Episode 49 Ryan ZofayIf you’ve been scarred by a rough past, you’re likely often thinking: Why is this happening to me?Most of us have been there. So did my guest for today’s episode of Success Leaves Clues, Ryan Zofay. After years of lingering trauma, rash coping mechanisms, and a low, ashamed mindset, Ryan decided to break even with life and eventually shape his path positively. While he attributes this change to the influence of motivational speaker and thought leader Tony Robbins, he’s able to sum it up into one life-changing realization: that life wasn’t happening “to” him, it was happening “for” him.In today’s episode, hear Ryan’s story of becoming a personal motivational coaching brand by learning to view life’s happenings as opportunities for growth and self-improvement. He reveals the tough relationship he’d formed with his father (who’d himself been traumatized from a divorce and the death of one of his children) as a child, and how it affected his behavior in relationships, specifically in a toxic relationship with his old partner. While the relationship had major falls, his then partner introduced him to Tony Robbins, whose words helped him understand his past behaviors and change them. Tony Robbins’ speeches led him to find his end goal of becoming a voice for those who are scared to speak up—which he does today through We Level Up.

Brenden Kumarasamy_ Show Notes“If you had all the money in the world, how would you spend your time?”“If you could only accomplish three things in your life, what would you want those three things to be?” “What&#39;s a goal or a dream that you secretly gave up on and never told anyone about?”These are three questions my guest Brenden Kumarasamy, a communication expert and the founder of the MasterTalk communication program, would ask you to ask yourself before sealing your success path. Following Tony Robbins&#39; words, he believes that the quality of your life is solely determined by the quality of the questions you ask yourself about life. But he adds his own spin to it. He says, ask yourself one hard question about life every single day for 30 days, and your life will never be the same. That is his 80-20 rule, also a major highlight of our conversation today!When giving up the position of a high-rising star at IBM to pursue his YouTube channel communication coaching full-time, he was as scared as anyone else would be to leave behind a secure job to pursue entrepreneurship. But that&#39;s all in the past now. From studying accounting in college to coaching others on how to win in case competitions, Brenden&#39;s journey in business and communication has been one of learning, growth, and giving back. Frustrated by the dearth of free communication coaching resources, he was determined to found his YouTube channel Master Talk, where he&#39;s since shared his expertise in communication with his followers. Despite making good money as a Communication Coach, he continues to prioritize making content on Master Talk free for those who may not have the resources to pay for it. His desire to give back and make a meaningful impact on others is exactly what drives him to continue sharing his knowledge and skills. He sits with me today to share the secrets to his successful life and career. Tune in to know why self-awareness tops the list! Success clues:●       Your self-awareness and how you analyze yourself matter a lot in life.●       At any point, don&#39;t stop to analyze what you&#39;re doing and where you&#39;re at. ●       Overcome fear instead of being stuck in it. ●       Learn to embrace the uncomfortable. Success, growth, learning, and stretching yourself, all of that is very uncomfortable.  Shoutout to our Sponsor, Morgan and Co.: <a href="https://www.morganandcorealty.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.morganandcorealty.com</a> Meet The Guest!Brenden Kumarasamy is a Communication Expert and the Founder of MasterTalk, his private coaching community and program.Connect with BrendenInstagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/masteryourtalk" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/masteryourtalk</a>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/brendenkumarasamy/" rel="nofollow">https://www.linkedin.com/in/brendenkumarasamy/</a> Connect with meInstagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/drkwashington/" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/drkwashington/</a> Time Stamps[00:00] Sneak peek[00:46] Brenden’s early life and path to becoming a top-notch public speaker[01:38] Brenden’s heart to give back to society through his free communication coaching resources and the idea behind it[03:23] Giving is receiving.

Kyle Livingston - Show NotesLosing $200,000 in under 9 months, Kyle Livingston&#39;s investment in his new business led to no gain - just unbearable pain. The experience, a disaster never foreseen, affected him so much that he started to feel like a failure, that anything he would ever set foot on would turn out bad. (You know, that&#39;s the trauma doing the talk!) With his mind replaying the bad times and refusing to get out of the negative thoughts, Kyle lost another hundreds of thousands of dollars in the subsequent months, and had a handful to loathe about for 18 months. But what was behind this series of failures? Could he have avoided it? As Kyle sits with Dr. K in this episode of Success Leaves Clues, he reveals the sense of ego (from building and selling two successful brick-and-mortar businesses in the past), the lack of direction, the fear of failure, and the Shiny Object Syndrome experience which carried him to the point of huge losses in his entrepreneurial journey. But the losses, however dismantling, taught him to do business the right way when he ventured into it the next time. He gets into the systems, processes, faith, and habits he set, including time study, goal-setting, and mindset training to restructure his business to align towards success from failure. His journey is testimony to the fact that one must change their idea of money (drawing references from the Bible) to learn to make enough and more of it.Today, as a mentor and coach for businesses, Kyle uses his experience to help businesspersons with potential find solutions to their problems by tuning their minds out of scarcity and self-loathing and towards abundance. Tune in to this episode of Success Leaves Clues to learn invaluable tips to become successful in your business!Success clues from today’s episode:           ● We can overcome fear by changing our perspective on it. Focus on the opportunity that lies beneath the fear.           ● Having faith in God or something bigger always helps you overcome failures and fears and become stronger.         ● In difficult times, having someone with us, like family or friends, can help us see things clearer and hence better.Shoutout to our Sponsor, Morgan and Co.: <a href="https://www.morganandcorealty.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.morganandcorealty.com</a>Meet The Guest!Kyle Livingston is a coach, consultant, and mentor for businesses.

Episode 43 Kyle CarlinKyle Carlin, now a winning real estate entrepreneur, started his professional career as a sports anchor – filming, editing, shooting, and presenting videos for high-school athletes, helping them get recruited to play in college. The experience, though starkly different from an investing career, introduced him to many nuances of being a professional, including sales, networking, teaching, and presentation. That, along with the business lessons gained gradually in life, has helped him establish a gratifying career in real estate – as an entrepreneur, coach, and podcaster!Kyle&#39;s biggest breakthrough happened when he realized that he had been exhausting himself by not outsourcing people to work for him. By investing his time into every single task, however big or small, he was narrowing his potential. So, if you ask him today, he&#39;d tell you that the one thing he would&#39;ve done differently in the early days of his real estate journey is to hire people for his team. In his words, &#34;I don&#39;t have to figure all this out on my own, I can bring someone in that will show me the way. And that probably could have cut five or six years off of my learning curve.&#34;He sits with me in this episode of Success Leaves Clues to share his top advice to help you become a fearless real estate investor and achieve financial freedom in the shortest time possible.

Episode 41 David CarlinDavid Carlin and his wife Patricia have gradually and quite patiently built a massive passive income stream through an industry little-known to most: digital payments. When everyone else was on the grind – either on their own business or employed at someone else&#39;s – the power couple was constantly on the joyride – traveling the world, golfing, and whatnot. People found it hard to believe you could make much money as them by just helping people and businesses get set up with credit card processing. So the couple even made a course out of their business functionalities – The Digital Payments Revolution – which sells for just a few ten dollars!David joins me on the podcast today to explain how the whole system of his business works and how it yields him the returns and affords him the lifestyle he can today. Residual Payments is a proven model; a little bit of a grind until the first few wins, yet a terrific time investment. He reveals the different things that go into setting up + running the business, the mindset secrets to such incredible success, and the way forward with Residual Payments.David also reminisces about his journey to entrepreneurship, pivoting from a retail bike business upon the advice of his now-wife and business partner Patricia Carlin.

Episode 36 KeithOwning both your strengths and weaknesses gives you the power to move forward in life confidently. And it is evident in the life story of Keith, my entrepreneur-boxer guest for this episode of Success Leaves Clues.Coming from a boxer-artist family gave him an edge on those skills, some he had by birth, and some he developed professionally. He was also well-off financially. But despite his upper-middle class background, which in reality, created a “soft existence” for him, he faced multiple challenges in life. The first of them probably being Lyme disease.When most of his pals were getting ready to go to college, working jobs, or having girlfriends, Keith saw his life fall apart because of the disease. He felt like a loser devoid of any self-worth. But in the years that followed, Keith turned the thought around in his mind by slowly building up his self-worth and ultimately his personal brand by becoming a renowned entrepreneur with his own boxing gym, called the Keppner Boxing Gym.Listen to this episode to hear Keith’s personal and professional growth and the trajectory it took to get him to where he is today!Shoutout to our Sponsor, Morgan and Co.: <a href="http://www.morganandcorealty.com/" rel="nofollow">www.morganandcorealty.com</a> Success Clues From Today’s Episode●       Have clarity in life: whether it’s your relationships or business.
