Instructor Thompson of Dragonfly academy of integrated defensive arts and My self defense studio..

Salutatuons!
I'm instructor Thompson, a firearms instructor, range safety officer, certified firearms specialists ( allows me to testify in court on firearms and ammunition) and a martial arts instructor. I have twenty seven years in as a teacher, and a practitioner of 31 in Ed Parkers Kenpo.
To keep it brief in 2014 a student of mine was brutally, murdered with a knife. He wasn't just a student. He was a family friend and ever since and for more than a decade, I have been studying, creating and building solutions that were not generally known and much of which wasn't even publicly available. As a student first I started cross training in everything I could possibly find. Looking for a solution to how to stop a knife attack. At the time I thought I knew, I was wrong! I promised his parents who were friends of mine that I would always keep his name alive in the bravery of his actions trying to stop someone who just and took the life of his best friend in front of him. I went to Kali, Muay Thai and firerarms. I've spent every day since studying in practicing on how to survive a stabbing event. I run a couple of companies and with my business partner. Those words, " a stabbing event" belong to my colleague Michael. His own experiences were similar to mine, and what he says is, knife defense doesn't exist. There's simply surviving a stabbing event! We created Dragonfly academy of integrated defensive arts. Specializing in managing violence, and specifically on a mission to help serve marginalized communities like LGBTQ+, indigenous and native population, and groups that face targeted acts of violence. We built this to help save lives, because self defenses is for everyone! But not everyone has equal access, our mission is to help those who really need it survive! Our mission is for those groups but our work is for everyone. We want to help as many people as we can and ensure they understand what survival looks like across the spectrum. Because violence and self defense training are not one thing, they're both many things!

Todd Sarner is a licensed psychotherapist, parent coach, and founder of Transformative Parenting. Since 2004, he has helped thousands of parents create calmer homes, stronger relationships, and more cooperation with their children without relying on punishments, scripts, or constant power struggles.

Todd’s work is grounded in attachment science, developmental psychology, and neuroscience. He is a former faculty member of the Neufeld Institute and was mentored within Dr. Gordon Neufeld’s developmental, attachment-based framework. His approach helps parents look beneath behavior to understand what is actually driving their child’s struggles, while also helping parents build the emotional steadiness and leadership needed to create real change.

He specializes in helping thoughtful, high-achieving parents who often feel overwhelmed, discouraged, or stuck between harsh discipline and overly permissive parenting. Through his Transformative Parenting Process, Todd teaches families how to strengthen attachment, improve regulation, create a healthier home environment, and respond to behavior in ways that are both effective and relationship-based.

Todd is also the author of The Calm & Connected Parent, which offers an attachment-first blueprint for raising resilient children in a world shaped by screens, stress, and AI.

I'm Kasey F. Jackson, a husband, father and the inventor of the Hunkerin Stool. I have been an athlete my whole life, football, MMA, Ju-Jitsu and strongman competitor. After years of destroying my body, I was led to invent the Hunkerin Stool so I had a better way to rest in a deep squat. Alongside my wife, with our three children, we are now building this business and rapidly growing around the world. I am now physically pursuing a way to reverse the damage I have done to my body by listening to my body and changing how I train and move.

Brain Red Light Expert

Sarah is the founder and CEO of CeraThrive, with a science background and a focused interest in how light influences biology, particularly circadian rhythms, mitochondrial function, and brain health.

Her perspective is shaped not only by research, but by hands-on experience, including involvement in clinical trials in neurodegeneration, where she saw first-hand the impact that targeted light therapies can have.

What makes her valuable to podcast audiences is her ability to connect that science with real-world application. Rather than presenting health as a set of complex protocols, she explores how modern environments, especially disrupted light exposure, are quietly affecting energy, sleep, and long-term resilience.

She also speaks to the idea of agency in wellness and ageing, drawing on both personal experience and ongoing research, and challenging the assumption that decline is inevitable.

Successful in business. But Love hurts?

Ingeborg Mooiweer is an executive coach with 35 years of experience helping high-achieving executives break the patterns that make them brilliant at work and struggling at home.
She helps executives who have built everything they wanted, except a love life that works.

I grew up with a narcissistic mother. I didn't have language for it then, I just knew that love felt conditional, that being enough meant being safe, and that I learned to read rooms before I learned to trust people.
That pattern followed me into my career. And into my marriage.
I became exceptional at work. I built a practice, helped organisations, and earned the trust of C-suite executives across the world. Professionally, everything looked right.

But in the span of two and a half years, I lost seven people who mattered most to me. Grief upon grief, with no room to breathe. Those losses cracked something open and confirmed what I had been seeing for 35 years in my work: the patterns we develop in childhood to survive become the patterns that silently erode our closest relationships as adults.

I call them survival codes. For most high-achieving executives, one of three codes is running the show right now and they have no idea.
