I was really excited to sit down with our guest today, Dr. Andrea Maxim. She’s an entrepreneur, naturopathic doctor, and unapologetically interested in driving her entrepreneurial spirit and finding ways to have a massive impact on her profession.

In this episode, I was lucky enough to get her take on a few things: the trends she has been seeing within entrepreneurialism, where she thinks we should be investing our time and energy as we move into 2018, and the common elements that she has seen — both in her journey as well as her clients — in terms of successful outcomes.

This is a great interview because it’s that balance between business through the lens of someone who’s in healthcare — who understands the need to have boundaries and limitations in terms of how far we push. We also talk about what it means to really be an overnight success and the 10 years of work it takes to get to that place. This is an interview for people who are interested in understanding how you can become passionate about looking for a career in helping others and the type of hustle and strategy and self-investment that goes along with it.

 

Key Takeaways:

[3:43] Dr. Andrea Maxim takes us through the journey that got her to where she is now.

[7:04] The concept of ‘endgame’: what it means to Dr. Andrea.

[10:39] Where Dr. Andrea’s mindset of “I just know I can do it” came from and how to think optimistically.

[17:31] The importance of failing to achieve success.

[18:59] Detaching yourself from others’ opinions and Dr. Andrea’s obliger tendency with a side of rebel.

[22:20] Straddling the line between healthcare practitioner and hustling entrepreneur: Dr. Andrea’s predictions for key marketing trends for small businesses in 2018.

[26:30] Finding the balance between finding personal touch-points with clients while also limiting your access and taking a step back.

[29:11] Where Dr. Andrea plans on moving forward this coming year, where she plans to invest her time and money in terms of personal growth, and what her best personal investment has been in the past.

[34:01] An important exercise in gaining — and being open to — personal insight.

[36:13] How to filter out the noise of advice and suggestions, to process it and find the one, clear path to take.

[39:36] What Andrea would like her legacy to be.

[40:39] How Andrea describes health.

[42:03] Andrea’s key-performance indicators!

[45:05] Where to find Andrea online.

Dec 19, 2017

Today is a super fun interview because it was all about money — our attitudes towards it and our core beliefs about it. We segued right into the concept of ‘how do you go about spending your money, guilt-free?’

My guest today, Shannon Simmons, the author of Worry-Free Money — which just released today. She also owns The New School of Finance and she runs a series of programs online to teach the notion of financial acumen. As a new mom, she gets the pressures of the millennial, emerging entrepreneurial lifestyle and the shift that we’re seeing in our society — that is we’re moving away from the idea that everything is secure and easy to the fact that we need to have a new idea and paradigm as we approach money.

I can’t have a podcast or a business that focuses on producing healthy outcomes for people if we don’t talk about money — and that’s exactly what we did today and why I’m so excited to share this interview with you, between myself and Shannon Simmons.

Dec 5, 2017

As entrepreneurs, we get caught in the mindset that we can out-work or out-hustle everyone to get to the next level. When we hear that it’s important to focus and be mindful we feel that we are different. We have to hustle.

The reality is that running around like a crazy person, trying to be everything to everyone at all times, ultimately leads to burnout and ineffectiveness. Today I’m sitting down with Dave Ruel to look at the simple things — the operations of a business — to be effective and to stay healthy.

 

Key Takeaways:

[3:30] Dave began his first health business by selling cookbooks.

[6:25] Dave wanted to launch his own business in order to have more freedom, but he became overworked and experienced burnout.

[8:56] How do you know if you are caught in a burnout phase?

[14:38] You don’t have to hustle and grind to be a successful entrepreneur.

[16:29] You may need to go through the “burnout recovery program.”

[21:13] You must learn to manage yourself.

[23:16] This is how Dave structures his day.

[29:43] How can you connect with people without letting email take over your life?

[36:00] What software does Dave use for project management?

[37:57] There are so many options for planners and journals for entrepreneurs. Choose one that helps you prioritize.

[47:04] Take this month’s quiz at Meghanwalker.com/entrepologyquiz.

[47:26] Let’s look at Dave’s key performance indicators!

Today’s episode is super fun. I’m hanging out with Shari Caplan, a traditionally trained medical doctor who has come to embrace functional medicine and the role that adequately balanced hormones play in our lives. She has an incredible clinic in Toronto that integrates medicine, meditation, movement, and all of the things that make us healthy, all under one roof.

In our interview, we get into the nuances of hormones and how hormones influence your neurology, your digestion, your vitality and your capacity to think clearly. We also took a spin on this that is supported by medical literature but is infrequently spoken about, namely the effects of concussions and brain trauma on your hormonal health.

If you know someone who has a traumatic brain injury, have kids that are playing sports, or you yourself have ever bumped your noggin, this is the interview for you.

 

Key Takeaways:

[3:00] Dr. Caplan’s personal hormonal health concerns led her to functional medicine.

[7:26] Dr. Caplan loves treating the root cause and whole person.

[10:29] We tend to dismiss the most important steps to good health. Do we need to change the compensation model to encourage more MDs to incorporate functional medicine?

[15:16] How can traumatic brain injury be related to hormone imbalances?

[22:31] Brain inflammation shuts down the ability to produce hormones.

[26:34] Hormones help with repair and regeneration.

[31:20] What hormone tests should you have done?

[33:07] Conventional medicine overlooks the gut-brain connection.

[36:38] Eat real food. Manage stress. Balance your hormones and replace deficient nutrients.

[39:36] Dr. Caplan’s legacy is to shift people’s health for the better.

[40:15] Health is more than the absence of disease.

[40:40] Take this month’s quiz at Meghanwalker.com/entrepologyquiz.

[41:01] Let’s look at Dr. Kaplan’s key performance indicators!

Have you ever felt like you just need a detox? Like maybe you should stop eating for three days or down a boatload of charcoal or something? People come into my office every day asking for help with detox.

I wanted to bring someone onto the podcast who understands detox. Josh Gitalis understands exposure and deals with the process of detox on a daily basis in his own practice. He has developed a series of online programs to help you identify exposures in your own life. Josh is also a holistic nutritionist and has a background as a trainer.

This is a fantastic interview because we balanced practicality and what you can do on a daily basis with the detox strategies that you can implement several times per year to really cleanse your system.

 

Key Takeaways:

[2:46] When Josh was a personal trainer he realized that many of his clients were only interested in “fitness” and not in true health. He found holistic nutrition at a personal training conference.

[5:47] Toxins will prevent healing.

[8:17] Parents need to be aware of all the sources of toxins that their children can be exposed to very early on in life.

[9:47] What is a detox?

[12:26] Not everyone has the same capacity for natural detoxification.

[14:29] Should we all be doing targeted detoxes?

[15:38] There are things that you can do to support detoxification daily.

[17:29] Emotions can become toxic.

[18:53] We must be drinking good, clean water.

[19:59] Josh can help his clients design a personalized detox protocol.

[25:53] Josh uses activated charcoal for acute situations, not for long term detox.

[28:33] What about juice cleanses?

[30:34] Fasting has many benefits, but you should be intentional about it.

[33:18] Josh believes that some fashionable detox methods are not effective.

[35:31] What time of year should you do a detox?

[36:42] What does Josh want his legacy to be?

If there is one topic that is a taboo pertaining to women’s health, it is our reproductive rights. More specifically, the birth control pill. This is a topic that I have tried to pull guests into in past episodes, but no one quite wants to touch it. Well, there is one person that I knew would be brave enough to go there. Dr. Jolene Brighten’s area of expertise is understanding the hormonal environment of the women she treats and the impacts of their medications, including the birth control pill. Dr. Brighten is a naturopathic doctor that practices on the West Coast of the United States. She has written several books and has made a career of understanding women’s hormonal health. In today’s episode, we talk about the pill, the good and the bad, to give you a balanced and informed approach. We talk about Post Birth Control Syndrome, some of the symptoms you should be watching for if you are on the pill and some natural alternatives if you decide this is not the approach to birth control that you want to take.

 

Key Takeaways:

[3:12] Dr. Jolene was working in DNA technology when she found naturopathy.

[9:00] Dr. Jolene wrote a book about postpartum healing, as well as several others.

[10:56] Women need more healthcare options.

[12:07] Why did Dr. Jolene decide to self-publish her first book, and go through a publisher the next time?

[14:24] Understanding what drives her has been key to Dr. Jolene’s success.

[16:00] The birth control pill has been instrumental in how women have been able to progress in society.

[20:01] The pill has a dark history.

[22:00] What health issues can be caused by the birth control pill?

[29:17] Is it bad if you’ve been on the pill for a long time?

The last time I had a chance to chat with this particular guest we were on a bus on our way to Banff because we sit on a medical advisory committee together. Dr. Leigh Arseneau has the capacity to take any health concept and dig deeper and deeper. We went off on tangents; we found ourselves in holes but the key thing that happened in our conversation today was that we managed to consistently paddle upstream. If you are looking for the answers and the pill that matches the outcome, this is not the interview for you.

Today we went up the stream and around the corner to my favorite place to hang out: we tried to understand why disease develops in the first place. We got into the functional medicine matrix, we talked epigenetics, we looked at molecular and cellular biology, we talked about precision medicine as the future of medicine and we looked at some of the predictive biomarkers that we need to understand in order to predict disease decades before it comes into play. If you are interested in performance and health from a preventative standpoint, this is the interview for you.

 

Key Takeaways:

[3:16] Dr. Arseneau got into functional medicine because it fit a vision that he had.

[5:10] How is functional medicine different from conventional medicine?

[9:29] We must consider immune and inflammatory markers. The gastrointestinal system is central to health.

[12:03] Hormone imbalance is an effect, not a primary cause.

[13:13] Look beyond your diagnosis.

[17:19] To prevent disease, you need to become informed.

[19:16] What are the three most important lifestyle factors you need to be aware of to stay healthy?

[20:40] Multi-tasking is not healthy.

[25:52] The future of healthcare is precision medicine.

[30:04] Prevention medicine is cost-effective.

[30:21] It’s important to ask why it is that right now the focus is kept on treating diseases rather than preventing them.

[30:39] It takes commitment to maintain your health. You must invest in yourself and in your family.

[35:46] Should everyone be on supplements?

[37:49] What does everyone need to upregulate in their systems?

[39:35] Some people will need extra detoxification support.

[40:37] Avoiding electronics at night is beneficial.

[43:21] Dr. Arseneau wants his legacy to be making an impact on humanity through his God-given gifts. He hopes that others will do the same.

[44:55] Health is a state of mind. Health is a choice.

[46:09] Take this month’s quiz at Meghanwalker.com/entrepologyquiz.

[46:31] Let’s look at Dr. Arseneau’s key performance indicators!

This was a very compelling interview because of the story it opened with. James Erdt transitioned from a place of darkness and crime in his youth to a way of living that inspires entrepreneurs and everyone around him to be better. This interview is somewhat like a self-help novel, but most importantly it speaks to the truth that each of us has a story of our own, and our stories enable us to do the work we are meant to do in the world.

 

Key Takeaways:

[6:15] Bullying was influential in James’s decision to use drugs.

[8:09] We are prone to want to abuse power. As parents, we can influence our children to use their power wisely.

[12:37] People love to be listened to.

[16:37] People will pay money to get out of pain.

[19:22] James works with entrepreneurs who pay it forward and know how to treat money with respect.

[24:15] James has started a ranch for at-risk teen boys to help them turn their lives around like he has.

[29:53] Get comfortable being uncomfortable. To succeed, you must be willing to fail.

Today’s interview is with a fellow Naturopathic Doctor, Marie Matheson. Marie practices in Ottawa and the almost exclusive focus of her practice is Lyme disease and associated chronic infections. While you may at first glance think that this doesn’t apply to you, I couldn’t disagree more. You see, at the end of the day, when we back up and try to understand where disease comes from, it usually comes from two sources: infections and exposures. We don’t just talk about Lyme, we talk about this notion of stealth infections, the idea that we gain exposures at times that we don’t even recognize; and those organisms lie dormant in our systems until we are tired, until we go through trauma, until our immune systems can no longer keep them at bay. If you are a citizen of the world, then this interview is for you.

 

Key Takeaways:

[2:35] When Dr. Matheson’s niece was bitten by a tick it made her realize that she didn’t have the adequate knowledge to treat Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses.

[4:40] What is a stealth infection?

[6:13] What is Lyme disease and how does an acute manifestation differ from a chronic manifestation?

[9:20] Other insects besides ticks can carry Lyme, and it can also be sexually transmitted.

[10:55] How can you prevent these infections? Are certain people more susceptible?

[15:40] Dr. Matheson treats a lot of truck drivers. Here’s why.

[16:39] Due to lack of education, there are some controversies about Lyme and its treatment.

[20:47] Naturopathic doctors look at illness holistically. Most conventionally trained doctors won’t do that.

[24:03] How should you test for Lyme?

[26:00] A vaccine for Lyme would not be effective at preventing the illness.

[28:24] What is a spirochete? What is a biofilm?

[30:32] Lyme is a much more imminent threat than Zika.

[32:32] If you feel you have been misdiagnosed or your treatment isn’t working, you should consider that you may be dealing with Lyme.

[36:39] Treatment for acute Lyme is totally different than that for chronic Lyme.

[40:43] Prevention is the best cure for Lyme.

[42:34] How should you remove a tick?

[45:00] Health is physical, emotional, and spiritual balance.

[47:33] Dr. Matheson wants her legacy to be that she helped to reduce suffering from chronic illness.

Dr. Matheson believes in preventative medicine and the importance of determining the causal chain of illness by addressing toxicities at a cellular level. Using her assessment tool of Auricular Medicine, Dr. Matheson uncovers blockages and underlying imbalances that have created symptoms, to allow the body to self-heal and auto-regulate.

Today’s guest is someone I met at the gym, at a conference for health entrepreneurs. I had the fortunate experience of running into Dr. Vincent Pedre there at the gym and then later that day at a cocktail party, where we struck up a fascinating conversation about his transition from practicing internal medicine to practicing functional medicine, and how he healed his own digestive issues.

 

In today’s conversation, we go from discussing disease and the influence of the gut on chronic disease and autoimmune conditions, to discussing performance, the brain health axis, and the way that the health of our gut influences our ability to think clearly and execute profoundly every single day. This interview is not just relevant for people with digestive issues, it is relevant for anyone who is on a mission and wants to know where to start to improve their performance.

 

Key Takeaways:

[3:23] Dr. Pedre realized that he couldn’t offer his patients an exit strategy from the treatments he was giving them, and that drove him to functional medicine.

[6:19] Dr. Pedre realized that he could resolve his own IBS.

[9:21] Dr. Pedre mostly practices functional medicine, but he still performs screenings and recognizes his background in conventional medicine.

[10:34] This is where you can hear it from an MD: The food you eat affects your health, “100 percent!”

[13:18] Should everyone quit eating dairy and gluten?

[15:48] Changing your diet can be overwhelming, but you can do it. Find a doctor who empowers you.

[20:17] How are autoimmune conditions related to gut health?

[25:31] If you have elevated thyroid antibodies but still have normal thyroid function, you can prevent disease with lifestyle.

[28:22] How do you assess gut health? You might have gut issues and not know it.

[35:15] We think with our gut.

[39:27] Our current society is completely imbalanced.

[42:24] It’s important to learn to manage stress and cultivate supportive relationships.

[45:39] What does a healthy gut like to eat?

[48:23] Health is having the energy and the drive to do the things that you love.

A few weeks ago I was speaking at an event called Mind Body Reset, and one of the speakers that came before me was Sylvie Tetrault. Sylvie is a holistic nutritionist, a trainer, and the host of the Championship Lifestyle Podcast. The focus of Sylvie’s career is getting all of us to execute as high performers. Sylvie shared so much great wisdom that I approached her after the event and asked her to come on the podcast and talk to my audience.

Today I had the pleasure of sitting down with her and we covered all sorts of elements but most importantly we talked about how to go from that place where we’re sort of floundering with what we eat and how we exercise, to the types of strategies we should implement in order to get a plan in place. Whether you’ve been wanting to get going or you already have a program and want to take it to the next level, this conversation is for you.

 

Key Takeaways:

[2:56] Sylvie became interested in strength training after she realized that she couldn’t do a pull-up. She has now had the opportunity to train a lot of high performers.

[6:42] What does an appropriate recovery time look like?

[15:03] You can learn to make healthy recipes, and it doesn’t have to take a long time. Eating well needs to be a priority.

[16:35] Eating right will help you in all areas of your life.

[17:35] Start by increasing your movement rather than adopting an “exercise plan.”

[23:01] What’s the right way to do cardio?

[26:25] What elements will the best exercise plan incorporate?

[31:42] Sometimes you have to think outside the box to find the right solution for your health.

[33:45] How can you find a good trainer?

[37:00] Sylvie focuses on helping people find their individual path to wellness.

[37:36] Health is knowing your body and its needs.

On Friday I gave a talk at Mind Body Reset entitled “What Diabetes and Hurricanes Have in Common.” This episode, based on that talk, is a call to action for all of you. I can’t think of a better audience to speak to on this topic because those of you who are listening are the doers of this world. You’re not people who are okay or satisfied with fine, and you are people who are willing to pick up a call to action and do something. We need to do something good for this world. I honestly believe that when people are well, they can change the world. I do what I do because I know that if teachers and parents and CEOs and entrepreneurs are strong and healthy, then they can invoke change in their communities with their ideas, inspiration, and actions.

 

In the next few minutes, I’m going to tell you what diabetes and hurricanes have in common, and what you can do to move the needle on one of the most important issues we are facing as a collective group of people.

 

Key Takeaways:

[1:39] This episode is a call to action.

[3:47] Mother Nature is angry.

[4:56] Diabetes takes years to develop, and we must take deliberate action.

[7:23] Nature is beginning to buckle under the pressure we are applying against it.

[7:58] So what do hurricanes and diabetes have in common?

[8:24] People use sugar for a rapid energy boost.

[12:28] Sugar is particularly problematic if a system is already challenged.

[13:39] If you abuse your body, your cells may stop listening.

[16:42] Most pre-diabetic people think they are fine.

[18:06] Drugs to lower cholesterol complicate blood sugar problems.

[19:55] Right now is the prime time for a change, for our health and the health of the planet.

Today’s interview was a real pleasure for me. I had the opportunity to interview someone that I both admire and consider a friend, Lori Kennedy. Lori is a holistic nutritionist by background and has gone on to build an online business where she teaches other practitioners how to scale their impact and their message in the online space.

 

What’s remarkable to me is not necessarily the business that Lori has built, but the life she has built. Far too often we sit back and envy what other people have, but Lori has gone out and built her life on purpose.

 

Today’s podcast is all about how to do that for yourself, and how you can give yourself permission to take your life and your purpose to the next level.

 

Key Takeaways:

[3:12] Lori is a writer and an empowerer of women.

[5:10] As an entrepreneur, you do the hardest work on yourself.

[7:29] How can you own and harness the power of traits that others might see as negative?

[11:26] Societal expectations can hold women back.

[17:00] Think about how you want to feel rather than what you want to do.

[22:25] Delegation can be your secret weapon.

[25:25] People are going to judge you no matter what, so you might as well live the life you want to live.

[27:23] Entrepreneurs need continuous momentum.

[30:44] What is the first step in scaling your wellness business?

[34:31] School is not always conducive to creative and entrepreneurial children.

[37:49] Lori is already living out her legacy.

[39:20] Health is consistency.

Sep 19, 2017

Today I sat down with a friend and colleague, Dr. John Dempster, ND. Over the last several years, Dr. Dempster has developed a real passion for addressing mental health, both within his patient population and in the broader entrepreneurial world through some of his online summits.

 

We got into some of the things that we both feel are missing in the lives of our patients that set them up to be more at risk for inability to manage anxiety and depression on a daily basis. John goes on to talk more about how he evaluates new patients that come into his practice looking to find more stability in respect to their mental health. What we discovered as we delved deeper into our conversation is that there are significant and consistent tenets that actually set up for success when it comes to our mental health, and there are certain habits and social norms that tend to pull us down.

 

This interview was insightful because it was personal. There’s not a single person listening who isn’t touched by mental health problems through their patients, clients, friends or family. This is something that we can all relate to and information that we can all use.

 

 

Key Takeaways:

[3:24] Dr. Dempster lost two of his uncles to chronic disease when he was very young and watching them go through conventional treatments that failed really affected him.

[4:47] Dr. Dempster realized the importance of nutrition and root cause resolution.

[6:36] What is functional medicine and how does it differ from naturopathic medicine?

[7:55] How did Dr. Dempster become passionate about mental health?

[11:42] Almost a quarter of Dr. Meghan’s patients are on antidepressants.

[13:47] Mental health is related to gut health.

[16:02] Healing doesn’t happen instantly. We need to reevaluate our environments and relationships.

[17:46] Dr. Dempster’s priorities shifted when he became a parent.

[21:02] How does Dr. Dempster manage anxiety?

[24:40] How does busyness contribute to adrenal fatigue?

[28:14] Naturopathic physicians have more tools at their disposal than MDs.

[31:05] A sense of community is really important to health.

[32:21] We need “Vitamin N.”

[33:23] Dr. Dempster hopes that he will be known as someone who really cared and who listened to his patients.

[34:28] What is health?

Alex Charfen first became an entrepreneur during his teenage years and learned some very important lessons about business through early failures. At his peak of his financial success, he found himself incredibly unhealthy and stressed out. Understanding he needed to change, he created a wildly successful real estate business with his wife and began living life on his own terms.

 

Finally, when Alex was ready to sit down and write his own book to help entrepreneurs, he had to take a step back and ask himself, who exactly, is an entrepreneur? What makes someone want to even become an entrepreneur? This is how his book, Entrepreneurial Personality Type, came to be. He realized through all the years of working with entrepreneurs and wildly successful business people, they all had one thing in common. They were outliers. They were risk takers, and society thought they were just strange.

 

On this week’s episode, Alex discusses his book, why entrepreneurs are wired differently, and their beneficial purpose to society, and how entrepreneurs can use this knowledge to prosper in their own professional and personal lives.

 

Key Takeaways:

[2:25] Alex has spent his career trying to figure out what makes entrepreneurs tick and, through that, he’s found that there are key entrepreneurial personality types that make us who we are.

[3:20] How did Alex first get started as an entrepreneur?

[6:15] When you read books about successful people, there are very clear distinct patterns for why these people became successful.

[9:55] Life sometimes throws you curveballs. At 22 years old, Alex became a fortune 500 consultant.

[11:25] At 32 years old, Alex was unhealthy and he had to make a shift in his lifestyle. He ended up opening a real estate  business with his wife.

[13:00] One day, Alex decided to sit down and write a book about all the things he’s learned about business over the years, but when he sat down to write his target audience, aka entrepreneurs, he couldn’t figure out who they really were. This shocked him. He’s worked with entrepreneurs and highly successful people all his life, how could he not know who they were?

[14:30] So, instead of writing about the book he had initially intended to, he wrote Entrepreneurial Personality Type.

[17:00] What is the Entrepreneurial Personality Type book about?

[18:00] Personality type one: The Caretakers.

[19:20] Personality type two: The Communicator.

[20:35] Personality type three: The Coordinators.

[22:35] Personality type four: The Hunters.

[23:55] The hunter group is the smallest group out of those four. The hunters are entrepreneurs. They are the trendsetters, but they’re also seen as intimidating and scary.

[27:25] What kinds of differences has Alex noticed between male and female entrepreneurs?

[38:45] Alex mentioned at the height of his financial success, he was at his unhealthiest. What has his health journey been like over the years?

[42:05] If you’re not optimizing yourself, then you’re not optimizing your business.

[46:25] What does Alex want his legacy to be?

[50:10] Take this month’s quiz at meghanwalker.com/entrepologyquiz.

[50:50] Let’s look at Alex’s key performance indicators!

“We are the smallest part of the human species. The Hunters make up the smallest group, and the rest of the world simply doesn’t understand us.”

 

“They call us risk takers, intimidating, frightening, and scary. We do things that just don’t make sense and are illogical.”

 

“We’re fundamentally different from the rest of the world. We get up everyday and demand that the world improve.”

 

 

MORE ABOUT ALEX CHARFEN

 

Alex has studied greatness for decades and here is what he has found: All of the notable entrepreneurs down through history have a great deal in common with each other, and, quite frankly, very little in common with the rest of the world. They share The Entrepreneurial Personality Type (EPT) with all of its quirks and idiosyncrasies. They are a restless bunch with an intrinsic need to move and build and strive. His own remarkable entrepreneurial journey reflects that.

 

His professional career started at the tender age of eight. Economic factors forced the emergency sale of his family’s business, making it necessary for him to start working, selling things with his dad at a local flea market. He quickly found that, unlike the rest of the world he lived in, the business environment felt safe. He innately understood it. The exchange of money for goods and services made sense. He grew and continued to learn about commerce, reading voraciously about the great business minds down through the ages. In his teen years, he began to launch and build businesses of his own, sometimes failing and sometimes wildly succeeding. His high flying Florida real estate business became a victim of the 2008 downturn, but he rebounded by turning that tragedy into a thriving business built around helping others in real estate understand the world of distressed properties, of which there were many at the time. For that, homeowners and real estate experts are eternally grateful. In fact the U.S. Treasury Office has data that shows that Alex’s CDPE process shortened the recovery of the foreclosure crisis in this country by at least five years. 

 

Now, Alex has turned his attention and resources to what is without a doubt the most important work he believes he will ever do- helping other EPT’s prosper and understand themselves so they can make the difference that they are intended to make. His book, The Entrepreneurial Personality Type, published in 2016, has become the handbook for his restless tribe around the world looking for answers. He has obviously struck a resonant chord with his findings and his continued learning and discoveries on the subject. He’s spoken on the biggest stages, appeared on TV and in print for major media outlets such as MSNBC, CNBC, FOX News, The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Investor’s Business Daily and AmEx OPEN Forum to provide his unique views and insights. His next book, Momentum, will publish in early 2018.

In today’s show, I’m switching things up a bit, and I do not have a guest to interview! Between every 10-15 guests, we’ll take a mini break from that format, and go into a solo show. So, today’s solo show is about achieving balance in your life, especially as we transition from summer into the fall.

 

I was watching my daughter ride her bike without training wheels the other day, and some inspiration came to how riding a bicycle is the perfect metaphor for living our real life. Oftentimes, when we are stressed, we think taking a screeching halt, and putting everything on pause is what will give us balance, but this is wrong!

 

As anybody who has ever ridden a bike knows, the slower you go on a bike, the more dangerous things become. In order for us to properly achieve balance, we need to learn how to coast on our bicycle, and ride on the momentum of our hard work. Find out more about achieving balance on this week’s episode!

 

Key Takeaways:

[1:35] I don’t have a guest for this week’s episode! Let’s take a mini break to reflect as we transition from summer into fall.

[2:05] How do you achieve balance when the seasons change and get busier?

[3:40] Have questions for me? Don’t forget to join our Facebook community, Legacy, and reach out there!

[4:00] If you enjoyed our conversation and would like to hear more, please subscribe to The Entrepology Podcast on Stitcher or iTunes. We would also appreciate a review.

[5:00] We all strive for balance in our lives. We’re searching for it every single day.

[6:00] We try to come to a screeching halt when striving for balance, but for anyone who has ever ridden a bike, they will know that the slower you go on a bike, the more dangerous it becomes for you.

[7:05] Following the riding-the-bike metaphor, instead of trying to stop suddenly, look for opportunities in your daily live to coast; ride the momentum of your hard work.

[7:35] How can we actively, and consciously, engage in a break?

[9:25] You don’t need a ten-minute break every hour, you need a minute, or even 30 seconds, to step away from your work and recharge.

[10:00] Do you experience energy crashes in the afternoon? Getting sugar or a coffee into your system is not the answer.

[11:35] Don’t have time to go to the gym? Lack of movement is another factor as to why you are struggling to achieve balance.

[12:45] Adults typically don’t play anymore, but just because you’re no longer a child, and have bills to pay, this doesn’t mean you aren’t allowed to have fun. Try and incorporate more play time into your life.

[15:55] Join the Facebook community and let us know how you want to increase more of your play time this fall.

[17:35] We have a fantastic list of guests lined up for the fall, and they will be talking about how you can have more play in your life.

In today’s show I got to have a really cool conversation. We talked about something that everyone thinks about, but no one really wants to talk about, and that is money. Money is an issue, and whether we like it or not, we all hold beliefs around money. Some of us believe that money is a bad thing, that it is evil. Others have evolved to a place where they allow money to flow into their lives freely and easily. We hear about these people; they are like myths, like mermaids. It’s rare to get to sit down with one and really understand what that mindset looks like in real life, but that’s what I did today.

 

Today I sat down with David Binns. David is a real estate agent by background and training, and a contributor to the self-improvement movement. We looked at the concept of money mindset, and learned how to transition our way of thinking to allowing money to flow toward us. The conversation was insightful. It gave me goosebumps throughout, and it was really foundational to addressing a concept that I believe is important to everybody’s health; financial freedom. This conversation is a gateway to the liberation that comes from looking at money in a whole new way.

 

Key Takeaways:

[:40] Please join our Facebook community, Legacy, a group of bad-ass women collectively committed to leaving the world better than we found it.

[3:58] David grew up in a lower class family in an affluent town, and his self-improvement journey began when he saw Tony Robbins on TV.

[7:05] David recognized that he was no different than a wealthy person, and that he could achieve financial freedom.

[8:50] Money is not mechanical.

[12:09] Where should you start if you know you have a limiting view of money?

[13:34] How do you stay in a place of abundance?

[16:20] Trust is not entitlement.

[17:13] We acquire much of our money mindset in our family of origin.

[18:45] David is unwilling to give up on what’s possible.

[21:03] Is money a problem to be solved?

[22:57] Be specific about what you’re asking for.

[23:45] Invest in yourself.

[25:05] David examines his health and the impact he wants to have on the world.

[26:28] Most people don’t know what their purpose is, or they don’t know that they know.

[29:24] Your purpose will evolve.

[29:53] David’s purpose is to be a leader and a contrarian.

[30:54] What does David want his legacy to be?

[32:43] Health is having your mind, heart, and body reflect how you want to experience life.

Today I sat down with Samantha Gladish. Samantha is a nutritionist by background, health crusader and a renowned online entrepreneur. While I thought we were actually going to talk about health, where we went with this conversation was really getting to know the fundamentals that entrepreneurs require to be effective in this world. We broke through some of the commonly-held beliefs that hold people back in terms of being able to achieve what they want to achieve, and then we got into health from an unexpected angle, where we started to explore the connection between hormones, the birth control pill, and their collective incapacity to enable us to be our best selves.

 

Key Takeaways:

[:42] Please join our Facebook community, Legacy, a group of bad-ass women collectively committed to leaving the world better than we found it.

[17:04] How did Samantha get clarity and define her goals?

[20:44] You have to have skin in the game.

[23:12] It can be difficult to charge what you’re worth.

[26:06] Because of her own health issues, Samantha became passionate about hormonal health.

[31:53] Just last year Samantha found out that she has Hashimoto’s.

[34:52] The birth control pill stops your own hormones from working, and can lead to PCOS and insulin resistance.

[43:15] Health is living with joy.

[43:40] Thank you to our sponsor, The Interpreting Your Genetics Summit.

[44:55] Samantha’s morning routine includes affirmations and drinking water and tea or coffee.

[46:29] Samantha reads both fiction and nonfiction.

[46:52] Samantha’s hot beverage of choice is mushroom coffee with collagen.

[48:22] Samantha loves dancing, being outside, kayaking, and reading.

Today I sat down with Heather Allen. Heather is a nutritionist, an entrepreneur, and all around community builder. She’s a queen on Instagram and someone you absolutely have to know. Heather has a love affair with food, and has an innate capacity to take complicated concepts and turn them into something simple that you can easily cook up in your own kitchen. We talked about fermented food, building community, and the concept of “hangry,” and the blood sugar balancing that we all need to do to be able to optimize ourselves on our daily mission. This is a practical talk about how to put things into action, and how to take your body and your physiology to the next level, with the decisions that you make day in and day out, each time you make the choice to eat another meal. You’re gonna love it!

 

Key Takeaways:

[4:12] Heather realized that when she had travelled in Southeast Asia she felt great, because of the food that she was eating.

[7:54] Why does it take so long to make the connection between food and health?

[9:23] Our society has conditioned us to prefer to take medication rather than change our lifestyle.

[9:58] How does food affect our mood?

[12:24] How can you avoid becoming “hangry”?

[13:19] Fasting can make our cells more resilient.

[15:40] What are the signs of poor blood sugar management?

[17:43] Stress management is more than just managing your to do list.

[18:53] How can you maintain your energy through the afternoon?

[22:07] Protein and fat are important for balancing blood sugar.

[25:39] There are lots of healthy options for vegetarians.

Today’s interview was really interesting for me. I sat down with Mike Mutzel, the author of Belly Fat Effect. He’s also the host of High Intensity Health, a practitioner, and someone who has immersed himself in this field since he was a teenager. We talked about a lot of things, but mostly we dove deep into the concept of the ketogenic diet. This is actually a concept that, previous to this interview, I wasn’t particularly familiar with. I was used to talking about ketosis from a medical standpoint, but the ins and outs of actually doing the “ketogenic diet” was not something I was familiar with, or something I used with my patients. But now, I might.

 

Key Takeaways:

[:45] Please join our Facebook community, Legacy, a group of bad-ass women collectively committed to leaving the world better than we found it.

[2:57] How did Mike become passionate about health and the ketogenic diet?

[5:32] The toolbox of the average MD is very limited.

[7:35] Choose a healthy alternative to alcohol or other comfort substances.

[9:53] Seasonal eating and circadian rhythms are crucial.

[16:47] What exactly is a ketogenic diet?

[22:33] Dietary supplements can help you in your journey into ketosis.

[24:36] Some people are not ready to go into ketosis.

[27:58] Is ketosis harder for women?

[29:07] You should know why you want to adopt a ketogenic diet.

[31:01] Most women are estrogen dominant.

[32:24] You may not have to change what you eat to enter ketosis.

[33:03] Can you have alcohol on a ketogenic diet?

[35:16] Diversity of vegetable matter is good for your microbiome.

[39:46] Who has Mike learned the most from?

[42:56] Vitality and energy equal health.

[43:49] Thank you to our sponsor, The Interpreting Your Genetics Summit.

[45:08] Mike journals and meditates every morning.

[46:40] Mike likes fiction but always ends up reading nonfiction.

[48:17] Mike is very consistent about exercise.

[49:17] Mike plays the guitar and loves to travel and hike.

[49:36] Are we born this way, or do we learn to become entrepreneurs?

Today I’m joined by Dr. Kristy Prouse. Dr. Prouse is an OBGYN who has gone on to discover the world of functional medicine. Dr. Prouse is an associate professor at the University of Toronto and is the founder and chief medical officer at the Institute for Hormonal Health. She has walked the full spectrum of medical experience, and she has landed at a place where she is able to address people’s health through a lens of hormonal balance, with so many tools in front of her. We had a really enlightening conversation about how we assess and treat hormones, the pressures that cause these things to run amuck, and ways that we can go about controlling them without applying the birth control pill as a universal tool. It was a really fascinating conversation because we were able to have it from a perspective that gave us access to multiple ways of thinking about our hormones and our bodies, and ultimately their effects on our brains and our performance out there in the real world. It was an enlightening conversation for me personally, and I know it’s going to be fascinating to all of you.

 

Key Takeaways:

[:43] Please join our Facebook community, Legacy, a group of bad-ass women collectively committed to leaving the world better than we found it.

[2:48] Dr. Prouse’s own health crisis brought her into the world of functional medicine.

[5:25] How did Dr. Prouse’s colleagues react to her new paradigm?

[8:00] Many patients know that they aren’t okay, even though their blood work looks normal.

[9:29] Many undiagnosed health issues can be tracked back to stress and adrenal fatigue.

[9:55] What is cortisol dysregulation?

[11:57] Preventing adrenal fatigue is about connecting mind, body, and spirit.

[14:32] Even if you believe you are good at managing stress, you may be taking on too much.

[15:46] How is adrenal fatigue related to estrogen dominance?

[18:09] Stress and environmental toxins can both throw off our hormones.

Today I sat down with James Maskell. James is an entrepreneur in the functional medicine space. Over ten years ago he started his career as an i-banker and realized that wasn’t the ladder he wanted to climb. He transitioned from that career on Wall Street to selling homeopathic products to doctors. He had a natural ability to navigate a landscape and spot problems as they arose. A natural entrepreneur, James has gone on to speak on platforms such as TedMed and TEDx, and is now the host of the Functional Forum, where he speaks with practitioners and experts around the world, discussing the evolution of medicine. Upcoming is his Genetics Summit where we will look at genomics and start to understand how our genetic blueprint interacts with our lives to optimize our health. If something interesting is happening in the world of progressive medicine, James is either behind it or attending. We had an incredible conversation about how to recognize our own skills as entrepreneurs, how we can live to 100, and the types of steps that we can take on a daily basis to optimize our genetics. This is a perfect conversation for anyone looking to take their health and their entrepreneurial vision to the next level.

At the end of each of my podcasts I ask my guest this question: “Entrepreneurism, are we born this way, or do we learn to become entrepreneurs?” Never has this question been as loaded as it was for my guest today. Dr. Mansoor Mohammed is a clinical geneticist, and we discussed the correlation and connection between our genetic makeup, our DNA, and our potential and capacity for optimization. We weren’t looking at genetics from the perspective of markers for disease, but rather we went deep into the types of things we need to look for and understand if we’re going to analyze our genetics and use it to make us effective in the world. We looked at ways that genetics can be used to optimize our nutrition, we touched briefly on risk factors and then we got into the personality traits that we can actually look for in terms of markers, and that we can cultivate and leverage to make ourselves more effective on our mission to make this world a better place. This was a fascinating interview because it’s universally aligned to everybody. We all are made up of all of these genes. We each have this DNA imprint that sets the tone and the blueprint for who we become in this world. There is something for everyone to learn in this interview.

Key Takeaways:
[:46] Please join our Facebook community, Legacy, a group of bad-ass women collectively committed to leaving the world better than we found it.
[3:22] Dr. Mohammed has always been fascinated by chromosomes.
[5:21] What are functional genetic tests, and what information can we expect to get from them?
[9:27] Is genetic testing really valuable, or will a healthy lifestyle suffice?
[17:54] Genetic testing can help us mitigate the dangers of statistics.
[21:53] Genetic testing should give us information about genetic pathways as opposed to individual genes.
[27:43] Single gene tests can not paint the entire picture, and both the public and medical professionals need to be more educated about this.
[35:50] We are getting important insight into personality through genetic testing.
[43:09] What percent of our experiences and our presentation in the world is genetic and what percent is environmental?
[47:48] What are the privacy laws concerning genetic testing?
[52:50] Health is living up to your optimal potential and desire.
[53:48] Take this month’s quiz about sleep at meghanwalker.com/entrepologyquiz.
[54:32] Dr. Mohammed gets up every morning at 4:00.
[55:03] Dr. Mohammed enjoys reading fiction.
[55:31] Dr. Mohammed loves organic, raw cacao in almond milk sweetened with honey.
[56:04] Dr. Mohammed cherishes his time with his wife and children.
[56:53] Some people are born to be entrepreneurs, however many people can learn to be an entrepreneur when they find something they are passionate about.

“We can absolutely improve our chances of living an optimal life through the lenses of genetic information.”

" Why are we only looking at genetics in a disease centric way? There is so much more to genetics beyond the simply likelihood of disease."

“Intelligent genetic testing is not about testing a list of genes and trying to draw conclusions from them.”

“We are a beautiful collection of genes working as an orchestral masterpiece.”

MORE ABOUT DR. MANSOOR MOHAMMED

Dr. Mohammed is the Founder and President of ManaGene, considered one of the most innovative leaders in the emerging personalized medicine and lifestyle genomics space.

In 2017, ManaGene partnered with Dr. Bryce Wylde and other industry leaders to launch YouTrients (www.youtrients.me), a company revolutionizing the nutraceutical industry by being the first to utilize genomic testing to create customized, individualized supplements and vitamins.

Dr. Mohammed is widely regarded as a pioneer in medical genomics and has been the recipient of multiple academic and industry awards. He is the holder of several patents in the general fields of molecular diagnostics and genomics research, and is one of the most sought-after national and international conference speakers in the genre of personalized medical genomics.
While completing his clinical post-doctoral internship at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), Dr. Mohammed was credited with discovering one of two genomic pathways that define drug resistance to the Novartis-developed leukemia therapy, Gleevec, and co-published these findings in the journal Science (2001) with the renowned oncologist Dr. Charles Sawyers. That same year, he was the co-author of the American Society of Human Genetics’ Paper of the Year Award with his mentor, Dr. Eric Vilain, for their discovery of the role of the Wnt4 gene in sex-reversal. These early studies helped to define Dr. Mohammed as one of the few genomic specialists with core competencies in both the genomic characteristics of childhood development, as well as the genomic etiology of oncology/cancer.
Concomitant with his postdoctoral fellowship at Baylor College of Medicine (2001), Dr. Mohammed was instrumental in the development and commercialization of the industry’s first available comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) arrays. He has since been widely regarded as one of the primary innovators in the diagnostic application of genomic microarrays and has contributed to seminal studies in that field. He was the co-primary author of the first peer-reviewed study utilizing microarray CGH techniques in the clinical diagnosis of developmental abnormalities (2002) and later (2008) was the senior author of the first peer-reviewed study utilizing microarray CGH techniques for clinical oncology purposes. The CGH technologies that Dr. Mohammed helped to develop and commercialize have continued to revolutionize the understanding of the human genome and have spawned thousands of peer-reviewed papers across the international academic community. Considered by Dr. Mohammed as one of the early highlights of his career, and in recognition of his contributions to developing genomic microarray technologies, he was invited as a plenary speaker to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the discovery of the DNA double helix at the world Human Genome Organization meeting (Cancun, Mexico 2003).
Dr. Mohammed was a founder (2001) and Director of Research and Development at Spectral Genomics Inc. Under Dr. Mohammed’s scientific stewardship, Spectral Genomics quickly grew from a start-up funded by Baylor College of Medicine, to an authority in the emerging field of medical comparative genomics and was eventually acquired by PerkinElmer Inc.
With the acquisition of Spectral Genomics, Dr. Mohammed was invited to head the (then) newly established Advanced Technologies Department at North America’s largest diagnostics reference laboratory, Quest Diagnostics Inc. (2003-2006). Overseeing a state of the art facility at Quest, he was responsible for designing the roadmap and executing the adoption of new diagnostic technologies for this Fortune 500 Company (Market Capitalization exceeding 8 billion US). Within his first year at Quest, Dr. Mohammed was honored with the Patent Innovation Award for prolific innovations and discoveries and notably during his tenure was the youngest recipient of the Medical Innovation Award: Quest’s highest and most prestigious employee recognition award.
In 2006, Dr. Mohammed was recruited to co-found and lead the development of Combimatrix Molecular Diagnostics (CMDX). He served as the latter’s Chief Scientific Officer, Chief Operating Officer and for his last 4 years of tenure, as Chief Executive Officer. Under his leadership, CMDX became the first diagnostic company offering genomic microarray-based diagnostics to receive an official “freedom to operate” clearance by the FDA. Moreover, under his guidance, CMDX developed and launched the most comprehensive portfolio of clinically validated genomics based tests in the industry and witnessed 9 consecutive quarters of financial growth with its stock price growing from ~$4/share to over $16/share (Nasdaq).
After a decade of intense professional growth, and with an extensive network of academic, clinical and industrial colleagues, Dr. Mohammed left CMDX in October 2010 to pursue the launch of his own firm, ManaGene Inc. ManaGene is focused on providing best-in-class consulting services to the personalized medicine and genomic diagnostic service sectors. It capitalizes on Dr. Mohammed’s unique breadth and depth of experience to help companies and clinics navigate through the complex ecosystem characteristic of personalized medicine and diagnostics ventures. ManaGeneD counts as its clients, medical clinics, diagnostic companies and research institutes in the US, Canada, Europe, Asia and the Middle East.

Dr. Mohammed has served on the Canadian Board of Autistic Research and is a consultant to the world-renowned Toronto Center of Applied Genomics. He has had the honor of being the personal guest of the former Premiere of Ontario, the Honorable Dalton McGuinty, and on several occasions, the guest of the Canadian Consulate of California. He has also sat on several think tank panels, including ones from the FDA and National Institute of Health (NIH) and is a frequent academic lecturer on the role of genomics in medicine.
