More About This Show

There are several speakers you’ll hear on this show, the first one is my man P.J. After attending his first Life on Fire event, he declared publicly he was going to quit his job by May 1st of 2015. He followed through on that declaration and in the 18 months since he has been on 30+ podcasts, speaks from the stage regularly and is now creating his first series of international events.

Today he shares how he has gone through a few iterations of his business and has learned how to lean into the fear of every change, evolution and experience along the way!

P.J.’s story illustrates that on the other side of fear is something greater and if you can take a step back to look at life from a new perspective then new opportunities will open up for you. Like he says on this episode, take a different perspective and you’ll take a different path.

You’ll also hear from Lakeisha, who is a natural singer and performer. She’s even the creator of our Life on Fire theme song and you’ll hear it on this show!

Lakeisha has been a hair and makeup artist by trade, but really wanted to become a singer and make her living as a musician. However she found herself feeling stuck in the “how” and kept questioning how she could make a living as a music artist. She couldn't let go of the past failures that were holding her back.

And then started coaching with Life on Fire in October of this year and by the time the event rolled around in early December she had secured $9k in contracts to sing! With support, hustle and vision she made her dream a reality and it’s only getting bigger.

Another inspirational story you’ll hear is from Calvin. Calvin went from knocking on doors and making $20k a year to being published in Entrepreneur magazine, being a guest on John Lee Dumas’ EO Fire podcast, publishing his first book, becoming debt-free and being paid to speak to 2000 people!

Calvin was another person who had to learn to stop worrying about the how, he finally realized that part of the journey was none of his business! He discovered it's all about making a decision and then doing everything to make that decision the right one.

Taking that approach freed him. He has learned one of the secrets of the most successful people in the world: they don't wonder or worry if they made the right decision or not, they make it the right decision and get on to making things happen. As Calvin says on this episode: Done is better than perfect!

You’ll also hear from Daniel about how he left his job, started selling his own products and earning $10k a month. He also shares that he has now learned to embrace his full potential and stop short-changing himself.

Mina has also made massive shifts in her business and created a much bigger vision for herself and her business.

And finally Tracy shares how she created her dream of Artc: an autism research and treatment center. You’ll hear how a big why pulled her beyond her fears, doubts and worries, and made Artc a reality today, complete with an amazing supportive community.

Tune in to hear those stories for yourself on episode 216 of Life on Fire.
