That Moment with Daymond John

Sitting down with hip hop legend Sway Calloway, I was eager to dive into his origin story and the pivotal moments that led him to become the iconic radio and TV broadcaster he is today. Sway takes me back to his early days hustling as an aspiring rapper alongside his high school friend and producer King Tech in Oakland. They faced obstacle after obstacle trying to get their music out there - but Sway was determined, resourceful and brimming with belief in his talents.
 
He talks about the hustler spirit instilled in him, pressing up their own tapes and vinyl to sell just to be heard. I'm inspired when he shares the creative ways they pushed forward independently, before later getting a sobering glimpse of the major label machine. Sway saw gaps in the industry and rather than feel deterred, he found ways to educate himself and forge his own path.
 
The conversation shifts as Sway traces his transition from aspiring rapper to pioneering host of the nationally-syndicated Wake Up Show on radio and later TV. He understood the power of delivering authentic information through a mainstream platform. Ultimately it's Sway's connection with people that propelled him into legend status.
 
Though much of his fascinating story remains untold, Sway leaves me with some hard-earned wisdom about longevity in this industry. He embodies the resilience, vision and creativity that it takes to succeed on your own terms. His journey is a testament that persistence and authenticity ultimately win. I'm grateful to call him friend, role model and consequence of the hustler spirit.

Motivation Moment - Necessity is the Mother of Reinvention

Mentorship is the gift that keeps on giving, and I feel so incredibly blessed to call Jay Abraham my mentor. Not only has Jay increased the bottom line for over 10,000 clients, he’s given them (and me!) the tools to recognize how to continue to do that when he steps back. With features in The New York Times, Entrepreneur Magazine, Inc Magazine and more, and recognition from Forbes as “The Real Thing” and one of the Top 5 Executive Coaches in the Country, he’s clearly someone that every struggling business owner or employee would be lucky to have on board. 
 
 
 
Some of his clients include at&t, Microsoft, Charles Schwab & Co., Weight Watchers, and General Electric, and he took that same hands-on approach that he had with each of them to this discussion.
 
 
 
Check out this all new episode to get Jay’s master playbook on:
 
 • 

Truthfully assessing what does and doesn’t work for you
 • 
 • 

Testing out different strategies for achieving sales (with as little risk as possible)
 • 
 • 

Identifying problems with a unique perspective that makes you the leading authority on finding solutions
 • 
 • 

Building massive marketing databases and taking advantage of all forms of marketing
 • 
 • 

Securing the lowest customer acquisition cost for your business
 • 
 • 

Tapping into mentorship opportunities - both as a mentor and a mentee
