Katie shares her upbringing in Queens in a crowded household, moving through Flushing to Long Island for better schools, studying psychology in college (three credits short of a degree), and working seven years at a law firm before leaving to travel, try coaching, network marketing, and trading. She discusses the psychology and emotional discipline behind trading, then explains how a tough season led her to write and launch a book centered on lessons like forgiveness, including practices such as writing and burning letters to release resentment. Katie recounts being blindsided and fired from an office job, reframing it through faith and perspective, and describes her renewed relationship with God through prayer, Bible reading, and church/community. She outlines her daily routine, authenticity on social media, and plans to launch a 66-day prompt journal and a transformation course, plus insights on leaving toxic relationships and building a healthy, faith-centered partnership.

Today on Double the Hustle, we sit down with life coach and founder of Agora Social Club, Vinny Brusco, to talk about men’s mental health, purpose, and building a powerful community from the ground up. From growing up in the Bronx and attending Catholic school to navigating the highs and lows of the radio industry and spending over a decade in car sales, Vinny shares how discipline, rejection, and resilience shaped his path.

We dive into the creation of Agora Social Club in Westchester County—a men’s community focused on connection, growth, and breaking the stigma around mental health. Vinny opens up about faith, imposter syndrome, mentorship, and his vision for a flagship space that blends wellness, brotherhood, and business. If you’re looking to level up mentally, spiritually, and professionally—this episode is for you.

Tori and Anna welcome Michael from Soul Fire Circle, whom they met at a Long Island coffee shop when he respectfully approached them for a reading on their late sister’s birthday.

Michael shares his background as a first-generation Italian American, a former heavy drinker who quit in 2018, and an education administrator who long felt something was missing. After stopping drinking, he noticed repeating numbers like 11:11, explored religion and spirituality, began meditating, and experienced visions, visitations, and signs he attributes to his grandmother, including a childhood healing and guidance toward mediumship through Lady Phyllis Best.

He discusses twin flames, life path/master numbers (11, 22, 33), intuition versus ego, raising frequency through meditation, grounding, sun exposure, diet and water, and practical manifestation through clear intention and aligned action.

On the Double the Hustle Podcast, hosts Tori and Anna interview Hudson Valley chef and content creator Bob Morano, a Culinary Institute of America graduate (2005) who helped open a Michelin-star restaurant in San Francisco. Bob shares how he moved from architecture and construction into cooking through a family friend’s deli, the influence of his Irish-Italian family’s food traditions, and favorite nostalgic foods like soda bread and his mother’s onion sauce.

He explains what culinary school is like, why it’s not required but can open doors, and gives advice on breaking into restaurant work through persistence and strong work ethic. Bob describes how a “Chef in the Classroom” program inspired his social media mission to make home cooking approachable, notes a salsa verde video as early traction, discusses why he rarely sends food back, recommends several Hudson Valley restaurants, and outlines future goals including long-form YouTube, travel, and a cookbook under “Every Day Is Feast Day.”
