Join us for an inspiring journey as we sit down with Amal Easton, the visionary founder of Easton Training Centers. Amal shares his remarkable path from growing up in a happiness-focused, non-traditional family to creating a thriving Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu empire across Colorado. Discover how his decision to forgo a typical university path led him to acupuncture school, and ultimately to Brazil, where he trained with the Gracie family and honed his skills amidst language barriers and financial challenges. His return to the U.S. marked the beginning of Easton Training Centers, now a network of eight schools that have transformed lives and communities. In this engaging episode, we explore the powerful intersection of passion and personal growth through the lens of Jiu-Jitsu. Amal recounts his experience of moving to Brazil, selling everything to embrace a new life, and the profound impact Jiu-Jitsu had on his journey. This martial art is not just a practice but a metaphor for life and entrepreneurship, teaching resilience, connection, and mental agility. Listen in as Amal discusses the creation of his first gym and the evolution into a supportive network that empowers others to establish their own training centers.

We're kicking off Season 12 with a powerful introduction to our new coachee, Molly! In this intro episode, you'll get to know who Molly is, both in her business and in her life, and why she said yes to this experience of coaching publicly. She shares what's been working in her business, the challenges she's navigating right now, and the goals she's holding as she steps into this container. Most importantly, you'll hear her excitement (and fears) about what's to come. I have a feeling you're going to fall in love with Molly and be inspired by her willingness to go deep from the very beginning.  In this episode, you'll hear: Molly's background and what drives her in business and life What life looks like right now as a business owner and mother Why she wanted to work together and what made her say yes to the podcast The challenges she's navigating that don't have a neat resolution yet The goals she's working toward as she steps into this season What she's most excited for — and most nervous about — in the journey ahead   Episode Links Join my Facebook group Connect with Molly on Instagram Learn more about Molly on her website If you're enjoying the coaching you're hearing, check out my Ultimate Mini Course to Maximizing Results in 1:1 Coaching to learn the proven strategies & foundational tools for creating an in-demand container that gets your clients real results  

I'm going to be honest, this is a unique session to start a season. And as you get to know the joy and vulnerability that Molly brings to everything, you'll see why it couldn't have been any other way! Molly and I pick up "mid conversation" (i.e. we had done an intensive together prior to starting) to celebrate and dissect a huge win and dive incredibly deep on an in-process sales page. This episode exemplifies how simple it can be to see results, and much strategy and detail still go into it. You'll walk away with energetic shifts to apply to your next launch, detailed shifts to make on your sales page, and an example of what it really means to go deep into the details as a coach and client.  In this episode, you'll hear: • How Molly sold out her offer before she even launched it • The way she actually got results from our intensive (that every coach and client needs to hear) • The thing that truly changes how your offer sells (that is so simple we often hate to acknowledge it) • The massive advantage of running your funnel live first • Why going deep on your sales page matters more than most people realize (and how to make it feel like a YES for your people) • The tiny copy details that build trust and authority in big ways • The “mom life meets business” moment that we need to normalize   Episode Links Join my Facebook group Connect with Molly on Instagram Learn more about Molly on her website If you're enjoying the coaching you're hearing check out my Ultimate Mini Course to Maximizing Results in 1:1 coaching to learn the proven strategies & foundational tools for creating an in-demand container that gets your clients real results

Today, we are joined by Keith Ferrazzi.Growing up in western Pennsylvania in the 1970s, Keith would hear his father talk about practices going on at the steel mill where he worked, his manager telling him to slow down because he was making the boss look bad as he was outworking his peers. His father eventually became unemployed. The steel industry crash was in full effect in Pittsburgh and across the Rust Belt. Meanwhile, Japanese factories were adopting practices to drive efficiencies and deliver higher-quality products. Watching his parents take any job available to make ends meet led to Keith's mission of helping teams collaborate effectively to achieve exceptional results.‍Following his graduation from Yale, Keith went to work for a manufacturing company that was utilizing practices such as Total Quality Management, created by academics to expect more from frontline teams. After graduating from Harvard Business School, Keith joined Deloitte, where he became the youngest person to be elected partner and the global CMO at lightning speed. This experience prompted him to write his first book, “Never Eat Alone,” a story of how to radically accelerate success through better relationship management. This was the beginning of his lifelong calling and research into what makes teams high-performing and successful. Keith committed to founding his own research institute and coaching firm to inquire into and explore the practices of teamship.

Shelby Hansen's BIO:  Shelby Hansen is a certified life coach, speaker, and chronic fatigue recovery expert. After going into kidney failure as a young mom of three—and giving birth to her fourth child while pregnant on the transplant list—Shelby believed her transplant would be the answer to everything. But even after surgery, the exhaustion, pain, and overwhelm continued. Her healing truly began when she discovered the connection between chronic fatigue and the nervous system. Through learning to regulate her stress response, shift lifelong patterns of people-pleasing, and rebuild trust with her body, Shelby experienced a full transformation—and knew she had to help other women do the same. Today, she helps women with chronic fatigue stop feeling like a burden and start living vibrant, purpose-filled lives. Her approach combines nervous system healing, mindset coaching, and compassionate support to help women regain energy, ease, and joy—without relying on endless supplements or impossible routines. Shelby is a kidney transplant recipient, Air Force wife of 20+ years, mom of four, and host of the Get Your Energy Back podcast. She believes healing gets to be gentle, empowering, and deeply personal—and that energy is just the beginning.   In this episode, Virginia and Shelby talked about: The importance of cultivating courage  The power of visualization in the face of (negative) facts  How Shelby started her business How to become your future you   Takeaways: Do it scared  If it's not working, think something different  The Universe will never tell you “no”.  Sometimes you just have to focus on the potential  Live in your results    Connect with Shelby on her LinkedIn account to learn more about her work and insights into networking effectively: LinkedIn URL : https://www.linkedin.com/in/shelby-hansen-41434425a/    Connect with Virginia: https://www.bbrpodcast.com/

Mindset Mastery: Transforming Thoughts into Business SuccessIn this episode of the Daily Mastermind, George Wright III discusses how many of the challenges faced by entrepreneurs stem from their own thoughts and perceptions rather than actual external problems. Drawing on insights from the book 'Don't Believe Everything You Think' by Joseph Nguyen, George emphasizes the nature of thoughts as mere interpretations of reality and not absolute truths. He explores the illusion of control created by overthinking and highlights the importance of action over excessive planning. Additionally, George distinguishes between real challenges and the self-imposed suffering that comes from negative thinking. 00:36 Weekend Recap: A Refreshing Trip to Las Vegas01:56 The Power of Thoughts in Entrepreneurship02:17 Book Highlight: Don't Believe Everything You Think04:03 Core Insight 1: The Nature of Thought05:55 Core Insight 2: The Illusion of Control08:01 Core Insight 3: Stress and Overthinking09:46 Conclusion and Next StepsYou have GREATNESS inside you.

And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Stu Gregor, the hardest thing in growing a small business is the repetition — getting up every single day and pushing forward with the same energy and focus, even when challenges make you want to crawl under the doona and give up. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Stu Gregor's favorite business book that has helped him the most is “The E-Myth Revisited” by Michael Gerber. He often recommends it to people starting a business because of its timeless lessons on building systems and processes for sustainable growth. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Stu Gregor shared that he doesn't follow specific business podcasts, but he listens to Fear and Greed, a short daily business news podcast by Sean Aylmer, to stay updated on current events. He also enjoys podcasts about politics, sports, and music, using them to learn about things outside his own expertise and broaden his perspective. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Stu Gregor recommends finding an incredible business partner as the most valuable resource for growing a small business. He believes no one has all the skills needed to succeed alone, and a great partner can balance weaknesses, share the workload, and drive the business forward. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Stu Gregor would tell himself on day one to embrace the incredible journey ahead and have fun, as building a business will be one of the most exciting experiences of his life. He also advises staying fit and healthy, as the demands of entrepreneurship require energy and resilience to handle the challenges along the way.
