Byte: Justin Nault ~ Accept The Help (And Change Your Life!)

Justin tells a story of fate-and help, in this byte-sized episode. But especially he tells of how moving outside his comfort zone, and accepting money from a friend, changed everything for him! (it certainly changed the life of his now fiance!) It's a simple story, but a profound one, which leads to an even bigger question - what happens when we truly open ourselves to others... and the help they want to give?

Transcript

Hello everyone and welcome to your weekend edition of the Bite-Sized Blessings podcast.

This weekend I'm introducing you to Justin Nalt and I had such a great time talking to him.

We talked everything and including bringing in the old show Fantasy Island.

Now you may ask yourself how does that iconic program even merit a conversation in your podcast Kirsten?

But if you stay tuned and you listen you'll see how we eventually got there.

Now Justin has had such an interesting life and his work is so profound.

He was a child musical prodigy and from there grew up to playing over 300 shows a year.

He had his own reality TV program.

He was doing The Grind and then one day,

One day his niece was born and what she was diagnosed with changed everything for him.

Changed the entire trajectory of his life.

Now Justin is doing work to help others become healthier,

Become their best selves,

To love themselves because Justin is a certified nutritional therapist and a specialist in sports and fitness nutrition.

He founded Clovis and Personal Evolution Coaching and it's clear that his message is resonating with so many but I personally think that it's because Justin is funny,

He's approachable,

He's kind and he's generous of spirit and I think you'll hear all of that during this episode.

So without further ado,

Let's get to my really delightful conversation with Justin Nault.

When I first got into talk therapy,

When I realized the music industry was not fulfilling to me and I was incapable of intimate relationships,

I got into talk therapy and I had a therapist point out to me that I don't accept help well and I don't ask for help.

I carry everything on my back from childhood trauma.

So she said,

Next time someone offers you help,

I suggest you go.

And I was invited to an entrepreneur event on a private island in Croatia with 200 e-commerce entrepreneurs and I was interviewed,

Accepted to go and it was 15 grand and I was like,

Ain't no way,

Can't happen,

Not gonna happen.

A very successful friend of mine called me and said,

If you were walking down the street and found 15k in an envelope,

Would you go to Croatia?

And I said yes and he said,

Okay great,

You're going,

This is not a loan,

Don't ever try to pay me back,

You have magic and these people need your magic.

I went to that island,

The keynote speaker on that island is my now fiancée and I was sitting in a chair watching her and she was teaching people how to take an e-commerce brand from zero to 25 million in three years because she's an absolute mogul,

Amazing goddess oracle.

Who is this woman with tribal tattoos?

What is happening here?

And yeah,

Now she's my fiancée.

You think you're going for a class to learn how to,

But you leave with a possible partner.

So when you were sitting there,

Did you think,

Oh my gosh,

Who is this human being?

I must know her.

Yes and I introduced myself to her very quickly but to be totally honest,

It wasn't like a,

I mean she's beautiful,

But it wasn't like a love at first sight.

I was like,

This is a fascinating entrepreneur,

Like what an impressive human.

Like she built this company from zero to nothing,

A nine-figure valuation with no capital.

I was like,

Who is this person?

So I met her immediately after her talk.

She was actually with her romantic partner at the time.

So it wasn't until almost two years later that we ended up dating and she was long out of that relationship and COVID had happened and all this stuff.

But it was not only that,

I mean my network,

My global network of my closest friends were all on that island and I started a business partnership on that island which is a company called Medchoice,

M-E-D-C-H-O-I-C-E.

You can look this up on Amazon.

We just launched a PCOS supplement and it's the most successful brand I've ever been a part of.

And I met my partner on that island and I mean it transformed my entire life from this therapist saying,

The next time someone offers you help,

Just as an experiment,

Just as a little bit of shadow work,

Just accept the help.

And this is where we are today.
