Do you find it stressful when people say, "You need to be more resilient", without giving you any insight into how to do it? Would you or your team like to achieve more success with less stress?
My guest today is the epitome of resilience. Help me welcome Derrick McManus – Human Durability and High-Performance Mental Health coach.
Derrick is the Founder of the Australian Center for Human Durability. In a former life, Derrick was a police sniper, recovery diver and trained by the military SAS in counter-terrorist operations.
During one police mission to serve a warrant and arrest a known criminal, Derrick was shot 14 times with a high-powered rifle and lay on the ground for 3-hours before being rescued. Doctors say he defied the odds to survive those massive injuries. Derrick, better than anyone else, knows the importance of psychology and the dynamics of mental fitness, agility, and strength.
Human Durability is about going beyond resilience to sustaining optimal performance with less stress. Everyone improves with Human Durability training.

Jermane Cheathem is a self-described “minimalist entrepreneur that has created financial freedom by doing less.
Jermane grew up in a broken home; abandoned, scared, fearful. His life changed when he discovered sports and found his competitive spirit. Jermane never looked back.
Jermane went into sales determined to win. He set company sales records yet felt empty looking at the commission checks. How could he contribute so much value to the company and be paid so little? He knew then that he was playing the wrong game and decided to become an entrepreneur.
Now, after perfecting his business model and completing tens of millions in funded transactions, Jermane is on a mission to empower sales professionals to become financially independent by doing less; working smarter, not harder. Jermane enjoys the freedom of working from anywhere in the world and joins us today from Turkey.

Selling your service has as much to do with tranquility as tactics.
Anyone who hopes to be successful without selling their soul needs more than just sales training. They have to be at peace with sales.
As many as 85% of people in sales never intended to get into the business of selling, which means they're untrained and under-prepared.
To succeed in sales, you need to take your profession as seriously as any other professional does. Attorneys have to complete hours of continuing education every year. CPAs have to complete continuing education hours every year. How many do you plan on completing? If you want to be compensated like an executive, you need to act like an executive and that’s where Reclaiming Sales comes in. Robert Gillette has experience as an IT employee, salesman, middle manager, and business owner in more industries than he’d like to admit. As the owner of Reclaiming Sales, he hosts a podcast, is a Sales coach and consultant and facilitates a book club for anyone who sells anything… which is basically everyone. Robert is happily married with two children, and a San Francisco Bay Area native.

Then you need to connect with today’s guest.
Jordan Ilderton wants to be your Holistic CFO. Her approach is different than that of most CPAs and bookkeepers. She partners with a handful of business owners who want to grow and expand their businesses. Jordan believes this is a more comprehensive and holistic bookkeeping/CPA experience.
Jordan works with so many business owners who truly give their heart and soul to their business and they do not see the returns. They receive their financial reports but don’t know how to read them. They hear numbers and percentages, but do not know what to do with the information. They spin their wheels and are not where they thought they would be. Jordan decided to use her training and experience to partner with entrepreneurs to increase profitability and grow their businesses. Jordan wants to help YOU understand YOUR money so you can make more of it.

Naomi Mamiye was no stranger to tragedy and loss, but rather than giving up she turned to her creativity to start a business. People laughed when she proposed to start the Naomi Mamiye Design firm. Instead of letting it bring her down, she used it as fuel to propel herself ahead and prove them wrong.
Naomi pushed herself hard to get to the top of the design world. With a specialty in healthcare, Naomi travels across the United States designing hospitals, rehab centers, assisted living centers, drug rehab centers, and corporate offices. There is no single designer with as many projects to their name.
Today, years later, Naomi is considered a leader in the field and constantly gets asked by beginning designers for advice or to watch her work. Naomi spends endless hours with all, setting them up to start businesses of their own. Naomi is the epitome of the motto: A true leader creates more leaders!

In this research, Jim discovered a lack of planning among retirement-age business owners as they transition from the C-suite and navigate how to sell their business for a fair price.
His book “Half-Retire: Keep Your Business, Ditch the Stress” provides a structured retirement plan for business owners that enables them to shift from working income to equity income by owning, rather than working for, their company. Jim has authored two books on best practices for business models, “The 51 Fatal Business Errors and How to Avoid Them” and “Business Models for Dummies,” compiled through years of research and real-world lessons as a business owner and consultant.
You can learn more about Jim and his consulting practice from his website: https://halfretire.com/. You can also download a copy of the book The Half-Retire Blueprint from the website.

Vincent Mezzatesta is the President of Next-Level Strategies, Inc., a medical office business practice consultancy based in New York.
Vincent is an US Army veteran where he served 2 years active duty and 6 years reserve duty as a Nuclear, Chemical and Biological Weapons specialist and had a sub-specialty as a medic. Prior to starting his consulting business, Vincent worked at Clean Earth Inc., a hazardous waste facility doing compliance. He also worked in IT and, for a short time, owned a landscaping company with my ex-brothers-in-law.
Vincent started managing a medical practice when he realized that while doctors, like most professionals, are brilliant at what they do, they are not always savvy when it comes to managing their business. Vincent started his consultancy on the side. His accountant warned that Vincent that he was making too much money on 1099 and suggested that he incorporate to take advantage of the corporate benefits, and his consultancy was launched.
Fortunately, Vincent worked for someone who wanted to see him thrive. That physician referred Vincent to his colleagues who in turn referred Vincent to their colleagues, and that’s how his business grew.
Vincent credits his prior military experience and his knack for being disciplined for his success with Next-Level Strategies. Vincent says, “I found that doctors who are extremely smart when it comes to diagnosing a person's medical problem are extremely inefficient at running a medical practice.” He points to the amount of compliance required in the medical field as one of the reasons his business has thrived. Vincent lives in Brooklyn, New York, with his wife and 4 daughters.
You can connect with Vincent on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vincent-mezzatesta-05273a212/

Take a servant’s heart, an innate talent for organization, and the energy to make things happen. The result is Peachtree City, GA, charity executive Mike Conaway.
Mike spent 20 years in the corrugated industry in the U.S. and Central America, first as an engineer, then in sales and finally, as a business owner. The leadership skills he gained through sales and business were put to greater use when he became an ordained minister and coordinated a Peachtree City congregation’s outreach programs that included a “car care” that performed basic automotive services for needy individuals with many donated materials.
Another program provided after-school backpacks filled with food and necessities to children of working or absent parents.
Conaway’s community outreach led to a 501c3 nonprofit community health service, Healing Bridge Clinic, that provides healthcare to the underserved communities of central Georgia. First recruited to the board of directors, he became full time executive director in 2018. Since taking leadership of the HBC the value of medical care provided to the community has increased from $241,400 in 2017 to $1,200,000 in 2020. Mike led the organization through the 2020 pandemic shutdown while sustaining needed funding and increasing the impact made on the local community.
Mike is the co-founder of the Fore Our Community Charity Golf Classic – a partnership between two nonprofits serving the same community, coming together to raise money for both. Proving his creativity and flexibility, the Healing Bridge Clinic transformed its annual fundraising dinner to a virtual event that saved expenses while generating substantial monies for the organization. Additionally, the HBC’s services continued to expand while the pandemic provided a pause that allowed more creative administration of free medical services.
Mike Conaway believes that independent charitable institutions can serve communities as well or better than bureaucracies with appropriate support; that a helping hand at an appropriate time in an individual’s life can lead them to greater control of their future and perhaps, to financial independence and an opportunity to pay it forward to others.
Mike Conaway has been married for 37 years to wife Shirley and has one adult son, Shawn. He as an A.S. degree in industrial technologies from Vincennes University.

Glen Gould began his career at the age of 11 working for a catering company more years ago than he’d like to admit.
At 13 he took his first “real” job working at Dairy Queen and progressed to night manager at Taco Tico at age 15.
Following his dream of being a professional golfer, Glen worked at world-class resorts including The Tournament Players’ Club at Sawgrass where he learned first-hand how to treat customers.
It was during his time as a Golf Professional that Glen began to truly study successful people and organizations with the intention of learning what they do, how they do it, and replicating their results.
Using what he learned about how successful people connect, Glen became the president of the Punta Gorda (FL) Chamber of Commerce and later the Director of Small to Midsized Business at the Metro Atlanta Chamber. He concluded his chamber career at the Newnan-Coweta Chamber (2015 Small Chamber of the Year).

He’s authored four books including Meet Me at Starbucks and 101 Networking Nuggets. He’s also failed more times than most people try, learning more from his failures than from his successes.

David Edmonson believes life should be as simple as possible. It's been his life’s work, and the work of his company, to find an easier way to solve complex situations.
David’s background includes spending time working in disaster relief, video production, web hosting and even working in a warehouse, all of which helped build a rounded view of business and people.
David found a passion for problem solving that he’s been able to carry with him everywhere he goes. Even as a teen, he was drawn to technology. Working with an IBM industry veteran as a mentor, he learned to disassemble computers to their component parts and then reassembled the usable pieces into functioning systems that they could sell or donate into the community. Those formative years taught him valuable lessons and framed his life views.
Variux started as a website hosting company and David began to see the broken parts of the system. Ecommerce, and specifically, Magento seemed to be an area of complexity with many barriers to the business owner. It became clear that this was where his efforts needed to be focused, and the Variux of today began to take shape.
Today, David leads the team as both a mentor and a participant. Variux helps companies plan or fix their online stores so that they run better and stronger with the least amount of friction.

This is the first episode in a multi-part series titled "A Return to Chivalry." I’m actually in the process of writing a book by the same name. These are some of the thoughts, lessons, and epiphanies if you will, that have come out of my research.
In this series, we will explore the myths, the misconceptions, and the misgivings about Chivalry. I will explore the medieval code that defined acceptable conduct for the knights – both on and off the battlefield – and I will present my arguments for why I think we need to bring chivalry back for everyone - men and women alike. Join me!
