Dare to Launch

Most people build a business because they want to experience more freedom. But something strange can happen along the way…

The more the business grows, the more freedom disappears… leaving them feeling trapped.

And if you feel like you can't step away from your business… or feel like it's slowly taken over your life, this might have happened to you.

This episode will help ge...

In my community, we have this thing called "launchlife."

Launchlife means building a business that supports and fits around your life and your goals… rather than the other way around.

Everyone's launchlife is different. 

And it doesn't matter what yours looks like… just that you actually have one.

Because to me, this is what building a business is really about...

There are no "easy" sales anymore…

The days when you could fire off a quick post and make some sales are gone.

Attention is expensive and customers have gotten skept...

Launching is one of the best ways of building an email list. But… what if you don't have an audience?

How do you get those first few hundred subscribers?

If you've ever built an audience from scratch, you'll know this can be a slow grind. It can feel like a rocket launch – it takes a ton of energy just to get off the ground. 

But what if there was a path that got you over th...

It's easy to think "I only teach knitting…" or "I'm only helping people choose better outfits…"

But in case nobody's told you lately…

What you do matters. More than you think.

And in this clip from Dare to Launch, I talk about the moment I finally understood that – and why you should NEVER...

When a book publisher turned her down, Sandra Angelo didn't argue…

Instead, she printed her book at Kinko's, put it in a Ziploc bag… and sold it for $10.

That "rejected" book went on to make her over $1.2MM.

(And yes, that publisher came crawling back years later!)

If last year felt kinda weird – that's because it was weird. 

Conversions dropped. Engagement tanked – 2025 was a tough year to be a business owner. 

So let's dig into some of the practical, tactical changes we're making this year.

And not just me…

In this week's episode of Dare to Launch, we're joined by Emma and Eleanor from The Reconnected.

My friend Pat Flynn just shared a great solution for the "succeed without burning yourself out" problem. 

And this might be one of the best skills you can learn…

It's no secret I'm not hustle culture's biggest fan. 

Sure, there are times when you need to push the pedal to the floor. But there's only so much pushing you can do before you burn out.

Trouble is, b...

Hal Elrod shouldn't be alive.

When he was 20, he was hit head-on by a drunk driver and declared clinically dead for six minutes. When he came out of his coma, the doctors had more bad news – they told him he'd never walk again…

But he did.

Years later, Hal was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive cancer… and given two weeks to live.

He beat that too.

It's the time of year when folks are getting excited about the goals they want to hit next year. And while having goals is awesome…

When you set a goal that feels really big, it can drain the energy out of you – the finish line seems so far away… a little too out of reach. 

But before you start setting your sights on lower, more "realistic" targets, here's something I've noticed…

Every episode of Dare to Launch features a taco break – quick-fire questions to keep things fun.

As you might have guessed, most of these questions revolve around Mexican food. But we also toss in the odd curveball or two.

Here's why – fun, unexpected questions often get genius answers you'd never have gotten otherwise.

This clip with Mike Michalowicz is a great example.

The difference between "they're never going to buy" and "heck yeah… this is a sale!" is night and day…

That's what Chris said in this clip from Dare to Launch and he's right on the money – especially when it comes to getting that all-important first sale…

A quick win flips a switch – it shuts down your inner critic and boosts your confidence – making a second, third, and fourth "yes" even ...

Most people think you have to be the face of your business to really make it big. But Johannes Waldow has done the exact opposite…

And he's not just built ONE big business…

He's built SEVEN, 7-figure businesses – in seven different niches – all without stepping in front of the camera or being "the expert."

And he did it before AI was even a thing.

In this week...

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. 

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.

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 ...

Every Launch Masterclass (my big annual launch) Dan and I do a live Q&A.

No scripts or fancy slides – just me and Dan riffing off each other, answering the questions that matter. And even though the 2025 Launch Masterclass has come and gone…

I'm sharing some of the best questions – and answers – in this week's episode of Dare to Launch.

So if you've ever thought…
