Erwin Valencia is a friend whom I met through my husband, Rory. Erwin, or E, as some people call him, is a fascinating guy whose skill set and knowledge span across multiple industries. He’s the world-renowned physical therapist with the New York Knicks, an athletic trainer, strength and conditioning specialist, and healer of the body. He is also a life coach, speaker, social entrepreneur, and mindfulness coach----and this is the abridged version of the list! Erwin is passionate about living life with purpose, being of service to others, and has truly blazed his own path. 

Raised and educated in the Philippines, Erwin is the first Filipino to be on the medical staff for both the NBA and MLB. Prior to joining the Knicks, he was the rehab director for the Pittsburgh Pirates for 8 seasons. He runs a global educational social enterprise called Kinetiq, and is the founder of the Philippine-based charity, the Beyond Medyo Foundation, which promotes a mindful movement lifestyle. You’re probably wondering like I am--How in the world does he do it ALL? We are determined to find out! In light of the many roles I play, I’m very curious about how others balance multiple endeavors, and Erwin offers great insights on the matter of balance and prioritizing life. Erwin carries a zest for life and an eagerness that is contagious. I think you guys are going to LOVE him!

Hey guys - Welcome to Episode 20 of The Daily Cordial!
 
Today we are talking to, the ultimate champion of the underdog, Reverend Greg Boyle.
 
Father Boyle is a pastor, activist & renowned speaker. He is also the founder and executive director of Homeboy Industries in Los Angeles, which is the largest gang intervention, rehabilitation and re-entry program in the world. 
 
His list of accolades goes on and on but to name a few…He is the author of the New York Times-bestselling book - Tattoos on the Heart: The Power of Boundless Compassion, which was named one of the Best Books of 2010 by Publishers Weekly. He was the subject of Academy Award winner Freida Lee Mock’s documentary, G-Dog.  He received the California Peace Prize and was inducted into the California Hall of Fame. In 2014, the White House named Father Boyle a Champion of Change and in 2016 he received the Humanitarian of the Year Award from the James Beard Foundation, and this is just to name a few! 
 
I was first exposed to Father Boyle through my friends Andrew & Lydia… who highly recommended his book “Tattoos on the Heart” which is a series of parables from his two decades working with gang members in LA. I read it and knew immediately I needed to find a way to talk to this guy… his message, his journey and his stories were SO inspirational and talking to him was no different.. 
 
But before we get to our talk… first a little background on how “Homeboy Industries” came to be…
 
In 1986 Father Boyle was appointed pastor of Dolores Mission Church in LA, which at the time was the poorest Catholic parish in the city located between two large public housing projects with the highest concentration of gang activity in Los Angeles. 
 
After having buried an ever growing number of young people killed in gang violence, Father Boyle wanted to address the unmet needs of gang-involved youth by developing positive opportunities for them.
 
In 1992 Father Boyle launched Homeboy Bakery, and ever since, former enemy gang members have worked side by side, learning both business and baking skills together. The success of Homeboy Bakery created the groundwork for a variety of other similar social enterprises under Homeboy Industries. 
 
Each year over 10,000 former gang members from across Los Angeles come through Homeboy Industries’ doors in an effort to make a positive change. Homeboy Industries offers education, therapy, tattoo removal, substance abuse treatment, legal assistance, and job placement services.
 
Father Boyle is a man who has dedicated his life to helping those in need and more than that he seeks to help people whom most of society has given up on. 
 
In a recent open letter he wrote - “Homeboy Industries seeks to be what the world is ultimately invited to become: a community of kinship, exquisite mutuality, and tenderness. We stand against forgetting that we belong to each other.”
 
And I think THIS is a message we all need to be reminded of right now. We belong to each other.
 
In today’s episode we talk about the power of unconditional love, compassion and kinship. And his belief that every human is inherently good. 
 
He tells us:
  • what he believes we are all longing for
  • what’s more powerful than death
  • advice for those grieving
  • what he believes to be the meaning of life
  • and much much more…
 
If you’re a parent or you’re in a service profession where you’re trying to help others I think this will be a really valuable episode for you. Actually I think if you’re a human being than this episode applies to you.  :) 
 
Enjoy the show!

Throughout Alexia’s career she has gotten to conspire with some of the greatest minds of our time. She worked closely with Richard Branson for over a decade in her 13 year career at Virgin.Then in 2009 she branched out on her own and founded Alexia & Suns, which is a high-level events company that delivers unique, unimaginable experiences. For example she did the weddings for two of Richard Branson’s children. No big deal. And then, my favorite, she collaborated with a group called “The Elders.”
~
 
(So a side note here: The Elders are an Independent group of global leaders working together for peace and human rights, brought together in 2007 by Nelson Mandela, Richard Branson and Peter Gabriel. Members have included President Carter and Desmond Tutu amongst others. And I hadn’t heard about The Elders before and I think at this particular moment in history this type of collaboration is not only incredible but VITAL… so I just wanted to bring awareness to it.)
~
 
So anway… Back to Alexia …Then at the beginning of 2015 Alexia decided to take a break from work to just “be.”  I. love. this. 
~
 
She felt a change brewing and wanted to re-evaluate the direction she wanted her life to go. Alexia embarked on a regimen of healthy eating, meditating and exercising, she surrounded herself with people that inspired her and took more time to do the things she loves. 
~
 
From this space of stillness and clarity her latest venture -SPACE- was born. SPACE is an unbelievable retreat, designed to help you reconnect with the best version of yourself. So, basically my dream vacation. 
~
 
In today’s episode we discuss:
 
-The greatest lesson she learned working with Richard Branson
-Why she asked Virgin to let her go during a recession 
-How she deals with Fear 
-The importance of surrender
-How we can create more space in our life
-And much much more….
~
 
Alexia is an amazing example of someone who follows her heart and calling.. I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of this conversation and I know you guys will too! Namaste!

In her critically acclaimed book, Life by the Cup, Zhena chronicles her journey from - being a single mom with $6 to her name - to building a multimillion-dollar fair trade tea company. It’s such an inspirational story. Mark Wahlberg’s production company has actually optioned her book to create a TV series out of it. 
 
Something I love about Zhena is not only that she built this amazing company out of nothing but that she believes that business is the most powerful force for good on the planet. And that all executives should adopt a stronger triple bottom line commitment of PEOPLE, PLANET, & PROFIT. Yessss. 
 
Zhena was a pioneer of the fair trade movement. Her company, Zhena’s Gypsy Tea, which she is no longer the CEO of, was built from this holistic perspective - dedicated to building equitable trading partnerships that create opportunities to alleviate poverty. This includes providing fair wages and added benefits such as better housing, healthcare, education and a sustainable environment.

Hey guys! Welcome to Episode 17 of The Daily Cordial
 
Today I’m talking to an inspirational friend of mine.. Matt Coulter. 
 
Matt is the co-founder and executive director of The Young and Brave Foundation, which is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping today’s youth beat cancer. What an incredible intention, right? It’s an incredible foundation designed to support those, 40 and under, who are battling cancer. I also love that if you donate to a specific warrior 100% of the money goes to the family… it’s amazing. 
 
One of the things that inspires me most about Matt is his journey to find meaning in his life. 
He started his career in a high paying job, completely driven by money and status.
 
I think most of us can relate to the idea of chasing the wrong things… 
whether it’s Money, Fame, status, (the list goes on and on) and thinking these things are going to bring us that deep fulfillment that we are longing for… “When I have this, or when this happens THEN I will be happy. “
But these things are usually ego driven and insatiable.. so no matter how much money, fame or status we get, it will never be enough. 
 
And if you peel back yet another layer, I think ultimately we are just trying to prove to ourselves and others 
 
1. that we’re enough 
2. that we matter 
3. that we’re special
 
All of which is actually an inside job and will never be satiated from the external world. So either way we’re set up for failure chasing these things that our society places so much value on..   
 
And this is not to say you can’t want these things but understand, that they will probably not fulfill you in the way that you think they will. 
 
Some people go a lifetime unknowingly chasing these things only to reach their goal mystified as to why they don’t feel fulfilled.…and quite the opposite are greeted with empty dissatisfaction. 
 
What’s cool about Matt is that he made this discovery about himself early on. In his early 30’s, feeling dissatisfied and unfulfilled he quit his high paying job and shifted his purpose to giving back to others - starting “The Young and Brave Foundation” with his best friend, professional surfer Nathanial Curran. And his life has been different ever since. 
 
In today’s episode, Matt and I had a really fun and playful conversation and we cover a wide range of topics.. from …discovering your purpose and the value of living in service to others… to sensory deprivation tanks, journaling, sleep & creativity. 
 
We also discuss: 
  • The moment he realized he wasn’t happy and the changes he made to discover a life with meaning
  • His shift from serving SELF to serving OTHERS.. and how that’s changed his life
  • The link between doing what you love and authenticity 
  • How we can all make a difference
  • And much much more.. 
 
Matt is a super smart and creative guy and he’s using his skills to help the greater good, which is what it’s all about. 
 
Hope you guys enjoy the show.

Today we’re talking about the incredible influence that we have to shape our brains, and even our genes! Did you know that the lifestyle choices that we make can actually optimize how our genes and brains behave, allowing us to reach a state of health and fulfillment undreamed of even a decade ago. 
 
Our guest is Harvard Neuroscientist Dr. Rudy Tanzi.
 
Dr. Tanzi is a professor of Neurology at Harvard and Director of the genetics and aging research unit at Mass General Hospital. He is one of the world's foremost experts on the causes of Alzheimer’s. and was name to TIME magazine’s 100 most influential people in the world.
 
Dr Tanzi collaborated with physician and mind-body expert Deepak Chopra and co-authored two books - Super Brain and Super Genes, both of which absolutely blew open my mind!
 
Their first book, Super Brain, is a manual for relating to our brain in a new way. It shows us how to use our brain as a gateway for achieving health, happiness, and spiritual growth.
 
And then in their follow up Super Genes - they say that our experiences actually sculpt our genes! Crazy, right?!
They say, you will always have the genes you were born with, but genes are dynamic, responding to everything we think, say, and do. So, we are the user and controller of our genes, the author of our biological story. And our everyday lifestyle and habits, whether good or bad, are changing our gene activity.  
 
Chopra and Tanzi propose, that through a person’s increased self-awareness and conscious intention, the brain and genes can be taught to reach far beyond their present limitations. They say the brain and genes are capable of incredible healing and constant reshaping. And Through a new relationship with both you can achieve, what they call, radical well-being.

The wisest question when we are deeply sad is not, “How can I end or numb this pain immediately?” The wisest question is, “What is the meaning of this pain? or, “What does it reveal to me?" or "What is it calling me to understand?”  -Marianne Williamson, Tears to Triumph 

My guest today is one of my most important spiritual voices of our time, Marianne Williamson! This is a HUGE deal. Marianne has been one of my greatest teachers of all-time. She is an internationally-acclaimed spiritual author and lecturer. Seven of her twelve published books have been NY Times bestsellers, and four of them have been at #1 on the list!

Her mega-bestseller, A Return to Love, is a must-read. As is her newest book Tears to Triumph, which explores the spiritual journey from suffering to enlightenment. This book really changed my perspective on suffering. I HIGHLY recommend checking it out.

There’s so much value and wisdom packed into this episode, including:

  • What the role of forgiveness and love is in freeing us from our pain
  • How we can proactively cultivate happiness
  • The power of forgiveness
  • The wisest question you can ask yourself when you are deeply sad
  • and so much more.

 

In today’s show we explore:

  • Why suffering is a normal part of our human experience
  • The effects of the numbing of our pain
  • The medicalizing of human despair—the multi-million dollar business
  • Why we don’t need pills when we really need to “do the work”
  • The huge black wave of her depression that was unavoidable
  • Lessons learned in a failed political campaign
  • The power of surrendering to a higher power in suffering
  • How to pro-actively cultivate happiness
  • The importance of DOING for others
  • Grief: the psyche’s “immune system”
  • Forgiveness of self and others
  • Meditation to quiet the voice of ego
  • Relationships: where we come to heal
  • Taking responsibility for our speech
  • Buddhist principles -SAY the right thing; DO the right thing

Time Magazine proclaimed “Getting Things Done” to be ‘the definitive business self-help book of the decade.’

But this technique isn’t just for work - it’s a proven path for getting in control of your life.

  • We each have a comfort zone for unprocessed stuff.
  • Why we keep deadlines and commitments to others, but often NOT to ourselves
  • David’s plan can bring you success in ONLY TWO DAYS! It may take up to two years to become a habit.
  • Why do we procrastinate? We are afraid to fail, so we don’t start. It’s the perfectionist trap.
  • David shares his morning routine. You may be surprised at his priorities!
  • Why your lists and processes need a weekly review
  • Why are we here? “To experience who we are at multiple different levels and explore that so we return back to the essence of what we came from”

I am so excited to have Dr. Lise Janelle, a heart-centered success coach, as today’s guest. I am a huge fan of Dr. Janelle’s work, and it was amazing to be able to have a deep conversation about restoring our connection with ourselves, before we even attempt to connect with others. I learned so much by having this conversation with Dr. Janelle. She discusses how most of us are still dealing with negative conditioning from our past, and the fact that we are all worthy of love isn’t something everyone believes. The good news is there is a path to healing. Dr. Janelle has helped thousands of people move past their limiting beliefs.

 

I was able to get some really good examples of how we are impacted by our incorrect beliefs about ourselves, and she was also able to give us some incredibly valuable advice to change our beliefs.

 

We end the interview with a meditation, so don’t miss out as Dr. Lise guides us in the Heart Freedom Meditation!

 

 

Listen to the episode as Dr. Lise also discusses:

 

  • The events in her life that brought her to the breaking point
  • Why love is not an emotion
  • How the ying/yang is particularly illustrative of Dr. Lise’s work
  • How to get to a higher level of consciousness without having trauma as the catalyst
  • Why we fall into the trap on not wanting to do the work until something bad happens
  • Why up to 90% of our behaviors are based on conditioning and beliefs from our past
  • Are you petrified of love? Most people are and don’t even know it
  • 3 clues that sub-conscious beliefs are holding you back in any situation 
  • How the 2 stages of human development contribute to our belief systems about ourselves
  • Resources that can help you determine what your limiting beliefs are - find them and destroy them
  • Your limiting beliefs also have physiological impacts - learn how it manifests in your body
  • Finding the root cause of your patterns of belief can free you
  • The root cause of all of your pain lies in the belief that something is wrong with you.
  • The best way to protect your children from these limiting beliefs
  • Every challenge you experience is designed to help you
  • Ways the Best Friend Journal will help you overcome limiting beliefs
  • How you can dissolve the negative beliefs about yourself
  • Ways gratitude can play a role in your mind shift
  • It’s an act of love to get rid of thoughts that are no longer serving you
