Dan Brodsky-Chenfeld is widely recognized as one of the most accomplished skydivers in history; a living legend. His journey from mid-western kid to winning multiple gold medals is remarkable, and his ability to distill his experiences into practical leadership strategies has allowed Dan to enrich, empower, and inspire people worldwide.Dan's fascination with human flight began at age five and never let up. He made his first skydive as a freshman at Ohio State, trading labor for jumps while earning a degree in Aviation. By graduation, he was a licensed FAA pilot, parachute rigger, and USPA instructor/jumpmaster.Driven by a passion for competition, Dan moved to California to chase gold on the national and world stage. He soon joined Skydive Perris, where he now runs one of the largest and most respected dropzones in the world—home to over 100 employees and known for its safety, professionalism, and innovation.In 1992, Dan survived a devastating plane crash that took 16 lives, including a teammate he considered a little brother. Dan spent six weeks in a coma and suffered extensive injuries. Doctors doubted he'd survive—let alone skydive again.But within a year, Dan was not only back in the sky—he was back competing. His story of grit and resilience became the foundation of his acclaimed book, Above All Else, and launched a career as a sought-after speaker. From military units and elite universities to Fortune 500 companies, Dan inspires global audiences with powerful lessons on perseverance, teamwork, and mindset.Still active as a coach and mentor, Dan is shaping the next generation of skydivers and leaders. With over 32,000 jumps to his name, he remains a living symbol of passion, purpose, and the power of never giving up.https://www.danbrodsky-chenfeld.com/Support the showCan't get enough of the Journey On Podcast & it's guests?

It's time for you to reprogram your mind with the truth of the Word! Whatever occupies your mind will determine your destiny, and you'll never be able to claim victory until you learn to think in line with the truth. Satan will work overtime to flood your mind with images, trying to pull you into sin, but remember: sin doesn't kill you all at once. It starts with seeds of thought that will grow if you don't cast those thoughts down! Don't let torment become your comfort! Don't be someone who doesn't know who they are without their pain! Guard your heart ABOVE ALL ELSE and BELIEVE what God says you can do! Start speaking the Word over your pain, your heartbreak, your finances, your relationships, your family, your LIFE, and watch our God begin to work the miracles He's promised you!

Welcome to the first Quarks & Quaaludes #EpicHouseJourney show of 2025 for @saturo-sounds
Chris Moore, Director of Texas Port Ministry is our guest speaker today. His sermon is "Above All Else!"
The book of Proverbs teaches that ABOVE ALL ELSE we are to GUARD OUR HEARTS. In this message, Pastor Tony shares how this single instruction will make an enormous difference in our lives. Whether we realize it or not, there is much darkness in the world seeking to harm our hearts, and Jesus warned that if we do not stay discerning, eventually we can become just as twisted and evil.

ABOVE ALL ELSE #1Hey Friend-I see you. You struggle because it feels like you never have enough time for ALL-THE-THINGS in your life + biz…but what if ALL-THE-THINGS are taking the place of God in your heart + calendar? God calls (actually He commands) His people to love Him ABOVE ALL ELSE, but we regularly give our time, attention & affection away to LESSER things. And anything that gets priority over God is an IDOL. Ouch.How we spend our time reveals what we truly worship. So when we elevate other things above God, we make them an idol. Maybe your time issue is really an IDOLS OF THE HEART issue. You see, God is the only one who can fulfill and satisfy your every longing so it's not only a waste of time to try to find it in other places, it's actually a sin that separates you from the WITH-God Life. I know, that may not be what you wanted (or expected to hear) but it's true, and since we know our BUSYNESS is really a HEART issue, together we're about to embark on a 7-week Lent Series called ABOVE ALL ELSE.It's time to dethrone your idols and truly love God above all else by reclaiming the time and devotion that other gods are getting in your life + biz and redirecting them to Him.You ready to uncover the idols in your heart that are affecting not just your time, but more importantly your relationship WITH-God? Let's shine His light on what's really going on…I pray this blesses, challenges and moves you to action!L.Y.L.A.S. (Love Ya Like A Sis)LissaP.S. HELP ME HELP THEM.

William Keepin and Cynthia Brix are co-founders of Gender Equity and Reconciliation International. William, a climate scientist and physicist who also trained in clinical psychology with Stanislav Grof began GERI thirty years ago under the name “Gender and Ecology” in an effort to expose and heal the hypocrisies of working to end the exploitation of Mother Earth without simultaneously addressing the exploitation of women and the feminine. Over the years, GERI has evolved into an international program that brings people together from all walks of life to resolve the gender divide through honest and compassionate discourse, somatic work, and mindfulness practices. GERI prioritizes cross-cultural perspectives, and is inclusive of all gender identities, sexual identities and welcomes people of all ages and spiritual beliefs. Their book, Gender Equity & Reconciliation: Thirty Years of Healing the Most Ancient Wound in the Human Family is available now.Find William and Cynthia at grworld.org, and on Instagram, Twitter and FacebookWilliam & Cynthia's Book Recommendations: Think On These Things by Jiddu Krishnamurti, Strength to Love by Martin Luther King, and Cave in the Snow by Vicki MacKenzieSongs featured: “Above All Else, Be Kind” by AJIMAL and “Meet Me There” by Nick MulveyApply to present or teach at the Crestone Energy Fair in September or get more information about attending by clicking here.How to support the show:* Rate, review and subscribe to the podcast on iTunes* Become a paid subscriber on Substack* Visit my website - AnyaKaats.com & Find me on InstagramA Millennial's Guide to Saving the World is a reader and listener-supported project.

Freedom. A quick study of what freedom is and how to maintain it reveals a pattern. There's a common set of values that each of us has to understand and respect. These values are alive and strong today but it's getting harder to pass these on to younger generations. Today, Nicky and our guest, Chris Widener, talk about looking for and growing up with mentors who know how to motivate boys or other men to be the best they can be. We learn about the integrity of men while Chris talks about one of his books, The Real Man Handbook, and last but not least, we learn about freedom and an incredible event, The American Freedom Tour, that will make a major contribution to defending and promoting the freedoms we all enjoy and should continue to enjoy for generations to come. Chris Widener is an internationally renowned speaker, with clients like General Electric, Cisco Systems, Microsoft and the Harvard Business School. He's been a personal and professional development coach since 1988. In 1990, he started a small publishing company called the American Community Business Network. The name was eventually changed to Made for Success and tens of thousands of personal development programs were sold through large retailers like Costco, Sam's Club, Wal-Mart, Target and Barnes and Noble. He's authored over 450 articles and twenty books including best sellers such as The Angel Inside, The Art of Influence, The Leadership Rules, Live the Life You Have Always Dreamed Of, Twelve Pillars, and the sequel to Twelve Pillars, Above All Else. You can find the book that Chris co-authored with Larry Winget on Amazon. To learn more about The American Freedom Tour, go to https://americanfreedomtour.com/about.

In June, we will be taking a look at the navigation system of your life, the heart. Scripture is clear what we say and what we do are not accidents but come from within us. Proverbs 4:23 Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. If everything in life flows from our hearts, we must learn how to care for it well. We need to guard it and protect our hearts. That sounds great, but life can get messy, and how do you do that. How do we care for our heart? How do we heal our heart if it is broken? We will look at all this and more as we look at – Above All Else.

When you wake up each morning, you may have a plan for your day…errands to run, going to work, going to school… but, in fact, there's a bigger reality waiting for you.Because each day you wake up, you're going to war.Your opponent? Satan.The battleground? Your mind.And Satan doesn't give a flip that you go to church each Sunday, attend a Bible study, or say you love Jesus. The enemy knows that if he can get your mind, he's got you right where he wants you. Because the enemy knows the truth of Proverbs 23:7… the truth that tells us that “as a man thinks in his heart, so is he.”We can't afford to sit back and just let the enemy get the victory over our minds. It's why Proverbs 4 says that we are to guard this “ABOVE ALL ELSE.”In the battle for your mind, there is going to be a victor… and this is one battle that you can't afford to lose.

Welcome to episode 5 of, A Champion's Journey. I recently had the unforeseen and incredible opportunity to have a conversation with one of my heroes, Dan Brodsky-Chenfeld. Dan B.C. is a six-time World Champion skydiver and co-founder of the highly successful skydiving team, Arizona Airspeed. While training for competition in 1992, Dan survived a catastrophic plane crash which killed 16 people, including two members of his own skydiving team. He spent six weeks in a coma with severe traumatic injuries which included a broken neck and collapsed lung. During his long and painful road to recovery, Dan resolved to rebuild his strength and make his return to competitive skydiving.Not only did Dan return to skydiving, but he went on to lead his team in winning an impressive SIX World Championship titles. After spending nearly 40 years in the sport, Dan has enjoyed continued success, not just as a competitor but as a coach, role model, and mentor. In addition, he continues to motivate and inspire countless others with his remarkable story as an author and public speaker. Dan's book, “Above All Else,” gives a detailed and personal account of his deeply emotional and profoundly inspirational journey.
