  • Unscripted Dreams: Beyond the Blueprint #32 w/ Kenisha Johnson
    Jan 31 2025

    In this episode "The Publisher" Mr. Kelly Cole sits down with Kenisha Johnson to discuss her new best selling book Unscripted Dreams: Beyond the Blueprint “Sometimes, life doesn’t just test your strength—it demands that you redefine it." In this compelling journey through moments of survival, betrayal, and profound growth, Liberty shares her story of transformation. From lessons learned at her great-grandmother’s side to navigating the harsh realities of family, loss, and identity, she explores what it means to forge a path in the face of adversity. Her story is not just about surviving but about finding meaning in every struggle and making the choice to heal, grow, and create something meaningful from life’s chaos. Through raw and reflective storytelling, Liberty reveals how we all carry a unique strength shaped by our experiences. Whether narrowly escaping a home invasion, competing against odds in the Olympic trials, or building a supportive community, her journey reminds us that purpose is not found in a destination—it is discovered along the way. This book invites readers to see life differently, honor their resilience, and trust in the power of each choice. Liberty’s story is a testament to the power of resilience and the courage to rise above. More than just a story, it’s an invitation to live intentionally, uncover your strength, rewrite your narrative, and embrace the journey ahead.

  • From a Small Town to the Big Leagues #31 w/ Willie Green
    Nov 21 2024

    In this episode "The Publisher" Mr. Kelly Cole sits down with Willie Green to discuss his new best selling book From a Small Town to the Big Leagues.


    Willie Green is an unlikely success story. Raised in the Pauldoe Projects in Athens, Georgia in the 1960’s and 70’s he was surrounded by racism, poverty, and struggled with a severe learning disability. But he was able to overcome his circumstances to get drafted to the NFL.


    Pro Status: From a Small Town to the Big Leagues is a record of Willie Green’s life from childhood to becoming a professional athlete, businessman, and civic leader. Whether it’s facing intense racism, closing million dollar deals, opening a sports arena, or navigating political barriers—Green has stood firm by applying the foundational principles he learned as a young man.


    This book is based on real stories and experiences of Green’s distinguished life, including being raised by a strong and influential mother who was a community leader and a proud hardworking father who never learned to read. Each chapter documents a specific time in history that invites the reader into his world to engage with the story and glean lessons that are designed to encourage and empower. With a graceful and unapologetic tone, Willie provides the information, motivation, and spirit required for anyone to go from playing small to living big!

  • How a Lifestyle Reimagination Can Save Your Life #30 w/ Neal 199Guy Bendesky
    Oct 31 2024

    In this episode "The Publisher" Mr. Kelly Cole sits down with Neal 199Guy Bendesky to discuss his new best selling book Never2Late: How A Lifestyle Reimagination Can Save Your Life!


    THE JOURNEY, SHAREABLE MOMENTS AND 199GUYLIFESTYLE PLATFORM for Neal Bendesky who lost over 199 Pounds, Survived Sudden Cardiac Death and recently Beat Cancer!


    My name is Neal Bendesky and I am 199GUY. This is my story.


    I’ve written this book to tell every one of you that reads this message that it is NEVER2LATE to accomplish your wildest dreams. My dream was to live again. After all, I had one foot in the grave.


    Listen to this number. I said listen to this, 450 pounds. One step from the grave. I was not living. I was a walking dead man. In 2014, I started a wellness journey and lost over 199 pounds and reimagined my life helping me become the CEO of my life, my community, my legacy and now, my family. Included in this quick but valuable read, my fourteen chapters will recount and share the many steps taken from a person who also survived sudden cardiac death and went from the couch to completing 17 half marathons. I will also introduce you to my unique LIFESTYLE platform so that you too can be the CEO of your life. Take that first step and read the book. I look forward to hearing about your own journey. Remember, it’s NEVER2LATE.


    Quote for Bob Beaudine:

    "We all look to discover solutions to live a longer and more satisfying life. NEVER2LATE, is a real-life fable of a personal transformation journey by my dear friend Neal Bendesky and his lessons learned. It’s a step-by-step account of what worked and can be sustained if you stay on the journey."

    Bob Beaudine, world renowned motivational speaker and author of two Global best-selling books, THE POWER OF WHO and 2CHAIRS
