As a solopreneur, have you ever felt like your energy is your most limited resource? You can handle the client work, the creative thinking... but it's the constant pressure to be "on"—the networking, the social media, the self-promotion—that leaves you completely drained. It's a frustrating trap. You know you need to be visible to grow, but the very act of putting yourself out there feels like a performance that goes against your nature. You end up thinking that to succeed, you have to become someone you're not: a loud, extroverted marketer. So you hit a wall, convinced that your quiet nature is a business liability. But what if that's completely wrong? What if your introversion is actually your unfair advantage? Today, we're going to flip the script and show you how to use AI to build a business that doesn't just accommodate your introverted strengths, but is actively powered by them. And there is no one better to guide us through this than Goldie Chan. Goldie is known as the "Oprah of LinkedIn" for a reason - she's a world-renowned keynote speaker, a contributor to Forbes, and the founder of a top-tier social media strategy agency that's worked with major brands.

In this episode of What's Best For The Patient Is Best For The Business, Jerry sits down with Julia Zhou, a seasoned Healthcare Technologist with nearly 30 years of experience on both the payer and provider sides of the industry. They dive deep into the practical and transformative role of Artificial Intelligence in healthcare, moving beyond the hype to explore its real-world applications.Julia brings a unique, high-level perspective, arguing that AI is not a magic bullet but a powerful tool that must be strategically integrated. She outlines a clear framework for healthcare organizations to adopt AI successfully, emphasizing that the goal isn't to chase technology, but to solve pressing business and patient-care challenges.From smart scheduling and revenue cycle management to ambient clinical documentation and personalized patient engagement, Julia breaks down how AI can streamline workflows, empower providers, and fundamentally improve the patient journey—ensuring the right person gets the right care at the right time.Key Takeaways:• Start with the Problem, Not the Tool: The most successful AI implementations begin by identifying the organization's biggest pain points, not by searching for the latest tech developments. Julia advises asking, "If you had a magic wand, what would you solve?"• AI is an End-to-End Patient Engagement Engine: Discover how AI can revolutionize the entire patient experience—from pre-visit summaries that prepare a provider in one minute, to ambient listening during consultations, and post-visit follow-ups that improve compliance and reduce claim denials.• The Criticality of an "AI Readiness" Assessment: Before implementation, organizations must ask hard questions about their data governance, guardrails, KPIs, and manual processes. Automating an inefficient system only amplifies its problems.• Think Upstream to Prevent Chaos: Jerry and Julia challenge listeners to use AI proactively to solve problems like patient no-shows and claim denials at their source, rather than just creating bots to fill empty slots or chase down payments.• The Future is "Right Person, Right Place, Right Time": The ultimate value of AI in healthcare is its ability to act as a sophisticated triage and coordination system, ensuring patients and providers connect in the most effective and efficient manner possible, whether in-person or via telehealth.Tune in for a conversation that demystifies AI and provides an actionable roadmap for leveraging technology to enhance patient outcomes and build a stronger, more resilient healthcare business.

What Can You Actually Automate on LinkedIn (Without Getting Restricted)?This has been a huge topic lately, and for good reason.Many professionals want to save time, but they're unknowingly using tools that violate LinkedIn's user agreement.So let's clear this up once and for all.If you've ever wondered whether you can automate your LinkedIn activity, the short answer is: you really can't.The longer answer is that there are limited, compliant ways to simplify certain parts of your process.Here's what's off the table:❌ Automating connection requests❌ Automating messages❌ Automating likes, comments, or engagement❌ Scraping or exporting data from profilesThese are all major red flags for LinkedIn and can lead to account restrictions or even permanent bans.What is acceptable?✅ Scheduling your content, either directly on LinkedIn (which now allows up to 90 days in advance)✅ Using posting tools only for publishing content, not for engagement or outreachTools like Buffer, Hootsuite, or Canva can be used to pre-schedule posts across multiple platforms, but understand that connecting them to LinkedIn still carries some risk.If LinkedIn is your primary platform, it's always safest to use LinkedIn's own scheduling feature.The bottom line: LinkedIn rewards genuine activity, real conversations, authentic content, and consistent posting.Automating human connection defeats the purpose of being on the platform.Don't forget to download our FREE LinkedIn High-Impact Post Templates here: https://www.thetimetogrow.com/ecsposttemplates

In this episode of the Power Producers Podcast, host David Carothers and co-host Kyle Houck are joined by Kevin Surace, an inventor, keynote speaker, and the "father of the virtual assistant." They take a high-energy deep dive into the present-day impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the insurance industry. Kevin explains that the AI revolution is not a future event—it's happening right now. He details how AI is set to transform every aspect of insurance, from automating claims processing and quotation to serving as a powerful co-pilot for salespeople. They discuss practical, actionable ways agents can use AI today to find new clients, refine their sales pitch, and handle objections more effectively. Key Highlights: The AI Revolution is Now, Not Later Kevin Surace delivers his core message with urgency: the "train has left the station" on AI. He argues that professionals must choose to become "robot overlords"—experts in leveraging AI—or they will be crushed by competitors who do. This isn't a future trend to watch; it's a present-day reality that demands immediate adoption. Automating the Insurance Back Office The conversation explores the massive operational impact of AI. Kevin explains how AI is already capable of automating huge portions of the insurance value chain, including claims processing (issuing payments in minutes based on photos) and underwriting (generating complex quotes in real-time), which will drastically lower costs for AI-first companies. AI as a Salesperson's Superpower This highlight covers the practical tools for producers. The discussion details how agents can use AI today as a personal research assistant for meeting prep, a sales coach to "poke holes" in their pitch, and a writing assistant to instantly craft perfect responses to client objections, giving them an insurmountable edge. The Rise of the AI Agent The episode looks at the next evolution of customer interaction: AI agents (video chatbots) with realistic avatars and voice cloning. Kevin discusses his own "virtual Kevin," which holds real-time conversations with website visitors 24/7. They explore how this technology can automate Tier 1 support and even close sales for simpler products, creating new, passive revenue streams.

In this episode of the Develop This! Podcast, Dennis Fraise is joined by Ashley Canada and Eric Canada for the third installment in a four-part series on building an AI blueprint. They dive into the essential role of workforce upskilling in successful AI adoption, explaining why AI training must extend beyond technical teams to prevent the creation of a two-tier workforce. The discussion highlights how inclusive AI training not only builds employee skills but also boosts morale, engagement, and organizational growth. Listeners will gain actionable strategies for empowering employees, leveraging AI to amplify human strengths, and involving staff in identifying opportunities for AI implementation. The episode also explores quick wins that spark awareness, the evolving roles of AI in economic development organizations, and practical ways to integrate AI into a broader workforce development strategy. Key Takeaways: Upskilling the entire workforce is essential for successful AI adoption. Selective training risks creating a two-tiered workforce. AI enhances human capabilities and engagement—it doesn't replace people. Inclusive training fosters morale, ownership, and organizational alignment. Staff input is critical for identifying AI opportunities that add real value. Automating repetitive tasks frees humans for higher-value work. Understanding AI tools amplifies unique human strengths. Economic development organizations play a role in broader community AI education. Quick wins in AI training build awareness and momentum. Future-ready employees will work alongside AI copilots to achieve more.

Have you ever meant to follow up with a patient… and then life happened? The sticky notes, the to-do lists, the reminders you forgot to check, and suddenly a week  has gone by. At this point, it feels awkward to respond, and you realize you seriously dropped the ball. I've been there, and it's no fun. In this personal episode of The Clinical Entrepreneur Podcast, I'm sharing what's not been working and how I've finally figured out how to automate these follow-up tasks in a way that feels human, not robotic.  Good intentions and a memory-dependent system will never get the job done consistently. But I finally figured out how to create follow-up automations that feel human, sound human, and make the patient/recipient feel as if they're talking to me.  Here's what you'll learn in this episode: Why manual follow-ups will always break down (it's not your fault) The mindset shift that makes automation feel personal, not cold Why Practice Better or Jane can't replace a real CRM (and how they work together) The 3-step starter plan to simplify tags and build one workflow at a time Quick-win automations you can set up now… like new patient check-ins, supplement nudges, and reactivations How AI can help you write evergreen messages that sound warm and human And because I don't want you to just hear the idea, I want you to use it, I've also included a free resource with the exact Review Request Automation we use in our practice. It's short, simple, and effective. Tag the right patients, let it run, and watch those reviews come in like clockwork.

A medical career is more than treating patients. For young doctors, the hospital or clinic becomes a place where knowledge, endurance, and compassion are tested. Behind the white coat, there's a challenge often overlooked: securing your financial future while building your career. The pressure to get ahead can make it easy to focus only on work, leaving finances unprotected. Debt, delayed savings, and unplanned expenses can cost more than money. True success comes from planning, budgeting, and protecting yourself. Saving early, investing wisely, and having proper insurance may not feel exciting, but they create a foundation that lasts. Setbacks like unexpected costs or career shifts remind us that preparation and patience matter. The real goal goes beyond mastering medicine today. It is about protecting your earning potential, cultivating discipline, and building a financial foundation strong enough to support dreams for decades. In medicine and life, victories that endure come from preparation, patience, and perspective. In this episode of Time Out with the Sports Doctor, Dr. Derrick Burgess shares his journey from medical school through residency and into his early attending years, highlighting the challenges of managing student loans, budgeting, and lifestyle creep. He explains the importance of disability insurance, automating finances, paying yourself first, and building multiple income streams. We also explore how financial literacy can reduce stress, provide peace of mind, and give physicians the freedom to make career and life choices without feeling trapped.  "If you lose part of your function, you can lose your ability to take care of patients. You have to protect your ability to do your job and your ability to take care of your family, take care of yourself." - Dr. Derrick Burgess Topics Covered: (00:01:14) Milestones in Dr. Burgess' career journey (00:03:09) Financial reality and challenges in career training (00:07:43) Budgeting & frugality (00:10:24) Disability insurance & peace of mind (00:12:42) Protect your income as your biggest asset (00:15:32) Advertisement: Struggling with your finances as a young physician?

(00:29:44) Advice to young physicians Key Takeaways:   "We think about getting that dream job and living happily ever after. However, for many people, that dream job can become a nightmare." "If you don't tell your money what to do, it will do it until you deal with the consequences later." "As a surgeon, every time I walk in the operating room, I have peace of mind knowing that my hands are protected, knowing that my whole body is protected." "We have a hard time making money without working, so to speak. We're so used to being present, exchanging our time for money that it almost seems foreign that I can invest this money and I wake up in the morning and the paycheck is there." "I think we're so highly trained and so highly specialized that many times we have a hard time seeing the world outside of what we do." "The better stewards you are with your money, you're able to introduce more of those interests."

Ever had someone thank you for your marketing emails? In this conversation with Ely Delaney, "The People Whisperer" and creator of The Follow-Up Rockstar System, Cam and Otis explore the counterintuitive approach to follow-up that actually builds relationships instead of burning them."I'm an introvert," Ely reveals, surprising many who know him as a dynamic speaker and networking expert.

How Human-Centric AI Frees CSMs for Strategic Work at BMCLeading customer success at a global scale is never easy—especially after a company split. For Sofia Barbosa, this meant steering a leaner team while still supporting hundreds of BMC products worldwide. The challenge: deliver more impact with fewer hands. The solution: build Succedo, an AI platform that reimagined how her team worked. The results spoke for themselves—customer success stories accelerated from months to days, output tripled, escalations dropped, and CSMs finally had time to focus on the strategic work that drives growth.In this episode, Sofia shares the inside story of how she's embedding AI across customer success at BMC. From value summaries and training path recommendations to support prioritization and statements of work, Sofia is proving that AI isn't about replacing people—it's about elevating them. She explains how she manages change, structures her AI teams, and why she believes experimentation (and even failure) is the only way forward.What you'll learn:- How Succedo helped triple the output of customer success stories.- The role of AI in reducing escalations and improving customer sentiment.- How to build specialized AI teams inside a large enterprise.- Why “human in the loop” remains critical in AI adoption.- The mindset shift leaders need to drive AI transformation.Check out the Key Takeaways & Transcripts: https://www.gainsight.com/presents/series/unchurned/Where to Find Sofia: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/sofiabarbosa/Where to Find Josh: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jschachter/In this episode, we cover:0:00 – Preview & Introduction1:40 – Meet Sofia Barbosa (CCO, BMC Software)3:15 – Sofia's promotion and the BMC split6:53 – Why & how Succedo was born11:30 – The impact of using Succedo12:55 – Using AI to create value summaries15:40 – Creating personalized training paths with AI18:35 – AI for support: prioritization and sentiment analysis21:18 – Automating statements of work with AI24:35 – Building “Succedo Forge” and “Succedo Care” teams27:10 – Managing change and team sentiment around AI28:45 – Advice for CCOs driving AI transformationReferenced:- Sofia's post: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/sofiabarbosa_customersuccess-ai-bmc-activity-7366224818586685441-q74P

Send us a textThe gap between cloud-native and traditional networking has never been more evident. As organizations struggle with hybrid environments, finding a unified management strategy feels like searching for the mythical "one ring to rule them all."In this thought-provoking episode, we welcome Eric Chou, author, instructor, and podcast host with over a decade of experience at AWS and Azure. Eric brings a rare insider perspective on how hyperscalers approach networking fundamentally differently than traditional vendors.We explore why cloud providers built their infrastructure API-first from day one, while traditional networking vendors had to retrofit APIs onto existing hardware. This architectural distinction creates significant challenges when trying to manage both environments cohesively. Eric explains why cloud tools excel at declarative configurations while traditional networking tools often take a more procedural approach, and when each might be appropriate for your organization.The conversation takes a fascinating turn when we discuss how AI is reshaping network engineering. Are we headed toward a dangerous knowledge gap as junior engineers rely on AI without developing foundational skills? Eric advocates for an "enhance, not replace" philosophy that values human expertise while leveraging AI as a productivity multiplier. We debate whether simulation can ever truly replace the hard-earned lessons of 3 AM network outages.Whether you're managing a hybrid network environment or wondering how to prepare for an AI-driven future, this episode offers practical insights and a surprisingly optimistic outlook on the future of networking. Listen now to understand how bridging the gap between cloud and on-premises networking might be less about finding a universal tool and more about developing the right mindset and approach.Connect with Eric:Network Automation Nerds Podcast: https://packetpushers.net/podcast/network-automation-nerds/ Amazon Author Page: https://www.amazon.com/author/ericchouLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/choueric/ Network Automation Nerds Website: https://networkautomationnerds.com/ Purchase Chris and Tim's new book on AWS Cloud Networking: https://www.amazon.com/Certified-Advanced-Networking-Certification-certification/dp/1835080839/ Check out the Monthly Cloud Networking Newshttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1fkBWCGwXDUX9OfZ9_MvSVup8tJJzJeqrauaE6VPT2b0/Visit our website and subscribe: https://www.cables2clouds.com/Follow us on BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/cables2clouds.comFollow us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@cables2clouds/Follow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cables2cloudsMerch Store: https://store.cables2clouds.com/Join the Discord Study group: https://artofneteng.com/iaatj

How AI and Data Shape Modern Customer Experience and Engagement  Shep interviews Chris Koehler, Chief Marketing Officer at Twilio. He talks about creating exceptional customer experiences by leveraging personalization, customer trust, and AI.  This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more:    What defines an amazing digital customer experience today?  How can businesses personalize digital interactions?  Why is trust crucial in building long-term customer relationships?  Why is it important for companies to use customer data responsibly and transparently?  How does reducing friction impact customer satisfaction and retention?  Top Takeaways:    Personalization isn't just about using someone's name but about remembering their preferences, past actions, and making timely suggestions that fit their needs. When customers receive an experience that feels like it was made just for them, it leaves a strong, positive impression.   Customers love it when a company remembers who they are and what they like, so they don't have to repeat themselves every time they interact or use another channel to communicate.  Customers expect brands to use their data wisely and responsibly. It's not just about protecting information. It is also about applying it in ways that matter to customers. Trust is built when companies use data to solve problems or anticipate customer needs.  Transparency is the foundation of customer relationships. When companies are up front about when customers are talking to AI and make it easy for them to connect with a human when necessary, they like the experience and feel respected and cared for.   Making every step in the customer journey easy encourages customers to keep doing business with a company. If it's quick and simple to sign up, get help, or find what they need, customers are much more likely to come back.  Customers want to communicate in the way that fits their situation and preferences. Companies need to be mindful of where their customers want to interact with them, whether it is by phone, chat, email, or social media.   Different generations may have different preferences for communicating with a brand, but everyone likes having options. For example, customers may start with a chatbot but end up needing to talk to a human to solve complex or sensitive issues. Modern customer expectations include a consistently positive experience across multiple channels.  Automating routine tasks through AI can make processes faster and more consistent, but it shouldn't detract from the human element of customer service. While technology can handle simple tasks quickly and efficiently, there are complex issues that need human intervention.   Plus, Chris shares important and interesting stats on customer experience, AI, and personalization from Twilio's 2025 State of Customer Engagement Report. Tune in!  Quote:   "At the end of the day, people really don't care which channel they use. They just want the problem solved."    About:    Chris Koehler is Chief Marketing Officer at Twilio, a cloud communications platform that enables businesses to seamlessly integrate messaging, voice, and video capabilities into their applications to enhance customer engagement.    Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and host of Amazing Business Radio.    Learn more about your ad choices.

Join me as I chat with Cody Schneider about the power of using YouTube Creators for influencer marketing. Cody explains a step-by-step playbook for acquiring customers through YouTube creator partnerships. The strategy involves reaching out to 100+ creators in your niche, offering a three-video package plus affiliate commission, identifying which creators drive the most conversions, then putting top performers on monthly retainers. This creates a scalable system where you eventually have dozens of creators regularly making content about your product, with trackable ROI through affiliate links. Timestamps: 00:00 - Intro 01:03 - Why partner with Youtube Creators 04:38 - How to find and contact YouTube creators 08:11 - Crafting the email and follow-up strategy 09:26 - Overview of the Strategy 14:42 - The value of underpriced attention 19:12 - The numbers and scaling the process 22:06 - Biggest Bottleneck 22:50 - Automating the process 24:47 - Why start now Key Points: • YouTube creators + affiliate marketing is an effective strategy for getting initial customers, especially for SMB products with one killer feature • The strategy works by reaching out to creators, having them make videos about your product, and giving them affiliate commissions • This is a marketing arbitrage opportunity because many smaller creators (10k-50k subscribers) don't know how to properly price themselves • The goal is to identify underpriced creators, test them, then put the best performers on retainer to create monthly content The #1 tool to find startup ideas/trends - https://www.ideabrowser.com LCA helps Fortune 500s and fast-growing startups build their future - from Warner Music to Fortnite to Dropbox.

Snag Our Simplified Budget System! Hey budget besties!We're replaying one of our favorite conversations with our girl Judy Weber from the Bold Business. Bold Faith podcast—and y'all, it's a GOOD one. This episode is a must-listen if you've ever said:“I make good money, but I have nothing to show for it.”“I'm tired of living paycheck to paycheck.”“I have big dreams, but I'm drowning in business and personal expenses.”We got you.

The MTM Minute is a quick dose of inspiration with a powerful affirmation based on our weekly full-length episode.  And beginning this season, the MTM Minute will include a prayer of the week for 7 figure CEOs and 7 figure CEOs in the making.  That's right, you don't have to choose – you can love God AND make millions.   In this week's full length episode of the Move to Millions Podcast, Bleeding Money: 3 Revenue Leaks Keeping You From 7 Figures,  Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon discusses how entrepreneurs can increase their cashflow by addressing the key revenue leaks in their business. She focuses on the importance of pricing strategies, sales systems, and client retention for scaling a business to seven figures. Dr. Darnyelle explains how to optimize your pricing model, implement an automated sales system, and monetize existing clients to maximize revenue without doing more work. Learn how to increase your lifetime client value, stop undervaluing your services, and position your business for sustainable growth by fixing revenue leaks. This episode provides actionable tips to help you elevate your business and start generating higher profits with the current clients you already have.   This week's 7 Figure CEO Affirmation is "I am a savvy steward of my business, fully aware of the value I bring and the wealth I am creating. I understand the power of strategic pricing, efficient sales systems, and client retention, and I use these tools to maximize my revenue. I am confident in my ability to increase profits by optimizing what's already working in my business, ensuring every opportunity is leveraged for growth. My business is aligned with the seven-figure success I'm destined for, and I continuously optimize my strategies to make more while doing less."   Here are three actionable tips to anchor in this week's affirmation Audit Your Revenue Streams: Take a deep dive into all of your current revenue streams. Are there any products, services, or offers that are underperforming or not aligned with your business's growth goals? Evaluate how you can either improve, repackage, or phase out underperforming offers. Make sure each revenue stream is strategically contributing to your bottom line. Implement a Sales System That Runs Without You: Develop a system that allows you to capture, nurture, and convert leads without needing to be directly involved in every step. Automating parts of your sales process will allow you to focus on high-level tasks while still increasing your revenue. Monetize Existing Clients More Effectively: Retaining clients and upselling additional services is often more profitable than constantly seeking new clients. Create offers that allow you to continue to serve your existing clients with additional value, and establish systems to keep them engaged and loyal for the long term.   Affirm with me: "I am a savvy steward of my business, fully aware of the value I bring and the wealth I am creating. I understand the power of strategic pricing, efficient sales systems, and client retention, and I use these tools to maximize my revenue. I am confident in my ability to increase profits by optimizing what's already working in my business, ensuring every opportunity is leveraged for growth. My business is aligned with the seven-figure success I'm destined for, and I continuously optimize my strategies to make more while doing less."   And this week's journal prompts are: I recognize the following money leaks in my business... "To optimize my revenue, I will raise my prices by... "The client retention strategy I will implement to better serve my existing clients is..."   And Your Prayer Of The Week:   Dear God,   We thank You for the abundant opportunities You have placed before us. We ask for Your guidance as we step into the fullness of the value we offer and the revenue we are meant to generate. Help us recognize the leaks in our business and give us the wisdom to plug them effectively. We pray for the courage to adjust our pricing, implement a streamlined sales system, and better serve our existing clients. May our businesses grow as we honor the value we bring and position ourselves to receive the abundance You have planned for us. In Your name, I pray. And So it Is. Amen.   Ready to shift the statistics in your favor by joining the top 4.2% of all business generating 7 figures or more a year?  If you are a small business owner or entrepreneur who has crossed six figures and you're ready to play bigger, we are on a mission to help you make the move to millions.  Visit movetomillions.com to learn all the ways we can equip you to make, move and leave millions.       Want more of Darnyelle?
