Idea To Reality

26 episodes - English - Latest episode: over 5 years ago - ★★★★★ - 28 ratings

Have you ever wondered how successful people have turned an idea into a business or lifestyle? One day they have an idea and then many years later we see them on T.V. living the life that you dream of living…being hosted on big-time interviews, traveling the world, and achieving the financial freedom that you know you can achieve!

One major thing that we do not see in these stories is the process of having the idea to actually creating the business or lifestyle around it. This is where "Idea To Reality" will be massively valuable to you as listeners. Through interviews with people who have had an idea, executed on it, and turned their dreams into a real-life business, we will help demystify the whole "building a business" process by breaking down on a micro level exactly what they did and how they did it to get to their current levels of success.

If you have an idea and don't know what to do next, have massive goals and aspirations, or are interested in the business lifestyle at all, this show is for you….I really hope you enjoy and thank you so much for listening!
