EP #219 CHERISH THE MOMENT - CHELSEY KIEFER
Hey, my name is Chelsey Kiefer. I am a now retired hairstylist after working behind the chair for a decade. I grew up in a small town in California called Sonora. I am one of six kids in my family. I grew up less fortunate than most and had lots of childhood trauma that is now unraveling today. I knew I wanted to do hair since I was a child. I went to cosmetology school in high school when I was 16 it was my zero,first, and second period. When I was 18 I got licensed I will be 30 this coming spring! I started working seriously behind the chair when I was 21! When I moved to Stockton I started working at the salon called POMP Salon. I was able to build a full clientele within four months and got off the commission program and started paying booth rent! And the last couple of years I’d be considered a “6 figure stylist.”
I have been sponsored by some amazing companies in the hair industry. I’ve taught on stage at amazing hair shows all over the US! And I’ve taught some amazing classes all over the US teaching what I specialized in which was balayage! After I had my daughter I started dealing with some major health issues. It all started when I found a lump in my left breast! When my daughter was about a year old as one that started and within the course of her second year of life I was dealing with having a double mastectomy and reconstruction. During this time I was getting blood work done constantly as you could imagine, and learned I also have some thing called lupus which is an auto immune disease. Since I got diagnosed with lupus I go to specialists in Stanford and I see about six doctors there to help with my autoimmune issues! Along with lupus I had been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, Reynards disease, fibromyalgia, and antiphilosophlipid syndrome Which is a very rare blood clotting disease which can happen in people with autoimmune issues. This is generally the biggest cause of why I had a stroke in April of this year. I am 29 years old and suffered from a stroke. Definitely something you don’t hear of often! This is actually what finally led to my decision to retire from behind the chair as a hairstylist! Through this journey I have had obviously lots of ups and downs. I have dealt with some severe depression in this last year which I’ve never had to deal with before. And it’s also bringing up a lot of childhood trauma that I experienced! Another reason why I am extremely passionate about helping those who happen depression or anxiety. I didn’t realize how debilitating depression and anxiety is until this last year. With that being said I am no longer behind the chair but I did start an online clothing boutique, And a portion of my proceeds get donated to mental health organizations! Fashion has always been something that I love so this is a way for me to stay busy working from home, and also give back to others.

EP #215 INTEGRITY BASED BUSINESS - MIKE MALATESTA
MIKE MALATESTA
I love supporting and helping entrepreneurs bring their dreams to fruition, break through barriers, and achieve massive success. I've lived in their shoes since I was 26 and I've been through - and am still on - the roller coaster they are. I've experienced the ,excitement pain, grit, and mistakes that come with every entrepreneurial journey.
I'm an entrepreneur who has helped start, grow, and sell two amazingly successful waste management companies. One sold for mid-8 figures and the other sold for low-9 figures.
I know how hard it is to be an entrepreneur and what a long shot it can be to achieve the success and freedom that are the entrepreneurial goal. I also know what it takes to get there.
I’m a servant [and selfish] leader with a proven talent for developing exciting vision and mission initiatives, building the teamwork talent and systems necessary to realize those initiatives, and executing with a team to deliver the desired results.

After the loss of one of my twin sons to Cancer in April of 2005, I walked away from my career at Chrysler and threw myself into entrepreneurship. I have spent the last 17 years pursuing my potential and my vision of building Coffee Junkiez & Pizza Junkiez into national brands, which is a dual brand under one roof food & beverage concept.
I also have a desire to run a congruent path of championing small business, which is what led to the creation of my podcast "Julius Files" along with a series of books that are in process with the intent of accelerating the learning curve for anyone entering the small business service sector!
I would describe myself as a blue collar laborer turned entrepreneur with A LOT to say! I want to tell, show, and highlight through others, what I believe is the real story behind small business entrepreneurship.
My target for my first year entering the podcast world is to both produce 100 podcasts and also be interviewed on 100 podcasts; to tell my story and promote others, both in the podcast space as well as the small business world.
What all started as a coping mechanism from grief turned into embracing my drive to succeed and live! I believe quality of life is more important than life itself and I want to inspire as many as I can to be accountable for themselves and live their lives to their fullest no matter their chosen path!

EP #211 GRATEFULNESS- WHAT YOU HAVE IS ENOUGH - BROOKLYN CARDENAS - ENTREPRENEUR, WIFE & MOM
Hello,
I'm brooklyn.
I wear many hats. (figuratively and literally.....and they are not all yellow) I'm a mom, wife, hair stylist, salon owner, platform artist and educator. I attribute all my accomplishments to the fact that I'm fueled by coffee and hip hop music. I comb, paint and pin hairs. But most of all. I connect with people. I believe I get the opportunity to simply make people feel like a glammed up version of themselves.

EP #210 VIRTUAL SUCCESS - PAVEL STEPANOV - FOUNDER & CEO VIRTUDESK
Pavel Stepanov founded Virtudesk in 2016, because he saw that virtual assistants are an integral part of a small business. Prior to creating Virtudesk, Pavel was selling real estate full time and operated a real estate brokerage. He saw how much time was spent on tasks that do not generate revenue directly, but still must be done in order to run a successful business. He first hired a virtual assistant in the Philippines to help him with prospecting and admin tasks and focused only on work that directly generated income. He saw not only amazing growth of the business, but also better quality of life as he was finally able to get out of daily hamster wheel grind and spend more time with his family. After all, time is the only commodity that is available equally to everybody and one cannot buy more of it.
Virtudesk started out with only a couple of virtual assistants and a dream to make the world a better place for busy professionals and now the company is proud to be at the forefront of the industry providing jobs for hundreds of employees. Pavel believes that the people of Virtudesk are major assets to the company and treats them like family. When Covid-19 pandemic hit the world, Virtudesk did not lay off a single employee and made sure that all employees all had jobs and income to support their families during these unprecedented times.
Pavel strongly believes that virtual assistants are becoming more involved in the day-to-day operations of small and medium-sized enterprises and is becoming a driving force for business owners. He is looking forward to expanding the company and doubling
the output and revenue for this year.
