RECOMMENDATION 1 - Writers Journey

Maya Angelou was an American poet, singer, memoirist, and civil rights activist. This weekend marks the fourth anniversary of her passing and I want to inspire you with one of her amazing quotes about creativity.

Taren Gesell, or as he’s known on the internet Triathlon Taren runs his own business dedicated to helping beginner triathletes (that’s the crazy sport where people swim bike and run), and I’m so excited to have him on the show because I personally have benefited from him putting out tonnes and tonnes of useful content via his YouTube channel, Instagram feed, podcast, newsletter, and online coaching. Taren is a perfect example of someone who decided they wanted to do what they truly loved and enjoyed for a living, set about building a great community around that, and is continually giving to that community. And ladies and gents if you want to see what a real man looks like in speedos head on over to his YouTube channel because he has no issue with the world seeing him in some of the loudest swimwear I have ever seen. This chat with Taren explains what life was like before he became Triathlon Taren, how he got started, and actions he takes to keep the momentum going.

Michael La Ronn writes 10-12 science fiction books every year. He now has 40 titles to his name and says that he is only just getting started! The amazing thing about Michael is that he writes so much whilst also having a busy full-time job, studying at law school, running his own podcast, and having a young daughter and a busy family life. How does he do it? In this interview, we explore how he got started writing, and some of the actions and steps he takes to create momentum. If you want some amazing advice on how to get started with your own business or creative endevour then you have to listen to this!
