Today’s Episode Summary:

After achieving success in anything, have you ever asked yourself “what would be my next achievement”? If you haven’t then you should better ask yourself this question because success is not a “once in a lifetime” kind of thing, it is a process that should continue with your life. My today’s guest, Marco Robinson, is someone who kept achieving success again and again and did not stop himself on his very first success considering it “once and for all”.

Marco Robinson has a very impressive and long list of achievements but behind his successful life, there is a very difficult and challenging childhood. When he was 2 years old, Marco’s mother left Marco’s father and decided to go back to her family because Marco’s father was involved in gambling and had blown away her entire money. When Marco’s mother went back to her family, along with little Marco, her step-father thrown her out of the house and refused to shelter them. Afterward, the homeless mother and son started struggling for their survival, and meanwhile, his mother got married to a person who later on turned into a violent person. In this abusive environment Marco grew up as a traumatized and shy person, and then at the age of 15 an incident happened in Marco’s life that gave him courage to stand up against all odds of his life.

Marco wanted to change his life and wanted to achieve success so badly that he worked tirelessly to build himself and his business. Determined Marco started the journey from being a salesperson and with few years, with the help of a mentor, he changed his density forever and set himself on the path of achievements one after another.  Marco says that his mentor gave him a book on sales called “bring out the magic in your mind” by Al Koran which proved as a real game-changer in his sales career.

Afterward, he built a strong reputation and received countless job opportunities from everywhere in the world. He was offered to run a public company in Malaysia which he accepted and started working in Malaysia. A few months later economy of Malaysia collapsed but regardless of that he turned this ordinary Malaysian company into a billion-dollar company.

Then another sequence of achievements began in his life; he started his own company that went successful, he wrote a book that became the best selling, he started his TV show “Get a House for Free” on Channel 4 TV Station in the UK (where he gives houses away to the homeless and underprivileged people). He also made a movie “Legacy of Lies” that stood 4th on NETFLIX and also won 19 awards and TEN for the best feature film of 2020.

He was also given the honorary title “knighthood” for helping the blinds in Malaysia to be allowed to keep guide-dogs in public places (that was not allowed in Malaysia before). This initiative started with a successful short documentary “Are You Blind” that attracted over 15 million viewers on Youtube and facebook. This documentary opened many new doors of opportunities for him and he also attracted a lot of fame and attention from the world.

Now, keeping pandemic in perspective, Marco has started mentoring people to start their online business; whether it is an eCommerce store, social media agency, or their own course. He has also created a course for actors and filmmakers who are struggling to get to the NETFLIX and a bigger screen. Marco is renewing his success again and again with every new era and setting an amazing example for the world.

To know how he achieved so many things in life, tune in and listen to this successful life podcast.

Today’s Episode Summary:

Today’s guest, Nina Aouilk, is the true definition of a strong woman. She was born in a family where gender-based discrimination was at its max. Her birth as a girl child was a stigma for her family so they kept abusing her physically, mentally, and even sexually. Not only in her childhood but abuse followed her throughout her life. At the age of 14, her drunk father along with his friends raped her in her own house. She was raped several times and ended up becoming pregnant at the age of 15. After the abortion, she tried to take her life considering it “not worth living” but she survived.

At the age of 16, she was forced into an arranged marriage with a boy who was the son of one of the men who raped her. After marriage, she fought for 4 years with her father-in-law who was constantly trying to rape her again. At the age of 21, she escaped back to her parent’s home thinking it was a good move to get away from an abusive life. But her family beat her up on her return, because in their culture “if you leave your marital home, you bring shame upon your family”. Her parents planned to kill her in the name of honor but she escaped from her home and saved her life.

After that, she started living with a person who offered her a place to live and ended up becoming pregnant with his child. The story of her abuse was not over yet. Her partner was also abusive and as a result of domestic violence, she lost her second child. Later on, she had 2 more kids and his partner kept abusing her and kept trying several times to murder her but she saved her life every time. She was not vocal about this abuse because she grew up seeing nothing but abuse and when you start your life from a point like that it becomes very hard to feel confident in your own being to stand against something like this. Anyhow, keeping the abusive environment in perspective, she sent her elder child to a boarding school while the younger one was staying with her. With the growing violence at home, her younger child attracted a disease due to depression and ended up becoming hospitalized. One day when her partner tried to kill her, by setting the whole house on fire, her elder son saved her life and they ran away from their home forever.

After ending 23 years of an abusive relationship, homeless, Nina struggled a lot to keep her children’s life going. She didn’t want to be hurt anymore and she didn’t want to give up. So, she did multiple cleaning jobs at a time and completely dedicated her life to make her children’s life better. With her belief that there is still something bigger and better out there and life will be better one day, she kept going with perseverance.

Finally, she freed herself from limiting beliefs and achieved a good life for herself and her children. Now she is living her life on her own terms and with a purpose and a mission. She coaches other people to see meaning and purpose in their life. Her objective is to reach as many people as she can, who are feeling lost in life, to liberate them from shackles that are stopping them to be happy and successful in life.

Nina’s story is worth listening to. So, tune in and listen to the story of Nina in her own words in detail.

At the age of 12, her mother kicked her out of the house and she grew up in a Care System. She was carrying a lot of anger, sadness, and frustration that led her toward drugs. At the age of 16, she became pregnant and hustled a lot to provide for her kid as a single mother. Later on in life, she was physically abused in Spain by a police officer and was almost died but she kept silent over it until recently. She lost her father along the way and all of this led her toward severe depression. Not only that, in 2017, she went through a huge car accident and ended up in coma.

Throughout her life, Scarlett was living in flight or fight mode. She always used to be in survival mode but after recovering from coma, she started her self transformational journey. She had nothing but willingness to be something more. She started working on her inner-self, joined NLP, and also started training and bodybuilding. In 2019, she participated in a bodybuilding competition and won the prestigious ‘Ms Atlas’ award.

Scarlett is an extremely brave lady who fought with many challenging and bizarre events in her life. She stood up every time and challenged the challenges of her life. After the huge success of ‘Ms Atlas’, now Scarlett is on a mission to help people break through the limitation of their past. She is helping people to create the life they desire and improve their mental health and relationships.

Successful Life Podcast | Host: Corey Berrier with guest Jessica McLaren

Guest: Jessica McLaren; Owner of the company “Next Level Life”, Family and relationship coach, and a community builder.

Today’s Episode Summary:

Today’s guest, Jessica McLaren, transitioned from being a principal teacher to an entrepreneur. She came into the world of entrepreneurship to create an impact on the world and she is doing that very beautifully. Jessica is traveling around the world to help other people to elevate their level of success. Today Jessica is sharing with us her thoughts on becoming an entrepreneur, her travel experience during the pandemic, and her journey of personal transformation.

A lot of people look at entrepreneurs and fascinate their lives and fame but they don’t see their immense hard work. They just see the tip of an iceberg and assume that entrepreneurs have a lot of money and they can do whatever they want to do. But the truth is, being an entrepreneur is not as easy as it appears. It is a difficult path and it is almost synonymous with going through a grind. But if you are an entrepreneur by your choice and you are doing something that you love – regardless of how many hours you are putting in – and your work is truly aligned with your core values then you don’t feel the hard work. Rather you willingly put hours into your work.

Jessica says that to achieve success in life you don’t need to live the way society expects you to live. You don’t need to do a 9 to 5 job, you don’t need to earn a certain level of income to be happy, and you don’t need to retire at a certain age – work as many days as you want. Live your life the way you want to live it and make your own decisions because we achieve success only when we live authentically as our true selves, at our soul level, and in alignment with our true mission, purpose, and passion in life. But if we put our energy into something that doesn’t relate to us then we cannot be successful.

Don’t avoid or suppress your emotions because emotion is a powerful tool and every human emotion serves a greater purpose. Moreover, live in the present moment and don’t bother yourself about the past because you cannot change it. Let your past go and enjoy your present. You cannot change your past but you can manipulate your future through visualization and manifestation. Also, don’t try to control the uncontrollable events of your life and surrender in front of uncontrollable things and then see the magic.

Listen to the podcast to learn in detail how all of these things work together and take you toward success. Tune in and enjoy the conversation.

Successful Life Podcast | Host: Corey Berrier with guest Keyen Lage

Guest: Keyen Lage; leadership coach

Apple Podcast

Spotify Podcast

Today’s Episode Summary:

My guest, Keyen, is a leadership coach but before starting his coaching business he was an athlete and a national football player. Due to an accident, he sustained some serious injuries and lost his ability to play football forever. After this catastrophic incident, he transitioned to his second life and started a new journey with a new purpose.

Keyen says that his limitation gave him fulfillment because a lot of people are chasing their dreams and trying to accomplish their dreams, but they are forever operating in the position of finding identity in the pursuit of their dreams. Throughout their life, they keep finding their identity and their happiness becomes dependent on their identity, achievements, and success. They don’t feel independent and it becomes very difficult for them to live a contented life.

We, human beings, attach so many identities to ourselves that are actually limiting our potential and growth and it becomes very difficult for us to separate them from us. We attach ourselves too much to the earthly titles that if these titles are snatched away from us we become sad. We think we are nothing without these titles and identities. Keyen promotes the idea of ‘being ok with being in a place without titles’. He says that your identity and happiness shouldn’t be wrapped up by your success.

There is nothing wrong with achieving success but we take the extra pressure of success by considering it as our only point of survival. This idealization of success not only creates stresses in our lives but it also affects our process of success. We, human beings, are very hard on ourselves. We pressurize ourselves to achieve more and more and there is no finish line. We motivate ourselves with the belief of ‘Do or Die’ that shows how addicted we are to succeed.

Addiction has different faces. In-fact, there are 2 categories of addiction. One category involves addiction of drugs, porn, alcohol, sex, etc. While other category includes addiction of achievements, addiction of success, addiction of helping others, addiction of religion, etc. The second category is more dangerous than the first category because the rate of people in this category is more than the other one. But we don’t feel these are also addictive behaviors because society glorifies them. Society does not see that the other side of this submission or idealization is a lot of sadness.

To live a contented, happy, and successful life we need to detach our happiness from these identities and change the programming that society has inculcated in our brains. We need to live our life without being so concerned about the definitions of success created by society and we need to live our life on our own terms and that is what’s called real living.

What You Will Learn from this Episode:

Marketing and branding are two very important factors and everything else in the business depend on them. Branding is important to a business because of the overall impact it makes on your business. It changes how people perceive your brand and increases your brand awareness. However, digital marketing helps you to reach more people and ultimately helps you to generate more sales. So, whether you are a small business, startup, partnership or corporation, marketing and branding are equally important for you. You need both strategies to take your business to the next level and if you will miss any one of them, the outcome will not be as desired.

Ruben also talks about the concept of money leverage and time leverage. As a business owner, your focus should be to maximize your business without investing your time. It is not viable for a business owner to wear multiple hats so, hire someone else instead of doing everything on your own. Hiring the right person for your work saves your time and it also saves you from unnecessary stress. Hiring the right fit for your work is an investment and if you don’t do that and you try to do everything on your own then your business will not go anywhere.

Moreover, we are having conversation about the podcasting model. The beauty of the podcasting model is that it is an evergreen model. It does not require your focus all the time rather it works on its own. You just put your content and it works for you with the passage of time without your involvement.

An important strategy for a podcaster is to relate his own story in the podcast. Ruben suggests that if you are a podcaster, you should not relate your story over and over again in the same fashion because your audience will get bored of you. You can relate your story multiple times but with a new spice and along with different information. Ruben is explaining in detail how you can make your story engaging. To know the details of podcasting and the right marketing and branding strategies, listen to the podcast till the end.

Successful Life Podcast | Host: Corey Berrier with guest Tomas Kennan

Guest: Tomas Kennan; Business and Success Coach, Bestselling Author, and the Host of Step It Up Entrepreneur Podcast.

Today’s Episode Summary:

My today’s guest, Tomas Kennan, started his entrepreneurial journey from a very humble beginning. He started his journey from being a custom car audio installer and after continuous struggles, he achieved his jackpot; he transitioned from being a technician to the CEO of top-class installations. Tomas is now working as a business coach and helps other entrepreneurs in multiplying their business. Today Tomas is sharing with us his entrepreneurial journey and his life lessons so that we could learn and use his experience to our advantage.

Tomas tried and experienced multiple things before reaching his ultimate ‘Why’. He encourages people that you shouldn’t stop trying to reach your jackpot regardless of how many No’s you hear in life. He says that you will hear a bunch of no’s in the process of success, so instead of stopping you should observe your decisions and your path, get lessons from it, and move on.

When Tomas started his first business, he used to do everything on his own. He was operating as a filter, which passes everything, which led him to close his business as a result of his damaged health. Thomas says that he wanted to build a business that is reliant on him only, but that was not the right thing to do. Handling everything in your business on your own is not a professional way to handle a business. If you will start doing that, your business will become a stressful business and it will cost you your health. Most business people ignore their health and give their whole self to their business and their business ultimately consumes them. We as human beings need to priorities our health over everything else because work is not the only thing that matters in life.

After the first failed attempt of business, Tomas learned the business from various coaches and came back into the world of business. He transitioned from the car audio installer and started the Installation Company specializing in GPS tracking and dashboard camera installation in commercial trucks. He started this new business at the time of recession, but he was confident that he will make it work and he did it. He says that it’s not a recession that could stop you from doing something great; it can only be your own self. There is never a right time to start a business, get married, buy a house, have kids, etc. Just do it now and stop waiting for the perfect moment. Simple is that: Take the risk, Do it now, and Make it work.

Tomas also discusses that if you have a growth mindset and you are involved in any self-development process then you should also bring other people around you in this process. For example, you should bring your spouse into the process of self-development so that he/she could also grow with you. Your spouse’s involvement will not only benefit him/her but it will also benefit you. If you will not involve your spouse in the growth circle then your partner won’t grow and ultimately you both will have nothing to talk about.  So, bring your partner in the growth circle, involve hi/her with you, and grow together.

There is much more information in today’s podcast, so tune in and enjoy the conversation.

Today’s Episode Summary:

My today’s guest, Danielle Sabrina, is a female entrepreneur who started her career on Wall Street at the age of 19 – which made her the youngest trader in the industry- and now she is running her own agency. At the age of 19, she had 2 kids and pretty difficult life but her struggles made her cross all the hurdles and she achieved what most females business owners aspire to achieve.
If you also want to achieve a goal and want to achieve it quickly, then maybe this is the time that you divorce the myth of ‘achieving quick’. Success is not a quick trip, whether you like it or not but you have to go through a process to achieve it. Success is more like a ladder that you have to climb slowly and gradually and you cannot hasten because achieving faster is not always better.
Also, spirituality has a huge connection to achieving success. Spiritual practices – like meditation and affirmations – have the power to guide your thoughts at the time of chaos and help you to stay connected with your goal. Those who are aware of the power of manifestation and energy climb this ladder of success faster than those who don’t know.
If your goal is to grow a certain amount of money then figure-out the right MODEL that can generate that, and then give yourself time; just don’t hasten. If you stumble, communicate with someone but don’t suffer alone and also be authentic to yourself and with others. You may stumble many times in the process of success but you should be a man/woman enough to connect back to your purpose and keep claiming the ladder.
This is not it, there is a lot more to this episode. Listen to the podcast till the end.

Today’s Episode Summary:

Have you ever realized the power of incorporating new habits in your life? Incorporating small but consistent habits –like, rising early, reading books, listening to a productive conversation, etc- may look like they are not creating any impact on your life instantaneously but they have a huge compound effect on your life. The truth is, these atomic habits have the power to change the course of your life and can lead you toward your goal; success.
To unlock your true potential you first need to understand yourself and ask yourself some hard questions – like, what you are good at, what it is that you want in your life, how you can be a better person, etc – and then you need to incorporate new habits that are in alignment with your goal.
The biggest hurdle – that anyone faces while inculcating new habits – is the whirlwind of “busy life”. For most people their new habits get lost in the whirlwind of day-to-day life but if you want to reach your goal you really need to prioritize what you need in life over the whirlwind.
Now comes the question, how can you develop long lasting habits? For that, you need to understand that consistency is the key. A consistent new habit breaks old patterns and changes neural pathways in your brain that shifts you dramatically. My guest Emily is suggesting that you should maintain a diary to write your goals, ambitions, and your habits to be consistent in your habits.
Emily Thomas herself helps entrepreneurs and other people to know their true selves and helps them to remove blockages in their lives that are holding them back to achieve their goals. She is an educator and works on the mindsets to unpack the true power of the people. Emily combined her ability to educate people with her swimwear business and now she is creating an impact on the lives of many people especially women.
What You Will Learn from this Episode:
In today’s episode, you will learn how significantly new habits can change your life, how you can develop any new habit, how to break the illusion of “being busy” to create a new habit, and why developing new habits is super important for entrepreneurs. My guest Emily is also talking about the impact of deliberately incorporating new habits in her own life and how she is helping other people to unfold their true selves and achieve success.
Moreover, you will learn what is the role of intentions to achieve any goal, how to get out of any negative feeling and focus on goals, what is the role of visualization and affirmations in your success, what are some necessary questions that you must ask yourself to elevate yourself, and last but not the least how to get rid of two shackles: 1. Haunting memories of the past 2. Fear of the future.
