MY 7-DAY COURSE IS LIVE!
 

Do you ever feel like there is an untapped creative potential in your life, just below the surface, waiting to be unlocked? Let's unleash it together in only 7 days!

I am beyond excited to announce that I have officially launched a 7-day course called Supercharge Your Creativity in partnership with Insight Timer.

If you feel something magical inside your heart longing to be expressed in the world, this course is for you. Maybe it’s a new project, business, book, podcast, course, relationship, career, family, or something else.

Maybe you’re already working on something but it’s moving too slowly, or maybe you are feeling stuck or overwhelmed by the idea of sharing your creations with the world. Either way, this course is built to bring you back into the magic of your own creative mojo.

Each day of this course we will connect with a new spiritual power source to rekindle the clarity, confidence and momentum of your unique creative spark.

This course will also deepen your relationship with the tremendous wisdom and love that lives within your own heart. By the end of the 7 days, you will feel reunited with your creative dreams, while also feeling grounded in self-compassion and the loving patience needed to put the work in.

It was important to me to make this course as accessible as possible. The cost is only $59—or FREE if you already have an Insight Timer Plus membership. In terms of timing, it works out to less than 20 mins per day.

A huge thank you to Insight Timer for making this possible and for encouraging me to create and share this course on their platform. If you are unfamiliar with Insight Timer they are one of the world’s largest meditation apps and honestly my favourite platform to make content with. There is so much great free content on that app and their community is incredible.

My First Paid Talk ($1000!!)
 

This is my first paid talk. SpeakerSlam is paying me $1000 to share my story about taking photos of strangers. How freaking awesome is that?!

I thought about playing it super cool and not making a big deal about getting paid to do a talk. There’s a voice inside saying “Dude, it’s tacky to talk about money. Don’t be that guy.”

But you see it’s not about money, it’s about momentum. It’s about breaking a limiting belief that I’m not actually a speaker worthy of getting paid to share my story or my wisdom.

SpeakerSlam has been changing lives for years now with their incredible monthly speaking events, where they give anyone with a story an opportunity to share it with the world. Their speakers have gone crazy viral in the past and their talks have been seen by close to 500 MILLION humans world wide.

Many lives have been changed. Many book deals, speaking tours, and new businesses have launched because of SpeakerSlam. Don’t believe me—ask Gina, Mike, Malcolm, Parul, Marcos, just to name a few.

SpeakerSlam also knows that the next level is to help aspiring speakers get paid for their talks. They already have a robust training program to help new speakers level-up their brands to stand out in the competitive professional speaking world.

And now they are taking it even further by putting their money where their mouths are and throwing their own conference and paying the speakers themselves.

That’s how committed SpeakerSlam is to developing aspiring speakers.

I know there are many humans in my community that are aspiring speakers, authors and thought-leaders. If you have never heard of SpeakerSlam I highly recommend checking them out.

If you happen to be in the Toronto area on November 19th come join me at the SpeakerSlam Momentum conference and hear my talk on following your heart, listening to the whispers of the Universe and building your legacy.

There are many other incredible speakers (that I know personally) who will rock your socks. You are sure to leave this event feeling new creative momentum and inspiration to bring your own story to the world.
