What happens when you quit your bartending job, book the largest event space in Las Vegas, and only sell two tickets? For most, that would signal the end of an entrepreneurial journey—but for Steve Werner, it was just the beginning of a remarkable transformation from failure to seven-figure success.Steve pulls back the curtain on his journey from working seven days a week in a Vail ski town to building a thriving business helping entrepreneurs craft signature talks, high-converting offers, and emotionally resonant content. The turning point? A Tony Robbins event that forced him to confront the uncomfortable truth about where his life was heading if he continued on the same path.What sets Steve's story apart is his refreshing approach to failure. Rather than retreating after his disastrous first event, he developed a powerful methodology: "Take action, learn without emotion. Did this work? Did this not work? What can I learn from it?" By removing emotional attachment from his analysis, he could iterate rapidly, holding progressively more successful events and crossing the million-dollar mark within just three years.For e-commerce entrepreneurs struggling to create emotional connections with "ordinary" products, Steve offers two practical pathways: either align your brand with a meaningful cause (like TOMS Shoes) or incorporate authentic personal storytelling into your marketing. He emphasizes that everyone has a story worth telling—it's about finding the right angle that resonates with your audience.The conversation takes a fascinating turn when Steve reveals the dramatic shifts in the post-COVID event landscape. Virtual events have surged in popularity but suffer from abysmal attendance rates, while traditional conferences are struggling as consumers increasingly demand solutions to specific pain points rather than generalized content. This explains why even established events like Traffic and Conversion Summit are canceling shows that would have been considered successful by previous standards.Ready to transform your message into a movement? Steve's insights will help you build deeper connections with your audience while avoiding the pitfalls that derail most entrepreneurs. The question isn't whether you'll face obstacles—it's whether you'll have the mindset to turn those obstacles into opportunities.How to connect with Steve: Website: https://stevenphillipwerner.com/Steve.coffee.com Book a call with Steve: https://bookacall.reachingmillions.co/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/steven-phillip-werner/Podcast: Grow Your Impact, Income & Influence Podcast - [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/grow-your-impact-income-influence/id1532299107]Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stevenphillipwerner/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/c/SteveWernerStoriesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/StevenPhillipWerner Support the show

Gábor, miért nem próbálunk még egyszer?En: "Gábor, why don't we try once more?"Hu: - kérdezte Eszter, miközben egy utolsó simítást végzett a prezentációjén laptopján.En: asked Eszter, as she put a final touch on her presentation on her laptop.Hu: Gábor csak mosolygott, szemében a kreativitás szikrájával.En: Gábor just smiled, a spark of creativity in his eyes.Hu: - Van egy új ötletem!En: "I have a new idea!"Hu: - mondta izgatottan.En: he said excitedly.Hu: - Még hozzáadhatnánk egy szimulációt a prezentációhoz.En: "We could add a simulation to the presentation.Hu: Ez lenyűgözi a zsűrit!En: It will impress the jury!"Hu: Eszter szívét elöntötte a félelem.En: Eszter was filled with fear.Hu: - Gábor, a technika nem biztos, hogy megoldja.En: "Gábor, the technology might not solve everything.Hu: Nolopjón el túl sok időt a fő témától!En: Let's not let it steal too much time from the main topic!"Hu: A prezentáció közeledett, és Eszter igyekezett visszatartani a tendenciát, hogy Gábor ötleteit az utolsó pillanatban alakítsa.En: As the presentation approached, Eszter tried to hold back the tendency to modify Gábor's ideas at the last minute.Hu: Mégis, látta a lelkesedést a társában, és úgy döntött, megbízik benne.En: Yet, she saw the enthusiasm in her partner and decided to trust him.Hu: Amikor végre eljött az idő, hogy színpadra lépjenek, mindketten gyors lélegzetet vettek.En: When the time finally came for them to step on stage, they both took a deep breath.Hu: Az első néhány dián zökkenőmentesen mentek végig, ám az egyik zsűritag hirtelen kérdést tett fel, ami próbára tette a kettősüket.En: The first few slides went smoothly, but suddenly a jury member asked a question that tested the duo.Hu: Gábor azonnal válaszolt, belefogva az új szimuláció bemutatásába, míg Eszter igyekezett az értékesítési pontokat ismét felvillantani.En: Gábor immediately responded, launching into the demonstration of the new simulation, while Eszter tried to highlight the key selling points again.Hu: Az együttes játékuk meglepő módon harmóniát teremtett.En: Their combined performance unexpectedly created harmony.Hu: Gábor intuitív válasza és Eszter alapos magyarázata együtt ütőképes párost alkotott.En: Gábor's intuitive response and Eszter's thorough explanation made them a formidable team.Hu: A zsűritagok lenyűgözve figyelték őket, és végül gratuláltak nekik.En: The jury members watched them in awe and eventually congratulated them.Hu: A nap végére Gábor és Eszter nemcsak a várva várt finanszírozást szerezték meg, hanem egy mentorálási lehetőséget is kapottak, hogy további útmutatást kapjanak projektjükhöz.En: By the end of the day, not only had Gábor and Eszter secured the much-anticipated funding, but they also received a mentoring opportunity to get further guidance for their project.Hu: Gábor megtanulta, hogy az ötleteket strukturálni is kell, míg Eszter elfogadta a kreativitást és a rugalmasság fontosságát.En: Gábor learned that ideas need structuring, while Eszter embraced the importance of creativity and flexibility.Hu: Bárhogy is nézték, mindketten rájöttek, hogy együtt bármilyen kihívásnak megfelelnek.En: No matter how they looked at it, both realized that together, they could meet any challenge.Hu: És ahogy kiléptek az inkubátor ajtaján, tudták, hogy közös jövőjük ígérete még csak most kezdődik.En: And as they stepped out of the incubator's door, they knew that the promise of their joint future was just beginning.

Today's episode is with a guest whom I met at The Thing in Orlando back in November. There's been a lot of recent guests who I met at that event and they've all been amazing episodes, and I know today will be just the same.I will probably not do this guest justice by introducing her and her practice and how it helps business owners, so I will let her do it. My guest today is Chrisy Waters Forsyth. She is a spiritual hype woman and energy alchemist.Christy's Bio:Christy Waters Forsyth is your down-to-earth spiritual guide to all things energy, intuition, and personal transformation.

Pulling from her 25+ years professional experience, she combines the mystical with the practical—making spirituality accessible, grounded, and actually useful in everyday life. Through her business, Clarity by Christy, she offers Soul Therapy—an intuitively-led coaching experience designed to help clients heal, grow, and align with their highest potential. She helps people to ditch the fear and confusion and live a life that feels more powerful and purposeful.  She also runs the Clarity by Christy Membership, a one-of-a-kind collection of classes, meditations, hypnosis sessions, and tools designed to help people deepen their spiritual practice and personal growth at their own pace.  At the heart of everything she does, Christy's mission is simple: to make spirituality practical, to help people become magnetic, and to remind you that magic isn't something out there—it's already within you.  Whether through coaching, courses, or the membership community, she's here to help you step into your power and create a life that feels just as good as it looks. Connect with Christy:Social Media Links:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/christy.waters1Youtube: @ChristyClarityInstagram: @ChristyClarity TikTok @ChristyClarityWebsite and Membership: www.claritybychristy.comBuilders of Authority:FREE Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/7685392924809322 BOA Mastermind: https://buildauthority.co/order-form-mastermind GoHighLevel Extended 30-day Free Trial w/TONS of Personal Branding Bonuses: http://gohighlevel.com/adammcchesney

What turns a teenage construction worker into a successful architectural entrepreneur? For Lance Cayco, co-founder of F9 Productions, the journey began at age 13 when his first boss taught him the economics of service businesses while roofing houses in North Dakota. That early lesson planted the seeds for a career spanning architecture, construction, business ownership, and community leadership.Lance's path wasn't without significant challenges. After graduating at the top of his architecture class, the Great Recession delivered a devastating blow—layoffs just nine months into his professional career. This setback became the catalyst for founding F9 Productions, built on a revolutionary premise in the architecture world: prioritizing customer service over design ego. As Lance candidly shares, "There's so many architects out there that insist on it being much more of an art than a business." His firm's competitive advantage? Simply answering the phone when potential clients call.The conversation explores how negative role models shaped Lance's business philosophy. Learning from "awful business owners" who laid him off, he built a firm with no layoffs in 15 years by being a "positive reactionary"—deliberately doing the opposite of what caused his former employers to fail. This approach extends to his podcast, Inside the Firm, which transparently shares business lessons to counter the "victimhood rhetoric" discouraging entrepreneurship among younger generations.Beyond business insights, Lance offers a refreshing perspective on integrating professional success with personal fulfillment through his work with Longmont Community Gardens. "Instead of work-life balance, what if we aim for work-life harmony?" he suggests, describing days that seamlessly blend office work with community gardening. For aspiring entrepreneurs questioning when to start their own venture, his advice is counterintuitive yet compelling: "The Great Depression... We started ours in the Great Recession. It put us in a corner of a corner. We were super hungry every day."Practical, inspiring, and refreshingly honest, Lance's story illuminates how entrepreneurship can create both professional success and meaningful community impact when built on discipline and customer-focused foundations.
