375. A Creative Dream 10 Years in the Making! - An interview with Executive Producer Scott Siepker

Scott Siepker is back! That's right. We're talking with the Actor, Writer and Executive Producer! Scott's well-known for his great creative work as well as his viral "Iowa Nice" videos! Plus, this might be episode 375… but Scott joined us way back for episode 82 of DTD! He's been working on some exciting projects since our last conversation! One of the biggest updates is that Scott and his team have put together an INCREDIBLE documentary called "KINNICK." It's the story of Nile Kinnick - who was a child of the depression who went on to win the Heisman Trophy and became a pilot in World War 2. Not only that… he became one of the best known people in the country. In fact, Ronald Regan once reflected that if Nile Kinnick hadn't died in WWII… "he could have gone on to become the President of the United States." Plus, if you've ever walked through the main gate of the University of Iowa's fabled football stadium… you've passed by a beautiful bronze statue of young Nile. But hey… whether you're a sports fan or not… I can tell you… THIS is a powerful story! We're going to talk with Scott about Nile's journey… as well as Scott's own journey as he worked on the dream of creating this documentary for 10 years! And… as you'll hear… he's just getting started!

367: 6 Things I wish I'd known Sooner about being a Paid Public Speaker with Travis Crutcher

Travis Crutcher is back. THIS time we're talking about Professional SPEAKING. More specifically… we're digging into 6 things we wish we'd known earlier… when it comes to getting paid to speak… and being a professional speaker. If you're a Dream Think Doer… there is a VERY good chance… you've got a message the world needs to hear! Because you're taking time out of your week… to listen to stories and strategies that help you to dream bigger… think better… and do more. You're investing in yourself. And my guess is… you also want to see OTHERS dream bigger… think better and do more! That means… you've got a message to share. You've got stories and strategies in you that need to get out… because they can help other people! So let's get you some specific strategies to help make that happen! INFO ABOUT MITCH'S NEXT-LEVEL SPEAKER LIVE 2022! Click here: www.mitchmatthews.com/nextlevelspeaker to find out more about this LIVE 3-day event with Mitch. If you've got a message in you the world needs to hear… if you've got a heart for speaking and it's time to get paid for that message… if you want to make a positive impact on the world and you know it's time to take it to the "Next Level" then join us! www.mitchmatthews.com/nextlevelspeaker RELATED EPISODES: Lisa Even from episode 366 attended last year's NEXT LEVEL SPEAKER and it was a game changer! She's had incredible "Ripple Effect" ever since! From FREE to FEE: 5 Specific Strategies to help you become a PAID Speaker: mitchmatthews.com/332/ 8 Tips to Get Over the FEAR of Public Speaking: mitchmatthews.com/076 MORE ABOUT TRAVIS CRUTCHER: Travis's Website: traviscrutcher.com Travis's Podcast: Above Average Podcast MORE ABOUT THE EPISODE: Now… some of you have NO interest in being a PAID professional speaker… because… maybe… you don't really like public speaking. Heck… that's understandable… because studies show that more people are afraid of public speaking then they are of dying! So yeah… if you bristle at the thought of being a speaker… let alone a PAID speaker… you're not alone. BUT… what if? What if you could get over that fear… and you could step in front of a group of people… and bless their socks off? What if… the words you shared shifted people's lives? What if… something you said inspired someone to make a change they've wanted to make or live more of the life they were meant to live? What if? I think everyone can learn strategies to overcome fear… and then speak more effectively… and even have fun with it! But I also believe that some of you should get paid well to do that too! And THAT might be closer at hand than you might think! Heck… we've got a lot of listeners that are paid speakers… and if that's you… WELL DONE! BUT with today's episode… I wanted to get to brass tacks and give you even more to help you take your ideas and your abilities to speak to the next level… and… if you chose… to help you get PAID well as a speaker! To do that… I've enlisted my friend Travis Crutcher! I'm betting you remember Travis from episode 344… AND 352. Travis is a Success Coach and Speaker who helps dynamic people get clarity, increase impact, and live a life they love! Now… he also has a podcast called the Above Average Podcast… which he hosts with his amazing bride Jess… and they've gotten their show into the top 1% of all podcasts in a very short time! He's a Retired Army Ranger and he spent some time in the corporate space as an executive too. A few years ago… Travis joined Acceleration… my mastermind for coaches and speakers… and he launched his dream business and now he's killing it! And a big part of that is being a PAID speaker… and he's getting paid well to speak to audiences and make a big impact! By the way… he's such a leader… and his business is growing like crazy… so he's now helping me to run Acceleration and I'm loving it! With this episode… we're diving into speaking and specifically 6 things we wish we'd known earlier when it comes to speaking and being PAID to be a speaker. And we're going to talk about heart stuff… mental stuff… business strategy and life strategy and I think you're going to dig it! Especially if you're wanting to make an impact on the world in some small or big way… and potentially get paid well to do it! I WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU: How about YOU!? What stood out to you from this conversation? Also, let me know if you have questions (big or small) about being a speaker! I want to hear from you!!!
