Beskrivelse

If you don't know the name Jaime Schmidt [https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaime-schmidt/], then you don't know Schmidt. But you probably do know the line of natural deodorant and products that she created, Schmidt. For a long time, it was the only natural deodorant that worked and smelled good. Wanting to use cleaner products, Jaime started that as a project out of her kitchen while she was pregnant with her son. She grew it into a company with 160 employees and brought in a reported $45 million in revenue all within seven years. On today’s podcast, Jaime tells Scott Evans the story of how she quit her job, drove cross country, and discovered a recipe that would change everything.

Dr. Zelana Montminy With The Reset And Restore

Now more than ever, what the world needs is the courage and resilience to deal with tough times. If there is any consolation from all the challenges we faced, it would be the discovery of the parts in us that show how we’re stronger than what we initially thought. In this episode, Scott Evans talks to psychologist, researcher, and author,Dr. Zelana Montminy [https://drzelana.com/]. She talks about her book,21 Days to Resilience [https://www.amazon.com/21-Days-Resilience-Transcend-Strongest/dp/0062428772], and how we can break the habits and patterns that no longer serve us and reinforces ourselves in a way that makes us stronger, more compassionate, and more connected. She takes us through three main parts: self, spirit, and social. Reset and restore as you listen to what Dr. Z has to say in this conversation.

Rashaun Williams is Making Millionaires - Part 2

Rashaun Williams is a man who knows how to make it happen. Growing up on the south side of Chicago with a mother on welfare and a father addicted to drugs, he only had one dream early on that he can remember, to make it out of the hood alive. At 13, he witnessed something that he's never gotten over, but it became the motivation to escape his circumstance. The trauma of those days, though, are never too far from his mind. Through therapy, he's found one question that helps him navigate the hard choices in life while making sure his emotions and his connection to something greater all remain in proper balance. The help of a mentor and a book his mother gave him, coupled with his fight to never go back, contributes to his success. He's also got a pretty funny story about applying to a scholarship for black women that screams, “I'm worth the investment.” And it's true. At 23, he is the Morehouse grad who became the youngest VP at Wachovia Bank and would go on to help bring in millions for his clients. Rashaun seems to have a gift for making a dollar out of 15 cents, but he’ll tell you it isn’t magic.
