  • E318: The Power of Fitness, Fellowship, and Faith with Marc Rubenstein
    Jul 29 2024
    What do physical therapy and men's fitness have in common? For Marc Rubenstein, the answer lies in his inspiring journey of personal growth and community impact. In this episode, Erik Cabral sits down with Marc, a physical therapist and community leader, as he shares his personal journey of mental health challenges and the transformative power of self-care, mindfulness, and the F3 organization. Marc openly discusses his struggles with anxiety and depression, and how he found healing through practices like meditation, journaling, and connecting with a supportive community. Get inspired by Marc's inspiring story and practical insights so you can start prioritizing your mental well-being and embark on your own path to holistic health. Here are some power takeaways from today’s conversation: Marc's personal struggle with mental health challenges The transformative power of self-care and mindfulness practices The role of community and support systems in mental health recovery Practical tips for incorporating wellness routines into daily life Marc's mission to destigmatize mental health and empower others Episode Highlights: [10:41] The Therapeutic Approach: It's a Partnership, Not a Fix Marc emphasizes that in his work as a physical therapist, he doesn't believe in "fixing" people. He explains that patients often come in wanting to be "fixed," but Marc sees it as a partnership where he helps coach and guide them through the recovery process. As a coach, Marc does hands-on work, but he stresses that real progress happens when the patient becomes invested in their own recovery. Marc's approach has evolved to see his role as helping patients take ownership of their health and condition, as he believes that active engagement is key to their healing and progress. [12:56] The Power of Community in F3 Marc discusses his involvement with the F3 organization, a leadership group that teaches men to be leaders in their community and support each other's growth. He explains that the "faith" aspect refers to the belief in each other and something bigger, rather than a specific religion. Marc appreciates the consistent structure and welcoming community of F3, which brings together men from diverse backgrounds. He has found the accessibility, lack of fees, and opportunities for members to lead initiatives to be transformative. [23:27] The Analogy of Fitness, Fellowship, and Faith in F3 Marc uses a powerful analogy to describe the three key elements of the F3 organization. He explains that the "fitness" is the magnet that draws people in, the "fellowship" is the glue that keeps the group connected, and the "faith" is the dynamite that fuels their growth and impact. Marc further elaborates that the "faith" aspect is exemplified in how the members share their personal faith journeys with one another, which helps foster a deeper sense of community and connection within the group.

  • E317: Dr. Randy Lehman on Entrepreneurship, Faith, and Rural Healthcare
    Jun 17 2024
    Is pursuing your passion worth the challenges it may bring? This week, Erik Cabral sits down with Dr. Randy Lehman, a general surgeon who has dedicated his career to rural healthcare through his business, Liberty Clinic. After years of training, he returned home hoping to open a practice. But reimbursement cuts squeezed margins, and within two years his clinic was losing money fast. Most would quit, but not Randy – he found a way to partner with the local hospital, turning everything around. Now his clinic thrives. Tune in to hear Randy's story of perseverance facing adversity and learn how dedication can help you overcome challenges in business. Learn lessons on grit, balancing family/career, and viewing resources as a stewardship to empower risk-taking. Here are some power takeaways from today’s conversation: Malcolm Gladwell’s model of immigrant success The stewardship mindset around money Lessons from grandpa Investing in cash-flowing properties Buying businesses vs. buildings Private practice struggles and personal growth Episode Highlights: [07:18] Malcolm Gladwell's Model of Immigrant Success Randy references Malcolm Gladwell's idea that successive generations of immigrants often improve their careers and social mobility. The first may do manual labor, then their kids own businesses, and grandchildren enter professions like doctor or lawyer. Randy saw this pattern in his own family history, going from farming to other jobs to him becoming a physician. It demonstrates how families can achieve more over generations as they assimilate and children have greater opportunities. [12:08] The Stewardship Mindset: How Reframing Wealth Empowers Risk-Taking Randy believes that seeing yourself as a steward of your money rather than its owner, allows for greater risk-taking. Working hard and saving responsibly builds assets, but viewing that as a gift from God removes pressure. This mindset of stewardship means the money isn't truly yours to lose. It lets you feel freer to take chances furthering your goals without stressing as much over potential failures. [16:41] Lessons from Grandpa Randy’s grandpa played a big role in shaping how he takes risks. By watching grandpa build up his money gradually by paying off farms through tough financial times, Lehman learned the importance of smart long-term investments. This showed him the value of resilience against hardships and patience in managing wealth over years. Those lessons from grandpa helped inform Lehman's style - keeping debt low and focusing on properties that bring in cash now while growing in worth down the road. [23:06] Buying Businesses vs. Buildings Randy notes that a well-run small business could be an appreciating asset that generates substantial cash flow to pay down debt quickly. However, he cautions that he would want to see the business already cash flowing strongly with minimal or no debt load. This aligns with his strategy of focusing on investments that produce income from the start rather than speculative plays. Overall, he is open to business ownership as an investment aligned with his philosophy of gaining assets that work for him through rental income or profits, as opposed to tying up money in non-income generating ventures like vacant land.

  • E316: Breaking Unhealthy Habits with Joya Van Der Laan
    May 20 2024
    Feeling stuck in a cycle of unhealthy habits? Listen to this episode as Erik Cabral interviews functional medicine practitioner Joya Van Der Laan. Joya shares practical ways to break free through small, sustainable changes. She takes a whole-body approach to common issues beyond just covering symptoms. Discover how to support your wellbeing through nutrition, exercise, sleep and reducing toxins. Joya even recommends apps to check food safety before grocery shopping. This episode brings some empowering tips to nourish your amazing system from the inside out -– and start getting motivated to feel your very best! Here are some power takeaways from today’s conversation: Functional medicine vs symptom treatment Questioning mainstream beliefs & study funding Breaking unhealthy habits through small changes Toxic chemicals & safer alternatives Apps for checking food toxicity Exercise, sleep, & nutrition for aging Episode Highlights: [00:56] What is Functional Medicine? Functional medicine is all about finding what's really causing your health issues instead of just covering up symptoms. It digs deeper than surface level to see what's actually going on inside your body rather than just treating what you can see. Providers want to get to the why instead of just the what. They take a whole-picture look, like how your nutrition, stress, sleep and other lifestyle stuff might be affecting you. Then they help even things out so your body can do its thing in the best way. [20:14] A Holistic Approach to Common Health Issues Joya takes a holistic view with common issues like insomnia, headaches, and menopause changes. Instead of just masking symptoms, she uses thorough testing to find root causes like nutritional gaps or hormone imbalances. This lets Joya address health issues at the core through personalized lifestyle and eating plans. She doesn't just cover up what's happening but gets to the bottom of it. [25:01] A COVID Spark for Questioning Old Ways Joya discusses how the COVID-19 pandemic may have caused some folks to double down in fully trusting mainstream views. But for others with inquisitive minds, it sparked questions about things like the government's true aims and Big Pharma's role. People open to rethinking issues started connecting more dots. This "mind-opening" led some down the path of checking out alternative approaches like functional medicine. [35:48] Check Your Products the Easy Way Joya talks about how apps like EWG Clean Living and Think Dirty can help folks out. You can scan barcodes right in the store to see if products got any nasty chemicals or hormone messing stuff. She recommends scanning beauty and cleaning items to find better options. By taking a couple extra minutes to scan, you can shop smarter for your wellbeing.
