Patriarchy is made up of two Latin words, meaning “father power” or “ruling “father.” Jake Stika—the co-founder and Executive Director of Next Gen Men—notes when we look at society, we see examples of patriarchal structures. It could be familial, with the father as the breadwinner and protector. It could be systemic, with monarchies and lords.In modern times, one of the two spheres where the most power is held is Fortune 500 companies. Only 32 out of 500 CEOs are female (7%), so it’s easy to see the power is still patriarchal. Global heads of state are still only 7% female representation. People don’t believe we exist in a patriarchy, but it’s easy to demonstrate. Everyone is affected by these structures. How do we change that? Why is change so necessary? Listen to this episode of Content Callout for a deep, eye-opening, and important conversation about redefining the roles of men in society.

I'm joined by the dynamic Jake Brown on the show today. A man who has written amazing books about the music business, and everything that goes into music writing and production. His books span across all genres, ranging from Country, RnB, Hip Hop, and Pop. Celebrating his 50th and latest book on the show with me, Jake Brown's ‘ Behind the Boards' features behind the scenes stories of country music's most notable artists, running from Tim McGraw, Clint Black, Vince Gill, Blake Shelton, Keith Urban and so many more. Jake moved into Nashville in 2003 with only two books published at the time. Nashville has been more than a home for him, as it has sparked the inspiration behind his multiple book series. It was here that Jake started focusing on writing his books based on the interviews he booked with songwriters like Jack Douglas, Eddie Kramer, and Bob Ezrin. In the span of 8 years, Jake was able to write 18 books. Jake was driven into depression mode when his dog Hanover died. Focused on how to best cheer himself up, Jake started writing his Behind the boards Nashville series. He began contacting Country song producers and writing the Nashville Songwriter. It was during his book series that Jake began interviewing and learning from songwriters and producers like Dave Cobb, Paul Waley, Shane McNally, Ross Copperman, Zach Crowl, Darius Rucker, Frank Rogers, Miranda Lambert, Kenny Chesney, and Nobert Putman. Different types of Country Song producers. While interviewing songwriters, producers, and singers. Jake noticed there are basically two types of country song producers. Track producers - These are producers who play all the instruments and work on the entire track in the home studios. Old School producers - these are producers who take a more traditional vibe of getting the entire band together for a weekend solely focused on producing music at the studio. Old school producers can go as far as knocking out a couple of number one hits in an afternoon. Jake tells the story of how Darius Rucker's friend and Brad Paisley's producer, Frank Rogers worked on a single album in one afternoon which went on to knock out a couple of number one hits in Nashville. There's a blend of both unique, short, and long-term relationships between singers, songwriters and producers in Nashville, and Country music as a whole. Jake, for one, has interviewed singer-producer duos that have a 10 - 30 year bond of working together. In his latest book, Jake also dives into interesting stories of individuals that started off trying to become singers, only to end up working and enjoying songwriting and production. And also how singers, songwriters, and producers build connections that end up being lifetime relationships from the most unlikely of scenarios, with one, in particular, being between Taylor Swift and Nathan Chapman. With over 300 number one hits included in his book and interviews, Jake dives into the behind the scenes backstories of Country's biggest stars in the last 20 - 30 years. How vulnerable they were when first starting out and how they've been able to grow, adapt, and overcome over time to become the superstars they are today. Music production is a diverse process and works differently for every producer. It could be a long process of listening to thousands of different songs and picking just 30. Or, it could be an overnight sensation of writing, drafting, and producing number one hits in just one night. The future of music. With technology being the driving force over so many industries today, Music has also been majorly affected, both positively and negatively by both technology and the internet. Streaming, Jake says, is the future of music. With 70% of record sales for weekly billboards coming from online streams and downloads, there's no denying the revenue powerhouse that the internet has proven to be. Ringtones used to be a proven phenomenon in providing revenue for singers, but those days are all but gone. There's also a trend of 360 types of deals where labels now get a piece of the live show revenues, a phenomenon that wasn't present in the past. If you want to know more about the diverse and changing art in music production, you can hop over to YouTube, where Jake has over 100 hundred videos where through the countless interviews, he gives a broader outlook of how hits are produced and distributed. Timestamps 03:58 How Jake started writing his book series 05:16 Working with different producers 08:09 What Jake's books entail 10:40 The diverse art of music production 15:15 How the music industry is taking shape 20:26 The business aspect of music production 24:30 Easy E and the Hip Hop side of music 25:51 What Jake hopes you'll get from the book 27:27 Jake's backstory and how it's connected to his production career. 31:41How music in the 70s and 80s was produced 34:48 Support community for different musicians 35:20 the underappreciated value of sound engineers 40:40 The growth of home studios 43:22 What's next for Jake Brown? 46: 58 Listen to “Connected” by James Kevin O'Connor Quotes It takes you on an entertainment roller coaster and still acts as a reference guide. The main role of my book series is to give you a 3D outlook into how country music is produced behind the scenes. The most important role of a songwriter in Nashville is to reflect the life of the audience through the music and lyrics. That's why so many songwriters in Nashville talk about getting their ideas while driving to work or during their everyday conversations. Through the interviews done, you get an amazing combination of the different ways that records come alive. And ultimately, the more music you listen to, the more educated you become.

We're going to dig into some strategies to help you not only survive… but thrive… RIGHT NOW. Honestly… that wasn't what I was originally planning to focus on in this interview… because we're talking with an expert on competition and resilience. This is a guy who helps athletes… as well as people from all walks of life… perform at their best. But when we started to dig into some of the specific things top athletes do to perform at world-class levels… we started to bring the conversation to applying them to help you to navigate some of the rough stuff that's hitting us right now. Whether you want to call it “Pandemic fatigue” or “COVID fatigue” it's rampant. It involves the feelings of being drained, overwhelmed, frustrated… especially because we're not sure when all of this stuff is going to get better. And if we let it… pandemic fatigue can totally drain our energy… our creativity… our performance. And heck… even our ability to experience joy and peace.

What do you think? What stood out to you from this convo with Jake? I loved each of his suggestions… but one specific thing I started to do IMMEDIATELY was to put some specific stuff on my calendar to look forward to. Things for work. Things for family and friends. Quick adventures. They don't have to be BIG things (although I did schedule some ACTUAL travel - don't worry… I'll do it safely!). They can be small but intentional things. But I can already feel a difference. Those milestones are SO important… especially right now! What did you dig? What did it stir up? I want to hear from YOU!

Jake and Austin Deraaff are twin brothers based out of the “big apple.” After 24 long months of college, they knew this “traditional route” wasn't the best option for them. After calling it quits and dropping out of school, they found an online course on how to make money in real estate with no money down. After being told by every friend, family and colleague that they COULD NOT do it, they took a leap of faith and committed. After seven long months of NOT closing a deal, they finally made their first wholesale. That changed their lives and gave them proof of concept and the permission to take massive action into the real estate space. Shortly afterwards, they did three more and then soon became close to 30. To date, the brothers have flipped and wholesaled around 60+ homes. Some of their flips have been promoted by local magazines. Their goal is to own 250+ units by February 2021. Their mission to help people build wealth through real estate investing and give their partners safe and secure returns. What you'll learn about in this episode: How the brothers focus on single-family residential properties in the range of $450,000-600,000 in the city, with an average profit of $35,000 per deal How their team is structured, how many rehab properties they've done, and the average profit per rehab How the brothers have relocated their business to a physical office, and what they have planned for further expansion of their business How hiring and delegating work to employees has been critical for their growth in 2020, and how the team will continue to expand going forward How Jake and Austin find their investment deals through many different lead generation streams Why taking massive action was critical for their success, and why their first year was their greatest challenge What big mistakes the brothers made when starting out, and how they course corrected and began to see success What challenges the brothers face operating in the competitive and challenging market of New York City What surprising impact the outbreak of the global pandemic has had on Jake and Austin's investing business Resources: Website: https://www.raven3.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/raven3-home-buyers/ Jake's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jake-deraaff-b05b46108/ Austin's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/austinderaaff/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Raven3HomeBuyers/ Additional resources: Website: www.TheMentorPodcast.com Website: www.ConnectWithTheMentor.com Get Ron's $599 Wholesaling course for FREE when you join his Gold Club for ONLY $59 a month! – https://thementorpodcast.com/GC87 Register for Ron's Upcoming Events: Website: www.TheMentorPodcast.com/events Or Call: (888) 563-7214
In this really informative chat with Jake Parrott, National Sales Representative for spirits importer Haus Alpenz, some of the topics we cover include: How Jake took a hobbyist interest in spirits and turned it into a profession - in essence, the sort of story that a lot of our listeners might find inspiring. How Haus Alpenz grew to become one of the foremost champions of spirits and fortified wines that don’t often make it to the US.

Then, we conduct a two-bottle tasting of Haus Alpenz spirits, including Pasubio Vino Amaro and Dolin Genepy. We also cover a lot of the ins and outs of the spirits importation and distribution game - including how bottles make their way to the US from abroad and how various regulatory and logistical hurdles are cleared.

Today on the Brain Booster we have with us Jake Hutt from Stanford GC. Take a look at what Jake is doing on Instagram. It is refreshingly different as he combines golf coaching with psychology, philosophy and music. (This is a revised version of the Podcast, sorry about the technical quality to the start of the show this week, thanks for your feedback) Yes music! You need to take a look to find out what I mean! We get the chance today to really look at a great story of a coach evolving. How Jake went from a hockey player to a ‘natural’ golfer to then someone who was drowning in the technicalities of the golf swing. We talk about the frustrations of trying to take your swing ‘changes’ onto the golf course. How he tried everything to do this only to run up against brick wall after brick wall. How actually filming your swing ON COURSE can reveal so much about your actual tendencies. The only tendencies that really matter are the ones you display when the golf course has an effect on the way you feel. We then look at Jake’s view on some existing cultural beliefs about the game. How you should ALWAYS aim at small targets? Should you? Does that work for everyone? How would it be if you didn’t line up to anything? Wow that would be really too far out!! But what if you gave it a try? What happens if you just aim at the GREEN and not the pin? Again so much of what we talk about today is totally counterintuitive. But could it work for you? How music helps Jake with his creative mind. How music can really get you to REMEMBER in a unique way. As I said a refreshingly different approach by a refreshingly engaging young coach who is prepared to step away from orthodoxy and is also prepared to keep learning and asking valuable questions.

GUEST BIO Gino Barbaro is the co founder of Jake and Gino LLC, one of the two duos who started their investing journey with their first 24 units. Gino started off as a restaurant owner for 25 years but that did not stop him from experimenting into the real estate space to grow their portfolio to more than 1600 units of multifamily apartments. Gino did not stop there, he went along and built an educational company with his partner Jake under the well known Jake & Gino umbrella. Gino is a certified professional coach and he believes that when doing business, what matters to him more is the service and fulfillment he can provide to his clients rather than the returns he could possibly acquire from them.

Today’s episode features Jake Schuster, sports performance coach, consultant and researcher hailing from Boston, Massachusetts Jake has his MSc from renowned Loughborough University in the UK and completed work towards his doctorate in New Zealand with the national Rugby Sevens teams through the Rio Olympics. He has published in the on both rugby and force velocity profiling and has several ongoing research projects further detailing what exactly it is that makes people fast, and how they can get faster. Jake has spent that past year working as the Senior Sports Scientist for Vald Performance, traveling the world visiting elite sporting clients and getting a unique insight into global best practices. Jake previously appeared on episode #109 where he talked at length on how he was integrating cutting edge exercises and technology into a training model for track and field athletes, particularly sprinters featuring his utilization of Alex Natera’s isometrics and force plate analysis. Jake’s knowledge and abilities are a very impressive blend of both understanding science and data trends, while also having a creative and integrative coaching mind. This integrative ability is just one thing that makes me thrilled to have Jake back for another episode. On today’s show, Jake and I discuss the optimal relationship between sport science and coaching (if you aren’t in a high performance department you may want to skip to around the 30:00 mark in the show), speed development and hamstring injury prevention, evolving thoughts on Frans Bosch work, robust running and water bags, concepts from force plates that show up in acceleration, and more. Today’s episode is brought to you by SimpliFaster, supplier of high-end athletic development tools, such as the Freelap timing system, kBox, Sprint 1080, and more. Key Points International differences in sport science utilization How Jake sees the optimal relationship between sport science/data and the art of coaching Speed development and hamstring injury prevention in the context of team sports Jake’s evolving thoughts on the work of Frans Bosch and waterbag training Force plate’s transfer to other skills aside from vertical jumping and landing Aspects of force plate measurements that transfer highly to acceleration Questions and topics for this year that Jake is considering “The best and first question (in a sport science/monitoring situation) is to talk to the athlete” “(Regarding the interaction of sport science and coaching) People don’t talk to each other now, we are always on our phones, looking at numbers” “The teams that have very few injuries, especially running soft tissue injuries, they make darn sure that their athletes are exposed to maximum velocity running very often. At least once every 5 days. The teams that say “80%’s fine… they often have more (hamstring injuries)” “The eccentric hamstring question… if anyone thinks it’s still a question, then they are paying too much attention to twitter” “We have one identified, modifiable risk factor for hamstring injuries in the literature and that is eccentric hamstring strength, and we have a whole lot of research underneath that that shows that it is fascicle length that is one of the main morphological determinants and we can affect that with eccentric hamstring training” “One of my favorite variables on a force plate is eccentric deceleration rate of force development; how fast we can brake” “The countermovement test (on a force plate) is an idiot proof test of neuromuscular status” “Concentric rate of power development gets absolutely caned on twitter for whatever odd reason… it’s a brilliant metric… if they just named it acceleration nobody would say anything because we are looking at watts per second… when we saw that go up in sprinters their 60m improved and their coach said they were getting better out of the blocks” “In our group,

Today’s episode features Jake Tuura. Jake is a collegiate strength and conditioning coach, currently working at Youngstown State University. Prior to YSU, Jake was an assistant S&C coach at the University of Minnesota-Duluth. Jake runs the website jackedathlete.com which helps athletes gain copious amounts of muscle, hit PRs in the weight room, and improve athletic performance. Jake recently wrote one of the most popular articles of the year on Just Fly Sports “Jacked and Athletic: Training Wisdom for Simultaneous Muscle and Performance Gain” where he laid out a fantastic blend of ideas on muscle, strength and tendon training. He is also well known on his Instagram where he frequently deadlifts over 600lbs, dunks basketballs, and shows means of how he integrates the work of great minds like Adarian Barr and Dr. Keith Baar. As with many young coaches who are helping to push the field forwards, training themselves is a huge portion of the equation. Jake is actually a big reason that I got Dr. Keith Baar on the show, as the results he’s gotten from Dr. Baar’s methods have been outstanding in helping him resolve his tendon and knee pain. He also has great practical thoughts on the fundamental differences between athletic movement and what happens in most barbell lifts as they are traditionally coached. On today’s show Jake and I chat about hypertrophy and muscle building in the context of athletic development, Jake’s case against the “hypertrophy phase” of training, barbell cluster training for athletes, and his vertical jump training ideas. Today’s episode is brought to you by SimpliFaster, supplier of high-end athletic development tools, such as the Freelap timing system, kBox, Sprint 1080, and more. Key Points How to increase muscle mass while trying to stay as athletic as possible Jake’s case against the “hypertrophy phase” in sports performance programs Utilization of cluster training for performance Jake’s own experience with tendon training methods and means How Jake used squatting every day to reduce his knee pain Case studies and examples of implementing Keith Baar’s tendon health session trainings Jake’s recent experience in jump training and “meathead dunks” Jake Tuura Quotes “(In barbell squats) If you take someone at 75% and make them do a set of 10, you are going to get some pretty ugly compensation to get all those reps” “(As an athlete) If you are going to do things that involve training to failure, try isolation type movements” “(For hypertrophy-clusters with an athletic emphasis) Instead of traditional 4x10 at a load where you are grinding it out and it feels terrible, you do double the sets and half the reps” “If you are killing yourself in the weightroom with grinding reps, you are not going to be able to go and perform high quality skill work” “For 2 months I squatted every single day, go in do few warm up sets, max out… after this, I went to the court to play basketball… no knee pain” “Load your tendon over and over… load it in the morning and load it in the evening… if you give me an excuse to lift twice a day, I’m going to use it” “I feel much more sturdy doing (long duration extreme ISO’s), by doing them I can manage my tendon pain so much… I dunked every day for 10 days with no pain” “(Regarding Jake’s tendon pain) rest did not help one bit” “Band assisted jumps are not the movement of dunking a basketball… maybe you are not going inside edge… maybe your timing is way off. It’s not just physiology there are so many components to athleticism that you are missing if you are not going and doing it” “(2 Things to improve jumping and dunking) … getting on the court more often, and doing the tendon stuff to stay healthy” About Jake Tuura @jaketuura Jake Tuura, MS, CSCS is a collegiate strength and conditioning coach. He currently works at Youngstown State University.
As a busy entrepreneur, it can be incredibly difficult to do all the things. And when you're working IN your business, you're likely not taking a strategic role and working ON the business. In this week's episode of the This Week In Weddings podcast, we're chatting with an entrepreneur who hired full-time employees to replace himself in the daily operations so that he could take a more strategic role and pursue other business interests. About our guest: After a brief stint in the entertainment industry, Jake Anderson discovered his passion for lighting design and the rest was history. He founded Lighting Professors in 2012 with the intention to transform events around Central Virginia through careful and innovative lighting design. Since then, Lighting Professors has grown by leaps and bounds and Jake has had the opportunity to grow his team and move to a 2,000+ square foot warehouse. This shift has allowed him to take a step back and maintain his role as strategic manager, while developing his newest endeavor, FêteTech, with the goal of providing technology solutions that eliminate friction for event professionals everywhere. In this episode, listeners will hear about: Jake's background and how he went from booking talent to DJ'ing to lighting professional Why Jake decided to replace himself in his own company How Jake oversees his company while living three hours away from the business Jake's suggestions for business owners who might want to step away and take a more strategic role Want to connect with Jake?

Sometimes chasing your dream requires you to walk away from the path you thought was laid out before you and make a leap and take a risk. If you allow others to tell you what’s right for your life, then chances are that you’ll encounter anxiety. In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, we’re talking to someone who has learned how to find peace and purpose in life. Jake Heilbrunn is a TEDx speaker and bestselling author of Off the Beaten Trail, endorsed by multiple NYT bestsellers. He has spoken across the US and internationally to 12,000+ people about replacing anxiety with purpose and creating a career you love. He is the co-founder of The Idea Collective, which helps thought leaders get their message out through speaking engagements and TEDx talks. Conquering anxiety When do you experience anxiety? When Jake went to college at age 18, he broke out with hives and rashes due to severe anxiety. Doctors couldn’t help, and he became depressed and questioned everything about his life. Jake left school with a backpack and flew to Guatemala, where he taught English and lived in the jungle for several months. When he learned mindfulness, meditation, peace, and purpose, he experienced a 180-degree shift. He soon learned that many young people are battling anxiety, so Jake felt the calling to help others through his speaking opportunities and writing his book. TWEET: Anxiety was debilitating, so once I found out what helped mine, I knew I could help others with the same thing. #chasingdreams Social media How much time do you spend on social media each day? Statistics show that American teenagers spend an average of 4 hours daily on social media! It’s the place where dangerous comparisons are made, and each one of us can play a part in changing the narrative. Social media can be used for good, but we all fall into the trap of viewing others’ lives as “perfect,” because of the selective glimpses we get. We have to remember that we see what people want us to see, and much of it isn’t real. We can see the same post as thousands of people, but we may have a different perception. Jake explains how our brains can be changed because of the influence of social media. TWEET: Social media plays a huge role in the lives of American teenagers, and it is changing their brains. #chasingdreams Taking a leap How do you know which path to follow? Jake didn’t know what career path he would follow after college, but he saw someone’s Instagram post about a meaningful trip to Mexico, and he decided to pay $1000 for a trip. Jake says the trip “called out to me.” As if the universe reinforced his decision, he won $1000 in an unrelated book marketing contest the next day. On his trip to Guatemala, he met the person who later became his business partner. Sometime later, they started The Idea Collective to help people develop TEDx talks. Their company has grown to a team of 13 people. TWEET: Knowing you’re not alone means everything. #chasingdreams OUTLINE OF THIS EPISODE: [1:03] What’s happened since Jake’s last appearance [2:58] Jake’s journey to mental health [5:23] How Jake’s perception has changed [10:53] Positivity that can be negative [12:56] What influences you the most [16:05] Jake’s company and his role [24:31] Following a gut instinct [28:56] A place of positivity RESOURCES MENTIONED: Jake is previously featured on Episode 63 Jake on Facebook Jake on Instagram Jake on LinkedIn Jake’s Website Jake’s TEDx--How to Replace Anxiety with Purpose Jake’s Jack Canfield Interview Jake’s Behind-the-Scenes interview TWEETS YOU CAN USE: TWEET: I felt a calling to help others come through anxiety and find their purpose. #chasingdreams TWEET: Not knowing what you want to do is OK. #chasingdreams TWEET: One of our core values is radical transparency. #chasingdreams

What’s holding you back? So often when people—especially entrepreneurs—create content, build a website, or just make anything, the creative process gets stuck in a toxic cycle of perfectionism. It’s tempting to work and work on a project, but no matter how much of your heart, talent, and resources you invest in that project, it feels like it’s never good enough. Breaking free from that cycle is one of the most beneficial things that you can do for your business and yourself. This is one way that Jake Ballentine found success as a musician and entrepreneur.

For him, it really is about just trusting yourself to take those first steps and allowing yourself to be called by the mission and pull.

In this episode, Jake Kushner, pediatric endocrinologist specializing in helping people with type 1 diabetes, discusses the best strategies to live and thrive with T1D, especially as it relates to diet and exercise. We also discuss why many patients who control their blood sugar with high amounts of exogenous insulin are at a substantially higher risk than people who can control their blood sugar at lower levels of insulin. This concept has great implications for non-diabetics as well considering the increasing prevalence of diseases related to insulin resistance.

The Top 4 Influencer Marketing Mistakes and How To Avoid Them This episode of the Ace the Gram Podcast episode goes over the top 4 mistakes brands make in influencer marketing and how to avoid them.

LEGO might be open to your ideas now, but it wasn’t always like that. Afraid of legal blowback, they once turned away ideas – and largely ignored their adult fan base. Jake McKee helped form LEGO’s first community team, and usher in a new era of openness at the company. He opened the lines of communication between adult consumers of their products, who had more discretionary income than the kids, driving home the understanding that LEGO was not just a child’s toy company. Plus: Finding the job you want, not necessarily the job that’s posted How Jake made busy people find time to talk about community Building super user programs Our Podcast is Made Possible By… If you enjoy our show, please know that it’s only possible with the generous support of our sponsors: Higher Logic and Structure3C. Big Quotes “Why not ask? Look past the job postings that are out there and actually go for something that interests you. Put aside the fear of rejection for a minute and just go for it. If they say no, then you go to the next thing. It’s not the end of the world.” -@patrickokeefe “One of the things that I found fascinating when I got [to LEGO] was how little interest most of my colleagues, at that time, had in talking about adult consumers. … When I would go and try to talk to colleagues, they wouldn’t take my meetings. They had better things to do and giving them the benefit of the doubt, at that time, the adult fans did make up a really small footprint, and they didn’t necessarily see the vision that I had. That’s not what their task was.” -@jakemckee “A super user program is a fan program, it’s an engagement program. The idea is, there are people in your community that are actively, knowingly, participating more than others and your desire [as a community owner] is to see more of that activity and to maintain those folks doing amazing things, so you put together formal programs that recognize and incentivize and reward that activity.” -@jakemckee “It takes a few years for any individually, emotionally-driven type of activity, where you engage real people in real time, whether it’s community or super user or anything else, [to mature]. There’s a build to that. You’re building a relationship and like any relationship, you won’t get married on the first date for a reason. It takes a while to get to that point of effectiveness.” -@jakemckee “There’s a vulnerability to community that I don’t think people understand or appreciate. When you start talking about it in terms of dating, they get a little closer, but it still feels a little odd to use that metaphor. The reality is, somebody that’s spending time on the community is making themselves vulnerable. They are coming in, they’re opening themselves up, they’re spending time in that place, they’re building a profile. … It’s really wonderful in the beginning and we start opening ourselves up and that’s scary, but it becomes really comfortable and that comfort is an absolutely amazing thing you want to maintain.” -@jakemckee About Jake McKee Jake McKee calls himself the community guy (as in communityguy.com) because he’s been developing community for a long, long time. Jake’s always joked that this started in 1998 when we finally convinced brands to add email addresses to their web sites. Over the years, he’s had a series of dream jobs: Jake started his career building websites for the Dallas Stars, Texas Rangers, and a multitude of brands when websites were brand new. He then developed the community engagement strategy and execution at LEGO, eventually landing a Wired cover story due to his work. Jake built a successful social media consulting practice, Ant’s Eye View that he and his partners sold to PwC, where he worked on massive digital consulting projects. He ran the Apple Global Support Community, one of the largest, most active communities on the web. And today, Jake is running Community5, a consulting practice focused on building and designing online communities and fan engagement programs.

Jake Heilbrunn Jaime Jay welcomes Jake Heilbrunn to today's podcast. He is an up and coming leader in his generation. At 19 years old, he self published an inspirational memoir titled Off the Beaten Trail. His inspirational videos and motivational talks have already reached thousands. He has also been featured in media outlets including The San Diego Union Tribune, Thought Catalog, and Psychology Today. Tune in for some valuable insights on how surfing the unknown can pave your way for success! Down the Low Path Growing up, Jake was a good student and played soccer for many years. He planned on going to college, but never really thought about other options. Shortly after entering college, however, he developed a chronic skin condition. “I realized that I was going on a path that I did not believe in.” –Jake Heilbrunn He was alone, and eventually became anxious for about 5 to 6 months. At the age of 18, he went through existential crisis. For this, he left college after the first semester and went backpacking at Guatemala for four months without a phone. Off the Beaten Trail Jake's amazing experience at Central America led him to write his book titled Off the Beaten Trail. It is a memoir about leaving an unfulfilling path to pursue a scary and exciting journey. It was unlike anything he has ever experienced. As a kid, Jake has traveled throughout America with his family. He has also went to England for a soccer trip. Those trips, however, were nothing sort of exotic. He knew that he needed to escape the confines of a system and be in a whole new different place. Kickstart to Success Jake knew about Kickstarter through a friend. He was writing the first draft of his manuscript when he was shown a video of a guy who biked from Oregon to Patagonia. That's when he got the idea. “You need to hit the ground running.” –Jake Heilbrunn It took him 5 months to prepare for the launch of his campaign trailer. After his trailer launch, he was able to raise an incredible amount of 3,000 US dollars in just 24 hours! He is really thankful that he was able to raise the funds to publish a professional quality book.

That plus we'll talk about self-actualizers, Steve Jobs, Jack Canfield, Jay Z, Dave Matthews, Abraham Lincoln, Sylvester Stallone, SW SW SW, and why in the world you want to take an entire summer or two, retyping the Great Gatsby… Questions and Topics Include: How Jake Got Jack Canfield to Write the forward to his book How Jake Ducey was listening to “Dare to Win' and followed Jack Canfields advice to write down 101 goals and what happened. What happened on November 20, 2010 Why we're all gambling on the biggest risk of all How Jake left school to chase his dreams of becoming a writer What happened with the Shaman in Guatemala (when he was not a very 'spiritual' person) Why “our lives are like onions and we want to live to live the tough flavorless part first” Why it's a trap to wait until we get x,y or z (even spiritual or self-discover experiences) to find happiness. What happened to Vic Revezo and how his death affected Jake How he had a near-death fall in Indonesia, and how locals risked their lives to save him What is destination addiction What's Jake's take on the Law of Attraction & Bob Proctor, and what we have to do to get the unconscious to help us get our desires What we can learn from Bonnie Ware who studied top regrets of people who were dying What is risk-ability? Why lack of evidence is not evidence of lack The story of Steve Jobs and ‘not evidence of lack' Why most of our fears are just ‘monsters under our bed' The story of Sylvester Stallone and how he got his start What Martin Luther King tells us about finding our freedom Why JK Rowling (author of Harry Potter) once considered herself the biggest failure she knew What's it mean from George Bernard Shaw to become ‘unreasonable' Why Martin Luther King knew he was going to be killed the next day (when he gave his I've been to the Mountaintop speech). Why most people are gambling on the biggest risk of all, that one day we'll find the time to do what we want.

Jake Heilbrunn is a passionate speaker, lifestyle blogger and the author of "Off the Beaten Trail", an inspiring memoir about his journey leaving college and solo backpacking through Central America at 18. He is dedicated to empowering people to live a life of purpose and fulfillment. Jake has been featured in multiple large publications including Psychology Today, Thought Catalog, and The San Diego Union-Tribune. Jake’s a great guy who’s only 19 years old at the time of this conversation and Aimee is excited to see where Jake goes with such a good start. Be sure you listen to hear Jake’s inspiring story. TWEET: Ep. 63: Jake Heilbrunn - Leaving Behind What’s Familiar and Venturing Off the Beaten Trail @Jake_Heilbrunn Stress & anxiety in college are almost an epidemic, & nobody talks about it. The catalyst to leading Jake Heilbrunn to eventually spend his 19th year of life backpacking through Central America was when he was diagnosed with, what he was told, was a chronic skin condition. The doctors were baffled and Jake came to believe that the cause of the condition was the stress and anxiety of college life. He believed was trying to live up to so many expectations that were coming at him from the outside, his body simply couldn’t handle it. Jake believes that the same phenomenon is experienced by other college students all the time but nobody’s willing to talk about it. On this episode of Chasing Dreams, you can hear how and why Jake is starting to talk about it and what he’s doing to help high school students prepare for the stresses of college life. I disconnected in order to connect. That’s what Jake Heilbrunn said about one of the reasons for his backpacking trip through Central America. He knew that he needed to do something for himself, something that was in pursuit of his own dreams instead of what everyone expected of him. Part of that was disconnecting from technology for weeks at a time. Not only did he find himself not missing it, he also discovered that he didn’t really need it as much as he thought. He disconnected with technology to reconnect with himself. You can hear Jake’s encouraging story on this episode. TWEET: I #disconnected in order to connect @Jake_Heilbrunn The potential we all have can’t be underestimated. The lessons Jake Heilmann learned while backpacking through Central America are many, but one that has stuck with him powerfully and that he says to students that he speaks with at high schools around the country is that we all have incredible potential that is waiting to be accessed. Every human being has the power, the ability, the talent, the creativity to make something better, something greater of their lives. But it takes determination and courage to step out of what has become comfortably normal and take a risk for the sake of releasing that potential. Jake talks about what it’s like to experience that kind of fear and freedom, on this episode of Chasing Dreams. How Jake made a pitch to Jack Canfield, Drew Brees, and Chris Guillebeau. With the release of his new book, “Off The Beaten Trail,” Jake Heilbrunn is joining the ranks of many who have written and published a book. And as part of Jake’s efforts to promote and distribute the book Jake knew that an endorsement from a high profile personality would go a long way in providing the social proof he needed to make the book the success he wanted it to be. So what did he do? He started pitching people - like Jack Canfield and Drew Brees. Though neither of those ever responded, he didn’t give up until finally he got a very encouraging endorsement from Chris Guillebeau. It’s a testament to what can be done when you persist and refuse to allow discouragement to rule. Find out more about Jake’s journey from high school senior to self-published author, on this episode.
