Today on the Hello Seven podcast, Rachel Rodgers talks to Paul Brown: a man with a BIG business mission. On paper, Paul is Real Estate Investor and Funding Coach. But at his heart, Paul is set on fixing the world's water problem. That's estimated to cost $12 billion to solve! Is that even possible?

Rachel and Paul discuss the art of scaling a business in 2024 – and how to stay on track with your business goals every step of the way. 

The two discuss:

– What's stopping you from scaling your business
– Working out your 'why' 
– Building a community
– Paul's mission  
– The current state of housing 
– Being criminally defrauded by $1.5 million!

And so much more!

Ever dreamt of turning your passion into your income stream? We’ve all been there. But what’s stopping you from actually doing it?

One person who’s turned their passion into their full time income is Jeff Jenkins. Jeff Jenkins is an award-winning content creator, travel journalist, TV host, and entrepreneur. Named one of Travel + Leisure’s 50 Notable People in Travel, he is the founder of Chubby Diaries and co-founder of Black Travel Alliance.

Rachel caught up with Jeff at the ROI summit to hear more about where his love of travel originates from, and how he’s made this hobby into an unshakable 6-figure career. 

For every year that Jeff worked as a high school choir teacher, he told himself he would quit. But he couldn’t do it until his stepfather died of a heart attack at 54. Shaken to his core, he reevaluated his life and ultimately reconnected with his childhood love for exploration. Today, he is living his dream, exploring the world, and inspiring others to do the same. So, what’s stopping you?
 
In this episode, Rachel and Jeff chat about:

- Jeff’s childhood
- The danger of limitations
- Monetization as a travel influencer
- Confidence in directing your brand
- The importance of knowing your brand
- Picking the easy path to making money
- The importance of tuning out negativity
- Why you must start now to build your dream
- Consistent branding as a magnet for opportunities
- The question that broke down Jeff’s limiting beliefs 
- Why you must learn to ask for help and build in public
- The power of community to help you reach your goals
- And other topics…
