Becoming Legendary #78is a conversation with two business owners. Jesse and Micahel of Optimyze who run a bio-hacking business in Phoenix. The conversation itself stays pretty surface level, but its a good window into the world of business owners working on the front edge of health and wellness ideology.
Jesse Moreng has made Phoenix his home but was born and raised in New Jersey. He is a proud father of two children and loves spending time with them and learning from them. Jesse is passionate about helping people utilize natural and powerful modalities to achieve health and happiness and connection to their true source through nature's answers and the breath. Founding the business "Optimyze" in 2017 with business partner Michael Roviello has been instrumental in aligning with his purpose. My passion for health and healing stemmed from witnessing the mental and physical suffering which members of my family, friends and community members were going through. One of his greatest joys is witnessing others step into their own power realizing that they hold immense control to influence their own inner strength, health and happiness. Jesse was a competitive high school and collegiate wrestler (Boston University). He also was an amateur boxer and then successful mixed martial artists competing professionally for over 7 years record of 9-1. Jesse is a martial artist, a yogi, a breathwork coach (and student) and a health coach. Jesse has an associates degree from Boston University and Bachelors from Arizona State University. Jesse has been practicing yoga since 2001 and found it as a tool to get out of his mind and connect with the body and breath. Jesse became A certified Wim Hof Method instructor in 2017 which utilizes powerful breathing techniques, gradual cold exposure and mindset training to gain a new influence and control over our human systems that enable an overall strengthening and resiliency. Jesse has studied a variety of other breath practices and continues his journey as both a student and a teacher. Jesse has also owned and operated a local Phoenix based commercial landscape business for over a decade which has employed hundreds of individuals from the community and is Arizona's first commercial landscape business to eliminate the use of the harmful chemical glyphosate. Jesse enjoys nature, gardening and is most proud of being a father to two incredible children.
