www.higherhaven.com/
Today, Paul's making good on his pact with his Indian Chief Teacher to help his people heal, and doing for others what was done for him.
Higher Haven Retreat Center, movement for the body, stillness for the mind, healing for the heart.

John here... Daniel "John" Carey.
I am a survivor of child abuse and assault in a violent, poverty-stricken, extremely dysfunctional household of many misfortunes with seven brothers and sisters, and troubled parents who both suffered personality-altering head injuries when I was four.
Recovering from that, I switched to a vegan diet (as one of the doctors suggested), and never went on dialysis - as other doctors had advised. I also didn't undergo the kidney transplant the other doctors said I would need to stay alive.
Really, who is this Mark Rudd Larsen Dude and what does he do?
In this episode I give you a little bit of background of who I am and
how I have got to the place I am today!
I further discuss the awesomeness of
chasing your dreams and how to overcome the pitfalls along the way!
So join me as I let you in on what is next in my life and for the
Dream Catcher Brand!

Patrick James Elkins is a husband and father with an inspiring entrepreneurship story about having an idea, not knowing where to start, but not taking “NO” for an answer. This meant not allowing his own insecurities to discredit, limit, disqualify, or STOP him from pursuing a dream. Instead, doing whatever it takes to START. His message of encouragement to others who have a dream or idea is to Stop Stopping, and Start Starting!
After the loss of a job, followed by the loss of his father-in-law, both due to Covid, Patrick and his family chose not to let their circumstances dictate their future. He is now honored to share his family’s story and journey as they create the world’s #1 Kid Safe Marketplace.
TOYTLE is designed for kids to buy, sell, and trade toys with complete parental supervision. Kids’ #1 language is fun, and the #1 way that they learn is by doing.

With Toytle, they will have loads of fun, make some extra money, and learn valuable life skills like financial literacy, communication, and responsibility along the way!

Do you judge people by their age? I know most of us do, but why?
Well, I am turning 60 this week and I have been hit with you must be going to retire!
Retirement is something I will never do because I love what I am doing greatly!
Age should never be the reason anyone retires or does anything!
The same factors are at play with young people! We seem to think that since they are young and have little life experience that they have nothing to offer! Wrong!
How much in life do we miss because we are always assuming or dismissing someone because of their age!
In this episode my wife Cheryl and I discuss our views on age and what we believe could be and needs to be changed to correct this problem!

Have you wondered how some people are so successful and other not so much?
Well many times it is there success mindset!
What is mindset anyway and how can I change mine?
Well mindset as defined by the Oxford Dictionary is the established set of attitudes held by someone.

Can mindset be changed? Absolutely!
Easy? Not necessarily, but well worth it!

Are you thankful?
Do you even think about it? With so many of us, we are blessed daily to have many things just right there, that we take them for granted.
Well, Cheryl and I did too until here advanced cancer in 2015. Had never really been thankful for great health until it was lost it! It was our wake up call!
What are you thankful for?
Will you need a wake up call too? Take some time today and write down 10 things that you are thankful for! Bring those things into the physical world by writing them down! Realize that when you are thankful for what you have you get more things to be thankful for!
To contact: aday6062@gmail.com
How do you catch a dream? Sounds like it shouldn't be too hard doesn't it?
Well, that was the place Cheryl and I were after her cancer scare and the reality of all we have is NOW! Simple... yes? no!
That is when we sought out how to catch our dreams from so called experts!
Great idea, but except for a few amazing individuals, who did help greatly, most people were more lost than we were when it came to catching your dreams!
That is when Cheryl and I decided that somebody should do something about this and that somebody was us!
So was born Dream Catcher and the process of how to truly catch your dreams!
So join me while I discuss how you too can catch all your dreams!
