Sitting across from Bob Thomas and Sheila Hunt for this episode of Next Level Thinkers | A Charting A New Horizons of Brilliance felt less like hosting a podcast and more like being invited into the private architecture of two lives that have pushed past the surface of “fitness” and into something far more human. They’ve lived every angle of this work, the rise, the rupture, the rebuilding, and the conviction it takes to keep showing up when the body and the spirit are both tired.

Sheila spoke first, and she didn’t start with her IFBB Pro status or the brand she built through Body By Sheila. She started with loss, her grandmother, her marriage, her sense of stability. Most people would have folded under that season. Instead, she rebuilt her life rep by rep and prayer by prayer. Hearing her talk about how faith and discipline pulled her out of that valley reminded me why fitness has always been more than mechanics. It’s therapy with a pulse.

Then Bob stepped in with a different kind of truth. Four decades shaping an industry through clubs, corporate strategy, and now his work at NexGen Scientific have made him a force in this space, but it was his personal honesty that caught me. When he told the story of gaining seventy-five pounds on purpose just to test the GLP-1s and peptides he now teaches the world about, it wasn’t bravado. It was responsibility. A leader proving his system with his own body.

And those peptides, MOTS-c, BPC-157, GLP-1s, they aren’t trends. They’re part of a new conversation about healing, inflammation, recovery, and what’s possible when science meets intention.

What struck me most, though, wasn’t the innovation. It was the honesty. There were moments off-mic that opened doors we weren’t ready to walk through yet. Big questions. Necessary ones.

And we’re not done with them. Not even close.💯

In an age where digital noise competes with meaningful story, Next Level Thinkers: A Charting New Horizons of Brilliance offers listeners something rare, quiet conviction with a patriotic heartbeat. Zach Kepple, the guest on this revelatory episode, reminds us that legacy isn't something you stumble upon; it's something you steward.

From nightclubs to rodeo grounds, Kepple’s journey is less about entertainment and more about service, capturing the flickers of American life before they’re lost in a nation too hurried to look back. His life story, 30 years in entertainment, shaped by personal collapse, spiritual awakening, and a camera lens, is the kind of testimony that makes you sit up straighter.

The core narrative of this interview is faith in action, faith not just in God, but in people, culture, and forgotten corners of American heritage.

Zach Kepple is a trailblazer, not because he’s famous, but because he’s faithful. And in this hour-long conversation, you don’t just hear a story, you inherit one.

Listeners walk away from this episode with more than admiration, they leave with a challenge. To show up where heritage lives.

To listen. To preserve. Next Level Thinkers doesn't just elevate ideas, it documents the journey of those bold enough to follow their calling through uncertainty, spiritual drought, and cultural void.

The Zach Kepple Standard: Culture That Holds
This coming week we’re proud to welcome Zach Kepple...American Patriot, storyteller, and small-town Texan with 30+ years in entertainment, as a featured guest on Next Level Thinkers | A Charting New Horizons of Brilliance.

Zach’s mission is steady and clear: protect our history and preserve our heritage by spotlighting the people and places that keep the Western way of life—God, Country, and Family—at the center. He co-created the film Washington’s Armor and authored Prayers for Our Nation and Take The Pledge. His life’s work points in one direction: remember what’s worth keeping and pass it on.

What guides his show is a simple, working code:

Show up where the work is done.

Keep people whole and let them decide how they’re known.

Name what’s on the line, tie it to where it came from, and show who it helps, so belonging is visible.

That code fits the mission of Next Level Thinkers: map how communities build themselves, honestly, locally, and over time. From The Small Town America Podcast to his travel vlog, Zach records the grit and purpose of real places, arenas and fairgrounds, main streets and shop floors, where commitment takes shape and character is taught.

This episode sits with the person behind that work: his faith, his habits, and the choices that shape his lens. How values stay present without turning into slogans. How heritage lives in the present tense. How a clear standard becomes culture you can see.

In studio from Frisco, Texas, stay tuned for the release.

The Zach Kepple Method for Culture That Lasts-
We’re thrilled to announce Zach Kepple, American Patriot, storyteller, and small-town Texan with 30+ years in entertainment, as a featured guest on an upcoming episode of Next Level Thinkers | A Charting New Horizons of Brilliance.

Zach's mission is steady and clear: protect our history and preserve our heritage by spotlighting the people and places that keep the Western way of life, God, Country, and Family, at the center. Kepple is the co-creator of the film Washington’s Armor and the author of Prayers for Our Nation and Take The Pledge.

Kepple’s method functions as a usable blueprint for turning story into culture: put the camera where the work happens, let people keep their dignity, and make what’s on the line tangible, connect it to heritage, and show who it serves, so belonging is visible.

That approach aligns directly with Next Level Thinkers mission: map how communities actually build themselves, one honest scene at a time.

From his Small Town America Podcast to his travel vlog, Kepple documents the grit and purpose of real places, arenas and fairgrounds, main streets and shop floors, where commitment takes shape.

In this conversation, we’ll examine the craft choices behind that lens: how faith and family stay present without cliché, how heritage can be modern without losing its roots, and how local voices turn into culture you can see.

We look forward to sharing in a real grounded conversation with the REAL ONE, Zach Kepple.

Jennifer Achu | Presence, Purpose, and the Power of Building Ecosystems

There are leaders who build careers, and there are leaders who build legacies. Jennifer Achu has done both, while weaving her identity as a nurse, realtor, founder, and civic advocate into a singular story of purpose.

For 18 years, Jennifer lived at the bedside of patients as a registered nurse. Those years were less about medicine than about presence, about learning how to listen, how to stand steady in moments of fear, and how to carry compassion into action. When her journey has expanded into real estate, those same qualities help families find not just a house but a place to anchor their lives.

Today, Jennifer’s influence stretches far beyond her professional titles. Through the J.Achu Foundation, she creates pathways in education, healthcare, and community development. Through initiatives like the Miss Frisco Pageant and Miss Africa Texas Scholarship Pageants, she has reshaped pageantry into a platform for scholarships, leadership, and visibility for women, particularly young women of African heritage. And through J.Achu Ventures, she helps small businesses and entrepreneurs build brands that are credible, resilient, and community-minded.

In the City of Frisco, she serves on boards and committees that shape everything from education to environmental stewardship, embedding her fingerprints in the very systems that form the city’s future. On a global stage, her media and cultural work amplify African voices and build creative economies for youth.

Jennifer Achu doesn’t just hold roles, she builds ecosystems. Her story embodies what Next Level Thinkers was created to highlight: brilliance as the integration of spirit, intellect, and action.

We are proud to announce that Jennifer Achu has been selected to be a featured guest on an upcoming episode of Next Level Thinkers | A Charting New Horizons of Brilliance Podcast.

Her episode will be a reminder that success is not the end of the story. It is the beginning point for building futures, nurturing voices, and creating spaces where others can achieve success.

Join us as we sit down with Jennifer to explore her journey, her vision, and the cultural frameworks she continues to create.

Happy to announce we have selected my next guest.

When "preach" loses its "P," it becomes "reach"; without reaching each other, there's no true message. It's a responsibility to teach and embody those teachings. Faith and fitness must align—a call to care for the body, the temple, in service.

Next Level Thinkers -

Next Level Thinkers understand that their courage and strength comes from pushing through the hard times and that everything they are going through in their life’s journey has helped them reach another level of consciousness and proficiency. Next Level Thinkers have learned to take their consciousness into an evolutionary zone in how they live their lives, in what they create and in what they do. The world lights up and procreates new forms of how exercise the mind, body and spirit. For Next Level Thinkers, periods of stagnation are unacceptable, for they know that they are surrounded around people who are dependent on them to lead. With a focus of consistency, this mastery level of thinking and being, inspires, educates and motivates others to realize that every goal is within their reach.

It’s in their knowingness that they have leveled up and now attract others to work together to grow beyond the constructs and blocks we may have with inside ourselves. Their long lasting imprint and body of work is what we will be discussing in this 7 Part Video Series entitled, Next Level Thinkers. We hope you will enjoy our discussion.
