Productivity is best done in blocks. First, it is important to take care of yourself first things in the morning. 60 minutes of self-care gets you started for your day in 20-20-20 blocks. Our mind and our souls need to be taken care of just as much as our body. With the 60-60-30 approach, you are able to optimize your energy and take regular breaks allowing you to get more done in your day.

A BadassPreneur is someone who owns and runs a soul-satisfying business that magnetically attracts total strangers and turns them into raving fans. And in doing so, helps create a world free of preventable disease.

At its most fundamental level, the universal goal of any business is to attract strangers and turn them into customers. But there's more to it.

A useful metaphor to describe the process, popularised by Ash Maurya, is the customer factory. In this episode, Di-Di explains the thinking behind the customer factory. He also gives you two BadassPreneur challenges to help you implement this strategy in your own business.

For me, her tips on the power of building strategic partnerships with non-profits was a BIG Badass Idea.

In this episode, Di-Di summarizes the five evolution phases of a lifestyle business, in order to, once and for all, simplify it, clarify it, and thereby eliminate the immense confusion that exists out there in the world of lifestyle business development.

It’s very easy to get consumed in your own business and lose perspective, therefore, many people reason that business is chaotic and that every challenge is unique. In reality, business follows predictable phases of growth, and many challenges in each phase are common and solvable.

Knowing these phases can guide you towards the business you want and it can help you decide on the business legacy you want to leave behind.

Di-Di also challenges you to choose your legacy. He then dares you to take a moonshot and 10X your choice to the next level.

Creating a manifesto helps you clarify your business Dream, Vision, Purpose and Mission. It also gives you an easy way to share who you are and what your business stands for with others.

What It Means To Be a Badass

A real badass is driven by values such as responsibility, justice, honour, courage, compassion, humility, integrity, and selflessness, which pretty much disqualifies most every self-proclaimed badass out there. A badass is someone who does the dirty jobs, the jobs that other people don’t want to do, for example, our troops and inner-city teachers. A badass does what needs to be done, no matter how difficult it is, without complaint or need for fanfare. A badass doesn’t take the path of least resistance.

A badass is someone who stands up for the weak and oppressed, speaks the truth, and calls out those who lie, cheat, and steal. A badass is someone who takes a “hit for the team”, meaning puts others’ needs ahead of their own, whether a soldier in his platoon, a parent working two jobs to give her children a better life, or a CEO who cares more about his employees than his P & L statement during an economic crisis.

What it means to be a BadassPreneur

Being an entrepreneur can be lonely. Sometimes you think you’re crazy, trying to do something new. Something different. Something impossible. Often it’s something no one has ever done before. Getting to “no” on most days: No money. No takers. No understanding. No sleep.

Being a lifestyle entrepreneur in the wellness space is, I believe, harder than in other market places.

With our SHARED BIG VISION of ensuring optimal well-being for our planet’s citizens and a world free of preventable disease, we’re insurgents competing for the commanding heights of the healthcare economy, against incumbents who have amassed more wealth and power than most companies in history.

Collectively we will disrupt billionaire families, big pharma, government bureaucrats, and Old King WHO… and they don’t take too kindly to us meddling with their ‘authority monopoly’ and profits.

But here’s the caveat: Rebels rarely succeed by going solo.

The fight is too hard. The road too long. The friction too strong. Like little turtles hatching in the sand on a beach, there are too many gulls in the sky and too many sharks in the water. Our wellness businesses and practices need to be modelled, incubated, iterated and supported to emerge into the big blue ocean of preventative health.

That’s why I’m intent on advocating more innovative lifestyle business models and systems for implementing and running them: so that more wellness entrepreneurs can succeed. So that more creative collisions can occur. So that more wellness entrepreneurs, therapists and practitioners can find their first customer, their first hire, their first $10X month.

I’m intent on helping humanity by spreading wellness companies everywhere. And I want to do it in a kinder, more inclusive, and more cooperative than competitive way. This is not dog-eat-dog. It is a happy pack of kindred souls finding a path for ourselves and others to tread. Together we will all go further. Alone you might go faster. But it won’t be as much fun, nor as fruitful.

Welcome to the Introductory Episode of the BassPreneurs Podcast.

If you are an owner-operator of a lifestyle business stick around because we'll be sharing from-the-trenches insights, strategy, interviews, and advice for building a profitable soul-satisfying, lifestyle business of your dreams.

Whether you're starting a new lifestyle business or looking to revitalize an existing operation The Badasspreneurs Podcast will inspire and equip you to build a perfect soul-satisfying boutique lifestyle business that delights your clients, your family, and yourself.

Your host is Di-Di Hoffman  (pronounced Dee-Dee) it’s a nickname, and yes, it’s a funny story. 😂

DI-Di has deep roots in both the Green Industry and Wellness Industry.

Being an entrepreneur and change agent at heart he loves helping wellness entrepreneurs make our world a healthier and better place for everyone. Innovative wellness business models, client-focused value propositions, growth, collaboration, and setting and achieving BHAG’s (Big Hairy Audacious Goals) are core to his DNA.

Di-Di firmly believes that we don’t have to live in a dog-eat-dog world and that in fact, when the dogs learn to work together, they can accomplish much more than any of them could on their own.

Think of the incredible weight a team of sledge dogs can comfortably pull across the snow; no single dog can accomplish that. Thus, when you join forces with others – even those you’ve been trained to think of as your competitors – truly amazing things can happen.
