The Self-Employed Life

In this episode of The Self-Employed Life, I had the pleasure of interviewing the renowned entrepreneur, Pat Flynn. Pat shares his insights on community building from both sides - a community that follows you and a community you gather. Pat's journey as an entrepreneur, father, husband, and content creator has been nothing short of inspiring. Pat emphasizes the importance of being genuinely curious as an entrepreneur, highlighting the significance of asking the right questions and understanding the needs of your audience. He shares his experiences with building successful online businesses, hosting popular podcasts like Smart Passive Income, and engaging with his audience through various platforms. We delve into the concept of community building and the power of creating a space where individuals can connect, collaborate, and feel heard. Pat discusses the shift from focusing solely on providing information to prioritizing human connections and creating a sense of belonging within his community. One key takeaway from the episode is the idea of embracing your uniqueness and sharing authentic aspects of yourself with your audience. Pat's personal anecdotes, such as his love for Back to the Future and his wife's obsession with the Backstreet Boys, highlighted the importance of relatability and creating memorable experiences for your community. Pat also touches on the significance of collaboration in business and the transformative impact it can have on individuals and the world at large. By fostering a collaborative environment within his SPI Community, Pat has created a space where members can celebrate wins, share experiences, and support each other on their entrepreneurial journeys. Overall, the episode showcases Pat Flynn's dedication to serving others, his commitment to building meaningful connections, and his belief in the power of community. Listeners are encouraged to visit smartpassiveincome.com to learn more about Pat's projects and engage with his thriving community.

Inadvertently, we can often create mindset gaps that are holding us back without realizing it. These gaps are subtle but oh such a powerful block. These gaps are often similar to the idea, "Do as I say and not as I do." We need to do as we say and more importantly, we need to do as we expect others to do. Otherwise, we create a mindset gap.

I have been receiving coaching for 25 years, and I can honestly say that the coaching I received from today’s guest has been the most powerful and life-changing I have ever received. Today I’m speaking with Paul Cuneo, the creator of the Hero's Journey Odyssey Experience. Paul's insights into the Hero's Journey and its application to personal and professional growth have reshaped my understanding of authenticity and identity. Through our conversation, we explore the transformative nature of this storytelling tradition, delving into the merging of conscious and unconscious minds, the physical and visceral aspects of the journey, and the role of the ego in forming identity. Join us in this profound conversation about personal growth, authenticity, and the interconnectedness of life.   Paul Cuneo is the creator of the Hero's Journey Odyssey Experience and the creative behind PaulWrites.media. Through the HJOE, Paul helps clients move through personal and professional transition and reinvention by mapping their lives onto the Hero's Journey and pulling back the curtain on the identity transformation they're going through. Through this process, his clients learn to trust and respond to their intuition and instincts, embrace their fears, and find the answers to those seemingly intractable problems that life, career, and relationships present to us.    And be sure to subscribe to The Self-Employed Life in Apple Podcasts or follow us on Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts so you don’t miss an episode.   Everything you need can all be found at jeffreyshaw.com.   Paul Cuneo, thank you so much for being here!

I'm going to pose a question to you, but before you respond, I want you to consider your answer carefully – your answer to this question may be different today than it would have been a few years ago. The question: what does success mean to you? Today, I ask this question to Regina Lawless, seasoned guide for high-achieving women seeking purpose beyond their paycheck. As Regina recounts her journey of redefining success following the sudden loss of her husband, we explore the impact of grief, stress, and burnout. Regina’s insights on the importance of self-care and fully embracing joy are essential for those navigating the delicate balance of entrepreneurship and well-being.   Regina Lawless helps high-achieving Black women find purpose beyond their paycheck in order to experience more bliss in their lives and sustainable success at work and at home. Before starting Bossy & Blissful, a community for Black women executives and business owners, Regina served as the head of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) at Instagram. Regina has worked with Fortune 500 companies across various industries, including Target, Intel and Micron Technology. She holds a master’s degree in organizational development and lives in the Bay Area with her partner and teenage son. Her first book, Do You, will be published by Greenleaf Book Group, in partnership with Fast Company, February 2024.   And be sure to subscribe to The Self-Employed Life in Apple Podcasts or follow us on Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts so you don’t miss an episode.   Everything you need can all be found at jeffreyshaw.com.   Regina Lawless, thank you so much for being here!
