Summary

“It really starts with just saying I am going to bet on myself… no one else is going to bet on you if you don’t.”

Lisa Bilyeu spent 8 years of her life as a supportive housewife (which she described as “mundane purgatory”) until her husband's fast growing company, Quest Nutrition, required her to dive head first into business. Energized by her work, she started giving herself permission to make small moves in another direction. These decisions ultimately led Lisa to become co-founder of a billion-dollar company, an international leader in the world of personal growth and now, author empowering women to become the heroes of their own lives.

Lisa has written her first book, Radical Confidence: 10 No-BS Lessons on Becoming the Hero of Your Own Life, being released this week. In this show, we discuss her life, her book and how she did it: how she transformed her life from housewife to successful businesswoman and what it took to get there.

Enjoy!

0:00.0	Hey everybody, what's up? It's Chase. Welcome to another episode of the Chase Jarvis Live show here on Creative Live, the show where I unpack amazing people's brains with the goal of helping you live your dreams.
0:14.4	Today's guest is Lisa Bill You. If you're not familiar with Lisa, she was the co-founder of a little billion dollar company called
0:21.3	Quest Nutrition. You know those little bars. Her and her husband Tom sold that. And she has been on
0:26.7	an absolute tear on all kinds of different media fronts. They've been building a company called
0:31.8	Impact Theory. And along the way, she happened to write an incredible book about radical confidence, which
0:39.1	whether you see yourself as someone who's confident or not is an absolutely must read.
0:44.8	In this particular show, we dive into some of those key cornerstone, the ideas behind it,
0:50.2	specifically the awareness of what she calls the purgatory of the mundane. Are you asleep and
0:56.7	having difficulty changing because it's just your life is just okay enough? You've maybe been
1:01.9	in those sorts of relationships before. She talks about how our belief systems either harm us
1:06.7	or hurt us, how the willingness to trust yourself, how dreaming is actually a gamble, and what
1:13.4	can you do to learn to bet on yourself? The idea of turning your kryptonite, the thing that
1:17.6	you're weak at, how do you turn that into a superpower, the messy creative process, and what is
1:22.9	more important, your goal or your ego? Last but not least, one of my favorite elements of this conversation is how to have
1:30.4	difficult conversations.
1:32.0	When you decide that you want to change your life, there will be resistance, resistance
1:37.2	from other people in your life, even those people who love you dearly.
1:41.7	Lisa articulates in perhaps the most clear way that I have ever, of any guest I've had,
1:47.9	specifically how to have those conversations. It's pure gold. I'm going to get out of the way
1:51.9	and let you enjoy this conversation. Yours truly, Lisa, Bill, you all about confidence and
1:57.6	transforming your life. Hey, before we get into the show, I want to give a quick shout out to our sponsor,
2:04.0	Creative Live.
