  • Strength Shows Emotion w/ Tony Rodriguez
    Jul 13 2026

    In this episode, Dr. John O’Connor welcomes back a familiar face and a man who brings nothing but high energy and real talk every single time he steps in front of a microphone. Tony Rodriguez. Business coach, award winning podcast host, family man, and diehard athlete.

    Tony is one of the co-hosts of Advice Unfiltered and has built a reputation for showing up authentically in everything he does. But in this episode we get a side of Tony that goes deeper than the hustle and the grind.

    Before Tony became the coach he is today, he spent years quietly battling non-epileptic blackout anxiety attacks that started when he was just a teenager. Instead of relying solely on medication, Tony was encouraged to find healthier outlets. Fitness became the foundation. Keeping his mind moving at a high frequency became the strategy. And over years of developing his own ways to cope and manage, something powerful was born.

    A coaching philosophy that is not rooted in just fitness or just business but in the real life experience of someone who has had to fight for his own mental and physical wellbeing and come out the other side with something worth sharing.

    What Tony built through Advice Unfiltered and his coaching practice is a direct result of everything he has personally been through. And this episode pulls back the curtain on all of it.

    He and Dr. O’Connor get into leadership, coaching on a national level, and what it truly means to pour into other people when you have done the hard work of pouring into yourself first.

    We talk about: 🔥 Tony Rodriguez’s journey from battling anxiety attacks to building a national coaching brand 🔥 The story behind Advice Unfiltered and the coaching service they offer 🔥 How fitness and mental discipline became the foundation of Tony’s entire philosophy 🔥 What coaching on a national level actually looks like and who it is designed for 🔥 The leadership principles Tony brings to every person he works with

    This episode is for anyone who has ever struggled quietly while still showing up loudly for the people around them. Tony’s story is proof that what you have been through is not a liability. It is your greatest asset. If you are ready for a high energy and deeply honest conversation about coaching, leadership, and life, this one is for you.

  • Trash to Billions w/Greg Lettieri
    Jun 23 2026

    In this episode, Dr. John O’Connor sits down with Greg Lettieri, CEO and co-founder of Recycle Track Systems, for one of the most unexpected and fascinating entrepreneurship stories you will hear. The title says it all. Trash to Billions.

    Greg is not your average CEO. Recognized by Goldman Sachs as one of the 100 Most Intriguing Entrepreneurs, named Ernst and Young’s Entrepreneur of the Year, and featured in the Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg Businessweek, and Forbes, Greg has taken one of the most overlooked and historically stagnant industries in the world and completely transformed it through technology, AI, and sheer relentless drive.

    Before building RTS into one of the leading waste management technology platforms in North America, Greg had to learn the hard way what it takes to disrupt an industry that nobody wanted to touch. An industry with deep roots, complex politics, and a reputation that comes with its own set of challenges that most entrepreneurs would walk away from.

    From a conversation with a neighbor that sparked an idea to building a company that now serves major organizations like the New York Mets, the Baltimore Ravens, Google, and Barclays Center, Greg’s journey is a masterclass in what happens when grit meets vision.

    And yes. This episode goes there. Including a story about a prisoner who escaped inside one of their trucks for three days and how that one incident literally rewrote state prison laws. You cannot make this stuff up.

    We talk about: 🔥 Greg Lettieri’s journey from idea to building a billion dollar industry disruptor 🔥 What it is really like to operate in one of the most complex industries in the world 🔥 The technology and AI behind Recycle Track Systems and why it is changing everything 🔥 The wild story of a prison escape inside one of their trucks that changed state law 🔥 The mindset and grind it took to build something this big from the ground up

    This episode is for anyone who has ever looked at an overlooked industry and wondered if there was a better way. Greg Lettieri found one and built an empire doing it. If you want a story about entrepreneurship, resilience, and thinking differently about what is possible, this conversation will blow your mind.

Christopher is an actor and entrepreneur who has carved his own path by refusing to follow the conventional route.

    Together they bring a perspective on entrepreneurship that goes beyond the highlight reel. The late nights, the self doubt, the moments where quitting felt easier than pushing forward, and why none of that ever stopped them.

    This episode dives into the blueprint behind building something real, what success actually looks like when the cameras are off, and the mindset required to keep going when the road gets hard.

    We talk about: 🔥 The success blueprint Tony and Chris have built their lives around 🔥 What entrepreneurship really looks like behind the scenes 🔥 The grind, the sacrifice, and the mindset required to push through 🔥 How Tony has built his brand through marketing, photography, and authenticity 🔥 What Christopher’s journey as an actor and entrepreneur has taught him about resilience
