Michael is unstoppable, passionate, and focused on bringing his vision to fruition. Entrepreneurs, like Michael, often struggle with time management and fear, but their drive and tenacity can overcome these challenges. Travis, Carol, and Michale talk about defined personalities, movers, shakers, provers, and makers. Shakers are idea-people who have nonstop ideas, while shakers work with the prover, who sees the holes in their vision and works to fill them. The tenacity and determination of a Titan can help them overcome obstacles and achieve their goals.Highlights:{06:37} How Michael moved to Poland.{09:51} Starting a company in Poland.{15:40} Getting Max BAH after the military.{24:37} What Makes Michael a Titan?{35:51} Michael’s past {49:10} What people don’t know about Michael.{13:09} Advice for the person struggling.Michael Klepacz Bio:Born and raised in the heart of Toledo, Ohio, Michael roots lie within a small Polish community, where my blue-collar upbringing and humble beginnings instilled in me the values of hard work and honest living. His parents, who tirelessly juggled multiple jobs, demonstrated that perseverance could provide a comfortable life. While their aspirations remained modest, he developed a vision for a greater future for his wife and our vivacious 3-year-old daughter.Michael’s passion for learning and exploration was ignited when he joined the Air Force at 18, after completing Aviation Maintenance school. Though he didn’t get to see the world as he had hoped, his experience in an MLM taught him to embrace learning, fueling my curiosity for life. Though he was medically discharged from the Air Force due to injury that did not stop my ambitions in the Air Force before leaving. Michael had the privilege to be trained in Six Sigma by the Toyota Corporation. Project/process management at that moment became a life interest.Post-Air Force, a gap year turned into an unexpected adventure, as he became a lifeguard supervisor at a renowned amusement park and later found myself teaching English in Poland. His journey overseas transformed his perspective on health and well-being, as he became increasingly fascinated by soil health, sustainability, and agriculture. His newfound passion for sustainable agriculture led him to Permaculture. This completely changed his life and the way he viewed the world. Being in line with nature was now his life mission.Upon returning to the US, he delved into college textbooks and podcasts while working as a security guard. An acceptance into UCLA’s Entrepreneurship Bootcamp for Veterans with Disabilities redefined his life’s trajectory and invigorated his entrepreneurial spirit. This led to pursuing a business degree at a top Financial Times-ranked business school in Poland. While at university he saved up my tuition money and founded Natural Materials Unlimited, a company specializing in designing and manufacturing eco-friendly textile products for clients seeking custom solutions.Connect with Michael:https://www.linkedin.com/in/mikeklepaczhttps://www.naturalmaterials.euhttps://michaelklepacz.comCheck out all of our interviews: https://titanevolutionpodcast.com/blog/Connect with Travis: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nonprofitarchitect/Connect with Carol: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carol-carpenter-8231a466/Sponsored Links:Podcast TITAN: Are you ready to take your podcast to the next level? https://podcasttitan.com/Iron Dog Media specializes in delivering high-quality, complete media solutions. https://irondog.media/Motovixens: Experience the Difference! https://www.motovixens.com/

S1 Ep 50Dress for the Slide not for the Ride with Lucy Blondel

E

Lucy, a veterinary doctor, has battled a mystery disease for a number of years. She saw 55 specialists before finding answers. Women are not taken seriously in healthcare, and it took a long time to find the truth and the solution. Lucy found a very special hobby, riding bikes, that connected her with Carol. An accident left her in the hospital, but it didn’t take long for her to get back to riding. Highlights:{02:35} Going to Veterinary School{05:55} What makes Lucy a Titan{10:35} Dealing with Lyme Disease{22:52} Seeing 55 specialists.{52:51} Advice for people looking for help.Lucy Blondel Bio:Lucy didn't always dream of racing, she dreamed of walking. Of being able to put one foot in front of the other and move in any direction, at any speed. For a period of time, even that seemed impossible for her.In 2012, only two short years after moving to Canada from Scotland, she was diagnosed with Lyme disease. The "great imitator" it's called. The course of my disease mimicked MS, lupus, brain cancer, and chronic fatigue. It left her in excruciating pain, often with paralysis encompassing the left side of her body. She lost the ability to speak normally and often felt like she was having a stroke. After seeing over 50 specialists, including a few in the UK, trialing over 30 different drugs, and being informed it was probably mental (and that she was probably a little crazy) Lucy investigated and eventually treated herself. (She is a veterinary surgeon).As the months went by, she got stronger, but couldn't help but feel like something was missing. Where was the adventure she had dreamed about when she was sick? The excitement? Despite everything she had overcome, she wanted more. And then, 3.5 years ago, she got on a bike. Within minutes I knew it was going to change my life (spoiler: it has). It was instant chemistry and not an ounce of fear. Within 9 months of getting her license, Lucy participated in her first track day. Connect with Lucy:https://www.instagram.com/ride4yrlife Check out all of our interviews: https://titanevolutionpodcast.com/blog/Connect with Travis: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nonprofitarchitect/Connect with Carol: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carol-carpenter-8231a466/Sponsored Links:Podcast TITAN: Are you ready to take your podcast to the next level? https://podcasttitan.com/Iron Dog Media specializes in delivering high-quality, complete media solutions. https://irondog.media/Motovixens: Experience the Difference! https://www.motovixens.com/

E

In today’s interview with Tia Cristy, a former radio personality and blogger with 80,000 subscribers Tia has been nominated for numerous awards, but it was her personal journey of facing death that started her on the Titan journey. Highlights:{04:49) What Makes Tia a Titan?{09:49} Tips from Tia{22:45} New projects for Tia{33:45} How to know when it is time to transition into a new stage of life.{01:06:45} advice for the person struggling right now.Tia Cristy Bio:Tia Cristy has humbly earned the title of Personality and Tips Expert in Lifestyle, Health, and Beauty through radio, television, and print. Growing up, Tia’s wakeup routine became a recurrent morning segment for her, Radio Personality, cousin. She never thought that would lead her down the path of radio, herself, but fate had a plan.With her start in radio, Tia was initially hired to run a studio board. However, after four days and answering a simple question on-air from the morning show host, she was miraculously given her own night show in Atlantic City. That started many adventures over the years, across the country, working in different markets and genres. She was an on-air producer for the #1-rated morning show in Philadelphia. She was also the nighttime host for the top-rated station in Seattle.With over 20 years of experience, Tia has worked with artists and celebrities throughout the years, conducting interviews and announcing headlining artists for sold-out arenas. Tia also has taught radio and production in Washington D.C. for CSB.Tia is a content and ghostwriter who has been under the umbrella of writing her entire life. It started in Elementary school, writing for the class newspaper, to eventually growing up and writing for the County Newspaper. Since the start of her career, specializing in words, she has contributed to newsprint, local magazines, web, scripts, copy, and manuscripts. Tia has received a nod from Clint Eastwood on the screenplay Dark Matter: PTSD.Tia created TipsfromTia.com in 2012 when suffering from a unique condition, Mold Toxicity Poisoning, after moving into a new house. The situation caused an array of horrific symptoms, including severe brain fog. Tia had always had a gift of knowing tips that could help others with things, like getting a stain out of this or how to naturally take care of that. So, when the brain fog started to affect her everyday lifestyle, Tia began to post the tips, hoping it would help preserve her memory. In the process, Tia resumed education by getting her Boards in Nutrition, granting her the title, Tips Expert.Millions go undiagnosed with Mold Toxicity Poisoning because the symptoms can range from mild to severe. Plus, it can be extremely tricky to diagnose and difficult to find the source.After a long line of treatments and rehabilitation, Tia returned to healthy as if it were all a bad dream. However, there was a silver lining to the severe condition. By this time, TipsfromTia.com had started to grow in the U.S., U.K., and Australia. Today, Tips from Tia has over a million unique visitors who have received simple, easy tips that can help reduce everyday stress.Tia and Tips from Tia have been featured on podcasts, radio, and television.Connect with Tia:https://tipsfromtia.comCheck out all of our interviews: https://titanevolutionpodcast.com/blog/Connect with Travis: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nonprofitarchitect/Connect with Carol: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carol-carpenter-8231a466/Sponsored Links:Podcast TITAN: Are you ready to take your podcast to the next level? https://podcasttitan.com/Iron Dog Media specializes in delivering high-quality, complete media solutions. https://irondog.media/Motovixens: Experience the Difference! https://www.motovixens.com/

But something was seriously wrong. It took losing it all for her to wake up. What Janet didn’t have was the deep contentment that comes from knowing your true calling. In a breakthrough moment, she realized that what she thought was a selfless sacrifice in looking after her family and chain of businesses was in fact selfishness. Janet had been denying myself and the world my great gift as a teacher – her true calling.A lifetime of studying human nature and my rollercoaster of successes and failures have become the basis for her breakthrough workshops. Janet spent 40 years figuring out my place on the planet and if she can empower others to do the same and save them a decade or two in the process, she has done her job. The 5th Door pathway is a 5-step process-driven personal transformation journey on steroids.
