Bridging Heritage and Healing: Evely Raudmets on Empowering Veterans Through Transformation and Art
Dive headfirst into the remarkable fusion of technology, leadership, and personal triumphs as we welcome Evely Raudmets to our latest podcast episode. Evely, a neuro-encoding coach and mechanical engineer, brings a unique perspective on empowering tech leaders through her compelling approach to self-mastery. Her stories, deeply rooted in her Estonian heritage, bridge the gap between the past and present, revealing the lasting impact of military legacy on personal growth—something she intimately understands through her family's experiences.
The resilience of the human spirit is at the core of Evely's grandfather's wartime tales—a World War II veteran who faced the unimaginable. His harrowing escape from the clutches of war, inventive survival tactics, and eventual capture that led to a Siberian concentration camp where he found love, all paint a vivid picture of endurance and hope. Evely's recount of these events offers listeners a raw look at survival and the strength required to forge ahead despite adversity.
In this heartfelt conversation, we also explore the restorative power of art and the pivotal role of camaraderie in the healing process for veterans. Evely shares her personal stories of how hobbies and creative expression served as a lifeline through trauma for her family members. And for those transitioning to civilian life, Evely imparts practical tools and insights on reshaping negative thoughts and embracing positivity. These strategies are not only transformative for veterans and their families but for anyone seeking to empower their thoughts and shape a hopeful reality.

tech leaders to self-mastery leader, teaches or guides, I should say tech leaders to self-mastery. 00:01:07.102 --> 00:01:11.311 <v Michael Cole>She's a peak performance specialist, elite neuro-encoding coach and speaker, and our guest today. 00:01:11.311 --> 00:01:15.384 <v Michael Cole>So I'm super happy to be on, Evely, welcome. 00:01:17.027 --> 00:01:19.230 <v Evely Raudmets>Hello Michael, thank you for having me on here. 00:01:19.230 --> 00:01:23.203 <v Evely Raudmets>Thank you for inviting me, and you pronounce my name really good. 00:01:23.945 --> 00:01:24.266 <v Michael Cole>Yes. 00:01:24.266 --> 00:01:31.626 <v Michael Cole>So let's just tell the story, let's get it out there so you know all of my guests. 00:01:31.626 --> 00:01:35.962 <v Michael Cole>I take it very serious that I pronounce their name as close as possible or correctly. 00:01:35.962 --> 00:01:49.049 <v Michael Cole>So Evely's has been more of a challenge, which is awesome, because I literally was conditioning myself today to just say it and just celebrate, and it all worked out well. 00:01:49.049 --> 00:01:51.204 <v Michael Cole>Thank you, yeah, it was cool. 00:01:51.204 --> 00:02:01.189 <v Michael Cole>So, Evely, I just want to announce right now to everybody and our listening audience and people who are going to listen soon we are international. 00:02:01.189 --> 00:02:09.949 <v Michael Cole>Now Evely is from Estonia and you know, let's celebrate that, yeah, so thank you for bringing that to our world. 00:02:09.949 --> 00:02:13.848 <v Michael Cole>So, Evely, tell us a little bit about yourself. 00:02:13.848 --> 00:02:16.758 <v Michael Cole>I mean, I know you, but tell us you know. 00:02:16.758 --> 00:02:19.689 <v Michael Cole>Our guests and people listening later know more about you. 00:02:21.260 --> 00:02:33.652 <v Evely Raudmets>So, yeah, as you said, I am a coach and I do focus on tech leaders, I think mostly because by formal education, I'm a mechanical engineer and tech is my world. 00:02:33.652 --> 00:02:40.813 <v Evely Raudmets>So from there as I moved on to understanding how humans work and how to help and guide humans, that's my true calling. 00:02:40.813 --> 00:02:45.691 <v Evely Raudmets>Well then I put the two worlds together tech and humans and leadership. 00:02:45.691 --> 00:02:48.965 <v Evely Raudmets>And here here I am, a coach for tech leaders. 00:02:48.965 --> 00:02:53.355 <v Evely Raudmets>Fantastic and uh for this show. 00:02:53.355 --> 00:02:57.743 <v Evely Raudmets>I am not a veteran, however. 00:02:57.743 --> 00:03:06.276 <v Evely Raudmets>My family, many of my family members are, and my dad and my grandfather, so I've learned a lot from them. 00:03:06.276 --> 00:03:08.324 <v Evely Raudmets>And here I am, yeah. 00:03:08.625 --> 00:03:25.590 <v Michael Cole>So I know again I'm going to tell another little story, but a couple of weeks ago we were on a training with someone in the Neuroencoding Institute and Evely was saying, yeah, she's gathering stories and talking to her family, so I was really excited that well, you put the effort into it, obviously, which is awesome. 00:03:25.590 --> 00:03:35.025 <v Michael Cole>I wouldn't expect anything less from you, but just that you know you were excited about being on here and you know creating a value, giving value, so we appreciate it. 00:03:35.941 --> 00:03:47.055 <v Evely Raudmets>You don't even know what a beautiful gift you gave me, because I would not have thought about talking to my father like that and gathering those stories. 00:03:47.055 --> 00:03:53.985 <v Evely Raudmets>So I'm not going to cry, but like that brought us closer and so thank you. 00:03:53.985 --> 00:03:58.352 <v Evely Raudmets>This little nudge, it had a cascading effect. 00:03:58.920 --> 00:03:59.844 <v Michael Cole>That is so fantastic. 00:03:59.844 --> 00:04:01.984 <v Michael Cole>I literally got chills, lady. 00:04:01.984 --> 00:04:05.782 <v Michael Cole>Thank you, yeah, that's fantastic. 00:04:05.782 --> 00:04:26.759 <v Michael Cole>It's amazing how little things that come into our lives, open up these other doors and create gifts, so I'm happy it worked out for both of us with it. 00:04:26.759 --> 00:04:29.005 <v Michael Cole>If you're good with it, let's talk about the military family. 00:04:29.005 --> 00:04:33.177 <v Michael Cole>I know you've got some crazy stories and some interesting stories already that we heard off camera, so let's share, if you will. 00:04:33.177 --> 00:04:36.927 <v Michael Cole>So your father was in the army, I believe. 00:04:37.788 --> 00:04:41.180 <v Evely Raudmets>Yeah he was in the army, but my grandfather was in World War II. 00:04:41.961 --> 00:04:43.245 <v Michael Cole>Wow, wow. 00:04:43.245 --> 00:04:48.173 <v Michael Cole>So feel free just to share a story, let's go. 00:04:48.834 --> 00:04:49.714 <v Evely Raudmets>Yes, Dive in. 00:04:49.714 --> 00:04:51.139 <v Evely Raudmets>So I have two stories. 00:04:51.139 --> 00:04:56.132 <v Evely Raudmets>One is a bit of a humorous one and another one is a serious one. 00:04:57.259 --> 00:04:59.509 <v Michael Cole>So my dad. 00:04:59.509 --> 00:05:01.245 <v Michael Cole>We dont do funny here, Evely. 00:05:01.987 --> 00:05:04.569 <v Evely Raudmets>I know I'm going to try to keep it really serious. 00:05:04.569 --> 00:05:05.201 <v Evely Raudmets>You know me. 00:05:05.201 --> 00:05:05.434 <v Evely Raudmets>We don't, dolyn. 00:05:05.384 --> 00:05:06.255 <v Michael Cole>I know I'm going to try to keep it really serious. 00:05:06.255 --> 00:05:09.288 <v Michael Cole>You know me, we don't do jokes, it just doesn't happen. 00:05:09.307 --> 00:05:12.567 <v Evely Raudmets>No, no, no, no, it's serious business, I know. 00:05:12.567 --> 00:05:15.182 <v Evely Raudmets>So. 00:05:15.182 --> 00:05:23.944 <v Evely Raudmets>My grandfather was really keen on getting into the army when he was, I think, maybe 16 or 17 already, and he did. 00:05:23.944 --> 00:05:34.307 <v Evely Raudmets>He managed to wiggle his way there somehow and got to join the top generals and people who led the army when the World War broke out, right. 00:05:34.307 --> 00:05:53.173 <v Evely Raudmets>So he, when basically here in Estonia the German army and the Russian army met, oh, head on, and at first everyone was on the German side here because Russia is our neighbor. 00:05:53.173 --> 00:06:01.718 <v Evely Raudmets>And when they came in my grandfather it was like Russian news, it just happened, like it usually just happens. 00:06:01.718 --> 00:06:05.045 <v Evely Raudmets>You never know beforehand, usually unless you're at the top. 00:06:05.045 --> 00:06:23.004 <v Evely Raudmets>But so, uh, he got the news and when the bombing started and, like he, where he was in the artillery where all the like explosives were right when they started, so he was hiding in that room and everything was fire, gunfire, everything. 00:06:23.004 --> 00:06:26.072 <v Evely Raudmets>He was sitting with bombs and everything and everything was fire gunfire everything. 00:06:26.093 --> 00:06:27.196 <v Michael Cole>He was sitting with bombs and everything. 00:06:27.196 --> 00:06:28.639 <v Michael Cole>Okay, I don't know, I'd want to be the one there. 00:06:28.639 --> 00:06:31.107 <v Michael Cole>I don't think I'd want to be in there. 00:06:32.961 --> 00:06:41.887 <v Evely Raudmets>But somehow he managed his way out and took this I don't know how you call it rubber boats, hopped on a river with two guys. 00:06:41.887 --> 00:06:42.964 <v Evely Raudmets>Everyone got shot. 00:06:42.964 --> 00:06:43.709 <v Evely Raudmets>Somehow he survived. 00:06:43.709 --> 00:06:44.432 <v Evely Raudmets>And so he went with two guys. 00:06:44.432 --> 00:06:45.156 <v Evely Raudmets>Everyone got shocked. 00:06:45.177 --> 00:06:45.720 <v Michael Cole>Somehow he survived, oh wow. 00:06:46.461 --> 00:06:58.870 <v Evely Raudmets>And so he went down the river and he found this German uniform, and the adventure lasted a couple of days. 00:06:58.870 --> 00:07:03.468 <v Evely Raudmets>He was really hungry, starving, cold, everything, and then he had enough. 00:07:03.468 --> 00:07:15.711 <v Evely Raudmets>He was so pissed at the situation and hungry that he marched into the German camp where all the military personnel were. 00:07:16.072 --> 00:07:28.829 <v Evely Raudmets>With the uniform yes, with the fake uniform that he found, marched in there, took a seat in the cafeteria, ate his stomach full, just looked at everyone as he was one of them. 00:07:28.829 --> 00:07:32.468 <v Evely Raudmets>I don't know how long he was able to be there or sit there. 00:07:32.468 --> 00:07:33.865 <v Evely Raudmets>That part is missing. 00:07:33.865 --> 00:07:37.348 <v Evely Raudmets>But finally someone started asking, like who are you? 00:07:37.348 --> 00:07:38.271 <v Evely Raudmets>What are you doing here? 00:07:38.271 --> 00:07:40.065 <v Evely Raudmets>And then they found out. 00:07:40.065 --> 00:07:46.107 <v Evely Raudmets>Well, maybe a few words, but like the accent and everything he tried to like talk his way. 00:07:46.107 --> 00:07:49.283 <v Evely Raudmets>He tried to like talk his way out of it or wiggle his way out of it, but he failed. 00:07:49.283 --> 00:07:51.247 <v Evely Raudmets>So they started shooting at him. 00:07:51.247 --> 00:07:54.682 <v Evely Raudmets>And the way he escaped, do you know? 00:07:54.682 --> 00:08:02.002 <v Evely Raudmets>Uh, in farmhouses, like old ones, there are these toilets that are like dry toilets with just a hole in them. 00:08:02.002 --> 00:08:09.218 <v Evely Raudmets>So he jumped into this hole, somehow managed through it and like dug his way through shit literally and escaped. 00:08:09.218 --> 00:08:11.704 <v Evely Raudmets>They didn't follow him that way. 00:08:11.704 --> 00:08:15.093 <v Evely Raudmets>No shit, no shit. 00:08:15.093 --> 00:08:19.295 <v Evely Raudmets>That was the crazy story. 00:08:21.247 --> 00:08:25.295 <v Michael Cole>Imagine the that I'm sure he discussed it Gunfire. 00:08:25.355 --> 00:08:26.778 <v Evely Raudmets>Yeah, he managed bullets. 00:08:27.305 --> 00:08:30.892 <v Michael Cole>Imagine just the adrenaline. 00:08:30.892 --> 00:08:35.067 <v Michael Cole>Everything had been going through his mind and did he go. 00:08:35.067 --> 00:08:41.469 <v Michael Cole>I kind of deserve this For going in there and taking the food and doing all this. 00:08:41.469 --> 00:08:43.672 <v Michael Cole>I mean he earned a little bit. 00:08:44.625 --> 00:08:50.558 <v Evely Raudmets>Yeah, yeah, yeah, but he managed to survive the gunfire and the shit Twice, twice. 00:08:50.558 --> 00:08:53.371 <v Evely Raudmets>Well, he didn't get lucky. 00:08:53.371 --> 00:09:02.735 <v Evely Raudmets>He didn't get lucky afterwards, because the Russians got him then and deported him to the Siberian concentration camps. 00:09:02.735 --> 00:09:06.730 <v Evely Raudmets>Wow, and they're like. 00:09:06.730 --> 00:09:15.073 <v Evely Raudmets>I'm not going to go into those brutal stories unless you want me to, but like you know, maybe a little would be okay. 00:09:15.245 --> 00:09:16.772 <v Michael Cole>We don't want to get too crazy. 00:09:16.772 --> 00:09:29.586 <v Michael Cole>Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, but yeah, I mean I, I'm curious, you know what, what he shared as far as um, I mean food, or you know any, any little thing I think would be great to share. 00:09:29.767 --> 00:09:32.370 <v Evely Raudmets>Yes, yeah, we're migrated here. 00:09:32.389 --> 00:09:33.791 <v Michael Cole>Evely we're migrated here,. 00:09:33.791 --> 00:09:36.514 <v Michael Cole>We're migrated, we're not, you know Okay. 00:09:36.514 --> 00:09:38.054 <v Michael Cole>We're migrated, we're migrated. 00:09:38.956 --> 00:09:51.148 <v Evely Raudmets>Okay, so he did see pretty and normally you do see things there, right, and he shared. 00:09:51.148 --> 00:09:53.535 <v Evely Raudmets>But he met the love of his life there in the concentration camp. 00:09:53.535 --> 00:09:55.241 <v Evely Raudmets>My grandma was deported from mountains of Ukraine. 00:09:55.241 --> 00:09:58.120 <v Evely Raudmets>She did like anti-war posters and that's why she was deported to mountains of Ukraine. 00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:01.594 <v Evely Raudmets>She did like anti-war posters and that's why she was deported to the concentration camp. 00:10:01.594 --> 00:10:03.029 <v Evely Raudmets>So they met there. 00:10:03.826 --> 00:10:08.793 <v Evely Raudmets>And my dad was born there and it was rough. 00:10:08.793 --> 00:10:14.312 <v Evely Raudmets>And when you ask like because before you invited me here, you asked like were there any tips? 00:10:14.312 --> 00:10:16.065 <v Evely Raudmets>Like how do they manage afterwards? 00:10:16.065 --> 00:10:17.946 <v Evely Raudmets>Or like how did they even survive? 00:10:17.946 --> 00:10:29.374 <v Evely Raudmets>Yes, so that was like I asked and my dad shared, like they were put to work there and there was this um, bricks, they, you know they burn bricks to make them stronger. 00:10:30.174 --> 00:10:40.980 <v Evely Raudmets>So their job was to take the bricks out of the fire, you know, as they were burnt, but the gloves wore off, like in a few days, oh, I'm sure. 00:10:40.980 --> 00:10:49.735 <v Evely Raudmets>And they had to work, I don't know months, definitely, if not a year or more, and in like five or few days the gloves wore off. 00:10:49.735 --> 00:10:57.889 <v Evely Raudmets>So he had to take the bricks from the burning fire with his hands, wow, and they didn't feed them. 00:10:57.889 --> 00:11:10.190 <v Evely Raudmets>And the first checkpoint to get to the medical center was when you had no flesh on your ass, basically anymore, not fat, but you, like your butt was all bone. 00:11:10.190 --> 00:11:28.158 <v Evely Raudmets>So then they took him there and like weighed him and he weighed 38 kilograms, so I don't know, it's like 70 pounds okay, wow so and I asked a question when he was in there and he was dealing with all this stuff. 00:11:28.304 --> 00:11:31.631 <v Michael Cole>Obviously he found the love of his you know life, which is fantastic. 00:11:31.631 --> 00:11:34.118 <v Michael Cole>What, what kept him going? 00:11:34.118 --> 00:11:34.357 <v Michael Cole>What? 00:11:35.187 --> 00:11:36.773 <v Evely Raudmets>that's my story will get there. 00:11:37.214 --> 00:11:39.188 <v Michael Cole>Okay, you're reading my mind. 00:11:39.210 --> 00:11:45.629 <v Evely Raudmets>It's awesome, yeah, and that really like hit me and that was a good lesson for me. 00:11:45.629 --> 00:11:49.217 <v Evely Raudmets>Okay, I'm just going to tell. 00:11:49.217 --> 00:12:03.308 <v Evely Raudmets>So, when he stood there, the thought running through his mind was I'm going to run towards the soldiers so they would shoot me Because I can't take it anymore. 00:12:03.308 --> 00:12:03.629 <v Evely Raudmets>Like can you? 00:12:03.629 --> 00:12:04.292 <v Evely Raudmets>Like I can't even imagine. 00:12:04.292 --> 00:12:05.677 <v Evely Raudmets>Just your fingers are burned to the bone and you just keep going. 00:12:05.677 --> 00:12:07.705 <v Evely Raudmets>We're weighing like 70 pounds, right? 00:12:08.125 --> 00:12:09.467 <v Michael Cole>yeah, absolutely I can't. 00:12:09.488 --> 00:12:22.277 <v Evely Raudmets>And then, go ahead please the only thing that stopped him from running them to them, so they would shoot him and he said I'm going to survive to tell everyone what went down here. 00:12:22.277 --> 00:12:24.500 <v Evely Raudmets>Wow. 00:12:24.500 --> 00:12:34.139 <v Evely Raudmets>And when he came back, he wrote books and memoirs that were this thick a couple of them. 00:12:34.139 --> 00:12:51.595 <v Evely Raudmets>I remember him when I was a kid I was like five or six years old when I stayed with him and I saw him just behind the typewriter writing and drawing and wow that's how he survived, that was his reason, and he did research there. 00:12:51.634 --> 00:12:56.794 <v Evely Raudmets>He snuck into places he shouldn't have to get more like of the of what was really going on. 00:12:57.606 --> 00:12:58.792 <v Speaker 1>He was a little bit of a friend of the book. 00:12:59.326 --> 00:13:07.774 <v Evely Raudmets>Oh yeah, he's like, yeah Crazy, like I don't even know the word, and then he wrote about it. 00:13:09.184 --> 00:13:11.788 <v Michael Cole>So are those books. 00:13:11.788 --> 00:13:13.693 <v Michael Cole>What language are those books in? 00:13:13.693 --> 00:13:17.831 <v Michael Cole>I'd love to be able to get a hold of one if I could find one in English. 00:13:18.894 --> 00:13:27.855 <v Evely Raudmets>Not in English, they're in Estonian still and not officially published Like our family had them, some of them my dad sadly lost. 00:13:28.458 --> 00:13:28.740 <v Michael Cole>Wow. 00:13:29.162 --> 00:13:31.753 <v Evely Raudmets>It'll happen, but, like most are still there. 00:13:33.086 --> 00:13:48.677 <v Michael Cole>And yeah, but it's yeah, so you'll translate one for me, oh, sure, sure, oh, that those would be amazing to read, those would be amazing to read. 00:13:48.677 --> 00:13:50.679 <v Michael Cole>Wow, yeah, good stuff. 00:13:51.826 --> 00:13:58.097 <v Evely Raudmets>So yeah, please yeah, yeah, so the the takeaway was like when you read Viktor Frankl's. 00:13:58.097 --> 00:14:10.998 <v Evely Raudmets>That amazed me, because when you read Viktor Frankl's A Man's Search for Meaning the same point is there and it was curious like to learn that it repeats itself. 00:14:10.998 --> 00:14:14.293 <v Evely Raudmets>So beauty is to be found everywhere. 00:14:14.293 --> 00:14:15.316 <v Evely Raudmets>Right and meaning. 00:14:16.865 --> 00:14:22.216 <v Michael Cole>Yeah, and I find that with working with veterans and their families, you know the stories. 00:14:22.216 --> 00:14:23.938 <v Michael Cole>A lot of them are very similar. 00:14:23.938 --> 00:14:25.628 <v Michael Cole>Their struggles are very similar. 00:14:25.628 --> 00:14:29.476 <v Michael Cole>It's how it's generally how people deal with it. 00:14:29.476 --> 00:14:33.629 <v Michael Cole>Right, it's their thoughts or their reality. 00:14:33.710 --> 00:14:34.431 <v Speaker 1>Exactly. 00:14:34.650 --> 00:14:47.017 <v Michael Cole>Yeah, so it's really, really even back then to see the repeated history, if you will, for them. 00:14:47.017 --> 00:14:49.113 <v Michael Cole>So very cool stories, wow. 00:14:49.113 --> 00:14:51.251 <v Michael Cole>I don't even know where to go from that one. 00:14:52.445 --> 00:14:55.716 <v Evely Raudmets>So I'm just going to take you onward. 00:14:56.245 --> 00:14:59.576 <v Michael Cole>I was hoping you were going to say that, because you said you had multiple stories, so go. 00:15:00.905 --> 00:15:05.044 <v Evely Raudmets>But to build on this one, like I love like the thoughts create your reality. 00:15:05.044 --> 00:15:12.519 <v Evely Raudmets>And I have a saying we all live in separate realities that are created by the filter of our thoughts Every day. 00:15:12.519 --> 00:15:18.398 <v Evely Raudmets>And when you really get it like you, really it hits you, you can like start creating and choosing the thoughts. 00:15:18.398 --> 00:15:20.650 <v Evely Raudmets>Yeah, where focus goes right. 00:15:21.352 --> 00:15:21.774 <v Michael Cole>Absolutely. 00:15:22.586 --> 00:15:42.352 <v Evely Raudmets>So my dad was born there and when my dad was two years old, my grandma died at giving birth to the second child and they well, they took the life of the child that was born as well, because the mom died and my grandfather heard the cries but they denied it. 00:15:42.352 --> 00:15:56.832 <v Evely Raudmets>So somehow after that he was able to make it back here, but what he did is he was like, since he was like sneaky and wanted to research things, they picked it up there and he started. 00:15:56.832 --> 00:16:09.857 <v Evely Raudmets>He was able to somehow attend technical university there or a school, technical school and I saw his drawings like nowadays you have like 3d modeling and all the cat like drawings, absolutely. 00:16:09.857 --> 00:16:27.947 <v Evely Raudmets>But I saw like his drawings like you, you do the you know like a building, house stories or machine drawings, and when they, when he folded them open, they were like I don't know two foot times two foot or it's insane with pencil drawn. 00:16:28.629 --> 00:16:35.120 <v Michael Cole>Yeah, so he went to uh school in in russia then in the concentration camp. 00:16:35.159 --> 00:16:36.067 <v Evely Raudmets>Yeah, there was some school. 00:16:36.067 --> 00:16:40.395 <v Evely Raudmets>They needed personnel apparently after the brick thing, so they yeah. 00:16:42.548 --> 00:16:45.054 <v Michael Cole>Wow, I like this guy, I like that man. 00:16:48.354 --> 00:16:49.144 <v Evely Raudmets>Yeah, he was. 00:16:49.144 --> 00:16:50.650 <v Evely Raudmets>Wow, he was a character. 00:16:52.028 --> 00:16:53.889 <v Michael Cole>Yeah, I'm sure Is he still alive. 00:16:53.889 --> 00:16:54.772 <v Michael Cole>Just out of curiosity. 00:16:55.113 --> 00:16:57.530 <v Evely Raudmets>No, no, he died when I was. 00:16:57.530 --> 00:16:59.570 <v Evely Raudmets>I think I was six or seven years old. 00:16:59.850 --> 00:17:04.653 <v Michael Cole>So these stories are coming, then, from your dad. 00:17:05.476 --> 00:17:10.806 <v Evely Raudmets>Yeah, because I remember when I was a kid, my dad and grandfather used to smoke on the balcony and tell stories. 00:17:11.446 --> 00:17:13.349 <v Michael Cole>Oh wow, There'll be a fly on that wall. 00:17:14.972 --> 00:17:16.315 <v Evely Raudmets>Oh yeah, Wow. 00:17:16.494 --> 00:17:19.099 <v Michael Cole>Very, yeah, wow, very, very cool. 00:17:19.099 --> 00:17:24.396 <v Michael Cole>So before I even do, you have more stories. 00:17:25.865 --> 00:17:27.431 <v Evely Raudmets>Well, my dad had some as well. 00:17:27.431 --> 00:17:28.555 <v Evely Raudmets>Well, let's go. 00:17:28.555 --> 00:17:32.154 <v Evely Raudmets>Well, my dad is similar character. 00:17:32.154 --> 00:17:36.834 <v Evely Raudmets>The things he did, like the same way he got, like in the army. 00:17:36.834 --> 00:17:39.419 <v Evely Raudmets>He was like you had no choice. 00:17:39.419 --> 00:17:52.136 <v Evely Raudmets>He was taken to the Russian army and the things he saw and beatings and everything, and he just snuck away, snuck away, researched things like snuck to find out what was really going on. 00:17:52.136 --> 00:17:57.236 <v Evely Raudmets>And it's a similar thing. 00:17:57.236 --> 00:18:28.334 <v Evely Raudmets>Like he was like something was going on and he also took someone's clothing maybe he learned from grandfather, I don't know and marched to a meeting of something some sorts, offering a deal to draw something, some plans or something, and basically talked his way into becoming the military's artist who would draw bridges and plans and schemes, so he wouldn't have to do the things he didn't want to do. 00:18:31.006 --> 00:18:31.910 <v Michael Cole>I'm thinking movie. 00:18:31.910 --> 00:18:33.114 <v Michael Cole>I'm thinking movie. 00:18:34.684 --> 00:18:35.891 <v Evely Raudmets>I'm thinking I need to ask him more and learn. 00:18:35.891 --> 00:18:37.057 <v Evely Raudmets>Please can we just get on a Zoom call and do this? 00:18:37.076 --> 00:18:38.403 <v Michael Cole>I'm thinking movie, I'm thinking I need to ask him more and learn. 00:18:38.403 --> 00:18:40.608 <v Michael Cole>Please Can we just get on a Zoom call and do this? 00:18:40.608 --> 00:18:44.617 <v Michael Cole>Wow, wow, it's cool. 00:18:44.617 --> 00:18:51.597 <v Michael Cole>Yeah, so you're saying just thinking outside the box and doing these kinds of things just kind of runs in the family. 00:18:51.597 --> 00:18:52.098 <v Michael Cole>It sounds like. 00:18:53.566 --> 00:18:54.470 <v Evely Raudmets>Well, we'll see. 00:18:55.885 --> 00:18:58.508 <v Michael Cole>I think it already does. 00:18:59.048 --> 00:19:00.747 <v Evely Raudmets>Mastering thoughts, mastering thoughts. 00:19:00.747 --> 00:19:03.012 <v Evely Raudmets>Yeah, say that again, I apologize. 00:19:03.012 --> 00:19:04.355 <v Evely Raudmets>Mastering thoughts. 00:19:04.897 --> 00:19:07.343 <v Michael Cole>Oh yes, absolutely, Absolutely so. 00:19:07.343 --> 00:19:12.301 <v Michael Cole>So they, they kind of went before again. 00:19:12.301 --> 00:19:14.410 <v Michael Cole>Sorry, I don't want to, I don't, I do not want to stop. 00:19:14.410 --> 00:19:17.976 <v Michael Cole>Are there more stories? 00:19:18.817 --> 00:19:22.865 <v Evely Raudmets>Not to come to mind right now, not relevant ones to ask. 00:19:24.090 --> 00:19:24.330 <v Michael Cole>Awesome. 00:19:24.330 --> 00:19:26.597 <v Michael Cole>Thank you first of all for to. 00:19:26.597 --> 00:19:39.160 <v Michael Cole>I know it's a blessing for you, but you won't even know how big a blessing it is for me and and I mean people are going crazy on the on the chat, so, um, it's fantastic, amazing story. 00:19:39.160 --> 00:19:39.721 <v Michael Cole>So, thank you. 00:19:39.721 --> 00:19:50.233 <v Michael Cole>I'm honored you took the time to do that um for for us and obviously it's awesome, it was for you as well, so thank you yeah thank you too, so you're very welcome. 00:19:50.915 --> 00:19:53.922 <v Michael Cole>So we'll have you back on next week. 00:19:53.922 --> 00:19:54.644 <v Michael Cole>Go talk to dad. 00:19:54.644 --> 00:20:01.538 <v Michael Cole>So success stories are really important for us. 00:20:01.538 --> 00:20:05.238 <v Michael Cole>You know, coming out of the military that's really what this show is about and what I work towards. 00:20:05.238 --> 00:20:05.500 <v Michael Cole>You know. 00:20:05.500 --> 00:20:08.894 <v Michael Cole>For out of the military, that's really what this show is about and what I work towards. 00:20:08.894 --> 00:20:10.317 <v Michael Cole>You know for what I'm doing. 00:20:10.657 --> 00:20:23.413 <v Michael Cole>It's really important, that transition and finding those ways to take the bad and turn them into the good right, the meaning that we give them right Our thoughts. 00:20:23.413 --> 00:20:27.502 <v Michael Cole>So what are some of the takeaways that you had from talking to? 00:20:27.502 --> 00:20:35.494 <v Michael Cole>Well, I'll even go with your clients, your dad, of course, that he really worked with. 00:20:35.494 --> 00:20:37.800 <v Michael Cole>That got him to that next level. 00:20:37.800 --> 00:20:43.182 <v Michael Cole>Besides, obviously, I'm going to expose all of this, which was amazing. 00:20:43.201 --> 00:20:43.402 <v Evely Raudmets>Mm-hmm. 00:20:43.402 --> 00:20:59.122 <v Evely Raudmets>So for my grandfather it was the writing and the art, and what he started doing he's you find something for your soul is what I've learned is one of those. 00:20:59.122 --> 00:21:11.133 <v Evely Raudmets>So he started collecting old stamps, coins, and philatelia is I don't know how it's in English like collecting things coins and philatelia is I don't know how it's in english like collecting things. 00:21:11.133 --> 00:21:17.823 <v Evely Raudmets>Yeah, he had the biggest collections of old coins and stamps in estonia that was sold at an auction later on. 00:21:17.823 --> 00:21:27.654 <v Evely Raudmets>So he he dedicated his life to writing, writing about what, making sure in his own way it would never get repeated again. 00:21:27.654 --> 00:21:30.016 <v Evely Raudmets>So that gave the pain meaning. 00:21:30.738 --> 00:21:31.038 <v Michael Cole>Yeah. 00:21:31.219 --> 00:21:31.480 <v Evely Raudmets>Right. 00:21:32.040 --> 00:21:32.261 <v Michael Cole>Yeah. 00:21:32.911 --> 00:21:35.901 <v Evely Raudmets>And then drawing. 00:21:35.901 --> 00:21:40.455 <v Evely Raudmets>I think that was for his soul, yeah, the art, the beauty of it. 00:21:40.455 --> 00:21:41.816 <v Evely Raudmets>And then collecting things. 00:21:41.816 --> 00:21:49.112 <v Evely Raudmets>I think, since he was a researcher, right, he liked to search for things and collect and, uh, yeah, and create it. 00:21:49.593 --> 00:21:58.497 <v Michael Cole>Yeah, absolutely fits for for, uh, that model of person, obviously and so the, the, the things that he collected? 00:21:58.497 --> 00:22:02.084 <v Michael Cole>Uh, I heard you say it was sold at auction, was that? 00:22:02.084 --> 00:22:06.061 <v Michael Cole>It was sold he got it after his death. 00:22:06.442 --> 00:22:27.160 <v Evely Raudmets>Oh god, they wanted, like the, the state, the country wanted it for itself and, uh, because he had a big safe in the house which I broke my leg to when I was five years old because I was climbing in and I got stuck behind the wheel because it had a big wheel on it no, you're not adventurous oh, I am, yes, I, yes, I am, I am All the stories. 00:22:27.861 --> 00:22:30.905 <v Evely Raudmets>But my dad didn't have it so easy. 00:22:30.905 --> 00:22:39.680 <v Evely Raudmets>My dad became an alcoholic and it was rough for him, the health and everything. 00:22:39.680 --> 00:22:43.724 <v Evely Raudmets>And he's still part of the AA to this day. 00:22:43.724 --> 00:22:54.676 <v Evely Raudmets>Right, yeah, but what I saw was the same thing, like nature going to nature, and my dad started painting. 00:22:54.676 --> 00:23:06.579 <v Evely Raudmets>Oh great, like oil painting and stuff, and I think he dedicated to the arts and crafting things with his hands. 00:23:06.579 --> 00:23:16.003 <v Evely Raudmets>Because when we know our thoughts and stuff, when you do something like painting, it's a form of meditation really. 00:23:16.003 --> 00:23:17.993 <v Evely Raudmets>And what meditation does? 00:23:17.993 --> 00:23:23.718 <v Evely Raudmets>It calms down the emotional part of the brain, it thickens the prefrontal, the analytical part of your brain. 00:23:23.718 --> 00:23:24.681 <v Evely Raudmets>So it makes sense. 00:23:24.681 --> 00:23:41.314 <v Evely Raudmets>It all worked like our bodies and we're so innately intelligent that we, if we just allow for the good feeling to come and like, dare to walk with it, like the innate intelligence guides us to like either to sit in nature or paint or listen to music. 00:23:41.314 --> 00:23:44.659 <v Evely Raudmets>Again, you know, just be kind to ourselves, I think. 00:23:45.000 --> 00:23:55.020 <v Michael Cole>Absolutely, and I think you know we both know that when you're able to connect with something and it feeds your soul, you know it goes into your thoughts. 00:23:55.020 --> 00:24:01.696 <v Michael Cole>All the chemical releases and all the things like when we celebrate, et cetera, that we teach our clients. 00:24:01.696 --> 00:24:03.670 <v Michael Cole>It makes such a difference. 00:24:03.670 --> 00:24:09.403 <v Michael Cole>But you get those same releases from other things like art, from exercise, you know those kinds of things. 00:24:09.403 --> 00:24:11.067 <v Michael Cole>So it just it, absolutely. 00:24:11.067 --> 00:24:14.997 <v Michael Cole>It makes sense how fantastic and I. 00:24:15.238 --> 00:24:28.396 <v Evely Raudmets>I think it might not well, I'd like the experience, but what I gathered from observation when I saw them, they had each other because they had gone through a similar thing, so they could talk to each other and share. 00:24:28.396 --> 00:24:35.439 <v Evely Raudmets>I think that's really important, and maybe I didn't see them share with others because they wouldn't understand. 00:24:35.479 --> 00:24:36.501 <v Michael Cole>perhaps I don't know. 00:24:36.501 --> 00:24:44.174 <v Michael Cole>Yeah, so when, when people get out of the military veterans, et cetera they, they lose that camaraderie. 00:24:44.174 --> 00:24:46.739 <v Michael Cole>You know I'm going to go back to my my own fatheraderie. 00:24:46.739 --> 00:24:54.919 <v Michael Cole>You know I'm gonna go back to my my own father and you know he got out and went into alcohol and all the things you know just just sounds like you know your father did, yeah, um, it's. 00:24:54.919 --> 00:24:57.405 <v Michael Cole>I don't want to say it's the norm, but it's. 00:24:57.405 --> 00:24:59.010 <v Michael Cole>It happens more often than it should. 00:24:59.010 --> 00:25:12.784 <v Michael Cole>You know, um, and I think that when they, when they find something that positive, that moving forward, um, that support system and that's what I think your grandfather and father found that camaraderie that they lose. 00:25:12.784 --> 00:25:25.857 <v Michael Cole>So, my dad, when they got out back in Vietnam, there wasn't Facebook and all these amazing things they have now, so they knew each other from their call signs or their nicknames or whatever, and so they literally lost all those people. 00:25:27.010 --> 00:25:31.141 <v Speaker 1>And so very difficult for them, and I think it is for anybody. 00:25:31.260 --> 00:25:37.472 <v Michael Cole>It's like if you were to move to a different city after being so close to your father and could never talk to him again. 00:25:37.472 --> 00:25:39.563 <v Michael Cole>You know you lose a piece of your soul Right. 00:25:39.904 --> 00:25:40.950 <v Michael Cole>So I think it's very similar. 00:25:40.950 --> 00:25:47.002 <v Michael Cole>So it's it's such a blessing they had each other and a lot of the same experiences. 00:25:47.002 --> 00:25:51.541 <v Michael Cole>It sounds like, yeah, very cool. 00:25:51.541 --> 00:25:58.861 <v Michael Cole>So I'd like to move into, if we can, your thoughts on tools. 00:25:58.861 --> 00:26:06.192 <v Michael Cole>You know, I know we're both neuro encoders and we always go to those, but let's let's kind of just talk about that. 00:26:06.192 --> 00:26:15.566 <v Michael Cole>So tools that you know would help veterans that they can use, and families, for that matter, as well. 00:26:15.566 --> 00:26:21.042 <v Michael Cole>You know the unsung heroes, if you will, the silent heroes that go through a lot as well. 00:26:21.042 --> 00:26:30.585 <v Michael Cole>What are some tools that you see, with your coaching and so on, that would work for veterans that are struggling with these things? 00:26:33.171 --> 00:26:45.086 <v Evely Raudmets>So absolutely, the stop technique which I'm not going to go into here, but like it's everything, it's when you get stuck in your thoughts, like Einstein said, like trying to solve the problem in the way it got to, got you there. 00:26:45.086 --> 00:26:46.849 <v Evely Raudmets>Like is the definition of insanity. 00:26:46.849 --> 00:26:52.803 <v Evely Raudmets>So my thinking got me into this, so I won't think my out of out of my way, out of thinking. 00:26:52.803 --> 00:26:59.462 <v Evely Raudmets>So it's the easiest ways to go about it through physiology, right. 00:26:59.462 --> 00:27:08.352 <v Evely Raudmets>So change your body posture suddenly, create that like, shake your body out movement, and there's nothing to do when you just like the power poses work. 00:27:08.352 --> 00:27:15.797 <v Evely Raudmets>When you stretch your arms, like and look up, 25 percent additional testosterone in your body, you smile. 00:27:15.797 --> 00:27:17.984 <v Evely Raudmets>The brain doesn't know what's going on. 00:27:17.984 --> 00:27:26.517 <v Evely Raudmets>It's releasing those happy hormones anyway, and I love this exercise because this is this is one universe that has worked for everyone. 00:27:26.517 --> 00:27:31.560 <v Evely Raudmets>You need a piece of paper and a pen for it, okay, do you want to walk us through that, evelyn? 00:27:31.560 --> 00:27:37.287 <v Evely Raudmets>Oh, sure, I don't have my pen and paper here, but like I can guide, okay. 00:27:38.088 --> 00:27:41.958 <v Michael Cole>So anybody that wants to do it or later on can listen to this. 00:27:41.958 --> 00:27:44.063 <v Michael Cole>Evelyn is going to walk us through a quick exercise. 00:27:44.671 --> 00:27:56.809 <v Evely Raudmets>It comes from Byron Katie, it's called the Work and it's like how you take charge of your thoughts, like you are not your thoughts, and it always comes down to the question are you entertaining their thoughts? 00:27:56.809 --> 00:27:58.496 <v Evely Raudmets>Are all your thoughts entertaining you? 00:27:58.496 --> 00:28:11.682 <v Evely Raudmets>Which way is it so, whenever you find yourself feeling not so good, or you actually have a looping thought in your mind, investigate and catch that thought with its exact wording. 00:28:11.682 --> 00:28:17.698 <v Evely Raudmets>Let's say I'm always alone, I'll be alone forever, maybe a thought. 00:28:17.698 --> 00:28:24.844 <v Evely Raudmets>So you write the thought down exactly like I'm forever alone, or I'm always alone, I'm lonely. 00:28:24.844 --> 00:28:26.434 <v Evely Raudmets>I'm forever alone. 00:28:26.434 --> 00:28:28.653 <v Evely Raudmets>No one wants me, whatever the thought might be. 00:28:28.653 --> 00:28:29.836 <v Evely Raudmets>That's a random example. 00:28:29.836 --> 00:28:33.042 <v Evely Raudmets>And then you start questioning it. 00:28:33.042 --> 00:28:34.090 <v Evely Raudmets>Is it true? 00:28:34.090 --> 00:28:38.640 <v Evely Raudmets>Yes, it's true, I feel it, I have evidence. 00:28:38.640 --> 00:28:42.873 <v Evely Raudmets>The brain always proves to you what you ask it to prove to you, right? 00:28:42.873 --> 00:28:45.377 <v Evely Raudmets>Well, we're still intelligent people. 00:28:45.377 --> 00:28:48.884 <v Evely Raudmets>Then the second question is can I know absolutely that it's true? 00:28:48.884 --> 00:28:50.615 <v Evely Raudmets>There are no absolutes. 00:28:50.615 --> 00:28:56.082 <v Evely Raudmets>So no, I'm not able to predict the future in that accuracy. 00:28:56.082 --> 00:28:56.442 <v Evely Raudmets>So no. 00:28:56.442 --> 00:29:01.020 <v Evely Raudmets>And the third question is how do I feel when I believe the thought? 00:29:01.020 --> 00:29:06.521 <v Evely Raudmets>Well, I feel sad, lonely, right. 00:29:06.521 --> 00:29:13.101 <v Evely Raudmets>And the fourth question is how would I feel if the thought didn't exist, if it wasn't there. 00:29:13.101 --> 00:29:18.118 <v Evely Raudmets>Huh, well, I don't know. 00:29:18.118 --> 00:29:21.459 <v Evely Raudmets>Neutral, at least Right. 00:29:21.529 --> 00:29:28.384 <v Evely Raudmets>And then this opens up the space of okay, and the fifth one could be the thought opposite. 00:29:28.384 --> 00:29:30.696 <v Evely Raudmets>I will never be alone. 00:29:30.696 --> 00:29:31.713 <v Evely Raudmets>I get to choose. 00:29:31.713 --> 00:29:36.578 <v Evely Raudmets>You know, could that be at least the same amount of truth to it? 00:29:36.578 --> 00:29:38.123 <v Evely Raudmets>Usually, yes. 00:29:38.123 --> 00:29:43.980 <v Evely Raudmets>And then the space opens up for you to choose differently. 00:29:43.980 --> 00:29:45.742 <v Evely Raudmets>How you show up what you do, because how we think, so we feel. 00:29:45.742 --> 00:29:46.769 <v Evely Raudmets>How you show up what you do because how we think, so we feel. 00:29:46.769 --> 00:29:47.972 <v Evely Raudmets>How we feel, so we do. 00:29:47.972 --> 00:29:52.430 <v Evely Raudmets>So we're constantly looking for a little bit of a better feeling. 00:29:52.430 --> 00:30:04.723 <v Evely Raudmets>And when we tackle the thoughts by writing them down, challenging them with the four or five questions, a light opens up, like a little crack of hope, you know know Right? 00:30:05.325 --> 00:30:07.127 <v Michael Cole>No, that is a great exercise. 00:30:07.127 --> 00:30:09.153 <v Michael Cole>It's fantastic and truly. 00:30:09.153 --> 00:30:13.502 <v Michael Cole>Anybody that hasn't done this exercise, just try it. 00:30:13.502 --> 00:30:17.400 <v Michael Cole>Just try it once and you will see how it works. 00:30:17.400 --> 00:30:20.296 <v Michael Cole>It's a fantastic exercise, so thank you for sharing that with us. 00:30:20.750 --> 00:30:24.078 <v Evely Raudmets>Yeah, and I must say I tried to do it six months in my head. 00:30:24.078 --> 00:30:24.882 <v Evely Raudmets>Didn't work. 00:30:24.882 --> 00:30:26.492 <v Evely Raudmets>Had to write it down. 00:30:26.492 --> 00:30:28.420 <v Evely Raudmets>Be smarter than I was. 00:30:31.029 --> 00:30:33.095 <v Michael Cole>Yes, Excellent. 00:30:33.095 --> 00:30:34.156 <v Michael Cole>Thank you for sharing that. 00:30:34.156 --> 00:30:35.980 <v Michael Cole>So we're about. 00:30:35.980 --> 00:30:37.344 <v Michael Cole>Well, we're past time already so. 00:30:37.344 --> 00:30:40.174 <v Michael Cole>I told you that 15 minutes we just fly through. 00:30:40.174 --> 00:30:50.000 <v Michael Cole>So what I'd love for you to do is if you can share three tips for our veterans or their families on how to get further faster. 00:30:50.000 --> 00:30:54.858 <v Michael Cole>Whether it be you can't use the same tip you just did, though that's not fair. 00:30:54.858 --> 00:30:57.297 <v Michael Cole>You have to have three new ones. 00:30:57.297 --> 00:31:02.602 <v Michael Cole>Okay, how to get further faster during transition or after transition in life. 00:31:04.010 --> 00:31:06.199 <v Evely Raudmets>So I'm just going to go whatever comes to me right now. 00:31:06.199 --> 00:31:10.221 <v Evely Raudmets>First thing that pops to mind is when you're going through hell, don't stop. 00:31:10.221 --> 00:31:12.313 <v Evely Raudmets>You don't want to stop. 00:31:12.313 --> 00:31:17.063 <v Evely Raudmets>Keep moving, you will get out of it, that's number one I love that Second one. 00:31:17.550 --> 00:31:20.499 <v Evely Raudmets>Second one is be kind to yourself. 00:31:20.499 --> 00:31:22.836 <v Evely Raudmets>Stick your like when you were four years old. 00:31:22.836 --> 00:31:26.300 <v Evely Raudmets>Stick that picture to your screensaver phone and look at that kid. 00:31:26.300 --> 00:31:27.021 <v Evely Raudmets>Be like when you were four years old. 00:31:27.021 --> 00:31:28.402 <v Evely Raudmets>Stick that picture to your screensaver or phone and look at that kid. 00:31:28.402 --> 00:31:28.803 <v Evely Raudmets>Be kind to yourself. 00:31:28.803 --> 00:31:29.903 <v Evely Raudmets>That's where everything begins, you. 00:31:29.903 --> 00:31:36.167 <v Evely Raudmets>If you can't love yourself at first, if you've been distanced from love like kindness is in everyone, be kind to yourself first. 00:31:36.167 --> 00:31:41.178 <v Evely Raudmets>And the third one is shake your butt. 00:31:41.178 --> 00:31:43.942 <v Evely Raudmets>Just shake it, with or without music. 00:31:43.942 --> 00:31:47.739 <v Evely Raudmets>That will create the, the happy hormones, because it's produced in the gut. 00:31:47.739 --> 00:31:48.833 <v Evely Raudmets>So just shake your ass. 00:31:49.555 --> 00:31:50.577 <v Michael Cole>Two music would be better. 00:31:50.577 --> 00:31:58.240 <v Michael Cole>Yeah, if you have astitute, I promise, the goopier you get with it, the more you smile, and it just releases all the good chemicals from your brain. 00:31:58.240 --> 00:32:00.454 <v Michael Cole>Yeah, it's brain science. 00:32:00.454 --> 00:32:02.644 <v Michael Cole>I love it, I love it. 00:32:02.644 --> 00:32:04.510 <v Michael Cole>Thank you so much, emily. 00:32:04.510 -->
