What if you woke up one day with unexplainable anxiety, severe fatigue and exhaustion, and your hair was falling out, yet your doctor insists you’re perfectly fine? It sounds like a nightmare, but it was reality for Robyn Engelson, CEO of ImpactYOU. Robyn shares her personal triumph over Hashimoto’s disease, a battle she fought and won against the odds. Her journey from diagnosis, through the struggle and her ultimate recovery is enlightening and inspiring, sending a clear message to all: don’t just survive, advocate for yourself, challenge your doctor when things don’t add up, and transform your health through shifts in mindset.

Robyn’s firsthand experience with Hashimoto’s Disease sheds light on the broad spectrum of autoimmune diseases, their symptoms, triggers, and often overlooked diagnosis. She shares the painful episodes of waking up with confusing symptoms and little help from traditional physicians, the realization of her condition and the importance of asking the right questions. The discussion ventures into different dimensions from understanding the role of vitamin D deficiency in autoimmune disorders, the benefits in reducing inflammation, to her approach towards positive parenting.

The conversation takes an invigorating turn as Robyn explains how maintaining a healthy diet while traveling is possible, by understanding nutrition through food freedom. We explore her transition from personal education to establishing her own business, the four pillars of her solution for autoimmune diseases – nutrition, fitness, mindset, and accountability, and the importance of maintaining intentionality in routines and habits. Robyn’s story exemplifies that with the right mindset and education you can indeed be your own best advocate and find the solution to your health journey. Listen in, be inspired, informed, and empowered!

Ever met an individual who embodies the phrase “rising from adversity”?

My guest, Kofi Douhadji, is that person. Kofi’s journey from a small village in Togo, Africa, to becoming a serial entrepreneur, author, coach, United States Air Force officer, husband, and father is a powerful testament to the human spirit. In a world obsessed with materialistic success, Kofi’s story of finding inspiration in scarcity is a breath of fresh air. His unique perspective invites us all to view our challenges not as obstacles, but as stepping stones to greatness.

Kofi’s talent for storytelling is the golden thread running through his narrative. Whether it’s turning lessons into stories or using storytelling as a coping mechanism, Kofi has harnessed the power of storytelling to overcome, transcend, and inspire. But storytelling isn’t just about captivating an audience; it’s about creating bonds, fostering shared humanity, and driving us towards our goals. In Kofi’s words, the stories we tell ourselves have the potential to either hold us back or show us what is possible.

But the real gem of our conversation is perhaps the concept of a ‘life constitution’. Kofi shares how Stephen Covey’s ‘Seven Habits of Highly Successful People’ inspired his own ‘Kofi constitution’, which guides his life decisions. Diving deeper into this idea, we also explore the transformative power of meaningful conversations and the importance of a supportive community. Finally, we delve into Kofi’s venture, Flying Wings Publishing, a testament to the power of storytelling, meaningful conversations, and impactful connections. A thread that runs throughout our conversation is Kofi’s emphasis on intentional growth and harmony, reminding us that self-improvement is a journey, not a destination.

So, buckle up for an inspiring journey that promises to kindle the fires of greatness within you.
