How I Interviewed my Dream Podcast Guest ๐๏ธ
And what it means for you
Ladies & Gents, dreams do come true โก๏ธ
A little over a month ago, I had the opportunity to drive 7 hours to Kelowna, Canada and interview my #1 dream guest - the legendary Dan Martell ๐๏ธ

Where do we even begin with who Dan is and what heโs accomplished?
๐ Wall Street Journal bestselling author
โ๏ธ Serial entrepreneur (3x Exits)
๐ฅ Founder of SaaS Academy
๐ฐ Angel Investor ($100M Holding Co)
๐ Highly sought-after Executive Coach (Ed Mylett is his coach)
๐ฃ Global public speaker (has spoken on stage at a Tony Robbins event)
Most importantly, heโs an incredible husband, father, philanthropist, adrenaline junkie (loves to snowboard & wakesurf), Ironman athlete, always giving back to his communities, and has been sober over a decade.
Dan does it all, and has been a massive inspiration for the way I live my life.
And I had the opportunity to bring him on the podcast.
Hereโs the story:
It was October 14 of 2022, and Dan had just released his book, Buy Back Your Time.
He was doing a podcast tour to promote the book, so I reached out and asked him to come on the show.
He told me he was looking for a bigger reach with bigger audience.
He also told me, โget to 100 episodes and heโll come on the show.
And you know how many I had at the time?
8
I had 8 episodes at the time.
Fast forward a year and a half, countless studio time and late nights / early mornings, and 102 episodes later, and here we are - a live, in-person interview with Dan Martell from Martell Media Studios in Kelowna Canada.
This was one of the most incredible, and powerful experiences of my life, and yes - you already know I got in my car and drove the 7 hours to Kelowna, Canada, to meet the man himself, and do the podcast live from Martell Media Studios.
3+ years in the making working on the vision - thereโs no telling where your dreams will take you.
But what I CAN tell you, is that theyโre undeniably worth the pursuit.
And so is the person you become along the way ๐
So with that, in case you missed it, Ep. 106 on The Seeds of Success Podcast w/ Dan Martell is officially live on all podcast platforms ๐๏ธ ๐ (see links below)

๐ฑ What a journey this entire experience has been:
- Starting a podcast in the first place
- Reaching out to Dan to come on the show
- Being challenged to get to 100 episodes
- Actually doing it
- And then driving to Martell Media in Kelowna, Canada to do the live interview
If there's anything to share with you - it's a reminder to follow your callings
Whatever that gut feeling is, that curiosity, that potential passion project - just go for it.
You don't need a grand vision or a 5 year plan (although it surely turns into one).
But you do owe it to yourself to start. To try. To experiment. To fail. To learn.
To really lean into that curiosity and see if there's something there.
Because there very well could be.
And it could very well change your life forever.
As well as the people you'll impact along the way.
Keep Plantinโ Yโall โก๏ธ ๐ฑ
