Episode 67: Facilitating events with Cool People, in Cool Places
Today’s guest believes who you know is more important that what you know. His name is Travis Chappell and he’s the founder and host of the ‘Build your network’ brand, and podcast of the same name.
One of the main reasons I invited Travis on the show is because he hosts some of the coolest retreats going around. He calls these events held around the world, 'Cool People, Cool Places'. Through his network, he has incredible guest speakers + creates memorable and transformative trips, and deeper connections for everyone involved, all while having fun in beautiful parts of the world.
On this episode, Travis shares how he structured the retreat to allow these life-long friendships to be formed, how he developed his skills for public speaking and why he thinks 'small talk' is important.
