The Impact Podcast

This episode digs into the real heart of longevity: not the anti-aging hype, but the mindset, lifestyle, and community that help high-performing leaders thrive through every season. Dr. Beckford shares her journey of surviving an aortic dissection, rebuilding her health, navigating major weight loss, and reclaiming her power — all while building a space where people can ask real questions without shame or judgment. With candor and clarity, she reveals why intention, movement, stress management, and meaningful relationships matter more than any miracle supplement.Dr. Yvonne Beckford is a force — equal parts clinician, culture-shifter, and blueprint for reinvention. A comprehensive dentist based in Atlanta, she brings more than professional expertise to the table; she brings lived experience. Eight years ago, she survived a life-threatening aortic dissection — the same condition that killed John Ritter — and endured an eight-hour surgery, a year on Coumadin, and a complete re-evaluation of how she wanted to live. That moment didn’t weaken her; it sharpened her vision.She rebuilt her health, embraced major weight loss, and underwent knee replacements — not as limitations but as strategic upgrades. Her transformation gives her unique empathy as a clinician and fierce clarity as a woman who understands time, mortality, and purpose at a cellular level. She’s also the founder of The Longevity Circle, a growing community dedicated to helping people over 40 live intentionally, move with purpose, embrace reinvention, and build meaningful second-act lifestyles. With her bold isms (“You’re old, not cold,” “Don’t give away your insurance,” “Only weak people need weaker people around them”) and her unapologetic approach to boundaries, relationships, health, and identity, Dr. Beckford brings a fresh, grounded, and deeply resonant perspective to longevity that cuts through noise and empowers leaders to truly live.Longevity isn’t about stretching years — it’s about upgrading your life, mindset, and relationships so every season serves you. Dr. Beckford reminds us that reinvention is not optional; it’s necessary. And whether you’re 40, 50, or 70, your second act is waiting for you to step into it with clarity, confidence, and intention.Follow and connect with Dr. Yvonne Beckford:Website: https://www.drbeckford.com/Website:  https://dryvonnebeckford.com/Facebook Group: The Longevity Circle — join the community and plug into her upcoming retreats, events, and lifestyle experiences.Ready to elevate your next act as a leader?Step into the ecosystem built for purpose-driven, high-performing entrepreneurs at www.impactleague.co — where ambition meets action and legacy begins.Get booked on the Podcast!

In this electrifying episode of The Impact League, founder Twyla Garrett sits down with algorithmic trader, market maker, and global crypto strategist Nick Landerville—one of the most quietly brilliant financial minds operating today. What begins as a conversation about Bitcoin quickly evolves into a masterclass on wealth creation, intelligent risk, and the real mechanics of financial freedom. Nick breaks down the global power of Bitcoin, why traditional education failed entire communities, and how algorithmic trading flips the rules that keep most people stuck in linear income systems.This episode isn’t just conversation—it’s a blueprint. For leaders who want to expand their wealth IQ, operate globally, and stop playing by systems that limit their potential, Nick’s insights will shift how you think about money forever.Nick’s journey began not in high finance, but with a poor gaming computer he learned to overclock for performance. That curiosity led him into Bitcoin mining, algorithmic optimization, and eventually the world of derivatives and market making—fields where only the top fraction of global traders excel. Today, Nick processes more than $6 million per year in trading volume, has generated 12+ million in executed transactions over two years, and is recognized among the top private high-volume performers on platforms like Bybit. More importantly, Nick’s philosophy goes beyond profit. As he says in the episode, “Money is just a tool. If you’re a good human, you simply gain more leverage to do good when you have more of it.” This value system makes him an ideal force within The Impact League—where wealth is not the endgame but the amplifier of impact.This is a wake-up call for every leader, creator, and entrepreneur who knows they’re meant to operate at a higher financial level—but hasn’t yet been shown how. Nick Landertown delivers the rare combination of technical mastery, strategic foresight, and human-centered intention that the future of wealth demands. His insights dismantle the fear around Bitcoin, leverage, and algorithmic trading, replacing confusion with clarity and replacing intimidation with possibility.If you’re an impact-driven leader ready to accelerate your wealth, influence, and global footprint, visit www.impactleague.co. The community is built for ambitious thinkers who want more than success—they want systems, strategy, and a network that elevates their impact.Step into the league. Expand your potential.

Her story isn’t just inspiring — it’s a blueprint for resilience, vision, and wealth creation across generations.She breaks down how she mastered the art of the “win-win” negotiation — making both buyer and seller feel like they’ve won — and why emotional intelligence matters more than tactics in closing deals at any level. She shares the mindset shifts required to thrive in today’s market, the importance of mentors and networks, and why wealth accelerates when you surround yourself with people who think bigger, move faster, and operate with integrity.Joanne English-Rollison isn’t just a real estate professional — she’s a fourth-generation wealth architect shaping the landscape of homeownership, development, and negotiation nationwide. Her father opened one of the first Black-owned real estate offices in the 1950s, building homes for families who would’ve never otherwise qualified.

Her story isn’t simply a journey — it’s a playbook for every entrepreneur who wants to build wealth that outlives them.

A quiet powerhouse. Calm, analytical, and dangerous in the best way — the type of leader who drops a game that goes over most people’s heads until the deal is already signed.This episode pulls back the curtain on how real estate really works — not the hype, not the Instagram fantasies — but the hard, operational truth of making deals pencil. Impact League Founder Twyla Garrett sits down with Kevin Calhoun, entrepreneur, investor, Marriott hotel owner, Six Sigma Master Black Belt, and one of the Titans leading Impact League’s real-estate and business optimization initiatives.From syndication models to hotel ownership, market analytics to business efficiency, Kevin breaks down wealth-building through real estate in plain language. He also reveals why less than 1% of hotels are Black-owned — and why that statistic pushed him to invest, build jobs, and create opportunity. For entrepreneurs tired of guessing, hoping, or winging their way through business, this episode delivers clarity, structure, and real-world education.Owner of Marriott franchise hotelsExperienced in acquisitions of multiple Marriott and Hilton propertiesCommercial real estate financing expert (multifamily, mixed-use, hospitality, flips, development)Specialist in syndication structures — pulling investor groups together to purchase large projectsSix Sigma Master Black Belt + Lean ExpertGlobal corporate optimization career across major manufacturing and business sectorsFocused on job creation, training, and long-term economic empowermentWhen Kevin talks about financing, feasibility, ROI, or deal structure, he’s not theorizing — he has decades of real numbers, real properties, and real capital behind him.
