Growth Now Movement with Justin Schenck

Cal Knight, an ambitious corporate escapee, takes a calculated risk to pursue his passion and discovers his true identity amidst a journey of suffering, bravery, and exploration. You will learn how to awaken and deepen your spiritual journey, and take your spiritual growth to the next level. "When you are living in alignment with your purpose, it's a lot easier to show up every single day. It takes a lot of exploring and kind of experimentation sometimes, and I think the suffering is inevitable. Suffering is really just more about do you give meaning to your suffering so that you suffer for a reason that is much higher than you could ever imagine." Cal Knight is a highly respected businessman, mental coach, and spiritual guide to professionals, entrepreneurs, CEOs, star athletes, and celebrities. Through his own journey of self-discovery, teaching, and miraculous spiritual evolution, he's honoring his own destiny through service by activating truth seekers, and empowering free-thinkers to live deeply fulfilling lives. Through guided questioning, he has accelerated people's evolution, connected them to their unique purpose, and inspired them to embrace the inevitable suffering in life; understanding the deeper purpose of fulfilling one's true destiny is always worth it. Cal Knight and the host Justin Schenck had both traveled similar paths in their lives, having worked in the corporate life and met each other while working for the different organizations. They both felt like they didn't fit in and wanted to pursue something they were passionate about, so they took calculated risks in order to take control of their lives and pursue what they felt they were meant to do. They both experienced suffering as they discovered who they were and pursued their dreams, but they found that the suffering was worth it if it meant they were growing and moving closer to their North Star. In this episode, you will learn the following: 1. How does one transition from a corporate life to a life of entrepreneurship? 2. How does one discover and pursue their purpose? 3. What strategies can be used to overcome imposter syndrome and live in alignment with one's true destiny? Resources: Check out Cal's new podcast HERE Want to reach more people with your Podcast?

Melissa Reilly is a clinical psychologist and coach for moms without a mom, helping them move from feelings of insecurity, isolation and overwhelm to resilience.

When an underdog entrepreneur is furloughed from work and falls into a pattern of destructive behavior, he decides to take control and change his life for the better. "I realized now I started to find purpose in life because I wasn't the best musician, I wasn't the best drummer. I played guitar, drums, this and that. But my real sweet spot was handing out flyers, talking to people, connecting with people, and that's where Ben Albert is the owner of Balbert Marketing, LLC and the curator of the Real Business Connections Network. He is a successful entrepreneur who is passionate about helping other underdogs achieve their dreams. This is Ben Albert's story... I was always a shy, reclusive kid, and my dad taught me to hide my problems and not speak up when I needed help. As a result, I developed some addictions that I hid from everyone. I had a good job, but when COVID hit and I was laid off, I started binge drinking and it got out of control. I looked in the mirror and I knew I needed to make a change. I started stacking values and stacking skills, and I slowly began to turn my life around. I'm now sober, and I'm living my life as an entrepreneur. I'm in the mud learning as I go, but I'm loving every minute of it. Chapter Summaries: [00:04:08] - Ben albert won a contest to get on justin's podcast.

Amberly now regularly shares the stage with people like Ed Mylett, Trent Shelton, Bedros Keulian and more..but it wasn't always like that. As a personal trainer, wife, and mother, Amberly Lago was living the California dream until it turned into a nightmare in May 2010. As she rode her Harley down Ventura Boulevard that breezy, sunny day, Lago was hit by an SUV, throwing her thirty feet down a busy street and shattering her right leg. Months in the hospital and 34 surgeries, along with plates, pins, and sheer will eventually spared Lago's leg and severed femoral artery, despite the initial recommendation to amputate. However, as a sexual abuse and divorce survivor, Lago determined to save not only her leg, but her career, her dreams, and her dignity. This Texas girl at heart dug deep to find the hope and faith needed to face her life's greatest challenge. Amberly's unwavering commitment to regain her active lifestyle of training clients transformed her tragedy into victory and she motivates her audiences to find resilience in their own difficulties. She is a fierce advocate for others who suffer from CRPS and proves that any challenge can be overcome by the support of others as well as a determination and belief in oneself.

When Spencer Schneider was a twenty-nine-year-old Manhattan corporate lawyer, an acquaintance invited him to a secret meeting of an "esoteric school for inner development," known to its students simply as "School." Suspicious yet curious, he went. At first, he found support, community, and meaning. But soon, he found himself trapped in one of the nation's most secretive and abusive cults. In the name of personal development, hundreds endured decades of sexual and physical abuse, forced labor, arranged marriages, swindled savings and inheritances, and systematic terrorizing. Some of them broke the law. All for their charismatic and demented leader Sharon Gans, a washed-up actress who claimed to be on a spiritual par with Buddha. This is Schneider's story of how he got entangled in School, why he stayed, and how–– impossibly––he got out after twenty-three years. It's a cautionary tale about the power of group psychology and how anyone can be radicalized. It's also a story of surviving traumatic abuse and ultimately finding a path to healing. Spencer Schneider is an attorney who specializes in corporate litigation in New York. A native of Brooklyn, Mr. Schneider is an open water marathon swimmer and ice water swimmer. He works as an ocean lifeguard, operates a lifeguard training academy, and co-founded a water rescue group. He is the only member or former member of School to have published his experience in the cult. He was a member of School's inner circle for twenty-three years. He started the blog about School called "Cult Revolt." A contributing writer for East Magazine, he lives in New York City and East Hampton.

Our mind's a powerful thing....it can either make or break us.

Metamorphosis and the patterns of nature inform her methodology. She unpacks our dichotomy of emotional poverty to reunite us with our innate desire to be free. Jennifer is on a mission to help world leaders free themselves of the chains that hold them back from living wealthy – replacing overwhelm, stress, and anxiety in the money equation with a wholesome, regenerative, and nourishing experience while raising, making, managing, growing, and contributing money. These leaders become good allies in society and to future generations while living soulfully connected, deeply satisfying, and very wealthy lives.

I'm back with another solo-episode! After reflecting on Growth Now Summit LIVE! & launching the Growth Now Community...I've had some time to reflect on how I've been able to lean into my fears and live in my purpose. After reflecting, I came to realize that it is the Spiritual piece that has allowed me to embrace the fear. When we remove the human part of our experience on earth, we realize that its what's inside of us that's our super power....but we allow our "skin suit" to hide our super powers. So, tune into the episode and figure our why spirituality is such a key part to living a purpose drive, fulfilled life. Then, join the Growth Now Community where you're able to learn from and connect with myself, our monthly guest mentors, and the others in the community.

Dan Clouser founded and ran a nonprofit youth sports organization for 30 years called the Berkshire Baseball & Softball Club, which later became the BIG Vision Foundation. He truly loved every second of what he did. His passion was working with kids and teaching them leadership skills and life lessons through sports and community service. He honestly thought that he would have died doing what he loved. Then in 2019, Dan felt a calling from God for his wife, Sandy, and him to leave their comfort zone and start a new journey. A literal journey, selling most of their material things and setting out across this beautiful country in an RV with their golden retriever, Youkilis. Sounds crazy, but it was also destined to happen.

Because this is Summit week - we have a Quick solo episode this week talking about the fact that you're one connection away from changing your life. Justin challenges you to push yourself out of your comfort zone so you're able to find your community and level up your life. There's still time to get virtual access to Growth Now Summit LIVE!

Hugh McTavish is the founder and Executive Director of COVID Sanity (COVID-Sanity.org). He is a Ph.D. biochemist and immunologist and also a patent attorney. He has authored 18 refereed sci-entific journal articles and is the inventor on 21 U.S. patents. He has started two pharmaceutical companies off of his own inventions—IGF Oncology, LLC, for a targeted drug for cancer, and Squarex, LLC, for a treatment that prevents cold sores or oral herpes virus outbreaks. The cancer drug invention came as an outgrowth of his having cancer. It was an improvement on the drugs and treatment he received as a cancer patient. The cold sore treatment he invented in order to treat his own frequent cold sores and originally tested on himself. So Hugh has a history of taking personal adversity and turning it into a positive. He did it again with the COVID lockdowns. When COVID lockdowns started, Hugh says he lost his entire social life because Tim Walz ordered his church and his health club closed. It threw him, like 63 million other Americans, into depression. But it also energized him to fight back—not only for himself but also for everyone else whose lives were deemed unimportant by Tim Walz and Antony Fauci with the lockdowns. He started a nonprofit, COVID-Sanity.org. He started writing against the lockdowns within days of their being implemented, predicting that the harms of the lockdowns, even in deaths caused (due to increased suicides and drug overdoses and increased cancer deaths) versus those prevented, would be vastly greater than the benefits. He has been proven right. Now Hugh is introducing his idea of Jury Democracy to transform our system of government for the better, unite us instead of dividing us, and make policy based on evidence and reason instead of money and anger and divisions.

How can we show up everywhere? That's the question that built their business. But before getting into that... Growing up, they fought. Now, they work together. After their last opportunity to become professional soccer players, the Luis' needed a way to fund their life outside of Venezuela and help their family… ...while making an impact! They didn't know where to start, but a typical job was not an option. After multiple business attempts such as stickers, t-shirts, ebooks library, social media marketing, and videography, they didn't know what to do. Books, podcasts, and events started being a regular part of our life. But it wasn't until they started digging deeper into other entrepreneur problems that they knew what they had to do. The journey shaped the skills… ...but the drive to help has always been there. Piece by piece Luis & Fonzi built their own "Content Machine". Later, they decided it was time to help others do the same. Now, they help businesses turn their long-form content into value-packed assets to build an audience and achieve the frictionless sale.
