When growth stalls, it's time to get personal.  Ever felt like you've done all the "right" things in your business, but your results don't add up? You're not alone. In this episode of Your Passion, Purpose, and Personal Brand, host Lisa McGuire sits down with business strategist Maeve Ferguson to challenge everything we've been told about marketing funnels, freebies, and formulas. They explore the quiet revolution happening behind the scenes that few people know about yet. It's one driven by data, dignity, and diagnostics. This is not another pep talk. This is a call to alignment. You'll learn why personalization is the new currency in business, how traditional funnels are quietly failing, and what it really takes to attract high-level clients without selling your soul (or your calendar) to outdated discovery calls. Maeve reveals how entrepreneurs are collapsing months of guesswork into clarity by transforming their intellectual property into score-based diagnostics that do more than convert. They connect. If you've ever whispered to yourself, "I know I'm meant for more...but I don't know where I lost the map," this conversation is your compass. KEY TAKEAWAYS Traditional funnels are outdated. Today's audiences crave personalization. Diagnostic assessments segment leads for higher precision and conversions. Mass emails and checklist freebies often repel rather than attract. Your audience's sophistication has evolved. It's time your strategy does too. Diagnostics let you identify who's truly ready and willing to buy. Rich niche positioning attracts elevated clients and filters out misaligned ones. Mapping your IP (yes, you have it) gives clarity, confidence, and authority. AI and mediocrity are flooding the market. Your differentiation is being real. When you stop chasing and start aligning, sales become symphonic. Success is not about "doing more." It's about becoming more of who you are.   CONNECT WITH MAEVE LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maeveferguson/ Instagram Profile: https://www.instagram.com/iammaeveferguson/ Website: www.maeveferguson.com  CHECK OUT MAEVE'S FREE RESOURCE: https://www.impactscoreassessment.com   CONNECT WITH LISA Beyond the Transaction Mastermind -  Apply to join the group: https://beyondthetransactionmm.com/register Sign up for Lisa's "so much more" newsletter: https://www.thediyframework.com/so-much-more-subscribe  Freedom Reset: Your Next Steps to Realignment  Register: https://go.lisamcguire.com/freedom-reset  Human Design Masterclass Waitlist: https://go.lisamcguire.com/human-design-masterclass-waitlist  Ideal Client Workshop Waitlist: https://go.lisamcguire.com/ideal-client-workshop-waitlist-icww785155  Get your free Human Design Bodygraph: https://lisamcguire.com/get-your-free-chart/

In this powerful, no-fluff conversation, Dr. Alisa dives into a truth most entrepreneurs try to avoid: your business will never outgrow your mindset.This episode unpacks why branding is not about logos, colors, or aesthetics—but about identity, alignment, and ownership. When leaders skip the inner work, the business eventually stalls. When identity is clear, influence compounds.You'll hear real talk about:Why consistency—not motivation—is the real differentiatorHow entrepreneurs sabotage growth by expecting success to be easyThe mindset shift required to stop outsourcing responsibility for resultsWhy brand evolution must start at the identity level, not the surface levelHow value creation, service, and profit must coexist for sustainable impactThis episode is for founders, leaders, and creators who are done chasing shortcuts and ready to build something that lasts—from the inside out.

In this Real Estate Rundown episode, Owen and Ted get into the practical side of AI—how tools like ChatGPT can help you spot your “zone of genius” (and your blind spots) so you can stop doing the work you secretly hate and start delegating like an adult. They share a solid prompt passed along from their buddy Colin Schwartz, compare “nice” AI vs “tell me the truth” AI, and talk about why unfiltered feedback can be a cheat code for business growth.They also drop a super practical landlord/flipper nugget: a cellular-based temp/humidity/power monitoring device you can use in vacant properties during winter so you don't find out you lost heat after your pipes explode.Finally, they preview an upcoming episode with local Omaha investor Jason Woodward (and his son) and tease a conversation around “alternative flipping”—ways to flip assets that aren't houses (boats, cars, furniture, etc.).If you got value from this one:Follow/subscribe to REIA Radio, share this episode with a friend, and comment what your zone of genius is (or the thing you're finally going to stop doing). You can Join the Omaha REIA - https://omahareia.com/join-todayOmaha REIA on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/groups/OmahaREIACheck out the National REIA - https://nationalreia.org/ Find Ted Kaasch at www.tedkaasch.com Owen Dashner on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/owen.dashner Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/odawg2424/ Red Ladder Property Solutions - www.sellmyhouseinomahafast.com Liquid Lending Solutions - www.liquidlendingsolutions.com Owen's Blogs - www.otowninvestor.com www.reiquicktips.com Propstream - https://trial.propstreampro.com/reianebraska/Timber Creek Virtual - https://timbercreekvirtual.com/services/MagicDoor - https://magicdoor.com/reia/...

Most brands think their messaging is clear. Their customers often disagree. In this episode of Frictionless Growth Marketing, Sonia Thompson sits down with Dr. J.J. Peterson — marketing and communication expert, former Head of StoryBrand, and co-host of the globally top-ranked Marketing Made Simple podcast — to unpack how messaging can either remove friction or quietly block business growth at every stage of the customer journey. Together, they explore why unclear messaging is one of the most overlooked sources of friction in marketing — and how it leads to lost trust, stalled conversion, and missed growth opportunities, especially with today's identity-rich, values-driven consumers. This episode will help you spot where your messaging may be slowing customers down — and how to realign it to drive business growth. You'll learn: How unclear messaging creates friction across the customer journey Why customers need to see themselves in your story to take action How storytelling increases clarity, trust, and conversion Where brands unintentionally push customers away with their language and positioning How to communicate with empathy and authority — without sounding generic or salesy Why clear, human messaging is essential for sustainable business growth Dr. Peterson also shares powerful real-world examples, lessons from working with global brands, and insights on how leaders can show up as guides — not heroes — in their customers' stories. If you want to improve customer experience, remove messaging friction, and drive business growth through clearer, more human communication, this episode will help you see exactly where to start.

“There is so much emotional energy moving, a lot of grief for people, and I think largely a lot of that is stemming from the fact that we are ending this nine year cycle... there is definitely a shift amidst us and I think we all can feel it.”We're standing at the edge of a massive energetic threshold. In this 2025 wrap-up, I'm not just recapping the year; I'm diving deep into the completion of a profound nine-year cycle that began in 2017. If you've been feeling a heavy mix of grief, transformation, and a relentless push toward authenticity, you're not alone... you're exactly where you need to be.In this episode, I'm sharing my unfiltered thoughts on why the idea of "going back to normal" after 2020 was always an illusion and how we're collectively moving into a clearer, more prominent shift in 2026. I open up about my own journey, from the intuitive hits I had as a child watching The Terminator to the career-shattering moments as a school counselor that forced me to choose my own truth over arbitrary rules. We explore why playing by the system's handbook often means betraying your own intuition, and why true trauma healing requires us to stop performing and start embodying who we actually are.This is a rant, a reflection, and a roadmap all in one. We discuss the trap of pop psychology, the unconscious family dynamics we replay in our workplaces, and why 2026 is shaping up to be the "Year of the Individual."
