Sir Richard Branson (@richardbranson), founder and chairman of
The Virgin Group, is a world-famous entrepreneur, adventurer,
activist, and business icon. He has launched a dozen
billion-dollar businesses and hundreds of other companies.
His new autobiography, Finding My Virginity, shares the candid
details of a lifetime of triumphs and failures and provides an
intimate look at his never-ending quest to push boundaries, break
rules, and seek new frontiers.
I loved our conversation, and we covered a lot, including:
Richard's thoughts on "clean meat," block chain, and
cryptocurrency
How he's coped with dyslexia, and how his parents helped make
him resilient
Behind-the-scenes stories of deal-making, PR stunts, big
wins, and big losses
The habits (and life decisions) he's used to maintain high
energy levels for decades
How Richard masterfully caps/limits downside risk, even
though he's perceived as a risk taker
How and why he takes regular 1-2-month (sometimes longer)
breaks from alcohol
Favorite books
Lessons learned from Nelson Mandela and other mentors
And much more...
Enjoy!
This podcast is brought to you
by Ascent Protein, the best
protein I've ever tried. Ascent is the only US-based company that
offers native proteins -- both whey and micellar casein --
directly to the consumer for improved muscle health and
performance. Because the product is sourced from Ascent's parent
company, Leprino Foods -- the largest producer of mozzarella
cheese in the world -- it's entirely free of artificial
ingredients and completely bypasses the bleaching process common
to most other whey products on the market.
If you want cleaner, less processed protein, which I certainly
do, go to ascentprotein.com/tim for 20 percent off
your entire order.
This podcast is also brought to you
by WordPress.com, my go-to
platform for 24/7-supported, zero downtime blogging, writing
online, creating websites -- everything! I love it to bits, and
the lead developer, Matt Mullenweg, has appeared on this podcast
many times.
Whether for personal use or business, you're in good company
with WordPress.com — used by The New Yorker, Jay Z,
Beyonce, FiveThirtyEight, TechCrunch, TED, CNN, and Time, just to
name a few. A source at Google told me
that WordPress offers "the best out-of-the-box SEO
imaginable," which is probably why it runs nearly 30% of the
Internet. Go

get 15% off your website today!
