Curiosity alone won't change the world, but going Beyond Curious™ will.
The people that shape society are the explorers — the brave adventurers willing to take a voyage into the unknown to satisfy their curiosity, fulfill their purpose, and bring their ideas to life.
This is a show for those people.
The people that are relentlessly curious about themselves, their impact, their potential, the people they love, and the world around them.
The people who are CONSTANTLY asking themselves, “What if…”, “I wonder…”, “Why not…”, and pushing the boundaries of what is possible for themselves and for society at large.
Join me (Brandon Fong) as every week I interview pioneering adventurers who have dared to go Beyond Curious™.
Past guests have included NYT Bestselling authors, main stage TED speakers, 7-9 figure entrepreneurs...
... and even an occasional Olympian, NFL player, FBI hostage negotiator, hypnotist, drug dealer turned (legal) millionaire, decorated air force pilot, illusionist, Hollywood legend, Shark from Shark Tank, and even the man that invented the cell phone!
I'm grateful to say that the show achieved a top 2% global ranking out of the 2.8M+ global podcasts indexed by Listen Notes in 1 year after launching.
To hear the full story of how Beyond Curious™ was born and learn about the vision for the brand, listen to episode #140!

#154: How To Get 29+ Hours Of Work Done In A Day By Leveraging A World Class EA w/ Ethan Bull
Imagine if there was a magic machine that empowered you to clone yourself.
Two of your brains floating around… getting important stuff done more efficiently so that you can spend more time doing what you love.
While there is no such machine that exists, today’s guest can show you a close alternative:
An Executive Assistant.
Now wait:
Before you say, “I’ve heard this thing about EAs and outsourcing…” give me a sec.
Before starting his own company, Pro Assisting, Ethan had an impressive career as an EA himself.
As an EA, he worked with Hollywood celebrities, the Chairman of USA Films, and even served as the director of administrative services and senior executive assistant to the CEO of Rochester Regional Health.
So when we talk about an EA, we’re talking about HIGH level EAs that command solid six-figure salaries.
In this episode, we dive deep into how to develop a relationship with a high-caliber EA, and how this could be one of the greatest ways to simplify yet amplify your life.

#150: Getting Curious About Curiosity, Curating World-Class Conversations, & How To Ask Questions That Unleash Impact w/ Brooke Casanovas
Several months ago, my friend Jhana Li (Episode #146) told me about this epic human named Brooke Casanovas.
A few weeks ago, I walk into an event and guess who I meet?
Ding ding!
Brooke and I immediately hit it off because of our shared love for curiosity and asking effective questions and I knew we had to bring her on the show.
Here are 3 crunchy things to look forward to in today’s episode:
1. Why Brooke walked up to someone without knowing her at an event and started a conversation around menopause… and what that has to do with creating deeper and more meaningful conversations

#149: Transforming Into Real Life “Wonder Woman” + The “5 Bucket Framework” That Can Save Your Business w/ Heather Pearce Campbell
In my mind, Heather Pearce Campbell is real life Wonder Woman.
She is a mother of two kids… and her road to motherhood wasn’t easy.
Not only did Heather nearly not survive having her daughter, she went through seven years of obstacles and trauma just to have her kids.
But Heather isn’t just a warrior with endless grit in her personal life… she’s also the same in her business life.
Heather is the founder of The Legal Website Warrior, where she is a dedicated attorney and legal coach for world-changing entrepreneurs.
In other words:
Protecting your business is Heather’s business.
Now:
Normally the whole “legal” world is something that makes you want to scream and cry (at least for me), but Heather makes the entire topic of protecting your business INCREDIBLY accessible.
You can only go as high and as far as your legal foundation lets you go.
In this episode, we dive into Heather’s story + how YOU can protect your business by setting a STRONG legal foundation.
This is a powerful episode you won’t want to miss… and listening closely may literally save your business.
