Why Most Entrepreneurs Never Experience Freedom – With Mel Abraham

On the face of it, Mel Abraham was doing everything right… Business was great… He was flying all over the country… Money rolling in… But then his 5-year-old son handed him a drawing… … and Mel realized he was screwing up the one thing that actually mattered. As entrepreneurs, we're quick to measure our wealth in dollars. But money alone can't give you freedom. So in this episode, we sat down with Mel to talk about what actually does. We get into how you can create true freedom… so your l...

Unlocking Your Authentic Abundance – With Michael Maidens

Abundance is one thing… but tapping into your authentic abundance is something else. Maybe you've felt the difference – you meet someone who seems to have it all… but something feels "off"? They don't feel aligned… or truly happy. It's like they're wearing a version of success that doesn't quite fit. This is the abundance trap no one warns you about. You can have a driveway full of Ferraris and a fat bank account. But if it doesn't feel good when the lights go off, that's not real abundance...

Who You Spend Time With Shapes Your Success (Here's Why)

Strategies and tactics often get the spotlight. But if most successful entrepreneurs were honest about what really moved the needle for them, it probably wouldn't be a 5-step plan… … it would be a community. "You become the average of the five people you spend the most time with" has become a bit of a cliche. But you only have to spend five minutes in a "wrong" room to realize how true it is. In this clip from Dare to Launch, we're talking all things community with Michael Walker… including w...

So if you've ever thought… "I have an idea for an offer… but I don't have an audience or an email list. What should I do?" "I'm an introvert, what's the bes...

Stand Up Comedy Made Him A Better Copywriter (With Will Hamilton)

If you want to improve your writing skills, you might consider signing up for a copywriting course. But Will Hamilton went a different route… He took comedy classes on Zoom… from a guy who used to write for Jay Leno. And in this clip from Dare to Launch, Will explains why it's the best thing he's ever done for his copywriting. It's not about writing jokes or being funny though… If you've ever seen a comedian live, you'll know they're masters at creating and building tension, holding it, and ...

To Hire or Not to Hire? (With Mike Michalowicz)

One of the worst decisions I made early on in my business? Following this advice from a well-respected marketing guru: “Don’t hire anyone. Employees will make your life hell.” I trusted this person, so listening to them felt like the smart play. And while it did keep things simple in some respects, it also kept my business small – and way more stressful than it needed to be. When I eventually figured out that this was terrible advice (which took way longer than I’d like to admit), my busine...

Discover Your High-Ticket Offer, Hidden in Plain Sight

This is probably one of the most actionable episodes ever of Dare to Launch.

For More Sales, Make a Bold Offer

If you think you’re selling knowledge, think again… Knowledge is everywhere. And it’s free. Podcasts, YouTube, blogs… answers are just one Google search or ChatGPT conversation away. So what are we really selling? Our framework. Our approach. Our way of doing things. And while that might sound simple, it’s not easy… Because that’s where fear often kicks in. When someone says “no thanks” to your offer, it’s not just a simple “no”… … they’re saying “no” to your personal approach… your ideas…...

Behind The Scenes Of The Launch Masterclass: The Squirrel Cam Story - Launch Masterclass starts in 2 days!

I didn’t plan it. It just kinda happened… and then it became a “thing”. A few years back, I was doing a live session in my Launch Masterclass, when out of the corner of my eye, I saw it… Right next to my camera was a squirrel. And this thing is just going nuts. Now I’m live with thousands of people. So I’m doing everything I can to stay focused and not get distracted, but I can’t help it… … my eyes keep wandering over to this little guy scampering all over my deck. I knew I had to say som...

The Go-To Affiliate Strategy That Helps The Little Guys Outperform The Big Dogs

Affiliate promotions (where you promote someone else’s product to your list) can be one of the easiest, fastest, and most profitable launches you do. I’ve been on both sides – both promoting and having other people promote my launches – for literally decades now. And it’s no secret that I love these kinds of promotions. Done well – where you promote a proven offer that gets real results for your people – it’s a triple home run… 1. You make a lot of sales, without having to do all the hard wo...

There are moments when life just wallops you – when all you can see is fear, overwhelm, and uncertainty. So let’s get into what you can do when that happens… Because there is a way through those moments. And it doesn’t involve looking for silver linings or pretending everything’s fine.
