In this episode...Tyler and Mike sit down with a friend of a friend.  Allen Michael Boasten (from Episodes 10 & 13) gave the guys a call one day and told them that they needed to give Dan Collins a call, and boy was he right.  Dan Collins comes in and drops a master class lesson on living a rich life of faith, family, and impact.  For Dan, the one thing is prayer.  Dropping to his knees every morning and every night helps him to  say yes when he needs to.  The end result of living that way is a life where love replaces fear.  Dan and his wife have become humble instruments in God's hands and with God's help, they have been able to transform the lives of others.  Dan walks the guys through his incredible journey from blind faith to enlightened faith.  You won't want to miss this one!Show NotesWho Said It..."Harried and hurried, a nagging sense that we attempt too much and accomplish too little haunts our days." -Gary Keeler "One Thing"“Genius is only the power of making continuous efforts. The line between failure and success is so fine that we scarcely know when we pass it; so fine that we are often on the line and do not know it. How many a man has thrown up his hands at a time when a little more effort, a little more patience would have achieved success? A little more persistence, a little more effort, and what seemed a hopeless failure may turn into a glorious success. … There is no defeat except within, no really insurmountable barrier save one's own inherent weakness of purpose” (author unknown, Second Encyclopedia, ed. Jacob M. Brand, Englewood Cliffs, N.J.: Prentice Hall, 1957, p. 152).References...One Thing by Gary KellerCity Slickers (1991)The Pursuit of Happyness (2006)Domino ExperimentPareto Principle2 Corinthians 5:7Grossmont CollegeMalachi 3:10Dan's Non-Profit Organization "New Neighbor Relief"Psst...Check out our website or visit us on our Facebook and Instagram platforms.Mike and Tyler are both members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.  If you would like to learn more about the Church or their beliefs, we invite you to check it out by clicking here.

“Coincidences are God's way of staying anonymous.” We address: ● Lessons in gratitude and purpose from a man who bounced back from tragedy ● Why the more you give, the more you have to give ● The true measure of trust ● How to fully embrace the present moment Dan welcomes Steven Anthony King, an Author, Public Speaker, Certified Relationship Coach, Talk Show Host, and Co-Founder of Complete Chocolate Couples. He is the author of the book It's Really Good to See You. 3 MAJOR POINTS DISCUSSED ● Things don't happen to you. They happen for you. Every challenge, setback, and tragedy you experience contains within them seeds of opportunity that you almost never see, much less appreciate, in the moment. Further, not only will you experience growth upon recognizing and embracing these seeds; you almost always have the opportunity to benefit others with the lessons and gifts from those events. ● Gratitude goes beyond saying “thank you”. Gratitude is action. For Dan, the miracle that preserved his sight turned into an opportunity for him to share his story to tens of thousands onstage and, now, through his book. He believes that it is your personal responsibility to express your gratitude through concrete acts that “repay” the gift that was given to you many times over. ● Never rob yourself of the joy of now. Yesterday is gone and tomorrow is not yet here. It helps to get as specific as listing five-to-ten things that you are grateful for every day to get your reticular activating system primed and focused on attracting more of those things as you go about your day. You have to be intentional about pointing your mind in the positive direction so you can look at the glass as half-full.

Our guest today is Dan Lewkowicz, a commercial real estate broker, educator, and podcaster. In this episode, we talk about the pros and cons of net lease commercial real estate investing, how to build great relationships with brokers, and how to become a CRE broker yourself. If you're ready to invest in commercial real estate but are looking for something else other than multifamily, then this episode is for you! Learn more about Dan and his journey at reiclarity.com! “It's great to analyze deals and great to try to figure things out. But it's also great to not miss opportunities.”   03:59 Dan started his career as a CRE investor and broker 15 years ago in Detroit. His investing strategy is to follow the money and the resources. He sees a lot of opportunity in Detroit now.   Dan's specialty as a broker is net lease investment sales. He sells buildings that are rented or leased out to major national chains like Walgreens, Taco Bell, or Burger King. The reason it's called net leased assets is because the rental rate that is on the lease is net to the investor.   The pros of net lease investment compared to multifamily is that it's more reliable because the lease is set for 15-20 years and more passive. The downside is that there are not many properties available under $1M, however it can be done in syndications. “If you're looking to become an independent, successful real estate professional, it's great to be an investor. But the opportunity as a commercial real estate broker, especially today is absolutely incredible.”   21:06 Dan is one of the top CRE brokers in the country. He shares his insights on how to be on top of a broker's list. Be transparent, honest, and straightforward with what you're looking for. Treat the broker how you want to be treated. Trust your broker and be open to their advice. Give your broker feedback about the deals they bring to you.   According to Dan, finding net lease investment deals can be difficult as it is not as common as multifamily investing. He recommends interviewing brokers and looking for referrals.   Dan created a course called “CRE Pro” where he helps people who want to become CRE brokers and gives advice to CRE investors. “You need to put time and energy into the inputs and the outputs will come.”   38:55 At the end of the episode, Dan picks an action step from the REI Clarity Framework that is the most valuable to him. This is the “Know Your Strategy.”   For Dan, strategy means having very clear and replicable procedures. Create processes with the knowledge that you have and keep improving them. It's a process of refinement, so it doesn't have to be perfect today.

Ever felt like, in order to build your business, you had to make some tough sacrifices? If your body was one of them, you're not alone. It's easy to get wrapped up in the grind and forget about your fitness. However, as you'll discover in this new episode, physical health is the key to everything else! Chris and Dave sit down with the owner of High Performance Founder, Dan Go, to discuss how Dan has helped dozens of entrepreneurs accelerate their profits AND quality of life through foundational healthy habits. Dan lays out the #1 WORST mistake that thousands of entrepreneurs make (and it's not about their body), what fitness REALLY means to Dan, and the KEY to Dan's (and his clients') success. In This Episode: Dan breaks down the #1 WORST mistake entrepreneurs make for their health, but spoiler alert: It has NOTHING to do with their bodies. Once you understand the “three parts of the mind”, you'll have your “Aha!” moment and NEVER self-sabotage your progress again. For Dan, what inspires him to be in shape is MUCH more than appearance or ego. If you nail down THIS in your life first, then taking care of yourself is a no-brainer. Losing weight is about WAY more than a number on a scale. From scientific studies to business performance, Dan lays out why exercise is the KEY to success.

: Episode 1842 – On this Saturday show, Dan Lucas joins Vinnie to talk Dan's weight loss journey, beating sugar addiction with intentional NSNG®, cravings after dinner, chess, and more. Https://www.vinnietortorich.com/2021/05/beating-sugar-addiction-episode-1842 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS BEATING SUGAR ADDICTION In 2017, Dan and Vinnie did a consult. At that point, Dan had lost around 30 lbs down from 224–he is 6'2". This past Christmas, he gained to 232 lbs. The worst part was, he felt terribly. His cough came back and he generally felt much sicker. Dan got back on the wagon, and he has been more intentional with his fat-eating and carb avoidance. Since the New Year, Dan has dropped 32 lbs and is sitting at 200! For Dan, a lot of this was breaking an addiction. Some people can't just have a slice of cake... they have to have the whole thing and Dan is one of those people. It's frustrating for him: he thought he had a lot of control, but when it comes to sugar, that goes out the window. For some people, Life Into Living isn't so easy. If you're an addict, break the cravings, don't give into LIL. If your brain searches for sugar, don't give into it with "just a cookie" or something of the like. POST-DINNER CRAVINGS A lot of people feel cravings after they eat dinner. Your brain is hunting for more food now that your hormones are going. For some people, it's because they're used to dessert. Vinnie's suggestion: have nothing, or having a little charcuterie like Europeans do! Throw some cheese, some cornichons, some prosciutto on there, if you can handle those things. https://new.uschess.org/author/daniel-lucas FAT DOC 2 IS AVAILABLE ON iTUNES and AMAZON Please also share it with family and friends!

Dan Paulson and I start our conversation about systems with our why. So we can spend time with our families. Ideally, in beautiful places not just home. For Dan, that’s a home on the Lake of the Ozarks. Dan lives in Wisconsin so a trip to the lake in winter is a true reprieve.  We talk about the benefits of working online, even though we both miss in person meetings.  Dan tells the story of how he learned his work ethic and then how he had to unlearn it by putting boundaries, automation, and systems in place so that he can enjoy his family.  Of course, we explain several of these – time blocking, automated scheduling, scheduled emails, reusing content, and project management apps.  About –  Dan Paulson helps business owners build growing, sustainable organizations.  His superpower is to teach leaders how to get out of their own way by building strong teams and systems to achieve improved results.  Links:  LinkedIn  Free One Page Plan: heydanwhatsnext.com.  To learn more about your host, Catherine Avery:   Productivity by Design   Facebook Page and   LinkedIn  To connect with Catherine: Schedule a Call   *We are a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for us to earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites at no cost to you. 

In Ep. 120, According to Dan Martell, this is a massive mistake (and we're fully on board with the sentiment). At Recur 2018, the Canadian five-time founder and “Chief Instigator” took us through the framework he uses to make webinars the number-one channel for customer acquisition at the companies he coaches. For Dan, webinars are the ultimate “high-leverage sales process.” Instead of demoing your product one-to-one to a prospect, you use webinars as a one-to-many presentation of your idea and your product. Dan's secret to this is twofold: You must produce content that converts. You must incorporate the turn. (If You Have any questions regarding Sales, You can ask me on Instagram - Sattyam03)

In this episode, Clueless Gent talks to author Dan V. Jackson about his newest book, Rainbow Bridge. (We must use Dan's middle initial so as not to confuse him with author Dan Jackson.) Dan talks extensively about how to write dog characters, as well as why this story is different than most books that discuss the afterlife of our pets. With blatant candor, he tells us what prompted him to write this kind of story in the first place. Further, Dan tells us what's next in this new series.

My guest today is Dan Cooper AKA Mr Christmas, the Christmas buyer at John Lewis & Partners, where he has worked for 25 years. For Dan, Christmas is for life, not just for, well, Christmas! He lives and breathes this most magical time of the year every single day, and, because he starts planning each Christmas 18 months ahead, he already has his eye on Christmas 2022, when hopefully Covid-19 will be no more than a bad memory. This year, however, the ‘rona is very much still around, and people are turning to Christmas like never before to help bring some much-needed joy and sparkle into their lives. I absolutely loved chatting with Dan to get the inside scoop on all things Christmas. He tells me about the 8 trees he puts up in his home, his biggest festive turn-offs, the not-so-sexy Christmas tree that creaked, décor no-nos and top tips…and whether he is actually Santa in disguise.

"They continued to hear the sounds of footsteps behind them. Getting louder. Gaining on them. Their only source of hope was the soft breeze constantly flowing through from the opposite end. The cool, dry air. Finally - they reached a t-shaped intersection. Which way to turn?" In another fun week of spoopy fun, Dan shares two incredible stories. Our first story takes us to Oregon, just outside of Portland. Two friends take an adventure into a supposedly haunted mental hospital that is home to tunnels that connect to another abandoned building. Do they encounter an angry entity? Do they run into a former patient? Was it all in their heads? For Dan's second tale, it is short and not-so-sweet. Lynze hates the ending of this one; what do you think about an unfinished tale?  In the second half of the show, Lynze takes us to a possible haunting in Bozeman, Montana, in an old forest service lookout. Was it a ghost that entered this space? Was someone sleep walking? And who took the dog out in the middle of the night? For story number two, a fan submission makes us wonder if mirrors truly are a portal for spirits.  Thank you for continuing to send in your stories, Creeps and Peepers! Please keep doing so.

We've all heard a tall tale or two, but when it comes to Captain Dan Blanchard—well, he's the real thing. Growing up in Washington State, he has always been around boats. Even as a kid, Dan worked alongside other family members restoring the family's wooden tug. And the reward of all that hard work paid off in a big way—exploring winding waterways, beachcombing on remote shores, oyster picking and clam digging, learning to skin dive, incredible wildlife and cultural encounters, and a lifetime on the water. At this point, it's just part of his genetic makeup. Dan's unassailable career began early. As an accomplished Sea Scout, his leadership skills earned him honors of Regional Boatswain and National Boatswain Mate when he was 16. At 18, he received his Ship Master's License. He attended Everett Community College, and from there he's lived a storied-tale—owner and operator of Blanchard Marine; Captain of sightseeing vessels at Glacier Bay Lodge in Alaska; 14 years at Alaska Sightseeing/Cruise West working through the ranks from Captain to Director of Marine Operations to Vice President of Operations; and in 1999, he joined American Safari Cruises. Dan acquired the company in 2008 and as Principal/CEO, launched InnerSea Discoveries, a new small boat expedition company specializing in active adventures on the water. In January 2013, the company changed its name to Un-Cruise Adventures. A natural storyteller (2012 winner of Seattle's annual "Stories of the Sea" contest), enthusiastic skier and cyclist, energetic hiker, world-explorer in off-the-chart places, accomplished sailor, ocean lover, lover of the natural world, and lover of life are just a few of the tags and feverish passions you can pin on Dan. And in May 2013, he was adopted into a native Tlingit tribe. He's living the dream and wouldn't have it any other way. For Dan, it can't get much sweeter with both of his kids in the biz working beside him—it's safe to say it's in their genes too.

There’s never been a better time when companies needed their culture to come alive than now when the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is raging. Dan Arriola knows everything about it as his company, Inktel, has had to pivot from working in an office to working from home. Inktel was not only able to avoid the downturn caused by the pandemic but turned it has also turned the situation into something positive and it has in fact increased their business. According to Dan, the secret is being deliberate about your company’s culture and making the necessary small investments to make it come alive. But many companies focus on the features of their office rather than developing a valued culture, which is the exact opposite of what needs to be done in times of crisis. Sometimes, they do the complete opposite of what they claim to be their culture which is why, for Dan, the company culture must be memorable and actionable through their core values because this is what keeps their essence going even when things change abruptly. So what do you do to make your core values stick and come alive? For Dan, they have an acronym for their six core values that everybody at the company knows and owns. It’s STRIVE. And so far, Dan says their investment in building a valued culture has paid off. Now that your culture is identified and embedded into every member, how then can you measure the ROI from investing in your organization’s culture? Dan Arriola is the President of Inktel, a contact center solutions company that provides call center, email, chat, and social media support for fortune 1000 brands. They’ve been in business for over 20 years and they have seven locations throughout the U.S.  If you’re someone who wants to build a strong culture in your organization that does not take the fun away from work and generates returns at a low cost but is not sure how to move forward, be sure to tune in to this episode of Culture Czars. In this episode, you’ll glean insights on how to develop a valued organizational culture, maintain it, generate ROI, and have fun along the way.

Before the pandemic hit the Giants were set to retire Will Clark's #22 jersey this July. That ceremony is now in jeopardy, but luckily, the sentiment has no expiration date. Which is why our senior editor and writer, Daniel Brown, decided now was as good a time as ever to reach out to 14 former teammates and foes and ask about their favorite Clark memories. Knowing host Kate Scott is a huge Clark fan, Brown was kind enough to save every one of those interviews and pass them along. If you haven't listened to parts one and two yet, start there. They'll get you primed for today's finale, where we cover — the Ozzie Smith fight, Mark Grace vs. “Superman”, the save, and Clark's legacy. Enjoy the ride!

Dan Liburd has worked with professional athletes for over ten years. He is also a training fanatic, having competed in 10 Ironman events, over 15 marathons, bodybuilding, powerlifting and olympic weightlifting. In addition, he is currently pursuing his PhD and has been a driving force in my development as a person. I brought Dan on to discuss his training and balancing all those endeavors, but beyond that he shared some incredible stories about leading a blind runner in a marathon, his first triathlon experience and how his training has helped him as a coach. Furthermore, it was fascinating to hear him discuss some of the physical changes he's undergone and how he has structured his training to compete in many disciplines at once. For Dan, his training is the ultimate learning experience and all coaches should try and adopt this mentality.

Ep # 106 - Dan David, the featured protagonist and narrator in the ground-breaking documentary film, The China Hustle, joins the Marketing Geeks, Justin Womack and Andros Sturgeon, for a fascinating sit-down interview about massive levels of fraud and deception that have yet to receive proper mainstream attention. Dan is a freedom of speech advocate, an activist short-seller and he was the former Republican Congressional Candidate for the 4thdistrict of Pennsylvania. He’s also the founder of Wolfpack Research, and CIO of F.G. Alpha Management, a short-biased hedge fund.

In Episode 030 of Bike Tour Adventures, I have the chance to talk with Dan Hurd, a Navy Veteran from the United States that is cycling 25,000 miles around the Lower 48 in the USA. Having now been on the road for 2 years and having cycled 15,000 miles, he is well on his way to achieving his goal. Dan’s story is extraordinary but it doesn’t come without a cost. For Dan, cycling was exactly the therapy he needed. Without it, he might not be here with us. He did this “One Pedal At A Time”.To become a Bike Tour Adventures Patreon click this link: https://www.patreon.com/biketouradventuresFor links to Dan's social media and non-profit OPAAT movement, follow the episode 030 link posted below and you will find all his links just before the show notes.EPISODE 030: http://biketouradventures.com/episode-030/Follow me at…WEBSITE: http://www.biketouradventures.com YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPQl_pNcMZA-hHckhVrpmaw FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/biketouradventures/ INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/bike_tour_adventures/ TWITTER: https://twitter.com/BikeTourAdv ITUNES: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/bike-tour-adventures/id1464406852 Show Notes~ 01m 30s     Intro to Episode and who is Dan Hurd and the story of his first ride~ 09m 00s     What about being on a bike makes him appreciate life so much more~ 14m 10s     His bike, route, what he has in his bags, and 3 things he can't live without~ 20m 33s     What is the OPAAT Movement and what is its goal?~ 29m 00s     What has been the response and what positive outcomes have their been?~ 45m 30s     Talking about the actual bike tour~ 54m 30s     Being hit by cars on 4 occasions, technology, camping and cooking~ 61m 30s     Most challenging part of past 2 years~ 69m 40s     How he has grown throughout the tour~ 74m 30s     Next episode and where to contact me 

My conversation with Dan Flanzig: Dan is a minor (very minor) celebrity among bicycle riders in the New York Metropolitan area because of his personal injury law practice that specializes in representing injured cyclists - making Dan the "New York Bike Lawyer"! Don't worry though, this podcast is NOT about bicycle law! This podcast is about a lifelong wellness journey. For Dan it started at a moment in college after finishing a platter of 13 hamburgers. At that moment he said "I'm tired of being a fatty"! We all have moments like that, but our wellness paths are never a straight line. Life always seems to get in the way. Dan's key to success is one that Mediocre Mitch has also subscribed to - JUST KEEP GOING! Keep trying new things and never give up on yourself. Given today's COVID-19 global crisis, this conversation is a nice diversion and a nice reminder of what a successful (and human) wellness journey looks like. All aboard!!

During Episode 120 of the HyperFast Agent Podcast, host Dan Lesniak shares tips and life advice that will help you grow hyper-fast. He will encourage you to wake up early, make time for your relationships, find a good work environment, and to believe in what you can achieve. Episode Highlights:  Get up early and knock out two or three hard tasks immediately. For Dan, that's a mix of getting up, getting his mind right, taking on two or three big work tasks, and working out. If Dan can get those things done before 8am, he's already had a successful day and he knows he can get even more done. Dan and Keri recently enjoyed a World Series game together. Make time for your relationship, just as you would for other important things in your life. Your relationship will not improve if you don't work on it. Dedicate a space for your work.  Your physical environment matters. Work in an environment that will help you be productive and happy.  They started the podcast less than a year ago and it's amazing to see what it has become. Dan didn't think the podcast would build this fast. Don't put limits on yourself. People get so intimidated by other people operating at such a high level. You can get there. The first time they shot a podcast the circumstances weren't ideal, but they just did it. They got better at it, and more comfortable with it, and now they're shooting in a dedicated podcast room. 3 Key Points:   Wake up early and knock out hard tasks first.   Make time for improving your relationship.   Don't put limits on your success. It's amazing what you can achieve. Resources Mentioned: Learn more about Hyperfast Academy; HyperFast Inner Circle  Dan Lesniak bio, Facebook, Twitter 

Connecting CFOs with Dan Wells Dan Wells is talking to us about connecting CFOs. He founded two collaborative portals: growcfo and growceo. He's spent 20 years as an advisor to lots of high-growth, entrepreneurial businesses. Additionally, he was an equity partner in a big four firm. Now, he's making his own path with his new venture. Entrepreneurial spirit Dan's passion has always been to become an entrepreneur. His family have had experiences as entrepreneurs' as a result, he wanted to follow suit. When Dan was younger, his parents worked hard with a catering equipment company. He used to spend his time keeping out of trouble by helping deliveries to local businesses. Also, his uncle ran a successful catering business. Looks like being a business professional runs in the blood! Connecting CFOs with portals http://thenext100days.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Portal.mp4 How do you connect CFOs through portals? What's the business idea? When Dan looks at a lot of the tech businesses that have done well, he sees that entrepreneurs apply technology to a good skillset in order to create their own business. It's a great business model to apply technology to field which you are passionate about and already have a solid network in. What Dan's done is get some software and joined with a tech company in order to create a big collaboration zone. That way, there can be a great platform for shared ideas and resources. In fact, this is how Dan and Kevin met! They connected on LinkedIn and Dan offered Kevin a place on the CFO portal. Once you get into the portal, you set up a profile and then you would have access to all the content and you can message any other members. You can either use the different threads of the information that has been posted; or you can filter all of the content according to what is most relevant to you. For Dan, it's about making what's relevant to people. You can get lost information overload and so this service gets people in front of a community and the information you want. He provides support. Where did it start? What Dan has found is that people can often be lonely and isolated within their roles. They try find solutions themselves and get their head down. Invariably, they waste a lot of time and cost. What Dan encourages them to do is find others in similar situations and try and learn from the things they have worked out. This also applies to learning from their mistakes too! It sort of links to our conversation with Engel Jones - sharing our experiences can be such a powerful thing. The portal that's set up at the moment is purely online. Dan and his team were keen to get a good number of members so there was a solid critical mass in each location. He has about 1000 members now, which means they have enough people with common interest to start thinking about events and getting people together face-to-face. Income http://thenext100days.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Income.mp4 With gathering people together, there are lots of opportunities for generating income. However, the importance is to maintain and manage the user experience of the portals. It needs to be an attractive place for users to come to. Dan's recently departed the world of big organisations. He left back in June last year. Since then it's been a rapid journey and the uptake of the portals have been really high. What's really encouraging is the level of referrals - it's a big indicator of how people are finding the user experience. USPs for connecting CFOs http://thenext100days.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Different-from-LinkedIn.mp4 Chief Executive Officers It's not just all about numbers. It's about humans as well...isn't that right Kevin?! On a more serious note, what's the difference between CFO and CEO portals? Is there any? To start with, Dan found that the business leaders on the CEO forum were more open and much more likely to post on the forum. Over time, however,

For most, stage fright stems from being on stage and messing up, or looking foolish, or embarrassing yourself. For Dan, the Ex Fabula storyteller you’ll hear on this podcast, the anxiety about his performance actually stemmed from the logistics of getting to and from the stage itself.

My guest today is Dan, a co-founder of Nonfungible.com. Dan is building a platform that focuses on the data surrounding the NFT ecosystem but has plans to turn it into much much more. What I loved about our conversation was Dan's focus on the core fundamental values of the crypto ecosystem: Transparency, security, and self-sovereignty. For Dan, this is not just another industry he wants to be apart of because of its massive growth potential, this is not even an industry at all for him. This is a movement, this is a revolution to create a more transparent and freer society. Now that is something I want to be apart of. Please enjoy my conversation with Dan.

Longtime Bay Area sports columnist Art Spander didn't know he'd taken then-Falcons offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan's backpack during a media scrum a few days before Super Bowl 51, but he had, and the mix-up left the first time Super Bowl coach in an absolute panic. With help from Senior Editor, Daniel Brown, we get the full story of how the mix-up happened, why it was so important that Kyle got the ‘pack back, how he tracked it down, and what those traumatic few hours taught him as he heads to his second Super Bowl this week.

Welcome to the Conscious Creators Show; where through intimate and insightful interviews with authors, actors, musicians, entrepreneurs and other podcasters, you'll learn tools and tactics to 10x your creativity and strategies to grow and monetize your audience. In today’s episode, Dan Clark, CEO of Brain.fm talks about how a near-death experience led him to re-evaluate his life, how he found Brain.fm and his journey from contacting customer support to becoming CEO. We also talk about his early childhood experiences, being picked on and learning martial arts, and how that relates his ‘why’ behind Brain.fm.  If you enjoy this episode, feel free to reach out to Sachit and Dan at sachit@platformsmedia.com + dan@brain.fm.  Actions:  Subscribe to the show on Apple Podcasts or on your favorite podcast app and let us know what you think by leaving a rating and a review. Thank our guest and let them know what you thought of today’s episode — click here to send a Tweet directly to Dan and Sachit or find Dan on Instagram.  Head on over to Creators.Show to get new episodes, exclusive guides like our guide on “How to Connect With Busy Influencers”, partner deals and additional bonuses.   Episode Highlights:  Dan had a near-death experience that led him to reevaluate his life. He discovered Brain.fm and had a healthy skepticism about it. Dan didn’t finish college because he found that his body clock didn’t work with the schedule, and he had the same experience when he tried going into advertising. He found Brain.fm so incredibly valuable to him, so he contacted customer support persistently until he was put in touch with the Founder. They weren’t able to hire him for what he was charging, but he decided to work for them for free to prove his value. Dan believes he got that discipline and persistence from training in martial arts. Dan is always trying to optimize communication. Ask yourself why you want something and why you’re doing something so you can align all of your goals to that why. One of the biggest challenges we have in today’s society is plugging into deep focus and then disengaging from it on a set schedule. Some people aren’t made for that. Using Brain.fm has helped people with everything from general focus and productivity to PTSD, ADHD, and autism. The idea of music being capable of changing lives and mental states is not new. Brain.fm is different from the pop science theory of binaural beats, which does not have as much scientific backing as the audio research done for Brain.fm. Dan got grant funding to research alternative treatments for ADHD and therefore validate the science behind Brain.fm. Right now, Brain.fm is used for focus, relaxation, sleep, and meditation. Their next step is to improve what they already have before they expand what they do. They are working on integrating wearable technology to measure an individual’s baseline and change the music selection based on your needs. Developing workout music requires changing the fundamental ideas behind the music because unlike focus music, for which the goal is you ignoring the music, workout music requires focus on the music itself to distract you from your workout. Sachit asks Dan what their process is for developing new products. Dan says they have a resident neuroscientist on staff. You can use Brain.fm as part of the Pomodoro method. Dan struggled with focus as a kid, dealing with bullying and other distractions. For productivity, Dan emphasizes forming good habits rather than relying on tools. Every morning, Dan gets an iced coffee and writes. For Dan, work sprints are the most effective way to structure his day. Multitasking does not work or increase productivity, so Dan limits the number of times he context switches each day. Understand that everyone is different; people with the same goal will have different reasons for doing it. Dan thinks of his company like a ship—when he helps people, he expects them to help him back. Even if he’s the captain of the ship, he can’t run it alone. Common traits that Dan sees in entrepreneurs are perseverance and the ability to find meaning in things that happen. Dan had a severe stutter as a child and he sees the speech coaching he got in elementary school as one of the most valuable things he received in his education. Dan bought a bracelet in Laos that he hasn’t removed in 6 or 7 years because it reminds him why he’s doing the work he does; the extreme poverty he witnessed while traveling inspired him to take full advantage of every opportunity he gets with full gratitude and commitment. Dan approaches trying new things with a genuine love of a challenge. Everything Dan approaches, he challenges himself to accept both the worst case scenario and the best case scenario, within the bounds of what’s realistic. For example, before jumping out of an airplane, he accepted that the worst case scenario would be that he’d be uncomfortable for 2 minutes and not enjoy himself.   3 Key Takeaways: A crucial part of goal setting is determining your why. No productivity tool will help you focus without good habits to back it up. Reframe trying new things as an exciting challenge to conquer.   Tweetable Quotes:   “Everyone has different goals, and different reasons why they’re doing an action. And when you first find the core belief of why someone wants to do something, that is a great way to start.” –Dan Clark   “Human beings are the only animal on this earth that I’m aware of that can learn and change their own behavior, and we have the conscious ability to be able to do that.” –Dan Clark   "As people, as our brains work, we don’t really multitask.” –Dan Clark   “We have certain belief structures about the world that we live in, about who we are as a person, that can limit us into being the true version of ourselves.” –Dan Clark   Resources Mentioned: Brain.fm Reboot: Leadership and the Art of Growing Up Email Dan: Dan@brain.fm   Actions:  Subscribe to the show on Apple Podcasts or on your favorite podcast app and let us know what you think by leaving a rating and a review.

Deebo Samuel, the 49ers second-round pick out of South Carolina, is quietly having the most prolific rookie season by a Niners wideout since Hall of Famer, Jerry Rice. And while Samuel is humble and understated on the field, he's anything but when it comes to his sense of style off of it. With help from Senior Editor, Daniel Brown, we get into the story of when Samuel's love of fashion began, when it bloomed, the intriguing juxtaposition of the way he plays and the way he dresses, and what he hopes to do with his passion for clothing down the road.

Visit https://DeleflorTeachings.com/futuring to learn more about how to design your desired futures and receive a futuring journey audio meditation in either English or Spanish.Recently, I’ve spoken with a mentor figure, an incredible soul-friend, and truly one of the most impeccable teachers of the heart I’ve ever met, Dan Brule.Dan insists that the heart and breath are connected--literally. The lungs wrap around the heart, and he believes this isn’t an accident.As we breathe, we’re awakening our hearts, opening them unconsciously. Just think of what we could do if we had mastery over this process.Our ears are what people think of as the listening organ, but there is an art to listening with your heart. Dan explains this idea is good because we focus on our heart while we breathe, consciously living alongside a natural connection.He also notes that this divine connectedness (a mother figure) doesn’t always communicate through our mind. She whispers through our heart, through our emotions. For Dan, the divine “mother” is an intelligence reaching towards us beyond matter.The art he speaks about is a practice. When you consider an object, don’t just look at it—breathe it in. As you listen, don’t just listen. Breathe. And the same goes for touch.This is the stuff of magic and miracles. When the outer breath (air) merges with the inner (spirit) that is when something awakens inside us.How can one approach this themselves? Unlocking this potential in their own lives?The answer, Dan says, is to approach breathing with a specific attitude. We must bring a specific quality to our breath that will unlock this power, a secret that the breath itself holds.He tells me this secret: the breath is a thread. If we follow this thread, it will lead us to the well of life within us.Dan further explains that everyone already embodies this philosophy of connectedness. We’re all one. It’s the shared experience of breath that literally connects us. Everyone, from the moment we’re born until we die, are living together in this bubble of air wrapped around Earth.He believes every great spiritual teacher spoke about the breath at some point. Now, it’s time to embody those principles the learned masters understood.When we breathe, we take those spiritual principles in hand. Whether we know it or not, it’s a simple practice that is done by shifting your mindset.Dan asks, “What would you like to create in yourself? He continues by asking us to focus on this question as we breathe. In our minds, we are now taking part in a spiritual creation process.A bit more on this teacher of mine, Dan Brule lives in Baja Mexico. If you know this area, you’re familiar with its arid, tropical climate. The desert soil is hard and packed down. When it rains here, the water just washes along the surface.However, if you turn the soil, when it rains, the earth readily drinks up the water. This soil “turning and loosening” is relaxation.Hence, Dan says that by combining breathing with relaxation, we can absorb the “water” or spirit. Without relaxation, our minds are like the desert soil, closed to the life-giving waters. Dan also notes that we cannot afford hard or feelings. Harboring these unyielding notions will cut us off from the connection to our source. Furthermore, he explains that this awareness is achieved through meditation and breathwork. The more meditative awareness we bring to the breath, the more we see our minds loosen to accept the waters of the spirit.This practice doesn’t exclude a secular view either. If the more profound parts of spiritual practice don’t suit you, you can simply imagine your favorite fragrance. As you inhale, put yourself into the pleasure of that moment.If this appeals to you, then expand further using your memories as tools. Reawaken old moments when someone expressed love to you and breathe in the warm feelings they bring. Feelings of love are never lost to us..Moreover, Dan says to reawaken moments of criticism. In their own way, people try to show love through critiques. If we can find the goodness, even in these tougher moments, then your life can drastically improve.In addition, one of Dan’s early teachers pointed out that even violence is only an illusion. It’s an immature, or even disgusting, manner of expressing love. Warped and twisted though they are, violent acts are usually driven by love.If we choose love as our lens for the world, then that is what we’ll see. With practice, the choice to turn towards love gets easier and easier. Use the tools of focus and intention setting. Remember, everything is based on perspective.Dan concludes with breath’s simplicity. Like Occam’s Razor, the simplest explanation is usually the most powerful. Keep in mind to breathe, play with your breath, and pray with your breath.To learn more about how to design your desired futures and receive a futuring journey audio meditation in either English or Spanish, visit https://DeleflorTeachings.com/futuring

Type 2 is a podcast from Looking Sideways in association with Patagonia that explores the intersection between the outdoors, action sports and activism. My guest for this episode of Type 2 is Dan Yates from Save Our Rivers Save Our Rivers is an environmental organisation dedicated to protecting our wild rivers and national parks. For Dan, activism is intrinsically linked to his own love for wild places, sure. But what comes across from his story, and why I think it is so valuable, is the reality of everyday activism. Dan and his peers are fitting in their activism around their everyday lives, finding hugely effective ways to achieve their goals that don’t necessarily rely on direct action, and instead means a lot of hard, dedicated and often unglamorous work. There’s huge value in this because one of the themes that is gradually becoming clear as Type 2 evolves, and I speak to more people, is that for activism to really succeed it needs to be a combination of passion and pragmatism, which is something Dan and Save our Rivers epitomise. New episodes of Type 2 will be released every four weeks through my Looking Sideways channel. Hear it by subscribing to Looking Sideways via ApplePodcasts, Spotify, Podbean, OvercastFM or any of the usual other podcast providers. Thanks to Ewan Wallace for the theme tune, and to my editor Fina Charleson.

Dan Lotti once said, “For me, the whole artistic process is rooted in a sort of spiritual practice. I’m not outwardly yogic, but every single day I’m involved in a yogic practice of meditation and stretching. I think that practice inevitably breathes and inspires the music. It opens you up to a lot of different perspectives”. For Dan and his band Dangermuffin, the music they make is meant for both fun and for healing. Their songs are both for bringing community together, and for letting loose and enjoying a tight jam. Here, those jams are mostly acoustic. In this episode, host Joe Kendrick talks with the now mainly Appalachian based group about how searching for authenticity can lead to greater rewards, balancing life at home with touring, what elements of Southern culture are reflected in their music, and more. And of course, there is lots of their music, with a sampling of Dangermuffin songs from their recent stop in Greer, SC at the Albino Skunk Music Festival.

What's your white noise? What are the sounds, if any, you need to have in the background as you write? For Mark, it's a combo of instrumental jazz, train rides and coffee shops. For Dan, it's an algorithm-based white noise he subscribes to at brain.fm. Dan raves about a creative inspiration book, Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear, by Elizabeth Gilbert. He then talks about his story maze approach to writing, and exploring the cul-de-sacs along the maze path.

Dan Whitmore possesses some of the rarest books on the planet. The art of publishing and design around a first edition. “A first edition book, for me, is representative of where I was in my life at the time and who I was when I was reading it” -Dan Whitmore There are design books, books about design, about designers. Designers use books in their designs and then there are the types of books from which designers might design an entire room. Dan Whitmore is the proprietor of Whitmore Rare Books. He is a true fan of books, yes. But he is both a collector and purveyor of first editions, rare books and artistically bound treasures. I made the journey to Old Town Pasadena which really is the perfect place for his store. When I walked in, I got a little ‘Harry potter’ kind of feeling. The smell of aged paper and leather. Dan is an interesting guy. Starts his business out of a lifetime passion for old books, collecting and pursuing. For Dan, his pursuit of first editions and collectable books is much like that of an art collector, wine collector or any true collector for that matter. Some of these can fetch hundreds of thousands of dollars if not more. Dan and I talk about what is inside, outside and throughout some of the most rare and sought after in his collection. This is the story of a trained and formerly practicing attorney who decided to turn a page in his career and chase his passion for rare books. This is Dan Whitmore.

What’s the connection between education and development? My guest today, Dan Wagner, argues that it’s past time to move beyond conceptualizing development as economic growth. For Dan, the framework we should use is learning as development. He calls on social scientists to work towards a Learning Gini Index that not only takes learning seriously but also equity. Dan Wagner is Professor of Education and UNESCO Chair in Learning and Literacy at the Graduate School of Education, University of Pennsylvania, where he is also the director of the International Literacy Institute and International Educational Development Program.  In today’s show we talk about his new book, Learning as Development: Rethinking International Education in a Changing World (Routledge 2018). He has also published a new book for UNESCO entitled Learning at the Bottom of the Pyramid (UNESCO 2018). www.freshedpodcast.com/danwagner/ email: info@freshedpodcast.com twitter: @freshedpodcast

What do core values, employee ownership, and craft beer have in common?  Today on the Growing with Purpose podcast, host Paul Spiegelman talks with Dan Kenary, CEO and Co-Founder of Harpoon Brewery, a Boston-based craft brewery. Harpoon Brewery was founded in 1986 on a strong foundation of values and mission. Today, Harpoon Brewery is a shining example of a Small Giant — the company has nearly $60 million in revenue and is employee-owned through an ESOP (employee stock ownership program). For Dan, it all comes down to embracing a principles-first approach that puts people at the center of the business. As Harpoon Brewery sets its sights on achieving a second ESOP transaction, learn the strategies and systems that help keep the business on track and empower employees to feel and act like owners. In this episode, hear how Harpoon Brewery brings its company motto "Love Beer. Love Life" to life through mission-driven ownership and strategic commitment to core values.

Gaardsy is in For Dan today, Voice of the Gophers, Mike Grimm in studio. Drama in the Twitterverse. Kai Forbath's exit. Sauce in studio with stories from off hours. How unwatchable was the weekend's preseason game? Very, according to Sauce, who has no work life balance. Johnny Athletic joins the conversation, will the NFL ever be the same?

Today's guest, author, artist, and speaker Dan Blank, knows an awful lot about fostering creativity. As dad to a six-year-old and a new baby, he also knows the struggles that creative people go through to retain their creativity – their sanity, even – while raising children. For Dan it's a foregone conclusion: the way we humans are, right down to our very core, demands creativity. It's not something we can escape because it's part of us – everything feels off when we don't have a creative outlet. But how do we accomplish that, while we're caught up in the daily demands of work, and raising children, and everything else? That's what our conversation is all about today. I know you're going to love it!

The margin is the new project by producer and promoter Dan Watts aka Fractal Architect. As a teen of the eighties, Dan witnessed the establishment of techno and house music as it filtered over the water from Chicago and Detroit, before finally exploding into popular culture in England through the original Energy parties in London. A dedicated techno lover to the end, Dan was one of the many Dj’s at this time who were responsible for introducing the likes of Richie Hawtin, Underground Resistance and Joey Beltram to the U.K. Dan has Dj’d with many of the world’s best including Carl Cox, Nick Warren, The DJ Producer, and Colin Faver. For Dan it’s always been about the music, and this was very much the ideology that led him to form the legendary free rave collective ‘The Assembly’ in 1991. Dan and the crew were responsible for numerous gatherings, frequently attracting over 5000 party heads from all over the country to one of many beaches, commons or woodland clearings every Friday and Saturday night during the summer months. Dan’s next move established him as one of the leading techno DJ’s in the South West of England. He was the founder member of the infamous ‘Sketch Crew’ who were responsible for organising one of the largest weekly house and techno club nights anywhere in the country, regularly attracting over 1500 clubbers. Dan’s unique approach to music and his own distinctive and very tuneful style, quickly demanded that he hit the studio to write his own sound. A wonderful wife, four children and a degree later, Dan is back in the studio, producing a string of releases on some of the most well respected labels in the business and appearing in the playlists of the worlds elite DJ's including Paul Oakenfold, Hernan Cattaneo and Gabriel Ananda.

Another ten Hot Date episodes down can only mean it's time once again for Dan and Vicky to make a top ten list.  This time our hosts decide to pick their favorite performances by an actress.  Every genre and era is represented and there will definitely be some surprises and head scratchers along the way.  There are a couple of Australians, a French woman, a Spaniard, even a Scientologist or two.  Filmmakers as varied as Woody Allen, Terrence Malick and Lewis Teague are represented.  But enough hints!  Before they get to their lists, Dan and Vicky tell us how they spent their Memorial Day. For Dan, it included lots of face pampering while Vicky dealt with lots of vomit.  You'll hear all about their recently seen (everything from Broadway's Hamilton to Alice Cooper's Monster Dog to the Degas show at MOMA).  And Dan gets on his soapbox about the controversy behind a recently retracted billboard for X-Men: Apocalypse.   It's ladies first on Hot Date 30, top ten favorite female film performances.

Miracles tend to happen during the holiday traveling season. For Dan, it seemed his miracle might have been looking straight at him. Was that moment enough to take a shot in the dark?

Your Higher Purpose In today's interview, I talk with Dan about The Higher Purpose Project. It's an intensive training course designed to help you live a life of courage aligned with your highest values. It pretty much goes without saying that I support the project and encourage anyone interested to reach out to Dan and apply to be a part of it. Starting From Scratch In 2012, Dan Adams did something impossible. With no experience, no resources and no connections, Dan created an award winning (2012 ESPY Award winning, actually) social project called Mission Kilimanjaro where he and a small team of veterans and civilians summited Kilimanjaro. Of course, summiting Kilimanjaro, while impressive, isn’t the remarkable part...climbing it alongside a quadruple amputee while raising awareness for disabled kids and veterans (and donating $25,000 to the Mwereni Integrated School for the Blind) certainly is. The Call to Adventure Dan’s story, though, like so many others, didn’t start at this culminating point – it started years before with many trials and tribulations. Back in high school, Dan knew he wanted to play college football.  While a talented and disciplined player, he was considered undersized for his position as a middle linebacker (at 5’9” 190lbs give or take) and nobody expected him to play college football. Not only did Dan make the team of a Division I school, he set a record for most unassisted tackles his junior year.   Possibly even more impressive: he still owns the record for most unassisted tackles in one game many years later (he set the mark pretty high). After college, Dan entered corporate America.  While he was doing okay for himself financially, he found himself emotionally drained from the unfulfilling work.  At one point in his career, Dan even brought in $34,000 in a single day.  A great day by anyone's standards, to be sure. For Dan, it was the worst day of his life. Dan realized he wasn’t living the life he was advising others to live and this self-reflection led to an epiphany: you can’t change others by telling them what to do, you can only change others by setting the example and living the part. So Dan set a date to climb Mount Kilimanjaro with Kyle Maynard to show veterans and kids with disabilities around the world that regardless of the challenges they face, no obstacle is too great to conquer. In 2012, Dan and his team conquered Mount Kilimanjaro. And now he's off conquering new and greater obstacles. Dan's Hero's Journey This is just a short intro to Dan Adams – an incredibly intelligent, compassionate and driven person.  In today’s broadcast, I sit down with Dan to dig into his story and find out how he did what he did (and what he's planning for the future). Just one of the remarkable things we talk about: how Dan uses disciplined visualization to achieve success (from visualizing the plays and tackles he’s going to make the night before a game, to the visualization process for creating an award winning initiative from scratch). Simply put – if you’re interested in improving yourself or your performance in any aspect of your life, you HAVE to listen to this interview.  Dan’s the real deal and we dig into exactly what he did to create success in so many aspects of his life.  I know I personally took a ton of notes and plan on listening to this podcast more than once as I develop the projects I'm working on. So enjoy today's broadcast and please leave a review on iTunes! when you finish. What Dan Adams and I talk about: How Dan transitioned from corporate America to founding an award winning movement in less than two years How Dan took the leap into doing work he's passionate about Why the first step is the hardest (but also the most important) The importance of adversity and taking big leaps Dan’s 2 painful and personal experiences that changed his life The importance of embodying the virtues we want to see in others (and living the life we want to see others live) How Dan uses visualization to manifest his life on a daily basis (seriously, he's set national records and won massive awards using this technique) What it’s like to start with no experience, no resources, and no connections, yet still craft and bring into reality an award winning project The power of focusing on one thing at a time How Dan creates success in his life through persistent focus and discipline How Joseph Campbell’s “Hero's Journey” influenced Dan’s personal creative journey How Dan built an award winning mission by learning from others and connecting the dots How fear is an indicator to take the first step and a guidepost that you’re headed in the right direction The power of expressing authentic gratitude for another persons work as a way to start a powerful relationship Why having the mindset of creating value for others will always lead you to success How Dan bootstrapped a massively successful personal change initiative (and how next year will be even better) Why you need to embrace Neverland (the Peter Pan story Neverland, not Michael Jackson’s ranch) Awesome Quotes: On the need for adversity: When everything is comfortable we don’t take the steps we need to evolve. [tweet] On fear (and courage): Whenever I fear something I go right at it.  I see fear as the accelerator.
