  • Michael O'Neal from the Solopreneur Hour Podcast

    Michael O'Neal was guest number seven on the "Cool Things

    Entrepreneurs Do" Podcast. He is continuing to do great things as a
    leader in the world of podcasting, and his show is has continued to
    be a top ranked business podcast.

    In this episode Michael shares his thoughts on being a solopreneur,
    and tells more of his own journey to success. He founded his
    podcast as a way to reach people and talk with people in a variety
    of industries. His show has not only become a core part of his
    business, but it has opened up countless doors and allowed him to
    build his network and brand.

    It is rarely easy to be a solopreneur. There are many upsides, but
    there is many tough parts as well. His efforts to reach success has
    taken a long time. You cannot just create courses to get rich on a
    new platform without having experience. Too many people jump on the
    band wagon of Periscope (or other new tools) and try to sell
    classes on how to get rich, without having ever gotten rich using
    that tool.

    Michael would not want to be launching a podcast in today's
    environment. It is so competitive, and it is hard to convert people
    to listen in a world with so many people hosting shows. It is very
    noisy out there. His show is about to hit the three year mark, and
    the Solopreneur Hour now has nearly 3 million download (and is
    growing). He wants people to know it is slow growth if you want to
    reach success, and you need to honor what has come before (for
    podcasts, it is old media: TV, radio, film, etc...). As the skill
    sets of podcasters gets better, the more people will listen to
    podcasts.

    This is a great conversation that will inspire you to embrace your
    own journey as an entrepreneur, solopreneur, or anyone with the
    entrepreneurial spirit.

  • Busy Busy Busy - How to get out of the loop of stress and busy with Eliz Greene

    Eliz Greene is an expert helping people get past being busy and stressed while helping them become more productive.

    She comes from a family of entrepreneurs, as both her parents owned small businesses, and her first jobs were working in each of those companies. After college she spent time in the insurance business and non-profit sector, but soon launched out on her own to start a dance studio.

    In 2000 everything changed. Eliz suffered a massive heart attack while 7 months pregnant with twins. Both she and her daughters survived, but it changed her life forever.

    For more than a decade Eliz has been a leading expert educating people on heart health and how to manage stress. Through her work she discovered there was little data on job stress and the different ways men and women deal with the pressures of work and life.

    Eliz Greene has now embarked on a multi-phase study and the results are fascinating. She now speaks to association and corporate audiences on managing stress and handling the facade of work / life balance in a world that rewards being busy (often regardless of the results).

    If you have ever felt overly busy and stressed out you will relate to the discussion on this episode.
