312: „Du darfst dich fühlen – und dich halten.“

Nicht jedes KI-Tool zählt: Was wirklich Business Impact hat   In diesem kurzen, aber prägnanten Impuls teilt Torsten eine zentrale Beobachtung aus dem aktuellen KI-Markt: Der Fokus vieler Unternehmer liegt zu sehr auf den neuesten Tools – anstatt auf deren tatsächlichen Nutzen. Es geht nicht darum, jedem Hype hinterherzulaufen, sondern zu verstehen, welche Technologien echte Wirkung entfalten. Michael Schmid auf LinkedIn: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelschmid-ki/   Innovationen ohne Wirkung? Der KI-Markt im Wandel ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini oder Mistral – die Innovationswelle rollt. Doch die entscheidende Frage bleibt: Was davon brauchst du wirklich? Nur weil ein Tool neu ist oder gerade „gehyped“ wird, heißt das nicht, dass es für dein Business relevant ist. Viele der aktuellen Releases bieten keinen echten Anwendungsfall, der dein Geschäftsmodell beeinflusst, wenn das Tool morgen nicht mehr verfügbar wäre.   Businesskritische KI statt Tool-Spielerei Ein Beispiel: Manus AI. Trotz medialer Aufmerksamkeit fehlt hier für viele Anwender ein klarer Business Case. Wirklich entscheidend ist, ob ein KI-Werkzeug einen kritischen Prozess unterstützt – so sehr, dass seine Abwesenheit ein Problem darstellen würde. Nur dann spricht man von Impact. Genau das ist der Maßstab, an dem du Tools prüfen solltest.   Von Prinzipien statt Plattformen lernen Statt jedes neue Feature zu testen, geht es bei DIE KOERTINGS darum, die Mechanismen hinter der Technologie zu verstehen. Warum? Weil Prinzipien über Plattformen stehen. Wer weiß, wie KI funktioniert, kann sie flexibel einsetzen – unabhängig davon, ob das Tool nun ChatGPT, Claude oder etwas völlig Neues ist.   KI in den Alltag bringen – mit Wirkung Der wahre Fortschritt liegt in der Integration kleiner, wirksamer KI-Prozesse in deinen Alltag. Nicht spektakulär, aber effektiv. E-Mails automatisieren, Recherchen beschleunigen, Content vorbereiten – genau hier beginnt der messbare Mehrwert. Unternehmen, die das verstanden haben, werden nachhaltiger profitieren als jene, die auf jedes neue Tool aufspringen.   Fazit Nicht jedes Tool ist ein Gamechanger – aber jedes KI-Element, das echte Arbeit abnimmt, hat seinen Wert. Entscheidend ist, ob du damit deine Abläufe verbessern, Zeit sparen oder Qualität steigern kannst. Setz auf Tiefe statt Breite, Wirkung statt Wow-Effekt – und finde heraus, wo KI für dich geschäftskritisch wird.     Noch mehr von den Koertings ...  Das KI-Café ... jede Woche Mittwoch (>350 Teilnehmer) von 08:30 bis 10:00 Uhr ... online via Zoom .. kostenlos und nicht umsonstJede Woche Mittwoch um 08:30 Uhr öffnet das KI-Café seine Online-Pforten ... wir lösen KI-Anwendungsfälle live auf der Bühne ... moderieren Expertenpanel zu speziellen Themen (bspw.

Persuasion in transformational leadership is not about eloquent and stirring speeches like  Martin Luther King's "I Have A Dream" speech.Persuasion in transformational leadership is about positive influence, not manipulation. In its purest form persuasion is the shaping with full integrity the thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and behaviours of others. Let's examine in more detail....

Abigail Carter's husband Arron Dack was attending a trade show at the Windows of the World restaurant at the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. He was the senior vice president and the director of global sales and alliances for Encompys. He never came come. She wrote The Alchemy of Loss: A Young Widow's Transformation, initially as a form of catharsis. It has aided in the healing process for other widowed people. The book was chosen by The Globe and Mail as one of the 100 Most Notable Books of 2008 and was long-listed for the B.C. Award for Canadian Non-Fiction, Canada's largest Non-Fiction prize. Today she hosts retreats at her home in southwest France, Chateau de Borie. Her retreats and workshops are dedicated to providing a supportive environment where you can cultivate self-awareness, and resilience, and embrace transformation in all its forms.

“That transformation was key to my next step as an artist, to knowing that's what acting is. It isn't just posing; it isn't just being a version of yourself in a way that was free. Performing wasn't just performing; it was transforming. I think that artists find that in many different ways, and as actors, there are many ways into that.I would encourage you, as I do if you're an actor, to know your own equipment, know your own psychology, and use the great teachers that are synthesized in my favorite teacher's book, Moss, who I studied with later. There is a book called Intent to Live that distills down Uta Hagen, Stella Adler, Bobby Lewis, and Stanislavski. The great teachers at the Group Theatre believed that the method needed to be altered to be constructive rather than destructive to artists.David Milch's mind is so singular because he uses language in a way that defines character. That's what all good writers do: use language to get to the heart of something. He would use malapropisms to make up words, and Milch loved playing with that. As someone who played the love interest of such a unique character as Andy Sipowicz, I found it fascinating.Through Sylvia and David Milch's understanding, his wife humanized him. Sipowicz was portrayed as an addict, a very flawed human who had many addictions. David Milch is now suffering from Alzheimer's, so we won't get his words again. However, the words that he has to offer are timeless because he studied Robert Penn Warren and had many mentors throughout his vast literary education. That is key. I love speaking Noël Coward's words. As a bon vivant, he wrote musically, to charm us and amuse us. So going and reading Noël Coward is important for actors to learn those cadences and the musicality of a certain era. Of course, Shakespeare comes to mind. I also think of the female playwrights who delight me now, whether it's Caryl Churchill. She has that singular mind and plays with gender so well, challenging gender norms. Seeing ‘Cloud Nine' when I was in college blew my mind open because men were playing women and women were playing men. Of course, Shakespeare was doing it too, but her work felt more intimate; it was in a small theater. That's another thing I encourage actors and audiences to do: go see things in small theaters. See it up close because that will excite you and help you learn the craft.”Sharon Lawrence is an acclaimed actress best known for her Emmy-nominated, SAG Award-winning role as ADA Sylvia Costas on NYPD Blue. She has delivered memorable performances in Desperate Housewives, Monk, Law & Order: SVU, Criminal Minds, Shameless, and Queen Sugar.

In this episode, I introduce you to Amanda A. who is married with three kids. Amanda found herself with compounding Golden Windows which created a little chaos in her life. She had just started back to work, went to transfer files to her dropbox and stumbled upon an old bundle she'd downloaded years prior - the Ultimate Bundle. It was exactly what she needed and her “relationship” with Organize 365® took off from there. Amanda had tried a lot of other organizational systems but none of them seemed to be the solution. When Amanda came across the module about organizing your schedule is when she felt relief.  Golden windows Amanda was experiencing were her turning 40, moving to IL., she had a baby, took care of her mom her mom, covid hit. That was the two years leading up to 2021. In 2021, August she went back to work after 4 years, in Nov. her son needed medical help, and in Dec. of 2021 she was able to get a handle of it all that fateful day when she came across the module to organize her schedule. Amanda has ADHD and while she understands getting your life under control starting with the Sunday Basket® consistently for 6 weeks, that wasn't her.  We had such a great productive conversation about using the space in your home for the phase of life you are in. Amanda is using her dining room as her office. It's where everything gets processed anyway so why not? I shared how “Grayson's Room” upstairs has changed purpose over the years and as recently as a few weeks ago. When I found out Abby was pregnant I re-assessed how we need to be using that space. That's exactly what Amanda did with her dining room and talking through it, may be Christmas Central too this December.  Amanda shared about their steak drawer. They made a drawer in their kitchen functional for when her husband or son want to make steak, which is often! Once you decide how you want to use a space, think of any obstacles you may have and problem solve. A cabinet can be used the same as a drawer or vice versa. They purchased their home from a couple who had recently became empty nesters. There were some features they would never use. One was when the beverage cooler went out. She reimagined the space with a mini fridge that now houses school lunch items. Amanda has a lot of Organize 365r products, including The Productive Home solution. She was paralyzed where to start because the members were on a different day that day 1. Amanda was skeptical that a storage space or or laundry room would stay organized. These are the spaces you start with because they stay organized the longest. So she started in their laundry room. Sure enough…she cleaned out the winter stuff, gave items homes, and to her disbelief, it stayed organized!  Amanda has more perspective by pausing and thinking about how she needs to do stuff. She likes to flit around in the programs and that suits her ADHD but compounds to be organized. And she wishes she'd known that no one is being as critical as she is about her home. She has such bad negative self talk about the state of her home at one time. But now,  Amanda's advice is, “You can have as many redos or day 1's as you need. When starting the Productive Home Solution, you can start where you want. And if you need to restart, do that! Planning day is like that for me every few months. Time to start over.”    EPISODE RESOURCES: The Sunday Basket® The Paper Solution® The Productive Home Solution® Sign Up for the Organize 365® Newsletter  On the Wednesday podcast, I get to talk with members of the Organize 365­® community as they share the challenges, progress, missteps and triumphs along their organizing journey. I am grateful that you are reaching out to share with me and with this community. You can see and hear transformation in action.

In a culture obsessed with self-discovery, the pursuit of "finding yourself" often leads to more confusion than clarity. Preston Morrison, Senior Pastor of Pillar Church and host of The Leader's Cut, challenges this narrative by exposing the misconceptions that keep us spiritually immature. He delves into how pride creates distance and separation, the pain inherent in midlife transitions, and the transformative power of embracing life's wilderness seasons.

In this episode, Dr. Chaffee is joined by Dr. Sarah, a returning guest who made a huge impact when she first shared her powerful story of overcoming multiple sclerosis with the help of the carnivore diet. This time, they go even deeper — talking about what's changed since her first appearance, how she continues to manage her health, and what she's learned along the way. It's an honest, insightful, and hopeful conversation about living with MS, the role of diet in long-term healing, and what it really takes to rebuild your life when conventional medicine falls short. If you or someone you love is dealing with a chronic illness — or if you're just looking for real stories of recovery, resilience, and practical advice — this episode is well worth your time.

What is YOUR message from the Divine Feminine for June? I chose three Divine Feminine oracle card decks and asked this very question just for YOU! It amazes me how this process works! I picked one card from each deck and discovered a beautiful message for you for this sacred month of June. In this episode, I share the three different Divine Feminine oracle card messages for you, and weave together the THEME for this month!  Each card gives us more insight into the energy of the month and deepens our understanding of the message.   Which decks did I choose? The Goddess Guidance cards by Doreen Virtue (no longer available for purchase), The Divine Feminine Oracle by Meggan Watterson, and the Sacred Traveler Oracle Cards by Denise Linn. For links to these decks, see the show notes.   Key Learnings: 1) As we approach the Solstice, we are moving towards a pinnacle vibration. There is a building energy this month, and with that energy comes a great opportunity for change! That is reflected in the first card, the Butterfly Maiden, from the Goddess Guidance Oracle deck by Doreen Virtue. The theme is Transformation! 2) The second card is from the Divine Feminine Oracle:  Isis – the Goddess of Magic! By connecting with your sexual/sensual energy, you release your innate magical power. Let your body guide you this month on the path of transformation! 3) The last card is from the Sacred Traveler deck and is Passion & Pleasure! (You can't make this stuff up!) By allowing yourself to connect with your sensual self, honoring your body, you will experience more passion and pleasure. The image is a woman dancing around a fire with a tambourine. This is an ancient image of a woman doing a sacred ritual dance to manifest her heart's desire.   “The spiritual theme for June is Transformation through pleasure and enjoyment.

8 Rituals of The Heart 'ask dorothy' ~ VIDEO EPISODE The WISDOM podcast  Season 5  Episode 59   Rituals are a set of actions or words performed in the same or similar way every time. They cultivate what is experienced as ceremony, celebration or sacred observance. Rituals are prophetic and deeply significant for they become the ways of being that you live. ~ Hridaya is the place where one experiences their true self.

"We're not here for life to be easy. We define ourselves by our challenges.” What if the life you're living isn't broken, but simply out of alignment with how you were designed to live? In today's episode of SoulTalk, I dive deep with the brilliant Eric Edmeades. He's a visionary, entrepreneur, founder of WildFit, and one of the most dynamic voices in the personal growth and health space.  We talk about the real reason most people struggle to change, why diets fail, and how lasting transformation comes down to one thing: identity. Eric breaks down the science of behavior change, the trap of willpower, and why the key to your future is shifting who you believe you are. He also shares powerful principles behind the WildFit approach, how our modern lifestyle clashes with our evolutionary design, and why our deepest suffering often comes not from struggle, but from the absence of challenge. Tune in and learn why evolution holds the secret to your well-being, and how to reclaim your energy, your clarity, and your power. If you've been craving real change, this conversation will light the way. Timestamps:  (00:02:42) - Eric's early life and entrepreneurial roots.

(00:19:50) - Early signs of coaching and pattern recognition in relationships. (00:22:50) - The surprising origin of WildFit. (00:28:30) - Principles of WildFit: Evolution, not fads. (00:31:40) - Why food is not medicine. (00:33:50) - Exercise as integrated living, not gym obligation. (00:35:40) - The truth about veganism from an evolutionary lens. (00:40:00) - Language patterns, influence vs. manipulation. (00:48:00) - Eric's take on modern anxiety and the comforts of today.       Some Questions I Ask What put you on the personal growth path? How do you shift your identity in a lasting way? How do we know what identity to adopt? What are the principles behind WildFit? What's your take on veganism from an evolutionary standpoint? What are language patterns, and how do they shape outcomes? What do you see happening in the world today? In This Episode, You Will Learn:  Why intuition isn't mystical or magical, and how it works like a sense you can train. How  past trauma can unlock powerful intuitive insight.

Send us a textWhat happens when you mix a heartbreak, a backpack, and a poet with abs and emotional depth? You get this juicy convo. In today's episode, Andrea Knoche cozies up with the wildly insightful (and low-key dreamy) Adam Roa—artist, poet, coach, and creator of The Art of Breaking Up.From stable to nomadic, Adam spills all about his bold leap into a new life post-breakup, what it really means to “find yourself,” and how radical honesty can be the sexiest form of self-growth. They get into the good stuff: love vs. codependency, love languages decoded, and the social media minefield we all tiptoe through in modern relationships.And because things can't get too serious without a little spice... they end with a cheeky round of Would You Rather that reveals way more than either of them expected.

Send me a text! I'd love to know what you're thinking!Markus Watson and Tod Bolsinger unpack the fascinating connection between the Latin roots of “prayer” and “precarious”—suggesting that it's often in our most uncertain moments that we're drawn into deeper dependence on God. Together, they explore how precarious situations not only shape our leadership but also form and mature our prayer lives. You'll also hear practical wisdom on leading others in prayer through times of change and how discernment, rather than just asking God to bless our plans, is central to a healthy approach to leadership.Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson discuss this quote from Jeff Hoffmeyer in Ep. 246: Have We Forgotten to Pray?:"The Latin word for prayer is the same root for ‘precarious'. So, I think when we're in a precarious situation, God's desire is that we'll be driven to dependence on prayer."THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:Leaders cultivate their prayer lives in the midst of precarious situations.Leaders experience spiritual formation when they become aware of their dependence on God.Leaders guide their congregations into discernment by seeking God's voice together.Leaders model a deep prayer life by honestly acknowledging their limitations.Leaders resist making plans independently and instead invite God to direct their path.Click HERE to get my FREE online course, BECOMING LEADERS OF SHALOM.

Episode 60: Hey sis!

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. And today's shout-out goes to Cary Lemasters from Wellsville, OH. Cary, thank you for standing with us through Project23. Your support helps deliver the Word where it's needed most. This one's for you. Our text today is Mark 5:14-20: The herdsmen fled and told it in the city and in the country. And people came to see what it was that had happened. And they came to Jesus and saw the demon-possessed man, the one who had had the legion, sitting there, clothed and in his right mind, and they were afraid. And those who had seen it described to them what had happened to the demon-possessed man and to the pigs. And they began to beg Jesus to depart from their region. As he was getting into the boat, the man who had been possessed with demons begged him that he might be with him. And he did not permit him but said to him, “Go home to your friends and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you.” And he went away and began to proclaim in the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him, and everyone marveled. — Mark 5:14-20 The people come running because they've heard what happened and want to see it for themselves. And what they see shocks them. The same man who once lived naked in the tombs. The man who cried out night and day. The one who broke shackles and couldn't be subdued is now sitting. Clothed. Calm. In his right mind. It's such a radical transformation the crowd doesn't celebrate—they tremble in fear. The power of Jesus disturbs them more than the chaos of Legion. So they demand something tragic—they ask Jesus to leave. But not the man who was freed. He doesn't want Jesus to go without him. He begs to follow. But Jesus gives him a more important assignment: “Go home to your friends and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you.” And the man obeys. He tells his story. And people marvel. That's the power of a testimony. Theologians can argue. Skeptics can question. But no one can refute a changed life. This man didn't go to seminary—he came out of the tombs. And now he's a missionary to the very region that once feared him. That's what Jesus does. So—what has Jesus done for you that someone else needs to hear? You may not have a “Legion” story. But you do have a mercy story. Share it. Tell it. Live the mission. Don't keep it to yourself. God wants to use the story He's given you to preach the good news to others. You are the mouth he wants to use to tell the world about his mercy. #FromDarknessToLight, #MercyStory, #JesusSaves ASK THIS: What stands out most about the man's transformation? Why do you think the people were more afraid of Jesus than of Legion? How has God's mercy changed your life? Who in your life might need to hear that story? DO THIS: Write down your story—one moment or season where Jesus met you with mercy. Then, ask God to show you who needs to hear it this week. PRAY THIS: Jesus, thank you for the mercy you've shown me. Don't let me keep it to myself. Use my story to point others to your love and power. Amen. PLAY THIS: "My Story" by Big Daddy Weave.

From Venus and Mars blazing through these zones to cultural reflections in fashion, music, and film, this episode reveals how Gandanta moments often show up in our lives as breakdowns, breakthroughs, or the beach trips we didn't know we needed.✨ Along the way, you'll meet:Alchemical lovers balancing masculine and feminine forcesThe mythic tides of transformation hidden in pop songs and wave-washed ritualsThe zodiac's own meltdown points, where karma tightens—and then lets goWhether you're riding the edge of a personal shift or just curious about why your life feels like a spiritual soap opera lately, this episode offers insights, tools, and a cosmic mirror.Takeaways:Gandanta is not a problem—it's a passage.Transformation requires both fire to burn and water to flow.Your emotional chaos might just be sacred architecture.Tune in, untangle, and let the river burn.

You've been taught that spiritual maturity looks like control. Stoicism. Discipline. Measured responses. But what if that's not maturity at all—just emotional suppression dressed in a Bible verse? This week on Win Today, Zach Meerkreebs, known for his role in the Asbury Outpouring, joins me to dismantle the cultural scorecard we've built around spiritual growth. We're talking about the false belief that spiritual people don't struggle. That leaders don't wrestle with anxiety. That if you're in pain, you're just not “surrendered” enough.

Adding YouTube to your podcasting game? Well, grab a seat because Thomas Umstadt Jr. is here to share what works and what doesn't. We're talking about the nitty-gritty of taking your audio-only podcast and slapping it onto the video platform that everyone and their grandma seems to be on. Thomas recounts his journey from simple audiograms to full-blown video episodes, sharing the highs and lows of his transition. Spoiler alert: it turns out that just tossing your podcast audio onto YouTube won't cut it. You need to think about titles and thumbnails—yes, those flashy little images that scream ‘click me!' As he explains, those are your first impressions; if they're not catchy, your content might as well be invisible. He dives into the technicalities too, discussing everything from gear and lighting to the importance of having a good backdrop (hello, bookshelves!). Plus, he shares some gold nuggets about audience demographics that might just make you rethink how you approach your content. So whether you're on the fence about YouTube or just curious about what the fuss is all about, this episode is packed with insights that might just give your podcast the boost it needs.

Titles and thumbnails are crucial for YouTube success, unlike in traditional podcasting. The first 30 seconds of your video need to grab attention or viewers will bounce. Using your phone as a camera can yield better results than expensive gear for video. A strong opening is key for YouTube; don't dilly-dally with long intros like in podcasts. Experimenting with different content formats can lead to surprising audience growth on YouTube. Did you get value from this show?

HIV emerged in the world at a time when medicine and healthcare were undergoing two major transformations: globalization and a turn toward legally inflected, rule-based ways of doing things. It accelerated both trends. While pestilence and disease are generally considered the domain of biological sciences and medicine, social arrangements—and law in particular—are also crucial. Drawing on years of research in HIV clinics in the United States, Thailand, South Africa, and Uganda, Governing the Global Clinic: HIV and the Legal Transformation of Medicine (University of Chicago Press, 2025) by Dr. Carol Heimer examines how growing norms of legalized accountability have altered the work of healthcare systems and how the effects of legalization vary across different national contexts. A key feature of legalism is universalistic language, but, in practice, rules are usually imported from richer countries (especially the United States) to poorer ones that have less adequate infrastructure and fewer resources with which to implement them. Challenging readers to reconsider the impulse to use law to organize and govern social life, Governing the Global Clinic poses difficult questions: When do rules solve problems, and when do they create new problems? When do rules become decoupled from ethics, and when do they lead to deeper moral commitments? When do rules reduce inequality? And when do they reflect, reproduce, and even amplify inequality? This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Here's the truth: no one is buying your offer just because of what's included. In this episode, Emma unpacks why belief-based content—not feature-stuffed sales pages—is what actually moves your audience from scrolling to sold. Using sharp, real-world examples (hello, Peloton!) and behind-the-scenes insights from digital businesses, she reveals how to shift your messaging from what you do to what your audience needs to believe is possible. You'll learn how to future-cast, reframe limiting assumptions, and position your offer as the catalyst for transformation. If your content is packed with deliverables but low on conversions, this belief-first approach might just be the missing link in your sales cycle. Listen in as Emma explains: How to reposition your offer as the solution to who your audience wants to become Why future-casting content helps your audience see themselves inside the transformation The three types of belief-based content that spark connection and speed up conversions And so much more!   Connect with Ninety Five Media: Website Instagram  Need Support with Your Podcast?

In Song of Solomon 1:9-15, we discover pure love - the kind that makes you stand out like a treasured mare among royal chariots.But here's the problem: we're broken.

He quiets our restless souls and fills us with his aroma.The question is: what do your eyes reveal about the condition of your heart? Are they raven eyes or dove eyes?Key Takeaways:* Pure love means standing out in someone's eyes* Our broken senses are attracted to stench instead of fragrance* Christ adorns us with grace and makes us still* Transformation happens when we stop flying restlessly and return to himBased on Song of Solomon 1:9-15 and Genesis 8 This is a public episode.

Transformation doesn't begin in a wellness plan—it starts with one honest moment of saying, “I want more for myself.” Frank Ferrante's raw and remarkable story is a powerful reminder that healing is rarely linear and never perfect. Through addiction, regret, radical self-awareness, and rediscovery, Frank reveals that the heart of wellness is not about fixing what's broken—it's about reconnecting to love, service, and soul-level authenticity. His journey invites us to slow down, stop chasing illusions, and start showing up for ourselves and others with compassion, courage, and a deep sense of gratitude. Key Takeaways: Healing is an emotional and spiritual process that requires honesty, not perfection. Connection—with yourself and with others—is the antidote to addiction, loneliness, and despair. Regret doesn't have to define you; it can become a teacher when met with grace and accountability. True wellness is simple: kindness, presence, and treating everyone (including yourself) like they matter. Gratitude grounds you in the present and softens even the hardest parts of the past.   About Frank Ferrante: At 54 years old, Ferrante was the least likely candidate for a major personal transformation. He weighed close to 300 pounds and suffered from a slew of issues that were his unhappy legacy as an ex-junkie and ex-alcoholic: hepatitis C, chronic fatigue, joint pain, respiratory issues, depression, suicidal thoughts, and a libido that had gone into early retirement. He thought that "vegan" was a planet, "wellness" was not in his vocabulary, and he couldn't be bothered with self-help. He was for those very reasons the best candidate for a major personal transformation.  One day, he stumbled into Café Gratitude—a vegan raw food restaurant run by three 20-something hipsters. Unbeknownst to him, they'd been thinking about finding someone to put on a raw food diet and making a documentary that would be the polar opposite of Super Size Me. Ferrante was looking for something, anything, to create a shift in his life. As he says, "Like zillions of people, I was hungry not so much for food, but for love." Never mind that he was old enough to be the boys' father or that he'd ridiculed the New Age herd for years—he accepted them pretty much on the spot as his new "transformational cheerleaders." With the young men's unexpected support and guidance, Ferrante began a redemptive odyssey that included a plant-based diet, yoga, and daily affirmations—but then faced a battle for his life when his underlying addictions rose up to claim him. May I Be Frank chronicles Ferrante's experience of being the subject of a physical, mental, and spiritual makeover and also describes what happened next, post-transformation: he learned to love again.
