  • Ep. 146 ~ Balancing Emotions in Business ~ John Castagnini
    “Everyone of us owe it to ourselves to hone the skill in so that we can perform in the zone on a continuous basis!” John Castagnini
    Today podcast listeners we have the founder of ThankGodI, John Castagnini on the show. ThankGodI is a movement that John started to help people understand the value of appreciation in all circumstances. When you visit ThankGodI.com you will see quotes from people that say things like “Thank God I have Cancer.”, “Thank God I was abused.”, “Thank God I was raped., and “Thank God I was a heroin addict.” Quotes like these can be very shocking to people and one might say to themselves, “How can someone thank God they were raped?” John wants all people to become aware of the empowerment of being appreciative of all events that happen in our lives and he has many stories from people who can be a testament to this.
    “Is it failing or is it changing?” John Castagnini
    I first ran into John when he was speaking at a conference in northern California. His speech was incredible and very inspirational. Needless to say, he had the crowd on the edge of their seats and is why I wanted to get him on the show. I believe the inspiration that he wants to give to the world has created a movement to truly help others while building a business at the same time. He is a perfect example of how this is possible. and without further adieu here is today's show with John Castagnini.
    When we tap into our uniqueness, our purpose, our vision…we activate the prefrontal cortex…so we literally access our creativity and genius that way. Now taking that genius and channeling it into a business is its own art.” John Castagnini

  • Ep. 145 ~ Building an Online Business from Hostels Around the World ~ Leon Hoffmann
    On Bootstrapping a Business in Hostels from Asia…."There was no other choice than having the cheapest accommodation, eating the cheapest food and working your ass off!” Leon Hoffmann
    Today listeners we are welcoming Leon Hoffmann to the show. Leon hails from Berlin, Germany, has been an entrepreneur for eight years and founded a crowdsourcing-based agency called click-your-ads.com. Click Your Ads is a service agency finding experts in different fields and outsourcing them.
    Ironically, Leon and I met at a co-living workspace in the south of Morocco in a small town called Taghazout. We got the chance to spend some time talking business, life, and philosophy together. He had some great experience as a location independent entrepreneur and building his business and team up to what it is today and I thought he would be a great guest.
    “For four months I was living in a yoga village on a small island. This was one of the most productive times of my life.” Leon Hoffmann

  • Ep. 144 ~ Fostering Serendipity at FiresideConf ~ Daniel Levine
    “We try to curate an environment that fosters serendipity.” Daniel Levine
    Today listeners we have one of the co-founders of Fireside Conference, Daniel Levine on the show! FiresideConf happens just outside of Toronto, Canada. Once a year, some of the brightest minds in business and tech disconnect from our digital world, travel to Camp Walden near Toronto to spend a long weekend networking and learning from one another in a fun filled outdoor adventure. They host speaker sessions while sitting around the campfire discussing business ideas. The entire camp is open to waterski, canoe, kayak, sail, participate in sports and a rope course. What is really cool about FiresideConf is that you truly are disconnected. Meaning that there is absolutely no cell phone reception at the camp. It is an invite-only, all-inclusive technology, business and investor summer camp!
    I am really excited to welcome Daniel to the show because he is the first person that we have had on the show that creates events similar to The Entrepreneur House. I started researching FiresideConf and Daniel, and became more and more excited about learning more about both him and FiresideConf…..and with that, let’s welcome Daniel Levine to the show!

  • Ep. 143 ~ The Hand’s Off CEO ~ Mandi Ellefson
    “If you’ve trained your clients that you will be there to answer emails first thing in your day, you need to untrain them.” Mandi Ellefson
    Today podcast listeners we have the founder of The Hand’s Off CEO, Mandi Ellefson on the show. Mandi helps successful service business owners transform themselves into what she calls a “Hands-Off CEO.” A Hands-Off CEO has access to the systems and strategies required to build six and seven-figure companies that generate cash flow without ongoing direct involvement.
    Mandi helps business owners to become “Hands-Off” CEOs and work less as they slowly exit the day-to-day in their businesses. Even as the business creates an increasing amount of value in the marketplace. Her proven “Hands-Off” frameworks enable CEOs to hire dependable staff who deliver consistent quality and install the missing operational systems to increase profits and transition the business into a more “passive” asset.
