Albert Preciado - Mortgage Guy to Life Changer
Albert Preciado is the Founder and CEO of The Mortgage Guys, Ambiance Realty and Driven Enterprises. Albert is also a Real Estate Investor. In 2013 Albert bought a 3 unit property and like everything else Albert does he went all in and acquired as many multi-units as possible. This would end up being a Life Changer. Albert’s original company was The Mortgage Guy and after mentorship sessions the company’s name changed to The Mortgage Guys. This was another Life Changer. Albert has been in the mortgage industry since 2005, he is a licensed Broker and Mortgage Originator. Albert went through the toughest times of his life in 2008 when we had a market recession and Mortgage Meltdown but decided to weather the storm and not quit the industry he believed in. The reason why Albert started a mortgage company was because of the pain endured by his parents and himself when they got turned down for a mortgage time after time in the early 90s. Albert always had a dream; to have a house with a big yard and a dog since he was a kid, and it never happened because of unprofessional Real Estate and Mortgage Agents. Looking back, Albert realized how his parents did qualify for a home loan but due to the incompetence of the Real Estate and Mortgage Agents helping at the time, nothing ever happened. Albert committed to start a Mortgage Company from scratch and create a company that will help humble families make their American Dream a reality.

Dr. Bill welcomes two special guests—Shari Doran and Jane Hajduk dive into their journey through life's acts and their latest venture, Thee Third Act, a series that humorously tackles menopause. They recount how college friendships blossomed into creative partnerships in Hollywood, leading them to write and produce together. "Thee Third Act," they explain, is about embracing change post-menopause when women often seek new purposes beyond traditional roles like motherhood or careers. Sherry and Jane emphasize the importance of support during this transition, which they found in each other while starting their production company amidst hot flashes and hormonal shifts. They offer advice on content creation too; emphasizing persistence in social media promotion prior to launching episodes on YouTube while engaging audiences through personal connections. Monetization strategies include reaching subscriber milestones for ad revenue sharing on platforms such as YouTube.

Linda Van Kessler
Most 8-year-olds don’t dream of working in The White House, but that’s exactly what Linda Van Kessler was determined to do. At age 19 she achieved that dream by becoming a Staff Assistant to President Ford at The White House and following his term in office, Linda moved to Palm Springs, CA with him and became the Director of Scheduling and Press for President and Mrs. Ford. She went on to become Director of Scheduling and Press for Dr. Robert Schuller at the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove, CA followed by 28 years with Dr. Billy Graham working in crusades around the world. Linda then opened her own public relations, booking and management company in Beverly Hills, CA representing some of the world’s greatest talent and authors. Today Linda is the CEO of Passion 4 Life Liquid Vitamins and Minerals ( passion4lifevitamins.com ) as well as the Executive Director of Passion 4 K.I.D.S. (Kids In Desperate Situations) non-profit charity ( passion4kids.org ), both of which she has started with her husband. Linda Van Kessler spends many hours working with children. This is the cause closest to her heart. Having a profound love for children, she opens her heart and arms to countless children who need love, attention, a listening ear and someone just to talk to. Always quick to give a hug or encouraging word, Linda’s own son calls her “the Pied Piper” as wherever she goes, even on vacations in other countries, it isn’t long before she has a group of children following her around. She can often be seen holding 2 or more children per hand as they clamor to be included in the “love”. Linda and Charles are very hands on with the children they support. In an effort to bring fun and joy to their young, troubled lives, Linda and Charles take them on weekend outings bowling, to the park, to sporting events, restaurants, etc. They personally try to teach the children manners, ethics, morals and help them navigate the difficulties of life. Because many of the children come from devastating, unstable home situations, the Van Kesslers develop long-term relationships with the children and reinforce to them that they will be a constant presence in their lives for many years to come which allows them to build a level of trust that the children can depend on. With a background in media and public relations, Linda organizes all Passion 4 K.I.D.S.’ events and works tirelessly with the media to gain attention for these children in need. Linda is a Foster Youth Mentor for the County of San Diego as well as a tutor/mentor for foreign students at San Diego State University.

Meet the Mentor™ Podcast Rewind with Linda Van Kessler
Most 8-year-olds don’t dream of working in The White House, but that’s exactly what Linda Van Kessler was determined to do. At age 19 she achieved that dream by becoming a Staff Assistant to President Ford at The White House and following his term in office, Linda moved to Palm Springs, CA with him and became the Director of Scheduling and Press for President and Mrs. Ford. She went on to become Director of Scheduling and Press for Dr. Robert Schuller at the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove, CA followed by 28 years with Dr. Billy Graham working in crusades around the world. Linda then opened her own public relations, booking and management company in Beverly Hills, CA representing some of the world’s greatest talent and authors. Today Linda is the CEO of Passion 4 Life Liquid Vitamins and Minerals ( passion4lifevitamins.com ) as well as the Executive Director of Passion 4 K.I.D.S. (Kids In Desperate Situations) non-profit charity ( passion4kids.org ), both of which she has started with her husband. Linda Van Kessler spends many hours working with children. This is the cause closest to her heart. Having a profound love for children, she opens her heart and arms to countless children who need love, attention, a listening ear and someone just to talk to. Always quick to give a hug or encouraging word, Linda’s own son calls her “the Pied Piper” as wherever she goes, even on vacations in other countries, it isn’t long before she has a group of children following her around. She can often be seen holding 2 or more children per hand as they clamor to be included in the “love”. Linda and Charles are very hands on with the children they support. In an effort to bring fun and joy to their young, troubled lives, Linda and Charles take them on weekend outings bowling, to the park, to sporting events, restaurants, etc. They personally try to teach the children manners, ethics, morals and help them navigate the difficulties of life. Because many of the children come from devastating, unstable home situations, the Van Kesslers develop long-term relationships with the children and reinforce to them that they will be a constant presence in their lives for many years to come which allows them to build a level of trust that the children can depend on. With a background in media and public relations, Linda organizes all Passion 4 K.I.D.S.’ events and works tirelessly with the media to gain attention for these children in need. Linda is a Foster Youth Mentor for the County of San Diego as well as a tutor/mentor for foreign students at San Diego State University. She also served on the San Diego State University Parent Advisory Board. She also serves as a mentor for the Leap Foundation. Linda’s desire is to share with you how to set and reach a goal even when others say you can’t. She will also inspire you on

Stella Arroyave Hopkins is founder and CEO of Margam Films, LLC, an independent film company, based in Los Angeles. In 2007, Stella produced Slipstream, an Anthony Hopkins film. She was cast in the role of Gina Bonhoeffer, the wife of Felix Bonhoeffer (Anthony Hopkins). Stella is making her feature film directorial debut with Elyse (2019), which she produced and co-wrote. Stella was born in Bogota, Colombia. Her family migrated to New York City when she was 3 years old. At nineteen, following her dream of being a filmmaker, Stella moved to Los Angeles. In 1980, Stella met Swedish film director, Gunnar Hellström while filming a cameo in Mark I Love You (CBS 2-hour movie of the week). Stella understudied Hellström on the production of Raskenstam (1983), a Svenska Filminstitutet film; this was her introduction to Swedish Cinema. She attributes her inspiration as a filmmaker to Sweden’s most accomplished director Ingmar Bergman, the auteur whose films gave way to Art House Cinema. Stella used this cinematic style to create Elyse. Refusing to be restricted by story, Stella developed complex characters driven by compulsive obsessions, fears, thoughts and dreams. Influenced by Bergman’s preferred cinematic quality of the use of close ups, she captured and magnified the painful horror of Elyse’s paralyzing mental illness. In collaboration with Margam Films, Stella is developing a documentary based on the life of Sir Anthony Hopkins. Stella currently lives in Malibu, California, with her husband and their rescue cats.

WHAT IS BREATHWORK? “Breathwork is like 20 years of therapy in 1 night without saying a word.” BREATHWORK is a highly effective and powerful tool for accessing the subconscious mind and releasing any stored memories, emotions, stagnant energy, and trauma that might be trapped in the body. These energetic blockages hinder our spiritual growth, drain our energy, and affect our physical and mental well-being, which can eventually evolve from fatigue into dis-ease or illness. By oxygenating the entire body using a very specific Breathwork technique, we are able to tap into the unconscious parts of the body where these blockages reside in the form of stagnant energy. kurtisleethomas.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Nicole Simpson
Nicole Simpson is a highly motivated entrepreneur and accomplished beauty veteran in the aesthetics industry. As founder of Amethyst Beauty, she proves her innovation in the beauty space with a skin care line entirely dedicated to healing & protecting the skin from environmental toxins and skin stressors. Nicole’s passion for skin care began at the early age of five years old, when she would rummage through her mother’s vanity and attempt to read the ingredients on the labels. She would obsessively read chemicals out loud and became intrigued with how things work. Her senior year of high school was the first time Nicole made her first skin care mask – a combination of aloe vera and green tea – to treat and heal her own, newly developed cystic acne. Her steadfast curiosity & enthusiasm led her to graduate and go on to work at a major pharmaceutical company where she reverse engineered brand name consumer medications. While she was intrigued by the work, Nicole was lacking that same passion she received when she worked with skin care. In an effort to be closer to what she loved, at 24 years old, Nicole went back to school to become a trained aesthetician. However, because of her background, she approached skin care differently – rather than just going through the standard steps, Nicole listened to each skin’s needs and found that when she gave the skin what it needed, it healed itself. When she transitioned to medical aesthetics, Nicole’s career catapulted to a new level. Besides her reputation among clients, Nicole captured the attention of top doctors who invited her to educate their staff on her effective skin care approach. Her career took another turn, when a rep for the Pierre-Fabre brand, Glytone, encouraged her to move into the education side of skin care in order to inspire and share knowledge with other aestheticians and dermatologists. From there, she moved on to become the AVP of Global Education and Business Development at SkinCeuticals/L’Oreal. There, Nicole led and managed all international business development and education initiatives for the brand across 37 markets. Nicole attributes the creation of Amethyst to a dream she had. When it comes to formulating skin care, she went back to her roots to develop a formula that actually works, and helps the skin heal itself from environmental toxins and stressors. Overtime, all the free radicals (AKA inflammation) and toxins exposed to the skin build up, because the body can only neutralize itself and heal its skin cells at a certain pace. When that accumulation happens, skin cells oxidize causing harmful reactions as severe as skin cancer. As the environment continues to change rapidly, Nicole strives to offer products that can help consumers augment their current skin routine & products, to ensure the skin is fully covered and protected from the declining environment. Just like the Amethyst stone is known for its healing properties, Amethyst B

Talor Zamir
Talor Zamir is a podcast host, entrepreneur & the CEO of Peak Performance - a leader in organic superfood powders, essential organic supplements, protein powder and organic coffee. In 2013, Talor was wracked with intense, inexplicable pain and inflammation that was putting his health, his hope, and his family’s financial future in danger. He couldn’t type more than a couple sentences without feeling massive pain throughout his arms. Desperate for relief, or even an answer, he turned to multiple medical professionals, both mainstream and alternative, to no avail. He deteriorated to the point where he could no longer use a keyboard, and his anxiety about his ability to support his family escalated to panic. Finding Wisdom and Guidance in Unexpected Places Talor refused to give up, and with his family’s unwavering encouragement, he eventually came to the all-important realization that IN flammation comes from IN side of you. He realized that he was going about this all wrong. He was looking for solutions outside himself (pain relief creams, braces, chiropractors, and pain relief devices) but this problem of inflammation was originating from the inside. This realization was an epiphany, and as he started to change what he put in his body and mind, a new understanding came, and everything began to change. The Adventure of a Lifetime What began as a crucible he would never wish on his worst enemy became the adventure of a lifetime, a Hero’s Journey, if you will. He returned from his quest, victorious, having been led to the solutions he had all along been seeking. How he successfully put out the fire of pain and inflammation is why he created Peak Performance. He now has a new quest: to help others transform their health and life in the same way he did.

To make that vision happen, Sergey has a three horizon plan, each leading to a progressively longer lifespan: Horizon 1 - living a healthy life to age 100, Horizon 2 - AI to help us extend our lifespans by extra years on top of that (10-25), and ultimately, Horizon 3 - even more radical innovations and advancements that can extend a lifespan to 200 years (maybe more!). https://sergeyyoung.com/ Facebook: @SergeyYoung200 Order “10 Simple Principles” here: https://amzn.to/3bY8Afa Learn more about your ad choices.

Linda Van Kessler
Most 8-year-olds don’t dream of working in The White House, but that’s exactly what Linda Van Kessler was determined to do. At age 19 she achieved that dream by becoming a Staff Assistant to President Ford at The White House and following his term in office, Linda moved to Palm Springs, CA with him and became the Director of Scheduling and Press for President and Mrs. Ford. She went on to become Director of Scheduling and Press for Dr. Robert Schuller at the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove, CA followed by 28 years with Dr. Billy Graham working in crusades around the world. Linda then opened her own public relations, booking and management company in Beverly Hills, CA representing some of the world’s greatest talent and authors. Today Linda is the CEO of Passion 4 Life Liquid Vitamins and Minerals ( passion4lifevitamins.com ) as well as the Executive Director of Passion 4 K.I.D.S. (Kids In Desperate Situations) non-profit charity ( passion4kids.org ), both of which she has started with her husband. Linda Van Kessler spends many hours working with children. This is the cause closest to her heart. Having a profound love for children, she opens her heart and arms to countless children who need love, attention, a listening ear and someone just to talk to. Always quick to give a hug or encouraging word, Linda’s own son calls her “the Pied Piper” as wherever she goes, even on vacations in other countries, it isn’t long before she has a group of children following her around. She can often be seen holding 2 or more children per hand as they clamor to be included in the “love”. Linda and Charles are very hands on with the children they support. In an effort to bring fun and joy to their young, troubled lives, Linda and Charles take them on weekend outings bowling, to the park, to sporting events, restaurants, etc. They personally try to teach the children manners, ethics, morals and help them navigate the difficulties of life. Because many of the children come from devastating, unstable home situations, the Van Kesslers develop long-term relationships with the children and reinforce to them that they will be a constant presence in their lives for many years to come which allows them to build a level of trust that the children can depend on. With a background in media and public relations, Linda organizes all Passion 4 K.I.D.S.’ events and works tirelessly with the media to gain attention for these children in need. Linda is a Foster Youth Mentor for the County of San Diego as well as a tutor/mentor for foreign students at San Diego State University. She also served on the San Diego State University Parent Advisory Board. She also serves as a mentor for the Leap Foundation. Linda’s desire is to share with you how to set and reach a goal even when others say you can’t. She will also inspire you on
