The Kevin Miller Podcast

We all live with a life philosophy. We have guiding principles, beliefs, and expectations that influence everything we think and do. But most people are unaware of the philosophy they are living under and don’t realize they are being mindlessly guided to destinations, not of their conscious choice. You are most people. I am too, on any given day that we don’t stop and take captive what is going on, and decide and choose what we want to be going on. Following is a true story to highlight the point and help you actually grasp the opportunity before you.Head to airdoctorpro.com and use promo code KEVIN and depending on the model receive UP TO 39% off or UP TO $300 off!Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at shopify.com/kevinUse promo code KEVIN today at shipstation.com to sign up for your FREE 60-day trial.Visit Audible.com/whatdrivesyou or text whatdrivesyou to 500-500.Go to HelloFresh.com/drivefree and use code drivefree for FREE breakfast for life!Go to Seed.com/DRIVE and use code DRIVE to get 25% off your first month Visit BetterHelp.com/WHATDRIVESYOU today to get 10% off your first month.Available Nationally, look for a bottle of Heaven Hill Bottled-in-Bond at your local store.

It’s become a perspective in our culture that you are waiting for something to happen, so you can respond and become extraordinary. Our movies often show someone just existing through life, then all the sudden the world is going to end by a giant meteor or a plague and they rally to save themselves and others. Or they fall into a vat of chemicals or get bit by an insect and develop superpowers and a villain emerges. Zero to hero. We love the stories, but they permeate our culture and we start thinking that’s what life is. It isn’t. Most incredibly successful people had no big event that spurred them on. They simply looked around and noticed something they didn’t want, or they got an idea of something they did want, and they just started walking toward it. Drive is not found. It’s already in you and it’s just looking for a reason to get out.Head to airdoctorpro.com and use promo code KEVIN and depending on the model receive UP TO 39% off or UP TO $300 off!Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at shopify.com/kevinUse promo code KEVIN today at shipstation.com to sign up for your FREE 60-day trial.Visit Audible.com/whatdrivesyou or text whatdrivesyou to 500-500.Go to HelloFresh.com/drivefree and use code drivefree for FREE breakfast for life!Go to Seed.com/DRIVE and use code DRIVE to get 25% off your first month Visit BetterHelp.com/WHATDRIVESYOU today to get 10% off your first month.

This is the biggest myth I’m on a mission to dispel, that some people are driven and others are not. It’s a lie. And I want you to tell yourself and everything this good news. When you are on the couch binge watching shows and binge eating chips, it’s not because you have a lack of drive. When your kid wants to do nothing but play video games while your friend’s kid is a star athlete and valedictorian, it’s not because your kid lost the genetic lottery and has no drive. We all have all the drive we need. As much as anyone else. It’s only what is fueling our drive, and what destination we truly want, that’s in question. Following is a short analogy to drive home the point. Head to airdoctorpro.com and use promo code KEVIN and depending on the model receive UP TO 39% off or UP TO $300 off!Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at shopify.com/kevinUse promo code KEVIN today at shipstation.com to sign up for your FREE 60-day trial.Visit Audible.com/whatdrivesyou or text whatdrivesyou to 500-500.Go to HelloFresh.com/drivefree and use code drivefree for FREE breakfast for life!Go to Seed.com/DRIVE and use code DRIVE to get 25% off your first month Visit BetterHelp.com/WHATDRIVESYOU today to get 10% off your first month Learn more about your ad choices.

Ryan Serhant is one of the most successful and well-known real estate brokers in the world. Ryan is known as a star of Bravo’s Emmy-nominated Million Dollar Listing New York, its spin-off show Sell It Like Serhant, and for his appearance in the film While We’re Young alongside Ben Stiller, Naomi Watts, and Adam Driver. He founded his own real estate company, SERHANT., that has grown to more than 300 agents and over 100 full-time employees across New York City, Long Island, the Hamptons, and Florida and has amassed over 6 million followers across all social platforms. If you remember the old TV show, Lifestyles of The Rich & Famous, Ryan is the guy that’s gotten famous selling those houses, and living that lifestyle. He’s the guy everyone would point to and say is Mr Driven. Like he got a supernatural dose of drive and everyone else pales in comparison. And that is why I sat down to talk with him. I wanted to uncover what made him tick, and how he’s a mere mortal like the rest of us. So you’ll hear what drove him as a kid, where he went wrong, and why today he wants to become the most well known name in real estate in the world, simply because he wants the challenge and is bored otherwise. The other half of this conversation is about branding. Ryan got to where he is by becoming an expert in branding. He has a new book titled, Brand It Like Serhant: Stand Out From the Crowd, Build Your Following, and Earn More Money. I dug deep into his 3 keys of branding, which are 1) Discover Your Core Identity, 2) Consistency Is Key, with a focus on social media, and 3) Shout It from the Mountaintop, or rather, how to. It’s incredible information that Ryan has proven. He even went so far as to look at my social media and website and give candid, constructive criticism. This is not only a master class in drive, but a master class in branding you won’t want to miss. You’ll also hear at the end of the show, Ryan looking at his watch and being dumbfounded at how long we’d talked, claiming it was the longest conversation he’s ever had with someone and his wife is going to be jealous. I took that as a great compliment.

I’m back with authentic leadership expert Kristen Hadeed to talk about what drives her as she influences other leaders around the world. Kristen is a prolific speaker and personality people in key leadership roles are turning to for advice on how to lead by connecting with your people, whether they are your kids or your employees or coworkers. Kristen’s book is Permission To Screw Up: How I Learned to Lead by Doing (Almost) Everything Wrong. We discuss her newfound desire to pursue her spirituality, how she works to maintain relationships while traveling, I turn her own question on her of "What's something I would never know about you if we didn't have this conversation," and she turns it back on me as well. We cover her practices of walking, journaling and why she gets consistent therapy. And Kristen speaks to her journey away from everything having to be bigger and bigger and stepping back to pursue the quality of life, relationships and fun that she values. At the end I encourage her to pursue her idea of maybe gardening, and doing it poorly. And a gift for you, Kristen has a renowned program called the Human Leadership Program.

Today the buzzword in self-improvement is manifesting. People seem fairly polarized on the topic, either fully embracing it as magical or fully rejecting it as evil. I’ll admit I’ve struggled with the concept of manifesting for a long time. I believe in a God and I don’t think I’m it. I don’t think you are either. But I feel where there’s smoke there is often fire, and my parents taught me not to throw the baby out with the bathwater. So I’ve been studying this concept of manifesting and found a way I can embrace it, and think many of you will resonate as well.Head to airdoctorpro.com and use promo code KEVIN and depending on the model receive UP TO 39% off or UP TO $300 off!Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at shopify.com/kevinUse promo code KEVIN today at shipstation.com to sign up for your FREE 60-day trial.Visit Audible.com/whatdrivesyou or text whatdrivesyou to 500-500.Go to HelloFresh.com/drivefree and use code drivefree for FREE breakfast for life!Go to Seed.com/DRIVE and use code DRIVE to get 25% off your first month Visit BetterHelp.com/WHATDRIVESYOU today to get 10% off your first month Learn more about your ad choices.

The fact you are listening to this podcast tells me you are driven to influence others, and influence is leadership. So whether you want to positively influence your kids or friends or coworkers, or you want to lead a company or organization, you need some leadership skills. However, the term of leadership covers a lot of ground and has a lot of baggage that may not be relevant for you. Which is why I’m doing this series on Authentic Leadership and I’ve brought in Kristen Hadeed. Kristen Hadeed has a great story of unintentional leadership that now has her on stage around the world teaching other leaders what she calls, human leadership. Which I’d say is leading while being a good and serving human. Kristen was in college and started cleaning people’s homes to generate some income. She got more requests and ended up hiring people to help and from it and ultimately created a company that cleaned student apartments and dorms, staffed only by students. But she made so, so many mistakes that helped her learn how to really lead people by connecting to and caring about them. Kristen’s book is titled Permission To Screw Up: How I Learned to Lead by Doing (Almost) Everything Wrong. It’s a wonderful book, which is why Simon Sinek wrote the forward. In this show Kristen and I discuss what authentic leadership is and can be. And we get into talking about not only the value of trying and failing, but the necessity if you are doing anything worthwhile. Kristen is a bright light and we resonated so much we intend to do more work together. And a gift for you, Kristen has a renowned program called the Human Leadership Program.

This is my Big Idea & Action episode where I pull out the key highlights from our series on transforming conflict. Our catalyst was William Ury, one of the world’s best-known experts on negotiation, and the co-author of Getting to Yes, the world’s all-time bestselling book on the topic with more than 15 million copies sold. He’s a co-founder of Harvard’s Program on Negotiation and his brand new book and our muse for part one in this series, is, POSSIBLE: How We Survive (and Thrive) in an Age of Conflict. I also had a conversation in the previous episode with my co-host and brother, Jared Angaza who has served domestically and overseas as a conflict negotiator. It was in the conversation I had an epiphany, which I’m about to share in what turned out to be seven key highlights that stood out to me.Head to airdoctorpro.com and use promo code KEVIN and depending on the model receive UP TO 39% off or UP TO $300 off!Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at shopify.com/kevinUse promo code KEVIN today at shipstation.com to sign up for your FREE 60-day trial.Visit Audible.com/whatdrivesyou or text whatdrivesyou to 500-500.Go to HelloFresh.com/drivefree and use code drivefree for FREE breakfast for life!Go to Seed.com/DRIVE and use code DRIVE to get 25% off your first monthVisit BetterHelp.com/WHATDRIVESYOU today to get 10% off your first month.
