Ready to unlock your full potential and achieve peak performance in all areas of your life? Join host Mark Talukdar on this inspiring episode of Peak Performance Perspectives as he delves into the holistic approach to well-being with the insightful entrepreneur, TRINN HITCH, the founder and CEO of Jampha Tibetan Pharmacy.Forget the old idea that peak performance is just about physical strength. Trinn reveals her powerful secret: true peak performance blossoms when your mind, body, and spirit are in harmony. Discover her simple yet profound morning routine, starting with compassion-focused mantras as the sun rises. Learn how shifting your focus outward can reduce self-centered thoughts and connect you to a greater sense of purpose.For Trinn, peak performance isn't about constant striving; it's about achieving "mind and heart coherence." Learn what it means to live and listen to your heart's wisdom, rather than being overwhelmed by the constant chatter of your mind. Discover how cultivating this inner alignment fuels a continuous flow state, allowing you to perform at your best without feeling stuck or starting over.Offer:For all purchases a 10% discount NEW10 code may he used on purchases and a free consultation can ve scheduled at heal.me/jamphaBioBorn into a faith-based family of military veterans, Trinn’s life has always been rooted in service. At 20, he dedicated himself to missionary work in rural Georgia, where he witnessed the deep connection between poverty and health. Later, his career in personal security reinforced his calling to protect others. But it was a brutal assault—one that nearly cost him his leg—that ultimately set him on the path of healing and his life’s mission: Jampha.Determined to free himself from addictive pain medications, Trinn immersed himself in plant medicine, uncovering the transformative power of terpenes and CBD. His first venture, Starseed, focused on organic pain relief, laying the foundation for what would become Jampha. In 2014, as he deepened his formulations, his mother faced a crisis—undergoing five brain surgeries in four weeks. Her choice to reject pharmaceuticals became another catalyst for his research, leading him to develop nutraceuticals that honored both science and spirit.Fate intervened once more when Trinn met Amchi Thubten Lekshe, a Seattle native trained in the ancient Sowa Rigpa healing traditions by Tibetan Lamas and Amchi Physicians. This fortuitous connection deepened Jampha’s evolution, merging Tibetan wisdom with modern plant-based medicine. As the world was reshaped by the COVID-19 pandemic, Jampha expanded its mission, striving to be the highest expression of Tibetan mineral and plant medicine.“Loving kindness must always guide our healing path,” Trinn affirms. “Our bodies understand their own healing needs—we just need to support them with the entourage effect of the abundant botanical and mineral resources we have already been gifted.”More information about Jampha is available on the web at:www.jampha.comTikTok @jhampatibetanwellnessInstagram @jhampatibetanpharmacyFacebook @jamphatibetanwellnessJampha can be reached through www.jampha.com, where products can be purchased online.For further information, Trinn can be reached at trinn@jampha.comASSETS for Promotional Pricing can be found in this link. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1z9q6lRQ4jE4UpYKTDIhQ_QbNik_BUiu-?usp=drive_linkConnect with Him:More information about Jampha is available on the web at:www.jampha.comTikTok @jhampatibetanwellnessInstagram @jhampatibetanpharmacyFacebook @jamphatibetanwellness

I usually charge three $350-$400 per hour for one on one personal training sessions with me but I will offer this to my online client at $350 per monthBio:Ngo Okafor is a two-time Golden Gloves boxing champion and Owner/ Founder of Iconoclast Fitness, a private training facility on Manhattan’s Fifth Avenue where celebrities such as Jennifer Lopez, Brooke Shields, Chelsea Clinton, Ralph Fiennes, John David Washington, and Danny Meyer get in their workouts. Ngo is also the creator of “28 Days Greater”, a training and nutrition methodology that helps people lose up to 25 pounds in 28 days. A Nigerian immigrant, Ngo came to the United States with no professional network or net worth, but through hard work, mental toughness, and consistency built himself into one of the most sought-after personal trainers in America. After a childhood marked by bedridden days in Nigeria, Ngo vowed to make up for lost time. He gained admission to college in Nigeria, at the age of 15. At 18, Ngo moved to the United States, alone, to study computer science and subsequently worked as an IT Specialist. At the relatively advanced age of 31 (an age that most boxers begin to retire), Ngo picked up boxing and within 3 years, he won two Golden Gloves National Championship titles, back-to- back. Using the same laser-sharp focus, Ngo established his personal training business, creating a model others would envy and earning accolades like the one from New York Post anointing him one of “New York’s hottest trainers whipping beautiful people into shape.” Those beautiful people include Naomi Campbell, Julia Roberts, Iman, Kahlana Barfield Brown, and Chanel Iman. Ngo has gained this loyal following by espousing a fitness belief that the mind is the most important muscle a person needs to develop. “The body is a slave to the mind and will do anything the mind tells it to do,” he says. Ngo is frequently quoted in publications as varied as Elle, Oprah Magazine, Men’s Health, Women’s Health, and Glamour, and is often a guest on television programs like The Today Show, Good Morning America, and Good Day New York. Ngo still models when he can fit it in, having appeared alongside the likes of Gisele Bundchen and Mary J. Blige in magazines such as Vogue, W, V, and WSJ. Despite all this, Ngo says his greatest accomplishment is being a devoted family man. He’s a husband and father to two beautiful children, Chioma, 9, and Amara, 5.Connect with Him:Instagram at @catchngo or Website www.ngookafor.com
