Listen "Episode 38 - Creating Economic Engines Around Your Life Purpose - Part 1 with Dame Doria Cordova"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode Host Helen Lee interviews Dame Doria Cordova, the CEO / Owner of Excellerated Business Schools and Money & You, global organisations operating since 1979 with over 200,000 graduates from over 85 countries. Her purpose in life is to uplift humanity's consciousness through socially-responsible businesses, to teach people to create economic engines around their life purpose.
Doria’s organisation has already created many entrepreneurs who have produced businesses using socially responsible methods, placing the Earth and its resources and humanity at their forefront. Helen and Doria discuss her organisation of experiential, transformational and entrepreneurial education, her early career and epiphany leading to her complete change of purpose, the key figures in her career and their influence on her, the nature of the transformational training industry, the eradication of hunger and her mission.
These key figures included Buckminster Fuller and Marshall Thurber. The latter is said to have been named the godfather of business and has been responsible for teaching some of the world's greatest business minds including Tony Robbins, Robert Kiyosaki and Jack Canfield through the Money & You program he created together with Bobbi DePorter. And Doria then partnered Robert Kiyosaki for 9 years to bring the program to Asia Pacific.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Originally a Court Reporter working in Los Angeles and Hawaii, Dame Doria had an epiphany in 1976 which set her on a very different path.
Doria, after involvement in The Hunger Project realised that her life purpose was to work towards ending world hunger and poverty on a global scale.
The transformational training industry is currently worth about 100 billion a year, including all of the different facets contained within, and Doria is a key representational figure for that industry.
The core of what Excellerated Business Schools and Money & You teaches helps its graduates to create a supportive economic system around their life purpose.
Doria was knighted as Dame of Honor by The Sovereign Order of the Orthodox Order of St. John – Russian Grand Priory for her lifelong service to humanity. She was later advanced to Dame Commander of Grace, and then to Chancellor of the California Priory of the Order for her contribution to the growth of the Order.
BEST MOMENTS
‘I was very blessed. I attended the first business school for entrepreneurs of its kind in 1978, so the business school was created in 1978 and Money and You was launched in 1979, and that’s the work that I originally inherited.’ – Dame Doria
‘That was when I had this sense that I had a job to do in the world and not be a party girl. Not that I was that much of a party girl but, you know, I just thought I’d spend a lot of money travelling, having fun and being a 26 year old!’ – Dame Doria
‘We have a tremendous history in the industry but ultimately Marshall and Bobbi were the people that created that industry.’ – Dame Doria
‘He just takes me to the most beautiful divine life that I have had. I just keep going more internal, and focusing more on love, and love and light, and letting go of everything that’s fear based and anything that creates fear in other human beings.’ – Dame Doria
‘Why has your program influenced and impacted so many people who are well known like Tony Robbins and was it Jack Canfield as well?” – Helen. ‘And Mark Victor Hansen, Chicken Soup for the Soul, yeah.’ – Dame Doria
‘The way that I was placed in the Universe was for me to “support and lead an organisation that was going to churn out social entrepreneurs that were going to go and do good work in the world.”’ – Dame Doria
‘Together, as we, ourselves, transform and thrive, we will make sure that all of humanity does so as well and we will co-create a whole new world.’ – Helen
