S1 Ep 239Todd White Unboxing | The Power of Your Testimony In Leaving A Lasting Legacy

Life Is Short-Leave a Legacy. The Todd White Story is his new book which came out at the beginning of this year which means you can go and grab a copy now. Todd White was a drug addict and atheist for 22 years until 2004 when he was radically set free! Todd believes that redemption and righteousness are the foundational keys for living life as a new creation in Christ. Todd’s foremost desire is to see the Holy Spirit flowing through believers everywhere that they go–at work, school, grocery stores, malls, gas stations, and more. Todd’s true joy is being able to reproduce a 24/7 kingdom lifestyle in every believer. His heart is to activate people in the simplicity of who they really are and confront the barriers that hold them back from being who God created them to be.Evangelist Todd White hears those words often. But the truth is that what Todd shares is not just a story - it's a testimony. It is evidence not only of what God has done but of what He wants to do again. It is evidence of what God can and will do for you, of what God wants to do for you.Fully addicted to drugs and pornography as a child, Todd lived in darkness. But his testimony is about a journey from that utter darkness into marvelous light. It is about a man who hungers for the Word of God and has been radically saved, changed by it. It is about a man learning to be exactly who God created him to be. It is about a child of God walking in the light of Jesus and wanting others to walk in the light too.With refreshing honesty, Todd White challenges readers to make Jesus their everything, to renew their minds, to be bold as lions, and to make an impact for the kingdom of God.Buy Todd's new book here: Amazon AU: https://www.amazon.com.au/Life-Short-Leave-Legacy-White/dp/0989410471/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= Amazon US: https://www.amazon.com/Life-Short-Leave-Legacy-White/dp/0989410471 Connect with Todd White here: Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/lifestylechristianity/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/lifestylechristianity https://www.facebook.com/ToddWhiteLC/  YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/toddwhitelc  Follow The Story Box on Social MediaINSTAGRAM ► - https://www.instagram.com/thestoryboxpodcast/ TWITTER ► - https://twitter.com/jay_fantom FACEBOOK ► - https://www.facebook.com/thestoryboxpodcast WEBSITE ► - https://thestoryboxpodcast.com/SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE! Apple Podcast ► - https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-story-box/id1486295252 Spotify ► - https://open.spotify.com/show/7h8Qv3r2ZV29f7ktJOwmgM?si=FXxYC1JFSHesBv7_d1WtNQ WATCH HERE:YouTube ► - https://www.youtube.com/c/TheStoryBox If you enjoyed this episode please subscribe to YouTube & Apple Podcasts, and leave a 5-star positive rating and review over on Apple Podcasts.

S1 Ep 235Bessel Van Der Kolk Unboxing | The Body Keeps The Score Understanding & Healing From Trauma

Bessel van der Kolk MD has spent his professional life studying how children and adults adapt to traumatic experiences. He translates emerging findings from neuroscience and attachment research to develop and study a range of effective treatments for traumatic stress and developmental trauma in children and adults.Integrating Therapy with ScienceIn the past 3 decades, we have learned an enormous amount about brain functions and interpersonal attachment systems. This new knowledge has not always been systematically applied to help traumatized children and adults heal from trauma. Dr. van der Kolk's work is focused on integrating therapy with science.Dr. van der Kolk has published over 150 peer-reviewed articles, diversely ranging from neuroimaging, self-injury, memory, neurofeedback, developmental trauma, yoga, and theater to EMDR.The Body Keeps The ScoreBRAIN, MIND, AND BODY IN THE HEALING OF TRAUMAThe Body Keeps the Score is the inspiring story of how a group of therapists and scientists— together with their courageous and memorable patients—has struggled to integrate recent advances in brain science, attachment research, and body awareness into treatments that can free trauma survivors from the tyranny of the past. These new paths to recovery activate the brain’s natural neuroplasticity to rewire disturbed functioning and rebuild step by step the ability to “know what you know and feel what you feel.” They also offer experiences that directly counteract the helplessness and invisibility associated with trauma, enabling both adults and children to reclaim ownership of their bodies and their lives.4 week program with Bessel van der KolkIn this dynamic, interactive series, Bessel van der Kolk, M.D. expands on his groundbreaking work The Body Keeps the Score, where he synthesizes history, neurology, and trauma research to deepen our understanding of trauma and trauma treatment.We invite you to join us for this distinctive and exciting 4-week program where Dr. van der Kolk will begin with a lecture followed by an open dialogue session. This is an exciting opportunity to explore ideas, critically examine trauma and trauma treatments, and hear directly from Dr. van der Kolk about the things that most ignite your interests.Each of the 4 sessions are 1.5 hours, with the time divided between lecture and dialogue with Dr. van der Kolk. Questions can be submitted both in advance and live during the session. Your questions, thoughts, and ideas will help shape the series.USE CODE: storyboxcommunity for $100 off!

As winner of The Voice Season 9 in 2020, singer songwriter Chris Sebastian captured the attention and the hearts of Australians nationwide, charming all and sundry with his incredible talent and gracious, likeable nature.  Now he returns with his first new music of 2021 - ‘Hard To Get To Love’, written and produced by esteemed Melbourne based team, M-Squared. Chris explains the premise of the song saying, “Basically it’s just about having many failed attempts at finding ‘true’ love. Feeling burnt out by bad experiences and failures in the past and feeling like no matter what you do, the right person, the right relationship is always just out of reach. Asking yourself, why is it so hard? Why do I always miss it?” CONNECT WITH CHRiS Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/chrisebastian/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/chrissebastianofficial YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/chrissebastiantv Website - https://www.chrissebastian.com.au/#music  Follow The Story Box on Social MediaINSTAGRAM ► - https://www.instagram.com/thestoryboxpodcast/ TWITTER ► - https://twitter.com/jay_fantom FACEBOOK ► - https://www.facebook.com/thestoryboxpodcast WEBSITE ► - https://thestoryboxpodcast.com/SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE! Apple Podcast ► - https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-story-box/id1486295252 Spotify ► - https://open.spotify.com/show/7h8Qv3r2ZV29f7ktJOwmgM?si=FXxYC1JFSHesBv7_d1WtNQ WATCH HERE:YouTube ► - https://www.youtube.com/c/TheStoryBox If you enjoyed this episode please subscribe to YouTube & Apple Podcasts, and leave a 5-star positive rating and review over on Apple Podcasts.

S1 Ep 228Savannah Welch Unboxing | How To Understand & Adapt To Change

ALL HEART MULTI-HYPHENATEActor/Musician Savannah Welch is known for her acting roles in the HBO Max series TITANS, Oscar nominated film BOYHOOD directed by Richard Linklater; TREE OF LIFE starring Brad Pitt and Jessica Chastain; and a recurring guest starring role as ex-Marine Dawn on the History Channel’s SIX…among a colorful portfolio of independent films, in which Welch often deep dives into characters informed by varying degrees of music.​Growing up in Nashville, she was submerged in the southern culture of the country music industry, raised by her beautiful Okie folks who miraculously evolved into progressive hippies of the 80’s variety. The landscape was a terrain of spiritual sculpture and creative inspiration with permission to follow it; yet, the level of talent and validity existing within this environment scripted intimidation that set a bar too high to start. Most influential were the musicians and songwriters including her acclaimed father, Kevin Welch, and prodigious older brother Dustin. Savannah decided that’s what “they” did, and pursued a career in film production and acting…all the while, playing and writing songs when no one was looking. She co-wrote many songs that have been cut on other artists’ records, including the title track on the Bruce Robison and Kelly Willis’ Americana Music Awards album of the year nominated, Cheater’s Game, I Had To Give That Up Too recorded by Sammy Kershaw, and is the recipient of several SESAC Awards. Eventually, performing caught up to her and she became one of the founding members of the Texas/Tennessee collaborative girl group, The Trishas.​Savannah has always been passionate about parenting, long before she had her son. She trained to become a birth doula, and an accredited Attached At The Heart Parent educator in 2014.Connect with Savannah: Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/savannahwelch/?hl=en Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/vanrosewelch Twitter - https://twitter.com/vanrosewelch Website - https://www.savannahwelch.com/  Follow The Story Box on Social MediaINSTAGRAM ► - https://www.instagram.com/thestoryboxpodcast/ TWITTER ► - https://twitter.com/jay_fantom FACEBOOK ► - https://www.facebook.com/thestoryboxpodcast WEBSITE ► - https://thestoryboxpodcast.com/SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE! Apple Podcast ► - https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-story-box/id1486295252 Spotify ► - https://open.spotify.com/show/7h8Qv3r2ZV29f7ktJOwmgM?si=FXxYC1JFSHesBv7_d1WtNQ WATCH HERE:YouTube ► - https://www.youtube.com/c/TheStoryBox If you enjoyed this episode please subscribe to YouTube & Apple Podcasts, and leave a 5-star positive rating and review over on Apple Podcasts.

S1 Ep 227Stevie & Sazan Hendrix Unboxing | Why You Should Lean Into The Unknown Moments & Scary Times of Life

"I started my blogging journey in 2011 while studying Radio, Television and Film at The University of North Texas. At the time, I knew little to nothing about the blogging world, how it worked, and if it was something I was ready to constantly manage. What kept me going was the thrill of not knowing. I recognized the challenge of starting my own blog as an exciting (but scary!) opportunity, and decided to go for it.. . After countless hours of blog research, “How-to HTML Code” Youtube videos, begging a family member to take my photos, moving to a new city (Los Angeles), and 300 blog posts later – a digital dream was born. I can’t express enough how the journey of becoming a so-called digital influencer has required more than just learning how to take a pretty picture. It’s a business very few understand. To give you some scoop into my world – my day starts at 7 am and it ends around 6pm (if I’m lucky!) On a daily basis, I spend a lot of my time answering emails, crunching numbers, scheduling blog and social media posts, meeting with brands, styling outfits, shooting content (aka chasing golden hour lighting!), editing videos..the list goes on. It’s not always pretty and it’s not as easy as it might look. Thank God for wine on those hard-to-get-through days. Offline, my biggest dream came true when I married my college sweetheart in May 2015. It’s been a new and exciting chapter that has inspired me to be more open about my personal life with my digital world. Stevie has been the MVP behind the scenes of my blog and in my life for years. Very few people knew this. Aside from being my photographer and knowing how to capture my good side (ha!), he has taught me a valuable lesson. When the going gets tough, he reminds me that things don’t have to be perfect. Not everything is an “Instagram moment.” Turn the phone off and be present for the real life moments.It’s incredible what can happen when you let go of the “what ifs” and jump for what you love. I mean this in every way. If I didn’t love my life and what I do, I wouldn’t feel right putting my time into it. In 2014, I decided to launch my Youtube channel to show the quirkier side of Sazan. It’s a side of me that I wanted people to see. The real me! It’s been such a cool experience getting to be the talent, producer, and editor of your own channel. I feel like I’m on a thrill ride and I never want to get off.In December 2016 we launched our subscription company Bless Box, giving subscribers the best in beauty, body, luxury, and style. That was my baby (let’s be real, it still is) until we had our precious daughter, Valentina, in December 2017. Since then, our life has been even more of a whirlwind than it was before! but we wouldn’t have it any other way 🙂 Finally in August 2018, Stevie and I launched our very own podcast, The Good Life. We’ve had amazing support so far from our listeners, and we can’t wait to see where this journey takes us next!Thank you for following along and supporting all of my crazy Sazan moments!"

S1 Ep 224Chazz Palminteri Unboxing | The Saddest Thing In Life Is Wasted Talent

E

Bronx-born and raised Chazz Palminteri was a natural choice to continue the Italianate torch in film. In the tradition set forth in the 1970s by such icons as director Martin Scorsese and actors Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, John Cazale, and Joe Pesci, Palminteri has brought grit, muscle, and an evocative realism to the sidewalks of his New York neighborhood, violent as they are and were. Chazz was born Calogero Lorenzo Palminteri in 1952 in the Bronx, New York, the son of Rose, a homemaker, and Lorenzo Palminteri, a bus driver. He grew up in a tough area of the Bronx, giving him the life lessons that would later prove very useful to his career. He graduated from Theodore Roosevelt High School and started out pursuing his craft in 1973 studying at the Actor's Studio. He appeared off-Broadway in the early 1980s while paying his dues as a bouncer and doorman in nightclubs, among other jobs. In 1986 he headed west and found that his ethnic qualifications were well-suited for getting tough-talker parts. Slick attorneys, unflinching hoods, and hard-nosed cops were all part of his ethnic streetwise persona in such TV shows as Wiseguy (1987), Matlock (1986), and Hill Street Blues (1981). In films, he started off playing a 1930s-style gangster in Sylvester Stallone's Oscar (1991). Although his roles were sharp, well-acted, and with a distinct edge to them, there was nothing in them to show that he was capable of stronger leading parts.In 1988 he wrote for himself a play entitled "A Bronx Tale," a powerful one-man stage commentary in which he depicted his bruising childhood in great detail, which included witnessing gangland slayings. Palminteri brought each and every character to life (18 in all) in this autobiographical piece -- his friends, enemies, even his own family. He showcased for years in both Los Angeles and New York, finally sparking the interest of his film idol, Robert De Niro. DeNiro, wanting to direct for the first time, saw the potential of this project and brought both it and the actor/writer to the screen. Palminteri played one of the flashier roles, Sonny, a gangster, in the movie version. An unknown film commodity at the time, Chazz had stubbornly refused to sell his stage property (the offers went into the seven figures) unless he was part of the package as both actor and screenwriter. DeNiro, who became his mentor, backed him up all the way, and the rest is history. A Bronx Tale (1993), which featured his actress/producer/wife Gianna Palminteri, earned strong reviews.At age 41 Palminteri had become an "overnight" star. Other important projects quickly fell his way. He received a well-deserved Oscar nomination the following year for his portrayal of a Runyonesque hitman in Woody Allen's hilarious jazz-era comedy Bullets Over Broadway (1994). He was on the right side of the law in both The Perez Family (1995), his first romantic lead, and then the classic crimer The Usual Suspects (1995). He played the ill-fated brute in Diabolique (1996) and wrote a second screenplay, Faithful (1996), in which he again plays a hitman, terrorizing both Cher and Ryan O'Neal.Though Palminteri was invariably drawn into a rather tight-fitting, often violent typecast, it has been a secure and flashy one that continues to run strong into the millennium. Surprisingly, the one obvious show he missed out on was HBO's The Sopranos (1999). True to form his trademark flesh-lipped snarl was spotted in gritty urban settings playing a "Hell's Kitchen" cop in One-Eyed King (2001) starring actor/producer Armand Assante; a pool hustler and mentor in Poolhall Junkies (2002); a mob boss in In the Fix (2005); a dirty cop in Running Scared (2006); the titular scam artist as Yonkers Joe (2008); a karaoke-loving Italian psychiatrist in Once More with Feeling (2009); and an abusive husband and father in Mighty Fine (2012).Other millennium filming includes starring presences in Body Armour (2007), The Dukes (2007), the title conman as Yonkers Joe (2008), Once More with Feeling (2009), and Mighty Fine (2012), as well as prime, supports in Running Scared (2006), A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints (2006), Push (2006), Jolene (2008), Once Upon a Time in Queens (2013), Legend (2015), Vault (2019), Clover (2020). TV crime continues to occupy his time as well, clocking in such series' credits as Kojak (2005), Rizzoli & Isles (2010), and Godfather of Harlem (2019). Occasionally he will lighten up -- as in his recurring role as Shorty on the popular sitcom Modern Family (2009).CONNECT WITH CHAZZ & LISTEN TO HIS PODCAST: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chazzpalminteri/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100044149433522 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9-sgcuDI-X9lbYt9PC3Bag Podcast: http://hyperurl.co/ChazzPalminteriShow Website: https://chazzpalminteri.net/pages/podcast  Twitter: https://twitter.com/chazzpalminteri Follow The Story Box on Social MediaINSTAGRAM ► - https://www.insta

S1 Ep 218Yumiko Kadota Unboxing | Emotional Female, Learning To Come Back From Depression, Burnout & Toxic Environments

All Yumiko Kadota ever wanted was to be a surgeon. Young, gifted and dedicated, Yumiko graduated her medical degree with Honours, and was well on her way to becoming an outstanding plastic and reconstructive surgeon. She spent fourteen years studying, working 70+ hour weeks, on call for days at a time, working at numerous hospitals across two states, doing whatever was asked of her – because that’s what was needed to become a doctor. Work life balance was non-existent. In 2018, she quit. Fourteen years of working towards her dream had taken its toll: the mental, physical and emotional strain had brought her to a tipping point. Yumiko had spent years in a world where she needed to stay calm and professional in the face of racism, sexual harassment, sexism, chauvinism, discrimination, favouritism, ageism. A world enshrouded by a professional code of silence. Where the pressures and stresses of heavy workloads drove people to suicide. Where people were afraid to report inappropriate behaviour. Where Yumiko fantasised about the level of injury required for her to be exempt from performing surgery. Emotional Female is Yumiko’s story. Her experience in the Australian medical system, the challenges she faced and the change she wants to see. This is also her story of recovery; it took her months to recover and reset. This is a story of self-worth, and having the courage to walk away from a toxic environment that affected her mental and physical health immensely.Connect with Yumiko & Get Her Book: Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/mindbodymiko/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/mindbodymiko/Twitter - https://twitter.com/mindbodymikoWebsite - https://mindbodymiko.com/Her book: https://www.booktopia.com.au/emotional-female-yumiko-kadota/book/9781760894627.html?irclickid=QtURAMVhexyLRh70W2SX%3Awd2UkBU0ix1bUWTyo0&bk_source=2551159&bk_source_id=2551159&irgwc=1&utm_campaign=Yumiko%20Kadota&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=Impact https://www.amazon.com.au/Emotional-Female-Yumiko-Kadota/dp/1760894621 Follow The Story Box on Social MediaINSTAGRAM ► - https://www.instagram.com/thestoryboxpodcast/ TWITTER ► - https://twitter.com/jay_fantom FACEBOOK ► - https://www.facebook.com/thestoryboxpodcast WEBSITE ► - https://thestoryboxpodcast.com/SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE! Apple Podcast ► - https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-story-box/id1486295252 Spotify ► - https://open.spotify.com/show/7h8Qv3r2ZV29f7ktJOwmgM?si=FXxYC1JFSHesBv7_d1WtNQ WATCH HERE:YouTube ► - https://www.youtube.com/c/TheStoryBox If you enjoyed this episode please subscribe to YouTube & Apple Podcasts, and leave a 5-star positive rating and review over on Apple Podcasts.

S1 Ep 202Jerry Jenkins Unboxing | Writing The Chosen, Listening To God's Calling & Don't Get Left Behind

Jerry Jenkins is the author of nearly 200 books with sales of more than 71 million copies, including the bestselling Left Behind series.I Was Once Unknown and UnpublishedIf you know my work, it's probably because of Left Behind, my New York Times bestselling novel series. But actually I've written more than 190 across several genres (including biographies of several famous people), and my writing has also appeared in magazines like TIME, Reader's Digest, Parade, and many others.But it wasn't always this way. I started where most writers do — unknown and unpublished. I wrote my first several books on a manual typewriter that sat on a board suspended between two chairs. I learned early that there are no shortcuts to publishing success.When I was a teenager, an author I admired took an hour to advise me, and I vowed that if I ever succeeded, I'd pay forward that kindness.That's why I'm here. I believe that with basic skills and proper guidance, you can learn to create prose that entertains, touches hearts, and has the potential to impact lives all over the world. That happened for me, a small-town Midwestern kid, so why not you?JERRY JENKINS is the writer of the blockbuster New York Times bestselling Left Behind series that included 16 books and sold over 70 MILLION copies worldwide and several movie adaptations.and Jerry's his new novel The Chosen: I Have Called You By Name (based on the series written/directed by Jerry's son - Dallas)Connect with Jerry Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/jerrybjenkins/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/jerry.b.jenkins/Twitter - https://twitter.com/JerryBJenkinsAll things Jerry - https://jerryjenkins.com/about/Follow The Story Box on Social MediaINSTAGRAM ► - https://www.instagram.com/thestoryboxpodcast/ TWITTER ► - https://twitter.com/jay_fantom FACEBOOK ► - https://www.facebook.com/thestoryboxpodcast WEBSITE ► - https://thestoryboxpodcast.com/SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE! Apple Podcast ► - https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-story-box/id1486295252 Spotify ► - https://open.spotify.com/show/7h8Qv3r2ZV29f7ktJOwmgM?si=FXxYC1JFSHesBv7_d1WtNQ WATCH HERE:YouTube ► - https://www.youtube.com/c/TheStoryBox If you enjoyed this episode please subscribe to YouTube & Apple Podcasts, and leave a 5-star positive rating and review over on Apple Podcasts.

S1 Ep 198Dr Ethan Kross Unboxing | Chatter: How To Harness Those Voices In Our Heads

About Ethan KrossAUTHOR, SCIENTIST, TEACHEREthan Kross is one of the world’s leading experts on controlling the conscious mind. An award-winning professor and bestselling author in the University of Michigan’s top ranked Psychology Department and its Ross School of Business, he studies how the conversations people have with themselves impact their health, performance, decisions and relationships.Ethan was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. He attended the University of Pennsylvania, where he was elected to Phi Beta Kappa and graduated magna cum laude. After earning his PhD in Psychology from Columbia University, Ethan completed a post-doctoral fellowship in social-affective neuroscience to learn about the neural systems that support self-control. He moved to the University of Michigan in 2008, where he founded the Emotion & Self Control Laboratory.Ethan’s research has been published in Science, The New England Journal of Medicine, and The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, among other peer-reviewed journals. He has participated in policy discussion at the White House and has been interviewed on CBS Evening News, Good Morning America, Anderson Cooper Full Circle, and NPR’s Morning Edition. His pioneering research has been featured in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The New Yorker, Harvard Business Review, USA Today, The Economist, The Atlantic, Forbes, and Time.Ethan is the author the National Bestseller CHATTER: The Voice in Our Head, Why it Matters and How to Harness It, which was chosen as one of the best new books of the year by the Washington Post, CNN and USA Today and the Winning Winter 2021 selection for Malcolm Gladwell, Adam Grant, Susan Cain and Dan Pink’s Next Big Idea Book Club. CHATTER is scheduled to be translated into over 35 languages. Ethan lives in Ann Arbor with his wife and two daughters.CHATTER: An award-winning psychologist reveals the hidden power of our inner voice and shows how we can harness it to live a healthier, more satisfying, and more productive life.Tell a stranger that you talk to yourself, and you’re likely to get written off as eccentric. But the truth is that we all have a voice in our head. When we talk to ourselves, we often hope to tap into our inner coach but find our inner critic instead. When we’re facing a tough task, our inner coach can buoy us up: Focus—you can do this. But, just as often, our inner critic sinks us entirely: I’m going to fail. They’ll all laugh at me. What’s the use?In Chatter, acclaimed psychologist Ethan Kross explores the silent conversations we have with ourselves. Interweaving groundbreaking behavioral and brain research from his own lab with real-world case studies—from a pitcher who forgets how to pitch, to a Harvard undergrad negotiating her double life as a spy—Kross explains how these conversations shape our lives, work, and relationships. He warns that giving in to negative and disorienting self-talk—what he calls “chatter”—can tank our health, sink our moods, strain our social connections, and cause us to fold under pressure.But the good news is that we’re already equipped with the tools we need to make our inner voice work in our favor. These tools are often hidden in plain sight—in the words we use to think about ourselves, the technologies we embrace, the diaries we keep in our drawers, the conversations we have with our loved ones, and the cultures we create in our schools and workplaces.Brilliantly argued, expertly researched, and filled with compelling stories, Chatter gives us the power to change the most important conversation we have each day: the one we have with ourselves.Connect with Ethan Kross & Buy his new book: Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ethankross/Twitter - https://twitter.com/ethan_krossBuy his new book here: https://www.ethankross.com/chatter/Do The Chatter Quiz: I got 4 right haha https://www.ethankross.com/chatter/quiz/ Follow The Story Box on Social MediaINSTAGRAM ► - https://www.instagram.com/thestoryboxpodcast/ TWITTER ► - https://twitter.com/jay_fantom FACEBOOK ► - https://www.facebook.com/thestoryboxpodcast WEBSITE ► - https://thestoryboxpodcast.com/SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE! Apple Podcast ► - https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-story-box/id1486295252 Spotify ► - https://open.spotify.com/show/7h8Qv3r2ZV29f7ktJOwmgM?si=FXxYC1JFSHesBv7_d1WtNQ WATCH HERE:YouTube ► - https://www.youtube.com/c/TheStoryBox If you enjoyed this episode please subscribe to YouTube & Apple Podcasts, and leave a 5-star positive rating and review over on Apple Podcasts.
