We've been taught to chase success… But have you ever stopped to ask: What does success even mean to me? In this episode of More Than Mindset, I'm getting real about how our personal definition of success shapes everything—our choices, our satisfaction, even our sense of self-worth. And I'll walk you through the exact questions I ask my clients (and myself) to get clear on what we're really after. You'll learn: 1️⃣ Why chasing someone else's version of success will always leave you empty 2️⃣ The three questions that define your own success blueprint 3️⃣ How guilt and shame around “wanting more” secretly block your growth 4️⃣ Why clarity—not hustle—is the first step to getting what you want This is your permission to redefine success on your own terms—and finally feel it.

In this transformative episode of the Stuck In My Mind Podcast, host Wize El Jefe and co-host Craig Andrews welcome Peter Teuscher, an international entrepreneur, senior corporate executive, transformational coach, and passionate advocate for soulful leadership. Across a deeply engaging conversation, Peter shares the twists and lessons of his journey from building businesses in Canada to coaching executives and leading workshops around the globe. Purpose, Happiness, and Leadership in the Modern World Right from the start, Peter unpacks the single biggest lesson drawn from his years in corporate and entrepreneurial environments: the indispensable role of purpose in work and life. He shares candid reflections about how a sense of meaning—knowing your “why”—is more fundamental than any promotion or paycheck. Peter drives home the point that true fulfillment stems not just from external success, but from the alignment between daily work and deeper values. In a world obsessed with positive change, Peter urges listeners to look inward, saying positive change is best measured by your sense of fulfillment and the value you bring to others, rather than just meeting surface-level goals. Through relatable anecdotes and stories from his global travels, he reveals how cultural differences impact leadership—contrasting Asia's hierarchical structures with North America's flatter, entrepreneurial approaches—and what it truly takes to build trust and earn respect as a leader in any environment. Curiosity, Resilience, and Reinvention Curiosity, according to Peter, has been a driving force at every stage of his journey. He recounts the leap of faith it took to leave a thriving Canadian business and embrace new challenges in Europe's corporate world—underscoring that real growth often demands stepping into discomfort and uncertainty. One of the most relatable segments comes when Peter and Craig explore the “myth of the slimy salesperson.” Drawing from decades of sales experience, Peter dismantles the outdated view that sales is about persuasion or manipulation. Modern selling, he insists, is rooted in service: “How can I add value? How can I be of help?” This mindset shift is essential not only for sales pros, but for coaches, content creators, and anyone learning to value their unique contributions in business. Confidence and “knowing your worth” are recurring themes, especially for new entrepreneurs struggling to price their services or articulate their value. Peter shares his early struggles with setting rates and how underpricing or giving work away for free diminished client commitment. Ultimately, he reveals, people won't value what you don't value yourself. Balancing Strategy with Intuition When the discussion turns to coaching leaders, Peter dives deep into the art of balancing rigorous strategy with a healthy dose of intuition. He explains that strategic models are merely guidelines—adaptability, presence, and gut instinct matter just as much, especially in unfamiliar or rapidly changing contexts. Peter encourages leaders to cultivate self-awareness, listen for feedback, and not become rigidly attached to any particular plan. Unlearning Corporate Habits: The Coach's Mindset Among the most striking insights is Peter's account of transitioning from corporate leadership, where giving answers is often the expectation, to coaching, where the art lies in asking the right questions. The shift from “solving problems” for others to empowering them to find their own answers is at the heart of his approach, and one of the main reasons he believes in the transformational power of good coaching. On Failure, Vulnerability, and Growth Both Peter and Wize share honest accounts of professional and personal “failures”—or as they reframe them, crucial learning moments. From significant business losses in Canada to questioning his own purpose later in life, Peter emphasizes that it's not the setbacks themselves, but the bounce-back and lessons learned, that shape who we become. He even describes hosting “failure nights,” encouraging leaders to openly discuss mistakes in order to build resilience and foster innovation. Vulnerability, according to Peter, doesn't undermine authority—it establishes trust. He outlines how admitting mistakes, showing your human side, and being authentic at work are key to building respect and inspiring others, far more than projecting invulnerability ever could. The Power of Personal Practice Listeners are also treated to Peter's personal daily practices—especially his quarter-century commitment to meditation and grounding morning rituals. These, he says, keep him connected to his purpose and ensure he approaches each day with clarity and intention. Defining Success and a Message for Future Changemakers Success, for Peter, is not defined by material achievements, but by continual growth and happiness. He leaves the audience with a resonant piece of advice: before trying to lift up others, first develop your own potential and sense of fulfillment. Only then can you truly inspire and help those around you. Episode Highlights: The critical importance of knowing your “why” How cultural differences shape leadership and trust Redefining sales from persuasion to service and value How to price yourself confidently as a coach, consultant, or creator The skill sets and mindset shifts needed to thrive in entrepreneurship vs. corporate life Vulnerability as an essential leadership quality Why authentic communication and deep listening are hallmarks of great leaders The transformative role of meditation and self-awareness practices About the Guest Peter Teuscher is a sought-after coach, facilitator, and the author of “Rethinking Happiness.” He works with leaders and teams worldwide, helping them overcome self-imposed barriers and step into more impactful, purpose-driven roles.

If you've ever questioned your worth, struggled with failure, or wondered how to blend soul and strategy in business, this episode promises inspiration and real-world tools to help you move forward. Listen, reflect, and discover how embracing curiosity, authenticity, and presence can help you become not just a better leader, but a happier and more impactful human being.

Sometimes the biggest seasons of growth come from the hardest chapters of life.In this episode, we sat down with the incredibly honest and grounded Anna Lord to talk about what it really looks like to evolve your business while navigating personal change—moving cities, processing grief, shifting priorities, starting a family… and doing it all without losing momentum.We talked about letting go of the timeline you thought you had to follow. About redefining what success looks like (and feels like). About giving yourself permission to shift—not just for the sake of your business, but for the sake of your life.And maybe most importantly, we talked about what happens when you stop trying to do it all and start building a support system that actually supports you.If you've been feeling the tension of growing your business while also being human, this conversation will remind you: you're not behind, you're just in a new chapter. And you're more capable than you think.No more fear of falling behind.No more pressure to get it perfect.No more doing it all alone.You get to evolve. You get to grow slow. You get to win on your terms.Let's talk about what that can actually look like.

In this episode, Nick & Tyler talk through the emotional side of building a business — the doubt, the grind, and the quiet moments where it feels like nothing is working. Inspired by a post that hits close to home, they open up about the mental weight of leadership, how to tell when “hard” is part of the process or a sign to pivot, and why success comes not from certainty, but from showing up anyway.

What does it mean to call something “Christian music”? Nick Barré has spent decades in the music industry—from working at EMI with early Switchfoot to managing major names like Casting Crowns, KB, Brandon Heath, and more. In this 200th episode of The Biblical Mind, he joins Dru Johnson to reflect on the Christian music label, the tension between calling and category, and how artists navigate faith and fame. Nick argues that labeling music—or restaurants or plumbers—as “Christian” may do more harm than good. He shares why genre categories are a business necessity but spiritually unhelpful, and why the most important questions artists must answer are about calling, audience, and identity—not chart placement. From spiritual burnout to public affirmation, from the temptations of platform to the dangers of envy, Nick shares pastoral, industry-hardened wisdom on how to guide artists into longevity and spiritual wholeness. He even offers advice for aspiring Christian musicians—and what it really means to “show, not tell” when pursuing a creative calling.

Are you struggling to find purpose in your journey or business? This week on Podcast Talent Coach, I sat down with entrepreneur and ocean conservationist Rich German to dive deeply into the connection between passion, purpose, and creating real impact with your platform. DEFINING PURPOSE FOR SUCCESS If you're searching for stronger work-life balance, or wondering how to blend your business with your life's calling, you're going to want to listen. We break down exactly how finding your true "why" can make the bumps in the road easier to overcome, and how it will magnetize listeners who share your mission. Rich German's journey from burnout to balance is one every entrepreneur should hear. He's led thousands of coaching calls, built the JV Insider Circle into a leading community for coaches and authors, and then made the bold leap into environmental activism and nonprofit leadership with Project O. He did all while designing a life that lets him spend every morning with the whales. VISION FOR YOUR LIFESTYLE What is Rich's secret? Set a vision for your lifestyle first, then build a business that funds your dream. Rich shares actionable steps to start your own transition, from group coaching models to automating your business, so you spend less time grinding and more time living your story. As a content creator, you know connecting deeply with your audience is everything. That starts by owning your origin story and weaving your "why" into every episode. In this interview, you'll learn why defining your greater purpose creates more powerful, profitable relationships with listeners. Your passion isn't just a background detail – It's your driving force! When you make your content about your unique mission, not just revenue, you'll sustain your efforts regardless of challenges, and attract raving fans who share your values. It's time to stop chasing trends and start building unforgettable bonds through your podcast. WORKFLOW TO SUPPORT PURPOSE Rich and I also discussed practical strategies to strengthen your workflow. Are you feeling stretched thin, working 24/7 without seeing the results you want? Rich's approach is a blueprint for efficiency and clarity: schedule your work around your life, not the other way around, eliminate busywork, and laser in on the 20% of actions that produce 80% of your results. We even explored why it's so hard for many business owners to “unhook” from the grind and fully step into their deepest calling. If you're craving more time, impact, and joy, these are lessons for every podcaster and entrepreneur. RESOURCES MENTIONED This episode is packed with actionable resources for you.

What is the secret to consistently delivering high-quality work, day in and day out...Recently, I was chatting with my neighbours who run a bespoke interior design and manufacturing business.They make truly stunning, customised pieces for the upper market.It's easy to think their success hinges on exceptional craftsmanship, which is surely part of it.But what really keeps their business running smoothly is something far more fundamental.In my conversation with them, we agreed that most of it comes down to things like having the right supplies available, making sure everything in its place so it can be found quickly, that tools in tip-top shape, and even something as simple as having lunch prepared so you don't have to worry about it.These basic and somewhat "boring" conditions, are what enable them to deliver consistently high-quality work. Without them, production would be a slog, quality would be all over the map, and let's face it, they probably wouldn't be in business for very long.We often take these kinds of conditions for granted. When things are running like a well-oiled machine, we assume that's just how it's supposed to be.But you, as a service design professional, know that the conditions for delivering your best work are often far from guaranteed.In fact, it can often feel like your organization is actively making your job harder, not easier.This brings us to the question: What would it take to create the ideal conditions for service design to achieve its maximum impact? And how can we actually put those conditions in place?Well, as you might have guessed already, that's where Design Operations (aka DesignOps) comes in.Getting started with DesignOps (or scaling it) can be a real challenge, especially in organizations that don't have a strong design heritage.But the good news is that John Calhoun and Rachel Posman have done the heavy lifting for us. They've gathered best practices from experienced DesignOps professionals and compiled them into a brand-new book "The Design Conductors".This book promises to help you kickstart or scale your DesignOps efforts more effectively, make a bigger impact, and sidestep common pitfalls. The result? Making your life as a service design professional a whole lot easier!So, with this foresight, we of course need to know more about this book.And you guessed it, that's exactly what this episode is all about.Here's already one key insight from the conversation: Every organization is already doing design operations. Most are just doing it unconsciously and missing out on the benefits. Yeah, there's a lot of low-hanging fruit waiting to be picked...--- [ 1.

This week on the New Music Business podcast, Ari sits down with Mag Rodriguez, the founder and CEO of the direct-to-fan platform EVEN. Throughout his career, Mag has helped artists generate over 1 billion streams—but now, he's focused on building a parallel music economy where artists sell directly to fans before streaming. “Superfan” platforms like EVEN are redefining how artists monetize their work.Through EVEN, Mag has partnered with J. Cole, 6LACK, LaRussell, Lauren Jauregui, Fariana, Smino, Ryan Leslie, and thousands of other artists of all levels, empowering them to take ownership of their fan relationships and unlock new revenue streams. They're essentially putting control and earnings back into the hands of artists.In this episode, Mag tells Ari about artists who don't have many followers or monthly listeners, but are making significant revenue from their fans on EVEN. They discuss the previous eras of direct-to-fan platforms (like Bandcamp, Patreon, Kickstarter) and how EVEN's music-centric model differs from these prior iterations. Superfan platforms are truly taking the industry by storm—Mag tells Ari that EVEN, alone, onboards about 8,000 artists each day. If you're interested in exploring superfan platforms, this episode is a great place to start.
