Somewhere along the way, so many of us have felt forced into boxes at school or at work. But how do we break free, carve out our niche in life, and thrive along the way? This is what we're talking about with Blake Fly on today's episode of The YES Effect Show!

Blake is one of my biggest influences. He helps artists, creatives, entrepreneurs, and other people with a message and an idea. When someone wants to share a speech, present a program, cultivate an online presence, build a community, or lead a mastermind, they can turn to Blake to learn how to impact more people, make more money, and fuel their own families, goals, and dreams.

Blake wasn't the most popular kid in school, but he learned early on how to cultivate his unique abilities, find his people, and master the art of speaking. As he sees it now, whether he's delivering keynotes all over the world or creating Zoom events to empower entrepreneurs, nothing about his work has changed since high school - he simply does it at a much larger scale.

I want to remind you that your story matters. Not just the story that you put out into the world, but the internal story about what we believe is possible for ourselves. If you want to know more about creating your powerful story that can change your life, 10X your business and make selling simple, join us in the Facebook Group Nice Girls Makes Sales. That is where the magic happens!

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN:

• How writing and delivering a 30-minute valedictory event in high school made Blake fall in love with the process of looking back on experiences, telling unique stories, and finding the universal within them.
• The tools and techniques Blake uses to humanize the experience of being.
• How to conquer your fear of the stage, make your message about your audience, and give them the gift of emotional emancipation.
• How Blake teaches people how to show up - and his advice for people who aren't fully expressing themselves.
• What Blake learned from his challenge to produce a live video every single day in 2020.
• Blake's vision for his Thank You event to span upwards of 50 years - and why it's never been more important to take stock of the people in our lives and express gratitude.

Today's transformation story is going to knock your socks off! In a little over two years, today's guest has unleashed his superpower and inspired countless others to do the same. His name is Simba Van Gerpen and this is The YES Effect Show!

Simba is best known for his presence on TikTok, where he has over 3.4 million followers. He cosplays the Marvel character Deadpool in a unique, kid-friendly way, performing dances and skits. Armed with his Hello Kitty backpack and a pair of Crocs, he uses his incredible gift of physicality to entertain and inspire. He's also a tireless advocate for others who want to break into the world of cosplay. He knows that it's not how much you spend on your costume, but how you use it, that really matters.

However, just three years ago, Simba self-identified as shy and awkward around people, and he had no following at all on social media. When fires destroyed his hometown of Santa Rosa, his friends asked them to join them and cosplay to lift up kids' spirits, and something truly clicked. He discovered what he wanted to do 24/7, then used this guiding light to build a life and career he truly loves.

I want to remind you that your story matters. Not just the story that you put out into the world, but the internal story about what we believe is possible for ourselves. If you want to know more about creating your powerful story that can change your life, 10X your business and make selling simple, join us in the Facebook Group Nice Girls Makes Sales.
