NO Plan "B" with multimedia artist, Tiago Magro
Tiago Magro is a full-time multimedia artist who wants you to find your ultimate purpose and passion. In this episode of the Opportunity Collective, Tiago shares his inspiring journey of pursuing his passion and making it as an artist.
Tiago breaks the stereotype of the "starving artist" by demonstrating how determination and unwavering commitment can lead to success. Throughout his career, he has focused solely on his art, without any fallback plans or alternatives. If you're someone who shares this mindset or aspires to make your own dreams come true, Tiago's story will resonate deeply with you.
During our conversation, Tiago reveals the extensive time and effort it took to turn his plan "A" into a reality—a journey that spanned 15 to 20 years. He emphasizes the importance of relentlessly pursuing the next step and actively creating opportunities along the way. Tiago's experience serves as a valuable roadmap for creative entrepreneurs and emerging leaders who are eager to transform their dreams into tangible achievements.
To assist you on your own path, we have prepared a free resource called the No Plan "B" Planner.
This checklist will guide you in acquiring the supplementary skills and resources necessary to make your desired life a reality. Whether it takes two years or two decades, by intentionally checking off each item on this list, you will be empowered to achieve the life you envision.
Tiago's inspiring conversation will provide you with not only practical advice but also a deep sense of encouragement and motivation.

Mike Burns on Launching a Personal Passion Project
Mike Burns is collaborating with The Opportunity Collective!
Mike is the host of the podcast: Maybe You're Like Me where he interviews other leaders, authors, podcasters, and creatives, but instead of focusing on their persona, he just gets to know them and see if they have anything in common.
Mike is easy to chat with, and if you want to connect with him after this episode, I recommend sending him a message on his Instagram: @maybeyourelikeme
In this episode:
- Mike is taking some big swings
- We'll battle imposter syndrome when pursuing a passion project
- We ask, what is Bob Goff's middle name?
- We send matching jackets to a group of podcasters in Tennessee
If you're like Mike and want to take a big swing by launching your own passion project - whether it's a business, podcast, novel, or even joining a curling league - I've got something that might help. I've created a free Reflection Guide for Launching your Personal Passion Project to help you get started. Through a series of exercises, you'll gain clarity on what you want to launch, identify any obstacles in your way, and develop a plan to start as soon as possible.

Zach Windahl on cultivating the one trait that sets successful leaders apart
What do the most successful people in the world have in common?
They may not all be from the same place or have the same background, but they do tend to share one key trait: they're optimists.
And the good news is that optimism is something that anyone can learn.
In this episode, we're talking to Zach Windahl, an entrepreneur, author, and content creator who has made it his mission to help people see the good in the world.
Zach's journey to becoming an optimist wasn't always easy. When he was 27, he went through a difficult breakup and lost his job, which left him questioning everything. But he didn't give up. Instead, he worked on training himself to see the opportunities in every situation. Today, he's founded and sold one of the fastest-growing companies in America, is the author of a book called "See the Good," and is a popular content creator who inspires others to cultivate grace, gratitude, and optimism in their daily lives.
In this episode, Zach shares some of his tips and strategies for cultivating optimism and creating opportunities, including:
How to reverse engineer your goals to create opportunities
Why going deep is often better than going wide when you feel stuck
The importance of performing an attention audit to stay focused and motivated
Zach also recommends some of these resources to help you to start creating opportunities
Zach’s book See the Good
Undistracted by Bob Goff
Emotionally Healthy Spirituality by Peter Scazzero
