What would you do if an inner voice instructed you to create a business that seemed way outside your expertise? Here’s the story of a woman who chose to follow that inner guidance, and the incredible rewards it brought her.

It all started with a simple message that popped into Melinda Cohan’s head while she was riding on the freeway.

Then came the sentence she spontaneously wrote on a restaurant napkin.

Melinda didn’t know exactly what it meant, and she didn’t have a business plan.

But she’d found her mission—and the faith and strength to make it happen.

A few years back, at a small comedy club in Oakland, a young comic, Brad Isaac, found himself face to face with the brilliant Jerry Seinfeld.  Not wanting to miss the opportunity of a lifetime, the young comic asked Jerry, “What tips do you have for me so that I can be successful as a professional comedian?”  His answer blew me away…

In this episode, I’m going to share with you the simple, straightforward advice that Jerry gave this young comic. And it’s something so simple you can use it starting today.

For most people, their past hurts turn into baggage.  That baggage, in turn, weighs them down and slows them down on their pathway to greater success.

What if I told you that out of all your past hurts there is a core wound that is your roadmap of how you can help the world in your own unique way?

Are you ready to hear its message?

Every human being has a core wound.  And from that core wound, you have developed beliefs and habits that hold you back from having the business (and life you want).

In today’s podversation, Jeffrey Van Dyk, a leader in the conscious entrepreneur movement, reveals how to get to know your wound and discover what your entire life has been preparing you to do.

You’ll see why tapping into the wisdom of your core wound gives you a huge advantage as an entrepreneur and makes your success practically guaranteed!

Some businesses charge premium prices and have customers clamoring. Others charge very little and barely attract any customers at all. What’s the deal?

Way too many entrepreneurs dream of achieving the status and success of Apple, but they use strategies more like Radio Shack.

Today’s episode will help you avoid being one of THOSE business owners.

I’m going to share three top approaches to developing a high-end, much-in-demand service or product—so you can charge what you want, and get it.

Building your business triggers is an instinctual drive in you called the “survival response.” How well you understand it can determine what happens to your business, your health, and your happiness.

As an entrepreneur, a certain amount of stress is an unavoidable part of your journey.

But my guest today, Irene Lyon, says that burnout, anxiety, depression, and a host of other issues rampant among entrepreneurs are definitely NOT unavoidable.

They are the result of your survival response kicking up old emotional wounds (that practically every human being has), which are still lodged in your nervous system.

Today’s podversation is a crash course in releasing that energy-sucking stress so you can start showing up in your business and your life with more clarity and positive power than you ever thought possible!

Where does your ability to succeed in business come from? Most entrepreneurs are looking for it in exactly the wrong place. Are you?

Building a great business takes talent, knowledge, and confidence.

And when a lot of people hear that, they get discouraged.

They either feel like giving up…

Or, they madly hit the books, and maybe enroll in some business courses.

But both of these common reactions practically guarantee you WON’T succeed in business (if you ever even start).

There’s only one approach that virtually guarantees you WILL develop all the skills you need to reach your full potential as an entrepreneur.

You just have to forget everything you’ve come to believe about learning…

And try what I’m suggesting in today’s episode.
