On Today's Episode – Mark opens with introducing returning guest Joe Polish (bio below). We learn a little about who Joe is and what he does. Then we move to Joe talking a bit about the event that you all heard about on last week's show where Mark, Joe and others were in a Texas Prison talking to inmates. Tune in for the crazy stories, and all the topics with this extraordinary guest. https://joepolish.com/ Joe Polish is the Founder of Genius Network®, one of the highest level groups in the world for Entrepreneurs. He also curates the Annual Genius Network Event and the 100k Group ($100,000). Genius Network and 100K is home to some of the most successful Entrepreneurs alive. Joe has also helped build thousands of businesses and generated hundreds of millions of dollars for his clients. He has been featured in INC, Fortune, Forbes, Success, U.S News & World Report, among others, and has spoken at Stanford University. Joe also hosts three of the top ranked marketing and business podcasts, including iLoveMarketing.com, 10xTalk.com and GeniusNetwork.com. Recent projects include: Cleator, a 40-acre ghost town he purchased with partners (www.WhatsYourCleator.com). His documentary “CONNECTED: The Joe Polish Story,” premiered at the historic TCL Chinese Theater (formerly Mann's Chinese Theater), and his documentary “Black Star” won the Audience Choice Award at the Sedona Film Festival. Joe's mission with Entrepreneurs and Genius Network® is “to build a better Entrepreneur,” and his mission with Genius Recovery is “to change the global conversation of how people view and treat addicts with compassion, instead of judgment and to find the best forms of treatment that has efficacy and share those with the world. Read his book, “Life Gives To The Giver” at www.JoesFreeBook.com His newest book, What's In It For Them, published by Hay House, released Nov 1, 2022.

Joe Polish is described by many as “the world's most connected man”, Joe is the Founder of Genius Network and Genius Recovery. The former is one of the world's largest and most exclusive communities of entrepreneurs, while the latter is a nonprofit Joe established with the aim of changing the global conversation around addiction. He is the author of two books: Life Gives to the Giver and What's In it For Them, which this interview focuses on. His story is pretty incredible too. After suffering sexual abuse as a child, Joe later fell into problematic substance use and other forms of addiction to numb the pain. When he eventually managed to get sober with the help of 12-step meetings, he then set up a carpet cleaning business, taught himself marketing, and gradually became one of the most connected entrepreneur's on the planet. To give you an idea, he's the person Richard Branson goes to for marketing advice for his nonprofits. This conversation will give you an idea into Joe's thinking and philosophy as we discuss things like: — The surprising connection between entrepreneurship and addiction — How thoughtfulness can radically improve your life — Why Joe invests more time, attention, money, and effort into relationships than any other area of life, and why you should too — How suffering creates opportunities for connection — What he learned from taking a year long sabbatical. And more.

I talk with Patrick Schweiss, executive director of the Sedona International Film Festival. If you can listen to this podcast and not up and make a film specifically so you can apply to Sedona, let me know how you did it. In our conversation, Patrick outlines how the Festival treats its filmmakers like celebrities, what you should have for your festival strategy, what he thinks of hybrid festivals, and what the future of the Sedona Film Festival looks like.When Patrick took the festival over, it was bankrupt. It can't be any further away from that now in terms of vitality and importance in celebrating the creators of independent film. Links:Sedona International Film Festival (https://sedonafilmfestival.com/)Film Freeway Account: https://filmfreeway.com/SedonaInternationalFilmFestivalSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/first-time-go/donations

She is the author of the bestselling book, The 7 Virtues of a Philosopher Queen, and the subject of the feature-length documentary Perfume War, directed by Michael Melski.

They were together until his death in 1996. Currently, Patricia serves as Trustee of The Gene Kelly Image Trust and is the President and Creative Director of The Gene Kelly Legacy, Inc.  She lives in Los Angeles where she is completing a book about her late husband. As part of this work, she is preserving and cataloging The Gene Kelly Archives — an extensive collections of letters, manuscripts, photographs, scripts, interviews, essays, poems, holograph notes, and memorabilia that will eventually be the basis of additional publications and, ultimately, the core of an innovative, virtual Gene Kelly “experience.” Mrs. Kelly has recorded commentary for the DVDs of An American in Paris, The Pirate, Words and Music, Xanadu, and Hello, Dolly!, and is frequently called upon to introduce Gene's films in theaters and at festivals, including two years at the TCM Classic Film Festival. She has been interviewed extensively on TCM and has represented her husband's legacy on numerous PBS specials and pledge drives and on the popular television shows So You Think You Can Dance and Dancing With the Stars.  She regularly hosts scores of dancers and other artists from around the world at her home, sharing insights about the life and work of her late husband through an intimate tour of The Gene Kelly Archives. Patricia has appeared in An Evening with Mrs. Gene Kelly in several cities around the world and her one-woman tribute — Gene Kelly: The Legacy, An Evening with Patricia Ward Kelly — sold out two nights at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences on the occasion of Kelly's centenary in 2012 and has been touring across the United States and abroad the past four years, with sold-out performances at Lincoln Center, The Pasadena Playhouse, Laguna Playhouse, the Sedona Film Festival, and many, many more. In two weeks - Friday, March 17th through Sunday, March 19th - Patricia will be in Seattle to host another one of a kind event, this time at Benaroya Hall - Gene Kelly: A Life in Music.  Gene Kelly dancing on the big screen accompanied live by the Seattle Symphony!  Patricia joined us now from her home Los Angeles.   Connect with Patricia and keep up on the latest Gene Kelly news: On Instagram On Facebook On Twitter On Linkedin
