Ladies and Gentlemen, we would like to welcome this week's guest, the man himself, Samuel Miele! You won't want to miss this one, as he shares a bit of his story with us!   

Sam started applying for business grants at the age of 17.  After numerous rejections it was by faith he got approved.  Normally being turned down would discourage most, but not Sam.  Sam was hungry to pursue his dream of owning his own studio. The vision was to have a place in the Niagara region.  A creative space for people to grow their content while growing their brand name meant a lot to Sam.

Along with taking on the challenges that came with opening the studio.  Sam learned a lot rather quickly. For starters getting out of your comfort zone was a big one. Being prepared to hear "no", how to control your ego, and most of all just developing a good, happy, healthy mindset.  

Sam has learned a lot from the guests he's had the pleasure of interviewing.  As well as the clients he works closely with on projects of Vision Luxx. He looks forward to growing strong relationships with the Niagara region and family.

You're going to want to listen in as Sam gives details on his new show called - My Generation.🎥📺

Meeting Gold proudly presents to you Sandra Miele on this week's episode! This Interview is  jammed pack with an abundance of knowledge, advice on parenting, and above all. Love.  

Sandra didn't grow up to have a family at a young  age. Sandra had Sam when she was 36 years old. She had lived her life. She was independent, worked hard, attended university and didn't marry until she was 32. With the plan God had laid out for her, she was ready for Sam. Sandra had shared with us that her most significant part of her life was when she found out she was pregnant. From that day forward all she did was pray over Sam. For who he would become and the person he would marry someday.   

 The bond that a mother has to her child is something unexplainable. All Sandra wanted to do was get to know Sam ever since she found out she was having a boy. She shares that Sam taught her so many things in life. Patience, how to have fun, and to be present in the moment. It's important to not only teach our children love and responsibility, but to also listen to them and be able to grow with together.   

Sandra grew up with the knowledge of love, and the understanding of it based on her environment. Love shows in her story of parenting and being a stay at home mother. The importance of this interview is to love your children. Engage with them, play with them, get to know them as a person. But not forget to take it easy on yourself. There's no blueprint to being a perfect parent. As long as you show them what love is, you'll have a great relationship. Love is defined.  

Sandra's question she leaves the next guest is: 1). what was your favourite childhood toy? 2). What is the purpose of your existance?

Everyone, please give a warm welcome to this week's guest on Meeting Gold.  Nick Crozier!  From starting his life pursuing firefighting to a well-known Real Estate Agent in the GTA.  Nick talks about his characteristics and his personal self-awareness traits that keep motivating him to his next goal.  

Nick grew up with a Caribbean background in a hard-working household.  He learned at a young age that "You need to earn what you deserve."  To be content with what you have.  Growing up with this kind of mentality has shown Nick how to be humble and happy.  Being able to self-reflect on yourself and really disconnect in life is a priority to Nick.  Going on vacation, playing hockey, going for a run.  These are times when Nick sets aside his phone and takes in the moment.  Yes, it's important to socialize and keep in contact, but it's also important to feed your soul and completely disconnect.  Holding these strengths of mental toughness and communication has brought Nick great success. 

Nick talks about relationships and being in the present.  That speaks volumes about his integrity not only as a person but as a real estate agent in the competitive area.  If you want someone genuine and honest when looking for the "it house" Nick is your person.  With his honest outlook of helping you through one of the biggest moments in your life, why wouldn't you?   

Nick's question for the next guest is: "Who is the person you look up to, and what trait attracted you to follow them?"

The moment you've all been waiting for... We welcome MATT CAMPOLI as our Golden Guest this week on Meeting Gold!   

Wow, where do we even start on this fire episode?! Matt kicks off this interview with a heartfelt journey growing up.  His struggles were always in comparison with what his friends had and what his lifestyle was like.  Growing up with divorced parents and financial challenges.  Matt realized early what he did and didn't want for his future. 

After taking a year off of university.
Matt worked at a variety of places but he made the most money and sustainable relationships as a barber.  Which started out by cutting his friend's hair and grew to be much bigger.  In the midst of his mom selling the home and seeing what the realtor did he grew a strong interest in real estate.

Matt invested his time in reading more and listening to podcasts to grow his knowledge of the industry.  He started thinking of ways to leverage his experience as a barber.
He did just that!
Matt built relationships with his customers and started reaching out. While gaining confidence in a humble way that shows in his work as a sales agent.  

The most important tool Matt learned throughout his journey of success is self-development.
Matt has implemented meditation as a strict morning routine in his life.  When he gets the chance he takes the time to practice at mindset retreats. To cut out the noise of the world and focus his balance.  We all go through hardships in life, but it's about using those challenges and failures as fuel to chase our passions.
"We're all here to be good humans, to positively impact others" Matt shares. 
We think that's a good way to look at life.  

If you're struggling with the chaos of the world and need a reset. Mindset retreats might be your calling. ✨

Matt leaves us with this question for the next guest "What do you think living in alignment really means?"

We welcome this week's guest on Meeting Gold Filip Terlecki!! It was such a pleasure sitting down with Filip. Going through the behind-the-scenes production of how commercials are created. Originally Filip wanted to get into fashion photography. He applied to Ryerson University for photography and branching off from this course lead him to get involved in a filmmaking class. Seeing the first film he produced on the big screen and watching the audience react to it put the spark in his heart to pursue filmmaking instead. 

Now Filip runs a production company and handles all big branded content all over the GTA and beyond. Filip's goal is to expand into filmmaking, it's one of the things he loves so much about what he does now. Filip walks us through the process of his work. How he starts with a creative company to create a storyboard and works step by step with the client to produce and visualize how to shoot the content so it's most effective. From there he breaks it down from location, wardrobe and script.   

This interview revealed the secrets of how commercials are made. Filip specializes in delivering the proper content with depth and not just for the sake of mass production. "you can have great actors, a great storyline, and great dialogue. But if you don't have a good script you don't have anything." Filip shares. Generating an audience response or emotion keeps Filip fuelled for success.   

Filip leaves this question for the next guest. "If you could be a lead singer in a band, who would you be and what would that band be?"
