Tactivate brings practices and experts from these spheres with these capabilities to new venture launch and consultancy services. From the rapid activation of a project in a disaster-stricken environment or a neighborhood in an emerging market, our team's design process, methodologies, and approach to rapid community building and project execution have been applied to a diverse range of challenges and ventures.Disaster ReadinessWhile not conducting reactive disaster response operations, Tactivate focuses on cultivating “whole community readiness” through entrepreneurial initiatives intended to socialize the concept, skills, technology, and mindset of proactive emergency preparedness.Tactivate works with local businesses, communities, and municipalities to decrease the need for, and reliance on external aid in times of emergency. For every $1 spent on proactive readiness $6 are saved on recovery spend. We help implement the solutions and systems to make your group proactive and ready instead of reactive and dependent in times of need.LinksJesse LevinWeb - https://www.tactivate.com/Twitter - https://twitter.com/ArcherGroupInvLinkedIn -https://www.linkedin.com/in/jesse-levin/Videos - https://vimeo.com/398885630Todd De VoeWebsite - https://toddtdevoe.com/Website- www.crisis-cafe.comSpeak N Spark-https://bit.ly/3sTVUfrLinkedIn - https://bit.ly/3sVHL1gEM WeeklyWebsite - https://bit.ly/3jj5ItlTwitter - https://bit.ly/31z8MeXFacebook - https://bit.ly/3dMlbRPLinkedIn - https://bit.ly/34mXyfzYouTube - https://bit.ly/2FQDhWdSister ShowsEM StudentWeb - https://bit.ly/2Hw0sFxTwitter - https://bit.ly/31z8MeXFacebook - https://bit.ly/3dMlbRPLinkedIn - https://bit.ly/34mXyfzYouTube - https://bit.ly/2FQDhWdThe Business Continuity ShowTwitter - https://bit.ly/3ojEIO2Facebook - https://bit.ly/2Tjqv5HLinkedIn - https://bit.ly/34mXyfzYouTube - https://bit.ly/3mePJyGSponsorsDisaster Tech https://www.disastertech.com/NDEM Expo https://www.ndemevent.com/en-us.htmlIf you would like to become a sponsor or advertiserCall Sitch Radio (714) 643-2500 X 1

Milestone Mind Podcast: Mindfulness | Leadership | Mental Resiliency | Focus
What if we were to totally flip marketing on its head, and develop a bottom-up, organic approach to launching businesses, or better yet, helping local populations overcome acute disasters? That's exactly what Jesse Levin has developed with his 'expeditionary entrepreneurialism' approach, and the results are fascinating. This is a must listen if you're thinking about starting a new venture, and hopefully, this gives you hope that you don't need to become an Instagram or Facebook selfie star in order to do so.Support the show (https://www.milestonemind.com/donation)
Mark Divine opened SEAL Fit, a Navy SEAL preparation center, in response to the stark proposition candidates faced: Ninety percent will fail if left to their own devices. Fortunately Divine has the key for bolstering their mental toughness and dramatically increasing their odds for success. He took the same journey himself after upheaving a stable but miserable career as a CPA. What he found along the way defies stereotypes. According to Divine, philosophies similar to those of gentle spirits such as the Dalai Lama and Eckhart Tolle are a more effective way to grit than those of the average drill sergeant.Watch the video episode at http://spartanuppodcast.com Lessons:1. The human spirit soars when it's challenged.2. Life is made up of the small choices you make from moment to moment, rarely the big ones.3. The essence of mental toughness is to notice when you unconsciously make the wrong choices.4. The most important lesson for mental toughness is to know your "why."Panel Notes:Joe Desena: He looks exactly like the Navy Seal in the movie Captain Phillips that helps take out the pirates. I am not so sure it wasn't him. Great guy, great friend that was a Seal and wrote to talk about it, but not in a way that upsets the military. He writes to help all of us develop an unbeatable mind.Col. Nye: SEAL Fit Sauna. Always know your why. Must be disciplined. Inspirational fitness guru and bona fide hero. Holistic view of fitness, body, mind and spirit. He is there to teach resilience and toughness.Sefra Alexandra: “SealFit develops warriors of all walks of life in elite-level fitness, awareness, durability and longevity. We thrive on cultivating the “Kokoro” (warrior) spirit in our clients, helping them be unbeatable in life.”We as a culture have much to learn from the Navy SEALS and Special Operations/ veterans community at large in terms of physicality, strategy and endurance. My twin brother runs a similar venture- Tactivate - to bridge the gap between the skill sets of special operations x entrepreneurship.SEALFIT Values:Loyalty – to our family and our teamService – to others before selfHonor and integrity – in public as well as in privateLeadership and followership – we must be good at both to be effective at anythingResponsibility – we take it for both our actions and those of our teammatesDiscipline – the only easy day was yesterdayInnovation – adapt, improvise and overcomeJohnny Waite: This one is all about how to teach grit. A former Navy Seal, who now operates SealFit; he knows what it takes to develop physical and mental toughness.
