Interview with Eric Kussin: S5E9After a successful career that started at the NBA League Office, and led to senior management positions with a number of professional sports teams, Eric's mental health took a sudden and rapid decline.Due to unresolved personal life traumas he failed to appropriately address at a younger age – life experiences he was unaware were affecting his mental health – Eric developed a severe bout of PTSD, along with symptoms of anxiety and depression. This fall came essentially “out of nowhere” and left him almost permanently in bed, and with severe cognitive impairment, for just over two and a half years. Once he found a way to climb out of his abyss, he vowed to spend the rest of his life focused on changing the global conversation through mental health advocacy.It wasn't until he met practitioners who taught him methods to actually heal his body and central nervous system, that he began to improve and get his life back. He is determined to spread his message: that EVERYONE in the world is affected by life's inevitable traumas and stresses. We can't escape them, as they are part of the human experience and they impact us on many levels. Mental health exists on a continuum, with some simply experiencing more severe declines than others over varying periods of time in their lives (and/or being more genetically predisposed to such declines). Because of this, his view is that we should all be open and accepting of those who need help, because we're one community in this “crazy” world, all fighting our own unique, but often similar, battles.Same Here App:Global Mental Health Movement | Gym for the Brain - Same Here (samehereglobal.org)Website:Home | Same Here GlobalLinkedIn:(2) Eric Kussin | LinkedInInstagram:@eric_kussin • Instagram photos and videosTwitter:(1) #SameHere Global Mental Health Movement 501c3 (@SameHere_Global) / X (twitter.com)Eric Reyes: Host of Hey Coach!

 Interview with Dan McGee: S4E16Driven by a deep-rooted belief in the power of healthy teams, Dan McGee has spent the last 30 years being a part of, creating and leading teams of all shapes and sizes to achieve remarkable results. Dan's professional leadership journey began in 1992 with the United States Marine Corps.  He spent almost 8 years as an infantry officer leading as many as 175 infantry Marines as both a platoon and company commander, and also served as an instructor at the The Basic School and Infantry Officer Course instructing new USMC infantry lieutenants. Upon his discharge from the USMC, Dan had the privilege of spending the next two decades as an FBI Agent which included several years as a SWAT team member. During his time with the FBI, Dan spent many years being a part of and leading teams involved in counterterrorism matters. Talk about high pressure! His growth as a leader was facilitated by serving in roles as a counterterrorism and cyber crime squad supervisor, senior FBI Liaison to the United States Southern Command, and as an Assistant Special Agent in Charge (ASAC) where he oversaw counterterrorism, counterintelligence, and cyber investigative matters as well as intelligence, crisis response, compliance, and other executive functions. When it was time to make a change, Dan left his role at the FBI to pursue using his extensive leadership and operational experience to help executives, corporations, and teams of all shapes and sizes become the best versions of themselves. And with that Greater Teams was born. Dan's unique approach to coaching and leadership isn't aimed at helping leaders simply produce more of the desired end product, but rather to help leaders learn how to build effective, healthy, and dynamic teams who take performance to the NEXT level.

Cracking the Stress Secret: Interview with Dr. Amir RashidianAmir A. Rashidian was born in Iran in 1974. He was 5-years old when the rioting began, and the government was overthrown. Iran became the Islamic Republic of Iran and the world as he knew it changed. He still remembers the gruesome violence of that time and although several decades have passed, he can recall the scenes like they occurred yesterday.Before leaving Iran, Amir's dad wanted to teach him about poverty and life in the underprivileged regions of Iran, the villages in the foothills of the Elburz mountain range. In one of those villages, Amir was witness to a young woman who had gone into labor. The midwife told her and her husband that the baby was not alive, and the young woman would likely not survive. That woman died in her husband's arms because there were no doctors in that village. Amir decided at that moment to commit his life to become a doctor, to saving lives and preventing unnecessary death.In America, driven by his dream to become a doctor. During his sophomore year at GWU, Amir's father began to suffer from nerve damage and spinal cord compression in his neck resulting from degenerative spinal arthritis. This severely painful condition had caused Amir's dad to lose function and control of his arms and hands. They consulted with three neurosurgeons who all agreed that Amir's dad needed an invasive high-risk neck surgery. Fortuitously, they came across a chiropractor who claimed he could help Amir's dad without drugs or surgery. After 6 months of chiropractic holistic care, Amir's father was free of all pain and full function had been restored to his arms and hands. This incident is where Amir got his passion for holistic healthcare and disease prevention. Amir is the founder of the Mid-Atlantic Chiropractic Center focusing on high-tech diagnostics to detect and correct disturbances in the nervous system. A very active speaker at corporate events, conventions, and churches, he is also frequently interviewed by the local TV, radio, and newspaper.Website:Health and Wellness Speaker - The Rashidian Method (drrashidian.com)Chiropractors Frederick MD - Mid Atlantic Chiropractic Center (midatlanticclinic.com)Book:Cracking the Stress Secret: How to Turn Pressure into Power - Kindle edition by Rashidian D.C., Amir A..

A Product That Changed a Life In More Ways Than One: Interview with Gary SternBorn in Baltimore, MD.  He and his mom ended up in a small town near the Kennedy Space Center on the Atlantic Ocean.    He was constantly in the ocean where he learned to surf and sailboard. He'd get to visit his brother in Colorado where he got the snowboarding and mountain biking bug.          Gary, graduated as a Physical Therapist from the University of Florida.  He had every job imaginable to help pay the bills.  Lawn service, landscaping, restaurant, retail, construction - the list goes on and on.  He had the opportunity to work with professional athletes and public figures from all over the world at the Steadman-Hawkins Clinic in Vail, CO, quickly establishing a reputation for helping these patients extend their careers.       Life's trials weren't over yet though.  His father died of cancer in May of 1998 and I moved back to Florida to take care of his mother who was also diagnosed with cancer.  He was blessed to meet his wife Danielle soon after moving back to Florida.  He got married 2 years later.  He went into pharmaceutical sales working for GlaxoSmithKline in an attempt to increase his salary while allowing more flexibility of my schedule to care for his mom. She passed away in May of 2000.     He needed an outlet and quickly found one in cycling.  Training and racing became his "therapy".  He went on to race successfully for 15 years, racking up numerous wins in mountain biking and road racing including 5 Florida State Time Trial Championships.   This led him to meeting his coach and good friend, Simon Kessler.  He never realized how important this meeting would be to his life's direction.     Simon called him up and asked him to take a look at a product he was suggesting to his coaching clients.       That became a life-changing journey! Gary was able to "retire" from his pharmaceutical career and never look back. He had the opportunity to travel all over the world to share the message of time and financial freedom.  Website:Gary Stern (garystern2.com)Eric Reyes: Host of Hey Coach!
