  • Father of Biohacking with Dave Asprey
    Sep 14 2024
    Welcome everyone to the "Entrepreneur Show", as we have special guest, Dave Asprey, who is known as the father of biohacking and is famous for creating bulletproof coffee and hosting the Bulletproof Radio show, which has now been renamed as the Human Upgrade Podcast. He has made significant changes in his life, losing over 100 pounds and reversing his age by more than 20 years through biohacking. As a successful entrepreneur, he has written bestselling books and created billion-dollar consumer product goods categories such as MCT oil and collagen protein. Dave has also founded a new functional coffee company called Danger Coffee. He openly discusses various topics, including health, consciousness, and psychedelics, and shares his personal journey from struggling with health issues to achieving success through hard work and dedication. So, what is biohacking? Biohacking is the practice of actively changing your environment and biology to take full control of your health and well-being. This includes managing your health, slowing down the aging process, and achieving mental peace by optimizing your body's energy production through environmental adjustments. Dave shared his personal experience of hitting rock bottom despite his professional success. He recounted a moment when his cognitive function was declining. This realization led him to explore smart drugs and nootropics, as well as seek guidance from longevity doctors. Despite his successful tech career, he ventured into blogging and founded a Consumer Packaged Goods company. Asprey's journey is a testament to addressing personal health and well-being even amid professional success while focusing on wellness and redefining longevity and health. Dave highlights the shift in perspective towards health, emphasizing the significance of having control over one's biology and energy. Health should be a priority, especially for entrepreneurs, as it directly impacts their ability to care for their families and pursue their missions. And, of course, taking care of one's health is essential for preventing illness in the future. What started this all? Well, during his studies of meditation in Tibet, he discovered that people often underestimate the importance of prioritizing longevity and health. Ignoring these aspects means operating at only half of one's potential. We discussed using marketing to persuade people of the immediate benefits of prioritizing health and longevity, especially for entrepreneurs. It's about being more present and having more energy in the present moment. Reprogramming all the emotional triggers is possible, but why not regain your energy first? Stop expending energy on thinking about food and dwelling on grudges. Once you've accomplished that, you'll realize that things that seem like major obstacles aren't as daunting. This is an important, cutting-edge strategy for entrepreneurs aiming to build billion-dollar businesses. Dave also launched an innovative brain upgrade program known as 40 Years of Zen. This program utilizes EEG neurofeedback to reprogram the brains of entrepreneurs, athletes, and celebrities, aiming to enhance their cognitive abilities. Additionally, he created, Upgrade Labs, which is a company that provides biohacking services, leveraging data and technology to optimize health and performance.

  • Profiling a Business Leader with William Salvi and David Nurse, The Mindset Specialist
    Apr 13 2024
    The CEO Series, a standout video series, is the brainchild of William Salvi, a Renowned media agency owner based in Chicago. This Emmy award-winning show stands out for its exceptional quality and its unique focus on CEOs from diverse industries. William, along with his brother Chris, initiated the series seven years ago, and for the past four years, they have been delving into the stories, roles, and mindsets of CEOs. The series kicked off with an interview with the chairman and CEO of Wintrust Bank, and since then, it has evolved, with the team constantly enhancing their interviewing techniques and the caliber of guests. The show's distinct goal is to unveil the person behind the role and brand, offering viewers a rare glimpse into the human side of business leadership often overshadowed in formal interviews. The CEO Series remains industry-agnostic but focuses on the CEOs' unique experiences and perspectives as leaders of large organizations with many stakeholders. The show's producer and host discuss the pressure CEOs face, which can cause some of them to become reclusive, seeking honest feedback rather than flattery. The CEOs featured in the show share the formative experiences that shaped them as leaders during their youth or teens. The CEO Series is an Emmy award-winning video series available on entrepreneur.com, giving successful leaders a platform to share their experiences with the world. His brother Chris and he loves interviewing prominent business individuals for our CEO series. We aim for higher-profile CEOs and brands. It's exciting to meet and talk to these people as we get to know them as individuals with their insecurities and life experiences. We challenge ourselves daily by putting ourselves in uncomfortable positions, such as meeting high-profile CEOs. It's a great way to expand our agency and network of contacts. David Nurse is an accomplished mindset specialist and a bestselling author at the Wall Street Journal. Over the past 15 years, he has worked with sports teams and corporate executives, assisting them in dominating their respective fields. David has positively impacted the lives of over 150 NBA players, whose contract earnings total a staggering $3.2 billion. He believes that highly successful people can be classified into two categories—those who value honesty and those who do not. David's expertise lies in his profound understanding of the power of the mind and how it can be used as a cheat code for success. He provides mindset tools that help individuals overcome insecurities, deal with pressure, and utilize their gifts without internal or external roadblocks. He has designed these tools to help individuals take strategic action and realize their full potential. At the Next Level Club, David works with people to help them unlock their mind's potential and achieve their goals. With his constructive guidance and mindset tools, he empowers individuals to confidently reach the next level of their abilities and pursue their dreams. There are nine action archetypes: fear of other people's opinions, inopportune, blame, test believer, distracted, scarcity mindset, perfectionist, underestimate, and imposter syndrome. To combat self-doubt, try these three tools: First, look at your hands and remember all the difficulties you've overcome. Second, remind yourself to serve others in the present moment. Finally, snap your fingers to cue your subconscious to live into the person you want to be. Remember to stop, notice, assess, and pivot when things get overwhelming. These tools can be used anytime, anywhere. [00:00:00] The CEO Series [00:06:45] William Salvi [00:13:01] CEOs are Humans too!

He praised SheTech for providing an interactive day with hundreds of mentors available to talk to, and an opportunity for young women to decide if the tech industry is something they're interested in pursuing. Cox stated that it's important to learn what you don't want to do as much as what you want to do, and SheTech offers that opportunity for young women to explore the tech industry.
