Have you ever thought about meditation as something only level 5000 yoga instructors or Buddhist monks practice? Today's guest, Ariel Garten (@ariels_musings), is here to enlighten us all about not just best practices when it comes to meditation but also the true science behind what goes in our brain and the myriad of benefits it can bring our everyday lives! Ariel is a co-founder of Muse: the brain sensing headband. Muse is the award-winning headband that makes meditation easier. During guided exercises, Muse senses your brain activity and sends that information to your phone or tablet, giving you real time audio feedback to help take the guesswork out of meditation. Ariel studied neuroscience at the University of Toronto and worked in labs at Toronto's Krembil Neuroscience Centre researching Parkinson's disease and hippocampal neurogenesis. No mere science nerd, Ariel is a fashion designer whose clothing opened Toronto Fashion Week in '03, and has had her work displayed at the Art Gallery of Ontario. Ariel's uncommon combination of science and art is integral to the design of Muse and to InteraXon's unique approach to brain sensing technology. Ariel was also a therapist in private practice. Ariel and her team are merging technology, neuroscience, art and design. As well as her full time position at Muse, Ariel keynotes around the world on technology, mindfulness and entrepreneurship and supports and advises a variety of start-ups.

Time to "translate complex concepts into leverage for your goals" with Sam Miller! Sam shares not only how bringing more attention to possible hormone imbalances may be negatively affecting your goals, but also his varying path of jobs and credentials that led him to his current endeavors. Like so many of us, finding our calling, our passion, our niche in the health and fitness industry can be daunting. But once you figure out what you don't want to do it makes finding what you do want much more possible! Sam's company, Oracle, was created when he was working with one of his clients. The client, Chris, was fond of the term and began using it as a nickname for Sam due to his ability to rely on him to explain complex science, training, and nutritional concepts. This is when Oracle Athletic Science and Oracle Training & Nutrition were conceived. Find Sam on Instagram @sammillerscience or visit https://www.OracleFitness.com to learn more about his coaching and training programs. Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

Thom King is not your typical CEO. Part chief executive officer, part personal development wonk, and part biohacker info geek, Thom is a self-confessed serial entrepreneur. While his favorite book list contains many success-oriented and personal-development classics, the classic definition of achieving success (e.g. make a lot of money) is not what inspires or motivates King. He follows more of a "you aren't doing well unless you're also doing some good" line of thinking. King's company has been built around the simple principle of "do the right thing." Founded by King in 1999, Stevia Brands Inc. is one of the largest importers, manufacturers and distributors of clean-label sweetening systems and natural sweeteners.

Welcome back to yet another experience from the Ever Forward Coach mentorship! Today we hear from our first guest speaker, Amanda Bucci, @amandabucci, back in January of 2018. Amanda is a world-class social media influencer, athlete (bikini and powerlifting), multiple business owner, entrepreneur and so much more. She shares her biggest obstacles and lessons learned when she decided to go all in on her goals; fears, limiting beliefs, successes, and even feedback on the visions of this group of budding entrepreneurs choosing to live a life ever forward. Take careful note of the group at this time; everyone was just beginning to develop their biggest goal of 2018, what their passion was, what type of impact they wanted to create in their lives and the lives of their communities.

More often than not, on the road to enlightenment or self-discovery or hell... just trying to be a decent human being we are met with those whom think our sh*t don't stink. Or feel offended by the way we choose to now live our life (or at least try to). Granted, some of this may simply because that person is not ready to do the work and make the change like we are, but other times it is our own ignorance in how to effectively convey our meaning, our true self, and our honest intent. Meet Amy E. Smith. She spent years finding her voice. Burried under other people's thoughts and opinions and notions about who she should and shouldn't be. Amy spent years as a damn-near SLAVE (drama intended) to highly restrictive religious dogma that constantly reminded her why she wasn't enough. She was motivated by two primary things: Guilt and fear. Fear of losing salvation. Fear of not fitting in. Fear of rocking the boat. Fear of speaking her truth and losing relationships. Guilt around following her intuition when it was in stark contrast to all the religious "rights" and "wrongs". So, Amy began uncovering who she REALLY was. Taking her opinions out for a spin. She searched out people and places where tapping into "ME" was applauded (aka. A shit-ton of coaching classes, trainings, and seminars). Where "right" and "wrong" always looked different. Amy started to develop her OWN sense of self. What she stood for. What she believed. And after a handful of breakdowns, she found her voice. And as it turns out it was there all along. Amy feels VERY strongly about being educated in the field of coaching, so she has a coaching certification (CPCC designation) through The Coaches Training Institute, a well-known pioneer educational establishment in the field of coaching. (aka. NOT just a weekend, online class saying "Wheeeeee, you're a coach now!"). Additionally, Amy is credentialed with the International Coaching Federation (ACC designation), which is currently the only governing body that oversees the coaching profession. Fancy, right? It is.

Welcome to a very special mini-series on the podcast with my graduate school, American University! I graduated from AU in 2017 with my MS in Health Promotion Management after completing my BS in Exercise Science from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2013. Health Promotion is the science and art of helping people, organizations, and communities change lifestyle behaviors to move toward a state of improved health resulting in decreases in chronic disease and health care costs. To accomplish this objective, we must learn the science of health through the study of nutrition, biology, anatomy and physiology, and psychology combined with program planning for health promotion by learning how to assess, implement, and evaluate programs that effectively achieve the outcome of improved health. Health promotion helps answer problems around: Establishing and managing wellness programs for employees and their families Developing effective media campaigns for emerging health issues Helping clients achieve fitness and nutrition goals Researching health policy and establishing state and national programs Integrating health promotion and disease management activities into the healthcare system Instituting innovative community-outreach programs Advocating for health issues and promoting wellness in communities

How do we measure success these days? What constitutes a "good life"? At Ever Forward, we believe that it is all about the IMPACT you make and so does today's guest Lisa Bilyeu. She is the co-founder of Quest Nutrition and president of Impact Theory with her husband Tom Bilyeu. Lisa is living proof that Darwin was right when he said "it is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but rather the most adaptive to change." She began her professional career in film, moved briefly into administration, and then, as a founding team member at Quest Nutrition, she took on logistics - building the company's fulfillment department from scratch and helping facilitate the company's rise to #2 on the Inc. 500 list of the fastest-growing private companies. She then returned to media helping build the company's revolutionary in-house media team, producing content that has been viewed over 100,000,000 times.

After being diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer and having three boys at home, Heather Chauvin quickly rose to the occasion and chose to build the life she wanted. Facing death was a revelation, to say the least. It forced her to ask, "Why am I fighting so hard to live when I don't even know how to live?" Life had to mean more than just barely surviving, living paycheck to paycheck, and believing existence meant taking up space. Heather Chauvin, BSW has been named the next generation's thought leader in parenting and women's leadership. Her mission is to crack women open to their deep potential and help them create the life their soul craves. Heather hosts the Mom Is In Control Podcast, and has been featured on the OWN network, Huffington Post, TV outlets and others. With wit and wisdom, Heather inspires a global community of women to take back control of their lives and evolve how they lead, work, play, and parent. Heather and I talk about: Being a parent at age eighteen Battling stage 4 cancer while being a mom of four and wife Her time as a social worker, seeing first hand how hurt people hurt people Teaching other parents how to heal their children, their family, their world by first healing themselves Learning how to be a good parent before having children My own experience with PTSD around my father's terminal illness (ALS/Lou Gehrig's disease) And more!

Growing up in a beach town in California, Erin Wathen was always an active kid, competed on sports teams in high school, and taught aerobics in college. She has run 1/2 marathons, finished a Tough Mudder and many 6 hour Spin rides for Charity. A graduate of the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN) and a Food Addiction Counselor (INFACT), Erin is also a Certified Spinning® Instructor (STAR 3), Vinyasa Yoga instructor (200 Hour) and Classical Pilates instructor. Even with all of her knowledge and exercise, she still was not at peace with her own body. Erin found nutrition to be the missing piece of the puzzle, as she was always on a diet and yet never at her goal weight. Through a lot of trial and error, she found her last diet. The last diet became her food plan and the basis of her book "Why Can't I Stick to My Diet? : How To End The Food Drama". Erin's philosophy simply put; Health isn't a number on the scale or how often we exercise, but our lives as whole. Together we will work on solutions that fit into your lifestyle. I will help you live your healthiest life in our crazy world. Ever Forward Radio is made possible by our proud partners!

Founder of the popular Hormones Balance online community, holistic nutrition coach MagdalenaWszelaki (on Instagram @hormonebalance) knows the value of cooking for hormone balance firsthand.

Now symptom free, Magdalena shares her practical, proven knowledge so others may benefit. In Cooking for Hormone Balance, she draws on current research to explain the essential role food plays in keeping our hormones in harmony and offers easy, flavorful recipes to help us eat our way to good health.

Meat, meat, meat, and more meat! Dr. Shawn "The Carnivore" Baker, M.D. is here to share with us his experience about being on a carnivore diet for over three years. He is an orthopedic surgeon, Air Force veteran, semi-pro rugby player, triathlete, Highland Games Masters world champion, and so much more. The main takeaway I hope we all have is that our dietary approach should always be done with doing our research on the foods we put into our bodies, take note of how we feel (internally and externally), and create a sense of awareness of how our diet can positively or negatively alter our health and performance goals.

What happens when we spend so much of our time, energy, and resources pursuing our biggest goals and something throws us off course? We have the rug pulled out from underneath us and are left to put together the pieces of our dreams? The easy way out is to give up, but that's not what living a life ever forward is all about - we are stronger than that! Tony Jeffries, 2008 Olympic bronze medalist and co-owner of the popular Box N Burn gym and training methodology in Southern California, share with us how he fought for and built his life with his own two hands.

Fasting - is this truly something worth our time and attention or is just the next "cool thing" in the health and fitness industry? Sal Di Stefano (on Instagram @mindpumpsal), one of the hosts of the incredible Mind Pump podcast, has decades of experience he is bringing to the table in this interview all about the many benefits and dangers to properly conducting a fast. Also, we dive into many other half truths, whole lies, and other misbeliefs that people should be paying attention to when it comes to maximizing their workouts, diets, and overall mindset towards improving their lives. More about today's expert guestl... Sal was 14 years old when he touched his first weight and from that moment he was hooked. Growing up asthmatic, frequently sick and painfully skinny, Sal saw weightlifting as a way to change his body and his self-image. In the beginning, Sal's body responded quickly to his training but then his gains slowed and then stopped altogether. Not one to give up easily, he began reading every muscle building publication he could get his hands on to find ways to bust through his plateau. He read Arnold's Encyclopedia of Bodybuilding, Mentzer's Heavy Duty, Kubrick's Dinosaur Training, and every muscle magazine he could find; Weider's Muscle and Fitness, Flex, Iron Man and even Muscle Media 2000. Each time he read about a new technique or methodology he would test it out in the gym. At age 18 his passion for the art and science of resistance training was so consuming that he decided to make it his profession and become a personal trainer. By 19 he was managing health clubs and by 22 he owned his own gym. After 17 years as a personal trainer he has dedicated himself to bringing science and TRUTH to the fitness industry.

*GIVEAWAY!!!* To win your very own copy of Lori Harder's new book A Tribe Called Bliss, make sure to share out this episode of your Instagram story and tag us @everforwardradio! The winner will be announced on IG on Wednesday, May 16 2018. The benefits of a having a tribe are undeniable. Those of us with strong social circles are living longer, happier, and healthier lives compared to those who lack connections. Today, we live in an über-connected era, in which anyone is able to make thousands of friends with the swipe of a finger—yet the way we are connecting leaves us feeling mistrustful, jealous, disempowered, fearful, misunderstood, and ultimately defeated. We are often left believing that success is a solo, isolating endeavor or, worse, that it is reserved only for the ruthless, physically blessed, or self-absorbed. Inspired by Lori's own journey through loss, loneliness, and disconnection and her fears of remaining an outsider and of never reaching her dreams, A Tribe Called Bliss details how Lori shed unfulfilling, surface-level friendships and discovered her untapped potential. Step by step, she lights the way to show you how you can achieve deep, meaningful relationships that accelerate and support your highest potential, while providing the tools to ensure unshakable faith in yourself and your journey. A Tribe Called Bliss is the way to lock in lasting, positive change and connect you to your soul's calling once and for all. This practical, timely book is for those of us seeking to discover our authentic calling, release our fears, and reach that next level. Lori provides the tools and contextual self-work exercises to develop the self-awareness and mindfulness that is the key to a lifetime of blissful happiness.
