  • Podcast 110: Chris Taylor: How To be Actionable Through A Book
    Todays guest solopreneur is a man on a mission to help the world self develop, progress, and move to a better future, all at a time and pace that is convenient for them.
    He started his first business at the age of twelve, and since then has travelled the world whilst pursuing his passion of leadership and team culture development on a larger scale.
    In 2008, he founded Actionable Books, which led to him winning in 2009 Entrepreneurial Spirit Award, by using business books as a platform for leader and team growth.
    But knowing that by utilising technology, that is both easy to get and easy to carry around, he could grow his brand even further, in 2010 he went online, and launched actionable interviews where he has conducted interviews with such big thinkers such as Seth Godin, Susan Cain and Sir Ken Robinson.
    If this sounds like success after success, then think again, as with all entrepreneurs the story is one of success, failures, stumbles and falls.
    So lets bring onto the show to start joining up the dots of his life, the one and only, Mr Chris Taylor. | Show notes: http://joinupdots.com/podcast/chris-taylor-110/

  • Podcast 109: Michael Jacobs: A Man Who Consciously Asks The Question “Why Am I Here” Everyday
    Todays guest solopreneur is someone that I have wanted to have on the show for quite awhile. In fact since the very first episodes of Join Up Dots were released.
    But due to him hitting his stride, travelling through South America, and generally having a kick ass life I only get to speak to him now.
    But hey, doesn’t that just add more dimensions to a life that is already perfect for a show like mine.
    He is a man who is inspired to find the true definition of “Consciousness” and how we can all become more conscious to build a better life for ourselves.
    He wants us to overcome the self limiting fears that root us to the spot, and instead focus on the “Go Getter” mentality, which is the way to create the success that we all want, and of course he is living.
    So how did he get to the point in his life when he realised that mind-set was the key to everything?
    How did he find travelling through the jungles of South America, without WIFI, Starbucks and all the other comforts that we rely on daily?
    And why did he feel the need to shave off all his hair recently?
    Well lets find out as we bring on to the show to start joining up the dots of his life, the one and only Mr Michael Jacobs | Show notes: http://joinupdots.com/podcast/michael-jacobs-109/

  • Podcast 107: Adam Urbanski: Shares How To Silence The Imposter And Grasp Success
    Todays guest started life in Poland, and it was fair to say that he has come a long way since then, both Geographically and financially.
    Arriving in the United States of America with just $194.00 dollars in ihs pocket and a sprinkling of English he set to work with a passion.
    The entrepreneurial bug has always been a keen element which makes him who he is, so it was with little surprise, but a lot of hard work that he transformed his finances by creating a series of business opportunities around California.
    First of all he co-owned a collection of bagel shops, and then moved onto running a multi-million dollar business that includes consulting, coaching, training, and information publishing.
    But there was of course so many stumbles, falls and triumphs between them. Isn’t that what makes a story interesting after all.
    But if you think that our guest is now simply a money making machine, who values wealth against anything else then think again.
    He believes that through hard work, perseverance, talent and passion we can all design our lives to be what we want….the purest definition of success.
    As he says “When I say success I don’t just mean money. Don’t get me wrong – financial rewards from your business are essential but they’re not enough!
    Health, family and friends, spirituality, contribution to others – that’s what combined all together creates balanced, fulfilled life. And living such life makes you an irresistibly attractive “success magnet”.
    So lets see how this happily married father of two, has succeeded so remarkably when starting with so little, by bringing onto the show to start joining up the dots of his life, the remarkable Adam Urbanski. | Show notes: http://joinupdots.com/podcast/adam-urbanski-107/

  • Podcast 106: Jasper Ribbers: The Travelling Dutchman Reveals The Secrets Of Online Freedom
    Todays guest is man who has learnt the secret of travelling the world, whilst being funded by something he already had.
    If that sounds a bit cryptic all will be revealed in the show.
    But its true to say that todays guest does not follow a normal path in life
    Starting his adult working life after finishing his education in the Netherlands, he worked for an arbitrage trading firm for 6 years.
    It was a normal kind of job that many of us have endured. Long hours, boring work, but hey at the end of the day it paid.
    And isn't that why most of us started going to work in the first place anyway.
    But he knew that he wanted more.
    So at the age of 32, he revaluated his life goals and came up with a question to ponder.
    Did he want to slave away at a mildly stimulating profession so he could perch atop a pile of assets at the ripe age of 65?
    And after asking himself that question he knew it was time to leap into the unknown.
    So in March of 2010, with no backup plan or prospect of gainful employment, he quit his job to pursue his lifelong dream: ultimate freedom.
    How exciting is that?
    So how many of you listeners would be brave enough to do just that, and of course was our guest brave or simply frightened that life was slipping away?
    Well lets find out, as bring onto the show to start joining up the dots of his life, the one and only, Jasper Ribbers | Show notes: http://joinupdots.com/podcast/adam-gilbert-105/

  • Podcast 105: Adam Gilbert: Taking Fitness And Health To A Whole New Audience
    Have you ever been in corporate land and wondered why you are feeling sluggish and overweight.
    Do you wonder why you are reaching for that sixth doughnut just because its sitting three feet away from you then todays show is for you.
    Our guest solopreneur today was in a similar position, before taking the leap of faith.
    Working for Ernst and Young , back in 2007, he realised that he wasn't happy with his body, but lacked the time and energy to do something about it. And he was not alone.
    It seemed that his work colleagues all wanted to have a fitness timetable, that fitted around their lifestyles and would ask our guest for tips.
    And after hearing the same request for the millionth time, he realized something.
    Something had to be done. He had to set out to create a program that would solve this problem in a big way. He had to follow his passions.
    He loved helping people. he loved writing and is a health and fitness fanatic (since the 4th grade).
    Bang. He slammed them all together and created the online company mybodytutor
    So lets bring onto the show to provide us with the perfect plans, and of course to join up dots, the one and only Adam Gilbert! | Show notes: https://awesound.com/@joinupdotsdaily/podcast-105-adam-gilbert?auid=a6yqWwC4

    Todays guest is a lady on a mission to empower the females of the world to...well rock!Being an entrepreneur herself she was often struck by the isolated way that women seem to operate within the business world, and so set out to build a platform for them to be heard.

  • Podcast103: Brent Kelly: A Man Who Is Building Integrity Into The Sales Arena
    Todays guest solopreneur is someone who might at first glance be thought of as a minority group.
    He believes that sales is a honourable profession.
    Wait I hear you say...surely I didn't hear the words Sales and honourable in the same sentence?
    But our guest has since 2000 focused his time, passions and energy's in the world of Insurance Brokerage, and has come out the other end hardened by the work that he has performed.
    As he says he was bloodied, bruised, kicked in the teeth, chewed-up, and spit-out.
    But instead of becoming cynical to this work, he has instead developed a passion for helping others learn from his successes, mistakes and backstory.
    The owner of Empowering Sales, and founder of “The Insurance Coach.” he loves bringing value to salespeople, teams, and business owners through writing, speaking, classroom, and online training.
    Focusing on four main areas, Sales training, Attitude, Connections and Loyalty.
    So how has he remained true to his values?

    And being a father, husband and full time employee too, how does he find the time to bring it all together?

  • Podcast 101: Dina Proctor: From The Darkest Of Places To A World of Light x3
    Todays guest, joining us on the Join Up Dots podcast interview is Dina Proctor, a lady who has been on a harrowing journey of hitting absolute rock bottom, and finding her way back to the top.
    At the end of 2008, her life had spiralled out of control as she battled everyday with alcohol addiction, food issues and suicidal depression.
    She was in a mess and could not have been lower.
    Trying everything Dina Proctor possibly could to pull herself up and get herself going, she fell time and time again. Nothing worked for her, and she was lost.
    But by unintentional action she created her own salvation, as she began an amazing transformational programme called “3×3 Mediation” which has changed her life and the lives of her clients time and time again.
    From weight loss and banishing addictive cravings to reconstructing relationships, this easy and yet incredibly effective method has caught the attention and support of Jack Canfield and Bruce Lipton among others, and the media.
    Now with a day filled with writing, public speaking, coaching and being madly happy, I am delighted to have her on the show today.
    But how did she change her life so dramatically, on something apparently so simple?
    How did Dina thankfully not enter in to suicidal actions that would have meant that the world would not have got the gifts that we now have from her.
    Well let’s bring onto the show to start joining up dots, as we discuss the words of Steve Jobs with the one and only Dina Proctor | Show notes: http://joinupdots.com/podcast/101-dina-proctor/

  • Archive 200: Sean Swarner: Training The World How To Have The Mindset To Take Action And Smash Goals

    If you are looking for a story on huge action taking, then todays guest for the milestone 200th episode of the Join Up Dots Steve Jobs inspired archive podcast, is the only man that I wanted for the job......in fact I held back from recording this show so he could appear.

    And why did I feel that way?

    Well after 199 episodes of Join Up Dots, hopefully you will feel like I do that they are motivational, inspiring, challenging and the kind of content that makes you believe that everything is possible.

    They teach you that careers are not given to you, but are instead made.

    They teach you how to set goals, take action and have the mindset to have the kind of lifestyle that is more than just earning money.

    They teach you how to live a life that is your dreamlife.

    But if this is the first show that you have listened to then...believe me, just hearing about this guys story will leave you feeling that its time to get going.

    When he was a young man at ages 13 and 16, this wannabe entrepreneur received news that would knock most people off their feet.

    He had cancer and not just one type but two completely different types, which left him listening to his last rights and waiting to die.

    He was given only fourteen days grace, but instead of passing on as expected he astounded the medical community when he survived both these brutal diseases and also a medically-induced coma for a year.

    This courage to beat the odds and take on a challenge that many deemed as impossible left him with the realisation that no challenge would ever be too great or any peak too high.

    He proved this theory when he crested the peak of the highest point in the world (Mount Everest) with only partial use of his lungs.

    As the first cancer survivor to do so, he then decided to continue climbing and has since topped the highest peaks in Africa, Europe, South America, Australia, Antarctica, and North America.

    But this isn't a story about a man with super human strength or support, a solopreneur with the inside track to succcess.

    This is a story of total belief in himself and what he can achieve.

    Inspiring us all to dream bigger and go for the impossible.

    He is voted one of the top eight most inspirational people of all time, so it with great delight to bring onto the Steve Jobs inspired podcast how to start joining up dots, the one and only solopreneur and adventurer Sean Swarner.
