March 25, 2017 How To Know If You’re An Emotional Infant Or Mature Adult with Pete Scazzero
The biggest threat to our world isn’t uneducated leaders, it’s immature leaders. Today’s guest shares how you can identify your own emotional maturity and safeguard against the brokenness that could be holding you back.

Pete Scazzero believes you can only be as successful as you are emotionally mature. Meaning you can’t disconnect the relationship between influence and wealth building and your ability to control your emotions, make wise decisions, and maintain a healthy mental perspective on life.
Personally, Pete is one of my favorite authors and he’s also someone I look to for direction on building character strong enough to lead my family, my followers, and my dreams.
Today, we’re discussing Pete’s new book The Emotionally Healthy Leader where he teaches people how to go from emotional infants to thriving, mature adults. But more than that, he shares fascinating stories and strategic steps on how to become more aware of our own emotional state.
Our conversation is deep, it’s useful, and it’s one that will cause you to evaluate your story, your maturity, and your leadership ability. I hope you enjoy it.

Here Are This Month’s Five Questions
1. From Jessica Halbern in Colorado: It seems like everyone is winning except for me. How can I keep my spirits high about my dreams when I feel I have no reason to believe they will ever come about?
2. From Nicole Stroud in New York City: My business idea requires a pretty strong tech understanding. I have limited knowledge so what would you recommend as a way to start? Secondly, should I keep my idea private? I’m concerned with sharing the idea with people.
3. From Ali Burke in Fargo North Dakota: What advice do you have for wives with husbands who, despite their good intentions, struggle to set boundaries with work and find the right balance of business and family? Ultimately, how can wives best support and encourage their husband, reminding them to prioritize family, without coming across as nagging?
4. From Japheth Mast in Redding California: How do you stay true to yourself and your calling in business? On social media, you see so many different versions of success, and it’s tempting to try to be like them and look like them. But we are all different, and each one of us has our own unique path to take, so how can you focus on just being real, being you, and staying true to your calling?
5. From Andrew Denelsbeck: You talk about building an audience or a platform, what are some practical tips on how to do this? I’m starting a blog and trying to be more active on social media, but do you have some more in depth tips or resources on how to reach more people and build a following?

March 03, 2017 How To Finally Be Comfortable With Who You Are with Rebekah Lyons
One of my favorite quotes is, “Do you remember who you were before the world told you who you should be?”
I think many of us lose our identity in our accomplishments, our work, our pursuits, our credentials, or our talents. But when those things are stripped away or even taken from us, we often lose the confidence in our intrinsic value.
Today’s guest is my friend Rebekah Lyons and author of the new book, “Your Are Free: Be Who You Already Are”. In this new release, she teaches people how to deny the lie so many of us believe: The lie that our worth is what others think of us. The lie that causes us to compare and strive and exist mostly for the approval of others.

In our conversation, Rebekah and I dive deep into the practices and tactics to realign your value, to heal yourself from brokenness that inhibits your ability to lead, and to find clarity on what truly matters more than work, career, or accomplishments.
So put on a helmet and put down your shield because we’ve got some hard truths we need to bump into in this episode of the StartupCamp.com podcast.

February 04, 2017 How To Earn A Realistic Salary As A Writer With Jonathan Merritt
Last year, I produced over a million dollars with my writing. But not how you would think… For me, my writing is the heart of why people follow me. It’s the initial touchpoint that drives them to buy my products, pay for my consultation, and request me to speak. In other words, my writing is the front door to my brand and my business, and it should be the same for you.
Interestingly, I never thought I was going to be a writer. To be honest, I don’t really enjoy the act of writing. However, I love the result. The ability to transfer ideas, opinions, truth, and insight from my brain to others is likely the most fulfilling thing I do.
And today, I get to share how I got there.
In this episode, I have a special guest for you. Not only is he my personal writing coach and friend, but our conversation makes the hall of fame for this podcast. To catch the immense quantity of wisdom, lessons, and quotes you’ll want to listen to our conversation again and again.

Powerful Quotes From This Episode
“Great writers write from a place of confidence, not certainty.”
“Being a writer isn’t taught, it’s caught… like a disease you want to catch.”
“As you shape your writing, your writing is shaping you.”
“As a writer you’re either in the lighting business or the heating business.” (listen to hear the concept explained)
“70% of American’s say they have a book inside of them.”
“Sadly, most people go to the grave with the song still in them.”
“Writers will fail under the paralysis of perfectionism.”
“A good writer a reader of good books.”
“Writing can be an isolating act, but it’s best done in community.”
“Good writers write to their readers, not their critics.”

Here are the five questions I answered:
1. Hillary from Philadelphia: “What are the top three things we should be doing as business owners if we don’t have a team to help us? If you had to make the essential top 3 areas to focus on, what would they be?”
2. Brendan from Hawkes Bay, New Zealand: “In regards to the companies you started but did not succeed in, how did you know when to stop and let it go? When do you say, ‘enough is enough’?”
3. Tyler from Polk City, Iowa: “I’ve started a blog and I am producing valuable content each week, but after a month I’m only receiving 50 site visitors per article. Of those visitors, 100% are directed to the blog from Facebook. I feel as if it will take years to attract enough followers to the point in which I could sell something. Where do you start when building an audience from virtually nothing?”
4. Ronnie from Culemborg, The Netherlands: “I’m curious to learn how you gained more than a million followers online? Did the growth come organically or have you done something else to accelerate the growth?”
5. Leah from Jacksonville, Florida: “How did you and your beautiful wife know when it was time to start your family? My husband and I feel our time is drawing near, but I worry because my photography business isn’t yet where I would need it to be to become a full-time stay-at-home mom (which is what we both feel I should do). Do you have any wisdom on how we should be thinking about this?
