MMP 026 : Start Living Life on Your Terms TODAY w/ Kelsey Cronkhite 0
Nov 7, 2016
Life doesn't always go as we plan it.  I'm willing to bet that there have been times when you've been knocked off the rails and had no idea how to get things back on track.  I know I've had a number of those experiences in my life.  Today's guest knows that feeling better than most.  But what sets her apart is not the challenges she was faced with, but instead the way she reacted and how she bounced back stronger than ever.
 
Kelsey Cronkhite, founder of Pinegate Road, knew that one day she wanted to run her business full time.  Some day in the unspecified future, she would leave her corporate job and live life on her terms.  But what she didn't know, is that life had other plans for her.  Finding herself laying in a hospital bed, she came to the realization that "someday" was no longer in the distant future.  "Someday" had suddenly become "today".  
 
In this episode, Kelsey shares how she made the journey from employee to entrepreneur, and how she conquered some unforeseen mountains along the ways.  We discuss the importance of knowing your core values and how you can find them.
 
Get ready to be fired up!

MMP 025 : Billionaire Serial Entrepreneur (Priceline, uBid, ColorJar) Jeff Hoffman Shares the Keys to Millennials' Success 0
Oct 31, 2016
Today, I am very excited to be able to share a conversation I had with a successful and inspiring serial entrepreneur, Jeff Hoffman.  To set the stage for what level Jeff is on, in talking with him after we recorded this episode, he casually mentioned that he was flying to Mexico in a few days to host an event with Richard Branson... Yeah, he's the real deal.
 
It could take me a full episode to give all of the details of Jeff's bio, so here's the abridged version. Jeff is a:
  • successful entrepreneur
  • proven CEO (public and private companies)
  • worldwide motivational speaker
  • published author
  • Hollywood film producer
  • producer of a Grammy-winning jazz album
  • board member for numerous companies
  • founder of 8 different companies, most note notably his involvement with Priceline.com
 
He now spends a lot of his time traveling around the world to mentor up and coming entrepreneurs.  Jeff is very generous with his time, as he proved by agreeing to meet up with me in person to record this episode.  We recorded this one in a coffee shop, so you can hear the background noise and ambiance as if you were sitting right there next to us.

MMP 024 : How to Be a Financial Grownup w/ Bobbi Rebell 0
Oct 24, 2016
There is one subject that is pertinent to all of our lives.  But the curious thing is that this topic is commonly overlooked throughout our journey through the educational system.  It is rarely taught in high school or even required at the collegiate level.  The subject I am referring to is personal finance.  
 
For whatever reason, we spend the majority of our young lives being prepared to enter the "real world" to pursue a career and make money, yet we never learn what to do with this money when we have it.  Today's guest is on a mission to educate the masses on common and not-so-common financial pitfalls and learnings.  Bobbi Rebell is an award-winning journalist and advocate for financial literacy. She currently leads the U.S. business video unit for Reuters, the largest news organization in the world.  And lucky for us, she just released her new book How to Be a Financial Grownup.  
 
In this episode, Bobbi and I discuss a wide array of financial elements that millennials should be aware of.  For the book, she interviewed 30 top business leaders to better understand how these high achievers think about their own personal finances, and the challenges they faced early in their careers.  There are a lot of learnings in this one, and I highly encourage you to check out her new book.
 
Enjoy!
 
 
 
 
MMP 023 : Use “Micro Goals” to Build Your Dream Life 0
Oct 3, 2016

This week’s episode is a quick solo session.  While at the gym, I was struck with a realization that I had to share with you fine folks.  I dive into the concept of “micro goals” and how they can help you achieve your biggest dreams.

I often find there to be incredible parallels between fitness (physical growth) and personal optimization (personal growth).  I find these ties to be extremely helpful in conceptualizing how personal development contributes to our success and growth in life.  Join me as I share how micro goals work both in the gym and in our lives.

Also, I really want to make sure that this show is delivering value to you.  That’s the whole reason I started this show in the first place. So in an effort to do that, I want to give you all the opportunity to get on my calendar and schedule some time for us to connect over a quick phone call.  I want to know where you’re struggling right now and how I can best serve you.    

There are no strings attached to this offer.  I’m not selling or charging anything.  So if you’re interested, please head over to millennialmm.com/call to book a call with yours truly.  I hope to talk to you soon!

MMP 022 : From college dropout to partnering with multi-millionaires w/ Markado Escano 0
Sep 19, 2016

In this episode, we explore how our guest truly went from zero to hero.  I’m honored to be joined by Melbourne, Australia native, Markado Escano.  Markado went from dropping out of college, to starting his own business, to surrounding himself with some of the giants of the personal development industry like Peter Voogd, Joel Brown, Lewis Howes and Tai Lopez. 

Markado teaches me the formula he used to get around the high performing individuals that he now partners with in his own business.  He shares some amazing strategies to elevate the level of your network. 

Please enjoy this conversation with Markado Escano.  If you find this episode valuable, I’d really appreciate it if you headed over to millennialmm.com/itunes to subscribe to the show and leave an honest rating or review.  Thanks for checking out the show!

MMP 021 : Change your life and change the world w/ Carmen Westbrook 0
Sep 12, 2016
 
Remember the Ebola outbreak? When we all thought the Black Plague of the 21st century was upon us and life as we knew it was ending. Well, so does Carmen Westbrook. Because while the rest of the world was worrying about the future, she was actively making moves to change it.  And no, she's not a doctor, medical researcher or millionaire donor.  At the time, she was just another concerned citizen, but had an extraordinary drive to help. Hence was born Aina Giving.
 
Today, Aina Giving has morphed into an organization of change that empowers people to reach out across boundaries to help anyone, anywhere, without barriers of time, distance or culture. 
 
Carmen joins us today to share what she's learned along this epic journey.  We talk about how she's overcome fears and self doubts, including when she realized the company was turning into her "ugly baby" and she needed to pivot.  We also cover what motivates her, the power of a supportive community and how Aina is changing the world.  There is no lack of inspiration in this one, so prepare to have your internal fire rekindled.
 
Enjoy!

Aug 24, 2016
Boy oh boy am I excited for you guys to check out this week's episode.  Why, you ask?  Because Justin Lefkovitch is the real deal when it comes to successful entrepreneurs making a big splash in the world of experiential marketing.  Oh, and did I mention that he's only 28 years old?  Baller status.
 
In this week's conversation, Justin walks us through how he started his company out of broom closet (seriously) yet still managed to land MTV as his first client.  He now works with some of the music industry's top talents like Kaskade and Bebe Rexha, and big name clients like Syfy and Acura.
 
We cover a ton in this one, so sit back and prepare to be inspired!

MMP 019 : How I Got a New Job and Upgraded My Career 0
Aug 11, 2016
 
Today I am extremely grateful to announce that I just started a new job.  And not only that, but it is a job that has shortened my commute to work, compensates me much better and is within an emerging industry that will likely open more doors as my career progresses (the big data industry).  
 
Now, I'm not telling you this to brag about my cool new job.  On the contrary, I actually feel a bit awkward talking about it.  But in taking such a big step forward in my career and life, I feel that it is my obligation to share how this opportunity came about and how I positioned myself to be the top candidate for the role.
 
This one is just a quick solo episode, but I tried to load it up with as much useful content as I could.  Let me know what you think in the comments below, and how I can help you find your dream job!
MMP 018 : Build Thriving Relationships With Other Generations w/ Ryan Jenkins 0
Aug 1, 2016
 
Everyone and their cousin twice removed is talking about the stereotypes Millennials fall into.  I can't blame them, it's easy to talk about and there are millions of sources you can quote on the topic.  So today, I wanted to look at the generational divide from a different perspective. 
 
What misconceptions and overgeneralizations do we Millennials have about the other generations?
 
That is the question I set out to answer when I connected with Ryan Jenkins.  A leading blogger, podcaster and keynote speaker on the topic of Millennials and their relationships with other generations, it's not surprising that Ryan had some great insight on the topic.  We get into:
  • Communication between Millennials and other generations
  • Misconceptions of Gen X and Baby Boomers
  • What to know about the emerging Generation Z
  • Much, much more

MMP 016 : How to Start a Successful Marketing Agency in NYC in Your 20s 0
Jul 18, 2016
Some folks might not advise a 20-something-year-old to quit a VP position at powerhouse consumer packaged goods company Reckitt Benckiser, owner of household brands like Lysol, Air Wick, Mucinex and many more you would know, to gamble on their own entrepreneurial venture. Some folks might call that a "bad plan".  But those folks clearly do not know Dionna McPhatter, the Co-Founder and Managing Partner of BLKBOX, a Millennial marketing agency in NYC.
 
You see, Dionna, along with her business partner Keenan Beasley, had identified a very tangible opportunity and carefully calculated that it had a big enough value proposition to leave their Fortune 500 careers in the rearview mirror.  Now seeing the rapid success of BLKBOX, many folks might call this a "good plan".  In this week's episode, I had the opportunity to discuss the strategies, practices and mindset Dionna used to make her dream a reality.
 
In this conversation, Dionna walks us through the key principles she learned at West Point that helped her achieve success in the business world, the true meaning and importance of "personal branding", how to identify and evaluate opportunities, along with much, much more.  To connect with Dionna or learn more about BLKBOX, you can follow her on Twitter @dphat23 or visit www.weareblkbox.com. 
 
I hope you enjoy my conversation with the very smart and undeniably inspirational Dionna McPhatter!
 
MMP 015 : The Greatest Opportunities and Challenges of the MiLLENNiAL Generation w/ Britt Hysen 0
Jul 11, 2016
It seems that everywhere you look these days, you find a stereotype of the millennial generation.  We've all heard the same story told over and over.  Millennials are lazy, dependent on their parents, impatient and (my personal favorite) oh so entitled. Britt Hysen heard these generalizations too, but they didn't align with what she could see happening around her. So she decided to build a platform to express inspirational millennial stories from around the globe.  And thus was born MiLLENNiAL Magazine, an online publication with a mission to spread the powerful stories not being told about gen Y. She now acts as the magazine's Editor-in-Chief.
 
Britt joins me this week to discuss the inspiration behind MiLLENNiAL and some of the biggest challenges and opportunities our generation faces. Being an early influencer in the "millennial scene", Britt has become known as an expert on the successes of the generation. Her publication helps to dispel the negative reputation that follows millennials like a black cloud.  
 
The millennial stereotype may not change overnight, but may be salvaged moving forward thanks to the efforts of inspirational thought leaders like Britt.

MMP 014 : Military Principles To Level Up Your Career and Life 1
Jul 4, 2016
With nearly 30 years in the Air Force on 10 different assignments, Colonel (retired) Ron Yakkel has a deep understanding of the fundamental and advanced Air Force principles that lead to a successful career. He has now taken that military foundation and translated it into a civilian capacity as an Instructor of Security Cooperation and the Regional Seminar Director for the Indo-Asia Pacific Region at the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, OH. 
 
It would be an understatement to say that I'm lucky to have known Colonel Yakkel for quite literally my entire life, as he happens to be my mother's brother. That's right, the man who many have saluted as their ranking officer has always been "Uncle Ron" to me. So this episode was a real treat for me to be able to dive into some of the specific military principles that millennials can apply to their own lives to achieve massive success.
 
In this episode, Ron discusses the Air Force's Core Values and how anyone can incorporate them into their lives. We cover A LOT of great advice in this one, including:
  • Importance of a positive outlook on life
  • How a millennial can become a better leader
  • Don't be afraid to take advantage of opportunities 
  • 4 things that will get you fired
  • The learning never stops
  • Don't be afraid to make a decision
  • Do the important stuff first

MMP 010 : Fulfilling Your Dreams w/ Calli Roberts 0
May 31, 2016
I can hardly believe it, but this week we cross the threshold into the realm of double digit numbered episodes. To celebrate I invited a very special guest to join me on the show. I am excited to introduce you all to my partner in crime, the lovely Calli Roberts. 
 
I specifically wanted to bring Calli on to give you some insight into my personal life and to get her perspective on some of the challenges and opportunities we are presented with as millennials. She has a great perspective as she has recently launched her own blog, became a rep for a network marketing organization, coaches a youth girls' volleyball team and has a full time marketing job on top of it all.

MMP 009 : Find Yourself by Engaging In Your Community w/ Ashley Basile Oeken 0
May 23, 2016
As 20-something-year-old young professionals, many of us Millennials are constantly finding ourselves in a transitional phase of our lives. Graduation from undergrad or grad school. Transitioning to a new job. Starting a family. Moving to a new city. Shopping at Whole Foods for the first time. Whatever your transition may be, you aren't alone if you feel a bit uprooted and maybe even a little lost.
 
This week's guest, Ashley Basile Oeken, knows that feeling well.  That's exactly what she went through when she first moved to Cleveland after grad school.  She then did what any sensible young professional would do.  She got a job, stuck it out and found her place in the crazy new city she called home.  That is until she decided she didn't want any more young professionals in Cleveland feeling lost when they arrived in the city, and took matters into her own hands. 
 
Ashley became the first staff member and is now the President of the young professional organization Engage! Cleveland. In this episode, we discuss an assortment of topics regarding millennials making transitions in their lives.  We dig into networking, the importance of making "adult" friends, a changing workplace culture and the ominous career clout around "job-hopping".

Just a few years older than myself, Jason has assembled an impressive collection of professional achievements and built a remarkable career in the healthcare field.  He has held a number of notable positions in his field, and is now a Senior Consultant with DHG Healthcare, the healthcare industry practice of Dixon Hughes Goodman LLP.
 
So how did he do it?  How did he reach such a remarkable level of success in so short a period of time?  That's exactly what Jason is here to teach us.
 
In this episode you will hear how being actively engaged in every opportunity along his journey has catapulted his career to extraordinary heights.  Jason sheds light on an array of Millennial-relevant topics including:

May 9, 2016
There are some people you hang out with who you can't help but want to be their friend.  Jason Orsky is definitely one of these people.  And it doesn't take long to figure out why.  The guy would literally give you the shirt off his back if you needed it (I've seen him do it).  And as a business owner, he's seen first hand that living as a servant not only makes you feel great, it is a profitable approach to business.
 
Jason shares some great stories in this episode that may even elicit a tear or two.  Have your tissues on deck.  Some of the key topics we cover include:

  • Keeping your problems in perspective
  • Business success derived from a philanthropic lifestyle
  • Defining what success means to you
  • Giving what you have: time or money

His book, The Go-Giver, coauthored with John David Mann has sold over half a million copies and it has been translated into 21 languages.

  2. The Law of Compensation: Your income is determined by how many people you serve and how well you serve them.
  3. The Law of Influence: Your influence is determined by how abundantly you place other people's interests first.
  4. The Law of Authenticity: The most valuable gift you have to offer is yourself.
  5. The Law of Receptivity: The key to effective giving is to stay open to receiving.

Listen now to hear how Ryan turned his dream into a reality.  We also discuss the importance of being true to yourself, accepting that you can't make everyone happy (and shouldn't), why you should never give up and much more.

MMP 002 : How to Get Anything You Want in Life w/ Gene McNaughton 0
Apr 6, 2016

No matter what your industry, job title or career stage, you're a salesperson.  You could be selling product to a client, selling your boss on paying you more or selling your kids on why they need to eat their vegetables.  All of us are selling every day.  Heck, my girlfriend just sold me on a new coffee table without me even realizing it.

That's why when Jedi Master Salesman Gene McNaughton talks... I listen.  Gene gives some powerful advice in this episode, including the 5 steps to get anything you want in life.

Apologies in advance for the less-than-stellar sound quality.  I'm still trying to figure out this whole "microphone" thing.  But nonetheless, it's a great episode!

Enjoy!
