Whats Your Story w/ Mike & Scott

Kim Alexis wanted to be a pharmacist. A modeling school scout stared at her until the owner offered New York. She said no. She kept saying no. They asked to take pictures anyway. The poses were over the top. She was still learning in what was essentially "charm school." She told @mikelindstrom and @thescottleese how John Casablancas walked into the class where she thought she did not belong and signed her on the spot. Watch the full conversation below 👇. She still has those pictures. What plan did you have that life completely ignored?

Henry Kellem used to think abundance was just money. Then his daughter squeezed his hand and said school shoes snacks and time with dada the best. Coming from nothing, abundance meant getting enough money so everything would be okay. Once you get money your problems don't go away. Now it's time with family, energy, health. The things you can't buy. She grabbed my hand. Everything else disappeared. For me abundance is real quality time because we can't get it back. @htkellem told @mikelindstrom and @thescottleese how one squeeze rewrote what wealth looks like. Watch the moment his little girl changed the whole definition. What does abundance mean to you now that money alone can't buy it? #DirtRoadToRodeo #Abundance #QualityTime #WhatsYourStoryPod

Henry Kellem ended up one pound away from 3-4 years in prison. The voice told him to front two more pounds that day. He had 13 pounds. In North Carolina, 10 is automatic trafficking time. A buyer wanted two. Something said just front him two more. Ended up with nine. Setup. 30 police cars. Probation instead of years. Never would have finished college. @htkellem told @mikelindstrom and @thescottleese why he listens to that voice now. One more pound and the whole path changes. Watch the moment he explains the setback that almost ended everything. Have you ever had a voice tell you to do something that saved you later? What was it?

Rylee Baldri says baseball parents are the most wacky of any sport, and 8U is the craziest. She’s seen a dad’s artery look like it was about to burst over younger kids. @thehdwife told @mikelindstrom & @thescottleese the parents scream, yell, bang cans on the fence, and try to intimidate and taunt the kids. It gets really bad. She and @dallasbaldri usually don’t join in. One day she had a beer and yelled once when something wasn’t an even call on Sal.

Rylee met Dallas Baldri at the lowest point of her life. She had just lost her job and the money for her house. He was crashing on his sister’s couch with every dollar he had left in his pocket. @thehdwife told @mikelindstrom & @thescottleese she got pregnant within three months and wasn’t working. It was a rough start. What she loves about him is his integrity. He had a child at 17 and still paid for all of his own schooling. And they're still going strong today!

Dallas Baldri had a kid at 17 and graduated high school the day his daughter turned one. Then the 2008 crash took his house. He grew up in an entrepreneur family selling candy and pagers. @dallasbaldri told @mikelindstrom & @thescottleese he used becoming a dad as motivation. Law school, an MBA, and working for his uncle came next. Then everything crashed. He lost the house and slept in his car. His sister offered a couch in Utah. That’s where he met the woman who changed the next chapter.

Rylee Baldri was 18 when she had her first son. By 23 she was a single mom who had already bought their first house after his cancer diagnosis. Utah culture meant marriage and kids young. She followed it. @thehdwife told @mikelindstrom & @thescottleese that her son was diagnosed with cancer at one. His father was good, but they were both still kids. The stress ended the marriage. She did it alone. Bought the house at 23. Her dad always said give 150%. How you do anything is how you do everything. She still runs that way with her kids.

Scott Leese ranked the ways people show off wealth and put the flashiest option dead last. @thescottleese says an absurdly expensive watch feels like a complete waste. Cars barely moved the needle. He’d rather fill a wagon with surfboards. Real estate is what actually impresses him. Beach house. Lake house. Mountain house. A private jet is the one he can’t ignore. No TSA. No delays. Do whatever he wants. The guy who never shows any of it landed right in the middle. He knows someone worth an absurd amount who still drives a beat-up car and wears old jeans. You’d never know. @mikelindstrom just handed him the list and let him go. Watch the full ranking and see where the private jet actually landed.

Ian Lopatin says if you can only pick one thing, meditate. He does it outside in Phoenix with 30 hummingbirds circling his head. He told Mike Lindstrom (@mikelindstrom) and Scott Leese (@thescottleese) nature comes first, then the sit. Ian Lopatin cold plunged before the show in 100-degree heat. Two or three minutes in the water and the problems go quiet. Breathwork is the biggest hack he knows for the nervous system. Still, if the list gets cut to one, meditation wins. The full episode is on the channel if the birds got you. If you could only keep one, the plunge, the breath, or the sit, which one stays? #Meditation #Breathwork #IanLopatin #WhatsYourStoryPod
