We've all been there, when a great idea turns out to be, well, not so great? We've all been there, right? That lightning bolt moment where we think, “This is it! This is the idea that's going to change everything.” And then reality sets in. To share her own “What Was I Thinking?” moment, I've invited my friend Jen Edds, the head brassy boss at Brassy Broadcasting Company. Jen had a vision of launching a daily podcast—short, punchy, and everywhere. But just before jumping in, she took a step back and asked herself the tough questions: Was this the right show? Was this sustainable? And most importantly, was this for her audience? What she discovered might just save you from your next over-ambitious content plan. So, grab a cup of coffee and get ready for some laughs, lessons, and a little tough love on making your marketing work for you. Key Takeaways: Just because an idea is exciting doesn't mean it's the right fit—evaluate sustainability before diving in. Content should serve your ideal audience, not just chase algorithms. Marketing your content is just as important as creating it—don't forget to promote! Be flexible! You can always pivot and adjust your content strategy as you learn more about what works. Whether you're launching a podcast, writing a blog, or creating video content, Jen's story is a reminder that strategy matters more than sheer volume. And sometimes, the best decision is to scale back before you burn out. Jenn Edds is the Head Broad in Charge at the Brassy Broadcasting Company

Welcome back to our Creativity Miniseries on Don't Cut Your Own Bangs! We're diving into the next (and sweatiest) stage of creativity:  perspiration! This is where ideas move from being dreams and start becoming reality. I'm joined once again by my brilliant friend, Emily H. Sutherland—a ghostwriter, published author, coach, and executive storyteller. Together, we're getting real about what it takes to push past resistance, embrace creativity, and bring your ideas to life.   We use our own messy, sweaty experiences—including my upcoming children's book—to illustrate the difference between “just do it” sweating and “shame” sweating. And, we share how movement, breath work, and self-imposed deadlines can help you power through creative roadblocks.  If you've ever felt stuck between having a great idea and making it happen, this episode is your ticket to action—no perfection required.

We've talked about the downward spiral in previous episodes. You know, that moment when you make a mistake, can't get out of your own head, and then the wheels fall off. We've all been there. What if you flipped that concept and started building on the little things you are doing right? This episode was inspired by a recent episode of The Diary of a CEO podcast hosted by Steven Bartlett. He and his guest, Daniel Priestly, talked about the upward spiral and how it had the power to compound your success.  We discuss the power of intention, mindset, embracing the learning process, and celebrating the small wins, no matter what color your belt. (00:00) What is the upward spiral?

From battling with self-doubt to finding inspiration in the daily struggles, we explore the multifaceted impact of Jiu-Jitsu and life on and off the mat. Life outside of Jiu-Jitsu can affect our performance on the mat. Factors such as sleep, nutrition, and mental well-being play a crucial role in how we show up and our ability to engage effectively. Our time practicing Jiu-Jitsu shapes how we show up in life off the mat. How do we leave a tough day on the mats at the gym and not take it home with us?  We need to have strategies and practices to handle the rough days to reap the benefits of the resilience they create in us.

Picture it: you're the only woman in your Jiu-Jitsu class. You've shown up consistently, you work hard, you're training for your next tournament, but now there's a new twist. Your coach expects you always to be the one to train with every new woman who walks through the door. Your frustration builds, and you wonder, “Am I the jerk for feeling this way?”. We have big thoughts on this topic because everyone has something at stake. You want more women doing Jiu-Jitsu because you would like to compete with someone in your age and weight class, but you need to focus on your training, and it feels like your coach is taking you for granted. Your coach wants more students, and he knows you're like the Mister Rogers of the Mat. You make everyone feel safe and welcome, so he picks you.  And then…there's the new girl who wants to learn a new skill and build her self-confidence.  What do you? We are exploring the nuances of this balancing act for everyone.   The Highlight Reel (06:49) Tips for making everyone feel welcome at their first class (09:24) How to create an inviting and welcoming culture in your gym (16:23) How to roll with the new person so they will want to come back (23:03) Seeing the opportunity to mentor and mold your ideal training partner   If you Love the Podcast, Share it with a Friend!

What do you do when you feel like your family, friends, or spouse are not supportive of you doing Jiu-Jitsu? From concerns about injuries to doubts about our abilities and choices, we've heard it all. Whether it's a partner who doesn't appreciate your commitment, parents who don't understand why you do Jiu-Jitsu, or friends who think it's a waste of time, we've got some ideas to handle these situations with grace and confidence. We also explore the deeper reasons that sometimes hide behind the lack of support, like jealousy, or the discomfort of seeing you grow and become more confident. Recognizing that these “concerns” may stem from someone else's insecurities or expectations is essential.  If you've ever felt discouraged or unsupported in your Jiu-Jitsu journey, this episode is for you. We share stories of overcoming these obstacles and finding the strength to pursue what we love. We are so happy that you are doing Jiu-Jitsu!

We have BIG opinions on cross-training and whether or not it's a good idea to attend Jiu Jitsu open mats.  Picture It: You love going to open mats, but your coach seems to have some reservations. This is the situation that one of our listeners found herself in.  Now, that got the gears turning in our jiu-jitsu-obsessed minds. We dive deep into the topic of cross-training and open mats and explain why some coaches discourage cross-training. We discuss the red flags, the toxic mentality behind this, and why it's important to embrace the opportunity to learn and train with different people. And guess what? We not only encourage cross-training at other gyms but also in your own gym! AJ drops some serious wisdom on why mixing it up with different training partners can level up your game and keep things fresh. We explore the topic of competing against someone you've rolled with at an open mat. Is it a disadvantage or just another exciting challenge? Our brains are churning with thoughts and insights on this one. We're also sprinkling in some cool stories about AJ's experiences training at gyms while traveling and the incredible connections and friendships she's made along the way.  Hit that play button, and let's roll!   What You Need to Know (02:06) Red flags for a toxic Jiu-Jitsu environment (04:02) What are the benefits of Jiu-Jitsu cross-training (08:21) Why it doesn't really matter if someone knows your game (10:31) How cross-training and open mats build the women's Jiu-Jitsu community   If you Love the Podcast, Share it with a Friend!

What does being coachable mean to you, and how does that impact your Jiu-Jitsu success? We are talking about being coachable from everyday training to how to focus on what your coach is telling you when you're out there competing. Remember in The Empire Strikes Back when Yoda was trying to drop some wisdom on Luke Skywalker, but he just wasn't having it? Well, let's just say we have some thoughts on Luke's unwillingness to be coached! But this episode is not all lightsabers and cute droids. We get down to business and share our insight and experience on what it means to be coachable in the world of jiu-jitsu. From listening to your coach's advice and opinion to implementing their guidance on the mats and even in tournaments, being coachable truly fuels your growth on and off the mat.

What does a Jiu Jitsu coach owe their student? Rolls? Coaching at tournaments? Promotions? Unlimited Access? What is the obligation and where does it end? We are navigating the intricacies of what coaches owe their students in the world of Jiu Jitsu, or at least sharing our thoughts. You will get the student and the coach perspective during this episode. How does a coach balance being present for their own personal commitments and competitions, while also wanting to coach and support their students?  Do coaches owe their students coaching for every tournament? We touch on the fear of missing out (FOMO) that coaches may experience and the desire to be there for their students in their competitions.  AJ shares a recent example of having to choose between coaching at multiple tournaments in the month of June and how she prioritized where she would be coaching.  And then she had a surprise surgery thrown into her schedule. What's a coach to do? Is your coach obligated to roll with you? We definitely has some strong thoughts on this question!    If you Love the Podcast, Share it with a Friend!

Brace yourself! We are exploring the complex dynamics of the Jiu-Jitsu Coach - Student relationship. What do you owe your coach? Do you owe them anything more than just showing up when you're paying to be there? Have you ever felt like your coach was too controlling? We are big fans of loyalty - but do you owe your Jiu Jitsu coach your undying loyalty? Where does it cross a line for you? Have you ever been told that you can't cross train at another gym? Are you not allowed to attend seminars outside of your school? Do you feel pressured to compete because you owe it to your coach? We have some strong feelings on this topic. You're going to hear all about them from both the coach and student experience.  So much of this boils down to the gym culture and leadership of the coach. And in our next episode, we're diving into the topic of “What does the Jiu Jitsu coach owe the student?” Make sure you're subscribed to the podcast so you don't miss it. What are your thoughts? We want to hear from you. Remember, your dedication to your own growth and the support you offer to your teammates are what truly matters.

How to say no to requests for your time. Today's question comes from my client and mentee Kiley. Kiley's an entrepreneur and she runs a sales consulting business. She gets slammed with requests for her time to “meet up for coffee”, “catch up with each other” or “I just wanna chat and pick your brain”. These requests can from anyone, peers, colleagues, friends, co-workers, the random LinkedIn connection, someone she met at a networking event, etc.  The problems come, when she turns up at these meetings and she finds out that a.) the other person just wants to chat in the middle of a workday (ugh) b.) the other person wants free advice (double ugh) or c.) the other person could've asked for what they needed from her directly and both people could've saved time and energy. Kiley doesn't want to be rude and she's also has limited time and energy. Can you relate? I love this question because it's super applicable and relatable to professionals, not just entrepreneurs. There's a good chance that you've been on the receiving end of random requests to connect. And it's hard. You're a good person who genuinely wants to help and you don't want to make someone else feel bad by saying no. I get it; I've been there and it's still hard for me too. Before we can talk about how to say no, we've got to understand why saying no is so hard sometimes.   Sign up for my weekly newsletter here.  Connect with me on  LinkedIn Alex Perry  Instagram @pswithalex Schedule a time to talk with me here.

Repetition gets a bad rap, because, in many instances, we don't want to insult someone because it can come off as sounding condescending. And or we don't want to repeat ourselves for fear that we will be boring or annoying.  These are completely valid feelings. We've suffered at the hands of boring, condescending, and annoying people.   However, it doesn't have to be that way. Understanding why, when and how to use repetition will help both you and your audience move the learning process along faster.  Let's start with when we use repetition. We use repetition when we want others to remember what we say. We want to use repetition frequently when we're leading and teaching, especially in the early stages, when we're trying to help someone master new concepts or skills.  Why is repetition so effective? Because it helps reinforce new info, making it more memorable. Remembering, storing information in short term memory, is key to learning. If we can't remember it, we didn't learn it. So, if you want people to remember what you said, you're going to have to get comfy with repetition. Here's how it works in our brains…when we repeat, we are reinforcing the neural pathways in our brains responsible for that information.  Over time, these neural pathways become stronger and more efficient, just like if you walked a new path repeatedly, making it easier for use to recall. Ok now that we know why repetition is so important, let's talk about how we can repeat without sounding boring, annoying, or condescending.  1.) Use synonyms.  Synonyms are words that mean the same (or close to the same thing).  For example, instead of saying “very good” you could say “excellent or “outstanding”.  2.) Change your sentence structure.  This will add contrast and keep your listeners listening. For example, “changing your sentence structure adds contrast while you're repeating information” and “In order to sound less repetitive, change your sentence structure!” 3.) Use transition phrases. These are phrases that connect one thought to the next. For example… “in addition to”, “on the other hand”, “however” 4.) Use anecdotes, analogies, and metaphors. Anecdotes are short stories that relate to your topic, real examples that enhance meaning. Analogies compare to similar things… “toxic workplace is like a dysfunctional family.”, Metaphors are a type of analogy that make a comparison where there may not be one at it's up to the listener to formulate one “e.g. boil the ocean” or “time is money.”  So, there you have it. We use repetition when we want others to remember what we say and when we're teaching new concepts or skills. Why is it so effective? Because it helps us remember. How do we avoid sounding boring, annoying, or condescending? By using synonyms, changing our sentences, using transition phrases and anecdotes, analogies, and metaphors.  This episode was edited and produced by Jenn Edds, the head broad in charge at the Brassy Broadcasting Company.  Sign up for my weekly newsletter here.  Connect with me on  LinkedIn Alex Perry  Instagram @pswithalex Schedule a time to talk with me here.
