The Creative Entrepreneur Blueprint

In this episode we explore what it's like living life from a place of force and will compared flow and ease. I was humbled by a successful author at a party recently and it really reminded me of how I can choose to live my life a different way.

Seriously...if you didn't feel fear as much as you do. If we weren't afraid of being successful, of what people think, of doing things the right way. If you didn't let those fears seep into your thinking, what kind of life would you be living? That's the question I explore today after meditating on it myself and realizing my life and business could and would be drastically different. This is an episode about embracing our core human nature of having fear, but choosing another way of living and the benefits of doing just that.

This is an episode focused on sharing with you the 3-Step framework for recognizing, working through, and rewriting your stories that fuel your "autopilot program" of your life and all the negative emotions tied to them. Nathan talks about how he has used this framework to help address some deep seeded insecurities around being rejected/not good enough that were driving negative experiences in his business and personal life. Tune in to this powerful episode!

This episode is all about me sharing some breakthroughs I've had this year so far. How I've learned to go inward first, before I attempt to go outward. You'll learn three tools my community and myself have been using to achieve some pretty amazing personal results. 1. How to set goals tied to feelings so you're not pushing to get things done... they just naturally happen 2. Using meditation as a way to start your day by attracting the things you want in your life and avoiding what you don't 3. How spending 30 mins before you start your day can actually change your life and help you show up bigger in your day/life. Enjoy and make sure to leave a review if you haven't yet.

This episode is all about learning how to create your own brand script. The same brand script taught by Donald Miller in his bestselling book, Building a Story Brand.

I was honored to have Felix Kunze on, and I thought I'd share with you why I was so excited to have him on the show. I originally reached out to him because I loved his work. I loved his lighting course that he was selling online and felt it was filled with an immense amount of value for the cost. I kept getting ads for it and I was thinking, man, this could be great to have Felix talk about the business behind his course creation. Let's unbox what he's doing as an artist, but also an entrepreneur and educator. Well, we ended up going down a completely different tangent. It ended up being about looking at the core of what makes an artist successful, and identifying what you're drawn to, what you're good at. Then just being so dead set on delivering value to your community. It removes the focus on tools, tactics, and technology and brings us back to why we do what we do as creatives. So that's why I think it's a powerful podcast, and why I STRONGLY encourage you to listen to it. Enjoy and keep rocking!

I was able to host Kirk Mastin and the CEO of Mastin Labs. And in this part two of two, we dig into how he's built an incredibly successful worldwide business by selling a digital product. He talks about how to stay lean, how to automate, and how by doing so, you're able to weather most, if not any storm.

I have, my entire adult life, really been attracted to people who are running successful businesses and making it seem easy. For the past eight years I have watched Kirk weather economic, weather personal storms and still have this seemingly thriving business and I wanted to understand how. So for an hour we got to sit down and talk through the current economic/coronavirus crisis and what good can come of that. He shares a lot of insight into the tools he's used to make his business run lean and scale incredibly well. Things such as; How to work backwards from your business goals Tools to use to automate your social media and business processes The importance of staying lean and agile The power of a digital product It's a really incredible episode and I hope you find just as much value from it as I did.

In this episode I share some tactics from Trevor Moawad and Michael Hyatt about the power of doing less. Want more energy... do less. Want to accomplish more at work and in your career... do less. Want more positive thoughts.... Speak less negative ones. In our culture of DO MORE, this episode is all about taking a moment and deep breath to realize you don't have to do it all.

This episode is all about going back to the basics of your business. As entrepreneurs we fall in love with our product or service. Ways of making it better, more innovative, additional features, etc. But we forget about the most important part of our product or service which is the customer consuming it. Nathan spends time walking through FIVE steps you can take to fall back in love with your customer and learn everything it is to know about them. From that place start to build your product or service offerings into a value ladder that provides massive value for your customer and in turn, makes you widely successful as well.

Super intense and loving episode where I dig into the feeling of anger. I share how I've been using it recently to get into a warrior mindset instead of letting it take me down into a victim path of not having control. We should feel our anger, we should let it flow in and out of use but in the right ways. I share my take on which ways I find to be helpful. Take a listen if you've ever been pissed about something and see how this resonates with you.

In this episode I share a story of a women and a homeless man that left me crying. It's a reminder of what compassion can do for not only you, but for others. After hearing this story, I was left with a question for myself which is, "How can I today show more compassion for myself and for others?" Take a listen and I hope it moves you as much as it moved me. Let's rock!

It's about leveraging the experience and wisdom of someone that has done it before, who is willing to provide guidance to you AND hold you accountable. You see, the accountability is key and one of the most powerful things you get form working with a coach, someone that will push you when you think you're done. Let's rock!

Woke up this morning and just felt off my game so thought I'd share candidly how I was feeling and dealing with the challenge of the morning.

It's almost the end of the year. People are wrapping up crazy work years and getting ready to relax, and party, with friends through the holidays and new year. But instead of waiting till January to plan my goals, I start now, before the distractions hit. Before I feel less energetic from the food, alcohol, and hosting. This episode is about the most important part of my planning. It's about listing out the core desired feelings you want in each of the 8 ares of your life. For example, Body and Wellness, what feelings do you want to have. I can guarantee it's nothing to do with having a beach body, that's not a feeling. It might be a result of the feeling, but you've got to define the feeling first. I walk you through how I approach listing out my feelings and making sure they're powerful and expansive, not from a place of little me or ego. Let's rock!

Every feel the stress of ALL you have to do?? Heck yeah, I do all the time. Today I walk through the tactics I use to reduce that stress and get clarity. It all starts with what I call Leverage Points. These are points in time that you put on the calendar, that you preemptively assign time and financial resources too, and use them as leverage points to make things happen. I then define success, plan, and delegate. It's a great process and I hope it helps you as much as it helps me. Let's rock!

I talk about the end result of using a Porsche rental as a reward to push me through some business barriers this month. Find out if I got it and what happened this week that got in my way. Let's rock!

I explore ways of finding space to enjoy the journey but also how I'm attempting to use a Porsche reward as a way of helping me execute on some big goals. Let's rock!

We all love stories, it's what moves us as humans. Stories of family, friends, work situations, adventures. It's about about who, what, and where. How you define what you do to others shouldn't be any different. There's a difference between saying"I'm a financial advisor" compared to saying, "I'm a financial advisor that works with both business men and women helping them achieve an average of 10% on their international investments." I walk through a simple exercise to help you get that clarity!
