Dare to Launch

In 2016, Tai Lopez made a video that didn't just go viral – it changed the gme.

It took a fresh approach, and it caught the entire marketing world off guard.

In this clip from Dare to Launch, Dylan Frost (who's studied virality like almost no one I know) breaks down the big lessons we can take away from it… even in 2025.

It's a mini-masterclass on seizing your audience's attention and staying one step ahead of the competition (and if you remember the ad, don't worry – it's nothing to do with flashy cars or bookshelves!).

Sometimes, it feels like the news, social media, and outside events are working overtime, trying to pull us into a storm of negativity. But here's one of the most important things I've learned as an entrepreneur – I don't have to participate.

We don't have to react to the storm. We have the entrepreneurial advantage – we can create our own reality.

That's why in this week's episode of Dare to Launch, Chris, Dan, and I explore mindset shifts and strategies you can use to control your narrative, turn challenges into opportunities, and thrive… regardless of what's going on in the world.

Here's what we cover:

• The ultimate superpower entrepreneurs have that traditional jobs don't

• Why big-picture crises don't actually affect your business as much as you think (and often present big opportunities)

• The simple trick I use to stop social media from draining my energy

• What decades of meditation have taught me about success as an entrepreneur

• The five-word mantra I've used to thrive through every economic storm – from the dot-com crash to the pandemic

… and much more!

You don't have to be at the mercy of outside forces. This episode will show you how to take back control, turn chaos into clarity, and create your own momentum.

How far would you go to follow your calling?

For Thembi Bheka, the answer was "the other side of the world." She left the comfort of Canada to return to Zimbabwe with one mission – to help women escape poverty and abusive relationships by giving them the tools to achieve financial independence and transform their lives.

Her story is raw, inspiring, and a powerful testament to how one person's purpose can fuel incredible change.

In this week's clip from Dare to Launch, Thembi opens up about how she found her purpose and overcame incredible challenges to create life-changing opportunities – for herself and others.

Some days, it can feel like you're spinning your wheels. Like no matter how hard you try, the progress just isn't there.

It's easy to get discouraged when that happens… unless you realize that those small steps you take today can be the exact steps that lead to breakthroughs tomorrow.

The key is learning to recognize them… and knowing when to double down and keep going.

This week on Dare to Launch, we dive into mindsets and techniques you can use to turn slow progress, setbacks, and even failures into fuel that drives you forward.

We explore:

• How I stay motivated even when it feels like I'm making zero progress (yes, it happens to me too!)

• The #1 question I ask my skiing coach that's completely transformed my progress (if you're a coach, use this with your clients and they'll probably experience game-changing results too)

• The biggest thing stopping people from taking action – and how I solved it for myself

• Why focusing on small wins leads to big breakthroughs – faster than you think

… and more!

This episode will help you realize that setbacks don't mean "stop" – they're signs you're growing. And give you practical techniques you can use to turn setbacks into stepping stones.

Have you ever felt like the business you built for freedom… is more like a jail?

That's exactly what happened to Olivier Roland. He built a successful company… but it began to take over his life.

We're talking 60-70 hour weeks. Barely any vacations. And no way out. Until two lessons gave him the slap in the face he needed.

These lessons didn't just reshape how he saw his business – they gave him a blueprint for transforming it into his ticket to freedom.

In this clip from Dare to Launch, we discuss:

• The books that helped Olivier escape from his "self-made jail"

• Why so many entrepreneurs feel trapped by their own business… and the easy way out

• Why working harder might not get you to the next stage of your journey (but a simple mindset shift will)

• The one secret you should take from this – or any other "How to" – podcast

If you've ever felt like you've created a job… instead of a business that allows you to live life on your terms, you'll get a lot out of this.

A couple months ago, we had a bold idea on my team. What if we took our fan-favorite PLF Live® event… and we threw an encore?

What would that look like? And would it still be as powerful?

Despite the tech gods throwing us the odd curveball or two, we found that we were still able to deliver an incredible experience with the new format.

And now the dust has settled, Chris, Dan, and I are diving into what we learned hosting this new type of live event… and how you can apply it to your own business.

🚀Want my personal help with your launch? 🚀

Live events have always been game-changers for me. That's why I'm so excited about our Launch Intensive. It's an in-person event limited to just 40 entrepreneurs where you'll spend two full days with me and my Campaign Design Team as we build out your launch.

If you've ever wondered what it would be like to have me work on your launch… this is your chance. But there are just a few spots remaining, so you need to get in fast…

Have you ever wondered what separates good launches… from the truly great ones?

Over the summer, I hosted an exclusive high-end workshop. Over three days, I personally guided a small group of entrepreneurs through building their launches (along with my personal Campaign Design Team).

It was an absolute joy… and we walked away with some really cool insights into what it takes to create a winning launch.

This week on Dare to Launch, Dan (from my Campaign Design Team) and I discuss some of the biggest takeaways and lessons from the workshop – along with some of the biggest breakthroughs we witnessed people have while planning their launches.

If you've ever felt like your launch could use a boost – or want to take your launches to the next level – this episode is for you. You'll discover the power of…

• A clear focus on the one thing that makes your launch planning easier

• Simple, small changes that help turn blindspots into opportunities

• "If it ain't broke… improve it" – how testing and refining the best-performing elements of your launch could lead to your next big breakthrough

… and much more.

🚀Want hands-on help with your launch? 🚀

Two days, in-person with Jeff and his Campaign Design Team, planning your launch.

Have you ever faced a moment where you had to reinvent everything?

Back in 2009, Nick Ortner found himself in that exact spot...

Money was tight, time was tighter, and he needed a way to make things work – fast. What came next was an idea born out of sheer necessity…

In this clip from Dare to Launch, we unpack the untold story of how the online summit was born.

You'll hear:

• The unorthodox decision that changed everything – and why breaking the rules sometimes leads to the best breakthroughs.

• How free content became the ultimate sales tool – and built unshakable trust with an audience hungry for real transformation.

• Why failure was the unexpected foundation of success – and the lesson it holds for anyone ready to innovate.

• The secret to making people tune in – and stay hooked – even when you're giving it all away for free.

Whether you're navigating challenges or looking for your next big idea, this clip will inspire you to take action. And it's a powerful reminder that the best ideas often come when you're out of options.

Ever wondered how to grow your email list without spending a dime on ads? Rachel Miller has the answer. In this clip from Dare to Launch, she reveals how she used a simple Facebook group to grow a list of 63,000 engaged subscribers – organically.

Whether you're just starting out or looking to scale, this episode is packed with actionable insights to help you turn your audience into a thriving community – and a powerful business asset.

Building an email list is one of the most important assets for any online business. And Rachel's story is proof that you don't need expensive ad campaigns or fancy lead magnets to grow a massive list.

She shares her step-by-step method for using a Facebook group to drive engagement and organically collect tens of thousands of high-quality emails. From leveraging Facebook's algorithm to connecting with the right audience, she explains how she created a self-sustaining system that delivers both quantity and quality.

Listen in as we discuss:

• Why an email list is still your most valuable business asset.

• How to turn an engaged Facebook group into a lead-generation machine.

• The simple strategies Rachel used to collect 63,000 emails without spending a penny.

• Why quality matters as much as quantity – and how to attract the right audience.

There's one mindset shift that could make or break your launch. And it's often the difference between just having an idea… and actually executing a launch that brings in life-changing sales.

In this week's episode of Dare to Launch, three of my Launch Coaches – Jolene, Barry, and Julie – break down this shift, so you can see how to turn your idea into a real, paying business. And they should know…

Between them, they've debriefed hundreds of launches. They've seen "under the hood" of many 6, 7, and 8-figure businesses. They've seen all there is to see… and they know what works.

They'll show you how to shift from idea to execution, including:

• Two quick questions to test your offer – if you can answer "YES" to both, then you KNOW you have an offer people are willing to pay for

• The mistake most new business owners make when trying to figure out what their audience wants (it's not what you think – literally!)

• How to speak your customer's language so they recognize you as the best – and ONLY – solution

• Why a saturated market isn't a red flag… and why it can actually be a sign you're on the right track

• The simple language tweak that helps you connect with your audience immediately and makes them feel like you truly "get" them.

… and more!

If you're ready to discover what your audience really wants, so you can go and create it… and launch, check out this week's episode…
