People Who

W elcome to the world of influential people. From social media, business, health/fitness to transfor-

mational leaders like self-help gurus, educators, authors, speakers, artists, coaches, trainers, and mentors.

All are heroes too often invisible heroes. All are visionaries coming forward to bring a message of hope and possibilities and developing a platform for creativity and excellence.

Our definition of an influential person is someone who chooses to impact those around them for the better, someone who encourages people to think beyond their own life so that they will aspire to inspire others. Influence is not enforced but gently led by personal example and. education. While big media would convince us that the world’s influencers are all on the ‘main’ stage we at Influential People Magazine disagree. Yes, we may read a book or see someone in a news report, but those people are too distant from our own sphere to make them relatable. We know, it is those in our communities who truly influence us, who teach us and inspire us, not by one deed but by how we see them live.

The team at Influential People believes passionately in spreading that message and understands the need to provide exposure for people on a local level. We work hard to provide a forum for coaches, mentors, authors, writers, trainers, speakers, business owners, entrepreneurs, photographers, event producers, health & wellness practitioners, teachers, icons, heroes. We consider these people to be leaders whose voice and a story has still to be told to the world. Influential People Magazine is known as a place for emerging Influencers. Will you be one or will you find your next mentor in our pages? Join us to find out.

Real Estate Has Cash Flowed Forever Creating an income by way of land ownership and property controlling has been common practice for centuries. Feudalism was a combination of legal and marital customs in medieval Europe that flourished between the 9th and 15th centuries. It was a system of structuring society around real estate relationships in terms of various use cases of land in exchange for labor and service roles. Sound familiar? Thought so!

The fundamentals have not changed overall and presently these structures are still in place. Renting out land and offering real estate is one of the oldest forms of entrepreneurship in practice! Back then, the aristocracy owned the vast majority of the territory. Everyday people in need of vacancies sought out Kings, Royals, and Lords and paid tenant income to take residence

and were tasked with maintenance of the Manor and given the responsibility of caretaker. Today, even though the wealthy own a lot of land and property, it is a different story, now any person can own land and property if they just have enough of a reason to do so!

Make Use of Other Income Sources If you think you cannot afford to purchase real estate, you simply need to find someone who can. This is when you use borrowed funds from private lenders to raise the return on investment. For instance, leveraging borrower funds to purchase real estate supply on margin. The borrower now can use these funds on credit and structure repayment terms and conditions bound to legal agreements.

Generally, the payment schedule is one of two structures. The first can be a fixed

preferred return in which the lender receives a flat interest rate before the borrower receives any profit. The fixed preferred return can be paid per annum (yearly), disbursed monthly. For example, if a lender charges the borrower 1% per month on any unpaid balance, the per annum rate is 12%.

Secondly, the borrower may extend the opportunity for the lender to take part in an equity split partnership where the lender and the borrower share cash flow that results in an income property after all expenses, mortgage pay down, and equity appreciation.

Either way, both parties can take advantage of real estate investments in this way and form a joint venture agreement.

This is when a “money partner,” and a “working partner,” work in tandem and invest in real estate operating under specific terms and conditions.

WWW.INFLUENTIALPEOPLEMAGAZINE.COM

Risk, Reward, and Return For the most part, unlike investing in stocks or securities, real estate investments can lower your risk-adjusted return.

The risk-adjusted rate of return is improved by calculating how much risk is involved in generating a return. This is represented by a numerical rating. The risk-adjusted rate of return is factored in after carrying out a risk assessment regarding your investment over a predetermined time horizon.

Correspondingly, when comparing the same risk categories with many other investment classes, statistically, real estate has a lower growth risk and a better risk-adjusted return or comparative performance.

Taking into account different real estate cycles, the act of simply holding on to real estate can create a higher return just by marketplace appreciation, without any danger of overall portfolio risk. Now that is a reason for the season!

Life, Liberty, and Property The famous philosopher John Locke wrote that “all individuals are equal in the sense that they are born with particular absolute natural rights. Among these fundamental rights, Locke said, are "life, liberty, and property."

Owning and managing land and property means you can add value to areas where it is needed most. Controlling real estate and forcing appreciation into your investments can cause gentrification. Gentrification is what happens when an area appreciates in value and undergoes urban renewal and community economic development.

The value of the real estate will always remain because shelter is a basic necessity! Many would say it is a human right. If you own or manage real estate, you can control your social environment and create economic freedom.

Learn from Other Leaders Each industry has nuances to discover, which you can only understand over time. Yet, you can avoid many mistakes new investors make in the field of real estate if you get training from experts who have “been there, done that.” The formal education system has a serious lack of representation when it comes to teaching about real estate investing.

Academia has fallen short in this way. In the real estate industry, the best way to learn is through apprenticeship training. Where a student learns from a skilled master. This is an accelerated learning program like no other. Just like most trades, this is how it has been done for a very long time.

Real estate property investments are physical assets and are quite tangible. Everyone needs a place to live, and quarters are always in high demand.

Seeking coaching and mentorship helps you identify and implement proven strategies that actually work in this industry. The knowledge you uncover from specialists can help you gain the essential skills you need to become a top-performing real estate businessperson. Today, there are many online courses taught by successful real estate entrepreneurs which are just one search away.

If someone does not have the down payment to purchase a home, they most likely will be able to come up with a damage deposit and rent.

Real estate has always been an invaluable commodity to all socioeconomic groups and for places of business.

Overall, you can get started in real estate, and these reasons and others lend a helping hand to begin building a real estate business. You can make reasons not to get involved in real estate or allow the right reasons to get you going and to start.

CORIE ADJMI AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR

Copyright by Corie Adjmi

Corie Adjmi, is a women’s empowerment advocate and bestselling author of ‘Life and Other Shortcomings’, touches on the impact that antisemitism, racism, and intolerance have had on her life and writings... making it difficult to paint a portrait of a flawed Jewish character in her work.

In this story Corie Adjmi illustrates how her recent, personal experience with racism, intolerance and antisemitism has impacted her work: “When I started writing fiction two decades ago, I didn’t worry about showing Jewish characters in a bad light.

Everyone has a shadow side and when it comes to writing, the dark angle is often what’s most fascinating. But recently, I’ve wondered if I should feel guilty sending my flawed, Jewish characters out into this world. Am I adding fuel to the fire?”

“This is a sensitive time and writers are feeling it as we grapple with how to write about our own, while simultaneously being discouraged from writing about marginalized groups outside our own gender, race, sexuality and religion…” says Corie.

Anti-Semitism is on the rise and family dinner conversations have turned into brainstorming sessions about where we should flee if things get worse. Israel? Spain? A remote Caribbean Island?

We wonder if we’re being dramatic or is it just plain stupid to ignore what’s happening. We consider applying for a second passport, getting dual citizenship. But keeping in mind all the places around the globe we’ve been persecuted throughout history, where in the world would Jews be safe?

And then January came… our capitol was attacked by a mob of domestic terrorists. They wore sweatshirts printed with the words, Camp Auschwitz and tee shirts that said, 6MWE, a NeoNazi term for “6 million wasn’t enough,” referring to the number of Jews murdered during the Holocaust.

Up until last summer, I’d never experienced anti-Semitism. I grew up in New Orleans, during a time of relative peace in the

world. I went to Sunday school and synagogue and felt a strong Jewish identity. Other than the fact that my mother wouldn’t allow us to get a Christmas tree, I didn’t attribute whatever differences there might’ve been between me and my classmates to religion, so when I was asked at 18 if I thought the Holocaust could ever happen again, I truly believed that was the most ignorant, if not paranoid, question I’d ever heard.

But more recently, I came face-to-face with bigotry on a crowded train heading from New York City to New Jersey.

An older couple stood in the aisle next to me and I offered them my seat. They thanked me but declined. As we traveled south, commuters got off the train and the seat next to mine opened up. The man scooted in next to me and his wife sat behind us. I turned to ask the woman if she’d like to switch places so she could sit next to her husband, and again, she declined my offer. After a few minutes, the man started talking to me, and as we chatted, I revealed that I was a writer coming from a workshop, that I’d been married for over thirty years, and that I had grandchildren. He’d also been married for decades, had grandchildren, and whipped out his phone to share pictures. We seemed to have some things in common.

I asked him a question about my train stop, as I’d never been on that route before.

I know, I know, I’m an idealist, and forever trusting that love is the answer. I’ve been called both Pollyanna and Tinkerbell.

Even though the man seemed unaware of his microaggressions, I like to believe that in the time we spent together on that train, I made a small dent and altered his thinking, even just a smidgeon.

When I started writing fiction two decades ago, I didn’t worry about showing Jewish characters in a bad light. Everyone has a shadow side and when it comes to writing, the dark angle is often what’s most fascinating. But recently, I’ve wondered if I should feel guilty sending my flawed, Jewish characters out into this world. Am I adding fuel to the fire?

This is a sensitive time and writers are feeling it as we grapple with how to write about our own, while simultaneously being discouraged from writing about marginalized groups outside our own gender, race, sexuality and religion.

Even though Jew hatred is surging, or maybe because Jew hatred is surging, I refuse to censor. Knowing a Jewish person is strongly linked with Jewish acceptance and Holocaust knowledge, and presently, 31% of Americans don’t believe that six million Jews were murdered in Europe. Two-thirds of U.S. millennials are not familiar with Auschwitz, the largest Nazi death camp. Some deny the Holocaust happened altogether.

It’s being x’ed from history, totally canceled.

“Isn’t that where all those Jews live?” he said.

Before I could respond, he was mouthing-off one Anti-Semitic trope after another. I will not share those details as they are upsetting and false and recounting them feels unnecessary.

Throughout my life, I’ve been told I don’t look Jewish and so maybe he thought he could say whatever he wanted. But I was stunned, and my expression gave me away.

“Are you Jewish?” he asked. “I am,” I said.

I hoped he’d be embarrassed. Or that he’d back down. But he wasn’t and he didn’t.

My first reaction was to get up and take a different seat, but something made me stay. His bias had awakened my Jewish spirit, and even though I knew this 70-year-old man would probably never change, I wanted to try. Maybe if he saw I was nice, hard-working, a writer, a mother, a volunteer—he’d reconsider his limited view.

Storytelling is a powerful tool that can break down barriers, teach, build bridges and foster empathy. I will continue to tell stories about Jewish characters showing their light and dark sides because let’s get real; we’re all flawed—every one of us— and all of our voices and all of our stories must be told.

The true story of Black Soldiers who fought in the Revolutionary war from the Boston Massacre to the Battle of Bunker Hill.

With all the civil unrest and turmoil going on in today’s America, it is the perfect time to look back and reflect on how African Americans are part of the foundation of this country. Robert Gatewood is a former NFL star, actor, writer, and producer of the upcoming film “Bucks of America”, which will be released July 2021. He has dedicated the past few years researching a lost part of America's history At a time when America’s fate was hanging in the balance, free and enslaved African Americans mobilized to

help the 13 colonies fight for their independence from the British. The British tried to entice these African American soldiers to fight for them with the promise of becoming free men, but they could not be swayed.

The Bucks of America was organized in Boston and little is known about their campaign. Most of the unit’s history is constructed from eyewitness accounts because few records survived. This Patriot Massachusetts Military Company was instrumental to the success at the battle of Lexington and Concord, Bunker Hill, and the Boston Massacre This human-interest story covers the amazing true accounts of the Bucks of America, as well as the story of influential people during America’s fight for independence.

As director and author of this film, Robert Gatewood integrates historical accuracy with Hollywood theatrics to create a masterpiece. Historians are helping with movie production to keep it accurate to detail and estimate an unbelievable 95% accuracy.

SPEAKER, MD, MBA, THE CO-FOUNDER, CHAIRWOMAN AND VP OF INNOVATION FOR TRADE PHARMA NETWORK

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW

44

WWW.INFLUENTIALPEOPLEMAGAZINE.COM

By Influential People Magazine International Journalist, Jules Lavallee

Jules: You are the Co-Founder, Chairwoman, and VP of Innovation for Trade Pharma Network, which is the fastgrowing network entirely dedicated to the life sciences & healthcare industry. Tell us about the importance of emerging technologies in reshaping life sciences and the healthcare industry.

Ingrid: We are witnessing an unprecedented time in history with the rapid pace of emerging technologies adoption and the exponential rate of scientific discoveries that have the potential to reshape life sciences and the healthcare industry. Examples include artificial intelligence, blockchain, nanotechnology, 3D printing which can all change the paradigm in the way we recognize, diagnose, treat and prevent disease. Furthermore, these technologies can greatly contribute to the design of a new era in medicine focused on ultra-personalized care with a focus on wellness, longevity and preventing disease. Solutions like bio-implants, bionic eyes or limbs, exoskeletons, wearables, brain-computer interfaces that were once considered futuristic are now making the transition from the research lab to clinical deployments and will soon become standard of care.

Jules: What are your initiatives for the next 6-months?

Ingrid: I am looking forward to leading and participating in several initiatives over the next few months. They all revolve around adoption of emerging technologies, digital ethics, digital identity, digital economy, and social entrepreneurship. A few are particularly noteworthy due to their large-scale and global impact: a convener focused on the impact sciences can have on global entrepreneurship ecosystems, another one that is aiming to highlight the importance of impact investing and a major effort to launch a world smart city’s economic development commission. I am also looking forward to speaking at a few events that are centered on digital and business strategy, telehealth adoption, digital innovation, precision medicine, hybrid intelligence in education, and investments. Additionally, I have been invited to be a contributor to the Rick Amato National Talk Show and to participate in Season 2 of The Social Movement reality TV show created by executive producer Christopher Lavoie. The show will air in 31 countries and audiences will have the opportunity to witness how we aim to save the world in 4 days by addressing major social issues.

Jules: Tell us about your work with the UN Legal and Eco-

nomic Empowerment Network.

Ingrid: I have the privilege to be part of an amazing network of professionals and academics who are highly dedicated to foster legal innovation and empowerment of the disadvantaged populations. We have several initiatives planned for the year that all aim to tighten awareness and urge call to action for key stakeholders globally.

Jules: What are the achievements of the organization in the post-pandemic era to accelerate Sustainable Development Goals and the role digital identity can play to facilitate all of the SDG 17?

Ingrid: The pandemic crisis has caused major setbacks in the progress we had achieved in many areas of the world.

We now aim to increase awareness, accelerate the pace of recovery, infuse a sense of renewed urgency, and offer solutions to key decision-makers that can facilitate attainment of all SDGs. Digital identity is considered one of the solutions that can address numerous global challenges.

Jules: Tell us about the World Business Angels Investment Forum and why this organization is the key to building partnerships and investment globally?

Ingrid: The World Business Angel Investment Forum is a global organization that aims to bring together key players of the equity markets and focuses on developing innovative financial instruments for entrepreneurs and SMEs. We believe that by sharing a common vision and working together across borders, we can promote positive change in the global economy. I have the opportunity to serve in multiple roles such as Country Director for WBAF USA, Secretary-General for the Global Science, Technology and Innovation Committee, the WBAF Research Institute, and am the Co-founder of the WBAF World Smart Cities Economic Development Commission. These roles are allowing me to contribute to empowering the global entrepreneurial ecosystem and accelerate the post-pandemic economic recovery process. As an affiliated partner of the G20 Global Platform for Financial Inclusion the WBAF is committed to ease access to finance, promote financial inclusion, create more jobs and advocate for social justice.

Jules: You recently won the World Excellence Award for Social Entrepreneurship. What did this mean to you?

Ingrid: I was genuinely surprised, honored, and humbled by this special award. Social entrepreneurship is near and WWW.INFLUENTIALPEOPLEMAGAZINE.COM

all my not-for-profit initiatives. Social innovation will play an increasing role in our society and social corporate responsibility, impact investing and focus on democratizing entrepreneurship are identified as key digital era trends.

Jules: You have been the Chief Ethics Officer since 2020 for the Government Blockchain Association recently appointed as Ethics &Innovation Officer.

What is your vision for 2021?

Ingrid: Blockchain is one of the emerging technologies that have the potential to be one of the most profound transformative powers in our society and one of the key drivers for empowering a global digital economy. My vision is to encourage mindful and ethical adoption of blockchain solutions, as well as to deploy innovative blockchain powered solutions at a larger scale.

Jules: Tell us about your new books, “Applied Ethics in A Digital World” and Digital Identity in the Era of Personalized Medicine.

Ingrid: I am fortunate to work with an excellent international academic publisher IGI Global and to have two outstanding co-editors. The books will be released later this year and available both as hardcovers and e-books. The impetus for both books was a realization that the advances in disruptive technologies are often not complemented by mindful ethical deployment and that ethical leadership in this era will be crucial to protect human rights.

We are observing an even larger divide between the pace of technological adoption and the much slower effort to revise policies, frameworks, education, life sciences and healthcare delivery systems globally. One book aims to explore how establishing a global ethical governance system can address 46

some of these challenges and the other one how digital identity can be a conduit for the new era of personalized medicine.

Jules: Share your recent experience in the global initiatives supporting women in business & trade: Womenomics and WECombinator.

Ingrid: The Global Council For the Promotion of International Trade has numerous initiatives that revolve around enabling collaboration, mentorship, peer-based learning, and sharing innovative ideas with entrepreneurs across the globe. I was invited to participate and have been an avid supporter of Womenomics in Action which aimed to create a Global Taskforce supporting women in business, as well as their WeCombinator efforts honoring women entrepreneurs.

Jules: How important is philanthropy to you?

Ingrid: Philanthropy has always played a vital role in my life and remains a major contributor to my Ikigai. Over the past 30 years I have continuously volunteered for numerous not for profit organizations most notably The Swiss Red Cross, NPH USA, Big Brothers Big Sister, Boys and Girls Club, Women in AI, Inspired Minds, Blockchain in Healthcare Today, Telehealth and Medicine Today, Government blockchain Association and the World Business Angel Investment Forum.

Over the past year, I have had the opportunity to showcase the important philanthropic work we are doing in these organizations and have been humbled to receive several awards:

Ingrid: As a few of my recent published articles indicate, I do believe we are at the cusp of entering the 5th industrial revolution which will deeply transform the way we live and work, as well as create a new digitally driven culture. The same way we witnessed the internet reshape our society and economy, we will now have the opportunity to observe how 5G, IoT, next generation computing, web 3.0, and the metaverse become key players in this new digital era. It is a moral imperative to ensure that we uphold ethical values, respect human rights and apply design thinking for a human-centered approach. I also hope that we can continue increasing awareness and engagement to accelerate attainment of the UN SDG 2030 goals.

Jules: You are actively engaged in growing the Miami entrepreneurship ecosystem by forging strategic partnerships. Can you share a few key ones?

John: We are leveraging strategic relationships with several other international not-for-profits organizations that promote digital literacy, digital fluency, and ethical deployment of emerging technologies. We have been able to host a variety of events that were geared towards elevating the entre-

preneurship ecosystem in Miami. This past year we have focused on blockchain, AI, and digital transformation which all play an important role in the post-pandemic economic recovery process.

Jules: As we move into 2021, why is working with you and your team at Institute SEI important for sustainability?

John: We are noticing a recovery of investments which can greatly contribute to the post-pandemic recovery and an upward trend in impact investments, however, it is imperative to ensure long term sustainability and track the outcome of these investments. We aim to increase awareness regarding the Davos 2021 agenda, develop novel metrics that are custom designed for each of the SDGs targets and to act as a liaison for key stakeholders that can influence the regulatory landscape required for long-term success.

CO-AUTHOR BY VALEN VERGARA BEYOND “WHAT IF?”

Real Stories of How Purpose Turns Dreams Into Reality

Written by a collaboration of Napoleon Hill Foundation Certified Instructors and Students, each co-author adds their anecdote to the collective wisdom underlying Dr. Napoleon Hill’s 17-principle personal success philosophy.

Dr. Hill developed the philosophy under the direction of American philanthropist and steel tycoon Andrew Carnegie. It was organized over a period of twenty years in which Hill spent conducting interviews and gathering research on what made achievers out of some 500+ of the most successful men of the early 1900’s. Likewise, he studied the non-achievers and came to understand that commonalities existed in the conduct, process, and methods used for both failure and success. He performed his work without compensation; a demonstration of persistence and self-discipline which are part of his documented science of achievement. Indeed, he utilized all aspects of his own philosophy throughout its very creation. The findings and workings of the success formula are time tested and still relevant today. It is unquantifiable how many millions of lives have been touched by Hill achieving his life’s Purpose and how many more to come will attribute their success to the principles and Hill’s most famous work – one of the best-selling books of all time - Think and Grow Rich. One need only be aware of the millions of his books continuing to be sold worldwide in multiple languages to gain a grandiose impression of how widespread the use of this philosophy is. Napoleon Hill lived from 1883 – 1970 and in addition to writing, spent his lifetime teaching, lecturing and leading by example through his motivational style influence. His outstanding achievements are the basis for most current leadership books and his literature has become the benchmark against which all other like-minded material is compared.

Although Beyond What If mentions many of the other principles (because they all work synergistically), its general focus is on the principle of Definite Major Purpose (DMP) Definiteness of Purpose, or DMP, is one’s chief aim in life and the starting point of all achievement. It represents the single most prominent desire that you aspire to achieve, the fruits of which you are willing to leave as a monument to yourself or in other words, your legacy.

Although we may have many minor purposes, Hill teaches that without an overall lifelong purpose, one is wasting the better portion of their life. Everyone wants the better things in life but most people never go beyond wishing for them. Dr. Hill challenges us to understand the crucial difference between a wish and having a burning desire to achieve something. With a burning desire to pursue and achieve your life’s goal, he believes you will be born again mentally, physically, and spiritually and gain the realization of your individual power and dignity as a unit of mankind.

The Napoleon Hill Foundation was established in 1962 as a non-profit corporation whose sole purpose is to perpetuate his philosophy of individual achievement through Hill’s published and yet unpublished manuscripts, recordings, and courses. It is a highly skilled and knowledgeable educational institution. The Foundation conducts itself in a manner that would obtain Dr. Hill’s approval and well

https://amzn.to/3fuvWcu exceed his expectations. It is managed and operated with Dr. Hill’s best interests at heart and with the same intention, honor and respect, integrity and tenacity that he himself would have used.

The mind is a fascinating landscape of relatively unexplored territory. More and more, the field of science is able to validate what Dr. Hill has known and shared with his audience for decades: What the Mind can Conceive and Believe, it can Achieve. The motivational stories in Beyond What If will inspire you to go beyond your self-imposed limitations and deflating beliefs to discover your Purpose and turn your dreams into reality.

HR BUSINESS PARTNER, BLOGGER, CONSULTANT/ RECRUITER,

A new year is approaching, and this may cause you to reflect on your management style. Maybe other people perceive you in a way that you’d like to change. But how do you do that in a world where we implicitly understand management as being powerful, capable of making decisions (quickly), and knowing everything?

if people dared to share their mistakes. Or you can try to influence your management team so that they’ll find it natural to also share, e.g., projects that went wrong.

Also, bear in mind that you may be part of a company where vulnerability will never fit into the culture, no matter how much you try to change that. Consequently, you’ll need to consider whether you’re in the right company, or if it would be better to find a company that better matches your personality.

Pitfalls in vulnerability management According to Graff, it’s important to set a boundary for vulnerability. If you’re 100% honest and convey a sense of “Here I come, take me as I am,” you’ll be making a mistake, as

your job as a leader is to take care of the community. It’s not your role to be in the center, as others will find it intolerable to be around you. It’s a good idea to think about how you act in the group.

The same goes for sharing your private life. You may think that your reports should see

you as a whole person, meaning that you share information about your divorce or other private matters that are eating at you. But maybe your reports aren’t able or ready to handle your honesty or they feel obliged to ask every now and then about how you are coping to feel like good employees. It’s okay to share that, for example, you suffer from a serious illness while simultaneously saying that you’ll tell them when you have news about it and that you’d prefer to keep your everyday working life focused on your duties.

Otherwise, you might find the situation unbearable.

Possible payoffs There are advantages in expressing more vulnerability. If you have the courage to ask more questions instead of giving more answers, you’ll encourage your employees to use their innovative force and find better solutions.

Or, if you dare to share errors and failures or focus on what you take away from them instead of hiding them, you may end up creating a culture in which you try new ways of doing things and make more changes.

If you end up being more productive and having a better working environment, that’s not so bad, is it?

Last but not least, Graff encourages you to engage in a larger degree of nuanced thinking.

For instance, we’re used to defining “courage” as making (quick) decisions, acting, showing vigor, and taking the floor. However, we need to redefine courage and strength as

daring to be vulnerable, saying that you don’t have an answer to everything, and bringing forward mistakes and poor quality. If we make this redefinition, we—and others—might more easily show our vulnerability.

MEDIA SECRETS REVEALED If you could learn how to access and successfully land a media gig that would propel you and your business to its next level, would you honestly read it and implement its contents?

Sound like a crazy question?

Unfortunately, it is the reality that exists today. Many entrepreneurs and maybe even you have struck out at landing that coveted media spot. Perhaps there has been some success in the past but currently that sweet spot is gone.

In this easy to consume book, Lori takes the reader through a simple, yet hugely effective five-step strategy that will not only get your pitch to be read but will help land you in the spotlight that you’ve been searching for. Lori’s strategy has helped her achieve a 100% acceptance rate for every pitch she’s submitted following these steps.

What makes her process so effective? It’s grounded in simplicity. According to author Lori McNeil, what is holding you back from getting that Yes is rooted in how you start and how you finish. Focusing on the pre-planning, the pitch, and the post-planning (how you follow up) processes allows the preparation to flow smoothly, which results in giving a solid performance that captivates not just your ideal clients but more importantly it captivates the media world too.

DR ADAM J. RUBINSTEIN M.D., F.A.C.S PLASTIC SURGEON EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW

By Jules Lavallee

Dr. Adam J. Rubinstein is a Board Certified and Award-Winning Plastic Surgeon. He has served as the Chief of Plastic Surgery and Chief of the Department of Surgery for Jackson North Medical Center in Miami; FL. Dr. Rubinstein specializes in whole body surgical & non-surgical cosmetic treatments for both women and men. Dr. Rubinstein is also a patient advocate and is passionate about sharing the good, the bad, and the ugly about common plastic surgery practices to help patients navigate the world of plastic surgery effectively and safely.

With the pandemic still looming large, it is understandable that people are seeking a fast and easy way to look and feel their best. Dr.Rubinstein launched the “# ItsNotAllTheSame” Series on his Instagram accounts @drrubinstein and @plasticsurgerytruths to discuss controversial topics in plastic surgery in a humorous yet truthful way to educate people on how to make informed decisions. The popular series is designed to make the point, with humor, that all plastic surgery is most definitely not the same. Through the series, Dr. Adam Rubinstein reminds patients to seek the appropriate doctors who are board-certified and properly trained to ensure great results and safety.

tice for 18-years. My practice specializes in cosmetic surgery of the face, breast, and body. Over the years, I have seen patients who have suffered after making questionable choices and helped them improve their results. Often, these people had no idea where to look

or even what to look for when choosing a plastic surgeon and a procedure. Very early in my career, I decided to do my best to shine a light on questionable procedures, practices, and even other doctors who might not be sharing the whole truth with the public. I work hard to answer questions from patients, post truthful and informative content, and help people make their best choices.

Jules: Tell us about your popular series # “ItsNotAllTheSame” on Instagram. Why did you decide to launch it?

Dr. Adam J. Rubinstein: In Miami, we see a lot of things in the cosmetic surgery world that raises eyebrows. Despite lots of stories on local and national news, shady doctors and clinics still seem to stay

busy. I get why people look for a good price, but this isn’t a new pair of shoes or a nice car - this is your health and could be life and death. Nobody goes bargain shopping if they need a cardiac bypass, but somehow plastic surgery is viewed differently. I started the #itsnotallthesame campaign to raise awareness that cosmetic surgery is still surgery. I hope the videos I post help people understand better how important it is to choose to have cosmetic surgery seriously. Not all clinics are the same. Not all procedures are the same.

Not all doctors are the same. #itsnotallthesame

pretty ridiculous, to begin with so getting funny material was easy.

For example, there was a doctor that was doing drive-thru Botox during the height of the pandemic. That’s a really bad idea. And it’s a ridiculous concept when you think about having a doctor leaning into your car window to inject your face. But a doctor was offering it, and people came to have it done. It was like a sitcom episode in real life. I didn’t have to go far to show how ridiculous that was.

Jules: Can you tell us about the newest technologies?

Dr. Adam J. Rubinstein: There are always new procedures and new technology coming out. Some of the newest and most exciting innovations are dealing with muscle growth and fat reduction as well as neck rejuvenation and skin tightening. There’s a new technology that uses electromagnetic energy to stimulate muscles like the pecs and butt and make them grow about 20% in size. At the same time

If someone is considering cosmetic procedures they should make sure they are seeing a true specialist. Board-certified plastic surgeons are specially trained for many years, have to demonstrate their knowledge on a long and difficult written exam, collect data from patients they treat over many months, and then pass a rigorous oral exam including answering questions about many unknown simulation cases as well as a half dozen cases of their own that have been scrutinized by a panel of experts. Plastic surgeons who are certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery have completed that very difficult process and have demonstrated a level of knowledge, skill, and ethics that allow them to be certified.

DOES INFLUENCE WORK BEST TO BUILD YOUR BUSINESS?

Have you ever truly assessed why you do what you do in business? Do your business and audience align with your core values and beliefs?

disciplines that allow you to become the example of the core values and beliefs you represent in your business offerings.

Clarity from within allows you to be clear on the value statement in business upfront and to determine if it aligns with your business plan and most important your niche audience. Being clear leads to be decisive and then taking massive action. This operates from a growth mindset of limitless beliefs rather than

While there are people who truly know this about themselves, there are many that do not and go through the motions looking for shortcuts to generate revenue. Many do not consider their core values and beliefs as they are not clear due to limited beliefs or coming from a fixed mindset. They often rely on the latest marketing schemes to sell their products and services. Ask yourself honestly if this is a sustainable model to grow and sustain your business long term.

PLASTIC SURGEON, EDUCATOR, AUTHOR, SPEAKER

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW

By Jules Lavallee Dr. John Mesa is a Harvard-trained, triple

fellowship-trained plastic surgeon who is known for his extraordinary surgical techniques and stunning results. His specialty is cosmetic plastic surgery for the face, neck, breasts, and body. He is known for delivering premier, individualized care and for achieving consistently beautiful, natural-looking results. His strong credentials have given him a unique set of skills for cosmetic plastic surgery. Born and raised in Colombia, he brings the warmth

to treat anybody, including patients, with warmth, cordiality, and respect. My philosophy is that I take care of my patients the same way I would care for a family member. Therefore, they only get the best care they can give them. This is something essential because it allows the patients to be confident with me, choose the procedures that best fit their needs, which helps me to make them look and feel their best, which ultimately helps to boost their confidence to achieve their personal, social, and professional goals.

Jules: Share your strengths as a Cosmetic Plastic Surgeon.

Dr. John Mesa: I pride myself on honesty and doing the best work possible. Most patients love the fact I do most neck-up procedures with local anesthesia versus general anesthesia, which is safer and easier to recover. Patients love my sincerity, professionalism, bedside manners, and attractive natural results of my procedures.

and care of the Latin culture to his practice, and he is known for providing personalized care in custom plastic surgery. He is dedicated to ensuring his patients look and feel their best, and with newfound confidence, are better able to achieve their personal, social, and professional goals. Dr. John Mesa has offices in New York (Manhattan) and New Jersey.

Jules: Tell us about your background and training.

Dr. John Mesa: I am a board-certified plastic surgeon specializing in cosmetic plastic surgery of the face, neck, and breasts. I obtained my M.D. degree in Colombia, South America. I came to the U.S. to undergo my surgical training at multiple institutions like Harvard.

Post-residency, I am fellowship-trained to subspecialize in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery of the face and neck at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and the University of Michigan, respectively. I currently practice at three offices: One in Manhattan (New York City) on Park Ave and 79th street. One in Livingston, New Jersey, and the third one in Miami.

Jules: Your Latin Culture is very important to you. How are you bringing the warmth of the Latin Culture to your practice?

Dr. John Mesa: Since I was born and raised in Colombia, it is innate

Jules: You specialize in Buccal Fat Removal – what is that, how is it done, and for whom and why is this procedure very popular?

Dr. John Mesa: Buccal fat removal is the most common cosmetic plastic surgery I perform. It is a procedure that permanently corrects the chubbiness of the face, thus allowing them to achieve a more sculpted and chiseled facial look, which translates into achieving a celebrity-like and or high fashion-like face look. I routinely perform the procedure under local anesthesia without any sedation. The surgery is painless and takes about 45 minutes to be done. Patients have stitches inside the mouth that last for a couple of weeks to dissolve. The recovery is mainly associated with some swelling that lasts a couple of days. The results start showing in 3 weeks, and the final results are seen in 3 months post-procedure.

The buccal fat removal procedure became very popular because people discovered a surgical option to achieve a chiseled facial look like celebrities or models. In the past, buccal fat removal was one of the most kept "secrets" in Hollywood. However, now with the widespread internet access on smartphones and social media, this procedure started to spread to the point that now is one of the most popular procedures in cosmetic plastic surgery of the face.

Jules: What is the protocol for your office – for example, consultation, surgery, recovery, and time frame?

Dr. John Mesa: My office protocol is simple: when a potential patient is interested in a cosmetic procedure with me, they usually

WWW.INFLUENTIALPEOPLEMAGAZINE.COM

73

reach one of my offices via phone call, email, or social media message. Then, one of my patient coordinators contacts the patient back via phone call. During the telephone call, they go over the general aspects of the surgery or procedure, the consultation process, surgery time frames, downtime, and price estimates.

Then, the patient proceeds with either an in-person or virtual consultation, where I discuss the physical exam findings and all the details of the procedures/surgeries that best fit the patient's needs. Then the patient schedules his/her procedure on a date and time available according to their schedule. Follow-ups are designed according to their procedure. The last follow-up is usually 12 weeks after surgery.

Jules: Cosmetic plastic surgery has as much to do with the outside as on the inside. Tell us about being a “Surgical Psychiatrist.”

Dr. John Mesa: Yes, cosmetic plastic surgery has much to do with the outside as on the inside. That's why I consider plastic surgery as "surgical psychiatry": By addressing a patient's external physical concerns with cosmetic surgery, we plastic surgeons help patients to improve or boost their self-esteem ("internal appearance") and self-confidence.

Jules: Beyond Buccal you also specialize in the minimally invasive neck up procedures – what procedures are most popular and how is it that you can perform them with local anesthesia versus general and how is that an important factor?

Dr. John Mesa: With the pandemic and the widespread video call for work and personal matters, people are starting to notice the existence of areas of their face and neck that make them feel uncomfortable like their double chins. Therefore, people have become more self-conscious of their facial appearance on camera and are thus taking action.

After buccal fat removal, the most common procedures from the neck up are chin liposuction in second place and skin tightening with radiofrequency of the neck (NeckTite) and face (FaceTite) being in the third and fourth place of most common procedures.

One of my passions is to perform surgical procedures from the neck up with pure local anesthesia without any pain. Even though most plastic surgeons are trained to perform plastic surgery under general anesthesia, I choose to perform most of my procedures under local anesthesia due to multiple reasons. Some of the reasons are avoidance of general anesthesia risks, faster recovery, ability to undergo surgery without the need for a chaperone (except in specific procedures like eyelid surgery), among others. Also, performing cosmetic plastic surgery under local anesthesia with the patient wide awake is extremely fun for me: The fact that I can talk with my patients when I am doing surgery with them is pretty rewarding.

Jules: How has COVID-19 impacted the world of Plastic Surgery in your opinion?

Dr. John Mesa: The world of Plastic Surgery has benefited tremendously due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As I expressed before because people nowadays can recover at home while working, many people now can undergo the cosmetic procedures they

74

WWW.INFLUENTIALPEOPLEMAGAZINE.COM

dreamed about, but that could not be achieved in the past due to the limiting factor of having to take several days off from work to recover at home.

Jules: Are you seeing more or fewer procedures now and throughout the pandemic?

Dr. John Mesa: I have seen a tremendous increase in cosmetic surgery procedures and decreased cosmetic injections (like Botox and Fillers). Before the pandemic, getting time off from work to undergo elective cosmetic surgery, in my opinion, was the number one limiting factor for most patients. Nowadays, since most people now work from home, they request a single day off to undergo a cosmetic procedure. Then, they recover from their surgery while working at home.

Jules: What are the important aspects when choosing a plastic surgeon?

Dr. John Mesa: Choosing a plastic surgeon depends on multiple factors. Some of the elements are location, timing, price, surgeon's training and experience, surgeons' bedside manners, and office facility and staff. Patients should evaluate these factors and choose a plastic surgeon that best meets their overall needs.

3 Key Components of Finding Clarity So how do you invite deep clarity into your life? How do you lead from

this empowered, enlightened space? For me, there are three key components to inviting divine clarity into your life:

1

Environment

Your environment is the foundation of your results.

If you want to operate from a place of clarity, first you must design an environment that allows you to focus, connect inward and find your inner voice.

reinforcing it in your mind, heart, and soul. You have space where you can now return to that wisdom, whenever you need it.

Additionally, the process of journaling can help you access clarity when it feels most far away or most stubborn. For me, journaling has always contained this magical connection between the mind and the soul. It brings to light the things we cannot speak, and it solidifies the things we discover along the way.

Journaling allows our bodies and minds to move forward in a way that’s completely aligned with our purpose and vision for the future. It’s so powerful.

Start by examining the quality of the environments you surround your-

hoped for? First sort out your environments, even if it means making big changes.

A shift in your environment not only sets you up for success in finding clarity but also protects you from getting distracted and off track.

access them, you need to connect with that deep, all-knowing part of

you.

For me, I take time to ask myself powerful, revealing questions. I don’t shy away from the tough stuff. I ask myself the hard questions – in the gentlest way. I might ask: What is it I’m missing that will help me see things more clearly?

What is it that I don’t know but I need to know?

What is it that I know but I’m not willing to see?

You can also ask yourself director questions about the situation you need clarity on. Ask yourself the way you would ask a trusted friend.

In fact, I believe in it so much that we’ll walk you through this formula for a $1 trial.

come. Listen and feel the truth as it arrives in your body.

I also turn to prayer quite often. I ask God to guide me. Then I listen to my soul to hear the response. Faith may or may not be one of your values. Your God may look different than my God. But whenever I need that extra push toward clarity, I find that prayer is the differencemaker.

3. Journaling Not only is journaling a powerful practice for finding clarity when it’s being fickle, but it also helps solidify the wisdom once clarity arrives.

She has shared the stage with Mitch Carson, Bill Walsh, James Dentley, Kevin Harrington, Joel Bauer, Forbes Riley and several other notable speakers. She is the author of “Lessons From Neverland” and is regularly sought out as a business consultant and mentor to several small businesses.

What is BioHacking?

Biohackers are individuals who believe in experience-based knowledge. Their mindset is, “Show me the research and then let me try it for myself.”

B

Iohacking is taking full control of your biology. If you’ve pursued ways to improve your health, that’s biohacking. But, it’s more than just putting butter in your coffee

every morning or taking a daily vitamin. Biohacking is the desire to understand the body and mind you’ve been given and using everything at your disposal — cutting-edge technology, tools, and science — to become the best version of yourself.

Why Biohacking?

Biohacking is more than just reading mindless self-improvement tips. It is understanding the why behind how you’re feeling, thinking, and performing. Knowing the “why” empowers you to not only biohack your body, but to make impactful changes to your overall health and well-being. At LifeVantage, we live for finding the “why” through relentless research, experimentation, and technology.

Biohackers are individuals who believe in experience-based knowledge.

Their mindset is, “Show me the research and then let me try it for myself.”

Learn to pay attention to how you’re feeling. There is always something tangible that’s affecting your daily ability to be awesome. Instead of simply question those setbacks. With the “biohacker mindset,” you’re not eschewing traditional medi-

cine, you’re just figuring out what works best for you. You’re actively seeking out a healthier lifestyle. And for that, your future self will thank you.

With all this in mind, the real question you should be asking is…why not biohack?
