Each episode of The Evolved Man with Steve Cutler is crafted to teach, entertain or inspire you by introducing you to guests who have either written a book, created something interesting, found a fascinating discovery or simply have an inspiring story.  Today’s episode will introduce you to Janae Thompson, an inspiring widow, mother and co-creator of one of YouTube’s biggest channels - The King of Random.  In this episode expect to hear an inspiring story of grief, pain, love and hope as host Steve Cutler discusses Janae’s inspiring navigation of life with a strong tie to authenticity, intention and intuition. Janae Thompson is a creator, writer, and mom of four who knows a thing or two about rebuilding life with grit and humor. She and her late husband co-created the wildly popular YouTube channel The King of Random, growing it to over 12 million subscribers with curiosity-driven experiments and big-hearted fun. After his passing, Janae stepped into solo parenting while sharing her journey through her blog, Follow the Energy of the Day, where she writes about healing, resilience, and finding meaning in everyday chaos. She’s now channeling that mission into a new nonprofit designed to gift widowed parents and their kids fully funded, memory-making vacations that help them breathe, reconnect, and rediscover joy. Warm, candid, and creatively unstoppable, Janae brings a refreshing voice to conversations about loss, growth, and starting over with intention.

Mom, Dad, Grandma, Grandpa…they all have stories to be told; stories to be brought forward, cultivated and curated. Research shows that one of the best things we can do to teach our kids resilience is to help them understand where they come from. Who was grandpa? What did he go through? What were his successes? What challenges did he face? What is your lineage? What mattered to those that went before you? Join host Steve Cutler as he talks with Jaxon Cummings, founder of Life Legacy Studios and host of The Life Legacy Podcast.  After losing his father before he could capture his full life story Jaxon felt compelled to create a company that helps families curate and capture family stories to preserve for future generations.   As a modern day storyteller Jaxon’s documentary work has been featured in People Magazine, Newsweek, and Inside Edition.  Outside of storytelling, Jaxon and his brothers operate a private investment portfolio primarily focused on real estate. Through Life Legacy Studios, Jaxon has helped hundreds of families capture and preserve the stories of their loved ones often just in time. In this episode expect to learn the power of capturing your loved one’s stories, what is missed when we don’t capture the stories and how knowing your history can help you preserve your loved one’s legacy.  Connect with Jaxon:  Instagram HERE LinkedIn HERE  Email HERE LISTEN | WATCH SUBSCRIBE TO “LIFE LEGACY STUDIOS” Website HERE  Instagram HERE  Facebook HERE   YouTube HERE  LISTEN/WATCH/SUBSCRIBE TO “THE LIFE LEGACY PODCAST” Apple Music HERE Spotify HERE  YouTube Podcasts HERE   Amazon Music Podcasts HERE  iHeartRadio Podcasts HERE Follow Us!

All high performing men and women struggle to transfer the high performing traits into at least one other area of life. The CEO who is 50lbs overweight. The dynamic team builder who is on the brink of divorce. Part and parcel to success is the dichotomy of a driven personality and focus that becomes a hurdle in other areas of life.  But what if you could take what made you successful in one area and learn to transfer that success into other areas without sitting around and talking about your feelings? That’s where ABA or applied behavioral analysis comes in.  Join host Steve Cutler, The Executive Fitness Coach and CEO of EVOLVE International as he discusses how high performing men and women can make drastic changes in life by applying a system of behavior change rooted in measurable and visible change.  In this episode Steve and behavioral change expert Sarah Welsh discuss why ABA is a more impactful and more practical approach for high performers, why most people misunderstand the science of motivation and how you can start a process of lasting change today.  Sarah Welsh is a Board Certified Behavior Analyst based in Columbus, OH, who helps high-performing individuals build lasting systems for success in health, business, and personal growth. She’s worked with former professional athletes, executive teams, founders, lawyers, and medical professionals to create lasting behavior change and consistency in their daily lives. Excited about an analytic approach to personal development, she uses her AMMI framework - Assess, Monitor, Manage, and Identify. Sarah helps clients break down their habits, analyze the systems maintaining their behavior, and rebuild them intentionally. Her work bridges behavioral science with real-world performance, teaching people how to think like a behavior analyst in their own lives so they continue leveling up long after coaching ends.   Connect with Sarah:   Web: www.catalystbehaviorproject.com    IG: https://www.instagram.com/sarahwelshbehavior/   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarah-welsh-a403a531a/   Follow Us!

The highest form of leadership for a man is being a father There is nothing more powerful and more difficult than the role of father You can't fire the kids when they don't perform Performance improvement plans and write ups don't work so well in this setting either And, what makes it even more difficult is the fact that the mistakes? The bad habits? They are often a reflection of the qualities our kids mimic in us, making them a mirror to our own failings.  Recently Pete Durand wrote a post on LinkedIn detailing the 5 things his father taught him without ever saying a word.  Join Pete, CEO of Cruxible Partners and Steve Cutler for a discussion on fatherhood in The Evolved Man 176 today!
