The latest episode of the Academy features Dom Faussette from Leaders 4 Leaders.
With over a decade of leadership training, interview coaching, speaking, and most importantly, real-world, in-the-trenches business experience with 5 Fortune 500 companies, his view is radically different.
Unlike many speakers/coaches, Dom Faussette extracts the unidentified natural leadership ability you currently possess and builds upon your platform. Dom appreciates, and shares with listeners, that leadership is a moment-to-moment choice and not about title, tenure or position.
In this episode, we discuss how to become the leader of your life, why leadership starts with you, how influence is earned, living authentically, the power of integrity, why most people live dual lives, why chasing money is fleeting, why it always comes back to self-worth, being more curious and so much more.
You'll no doubt be fired up during this episode with our energy, enthusiasm and shared connection.

The latest episode of the Academy features a former professional athlete, actor and now thriving entrepreneur and owner of Alitura Naturals, Andy Hnilo.
Andy was involved in a major, life-threatening accident where he suffered facial scarring from the injuries he sustained in his accident, and as a result ended up formulating some of the purest and potent skincare products in the world.
His homemade formulas worked so well that he decided to start his company, Alitura, based on recipes he created and perfected for himself. Andy then set himself up by launching his business, partnering with Dave Asprey and sharing his passion with the world.
In this episode, we discuss the secret sauce of enthusiasm and passion, how to solve one problem for one person (many times yourself) and then getting started, the power of taking the next step instead of the big plan and so much more.

I believe both parts are crucial to growth: the big vision, but also having the framework for dictating your behaviors right now.
The purpose of the Quick Hit Episodes is to give you a 4-8 minute nugget of wisdom, inspirational, a lesson and combine it with a practical action step so you can finish your weaken absolute fire!

The latest Academy episode features Kevin Stimpson. Kevin is the Founder of Strive & Grind, a lifestyle brand that empowers the dreamers and go-getters to unleash their inner greatness.
He is very passionate about entrepreneurship and works to educate, motivate, and inspire the new generation of entrepreneurs to create lifestyles full of experiences and purpose.
I was intrigued by Kevin's message with his authenticity, consistency, and ability to create content that makes sense for anyone -- whether you're an entrepreneur, working for someone else or anything in between.
During this episode we discuss the value of being different, how to stand out in a crowded marketplace, falling in love with the process, developing unbreakable beliefs, Kevin's worst entrepreneurial moments, going "all in" and the #1 dream killer of most visionaries and so much more.
