Word Warrior!

At the age of 17, James Aspey was diagnosed with leukaemia and given six weeks to live. Over the next 3 years, he fought to survive, which he did. He emerged from that battle with a new appreciation of life and a personal understanding of suffering. During his treatment he'd gained 23kg and after being given the all clear he began, with the help of a trainer to get his weight and fitness back on track. Inspired by the help he'd got James became a personal trainer too. It was whilst on a cruise ship working as a PT that James met a man that would completely change the path of his life. He began to question some of the things he'd always believed about food and health and embarked on a journey that would lead him first to giving up eating animals, then to giving up his voice for animals and finally, to what he does today, speaking all over the world about animals and veganism. His words are visceral and provocative, his message is hard to hear...but more and more people are listening, and that's why I asked James to come on the show. If you want to get some lessons from a master speaker, with a heartfelt message that is influencing people across the globe to make a major shift in their life and beliefs...then listen to this show...but be warned... at times you may find what James says disturbing and challenging. What we talk about: What James found out that changed the course of his life. Why we should care about what we eat. The benefits of a vegan diet. How James coped having a year without uttering a word. Why it's important for speakers to focus on understanding and addressing potential objections and how James does it. Why James believes education is the best way to influence people and how he does it. How James tailors his message for different audiences Why we sometimes need to shock to create change How being Vegan can help you grow as a communicator Why Tofu is one of the most underrated foods of all time! Why humour is so powerful, especially when your message is serious! How James puts his talks together, for maximum attention and impact. What James considers to be the most important point of his speeches. James' secret to becoming a great speaker. James' secret to business success.

There are so many ways, using words, on how you can express what your ideas, your feelings, etc., but the perfect one to convey it to your target audience requires some skill and practice. In this episode of the Invest In You Podcast, Fredrik and Ivan interviews Erik Deckers, the owner and President of Pro Blog Service, to talk about writing, blogging, and producing content. Erik is a professional writer and has been blogging since the ‘90s. He’s got some tips prepared today regarding writing, especially if you want to improve your online presence through your social media accounts. He also sheds a light on plagiarism and repurposing one’s content. Sharing your experience, stories, and expertise to other people is the best way on how to position yourself in your industry. Discover how to write your first content, today.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Writing has always been part of his life. When he was in college, he was part of the school newspaper. And now, it’s not just his passion, it’s the very core profession. Ghost-writing is an emerging niche right now in the writing industry. For some, they get list down as the co-author, but for most, they don’t any credits at all. There are so many things that you should be wary of when producing your own content, like plagiarism. Writing his book, Brading Yourself, has helped him share his ideas, improve his craft and meet new people. It’s now the norm for teenagers to find a job, not just to support their lifestyle, but to also explore and know what they’re capabilities are. Anyone can start as early as they want to achieve financial freedom. Erik’s advice on writing a book (i.e. non-fiction): Create an outline. Try posting a chapter online and study the feedback. Stick to your deadlines. Schedule your writing time as much as possible. How to focus on writing? Remove all distractions. For Erik, it’s social media. So, a 30-minute writing prompt becomes a 2-hour job when he gets distracted, so he fights the urges.
