In Lolita's words:
When I arrived in the US two decades ago, fueled by the ambition to build my American dream, I believed in the limitless possibilities. Juggling fifty-hour work weeks, I eagerly took on projects and additional responsibilities to prove my capability. Fearful of saying no to coworkers, I found myself overworked, eventually succumbing to burnout. My exercise routine consisted of brief breaks away from my desk, while my diet relied on unhealthy office snacks. One pivotal mistake, born from burnout and workaholism, forced me to reevaluate my lifestyle. A collapse on my kitchen floor led to a simple diagnosis: stress. Seeking natural stress management solutions, I embraced improved time management, learned to decline additional burdens, adopted a healthier diet, and incorporated exercise. However, despite these positive changes, I felt that something essential was missing. The missing piece revealed itself when I stumbled upon a business book authored by someone who identified as an adult child of an alcoholic. It struck a chord because my own father struggled with alcoholism. This realization illuminated the profound impact it had on my stress management strategies compared to those from more stable backgrounds. I understood that while well-known techniques like meditation and yoga provided relief, addressing the underlying childhood trauma wound was crucial. The capacity to manage stress not only influences our behavior in the workplace but also shapes our friendships, intimate relationships, overall outlook on life, and the pursuit of goals Armed with the knowledge of healing and navigating stress, I am now fervently dedicated to helping others do the same.

Hello, I'm Erik Scott, a Systems Engineer with 21 years of experience in designing supercomputers. Beyond my professional life, I'm a dedicated JuJitsu practitioner and a former CrossFit competition judge. My fitness journey spans 28 years, exploring various modalities and even participating in endurance-based events like GORUCK Rucking.
One significant turn in my journey was battling five years of severe back pain, leading me to explore MSC Stem Cell treatment in Colombia, resulting in a remarkable transformation. Today, I'm not only a proud newlywed but also a committed advocate for health and fitness, having shed 20 pounds in just a month and a half.
As a new father and husband, my life has taken on new dimensions, and I bring a unique perspective to discussions about balancing a demanding career, maintaining physical and mental well-being, and navigating transformative life experiences. I believe in the power of discipline and positive habits, lessons learned through personal challenges and triumphs. I'm excited to share my story and insights on podcasts, bringing a blend of professional expertise, personal journey, and the joys and challenges of being a new father and husband to your audience.
Hero’s Journey:
“My journey took a significant turn when I faced the relentless challenge of extreme back pain for over five years. This pain, compounded by my rigorous fitness routines, left me with no positive results from medical teams in the United States. One year ago, driven by detailed research, I made the courageous decision to seek MSC Stem Cell treatment for issues including L2-L5 disc herniations, L1-L2 and L3-L4 bulging discs, and L3-L4 canal stenosis. This choice was met with scepticism from medical professionals, friends, and family, as it involved travelling to Colombia for treatment.Fast forward one year, and the transformation is undeniable. A ‘before and after’ MRI comparison revealed increased hydration in the herniated disks, the absence of bulging discs, and no signs of canal stenosis, all without inflammation in other areas. My unwavering commitment to health and fitness remained, especially as I embarked on a new chapter of my life, as a newlywed with a baby on the way. The realization that I needed to shed weight and embrace positive habits drove me to action. Fearful that I might not be able to lift my daughter off the ground, I sought the guidance of a mindset, nutrition, and fitness mentor, resulting in a remarkable 20-pound weight loss in just four months. I learned that the pain of discipline far outweighs any regret from neglecting my well-being.”

430 John Lawyer: How Living Your Higher Purpose Changes Everything
Friday Mar 29, 2024
Friday Mar 29, 2024
From desert combat zones to a battle within, John Lawyer transformed from soldier to spiritual seeker. He acts as one of several guides for Kishar, a non-profit online spiritual community. This community is a place for people to share their journeys and explore their own unique spiritual paths. John is an omnist and believes in the validity of most spiritual and religious beliefs around the world. He offers individual spiritual guidance and coaching services as part of the Kishar Spiritual Community.
In John's words:
It wasn't alcohol for me, it was war. I spent my adult youth at war. Twelve out of my first fifteen years of adulthood in Kuwait, Iraq and Afghanistan. I was both traumatized without knowing and also a war addict. I couldn't leave and didn't know anything else. But eventually I was able to start healing and find my way. I ended up on a spiritual path, and now I help people help themselves. Find their wholeness inside. Their light. I believe we can use the crossroads of spirituality and lifestyle to live the best life for ourselves every single day. It's both esoteric and practical, just like the universe and world we live in. I am very much interested in how we discover our higher purpose/dharma and then align that with our day-to-day life. For me, this changed everything.
3 Top Tips
Letting go: Learning to release attachments by practicing forgiveness and non-judgment of ourselves and others
Be Open to the Universe: It will send us amazing things, but we have to be open to it
Mindset and Perspective: How we approach things completely changes how we live our lives
