In July, the Reverend Monsignor Anthony R. Frontiero, S.T.D., took office as Vicar General and Moderator of the Curia of the Archdiocese for the Military Services, USA (AMS). In this edition of Catholic Military Life, Msgr.

Mitochondria are essential organelles found in the cells of living organisms. They are often referred to as the powerhouses of the cell because their main function is to produce cellular energy.    They play a crucial role in converting nutrients into usable energy through a series of biochemical reactions. Understanding the importance of mitochondria and their role in energy production is essential for addressing health issues and maintaining overall well-being.   In this episode, host Sinclair Kennally had the pleasure of interviewing Laura Frontiero, a Nurse Practitioner and Mitochondrial Expert. Laura is the founder of Bio-Radiant Health and has been serving patients for over 22 years. Together, they dive deep into the root causes of mitochondrial dysfunction and how it affects our overall health.   If you're tired of feeling like crap, despite possibly being gluten-free and practicing yoga, this episode is a must-listen for you! Laura shares her insights on how to restore your mitochondrial matrix and achieve rapid results on your health journey. She unveils the secrets to unlocking your body's true potential and healing from within.   They also discuss the importance of mind-body-spirit integration and the role of stress in disrupting our mitochondrial function. Laura's expertise in supporting the nervous system for optimal healing is truly remarkable, and you'll get a chance to witness her in action during the episode.   But that's not all! They also touch on the power of embracing their past experiences, even the ones where they may have made mistakes. Laura shares her personal journey of spending 20 years learning and growing, which ultimately led her to the impactful work she does today.   So, if you're ready to take control of your health and experience rapid, meaningful results, we invite you to tune in to this episode of "Your Health Reset." Timestamps   [00:02:22] Getting it wrong. [00:04:26] Mitochondria and energy production. [00:06:12] Physical and Invisible Energy. [00:10:00] Mitochondrial energy support.

[00:25:44] Keto as a fat burner. [00:29:08] Red light therapy and cold exposure. [00:32:07] Flushing out and rebuilding. Highlights   Laura Frontiero emphasizes the importance of not ignoring our gut health. Our gut is responsible for processing food and providing fuel to our mitochondria. Without a healthy gut, our mitochondria won't be able to survive or cannot function optimally.   She highlights the difference between online resources and working with a practitioner for a gut restoring protocol. While there is a wealth of information available online, nothing beats personalized guidance from a knowledgeable professional. They can dig deep, support you, and provide a multi-layered approach to flushing out and rebuilding your gut.    Laura also touches upon the mind-body connection and the impact of stress on our overall well-being. It's not just about the physical aspects of healing; it's also about supporting our nervous system and addressing stress. It's about truly understanding the connection between our mind, body, and spirit and actively working on reducing stress. By supporting our nervous system, we create an environment where our bodies can heal.  Subscribe to the Podcast here: Apple | Spotify | Stitcher Connect with Sinclair Kennally: Instagram: @detoxrejuvenation Website:  Detox RejuveNation™️

Audio of the 1973 opinion of the Court in Frontiero v. Richardson. When the case was argued in 1973, federal law provided that the spouses of men serving in the military became dependents automatically; but, the spouses of women who served in the military were not accepted as dependents unless they were dependent on their wives for over half of their financial support. So, when United States Air Force Lieutenant Sharron Frontiero applied to receive a dependent's allowance for her husband in 1968, she was denied the allowance because his income was not low enough to qualify. The question before the Court in this case was whether the federal law, having different qualification requirements based on the service member's sex alone, violated the Fifth Amendment's due process clause. The Court said it did, although they disagreed over the appropriate standard of review and the level of scrutiny to apply.   Access the full SCOTUS opinion with citations here: https://www.oyez.org/cases/1972/71-1694   Music by Epidemic Sound   *Introduction audio clip is taken from oral arguments audio file (at 00:27:17) given before the Supreme Court of the United States on January 17, 1973 - courtesy of oyez.org at  https://www.oyez.org/cases/1972/71-1694 released under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International License.

Greg entered the tech scene early in his career thanks to a friend who tipped him off on a sales job at a New York startup. He started out by literally sleeping in the office by night and making 150 cold calls per day. Unfortunately, his busy schedule and city lifestyle quickly led to burnout. After buying a one-way ticket to Thailand to decompress, Greg came back to the states and got a job at Twitter as a senior sales associate. Soon, he found himself falling back into his old bad habits, and starting formulating a nootropic beverage that would allow him to do his best work without negative side effects. Next, he worked at Stack Overflow on the enterprise sales team, which dried up during the pandemic. During 2020, he found the momentum he needed to finally become an entrepreneur and found NooWave. 17:56 - Find your “personal monopoly”Thanks to David Perell's Write of Passage course, Greg found himself talking about his nootropics hobby over and over. A classmate's interest provided the fuel he needed to get going.“There's this online writing course. I don't know if you guys know David Perell and Write of Passage….The very first week he has this section of the course where it's called ‘your personal monopoly.' So, I'm Greg Frontiero. I worked for these tech companies. I love nootropics. I am a professional wrestler. I do MMA stuff. And like, what is this zone where only I can talk about it and nobody else can touch me, right? What's my brand that nobody else writes about but me? And so I would say these nootropics things in these breakout rooms, and everybody had the same question, like what is a nootropic? I would tell that story I just told you, give you an example. Oh, I drink this coffee. And this guy, Robbie Crab who is like a performance speaking coach DMs me in the middle of me giving my speech about it and goes, ‘I want to buy this. Where can I buy this coffee?' And I was like, oh, like I make it. And he's like, you should sell it. And it was like immediately. So when I tell you I had NooWave in my head for six years, I actually launched the company in six weeks.”21:30 - Tap your networkGreg's first move was to write a letter about his new venture and send it to his network. The response was absolutely overwhelming, with everyone demonstrating interest in his product.“So I take this one blog post and I launch it to what I think is going to be crickets. No one's gonna care about it. I put it on my LinkedIn. I put it on like Twitter. I put it on whatever. It launches, and I swear to God, it's like a movie where every single person in my entire life like came out of the woodwork. Kids I haven't talked to her since kindergarten, teachers, coworkers, people at my MMA gyms, wrestler friends, everybody. Everybody in my life came out and. And I don't know if they necessarily gave a shit about like a nootropic coffee, but they were backing me and they sorta wrote it for me. It was just such a feel-good moment of, man. All that time in my life was for something, the connections and the people that you met. So we sold out our first run immediately.”25:49 - Cold call manufacturersMost companies require expensive minimums that are out of range for bootstrapped founders. Greg tapped deep into his salesman roots to find a coffee company that would work with him.“I'm also talking to all these manufacturers and how to do fulfillment and all that stuff. And it's a nightmare, right? Like when you're making this product and you have no money and resources and all these companies have giant minimums. And so now I'm looking at this and I'm looking at getting loans and small business loans and all that stuff. So this is what I tell everybody. I think if there's one thing I can tell people that is like the hardest part about starting a CPG brand is like the manufacturing process fucking sucks…The benefit of my experience is I'm so used to making 100 cold calls a day. I'm very used to that. And this is the old school of business. I am making like literally 10 phone calls a day to manufacturers in Seattle and talking to coffee people, talking to cacao people…That's how you have to do it. Honest to God. I'm telling you guys, this is not a thing where you can send an email and they're going to be opening your door, to maybe sell you 100 bags. You're just not going to get a response. So you have to beat them down and you have to call.”28:31 - Pray for good luckAfter Greg identified a coffee partner, he started getting bad vibes. At the last second, another fulfillment option reached out to him. They remain his partners to this day.“At the fucking last week, we're going here. This company is just waiting for me to write them the check. And side note, I fucking hated our sales rep, hated this guy. Just every conversation with him sucked. He would just speak to me and he'd be like, ‘Yeah, so about the formula, like is this right?' I was like, no, that's completely wrong. Like it's written down, you're responding in the same email. Just look! This is the person I'm gonna work with? We're about to launch and you fucked this up three times. And so we can't get on the same page. He's not responding for a week. And I was like, oh my God, this is going to go badly. I get this phone call. I won't say who we work with, because I don't know if they're big enough for me to reveal my secret sauce…so this angel woman calls me and she's like, Hey, I'm an upstate coffee roaster. And we really want to work with you.”33:55 - Monitor your pricingGreg's goal is to eventually reduce the price of NooWave so that his 20-year-old self could afford it.“I can't wait to get our price down, by the way. I think we were we're definitely a premium coffee right now, and I don't want to be. I want to be like and get inspired by Chris Cantino and Jaime Schmidt. All they get is pitched by brands that are like, ‘we're like the luxury, you know,' and it's awesome. By the way, at the time we sold a $30 coffee. So I can't throw stones at my glass house. But we had to, because I didn't have any money. And I was like, this is what it costs. I need to. I read Super Maker and it said to times it by three. So I'm going to do that. There's really basic stuff, but then I started doing it. And every iteration, we get a little bit cheaper and I'm going to continue to do that. Because I want the 23-year-old version of me to be able to afford this, and right now he couldn't. And that's not good.”36:59 - Find your true audienceGreg's first run sold out thanks to friends and family. It dropped sharply afterward, but he was able to bring sales back up thanks to tapping into his true target market: tech bros.“Here's what the truth is. Everybody in my life came out of the woodwork and bought it. Let's say 90% of those people dropped off. Because they weren't my target audience. They were like my mom, who's I don't need this. So then it's weird. It went immediately down, but I had this momentum of that Write of Passage, where all of my target audience are all these kind of people like me: these nerdy kind of tech-broey kind of dudes that are all now coming out of this course with their little newsletters that are all micro-influencers essentially. They all have like a thousand-person newsletters of all their friends and family. So I sponsor all their newsletters. They're all doing their unique projects. Word of mouth is a very real thing. So we started getting all these orders out of nowhere of people being like, this works. This coffee helps me focus, but it doesn't stress me out.”38:05 - Build in publicGreg writes a weekly newsletter rain or shine. It not only allows him to organize his thoughts on building the business, but has resulted in valuable feedback from his customers.“I do a weekly newsletter every Wednesday that is just like a personal blog. And I talk very openly about the business. And it's like very much building in public and saying, I tried this this week. It didn't work. I think I'm going to try this. What do you guys think? Hey, do you like this? So I'm like talking to my customers every week. They respond back. I have people I've never met that I have really deep-level conversations with on email. I've had phone calls with them afterwards. And actually, this is such a powerful thing for anyone who's listening. You know the whole like talk to your customers thing and nobody does it? I had a Google spreadsheet of everyone who bought this coffee. The first thing I did is I wrote every single person a personal letter, custom. If you bought it Ramon, ‘Thanks so much for buying this. I saw on your Twitter bio your DTC POD thing. I want to check out Trend too, let's get in a talk.' Handwritten…This is the crazy thing. At the end of every letter I was like, if you don't mind, please take a picture and post this. Even if it's not something you like, we need content. So now I have hundreds of bags. I have really roughly around 500 pieces of content. And I have enough to just post every day.”45:11 - Identify mentors who are one step aheadWhen you reach out to other product founders who were recently in your shoes, you can gain valuable wisdom that is fresh in their mind, without worrying about competition.“The best analogy is the ladder, where you don't want to talk to someone who's like sold a Unilever for $100 million dollars. They're not going to be able to help you. You want to talk to someone who's a year ahead of you. When I keep bringing up Chris from CROSSNET, that is a great guy to talk to because he's five years ahead. He did exactly what I want to do. He's already done it, but he's not far enough that he forgot what it was like to be where I'm at. And that's like a good sweet spot. There's so many people now, DTC has sort of exploded. And there's people 1-5 years ahead of me that I can chat with and I can trust. And it's always good that they're not competitive to me. So if someone's like candles, they're not going to like steal your shit. And you don't have to worry about like, oh, this person's going to snake me. They're not even in the same space. They're not going to start a coffee brand.”55:58 - Be prepared to grow slowlyWhen you are truly bootstrapped, you can't delude yourself with visions of overnight success. Greg recommends keeping your business as a side hustle for as long as possible.“If you're bootstrapping this thing, you need to do it from your job as a side hustle, or you need to have a significant amount of cash. Because it's not going to truly make money if you want to grow the business for a while. And you know, you see these revenue charts that people release and it's pretty common theme that year 1-3, it kind of just sucks. And there's something about that second, third year, fourth year you start seeing I'm able to pay myself now. And honestly, when I look at our numbers compared to people that have released historical numbers, I'm like, yeah, we're there. We're at two. So we're at six figures now. That's it. It's not impressive. If I paid myself now, it'd be mediocre. So like I said, we tried to grow too fast and we tried to cheat, and it just doesn't work. Whenever you try to copy someone without understanding why they did what they did, or why it's relevant to that company and why they did what they did, it's just a disaster. And every time we've done this methodical, long, like you can tell when the effort's there, it pays off in spades.”59:28 - Don't ignore AmazonYes, there are downsides to selling on Amazon, but the platform can also be an incredible option for bootstrapped founders who need revenue quickly.“So first and foremost, everybody who says I want to own the customer and the data and all that, they're absolutely correct. I would prefer that too. Who would not prefer that? I don't have that option. I'm a bootstrap person. I need to make money. And if I need to make money, I need to like suck at Jeff Bezos's tit and do the Amazon thing, it works really fucking well. Upon launch, it's like immediately now probably 50% of our revenue is from Amazon. Because it just kind of takes care of itself. Your conversion rate for Amazon is like 40% versus like 2% on your stores. And we have 80 five-star reviews. It's not unimpressive, but they're all five-star reviews. So it's great. And the testimonials there are great, it starts helping us with our copy. Don't discount Amazon. I would start it right away. It's a process to get on Amazon. It takes time and you got to do it. It's annoying and finicky and shitty. But I think building both in tandem is actually really great.” Watch the full interview here:  This episode is brought to you by OrderGroove and OpenStore:Visit  https://www.ordergroove.com/dtcpod/?utm_source=event&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=2022q1_dtcpodpodcast_thirdparty_demo_us&utm_content=demo  today to receive 2-months off your first contract.Visit https://open.store to get a free, no-obligation offer for your ecommerce business from OpenStore in 24 hours. Have any questions about the show or topics you'd like us to explore further? Shoot us a DM, we'd love to hear from you. Greg Frontiero  - CEO of NoowaveRamon Berrios - CEO of Trend.ioBlaine Bolus - COO of Omnipanel 

Steven P. Brown, professor of political science at Auburn University, has written a history of notable U.S. Supreme Cases and justices that hailed from Alabama. In Alabama Justice: The Cases and Faces That Changed a Nation (U Alabama Press, 2020), Brown reviews eight landmark cases which originated in Alabama and were eventually reviewed by the U.S. Supreme Court. Although most of these cases were reflective of the civil rights issues endemic to Alabama and other states in the American South of the mid-twentieth century, not all are race related. For example, a notable gender equity case, Frontiero v. Richardson, which was concerned with benefits discrimination based on gender, was an important decision in the history of women's rights. Brown also reviews the lives and times of three Supreme Court justices, John McKinley, John Archibald Campbell, and Hugo Black. Ian J.

I'm excited to have the CEO of Noowave, Greg Frontiero. We talk about growing ups, building a brand, Wrestling, and creating the first of many kick ass products. How the pandemic pushed him into trying new things and we discuss the benefits of Noowave's Flow State Coffee. This ultra creative human shares all this tips and tricks. Enjoy this weeks interview!

An introduction for those who haven't listened to episode 18 of the podcast: Greg Frontiero (@sfwgreg) is the founder of Noowave – a company that creates products for optimal mental health and function. Oh yeah, he's also a pro wrestler. Mr. Frontiero is a beast. And not just because he has arms bigger than my head. In the span of something like 4 months he's launched a company – a movement, really – that's taking the Internet by storm. Noowave is Greg's way of helping creative people make a living doing the one thing they love: being creative. Every time I talk to this guy I get the sense that he genuinely cares about seeing people pursue their highest ambitions. He's helping creatives out with his unparalleled commitment, energy, trust, and heartfelt care. Noowave is going to be a household name among creative writers, podcasters, bloggers, content creators, newsletter fanatics, Notion nerds, note-taking ne'er-do-wells, painters, poets, screenwriters – anyone who makes the world a better place with their hands and brains. And if you're listening to this podcast, that means you! Yeah, you. I see you. You're reading this now and thinking, “who, me? You mean I can make the world a better place with my goofy paintings?” Yes! Yes, of course you can. You can and you will. If you don't, Greg and I will come down to your house uninvited, and we won't leave until you start making more of those brilliant paintings of yours. Anyways, this episode's going to be a little different from my last encounter with Greg. First, it's not going to be 2 1/2 hours long like last time (though it very well could have). Second, I'll be tasting Noowave's first product – Flow State Coffee – for the first time LIVE in front of him. It's a moment that I've been anticipating for weeks. But if this episode shares anything in common with our last talk it's that it's highly caffeinated (by L-Theanine, to be precise), heavy on the cursing (wear headphones), and more fun than an upside down caramel macchiato.

Warning: what follows is a highly caffeinated conversation. Today I'm speaking with the mighty and magnificent Greg Frontiero (@Sfwgreg on Twitter). As his twitter handle foreshadows, this is not a safe for work episode. So put your kids to bed, grab your best headphones, and buckle in. This is a wild one. Greg who? Greg Frontiero is the founder of Noowave, a company that creates products for optimal mental health and function. His companies first product, Flow State Coffee, is designed to help you write your next 15,000 word Essay while interviewing Barrack Obama at the same time. In layman's terms, it's a coffee made with L-Theanine and Raw Cacao. In layman's layman's terms, it's a coffee that'll give you enough energy to present your dissertation without the anxiety of being on your first date. Listeners of my podcast know that I'd never plug a product this hard unless I've tried it and loved it. This episode is an exception. While I haven't had a sip of Greg's coffee, him and I are planning a future episode. The next time we record together, I'll take my first sip of his coffee. I'll either love it or hate it. And because I'm such a powerful influencer, it'll be a moment that'll either make or break his companies launch. Keep an eye out around the end of October for that episode! Anyways, this is a two and a half hour conversation. And you can be rest assured knowing we spent only around half an hour talking about his coffee. The rest of our talk reached into the depths and heights of life, creativity, soulless sales jobs, fear and loathing in New York City, meaningful work, Greg's career as a professional wrestler, favorite books, writing, creating a product you're proud to sell, and everything else you'd expect from the podcast. So, please enjoy! This episode is brought to you by my weekly newsletter, Hey Penguin.

In this HCI Podcast episode, I pay tribute to an American icon, Ruth Bader Gibsburg, who passed away this evening. I share her famous oral argument in front of the U.S. Supreme Court, Frontiero v.

Losing Weight = Easy. Does that formula even exist?! Laura Fronteiro explains exactly how weight loss can be easy and the way to do it. She exposes why calorie counting doesn't work, what the food industry is really doing to your body (spoiler alert: it's not for your benefit), and what the real addiction is to watch out for. This episode is full of helpful tips including what to eat while out, what to buy at the grocery store and the best alternative to the sweet and salty cravings (ahem: chips lover over here!).

This 1970's episode delves into RBG's work as an attorney leading the ACLU Women's Right's Project, taking on clients who had experienced gender-based discrimination. Poppy and Jeffrey hear from two of the plaintiffs in these cases - Sharron Cohen (of Frontiero versus Richardson) and Stephen Wiesenfeld (of Weinberger versus Wiesenfeld) on how RBG argued their cases.

“Equal protection of the laws” was granted to all persons by the 14th Amendment in 1868. But for nearly a century after that, women had a hard time convincing the courts that they should be allowed to be jurors, lawyers, and bartenders, just the same as men. A then-lawyer at the ACLU named Ruth Bader Ginsburg set out to convince an all-male Supreme Court to take sex discrimination seriously with an unconventional strategy. She didn’t just bring cases where women were the victims of discrimination; she also brought cases where men were the victims. In this episode, we look at how a key battle for gender equality was won with frat boys and beer.   The key voices: Carolyn Whitener, former owner of the Honk n’ Holler Curtis Craig, appellant in Craig v. Boren Fred Gilbert, lawyer who represented Craig in Craig v. Boren Mary Hartnett, adjunct professor at Georgetown Law Wendy Williams, professor emerita at Georgetown Law The key cases: 1873: Bradwell v. The State 1948: Goesart v. Cleary 1961: Hoyt v. Florida 1971: Reed v. Reed 1973: Frontiero v. Richardson 1975: Weinberger v. Wiesenfeld 1976: Craig v. Boren 1996: United States v.

Everyone knows Ruth Bader Ginsburg the Justice, but this week takes a look at Ruth Bader Ginsburg the creative ACLU attorney who helped shape intermediate scrutiny through gender disparity cases.  These cases, including Fronterio v. Richardson, Weinberger v. Wisenfeld,and Duren v. Missouri, show how equal protection and gender was first developed, often with unexpected methods and angles.  Brett and Nazim then cover the case of Lynch v. Morales Santana, which is either a continuation of Ginsburg's jurisprudence, or a totally new path based on immigration.  Law starts at (08:55).
