    MARCUS TORGERSON “It’s OK To Stand Up For Yourself - Reclaiming Your Power Through Self-Defense”
    Sep 28 2024

    MARCUS TORGERSON - Warrior Shepherd, Author, Speaker

    I’m thrilled to share the incredible insights from our latest episode featuring the amazing Marcus Torgerson.
    If you’ve ever wondered how to overcome fear, build self-worth, and develop a mindset that deters potential attackers, this episode is a must-listen. 


    Marcus is a self-defense expert who empowers individuals affected by violence. 
He brings over 45 years of experience in martial arts and self-defense, and his wisdom is both practical and empowering.

    BUT - he advocates for practical self-defense techniques over traditional martial arts.

    The discussion covers societal conditioning, especially women's responses to threats, the psychological aspects of violence, and the responsibilities of carrying weapons for self-defense. Marcus underscores the necessity of training and preparation to handle real-life confrontations effectively, promoting a proactive approach to personal safety.

    Here are the key takeaways from our conversation:

    Overcoming Fear:
    Building Self-Worth:

    Practical Self-Defense: Marcus advocates for simple, replicable movements that anyone can learn, focusing on mindset and physicality rather than traditional martial arts.

    Societal Conditioning: We discuss how societal norms, especially for women, often discourage self-defense.

    Mindset Over Techniques:

    Responsibilities of Carrying Weapons: If you choose to carry a weapon, regular training and understanding the legal and emotional consequences are essential.

    Mother’s Instinct: Marcus uses the analogy of a mother protecting her child to illustrate the innate strength we all possess.

    Violence as a Tool: He explains that violence itself is neutral; it’s the intent behind it that matters. Good people can and should use violence to protect themselves and others when necessary.

    Domestic vs. Predatory Violence: Marcus distinguishes between different types of violence and stresses that domestic violence can affect anyone, regardless of gender.

    Marcus’s passion for helping others and his unique perspective on violence and self-worth will leave you feeling inspired and ready to take action.

    
Tune in to this powerful episode and discover how you can transform your mindset and take control of your safety and self-worth. Let’s empower ourselves and each other to face life’s challenges with confidence and resilience.
    Stay safe and stay strong!

  • ARIUS SORBONNE- Snakestaff Systems The Critical Role of Tourniquets for Safety and Preparedness

    ARIUS SORBONNE- Snakestaff Systems The Critical Role of Tourniquets for Safety and Preparedness
    Sep 22 2024
    In this episode I discuss the critical role of tourniquets in emergencies with my guest Arius Sorbonne, co-founder of Snake Staff Systems along with his amazing wife- Jessica. Arius explains the innovative design and functionality of their tourniquet, emphasizing its portability and effectiveness, especially for children. We stress the significance of emergency preparedness and advocate for carrying tourniquets as part of everyday safety gear to handle unexpected injuries. Key Features of the Snake Staff Systems' Tourniquet- as seen on the Shawn Ryan Show and featured with Dom Raso of Dynamis Alliance Compact Design: The tourniquet reduces the overall profile by about 65% by eliminating the sleeve found in traditional models, making it more portable and user-friendly. Suitable for both Children, Babies, Pets and Adults.. ( most aren’t) . One-Inch Webbing: The core component responsible for constricting blood flow is a one-inch piece of webbing, which has been effective in saving lives for years. Carabiner Lock: This feature enhances reliability during patient transport, addressing a common issue with other tourniquets that can become dislodged. Arius's Family Experience: Arius shared a personal story about a friend who had to apply a tourniquet to his child after a trampoline accident. This real-life example underscores the necessity of having such equipment on hand. Practical Skills for Kids: We touched on the importance of teaching first aid skills to children. Familiarity with medical supplies can empower kids to act confidently in emergencies. Everyday Carry (EDC): Many people are now including tourniquets in their EDC, which can be a game-changer in emergencies. Having essential medical supplies on hand can significantly increase survival chances. What First Aid do YOU EDC? Beyond his work with Snake Staff Systems, Arius collaborates closely with a range of specialized units, including Special Forces and SWAT teams. His expertise in tactical medical equipment and emergency response protocols makes him a valuable asset to these high-stakes environments. By working with these elite groups, Arius ensures that the tourniquets and other medical tools developed by Snake Staff Systems meet the rigorous demands of field operations. His partnerships with these units also provide critical feedback that drives continuous improvement and innovation in their products, ultimately enhancing the safety and effectiveness of first responders and military personnel. Additionally, Arius delves into the craftsmanship behind the custom firearms he manufactures, detailing the precision engineering and rigorous testing each gun undergoes to ensure reliability and safety. He shares insights into the various models they produce, tailored for different needs, from personal defense to professional use, and underscores the importance of responsible gun ownership and proper training. Arius notes that the messaging around self-defense and medical preparedness can often be polarizing, with some people dismissing the need for such knowledge. However, he believes that framing the conversation around safety and preparedness can help bridge the gap between differing viewpoints. By focusing on universal values like protecting loved ones, they can encourage more people to engage with the concepts of self-defense and emergency medical training. Final Thoughts: This episode is a powerful reminder of the importance of being prepared for emergencies. Arius and I shared a mutual understanding of the necessity of carrying reliable medical equipment and being proactive about personal safety. I encourage you to listen to the full episode and consider investing in a quality tourniquet for your safety and the safety of your loved ones.

  • Lindsey Graham Patriot Barbie “Turning Fear into Action for Personal Safety; A Scary Airport Encounter”

    Lindsey Graham Patriot Barbie “Turning Fear into Action for Personal Safety; A Scary Airport Encounter”
    Sep 9 2024
    Author, Public Speaker, Freedom-Fighting Mama Bear. Lindsey Graham moved the heart of the nation with her story. Her fight to protect her business, her family, and her freedom resonates clearly with conservatives, Republicans, and American women. Now firmly planted in the midst of the fight against cancel and woke culture, her voice ignites the spirit of patriots across the country in unified pursuit of unfettered freedom. BUT- this was not the initial reason we made plans to do the show!
Lindsey was involved in a harrowing experience at an airport, where she felt threatened by a suspicious man who followed her- likely for kidnapping and human trafficking. AND.. If you listen to the end she will tell you about the time she met President of the United States Donald Trump- and what it was like for her. This episode delves into the critical importance of situational awareness, trusting one's instincts, and the broader societal implications of women's safety in public spaces. Here, we break down the key takeaways from Lindsey's story, offering actionable advice and expert insights from her training at W.O.F.T ( Where Our Families Train) and my own insights from my Special Forces and Police Experiences and Training to help you stay safe and vigilant.
 
Lindsey's experience at the airport serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of situational awareness, trusting one's instincts, and the need for a supportive community. By sharing her story, Lindsey hopes to inspire others to prioritise their safety and advocate for a culture that values and protects women in all spaces. Here are the key takeaways: Trust Your Instincts: If something feels wrong, take action. The importance of situational awareness and trusting one's instincts, especially for women. Seek Help: Don't hesitate to ask for assistance from bystanders or authorities. Challenges women face in public spaces and the need for vigilance. Be an Active Bystander: Support others in distress and raise awareness about the importance of vigilance. Educate and Advocate: Promote education on situational awareness and advocate for cultural and societal changes that prioritise safety. By implementing these strategies and fostering a culture of awareness and support, we can create safer environments for everyone. Stay vigilant, trust your instincts, and take proactive steps to protect yourself and others. 
Lindsey is the Patriot Barbie – a loud, proud, pro-gun, pro-life, Jesus-loving, red-blooded conservative, Republican woman. She’s a Republican icon, a conservative activist, a faith-fuelled Christian, and a freedom-fighting mama bear. Her goal is to inspire and encourage fellow patriots to hold fast to their American values with unwavering resolution. The truth is, Lindsey Graham had no intention of being a public figure. All she said was, “No” and everything changed in an instant. When Lindsey said “No” to Oregon’s statewide COVID-19 lockdowns and opened the doors of her salon in defiance of government mandates, she became the voice of millions of Americans tired of ridiculous government overreach. Her hallmark courage sparked boldness in weary business owners across the country, inspiring them to follow suit. That spark ignited a blazing firebrand – The Patriot Barbie. Her agenda is America’s agenda, and she’s resolutely calling out the left’s woke lies. Currently, Lindsey is thriving in her role as a public speaker and advocate for personal freedoms and small business rights. She travels across the country sharing her story and insights, aiming to inspire others to stand up for their beliefs and take proactive steps in safeguarding their liberties. In addition to her speaking engagements,
