Live interview from stage: Mrs. Tani Austin has been named the Female Philanthropist of the Year and honored at the First Ladies Summit at the UN General Assembly. I was recently in Las Vegas and interviewed Mrs. Tani Austin live on stage at a conference. Mrs. Austin is the co-founder of the Starkey Hearing Foundation. Her husband, Bill Austin, is the founder of Starkey Hearing Technologies. Tani travels the world and has helped more than 1 million people receive the gift of hearing thanks to her Foundation.
 
Mrs. Austin is as down to earth as it gets yet rubbing elbows with former presidents and folks like the Dali Lama are a regular occurrence in her world. I have a great deal of respect for her fierce honesty and willingness to roll up her sleeves and make an impact. Our conversation covers many areas and topics - if you’re wondering how to inject a little more purpose in your life - you’ll find this helpful. And if you have a live event coming up and want to do a live Why Not Now? interview on stage, keep me in mind.

Ryan is the author of many books. One in particular, titled Ego is the Enemy, has had a big impact on me. Ryan talks about the difference between being or doing. "Do you want to be the important person or do you want to do the important things?" If you currently lean more toward the "To Be" camp but you want to be in the "To Do" camp, you will learn some specific things you can do to make the shift in this episode. Ryan also tells us about the Why Not Now? moments that led him to intentionally drop out of college and the corporate world. It's tough to sum up Ryan Holiday in a couple of sentences. Let's just say he has a very unique and special mind. This is one of my favorite Why Not Now? conversations because I learned so much.

Ryan has a new book out soon called Conspiracy. You can pre-order now.

Russ Perry shares how we can live life on an easier level of difficulty. He believes you have to be some form of an addict to become an entrepreneur. Whether that's being addicted to your business, results, recognition, success or alcohol and other substances. In this episode, Russ talks very openly about his path to sobriety, how his addiction almost imploded his life and ruined his marriage - but it didn't. What he managed to do was change his family tree and change his life. As a result of him gaining sobriety and clarity, Russ has gone from freelancing to growing a company called Design Pickle that now generates a half a million dollars a month. Russ's new book, The Sober Entrepreneur is refreshing. It's the ultimate life hack.

You can get Russ's book free on Amazon Kindle the week this episode airs. Or check out Russ Perry's book "The Sober Entrepreneur" on Amazon, visit SoberEntrepreneur.com to get the first chapter for free, and follow Russ on Instagram @RussPerry.

Darren Rovell is an Emmy award winning sports journalist legend, especially on twitter. With a following of more than 2 million people, and counting, he shares his polarizing personality and snackable sports content all-day everyday. You’ll understand why even he considers himself polarizing when you listen to this episode.

He’s a sports business analyst for ESPN and he’s known for sharing stats and facts that you didn’t know you wanted to know until he tells you them. The guy is a numbers wizard. His work ethic, consistency and mind are unmatched. I’ve known him for almost a decade now and I can’t wait for you to get to know him if you don’t already. And this episode isn’t just for sports fans. Darren’s life journey and operating system is valuable to all of us. 

 
Also in this episode, Amy Jo shares a personal story about her start in professional sports, experiences with Shaquille O'Neal and how social media helped shape her entrepreneurial beginnings.
