What’s Actually Holding Back Your Growth? | Ep 881
Makes sense. Does that help? Yeah. Hey Alex, my name is Josiah. We sell chiropractic services to members of Lifetime Fitness. We're going to do 16 million.
The Game with Alex Hormozi
What’s Actually Holding Back Your Growth? | Ep 881
No. So we're going to do 16 million this year. I'm going to get to 32 million. The thing that's stopping us right now is the sell for our chiropractors in the front end to the initial eight-week plan. They don't convert really well. Some do. We use the closer framework. Sure. And some doctors have three times the lifetime value of other doctors.
The Game with Alex Hormozi
What’s Actually Holding Back Your Growth? | Ep 881
The pushback we get is they say, I'm a doctor, I'm not a salesperson, too salesy. So they have a hard time following the script. Yeah. How can I break their mindsets?
The Game with Alex Hormozi
What’s Actually Holding Back Your Growth? | Ep 881
Cool. Thank you so much. No, you bet. Does that, does that help though? Super helpful.
The Game with Alex Hormozi
What’s Actually Holding Back Your Growth? | Ep 881
I was already talking with Jacob really about sales in terms of simplifying this and then starting like a three times a week role play. So that's been hit a few times. And then just talking with Frank too, it's like, I think we do have opportunities from the hiring standpoint. We just got to dial in the expectations we put even in the job posting interview process. So.
The Game with Alex Hormozi
What’s Actually Holding Back Your Growth? | Ep 881
I liked you. I mean, you dropped that video the other day on the planer. Exactly. I loved your idea about just breaking it to like a script on like a laptop or iPad, just like go through it together. That seems genius. So thank you so much.

John Paul is like Houston's little brother and Houston is so dear and kind. It's just such a great friendship. I adore it.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
John Paul has two goals. His first goal is to type independently because, of course, he wants to be a writer. And then his second goal is to marry Lily.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
We'd had such a great day. We had gone to bike squad that day, had so much fun. The day was gorgeous. Then we get home, we order pizza, just lovely. And then I was so tired because I tried to run next to him the whole time that he was riding. And I just wanted to take a little nap. So he comes into my room and I said, sweetie, I'm so tired.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
And he just looked at me, sat down, he looked at me and he smiled and he touched my arm really sweet. And then he just smiled and he just left.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
He went in and out of the hot tub. We didn't guard him in the house. That's impossible to do. When I woke up, it was just too quiet and just something felt funny. And I went up to, I went to our bedroom and I looked down because we have a two-story house and he was floating in the water, you know, face down. So I screamed and Peter, you know, we were just
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
So panicked, we were running down the stairs trying to get to him. And then he's so big. It was just, it was such a horrible scene. We could not get him out. But also there was moss around the bricks. So we were slipping and falling trying to get him out. And I was trying to, then I started giving him CPR.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
He had a choice, I think, because he threw up and his color's getting better, but then he just, he was gone. And then when all the rescue people came, they worked on him for about 45 minutes, just nothing, you know, and he looked so peaceful, so peaceful.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
I stayed there with him for quite a while and just talking to him, telling him what a wonderful son he had been and how wonderful he was.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
The life that we were living, she just was screaming, no. It was horrible. It was just horrible.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
The pain of it is almost unbearable. For him to just be suddenly gone. My friend Liesel, she said, we have to have a shiva.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
All my girlfriends came to my house. I couldn't even really function. Libby just laid on the floor in the living room. Nobody told me I had to be up and talking to people.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
His friends wanted to come over and pay their respects. And some of the friends were really hesitant because they thought it was going to be too emotional for them. But what we found out is that John Paul had told many of them that he was leaving.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
So sweet. So comforting. Yeah. The autistics all said that he said goodbye. And they knew. And as Noah said, he just couldn't continue the life he had to get the things he wanted to get accomplished. And so it was a choice.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
He actually didn't necessarily have the same experience of like, oh, is he reading my mind? That was not how we started seeing these things. It was pretty much solely spiritual unfoldings from the beginning.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
His first ever independent sentence was the most mind-blowing, miraculous thing because he had not spelled anything beyond three to five letter words at that point given to him, you know, as in choices. So what was his first sentence? God is a good gift giver. I'm like, what? How do you know that? And he spells A-U, and I'm thinking he's gonna spell autism or something.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
He goes on to spell A-U-N-T-I-E. Auntie told an angel to tell me. Auntie was my great aunt, and she died at age 89. Josiah, as far as I know, had never heard us talk of Auntie. He wouldn't have known Auntie. He wouldn't have seen pictures of Auntie. How did he know Auntie? And so that was the major pivotal point when our lives took a whole different direction.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
And she said, when you were laying with John Paul on the ground, you had generations of family trying to comfort you. They still are with you. They're always around you trying to give you comfort and love. She said, my dad and my stepdad were there together to take him to heaven. You know, they were there together. Becky said they were there all week. They knew they were going to take him.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
They just didn't know when. And I said, well, why were they together? You know, it was my dad and my stepdad. I mean, they weren't enemies, but they weren't, you know, buddy-buddy. And she said, because when you die, your ego goes. It's just love. She said, and they loved you so much, and they loved John Paul. And she said, they were there together because none of that stupid earth stuff matters.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
It's just not important. And the funny thing is, for some reason, a few days before, I shot a little cute video of John Paul in the hot tub. And he kept looking up and smiling and just looking up. Then he'd look at me and wave. And he'd go right back to looking up and smiling. And a lot of times I'd ask him, who's here? You know, what's going on? Because he could see things, angels, angels.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
For some reason, I didn't ask him.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
Which she's never seen. I don't know how it works. I don't know anything about this. But it's like he created this heaven, this beautiful heaven. And she's like, if you understood that he's just right here, he is right here. He's just, I guess, it's a different dimension. But she's like, he's always with you. He's here. And she said, if you could see what I see, you'd feel happy.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
After all this, basically, I just think of our bodies as our casing that our spirit is in, our energy is in. And when we die, it's just the energy goes and this is the casing that remains. That is literally how I think about it now.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
He goes on to tell me about these classes that he's taking in heaven. And that is very peculiar because he's talking about how he is sitting at a classroom table, and a lot of times it's shaped like a triangle. And there are these different kids that are at the triangle desk, and they're discussing these ideas. And it
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
It reminds me of what later you would hear is like The Hill or where they're getting like this information and exchange of ideas between each other. He wrote, "'Class in Heaven' spans the most brilliant minds that ever lived.'" And then he goes on to say, it's quite a sight to see the daily workers do what they did on Earth.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
Josiah's language was definitely very different. He would write in proverbs and in poetry. It sounded very highfalutin. Tani showed some of his writings to an acquaintance who was a linguist. Like a professional linguist. And she read a bunch of his writings and she said, every language and culture has certain rhythm and cadence, a language style.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
Scientists, chemists, carpenters, kings, lofty, rich ideas are kissing their mind. And he said, picture this school in eternity.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
He's talking about literally getting taught by people who he said kissed the skies when they were on Earth, but they're like in heaven teaching the things that they learned about. And then they have just a higher understanding of it from a different perspective.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
It's kind of a mind-blowing idea that there are things that happen on Earth that then there's a spiritual perspective behind the veil to those things. In fact, that heaven is feeding a lot of the most brilliant minds on Earth.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
She said, this is unlike any language that I really have ever studied. He would know things about me, about God, about others that I didn't know.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
I asked him, what exactly happens when you have all those supernatural experiences? And he says, an open vision is when I see something in front of my eyes like a real, but it isn't yet happening. So I see it like it's going to happen, and I see it while I'm awake. I see it with my spiritual eyes like full pictures.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
Another thing that he says is a closed vision is symbols or scenes that represent something else to understand it better. I see closed visions all the time in my mind. So there's kind of a decoding going on, right, with symbols and scenes. Then he goes on to say a dream is a sleeping ordered to ring in truths only the spirit says to you without your studying it. So it's downloads of information.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
The hard part was laying down my own sense of fear and reputation to actually deliver those words. Because his insights were often very personal and private. But they were always inspiring to help that person continue on in their journey. And that was an amazing thing to witness.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
I didn't know that there was anybody else experiencing this out there, that there was anybody that was like us. I was trying to get a handle on what in the world was happening. In fact, I remember asking his communication partner, do any of your other clients talk about things like angels or spiritual matters? And all she said was, oh, that's just his special interest.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
I was working with someone who was helping me write the book, Josiah's Fire. And her name is Cheryl. And we would often have morning phone calls where she would interview me.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
And that was that. Josiah comes home from school later on that day, and he starts spelling something... very profound about somebody. I have no clue who he's even talking about. And then all of a sudden, he uses this phrase that links back to the conversation that I was having earlier with Cheryl about this guy, Max.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
He writes all this stuff about Max like he's a major novel writer. He doesn't write like other people do. He was talking about how his house was popping, popping, popping. And then he says, are you a barn man, Max? Like there's animals or there's a farm by you.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
Telepathy is the tip of the iceberg with their spiritual gifts. People don't understand that they can do this. They don't even have to be in the same room, the same zip code.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
I don't know this Max. I don't know details about his life, except that he had an author-to-author conversation with my friend. And so I share this with Cheryl, and I'm like, get this. How did he know about Max? Not thinking that she's going to share that with Max. She goes on to share what Josiah had written to Max.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
It bothers Max because he's going, how does this person know this? Because they were building a new house and it was popping, popping, popping. They were using the nail guns. And he doesn't live himself on a farm, but he's right next to his in-laws' farm. And they have like peacocks and animals and that sort of thing. Max is like, are you looking at my house from Google Earth or something?
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
I'm like, I do not have that kind of time. He almost made me cry. I'm like, dude, I did not want anything to do with this. And this went on for five years. Josiah goes on to write like 23 pages of stuff. that was highly prophetic, directional.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
You know, he heard your prayers or whatever in the woods last night. It was kind of like undeniable confirmations down to phrasing and words and things that no one would ever know about.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
Even the word like motel is specific. So I band songs together, like in a playlist that I will play.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
So that happened like many times. And it has changed my life so tremendously that it has opened me up to things that are beyond what I knew and what I could see.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep. 9: Telepathy Across Dimensions, Death, and Beyond
They're opening up us to the things that are beyond our wildest imaginations. We all need to be changed. We all need to come out of our paradigm.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep 10: In Their Words: Messages from the Non-Speakers
The gifts of one person are one thing to lift up. But this podcast finally says, we are all in there. The foolish people are those who have stolen the story to say this is not possible. I am one of many of us, thinking and dreaming and feeling, and I am openly praying that others can be unlocked to spell too. This is my long hope for my friends that I hasten to help.
The Telepathy Tapes
Ep 10: In Their Words: Messages from the Non-Speakers
I need them to tell others that they are in there too. I am one person who is listened to, but so many are never known about. Name it the mission to go and free them all. It's not long before loads of us will truly log our names as the longtime listeners of life. and look like the story makers that we are.
