Summary

In today’s episode, I sit down with retired Navy SEAL and former CIA operative Michael Jaco, a veteran of 35 years in high-risk combat zones who now teaches intuition and frequency-based performance. From near-death childhood experiences to a moment in Iraq where he saw his own body after an explosion, Michael shares how faith, discipline, and the frequency of love shaped his survival. We talk about fear and anger in combat, the measurable power of vibration, and how the same principles that kept his teams alive now apply to business, health, and longevity. This is a conversation about belief, resilience, and activating your highest potential.

1:29.6	But this is the greatest nation that has ever been created and I believe that ever will be
