Neil Heritage is a motivational speaker and disabled Army veteran.
He has definitely inspired me. From the first day I heard of his story to now interviewing him, I am astounded by Neil’s courage and perseverance.
Neil served in the British Army for 11 years on the bomb disposal team in Bosnia, Northern Ireland, and Iraq.
He lost his legs in Iraq in 2004 where he was clearing a route for IEDs and a suicide bomber got through the cordon and detonated.
After the initial recovery from his injuries and adaptation to his new lifestyle, Neil tried all types of challenges: from triathlons to rowing across the Atlantic ocean to becoming the 1st below-the-knee double amputee to scale Matterhorn.
Neil has a foundation called Climb 2 Recovery. C2R supports wounded soldiers in their rehabilitation using climbing and adventurous challenges as a springboard to recovery.
No better episode to release on this day.

Jordan Gross is reimagining personal development. His full focus is to trail-blaze personal development through creative storytelling. Imagitivitation….. imagination, creativity, implementation.
Through writing, speaking, going back to school to learn the field and skills of therapy, and building communities of dreamers/makers, Jordan wants to uplift others with storytelling being the main foundation. 2021 is Jordan’s year of experimentation.
That’s why he is doing said things above. Another example being, his new book “What Happen in Tomorrow World”, which is a modern day fable about navigating uncertainty.
As he says, “The stories I write now are all for my grandma.” This new book just so happens to include the spirit of his grandma, as well. Being a 3-time author (Getting COMFY, Journey to Cloud Nine, What Happens in Tomorrow World), TEDx speaker, and even doing 90 podcast interviews in 90 days in one month within 2020, he is someone you want to take notes on.
Tune into this discussion to hear the journey and insights from Jordan himself, but most certainly make sure you watch what he is doing. He is definitely doing it right and making it true to him along the way.

Hennesys Disla is an experienced founder and the Creator of ArmHug with a demonstrated history of working in the hospital & health care industry.
She is skilled in healthcare, medical technology, and teaching.
Hennesys has a unique story in that she went to art school and was going to pursue a career at Disney Animation Studios. However, she was later engulfed into the world of science.
After being taken on a lab tour by a science friend from Stanford University, she couldn't believe how much she was missing out in the science world.
One thing Hennesys says is that she knew she would find her/mission if she enjoyed doing a job while working for free.
So, after volunteering at Mount Sinai Hospital in NY in 2015 and then staying for 2 years, it clicked for her.
To date, Hennesys has 2 patents under her belt and is solving a need that she, and others, came across while working at Mount Sinai Hospital - the ability to easily take care of patients and have the proper medical equipment to readily do so.
This is a journey unlike any other. Enjoy this one!

Last year, Karina Popovich was honored as Teen Vogue's 21 Under 21 for organizing an international group of makers to produce 82,000 units of PPE.
After going back home to Brooklyn “mid-semester with her 3 [3D] printers”, she did research on understanding how to “print medical grade PPE and additional materials.” That grew into Makers for COVID-19 and a group of 170+ members and one of the largest Maker collaborations for COVID-19.
In that being said, Karina is the Founder of Makers for COVID-19. The Head of Education and Policy at Women in 3D Printing, and an AAAS If/Then Ambassador.
She is now at Cornell University in the Dyson School of Economics and Finance.
From a young age, Karina had a knack for making things (i.e. building bridges out of popsicle sticks when young) and solving problems. With a spine of great virtue, Karina continues a similar pursuit, just on a larger playing field.
As she progresses in her endeavors, she keeps the mission of increasing the presence and opportunity for females in STEM at the forefront.
Improving as she goes and impacting along the way.
Some of Karina’s experiences include: Working at Microsoft in doing research at NYU for microreactors and machine learning, working at Amazon as a Software Development Engineer Intern, being the President and Founder of Connect with Tech - where she taught kids in Tanzania how to program, and being the Founder of Wear Alpha - which is a 3D-printed clothing line with a mission to reimagine a culture in STEM that is empowering of girls and women.

Genevieve Kim is a storyteller at heart, photographer, and creative consultant to many. She founded and built a creative media production studio called Triangleflash Studio, launched the global photography movement called the EYESEEYOU Project in 2017, and her work has appeared in The NY Times, Harper’s Bazaar, UN Habitats Reports, Business Insider, AdWeek, MOZAIC, and more.
Some of her clients as a creator include the UN Habitats, TEDx, Inscape, The Assemblage, Invisible Technologies, and When We Band Together.
She is actually in the midst of writing a book called “My Big Fu*^ You’s: Memoirs of a Creative Entrepreneur”.
Her openness to sharing her story is why she is such an altruistic, giving, of-service person.
To explain Genevieve in short, it was at age five that she started taking piano lessons and studied to be a classically trained opera singer. Through progression and evolution, she opened a yoga wellness center at one point. Yet, later on discovered her knack for business, as much as she did for creative.
Later, Genevieve got an MBA at Duke University with a concentration in finance and worked as a digital marketing strategist at Deloitte.
But as she says, “after suicidal depression, I realized what was the underlying cause of all my anguish: it was regret. When I gave up on being an opera singer there was a part of me that had given up on myself.” (source: see website below)
Deciding to face her regret once and reignite her creative voice again, she has been on a trailblazing journey since. Some call her a CMO (Chief Magic Officer), an entrepreneur, a creative, a photojournalist. Something that is evident though, is that she is a brand and purpose sherpa - helping build the brand, strategies, revenue streams, and more for individuals and businesses.
Also, check out the value she gives away with her project and podcast that she hosts and founded called The Permission to Promote Fest and The Permission to Promote Podcast.

Presence Plumb is the host of the podcast ”It starts with Action”. It came out just last year after she found her voice and also her vision.
At age 9, Presence moved to a foreign country. She didn’t know the language, received extremely low grades in her first year, and was bullied immensely because of it.
But eventually she worked her way to the best student of the year and also received the good student of the year award, which only 10 students receive in Hong Kong.
The bullying didn’t stop there though, as she was then bullied for her looks. This caused Presence to plunge into 6 years of anorexia and at the age of 14 was hospitalized since she was “basically a few days from death”. This shifted her perspective and got her thinking what she wanted her life to be like.
After recovery and improvement, Presence moved back to her home country to start over. In 1 month she lost all of her hair due to alopecia, which caused her to go into depression for 2 years.
With needed change, she committed herself to improvement. Just last year in 2020, she started making videos for students about school, which was the gateway to opening her up. From there, she understood how much she loved personal development and became a certified life coach young people during lockdown - due to the pandemic.
Now, being at the London School of Economics in the UK, she also runs her podcast ”It starts with Action”.
Enjoy the unbelievable story and immense lessons in this discussion from Presence Plumb.

Hayden Humphrey is a life coach who helps uplift people and aid them in taking control of their life. Once a people-pleaser and unpassionate about his corporate roles in life, he dove deep into his internal to shake up the “foundation of his house” and make a “script” that he was passionate about living.
As Hayden mentions, we were all given a set of scripts to live by as children. You learned about the world and about your place in it - without even questioning if it was right for you.
So, in helping himself, Hayden is now a coach that causes others to stop meandering with obscurity through life and start questioning, in order to truly start living.
Enjoy our depth-filled conversation!

Koby Wheeler had it in him since he was young…..he embodied what an entrepreneur was before it was ever popular. Lemonade stands. Selling doughnuts. Garage sales. The full nine yards.
Growing up, Koby found his way by making his own way. The path of trial and error and figure-it-out-as-you-go, he honed his skills and mindset to become one in which he can operate effectively, efficiently, and provide great creative value to others - from TEDx designs in high school, to personal ideations and creations, to eventually creating two of his own agencies, KW Branding + Design and Lobster Ferret.
The former focuses on branding and design; the latter on digital marketing.
Take a deep dive with us as we get into the full journey of Koby Wheeler and learn many things on design, creative, and more.

Full visual story on Sharing Excess: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SmEW3C7tkLc
Since 2018, this stellar, purpose-driven, non-profit has delivered 1/2 million lbs of food at a rate of 10,000 lbs per week and conducted 3,000 total pickups.......and counting.
The pandemic has accelerated the need for sharing excess food to those who need it most, especially in the city of Philadelphia, so Sharing Excess has delivered 200,000 lbs of food since the pandemic first started.
Now, the next step is growth and scale, in order to spread the system of Sharing Excess to create global impact.
Hear what Evan had to say about the entire journey and vision in our special BTS audio of the interview we conducted for the BIGGER video.

Eric knew what he wanted to do since he was young…..or at least he had an understanding of his combination of his creative side and tech side. Coming from a duality of that when growing up, Eric experienced many things that caused his storytelling perspective to be the way it is - which we discuss in full.
Formally, Eric Daniel Horn is an Executive Producer and Partner at Direct Narrative NYC. From sneaking into concerts at age 14 to shoot video for a variety of rock bands to traveling to China and experiencing a completely different culture. He has since held positions in many realms of tech and marketing, even working for companies like iHeartMedia, Microsoft and WIREWAX.

Along the way, Kylie drops some bomb lines and brings immense value within the topics of music, the legal side of music, music business, marketing, branding, Taylor Swift, and more.

(Official episode start time is around the 2:42 minute mark if you want to skip to that)
Chauncey Hawkins is a Division 1 basketball player and in 3 seasons of being at St. Francis in Brooklyn, he has eclipsed 1,000 career points. He also eclipsed 1,000 career points in high school while at Saint Joseph Regional and led the 2016 team to a Jamboree County Championship in Bergen County, NJ.
Chauncey is diligent and focused on being the best basketball player he can be. Its been that way since he was first introduced to the game at a young age.
In this episode, we started off talking about being an underdog. Others might see that as a hinderance, but Chauncey capitalizes on it and uses it as fuel when his actions do they talking. We also discuss training, mindset, what actually drives Chauncey, and more.
This one is close to the heart because Chauncey is a good friend. We met in high school and played basketball together. His growth has been evident and steady since then.
Enjoy this one as we dive deep and get personal.

Marco Sandoval is a DJ, entrepreneur, promoter, and radio show host. As of recently, he also became the newest member of the Recording Academy.
Marco is focused, driven, and chasing his dreams on the daily. It's paying off too. Like was mentioned in the video "reputation is repetition".....and Marco is putting in his reps.
Since a young age it has been that way. It's even more special, and makes even more sense, that Marco has always had the lineage behind him that was super engrossed in music and entertainment. Marco's grandfather was the winner of many Latin Music Awards. However, the Grammy he always wanted was out of reach.
So, if Marco didn't have enough drive already, there's even more of a reason to strive for the highest peak on the mountain.
Enjoy this one as we dive deep.

AASW (Accessible and Affordable Sanitation for Women) exists to give all women proper access to menstrual hygiene and to educate them about the menstrual process.
Ziyaan Virji started this initiative because his mom didn't have proper access to menstrual hygiene. Now, his initiative has given over 1,000 reusable menstruation pads. The goal this year alone is to surpass 2,500. And eventually, Ziyaan and his entire group of volunteers want to serve all the 500 million women around the world who don't have proper access to reusable menstruation pads - let alone any menstrual hygiene products.
There is a ton in this interview/Q&A about the founding process, raising money, and purpose.

The last time you heard from Riley and the Soar team was earlier this year when we joined them to document their trips to Detroit for the Forbes Under 30 Summit and Miami for the Super Bowl. If you want to check out one of the videos, click the link below:

It was particular important to talk to Riley during this quarantine Q&A considering the time we are living in and what we are going through as a society. Riley and his team at Soar are working on an immersive AR/VR platform that can have many different use cases from artist performing concerts to business holding virtual conferences.
It was great to have Riley answer some questions about building a team, scaling a startup, lessons from his experience in the entrepreneurial realm, and things ahead for Soar.
Enjoy this one and let us know what things helped you most in this episode.

The last time you heard from Tanishq was when we made a short featured film about him in 2019. If you want to see the film, check out the link below:
Tanishq Joshi: A Dream BIG Spotlight: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0B6mec15xQ
Tanishq Joshi (TJ) is a person who leads life with passion and always works to improve his craft. Since we first met him and did a Dream BIG Spotlight on his life, it was evident that he was in his path of purpose.
Now, one year later, we caught up and answered questions from others to see how Tanishq's continually walk in his path of purpose has been. He fills us in on his time in LA, some stories about dancing in the LA studios, stories from the past 6 months, improving one's craft, different dance styles, and next moves ahead (somewhat secret for now).
Enjoy!

In 2018, Colin was progressing well with his yoyo career and in life. Two years later, he is still doing the same.
During this quarantine Q&A, we discussed recent accomplishments with Colin like being elected an Advisory Board Member with the National Yo-Yo League, developing his multimedia company centered around the yoyo community called Scales Collective, and launching two successful rounds of his own yoyo.
As we now have time to reflect while being inside due to quarantine, this IG live encompassed some of that fun reflection, while also getting some updates on Colin's plans for the future years ahead.

Last time we talked with Sophie she was building TableTalk Global and gave a hint about the transition that was going to happen with the organization.
Now, one year later, even though TableTalk is still blossoming, Sophie is now focusing her same mission within The Conversationalist.
In a concise version, The Conversationalist is a place that allows the opportunity for the next generation to have the support and space for important conversations that seem to be veered away from by most in the modern era.
So, during this quarantine Q&A, we discuss all these updates with Sophie, how she is dealing with this quarantined time, and The Conversationalist's next moves.

Bishoy's mantra of patience, perspective, purpose holds especially true during this time of unknowingness and difficulty. This episode is great because it ties in everything we discussed in Ep #29 pertaining to Bishoy's story, his experience with obstacles, and his experience with writing.
During this quarantine Q&A, we delve into the topics of writing a book, the steps to manage the book making and book selling process, and observations during this time of isolation.
Bishoy has been through his fair share, and more, of difficulty in life. So, his current perspective as of now is insightful and applicable for all.

During this brief quarantine Q&A, Kelly talks more about mindset than fitness, which is absolutely perfect. Before diving into anything fitness related, it is important to have a strong foundation within your subconscious.
Furthermore, the important thing is that this isn't only limited to fitness too. This applies to all of personal growth in life. So, during this discussion we see where Kelly is at with her mindset, changes she is making, things she is observing and learning during this quarantined time, how she is adjusting to life in San Diego with the recent move, and a full update on her goals (hint: Tik Tok).

Last time we got together with Tim was during this time two years ago. Here is the full episode and interview from 2018 if you want to check it out:

During this quarantine Q&A, Tim gave us updates on his new direction within music and things he is observing during this abnormal, interesting, and special time.
As Tim alludes to during this live, it is always understandable to change or pivot in different directions for personal or professional reasons because you have new knowledge or interests that cause your awareness to expand - which causes you to change.
Tim also mentions that this is an opportune time to pick up a new skill. It doesn't have to be a life long devotion. But you never know where initial curiosity can take you if you simply dabble in something new.

As Dave puts it, "In most companies, there is a visionary and an integrator. Will is the visionary. I am the integrator."
Dave and Will have a special bond and with that bond, and with their team at REC Philly, they are forging a unique path to fulfill a vision they first had for artists, musicians, and all-around creatives. It has been more than a decade of many realizations that have accumulated to this moment for both Dave and Will. From managing artists in college and throwing parties in frats, to building their first facility in North Philly and then recently at 9th and Market - the Fashion District of Philadelphia.
It has been a beautifully, strenuous journey in building out this dream and vision, but Dave and Will are grateful for the entire process. In this episode, they dive into their story, the lessons learned along the way, and advice for everyday entrepreneurs and creatives like yourself.

You'll feel it in this video. You'll definitely notice it in person too.
Over the past couple of years, Nick Nanakos has taken his confidence to bout with entrepreneurship (even dropping out of college at age 22). In doing so, he has built a seemingly unbreakable heart for his company Truck Bux. His experience in sports and entrepreneurship go hand in hand and in this episode we dive into topics revolving around those exact things and many other values that lay the foundation to live a good life.
Truck Bux is a platform that brings people to food trucks and food trucks to people. With recent successes and their launch of food delivery, Truck Bux is one to watch....... as a blueprint for learning and for utter admiration.
Does something seem different about this episode? Well, there's a reason for that.
This episode is an exclusive, new segment called "Founder Series", where we interview entrepreneurs making substantial waves, building amazing things, and as always...............improving themselves as much as possible.

"Entrepreneurship is not running a startup itself, it's a mindset." Danish Dhamani has the mindset. He definitely has the skill too.
Over the past several years, Danish has developed himself to the highest degree and in doing so he has been the lead architect in creating Orai, a personal AI speech coach. In this episode we talk about self-development, the criteria around making a great product, trying many things, being vulnerable, asking for help, intuition, hard work, and the rough edges of entrepreneurship.

Dap Talk Friday is a short, brief episode that will be posted on Friday's in which Anthony D'Apolito III, Creator of Dream BIG & Co, talks about a variety of topics. It is concise and it gets to the grit of the message.
5 questions that will help in assisting you to stay on course:
1) Is this action in line with my identity and will it bring me closer to who I want to become?
2) Is this within my control?
3) If habits create behavior, behavior creates action, and life is the culmination of our actions (and thoughts), what are my current habits?
4) What are my priorities? What is most important at this moment?
5) Do my actions match my ambition? Am I mindful and practicing of my self-love?
If you liked this episode, take a screenshot of it on your phone/tablet/computer, repost it on social media, use the hashtag #DapTalkFriday, and tag us @dreambigandco Let's connect and grow together.
Patience. Perspective. Purpose.
Along with Bishoy's mantra, we also discussed topics consisting of obstacles, focus, sacrifice, celebrating the small wins, the process, big goals, diligence, perseverance, and more.
As Bishoy says, "The comeback is always greater than the setback." Bishoy has had his fair share of obstacles and setbacks in life. But as he says in this episode, they are more so gifts of opportunity to grow and learn. Born in Egypt, diagnosed with Leukemia (more specifically called ALL) at the age of 3, moving to the US with his family at a young age, growing within his career path, and running ultra races, has given Bishoy a unique perspective. Those are things that have equipped Bishoy to take on any barrier in life.
And Bishoy continues to take strides to new levels like becoming the #1 fundraiser in the country for the NYC Marathon in 2018, giving speeches, growing mentally and physically, becoming an author with the release of his new book, and whatever is yet to come.

Dap Talk Friday is a short, brief episode that will be posted on Friday's in which Anthony D'Apolito III, Creator of Dream BIG & Co, talks about a variety of topics. It is concise and it gets to the grit of the message.
"In this episode, we discuss the importance and invaluable opportunity of being lost and unsure in life. Whether you don't have a set in stone purpose YET, whether you're veering from it, or your mind is a completely blank slate, it's okay. To be lost is to be found again. As the great Oprah Winfrey says, “We lose ourselves to find ourselves again.”
It's the once heavily induced drug addict or alcoholic that finds renewal through recovery.
It's the legendary free climber Tommy Caldwell who reaches the pinnacle of his own success in climbing the dawn wall of El Capitan after a divorce left him emotionally stricken.
It's you battling your own insecurities, doubts, fears, and worries that finds rejuvenation after this podcast and much personal action.
In order to be sure again, we must first be unsure. In order to find ourselves, we must first be lost.
Strip yourself from the norm of the negative connotation of the unknown. Rather have the fascination and curiosity of an explorer. Venture through being unsure with a true fascination because not only do we learn the most through that, but we truly come out of the other end of this dark tunnel with vigor, vivacity, and clarity in hand.
So, whatever stage you are at in this life and whatever realm of difficulty you find yourself trodding through, rest assured that you will be okay. Start by applying the best remedy of all: silence. Come to grips with where you are at. Acknowledge all that you feel and all the emotions that boil to the surface. Dig a little deeper. Once you fully embrace that you are unsure, you can take the progression to be sure of all you have to give in this life."

No matter your position, affiliation, or standing in life, this conversation will resonate with you. As Marcus has said in one of his songs, "Age is a number, skin is a color, what matters is soul." That's what we are after and that is what we strive for. To understand ourselves, each other, and soul on a deeper level. The topics we discuss range from a pool of things such as, external pressure, intention, love for one's craft, purpose and Marcus' work thus far, his upcoming album 25%, humility, empathy, ego, spirituality, volition, and future aspirations.
As for Marcus Charles himself, he is from Rockland County where his main objectives are becoming the best artist possible and the best individual possible. Since the age of 12, he has developed a deep rapture and passion for music production. In taking the untraditional route, he continues to evolve in his own way, which allows him to shed light on many things. To date he has released two albums: "On a Hill, In the Trees" and "Kill Mode.". He has another one releasing this summer called "25%".
Some of his lyrical golden nuggets that are a testament to his intellect, creativity, and talent:
"This is all a game of sacrifice, what would you do to live in paradise."
"If you jump they call you coward, if you don't they call you coward."
"I'm after something deeper. The stroke a little finer, when you're painting Mona Lisa's."

Topics discussed: Self-awareness, confidence, discipline, ego, depleting the ego, exposing oneself to blind spots, strengths and weaknesses, purpose, passion, love, veracity, spirituality, inner improvement, humility, and more.
Daniel Williams a.k.a Marquel brought his best to this episode. From the beginning to the end, we dove super, super deep into a variety of topics. The great thing is Marquel has a sort of heightened spirtual sense and experiences in his life that gives him a unique perspective to talk about the topics listed above. It wasn't always that way though. He had to do some digging into his soul in order to find the thing that he truly loves, and he still is (by the way, Marquel is 21 years old). To give you some context, one of his routines is meditating three times per day. So, he truly did the work and continues to live by his word.
All in all, the DMV (DC, Maryland, Virginia) native is on his way to spread his words and pursue his mission through the singing that he does and the beautiful songs that he records. As you will hear in the beginning of our conversation, Roses is played in the background, which is a new song he released.

"Empathy is a topic that has been in the spotlight a lot lately. So, I want to shine the headlights on it, as well. Not only is empathy a key characteristic to understanding others, but it is also crucial to understanding yourself. You can only do great work and be a better person by knowing yourself better. As a forward looking statement, empathy is truly one thing that will help elevate this world forward and it starts with one person at a time. One listener (like you) at a time."

"Reading is like oxygen for me and it is one of the main pillars of learning in my life. In this DTF, it was aimed at being more personal by answering some questions revolving around: why I read, when I read, my all-time favorite books, and the books I have on deck. On top of that, some resources for reading were mentioned. The links to those are below."

Sam is a purpose-driven, passionate woman who continues to conquer life and evolve as an individual. At a young age, Sam found herself without a true purpose and she wasn't fulfilled.

Now, Sam finds herself as an entrepreneur, life-coach, and helping others everyday. She has a brand of personal empowerment called The Prosperous Pursuit.

Rob is at a good place in his life right now. Even though things can become difficult at times, it is definitely worth it for him. Rob has truly been the epitome of "someone following their dreams". Through the ebbs and flows of life, he left the corporate life and now finds himself meeting someone new everyday (sometimes up to 4 people a day). He has set out on a quest to meet 10,000 people. No time frame. No rush. Just him, the world, and the beauty of human connection. So far Rob has met over 2200 people in 2 + years (I was #2203). He has been featured in the Philadelphia Mag, Philadelphia Citizen, Philadelphia Weekly, multiple podcasts, and even got the chance to talk to Ryan Seacrest. Thank you Rob! Through each day you are truly bringing the world closer together one person at a time!

"Throughout life your outside circumstances will change and unknown things will arise. You will have small achievements and small failures. You will have chances to celebrate and chances to dwell. You will have chances to be upset or overly happy. You will have opportunities to give up or keep going. But, in the midst of all that goes on in life and in your journey, you must stay grounded mentally. You must deploy the middle mindset. That is staying in the middle and in moderation, no matter what happens on the outside or external. The mind, ego, and other emotions will tempt you and trap you into a different way of thinking. But, you must stay strong and always be disciplined to stay in the middle when inside your own head. It will allow you to go far in this journey to the unknown. "

Nick is someone who has been making radically changes in his life. His actions are more intentional and represent his "most true, authentic self", as Nick would put it. His mindset is one that can be related to, as well. In saying that, I know that many of you will enjoy this conversation as we touch on vulnerability, authenticity, self-awareness, goals, Nick being bipolar, how he is handling that through self awareness, letting go in life, travel, accepting discomfort, and more.

"What do pain, ego, laziness, and insecurity have in common? They will always be amongst us throughout our lives. It is inevitable that we will have to deal with these things. In saying that, we need to develop the mindset and action to approach these things so that they will benefit us, NOT corrode us. "

Timmy is someone I knew I needed on this podcast because what he has done as a rapper and in his life so far is phenomenal. As you will hear on episode #9, he has a great story, mindset, and character about him.
He has a massive following around his music and life . But complacency is not in his vocabulary. He has a lot of unlocked achievements waiting for him. As the quote goes: "Not if, but when."
You can find Timmy and follow his future projects and progression on social media, Youtube, and music platforms @tim_brabston

"Balance is something that I have been heavily focusing on as of lately. Sometimes I get so caught up in my ambitions and aspirations that it causes other things in my life to be effected. Throughout life we can all lose our balance, as well. That is why I wanted to talk about this story in which Paulo Coelho puts a spotlight on one of the most important things in life: balance. Thank you Paulo Coelho."

That was Colin Beckford. He is unique and has an interesting story. Last time I interviewed Colin was for our blog. But on episode #8, I had the opportunity to sit down and talk to him. We dove into topics about his yo-yoing career, travel experience, life lessons, future goals, and more.

"On this Dap Talk Friday, we talk about a personal story of mine. Stories are a great way to fully understand something better. So I thought sharing this story with you would help you understand how important it is to learn from older people. Our elders have experience and knowledge that is more valuable than any video we will every watch."

We fully emphasize dreaming BIG but it is just as crucial to make a plan and take massive action. Often times in life people have dreams but never execute on them. In the end, taking action is the most important part to achieving any dream.

In this episode we take a look into what Elon Musk is doing and what we can learn from him. We look at his dreams, aspirations, imagination, and its rippling effect on others.
Elon Musk is someone who embodies what we focus on here at Dream BIG. His vision for a better world is something we should admire. His "unrealistic" goals are something we should apply to our lives.
