When your business feels like it's crumbling, what do you do? Some men cling harder. Some walk away. But the rare few — they evolve. Today's guest, Ryland Engelhart, is one of those rare few. He helped build Café Gratitude into a beloved brand, co-founded the global movement Kiss the Ground, produced award-winning films about regeneration, and is now helping create Sovereignty Ranch—a living, breathing example of legacy in action. But none of that happened without walking away from what no longer served him. And that's exactly what today's conversation is about. If you're standing at a crossroads in business, family, or purpose, this conversation will show you how to lead through it. In this episode, you'll discover:

In this episode, Dr. Will Cole is joined by Soto Zen Buddhist and Executive Chef, Seizan Dreux Ellis. After spending 8 years in Venice, Italy apprenticing in kitchens, Dreux returned to San Francisco with a mission to bring his health-based, flavor driven cuisine to a wider audience and soon began working for the renowned plant-based restaurant, Café Gratitude. From the journey of finding Zen Buddhism and its connection to diet, to the healing powers of affirmations, plant-based eating, and restoring a damaged mind-body connection, this episode will show you exactly how to achieve the vibrant wellness you deserve by using food as medicine. Plus, at the end of the episode, the two disclose an exciting collaborated project that is finally here - The Gut Feelings by Dr. Will Cole limited-edition menu, available at all Café Gratitude locations in Southern California!

Cheryl Esposito welcomes Terces & Matthew Engelhart, restaurateurs, organic farmers, teachers, & authors of Sacred Commerce: Business As A Path of Awakening. The Engelhart's are known for their raw foods eateries, Café Gratitude, as their experiment in a business model called Sacred Commerce. They don't see themselves as in the restaurant business, but in the transformation business. They believe & practice that “…every business is an opportunity to make a lasting impact on the lives of both clients and employees.”Sacred Commerce is a practice in how life transforms when community focuses on Love, Spirit, The Divine. Each day, they & employees of the Cafés & their farm, practice shifting attention to love & acceptance, gratitude, generosity, abundance, & the privilege of serving others. “Life is an inside job. We encourage focus & attention on qualities that inspire & empower, not just at work, but in all areas of life.” Join the conversation and expand your attitude of gratitude!

What are the mechanics of gratitude? And how do we practically recognise abundance? Today we are thrilled to welcome Terces and Matthew Engelhart onto the show. Authors, co-founders of Café Gratitude and creators of The Abounding River Board Game, Terces and Matthew are fascinating examples of how to lead lives of spirituality, kindness and compassion - all while interfacing with the corporate world and managing the tension of growing a global brand. Covering abundance, systems of oppression and human connection, Terces and Matthew share stories from both their personal and professional partnership; so we can better understand the obstacles and opportunities that emerge when doing what you truly love.

I met Ryland Engelhart at a Deepak Chopra wellness retreat in South Carolina. If you are a food person, his name may or may not be familiar to you, but his family's two restaurant brands in Southern California (Café Gratitude and Gracias Madre) are synonymous with healthy, highly tasty vegan dishes that are not named after ingredients or a chef's daughter but are instead positive affirmations. If you go to one of Café Gratitude's eight locations in Southern California, and want a delicious, gluten-free salad of edamame, mustard-marinated kale, warm broccolini with dill, avocado and maple-toasted seeds, be prepared to let your server know when he comes to the table that I AM ENCHANCHANTING.   Before you roll your eyes, know that these affirmations, indeed, Ryland's doctrine of living are genuine. He freely states that in the early 2000s when he and his brother migrated from San Francisco to Los Angeles with the concept of Café Gratitude, he specifically did so with the zeal and belief of an evangelist. He was on a mission to change the world through food, humbly serving his fellow humans and creating a culture of health.  That same zeal and belief underpins his “huge, foolish project, like Noah…” called Kiss the Ground, a non-profit organization that explores how we save the earth from global warming and the human species from extinction through regenerative agriculture and literally pulling CO2 out of the atmosphere and putting it back into the ground. Kiss the Ground is also the name of a film Ryland produced that has had over 5 million views on Netflix and won significant acclaim for the message that paints a 3D picture of how we can sustain our food supply and the planet. The film, even with all its successes, has also been deeply criticized for a lack of diversity and not connecting the tenants of land management to its roots in the Native American and indigenous peoples of the North American Continent. That criticism has touched Ryland personally. It has been a source of disenchantment, self-distrust and apathy. He authentically describes how one of the greatest achievements of his life, has also been the cause of pain and the evaporation of his ideas of who he is. We speak to Ryland during a time in his life when he is the process of rebuilding, reflection and reexamination. This is his season of life where there is no production, but silence, stillness and tarrying as springtime glimmers on the horizon. It's a lesson for us all, really. As he describes it, there is a “divine timing for the inhale and the exhale.” And as with each breath, there is always a pause.Kiss the Ground CommunityRyland on IGPatrick's WebsitePatrick on IGAt the Podium on IGPatrick on LinkedIn

Over seven years ago, food activist, entrepreneur, filmmaker, and Café Gratitude founder Ryland Engelhart took a trip to New Zealand, where he saw a panel presentation that moved him to tears. He was convinced that there was simply too much carbon in the atmosphere. Even if humanity successfully reduced its emissions and decarbonized transportation, he likened the experience to slowly driving off a cliff. But after this presentation, he saw another - and it helped him truly understand the connection between nature and humanity. He finally saw a way forward, a way to make the world better in seven generations, and could envision a pathway to the future that didn’t end in catastrophe. Over the next seven years, Ryland put together the Kiss The Ground documentary to share this discovery with as many people as possible, and I’ve been excited about this film for a long time. Narrated by Woody Harrelson and now streaming worldwide on Netflix, the film has been called “The key to combating climate change” by Forbes and lauded for inspiring “A rare feeling of hope” by the New York Times. My family and I watched the film twice in the last week, and I’m astounded by what Ryland has achieved. In our conversation today, Ryland and I discuss the incredible journey that led to him making the movie, and how to consciously think about the deep connection between the health of our bodies and the planet in your daily practice. We explore how to use these concepts in your life, in nature, in your business, and in your family to create sustainable growth. As Dads and entrepreneurs, it’s on us to protect and heal our families and the planet, and Ryland is issuing a call to arms in service of our planet. Gold Nuggets What Ryland learned over the seven years he spent making Kiss The Ground. How a presentation about carbon emissions and symbiosis helped Ryland connect the dots between the health of our bodies, our environment, and our planet and inspired his mission. How Ryland is paying homage to an urgent, pressing story with ancient roots through his work as an activist. Why we are all waking up to the fact that things aren’t going well in our food system - and why this is a powerful opportunity for change. Big Questions Asked How can we use the principles of regeneration to heal ourselves and our planet? What can we do to make ourselves more effective storytellers? How can we help others make a commitment to their own health and the health of our planet? Is learning imprinted upon us, or are we enlightened by wisdom when we hear, see, or feel something? Why should regeneration matter to a Dad who hears this and says to himself, “I’m not a farmer,” and what roles can they take to protect and provide for their families and the planet? How much time do we have left to prevent the sixth mass extinction? Get the Full Show Notes Want access to the full show notes, including links to all resources mentioned during today's conversation?

In this episode, I share my thoughts of solutions on the current corona crisis: A regular meditation or Seidr practice, for example the Nordic shamanic practice of out sitting / udesidning. Also gratitude practice, a regular schedule and a connection with our fylge, our spirit guides, ancestors and nature. Returning to nature - our natural habitat and possible solutions in the economic crisis before us; Regenerative agriculture, permaculture, homesteading and becoming independent of the system. I also talk about omens in nature and dream symbolism.

It wasn’t planned this way, but I’m grateful to be able to release so many of my interviews from Attune Experience 2019 during this chaotic and stressful time. Not only are these fun conversations a nice distraction but their emphasis on spiritual transformation and inspiration is a message the world needs right now. And if you want to see what Attune is doing in 2020, head over to attuneexperience.com to learn more. Today’s high-vibe guest is probably going to be familiar to anyone from the LA or Bay areas: Ryland Engelhart, the co-owner of Café Gratitude and the Mission Fulfillment Officer of Love Serve Remember. The original Café Gratitude was a manifestation of a visionary concept — that food, gratitude, and love are the recipes for cultivating community and a reverence for the living world. One restaurant grew into seven throughout the Bay Area, and in 2011, Ryland and his brother brought Café Gratitude to Los Angeles. All of the restaurants are amazing, by the way, and serve 100% plant-based organic cuisine. Ryland’s life purpose is to be an expression of love in action — and you really do feel this when you eat at any of their locations — but now he’s trying to express that love on an even grander scale. Empowered with new research on regenerative agriculture's power to heal our planet, Ryland co-founded Kiss the Ground, an education and advocacy NGO working to transform our food system based in Venice, California. We talk all about why we need to change our worldwide farming practices VERY SOON, the transformative potential of regenerative farming, and what Kiss the Ground is doing to teach people more about the regenerative model. You’re going to have trouble not expressing some gratitude for our wonderful planet after this episode is over.   11:00 — The origins of Café Gratitude Ryland’s dad’s divorce The role of Landmark Forum The original raw food gaming parlor Inviting people into a new view of life The biggest difference between Café Gratitude and most restaurants (hint: it’s not the plant-based food)   22:18 — The “Clearing” process What’s your biggest concern in life right now?

Ross and Carrie cough up too much money to attend a one-night dinner inspired by the famous Source Family, a hippie-spiritual commune headed by Jim Baker, who owned one of the first health food restaurants in the country, on LA's Sunset Strip. The group functionally dissolved after the death of Baker (AKA Father Yod) in 1975, but a 2012 documentary brought its memory back to life. Now, local vegan restaurant Café Gratitude, which claims inspiration from The Source Family, hosts its own event, honoring Father Yod and his followers... some of whom attend. Plus, we learn all about Café Gratitude's unofficial connection to the "personal growth" corporation Landmark International, and find out who Father Yod wouldn't vote for in 2020.

“Love is not something found in a person, place or thing. It’s something that is ever present in our hearts and always available as a gift and it costs nothing to share it.”Ryland EngelhartLast week we explored the world of regenerative farming, soil health and biodiversity as critical levers to improve human health. Consolidate food security. Drawdown carbon. And backpedal climate change.Today we expound on that theme with entrepreneur, restauranteur and social activist Ryland Engelhart.Ryland is the ‘Mission Fulfillment Officer' and co-owner of Café Gratitude and Gracias Madre, a family owned group of legendary plant-based restaurants. The epicenter of California vegan cuisine & culture, it's a platform he uses to not only feed people amazing food but to cultivate community — and most importantly, inspire more gratitude into our lives and culture.In addition, Ryland is a speaker and passionate advocate for sacred commerce, community building and regenerative farming principles, which he supports as co-founder of Kiss The Ground, a non-profit that provides education regarding the connection between soil, human, and planetary health. Among its board of advisors are former podcast guests Paul Hawken, Dr. Zach Bush and David Bronner.If you enjoyed those conversations, or last week's exchange with John & Molly Chester, then you're in for a treat with Ryland.This is a conversation about the importance of soil regeneration and its impact on everything from food security and climate change reversal to improving human health.We open with Ryland’s hippie upbringing. How he learned early the philosophy of using business as a force for good — something he calls sacred commerce.We discuss how doing good — adding value to people’s lives — is not only always the right thing to do, but also the best long-term path to profits.We explore the origins, trajectory and intentionality behind his family's incredible group of restaurants — Cafe Gratitude, Gracias Madre and his sister’s Sage Plant-Based Bistros — which together form the cornerstone of plant-based dining in Los Angeles and beyond.Then we dive into the principles of conscious capitalism, the importance of regenerative farming, and the reasons why soil health is such a crucial component in the holistic equation of sustainable human, animal and planetary health.Finally we discuss his various film projects, including his documentaries May I Be Frank* and Kiss The Ground — a must see you might have heard Woody Harrelson recently raving about on Marc Maron’s podcast.But more than anything, this is a conversation about love, awareness, and the power of gratitude as a living, breathing philosophy of life.You can watch it all go down on YouTube....

In this episode Matthew Engelhart of Café Gratitude, discusses his experiences with veganic farming and the ultimate decision to switch to regenerative farming practices with animal husbandry. Matthew has now developed a model food production system, believing variety to be more resilient to world and climate unrest and more fun. On his farm, Be Love Farm, dozens of different foods from Asparagus to Zinfandel are produced. Produce is served at his restaurant, Gracias Madre, in the Mission District of San Francisco and the farm routinely open their doors to people who want to visit and learn with a direct, hands on approach.

On a scale of 1-10, how grateful would you say that you are every day, in each moment, and how present are you for all that you have to be grateful for? Personally, I believe that GRATITUDE is the key to true and lasting happiness, and I would humbly rate myself at a “9” on the gratitude scale. But that wasn’t always the case for me. In fact, quite the opposite. Just ask my mom. She’ll tell you that, growing up, gratitude was definitely NOT one of my strengths. It wasn’t until I learned the power that gratitude has in determining the quality of our lives that I made it a priority and the quality of my life my life has been radically transformed as a result. When I was diagnosed with cancer, I was immediately grateful (literally). For what you might be wondering? For the extraordinary adversity that I believed would provide me the opportunity to learn, grow, and become a better version of myself. On today’s podcast episode, you’ll meet one of the most genuinely grateful people I have ever met – someone whom I deeply admire – Ryland Engelhart. Ryland is the Mission Fulfillment Officer and co-owner of my absolutely favorite restaurant in the world – one that is changing the world – Café Gratitude! Today, he joins the podcast to share how to amplify gratitude and happiness in your life every single day, and how humanity can live regeneratively in relation to nature.   Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit HalElrod.com/276 You can also find a special version of the episode on the PremoCast app (iPhone only): http://blog.premocast.com/episode-276   Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

** Das Interview ist auf Englisch. Die Übersetzung findest Du auf meinem Blog und auf YouTube als Untertitel. **  Als ich in LA war hat ein besonderes Café ein Frühstück zu etwas ganz Magischen gemacht. Das Café Gratitude. In diesem einzigartigen Café wird man mit der Frage begrüßt: „Wofür bist du dankbar?“. Das ganze Konzept und die tolle Energie hat mich so begeistert, dass ich alles darüber wissen wollte. Daher freue ich mich heute ganz besonders die Gründer vom Café Gratitude im Podcast zu haben: Matthew und Terces Engelhart. Die beiden haben in den letzten Jahren ein erfolgreiches Business aufgebaut und eine einzigartige Arbeitsatmosphäre geschaffen, in der Dankbarkeit und Fülle im Fokus stehen.  Im Interview sprechen wir über den spirituellen Weg der beiden, was sie zu dem Café Gratitude inspiriert hat und wie sie Spiritualität und Business erfolgreich verbinden.   Im Gespräch mit Matthew und Terces Engelhart erfährst du:   wie du dich mit deiner inneren Stimme verbindest und ihr vertraust, wie du Entscheidungen mit deiner Intuition triffst, wie du Business und Spiritualität zusammenbringen kannst, wie du auch anderen Menschen gut zuhörst und damit deine Beziehungen stärkst, wie du erkennst, ob dein Ego oder dein Higher Self spricht und wie du deinen eigenen Weg mit Dankbarkeit und Anerkennung gehen kannst. Ich wünsche dir viel Freude mit dem Interview und freue mich wie immer auf deine Gedanken auf Instagram: @lauramalinaseiler   Buchtipps und Links: Sacred Commerce https://amzn.to/2KhHWjM I Am Grateful https://amzn.to/2WHULdQ Sweet Gratitude https://amzn.to/2IdhqW5   Alle Infos zu Terces und Matthew findest du hier: http://www.eternal-presence.com https://www.belovefarm.com/ TED Talk mit Terces: http://www.eternal-presence.com/presspage   Rock on & Namasté Deine Laura

“Sacred Commerce is a business built by heart” is the theme of this Women at Work conversation with Cary Mosier of Cafe Gratitude and Gracias Madre. Held at the Rose Tarlow Melrose House showroom in West Hollywood where Mosier shared the heart behind the business along with the triumphs and failures along the way. Cafe Gratitude and Gracias Madre are founded on the unique business principle that we all are connected and that the only real win is the win-win. The business practices of the Mosier family are good for the planet, their employees, their investors and customers all in one. Their concept was to create a work environment that doubled as a school of transformation for their staff as well as their customers. Founded on an experiment to find out: “What will happen if we use the workspace to cultivate the most important human values — such as love, gratitude, connection and trust?” a restaurant revolution was born.

Review of Tower, our plans for the Super Snow Moon and how to make moon water, our idea for a reiki cosplay, our love for Soup Plantation, our drama at TJ Maxx, Gracias Madre v Café Gratitude, yet another plea for a Coca Cola sponsorship, how complicated it is to build the Zoetic Rose boxes, our plans to shop the Rose Bowl Flea Market, the growing number of billionaires and millionaires in the world (including Bernie Sanders), our love for Fleetwood Mac’s The Chain, Trump’s inability to be directed but ability to charm people, how everyone in politics is just a character, the difference between fiction and reality (TV) and how we’re being indoctrinated to conflict, Kate’s experience working in local news, and why Facebook needs to fail.

On today’s show we’re coming at you from our sponsor, The Willows Hotel & Spa at Viejas Casino & Resort, along with vice president of food and beverage David Duran. In Hot Plates, we’re talking about two upcoming events, including the San Diego Bay Wine & Food Festival and the first annual San Diego Food Tank Summit with bold-faced names of the industry (like the president of the San Diego County Farm Bureau and the co-owner of Café Gratitude) discussing how we can responsibly grow our region’s food movement. Plus, Ike’s sandwiches opens in the Midway district, Buona Forchetta opens its first North County location, and Farmer’s Table expands to Bay Park. Also, we talk about a fundraiser to help the cancer-stricken daughter of local beer icon Mike Hess. Our guest is Nica Knite, the owner and operator of Pine House Café & Tavern and the woman behind the revamp of the historic Pine Valley House & Silver Queen Saloon, a 95-year-old boutique resort, restaurant, and bar in Pine Valley, built by the architect Richard Requa (who built most of the California Exposition in Balboa Park). She explains why she’s restoring the scene in her mountain town and everything on her from-scratch menu. We’re also talking about the recent ban on polystyrene foam, a.k.a. Styrofoam, in the city. In Two People/$50, we’re recommending Din Tai Fung, Grains, Maestoso, and The Mission in North Park.

Dita Curgus, is the Founder of Schizandu Organics. She is on a mission to bring truly natural and exceptional products to people to help them cleanse, detoxify and nourish from the inside out and the outside in. Born in Budapest, Hungary, to a home with no computers but all food “made from scratch” and put on the table from market-fresh or home-grown ingredients, she had participated in kitchen activities from very early on and started diving into books researching health-related topics at the age of 11. Her insatiable interest in science, health and longevity, as well as airplanes, led her on a journey to study plants and their healing qualities, all things mechanical, flying, and even looking into the feasibility of putting fuel cells on the latest Boeing models. While there was a time when she thought she would remain a pilot forever, after years of flying, she earned her Bachelor’s in Mechanical Engineering and her Master’s in Aerospace Engineering at UCLA while health-coaching in the evenings and on weekends. Even doing top secret work while an engineer for 5 years has left her with a feeling of void and she ended up getting a Health-Coaching Certificate to make her counseling official. To be efficient in health-counseling she felt too limited to one-on-one sessions and smaller groups and she had a desire to reach a larger crowd to be able to help more people who suffered unnecessarily. Soon after leaving engineering altogether, in January 2016, she founded Schizandu Organics to make her dreams of helping more people and making a difference quicker a reality. Today, she has reached 61,000+ customers across the globe and her products have been the choice of high-end health-food stores, restaurants all over the U.S. and beyond including Café Gratitude, Erewhon, L.A. Press, Menotti’s, Kippy’s Ice Cream, Rooted Juicery, Inscape Meditation Center, Wattle Café, Cathedral Coffee Shop, Bae Little Tokyo Ice Cream Shop, Narwhal’s Crafted Urban Ice, Hot 8 Yoga, Longevity Warehouse, The Shaman Shoppe , Coha Health Complimentary Medicine of Bermuda and many others.  AND, Schizandu is the proud sponsor of this episode!

Today, I have the pleasure of speaking with a very special guest, international spokesperson for personal transformation and weight loss, Frank Ferrante. Featured in two major documentaries including May I Be Frank? and Hungry For Change, Frank’s resume is extensive. From an illegal narcotics distributor, a cab driver, and a general contractor to an actor, recovered alcoholic junkie, and a vegan raw foodist, Frank has had quite the journey to get where he is now and today he shares some of the lessons he learned on his journey to physical and spiritual healing.After thirty years involved with drugs and alcohol, Frank finally reached a point where he could no longer live the way he was living, but he couldn’t see a way out. He surrendered himself to God and started a 12-step program. But even when he quit drugs and alcohol, he found problems with sex and overeating. Frank found that, even when he was sober, the underlying pain that caused him to seek drugs in the first place still remained.At 300 pounds, Frank had isolated himself from those he cared about because he didn’t care about himself. After stumbling in to Café Gratitude, a raw-food restaurant, he embarked on a life-changing journey of weight loss and transformation over 42 days. Again, Frank surrendered to God and signed a contract with the owners of the restaurant that he would commit to a raw food diet, daily affirmations, and weekly colonics.After just a week and a half, Frank felt a shift in himself. He turned his personal pain into personal power by stumbling into grace. What once seemed insurmountable was within his grasp because he had help. With help from others, he recognized that he was not alone and that it was not food or drugs that were the problem, but instead his relationship to himself and to food ad drugs that needed to change.Today, Frank works to help others realize their potential for change and works to cultivate humility within himself daily. He now helps others to realize that they are not incomplete and that they need only to nurture themselves to blossom into who they were meant to be. Achieving balance in all things is key to a more present life.If you would like to reach out to Frank, you can get in touch with him at info@mayIspeakFrankly.comLISTEN TO THE PODCAST  WATCH THE PODCAST   RESOURCESFood MattersMay I Be Frank?Hungry For ChangeKris Carr
