  "All I know is that I know nothing." - Socrates I recently attended an event here in Arizona, and I learned a massive lesson. The only thing is the lesson didn't come from what someone said. I got it from watching someone, and being impressed beyond words about the lessons of being a student of life. Whoa.

Failure, purpose, growth. All of these are common speak these days, but how do we use them as leverage? How do we get to a place where our vision is so bold —even in the face of doubt, fear and others telling us it won't work? Enter Lisa Bilyeu —rockstar entrepreneur, founding member of Quest Nutrition and co-founder of Impact Theory. Lisa's role was critical in the company’s rise to #2 on the Inc. 500 list of the fastest-growing private companies. She then returned to media helping build the company’s revolutionary in-house media team, producing content that has been viewed over 100,000,000 times. As co-founder of Impact Theory, she’s looking to combine her highly developed skills as a creative producer with her drive to help people build things that matter. During this engaging and inspiring conversation, you’ll discover: Why success is an evolution and the power of growth Why stretching yourself is crucial to fulfillment The illusion of retirement and lacking purpose Breaking down the question of “no bullshit, what would it take?” Lisa’s transition from housewife to entrepreneur The power of trust and feedback in relationships How to navigate the stress of business and work Communicating a shared vision with your partner Navigating the early days of Quest Nutrition Why your vision shouldn’t make sense to others The power of thinking big and bold for yourself How to use regret as leverage to make big leaps How to re-frame failure and not make it about you Why placing your self esteem on a result is dangerous The real world stories of launching a startup dream How to know it's time for your transition to something new Launching Impact Theory and Women of Impact ...and so much more in an episode designed to challenge you to think bolder, bigger and with more purpose.   THE 1% RULE IS OUT!

The little red book that changed my life. That's exactly what the Go Giver book did for me when I was a young and naive entrepreneur trying to figure things out. Ultimately, it is one I read countless times and was required reading to work for any of my businesses. Today's guest on the Academy is none other than the author of the book, Bob Burg.  Bob is the author of a number of books on sales, marketing, and influence, with total book sales of well over a million copies. The American Management Association named Bob one of the 30 Most Influential Leaders and he was named one of the Top 200 Most Influential Authors in the World by Richtopia.  During this conversation, you're going to learn about the powerful business principle that will transform the way you connect, expand and live a purposeful life and business. You're also going to discover the true meaning of influence, persuasion and what separates you from your competition by doing business the right way. THE 1% RULE IS OUT!

Reality is negotiable. That’s what I got after reading the book from my latest guest — Alex Banayan. Alex is an entrepreneur, speaker and author of The Third Door: The Wild Quest to Uncover How the World's Most Successful People Launched Their Careers. Here’s the premise of the book: There's the First Door: the main entrance, where 99 percent of people wait in line, hoping to get in. The Second Door: the VIP entrance, where the billionaires and celebrities slip through. But what no one tells you is that there is always, always . . . the Third Door. It's the entrance where you have to jump out of line, run down the alley, bang on the door a hundred times, crack open the window, sneak through the kitchen--there's always a way. During this conversation, we explore his amazing quest to write the book, how anyone can live the philosophy, how to take bold action and some amazing lessons from the people he interviewed, including Bill Gates, Lady Gaga and more. We talk about being rejected, about the upside of being naive...and how to never give up! THE 1% RULE IS OUT!

On the latest Academy episode, I’m pumped to be joined by an entrepreneur, world traveler, and podcaster — Rob Murgatroyd. Rob currently runs several businesses as well as an awesome podcast, the Work Hard, Play Hard Podcast which I was featured on for Episode #25.

There’s no doubt you’ll gain countless insights during this conversation, including: Why success means having options, agency and freedom Why pain and adversity can teach you what you don’t want The power of shifting yourself physically as a catalyst How to shift information and content into real world results Why modeling is valuable but must be matched internally The power of defining what we really want and why Why we need to chase fulfillment, purpose and passion Understanding the keys to self-awareness for what you want Why freedom involves mastering processes and systems The moment Rob decided things would never be the same Why we need humbling experiences to choose new paths The power of exploring hobbies, passions and interests Why we must become self aware of the trends in our lives How to build your side hustle and when to transition out Defining ‘play hard’ and why it’s so crucial to fulfillment Why more work and hustle is not the answer to growth What creates powerful communication and connection ...and so much more in a deep, fun and inspiring episode you can implement today.
