YoutubeFacebookTiktokInstagramBioDJ Matrix first emerged on the electronic music scene in the mid-1980s with the release of “It's Time to Rock” in 1986 and “Feel My Bass” in 1988. Though he stepped away from music shortly after, those two tracks went on to achieve underground fame and built him a lasting fan base within the Electro and Miami Bass communities.After nearly four decades, DJ Matrix has returned with “Hypnotic,” a powerful, high-energy track that channels the same bass-driven intensity that defined his early work while fusing it with a modern EDM edge. The single features legendary artist Egyptian Lover, whose music first inspired DJ Matrix to pursue a career in electronic music, making the collaboration both full circle and deeply personal.DJ Matrix's journey is as dynamic as his sound. Following his early music career, he served in the U.S. Navy and later in the Marine Corps, including deployment during Desert Storm. Music had to be put aside as he focused on military service, raising a young family, and building a career outside of entertainment. He transitioned into corporate finance, becoming a stockbroker and later cofounding Randolph & Main Capital Group, where he continues to champion women and minority-owned businesses as Managing Director of Digital Assets. He also owned and managed professional basketball teams, including the Miami Pit Bulls of the ABA and the East Kentucky Miners of the CBA.Still, music never left his spirit. Encouraged by Egyptian Lover and rediscovering the international impact of his early songs, DJ Matrix returned to the studio with a renewed sense of purpose. His upcoming album, expected later this year or early next, will bridge classic Electro and Miami Bass with today's EDM landscape. With additional singles and a possible EP on the horizon, he is determined to give longtime fans the sound they have been waiting for while also introducing his style to a new generation of listeners.With “Hypnotic” leading the way, DJ Matrix is proving that his music remains as innovative and relevant as ever. Blending nostalgic analog energy with modern production, he is poised to spark a renewed appreciation for the Electro and Miami Bass sound that helped shape dance music culture.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

Podcast Summary Carlos Garrido took a leap of faith in 2009, leaving behind the bustling world of finance in England to embrace the vibrant opportunities of Miami, Florida. His journey wasn't just about navigating new landscapes but also about mastering a language and culture that were foreign at first. Encouraged by his brother, Carlos transitioned into entrepreneurship, carrying with him the Sandler principles that had already begun to shape his perspective on personal and professional success. His story illuminates the profound impact of perseverance and connection, emphasizing how these tools helped him overcome the daunting challenges of starting anew. The definition of success is ever-evolving, and today more than ever, it transcends mere financial gain. We explore how iconic figures like Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg reflect a modern ethos that prioritizes health and time freedom over ostentatious wealth. Carlos shares his enlightening experience with the 75 Hard program, a grueling yet transformative regimen that reshaped his approach to mental toughness and personal growth. This personal narrative highlights the shift from external validation to intrinsic self-worth, encouraging listeners to question deeply ingrained beliefs about success and identity. The episode rounds out with a discussion on achieving a balanced life, where both health and business aspirations find harmony. Through holistic practices such as Stoicism, journaling, and meditation, Carlos has redefined his views on masculinity and success. The integration of new fitness techniques and dietary changes, shared with family members, serves as a testament to the power of personal transformation. Amidst life's inevitable setbacks, the commitment to ongoing development remains unwavering, painting a picture of a life where professional achievements and personal well-being coexist, driving toward a future of holistic success and fulfillment.

Originally from Manchester, England, Carlos discusses his multicultural background with a Greek mother and a Spanish father, and his initial career in finance and investment banking. He explains how he relocated to Miami in 2009 to lead business development and M&A activities in Latin America, a move that was prompted by the global emphasis on BRICS strategies. Despite not speaking Spanish initially, Carlos embraced the challenge and fell in love with Miami and the United States, eventually becoming an American citizen. He recounts how he transitioned from finance to starting his own business in Miami, with encouragement from his brother who was a Sandler client. The chapter highlights the importance of perseverance and connection in overcoming the initial challenges of entrepreneurship. (16:43) The Mental Toughness of Success This chapter explores the evolving notion of what signifies success and wealth, contrasting the 1980s' flashy displays with today's emphasis on physical health and time freedom. We examine how modern entrepreneurs prioritize fitness, highlighting billionaires like Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg as examples of this shift. The conversation then transitions into a personal narrative about discovering and undertaking the 75 Hard program, a regimen aimed at mental toughness that also results in improved health. Initially resistant, I recount how repeated encounters with the program's concept, through friends and YouTube videos featuring its creator Andy Frazella, led to a transformative mindset shift. This experience underscores the importance of discipline, time management, and mental resilience in achieving personal growth. (21:06) Transformation Through Fitness and Business This chapter examines the journey of committing to a demanding 75-day program that requires daily dedication and challenges one's personal beliefs and identity. We explore how embarking on this journey required reevaluating what success means, questioning ingrained beliefs about roles as a man, father, and husband, and prioritizing personal health over economic achievements. Through self-reflection, the importance of self-concept in achieving success, especially in business and sales, is highlighted, emphasizing that one's self-worth is not solely tied to financial accomplishments. The transformative process includes overcoming cynicism and shifting the focus from external validation to an intrinsic sense of self-worth and personal value. This narrative illustrates the profound impact of challenging and reshaping one's identity and beliefs on personal growth and fulfillment. (37:08) Balancing Health and Business Success This chapter explores the journey of personal and professional growth, focusing on the transformation in mindset and lifestyle. We discuss the importance of integrating holistic practices like journaling, meditation, and philosophical exploration, particularly with Stoicism, to reshape perspectives on success and masculinity. Emphasizing the value of physical health, the narrative highlights adopting new fitness techniques and dietary habits, supported by resources like Men's Health and YouTube tutorials. We reflect on the continuous ambition for business growth, noting the significant progress made and future aspirations. The journey is one of balancing professional achievements with personal health and family life, sharing the challenges and rewards of weight loss and strength training, particularly in partnership with family members. Despite setbacks, the commitment to ongoing development remains steadfast, aiming for holistic success and well-being.

Our encouragement today comes from an experience on the NW Lancaster County Rivertrail. It was a very sunny day and gave me a realization about perfect timing in life.

Our encouragement today comes from an image I had on Labor Day Monday as I was pumping up the tires of our recumbent trikes. It might be a strange image, but indeed it is a powerful one, because we are safely held in the palm of God's hands.

Our encouragement today comes from pondering the toughness of life while pedaling along the Northwest Lancaster County Rivertrail. I think that you will find these two thoughts useful in this chaotic, difficult, rough and tumble world.

Baskin and Tom Withers discuss the play of both rookie quarterbacks through the preseason, saying they are encouraged by how both look. That said, they are still developmental guys that need time to get up to NFL speed.

In this episode, Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce CEO Bret Schanzenbach sits down with Lisa Carroll, president of Number Crunching, Inc., to explore her unique career path and specialized expertise in uncovering financial deception.Lisa shares her journey from humble beginnings in accounts payable and receivable to becoming a sought-after Certified Fraud Examiner. Initially recognized for her knack for unraveling messy financial records, she found her calling when an attorney asked her to testify in court on a fraud case. Encouraged by a judge who supported her despite lacking formal certification at the time, Lisa pursued and obtained her fraud examiner credentials, adding to decades of bookkeeping and accounting experience.She explains how her upbringing in a family of attorneys sharpened her ability to handle courtroom pressure with confidence. Today, she specializes in forensic bookkeeping—uncovering financial fraud in both divorce proceedings and business disputes. From identifying fraudulent personal expenses buried in company books to exposing multimillion-dollar embezzlements, Lisa thrives on what she describes as solving “financial puzzles.”Lisa emphasizes that her analyses are always “court-ready.” She tailors her reports so judges—who aren't accountants—can understand them clearly while ensuring every conclusion is backed by documentation. In some cases, she even serves as a neutral third-party appointed by the court to provide unbiased findings. Her role bridges investigative accounting with courtroom clarity, offering attorneys and clients confidence in the integrity of her work.Beyond business and family disputes, Lisa is passionate about protecting seniors from fraud. She highlights a staggering rise in financial scams targeting older adults, with estimated losses reaching nearly $20 billion annually. Drawing on her expertise, she partners with the FBI's Elder Justice Task Force and local law enforcement to present workshops at senior centers and community events, educating attendees about tactics such as AI-driven voice cloning scams. Her advice is straightforward: hang up, verify directly with loved ones, and always file reports with police and the FBI's IC3 system, even if the money seems unrecoverable.Throughout the interview, Lisa's enthusiasm for her work shines through. She describes each fraud case as a puzzle waiting to be solved and views her role as not only protecting financial integrity but also empowering individuals and businesses to take action when something feels wrong. For those seeking help—whether business owners, attorneys, or families—she encourages reaching out through her website, numbercrunchinginc.com, or by phone.

In this powerful episode, Frank Sunius takes us on a remarkable journey—from a difficult childhood in Amsterdam to wrongful imprisonment in Australia, and ultimately, to his rebirth as an inspirational speaker and author.Born to a mother who survived Japanese concentration camps and a father who valued success over connection, Frank grew up feeling unseen. To cope, he created what he calls his “Shadowland”—an imaginary refuge where he felt safe and valued.As a highly sensitive child in a world that rewarded toughness, Frank found his footing in sports. He became a skilled basketball player and tennis coach, known for his ability to unlock potential in others. But while he gave endlessly to those around him, his own needs went unmet. Burnout hit hard while working on a methadone research project in Amsterdam, leading to a severe mental health crisis.Prescribed powerful medications that caused dissociation, Frank was vulnerable. A well-meaning suggestion to take a “timeout” in Australia became a nightmare when he landed in Sydney and discovered his luggage had been tampered with—filled with drugs. Despite reporting the damaged suitcase himself, Frank was arrested, convicted, and sentenced to 11 years in prison.What followed were four harrowing years behind bars—but paradoxically, it was in prison where Frank began to heal. Writing became his lifeline. His words helped medical professionals realize he had been misdiagnosed and overmedicated.When he was unexpectedly released, he faced the world homeless, penniless, and disoriented. But a chance meeting with a former tennis student led to a coaching opportunity that sustained him for 17 years. Encouraged by mentors like Nick Vujicic, Frank turned his pain into purpose—sharing his story in his book Trapped in a Dream and inspiring audiences as a motivational speaker.Frank's message is clear and unforgettable: “Doubt less, fail more, dream bigger, and find your support team.” His story is a powerful reminder that our darkest chapters can lead to our most meaningful purpose.
