GEORGE: And welcome back to one of those crazy free for all Fridays where I rip the intros off the top of my head. But today I feel like I have my brother from another mother from another country where balded brothers, we love cold therapy. I have meet someone with a crazier story than mine, but one of the biggest hearts in the world. And so today I'm excited to have my dear friend. The guy who literally has more stories than the hundreds of books that I read every year, but really is dedicated to changing the world by changing his own life first and giving away those gifts. Everything from health to mindset, to movement, to absolutely every modality that you can think of to helping humanity be a better person. And most recently, something that I started wearing where I don't have to swallow my vitamins anymore. I just slapped them on my skin. So I am excited to have my dear friend and brother Shane. Welcome to the show, my friend. SHANE: My friend. It's good to see you, dude. GEORGE: It's always good to see you. I always get to see you. I'm afraid to come visit you up in the North because I control my ice bath, but you got other variables up there and I know we'd get in, we would get there and we're going to talk about that for sure. But I do get a set context and this is one of the most important questions I ask. And it's something that I feel like you have an entire multitude of generational experience with given the industries you've been in from the nightclub industry, to the health industry, to running a clinic and a physical business and everything in between. And so my question that I ask everybody is when you look back, when you reflect on where you came from, what was one of the biggest mistakes that you made in business? What's the lesson that you learned and how do you carry that forward now where you are looking back on the past SHANE: easiest question for me. Impatience. You're going to take, I've made, as in patients, I have race. I am a fast thinker, a fast talker, a fast mover. I love fast. I hate fast. I get angry, fast. I get joyous, fast, everything. Everything is fast with me. Even rehab was fast for me. I was like, I'm 30 days out. Okay new career. Let's go. It wasn't a year long kumbaya, so impatience hands down 100% in anything that I've done, that I've failed on, I've gone too fast or expected too much too soon for too little initiative, too little input and so patience is what I've had to learn over the years, which is still a challenge every day. and how have I implemented that. No, I have to, I walk away from a lot of stuff now. So I've learned, we talked a little bit about cold therapy and a little bit about mindset and motive. Like you just mentioned that in the intro, what I've learned the most is for me, I need to distance myself from the issue at hand to get perspective on the issue, because the issue that I use when see that has to get done fixed. Is one step in the process. And I actually learned that at school, by the way, because when I went to school to become a certified nutritional practitioner, our mantra is treat the whole person, not just the symptoms, which means there's a myriad of issues or is it the theology of visions? It's not the headache. That's the symptom. That's the problem that you're feeling, but what's causing that headache. we've gotta do the pathology of it all the way down. It could be liver, kidney distress. It could be a hundred things. It could be stress, it could be anxiety. It could be gut digestive imbalance. It can be bacterial amounts. It could be a thousand things. We have to do the pathology of it. So for me, patients, a hundred percent, impatience has always left me in a bad place. and then to process that now it's a hundred percent step away. Get out of the micro for a minute, look at the macro. Is that the only problem is that a descendant of a problem it's a systemic problem. Is it relating to other issues? And then, just get back in and work. GEORGE: I'll start, at the scratch man, scratch the itch. my parents they're awesome human beings. They're entrepreneurs, provided a middle of the way upper-class I don't know what the standard. I don't know what categories that I knew my parents were entrepreneurs and they did well. I had a car at 16, I guess I'm privileged. I, they earned everything. Then nothing was handed to them. they set my brother and I up for success. There's no doubt with more, I would say actionable tools than just, steering us with wealth. My dad had us working in the warehouse at 13. 12, actually a sweeping floors and forklift operator. And then as we got a little older, we went into the office and we worked as an assistant to the purchaser. And then we worked in accounting and we worked in receivables and payables, and I worked at the reception desk for a summer. I was a receptionist, and that was like probably 15 or 16 when all my friends were like, starting to be bar backs and working in the, what we thought were the cool businesses. The late night stuff, I was working 9 to 5 in the summers. And then after schools. my mom would drive us to the office. We'd get done school around 2:45 and I worked on six and it wasn't hard. I love my family. My brother was there all the time. so that's the simple basics of like where I come from working I'm Canadian, for the followers and viewers that don't know. and we're not much different. as much as it is colder here, but only seasonally. an entrepreneurial middle of the road family that was extremely tight, like our dinner, we used to call my dad's company, Calico our third brother. Because it was a family member, like at dinner we didn't talk about, Oh, how was your day? did you see what did? And at the job site, in Toledo, Ohio today, jeez Murphy, I can't believe that happened, So that was our family dynamics. So I was brought up in business, which is the best lesson I could have gone to pick your Harvard finishing school or business school.I wouldn't have learned one 10th of what I learned working with real people and real scenarios and real problem solving. I worked in paint shops. Our family business was automotive sector. we did quality control and assembly plants, and a lot of cleaning. And, PR and production line maintenance. So we were in charge of the quality of the paint jobs on all the Chrysler, Ford, GM Audi, Porsche, several different BMW, South Carolina globally. and I worked in Detroit, Michigan for a long time, and I did sales all across the us. And I was Southeast business development representative at a time, when I was in college and I got to work along, hardworking, real working people.So this is labor. This is not, it wasn't an office tower. It wasn't like I went into the suit whenever I was working in a shutdown, we go in for two weeks and we called queen 2 million square feet of space. And it's four stories tall, and we have to wipe every surface and clean every surface, horizontals verticals, every robotic mechanism, water blast, all the greats, clean, all the sleuth ways, deep, clean, wet, and dry, clean, every single oven, which are 700 feet long. And there's six of them. And you do that with a shop vac and you do that with a rack. So this is labor intensive. So we're not dealing with, probably some of the smartest people I meet, but not what society deems smart. They didn't wear a suit and tie and didn't go to Wharton finishing business school. but they all came up in the ranks and I'm fortunate that in that business, my dad was an extremely good boss and he was a father. So there's a lot of these guys and it was a male dominated industry. A lot of these guys were disenfranchised. And I learned that a long time as I was growing up, like they were from rougher upbringings. They were, the guys that needed to get a job. That's it? Like they, they were on the road for six months of the year. that's not usually somebody's choice, cleaning paint shops. That's not Hey, what are you gonna do for this? I want to clean paint shop. You know what I mean? and it's not, I want it to kids. Don't say that they say Superman or doctor or lawyer or a police officer or firefighter, whatever paint shops didn't come up.But what I learned from these guys watching them with my dad is a couple important lessons and I'll jump into my whole lineage. is treat everybody equally, treat everybody with respect and be upfront and authentic at all times and that is what I saw with my dad. And these guys became a subsect of a family to us, like my brother who bought my dad's business outright about eight years ago, from my dad there, my dad's retired now and his right-hand guy started with my dad at 18. The CFO started my dad when he was 23. ,most of the senior management started on the floor. They moved up in the business. So you don't see that in a lot of companies now. So when I, so we go to the patience thing, that's my first category of patientce. Is I'm going to look at the global of this, the macro, these guys that started with my dad, didn't jump at every opportunity. Didn't go to every other company, every other I'll give you five grand more a year to come work here. They were patience because they had value in what they were doing and who they were working for. And we don't see that a lot in our industry today. People jump for nonsense. People don't stick it out. They don't work through the rough times, which means they lose the ability to learn how to solve problems and manage crisis. And that's a big factor. So I've learned a ton just from 12 to 21 working for my dad. And that being able to observe that business grow, as my brother has taken it from what it was doing to what it's doing now, which is an extremely. International global. He's I believe the second largest industrial services company, in the country or at least in definitely in Canada. maybe in the world that isn't a publicly owned operated company. We're still private, but he's still a private business. Yep. What he has done is exceptional and I've also learned from him. He started at 12 he's 47. He didn't, he could have cashed out, sold out. He's got offers. I'm sure he's got an exit strategy in his books, but he also is stuck with things. So patience is also sticking with it, right? We have knowledge that.And then my next phase is, and this is kinda, I like telling this story because my brother and I are extremely close. I was already in the nightclub scene a little bit. I was a little bit of a Playboy. And I don't mean Playboy like that way. I was out, I liked the social life. My brother was more of an introvert. I'm an extrovert. And, at about, we were allowed to drink at 19 here in Canada. So I'm an 18 in Montrel, but 19 here. So about 1920, I started going downtown Toronto to these clubs. And that's when you're that age, it's like a whole different world, right? It's you're going into Gotham. If you're from a suburb it's yeah this is so big to you. now it seems like it's a fish tank to me whenever I look at it now, because I've traveled the world. But at the time it was like, Oh my God, there's so many places to go. And I loved it, man. And I used to throw, all through high school parties that I just did because I loved throwing parties. I liked being the center of attention to be truthful and the kid that threw the biggest, cause I was party was the center of attention on Monday at school, so I used to throw them on my dad's warehouse actually. And have we literally had my well funny story, my dad was on his way to Boston for a meeting, and he saw a flyer on a light post for a warehouse party that was a BYOB that was basically a rave. We had scaffolding set up in the warehouse, so my dad would take off on Friday afternoon, Friday night. I would have friends come in, set up the warehouse with scaffolding, a hundred thousand square foot warehouse. There's at least 80,000 scaffolding and all the corners. We went to local strip clubs and hired the strippers, but not the strip to be go dancers and they would come in and dance on the scaffolding. Then we would set up an 18 Wheeler truck we'd back it in, we'd put a band up or a DJ up. And then I had a, unsavory motorcycle club do security for me. I won't drop any names, but the big one. Okay. support 81 is what a lot of people will know before. they would come in and do securityfor us and people would show up, they would check their booze at a bar that we set up, and which was actually made out of an inverted swing stage. We would put their beer behind their liquor, behind them. We give them tickets and they come back with the tickets and we have these parties. It was 10 bucks guys, seven bucks girls. And we used to put, 2000 people in this space, 2000, 3000 people. Led light show, laser show, all of that good stuff. There wasn't that we used back then it was laser lights and the old, like the spotlights, the scabbard. So my dad was on his way to Boston and saw a flyer for three 44 new perk road, which was the address, the thing.And he turned around and went back to the warehouse. And I was in the backyard, he setting up and he literally looked at me and this is the relationship I have with my dad. He looked at me, he said, what are you doing? He goes, do you understand the liability? You're putting me in? He goes are you out of your fucking mind? Like he was just beside himself. And I'm like, dad, I go, I've been doing this for six months, every once a month. And he's, I don't give a shit like you could have, I could lose a business you could. And he was right. Except he had taught me business. So when he didn't know, as he said, I said, dad, this is happening tomorrow.You call the cops, but it's that you're going to have 2000 people on the street. And he said, there's only one way we can figure this out. He said do you have a party permit of Firebird? Do you have insurance? if you don't have any of these things, it's getting shut down and he didn't expect me to happen. And I did, I had, I had the fire department come in and do a fire inspection for occupancy, for private venue parties. So we had a license for a party permit for that night. And I had some insurance on the building that separated my dad under a lawyer I forget the name of the company now. I think it was, better days productions. Might've been better days, but we had an insurance policy that had us like $3 million liability. So he looked at all the paper and he's Jesus, like you little prick, so I threw that part that was the last one though. And, that kinda got me into things.So as I fast forward, I was already in that scene a little bit and started going to nightclubs. And I really loved it. My brother, who was my brother and I were my dad was starting a separate business, which is the business of today. And, he, I had a piece of it. My brother had a piece of it and my dad had a piece of it and it was all of ours but Clip and him were partners, but I was involved. And I remember looking at my brother saying like this isn't, I don't like this.What do you mean? And he's you've got, you're making more money than 30 year old, like you have a life path here. Are you an idiot? I'm like, I don't think I want to do this anymore. I'm going to go up in a nightclub. And he looked at me. He said, you're out of your mind, that's the largest failure rate. And I said, look, point, I don't want anything from the company. I don't want anything from it at all. I don't deserve anything. You guys are building it, but do me a favor. Can you keep me on payroll while I go out and explore this? And because I don't want any value for leaving the business as an owner or whatever, will you back my play with that whenever I need to figure out the finance .And he made me do actually killed my brother. He's I got your back, bro. You're my little brother, whatever you want to do it, like you're an idiot, but go ahead and do it. So I went out and, the story of how I got my first nightclub, I was a VIP host at a place in Toronto, which means I was nothing. basically I would still the VIP and I would get free booze, but I was treated like when I was introduced around town as an owner.And, it was a place called casino lounge and people thought I owned a piece of it. And that gave me at 20 years old cloud. Like I was a big shot. I was an owner of the club and I wasn't, But, there was the, I don't know if you remember the movie. I think it was called drive. And so that's just a little, They filmed the closing scene there. And I wasn't aware of that as I brought down my two limo buses full of people for the night. So I had 40 people coming into the VIP on my name and I pull up and Jesse who was a legitimate owner and a friend of mine, who introduced me to this space and brought me in as a host, whatever, he looked at me and he's what are you doing here? I'm like, Yeah, I guess for the night, when you want them to do it again. And he said, Shane, he goes well, because it was private it's, we're filming the swimming, the movie. And I said, based on that, he jokes, he was like, do you want to meet Slyvester Stallone I'm like, yeah. Yeah. I forgot the people for a minute. I do. So when said hi, and that was neat. but I want, you said, look, go to this club. It's called insight. There's a guy at the front door. He's still a friend of mine, by the way, his name's Blake. He goes, tell Blake that you're one of the owners here and. Tell them that you'd like them to comp all of our, for your 40 guests and we'll do a deal with them. Their staff will come over and drink. We'll pay them a check at the end of the week, whatever, like just run a tab and we'll take care of handshake. Did this happen to clubs at the time staff get taken care of back and forth. So I will roll up in this limo bus and I get out all sauntered up.I think I'm like some big shot and I walk up to you Blake. And he's yeah. And you understand I'm 5'5, and I didn't have any of this. And I'm a little scrawny kid. and Blake's, 6'2, it looks like John Ciena, And he really is.That could look. of a guy. He's a sweetheart of a guy too.And he, he turns to me, he goes, the alcohol do for it. I'm like, Hey Blake, I'm Shane. I'm the owner of one of the owners casino lounge. Can I, can I slide in, I got 40 people and we're going to take over your VIP for the night. If that's cool, run up a huge tab and casino going to pay the bill. And he looked me dead in the eye and he said, you're a host. You don't have the authority to do this. It is no not happening. And that was in front of people. I was humiliated, bro. And he didn't and he didn't yell it. He wasn't disrespectful. He was honest actually. I wasn't an owner. Jesse told me to swing by, but I did, I have a credit card from casino lounge to prepaid the bill, like I, I didn't, even though it was, a handshake.So I turned around and I sent the bus home and when the buses pulled away, it's like a movie shot, man. There was a restaurant across the road that was called mr. Pongs Chinese food, a little two-story building two and a half story, looked like a semi-detached squeezed between two big office towers and it had a for sale sign on it. I turned around to Blake and I said, you know what? You did do your job, but you're going to regret it because they're going to work for me one day and he laughed. He goes, yeah, I heard that a thousand fucking times household type thing. I went across the road and I went into the place and I said, who's the owner? Is there an owner here? And this guy comes out of the kitchen. His name is Lake pong. And he says, I'm the owner? I said, so your building's for sale? How much do you want for him? And he gave me a number. And, I remember calling my dad and it's now about midnight. And I said dad.I think I found a building for my club and he's like, how much they want? I said how much it was. And he says, you don't have the equity. I said, I can find the money, I can always, I can, I know people that will lend money, even if it's high rate, he goes, the only way you're going to pull this off kid is if you get it for this price cause you need this much for construction minimum.So basically the price of the building was here. I needed to cut it in half to be able to do both parts of the segment. And the late Pong, looked at me and gave me the number I went back in. I offered them all cash deal. I had half the value of what he was asking. What I didn't know about Mr. Pong was he's being sent to jail the next month. And he was liquidating assets because he had an illegal arms deal. So I didn't know that he was desperate to sell. He had to sell. So he accepted the offer. So I turned around and about two in the morning or three in the morning, I had a building on Richmond street in Toronto, which was the Club PortalGEORGE: I think that's hilarious. Didn't you include your friends Harley in the deal?SHANE: So Jimmy Williams, who own the limo company. that I was, I used for the nightclubs and everything else. And, Jimmy, I had the Harley there, and he liked the Harley and he's what's the deal with that? And I'm like, why you want it? And he's it's a deal. If you throw that in, I'm like done. Gil started. I remember calling Jimmy. He was like, Hey, how did it go? How did Jimmy talk like this? I, Jimmy had this tough Greek guy, he goes, Hey, shader, he actually used to call me tiger. And I won't explain why. because it's derogatory. He goes, Hey, tiger, how'd it go? How'd it go? And I'm like one good buddy. I got the building goes, that's fucking great because I don't know, fucking clap. Beautiful. And I said, bad news. I owe you Harley, GEORGE: What I love about this? and I've heard the story and I laugh every time and I love it. Like you basically. You take what you talked about in the beginning, you invest in people. You've always loved people. You learned the value of like hard work and principles and people and staying long time and like you've leveraged relationships and absolutely everything that you do. Like you are the master at relationships. Like every time I'm sitting with you, you're like, Oh, I'll reach out to them. I know them. I have them it's relationships. And so you get this building and then you literally turn around and go from Chinese restaurant to becoming one of the biggest nightclubs in Toronto SHANE: Therapy wasn't. Therapy lounge was my baby that was my first one. If there was only a 666 capacity, but it was the only club on the street that was a lounge. I love the idea of sultry and sexy, Lavender and mahogany. not laminate, the bar was made. The bar was a $200,000 bar. I didn't know anything about design by the way. I'm an idiot. I should have spent $6,000 on a plywood construction laminated it of the total Reiki. I didn't understand designers. I have dreams. And then, so I blew my budget, but, it was the most greatest place. And I did leverage and you're absolutely right. I had a friend of mine, Dave JanCoulis, who was, just left red, just left rockstar energy, drinks. They got bought by Pepsi, I believe, or somebody they just sold. He was the president of rockstar Canada for many years long before that he got a bar in Oshawa. And I was good friends with them and I'm like, dude, I'm going to buy a club. You're going to be my manager. You're an old friend. I trust you,Dave ironically, didn't take the job. But he had committed to it. And as a commitment president, I took him to Mardi Gras with a bunch of other guys. We had a crazy wild week down there and, that was like a signing bonus. And, that was one of the trips. There was many to Mardi Gras. That was my Vegas. You can keep Vegas, Mardi Gras was Vegas gamble with your life. Now with your money. I used to say, So anyways, Dave came back as like Shannon over really want to take the job. I think I scared of maybe Mardi Gras. I'm not sure he saw some signs of me, probably hadn't seen. And, but he did find me another amazing guy and, and Craig and Adrian, and he brought two other people. So an old friend, not just an applicant couldn't come through, but didn't leave the space empty. Yeah. And then I brought on, I brought, I had a great team. So therapy lounge was by far my proudest thing. And then from that I had money nightclub, which was the largest nightclub, next to RPM, which was Charles caboose, which became the government, which was four clubs in one space. And I think they did about 15,000 people a night. We did S we did 8,000. So in Toronto, we were the second largest club. But I was the only person that owned my properties. That was the big difference. I leveraged my buyingproperties around me and then I reconverted them or else I took over. Money I called existed before me. I can't see, I created it. I don't want to take credit for my club was another person's club. And I acquired it, through, through a certain way. I won't discuss that here because it's not the right way to talk about things. ut I think I had to throw a little nefarious method, shall we say? but I ended up getting it and I wanted it and I did it because I didn't like the guy that owned it by the way. Yeah. I wouldn't do that. Good person. But, so fast forwarding, cause I don't want to take up all of our time on that, nightclubs. I ended up having them and I, what I did know, and I'm gonna be real honest with your audience because I don't want to blow this story up as Oh what a cool life. I didn't know that I was miserable. That's the sad part George. Is I had developed somewhere along the line, probably in my early adolescence, a self-esteem self-worth issue. So the reason I threw parties and I did all that shit for the attention was to fill, just the top of my needs. And I would just fill in just a little bit, just you think of a glass and it's draining out.I would just getting enough to keep the bottom with a little fluid. I never filled my cup. Always a little bit more, a little bit more, a little bit more. I never sealed the problem of this lack of self worth and lack of integrity or self-esteem. And I started drinking more and I started using more. I was doing an eight ball of Coke a day, from 19 years old until I quit. And, that's 20 years and, yeah, 18 years and I was drinking excessively. Like we, we drink a lot in Canada. It's well known around the world, Canadians and Australians compounding back. And I was at the top. I would be in a heavyweight fighter if there was a, if there was a competition for on my 30th birthday, I think it was like 40 drinks. 36 and 38 drinks. So I was masking that and then I didn't develop good quality when you're intoxicated and you're living in a false reality and you are sitting there, everybody is looking at you for something and you already have a self-esteem self-worth problem.You compensate by making every field, they got something and it's shallow and hollow and it's not authentic, which leaves you more void. Yep. So you keep giving this false person the way I explain it to people that makes a lot of sense is I was a Broadway performer or a stage actor, except I didn't finish the stage. So when you see an actor, they get into character, they create a new perversion of themselves to give to an audience, to entertain people. And they go on and they do their show and then they come off and they wipe the makeup off and get industry clothes and they go home that character of Shane club owner slowly got more and more where it was 24 hour consumed by.I was, I didn't communicate with my girlfriends, loved them, all, never cheated on a woman in my life, but I wasn't a good boyfriend because I wasn't there. I was always void. I was distant. I was, I didn't like me, dude. That's a simple trip in like who I was. If you don't like yourself, you're pretty fucked.GEORGE: Yeah, totally. When, like what it sounds like, and you and I have very similar stories, it becomes all in golfing than everything's an act. You have no time down. And then you're just like running and then the threshold gets higher and you have to increase the intensity. You have to do bigger parties. You have to do more lavish things to get attention. Like the, all of it changes. you were. You were like hiring private jets at 17, literally throwing parties that celebrities would come find you out. Like you have more crazy stories than anybody I know, but it just seems like it was like, you would have to find another level to the gas pedal.SHANE: That's exactly it. I remember, I'll tell this one story. I don't want to name drop because it's cheesy. but this one I think was, is So when you speak about Jetson stuff, yeah, we would, I would charter planes, to go to Mardi Gras. Like I would take my whole staff and be like I'm having a good party myself at my club and I love Mardi Gras and I'm like, guys, let's go to Mardi Gras, fuck it up.And literally take the whole team down. And, and it was the top floor of the force of the, the Ritz Carlton. And, we had there's so the top floor of the Ritz-Carlton in new Orleans, I don't know if it still is like this, but when you get to the governor's suite and the chairman suite financials, The elevator goes up and there's a door from one side and the door on the other. It's the whole side of the floor. So you got one side or you at one side you're overlooking the park. Are you overlooking downtown new Orleans or the river? or downtown new Orleans and. The, at the very end of these rooms, there's a little balcony that overlooks and then cool that you share a rooftop pool. That's got like a barn thing, brought everybody down and we're having a bang up time. And I wanted to throw the biggest party in this hotel. So and it's Mardi Grass. They let everything go. So I went down to the front desk. First thing I did is one of my, when my guests all got down and I'm like, all right, guys.And I had friends on lower floors that were staying in actual rooms. Like I, it was. I won't give the bar the hotel tab, but it was extremely large. I remember calling my brother saying I matched the card again. And he goes, you did that yesterday. I go, there's a check in my desk drawer. Can you drop it to the bank and pay it? So my credit card clears up and we're talking like a $20,000 limit. Yeah. It's 20 grand a day. Taking care of everyone. And my brother was like, you're out of your fucking mind. You're an idiot. what are you doing? And I'm like having a good Mardi Grass, So I was down there. So I was, I said to all my friends, soon as they get down on my, and my team members and I'd give everybody, give me your watch. And she was like, why? give me your, watch us while at the safe deposit box in the room, through the Washington, why are you doing that? I said, because time doesn't exist here, you drink til you pass out, you wake back up, you drink, you pass out. That's your time. There is no call by we're clock here. You might wake up at three in the morning from passing out at 6:00 PM the night before, and you start you'll find one of us.One of us will be out there. Find us, call us. And so is this great thing. And then the next thing that happened is I went down to the front desk and I got 200 room key coats. And I went up to all my friends and I said, every girl that raises her blouse, give her a key to the cart, keep the hotel and tell her there's a party here.Saturday night at 8:00 PM. I hired a jazz band. Hired bartenders, had the whole place set up at 8:00 PM, 800 people on the, on that deck patio. Band playing tequila, rye, Jaeger, Meister, frigging fender, right? Like I literally stood on the balcony that overlooked the pool off the bedroom. I've told you this part is fucking biblical because it was the part, it was the unknown party in Mardi Grass. Like it was like a speakeasy in Mardi Gras. That's impossible to pull off. You had to have a key to get in and it was just Epic, dude. It was just Epic. And I'm sitting there and I still am. I'm still finding these memories, even though I think they're so shallow and pointless. And then, I get a knock on the door and I figure it's police.So I opened the door and it's a guy with long hair and he's got like a door and he's got glasses on and he leans in and raspy voice goes, yo man, the fuck you got going on here. And I'm like, having a party, dude, you gotta keys. Like I don't gotta keep him in the room across the hall. I'm like, Oh, it's going to go late, bro. I hope you're not calling to complain. I'm looking at them and I'm recognizing them, but I don't know where I recognize them from, but I'm like, how do I know you? We meet and you gotta understand I'm gassed, I'm high and drunk. I'm thinking what? Guy's got like a Ferdy color on big glasses, gold chain. I'm like who the fuck? And he looks at me and this is now. I'm gonna tell you who he is. You guys remember the song cowboy? I'm a cow boy it's Kid Rock. .It's Bob Richie. So I'm sitting there and, and that was his only popular song at the time. So it was like, he was just starting out. So I'm like, Hey, you're the cowboy, you're the cowboy. That's moving to the West coast guide. He's yeah, man. I'm Bob Richie. And I'm like, Hey, nice to meet you really appreciate meeting you. And he's Hey man, can me and my girl come in. I'm like, absolutely. I'd love to have you over. Sorry. I think somebody here. Sorry. I just, I'm hearing noises in my kitchen. I'm wondering if an animal get in thereGEORGE: it's all the stories of the past camera. Hey reminder, you ever go?SHANE: Yeah. Yeah. So actually I, for short, Bobby comes in, we have a crazy party, three days him and I didn't leave the master bedroom. GEORGE: so like you, you said something and I think this is really important. You're like, I love the stories, no matter how shallow they are, but like one of the reasons, I think your story. And your past is so impactful is because some people have played on the extreme level, but like you played on a level and created a level that didn't exist for people. And. I think it serves as a perfect juxtaposition for what you stand in and believe in now, like you don't have shame about the past. You have knowledge looking back, but when I hear you now, the guy that literally coaches people, you help people find their meaning and their path and their values and their worth. And I'm talking to everybody from the top A-listers of the A-listers down to me and our friends and everybody. I think one of your gifts is that range that you've experienced. when you talk about it, I want everybody to understand that, like I know Shane and his heart and those things are perfect experiences to stand for what you do now and how you do it and what you believe in and who you stand for. And what I think is so remarkable, in my experience, like I'm a pretty extreme person, but I can't even get to your level, but it felt like the opposite wasn't even possible for me. Like I was living in such this like chasing another level of dopamine, skydiving, more jumping, more crazy dopamine, like distraction, performing this person. And then, I had a family and I lost it all and I ended up almost bankrupt and ended up alone and, in some dark areas. And those times I was like, I couldn't even exist here. And I imagine, when you were like the nightclub things exploded, all this is going, you got to a point where you felt that inside you're like this, isn't it like I'm empty. There's nothing thereSHANE: I call it the tears after the beers. I've talked with this one. I sold all my own nightclubs solved. That's the funny story, Kid Rock. We're good with all my party and everybody gets the idea.And, and then I sold my nightclubs at 34 35 ago. And. I built this idea and this character for so long that once that was gone, I had no idea who I was. and it was, and I didn't have the access and all of a sudden, by the way, people didn't give a shit. Because I didn't have, I had personal access cause I had colleagues, but all of a sudden I was living in my really nice home in suburb, on summered, Ontario with the boat downtown and. It just, it, this person, I didn't know who the fuck had wants to. And then I used to start, I hung around this unsavory group up there and it was just, local pub drink till last call, come back to my house to blow for horrible existence.For two years, I was depressed, not knowing, but I call it the tears off the beers because eventually the party always ends. Yeah and whatever, and this is the same with anything, your followers, your viewers, or anybody is listening too. If you push away your issues, you're just giving them a bigger levy to break on you. You're building another issue onto the issue on the issue. It's just how it works. If you don't, if you don't eat slowly, every problem you have take them and digest them and then shit it out. Literally get rid of it by going through the process, then you're going to leave yourself to disaster.And I had built 20 years, 20 years of issues that I had neglected. And one night sitting on my couch, I'm just in tears. Everybody had gone my house, melt the cigarettes and booze, and I couldn't sleep because I'd been up for two days on Coke and. the house was a mess. and I looked around, I remember vividly man. I was sitting on my couch and I'm just bawling. And I think CSI Miami was on TV or something. One of the right grand nanny shows or law and order SVU on USA networks or whatever. And I was just like looking at TV, mindlessly, zombie stupid. I couldn't make meetings. Nobody really cared. I had a girlfriend who was passed out upstairs high as a kite to, And it was just fucking horrible. And that wasn't enough because this is, I went through that for two years, every Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday night cause I used every day almost. So it was the same cycle. So what happens is you sit there in your fog feeling like shit. And then you wake up the next day and the fog is still there.You don't feel like shit because the physical crap takes over where your body is decimated from the abuse you did. And you, the only way to heal that abuse is to go use again. So you do, and then by the end of the night, you remember that you feel like shit mentally, because you've used all these drugs that open up that portal in the brain that after everybody's gone, it goes, Oh yeah, I'm a piece of shit. And it compounds and then you feel worse. You do more worse, you do more words and you do more worse. And then my story of revelation, is, was in Greece when I was 37.Long story short. I landed in Greece with a girl that I wanted to date and I want to do impress her. So I took her to Greece and I showed up like Shane Griffin in those days showed up douchebags, schmuck, Lopers suit, Gucci glasses, whatever you want to say. Just pick your picture, your biggest kind of Miami looking douchebag.I do now, this is, I got dressed up for you. I put on a long sleeve with flip flops. But, so anyways, I got there and the one thing that this girl said to me, and she was quite an angel and I mean that with all sincerity, she said, Shane, I know that you drink and all you have fun. Please don't drink and drive in the village where my family's at. It's very similar and she wasn't staying in my hotel. She wanted to know propriety, no image that we were together. She's you're my friend. You're here as my friend, I'm giving you a tour. And I took her on the trip. that's a given.But she made it clear that this was not a PR this was not a Quid pro quo. You know what I mean? It wasn't, that she's I appreciate your kindness and I'll have a great time and I'll show you the best parts of Greece. And that's what you're getting for this. You're getting a private tour guy.I expected more because I was doucebag and thought women were acquired and they were required through impressing them through money. So that's where I was at that time of life. Anyways, second night there, I'd rented a, a, AMG Mercedes, GT. Yeah. And, and I left drunk, short version. I left drunk. I wrote the car off. I fractured my broke my nose fractured my orbital fractured three ribs. I was, this side of my face was mangled and I was coughing up blood and it was not good. And the next morning she kicked in the door, the hotel was like, what the fuck happened? Like your, the car's wrapped. And I'm like, and I don't know why I said this, but I was still drunk and probably in shock. and I said, I got carjacked by Albanians and she laughed a little kind of, because knowing me that was, I'm from a dead sleep, stuck to a pillow with blood on my face. And she's you're such an asshole. Like just, you're such, you're like Shane, I watched you wreck the car. The quad was an outdoor club. You drove around the back of the club and put it off the road where the whole club could see, like we saw the headlights go off the road and then back onto a service road so long and short, she on that trip said I'm out. I think you're a great guy, Shane, I'm not invested enough into this. I'm not putting myself at risk and I'm leaving. I'm not taking the restaurant. I'm gonna stay with my family. I'll grab my cell phone. Of course I said, your bitch. You're not, fucking use me for a first-class ticket or a private jet or wherever the hell we got there and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and all that other shit. And I remember leaving after I said all those things too. And I felt just shifted. I'm like, that's not you, man. That's not you. You're not that guy. You're not that guy, but I was that guy. I didn't want to be that guy, but I was that guy.So I spent a week, by myself healing at this salt Lake water thing that I found. And then I went on Mykonos. And when I was in Mykonos, the short version there, I'll practice up a little bit. We know it's the nightclub business. I was involved in film festivals. I meet a lot of celebrities. Okay. Guys, one celebrity particularly told me how to cook, how to call him if I ever saw him again, I never expected to see the celebrity ever again in my life because when you run into this guy, I'm in the hotel room and I hear this voice now, do you understand these were villas that were staggered and each woman there was a Bush and then a hot tub and then bush in a hot tub. And they all looked over the sea, and I'm sitting on the, I'm sitting in the hot tub and I hear this voice. It sounds awful. We're going to do a, it's this talk Hey, and I'm like, fuck, I know that voice. So I go, Bobby. And I hear, Hey, who's that right? So I go, Bobby, it's Shane Griffin. He goes, come on in the hallway. I don't know who you are. So for the folks that don't know, Robert de Niro goes by Bobby, if you're his friend.So I come out in the hallway and I'm like Bobby and Shane, he looks at me, he goes, I don't fucking know you. And I'm like, Toronto, you did the film festival party. You opened the club. Are you open to your media at the thing goes, Hey, trouble up fucking what movie was that? And I told them the movie, I forget it now. I think it was, I think it was the Meet the Fuckers or something like that. Anyways. it was cool. Oh, the Brooklyn club, it's a purple club. banged up, type thing. I'm like, yeah, I'm banged up a little bit. I said, what are you doing for dinner? He goes, Oh, I'm just going to go out. He's by himself. I'm by myself. We went to dinner and at dinner, this is when the epiphany happened. I'm a big fan of celebrities. I don't like that everybody shits on them because I know a lot of them and they're just as human as you and I, and opinion, and I have an opinion and they're allowed to have an opinion. No, they're not. they're less unattached. They're actually more dialed into the issues. And most of the people I know on the offense, because they deal with a whole different category of issues. and I know that intimately, that's why. I won't speak any more on that. but I have a lot of respect. I'm always fascinated with people that have excelled in a career that millions of other people are selling. I want to know the best firefighter in the world to buy. How did you get better than everyone in business? In spiritual advice? Everything. When somebody is the elite, the best UFC fighter, whoever's hold the belt. What separates you? Fascinates me. So actors and musicians do. We're at dinner. And he literally looked at me and goes, so what happened? I said, ah, this girl, I took her out and, I took her here and then I wrecked the car and the bond, she's a bitch. And this and that he's, I don't know. I don't know if she's a fucking bitch. I don't know if I'd say that it was like, you fucking wrecked the car shame, And I said, and say, anyways, he goes, cause Shanne, this was the most pointed thing was ever said to me. And, and I actually have permission to say this, He said, chin, can I be honest with you? I said, yeah, that's my best part, DeNiro people. so he's got to be honest with us and he goes, I reckon stories for a living. I tell stories for a living. I direct stories for a living. I'm a fucking storyteller. Your life is amazing. You got a great fucking story, but we could never produce it in Hollywood.And I said, why? cause we don't make movies with bad endings. And he literally said, maybe you need some help. And I said, you think I need to go to rehab. He says, I don't think it'd be a bad fucking thing. it's not going to fucking hurt you. The bars will still be there when you get out, if you don't like it, And, that was the first moment I ever thought about going to rehab. And then. I just, I embraced it. I got home and I had some help getting there, acknowledged my brother who was the final push for me. I'd been thinking about it for two months. And Clint was the one that basically sat me down and was like, Hey man, I heard you're thinking about going there's plane at the airport.It's fueled. And it's going to California. We honor. You can not, I'm never bringing this up again. Yep. Type thing. And that was it. That's how it was laid out to me. He's I'll never bring it up to you again, I don't fucking care if you go or you don't care. You're a big boy. He said, but, I have arranged a place for you and you can go or not. There was no ultimatum. There was no, you're not going to be in our family anymore. There was no martial law. They were just like, you're a big boy. If you think you've got a fucking problem, you probably have a fucking problem kid. And I said, you're so right. And, I got on a plane. And I went and, and I loved that.I went to a place called passages. it is a highfalutin Malibu place, people, so yeah, privileged, spent a lot of money to be there. but they were a non 12 step. My brother picked that specifically because he didn't think that I could submit to it higher power, which he was. Yeah. and that's not to say that I don't believe in anything that you want to believe in. For me, not a religious guy, not the 12 step is based in religion, but it does submit to a higher power and I've just always believed I'm I'm, I manifest my own destiny. I can create my own luck and I create my own bad luck too. And I didn't want to be reliant on, on, a person that if I didn't get in call in touch with them when I was having a tough moment, like a sponsor, but I didn't call them that I would crumble because they're my gateway to success.So this holistic pathway that they taught me was about self acknowledgement and self-worth, and it was about self-esteem and self management. And creating positive habits in your life and creating purpose in your life, creating passion in your life. And I fell in love with the George fell in love with the whole concept. I fell in love with what I heard the word holistic. Before I went in there, I was like, Oh, I'll come to come out of Tesla drive in tree foggy. We were in Birkenstocks. Like I'm a capitalist. I like business. I love helping people. And I like business. I'm like socialists and economic this and I'm like, I don't want to come out bleeding hard cone by yacht you're Nomis day. that's not a version of me either, and there's nothing wrong with that. I love I don't know yoga studio, but I'm too diverse. yeah, that's where I got my start, man. and from there went back to school and got a bunch of degrees and became certified nutritional practitioner, North and molecular health practitioner.This is where we talk about the patients and the passion. I looked back on most of my decisions that I'd made that led me to the bad path and they were, because I didn't plan it in preparing it in a purpose. You know what I call it the four piece for me. It's patients plan, prepare, have purpose, and I think they're very important. and I had, I didn't have any of those really aligned. I had react, emulate, stimulate. that's what I had and those weren't healthy. GEORGE: So what I think yeah is so profound. we could, we could do a 10 hour show and hence why I tell you keep need, you still need to launch your own podcast. For everybody listening, you can just hit Shane up and tell him that. But what I think is now to get to where we are today, right? So you. Had your epiphany moment. No one better than the, like the godfather himself of acting in that Italian accent and everything. And like that advice being absolutely profound.SHANE: He was so matter of fact and so direct and it was so he didn't know me that well, that's the thing, George. Yeah, that was the thing to me. He was just, he's just, he just seemed at the time, a 68 year old man. Who is on the top of his fucking refreeze. He took time to have dinner with him, the guy that he had five drinks within the VIP six, eight years before. I don't know. Maybe he needed a friend that night. Maybe he was lonely. I don't know, but I know that he's sat any and we talked and it was a human being. It was like the stars were aligned, bro. I just, I remember just sitting there It wasn't even that I was hanging out with, I wasn't Bobby de Niro wish like it wasn't, it wasn't like we were going out with Bobby de Niro, I sent my mother some pictures, totally Blackberry messenger at the time. Hey mom, Bobby's coming out with a bottle of wine from the restaurant. She's you're good. Bobby can hear here.GEORGE: what I think is so powerful and I'm going to bring it to today is like, when you really look at it like That intervention I'll call it intervention. That divine intervention was literally predicated on how you treated him over a glass of whiskey, X amount of years prior, even in the midst of all the chaos and the distraction, the addiction that you had, this part of you that really understood people going all the way back to childhood. Like people I'm no different. I treat people well, I treat people like it wasn't an accident. It was a by-product of how you showed up consistently. And then it basically was the lever to get you out of the way. So you go through passages, you get out, you get all these certified things. And you are a smart dude and the word you drop, I'm like, can you say that again and spell it for me when we spend time together, but really then you fast forward and everyone starts to catch wind and you literally help people. And you help everybody from the tip top to the top, to me, bumping down in the street. And I think one of your gifts is you have range and range as a gift. You have experience like you have the ability to reach out and connect with people anywhere that they are. And one of the things that I love about you is that like, when we meet, like we became like instant friends, we were on FaceTime, we were connecting, we were jamming, we were speaking and we speak the same language, but then you realize like you have a purpose, you have a passion. The reason this story exists is to serve people, to help people in whatever context that is. And then what I love is you take that tenacity. That's a gift that ability to be resilient and determined and, make it through this stuff and apply it to people. And these lessons that you've learned, I hear you say things, I hear you drop things that are like profound wisdom and nuggets, but I watch you and I pay attention to you and I work with you and I'm in your world.And one of the things that I will tell you is that every single person that I see, come into contact with you feels important. They feel seen, they feel heard, they feel respected. They feel like a person and that being your secret and and so when I got to meet you and I heard about what you were up to and how we could work together and how I could support you, I was like, this guy gets people like he's guaranteed to succeed. He understands that it's patience. It's the long game it's people. But my question for you is there's a lot of entrepreneurs that play this game. And a lot of us bury ourselves in entrepreneurship, right? That becomes our thing that becomes our value. That becomes our worth, the results that we create, how hard we can hustle, what we post pictures with.And so when you think about this, like now being where you are now and looking at all of what you experienced to get here, what's the hardest part. Of being here and remaining, like I'm worthy, I'm worth doing this, having the patients sticking the course with consistency and persistence, but you don't want a lot of the simple things that help you elevate. Where you are in your life, like, how do you go about that every day? what is your day look like? What do you focus on? you run this company, vitamin patchclub.com. You help people with life coaching and nutrition, coaching, and mindset coaching. And it's so what are you focused on? Like now with all of that history 30 years? what is so important to do now? SHANE: So I have one goal. One fixed goal in life. And I decided this whenever I was in school and I got my certified life coaching certificate or my co-active life coaching certification, I want to help people. I generally like the reward that I get. I'm still a drug addict. And the drug that I prefer is adult mean rush. They get when somebody feels better because I exist and that's a hundred percent true. Now you can't, I'm not wealthy enough to be in eliminate utopia where I can just give away everything and just go help people. I also am a capitalist and I also want to have a nice life myself.So I have to build something. I have to build something that has enough value that allows me to do what I want to do in the long run. My goal was always to build the company to a certain size that I would be able to step away as the leadership still be involved in the face and very active. And run vitamin patch charity, which should be a foundation that would hand out basically a million dollars a month. That's my first goal that I have when I started building the company, stepping back before that I learned I'm good at this. I learned whenever I started my life coaching. I've never charged a single person for life, coaching, celebrities, or homeless veterans or women's shelters. I do not charge, I won't charge.I don't need to charge. I have the abilities to make other income. I think that it's an absolute gift. It's an absolute responsibility that we decide to actually give a shit about other human beings. Again, I said it in my gold cast video. I'll say it again. We need to start caring about each other. Again, I don't give up. Pardon? My French. I don't give a fuck. What you politically believe you have blood coursing through your veins. You have aggression, you have sadness, you have sympathy, you have empathy, you have hurt, you have trauma, you have guilt and you have shame the same as fucking me. And it's so damn important that we start acknowledging each other as a human, not as some stupid tribal bullshit. I liked the Bulldogs. You like the Gators, like it's such fucking nonsense and I'm a fan of sports. You know what I mean? But like this asylums, we put each other in, I'm pro this, I'm anti this I'm this I fucking nonsense. What do we really want to do? Yeah, we want to exist. We want to feel good and we want to not be in harms way and that's not that complicated.And what I realized really quickly along the way is I live by one word to answer your question, what my day looks like, how do I manage very quickly? I do not go to bed unless I'm going to sleep easy that night. And I last week, didn't. I'm mad at my work. I was up for 48 hours. Cause I had shit going on that I hadn't worked through. I did not go to bed. I will not put my head on my pillow until I am assured that I did everything in my power to make it okay. To make things equivalate, to make them flattened. So I live by, I, you probably heard it the mind temporary. So it's I got this bracelet. this is a new one because my last one literally just wore out, had it for eight years, but it says truth on it.I believe a hundred percent authentic truth be who you are and be proud of who you are, even in the shining moments that suck. We're all. Fuck ups, trying to figure it out. Not one of us has a clue what's going to happen next. And quite frankly, not all of us have learned enough from our past. Right? So give your assurance and allowance for yourself to make mistakes it's going to happen. But you need to really, when I say truth, it's such a simple thing in a complex thing. I had a client last week. She called me. And I actually knew her as a child, as an infant. They lived with, lived in the neighborhood near me and she's followed me on Facebook and she goes, Shane, I need some help right now. And I see that you offer, can you put me in touch with a life coach? Because I said, I'm a life coach. I said, I'll help you out. I got it. I got an opening next Thursday. So to give you a, I'll go into the schedule thing, but long story short, I didn't tell her anything. She didn't know, bro. Yeah. I didn't help her. I allowed her to help herself. It's a very simple thing. what is wrong right now? I am telling you 100%. If you look in the mirror and you wonder why something didn't work, it didn't go your way. You fucking know why now it might be this shit over here that you have no control over. COVID put your restaurant in business. I get it. I'm a hundred percent on board and I terribly feel bad for you. But what are you doing today in your life to better yourself? And each one of us knows where we fall short. This thing like with, with athletes and what not, I give 110%, you can't give 110, you can give a hundred is a full circle. So let's stop this nonsense. And most of us don't have the capacity to even give a hundred. So what is your number that you need to hit? Because a hundred is assuming you're perfect and perfection, my friend doesn't exist now. So maybe you hit 99.9, but if you're trying to get ahead in business entrepreneurs.And you know that the email campaign you could have spent more, in your body right now, you didn't spend all the time you needed to on this one thing, you fucking know the answer. Yeah. and it's a matter of getting really honest with yourself and looking in the mirror and saying, okay, this is my range then. And it doesn't mean you're a shit piece. It doesn't mean you're no good. It means that you have the capacity to put out 68% of Epic shit. Yup. So how are you going to fill up that other 32? Yup. How are you going to find that at 32 now you're going to find good people. You're going to find, apps systems. Chart out George you're part of that 38 to me. I don't know what my percentage is. I'm being argumentative here totally. Really. I don't know if I'm putting out 88% of it. I'm putting up 20%, but I know that if I want to get my business to where it is, I can't do a hundred percent of it. It's not possible. I don't know enough. I'm not smart enough. It doesn't exist. But what I do know is that there's other people that can bring in things. And Brad fine example, of course, he's my business partner now. Brad was part of a mastermind that I went to that I didn't want to go to. I didn't want to sit in this meeting. My business was losing money. I was having a shit thing. I got taken to the cleaners by an old friend for a ton of money who is a fraudster to a piece of shit. But I was an old friend and I believed them. I didn't do the contracts people. So also be very articulate and follow through on them. I, he didn't fuck me. I fucked myself. That's the truth. I didn't go. If he was a stranger, I would have by-lines and by bylaws and by-lines and contracts so scheduled, I'm like, ah, he's a good guy. I've known him for 30 years. but I didn't want to go to this mastermind. And I sat in it and Kevin Thompson, who brought me in blessed, Kevin Thompson, sorry. He was like, Shane. He called me personally. I need you in here. I'm like, why do you need me? I go, I got nothing to offer. I go, my company just, I just got jacked for $200,000 this month and I've got three more months to rebuild or I'm out. I'm so pissed off at the world. I'm like, I'm not going to bring anything of values of shame.Everything you bring is value. He goes, we have consultants that want to move into charity and you work the most in charity of anybody. I know. I'm like, okay, I can help that transition. Yeah. I know how to do that. I know how to, I know how to talk to charity people to be able to, they wanted to consult and charities. They wanted to migrate the businesses. One consultant that was on the panel. And that's why he thought of me. And I said, I know the language. Brad's in there and. I just drive with them. And Brad was asking a question. I won't speak about his business. It's not my place to, but he was asking a question and I threw out a different way to phrase a question, for ascertaining some new business. And it wasn't even a field that I don't think about. And he's I like that. I'm going to try that. And about a week later, Brad called me and he used the pitch on me, which was funny. You can get a starcasticallyof course he's pretty bright guy. you can agree on that. And he was like, Hey, I want to do this for you. And I'm like, dude, I can't afford you at the end of it. No matter. Yeah. I was with you when we made the pitch, but I met with him and he did what he said he was going to do. And I found that piece that whatever it's 10, 15, 20, 30%, whatever it is that fills in the gaps, then he introduced me to you. And the other thing that I'll say really quickly to your crew here, you can't lose trust. That's the big thing too. So truth and trust are extremely important. You got to live in your own truth, but you can't be void of trust. Yeah, I hate, and I know that Gary V has been saying this a lot.I've been saying this for years and I know Gary, and he's a great guy. I'm telling you he didn't steal from me either. It's his own thought process, but I'm pissed off. He's got a platform that can say it to millions of people before I could is you don't earn shit from me. Your trust is your I'd give my George, I meet you once. I trust you if radically it's yours, what you do with is up here. Yep. And if I get burned by you and I trust you again, then I'm an idiot. Okay. But I give it, I don't, you don't earn shit from me. I have zero expectations. Zero. I don't expect a goddamn thing from anybody. Cause I will show up. I will show up on time, will show up with authenticity and truth. And if that's not good enough, Then it's not good enough. Yeah. And I had to learn that the last eight years of sobriety, I'm 45. Now I got sober at 37. I had to learn that I had to learn that I'm good enough as long as I'm giving it my best. and if you're honest with yourself and you're authentic with yourself and you give yourself, you gotta be hard on yourself. I am the worst fucking credit you had, a shock content two weeks ago under your advisement. Shane, I need you to shoot new content. They sent me everything. I think it's dog shit. I'm looking at it. I'm like, Oh, this sucks. This sucks. You know what? One's converting Epic. GEORGE: I know. And here's the beautiful part. That content was never for you or your opinion anyways. Cause I had you do it for themSHANE: I'm looking at what I'm doing and I'm like, Oh man, I don't like the way that shirt fits. And we're spoken a couple of things. Cause I'm like this I'm a flow guy, One for an hour.GEORGE: what I love about you and I have to interrupt you so I can wrap some paper around this. What I love about you is there's no filter between your brain and the world. So that means there's no filter between your heart, your brain in the world. And so we get all of Shane, but like what I love about this, earlier you talked about having the space, right? being an authentic truth. And one of my tools. For my sobriety was authentic expression all the time, regardless of what it was. And so you and I talk a lot and I find that my talking is my accountability measure, because I'll say it.And I say it all. I'm like, Oh yeah. When I did this and when I had this, when I had this, but it's just a practice, like a muscle. And so I want to wrap a couple of things that you said and ask you another question. you talked about like the a hundred percent, Jeff, Spencer's a dear friend of mine teacher. And Jeff is responsible for coaching over a hundred Olympic gold medalists, a hundred of them. And he taught me this beautiful word called temperance. And he's like Olympians or gold medalists. Cause they train to 70% intentionally every day, intentionally. And then they know that's what they have to do, to win that gold. And they save what's there

Topic - The Dangers of Vaping Electronic cigarettes have been around since early 2000, but only now has the FDA asked for companies to submit for testing the thousands of chemicals used to make the flavors. Considering that some of the chemicals are known carcinogens, why did it take so long? Vaping is being touted as a transition from being a smoker to being smoke-free, but it isn't. In fact, it's likely to be more dangerous than smoking tobacco products because the short- and long-term effects of these chemicals being heated and inhaled aren't known. Research using mice indicates that when they're exposed to vape smoke in the womb they became very hyperactive, had a build-up of plaque in their arteries, had a 50% decrease in sperm and the sperm they had moved slowly. Thinking of quitting? See your doctor. Nicorette gum and Chantix nicotine replacement may help you. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/drclaudia/message

Lyrica, Cialis, Eliquis, Humira, Latuda, Celebrex, Chantix, you’ve seen the commercials, over 80 run every hour on American television. America is on DRUGS! Oh no, I do mean literally! 79 million Americans Take Psychiatric Drugs! Worse even, well intentioned parents feed the drugs to their kids - all compliments of a drug-induced bureaucratic system that has gone both wild and unchecked. The Eggs Image, you might recall was the famous ad - This Is Your Brain On Drugs. It should be resurrected for the Pharma Industry! TV ads for prescription drugs are illegal in most countries, yet legal in two - and yes you guessed it - America is one of the two. I'll tell you the other one during the show :). TV ads encourage the pharmaceutical industry to cast a wider net for its drugs and to develop drugs that even healthy people would want to take - it's called ADVERTISING folks. These drugs expose people to unnecessary risks and discourage alternative, nonpharmaceutical treatments. Advertising campaigns also shift the market toward newer drugs, which are more expensive and possibly more risky - but what the hell - they make BIG PHARMA RICH! And then there's this notion that - 45% of Americans are mentally ill? At least some doctors seem to think that's the case. Dr. Gary Kohls discusses that issue as well as the roots of psychiatric problems. “If you say a lie often enough, people start believing in its truth,” says Dr. Gary Kohls. People are buying the drugs. And the IMPACT they’re having on society is not good. Drugs like VIOXX for Arthritis instead of ibuprofen - but the drug increased the risk of heart attack and stroke. Kaiser Permanente ended up having to pull the ad campaign. The ad exposure led to inappropriate prescribing it was found. People died, and yet the FDA continues to look the other way. Dr Gary Kohls is a retired family practitioner, who specialized in holistic (non-drug) and preventive mental health care for the last decade of his career. Dr Kohls worked with previously psychologically traumatized, usually malnourished, sometimes seriously neglected, and always over-drugged patients - many who were labeled “mentally ill” erroneously. Over the decade prior to his retirement, Dr Kohls treated over 1,200 patients and developed a unique treatment regimen that we will talk about today. Ask yourself the following questions: Why isn’t the psychiatric profession held accountable for having no science to support even one of their disorders? How can we as a society put blind trust in a profession that prescribes dangerous drugs especially to children based on subjective criteria instead of science?

I talk about it in the podcast; here is the full article: Running to the Beat: Ten Cool Songs to Keep You on Your Toes Runners of the world take note: there are more running-friendly songs available to you than ‘Eye of the Tiger' or 'Simply the Best'. Sick of listening to Queen's Greatest Hits on repeat? Then read on to discover some new songs to consider adding to the iPod when you're planning your next run. Want to know the best part? Each and every one has the words ‘run' or ‘running' in the lyrics. Cool, huh? On the Run - Pink Floyd Taken from the 1970s progressive rock band's third album, Dark Side of the Moon, this instrumental piece of music starts gently, but builds up to a rhythmic crescendo that is supposed to represent the pressures of travel. Not great if you are seeking inspiration from positive, life-affirming lyrics that encourage you to keep on going; keep on running, but perfect for those seeking ‘white noise' that will help their minds to focus. Run to You – Bryan Adams Upbeat right from the start, this is the perfect accompaniment to a pavement pounding session. This tune from the Canadian rock singer-songwriter has become a modern musical icon that has everyone's toes tapping, let along feet running. Although it was released in 1984 – almost 30 years ago, it remains fresh, upbeat and a must-have on any runner's iPod. Runaway – Bon Jovi Another 1980s great from US rock band, Bon Jovi, this is upbeat, rhythmic and full of interest, with rising crescendos and quieter sections, interesting lyrics and a great guitar solo mid-song. The song's tempo suits a general running pace and anyone who doe not sing along as they run must have greater will-power than most. Run to Me – Bee Gees “Run to me, whenever you're lonely; run to me if you need a shoulder…” This song is another gentle giant that does not provide a particularly strong beat to run to. However, the song's key strength is in its powerful message of solidarity and support. Something many a lonely runner needs to hear when finding the training hard going. Plus, you really can't beat those delicious Bee Gee harmonies… Run to the Hills – Iron Maiden Just as one might expect from one of the great heavy metal bands of the 1970s, this song hits you in the face from the off, telling the story of the conflict between European settlers in the New World and the Native American tribes. That's one way to ensure people sit up and take notice of American history, and a great motivator to keep running – to the hills and on towards the finish line. Run – Snow Patrol Released in 2004, this chilled out song would suit the cooling down session at the end of a hard run. Its calm mood and melodic chords help the listener relax, while the crescendos thrill the soul and add to a runner's feelings of post-run euphoria. ‘Run' is an uplifting, song, the like of which is regularly used by practitioners of music therapy to help calm the nerves and unlock inhibitions that prevent people from achieving their goals. For example, people prone to quick anger bursts can be appeased with a relaxing tune. Smokers who find that they suffer unbearable symptoms of cold turkey after they buy Chantix or similar smoking cessation drugs can ease their discomfort with chilled-out music, and those with irrational fears or phobias can even sometimes be calmed and enticed out to face their fears with tracks like this. Music really can be that powerful. Run for Your Life – The Beatles No iPod music collection is complete without at least one Beatles track. The 1960s iconic British quartet's bouncy vibe will not fail to cheer up even the most exhausted runner. This particular song has a dark side to it, due to the threatening tone adopted by a girl's jealous and possessive lover – indeed, John Lennon is said to have regretted writing it afterwards. However, with its jaunty rhythm and running theme, it still qualifies for inclusion in this list. Born to Run – Bruce Springsteen Another 1970s classic – this song has a decent beat, great voice and plenty of interest to help keep motivation levels high out on the road. Title song of Springsteen's third album and released in 1975, this song displays a wide range of influences. Ready to Run – The Dixie Chicks Now for something completely different… this county classic is all about girl power. Released in 1999, it tells of a girl ‘ready to run' away from a wedding she is unsure of going through with and towards her new, fun-filled future. Slightly cynical attitude towards love aside, this song is inspirational for those looking to run towards their own fun filled, healthier future. Go get ‘em, girlfriend! Run, Rabbit, Run – Flanagan and Allen OK, so this is a slightly more light-hearted choice to round up the list. Made popular by British Second World War comedy and singing duo, Flanagan and Allen, the lyrics tell of a life-and-death chase between a gun-wielding farmer intent on rabbit pie for his dinner, and the hapless rabbit fleeing for his life. Maybe not quite so useful to runners looking for focus, but perhaps its upbeat tone will provide a laugh for times when the road is long, the hills steep and the finishing line a long way away. Thanks for sharing some of the road with me, The 20 Minute Runner _________________________ The opening and closing Music is entitled "Running" and is by The Jefferson. Check it out at Music Alley.

The Pfizer public relations machine has been running at full speed lately, ever since widespread reports of suicidal thoughts, aggressive behavior and other serious adverse reactions in users of the pharmaceutical giant’s popular Chantix anti-smoking drug intensified. Chantix users have been experiencing angry, irrational behavior, terrifying dreams and a host of other problems, prompting a non-profit pharmaceutical watch dog group to recently publish a report detailing at least 988 “serious adverse events” relating to the drug filed with FDA during the last 3 months of 2007 – more reports than for any other medication received by FDA during the same period

Chantix is a prescription anti-smoking drug manufactured by Pfizer, one of the biggest pharmaceutical giants in our society today. Smoking has been referred to as a silent killer in our society. It has claimed the lives of countless people, and over the years there have been a variety of different techniques developed and used to try and help people kick their smoking habit. Pfizer has been very aggressive in their attempts to promote Chantix. They have come out with commercials on television that try to reach out to the consumer and persuade them to use Chantix. Their message however does not sufficiently inform the consumer that by using Chantix a person can end up causing deadly harm to him or herself. Their message does not properly convey the risks of this medication.
