Warning: Some
Realness
Ahead, Mom!
He w as supposed t o
be one she w ould
grow old w it h?
Not the one with his
strong hands around
her throat? .
? pinning her up
against the wall,
collapsing her breath.
She knew this was
the end.
And She Welcom ed It .
Then the pain would
be over.
The wondering, the
fear, the not knowing
would be finished.
Her vision and will
started to fade little bit,
by little bit, with each
passing second his
angry hands stood
clasped around her
throat.
He was the one she
gave her heart to?
HEAD DREAMER'S NOTE
War Has Been Declared On Stress! You With Me?
Vowed her soul &
marriage over to. It felt
like so many lifetimes
ago now.
This wasn?t the man
she married. This was a
monster that drank
and then took out his
anger on her.
She wanted to leave
him but was scared.
She w ant ed t o t ake
t heir daught er and
go,
? but she didn?t know
where and she was
afraid to be alone.
She remained
hopeful that he would
change.
This night was the
worst.
On this night she said
something he REALLY
didn?t like and beat her
more than ever before.

This was how her life
was going to end. He
had her pressed up
against the wall,
stealing her life into his
hands.
She couldn?t
breath? and she didn?t
care.
At least this way she
wouldn?t have to live in
constant fear and
horror.
Just t hen one w ord
sliced t hrough all t he
pain, all t he
confusion?
? . Cut razor sharp
through all the
acceptance of her
oncoming death.
?Mommy???
That word belonged
to a voice?
? a sweet voice.
The sweetest voice
she?s ever heard.
That voice belonged
to her daughter.
Her one bright light in
a world of darkness
and despair. The
person that meant
more to her than
anything.
She glanced over to
where she stood in the
hallway.
There she was?
? . her little angel?
? she stood clutching
her blanket and wore a
very worried look on
her beautiful face?
? ..her daughter?s
huge, beautiful blue
eyes looked onward
with horror at the
scene transpired in the
hallway outside her
bedroom.
Then the thought
slammed into our Hero
Mom like a ton of
bricks.
If she was to let this
monster of an abusive
husband take her life?

? her. daughter?s.
was. next!
He would have sole
custody and take out
his evilness on her!
Something overtook
our Hero Mom.
Som et hing she?s
never felt before.
It was like a thousand
warriors took over her
body?
? giving her acres of
strength and
conviction!
? Replacing the fear
and quit that once was
there.
She fought.
With the last of her
strength?
? she fought.
? fought back with
everything she had.
Herself? she didn?t
care about?
? but her little angel?
She wasn?t going to let
him do this to her!
She sprang her right
foot out up and kicked
him straight in the
balls.
The first one didn?t
penetrate his
anger? But, the second
one did.
He released his grip
on her throat and the
oxygen came flooding
in like a thousand
rainbows.
She didn?t take a
single second to enjoy
it though?
? ? ? ? With that
monster bowled over
in pain?
? ? ? she ran as fast
as her tired legs took
take her to her little
angel.
? ? .scooped her up in
her arms?
? ..ran past the
monster that now lay
on the floor, squealing
in pain?
? ran out the front
door to her car?
Escaped him?
? escaped this point
of her life?
? ? sped into the dark
of the night?
? ? ? ..and unsure of
what was to come next.
It didn?t matter.
She had her angel
and all she knew was
that she was safe.
Never again.
For her daught er ?s
sake.
Never again.
What?s this true story
of this brave Mom have
to do with you, my

welcomed Mom to this
very

first issue of The
Mom Warrior
Magazine?
It?s your story.
It ?s t he st ory of you.
You?re that Hero
Mom.
There?s something
that has been keeping
the real you locked
away. Something like
that abusive husband
that has been keeping
her trapped.
You have no idea how
special that you are,
Mom. You have no idea
the impact you?re
having on your kiddos.
You have no idea how
much of a success they
are going to be from
just watching you live
YOUR life.
How you?re the Model
for their own
?adult-ing? when they
get there.
That real you is The
Mom Warrior.
She is the
Unstoppable Force Of
Potential in You. You?ve
felt her, haven?t you?
Felt her stirrings
before?
Maybe it scared you?
She is Light. She is
Love. She is perfectly
designed for Purpose.
The fun, peaceful,
happy, confident,
healthy, high energy,
in-control, YOU that
you are choosing to
become.
(notice how I left out
?good-looking?,
"
or ?hot??
It?s because you already
ARE! You just don?t see it
YET! We?ll help with that!
)
Bad guys have kept
you from transforming
into her.
It?s not your fault.
May not be an
abusive husband like
you heard in that true
story there, but the
threats are real all the
same, Mom.

Just like that Mom
Hero from earlier, she
found the strength to
fight back from her
daughter. When mere

seconds before she
was accepting of
Death.
Love is the answer.
Love is our weapon.
Love is how we are
going to WIN this war,
my brave Mom!
That love you felt on
that magical,
ground-breaking day
when they entered
this world.
When you thought
you knew what Love
was. You never knew
anything so pure, so
beautiful.
This magazine, and
Movement is
dedicated to you,
Mom. The best beings
on this planet. The
greatest wielder of
this Weapon of Love.

real good line, wasn?t

No offense to them
but men have held

long.
It is your t im e.
It?s your time to rise

You know who Oprah
is, right? Would you say
she is pretty cool, Mom
Warrior?
Exactly.
My dream with this
Mom Warrior
Movement is to have
1% the impact and
7
5
?bettering the world?
that she has had.
I would be watching
Oprah as a kid and
seeing her give houses
and cars to families in
need.
I would hear stories
of how Oprah would
buy groceries for a year
to a struggling, single
Mom of two.
Seeds of sparks were
planted in that little
child brain of mine. I
was fascinated by the
happiness and joy she
created for others.
I wanted to make
people feel that way.
To know that I
mattered.
To look back on my
life when I?m an old
man nearing his end?
? analyzing my short
time I?ve been given
and asking myself?
? did I do good w it h
t he Pow ers & Gift s
our Maker ent rust ed
m e w it h?
I owe just about
everything to my
Mother, who you?ll get
to meet in this issue.
You?ll hear my story,
and stories of growing
up before long, my
dear Mom. But know
that Stress caused
plenty of hardships
and struggling times
for my Parents and
kids growing up.
Stress caused words
to get spewed that
were hurtful.
Led t o regret t able
act ions.
Took the Love they
felt for us kiddos away.
I wasn?t able to help my
Mom & Dad much
then?
? but I can now.
More importantly, I
can help you with
yours.
It is what I was put on
this planet to do. It?s a
responsibility that
scared me.
One that I wanted to
avoid because it would
be hard. It would put

me in the spotlight and the target of
controversy.
I didn?t feel good enough, attractive enough?
? nor even qualified enough! (in case you
don?t know, I?m not a woman, nor even a MOM
myself! )
Begged the good Lord to choose someone
else to meet the enormity of carrying this
message forward.
A charge I didn?t want because I was scared.
That was before I realized that to do nothing
would be the greatest crime of them all. I can
do something.
I may not be able to do everything. But still I
can do something. Because I can?t do
everything, I will not refuse to do the
something that I can do. :)
(shout out to Edward Everett Hale?s quote)
To not at least share my Mom?s story, (and
other amazing Moms you?ll meet)
? .to not let their inspiration help you out on
yours?
? that would be the greatest abuse of them
all! To let my own fear, doubt, false beliefs, and
my own Impostor Syndromes win?...
? ?NOT HAPPENING!?
So I may be scared, Mom Warrior, but your
Coach & Head Dreamer is carrying on anyway. I
gain inspiration and motivation from You.
Thank you for that. I?ll never stop appreciating
you.
If my Mother didn?t put commitment to us
kids, to Loving us the best way she knew how...
? If she didn?t put an emphasis on nutrition,
on exercise, on combating stress for herself?
? On focusing on stuff that made HER happy.
Filled up her cup. BEING the Model for her
children to emulate after?
? If she didn?t do all that?

Now let?s go start a ruckus, and unleash that
Mom Warrior within, shall we? :)

Does Lavish Here
Hold The Secret To
Getting Those Kids
To Stop Misbehaving?...
Are you m ore of a
cat person or dog
person, Mom
Warrior?
The reason I ask is
they both hold
wonderful lessons for
you in lessening some
of that parenting
stress.
Particularly if you?re
struggling with them
not listening.
A clue comes from
our kitty, Lavish.
I woke up one
Thursday morning,
groggy, tired,
overwhelmed,
pressured, insecure,
Impostor Syndrome up
the wazoo, unsure, and
indecisive?
? yeah, pretty much
7 This means that her
7
my typical morning. :)
That?s why I stress to
you the importance of
those morning routines
and starting with
gratitude, Mom
Warrior. If you?re
anything like me, this
tends to be the default
setting unless I
consciously pull myself
out!
First order of biznass
is bullet proof COFFEE!
As I leave the bedroom
and head to the
kitchen, Lavish our
kitty, starts whining
and meowing.
food bowl is empty.
That?s about the only
time we get any love
and attention from her.
Otherwise she sticks all
to herself.
This morning though,
she was particularly
stubborn. Followed me
around, meowing her
whining cry?
?Okay, I?ll fill your dish,
just let me get my
COFFEE first, Lavish.? I
said to her. (do you
think they understand
our language?)
But she didn't care I
needed COFFEE. She
was getting frustrated

that her demands weren?t
getting met.
3 steps to making Bulletproof
Coffee: (feel free to copy it and
make your own! It?s incredibly
energy-giving for you you!)
St ep 1: Take out yesterday?s
filter and grounds and throw
away in garbage
St ep 2: Put in new filter, water
and grounds and tap the ol?
?brew? button
St ep 3: Toss the now fresh
brewed coffee into the blender,
with 1 tablespoon of coconut
oil, organic butter and a dab of
Maple Syrup (thank you, Dad!).
Then let the blender do its
thing!
I didn?t m ake it t o st ep 2
t hat m orning. :)
I opened the garbage door to
throw away yesterday?s
grounds. Pulled out the garbage
and tossed it in.
And Lavish comes running in
and PLOPS herself right in front
of the door! I tried closing the
garbage door but she wasn?t
budging! That?s one way to get
my attention!
Cats are so mischievous like
that! And that?s just for when
she is hungry!
This is a perfect metaphor for
what is going on in your child?s
mind.
There are 5 buckets present in
them that need to be filled.
Lavish had one bucket to fill
that morning, her belly bucket.
When it?s empty, stuff like that
happens.
We have that too. Our bodily
needs: like hunger, thirst,
oxygen, shelter and sleep.
Same thing with your kiddos.
They have bodily needs, too. If
they?re hungry, they?ll let you
know. Maybe not as obtrusive as
Lavish, but typically it?s with
words.
Your child has 5 buckets of
their soul.
Putting a priority on filling
8
these 5 buckets will take care of
around 80% of this parenting
stress.
When these buckets are
getting low, he?ll let you know
through his behaviors, actions,
and emotions.
And for the most part, filling
these buckets is even easier and
a whole lot cheaper than getting
them food!
Here?s t he 5?
? and then I?ll explain each one
a bit, as well as giving you a
specific strategy to deploy!
(makes it sound like we are
going to WAR, doesn?t it?
Parenting does feel like that,
though right? Hence, that?s why
you?re the MOM WARRIOR!
1. Belonging
2. Significance
3. Choice & Independence
4. Attention
5. Contribution
Let ?s Talk About Belonging
This one we ALL need! It?s
wired into our DNA no matter
the age! This one is DIRECTLY
correlated with our
self-esteem.
One of the big lessons I pulled
from my psychology classes
back in college was that fact
right there.
Self-esteem (how somebody
feels about themselves) rises or
falls in direct relation to their
standing to the GROUP.

We are social creatures.
In schools, kids form cliques
and groups. Adults have it
going on in the workplace?
? kids have your family.
You?re the group. Think of
your family as a cozy little
tribe. Each member of your
family needs to know where
they belong in that tribe.
They need to know where
they fit in. They need roles.
They need jobs.
They need to know they
BELONG. They need to feel
WANTED. That they are
accepted.
Needs to know that she is
emotionally connected to
other members.
Mom ?s Taking Act ion:
Here?s how you carry this
one out. Real simple now.
Step 1: Sit them down
"4 Steps To H elping Your Child
Step 2: Give them all of your
attention and focus and say,
?Sweetie, I?ve got something real
important to tell you. Could be
the most important thing you?ll
Feel Wanted":
Step 1: Sit Them Down
Step 2: Give Them ALL Your Attention & Focus
Step 3: Say "YOU BELONG HERE! We ARE SO THANKFUL
TO HAVE YOU!"
Step 4: Repeat!
ever hear from me? ?
Step 3: Say ?YOU BELONG HERE!
We accept you!?
That?s about it in a nutshell,
Mom Warrior.
St ep 4: repeat every day if
possible. Can?t really wear these
?belonging? muscles out! :)
Bucket #2: Im port ance
LOVE this one! And it?s so
powerful! Another word to use
with this could actually be
POWER.
Especially true if it?s a Little Man
that you are raising. Seems
ingrained in us males to be want
to have power. :)
It?s vital that he feels a sense of
personal power. It means they
have power over their own
actions. When they accomplish
something, let them feel pride for
their work.
Even more importantly, let them
feel pride more so for their
EFFORT rather than the
accomplishment.
This one is huge right in the
middle of the toddler 7 years and
9
up to pre-teen. Just when they
are beginning to understand
their emotions, their feelings.
That they have control over
them.
The big emotion to come out
of this bucket is making them
feel special. Letting them know
WHY they are important.
Letting them know WHY you
love them so much! Letting
them know that they MATTER!
How much they are a blessing
on this earth and you are so
thankful to have them.
Nothing discourages a child
more than if they start believing
that they are a burden. I know
you don?t feel that way towards
them (hopefully), so it?s just a
matter of pulling that feeling to
the surface!

"
One of my students
had a Father that all he
ever talked about was
blaming her for why he
never accomplished
anything in his life.
Blamed her for why he
was a failure and was
broke all the time. He
wished she was never
born.
This was DISASTROUS
to her development.
She ended up using
that as motivation to
prove him wrong and
become a success, but
you get my point, right?
The thing is, Mom, is
that unless you point
this one out to your
child. Let them know
WHY they matter. Let
them know how GLAD
you are to have them?
? the default setting,
the conclusion they will
come to on their own?
? will be along the
lines of what that
Father said to his
daughter there.
This is an especially
im port ant one if your
child has a so-called
?disabilit y?.
Like ADHD, for
example.
This is a GOLDEN
opportunity to always
look towards the
positive of this
condition and focus
solely on that.
WHY this is a good
thing. Almost likes it?s a
superpower and they
should feel grateful to
have it.
If they start attaching
labels to it and letting it
be an anchor for why
they won?t succeed, the
ramifications could last
a lifetime.

LETTING YOUR CHILD
WIN IS ANOTHER
HACK TOWARDS
FILLING THEIR
"IMPORTANCE"
BUCKET
"
Another real simple
step in following
through on this one?
? NOTICE! Point out
things about them that
you truly love and
appreciate about their
thought process and
effort.
Aka, their internal stuff.
?Oh, Sweetie, look how
you drew them trees
with the branches and
bird?s nest. I really
appreciate your
attention to detail!?
Here?s another one
huge actionable tip you
can do with this one?
LET THEM WIN!
Rig games in their favor
and let them win.
"
WINNING is another
?hack? towards filling
your child?s Importance
bucket.
If you?re finding
yourself in more power
struggles than what
you would like?
? pay particularly good
attention to this one,
okay?
Let?s continue on.
WINNING is another
?hack? towards filling
your child?s
Importance bucket.
Bucket #3: Choice
Now as you learn
these, dear Mom
Warrior, know that
your kiddo will likely
be stronger in 1 than
the others.
Be mindful of that
and constantly on the
lookout for ways to

add to that particular bucket.
Each drop put into their
?behavior? bucket has
exponentially higher returns
than the other 4. (good to
know, right?! :) )
This seems to be an inherent
bucket in all us humans. To
make our own choices, have
control over our own destiny?
? and was the rallying cry for
us going for our
independence.
But it seems to be an even
higher bucket for children.
When THEIR ENTIRE LIFE is up
to somebody else.
...FREEDOM!
And their minds are on fire
with possibilities! (especially
during them toddler years,
which are the EXPLORE
stages!)
Poor Parents are constantly
fighting the battle of how
much to let them roam and
have freedom vs. saving their
life!
But a child needs to have
freedom to make their own
choices. If not that?s when this
bucket will begin to run dry.
When it?s running dry, that?s
when the outpouring of
misbehaviors and not
listenings begin to happen.
Turn EVERYTHING into a
choice for your child, it?s just
the 2 choices that both work
"
TURN EVERYTHING
INTOA CHOICE...
"
out for what YOU want?
?Do you want to brush your
teeth now, or after your story?
Are you familiar with how
ketchup came to be?
The owners of that company
were noticing that 50% of it?s
usage was coming from
children.
Using that ketchup was the
ONLY experience a child had
that it was up to them.
They had to eat what parents
wanted them to eat. They
were told to constantly ?clean
your plate.? Had to do
everything the adults told
them.
Then they got a hold of
ketchup! With that they could
put as little or as much
ketchup as they wanted. They
could put it on whatever they
wanted!
Heinz noticed this and so
made the bottle more
7
11
accessible to children. Easy
grip. Squeezeable. Easy pour.
So that it wasn?t as much
effort for the child to get as
much ketchup as they wanted.
Pretty cool, huh?
"
Mom ?s t aking act ion!
This is one of the
foundational reasons what
makes my Now They Listen,
Discipline & Respect System
so powerful.
Because your child has
complete control!
Here?s a nugget taken out of
that System that you can
employ today. A real simple
concept based on the token
economy.
Grab a piece of paper and
cut out little dollar bill shaped
rectangles in it. Put a 1 on
each one.
This is your tribe?s currency.
Aka, your family.
Have them do a daily chore
and let them know when they
complete it, they earned 1
?buck?.
They can then turn in that
?buck? either each day or each
week for whatever they want.
-tv watching time
- pick their own movie
- maybe an actual $1 to go
buy whatever they wanted
(DOUBLE CHOICE!)

- or Total Mind,
Body, Soul, Time with
Mommy! (more on
that later.)
The idea is to leave
it up to them!
Now onto pretty
much the most
important one of
them all! (I?m kinda
sounding like that
one lady in Cinderalla
?Who?s the fairest of
them all?? :)
Bucket #4:
At t ent ion
Here?s a statement
that I want burned
into your awesome
brain, Mom?
At t ent ion t o a
child = LOVE!
We?ll talk about your
child?s love language
and the best ways
they receive that
attention later.
But really it?s just
about showing up
and making a
conscious effort to
acknowledge them.
Acknowledge their
emotions, their
behaviors. Recognize,
appreciate, ATTEND
to them.
You get bonus
points if it?s under the
category of ?play?.
The more attention
they get from you, the
more belief and
conviction gets
imprinted on them
that ?Mommy loves
me.?
Sometimes it will be
hard. Sometimes you
will get angry. They
will misbehave. Act
out. Fight. Yell. Say
hurtful things. These
are all consequences
of an empty Attention
Bucket.
Do what you can in
those moments but in
the back of your
mind, look to see how
you can correct that
in the future by
planning on
opportunities to give
them attention.
Here?s a fabulous
way to go about
that?
Mom ?s Taking
"
ATTENTION
TO A CHILD =
LOVE!
"
Act ion:
"
Employ this
GAME-CHANGING
tool!
Totally learned it
from the brilliant Amy
McCready, called
Mind, Body, Soul
Time.
It?s real easy to
deploy, just takes
conscious effort on
your part, my dear!
Once a day, put it in
your calendar, set
reminders, do all the
fancy technology
stuff?
? 10 minutes alone
with your child. Just
you and him/her.
Give them ALL OF
YOU!
Totally engage, ask
questions. Play. let
them decide the
activity. Let them do
what they want WITH
you.
No phone, no tv on
in the background.
No distractions. Talk
about whatever they
want.
I grew up thinking
my dad was a
monster. I lived in
constant fear of him.
It was always stress
12
that ran him amok.
He lashed out with
anger, yellings, and
saying hurtful things
(and of course,
spankings) :)
The thing
"
was, my
Mom Warrior, was
that Dad loved us kids
more than anything.
Put so much stress
and pressure on
himself to provide.
Dad didn?t know it at
the time but he
deployed this Mind,
Body, Soul time.
If he didn?t? . I
probably would have
REALLY ended up as a
mess of an adult and
made even MORE
mistakes than what I
did.
I might not ever
seen him for the kind,
caring, loving soul he
actually is.
Each night, we went
for starry night walks
on the back country
road by our house.
Just me, him, and an
eager dog.
Ah, those walks.
Those were some of
my favorite memories
growing up. And
writing to you about

them now is bringing tears
of joy to my eyes, Mom.
That?s the power and value
of this. Not only is it great
for filling that Attention
Bucket, but you are putting
the memories into place for
your child for how THEY are
going to remember YOU!
You?ve got one shot and
this thing called
Motherhood, Mom. You?re
doing a magnificent job
already. Stuff like this is
merely here to have more
of your greatness be known
to your cute kiddos.
When they themselves
look back upon their life
and reminiscent about their
childhood.
Now let?s get to the last
one and then I expect you
to go continue to be that
awesome Mom that you
are?
Bucket #5 Cont ribut ion:
This one is so often
overlooked. In my mission to be
one of the best Coaches on the
planet to help you get those
kids to listen and knock off
parenting stress?
? I?ve read and researched A
LOT.
This one never comes up or is
talked about all that much. It
goes right along with those first
2 buckets of the Belonging and
Importance.
Let me give you a good story
that very clearly describes what
this Contribution is all about.
It was the story of one of my
mentors in this business world.
Him talking about one of the
darkest days of his life?
? he just had a business go
bankrupt and he was in the
hole many thousands of
dollars.
7
He had to come home and tell
13
the family. Tell the family of
the financial crisis they were
in.
The family gathered in the
kitchen and he broke down
and cried. Told them
everything.
Shared his mistakes and
screw-ups and the financial
ruin they were now in.
One of the lowest parts of
his life. But from it, came one
of his most cherished
memories.
His daughter, only around 4,
gets up from the table and
runs to her room.
Comes running back out
with her piggy bank.
Puts it on the kitchen table
and says, ?Here, Daddy, take
mine! Let me help!?
This melted his heart even

more. He vowed he was going to make this right.
True story, by the way, Mom Warrior. It?s what happened to Mike Michalowicz and shares
with us in the beginning of his extraordinary book, ?Profit First?.
Your kiddos walk around a lot like that. Wondering where they can help. Wanting to
contribute to the family.
Wanting to help make a difference. Whether it's the family or a good cause.
So here?s how to fill that Contribution Bucket for them, my dear?
Mom ?s Taking Act ion!
Do you do an allowance of some sort, Mom Warrior?
What?s a cause your whole family can get behind? It doesn?t have to be anything huge, even
if it?s donating a dollar.
Put in one of the cool rules in your family that if they donate to whatever good cause you
decide on, that you?ll match it!
Be sure to see the effects of this good will. For example, let?s say you are sponsoring a child
in Africa, you are sharing their pictures and letters with the whole family.
Letting them feel that internal ?warmth? and feel good that comes from giving like that.
What a marvelous gift you?ve given them, Mom Warrior!
Proud of you!
Until our wandering Warrior paths cross again, my brave One, may you go with the
amazingness, the Good-looking-ness, the Greatness that you are?
? keep kicking that fear in the face and Loving up on your Family.
I?m with you in this fight till the end.
God bless you for being here.

16
ALL YOU EVER

"

You start to see early on a theme. A theme

That t hem e being ?confidence?.
This non-quantifiable ?thing? that has a
profound effect on pretty much every inch of
your life?
? including this parenting stuff.
There?s no classes on it. There?s no pills to
take to up it. When its waning and running
low, you have no idea where it?s going.
Yet it spills EVERYTHING needed that divide
the line between victory and defeat!
You get to learn a few of it?s hidden secrets
from one of the best at it with this interview!..
? From my mom! The first Mom Warrior! The
one whose love, dedication, direction, model
to follow, support, and ?there-for-me-ness?
has made all of this possible!
An interview that is somewhere around 60
years in the making! (I?m actually not sure how
old my ageless Mom is, just that she?s in her

60?s)
She does share a
few of her ?forever
young? secrets too!
In your article here,

meant to
COMPLIMENT the
recorded interview.
You?ll get so much
more out of it that
way.

· summarized points
· some of the best
stuff taken from the
interview here.
· Answers to all the
questions I asked her
so you can quickly go
back to them if
needed.
· As well as, sort of,
a play-by-play of our
time spent together.
But I do implore
that you listen to this
on whatever
respective devise you
have, from the
podcast.
That way you can
FEEL the love that my
Mom has.
Understand that you
have that same
Greatness in you as
well. Hear it in her
voice, in her laughter.
Get yourself excited
so that the children
your raising today
,can go off and live
lives that you?re
proud of as well!
Let?s get to it!
InThe First 5
Minut es?
- We joke a bit about
how Parenting is so
NOT FAIR! You don?t
find out until YEARS
and YEARS and YEARS
after it?s too late if
you did it ?right? or
not!
It?s like building a
plane to fly and then
setting the thing
loose. Then you have
to sit around and
WAIT to see even IF it
flew!
* * Oh, side not e:
t his is a very LIVE
int erview !
Done while Mom
was putting together
a wonderful meal.
AND
With a little 3 year
old toddler
grandchild in the
background!
"
So Fascinated
By You!
"
4:34 >> Mom got
spanked! And she did
7 not like it!
17
Super classic Mom
moment!
"
Doing 18
things at once WHILE
spreading Sparkle
and Light via this
interview!
WHY do you think I
am so in awe, so
fascinated by you!?
A couple of m y
m om ?s superhero
origin st ories?
She grew up on a
farm. With her being
the oldest of 5
children. She was the
first to help out her
dad out in the field at
the age of 7!
He put her to work
driving the tractor
and bailer (farm talk).
But her little legs
were too short to
reach the pedals!
So what did her dad
(my Grandpa) do?
Just had her shut
the key off when it
was time to stop!
How?s that for
problem solving!?
She found out from
a young age that she
liked getting a tan in
the summers!
I asked, ?Who
started that!??
Where do you fall
on this most
controversial of all
parenting tactics,
Mom?
"
5:40 >> The ?sport?
Mom would play if
she could?
6:50 >> special
shout-out to her
littlest sister, Tina!
Mom calls her, ?my
teeny, tiny, Tina!?
Whom Mom was a
wonderful big sis to.
She would take her
everywhere!
8:32 >> Mom starts
dishing some good
stuff on everyday
leadership!
Something pretty
important to you
being a Mom and all!
- We?re all leaders,
Mom says. We can
embody the qualities
of a leader. Of
Empathy and care.
- Leaders walk the
talk. If you?re going to
talk it, you have to
practice it yourself.
- Leaders take
action (SUPER
AGREE!)
Mom didn?t always

feel like a leader. Like
through those some
tough, getting picked
on and put down,
times of high school.
She had acne really
bad, and that
certainly brought in
the teasings and
insecurities. That
combined with her
being a ?farm girl??
? totally trashed her
confidence totally
bad.
Something that
fueled her to
overcome as she
sped through
adulthood.
10:47 >> Glorious
Mom Quote ahead.
?HEY! LOOK AT ME
NOW! I turned into
something! May have
been an ugly duckling
before, but now I am
a beautiful swan!?
? not to be a show-off
or anything, but I am
NOT an ugly duckling!?
12:12 >> With the
sounds of slicing
carrots in the
background, Mom
shares the day all
Moms can relate to?
? the day they found
out that they were
pregnant!
13:27 >> Mom's
quote: ?If that never
happened (pregnant
with my older sis,
Sabrina) would I still
have gotten married??
? But Family comes
first!
Wouldn?t you agree,
Mom!?
14:12 >> Mom tells
Dad that she is
pregnant. Dad goes
?Will you marry me??
You know that I am
very FOR Moms and
in complete
dedication to you. But
can we take a second
to appreciate the Dad
Heroes of the world
too?
Give a man that has
done some good in
your life some love
and appreciation
today, won?t you,
Mom Warrior?
15:49 >> I ask Mom
?Was abortion an
option?? Her answer
knocked my socks off!
* * 16:24 >> One of
Mom?s keys to
success: ?Whatever is
happening, I just go
with it.I just move
forward. Make the best
of it.?
"
Holy cow is my Mom
brilliant! How
awesome was that
statement!?
I share this same
sentiment. It wasn?t
so much a lesson that
Mom passed down to
me. More like
something I just
picked up, being her
Son, and following
her example.
That?s why you
being the Mom
Warrior is so
important, Mom.
Because in you living
the life you were
meant for, your child
will learn to do the
same!
18:12 >> You get to
hear from my Dad!
He enters the house
from working inside
and you get to hear
one of the more
famous lines that you
Parents always say!
Ah, good moment!
So thankful that it got
captured on the
recording!
20:02 >> ?Sabrina
was actually a pretty
good baby!?
21:12 >>The advice
she would give her
18
younger self when
she was just a kid
(21!) when she
became a Mom for
the first time and was
taking care of the
baby.
"
23:00 >> because
Mom wasn?t that
confident at the start
of their marriage and
raising their first
child, she just had to
take on the roles that
her husband wanted
her to.
The cooking. The
cleaning. The taking
care of the baby.
Changing diapers.
?Hey, when?s supper
going to be??is
something Dad would
ask. So it was just
assumed for my
Mom:
?Oh, looks like I will
have to cook the
meals.?
24:28 >> How Mom
got to be so good at
cooking! ? She just
did it! Got recipes.
Practiced. Failed.
Tried again. That
worked. Nobody died.
Okay, keep doing
that! :)
Cooking is such a
wonderful metaphor

for pretty much
anything you want to
be successful at in
life!
25:41 >> here?s a
real interesting
question that I?m sure
you?ll appreciate?
? this whole concept
of ?healthy eating?.
We talk about it here
for a couple of
minutes about the
way we ate was just
normal. There were
none of this "bad"
eating stuff.
It?s curious to
ponder about when
this distinction
started occurring?
26:42 >> The birth
of JAZZERCIZE in the
Chippewa Valley and
my Mom?s life!
Jazzercise would
play a HUGE role in
our lives!
It would be my
Mom?s first foray into
the world of fitness.
She loved taking the
classes. Loved the
social aspect of it and
being with other
Moms.
Loved being
challenged by doing it
by being in a group
setting.
Since then, there
has never been a
time in my Mom?s life
where exercise wasn?t
a part of it!
* 28:49 >> Probably
m y second favorit e
part of t his w hole
int erview !
The origins of my
Mom and her first
entrepreneur
"
I AM OF
"
THE MIND
THAT YOU CAN
NEVER DISCONTINUE
LEARNING
"
""
30:30 >> Mom
would start to train
seniors! And said how
those ladies are just
7 the best!
19
adventure?
? Her own Aerobics
class instructor
business!
It started in typical
CLASSIC entrepreneur
style, Mom spotted
an opportunity!
An opportunity
based on what other
people were asking
for!
?I wish that they had
classes closer to Jim
Falls,? the ladies she
went to class with
would say. After
traveling close to half
an hour to get to.
So Mom took it
upon herself to see if
she could pull it off!
She would be
nervous. She was
scared. She didn?t
have perfect
confidence, but she
dived in anyway!
I would totally
agree! I currently
have my small group
of ladies that I train in
person, and I just
can?t get enough of
them!
Love them, love
them, love them!
Special shout-out to
you Diane, Dee,
Connie, and Shirley, if
you?re reading this! So
honored to be your
Coach!
Maybe it was little
kid me going with
Mom to when she
lead this classes
where I fell in love
working with
Grandma?s?
Hmmmmm,
interesting.
* 33:45 >>
AWESOME MOM
QUOTE! ?I am of the
mind that you can
never DISCONTINUE
learning. Professional
Development.
Everything keeps
changing!?

34:56 >> #1 The first of Mom?s Keys to
Gaining that CONFIDENCE!
She joined a professional organization.
Surrounded herself with talent and
mentorship. In her case it was the IAAP.
International Association Administrative
Professionals
Mom jumps into key #2 right away here
too:
She w as nervous, but she t ook act ion
anyw ay. In her case it was being the Leader
for the aerobics classes she taught.
35:50 >> Mom?s third key to Confidence
right here!...
Listened to feedback others were saying,
good feedback? and BELIEVED them!
"Well, if enough people are saying I?m that
good, well I must be that good then!"
This is so huge for you, Mom, if you are
like a lot of women and feeling not so
confident most of the time.
For most of us it is just being in tuned to
what others are saying. A lot of the time
they have good stuff to say, but we don?t
receive it.
It?s like a radio station is broadcasting, we
just don?t have the radio turned on.
That?s a wonderful actionable step from
this interview you can take forward if you
want.
>> Start being on the lookout for anything
good or positive someone else is saying
about you. Then write it down!
Value, recognition, appreciation.
That?s all many of us want. It?s time you
started getting yours too!
Think of your confidence as like a fuel

KEY #2: BEING
NERVOUS BUT
TAKING ACTION
ANYWAY
"
gauge. It?s supposed to ALWAYS be full!
When it?s full, that?s when you are rocking life
as the Mom Warrior and kicking stress &
tiredness in the BALLS!
So when you sense it going low, follow my
Mom?s advice:
Draw on w hat ot hers have been saying!
Think upon instances of them saying that.
Remember that. Pull yourself out of that funk!
* 37:06 >> Mom?s best stress combater! (you
probably already guessed what it is!)
Her top advice she would give her younger
self: have more PATIENCE! Be more proactive
rather than reactive!
40:40 >> We learn about BESTOLOGY! A
pledge on how to be your best!
1. believe in your best
2. do one thing different
3. honor authenticity (second this one!) :)
4. cultivate purpose
5. be your own Champion!
43:08 >> Mom is so sm art w it h her 4t h Key
t o Confidence here?
- It?s just sort of part of life that stuff is going
to happen that is going to sap that confidence.
Know this. Don?t be surprised by it. And go
back to your Confidence raisers when it does.
When the internal questions start getting
there like, ?Did I do terrible??
20

?do they not like me??
It happens. Those
voices don't mean
anything. So Mom
says:
?You just have to
work through it!?
That?s it!
Here?s some more
about Confidence
that Mom wished to
share!
The 4 agreem ent s
one m ust have w it h
t hem selves:
1. Be im peccable
w it h your w ord.
* my Mom was
fabulous at teaching
us, and passing on
down to us, the
importance of
Commitment!
If you say you?re
going to do
something, you do it!
This one is probably
one of the hardest
agreements to keep
and at the same time
one of the most
powerful!
This one is so
profound that Mom
found the strength to
pull through some
rough times in the
marriage in that
Commitment.
* 46:40 >> Moms top
2 stress tips!
Exercise and having
friends to talk to!
Simple & Awesome!
Good job, Mom!
Agreem ent #2
Don?t take anything
personally
#3 Don?t make
assumptions.
#4 TRY your best !
This is one is
another huge
takeaway, Mom! It?s
not so much praising
or acknowledging the
RESULT for your
child?
? rather it is the
effort and work they
put in!
51:24 >> Rapid fire

THE HUSBAND
WHISPERER!
by Coach Spiegel
You know how you wish you had a crystal
ball into what's going on in that
husband's head sometime? NOW YOU
Do!
Let's See If We Can't Head Off
Some Of That Husband Stress,
Did you know that such a large
number of problems with the
husband could probably be
solved with love.
"...THAN THAT
LOVE OF YOURS"
That is if Love is there. :)
If it's there, then it means
there is reception problem,
Mom. Meaning, one person is
talking in love language they're
not picking up.
Nothing is more powerful in
this universe than that love of
yours, and here is how to show
that to your others!
Gary Chapman's ground
breaking book, "The 5 love
languages", rescued and
impacted many a relationship
and marriage.
He taught us that we speak the
language of love in 1 of 5 ways.
Here is this guy's take on the 5,
complete with stories and
examples to make you laugh, cry
and then laugh again!
1. Love Language of Words
Preferably words of
thoughtfulness, 7kindness, love,
23
and appreciation. Want MORE
stress? Just do the opposite of
all that) :)
Let's say Hubz?love language is
words.
Here is the story...
Hubz is showing your son how
to do math? (which if you think
you have stress arising from
problems, just say to yourself?
?At least I?m not a math
book? they really have problems?
;)
And you notice that it was
really genius how he showed
that cute son of yours how to
arrive at the solution. So you say
to your hubz:
?Wow, honey, that was really
genius how you explained that to
him.
You are a marvelous teacher!
Not only is he lucky to have you
as a wonderful father... I am lucky
to have you!
As you have taught me many

wonderful things! Thank
you. And by the way you
are very handsome and I
love your beard.?:)
Nice job, wife! You
just showed your hubz
that you love him and
now he understands!
(And will keep his
beard) ;)
Onto number 2...
2. Quality time
100% focused
attention, alone time,
with that (hopefully)
wonderful significant
other of yours.
Two way street, baby!
Both in it together!
If you do the date
night thing (which they
say is pretty smart to
do)?
...no cell phones.
Leave them at home,
kiddo. The world will
still be there when
you're done. If the
hubz isn?t
cooperating? let me
talk to him ;) )
.No distractions, just
talking, and LUVR
communication:
L-listen
U- understand
V- Verify
R- resolve
And t alk about
feelings! Good
feelings!:
?I loved it when you
did? .?
?I think is was cool
when you said? .?
?I like how you said? .?
St ory t im e!...
You are fond of your
two dogs. Dogs need to
go for walks (that's
24
"
AS YOU TWOARE WALKING
THE DOGS, YOU LEAVE THE
CELL PHONES, THE
FACEBOOKS, THE EMAILS,
THE 4 BAGILLION THINGS...
"
their excitement).
There is two of you:
you and the hubz.
There is two dogs....
Ummm, I think there
is a Genius idea in
there somewhere!
As you two are
walking the dogs, you
leave the cell phones,
theFacebook, the
emails and the 4
bagillion things you can
do on them... at home.
You talk about your
day, how so and so
made you feel.
You talk about your
plans for the future...
...how you would like
the future to look.
You talk about your
son and his math
problems and how it
makes you feel. :)
You talk about how
glad you are that you
aren't a math book...
...because they really
have problems :) still
funny? no? Crap.) :)
Words aren?t the
main form of
communication here,
my dear Mom Warrior.
It is the environment in
which this beautiful
exchange is taking
place. That being that
each person?s focus
and attention is ON
THEIR LOVED ONE.
You talk about the
pretty sunset.
You toss in a little
love language
num ber 1
(why put all your eggs
in 1 basket?)
and compliment him
on his nice butt and

manly beard! :)
Doesn?t really quite
matter as long as you
two are spending some
good ol?quality time
with each other.
With the other one is
the main recipient of
that person?s attention.
Now let's go give each
other some nice
things!...
3. Giving gifts
?here, honey, I was
thinking of you?
Awwwwwwww!
Doesn?t matter if we
have zero use for that
thing, or if it is
butt-ugly? just the fact
that the one we want
to be loved by most in
this world (outside of
your children, of
course ;) ) showed us
their love to us.
Remember that Eva
Longoria and that
Desperate Housewives
show? I know, great
show (yeah, I watched
it? and LOVED it! Don?t
tell anyone ;) )
She hooked up with
that rich guy that was
gone all the time. You
know who I am talking
about?
Well, this guy had a
wife that divorced him
and in their house
there, there was a
walk-in closet full of
expensive dresses,
shoes, and outfits.
The dude was gone
all the time on
business stuff. But he
still loved his wife so he
just kept buying her
stuff hoping that that
would be enough to
keep her happy and
hanging on? .
..it wasn?t. :(
She wanted to feel
loved from love
language numero 2,
quality time?
...She wanted her
husband around.
Although the
expensive gifts were
nice, it wasn?t what she
really seeked.
It wasn?t what was
really lacking in her
soul.
So she left him to go
find it and that is how
Eva ended up in a
closet full of her
fantasy clothes. Before
long though, gentle
7
25
reader, it started
happening to her too!
Uh-oh, so she left him
to go back to Carlos.
Oh, them love
triangles!
Let?s get into the
often forgot love
language of acts of
service.
4. Acts of Service
Performing actions
for the other person in
the name of love!
It is one of my
favorite movies, A
Knights Tale.
William Thatcher
(aka Heath Ledger)
says to his beautiful
true love, that princess
chick (before they
hooked up) that he will
win this match in her
honor!
Then she is all like?
?That?s boring! How
about you lose in my
honor to prove your love
to me???
And Handsome
Heath is all like?
?WHAAAAT! Why would
I do that!? I am a
champion and
champions DON?T LOSE!
(ps: you?re a champion,
Mom Warrior :) )
And then pretty
princess was all like?
?Exactly!... If you truly
love me, you will do
what is against your
nature to prove it to me!?
Then he is all
disappointed and sad
because he now knows
what he must do?
? he begins to lose.
Let?s himself get beat
up and defeated all in
the name of love...
So that she will know
how he feels. To show
her he is not just all
talk and full of crap like
a lot of people are.
So yeah, Mom
Warrior, this love
language is a lot like
that.
Except instead of
pointy lances and
great-haired knights
(We miss you, Heath!
R.I.P., great one!) and

stuck-up bored princesses
(she gets over it, though)? .
? we have dirty dishes,
long grass and empty cups
of coffee that could use
some attending to!
So just do chores,
activities and nice gestures
that your true love can do
on their own, but you do it
anyway to show your love.
Other examples besides
losing jousting competitions
include, but certainly not
limited to?
? dinner, making
sannwiches,
changing the oil on the
car,
doing the dishes for them,
mowing the lawn, getting
them a beer,
tucking them in at night,
reading them a bedtime
story...
(Bethany reads me stories
out of the Chicken Soup For
the Dog Lover?s Soul to
me? isn?t she sweet?!).
How is this sounding so
far, not too over the top?
Good!
One more to go and this is
an easy one! (Pun totally
intended, awesome one,
you'll see!) :)
5. Good Ol' Fun Physical Touch
This one is pretty
self-explanatory isn?t it?
Hand holding, back rubs,
massages,
cuddling? .moving all the
way up to the more adult
themed actions.
? (and then even higher
than that into the 50 shades
category! Yikes!)
Ever seen the hit tv show
Everybody Loves Raymond?
(yup, we just went from 50
to Raymond!)
You know that awesome
wife of Ray?s? Apparently
this was her love language
(she was pretty awesome,
wasn?t she?) :)
She really wanted cuddles
bad, and good ol?Ray wasn?t
complying. He was too
much of a non touchy feely,
tough guy. (C?mon, Ray!)
But he got good advice
from his Mom (See the
goodness you bring!) to be
all cuddly all day as much as
possible and then when
they go to bed together?
She will be all ?cuddled?out
and leave him alone.
It didn?t work. :)
Back to the drawing board
for funny ol?Ray!
So there we have it, Mom
Warrior. The 5 languages of
love and some good lessons
to be had from each!
Lessons learned from
compliments of bearded
manliness,
...to some no iphone
26
alone time...
...to giving and receiving nice
thoughtful gifts,
...to Handsome Heath?s acts of
service,
...and then with 50 shades of ?close
your eyes!? (okay, not quite that far!)

wonderful woman he's ever met.
By the time you read this it
should be nearing our 2 year
wedding anniversary.
With everyday with her feeling
like a blessing.
He was smitten by her the very
first day he laid eyes on her and
couldn't believe that she was so
into a goofball like him. She
speaks his love language of
Words all the time, with hers
being the same.
(yikes, writing in 3rd person is
tough!) :)

WARNING! We've got
some controversial religion
talk ahead, so if that's not
your thing...
...feel free to skip!
It w as just
supposed t o be a
norm al day for Mr.
Saul.
(no relation Saul
Goodman, the lawyer
from ?Breaking Bad?)
Just another
Thursday.
Just another day at
the ol?office. He had
himself a job to do.
That job was in
another town.
He had to do a bit of
traveling to get to
where the job was. To
get the job done.
Those troublesome
Christians were causing
quite the ruckus over in
Damascus.
He should have felt
pret t y bad for t he
hunt ing,
? the maiming,
? the killing?
? but really, he didn?t.
Those rambunctious
Christians were causing
quite the stir over there
and they certainly
28
weren?t stopping
anytime soon.
So he put on his
pants, fastened his
belt, hastened his
sword? and off he went
to follow his charge to
go do something about
it.
Yup, just another day
at work.
This would turn out
to not be the case
though, dear Mom
Warrior.
You are very smart.
You got your stuff
together. You obviously
know a lot. You?ve likely
heard this story before,
haven?t you?
So you know how this
story unfolds for Mr.
Saul, right?
In case you don?t
know ?
According to the
Bible, Acts 9:1-19?
...Saul was one of the
worst persecutors of
Christians that ever
was. On the road to the
town of Demascus, he
was struck by a
powerful Light, and a
powerful Voice.
(More powerful than
Blake Shelton?s, That
tattooed guy from
Maroon 5, and sweet
Kelly Clarkson!)
With Saul down on
his knees with
confusion and much
?What the (bleep) is
going on-ness?!? he

heard the Voice say to him:
?Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me??
?Who are you, Lord??Saul asked.
?I am Jesus, who you are persecuting,?he replied.
?Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told
what you must do.?
(don?t you love it when the good Lord/Universe is
super clear on what you must do, Mom Warrior?)
So what follows forth from this Calling of Saul
was a bit of a rebirth. Called by Jesus to be one of
his Apostles. To carry his Message forth.
To no longer be Saul. Step into his new life, his
new Path, his new Calling, his new Mission.
? As Paul.
To be one of the baddest, boldest, coolest, most
powerful of the Apostles. To go on and SAVE
Christians, where before it was beheadings and
crucifixions.
To go from one of the worst offenders of the
Faith, to one of it?s strongest Leaders.
So w hy him ?
Why not some Joe Shmoe down the road that
DIDN?T have the reputation of, oh, killing
thousands and thousands of God?s people?
God in Her ultimate power, and affinity, could
have called anybody to carry out this job that
needed to be done.
* * (p.s. I refer to God as a female, just so you know.
Hence, the ?Her?. You?re welcome to disagree for
sure.
It?s just that when I think of God, I think of Love.
When I think of Love, I think of a Mother?s Love.
That?s why.)
So why did She choose the worst sinner the land
has ever seen?
Why not somebody a little bit more believable
when it comes to bringing His Message to the
7
29
masses?
Somebody the crowd wouldn?t have held
such a vendetta against?
Som eone a lit t le less ext rem e in t heir
crim es.
Why oh why, dear Lord?
That ?s not even t he m ost puzzling quest ion
of t his st ory of Saul t o Paul, Mom Warrior?
Why not more stories like this? Why not more
transformational ones of sinner to Saint?
It worked out pretty good for Paul and his
transformation, why didn?t God do it some
more?
Even if there were, why not include more
works and stories like that in the Bible and
other Apostles?adventures?
This was a pretty brilliant move by God and
the Bible. Let me tell you why?
? She didn?t w ant us cherry-picking t he best
Apost le st ories and choosing t hat rout e t o
follow ?
? that life to emulate.
She wanted to give us as an extreme
example of what is possible.
That we would know that it would be okay.
If a fallen soul could fall as far as Saul did?
? enjoy in the beheading of men, women,
and children for no other reason but their
beliefs of a higher Power?
? for no other reason than how they chose to
have their life represented.
To go from that?
? .to being an original superhero Avenger
(that?s how I view those Apostles ).
One of the best ones at that!
To go from one super duper, really, really bad
extreme to the other?

? surely there is
plenty of hope for
anyone!
That way no matter
where we were at,
sinning wise?
? one could always
come back to the Light.
Be forgiven. Still do
some good with their
time and energies on
this planet.
Our brains, our
psychology, dear
Mom? LOVES cont rast .
We notice it. It grabs
our attention. We root
it on.
Rags to riches. Ugly to
beautiful. Sweet to
salty. Gross to
delicious. Billionaire to
homeless.
100 plus pounds
overweight to cover
model. Told never
going to walk again to
running marathons.
The m ore ext rem e

God wanted us to
know the story of Saul
to Paul. She wanted his
story to stand out
above the rest.
So that we would
know what was
possible.
You need to know
something about your
Coach here if you wish
to be a part of this
good fight we are on.
I dabbled a bit on the
dark side too, Mom.
Made some mistakes
before, I myself, was
transformed.
Nothing quite as
extreme as what Saul
was doing?
? But st ill pret t y
w rong all t he sam e.
But I don?t know if I
could show up as your
Leader & Coach if I
didn?t make those
mistakes. Maybe it was
just something I had to
go through.
I felt the Call a while
ago, my brave Mom
Warrior.
Was feeling it for
quite a long time. Back
even when I was
personal training at the
gym and over the
course of this last
decade of my life.
It was like a constant
buzzing in the
background of my
thoughts. I wanted to
ignore it. Tried running
away from it.
Ignored it because I
knew the road ahead
was going to be
difficult. Did not believe
in myself to carry forth
that Call.
Ignoring it was
building up a like
corrosive plaque within
me. Lost my identity.
Lost my Purpose. Lost
my Way.
I was scared, Mom.
Frightened. Never felt
good enough. Never
felt worthy enough to
Lead you.
I should have trusted
the Source of that
Calling. That is my fault
and something I will
have to live with.
I wanted it to be easy.
Wanted to stay in my
little comfort box.
Didn?t want this
immense
responsibility. Wanted
God to Call someone
else to take up the
charge. Someone
better? .
? ? Better qualified.
? ..Better educated.
? Better looking.
(with a full head of hair,
perhaps?)
I tried drowning out
that Calling with more
busy work. With
alcohol. With video
games. With television.
It led me down a dark
path and I did things I
am embarrassed by. I
am ashamed of myself.
(although at least
nothing quite as bad as
killing Christians, yikes!
How did Paul ever
bounce back from
THAT!?)
I am asking for your
forgiveness, Mom .
Not for the crimes I
created. For they
weren?t the worst
offense I did?
But for ignoring my
Calling for so long. For
not following through
and fighting through
that fear.
30

For letting my fear and limiting
beliefs keep me from helping you
and your Mission.
The good Lord has been very
good to me. Blessed with many
gifts to aid you in your journey.
Gifts I wasn?t using for how She
intended them.
With your new adventure to
punch stress, fear, and tiredness
in the face! So that you can
discover your own Greatness that
it?s keeping from you from!
Pass that Greatness onto your
Littles.
I am sorry for that, my dear
Mom Warrior. If you never want
to hear from me again, to refuse
my help & coachings?
? I understand.
You deserve someone who
hasn?t been an adjunct failure for
most of his life like me. (although
I do use cool, smart-sounding
words like ?adjunct?here and
there, don?t I?)
You know m y Mission now. The
one given t o m e by Her.
1% of Oprah.
By the time my good Lord says
my end here on Earth is up?
? For this Mom Warrior
Movement to have 1% of the
impact towards the good people
of this planet that that
Phenomenal Force, known as
Oprah, has had.
Declaring WAR on st ress &
t iredness for now.
We?ll see where it goes from
there, we?ll see. I?ll let God guide
me.
I am done ignoring the Call,
because not only to do so would
bring back my own self-sabotage
and self-destruction. But even
worse?
? it would be halting your
Goodness.
The Darkness & Bad guy
businesses would continue to
win.
To continue to steal your Light.
Your joy. Your happiness.
You would miss out. Your
children would miss out on
realizing how beautiful life can
truly be.
How great it can be when
you?ve got a handle on this
stress. No longer bogged down
with tiredness and feeling like a
failure because you?ve been lied
to and tricked.
When you?re rocking life as
YOUR real self! Letting your
children be proud of you! Letting
them know what it?s like to have
a HAPPY Mom!
7
31
For them to turn around and
follow in your footsteps and
do the same. For if ever
obstacles, obscurity?
? difficulty, self-doubt, wars
within between good & evil.
Light vs. Darkness?
if one day their own demons
and Darkness start winning.
Their own Light begins to
fade.
When you want nothing
more than to give them Hope.
Give them Courage.
Because of you they will win!
They will be all like ?If my Mom
can do it! I can do it!?
Now, to your Mission you
go? your time to get after it is
NOW, Mom Warrior!
Honored to play my small
part in your new self!

I s H ealing Your A drenals The
Secret To 300% M ore Energy?
Here's The Often Overlooked "Pirate" Vitamin That Does
Just That..
By That: Hard-Working Coach Spiegel Guy!
32

It's not your fault, Mom.
You put so much pressure
on yourself...
You do so because of your
caring nature and beautiful
heart...
...and, Darling, that is
certainly not to blame. In fact
that is what makes you
special...
..and me in awe of you!
But those poor adrenals of
yours...
All they are trying to do is
keep you alive.
They don't know that they
are in the wrong century, the
wrong country.
They are just too slow to
adapt with no signs of that
changing anytime soon! (I
know, what's wrong them,
right?)
Where death and running for
our lives isn't lurking around
every corner.
The stress systems that
exists in your hard working
body are t here...
...to keep you and your loved
ones safe.
Safe from human eating
monsters like tigers and
bears. (whew, your coach
almost typed 'oh my'...which, I
apologize, stopped being
funny around 40 years ago no
matter how much of a classic
Wizard Of Oz is :) )
Now we are worried about
money...
..getting to work on time
....the stressors of the job
......and our kids (who you
love so much, don't you?)
....or how our butt looks in
those jeans...I know , big
w orries, right ?!
Yet that type of worry kicks
7
the ol' adrenals int o action
33
anyway, my Mom Warrior!
Those adrenals are just
sputtering along.
You are doing everything
right... Everything you are
supposed to do.
Yet, those adrenals are
limping along, not functioning
like they should.
Causing those pant sizes to
stay right where they are at.
Causing you to be moody at
odd times throughout the day.
Causing you to be less the
amazing woman you are.
You just want to feel like
your carefree, spontaneous,
fun, energetic self again, don't
you?
Adrenals are like a
credit card in t hat t hey
need a lit t le recovery
t im e aft er m axing out .
Back in the cavewoman days,
the female was a force to be
reckoned with....
....And she would have made
you proud, my good reader.
SHE is the reason humanity
has survived through those
tough times, not the dudes.
There is no limit to the
greatness of the female, and
that is why I am so in awe of
you.
Now, despite all her powers
of perseverance,

(which you have in you too,
by the way)
that cavewoman would have
been jealous of your lifestyle
and the rich choices you have.
(Oh, and of your cute outfits :)
)
...But she w ould have been
confused.
Her adrenals would kick in
when the family was about to
get attacked by a neighboring
rival tribe.
They would kick in when
looking a tiger in the face,
licking its chops (the tiger...not
the cavewoman ;) )
Her first instinct was to her
family...much like it is for
yours!
...Although death was a
constant, she was able to
handle herself and get by
okay.
She would be wondering
why your adrenals are
practically running 24-7 when
safety and security are a given
in your world.
Today's w orld:
Despite us humans of today
34
living as safe and secure as we
ever have, our adrenals are
more than ever taxed and
burnt out.
That in turn is causing huge
fluctuations in weight gain as
the hormones that normally
regulate such processes are
misfiring and lacklusting all
day! (That's a word now) :)
Looks like there is som e
hope in a pret t y pow erful
vit am in that Captain Jack
Sparrow (don't forget the
'Captain' part...he HATES it
when you leave it out!)
and the other pirat es and
sailors are pretty fond
of...good ol' scurvy fighting
Vitamin C!
Are you feeling any of the
following:
- chronic colds
- belly rolls that aren't
frickin budging!
(C'MON!)

- constant tiredness, even
though you would get
plenty of sleep
- constant feeling of
'UGH, SO BUSY!' and
seemingly having 4000
things to do all at once
- a night alone, you by
yourself, just you, a
book, and a
bath...sounds SUPER
NICE!
...Yup, sorry, amazing
one...your adrenals are
a-burning out.
But remember...It 's not
your fault .
You are just very caring, very
full of thoughtfulness, very full
of love for others...that it is
wearing those hormone
producers down.
Please don't let it lead t o
your dow nfall.
That is what makes you
special and great at whatever
you do. Don't change that
because within that greatness
within you lies your secret to
getting out...
There is hope.
Turns out that Vitamin C is
pretty amazing.
If your adrenals are a credit
card, Vit am in C is t he
paym ent s...how cool is that!
Vitamin C is the recharger!
That and lots of quality sleep
will work wonders.
We are as overstressed and
worrisome as we have ever
been in the last 50ish years
whilst (love that word) our
vitamin C levels have actually
declined.
That 's bad new s, dude!
Sorry to be a bummer,
sweetie, but I have to share
with you a few of the pitfalls
and problems of having low
Vitamin C. 7
35
Let's walk that line of the
negatory C intake for a bit,
shall we?
1. St upid belly fat ! With
stress being a constant
and adrenals wearing
down (bc of not enough
of that C), the body
compensates by storing
up a back-up supply of
quick energy...aka that
yucky belly fat you
despise so much!
2. Triggers w eight gain
cycles: Vitamin C is
actual a magical
slimming agent and so
when it is lacking, what
little does get in the
body, stress eats it all
up. For instance...C
helps out immensely in
creating carnitine, an
amino acid that carries
stored fat to working
muscles.
3. Are you over
40?...list en up t o t his

part , kiddo!
With those
child-bearing
days of yours
winding down
to a close, the
task of
producing
hormones falls
soley (my shoes
have soles, :) )
on those
hard-working
adrenals of
yours.
This is especially true
for the king of
fat-burning
hormones,
testosterone!
With stress ratcheting
up cortisol, and that
hormone soaking up
all the nutrients,
there is none left for
your team of t -rones.
Okay, Coach,
w ould you m ind
sharing som e
GOOD NEWS!?
Of course!...
--Your body is
incredibly forgiving!
(Just as I suppose you
are! :) )
----Basically one day
of flooding your body
with awesome C and
your adrenals are well
on their recovering
way!
Reducing cortisol
production by 300%,
(whoa, thats a lot)
and restoring
t-rone production
AND firing up fat
burn! (I don't know
about you, but I really
want to eat an orange
right now ;)...
more on the best
places to get it in a
sec...
---Fat burn!
--belly bulge
begone!
---jeans no longer

t hat t is just t he
beginning, m y dear
reader!
- Let's see, we've
got an uptick in
energy.. People
will be amazed
and jealous of
how much
energy you
have...
-
- Lessening cold
symptoms by a

that you don't

somebody told
me that you

skin?

- You get that

feel kinda like
Oprah, dealing
out goodness,
right now with
her, " YOU GET
A CAR! YOU
GET A CAR!
EVERYBODY
GETS A CAR!"
(Ah, great times...boy,
do I love that Oprah,
how about you?) :)
Okay, I'm
convinced,
Coach, how
about let t ing m e
in on how t o get
it int o m y body!
Looks like good ol'
USD of A
recommends 75mg,
but that is barely
scratching the surface
for your high flying
life...so the experts
say. (they are so
smart, those experts)
:)
Those smart
hombres are saying
that it should be
closer to 2000mg of C
goodness a day from
a nice variety of
natural sources and
supplementation.
But not 2000mg
from day 1, okay?
Work your way up
and give your hard
working bod some
time to adjust.
500m g every 6
hours. Day 1 cap off

at a 1000m g for t he day. Then add 500m g a
day for a couple of days in a row.
Vitamin C is water soluble, meaning it does
its business in the presence of water, so make
sure you drink your daily dose of that H2O
goodness as well, got it?
Oh shoot, before I forget, here is that list of
the bestest C packed vegetables
(ps: I can never spell that word right :P)
>> Bell peppers (My wifey loves the green
peppers on EVERYTHING!) 170mg
>> Kale -120m g
>>Hot peppers - 70mg
>>Kiw i - 70mg as well
(ps: my beautiful Bethany is sadly allergic to
this so they aren't in the house too often)
>>Brussels Sprouts - 60mg
Pineapple - 55mg
Strawberries - 55mg (whilst one of my clients
was preggers and still working out, she
CRAVED this red goodies day and night and
HAD TO HAVE THEM! (you know how it is)) :)
Orange - 50mg (orange you glad I wrote this
article for you? :) )
Broccoli - 45mg (I have to be careful with
these because they give me the farts :) )
Getting 2000mg a day is a lot, isn't it?! Holy
cow!
That's where technology and some smart
humans come into play.
Although supplementation is great and a
fabulous way to bridge the gap, to rely on it
soley for your daily dosage is setting yourself
up for some faulty failure, I'm afraid.
Looking at your daily dosage, it should only
comprise 10-20% of what is left that you aren't
getting nat urally.

Insider secret !
Because of the awesomeness of Vitamin C,
another insider tip is that the food industry is
well aware of our awareness of wanting to get
it in our bodies.
They advertise it and plaster it everywhere
on substances they want you to buy!
The big one is fruit juices.
The vitamin C in there is already pretty
denatured (fancy talk for 'RUINED'!) in the
'turning-it-to juice' process.
So that crap is just basically sugar water
flavored fruit juice.
It is pretty much a step away from soda so if
you are in the business of bettering yourself
and your health for your loved ones (you
better be! ) then you deserve to know that.
They've found the best sources of Vitamin C
to be rich vegetables that are raw, lightly
steamed or sauteed (love that word).
A University of California study found that
up to 55% of that stress defeating, fat
blasting, Vitamin C was lost by long or high
heat cooking.
...It's time to de-st ress before it gets worse,
isn't it?
Do you feel better about your outlook on life

a bit more?
How about how to deal with that stupid
stress?
Do you need help in implementing this and
keeping you on track?
Is that stress leading to stress eating?
-or other emotional eating?
-Are you over 40?
-A love/hate relationship with food?
Have you been on a weight roller coaster for
awhile and struggle with motivation.
Gained. Lost. Gained. Lost. Tried about
everything?
Struggled with consistency,
accountability?
Has is it been difficult fitting "HEALTHY" in
with your busy lifestyle? It's cause they've
