David Hamilton is the founder and CEO of Everlution, a premiere coaching program designed to help you take your life to the next level. David focuses on manipulating your perception and thinking patterns to live a more fulfilling, connected and present life.

A key realization in every man’s life is that his reality is based almost entirely out of his thoughts and his state of “being.” Nothing that happens to you, good or bad, truly affects you until you make it so in your mind.

One of the traps many people fall into is associating too strongly with anyone one group, idea or characteristic. It is very easy to base our identity out of our experiences, religious and political beliefs and goals, instead of realizing that our identity is us, and we are evolving constantly.

The truth is, fulfillment comes from within, nothing external will give it to you. Learn to accept and embrace this and work on building an inner world that can flow and adapt with the changing environment yet remain completely fulfilled.

David struggled with shyness and social anxiety to the point where it interfered his life and self-confidence so much that it was a constant source of pain and frustration.

Now that David has cracked the code and overcome it to create the life he wants, he has since become a “social introvert” and has learned from the inside-out how to be confident and connect with people in many different types of social situations. David now helps others do the same, so they can have more success in their profession, make more money, have better relationships with friends, family and the opposite sex.

At the beginning of 2014, Geoff heard Jim Rohns quote, “you are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with." This was a quote that would transform his life!

Since then, Geoff has focused on surrounding himself with people who are where he wants to be in 10-15 years, and what a difference it has made!

Geoff is so grateful for the inspiring mentors that are guiding him and he wanted to “pay it forward” by exposing other like-minded people to their message.  That's why he launched The Mentee Podcast…to document his journey From Employee to Entrepreneur and the mentors who are guiding him.

Since birth Dan Waldschmidt has been refusing to accept business as usual.

Sure, he had a lawn mowing business at 12, but he turned his into a money-making machine (though he opted not to tell his mom about his increased profits).

He ran track like plenty of other kids, but he pushed himself to break his high school’s mile record. He got the usual entry-level job right out of college, but then he changed the sales process, earned millions of dollars for the company, and became CEO by the time he was 25.

These days, Dan is a business strategist. A popular speaker. And an ultra-runner.

Dan and his team help companies all over the world arrive at business-changing breakthrough ideas by moving past outdated conventional wisdom, social peer pressure, and the selfish behaviors that stop them from being high performers.

The Wall Street Journal calls his blog, Edgy Conversations, one of the Top 7 sales blogs anywhere on the internet. He’s been profiled in Business Week, INC Magazine, Business Insider, and on dozens of radio programs. Hundreds of his articles on unconventional business strategy have been published.

If you want to catch up with Dan, you’ll probably need to lace up some running shoes and hit the road. He’s the crazy dude running against traffic. In the meanwhile, read his blog, send him an email, ask him for help.

Whatever you do, don’t just do nothing.

Carrie Birgbauer, MA, has been an educator for 20 years and is also a certified money coach. As a former kindergarten master teacher, chief of staff, college tennis player and yoga instructor, she’s one of the most worldly people you’ll ever meet.

Carrie is an authority on the law of attraction, multiple intelligences, learning styles and personality types. At the age of 30, Carrie realized she had never balanced a checkbook, stuck to a budget or been able to sustain savings.

She thought that financial freedom meant “swiping the card!” So began her quest for a financial education. She read innumerable books, tried Quicken, Mint, traditional financial therapy and even designed her own financial tracking software to no avail.

At a friend’s suggestion, Carrie hired a money coach and, finally, found what she had been looking for. For the first time in her life, Carrie had access to essential financial tools, distinctions and awareness as well as an accountability partner to help her look at the emotional side and psychology of money.

The effects were so profound and inspiring that Carrie completed the intensive financial counselor training program at the Financial Recovery Institute and started her own holistic money coaching practice.
