Chiseled Ep 102 -Cannonball Moments - Eric Clayton
<p>Eric A. Clayton is a born storyteller. Writing fiction as a child, his grandmother would edit Eric's fantastical stories about elves and dragons, teaching him the skills of imaginary world-building.<br>It is no wonder, then, that as an adult, Eric loves borrowing from the colorful St. Ignatius, who helped Eric find his spirituality as a writer, first for Catholic Relief Services and now as the deputy director of communications at the Jesuit Conference of Canada and the United States, here in Baltimore.<br>As Eric explains in this week's podcast, St. Ignatius of Loyola was a soldier and minor noble who "was all about winning wars and wooing women" until he was hit by a cannonball during the Battle of Pamplona. The ordeal led him to put down his sword, become a pilgrim, and found the Jesuit order of priests.<br>"We're talking about these trajectory-changing instances in our lives," he said. "And they can be pretty brutal, pretty tragic and traumatic."<br>Eric draws from the inspirational type of prayer that Ignatius taught the Jesuits to pursue — imaginative, contemplative, and most of all experiential.<br>"He's really big on getting out into the world," Eric said. "The Jesuits, founded in the mid 1500s, were different than other religious orders because they lived in the world. They didn't live in monasteries."<br>The story of St. Ignatius' self-discovery is where the phrase Cannonball Moments, the title of Eric's second book, comes from.<br>"It's kind of a flippant term that folks use in the wider Ignatian community," he said.<br>Aside from Cannonball Moments: Telling Your Story, Deepening Your Faith, Eric also has written My Life With the Jedi: The Spirituality of Star Wars. His third book, Finding Peace Here and Now: How Ignatian Spirituality Leads Us to Healing and Wholeness, is due out in 2025.<br>Meanwhile, he also writes the award-winning weekly column, "Now Discern This," and has a <a href="https://view.bbsv5.net/bbext/?p=link&id=e267e2e8-7c7e-3e88-b907-83fcd0fb5972&c=039ab750-5718-b4bb-af37-692b9dae1f48&cid=FBD6643485AB4C748400D2154DF8C967&dst=R2c0c2dEb09kM0w5UUdsSlVNZE4zY2pJY2Nsckppb2J6c3BlYWpNTkFaWXU%3D&eml=cm9iQHRhbGt0b3JvYi5jb20%3D" target="_blank">Substack channel</a> with some very entertaining headlines. It may be trite, Eric says, but for him writing is a form of prayer.<br>Eric is not only a gifted writer — and you can learn more about his work on his <a href="https://view.bbsv5.net/bbext/?p=link&id=1423baae-2961-2d1a-fe3b-2db49792fba2&c=039ab750-5718-b4bb-af37-692b9dae1f48&cid=FBD6643485AB4C748400D2154DF8C967&dst=R2c0c2dEb09kM0w5UUdsSlVNZE4zY2pJY1pCcU9qd055WVZlYm5CQg%3D%3D&eml=cm9iQHRhbGt0b3JvYi5jb20%3D" target="_blank">website</a> — but he is also an engaging conversationalist who will have you instantly tuned in when you listen to this week's episode of Chiseled. Enjoy.</p>

Chiseled Ep 101 - Invest in Yourself First - Carol Foderick
<p>It's funny. When I reflected on my conversation with Carol Foderick, this week's guest on Chiseled, I was amused that she is known as "the hardest working woman in realestate," yet she prioritizes her life outside the office.<br><br>And then it made sense to me. Working hard at a career is one thing, but creating work-life balance is a whole other level of effort. As you will learn this week, Carol is the epitome of discovering the balance between leadershipand friendship, mothering and managing, and reflection and action. <br><br>Carol started out in real estate working as a front deskreceptionist while finishing college. Now, her real estate group has 32 people and closes 354 transactions in a year. She has invested in recreational, rental, and multi-unit real estate, owns a renovation company and a staging company,and 90 percent of her business comes from repeat customers and direct referrals.<br><br>"It truly takes a community effort of a lot of like-minded individuals coming together," she said.<br><br>Carol is also one of the Buffini White Hats, which, if you regularly listen to this program, you know is part of the elite coaching group I have been connected to for 25 years. <br><br>"I always tell people the first check that I write of the year is to my Buffini coach and for my Buffini system because they have gotten me here. They are going to be the absolute last thing I abandon," she said.<br><br>That's a business decision. Personally, Carol is even more committed to her family. As a woman, it is a constant juggle to be successful in the workplace while also putting family first. But as she explains in a very poignant story, being the hardest working woman in real estate isn't going to make it on herepitaph.<br><br>"My tombstone is (not) going to say 'Ran a team of 32,'" she said.<br><br>Carol has a lot on her plate, and being a fast talker with an entrepreneurial mindset she gives listeners a lot to digest this week. I am sure you will gain many valuable insights from her. You can connect with Carol at her email address:<a href="https://referralmaker.buffiniandcompany.com/SendEmail?cGuid=d40cda23-19eb-41a3-9a28-36ae12f3533e&cName=Carol%20Foderick">carol@carolfoderick.com</a></p><p><br></p><p></p>

Chiseled Ep 100 - The Sound of Freedom - Paul Hutchinson
<p>It's our 100th episode of Chiseled and I'm so excited to have Paul Hutchinson join me for this milestone. You may have heard of Paul, the executive producer and inspiration for the movie, The Sound of Freedom. <br>Paul was living the high life building a multi-billion dollar company, Bridge Investment Group. He had a house with 10 bathrooms, seven fireplaces, three kitchens, and a closet larger than most people's apartments. A basketball court and a full-on DJ booth with light structures and a stage were set up in his basement.<br>He was also on his way to his second divorce, his kids wouldn't talk to him, and he had lost his relationship with God.<br>The parties every other weekend with NBA players and half-naked women kept him busy, but his soul wasn't fulfilled. However, his reputation as a flashy playboy with a disarming charm made him the kind of recruit that spy agencies look for.<br>Paul turned down the CIA's overtures, but when he got a call from the attorney general asking him to insinuate himself into a child trafficking ring, the challenge motivated him to action. <br>"I didn't want to put my life in danger for some white-collar crime guys in Dubai, but when it came to kids, if there was something I could do to help, great," he said.<br>Two days after a follow-up chat with a homeland security agent stationed in Cartagena, Paul was in Colombia making a deal to "purchase" young virgins.<br>"Then things became really real. I mean these guys knew who I was, and I realized the depth of darkness that they were engulfed in, and I realized how dangerous it really was, but I said to myself, 'If that was my child, if that 11-year-old was my daughter, I would take a bullet to get her out. I would give everything I have to destroy the lives of whoever tried to take her,'" he said.<br>The successful mission saving a group of children from a sex trafficker profoundly moved Paul. But it still hadn't quite renewed his soul. That would take another two years engaging in some mind-bending experiences with the operators who helped him save so many lives.<br>"I had what I call an 'ego death' and that ego death was absolutely necessary for 'Paul Effing Hutchinson' to go away," he said. "That's what brought me back to God."<br>Paul completed 70 missions in 15 countries during his 10 years undercover. He has earned the Ellis Island Medal of Honor and the International Medal of Freedom. He has been knighted three times, earned 12 honorary doctorate degrees, is the founder of Child Liberation Foundation, and personally donates millions of dollars to rescue children from enslavement.<br>As if his story needed any more drama, it has been brought to life on the big screen. The Sound of Freedom, starring Jim Caviezel and Eduardo Verástegui, who plays Paul's character is a must-watch. In fact, watching the film moved me to call Paul up and ask him to be my guest on this 100th episode of Chiseled. <br>I could not be more honored, he agreed. When you hear Paul's story, when you hear how bad human trafficking still is, particularly in the United States, you won't believe that Paul could remain as humble as he is. But as he says, "a piece of coal doesn't become a diamond if it's just sitting out there in the sun. It's gotta go through some pressure, it's gotta go through some heat."<br>You can learn more about Paul and the efforts to end human trafficking at <a href="https://view.bbsv5.net/bbext/?p=link&id=e2fd2451-dc6e-c19c-7a58-d6d9acb0d3af&c=039ab750-5718-b4bb-af37-692b9dae1f48&cid=437EFD1FE3C044C3AFD2C2B19F0E3032&dst=R2c0c2dEb09kM0wwVzJKUFFjcFl6ZExBTW85dFBpa0cwOTlFTDM0QkE5UT0%3D&eml=cm9iQHRhbGt0b3JvYi5jb20%3D" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Liberating- humanity.com</a>, <a href="https://view.bbsv5.net/bbext/?p=link&id=1dc4f440-be0e-b5f0-ff24-bdcc855f659b&c=039ab750-5718-b4bb-af37-692b9dae1f48&cid=437EFD1FE3C044C3AFD2C2B19F0E3032&dst=R2c0c2dEb09kM0w3V21sR1Y4ZEZ4dG5WZnBOeFBDWkcxZGxhTGc9PQ%3D%3D&eml=cm9iQHRhbGt0b3JvYi5jb20%3D" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">ChildLiberation.org</a>, and the <a href="https://view.bbsv5.net/bbext/?p=link&id=2ef311f9-7caf-e0ae-7856-204003dd1970&c=039ab750-5718-b4bb-af37-692b9dae1f48&cid=437EFD1FE3C044C3AFD2C2B19F0E3032&dst=R2c0c2dEb09kM0xMWFhWRVY4Uks0czdDZW9OM1Bpb0gxY0FUWW5JRA%3D%3D&eml=cm9iQHRhbGt0b3JvYi5jb20%3D" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">SoundofFreedombook.com</a>.
