Joel Oliver is the owner and founder of a podcast production company called East Coast Studio, which helps health-focused entrepreneurs enjoy the benefits of podcasting. In 2018, Joel faced the life-altering experience of major heart surgery, a time when he had to release control and place his full trust in the team he had built. From its humble beginnings over a decade ago as Joel’s solo freelance venture, the company grew organically without external funding. After recovering, Joel embraced life as a digital nomad for several years. During that time, East Coast Studio began to shift its focus, evolving from a broad podcast production service into a niche specializing in health and wellness. This transition was fueled by Joel’s growing passion for healthy living and his recognition of the powerful impact his clients were making in transforming lives around the globe.

Effect on Emotions
- We're all going to be affected by emotions. The emotions still hit me—it's just a matter of how I deal with them.
- I'm not a toddler; I can handle it. It's important to me to stay calm and do what I need to do, no matter what.
- Even if I'm having a rough day or something's bothering me, it doesn't change the fact that the work still has to get done. It's really about having control over how those emotions affect you.
Thoughts on Breathing
- There's box breathing, where you breathe in for less time than you breathe out. When I need it, the most important thing for me to remember is simply to take that breath.
- Even just a few moments of intentional, slow breathing can make the biggest difference.

Bullying Story
- I was always pretty friendly growing up, but over time, I became more mindful through small moments that taught me about self-control.
- I can’t recall specific events, but I remember feeling disappointed in myself afterward, thinking, “That reaction wasn’t who I want to be.” Even when someone was unkind, I didn’t want to stoop to shouting or insults.
- I’ve worked hard to rise above that. For me, even letting a careless comment slip feels out of line with the standards I’ve set.
