Everything is fuel. This is what today's 5 Minute Episode with Lisa Nichols is all about —the hard moments, the critics, the moments of questioning:

This is your fuel.

Remember: what you're going through right now will one day become a story other's won't be able to not read.

This is your fuel, and it's time to never look back.

The latest Academy guest is none other than Brian Scudamore —entrepreneur, visionary and owner of 1-800-GOT-JUNK. Brian’s story of starting out with one truck and $700 to build a quarter billion empire (billion with a b) is nothing short of inspiring.

What I love about Brian’s message is how he’s able to blend the principles of mindset, principles and living your best life into a business that most wouldn’t consider “sexy” or “purpose driven.”

And that’s perfect, because it details a point I’ve made before: you and I can live with purpose, even if the deliverable to the marketplace isn’t our actual purpose.

During this riveting, fun and passionate conversation, you’re going to learn how Brian went from one idea, $700 and one truck to build an empire, how he had to fire 11 employees in one shot by trusting his gut —and so much more, including:

  • Why success is all about the long game
  • How to tap into the core purpose of your business
  • The power of making meaning, not money
  • Why reflection is as important as execution
  • Why Brian fired his entire staff in one shot
  • How to make tough, yet powerful decisions
  • Why finding the right people is everything
  • How to stay true to your core purpose and mission
  • Why the comparison game will bring you down
  • Crafting a powerful vision without getting lost on the "how"
  • How to step into pure possibility of your future

...and so much more designed to help you get clear on your life and business and create the income, impact and influence you're here for.

“Make meaning, not money.” - Brian Scudamore

“The greatest wealth has been the intellectual wealth, love and happiness.” - Brian Scudamore

"My private office became a hiding spot, because I didn't enjoy working with my people." - Brian Scudamore

Transformation is more about letting go —and less about adding more stuff on an overwhelmed foundation. Why? Because when you and I let go, we create space to tap into who we really are.

From this, comes clarity, confidence, capability and so much more...to make our dreams come true.

On the latest Quick Hit, I share the 5 Things To Let Go Of This Year, in order to make this year an undeniable success.

I'd love to hear your personal feedback on this episode and what you're committed to letting go of.

Srini Rao is the host of the Unmistakable Creative podcast where he’s interviewed 600+ creatives, entrepreneurs, thought leaders and people from all walks of life as well as the author of the Wall Street Journal bestseller The Art of Being Unmistakable, and An Audience of One: Reclaiming Creativity for Its Own Sake.

I’ve followed his work for years, and love how committed he is to his craft as an interviewer, writer and all around creative. It was a pleasure to have him on the show about his life's journey, feeling like he never fit in and how he built a creative media platform from scratch.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • The duality of defining our success
  • Measuring your success for fulfillment
  • Why finding clarity means getting uncomfortable
  • How to know you’re on the wrong trajectory
  • What to do when you find what lights you up
  • Why you need to have more patience in your pursuit
  • How to find your passion by trying everything once
  • Why passion follows engagement in our lives
  • How to escape the matrix of society’s checkboxes
  • The power of presence and flow in life and business
  • Why presence increases performance at least 5X
  • Why questioning social programming is crucial 
  • Leaning into your crisis and pain for massive growth
  • Why the myth of being discovered will kill your dreams

...and so much more in a conversation designed to shift you with clarity, purpose and perspective.

“Clarity comes from action, it’s a process of removing layers, labels and masks.” 

“To get clarity, you have to be willing to get uncomfortable and deal with your baggage.”

“Passion comes from engagement.”

“Everything you accept as a truth is nothing more than a collective agreement.”

"Everybody is creative."
