Brandon Lang - Lang Lighting and Decor On a Knowing What People Want: "And people like quick. They want their stuff done yesterday." The evolution of how a business came to be and grow is always interesting. With Brandon Lang, of Lang's Lighting and Decor, he started making elaborate haunted houses for the neighborhood and now runs a successful lighting and decor business. Brandon shares how an epic backyard haunted house for Halloween—built with his brother Dustin, a pile of recycled cardboard, and a garage full of ambition—sparked their passion for decorating and community connection. After their mega-popular haunted house was shut down for safety reasons, the brothers channeled their creative energy into a new business: helping families transform their homes with professional-grade Christmas and landscape lighting. Listen as Brandon pulls back the curtain on launching their company out of their dad's garage, facing the countless challenges of growth (from tangled bins of holiday lights to wrangling their first employees), and figuring out how to scale quality work without losing the personal touch. If you've ever wondered what goes into making neighborhoods dazzle during the holidays—or dreamed of turning your favorite hobby into a full-time pursuit—this episode will leave you inspired, entertained, and maybe ready to up your own lighting game.

Tammy Cho - Path to the Heart On a Question Every Entrepreneur Should Routinely Ask Themselves: "Where are you not allowing yourself to be yourself, your authentic self?" We push and we grind and we hustle and we push some more.  As entrepreneurs we do all of this in the name of success, freedom, happiness and perhaps a bit of stubborn ego.  Pushing this hard can sometimes put us in a position of forgetting who we truly are.  Even forgetting what we really want out of life and our business. Without realizing, or remembering what we are pushing for can lead to less success than we are capable of achieving, and possibly even worse, often in the form of health and wellness issues. Tammy Cho, founder of Path to the Heart, went down this path and realized it.  She got up, changed course and now helps others explore the powerful intersection of personal healing and authentic leadership. Tammy shares her remarkable transition from working as a high-achieving nurse—who ultimately faced burnout and a life-changing panic attack—to creating a unique business dedicated to helping high achievers reconnect with their authentic selves. We'll hear how her personal story of emotional struggle, navigating therapy, mastering NLP, and discovering energy work and psychosomatic therapy inspired her mission to serve entrepreneurs searching for more meaning and alignment in both their personal and professional lives. Tammy discusses the importance of self-awareness, energy leadership, and recognizing the masks many of us wear as business owners. Tammy opens up about her face and body analysis work, explaining how our physical features can reveal invisible blocks to our potential, and how aligning our mind, heart, and body can amplify our presence and leadership in any room. Listen as Tammy shares some powerful insights that will have you taking a moment to think about what you want, so you can focus on achieving exactly that. Enjoy!

Like, what what is that? It's when they're actually aligned in their mind and their heart and their soul and their will. Like, when you are in alignment in all these places, that's when your energy essence, you're leading the room by that. And it really doesn't matter what strategy, what words you're using because you're in alignment. It's just like you're in conviction.

Jose Berlanga - Experienced Entrepreneur On the Skills to be a Successful Entrepreneur: "You have to be a little bit crazy, a little bit of a gambler, a little bit of a dreamer." Advice for an entrepreneur from an experienced business owner with years of dealing with the ups and downs of multiple businesses is invaluable.  The simple fact is that we do not know it all, and sometimes a story from someone that has lived to tell a tale is a great example, or warning, for us. Jose Berlanga, the entrepreneurial force behind many businesses, from Italian Coffee Shops, to real estate investing. Jose opens up about his journey from launching his first business at just 17 years old in the oil and gas industry, to navigating the highs and lows of real estate development with his brother as a partner. Together, they discuss the realities of entrepreneurship—shedding light on the risks, sacrifices, and the unexpected learning curves that come with building businesses from the ground up. Jose also shares insights from his new books, including “The Business of Home Building,” “Dirt Rich,” and “Quantum Entrepreneurship,” each offering a candid look at what it truly takes to run successful companies and develop the entrepreneurial mindset. You will get an inside look at the importance of choosing the right partners, protecting your business during industry downturns, and why understanding your personal strengths (and weaknesses) are just as critical as managing cash flow. Listen as Jose shares some of his behind-the-scenes struggles and triumphs of business ownership, his hard-earned wisdom and actionable advice straight from someone who's lived—and survived—it all.

And instead of putting some money aside, paying paying off some debt, consolidating our operation, we continue to grow and we continue to leverage and expand recklessly.

Beth Viney - Czar's Promise On Getting Bad News About Your Beloved Pet: "Caring for Pets with Cancer: It's kinda like you get a glazed look over your face, your your throat sinks down into your stomach, and you have a thousand questions and not a lot of answers." Pets hold a special place in our hearts.  They lift us up when we're down and lift us even higher when we're doing alright.  They show us what is really important: food, water, naps, a few snuggles and maybe scratching that one spot that makes your leg shake for joy. But pets are living, breathing and loving creatures and living creatures can get sick, just like us.  This is especially challenging with a pet that doesn't have a great way of expressing all that they are feeling in regards to their health. Beth Viney is the founder of Czar's Promise, a non-profit that helps pet owners navigate the options when they find out their pet has cancer.  This includes information and resources to help you as a pet owner. Listen as Beth explains how you can help you pet, before they have cancer and just in case they are diagnosed with cancer.  She shares her wisdom, passion and drive and is doing all she can to make our incredible pets as happy, healthy and helpful as possible.

They can hide discomfort very well, through their nature. Some dogs more than others, as well as cats. And for the most part, cancer isn't diagnosed until, okay, all of a sudden it's there.

Beth Vinny [00:01:00]: Yep. That's right. James Kademan [00:01:01]: Tell me what is Czars response? Beth Vinny [00:01:03]: So if you have ever known anybody, human or a pet, that has been diagnosed with cancer, that's what we focus on. Alright. And really our we have two main areas of mission. And one that we do every single day is we work with families throughout Wisconsin and even some other states that come to Madison, Wisconsin for veterinary oncology Czars. Because their pet, their dog or cat has been diagnosed with cancer. And what we do is we help The navigate through that journey. Because when you first hear the words, your dog or your cat has cancer, it's kinda like you get a glazed look over your face, your your throat sinks down into your stomach, and you have a thousand questions and not a lot of answers.

Alexander Harmsen - Portfolio Pilot On Playing the Game: "How do we set a level playing field so that we negate the effects of all these high frequency traders?" Investing strategies can be challenging.  Typically it is you either trying to beat or keep up with the market, or you paying someone that vaguely promises to beat or keep up with the market.  You almost need a computer to help you crunch all of the numbers. Alexander Harmsen, cofounder of Portfolio Pilot, has had some successful exits and wanted to find places to invest.  But the market can be daunting, and all of the so-called pros didn't seem to be all that talented, at least as far as offering well calculated advice.  When you meet a financial planner that isn't dominating in the financial field, what are they actually offering you? So Alex helped build Portfolio Pilot. PortfolioPilot.com is a platform that uses AI to look at all of the numbers you have, what you want, where you're going and calculates, in the fancy way AI is known for, finally pumping out some investment action step suggestions for you.  Ultimately you decide, but it gives you well calculated advice. If you've ever wondered if you should buy or sell a certain investment product, using AI to help figure out all, or most, of the variables can help you choose what to do and when. Alexander shares insights on how PortfolioPilot empowers DIY investors by providing a comprehensive view of their financial landscape and offering personalized, automated advice without taking control. With over 30,000 users and $30 billion in assets on their platform, PortfolioPilot is changing the game by offering tailored financial recommendations based on a user's age, net worth, and risk preference. Listen as Alex illustrates the shortfalls of other options, and the cost of ignoring the opportunity to help get your money to work for you. Enjoy!

Matt Theriault - Epic Real Estate Investing On Financing Options: "When you get into the world of real estate investing, you start to see, wow, there's other ways to acquire property, and there's all these different types of property. It's not just saving up a down payment, going to a bank, jumping through all their hoops and going that route as most people use to buy their own primary residence." Trading time for money is what many of us have been taught is the well-travelled road to wealth.  I'd argue it is the road to income, but not wealth.  True wealth is when you receive money in exchange for things that do not necessarily take your time. Matt Theriault, the Epic Real Estate Investor, podcaster and real estate coach explains how he made the transition from the record industry and evolved his career into real estate. Matt details the ups and downs of building his real estate empire and details some of the advantages of choosing real estate as a profitable investment. Listen as Matt details some of the books that have inspired him, as well as a few things he has learned that helped him build wealth with real estate. Enjoy!

So I had just come from the music business. I thought wealthy was you just meant you had a lot of money. And his definition was, no. You have enough money coming in each month to cover your bills, and that money that's coming in isn't necessarily tied directly to your efforts.

So let's just start out with what is Epic Real Estate.

And then we have another portion of it that my wife runs where she actually does the investing for them. So she does all the heavy lifting. So some people wanna be hands In. Some people wanna be hands Draw. But, pretty much our client wants real estate so they can retire early. James Kademan [00:01:23]: Nice. Yeah.

Stephen Lange - Lange's Painting On Working With a Business Partner: "Once we understood what our defined roles were, we were able to stay in our own lanes." So you want to start a painting business.  But where do you start?  Just about anyone can grab a truck, a bucket, brush and ladder and call themselves a painter.  But what if you want to actually grow your painting business?

In this replay from May of 2022, John interviews Jonah Oliver (@jonah_oliver1) one of Australia's leading performance psychologists. Combining his training in sport psychology and neuroscience, Jonah brings a unique, simple and effective approach to facilitating peak performance.

He specializes in the identification, development and mentorship of leaders within the business world, integrating his experience in both sport and business. Jonah is renowned for his ability to present complex psychological theory in readily accessible ways, with his energetic and engaging presenting style. You will see that in our conversation today, as we cover a range of topics including: Taking positive action instead of worrying about positive thought Building capacity to embrace fear, pressure and stress Finding your why instead of worrying about motivation How pressure, stress and fear are the price of admission Normalizing the human experience Get ready to take some notes, and learn more at www.JonahOliver.com PUT IN YOUR BULK BOOK ORDERS FOR OUR BESTSELLING BOOKS! Programs such as UNC soccer and lacrosse, Syracuse lacrosse, Stanford Lacrosse, Middlebury College, Colby College, Rutgers University, and many other champions are using THE CHAMPION TEAMMATE book with their athletes.

Action Jackson - Jackson's Yard Care On the Importance of Taking a Step Back to Take Leaps Forward: "I had to take a break to find myself. Right? I had to do some soul digging and figure out what I'm on this earth to do." In my experience, there are two honest ways almost guaranteeing you can practically print money: 1) Clean buildings, like houses, or 2) Take care of lawns.  Because dirt and grass don't care how they economy is going and people need help keeping things tidy and clipped. Action Jackson started Jackson's Yard Care and took his business to another level.  He lays out how he got started, some of the challenges and, most importantly, having the right frame of mind to make miracles happen. On top of building his yard care empire, Action took things a step, or leap, further by starting a training program for those that want to be in the yard care business.  He has systematized this training and in the very first year that he started this, he gave 19 people new employment and made three entrepreneurs.  The man is a business building machine that helps others grow as well. Listen as Action Jackson explains how he started his yard care business, from the first employee, to the bigger and bigger warehouses and onward into training to help others.  This show will get you jazzed to get your business going.

This week we welcome Meredith Civico to the podcast, a coach who worked with Jerry as a 2005 national champion player at Maryland and whose program currently works with John. She enters her 14th season at the helm of the Rutgers field hockey program in the fall of 2025. She has won 135 games in that time, reaching at least nine wins in 10 different seasons and leading the team to three NCAA Tournament appearances and the 2021 Big Ten Tournament Title. Since Meredith and John began working together in 2018, the Knights have 43 wins over Top 20 teams, including 3 top 10 wins in 2024. The Knights finished the 2024 season ranked 14 in RPI. Civico guided the team to its first NCAA Tournament in 32 years in 2018, then in 2021 led the team back to the NCAA Tournament where it captured the team's first NCAA Tournament victory in 35 years. The team also captured the 2021 Big Ten Tournament Title, becoming the first program at Rutgers to win the Big Ten Tournament in any sport. In 2023, Rutgers returned to the NCAA Tournament for the third time in the past six years. Civico has been responsible for the two highest single-season win totals in program history (19 in 2021 and 16 in 2023). Prior to 2018, RU had just two NCAA appearances, and now under Civico, RU has gone three times.  As a player, Civico played a year at Boston University and three at University of Maryland, helping the Terrapins advance to the NCAA Final Four for three-straight seasons, including the 2005 ACC title and the 2005 NCAA National Championship. Civico was a member of the NFHCA/Styx Academic All-American team in 2003 and earned a spot on the ACC Honor Roll during the 2003-04 and 2004-05 campaigns. She was also a 4 year member of the US National Team for Indoor Hockey. On this incredible episode we discuss the role of love in coaching, valuing your players like they are your own kids, being demanding through love, petting the dragons, and taking your core values "from the Wall to the Ball." We also discuss the importance of getting your entire roster bought in, and getting players closer to the truth when it comes to their personal narrative. Take some notes on this one!

And he was even more excited when Head Coach Rob Dow and Associate Head Coach Brad Cole agreed to join him on the podcast.  2024 was Head Coach Rob Dow's 8th as Head Coach and 13th overall at Vermont, and it was a doozy, winning his second America East Championship and oh yeah, the 2024 NCAA Championship in thrilling fashion. In eight seasons at the helm, Dow has accumulated a 95-40 record, producing a winning record in each season since taking over in 2017. The Catamounts have finished in the America East top two in six of his seven seasons, including two regular season titles and two tournament titles, and 4 straight NCAA appearances. Prior to Vermont Dow was the asst. coach at Southern New Hampshire and head coach at Dean College, helping his teams achieve tremendous success. In our podcast today, we talk with Rob and Brad and break down the program they have built and their keys to success this season. We also discuss the thrilling Final 4 and NCAA tourney run, and how that success was built many months prior through love, vulnerability, and the relentless pursuit of championship behaviors. This is a remarkable story of a 15 year overnight success, and success leaves clues.

This podcast would not exist, the Changing the Game Project would not exist, if it were not for Joe Ehrmann.

It validated for me that there was more to coaching than Xs and Os, and that I wanted to be a “transformational coach, and not a transactional one.”  This episode is everything I hoped it would be, as the wisdom Joe and Jody share is incredible. Some highlights include: 8 mins: the four-part system that defines the role of sports in schools 9 mins: the difference between performance character and moral character, and how coaches can teach it 17 mins: to be a better coach, you have to be a better you 24 mins: how sports is not meeting the fundamental needs of student-athletes anymore 28 mins: what are the moral and performance values that define your coaching why 35 mins: how to show every child that you value him or her 43 mins: the four most powerful questions a coach must ask 54 mins: final words of wisdom from Jody and Joe PUT IN YOUR BULK BOOK ORDERS FOR OUR BESTSELLING BOOKS! Programs such as UNC soccer and lacrosse, Syracuse lacrosse, Stanford Lacrosse, Middlebury College, Colby College, Rutgers University, and many other champions are using THE CHAMPION TEAMMATE book with their athletes.

In our first season of the podcast, we interviewed author Michael Zigarelli, who wrote  a book called The Messiah Method: The 7 Disciplines of the Winningest College Soccer Program in America. The book outlined the tremendous success of Messiah College soccer, where between 2000 and 2010 the mens and women's teams had won 11 national titles and been to 17 Final Fours between them. Ever since then, we have wanted to bring onto the podcast the architect of that dynasty Dave Brandt. Today we get to do that. In 24 seasons as a college head coach, including stints at Messiah, the US Naval Academy, Hope College and Bucknell, Dave Brandt has won over 360 games. In 12 years at Messiah, his teams compiled a 246-25-14 (.888) record, won six Division III national championships and made eight Final Four appearances. Brandt was a four-time National Coach of the Year honoree at Messiah, and five of his student-athletes earned National Player of the Year honors. He then moved on to the Naval Academy where he turned around a program and won the Patriot League as the first undefeated, untied conference champion in league history. After a short stint in professional soccer with the Pittsburg Riverhounds, he returned to college coaching at Hope College in MI where he again turned around a losing program and led them to an NCAA appearance and conference championship. This past Fall he led Bucknell to the Patriot League title and an NCAA tournament bid. In our chat today, Dave unpacks the core principles of all the winning programs he has built, how passion and intentionality drive his programs, the secrets to having standards not rules, the value of love in your coaching, and so much more. You will want a notebook for this one!
