Here are the highlights of this episode:

Barry shared with us that the ideal people whose attracted in what he and his team does, are people who are sad; suffering from stress, anxiety, and mild depression. Stress us sucking the life of these people, and the 3 possible roots of their stress can either be family, finances, and fitness or health. They will continue to suffer if they don’t know how to reduce, eliminate, and leverage.

People tend to each so much of the wrong food, they tend to drink too much, tend to be irritable, not to be able to have a restful sleep, and people tend to exercise less or they over exercise and they’re stressing themselves. People think joy is a byproduct of success. And once they become to recognize that joy is ‘foundational’ to success, it opens a floodgate of understanding on how to solve problems. JOY stands for “Journey Of You”.
