PIPE DREAM PODCAST

My synopsis after the completion of a 2 week Pre-Training of my current coaching group embarking on their first Quarter experience in what I call the Apprenticeship Arena. These men started for various reasons and come from different construction backgrounds.  Their reasons are personal to them and won't be shared but what I will share is what the common themes were. When the one of the first...

My current coaching client and my Mentor did a podcast not too long ago about the process and where my client came from. I thought it was an absolutely amazing interview and figured my listeners would like to hear this.  Where this client has come from and where he is going is so amazing to watch and hearing his journey from his lens still inspires me to keep pushing him to let go of the old...

Back in 2007 and 2008 it was absolutely so busy.⁣ ⁣  The other welder and I decided it was time to WOBBLE for more money, ⁣ ⁣  I was physically vibrating when we were discussing our terms...⁣ ⁣  actually I was angry.⁣ ⁣  I had no idea why but I do now.⁣ ⁣  I was angry because I had no idea how to ask for what I wanted in my marriage and others areas of my life so why would...

There is an epidemic on Tik Tok and other social media platforms of MEN reaching out for help. Help for not having their kids during legal battles. Help for going through a divorce. Help for losing their job or a project being delayed and living one missed paycheck away from losing it all. As much as I respect these Men for reaching out, I am noticing a trend. The trend I am noticing is there is n...

After recently being fired by Sirius XM, Jason Ellis, tells me how how this is definitely NOT his lowest point.  From where he came from in Australia to millions of dollars to losing that revenue in a moment, the man knows how to PIVOT and I am personally excited to see this comeback!  Ellis has his podcast, The Jason Ellis Show, now launched by the time this with airs with sponsors and...

Due to an extraordinarily complex medical issues in her first semester of college she had to make the choice, to let the disease WIN or choose to be grateful for the disease and create her own REALITY wher...

Going from Retail to Survey Party Chief to Independent Artist Consultant has been the path of Jesse Curtis. All he knew was he felt the need to make more money when he was offered a starting position as rod man on a pipeline  and took it.  During that time he got a girlfriend and worked all over the country.  Now in my experience, Surveyors can be a crazy bunch and it seems that Jes...

There are certain things we choose to do everyday. Some of them help us....some of them hinder us. The things that we think are helping us and making us feel good on a daily basis may actually be hindering us. The parable of the day.... WHAT YOU DO AFFECTS TOMORROW is more to help you realize that you are seeking instant gratification. The lesson of the day.... IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT YOU CHOOSE T...

Dr. Monique Andrews and Dr. Tamara MacIntyre started The Prana Foundation after necessity. They were asked to leave their positions doing what they thought were their dream jobs in California.

They pulled themselves of th...

I decided to reach out to Alaya Rain to be on the podcast since trying to navigate dating after after 17 years with the same person and have just not been able to figure things out.  What we did end up talking about was what are some ways we can keep the relationships we have be it marriages or dating while living this oilfield lifestyle.  There is so much value in what she discusses and...

I have found that working on the road is the quickest way to let your body go in the midst of 12-16hr days,⁣ ⁣  poor food choices bouncing from town to town,⁣ ⁣  excuses to not work out coming from all over, ⁣ ⁣  and so many more excuses why we let our bodies go to hell in the pursuit of our dream of Freedom coming from the working the TRADES and OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY. ⁣ ⁣  Daniel DeBrock is a stre...

Today's guest is someone very special to me.  She was one of the first mentors that I looked to when I wanted to start selling myself online and the message we are spreading in this space of personal development in the Oil and Gas space.

Has this ever happened? You wake up in the morning… You come back from lunch to work… And you just have this feeling of I am done! I have had enough. In the oilpatch, we call this DRAGGING UP. You are to the point where you cannot take anymore and just say I am done and quit. Or another offer comes and you don’t even think and take it to leave the job or contract you currently have. Living this li...

I have been excited for interviews before but not like this one.  The accomplishments that Chelsey has been able to crush to date have been nothing pure inspiring and amazing in the Oil/Gas sector, pharmaceuticals and now in a new start up venture with Chiron Group.  www.chirongroup.ca All of this started in the concrete industry where she learned some valuable lessons where people shortly mistake...

Had a discussion with an plant operator today onsite and the discussion of retirement came up. In a matter of seconds, we are talking about his divorce and now how he needs to work till he is 80 because of the financial ruin this left him in. Should have been a good conversation topic when this came up discussing how another operator is retiring in a couple of weeks but I was wrong. What this conv...

Almost ran over a gopher today. That little bastard had a choice, Keep going or look up and see what was coming at him. Just like ass down heads up at work. How many times do you look up from the grind to see what is actually going on? Most of us are really good at making money… But do you ever look up to see what is truly going on? Are you overweight? Do you do anything to fill your cup? Is your...

Being a long weekend this past weekend, families were abundant in the town I am in and I was triggered by a family having breakfast one morning at the hotel.  We do not get weekends off like most people. We do not get vacations like most people either.  I was triggered because I was reminded of all of the vacations we never took. I was triggered because of all the memories we made when t...
