A little more about today’s guest:

This very personal chat with Michelle Bridges first appeared on this show way back in 2015.

I’d just emceed a conference in which she was a keynote speaker and boy, did she rock the stage. Not only does she have a great story to tell about how she’s built such a strong and profitable personal brand; but she’s a huge proponent of not letting perfection get in the way of productivity.

Michelle’s CV is pretty damn impressive. Her TV appearances include being the host of The Biggest Loser, she’s written ten books on living healthy, she has her own clothing and vitamin range, and a fantastic online weight loss course called The 12-Week Body Transformation.

And it all started out the back of her beaten up old car, as you’re about to hear.

Here’s what caught my attention from my chat with Michelle Bridges:
#JFDI - I love Michelle’s approach to getting stuff done. Procrastination is evil … so taking the attitude of being productive over being perfect is, I would argue, world’s best practice.


Stop looking at the scoreboard. Instead, put your head down and bum up, and focus on the job at hand.


Keep fit or get fit. As business owners, one of the first things to get ignored when growing our businesses is our health and well-being … which is pretty stupid, right? When I lost 30KG a few years ago, my business literally doubled.

But the marketing gold doesn’t stop there, in this episode you’ll also discover:
Another motivated listener shares four marketing strategies that are working for her, and in return I give her a prize or three!
And past guest Riz Syed shares how appearing on this show got him some positive TV coverage
