ENTREPRENEUR INTERVIEW: Life Doesn't Have To be Hard Introducing Jennifer Myers Jennifer Myers is our guest today to share her insights into running a successful business without that business running you. She is the founder of Gener8 Leadership Solutions, and also one of the 90 Day Divas, a coaching business she shares with two other ladies that all have been through the ups and downs of business and can ease the way to a better life. Which is exactly what she wanted but just a few years ago was a long way from experiencing what she now teaches. As she says "I've got an amazing personal story to share that totally suits YOUR philosophy – that life and business doesn't have to be HARD! As a matter of fact, I've just contributed to a book that will come out this month and my contribution is titled 'Life Doesn't Have to be Hard.' One night in early 2009 after a manic day, my husband and I looked at each and basically said 'Our life is totally running us – not the other way around. How did it get like this?!' We knew the balance in our lives had gotten skewed, and we knew we had to do something about it ASAP. How The Dots Joined Up For Jennifer To make a long story short(er), just 10 months after that 'OMG' moment, we had sold or given away everything we owned, packed 3 suitcases and 3 large boxes (talk about learning the difference between 'need' and 'want!) and purchased 3 one-way plane tickets to New Zealand without ever having visited there before. What started as a 'let's see if this works' move turned into a new way of life in a new country, and we've never looked back! She has now been a Certified Business and Leadership Coach and Trainer for over a decade now where she helps develop leaders and teams learn how to communicate more effectively I often encourage my clients to step outside their comfort zones when it comes to activities that will help them take their businesses forward, and it's so rewarding to watch them grow and develop! So when business is simply a series of decisions that we take to grow and establish our reach, why do most people never consider the impact on their own personal lives? And what would she say was the biggest learning curve as she finally decided that "Life Doesn't Have To Be Hard"? Well lets find out as we bring onto the show to start joining up dots with the one and only Jennifer Myers.

ENTREPRENEUR INTERVIEW: Fighting Back From A Sacking Ryan Hanley is our guest today ready to be interviewed on the Steve Jobs inspired Join Up Dots podcast. He was first on the show back in May 2014 and on that show we talked about how he was full on busy With Insurance being just one thing on his resume, he was creating an online marketing production line, that was simply exploding on all platforms. Type in his name and you would find him actively participating as a blogger, public speaker, Podcaster, Internet marketer, published author and the list goes on. Weaving through all these different areas was the art of storytelling and creating content that sales. How The Dots Joined Up For Ryan Now it appears he joined up dots and when back to an environment that he knew better than most – small business insurance. He has created Rogue Risk that helps people get the insurance that they need and also explains why they need it too As he says "At Rogue Risk, one of our core values is "No Customer Left Behind." No small business owner should be left to fend for themselves because their account is "hard to place" or their insurance premiums are "too small to be profitable." We are NOT scared to put in the extra work necessary to find the insurance you need to protect your business. In truth, "No Customer Left Behind" is more than just a core value, it's the filter by which we make every decision in our business. We call this The Rogue Risk Way. So is this business the one that was always waiting for him, once he joined up his dots to the point that things made sense? And where would he mark himself against where he wants to be? 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 master of Content Warfare Mr Ryan Hanley.
