#10 Skip Cummins - Founder, CEO & Author of 'Mastering You from the Inside Out'

Skip Cummins is the author of the new book, "Mastering You from the Inside Out, survive and thrive personally and professionally" currently available on Amazon.
Here are some questions from Skip to you... 1. Are you stuck personally or professionally? 2. Have you ever had your ass kicked? Been fired, gone through a divorce, been demoted, been betrayed by someone you trusted? 3. Have you ever said or thought, “I sure wish I knew then what I know now?” If your answer to any of those questions is yes, I can help. Why? Because I’ve been there done that! Several years ago after improving the lives of hundreds of thousands of people touched by treatment-resistant illnesses and creating over $1 billion in public shareholder value, false allegations took away everything I worked my entire life for…my reputation, my CEO job making over $600,000/year, my career, some $50 million of my net worth, my identity. And ultimately my family. But just like every problem you’ll face in your lifetime, my seemingly insurmountable ass-kicking gave me a huge opportunity to take a long hard, brutally honest look at what I did to facilitate that ass-kicking, identify everything I know NOW that I wish I knew THEN that would have prevented that ass-kicking, and create and implement a plan to ensure that it never happens again! How can I help you? My newfound knowledge inspired me to write Mastering You in which I (1) share with you not only my extraordinary successes, but also the unimaginable tragedies I’ve overcome and most importantly, my opportunities of a lifetime killing mistakes and failures, and (2) provide you with a proven formula and the tools to empower you to master you from the inside out so that you can be more successful than me, make fewer mistakes, have fewer failures and realize not squander more of your opportunities of a lifetime.

#4 Abandon Ship! A nostalgic indie rock band

Hampshire, UK-based Abandon Ship! are a nostalgic indie rock with anthemic group vocals and catchy hooks. The band was born in 2017 when old friends Luke Burywood (Vocals/Guitar) and Jordan Baggs (Lead Guitar/Backing Vocals) reconnected in the hinterland of Basingstoke, England. Drawn to the spit, grime and alternative music scene of now-defunct rock bar Sanctuary, the pair were soon to co-opt Martin Sylvester (ex-Mary Kelly) to drumming duties with Clayton Deakin (bass) completing the line-up. Taking inspiration from the music and ambitions of Foals, The 1975 and Japanese House, while absorbing influences as diverse as Death Cab for Cutie, Sticky Fingers, American Football and PUP, Abandon Ship! are determined not to place limits around their emerging sound. The band have been busy raising their profile at live dates throughout 2019; at Tramlines Fringe Festival where Noel Galligher headlined and most recently on tour alongside TUYS. Previously the band have provided support to Larkins, Milk Teeth and Muncie Girls in front of sold-out crowds. Their songs draw on first and second-hand observations of the pleasures and disaffections of post-millennial Britain modern tales which oscillate in an emotional wasteland between swagger and self-doubt. A self-produced de-but EP mastered by Robin Scmidt (The 1975, Everything Everything, Blur) will gradually come into focus by early 2020. Whether the lyrics are using The Mezingers as inspiration to create the character Casey on Say The Word or having the realisations of coming to age on Wrong Again “so I’ll get my haircut and start using my first name”, two things are always present- real-world youthful observations whilst remaining fun and infectious.
