  • Masterminding Success and Balance (Jay Fairbrother)

    Masterminding Success and Balance (Jay Fairbrother)
    Jun 14 2024

    Drawing from his transformative journey, Jay Fairbrother shares how personal loss and early struggles shaped his path as an entrepreneur. With insights on masterminds and work-life balance, Jay reveals the power of human connection and resilience in making it through life’s ups and downs.

    Making It! explores the lives and stories of entrepreneurs as they share their unique perspectives on their success and the path to making it.


    “The mistake a lot of people make is they keep hanging on to what got them there instead of evolving and adapting.”— Jay Fairbrother

    Guest Bio:

    Jay Fairbrother is a serial entrepreneur, business coach, and mastermind guru with 30 years of experience starting, buying, and selling 7-figure businesses. Jay’s story includes losing EVERYTHING after the 2010 financial crisis and rising from the shame to shine as The Mastermind Guy.

    His own participation in masterminds fueled his first business to $10 million annual revenues before selling it in 2004. During his crash and burn after the Great Recession, when he went from multi-millionaire living in a mansion to bankrupt and living in a friend’s basement, his mastermind tribe literally gave him purpose and kept him alive.

    Jay has owned nine businesses in six different industries, and his success and massive failures are the fuel from which he imparts his wisdom around entrepreneurship, sales and marketing, and scaling businesses. His story is one of resiliency and reinvention.

    Jay’s focus is on helping coaches, speakers, healers, and thought leaders create their own mastermind or hybrid programs to scale their business and deliver massive client transformations. His mission is to create more human connection on the planet... one mastermind at a time.

  • Breaking Chains and Building Dreams (Sandra Johnson)

    Breaking Chains and Building Dreams (Sandra Johnson)
    May 3 2024
    From humble beginnings, Sandra Johnson sees education as the pathway out of adversity. With a belief in breaking cycles and aiding others, she, alongside her partner, started a university, embodying her convictions about lifelong learning and community empowerment. In this Part 2 episode (with Part 1 featuring her husband and business partner, Marco), we hear Sandra tell of her childhood in a challenging neighborhood where education was not prioritized, leading her to face numerous obstacles from a young age, including living in poverty and experiencing violence. Determined to break the cycle, Sandra pursued education relentlessly, despite being unaware of available financial aid and feeling out of place in her initial university environment. From that, Sandra shares her path to making it, the lessons learned along the way, and how she and Marco continue to drive forward, turning every challenge into an opportunity for growth and innovation. Join us as Sandra provides inspiration and insights on how adversity can fuel a purpose-driven life. Welcome to Making It! This weekly show explores the lives and stories of entrepreneurs as they share their unique perspectives on their success and the path to making it. “It's such a rush. . . founding a university, to see these kids, these young adults, finding their purpose and seeing that rush on them. And they're unstoppable, [as] they become successful.”— Sandra Johnson Guest Bio: Sandra Johnson is currently the owner and co-founder of Accreditation Advisors Group and has dedicated much of her life to the education of others. Immigrating to Lancaster, California, from Chile in 1970, Sandra attributes her success to her parents, who continually challenged her to overcome obstacles. Arriving in the United States in the first grade and speaking very little English, Sandra soon became the school’s translator, bridging the language gap between administrators and Spanish-speaking students — all while growing up in a tough neighborhood and, at times, receiving government assistance. Sandra’s childhood experience set the foundation of her passion: changing lives through education. Previously, Sandra was the CFO and Co-Founder of the University of Antelope Valley. Since its inception in 1997, Sandra has overseen her company’s transformation from a small CPR company start-up into a nationally accredited higher education institution. The University of Antelope Valley has graduated over 1,000 students a year, with programs ranging from the master’s-level to career-specific certificates. The University employed over 100 residents and had two campuses, an athletics program, and over 30 academic programs and certifications. Sandra and her husband decided to retire from the University and sold the University of Antelope Valley in July 2022. They felt this would be the best move for the community to bring investors with higher volumes of funds to quickly assist in making the university a local mark and a global one. Sandra has become a focal business leader in the Antelope Valley, earning the 2009 City of Lancaster’s Citizen of the Year Award, recognized jointly with Marco Johnson — her husband and co-founder of the university. In 2012, she obtained strong community support in her successful run for a seat on the Lancaster City Council. She recently addressed a Congressional Woman’s Conference on entrepreneurial fundamentals. She attributes her success to putting vision before profit. Sandra and Marco continually give back to the Antelope Valley community, supporting local charity and family shelter organizations, hosting community outreach events at the University, and assisting local entrepreneurs with guidance and support. Sandra obtained a Master’s in Education with a Specialization in Curriculum Development and Outcomes Assessment and a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, both from Aspen University.

    Saving Lives and Sharing Knowledge (Marco Johnson)
    Apr 19 2024
    Welcome to Making It! This weekly show explores the lives and stories of entrepreneurs as they share their unique perspectives on their success and the path to making it.Marco Johnson is a former NFL player, former Los Angeles firefighter and paramedic, co-founder of The University of Antelope Valley, and co-founder of Accreditation Advisors Group.“After my wife and I were grinding away, we kind of took a step back and said, ‘Hey, this is an opportunity for us to establish our community’s own traditional, regionally accredited university.’”— Marco JohnsonMarco Johnson is the owner and co-founder (with his wife, Sandra) of Accreditation Advisors Group, an education advisory firm.Johnson’s road to entrepreneurship was a winding one. He earned a bachelor's degree in political science and marketing at the University of Hawaii, where he was a star wide receiver for the university team. After graduation, the Houston Oilers (now the Tennessee Titans) drafted Johnson in the 10th round of the 1988 NFL draft. He played two seasons on special teams for the Oilers and the Los Angeles Rams before trading his football for a fire hose.Johnson witnessed hundreds of unnecessary civilian casualties throughout his career due to a lack of civilian cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and first-aid training. The most disturbing event for him occurred on Christmas Eve, 1996. Johnson and his colleagues were battling a raging blaze in Los Angeles; a single mother and her three children were trapped inside a burning apartment building. While firefighters successfully rescued the family from the inferno, two children suffered respiratory failure and died before firefighters or emergency personnel could save them. The third child died in the rescue unit.Johnson believes that if onlookers and passers-by had been trained in the most basic CPR and emergency assistance methods, one or perhaps all of the children would have survived. This tragic event prompted him and his wife to start a CPR school, initially as a side business.That school grew to become the nationally accredited University of Antelope Valley. The university graduates more than 1,000 students a year, with programs ranging from master’s-level degrees to career-specific certificates. The university employs more than 100 people and has two campuses, an athletics program, and more than 30 academic programs and certifications. Marco and his wife decided to retire from the university and sold it in July 2022. They felt that the best move for the community was to bring investors with higher volumes of funds.Marco is a recognized business leader in the Antelope Valley, earning the 2009 City of Lancaster’s Citizen of the Year Award. He and Sandra continually give back to the Antelope Valley community, supporting local charity and family shelter organizations, hosting community outreach events, and assisting local entrepreneurs with guidance and support.Marco is the father of two wonderful children, Devion and Tiffany. He obtained a Master's in Education from the University of Hawaii.Resources or websites mentioned in this episode:MiraseeMarco’s website: AAGTeam.orgFor show notes, visit Saving Lives and Sharing Knowledge (Marco Johnson)Credits:Co-Producers: Cassandra Topperwien and Geoff GovertsenSupervising Producer: Cynthia LambAssembled by: Andrew ChapmanAudio Editor: Marvin del RosarioExecutive Producer: Danny InyMusic Soundscape: Chad Michael SnavelyMaking our hosts sound great: Home Brew AudioMusic credits:Track Title: The Sunniest KidsArtist Name: Rhythm ScottWriter Name: Scott RoushPublisher Name: A SOUNDSTRIPE PRODUCTIONTrack Title: Love and CircumstanceArtist Name: ShimmerWriter Name: Matthew WigtonPublisher Name: A SOUNDSTRIPE PRODUCTIONTrack Title: Tales from the PastArtist Name: Adam SabanWriter Name: Medhat HanbaliPublisher Name: A SOUNDSTRIPE PRODUCTIONSpecial effects credits:24990513_birds-chirping_by_promission used with permission of the author and under license by AudioJungle/Envato Market.To catch the great episodes coming up on Making It, please follow us on Mirasee FM's YouTube channelor your favorite podcast player.
