The days listening to his transistor radio as a child led Kevin on his journey to be a place of certainty for others, and helping them find their north star. The No Schedule Man is here!!

Breathe into the moment. Whatever it brings. It's easier said than done sometimes, isn't it? Dorman Baltazar is no stranger to challenging times, and learning how to breathe into the moment. In fact, the word "Breathe" has become synonymous with who he is, what he does and even what his businesses have been named. At this time of this podcast discussion, Dorman is a Wholistic Lifestyle Coach who also practices and teaches yoga and meditation. But he wasn't always that way. In this fascinating and heartfelt conversation, Dorman openly shares about his personal and professional journey, with all its twists and turns, including a stint in prison that ended up teaching him the potential power of practicing yoga, mediation and more deeply connecting with the breath. After closing the doors to what was "Breathe Cycle and Yoga Studios" in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan (due in large part to the complications and economic strain caused by the COVID-19 pandemic) Dorman came into this conversation having just launched his own online platform, "WeBreathe.ca" (http://www.webreathe.ca)  Dorman also has published a book of poetry called, "The Journey Within." This podcast conversation will serve as a rich context to either of those two things, as Dorman shares his journey, straight from his heart. Among other things, he openly discussed: ~ What it was like to grow up in Belize, move to Southern California and how he eventually ended up in Western Canada. ~ What initially sparked his interested in racing road bikes and mountain bikes, and how that led to his interest in exploration of yoga and mediation ~ What happened that fundamentally changed his life at 36 years old, and how he managed his way through it without losing heart. ~ How he continues to deepen his awareness, meet new challenges and what he's learned about the power of being able to breathe into the moment. ------------------------------------------- This episode of “Journeys with the No Schedule Man” is presented by: ~ Diamond & Gold Treasures - http://www.diamondzgold.com ~ Provincial Glass & Mirror - https://www.provincialglass.com/ ~ Mulligan Realty Group - http://www.mulliganrealtygroup.com ~ momondays London - http://www.momondays.com/london ~ Trickett Financial - https://www.trickettfinancial.com/

Cornell Thomas is a speaker, author, coach and creator of the “Positivity Summit,” designed to help unite human beings, regardless of race, religion, political preference, or socioeconomic status. Cornell’s goal has always been to focus on the good in mankind, and not the bad.  When the coronavirus first struck one of the first questions Cornell was asked was what he will do about the Summit. His answer: pivot. Instead of holding it in one city, in one country, and in front of a limited audience, he could now make it a global event that everyone from all over the world could see simultaneously. And with that, his Global Online Positive Summit has been born, and is set to take place on May 28 - 30, 2020.  We discussed all of this in this episode. Cornell has gathered speakers from all over the world sharing their unique stories, and powerful messages, all in an effort to uplift others and to raise money for a firefighter’s family in his hometown of Passaic, New Jersey. He passed from Covid-19, and is survived by his wife and two children. Come join us for three days of inspiration, wisdom, and hope.

Ryan Mulligan is the owner and founder of Mulligan Realty Group, but he’ll be the first to tell you: it’s not about him. A huge part of Ryan’s success has been surrounding himself with great people. He’s been able to do that and has been a part of over 600 real estate sales in just 6 years. Ryan is a great listener with a compassionate heart who genuinely cares about the people he serves. He also has a competitive fire burning inside of him that keeps him growing and learning. We talked about that and much more in this conversation. Among other things, we discussed: ~ Why he originally didn’t want his name to be a part of the name of the business. ~ His original dream, and how it was fueled by a love of sports. ~ Why he was drawn toward real estate as opposed to trying to find the “Next million-dollar idea” ~ How scary and “nerve-wracking” it was for him to get started in business, to the point where he was telling himself, “I can’t do this.” ~ What is a typical day in the life of a real estate agent these days? Is there even such a thing in these challenging times related to COVID-19? ~ How are he and his team adjusting to the “new normal?” ~ What kinds of questions do his clients have in these uncertain times?

What is it that keeps some people going when adversity strikes? Shiva Duddi has an inspiring story to share that includes acclimating to another country, overcoming a cancer diagnosis and completely re-engineering his life when he felt physically, mentally and spiritually out of balance. Shiva, a senior technology leader with years of experience helping some of the leading financial institutions in Canada, is also an entertaining and engaging speaker. And one of the stories he shares is of the first time he did a CN Tower climb (in Toronto, Ontario, Canada) to benefit the United Way, and how that experience led to a near-total life transformation in the years that followed. Among other things, we discussed: ~ What brought him from India to Canada and what that transition was like. ~ Why he feels such a strong connection to the CN Tower. ~ What inspired him to do his first CN Tower climb. ~ What (and who) it was that inspired him to get back up and keep going when he felt he couldn’t possibly go on. ~ What he covered up by putting on a hoodie even after successfully completing his first climb. ~ Why he went back the next year even after promising himself that he would “never do it again.” ~ How he used Inner Engineering to transform his life. ~ What he did after receiving a cancer diagnosis in 2019 and how he managed to complete another CN Tower climb despite the challenge.

Mark Regan (aka The “Coach of Champions”) is a certified nutrition specialist and certified strength and conditioning specialist with over 25 years in the fitness and nutrition profession. Over the past 5 years alone, Mark has helped over 500 men, women and children learn how to take back their health. Combined, they have lost over 13,000 lbs and 14,000 inches of fat during his program instruction.  Better yet, they learned all of the tools to make this lifestyle a permanent part of their happy life. This conversation with Mark came at a time when many people are struggling with their health (mentally, emotionally and, in some cases, physically) due to the extended lockdown made necessary by COVID-19 and the uncertain road that awaits. Kevin and Mark explored that along with parts of each other’s health-related ups and downs, what they’ve learned and how they've changed. They also shared some ideas of some simple things anyone can do to begin empowering themselves to start building some positive momentum going forward, one little step at a time. Among other things, they discussed: ~ How it’s really about mindset. ~ Why the idea of “embracing the grind” can be dangerous. ~ What happened when he was 5 years old that set the foundation for the passion he has for fitness and lifestyle. ~ Why he kept having to tell himself, “Never again,” and how he finally made that proclamation come true. ~ Focusing on opportunity over challenges. ~ It’s about progress over perfection. ~ How he reacts to the word “diet.” ~ What it means to “teach hormones.” ~ What is the root cause of pretty much any chronic affliction in the body, and what to do about it.

Ever thought about the psychology of colour, what the different colours mean, how we can use them to learn more about ourselves and apply them effectively both at home and at work? If so, you'll love this conversation about living life colourfully with Angela Dacey. As Angela has said: "It’s time for YOU to take care of YOU and heal YOUR negative thoughts and feelings. Stop feeling hopeless, heavy-hearted, mentally unclear, emotionally drained and spiritually unconnected." We talked about a lot of that (with me as the guinea pig) and much more. Among other things, we discussed: ~ How thoughts and feelings affect our health ~ How “it’s a lot of work, to work on yourself.” ~ The positives and negatives associated with each of the main colours (e.g., Red positive = Passion | Red negative = fear) ~ Discussion on several real-life scenarios from both Kevin’s life and Angela’s life, how colour has played into it, what they’ve learned about themselves and role colour can play in moving forward. ~ They also created a recipe for the chronically under-achieving Toronto Maple Leafs! Truly, this was a fun and fascinating discussion! We hope you enjoy it.

Now us much as ever, it sure seems like a fine time for global shift in consciousness. But who's going to lead it? Luckily, I know a guy. Brendon Culliton is the founder and leader of Paradigm Shift Central, a portal for consciousness shifting media and a global team of shifters. In this episode, Brendon joined me to speak at length about both his journey of creating and leading his own paradigm-shifting movement and about his journey into consciousness in general At ParadigmShiftCentral.com, you’ll find featured inspirational content leaders actively helping accelerate the shift in global consciousness through creativity and compassion. Brendon leads by example through a variety of different videos, including meditations, group discussions and collaboration and video blog-type observations, among other things.  In addition to his proficiency and video production and online community building, Brendon is just as likely to be found on the streets of London, Ontario offering "free hugs" and/or talking to passersby to encourage their thoughts on a particular subject, many of which will be shared to the collective via video. The result of his effort is seeing others around the world feeling inspired and encouraged by his actions. Many of them put their own ideas and efforts into play as well, and so the global shift in consciousness moves just a little bit more and a little bit more. Among many other things, we discussed: ~ The process of creating his film, "Journey to Lucidity." ~ What led to him becoming so passionate about doing the kind of work he does. ~ When he first became aware that there was even a "paradigm" that needed "shifting," and how he knew he was meant to be involved. ~ His concept of "Radical non-worriness." ~ The human tendency to gravitate toward what we think needs to happen vs what needs to happen.

This is really a love story. Love of what we do, how we do it ... and of each other. Zen’za Pizzeria in London, Ontario, Canada is one of those all-too-rare, very special kinds of places that warm your spirit the moment you pass through the doors. It’s more than the food, though that’s part of it. It’s more than the design of the place, though that’s part of it too. It’s a lot about the people who created it, the circumstances that led to its creation and, in face, the coming together of those two people in the first place. We talked about all of that and more with Wayne DeGroot and Jocelyn Morwood-DeGroot in Episode 101 of “Journeys with the No Schedule Man.” Among other things, we discussed: How the two of them connected and what told them each that the connection was to be trusted and explored. Why they decided to go into business together (and why it was the pizza business). How they’ve helped each other grow, individually and as a team. Some of the challenges they’ve met in the journey of bringing Zen’za Pizzeria to life. What the reality of life is like when you run your own restaurant. How and why Zen’za is such a terrific example of authentic, magnetic marketing. Big visions vs. moment-to-moment details and how they can both compliment and (at times) distract from each other.

If you own or operate your own business, you’ll appreciate and relate to this conversation. Especially if you are in the event management business.  Like so many of the rest of us, John Reiser’s path into the business that he now operates was anything but linear. The opportunity found him just as much as he found it. The story of how it has all evolved is interesting and valuable to hear, and that’s what we cover in this episode. John is the President of Better Events Management Group. Their signature event is the Better Business Expo which, at the time of this discussion, operates in multiple cities throughout Ontario, Canada (such as Mississauga, Markham, Ajax, Niagara, Ottawa and here in London) . In this conversation, John shares about the unique challenges and opportunities of operating in different cities, and about the trade show industry in general. Among other things we discussed: ~ What goes into responding to an unexpected crisis like we are currently facing with the Coronavirus and how that impacts the business and decisions going forward.  ~ What he and his team refer to as to “The Hot Zone” and how the last minute adjustments that a lot of people never see can make or break the execution of an event. ~ What it means to John to “Cowboy Up” and how he and his team have had to do that the number of times. ~ Why he seeks partnership in each community where they hold the Expo and what the general response has been when he and his group reach out. ~ The overwhelming list of all the things he discovered one needs when starting a business, and how he began chipping away at it.

How well do you feel you know who you really are … and are not? A strong sense of self awareness is always a good idea, but it’s not just a character trait of the emotionally mature. It’s an essential component of running a successful business. Awareness, values, curiosity and consciousness are all themes that ran through what Natalie White, owner of Cafezia Coffee, shared in this conversation. Among other things, we discussed: ~ Why does Natalie do what she does? ~ How did she know what was the "right" fit for her? ~ How did she get started? ~ What are the hardest parts of growing a business? ~ How has she overcome the challenges? ~ How often does "Imposter Syndrome" creep up? ~ What are some of the most fulfilling parts of what she does? ~ What exactly is Cafezia, why is it different from other coffee and what makes her so passionate about it?

Rakesh Mishra is "possibility" personified. His life and many adventures seem as if they might have been lifted straight out of a storybook. Except he’s real. After growing up in a poor Indian village with no electricity, automobiles or televisions, Rakesh went on to find himself in another part of the world entirely (Canada), retired financially at the age of 45.  (To hear Rakesh tell his story, listen to his previous appearance on this podcast, in Episode 68) Every dream he's set out for himself, he's made real. And now he lives and works with a passion to help others do the same for themselves. In this conversation Kevin talked to Rakesh about what it takes to live your dreams and what holds so many people back.  Among other things, they discussed: ~Two questions Rakesh suggests everyone ask themselves.  ~ The differences between a life of survival, success and significance.  ~ What Rakesh and Tom Cruise have in common.  ~ How to know if you are "playing too small." ~ Why Rakesh feels everybody these days is forced to be an entrepreneur, even if they are an employee.  ~ Three things widely available that can help anyone with anything. ~ Rakesh's "secret" for success.  ~ How expectation and attachment hold people back.  To learn more about Rakesh, visit http://www.coachrakesh.com For all previous episodes of the podcast, visit http://www.NoScheduleManPodcast.com. “Journeys with the No Schedule Man” is presented by:   Connect1 Consulting - https://connect1consulting.com Diamond & Gold Treasures - http://www.diamondzgold.com Provincial Glass & Mirror - https://www.provincialglass.com/ Susan Eliuk at Travel Agents In Action - http://www.foreverpreciousmemories.ca Trickett Financial - https://www.trickettfinancial.com/ momondays London - http://www.momondays.com/london

As you might imagine, having the opportunity to speak at length with Bob was a lot of fun for Kevin, and it shows in this very lively episode.   Among other things, Kevin & Bob discussed: ~ How and why the last 365 days have been the best year of Bob’s life.  ~ What he learned, has applied, and now teaches that helped him to stop feeling like a "mosquito on cocaine."  ~ The difference, for him, between feeling authentic and having been somewhat inauthentic, what each of those look like, and what flipped the switch for him. ~ What got him involved in speaking at schools, why he is so passionate about it and how the students are responding. ~ One of the memory techniques he shares in his talks, and why it works so well ~ How he continues to find rewarding relationships and enriching opportunities by taking immediate action when doors open. ~ How he "accidentally" became an expert in smartphone and tech addiction, why he's so passionate about it and how it has affected him personally. ~ What “the pause” is and why it’s so beneficial to our overall well-being. ~ What so many of us do poorly, and lose any real sense of connection with others because of it.

Adam Malamis had a burning question inside of him he needed to answer.   He wanted to know if he could be the kind of person one might find "running into the action when other people were running away" ... or not?   I believe he has his answer.   In the summer of 2019, Adam found himself - by choice - behind the lens of a camera, in full riot gear, in the middle of the conflict and protests in Hong Kong.   In this conversation, Adam outlines why it was so important for him to go, what he's taken from the experience and how is travels have shaped his perspective. of life at home.   Among other things, we discussed:   ~ "Appreciating stillness" and his love of photography.   ~ What it was like, back-packing across Europe by himself in his early 20's, and how he navigated his way through places where he didn't know he language.   ~ How people ask you if you wish to eat in Mongolia.   ~ How he prepared and purchased riot gear for his trip to Hong Kong.   ~ What the Hong Kong experience was really like.   ~ His plans for an exhibit called "Revolution Of Our Times"   ~ His involvement in "The Fight To End Homelessness" here in London, Ontario, Canada and what being involved in the project has shown him about people.   “Journeys with the No Schedule Man” is presented by: Connect1 Consulting Diamond & Gold Treasures Provincial Glass & Mirror Trickett Financial Susan Eliuk of Travel Agents in Action momondays London

Suppose you've got a great idea. Or you're simply looking to do things better. And you're one of the few who are actually set to *act* upon the notion and see if you can get yourself and your team somewhere new. Awesome. But how do you give yourself the best chance to succeed? And what do you do when the going when the going gets rough, or find yourself looping back upon ground you've already tread? That's where a guy like Joseph Heraldo comes in. Joseph is a Change Management Consultant and CEO of MeasuredLive.com. When asked, he says simply, "My job is to help people's dreams come true."  He does that by helping leaders eliminate their barriers and committing to their vision, enabling their teams to share and work together toward their big ideas. The magical thing about Joseph is that what he shares about how to get from concept to completion is not the sort of thing we may be used to hearing or expecting to be told. Not only is his insight and wisdom effective, it's refreshing. Among other things we discussed: ~ Challenging the old ideas of always be  pushing, grinding and sacrificing your well-being . If you're pursuing a dream, why live it like a nightmare? ~ How strategy is a process and only works when people execute.  ~ How vital Integrity is to the equation and how it is a missing component in so much business language today. ~ The unstoppable power of listening. ~ Viewing people as people instead of statistics. ~ The staggering percentage of effort that is tied up in administration, and what can be done about it. “Journeys with the No Schedule Man” is presented by: Connect1 Consulting Diamond & Gold Treasures Provincial Glass & Mirror Trickett Financial Susan Eliuk of Travel Agents in Action momondays London

Imagine ... ocean. Everywhere you look: ocean. You're at sea. By yourself. And you're going to stay that way until you've gone all the way around the world. Alone. What would that be like? How would it feel? Here's our chance to find out, chatting with Gaurav Shinde, who is already in preparation to take leave from his home and work here in London, Ontario, Canada, to sail solo around the world in a race in 2022. Among other things we discussed… ~ What introduced him into sailing in the first place. ~ How exclusive a group it is, the people who have done what he is looking to do.  ~ The lively tale of his initial 800-mile adventure across the Arabian Sea at just 24 years of age, and how that hooked him on sailing.  ~ What appeals to him about the thought of 9 months at sea, all by himself. ~ The remarkable story of the very special boat that will take him around the world in 2022, and his journey to finding it.  ~ The route that he will be taking for the race in 2022 and how he will provision for the journey.  ~ An overview of the work that needs to be done between now and September of 2022, when he leaves France to begin the race.  “Journeys with the No Schedule Man” is presented by: Connect1 Consulting Diamond & Gold Treasures Provincial Glass & Mirror Trickett Financial Susan Eliuk of Travel Agents in Action momondays London

Do you have children? Do those children have access to the internet? If so, please watch or listen to this conversation with Charlene Doak-Gebauer. As you'll see and hear, it left Kevin at a loss for words. Several times. An international speaker, Charlene is the creator of the charitable organization, "Internet Sense First," the author of two books ("Digital Sexual Victims: True Cases" and "The Internet: Are Children in Charge?") and the drivng force behind The International Summit To End Child Exploitation (November 9, 2019 at the Hellenic Centre in London, Ontario, Canada). I found some of what Charlene shared very difficult to hear. In consideration of that, I cannot image actually LIVING through what is happening to many children, right under our noses. We better hear about it and discuss it so that we can keep more people from living through it. Among other things, we discussed: - "Grooming," and how online sexual predators often communicate and what they do to draw out information from potential victims. - Signs to look for from online gaming sexual predators. - Why something that could well be in your child's phone - that they might think is funny - could actually be a criminal offence. - An overview of the three steps to Charlene's model for digital supervision: a) Awareness b) Method (how and what to check) c) Hope This is an important story that may well save lives and save families. If you have friends and family with children, please share this with them. “Journeys with the No Schedule Man” is presented by: Connect1 Consulting  Diamond & Gold Treasures  Provincial Glass & Mirror/ Susan Eliuk at Travel Agents In Action  Trickett Financial momondays London  To learn more and connect with Kevin, visit http://www.NoScheduleMan.com

What, exactly, is an "Awesomepreneur?" How does the idea uniquely contribute to people in business growing and thriving at work and at home? Where did the idea come from ? Where it is going? We discussed that and much more with Kyle Blythe, founder & CEO of Awesomepreneurs Inc. in Ep. 88 of "Journeys with the No Schedule Man." Among other things, we chatted about: - What Awesomepreneurs is and how it was born - His pivotal choice to "sink or swim." - The challenges that immediately stood in his way and what he's done to meet and overcome them. - How he feels "it's not about me" and some examples of the kinds of people that have become involved and why they have. - The power of having a lot of regrets. - The tricky balance between service and self-care. “Journeys with the No Schedule Man” is presented by: Connect1 Consulting Diamond & Gold Treasures Provincial Glass & Mirror Trickett Financial Susan Eliuk of Travel Agents in Action momondays London

Brett Lucier, the owner of Provincial Glass and Mirror, is a terrific example of the power of resourcefulness, hard work, patience and perseverance. Brett began his career with Provincial Glass in an entry-level position. And he'll be the first to tell you: he broke a lot of glass at the start. But he just kept working his way up until, one day, he became the owner of the company and one of London, Ontario's true community leaders. How did he do it and what can we learn from it? That's the story we shared in this episode. Among the things we discussed ... - Getting into your chosen field, finding out it's not what you thought, dealing with that disappointment and deciding what to do next. - Transferable skills - your role may change and your setting may change but you will always take your interests and values along with you and it's amazing how they can be applied (and even reignited) in new ways and new environments. - Why surrounding yourself with - and truly making the effort to get to know - good people is so important for a successful company culture. - How to deal with new challenges as you continue to develop and grow. - The power of resourcefulness and work ethic mixed with patience and perseverance. It was an 18-year journey from the time he first started at the company to becoming sole owner. And as you'll hear him say, he feels like the story is just beginning ...

Ever had a "lightning bolt" moment and followed the inspiration? Feel like you have multiple interests rather than doing "just one thing?" Believe in connecting and building community over comparing and competing? If so, you'll relate to what Jenna Goodhand, founder of The Hive London, shares in this lively conversation. Jenna is a dynamic, compassionate, creative person with multiple personal and professional interests, hence the title of the episode: "Doing All Of The Things." Among the things we discussed: - The "Lighting bolt" moment that precipitated The Hive coming to life. - Thinking about "relationships" and "sharing" vs always "selling." - How it's, "not about the things I'm doing, but about how I FEEL about the things I'm doing." And how sometimes, those feelings change. - How learning to let go and say goodbye is a natural part of growth - How "community" is inclusive and not competitive. - Responding to challenges, change and adversity.

Loretta is a respected business strategist, a problem solver with international experience and a dynamic leadership coach.

No clickbait, this episode changed my life. Kevin Bulmer, aka The No Schedule Man, is a mindset coach, a speaker, consultant , dad and overall inspiring human. In this episode, we talk about - What is a growth mindset how to develop one and the importance of having a growth mindset for yourself - What to do if you're surrounded by people with a fixed mindset? - How do you 'teach someone' to have a growth mindset? - How to handle harsh criticism and doubts from people that mean the most to you This episode inspired me to get off my tush and finally make my dreams of moving from Alberta to Ontario a reality. I couldn't think of a better episode to upload for my 24th birthday. You can find Kevin at "No Schedule Man" on Facebook and Instagram.

In the final of four “Special Edition” episodes to launch the podcast’s new name (“Journeys with the No Schedule Man”), Kevin reflects on the evolution of his life’s journey in the time since he began the podcast. For this four weeks, Kevin has hand-picked specific conversations that have made a major impact on his personal and professional development, noting why that’s been the case and how what he’s learned may be of some help to you, too. For this episode, Cornell Thomas joins Kevin for an all-new segment and introduction, as they both reflect back on how profound a connection they made when they collaborated on their initial episode, and why their friendship has become so strong, so quickly (to give you an idea, Kevin’s son, Jaden, calls Cornell his “uncle”). In the time since they first connected, both Kevin and Cornell have taken major strides in pursuing their life’s passion. In Cornell’s case, he’s since launched his podcast, “Population Unplugged,” and has just released another book, “Extra-Ordinary: The Distance Between Good and Great.” Cornell discusses both those projects in the new segment.   ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

With an all new introduction and wrap-up, this episode features a lot of new content and perspective, along with a reflection upon a meeting and first conversation between two people who would become fast friends and creative collaborators. Meeting Gair Maxwell changed Kevin’s life, and put his efforts to pursue a speaking career into overdrive. An award-winning international speaker and author himself, Maxwell saw something in Kevin from their first meeting. What happened next is the subject of Kevin’s opening to this episode, as he examines his own personal and professional reinvention in an effort to encourage you to consider yours.   ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

In the second of four “Special Edition” episodes to launch the podcast’s new name (“Journeys with the No Schedule Man”), Kevin reflects on the evolution of his life’s journey in the time since he began the podcast. For this four weeks, Kevin has hand-picked specific conversations that have made a major impact on his personal and professional development, noting why that’s been the case and how what he’s learned may be of some help to you, too. With an all new introduction and wrap-up, this episode features a lot of new content and perspective, along with the recounting of a conversation that was transformational for Kevin: a chat with Sara Westbrook, a speaker, writer and performer who specializes in resilience, confidence and mental well-being. It was during his conversation with Sara that Kevin was hit with a “lightning bolt” of inspiration (a “voice”) that ended up shaping much of how his life would change from that point on. What happened next is the subject of Kevin’s opening to this episode, as he examines the choices he’d made up to that point, and looked ahead to how he’d have to choose – and act – differently to get to that new place he was inspired to seek while talking with Sara. ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

Steve Zanella helps people learn to overcome anxiety, stress & fear with meditation, mindfulness and love. As he says, “he’s just sharing his story.” Right from childhood, Steve struggled with anxiety. As he grew older, it only got worse, and showed itself in new and more challenging forms like panic attacks and social withdrawal. Eventually, he began to self-medicate with alcohol and found himself in a very dark place. In this conversation, Steve openly discusses the challenges he faced for much of his life. But he also shares an open and honest account of what he did – and is doing – to reclaim his well-being and to live a life free of anxiety. He is living proof that it is possible, and it’s part of his mission to help as many people as he can by authentically sharing his experiences from this point on. Some of the key things I took from my time with Steve included: 1. Changing Your “Why” – Steve tells a moving story of how his love for his daughter “Became The Why” which precipitated his effort to truly change. In short, he wondered if he could love himself the way he loved his daughter. What a thought! Listen for that, and what happened as a result. 2. Asking “Why” – Steve talked about learning to approach everything like a toddler when it comes to understanding his own thoughts, feelings, emotions and beliefs. It’s a great way to look at it! Find out why by listening for what Steve has to say about asking “why?” 3. You Can Teach Yourself Anything – As Steve notes, the knowledge is free and readily available to anyone with access to a library, and especially to anyone with access to the internet. But you’ve got to do the work. If you’re willing to do that, you can literally teach yourself to do just about anything, including overcoming anxiety. ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

Michael Doyle is a speaker, musician, business coach and author who believes that everyone has the power to follow their dreams and live their purpose. At the time of this discussion, he is just about to release his first book called “At The Helm: Take Control and Live Fully” Some of the key things I took from my time with Michael included: 1. Confidence Comes Last – As Michael says, “If we wait until we have the confidence to do something we'll probably never do it.” He went on to say, “Once you start to build skills, that's when the confidence starts to come. Confidence comes last in almost every obstacle I've worked through.” 2. Being Open to Receive - I misunderstood this for a long time, much as I did with the idea of loving myelf; it seemed selfish to me. But that’s not it at all. Michael noted that, through the course of his personal growth and redevelopment, he discovered that being open to receive was his biggest block. 3. Underestimating what we can do in a long period of time – Michael said, “We as humans will over-estimate what we can do in a short period of time. We'll try to schedule too much and will try to do too much. But at the same point I think we grossly underestimate what we can do in a long period of time. It's about doing little things and being consistent and being intentional.” That’s a really great observation. I’m certain that he’s right and confess to falling into that trap in bits and pieces every day. ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

Doug Vincent is, among many other things, a Charter Member and Past President of the Woodstock-Oxford Rotary Club in Canada. He has traveled the world on Rotary humanitarian aid activities and is a Rotary Representative to the United Nations As a third generation graduate of his family's successful farm equipment business, he is now an International Advisor to family business corporations, with a focus on harmony and communications in family business. Doug is an honorary "Colonel" in the Philippine National Police, recognizing his role promoting global understanding, brotherhood & world peace. He has been recognized with several Leadership and Appreciation Awards for his work, including a President's Citation and the prestigious Service Above Self award, among many others. Most recently he was recognized as a distinguished Canadian with a special Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Medal. Doug is often called Rotary's "Roving Ambassador." He is a kind, caring and compassionate man and the stories he tells in this episode are absolutely priceless. Among the many key things that stood out from my time with Doug include: 1. Saying Yes To Life – Doug gives a powerful account of what led to his decision to say “yes” to more global engagements, and what caused him to make a commitment to himself of something he would do within 30 days of getting home after being unwell in another part of the world. 2. Learn To Do By Doing – As Doug described his start in his own branch of the family business, “Rather than me going into a big business when I didn’t have big business skills, this allowed me to start from grassroots small business. And then my business skills grew at the same time as the business grew.” He shares many valuable insights along these lines, a must-listen for aspiring entrepreneurs and those looking for a succession plan for their existing business 3. Understanding the Difference One Person Can Make – Doug recounts a moving story near the end of our discussion that truly gave me pause for consideration. He observed that, “I get really, really, really frustrated when people don’t see the difference they could make in a very simple way.” Each and every one of us has the opportunity to make a positive difference. And for each one of us who does, the bigger the collective difference we all make. ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

Eustan Matthews is a Business Coach, Consultant & Speaker who helps busy entrepreneurs and business owners avoid or escape what he calls “The Freedom Quandary.” At the time of our discussion, he’s taken on a project called “40 Coffees in 40 Days,” designed to meet with a different small business owner on 40 separate occasions and to solve one challenge in their business over a cup of coffee. Like anyone else, Eustan’s story is not without its challenges. Being moved from his home country of Trinidad at an early age left him with feelings and questions he’s had to carry with him since. And, like most of us, his journey has taken twists and turns and has provided opportunities for him to re-examine his path and what he can be doing to best represent his authentic self on a day-to-day basis. I think he’s on to it. Some of the key things I took away from the time with Eustan include: 1. Leaving Authentic Impressions – It occurred me, as I listened to Eustan speak about people in his life, how many impressions are being made and absorbed over the course of a day, a week or a lifetime. We make impressions on so many other people, both good and not as good, without even trying, and these impressions become part of our collective experience, in both how we identify ourselves, and in what we say about ourselves to others. 2. Invest in the person, not in the business (or the numbers) – A wise choice for any business involving human beings, in my opinion. 3. Positivity is a choice – He tells a great story about a time when he asked his wife, “Am I a negative person?” The honest answer he got presented him with a choice as to how he wanted to move forward. I believe he chose well. ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

Cornell Thomas describes himself as a father, husband, son, speaker, coach, motivator, world changer, free thinker, lion, doer, giver, and active dreamer. His mission in life is to serve others and make this world a better place. He’s doing a heckuva job so far. Originally, Cornell thought his purpose in life was to play professional basketball. And in 2003, he received a contract to play pro ball in Portugal. It was the realization of a dream he'd held since he discovered the sport at 16 years of age. And then it all fell apart. Little did he realize at the time that the setback would help him find & embrace his true purpose in life: Some of the key things I took from my time with Cornell include: 1. You Can Always Sell the Cookies - In one of my favourite stories of any of this podcast's episodes so far, Cornell tells a terrific tale of mindset , resourcefulness & hustle. 2. If You Build It, They Don’t Always Come – You have to do the work. You better know your stuff. Cornell was reminded of that in the days when he started his first basketball camp and the results brought to mind a famous quote from a certain Kevin Costner movie ... only in reverse. 3. You’ll Never Arrive - There is an irony here, because the acceptance of this fact is your gateway to freedom. Wherever you go, there you are. You'll never arrive. Embrace it. ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

Katie Kozlowski is a spiritual teacher, self realization coach and healer. Katie’s is a remarkable story about how so many of us start out so happy and free, how it easy it is to get lost, and the consequences of the unconscious cruelty we inflict on ourselves and others when we’re not in touch with who we really are. A few key things I took from the conversation with Katie include: 1. You Are Not Your Body – She talks about the difference between your soul and your body, and how her accident (which she describes) jolted her soul and her body back together. It’s a powerful observation 2. Happy Can Look Messy – Listen for how she describes herself as a kid. As we get older, we start putting all sorts of conditions on what it takes to be happy. But happy can be simple, and even messy. 3. The Irony of “Playful Transformation” (because it brings you back to the REAL you) – Listen for WHY Katie jokes that she “peaked” in Grade 3. She already knew who she was. She just needed to find her again, or “transform” back to who she already used to be (and still was). The same is true for most of us. ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

Martin Reid is the creator of “Personal Victory," a fitness consulting company developed to help people determine and reach their fitness goals. He is also an Education Specialist at Life Time Athletic. On social media, he calls himself a "Tabata & Pilates Guy!" In addition, Martin has begun to do some speaking and was featured as a contributing writer to the book “Dreaming Big Being Bold: Inspiring Stories from Trailblazers,Visionaries and Change Makers” by Paula Morand & Victoria Craig. What’s interesting is that we did not talk much about fitness, or speaking, or writing, in this discussion. Instead, this conversation was very much about relationship, reinvention and self-realization. Like me, Martin thought he had it all figured out and, at least initially, couldn't understand when things started to fall apart at home. As you'll hear, he's gone (going) through a personal transformation that is empowering observe. Some of the key things I took from my time with Martin include: 1. Embracing Brokenness – He tells the story of a broken bowl, and how the pieces that are glued back together are actually stronger than the other, “non-broken” parts of the bowl. This goes hand-in-hand with accepting impermanence – if you don’t see the glass as half full or half empty, but embrace it as already broken, you can enjoy and appreciate each moment with it more. I love the idea of putting flecks of gold in the glue, too. 2. An Evolving View of Courage – Martin gives a clear account of how his views have changed on what constitutes true nobility, strength and courage. He notes that he used to view transparency as weakness. He now knows better, and I couldn’t agree with him more. 3. Significance of the Insignificant – This is the ripple effect. And it can work both for you or against you. Little becomes big. © 2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

Dr. Carlen Costa is one of Canada’s most sought-after Sexologist & Relationship Experts. She believes everyone is capable of achieving deep and meaningful intimate relationships; sometimes we just need inspiration to grow them. Carlen is a dynamic, cheerful soul who clearly loves what she does and has been through quite the journey of self exploration and actualization to become that way. And that is, for the most part, what we discussed in this episode. Some of the key things I took from this discussion that you may wish to listen for include: Honouring & Nurturing Your Awareness - Carlen described a "heavy feeling" that she experienced at the outset of her professional journey. Rather than pushing past it, as so many of us do in the face what we feel we're "supposed" to do, she listened to it, honoured it, gave it space and looked to truly understand it. She cultivated her self-awareness to truly tune into what her body and spirit were trying to tell her. It's a great lesson for the rest of us, and one that has served her well again, many times, in the face of subsequent challenges. Embracing the “Process” – Dr. Carlen took an objective and honest macro view of her life in order to choose the next micro move. She knew it would be a process and she embraced it and then went to work. She describes this at the part where she talks about wanting to have the credibility to be taken seriously, and what she felt that would require. It's a fabulous lesson in self-awareness and emotional maturity that left me impressed and inspired. Understanding & Cultivating Intimacy - The word "intimacy," in my opinion and experience, is largely misunderstood. That's probably due to the accepted phrase of “being intimate” taken to mean "having sex." But that's not what real intimacy is, and we're missing out! As Dr. Carlen says, "Intimacy is about sharing. It's about communicating. It's about connecting. It's about bonding. It's about everything other than sex." ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

Kevin asks what's a tougher challenge: getting started with something new, or moving through the middle part where it seems to be natural to be tempted to retreat back to "safety" and wonder if you're ever going to get to your goal. ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

Jason MacKenzie, an author, speaker & coach who teaches people how to find the courage to create new and deeper relationships with people, including their kids. And if they want to use those relationships to power personal and professional growth, he shows them how to do that too. Jason is a survivor of his first wife’s battle with bipolar disorder and subsequent suicide. He’s also overcome a decade-long battle with alcohol and eventually stopped running from grief and fear, which allowed him to become the husband and father he is today. After creating a website called "The Book of Open" to share his own gratitude journals, his efforts soon evolved into one of encouraging and empowering others to share their stories through his site. As Jason went on curating and connecting the experiences of others, the project caught the attention of Hogan Hilling, who approached him about writing a book. That turned into “The Dadly Book of Open: How Cultivating Vulnerability Makes You a Stronger, Wiser & More Courageous Father.” Some of the key things to listen for include: 1. Growing Together – We discuss this at a few different points in the conversation, related not just to parents with their kids, but with their parents as well. As the generations turn and learn, we are all growing together. 2. You will know when it is time for you to know - His description of the peace and the clarity of the moment when he knew he was done drinking is a great example of how, with any large, looming issue in your life that you’re not sure how to handle, you will know when it’s time. You’ll just know. And when that time arrives, you’ll know it. 3. The power of vulnerability - Authentically sharing our true selves with others almost never pushes others away. It has the reverse effect: it almost always brings us closer together. When someone else shares and listens with authenticity, non-judgement and kindness, there is no greater way to deepen or create a connection with another human being. Jason has discovered this and you’ll clearly hear that in this discussion. 4. Perseverance - He does a terrific job of describing the process of actually creating the book and what it took. Listen to that carefully because it's an important lesson for just about anything that you do in life ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

Sometimes, life is trying to tell you, “Hey. There’s something here that needs your attention. Slow down. Rest for a while.” I have learned the hard way that life sometimes calls “time out” for good reason. If you ignore those calls, you do so at your own peril. My question with this episode is: how do you recognize when it’s time for a personal “time out,” and what do you do about it? How are you able to distinguish it from an everyday excuse born of fatigue or routine (we all have things we don’t feel like doing but we go through with it anyway). What I’m referring to here are the times when you’ve tried all your tricks and life is still clearly telling you to slow down or stop. Perhaps you’ve been working through a cold that just isn’t going away so your body ramps up the fatigue to slow you down, or you’re noticing that a few little disruptions seem to be turning into an avalanche of obstacles and your ability to cope is dwindling. However you characterize it, how do you know and what do you do about it? ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

NASCAR Fans will recognize Cole Pearn as the Crew Chief for the Furniture Row Racing Team and driver, Martin Truex Jr. Cole’s story is a terrific example of knowing yourself, trusting your gut and going with what feels right to you. I first got to know Cole when he was just a teenager racing not only at Delaware Speedway (in Ontario, Canada), but also in what used to be called the CASCAR Super Series (which later became the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series, now known as the NASCAR Pinty’s Series). He was regarded as one of the true up-and-coming talents in Canadian stock car racing at the time. Cole continued to race through the balance of his high school days and into and through his time at University. Eventually, his heart told him to pack up and move to North Carolina to somehow find his way in the door of a NASCAR team. And that’s exactly what he did, finding an entry-level spot at Richard Childress Racing and working his way up from there. Fast forward to the time of this recording, where Martin Truex Jr. was named Nascar.com’s Driver of the Year after the 2016 season with Cole receiving an honourable mention for Crew Chief of the Year. In the two seasons since Cole took over atop the Furniture Row Racing pit box, the team has won five times (once in 2015 and four times in 2016) and took second place in the closest finish in the history of the Daytona 500 in February of 2016. Cole's is a fascinating story and a great example of how important it is to really know yourself, understand what it is that is important to you and what can happen when you take action to pursue it. Some of the key points that stood out to me from my time with Cole include: 1. Go with your gut. Trust your intuition. 2. Run your own race. To do this, you’ve got to really know yourself and what’s important to you. 3. Pursuit. Action. Once you know who you are and what you want, you’ve got to go after it. Just take the next step and be fully present wherever you are. If you don't try, you'll never know. ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

Derek Botten is a voice-over artist and voice actor who brings to life a wide variety of commercials, videos, voice characterizations, audio books and much more. To each project, he brings authenticity, sincerity and a kind and compassionate spirit. A well-known radio broadcasting talent in Southwestern Ontario, Canada, Derek’s career also includes a 10-year stretch as creator and producer of the “World of Motorcycles Expo” trade show and a variety of other pursuits such as motorcycle trainer and as an announcer at various motorsports events, among other things. These days, Derek most enjoys his voice work mixed with time cultivating his incredible creative and mechanical artistry by crafting a wide variety of furnishings and home accessories that he and his wife collectively refer to as “Lisa’s Pieces” (some of those items are available for sale online here). I’ve never seen him happier. Derek is an absolute gem of a human being. I treasure his friendship, encouragement, wisdom and kindness well beyond what I feel I could accurately describe. It’s my great wish that everyone should have at least one friend like Derek, and so perhaps that’s why I feel compelled to share his spirit with you. It’s bothered me somewhat that the very first episode of this podcast (which features Derek) remains the only one where I have deliberately chosen the subject matter ahead of time and then steered the conversation toward that. My only regret about it is that I don't feel that episode offers anywhere near the full scope of Derek's vast experience, kind heart, giving nature and deep emotional intelligence. I've often wished I could bottle some of the wisdom that Derek has shared with me over the years and pass it along so that it might be of benefit to others. And so with that in mind, it was important to me to celebrate the first anniversary of the No Schedule Man Podcast by asking Derek to return and to have a discussion more about life and the journey and finding contentment and letting go. And that's exactly what happened. Having said that, I admit I'm guilty of manipulating this conversation a little bit too. While we started off talking about some of the work that Derek is currently doing is a voice artist, what I really wanted to chip away at and discover was the “Why” behind one of my closest friends being as content as I've ever seen him. What are the factors that went into finding and cultivating that place? What are some of the challenges that needed to be faced? What are some of the things that we would do differently if we could do them over again, keeping in mind that we would not be who we are today if we had not had the experiences? This particular episode is very much a conversation. It's not so much an interview as a philosophical chat between two very close friends. While it goes a little bit deeper than we might have if we were just meeting for breakfast, I do feel that this conversation is representative of so many of the very helpful discussions that we have enjoyed over the years, and I hope that you are able to gain something from it as well and feel free to chime in with your own thoughts on any of the subjects we discussed. You can do that by adding it to the comments, section below. Some of the key things that stood out from the discussion with Derek include: 1. The empowering value of letting go 2. Reframing “regret” and appreciating who you are now as the sum of your collective experience 3. Getting to the cause of something (as opposed to continually treating symptoms) and being mind of which example or path you’re choosing to follow We talked about everything from Aerosmith to alcohol, Christmas to contentment and media to mindfulness. It was a real pleasure to dive into these subjects with Derek. I hope you enjoy it. ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

Allison Graham is a business growth consultant, speaker, and best-selling author of “Married My Mom, Birthed a Dog: How To Be Resilient When Life Sucks.” Our discussion came just about at the time of the creative culmination of the book, keynote speaking and related business launch that she had first conceived of more than a half-decade ago. Though Allison has achieved and enjoyed a significant level of success helping businesses and business people become more effective with their sales and networking, as you will hear, she has long had a passion for wanting to contribute to the personal development field in an effort to be a help to others. Some of the key things Allison has taken from her journey include: 1. Identifying and re-voicing what she calls “The Internal Messenger of BS.” 2. Awareness. More specifically, self-awareness, and how that may have been a great benefit to her if she had it to do all over again. 3. Forgiveness. As Allison put it: “What it takes to forgive is a very long journey but you let go in an instant …from that moment the healing, I believe, really truly began." Allison's is a remarkable story filled with all kinds of caring, authentic and valuable bits of hard-earned perspective that are sure to serve you well as you reflect upon your journey and road ahead also. ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

When I first heard about a guy who invites musicians into his car so that he can conduct a quick interview, have them perform a song, and then create a video episode of each encounter, I was immediately intrigued. I also had a lot of question about how he got the idea and how he was making it happen. Jeff Boudreau is the creator and host of the fabulously creative web video series, “Jeff’s Musical Car.” Based in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada, Jeff has produced over 250 episodes at the time we recorded this podcast, ranging from local artists from the Moncton music scene all the way to Internationally renowned talents such guitarist, Jesse Cook. Jeff has chauffeured a few of the musicians that easily fall into my top ten of any list of my favourite music, including Colin & John-Angus MacDonald from The Trews, David Francey and The Fortunate Ones, though I’ve yet to see an episode where I wasn’t impressed by the musicianship of Jeff’s companion for that particular video. Jeff’s story is a terrific example of the power of an idea and the fuel that genuine passion gives to it. I continue to be amazed by what people can do when they’re acting from their heart and allowing themselves to learn as they go while enjoying the process. Jeff Boudreau and his Musical Car are an exceptional positive example for the rest of us in that regard. Some of the key takeaways I got from Jeff’s “Musical Car” Journey: 1. The gratification that comes from pursuing an idea and allowing yourself to figure it out and get better as you go. As Jeff puts it, "There's no guidebook on how to record bands in vehicles." 2. The value of building relationships & power of networking with patience and good intentions. 3. Expressing and encouraging creativity is its own reward, and the value of real connection and human experience are gifts the process will present to you. ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

What does a NASCAR-style pit crew changing tires have to do with high-performing business culture? Quite a lot, as it turns out, and Bob Parker is the man who puts people – quite literally – into the action to discover that for themselves. Bob is a Speaker, Experience leader, Management Consultant & Facilitator and Author of “The Pit Crew Challenge: Winning Customers Through Teaming.” The “Pit Crew Challenge” also serves as the name of Bob’s benchmark program for the last many years, a metaphorical learning experience that builds high-performing cultures leading to greater efficiencies. He does this by bringing an actual late model (NASCAR-style) race car to people. At the time that we produced this episode, Bob and his team have put over 16,000 people through the program, changing well beyond 155,000 wheel nuts in the process, traveling all over North America and around the world. Bob also is the man behind the brand “Walk on wet paint,” a really neat idea that helps encourage people to help break free from their constraints, real or perceived. Some Key Takeaways To Listen For: 1. The idea of culture as opposed to “team-building.” 2. The importance of failing. 3. The effect of just one loose lug nut. Just one lug nut (or wheel nut) being the slightest bit loose will magnify itself over time into a bad vibration. And that’ll cost you, on the race track, in business and in life. It was a lot of fun to get back into talking about some of this racing stuff. It reminded me of what drew me into that business to begin with, so many years ago. Enjoy! ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

Kevin reflects on the process that led to beginning the podcast and how it’s evolved in the first year. He talks about some of the people he’s met, what he’s learned, what some of the “aha” moments were that have shaped the evolution of both the podcast and Kevin’s personal and professional journey, and he shares what it all could mean to help you in getting started with something you’ve been thinking of doing for yourself. Some Key Takeaways: · Get to know yourself so you can hear, recognize & trust the whispers from the universe (intuition) that resonate with your heart, and put them into action. · Get (and keep) moving forward but allow yourself to be blown sideways from time-to-time. You may get pushed (or pulled) somewhere better than you originally thought you were going. · Trust that the way will show itself to you. It will. It can be scary, throwing the road out in front of you as you run, but it’s what you’re already doing anyway for something that is likely far less fulfilling. · Choose to have persistence in not listening to the negative voices that are trying to hold you back. They’re never going to go away. But you can choose not to let them control you. · If you don’t get started with something today, you’ll never know how it might affect tomorrow. No action = nothing changing. · Every second, every moment is a new beginning ©2016 Kevin Bulmer

Jim Cressman is a professional baseball umpire and retired sportswriter. He still umpires and has been doing so for over 50 years. I know Jim best as a sportswriter. For decades, Jim covered sports for the London Free Press, the daily paper in the city where we live. He was responsible for all kinds of topics, including the old London Tigers baseball team we had here for a time (an Eastern League AA affiliate of the Detroit Tigers), the London Knights of the Ontario Hockey League, all kinds of major league sporting events, and even auto racing coverage out at the stock car track near here called Delaware Speedway, where I worked in various capacities for about a decade and where I got to know Jim best. Listening to Jim talk about how they used to get stories written and submitted is a whole lot of fun. If you have any interest at all in news media, journalism or reporting, you’ll love it. Umpiring, on the other hand, took Jim to the Olympics and other international events, as well as through baseball’s minor leagues. Had work visas been more readily available, Jim may never have been a sportswriter to begin with, as it’s likely he would have ended up as an umpire in the major leagues. We discuss that, too. Some of the key steps in the journey that I took away from my time with Jim included: 1. Perspective. Whether it’s with writing or umpiring or anything else, we’re all looking at life through a different lense. That fact alone can explain a lot of “taken out of context” complaints. 2. What you love most seems to stay with you. In Jim’s case, it’s umpiring, and an appreciation for sharing new experiences with other people. 3. The art of actually being there & the value of human connection. These two things put together answered some questions I’d had about Jim for years, like how come he’s not written a book or started a blog? The answers emerge in this discussion. ©2016 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

Sometimes a book comes along with exactly what you need to hear precisely when you need to hear it. That describes my recent experience with a book called "10% Happier" by Dan Harris. Every now and then, the contents of such a book can become a permanent part of your journey, personality, and thought process from that point forward. With that in mind, I decided to do a podcast on five books that have had that effect on me and to share my personal stories of why they’ve meant so much. My hope is that it will eventually help someone else, and possibly even save them from some of the personal challenges I've been through. The five books & stories are: 1. Conscious Living by Gay Hendricks and how it helped me through a divorce and the process of personal reinvention in the time since 2. Five Wishes by Gay Hendricks and how it helped me to see what I needing to be doing (or not doing) to be able to view my life as a success 3. The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz and how it began helped me to see a lot of the traps I was setting for myself (making assumptions, taking things personally) and what to do about it 4. The Magic of Thinking Big by David. J Schwartz and what happened to me when I began to do everything it suggested 5. Tao Te Ching (Stephen Mitchell Translation) and how it began to transform my view of things like strength, power & peace of mind. I also mention a couple of others that have helped me understand what my "Upper Limit Problems" are and how I can be making quantum leaps in my life from this point on.

Jennifer Farmer is an intuitive, medium and spiritual teacher whose greatest passion is empowering you to embrace joy and inner peace through the deep healing of spiritual readings, teachings and guided meditations. I first learned of her work a couple of years ago by way of one of her guided meditation videos on YouTube. Amidst my early exploration of a higher level of awareness and at the time I was first dipping my toes into the pool of an initial practice of meditation, I somehow found Jennifer voice, approach, and energy rather soothing and appealing. I have been a fan of her work ever since and am truly grateful that I got the chance to connect with her for this conversation. Among the many things that stood out for me from my time with Jennifer were: 1. Choice over your view of your experience. She talked about deciding to view the world as a friendly place, and putting to use effective tools to maintain and nurture that view, such as counselling, meditation, prayer, action & service to others. 2. The other side of that choice, and what it represents. She noted how some people choose to come at life through a lower energy frequency, using things like blame, guilt and regret to shape their view. In that case, Jennifer suggests that such a person is “learning to connect to life through suffering,” and she suggests that, while EACH of us will encounter some form of suffering along the way, how LONG we suffer can be optional. I find that hopeful and empowering. 3. She shared three main things that are essential tools for success: Awareness, Learning How to Control Your Mind, and the Ability to Let Go & Renew, which we discussed at greater length. There was SO much else to soak, such as what she shared about “Energy Management” and how “at a spirit level, we’re all the same.” I also noted when she shared that she gets messages when she’s in a calm state. I found that interesting, as I rarely feel inspired or intuitive when I’m frantic or exhausted. I hope you enjoy the conversation with Jennifer Farmer! ©2016 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

Kim Von Berg is a long-time love coach, is passionate about transforming the lives and relationships of singles and couples - and has owned and operated Thriving Loving Relationships since 1997. She is a certified singles and couples coach, a communication specialist, a credentialed teacher and holds a master’s degree in Humanistic Psychology. In addition, she is certified in Neuro-Linguistic Programming and about to certified as a Calling in the One Coach. I could have talked with Kim for hours. I feel strongly that anyone in any kind of a relationship can benefit greatly by hearing and truly taking to heart what Kim has so share. Among the key takeaways from the conversation with Kim are: 1. It starts with self. This is true of so many things in life, and relationships are no different. The manifest of your outer reality all begins from your inner dialogue. 2. Coming to a relationship from a place of "I" instead of "You." Here's an example: If I say, "I feel this way," it's not really arguable. I'm sharing how I'm feeling about something. I'm not stating a cause: I'm sharing the effect. But as soon as I say, "You made me feel this way," the defenses go up and the fight is on. To that end ... 3. No one can make you feel anything. Easy as it is to blame and criticize, if you're upset, that's your choice. This is a pill that many (most?) people don't want to swallow. But until you can accept this medicine, you're going to remain stuck. On the other hand, as soon as you take responsibility for your own thoughts and feelings, you'll begin to feel more empowered and secure than you could ever have imagined. But it takes practice. ©2016 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

Michelle Dutro is the host of The Game Changer Podcast and creator of Inner North Star.com. She describes herself as being inspired by people who are willing to risk it all to pursue their dream, stand up for what they believe, or go above and beyond to help another. Like me, she has a natural curiosity about the mindset of these kinds of people and she loves to discover what sets them apart. She refers to these kinds of people as “Game Changers” and by reaching out to them, she’s able to share the stories of their challenges, their successes and most importantly their “why” behind what they do. Here are a handful of key thoughts I took from the conversation with Michelle: 1. Structure and Discipline with Creativity. You must have structure and discipline enough to complete and share your creative gifts. 2. The Snow Globe analogy. Everyone needs time to just “be” with zero input, and let things settle before deciding on the next step. 3. Making friends with challenge. 4. You don’t get what you want. You get what you are. ©2016 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises

The power of “No.” This one seems almost counter-intuitive, but it’s a key area of struggle for many compassionate people. 3. Taking responsibility. This is a powerful story from a kind, genuine and dynamic woman. It was my great privilege to spend the time with her, and I’m equally as grateful to be able to share her spirit with you now. ©2016 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises
