100. About The Conscious Entrepreneur Summit feat. Alex Raymond @ Conscious Entrepreneur Summit

So I was out walking my dog and I had this thought that just flew into my head and the thought was,I really like being an entrepreneur and I really like the personal growth journey that I've been on ever since my wife,kind of nudged me in this direction with that reflection.And I really like putting on events.It kind of occurred to me,well,hey,why don't I do something that marries all three of those,being an entrepreneur and self-growth and putting on events,and that was how I created the Conscious Entrepreneur Summit.I started this whole project to say if I wanted to build a community,if I wanted to get people together who are entrepreneurs,founders,and CEOs who are committed to their personal growth,who understand the value of investing in these types of tools and resources for themselves and for their companies,how would I do that?The main idea was,I wanna make this a conference with no hero stories,we've all heard the hero stories from entrepreneurs.They're at every other conference you know,you got some guy,by the way,it's inevitably a guy up on stage who says,oh,I saw this problem in the market and then I raised$5million,and then boom,everything is perfect and we're all,you know,gazillionaires and,and look at me."I wanna have the opposite of that.We wanted to talk about the anti-hero stories.The anti-hero stories are,here's what it really looks like to build a company.Here's the five years or10years that it took for us to get there.Here's the challenges that we had as a team or in our relationships,or with our investors or with whatever it is.Here are the specific tools and resources that I have used to help me when times were tough.When we talk about anti-hero stories,those are what are coming up.At the Conscious Entrepreneur Summit,we're all committed to learning and doing this together.The idea being that I can learn from you,someone else can learn from me,and we'll all then figure out how do we remove stress from our lives?How do we build resilience?How do we no longer feel imposter syndrome or those sorts of things?So we're really committed to building this community around that.And the first major commitment to that is simply commitment to being open and vulnerable and sharing what's going on.So that's part of what we do at the Conscious Entrepreneur Summit.It's been super fun and amazing to put together.In our first year we did it in Denver last year in May of2022.We had about115people for that session.And it was really great.We still get messages from people saying how much it impacted their life.We're doing it again June7th and eighth,2023in Boulder this time.We would love to see you in Boulder for the Conscious Entrepreneur Summit.The website is Conscious entrepreneur.us,and if you use the code springtime,you'll get$150off your ticket.
