In this episode, we feature Dr. Jon Turk, a scientist, author, and National Geographic award-winning explorer. Jon has kayaked the North Pacific from Japan to Alaska, lived among the grizzly bears in Kamchatka, and made many first ski descents and first rock climbing ascents around the globe. Jon's most recent travels took him to northeast Kenya, where he lived among the Samburu people during a time where the threat of state-sponsored violence loomed overhead. This trip is the subject of his forthcoming book, “Tracking Lions, Myth, and Wilderness in Samburu.”In our conversation, he takes us to the cradle of humanity's beginnings as we discuss the anthropological origins of myth and how storytelling played an integral role in saving us from the brink of early human extinction. We also explore the dark side of our big brain and how narratives can steer societies toward violence, disaster, and decline. Tune in to learn how the wisdom of our ancestors can help us simplify the unnecessary complexity we create in our lives. ====================0:00 Intro2:55 Why Jon went to Kenya to help track lions4:25 Who are the Samburu and how do they live?9:00 How the Samburu view the stages of male development  13:25 Jon's experience with the threat of violence in Africa18:28 Why is there evil in the world?21:13 According to the fossil record art preceded sophisticated tools 24:25 Evolution can't anticipate the future 26:32 Symbolic art is the creation of a story 27:40 Yuval Noah Harari's thoughts on stories and tribalism 30:43 Will we turn things around in time?33:21 What gives us the power to see truth?37:04 Flow state quiets our internal state 39:00 Jon's five years in a small Siberian village42:15 How do we see ourselves in our stories?43:31 The psychology of encouraging people to reduce their carbon footprint   52:00 The luxury of free, fair, and non-violent elections 54:29 What can save us?58:31 Is Jon done journeying overseas?59:55 “One Final Question”====================Buy the book!

This week your hosts welcome New York Times Bestselling Author, and tall guy, Jon Acuff to talk about his new book Soundtracks. As you are aware, many first responders struggle with an inner monologue that drives us down. "I'm not good enough. I'll never get promoted. I can't find a better job." Researcher Mike Peasley PhD and Jon worked for years in testing a crazy, yet simple theory: What if we changed that soundtrack into something more positive, then acted on it? What if we were able to focus on the positive and have that repeat, rather than constantly hearing that negative nagging in the background? Jon gives some solid, actionable advice to First Responders stuck in that cynical churn of day-in, day-out living. You'll learn: If simply changing the music we listen to can have a positive change What is a turndown and how it can impact a bad day in the field How Jon can be so confident that changing your soundtrack will have a positive effect on your life, personally and professionally Why Jon isn't wearing his Yanni - Live at the Acropolis t-shirt (To skip direct to the interview, jump to the 06:55 minute mark.)

What are you writing as the script for your life? Turn off the victim mindset and tell yourself where you're going to go after every obstacle you face in life. Jon Dorenbos is incredible, multi-talented, and a former NFL player of 14 years with a Super Bowl ring to prove it. He is a world-class magician and has appeared on America's Got Talent and the Ellen DeGeneres show. Jon is also the author of the book Life is Magic that is currently being made into a major motion picture. The highs and lows that Jon has gone through throughout his life are unlike any that most of us will ever experience. While accepting defeat and losing motivation might have been the easier route for Jon, he decided to make the decision to write his own script and use the lows in his life as a springboard to the next high. In this episode, Jon and I talk about the traumatic event from his childhood, how he began pursuing magic, the value of consistency, how his NFL career ended abruptly, and so much more. Jon's life stories are a true testament to the value of vulnerability and why you'll find much more success when you write your own script.

Jon Manning is the Head of Pricing / Chief Economist at MYOB and Author of "Overcoming Floccinaucinihilipilification: Valuing and Monetizing Products and Services". His career has been a journey through the most commonly used pricing methodologies: the cryptic world of oil industry pricing, cost-plus pricing in catering & consumer packaged goods, revenue/yield management in aviation, travel & tourism, and dynamic pricing in internet cafes on the High Streets of the EU and USA. In this episode, Jon shares that more than relying on Twitter and Facebook likes, especially with startup companies, it's essential to have a pricing model at the start, so you provide and create value at the onset. He talks about the book and how it tackles the end-to-end journey in the world of value creation, understanding, monetization, and communication of value.   Why you have to check out today's podcast: Discover and understand the value-based pricing canvas so you can provide value even at the start of your business Learn to identify the sources of value in your product and services to define your value proposition clearly Find out how you can be focused on value creation but making it more powerful with behavioral economics in consideration   "It's all about value, really. So, just make sure you understand the value. And if you're monetizing value you just can't go wrong." - Jon Manning   Topics Covered: 01:25 - Talking about Jon's book: Overcoming Floccinaucinihilipilification 03:40 - How does a crowdsourcing website work for Pricing Prophets? 06:35 - What is a value-based pricing canvas as the main gist of Jon's book 08:30 - How each cell in a canvas work 10:34 - Talking about the internal pricing processes and customer-facing processes in the pricing canvas 13:18 - Where creating value appears in the book 15:28 - Talking about the second half of the book about customer value analysis 16:43 - Why Jon put behavioral economics at the last part of the book 20:24 - Sharing an exciting experience where behavioral economics is concerned 21:36 - What got Jon started in Pricing 22:38 - The best pricing advice Jon shares that can have a significant impact in your business   Key Takeaways: “What's really been interesting is that sort of six, seven years down the track, when I go into those workshops now, nine out of 10 businesses do have a pricing model when they start. They realize they provide value from day one.” - Jon Manning “The first part of the book is to make use of the canvas to identify the sources of value in your product or service. And that's a collection of approximately about 15 quadrants which will help you be able to clearly define your value proposition, the economic value you provide, how you stack up against the competition and things like that.” - Jon Manning “The second half of the book then says, okay, let's take your understanding of value now. And let's actually strike a price point for you based on one of four value-based pricing methodologies. So, it's a sort of end-to-end journey.” - Jon Manning “One of the methodologies I walked through in the second half of the book is customer value analysis. And I only talk about a very basic version of customer value analysis, but just through that exercise, and other methodologies that other authors have written about, you can quickly identify features that should be included or excluded from a package if you're asking the right questions to customers.” - Jon Manning “I like behavioral economics, it is useful. I agree that it should be value first, behavioral economics second, but it can also be powerful at the same time.” - Jon Manning   People/Resources mentioned: Overcoming Floccinaucinihilipilification: Valuing and Monetizing Products and Services by Jon Manning Zen Ore 99 Designs   Connect with Jon Manning: https://pricingprophets.com/ LinkedIn   Connect with Mark Stiving:  Email: mark@impactpricing.com LinkedIn

My guest today is Joseph Henrich, a professor at Harvard and an expert on the evolution of human cooperation and culture. I am a big fan of his book, "The Secret of Our Success" and he just published a new one called the Weirdest People in the World about people who fall under the acronym WEIRD: Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic. Through his research, he explains culture's role in evolution. He shows how evolutionary theory can help us learn, innovate, and share knowledge. We begin this episode by talking about the role big Gods play in cultural evolution. Then we talk about the time Joe spent living with small-scale societies in rural Peru and Fiji. He talks about how he learns the language, plans the trips, and assimilates into societies so he can study them. Towards the end of the podcast, we talk about what economists can learn from anthropologists and the evolution of attraction. My favorite part of the conversation was learning about the tradeoffs between having an open or closed society, and how those factors contribute to innovation. Please enjoy my conversation with Joseph Henrich. ____________________________ Show Notes 2:06 - How the role of God has evolved over time and why bigger and bigger Gods have become the norm. 4:50 - Why acting as a third party for people made Gods culturally and socially so much more important. 8:36 - Marriage across cultures and religions and why they diverge sometimes wildly from what Western culture considers "normal". 13:44 - Why many religious restrictions that created the Western norm of a nuclear family also set up the stage for heightened individualism. 16:58 - How and why social safety nets transitioned from kin-based institutions to the states and governments. 18:46 - What surprising similarities and differences Joe saw between Americans and the Machiguenga of the Peruvian Amazon. 22:22 - The role of humor in enforcing social norms, why Joe thinks it is absolutely universal, and the other universal ways trust is built-in communities. 28:35 - How narcotics and psychedelics are utilized in different cultures and the way their roles differ. 31:20 - Why cultural imitation does not always yield positive outcomes. 33:11 - How the introduction of agriculture changed family relationships and culture. 39:36 - The biggest takeaways Joe got from Guns, Germs, and Steel. 43:28 - Why Joe believes that religion is innate in human beings. 50:31 - The possible implications of losing rituals that for millennia have brought families and clans closer together. 52:24 - What the clock and a universal time have done to human psychology. 1:01:16 - What the collective brain is and why it is so prevalent throughout creative booms in history. 1:04:55 - How the proliferation of information helps and hurts creativity, and why the internet hasn't had the impact people thought it would. 1:08:26 - How information is affected by biases and manipulation and why humans are so susceptible to them. 1:11:39 - How the technology, institutions, and tools we use affect the way that we think. 1:15:12 - Why learning disabilities should not be looked at as purely negative and the benefits that cognitive diversity brings to humanity. 1:19:00 - The way gossip in a society helps define the collective philosophy of its people. 1:21:07 - How imitative education is currently at its peak and what doors it opens for people around the world. 1:24:36 - Why rituals and multiple gods were so common in the past and are so uncommon now. 1:28:40 - How Jon would alter the current research practices in the social sciences on "WEIRD" people and why. 1:31:39 - Why certain assumptions about humans are actually specific to a region or population, and why they don't represent humanity as a whole. 1:35:10 - Why the top-down lecture model is not serving education as well as it should, and why it shouldn't be replaced completely by Youtube. 1:39:20 - The selective physical and cultural evolution of certain populations and why it happens the way it does. 1:42:12 - What Jon finds to be the most interesting elements of culture to study and why. 1:45:33 - Why Jon's aerospace engineering degree is so valuable in his anthropology career. 1:47:41 - The problem with focusing solely on models in research and studies. 1:53:20 - Why humanity seems to be stagnating in intelligence but rocketing upward in cultural development.

Vigor Life Podcast · EP119: A Masterclass On Building A Profitable & Sustainable Online Coaching Business w/ Jon Goodman Jonathan Goodman is the creator of the Personal Trainer Development Center. Since 2011, he has supported fitness professionals by publishing over a million words, growing some of the largest online communities, publishing several books and establishing the first-ever certification for online trainers, the Online Trainer Academy. He's been featured in most major business and fitness publications including Men's Health, Forbes, Entrepreneur, Muscle & Fitness and Inc. – to name a few. Originally from Toronto, Canada, Jon spends his winters exploring the World with his wife and son. Jon and I dive deep into the foundational principles of what it takes to build a successful business and then pivot to get specifically into building and online coaching brand that is profitable, sustainable and stands the test of time. If you’re a coach looking to build an online business (or ANY type of business in the fitness space) then this is a MUST listen to episode. Let's go. IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN What’s going to happen with most coaches in the industry when it comes to the future of in person and online training. Everything works, from blogs, podcasts, Instagram, YouTube, etc. but here is what you MUST follow to succeed on any platform. Jon breaks down exactly what he would do if he started on a social platform to succeed and also make money. The reason why Jon never did podcasts but is now starting his own – and the most powerful reasons to do one. The process of building a specific skillset that will help you position yourself, generate leads, make sales and build a real business. Lessons about not launching too early with a sub-par product (a big mistake many people make). Why you don’t need to stress about missing out on new platforms that could “blow up.” We discuss what you really need to focus on. The reason you shouldn’t start with paid advertising and how to make your first sales and build “the machine.” The 5/1/60 Principle that will help you create a compelling offer to get your first clients. The exact steps to get your first 5 clients online—even if you don’t have a big social media following—and be able to get you started with online coaching. The truth about building an online coaching businesses fast and keeping it sustainable. Picking lower price point membership sites vs. high end coaching – what works and what you certainly shouldn’t do. Jon and I break it down in detail. The lessons from a friend and mentor who built one of the biggest niche programs and sold it for over a 100+ million to the Golf Channel. Why Jon has written 11 books and where the real value comes in from. What is possible for an online coach when it comes to serving clients and providing a great service (how many clients, price points, automation, hybrid models). Jon is building an online fitness company and breaks down exactly how they will do it step-by-step, from launch, hiring break down, organization, marketing… (steal this!) What Jon recommends to gym owners when it comes to growth and also adding online coaching possibilities. Why do we run away from the things that are different even though they’re better for us, and how to change it (stemming from an example Jon gives on an opportunity missed by a big chain gym in Canada). As a fitness professional you’re going to come out of COVID in one of two ways. Learn them. The power of being great on camera and whether you can be successful without it. And much more.   LINKS AND RESOURCES Jon Goodman Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jonathan_goodman101/ The Personal Trainer Development Center: https://www.theptdc.com/ Online Trainer Academy: https://www.theptdc.com/online-trainer-academy-certification-c?utm_expid=.0kYl7KMnRuawga9mWgeQLg.1&utm_referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F

Harrison requested that Jon try to sell him on U2, so Jon chose their third album, 1983's War (huh!) and set to work. We talk about the band's sense of urgency in their early recordings, Bono's strict antiwar and antiviolence stance, and what it meant in the rock world of the early 80s. Did it work? Listen to find out! We also discuss... Why Jon picked War (huh!) over other U2 albums, even ones he might like better The Edge's guitar rig (notably his delay pedal), and how public perception of it has changed over the years Steve Lillywhite's contributions as producer How Larry Mullen Jr.'s drums are the "secret weapon" of this album How The Edge's guitar is the not-so-secret weapon of the album How Bono took a love song to his wife and turned it into a Soviet WWII ballad The guest musicians from Kid Creole's backing band on "Red Light" and "Surrender" Bono's moral cosmology on "Surrender" How the evocative imagery directly from the Bible used in "'40'" upstages the rest of the album Our key tracks and the PLAY DISC Request Lottery Come join us for an hour of thoughtful and good-humored commentary, and we'll catch you on the B-side!

On this episode, we’re joined by Realtor, and founder and lead coach at Top Notch Agents, Jon Holsten. After a career in law enforcement, and TV sales, he transitioned into real estate, and in the first year was able to close 47 transactions, a very big feat for new real estate agents. Jon built his career on the foundation of community, and he came into the industry with the right mindset, which led to the right actions and decisions. What holds many real estate agents back are the mindsets they have about the business and what they need to do to get results. On this episode, Jon shares the 4 myths of Real Estate, and 5 Factors will ensure success as a brand new agent.  What holds people back from success in real estate isn’t the market.    The most successful agents know that it takes work, humility and dedication to make it really far. We won’t achieve our goals by expecting the results to fall into our laps, we do it by building the right habits and doing the right things consistently.    In Today’s Episode, We Talk About;   01:15 - Jon’s journey into the real estate world and life before  04:41 - How Jon got 47 closings in the first year  09:53 - Why Jon didn’t choose to build a team  13:08 - The 4 myths of real estate and how they trip people up  15:47 - The 5 pillars of business that will help people do well in real estate

This episode we get together to discuss a variety of topics, ultimately centring around the seeming decline of popular culture into endless sequels and entertainment-by-algorithm. Where did it all go wrong, and why are so many of us still comfort-eating the shit out of it? In the wake of the Golden Globes and the release of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood we pause to reflect on why so many contemporary films and TV shows are so unconvincing. In a world saturated by 'cultural content', are we (and the actors themselves) becoming trapped in a hall of mirrors, constantly trying to be self-referential rather than capturing the moment as it unfolds? Culture by algorithm is a shitty way to live, and we reflect instead on the joys of the artistic creations that we've loved and lost ourselves in.   Also Including: The disturbing story of Britain's most prolific rapist What are 'Type A' and 'Type B' personalities – and do they matter? Why Jon is considering doing a nude photoshoot Andrea's distaste for The Rock Realising you're not everyone's cup of tea Get In Touch!

This week on the PRmoment podcast, I’m pleased to welcome Jon Lonsdale, CEO and joint founder of Octopus. Octopus has a fee income of £5m and is an independent technology-focused PR firm in London. The business has been going for nearly 18 years and was founded by three mates who worked together at Bite. Those friendships are still intact and are still at the heart of the business. Octopus has also, in Jon’s words “bet the farm” on its brands to sales positioning of the agency and we'll be talking about that, amongst other things, in this podcast. [00:01:14] Why Jon reckons "running a business with your mates is about as good as it gets." [00:02:44] How Jon, Billy Hamilton-Stent and Pete Hendrick have retained such a good working environment between themselves over such a prolonged period of time. [00:03:04] Why Jon and the partners of the business have treated themselves as employees to avoid Octopus having a "cult of the owner." [00:06:03 ] How Octopus has codified and developed a methodology for its brands to sales approach. [00:06:13] Why Octopus has specified hard sales metrics in many client contracts. [00:07:03] Jon discusses how PR firms are able to have radically different commercial conversations with clients when you're willing to commit to hard sales metrics. [00:07:23] Jon talks us through Octopus's client scorecards approach to KPIs. [00:08:27] The interconnectivity of reputation and sales. [00:13:23] Jon describes the structural changes they made to the business as a result of its brands to sales approach "ripping the business up." [00:13:35] How it took four years to restructure the business to the new approach. [00:14:01] Why Octopus has had to reskill the whole agency around digital techniques and digital marketing.[00:14:49] Why Octopus's net client fees have gone up since taking a brands to sales approach.[00:16:02] Why Jon believes PR teams moving to an impact on sales approach, increases budgets and means that as an agency you become a sales tool, not an overhead. [00:19:30] Jon discusses Octopus's internal training programme called the Brand to Sales Academy. [00:24:43] Why modern agencies need to have the capacity to flex and move skills and people around. [00:25:07] Jon talks us through the reasons Octopus had a tough year in 2017. [00:28:20] Why a failed pitch lead to Jon and his business partners abandoning a multi-brand approach for the agency. [00:31:08] Jon describes why he loves running a business in the technology sector. [00:33:07] Jon and I explore the theory that it's easier for B2B PR firms to win larger parts of an integrated brief than their consumer peers. [00:35:10] Why Jon believes that the creativity in B2B campaigns is just as good as the creativity in B2C, it's just not as loud. [00:40:14] Jon identifies the type of PR buyer who wants to purchase all their marketing services from one place.

This week on the PRmoment Podcast, in the latest of our life stories series, I’m pleased to welcome CEO of Golin Jon Hughes.Global PR firm Golin has a fee income of about $240m. Jon has been at Golin for about 14 years, he spent six years in the UK as co-managing director alongside Matt Neale, before moving to Hong Kong to head up its international business. He became CEO alongside Matt Neale and Gary Rudnick in 2017.Here are some of the highlights of what Jon and I discussed: [00:01:15] How Jon went from working in IT sales and ended up as global CEO of a top-ten global PR firm. [00:04:28] Whether Jon has Jon got more “PR royalty” mates than anyone else? [00:06:04] Why Jon “didn't really know” Matt Neale before they became joint UK MDs of Golin. [00:07:59] Why the sector experience of Matt and Jon combined to mean that they together were the right combination to take Golin forward [00:08:52] Why Golin in London had lost its identity before Matt and Jon took over in 2005. [00:09:50] How Fred Cook's management style gave Matt and Jon "headspace" which allowed them to do things that ordinarily they wouldn't have done. [00:11:08] Why London is a hub of innovation not just for Golin, but for PR as an industry. [00:12:12] How Golin in London has grown from 25 people in 2005 to 200 today - Jon talks us through how an agency business can go on such a prolonged period of growth. [00:12:33] Why all agencies go through cycles of success and then have to reinvent.[00:12:56] Why one of Al Golin's mantras "fix it before it breaks" is on Jon's office wall.[00:15:35] Why winning the Orange pitch meant Golin was able to hire some great consumer talent in 2006 - Bibi Hilton! [00:17:47] Why agencies need "that freshness and that hunger at scale - that's when you know you're on the money." [00:20:58] Why the client "Palm" was a critical part of the story that lead to the renewal of Glolin as a global firm.[00:22:33] Jon talks us through the G4 model ten years on.[00:26:44] Why PR firms trying to be all things to all people ends up in a vanilla proposition.[00:26:53] Why Golin has recently rebranded as a PR agency. [00:28:30] Why, when PR people run out of conversation, they either talk about PR trade bodies or the definition of PR. [00:28:51] Why some people have seen Golin rebranding itself as a PR firm as a regressive step. [00:30:29] Why Jon took the president international job in Hong Kong in 2005 despite him originally thinking that Matt Neale was going to get it.[00:32:46] Why Jon enjoys building businesses and managing change.[00:34:35] Jon compares the working styles of India, China, Singapore and Taiwan.[00:35:22] Jon talks us through Golin’s buying criteria for when it makes an acquisition.[00:37:17] Why (as the acquirer) you have to expect the unexpected when you do acquisitions.[00:38:01] Why holding groups don't acquire for revenue, they acquire for the specialism and talent.[00:38:54] Jon talks us through where Virgo Health is today, following its acquisition of Golin in 2012.[00:39:45] Following Golin's acquisition of Magic, Jon talks us through what it's like trying to buy a business in China.[00:41:30] Jon talks about how he sees the PR agency market heading from an acquisition perspective.[00:43:33] Jon discusses his favourite memories of Al Golin.

Four months ago, my wife and I went through the most transformational process we have ever embarked upon. It was called Lifebook Although you can now go through the entire Lifebook process online, no matter where you live in the world, we did ours in Estonia - jam-packed into a room with over 20 other individuals who, like us, wanted to get ultimate clarity, direction and purpose for each aspect of their lives. I think of my Lifebook as me, in a book. In other words, if I were to, God forbid, get hit by a bus tomorrow, someone would be able to hand my children my Lifebook and say, "Here. Here is your Dad, in a book. This is everything he stands for, believes in and values, and everything he would have wanted to teach to you about life. My Lifebook now holds a precious place in the mantle above the fireplace in our home, and has also been integrated into our family trust. As you can imagine, I'm very proud and excited of this discovery, and I wanted to get the inventor of the Lifebook on the podcast: Jon Butcher - who . Along with his wonderful wife Missy, Jon is a serial entrepreneur and the creators of Lifebook, an extraordinary system that has helped thousands transform their lives from ordinary to a living masterpiece. Jon and Missy have learned how to defy aging, experience long-lasting love, redefine education and build the perfect living environment (trust me, I've been to their home and it is a complete dream house). Drawing from deeply personal experiences, Jon and Missy, along with their partner, Joe Polish, also founded the Artists For Addicts project. Its mission is to change the global conversation surrounding addiction from one of judgment to one of compassion. During our discussion, you'll learn...  -Why Jon and his wife Missy are moving to Hawaii after 30 years living in Chicago...8:25 Consistent with the purpose of the Lifebook: To find clarity in your "life vision". Hawaii has always been a special place for Jon and Missy, even after visiting nearly 100 countries. More leisure, less activity in day to day life. -About Jon's unique philosophy on raising his children...11:45 "Respectful disregard" for the status quo. Look at options, make a decision independent of what others may choose. Underwent a "vision quest" recently with his family. Historical examples of boys becoming men via a rite of passage Underwent Vision Quest with a in France. Targeted specifically to Jon's 14 year old son, family did it in support The son learned the hard way to remember to pack all your gear. Was a profound experience for Jon personally and especially for his son. The Earth can heal you. Modern kids don't learn to deal with real hardship. -The story of how Lifebook came to be...27:40 Living fast and furious in his 20's; caught up with him in early 30's. Two panic attacks Agoraphobia, nervous breakdown Jon's dad ordered two self-development programs: Attacking Anxiety; Personal Power 2 8 year process of healing Jon kept notes from all his self-development programs in a binder: Breakthroughs, Goals, etc. Eventually focused on 12 categories to create an extraordinary life Evolved over a period of 15 years; never showed it to anyone else. Introduced it to a health and fitness group; others expressed interest in creating one Astounding results Jon and Missy knew they had something special on their hands Didn't want to share; But it was something they couldn't NOT do. -The 12 areas the Lifebook optimizes and why Jon chose them...40:10 "Personal" Health and fitness Intellectual life Emotional life Personal Character Spiritual life "Relationship" Love and romance Parenting (yours and your own parents) Social life - friends and extended family "Professional" Career Financial life Quality of Life Overall Life Vision -The overall strategy by which you accomplish your Lifebook experience...45:55 Four steps to each category Premise Purpose Vision Strategy Four questions for each category: What do I believe about...? What do I want in the realm of...? Why do I want...? What do I need to get...? The primary motivation for each category will probably change, i.e. health and fitness vs. money -Ben reveals his weakest category in the Lifebook process and how his overall life purpose helped strengthen it...53:12 -How to undertake the Lifebook experience online for a fraction of the cost of an in-person event...1:03:00 You can do it for free. The catch: You need to finish the program. Pay a $500 deposit. If you finish, you get it back or apply to another program. -And much more!

How has God worked in your life to put you in the places to accomplish HIs purpose? How far have you come? If you’re honest, you’ll admit that your life has been a journey that you could have never predicted. You can probably point to the markers and moments along the way that have been pivotal in influencing your faithfulness and passion for His work. Today’s guest is living proof that God’s ways are higher than ours and His purpose is bigger than we can imagine.   Jon Tyson is a widely respected church planter and leader in NYC. Originally from Australia, Jon moved to the US two decades ago with a passion to cultivate renewal in the Western Church. Jon has spoken at Q Conference, Catalyst, and other key venues around the world. His preaching addresses culture and faith with a rare fusion of passion and depth. He has been featured in Christianity Today, NY Times, and Relevate. Jon lives in the Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood of Manhattan with his wife and two children.   More in the episode:   Jon’s story of dropping out of high school at age 16 to be a butcher in a meat factory in a sketchy neighborhood in Australia and coming to the US at age 20 to study theology The visionary boss at the meat factory and the incredible vision he cast for Jon How Jon became a Christian at age 17 at a Pentecostal Youth Revival at what is now Planet Shakers Church The scholarship miracle that allowed Jon to come to the US to study at Bible college A foundational verse for Jon’s life, in his own words: Habakkuk 3:2--”I’ve heard about who you are, Lord. I’m in awe of what you do, and I want you to do it in our day. Make what you’ve done in other generations known now.” The theme of Jon’s life: Closing the gap between what God has promised and what we are experiencing Sharing his testimony at the youth revival and how the Youth Pastor marked that moment to wake up Jon’s destiny and call something out of him Jon’s early morning habit of earnest prayer for revival and the fire that burned within him How he spent the next three years being persecuted for his faith as he completed his apprenticeship at the meat factory Three years of character training, prayer, and the open doors to come to the US How the character and integrity of Jesus has to be the foundation of ministry and influence and success or we collapse into a “sinkhole”--”We have to tend to the secret life of intimacy with Jesus.” How he dealt with the ridicule and temptation at the meat factory and influenced his co-workers through his character and integrity The root of Christianity in discipling others and leading churches: Being faithful in small things Jon’s “Red Sea” story of NYC church planting and being homeless while apartment hunting Jon’s biggest strength: “The ability to handle drama and keep believing that God is going to come through.”” Jon’s weakness within that strength: “Sometimes not meeting people in the emotional pain of their lives in sympathy.” Why Jon wrote The Burden is Light to offer people hope in the things they wrestle with daily The dangers of pride, comparison, and discontentment The analogy of the ring with three layers: The call before God, the people we serve, and the people who are eavesdropping on our mission What Jon sees in today’s culture: distraction vs. presence: why we need to learn to pay attention to the life around us How to align your passion with action instead of aligning your passion with opinion Jon’s advice to himself at age 30--”In my desire to model personal humility, I did not demonstrate enough executive will. I had too much of a peacemaking spirit. I would say to steward the call God has for you and I would realign personal humility and executive will in my life.” A recommended book: The New Copernicans by John Seel Jon’s advice: From Hebrews: “God rewards those who diligently seek Him. Seek Him and press into everything He has, and He’ll reward you in ways you can’t imagine.”   Resources:   www.church.nyc Find Jon on Twitter and Instagram Like Are You Real on Facebook and send us a message for a chance to win a free copy of Jon’s new book!

“Maybe in life the real risk is not taking risks.” If you’re up for a deep, intellectual conversation that gets you thinking, then you’re in for a real treat with this episode. That’s because I’m speaking with the incredible Jon Berghoff. Raised in the birthplace of Apple, Jon is a father of three and the co-founder and president of the Flourishing Leadership Institute. Jon is one of the most curious people I’ve ever met. His super smart, analytical brain is dialled into the benefit of human systems. His mind is always on because he’s constantly looking to be better. I learned so much from this episode and I’m sure you will too. Passionate about unified mindfulness (which Jon talks about in detail during this episode), Jon is fascinated with unlocking human systems to empower others to be the best they can possibly be. It’s why topics such as concentration, presence, and curiosity feature strongly - because they are keys that can unlock life. “We end up choosing work that unknowingly we’re trying to heal something from our past - we’re trying to be whole.” As well as business and personal development, Jon also talks at length and his kids. Currently aged, 8, 6, and 4 Jon describes how parenthood can be polarizing and how his children teach him so much. If you’re a parent too, I think you’ll love the down-to-earth conversation we have about the challenges of juggling work and home. So brew yourself a coffee and get ready to be stimulated. Thanks to Jon’s wisdom and passion for what he does, I guarantee you’ll be left with some new ideas - even some entirely new thoughts - that will empower you to find more success, fulfillment, and happiness in your everyday. “The more present I can be, the more connected I can be to the highest possible potential that could emerge at any given situation.” Some questions I ask: What was it like for you when you grew up and how did your job roles shape you? [0:56]How does your obsession with learning factor into your life today? [10:15]How does presence bake itself into your life and what tools do you use to be more present. [18:25]How do you bring passionate mindfulness to moments and situations you don’t really want to be in. [25:06]How does gratitude fit into the practice of mindfulness? [35:27]What have you learned from your own kids? [35:27]How do you stay grounded on a daily basis. [44:36] In this episode, you will hear about: The story of the most important thing Jon’s dad taught him and how it unlocked a part of his DNA. [4:05]The time at high school when Jon’s life was completely turned around - and what his first mentor told him. [6:16]The connection between Jon’s work at Facebook & BMW and his childhood struggles. [8:52]Why Jon wants to be intentional with his curiosity and what doors that opens for him. [11:00]Jon’s intentional learning plan and the importance of your value system. [11:14]Why curiosity is a strength and a shadow and how Jon manages this. [12:29]Systemic mindfulness, how you unlock it, and the ultimate end goal. [13:40]Jon’s criteria for reading and the inspiring reason he won’t just pick up a book. [16:47]The O’Brien Principle and why this is critical for your life. [21:47]How mindfulness strengthens your attention muscle and why this is the common denominator for anything Jon wants to get done. [24:45]The attention skills that mindfulness helps you develop. [27:40]Jon’s empowering definition of sensory clarity and how it helps you be more mindful and present. [30:41]Jon’s thoughts on gratitude. [37:00]Why having kids is a sobering, polarizing experience. [44:00] How to contact JonLearn more about Jon’s work at www.lead2flourish.comWhat else do you want to include here Raj?

“Our whole lives are made up of moments… How we approach the here and now ultimately writes the stories of our lives.” Ever felt as though you’re missing out on life as it happens? It’s a common concern. When you’re juggling a ton of responsibilities (and a to-do list that never ends) your head and body aren’t in the same place! And when you’re chasing the future and rushing over the here and now, you end up missing out on a lot. It’s why I was so excited to chat with Jon in this episode. Jon is on a mission to show people how to live life in the front row - and his tool of choice is moment making. It’s a mindset I totally buy into. I used to focus on the grind. I used to constantly chase the next promotion or the next big goal because I believed that’s what would make me feel successful. But I soon discovered this mindset puts you in a game you’ll never win. That’s because life isn’t a journey. Instead, it’s a series of here and now moments. And my guest today reveals how to grasp that profound insight and use it to create the life you want. “Personal growth isn’t always about learning something new, it’s often about remembering something true.” Jon Vroman is an award-winning speaker who’s given more than 750 keynote presentations for many companies, organizations, universities, and associations. He’s also the #1 bestselling author of The Front Row Factor. Transform Your Life with The Art of Moment Making. Jon is a real authority on this important approach to living so I was grateful to find out more about his ‘rituals, routines, and rhythms’. We cover a lot of ground in this episode. From the lessons you can learn from people battling life-threatening illnesses to tangible strategies that put you in the front row, this conversation gets profound. So tune in now and learn how you can master the art of moment making in episode #29. “I have learned so much about living lifefrom people who are fighting for it.” Some questions I ask:How do you define ‘moment making’. (1:14)How has your awareness of the power of moments allowed you to create more moments that matter? (3:52)When joining up the dots, how do you process a backstory of extraordinary pain and shift your mindset to look for growth and meaning. (6:44)How has your dedication to moment making led to career success? (12:14)What first step would you recommend to someone who knows they’re not a ‘front row friend’? (16:55)What do you do on a daily basis to get centered and remind yourself what’s really important in life? (19:20)How does scheduling time for you FIRST allow you to do more? (24:09)Where did you learn about the pendulum analogy? (32:00)How has teaching your message about moment making made you a better recipient of that message? (35:33)How do you stay grounded on a daily basis? (38:51) In this episode, you will hear about: What it means to ‘live life in the front row’. (2:48)The question to ask yourself to become a ‘moment maker’ - for yourself and others. (3:25)The experience that sparked the creation of the Front Row Foundation.Your mess becomes your message: Why humans are ‘meaning makers’ and how this influences our lives. (8:15)Jon’s story - and the meaning he applied to his childhood. (9:07)What Jon learned from Nicky - a stage 4 breast cancer sufferer. (9:37)Why it matters who’s in your front row - and how this awareness can change your life. (15:10)Why you need systems to live in the front row and the impact being your own ‘marketing manager’ has. (19:55)The proximity principle, the law of familiarity, and why Jon keeps a gym bag in his car. (22:15)Why Jon color codes his calendar and how this ensures his life doesn’t get eaten up. (24:56)The great equalizer and how this inspires Jon. (26:00)Why you should visualize the future and reflect on your past - and how this is different from ‘living’ in the future. (29:57)The power of teaching and how it helps you articulate your truth. (35:40) How to contact JonLearn more about Jon at www.FrontRowFactor.com.

Jon Satterley is an experienced entertainment & media industry executive and thought leader. I have been recognized as an innovator with expert knowledge of new products, emerging technology and digital business strategy.   When he was just 17, Jon started a record label and wound up signing hundreds of bands while studying to get his law degree.  Jon led digital strategy for Roadrunner Records: growing from a small independent record company to become one of the world’s leading labels. Today, Jon is the Chief Digital Officer at Village Roadshow, and we’ve been working together on the Xperience Accelerator, a program that brings together startups working with VR/AR and Village to develop new applications for the entertainment industry.   We explored lots of questions during this conversation, often going off on tangents, and three things you can expect to learn: Why Jon decided to pursue his record label instead of a career in law and what helped him shun societal expectations in favour of taking the path less traveled How to be a successful intrapreneur in a large organisation; and What the future of VR and AR looks like.   Of course, as a big heavy metal fan myself, we also spent some time talking about Jon’s time at Roadrunner Records.   Topics discussed: eSports: what it is and where it’s going Jon’s background How to be an intrapreneur at a large company How to get buy in from senior executives The question of morality and emerging technology What the future of VR/AR is Other trends entertainment companies should look out for Metal!   Show Notes: Jon Satterley: https://au.linkedin.com/in/satterley Xperience VR/AR Accelerator: www.xperienceaccelerator.cc The Power Broker: Robert Moses and the Fall of New York: https://amzn.to/2P7GgIB   Join the conversation on Facebook: www.facebook.com/groups/futuresquared/where you can discuss episodes, request guests, propose questions for forthcoming guests and access exclusive content and special offers!

After the romantic phase of our relationship ended I wondered, why doesn't he buy me flowers anymore? We chat about how small things like flowers can show one another appreciation, and how some people don't feel the same way about flowers (hint: Jon)! Sometimes we wander through the day feeling like no one appreciates us. As my hands wrinkle from the fourth time of washing dishes in the day without any thanks from the family, I watch the water swirl away and feel like those little bits of food left in the sink drain. When the kids were young it felt like I was a robot trapped in a time loop - make a meal, clean up a meal, change a diaper, and repeat. The young ones were not in a place to say "thank you," and at the time I couldn't communicate with Jon what I was needing - some gratitude. So, it seemed like what I was missing were flowers. Yes, flowers were the answer because I used to receive them and I remember feeling happier. It must be the flowers! As we talk about in this episode, it isn't necessarily the flowers that I have been looking for all of these years, but a gesture of appreciation, a reminder that I am loved. Flowers are a simple way for me to feel thought of, where Jon feels more appreciated by affirming words or loving touch. This episode is about communicating how we feel appreciated in our relationship. Maybe we need to toss in some loving gestures into our day and say "thank you" for working so hard for the family in a little way. And if you need a little more nature and beauty in your life than you are receiving, wander through the grocery store and grab a bouquet of flowers for yourself like I do! (Theme music: Ethan Anderson) I created a special Conversation Starter for you to explore today's topic together.

''There's nothing you're going to do today to earn or deserve tomorrow.'' - Jon Vroman  This week on The Elite Advisor Blueprint, I get the chance to talk with Jon Vroman. Jon is an American award-winning motivational speaker, author, philanthropist, podcaster, personal coach, ultra-marathon runner, founder of the Front Row Foundation and most importantly, husband and father. I got to know Jon personally at a dad’s retreat last year that he ran with his good friend Jon Berghoff who we had on in episode 16 of the podcast. Jon has one of the biggest hearts of anyone I’ve ever met and has a truly inspiring story. After an incredible start to his career in the sales industry where he climbed the corporate ladder very quickly, he made the decision to literally step into his boss’s office and quit so he could start a charity. This led to him co-founding the Front Row Foundation which helps create “Front Row” type experiences for those suffering from life threatening illnesses. This has included past recipients literally sitting front and center and often meeting their favorite athletes or entertainers. Performers like Justin Bieber, Jason Aldean, Garth Brooks, Jimmy Buffett, Carrie Underwood, Bon Jovi, & Alan Jackson. Along with professional athletes like Steve Nash, Johnny Damon, and Derek Jeter. Jon shared some incredibly powerful stories during our conversation on how they’ve been able to impact others that are battling for their life, but also how these experiences have impacted his life in return. Be ready for some emotional moments as Jon had me on the verge of tears multiple times with the stories he shared. For many of you Blueprint listeners who have helped us raise over $25,000 during our past March Madness Charity events, I’m proud to announce that we are partnering with Jon and The Front Row Foundation this year. So, if you are moved by this conversation, we’ve made it easy to help create a “Front Row" experience that will help someone battling a life threatening illness.

Also, we have created a special page for this years event, go to bradleyjohnson.com/charitychallenge if you’d like to help us make a difference for someone in need.

On several recent podcasts, I've mentioned that (especially when I've been traveling and have limited equipment), one of my key, go-to workouts is a program known as "", which I now consider to be one of fastest methods for developing power and strength with little more than your own bodyweight and, optionally, a kettlebell or two, adding slabs of functional muscle to a lean frame quickly, and building muscle recruitment and explosiveness in a smart, systematic way.  Neuro-Mass gives you the exact protocols you need to create an impressive, functional, athletic physique, combining the best kettlebell resistance and bodyweight exercises with a new cutting edge training method called "". These Neuro-Sets, comprised of grinds, isometrics and explosive movements, create rapid physique transformation. While most training programs only focus on one approach to create growth or lean muscle or power or strength, Neuro-Mass uses multiple stressors in a single workout to create a better and smarter body, developing pure power combined with amazing capacity for sustained and continual strength output. The entire program was designed by this episode's podcast guest: Jon Bruney. Jon's exploits as Guinness World Record-holding strongman have been immortalized in Ripley’s Believe it or Not and seen on NBC’s: America’s got Talent, The Today Show and TruTv’s Guinness World Records Unleashed. A true renaissance man in the realm of strength-development, Jon is a best-selling author, world-class trainer, coach, motivational speaker, strongman, and pastor. Jon’s work with competitive athletes includes Olympians and NFL players. He is the author of the best-seller “”. He also writes a training series called “Foundations” which is featured in , widely considered the world’s most prestigious strength training journal. As co-owner of Submit Strength Equipment, Jon has been responsible for the design of numerous pieces of cutting-edge training equipment now in use around the world. Jon is also a veteran of numerous trainer certification courses.

Jon Nastor is the guy behind a coupe of highly successful podcasts (Hack The Entrepreneur and The Showrunner) and over the past 3 years built a product called VelocityPage. One of the first products that allowed you to quickly create landing pages without knowing how to code. VelocityPage was unique and made a huge splash on the market. Over time Jon’s plans changed. And that’s when the focus of VelocityPage began to fall apart, and what Jon and I discuss. Here’s what Jon shares: How Jon first came up with the idea to start VelocityPage. What triggered the hard decision to close the business, even though he is still making sales. Why he didn’t feel good about the fact people will were buying his product. Why it was important for Jon to get Mark Jaquith as the lead developer, even though he didn’t know Mark at the time. Why he said he didn’t put enough action into this business, and didn’t want to. How the concept of “Hell Yeah!” drove the nail in the coffin before burying his business. Why it’s important to be excited about what you’re doing. Why he said he was throwing away good time, good energy, and money into the project and how it kept dragging him down. How it’s hard for an entrepreneur to face the facts. What Jon means when he said, “I want to scratch of my own itch.” Why you have to default to “No,” rather than default to “Yes.” Why Jon is turning down business opportunities he never thought he’d be offered. How he came up with his next business idea and how he’s taking action on it now. Jon also announced his next big project that is planned to go live in June. Which I think is a very cool idea.

Don't tell Jon Haws that he doesn't own a tech company.  Even though he currently spends his days pushing lawn mowers and leading a crew of landscapers, Jon has embraced the internet and so much more to market and run his business. In fact, if you ask him about his business, the fact that he cuts grass may never come up.  Instead you'll get an earful about long tail keywords, niche sites, subscription based business, auto-billing, lead generation, and more. Because Jon has been able to think of his company as a tech business, he's been able to build it to over $70k in revenue in less than 6 months! Yes, Jon happens to be my cousin (what up cuz!); which is how I got the scoop on his fascinating story.  Not only is his experience very interesting to businesses of all kinds, but the priciples he discusses can REALLY help you in your marketing efforts. Rather than go over his entire story, please listen to the podcast below!  Here are just some of the topics covered: Why Jon put nursing school on hold to start a landscaping business. How Jon got his first few customers without a crew, equipment, and living 1500 miles away. (A true lean start-up!) Why Jon had to write a business plan and executive summaries for his wife before leaving school. How niche sites and long tail keywords bring in 40% of his business. The importance of understanding the life-time value of a customer. How these online marketing tactics can be applied to any business (and local service businesses in particular). How average monthly billing, additional services, and "passive" tactics are all part of Jon's plan for business growth.

This is Jon Reed's "roaming podcast" from SAP TechEd '07, Day 4. Get Jon's unscripted reactions to the last full day of TechEd '07, including key info on SAP skills trends, becoming a Business Process Expert, and Jon's conference wrap. In this podcast, Jon ties together the themes he covered throughout SAP TechEd '07. Recorded right on the spot in conference rooms and hotel lobbies, Jon's TechEd podcast series puts the technology trends of TechEd '07 in the context of the skills SAP professionals will need to succeed. For the Day 4 podcast, Jon breaks down his "instant reactions" to technical themes such as eSOA, mashups, Web 2.0, BI, and becoming a Business Process Expert, and he comments on the SAP skills gap in these areas and how they will be filled. Topics in this part of the podcast include: - Which SAP skills sets are becoming commoditized and what the skills growth areas are. - A view of the "SAP skills of the future" but also a consideration of the skills needs of the present, and how SAP consultants should balance the two. - Why Jon is changing his stance from consultants needing to have an 80/20 technical-functional mix (one way or the other) to a 50/50 skills mix, which Jon thinks might be the ideal in the future. - Jon's reflections on the workshop on "Becoming a Business Process Expert" (BPE) and the tools that technical and functional consultants can pursue to becoming a BPE. - Jon explains why he divides SAP customers into three distinct groups and what he sees as the project priorities of each group - The different versions of NetWeaver that are coming out, and the conflicting information that SAP representatives gave Jon at TechEd about when certain releases and features were becoming available. Jon talks about the pending release of NetWeaver 7.1, and the questions about when SAP PI (Process Integration), Enterprise Services Repository (ESR), and NetWeaver CE (Composition Environment). - Jon covers why ABAP is not dead, and talks about the different conversations he had with folks from SAP Labs about how ABAP fits into SAP's NetWeaver plans. Jon gives his take on why ABAP is still part of SAP's plans, based on facts such as: the ABAP Workbench is still part of NetWeaver, that the PI component is partially built on ABAP, and that while the CE does not have ABAP, there are many ABAP-related tools still supported in NetWeaver, such as WebDynpro for ABAP and MDM for ABAP. - Jon talks about the different SAP modeling tools that are going to change the nature of SAP development and give business users a greater opportunity to get involved in development using visual modeling tools like Visual Composer, Aris for NetWeaver, and the upcoming SAP Eclipse Development tool. Jon talks about why he thinks this new generation of modeling tools is a big deal, and finally gives some teeth to the "extend the enterprise" ERP movement which actually began in the late '90s, but did not have the technical capabilities to really support it. - Jon wraps his four part podcast series on TechEd with a review of the conference as a whole and the bottom line implications for SAP professionals.
