Azzie Robinson is the author of the Amazon bestselling book, "A Soldier Wife Lives On."

On this episode of American Real, Roger asks Azzie about the strength and courage necessary during her grief period after losing her husband, who served in the armed forces. "It was important to me because at that point when all of these incidents had occurred, I didn't know where to pick up at," Azzie said. "It was no one that I could reach out to to share my pain. So it had gotten to the point where I had to cry out to God to help guide me, to show me what I need to do, give me direction."

So i made it a point to be consistent to write my thoughts down, write a chapter down, or just jot down how I was feeling so I won't forget that emotion.

On this episode of American Real, Roger asks John about the process of writing his book, and if the output would have changed if he had released the book 10 years prior. "As time changed, and it changed probably 3 or 4 times," John says. "Because we're talking in the early 2000s or mid 2000s, things were different, and then they changed from that. So it had to continue to change. So I had to bring in people that was, you know, millennials, that kind of went through the old guard to the new guard. They kind of bridged the gap between the old guard and the new guard."

In an era characterized by the relentless pursuit of immediate satisfaction, the digital world has drastically shortened our attention spans and has amplified our desires for instant rewards. A term called 'delayed gratification' is a concept deeply rooted in our psychological makeup, and in an American culture that values speed over depth and immediate pleasure over lasting fulfillment. This philosophical approach is not only increasingly overlooked, it is often ignored. Through meticulously curated blend of a lifetime of practice and research, philosophical insights and transformative real life stories, today's guest Dr. Emilio Justo sheds light on how the intentional act of pausing and serve is a powerful catalyst for growth. In essence, it's a place where instant gratification goes back to school and into a retoolment period whereby it resurfaces to the world in an entirely new way. In his new best-selling book, "THE POWER OF PAUSE: Mastering Delayed Gratification for Success," Dr. Justo invites his readers on an introspective journey, challenging them to recalibrate their internal compasses and align their actions with their most profound aspirations. Once mastered, this newfound skill promises to unlock unparalleled levels of personal and professional achievement. Dr. Justo's life story is an inspiration. He was born in Cuba and fled as a refugee with his parents to the US, overcoming poverty and discrimination, and has achieved super success as an eye physician, cosmetic surgeon, two-time international TEDx speaker, best-selling author, master teacher and visionary.

On this episode of American Real, Roger asks Dr. Justo as to why Dr. Justo chose to pursue becoming an author in addition to a speaker and a surgeon. "I get that question quite often. I even question myself with that very same question and truly I think what it's been is again going along the concept of delayed gratification," Dr. Justo says. "In the first half of my career professional career I made some good decisions and I made some really bad decisions that the second half of my career is when I really excelled and I learned from my mistakes. I embrace those mistakes and as my wife repeatedly tells me that I made lemonade out of all the lemons that I was dealt. But certainly, I'm very proud of what I've accomplished and so I started thinking, you know, especially raising our kids. It's been probably the biggest challenge in my life. It is not really fully realizing how difficult in today's society it is, raising teenagers in particular, and so this whole concept of the delayed gratification really started hitting... I try and talk to them and explain to them. And you know, they nod their head and they seemingly agree but in reality they don't, because I see their actions and I see what they say, and so they just don't get it. They just don't get it. So so as a result I first decided to venture in the way of the TEDx stage and that happened purely by in a sense just by luck... here it is, now August. We're what, seven, eight months into it? And it's now exceeded over 6 million views. But even prior to that, you know I saw the momentum that it was gaining and that's what started me thinking, 'hey, you know maybe I need to write a book about this and see if I can expand upon the concepts which I started.'"

The Holy Land is an area located roughly between the Mediterranean Sea and the Eastern Bank of the Jordan River, and is traditionally synonymous both with Biblical land of Israel and with the region of Palestine. Today, the term "Holy Land" usually refers to a territory corresponding to the modern states of Israel and Palestine. Jews, Christians and Muslims alike redard this land as holy. As you know, the Holy Land has been heavily in the news ever since Hamas attacked Israel on October 7th, 2023. Our guest today knows the Holy Land quite well. Dr. George Ceremuga is a family physician who practices holistic health and healing, and believes all we need to fix the world is to love one another. He is also the best-selling author of "My 50-Day Pentecost in the Holy Land."

On this episode of American Real, Roger asks Dr. George about God having a sense of humor when some people take life too seriously. "Each day is a new beginning," Dr. George says. "God's mercies and Grace are new for us each day. What happened in the past is the past. God doesn't define us by the past. He defines us when he wakes us up - what are we going to do for him today? I always say if you want to give the Lord a good laugh, tell him your plans. When when my will lines up with the will of the Lord, nothing's going to stop it, right? And so I am anointed by him and chosen by him just to spread the gospel message of salvation through healthcare."

Spending 25 years in prison can have a profound effect on one's life. For the average person in society, time is what is cherished most. Yet, for one that's incarcerated, time is the one thing you have an abundance of, and it's how you spend that time that matters most. David O'Neill is our guest today. He did spend 25 years being incarcerated. He's the author of the new best-selling book, "Forged in Hellfire."

On this episode of American Real, Roger asks David about how he came up with the concept of getting his book written. "I spent a lot of years behind bars, and I had many guys tell me that my life was like a movie," David says. "Many of these guys had actually been there with me through these events that I had experienced, and they told me for years, 'you have to write this down, people need to see this.' For the last 2 years of my incarceration, I wrote. And I kept many of my journals throughout my incarceration, so I had books to go off, I had journals to go off of and use those as a platform to write my book."

The Francis Scott Key Bridge, also known simply as the Key Bridge, has been in the news lately. On March 26th, 2024, key parts of the bridge collapsed after the container ship Dali struck one of its peers. But before the collapse of the Key Bridge, Bob Bradley drove over the bridge almost daily. As he looked down over the bridge into Fort McHenry, he pondered how the British ships once invaded. Those thoughts inspired his historical fiction best-selling novel, "Beneath the Same Sky."

On this episode of American Real, Roger asks Bob to reflect on his experiences driving across the Key Bridge as he was writing his book. "I would drive over that bridge to go from one side of the harbor to the other and and I found it to be a beautiful drive," Bob says. "But one of the things that you got from the top of that bridge was a panoramic view of Baltimore City, which included looking down into Fort McHenry, you literally looked into Fort McHenry, which is really just a spectacular scene. I love to be where history took place, not just in the same town or in the same region, but in the very spot."

"And he came to me and we sat down, and he talked about what had happened. He wanted a story done, and now, the more I look back on it, I think, 'what was his motivation?
