What does it take to launch a business that's both professionally successful and personally fulfilling? On this week's episode of That Entrepreneur Show, we're welcoming back Cesar Cervantes, a self-proclaimed "ham" who started his career on stage as a stand-up comedian and accidentally became a leader in the world of professional speaking.

Cesar's entrepreneurial journey is a powerful testament to the idea that your most authentic self is your most valuable asset. He'll share the pivotal moments that led him to leave his successful comedy career, including being a featured comedian on Comedy Central and sharing the stage with greats like George Lopez. You'll hear how teaching a comedy class for fun reignited his creative spark and revealed his true calling: helping others find their voice.

We'll dive into the story behind Top Talks and his TEDx Mentorship Program, which has helped over 200 clients land and deliver a powerful TEDx Talk. Cesar will reveal the key lessons he's learned, from the mistakes he made as a new speaker to the core principles he applies from comedy to business—like the importance of putting the audience first and not being afraid to fail.

This conversation is a must-listen for anyone who's ever felt stuck or disconnected from their work. Cesar’s story proves that the journey to building a thriving business can be inspired by the most unexpected passions and that finding your purpose can lead to the greatest success. Oh, and he will talk about his brand new book!

What does it take to launch a startup when you're "late to the entrepreneurial game"? This week on That Entrepreneur Show, we're joined by Chris Argo, a software veteran with over 30 years in the industry. After decades of giving his creativity to others, Chris was laid off and decided to turn a 10-year-long nights-and-weekends project into his life's work.

In this episode, Chris shares his unique journey developing Buynow.io, a platform he has built almost entirely by himself. We’ll discuss the shift from being a developer to becoming a full-fledged entrepreneur, and how his background—from writing software on punch cards to working on IBM mini computers—informs his approach to business.

Chris opens up about the compulsion to succeed, the lessons he’s learned along the way, and why he believes his 'Buynow, do good' slogan gives his company a fighting chance in a crowded market.

This is a must-listen for any entrepreneur who believes that patience, persistence, and a little bit of creative obsession can lead to a breakthrough, no matter where you are in your career.
