Fasting or Paleo? Every day we hear about a new ingredient that is good or bad, a new diet that promises everything. But the secret to becoming healthier, losing weight, living an energetic life, and healing the planet has nothing to do with counting calories or feeling deprived—the key is re‑learning how to eat like a human.

There are seasoned entrepreneurs, gifted speakers, and best-selling authors, but rarely do you find all three in one person. Peter Montoya is that rare exception. Author of The Brand Called YOU, skilled orator with over 4,000 keynotes under his belt and creator of the game-changing tech startup, Urth, a social media platform which will eliminate bots, trolls, and misinformation. Today Peter is going to share with us insights from his newest best-selling book, The Second Civil War: A citizen's guide to healing our fractured nation. He'll share practical lessons, not only how to cope with relationships with those whose political views we find intolerable, but also how to rehabilitate those relationships, making them healthier than ever before. Hate speech. Cancel culture. Divisive rhetoric. Insurrection. These days, the civility of American civilians leaves much to be desired. So much so that in his first speech as the President of the United States, Joe Biden called on Americans to put an end to the "uncivil war," to unite together to give the country a fighting chance. But how did the country get here? A war, civil or not, doesn't brew overnight, and it simply isn't instigated by a singular person or political party. In The Second Civil War: A citizens' guide to healing our fractured nation (August 3, 2021), highly sought-after speaker and bestselling author Peter Montoya dissects fear-based messaging and highly accessible technology, revealing how they have placed individuals—everyday Americans—on both the front lines and within the command bunkers in the early stages of this second civil war, and provides strategies and solutions to bring the conflict to an amicable end.

Ricky is best known as the Heisman Trophy Winner and NFL Pro Bowl Running back who caused some waves when he start to speak out on the recreational use of marijuana, in which he turned to, to help with his social anxiety. In this episode, we talk about his journey to and from the NFL! How he is now a very gifted Astrologer and the CEO of the new Astrology matching up -- LOLA! This is an eye opening conversation where you can see the true heart and drive of Ricky and how he's changing the world with his passions. Ricky was born to humble beginnings in San Diego — The Crib! — where as a high schooler, he excelled at football, baseball and track. At a very young age, he had an intuitive sense that life is an adventure, and that the highs and lows are therefore expected (and welcomed) as part of the ride. In 1998, he was awarded the 64th Heisman Trophy, at the age of 21. In the middle of his accomplished NFL career, Ricky found cannabis and everything changed. At the time, he became synonymous with the negative stereotype of the lazy stoner. Undeterred by people's ignorance, and inspired by the desire to understand his fascination with cannabis, Ricky set off to study the origins of cannabis in the foothills of the Himalayans. Ricky now lives the wisdom of what he discovered on his journey, and yes, it includes smoking weed daily.On his journeys, Ricky discovered than cannabis was only one of thousands of plants humans have used to improve their quality of life. To deepen his knowledge of how herbs are used medicinally, Ricky enrolled in both Ayurvedic (Indian) and Traditional Chinese Medicine study programs. The insights gained from these studies gave Ricky the keys to his own healing. Ricky now shares his healing insights through his herbal formulations, healing bodywork, wellness consultations, and… Astrology! On his journeys, Ricky also discovered astrology, the real healer. 16 years ago, Ricky began a life long study and practice of astrology. All eastern healing systems proclaim, that the root of all illness is ignorance of our true nature. Astrology is an excellent map and guide to finding and understanding ourselves. Time booked with Ricky is spent taking a long, deep look in the astrological mirror. The common experience of everyone who talks to Ricky about their chart is that they feel "seen". Once you see who you REALLY are, your begin to realize your wholeness, your healing.

Owen Asztalos started acting professionally when he was just 3 years old performing in live theatre and commercials.

Owen has appeared on several television shows including Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (Netflix), Shades of Blue (CBS), Jessica Jones (Netflix) and The Flight Attendant (HBO Max). After a grueling audition process, Owen Asztalos landed his first lead in a feature as 'Young J.D. Vance' in Netflix/ Imagine Entertainment's Hillbilly Elegy. Of the experience, Owen says "I can safely say that working with Ron Howard has been the most incredibly experience of my entire life. To have the privilege of coming to set everyday and watch a man who's made 70+ movies, ridiculous. He's a genius and the best at what he does, hands down. I'm super grateful for the entire experience, I couldn't have asked for a better mentor nor a better role." Owen's other passions include traveling with his ice hockey team and playing guitar.

Benj Heard is an accomplished songwriter, producer, and artist based in Los Angeles. Growing up as the youngest of five boys and one girl in Oklahoma, Benj learned the intricacy of 6 part harmony while singing with his siblings.

As an artist, his music has represented brands such as Apple, Microsoft, Google, Nikon, Samsung, The NFL, Virgin America and many more. Make sure to check out Benj Heard's first full length album, Aeroplanes, is a confection of old soul feelings with new pop sensibilities.
