Posing doesn't have to feel awkward, forced, or inconsistent. In this episode, James Patrick breaks down 8 practical posing tips he's used across more than 800 magazine covers to help photographers confidently direct real clients, not professional models. You'll learn how to create structure at the start of a shoot, guide clients into flattering body angles, fix posture and hands, use props intentionally, and capture natural expressions that feel authentic and powerful. These are real, on-set cues and micro-adjustments you can start using immediately to improve your client experience and elevate your images. If you've ever struggled with posing direction or felt unsure leading people in front of the camera, this episode gives you a clear, repeatable system that works across branding, headshots, lifestyle, and editorial photography.

If you've ever jolted awake at night remembering something you forgot to do for a client, this episode will hit close to home. We're talking about why so many business owners unintentionally drop the ball—not because they don't care, but because their entire client process lives in their head, scattered across notes, emails, and memory. This episode is a grounding reminder that over-delivering, late invoices, and constant mental load aren't signs of failure—they're signs that your systems need to step in and carry the weight this year.   xoxo, Chelsi Jo . . . . .

Interior designers often find themselves defending beautiful, well-considered ideas to hesitant clients. But what if that hesitation isn't resistance—it's biology? In this episode, Kimberley Seldon speaks with designer and BOD™ Member, Martha Lowry about neuro-aesthetics and how the brain responds to space long before logic or language catch up. This conversation reframes how designers understand client reactions, decision-making, and emotional buy-in. You'll learn why a room can be technically perfect and still feel “wrong,” how colour and materials trigger powerful subconscious responses, and why deeper, more thoughtful client questioning leads to smoother projects and fewer revisions. By understanding how memory, emotion, and lived experience influence perception, designers can reduce friction, build trust faster, and create interiors that feel as good as they look. What You'll Learn in this Episode: - Why clients respond emotionally to space before they can articulate preferences - How neuro-aesthetics explains hesitation, resistance, and indecision - Why “good design” doesn't always equal emotional comfort - How memory and lived experience shape reactions to colour and materials - The role of biophilia in creating calm, restorative interiors - How deeper client questioning builds trust and reduces revisions

A new year always brings with it a sense of possibility. It's that “that was then, this is now” moment where you get to draw a line in the sand and decide what happens next. But let's be honest, for many salon owners right now, business feels tougher than ever. Clients are cautious, bookings feel unpredictable, and the world around us feels uncertain.In this episode, I talk about the reality of running a salon in times like these and why focusing on everything outside your control is a guaranteed way to feel overwhelmed. Global uncertainty, economic pressure, and changing consumer behaviour are real, but they're not where your power lies.Instead, I break down exactly what is within your control, both as a salon owner and as a stylist. Because when you focus on the controllables, the systems, the standards, the leadership, and the client experience, you put yourself back in the driver's seat. And when you do that, growth isn't just possible. It's predictable.IN THIS EPISODE:[01:43] The reality that many salon owners are facing right now[02:23] Not everyone is struggling, why that matters[03:06] Why being in business has always been hard[03:32] Global uncertainty and its impact on client spending[04:17] What you can control vs what you can't[04:50] Control the controllable, leadership starts here[05:09] What stylists are in control of every single day[07:42] What salon owners are in control of[09:32] Why focusing on the controllables guarantees growthWant MORE to help you GROW?

I don't remember my first client's name.I barely remember the details of her sleep plan.But I remember exactly how she made me feel.This mom was the first person who ever paid me to support her family as a certified sleep consultant. Her six year old had been bedsharing for years, struggled with separation anxiety, and had never learned how to fall asleep independently.I had the training. I had the certification.What I didn't have was experience with big kids or confidence that came from doing the work.And yet, I showed up. I leaned on what I knew. I coached her with intention. And together, we helped her daughter gain independence, confidence, and better sleep.What stayed with me all these years later is not the method we used or how long it took. It's the way that first client trusted me. The way she valued my guidance. The way that experience made me realize, “I can do this.”This episode is for anyone who feels like they don't know enough yet.For anyone staring at their first client thinking, “What if I mess this up?”For anyone learning something new and wishing confidence would arrive first.It doesn't.Confidence is built by doing the work, not before it.If you are committed to learning, showing up fully, and supporting families with care and professionalism, you will figure it out.

John Minks is a gifted musician with over 15 years of exploring and studying the healing power of sound. John's first experience with sound healing was in Amsterdam in 2006. Since then, his tone quest has taken him from the Brazilian rainforest to the islands of Hawai'i and beyond. He began his study of the didgeridoo while in the jungles of Brazil in 2007. John has also studied guitar for the past 10 years and has extensive experience in its healing power with plant medicines. John has attended and spoken at Sage Sound Academy and has attended gong workshops with Don Conreaux and 9 Ways Academy. John has compiled his array of knowledge to offer a truly unique sound experience. More than a sound bath, his sessions are more of a molecular massage with sound. Clients are taken on an astral journey using a mix of indigenous and modern instruments. John offers sound baths at a variety of locations in the Hudson Valley and New York City. In addition to the didgeridoo and gong, John's instruments include chimes, flutes, khomus, Tibetan singing bowls, shruti box, handpan, tuning forks, among others. https://deepspacesound.life/ https://www.instagram.com/deep_space_sound/ Natalie Brown, host of Sounds Heal Podcast: http://www.soundshealstudio.com http://www.facebook.com/soundshealstudio http://www.instagram.com/nataliebrownsoundsheal http://www.youtube.com/soundshealstudio email: soundshealstudio@gmail.com Music by Natalie Brown, Hope & Heart http://www.youtu.be/hZPx6zJX6yA

What if the most powerful communicators aren't the most polished ones? In this episode, Dia Bondi shares how watching a three-day communication skills class transformed her life. She had no resume to support her desire, but she made the ask that changed everything: "Will you apprentice me?" That mentor said yes, and 25 years later, she's still helping leaders speak powerfully from who they truly are. Dia's work goes beyond messaging to something deeper: helping clients articulate what they have to say before figuring out how to say it. She's coached VC-backed founders past Series B, VP-level executives, and even helped Rio de Janeiro win the right to host the 2016 Olympics (a $7 billion decision) without ever knowing who referred her. Dia reveals the six attributes of the most compelling communicators: they make the choice to be big in big moments, they know how to make strategic asks, they absolutely know their voice, they've got killer setups for their asks, they bridge their voice to the business really well, and they prep on purpose by actually talking through what they'll say.  She shares the story of a founder who created a 40-minute story to invite existing customers to help inform what gets built next. That task drove $10 million of value in the business. Dia also explains why the most powerful moment in her career might have been her first deal that included both cash and shares, because once she did it once, she now had the confidence and understanding to recreate it over and over again.   [00:08:20] The Ask That Changed My Life Watched three-day communication skills class about storytelling in business Had no resume to support desire to do that work Asked if he would apprentice her, and he did 25 years later still finds it compelling because it truly moves the needle for people [00:10:20] What You Have to Say vs. How to Say It Messaging is "how do I say it?" but Dia lives in the step before that "What is it that you have to say?" Until a leader can articulate things that feel innate but aren't obvious, can't create the message First articulate what you have to say, then figure out how best to express it [00:12:00] The 40-Minute Story Worth $10 Million Former client needed to invite existing customers to participate in informing product development Put together compelling story bridging what founder has to say with story of business Set up really killer ask, 40-minute story to set up that ask Client secured participation needed, will drive about $10 million of value in business [00:17:20] The First Deal With Shares Introduction to blockchain company working directly with founders First time setting up deal that included both cash and shares It paid off, and importantly gave confidence and understanding Once you do it first time, now have opportunity to do it over and over because it's in your radar [00:20:00] Helping Rio Win the Olympics bid Got a request over the internet: "We heard you're good, can you give us a call?" Turned out to be production team working on Rio's bid for 2016 Olympics $7 billion decision, got to work in those teeny tiny rooms where stories get crafted Still doesn't know who referred her, but knows what part of work it came from [00:24:40] Six Attributes of Powerful Communicators One: Make choice to be big in big moments (not about being polished or showboat) Two: Know how to make strategic asks and use asking strategically Three: Absolutely know their voice and can give good feedback to creative collaborators Four: Got killer setups for the asks they make of partners [00:27:20] The Last Two Attributes Five: Bridge their own voice to the business really well Six: Prep on purpose by actually talking through it, not just thinking about it One founder's pregame routine: end call, go downstairs, change shirt, wash face, drink water If he did that six times in day, he'd go through six shirts [00:30:00] Kevin's $16.1 Million Conversation 2003, owned cleaning and restoration company with website producing $15,000/month Mentor Joe Polish: "Come speak at event, document what you do into a course" Had never spoken publicly before, invested in Speaker's Bootcamp training Made $35,000 in course sales that day, but that wasn't the big win [00:32:40] The Real Big Win Over next 12 years sold $16.1 million worth of that course All because of one conversation: "Why don't you come down and speak?" Brought energy, joyfulness, willingness to share with generosity When you're invited, say yes   KEY QUOTES "I made the ask that changed my life. That gentleman brought me in and let me watch his class. I asked if he would apprentice me, and he did." - Dia Bondi "The most compelling communicators make the choice to be big in big moments. And that's never about being a showboat." - Dia Bondi CONNECT WITH DIA BONDI 

In today's episode, I'm sitting down with one of my clients and friends, Katie, to have an honest, real conversation about food, midlife, menopause, mindset, and what it actually takes to create lasting change.-------------------If you're listening in real time, make sure to sign up for my Free Webinar "Your Year of Change" HERE.-------------------Katie had been listening to this podcast for a long time before we worked together. She understood the concepts intellectually. She wanted things to change. But like so many women, she found herself stuck in the cycle of trying hard, tightening down, losing control, and then blaming herself.In this episode, we talk about what finally shifted.Katie shares what it felt like to go from feeling helpless around food to feeling calm, grounded, and in control—without dieting, restriction, or perfection. We talk openly about menopause, inflammation, exercise no longer “working” the way it used to, and the cultural story that midlife weight gain is inevitable.We also dive into something bigger than weight loss.Katie explains how learning to manage her thoughts—not just her food—changed how she shows up with her kids, her husband, her work, and even her aging parents. One of my favorite moments in this conversation is when she shares how the mindset tools we use helped her respond differently to everyday stress instead of numbing out with food.We also have an honest conversation about using GLP-1 medications as a tool. Katie shares why she chose to use them, the stigma she felt, and why mindset work is still essential if you want the results to last—whether you're on medication or not.If you've ever:Felt like you should be able to do this by nowWondered why what worked in your 30s and 40s no longer worksFelt stuck consuming information but not creating real changeOr worried that focusing on food might negatively impact your kids…this episode is for you.Katie's story is a reminder that you're not broken—and that real freedom around food is possible at any age when you stop relying on willpower and start changing how you think.You are invited to my FREE Webinar Your Year of Change....click HERE to sign up.We start January 21st!

Motivation is great to get you going, but sometimes you need something more practical. What if I could give you a three-letter word that could change everything this year? Over the holidays, my toilet broke, my fireplace died, my wife's car battery drained, and the church audio system crashed right before service. Every single one had to be fixed. That's what 2026 is about. We're going to wire up your dreams and motivation, but mostly we're going to fix what's broken. Life meets us head-on, and sometimes you just need to get it done. Featured Story Two and a half minutes before church service, I'm running audio for 300 people. The computers went bad. The monitors went out. The audio started glitching. The band's coming on stage, everyone's ready to go, and we're looking at each other like, what are we going to do? Ten seconds to go and it wasn't working. But I only had one thing I had to do: fix it. Because when 300 people are waiting for an inspirational service to start, it has to work. Same with the toilet, the fireplace, and the car battery. Sometimes life isn't about more motivation. It's about meeting problems head-on and fixing what's broken so you can move forward. Important Points When your air conditioning goes out in August Florida, motivation won't cool you down. It has to be fixed now. Clients come to me for dreams and passion, but they run out of money or runway. We've got to fix that problem first. Years ago, my theme song started with "when life gets in the way." That's exactly where we are right now in 2026. Memorable Quotes "If it's broke, you've got to fix it. That's why people tell me life coaches say you're not broken. Something is." "Life is about meeting life right where it meets you. Head on moments and fix what's broken, get it done, move on." "We're going to take your aspiration and dreams, wire that up, and fix stuff so you can move on with a peaceful base." Scott's Three-Step Approach Identify what's actually broken in your life that's keeping you from moving forward and getting what you want right now. Stop waiting for motivation to fix it and start treating it like a practical problem that needs solving today. Get it done, create that peaceful base you need, then move on to all the dreams and aspirations you're really after.

In this week's episode I'm joined by Angela Rixon, founder of The Centre for Meaningful Work and author of Meaning Over Purpose to explore what meaningful work really is, why so many of us lack it, and how both individuals and leaders can create more meaning at work day-to-day.

We talk about: • What meaning is and how it differs from purpose • The five pillars of meaningful work • Practical ways to create more meaning in your current role • How leaders can build meaning within their teams • Why meaning boosts engagement—and how it can sometimes lead to burnout • A powerful real-life example of how autonomy transformed performance This is Influence & Impact for Leaders, the podcast that helps leaders like you increase your impact and build a happy and high performing team.

In this episode of the Grow A Small Business Podcast, host Troy Trewin interviews Natalee Leach, founder of The Payroll Collective, shares her journey from a corporate payroll career to building a fast-growing consultancy on track for $3M in revenue. She breaks down how values-driven leadership, people-first culture, and client retention fueled rapid growth. Natalee also opens up about managing fast scaling, hiring at the right time, and the mental strain of entrepreneurship. She explains why foundations, systems, and the right team matter more than aggressive sales. A candid conversation on sustainable growth, leadership, and building a business with purpose. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. 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 Natalee Leach, the hardest thing in growing a small business is the speed of growth. Growing too fast can feel scary and overwhelming, especially with the fear that "what goes up must come down." Managing rapid scaling while keeping the business stable, sustainable, and healthy is the real challenge. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Natalee Leach's favorite business book is The Diary of a CEO, which has helped her the most by offering honest, relatable insights into leadership, mindset, and personal growth, while also providing validation and practical ideas that she can apply to building and leading a successful business. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Natalee Leach recommends a few great podcasts and online resources to help grow a small business, including The Diary of a CEO for mindset and leadership insights, How I Built This for real founder stories, and Smart Passive Income for practical business strategy. She also points to MasterClass, Coursera, and LinkedIn Learning as solid hubs to level up skills in marketing, leadership, and scaling operations — all great for small business growth. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Natalee Leach often points to Notion as one of her go-to tools for growing a small business — it's great for organizing workflows, project plans, SOPs, content calendars, client onboarding, and team collaboration all in one place. She also recommends Slack for team communication, Asana or Trello for task management, and Stripe/QuickBooks for streamlined billing and finances. These tools help keep operations smooth, teams aligned, and growth intentional. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? According to Natalee Leach, one advice she would give herself is to book a Pilates session or schedule time for yourself in your diary from day one because the business will run over you if you do not. She emphasizes that setting these boundaries immediately is crucial for maintaining a lifestyle that offers longevity rather than constant exhaustion. This self-care allows for quality time with family and friends, ensuring you are not too tired to actually enjoy life outside of work. By prioritizing your own physical and mental strength early on, you can better power through the different phases of business growth. Ultimately, she views scheduling this personal time as a paramount habit that business owners must develop to prevent being derailed by the mental strain of leadership.

In today's Ask Allison, we're talking about how to identify your ideal client—and why, for many therapists, that client often looks a lot like a past version of themselves. We'll explore why you don't need complicated market research or perfect niche language to get clear, and how reflecting on your own lived experience can actually lead to stronger clinical work and more aligned referrals. We'll cover how to notice which clients energize you, why shared experience can be a clinical and marketing advantage, and how this clarity helps you speak directly to the people you're best equipped to help. If defining your ideal client has felt overwhelming, performative, or forced, this episode will help you simplify the process and build a practice that feels authentic, sustainable, and genuinely connected.

Welcome back to How to Get Ahead with Millennial Life Coaches (MLC)! Host Lorna Taylor sits down with marketing + sales expert Hailey Rowe to recap big wins from 2025 and break down what's working in marketing right now for coaches and online service providers.In this episode, Hailey shares:Why Threads is surprisingly powerful for fast networking and visibilityWhy LinkedIn still wins for booking calls + collaborationsHow to repurpose content (webinars → podcasts → posts) without feeling repetitiveA practical way to never run out of content ideas (content pillars + AI prompts)The honest truth about “passive income” and what actually scales in coaching

In this Leadership Takeover Session, Jack Choppin – employee number one at GoProposal (now GoProposal by Sage) and long-time head of Client Success – explains how bookkeepers can build confident teams, challenge clients on pricing and create “shock and awe” experiences that drive loyalty and growth. For UK bookkeepers bringing in their first team member, or trying to get braver with fees, this is a practical look at what real client success and culture actually feel like day to day. Download GoProposal's guide for running impactful client meetings: https://goproposal.com/blog/how-to-keep-your-client-at-the-heart-of-every-meeting-with-the-gloss-method/?UTM_Source=6fb Jack shares how he joined GoProposal on trust in the people before he fully understood the mission, what it was like to be 50% of the company's salary bill as the first hire, and how that level of transparency built belief and ownership. He talks about the famous “shock and awe” pack, why they poured huge energy into free trials, and how unscalable, high-touch onboarding helped them spot the right customers and turn them into raving fans long before they put card details in. You'll hear how GoProposal built a culture of caring deeply and challenging directly: sending physical packs, pre-branding apps, and offering training calls that didn't just show people where to click, but helped them feel ready to sit in front of a client and say, “Your price needs to go up.” Jack explains why true client success means challenging beliefs, not just being nice, and why the real measure of success isn't “do you understand the software?” but “are you willing to have that pricing conversation?” Jack also talks about the emotional side of building a business from the inside. He describes working with founder James Ashford, carrying the pressure of personal goals (like helping Becky leave her job), and learning not to become an “accidental diminisher” who has all the answers. Instead, he shows how asking team members to bring problems with proposed solutions builds confidence, autonomy and genuine leadership capability – the same mindset bookkeepers can use with both staff and clients. For practice owners, Jack shares what he learned as GoProposal grew and then moved through acquisition into Sage: how openness around targets builds buy-in rather than fear, where to draw the line between healthy pressure and stress, and how small firms can use their size as an advantage by involving team members closely in the journey. He also talks honestly about self-doubt, fear of getting it wrong, and how focusing on intent rather than outcome helps him act even when confidence feels shaky. This is essential viewing for bookkeepers who want to move beyond “just doing the work” and build a business where clients, team and founder are all truly invested in the same mission. ----------------------------------------------- About us We're Jo and Zoe and we help bookkeepers find clients, make more money and build profitable businesses they love.

She was exhausted, overthinking everything, and stuck in that horrible in-between phase where you know you want more… but you're scared to fully commit.Fast forward three months:She's left her jobShe's gained over 100 new clientsHer income has tripledAnd most importantly, she's clear and confident in her business for the first timeBut what I love most about this conversation isn't the numbers.It's the honesty.We talk about the fear of leaving “safe” income.That feeling of being busy but not really moving forward.How comfort can quietly cap your growth.And how having the right support and structure changes everything.Georgia shares exactly what clicked for her, what she stopped doing, and why going all-in was the turning point.If you're currently:– juggling a job and your business– feeling burnt out but scared to let go– or knowing deep down that you're capable of morePlease go and listen to this replay. You don't need to rush anything.You don't need to make a big decision today.But you do deserve clarity.

⚠️ Listener WarningThis episode includes a word some people don't like — but in construction, that word exists for a reason. If it's not for you, feel free to skip this one.For everyone else… this is important.Today I'm sharing a sampler of the intro and first chapter of the book My Client Is A C_nt — the most honest book written about what actually goes on in the construction industry.This isn't shock for the sake of it.It's truth.The book dives into the realities tradespeople live every day but rarely talk about openly:bad clients, non-payment, shifting expectations, tone in emails and texts, burnout, pressure, and the moments where you only realize what you should've done after the damage is already done.This book exists so you don't have to learn everything the hard way.Most tradespeople don't buy books — I get it.That's why the audio version matters. Listen on the drive to the jobsite, during the day, or on the way home after a long one. It's built for real life, not a desk.

Client experience must be provided in the most convenient and fulfilling way, not only for clients themselves but also for the business owner. For our New Year episode, Michelle Weinstein sits down with QuickBooks wizard Debra Kilsheimer, who shares how they created a Disney-like customer service. She explains how she treats accountants and bookkeepers with utmost respect and closeness as she helps turn their goals into reality. Debra also talks about achieving millions in revenue even with just a "two-and-a-half" team and how she set prices for her subscriptions while considering the real-life circumstances of her clients.

Most business owners think a book is about selling copies. Henry DeVries knows better.In this episode, Henry DeVries, publisher of Indie Books International, host of Agency Rainmaker TV, and ghostwriter/editor of more than 200 business books, including a McGraw-Hill international bestseller, breaks down how a book can become one of the most powerful tools for attracting ideal clients.Henry shares the simple, repeatable framework he teaches agency owners and entrepreneurs to use their book as a positioning asset—not a commodity. We explore how the right book establishes instant credibility, opens doors to paid speaking opportunities, and generates a steady flow of inbound leads without requiring prospecting.If you've ever thought about writing a book—or already have one but aren't seeing results, this conversation will change how you think about authorship, authority, and growth.

In this episode of Head, Heart, and Boots, Brandon and I dig into one of the most overlooked drivers of growth in service businesses: the client experience. Sparked by a frustrating real-world story, we unpack how even well-intentioned teams can slowly erode trust through poor communication, missed expectations, and a lack of follow-through - and why those failures compound over time. We talk candidly about how competition in restoration and home services is changing, why today's customers are more informed and more skeptical than ever, and how growth, PE-backed operators, and higher deductibles are raising the bar for professionalism across the industry. From engineering a client experience instead of relying on heroics, to setting expectations early, owning the hard parts of the process, and designing workflows that protect trust, this episode is a practical reminder that growth doesn't come from doing more work - it comes from doing the work better. If you're a business owner or leader trying to scale without sacrificing reputation, referrals, or sanity, this conversation is a must-listen. Hope you enjoy. Chris Why You Should Listen [00:02:45] How a single bad customer experience exposed the quiet ways service quality erodes - even inside well-run companies [00:06:09] Why growth, higher deductibles, and more sophisticated competitors are forcing service businesses to rethink how they win and retain clients [00:09:45] How poor communication and unmanaged expectations turn customers into project managers - and destroy trust in the process [00:18:08] Why engineering a client experience beats relying on individual heroics — and how workflows protect both customers and teams [00:29:27] How setting expectations early, telling clients the hard truths, and embracing friction can actually become your biggest competitive advantage Did you know... Only 30% of businesses listed for sale actually find a buyer? Even more striking, just 10% of those sell for the price their owners anticipated or higher, meaning only 3% of all business owners achieve their desired sale price. By focusing on understanding and enhancing your enterprise value, you can significantly boost your chances of joining that successful 3%.

neuroscientist, former CMO, and author of Make Me Great, for an engaging conversation that redefines productivity from the inside out. Thomas shares his unconventional journey from artificial intelligence and neuroscience into marketing, leadership, and ethical persuasion, revealing how his early work in neuromarketing delivered results but ultimately felt incomplete without a human-centered approach. At the heart of the conversation is one powerful insight: when someone is making a decision, their brain is silently asking, "Make me great." Thomas explains how primal, subconscious forces drive our choices long before logic kicks in, and why people rationalize decisions only after they've already been made. He breaks down concepts like silent listening, subconscious frustration, and why talking about features, products, or credentials too early actually pushes people away. You'll also hear memorable real-world examples showing how simply paying attention, asking better questions, and listening without interruption can instantly change outcomes in business and in everyday life. The discussion expands into purpose, personal "why," and how building tribes around shared values accelerates productivity while reducing wasted effort. This episode is a powerful reminder that productivity isn't just about systems and structure. It's about empathy, intention, and making others feel seen, heard, and valued.

Monty L. Cain is the owner and managing attorney at Cain Law Injury Attorneys, based in Oklahoma City. With nearly 30 years of trial experience, he specializes in personal injury litigation, with a focus on traumatic brain injury (TBI) and trucking accidents, and has recovered over $100 million in verdicts and settlements for clients. Monty is widely recognized for his appellate win in Fox v. Mize, which expanded negligent-entrustment claims against unsafe commercial carriers—reshaping how trucking cases are tried in Oklahoma and beyond. In this episode, Monty shares how he treats law like customer service, retooling intake, and training his team to spot mild TBI patterns; he uncovered value hiding in plain sight. On trucking files, he goes past the driver to expose carrier‑level failures—and he helped cement the right to bring those claims in Oklahoma courts. The result: more signed cases, stronger case value, and referrals that snowball.
