Noah's Personal Journey and Evolution
Speaker 1Hi Noah , Welcome to the Quantum Alchemist Mastered Podcast . I'm so happy that you're here today .
Speaker 2Oh , I'm so happy to be here . Thanks for having me , Rosalia .
Speaker 1Well , guys , just to give you a little backstory and Noah will get into his own journey . But Noah actually supports and has a lot to do with the podcast being on air , continuing to function , getting in wonderful guests and also booking me to be a guest on other podcasts and just a whole lot more that he does that he doesn't even have to , but he's that extra . I consider him to be a very good friend and a part of the family . I love that you're here . I don't know why we took this long to do this , but that's okay , divine timing . Noah , tell me a little bit about your own personal journey , not just what you do for work , but your journey , anything that comes up for you .
Speaker 2Yeah , I was born and raised in Green Bay , wisconsin , and I had a wonderful childhood . It was very much a picturesque , middle-class American childhood . My dad's a small business owner . He runs a real estate company . My mom was a homemaker . She was a stay-at-home mom and I was homeschooled , actually , and for me homeschooling was wonderful .
Speaker 2I think homeschooling works well for some people and it worked wonders for me because I've always just been a self-starter and I've always had such an interest in things . So homeschooling allowed me to focus on my interests at an early age and I was raised in a very evangelical Christian home and the one thing that I'm very grateful for in that is I up , I grew up at the church that my family attended . There was always some church event every evening , every weekend , it seemed . So I'm very grateful for having that experience and I was just kind of the nerdy , funny , geeky kid growing up . I didn't have deep friendships , despite being surrounded by community . So in that respect I did experience loneliness from a young age . I struggled with my appearance . I've always struggled with my appearance . When I was growing up I was struggled with weight , I you know . Especially when I got into the teenage years I had some skin issues , and it was really hard for me during my sort of coming of age to find an identity really . I mean , I never did sports growing up when all the other young men my age were doing that . But one thing I did do was community theater , and that was like a silver bullet . I loved community theater . It gave me a way to express myself and theater is so beautiful because you take a cast of 30 people from every age , every background and you bring them together and they create magic and you create something that people love . So that was my kind of first foray into performance or doing anything really .
Speaker 2And you know , I was 16 years old and I was shadowing with my dad because I thought I would go into real estate with him and we would listen to podcasts during our drives together . And he said , noah , why don't you start a podcast ? So he bought me the equipment for Christmas one year and it actually sat in my closet for two years before I did anything with it . So I started my first show about Vikings because I've always loved history . That's been like my thing is history . I'm a huge history buff .
Speaker 2So I started a show at 16 called the History of Vikings my first guest I just cold emailed was a professor of medieval literature at Oxford University and within five months the show was getting 50,000 downloads a month . I traveled to Europe because of the podcast . I was flown out as media . I was flown out to Toronto to do an interview on a history channel show . I wrote a book about Viking battle tactics for a big military history publisher and from that , well I should say and that was like the first time in my life that I finally felt like I had something that was mine and then from that I started helping other people realize their dreams and find their voice through podcasting , and that's a lot of what I do today . So that's just a little background .
Speaker 1Let's let's peel back on the onion a little bit , because I didn't know a lot of this stuff , so this is so cool to know that about you . Thank you for sharing and for getting personal . That's really what . What I love to have on the show like ask questions that normally you know we don't go into in other podcasts just very kind of on the personal side . So when was the last time you did theater that you feel so passionate about ?
Speaker 2Oh , it's probably been a good three years now .
Speaker 1Yeah , I love throwing out these little things out there . Because I say this ? Because it happened to me with art . It came into my life . I can't even paint a head with a stick Like that's how bad , I am right , but it came into my life a couple years back . I left it there kind of on the side and now it's full blown . And why I say this is because when you were speaking about theater , I just could sense that you were in this completeness , in this awe state , in this flow state when you speak about it . And that's the way I feel about art . I really would love to encourage people to explore whatever that is , whatever gets you into that flow state . I feel that goes beyond just the act itself For me as a connection with the , and just kind of downloading whatever consciousness , allowing consciousness to flow through me into that blank canvas , and it's a wonderful therapy . So just as a side note , maybe something to go back around into , I love that .
Speaker 2I totally receive that .
Speaker 1Thank you , noah , for being open to that . So , noah , you talked about religion a little bit , and that's something I always love to touch on . How has your view on religion , in regards to your own path and your own journey , kind of shifted . Do you still attend the same church and stuff like that , or how's that coming along for you ?
Speaker 2same church and stuff like that , or how's that coming along for you ? Yeah , it's interesting . I think , like so many , your belief system is solidified when you go through adversity and you go through some dark nights of the soul , right ? So of course that's what happened on my own hero's journey . So I started the podcast at 16 and I was loving it . I was loving it and I in hindsight succeeded and developed on the business side really quickly and I started my company Profit With Podcasting a few years after I first got into podcasting and I was helping others succeed through their podcasts and I love this work . I love this work and back then it was like the only thing that I had . I put my identity into my business and you know that's that's tricky not to do when what you do for a living is also your passion . But my I guess hyperachiever saboteur really kicked in in those subsequent years .
Speaker 2You know one thing I think that it might sound trivial but it's worth mentioning is I experienced a lot of bullying growing up . I was bullied for my weight , I was bullied for my appearance and remember it's not necessarily what happened to you , I think . Bullied for my weight , I was bullied for my appearance and remember it's not necessarily what happened to you . I think it's how your brain interpreted it and that was really hard on me . And I also grew up around a lot of affluence , I would say the communities that I was a part of the church communities , even just other communities that my parents put me in programs was where a lot of the I guess wealthy families would send their kids . So I was exposed to this and those were the kids that were bullying me . So something in my brain , some program , was formed saying you know what , noah , you might not ever be the most physically fit , you might not be the most attractive , but if you can just succeed in business , then people will respect you . So that's what I did . My business grew super successfully . I moved into a wonderful apartment on the water .
Speaker 2I was traveling to four different different countries a year . I , you know , had so much abundance , but I was just working nonstop . I had an office that I rented downtown and I would go there at like 6am and I wouldn't leave till 8pm and in , in , that was all , that was all working , but it was like the only thing I had going on . And then , um , anybody who knows me knows that I'm a pretty apolitical person I'm not really interested in politics so much but decided to run for city council in my hometown of De Pere , wisconsin , which is a suburb of Green Bay about 25,000 people and a friend of a friend was a Wisconsin state legislator and I made friends with him and donated his campaign and networked and he really became my mentor .
Speaker 2And I ran and I put everything I had in that race . I mean thousands of dollars of my own money . I personally knocked on over 2,000 doors and it was a nonpartisan election and I just put everything I had into that race . It became my , my identity , and during that time , uh , I had gained over 60 pounds in like six months . I was drinking all the time . Every single night I would just drink , um , you know , and and remember like I cringe when I say this now . But that was where the ego overcame . I thought that if I ran for city council and hung out at the cigar lounge every night , like the successful person that I am , that would make me respected in the eyes of others , and I remember . Then finally the election happened and I lost the election . We got like 40% of the vote and I was just so crushed .
Speaker 2I spiraled into the darkest depression ever and subsequently , two weeks after I lost the election , my tax advisor called me on tax day of that year and said Noah , you had a great financial year but it seems like you were mismanaging your money and you owe the . You know you had a great financial year but it seems like you were mismanaging your money and you owe the IRS $44,000 . And just you know , like smack , smack the loss , the financial , you know kind of catastrophe . And I was just in such a dark , dark place . I was at rock bottom . I can share on my recovery process .
Speaker 2But to answer your question about religion , rosalia , that's when I first even started contemplating my own personal relationship with the divine , because up until that point I had lived my life through the lens of ego . I had got caught up when I was growing up , in the tradition and the ritual and that sort of thing and what to say and what not to say , and I had lived my life like that . I mean , I was just really doing everything I was doing for the appearances of others . And it wasn't until I was totally like hit rock bottom that I finally started to contemplate my own relationship with a divine .
Speaker 1Wow , that's where I wanted to get to , but you know what the kind of run around and backstory you gave us . It's essential because in one way or another , most of us have been through the same journey , maybe slightly different , personalized and stuff . But you know I I went through the same rabbit hole , kind of like same high achiever pursuit of the ego , um , until I hit my rock bottom several times , not just once , just to make sure , just to be sure that I was shaken up enough to wake up .
Speaker 2Right .
Speaker 1And still it's a constant death and rebirth cycle that we go through and we get to know ourselves and the divine , a deeper and deeper layers , and just kind of like a 360 kaleidoscope . We're just kind of , like you know , readjusting and looking at things in different perspectives . So I do want to touch on your recovery journey , on your recovery journey Because to me that is , you know , we encounter defeat . Period in life , you know , like you said , is not so much as to what happens to us , but how we interpret that , how we alchemize that and how we use that as stepping stones . There's a really cool quote or a piece of information I heard somewhere I cannot recall to who , but credit to the author of this which was life is understood backwards and lived forwards .
Speaker 1Yeah , and that really resonates with me after my near death experience , because I was able to have a life review , definitely did understand a lot more kind of backwards as to what had happened and just not giving up , not giving up on life , not giving up on your journey , regardless of whatever defeat or failure that you , we may perceive , because we don't necessarily have the whole picture in this micro um expression per se . So I would love to hear a little bit about your recovery journey , um . I think that's really going to help me personally , cause I'm going through um , especially a weight loss um journey , and I kind of want to go about it the right way , you know , because I've done so many tricks to lose weight rapidly and then you know , you know how , we know how that ends .
Speaker 1So kind of like something more sustained throughout time , so I would really love to hear a little bit about your journey .
Speaker 2Yeah , you know , I think that when we're in those dark places , I think that when we're in those dark places we're able to hear God a lot better sometimes .
Healing Through Transformation and Podcasting
Speaker 2You know , and that's where I was at and it was , it was , it was a long and arduous process , I would say the recovery , but I was in conversation with God and I was in conversation with with the God that has always been with me and lives inside me and is all around me . You know , it wasn't the God of my parents or anything like that . And yeah , long story short , I had two good friends , two clients that saw that I was suffering . And there was an event in Texas and they said , noah , we need to get you to this transformational event for men and it was very much about sort of the masculine journey and overcoming trauma and that sort of thing . And in hindsight it really put me on a good path of recovery . I took what I needed to from that experience . But I would say since then , like I've even grown further and become even more sort of open-minded with my own relationship with God and so forth . But one of the things that they did at that event is they helped you realize that everything in your life , the good and the bad you brought forward . It was all your fault and that was really hard for me to accept . But it also was peaceful , because if I created this mess , then I could . Then I could resolve it as well . You know what I mean . It eliminated that victim mentality and it made me realize that , okay , I can turn this around , I can get out of this . So that's what I realized and I remember after the event I had been introduced to some wonderful people , one of whom is our mutual friend , dr Tara Perry .
Speaker 2And it's funny because I've been working with Tara for over a year and a half , just on the business side , and I had seen all of the great testimonials that she had gotten from her clients and all of the lives that she had changed through her , that she had gotten from her clients and all of the lives that she had changed through her hypnotherapy practice . And I remember I called her one day and I'm like Tara , I want to do your process and is there any way in the world that we can like do our first session today ? And and she said yes . So going through like RTT hypnotherapy , connecting with your subconscious mind , having a conversation with yourself helped me realize why I had made the decisions I made , because up until that point I never really paused to ask myself why did I do this ? You know it ? Just it just I thought it's what I needed to do and I realized that I was operating off of the programs that I had developed when I was a child . I was still that hurt little boy who had been bullied all these years later . And a friend of mine has a t-shirt that I love and it says the only diet that works is self-love .
Speaker 2So after I did my process with Tara and we did over the course of three sessions it was funny , it was our first session was about authenticity , the second session was about being authentic and the third session was about manifestation . So it kind of took me through that journey . And you know what ? I didn't join a 12-step program , I didn't join a weight loss program , I didn't sign up for anything like that . Just all of a sudden , there was no desire to not do the things . That no longer served me . You know when I had like hit some of those things at the root cause . So yeah , to answer your question , rosalie , it was a long journey filled with different guides . That event was transformational . Working with Tara was transformational , but yeah , that's kind of how that happened .
Speaker 1Well , thank you so much for bringing that knowledge into the space , and I love what you're saying about communicating with yourself , with your subconscious mind , kind of uncovering what programmings are running underneath you know , our decisions , our habits , things like that , like that . Um , lately I've been working a lot with DNA upgrades and I feel like a lot of us are capable of well , all of us are capable but , um , just if you're actively kind of looking into it of remembering how to recode and change our own DNA for the different things that we are looking for . And I've been definitely , um , almost every day focusing on on those habit changes and those things like that and and recoding and remembering how to work with this divine intelligence that we are , um , you know already we already come with the with everything we need . We just kind of have to kind of learn how to do this , um , but it's , it's beautiful .
Speaker 1Thank you for sharing that and for bringing light into you know , our childhood , our programming , our subconscious mind and kind of asking and looking for those answers within ourselves . Really , yeah , that's , that's beautiful . And self love is , I found in my personal journey , is definitely closely related with everything , with the life that we are co-creating with the divine and the reality that we get to experience 100% . So , noah , tell us a little bit about exactly what it is that you do in regards to podcasting , or I don't know if you also do any production or anything else that you because you're , you're multifaceted , so I'll let you explain kind of what it is that you do yeah , my passion is is podcasting .
Speaker 2You know , I had started my first show , as I said , when I was a teenager and I have hosted like six different podcasts since then and I love podcasting . I've produced podcasts for Facebook , Alibaba . I've had such a fun career and I love doing this . So my company is called Profit With Podcasting and I help people produce and monetize podcasts . I also help people get booked as a guest on other podcasts and the reason I'm so passionate about what I do is because I can honestly say that almost every good thing I have in life I can trace back to podcasting in some way . You know , I mean just lifelong friends . I was just in Iceland earlier this year staying with a friend that I had met through my podcast . Lifelong friends , clients , connections it's all through podcasting . You know , it's been my way to express myself and talk about what I'm passionate about and I just really want to help other people build their network and build their businesses through podcasting as well .
Speaker 1That sounds beautiful and I'll give a live testimony , since we're here , that's okay , it's my pleasure .
Speaker 1So Noah has been with us Okay , I don't know the timeframe , but it's been with us for a couple months now and there's definitely been a shift , um , in the stats of the podcast and the kind of podcast that I've been able to get booked as a guest on um and the guests that you've recommended to be on the podcast , definitely very um , high quality . And , as you say , a lot of the people that we come in contact with they're not just focused as clients , but we do form very good friendships . For example , I was just on with Sam Sam cross . We hit it off right away , we clicked and we text almost every day and we're just in constant communication .
Speaker 1Um , I want to go up to canada and visit , so it's really cool and that just happened out of you connecting us , being the communicator with everything and putting us together . I mean , that's the beautiful synchronicities of um divine working its magic through each of us , through all of the connections . So we're very , very blessed that you are a part of our family . Really , that's how I look at you , thank you .
Speaker 1So thank you and , guys , I highly highly recommend Noah . If you're thinking , if you've got a story , if you're thinking about just sharing or starting something , you're scared you need some guidance , reach out to Noah . He's super cool and he'll take care of everything and guide you through the whole process and just explain everything . So it's been a pleasure and I'm looking forward to continue working together . So thank you , noah .

You know what I mean . This soul work . It's what matters when I think so much that we focus on really doesn't so yeah , wow .
