The latest Academy episode features Manny Wolfe, a public speaking Coach, author, and entrepreneur and founder of 1000 Speakers Academy, where he teaches visionaries how to deliver their message with power, passion, persuasion, and precision. I’ve personally worked with Manny and can vouch he is the real deal in teaching people how to craft a powerful message and story. During this episode, we discuss exactly how to craft your message, level up your communication and resonate with your tribe, including: Why your definition of success will evolve How our collective mindset is rapidly shifting Why creativity is your nature and everyone has it The power of language in our lives Level up your relationships with powerful communication Why some people we meet seem out of alignment The true story body language is telling We can’t communicate better with others than we do ourselves Why what we’re good at is boring to us The best way to answer ‘what you do’ How to make conversations last forever ...and so much more. I deeply believe communication is a skill we can't work on enough, and this episode will expand your skills in a big way. ‘To make the assertion you’re not creative is to deny the fundamental essence of your nature.’ - Manny Wolfe, Ep. 66 Liked what you heard?

On our latest Academy Quick Hit, I discuss one of the key problems I see in the personal development, growth and spiritual spaces: Lack of integration, or how do we actually change the way we operate and behave in a world after we've had a moment of clarity and expansion? Here’s the truth: if we don't integrate what we're learning and experiencing, it becomes another form of entertainment.

On our latest Academy Quick Hit, I discuss the importance of playing the long game, patience, consistency and endurance in any endeavor you create. This mindset is crucial for long-term success where most people try something new, get hyped up and then move on to the next. Here’s the truth: There is no secret pill, there is no magic book or course that’s going to transform your life because consistency compounded with time is the key to success. Knowing that most people give up way before the finish line allows you to not only have realistic expectations but sets yourself up for success over the long term.
