Stop Waiting For Someone Else To Take The Lead

Eric Johnson , IRONBOUND Media — Wed, 08 Feb 2023 00:00:00 -0800

Today's guest on the show is Eric Blackwell. During this episode we are going to talk about the importance of having a plan for your life. If you don't have a plan then you can't expect to realize sustainable progress. It’s easy to get paralyzed in thought when you realize how much you need to learn. Some people even decide to wait for someone else to find the answers so that they can just follow that person’s lead. That’s a gamble that none of us should be willing to take. You have to arm yourself with information so that you can take the lead in your own life. Tune in!

Today I have Demonté Frink, the owner of "Oluchi Essentials" as a guest on the show. Growth is challenging to attain without first addressing the issues that are bothering you on the inside.

The process of growth is continuous and the more you embrace it, the more impactful it will be for your life and those within your sphere of influence.

Growing Into Financial Freedom

Eric Johnson , IRONBOUND Media — Wed, 21 Sep 2022 15:05:55 -0700

Too often people try to focus on fixing perceived issues with the system instead of working on improving themselves internally. Many people fail to reach their goals simply because they have not became the person worthy of achieving their desired goal. Their habits directly contradict the ones that would allow them to be successful in pursuit of their goal(s). Today I talk about developing a growth mindset in support of your pursuit of financial freedom. We should all strive to grow into the person worthy of the life we desire. Tune in!

Are You The Problem?

Eric Johnson , IRONBOUND Media — Wed, 27 Jul 2022 00:00:00 -0700

Many times we want to blame the system and others for our shortcomings, but we never take the time to see how our actions made us fall short. It's so much easier to place blame on outside entities, however it is rare that we are completely faultless in these situations. We are just too stubborn to realize it. Tune in!

Bigger Problem, Bigger Pay!

Eric Johnson , IRONBOUND Media — Wed, 20 Jul 2022 00:00:00 -0700

Sometimes to get where you want to be in life you have to ignore the naysayers and make the decision to act on the behalf of your own best interest. Contrary to popular belief, the environment that you experienced as a child (or currently) doesn't have to define the trajectory of your life. If you want to be better you can, but it takes effort.

The Abundance Of Money

Eric Johnson , IRONBOUND Media — Wed, 15 Jun 2022 00:00:00 -0700

When it comes to money, we tend to think that it is reserved for certain people. Or we think that we are not smart enough or skilled enough to obtain the money that we desire. This couldn’t be further from the truth. I have Andre Truss, a Marine Corps Veteran, United States Naval Academy graduate, who as a hungry entrepreneur has developed successful businesses within the fields of real estate, mortgages and the restaurant industry here to discuss this concept in detail today. Tune in because you don’t want to miss this.

Regardless if you are an expert therapist or a stay-at-home parent, the money system operates the same. Discussing everyday experiences creates a space to learn and grow together as a community.
