In this episode of Weird Finance, Paco talks to Angel Trinidad about their philosophies around goal setting, reprogramming her mindset around money and scarcity, how helping others through the tools we create can be the most meaningful work we do, the challenges of sudden wealth and the idea of abundance being shared enoughness. First-generation, queer, Filipina American, Angelia “Angel” Trinidad (she/they) is the CEO and Founder of Passion Planner. After graduating from UCLA with a B.A. in Art and a Minor in Arts Education, she found herself depressed, spiraling down, and struggling to find direction. With the motto: “it doesn't have to be perfect, it just has to start”, she took the leap and created Passion Planner, a paper life coach, from her parents' garage. Since then, Passion Planner has now helped more than 2,800,000 people dedicate more time towards their goals with less stress and more fun. This episode also features The Price Report, a short segment with Michael “Frosti” Snow (@FrostiFresh), where he takes us on a journey, examining the cost of one thing in the hopes that it helps us better understand everything. This week we're exploring the cost of happiness.

MANA is funded by membership dues, donations and the generous support of sponsors and partners. MANA de San Diego is the largest and most active MANA chapter, with more than 4,000 supporters.Fernanda originates from the Imperial Valley, an agricultural and desert area bordering Arizona and Mexico. She graduated from San Diego State University in Business Administration and is pursuing a Master's of arts in interdisciplinary studies from Oregon State University's e-campus.

Episode Description:  Join Karen as she talks to Jenn Uhen, Founder of The Pledgettes, about building wealth without being extractive, avoiding an either/or lens around money, and what is enough.  They discuss toxic messages for women in business, nonprofit or for-profit status, and communities as a business model.  They have a coaching conversation centered around prioritizing time with all the shoulds in business, being with not knowing, and how to foster creativity and innovation.  Jenn calls out the fallacy of the “self-made man,” and calls in that she is a “community-made woman.”Links:Schedule an Exploratory Call with Karen: https://calendly.com/karenbartlett/30minLearn more about Kite + Dart Group:  www.kiteanddartgroup.comRegister for an upcoming event:  https://www.eventbrite.com/o/the-kite-dart-group-16435043586Learn more about The Pledgetts:  https://thepledgettes.com/Connect with Jenn Uhen:  https://www.linkedin.com/company/thepledgettesConnect with Carin Huebner at Public Good Media:  publicgood.mediaOriginal music credit goes to DJ Ishe:  https://soundcloud.com/ishe

You are in for a treat today! We are over the moon to have the phenomenal Jayson Gaignard, the creator of the MMT Community, join us as our guest for the 100th Episode of the Business of Meetings Podcast!  Jayson is an incredibly inspiring individual and fantastic entrepreneur whose name we have often mentioned on the show! In this episode, he tells his motivating story, discusses the value of relationships, and shares the secret to MMT's success. In addition, he discusses the impact of the pandemic on his business and community and talks about what has driven and motivated him over the last two years. We hope you enjoy our stimulating conversation with Jayson Gaignard today! Jayson's bio Named one of Forbes “Top Networkers to Watch,” Jayson Gaignard founded one of the world's most exclusive communities for entrepreneurs. With just shy of 19,500 applications since its inception in 2013, the invite-only MMT Community has a lower acceptance rate than Harvard University, and brings together brilliant minds from various industries for curated networking, targeted troubleshooting and custom events, both live and virtual. Jayson's work has been featured in Entrepreneur Magazine, Forbes, Life Hacker, Business Insider, and in Tim Ferriss's New York Times bestseller, Tools of Titans. Jayson is also the founder and host of Community Made, a top-rated business podcast on iTunes. Jayson's story After dropping out of high school, Jayson started a personal concierge firm. He did that for some time and then realized that service-based businesses are hard to scale. So, he pivoted and started an online product business, traveled the world, and made a lot of money. Even so, he was stressed. He also developed health problems and he no longer felt aligned with the work he was doing. He began to wonder how much it all mattered until he finally understood that money and happiness scale very differently. Scaling down When he realized his heart was not in the business, Jayson decided to scale it down to zero. Unfortunately, things did not work out as planned. So he landed up a quarter-of-a-million dollars in debt. An opportunity A month or two later, an opportunity came his way. Someone he had met at an event had an extra ticket available for a Seth Godin event in New York, and it included participating in one of his workshops. Jayson had always been a Seth Godin fan, so he took the ticket. The theme of the event The theme of the event was the connection economy and the value of connecting with like-minded individuals. Hosting dinners  Jayson decided to start hosting dinners and bringing fascinating people together because he felt lonely and isolated. It ended up being a great success! It became clear to him that creating a container for bringing fascinating people together, and being in their presence, was something he wanted to do for the rest of his life. Tim Ferriss After Jayson had hosted dinners for about a month, the best-selling author Tim Ferriss learned that he would be banned from all retail distribution because he was the first big-name author to publish through Amazon. To combat that, Tim started a book-bundle campaign in which he offered to do two speaking engagements for people who bought 4,000 of his books. Jayson saw that and reached out to Tim to get the package. He also reached out to a friend who did leadership events in Canada with thousands of people attending.  Reaching out Jayson had to stretch himself to pay for all the books, so he reached out to three friends. One of them gave him the money he needed. The value of relationships  Later, when Jayson asked his friend why he made such a risky investment, he said he lent him the money because he was investing in him, not the business. That made two things clear to him: You never know the value of your relationships until you need it, and when you hit rock bottom, you will be left with only your word and your relationships. That also taught him that you should never turn against your word, and you should always invest in your relationships.  Amazing people Jayson has learned that amazing people become even better over time! He loves finding people with low confidence, investing in them, and adding fuel to their journeys! MMT When he did his first event, Jayson did not know how to put on an event. That is why MMT is more like a wedding than a conference in terms of its high-touch nature.  The first MMT event Jayson did not have the money to pay the speakers to draw an audience for his first event. So he asked the audience to vote for the best speaker and offered a $25,000 prize for the winner. He ended up having many $30,000 speakers competing for the $25,000 prize! He also had Tim Ferriss as the anchor speaker. Honesty As a result of Jayson's honesty, the speakers wanted to support him. So they used their social media channels to promote the first event. The secret sauce MMT's secret sauce for success is its curation process. The process only allows people who are the right fit, in terms of their core values to attend their events and become members of their community.  Raising the bar Over the years, the curation process of MMT events has become tighter. They are serving different people now than they were before, and recently, they have grown the organization differently. Rather than putting on more, or bigger events, they now scale by raising the caliber of the people attending the events. They have also upped the price-point of the events. The pandemic Jayson did not want the pandemic to disrupt the business or the community. So he offered the community either a full refund or the option to move their spot forward to 2021. All the members opted to move their spots forward to 2021. 2021 In 2021, they had to move the event a full calendar year ahead once again. Again, everyone transferred their spots. Even so, they lost a lot of revenue. Fortunately, the loyalty and support of the members have made things manageable. Tough times Jason spends ninety percent of his social time with the people in his MMT community. His love of his community drove him and motivated him to keep going when things got tough over the last two years.

In this episode we discuss: his thoughts on leadership: “Leadership is creating an alignment of strengths that make weaknesses irrelevant.” how he didn't consider himself a leader until the pandemic. his capacity for empathy and why he considers that a unique ability. how finding his mentor at 18 helped guide him down his current path. how academics did not play a huge part in his development. the importance of surrounding himself with people who think bigger than him. his start as a personal concierge being everything to everyone. his start in a product-based business sourcing and selling tickets to concerts and sporting events. how attending a Seth Godin event about connecting value changed his trajectory after his business failed (aka he burned it to the ground). how his first conference, which was planned more like a wedding, led to the present day MMT Community. how resourcefulness plays a huge role in his success. how he nurtures and sustains the outer layers of his network.

“If you want a world class network, you need to invest in world class people.” Jayson Gaignard Click to Tweet   I’m a firm believer that all problems can be solved with the right peer group. That being said, if you’re looking to build a world class network then you got to go wide in your networking and narrow in your nurturing.   In this episode I share action-oriented strategies for building an incredibly peer group regardless of whether you’re just starting out or already established as a community catalyst within your circles.

If you want to be great at something, find someone who’s the best at it and learn from them.” -Todd Herman   Full disclosure: I am a huge Todd Herman fan. I met Todd during one of the darkest times of my life, and my connection to him has had a substantial positive impact. This man owns real estate in my mind when it comes to mentorship, and for good reason. His digital book, The Definitive Guide on Finding & Becoming a Mentor is the most underrated piece of literature on the subject I have ever read.

“The best mentors know this: Instead of giving answers, they ask better questions. Instead of speaking in absolutes, they offer points of view. Instead of giving direct advice, they share their first hand experience.” Jayson Gaignard Click to Tweet   Looking backwards on my career, I can honestly say that I wouldn’t be where I am without the guidance of a few great mentors that took me under their wing. I have learned that you’re never too old to have a mentor, you’ll need different mentors at different stages in your life and career, and no one person will take you from good to great and excellent to exceptional, so approach it with the goal of creating a network of mentors instead of looking for the whole package. Why the wisest investment is wisdom, how to make the most of a mentoring relationship regardless of which side of the equation you might fall, myths of mentorship that we tend to take as truths, and the 4 stages of mentoring, and so much more in this episode of Community Made!   Reviewer of the week: Na Ka   Select Links and References How to Find and Become a Mentor by Todd Herman I can’t make this up by Kevin Hart Back Pocket COO by Cameron Herold Vivid Vision by Cameron Herold The Perfect Calendar Steve Sisler’s DISC profiles

By any objective standard, Joe Newman is not the kind of guy you expect to see leading a photography Meetup. He describes himself as a shy introvert and is very uncomfortable describing himself as a photographer. Yet, in the last year, Joe has built a fast growing and very engaged group of photographers around his Meetup group and blog, DC Focused.  The DC Focused photography community lives on Meetup, Facebook, Instagram and Flickr. Their Meetups are not just photo walks but challenges and an opportunity to be published. A funny thing happened on Joe's journey to leading the new photography community, he became known as a photographer and became better at his craft. Listen to the podcast.
