GetMyBoat & CorkSharing with Bryan Petro – Part 1

Ep 194

Bryan Petro has two loves.

Boats, and Wine.

Seems to me like he’s living the life!

Today he joins us to talk about his two businesses, GetMyBoat.com & CorkSharing.com and how they cater to the access mindset.

In Part 1 we focus on GetMyBoat and chat about the sharing economy, what GetMyBoat is exactly and what it covers (they have watersport stuff too!), and what to know before you rent.

Another topic of interest is a lengthy discussion on the entrepreneurial spirit and how to find ideas for businesses.

Part 2 continues on Thursday where we discuss more about CorkSharing and Bryan’s favorite places around the globe!

Destination Diary – Cape Town, South Africa

Ep-193

I have a new favorite city.

Cape Town, South Africa

It has everything. It’s small but has everything you want. You can drive without it being a pain. And you can get to the mountains, the beach, and most importantly, the wine country with less than a 30-minute car ride.

Today Heather joins me as we break down our time in Capetown, from the deal with transportation through amazing (and some not amazing) food and wine we had along the way.

Check out our full itinerary here, as well as our Sleep, Eat, Do guide to Cape Town!

A Tribute to Scott Dinsmore – Friend, Leader, Legend

Ep-190

8 days ago my friend Scott, founder of Live Your Legend, died while climbing Mount Kilimanjaro.

He was 33 years old.

And even though we had only met in person three times, his impact on my life was incredible.

When I found out about his death, I was shocked.

Crushed.

Depressed.

And while I those feelings are still bubbling inside of me – and probably will be for a long time – I’ve come to realize that the best way I can honor Scott is by helping to spread his incredible message to people who may not have heard it before.

Scott was truly one of the most inspiring, energetic, and enthusiastic people I know, and I recorded this podcast to help others who may be grieving from the loss of a loved one and also to inspire people by discussing the 4 biggest lessons I’ve learned from Scott over the years.

We only get one chance at life, so we better start living our legend.
