The final episode of Freedom Mindset Radio - and a new beginning

We often talk about “getting out of” our comfort zone, and in Curt’s book, he describes “escaping your comfort zone of misery.” But in some cases, “escaping” this comfort zone means expanding it. Listen to today’s episode to learn why.

Sometimes escaping your comfort zone means expanding it

What does the word “freedom” mean to T.K. Coleman, director of entrepreneurial education at the Foundation for Economic Foundation (FEE) and the co-founder and education director at Praxis? “Recognizing that I have the permission and the power to be the predominant creative force in my own life,” he said. “It's understanding that power does not begin with a discussion of external realities. It begins with an affirmation of internal reality, that I am not powerful because I happen to have the president that I want. I am not powerful because it happens to be the case that my circumstances agree with me.  “I am powerful because I choose to be a causative force in my own experience. I am powerful because I choose to be an individual who has an impact on his world without asking anyone or anything for permission. I am powerful because it is a state of mind.” Listen to the full episode to learn more.

Why the “hustle and grind” pornographers are wrong

Curt Mercadante is joined by Jordan Lieberman, Vice President & General Manager of Politics & Public Affairs at a4 Media and advertising, to discuss news, content, and advertising in a data-driven world. Curt and Jordan discuss how personalized and behaviorally-targeted advertising is influencing society, buying behavior, and politics, and the future of free speech on private social media platforms.

The future of personalized content and advertising

During the past several months, the issue of free speech and censorship on social media platforms has been in the spotlight, whether in the political realm, or regarding the dissemination of information on COVID-19. But does the first amendment right to freedom of speech apply if the “speech” in question is on a privately-owned platform, such as YouTube or Facebook? In today’s episode, Curt Mercadante discussed this issue with Jordan Lieberman, a behavioral-advertising expert who serves as vice president and general manager of politics and public affairs at a4 Media.

Does free speech exist on private platforms?

The most common question Curt asks his guests is, “What does freedom mean to you?” The most important part of that question is, “mean to you.” Because your definition of freedom might be very different from those around you, and you have to be prepared for others to misunderstand and even mock your freedom lifestyle. Keep living it, anyway.

What freedom means to YOU is what matters

In today’s episode, Curt interviews Neil C. Hughes, author of the new Amazon bestseller, "Great Ted Talks: Innovation."

How to be more innovative with Neil C. Hughes

What happens when we aren’t able to put down our phones and find time to just think, be innovative and creative? “One of the biggest casualties of our digital lifestyle is we've lost the ability to daydream,” said Neil Hughes, author, columnist and podcaster. “And I challenge anyone watching this, or listening to it later, if they sit in their favorite armchair for 10 minutes, or they've gone out for a walk, how long do they leave it before they pick up that smartphone? Because there's always a notification just waiting to give you that next dopamine hit. Some people can't even go to the toilet, the lavatory, without taking their phone in there.” Hughes, author of the Amazon bestseller, Great TED Talks: Innovation: An Unofficial Guide with Words of Wisdom from 100 TED Speakers, joins Curt Mercadante in today’s episode.

The impact of daydreaming on innovation

Steve Harvey often says to beware “telling your dreams to small-minded people.” In today’s episode, Curt Mercadante urges us to not be surprised how the “scarcity pimps” react when we share with them our big, audacious, abundant dreams.
