(00:00):
Have you ever looked at yourselfin the mirror and not being
happy with what you saw? Were you not happy with your
physical appearance? The many, many years I had this
fear of judgement of other people, I was programmed myself
from being bullied or from the names skinny or lanky or you
need to eat some more food. So what I'm doing is I'm
overeating more because I've gotthis conscious perception of
(00:20):
like, well, I don't want to be too skinny.
Whatever the fuck happened, happened.
It's my job to fix myself. It's my responsibility to
overcome my own trauma, overcomemy own fees, overcome my own
insecurities, overcome my own doubts.
Step up, wake up and get the fuck up and change your life.
But if you feel like you struggle with keeping yourself
accountable and being disciplined with what you eat,
(00:41):
then. Since 2018, I've helped
thousands of people heal childhood trauma, overcome
addiction, get off their anxietyand depression medication, and
(01:01):
finally take control of their lives.
Many have gone on to start theirown business and become
speakers, coaches, and leaders who are now transforming lives
every single day. I've built a global community
with over 3.5 million people spoken on stages all over the
world, and now I want to help you to do the same.
If you've ever dreamed of becoming a Certified Life Coach,

making a difference, and building a life of purpose and
freedom, this is your moment. The LMP Coaching Institute is

Welcome to this podcast episode and I hope you're doing great.
Now, if you want to become a better version of yourself, you
(01:45):
want to take control of your mind, if you want to become more
disciplined, then why don't you join me on my latest fasting
expedition? That's like Austin Powers
expedition, right? He said expedition, right?
This journey, right? So every Thursday I'm doing some
fasting and it's a juice fast. You can choose to do water fast
if you want. But if you want to join us on
(02:05):
this journey, I've created a WhatsApp community where we can
keep each other accountable, stay connected.
Every Thursday I'm doing it. So there's a link below this
video on YouTube, YouTube, clickthe WhatsApp community link,
join us on WhatsApp. And I'm super excited to do this
because if there's anything thatwe need in our life is to be a
little bit more disciplined withfood.
(02:25):
You know, it's not a time for usto put on more weight, to be
heavier, to feel like shit. It's a time for us to take our
power back. And this is what I love about it
because I know myself that actually fasting helps you to
feel more mental clarity and youfeel more energetic, which is
weird, but it's true, you know? And I've experienced it in the
past because I've done fasting in the past.
(02:45):
And then sometimes I don't eat for, you know, a day or
whatever, just because I'm too busy, you know, but I can feel
it, you know, more food, the more energy your body has to
burn because that's the process of the food.
So just as an introduction to this podcast, you know, if you
want to take your power back, join my WhatsApp community.
Of course, you can do it on yourown.
But if you feel like you struggle with keeping yourself
(03:08):
accountable and being disciplined with what you eat,
then, you know, surround yourself with a community that
is going to help you to achieve that goal.
And that's what I've learnt overthe years as well with a journey
of success. You know, wherever you surround
yourself with is what you're going to feed off, what you're
going to learn, what you're going to become.
So yeah, take action guys. I'm here to support you in this
(03:28):
journey as well. And I think it's a great
especially the fact that like, yeah, like normally I'm my old
trauma, like this actually leadsinto trauma, you know, was my
own insecurities of how I looked.
And I think that, yeah, this is going to be relatable to you as
well now, because have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror
(03:49):
and not being happy with what you saw, you know, where you're
not happy with your physical appearance?
And for myself personally, it's been a long time.
I have like, just let me know inthe in the chat like what's up,
Linda? Great to see you guys.
And by the way, TikTok Instagram, if you guys are
watching and you want to watch on YouTube, I'm actually live on
YouTube right now. So if you want to have a better
(04:11):
screen, bigger screen, maybe you're watching on TV or
something like that, jump on YouTube.
Let us know you're here in the comments.
All right. But for many, many years I had
this fear, I think of or judgement of other people.
You know, I was programmed myself from being bullied or
from the names, you know, skinnyor lanky or you need to eat some
more food or you know, like you need to put some more meat on
(04:33):
those bones. Just shit like that.
You know, when I was young and just hearing that constantly,
even like Mum, like you're at the dinner table, you can't
leave the dinner table until youfinish your food.
And fucking I don't want to eat the fucking food.
I wasn't hungry or I didn't likethe food or whatever the fuck it
was like. And I was forced to like, no,
(04:54):
you can't leave the table until you finish your food.
I remember it very, very clearly.
But then it just was the fact that, you know, I was a very
skinny and lanky boy, you know, so slowly, slowly as I kept
hearing these lanky. And I do remember my mom.
And actually I had a healing moment with my mom back in
2020-2021 when I had to move back to my parents house.
(05:18):
Funny enough, I told my mom, I said, you know, when I was that
young 1314 year old boy and I wanted to play soccer.
And you told me no, you know, I remember that moment and I said
to her, I wanted to play soccer.And she said no, you can't
because you're too skinny. And if you go out on the field,
(05:39):
the other kids are going to break your bones, you know, So
you can see that she kind of hada bit of fear, maybe a lot of
fear that had that, that she had.
Or maybe she, I guess, couldn't deal with, you know, another
responsibility of like, she got 4 kids already.
She's trying to live her life, but yet her little boy's son is
(06:00):
trying to play soccer and she didn't have the time to go to
the fucking soccer on The Saturdays and she doesn't want
me to play. So she just made up an excuse,
whatever it was, right? But I had this moment with her
in 2020 or 2021 when I mentionedit to, I said, you know, that
moment like was one of the moments that I never forget
because it broke me and it hurt me.
(06:23):
And yeah, it just like it. It highlighted that you have a
problem, you know, and if you'rewatching on YouTube, like let us
know in the comments if you can relate.
But it really, really highlighted that there was some
sort of problem with me that, you know, yeah, I'm too skinny
or I'm not strong enough. You know, like saying, oh, if
you play on the field, you're, you're the other kids are going
(06:44):
to break your bones. Like, what the fuck is that
saying? Well, it's clearly identifying
that you are weak and that you have a problem, you know, but
rightly so. Like what the fuck does the mom
have to do? She's trying to protect the
fucking hands, the kids, the ducklings, you know, like any
mother, What do they do? They protect their children.
(07:06):
So naturally what she was doing was just protecting me, not
realising that she was hurting me at the same time, but not
realising, who knows, maybe she was doing the fucking right
thing, She was actually protecting me.
Maybe if I did go and play, I would have fucking broken my
leg. Who knows, like I maybe I
wouldn't have even been able to be the person I am today because
I would have had any injuries orsome shit, you know?
(07:29):
But no matter what, I guess it'sthe awareness of, you know,
understanding the journey of your childhood trauma, the
journey of how you were parented, the journey of all
these experiences that you've been through.
And then not kind of looking back at your parents and
actually judging them because I used to, you know, I used to
(07:49):
judge them. I used to think that it was all
of their fault. And it's their fault that I'm
like this. And it's their fault that I'm
not successful. And it's their fault that I have
so much low self confidence or low self worth or whatever, you
know, And sure, of course I can look at the way I was parented
and I can find faults if I want to, you know, or I can just have
(08:10):
a different mindset and go whatever the fuck happened,
happened. And now as a grown adult and at
this level of awareness that I have, well, I'm just, it's my
job to fix myself. You know, it's my responsibility
to overcome my own trauma, overcome my own fees, overcome
my own insecurities, overcome myown doubts, you know, overcome
(08:33):
my own lack of belief in myself,whatever.
You know, of course it would have been nice to have had more
encouragement, more support, more love, you know, more
attention, like, you know, more belief in me.
You know, I can sit there and blame and fucking say, you know,
you should have done this or youshould have believed in me more.
(08:53):
You should have had my back moreor you should have loved me
more. You should have spent more time
with me and you should have donethis and you should have done
that, should have, would have, could have fucking whatever.
You know what I mean? Like, what the fuck is that
going to do? How's that going to change shit
now? It's not, you know, so it's your
responsibility to step up, wake up and get the fuck up and
change your life, you know, and if you're not willing to do it,
(09:15):
well, stop then. What can we expect from someone
who doesn't want to deal with their trauma or doesn't want to
deal with the fact that they're not living in their potential,
they're not living the life thatthey could be living?
What do we do with people like that?
You know, do we have pity on them?
Do we continue like, oh, well, you know, yeah, that's a really
sad story, you know, Like, oh, well, you know, yeah, life is
(09:37):
really fucked up now because of what you went through.
And that's just where you are right now.
So I guess that's what you got to live with, you know, like you
got to eventually, like, get thefuck over, right?
With all due respect, you know, I'm fucking conscious of what
I'm speaking and what I'm saying, and I'm not pointing the
finger at you specifically and trying to put you down by going
(09:57):
Get the fuck over it and see it.Actually, I'm fucking very
switched on. I know what I'm saying, right?
But I'm just making you a littlebit more aware of like
eventually get the fuck out of your own way, eventually stop
complaining, eventually stop pointing the finger, eventually
stop blaming, eventually get to a point.
And maybe you're not at that point yet.
(10:18):
Maybe you got to keep going, youknow, maybe you got to keep
suffering a little bit more. Maybe you got to keep being in
your own way a little bit more. Maybe you got to keep
surrounding yourself with the fucking people that you've been
surrounding yourself with, whichare causing the lack of
inspiration in your life as to the reason why you don't get off
your fucking asking and make thechanges that you need to make in
your life so you can fucking be free.
(10:39):
Maybe that's just the case. Maybe that's how it is for you,
you know, Or maybe this episode wakes you up.
Maybe this episode inspires you to go shit.
You know, it's my responsibility.
It's my healing and my growth and my evolution is my
responsibility. And I think it's probably one of
the best things you can ever do,You know, realise that no one is
(11:03):
coming to save you. Not fucking Batman, not bloody
some, you know, imaginary creature or superhero that comes
out of fucking thin air and all of a sudden, you know, they save
you. Even though that sounds like a
nice story, you know, Superman'sgoing to fire out and go, oh, I
came to save you and shit, man, you know, you know, not some
(11:23):
made up fairy tale freaking uncle or auntie's going to
appear and go, here's all the money that you need.
You're going to be all fine. You know, you've got to show up
and you've got to make some changes.
And if there's anything that I've learnt is that.
And you know what, this has definitely been one of the
inspirations for my own success and perseverance and never give
(11:44):
up attitude is because as much as you may have family members
that want to help you, you know,and if you do, it's a blessing,
you know, but there's something else, you know, and I'm very
grateful because I've had all myfamily help me in some way,
shape or form. And I basically return the
favour. You know, I do give back.
(12:06):
I give back a lot. And I have, you know, but I
don't know about you. And, you know, you tell me
whether you can relate and whether this relate like
resonates. And obviously it's different if
you're in a, you know, if you'remarried, like, you know, you
know, like my wife likes to be like, you know, every time we
(12:26):
say a prayer, you know, before we eat, you know, she always
says, you know, and thank you God for my husband who provides
for us, you know, and and I'm grateful for that.
So it's not the point where, youknow, there's something about,
you know, doing it and not having to rely on anyone else in
(12:50):
a sense, you know what I mean? But again, when you're married,
you know, you have, you know, the parts of the relationship
that you put that you play, you know, like I know my, I know
what I know my role. I know like what I'm doing in
the relationship, you know, and my wife knows her role too.
And we complement each other andit's a blessing, right?
(13:13):
You know, there's something about not having to rely on
people for you to survive. You know, it's knowing that you
are disciplined enough and you are aware enough and you went
and you did it for yourself. But when you're married, it's
different. Of course.
You know, it's not like my wife's like, oh, I don't do
(13:34):
anything. My wife, my husband, he just
makes all the money and I'm justlike doing whatever.
It's like, Nah, man. She does the things that she
needs to do and she does a lot. So and again, when you're in any
relationship, you know, you can feel it, you know, how much am I
giving? How much am I receiving?
How much are you giving? How much are they giving?
So you know, you pay attention to the balance, you know, but
(13:57):
again, going back to what I'm talking about, you know, is
there is just something about, you know, and, and what is it?
Let's, let's dive deeper into it.
What is it about this nature of,you know, not being someone who
who, who needs other people so that they can?
And of course it happens sometimes.
Listen, man, I was fucking brokeafter 2020.
(14:19):
I worked with his coach. I got scammed.
I had no money left at the end of the year, like literally
thousands of dollars. And I had to call.
I remember calling my brother inlaw who I've been so inspired by
recently because he's on a 28 day fast and he's actually
inspired me to open up this fasting community.
So if you're interested in doingsome fasting every week, I do it
every Thursday. Click the link below.
Join our WhatsApp community because you can.
(14:41):
We can stay accountable, help you stay accountable so you can
get healthier, lose some weight,right?
Get control of your mind and getbecome more disciplined.
But he's on a, he's doing a 28 day fast.
That's ridiculous, right? Because he was getting
overweight, you know, and he waslike, fuck, I'm not waiting till
I have a heart attack. I'm fucking fasting right now.
I'm doing a juice fast 28 days. I'm going to lose fucking
(15:02):
whatever I've lost. He's lost like 15 kilos.
He was 114 or 15 kilos. Now he's not under 100 kilos.
And so if, you know, it's doing that, but I remember calling him
in 2020, end of 2020, I had no money left.
And I, I called him and I was like, can you lend me $500, you
know, And that was a shit feeling.
(15:25):
You know, it really was, it was a shit feeling to have to borrow
money because I didn't have my own, you know.
So again, like, it's a blessing to.
Yeah, I mean, I always say it's a blessing to be alive.
It's a blessing. It's a blessing to do what I do.
But at the same time, like, it'sa blessing.
(15:47):
Yeah, it is a blessing. It's it's I'm so honoured to be
coaching people. I'm so grateful for my life to
be doing podcasts, to be speaking, to be inspiring so
many people, working with so many amazing people, you know,
my coaching programmes. But you're the one that makes,
and that's why I say, man, you're the one that makes your
(16:08):
life a blessing as well. It's a blessing, but you're the
one that makes it a blessing, you know, like you're the
creator of your reality. You see, if you can't control
what you shove in your mouth, well then how the fuck can you
control your life, you know? And so let me go take you back
(16:28):
to the trauma. I digressed a little bit if
you're paying attention, becauseI was talking about my physical
appearance. I was talking about the
insecurities. And I'm just asking you a
question now. Like have you ever felt
uncomfortable looking at your own body?
Have you ever felt have you everlooked at yourself in the mirror
and you're like, I don't like what I see?
Or have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror and
(16:48):
because of all the judgements ofother people saying that you're
fat, you're ugly, you're this, you're that you got rolls your
fucking neck, whatever, like your, your stomach or your ass,
whatever. Like has has anyone ever judged
you to the point where now when you look at yourself in the
mirror, you're actually not ableto actually love yourself and
(17:10):
accept yourself? You're actually hearing the
voices of those people who have been judging you.
OK, I see some of the people on Instagram saying yes, how about
Tiktok? I'm asking you guys a question
too. Let me know in the comments.
Like have you ever? I'm on YouTube as well and
leaves the grass says every fucking day Nae nae says me,
(17:30):
myself and I anyone else on on YouTube.
I made a decision to quit drinking alcohol and sodas for
the last two months on That's awesome keep going.
So this is the thing right with this whole like physical
appearance. So this is what happened for me.
I've learned as well that the trauma response for me was
(17:50):
emotional eating and was overeating because throughout my
whole like, I guess life, I've always wanted to put on weight.
It's funny, Hey, like some of usare like, fucking hell, I want
to lose some weight. I'm fucking struggling to lose
weight. I can't lose weight.
And there's people out there that are like skinny as shit and
they're trying to put on weight,but they can't, you know, their
(18:13):
metabolism is just designed likethat and they just can't put on
weight. You know, it just doesn't
happen. No matter how many fucking Big
Macs, burgers, fucking fries, hot dogs, like no matter how how
many fucking Domino's or Pizza Hut or fucking pizzas you have,
you never put on weight. And that was like my reality for
(18:33):
so many years. And I was like, oh, this is
fucking, I guess I'm lucky, you know, I guess I'm lucky.
I can eat whatever the fuck I want and I never put on weight.
Wow, right. And this is as I've like grown
into my 30s and now 35 and now I'm 41, like over the 30s.
Like I had put on a little bit of a gut, you know, so I can you
(18:57):
can see that there's but I likedit, you know, because it made me
feel a little bit more full. You know, it made me like round
up a little bit where I was like, OK, cool, now I've got a
bit of an ass. That was the biggest thing.
Fucking hell, I have an obsession with ass.
The asses like my fucking ass, you know, like there's this
(19:18):
obsession. Why?
Where did the obsession come from?
Because I never had one. Not that I didn't have one
because I have to go to fucking Chuck of shit.
I've got to go to the toilet, ofcourse, got to fucking ass.
But the shape of it, you know, And you know, some people can
go, OK, too much information or whatever, but I don't give a
fuck. I don't care.
Like we're talking. You're listening.
If you value this podcast episode, you think it's going to
inspire someone or fucking shareit with some friends.
(20:07):
His body was Italian, but his body was so proportioned.
It was so fucking like, I was like, wow, like, you know, just
ass fucking nice chest, all thisstuff masculine, you know.
So and then when you don't have that, what happens?
And then when you don't have confidence in yourself and you
don't feel good within yourself and you're constantly being
(20:27):
judged about how you look and that you're too skinny and this
and that. So and then you're looking at
other people and then you make up your own mind in your brain
of like, where does your focus goes?
Your focus is like, Oh my gosh, like there's something wrong
with me, you know? So for me, it this whole like
body weight and like the physical appearance has been a
(20:50):
trauma for me all my life, you know, And funny enough, you
know, I just recently, if you noticed on my Instagram, I did a
video of me with my shirt off and I danced and I was like, I
don't give a fuck what you think.
I'm just going to dance. I don't care.
I'm taking my shirt off because yeah, part of the message is I
don't care what you think and I'm just going to be me, you
(21:11):
know? But hey, listen man, like I'm
not doing this fasting communityand telling you to join on
WhatsApp for no reason. Like I'm on a mission and I
don't know if you want to join me, but I'm on a mission the
next three months, like October.I know this podcast will
probably be released in a week'stime or a week and a half,
whatever, but October, November,December, the next three months
(21:32):
is time to fucking get it. Like, if there's ever been a
time where I'm going to become the best freaking version of
myself, a version of myself thatI've never been before, it's
right now, you know? It's really time to get serious,
and especially with eating, because eating has never been
something that I'm just like, Ohyeah, I need to slow down.
(21:52):
You know what I mean? The reason why, if we're talking
about transparency right now, isbecause I want to always have a
bit of a gut because I don't want to be too skinny, right?
Because I don't want people to judge me.
So what I'm doing is I'm overeating more because I've got
this conscious perception of like, well, I don't want to be
too skinny because then I'm going to have to like, maybe get
(22:14):
smaller pants and then people are going to judge me again from
when I was young. So I have this programmed
subconscious fear that Luke doesn't want to go back to being
like that because when he was like that, he wasn't accepted.
Are we making a breakthrough right now?
Like let me know in the chat. Are you guys picking up
(22:35):
understanding? Like what I'm sharing?
Is this making sense to you? Is anyone else relating like, to
what I'm talking about? Because like, I've known this
for a while, but I wasn't able to explain it properly, you
know? So this is where now I'm like,
and This is why it takes a little bit of time, you know,
like as you grow older, you start to become a little bit
(22:56):
more wiser, a little bit more confident, a little bit more
like, you know, what is actuallyhappening with myself, You know,
who am I? What am I blocking?
What am I doing? You know, because it's like, Oh
no, don't do fasting because you're going to lose 5 kilos,
you're going to lose a bit of weight and then you're going to
be skinny again or whatever, youknow.
So I'm very blessed as well because again, the other fee was
(23:18):
like, Oh my gosh. Because when I was younger, you
know, I knew my skinny frame, even though it was tall, I knew
that, you know, I how I looked and all that kind of stuff.
So I used to cover it up, baggy pants, baggy shirt.
I used to think that depending on the car that I drove was
dependent on what kind of girls I would attract.
So I was like, well, nice car, I'll get nice skills.
(23:39):
Didn't even fucking work that way.
There was a complete lack of confidence that I had for such a
long time that no matter how fucking nice my car was, the
girl never came because I never fucking had the confidence to go
up to girls anyway, you know? So it's not about the car, it's
about fucking you, right? So I was always hiding myself,
(24:04):
you know, for so many years. And so now we get to this place
of like, wow, so you know, don'tfast because and that's why I
got triggered so bad when I was living at my mum's.
And I did that three day water fast.
And funny enough, that moment triggered the transformational
module that is about healing your inner child.
(24:27):
In my coaching programme, my 20 week coaching programme, it came
from that moment with my mum, you know, and that's why it's so
powerful because it heals your trauma, your childhood trauma,
you know, you go through a journey of conscious re
parenting, re parenting yourself, identifying the mother
wound and the father wound. And I remember living with my
mom and I finished the water fast.
(24:48):
I think I just finished it. I did a three day alkaline water
fast. And then I had, I just came back
from China. So I was already skinny.
I was AI was vegetarian. Then I went to being a vegan for
like 3 or 4 months and then thatmoment because I did that three
day water fast because I had blood in my stool.
So I wanted to heal, heal that. And I truly, truly believed that
(25:11):
you are your own best doctor. And when I came back from China,
I was like, no, there's no, I'm not going to do doctors.
I don't believe in them. You know, I've lost trust in the
system. I am going to heal myself.
I'm going to heal my own body. And the best way to do it is to
fast and stop eating because what's killing us is the food.
How do we become healthier? Stop fucking eating, right?
(25:32):
And so I stopped eating for three days.
And then when I stopped eating for three days, guess what?
I lost even more weight. So there I was with my mum in
the house. I walked down the steps.
There's like the second level ofthe, it's a one story house.
But then there's a second level of like 2 steps.
(25:53):
And I walked down the steps and I'm walking and my mum comes
behind me because maybe she was coming from another room.
And like, she pulls the back of my pants and she's like, come
on, man, put some weight on. Like, you know, your pants are
falling down. Like that moment was probably
(26:16):
one of the worst triggers I've ever experienced in my life.
At 35 years old. It was like a shock, like there
was something, it was like I wasbeing electrocuted in my body.
My whole fucking body started just it was on fire, you know,
(26:38):
and I couldn't even say anything.
I was in shock. Like literally fight or flight
or fright, whatever you call it,whatever, like.
And my response was I turned around and I'd, I would have
said go fuck yourself or fuck off or something like that
because I had no, I lost controland I went into my room and I
(27:00):
slammed the door. And for the next 7 days, guys, I
kid you not, this is what I wentthrough for the next 7 days.
And this is 2020. So I was already Luke mine
power. I lost Luke mine power like that
version of me that I had become disappeared and I became a child
(27:20):
again. I became a hurt, broken,
misunderstood, confused child at30 fucking five guys.
Like it was incomprehensible right now to think about
something like that that that's possible.
But that's what happened. You know, I was like it lying on
(27:40):
the bed, like confused, trying to process my emotions, trying
to process like what is going on?
Why do I feel this way? Why is this happening?
You know, and for the next 7 days, I was basically depressed,
you know, I would only come out to eat something.
(28:01):
I would, I would, I stopped talking to my mom like I, when I
would see her in the house, I wouldn't even say anything, you
know, and, but that was the inspiration for my 20 week
coaching programme that moment. Because what happened after that
is I was on YouTube and I was sitting there and actually,
(28:22):
that's when I think I started learning from Peter Crone,
which, you know, if you know Peter Crone, he's extraordinary.
I did a podcast episode with himin 2023.
It's on my podcast channel on YouTube.
If you want to watch it, just type in Peter Crone and Luke
mind power. Listen to that episode because
we actually talked about triggers and he has such a
(28:43):
profound mindset on emotional triggers and, and awareness.
So listen to that. But that was the moment there
where I also started learning from Lisa Romano.
If you haven't heard of Lisa Romano, have a look at her on
Instagram as well. But she had a lot on her YouTube
channel about narcissistic abuse, narcissism, codependency.
(29:05):
But I found content from her about healing your inner child
and the moment because I was looking for answers.
Like fuck, this is what you're supposed to be doing.
Like if you're getting triggered, if you're not
understanding your emotions, if you're not understanding, like
what's going on with my body, like why do I react like that?
What's happening? You know, because that's how it
(29:26):
was for me all my life. I was just like constantly in
fear and not understanding. Why do I go red?
Why do I blush? Why do I get intimidated by
people? Why, why when people talk to me
sometimes and they say words, doI not understand what the fuck's
going on? And I just feel embarrassed, you
know, like I couldn't get it. It fucking hurt me for so many
years. And then you, you wonder, why
(29:47):
does Luke swear so much? Why does Luke do does what he
does? Why does Luke dance like that?
Why does Luke talk like that? Like this is the episode where
you under fucking stand what I've been through, who I am, how
I felt for so many years. And even still, if you listen to
this shit, you still probably won't understand because you've
(30:08):
never felt what I've felt. And I hope that by listening to
this, maybe you will comprehend and understand that no one ever
will be able to understand your fucking pain.
No one, just you, and you don't need other people to fucking
understand, but you need to understand because if you don't,
(30:29):
you live your life fucking sleeping and confused and
feeling like the world is fucking out to get you.
Instead, you fucking take responsibility for your shit and
you figure yourself out. So that was when actually.
And that's why your triggers areteachers, you know, but your
triggers are also gifts. If you lean in, The question is,
(30:50):
are you willing to lean in instead of ignoring it and not
trying to understand it, processit, you know?
And now I look at him like, wow,mum, thanks for giving me the
blessing, you know, thanks for triggering the shit out of me
because you forced me to try to understand myself.
You forced me to research myself.
(31:12):
You forced me to look deeper into what's the actual problem,
What's the reaction from what's going on at 35.
It was disgusting. Like it felt so uncomfortable.
But that shows my heightened sensitivity.
You know, I'm a sensitive guy. I'm an emotional guy.
(31:33):
I'm OK with being vulnerable andI don't give a fuck if there's
any other masculine guy or masculine fucking macho this and
that. Oh, don't show your emotions and
you know, and you don't be vulnerable and you have to be
strong. And of course I'm fucking
strong, but I'm going to fuckingtalk about my emotions and my
feelings and I don't give a shitabout whether you fucking say
(31:56):
oh, that's not masculine or fuckoff, you know.
So that took me down this path of really understanding like
myself, which I'm still learning, funny enough.
You know, I don't have it all figured out and I don't fucking
want to. This is the whole life of your
life, of the journey of life of,you know, asking better
(32:20):
questions, looking deeper into your own character and behaviour
and personality and who you are,understanding yourself better.
Why the fuck not? You know, if you want, you'll
learn a lot. And of course you don't have to
because you don't have to do shit.
You know, if being yourself likethat, the way you are, the way
you've been, the way you show up, the way you do things is
satisfying for you and it's fulfilling for you, well,
(32:42):
fucking keep doing it. You know, And most importantly,
you wouldn't even be listening to this podcast any fucking way
if you were just like going to be like, I don't give a fuck.
I'm just staying like this. Exactly.
You wouldn't be listening to this.
You're not on this fucking vibrational frequency anyway.
So I know that I'm talking to anyone who's listening to these
podcasts, whether you're on TikTok, YouTube, Instagram,
(33:03):
wherever you're listening to this.
I know that you're tapped in, whether you're on LinkedIn,
whether you're on Rumble, wherever the fuck you're
listening, iHeartRadio, Apple podcasts, Spotify, shout out to
everyone all over all the platforms that you're listening
to these podcasts. Because I know that actually, I
don't even need to say that because no one who doesn't want
to grow would be listening to this fucking podcast.
You're only listening to this because you want to become a
(33:23):
better version of yourself and you want to grow and evolve,
heal, you know, So just going back to this whole healing thing
because I'm excited about this now because I'm fucking like at
this level, you know, of life oflike, yeah, caring less and
being healthier, being better, you know, because I mean, what's
my why now? My why is being a healthier
(33:46):
husband, you know, my why is being a healthier dad, my kids
that are coming, you know what Imean?
So this is my preparation for that, right?
So then should I still continue to like have this fear of like,
oh, you know, don't lose weight,Luke, don't do this fasting
because if you do this fasting, it'll lose weight and then like
(34:07):
people going to judge you again.And then you know, like, right.
So there was this fear, but that's where the healing and
becoming aware came from, from those moments.
And I got through that seven days and then there was a few
more triggers with my mum. But it's, it's amazing how
things have come full circle now.
And you know, me and my mum, if you listen to my podcast early
(34:31):
on, you know, 2020-2021, 2022-2023, 2024, you know, you
would have like heard me talk a lot about my mum.
And the relationship wasn't as close as it is right now.
And it was quite distant before.And I was like, maybe I was
blaming a lot or maybe I wasn't comprehending or understanding
her as much as I do now, you know, because now, you know, we
(34:54):
actually talk about Jesus. We talk about, you know, our
faith, you know, we talk about life, we talk about things that
actually we're quite In Sync with now, you know, which is an
is a gift. It's such a blessing, you know,
and I'm so grateful that I went on this journey of discovering
myself first, you know, leaning back into my own truth first to
(35:16):
understand myself. But the truth is that really
what brought me back to my faithand back to Jesus and God was,
you know, to the they are the same, of course, was self love.
You know, and I was actually talking to, you know, we are
made in the likeness and image of God, right?
You know, the Holy Spirit works through me every time I speak.
(35:38):
You know, there has never been atime.
It's funny, I was talking to my sister about this, and I was
like, you know, maybe we should,like, structure the podcast
episodes. And you should have certain
things that you talk about so that when you get on the
podcast, you can actually, like,focus on those things.
And I'm like, yeah, but the HolySpirit works for me every time.
And so the Holy Spirit doesn't come to me and be caught before
the podcast and go, hey, Luke, you're going to talk about this,
(36:00):
this, this and this. That doesn't happen.
I just turn on the recording, I press record, turn it on, and I
go live and I talk, you know? So the connection right to your
power, you know, first it had tocome from my own action of
coming back home to me. But guess what?
(36:22):
I'm still coming home. You know, the closer you get to
yourself, the closer you get to God.
No word of a lie. You know the reason why you
don't feel connected to God is because you're not connected to
yourself. It's crazy shit, man.
And once you understand and you go through this process, you
understand. And that's why you become
(36:44):
limitless. Because God is infinite.
There's no, no possibilities. Everything is possible.
Everything is possible when you have faith.
Everything is possible when you believe.
But if you don't, you'll be limited and you'll live in fear
and you'll keep living in fear and you'll never overcome your
(37:05):
obstacles. You'll never achieve the
greatness that you were born to achieve.
You know, you have so much of it.
But again, I had to go through my own personal journey, you
know, So now I get to actually have a very happy and loving and
healthy open relationship with my mother, which is I'm so
(37:28):
blessed and grateful to say thatnow, you know, but there were
the triggers that were happeningand the confusion, the
frustration that I went through for so many years that were
coming from my mother, you know,and now it's so amazing to be
able to talk and not be triggered.
It's the best, it's the fucking best, you know, And, and also
(37:50):
what happens when you go throughthis emotional journey of
becoming emotionally aware and intelligent, You get away from
the ego, you know, right. And you come back to just being
free and authentic. And what happens is you're able
to actually like see things froma different vantage point where
people don't trigger you anymore, especially the people
(38:12):
that you've had these conversations with or you've
tried to be vulnerable with or, or have these open conversations
with to try to help them understand your feelings and how
they make you feel when they saycertain things.
Like immediately, as soon as my wife says something to me that
triggers me or hurts my feelingsor something like that, I
immediately tell her, hey, don'tsay that to me.
You know, that's this is how that makes me feel or whatever,
(38:35):
you know, or you're overusing this word or you're abusing this
word or this is really like not healthy.
You know, if I feel something and it's not healthy for me or
doesn't make me feel empowered or whatever, guess what?
I ain't saying quiet. You got to communicate, you
know, and I think that's the biggest thing that we're lacking
in life, in relationships is thelack of transparency, the lack
(38:56):
of communication and the assumptions that, you know,
people will get it, you know, people understand or whatever.
And it's like, Nah, man. Like if you want a relationship
to thrive, you got to give, you know, don't expect people to
just, you know, message you and,and everything's going to be
fine if you're not pouring as well.
(39:17):
You know, it takes 2 to tango. Yeah.
What a saying. So now that I've gone through
this journey of understanding mybody, understanding myself, you
know, this whole emotional eating and all this stuff, and I
know some, a lot of people out there suffer with it more than
than than I have. You know, I'm very blessed
(39:38):
definitely to have the physique that I have, even though I could
overeat and whatever. But but now with this fasting.
And if you want to join our fasting community, just click
the link below WhatsApp community, it's free to join.
And today is actually I'm starting the fast because it's
Wednesday. So after dinner today, I won't
be eating until Friday morning. When I wake up, I'll go to the
(39:58):
gym and then I'll have breakfast, you know, And I'm
learning to because last week I did it on Thursday.
And then I fasted for like 36 hours because that's how much
time it is pretty much after dinner, you don't eat and then
you sleep and then you don't eatall day and you just have juice
and shit. But then when I ate in the
morning, I had like scrambled eggs and I felt like I ate too
(40:18):
much. And then for the next like hour,
2 hours, I had a headache, you know?
So I didn't eat for 36 hours andthen I had scrambled eggs.
So be mindful of like what you do to break your fast, you know?
So this time I'm going to have bone broth and I'm going to just
start it nice, easy on the gut, you know what I mean?
(40:40):
And then slowly, slowly, slowly,you know, get back into, you
know, your diet, right? But this is the beautiful thing.
Now I'm getting to this place asI finish up this podcast
episode. Thank you so much for tuning in.
I appreciate you guys. Now I'm getting to this place
where I am going to do this fasttoday.
And on Sunday I'm doing a five day fast, OK.
(41:05):
And because again, what do I want to do?
I just want to do a full detox, full detox, full reset, you
know? And yes, 100%, I'll probably
lose about 5 kilos for sure, right?
I know it. By the way, what's fucking 5
kilos? 10 lbs is a 55 kilos in pounds.
(41:27):
Yeah, 11 lbs. So 100% from Sunday to Friday,
I'm going to lose 11 lbs, no doubt about it.
I know 100% so and again, why amI doing it?
Because my health will improve, give my body a break, you know?
But I will still be juice and veggies blended in the blender,
(41:49):
whatever as like the meal replacements, right?
And it's definitely much easier,but I might challenge myself on
one of the days and just do a full water fast, you know?
But most importantly, this is where, like, I'm actually like,
I don't give a fuck if you don'tlike the way I look.
If I lose 5 kilos or 11 lbs, youknow, this is where I actually
step into the greatest version of myself where I'm not going to
(42:12):
sit here and go, oh, fuck, you know, you're a bit skinny.
You lost some weight or this andthat.
And it's like, yeah, fucking getover it.
You know, Like, who gives a fuck?
Like, yeah, I'm fucking healthy.I'm looking after myself, you
know, but even looking at what is that anyway?
Like, where did that come from that we have such a perception
of like, you know, you've lost weight or like, why do we do
(42:36):
that? I don't know.
Like I have never ever looked atsomeone and gone, Oh, you're
looking pretty skinny or oh, you've lost weight, you know,
like I don't know what it is, but I've never done that to
anyone, you know, like, I mean, obviously, you know, if
(42:59):
someone's dieting or whatever, I'll be like, wow, you've lost
weight. You look really good, you know,
as a compliment, but not like just throw it out there like,
oh, you're fucking skinny or youthis and that.
And the reason why I don't is because I know how it fucking
feels, you know, like who am I to make a judgement on someone
else? I didn't give Like, why would I
want to judge anyone? I don't want to judge people,
(43:20):
you know, So, you know, when you've been judged a lot all
your life, you know what it feels like.
So you don't want to hurt other people by doing it back to them.
And you don't know everyone's story.
You don't know what people have been through, you know.
But again, this is the thing, guys, the world can be a
difficult place, you know? Hence why it's up to you to
(43:43):
build your armour. It's up to you to have a
positive mindset. It's up to you to love yourself.
It's up to you to have your own back.
Because it's so easy to get judged.
It's so easy for people to call you names.
It's so easy for you to get programmed like that and for you
to feel like you're not worthy and you're not good enough.
And then you just want to kill yourself.
(44:05):
And that's the fuck thing, you know, that we do live in this
kind of world where a lot of people don't actually realise
that it can hurt someone or thatit can affect the way that you
live your life because of a judgement of, you know, someone
continuously judging you on how you look, you know?
So yeah, I look forward to beingmore healthier.
I look forward to losing some weight and not giving a fuck
(44:28):
about people judging me, you know so like I said, if you want
to join our fasting community onWhatsApp, there is a link in my
bio on Instagram on TikTok. You want to join click the link
there. It'll take you straight to
WhatsApp. If you're on YouTube right now
or you're watching this on a replay on YouTube, there is a

(44:50):
notes, but you can click the link, join our WhatsApp
community. And I look forward to going on
this journey of resetting our mind, body and spirit and, you
know, becoming healthier because, you know, the world out
there doesn't really support ourhealth in terms of food.
(45:11):
You know, there's so much shit out there and it's very, very
easy to just go and fucking get takeaway and have a burger and
keep eating, you know what I mean?
Or get a pizza, order a pizza. It's fucking easy.
Anyway, guys, thank you so much for spending time with me.
I trust that this episode was valuable for you.
And if it was, share it with your friends and let's keep
(45:31):
changing the world. All right, sending you a lot of
love. Thank you so much, and I'll talk
to you guys soon. See ya.
Have you ever looked at yourselfin the mirror and not being
happy with what you saw? Were you not happy with your
physical appearance? The many, many years I had this
fear of judgement of other people, I was programmed myself
from being bullied or from the names skinny or lanky or you
need to eat some more food. So what I'm doing is I'm
overeating more because I've gotthis conscious perception of
(00:20):
like, well, I don't want to be too skinny.
Whatever the fuck happened, happened.
It's my job to fix myself. It's my responsibility to
overcome my own trauma, overcomemy own fees, overcome my own
insecurities, overcome my own doubts.
Step up, wake up and get the fuck up and change your life.
But if you feel like you struggle with keeping yourself
accountable and being disciplined with what you eat,
(00:41):
then. Since 2018, I've helped
thousands of people heal childhood trauma, overcome
addiction, get off their anxietyand depression medication, and
(01:01):
finally take control of their lives.
Many have gone on to start theirown business and become
speakers, coaches, and leaders who are now transforming lives
every single day. I've built a global community
with over 3.5 million people spoken on stages all over the
world, and now I want to help you to do the same.

Welcome to this podcast episode and I hope you're doing great.
Now, if you want to become a better version of yourself, you
(01:45):
want to take control of your mind, if you want to become more
disciplined, then why don't you join me on my latest fasting
expedition? That's like Austin Powers
expedition, right? He said expedition, right?
This journey, right? So every Thursday I'm doing some
fasting and it's a juice fast. You can choose to do water fast
if you want. But if you want to join us on
(02:05):
this journey, I've created a WhatsApp community where we can
keep each other accountable, stay connected.
Every Thursday I'm doing it. So there's a link below this
video on YouTube, YouTube, clickthe WhatsApp community link,
join us on WhatsApp. And I'm super excited to do this
because if there's anything thatwe need in our life is to be a
little bit more disciplined withfood.
(02:25):
You know, it's not a time for usto put on more weight, to be
heavier, to feel like shit. It's a time for us to take our
power back. And this is what I love about it
because I know myself that actually fasting helps you to
feel more mental clarity and youfeel more energetic, which is
weird, but it's true, you know? And I've experienced it in the
past because I've done fasting in the past.
(02:45):
And then sometimes I don't eat for, you know, a day or
whatever, just because I'm too busy, you know, but I can feel
it, you know, more food, the more energy your body has to
burn because that's the process of the food.
So just as an introduction to this podcast, you know, if you
want to take your power back, join my WhatsApp community.
Of course, you can do it on yourown.
But if you feel like you struggle with keeping yourself
(03:08):
accountable and being disciplined with what you eat,
then, you know, surround yourself with a community that
is going to help you to achieve that goal.
And that's what I've learnt overthe years as well with a journey
of success. You know, wherever you surround
yourself with is what you're going to feed off, what you're
going to learn, what you're going to become.
So yeah, take action guys. I'm here to support you in this
(03:28):
journey as well. And I think it's a great
especially the fact that like, yeah, like normally I'm my old
trauma, like this actually leadsinto trauma, you know, was my
own insecurities of how I looked.
And I think that, yeah, this is going to be relatable to you as
well now, because have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror
(03:49):
and not being happy with what you saw, you know, where you're
not happy with your physical appearance?
And for myself personally, it's been a long time.
I have like, just let me know inthe in the chat like what's up,
Linda? Great to see you guys.
And by the way, TikTok Instagram, if you guys are
watching and you want to watch on YouTube, I'm actually live on
YouTube right now. So if you want to have a better
(04:11):
screen, bigger screen, maybe you're watching on TV or
something like that, jump on YouTube.
Let us know you're here in the comments.
All right. But for many, many years I had
this fear, I think of or judgement of other people.
You know, I was programmed myself from being bullied or
from the names, you know, skinnyor lanky or you need to eat some
more food or you know, like you need to put some more meat on
(04:33):
those bones. Just shit like that.
You know, when I was young and just hearing that constantly,
even like Mum, like you're at the dinner table, you can't
leave the dinner table until youfinish your food.
And fucking I don't want to eat the fucking food.
I wasn't hungry or I didn't likethe food or whatever the fuck it
was like. And I was forced to like, no,
(04:54):
you can't leave the table until you finish your food.
I remember it very, very clearly.
But then it just was the fact that, you know, I was a very
skinny and lanky boy, you know, so slowly, slowly as I kept
hearing these lanky. And I do remember my mom.
And actually I had a healing moment with my mom back in
2020-2021 when I had to move back to my parents house.
(05:18):
Funny enough, I told my mom, I said, you know, when I was that
young 1314 year old boy and I wanted to play soccer.
And you told me no, you know, I remember that moment and I said
to her, I wanted to play soccer.And she said no, you can't
because you're too skinny. And if you go out on the field,
(05:39):
the other kids are going to break your bones, you know, So
you can see that she kind of hada bit of fear, maybe a lot of
fear that had that, that she had.
Or maybe she, I guess, couldn't deal with, you know, another
responsibility of like, she got 4 kids already.
She's trying to live her life, but yet her little boy's son is
(06:00):
trying to play soccer and she didn't have the time to go to
the fucking soccer on The Saturdays and she doesn't want
me to play. So she just made up an excuse,
whatever it was, right? But I had this moment with her
in 2020 or 2021 when I mentionedit to, I said, you know, that
moment like was one of the moments that I never forget
because it broke me and it hurt me.
(06:23):
And yeah, it just like it. It highlighted that you have a
problem, you know, and if you'rewatching on YouTube, like let us
know in the comments if you can relate.
But it really, really highlighted that there was some
sort of problem with me that, you know, yeah, I'm too skinny
or I'm not strong enough. You know, like saying, oh, if
you play on the field, you're, you're the other kids are going
(06:44):
to break your bones. Like, what the fuck is that
saying? Well, it's clearly identifying
that you are weak and that you have a problem, you know, but
rightly so. Like what the fuck does the mom
have to do? She's trying to protect the
fucking hands, the kids, the ducklings, you know, like any
mother, What do they do? They protect their children.
(07:06):
So naturally what she was doing was just protecting me, not
realising that she was hurting me at the same time, but not
realising, who knows, maybe she was doing the fucking right
thing, She was actually protecting me.
Maybe if I did go and play, I would have fucking broken my
leg. Who knows, like I maybe I
wouldn't have even been able to be the person I am today because
I would have had any injuries orsome shit, you know?
(07:29):
But no matter what, I guess it'sthe awareness of, you know,
understanding the journey of your childhood trauma, the
journey of how you were parented, the journey of all
these experiences that you've been through.
And then not kind of looking back at your parents and
actually judging them because I used to, you know, I used to
(07:49):
judge them. I used to think that it was all
of their fault. And it's their fault that I'm
like this. And it's their fault that I'm
not successful. And it's their fault that I have
so much low self confidence or low self worth or whatever, you
know, And sure, of course I can look at the way I was parented
and I can find faults if I want to, you know, or I can just have
(08:10):
a different mindset and go whatever the fuck happened,
happened. And now as a grown adult and at
this level of awareness that I have, well, I'm just, it's my
job to fix myself. You know, it's my responsibility
to overcome my own trauma, overcome my own fees, overcome
my own insecurities, overcome myown doubts, you know, overcome
(08:33):
my own lack of belief in myself,whatever.
You know, of course it would have been nice to have had more
encouragement, more support, more love, you know, more
attention, like, you know, more belief in me.
You know, I can sit there and blame and fucking say, you know,
you should have done this or youshould have believed in me more.
(08:53):
You should have had my back moreor you should have loved me
more. You should have spent more time
with me and you should have donethis and you should have done
that, should have, would have, could have fucking whatever.
You know what I mean? Like, what the fuck is that
going to do? How's that going to change shit
now? It's not, you know, so it's your
responsibility to step up, wake up and get the fuck up and
change your life, you know, and if you're not willing to do it,
(09:15):
well, stop then. What can we expect from someone
who doesn't want to deal with their trauma or doesn't want to
deal with the fact that they're not living in their potential,
they're not living the life thatthey could be living?
What do we do with people like that?
You know, do we have pity on them?
Do we continue like, oh, well, you know, yeah, that's a really
sad story, you know, Like, oh, well, you know, yeah, life is
(09:37):
really fucked up now because of what you went through.
And that's just where you are right now.
So I guess that's what you got to live with, you know, like you
got to eventually, like, get thefuck over, right?
With all due respect, you know, I'm fucking conscious of what
I'm speaking and what I'm saying, and I'm not pointing the
finger at you specifically and trying to put you down by going
(09:57):
Get the fuck over it and see it.Actually, I'm fucking very
switched on. I know what I'm saying, right?
But I'm just making you a littlebit more aware of like
eventually get the fuck out of your own way, eventually stop
complaining, eventually stop pointing the finger, eventually
stop blaming, eventually get to a point.
And maybe you're not at that point yet.
(10:18):
Maybe you got to keep going, youknow, maybe you got to keep
suffering a little bit more. Maybe you got to keep being in
your own way a little bit more. Maybe you got to keep
surrounding yourself with the fucking people that you've been
surrounding yourself with, whichare causing the lack of
inspiration in your life as to the reason why you don't get off
your fucking asking and make thechanges that you need to make in
your life so you can fucking be free.
(10:39):
Maybe that's just the case. Maybe that's how it is for you,
you know, Or maybe this episode wakes you up.
Maybe this episode inspires you to go shit.
You know, it's my responsibility.
It's my healing and my growth and my evolution is my
responsibility. And I think it's probably one of
the best things you can ever do,You know, realise that no one is
(11:03):
coming to save you. Not fucking Batman, not bloody
some, you know, imaginary creature or superhero that comes
out of fucking thin air and all of a sudden, you know, they save
you. Even though that sounds like a
nice story, you know, Superman'sgoing to fire out and go, oh, I
came to save you and shit, man, you know, you know, not some
(11:23):
made up fairy tale freaking uncle or auntie's going to
appear and go, here's all the money that you need.
You're going to be all fine. You know, you've got to show up
and you've got to make some changes.
And if there's anything that I've learnt is that.
And you know what, this has definitely been one of the
inspirations for my own success and perseverance and never give
(11:44):
up attitude is because as much as you may have family members
that want to help you, you know,and if you do, it's a blessing,
you know, but there's something else, you know, and I'm very
grateful because I've had all myfamily help me in some way,
shape or form. And I basically return the
favour. You know, I do give back.
(12:06):
I give back a lot. And I have, you know, but I
don't know about you. And, you know, you tell me
whether you can relate and whether this relate like
resonates. And obviously it's different if
you're in a, you know, if you'remarried, like, you know, you
know, like my wife likes to be like, you know, every time we
(12:26):
say a prayer, you know, before we eat, you know, she always
says, you know, and thank you God for my husband who provides
for us, you know, and and I'm grateful for that.
So it's not the point where, youknow, there's something about,
you know, doing it and not having to rely on anyone else in
(12:50):
a sense, you know what I mean? But again, when you're married,
you know, you have, you know, the parts of the relationship
that you put that you play, you know, like I know my, I know
what I know my role. I know like what I'm doing in
the relationship, you know, and my wife knows her role too.
And we complement each other andit's a blessing, right?
(13:13):
You know, there's something about not having to rely on
people for you to survive. You know, it's knowing that you
are disciplined enough and you are aware enough and you went
and you did it for yourself. But when you're married, it's
different. Of course.
You know, it's not like my wife's like, oh, I don't do
(13:34):
anything. My wife, my husband, he just
makes all the money and I'm justlike doing whatever.
It's like, Nah, man. She does the things that she
needs to do and she does a lot. So and again, when you're in any
relationship, you know, you can feel it, you know, how much am I
giving? How much am I receiving?
How much are you giving? How much are they giving?
So you know, you pay attention to the balance, you know, but
(13:57):
again, going back to what I'm talking about, you know, is
there is just something about, you know, and, and what is it?
Let's, let's dive deeper into it.
What is it about this nature of,you know, not being someone who
who, who needs other people so that they can?
And of course it happens sometimes.
Listen, man, I was fucking brokeafter 2020.
(14:19):
I worked with his coach. I got scammed.
I had no money left at the end of the year, like literally
thousands of dollars. And I had to call.
I remember calling my brother inlaw who I've been so inspired by
recently because he's on a 28 day fast and he's actually
inspired me to open up this fasting community.
So if you're interested in doingsome fasting every week, I do it
every Thursday. Click the link below.
Join our WhatsApp community because you can.
(14:41):
We can stay accountable, help you stay accountable so you can
get healthier, lose some weight,right?
Get control of your mind and getbecome more disciplined.
But he's on a, he's doing a 28 day fast.
That's ridiculous, right? Because he was getting
overweight, you know, and he waslike, fuck, I'm not waiting till
I have a heart attack. I'm fucking fasting right now.
I'm doing a juice fast 28 days. I'm going to lose fucking
(15:02):
whatever I've lost. He's lost like 15 kilos.
He was 114 or 15 kilos. Now he's not under 100 kilos.
And so if, you know, it's doing that, but I remember calling him
in 2020, end of 2020, I had no money left.
And I, I called him and I was like, can you lend me $500, you
know, And that was a shit feeling.
(15:25):
You know, it really was, it was a shit feeling to have to borrow
money because I didn't have my own, you know.
So again, like, it's a blessing to.
Yeah, I mean, I always say it's a blessing to be alive.
It's a blessing. It's a blessing to do what I do.
But at the same time, like, it'sa blessing.
(15:47):
Yeah, it is a blessing. It's it's I'm so honoured to be
coaching people. I'm so grateful for my life to
be doing podcasts, to be speaking, to be inspiring so
many people, working with so many amazing people, you know,
my coaching programmes. But you're the one that makes,
and that's why I say, man, you're the one that makes your
(16:08):
life a blessing as well. It's a blessing, but you're the
one that makes it a blessing, you know, like you're the
creator of your reality. You see, if you can't control
what you shove in your mouth, well then how the fuck can you
control your life, you know? And so let me go take you back
(16:28):
to the trauma. I digressed a little bit if
you're paying attention, becauseI was talking about my physical
appearance. I was talking about the
insecurities. And I'm just asking you a
question now. Like have you ever felt
uncomfortable looking at your own body?
Have you ever felt have you everlooked at yourself in the mirror
and you're like, I don't like what I see?
Or have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror and
(16:48):
because of all the judgements ofother people saying that you're
fat, you're ugly, you're this, you're that you got rolls your
fucking neck, whatever, like your, your stomach or your ass,
whatever. Like has has anyone ever judged
you to the point where now when you look at yourself in the
mirror, you're actually not ableto actually love yourself and
(17:10):
accept yourself? You're actually hearing the
voices of those people who have been judging you.
OK, I see some of the people on Instagram saying yes, how about
Tiktok? I'm asking you guys a question
too. Let me know in the comments.
Like have you ever? I'm on YouTube as well and
leaves the grass says every fucking day Nae nae says me,
(17:30):
myself and I anyone else on on YouTube.
I made a decision to quit drinking alcohol and sodas for
the last two months on That's awesome keep going.
So this is the thing right with this whole like physical
appearance. So this is what happened for me.
I've learned as well that the trauma response for me was
(17:50):
emotional eating and was overeating because throughout my
whole like, I guess life, I've always wanted to put on weight.
It's funny, Hey, like some of usare like, fucking hell, I want
to lose some weight. I'm fucking struggling to lose
weight. I can't lose weight.
And there's people out there that are like skinny as shit and
they're trying to put on weight,but they can't, you know, their
(18:13):
metabolism is just designed likethat and they just can't put on
weight. You know, it just doesn't
happen. No matter how many fucking Big
Macs, burgers, fucking fries, hot dogs, like no matter how how
many fucking Domino's or Pizza Hut or fucking pizzas you have,
you never put on weight. And that was like my reality for
(18:33):
so many years. And I was like, oh, this is
fucking, I guess I'm lucky, you know, I guess I'm lucky.
I can eat whatever the fuck I want and I never put on weight.
Wow, right. And this is as I've like grown
into my 30s and now 35 and now I'm 41, like over the 30s.
Like I had put on a little bit of a gut, you know, so I can you
(18:57):
can see that there's but I likedit, you know, because it made me
feel a little bit more full. You know, it made me like round
up a little bit where I was like, OK, cool, now I've got a
bit of an ass. That was the biggest thing.
Fucking hell, I have an obsession with ass.
The asses like my fucking ass, you know, like there's this
(19:18):
obsession. Why?
Where did the obsession come from?
Because I never had one. Not that I didn't have one
because I have to go to fucking Chuck of shit.
I've got to go to the toilet, ofcourse, got to fucking ass.
But the shape of it, you know, And you know, some people can
go, OK, too much information or whatever, but I don't give a
fuck. I don't care.
Like we're talking. You're listening.
If you value this podcast episode, you think it's going to
inspire someone or fucking shareit with some friends.
(20:07):
His body was Italian, but his body was so proportioned.
It was so fucking like, I was like, wow, like, you know, just
ass fucking nice chest, all thisstuff masculine, you know.
So and then when you don't have that, what happens?
And then when you don't have confidence in yourself and you
don't feel good within yourself and you're constantly being
(20:27):
judged about how you look and that you're too skinny and this
and that. So and then you're looking at
other people and then you make up your own mind in your brain
of like, where does your focus goes?
Your focus is like, Oh my gosh, like there's something wrong
with me, you know? So for me, it this whole like
body weight and like the physical appearance has been a
(20:50):
trauma for me all my life, you know, And funny enough, you
know, I just recently, if you noticed on my Instagram, I did a
video of me with my shirt off and I danced and I was like, I
don't give a fuck what you think.
I'm just going to dance. I don't care.
I'm taking my shirt off because yeah, part of the message is I
don't care what you think and I'm just going to be me, you
(21:11):
know? But hey, listen man, like I'm
not doing this fasting communityand telling you to join on
WhatsApp for no reason. Like I'm on a mission and I
don't know if you want to join me, but I'm on a mission the
next three months, like October.I know this podcast will
probably be released in a week'stime or a week and a half,
whatever, but October, November,December, the next three months
(21:32):
is time to fucking get it. Like, if there's ever been a
time where I'm going to become the best freaking version of
myself, a version of myself thatI've never been before, it's
right now, you know? It's really time to get serious,
and especially with eating, because eating has never been
something that I'm just like, Ohyeah, I need to slow down.
(21:52):
You know what I mean? The reason why, if we're talking
about transparency right now, isbecause I want to always have a
bit of a gut because I don't want to be too skinny, right?
Because I don't want people to judge me.
So what I'm doing is I'm overeating more because I've got
this conscious perception of like, well, I don't want to be
too skinny because then I'm going to have to like, maybe get
(22:14):
smaller pants and then people are going to judge me again from
when I was young. So I have this programmed
subconscious fear that Luke doesn't want to go back to being
like that because when he was like that, he wasn't accepted.
Are we making a breakthrough right now?
Like let me know in the chat. Are you guys picking up
(22:35):
understanding? Like what I'm sharing?
Is this making sense to you? Is anyone else relating like, to
what I'm talking about? Because like, I've known this
for a while, but I wasn't able to explain it properly, you
know? So this is where now I'm like,
and This is why it takes a little bit of time, you know,
like as you grow older, you start to become a little bit
(22:56):
more wiser, a little bit more confident, a little bit more
like, you know, what is actuallyhappening with myself, You know,
who am I? What am I blocking?
What am I doing? You know, because it's like, Oh
no, don't do fasting because you're going to lose 5 kilos,
you're going to lose a bit of weight and then you're going to
be skinny again or whatever, youknow.
So I'm very blessed as well because again, the other fee was
(23:18):
like, Oh my gosh. Because when I was younger, you
know, I knew my skinny frame, even though it was tall, I knew
that, you know, I how I looked and all that kind of stuff.
So I used to cover it up, baggy pants, baggy shirt.
I used to think that depending on the car that I drove was
dependent on what kind of girls I would attract.
So I was like, well, nice car, I'll get nice skills.
(23:39):
Didn't even fucking work that way.
There was a complete lack of confidence that I had for such a
long time that no matter how fucking nice my car was, the
girl never came because I never fucking had the confidence to go
up to girls anyway, you know? So it's not about the car, it's
about fucking you, right? So I was always hiding myself,
(24:04):
you know, for so many years. And so now we get to this place
of like, wow, so you know, don'tfast because and that's why I
got triggered so bad when I was living at my mum's.
And I did that three day water fast.
And funny enough, that moment triggered the transformational
module that is about healing your inner child.
(24:27):
In my coaching programme, my 20 week coaching programme, it came
from that moment with my mum, you know, and that's why it's so
powerful because it heals your trauma, your childhood trauma,
you know, you go through a journey of conscious re
parenting, re parenting yourself, identifying the mother
wound and the father wound. And I remember living with my
mom and I finished the water fast.
(24:48):
I think I just finished it. I did a three day alkaline water
fast. And then I had, I just came back
from China. So I was already skinny.
I was AI was vegetarian. Then I went to being a vegan for
like 3 or 4 months and then thatmoment because I did that three
day water fast because I had blood in my stool.
So I wanted to heal, heal that. And I truly, truly believed that
(25:11):
you are your own best doctor. And when I came back from China,
I was like, no, there's no, I'm not going to do doctors.
I don't believe in them. You know, I've lost trust in the
system. I am going to heal myself.
I'm going to heal my own body. And the best way to do it is to
fast and stop eating because what's killing us is the food.
How do we become healthier? Stop fucking eating, right?
(25:32):
And so I stopped eating for three days.
And then when I stopped eating for three days, guess what?
I lost even more weight. So there I was with my mum in
the house. I walked down the steps.
There's like the second level ofthe, it's a one story house.
But then there's a second level of like 2 steps.
(25:53):
And I walked down the steps and I'm walking and my mum comes
behind me because maybe she was coming from another room.
And like, she pulls the back of my pants and she's like, come
on, man, put some weight on. Like, you know, your pants are
falling down. Like that moment was probably
(26:16):
one of the worst triggers I've ever experienced in my life.
At 35 years old. It was like a shock, like there
was something, it was like I wasbeing electrocuted in my body.
My whole fucking body started just it was on fire, you know,
(26:38):
and I couldn't even say anything.
I was in shock. Like literally fight or flight
or fright, whatever you call it,whatever, like.
And my response was I turned around and I'd, I would have
said go fuck yourself or fuck off or something like that
because I had no, I lost controland I went into my room and I
(27:00):
slammed the door. And for the next 7 days, guys, I
kid you not, this is what I wentthrough for the next 7 days.
And this is 2020. So I was already Luke mine
power. I lost Luke mine power like that
version of me that I had become disappeared and I became a child
(27:20):
again. I became a hurt, broken,
misunderstood, confused child at30 fucking five guys.
Like it was incomprehensible right now to think about
something like that that that's possible.
But that's what happened. You know, I was like it lying on
(27:40):
the bed, like confused, trying to process my emotions, trying
to process like what is going on?
Why do I feel this way? Why is this happening?
You know, and for the next 7 days, I was basically depressed,
you know, I would only come out to eat something.
(28:01):
I would, I would, I stopped talking to my mom like I, when I
would see her in the house, I wouldn't even say anything, you
know, and, but that was the inspiration for my 20 week
coaching programme that moment. Because what happened after that
is I was on YouTube and I was sitting there and actually,
(28:22):
that's when I think I started learning from Peter Crone,
which, you know, if you know Peter Crone, he's extraordinary.
I did a podcast episode with himin 2023.
It's on my podcast channel on YouTube.
If you want to watch it, just type in Peter Crone and Luke
mind power. Listen to that episode because
we actually talked about triggers and he has such a
(28:43):
profound mindset on emotional triggers and, and awareness.
So listen to that. But that was the moment there
where I also started learning from Lisa Romano.
If you haven't heard of Lisa Romano, have a look at her on
Instagram as well. But she had a lot on her YouTube
channel about narcissistic abuse, narcissism, codependency.
(29:05):
But I found content from her about healing your inner child
and the moment because I was looking for answers.
Like fuck, this is what you're supposed to be doing.
Like if you're getting triggered, if you're not
understanding your emotions, if you're not understanding, like
what's going on with my body, like why do I react like that?
What's happening? You know, because that's how it
(29:26):
was for me all my life. I was just like constantly in
fear and not understanding. Why do I go red?
Why do I blush? Why do I get intimidated by
people? Why, why when people talk to me
sometimes and they say words, doI not understand what the fuck's
going on? And I just feel embarrassed, you
know, like I couldn't get it. It fucking hurt me for so many
years. And then you, you wonder, why
(29:47):
does Luke swear so much? Why does Luke do does what he
does? Why does Luke dance like that?
Why does Luke talk like that? Like this is the episode where
you under fucking stand what I've been through, who I am, how
I felt for so many years. And even still, if you listen to
this shit, you still probably won't understand because you've
(30:08):
never felt what I've felt. And I hope that by listening to
this, maybe you will comprehend and understand that no one ever
will be able to understand your fucking pain.
No one, just you, and you don't need other people to fucking
understand, but you need to understand because if you don't,
(30:29):
you live your life fucking sleeping and confused and
feeling like the world is fucking out to get you.
Instead, you fucking take responsibility for your shit and
you figure yourself out. So that was when actually.
And that's why your triggers areteachers, you know, but your
triggers are also gifts. If you lean in, The question is,
(30:50):
are you willing to lean in instead of ignoring it and not
trying to understand it, processit, you know?
And now I look at him like, wow,mum, thanks for giving me the
blessing, you know, thanks for triggering the shit out of me
because you forced me to try to understand myself.
You forced me to research myself.
(31:12):
You forced me to look deeper into what's the actual problem,
What's the reaction from what's going on at 35.
It was disgusting. Like it felt so uncomfortable.
But that shows my heightened sensitivity.
You know, I'm a sensitive guy. I'm an emotional guy.
(31:33):
I'm OK with being vulnerable andI don't give a fuck if there's
any other masculine guy or masculine fucking macho this and
that. Oh, don't show your emotions and
you know, and you don't be vulnerable and you have to be
strong. And of course I'm fucking
strong, but I'm going to fuckingtalk about my emotions and my
feelings and I don't give a shitabout whether you fucking say
(31:56):
oh, that's not masculine or fuckoff, you know.
So that took me down this path of really understanding like
myself, which I'm still learning, funny enough.
You know, I don't have it all figured out and I don't fucking
want to. This is the whole life of your
life, of the journey of life of,you know, asking better
(32:20):
questions, looking deeper into your own character and behaviour
and personality and who you are,understanding yourself better.
Why the fuck not? You know, if you want, you'll
learn a lot. And of course you don't have to
because you don't have to do shit.
You know, if being yourself likethat, the way you are, the way
you've been, the way you show up, the way you do things is
satisfying for you and it's fulfilling for you, well,
(32:42):
fucking keep doing it. You know, And most importantly,
you wouldn't even be listening to this podcast any fucking way
if you were just like going to be like, I don't give a fuck.
I'm just staying like this. Exactly.
You wouldn't be listening to this.
You're not on this fucking vibrational frequency anyway.
So I know that I'm talking to anyone who's listening to these
podcasts, whether you're on TikTok, YouTube, Instagram,
(33:03):
wherever you're listening to this.
I know that you're tapped in, whether you're on LinkedIn,
whether you're on Rumble, wherever the fuck you're
listening, iHeartRadio, Apple podcasts, Spotify, shout out to
everyone all over all the platforms that you're listening
to these podcasts. Because I know that actually, I
don't even need to say that because no one who doesn't want
to grow would be listening to this fucking podcast.
You're only listening to this because you want to become a
(33:23):
better version of yourself and you want to grow and evolve,
heal, you know, So just going back to this whole healing thing
because I'm excited about this now because I'm fucking like at
this level, you know, of life oflike, yeah, caring less and
being healthier, being better, you know, because I mean, what's
my why now? My why is being a healthier
(33:46):
husband, you know, my why is being a healthier dad, my kids
that are coming, you know what Imean?
So this is my preparation for that, right?
So then should I still continue to like have this fear of like,
oh, you know, don't lose weight,Luke, don't do this fasting
because if you do this fasting, it'll lose weight and then like
(34:07):
people going to judge you again.And then you know, like, right.
So there was this fear, but that's where the healing and
becoming aware came from, from those moments.
And I got through that seven days and then there was a few
more triggers with my mum. But it's, it's amazing how
things have come full circle now.
And you know, me and my mum, if you listen to my podcast early
(34:31):
on, you know, 2020-2021, 2022-2023, 2024, you know, you
would have like heard me talk a lot about my mum.
And the relationship wasn't as close as it is right now.
And it was quite distant before.And I was like, maybe I was
blaming a lot or maybe I wasn't comprehending or understanding
her as much as I do now, you know, because now, you know, we
(34:54):
actually talk about Jesus. We talk about, you know, our
faith, you know, we talk about life, we talk about things that
actually we're quite In Sync with now, you know, which is an
is a gift. It's such a blessing, you know,
and I'm so grateful that I went on this journey of discovering
myself first, you know, leaning back into my own truth first to
(35:16):
understand myself. But the truth is that really
what brought me back to my faithand back to Jesus and God was,
you know, to the they are the same, of course, was self love.
You know, and I was actually talking to, you know, we are
made in the likeness and image of God, right?
You know, the Holy Spirit works through me every time I speak.
(35:38):
You know, there has never been atime.
It's funny, I was talking to my sister about this, and I was
like, you know, maybe we should,like, structure the podcast
episodes. And you should have certain
things that you talk about so that when you get on the
podcast, you can actually, like,focus on those things.
And I'm like, yeah, but the HolySpirit works for me every time.
And so the Holy Spirit doesn't come to me and be caught before
the podcast and go, hey, Luke, you're going to talk about this,
(36:00):
this, this and this. That doesn't happen.
I just turn on the recording, I press record, turn it on, and I
go live and I talk, you know? So the connection right to your
power, you know, first it had tocome from my own action of
coming back home to me. But guess what?
(36:22):
I'm still coming home. You know, the closer you get to
yourself, the closer you get to God.
No word of a lie. You know the reason why you
don't feel connected to God is because you're not connected to
yourself. It's crazy shit, man.
And once you understand and you go through this process, you
understand. And that's why you become
(36:44):
limitless. Because God is infinite.
There's no, no possibilities. Everything is possible.
Everything is possible when you have faith.
Everything is possible when you believe.
But if you don't, you'll be limited and you'll live in fear
and you'll keep living in fear and you'll never overcome your
(37:05):
obstacles. You'll never achieve the
greatness that you were born to achieve.
You know, you have so much of it.
But again, I had to go through my own personal journey, you
know, So now I get to actually have a very happy and loving and
healthy open relationship with my mother, which is I'm so
(37:28):
blessed and grateful to say thatnow, you know, but there were
the triggers that were happeningand the confusion, the
frustration that I went through for so many years that were
coming from my mother, you know,and now it's so amazing to be
able to talk and not be triggered.
It's the best, it's the fucking best, you know, And, and also
(37:50):
what happens when you go throughthis emotional journey of
becoming emotionally aware and intelligent, You get away from
the ego, you know, right. And you come back to just being
free and authentic. And what happens is you're able
to actually like see things froma different vantage point where
people don't trigger you anymore, especially the people
(38:12):
that you've had these conversations with or you've
tried to be vulnerable with or, or have these open conversations
with to try to help them understand your feelings and how
they make you feel when they saycertain things.
Like immediately, as soon as my wife says something to me that
triggers me or hurts my feelingsor something like that, I
immediately tell her, hey, don'tsay that to me.
You know, that's this is how that makes me feel or whatever,
(38:35):
you know, or you're overusing this word or you're abusing this
word or this is really like not healthy.
You know, if I feel something and it's not healthy for me or
doesn't make me feel empowered or whatever, guess what?
I ain't saying quiet. You got to communicate, you
know, and I think that's the biggest thing that we're lacking
in life, in relationships is thelack of transparency, the lack
(38:56):
of communication and the assumptions that, you know,
people will get it, you know, people understand or whatever.
And it's like, Nah, man. Like if you want a relationship
to thrive, you got to give, you know, don't expect people to
just, you know, message you and,and everything's going to be
fine if you're not pouring as well.
(39:17):
You know, it takes 2 to tango. Yeah.
What a saying. So now that I've gone through
this journey of understanding mybody, understanding myself, you
know, this whole emotional eating and all this stuff, and I
know some, a lot of people out there suffer with it more than
than than I have. You know, I'm very blessed
(39:38):
definitely to have the physique that I have, even though I could
overeat and whatever. But but now with this fasting.
And if you want to join our fasting community, just click
the link below WhatsApp community, it's free to join.
And today is actually I'm starting the fast because it's
Wednesday. So after dinner today, I won't
be eating until Friday morning. When I wake up, I'll go to the
(39:58):
gym and then I'll have breakfast, you know, And I'm
learning to because last week I did it on Thursday.
And then I fasted for like 36 hours because that's how much
time it is pretty much after dinner, you don't eat and then
you sleep and then you don't eatall day and you just have juice
and shit. But then when I ate in the
morning, I had like scrambled eggs and I felt like I ate too
(40:18):
much. And then for the next like hour,
2 hours, I had a headache, you know?
So I didn't eat for 36 hours andthen I had scrambled eggs.
So be mindful of like what you do to break your fast, you know?
So this time I'm going to have bone broth and I'm going to just
start it nice, easy on the gut, you know what I mean?
(40:40):
And then slowly, slowly, slowly,you know, get back into, you
know, your diet, right? But this is the beautiful thing.
Now I'm getting to this place asI finish up this podcast
episode. Thank you so much for tuning in.
I appreciate you guys. Now I'm getting to this place
where I am going to do this fasttoday.
And on Sunday I'm doing a five day fast, OK.
(41:05):
And because again, what do I want to do?
I just want to do a full detox, full detox, full reset, you
know? And yes, 100%, I'll probably
lose about 5 kilos for sure, right?
I know it. By the way, what's fucking 5
kilos? 10 lbs is a 55 kilos in pounds.
(41:27):
Yeah, 11 lbs. So 100% from Sunday to Friday,
I'm going to lose 11 lbs, no doubt about it.
I know 100% so and again, why amI doing it?
Because my health will improve, give my body a break, you know?
But I will still be juice and veggies blended in the blender,
(41:49):
whatever as like the meal replacements, right?
And it's definitely much easier,but I might challenge myself on
one of the days and just do a full water fast, you know?
But most importantly, this is where, like, I'm actually like,
I don't give a fuck if you don'tlike the way I look.
If I lose 5 kilos or 11 lbs, youknow, this is where I actually
step into the greatest version of myself where I'm not going to
(42:12):
sit here and go, oh, fuck, you know, you're a bit skinny.
You lost some weight or this andthat.
And it's like, yeah, fucking getover it.
You know, Like, who gives a fuck?
Like, yeah, I'm fucking healthy.I'm looking after myself, you
know, but even looking at what is that anyway?
Like, where did that come from that we have such a perception
of like, you know, you've lost weight or like, why do we do
(42:36):
that? I don't know.
Like I have never ever looked atsomeone and gone, Oh, you're
looking pretty skinny or oh, you've lost weight, you know,
like I don't know what it is, but I've never done that to
anyone, you know, like, I mean, obviously, you know, if
(42:59):
someone's dieting or whatever, I'll be like, wow, you've lost
weight. You look really good, you know,
as a compliment, but not like just throw it out there like,
oh, you're fucking skinny or youthis and that.
And the reason why I don't is because I know how it fucking
feels, you know, like who am I to make a judgement on someone
else? I didn't give Like, why would I
want to judge anyone? I don't want to judge people,
(43:20):
you know, So, you know, when you've been judged a lot all
your life, you know what it feels like.
So you don't want to hurt other people by doing it back to them.
And you don't know everyone's story.
You don't know what people have been through, you know.
But again, this is the thing, guys, the world can be a
difficult place, you know? Hence why it's up to you to
(43:43):
build your armour. It's up to you to have a
positive mindset. It's up to you to love yourself.
It's up to you to have your own back.
Because it's so easy to get judged.
It's so easy for people to call you names.
It's so easy for you to get programmed like that and for you
to feel like you're not worthy and you're not good enough.
And then you just want to kill yourself.
(44:05):
And that's the fuck thing, you know, that we do live in this
kind of world where a lot of people don't actually realise
that it can hurt someone or thatit can affect the way that you
live your life because of a judgement of, you know, someone
continuously judging you on how you look, you know?
So yeah, I look forward to beingmore healthier.
I look forward to losing some weight and not giving a fuck
(44:28):
about people judging me, you know so like I said, if you want
to join our fasting community onWhatsApp, there is a link in my
bio on Instagram on TikTok. You want to join click the link
there. It'll take you straight to
WhatsApp. If you're on YouTube right now
or you're watching this on a replay on YouTube, there is a

other platform. You'll see the links in the show
(44:50):
notes, but you can click the link, join our WhatsApp
community. And I look forward to going on
this journey of resetting our mind, body and spirit and, you
know, becoming healthier because, you know, the world out
there doesn't really support ourhealth in terms of food.
(45:11):
You know, there's so much shit out there and it's very, very
easy to just go and fucking get takeaway and have a burger and
keep eating, you know what I mean?
Or get a pizza, order a pizza. It's fucking easy.
Anyway, guys, thank you so much for spending time with me.
I trust that this episode was valuable for you.
And if it was, share it with your friends and let's keep
(45:31):
changing the world. All right, sending you a lot of
love. Thank you so much, and I'll talk
to you guys soon. See ya.
