Podcasts about clientswhy

You want to start a podcast to grow your business, but committing to a weekly podcast right now is not realistic with everything on your plate.

What does it look like to build a business that works with your chronic illness instead of against it? This conversation with Gwendolyn Young will challenge everything you think you know about business design and capacity.Gwendolyn Young is the founder of Your Virtual Admin Expert, a multi-six figure agency that provides administrative solutions for business owners. After 15 years of advising corporate executives, she made the bold decision to leave and start her own company so she could manage her lupus diagnosis while still doing meaningful work. Her approach to building around capacity rather than market demands has created both sustainability and significant profit.In this episode, we cover:How cultural expectations as women of color make it harder to acknowledge capacity limits in businessWhy building your business around your needs isn't selfish — it's strategicThe specific systems Gwendolyn put in place to protect her energy while scaling her agencyHow to transition from being the doer to being the CEO without losing your sense of identityWhat it really means to set non-negotiable boundaries with clientsWhy chronic illness can actually be a teacher in learning to design better business systemsThe mindset work required to trust your team and delegate effectivelyThis episode is for you if:You're trying to build or scale a business while managing chronic illnessYou feel like standard business advice doesn't account for your realityYou're the doer in your business and struggle to delegate or step backYou want to create more sustainable systems that don't require your constant presenceYou're a woman of color navigating the intersection of health challenges and entrepreneurship

Most clinicians think of slow-paced breathing when they think of heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback. But what if breathing isn't always the best tool?In this episode, Saul Rosenthal talks with Dr. Fred Shaffer delving deeper into the tips for HRV training he describes in his NRBS webinar. Fred explains how slow-paced muscle contraction can improve HRV, discusses the situations in which it may be helpful, and shares some surprising findings from his laboratory. The conversation also explores broader questions about HRV training, including what we know, and still need to learn, about resonance frequency, why some clients struggle with paced breathing, and how clinicians can avoid becoming overly focused on physiological metrics.Along the way, Fred offers a reminder that applies far beyond HRV training: use HRV as a compass, not a scoreboard.Topics include:Slow-paced muscle contraction as an alternative to slow breathingWhen breathing-based HRV training may not be appropriateResonance frequency and the unanswered questions in HRV scienceCommon challenges in HRV biofeedback trainingMeasuring outcomes that matter to clientsWhy clinicians should master the skills they teachDr. Fred Shaffer is Professor Emeritus of Psychology at Truman State University, former president of the Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA), and one of the field's leading educators in biofeedback and psychophysiology.Contact us at healthybrain@nrbs.org.Subscribe here or wherever you get your podcasts.Watch the video versions of our podcasts and Subscribe there as well!This podcast is produced by the Northeast Region Biofeedback Society.

We're breaking down the mindset shift that will bring you the confidence and momentum to start making sales, and why waiting until everything is “perfect” is actually keeping you stuck.I'm covering:Why making your first $1 matters more than months of planning, researching, or buildingThe hidden fear behind selling (and why asking for money feels so vulnerable)How confidence in business comes from proof, not validationThe costly mistake I made spending 6 months building a course before getting clientsWhy networking, word of mouth, and scrappy action still work better than overthinkingHow to create momentum fast whether you're brand new or already establishedThe goal of the $1 Challenge isn't the dollar - it's the proof. Proof that people will pay you. Proof that you can create money on demand.

In this episode of the Wills & Estates Transmission Podcast with de Groots, Tony Skinner speaks with Maree Harris about elder abuse and the important role solicitors can play in identifying warning signs, protecting vulnerable clients, and ensuring estate planning instructions are genuinely coming from the client.Elder abuse is a growing concern, especially as Australia's population ages and more families deal with estate planning, powers of attorney, capacity and intergenerational wealth.Maree explains what elder abuse is, the different forms it can take, and why psychological, emotional and financial abuse are often the most common. She also discusses the importance of meeting elderly clients privately, taking instructions directly from the client, assessing capacity properly, and knowing when warning signs may require further action.If you suspect elder abuse, you can contact the NSW Ageing and Disability Abuse Helpline on 1800 628 221.What elder abuse means under the World Health Organization definitionThe importance of a relationship of trustCommon forms of elder abuse, including emotional, psychological, financial, physical, sexual abuse and neglectWarning signs solicitors should look for when advising elderly clientsWhy solicitors should meet elderly clients alone when taking instructionsHow financial abuse can occur through bank accounts or powers of attorneyThe importance of checking whether an attorney has authority to make gifts or transfer fundsCapacity assessments and why capacity depends on the decision being madeThe risks of family members giving instructions on behalf of an older personWhy elderly people may be reluctant to speak upThe role of education around wills, powers of attorney and enduring guardianshipWhat to do if elder abuse is suspectedThe NSW Ageing and Disability Abuse HelplineNSW Ageing and Disability Abuse Helpline1800 628 221

What do you do when a client loves every option… but still won't make a decision?In this episode of the Interior Design Business Podcast, I'm breaking down how to manage clients who struggle with decision-making and why unresolved decisions can completely derail a design project.When clients delay decisions, it creates confusion, slows contractors down, impacts timelines, increases your unpaid hours, and often weakens the overall design outcome. But the truth is, many clients aren't intentionally difficult, they simply lack confidence and need more structure, guidance, and clarity throughout the process.In this episode, I share six practical strategies to help clients move through decisions with more confidence while keeping your projects organized, on schedule, and beautifully cohesive.You'll learn how to reduce overwhelm, create better specification meetings, structure your agreements to support progress, and guide clients through the emotional side of decision-making without becoming frustrated or losing control of the project.If you've ever had a client say “I need to think about it” over and over again, this episode will help you lead the process more effectively and protect both your time and your design.In this episode, we cover:Why some clients struggle to make decisionsHow open-ended decisions delay projectsWhy unresolved selections hurt the overall designThe impact delayed decisions have on contractors and timelinesHow too many options overwhelm clientsWhy presenting one best option works better than fiveHow to use anchor selections to guide the design directionWhy inspiration photos help reinforce decisionsThe importance of meeting agendasHow preparing clients before meetings improves outcomesBuilding deadlines into your letter of agreementHow written agreements create accountabilityWhy clients need design education throughout the processExplaining the emotional feel behind design choicesHow to build confidence in hesitant clientsWhy reinforcing wins helps clients decide fasterThe importance of holding boundaries during selectionsWhy you should never allow decisions to carry into the next meetingHow stronger leadership creates smoother projectsShow notes are available at interiordesignbusinessacademy.comFollow us on Facebook: facebook.com/InteriorDesignBusinessAcademyFollow us on Instagram: instagram.com/interiordesignbusinessacademy

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HERETyson Mutrux uses a real-world example from a local gym to explore how law firms can build stronger communities around their clients. The episode looks at why great service alone is not always enough, how clients form deeper connections with businesses, and what law firm owners can do to create more trust, belonging, and loyalty.For lawyers, the key question is not just whether the firm is doing good work. It is whether clients can see, feel, and understand the value being created for them. Tyson talks through practical ways to demonstrate value, communicate better during a case, share more relatable stories, and create touchpoints that help clients feel connected instead of forgotten.Listen for:Why “doing a good job” may not be enough to build trustHow to show clients the work happening behind the scenesThe difference between satisfied clients and connected clientsWhy law firms should compete on identity, not just price or outcomesHow intentional touchpoints can help create communityHighlights:00:00 - What a gym taught Tyson about community03:20 - Why good work alone is not enough04:05 - Demonstrating value to clients05:40 - Selling belonging instead of services07:35 - Competing on identity09:45 - Engineering community on purpose11:00 - Turning clients into advocatesFollow Maximum Lawyer for more conversations on building a stronger, more connected, and more intentional law firm.Resources:Join the Guild MembershipSubscribe to the Maximum Lawyer Youtube ChannelFollow us on InstagramJoin the Facebook GroupFollow the Facebook PageFollow us on LinkedIn

In this episode of Million Dollar Flip Flops, Rodric breaks down one of the most important shifts a builder can make: moving from being a flashlight to becoming a lighthouse.The big idea is simple, but powerful:The goal is not to be known by more people.The goal is to become the obvious choice for the right people.Rodric explains why so many builders stay stuck in “available and generic” positioning — and why that creates the flashlight tax:generic marketingprice-sensitive leadswasted estimatestire-kickersslow growthconstant motion with no real tractionInstead, he lays out a framework for becoming the builder people already know they want to call.This episode walks through:Why specialization creates authority and premium pricingWhy the market rewards clarity, focus, and consistencyHow the lighthouse model works in real lifeA real-world builder example that increased average project size and close rate by narrowing his nicheA practical exercise to uncover your sweet spot using the profitable / enjoyable / desired auditHow positioning changes referrals, marketing, pricing power, and client conversationsRodric also challenges builders to plant a flag, commit to it for 12 months, and stop saying yes to projects that pull them away from their future.This is a wake-up call for any builder who is doing good work but still feels like they're chasing the market instead of leading it.

✨ "The healing process is there in service of your life, not the other way around. Do the healing in order to live." – Kira Julius Kira Julius is a German-Danish horse trainer and equine assisted practitioner whose career has taken her from working young horses in Tanzania at 16, to eight years alongside Australian warmblood specialist Will Rogers — first in the Netherlands, then Germany — to therapeutic work with autistic children and families across Germany, Denmark, Ireland, and the UK. She now runs her own practice through horserealms.com, working with horses, families, and individuals at the intersection of horsemanship and resilience.What makes Kira's perspective unusual is that she has lived the subject she now teaches. A lifelong relationship with anxiety and fear around horses, a family crisis at 18 when her father suffered a stroke that pulled her into an early adult role, and years inside the hyper-demanding world of sport horse training — including a period where her own anxiety became so acute she could barely ride — all of it has shaped a practitioner who speaks from earned experience, not theory.In this conversation, Rupert and Kira go deep on what resilience actually means — for horses, for humans, and for the practitioners who work with both. They move through the groundwork methodology Kira developed starting sensitive warmbloods, the specific exercises that release tension and build connection, and how those same principles apply when working with autistic children. They explore why always being calm may be the wrong goal, how to move through fear rather than wait for it to pass, and why the trauma conversation risks tipping into a place that keeps people stuck. This is a wide-ranging, experience-backed conversation that will resonate with anyone who works with horses, with neurodivergent individuals, or with their own inner life.If you want to support the show, you can do so at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/LongRideHome

PAID TO BE A CYCLE BREAKER - Get Your Ticket Here https://www.skool.com/breadwinner-energy-club-7485 The coaching industry is a multi-billion dollar machine and it was not built for you.The frameworks are white. The pricing psychology is white. The launch models are white. And the “manifesting”? Stripped from traditions that white women repackaged and sold back to you without credit, context, or medicine.In this episode of the Breadwinner Energy® Podcast, I'm breaking down what it actually looks like to decolonize your business not as a concept, but as a daily practice. I'm naming the five colonial systems that have been passed down through your family line and showing up in your business right now: silence and obedience, hustle culture, disconnection from intuition, over-giving, and limited access to wealth and power.Then I'm giving you five things you can decolonize in your business today your offer structure, your pricing, your sales process, your content, and your definition of success.If you're a woman of color building a healing based business and something has always felt off about the strategies you've been taught — it's because they were never made for someone like you. This episode is your permission slip to burn the map and build the road.This episode covers:What decolonization actually means (and what it doesn't)The 5 colonial systems still running your life and businessHow patriarchal and colonial frameworks show up in pricing, offers, sales, and contentWhy hustle culture is a colonial inheritance, not a work ethicHow to stop over-delivering, over-explaining, and doing emotional labor for clientsWhy reclaimed wealth is more than money — it's time, health, peace, and legacyHow to build from YOUR roots instead of someone else's template1. Silence and ObedienceColonial systems rewarded women especially women of color for being quiet, compliant, and self-sacrificing. In business, this shows up as diluting your messaging, softening your truth, and making yourself palatable for audiences that were never yours to serve.2. Hustle CultureHustle, struggle, and sacrifice have been glorified for generations. it's a colonial inheritance. Decolonizing your business means allowing yourself to rest, to build wealth in a way that feels good, and to stop treating burnout as proof that you're doing it right.3. Disconnection from Intuition and Cultural RootsSystems like organized religion and Western education were designed to make women distrust their own inner knowing. Your intuition, your cultural wisdom, your ancestral practices — these are not “woo.” They are your competitive advantage and the foundation of your medicine.4. Over-GivingIf you're over-delivering, over-explaining, and doing emotional labor for your clients — that's not leadership. That's codependency. Decolonizing your business means teaching your clients to be empowered, not dependent. It means charging for your energy, not just your time.5. Limited Access to Wealth and PowerWomen of color have been historically excluded from wealth, ownership, and leadership. Decolonizing your business means rewriting your relationship with money, power, and leadership — and building wealth from a place of truth rather than trauma.Then I give you 5 things to decolonize right now: your offer structure, your pricing model, your sales process, your content strategy, and your definition of success.

What happens when technology meets creativity in one of the most detail-driven industries on the planet? In this episode, I sit down with Mike Smalls, co-founder of BLOOM Vision, to explore how AI is revolutionizing not just business—but artistry, efficiency, and the way ideas come to life.This conversation started as a surprise—I brought Mike into the studio without much runway. What followed was an eye-opening, deeply human conversation that flowed from tactical innovation to life's biggest questions. We talked about AI, problem-solving, legacy, and even the reality of death—and somehow landed it all back into how we build things that truly matter.At the center of it all is BLOOM Vision—a game-changing platform designed specifically for wedding florists and event planners. Imagine being able to create photo-realistic floral mockups in minutes instead of hours… refining designs on the fly… and presenting your vision to clients with total confidence. That's what BLOOM Vision delivers.And here's the real kicker—florists using BLOOM Vision are booking 20% more weddings. That's not just a tool… that's transformation.Mike breaks down how intentional systems, smart use of AI, and clear thinking can take something incredibly complex—like custom floral design—and make it simple, scalable, and wildly effective.What stood out most? Mike doesn't just build technology—he builds clarity. And in a world that's only getting faster and noisier, that might be the ultimate advantage.In this episode, we cover:How AI is transforming creative industries like floral designTurning hours of work into minutes with the right toolsThe power of visual storytelling in closing more clientsWhy systems and simplicity outperform hustle and chaosA real conversation about life, death, and building a legacyHow innovation creates both efficiency and opportunity

Your client falls off the plan. You tweak the plan. They fall off again. In this episode, Dr. Kasey Jo Orvidas breaks down why changing the plan isn't fixing the problem, and what's actually going on underneath it: psychological flexibility. Research consistently links it to better outcomes in weight loss, exercise adherence, and emotional regulation, and it's one of the most overlooked skills in coaching. In this episode, she covers:What psychological flexibility actually is (and what it's not)The research linking psychological flexibility to better client outcomesThe six core processes from the Acceptance Commitment Therapy model and how to apply each one in coachingThe specific language patterns that signal a client is psychologically inflexible, including "just tell me what to do," "if I can't do it perfectly why bother," and "I'll start over Monday"How to reinforce flexible behavior when it's already showing up in your clientsWhy reconnecting clients to their values is what makes discomfort meaningful instead of just hard If you've ever had a client who looked motivated, said all the right things, and still couldn't follow through, this episode is for you. Connect with me on Instagram! Grab 5 Free Lessons in Mindset and Behavior Change Coaching [HMCC WAITLIST]LEAVE A REVIEW, WIN A WORKSHOP!

My Q1 2026 Business Debrief: Revenue, Growth, and What's Actually WorkingIf your revenue feels inconsistent or you're questioning what's actually working in your business, this episode is going to hit home. In this episode of The Real Truth About Business podcast, I'm pulling back the curtain on my Q1 2026 business debrief. I'm walking you through the real numbers, the decisions, and the strategy behind what's driving sustainable revenue growth right now. This is for service-based entrepreneurs who are stuck in a revenue plateau and need to start making smarter, data-driven decisions in their business strategy.I'm sharing what actually worked, what didn't, and how I'm thinking about growth moving forward. Because after 9 years of experience, I can tell you this: surface-level metrics will keep you stuck. You need to go deeper. This episode will show you how to evaluate your pricing strategy, lead generation, and sales process so you can build a business that's predictable, scalable, and actually aligned with where you want to go.What You'll Learn:How to analyze your business data beyond surface-level revenue numbersWhat consistent revenue really looks like in a service-based businessHow to identify which lead generation strategies are actually driving clientsWhy in-person events can dramatically improve your sales process and ROIHow to evaluate offers that aren't converting and adjust your pricing strategyWhat to track in your business to break through a revenue plateauEpisode Highlights:[00:00] Introduction: Behind-the-scenes Q1 2026 business debrief[05:30] Revenue breakdown and why consistency matters more than spikes[12:45] Podcast growth, SEO strategy, and lead generation wins[20:10] New client acquisition and where leads are actually coming from[28:30] In-person event ROI and sales conversion insights[36:50] Offer performance, cancellations, and strategic pivots[45:00] Investments, lessons learned, and CEO decision-making[52:30] Wrap-up and how to run your own business debriefKey Takeaways:Consistency Over Spikes Is the Real GoalHere's what I see constantly: business owners chasing high revenue months instead of building consistency. My revenue was down about 20% compared to last year, but my profit margin held steady at 50%. More importantly, my revenue became predictable. That's what actually creates sustainable business growth.When you're building a service-based business, consistency gives you a baseline. And once you have a baseline, growth becomes a strategic decision instead of a gamble. This is a direct reflection of the Focused Visionary Framework, specifically your pipeline. Predictable revenue comes from a stable pipeline, not random cash injections.The Data You're Avoiding Has the AnswersAfter 9 years, I can confidently say this: the answers you want are in the data you're not looking at. It's easy to stop at revenue. But when I dug deeper, I saw why numbers shifted. Payment structures, past promotions, and one-time cash injections all impacted perception.When you actually analyze your business strategy across pricing, pipeline, and sales, you stop reacting emotionally and start making strategic decisions. That's how you break out of a revenue plateau.What's Actually Driving Clients Right NowThe biggest insight? Conversations convert. Every single client came from referrals, networking, in-person events, or the podcast. Not passive content alone. Not random marketing tactics.In-person events alone produced a 931% ROI. That's not a small win. That tells me exactly where to double down. If your lead generation isn't converting, look at how close you are to real conversations. Your sales process improves dramatically when trust is built faster.Strategy Requires Ownership and AdjustmentsNot everything worked. Some offers didn't sell. Some investments weren't aligned. That's part of being in CEO mindset. I take full responsibility for those decisions and use them to refine my strategy.This is where most service-based entrepreneurs get stuck. They either ignore what's not working or overcorrect emotionally. Instead, I look at the data, adjust the offer, refine positioning, and keep moving forward. That's how real business growth happens.Resources MentionedBook a CEO Strategy Call Learn more about The Missing Piece IntensiveLearn more about The Focused Visionary AcceleratorJoin Back Pocket InsightsDownload the FREE Lead and Conversion TrackerSubscribe to the Sunday Morning Brew NewsletterAbout the Host:Michelle DeNio is a business strategist based in Sarasota, Florida, specializing in helping service-based entrepreneurs break through revenue plateaus using her Focused Visionary Framework.

Inside Saatchi & Saatchi. Sit down with the CEO of one of the most iconic agencies in advertising, a name that carries both weight and expectation, to understand how CEO Claire Hollands leads for today.This is a conversation about ambition. Not in the abstract, but in how it shows up in the work, in the culture, and in the relationship between agencies and clients.We get into how Saatchi & Saatchi is positioning itself around growth, why creativity still holds commercial power (even if the industry occasionally forgets it), and how agencies are rethinking their value, from billable hours to business outcomes.There's also a clear view on where things are shifting: the role of AI, the reality of pitching, and why agencies need to be more deliberate about the clients they choose.Running through all of it is leadership, how you make decisions without perfect information, how you build a culture of high challenge and high support, and how you balance legacy with the need to move forward.What you'll learn:Why agencies need to reposition themselves around growth, not outputsHow creativity still drives commercial performance and where it gets undervaluedWhat actually builds trust between agencies and clientsWhy most pitch processes are flawed and what better looks likeHow to think about agency value, pricing, and remunerationThe difference between growth brands and transformation brands and why it mattersWhat “high challenge, high support” looks like in practiceHow great leaders make decisions without having all the answersWhat AI is changing in agencies and what it isn'tWhy hiring for attitude and curiosity matters more than experienceTimestamps00:03:00 – Finding your people in the industry00:06:00 – Why account management sits at the centre of the agency00:07:00 – Building trust in client relationships00:12:00 – How decisions are really made at senior level00:15:00 – Culture, values, and collective ambition00:19:00 – High challenge, high support: what it means in practice00:23:00 – Managing pressure across career and family00:25:30 – Where the agency world is heading00:29:30 – The evolving agency model00:32:00 – The role and reality of pitching00:33:30 – What needs to change in pitch processes00:37:30 – Hiring for attitude, not just skill00:39:00 – What excites Claire about what's nextAbout the podcastThat's What I Call Marketing is a podcast for marketers who care about how brands grow, how advertising works, and how the industry is evolving through conversations with the people shaping it.

In this deeply personal and wide‑ranging episode of Equine Assisted World, Rupert Isaacson speaks with longtime colleague and friend Karla Brahms of Wellenreiter in the Odenwald, Germany — a region steeped in myth, forest, and living horse culture.What begins as a conversation about equine‑assisted practice unfolds into an intimate exploration of grief, love, resilience, and the sacred role horses play in helping humans navigate life's darkest passages.Karla shares her evolution from decades of forest‑based therapeutic riding with children into her current work integrating NIG (Neuro‑Imaginative Gestalt) constellation methods with horses. Through spontaneous drawing, embodied awareness, and equine presence, she helps clients access inner wisdom beyond intellectual processing.The conversation then turns to the death of her husband, musician Jan, and the profound grief that followed. Karla speaks openly about ritual, laying out the body at home, identity loss, and how horses — through presence, warmth, and simple being — helped her remain anchored in the present.This episode explores what modern culture has lost around death and ceremony — and how horses may help us reclaim a more honest, embodied relationship with grief.If you want to support the show, you can do so at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/LongRideHome

After years in sales leadership, he launched a recruiting firm from scratch and aggressively scaled it through niche credibility, relentless outreach, and disciplined execution. 5.

We all want quality leads in our pipeline. But these days, a lot of experts tell me they're having trouble getting leads. The thing is, I don't think that's actually their problem. All the visibility in the world won't help you if your real issue lies somewhere else. In this episode, I break down one of the biggest (and most expensive) mistakes I see smart, talented experts making: chasing more leads when the real issue is that their message, offer, or positioning just isn't clear enough to convert the people they're already talking to.Tune into this episode to hear:How lack of specificity about your audience, your process, and your pricing is actually losing you clientsWhy “what's your budget?” is one of the worst questions you can askHow fear budgets actually workAnd how a simple, clear lead product can flip the entire dynamic with clientsResources:Get on the Early Readers List of my new bookNo BS Clients LabNo BS Agencies MasteryThe Price to Freedom Calculator™No BS Agency Owners Free Facebook GroupStart reading the first chapter of my bookPiasilva.com
