On today's episode Seth speaks to Jonathan George, “The Human Hitmaker,” Speaker, Entrepreneur, and Coach about Transforming leaders from ordinary to RockStar status.

Jonathan George is known as “The Human Hitmaker” because of his ability to see people’s untapped

potential, his methods to pull that potential to the surface, and his ability to cultivate it into greatness.

As CEO of JG Entertainment, he has been coaching, branding and launching RockStars in the

entertainment world for 20+ years, as well as creating RockStar brands for top influencers and

entrepreneurs.

Now as the creator of the Unleash Your Rockstar movement, he transforms our future leaders and

entrepreneurs from ordinary... to RockStar status so that they can reach their highest level of impact,

influence, and success.

As the CEO of JG Entertainment, Jonathan George has spent the past two decades coaching,

branding, and launching some of the biggest young ROCKSTARS in the entertainment industry, as

well as creating Rockstar brands for top influencers and entrepreneurs. During those years, he has

witnessed the lack of self-confidence to be the greatest defeater of people walking in their greatness.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a C-level executive or a solopreneur, you must have unshakeable confidence

to rock the world with influence, impact, and success. But fear is the #1 thing holding you back --

the fear of not knowing your true talents or how to use those gifts, not knowing how to stand out

in the world authentically, and the fear of not being good enough. This cripples you from being the

successful leader and entrepreneur you desire to be.

Jonathan’s deep passion to help people step into their greatness comes from his own dark struggles

of self-discovery. At age 26, he was named the Grand Champion Winner on Ed McMahon’s “Next Big

Star.” His dreams were coming true as a brand-new record deal slid across the table... and then they

discovered he was gay. He was left with no deal, no direction, and his dreams shattered.

Despite his team’s efforts to change him into who everyone else thought he should be, all Jonathan

heard was: “You’re. Not. Good. Enough.” He had already endured a lifetime of bullying for not being a

“sports” kid, and as the son of a preacher, he was told that he could never fulfill his life’s purpose. He

didn’t know who he was or how to show up in the world. He truly felt he wasn’t good enough. That’s

when he vowed to become the kind of coach he so badly needed in his own life: not someone who

wanted to CHANGE him, but someone to help him ROCK the person he already was.

His success in creating superstars comes from his core belief:

“There is a RockStar already in you. It just needs the tools and permission to be unleashed.”

On today's episode Seth speaks to Brian D. Ridgway , "The Spellbreaker" and Founder at Level 5 Transformational Mentoring , about Self-improvement being a booby-trapped and what if there is actually a way to change your life - in all areas, all at once - by finding and shifting the ONE hidden issue creating all of the stuckness?

Coming from an abusive childhood and then living with the outcomes of that on-going pain, the author invested $300,000+, 30+ years and tens of thousands of hours on self-help, personal development and business/money/success courses - as his life grew steadily worse.

Finding himself, homeless, desperate, suicidal and stuck, he experienced an awakening that took him from homeless to living the dream in Hawaii in less than 90 days.

Since that “miracle moment”, he has been able to help thousands around the world to take their first steps into true freedom.

As program after program failed to deliver the promised “full package” of transformation, Brian became as a self-proclaimed Self-Help Junkie - eventually investing over $300,000 and tens of thousands of hours into his desperate quest for a life that “worked”.

After nearly 30 years of intense research into religious, spiritual, self-help and personal development approaches failed to solve his core issues, he abandoned his skepticism and dove into more “alternative” approaches: energy work, Law of Attraction study and experimentation, belief-elimination, binaural brain-wave entrainment, meditation and “higher” spiritual approaches. His inability to find the transformation he was seeking, and the conflicting information in the self-help work led him to deeper and deeper desperation and depression.

At the end of his rope, homeless and suicidal, in early 2011, he experienced his “Miracle Moment”, and went from the idea of Infinite Possibilities to the experience of Infinite Possibilities. In that awakening moment, he was given the teaching that he calls, “The Level 5 Paradigm”.

Brian teaches the Level 5 Paradigm, taking people directly into the experience of Awakening and Liberation. His process includes what he calls “Spellbreaks”; through which he helps people release any undesired experiences - in any areas of life.

Literal miracles and spontaneous healings are regular occurrences when Brian speaks or works with people - in his programs, workshops and live events with private clients and with his audiences, online and off.

His ability to help people experience instant, deep and lasting breakthroughs is bringing him a rapidly expanding global following.

Brian D. Ridgway is known to his clients as “The Spellbreaker”. Although Brian doesn’t refer to himself in these terms, people who have experienced Brian’s work have referred to him as a Spiritual Teacher and Healer.

A Shaman, Speaker and #1 International Best-Selling Author, Brian helps people, mostly entrepreneurs and change-makers to step out of “the illusion of problems” and into the Conscious Creation of the body, health, business, wealth, relationships, life and world of their dreams.

On today's episode, Seth speaks to Garrain Jones , Motivational speaker and transformation coach, about the power of Positive Thinking over 200 times to reinforce the practice in his life. As a former criminal carrying the baggage of a tough upbringing, he created a process to overhaul the mental patterns leading him to bad life decisions and came out the other side a new man. The author of the upcoming book Change Your Mindset, Change Your Life explains the power thought has in rewriting your life story.

A former music industry icon, Garrain Jones is a Transformation Coach and globally recognized speaker. After overcoming homelessness and a life of hardships, his goal is to help others lead amazing lives full of abundance. He speaks to audiences large and small on the power of transformational change. Garrain’s book, Change Your Mindset Change Your Life is pending release.

Where did the idea for Change Your Mindset Change Your Life come from?

GARRAIN: Seven years ago, I was at the lowest point of my life. I had been living out of my car for two and a half years, was six figures in debt, my daughter disowned me for not being present in her life, and my girlfriend broke up with me because I couldn’t seem to get my life together. I didn’t care whether I lived or died. August 2011 at 3:43 am was the night everything changed. All my life, I’ve focused on what I don’t want, and that’s what I kept attracting. But this was the first night I focused on not only what I wanted, but how I wanted to feel. It was my moment of awakening. Crying and screaming at the top of my lungs, I yelled out, “I’m tired of fighting! I want to be happy, healthy, and surrounded by nothing but positive people! I just want to inspire people!” I knew I also wanted to make money, but I wanted that money to represent something that I passionately believe in. I needed a sign. A week later, I was at the gas station with my last $2, and a homeless man walked up to me asking me for money. I told him that he had more money than me, and he replied, “Change your mindset, change your life,” and walked away. It was in that moment, everything I knew in life had changed. I realized that my life was the way that it was because of how I was thinking. If I could change how I was thinking, then my life could change; and that’s precisely what happened.

What does your typical day look like and how do you make it productive?

GARRAIN: I start my day being charged up with life. I spend the first hour mediating, praying, eating healthy, dancing, singing and doing some form of exercise. All of that is my extreme me time that I like to call my “Panda Power Hour.” This has me overflowing and being at my highest self, and that momentum carries me throughout the entire day. I don’t really have a typical day because I am always focused on experiencing new adventures that keep me stimulated. As far as productivity goes, I start off by setting my daily goal. I write a list of things that I need to do so that I experience the momentum of winning, which includes:

– Three primary business milestones

– Three health and fitness goals

– Learn one new thing

– Create one new thing

– Do my best to find a problem I can solve

These activities somehow always seem to drive results.

How do you bring ideas to life?

GARRAIN: I will typically ask a question in either prayer or out loud, and those questions are always answered when I am doing something I love, whether it be running, cycling, swimming, dancing or on my occasional morning walks. As soon as the idea hits me, I stop everything I’m doing and listen. Then I’ll write down whatever I feel in that moment in specific detail. I become hyper-aware of my surroundings, looking for signs on people’s shirts, being aware of the message in a song on the radio, the formation of a cloud, etc. I know all the signs are always around, I just make myself available enough to receive them.

On today's episode, Seth speaks to Paul Deloughery , a Scottsdale, Arizona estate planning attorney about finding the real-world solutions to real-world problems. He advocates on behalf of families and helps with all their estate planning needs!

Paul is the Founder and Senior Attorney at Paul Deloughery Asset Protection, PLC. He was first admitted to practice law in 1998 and since 2001 has focused on estate planning and probate issues, with a strong emphasis on blended families. He graduated with honors from the University of Iowa College of Law in 1996, and was a partner in a home-health agency just before beginning law practice. This home-health experience gave him a lot of insight into family dynamics and the need for precise estate plans.

Paul sees through complex issues and comes up with enforceable strategies to resolve his clients’ problems. His own experiences have helped him understand the issues others have. He knows the pain that family disputes and litigation can cause, and will do his best to counsel families ahead of time to ensure families don’t go through similar situations.

He knows firsthand the long-term impact of family chaos. His father died when Paul was 16, and his mother barely escaped bankruptcy. In 2003, when Paul was 35 years old, he discovered that his father had actually been his stepfather, and he had never met his biological father. Paul finally met his biological father in 2009, six weeks before his death. When Paul’s biological father passed away, Paul inherited a large sum of money. Unfortunately, his father did not have an estate plan so Paul was left with a mess of taxes and legal issues which could have been avoided if the proper steps would have been taken before his father’s death.

Paul’s complex personal history has given him a unique perspective on life and the challenges of this human experience. This outlook has led him to a deep understanding of human psychology and the conflicting family dynamics that underlie legal issues.
