What does language learning have to do with entrepreneurship and success?

EVERYTHING!

Episode 26 of the Inspiring Innovation Podcast is an exclusive interview with the Irish Polyglot (speaker of multiple languages) – Benny Lewis.

In this truly unique and inspiring interview, Benny talks about how he became a polyglot, what it takes to learn a language in 3 months and from that we conclude how to set yourself to achieve anything in life – whether it’s learning a foreign language or being successful in business.

With over eleven years of travelling all over the world and learning languages along the way, Benny talks about the unconventional techniques he learned from his experiences. We discuss his product that allows him to make a living from what he loves, and his goals with blogging. You’ll find out why Benny think it’s wrong to try to become a guru prodigy that has all the answers, as he offers a much easier and more satisfying path.

Benny shares some great tips and solutions to roadblocks that other people come up with when trying to learn a language – or achieve any type of goal in life. It turns out that it’s always the same roadblocks, no matter what challenge one faces.

IIP 017: The Little White Lie That Created A $500,000 Business

For Lisa Howell, founder of ‘Perfect Form Physio’ and ‘The Ballet Blog’, her $500,000 business all started with some lucky circumstances, and a little white lie.

But Lisa’s story and interview is much more than a “normal” inspiring-entrepreneurial-story of seizing an opportunity and putting hours over hours into building a successful business.

Lisa was willing to share with us, in the most honest and sincere way, a part of an entrepreneur’s life that is rarely discussed in the open. If you often find yourself reading about all these success stories, thinking, “this guy/girl was born for this, but I wasn’t”, and wonder if you have what it takes to see similar success – today’s episode is for you.

Lisa shares the “dark side” of entrepreneurship; fighting fears and doubts, self sabotaging your own success, countless nights of no sleep, and how it all affects you, your close ones, your health, relationships and happiness. And most importantly – how to deal with it, making the required changes to let you really enjoy your journey, and your success.

The Beginning

“I’ve been a healer for my entire life”, she tells me. Continue reading IIP 017: The Little White Lie That Created A $500,000 Business

IIP 009 : Rick Calvert (CEO of NMX) On Turning An Idea Into Reality

Interview with BlogWorld & New Media Expo CEO and co-founder; Rick Calvert

My guest on episode 9 of the Inspiring Innovation Podcast, shares a real-life story of turning a grand idea into reality. In 2005, Rick Calvert started a personal blog sharing his views on state politics, a subject he’s personally passionate about.

As time passed more and more people were reading his blog. Internet-famous bloggers started mentioning him and linking to his site. The ball was rolling. Then, someone contacted him asking to advertise on his blog.

When someone offered him money, Rick realized there is a bigger opportunity in his hobby and decided to “go pro”. Since he worked in the trade shows world, the first thing that came to his mind was finding when the next blogging trade show takes place; so he could come down, network, meet people, and learn more about making blogging his main business.

“I Knew What I Was Looking For… But None Existed”

Rick Calvert, co-founder and CEO of Blogworld New Media Expo

Rick quickly found out that there was no such trade show anywhere in the world in existence. So he asked around, first his blogging friends if such thing would interest them, and then his trade show peers, asking, “do you think it’s a good idea?”

They all did. So Rick had his validation, and set to work. Only he was already holding a full-time job, so this became his second job. He worked a full work week at his day job, and clocked over 40 hours each week building his dream trade show. Two years later, it was launched in the greatest trade show city in the world – Las Vegas.

Today his show brings together thousands of people from 50 different countries, creates new businesses and new opportunities, new partnerships, and helps content creators make more money, get sponsored, and build a better business.

What Rick And I Talked About

Today’s interview tells the story of the creation of BlogWorld and New Media Expo, sharing a real life entrepreneurial story of turning an idea into reality, but also packed with tips and advice to bloggers, podcasters, YouTubers and other content creators who seek making a business and a living out of it.
