Two people died... and came back with chilling stories of ghostly voices guiding them from the brink. In this gripping episode of The Mortals, we dive into the terrifying near-death experiences of Monique Garrett, a nurse who collapsed in a haunted hospital basement in Detroit, and Luis Benavidez, a chef trapped in a deadly kitchen fire in San Antonio. Both were clinically dead for minutes—Monique for 7, Luis for over 4—yet survived against all odds after mysterious figures spoke to them with cryptic messages of purpose. Who were these spectral saviors? Were they guardians tied to these tragic places, or something else entirely? Join host Nathan Morris as we unravel these real, bone-chilling accounts of survival and the unexplainable.

The ROI Power of SEO Blogging: Time, Money, and Energy Explained with Favour Obasi-Ike | Get exclusive SEO newsletters in your inbox.In this episode, we explain the Return on Investment (ROI) of blogging for businesses, emphasizing the long-term benefits in time, money, and energy highlighting that blogging, even using AI for content creation with human refinement, significantly boosts online visibility and authority by answering frequently asked questions. Key strategies include optimizing content with keywords for search engines, updating older posts, and repurposing existing content from platforms like Clubhouse as blog posts or podcast episodes to maximize reach. The conversation also touches on the importance of creating an author profile for credibility and using search operators to understand market positioning, ultimately asserting that consistent, relevant content creation is crucial for organic growth and sustained business presence.Next Steps for Digital Marketing + SEO Services:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need SEO Services?

Visit our Work and PLAY Entertainment website to learn about our digital marketing services.FAQs on Blogging ROI and Digital Authority in the AI Age1. What is the fundamental concept behind the ROI of blogging?The Return on Investment (ROI) of blogging is viewed through three core ingredients: time, money, and energy. While many associate ROI primarily with monetary gain, the discussion emphasizes the long-term benefits and efficiency blogging can bring to a business. The idea is that a focused investment of these three resources into blogging can lead to significant and sustained positive outcomes, even if the initial outlay seems small. The goal is to maximize the impact of content creation by strategically using these ingredients, ultimately leading to increased visibility, authority, and potential for passive income.2. How can I determine if blogging is a worthwhile strategy for my business or industry?A practical method to assess the relevance of blogging for your business is to use Google search operators. By typing "blog / [your topic]" (e.g., "blog / social media tips" or "blog / how to cook chicken") into Google, you can see existing blogs that cover your intended subject matter. This directly shows you what Google recognizes as relevant content in your niche, and whether your competitors are present. If you don't see your own website or content in these results, it indicates a missed opportunity and suggests that blogging could be a beneficial strategy to gain visibility and authority in your industry. Additionally, using "site:yourdomain.com [keyword]" can reveal if your existing content is being indexed for specific keywords.3. How does updating old blog content contribute to its ROI, especially in the context of AI?Updating older blog content is crucial for maintaining and enhancing its ROI. Search engines, particularly with the rise of AI, prioritize "last mod" (last modified) dates. This means that content that has been recently updated and republished is more likely to appear in search results. By updating existing blogs, you signal to search engines that your information is fresh and relevant, increasing its visibility and authority. This practice can double the efficiency of your initial time investment, as you're leveraging existing content to continue attracting traffic and engagement, rather than starting entirely from scratch with new articles.4. Can AI tools like ChatGPT be used to effectively create blog content, and what is the recommended best practice?Yes, AI tools like ChatGPT can be effectively used for blog content creation, but the best practice is to use them as a first draft or a starting point, rather than as the sole author. While AI can generate content, it's crucial for the blogger to "humanize" it, injecting their unique voice, insights, and brand personality. One participant even mentioned using AI to write content specifically for their local business and achieving top search rankings after humanizing it. The recommendation is to use AI to get content ideas, summaries, or even initial drafts, and then to personally refine and optimize it. This ensures that the content is not only informative but also authentic and engaging for the target audience.5. How can I leverage various online platforms (search engines, social media, AI answer engines) to maximize the reach of my blog content?To maximize the reach of your blog content across various platforms, a balanced strategy is recommended:Search Engines (Traditional): Use Google and Bing for traditional search visibility.Answer Engines (Voice Search): Consider how your content would be found via voice assistants like Siri, Alexa, or Google Assistant, which provide direct answers.AI Search Engines: Utilize platforms like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Grok for AI-driven responses.By observing which brands consistently appear across all these platforms for a given topic, you can identify top authorities. Your goal is to become one such authority by consistently providing fresh, recent, and quick information. This involves writing extensive blog posts on your website (80% of your effort) and then leveraging social media (20% of your effort) to promote and build community around that content. People often discover information through search and then seek out the brand on social media, so a cohesive presence across all platforms is vital.6. What is the significance of an "author profile" in blogging for increasing online visibility and authority?An author profile attached to your blog posts significantly boosts your online visibility and authority. Most website platforms (WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, etc.) allow you to create an author profile for your published content. This profile typically includes links to your social media (LinkedIn, Facebook, X, etc.), creating a comprehensive digital footprint. Search engines and AI servers actively look for authors, profiles, and associated links, which helps them understand the context and credibility of your content. By presenting your blogs under a clear author profile (either your personal name or company name), you establish yourself or your brand as a recognized expert, increasing your chances of showing up for topical searches and building trust with your audience.7. How can I transform existing content, like podcast episodes or Clubhouse replays, into effective blog posts to drive traffic?Existing audio content, such as podcast episodes or Clubhouse replays, can be efficiently repurposed into blog posts to drive traffic. The process involves:Transcribing the audio: Use tools like Notebook LM (Google) or Descript to transcribe the audio into text.Extracting key information: From the transcription, identify frequently asked questions (FAQs) and summarize the main points.Humanizing and optimizing: Take the summary and use AI tools (like ChatGPT) to refine it into a comprehensive blog post. Crucially, humanize the AI-generated text to match your brand's voice.SEO Optimization: Incorporate relevant keywords into the blog post's title, body, and URL to improve searchability.Linking: Embed the audio (podcast or replay) within the blog post and link the blog post back to your website, social media, and any other relevant platforms.This strategy maximizes content that you've already invested time and energy into, effectively "killing two birds with one stone" by reaching both audio listeners and text readers, and creating a loop of traffic between different content formats.8. What is the "crawl budget" in relation to publishing multiple blog posts per day, and how does it affect content indexing?The "crawl budget" refers to the limit on how many new or updated links Google Search Console will process from your website each day. While you can publish an unlimited number of blogs on your own website (your "house"), Google has a quota, typically allowing you to submit around 10 links per day for indexing. This means that even if you publish 20 blogs in a day, only the first 10 submitted will likely be immediately logged and processed by Google's system within a 24-hour period. Each published post is logged with a precise date and time stamp (hours, minutes, seconds, milliseconds). Understanding the crawl budget is important for managing expectations regarding how quickly your new content will appear in search results and for strategically planning your publishing schedule if you aim for rapid indexing.Digital Marketing SEO Resources:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> Read SEO Articles>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need SEO Services?

Send us a textThe crypto industry has a storytelling problem. Despite its revolutionary potential, most crypto projects struggle to connect with mainstream audiences because they've created an insular world of jargon, acronyms, and narratives that actively exclude outsiders."I've been in a lot of different industries – social impact, investment, technology, healthcare – and I've never been in an industry where narrative mattered more than crypto," explains Stephany Zoo, Head of Ecosystem at Caladan and a veteran crypto marketer since 2014. Drawing from her experience across four continents, Stephany reveals how cultural contexts profoundly shape crypto adoption, from Vietnam's surprisingly high 30% adoption rate (driven by distrust in traditional financial products) to the interplay between regulatory environments in different regions.The disconnect between crypto projects and mainstream users runs deeper than many realize. While companies like Robinhood are successfully bringing their existing users into crypto, the reverse rarely happens. Crypto marketers have created barriers through excessive technical language and a focus on what makes crypto different rather than relatable. "So much of the storytelling we've seen recently positions crypto as this unique thing that's redoing or undoing what the financial world has done previously," Stephanie notes. "You can't have an entire industry that stands by itself."This marketing challenge extends to how founders approach growth. Too often, they chase vanity metrics – Twitter followers, conference appearances, impression counts – while neglecting the fundamentals of positioning, messaging, and conversion metrics that actually drive business. The result? Unsustainable hype cycles that quickly fade instead of building lasting value.For marketers navigating this space, Stephany offers practical wisdom: return to marketing basics like user segmentation and channel strategy, focus on clear messaging consistency across all platforms, and tell stories that connect crypto to everyday experiences rather than isolating it as something alien. As the industry matures and institutional adoption grows, communicating crypto's internal culture to the outside world responsibly becomes increasingly critical.Ready to build bridges instead of walls with your crypto marketing?

My first guest on Seven Million Bikes is JK Hobson. As a finalist in the 2018 Vietnam Comedy Competition JK is known by many in Saigon as a stand-up, but is a man of many talents. We had so much to talk about I've split this first episode into two parts.Growing up in New York, JK moved to LA with his “fairly well known” thrash-metal band, Crisis. After Crisis split and he returned to University, JK initially came to Vietnam on a study abroad program in 2015, returning in 2016 on a Fulbright Scholarship. He went on to co-found Saigon Funny People, regularly hosting open mic nights and performing stand-up comedy. JK now writes for City Pass Guide, Saigoneer and TaleCity, has appeared on Vietnamese TV AND teaches English. The main questions I'll be asking JK is ‘What do you not do? And where do you find the time?'Part 2Moving forward to 2015 when JK first came to Vietnam we talk about his life here, speaking Vietnamese and why he loves it here.

Send us a textThe marketing landscape is transforming rapidly, and leadership must evolve with it. That's the driving insight behind my exciting announcement today – my new book "The Future CMO" is almost ready to launch! After sharing keynote stages with Philip Kotler in Cairo and Dennis Yu in Portugal, I realized the message I've been developing over years was finally coming together in a powerful way.What started as a conversation with Mark Schaefer in July – "You're already doing the work, your book is halfway done" – has blossomed into a focused, actionable guide for modern marketing leaders. This isn't a lengthy theoretical tome; it's a sharp 90-minute read designed specifically for marketers, founders, and decision-makers navigating the complexities of AI, Web3, and the overwhelming technological noise we all face today."The Future CMO" explores how marketing leadership must evolve from strategist to integrator, from campaign thinker to system builder. I dive into critical themes of visibility, trust, and storytelling while making the case that tomorrow's most effective marketing leaders will guide their organizations not just with metrics, but with meaning. The e-book launches this September, followed by the paperback in October. If you'd like to be part of this journey – as an early reader, launch team member, or just someone who wants to grab the book when it's available, reach out to me via https://webdrie.net. The future of marketing starts with how we choose to show up, and I'd love for you to join me in exploring what that means for all of us.This episode was recorded via Descript on Sep 3, 2025. 

"Good podcasting is about generously communicating and showing up for your listener and being able to deliver them really good value. " - Mark SteadmanIf you're a podcaster, new or experienced, this podpast episode will change the way you approach your craft. This episode with Mark Steadman was an absolute masterclass in podcasting. His insights on putting the listener first have completely reshaped the way I think about crafting episodes. I've always believed in respecting the listener's time, but Mark took it to a whole new level—showing how everything from mic technique to episode titles plays a role in delivering a great experience.One of my biggest takeaways was how powerful it is to speak directly to one listener rather than addressing a broad audience. That subtle shift in language builds a stronger connection and trust. Also, his thoughts on sharpening the axe before starting—a lesson I've often ignored—really resonated. I tend to jump in headfirst, but Mark's advice on preparation is something I'll be applying moving forward.Key TakeawaysRespect the Listener's Time – Your audience is giving up their valuable time for you. Don't waste it with poor audio quality or irrelevant content. Put the Listener First – From your content to your marketing, everything should be designed with your audience in mind. Titles & Show Notes Matter – Your episode title and description should grab attention and be optimized for searchability. Speak to One Listener – Use singular language (“you” instead of “guys”) to build a stronger connection. Preparation Makes a Difference – Spending time planning your podcast (listener persona, content structure, etc.) will save you time and improve quality in the long run. Chapters & Timestamps02:00 - Why Everything is About the Listener – The key to a great podcast.07:00 - Respecting the Listener's Time – Why quality matters.10:00 - Speaking to One Listener – How language builds connection.19:00 - The Importance of Preparation – How planning saves time.26:00 - Creating Engaging Titles & Show Notes – How to make your episodes discoverable.37:00 - Final Thoughts & Takeaways – Wrapping up with key lessons. Send us a textBook a Discovery Call with me!

Ever buy a “miracle app” that promised to automate your business, write your copy, and maybe even walk the dog… only to have it end up collecting dust in a folder called Someday? Same here. That's why this week Conor and I are comparing notes on the AI tools that actually stuck. These are the ones we've folded into our real workflows, the tools saving us time and keeping us sane when the content calendar feels relentless.From editing podcasts into social clips to spinning up client portals in minutes, these five tools are pulling serious weight in our businesses. We talk about Descript's new AI B-roll, what feels different in ChatGPT 5, smart ways to chain prompts for images, why Notion + Notion AI is so versatile, how MidJourney's video option is sneaking into our thumbnails, and where Perplexity and NotebookLM fit into our research and SOP systems. If you've wondered which AI apps are worth your time, you'll find some solid answers here.Key TakeawaysDescript remains our editing hub: Upload the recording, use Find Clips for cold opens, and try the new AI-generated B-roll right in the editor. ChatGPT is our daily driver: We use it for planning, drafting, brainstorming, and research. The new 5.0 update makes it noticeably faster and more direct, which keeps our workflow moving smoothly.Prompt chaining beats giant prompts: Build images step-by-step—create the base, then layer in overlays, text, or tweaks for more consistent results. Notion + NotionAI: Spin up client portals, SOPs, and shared databases quickly. The Save to Notion clipper and mobile share sheet make it easy to stash articles and ideas on the fly. MidJourney's new video option: Great for animated thumbnails, email GIFs, or short loops. NotebookLM for SOPs and team queries: Upload docs or transcripts, then let teammates search only your materials for answers. Keeps systems tight.

In this episode of iCantCU, I'm finally back after a month and diving into the Ally Solos—new smart glasses from Envision designed specifically for blind and low-vision users. Unlike Ray-Ban or Oakley Metas, these aren't built for social media first. They won't shoot video at launch, but they'll capture photos and focus on accessibility features that actually matter to us. The presale had me tempted, and even though I held off because of past bad experiences with uncomfortable frames from other brands, I may still give them a try with their 30-day return policy. I also share some of the frustrations I've had with my Ray-Ban Metas—like constant notifications interrupting conversations, calls bouncing between devices, and unpredictable dictation. While the glasses can be fantastic when they work (like helping me confirm my Harrisburg train at 30th Street Station), those quirks make me eager to see if the Ally Solos can do better. Beyond tech, I talk about what's been keeping me busy: prepping for the NFB of Pennsylvania State Convention in November, handling a major website migration, attending the Mid-Atlantic Student Seminar, and even dealing with a broken cane. Plus, I fill you in on our upcoming scholarship raffle and ask your thoughts on whether sunglasses during video episodes would throw you off.

Send us a textDive into a revolutionary conversation with Kelwin Fernandes, co-founder and CEO of NILG AI, who shares a powerful vision for how artificial intelligence is fundamentally reshaping business strategy and entrepreneurship.Drawing from 15 years of AI expertise and his journey from deep research to successful entrepreneurship, Kelwin challenges conventional thinking about AI implementation. Rather than viewing AI as just another tool for automating tasks, he presents it as a catalyst for completely reimagining business models and decision-making processes."The most underestimated power of AI is reimagining a business model," Kelwin explains, painting a bold picture of a future where AI drives production costs toward zero, enabling radical new approaches to pricing and customer relationships. His provocative concept of consultants potentially paying clients for the opportunity to optimize their businesses illustrates just how dramatically AI could transform traditional business relationships.The conversation explores practical distinctions between superficial AI adoption driven by FOMO and strategic integration that transforms core business operations. You'll discover why focusing on decision-making rather than just automation yields the greatest business value, and how Kelwin's company applies the 10X Rule to marketing, achieving over 140 speaking events in a single year through strategic AI use.Perhaps most valuable is Kelwin's entrepreneurial wisdom: "First-time entrepreneurs focus on product, second-time entrepreneurs focus on distribution, third-time entrepreneurs focus on networking." This progression reveals why building both a strong personal brand and AI expertise creates powerful competitive advantages in today's business landscape.Whether you're an entrepreneur, marketer, or business leader interested in AI's transformative potential, this episode offers both strategic frameworks and practical examples for leveraging AI to create genuine business value.

“Everyday life in Saigon means navigating sugar in everything—from coffee to orange juice—and I can't have any of it.” – Jane HaMy guest today is Jane Ha, a researcher in behavioral science who has lived in Hanoi, the U.S., the U.K., and now Saigon. Jane's story is as much about resilience as it is about culture—living with diabetes in one of the sweetest food environments in the world, while also studying the consumer habits that shape what we all eat and drink.What struck me most is how her personal challenge with diabetes gave her a unique lens on Vietnam's rapid changes. She sees both the risks of a sugar-heavy culture and the opportunities in the rise of healthier, sugar-free alternatives. And she links it all to bigger shifts: from Gen Z's cocktail culture to the way Vietnamese consumers demand convenience, speed, and personalization.Jane also opened up about the culture shocks of living in Oklahoma and Ohio, where she learned what it really meant to be “different.” Returning to Vietnam, she realized Saigon allowed her to merge all the versions of herself—the East and the West, tradition and modernity—without fear of judgment.This conversation reminded me how food, identity, and culture are all connected. And how Vietnam, in all its complexity, forces us to constantly rethink how we live.Main Talking PointsLiving with diabetes in Vietnam's sugar-saturated food culture.How manufacturers and Gen Z are reshaping health trends.The psychology of Vietnamese shopping: from discounts to convenience.The cultural shift in drinking—from beer halls to cocktail bars.The boom-and-bust nature of Vietnamese trends: milk tea to Manuka honey.Culture shock in Oklahoma and Ohio, and lessons on race and identity.Finding freedom in Saigon as a bridge between East and West.Chapters & Timestamps02:05 | Life with diabetes in Vietnam: sugar everywhere.10:40 | Health awareness, sugar taxes, and new consumer trends.20:15 | Vietnamese shoppers: price-sensitive or value-driven?29:30 | Gen Z's changing drinking culture and the impact of zero-alcohol laws.41:00 | Cocktail bars, milk tea, and why some trends boom then bust.45:20 | From Hanoi to Oklahoma: culture shock and unexpected lessons."Send me a message!"This Season is sponsored by Premier Dental.Discover the potential of a confident and healthy smile with the excellent dental clinic in Ho Chi Minh Support the show

What happens when you're a dad of 3, working a full-time job, and still running not one but two side hustles? That's the question I put to my friend Matt Medeiros — fellow podcaster, WordPress veteran, and all-around content machine.We talk honestly about what it takes to juggle parenting, work, and multiple projects without burning out (or completely losing your mind). From managing sponsorship revenue to choosing the right tools, to figuring out when to reinvest vs. cash out, Matt shares what's working for him — and where he's still figuring it out.If you've ever wondered how to balance family life while chasing creative business ideas, you'll take away some real strategies (and a few good laughs).Wondering how you can manage your time to find the perfect balance? Take the Business Overwhelm Diagnostic.Top TakeawaysCommon threads make side hustles sustainable – keeping your work, projects, and interests connected makes context-switching easier and prevents burnout.Don't turn every hobby into a business – it's tempting, but some things are better left as hobbies so you can actually enjoy them.Content creation is career insurance – podcasting, writing, or videos not only generate side income but also build a portfolio that makes you more valuable in the job market.The right tools save hours – Riverside, Descript, and Opus Clips help streamline production, while letting him focus on strategy instead of getting lost in the weeds.Show NotesGravity FormsThe WP MinuteThe Podcast SetupRSS.com DescriptRiversideOpus ClipsKit.com (formerly ConvertKit)GhostWhat do you think?

Send us a textThe wall between Web3 and mainstream gaming is finally crumbling, and Joana Barros is helping to tear it down brick by brick. As Marketing Director at My Neighbor Alice, she's spearheading a revolution in how blockchain games approach player onboarding – with remarkable results.Joana's journey to this role is fascinating. After managing the Xbox brand at Microsoft despite having no gaming background, she discovered how deeply passion drives the gaming industry. "You are working with how people spend their free time," she explains, "and that's a lot of passion." This insight would later inform her approach to Web3 gaming marketing after a surprising pivot into blockchain in late 2020.When faced with the challenge of reaching one million players for My Neighbor Alice, Joana recognized the fundamental problem: entry barriers. While the game had built a dedicated Web3-native community since winning Binance Project of the Year in 2021, that audience alone couldn't sustain growth. Her team implemented three critical changes: browser-based gameplay (no downloads), one-click play access, and most crucially, Web3Auth – allowing account creation with just an email, generating wallets invisibly in the background.The results speak for themselves – 100,000 accounts created in less than two months after their June 2023 launch. Their marketing approach carefully balanced dual audiences, using X (Twitter) to engage their crypto-savvy base while focusing platforms like Instagram and TikTok purely on gameplay experiences. Strategic partnerships with KOLs and gaming guilds, especially in receptive Asian markets, further amplified their reach.Joanna's vision extends beyond immediate growth. She believes the distinction between Web3 and traditional games will eventually disappear: "It doesn't matter if we're a Web3 game or Web2 or mobile if the experience is good enough." This philosophy – that technology should serve player experience, not define it – represents the future path for blockchain gaming's mainstream adoption.Ready to see how blockchain can enhance rather than complicate your gaming experience? Visit My Neighbor Alice today and discover a world where owning your digital assets feels as natural as playing the game itself.This episode was recorded through a Descript call on August 8, 2025.

“I felt like my Vietnamese froze at the level of a 17-year-old.” – Mai DoanMy guest today is Mai Doan, who left Vietnam at just 17 to study in Oregon, later studied in France, built a career in the U.S., and then made the choice to return home. Her story was full of courage and honesty. She talked about cultural shocks, stereotypes, and the challenges of returning to Vietnam after so many years abroad.What stood out to me most was how she found meaning in conservation work, even though her background was in business and law. She reminded me that purpose often comes when we step outside the path we thought we should follow.This episode made me reflect on how identity changes when we live abroad, and how coming home can sometimes feel even harder than leaving. Mai's journey is a powerful reminder that development and tradition don't have to be opposites, and that protecting nature is also protecting our culture.Main Talking PointsLeaving Vietnam at 17 and the cultural shocks of living in small-town America.Struggling with English and adapting through the support of international friendships.Becoming an “unofficial ambassador” to correct stereotypes about Vietnam.Returning home and facing reverse culture shock, especially around language and gender expectations.Finding purpose in conservation, discovering Vietnam's biodiversity, and balancing development with preservation.Chapters and Timestamps02:31 | Cultural shock in Oregon: language struggles, new friendships, and learning resilience.10:46 | Confronting stereotypes about Vietnam and becoming an “unofficial ambassador.”17:21 | Returning to Vietnam: reverse culture shock, family expectations, and studying law.25:51 | From corporate career to conservation: discovering Vietnam's hidden biodiversity.35:10 | Vietnam at a crossroads: balancing rapid development with cultural and natural preservation.44:01 | Reflections on being a bridge between cultures and looking ahead."Send me a message!"This Season is sponsored by Premier Dental.Discover the potential of a confident and healthy smile with the excellent dental clinic in Ho Chi Minh Support the show

Send us a textVikram R Singh takes us on a journey from his unexpected entrepreneurial beginnings to building Antier, a blockchain powerhouse with 700+ team members that has weathered multiple market cycles through unwavering vision and purpose.What draws someone to blockchain beyond the hype? For Vikram, it was the revelation that this technology could create trust and accountability within systems themselves, reducing intermediaries and putting control back in people's hands. This vision guided Antier through three bear markets while maintaining impressive growth, proving that sustainable success comes from solving real problems rather than chasing trends.Vikram shares powerful insights about India's position as a Web3 talent hub, needing only regulatory clarity and better storytelling to claim its place as the global Web3 capital. His perspective on the relationship between blockchain and AI is particularly enlightening—"Blockchain is trust, AI is intelligence"—positioning these technologies as complementary forces rather than competitors in our digital future.For founders and marketers, Vikram offers practical wisdom: focus on the problem you're solving, not your technology, ensure your narrative answers "why now, why you, and why should I care" and remember that people don't adopt technology, they adopt stories that reflect their needs. His Co-Pilot Program demonstrates how partnerships built on equal risk/reward and aligned energies can accelerate innovation in the Web3 space.Perhaps most surprising is Vikram's revelation about what truly transformed his business after years of perfecting delivery, sales, and management: it was marketing that ultimately enabled exponential growth. This lesson holds particular value during market downturns, when maintaining visibility can position companies for success when conditions improve.This episode was recorded through a Descript call on July 7, 2025.

In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of one of the most personally meaningful creations in my Higher Self Project — my Soul Songs — and share the full story behind the track The Money Will Come When I'm Aligned. The inspiration for this episode all started with an unexpected email from a listener, Nate Martin, who stumbled onto my YouTube channel at just the right moment. He had been about to unsubscribe… until he saw my channel trailer, This Is Not a Business. This Is Devotion. Something about that message pulled him into my Soul Songs playlist. He ended up listening to The Money Will Come When I'm Aligned ten times in a row, found my albums on Spotify, and sent me a note that reminded me exactly why I create. From there, I open up about how my Soul Songs are born: the way ideas from books, conversations, and spiritual insights turn into lyrics, how I collaborate with ChatGPT to refine them, and how Suno's AI music generation brings them to life in a way that still surprises me. I talk about the vulnerability of publishing them — from hand-syncing lyrics in Descript to posting on TikTok, YouTube, and Facebook — and what it felt like to release them into the world without any guarantee of how they'd be received. Along the way, I share a powerful teaching from Abraham Hicks on alignment, vibration, and inspiration, along with the specific notes I took while listening. I also reflect on how this teaching ties directly into my own creative process, the deeper role of alignment in every area of life, and why I've let go of performing or creating for external validation. Finally, you'll hear the full lyrics of The Money Will Come When I'm Aligned and the heart behind each line — an anthem for creating from a place of joy, sufficiency, and trust that everything you need will arrive in perfect timing. If you've ever wondered how to live and create from your deepest alignment… if you've questioned whether money can truly flow without grind or hustle… or if you simply want to hear the story behind one of my most personal pieces of art, this episode is for you. The Path Forward: Your alignment is the creator. Your inspired action is the expression. Listen in and let this story invite you to create from the same place.

The Money Will Come When I'm Aligned They say that wealth comes when you grind But something whispers in my mind That worth is not a race or task It rises from the soul unmasked The world rewards the ones who burn But what if there's another turn? Where ease and clarity belong And truth itself becomes the song The money comes when I'm aligned Not from the chase, but from the flow When joy is real and peace is near The stream of life makes all things clear It's not the grind that makes me rise It's focus felt behind closed eyes The world may shout, but I find The money comes when I'm alignedWho priced the stars or charged the sky? Who bought the sun when it rose high? This earth was paid with none but grace No hands, no trade, just sacred space And yet we think we must exchange Our worth for coins, our dreams for chains But true value flows from inner fire Not from the crowd, not from the buyerThe power's not in what I do But how I see the world as true The work I love, the steps I take Are just the ripples that I make It's thought that builds the inner flame It's focus first, then form and name The mind aligned, reality complies Creation dances where truth flies I thought I wanted cash and fame A bigger life, a louder name But now I see what's underneath The joy to breathe, the love beneath I live to feel the pulse of grace To walk with light, to move with pace To shine, to laugh, to lift, to see Alignment is what's wanting me The money comes when I'm aligned. Not from the chase, but from the flow. When joy is real and peace is near, The stream of life makes all things clear. It's not the grind that makes me rise, It's focus felt behind closed eyes. The world may shout, but I find: The money comes when I'm aligned. They mock, “You can't just sit and believe” But stillness isn't make-believe For when I plug into life's stream I move like lightning through a dream Inspired hands, aligned with fire Each step is charged with soul's desire I'm not inactive. I'm alive This sacred motion is why I thrive You can find my Soul Songs Volumes 1 and 2 on Apple Music & Spotify.

Step into the chilling unknown with The Mortals as host Nathan Morris uncovers two obscure, true survival stories that will leave you questioning forces beyond our grasp. In "Whispers of Fate," journey to the frozen tundra of Labrador, Canada, where a young hunter battles a deadly blizzard guided by a mysterious voice, and to the remote jungles of Papua New Guinea, where a mother survives a catastrophic landslide with unexplainable help. These aren't just escapes from death—they're encounters with something greater, hinting at a purpose we can't fully understand.

Filler words. We all know them, we all use them, and let's be real, they're annoying. You might think it's just you fumbling through a sentence with a bunch of ‘uhs' and ‘ums', but guess what? We're all in the same boat, paddling away from clarity and straight into the sea of confusion.In this episode, I dig into the strategies to kick those pesky crutch words to the curb. We chat about how you can sound smarter (yes, you heard that right) by practicing your communication skills and being more aware of what's coming out of your mouth. With tips ranging from joining a Toastmasters club to simply taking a pause instead of filling the space with ‘you knows,' we're here to help you become the smooth-talking superstar you were meant to be. So let's ditch the filler words together and find out how to express ourselves without sounding like we're stuck in a loop of hesitation!What Stays and What Goes?For me, any time I can make myself or a guest sound smarter I will do it. For me, I go for the low hanging fruit. This is when um someone just has um a standalone um all by itself. You can easily highlight it and press delete. The ums I leave alone are those that run into another word. Tool like Descript and Riverside have built in tools to remover filler words. Be careful with these as they can be a bit aggressive. A good edit is one that doesn't sound like an edit was made. This is why I don't obsess over every single filler words because we all occasionally say "um." It becomes an issue when people lose sight of what you're saying because they are distracted by how you are saying it.Takeaways: Filler words are the annoying little gremlins of speech we all battle with, and they're everywhere. Practicing with Toastmasters is like getting a gym membership for your speaking skills, minus the sweat. Confidence is key; the more prepared you are, the less you sound like a crutch-word factory. Taking pauses instead of using filler words is like giving your brain time to catch up with your mouth, which is crucial. Editing your recordings helps you become painfully aware of those pesky fillers, so you can kick them to the curb. Using outlines and scripts can save you from sounding like you're making it up as you go, and trust me, that's a lifesaver!
