The Power of Mentors (and Why You Need One Right Now) with Scott Jeffrey Miller

To go far—in business or in life—you have to lean on the knowledge and experience of those who’ve been where you want to go. That’s what mentorship is all about.

Easier said than done, though. People are busy—especially successful ones. But what if we told you that you can find all the mentors you need without them even knowing who you are?

Scott Jeffrey Miller is a speaker, author, and podcast host with over 25 years in the leadership development industry. His new book Master Mentors Volume 2 is a compilation of thirty transformative insights from the greatest minds he’s had the honor to interview on his podcast. He’s learned not only what great mentors have to teach, but also how to put their insights into practice with what he calls “informal mentorship.” We discuss the ins and outs of mentorship, how to find the right mentor for you, and how you can be a mentor to others.

How Getting Radically Curious Can Help Us Reshape the World with Seth Goldenberg

When you’re setting big, audacious goals, you first need to ask yourself some big questions: What do you want out of life? How will you make an impact on the world?

Seth Goldenberg is the author of Radical Curiosity, where he shares a practice that he believes will lead to incredible transformations in your life. The problem is that most of us have been taught to stop being curious. To stop asking questions, and to just do what’s expected. But you can’t live an outstanding life while doing things the way they’ve always been done.

We have an interesting conversation about what it means to be curious, how to ask big questions, and how those questions can inform the direction and impact of your business.
