Java Bud

Tony Dufresne is a Philosopher, Transformation coach, certified personal trainer, life strategist, writer, speaker, single dad, winner of multiple all-you-can-drink Ovaltine contests, and a thousandaire entrepreneur who considers coffee to be its own food group. The fancily written documents on his wall include a PhD in applied philosophy, a master’s in psychology, and a personal trainer certification with specialization in behavioral change through the National Association of Sports Medicine (NASM). Tony is also a trained facilitator, a member of the Psi Chi (the International Honor Society in Psychology), and ardent collector of vintage Ukrainian pornography. After 20 years of study and research, Tony created the Surrounded by Idiots Radio Podcast and Java Bud, an online coaching and resource site that has helped countless human beings (and one enthusiastic feral cat) to get really clear on what they want their life to be about with the tools to make it happen. A self-proclaimed nonconformist, Tony never wanted to fit into the mold of a traditional therapist or life coach, which is reflected in his non-sugarcoated, direct, snarky, and dry-witted approach to educating and motivating his clients to make their own unique mark on this world. OK, I’m being told my time is up, so you can read and hear more by going to Javabud.com. Stay thirsty, my friends. Ten percent of the net proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to Singleton Moms, a non-profit organization based in Scottsdale, Arizona, that provides resources to single parents and children going through cancer treatment. I served on the Singleton Moms board of directors for four years and have seen the incredible impact this group, specifically the organization’s founder Jody Farley, has had on hundreds of families that are battling this terrible disease. If you would like more information about Singleton Moms, visit www.singletonmoms.org. If you don’t have a regular nonprofit that you support, I highly encourage you to reach out. Hell, this whole book has been about helping you to help yourself to help others, so it would only make sense, right?
