She’s celebrating the launch of her new book, "Million Dollar Women: The Essential Guide for Female Entrepreneurs Who Want to Go Big,” which was just published on October 6, 2015. Julia is a self-proclaimed extrovert, but as you’ll hear through our conversation, she has wisdom that’s valuable to introverts when it comes to building a successful business and “going big” on your own terms, according to your own definition of “big.” And for the men listening to this, you’ll find her advice valuable, too!

Ep87: Matt Curry Shares the Superpowers of ADD Entrepreneurs Sep 11, 2015

Show notes

I don’t want to assume that everyone listening to this podcast is an introvert, but I’m probably safe in guessing that most of you are. And if you are an introvert, you know something about feeling on the edges of things. Of not being understood, of feeling out of step with the people around you, or even sometimes feeling like you wish you weren’t an introvert.

Matt Curry understands this idea of feeling like he's on the edge of things, but with a twist: He's has a condition known as Attention Deficit Disorder, or ADD. And he's found a way to leverage what others often view as a liability.

Matt is a serial entrepreneur and WSJ Best Selling author of "The ADD Entrepreneur." He built Curry’s Auto Service into a 10-location chain, servicing almost 5,000 cars per month, and was voted the “Top Shop” in North America as voted by MotorAge Magazine, as well as earned recognition as an INC 5000 for Fastest Growing Companies for three consecutive years. Matt is Founder of The Hybrid Shop, a company dedicated to training the automotive aftermarket in hybrid and electric vehicle technology.

Ep86: Sarah Jones Shares Secrets to Connecting in Love and Life Sep 03, 2015

Show notes

Sometimes, it’s good to mix a business with a little pleasure, and today’s guest is the perfect person to help us do that. We’re going to be talking about the introvert superpowers that we can tap into in order to form relationships, whether they’re romantic, platonic or professional.

While we often focus on various aspects of entrepreneurship in this podcast, I think it’s also important to address the more personal side of being an introvert. After all, how we show up in life is how we show up for our business. And how we form relationships is important whether we’re at work or at home. What I find interesting about my conversation with Sarah Jones is how often I notice the overlap between looking for love and networking, prospecting, or connecting with clients. And while Sarah’s focus is on introverted men, what she shares definitely offers insights for introverted women.

Sarah Jones founded Introverted Alpha to help smart introverted men attract women naturally. She’s been featured by Cosmo, Business Insider, The Good Men Project, YourTango, MSN, LifeHack, and more.
