Art Costello - Mastering Your Expectations with Expectation Therapy
Friday Mar 29, 2019
Friday Mar 29, 2019
Ep #111 - Today, I welcome Art Costello as my guest on the show. Art is an author and entrepreneur with a unique background as he served as a marine in Vietnam, played college and professional baseball, earned a degree in psychology, and has now created a personal development modality known as expectation therapy. He's virtually done it all and he still has plenty left in the tank.
Art created expectation therapy which is a technique to achieve self mastery by letting go of expectations. Expectation Therapy works to transform how you and the world communicate, perceive, and process expectations. It aims to teach you that your expectations can transform your life for the better. It’s not what others expect of you that really matters, it’s how you react to your own self-expectations that have been developed throughout your years that count the most.

Jay Gabrani - How a Father Comes Back From Loss
Monday Mar 11, 2019
Monday Mar 11, 2019
Ep #107 - What would happen to your family if you passed away suddenly? In today's epsiode, I sit down with Jay Gabrani, founder of Prepared Fathers, to discuss this exact question.
After Jay's first child was born in 2005, he jumped into the world of real estate investing. Despite several challenges along the way, Jay built a multiple seven-figure real estate portfolio. That portfolio helped him take a multi-year sabbatical to deal with heartbreaking personal tragedy when his wife passed away in 2014.
This experience lead Jay to reevaluate the purpose of his life while taking a multi year sabbatical. Before his wife passed away, Jay thought he was financially prepared. After going through the experience of being the executor of his wife's estate, he realized he wasn't.
Today, Jay makes an impact raising his three children and empowering Fathers to secure their Family's Financial Future as the founder of Prepared Fathers.
He achieves this through his one-on-one and group coaching programs and his daily podcast A Minute with Jay. He is a frequent podcast guest and does a limited number of speaking engagements.
