What would happen if you went all in?

 

I made a new friend in the last year who has such a powerful energy and makes whoever he’s with feel so good, I have become a fan. I love his restaurants and I love his value of going all in on what he’s focused on.

From selling his first self-built business at the age of 19, Michael has made one thing clear – “a good business only scales or sells.” Over the past decade, this 39-year-old industry disruptor has built a world-class team and honed skills in all aspects of experiential brand and concept creation, culture building and high-performance operations from start-up to multi-million-dollar enterprises. Michael’s dedication to “Championing others to their Fullest Potential” is evident having created more than 2500 jobs, 7 viable brands and opening more than 65 restaurants, Michael has a gift for influencing others and creating one of a kind brands. National award-winning concepts under TMG’S crest have changed the course of the restaurant industry.

This conversation is a powerful insight into what happens when you go all in on your business, your relationships, and your life.

“I found myself making the most money I’d ever made in my life, being the most alone.”

Podcast: EP 67 Gratitude Is a Game Changer

Podcast: EP 67 Gratitude Is a Game Changer

by | Oct 26, 2021 | Podcast, Success

It’s the 10 year anniversary of my gratitude series.

 

Ten years ago, I started hosting a free interview series every November about gratitude and generosity. I call those two the super g’s because I think they have the power to bring what we want into our lives. This year I’m so excited to be hosting the series for the tenth time that I’m actually doing 10 interviews throughout the month. 

In this episode, I share the story of why I started the Gratitude Series, when I almost quit doing it, and how to practice daily gratitude to bring in all the power it holds. I hope you join me for this year’s gratitude series. It will be an amazing experience, as always.

“To live in gratitude is to live in power.” – Richard Paul Evans

Podcast: EP 64 Your Harvest is Coming

Podcast: EP 64 Your Harvest is Coming

by | Oct 1, 2021 | Podcast, Success

The season of harvest has a lot to teach us.

 

I am a huge fan of autumn, so this time of year has me feeling all the feels. But I also love this season because it reminds me of one of the fundamental truths in sales: your harvest cannot be prevented. If you’ve been doing the work and showing up, your harvest is coming.

In this episode, I share some of my favorite metaphors and stories around this principle. I know it’s true, and I’m here to remind you to keep going — because your harvest is not far off.

“Make the offering again and again and again.”

Podcast: EP 61 Breaking Through with James Lawrence

Podcast: EP 61 Breaking Through with James Lawrence

by | Sep 7, 2021 | Podcast, Success

When is the last time you did something that scared you?

 

You probably already know the story of the Iron Cowboy. He is a record-breaking endurance athlete that I met years ago when we spoke at the same event. He is an amazing inspiration around breaking through any barrier you are facing. So I was so excited to have him on the podcast after he completed an incredible feat this year — completing 100 consecutive full-length triathlons in 100 days.

James Lawrence is an athlete, speaker, businessman, and father. He lives with his wife, Sunny, and their five children in Utah. After breaking several Guinness World Records, James wondered if he had truly found his mental and physical limits. He knew there was more. Experience firsthand the remarkable journey of James Lawrence and his family.

Repeatedly mocked for choosing a goal so big, James took on the challenge of doing 50 long distance triathlons, in 50 consecutive days, through all 50 US States. His journey will make you laugh, cry and possibly squirm in your seats in disbelief.

James shares with you the ups, the downs and the life lessons learned along the way. His story resonates with all, young and old. You won’t want to miss this tale of adventure as he ‘Redefines Impossible.’

This conversation is a powerful reminder that we can do the impossible. James shares his insights on the mindset that it takes and what happens when we break through what has held us back.

“If the goal isn’t big enough and doesn’t scare you, you’re not going to respect the preparation process.”
