Today on Idea to Reality we cover everything digital. Coming from a man who had his first computer in the 2nd grade and learned how to code and build websites at a very young. Anthony Delgado comes onto the show and talks to us about the power of technology in our current economy.

Anthony was self-taught for the majority of his life and one major thing he realized on his journey was that instead of being stuck in analysis paralysis and watching thousands of videos and reading hundreds of books. He got out into the marketplace and tested.

Saw what worked what didn’t work, learned how to pivot and learn from his mistakes and failures. Anthony also had an incredible experience working with one of the biggest entrepreneurs of our age Gerard Adams. He helped Gerard build up his current business Fownders into what we see today.

During his time at Fownders, hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico. Anthony found himself being called to lend his heart and help to the people of Puerto Rico. He started off by buying a pallet of water to send out and he then found out that the supplies he and his friends sent out along with thousands of others were actually stuck at the border and not even being distributed.

This is when Anthony had the urge to go Disrupt Puerto Rico. He quit his job at Fownders and went to the island and gave away 300 solar lights, food, water and so much more. With some family ties to this beautiful island, Anthony knew this is where his future was. So, as of the last few months, Anthony has moved to Puerto Rico full time and has launched Disrupt Puerto Rico to help teach people everything digital including coding, hacking and digital marketing.

Anthony is literally helping to breathe life back into the devastated economy of Puerto Rico by the work he is doing and the jobs he is creating. More importantly, he is helping to transform the island into the first digital hub of the Caribbean through Disrupt and the school he created called the Caribbean Institute of technology.

Top 3 Takeaways:

1. Don’t be scared to mess up, don’t be scared for your people to mess up. They will and you will just make sure you are learning from it and pushing forward.
2. If you want to do massive things then utilize other people, hire on a team, ask for help, learn how to delegate.
3. Get out in the market and actually test things out, see what works and what doesn’t work. Do not get stuck in analysis paralysis.

Thank you all so much for taking the time to listen enjoy!

This week’s guest Sean Douglas has an absolutely incredible story. It’s not like the ones you hear where he just worked hard and then got rich. This is a MUCH deeper more heartfelt story than I have heard up until this point on Idea to Reality.

Sean had an extremely tough childhood filled with abuse, alcoholism, and so much more. The first real chance he had to remove himself from that situation he did exactly that and joined the air force when he was only 18 years old.

Something interesting happened throughout Sean’s service in the air force. He started off as a big drinker, partier and all around just making poor choices when he first joined. As you can imagine a major reason for this was his rough childhood experiences coming back to the surface.

After being like this for quite a few years Sean hit rock-bottom in September of 2008 after his house burned down and his wife took the kids away. That night Sean put a gun in his mouth to end it all. His life was filled with toxic relationships, negative self-talk, absolutely 0 belief in himself and without a purpose in life. He believed that the world would be a better place without him.

That night, Sean received multiple calls from people in his support system and multiple people came over to ensure sure he did not take his own life because they all saw his worth even when he did not.

After some real therapy and suicide awareness, Sean realized that he never felt valued. He did not do anything of value because he did not feel valued. This was a key moment of awareness.

At this time Sean had a very negative mindset, and then, his mindset began to change. I AM worth something, I CAN do good. His great work ethic was pointed out to him by multiple people, he then went on to overcome drinking, smoking and began the journey of winning back his life and reputation.

Years later, Sean has fulfilled one of his dreams of becoming a public speaker and delivering his first TEDx talk. Today, Sean speaks around the country, has his own radio show “Life Transformation Radio”, and a business called the Success Corps which helps to unlock your true potential and elevate your life to new heights.

From psychology to mindset, to resilience training, we talk about it all and Sean gives us actionable steps on what we can do today to take ourselves to that next level.

Sean is inspiring people all over the world to take control of their lives and avoid the dark, dangerous path that he found himself on multiple times throughout his life.

Today on Idea to Reality we have a very exciting guest and a man who is literally revolutionizing the way we learn, Mr. Brandon Hakim.

During his college years at USC, Brandon had a realization that he was literally learning more from the books he was reading in his spare time compared to the thousands of dollars a year that was spent on a college tuition.

He just could not wrap his head around this. So, Brandon set out to build out a curriculum and specific courses that would help people just like him, make the most out of their learning career and absorb as much applicable information as possible during that time.

Today, Brandon has read over 1,000 books and helped more than 100,000 people with his life-changing business called Insider School. At Insider School they use a proprietary technique called "Insider Learning" to go through thousands of pages of expert material, find the gold in each one, weave it all together, and deliver it to you in an easy, digestible format that helps you take immediate action.

There are multiple areas to focus on in Insider School including; Insider Learning, Insider Productivity, Insider Health and Insider Persuasion. Each one of these areas is key when it comes to bringing an idea into reality and I highly encourage you to check out Insider School.

On the show today we have Rachel Jones, an incredibly humble, down to earth person, who ditched her 9-5 job as a nurse and ended up creating an extremely successful travel blog - “Hippie In Heels” - with over 1 Million views per month!

Rachel has a very motivating story that will leave you inspired to find your passion, pursue your dreams and live the life you deserve! 

We often hear about the "laptop lifestyle" and working from anywhere in the world, making it sound superficial and almost not possible. Rachel's story is much different.

She takes us on her journey from leaving her “secure” 9-5 job as a nurse to making the decision to back-pack in India which then led her on an amazing series of events that ultimately led her to create “Hippie In Heels”, an ultra-successful travel blog. Rachel has experienced some things that many of us can only dream of or watch on National Geographic.

One major thing that Rachel did on her journey was jumped & trusted that everything she did would fall into place. Making these leaps of faith over the past 6 years has led her to live a life that she would have never imagined when she first got on that plane to India.

Rachel had no idea how she was going to make money, where she would go, who she would stay with, however, she TRUSTED the process, and everything aligned for her. Today she begins a new chapter in her life and blogging career in the beautiful city of Merida in Mexico.

Her blog has been selected as “Top 50 Travel Blogs” internationally by the Expeditioner, Excellence in Blogging: Best Individual Travel Blog by SATTE Awards, and MANY MORE. She has been featured in Marie Claire Mexico, Cosmopolitan Spain, ELLE Magazine Netherlands, TripAdvisor, Buzzfeed, Huffington Post and so many more places.

After listening to this incredible story, you will feel absolutely inspired to make that leap of faith that has been on your heart for all this time.

On the show today we have Levi King. Levi is an incredible serial entrepreneur who has started and scaled multiple small businesses.

One thing I love about Levi is his humble beginnings. He grew up in a town of 300 people on a small farm with no TV or anything. He has created quite a different life for himself now and is a frequent contributor to big publications like Entrepreneur and INC, some of his childhood favorites (links below).

During his entrepreneurial journey, Levi came to the realization that there was one massive obstacle across the board while running these companies.

That obstacle was acquiring funding. Levi now has secured over 30 business loans and funding throughout his life. You can pretty much call him an expert in the field.

In this episode, Levi explains how he leveraged his experiences from these initial businesses to implement them to help create this behemoth and current company NAV, which is helping small businesses around the world solve this funding problem head on!

Awareness and knowledge are key to overcome this obstacle and Levi does everything he can to provide that for you while helping you secure the right business loan for your company.

Levi talks about being authentic, business psychology staying transparent and true to yourself in order to make big things happen for you and your business. 

On top of all that we got into Levi's venture capital funding rounds which he has now undergone multiple rounds. How he got the funding, what he did to put himself in that situation and what he actually did with the funds once they were received.

There is so much to learn and enjoy in this episode I know you will love it!

Sit back, relax and enjoy with Mr. Levi King.
