  • A glamorous international television and movie star fluent in four languages, the actress and model Leonor Varela has enjoyed a career spanning decades working with the likes of Leonardo Di Caprio, Patrick Dempsey, Ashton Kutcher, Wesley Snipes, Timothy Dalton, Quentin Tarantino and Guillermo Del Toro. Perhaps it was being born in Chile during the brutal regime of ruthless dictator Augusto Pinochet and having to flee the country with her family as just a girl that helped her instinctively turn down infamous Hollywood sexual predator Harvey Weinstein's offer to audition for a movie role in his hotel room. Leonor and Vivica discuss the aftermath of that fateful decision, her becoming an influential activist working tirelessly to end whale hunting and to save our environment and suffering every parent’s nightmare in losing her beloved son Matteo to leukodystrophy at the age of 5. To help other parents struggling with loss, she wrote a powerful book about her experiences called Go to Heaven and Back: My Way with Matteo. Leonor believes we are never truly separated from the ones we love, and she's here with Vivica to share her secret to a long, successful career and deep and lasting relationships with our loved ones.

  • Vivica speaks with NFL legend Ray Lewis about his time at the University of Miami, his visionary conversations with Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, being drafted by the Baltimore Ravens, his signature pre-game dance inspired by a military veteran, and the key to his powerful leadership strategies. Ray Lewis is one of the rarest people on Earth. He is the best player at his position in over one hundred years of NFL history, and he is arguably the best leader ever to be associated with team sports. He was drafted by a franchise that had forgotten how to succeed and quickly taught his team from ownership to the front office to the lowliest rookies how to take responsibility for themselves and each other, and in doing so helped rebuild the fabric of a struggling American city. Ray proved that the world of sports can be a source of profound spiritual excellence.

  • Ed Mylett decided at a very young age he was going to work for himself rather than build someone else’s dream life, and that’s exactly what he did. A promising career as a professional athlete as well in hand when an injury forced him to re-evaluate everything his life was about. Starting over... turned out to be Ed Mylett’s greatest strength and unlocked a genius and a passion for finding motivation, confidence, and the seeds of success in life’s darkest corners. They say a hero is someone who finds an answer to a problem. If so, Ed Mylett is a born hero. Today he is one of the premier business leaders, peak performance experts, and motivational speakers in the world with a passion for mentoring and coaching others to become a champion in all areas of life. He is a best-selling author, host of the top-rated Max Out Your Life Podcast, and speaks all over the world. If you want to learn how to become the next, best version of yourself download and listen now.
    Ed decided from a very young age that since he would have to work in life, he might as well work for himself and call his own shots. He realized right away that he was not going to spend his life working for someone else and building their dreams. His wife Kristianna, who had been his sweetheart since they were teenagers, shared that same vision of life.
    Their initial dream was for Ed to play major league baseball, but an injury sidelined any chance he had for a professional athletic career. After putting in countless hours of practice and hard work into baseball for so many years, he wasn't sure what to do next with his life.
    After several job changes, he came across an exciting, entrepreneurial opportunity in the financial services industry with the World Financial Group. During their early years in the business, he and Kristianna faced a number of challenges.
    While Ed has always been more concerned with dreaming big and working hard, Kristianna focuses on establishing financial and family security. He finally convinced her that if she would let him work really hard for three to five years, they would have the next 50-60 years to do whatever they wanted to do. Then finally, his consistent dreaming and effort paid off and his business grew and thrived into a nationwide team of associates, which has turned out some of the most inspirational and successful leaders in the industry. Ed and Kristianna went from being a typical young couple struggling financially, to becoming millionaires while still only in their 30's.
    Today, Ed is one of the premier business leaders, peak performance experts, and motivational speakers in the world. He has a passion for mentoring and coaching others on what it takes to become a champion in all areas of life. He is the best-selling author, host of the top-rated Max Out Your Life Podcast (https://www.edmylett.com/podcasts), and speaks all over the world. For more information: https://www.edmylett.com
