Think Bigger Podcast

Is money the word that comes to mind to fill in the blank in the episode title? It’s understandable if it does. We get into that - what about pain, though? How much pain does it take before we learn our lessons and change? Can’t we learn from others’ hardships and experiences all around us and apply it? Or does it HAVE to happen to us first, and if so, WHAT needs to happen to us for us to decide to prep and plan NOW and be proactiv...

This episode features an insightful discussion on automotive culture, personal passions and foundations for business and pride in bringing value and quality to the culture and the industry - as well as delve into what has led up to the creation of the ever-growing Motorcar Cavalcade Concours d'Elegance, and why it stands out amongst its peers. Thank you to Jason for having me at his esteemed workshop, and to the Charis Culture...

Whether the loss of a home, or the loss of a loved one, life can (*WILL) hit each and every one of us with disasters that can break us and make us feel like our whole world burned to the ground. The question is, what good can be found in a disaster? From mental to physical and literal, in this episode we discuss the ways to look at what others have gone through, what we have gone through, and how there are so many good things that ...

And just like that 2025 is almost over… well, the first week of 2025 is almost over. And, in all seriousness, do you feel like we’re a WEEK into the new year? No! None of us do. But, I think it’s a perfect reminder already that if we do not get focused on the things that we want to do and accomplish, we will find ourselves saying, “Oh look at that, 2025 is almost over and I didn’t accomplish what I said I would… again!” So, my frie...

If you're looking for negative, you will find it. If you're looking for positive, you'll find that, too... at every point in our journey of life, in very obstacle and heartache, in every milestone and accomplishment, what you think about and train your eyes and heart to look for is what you will find... it seems obvious enough, and therefore easy to control, and yet we all as people need the strong reminder to stay v...

What are your full circle moments? Are they ones where you find yourself right back where you started? Or are they ones where you have a moment of clarity and recognition about a time from the past? Did you look up to someone and now you are that someone? Or, perhaps, you said you'd lose weight and then after losing it you gain it all back and find yourself standing back at square one? There are MANY types of of these full cir...

What was your answer to last episode's question(s)? And better yet, what are you going to do about it, and how? In this episode we discuss the simple yet profound ways that we can change from feeling like we are out of control and a victim to time, to how we can seize the day and seize control of time and use it... not let it use us. From changing the words that we speak and text, to changing the mindset that goes before and/o...

Do you ever feel like life is just passing you by? That you’re sitting there watching the world around you move and you’re not moving with it? That instead of feeling like you’re in the driver’s seat controlling the direction and speed of your life, that you’re sitting in the passenger seat unable to control anything and you just kinda of exist on the journey rather than controlled it? In this episode we explore this feeling that S...

The three most profound gifts that any of us will ever be given is what we discuss in this new episode of the Think Bigger Podcast. Additionally, we go over T as she continues to battle breast cancer (her story is shared in the previous episode, Ep. 62). But yes... Life, Time, and Health - the pursuit of which can lead to a lifetime of health. Each individually and how they are intrinsically connected to one another. I know you&apo...

This episode is special because our guest, T, spent time with me in person to talk and share her story with all of us the night before she went in to have surgery to remove both of her breasts. Yes, you read that correctly. She just finished 6 rounds of Chemotherapy and the doctors said the next step was to surgically remove lymph nodes and her breasts to remove any remaining cancer cells and to help prevent any from returning. So ...

IF YOU'RE NOT GIVING, YOU'RE TAKING - What does that mean? The reality is that there is no neutral ground, there is no time where we can get complacent and lazy and not be thinking about how we are contributing to our relationships and giving to our loved ones, our friends, our community, and our culture. It means that our very existence inside of that relationship takes from the other person and people, so we must always...

The time is now! The time to... make a change, make progress on what you've been procrastinating on, eat better, exercise more, get healthier... anything and everything, THE TIME IS NOW. From people in the community whose lives have changed drastically due to a medical emergency, to  the clock of life simply ticking away on all of us, to just listening to positive words to inspire and re-inspire you do a small thing or a big t...

On this new Community Conversations episode, we sit down in Boca Raton, FL, inside the Salvage 2 Savage shop with it's owner and founder, Mikey Rolleri. From his hardworking father to his creative mother, Mikey brings us into his relationship with his family, God, and the life that brought him up into being a fabricator, builder, and creative that started Salvage 2 Savage!

From racing shifter karts to wrenching on cars, to working at the ID Agency and Motortrend, to then creating his own company - the BMS Brand - my friend Brandon Scarpelli has an amazing resume and a work ethic and energy that is borderline unmatched. His successes and growths speak volumes, and it was an honor and a pleasure to sit down with him in his home to have a conversation for the community and for the culture.

I l...

From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU. It is because of your messages in person and on my IG livestreams, DM's, and comments, that I know how much the Think Bigger Podcast has and does mean to all of you. It is because of all of you that I have fought through my personal struggles and hardships and gotten back on the mic to create and provide this podcast for us to listen to and think about. I do it for the community, for the...

This profound rhetorical question and episode we explored in the beginning of the #ThinkBiggerPodcast (see Ep. 5) and we return as so much has happened recently to me and to people around me that it inspired a Part 2. Thank you for listening and thinking!

I deeply appreciate all of you for sticking with me here as I fight through my personal battles. and journey in life and work through them all to continue this podcast. M...

HAPPY NEW YEAR! We are kicking off 2022 with Season 2 of the podcast. There has been SO MUCH going on in my personal life that has prevented me (or should I say, that I ALLOWED to prevent me) from being in the right frame of my mind to create for you guys. But it is because of all of you reaching out to me and letting me know how much the content means to you that I pushed and pushed myself and stepped out of my comfort zone to cre...

On our newest episode of the podcast we sit down with the one and only Sung Kang. Perhaps most notably known for playing the beloved Han in the Fast & Furious movie series, his role in the fantastic movie Better Luck Tomorrow is where I first learned about Sung. Over the years we've developed mutual friends and acquaintances, and it was an honor to finally be able to sit down and converse with Sung about life, perspective,...

The people we spend time with, the social media pages we follow and like and subscribe to, the companies that we support... do our actions ACTUALLY show that we believe in quality over quantity like we all say we do? Or are we not actually putting in to practice in the REAL WORLD what we swear we believe in? In this episode, we talk about it...

I look forward to hearing your thoughts on this topic and conversation! After y...
