Welcome back to the Messy Success Podcast. This episode is a little different. Instead of a solo teaching episode, you're getting a real, unfiltered look inside a bonus group coaching call from Elizabeth's program, Elevate. It's an honest look at what it actually takes when you're growing your business on social media and the results aren't showing up the way you hoped. This episode is for you if you've ever wondered whether you're the only one whose Instagram isn't converting, whether you should be leaning into long form content vs short form content, or whether it's too late to name the next chapter of your business out loud. Elizabeth walks a group of her Elevate members through a handful of simple journal prompts, and what comes up is honest, funny, and deeply relatable. You'll hear real business owners talk through new offers, fear, imposter syndrome, and the discomfort of showing up when nobody's watching yet. Elizabeth also shares her own thirteen years of experimenting in real time, including a story about TikTok that proves persistence pays off even when the results feel invisible. If you've been waiting for permission to be new at something, to change direction, or to simply keep going, this episode is that permission. Press play, grab a journal, and let whatever comes up for you be enough.
In this episode, I sat down with Elise Kirk to explore her journey with emotional eating, a coping mechanism that reveals more about deeper unmet needs than a lack of discipline. As a mother of five, Elise candidly shared how her struggles with dysregulation affect her everyday life, leading us to uncover the wisdom hidden in her behaviors. Our conversation delved into understanding how seemingly negative habits can be symptoms of stress, social rejection, and overwhelming demands. Through our discussion, I found myself reflecting on the importance of self-compassion over self-criticism. Together, we identified practical ways Elise could start addressing her depleted energy levels, focusing on true self-care beyond the surface. This episode is not only about recognizing the roots of one's habits but also about holding space for personal growth in a way that's meaningful and realistic.

A slow lender is not always a problem. Sometimes, it is proof that the product is worth waiting for. In this solo episode, I break down how to set expectations with clients when the best lender is not the fastest option. The key is to explain the tradeoff early, give the client a choice, and let them decide what matters more: speed or the better deal. When clients understand why the process may take longer, the stress drops for everyone. In this episode, I cover: Why Slow Is Not Always Bad - A lender may be slower because the product is strong and demand is high. How to Frame the Tradeoff - Show the client the fast option and the better-priced option so they can compare both. Why Expectations Matter - If you explain the timeline early, the delay feels expected instead of frustrating. How Client Choice Reduces Stress - Once the client chooses the slower option, they understand what they agreed to. The Restaurant Lineup Metaphor - A lineup can be proof that people believe the experience is worth the wait. Do not sell speed when speed is not the main problem you are solving. Explain the options, set the expectation, and let the client choose.

Many coaches think they need to create an entirely new offer before they can charge more, scale, or stand out. Kendra argues the opposite.In this episode, she explains why you probably already have a signature program—you've just never packaged it that way. If you've been coaching clients for a while, chances are you're following the same process, teaching the same concepts, and solving the same problems over and over again. That's your framework. It just needs a name.Kendra walks through how to uncover your methodology, turn repeated coaching into scalable resources, and create a client journey that feels more valuable without changing the actual work you deliver.In This Episode:Stop Selling Features—Start Selling the TransformationFind the Coaching Framework You're Already UsingTurn Your Repeatable Process Into a Branded MethodPull Education Out of Coaching Calls to Save TimeCreate Resources That Make Your Program More ScalableThe Simple Milestone Strategy That Keeps Clients EngagedWhy Progress Beats Promising ResultsFive Action Steps to Package Your Existing OfferResources mentioned: Free Signature Offer Guide: https://go.kendraperry.net/what-to-sell-instead-1 Leave the podcast a 5-star review: https://ratethispodcast.com/wealthy

Abia Mallick never planned to run a marathon herself until she volunteered at the finish zone of the New York City Marathon, where a woman stopped by the fence near her to catch her breath and ended up sharing her story, a story that stuck with Abia so much she threw her own name into the marathon lottery, assuming she'd never get in.But spoiler alert: she did. Her training tested her more than she expected: her body kept finding new things to ache, and she leaned hard on her physical therapist and her community to get through it. Race day brought its own complications, and by the time she reached mile 26, what carried her through was the community of people that she's built around her. Follow along with Abia on Instagram: @abiamallickFollow along with the show:
You do not need to figure everything out from scratch. You can cheat on the test. This episode comes from a talk I gave during our spring BrokerTalks events last April-May. I break down how mortgage brokers can copy a simple podcast strategy that already works and use it to build relationships, create trust, and generate business. I also share the two-show strategy I would use today: interview episodes to grow your network and solo episodes to show your expertise. The best part is that you can batch the whole thing in one afternoon a month. You do not need a studio, a big team, or thousands of downloads. You need a clear title, a simple format, and the willingness to copy what works and put it into action. In this episode, I cover: How to Cheat on the Test - Stop trying to invent everything yourself and start copying strategies that have already proven to work. The Two-Show Strategy - Use interviews to grow your network and short solo episodes to build trust and demonstrate your expertise. Why Local Podcasts Work - A small, focused audience can be far more valuable than thousands of listeners who will never do business with you. How to Find Content Ideas - Use client questions, closed files, market changes, and stories from your sent folder. How to Launch Without Overcomplicating It - Pick a clear title, record several episodes in advance, and publish consistently. You do not need a brand-new strategy. Cheat on the test, copy what already works, make it relevant to your market, and start.

I get this question all the time from my first-time marathoners: if I don't have a time goal, why do I need to do speed work? In this week's mini episode, I'm breaking down exactly why I still program speed work for athletes who aren't chasing a specific finish time, what it's actually teaching your body and mind, and how something as simple as picking up the pace at a colorful mailbox can prepare you for those brutal last six miles of your marathon.Follow along with the show:

Sara played tennis all through high school, but running stayed casual for her, a mile here or there, until 2023, when she signed up for her first 5K and then got sidelined by a health complication for most of the year. By summer 2024 she was back on the trail outside Chicago, and after watching the para-athletes and half marathoners at a local race, she reached out to a charity for a Chicago Marathon bib almost on impulse. She texted her fiancé that she thought she'd just signed up for 26.2 miles. He wrote back, "You think?"But by no means was training easy for her. A flooded house sent her and her husband to live with his in-laws for nine weeks that August, running took a back seat to insurance calls and contractors, and her peak mileage never got close to where it needed to be. She made it to the start line anyways, but a chaotic corral search, the Chicago heat, and something that happened to her knee around mile seventeen turned the back half of that race into a fight she wasn't sure she'd win. What got her from that curb to the finish line is a story you're going to want to hear.Follow along with Sara on Instagram at @thatssosaaraa !Follow along with the show:

https://teachhoops.com/ You can devour every single podcast episode on this channel, fill up a dozen legal pads with advanced multi-ball drills, and spend hours analyzing spatial cutting geometry. But at the end of the day, passive consumption will only get your program so far. Every single gym ecosystem faces its own highly specific, highly isolated operational leaks. Maybe you are staring at a roster trapped in a robotic rut of coach-fed compliance and you can't figure out the exact socratic constraints needed to jumpstart their Decision IQ. Maybe your assistant coaches have grown passive, and you need an exact blueprint to realign their organizational lenses. Or maybe you are heading into an intense winter stretch and you are wrestling with how to protect your team's Next Play Speed under heavy community pressure. In this episode, we step directly into the "Truth Room" to talk about the power of direct, personalized mentorship. We break down why the absolute best program builders never coach in a vacuum. Discover what happens when you stop guessing through the off-season and instead lock in a private, 1-on-1 Coaching Call with Coach Collins to audit your practice scripts, maximize your gym's Activity Density, and map out a definitive, level 4 championship workflow. When you jump on a private consulting call, we bypass empty generalities and immediately put your entire program through a sharp, analytical filter: The Filter: We pull apart your current 120-minute practice timeline down to the exact second. We find the hidden time leaks where players are standing in lines or listening to long lectures, and we inject high-transfer Multi-Ball architectures and Small-Sided Games ($SSGs$) that force players to read defensive hips through the exhaust. The Filter: We map out your staff's unique DNA. I will show you exactly how to weaponize your assistant coaches by deploying them through distinct lenses—empowering your Organizer to command the transitions and utilizing your Antagonist to fiercely police your closeouts and vocal habits. The Filter: We evaluate your offensive entries and defensive coverages to ensure they are engineered to maximize your Effective Field Goal Percentage ($eFG%$): Coach's Note: "The loneliest place in sports is sitting in an empty gym office late at night trying to solve all your program's cultural and tactical puzzles by yourself. The best coaches I've ever been around aren't lone wolves—they seek out direct, high-signal mentorship to sharpen their edge. Don't waste another season running into the exact same operational bottlenecks. Let's get on a call, unpack your tape, audit your standard of tolerance, and build an unshakeable blueprint to take your program to the next level."
