Nutrition has vast effects on individual and population health—impacting obesity rates, chronic conditions, and quality of life. Yet despite its proven, wide-reaching effects, nutrition remains largely overlooked as a social determinant of health. Dr. Livia Santiago-Rosado, MD, Commissioner of the Dutchess County (NY) Department of Behavioral and Community Health, joins Dr. Enrique Enguidanos to discuss this important topic and how communities can work together to make small tweaks and big impacts. Bio:Dr. Santiago-Rosado has been Commissioner of the Dutchess County Department of Behavioral Health since her appointment in December 2021. Following completion of a BA in Biological Anthropology summa cum laude from Harvard University, she attended medical school at Columbia University. Having completed residency training at Mount Sinai and Elmhurst Hospitals in New York City, has practiced Emergency Medicine in New York for over two decades, working in emergency departments (EDs) in diverse settings including urban, suburban, rural, public and private. She holds an academic appointment as Distinguished Visiting Professor at New York Medical College and Adjunct Associate Professor at the Touro School of Osteopathic Medicine.Dr. Santiago has dedicated her career to working with and enhancing the care of underserved populations. Prior to moving to Dutchess County, she spent 15 years as a clinical leader in New York City's public hospital system, Health + Hospitals (H+H), where she helped found a novel ED Care Management program for highly vulnerable patients and the first ED-based observation unit in H+H. Prior to her current appointment, Dr. Santiago was the Medical Director and inaugural Chair of Emergency Medicine at Vassar Brothers Medical Center in Poughkeepsie, NY. Dr. Santiago is an active member of the New York State Association of County Health Officials (NYSACHO) and sits on its Emerging Issues committee. She also currently serves as a Councilor representing New York at the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) and has served two terms on the Board of Directors for the New York Chapter of ACEP. She also serves on ACEP practice committees at both the State and national levels. Throughout her career, she has led and participated in policy development, education, informatics and data analytics, quality improvement, change management, and research in Emergency Medicine, social determinants, and population health at the local, state, and national levels. Lastly, since local health commissioners in New York are required to have a master's degree in public health (or related field) in addition to a medical doctorate, she is currently enrolled in the MPH program at the University at Albany.

With over a decade in the real estate industry – acquiring, flipping, developing and financing over $500 million worth in real estate – Ruben has quickly become a renowned real estate expert, speaker, and guide for many professionals in the industry. The most successful time in Ruben's career was during the 2009 financial crisis; during this time, he bought, fixed, and sold distressed properties, which showed his determination in both bullish and bearish markets.

Ruben originally, however, started as a hard-working eight-year-old boy distributing flyers on the streets of New York, and to this day still takes that work ethic with him everywhere he goes.

This week I sit down with the co-author of "THE POWER OF AWE: Overcome Burnout & Anxiety, Ease Chronic Pain, Find Clarity & Purpose—In Less Than 1 Minute Per Day" Jake Eagle. Jake Eagle co-wrote this book with Michael Amster. The A.W.E. Method is a five-to fifteen second, three step process that transports you into a heightened state of consciousness and wonderment that creates changes to the mind and body, while improving health and wellness. Jake and I discuss the research studies that were built around this methodology and how it changed the participants who were frontline health care workers during one of the hardest moments in recent history--the Covid-19 pandemic. Jakes also shares with the audience, how using the A.W.E. method can reduce a persons' experience of loneliness, burnout, and shift consciousness. We also discuss the benefits of healing using the A.W.E method to help our nervous system feel safe, so long term healing and integration can occur. Jake is a psychotherapist, mindfulness instructor and cofounder of Live Conscious. Michael is a physician and faulty member at the Touro School of Medicine.

Michael is going to explain the power of the A.W.E method including the science that backs it up, the three levels of consciousness, and how to achieve powerful results for both our physical and mental health in under 1 minute a day.A.W.E's initiationAt the height of the pandemic, two trial groups embarked on a study through UC Berkeley to test a new method for “micro-dosing mindfulness.” One group was comprised of frontline healthcare workers; the other consisted of patients at a local medical center, as well as any of their friends and family who wished to participate. Almost immediately, both groups reported significant improvement in symptoms of stress, anxiety, depression, and chronic pain—results that bore out over the course of the study and beyond.

Real estate debt funds have grown in popularity since the 2008 financial crisis offering smaller investors an alternative source of funding apart from banks with more stringent loan requirements. Not only have debt funds risen in popularity among borrowers but they have also become a favored form of investment for investors with the steady returns that they provide. But, how does one start a private debt fund?Ruben Izgelov of We Lend, LLC enlightens us about real estate debt funds in today's episode. With decades of experience in real estate investing, Ruben saw the need to step up the private lending space and decided to put up his own private lending platform. Achieving major success funding a thousand loans worth $400 million in just a few years, Ruben has now shifted to debt funds. Find out what prompted the shift, what makes debt funds different from private lending, and why investors should take notice.Key Points From This Episode: How Ruben was introduced to real estate at the age of 10.How his family became a private lender for real estate developers and flippers.Dropping out of junior high school, how did Ruben manage to buy and flip houses?Why did Ruben eventually decide to go back to school?How has Ruben started and grown their private lending business?How does the debt fund operate differently from the loans they offer?Ruben compares the economic and market conditions of 2008 with that of today and how he plans to navigate uncertain periods.With the benefit of hindsight, what would Ruben do differently in his real estate career?Ruben's predictions on the economy for the next six to twelve months and how he prepares for a downturn.How does Ruben find top talent and source new investors?The metrics that Ruben tracks and habits that have produced the highest return for him.The biggest contributor to Ruben's success, his way of giving back, and his contact information.Tweetables:“One lesson that I would take back from my early real estate career is to learn how to bring investors together.”"You can hit similar returns being a lender as you could being a landlord. The only difference is the fact that you don't have to work as hard.""Just like there's a lot to learn in buying real estate, there's a lot to learn in lending against real estate."Links Mentioned in Today's Episode:Ruben Izgelov on LinkedInWe Lend, LLC Nationwide Private LendingSend an email to RubenWe Lend on LinkedInWe Lend on TwitterAbout Ruben IzgelovWith over a decade in the real estate industry – acquiring, flipping, developing, and financing over $500 million worth in real estate – Ruben has quickly become a renowned real estate expert, speaker, and guide for many professionals in the industry.

Today on Unstoppable REI Wealth I am joined by Ruben Izgelov.Ruben had over a decade in the real estate industry – acquiring, flipping, developing and financing over $500 million worth in real estate – Ruben has quickly become a renowned real estate expert, speaker, and guide for many professionals in the industry. Ruben originally, started as a hard-working eight-year-old boy distributing flyers on the streets of New York, and to this day still takes that work ethic with him everywhere he goes. He is a graduate of St. Johns University and Touro School of Law, where he earned a BS in legal studies and his JD, finishing cum laude and magna cum laude.We Lend is a private money lender focused on servicing real estate investors by providing quick and low-cost capital on their investment properties. We Lend's approach to lending is centered around the investor, therefore allowing the investor to focus more on their investment and less on the loan process. We Lend was founded by a group of real estate investors, whose emphasis was on acquiring and improving distressed properties. So, whether or not you are an experienced real estate investor – We Lend's team has the qualifications to exceed expectations and can assist in the expansion of your real estate portfolio.Key Takeaways From Today's Episode:[00:03:25] Eventually I was introduced to real estate, right around 13, 14 years old. One of my cousins who was actually a flipper at the time, doing it the old school way door knocking on doors and trying to convince sellers to sell their property to him and he had a hard time with people opening doors. So, he asked me as a 13 year old, he's like, you know what? You're young, you're cute. You know, I think people would open the door for you. Why don't you come and join me and help me. So that's exactly what we did for the summer.[00:07:52] I started flipping, and my go-to guide my mentor to this day. He's my mentor was my hard money lender. Don't get me wrong. He was charging me an arm and a leg. I think I was paying anywhere between 14 to 15% with two and a half to three points at the time. But it was well worth. It, it was worth every single penny for me, but he was old school. He's still around. God bless him. But he was old school, no emails, you know, only phone calls, notes. Only fax machines and we thought that we can definitely change the bar market and definitely improve on it.[00:14:30] So as private lenders, our focus is always the asset, right? We want to make sure that, you know, the borrower, that the property is profitable when they're buying the property and flipping it we want to make sure that the property is vacant or not. Doesn't really matter, but we just want to have that those numbers in mind and have those assumptions that are. So our real focus is the asset in the beginning, but then also we want to make sure that the borrower has a track record. And if they don't, that's fine.[00:14:55] 620 credit for us is excellent credit we want to make sure that the borrower has enough liquidity to not only buy the property, but also start the renovation because when we fund the project to the leverage point, I don't think we even touched on that. And depending on the borrower's experience, we can go up to 90% of the purchase and a hundred percent of the construction cost that huge.Thank you all for listening and I will see you on the next episode.
