On this platform, we are stoked to bring you high performers who are not just chasing and attaining success, but refining it through providing above and beyond service. A really quick coaching knowledge nugget this week, squad. As you ever notice when the pressure hits, most people don’t get better. They get louder in their own head.

They start thinking more, they start trying harder, forcing it. That’s the problem. Calm under pressure isn’t about lowering the [00:01:00] stakes, it’s about raising your standards. I had a coaching client just really recently, he’s getting geared up for a professional MMA fight, actually next weekend. Absolute savage in the gym.

I’m talking dominant, fast, technical, dangerous. But come fight night sometimes, he’d tighten up. Not because he wasn’t prepared, it’s because his mind started racing. “What if I gas out? What if I get caught? What if I lose?” And in that moment, he wasn’t fighting his opponent anymore, he was fighting himself.

So we flipped it. No more emotional thinking, no more outcome chasing. We trained one thing, neutrality. Not hyped, not scared, just locked in. ‘Cause when you’re calm, more. When you see more, you react faster. And when you react faster, you control the fight. Same thing in business, same thing in life.

Pressure doesn’t demand more effort, it demands cleaner execution, and you don’t rise to the moment, you fall back to what you’ve built. So if you wanna be dangerous when it counts, stop trying to feel ready. Train yourself to stay calm, again, neutrality, squad, and let your preparation do the talking. And talking about letting preparation do the talking, and a man that really [00:02:00] needs no introduction, but I’m so blessed that I literally just got to meet him this week.

I’ve heard a lot about him through a good friend, Jeremy Howard and other people in the Jupiter area. But he doesn’t just talk about alignment. He’s lived it at the highest levels of performance, from the pressure-packed world of elite golf to the calm, grounded leadership of spiritual growth right here in South Florida.

This next guest bridges two worlds most people never connect. John Denny is a senior minister at Unity of Jupiter, but don’t let that title fool you. This man has spent years coaching top-tier athletes, including working alongside world-class golfers like Lexi Thompson, and I also just found out he worked with a sailing Olympian as well, and still does, and he helps them perform when everything is on the line.

Before that, he was a true innovator, one of the original pioneers of stand-up paddleboarding instruction. His early SUP, S-U-P for stand-up paddleboard, training video didn’t just make waves. It blew past a million views before most people even knew what paddleboarding was. So now he’s bringing the same mastery of mind, body, and performance into something deeper.

Through his platform, The Harmony Exercise, where he teaches how alignment isn’t just physical, it’s mental, emotional, and [00:03:00] spiritual, this is a guy who’s helped athletes stay locked in under pressure, and now helps everyday people find clarity, purpose, and flow in their lives. So whether you’re looking to close a deal, sink a putt, or just get your head right, sit back, relax, and take notes, guys, ’cause I got the awesome sauce John Denny in here.

And John, thank you so much for coming on the show, brother.

John Denney: Ah, you are so welcome. Yep. That’s quite the introduction there.

Coach Fergie: I appreciate that. So if I gave you a paddleboard, a golf club, and a microphone, which one are you grabbing first, and why?

John Denney: I’ll grab whichever one, suits the day. I love it.

I don’t care which one, what it is. Yeah. But I just know one thing, whichever one I’m gonna grab with, I’m gonna grab it with love and gratitude, love it. And try to be in a good mood when I do it.

Coach Fergie: Yes.

John Denney: And I think I’ll do it a little bit better. My philosophy is happy people do better than unhappy people, so if you can train people to be a little happier- Gratitude

you’ll probably make them better in their sport.

Coach Fergie: My clients from house husbands, housewives, to elite athletes, by 9:00 AM their time every morning, ’cause I’m blessed to coach people around the world, they must send me their intention for the day and three things they’re grateful for. Every day I start that up, ’cause I’m a big believer in the [00:04:00] reticular activating system with, say if you had a Tesla, and said, “Fergie, I have a Tesla,” and I’m like, “What’s a Tesla?”

I go see it. I see your emotion around it. I’m like, “Wow, that’s really cool.” I get emotional. I leave. How many Teslas do you think I’ll see? So if we- All day long … all day long, and they’ve always been there, so it’s the same thing with gratitude. There’s always something to be grateful for. Always. I love, love, love that you said that.

You’ve coached… let’s get to your story first, ’cause it’s pretty- … darn cool, man. Let’s get to the roots of John Denny. Where’d you start? And, ’cause when we were sitting in that circle at the networking group it was like you were the energy. I’m gonna tell you right now, I was like, I gravitated to everything you said, and when I introduced myself, you’re like, “Everybody likes to shine,” ’cause the name of the company.

I was like, all right, this guy is somebody I’m gonna really get to know better. But what’s your roots?

John Denney: My roots are from Long Island. I was grown up in a sort of, I was, came from a very entitled background. Okay. And entitlement’s something hard to overcome, I’ve found as I get along.

Thank you

Coach Fergie: for being transparent about that stuff. Wow.

John Denney: But yeah. Okay I was a spoiled brat. And then I, after [00:05:00] college, I moved out to California, and when I was 23 years old, I met a man named Carroll Righter. He was 85, born in the year 1900. Happiest person I ever met.

Coach Fergie: Wow.

John Denney: He was the astrologer to the stars.

He was Ron and Nancy’s astrologer. Okay. He was the astrologer to every star in Hollywood.

Coach Fergie: Sure.

John Denney: And we got to know him, and I’m like, “Why are you so happy?” And he said, “‘Cause I’ve learned how to think correctly, John.” And I’m like what does that mean?” And he goes, so from 1985 to 1988, I spent most weeks with him, learned his meditation, went to his little metaphysical church in Hollywood.

Sure. And I learned what I believe is how we take control of our minds. Sure. And what we think about, we bring about. If you spot it, you got it. And then learning how to control our minds. So you just talked about this morning, I was on my dock, 6:30, meditating to the rising sun, renewing my mind into health, harmony, abundant supply, the thoughts that I need to deal with this day, to deal with whatever.

Sure. Now, I know I’m [00:06:00] gonna go out and deal with the world’s thoughts in a minute. But I got to do, I got to set them, I got to set my foundation right.

Coach Fergie: Your intention for the day-

John Denney: Yes …

Coach Fergie: is that,

John Denney: every day.

Coach Fergie: Every single

John Denney: day. I’ve done that every day since December 1st, 2016. I have been a daily meditator, so 35…

And I’ve done this meditation since 1985.

December 1st, 2016, I made it a daily practice.

Coach Fergie: I love it.

John Denney: Everything changed. Yeah. Everything changed in that first year.

Seven years to the day, they gave me the job as senior minister at Unity of Jupiter. I’m not a minister. I’m not qualified to be a minister.

However, my application in life of these principles was such that the community wanted me to be minister, and so- Sure … that’s how it happened. It wasn’t an aspiration. It was I was put in that position. It was really crazy.

Coach Fergie: Sure. And again, the respect comes along with it. ‘Cause I, again, when I do my dives I called a few people, and they’re like, “John Denny.

Oh my gosh, you got him coming on.” So you’re a leader, right? And I love that you said you spot, if you spot it, you’ve got it. Go a little deeper on that. What do you mean by [00:07:00] that?

John Denney: It’s our thoughts are things, and we become what we think about.

Coach Fergie: Absolutely.

John Denney: So if I’m gonna be thinking about my problems, I’m gonna have more and more problems.

Yeah. I’m gonna have plenty to look at. Absolutely. If I start thinking about my blessings, I’m gonna have more and more of them. Yes. Start seeing more and more of them. So it’s really a simple cause-and-effect relationship. What I focus on is what I am gonna attract to me.

And it’s not… it’s, it doesn’t matter.

N- nothing there is, n- nothing cares what you think about.

But you get the results immediately.

Coach Fergie: 100%, yeah.

John Denney: 100%.

Coach Fergie: Think about, you bring about. It’s 100%. Yes. So you’ve worked with, top go- golfers. Now, you- the only reason why I mentioned her name, ’cause she was in part of the- And

John Denney: she’s mentioned mine plenty of times on

Coach Fergie: TV

John Denney: Okay, gotcha.

Coach Fergie: So Lexi Thompson, is she really retired? I’m kidding. We don’t need to talk about that. But, She’s

John Denney: married.

Coach Fergie: But what separates someone who’s talented you’ve coached people at the highest level. What do you, what separates someone from, who’s talented from someone who actually closes at the highest level?

John Denney: Y- clo- actually closing I, again, it comes back to self-confidence and happiness. The ha- [00:08:00] for me. Now, at the high, their coaches may think something different, and I don’t really talk to people about the sport. Do you think I’ve ever told Lexi one thing about golf? Oh,

Coach Fergie: Exactly.

John Denney: Never. Forgot

Coach Fergie: more about what I’ve ever

John Denney: known. I stay a- … matter of fact, stay away from golf, really … no, maintain that

Coach Fergie: lane, yeah.

John Denney: And same thing with my sailor. I’ve worked with her for four years. I only just saw a 470 boat a few months ago- Okay … for the first time.

But I know if I can get her to be happy and- Okay

connect with her partner better-

…

John Denney: They’re gonna make that boat go faster every time.

I knew if I could get Lexi to connect with her caddy better, with her people- Relationships, yes … and her team better, she would do better, and she won almost immediately. So a- and e- each time she came back over the years, her performance would improve dramatically right away.

‘

John Denney: Cause she’d get out of her own way.

Coach Fergie: Love it. I love

John Denney: it. Yeah, that- And that’s the most important thing.

Coach Fergie: I got a lot of athletes, I have one right now just got called up to the show in the majors, and we really worked about giving himself permission. A lot of people, they don’t.

They g- they… and a lot of it’s setting up an alter ego for them to perform at right now. Yeah. But what do you think about these [00:09:00] athletes or even hi- other high performers that you coach pr- giving themself permission to succeed. You see a lot of people, I see a lot of people, they hold themselves back ’cause they just don’t give themself permission.

John Denney: Or claim, or just claim it or affirm it. Giving yourself permission or just affirming yourself as that right away. “I am awesome.”

I lo- people ask me how I am, “I’m awesome.” Okay. “I am great.” 100%. I’m not gonna sit there and tell them th- I’m not gonna dump my garbage on them.

What’s the point, right? It can’t help me.

Coach Fergie: Exactly.

John Denney: So I may as well tell them what I wanna be, and I wanna be awesome

Coach Fergie: all the time. 100%. And you the subconscious mind is, I think a lot of people don’t realize how they’ve been programmed. Kids are told “no” an average of 135,000 times by the time they’re 12.

What do you think they’re gonna… we’re born salesmen. When a baby cried- Born … give him the bottle, right? Or whatnot,

John Denney: h- honestly, few there be that find it, right? And that’s the whole thing. We are programmed completely the wrong way by our society.

We’re programmed basically- To follow the follower and the fo- and the wrong person in the first place. And so once that [00:10:00] awakening comes, but it doesn’t happen to a lot of people.

So a lot of people go out there and they just play these sports with a, with a, RBF all the time, and just have a bad attitude, and still can perform pretty well.

Sure. They make a great living. They do. But I was like, man, imagine how great a living they’d make if they were actually happier. That would be crazy.

Coach Fergie: Yeah it… When you, they turn that corner, I’ve blessed to have been present in s- a few of my, business leaders and athletes when they turn that corner, and they’re happy, and they’re waking up.

And the best part is when I get a call from a spouse.

They’re like, “What did you do?” I

John Denney: agree.

Coach Fergie: They’re “This is amazing.” And they sent me and my Susan out on, I’m blessed to go. If I can say it now he’s a billionaire in South Carolina. He’s a hedge fund guy, and his wife came when I was…

He flies me up there private, do his we do as coach says. I talk to his analysts, and his wife came to me in their guest house. And he’s… There’s a reason why, which is not for the air to talk about. But there was intimacy that they hadn’t had, and we didn’t talk about that once.

But she sent Susan and I on this cruise. It was just amazing,

John Denney: I, if I can only tell you how many times I’ve heard that same [00:11:00] exact story. And so it’s m- yeah.

Coach Fergie: It’s amazing. When you get the call from the, the- Because people don’t- Sort of part of validation John, on this side? Not validation, just hearing it.

John Denney: So here’s what… We always told our kids, “You just better calm down and take a breath.” To me, that’s gonna make them more angry, ’cause no one’s ever taught them how to calm down- … or take a breath, right?

So this entire thing we’re talking about to be happier requires a systematic approach.

How do you do it?

How do you focus your mind? How do you breathe right? How do you think right? How do I change that emotional feeling in me? ‘Cause everything you’re saying about sounds great. Yeah. I wanna do those things. Sure. But how do you do it?

Coach Fergie: Yeah.

John Denney: And so I use, biofeedback equipment.

I show people their heart rhythms and heart rate variability. Love that. Love the

Coach Fergie: proof.

John Denney: Yeah.

Coach Fergie: Yeah.

John Denney: I wanna show- Lexi would have never come back if I didn’t show her scientific proof day one.

Coach Fergie: Yes.

John Denney: And I showed her that heart math machine- Yeah … that I use, that heart rate variability machine. I showed her how to control her temper and tension, and she was like, “Wow.”

She came back four days later, and I was like, her mother called me within 20 minutes of her leaving my office, and I was like, “Coach, she’s coming back.”

Coach Fergie: That’s amazing.

John Denney: That- And the [00:12:00] second time she came back, I actually taught her my whole meditation, which I usually don’t do till later, but I was like-

Coach Fergie: Right

John Denney: if she never comes back after round two, I want her to know this.

Coach Fergie: To know this.

John Denney: And then she- … and then she came for two years after that.

Coach Fergie: Amazing. Yeah. And she I respect Lexi. She’s an amazing golfer, and- She was 11- … her attitude and her love for her country is also- Oh, she’s- … as well is awesome.

John Denney: Yep.

Coach Fergie: For their version of the Ryder-Cup Solheim Cup. The Solheim. She always got after it. Squad, we’re gonna throw it to my awesome spaus- sponsor, Steve Austin from Rise Mortgage. And again, Steve, thank you so much. Let’s hear that mortgage nugget of the week. Take it away.

Coach Fergie: Hey, Steve, thank you so much for the market update and the market nugget.

I don’t know if the rates are really gonna come down after my conversation with my producer today, but who knows a lot. But we’ll see what happens out there. But Mr. John Denny you went from, you do your sports performance coaching. Now you’re leading Unity of Jupiter, right?

And you’ve le- led it for, what, what- I hate the word, use the word triggered, but what caused that shift? I know they asked you about, but was there a moment where you knew there was a mission that needed to evolve?

John Denney: Yes. So I told you I met my mentor back in ’85, and he introduced me to the world of metaphysical Christianity.

Okay? Yeah. So I, I believe that as like studying the power of thought- … at the highest level. That’s what I can define that as. And he introduced me to that world. When he died, we found another church in Boulder, Colorado, and then she died, and [00:15:00] then Unity Church was where I was led to next after that.

Okay. And I was always part of this church for the last 14 years. I was on the board, president of the board, I was the treasurer, I was always a b- always had this little church in my life. And then COVID came, our minister left, and we got a minister who wasn’t, not a real good fit for our community.

And so the community really came close to dying, and then at the end of it, I was, we went for a year of guest speakers.

Coach Fergie: Okay.

John Denney: And the community really liked me, and I s- I guest spoke 26 out of 52 weeks that year.

Coach Fergie: Gotcha.

John Denney: And then this group of people got behind me, and they wanted to do it.

Now it’s funny ’cause you would say we’re coaches and we wanna help other people. That is so not my motivation. My motivation is really to help myself. I’m very selfish when- Sure … it comes to this stuff, and I feel the happier I can be, then the ha- then the more I can help other people- Thank

Coach Fergie: you

John Denney: by- Thank

Coach Fergie: you …

John Denney: by osmosis- Yes … only. Yes. But if I just go out there and have my intention to help others, I don’t know what I’m gonna do. I see a lot of people with that intention, and it doesn’t seem to work- … out too well. So my mo- I’m [00:16:00] selfish about this, and my main intention is to help me and my family.

And then when I see what works there, then I do share it with other people-

Coach Fergie: Absolutely …

John Denney: if they want it.

But my coaching practice is really very small now. It’s very sm- you know, there’s probably about five or six people- It’s pretty

Coach Fergie: darn distinguished, though. It’s pretty nice, man, so it’s good.

John Denney: I like people who are committed to wanting to do a little better.

Coach Fergie: Yes.

John Denney: And yeah, it’s moved more into the ministry now and working with a sort of a bigger group of people. But our, again, our church is way out of the box. It’s very- Yeah …

people would call it spiritual but not religious, even though I believe those are synonyms.

But it is, so we really focus on the practical application of love, gratitude, and forgiveness in all areas of our life, including high performance.

Coach Fergie: Sure.

Absolutely.

John Denney: Being grateful for the sport you get to play, loving the sport you play- Yeah … loving your teammates.

One of the, not understanding the r- the caddy-player relationship.

When you look back on the Jordan Spieth years when he was doing the im- impossible- Yeah … there was a spiritual aspect to that [00:17:00] which is undeniable. Sure. Those two believed in the impossible happening- … and it happened over and over again. Something happened later, and that, that went away.

Coach Fergie: Sure.

John Denney: Yeah. And there’s all these different attributes, but- So learning a systematic approach. I believe that me getting up on the dock, getting out to my dock at sunrise each and every morning-

…

John Denney: Has developed my happiness to a level where I’m sitting here with you right now.

Period.

Coach Fergie: And getting to meet people and gravitate to people that- Absolutely … you can pour into, but also… Now i- what I loved is the selfishness. ‘Cause I am the exact same way. My first 90 minutes of my day is about me. I- there’s nobody else. Me and maybe my pit bull if he wants to tag along, right?

But other than that, if Stitch is there, that’s great, but it’s all about me. ‘Cause I know that when I am selfish it’s the cliche with the, when you’re on an airplane- Yes … putting your own, the mask on first. If I can lock it in-

John Denney: That’s not a cliche, by the way …

Coach Fergie: but you know what I’m saying. Yeah.

Yeah. I- if I can lock it in, I can lock into my clients, and pour into them 100%.

John Denney: Yes.

Coach Fergie: We have to talk about the SUP, the stand-up paddleboarding. The squad, he’s talking all I don’t know, [00:18:00] but he’s a legend. So whatever, he’s gonna downplay it. He is a legend in the stand-up paddleboarding world.

But what did you… you were ahead of the curve with a lot of the content that was being put out, right? So what did you see early that maybe others missed?

John Denney: Okay.

Coach Fergie: And how did, how does that tie into how you approach kind of life and o- opportunity?

John Denney: So I was living on Maui for about 16 years. Both my children were born on Maui, and we happened to be Laird and Dave and all their, all- Laird

Coach Fergie: Hamilton

John Denney: squad

Laird Hamilton’s next door neighbor, right? And so they actually rode these big tandem boards.

Coach Fergie: Okay.

John Denney: Okay? And they rode them a l- a- we had a lot of fun on them, rode them all the time, and then Laird figured out he could stand up on one. And then he took a little paddle and he started paddling with it, and then he had someone make him a bigger paddle, or he stuck some, PVC onto his paddle and made it long.

Such an

Coach Fergie: innovator,

John Denney: man. Yeah, complete innovator. And then we all started trying. He’s “You gotta try this. This is so fun.” So we went over to this little place called Mala Wharf, which is a nice gentle wave on the south side of Maui, and Dave Kalama and Laird Hamilton- Wow … we all started trying it, right?

[00:19:00] So we all loved it. Then I took my wife, and she who, she does not like any extreme sports, no violence, doesn’t like getting hit by a wave, but she loved stand-up paddleboarding.

Coach Fergie: Nice.

John Denney: Loved it.

Coach Fergie: Loved it.

John Denney: And I’m like, okay, if Laird likes it and my wife, Barry, likes it- The whole world is gonna this sport so I immediately bought $250,000 of paddleboards, three containers of paddleboards. Wow. I knew nothing about retail. I knew nothing about keystoning. It was really- … the stupidest thing anyone could do as far as a business venture. If I… A matter of fact, I did talk to a business friend of mine later.

He’s how much you go- how much do you buy them for?” And he says, “How much you gonna sell them for?” And he looks at me, he goes, “That’s not gonna work.” So I’m just like, “Too late.” “I already…” So I had three containers of paddleboards, and we ended up selling them all, and I ended up, we started a company called Paddlefit, which trained people in proper technique, in proper safety, and if you wanted to start a paddleboard company, you would take training from [00:20:00] us, and you could- Sure

get insurance discounts and all kinds of things. And we took that globally. I taught in Australia, New Zealand, taught in Fiji, taught all over the world, people how to paddleboard- … properly.

Coach Fergie: Gotcha.

John Denney: And and then that turned into sort of, national training and things like that. So that was one of the big things, and we became, pretty strong in that world of teaching.

It’s

Coach Fergie: fun. I try. I’m not bad at it, but I’m not great. But also, I believe there’s some fundraisers that Jeremy Howard was talking about

John Denney: with- Oh, with Paddle for the Cure. Yeah, Paddle for the Cure. Those guys started at my office. Sure, yeah. Yeah. And Travis and Sweet.

Coach Fergie: Yes. Yes. Yes. The cystic fibrosis or something

John Denney: like that where you- Yes, called Piper’s Angels.

Coach Fergie: Piper’s Angels, that’s what it is,

John Denney: right. And Piper’s Angels is a great organization. They paddle from Bimini back to Jupiter.

Or actually Lake Worth. My son did that a few years ago. I paddled around Manhattan four times, so I was like, “I don’t wanna paddle- Yeah … across an ocean in the middle of the night.”

But yeah, that’s an amazing organization. And they’ve really used the paddleboards for great fundraising.

Coach Fergie: Absolutely. So quickly on this question the, the whole Back to the [00:21:00] Future question. Let’s get in that DeLorean with Marty McFly. Let’s go back to the double deuce, the 22-year-old John, but quickly.

What’s the first thing comes to mind that you might drop on him for knowledge? Not to change anything, ’cause you’re, you’ve lived a pretty awesome life, but to maybe help him shorten a learning

John Denney: curve. Stop drinking earlier- Okay … than I did. That would be one. That would help. That would have definitely improved my- Sure

speed along the success route. Yeah, and to have some more self-confidence, to not think that I can’t do it, because I’ve come to realize that really everyone’s struggling along in this life- Yeah … doing the best they can. Very few people actually know what they’re doing. We’re all making it up as we go along.

Absolutely. Sure. And if you find something that truly works-

…

John Denney: That truly makes you feel better or works for your health, like you were talking about Laird’s products making you feel better. If you truly find something like that share it with people, absolutely. And that’s the way we make the world a better place, and that’s what I do.

And so what I find what helps me, I share,

Coach Fergie: I love it. Yeah. Ab- absolutely. So I have another kinda canned question, but how does John Denny- want his [00:22:00] dash remembered? That little line in between your incarnation date and your expiration date. Your life date and death date.

John Denney: I’ve given a sermon on that.

That, that’s a, that the dash is called a sermon that you’ll find a whole bunch in our churches. Sure. They talk about the dash. But how would I want my dash to be remembered? That, that I made a difference. That I was a good person. I didn’t screw anyone. Basically, that I got everything I want out of that life, and I didn’t hurt anyone, and I helped others get what they want.

Love it. If I could have that as my dash, that would be good, but.

Coach Fergie: Love it. And I f- I, I actually added to my definition of success just this week. I used to just say that success is living a life of options, not obligations, right? But then I s- added, People are like how do you do that?” And then I would add in, “Do what you love in the service of people that love what you do,” to live a life of options and not obligations.

So if I’m doing what I love helping people. Love it. That’s, serving- Yeah … has always been a thing. But the people that I help see it, that I love it.

John Denney: So I have two definitions for success that work for me. One, one came from Earl Nightingale. He said, “Success is the progressive realization- Sure … of a worthy ideal.”

Yes. [00:23:00] Meaning we get up, know what we’re doing.

The second is from Napoleon Hill, who said, “Success is getting whatever I want out of life.” “Getting whatever I want.” I love that. Getting everything we want- Yeah … without hurting anyone.

Coach Fergie: Love it.

John Denney: And with helping other people get what they want.

You do those three things, you’re living this life as a success. Absolutely. In every, I think, in every definition you can find.

Coach Fergie: I love it. It, I love it. I, you never can go wrong with a definition, ’cause it’s all kind of personal.

John Denney: Yeah.

Coach Fergie: But I love that, that Earl Nightingale. And it’s funny I find myself I’m…

Actually, my second book that’s coming out is called Regurgitate, where basically I, all of my podcast interviews, I’m taking and regurgitating what I feel that they have taught me in the world. And, but you look back at all the people that have helped people, from Tony Robbins, or when, now they say Tony was taught by Jim Rohn.

Jim Rohn, Earl Nightingale, Earl Night- all the way back to Waddles, to Aristotle- All the- … Jesus Christ. It’s all the

John Denney: way- What do you think?

All these la- all these new guys,

Coach Fergie: sure.

John Denney: Joe Dispenza. Dispenza, yeah. They’re all the same. They’re all regurgitating what Napoleon Hill- 100%, yeah

same stuff over and over.

All of them.

Coach Fergie: And I’m gonna have volumes [00:24:00] in the book, because the, it’ll have… one, one I’m writing, Harmonic Hustle, which drops pretty soon, and it’s, the whole thing takes place in Jupiter, where it’s a real estate broker, loses a deal, wants to quit. But in Juno Beach, his dog brings him a book and says, “If you read in this you, it, you’re not finished.”

So it’s like a, but all of it. So it’s, I’m getting excited. So I might be picking your brain about a- Ah, I love it … couple different areas on the stuff. But we’re winding it down now, so how can we find you? What’s the best way and what do we wanna promote and get out there?

John Denney: You can always find me at Unity of Jupiter.

And we meet on 12 o’clock on Sundays at 701 Ocean Drive at the Ocean View United Methodist Church in Juno Beach. We have a really fun organization, great fellowship, great group of people.

Coach Fergie: Sure.

John Denney: I have my daily meditation on the harmonyexercise.com. You can go to that and- See what we’re doing there.

And you can get ahold of me at theharmonyexercise@gmail.com. So-

Coach Fergie: Gotcha …

John Denney: always very simple, super to find me, easy to find me, so-

And please do me one last solid and leave us with one last knowledge nugget we can take with us, internalize, and take action

John Denney: on. All right. I think that the faith without works is dead. So- Yes,

Coach Fergie: wonderful … let’s- Brian’s shaking. Brian’s actually I think said that to me before.

John Denney: Okay.

Coach Fergie: Yeah.

John Denney: So ta- Yeah

Coach Fergie: Action. I love it, man.

John Denney: So- I love it … talk is cheap. Let’s get up and go.

Coach Fergie: I love it. And squad I actually jot down notes. I rarely do that during interviews, but I’m sure that if you’ve listened, you’ll have pages of notes. So thank you so much for tuning in.

All our troops who are heading overseas, all my fellow veterans, please be safe out there. Thank you to Brian Mudd, my producer at WJNO. Everybody go out and have a great weekend. Love your
