It's not uncommon to feel stuck, like you're just going through the motions, especially when life becomes routine or overwhelming. That feeling of quiet desperation can be a sign that something needs to change, whether it's in your personal life, work, or mindset. Breaking free and living on your own terms often starts with small, intentional choices—whether it's setting boundaries, exploring new passions, or simply giving yourself permission to pursue what truly makes you happy. It's all about creating a life that feels more aligned with who you are and what you value. Abel James Bascon is a valedictorian and Ivy League graduate turned entrepreneur, musician, and health advocate. In his journey of personal growth, he emphasizes personal responsibility, embracing change, and maintaining integrity. Today, Abel shares insights on navigating the health and fitness industry, the impact of technology and AI, and balancing financial sustainability with personal fulfillment. Join in as young leaders pose inquiries about life, personal development, and beyond! Quotes: “You can't give kids advice right now about what they're going to be when they grow up. We can't envision the future that's ahead of us—it's just too unpredictable. It's changing too quickly for us to know.” – Abel James Bascon “The algorithm isn't favoring real people doing real work and saying real things right now. So it's really up to us to spread these messages within our own networks and groups, and hopefully, turn people on to others who are doing good work.” – Abel James Bascon “Podcasting is a life sentence, though; it's a lot of work. However, the rewards are real, and they're usually not monetary. It's more about making a difference in people's lives.” – Abel James Bascon “Let's make good humans who are able to adapt, who are able to learn and get on board with self-learning, and who can unlearn certain things because they become no longer relevant, whether to the individual or to society in general.” – Matt Beaudreau Takeaways: Embrace a growth mindset and be open to new possibilities, even if they don't fit the traditional path. Unlearn what is no longer relevant and adapt to the rapidly changing world. Focus on becoming a "good human" rather than just pursuing predetermined goals. Cultivate skills like self-learning, curiosity, and the ability to break free from limiting habits or thoughts. Spread the messages of people doing meaningful, impactful work in health, wellness, and other important areas. Don't rely on algorithms to surface this content - actively share it within your own networks. When traveling for work, prioritize high-quality protein sources and avoid sugary, processed foods. Plan ahead and bring portable, healthy options to maintain a balanced diet on the road. Recognize that change needs to happen both from the bottom-up (individual choices) and the top-down (policy, regulation). Educate yourself and others on the difference between real, whole foods and industrialized products. Conclusion: Personal responsibility, adaptability, and authenticity are essential in successfully navigating life's challenges. By owning our actions, being open to change, and staying true to ourselves, we can approach difficult situations with confidence and resilience. These qualities not only help us overcome obstacles but also allow for personal growth along the way. Embracing these traits leads to a more fulfilling and balanced life.

We enjoyed our conversation and hope you will too.

Today, we proudly present something a little different on American Songcatcher. Instead of the usual documentary podcast-style piece, this is a compilation of field recordings I did in Buncombe and Madison Counties just outside of Asheville, NC. Considered the mecca of the long held traditions in ballad singing and old-time mountain music, this area is also home to the “Minstrel of the Appalachians”, one of the most important yet lesser-known figures in folk and old time music, Bascom Lamar Lunsford - who was born on this day 142 years ago.  Over the last year, I was fortunate enough to visit North Carolina several times, to visit with Bascom's old home and talk with head of the non-profit that now owns it, perform at the annual Lunsford Festival at Mars Hill University, and witness the return of filmmaker David Hoffman, who first filmed Bascom in the 1964, and was coming back to visit the area for the first time in the nearly 60 years since. This is a window into a living tradition.

She concludes by addressing efficient recruiting strategies, including clear job descriptions and the right channels for posting job ads, while underscoring the need to be slow in hiring but quick to fire, ensuring cultural fit and overall team harmony.   Have questions for Jamie? Email her at jamie@kerishullteam.com   Join Jamie as she discusses:   **Hire Producers First and Train in Groups**: Jamie Bascom advises focusing on hiring agents and ISAs simultaneously and conducting group training sessions. This approach is beneficial as it saves time, fosters a collaborative learning environment, and allows for quicker scaling of the team.   **Compensating ISAs and Encouraging Accountability**: Discussing the compensation structure for ISAs, both part-time and full-time, and emphasizing the need for accountability. She suggests a model where part-time ISAs receive a percentage of commissions, while full-time ISAs have a scaled salary structure complemented by commission incentives.   **Delegate to Complement Weaknesses**: Jamie highlights the importance of delegation by hiring people strong in areas where you are weak. This strategy ensures that the team as a whole is balanced and effective, and helps in building a system that can operate efficiently even in the leader's absence. QUOTES TO SHARE   **On the Importance of Hiring**: "Hire producers first that duplicate your systems and processes... the more agents you can bring on at once and the more quickly that can happen."   **On Training and Accountability**: "Accountability is everything... Mastering the scripts... and implement the daily expectations."   **On Delegation and Team Building**: "Learn to delegate, bring people on who are strong where you're weak... create a system to duplicate your processes."

How do you feed your family when you're as poor as a churchmouse? To help celebrate the holidays, today we have a very special throwback episode for you with my grandmother Nan. When I first started this show, almost 13 years ago, I bought a cheap little video camera and interviewed Nan at her house because she's pretty much my favorite person in the universe. As many of you know, Nan's wisdom is ever present in our work, and especially my book, The Wild Diet. But who is Nan anyway? Well, Marion Bascom, affectionately known as Nan was a nurse, a Second Lieutenant in the US Army, and a city girl who married my grandfather, Horace, a dairy farmer, and took on the challenges of tending to a dairy farm, organic garden and homestead while raising 7 children. After living the good life for almost a century, Nan passed away a few years ago at the age of 97. And I'm very happy to be able to share some of her wisdom with you here today. We could all benefit from listening to a few words from the elders these days. This interview is very dear to my heart, and I hope this show with Nan brings a smile to your face and warms your heart, too. Get ready to smile. In this conversation with my grandmother, we're chatting about: Incredible stories from raising 7 children on a farm with almost no money The low cost of food when you grow it yourself Family meals, gardening, canning and foraging for wild edibles behind the house What Nan did when she thought one of the kids was on drugs How to make homemade bread, ice cream, yogurt, jellies and pickles… she even made her own root beer Nan's secret to a good long life And tons more… Read the show notes: https://fatburningman.com/marion-nan-bascom-love-wisdom-straight-from-my-grandmother/ Join The Wild Guild and get freebies on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/abeljames  Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/fatburningman  Like the show on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/fatburningman  Follow on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/fatburnman  Click here for your free Fat-Burning Kit: http://fatburningman.com/bonus
