Breaking Barriers by Adapting Social
Breaking Barriers Celebrates 8 Years helping Entrepreneurs and motivated people learn and grow through the painful, yet true journeys of our guests. CEO & Founder of Adapting Social (Global Ad & Design Agency), John A. Vagueiro, created this podcast to provide valuable content to entrepreneurs starting, struggling or wanting to take their shit to the next level! We are blessed to have the help of successful founders, artists, actors, athletes, and television personalities who share their stories and how they broke out of their barriers to create success in their lives. They discuss their journey while cutting out the "sexy" elements and focusing on the challenges they faced that led them to break through the success barrier. Any fool can learn from their own mistakes, it takes a wise person to learn from others.

Marketing Strategist, Copywriter, & Media Buyer - Matthew Iglesias
In this episode we have the opportunity to speak with entrepreneur Matthew Iglesias, who is a marketing strategist, copywriter, and media buyer. We discuss the positives of being vulnerable and why it can help you in networking. Many people see vulnerability as being a weakness and are afraid that if they open up, people will see them as weak, but what many don’t realize is that it will make you appear human and humble, which draws people to you and gains a large amount of respect from them. We discuss goal making and Matthew tells us the importance of going over your goals more than once a day and the importance of discipline in being successful.

“I was thinking about this the other day, I was like, ‘Why is it that athletes and musicians are the biggest celebrities in the world?’ It’s because they entertain. Humans want to be entertained almost more than anything else. If you’re a business who is trying to create that raving fan effect, you have to entertain your customers while simultaneously educating them on the product, and when those two come together, it’s a very good recipe for you being able to not only to get them to convert into customers, but to retain as customers and become raving fans.” 29:25
