Together they are breaking the cycles handed down to them of addictions, depression, abuse, and lies. They are leaving a new legacy for their next generation built on a biblical foundation.    Along with being the sole provider for his family, Erik is an entrepreneur and avid MMA fan. He has created the best MMA podcast in the northwest. He believes in giving back and honoring those that have served our country. With his companies Top Rated MMA and The Erik Allen Show, he is able to do just that. By lifting others up and giving back to the community and veterans through great organizations like Hire Heroes USA.    Another one of the ways Erik is able to give back is by sharing his story and encouraging others, no matter what path they are on to find hope and purpose. Erik's natural approachability and heart for people make him a great speaker for different events and podcasts.

You just had a bad day, not a bad life. Quotes:   “I woke up early and felt God at that moment, say, Dude, you're going down this path that's going to end your life very quickly if you don't make some changes in your life. And so I felt in that moment, it was time to make a change. And I quit cold turkey drugs drinking cigarettes at that moment, and I gave my life to Christ.”   “ If you're struggling with stuff, you have to one decision that you want to change, then take action and get into a new environment and surround yourself with the people that are living the life that you want to live.”   “If you want to make a change is you have to just be grateful like you can journal it, you can write it down.”   “I think that if you are in a relationship, and there's someone that's physically abusing you, or emotionally abusing you, but especially on the physical side of it, like I think that's an open door to walk away.”   “I do love just being part of, you know, entrepreneurs and speaking life into people and, like you said, just been blessed to speak to so many amazing people like yourself as well. And so that's what I do. I love to just talk life into people.”   “Gratitude is huge. Yeah. And I think serving others, like whatever you can do to help others is big because just by giving away your time, or giving away money, or helping somebody do something that maybe they didn't know, but you do, like, you know, just encouraging someone on a daily basis being acknowledged, acknowledging that you're actually living, you got to live another day, if you wake up, right.”   “Acknowledging that it's just a bad moment, right? It's not a bad day.”   “I think freedom is not financially right. It's a mental thing. Right? If you can live life on your own terms. I think that that's the freedom to me.” Erik Allen   Check out Erik Allen social media accounts   Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/ErikAllenMedia  Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/erikgallen/  Twitter - https://twitter.com/ErikGAllen  LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/erikgallen/   YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/TopRatedMMA  Website - https://www.erikallenmedia.com/    Do you want to be a speaker/guest on my podcast?

What are your thoughts on being a Christian?   Our brains have a natural tendency to automatically judge and compare which often prevents us from listening and connecting to another's way of living.   When you first read the word “Christian” you instantly internalize your own biases and reflect those on the person that you are describing.   The reality is our identities come from many different places and not one thing defines who we are. This is the brilliance of hearing Erik’s story. His tumultuous upbringing plagued by unfortunate circumstances of debt, rejection, and hopelessness all changed when we open his heart to Jesus.   On his journey his relationship with God, this soon became the foundation for his approach to life and relationships. For him being a Christian allowed him to maintain positivity in the face of negative circumstances, and approach life with love.   Sharing his story and message of embracing and loving people where they are at, suggests that we might have more in common with someone who at first sight we might judge. “Love people wherever they are at” -Erik Allen   Erik is truly a man of integrity, work ethic and an over-comer.

A little while back, Erik got a phone call from a previous business associate. This individual shared a workspace with Erik about five years ago, where they discussed their businesses, ideas, and strategies on how to grow their companies. In episode 241 of Journey to $100 MIllion, listen in to see what advice Erik gave to this individual. Erik received the call because this individual found a really good employee after having experimented with numerous employees recently. After realizing how good of an employee she hired, she called Erik for advice on whether or not to extend this employee's hours from only ten a week. Once Erik found out she could afford to pay this employee and needed the employee to meet her work demand, Erik advised to double her employee's hours. From Erik's experience, when he got a full-time developer, not only did his supply double, but the demand increased as well. Instead of saying “I can do this work,” he would say “we could do this work.” It changed the dynamic of the conversation, and word got out that his company was growing. Hiring employees is a scary process. But, when you balance that off of the potential inability to do the work without that person, and not being able to grow, it becomes an easy decision. It should not just be a question of if you can afford the employee, but can you afford not to have the employee! — Erik J. Olson is an award-winning digital marketer & entrepreneur.
