Pink Billionaire JB Own on lessons from the back of 5,000 km ‘fun’ bike ride, ignoring numbers and a chat with David Bowie. With energy, vision, drive and a feminine flair she has grown multiple businesses while overcoming huge obstacles.
Now as publisher of the highly successful Ignite book series, founder of the Ignite Institute, philanthropist, speaker and inspirational trainer, JB loves to ignite others to their best ever life while uplifting the planet too.
Most recently, she and her husband cycled 5,000 km across Canada to smash through her limiting beliefs about what she could do and how she could get into such good shape that at 50 she could make the cover of Vogue magazine.
We discuss topics including:
How, despite having life-long hang-ups about not being sporty and with very little training she set off to cycle across Canada on a tandem bicycle to see if her vision and determination would make it possible
That by mentally preparing for this and visioning it she was able to get buy-in from her body to make the trip, and cycling up to 200km a day in inhospitable terrain, possible and easy at timesWisdom from the back of her bike, including:
That a commitment and taking responsibility that you have signed up for something means that you can find the mental and physical strength to make it happen.
How to love having to pivot and sidebar.
Her AhHa moment of how much emphasis we put on the numbers. On the numbers on a scale or our bank account or success. And how we forget about the joy of the journey or the achievements along the way and that we give ourselves permission for how we feel.
Her journey to get over deep feelings of ‘not good enough’.
The most incredible lesson she gained when working in the movie business and spending lunch on a curbside with David Bowie.
The future of igniting possibilities for her, her family, new authors and all those who want to sign up to be the most ignited versions of themselves.Connect with me on LinkedIn and join the conversation
