This is Part 2 of my interview with Magda Khalifa, founder of the first veteran-owned luxury fragrance line for men and women, Triangle Fragrance. A US Army veteran, she struggled with health issues upon coming home, having to deal with physical and mental challenges that pushed her more than anything that she experienced while on duty in Iraq. In her bestselling memoir, “American DREAM: Discipline, Resilience, Endurance, Adaptability, and Mentorship to Succeed and Win in Life,” she introduces the concept of the “Freedom Triangle.” It is a framework that can guide a person’s life by working on achieving the three types of freedom: time, health, and mind. She gives us a sneak peek about the Freedom Triangle in this episode, along with some practical tips we can apply now to be the better versions of ourselves. Let’s continue our interview with Magda and learn how to live the “American DREAM.” [00:01 – 06:00] The Real Key For Deep Mind IntegrationWhat motivated her to keep on working out and eating healthy The power of writing things down How you can make yourself accountable to yourself [06:01 – 16:48] The Freedom Triangle The final step that Magda took to put herself in a position to help her fellow veterans You don’t need to write a book, but you need to share your story Magda breaks down the “Freedom Triangle” Not following the flow and carving your own path What’s next for Magda?
