no Boring Stories

Julie is as unique of a personality as the experiences she curates for people. Once you have a conversation with Julie you feel lighter, and like the blocks you were up against simply aren't as big as you thought. Then, she brings in the addition of Psychedelic Medicine (mushrooms, etc) to help you break through all those limiting beliefs and you might just think she's actually magical.  In this conversation for no Boring Stories, Julie and I talk all about what she does as a Psychedelic Guide, and of course we dive into how she got here. I, personally, haven't tried anything like this so I'm coming into this conversation wildly curious (like most of you probably are), and Julie is such a gracious and empowering human, it's easy to jump on board with the value of this practice of using Psychedelics to help liberate you from the anxiety, burnout, and blocks that keep getting in your way.   You're going to love this episode if you like listening to two joyful people honestly talking about something that's kind of 'taboo'. But more than that, you'll feel like you are closer than you think to reaching your breakthroughs. Julie cares so deeply about people being free to express themselves (as you'll hear through her story), and that energy comes through the microphone strongly in this honest and raw conversation.    --- SHARE what stands out about this episode for you on IG, tag @streetsays CONNECT with Julie Cyvonne on IG @juliecyvonne LISTEN to Julie's podcast THE INNER TRIP here

Jim makes complicated ideas clear. As  the go-to expert in all-things Artificial Intelligence, working with some of the highest-achieving entrepreneurs out there, Jim is fearlessly leading the way and helping us navigate the overwhelming options of AI to help you do what you do best.   Here's what I love about this conversation - I go right at Jim (who has been a friend for a long time), challenging the ideas that bug me about using AI for creatives. I ask Jim about integrity, and authenticity, and we go back and forth about how to come to terms with using the many tools available to not replace our creativity, but enhance it.  You're going to love listening to this conversation if you've been hesitant about engaging with AI, especially when it comes to creating new stuff, and keeping up with the narrative that you 'must use AI'...Jim is so good at giving an honest perspective while sharing his infinite wisdom and talking about AI like you've never heard before.  --- SHARE what stands out about this episode for you on IG, tag @streetsays CONNECT with Jim Carter on IG at @jimcarterthethird JOIN Jim's community here

Michelle is the kind of person that has a solution for any problem. It's fascinating to here the confidence she speaks with when it comes to the problems that arise in a business, because well, she's probably been through it and figured it out herself.  Her story to get to the place she is now as a Fractional COO, is a journey of building her own brick and mortar business, getting it to a wildly successful state, and then she pushed herself to the edge deciding it was time to listen to her life and choose a path where she could set the boundaries and help people at a much larger reach.  You're going to love listening to this conversation if you've been wondering when it's time for you to shift gears in your career and try something else, or if you've been looking for some kind of structure / help in your business but don't know where to start.

Amber is the answer to the question, "how can I drive towards my goals while also being present in my life / with my family?" She has built a business on helping people do exactly that, while also relentlessly focusing on doing the same for herself.  What I really love about this conversation with Amber is that it's not about teaching you to do something and then making you feel like you have to add this new method to your already overflowing plate so you can find some peace...her story is about adjusting, adapting, and bringing in what is right for you at the right time with an exceptionally clear strategy that makes it easy to do.  When Amber talked about the "push" of life, its something you'll definitely connect with; its the times of driving forward and making things happen. Then when she talks about the "pull" of life, you'll feel like it's something you haven't had language for yet; its the times when you don't have to generate the energy to make something happen, it seems to unfold before you while you simply have to say yes. And that's why I know you're going to love this chat with Amber!  --- SHARE what stands out about this episode for you on IG, tag @streetsays CONNECT with Amber on IG @amberbibelheimer LISTEN to the Momentum Restart podcast here
