And so I realized if I wanted to move in a new direction in my life, I had to let go of some of these things in the past." ~ Chris AveryChris Avery spent the first part of his life battling the dark shadows of childhood molestation, physical abuse, and a 17-year addiction to drugs and alcohol. Realizing he needed to change his trajectory, Chris immersed himself in personal development, faith, and mentorship, ultimately transforming his life and achieving sobriety. Today, Chris is a dedicated coach, husband, and father. He is currently preparing for a monumental physical and mental feat: starting January 1, 2027, Chris will run the entire perimeter of the United States, completing an ultra-marathon (31.1 miles) every single day for 365 days.Key Discussion Highlights & TakeawaysThe Power of Environment: How Chris found sobriety by changing his circle, attending leadership events, and listening to over 10,000 hours of personal development audio. Redefining Forgiveness: Why Chris views forgiveness as a tool for his own freedom rather than for the perpetrator, and how seeing the humanity in others helped heal his deep anger. Shattering Limiting Beliefs: The incredible story of how Chris ran a full 26.2-mile marathon with absolutely zero training just to prove that our minds hold us back more than our physical abilities. The "One Mile" Strategy: How Chris built the discipline to run around America by setting a goal so small—running just one mile a day—that it was impossible to fail. The 5-Minute Marriage Hack: The simple nightly gratitude journaling practice Chris and his wife used for a year to save their struggling marriage and shift their focus to love and appreciation. ⏱️ Show Timestamps & Chapter Markings 00:00:00 - Welcome to The Remarkable People Podcast00:02:21 - Sponsor Read: Upgrade Your Truck with Maxzina00:03:44 - Chris Avery's Origin Story: Childhood Trauma & Abuse00:08:14 - 17 Years of Drug and Alcohol Addiction00:11:57 - The Turning Point: Finding Mentors & Personal Development00:16:12 - Stepping into Leadership & Finding Sobriety00:27:00 - How to Truly Forgive and Let Go of the Past00:43:00 - Moving to Utah & A Crazy Marathon Proposition00:48:45 - Running a Marathon with Zero Training to Break Limiting Beliefs00:52:19 - The Next Massive Goal: Running the Perimeter of America00:54:12 - Starting Small: Building Trust with One Mile a Day01:03:00 - How a 5-Minute Nightly Gratitude Journal Saved Chris's Marriage01:08:48 - Connect with Chris: chrisrunsamerica.comTo watch the full episode and get all special offers and details, visit our official website at https://DavidPasqualone.com/ChrisAvery now! Support the showTHE NOT-SO-FINE-PRINT DISCLAIMER: While we are very thankful for all of our guests, please understand that we do not necessarily share or endorse the same beliefs, worldviews, or positions that they may hold.

A tribute to my Mother, Geneva Sherman SizemoreThis episode is unlike any other episode of Real Talk With Reginald D.My mother had been battling serious health issues for the past three months. During that time, she prepared her own obituary and funeral program and personally asked me to deliver her eulogy. After the passing of my beloved mother, Geneva Sherman Sizemore, I had the honor of sharing her life story and legacy at her funeral on June 27, 2026—just one week before what would have been her 75th birthday. What began as a tribute to one extraordinary woman became a powerful motivational and inspirational message that moved everyone in attendance and inspired countless people to reflect on their own lives, faith, purpose, and legacy.Rather than simply mourning her passing, I chose to celebrate her life defined by faith, perseverance, courage, resilience, sacrifice, servant leadership, motherhood, and unwavering trust in God.Raised as a single mother of two, my mother refused to allow hardship, rejection, financial struggles, anxiety, or disappointment to define her future. She worked multiple jobs, graduated from college with honors, became a gifted church musician, mentored countless single mothers, purchased her first home through unwavering faith after being denied by her own bank, and later reunited with the love of her life in a beautiful story of redemption and restoration.Throughout this emotional and deeply motivational speech, I share timeless life lessons my mother taught me, including:Know your worth and never allow anyone to devalue you.Keep your faith during life's darkest moments.Don't allow rejection to define your future.Choose courage over fear.Build your legacy through service to others.Never stop believing God has a greater plan.Raise your children with love, communication, and integrity.Trust God even when you cannot see the outcome.Keep moving forward through hardship.Live a life that leaves an eternal impact.This is more than a eulogy, this episode is an inspiring motivational and inspirational story about overcoming adversity, choosing faith over fear, discovering purpose through pain, and building a legacy that lives far beyond this life. A tribute not only to one remarkable mother—but to every parent, caregiver, mentor, and person striving to leave the world better than they found it.Whether you're grieving the loss of a loved one, raising children, rebuilding after hardship, or searching for hope, I would like to remind you that a life lived with faith, love, and purpose is never forgotten and that t true success isn't measured by what you own—it's measured by the lives you touch.My mother's life demonstrates that you don't need fame, wealth, or status to leave an extraordinary legacy. Through faith, perseverance, sacrifice, service, and unconditional love, she impacted generations and continues to inspire people even after her passing.What You Will Gain:Powerful motivational and inspirational life lessons about overcoming hardship, trusting God during difficult seasons, knowing your worth, and building a meaningful legacy through faith and perseverance.Self-improvement and educational principles that strengthen resilience, family relationships, leadership, communication, personal growth, and the courage to keep moving forward despite life's challenges.Faith and motivation insights that encourage listeners to trust God's timing, live with purpose, inspire future generations, and understand that a life of service leaves an eternal impact.Press play now to experience my heartfelt motivational and inspirational tribute and discover timeless lessons about faith, resilience, purpose, and the kind of legacy every person has the opportunity to leave behind.Send us Fan MailSupport the showFor daily motivation and inspiration, subscribe and follow Real Talk With Reginald D on social media:Instagram: realtalkwithreginaldd   TikTok: @realtalkregd  Youtube: @realtalkwithreginald  Website:  https://www.realtalkwithreginaldd.com Real Talk With Reginald D  -  MerchandiseReal Talk With Reginald D is a faith-based globally ranked inspirational and motivational podcast designed to motivate, empower & transform lives through powerful motivational speeches, authentic conversations, and real-life inspirational stories.

Today's episode was recorded in partnership with flaconi, Germany's leading online destination for beauty and fragrance. And it's one of those conversations that reminded me why I love doing this podcast so much.We're sitting down with Alicia Lindner, who runs a third-generation family business in the beauty industry called Annemarie Börlind. But this conversation is about so much more than a brand story. We talk about growing up surrounded by the scent of plant oils and flowers drifting out of a laboratory in the Black Forest and what it means to carry a legacy without turning it into something rigid.We also talk about sibling leadership, building and growing the brand independently, the spirit of the Schwarzwald, and the beauty industry as it looks today. But also about very human things. Like why skipping lunch is never a good idea and why the forest can be the best mentor when everything feels a bit too loud.This episode is thoughtful and honest. Alicia became an immediate star of the show.

Do not the pagans do the same? So be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect.” Bishop Sheen quote of the day
