They say life is what happens when you're busy making other plans, and that was exactly the case for Eddie Mazzu.
Growing up in blue-collar Buffalo, NY, Eddie had examples of hard work all around him. That's simply the area's culture, but unfortunately, it doesn't always equate to a desired life. After 10 years as an ironworker, performing hard manual labor day in and day out, Eddie was injured on the job. This injury would prove to be one of the most challenging times of his life, but the catalyst that was needed to make a major change.
Quickly realizing that he had to be his own biggest advocate to get the care he needed, he turned his passion of hard work and helping others into a second career as a lawyer! (Who does that??)Â
In this episode, we discuss that career shift, what it was like going back to school at a later age, what hard work and leadership mean to him, and how he has been able to craft a life for himself, his beautiful wife, and his awesome kids that they all love.

Sam Kaufman is a business owner, business coach, husband, father, entrepreneur, and a man who...like many of us...is striving to be the best version of himself possible.
He's also a client of mine in the fitness realm and has had quite the journey over the years in pursuit of good health and a positive body image, both of which have been found to be elusive.
In this episode, we discuss the different approaches we've taken this year in his fitness routine, how it's different, overcoming the mindset of not wanting to lose strength but still wanting to lose weight, and a host of other topics that men don't seem to talk enough about.
If you're a dude who struggles with who you see in the mirror, you're not alone. Sam and I get real about body dysmorphia and hopefully lend some wisdom for those who could benefit from more acceptance of self.

Everyone has a story, but when that story involves getting rid of all your things and heading to the other side of the world without a return flight, I'm intrigued.
In this episode, I chat with my good friend and client Josh Meunier. Currently the Head of Sales at Winrate Consulting, the journey to get to this point in his life was not easy.

Living overseas for almost two years in Asia and eventually checking off a bucket list item of hiking to Mount Everest base camp, he is no stranger to getting uncomfortable and taking calculated risks to improve his life.
Tune in to this wide-ranging discussion and hear how both good and bad choices have shaped Josh into the man he is today.

Pedro Meneses is a man on a mission. Born in Guatemala and essentially given everything he wanted growing up, he soon realized the "opportunities" in front of him were keeping him from growing and maturing. Partying, drinking, and making not-so-good choices were the norm.Â
