Day Crushers: Jason Norman - Believer, Husband, Father Highlights from this episode of Crushing the Day:

In this captivating podcast episode, the impact of the transformative movement known as Apex takes center stage. Sebastian Rusk expresses his profound gratitude for what Ryan Stewman has achieved with Apex, stating that it has completely changed his life. Stewman reveals that Apex is not just a typical mastermind or networking group, but a powerful movement that provides a sense of belonging for those who have experienced abandonment or betrayal. Building Apex has been Stewman's most challenging endeavor, yet also the most rewarding. Astonishingly, Apex has rescued over 200 sex trafficked children, with all the profits going back into supporting essential facilities, employees, and charities. Despite their differences in personal lives, Rusk finds inspiration in Stewman's ability to build a successful business and create a loving family. This conversation underscores the remarkable impact of Apex in transforming lives and emphasizes the importance of compassion and making a positive difference in the world.Episode Outline:(00:00:05) The Impact of Apex(00:06:09) Overcoming Adversity and Finding Success(00:11:43) Chasing Life, Not Money(00:17:13) The Challenges of Leadership(00:22:34) Building a Successful Business with Integrity(00:28:05) Building a loyal and responsible community.(00:33:28) Living by Core Values(00:38:46) Discovering Podcasting(00:44:14) From Prison to Success(00:49:37) Finding Purpose Through Adversity(00:55:00) The Power of Embracing Your Calling(01:00:19) Unlikely Friendship in Prison(01:05:23) Life-changing experiences in prison(01:10:52) Signing off.Quotes:(00:04:07) But I looked around, and none of them had it. So I went, fucking got it. You're not bringing it back to us.(00:10:19) Man, this struggle makes me stronger.(00:15:26) The more I chase life and have a good life and being that example, the more money shows up.(00:20:49) A three-foot wave will kill you.

Success is a perspective. What's considered successful for one person may not be the definition of success for another.  It's important to determine what success will look like for you, and then find people that embody that to emulate.  Vice President of Break Free Academy, Drewbie Wilson, is in the studio today to talk about how to build your best life. As the author of Crushing The Day, and host of a podcast by the same name, Drewbie is focused on representing what winning looks like at all times. Drewbie utilizes what he calls the G-code, which focuses on gratitude, genetics, your grind, and the group of people you surround yourself with.  Within these four realms, he practices discipline on the daily.  We all have the same 24 hours in a day, but we don't all make the most of it. Drewbie shares how he's intentional with his time and how that's led to fulfillment in his life. What You'll Learn: Why you should have more than one mentor. How to make the most of your time. How to not let distractions derail your day.  Where the term ‘meme' originated from. And much more!! Favorite Quote: “If you don't have respect for your time, no one else is going to respect it either.” -Drewbie Wilson

The message is the same but the story is different. Everyone is trying to make a living but some people do it selfishly. It's rare to come across a person who wants to genuinely help. Drewbie Wilson has become one of the best sales producers because he isn't worried about making the sale- he's worried about making someone's day. Three and a half years ago, Drewbie was working at an insurance agency in Toledo, Ohio, doing the normal Monday through Friday grind. With a lovely family, he was living the life most people would consider ideal. However, he wasn't happy, as he puts it, “I was out of shape, not making enough money and most importantly not being the best version of myself.” Nothing would have changed for the better if he hadn't come to the realization and taken the necessary actions. Drewbie Wilson is now the Vice President of Break Free Academy. One of the Apex Entourage program's top sales producers considers himself primarily a "servant leader." He is also the host of an incredible podcast show and the best-selling author of Crushing The Day, a book that demonstrates simple strategies to achieve success in business and life through service to others.  Drewbie shares what confidence and passion do in your day-to-day systems. It can be anything from making someone laugh to sharing a story that inspires them. Although Drewbie has found the success he talks about why it isn't guaranteed for everyone.     What You'll Learn:  ●      The fear Drewbie had when he left Ohio and moved to Dallas to join APEX ●      Find ways to master your confidence ●      What is your close rate compared to your refund rate and why is that important- anyone can have a high close rate but not see the real results ●      The impact your mentor/owner of the company you're working work can affect you and how you operate in your position ●      Why Drewbie is known as the “Meme Lord” ●      What it truly means to serve other people and deliver what they need ●      The attitude Drewbie carries in life and why he does not allow excuses   Connect with Drewbie:  Website Instagram LinkedIn How to Get Involved: Patrick Bolanos is a serial entrepreneur, business owner, and CEO of Trailer King Builders in Houston, Texas. He was raised in Nicaragua, exposed to extreme poverty, and also had the fortune of being exposed to life in the United States traveling back and forth to both countries. After college, Patrick's career took him into the corporate world of banking where he learned the important lessons of understanding what you're selling and why it's important to believe in it. Back in December 2017, Patrick was fired from his job as a CFO for a Restaurant Group.  With only $500 to his name, rent due, his wife, 3 children at home, and one on the way, he was forced to figure out how to pull his family out of this financial abyss that was strangling his life. With no knowledge of how to build a trailer, Patrick simply figured all of it out and has now built it into the thriving empire of what's now become Trailer King Builders.

Out of everything I've learned in life, one stream of income is not enough.  It's one of the rewires we have to make that was programmed into us as children.  Our lifestyles.  We saw our parents do it.  They'd wake up, go to their one job, and come home.  In my house, there were times when one job was enough, until it wasn't.  As an adult when I went to prison, coming out I was now deemed a felon.  Finding one job, let alone 2 was a challenge, so I went into sales.  Sales took me to the mortgage industry.  When Obama passed the Dodd-Frank act, I lost my license and could no longer originate loans, so I had to hustle.  I started Hardcore Closer.  After that, Break Free Academy.  From there, I create Phonesites and everything kept expanding.  My point.  Each one of those companies has created revenue for me.  I created one.  Started another.  If you have only one strea of income, it won't be enough.  If you want to be rich-rich, have fuck you money, or simply build generational wealth, lean in and listen.  This one is for you.  #RiseAbove    HOW TO GET INVOLVED:  This planet is based on an algorithm and with every positive action, there is an adverse reaction.  Ryan Stewman rose and overcame a life of addiction, imprisonment, divorce, and circumstances that would break the spirit of the average human being.  He went on to create a powerful network of winners and champions in life and business creating a movement quickly changing lives one day at a time.  Learn more at: www.JoinTheApex.com   Check out this show and previous killer episodes of the ReWire Podcast in Apple Podcasts.

Have you ever asked why some people are more successful than others?  At this period in human history, we have access to more information, more technology, and more resources than ever before.  There's one differentiating factor that separates living a “common life” from those who live a high-performance lifestyle.  That one factor is the most important relationship that determines the outcome of their lives………….their relationship with themselves.    Stacy Raske is the Founder of Inflowential Impact, helping Executives, Business Owners, and Leaders find the key within them to unlock their untapped potential in life, love, and business. She's a best-selling author of the book, “Be a Boss and Fire That Bitch,” and Host of the InFLOWential CEO Podcast.

Jeff shares his belief that everything happens for a reason as Stacy shares some of the battles we all fight that is connected to having the best relationship with the most important person first…………you.     What You'll Learn: Some trauma cycles that keep us stagnant like self-sabotage Where Stacy grew up in early childhood Why it's important to live in the discomfort of being in a community  How to leverage the intelligence of a community to collapse time and obtain 5X returns in all areas of life What the true easy button in life is Why being a control freak was preventing Stacy from attaining more love, more money, and optimal health How clearing the way and creating the space for yourself will help you truly unlock the potential of what your life can be The direct correlation between purpose and freedom and why you can't have one without the other Why it's important to have a mentor and coach for your life, and not just your business Stacy's ideal client  How dealing with your internal climate will free you And much more!     Favorite Quote: “The second I was willing to say to myself, “I am worth investing in at that level and my vision, my purpose, my impact, my passion is worth investing in at that level. And then I focus and I show up. You can find all the information online but without the accountability and support, and guidance to utilize those tools, we're not going to show up and do it.” -Stacy Raske    Connect With Stacy:  Stacy Raske InFLOWential CEO Podcast  Book: “Be a Boss and Fire That Bitch” How to Get Involved: Addicted to Winning connects listeners through stories that prove why mindset matters.

Have you ever seen a cat chase its own tail, stand on its hind legs, hiss, and then make a mad leap onto the counter? It could be from the catnip, but in the case of entrepreneurs, it's what happens when they don't know where to channel the shiny objects, information overload, and their desire to execute immediately.  There's a system and process to everything we do in life and while the hustle is good, many business owners are wearing themselves out by not working in reverse.  Drewbie Wilson is Vice President of Break Free Academy, Founder and Creator of the Crush the Day Before it Crushes You Podcast, Author of the Best Selling Book, Crushing the Day Before it Crushes You, and creator of one of the most successful programs he attributes to generating well over $5 million dollars in sales, Closer Memes.  Today, Tom and Drewbie come in raw and real discussing a few pet peeves they see happening right now in entrepreneurship.  Tom shares his thought process as it pertains to creating offers, and Drewbie chimes in with the most important question you should ask before hosting an event. They volley back and forth discussing the process of writing a book, and they share the true insight into how profitable they are in the long run.  Drewbie discusses how he became the Closer Meme King and how it's created millions of dollars in sales for him.  He breaks down the psychology of why memes work so well and how to leverage the transfer of ideas. Drewbie shares how he's used memes to follow up with prospects without being pushy. Tom breaks down the brilliance of being a super nerd and his affinity for tracking the small, tedious details that show the true cost of doing business.  Drewbie breaks down the math and the logic behind his methodology of getting his cost per lead down.  If you're wanting to step up your marketing and sales game, bring your notepad and get ready for an education.    What You'll Learn:    The math behind truly knowing your numbers and the true cost of what you're paying for shitty leads How Drewbie took one popular concept, isolated it, and created the Closer Memes course which has generated over $5 million in sales in the last 2 years for Apex  How to properly plan an event starting from the most important question………. “Why are you throwing the event?”  Tom shares how he reverse engineers every single offer before it launches and the logic behind his methodical madness Drewbie shares what the E3 Method is and how you can leverage it to gain attraction in your market without spending 1 dollar  Bullshit sales tactics that aren't working in today's economy (and it's all based on human psychology) Why you should write a book and how to use that book in your life How doing things out of order can kill the congruency of your offers, and the number one reason many entrepreneurs lose traction in their businesses The compound effects of a program called Building Your Machine and how to leverage by simply following the process in chronological order Why you have to build backend processes to support what your business is offering FIRST!  And much more! Favorite Quote: “I recognize that from a sales perspective, I am not a hard closer.  I'm not somebody, that's “If you don't make this decision, it's going to ruin the rest of your life.” Fuck Off. You tell me that and for sure, I'm going to have a better life than you. But understanding that people are people.  It doesn't matter if I'm doing business with a consumer that's living paycheck to paycheck or a guy that has more money than he knows what to do with, they still are people. And people do business with people they know, like, and trust.  And for me from a sales perspective, I want that trust factor of like, “Yo! I'm just like you. I just want to help you.”  Drewbie Wilson    Connect with Drewbie: Facebook Instagram Crushing the Day Podcast: Crushing the Day Book: Crushing the Day      How To Get Involved: From his start in the GPS tracking industry to founding the Step It Up Academy, Tomas Keenan is on a mission to break out of the concept of “average” and reach the success that is anything but.

In this episode of Life after Addiction and Indictment, Paul and Tomas break down the most significant lessons in persistence, leadership, and building a legacy that Tomas has learned from his career path thus far, the steps you need to take if you want to create a business, not a job, how to gauge the worthiness of tasks in your business and narrow your responsibilities down to the proper categories, and how Tomas is currently impacting his clients and his audience in his role at Breakfree Academy and through his podcast, book, and content. Listen in for a powerful interview that will leave you eager to plan (and take action on) the next phase of your business and your life.   What you will learn: What Tomas figured out about the value of his time, his skills, and his money - and why you need to be able to get things out of the way and onto someone else's plate when need be How to develop a mindset - and the habits to match - that literally won't allow you to give in to being the average Why the point of writing a book isn't the money...but how a well-written book can massively boost your brand and your impact  And much more!   Favorite Quote: “One of the things that I've done, and I continue to live this way, is committed and figure the rest out on the way there. It's not easy for some people to do. Do I worry occasionally? Sure I do. But if you're all-in on something, if you have that mindset of never quit, never give up, you're going to have a good, positive outcome because you're not going to allow anything else to get in the way. Simple as that.” -   Tomas Keenan   Connect with Tomas: Facebook  LinkedIn Instagram ConnectwithTomas.com How To Get Involved: Find Steve on Linkedin, Facebook, Instagram, or the Life After Addiction and Indictment Facebook Group.

Description: No one's path to business ownership is the same, but even the most nontraditional path can lead to success and growth. The CoLab hosts Megan Marsh and Andres Munar are joined this episode by Ryan Stewman, who has overcome a lifetime of challenges to get to where he is today: CEO of Hardcore Closer, an online learning resource for salespeople that includes coaching and training courses. Stewman also runs the Break Free Academy and is the host of the THC Podcast and The ReWire Podcast. Let's know how to rewire yourself for business success... Show Notes: Doubt is an often unwanted but persistent guest in the brains of small business owners. It's there saying that running your own business is too hard, you're not cut out to be an owner, or that everything you built is one bad decision away from total failure. Are there steps you take to rise above that negative voice? The CoLab hosts Megan Marsh and Andres Munar have faced down these fears and others with the help of business coaches. Ryan Stewman, CEO of Hardcore Closer, joins Megan and Andres to discuss strategies for rewiring your brain to shut down doubt and build yourself up to be the successful business owner you know you can be. Ready to dive in? Here's what we're covering in this episode of The CoLab: [04:46] When everything seems to be going wrong, and you're struggling, it's easy to consider yourself cursed and destined to fail. As hard as those struggles are to deal with in the moment, they can pave the way for bigger, better things. [11:45] Not all paths to becoming a business owner start with a college degree and a healthy pot of seed money. Your path to business success might be mired with challenges, but the right mindset and hard work can help you overcome them. [20:10] Starting a business can be a second (or third or fourth) chance for entrepreneurs to prove themselves and rise above difficulties that have held them back in the past. [35:54] Not every business model is successful or sustainable. Instead of dwelling on a failed business, use it as an opportunity to grow and learn. Then, apply those lessons to another venture. [42:05] Being resourceful is an important but uncommon skill that can give business owners the edge over their competition. [44:22] Sales, marketing, hiring, and training processes are key to helping your business reach new levels of growth and take your enterprise beyond a one-person show. What about you?
