What good is reach if you don't have resonance? In this transformative episode of Business of Story, host Park Howell sits down with Jay Acunzo to explore why clarity isn't enough for brand stories and how to transform expertise into influential public voice through premise development. --- ABOUT JAY ACUNZO --- Jay Acunzo is an author, speaker, and public speaking coach who helps experts become stronger public voices. He's written books about creativity and storytelling, and he's traveled the world giving keynotes to marketers and managers, dentists and designers, leaders and landscapers. His clients include bestselling authors, mainstage TED speakers, startup founders, and seven-figure coaches and consultants. Brands like Salesforce, GoDaddy, Zillow, and Mailchimp have trusted Jay to support some of their most visible projects. He began his career in sales and marketing at Google and HubSpot, and his own journey as a speaker has been featured in 3 different books. Jay's philosophy challenges conventional marketing wisdom: don't market more, matter more. Think resonance over reach. Don't be the best, be their favorite. --- WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER --- ✓ What a premise really is (and why it's different from a tagline, mission, or niche) ✓ The resonance over reach philosophy and why it creates more business impact ✓ How resonance works (using physics to understand the urge to act) ✓ The narrative argument framework: six beats that move audiences from skepticism to action ✓ Laddered messaging structure: We Want → We Need → We Hope ✓ Story 2.0: Why process alone isn't enough (you need practice and posture too) ✓ The critical difference between clarity and strength in brand storytelling ✓ How to develop your premise through iteration (not instant perfection) ✓ Why focus is something you pick, but clarity is something you build ✓ Real examples: How Jay helped Anne Handley refine her premise for ASAP: As Slow As Possible ✓ Premise examples from James Clear, Simon Sinek, Michelle Warner, and more ✓ How to apply premise thinking to products and services (StoryCycle Genie case study) --- KEY FRAMEWORKS REVEALED --- NARRATIVE ARGUMENT (6 Beats): What are their goals? What's their current approach? What are the problems with that approach? What root cause do you see? What change do they need? How do they implement it? LADDERED MESSAGING (3 Phrases): • We Want: Meet people where they're at • We Need: Your premise/philosophical change • We Hope: The grand transformation STORY 2.0 (3 P's): • Process: Story structure and frameworks • Practice: Regular creation and refinement • Posture: Seeing yourself as a storyteller --- MEMORABLE QUOTES --- The goal is not to market more, it's to matter more. What good is awareness if you don't have affinity? What good is reach if you don't have resonance? Don't be the best, be their favorite. Clarity doesn't mean strength. Clarity doesn't mean efficacy. Focus is something you pick. Clarity is something you build. --- ABOUT BUSINESS OF STORY --- The Business of Story podcast helps business owners and marketers master the art of storytelling to grow their brands and create meaningful impact. Hosted by Park Howell, creator of the StoryCycle System and ABT Framework, each episode features expert guests sharing proven strategies for business growth through authentic narrative.

What if your lack of progress has nothing to do with effort and everything to do with focus?In this episode, Kevin and Alan challenge how most people think about productivity, progress, and focus. They break down why tactics alone rarely move the needle and why clarity, self-awareness, and pattern recognition matter more than effort. This conversation is for anyone who feels busy but stagnant, disciplined but misdirected, or consistent without seeing proportional results. It reframes how to identify what actually drives outcomes in business, health, and relationships, and why fewer, better decisions compound faster over time.If you are ready to stop confusing motion with progress and start aligning your time with what truly works, listen closely. The leverage is not hidden. It is waiting for you to choose it.Learn more about:If you want to start, grow, scale, or monetize your podcast?

What if the story your brand tells could drive growth like nothing else? Park Howell—The World's Most Industrious Storyteller, Emmy-winning ad veteran, and author of Brand Bewitchery—shows how narrative-first leaders succeed in the age of AI. As host of the Business of Story podcast and creator of the StoryCycle Genie™, he's helping brands craft powerful stories in minutes, not months. What You'll Learn Why storytelling itself hasn't changed—but storytellers have How AI can scale authentic brand storytelling without losing your voice What it means to treat stories as strategic business assets How leaders can use narrative frameworks to drive clarity, trust, and growth Why speed now matters more than perfection in brand strategy (00:00) Intro (01:28) Story as the oldest technology (03:53) The StoryCycle system and brand growth (05:44) From months to minutes with AI-powered narrative strategy (10:35) Accuracy and authenticity in AI storytelling (13:25) How storytellers are changing—even if stories aren't (17:11) Building a personal and brand story library (24:48) Brands that made Park smile (and grimace) Park Howell is known as The World's Most Industrious Storyteller. An Emmy Award–winning, 40+ year advertising veteran, Park has helped purpose-driven brands grow by as much as 600 percent by putting story at the center of business strategy. He is the author of Brand Bewitchery, co-author of The Narrative Gym for Business, and host of the Business of Story podcast. Park is also the creator of the StoryCycle Genie, an AI-powered tool that helps leaders craft a powerful brand narrative in minutes, not months. He works internationally with executives who want to lead—and grow—through story. Park shared a great experience with Navy Federal Credit Union, praising their clear sense of purpose and people-first culture, summed up in their tagline: “Our members are the mission.” In contrast, a less-than-inspiring flight with United Airlines—complete with a dangling exit sign and spotty Wi-Fi—served as a reminder that brand storytelling always shows up in the experience, whether you like it or not.

Don and Steve are back with another round of Business & Bullsh*t, where real entrepreneurs break down wins, screwups, and what actually moves the needle, without the corporate fluff.It starts with a simple question. What is the most you would ever pay for a cup of coffee?That question gets real when a café in Dubai offers a $980 cup made from rare Nido 7 Geisha beans, with only 400 cups available worldwide. Absurd, or brilliant?From there, the conversation opens up into a deeper look at business reinvention, brand fatigue, and the real cost of change. Don and Steve unpack Panera's return to its “apex,” focusing on value, menu refreshes, and the decision to prioritize food over flashy tech. That leads into a broader discussion about innovation versus human connection, and what brands risk losing when they chase trends instead of trust. Don also shares firsthand challenges from the ongoing Clean Eatz rebrand.The episode wraps with sharp takes on skyrocketing Super Bowl ad costs, shifting brand loyalty among Gen Z, pop culture detours, bourbon mashups, and a fast-paced round of the Founderz Fast Five.Timestamps:[00:00] Trailer[01:03] Founderz Round Up: Panera[05:40] Super Bowl Commercials[08:17] Pop Culture: Nicki Minaj[10:05] Jeffrey Epstein[11:29] Social Media Update[11:56] Lululemon Stock[15:06] Strange News[17:07] Weekly Mashup[20:41] Hot Takes: Modern Heritage[26:18] Founderz Fast FiveKey Takeaways:  • Gen Z is cutting spending by 13% this year. Four out of five wait for sales.

This season we are exploring all the different ways the David Eccles School of Business has impacted our alums, and today we are exploring the benefit of generational engagement with the Eccles School and the U, for businesses, communities, and families. We're back for more stories about the impact the David Eccles School of Business has on their lives and careers, and for this episode, host Frances Johnson is joined by Jeff Young, Executive Vice President at YESCO. In this episode, host Frances Johnson is joined by Jeff Young, Executive Vice President at YESCO, a custom electric sign company. Frances talks to Jeff about his multi-generational family business, its origins, and its evolution, including key projects like the 2002 Winter Olympics and the massive screen installation at the Las Vegas Sphere. Jeff discusses the deep-rooted connection between his family and the University of Utah, including a 100 year legacy of family alumni. He also emphasizes the impact of the David Eccles School of Business on their success. Jeff highlights the importance of continuous learning, leveraging networks, and investing in education for the company's growth. This episode underscores the reciprocal relationship between YESCO and the Eccles School, illustrating how education and community engagement drive long-term business success.Eccles Business Buzz is a production of the David Eccles School of Business and is produced by University.fm.Eccles Business Buzz is proud to be selected by FeedSpot as one of the Top 70 Business School podcasts on the web. Learn more at https://podcast.feedspot.com/us_business_school_podcasts. Episode Quotes:Why investing in the U is a growth strategy for business owners [25:34] If you go to the Small Business Administration statistics, we know that businesses just don't… You have a higher chance of failing than not. And with the headwind we have in our economy, in our world, you've got to pursue every possible avenue to create a successful trajectory. And that means hitting all channels. If you are not investing in yourselves and in your organizations and your people, you're going to fail, probably. And the university… I can't think of a more beautiful, well-situated campus, meaning the business school campus, a set of buildings, and a group of more capable people to help host events, and a more capable group of people who can help bring material and content to the training than the University of Utah. I mean, I'm practically looking at it out my window. I'm facing north. Having grown up in, basically, in the University of Utah neighborhood, I have a real deep feeling of love and appreciation for everything that you do and the value you bring. And so, we, as an organization, you just wonder where we'd be without the benefit of having this university so close and all the insights, thoughts, skills, aptitudes that have come because of that.How Jeff's ties to the U and the Eccles School help sustain a multi-generation family business[10:02] Frances Johnson: I'd love to hear from you how your connection to the U and to the Eccles School has helped sustain your family business into so many generations.[10:13] Jeff Young: That's really a great question. Without the knowledge of how family businesses operate within the state, we've been able to meet dozens and dozens of other family businesses that strangely are also centennial-long businesses, and it's amazing to know that our grandfathers knew each other. Our grandmothers knew each other. Our fathers and mothers knew each other. And in current generations, a lot of them have gone through the University of Utah. And so, it's great to have the familiarity and that point of reference. And so, the business building in particular, we know where to go. We know who the people are, and it just feels like home to us. And we look around the room and see everyone else in that conference, and we say, "Yeah, we started here. We're still here. And we continue to decide to be here for all the right reasons." So, that continuing education and connection is vital. On how Eccles School equipped Jeff for success[4:00] The challenges we're facing today are much different than they were when we went to school. But the aptitude to want to learn, to apply, and to continue to learn and apply remains true. As recently as this morning, I had my face in a book. I've just purchased it. I've got 90 people coming to a training next Tuesday. This training has to be fresh and to the point, and pertinent to what they're facing. It's a sales group, right? And you say, "Okay, here's some additional tools that you can apply in your life to make your lives better." And the idea that we're not fearful of learning more is we've got to continue the learning and the application of that learning. Every day, every week, every month. That spirit of that is as alive today as it was when I was walking in and out, it's a new building, walking in and out those buildings that are long since gone. It's as fresh today as it ever will be. There's no way that I could do any of that today as well as I am if it hadn't been for the education I received at the University of Utah. There's just no way.Show Links:Jeff Young | LinkedInJeff Young | Family Business Magazine ProfileYESCO.comDavid Eccles School of Business (@ubusiness) | InstagramUndergraduate Scholars ProgramsRising Business LeadersEccles Alumni Network (@ecclesalumni) | Instagram Eccles Experience Magazine

You just signed another client, but instead of feeling excited, your stomach drops. Because you know exactly what happened, they want you for work you've been trying to move away from for the past year. You say yes anyway (because bills), then spend the next three months resenting every time their name pops up in your inbox. Sound familiar?This isn't a marketing problem or a messaging issue. It's an identity split, and it's the thing keeping you at the same income level month after month. You're saying one thing but selling another, and your business follows what you're selling, not what you're talking about. In this episode, I'm breaking down why you keep attracting clients for work you've outgrown, what this identity misalignment is actually costing you (financially and emotionally), and the exact steps to finally commit to the version of yourself you're trying to become.Key Points Covered:✨ Why your nervous system keeps you straddling two identities, and why the old one always wins✨ The audit questions to spot where your split identity is most obvious (Instagram vs website, bio vs offers)✨ What happens when you finally commit to one identity and align your whole business around it

In today's episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros challenge the way most people think about effort, focus, and progress. The idea of “less is more” is familiar, but rarely understood correctly. This conversation reframes the Pareto Principle as a decision-making standard, not a productivity trick. It confronts why most people stay busy yet stagnant, why real progress feels slower than expected, and why long-term results demand a different mindset entirely. This episode is about leverage, patience, and choosing what actually matters when the payoff is far away. Listen closely. Then cut the noise and commit to the work that compounds when no one is watching.Learn more about:Where learning turns into action. “Next Level Book Club”  every Saturday:https://zoom.us/meeting/register/tJMkcuiupjIqE9QlkptiKDQykRtKyFB5Jbhc_______________________NLU is not just a podcast; it's a gateway to a wealth of resources designed to help you achieve your goals and dreams.

Welcome to Rhee Gold’s Dance Life Podcast, hosted by Stacey Morgan and joined by the fabulous (and very “rugged up”) Rhee Gold—broadcasting from a freezing North Carolina cold snap that has him bundled up and learning new Aussie vocabulary fast. In this practical and timely episode, Stacey and Rhee dive into one of the biggest make-or-break skills for dance studio owners: clear communication. They unpack why miscommunication happens so easily—especially when you’re busy, juggling timetables, rehearsals, one-on-ones, and parent expectations—and how “dance language” can accidentally leave families confused. Stacey shares a real studio example of a small timetable change that created big frustration, and how she handled it: owning the mistake, apologising, and then following up about respectful behaviour and boundaries. Rhee opens up about a recent moment where his intention didn’t land the way he meant it to—and why sometimes the best path forward is a sincere apology rather than defending or over-explaining. Together, they explore the reality of 2025 customer expectations: parents are busy, life is full, and confusion creates cranky customers—even when you’ve communicated multiple times. You’ll also hear: Why an apology isn’t always “enough” when a parent has a backlog of unresolved grievances How creating structured feedback pathways can prevent blow-ups later Why studio communication must be multi-channel (email, socials, newsletters, in-hand notes, reminders… all of it) When using ChatGPT can help remove emotion from tough emails—while still keeping your voice How the post-pandemic world has gotten even busier, and why that impacts both studio owners and families A reminder that personal growth is part of entrepreneurship—and learning communication is part of the journey This episode is your encouragement (and your challenge) to build communication systems that are robust, consistent, and two-way—so you can reduce misunderstandings, protect your team, and keep your studio culture strong. Because when communication improves, stress reduces… and everyone gets to enjoy the journey.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

New year, new purpose. In this episode of I Am Refocused Radio, host Shemaiah Reed interviews Julie Calabro Bellingham, founder of Deux Mains—a humanitarian entrepreneur who turned the 2010 Haiti earthquake response into a global, Fairtrade-verified luxury brand. Julie shares the moment that changed everything—“I don't want money, I need a job”—and how it sparked a 16-year mission built on dignity through work, not charity.They unpack how Deux Mains became the only woman-owned, solar-powered leather goods factory in Haiti, what it takes to build sustainable manufacturing, why listening is a leadership superpower, and how partnerships with Nordstrom and more are expanding the brand's impact. Julie also previews big 2026 goals—including a potential flagship store—and the deeper vision: economic freedom and opportunity for Haiti.https://deuxmains.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.Subscribe now at YouTube.com/@RefocusedNetworkThank you for your time.

C'est là qu'il découvre une idée qui deviendra Notion.Mais l'histoire de Notion n'est pas celle d'une révolution. C'est celle d'un retour à cette idée : l'informatique devrait être aussi universelle que la lecture et l'écriture.Alors que la plupart des startups courent après les fonctionnalités, Ivan a passé 5 ans à la poursuivre. Ce chemin a failli tuer l'entreprise. Ivan a reconstruit Notion de zéro trois fois.Mais la vraie révolution se passe en interne.Notion consacre désormais l'essentiel de son temps à construire une infrastructure qui fonctionne avec tous les modèles d'IA pour libérer leur pleine puissance.Dans cet épisode, Ivan révèle :L'erreur qui a inspiré toute la philosophie de NotionLa stratégie du « brocoli sucré » : comment cacher la puissance de l'informatique dans des outils familiersPourquoi l'interface de Notion a mis 5 ans à devenir « simple »Pourquoi Notion ne construit aucun modèle d'IA mais les utilise tousComment 300 développeurs chez Notion font le travail de 3 000Le parcours d'Ivan prouve que les meilleurs produits viennent de la compréhension de l'histoire, pas de la course aux tendances.Une masterclass pour apprendre à construire des produits avec une approche philosophique.Vous pouvez contacter Ivan sur X.TIMELINE:00:00:00 : Le logiciel qui remplace tous les autres00:09:53 : Le choc culturel, entre “travailler pour vivretravailler” et “vivre pour travailler”00:27:39 : Comment l'art a façonné le design de Notion00:40:12 : L'informatique devrait être aussi universelle que la lecture et l'écriture00:52:49 : Les fondateurs oubliés de l'informatique01:01:08 : Le secret des grands produits : tout reconstruire de zéro01:09:36 : Le cerveau central de votre entreprise01:21:16 : Peut-on faire tourner une entreprise entière sur Notion ?01:30:36 : Le dilemme de l'IA : quel modèle choisir ?01:39:53 : Comment les agents IA révolutionnent le développement informatique ?01:48:18 : Créer ses propres outils avec NotionLes anciens épisodes de GDIY mentionnés : #487 - VF - Anton Osika - Lovable - Internet, Business et IA : rien ne sera jamais plus comme avant#487 - VO - Anton Osika - Lovable - Internet, Business, and AI: Nothing Will Ever Be the Same AgainNous avons parlé de :Les photos d'IvanLa théorie du système complexeLes recommandations de lecture :What Is a Complex System?, James LadymanVous souhaitez sponsoriser Génération Do It Yourself ou nous proposer un partenariat ?Contactez mon label Orso Media via ce formulaire.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Retrouvez l'épisode en version française ici : https://www.gdiy.fr/podcast/ivan-zhao-vf/"We try to be not innovative."That's how Ivan Zhao built one of the most innovative products of this decade.Notion isn't a spreadsheet.It's not project management.It's not a CRM.Ivan calls it "the LEGO for software".Born in rural Xinjiang, China, where electricity arrived when he was 8 Ivan now runs a $10 billion company used by more than 100 million people.At 17, Ivan left China for Vancouver.At university, three worlds collided: art, philosophy, and computing. That last one led him down a rabbit hole, he dove into the history of the web, then the history of computing itself. There, he discovered a forgotten vision that would become Notion.But Notion's origin story isn't about disruption. It's about bringing back that vision: computing should be as universal as reading and writing.While most startups chase feature lists, Ivan spent 5 years chasing that bigger idea. This path nearly killed the company. Ivan rebuilt Notion from scratch three times.Today, Notion consolidates several tools for companies like Qonto, L'Oréal, and Toyota, saving them time and money.But the real revolution is happening under the hood.Notion now spends most of its time building infrastructure that works with every AI model to unlock their full power for all customers.In this episode, Ivan reveals:The mistake that inspired Notion's entire philosophyThe "sugar-coated broccoli" strategy: how to hide computing power inside familiar toolsWhy Notion's UI took 5 years to become "simple"Why Notion doesn't build AI models but uses them allHow 300 Notion programmers do the work of 3,000Ivan's path proves that the best products come from understanding history, not just chasing trends.A masterclass in building products with philosophical depth.You can contact Ivan on X.TIMELINE:00:00:00 : The LEGO software that replaces them all00:09:53 : The culture shock: from "work to work" to "live to work"00:27:39 : How art shaped Notion's design00:40:12 : Computing should be as universal as reading and writing00:52:49 : The forgotten pioneers of computing01:01:08 : Great products' secret is rebuilding from scratch01:09:36 : The central brain for your entire company01:21:16 : Is it possible to run an entire company with Notion?01:30:36 : The AI dilemma, which model to choose?01:39:53 : AI agents are revolutionizing software development01:48:18 : Everyone can build their own tools with NotionWe referred to previous GDIY episodes : #487 - VF - Anton Osika - Lovable - Internet, Business et IA : rien ne sera jamais plus comme avant#487 - VO - Anton Osika - Lovable - Internet, Business, and AI: Nothing Will Ever Be the Same AgainA few recent episodes in English : #513 - VO - Jesper Brodin - IKEA - 40 billion in revenue empire with no bank loan#500 - Reid Hoffman - LinkedIn, Paypal - How to master humanity's most powerful invention#487 - VO - Anton Osika - Lovable - Internet, Business, and AI: Nothing Will Ever Be the Same Again#475 - VO - Shane Parrish - Farnam Street - Clear Thinking: The Decision-Making Expert#473 - VO - Brian Chesky - Airbnb - « We're just getting started »#452 - VO - Reid Hoffman - LinkedIn, Paypal - L'humanité 2.0 : Homo technicus plus qu'Homo sapiens#437 - James Dyson - Dyson - “Failure is more exciting than success”#431 - Sean Rad - Tinder - How the swipe fever took over the worldWe spoke about :Ivan's photosComplex System TheoryReading Recommendations :What Is a Complex System?, James LadymanInterested in sponsoring Generation Do It Yourself or proposing a partnership ?

Pour les fêtes de fin d'année, nous vous proposons de (re)découvrir quelques épisodes marquants de ces derniers mois. Nous vous donnons rendez-vous à la rentrée pour des nouveaux épisodes inédits !Nous sommes aujourd'hui avec Moïse Sfez, figure montante de la street food. À seulement 30 ans, il enchaîne les succès avec Homer Lobster, Janet et Maurice Café, où il bouscule avec audace les codes de la restauration rapide pour réconcilier la gastronomie avec la rue. Pour co-animer cet épisode de Business of Bouffe, Philibert est accompagné d'Élisa Gautier, la fondatrice du restaurant Kiosk à Paris.À travers ce podcast, nous cherchons à comprendre les clés de la réussite fulgurante de Moïse Sfez. En quelques années seulement, il a transformé un (simple) sandwich au homard en une véritable success story et dirige aujourd'hui un petit empire de la street food.Pour cela, nous retraçons le parcours de Moïse. On s'intéresse à sa vocation hyper précoce pour l'entrepreneuriat et la restauration. Inspiré dès l'enfance par les sandwichs généreux et gourmands de ses parents, il développe très tôt l'envie de créer un jour son propre Business dans la Bouffe. Puis, lors d'un voyage à New York, il a la révélation à seulement 15 ans lorsqu'il goûte pour la première fois un Lobster Roll. Ensemble, on évoque son parcours peu académique en école hôtelière et ses expériences dans les plus beaux palaces et restaurants 3 étoiles. Son profil et son comportement dénotent, mais son audace et sa persévérance remarquables lui permettent de forger son projet. Il pose ainsi les bases de son premier succès : Homer Lobster.Nous explorons ensuite toutes les étapes de la création et du développement de Homer Lobster. Moïse nous raconte par exemple les mois passés à peaufiner sa recette avec l'appui des plus grands chefs et experts pour atteindre la perfection et maîtriser chaque étape de la production. Puis, on l'écoute avec beaucoup de plaisir se remémorer les coups d'audace qui lui ont permis, sans aucun moyen financier, de trouver rapidement son public et de faire de son sandwich au homard un produit iconique de la street food parisienne.Enfin, Moïse revient sur la création de ses 2 autres enseignes : Janet tout d'abord, puis plus récemment Maurice Café. Moïse se livre sans filtre : ses ambitions, mais aussi la structuration du Homer Food Group qu'il pilote aujourd'hui avec une vision affirmée. Il partage avec nous tous les chiffres et ses choix stratégiques, une plongée inspirante dans les coulisses d'un groupe de restauration en pleine expansion.Cet épisode a été enregistré avec la participation exceptionnelle de François-Régis Gaudry, Eric Frechon et Yann Couvreur.

From Coca-Cola to McDonalds ~ Artist. Entrepreneur. Author. Servant Leader CEO of "The Why Not Win Institute" :These are just a few words that describe Larry D. Thornton, Sr. You could also call him a game changer, teacher and team player.  Even though there are many words to describe Larry's prowess leadership, hearing his life story puts everything in perspective.Growing Up in the Segregated South to go to Game Changer was not without adversity BOTH socially & because of race perceptions, However, his Mom & Many Mentors taught him interpersonal relationship skills that helped him see a bigger picture  on solving obstacles so he & his team could become winners in Business & Life.Thornton's artistry and work ethic got him attention at Coca-Cola, both for the good and the bad. He had to figure out a way to navigate this new world, where higher-ups praised him but co-workers reminded him of his “blackness” by drawing a noose in his workstation.  He persevered by learning to appreciate and embrace diversity, people resources, and conflicting opinions. While his success grew at Coca-Cola, Thornton did the unthinkable: set out to be the first African American to own a McDonald's franchise in Birmingham. This thorny journey was peppered with threats, attempts to thwart his mission and a marriage he could not keep from falling apart. He absorbed the “try, try and try again” motto, and came to see that failure was a prelude to feasting upon the sweet fruit of success. Thornton made up his mind that he would spend each day on a mission to show his unbending gratitude for his life and its benefits by fostering a supreme attitude and maintaining consistency in vision, purpose, and an unwavering commitment to principles. Thornton's journey from Madison Park, Montgomery, has been a long one. “Why Not Win?” reflects on his most useful lessons and the anecdotes associated with them He teaches Success Principles of Leadership at his "The Why Not Win Institute" launched  with Dr. Zillah Fluker in November of 2018 and in the last several years has been delivered at more than 20 colleges, universities & corporations.

And he was like, BLEGHGH! IT'S ME! Or rather, it's us! We're back. This week, Emily and V take a look at the ways that Thor: Ragnarok divided the MCU fandom as a controversial entry into the Thor trilogy and, therefore, the MCU Infinity Saga as a whole. Emily was a long-time Thor fangirl when it came out; it was V's second or third MCU movie, ever. How did these different perspectives inform the ways that they enjoyed -- or didn't enjoy -- the movie?  Also, a bit of The Business up-front: we're back, and we're going to quickly burn off the remainder of the 2025 episodes before getting back on track with being "this week" in fandom history later this month.

The latest market updates and news from RNZ's business team.

I'm pulling back the curtain on my 2025 business insights... nosy bitches, this one's for you! I share the ultimate the plot twist: I made almost the exact same money as 2024, while taking a 3-month sabbatical, working essentially part-time, and living like an eccentric writer.I break down my Pitch Perfect launches (including a surprising feeling I had with my first $20K month), why I'm retiring from being "The Podcast Queen," and the creative possession that birthed SUPERNOVA — my new thinking lab for people who want to build intellectual frameworks that shape culture instead of learning more tactical skills. Plus: why I'm choosing restraint as my 2026 word, and why I'm actively exploring capped business models and circular economies instead of scaling into outer space.Themes from the episode:Making the same money while living exponentially better - I generated $143K (basically what I made in 2024), but took almost 3 months off, worked Tuesdays-Thursdays, and traveled to 10+ cities, which honestly feels more successful than any revenue goal ever could.From reactive hot takes to restrained discernment - I'm retiring the knee-jerk cultural commentary and choosing thoughtfulness over Threads wars, because not everything needs my opinion and frankly, discernment is sexy as hell.Why SUPERNOVA exists and why I refuse to be the podcast queen forever - The sabbatical revealed I don't want my legacy to be "she taught people to pitch/podcast," I want it to be "she taught people to build worlds," which required creating a 4-month thinking lab for intellectual frameworks that transcend your current business reputation.Ditching cold pitching for relational EVERYTHING - I stopped teaching extractive tactics and started focusing on nurturing your actual circle, which resulted in my most collaborative Pitch Perfect cohorts and proved that relationships always win over spray-and-pray strategies.Exploring capped income and circular economies because endless growth is a scam - I engaged in 8+ swaps/trades for high-ticket programs, I'm capping SUPERNOVA at 10 people, and I'm actively researching what it means to redistribute resources instead of building a team-run empire I don't even want.My 2026 themes: CREATE. PLAY. PHILOSOPHIZE. EXPLORE. UNEARTH. ASK BIG QUESTIONS. SIMMER. PONDER. WONDER. THINK.What are yours?!Connect with Chelsea:

Hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros challenge a belief that quietly limits progress. When results stall, the issue is rarely what most people point to. The real constraint often sits closer than expected and goes unnoticed for years. This episode creates a sharp shift in how responsibility, effort, and progress are understood. It redirects attention away from external noise and toward what actually drives long-term outcomes.If you are serious about building lasting results in your life, business, health, or relationships, this episode will change how you evaluate your own growth.
