Professional baseball has featured a bevy of superstars over the past century and a half, but only a few of them have impacted their sport and cities as deeply as Willie McCovey and Billy Williams. Born just a handful of miles apart in 1938, they grew up in and around one of the sport's true cradles, Mobile, Alabama, on their way to producing two iconic careers in Major League Baseball. In A Time for Reflection: The Parallel Legacies of Baseball Icons Willie McCovey and Billy Williams (Rowman & Littlefield, 2025), Jason Cannon examines these two legends of the game. Overcoming the heinous racism of the Jim Crow South as part of the second generation of African American major leaguers who followed in the footsteps of Jackie Robinson, they became two of baseball's all-time greatest players. Off the field, they took impactful stands for racial progress that continue to resonate today. Their personal resolve, leadership in the clubhouse, and dedication to their baseball communities endeared them to teammates and fans alike. Featuring original interviews with family members, friends, teammates, and Williams himself, A Time for Reflection brings to life their monumental accomplishments on the diamond, while also detailing how McCovey and Williams grew into pillars of San Francisco and Chicago and inspired future generations of ballplayers. Paul Knepper covered the New York Knicks for Bleacher Report. His first book was The Knicks of the Nineties: Ewing, Oakley, Starks and the Brawlers That Almost Won It All.

As we navigate the hard market, securing carrier appointments, and the effects of industry consolidation, especially on smaller agencies, the road ahead is anything but smooth. I share personal insights on these hurdles and how the volatile political climate of an election year could further complicate our landscape.

These elements are all pivotal in our strategic approach to future-proofing our agencies.

I discuss the strategies for managing these distractions in the workplace and present the case for embracing remote work, highlighting the immense value of expanding our talent pool beyond geographical boundaries. Virtual assistants and the untapped potential of underrepresented demographics, such as single parents, could be the game-changers we need. Flexible working conditions might just be the key to unlocking new levels of productivity and commitment.

Living on the Narrow Path  Billy Williams pt 2 In Matthew chapter seven, Jesus told us to be careful on which path we choose to follow. His advice: “Take the narrow path.”  That is what we will be discussing today. Amen! With so many religious doctrines floating around out there right now, living on the “Narrow Path” is definitely needed to keep our feet on the right path to salvation. Amen! Our guest today is the author of a book titled, “The Narrow Path.” Pastor Billy Williams was raised in Los Angeles.  His story did not start off with what most people will think is blessed. He was SOLD as a baby. Amen.  He suffered many disappointments over his life. Rejection being one of them that he had to conquer. Amen. A US Army Veteran, Pastor Billy Williams is now in the Army of God. He is the pastor of an online church called, “Unity Christian Fellowship” in New Mexico.  He also has television program called, “Living the Narrow Path”. He is here today to talk about his book, “Living on the Narrow Path” and how that is especially important with all that is happening right now in this world in which we live. This is part two of our interview. How and why did you get started in media ministry? You share that when things look tough, we should never give up – but continue to strive for the high mark which is in Christ Jesus. Amen!  Share about how you encourage people with that message… What do you see happening today that reinforces the need for that message to continue to be broadcast far and wide? Pastor, this has been so interesting. What is your message you would like to leave with our audience today? If someone wants to obtain a copy of your book, “Living on the Narrow Path,” how can they do that? Is it on Amazon? If someone would like to reach out to you, to ask a question or perhaps do an interview such as this, how can they do that? How can someone get in touch with you? If someone is in the New Mexico area, how can they watch or listen to your program? Of course, they can tap into your website to watch or listen, correct? I'll put links to all of this in the show notes below. Folks, this day and time we are living in is growing darker, in the natural, every single day. Think about… the COVID pandemic; the recession, inflation, wars and rumors of wars… now, Israel is surrounded by her enemies.  Does any of this sound familiar?

In this episode of The Power Producers Podcast, David Carothers and co-host Kyle Houck interview Dr. Billy Williams, President of Inspire a Nation Business Mentoring, and Author of the Sales Objection Pocket Guide. Dr. Billy Williams discusses his latest game-changer book, the "Sales Objections Pocket Guide", the art of navigating sales objections across various industries, and his unique 5543 formula - a strategic approach to handling objections and rejections. Episode Highlights: Dr. Billy Williams mentions that he wrote the book “The Sales Objection Pocket Guide” to provide guidance and scripts for individuals, including his team, who lacked the skills to effectively respond to objections and add value in sales conversations. (6:23) Dr. Billy Williams explains that personalization and attention to detail are crucial in engaging and converting potential customers and following a formula of features, benefits, consequences, and price is essential in establishing value. (14:56) Dr. Billy Williams shares that by using the CPA formula (common prospect action), salespeople can effectively show their value and create an elevator pitch that grabs attention and leads to further conversation. (27:21) Dr. Billy Williams mentions that the main problem in prospecting is not knowing what to say, which is why the sales objection Pocket Guide was created to provide practical examples for salespeople to add value to their conversations. (37:44) Dr. Billy Williams emphasizes the importance of salespeople focusing on selling rather than admin tasks. (48:00) Dr. Billy Williams discusses the importance of having a systematic approach and following a structured system to effectively handle objections and succeed in various situations. (57:17) Tweetable Quotes: “The nice thing about this pocket guide is that it has spanned industries, you know, we sold 6000 copies the first week, and I probably say maybe 1000 of those was insurance.” - Dr. Billy Williams “Everything I do is a system from the way I play golf, to the way I cook food to the way I exercise, everything for me has to be about a system.” - Dr. Billy Williams “When we do prospect, we don't know what to say, right? We don't have a clue how to actually add value to our conversations when we're prospecting. So that's why I wrote the sales objection Pocket Guide.” - Dr. Billy Williams Resources Mentioned: Dr. Billy Williams LinkedIn Inspire a Nation Business Mentoring Book: The Sales Objection Pocket Guide David Carothers Kyle Houck Florida Risk Partners The Extra 2 Minutes

Dr. Billy Williams discusses his latest game-changer book, the "Sales Objections Pocket Guide", the art of navigating sales objections across various industries, and his unique 5543 formula - a strategic approach to handling objections and rejections. Episode Highlights: Dr. Billy Williams mentions that he wrote the book “The Sales Objection Pocket Guide” to provide guidance and scripts for individuals, including his team, who lacked the skills to effectively respond to objections and add value in sales conversations. (6:23) Dr. Billy Williams explains that personalization and attention to detail are crucial in engaging and converting potential customers and following a formula of features, benefits, consequences, and price is essential in establishing value. (14:56) Dr. Billy Williams shares that by using the CPA formula (common prospect action), salespeople can effectively show their value and create an elevator pitch that grabs attention and leads to further conversation. (27:21) Dr. Billy Williams mentions that the main problem in prospecting is not knowing what to say, which is why the sales objection Pocket Guide was created to provide practical examples for salespeople to add value to their conversations. (37:44) Dr. Billy Williams emphasizes the importance of salespeople focusing on selling rather than admin tasks. (48:00) Dr. Billy Williams discusses the importance of having a systematic approach and following a structured system to effectively handle objections and succeed in various situations. (57:17) Tweetable Quotes: “The nice thing about this pocket guide is that it has spanned industries, you know, we sold 6000 copies the first week, and I probably say maybe 1000 of those was insurance.” - Dr. Billy Williams “Everything I do is a system from the way I play golf, to the way I cook food to the way I exercise, everything for me has to be about a system.” - Dr. Billy Williams “When we do prospect, we don't know what to say, right? We don't have a clue how to actually add value to our conversations when we're prospecting. So that's why I wrote the sales objection Pocket Guide.” - Dr. Billy Williams Resources Mentioned: Dr. Billy Williams LinkedIn Inspire a Nation Business Mentoring Book: The Sales Objection Pocket Guide David Carothers Kyle Houck Florida Risk Partners The Extra 2 Minutes

So video proposals are huge.” - Dr. Billy Williams “It doesn't matter what you do when you're here. What matters is what you leave when you're gone. And those are the kind of legacy impact things that I want to leave.” - Dr. Billy Williams “Those are the two legs: discipline or regret. You're either going to do it, or you're going to feel bad that you didn't do it. So discipline or regret, which one do you want to wake up with every day?” - Dr. Billy Williams Resources Mentioned: Dr. Billy Williams LinkedIn Inspire a Nation Business Mentoring Reach out to Mitch Gibson

I took a dive, but I've got a second chance. I just landed my lucky break, got the band back together for another take. I was "ciao", but now I'm wide awake.   I let my life go completely receding to a far away shore. Now I've returned so sweetly, back in the flesh, and ready for more.   I can feel my feet, I can sing and dance, I've returned to wearin' my shirt and pants, I've got a second chance. And I'm carrying a jewel, and I don't wanna drop it, I would be such a foo-el if I should ever stop making the most of this second chance!   My days were numbered, I lumbered, feeling so encumbered by fate, but having dozed and slumbered, I'm back in the race, and I'm feeling great... There's a tear somewhere in the grand design that I should have crossed that finish line and kept on running, Lord how I feel so fine!   Now I have got another shot, I've entered a bonus round, and I would never have thought there could exist this delicious twist in the plot... The curtain was closed, and the show was done, but the producer introduced an extended run. We made a pact, and now another act has begun.   The show keeps going and going, I know it's gonna grow and thrive. I'm overflowing just owing to being alive! I am gonna survive...   I'm living up my second chance, I'm gonna work this perk in my circumstance. I was revived, and I survived, my day has arrived, I'm gonna thrive, and I'm still alive cause I've got a second chance... ...and I know I never want to lose my second chance!
