Ep. 57: Speaker/Trainer/Coach, Zach Slobin
Madly in love with his wife. Natural philosopher. And producer of his own life.
These three things pretty much sum up Zach Slobin and his insatiable desire to knock, question the everyday rules and then bend life to create massive freedom, joy, and abundance.
After weathering life’s natural ups and downs, being lost in “finding his purpose,” and navigating through the inevitable entrepreneurial storms, he can tell you the stories of hitting several physical, emotional, spiritual and financial bottoms.
He’s the athlete who almost went pro, but severe injuries kept him from his dream.
He’s the top guy who walked away from a good corporate job (and the money), because it was suffocating.
He’s the man who wouldn’t settle until he found his soulmate.
And he’s the entrepreneur who was so committed to excellence, he created financial freedom at just 34 years of age.
Grateful for the lessons all the losses have taught him, one thing is for sure–he can show you how you to play the game of life and win it.
As a Master Speaker, Trainer and Coach, Zach’s greatest thrill in life is showing people how to go from where they are to where they deserve to be by removing the BS lies they tell themselves, so they can be, do and have ANYTHING they desire.

Zach Slobin – Show Notes
How did you get started in entrepreneurship?
Zach has been an entrepreneur since he was seven years old. He was also a strong athlete growing up and wanted to continue by playing sports professionally. Due to an injury sustained in college, this didn’t happen.
“That is when I had my first life existential crisis. Who am I? If I’m not an athlete then what am I supposed to be doing with my life?”
One day while Zach was flying to LA, he picked up a book called “Ask And It Is Given” by Esther and Jerry Hicks.
“It was a book that to this day I give credit as being the premier book that changed my life.”
He shares about many opportunities that didn’t work out for him, from a coffee business to real estate, because of CEO’s running off with the money and markets crashing.
“I went completely broke; at 27 I was living on my mom’s couch and I thought my entire world had completely collapsed.”
Two and a half years later, Zach was slowly building himself back up and that is when he met a woman how would become his partner in business and in life. They started a health and wellness Internet marketing company. At the ages of 34 and 32 respectively, they are now in financial freedom.
“What has really been so amazing is now here I am really living my passion, really doing what I want to be doing.”
What are the five factors of good business?
Zach’s five factors of small shifts that he has made in his Internet marketing business to find success are:
1-Make healthy choices for your business versus smart choices
2-Be steadfast in your process
3-Be consistent and congruent in your behavior
4-Patient Urgency
5-Stay on FIYR (Firm in your result)
He adds that it is really important as business owners to really reflect on what is working. It’s important to start asking questions about what is working and where tiny shifts have to be made along the way.
What is your greatest challenge?
Zach’s greatest challenge was when he was at his lowest, living on the couch at his mother’s house, being completely broke and thinking everyone was right about him not being able to succeed.
“I was starting to believe the idea that maybe everybody was right, maybe they were right about me living in a fantasyland.”
What was your biggest success?
“I’ve just been so blessed over the course of a month or so, I received hundreds if not thousands of text messages and Facebook messages from people that are in our organization or people that are plugging into the stuff I am doing. Just to thank me for paying forward what I’ve learned.”
What book has impacted you the most?
Zach has been influenced greatly by many books, most notably “Ask and It Is Given” By Esther and Jerry Hicks, “Conversations with God, The Series” By Neale Donald Walsch, “The Four Agreements” by Don Miguel Ruiz, “The Untethered Soul” by Michael A Singer, “The New Coat of the Extraordinary Mind” by Vishen Lakhiani, “Money Master the Game” by Tony Robbins, “The Go Giver” by Bob Burg and “Greater Than Yourself” by Steve Farber
