In this powerful episode of The High Profit Event Show, host Rudy Rodriguez sits down with Brody Lee, a seasoned event strategist, former Buddhist monk, and the author of Million Dollar Events. With a resume that includes over 1,400 events and more than $125 million in client revenue, Brody brings a unique blend of spiritual depth and business acumen to the conversation. His approach to events goes far beyond logistics—Brody believes that when done right, events can become platforms for profound change and movement-building.
Brody introduces his signature Five-Step Framework—Set Up, Show Up, Blow Up, Pay Up, and Scale Up—which he’s used to help clients turn their events into profitable, purpose-driven experiences. This system doesn’t just ensure a successful event—it builds a foundation for long-term scalability and deeper transformation for both attendees and hosts. From aligning the event with personal mission and lifestyle to creating world-class experiences that convert with integrity, Brody breaks down the essential steps every event leader must master.
The conversation also explores a paradigm-shifting view on events as catalysts for both business and social impact. Brody challenges event leaders to move away from transactional models and toward immersive experiences that foster connection, community, and change. He discusses how events have historically served as the engine behind every major movement, and how today’s entrepreneurs can harness that same energy in their own work. This episode encourages listeners to rethink what events are really capable of achieving.
Finally, Brody dives into one of the biggest challenges faced by event leaders: filling the room. He explains why outdated tactics no longer work and how integrity-driven strategies—like affiliate partnerships, pre-event nurturing, and AI tools—can attract aligned, qualified attendees. He emphasizes the importance of treating your audience not as ATMs, but as partners in transformation, and offers actionable insights for building trust from the very first touchpoint.
Whether you’re hosting your first event or looking to scale your results, this episode offers a masterclass in designing events that make a difference—and a profit. Don’t miss Brody Lee’s fresh, inspiring, and highly practical take on the future of high-impact events.
