Do you find yourself constantly worrying about what other people think?  Do you find that this affects your work, your life, and your overall happiness?  If so, then let me tell you something: you're not alone! This week on the Kathryn For Real podcast Jon and I are sitting down with our good friend Dr. Mike Gervais.  You may have heard of the terms “YOLO” and “FOMO,” but the one you need to be the most familiar with is what Mike terms “FOPO,” and that's the fear of other people's opinions. Through the past decade, Mike has worked with some of the best in their industries such as top 100 CEO's, artists, musicians, Olympians, and even some of the most famous athletes you watch on tv. Mike's mission is to teach individuals how to overcome this fear of other people's opinions by teaching them the psychological, sociological, and biological factors that come into play and how to redirect our attention from others outside of us and instead focus on the self. Dr. Mike's newest book, “The First Rule Of Mastery: Stop Worrying About What People Think,” is a best seller that will teach you how to cast aside the opinions of others and start living the life of a high performer. Enjoy this episode and let us know what you think!

For Kathryn's 100th episode of Kathryn For Real, she recorded her family having a family meeting.  This idea came about as she is often asked for great tips on raising kids and ways to keep a family together in a world that always seems to be pulling us apart. Without a doubt, the best thing she ever did to develop a strong family was her weekly family meeting. Each Sunday, they would meet as a family and Jon would read a devotional, an article or share an inspirational video. Next, they would discuss their family mission statement and how they were living it. Remind each other of their “One Word” for the year and talk about how that was going. Then, each family member would share a challenge they were dealing with, while the other family members would offer solutions. They learned things that the kids were dealing with that they would have never known without having these meetings. They helped them create a bond that still lasts to this day. Some might say “We eat dinner together as a family. Isn't that good enough?” … Of course, it's great to eat together, but Kathryn found with a busy family whose kids play sports or have a lot of activities, it's not always easy to eat together. Scheduling a weekly family meeting and making it a priority ensures you will connect more with each other. Now, let's face it, busyness and stress can cause a family to run in circles to the point you don't invest in what matters most … your relationships. If you miss a week, you must keep at it. Keep scheduling it. Keep fighting for it. Family meetings help you create a strong and calm foundation in the midst of chaos. From The Gordon Family to yours, we hope this is your best year yet!

About 9 months ago, Kathryn was struggling with a lot of negative thoughts.  This was new for her. She was always the positive one. The person that saw the glass as half full. But she had fallen into this negative loop of self loathing and doom.  “I have no energy. Im sore. I'm getting old. I'll never lose this weight, It's too late to.." (fill in the blank here because it seemed she thought it was too late to change anything!) She would share her self-loathing and angst with Jon.  Now for a little back story, Jon used to be the negative one.  She was the one that would speak life into him, but through his own practices and writing over the years he changed his mindset and was about to complete his next book The One Truth, a book to help elevate your mind and heal your soul.  She didn't think it's a coincidence that she somehow had become like the very person this book was written to help. So, he was fresh from doing a lot of research on the subject. He said, “Kathryn you're tuned into the wrong channel. The negative channel.”  He was right!!  He gave the analogy of “it's like when you get in your car and the radio comes on. It's set on a channel. You have to change that channel to get different music. So you have to change your own channel. You have to TUNE into the positive.” At that same time, Kathryn started working with a health and wellness company and had a whole bloodwork up done. When the results came back there were a few things that needed some attention. But nothing serious or irreversible. Her cholesterol and blood sugar was creeping up. But then her nutritionist said “Now this is unique and something that isn't common.” Kathryn held her breath preparing for the bad news. “Based on your DNA you are in the ULTRA class. You have the genes for ultra performance in endurance sports. You have a substantial genetic advantage that's seen in Olympic Athletes.”  Ha! What? That's fantastic news! All the sudden she pulled her shoulders back and sat up taller. "Well, what do you know, I have the genes of an Olympic Athlete!", Kathrny said.  You see, while raising her athletic kids she would always say, "You know if I had parents like me (that were so involved in the kids' sports), I would have been an Olympic Athlete. Kathryn would go on to say that her kids got HER athletic genes, I mean both of them have her body type, not Jon's after all. At which point, Jon would laugh and say, Honey I'm the D-1 athlete. You didn't even play sports in school. But there it was! There is no denying Kathryn's Olympic genes!  This news changed everything for her.  She felt stronger. She had more energy. She started working out consistently, she ate better. She even started dropping weight. She felt hopeful again.  What changed? Her thinking. It went from “I am old” to “I AM an Olympic Athlete”. That's it. She changed her mindset! If you want to hear the full story, join Kathryn and Jon on this week's episode of the Kathryn For Real podcast!

She had a bilateral mastectomy and reconstruction with Mentor silicone breast implants which caused an array of debilitating health issues. She had the implants removed after just four months and all of my symptoms completely resolved.

Her GPAC team has also partnered with the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) to develop a patient decision checklist that was created collaboratively with plastic surgeons, patient advocates and the ASPS Government Relations team.  She is passionate about raising awareness and protecting patients.

"I will be strong and courageous. I will not be terrified; I will not be discouraged. For you, my Lord, are with me wherever I go." These are the words that soon became the family prayer for Ivelisse Page, a stage IV Colon Cancer survivor. In this episode of the Kathryn For Real podcast, host Kathryn Gordon is joined by Ivelisse Page, a loving wife and mother of four, where they discuss Ivelisse's journey - before, during and after her battle with Colon Cancer - using unconventional and alternative medicine.  After Ivelisse and her husband, Jimmy, consulted a variety of doctors and spent much time in Prayer - a conclusion was made that conventional Chemotherapy was not going to offer the best results or quality of life. Ivelisse was given the green light to start a holistic and alternative approach which included daily injections of Mistletoe and Thymus.  Ivelisse has beaten the 8% survival rate and has been completely Cancer Free since December 2008, without ever going through Chemotherapy. Ivelisse's positive outlook and perseverance has inspired me, along with hundreds of thousands of individuals.  This amazing story needs to be heard, as it could save lives.

Believe Big helps Cancer patients and their families by bridging the gap between conventional and complementary medicine to heal all aspects of life.

On this episode of the Kathryn For Real podcast, Kathryn Gordon is joined by Austin and Fantasia McGuffie who are on a lifelong mission to build generational health in their family and inspiring others across the world to do the same!  Austin is also known as the Metabolism Mentor and enjoys making metabolism easy to digest for the average person!  Fantasia is a woman's health advocate and loves sharing her transparent journey of becoming!  They are both very hands on with their own 4 children's nutrition, but also take a unique-hands off approach as well. They believe that if they give their kids adequate tools and education, they can make wise decisions for themselves. Or not… and will ultimately learn from their failure and hopefully course correct! They've coined this philosophy, Self Directed Nutrition and have the pleasure of teaching it along with exercise together at The Forest School in Fayetteville, Ga.  When they're not teaching the kids at the school or caring for their own, they're hard at work on their newest baby, Noiresh (a play on the words nourish and noir). It is a health focused production company created to amplify black voices in health and works with other creators and brands to fulfill that mission.
