Manage episode 481217124 series 3276310
In this inspiring episode of Expert Empires, Nick James sits down with Vishen Lakhiani, founder of Mindvalley and headline speaker for Expert Empires 2025.
Vishen shares the surprising story of how Mindvalley began as a side project selling meditation CDs and grew into a global personal development platform.
Learn how a Jim Carrey-inspired vision exercise in 1995 set Vishen on a path to deliver "a billion dollars worth of value to the world," why his first three business ideas failed, and his counterintuitive approach to entrepreneurship: prioritising personal growth over profits.
Vishen reveals the secret behind Mindvalley's successful membership model and offers powerful insights for experts and entrepreneurs on building a business that becomes a vehicle for massive personal development and global impact.

ABOUT THE HOST
Nick James
Nick dropped out of university at the age of 21 and failed spectacularly with his first coaching business, which forced him to take a £16k/yr telesales job.
Within 12 months he was the top performer and left to start his second business at 24. This time he discovered a winning formula and before long had a multi-six-figure company.
He then made a huge mistake which nearly put him out of business and cost him £50,000 in personal cash!
Fortunately, Nick kept it afloat, turned it around, and sold that business 2 years later in a seven-figure deal.
He then co-founded a multi-million-pound marketing company, which he exited in 2015, and created Expert Empires.
Today, Expert Empires is known as the UK's number one business event for Experts, with world-renowned celebrity speakers like Gary Vaynerchuk, Grant Cardone, Chalene Johnson, David Goggins, and Lewis Howes gracing the stage.
Nick also specialises in helping Coaches, Consultants, Speakers, Trainers, and Authors take their businesses from zero to six figures and beyond through his Expert Empires Mastermind programme.
