Marvin Towler - Trainer/Speaker/Instigator/Athlete - Episode 28

“Growing up, “instigator” always had a negative connotation…

…So I looked up what it means. And it’s someone who stirs the pot in a good way; and instigates change.” ~ Marvin Towler

Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast

Episode 28 with Marvin Towler – Trainer/Speaker/Instigator/Athlete

In Episode 28, Christine and Brian sit down for a fun and thought-provoking conversation with admitted instigator Marvin Towler. Marvin is a talented Success Coach, coaching others in clarifying goals and working towards personal and professional success. He has worked with some of the biggest names in the personal development industry. Along his path to self-mastery he came across Gary Keller and Jay Papasan’s #1 best seller The ONE Thing, which had such an impact on him that he decided to become one of the first 40 people in the world to be certified to teach the powerful principals of productivity.

We discuss the importance of setting practical goals, developing positive habits, the myth of productivity via multi-tasking and the interesting benefits of having experienced adversity in our lives. And much, much more!

And one interesting side note, Marvin becomes our second straight guest to forgo a legal career to pursue greater passions in life. Ah, The Universe!!!!  A life-long student and consciousness explorer, Marvin Towler is constantly evolving and unfolding!
