Description:

What happens when a suspected heart attack in your twenties becomes the catalyst for transforming thousands of lives? Mark Fennell, author of "Breakthrough" and renowned life coach, collapsed in a gym and was rushed to the hospital with what doctors thought was a heart attack. The real diagnosis was burnout, but the two years of crippling anxiety that followed changed everything. In this episode of Fountain of Vitality, host LaMont Leavitt dives deep into Mark's journey from losing 230 pounds during his darkest period to becoming a trusted coach for Fortune 500 CEOs. Mark reveals his unconventional method for helping people who feel completely stuck by separating their "head" from their "heart" to discover what they truly want. He shares the story of an NBA prospect who lost his contract due to injury but found even greater fulfillment as a coach, and explains why he believes everyone has a business inside them that aligns with their passion. From building his thriving online community called Tribe to launching a revolutionary weight loss program based purely on mindset shifts, Mark demonstrates how our greatest breakdowns often become our biggest breakthroughs.

Take Back Your Mind by Reducing Anxiety and Stress | Ep 4 | Fountain of Vitality

When anxiety feels overwhelming, most people think the solution is to eliminate anxious thoughts entirely. Lodro Rinzler, meditation teacher and author of "Take Back Your Mind," reveals why this approach backfires and shares a better strategy. Born into a Buddhist family and meditating since age six, Lodro discovered that meditation doesn't silence anxiety but changes your relationship with it entirely. In this episode of Fountain of Vitality, he teaches host LaMont Leavitt the simple "Is this helpful?" technique that stops anxious spiraling in its tracks and explains why sitting still for just five minutes can mysteriously create more time in your day. Lodro breaks down how our brains can't distinguish between a CNN alert and a saber-toothed tiger, why doom scrolling triggers the same evolutionary fear response as real danger, and shares his personal boundaries for consuming news without losing his sanity. For busy professionals who wear their hectic schedules as status symbols and anyone struggling with racing thoughts that hijack their focus, this conversation offers practical tools to reclaim mental space and discover the natural sense of peace that exists beneath the mental noise.

What happens when a serial entrepreneur bets everything on one last venture? Nathan Gwilliam has poured five and a half million dollars and six grueling years into his fourth startup, PodUp - and this month could make or break everything. In this explosive debut episode of Fountain of Vitality, host LaMont Leavitt sits down with Nathan as he reveals why chasing perfect daily balance nearly destroyed his previous companies and shares his controversial "extreme imbalance" philosophy that actually saved his family relationships. From grinding until 11 PM to land million-dollar clients to whisking his family away on spontaneous adventures to India and the Maldives, Nathan exposes how successful CEOs must master the art of swinging like a pendulum between intense work phases and deep family connection. He doesn't hold back about questioning his own sanity as an entrepreneur, juggling 35+ employees across two continents, or why he refuses to listen to audiobooks until he's finished his morning scripture study. This conversation shatters conventional wisdom about sustainable success and uncovers the true price of building businesses that deliver the freedom every entrepreneur craves.
