  • Why My Friend Walked Away From A $100MM Business… With Tom Dyson

    13/12/2019 Duration: 54min

    Today you’re going to sit down with me and eavesdrop as I catch up with an old friend that I haven’t seen in years... His name is Tom Dyson. Tom was the co-founder alongside Mark Ford, of the wildly successful investing and financial education company, the Palm Beach Research Group. Together, they turned the business into a $100 Million company. And then a few years ago Tom went through a divorce, depression overtook him, and he simply walked away from everything. Well today you’re going to hear the fascinating story of what happened, and why it ended up being a massive blessing in disguise. I’m thrilled to say that this story has an incredibly happy ending, but it certainly contains some very, very valuable lessons for all of us. Now given the fact that both of us are still in love with global economics and investing, we couldn’t help but dive into that topic towards the end of today’s interview. What’s going on with the markets? Is there a crash looming ahead, and what are Tom and I doing with our money? I

  • How To Build Lasting Wealth… With Garrett Gunderson

    04/12/2019 Duration: 45min

    If you’re an entrepreneur, this podcast has the power to save you at least $10,000 this year if you implement what you learn. Some of you will end up keeping millions of dollars in the coming years as a result of this episode. You see, at one point or another, you’re going to find out that making money, and keeping money are two completely different things. And you’re also going to find out that the decisions, actions, and personality traits that allowed you to make your money, are actually a liability when it comes to saving and accumulating it. So how do you avoid that trap? Well if you want to build real wealth and true financial freedom, the single most important thing you can do is to make a plan and a process to allocate the money you’re making, as it comes in. Now as business owners, the strategies and tools that we have available to us to build wealth, and reduce our taxes, are vast, and they are not created equal. CPA’s and financial advisors are not created equal either, and if you implement the wro

  • How To Make The Entrepreneurial Leap With Confidence With Teneshia Jackson Warner

    21/11/2019 Duration: 40min

    I think you’ll find today’s episode is extremely interesting for two reasons… When Teneshia Jackson decided to make the leap into entrepreneurship, she did so with nothing more than two suitcases, guts, and an idea… From her previous career, she’d identified an underserved niche in the marketing industry… Creating marketing campaigns for companies that were designed to speak directly to multicultural audiences. So she started a marketing agency from scratch to help them do exactly that. Today, EgamiGroup is an award winning agency with clients that include Proctor and Gamble, HBO, Target, Verizon, Oprah, and Major League Baseball. It’s an incredible accomplishment, and today she’s going to teach you some incredibly valuable lessons when it comes to starting a business from scratch, identifying your entrepreneur type, and how to overcome the hurdles all new business owners face in the beginning of their careers. But that’s not all… I have to admit that this interview was fascinating for me for a few reasons… O

  • How To Never Forget A Name Again, with Chester Santos

    14/11/2019 Duration: 47min

    Have you ever walked into a social event and introduced yourself to someone, only to realize that you’ve forgotten what they said just seconds later? I know that’s happened to me many, many times, and it’s a horrible feeling. Have you been in a meeting, giving a presentation, or on a phone call where you need to remember specific details, but mind just goes blank? Yep, I’ve been there as well. Well today I have the privilege of introducing you to Chester Santos. Chester is one of the world’s foremost authorities when it comes to memory, and today he’s going to teach you how to remember anything that’s important to you, forever. He’s been a speaker at TED and Google, and has been invited to share his knowledge with millions of people around the world through appearances on CNN, ABC, NBC, and the Science Channel. And what’s really interesting about today’s interview, is that he used me as his guinea pig. After teaching me his system live during the call, he took me through an incredible challenge that demonstra

  • Take Control of Your Brain, Take Control of Your Life With John Assaraf

    07/11/2019 Duration: 01h06min

    If there is one thing that I’ve learned over the past year from dealing with my health crisis, it’s that your thoughts literally create and control your destiny. You can use your thoughts to heal your body, to calm your mind, and to rapidly change your life for the better… I think Napoleon Hill nailed it when he titled his book, “Think and Grow Rich”... But if it was just that easy, why isn’t everyone walking around fit, happy, healthy, and rich? Why are the vast majority of people dealing with disease and stress, instead of living in their highest state of being? Well one of the reasons is that our brains process and create new mental circuits about a fearful or negative event, 10,000 times faster, than they do for a positive event. Our brains are wired to look for danger, and remember it. They are not naturally wired to focus on abundance, safety, and happiness. Once you’re aware of this, you’ll start to realize that retraining your brain takes a conscious effort. But once you learn how to control and direc

  • The Easy Way To Get More Testimonials With Patrick Tedjamulia

    31/10/2019 Duration: 35min

    As of a few weeks ago I noticed that my friend and previous guest on this show Brian Page, had amassed over 600 video testimonials for his online course which is something that you’ll rarely see. Getting 600 people to pull out their phone and record a video review of your product or service doesn’t happen on it’s own. There had to be an intentional process taking place behind the scenes, so I reached out to his business partner Blake and asked him what they were doing. Well it turns out they were using a new software tool called GetVideoPeel.com. GetVideoPeel is a simple online software service that makes it extremely easy for people to send you video testimonials and reviews. There’s no file editing, or need to upload to any kind of file-sharing or video hosting platform. One click to record, one click to submit, and that’s it. They even integrate a legal release form right into the process. I thought it was an absolutely brilliant idea so I reached out to the Founder of the service, Patrick Tedjamulia. Now

  • How To Make Millions Speaking From Stage With Pete Vargas

    23/10/2019 Duration: 58min

    I recently had the opportunity to sit down with a gentleman named Pete Vargas, and it turns out that over the past few years, Pete has become the go-to guy when it comes to anything and everything related to speaking from any kind of stage or platform… If you want to know how to craft an amazing talk that can move an audience... If you want to know how to craft an irresistible but casual, no pressure offer that can literally produce millions of dollars in sales in a single day... And if you want to learn how to get paid to speak from stages around the world, then Pete is your guy. And just to clarify, when Pete and I talk about speaking from stage, that includes speaking from an actual stage with a live audience, as well as speaking on a podcast, or a webinar. Well after he finished sharing a few stories with me about his work and what his clients have accomplished, I realized that I have been missing out on a massive, massive opportunity to make an impact, and grow my business. I’ve always known there were o

  • How Giving Gifts Can Be The Ultimate Marketing Strategy...With John Ruhlin

    17/10/2019 Duration: 48min

    We’ve all heard the saying that goes, “people will forget what you said, they will forget what you did, but they will never forget how you made them feel…” As we enter the season of giving and gratitude here in the US, sending gifts to our family members, friends, and customers is a tradition. Giving a gift to someone can be an incredibly powerful act, for better or for worse. As you’ll discover through the amazing stories you’ll hear today, when done thoughtfully and with care, sending a gift to someone can open the door to new relationships and opportunities in a way that nothing else can. It can create a bond and a connection with someone that can last a lifetime, and that will never be forgotten. But when done incorrectly, it can have the complete opposite effect that you desire… It can actually cause the recipient to feel like another sheep in the herd, misunderstood, unappreciated, or even disrespected. And unfortunately, most businesses shoot themselves in the foot every holiday season with impersonal,

  • ChiliPad: Why You Should Never Give Up…With Tara Youngblood

    09/10/2019 Duration: 54min

    During my health challenges this past year and the insane amount of insomnia caused by the toxic mold that had overtaken my body, I tried anything and everything that I could that might allow me to get some sleep… I tried dozens of supplements, I started using an Oura Ring to track my sleep, I installed blackout shades on all of my windows, meditated for almost an hour before bed, and started wearing blue-light blocking glasses… And all of these aids provided some kind of benefit, but very few helped as much as a product called the Chilipad. I heard about the Chilipad from Tim Ferriss a year or two ago, and that he’d become a massive fan of the product. Last year I purchased one as well, and it’s been a game-changer. The Chilipad circulates warm or cold water through a pad that you place under your sheets, and it keeps your body at the ideal temperature it needs to fall into a deep sleep pattern, which is when your body restores and heals itself. Well I have to say that I was absolutely thrilled to get the ch

    02/10/2019 Duration: 59min

    Have you ever wondered why you make the decisions with the best of intentions, that end up causing problems for you down the road? Have you wondered why it can be so hard to stop bad habits and replace them with healthier ones? Have you wondered why you tend to repeat the same choices, attract the same kind of relationships, or sabotage your success? Well today you’re going to find out the answers to all of these questions and more with thanks to our guest and one of the smartest people I’ve ever met, Adam Lyons. Adam has become one of the world’s biggest authorities on brain chemistry, and how affects the decisions that we all make on a daily basis. And I have to say that this interview is absolutely fascinating because Adam is about to pull back the curtain and give you a behind the scenes look at the neuro-chemistry that’s driving our decisions and behaviors at a subconscious level. All of the decisions that you make, and actions that you take are a result of your brain’s desire for five different chemical

  • How To Keep Your Crypto Safe…With Alan Kong

    27/09/2019 Duration: 54min

    Hey gang, if you have invested in Bitcoin or other crypto assets, and if you’re interested in that industry, you are going to love this interview. Now if you aren’t familiar with Binance, they are the largest and fastest-growing crypto exchange in the world. They launched in July of 2017, and in 2018 alone, they produced over $440 million in profits despite the bear market. Well, today we’re joined by their former Head of Growth, Alan Kong. Now what really caught my attention was an email I received that lead to this interview. It turns out that Alan was a student of mine and had gone through List-Grow and 7-Figure Sales Presentations during the past few years, providing him with skills that helped him land his position at Binance. I was obviously thrilled to know I was connected in any way to their amazing success story, so I asked Alan to jump on the podcast to talk about what he’s up to today, and the industry at large. Well, it turns out that Binance recently purchased a crypto wallet company called Trust

  • Dealing With Lawsuits and Legal Compliance with Peter Hoppenfeld.

    18/09/2019 Duration: 49min

    Today we’re going to talk about one of the most difficult topics when it comes to life and business… Having to sue someone, and getting sued. When I was young and naive’ one of my goals in life was to literally never have to deal with their of those situations. Well, guess what? Within the next few years, I found myself having to sue two different people for the first time in my life. Unfortunately, both of them had mental health problems. Their actions were unreasonable, their motives were to intentionally cause myself and my business harm, and they had no desire to find an actual remedy to the situation. They were not healthy people. They wanted conflict and that was their goal. So I called up some of my older and wiser mentors at the time, and they all said the same thing… Don’t pursue a lawsuit unless you absolutely must, but if you must, then go all in. So that’s what I did… It took almost a year in one case, and several years in the next, but I eventually won both cases. So why am I bringing all of this

  • This Simple Mental Exercise Stops Depression And Anxiety In Its Tracks…With Blair Dunkley

    04/09/2019 Duration: 01h06min

    Alright, so last week I posted what was easily the most detailed and vulnerable interview of my life where I walked you guys through my past year recovering from a mysterious traumatic brain injury, by taking advantage of all kinds of alternative therapies like EMDR, psychedelics, Katmine, neuro-bio feedback, and many more. Well during that interview, I also mentioned that a friend of mine taught me a mental exercise that literally helped save my life when nothing else was working. After a year of living with a body that was stuck in fight or flight… That was producing cortisol and adrenaline 24/7, I jumped on a call with today’s guest, Blair Dunkley. On that call, Blair walked me through a visualization technique that allows you to literally pull fear, anxiety, frustration, and depression right out of your body, providing you instant relief. I know it sounds a little crazy, but this simple mental exercise is what worked when everything else failed. Within 24 hours of using it, my cortisol stopped, the adrena

  • How Psychedelics Helped Save My Life…

    28/08/2019 Duration: 01h16min

    Well, this is it… This is the story that I’ve been waiting to tell you for over a year. If you’ve been a part of my audience for any time at all, you are probably aware that I suffered a mysterious brain injury in June of 2018 that almost killed me. I haven’t really shared anything more than that over the past 12 months for two reasons… First, we had no idea what happened, and I didn’t want to talk about it until we did because that’s really just not very helpful to anyone. And second, I wanted to wait until there was some kind of happy ending to this situation so that I could bring it around full circle and share what I learned from it. Well, thankfully I’m happy to say that we did figure out what took place about 3 months ago, and I have been getting better ever since. While I’m still not sleeping normally just yet, my brain is back online. I can think, I can speak, and my energy levels have started to return. And I’ll just say this… The culprit was shocking. This whole mess was caused by a household toxin

  • How To Invent A Product From Scratch…With Jason Wersland

    23/08/2019 Duration: 42min

    I have to say that I truly love interviews like the one we have today with Dr. Jason Wersland. Almost every great business success story has one thing in common… A single individual with a problem they couldn’t find a solution for, and the drive to go create one. It’s where garages are turned into workshops, and notepads into diaries of scratched out ideas and circled moments of eureka. And this is literally the story arch that Jason found himself in 2007 after a motorcycle accident. A chiropractor by profession, Jason’s pain from his injuries inspired him to invent a new kind of physical therapy for the body using nothing more than a few power tools from Home Depot, and his knowledge of biomechanics. A year later, he’d invented a completely new category of physical therapy product he called the Theragun. Today, Theragun’s are used by countless doctors and athletes around the world, and you are about to get the behind the scenes story of how it was invented, developed, and turned into a global success story.

  • How To Make A Fortune on AirBnb, Without Owning A Single Home… with Brian Page

    20/08/2019 Duration: 38min

    There are very, very few business opportunities out there that truly impress me these days, but what you’ll learn about today from our guest, Brian Page, is one of them.   A few years ago Brian found himself at a point in life where he needed a plan B.   His background was in real estate, but after the market crashed, he found himself on the sidelines.   As many people have over the past few years, he started looking into AirBnb, and saw a huge opportunity there, but there was one big problem…   He didn’t have the funds needed to buy a house that he could list on the platform.   I’ve often thought about buying and renting out properties on AirBnb as well, but I don’t want to spend a substantial amount of money to acquire them.   Well that’s when Brian came up with a solution that rocked my world…   Instead of buying properties, he rented them, and then placed them on the short-term markets of AirBNB, Home Away, and VRBO.   Each home might cost him $2,000 to rent, but he was making $6,000/mo from his AirBnb gu
