Maddie Igleheart | Missionary for Christ

Faith in Our Future – My Guest, Maddie Igleheart, Dunkin Donut employee and missionary for Christ.
“The great commission is not an option to be considered; it is a command to be obeyed.” ~ H. Taylor
If you only judge the world according to what you see on social media then it would stand to reason that anyone older than 35 would have concerns about the future for the world.  Thankfully, the realm of chaos seen on social media is only a small portion of the worlds population.
A lot of times all it takes to connect with a person is having a genuine conversation and allowing yourself to listen instead of judge.  The older I’ve gotten the more I have come to appreciate the perspectives of people from different ethnicities, backgrounds, and age groups.
I met this week’s guest at a local coffee shop when I was ordering my cup of joe.  It only took a short five minute conversation to realize this young person had a lot of understanding and wisdom.  She shares how growing up as a host family to foster children allowed her to gain a unique appreciation for what she and her family had.  Then as a teenager she took a missions trip to Italy that solidified her desire to live a life of service.
I know that Maddie is going to do some big things in this world and after listening to her testimony you should be left with a renewed hope for generation Z.  With leaders like Maddie guiding the generation coming behind her I know that the future is shining bright and our world is in good hands.

Ashlyn Mueller | Voice of a New Generation

Voice of a New Generation – My Guest, Ashlyn Mueller, EMT with the Army National Guard, gymnastics coach and entrepreneur.
“The only way to discover the limits of the possible is to go beyond them into the impossible.” ~ A. Clarke
I don’t feel like it is a stretch to say that each generation feels like they are the last great generation to be born.  I will admit that I’ve been guilty of making this assumption at some point in my own life.  The fact is, each generation faces their own unique challenges and while some areas may have been more challenging, there are other areas that are more simple.
Some might say that life before cell phones was a better time to be alive and yet other’s may not be able to even imagine what life would be like without a cell phone.  I am convinced that life is as easy or as difficult as we perceive.  It is our own perspective that makes life more or less challenging.  Talented, high quality, innovative people continue to be born every day, and from one generation to the next, there will always be great individuals and not so great individuals which exist.
My goal for this series is to highlight some of those amazing individuals that will surely be game changers in the future.  Ms. Ashlyn shares how growing up doing gymnastics and watching her mother navigate the difficult trials of entrepreneurship gave her a strong foundation to be bold and fearless when she became an adult.  Being in the Army reserves, a gymnastics coach and helping run a brand new business called EMTeas, Ms. Ashlyn is going to not only represent her generation well, she is going to be a true inspiration to young women everywhere.

Downtown Bruno Brown | Memphis and WWE Wrestling Legend

Memphis Wrestling OG – My Guest, Downtown Bruno Brown, Memphis and WWE Wrestling Legend.
“It’s like mama says… It BEEZ that way sometimes.”
*EXPLICIT LANGUAGE*
One of the best things about hosting a podcast is the opportunity to meet amazing and interesting people from all walks of life.  This week’s guest is definitely one in a million.  At the very young age of 14, Mr. Bruno Lauer happened upon a tent at the local fair that had a wrestling match going on.  This immediately peaked Bruno’s interest, but unfortunately it cost extra and he wasn’t allowed in.  By a stroke of luck he was invited to come in if he were willing to break down and clean up things after the matches were done.
Bruno quickly accepted that invitation and there was no way to know at that moment how life transformative that decision would be.  Once the clean-up was over he was invited to load up and go with the team to their next location.  Without a second thought Bruno loaded up and was off to his lifelong adventure.
Bruno shares with my listeners how his hard work landed him with the opportunity to become a manager.  Little would he had known at that time, but that was going to be the thing that would open more doors for him than he could have ever imagined.  When Bruno moved from Hawaii back to Memphis his career got a real shot in the arm when he became Jerry “The King” Lawler’s manager.
Bruno shares how he babysat Dewayne Johnson, AKA “The Rock” and how he travelled with Vince McMahon and eventually became the WWF Women’s Champion…for one day.  The stories were too many to list so you will have to tune in to hear everything.  If you would like to book Bruno for an event you can go to, Downtown Bruno Bookings and Media. If you or someone you know would like to get into wrestling you can go to,  Pro Wrestling Mid-South.

Building a Better You with Ricky Pike: Coach/Owner at All Heart Jiu Jitsu

Building a Better You – My Guest, Ricky Pike, Coach/Owner at All Heart Jiu Jitsu.
“You are always more capable than you realize.”
This week’s guest found himself being drawn toward martial arts at a very early age.  His fascination toward the art of fighting grew as he got older and once he became an adult he decided to fully chase that dream when he happened upon a flyer posted in a breakroom at work.
Ricky started out by training others in the basics, but that quickly transitioned to training others how to compete.  As his skills grew and his coaching was becoming more refined, Ricky realized he had  the knack of connecting with and motivating young people.  This eventually led him to making the decision to open his own gym in 2019 in Senatobia, MS.
Ricky explains how teaching Jiu Jitsu is much more than just teaching some kids how to compete in matches.  Martial Arts give kids confidence, self-discipline, focus, respect and many times it gives his students a purpose.  Learning how to protect yourself is only part of the equation.  Learning how to be the be the best version of yourself is the true gift.
If you live in or around Senatobia, MS and you would like to learn more about how to become a member of All Heart Jiu Jitsu you can go to https://allheartgym.com/ and you can find Ricky on his weekly podcast called Anything is Possible (AIP) on Spotify.

Whitney Lavender: From Bilateral Amputee to Ms. Wheelchair Texas.

Perspective and Persistence – My Guest, Whitney Lavender, From Bilateral Amputee to Ms. Wheelchair Texas.
“The difference between a mountain and a molehill is your perspective.”
It is no secret that some folks are dealt a bad hand in their youth.  When we are born into this world we can’t control who our parents are and how they will treat us.  For some, having a difficult childhood will set them up for eventual failure in life as an adult.  It is common to pass on from one generation to the next, our upbringing and experiences.
However, sometimes that tough childhood is preparing you for the trials and tribulations you will face as an adult.  My guest this week, Ms. Lavender, shares how growing up with an abusive mother conditioned her to be both mentally and physically tough.
Her mother left the family when she was still a kid and when her father was diagnosed with cancer she had to take on the role of the head of the house and got her hardship license to drive at the age of 14.  Caring for her sick father and her younger brother was actually easy in comparison to dealing with her abusive mother.
You will need to tune in to hear how Whitney battles through two abusive husbands, losing her father to cancer after a 16 year battle, and then in 2018 she receives a diagnosis that changes her life forever when she slips down some stairs injuring her leg.  After several months of seeing doctors and getting a myriad of treatments that never helped, she was diagnosed with a very rare disease know as, Complex Regional Pain Syndrome.
If you are looking for  a story that will give hope and inspiration to just keep going, then look no further.  Ms. Whitney is the epitome of never quit, never give up!
