What are values? In a nutshell, values are the things that matter to us. The trick is that you define and live yours in your own way. Taking the time to identify and connect with your own set of core values can help you in many ways, big and small, and everything in between. Our values can help us through life's challenges, guide our decision making and remind us why we do the things we do on a daily basis. Through this interview style podcast, we share real conversations with real people about what matters to them and what it means to live your values. Our hope is that each episode will inspire and help you discover or uncover your own set of core values as well as provide useful tools and strategies to help you align and practice them more consistently. In a nutshell, our goal is to help you do more of what matters so that you can live a more meaningful and fulfilling life, and who doesn't want that? Host and Jersey boy, Mike "Bagel", brings his own stories and experiences to the table in this insightful and entertaining podcast. Bagel has done everything from pulling an "Office Space" and leaving an anxiety-ridden corporate job, to moving to a completely new state to start a new life as a Career Counselor, only then to pursue his lifelong dream of hitting the road and traveling cross-country. This led him to discovering his new path of entrepreneurship, founding Free Your Time Virtual Assistants, and now primarily he works as a Small Business Counselor in the Charlotte, NC area. More important than any of these "credentials,” Bagel truly loves getting to know people on an individual level, and believes all are connected in some way. Whether through the lens of career and business, big life choices, or just casual water-cooler conversation, he finds joy in providing a platform for people to share their stories and helping them figure out what matters most, so they can do more of it and feel fulfilled.

In part two of this lively and passionate episode, you'll hear Justin continue his real-life text bombs on:

  1. Differentiating transparency and honesty
  2. Thriving BECAUSE of the hardships you face, not IN SPITE of them, like the Blues musicians of the 1930s
  3. Doing right by your natural talents instead of curating an image of success
  4. Considering both sides to all things and living your life in the balance

We neatly wrap up the episode talking about finality, and how it can give us the perspective we need to give life meaning.

Brooklyn-born. Jersey-raised. Educator. Fitness lover. Rocker. Husband. Father. Son. Ancona shares his take on IG bios.

This doozy of a conversation with Bagel's "8th best friend" is for anyone out there who has resisted starting something, struggles with follow through, sets goals and sometimes doesn't stick to them, or even feels overcommitted. We break down the importance of both, "just starting," and "showing up," and why it's crucial to give and get feedback.

"Unless you get started, you're always going to remain where you are."
