How well do you know your ideal customers? Is this something you put the necessary time and attention into? A recent visit at Virgin Hotels in Nashville reminded me just how important this is and how far you can go to surprise and delight as I found lube and a vibrator at the bottom of their nightstand.  We'll talk through how this applies to your business, retention and referrals, and why we should be friends if you feel the same way.   Time Stamps:   (0:10) The Backstory (2:30) Knowing Your Customer (4:12) The Parent Letter (4:43) The Touch Points (6:10) Retention and Referrals ----------

In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Hope shares her story of marrying a grandiose, entitled abuser. Hope met her future husband at a church event, initially impressed by his charisma. Their relationship quickly progressed, leading to a whirlwind engagement and marriage. But once they were married, Hope's husband began to control her in every aspect of her life, leaving Hope in survival mode for years.  It's a story of grandiosity, manipulation, religion, financial control, rage, put downs, gaslighting, shame, guilt, crazy making, isolation, entitlement, being good enough, blame shifting, family dynamics, love bombing, mental health, post separation abuse, court, and self worth.

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery, I break down a simple truth I live by every day. Attitude is the foundation. Enthusiasm is the expression. When I move with purpose even on the mornings I feel stiff, tired, and anything but motivated, my actions create the energy I need. People read my face, my voice, my posture, and they respond to what I carry. If I choose purpose, others feel it and follow it. Introduction I did not wake up inspired. My back hurt. My shoulder was tight. I shuffled to the bathroom like a slow old man. Then I walked into the gym and a guy told me I always move with purpose. That compliment reminded me of the standard I set for myself. I do not wait for motivation. I act first. The energy shows up after. Body Awareness creates advantage I know eyes are on me. Clients, team, family, even strangers at the gym read my body language. They decide how far to push, whether to trust, and if they want to work with me based on what I show. When I smile, stand tall, and speak with conviction, I transmit certainty. Certainty moves deals forward. Action before motivation I never count on feeling ready. I get moving and let the movement warm up my mind. Action builds motivation. Motivation builds inspiration. Then I stack more action. That cycle is how I keep momentum, even when my body hurts or my schedule is heavy. Enthusiasm is a skill Enthusiasm is not fake. It is a decision to express what I believe. Shoulders back. Eye contact. Strong handshake. Clear tonality. Words that lead. I do this with my family so they can believe in me. I do it with clients so they can make confident decisions. If I carry worry, they mirror worry. If I carry certainty, they mirror certainty. Lead the room with your presence At the gym I skip every other stair. At the coffee shop Carla and I visit, we are met with smiles and service because we bring the same energy. People respond to the way you enter a space. Move like you have somewhere to be and something to build. Smile first. It opens doors. Say you are the best and then deliver Big claims force big delivery. When I say I market the best, negotiate the best, and deliver the best, I give my subconscious direct orders. Then I back it up with preparation, presence, and follow through. Clients already believe you are the best when they call you. Do not talk them out of it by being timid, worried, or slow. Protect client experience with your tone Problems happen. Appraisals come in low. Inspections get messy. Your job is not to transfer panic. Your job is to take on the worry and lead with solutions. Calm tone. Clear path. People want to feel they made the right decision when they chose you. Practical cues to switch on enthusiasm Smile before you call. Stand up when you negotiate. Use your hands when you explain. Nod to confirm understanding. Keep your voice steady. Dress with intention. If you feel yourself fading, lean your shoulders forward and let your body pull your mind into motion. Forward momentum beats hesitation. Conclusion Attitude sets your standard. Enthusiasm shows the world your standard. Stop waiting to feel ready. Take the action that moves you. Smile with purpose. Speak with conviction. Walk like you mean it. When you do, people feel safe making decisions around you. That is leadership. That is how you produce. Reader Questions Where in your day do you usually wait for motivation, and what action can you take first to spark it instead Think about your last client meeting. What did your face, tone, and posture communicate before you said a word What bold claim about your service are you willing to make today, and what specific action will you take to back it up Notable Quotes Attitude is the foundation and enthusiasm is the expression. Do not wait for motivation. Take the action and let the action create the energy. Clients already believe you are the best or they would not have called. Do not talk them out of it. Follow A.Z.

In this episode of 7 Figure Annuity Sales, hosts Caleb North and Chad Owen explain why the most effective agents don't just take client requests at face value—they dig deeper to understand why clients are asking for what they're asking. Clients often come in convinced they need a specific product or feature, but the truth is those requests may not align with their actual goals. By uncovering the reason behind the request, you can get to the root of the problem and provide a solution that truly meets their needs.

We know that you know your neuro clients have a pelvic floor… but are you doing anything to help it?? You may be surprised how many of your clients have weak, tight, spastic, or flaccid pelvic floors, and the issues arising from this may be preventing them from fully engaging in their lives. If you want to help but don't know where to start, this episode is for you! We break it down for the non-pelvic floor PT and give you the skinny on how to screen and incorporate an easy, functional progression of activities into what you're already doing with your neuro clients. Grace Weiland, PT, DPT, CAPP-PH, a physical therapist specializing in pelvic floor therapy, shares her expertise on an often overlooked but critical aspect of treating pelvic floor dysfunction in neurological rehabilitation. Working in a rural critical access hospital, Grace highlights the importance of pelvic floor health for all patients, not just those with specific pelvic issues. She explains that pelvic floor dysfunction can significantly impact quality of life, leading to social isolation and reduced participation in activities. Grace discusses how pelvic floor problems are common but not normal, emphasizing the need for healthcare providers to approach the topic professionally and sensitively. She offers practical strategies for screening and addressing pelvic floor issues, including breathing techniques, functional exercises, and subtle strengthening methods that don't require invasive interventions. The conversation reveals the interconnectedness of pelvic floor health with overall body mechanics, highlighting how exercises targeting stability, balance, and proper breathing can improve pelvic floor function. Grace will be presenting a detailed webinar on this topic during the upcoming NeuroSpark quadrimester, breaking down approaches for different neurological impairments and providing clinicians with valuable tools to support their patients' comprehensive rehabilitation. **A correction note from the episode: The pelvic floor co-activates when any of the following 4 muscles are activated: glute max, hip adductors, Transverse abdominus, obturator internus. Incontinence Severity Index (ISI) To get access to Grace's webinar go to www.joinneurospark.com to learn how to become a Sparky the next time NeuroSpark opens!

This week we sit down with Suzanne Konstance, Vice-President and General Manager for Legal and Regulatory US at Wolters Kluwer. She outlines how the company supports professionals in highly regulated fields with software and authoritative content. Operations span multiple countries with a deliberately local approach, where teams design solutions for each market. Listeners get a clear view of scope, from enterprise legal management to recent additions such as Brightflag, alongside deep subject expertise.Konstance explains a core focus on regulatory compliance across securities, tax, IP, and employment. The aim is simple, help clients stay out of court. Continuous change drives editorial work, with authors and editors tracking shifts, executive orders, and practical effects. Provenance, version history, and context matter, supported by structured meta tagging which helps search and AI retrieve the right source every time.In a segment on trust, the conversation moves to standards for accuracy and auditability. Clients tell Wolters Kluwer quality outranks speed for research, so the team emphasizes authoritative sources and transparent sourcing. Konstance walks through a recent non-exclusive content license with Harvey for primary law from US and German collections, part of a broader collaboration strategy which also includes VitalLaw AI and new cross-border features. The goal is a reliable workflow where answers cite sources, show currency, and fit real practice.Real user labs reinforce these priorities. At AALL, librarians worked hands-on in a sandbox session with no guided prompts, pushing tools to limits and asking tough questions. One theme dominated, transparency, with live citations and source trails visible during use. Editors remain in the loop to curate likely questions, collect feedback, and refine outputs, while openness about progress helps teams separate market sizzle from dependable results.Looking ahead, Konstance expects roles to shift toward managing agents and setting clear instructions, similar to supervising a room full of interns, with strong expertise still required for oversight. Teams will need to train newcomers on fundamentals, auditing, and controls, so technology serves professionals, not the reverse. She also shares sources she follows, industry conversations with customers, conferences, LinkedIn, X, plus guidance from a long-standing internal Center of Excellence for AI.

Are you a birth worker who's pouring your hearts into consults—only to hear crickets after? You show up, connect, listen, and feel that deep spark of this is why I became a doula… but then silence. Or worse, a polite “we went with another doula.”In this episode of Loudmouth Lisa, I'm breaking down exactly why ghosting doesn't start after the consult—it starts before. You'll learn how to set the tone before a consultation, how to lead (not linger) during the call, and how to keep her engaged afterward so she feels safe, guided, and ready to say yes.Because ghosting isn't rejection—it's a leadership gap. And once you close that gap? You'll start closing clients and turning inquiries into contracts.Want to master this for real?

Send us a textHave you ever noticed how some weeks you feel unstoppable—energized, focused, and confident—while other weeks you feel tired, foggy, or just not yourself? That's not random—it's your hormones.Most of us have been taught to only pay attention to the menstrual phase of our cycle, but that's just one part of the story. In reality, our bodies move through four unique phases each month, and those shifts impact everything from our mood and energy to our cravings, confidence, and productivity.For those navigating perimenopause, when cycles become more irregular and symptoms like fatigue, mood swings, brain fog, and hot flashes can intensify, learning to work with your hormones can be a game-changer. Cycle syncing strategies and food-based tools like seed cycling can help smooth out some of those ups and downs, offering more balance and resilience through the transition.In today's episode, we're diving into cycle syncing and including some seed cycling insight—two powerful ways to support your hormones and align your lifestyle with your body's natural rhythm. We'll walk through all four phases of the cycle, explore what's happening hormonally, and share practical ways to sync your nutrition, exercise, and even your workflow so you can feel more balanced and empowered all month long.Support the showWork with me: https://linktr.ee/missy_propperSign up for the Authentic Wellness newsletter for more great information!

Welcome to another episode of Build a Better Agency! This week, host Drew McLellan shines a light on an area vital to every agency's growth: how to show up for clients and prospects in ways that build genuine trust, loyalty, and long-term relationships. To explore this undervalued but crucial topic, Drew is joined by Jamie Shibley, founder of The Expressory and expert in strategic engagement and relationship-driven agency growth. Jamie shares her fascinating journey from two decades in corporate IT and ecommerce management to launching her own agency, where she helps businesses nurture relationships through intentional and personalized engagement. Through insightful stories and real-life examples, Jamie and Drew examine why clients crave more than just a transactional relationship—they want to feel seen, valued, and heard. Together, they unpack the psychology behind meaningful connections, discussing simple but powerful ways agencies can differentiate themselves by caring more deeply and showing it consistently. Listeners will learn how to communicate care and appreciation, not just during the wooing phase, but throughout the client journey. Jamie reveals the six strategic storylines that should guide your client engagement, offers practical tips for intentional gifting (hint: it's more about thoughtfulness than price or heavy branding), and shares eye-opening data on the tangible impact of consistent relationship nurturing. Drew and Jamie also address common barriers, like lack of time or uncertainty about what to say, and provide actionable strategies to overcome them.   If you're looking to solidify your client retention, inspire advocacy, and create memorable experiences that set your agency apart, this episode is a must-listen. Discover how small, intentional acts can have outsized effects on your business—and why now, more than ever, demonstrating care can be your most powerful growth lever.   A big thank you to our podcast's presenting sponsor, White Label IQ.

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Are you wondering how AI will really change the way agencies work? Will it replace your team, or make them better than ever? Artificial intelligence continues to be at the forefront of most tech conversations, and that's exactly why agency owners can't afford to ignore it. Today's guest believes the real future of AI in agencies isn't about replacement—it's about augmentation. Humans bring the high-leverage ideas, AI scales the execution, and the magic happens in the collaboration between the two. That's why he challenges his team to master a skill first—understanding every step—before delegating pieces of it to AI. By doing so, they not only achieve stronger results but also gain the ability to explain, teach, and refine the process. For agencies, this thoughtful integration turns AI from a threat into a powerful accelerator. Josh Payne is a serial entrepreneur and the founder of Coframe, which helps businesses continuously optimize their digital experiences. Before that, he co-founded Autograph, scaling it to unicorn status within just over a year, and previously sold his first company, AccessBell, to India's Tata Group. A Stanford AI researcher and occasional lecturer, Josh has blended tech, entrepreneurship, and big-name partnerships into a career full of lessons that agency owners can apply to their own journey. In this episode, we'll discuss: The power of just asking. Should we be worried about AI? Why the human element still wins. When AI shows empathy.

Ready to design faster and smarter? Go to wix.com/studio to get started. Building Big, Fast (and What Comes After) Josh's first exit was AccessBell, acquired by Tatai Group. Then came Autograph, the NFT platform co-founded with connections in the entertainment industry that quickly attracted celebrities and athletes like Tom Brady. The company went unicorn in about a year, proof that timing, partnerships, and execution can fuel explosive growth. But Josh is quick to admit that pace sets a dangerous bar. When he launched Coframe, progress felt slower. The natural question arises: why am I not going as fast as I did last time? For any agency owner who's had one “big win,” the fear of never matching that level again is real. For Josh, it comes down to stop chasing vanity metrics and focusing on the real value you're creating. The long burn, when tied to a larger vision, often builds a stronger foundation. The Power of Just Asking One of the best stories from Josh's Autograph journey was how Tom Brady got involved. It was a simple conversation, made possible because a co-founder's family knew Brady. They took a shot, asked for a call, and suddenly, an NFL legend wasn't just an investor—he was a co-founder. They were, of course, very lucky, but the lesson for Josh was that you'll never land your dream client (or partner) if you don't step up to bat. Too many agencies convince themselves certain clients are “out of reach,” when in reality, decision-makers are more approachable than you think. Even the busiest people have time for the right conversation if you show up as a person, not a pitch machine. Separating Yourself from Your Business Identity With all these exits, Josh is still struggling with the identity crisis that comes with selling or stepping away from a company. Like Jason back when he sold his agency, Josh felt like he'd sold his soul and is still wrestling with how to separate being a tech founder from just being Josh. Your business is not your identity, as performance coach Todd Herman (the guy behind Kobe Bryant's “Black Mamba” alter ego) helped Jason understand. You're not an “agency owner” by identity. You're a creator, innovator, and strategist. Those traits travel with you into whatever you do next. Lose the label, keep the essence. Fighting the Metrics Spiral Every agency owner knows the feeling: dashboards screaming that you're 30% down from last month, the creeping panic that you're “slipping.” Josh admits he's guilty of chasing these vanity metrics too, and it's exhausting. The problem is that short-term sprints cloud the long-term vision. But focusing only on the long-term isn't right either. You can't sit back dreaming and stop executing. Josh calls it a balance game. Some days require in-the-weeds execution. Other days call for pulling up to 30,000 feet and resetting the vision. And finding ways to get into that higher-level thinking state is crucial. Finding Flow and Big Picture Clarity One of Josh's surprising hacks for perspective is the float tank, a sensory deprivation chamber where you float weightless in silence. He describes it as being suspended between sleep and wakefulness, giving him the clarity to see the forest instead of the trees. For him, a float every couple of months resets his ability to think deeply. This lucid dreaming state allows him to consciously control his thought process, which is hard to do on a day-to-day basis. There are different ways to achieve this “flow state” like flying planes or running, where focus on the task at hand frees the brain to process ideas in the background. The lesson for agency owners is that you need intentional “out of the weeds” time. Whether it's floating, running, or flying, find your version of the float tank. Should We Be Worried About AI? Where is AI really going, and should agencies be worried? Josh approaches the subject with cautious optimism. He admits there are possible negative outcomes—whole essays have been written about the risks—but he believes society still has control of its destiny. Governance, adaptation, and human ingenuity will help us navigate the “intelligence explosion” ahead. For agency owners, that perspective matters. The fear-driven narrative (“AI will replace us all”) misses the more useful question: how do we adapt to stay ahead? Josh's view is that AI will become a force multiplier, but only for those who deeply understand their craft first. At Coframe, he leads his team with the mantra: “first we are artisans, then we are automators.” Josh encourages his team to master processes as humans before trying to automate them. An artisan, he says, is someone who not only performs a task with taste and skill but can also teach it to an apprentice. If you can teach it, you can usually train AI to do it too. This is a powerful framework for agencies. Too many people treat AI as a magic shortcut, asking it to “do the thing” without knowing what “the thing” really requires. But if you've built the human expertise first, AI becomes like a hyper-capable apprentice, great at code generation, design variations, or crunching vast amounts of data, but still lacking the higher-level strategy and creative ideation that only humans can bring. Why the Human Element Still Wins Lots of people are already trying to launch “AI-only agencies.” This is a mistake. Clients don't just want data or deliverables; they want connection, guidance, and trust. Even as AI accelerates execution, the human side, like the ability to understand a client, guide their decisions, and translate insights into strategy, remains irreplaceable. This is especially true when clients don't know what to ask. Tools may say, “Ask me anything,” but most business owners don't even know where to start. That's where the agency earns its keep: by framing the right questions and then leveraging AI to deliver smarter, faster answers. AI Limitations on Emotion and Empathy Empathy remains the most valuable and, so far, irreplaceable element that AI cannot afford clients, and where human intervention continues to be necessary. However, as these models get more and more aligned, clients are starting to see cases where the AI is able to show empathy for your situation. For instance, Jason recently tested AI with his own medical challenges. After foot surgery complications, he uploaded photos of his wound to an AI tool and was surprised at how sympathetic the responses felt. It wasn't just giving data—it was offering encouragement, warnings, and even emergency advice when he tested it with old images. Josh had his own example: experimenting with fasting while using AI to predict weight loss. The model gave estimates but also warned him about the risks and refused to encourage unsafe behavior. Modern models are being trained not just for accuracy but to reflect human values, to ensure they're aligned with human interests. Balancing AI Alignment With Performance This fine-tuning process with newer AI models makes them more positive and empathetic. But there's a trade-off: aligned models can lose some raw performance on benchmarks. For agencies, this means two things: AI tools will continue evolving in personality and usefulness. The best results will still come from humans who know how to wield them—pairing empathy, strategy, and creativity with AI's speed and scale.

Insurance has a huge amount of specialisms that don't always cross over, which means that we can go our whole careers as insurance professionals, having a rough idea about what a particular class of business does, but not really ever appreciating the detailed picture. I think Trade Credit is one of those classes and that's something we should all fix, not least because it's a product that our clients could probably all benefit from That's why I'm really glad that an element of this podcast is a really useful primer on the class and that my guest today has one of the biggest single jobs in this line anywhere in the world and has over twenty years' experience to share with us. Sarah Murrow is President & CEO at Allianz Trade Americas and what follows is a helpful rundown of this global and really useful class of business. This is insurance in its purest and most relevant form – risk taking that allows customers to stick to what they're best at and also improves their return on capital. This is also a line that provides valuable advice as well as a financial product and is so embedded with its clients that they communicate with it every day. In short all of us in the rest of the P&C world have an awful lot to learn from trade credit. And as prominent Trade Credit insurers begin to appear under the Lloyd's platform, this is a class we should all be getting to know a little better. Sarah is a great guest and our conversation encompasses themes as broad as global economics and politics as well as the cut and thrust of insuring trade receivable assets.

Send us a textBuilding a consulting firm from scratch requires more than expertise—it demands vision, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to culture. Edward Beals, founder of Loft9, demonstrates how these principles can transform a startup consultancy into an acquisition target in less than a decade.Starting with just two founders and modest investment, Loft9 achieved remarkable first-year results: 17 employees and $2.2 million in revenue. Beals attributes this success to their cultural foundation, what he calls the "trifecta of awesomeness"—hiring people who are smart, driven, and humble. This cultural emphasis wasn't just internal; it became their market differentiator when competing against established players."Clients are looking for a partner, someone who's going to roll up their sleeves and get in the trenches with them," Beals explains. "Not just someone to come in, tell them what to do, and walk away with a fancy deck left behind." This philosophy, combined with their co-delivery quality assurance model, helped them win business despite never being the lowest-priced option.When SIA Partners acquired Loft9 in 2019, the deal came together with surprising speed—just three months from letter of intent to closing. The acquisition offered strategic advantages for both companies: SIA gained a West Coast presence, while Loft9 accessed complementary capabilities in design thinking and data science without having to build them from scratch.For aspiring consultancy founders, Beals offers practical wisdom: invest in marketing earlier than you think necessary (particularly SEO), surround yourself with critical perspectives that challenge your ideas, and find deep personal motivation—for him, it was providing for his children—that will sustain you through the inevitable challenges of entrepreneurship.Want to transform your consultancy's value?

Send us a textTrust isn't optional in home care—it's everything. When families search for care providers, the overwhelming majority look to online reviews as their north star. A staggering 94% of consumers consider these reviews trustworthy guides in their search for senior care services, with most expecting at least five reviews before they'll even consider a provider.The math is beautifully simple: more quality reviews lead directly to more qualified leads choosing your agency over competitors. But the challenge lies in systematically capturing feedback at the right moments. Unlike retail experiences, home care satisfaction can shift dramatically from one day to the next. That's why timing is everything—when a family member calls to express how much they love their caregiver, that peak satisfaction moment is your golden opportunity to request a review.Strategic implementation makes all the difference. Using multi-channel approaches—personalized texts, emails, thank-you cards with QR codes—increases response rates by an astounding 340% compared to single-method requests. The most successful agencies build review generation into their operational workflows, training every team member to recognize review opportunities and follow through with appropriate scripts. From 30-day check-ins to milestone celebrations, these touchpoints become natural moments to capture authentic family experiences.The power of professional endorsements can't be overstated. Reviews from social workers, healthcare partners, and community connections carry exceptional weight, signaling to potential clients that your agency has earned respect within the professional care ecosystem. Meanwhile, handling negative feedback with grace demonstrates your commitment to continuous improvement—remember, your response isn't for the reviewer but for every future family who will read it.Ready to transform your online reputation into a consistent lead generation engine? Start with a focused seven-day pilot program targeting your most satisfied families. With the right approach, you'll create a self-sustaining review flywheel that turns stars into starts—where every positive review brings another family through your door, seeking the exceptional care your agency provides.Continuum Mastery Circle IntroVisit our website at https://asnhomecaremarketing.comGet Your 11 Free Home Care Marketing Guides: https://bit.ly/homecarerev

How do you move from taking whatever business you can get to building a purpose-driven, aligned client base? The right-fit client base fuels not only revenue but also passion and long-term fulfilment. In this episode of The Agency Blueprint, we discuss how agency owners can stop chasing clients and start choosing them. We also explain why it's time to stop being a generalist trying to appeal to everyone and take a bold positioning, even if it means turning some people away. Don't miss this episode to learn about the power of authentic storytelling to your audience, which builds connection and trust! Key Questions: [02:14] Who is your true Ideal Client Profile, and what do they really care about? [04:20] Can you name a client you didn't enjoy working with? Why? [05:36] Are you afraid of repelling potential clients by taking a clear stand in your messaging? [11:44] Where does your ideal client actually spend their time, and are you showing up there? [17:40] Can your story of failure help someone avoid the same mistake? What You'll Discover: [02:14] Defining your Ideal Client Profile (ICP): demographics, psychographics, buying triggers, and decision-making structures. [04:20] Why defining who you don't like working with can often be more revealing than listing who you do. [05:36] Why taking a strong position in your messaging, even at a cost, makes you magnetic to the right clients. [06:55] Understanding how your ideal client makes buying decisions helps you mirror their process and build trust faster. [08:24] Why tailored positioning isn't a marketing tactic but how you build seamless, mutual trust and fit. [09:44] How choosing the right clients allows you to enjoy your work without the dread of toxic interactions. [11:47] How to map your client's professional environment so you can market more strategically. [13:00] How a small niche craft business scaled massively by starting in one Facebook group and expanding consistently. [15:04] How being more human and vulnerable in your content helps build authentic connections and trust. [17:40] The power of authentic storytelling in increasing audience trust and helping potential clients feel more connected. [19:44] When you stop chasing and start choosing your clients, your business becomes more impactful and joyful.

**Skip the Cold Open at 11:39**Most people will probably say that having fewer clients that pay more is clearly better. For over 6 years. we've thought the opposite. That having more clients is more stable and the loss of those clients impacts the business less.As we've grown the last (almost) 7 years, we've picked up on a few nuances where... yes, we're right... but to an extent we have to acknowledge that favoring client acquisition over client revenue is only part of the equations.----------------------------------JOIN THE FREE DISCORDhttps://discord.gg/uvHRRRFVRDOur recommended agency tools:everbrospodcast.com/recommended-tools/----------------------------------⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐As always, if you enjoyed this episode or this podcast in general and want to leave us a review or rating, head over to Apple and let us know what you like!

Ever wonder why people don't take you seriously—even when you're smart and hardworking? In this episode, AJ and Johnny reveal the three most common low value signals that quietly repel respect: being supplicative (begging for approval), combative (using force or intimidation), and competitive (constantly one-upping). Backed by research from UCLA, Harvard, and game theory, they explain how these blind spots sabotage influence and connection—and how to flip them into high value behaviors that attract trust, respect, and opportunity. You'll learn why excessive apologizing, fake “alpha” dominance, and relentless bragging send the wrong message, and how small shifts—like standing tall, reframing with “we” language, and spotlighting others—instantly change how people respond to you. If you've ever felt overlooked, underestimated, or like your hard work isn't respected, this episode shows you how to break free from low value patterns and project real confidence. What to Listen For [00:00:00] Why people don't take you seriously: the hidden impact of low value signals [00:01:02] Supplicative behaviors—apologizing, shrinking, and begging for approval [00:02:36] The “nice guy” conundrum: why being accommodating makes you forgettable [00:03:25] Combative behaviors—dominance, intimidation, and fake alpha posturing [00:03:48] Why real strength is presence, not shouting [00:04:14] Competitive behaviors—one-upping, bragging, and name-dropping [00:05:31] Why constant competition makes you high-maintenance [00:06:03] High achievers' blind spot: mistaking resumes for personality [00:06:24] Client story: Jim's sales calls flipped once he stopped proving himself [00:07:21] The three low value signals summed up—and the high value alternative [00:07:46] Weekly challenge: audit your signals and flip them into high value behaviors [00:08:11] Take the free Influence Index quiz to discover your influence score A Word From Our Sponsors Stop being over looked and unlock your X-Factor today at ⁠⁠unlockyourxfactor.com⁠⁠  The very qualities that make you exceptional in your field are working against you socially.  Visit the ⁠⁠artofcharm.com/intel ⁠⁠for a social intelligence assessment and discover exactly what's holding you back.
