Going Boldly, Entertainment, Information, Inspiration, & Transformation for Entrepreneurs!

S2-E56 Jonathan Wright, AKA, Johnny Only is a singer-songwriter and entrepreneur from Upstate NY. He is currently known for his amazing kid’s shows that appeal to multiple generations. He was recently filmed for inclusion in an upcoming HBO special.

You may know of him connected to Baby Shark and his legal issues with Pink Fong. It seems that some thought the multimillion-dollar juggernaut, that is Pink Fong, was using a version of the song that was a little “too close” to the one John created.

Regardless of copyright battles, John is Going Boldly with multiple streams of income connected to his passions around performing, and providing education and inspiration for countless children, their parents, and grandparents too!

I am proud to call John a friend and especially proud of the work he does and the impact he has on families around the world.

S2-E53 Dave Clare, Constantly Reimagine to Create the “Next Normal”!

We are aware that, post-covid, we need to be ready for the “new normal” but what about the “next normal”? According to Dave Clare, business owners need to be constantly reimagining as we are thinking about our business.

He warns us of the “Paradox of Success- that what got us to today, will not get us to tomorrow.

Dave is a speaker, consultant, coach, and CEO of Circle

Leadership Global, plus the author of the book, Simplified: Leadership is simple. You lead people.

How?

Engage your employees in meaning-full work.

Empower people to make smarter decisions.

Inspire teams with a bigger picture of the world.

Evolve your organization by hacking culture and strategy.

In Dave’s own words:

“I was able to speak to thousands of leaders about why and

how to evolve themselves and their businesses to stay relevant in the hearts and minds of the people they choose to serve. My goal was always to bring humanity back into the workplace, [and to] ensure leaders treated their employees as humans with goals, dreams, and aspirations first, and [as] employees second. My desire is to create an evolution at work.”

“My conviction going forward is to:

• work with you to embrace the learning and apply it to productively transform your business.
• keep pushing you through your own barriers.
• push you to embrace that evolution is the natural state of your business.
• convinced you to fall deeper in love with why you and your business do what you do.
• show you the power of loving your clients.
• drive more epic thinking and epic results for you and your clients.
• hold you to account to be different and stand out and to blaze new trails.”

 In this episode, Dave talks about:      

• The 2 ways to reimagine your business 
• Purpose driven leadership     
• Characteristics of great leaders
• Knowing your customers’ customers      
• The Paradox of Success      
• From victim mode to victor mode      
• WD40      
• Being mistaken for Robert Downey Jr.

S1-E51 Don Schmincke Entrepreneurs are born with something unique.

Don believes, based on his research, that entrepreneurs are born with characteristics that cannot be taught. If this is true, is the popular movement encouraging people to take their passions and turn them into businesses a failed notion? Is entrepreneurism a result of something innate and unique or can anybody learn to be an entrepreneur?

What do you believe?

Listen to Don’s observations about learning from mistakes, ADHD, nature vs nurture, the reality of time and space and more.

Don Schmincke is an international speaker, and he advises CEOs and executive teams worldwide. His work has been recognized in national media such as The Wall Street Journal and USA Today.

Words from Don:

“When I left academia to research how leaders impact civilization, I was not prepared for the support and response I received. The journey began when entrepreneurs, CEOs, and business owners vented frustrations with the high failure-rates of management theories, experts, and programs.

Unaware of their world (I was pursuing the sciences at MIT), it was while teaching at Johns Hopkins University that the ideal laboratory emerged to explore why these failures happen and how to fix them.

I can't thank enough the anthropologists, neurologists, archaeologists, biologists, geneticists, and evolutionary psychologists whose published research and personal support gave me the needed footing to keep climbing.

Now, after working with over 7,000 CEOs, we have validated the protocols for success. Many CEOs find them "delightfully irreverent with blinding flashes beyond popular theories" and were pleased with the unexpected impact on their balance sheets. 

I simply love researching, teaching, and challenging status-quo methods. My speeches, workshops, books, and online programs fulfill me in this mission. 

I invite you to join our community. It would certainly help us continue the work; and I think you'd find it remarkably refreshing.”

S1-E49 She Attempted Suicide, a Survivor's Story of Service-Kendra Letham

Kendra Letham shares her powerful story of living with depression, her struggle with medications, her suicide attempt, and life after the helicopter flight to the hospital.

Her message is clear! Don’t do it! There are people who will help you and there is a fulfilling life awaiting you.

Kendra is proof of that claim as she is not just raising awareness with her story, but she is Going Boldly as a Mental Health First Aid certified instructor.

In this role, she is training adults to be a first line of service to adolescents who may be hurting. This public education program is designed to help people understand the unique risk factors and warning signs of mental health problems and how to help.

Like many of us with a passion to serve others, Kendra is also exploring the various ways she can share her experiences and wisdom while also paying the bills. Look for her upcoming videos, book and social media posts where you will learn more. Maybe you need a speaker at your next event?

Great mental health has become even more important in the shadow of a global pandemic and all of the disruption that has resulted.

S1-E48 Max Filin and the WOWCube, revolutionizing entertainment, education, brain development, more!

Here is a riddle: What was invented by Russians, plus one twelve-year-old, has eight processors, 24 high-resolution Gorilla Glass displays, lots of sphere-shaped neodymium magnets, internet connectivity, runs your favorite apps, plays your favorite songs, and predicts your future?

Not to worry. I would not have figured it out either. But then I saw the WOWCube by Cubios, Inc. and I was immediately intrigued.

It’s so simple in its presentation and easy to manipulate, yet it’s almost too complicated to explain all that it is capable of doing or its sophistication of design and implementation!

A prototype was built in a camper, in cofounder and inventor Ilya Osipov’s driveway (rather than in the garage like some other tech giants) and now with designers and engineers around the world, this company has created an amazing origin story.

Another great example of a dedicated group of entrepreneurs solving problems, overcoming years of obstacles, and Going Boldly, every day!

The WOWCube is currently being sold through the website. Discover what is required to own this world-changing device here:
