    How Your Gut Health Drives Leadership & Peak Performance With Dr. Sal

    Send us Fan Mail Can your gut health actually determine how successful you are as a leader? According to Dr. Suleiman Bharwani — known as Dr. Sal — the answer is a resounding yes. In this eye-opening episode of the Unstoppable Success Podcast, host Jaclyn Strominger sits down with the board-certified pediatric gastroenterologist and founder of Gut Rewired to explore the powerful connection between your gut microbiome, brain function, and overall performance. Dr. Sal shares a staggering fact: our bodies contain 38 trillion microbes compared to just 30 trillion human cells, meaning we are literally more bacteria than human. These microorganisms aren't passive passengers — they're running a 24/7 factory that influences everything from immunity and energy levels to anxiety, depression, cognitive function, and even skin health. When the microbiome weakens from poor diet and lifestyle choices, inflammation takes over, leading to chronic illness, brain fog, afternoon slumps, and diminished leadership capacity. The conversation dives deep into Dr. Sal's practical 7-pillar plan for gut health, organized A through G: Avoid harmful emulsifiers, seed oils, and artificial sweeteners; practice diaphragmatic Breathing; Count 30+ different plants per week and eat colorful, antioxidant-rich foods; Drink plenty of water; prioritize Early sleep; practice 12-to-14-hour Fasting windows; and Go — move your body, especially a 10-minute walk after every meal. Dr. Sal challenges the common approach of treating symptoms with prescriptions, explaining that he actually takes patients off medications and instead writes "prescriptions" for families to find new colorful plants at the grocery store. He emphasizes that commercial probiotics are largely unnecessary if you eat fermented foods like yogurt, kimchi, kefir, and sourdough bread. He also highlights the overlooked power of nuts, seeds, lentils, and chickpeas, noting that a daily handful of raw nuts reduces cardiovascular and colon cancer risks by 17%. In a compelling message to business leaders, Dr. Sal asks: Would you run your company on corrupted data? Yet that's exactly what leaders do when they neglect their biological optimization. With 65% of employees reporting GI issues in any given month, gut health isn't just personal — it's a bottom-line business concern.

    Turning Down a Pro Contract to Redefine Success: Kenneth Kollasch

    Send us Fan Mail What do you do when the opportunity you've always dreamed of finally shows up — and taking it means chasing someone else's definition of success instead of your own? Kenneth Kollasch had a professional soccer contract in Brazil in hand at 21 years old, and one question from his grandfather over dinner made him realize it wasn't what he actually wanted. In this episode, Kenneth Kollasch joins Jaclyn to unpack the moment that redirected his entire life: walking away from professional soccer once he realized what he truly valued — presence, family, and fulfillment over a path that only looked like winning — and how that same clarity now runs five businesses without running him into the ground. It's a conversation about defining success on your own terms, building a "tribe" that will tell you the truth, and choosing fulfillment over the path everyone else would call a win. About Kenneth Kollasch: Kenneth Kollasch turned down a professional soccer contract to build a life with his wife, Caroline — together, they became international ballroom dance champions. He went on to serve as a pastor, become an entrepreneur, and publish his book, Beating Average: A Story to Extraordinary. Today, Kenneth is a certified business coach and founder of Kenneth Coaches, and a third-generation entrepreneur who now runs five businesses while helping small-business owners build businesses they love. What you'll learn in this episode: How one gut-check question from his grandfather reversed a life-defining career decision — and how to build that kind of honest "tribe" into your own life. Why Kenneth deliberately trades speed and scale for fulfillment, including giving partners equity in four of his five businesses so he can stay focused instead of stretched thin. The two-tool system he uses to run five businesses at once without burning out. His mindset shift from "make a decision and make it right" to "make a decision — you can always make another one," and why that unlocks acting now instead of waiting for a safer someday. The one trait he screens for before promoting anyone into leadership — and it isn't experience. Today, Kenneth runs five businesses, including his consulting firm Kenneth Coaches, where he helps small business owners 2X their revenue in two years through intensive coaching and proven frameworks. He also co-owns a production company called Production ROI, a dropshipping business, a physical product company, and a media company with its own podcast. Kenneth shares the secret to managing multiple ventures without burning out: staying in his lane, partnering with people who fill his gaps, and prioritizing relationships over revenue. He discusses the power of saying no, the importance of humility in leadership, and why generosity is the best operating system for a fulfilling life. Listeners will also hear about two planning tools Kenneth swears by the Here on a Mission digital life planner and the Full Focus Planner — both available as free resources on his website. Whether you're a seasoned entrepreneur or just starting out, this episode is packed with practical wisdom on building a business and a life you truly love.

    Stop People-Pleasing and Say Yes to Yourself | Pearl Chiarenza on Boundaries, Grief & Self-Care

    Send us Fan Mail How often do you say yes to everyone else — and leave yourself for last? In this episode of Unstoppable Success, Jaclyn Strominger sits down with Pearl Chiarenza, creator of the SHERO Method and founder of Women’s Successful Living, for a powerful conversation about boundaries, self-care, joy, grief, relationships, and living with purpose. Pearl shares the moment she realized that years of motherhood, volunteering, and taking care of everyone around her had pushed her own needs to the bottom of the list. She explains how a surprisingly simple object — a rock — became part of her practice for learning to say no, protecting her energy, and finally saying yes to herself. They also explore why creating a Joy List can help you reconnect with who you are, how loss reshaped Pearl’s perspective on life and legacy, and why meaningful relationships and community are essential to success. Pearl also introduces the SHERO concept — Strong, Happy, Empowered, Radiant, and Original — and the importance of creating space for self-discovery before life forces you to. This episode is for anyone who has ever felt stretched too thin, guilty for setting a boundary, disconnected from what brings them joy, or ready to make a more intentional choice about how they live and what they leave behind. In this episode: Why high-achieving women often put themselves last How to begin saying no without guilt The simple rock practice Pearl used to strengthen her boundaries Why everyone needs a Joy List How grief can clarify purpose and legacy The SHERO Method and reclaiming your identity Why relationships and community matter to success The power of retreats, reflection, and intentional self-discovery Listen to the full episode: podcast.jaclynstrominger.com Connect with Pearl: Women’s Successful Living: https://wsliving.com Soulful Self-Care Retreats: https://www.wslivingretreats.com Get the complimentary Joy Clarity Call https://calendar.app.google/w8tgsVJD5amUSvpo6 On linked In https://www.linkedin.com/in/pearl-chiarenza-8269a8b/ Support the show Support the Show - subscriber and get a Unstoppable Success Badge@ If you are ready to become unstoppable and create real momentum, here is your next step: Book a private strategy call: Let’s map your next level of growth Book a Strategy Call Join the Unstoppable Success Community: Surround yourself with high-performing leaders and real conversations Skool Community: Unstoppable Success Get the Book: Charting True North Stay connected and visible: Unstoppable Success Podcast Connect with Jaclyn on LinkedIn Become a Sponsor.

    Why Your Business Stopped Growing with Jaclyn Strominger

    Send us Fan Mail What if the reason your business has plateaued isn’t the economy, your competitors, or your marketing strategy? What if you’ve simply stopped using your voice? In this solo episode of the Unstoppable Success Podcast, Jaclyn Strominger explores the connection between leadership communication, business growth, relationship capital, and visibility—and why going quiet can quietly cap your revenue. After two powerful experiences involving her children—watching her 20-year-old daughter speak up in the workplace and dropping her son off at college—Jaclyn recognized the same pattern she sees in CEOs, entrepreneurs, and growing businesses: growth often starts slowing down when leaders stop communicating, asking, and showing up. In this episode, you’ll discover: • Why silence at the top quickly becomes a leadership problem • How poor communication creates uncertainty inside your team • Why relationships don’t turn into revenue until you make the ask • How “safe” content can make your personal brand forgettable • Why founders and CEOs need to remain visible as their businesses grow • How uncomfortable conversations can prevent small problems from becoming bigger ones • The three places leaders most often stop using their voice: their team, their network, and their visibility Your voice helped build your business in the beginning. It may also be the thing that gets you through your next plateau. Your challenge after listening: choose one place where you’ve gone quiet and do one uncomfortable, voice-forward thing today. Stand in front of your team. Make the ask. Say the thing. Start the conversation. Because relationships don’t convert to revenue by themselves. They convert when you ask.

    You Can't Lead Others Until You Lead Yourself (Not Even AI Can)

    Send us Fan Mail You Can't Lead Others Until You Lead Yourself (Not Even AI Can) Unstoppable Success Podcast, hosted by Jaclyn Strominger Can an app, a chatbot, or an AI coach do the inner work of leadership for you? Dr. Bobby Shelton says no, and he nearly didn't survive finding that out. In this episode, Success Strategist and podcast host Jaclyn Strominger talks with Dr. Bobby Shelton, author of Easy Hard vs. Hard Hard, host of the Self-Leadership Lab podcast, and holder of a doctorate in strategic leadership, about why self-leadership has to come before every other kind of leadership, whether you're leading a business, a team, or a family. What you'll learn in this episode: Why self-leadership, not team leadership or business strategy, is the skill most high achievers skip, and what it costs them The story behind the night it took Bobby 90 minutes just to stand up out of a chair, after losing his eighth friend to suicide, and the mindset shift that followed How losing over 100 pounds taught him that real results, and real self-leadership, compound slowly before they ever show up on the outside Why "comparison is the thief of joy" is more than a quote, it's a leadership strategy, and how to actually apply it How to build your own "personal standards," the non-negotiables that stop you from outsourcing your identity to what other people expect of you Why no external tool, including AI, can do the internal work of knowing what you actually want Who this episode is for: anyone who looks successful on paper but feels disconnected on the inside, leaders who want practical self-leadership strategies (not just theory), and anyone asking themselves "how do I lead myself before I try to lead anyone else?"

    Why Nobody Remembers Your Title (And AI Got It Wrong)

    Send us Fan Mail Can AI replace your doctor? Dr. Kris Deeter, physician-in-chief of pediatrics at Renown Children's Hospital in Reno, Nevada, doesn't think so, and she has the data to back it up.
