Why do so many of us get nervous when public speaking? Communication expert Lawrence Bernstein says the key to dealing with the pressure is as simple as having a casual chat. He introduces the "coffee shop test" as a way to help you overcome nerves, connect with your audience and deliver a message that truly resonates. After the talk, Modupe explains a similar approach in academia called the "Grandma test," and how public speaking can be as simple as a conversation with grandma.

Born as the youngest of four brothers in South Africa, our guest this week is the sole survivor of a family that faced an unimaginable cascade of tragedies. From the heart-wrenching loss of his parents and siblings to facing life's harshest challenges alone, his journey is a testament to the indomitable human spirit. In an intimate conversation, Daniel shares for the first time the harrowing details of his childhood - marked by the sudden loss of his father, a renowned psychologist, to suicide and the devastating struggles of his mother, a dedicated doctor who through a series of tragic events, found herself in a situation that led her to her darkest hour. The episode takes a deep dive into the fateful day that changed everything, when a crisis led to an unimaginable family tragedy that would forever change the course of Daniel's life. Yet, amidst this backdrop of sorrow and loss, Daniel's story is not one of despair. It's a narrative of incredible strength, love, and an unyielding belief in the possibility of a brighter tomorrow. He opens up about the challenges of overcoming the complex emotions surrounding his mother's actions on November 13th, 1998, and the heartbreak of losing his last remaining brother during the global pandemic. His message is clear and powerful: Life happens for us, not to us. In this episode, Daniel eloquently shares how he transformed his pain into his purpose, helping others navigate their journeys of grief, guilt and shame into transforming into their authentic self and expression. When shit hits the fan and your world turns upside down, Daniel is the man you call. Join us for a life-changing episode that's more than just a story - it's an exploration of the depths of grief and the heights of human resilience. It's a reminder that even in our darkest moments, there is a light of hope that never goes out. Daniel Costa Gil ( www.danielcostgil.com ) is a graduate of my Own Your Story programme.

The Unconventionalists with Mark Leruste
Welcome back to another inspiring episode of The Unconventionalists podcast! Today, I'm thrilled to bring you an exclusive interview with the incredible Donald Miller, CEO of Business Made Simple and StoryBrand, and the author of 13 transformative books. I had the pleasure of sitting down with Don on the eve of Thanks Giving and dive into the myriad of questions I had about his various books. From asking about his memoirs such as Blue Like Jazz (that stayed a New York Times Bestseller for 40 weeks) to some of my favourite business books he wrote like "Hero on a Mission", "Building a StoryBrand" or "Marketing Made Simple", we talked about what it takes to build a successful business and create a meaningful life. If you've never heard about Don before today, you're going to love his story: A fatherless boy from southern Texas raised by a struggling single mother, who grew up poor standing in line for government cheese and who through a series of events and guidance ends up writing books and manages to go from being an author with a virtual assistant to running a $15m company with 40 employees impacting hundreds of thousands of lives. You wouldn’t know by looking at him but Don also used to weigh 387lbs (175.5kgs) and lost 200lbs (90.7kgs)! Which is an incredible feat. When screenwriters wanted to turn his breakout book Blue Like Jazz into a film they realised they needed to edit his life to make it more interesting. That’s when Don realised that we can all have a more meaningful and fulfilling life by being intentional to treat our lives like a compelling story. Don’s super power is to take complex concepts or ideas and to explain them in a really simple way, be it religion, life or business. Alex Hormozi is a fan and so am I. From Don's backstory to his thoughts on what it takes to build a successful business and create a life of meaning to what is desperately missing in the narative to resolve the Israel - Palestine conflict, this episode is going to blow your mind. I genuinely can't wait for you to listen to this episode! 🙏 SPONSORS This week’s episode of The Unconventionalists podcast was brought to you by: Storycast: www.storycast.co - Learn how to turn your story into a powerful asset that gets noticed Donald Miller’s website: https://www.donaldmiller.com Business Made Simple - businessmadesimple.com Twitter - twitter.com/donaldmiller Instagram - instagram.com/donaldmiller Facebook - facebook.com/donaldmillerwords David Gentiles’s Obituary : https://eu.statesman.com/story/news/2012/09/23/beliefs-big-and-small-paint-picture-of-pastors-life/9886546007/ GET IN TOUCH WITH MARK Website: www.markleruste.com Instagram: www.instagram.com/markleruste YouTube: www.youtube.com/markleruste Facebook: www.facebook.com/markleruste Twitter: www.twitter.com/markleruste LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/markleruste…

In this week's special episode of The Unconventionalsits podcast, Mark Leruste dives into the entire journey behind how his new book, " Glow in the Dark: How Sharing Your Personal Story Can Transform Your Business and Change Your Life " (Hachette UK) launched as a Top 10 Bestseller on Amazon in three different categories. As you will learn, it was the best of launches and it was the worst of launches...

This meant that people sometimes bought 10, 20 or 30 copies at a time. Which may have contributed to Amazon UK panicking and thinking the increase in purchases were down to bots trying to bring the website down... Also, Mark mentioned "Ben Keene" attending his official book launch, but he actually meant "Ben Coomber"! The correct link to Ben Coomber's new book is included in the show notes above.…

“We can’t all live in nature, but that doesn’t mean we can’t live naturally.” - Tony Riddle In this week's episode of The Unconventionalists podcast, Mark Leruste sits down with Tony Riddle, aka The Natural Lifestylist.

As a third time guest on The Unconventionalists podcast, Tony always brings a wealth of knowledge, is never afraid to challenge the status quo, is a brilliant storyteller and as a result has fast become a fan favourite of the show. As you will find out, Tony first shared his story in full on this very podcast back in 2016, so it was an honour to get to catch up after so long.

In essence, it’s disconnecting from our ‘ego-system’ and reconnecting to our ecosystem.” - Tony Riddle Tony has been featured extensively in the press from The Times, Guardian, The Daily Telegraph, Telegraph Magazine, New York Times, Men’s Health, Evening Standard, and on BBC Breakfast, Sky News, The Rich Roll Podcast, Feel Better, Live More with Dr Rangan Chatterjee, and many others.

Who cares what people think of you next time you squat down on the tube, Tony has been a friend in my life who always pushes the boundaries of what could be if only you give yourself the permission to be all you can be. Enjoy this very special episode, fresh off the press!

In this week's episode of The Unconventionalists podcast, I sit down with Nir Eyal, Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author of "Hooked" and "Indistractable”, investor, consultant and public speaker to find out the number one reason why people don’t achieve their goals and what we can do to become hyper focused and indistractable. It’s a powerful conversation that I hope will be as much of a game changer to you as it was to me. Nir’s book “Indistractable”is one of my favourite books I read in 2021 and I just knew I had to get him on the podcast to better understand what truly drives us to do what we do. As you will hear in our conversation, it turns out that 90% of the problem with distraction has nothing to do with technology or external factors, it has everything to do with our internal triggers. Plato, the Greek philosopher was complaining about distraction 2,500 years ago! That’s why Nir believes that conventional advice towards becoming less distracted is silly. Instead of focusing on trying to get rid of our smart phones we must first learn how to manage our internal triggers that drive our behaviour. That’s right, most distractions begin from within. Nir argues that it’s our desire to escape discomfort, or as he calls them internal triggers, be it boredom, loneliness, fatigue, uncertainty, stress or anxiety, this is why we’re looking for escape. Whether it’s too much news, too much booze or too much Facebook we’re going to look for distraction if we don’t know how to deal with those integral triggers. “The only way to handle distraction is to learn how to handle pain.” Nir Eyal My favourite takeaway was that time management is actually pain management and that self-compassion may be the most underrated hack to productivity. Who knew that trying to stop the urge to do something was the very reason why we end up doing the very thing we don’t want to do (I know, very meta!). This is a juicy conversation you won’t want to miss as we also dive deeper into Nir’s process to write binge-worthy books that people can’t stop talking about. As always I can’t wait to hear what you got out of today’s conversation, so please get in touch and let me know! Be true, be brave, be kind and let it rip. Mark IN THIS WEEK’S EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN The number one reason why people don’t achieve their goals (this will blow your mind) Why technology may not be the problem to our inability to focus (hello 2,500 year old problem) Why self-compassion is the ultimate productivity hack Understanding the root cause vs the proxy cause of our behaviour (and why it matters) And how to differentiate the voice of doubt (i.e. impostor syndrome) with the voice of reason (healthy self-awareness) THIS WEEK'S EPISODE WAS BROUGHT TO YOU BY: Become The Spotlight ( www.becomethespotlight.com ): Discover your Profile Score and improve your ability to impact the world with your message SHOWNOTES www.theunconventionalists.com/episode/162…

In 1976 the film Rocky was nominated for 10 Academy Awards and won three, including best picture, making its writer and lead role, Sylvester Stallone, a star. It also went on to become the highest-grossing movie of the year. Now there's a reason why Rocky stole the show...we LOVE a good story! Especially a story involving an underdog who against all odds finds a way to win the day. Who despite all their fears, doubts and everyone second guessing them along the way, manages to push through adversity, overcome challenges and come out swinging, punching way above their weight. Georgie, just like Rocky, was an underdog. As a one woman-band independent podcaster, Georgie Vestey had little to no chance to get nominated let alone win the most prestigious podcasting award in the country. And yet, Georgie's podcast " Dead Honest " ended up being nominated for "Best Interview Podcast" at the British Podcast Awards 2021 and was up against media juggernauts including Channel 4 and The Guardian, all fighting for gold. Well, just like Rocky, Georgie shocked the world and came out with her hand raised. But she didn't stop there... Today Georgie was announced as the winner of a prestigous European Lovie Awards, a ceremony celebrating the best of European internet, which is a pretty big deal. The crazy thing is, Georgie almost never pressed published on her podcast. This is the story of how a perfectionist procrastinator became an award-winning podcaster and inspired thousands of independent podcasts to keep fighting the good fight. No matter what your goals are, I hope that you get inspired by my conversation with Georgie to get started on your journey to impact too. I can't wait to hear what you got out of it over on social media @markleruste or over on www.theunconventionalists.com ! Be brave, be true, be kind and let it rip.
