Martin shares his incredible journey—from a successful career as a pilot to taking a leap of faith into the personal development space, despite the risks and doubts from those around him. Throughout the conversation, Martin dives into the core principles of his PIGG framework—Passion, Intention, Gratitude, and Grace —as a foundation for living a fulfilled and purpose-driven life. He opens up about the challenges he's faced, including the loss of his parents, financial struggles, and personal betrayals, yet explains how he has continuously found the strength to push forward by maintaining faith in himself and the greater energy that guides us all. Listeners will be inspired by Martin’s transformational fitness journey , his shift into executive coaching and speaking , and his insights into recognizing "God Winks"—seemingly random but divinely orchestrated moments that help guide us toward our true calling.

How to cultivate a mindset of gratitude, even in the face of adversity. The importance of surrounding yourself with the right people —those who lift you up rather than drag you down. How to discern a true calling or “God Wink” from fleeting thoughts or self-doubt. Why your passion, when pursued with intention, will either become your purpose or lead you to it.

Navigating the Evolving Music Industry: Wisdom from Eric McCain's Decades-Long Career 27:58

Jared Easley interviewed Eric McCain, an accomplished musician, percussionist, and studio musician on the Starve the Doubts podcast. Some key points from the discussion: - Eric shared his background, growing up related to the Pointer Sisters, getting his start in music through marching band, and being mentored by influential music teacher Reggie Andrews. This exposed him to jazz and inspired him to learn percussion. - He has traveled the world performing at iconic venues like Carnegie Hall and the Sydney Opera House. Eric has also worked with many famous artists, such as Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, and Denzel Washington, though often in the studio rather than directly. - Eric performed percussion on the original Lion King animated film and the Broadway musical for many years. - He emphasized the importance of constantly reinventing yourself and being open to learning new things at any age. This motivated his interest in podcasting and attending this podcast conference. - When asked for recommendations on experiencing the real LA music scene, Eric suggested checking out smaller clubs in the arts district downtown, referenced in the LA Weekly. - He discussed how much the music industry and recording technology have evolved over his career, from 4-track tapes to digital. While it is easier now, he feels the abundance of music has reduced some modern music's overall quality and artistry. - Eric advised aspiring musicians to learn piano fundamentals and music theory as a foundation. Success takes hard work and homework, not overnight stardom. - He is launching his podcast, Eric McCain Live, in late April 2024, interviewing musicians. - Eric closed by encouraging listeners to prioritize their health above all else. The interview painted Eric as a passionate, accomplished musician eager to share his experience and wisdom with others through his upcoming podcast.

While there he began another church to serve the refugee community. Joshua's arrival in America brings new challenges, new opportunities, and a family he never anticipated.
