As a voice actor for more than 15 years Mike has worked with clients such as Xerox, Hershey, Dell, Microsoft, Bayer, Coca-Cola and many more on commercials, eLearning projects, real estate videos, corporate and web-based videos, and brand imaging. Mike has also appeared in regional and national television commercials as an on-camera talent and was the host of a local TV talk show in Saratoga Springs, NY for a number of years. Mike is also an accomplished audiobook narrator with more than 100 titles narrated to date. With titles in genres ranging from Fiction, Entertainment, Science, and Children’s to Christian, Business, Self-Help and History, Mike loves bringing non-fiction and fiction stories to life with his engaging, confident, and trustworthy voice. Mike is also a Voice Arts Award nominated podcast producer of a popular Voice Over podcast, and the creator of Podcast Snap, a podcast consulting service, helping his clients with every step of their podcast creation and production. Mike is the author of Paid to Talk - A Journey Into Voice Acting and is a frequent speaker at Learning and Voice Over conferences. He currently lives in Saratoga Springs, NY with his wife and 4 children. Highlights from the interview Before becoming a voice actor, Mike ran the pharmacy that’s been in his family since 1960. He is a former Council Member and Mayor of Saratoga Springs, NY. After his position as mayor ended, he explored his creative side: screenwriting, film-making, voiceovers, etc. He enjoyed the communication piece of his public service: “using his voice.” After his 1st VO coaching session, he realized he loved it. The journey began. 2-3 years ago, he become a full time voice actor (made the switch from pharmacist to voice actor). It took > 10 years to make his part-time side hustle his full-time job. Mike has had some great voice actors on his podcast! Examples include Harlan Hogan, Rodney Saulsberry, and Tom Dheere. Mike asks his guests about their journey, obstacles they overcame, lessons they learned, and advice for aspiring voice actors. Mike and I shared a nonfiction audiobook narration coach, Sean Pratt. We both graduated around the first of September 2020. For each finished hour of audio for an audiobook, there are several hours of audio engineering after recording. Building relationships in the voiceover and audiobook industries pays off. Among other things, referrals keep Mike busy working! Audiobooks, course books for online colleges, etc. Conferences have changed Mike’s life. One example is APAC (Audiobook Publisher’s Association Conference). Meeting people and building relationships led to more work. The voiceover industry is a giving community with authentic relationships. We refer our friends because when you give, you receive. What goes around, comes around. There was an element of faith in making a leap from pharmacy to VO. Mike says, “Just get in the boat!” And see where it takes you. You only connect the dots looking backward. Mike has demos on his website for IVR (interactive voice response/on-hold messaging), elearning, audiobooks, commercials, and narration. Mike uses the VoiceZam player to help potential clients find and listen to his demos easily. Outside audiobook publishers, Mike’s clients include podcast clients, elearning, corporate clients, and on-hold messaging. Everything revolves around his audiobooks schedule. How does Mike care for his voice? He does warm-ups, including tongue twisters, humming, and vocal warm-ups. He stays hydrated and tries to get his sleep. Mike has done some live announcing. It’s fun for him, and he has booked the work thanks to referrals from other voice actors. Mike has an online course called VO Success.

Topics include focusing, performance training, the business of the business, branding, and recording in a home studio. Lifetime membership (as of October 23, 2020) is $97 USD.

GEORGE: Welcome back to other episode of the mind of George show. The mind that sometimes I believe belongs in a straight jacket, but I think my level of craziest just enough and it's my podcast. So I want to share with the world, but I am excited about today's episode, the man, the myth, the legend, somebody that I call a friend, even though we haven't met in real life yet, but it's coming the voice of angels, the voice of entrepreneurs, the voice of the internet.I don't even know how to describe him, but he's somebody that I follow immensely and intensely and who I do follow any motivates me in so many areas and not like that kind of fake motivation of like, Oh, I feel like it today. It's like consistent, loaded with heart loaded, with love, loaded, with positive energy.Talking about everything from loving your life, loving your wife. Getting your finances in check and delivering it with that smooth sound that just cures your heart. And so before I go any further and like butcher this beyond belief, let me welcome my friend Donald. So Donna, welcome to the show. My friend, DONALD: My guy. What's up, man. George Bryant,how you doing bro?GEORGE: I am good. I'm good. I told everybody, I told Donald before the show guys that I was. I love my voice. Now I've learned to love it through being friends with Donald. And I was like, but when I hear him, man, I'm like, I'm about to go. I don't know, find a hobby that makes me wheezy and add some depth to my voice that, or I need an accent.I think I need an accent. I don't know what it is. I feel like when you get like an Australian or European accent, it buys you permission to speak. However you want. Everyone's like, God, that sounds amazing. DONALD: That's so true, man. That's such a know like, like I told you, everyone has the voice and you, you have a voice that, that cuts through in a different way. So I love it for that. And thanks mate for having me. I'm excited, bro.GEORGE: Yeah, me too. Me too. So for those of you that don't know, so,what's your Instagram, it's Donald the voice, right? DONALD: Donald the voice, Donald the voice, just like. The duck.GEORGE: Donald the voice, but you do a lot of voiceovers. You do commercials, you do, you know, audio interviews, you do everything.So this question I'm about to ask you is probably going to have a different answer than I get most of the time. And so when you look back at your journey, your rise to this voice and doing what you do, what do you think looking back was like the biggest mistake that you ever made in business. And then what was the lesson that you took out of it?DONALD: Whoa. There's so many ways that I can answer that question. And this is something that I've come to realize recently, maybe in the last nine months to a year, was that Donald the voice had no voice. Here's what I mean by that. I was in a place George, not too long ago. About a year ago, where whether it was childhood hurt or there was insecurity, whether it was fear, whether it was being afraid to be bold, be courageous, everything that was external for me, external success, leaving my full time job of almost a decade of teaching middle school and launching out for time into entrepreneurship.I got into this thing and I was like, wow, why am I afraid? To truly be myself to show the full gamut of my journey as a man that just so happens to include being a most recent entrepreneur. Right. And so I would say my biggest mistake was this was launching out in business and not having a true voice, not really understanding myself what I bring to the world and what my pain points are and seeing that that's all a part.Of the total package of being a businessman that you can't divorce, how you aren't business from who you are on the inside. And how we really do provide value to the world from the inside out. And so whenever that's in congruent, you're bound to have this amazing thing externally that people look at it and they apply it and amazing voice, national commercials, like all those cool stuff.But on the inside, you're like either not happy or discontent or the people that you really care about. Don't like you. Yeah. And you're like, wait a minute, this is backwards. So I would say the biggest mistake that I've made recently, man in business was realizing, or it wasn't a mistake. It was coming to the realization that, okay.I got to find my voice. And so my voice is not just Donald who Donald is externally, but it is the guy who is very who silly, who was a kid at heart, but who was also deeply spiritual, but also loves his wife like crazy. But also we'll get down to the floor and play in blow on his four year old belly.It's also the guy who will, you know, who has black friends or white friends who is a little bit of a conservative, but may also lean liberal at any point in time. and that's all to me. But I bring my full voice to the world in that way, man. So that's what I was thinking. I probably not where you were expecting to get.GEORGE: now that's what I wanted. I knew that I knew that's where we were going. I knew that's where we go. And, and, and what I think is so profound about that though, is that, you know, like to summarize that and I'm going to unpack it a little bit more, it's like really to summarize that it's like the biggest mistake was pretending to be somebody that was in congruent to who I really was Right. And so. And what's sad to me is like, that's what we see a lot of the time, right? We fall into this trap of like, what they see on social media is real. What they see on social media is real. And I think there's two sides to it. There's, you know, some complicitness on those of us that consume. And, but that's what real life is.But then there's also some responsibility on our side, you know, to figure out, you know, who we are and who we want to be. And I think you nailed it because I want to pick this out. You said. You know, I am, you know, Donald, I love my wife. I love my kids. This is what I stand for. And then I take that and share that of the world versus who is world, want me to be, and then adjust everything else because the followed on the backend is, it's deep and it's hard and it hurts. And I've taken it many, many times and I've heard the feedback. It's like you're being different. Is that what you'd say in your men's group? I was like, ouch, no crap. Meditating time walking time. Right.So when you, when you think about that now, because you've, you've made that shift and you've done it pretty well. And I mean, I've followed you for a while and we talk a lot. When you think about that now, What do you think the hardest part is as you go throughout your day to maintain that? Like, because in my world, right? Like you, and I both know you just had this happen on vacation. Like you're like, and I'm sharing my voice, then all of a sudden your voice has controlling your daily actions.And so like, what are you struggle with the most? And like, how do you put containers or how do you work through that to make sure that the gifts that you have that you're sharing is doing its job versus being a distraction or a detriment to what you're building. DONALD: Oh, man. Hey, I love you, man. I mean, I love, I love that you are not only are you a business genius, that release just so much value in light and generosity, but I love that you have so much depth to you.So that, that question is I would say, is this the hardest thing for me it's has been knowing when to knowing when to hunt. Yeah, it went like click that on and then knowing when to serve. And so that's been tough for me because coming from a pretty conservative backgroundhaving taught at private like Christian schools, like most of my lifecoming from a biblical framework.What's so interesting is this George is that I really had to shed a lot of the. A lot of the language that a lot of times, people of faith have where you're taught to serve, but it comes at the expense of your health and of yourself. And so your servitude, it's a little idolatrous in that this, you began to believe that the more that you serve.The more value you have and the moment that your opportunity to serve is goneor you look around and you realize, wait a minute, I don't even know what I lied. I don't know myself. I don't have a voice. I had a season in my life recently where I began to become really bitter at just the process of I have not, no.how do I serve, but then, okay, now I am an entrepreneur. And yes, there is a level two servant hood and entrepreneurship, but as a man, I have to know how to hunt and if I don't go out there and kill it and bring it back home, that's an issue, right? Like that's an issue, not having that ability to dig deep and to see opportunity.And to not necessarilybe someone who has the killer instinct or who was trying to be predatory in any way, but how do I have this governor where I'm able to hunt when it's time to hunt, but then be as gentle as a lamb when it was time to be as gentle as a lamb and serve. And so for me, I would say. Finding that centerness in a way has been a journey, man. So I'm still in the midst of it. Daily I succeed daily fail depending on what time of the day it is. But man, like what a journey has been, because I feel like that's given me more of a truth. to my journey where it's like, I had to have it all figured out I'm in process.I mean, well, but at the end of the day especially just where we are just like, you know, instead of the world, there has to be a level of tuition. Like if I'm not,aggressive, lovely, dissatisfied but then also, like, I understand, okay, look,the way that you are going to get ahead or the way that you're going to be able to continue to provide for your family is you have to be able to be a man who does it differently.But at the end of the day, people see that as weakness. So how do I then fortify myself so that, you know, I'm not taking advantage of, you know it's a process of the mass. So figuring that out has been the tough, the toughest part of this journey, I will sayGEORGE: Well, I think what you said, I think, I think. Part of it is that your progress and pursuit of progress is the statement that you have it figured out. Because it is progress over perfection. Right? Jim Kwik says this all the time and I love Jim to pieces. Right. But like, you know, like even, even hearing what you say, there's a couple things I want to unpack and I love it.Like, this is such an awesome and powerful conversation. That's needed. You need to be hot. Just, so everybody knows. I have this conversation, my cell phone, 843 times an hour. And, to give credit where it's due my business partner, Stefano Siffandos says this. I ask them all the time, right? We sit here, we want to serve. We want to serve. And it's like, if you ask Stefanos, Hey man, I want to, I want to serve, what do you do? He's like, if you want to deepen your service, you must deepen your practiceHello lighthouse analogy. Let's go. Right. Let's fortify that foundation. Right. But I think in even what you said, it's the pursuit. Of the progress and the implementation of the progress that makes the statement that you have it figured out because there really is no other in my. And I've learned this and I've, I like to test myself, right? Like I like to put myself through the self sabotaging ringer, right? The adversity ringer, the all of it.But really when you look at it at the end of the day, this was said to me that too, and I think you'll appreciate this suffering is optional. Cause it's all perspective, right? That's all it is. And like, when I hear you say this, I think it's such a powerful Testament to like, you know, the garden will grow wherever we plant that and water it. And what you're talking about is like, Hey, like I'm moving forward, I'm doing this. I'm increasing my level of self awareness, which is allowing me to fortify my sovereignty, right. Or to give myself more power or to, to be that beacon and to do it. And. In that same process though, you're, you're loving yourself more and more and more every day because you're exploring and here's, what's funny.A felon says this the best that I could ever say it. So West Watson is like one of the most. You, you get my voice, right? I'm a pretty aggressive, like I was in the Marine Corps. So like, I respond to that well, and I've healed the parts of my childhood that didn't respond to that now actually like getting yelled at, by my friends, right?Like it, it cuts through the noise for me in West was a, a felon for 10 years. And there was a massive Instagram influencer. He is one of the most woke people I've ever met in my life I've ever seen in my life. And what his mantra is is that you build the man that you give away every day. Your job is to still build the man that you give away every day. And I think that that's something that you do every day that I see, and it doesn't matter if it's like, Oh, I'm at the beach or I'm on this vacation or I'm blowing, you know, kisses to my daughter's belly, or I'm telling my wife watch lever, or I'm recording a voiceover or doing a commercial. Yeah. And so I, I love that man. Like I really, this is a topic we haven't talked about a lot on the podcast. I don't think I've talked about it at all. But I think it's so important because I think a lesson I'd love to know your thoughts on this. I think a lesson is even in the labels get dangerous, right? Like I was a teacher now I'm a dad. Now I'm a husband and I'm an entrepreneur. And I was like, okay, But you weren't any of those things? eah. Right. I know about you, but when I get bored, like I studied duality and quantum mechanics and quantum physics, I like to mess with my mind. Yeah. And then if you really think about it, like I was reading this thing and watch this interview and they asked the question and they're like, Who are you?And like, my brain was like, I'm blah. And they're like, no, no, no. Cause were you born that way? And I was like, no. And I'm like, so, and then I went to States of being, I was like, well, I'm giving and I'm loving. They're like in every moment I'm like, okay, no. And then like you keep going. There is no answer to that question. because it's whoever you choose to be in that moment. And man, I think that's something that I love and about what you do every day is I see you with body that right. You just took two weeks off. You got reconnected, you plugged in. But I think for entrepreneurs, I think it's really important that we have this conversation because it's easy to be like, I'm an entrepreneur, I'm a voiceover artist, I'm a business owner. I'm a whatever. And it's like, maybe, or maybe those are things that you're giving away every day. DONALD: Yeah. Yeah. So you just so much on the head. So it even comes down to the way that, I mean, in your world when it comes down to branding, right? So like the way in which people in their bio, you know, you're taught to have like the thing that you want to be known as, right.And even for me, what's so funny is this, I literally just recently switched my ID profile from the personal to the business. And so I'm kind of scrolling through all the little categories and stuff and I'm like what category do I fit in? And I was like, okay, I'm just going to pick one.This doesn't really define me, but I had to realize, okay, there's something to that where categories. We're talking about categories where we're pigeonholed into these different things, and then it's like you don't have space to evolve out of that. So even in the world of voiceover, I had to learn.Donald, yes. Your voice does have like a natural baritone like range. But what would happen if you began to push the limits of that? If you wanted to do children's book narrations. And so when I landed my first children's book, narration gig, I was like, wow. If I pigeon hole myself to just doing nonfiction audio books for faith-based authors, I would have never had the range that I now have George to be able to literally to pull in sound effects and create this whole, all the world for a child who's in between the ages of five and 10 with these wacky voices where like my octave range is up like five, you know what I'm saying?Like beyondwhat it normally is. And so when you just talked about that, Labels, man. I think that is so important to begin to shed that and come back to this place. Okay. Who am I before I think about all that things that I do write a teacher or a voiceover artist or a businessman.Those are things that I do, but, or even as a dad or a husband, and most recently in my marriage. Yes. Like I've been so blessed to have this amazing woman in my life. But before I became her husband, it's like, who, who was that guy? Because ultimately, like you say it, the man that we build every day is the man that we present to the world.But I would have even mentioned to say that even in my family, the man that I build everyday is the man that I present even to the two most important people, like in my entire world. And so when you said that has challenged me so much when my wow. That is so profound because if I don't. If I lose sight of my being, ultimately what our present is going to be diluted, and it's not going to be as potent as it potentially could be if I were written out as I truly am.You know what I'm saying? It's so, man, that isanother layer of that is this is when I, you know, most recently I went to some counseling. Just in relation to some childhood trauma and working through that. And one of the things that my counselor told me, he was like, Hey, you know, so much of counseling.This isn't about exposing you. But this is really about, you being surgically like put back together. And so many parts of you, like, we are so educated as human beings to where, when we kind of get into a space of, okay. I can't think that thought, or I can't feel that because of ABC or D. It kind of takes away like this beautiful experience for us to be so usAnd so for us to figure ourselves and be like I'm this. You're really taking away, like the beauty and the power of you being nuanced. And all of that nuance is a mosaic that you present to the world is beautiful. You know what I'm saying?GEORGE: I love it, man. I love it. You know, it's, you know, it's really interesting is that as we're talking about this, like I'm getting clarity in my life.I'm getting all these things, but I'm going to go back to what you said in the beginning about. The broken paradigm that somehow more service equals more value because in that world. And I think it's important to talk about that. I believe the defining point of whether it's service or gratification of the ego is the come from.If it's service or distraction or service or addiction determines on where it's coming from. Yeah. And I think this is like a, kind of like a beautiful wrap because you know, this happens in my world all the time. When I teach companies like, Oh, give more, give agnostic of credit card gave blah, blah, blah.And they're like, I am, and it's not working. I was like, well, the fact that you're telling me, it's not working means you're not doing it. Cause there is no measure on service. And so what I think is really interesting is that as we think about these, like what I've come to realize in my life, that containers are so important, right? Like just being intentional about what I do and we can be walking tweetables and cliches all day. Like I don't like being a tweetable, but I'm okay with it sometimes. But why you gotta put your oxygen mask on first. You got to do that. And I think when we in-company all of this. I've actually started to learn that like self care and self service and like sovereignty exploration and self-awareness and that level of attention to self ends up creating a byproduct of service to the world.really interesting because I live in this world where like, I teach this lighthouse analogy, right. Yup. But yet there's times I fall into, I'm like, Oh, I have to post more. I have to be out there more. I have to be out there more. And then I get burnt out and I disappear for two weeks. And in that two weeks we get more traction than we've ever gotten so true, bro. And so I just think it's areally powerful concept. And so I want to, I want to talk to you about your positive mindset. Like, cause I'm being really honest, man. You like, you know, like you like piss sunshine and rainbows and unicorns and I love it. Like I want to know what water you're drinking.But I think what's so beautiful about it is I know you're a human, you're a husband, you're a father, you're a businessman and that, I know that you experienced the same gamut of emotions and resistance instructions. Sure. You know, challenging moments that we all do, but man, you are always like, I don't want to even call you.I can optimist. I feel like you are authentic and you express, and then you move here. And so can you talk about that and like how you look at that and like how you choose to show up every day and like what goes into that and what that looks like? Because I think that's what carries so much weight with why people resonate with you.DONALD: Yeah. May I, so look, I thank you so much. That's, that's very affirming because I know the truth behind that the optics of me being a person who is positive because again, most recently I've realized, that there was a big difference between. Again, man, like being congruently positive, like really living that from the inside out as opposed to I have to be positive because I know people like positivity.And so I want to receive that, you know, like it's's such a world of difference. And so what's been so awesome. Is this is that as I've gone down the rabbit hole of a mindset and subconscious mind in all of these different things, I've realized, wow. Um, In order for me to be quote unquote positive or to radiate any kind of light. I have to plug into some kind of source like of that. And so for me, it starts out like early in the morning, where I get up and between five and five 30, and I literally will spend an hour and a half to two hours, doing like a light workout, eat my breakfast.You know what I'm saying? Like reading. I'm listening to, you know, positive, upbeat, you know, worshipful type type music. And that really gets me in a space George, where anything that I'm anxious about for the day. Because as you go on business, you have a thousand and a million things going on. Right. And that can, that can began to creep into just you wake up and you allow care.Like I got to get to, but I've learned, okay. No, no, no. It's not about waking up and getting to it. Like hustle culture, I think has permeated this idea that if you're not working 18 hours a day, then you're not really doing it. It's like, bro, like that is not sustainable. And your wife, don't like you, and you wonder why, you're a total jackass.You know what I'm saying? It's because like, your body is not meant to keep up with that kind of pace life for too long. So I would say for me, man, it starts out early in the morning. I have stillness. I think, secondly, This has been something that's been super huge for me.Brendan Bouchard put together this amazing high performance journal.I have mine somewhere where literally male life the night before I go to this thing and I have to give account for my time. Making that jump from employee to entrepreneur where you walk in and from whatever time, eight to five, or in my case from seven 30 to two, I knew what my day was like.I knew what classes I had to teach. I knew the papers that I had to grey. I knew when all my breaks were, I knew played out further. I knew when Christmas break was coming up, summer break, like everything, my schedule, my time. It was almost like thought of for me. I'll plug it into a system. Whereas now it hit me in between the dog eyes was like, Donald, you now have to create this system.And as a creator, Well, a guy who does like rainbows and sunshine, right? Like that. I think there's like being a voiceover artist and in a video editor in these things, like, I think in movies, right. It's like, I literally made like here in our home, you know worked from home and it's one of those beautiful things where it's like, I'm able to literally create all day every day, but literally what was going to prevent me from going farther in my business was having a system that I was held accountable to our some here recently, what was almost said, accountability is accounting for your ability.And so now, as I think about my positivity, George. I can only be positive to the level, to which I have a sense of accountability and someone else I heard recently said, Hey, the most confident people that you could think of in your life. Are probably going to be the people who keep promises to themselves.And so when I think about the days that I don't keep the promise to myself to get up at a certain time to do a certain thing, whenever I say I'm going to do it, my confidence wanes and thus my positivity wanes. And so my confidence isn't necessarily in my ability, like to get it done. But it's just, it's something so simple and so small as keeping my word to myself.How can I ever keep my word to you if I don't keep my word to my dog and myself. And so I think positivity is linked to confidence and confidence to me is, is linked to accountability, like accountability for what you say you're going to do and who you're going to be. GEORGE: I literally came up with a tweetable and it makes my heart happy. Like either the level of positivity or the level of confidence is correlated to the depth of your heart. The level, the level of happiness in your life as correlated to the depth of your practice. And, and man, I couldn't, I couldn't agree more. I actually just worked on the structure for our mastermind cause I'm changing the curriculum and I'm holding.Changing what I'm doing, but I came up with a daily practice and the first thing I do now is I teach them to turn the light on and that's in the morning, first thing you get up. Right. Andthat's not with music. That's alone time. That's I call that source. I call that wisdom right. When you get to sit in that and observe you don't have to catch it all, but you get to observe, observe the thought, observe the feeling. I call that wisdom. Like that's you plugging into whatever source you believe in. It gives you that intention set your day for the day. And then we end with off at the end of the day where it's just like you do, you reflect back and you look at like, okay, where to go today, where it didn't go.I have a question for you because you were a teacher. Right? So like, you were very, very structured, right? Like, and you said like that. The structure is advocated to the people who built the curriculum and whatever, private, public, whatever was there. And so, yeah, so basically you got to show up to the bowling alley, never bowling before and already knew you were going to hit the pins.Cause they were bumper, right? Like that's, that's how I see it. And we have to create those containers for ourselves. Yeah. Has there ever been a point in your life where like you have not woken up with an alarm clock or even in like the last couple of years where like, you're like, Oh, I'm just going to sleep in or I'll wake up whenever versus like how you feel when you're intentional the night before, because there's this thing.And like, I hated it getting up early in the Marine Corps. I would get up at 3:30 every day and I had to have a long commute and then I got out and I was like, I'm never using an alarm clock again. And I went the other way. And then recently I did the 75 hard and I found myself DONALD: Thank you. I'm so proud of you. That's amazing. GEORGE: Yeah, man. And so I was like, I was getting up at four 30. And it was a struggle for me. And then I was like, I'm sacrificing an hour with my son in the morning. Cause he wakes up at five 45 and no matter what, he's not saying his room, he's going to be four next month you get this right.So when he's awake, he's up and he's like, daddy, it's time, daddy. It's time. And like I'll never have those moments again, he's not going to be 18 years old at five 45 tugging on my foot and be like, daddy, come get up with me. It was like, I was like, Oh, that's fine. Lindsay can get up with them. That's fine.I'm at the gym. And then I was like, F that I was like, how can I get both done? I was like, if I go to the gym at three 30, I'll be home by five, 15 I'll journal. And I'll be here when he wakes up tomorrow. And I did that for the 75 days and it was the easiest thing I've ever done. Wow. And then I finished the 75 hard and I was like, Oh, and we traveled, my wife had surgery and I was like, Oh, I'll just sleep in today.And I swear the fallout from that one day lasted four or five days emotionally. And it wasn't even that, like, I didn't keep my word it's that I made a backdoor for myself because there was no logical reason that I shouldn't be watering the plants the same way. Come on, bro. And I was like, why. I'm like my tired.I'm like, no, I'm like, am I making my day harder? Yeah. I'm like, what am I sacrificing? What am I pretending not to know? Like, that's my favorite question. I ask myself, what am I pretending not to know or not to see. And so it sounds like you've experienced like a lot of that stuff. Right. And so do you carry that through your day as well?Like when you're thinking about recording, when you're thinking about cause you create and you create a lot, but there's times you create for you and then you have to put this other mask on to create for other people. True. Right. So like, how do you go through your day? And compartmentalize might be the right word, but containerize or plan through that to set yourself up to win.Because I feel like it will be really easy as a creative to create for yourself, but then get pulled into somebody else's world and lose track of who you are. What's that like? DONALD: 1000%. So I would say and that's for me, like I'm just so blown away at process and in the evolution of our human experience, aware and jumping into entrepreneurship, becoming a business owner, like all these different phrases and, you know, like just pretty, but pretty much stepping away from the 9 to 5 life.It hit me man, where it was like, wow, if I don't deal with some of these internal things that I keep rubbing up against. So for examplethere was a period of time where in terms of like clients or even like with my wife, this has been maybe at this point too three years ago where we were doingthis YouTube channel.And, you know, we're making like some great headway, like capturing family content, like encouraging people, yada yada, yada, and as a creative she came into my world video editing, like documentation and like all this cool stuff. And we began to butt heads where I felt like. She, uh, she didn't let me like create, right.And she's like, I don't understand, like, what's the big deal. I'm just saying like, do it this way. Like, I know how women, like, like the, like this color or this palette, and it began to hit on my insecurity. It began to hit on me not being able to relinquish that creative thing. Whereas I have to paint, like there has to be no rhyme or reason about I have to paint, but it carry over recently here and in the last 18 months where.As I began to work with clients and they had a certain sound that they wanted, my pride began to, well, it began where it was kind of like. I know what's best creatively. It was kinda like Donald, like they're coming to you for a service. So yes, like you may know, but if you truly are trying and seeking to serve them and ended up paying you, then they kind of do have like the final say.And then at the end of the day, like bro, like what's the big deal. And so when you talk about being a creative, I've had to understand that if I'm serving other people with my gift, that. When I step into this space, it really is about their vision. And they ask me to step into a different space where they're asking me to consult or to give my professional opinion, then I'll do that.But when I leave with that, because I'm still in a very elementary state, a very infantile state in this journey. What'll happen is George. I will become insecure if I feel like I'm going to be rejected as something as some kind of way, I'll feel like, okay. If I say what I think creatively, and they don't like it, then that means something about me.And whenever that began to happen, I got to step back. Because that's not even, that's not even in the universal what's actually happened. So what's really going on here. Donna, you have some deep, he has security issues. And if you don't deal with those things, there's business that you're trying to build this world that you believe that is for you to step into.For the rest of your days, that's going to come crashing down because at the root of it is you don't like you. So regardless of someone else steps into that role or not, you have to know. And like you, so I think another layer, another layer of that is this George, when we think aboutbeing able to, to create, I think there are some that to realize a man, like, okay, going out in nature and just like beholding the creativity in nature.The creativity in like the way that, there's just so much variation of color in nature, Malay era, it really humbles you for you to see yo like I'm creative, but man, Whenever I look around me and I see this amazing, like glorious, like I, all of this that's surrounded me put this thing together.So if I don't humble myself, then ultimately I'm going to get in the way of myself and moving forward. GEORGE: Totally. You know, what I love about that analogy is the first thing that popped into my head is like, we would never get pissed. The tomatoes that they don't all look the same or that the leaves aren't all the same exact color, right?Like the imperfection quote unquote that are limited language and communication skills put on nature is the exact metaphor in which we should be living our life, which is that. That is what makes us like that is more, it is man. And, learn this lesson too. Like, I remember consulting a fortune 50 company with a hat on backwards at a blue Mohawk covered in tattoos and sweat pants.And they're like, what are you wearing? I'm like my uniform. What do you think? Come on bro. Right? And like, I wasn't doing it cause I was doing insecure, like getting out of the Marine Corps, but like I wanted to be myself and I didn't want my value to be predicated on like what I looked like or like what was there.But then I also started to learn that there's better ways to do this, but then I realized that the only time I was a moveable is when I wasn't four to find my own foundation. And like, that's really like, and I, I feel cheesy sometimes. And I think about how perfect the light lighthouse analogy works and like what I teach, but then I got back to it and I was like, wow, I'm not tending to my light.Like I didn't check my foundation and I didn't make sure the door's locked. I didn't check the weather report. I didn't know. There was a hurricane coming and I didn't prep for it. I'm like, why aren't I always prep for it? I'm like, why can't I just go in and be like, this is how I see it. And then they'd be like, Oh yeah, I don't like that.My cool, how do you see it? Let's go. Right. And like it's taken years for me to even get somewhat. Close to that. And newsflash newsflash, if it's happening to your business, it's happening to those in your personal life, around you to I'm the best example. My wife nailed me. I told you my wife has like, you know, a lioness when this thing, like, she's the one that hunts. I just pretend to writeI take the credit sometimes, but she's the reason it all works, but like, There was this thing I did. I remember when I started doing work on myself and not like Woohoo stuff, like just being aware of ourselves, like being aware of one analogy. I like Donald is looking at myself like I'm an athlete.And I tell people, I'm like, can you name me one Olympic gold medalist without a coach. And they're like, no, I'm like, do you think every time the coach gives them feedback, they yell at the coach. No coaches helped navigate blind spots. We have this awareness to navigate our own blind spots.And what I found is that if we had a coach that we were paying for, we'd be open to it. But then we think our intuition isn't our best coach. Or that fear or that check engine light that. And so I'll never forget it because I, I had like maybe three colors of crayons in my box.Right. Like I'm not a 64 variety pack like you yet. And but I'm okay with that. But, and like, I remember this conversation, I don't remember the top of my wife's like, I'm telling you it's bothering him. Like, no, it's not, no, it's not. And like, I was angry and defensive and insecure. Right. And then she looked me dead in the eye man.And she's like, you're a purple dinosaur. Come on. And I was like, well, no, I'm not. And she's like, yeah, notice how calm you are. And I was like, Oh she was like, she was like, cause if it landed, you get defensive. And I was like, I literally, I think I spent 48 hours in silence. I was like, I don't want to talk again.I don't want to talk to anybody, but it was, it was such good awareness when we think about it. And I think about. Like the things that you're sharing are so powerful, so powerful when it comes to this, you know, this topic because all of us are creators, right? Like all of us have our unique light signature, right.Or our unique voice. And that voice is a gift to ourselves then to those around us and then to the world. And I think one of the challenges that I see in the world of entrepreneurship is the lack of self awareness and work on self that I want. So culture to get hit with cancel culture. Oh man, like that's where we need to go.Right. And just so everybody knows, like hustle culture comes post industrial revolution, a really good book called guns, grains, germs, and steel. And like where, like the whole thing is we don't live in an assembly line world anymore. We don't have to,we have the ability to do these things, but that also means that we have to use our brains more and we have to re feed those things and give them the space and the time. And so I have a question about voice, but not really a voice. You tell me what the level of this, right? Like I feel like life, like life in general is the pursuit of finding, sharing, and then knowing when not to share your voice.DONALD: YESGEORGE: The pursuit of life for me is finding, sharing, and then learning when not. To share your voice. Right? I had this quote that I wrote that it said leadership is knowing what to say. And when not to say it. And so when you think about that, right, there's a lot of people that are like, God, I, I want to do this. Or I don't know, or I'm a teacher and I have this passion or, you know, I'm kind of doing this, but I'm afraid they're not going to like it. Or I have these 10 ideas. I want to do this painting. Or I wanted to like, how do you take a step through that? Cause you just went through that and you've gone through that a couple of times, but like, how do you see that process of like finding your voice, sharing your voice and then iterating or. Modulating your voice per se, to stay in your lingo. DONALD: So good. So we've been talking a lot here in the house about sacred moments and how you hit it on the head, having something that you could say or something that you could share and having the power to hold it for yourself was something George that I never thought.What's a good thing. I thought that if you had something good to share that you had to share it with someone because after all life is something good, but the more that I've just savory things for myself and had the sacred moments, the more I realized like, wow, like t that was just for me. And you begin to see like, wow man, like that's a really sacred moment.I like to be able to have a thought an idea to be inspiring or some kind of way to learn something and to be able to just chew on that thing and to savor it, man, like, it's like, wow, like that's a really special moment just to have like with myself. And honestly, man, like for me as a creative and being relational and all that man, like so much of my world is, you know, externally focused.And recently I've learned the power of just that. Like I had a really good buddy of mine. I say, Hey, Donald. how are you treating yourself today? You could ask yourself that question at least once a day. How am I treating myself and what was so profound about that for me, George, is that the more that I've stepped into a space of asking myself that question, the more I've seen wow.Exactly what you just said with leadership. Being able to see something coming and to be able to savory, sleep on it. If maybe put a strategy around it to fortify yourself with a four to five, but how, like that really is there's such a sacredness about that. And definitely in the age of social media where we feel like you say, talk, talking about being like, you know what I'm about being a tweetable, right.Where, you know, most recently, like I went back to the Twitter and you know, it's great, man. It's great. But I'm like, wow. So much of this platform is about, it really is about like firing off, likethose thoughts that you have. And I'm like, here we go again. The journey of self control. No, that's not, I don't need to put that public and that's totally okay. it's a really sacred moment that I can just have and enjoy it. So I don't know the questionGEORGE: I'm going to be really transparent, everybody. There's probably five moments in this podcast that I surpassed a sacred moment because in that moment I felt the need.I was like, ah, but like I'm learning, right? Like I'm learning. You know, when to open and when to close. But I think that it's the pursuit of it. Right. I wrote this post couple months ago and I was like, and don't let the premature ejaculation of your fingers get you in trouble. So true. And there's yeah, even in the social media world, there's this fear that like, if I don't say it right now, and if I don't say it right now and that's hustle culture being met with the addiction.Culture that happens on social media. But what I will say near IUL talks about this a lot in his book in distractable or hook, but I loved the way he says he's like, technology is not the problem. Technology is not the problem. I was like, there's two sides to every corn and he's like the way that we use it.But technology is nothing more than a set of processes or structure we put into place because you want to know what a new technology is. Deleting Instagram off your phone. That's the technology. Only checking Facebook at a certain time in your calendar, on your computer is a technology. And so like, I love it.And what he talks about is a lot of people, like it's an addiction and he's like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. It's a distraction. Yes. I'm going to ask yourself as like, what am I distracting myself from And like, that's for me, like when we talk about that alone time, that reflection time, that, that time, that time that we are distracted from is where life happens. because like every business idea that's ever worked, every moment of confidence, clarity, self-love appreciation, acknowledgement that I've ever had in my entire life has come on the other side of sitting through whatever that moment was. And like you think about it, there's you and I, you had that moment when you were on the beach. You're like, am I really on my phone right now? But it was a mom. It was a momentary moment. Like it was literally three seconds and you're done. And then you and I have, at times in our lives, we're sitting there. We feel sad and heart, our heart hurts, right. We acknowledge that our heart hurts. We take a step forward to progress. And then at some point 36 hours later, our heart doesn't hurt. And yet we feel invincible like Robocop. Yeah. I think it's such a powerful thing. So you did, you did answer my voice. I think really what it is, is like, At the end of the day, like if I use the voice analogy, cause you are the voice, it's protecting your voice on all the fronts, right?Like if a singer sings too much, they can't sing anymore. If they strain too much, they'll get vocal cancer. Like if they, if they push outside of their range that they've trained for, if they don't recover enough, but at the same time, all of us have this voice and the voice is like, how do we find it? How do we love it?How do we tend to it? How do we nurture it? How do we share it? And how do we know when to turn it down, turn it up and do it. And I think it's the practice of that. That's so powerful man.So what would you tell people like this? Cause like, you're just somebody that I respected admire. I'm like, I can't blow it. Like I'm like somebody told me I had a radio voice. I'm like, have you heard half of my friends? I was like, I don't know what radio you're listening to them. Like maybe like bootcamp, radio, and then I'm like the Jockos got that so much better than me. Cause Josh was just talks to that.Like, yeah. That like that like deep thing, like, like he's got like a, a deep blade down there and I love it though. But like, when you think about that, like what's the first step to finding or sharing your voice? DONALD: Yeah, so honestly, George, I, I don't know how I would advise anyone else. I can only just share my journey of what has been light too. Change the question a little bit. I don't think it's about finding a voice. I think it's about, it's by creating a voice. And here's why I say thatyou know, I've learned so much about the power of a day and how there's so much density to a day, like every moment that you have to breathe and to be present.And to use your extremities and are like, it's just such a, it's just such a blessing, man. Like, and, and I think that, especially in culture today where either you fly, things are moving really fast or, the sky is falling or whatever, like wherever you choose to put your energy. Right. But there's something to in discovering you have to be present.If, I literally am on a discovery trip,or if I say, Hey, I want to go discover the cure to whatever disease in the Amazon rainforest. I have to be present. Like I'm listening better. I'm paying attention more. I'm looking at where I step and the power of being present, man, like has really been,a lot of us, myself included have punted that.We've given that up in exchange for what we feel like is going to give us satisfaction. And so I think that when we talk about discovering voice, I think that the power in that is you have to be present. And a lot of times being present requires you to, and you hit it on the head a few minutes ago. It requires you to own what you're afraid to be present with what you are distracting yourself from.What pain you're afraid to feel. Maybe even what positive feeling you're trying to recreate that. Honestly, it is a man for you to recreate it. It was a sacred moment that you just need to enjoy. And once it's done. And it's not about trying to find the next high, but it's about how do I be present and how do I enjoy what is, because at the end of the day, man, like, All we have literally like it is now.And if we add up all of our now's my, like, it does become like a day and then a day brought into a week. And so then we look back and it's like, wow, I'm 35 years old. what have I accomplished? And you begin to tell the, and say, you know what, man, like, I need to be more present because if I'm more present, I can be more effective.I can love more deeply. I can serve at a much deeper and higher level and I can really create value that has been like. I don't even believe that I createthis much value. If I'm truly being present, I can run the other people around me better if I'm truly present. And so, yeah, man, I think, I think voice is discovered.I think that if you're in the elementary stage of that process, like I am, I think that as you discover it, You began to see. Okay. Oh, you're like that, that just seems right. not going to say like, it feels right, because I don't think it's all about feelings, but like it's about, like, you just know in your knower.GEORGE: I call it the MHB then the mind, heart and belly, right?DONALD: Yeah. Yeah. You, you, you know it. And so even, and thank you for that moment, because even just then we asked the question. I had like this cool answer, but I was like, no, Donald your truth right now is it's not about, it's not about finding it. Yeah. That's not good. That's not true for you right now. You're in the elementary stages of discovering your voice again. GEORGE: Yeah. Cause the, the, well, the thing that we say create, right, I think it's just, you just gotta keep shooting. Yeah, just got to keep taking the shots and taking the shots and taking the shots and taking the shots. When I used to be a food blogger, I use these analogies all the time, because it's like, if you start making a recipe and it turns out like shit, then you take a bite of it. You will never make that recipe the same way, but you quit cooking.No, you might advocate it and pay somebody else to cook for a while, but eventually you'll cook again. But like that's a lesson in entrepreneurship right there. And I think that's what it is. But what you also talked about as the seasons, right?Like the way that I look at life is there's like seasons there's quarters there's levels. Like in all of them, like, you know, we go through seasons that happen for a week, a month. Some of them happen for a lifetime. Some of them happened for reasons, but like, what you just talked about was like, Whether it's a complete hero's journey or whether it's a cycle, you're like, I havethis voice has been working, but now I'm growing now I'm pushing, I'm finding another octane.I'm turning the volume knob up one more level. That's sustainable. And then I think somebody said this to me a couple of years, there was Tucker max that said this to me. He was in there and on a whiteboard, he was drawing this and he's talking about growth as a human, as an entrepreneur. And we look at it and we see this mountain in front of us.So if you're listening to this, just visualize this mountain in front of us. And we look at it and we peak that mountain. We climb that mountain. We get to the top and we're like, yeah, we made it. And it's when you hit the top of that mountain, that you're for the first time ever able to see the next peak, that's a couple thousand feet higher.Right. And you're like, okay, here we go. New goal. But what we tend to forget is that in order to climb that second peak, you have to fall down the backside of the first mountain. So true There is no. I'm going to leapfrog my way over. Right. And I think that's best whether you use a mountain, whether you use a circle, like you get to a point that becomes your new base, it becomes your new control, right.It becomes your main line or your main track. And then you explore how much deeper you can modulator, how you can go further. And then as you do that, or like a rubber band, when you stretch it, it never goes back to the same size it'll recover, but it's still just a little bit bigger. And I think that that's just such a powerful way to be, man.I don't, I don't know. And by the way, your whole thing, you said this, this was a sacred moment for me. When you said you realized the power of a day,the power of a day, like you better write a book, do a podcast, do something about the power of a day without voiceDONALD: It's the power of a day, like you better write a book, do a podcast, do something about the power of a day without voiceGEORGE: :I would, I would, I would in that for some of your thinking time on the power of a day, man, cause you know, it's funny, it's like I think about it, right?And we think about these peaks and I think you've experienced this a lot. There's a point in my life where I thought that when you went down the backside of the mountain, you had to get like tossed down and flowed down and flipped down and battered down. And I was like, realized you could just ride a bike or get on a sled and have fun on the way down.I think, I think it's so critical to just think about that. Like life happens in between the highlight moments and the highlight moments are a Testament to the work that you put in daily, right. That commitment to self that consistency to the practice, whatever that looks like for you. And it's really funny.It's like the highlight moment is the culmination of the voice being shared. And then you shared it, that performance is over. Yeah. And then you get back to the practice and the craftsmen,DONALD: It's done bro, it's done. And you said something last year that really revolutionized honestly, like, I mean, it was at, at the, you know, the very beginning of this one year anniversary of being full time in business, when you said, relationships beat algorithms.And I began to press into that man and make it, I began to say a wildlife, what. What happens off of this thing? What, what happens absent of the machine? It really is. This, it really is relationships. Like it really is getting to know people at their core. And accepting them, like you said, challenging them, pushing them because you want to see people grow.You want to see them evolvebut man, like there, there are some powerful about that man. And so, yeah, man. So I mean, we can, we can talk about this four for the next three hours. I mean, I, I just kind of want to give you like your flowers because I don't think you realize.like you're talking about likethe way that you've watched my journey.I think it's been so great, man for me to, to know what I know about you, how much you have helped businesses, like create, you know, hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue, but the depth to which you're able to just be George and be. Like you said, like fully you to share the full gamut of your experience while also having like that much external success, man really is a Testament to your character.It's a Testament to what you truly value in life. and so any man that I talked to, like who, who sings praises of his girl and praises of his kids, man, like I'm likethat always tells me something. So I appreciate you, bro. And I appreciate how hard you work at creating, not just value, but how much you work hard atat being.Of being in a good place. And so you said something recently I think you had re you, you read the book call, is, is it breathing?GEORGE: Oh yeah, yeah. Uh, breathe by James Nester.DONALD: And just to see you kind of go through that book and your ID stories, I was like, man, like he, he really is about. We tell them about being present, but the way that you the way that you documented that process of you main challenge with that, like that concept.I just appreciate that. I appreciate that so much. So it was like, so I, I just really see you, George Bryant has a manwho is the total package, but. Who also realizes like, you know, at any point in time, he has a bad day and he's reminded of his fallibility, but he wants to get it right, man.GEORGE: I appreciate it. Heard. Heard received, received and heard. I have a movie recommendation for you, but everybody, uh, and this movie recommendation, uh, Google it, but it's on Apple TV and it's kind of hidden. It's not on a main menu. I don't think it will be. It's actually called chasing the present.The movie is called chasing the present, and I had no idea what we were going to talk about today, but I'm gonna read you One of my favorite quotes from that book. And I'm going to pull it up on my phone, but the movie is called chasing the present. So what I know about this movie, cause I, you know, when I find movies, I like, I go down the deep rabbit hole of a Wikipedia.Yeah. And I'm like, who is that? This guy, how do I find him? And this guy was a very successful entrepreneur and launched a ton of likeVegan restaurants and things like that. And then like the more successful he had that he became the unhappier. He became, he had more anxiety, more panic attacks or depression,boom.And that movie, he interviewed like the leading researcher in duality.And that's where that, who am I question came up.And so it got me, but this one, quote, this one quote, cause we talked about ego. And we talked about masks? Ready for this? This is serendipitous. Here we go.The being does not suffer. The being is in grace, bliss, existence, and consciousness and irritating love and light. The one suffering is the mask desperate from being torn apart, losing control of the game. The broken mask is the main tool of the ego GEORGE: And I was like hit pause, bro. Literally like there's days I struggled with presence because I am just like everybody else.And I'm fallible where I'm like, Oh, it's more fun to play a game on my phone or go read it, Instagram comment or respond. I literally watched that scene in that movie. I put my phone down, I hit pause and I stared at my ceiling for 45 minutes. And it was like the happiest 45 minutes of my life. Wow. And like my wife and my kids were out just there and it was like, I could feel love in my body.I could feel warmth in my chest. I could feel like every ounce of me and like, I was like, that's what we get to do every day. And then we get to find that, then we get to give it away. We get to find it, we get to give it away. Um, but yeah, and then the other one that I appreciated from that movie, uh, another quote that I wrote down was job of the seeker is to stabilize consciousness at the present moment.And I was just like, okay, I'm good. I got enough. Woo tweetables in my brain to go. But I think about like everything that we talked about today, like who you are as a husband, who you are as a father, who you are as a creative, the way that you give your gift to the world, what you're doing is you are using your gifts to redefine the edges of who you are learning, fortifying it and practicing, giving away the next levelDONALD: That's very well said. And I think as you were talking, I was like, man that's so like applicable to what? To what I do it you'd like voiceover. So. Am I maybe like second year of doing VO, my brain was like, babe, like, I really think you have benefit from voiceover coaching. And I'm like, I didn't even, I didn't even know it was there.Like, I know you have voice coaches, but someone like to literally like walk me through the ins and outs of reading scripts, what a point is.my annunciation how to lean into my true voice. Like, I'd be the radio guy. Cause I think that's what people want to hear, but it's like Donald. Yeah. Like literally like, like use the full range of your voice.And I remember Rodney Saulsberry,who was the voice ofof twigs and Zatarain's for decades was my voiceover coach. And we will have these virtual sessions. I'll be here in central Florida. He be in California and we would just read through scripts, George. And I remember he would say Donald slow down, you're skipping over words.You're not putting emphasis on the words. You're not paying attention, like to the words you need to hit. The light is I dislike the mind of George podcast. You know, like, like when you say the, like you need to like sound grant, this is an introduction I knew you can put that emphasis on whatever word you want to.And that taught me, man wow. And what I do in narration or, you know, or bringing up emotion, like someone taught me recently, you know, here in the last couple of years, that theater of the mind. So if I'm doing like a radio station ID where literally is like if we were doing something for you, It will be something like the Monta, George podcast, something like that, and is like, okay, if I literally just kept that vocal and I send it to you dry without any sound effects without any music, it would probably fall flat.And it would probably sound like, like yelling. But if I incorporated it sound effects the right way, if I put a little bit of reverb or not, or if I put like, I'm using bed like that really accentuated what I was saying. It really evokes the kind of emotion that I'm seeking to like create like in your mind.And when you said I felt love, what's so powerful about being a creative as this is every single day we have the power to. Influence people and influence their feelings and their minds. And as you know, from a copywriting perspective, there are certain words that we can use to evokes our kinds of emotions to like, back to what we were saying earlier.But when I think about the power of voice Marianne, there's something about even like words and what you tell yourself. And I rememberrecently going through counseling and my counsel's like, Hey Donald, I feel like you really have an issue of saying that things are okay whenever they're not okay.Andthat kind of goes back to your childhood. And I was like, okay, tell me more about that. And we started going through this process of our world. I was like, wow. As a kid, there was certain things that happen where I said to myself, I have to be okay, because that makes everything around me. Okay.Yeah. And as a man, 35 years old in the last, literally six months, I realized like, wow, everything around me does not have to be okay. And sometimes. I'm not okay of that. You know what? I'm not okay. But there's a reason that things will not. Okay. So how do we figure out how to make them better or. Is it even necessary to make it better?Don't need to sit in this pain. Don't need to be present and it's fine to really feel this Al of that is powerful, man. That's so powerful. And so man, if it's like reading scripts or if it's like seeing the power of a moment or a day, man light is so beautiful that we literally get a chance to create.Our reality based on what we tell ourselves and based on what we say to others may haveGEORGE: I'm going to highlight that I'm going to highlight that cause that's where we're going to, we got to end on that note. That is amazing. We create our reality based on what we tell ourselves and tell other people.Yeah. I just like, I think that's so powerful. Like you are an artist that gives life to the word though. Like you give meaning. To the word though. And of, and just conjunctions that people forget about, right? Like the level of presence, like you said that to me, and I was like, God, I skipped over so many words. I skipped on so many of those precious moments. Right? Those, what do you call them? The sacred moments, right? I was like, ah, like when I say the. I was like, what if I pause and have a sacred moment right there? Like where? And like some of the best leadership and coaching I've ever gotten in my life, it's just slow down.And I realized that I talk fast and I'm still talking fast as I'm developing my voice. And I know it's a season because there's times where I'm going to be reflective and I'm going to ask questions. And what I've fallen in love with is that this is my journey. And I'm okay with the fact that I sound like the road runner and most people have listened to a podcast on 0.7.Like most people, like I listen at 1.5, but George was, I've listened to her and like 0.7, I'm like guidance. I know Larry, if that's what you're hearing, you can imagine the speed at which it's going through my conscious, right? Yeah. Yeah, totally. I always wanted to be like a freestyle rapper, but I don't want to study words that well, Yeah.So I follow like Harry Mac and a few other ones. Oh goodness. That gets my say that gets me happy. But Donald, would you do me a favor? I want it in your voice. Can you tell everybody the best place to find you on Instagram, your website, and then a closing words are yours, man. Anything you want to leave with people at the end of the show?DONALD: So Donald the voice everywhere and everything, Instagram or Donald, the voice Donald the voice.com.Shoot me an email @helloordownloadthevoice.com. If you're more of an email person and then Facebook, I believe I'm Donald The voice of Me. George is going to help me out with that.I am not doing well on my Facebook engagement, but Instagram is definitely where I hang out the most. So parting words would be would be. That there's so much power in presence. And however that hits youI know how it's hitting me, but however that, that hits you, man,take it in, enjoy it and do something with it.So there's a lot of power in presence. And so my voice just happens to be, you know, used in many ways, but man, if I don't pay attention to what I'm reading the intent of the author or the intent of the person who had that concept is lost. If I don't pay attention. So. That's good, man. That just came to me.GOERGE: That pair that with the power of a day. And I think you might got something to unpack there. So everybody I'm not going to dissolve any of that or diluted at all. That is potent and powerful. Listen to it again. Hit pause. Go hit up Donald. I mean it follow us Instagram. I do send them a D
