What would change in your business if you treated time as your most valuable commodity and priced every hour accordingly? In this episode of the Real Estate Excellence Podcast, Tracy Hayes sits down with luxury agent and team leader Gail DeMarco. Gail drops the polite filter and lays out how she built a near billion in lifetime sales by staying lean, obsessing over data, and designing a brand that shows up everywhere. From four open houses every weekend to hyper-focused farming and YouTube consistency, she explains exactly how she creates momentum in new markets and turns listings into market share. The conversation digs into hiring for coachability, running a tight listing operation, delegating fast, and engineering deals with assumable loans and lender-powered rate buydowns. It is an unvarnished masterclass on standards, time discipline, and creative structure in a tough market, capped with faith-driven leadership and straight talk on saying no to bad fits.

In this replay episode of Coach to Scale, host Matt Bonelli sits down with Ben Johnson, VP at Zendesk, seasoned sales leader, and longtime CrossFit coach, to explore what it really takes to build a thriving sales career. Drawing on more than 25 years of experience at companies like Dell, Oracle, Workday, and Zuora, Ben challenges the myth that sales success is measured only by the quarter. Instead, he shares why the true differentiator is consistent coaching, a culture of accountability, and the willingness to sharpen your sword through personal development.Listeners will walk away with actionable insights on transforming performance improvement plans into coaching opportunities, creating cultures where vulnerability is strength, and distinguishing between “must-dos” and “how-tos” in sales leadership. From rebranding coaching as a growth engine to embracing “deeds, not words,” this conversation delivers timeless lessons for sales reps, managers, and leaders who want to play the long game and win.Key Takeaways1. Coach to the career, not the quota – Long-term success comes from developing people beyond just hitting short-term numbers.2. Performance Improvement Plans can be growth tools – When used correctly, PIPs should guide reps toward improvement, not serve as a punishment.3. Coachability is the key to success – The most successful reps are those open to feedback, willing to adapt, and eager to learn.4. Culture starts at the top – A strong coaching culture must be modeled by leadership and reinforced consistently across the organization.5. Preparation and debriefing matter as much as the meeting – Success comes from doing the pre-work, running the meeting, and reflecting afterward to continually improve.6. Focus on “must-dos” vs. “how-tos” – Clear expectations around the basics (like CRM hygiene) free up time to coach on higher-value selling skills.7. Deeds, not words – Accountability is proven through consistent actions, not promises.8. Get the bad news early – Addressing risks and challenges upfront allows teams to respond effectively instead of scrambling at the last minute.9. Invest in personal development – Ongoing learning, mentorship, and self-improvement are essential to staying sharp and thriving in sales.10. Find mentors and be one – Having someone to guide you (and paying it forward to others) accelerates growth and resilience in a sales career.

Noah's a versatile musician: drum set player, former Baylor University snare drummer, and a committed bagpiper with the Atlanta Pipe Band (where he also serves as VP). We trace his path from a Cajun-rooted musical home and an elite youth piping program, through Wesleyan School drumline and chapel band, to the intensity of a Big 12 college drumline—and how all of it shaped his musicianship, character, and career.Thank you for listening!

A candid business podcast for growth-minded leaders and entrepreneurs. Hosted by Josh Zolin. The truth about leadership, business, and becoming who you're meant to be.
Tony Shipley, a seasoned entrepreneur and founder of Queen City Angels, joins Jeff Bloomfield to share his journey from a Tennessee farm to building one of America's fastest-growing tech companies and mentoring over 125 startups. Tony reveals the timeless lessons from his upbringing, the importance of intellectual curiosity and critical thinking in entrepreneurship, and why being coachable is the most underrated trait for founders. This episode is a roadmap for anyone seeking to build a meaningful business while leaving a lasting legacy. This isn't just a conversation about startups—it's a masterclass on building something that matters. Whether you're a founder, executive, or aspiring leader, Tony's wisdom will challenge how you think about success, decision-making, and leadership. If you've ever wondered how to turn ideas into impact—or how to avoid the mistakes that sink early-stage companies—this episode is a must-hear. Entrepreneurship is simple, not easy: Businesses succeed when they focus on customer problems, not just clever ideas. Coachability trumps confidence: Founders who “know it all” rarely get funded or scale successfully. Fail fast, learn faster: Quick iteration saves time, money, and credibility. Every founder is first selling themselves, not just their product. Networking is a superpower: Mentors and advisors are everywhere if you're willing to ask. Intellectual curiosity and critical thinking are the twin engines of progress. Predictive programming drives unconscious decision-making—be aware of yours. Fractional expertise beats lone hero syndrome—hire where you lack skills. Legacy is built on people and memories, not exits or net worth. Ideas aren't fragile—if you're afraid to share them, they're not strong enough. 00:00 – Opening & Tony's $1B startup impact 03:45 – Growing up on a Tennessee farm: lessons for life and business 12:30 – The stages of entrepreneurship (idea → MVP → scale) 20:30 – Networking and the power of asking the right questions 23:30 – Fear, pride, and the failure coin in entrepreneurship 28:40 – Intellectual curiosity and critical thinking as superpowers 31:00 – Predictive programming and founder patterns 35:30 – Building a lasting personal and professional legacy Why You Should Listen Top 10 Takeaways Chapter Markings 39:35 – Resources and how to get started in entrepreneurship

Tune in to the Habit-Based Lifestyle Podcast, where host Jesse Ewell guides you on a journey to realign with the habits that unlock your full potential. In this episode, Jesse Ewell discusses the critical distinction between coachability and control in the context of personal and business growth. He emphasizes that many individuals hinder their progress by clinging to the belief that they know their business best, which can lead to decision-making paralysis and a lack of execution. Jesse outlines the importance of being open to coaching, taking responsibility for outcomes, and trusting the process to achieve desired results. He encourages listeners to reflect on where they may be choosing control over growth and to take actionable steps towards improvement. Takeaways Hiring a coach is about gaining a new perspective. Clinging to control can hinder business growth. Decision-making paralysis is a common issue for high-performers. Execution is more important than constant tweaking. Real ownership means taking responsibility for results. Many business owners still act like employees. Trusting the process is essential for success. Doing something different is better than doing nothing. Recognizing when you're the bottleneck is crucial. Reflect on where you're choosing control over growth.

Why do some people grow while others stay stuck, despite having the same background, training, and opportunities? In this episode, Junior and Dr. Timothy R. Clark explore the critical but often overlooked factor: coachability. They break it down into two essential components: willingness and self-awareness, and explain how leaders can identify, develop, and leverage coachability to accelerate performance. Whether you're leading a team or developing your own skills, this conversation will challenge the way you think about growth, feedback, and potential.
"Coachability is a crucial mindset that builds individual and teacher efficacy and thus student success. Coaching conversations should have a human connectedness built on hope, trust, gratitude, strength, and purpose."

In this episode, Drs. Milt Lowder and Drew Brannon explore the powerful role coachability plays in performance and growth. They unpack why this trait is so highly valued by leaders, hiring managers, and coaches alike. Learn what it means to be truly coachable: having a growth mindset, showing humility, taking action, and embracing accountability. Whether you're leading, learning, or leveling up, this conversation will challenge you to become more coachable.
In this episode of the Health and Wellness Coach Journal Podcast, Dr. Jessica Singh sits down with Clare Norman, Master Certified Coach and author of Cultivating Coachability. With over twenty years of experience in coaching and coach supervision, Clare is on a mission to encourage coaches to be more vocal about coachability, expecting more of coaching custodians and thinkers alike such that those thinkers are coaching-ready Together, Clare and Dr. Singh explore the often-overlooked but essential concept of coachability: what it is, how it differs from coaching readiness, and why it matters. Clare offers thoughtful distinctions that speak to the heart of what many coaches experience in practice: misalignment, unclear expectations, or clients who may not yet be ready for the work coaching entails. This conversation highlights how coaches must cultivate coachability to stay aligned with their ethics and scope of practice, regardless of their niche or practice setting. In this episode, Clare Norman also explores the often-overlooked role of the coaching custodian—those who hold responsibility for the structure, delivery, and integrity of coaching within organizations. In private practice, the coach often assumes this role themselves, making intentional coach screening and assessing whether coaching is appropriate particularly important. Clare offers thoughtful guidance on setting boundaries, screening for coachability, and reframing success in ways that support more ethical, sustainable coaching relationships. Her insights equip coaches to lead with greater clarity, care, and accountability—whether they're working independently or within a broader system. Whether you're a new coach navigating your first few clients or a seasoned practitioner, this episode sheds light on how to cultivate coachability for deeper, more sustainable impact.

They explore why some professionals resist change, how coachability and curiosity shape growth, and what leaders should look for when hiring top talent. Through real-world examples and insights, they unpack the psychology behind adaptability, trust, and long-term potential in business and sales leadership.KEY TAKEAWAYS[00:00:25] The Misconception About Adaptability – Many professionals mistakenly see adaptability as a weakness rather than a strength[00:01:28] The Evolution of Career Mobility – Job-hopping is no longer a red flag but an expectation in today's job market[00:02:39] Trust, Micromanagement, and Coaching Resistance – Leaders should examine the deeper reasons behind employee concerns about trust.[00:03:44] The Fear of Change and Growth – Some individuals resist coaching because they fear exposing what they don't know.[00:04:07] The Link Between Coachability and Adaptability – Success depends on both being coachable and having the courage to act on feedback.[00:04:58] The Ceiling Effect in Performance – Those who resist change often never reach their full potential[00:05:25] Curiosity as a Key to Growth – A lack of adaptability often correlates with a lack of curiosity[00:06:47] Recognizing and Managing Resistance in Employees – Leaders must understand when an employee's resistance to change is really about their comfort zone.QUOTES[00:02:17] "It's not a problem not to know, but it is a crime punishable by death not to do anything about it and not to ask."}[00:04:07] "Coachability and adaptability go together—you have to be coachable first, then courageous enough to change."[00:04:58] "The best performers never protect their current level—they always push for what's next."[00:05:25] "Curiosity and adaptability are deeply connected—those unwilling to ask ‘what if' often resist growth."[00:06:09] "When employees pull the ‘trust card,' it's often their last resort to avoid change."Listen to the full conversation through the link below.https://revenue-builders.simplecast.com/episodes/the-importance-of-recruiting-behavioral-traits-with-chaz-maclaughlinEnjoying the podcast?

Welcome to the DMF! I'm Justin Younts, and today we're diving into how actors can find their ideal connections in the industry. It's crucial to surround yourself with the right people, especially in a field where negativity can easily creep in. Many actors find themselves in a cycle of complaining about their circumstances, which can be detrimental to their careers. I share a hilarious yet eye-opening story about two actresses who were unaware that the executive producer of the show they were auditioning for was sitting right next to them while they grumbled about the series. This serves as a reminder that you never know who might be listening, and maintaining a positive attitude is key. Instead of getting caught up in the negativity, I encourage actors to seek out diverse opportunities—like theater groups, film festivals, and workshops—to meet a variety of people and expand their network. It's all about building connections that can lead to future opportunities. I also touch on the importance of continuous learning and practice, just like athletes and musicians do. Remember, if you don't use it, you lose it! So, let's keep honing our craft and stay ready for when the industry opens back up. Join me as we explore these strategies and more to elevate your acting career!00:00:00 - Introduction00:00:06 - The Importance of Networking and Attitude in the Acting Industry00:03:11 - Alternatives to Traditional Acting Groups and Workshops00:03:45 - Discussion on the Book's Structure and Themes00:04:32 - Understanding the Five Factor Model of Personality00:06:33 - The Dark Triad and Its Implications00:07:30 - The Issue of Procrastination Among Actors00:08:14 - The Importance of Regular Practice and Training00:10:01 - The Role of Agreeableness and Coachability in Acting00:11:47 - Conclusion and Call to Action

How does someone rise from stacking pallets in a Pepsi warehouse to leading a billion-dollar brand? In this episode, I sit down with Scott Miller, former Essentia Water CEO and author of Summit Mindset, to unpack the philosophy that turns relentless ambition into meaningful success. Scott brings his book's principles to life as he shares the four pillars that ground him Faith, Family, Business, and Others, proving that sustainable achievement begins when people come before profit. He walks us through his Failure → Reflection → Persistence cycle, the daily rituals that fuel high performance, and the game-changing question he asks his team every week: "What did we suck at this time?" because real growth starts with honest reflection. The conversation turns deeply personal as Scott revisits a heart-to-heart with his father on his deathbed, a moment that still shapes his leadership today. At the core of it all? The idea of a North Star, a guiding light that cuts through the noise when data and pressure cloud judgment. Scott challenges us to define ours, lean on our own pillars, and keep climbing, especially when the summit feels out of reach. We wrap up with practical ways to build cultures where vulnerability fuels strength, ambition goes hand in hand with kindness, and true leadership starts within. If you're ready to rise without leaving your values behind press play and let Summit Mindset show you the way. Meet Our Guest: Scott Miller Scott Miller is a seasoned executive and author renowned for his transformative leadership in the global beverage industry. Now the Co-founder & CEO of YESLY Water, Scott began his career on the warehouse floor at Pepsi, gaining firsthand experience that propelled him through the ranks to executive leadership roles. Miller's people-first approach to business has been a hallmark of his career, emphasizing innovation, corporate social responsibility, and community involvement. Notably, he led the growth and acquisition of Essentia, a national bottled water brand, culminating in its sale to global food and beverage leader Nestlé. In his debut book, The Summit Mindset: Winning the Battle of You Versus You, co-authored with James C. Moore, Miller shares insights drawn from his personal and professional journey. The book serves as a guide for individuals seeking to overcome internal obstacles and achieve personal and professional growth. Miller introduces concepts like identifying one's "North Star" and emphasizes the importance of self-reflection, consistency, and embracing change to reach one's full potential. Miller's philosophy centers on the belief that by confronting our internal challenges and maintaining a commitment to continuous improvement, we can attain both personal fulfillment and professional success. What You'll Learn in this Episode: The story behind The Summit Mindset and the four pillars that guide Scott's life Why adversity is the greatest teacher—and how to build consistency through it The power of asking, “What did we suck at?” in high-performance cultures How vulnerability and humility foster stronger, more accountable teams Why protecting your “sense of self” is the most important leadership asset The difference between success that lasts and success that fades How habits create confidence, and confidence creates transformation What it means to serve others while fiercely competing at the highest level How Scott's health challenges and personal losses shaped his leadership style Resources & Links Scott Miller Book: The Summit Mindset on Amazon Instagram: @ScottMillerYouVsYou LinkedIn: Scott Miller Ed Molitor LinkedIn: Ed Molitor Website: www.themolitorgroup.com YouTube Channel: The Athletics of Business Join us at the 2025 Coaching Effect Summit in Kansas City, June 11–12.

In this electrifying episode, Mark Jewell sits down with Jake Underwood, President & CEO of Sulvaris, to unpack what it really means to be intentional as a leader. From extreme focus and disciplined action to navigating economic headwinds in agriculture, this conversation dives deep into the mindset, strategy, and habits required to succeed in today's market. Drawing inspiration from elite athletes and hard-earned leadership lessons, Jake delivers a masterclass on how to show up and play like a pro—whether you're leading a company or managing a territory.Key Takeaways:Intentionality = Obsession with Action: It's not about setting goals—everyone does that. It's about obsessing over the daily actions and tactics that actually move the needle.Controlling the Controllables: In an uncertain ag economy, staying focused on what you can control—your effort, mindset, time, and habits—is what separates average from elite.Discipline Over Distraction: Eliminate the noise. From your phone notifications to political chatter, anything that pulls focus from your mission should be ditched, deferred, or delegated.Coachability and Continual Growth: Jake credits mentors, coaches, and even his mistakes as essential parts of his growth. Leaders must remain students—always learning, always evolving.Lessons from the Locker Room: Just like Final Four athletes, the pros in business win not because they set bigger goals, but because they execute the basics—relentlessly.Using the 4D Framework: Mark shares his powerful tool for time management: Do, Defer, Delegate, or Ditch—so you can stay aligned with what matters most.Driving Team Performance in Tough Markets: Jake explains how keeping teams mentally strong, customer-focused, and value-driven is key to thriving when the economy gets tight.Notable Quotes:“It doesn't take talent to set a goal. What matters is the obsession with the actions that achieve it.” – Jake Underwood“We all want to win, but not everyone's willing to obsess over the playbook.” – Mark Jewell“If it doesn't move the mission forward or serve what I've been divinely guided to do, it's not going on my calendar.” – Mark Jewell“Too many professionals don't see themselves as professionals.” – Mark Jewell“Be relentless about what you consume—your next level of performance depends on it.” – Jake UnderwoodNo matter what the market is doing, you still have the power to lead with purpose. This episode is a reminder that champions aren't made on the sidelines—they're built through consistent, intentional action. Whether you're a CEO or just starting out, now's the time to double down on what you can control. Get obsessed with your habits, get clear on your mission, and don't settle for anything less than excellence.
“Coachability is not just teachability. It's not just a willingness to learn. It's a willingness to unlearn and change. Coachability is a moral capacity that allows a person to accept feedback, acknowledge faults, limitations, and deficiencies, and to act on that new information.” (Timothy Clark) As instructional coaches and school leaders, we can play a big role in shaping culture of coachability. We do it through the way we listen, the questions we ask, and the tone we set when offering feedback. Find Timothy Clark's article, "Are You Coachable?" here.

Here's an important question: Are you coachable? Now, before you jump to answer that, I want you to pause and really think about what being coachable or coachability really means. "Coachability" is essential for top performance in sales - and for that matter ANY endeavor. It simply describes how receptive you are to feedback and guidance; AND, how willingly and effectively you apply coaching to improve your performance. Coachability is an open mindset—being flexible, adaptable, the willingness to learn and consider different perspectives, and inviting criticism and critique—without getting defensive. It's about keeping yourself from slipping into the “I already know it all” or “There's nothing new here” trap or deciding flatly that you don't need help because you're just that good. Mindset and Self-Awareness True coachability begins with a belief that you can improve and a deep seated desire to grow. This belief opens the door to being more receptive to feedback and coaching. It also requires self-awareness. It's about recognizing and being honest about your strengths, weaknesses and areas where you can improve. It is the vulnerability and the courage to look in the mirror at your imperfections. Where there is self-awareness there is the opportunity for transformation—even, by the way, when you already feel that you are at the top of your game. The truth though is, most of us, at one point or another, are not coachable. We get stuck in our own heads, resist change, and bristle at feedback—especially when it challenges what we believe about ourselves. Coachability is the Hallmark of Ultra-High Performers But here's the kicker: coachability is the hallmark of ultra-high performers. Look at any elite athlete, and you'll find a coach nearby. Many of them have an entire team of coaches. I'm a huge golf fan. Golf, for me, is more than a sport; it's a metaphor for sales and life. It's hard, humbling, and mastering it is an infinite game. The best golfers in the world spend a ton of money on coaches. They'll have a swing coach, a putting coach, and even a mental coach to keep their head in the game. Why? Because coaches can see what they cannot. When I'm working with my own golf coach it sometimes hurts to have him stand there and critique my swing - especially when I think what I'm doing is right. But when I swallow my pride, take it in, and apply it, I see results. I get better, I score lower, and I have more fun. A Great Coach Exposes Your Blind Spots Sales is no different. It's tough, it's competitive, and it seems impossible to ever reach “perfection.” A sales great coach exposes your blind spots. They can help you see what you're doing right (and need to do more of) and what you're doing wrong (and need to correct). The challenge is, so many salespeople resist the feedback. They sit in training sessions or roleplays with their arms crossed, telling themselves that they don't need this. Veterans, in particular, get stuck in their ways, acting like they've got nothing left to learn. But I also see the opposite problem with rookies or young reps who can't handle any criticism without interpreting it as a personal attack. Both groups end up shutting down, pushing their coaches away and missing an opportunity to grow. Coaches Invest in You Because They Care The fact is, coaches are investing time in you because they care about you and want to see you succeed. That doesn't mean they won't be tough on you, but it does mean they have your best interests at heart. Early in my career, I was blessed with a fantastic sales coach named Bob Blackwell. He pushed me hard—probably harder than anyone ever had—and at first, it rubbed me the wrong way. I'd go home, complain to my wife about how he was criticizing me. I was convinced that he was intentionally picking on me. One day I was complaining about Bob to my dad—who knew a little something about life. He said,
