So one of the things you talk about in... Well, actually, Expert Secrets, but I think it... I think they mention it... She kind of mentions it in this book, too, is, like, creating belief by, like, looking up to somebody. And, like... If you can't see it, if like nobody else has done it, it's hard for you to have people to kind of like imagine it and ingrain it.
It's like, who do you, like, for me, I look up at, I'm like, who do I want to be? Like, what business do I want? I'm like, okay, cool. Like you and your books. Like, I want to be like that type of bit here. And then like for Katie Richards, it's another one. I'm like being a powerful person just in general. Like, okay, like these are like the people that I like look up to.
And I'm like, okay, like that's what I'm going towards. So I'm like, for you, who are those people like in your life that you like look up to and you're like, okay, like that's, That's because I feel like the higher you get, and I mean, you're not all the way up the ladder, right? Like there's still plenty more, but like you're way above where the average person is going to get to.
The average person has a lot of people they could look up to. Like you, there's a lot less options. I feel like it's like, who are those people that like you look up to and go, okay, like that's what I'm trying to be more like, or that's where I learned my lessons from.
Yeah. Like one consistent person, like the same person on and off stage.
Like there's certain people that, Like you just know, like you meet them and they're just, they're genuine all the way through. Right. I try to think like Catherine Jones, right. For example, like she's awesome. Right. We had dinner, I had dinner with her and, um, I had dinner with her and some friends.
Her and some friends when I was in Utah last. And, like, I've had her as a client. I've watched her on Space Station Funnel Hacking Live. I've, like, had dinner with her. And it's, like, it is the same person. Right? So cool. And, like, when you – and there are people like that. And they're rare.
It really does because it takes away the trust factor.
So what's interesting is one of my biggest reservations about Tony before, like, you, Final Hack of the Live, was actually the thing that, like, warmed me up to Tony. Mm-hmm. because I didn't really know a whole lot. Like I'd never experienced Tony. Like I have like a funnel hiking lab or like anything like that. Like I so crazy.
Like you walk into the room when he's talking and it's like, you feel the energy.
It is insane. Like everyone like tells you about it, but like, you don't really believe it until you experience it. And I remember actually it was in Orlando. Uh,
the first time like when he was down there or whatever and I remember he came like he was in the like I was in the room when he entered and like energy obviously just like when anybody walks on stage was like you know prepped up but then like he just went into his normal talking and I remember leaving the room and like most people like you walk in and you feel it and I remember like opening that door and like shutting it and like
the whole, like my whole body like shifted out of this high energy state, just low energy state. And I felt like if I was in that room, I could literally go forever. Right. Like it was just this nonstop source of energy. But what's interesting about Tony is like, Tony doesn't really talk about God, which is super interesting. Like, I don't know what faith Tony is.
And maybe, maybe he's talked about it and like, you know, something like that. And so for me, like one of the biggest struggles that I had because we'll like growing up and like when I first left the house, when I first got into entrepreneurship, I like really wrestled with God. Right. Especially, you know, like,
going through the death of my brother, like was actually ironically the thing that brought me back to God. But like, I really, really wrestled with that. And so for Tony, it was like, he's got all this energy and he's connecting to this higher source. And it's like talking about all these things, but like, he never, like he never ties it to anything.
Like he never gives credit to, well, in my story, I'm telling myself, you know, at the time, like he's never given credit to like this higher source.
thing like where's that all come from and then like the more i got to know tony not personally but like through his work and like they're watching his videos and like seeing my phone hiking live i'm like i don't know what it is that he believes i've never sat down and if i ever get to interview him i'm absolutely asking him that question but like whatever that is i don't think it's possible to be incongruent because it's like it's i don't know it's it's not of earth almost it's like it's you're tapping into something that isn't like in order to operate at that level you can't be selfish like you know what i mean
Do you sense that with him at all?
40 years like it's actually interesting super interesting you say that so literally so every tuesday i meet with katie right we have our one-on-one call and we talk for an hour and one of the the topics of conversation was i was like katie we were actually talking about like getting ready for this interview i was like i don't feel nervous at all right and i'm like and i'm getting so many texts and dms whatever like oh my gosh are you nervous like what do you mess up
And like, like so many, like so many different things. Right. And I'm like, I don't feel any of that. Right. Like, I feel like this is just like, all right, cool. I'm flying out to wrestle. We're going to hang out. It's going to be great. And I'm like, so why, why, like why is everybody else telling me I should be nervous, right? Like why is that a thing, right?
