Join my Clubhouse App - https://ericrobertsfitness.com/clubhouse-page.html On today's episode, I'm breaking down exactly why group classes like Orange Theory, Peloton, and F45 are not designed to build the body you want — even if you're working your ass off. I'm covering six specific reasons why these workouts fall short when it comes to building muscle and changing your physique, from lack of progressive overload to what these classes are actually doing to your cortisol, your sleep, and your hunger. If you've ever felt like you're doing everything right but your body just won't change, this episode is going to tell you why — and exactly what to do instead.

Casual sex gets a bad reputation — but most of that reputation comes from doing it wrong. When it's rushed, unspoken, or emotionally misaligned, it can leave you feeling used, confused, or chasing someone who was never on the same page. But when you approach it with self-awareness and a willingness to actually say what you want, it can be exactly what you need. In this episode, I'm breaking down what conscious casual sex actually looks like — the different forms it can take, how to know if it's right for you right now, and the two things that separate a genuinely satisfying hookup from one that sends you into a shame spiral. In this episode, you'll learn: • The real difference between casual sex and hookup culture — and why "casual" doesn't have to mean disposable, careless, or emotionally disconnected • How to know if casual sex is actually a good fit for you right now, including the one attachment pattern that almost always makes it backfire • What to say before, during, and after a casual encounter to make sure your needs actually get met — and how to navigate hooking up within a friend group without blowing everything up More Dr. Emily: • Shop With Emily!

Does your brain love to tell you you're ugly, incapable, or untalented? What if it's right? In this Coaching Hotline episode, I dive into a listener's question about those persistent negative thoughts that tell us we're not good enough. You'll discover why it doesn't actually matter if they are objectively true or not, and why intentionally deciding how you think about yourself does.I also answer a question about the concept of vibrations and energy, where a listener is struggling to understand how thought work connects with things like chemistry, energy healing, and even Reiki. Tune in to learn how to approach these concepts with clarity, and why your beliefs about them are just as powerful as any physical sensation.Submit your own question here and it might get answered on a future episode: unfuckyourbrain.com/coachinghotlineGet full show notes, transcript, and more information here: schoolofnewfeministthought.com/473Follow along on Instagram: instagram.com/karaloewentheil/

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Jacob Teitelbaum, integrative medicine physician, researcher, and best-selling author.
Dr. Jacob Teitelbaum, integrative medicine physician, researcher, and best-selling author, has cutting edge strategies for improving sleep. He emphasizes circadian rhythms, time changes, and jet lag. He details reducing stress and “FOMO” from news and social media, prioritizing sleep by cutting nonessential activities, and the health risks of short sleep, including increased heart attack risk, obesity risk, and impaired immunity, plus the role of deep sleep and the glymphatic system. Teitelbaum recommends a dark, cool room, limiting blue light (eye masks, warm/yellow lighting), bedtime routines, sustained-release melatonin, chamomile tea, herbal blends, lavender, magnesium, and addressing issues like sleep apnea (including positional strategies), restless legs (ferritin testing, iron, magnesium), nocturnal hypoglycemia (protein snacks, phosphatidylserine), reflux (bicarbonate, bed elevation), and selective low-dose medications when needed. They also cover daylight saving time adjustment and travel strategies such as shifting schedules, melatonin timing, hydration, and morning light exposure.

Today, we welcome Dr. Greg Giuliano, advisor and executive coach to senior leaders and teams around the world, and founder of GA | Ultra Leadership. Greg is the author of three #1 Amazon Bestsellers, including his newest book, Coaching for (a) Change: How to Engage, Empower, and Activate People.Greg's WebsiteGreg on YouTube@ultraleadership on InstagramLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/greggiuliano/In this book, Greg challenges traditional command-and-control leadership and offers a practical alternative: coaching. Drawing on more than two decades of experience, he introduces the GR8 Coaching Framework, a set of eight powerful questions designed to help leaders shift from being expert problem-solvers to facilitators of ownership, engagement, and real change.Why This Book, and Why Now?Greg, let's start at the beginning. What experiences or patterns in your leadership and coaching work prompted you to write Coaching for (a) Change? What problem were you seeing leaders struggle with most?From Manager to CoachYou talk about the need for leaders to shift from “manager” to “coach.” What does that shift really mean in day-to-day leadership—and why does the old command-and-control model fall short?Ultra Leadership vs. Traditional LeadershipYou distinguish between traditional leadership and what you call Ultra Leadership. How are they different, and what behaviors separate leaders who engage and empower people from those who unintentionally shut them down?The Power of Coaching (and the Misconceptions)Many leaders say they don't have time to coach—or that coaching is soft or optional. Why is coaching actually a critical leadership skill today, and what are the biggest misconceptions leaders have about it?The GR8 Coaching FrameworkLet's get practical. Walk us through the GR8 Coaching questions. How do these questions help leaders kick the “expert problem-solver” habit and activate ownership, accountability, and change?For leaders listening right now who want to start coaching for change—but don't know where to begin—what's one question they can ask this week that would immediately shift how their people show up?Thanks to our sponsor, White Cloud Coffee — fueling creative conversations everywhere.

Nir Eyal: Beyond Belief Nir Eyal writes, consults, and teaches about the intersection of psychology, technology, and business. He is the author of two bestselling books, Hooked and Indistractable, selling more than a million copies and translated in over 30 languages. He is the author of the new book, Beyond Belief: The Science-Backed Way to Stop Limiting Yourself and Achieve Breakthrough Results (Amazon, Bookshop)*. Most of us recognize that a huge part of what motivates us – or not – is our own thinking. In this conversation, Nir and I explore where our beliefs get in the way and how we can align them just a bit to help us move forward. Key Points A sentence starting with “I am…” can be among the most dangerous in any language. Often, our beliefs limit us. Belief is the foundation of the motivation triangle that includes benefit and behavior. Yet, we often overlook beliefs. Curt Richter's study of rats in the 1950s shows how an animal's belief system can massively influence its behavior. The real question isn't “Is this belief true?” but rather, “Does this belief serve me?” You can choose beliefs based on usefulness, not certainty. Difficulty may mean we are not cut out for something, but it might also be evidence of growth. Too often, we quit too soon. Progress comes from consistent action, not perfect plans.

If your business is built on your thinking, your insight, and your ability to diagnose problems, giving strategy away for free is not generosity. It's a broken revenue model. Too many consultants, advisors, and service-based professionals fall into the same pattern. We jump on call after call, answer “quick questions,” and unpack strategy before someone has made any real commitment. It feels productive in the moment. But the reality is different. Time gets drained. Energy disappears. Proposals get ghosted. And while we're entertaining window shoppers, the people who are actually ready to invest are waiting. In this episode, we break down the mindset shift many consultants need to make: clarity itself has value. Diagnosing problems, identifying direction, and helping someone understand what to do next is real work. Lawyers charge for advice. Doctors charge for diagnosis. Accountants charge for insight. Strategists, marketers, and consultants should too. In addition, let's unpack the larger reality happening across modern marketing and business. Why many companies misuse paid advertising, why marketing cannot fix weak products, and why the explosion of AI-driven content makes authentic positioning and human connection more important than ever. If you're a consultant, strategist, coach, or service-based entrepreneur who feels stuck chasing conversations that never convert, this episode will challenge how you think about value, boundaries, and how you position your expertise in the market. Key Topics Covered: Why letting people “pick your brain” for free undermines your business The hidden revenue cost of endless discovery calls Why chasing vanity metrics and pipeline volume can hurt real growth The difference between window shoppers and serious buyers Why clarity, diagnosis, and strategy are valuable services How consultants accidentally train clients to expect free expertise Why marketing cannot fix weak products or poor positioning When paid advertising actually works and when it doesn't Why human creativity and connection still matter in an AI-driven market How boundaries and positioning increase both revenue and respect Beyond The Episode Gems: Buy My Book, Strategize Up: The Blueprint To Scale Your Business: StrategizeUpBook.com Discover All Podcasts On The HubSpot Podcast Network Get Free HubSpot Marketing Tools To Help You Grow Your Business Grow Your Business Faster Using HubSpot's CRM Platform Support The Podcast & Connect With Troy: Rate & Review iDigress: iDigress.fm/Reviews Follow Troy's Socials @FindTroy: LinkedIn, Instagram, Threads, TikTok Subscribe to Troy's YouTube Channel For Strategy Videos & See Masterclass Episodes Need Growth Strategy, A Keynote Speaker, Or Want To Sponsor The Podcast?

In today's episode, I'm diving into something that so many people get wrong in modern dating: confusing intense chemistry with actual compatibility. If you've ever felt swept up in emotional intensity only to realize later that the relationship wasn't healthy or aligned, you are not alone. We're talking about what secure attachment actually looks like while dating, how to stop letting your nervous system lead you into the same patterns, and how to show up as the calm, grounded, securely attached version of yourself who gathers real data about a partner instead of projecting fantasy.Inside this episode:Why modern dating trains us to chase chemistry and intensity and how this keeps insecure attachment patterns aliveThe mindset shift of becoming a “securely attached dating scientist” who gathers real data about compatibilityWhat secure attachment actually feels like in dating: peace, emotional safety, curiosity, and consistencyIf you've been stuck in cycles with avoidant or emotionally unavailable partners… if relationships keep starting fast and burning out… or if you're ready to finally experience a calm, healthy, secure love, this episode will give you a new framework for how to show up differently.Because the truth is: secure love doesn't start with trying harder or going on more dates.It starts with rewiring your identity, healing your nervous system, and learning how to trust yourself again.And when you do that work, you stop chasing relationships that drain you and start attracting the kind of partnership that truly adds to your life.Want support in doing this work at the deepest level?At the beginning of the episode, I mentioned my Empowered.Secure.Loved Private Coaching program, where we help you completely rewire your attachment patterns and step into your securely attached identity so you can attract and maintain the healthy relationship you deserve.You can apply for Private 1:1 Coaching here: https://www.drmorgancoaching.co/esl-breakthrough

If you're just getting started with e-commerce and you're wondering how to actually scale with limited cash and no audience, this episode is for you. I get asked this all the time: "Nathan, how do I get started when I only have a small budget?" Here's the truth: most founders tattoo their business idea to their arm. They fall in love with the brand, the product, the vision — and they hold on even when the unit economics don't work. But after launching Healthish to $1 million a year at close to 40% net margins, and helping thousands of DTC brands inside Foundr, I know exactly what works. In this episode, I break down the exact playbook I'd use if I were starting a brand new e-commerce business tomorrow with no audience and just a $10,000 budget. This is strategic, tactical, and based on what I've done and what I've seen work inside the Foundr ecosystem. Here's what you'll take away: Why high-margin products are non-negotiable — aim for 70-80% gross margin, lightweight, easy to ship How to allocate $2,500 to influencer seeding: gifting to 50-100 nano/micro influencers for UGC and organic reach The AI tool stack that lets you run lean: Manus, ChatGPT, Notion AI, Triple Whale, Canva Pro, and AdCreative.ai Why I'd spend $2,000 testing paid ads on warm audiences and messaging before scaling — not chasing 10x ROAS on day one How to build one strong product landing page using tools like Unbounce, ClickFunnels, or Shogun instead of a massive Shopify site The $2,000 emergency fund strategy: reserve cash for unexpected wins, scaling inventory, or paying creators who blow up If you're sitting on $10K and wondering where to start, or you've already launched but your unit economics don't work, this episode will show you the modern playbook for building a profitable DTC brand using AI, influencers, and smart budgeting.

Your Parenting Mojo - Respectful, research-based parenting ideas to help kids thrive
If you've been watching the news and feeling despair because you can't do anything about it, this episode is for you.The Epstein files, revealing how powerful men think about, talk about, and treat women. ICE raids tearing families apart. Strikes on Iranian cities - and schools full of children!In this episode, I make a direct connection between these social issues and what happens inside our homes every day. The patterns playing out on a global scale - where the person with more power decides whose feelings count - show up in our families too, often in moments we don't even notice, and that seem like they're about discipline. The decisions we make in those moments are quietly teaching our kids lessons we may not intend to pass on. Questions this episode will answerWhat do ICE raids have to do with parenting? When children watch some families live in fear of being separated while others are basically safe by default, they learn that some people's safety matters more than others. That same lesson can show up at home when we use our power as parents to override our kids' feelings and needs. Why is it important to teach kids about consent? Research shows that girls start shifting from seeing their body as something that helps them do things to seeing it as something to be judged - often earlier than we realize. Teaching consent starts long before those conversations about sex. It starts when we stop forcing our children to accept hugs and give kisses they don't want from well-meaning relatives. How do you explain consent to children? Consent is about whose body, feelings, and needs matter most. When we override our child's no - even in small everyday moments - we teach them that the person with more power wins. This episode explores what it looks like to do things differently. How do the Iran strikes connect to how we raise our kids? When leaders frame bombing cities where children live as "protecting freedom", they're using the same logic many of us heard growing up: that hurting someone with less power is justified when the person with more power decides it's for a good reason. This episode traces that logic from foreign policy all the way back to the family dinner table. What does it mean that we're all part of the system - not just the people doing obvious harm? It's easy to point to the person at the center causing the most visible damage. But around that person are rings of people who actively enable them, then people who know and look away, and then the rest of us - making decisions every day in our families and communities that make it more or less likely that people with power can keep using it. This episode explains what that outermost ring looks like in ordinary family life, and what it means to resist it from there. What you'll learn in this episodeWhy the same power dynamics driving ICE raids, the Epstein files, and the Iran strikes also show up in everyday parenting momentsHow the language our leaders use about migrants, women, and foreign countries shapes what our kids quietly absorb about whose lives matterWhat research tells us about how girls experience the shift from body ownership to body judgment - and what parents can do to slow that shift downWhy the parents who explode when their kids say no are often people who were never allowed to say no themselvesHow using power to manage our kids' behavior in stressful moments teaches the same lesson as the biggest injustices in the news - just on a smaller scaleWhat it looks like to build a home where your child's feelings and needs count - even when you're overwhelmed Taming Your TriggersIf you recognized yourself anywhere in this episode - if you know that when the poop hits the fan you fall back on power because you don't know what else to do - that's exactly what we work on in my Taming Your Triggers workshop. In the workshop, we go deep on why you get triggered, what you actually need in those moments, and how to build a different response from the inside out - so you're not just white-knuckling it through the hard moments anymore.And we've made it more accessible.

Most women will research every stroller, bottle, and sleep schedule for their baby but spend almost no time thinking about how to support their own body during pregnancy. In this episode, I'm sharing a “half baked” pregnancy update and pulling back the curtain on what I've actually been doing to support my body while growing this baby. The reality is that most prenatal care is focused on monitoring the baby, not optimizing the mother's health. And while that makes sense medically, it also leaves a huge gap in how women care for themselves during one of the most physically demanding seasons of life. Pregnancy is often treated like a time to pause your health goals, but I see it more like a sport that requires intentional preparation and support. In this episode, I walk through the team I've built around me including a functional practitioner, doula, midwife, pelvic floor physical therapist, chiropractor, and massage therapist and why I chose to outsource as many decisions as possible during this season. I share what the first trimester actually looked like for me, from fatigue and nausea to the unexpected mental challenge of body image changes. We also talk about the simple systems I'm using moving into the second and third trimesters, including strength training, daily movement, blood sugar stability, and pelvic floor work. I explain how I'm thinking about nutrition not just for myself, but for my baby's long-term health and taste development. We'll also talk honestly about the physical discomforts of pregnancy and the moments that can make you question whether something is wrong. Finally, I share how researching birth options shifted my mindset from nervousness to genuine excitement, and why I ultimately decided on a home birth with a midwife and doula while still working with my OB for imaging. If you're pregnant, planning to be, or just curious about a different approach to supporting your body through pregnancy, this episode offers a real, honest look behind the scenes.

In this episode of Anything But Average, Brittany and Christina dive into a very real conversation about health, healing, and the wake-up calls our bodies sometimes give us. Brittany shares the unexpected experience of landing in the hospital for an emergency appendectomy, walking through the symptoms, the fast-moving hospital visit, surgery, and what recovery has actually looked like in the days following. From the anxiety of not knowing what was happening to realizing how incredible the human body truly is, this experience became a powerful reminder about paying attention to the signals our bodies send. Christina also opens up about her own health journey right now, including ongoing back issues, exploring peptides, and the work required to maintain strength, mobility, and resilience. Together they unpack: • What happens when your body forces you to slow down • The importance of acting quickly when something feels off • Recovery, patience, and giving your body the time it needs • Exploring new tools and therapies that support healing • Why health awareness and self-care should never be optional This conversation is honest, reflective, and a reminder that even the strongest, most driven people still need to listen to their bodies. Sometimes the biggest lesson is simply this: health is everything.

https://teachhoops.com/ Coaching your best player is a delicate balancing act between empowerment and accountability. The common mistake many coaches make is "over-managing" their stars, which leads to a robotic performance, or "under-challenging" them, which leads to stagnation and a loss of team respect. To avoid this, you must establish a "Vertical Accountability" system. Your best player should be held to the highest standard in the gym—not just for their scoring, but for their "zero-talent" metrics: sprinting to the corner in transition, being the first to help a teammate up, and communicating on every defensive rotation. When your "Alpha" is your hardest worker, the "buy-in" from the rest of the roster becomes automatic. To keep a high-level player engaged during the mid-season grind, you must move from "Instruction" to "Collaboration." Give your best player a "Seat at the Table" during film sessions or scouting reports. Ask them, "What are you seeing in the ball-screen coverage?" or "Which set do you feel most comfortable running in the clutch?" This isn't about giving up your authority; it's about building their Basketball IQ and Ownership. When a player feels they helped "write the script," they are infinitely more committed to executing it. Furthermore, use "Constraint-Based" challenges in practice specifically for them—for example, they can only score using their "weak hand" or they must record three assists before they can take a shot in a scrimmage. Finally, you must master the "Art of the Public vs. Private Critique." While you should never be afraid to correct your best player in front of the team for an effort-based mistake, tactical adjustments or personal growth conversations should often happen in private "one-on-one" settings. This protects their "Social Capital" within the locker room and ensures that your relationship remains a "Safe Harbor" amidst the pressure of a season. Utilize your TeachHoops member calls to "audit" your star player's development: are they just "good for this level," or are you building the habits they need to succeed at the next level? By coaching them for their future self, you demonstrate a level of investment that breeds lifelong loyalty and championship-level performance.

Principal Matters: The School Leader's Podcast with William D. Parker
Welcome back to another episode of Monday Matters! This week, Will Parker and Jen Schwanke are taking some time to reflect on lessons they have learned through coaching school leaders. Listen in to hear the full conversation! This week’s episode was inspired by a post written by Will. You can read it below: Lessons learned in coaching leaders by William D. Parker Over the past several years of working with school leaders across the country, a few lessons have become increasingly clear. In 2017, when I transitioned from principal to executive director of my state principal association, I put more than 30,000 miles on my car in my first year in that role. My goal was to connect across the state with as many leaders one-on-one or in groups in order to secure stronger relationships, as well as get a better feel for the variety of schools represented. I have visited schools in almost every demographic imaginable — urban settings where hundred-year-old buildings house generations of learning, suburban schools supporting college towns, and rural schools where principals may also drive buses and coach teams. One school I visited in the Panhandle of Oklahoma was a district where half the schools served Oklahoma residents, and half of the district was across the border of West Texas. Since those days, I've also criss-crossed the U.S. and spoken in states from coast to coast, at schools, conferences, retreats, and workshops with an emphasis on training or equipping school leaders. I've walked the halls of a demonstration academy in Washington, D.C., observed a program for raising laying hens at a middle school near Oklahoma City, walked the shop floors of welding and robotics programs near Houston, Texas, and spent the day with principals in locations near beaches, mountains, skyscrapers, and cattle lots. In addition to walking in these various settings, I've probably spent even more time in one-on-one conversations with education leaders through virtual or phone calls. Many of these have been coaching or reflection sessions. Some of them have been one-time complimentary times, and many of them have been with leaders who meet with me regularly on a formal basis for coaching and feedback. Along the way, I have gathered a few lessons in coaching leaders that may be insightful as you think about your own development or the opportunities you may have to coach or mentor others. Lesson 1 Most people already have the answers for their next steps. They just need someone to listen and provide them clarity on what they already know they want. That may not seem like an interesting point, but it still surprises me (and the leaders whom I coach) that when we go deep on a challenge they're currently facing, they often already know what they want. The challenge is talking through the pros and cons, the risks and benefits, thoroughly enough to recognize the importance and value of what they want to do next. A lot of times, I'll use what I call the magic wand question with leaders and ask something like, “If you could wave a magic wand, what is the outcome you really want to see happen?” Simply saying this out loud can often provide the clarity and motivation needed to move forward. Lesson 2 Leaders hold roles that isolate them, and they deserve the confidence of someone they can trust. This may be obvious to you if you are a leader, but it may also be a good reminder that the more responsibility you take on in any school or organization, the less others can really understand the weight of concern you carry for those under your care. Many times, school leaders, in particular, manage people or systems where they are being pressured by people from every part of the organization. Board members, teachers, parents, students, and community members all see priorities that are important to them. You must weigh those concerns in light of information none of those other groups is really studying or considering. Yes, it's important to be transparent with the budgets, data, feedback, progress, or lack of progress you are aware of when making hard decisions. But leaders often see the wider lens of all these inputs where their staff or community only see the part most important to their group. When weighing tough decisions about personnel, student discipline, budgets, or curriculum, the leader often is the final decision maker. This position of isolation means they benefit from a third party whose perspective can be objective without being prescriptive. One benefit of working with a coach is avoiding the pitfalls of isolation. We think better with others. Sometimes those others can be the people on your teams or in your communities. At other times, you need to be alone with your thoughts long enough to have clarity, and a good coach will help you navigate your thoughts toward reaching that kind of clarity. Lesson 3 Leaders deserve to be challenged in their thinking and maintain their own growth professionally. Whenever I meet with leaders, I usually include some discussion around content on leadership or education practice. These discussions allow us to talk about writings, research, and practice from other practitioners who inform us of trends, takeaways, or insights into what is working best in improving outcomes. I not only use my own books for these discussions, but I also pull in books from leadership and education authors to guide conversations with school leaders and ask them how this looks in their practice (good or bad), and what they may want to do next to adjust, monitor, or change their own practice. As a result, I'm asking leaders to stretch themselves in their own learning. If we are going to lead learning communities, we must also remain learners. As we wrap up these three lessons, I want to add an additional self-reflection practice I like to do with leaders. If you have ever attended my trainings or listened to my podcast before, you've probably heard me share these. When I meet with leaders, I like to ask them to do a quick self-inventory based on the following statements, ranking their agreement with each statement from 1–5 (1 = little time, 5 = much time). I have been visible and present with every student, every teacher, every day this week. I have been reading, meditating, or reflecting on helpful books or lessons (and our time together also counts). I have made healthy choices in my sleep, nutrition, and exercise. I have been faithful to those I love with my time and attention. You may want to pause a moment and do some math for yourself. The goal is growth, not perfection. Coaching leaders has given me the opportunity to spend time with leaders in places I never imagined visiting before. It has also given me treasured moments of providing feedback, asking hard questions, and protecting confidences. We know in other industries like business and professional athletics that those at the top of their games receive coaching. If that is the case for men and women managing multibillion-dollar companies or competing at the highest levels, why would we not want to provide coaching for those responsible for the learning outcomes of hundreds, if not thousands, of students? Providing helpful feedback to a fellow leader — or inviting someone to sit across from you in coaching — can help you see answers that were already in front of you, protect you from isolation, and stretch your thinking. Just like we want students and teachers to have the best environments for learning, leaders deserve the best environments for their own learning as well. Coaching is one way to help leaders enjoy the very outcomes they are seeking to provide others.

This week on TOWTW Podcast, Chelsea goes solo to dismantle the questions she hears most from smart, self-aware people who are still completely spinning out. "Does he love me or am I delusional?" "Why won't she just let him go?" "What could I be doing differently?" "How could I do this to them?" "How do I prevent the pain for my children?" These questions feel important—like the answer would finally make everything hurt less. But Chelsea breaks down exactly what each one is doing to you, why they keep you stuck, powerless, or frozen in punishment mode instead of moving you forward. And then she hands you something better: the questions that can actually give you information you can use. This one's raw, direct, and deeply compassionate—because you deserve questions that help you see clearly, not ones that keep you analyzing someone else's marriage while your own life waits.SUBMIT YOUR OWN STORY https://www.theotherwomanandthewife.com/submitASK US A QUESTION We answer questions from other women and wives on our podcast: Submit yours hereHOW WE CAN HELP Join the Other Women Community: Use Code PODCAST to receive $10 off a community membership Apply for 1:1 Coaching: https://towtw.com/coachingOUR LINKS Website: https://towtw.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theowandthewife/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@theowandthewife
Most of the so-called marketing advice that advisors get sold by other marketing gurus isn't just flat-out wrong… But it also makes you focus on the wrong things! This warped perception not only stunts your marketing efforts, but it derails your confidence, dupes you into believing certain tactics (or marketing as a whole) doesn't work, and causes you to toss and turn for hours each night as you drown in your own anxiety. That's the bad news. The good news? In today's show, I share 7 marketing rules of thumb that can help you prevent all of these problems mentioned above. Plus, it will help you avoid paying a marketing guru who's feeding on your insecurity. And yes, it will make every marketing campaign you set live more successful than what you're doing today. Listen now. Show highlights include: The ONLY marketing metric that actually matters that almost every advisor completely ignores (2:29) 3 metrics every financial advisor must know to determine the health of your marketing strategy (and they have nothing to do with cost per lead, open rates, or click rates) (5:26) The "brick method" for building trust that only the top 1% of financial advisors even think about, let alone implement into their marketing (7:27) Why the fastest way to dry up your sales pipeline is by obsessing over new leads (and how to double your bottom line without a single new lead) (9:24) How worrying about being annoying, being repetitive, or overdoing a certain follow-up strategy makes you an unsafe investment to prospective customers (10:36) How to "tap into" the "mental environment" of prospective clients and hijack their minds until they become your best clients (10:59) If you're making this mistake, you're one change away from complete and utter destruction of your financial advice business… (13:42) Why you don't actually have "marketing problems" you have "sequencing problems" (and why adjusting the order can turn a flop into your best campaign) (14:39) How to naturally soothe a prospective client's nervous system before it backs out of working with you (19:21) Since you listen to this podcast, I want to give you a gift: If you subscribe to the Inner Circle Newsletter, I'll send you a collection of seven "objection busting" and copyright free emails, personally written by me, that you can use right away to begin getting more clients.

Our dialogue delves into the intricacies of anxiety and the underlying emotions that often fuel it. I invite listeners to reflect on their relationship with anxiety and how to discern the subtle messages it communicates.A significant focus of our discussion is the Hidden Emotion Model—a technique I learned and refined during my training that unveils the repressed feelings driving anxiety. Dr. Burns eloquently explains how individuals, often conscientious and "nice," suppress emotions like fear, anger, and disappointment, which leads to heightened anxiety. By recognizing and articulating these hidden emotions, individuals can often alleviate their anxiety significantly. Dr. Burns shares a compelling vignette involving a man struggling with panic attacks after receiving unexpected news about parenthood. This example illustrates the necessity of acknowledging uncomfortable emotions to pave the way for healing.Our conversation also touches on the societal stigmas surrounding emotional expression, particularly for those who identify as "nice" people. Dr. Burns and I explore how mental health diagnostics can inadvertently contribute to feelings of shame and inadequacy among patients. It's a powerful reminder that many who battle anxiety face not only internal struggles but external societal pressures that may dictate how they should feel or behave.#Anxiety, #PanicAttacks, #MentalHealth, #CBT, #DrDavidBurns, #AnxietyCoachesPodcast, #FeelingGood, #FeelingGreat, #Psychology, #Mindfulness, #SelfHelp, #Recovery, #Wellness, #Healing, #StressRelief, #InnerPeace, #MentalWellness, #SelfCare, #Therapy, #Coaching, #EmotionalIntelligence, #NervousSystem, #OvercomingAnxiety, #PanicDisorder, #SocialAnxiety, #MentalHealthAwareness, #EndTheStigma, #GrowthMindset, #Authenticity, #Boundaries, #SelfLove, #IntrusiveThoughts, #OCD, #HealthAnxiety, #MindfulLiving, #Breathwork, #Meditation, #Zen, #Spirituality, #PersonalGrowth, #Resilience, #Empowerment, #HealthyMind, #AnxietyRelief, #StressManagement, #Psychotherapy, #Counseling, #WellnessJourney, #LifeCoaching, #MentalHealthMatters, #AnxietySupportSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
