Now live. Good morning. Great morning to you. Happy Thursday. I'm not gonna do all these lives and I don't like, you know, I'm not, definitely not trying to do anything but just starting it off with love. That's what we need right now. What's up? Writing Sci fi S. Lynn Chain. How you doing? There you. There she is. Philly, how you doing? Great morning. Just, you know, there's a lack of truth in this world and we just need love and light right now. And bing sign. And great morning to you, Philly Molecular Mike. One of my favorites. Boom. We're giving waves today. Wish we could get a heartbeat too. Morning, brother. What's up? How are you? Yeah, just starting it off definitely. Right. Little gold serum. Like the fifth application so far. And obviously the OG presence bottle that we're trying to duplicate. I don't like the word try, but this one isn't. It's not biophotonic glass. It's definitely made in Italy, but it's not bio photonic glass. This is the old one, the first one. It just looked great and so. It looks great. But how do we get Marone? Well, words have power. So maybe this will be the start of that. Because the current one is. It's beautiful, don't get me wrong, but it's kind of. It's not this. I mean, geez, look at this, right? It's like an egg, which is the womb. Right. And it's beautiful. Like there's symbolism in everything that you do. At least it can be. What is your number one advice to aspiring entrepreneurs? Thank you for the question. What an honor to be asked. Don't go in it for the money. Don't be money minded. Geez, we can feel that from afar. It repels me. And so I stay away from anybody that. And luckily I see it so clear, feel it so clearly and see it and I'm polite to them and I just, you know, wish them well along their day. A lot of people feed a lot of parasites try to feed off of. How you doing today, brother? What's up? Better now. How are you? Taylor Sun, Uganda. Can't wait to come visit. Was that Queen Elizabeth Lake? Oh, I know. Yeah, I can't wait to visit. That's next. Queen. Is it Queen Elizabeth Lake? I've heard so much. Crater Lake. Oh, in the sacred space that. That is. How are you doing? Hi brother. Oh yeah, sorry too. Again, I'm just wired off of love. But anyway, to answer your question, Ulrich, I appreciate it. Look, I fell into this accidentally when I was 29, 30, I got, you know, hit and run over by two cars and fell into making a product that I remember looking at mixing. It wasn't a product. It was this DIY clay mask that I had been doing for years before that. And I couldn't afford the creams and serums that the doctors were recommending that I used to counteract the scarring and abrasions. And I was like, wait a minute. You're gonna tell me, but what I have at home is better. I care of orphans. That's awesome. You're doing God's work. Great work. Keep going, man. If we can be of any support, please let me know. If you wouldn't mind contacting me privately. Andylatura.com is my email. Andylatura.com. we can help with that. We will help with that. How about that? Thank you, by the way. Mike, let me get back to you right this. Okay, I'll follow you back. Sorry, man. Everything happens for you. That's why I love your story. Thank you. Thank you. That's really. Thank you. Katie, baby, what do you use for leg pain as possible sciatica? Okay, one second. Let me get back to the entrepreneurial advice. Hey, would you mind turn on the ac, please? I love you, baby. And then so entrepreneurial advice. Oh, just pay. Keep following your heart beforehand. Like, right now, like, in this moment, even if you are an entrepreneur. Okay, so number one, you got to pay bills. Here's what you go. Number one, you got to pay bills. Right? So get as many jobs as you can. I know it sucks, but the eye in the sky sees it all. And, like, if you're grinding as hard as you can and, like, paying as much, as much as you can, then taking care of your body and your soul all throughout. Like, all the money I made went straight to the farmer's market. And then you're meeting creators and growers all throughout. But your identity, well, health is very important to me leading up to this. Well, still, definitely. But, like, I'd ask you don't use pesticides. What do you. What do you use then? Oh, cayenne pepper. You hear all these different remedies, but you look in the eye and then when the soul spoke, boom, I buy it. Even if I didn't really, you know, want to eat it, meaning, like peanuts or legumes or other. But I usually would just to support, because I think it's just part of the process. Support. You know, if they love growing it, boom, you're going to consume that love and Then and then that's what it is. But yeah, make it. Make as much money as you can. Look, I had bills to pay. I just didn't want to ask people for money ever. Still don't, never will. And like, so just get as many jobs as you can, but, like, work as hard as you can because that work ethic is a muscle that gets stronger when you exercise it, right? So I had five jobs or whatever, nighttime, and I was an actor during the day living my dream, right? So like following this thing that, like this belief, right? So even if you got told no, which was a lot, because I never got sent out, so I didn't have the best pictures and. But when I did get sent out, I got feedback short early on. I mean, I've got my SAG card. Like, wasn't even audition. I got upgraded as an extra to a principal, which paid a lot. A lot, a lot, if that makes sense. So, like, extra to principal, which means I got paid residuals every Friday and Monday when checks came in. That was like the first time I really experienced abundance to a different level. And that allowed me to be mindful and like, my spending or whatever. But what would I do? I travel and buy cool things that I love. And I luckily was able to do that early on, but it took a while. And you can't give up. You got to realize that's. That's part of the plan. You got to work as hard as you can and just go, look, I'm alive. I have, you know, I can walk, I can work out, I can walk to the gym. If you don't have a car. I kept. Yeah, bought a car. Honda Civic, Honda Accord, you know, reliable car, low mileage. Be mindful about that. Even with the people that you see, you know, ideally clean title so it doesn't break down on you. So you're losing your energy, which is financial funds to. To live and to provide the fuel for your beautiful cells in your body. But take care of your body, mind and soul daily with good nutrition. Do your research. I did all mine on my own, but I listened to the people and luckily I were led to the people that really fed me information on adaptogenic herbs. Good nutrition. I've been doing anyway, not trying to, right. But I've been doing this for a long time. So, like, I knew about colostrum, knew about adaptogenic herbs, knew about vitamin. The importance of vitamin C, ascorbic acid, detoxing early saunas following my godfather, Uncle Jack, because I just thought it was cool. He was Jacked it like Jack was jacked it like in his 40s because he stayed consistent in the gym. So go. I believe working out, exercising the cells that man you got given blessed with, you get to live, you get to work out. And being an athlete obviously created that discipline that I had to work out 6am weights. And then I was a two way player towards the end of my career, so it was like double up on conditioning, weights and going through all these things. So like as a pitcher and outfielder at Saint Mary's anyway, so that stuck with me. Judd Soto, you're awesome. We had to shave every day too. So like, I don't shave every day now. But like the discipline, it's a long winded answer and I'm probably talking a little bit too much. But anyway, I hope that helps, dude. And you're more than welcome to contact me to find out or just ask more. Thank you for the question. I. All right, Molecular Mike. Oh, one of my favorite dudes. What is your number one adaption you take on a daily ba da daily basis? Okay, so great question, man. I want to say hoshu woo H e space S h o u space wou or w. It's called faux t photi o f o t I in parentheses. It's this ancient Chinese herb for vitality. And I learned about that when I was 19, 20 and it took tablespoons. It turned my whole hair blonde hair brown. But I started to get strays of gray. Mr. Moya, this professor at St. Mary San Mateo. So I guess I was 20. You got graze in your beard, man. And so like I was like, what? So I started looking up, like how to reverse grays and faux t herb popped up. So I started buying it by the kilo and that's what I would take. Tablespoon, which. And then I found out that you probably shouldn't take a tablespoon, but it turned my whole hair brown and definitely reversed those grays and slowed them down. But now I'm like, you know, living in a little silver moment. But that's fine. I love it. I'm alive, dude. So I hope that answers your question because now it's a central ingredient in our supplement. And I'm not trying to sell you revitalize, but like, yeah, that Shazandra chaga reishi spirulina hoshuwu ganostemma ashwagandha, Turmeric extract, black pepper. Am I missing one? I think there's nine beautiful ingredients. I'll have to grab the bottle, but hope that makes sense and answers your question, Mike, and hope you have a great your day. What do you use for leg pain as possible sciatica? I'm not an expert. What I would recommend is foam roller stretching. Zoe here has a beautiful, like, wheel that she rolls on. Stretching and then doing, like, leg swings with your hips, opening up those hips, you know what I mean? Going on walks. That's what I recommend. But I'm not an expert, just an athlete. Taylor, son, please. Yeah, just contact, email me, brother. Yeah, and I get asked questions all day for money, man. Just being honest. Like, I don't like it too much. I'll come visit you. I'd love to volunteer that as well. That's the best thing you do is offer your time. Money if you have it. But I like to use money. I donate so much. I believe in giving back and I will. Just please contact me privately. No professional or publicly. All right. Hey, you guys have the best day. Wow. What a way to start it off. We need love in this world and you guys are providing, see?
