Meet Dr. Asif Munaf: A Life Coach and Nutritionist with a Medical Degree

Dr. Asif Munaf: On the Pursuit of Life

A doctor, nutritionist, life coach and entrepreneur, Dr. Asif Munaf has proved that success can be achieved only if we work hard and believe in ourselves. Born in Sheffield, United Kingdom, in a Pakistani immigrant household, Dr. Asif was always on the lookout for opportunities to shine. His positive outlook on life and passion for helping people and the sick led him to acquire an MBBS degree from one of the prestigious colleges, the University of York, in the UK. After graduating with a doctorate, he decided to complete his training at the same college. 

Being an expert in any field and excelling at everything one does can be really challenging. And to perform with efficiency, it is essential to understand that one needs a nutritious diet along with proper rest in order to complete those tasks. This is precisely what Dr. Asif Munaf discovered during his strenuous training. His job was not only hectic but also needed focus and attention to detail. His interest in nutrition developed when he felt he needed to maintain his health through a balanced diet while staying active even after a 12-hour shift. 

Though he always followed a healthy lifestyle, being a doctor with a master’s degree in Public Health, he fully understood how crucial it was for him to perfectly balance his diet. According to him, there was a lack of good quality food available in hospitals for both patients and staff, and hence he decided to pursue further education in nutrition. “I started making my own smoothies which I took to work to keep me nourished during my 12-hour hospital shifts. I then decided to research more about nutrition, and this led me to complete my level 3 qualification in personal training. I experienced firsthand how good food can improve mood, cognition and energy levels,” he shared.

As he studied nutrition, he got to know how much we lack in our diet, and he wanted to make everyone understand the difference between eating healthy and the right kinds of foods. Even though avoiding sugar and carbs can help you reach your desired weight, it doesn’t mean that you are following a healthy lifestyle. Many nutritionists claim that a proper diet contains everything, from protein to carbs and dairy products etc. It all depends on the portion sizes, which we often tend to overlook. Given his medical background, Dr. Asif knew he could help guide people toward healthy living. While researching, he also learned how a bad diet could negatively impact moods and mental health. 

There was a time when Covid-19 had literally taken over our lives; it was a tough time for everyone around the globe. Apart from thousands of casualties, it also brought isolation and one of the biggest depression waves that engulfed the majority of the people. The pandemic had, in fact, restricted all of us to stick to confined spaces, which wreaked havoc on people’s mental health, leading people, especially young men, to commit suicide. Being depressed and emotionally alone can cause an emptiness that sucks every inch of their beings, and their will to live is ultimately lost. Realizing that not many people were paying attention to such issues, Dr. Asif Munaf took the initiative to help the community and all those who were desperately seeking it. He has been conducting coaching courses, with one-off sessions aimed at changing people’s mindsets so they could face life’s challenges without any medication or therapy. 

Then there is another course called Masculine Mastery, which is focused on mental health and boosting self-confidence. The sessions are all about giving men an edge in life, particularly those going through adverse mental health issues, and empowering them to become the best versions of themselves. “I saw a real pandemic of mental health, particularly in men who were often too ‘proud’ to seek help,” he stressed. 

Dr. Asif further elaborated, “It is said that nutritional deficiencies such as low vitamin D often contribute to adverse mental health. As my master’s thesis looked at barriers to men seeking help, I was acutely aware of men’s reluctance to seek help for serious conditions. So, I wanted to remove these barriers, dispel myths and give men a platform to open up about any adverse mental health symptoms they may be experiencing. I appeared on a podcast about mental health, and this led to me starting my own Mindset Mastery course in September 2020.” 

Dr. Asif Munaf understands how important it is for people suffering from mental illnesses to have their nutrition intake checked and balanced. To help them out, he also founded AM Wellness company that offers vitamins, supplements and at-home-blood testing for a range of nutritional deficiencies. 

About Dr. Asif Munaf

After a decade of service, Dr. Asif Munaf put a hold on his medical adventure and has been spreading mental awareness through his courses and health supplements, as well as nutritional products. His remarkable journey from being a first-generation Pakistani British to accomplishing so much in life is truly inspiring. His work to help men become emotionally and physically strong speaks for itself. His love for the well-being of others motivates him to think of more efficient ways to change lives for the better.

Barbara Majeski and the Inspiring Story Behind One of Television’s Most Well-Loved Face

Barbara Majeski, also known as the Curator of the Good, has been a well-loved face over the years. She is someone who entertains viewers with her classy wit, unforgettable smile, and impeccable taste in lifestyle, entertainment, and travel. Her television comeback was more than just a segment relaunch; it was the return of a woman who carries a story of triumph, restoration, and newfound passion for life. 

Barbara Majeski has had TV appearances in shows like the Today Show, Inside Edition, NY Live, Chicago the Jam, and Good Day New York. But before being where she is now, she had to get through situations she would never imagine to overcome.

Back in 2015, she had to succumb to the reality that her marriage was coming to an inevitable end. As if getting a divorce was not life-altering enough, she was also diagnosed with stage 3 cancer. Anyone in Barbara Majeski’s position would have easily crumbled, but she mustered all the courage she could possibly find within her to give herself one big push to fight cancer without a spouse being there to support her and look after their three children. 

As she was receiving her treatment, she made herself a promise that if she were given a second chance to live out her life, she would be bolder, bigger, and better than before. As she braved the storm brought about by her cancer and divorce, she did manage to find the strength and the grace to come up with a more hopeful, determined, and passionate person. Grateful that she surpassed that grueling and unforgiving season in her life, Barbara Majeski returned to television, more vibrant than ever. 

Inspiring people with her story of triumph and recovery is now one of her priorities, and it inspired the launch of her own podcast called Baring It All, which is available on her personal website. She features celebrities, entrepreneurs, and influencers who have an impactful message to share with her audience. Just recently, she launched a club on Clubhouse, naming it the same as her podcast. Both platforms enable her to reach a massive audience: people who need to hear stories that bring hope, inspire courage, spark change, and trigger a desire to become the best version of themselves. 

Alongside her television projects and podcast, Barbara Majeski is also a philanthropist and avid yogi. For her, finding the right balance in life is of utmost importance. Making time to relax, meditate, unwind, and commune with nature is her way of giving herself a break from life challenges. 

Barbara is best known for her authenticity and transparency. She is also a woman of substance, sophisticated fashion sense, and impeccable taste. These are mostly what draws her audience to her personality on camera, and her following has been growing steadily over the years across the country. 

Having survived what she did in the past, Barbara Majeski hopes to give hope to others who suffer in silence. They, too, can find solace in starting all over again.

Thought Leader and Life Coach Roderick Mason Exemplifies Overcoming Life’s Adversities

Adversity, most people believe, is one of life’s greatest teachers. It sharpens one’s character, improves one’s perspective, and defines peoples’ core values. Life coach, thought leader, and sought after corporate trainer Roderick Mason cannot find it in himself to despise the seasons in his life that he encountered loss, sickness, and emotional pain. Instead, he is grateful that these have taught him to become the passionate and visionary person that he is today, a leader who empowers others, and a motivator who has others’ best interests at heart. 

Roderick Mason is the founder of the emerging company, Holistic Coaching Solutions, a thriving platform that specializes in offering high-end corporate training services. The company offers diversity and inclusion training, leadership consulting, wellness coaching, bucket list coaching or life okay program, and peer group training for C-level company executives. Mason is best known for his unique ability to motivate his clients, regardless of the stage in life they are in or the personal troubles they are trying to overcome. As someone who has survived the death of his father, getting sick unexpectedly, experiencing the pitfalls of sales, and seeing people close to him suffer in pain, Mason has discovered different ways to rise from a painful experience. 

The Loyola University alumnus is also popular for his penchant to accumulate knowledge so that he can effectively empower his clients to become the best version of themselves. His qualifications are considered top-notch, making him a specialist when it comes to holistic growth. 

Roderick Mason is a Certified John Maxwell Speaker Trainer Coach. He is also a Certified CBMC Leadership Coach, Certified Bucket List Coach, Certified Primal Health Coach, and a licensed Diversity and Inclusion Trainer. Mason invests heavily in his personal growth, believing that he cannot offer others what he does not have. In adding value to his personal abilities through constant training, he is also in the best position to elevate the worth of every individual he encounters as he imparts his skills and knowledge at the same time. 

Having worked in sales for quite some time before establishing Holistic Coaching Solutions, Roderick Mason has witnessed many pitfalls that employees go through within the organization. More than just being motivated to work, he also discovered that people are almost always looking for significance, and the lack of it can easily drive them to lose interest in their work and personal commitments. 

“After working in sales for years and watching people literally run a company into the ground, I realized two things: I don’t like working for other people and I couldn’t do any worse. They had run their companies into the ground and if that was the worst thing that could happen to me, I could live with that. I couldn’t live without even trying,” Mason shares. “The cemetery is full of unfulfilled dreams. Who wants to get to the end of their life and the only thing you have to declare for a life on this planet is regret for the life you didn’t live?”

Determined to make a difference in the lives of as many people as he can reach in his lifetime, Roderick Mason looks forward to bringing Holistic Coaching Solutions global and offering luxurious retreats in exotic and exciting locations. He aspires to make his training experiential, to bring his clients outside of the normal training rooms they have been used to, and make them see what they are missing in life. As he continues to add value to the lives of his clients through his training, he looks forward to seeing them become the best version of themselves.

Jennifer Chapman: Surviving Stroke and Starting Just Commit Coaching

After suffering and surviving a stroke at only 34 years old, Jennifer Chapman rediscovered life and its value through life coaching sessions. Today, she has taken on the role of a life coach at “Just Commit Coaching,” seeking to help others who find themselves in the same position she was in. She is committed to helping them overcome the struggles that come with surviving a stroke.

Jennifer Chapman grew up in Colt’s Country, surrounded by her loving family. At the young age of 11, she lost her biggest supporter in life, her mother. Life went on with her dad and brother filling in the void that she felt after she had lost her mother. Her extended family (aunts and grandparents) also helped support her while growing up. She grew up with a passion for dancing and tennis, which eventually became her therapy.

After college, Jennifer Chapman ventured into the sales arena, spending ten years in the beer, wine, and spirit business. Eventually, she navigated her way outside of her comfort zone and became a business sales representative who impressively hit President’s Club in her first year. The following year, the dedicated sales professional turned 34 years old and felt that she experienced an epiphany. Jennifer recalled how her mother passed away when she was only 34 years old as well. Nine months later, she suffered a stroke without any signs. She found it hard to believe as she was generally healthy. This changed her life instantly and marked the beginning of what would then become “Just Commit Coaching.”

To overcome her experience, Jennifer Chapman had to accomplish acute rehab and therapy. Fortunately, she completely recovered physically. However, she struggled with mental and emotional challenges as she faced her “new normal.” With the help of a life coach, she finally overcame her negative thoughts and feelings. She learned to fully accept her new normal and gained confidence in her new life. Today, she takes pride in being in control of her mindset, attitude, and potential. She is now on a mission to serve other stroke survivors who may find themselves in a dark place. 

“I know I cannot serve anyone else unless my own cup is full of love, joy, acceptance, belief, and strength,” says Jennifer Chapman. Now that she has completely transformed her life for the better and understood the purpose of her experience, she seeks to guide others in overcoming their challenges. She is dedicated to providing them the support they need through Just Commit Coaching. 

Her coaching sessions are designed to cater to stroke survivors who need emotional support. She seeks to guide them in accepting and overcoming the emotional baggage that stroke brought into their lives. She guides them in discovering a new sense of self, purpose, and potential. “It is all about taking a deep dive into the root of their challenges and then offering solutions,” explains Jennifer.

What separates Jennifer Chapman and Just Commit Coaching from others is where Jennifer comes from. Being someone who had firsthand experience in this challenge and having been able to survive and grow from it makes it easy for her to connect and relate to the difficulties that the clients are experiencing. 

In the future, Jennifer Chapman hopes to grow her one on one coaching sessions to grow into group coaching, where she can lead masterminds globally. She hopes to be part of networking events, conferences, and other events. She is ready to take on the podium as a motivational speaker who can inspire others with her story.

Tara Roe on Keeping the Faith and Pushing Forward

People who are thrown the hardest punches in life are those who would soon wear those blows as badges of faith and dignity. These are the people who understand that getting the wind knocked out of them is the only way for their lungs to taste the breath of fresh air. 

And Tara Roe, a well-regarded beacon of hope, proves that passing a trial by fire is one of the most empowering and rewarding experiences one can go through. By overcoming the ordeals and hardships life has handed her, she shows that she can survive anything. 

Tara’s life has been an arduous and painful journey. As a matter of fact, one would find it hard to believe that someone with a radiant personality and a positive outlook like her had to go through a dark and terrible past. But as baffling as it may seem, Tara explains that it is precisely for the series of misfortune that she is now thriving and blooming with so much love in her heart.

Being looked up to for her character of granite, Tara significantly attributes the strength she emanates to her faith in God. In an interview, she passionately exclaimed that her drastic transformation, which was rooted in Christ, provided her vast blessings and allowed her to share these gifts with the masses. She adds that through God’s grace and enlightenment, she realized that her life purpose is to become a vessel of His love, light, and truth. And with her fiery determination, she carries out her mission and leaves embers of inspiration. 

Having fallen prey to the hopelessness of life’s scorching setbacks, Tara understands that it is normal to feel misguided and lost. However, she encourages everyone who is in that sullen state to keep that faith and to continue moving forward. Because as tough as hardships can be, they are nothing compared to the power of God and His faithful promises. 

With her lifelong preparation of conquering battles, Tara has become an expert in self-transformation as well as financial fitness. And using her story, she strives to help others with theirs. 

Looking back at everything Tara has been through, it would not have come out as a surprise if she had given up. But being someone who is anchored in Christ, she refused to succumb to the dire circumstances. With so much trust in the Lord, she chose to push forward and become better.

Tara sends the message that as awful as challenges can be, the latter will ultimately become a catalyst for a beautiful transformation. And having transcended and surmounted the seemingly impossible adversities, she walked away with a better understanding of her own capacity and inner strength.

Tara reminds others that if things currently seem grim, there is no need to fear. Instead, remaining steadfast and grateful as these trials likely become highly formative experiences they will be come to be thankful for in the future.

Tara recently founded Next Level Purpose Academy (www.nextlevelpurposeacademy.thinkific.com) , a way to connect, support, educate and inspire others like her. Her premier course, THE END OF SUFFERING, a ten week journey of transformation for abuse survivors, will be launching September 10, 2020 and is available for pre-enrollment and preview now.

To know more about Tara and her tales of hope and faith, you may visit her website, Instagram, and Facebook page.

Trailblazer Life Coach Jordan Hardgrave Changes Lives and Helps People Heal From Trauma

Going into business without any prior experience is intimidating and scary, which is why some people make sure to secure college degrees and initial experience in business before partaking. But not for Jordan Hardgrave, who took a leap of faith that paid off immensely. Through his online course for mental health, Jordan is breaking the expectations of everyone by earning impressive passive income for his family and transforming the lives of thousands around the world with no business experience.

Aside from breaking the stigmas surrounding mental health, Jordan Hardgrave is also breaking the stigma of needing college degrees or heavy business expertise to become a successful entrepreneur.

Jordan Hardgrave started on YouTube first. After his videos gained traction, Jordan got flooded with comments and emails asking him to create an online course that elaborated on what he had been teaching in videos. People have been complaining that the existing products were too complicated and failed to give results. With the online course, the lessons would be streamlined and more efficient.

Following people’s advice and encouragement, Jordan Hardgrave created an online course, but it was not enough to secure his business. At first, sales were slow, and he wondered if he would be able to pay his bills. While listening to an interview with billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, Jordan learned the number one lesson that became crucial for his entrepreneurial pursuit. 

According to the lesson, the product must be significantly better than the competition to stand out and prevent going out of business.

Applying what he had learned, Jordan Hardgrave studied his competitors closely. Jordan would offer improved services and better benefits compared to his competitors. He kept his online course simple but effective and designed to answer the many questions that his competitors failed to shed light on.

Not allowing himself to stagnate in his field, Jordan Hardgrave makes sure to continually improve his products every single day, which sets himself apart from the others who rarely update and improve their products and services. Every day, Jordan strived to study and learn more about his field and subject matter and then apply to his online course. He also listened to the feedback of his students and applied their helpful points to his online course.

As he expands his reach to help millions of people a month, instead of only thousands, Jordan Hardgrave also hopes to scale his business into seven figures annually by branching out into different markets such as dating and relationship coaching and services. 

By hitting two birds with one stone, Jordan Hardgrave can continue his calling of helping people out with their mental health problems while inspiring new business owners and making them realize that anyone can start a business and earn success as long as there are time and effort involved.

Overcoming a Grim Reality, Zelda Volkov Now Lives Life to the Fullest and Helps Others Do the Same

Many people are fortunate to have grown up with aspirations to become something big. While it may sound ridiculous, there are, in fact, people in the world who take time realizing the skills they have and what they aspire to become. Zelda Volkov was among those people.

Zelda grew up in a close-knit ultra-Orthodox home to Russian immigrant parents. She was raised to be an obedient daughter and, by 19, found herself married. A year into her marriage, she gave birth to a baby girl. In the seven years to follow, she would welcome two more beautiful daughters.

One of the Orthodox traditions that Zelda grew up with was covering her hair once she was married. Many other women used scarves to cover up while others used sheitels or wigs or half-wigs. For the first three years of her marriage, Zelda looked at wigs and saw them as a burden. By 22, she decided to start making her own wigs that resembled her long, wavy blonde hair more closely.

In 2013, she opened Zeldahair in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. Her company is a bright wig shop that caters to a younger audience, making it popular and bringing in other Orthodox Jewish women who fly across the country to shop there, occasionally bringing in customers from different parts of the globe. Zelda crafts wig styles that have a wide range, from multicolored mermaid waves to the trendy tousled brunette lobs. 

Despite the popularity of her business, she felt that life made zero sense. Her loveless marriage would result in a divorce. At 27 years old, Zelda still had no clue who she was or what she wanted. She was staring at the world with so much angst. The only life that Zelda knew was how to be the obedient daughter for her parents, a devoted wife to her husband, and a loving mother to her daughters. 

Much like Lily Aldrin in the American sitcom How I Met Your Mother, Zelda just wanted to run away. While her business was her precious muse, but somehow she couldn’t muster the courage to give it any attention. Zelda turned to a cycle of toxic relationships, partying, drinking, sleeping, and eating. She was under the false impression that this was a life of freedom, but deep down, she knew that misery enslaved her.

To escape the pain, she would turn to instant gratifying pleasure, anything that turned her away from the grim reality she had created.

However, Zelda took the brave decision to change. She went through years of therapy, learning, researching, analyzing, traveling, and soul-searching to find herself. She discovered and created the P.R.O.M.I.S.E. which is her saving grace.

Zelda has since then become a life coach, using her program to help people manage their mind, body, and soul. The program helps people create success in just six weeks with her coaching methodology breaking down limiting beliefs and helping people identify their core purpose. 

Now, Zelda lives her life to the fullest and on her own terms. She manifests her dreams every single day as she works her dream job, meeting incredible people, and traveling the entire world

Zelda currently hosts a podcast on Apple and Spotify called Oh My God, where she has open conversations with people and talks about their struggles as a human being and as an industry leader. It serves as a space where she can have honest and raw conversations with trailblazers about their struggles as human beings first and industry leaders second. Each episode gives their listeners actionable techniques and takeaways that they can implement into their lives.To know more about Zelda, visit her website.
