[00:00:00] Welcome back to the Miracle Plant Podcast, where we discussed this miracle plant with so many names and how it's helping people in so many extraordinary ways.
Well, today we're bringing on another special guest, uh, Philip has on the, uh, has an amazing mission himself that's so aligned with ours. It's called the letter y. Get involved. Dot org. And Philip, uh, is so gracious to join us. We've been going through a lot of technology challenges, but he's here on Twitter spaces, so he's made it through.
He is jumped through all those hoops. So Philip, welcome to the Miracle Plant Podcast. How are you Justin? I'm amazing. Thank you for having me. Absolutely. Well, uh, tell us about how your mission got started and, and, and, uh, and where people can learn more about it and help. Well, my started. In my heart, you know, I think all missions get started in the heart, and mine got started because I saw a need.
And the need was, you know, [00:01:00] single parent moms. Um, it, it is a single parent is an epidemic, and I think no one really pays attention to the core of single parent moms. And I think the core of single parent moms is raising good kids, and it's hard for them to do that if they don't have the resources. So, My set out on the mission to try to make sure that single parent moms, the disadvantaged families, have the resources to raise good men and good women, you know, so our neighborhoods could be better.
And, um, God has given me the tools, you know, um, to be able to do that. And so that's what I'm working on. Love it. So cool. So cool. And so tell us about the, the website and the foundation and how could people get started? How can they help out? Well right now. Um, the website, of course, she is letter y, get involved.org.
And the way people can help out is just helping out with their neighbors, just helping out when they see a need. Um, [00:02:00] my motto is, you know, if you think they're, you can, you can do something, you definitely can do something, you know, and it is just a matter of reaching out. Um, right now. I have some lofty goals in terms of, you know, um, getting, um, single parent moms to children insured.
I think that's one of the biggest things to do is to protect the children. And so if, if, if moms or family could do anything right now, I think it's just a matter of just ensuring your children to protect them, you know, from the world, you know? Um, but you could always come on to the, um, website and, um, You know, donate and then we'll do whatever we can to help the world as well.
Love it. So they go to the website and you kind of teach 'em about what you can do or, um, what are, what are the specific things that the website will help people understand what they can do? Well, right now what we're doing is [00:03:00] I have several different programs, and so one of the programs that I have is, You know, helping moms understand, um, the worth in terms of their children.
What we have a foundation that we created where we, we wanna guarantee that like every kid has an opportunity to go to college. Every, every kid isn't college prepared. And I think it's, every kid isn't college prepared. Cause the families believe that they can't get their kids, they won't be able to afford it.
And if we can get. Moms to understand the worth of the education and the worth of getting your kids prepared early on, and us helping them with if they need tutors and helping them with, if they need rides to libraries and helping them if they, you know, anything that we can do to help moms believe that their kids are gonna have, you know, an opportunity to move forward in life.
That's what we're trying to do when you [00:04:00] come to the website. Love it. Love it. So are you working kind of more local in, in your local neighborhoods? Are you working statewide or nationally or internationally? What's your focus right now? Well, right now we're local and, um, because once, once, you know, everything is dependent upon dollars.
So you can, you know, realistically, you are only gonna be able to do as much as, you know, as far as your dollars will take you. And the more and more resources we have, the more and more people we can help. And, you know, you, that's the, the last thing that people want is, is you to ask them for money. I think, you know, but when people see that you have a worthy cause, you know, then they, then they, then the money becomes, you know, not so much, you know, um, a barrier.
And so that's, that's the key. So right now we're, we're local, but our mission is, you know, to take care of all the children throughout the country. [00:05:00] Love it. So if somebody wants to help or donate or get involved, uh, should they go to the website? Is there a place for them to, to uh, get more dollar dollar bills?
You know, it's, yeah. And that's, that's the key. And, and I'm. Like I said, it is, it's, you can go to, um, y letter y get involved.org and express what, what it is that you would like to do if you lo if you wanna donate, if you have, if you're smart, if you have, you know, tools that we can use to help families, we, you know, we're open, you know, it's not, um, that we know everything or that we know what's best.
It's just that we're just trying to do our part. You know, and I don't think there's no, you know, there's no one can have the absolute answer. And it's like you and I, you know, we're you trying to reach a billion people? We're, we're trying to reach as many as we can as well, and we're, we we're on the same team.
You know, it's just that, you [00:06:00] know, we just come together and make it happen. Well, it's all about the kids. That's how our story got started. I was looking for a solution for my son who. Was a healthy kid and all of a sudden developed a late stage, uh, autism diagnosis and we were able to clean up his diet and found raw hemp juice was the thing that helped clear his brain from the toxins and the fog and, and it's all about helping the kids.
And we helped thousands of families. All over the world, uh, with autism and, and many other things like cancer and Parkinson's and all those really tough ones that the me, the Western medicine hasn't quite figured out. And a lot of it starts with diet and introducing leafy green vegetables, just like raw hemp, just like juice and celery.
So we certainly are on the same mission and whether we're helping people take control of their health. Or helping people take control of their life or helping people take control of their education and, uh, opening up new opportunities and doors. It's certainly, uh, we certainly are aligned. So before we go, any final comments or anything else to [00:07:00] leave the audience with?
Well, um, I just want not to my own horn. So I just finished the book not too long ago. I went on a fasting journey. I, I, um, I fasted for 104 days and, um, And not consecutively. So I know you like what? Not consecutively. I, I was searching how to become a superhero and, and through my research and I'm spiritual and through my research, I, um, I prayed and, and God showed me who the superheroes were.
We always have a superhero, superhero when we growing up, be it Superman, Batman, and, and any, any of those. But, you know, I, I searched for a real sup, a real superhero. You know, and what they did, and through my research, I found that the real superheroes were, were, you know, Gandhi and Mother Teresa and Martin Luther King, and the countless ones, and then the, the number one [00:08:00] was Jesus.
And in order for them to have the superpowers that they, they had, they fasted and they prayed. So I went on a journey to figure out how that could make me a superhero. So, um, I fasted for 104 days and what I, how I did it was I said I wanted to be, I didn't want it to just be a, a one-time thing. I wanted to make that sacrifice on a weekly basis.
So what I decided to do is I decided I would fast every Monday and Tuesday. Water, just water, vitamins and minerals. And it gave me such clarity that I felt like I needed to let other people know, you know? And along with the water and the mighta been minerals, you know, you want to let 'em know that, you know, you gotta clean up your diet.
So I faceted for the whole year and I wrote the book. The book is [00:09:00] called the 1 0 4. Um, and it's, it's, I believe it's going to help a lot of people. You know, get to where you are and get people to understanding the sacrifices that they need to make with their health and, and with their diet. And it's helped me tremendously and, and a lot of weaknesses.
People, we all have weaknesses, and I think that by fasting on a consistent basis like that, even if you do it for three months, you'll see. Amazing changes in your life. And so, and I think that what is, in order to get the diet that we say we have to have the discipline, and I think the fasting is, um, and meditating and listening to good, good teachers, you know, um, at the same time you, you'll get there.
So that's the only other thing that I did wanted to put out there is the book is available on Amazon and. I'm going [00:10:00] to be sharing that, um, you know, with, with churches and with different individuals trying to get people to take, you know, the goal and it's called the, you know, get your life right Challenge, you know, and I'm, I'm in the future here.
I'm, that's what I'm going to be trying to do, get people to understand the value.
Justin, I'm here. Yeah. What was the name of the vote one more time? Um, um, the 1 0 4, the Legacy. Love it. By Philip Jones? Yeah, by Philip Anthony. It's Philip. I know. You know, you, you put up. It's Philip Anthony, the 1 0 4. That's Philip Anthony. Yeah. The legacy tree of the beginning of me. Love it. I'll have to check that one out.
That sounds awesome, man. That sounds like such a cool thing. And I'm, uh, excited, uh, that we got a chance to meet and I look [00:11:00] forward to watching your journey and helping out any way that I can. At the end of Every Miracle Plant podcast, we say heal the world cuz that is our mission to reach a billion people about the power of this miracle plant in the raw form, just like juice and celery.
So on the counter three, join me in saying heal the world as we get out there and make the impact that needs to be made. Uh, for the people that need help. So on the count three, let's say heal the world. 1, 2, 3, heal the world.
All right. Thanks for joining us everybody. Thank you as well, Philip, and we'll be a blessing and uh, happy healing.
