Suze Yalof Schwartz, CEO and Founder, Unplug Meditation App

Deborah Kobylt Live

Knowing when to unplug from the noise in life is critical, and lately in Los Angeles,
it’s survival. The stress from the recent fires and political unrest is a lot to take on,
but we have to find a way to stay balanced and healthy.

Please welcome to our show, #SuzeYalofSchwartz, founder of #Unplug meditation
and wellness center and the Unplug app. And let me tell you, if you’re not near Los
Angeles and cent get to her studio, the app is a MUST! First off, it’s reasonable,
and it’s packed with daily practices of breathing and relaxation exercises that are
easy, relaxing, peaceful, and critical to bringing us to a place of feeling calm and
centered. And if we feel calm and centered, we can tackle almost anything in life,
because we’re of a clear mind. And that’s when the magic happens.

Suze lost her home in the #Palisades #fire, and it her daily meditation retreat that’s
pulled her through. In fact, when I saw her posts almost immediately after the
fires, I was stunned at her sense of calm, and she says it’s because of her daily
practice e of breathing and movement. And we’ll be talking about how you can do
this, too. Doesn’t take a lot of time or money, just a few minutes. And I’m right
there with you, because regulating my emotions is a journey I’ve been on for some
time, and these simple techniques really help.

Please join my conversation with Suze on all video and audio platforms of
#DeborahKobyltLIVE, and invite your friends, too. I’m your host,
#DeborahZaraKobylt, and I thank you for joining us.

Jake Steinfeld, Body by Jake founder, Actor, Entrepreneur

Deborah Kobylt Live

Please welcome to our show my friend, Jake Steinfeld, founder of Body By Jake, the
phenom fitness lifestyle routine that’s changed bodies from flabby to fit worldwide.
But that’s just part of his story. Jake is also a successful entrepreneur and he’ll be
talking about a new product that he’s launching. He is also an established actor, and is
one of my all-time favorite movies (think Eddie Murphy).

In a town rumored to be transactional, he’s anything but, having been married for
decades to my beautiful friend, with whom he shares four children. Jake is a family
guy, and often referred to as the “Honorary Mayor of Pacific Palisades,” and yes his
home, and just about everything in it, burned to the ground in the January fires. But
perhaps it’s his resilience that I most admire, always looking ahead, creating new
business opportunities, remaining positive, and focusing on rebuilding. And I thought,
there’s a lot we can learn from Jake Steinfeld about how to keep going even when the
world seems to be going up in smoke, and he joins us to talk about his life, career,
family, and incredibly positive attitude that he lives by. And there’s more…we’ll ask him
about any possible political ambitions we’re hearing about, too.

Please join me in welcoming Jake Steinfeld on all video and audio podcast platforms
of #DeborahKobyltLIVE, and invite your friends, too. I’m your host,
#DeborahZaraKobylt, and it’s my pleasure to welcome you here.

Marla Tellez, Award-Winning News Anchor at Fox 11 Los Angeles

Deborah Kobylt Live

Please welcome to our show, my friend Marla Tellez, award-winning newscaster at
Fox11 Los Angeles, who joins us to talk about career, personal struggles growing up,
and becoming a mama a few months ago at the age of 48!

Growing up, Marla said she never dreamed of becoming a news anchor or reporter.
She had other ideas, but when the opportunity presented itself, she grabbed it and
never turned back. Now, she anchors along side an incredible team at FoxLA that
includes my friends Elex Michaelson and Christine Devine, arguably one of the best
newscasts in town (of course I worked there, so I’m biased).

Marla has an incredible story of her own, and wait until you hear it. Not an easy
childhood, she worked hard to keep strong while navigating some pretty challenging
hurdles, particularly with her dad. We’ll ask her about that and what kept her going.
Marla is also a runner, which not only keeps her sane, but also fit. Now 49, she had
her first baby just a few months ago – Sloane – and I’m so in love with this little girl.
We’ll talk about the challenges of pregnancy at a certain age, and how she and her
husband are managing, because soon, Marla will be back at work, and we’ll talk
about the challenges we all face as new moms. And I had some advice for her!
