Have you thought about what your days will look like when you finish homeschooling? As my daughter was progressing through high school, I started thinking about what the empty nest years might look like. I'll be honest and say that I'm looking forward to them! It's no secret around here. I will miss my daughters' daily presence, but there is also a lot I'm looking forward to about them both graduating and moving out. It will mean more independence and freedom for all of us. We have graduated one daughter; the other is in high school. We are not fully empty nesting yet, but we have changed our family dynamics from a family of four to having an only child for most of the week, and she is a busy little bee with activities and friends. As we moved into this stage, I had thoughts about what the days would look like and how things would be. I was wrong about several of them. In this episode, I'm sharing three of the myths I believed about launching our children after homeschooling so you can have realistic expectations of what is ahead.

Someone once reacted to a suggestion to reach out to me by saying, "Oh, yeah, but he's Cliff, freaking Ravenscraft." This reaction, while amusing, brings to the surface an essential truth about journeys to success. It's easy to forget that there was a time when I was just Cliff, an ordinary individual unknown to the world. This transition from obscurity to recognition is a journey filled with learning, growth, and the realization that everyone starts somewhere. Keeping this in mind, let's delve into some critical takeaways from this episode, highlighting how you can shape your path to becoming a thought leader through authentic and passionate content creation. Here are a few key takeaways from this episode: Align Content with Mission and Passion: It's crucial to align your content creation with your true passion, mission, purpose, and calling. This approach enables a deeper connection with the audience. I started without much knowledge about content creation but progressed by aligning my efforts with my passion. Intentional Content for a Select Audience: Crafting content that is very intentional and targeted towards a select audience can help establish a professional reputation. This approach ensures that the content resonates deeply with the intended audience and reflects the creator's expertise and offerings. Note: The more targeted you get with your content, the less appealing it will be to the "broader audience." Invest in Your Passions and Interests: Giving yourself permission to invest time and resources into your passions and interests can lead to content that is genuine and engaging. This investment not only enriches the content but also helps in personal growth and the realization of dreams. Commitment to Quality: This isn't for everyone. However, a few years ago, I made the decision that every piece of content should be "inspired" and of high quality. I've chosen that I will not produced an episode, for this podcast, that is not a '10 out of 10' in quality. This standard ensures that the content is always valuable and worth the "intended audience's" time. Authenticity and Encouragement: Success in building a following and being a thought leader can be attributed to being authentic and uplifting. Sharing personal stories and encouraging others through your content can create a strong connection with the audience and inspire them, as illustrated by the experience of a follower who attributed his success to influence of the content that I created over the years.

I have listeners from all walks of life, all backgrounds, and all ages and stages of life. However, if I had to pick one category of listener that probably represents the largest chunk of my audience, it's writers in the 40-60-year-old age range. We all know that profound changes can happen during this phase of life, the biggest of which is that your kids leave home and you become what's known as an “empty nester.” When the kids are no longer at home, everything about your family life changes. I'm going through this to some degree right now since my son, Ash, is 19. He's been out of high school a year and still lives at home, but will probably be moving out in the not-too-distant future. If this phase of life describes you, or if it describes someone you're close to, you'll relate very much to our guest today. Her name is Ruthie Gray and she's been a guest here on the podcast before, talking about Instagram marketing. However, Ruthie recently released a new book called Empty Next Awakening: Weaving the Threads of Your Passions into Purpose. The book is really wonderful and is a real gift to anyone in this stage of life, men or women. Ruthie Gray is a wife, grandmother, empty nester, and marketing coach for Christian female entrepreneurs, specializing in Instagram and newsletter strategy. Her hobbies include Florida beach walks, RV-ing with her hubby, and voraciously reading historical fiction. She is also the founder of the Authentic Online Marketing School and Insider Mentorship, and podcasts at Authentic Online Marketing. She's getting ready to launch her Authentic Online Marketing School, which can learn more about when you visit https://authenticonlinemarketing.com. In this conversation, Ruthie and I talk about the challenges of the empty nest phase of life, why you can still have a business even if you have a ministry, her book writing and publishing process, and much more. If you're considering writing a book, I think you'll be very encouraged by Ruthie's writing experience. * * * Today's episode is sponsored by Vellum, the go-to book formatting software for indie authors who care about creating beautiful ebooks and print books.

Welcome to our new podcast series entitled ‘Perseverance’. It seems to me that is what we are all going to have to focus on as we head into 2021. And we are starting at a great place, ‘Persevere with Your Passions’. We are all going to need to do this and to inspire and encourage us is cookery author, Skye McAlpine. I have often admired Skye’s wonderful kitchen creations, marvelling at how she manages to turn something quite simple into a feast. Whether in Venice or London, lunch in a heatwave or supper on a chilly winter’s night, Skye makes me want to cook what she easts. And, importantly, makes it seems actually possible that I might attempt it and not end up sweating and swearing in the kitchen while friends chat and drink without me. Good ingredients, good plates and good friends seem to be the name of the game. A brilliant recipe if ever there was one. We talk about where Skye’s passion for food began, how she developed that passion into a career, her latest book ‘A Table for Friends’, how she continues to nurture her love of food and hospitality and how we can all continue to persevere with our own passions.

December 3 is an important day for me. It’s the first time in more than 15 years that I’ve launched a book with a major publisher. The Extremely Busy Woman’s Guide to Self-Care is my tribute to all I learned about self-care in the years following my daughter Teal’s death in 2012. It’s part workbook, part guide, part resource listing that has everything you could ever need about self-care. I also include some really wonderful quotes about self-care from Teal’s journal. I first became aware of Valerie Young’s work in … 2001? I had published a book about creativity and motivation then (How Much Joy Can You Stand?), and her work was a SUPER perfect fit for all that I discussed. We became colleagues and have stayed in touch off and on since then. If you’ve never listened to Valerie Young speak, she’s brilliant on the subject of Imposter Syndrome. Her voice is nothing less than an inspirational call to arms for all of us scared women to link arms and believe in ourselves again. Among other things, I learned: How the Imposter Syndrome work came to be Hallmarks of Imposter Syndrome How we get this way and what the effects are, long-term The correlation between anxiety and Imposter Syndrome, and addictions, too Sabotaging behaviors sourced in Imposter Syndrome What can we do about it Useful reframes for Imposter Syndrome moments It’s a fabulous conversation— don’t miss it! RESOURCES Suzanne’s new book: The Extremely Busy Woman’s Guide to Self-Care The Secret Thoughts of Successful Women: Why Capable Women Suffer From the Imposter Syndrome and How to Thrive In Spite of It Being Realistic is Killing Your Dreams: 7 Lessons for Living Life on Purpose, Working at What You Love, and Following Your Own Road  It’s Never Too Late to Find Your Calling: A Handbook to Help You Find Your Passion – and Get a Life  There’s Got to Be More to Life Than This! 10 Steps to Escaping the Job World and Creating the Life You Really Want Personal Planner  TED TALK Betty Rollins essay in Hers, The New York Times, 1981 MORE ABOUT VALERIE Valerie Young developed The Imposter Syndrome work while a graduate student at University of Massachusetts, Amherst. Since then it has become a worldwide phenomenon. She has spoken on stages extensively about this, including TedNYC. Valerie is also widely recognized as a thought-leader on thinking “outside the job box.” In 1995 she became the founder and Dreamer in Residence at Changing Course — an online resource for people who want to make a living doing what they love without a job. Today over 24,000 people subscribe to the Changing Course Newsletter. She created the first and only training program that teaches people how to serve the career change needs of people who want to be self-employed. Over 350 people from 19 countries have trained with Valerie to become a licensed Profiting from Your Passions® coach.

In 2008, he founded the EcSell Institute to fill a void he witnessed and personally experienced in the sales leadership Favorite Success Quote “The constant facade of order hides the wilderness that is craving to seek out and teach us that life wasn’t created to be what we think it is. Beyond words we must experience the wilderness to be taught what otherwise cannot be known.” ~Dr. Serene Jones Key Points 1. We Only Grow in a State of Discomfort  We live in an age of unprecedented comfort. Things are easier today in 2017 (or whenever you are reading this) than they have ever been before. If we get hot, we turn up the AC. If we get bored, we open up YouTube. If we are hungry, we order a pizza. Life is too darn easy! And with this ease, has come a disease that is plaguing society. The disease of stagnation. The more comfortable you become, the less drive and ambition you have to grow, create, and build a better life for yourself. The more comfortable you become, the easier it is to relegate your dreams, desires, and aspirations to the realm of “someday”. Unless you are facing massive discomfort in your life, then odds are, you are slowly dying. True growth, real, visceral growth is always predicated by discomfort. If you are living a mediocre life and want to break free to achieve levels of success and happiness that you have been searching for for so long, then you must get uncomfortable. It’s as simple as that. It’s not pretty and it’s not easy… but it is the truth. You need to actively seek out discomfort in your career, your personal growth, and your physical health. If your job isn’t inspiring you, then find ways that you can take on new and uncomfortable responsibilities or quit. If you are not growing as a man and becoming stronger and more grounded each and every day, then find mentors and friends inspire you to level up your game and quit playing it small. If you are not constantly pushing the limits of your body and breaking through to new feats of strength, speed, and agility, then get your butt in the gym today and start sculpting yourself into a stronger man. Gentlemen, if you are not growing you are dying. It’s time to cut the crap and start living life. And it all starts by stepping outside what is easy and embracing discomfort. 2. Focus on Yourself First If you have ever been on an airplane, then you are well aware of the boring (and often ignored) safety briefings at the beginning of each flight. But if you pay special attention during those briefings you will notice something interesting. The flight attendants will always tell you that, in the event of a crash, you need to put the oxygen mask on yourself first before helping anyone around you, including your children. And while this might sound selfish and downright barbaric to some of you, it comes with good reason. If you black out on during the crash while trying to help someone else, then what have you accomplished? You have likely killed yourself and sealed the other person’s fate as well. And this lesson is applicable in all areas of life. If you are not taking care of yourself, if you are not taking the time to grow yourself, mentally, spiritually, and professionally, then what use do you have to the rest of the world? If you are so strung out on projects and problems that you can’t think straight and need a double shot of espresso and a line of cocaine just to function, do you really think that you will be able to be the man that you woman needs you to be? That your family needs you to be? That your friends need you to be? No! Absolute selflessness is the ultimate selfishness. It is only by taking care of yourself first that you can truly serve others. If you want to truly serve your team, your loved ones, and your friends, then start by serving yourself. Take time in solitude each day to meditate and be alone with your thoughts. Take care of your health. Take whatever time and resources are necessary to ensure that you can show up fully charged and alive. Because when you are can unleash yourself on the world with power and energy, that’s when you can serve others and make the biggest impact. 3. Life Happens for You Not to You Each and every day you have a choice. You can choose to believe that the circumstances and the events in your life are happening to you. Or you can choose to believe that they are happening for you. When you believe that life happens to you, you disempower yourself, rob your life of meaning and purpose, and will get lost in the downward spiral of negativity. But when you can expand your mind and embrace the belief that life is happening for you, you will begin to see lessons and opportunities where previously, there were only obstacles. If Bill hadn’t been fired from his job, I would not be writing this article and would not have had the pleasure of interviewing him. If I hadn’t quit corporate and endured the pain of sleeping on my brother’s couch and going broke to build this business, then I wouldn’t have been privileged to have the business and the impact that I have today. Whatever situation you are facing in your life, whatever struggle you don’t believe you can overcome, choose to reframe it and see it as a gift from the universe. See your pain as an opportunity to grow and become the man that you need to be so that you can truly achieve greatness when the time comes. 4.Realize that the Journey Never Ends As you are reading or listening to this talk about discomfort, many of you might be thinking “When does this end? When can I sit back and relax and just enjoy all the comforts and ease life has to offer?” The honest answer? When you are dead. You see, life is a journey. And while you are on that journey, you are either growing or dying. It doesn’t matter how old you are, how accomplished you are, or how much you have achieved, in every moment you can either choose growth or death. If you look at the statistics you will see that a large number of retirees die shortly after they leave their jobs, businesses, and careers behind. And this isn’t because of old age. It’s because they were no longer growing. Because they no longer had a deeper purpose driving their lives. So yes, you can embrace comfort and just coast through life. Just be prepared for decades of unfulfilling drudgery and overwhelming emptiness. However, if you are listening to this podcast, if you are actively seeking out information that will help you grow to become the man you were born to be, then I would guess that you have no interest in coasting. And if this is true, then you need to embrace discomfort. Embrace the fact that until the day you die, you will never arrive, you will never be done, and the journey will never end. Life is nothing more than a continual set of problems for which you are tasked to find the solution. If you do it right, these problems will grow in size and magnitude as you grow. But they will never end. Embrace the journey and get excited about discomfort. 5. Focus on Your Passions  There has never been a time in human history where it was easier or more important to find and follow your passion. With the power of the internet, you have the opportunity and the responsibility to find what you love and unleash it on the world. It’s time to start living your life and stop living someone else’s. Find what you love doing and go do that! Stop squandering your time pursuing dreams and goals set by other people and start doing what you were meant to do. If you get nothing else from this interview, get this. You are meant to do so much more than you can imagine. But to do this, you must embrace discomfort and follow your passions no matter what the cost. Period.

Today Nicholas brings on comedian and businessman, Tommy Berretz. Tommy was not only BDB Live EMCE last year, but he will also be a speaker at BDB Live 2.0. Tommy has built,  exited, and sold at a profit, a multi seven figure business, now helping other people do the same thing. Among the many other things Tommy has done, he’s also made it a priority to pursue his passions, like the comedic arts and building self-running businesses as an entrepreneur!     Time Stamped: [ 02:49 ] Building Businesses that are Self Sufficient. [ 05:00 ] Pursuing Your Passions. [ 08:06 ] Exiting and Sell a Business. [ 12:00 ] Practical Steps to Have More Success. [ 14:30 ] Investing in Coaches. [ 20:15 ] Vision. [ 23:15 ] Progressing in Your Passions. [ 30:15 ] Do What You Want.   Takeaways: A lot of people close to you are going to think that pursuing your personal passions is illogical. Don’t stop chasing your dreams to live a “practical” life. Instead use what is in your arsenal, skill sets you’ve already cultivated and trades you’ve learned to help you get ahead and then pursue your dreams. At some point you have to ask yourself, “If i had to do what I am currently doing for the rest of my life would I be disappointed and upset, or dissatisfied with the rest of my life?” If the answer is anywhere near yes, you should take a look at and evaluate the direction you are heading in your current job, career, business, etc. In order to find a way to pursue the things that you are actually passionate about. Don’t let your fear hold you back, stop listening to other people and start listening to yourself and trusting your inner voice. In anything you want to do in life, you want to emulate the best, and the best, in any industry, invest in coaches. A truly good coach is there to push you past you're potential, even when you don’t think you can do it. You coach is there to tell you the things you need to do to get ahead and to reinforce your training day in and day out. You need to have a coach, mentor, mastermind group to provide you with support. Remember, as coach John Wooden says, “The Best Time to Learn is When You Think You Know It All.” Use what you know now to get what you want. Many people work for other businesses and they could be very successful entrepreneurs. They are instead settling for stability in a job that they don’t like, don’t want to grow with, and don’t have a vision for. As long as you are growing the skills you have, even if you aren't using them in your dream job right now, you can use them to help make a profit that can later fund your exit to make a profit doing your dream job is.        Resources: BDB Live.
