  Speaker 1: Okay? My name is Javon Kyle. I was born or
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: born in Homestead on the Mucha based there. I moved
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: to Panama, well, my family moved to Panama and was
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: raised there, like from sixth grade when I graduated, so
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: kind of fast for a little bit of the name
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: the thing came from, and it was just me being blessed,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: gifted and chosen still be here to speak and to
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: tell my story. I hope he can touch somebody, you know,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: So that's what I'm here for.
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: So what led you into the trucking industry and what
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: kept you there for twenty six years?
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: Right? Okay? Uh? Like I said again, a bad relationship,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And it was kind of
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: it was taking at me to toe. I knew I
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: had to get out the street life somewhere one way
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: or the other, you know what I'm saying. And that breakup,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: and I had a homie that came to me rest
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: in peace, and you know, he put me on in
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: the truckle world, you know what I'm saying, just to
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: ride and just to see and travel and see different places,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: you know, and learned a lot, you know, just going
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: to different distribution centers and which it makes on me
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: all kinds of places. So that that that got me
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: into the trucking and I just kind of stayed in
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: from that point.
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, okay, So so you dealt with the bad
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: breakup and you didn't really have a plan or what
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: you wanted to do with your life. Your friend was like, hey,
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: I'm in trucking, come rab with me. You got to
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: see what the ins and outs was what he did,
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: and you was like, yes, I want to.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: Do that, right? That was that's pretty much sums up correctly. Yeah,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: that just sums up like that, you know me, because
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: I ain't even know what that's going to be back
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: and then so fun because like when they when I
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: went through treking school back in two thousand, uh you know,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: had the down shift. Didn't know how to do that
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: at all, So I just to float the gears. I'm
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: floating the gears at this sounds like you gotta reach
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: your RPMs and just put it in gear without do
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: them deble question anything, you know what I'm saying. So
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: I kind of already had it in me and didn't
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: realize I did, you know tearso mean like these new
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: trickers they don't have the gears. It's gas and break.
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, okay, okay, yeah that would have been mean
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: because I would have been able to be.
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: I do I do a five or six whatever the case.
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: Maybe I can do them, but eighteen no, I wouldn't
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: have been able to do it.
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: Ain't gonna lie mead. Okay.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: So people often, you know, I gotta read and I
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: ain't got no glasses on y'all.
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: The paper is right here, I promise.
• 8:57
  Speaker 6: So.
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: So people often see freedom of trucking, but they don't
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: always see the sacrifices. What were some of the biggest
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: physical and mental challenges and emotional challenges that you faced
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: the being.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: On the road. Well, I could say that the things
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: that a lot of truckers don't see is like the
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: sacrifice we make, plus like being speed away from home,
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: being with your family if you have it, if you
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: don't have kids, it's kind of like a perfect career
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: for you if you like to travel and drive and
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: all that. It's a perfect career for you if you
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: like that. But when you got other things going on,
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: it makes it very very complicated.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: Okay, okay, And so what about mental stress? Is it
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: stressful mentally and is it stressful emotionally?
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: Yes, because that part, you know what I'm saying, And
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: the stress of that because it's like a hurry up
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: and wait, you know, we have to get the load
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: of my back. We gotta hur up and get somewhere,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. And a lot of times
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: the traffic and these brokers they just call us like
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: spam call us, you know what I mean. Just that
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: just that that being the most uh emotional part of that,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. That was bothering when you're
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: trying to sleep, they brother try to drive euse me.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: So that that that's the part of that, you know,
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: that emotional stress from that, just just from the brokers
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: and because you gotta be on time, and then when
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: you get there, they waste your time like you just
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: sitting there waiting and get unloaded. You're like, dang, you know,
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: I still gotta go here. I said, I go there
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: and I ain't got no sleep yet, you know what
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. That's the part that people don't really see,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. That we go through you
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, and then we get to see
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: everybody was geting ready to clock out go home, and
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: we still lie here, you know what I'm saying. They
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: complain about working local jobs. I'm like, man, what does that?
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: You know? Y'all? Y'all home every day. Yeah, yeah, you
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: hold too much pressure. You know. They need to build
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: trucker to learn how to balance all that, balance their
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: emotions and their feelings and everything like that. You know.
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, So another question just popped into my head.
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: So and I always, you know, thought of this.
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: I always have because I'm the type of person to
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: just be like, Okay, so if I ain't never if
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: I wasn't able to get that, or if I wouldn't
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: have been able to go to the store, And like
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: a lot of people don't understand how essential truckers really are, right,
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: So if we didn't we if we walk in the
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: store right now, I ain't gonna stay a big brand name,
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: but you know the big brand names, and we walk
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: in the store and go get some tissue or some tupaste.
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: Really, the truck is the reason why we can.
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: Get that stuff because they're bays in the back of
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: these big brand stores where these trucks pull up and
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: they have to unload. So if it wasn't for those truckers,
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So when we went through
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: that whole situation where basically the whole country shut down, really,
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: you guys are the reason why when we stayed afloat
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: because you guys, So that was that I want to
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: speak about. I want you to speak to that because
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: I think a lot of people don't really pay attention
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: or you know, at heart, I understand how important truckers
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: really are, and I what you guys go through. So
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: can you speak from your heart about how we are
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: so mindless of not knowing? You know what I'm saying,
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: the things that we get hard, you guys really.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Do work, right that that's a lot like we don't
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: have like a trucker appreciation weeks or a truck appreciation day,
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean? But oh yeah, like stuff
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: runs out all the time, you know what I'm saying.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Nobody notice life and stuff runs out? Who brings it?
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? I was in that straight
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: deal with the other on operators. We try to go
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: on strike and try to get all the truckers try
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: to shut down, but it was not successful just because
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: there's more company drivers than this on operators. It's gonna
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: take a whole village for us to do that. But
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: then I start looking like, man, my money's starting to
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: fall short. I can't I can't continue to get this.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: See with y'all. But you know what I mean, Like
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: I have to get back out there, you know what
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. But there's a lot of emotional stress. Like
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: even with truckers, they go through that and they black
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: man like, you know, people don't notice what we do,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: and then they get angry with the government to get
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: anger with the governor and just want to just go
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: and just try to run them over, you know what
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: I mean. Like it's just a lot of emotions with truckers,
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: you know that we go through on that tip, you know,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: because we don't get noticed enough, you know what I'm saying,
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: until everything runs out, Like even during COVID, you know
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like I was full flared it all
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: day long, you know what I'm saying, Like my truck
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: never stopped and I used to run. I was running,
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: and you know I wouldn't even the police wouldn't even
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: stop us, you know what I'm saying, because we have
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: a reefing. Of course that's food grade. So as long
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: as we ride that, you know, they never stopped us,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: you know, but that's stuff everybody else now and shut
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: you down onside the road, you know what I mean?
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: Because also, wait, let me, let me stop you real quick.
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: So what you were talking about is a refrigerated truck
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: that had those type of goods in it. They wouldn't
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: stop you because that was like super essential because you
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: had to get.
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: That to the stores.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Correct because food food, food was running out to you.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like food was running out.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying that a lot of the truckers,
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: they wouldn't do it. They wuldn't take those loads because
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: they when they're afraid of the weather or they're afraid
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: of the mountain grade. Uh, there's a lot of stuff
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: they're afraid of, you know what I mean. They a
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: lot of triggers taught that big talk like the out
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: there like that, But it's a lot of mountain grade
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: that you got to deal with, especially when like eighty
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: thousand pounds you loaded. Sometimes you still overloaded. But when
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: you're like that, that that way of that truck, you
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like and going to the mountains,
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: that's crazy, you know what I'm saying. But I was
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: one of those truckers that I knew the drive had
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: to be dead. So I get out there and we
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: did just do the driving my nephew and we got that,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: just got it done. I think we even had COVID.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Even at that time, were
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: still fighting trying to keep him up at times and
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: I wake him up. You know what I'm saying, lieutendai break,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: that's you gotta get up. You know what I'm saying.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: You know you can't sleep that long, sleep all day long?
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: Oh cat? Oh yeah, man, just go get it. You
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. You can't rest like that. You
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: slept now, Yeah, he sleep his old ten hour break
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: with the old team.
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: So that part of that that, you know, a lot
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: of people to really don't really understand that, you know
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. You know, you see them doing you
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: see little kids doing this. They want us to bortle on.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. That's cool, but hey, yeah,
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: they don't don't really acknowledge kids and knowledge that of us.
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, what if? Okay?
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: So and then there's another oput in question, but can
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: you explain the difference between the on an operator and
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: a company truck.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: Driver the truck driver correct on our operator. It's a
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: lot of different levels to that on operator, they got
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: least drivers. You know what I'm saying. On O preator
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: would be considered owning the truck. And man, I mean
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: you still make your payments on things of that nature,
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, but you hold so responsibility
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: of everything. Feel you gotta pay your fueler taxs, you
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: gotta you gotta do all that. You know what I'm saying.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: You gotta be mindset to that even that's the least
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: truck because you're least in the truck through maybe the
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: company you work for, you know what I'm saying. So
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: the truck really can't go anywhere. You know what I'm saying.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: You can't like say, okay, this is entire of working here,
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: let me take my trust somewhere else. Now. On operators
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: can do that. You know, we don't want as they
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: can just go bounce around where we feel like you
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: go bounce around at and see where them you know
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying, that's that's where they're chasing. The money
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: part comes in there get us what we have to do.
• 17:24

• 18:13
  Speaker 1: So your day used to get lesson less and less

• 18:28
  Speaker 4: Operator.
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: You can set your own schedule, you can set your
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: own hours, you do you know what I mean? Not
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: saying that you're not gonna do what I'm saying like
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: you set them.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: But yeah, you set your own pace. Yeah, but the
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: company get the level there though, that's much work. Lower
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: get there and they good now they be bothering, But
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: you gotta get the lowder there too. So yeah, you
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: can set your own thinking up. How you need to
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: just set it up?
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: Okay, okay, all right?
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: And then.
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: So when your health begins to change, what was the
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: experience like? What was that experience like, and how did
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: it change your perspective on life.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: When the health started to change. Man, I really didn't
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: understand the change. I mean, I you know, my mom
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: was still wired one way, So I really didn't understand
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: the change when my health started decline. Knuckers, I really
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: didn't pay that no attention. Hard ahead, That's what I was.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: And I wasn't paying that no attention. I was still
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: just trying to do what I need to do as
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: far as being a trucker, as far as being my father,
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: trying to take care of my fam and you know,
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: learn the business part of just trekking in general. So
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: I think after twenty six years of me doing what
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: I did, I learned how to become a business person,
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: you know, I learned to be business minded. You know,
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: I learned how to, you know, do the right thing,
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: but that I came with failure too, you know what
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. See a lot of folking like that. That's
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: one thing I feel like social media don't put on
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: there that nobody don't put up there, like the failures
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: are tricking, you know what I'm saying. So I was like, yeah,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: I got this money, I made this check. You know,
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: that's where they got with it. I think that attracted
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: a lot of people to the truck on world that
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: understand you know what I mean, And it's sad.
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: I think that that would that's what would separate you
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: and make you an amazing coach for truckers because you
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: know the woes of the business and you can tell
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: them like listen, yeah, you can make good money out there.
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: You can make very good money out there, but you
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: got to take care of your health, like you know
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: what I'm saying. And I'm an example of that. And
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: so I think that that would be wonderful if you
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: just went out and told your story, and you know,
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: I think I think that you would be very beneficial
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: to a lot of truckers out there. And I don't
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: think you know how important you are and why you're
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: still here, like you have an assignment. That's why this
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: is called what it's called. That's why your episode is
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: called what it's called a story of God's glory because
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: he he blessed you to still be.
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: Here on purpose.
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: So can we go into a little bit of what
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: you went through health wise and how you are here today?
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: Right? Okay? Health wise? Okay, I was I kept on
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: getting swoll like I lost slight a weight. I kept
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: getting swold just and bad habits, bad eating, until like
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: after like I'm gonna explode, you know what I'm saying
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: that my body just say like, hey, I had nothing.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: My kingdom was like hey bro, we can't process all this,
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So my throat dried out
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: a lot. I'm thinking I was just dehydrated. So I
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: used to drink that through gallons of order a day.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, the first gallon, I'm like, dang, I still dry, Like,
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: ain't no way that mine can still be dry After
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: the first gallon, you know what I mean. I went
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: and another one in, so I was just my body
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: was overloaded with fluids and all kinds of processed foods.
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: And the laziness mentality I kind of had, you know
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying, So all that played a factor in that,
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And then when I went
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: through far As just with the stroke, that really changed
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: my life, you know what I'm saying, Like God to
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: me memory lane. I was I Memory Lane for its
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: whole seven days, like just seeing everything in my life differently,
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: things I could have did differently, or even some scenes
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: of my future, you know what I mean. I seen
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: that too, you know, before I was touched, you know
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. In the hospital in the middle of
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: I before had I seen the hand of God come
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: down on me. It was real crazy how that happened,
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: because it's like a big hand. Just I seen the
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: finger in the pointer of f coming down to my forehead,
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: knowing darking with my forehead when that beg like that,
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. It's just it's just coming
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: out the side of me, like I'm looking like, Okay,
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: what's going on? What's gonna happen now? And I was
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: being forced through a hologram waterfall and I ain't want
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: to go in now. To me, I thought I was
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: a grand reaper, you know what I'm saying, Because he
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: had like a staff or something in his hand, and
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: that's not God. But this is the other side. I'm
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: assuming the bad side and taking souls in the hospital,
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: like I heard, all kinds of people in the hospital
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: are dying. And I hit a little beeps and the
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: alarms and I ain't go off in there. I'm like, man,
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: this thing is real, you know what I mean? Hm,
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: And I was like, nah, I'm not going to that waterfall.
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: So I leaned my head back to push myself away
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: from it. And then when I did that, in the
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: red light and it just beamed down out the sky
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: and he ran in the middle of the forehead. And
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: then when that happened, I woke up and I looked
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: over with my dad and he just had it's little
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: like how he survived, and he's he's up and he's breathing. Well,
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: I wasn't breathing. The thing was still breathing from me.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: But I just have my eyes up, just looking like man,
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: my mouth was wired. Shit. I couldn't talk, you know
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: what I mean. So that's when I knew I was
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: chosen to even still be here because my family's actually
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: planning to my funeral and they just want to get
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: ready to like pull the plug on me and everything.
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: So so that's why that was looking crazy and I
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: just couldn't do but just look at him, so that
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: I just came in and said, hey, we gotta take
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: the we gotta take the ventilator out. You know, he's breathing.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, his eyes are open, he's turning his head,
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: he's looking around. So yeah, that that experience changed my life,
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean to where I'm at now.
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: So yeah, it's just come back from that.
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: So for those of y'all don't know, we're from the
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: same city, but I ain't know none of that. Like
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: you just said, I know none of that. We're from
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: the same city. I've been knowing Javon since middle school,
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: so but.
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: I ain't know none of that.
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: I didn't I didn't know any of that. So if
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: y'all seen me, my bad if I had my mouth
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: wide open, because I didn't know none of that. So
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: but I know how powerful the most how it is.
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: I know how miracles are happening every day, and a
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: lot of people do not believe, they don't trust, they
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: don't think that you know, they could be chosen or
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: already are chosen and have a mission or for their lives.
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: But he does it every day. He touches people every day.
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: He heals people every day. And I know you gotta
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: be honored to be used to be here here.
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yes, absolutely so.
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: If you could sit down with your younger self, younger
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: Javon who had just started trucking, what advice would you
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: give him about health, family, and life.
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: Well, if I could have set out myself. You don't
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: like that. I mean, I know it's gonna be hard headed.
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: So it's kind of like when you talk to myself like, Okay, hey,
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: maybe you need to slow down and do this. You
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: need to pump the brace and not eat out as
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: processed food. No, it's good. You know I like it too,
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. But you know we can't
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: keep doing our bodies like that. You know what I mean.
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: We got to take care of our bodies. You know
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. We gotta take care of mental. Our
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: body is a temple. I have to take care of that.
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I just bottom line to it.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: I mean, if you don't take care of it, it
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: ain't gonna take care of you after while that's.
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: So true, that's so true.
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: How did you experience lead you to create Gifted Jay three?
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: And what impact are you hoping.
• 27:04
  Speaker 4: To make now?
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: Jay Shine? Trucking was my first one, right that and
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: that that that still included my kids too, Like my
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: kids always been my inspiration. You know what I'm saying,
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: to let me go a hood order, you know, to
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: to get out there and do what I need to
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: do for them. You know what I'm saying. I'm not
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: asking them to be truckers. You know. That's why I
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: steered my boys away from that, you know, both and
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: I astually went to the military my daughters when I
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: kind of still got to keep a hold on too.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: But yeah, it's just you know, it's it's just a
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: lot that came with that and a lot of my experience,
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: you seemed, just being a trucker, you know what I'm saying,
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: it's very emotional. I mean, I don't know a trucker
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: that I would say that's not you know what I mean,
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: Because it is we have we have different challenges every
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: day every day. Maybe there's always different challenges. If you
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: have the same challenge and guess what you get your
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: tell about that truck. You go sit down somewhere period
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: right right when you feel like you know more in
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: the truck and world or whatever, then it's time to
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: get out of it, go find something thats to do.
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you think you know it all right.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: Because you ain't gonna never know it all every day.
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: It's just just a different challenge. Like I don't drove
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: flat bed I done drove the refrigerator trailers. I don't
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: drove tankers. You know what I'm saying, Uh, down did all.
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: I just didn't do the double and triples. But you
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, I had it on my license.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I drove all different trucks
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: in the trucking industry.
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: What is a double lane triple? Because I don't know
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: what that is?
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: Well, double and triple. It's like a truck pulling like
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: two trailers behind it. Okay, like maybe maybe like you
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: see fed X you know I see fedes two little
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: trailers behind it. Oh yeah, if you go up north
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: like Michigan, all that you're gonna see like two fifty
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: three foot trailers behind each other.
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: Oh okay, that makes it.
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: Along like a you know kind of similar like a
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: train kind of but that's just on the turnpipe where
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: they do that at I never heard.
• 29:19
  Speaker 4: Of that time though, So it's time every day you
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: really do. Okay.
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: So what would you say to someone who's going through
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: a health challenge or feels like life has knocked them down?
• 29:35
  Speaker 4: What would you say to.
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: Them, Well, you have to learn from what knocks you down.
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: From one, you have to learn from what not you down. See,
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: a lot of people always think like when you're getting
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: knocked down, like it's like some type of punishment type deal. Like, Nah,
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: it's not that. It's just something in that area where
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: you keep getting knocked down that that you gotta you
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, You gotta keep cript so you
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: know say it could be relationship ships, that can be
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: a relationship with your kids or whatever it may be.
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: You know, it'll keep repeating herself to you. Actually learn
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: because I learned what's going on. So even with young truckers,
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: I would tell them to slow down and just you know, yeah,
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: staff social media a little bit, try to be out
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: down the road. You know what I'm saying, You gotta
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: focus on your craft. You know what I'm saying, I mean,
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: you can't be out here disposing things. I mean, you
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: can't when you don't even can't dispose your own so
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So you have to sweep
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: around your own front door.

• 31:12
  Speaker 1: I do teach, Like I even used to set up
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: to the yard and teach people how to back up.
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: For some reason, females are always like the ones that
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: were good at driving, you know what I'm saying, as
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: far as like backing up and parallel parking.

• 31:38
  Speaker 1: passionate with the drive part, ma getting nervous. You know
