Recruiting Evolution is the next chapter of The Full Desk Experience, bringing you the same candid conversations and practical insights with a new name and look built for where recruiting is headed.AI for staffing firms has moved from experimentation to everyday use, but many teams are still treating it as little more than a faster writing tool. The real opportunity comes from giving AI the right context, building it into repeatable processes, and using it to create sales and marketing that actually stands out.In this episode, originally recorded as part of the FDE+ event series, Kortney Harmon is joined by Brad Smith, Chief Strategy Officer at Haley Marketing. Brad explains why so many staffing firms are getting generic results from AI and shares practical frameworks, real-world case studies, and strategies firms can use to strengthen buyer engagement, build authority, and drive measurable growth._____Follow Brad Smith on LinkedIn: LinkedIn | BradLearn more about Haley MarketingFollow Crelate on LinkedIn: CrelateWant to learn more about Crelate?

A pandemic relief territory that grew 39% while every area around it went red. A fund that deployed capital fast and couldn't prove what it did. A 55-year-old nonprofit still running on paper.Urina Harrell, founder of Vox Pop Branding, walks through all three — what was broken, what she built, and what happened next.

Before TDE, Kate and Hallie had 300 Instagram followers, no framework, and no personal transformation story to pull from.   Just 5 months later they have: → over 10,000 followers on Instagram → 18,000 followers on Facebook → 2 Reels with a combined 3+ million views   And they're waking up to course sales from complete strangers!   I sat down with Kate Alcamo and Hallie Strauss—the powerhouse duo behind the Co-Parent Collective—for one of the most unique TDE case studies I've ever shared.    They're both licensed mental health professionals who have never been through a divorce themselves, which meant they had to figure out how to build an origin story and a business without a personal transformation to anchor it.   If you're a highly credentialed expert and you want to transfer that to your business, but you haven't experienced what your clients are experiencing—this is the episode you're gonna want to tune into.   → Apply for TDE: https://meganyelaney.com/tde   → Follow Kate + Hallie on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoparentcollective → Connect with Meg on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/meganyelaney/   → Get the full show notes (with all the links) here:  https://meganyelaney.com/2026/09/30/from-no-audience-to-growing-and-going-viral-on-instagram  

"Our year following TDE is our most successful financial year in business ever. Period." I got to sit down with Tasha + Brandon a full year after they went through The Distinctive Edge to talk about what actually STUCK, what changed in their business, and the very full-circle fact that they're now co-coaches inside TDE. In this episode we're breaking down how they went from having SO much expertise they struggled to explain what they actually did, to becoming fluent in their own messaging, building their most financially successful year in business, bringing in $50K+ from ONE sales strategy inside TDE, and booking out their private client roster until 2027. And honestly, some of my favorite parts have nothing to do with the money. We talk about taking the pressure off every single post, having more capacity for their clients + their actual lives, and what they're now seeing from the other side as TDE co-coaches. This one is for anyone who knows they're really freakin good at what they do but still feels like they're throwing a bunch of shit at the wall trying to figure out what actually creates consistent sales. → Apply for TDE: https://meganyelaney.com/tde → Say hi to Meg on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/meganyelaney/ → Say hi to Tasha + Brandon on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rulesandrebellion/ 

In this episode of Case Studies, Casey goes solo to unpack what he calls the opportunity muscle, the ability to spot potential that everyone else walks past. Drawing on lessons from his mentor Todd Pedersen and patterns across more than 150 guest conversations, Casey shares the five-part framework he uses to evaluate any opportunity: character, competency, track record, trajectory, and resourcefulness. He explains why he bets on trajectory over presentation every time, and why the best opportunities rarely arrive polished.Casey walks through real examples from his own investing career, including a behavioral health acquisition built on trust rather than a flashy pitch, and an early bet on David Neeleman's Breeze Airways during COVID, when nearly every industry headwind hit at once. He also makes a case for concentration over scattered effort: saying no to good options clears the runway for great ones.Casey closes with four practical questions listeners can answer today to name their single biggest opportunity, find the person who can accelerate it, and take a first step within 24 hours. Entrepreneurs and investors chasing their next big opportunity will leave with a sharper filter for where to spend their time, money, and energy.The information in this communication is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, a recommendation, or a solicitation to invest in any fund or security.

Apply to Become a 1-on-1 Patient DianeKazer.com/PATIENT All Yeptide Resources DianeKazer.com/YEPTIDES Join Our Elite VIP Tribe DianeKazer.com/VIP This is Part 3 of our deep dive into what's REALLY happening with your hormones, and today, we're connecting ALL the dots. In Part 1, we exposed the world of xenoestrogens and environmental toxins and explored how endocrine-disrupting exposures may interfere with hormone signaling and potentially contribute to problems far beyond estrogen alone - from reproductive development and fertility to metabolic and hormone-related health concerns. Then we went deeper into low testosterone, changing hormones and what happens downstream when these systems get disrupted. But there's a much bigger question: How do you know what's actually happening inside YOUR body? Because I'm sick of this idea that we go to our doctor once a year, get a basic blood panel, hear "everything looks normal," and check the HEALTHY ✅ box for another 12 months. Or something is abnormal, we get a prescription to change the number...and somehow that's called "fixing the problem". Or a scan - an MRI, CT, mammogram or ultrasound—finds something unusual and we're told, "Let's just keep an eye on it." But what if that finding is your body waving a flag that something deeper is happening beneath the surface, below the tip of the iceberg? Your MD absolutely has a place on your healthcare team. But I believe you deserve another layer: an annual root-causation health investigation that doesn't stop at "Are you sick enough yet to diagnose?" I want to know: WHY is that marker changing? What is driving it? What are your hormones actually doing? What's happening in your gut? What are you being exposed to? And most importantly - are the things we're doing actually moving your health in the right direction? And that's exactly what we're showing you in Part 3.

In dieser Folge des Onlineshop Geflüster Podcasts geht es um einen Satz, den ich ständig von Shopbetreibern höre und nicht mehr hören kann: „Ich habe ein Marketing-Problem." Die Symptome kennst du wahrscheinlich. Der Spend lässt sich nicht skalieren, die Kosten pro Neukunde sind zu hoch, der Umsatz stagniert seit Monaten auf einer Linie. Das Problem liegt aber fast nie am Marketing selbst, sondern dahinter. Die meisten Shops sind im Blindflug, haben ihre Zahlen nicht im Griff und kein klares Ziel, was ein Neukunde kosten darf. Ohne dieses Ziel traut sich niemand, den Spend hochzudrehen, und man wartet auf vermeintlich gute Werte, die eigentlich viel zu hoch angesetzt sind. Ich hatte schon Shops im Onboarding, die überzeugt waren, sie könnten nicht aufdrehen. In den Zahlen habe ich dann gesehen, dass sie die ganze Zeit hätten aufdrehen können. Wir haben im Onboarding den Spend hochgezogen und die Umsätze innerhalb weniger Wochen vervielfacht, ohne sonst irgendetwas zu verändern. Du erfährst, warum das gefühlte Marketing-Problem in den meisten Fällen ein Zahlen-Problem ist, welche Kennzahlen du im Griff haben musst bevor du skalierst, von Neukunden-Kosten über den nötigen ROAS bis zu Wiederkaufsrate und Discountquote, und warum blindes Aufdrehen ohne diese Klarheit genauso teuer werden kann wie das Stagnieren.

How can private capital turn sustainability challenges into investment opportunities in emerging markets?Monique Mathys-Graaff, Interim Chief Markets Officer at the PRI, is joined by Lisa Genasci, Managing Director, Sustainable Finance, at ADM Capital, and Vishal Bhavsar, Senior VP & Head ESG at Multiples Alternate Asset Management. Lisa and Vishal are practitioners behind two initiatives shortlisted for the PRI Awards: ADM Capital's  'Project Banyan', shortlisted for Recognition for action: nature, and Multiples Alternate Asset Management's 'The Suraksha Operating Model', shortlisted for Recognition for action: human rights. Drawing on their work in private credit and private equity, they discuss how environmental and social considerations can move beyond frameworks to become part of everyday investment decision-making.From financing the often-overlooked SMEs at the heart of Asian agricultural supply chains to embedding human rights and worker safety into portfolio companies, Lisa and Vishal share practical examples of identifying material risks others may miss. They explore how due diligence, investment agreements, loan documents, active engagement and technical assistance can be used to manage risk, strengthen businesses and support long-term value creation. Detailed coverage:Private capital as a driver of real-world changeLisa and Vishal reflect on their unconventional routes into investment and why they came to see finance as a powerful lever for influencing how businesses operate. From environmental challenges across Asia to workplace safety in India, both discuss translating sustainability issues into investment priorities. Finding opportunity in Asia's financing gapLisa explains how agricultural SMEs can sit at the centre of major supply chains while remaining underserved by mainstream finance. Private credit can provide the working and growth capital these businesses need while supporting improvements in traceability, land management, farmer resilience and environmental performance. When environmental risks become financial risksWater stress, biodiversity loss, land degradation and climate volatility can quickly affect yields, supply, procurement costs and ultimately repayment capacity. The discussion explores why looking beyond conventional financial analysis can reveal risks – and opportunities – that might otherwise be missed. Making human rights and worker safety an investment priorityVishal discusses the process of identifying human rights and safety risks across portfolio companies and their wider value chains. Rather than treating these issues as standalone policies, the focus has been on embedding them into business priorities, building internal capabilities and allocating the resources required to address them.Change takes time, buy-in and persistenceEmbedding responsible investment practices does not happen overnight. Vishal describes a three-to-four-year journey from initial conversations and internal buy-in to developing a framework that eventually expanded across upstream and downstream value chains. Embedding sustainability into investment termsThe conversation moves from identifying risk to operationalising it. Lisa explains how sustainability related due diligence, impact targets, action plans and landscape covenants can be incorporated directly into loan documentation, while Vishal outlines how human rights and safety commitments can become part of private equity investment agreements and portfolio action plans. From risk management to value creationResponsible investment can influence more than the individual company receiving capital. Lisa shares how active engagement and technical assistance can improve practices across supply chains, while both guests emphasise the importance of connecting material sustainability issues directly to business outcomes. Chapters:00:00 – Introduction: private capital in emerging markets01:59 – Lisa's journey from environmental issues to private credit04:29 – Vishal's journey: human rights and workplace safety07:47 – Finding opportunity in Asian agriculture and SMEs11:05 – When environmental risks become financial risks13:22 – Making human rights and worker safety a business priority16:20 – The journey from idea to implementation19:22 – Embedding sustainability into private credit23:09 – Integrating human rights into investment decisions25:33 – Lessons for the future of responsible investmentDisclaimer:This podcast and material referenced herein is provided for information only.

In this episode of the Research Like a Pro Genealogy podcast, host Nicole Dyer and co-host Diana Elder discuss how to write and publish a genealogical case study. Nicole defines a case study as a methodology-driven piece built around a specific research question, distinguishing it from research reports, proof arguments, genealogies, and ancestor profiles. She highlights major national and regional publications where researchers can find exemplary case studies, including the National Genealogical Society Quarterly (NGSQ), The American Genealogist, and state society journals. Diana explains how studying published case studies helps genealogists break through brick walls, discover new repositories, and master complex research strategies. Listeners learn the essential components of sound genealogical writing, including rigorous source citations and evidence correlation. Diana shares her personal journey of researching, writing, and publishing her article on Thomas Beverly Royston in the NGSQ. She outlines her step-by-step process, from reviewing submission guidelines and updating source citations to collaborating with a peer-review partner. Nicole and Diana describe the complete submission lifecycle, including peer-review critiques, conducting additional record searches, proofreading, and preparing cover photos for publication. Listeners learn practical strategies for publishing their own work, such as selecting the right journal, aligning research with the Genealogical Proof Standard, seeking peer feedback, and exercising patience through the revision process.

In this interview László Bartosiewicz, Emeritus Professor of Osteoarchaeology at Stockholm University, discusses his recent research, undertaken with Erika Gál, on hippophagy, the eating of horse meat, in medieval Hungary. He considers their various sources of information and how they compare the archaeological occurrence of horse bones and any cutting marks on those bones, to known, but sometimes ambiguous references in written sources to hippophagy.  This analysis demonstrates that people in the Carpathian basin ate horse meat, as well as keeping horses for many other purposes.  He also shows how the horse bones were used to make skates, runners for sledges and even weights for fishing nets.László discusses the cultural implications of hippophagy in terms of social status, ethnic background and geographic location.  He notes that while the Christian church did not out-right ban eating horse meat, it actively discouraged it, possibly because hippophagy may have been linked to earlier, non-Christian, religions and their celebrations.  He notes that in this way, the foods that people eat help to define them as ‘one of us' or ‘the other' in terms of social acceptability.This podcast is part of a series of interviews covering central Europe in the medieval period for MECERN and CEU Department of Historical Studies.

Annett hat 20 Jahre Markenstrategie-Erfahrung in eine KI programmiert, die erste Brand-Strategin im deutschsprachigen Raum. Ihr Produkt steht kurz vorm Beta-Launch, doch ihr Ziel klingt fast unrealistisch: 20 zahlende Kunden in nur 2 Wochen. In der heutigen Folge lernst du, warum Positionierung für B2B-Berater der am meisten unterschätzte Wachstumshebel ist und wie man aus 20 Jahren Expertenwissen ein skalierbares KI-Produkt mit echter Marktnachfrage baut.➡️ Bewirb dich auf eine kostenfreie 1:1 Scaling-Session: https://funnels.leadersmedia.de/scaling-session/➡️ Arbeite mit mir: https://funnels.leadersmedia.de/mentoring/?utm=youtubeIn dieser Live-Session sprechen wir darüber, wie Annett den Schritt vom klassischen Consulting zur KI-Gründerin gewagt hat, warum ihre KI-Beraterin auf Consulting-Niveau arbeiten soll statt einfacher Prompts, und wie sie ihr Produkt gegen die naheliegendste Frage verteidigt: Warum nicht einfach ChatGPT? Danach gehen wir ihrem größten Engpass auf den Grund: fehlende Vertriebserfahrung, ein viel zu ambitionierter Launch-Zeitplan und die Frage, ob 20 Jahre Expertise ohne einen einzigen eigenen Verkaufsabschluss überhaupt reichen, um am Markt zu bestehen.Ich bin Robert Heineke von Leaders Media und wir machen B2B-Unternehmen skalierbar.

In dieser Folge des Onlineshop Geflüster Podcasts vertrete ich eine klare Meinung: Freelancer sind keine Mitarbeiter, sondern in den meisten Fällen einfach eine Ausrede. Viele halten Freelancer für die eierlegende Wollmilchsau, flexibel, günstig, ab Tag eins Vollgas, ohne dass die Fixkosten steigen. In der Praxis erlebe ich fast immer das Gegenteil. Ich kann mich an keinen einzigen Fall erinnern, in dem jemand ein funktionierendes Team aus Freelancern hatte und damit glücklich war. Stattdessen: der Freelancer kostet 2.000 Euro im Monat und macht zehn Minuten Arbeit die Woche, oder es wurde einfach nur Geld bei Meta verbrannt, und der zweite und dritte lief genauso. Der Denkfehler ist offensichtlich. Wer für 300 oder 500 Euro im Monat jemanden nebenbei deine Ads betreuen lässt, kann keinen Durchbruch erwarten, wenn schon die Agentur für 2.000 Euro nichts gebracht hat. Ein Freelancer, der 20 Kunden parallel betreut, nebenbei Rechnungen schreibt und selbst akquiriert, kann sich unmöglich um alles kümmern. Dahinter steckt oft Angst vor Commitment, und Angst ist für mich ein Wegweiser. Wenn du dich nicht selbst mit Google oder Meta auseinandersetzen willst und deshalb auf Freelancer setzt, ist das das Signal, dich genau darum zu kümmern. Denn wie willst du bewerten, ob jemand einen guten Job macht, wenn du selbst keine Ahnung hast? Echtes Wachstum kommt nur durch Commitment: dich selbst einarbeiten oder wirklich jemanden fest einstellen. Wer sechs Monate mit einem Freelancer verliert, verliert das Wertvollste, das er hat, nämlich Zeit. Viel Spaß beim Anhören!

The hardest part of building a website isn't the technology anymore. It's the gut-wrenching business decisions that need to be resolved before you build page one — and nothing exposes those unresolved decisions faster than trying to agree on a navigation menu. In this case study episode, Jen breaks down what your website navigation is really communicating about your organization. Every item in your main menu signals a priority — and the interesting question is whether those priorities reflect your audience's needs or your internal structure. Tune in as we walk through how to turn your navigation from an organizational junk drawer into a strategic asset that communicates exactly what you want people to see.

Fesi Sitake walks Casey through the years that shaped his craft: rebuilding a winless Weber State into a playoff team, becoming an offensive coordinator at thirty, and joining Kalani Sitake's staff at BYU through the criticism, the COVID season, and the leap into the Big 12.The heart of the conversation is how he recruits. Fesi explains why he leads with radical honesty and accountability rather than promises, how he reads a player's character beneath the stats, and why culture outlasts NIL money when the two collide. He and Casey dig into loyalty, staying committed to the process without being attached to results, and the belief in yourself that every hard decision demands.This episode is a candid look at building people, not just teams. Leaders, recruiters, and anyone developing talent under pressure will find it essential. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Colleen was a pastor. She was teaching God's word, leading others, preaching identity in Christ. But behind closed doors, she felt like a hypocrite. She knew what God said about her. She could teach it. She believed it was true... for everyone else. But for her, it felt like words on a page that wouldn't land in her heart. And on top of that, she was carrying a lifetime of shame about her body. Since she was eight years old, shopping in the "chubby girls" section, she'd been told she had a problem to fix. She'd been on every diet. She'd tried to overachieve in everything else to make up for the one area she couldn't get right. She'd been given mixed messages her whole life: skinny is beautiful, but you're okay just the way you are. Don't overeat, but finish everything on your plate. Sugar is bad, but it's the reward for being good. By the time menopause hit, she was gaining more weight, trying harder and harder to lose it, and sinking into the lowest point of her life. She felt like a failure. She felt disgusted with herself. And the worst part? She couldn't reconcile what she knew in her head with what she felt in her heart. She had seen God heal her miraculously from incurable diseases. So why couldn't she get from what she knew about her identity in Christ to actually seeing it and feeling it in her life? She kept thinking: I'm the problem. I have to fix myself. Colleen had fought so many battles—behavioral modification, diet plans, spiritual disciplines, positive affirmations—but she was fighting the wrong battles. And when you fight the wrong battles, you don't win the war. When she heard Leanne's podcast with Dr. Lee Warren, she cried through the whole thing. She thought, This is too good to be true. But she was desperate. She had nowhere else to turn. And she asked God, Did you put Leanne in my path? In this powerful case study, Colleen shares how she finally learned to go to the root instead of just trying to fix the behavior. How she dismantled the lies that had infiltrated every area of her life and built what she calls "new beautiful beliefs"—not positive affirmations, but truth that actually landed in her bones. How she learned to be friends with her body again, to take off the minister hat and just be the woman, the essence, the soul God created her to be. Today, Colleen is at peace with herself for the first time in her life. She's not obsessed with her weight or her size. She's not fixated on what she looks like. She's learning to care for her body instead of punishing it. She's starting strength training—not to lose weight, but to get stronger and thrive. She's wearing clothes that make her feel alive instead of hiding in frumpy baggy outfits. She's showing up in rooms without worrying about how she looks or what she said. She's ushering in God's peace and grace instead of getting pulled into other people's chaos. And the sweetest part? She has a hope-filled expectation for the future. Instead of dreading getting older, fatter, more wrinkled, she's asking, What's the abundant part of life here for me in this season? She's living Psalm 92: Those who are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God. They will bear fruit even in old age. If you've ever felt like you know God's promises are true but they don't feel true for you, or if you've ever felt like a hypocrite because you can't receive what you teach, Colleen's story is for you. Because healing isn't about trying harder or praying more or fasting more. It's about going to the root. It's about learning how to take your thoughts captive in a way that actually works. And it's about finally surrendering—not giving up, but letting God show you the right battle to fight so you can win the war.

EPISODE DESCRIPTIONIn 1973, Jack and Janet Smurl moved into half of a double-block house on Chase Street in West Pittston, Pennsylvania. Jack's parents took the other half. For 13 years both households reported the same things through the same wall: knocking, voices calling in the family's own tones from empty rooms, a faceless black shape that walked through the wall and came out the other side. Three attempted exorcisms failed, and Janet said the reason was simple, that the thing crossed to whichever half the priest was not in. Mary Ann Poll tells the Smurls' account the way they told it, gives the doubters their full say, and follows the story to the prayers the family said ended it.EPISODE NOTES● Built on the shared wall. Jack's mother Mary heard the knocking on her side, heard a man and a woman fighting on a night Jack and Janet were not in the room, and watched the faceless shape come out her side after Janet watched it walk into the wall.● Phenomena covered: objects vanishing and returning, stains rising through fresh paint, knocking from inside a switched-off television, family voices calling from empty rooms, screams and pig grunts and hoofbeats, cold rooms, an unplugged radio at full volume, the stench of smoke and rotten meat, the 75-pound German shepherd slammed into a wall, Dawn attacked in the shower at 17, Shannon thrown down a flight of stairs at 8, the bed shaking, Janet pinned to the mattress, and Jack dragged off his knees while praying the rosary.● Their neighbor Debbie Watson reported screams from the house when no one was inside it, and scratching at an upstairs window screen.● The skeptical case is given in full: Paul Kurtz of CSICOP called it a hoax and pointed to the mine shafts under the street, the sewer odor, and the book deal that followed within months. Jack's 1983 brain surgery was raised publicly, and the family declined psychiatric testing.● The Church stayed in the middle. Chancellor Gerald Mullally said they believed the family but did not know what it was, and a diocesan priest spent two nights in the house in October 1986 with nothing happening.● Four days before Halloween 1986 the Smurls said the demons were gone, credited to their own parish and their own prayers rather than the three failed exorcisms. They left Chase Street in 1988, and later residents on both sides reported nothing. Jack died in 2017, Janet in 2026. Approximately 2,414 spoken words.SCRIPTUREPsalm 91:1, 2, 5 (NIV) — 'Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, he is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust. You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day.'SOURCES● Steve Corbett, Wilkes-Barre Times Leader, August 19, 1986● Associated Press and United Press International wire coverage, August 1986● Robert Curran, The Tribune (Scranton), October 27, 1986● Paul Kurtz, 'A Case Study of the West Pittston Haunted House,' The Skeptical Inquirer, Winter 1987● Robert Curran with the Smurls and Ed and Lorraine Warren, The Haunted: One Family's Nightmare (St. Martin's Press, 1988)

Should you use permanent life insurance to cover long-term care? Does converting a $1M pre-tax account before you stop working make mathematical sense? In this episode of Allworth's Money Matters, Scott and Pat walk through real-world portfolio case studies, dissect common tax myths, and break down where aggressive financial pitches fall short. Topics covered in this episode: The Rise of Prediction Markets: Why momentum traders are shifting from crypto to event betting, and how speculative traps disguise themselves as investing. Commercial Real Estate Realities: A look at how major leveraged properties can collapse, and the timeless importance of broad diversification.

Caller Case Study (Jeff): Debunking the “zero taxes” pitch.

No two people experience the Akashic Records the same exact way. Even the same person accessing the Records on two different occasions will likely have two different experiences. The Akashic Records will ALWAYS provide you with whatever you most need to heal, see, understand, feel, or know. The Records will orchestrate the most relevant, useful, meaningful, and necessary experience for you, every single time you journey there. To illustrate this point, I'm sharing two real case studies in this episode of INNER WORK: one of my very first openings of the Records back in 2004, and a recent opening from one of my Akashic Records Certification students. These openings are completely different experiences, and both are completely valid. In my 2004 opening, I found myself standing before massive, ancient wooden doors — carved, alive, waiting. What came through was a flood of light, a sense of homecoming, and a guide I hadn't met before: a Wizard-like figure who turned out to be one of my own Guides (a "Master") in the Records. There was a forehead-to-forehead energy exchange, a merging of light, and a wave of unconditional Love unlike anything I'd felt before. My student's experience was nothing like that. She went in with no agenda, just practicing surrender. What she got wasn't visions or grand revelations — instead, she initially came up against frustration, self-judgment, and the fear of disappointment... all common patterns she had been carrying in her life previously. The Records brought these up so she could fully feel them, see them for what they were, and then release them through an overwhelming wave of self-compassion that showed up as warmth, an orb of light, some tears, and colors swirling in her heart. Her healing was quieter, internal, and just as profound. The Akashic Records don't work off a script or specific expectations of what "should" happen when you connect. Sometimes you'll see things. Sometimes you'll hear things. Sometimes you'll just FEEL: a sensation, an emotion, a knowing. Sometimes "nothing" seems to happen at all, other than a deep silence... because that's the exact medicine you needed that day. Staying open to this vast range of possibilities is a key practice and the best way to receive what you MOST need from the Records, every single time.

The workshop is where we build your version of this: ► The next workshop: https://capitalism.com/bootcamp Huel sold to Danone for $1.15 billion and most of the internet missed it. Julian Hearn was in his mid-40s coming off a website that lost him money, he launched by posting in a Facebook group, and his first 2 orders went out of his own garage.

What if your retreat isn't struggling because of the economy, Facebook, or Instagram?   What if it's something much simpler?   In this episode of The Retreat Leaders Podcast, Shannon Jamail walks through a real retreat audit after a coaching call with one of the retreat leaders hosting at Retreat Ranch.   Within minutes, Shannon uncovered multiple issues that were hurting registrations. None of them required a bigger advertising budget. None of them required starting over. They simply needed to be fixed.   This episode is a practical checklist every retreat leader should complete before blaming social media algorithms or deciding that people just aren't buying retreats.   If you're wondering how to fill your retreat, why your retreat isn't selling, or how to improve your retreat marketing, this episode is packed with actionable ideas you can implement immediately.   In This Episode You'll Learn Why every retreat host must market consistently How to audit your retreat landing page for higher conversions The biggest SEO mistakes retreat leaders make How AI and keyword strategy are changing retreat marketing Why visibility matters more than follower count How to improve your retreat website for Google and ChatGPT Why your retreat promise must match your marketing The importance of trust signals like reviews, testimonials, and videos Why most retreat leaders stop promoting far too early How one small change can dramatically increase retreat registrations Retreat Audit Checklist ✔️ Are all retreat hosts actively marketing? ✔️ Are you taking advantage of every free visibility opportunity? ✔️ Does your landing page clearly communicate who your retreat is for? ✔️ Is your website optimized for SEO and AI search? ✔️ Do you have a keyword strategy? ✔️ Is your call-to-action obvious? ✔️ Did you start marketing early enough? ✔️ Are you building trust? ✔️ Is everyone using their email list? ✔️ Is your retreat easy to share? ✔️ Have you asked why people didn't book? ✔️ Does your content support your retreat promise? ✔️ Are you selling benefits instead of features? ✔️ Would ChatGPT understand your retreat from your website? ✔️ Are you creating evergreen content? ✔️ Have you audited yourself?   Key Takeaways   Visibility Is Earned Daily   There are thousands of retreats competing for attention. If you're not willing to spend 30 to 60 minutes every day talking about your retreat online, someone else will.   Your Landing Page Is Your Salesperson   If your website could describe a hundred different retreats, it isn't describing yours. Specific messaging wins.   SEO Is No Longer Optional   Google isn't your only search engine anymore.   People are searching inside ChatGPT, Pinterest, YouTube, and AI platforms every day. Your retreat needs to be discoverable everywhere.   Trust Is the New Marketing   Testimonials. Videos. Reviews. Photos. Podcast interviews. Your audience needs to trust you before they'll invest in you.   Small Fixes Often Produce Big Results   Most retreats don't fail because they're bad. They fail because people can't clearly understand what they offer or can't find them in the first place.   The Retreat Leaders Podcast Resources and Links: Learn to Host Retreats Join our private Facebook Group Get your legal docs for retreats Join our LinkedIn Group Apply to be a guest on our show Grab the AI + SEO Mini Course Grab the Pitch to Profit Mini Course My two favorite social media tools: Metricool and ManyChat  Thanks for tuning into the Retreat Leaders Podcast.

I sat down with Tara more than once, so what you get here is the sequence rather than the headline: a giant market changed in one way, a few hundred customers who acted like they worked there, a premium price in a category that competes on price, inventory funded with debt instead of equity, and a hiring order that held as the company grew.

What happens when a local business stops simply posting on social media and starts using a real visibility strategy? In this episode of Social Media Decoded, visibility strategist and Thames Media Solutions founder Michelle Thames takes listeners behind the scenes of a real local marketing case study with Honey Bee Gardens in Downers Grove, Illinois. In roughly 30 days, Michelle and her team helped the farm create a more strategic approach to social media, storytelling, email marketing, calls to action, community marketing, automation, and customer follow-up. And the results started showing up beyond likes and followers. The farm reported 180 new customers from social media in one week, Farm-to-Table Dinner registrations grew from approximately 20 to 67, and one promotional Reel generated 800+ comments. But this episode isn't about chasing viral numbers. It's about turning visibility into action. Michelle breaks down the exact strategy behind the results—and the lessons any local business owner can use to make their marketing work harder. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why posting consistently is not the same as having a marketing strategy How to identify a visibility problem inside a local business Why businesses should market experiences instead of constantly marketing themselves How storytelling creates curiosity and gives customers a reason to visit Why clarity is essential for converting social media followers into customers How Honey Bee Gardens' Farm-to-Table Dinner grew from approximately 20 registrations to 67 What Michelle's team learned from a Reel that generated more than 800 comments How automation helped turn social media interest into a clear path to registration Why engagement means very little without a next step How Honey Bee Gardens reported 180 new customers coming from social media in one week How strategic marketing helped rebuild momentum despite weather-related cancellations Why local businesses need multiple marketing touchpoints instead of relying solely on Instagram How email, Facebook, social media, websites, events, automation, and word of mouth work together Why every piece of content needs a specific job How to use data to adjust your content strategy in real time Why a strong customer experience has to exist before marketing can amplify it The difference between a social media problem and a visibility-system problem The Honey Bee Gardens Results When Thames Media Solutions began working with Honey Bee Gardens around July 27, one of the immediate goals was increasing awareness and driving more people to the farm's experiences. One major focus was the Farm-to-Table Dinner. At the beginning of the partnership, approximately 20 people were registered. That number grew to approximately 67 registrations. Content surrounding the dinner also generated significant interest, including one Reel that received 800+ comments. Instead of allowing that engagement to stop at the comment section, Michelle created an automated follow-up process through Meta's business tools so interested people could receive the registration link. The strategy connected: Content → Interest → CTA → Follow-Up → Link → Opportunity to Convert The farm also reported 180 new customers attributed to social media during one week, based on asking visitors how they discovered the farm. During the broader campaign period, website sessions also surpassed 8,300, representing an increase of approximately 160% compared with the previous period. Michelle explains why these numbers should not all be attributed to one Reel or one marketing channel. Social media, email, existing customers, word of mouth, the farm's reputation, repeated promotion, and other touchpoints all worked together. That's exactly why businesses need a marketing ecosystem. Stop Selling the Business. Start Selling the Experience. One of the biggest changes was shifting the messaging away from simply telling people to "visit the farm." Instead, the strategy answered the question: Why should someone come? Family activities. Adult experiences. Farm-to-Table dining. Flowers. Seasonal activities. Weekend outings. Homeschool experiences. Local events. The business wasn't simply selling access to a farm. It was showing potential customers: "Here's what your Saturday could look like." That shift makes marketing more relevant to the customer's actual life. The Visibility System Michelle shares a six-part framework local businesses can use to evaluate their marketing: 1. Discovery: Can the right people find you? 2. Curiosity: Does your content make them care? 3. Clarity: Do they understand what you're offering? 4. Action: Do they know what to do next? 5. Follow-Up: What happens after someone shows interest? 6. Retention: How are you getting customers to return? You don't necessarily need 100 more posts. You need these six pieces working together. Content Needs a Job Before creating your next Reel, Facebook post, email, or video, ask: What is this content supposed to do? Is it designed to create discovery? Build trust? Drive registrations? Capture leads? Start conversations? Bring customers through the door? When content has a clear job, marketing becomes much more strategic. Ready to Build Your Visibility Strategy? If you're posting consistently but aren't sure why that attention isn't turning into customers, clients, registrations, or revenue, Michelle offers 1:1 Visibility Strategy Calls. During the session, you'll look at your: Visibility Messaging Content Offers Customer journey Follow-up Marketing ecosystem The goal isn't another generic social media consultation telling you to post more Reels. It's identifying where people are dropping off and developing a visibility strategy connected to what your business is actually trying to accomplish. DM Michelle the word STRATEGY to learn more about booking a 1:1 Visibility Strategy Call. Join the Conversation Where is your visibility system breaking down? Discovery? Curiosity? Clarity? Conversion? Follow-up? Retention? If you're listening on Spotify, leave your answer in the episode comments. If you're listening on Apple Podcasts, leave a review and share your biggest takeaway from this case study. Key Takeaway The goal of visibility isn't to be seen by everybody. It's to be seen by the right people—and make it easy for them to take the next step. Don't just post. Tell better stories. Create curiosity. Give people a clear reason to act. Follow up. Watch the data. Adjust the strategy. And most importantly: Know the job of your content. Because when your content has a job, your marketing gets a whole lot smarter.

The ancient Greeks believed the human soul had three parts: reason, appetite, and something called thumos. Thumos is difficult to translate into English. It encompasses anger, noble spiritedness, pride, ambition, a sense of honor, and the drive to act. The Greeks thought it was essential to living a life of manly virtue, and my guest thinks we could use a lot more of it.His name is Mike LeBlanc, and he's a decorated Marine, a Harvard Business School grad, a tech founder, and the author of What If Anger Is the Answer? Today on the show, Mike and I discuss how the angry energy of thumos can help you close the gap between who you are and who you should be. We discuss why physical training helps cultivate thumos, how it can be an aid in overcoming appetites, overthinking, passivity, and cynicism, and the role it can play in being an effective leader.Resources Related to the PodcastAoM Article: Got Thumos?AoM Article: 10 Movies That Inspire ThumosAoM Article: Soundtrack for Your ThumosAoM Article: How to Make Anger Your AllyAoM Podcast #1,083: Good Anger — Harnessing a Misunderstood EmotionAoM Series: The Life of Jack London as a Case Study in the Power and Perils of ThumosConnect With Mike LeBlancMike's websiteMike on LinkedIn0:00 Introduction1:42 Meet Mike LeBlanc: Marines, Great Books & Robotics5:45 A Letter to His Son: What It Means to Be a Man8:07 Socrates' Metaphor: The Little Man, the Hydra & the Lion15:26 The Attributes of Thumos: Dignity, Pride & Shame17:36 Thumos and Action: The Soul's Three Parts at Work20:19 Thumos in Defending Boundaries25:31 Thumos and the Physical Body31:36 Thumos vs. Overthinking: The 70% Solution36:03 Thumos, Power & Authority in Leadership44:42 Overcoming Cynicism with Thumos49:46 Raising Boys with Thumos & Where to Find the BookSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
