    348: Why it matters that your “Flavor” is different than Everyone Else.Everyone Else
    Feb 11 2025

    Originally Published December 24, 2021. We're bringing back a fan-favorite episode with Tyler Ornstein! If you're a business owner or entrepreneur, you won't want to miss this lively conversation. Tyler shares what makes him shine, the power of supporting others, and how his own golden pearls of wisdom have shaped his journey—both personally and professionally. And yes, it’s about coffee! Tune in to learn how his innovative product is not only creating job opportunities but also helping people with gut health (and no, we’re not talking about intuition!).

    Tyler Ornstein fell in love with coffee at 14, but his father couldn’t drink it due to stomach issues. In 2006, his father, a bio-chemist, developed a proprietary Z-Roasting system to create acid-free coffee. Given a 2oz. silver bag, Tyler eagerly began selling door-to-door on his bike. His passion turned into Tyler’s Coffee, which now boasts a full warehouse, a dedicated team, 80% annual growth, and distribution in 60–80 independent grocery stores. With over 2 million cups sold, it was even the preferred coffee at the 2008 Academy Awards.

    346: Crush Your Goals and Reach Peak Performance with Rodney Flowers
    Jan 28 2025
    Life is full of challenges and obstacles, but how we respond to them defines our journey. Today, we welcome Rodney Flowers, who shares his incredible story of resilience after being paralyzed on the football field. Through his journey, he discovered powerful life lessons—golden pearls of wisdom—that helped him overcome adversity. His experience was a game changer, and in this episode, we explore how we can transform our own challenges into opportunities for growth and success. Rodney Flowers is a best-selling author, speaker, entrepreneur, thought leader, and resilience trainer. He draws from his remarkable life experience and business expertise to help individuals, teams, and organizations build resilience, achieve their goals, and reach peak performance. The Game Changer Mindset was born in 1993 when Flowers, a promising football player with dreams of the NFL, suffered a devastating injury that left him paralyzed from the neck down. Doctors told him he would never walk again. But Flowers refused to accept that fate. With relentless determination, he pursued his goal to walk again—failure was not an option. Today, he is no longer wheelchair-bound. Since his life-changing injury, Flowers has earned a college degree, an MBA, and built a successful career with the U.S. Department of Defense. Through his Game Changer Mentality resilience training program, he empowers others to overcome obstacles, break through limiting beliefs, and achieve personal and professional success. With passion and expertise, Flowers inspires audiences to take bold action and change the game in their own lives.
