Podcast appearances and mentions of James P Owen

“I'm going to set a 10-year goal … to go from 70-years old to 80-years young.” Welcome everyone to episode 30 of the It Matters To Me Podcast, a show that celebrates the random through 1-on-1 conversations with people and the passions they pursue. Today my guest is Jim Owen, best-selling author, documentary filmmaker, and global speaker. Determined to get fit in his 70s, this 80-year-old former Wall Street executive wrote a book titled, Just Move! that focuses on the foundations of fitness and health beyond athletic performance or pure vanity. In hopes of inspiring others to realize the benefits of exercise, he began recording this journey through a recent documentary film, The Art of Aging Well. Before all this, however, Jim burst onto the national literary scene with the best-selling books, Cowboy Ethics, Cowboy Values, and The Try. That collection of truly must-reads highlights the character qualities that enable ordinary people to do extraordinary things and has unsurprisingly remained quite relevant in today's world of social discord, corporate scandals, and downright political jackassery. Talking with Jim couldn't have been more nourishing and substantial on a personal level because it really just felt like I was getting life advice from a seasoned expert. If you're a sucker for a southern drawl like I am, you're really going to enjoy this episode and I hope it's enough to get you to check out some of his books and the documentary.

Part of the Code of the West is to “Ride For The Brand”.  This means to be loyal to those that take you on and hire you.  It's not a blind loyalty, but one that is earned.   In his book Cowboy Ethics: What It Takes To Win At Life, James P. Owen writes: “The cowboy's greatest devotion was to his calling and his way of life.  His loyalties naturally centered upon those who valued his traditions and counted upon him to uphold them.  In short, the cowboy gave allegiance and respect where they were deserved and returned.”   What does it mean to ride for the brand in a corporate setting?  When is it genuine and when is it not?   On this week's episode of the 33 Tangents podcast, Jim and Jason take a look at what it really means to “Ride For The Brand”, how it is something that can't be faked, and how it can show a person's true intentions.   WHERE TO LISTEN The 33 Tangents video simulcast is now available on YouTube Subscribe on Apple Podcasts Subscribe on Google Podcasts Listen on TuneIn Listen on Amazon Music   WHERE TO FIND US Website: www.33sticks.com Email: Podcast@33sticks.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/33Sticks Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/33sticks/

This step-by-step guide, written by  best-selling author and former Wall Street titan James P. Owen, provides all the information—and inspiration—you need to feel better, reduce aches and pains, and push back against aging with a personalized fitness program that's right for you. Whatever your fitness goals or preferences, this book is designed to help you pursue the health program that works for you. An inspirational speaker, author, and former Wall Street rainmaker, Jim Owen was 70 when he decided he had to get fit. Years of a chair-bound lifestyle were taking their toll. Realizing that the old bodybuilding approach was no way to tackle the stiffness, weakness, and aches and pains that come with age, he set off on a journey of discovery and transformation. With help from the experts, he developed a common-sense, step-by-step program that can be tailored to any level of physical ability. Along the way he learned why cardio machines aren't enough, what it takes to be "functionally fit" for daily life, and how to stay motivated. Today, Owen is in better shape than he was at 25, and he is a passionate evangelist for fitness as a way of life. He has proved that you don't have to be powerless in the face of advancing years: if you make a commitment to "just move," you can take charge of the aging process and make your coming years the best they can be.The book is divided into two sections, with the first providing fascinating information and the second showing step-by-step details of how to put the best fitness principles into practice.

Fitness after fifty was never something that occurred to veteran financier James P. Owen, during his hectic life in corporate America. But when he turned seventy, the former Wall Street rainmaker and author of the best-selling book, Cowboy Ethics, had an epiphany. He discovered he could move. Jim founded the Center for Cowboy Ethics and Leadership to spread the message that “we can all be heroes in our own lives,” but it was not until relatively late in life that he says he discovered his true purpose. Over the past seven years he has transformed his life, applying his much-lauded ‘rules of the west’ to a disciplined fitness regime. The result is a body and lifestyle that defies his age and a new book, Just Move: A New Approach to Fitness After 50, in which Jim shares his wisdom. In this LLAMA podcast interview he explains how “fighting off old age” involves shadowboxing, weightlifting, walking and a focus on "functional fitness."
