Tweetable Quotes“Just make a list of the places you want to speak and reach out and ask them, ‘What do I have to do to be a speaker here?’ And, that’s such a simple concept, but it profoundly changed my approach from let me redo my logo, and let me redo my website, and let me become a best-selling author, and let me land a TED Talk to just making a list and reaching out to people and asking to speak there. And that’s what I’ve been doing ever since.” (10:55) (Majeed)
“I think it’s a testament to the power of the individual’s voice and the platforms we have available to us to broadcast that one man [Joe Rogan] can be more powerful than I’m assuming many of the major networks combined.” (22:15) (Majeed)
“Really what I am certain of is the fact that each person that I’ve interviewed has a deeper relationship. I’m gonna interview someone or speak to someone’s group, that’s the beginning of a lifelong partnership, ideally. I’m connecting to their world and their community forever, from this point forward.” (31:58) (Majeed)
“When I wanted to be a motivational speaker, I thought, ‘How do I figure out how to get paid speaking engagements? And then I discovered that I was getting clients by accident. These were people who were seeing my speech and coming up to me afterwards and asking me questions like, ‘Can I hire you to do a project? Can I hire you to train my team? Can I hire you to be my coach? And so, I discovered that speaking is actually a great marketing platform.” (36:50) (Majeed)

Tweetable Quotes“And I think it helped me in general about working with teams because everybody has their job and everybody knows what they’re supposed to do.

Tweetable Quotes“So, in the East, that responsibility is on you. You’re the Divine. You are in the seat of the Creator. What are you gonna do with it? And, because you are the Creator, who you are is intrinsically evolution. So you are the whole and you are separate.” (16:39) (Cate)
“If we actually look at the habits of modern culture - or what I call conventional culture - the habits of conventional culture leads to chronic inflammation which leads to chronic disease which is the number one killer worldwide.” (24:48) (Cate)
“The people who are already turned on got more turned on. There are a few people who are getting turned on who got more turned on. The problem was that the narrative in the media globally was the message that you’re the victim of a virus, which is largely known as Germ Theory.” (30:39) (Cate)
“These habits that re-wild us are the ones that really turn on our physiology and our neuroplasticity. They’re called positive stressor habits. Not all stress is the same. Some stress is when you do the hard thing and that hard thing makes you smarter and more able to do hard things in your life, which really changes the outlook of your future.” (44:39) (Cate)
“Urine therapy goes way back. The Buddha talked about it. It’s in the three main ancient Ayurvedic texts from about 2,000 years ago. It’s one of those things that once you’re in the know and you get it, you see the entire world differently.” (1:08:30) (Cate)

Tweetable Quotes“I think British people are very sarcastic as well. That’s one thing the Americans can quite get from us unless they’ve been in the company of Brits for a while. So, we have three traits. We are self-deprecating, sarcastic and we drink like a fish.” (12:10) (Sam)
“The businesses I did after came about by chance. I sold a business to Topshop, which is a female clothing retailer aimed at teenagers in the UK. It came out of my daughter's need to find cheap clothing from her budget that we gave her. She was trying to maximize her budget and I thought, ‘I can write a real-time pricing tracker for her.’ So, I did. And out of that came another business.” (32:39) (Sam)
“We’re not a music radio station. We’re more of a talk radio station. We have shows on wine, parenting, books. So, we don’t expect someone to listen seven to seven. They dip in and dip out. It means we can build communities and tribes within each show.” (39:05) (Sam)
“I get bored quickly. Three years is probably the limit of my interest in something. If it’s not continuously moving forward, if it stagnates after two or three years, I’ll move on.” (41:32) (Sam)
“I think PR companies and brand agencies are beginning to wake up to the potential reach and the vertical communities that are being created around podcasts.” (51:04) (Sam)

Tweetable Quotes“It actually took a while to embrace the idea of calling myself an entrepreneur. I kinda remember being afraid of telling people that. For some reason there was an intimidation with that role.” (17:51) (Chris)
