In the first month of every New Year, an average of 43% of people fail at least one of their New Years resolutions in the first month. This startling statistic, coupled with the fact that weight loss is normally one of the top resolutions that someone makes, can create hesitancy in wanting to start something that may not "pan out." Today's guest, however, shares their version of a protein-type lifestyle that has not only shown massive success, but has provided results in the form of a set of books that equip readers (and those wanting to take on a new diet) to a whole new level. Today's guest, Joshua D. Noland, not only shares how this diet has fundamentally changed him physically, but how the mental health benefits have deepened his relationships with others and made him more focus and calm in approaching his daily life. Author of the Protein Lifestyle series of books, he breaks down practical tips that we can all use in our lives, regardless of our experiences with dieting & exercise, that will make us more healthy from the inside out.

Have you ever sat near a fire, either in the comfort of your own home in the winter or outside during a crisp, fall night, and think about what life has done in the past, present, or future? What kinds of thoughts, feelings, and emotions run through you? How do you conjure those same thoughts in the busyness of life and manifest the existence of that fire, smoke and embers, into yourself? Today’s episode allows you to experience that sensation, and so much more in how to stoke the fire inside of you, literally!

Intro/Outro By: Michael Dugan, Podcast Host: Voice4Chefs

People can teach us a lot about ourselves, even those that may be leading a sinful life. The ways in which we can live life can also be impacted by those other individuals, but only if we are willing to take lessons from their experiences and put them into practice for ourselves. This requires not only a level of trust, but commitment and dedication to the process that they are undergoing to become better than they once was. Today's guest, Joseph Descans, author of the book "HOSEA: The Prophet Who Married a Prostitute", shares his experiences with writing this book, originally starting out as a movie script concept, and how it has helped him to launch into other projects that was given by God's calling. Through his experiences, learn how you can adapt a deeper appreciation for not only hard work, but dedicating yourself to a particular purpose, "higher" or not, to show how you are able to conquer anything that you set your mind to.
