How do you go from a 3-month premature baby with a "fighter spirit" to a US Marine, and eventually, a powerhouse CEO who turned a life-altering diagnosis into a 19-year legacy of freedom?

In this powerful episode of Eagle Freedom Presents, host Deston Rogers sits down with his dear friend and longtime colleague, Michele Sokoloff, the CEO of Ultimate Manifesto LLC. Michele’s story is the definition of the #RIOmovement: Rising above tragedy, Inspiring through leadership, and Overcoming the impossible.

In this episode, we dive deep into:

• The Marine Corps Foundation: How the "Badass Marine Triad" persona helped Michele transition from military service to becoming a top recruiter for a Fortune 100 company.

• The MS Diagnosis That Changed Everything: In 2006, Michele was told she would eventually need a wheelchair due to Multiple Sclerosis. Instead of accepting that prognosis, she used her "fighter spirit" to quit the corporate world, launch a Virtual Assistant network, and reclaim her health through lifestyle medicine.

• Overcoming Unthinkable Tragedy: Michele opens up about the loss of her daughter, Natasha, in 2017. She shares how the power of coaching—specifically her training with the Tony Robbins Academy—gave her the tools to navigate grief and keep her business thriving through the strength of her team.

• The Science of Success & Health: As a Nutrigenomics Educator, Michele explains the intersection of genetics and health habits. She shares her transformation from being overweight and sick to becoming a health coach who empowers others to optimize their cellular wellness.

• Building a Life "At Choice": Learn Michele’s philosophy on creating multiple streams of income, the importance of branding yourself, and how she built a systems-based business that allowed her to focus on her family and passion projects.

Michele’s journey from the barracks to the boardroom is a masterclass in perseverance. Whether you are a veteran looking to start a business, someone battling a health crisis, or an entrepreneur seeking more freedom, Michele’s "Ultimate Manifesto" will provide the roadmap you need to take control of your reality.
