    Escapees Mark Channon [Memory Coach]

    · Escape The Rat Race Radio

    Every two weeks I’ll be bringing you interviews with leading authors, entrepreneurs, personal development coaches and marketing experts to the show as always...but in between you’ll now also get the opportunity to hear from people who may seem a little more within reach of where you are right now
..members of the escape the rat race community who have been attending our events since we launched in 2015, working with myself and our mentors, but most importantly working hard on themselves and picking a lane upon which to focus.

    I’ll be breaking down their story into three parts:

    Where They Were

    Where They Are Now

    Where They Want To Get To

    I’ll also be asking them if they can remember the date they set as their ‘Escape The Rat Race Day’- and if you don’t already have a date written down somewhere for yourself, let me challenge you now to do so. State your intention, write it down, and put it in a draw somewhere. You might just surprise yourself when you find it again in a year or two’s time...

    OK, let’s do this! Our next Escapee, coming up

  • Ash Ali & Hasan Kubba - How You Already Have What It Takes to Succeed

    Ash Ali & Hasan Kubba - How You Already Have What It Takes to Succeed

    · Escape The Rat Race Radio

    The subtitle of this book is ‘How You Already Have What It Takes To Succeed’, and I think that is just so relevant for all of my listeners because it really is true. It comes back to the famous quote from Henry Ford ‘Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t - you’re right’. Successful entrepreneurship is really 80% mindset and 20% skillset. there’s always someone else that has the answer.

    In today’s conversation, you’re going to hear Ash and Hasan tell you why we all have unfair advantages in life, whether we happen to be really analytical in the way we think, or we have a talent for something that might have been thought really geeky when we were at school - but actually now is our greatest asset. Or it could be that you just naturally have a great feel for people and can build relationships really easily. An unfair advantage is simply the element that gives you an edge over your competition ...and the quicker you can really get clear on that, the quicker you’re going to start seeing success and traction in your business.

    With Ash’s 20 years of hands-on experience creating and growing startups, combined with Hasan’s own digital marketing agency background and startup investment experience - you should definitely be taking note of what these guys are sharing with you today.

    This Week’s Freebie

    Ash & Hasan are giving away 2 signed copies of their brand new book ‘The Unfair Advantage’ and all you need to do if you’d like to be in the draw to win one of those is head on over to www.etrr.online/podcast98. Be quick, entries close on Friday 31st January. Good luck!

  • Xavier Collins - How To Make Your First ÂŁ1k on Turo

    Xavier Collins - How To Make Your First £1k on Turo

    · Escape The Rat Race Radio

    Hey welcome to another episode of Escape The Rat Race Radio, my name is Christian Rodwell and this week my guest is Xavier Collins.

    Xavier shot up the ranks in the gig economy, playing a pivotal role in the national growth of Deliveroo before joining Turo to lead its UK expansion.

    As General manager for the south of the UK and head of UK market launches for Deliveroo, Xavier built the business from a team of just two, doing less than 100 orders a day, to a team of 20 doing over 10k orders a day - in only two years. He also went on to run Deliveroo’s latest vertical - Deliveroo for Business, signing up major clients such as Facebook, Google and banks like Credit Suisse - playing a significant role in Deliveroo turning into the £2 billion success story it is today.

    In today’s episode, Xavier talks us through how simple it is to use Turo to begin generating a monthly income from the cars that you own. Without the need to find your own customers, or do any of the marketing - you can simply leverage the platform and begin making money within a matter of days.

    This is SUCH a great way for you to start creating multiple streams of income and as you’ll be hearing from one of the Turo hosts, Carlo Misceo, the extra income you can generate from Turo every month can either be used to fulfil your desire to travel more, or you could simply use that income to start growing your asset base in other areas.

    I’m excited for you to hear today’s episode, and if you decide to give Turo a test-drive and start making some money from it - then I’d love to hear from you! Be sure to post an update inside of the Escape the Rat Race Private Facebook Group!

    OK let’s do this! Let’s head over to today’s conversation with the UK Director for Turo, Xavier Collins.

  • Ruari Fairbairns - How a city trader started a global movement helping people change their relationship with alcohol

    Ruari Fairbairns - How a city trader started a global movement helping people change their relationship with alcohol

    · Escape The Rat Race Radio

    Hey welcome to another episode of Escape The Rat Race Radio, my name is Christian Rodwell and this week my guest is Ruari Fairbairns.

    Ruari grew up on the Isle of Mull in Scotland, setting up his first business selling and servicing PCs on the island aged just 16. A career in sales followed, and by the age of 25 he’d setup 5 different enterprises and through the TV program “The Apprentice” he found himself in London as a commodities broker.

    Ruari quickly established himself as a success and went on to start and grow the European Jet Desk from inception to market leader in under 3 years. In 2015, after a few failed attempts, Ruari decided to take a break from alcohol and it fundamentally changed his life.

    Together with co-founder Andy Ramage, Ruari decided to create something to change the peer pressure around giving up drinking. In 2016 they launched the ‘One Year No Beer’ online challenge, which has proved more successful than they could have ever imagined.

    Since inception, OYNB has helped over 70,000 people in 90 countries transform their relationship with alcohol. Headquartered in North Berwick, just outside Edinburgh, As CEO of the business, Ruari is now responsible for a rapidly growing team who are passionate about changing the world, whilst building a business by the beach.

    In today’s episode, you’ll hear Ruari talk about how his journey to success was far from smooth, making every mistake in the book, over-spending - and that in some ways you have to experience this as part of your learning phase when it comes to gaining real-life

    business experience.

    I’m excited for you to hear Rurai’s story of escaping the trading desk to starting one of the largest sober-free movements in the world, so let’s not wait any longer, and let’s head on over to my conversation with Ruari Fairbairns.

    OK let’s do this! Let’s head over to today’s conversation with the Co-Founder of One Year No Beer, Ruari Fairbairns

    Dennis Yu - Where To Begin With Digital Marketing & Facebook Advertising

    · Escape The Rat Race Radio

    Hey welcome to another episode of Escape The Rat Race Radio, my name is Christian Rodwell and this week my guest is Dennis Yu.

    If you’ve ever tried to run Facebook ads for your business then you’ll know that it can be pretty overwhelming knowing what type of objective to choose, who to target and how to make your ad compelling enough for people to click and engage. It’s super easy to spend hundreds of pounds or dollars and not see any tangible result in terms of sales.

    Dennis’ message is one of simplicity and going back to marketing basics - you have to move your prospects through a funnel which begins with running ads specifically to create awareness of you, then to engagement before the final stage which is where you convert your prospect to a paying customer.

    In today’s episode, you’ll hear Dennis share what he believes is the best way for an employee to transition successfully from a full-time job to work for themselves, and why you shouldn’t quit your job until you’re making enough money to cover all of your expenses in your new venture.

    We also dive into some of the fundamentals of marketing and what you need to do in order to start running successful campaigns on facebook that will help you build your brand and get your potential customers to know, like and trust you enough to be ready to buy.

    OK let’s do this! Let’s head over to today’s conversation with the CEO of BlitzMetrics, Dennis Yu.

    Lydia Lee - Repurposing your skills from corporate to entrepreneurship

    · Escape The Rat Race Radio

    Hey welcome to another episode of Escape The Rat Race Radio, my name is Christian Rodwell and this week my guest is Lydia Lee, Founder and Creator of Screw The Cubicle - an online community not dissimilar to Escape The Rat Race, that focuses on helping individuals discover "What's Next?" in their new chapter of life.

    Lydia climbed her way up the corporate ladder in her home town of Vancouver and had bagged a comfortable six-figure job for herself. However, after having a realization that it wasn’t the life she wanted, she quit and started launching businesses of her own.

    As you will have heard from so many of my previous guests before, success didn’t happen overnight, but after a lot of soul searching and persistence, Lydia went on to build a business that’s not only profitable, but purposeful, and allows her to design her work around the lifestyle she wants to lead.

    Lydia’s work has been featured in Forbes Magazine and Huffington Post and retweeted by Sir Richard Branson, and shared by Tim Ferriss.

    In today’s episode, you’ll hear what some of the common mistakes are that people make when starting a new business, and what you should be doing instead, as well as a great tip for identifying what skills you already have which may have been forgotten about after years of being held a corporate hostage!

    Lydia packs a huge amount of value into today’s podcast, and I’m excited for you to hear it. Don’t forget, if you enjoy listening to Escape The Rat Race Radio and you haven’t yet written a review on iTunes or your podcasting app of choice - then I’d truly appreciate it if you let me know that you’re enjoying these conversations.

    Marianne Cantwell - Creating A Business Based On Your Personality

    · Escape The Rat Race Radio

    Hey welcome to another episode of Escape The Rat Race Radio, my name is Christian Rodwell and this week my guest is Marianne Cantwell, Author of ‘Be A Free Range Human’.
    In 2013 she published a book titled ‘Be A Free Range Human: Escape the 9-5, Create a life you love and still pay the bills’. Unbeknown to her at the time, but this book would go on to become an international best seller, having since been translated into multiple languages, and propel Marianne into the spotlight alongside the likes of other pioneering career change experts such as Tim Ferriss, Author of ‘The 4 Hour Work Week’

    In 2017 Marianne stepped onto the TED stage to deliver a TedX talk titled ‘The Hidden power of Not (Always) Fitting In’, which to date has been watched nearly 400k times, inspiring thousands to enrol in her courses which focus on finding your 'thing' (and making it work for you).

    Her thinking has featured everywhere from Business Week and CBS MoneyWatch, to The Guardian and Entrepreneur magazine.

    A corporate escapee herself, she now lives and works between several countries (often found between London and sunny California), and carries her business in an unexpectedly tiny laptop.

    In today’s conversation you’ll hear Marianne talk about why there is a home for every personality and strength – it’s just a question of finding that home or creating it to fit you.
    Starting from who you are is the pathway to a lot more ease, happiness and smoother success in what you do (rather than rushing into something that sounds like a good idea but in reality requires you to leave a piece of yourself at the door and squish your edges day after day).
    I very much resonate with Marianne’s approach and I’m sure you’re going to as well.

    OK Let’s do this! Let’s head on over to my conversation with Marianne Cantwell.

    This Week’s Freebie!
    To celebrate the release of the new edition of Marianne’s best seller ‘Be A Free Range Human’, she’s kindly giving away a free chapter for Escape The Rat Race Radio listeners to download - to get your copy head on over to - https://www.etrr.online/podcast90

    Janey Lee Grace - PR & Media for your Business

    · Escape The Rat Race Radio

    Hey welcome to another episode of Escape The Rat Race Radio, my name is Christian Rodwell and before I introduce my guest this week I’d like to say congratulations to Sharon Jones who is the winner of the SIDE HUSTLE book which was signed by the author and my guest on Episode 87, Mr Chris Gullebeau. Well done Sharon!

    Janey began her career as a backing singer for George Michael and Wham!, Kim Wilde and Boy George. She has presented shows for Virgin Radio, BBC London and Radio 1.

    She wrote the best-selling book 'Imperfectly Natural Woman – getting life right the natural way, and has been helping small business owners and entrepreneurs to increase their brand awareness through PR and media.

    Janey learned all the tips and secrets that she is offering you today the hard way, but her efforts rewarded her with; as an author, – an Amazon No 1 Best-selling book, many national TV appearances as an expert commentator, and as a presenter – 15 years (and still counting) as a co-presenter on the UK’s biggest radio show on BBC Radio 2 (now 8 million listeners) and also being voted the No 1 personality in the Natural Beauty Industry Yearbook for two years running, and a website that received a quarter of a million hits in its first month on-line.

    Janey currently write columns for many magazines, and her PR work for individual clients have resulted in some life-changing Media breakthroughs for them.

    I think it’s fair to say that Janey Lee Grace is most definitely qualified to talk to us about both why it’s important to gain media exposure if you wish to grow your business, and some tips as to how you can set about doing so.

    Unfortunately for Brandon, he proved to himself that there could be too much of a good thing, and the hedonistic lifestyle that he became famous for back in the late nineties rapidly began to spiral out of control, leading to serious drug addiction and being told that if he didn’t stop he would only have a couple of weeks left to live.

    It often takes a catalyst to bring about change, and this certainly set about a new lease of life for Brandon, albeit, as you’ll hear today, it wasn’t until a good 10 years later that Brandon once again took stock of his life and asked himself if what he was doing was truly making him happy.

    In today’s episode you’ll hear Brandon explain about the work he’s been involved in over the last 8 or so years with people suffering from mental illness, addiction and homelessness through the NHS, which has inspired him to create his own business called Happy Days which focuses on teaching anybody how to use simple tools to begin bringing more compassion into your life and focus on what’s good, as opposed to what you don’t have in your life right now.

    I personally see many people attending Escape the Rat Race events who are unhappy with their work, their boss or their financial situation - and as you’ll hear from our discussion today, sometimes instead of blaming everyone and everything else for not being right, the first place to look to begin fixing things, is within ourselves.

    OK Let’s do this! Let’s head on over to my conversation with Superstar DJ and all round top geezer, Brandon Block! Oi Oi!

    When Google Adwords was launched Perry became one of the very first to realise it’s huge potential and quickly became an expert user, co-authoring The Definitive Guide to Google Adwords and llaying the foundations for what has now grown into a $100bn pay per click industry.

    In part 1 of my conversation with Perry we talked about what life used to be like for Perry, and how he was just a regular guy doing a regular job just like the rest of us.

    I think it’s really helpful to realise that everybody started from pretty much the same place, and I hope that by hearing the journey that my guests have been on which led to their success will inspire you to have that unfaltering self-belief and determination to keep on going, even when you feel like giving up on your entrepreneurial exploits.

    So in Part 2 today we’re pulling back the covers on what it really takes to be successful at marketing, and I’m certain you’re gonna love it! Get your notebooks at the ready because Perry will be giving you some tips which are the best out there if you want to start selling more of your products or services - guaranteed!

    Perry Marshall - 80/20 Sales & Marketing [Part 1]

    · Escape The Rat Race Radio

    Hey welcome to another episode of Escape The Rat Race Radio, my name is Christian Rodwell and today I’m talking with Perry Marshall - best selling author of the 80/20 Sales & Marketing, The Ultimate Guide to Google Adwords and The Ultimate Guide to Facebook Advertising.

    Perry is a smart guy who has a degree in Electrical Engineering, and his reinvention of the Pareto Principle is published in Harvard Business Review, and NASA's Jet Propulsion Labs at the California Institute of Technology also use his 80/20 Curve as a productivity tool.

    When Google Adwords was launched Perry became one of the very first to realise it’s huge potential and quickly became an expert user. In 2008 along with Bryan Todd he co-authored The Definitive Guide to Google Adwords, laying the foundations for what has now grown into a $100bn pay per click industry.

    In part 1 of my conversation with Perry which you’re about to hear, we don’t even get close to speaking about the 80/20 principle which is what Perry is so well known for within the sales and marketing world. Instead, we talk today about what life used to be like for Perry, and how he was just a regular guy doing a regular job just like the rest of us.

    His first taste of sales actually came through an association with Amway, one of the biggest MLM distribution companies in the U.S - and perhaps it was this experience that led Perry to become one of the worlds most in demand marketing experts that he is today.

    OK Let’s do this! Let’s head on over to my conversation with Perry Marshall.

    Paul Taylor - £0 to £100k in One Year

    · Escape The Rat Race Radio

    Hey welcome to another episode of Escape The Rat Race Radio, my name is Christian Rodwell and today I’m talking with Paul Taylor, a former derivatives broker turned property investor who is now giving back to those who wish to emulate some of the good fortune and success that he has been able to create for himself through hard work, commitment and laser focus on what he wants.

    Starting with zero pounds, Paul wanted to prove that anybody can start to make money and set about recording his journey and posting on youtube, bringing his 7 year old son Jack along for the experience, and to teach him some valuable business lessons along the way.

    In today’s episode you’ll hear Paul explain exactly what he did to generate those first few pounds from nothing, and then how he quickly compounded those returns to begin growing the pot to over £200k worth of stock capital that he is currently holding and in the process of selling, on top of the £80k+ that has already been banked! And they’re only 6 months into their 12 month challenge!

    If you’ve told yourself that money is stopping you from getting started, then today’s episode will blow that excuse clean away!

    OK Let’s do this! Let’s head on over to my conversation with Paul Taylor.

    #Escapee – Ian McBain, Property Investor

    · Escape The Rat Race Radio

    Every two weeks I’ll be bringing you interviews with leading authors, entrepreneurs, personal development coaches and marketing experts to the show as always...but in between you’ll now also get the opportunity to hear from people who may seem a little more within reach of where you are right now
..members of the escape the rat race community who have been attending our events since we launched in 2015, working with myself and our mentors, but most importantly working hard on themselves and picking a lane upon which to focus.

    I’ll be breaking down their story into three parts:

    Where They Were
    Where They Are Now
    Where They Want To Get To

    I’ll also be asking them if they can remember the date they set as their ‘Escape The Rat Race Day’- and if you don’t already have a date written down somewhere for yourself, let me challenge you now to do so. State your intention, write it down, and put it in a draw somewhere. You might just surprise yourself when you find it again in a year or two’s time...

    OK, let’s do this! Our next Escapee, coming up

    Brian Mayne - How to Set Goals

    · Escape The Rat Race Radio

    Hey welcome to another episode of Escape The Rat Race Radio, my name is Christian Rodwell and today I’m talking with Brian Mayne,

    Now, It was at a seemingly low point that Brian discovered the keys to success: that you can change your life by changing your thoughts and feelings about it.

    Using simple but powerful techniques, Brian learned to hold positive thoughts by setting goals, and through those goals he gradually transformed both himself and his life.

    20 years later, and Brian is an international speaker on human potential, and has empowered hundreds of thousands of people with his unique systems for success.

    In 1994 he created a unique process called Goal Mapping, which has now been taught to over 4m users worldwide, and spawned new products to help people achieve their full potential such as life mapping, self mapping and the 7 magic keys development programme for children.

    Goal Mapping has helped people from all walks of life to turn their dreams into realities, and Brian is on course to achieving his own goal of lifting the lives of 7 million people.
    Brian is an Author of 4 books, has been voted UK Speaker of the Year by the Academy of Chief Executives and has also worked with renowned speakers such as Brendon Bruchard, Anthony Robbins, Christopher Howard and T Harv Ecker.
    Quite some credentials I think you’ll agree.

    OK Let’s do this! Let’s head on over to my conversation with Brian Mayne.

    · Escape The Rat Race Radio

    Hey welcome to another episode of Escape The Rat Race Radio, my name is Christian Rodwell and today I’m talking with Emma Hammett, the Founder of First Aid for Life, onlinefirstaid.com and First Aid for Pets

    Before setting up her business back in 2007, Emma was working as a nurse in London before moving into hospital management. As you can imagine, she was working long hours and when it came to that time when Emma wanted to start a family - she knew that something would have to change. This led her to look at teaching what she knew, and after gaining her teaching qualification she then had the idea to combine all of her knowledge and skills to launch an online first aid training business.

    In today’s conversation you’ll hear the ups and downs emma encountered as she launched her new business, along with some great advice if you’re currently at the early stages of planning your own escape plan.
