Erica Lasan knows what it’s like to be doing “a lot of things” but still feel like you’re doing a lot of nothing. As a multi-passionate creative, she was simultaneously running an online jewelry business, a blog, a podcast, producing, creating, and writing content, all while pursuing her dreams of being an on-air host.

But even with all this, she felt unfulfilled and unsatisfied. She was chasing many passions, but she wasn’t grounded and aligned in an understanding of her purpose. Discovering her purpose transformed her life, and now she's on a mission to help others going through the same transitional phases find their why and radical joy. One open conversation at a time, Erica is your personal cheerleader on your JOYrney to purpose. 

Prior to starting her journey as an entrepreneur, Christal Allen-Harrahil was in the higher education sector for about 10 years. She believed that was her calling– that she’d be a dean, a VP, or a president of a university one day. But during her last three years in education, she began to realize that her ladder was leaning on the wrong building. That wasn’t her climb. 

Christal wasn’t sure what she was meant to do, but sooner or later, she ended up right where she needed to be. Today she’s a Life & Relationship Coach empowering women in real estate to create fulfilling relationships through her signature A-B-C process. She found her climb, and her calling. This is her story.

What do you get when you cross a former teacher, a recovering course junkie, and a tech geek? The answer is Joanna May! 

Joanna helps course creators use instructional design and email automation to create evergreen course experiences that mirror live courses–and with a background in Instructional Design and nearly 2 decades of experience in education, she’s the secret weapon all course creators need.

Joanna’s episode with us here on Creator Stories is long overdue because...fun fact, she’s been working with Interact since 2018. You might recognize her from quiz coaching or The Quiz Collective Community where she helps Interact quiz creators with all things tech. She’s truly a tech wizard and we are so excited to share her journey from her beginnings as a teacher to an entrepreneur today on Creator Stories. 

On today’s episode we are thrilled to be here with Dan Bennett, the Antipreneur and Founder of Video For Entrepreneurs, a platform that helps entrepreneurs & startups learn to look and sound great on video. 

Dan’s Antipreneur moniker comes from a place of pushing against the status quo–which is something he’s done throughout his journey as an entrepreneur. From finding his love for video and storytelling through shooting music videos for his band, to walking away from a successful career in engineering…it’s been a wild ride. 

Entrepreneurship is tough. And Dan’s not here to sugarcoat it. Tune in to hear his story about becoming the Antipreneur.
