Podcasts about entrepreneruship

Spoken word artist and coach Adam Roa joins me for a wide-ranging chat about life, love, and the messiness of it all. We get into the highs and lows of going viral, why self-love can sometimes look a lot like narcissism, and what's total BS in the personal growth world. Adam shares war stories from the world of artistic entrepreneurship - think big money, big egos, and the discipline it actually takes to make it work. We also talk new age communities (the good, the bad, and the seriously weird), being a digital nomad, breaking up like a pro, and why relationships are the ultimate dojo for self-discovery. Plus, a peek into his new book and what he's learned from coaching clients with million-dollar budgets. Expect insight, irreverence, and a few truth bombs along the way.

Choose a path that can help build skills that are applicable no matter what you end up doing in the long run.”“I pretty much spent all of my free time watching HGTV, buying coffee table design books, and consuming and reading everything design.”“It was less about starting a business and more about following this passion than anything else.” “I started making friends with all the home editors and getting to know people in the design community and little by little I built credibility, and I built a name and I became really respected.

I didn't have the granularity of the plan, but I knew I was gonna start my own business. Once I became an interior designer full-time and started my design firm, I knew that I wanted to build a brand and have physical products.”“Paint really felt like a broken buyer journey”“Part of the blind optimism as a founder is just believing you can do it.”“The further along you get, the harder fundraising becomes, even if you are the next hot startup idea in the beginning, you have to demonstrate that you have a business that has potential or else you will lose people very quickly.”“Fundraising is like a game of FOMO. You're hot or not, and there's not a lot in-between.”“Just being able to show up in a room and be your true self and not feel doubted, you know or feel like people are questioning your ability to build the business that you're building, and be able to focus on the stuff that really matters.”“Maintain your conviction in what you're building. You are going to be met with so much rejection, so much skepticism. So many people who don't believe in what you know to be true, remain unwavering in your belief around your business, what you're building and just never lose sight of your mission because that's what will keep you grounded and keep going even when things get really hard”

It doesn't matter how rich or poor you are, where you are, where you're from, what you look like. It's such a shared experience of people who are incredibly vulnerable.” “Instead of focusing on one product, what if we could develop products that span different milestones of what both parents and children went through together to make that shopping experience that much easier from the overwhelming experience that it is.”“Being a co-founder with somebody is more like having a sibling than a best friend.”“When you have a co-founder, it's a partnership. There has to be a division of labor to ultimately steer the organization and strategy in the best direction possible.”“We wanted to build a brand that wasn't for one issue or one type of parent, we wanted to build a brand that could be for many different types of people.”“We're not here to confuse you. We're not here to play games with you.

It's the best roller coaster, it's so much fun, I wouldn't trade it for the world. But it's a ride and you just have to be ready to persevere.”

A.C.E. Adventures in Creative EntrepreneurshipEpisode #016Guest: Gary HirschImproviser + Artist   I was first introduced to this week’s guest, Gary Hirsch, on his biggest improv collaborative performance with the 3,000 member audience at Chris Guillebeau’s World Domination Summit in Portland this past summer.    Whoa.  Improv with 3,001 people… pretty impressive + he pulled it off seamlessly.  As a lead member in the international improv company: On Your Feet, Gary uses ‘applied improv’ with small business and even large corporations to positively affect all sorts of blocks such as: Stepping outside your comfort zone Communicating + Collaborating Keeping an audience engaged Idea generators for growth and even products And even building confidence in the face of uncertainty Geeze… that’s quite a list of things I can relate to.  Right?   So, I began to keep tabs on what he was working on… and stumbled upon his collaborative art project called Bot Joy.   A bot is a little robot drawing on the back of domino that take on little personas to bring things like joy, love, and inspiration to the carrier.  It all stemmed out of the simple need for Gary to doodle, but this mini army of bots really gets around. Its caught on so much that the bots have found their way into some serious swag bags such as the Golden Globes and MTV movie awards, brave bots are at bedsides of children in hospitals, and joy bots are currently being tracked traveling around the world.   I find it hugely inspiring that such a small piece of artwork on a domino has grabbed so much attention from a notably wide audience.    For you all you creatives out there looking to tackle a big project in 2014- I hope it will inspire you to start small + take action.  Gary’s improv inspired presenting + public speaking tips (unscripted): Its not all about you- focus on the audience be as optimistic as an improviser + assume something awesome is about to happen don’t be oblivious to what’s in the room by being over-prepared + lose the script let go + be present + connect with your audience
