In this episode, we dive into the making of Wes Corbett's new album Drift. The inspirations behind the music, the collaborators who brought it to life, and insights into the recording process. We listen to a couple of my favorite tracks from the album! We chat about musical influences like Car Talk, Earl Scruggs, and Béla Fleck, and reflect on his upbringing on the West Coast. He shares the subtle complexities of performing with the Sam Bush Band and offers a thoughtful look at his approach to the banjo and composition. And of course, we settle the age-old debate: how do you pronounce “salmon”? (I have my own theories.) Plus, we test his knowledge on the life cycle of salmon—you might be surprised by what he knows.   www.wescorbett.bandcamp.com www.wescorbett.com www.hilaryhawkemusic.com

If you're like most school administrators, this is the time of year that we, without even realizing it, are already starting to drift ever so slightly from the resolutions and plans we made at the beginning of the school year. We're not off track exactly, but things have started to slip a little. And, we're not too worried yet, because after all, it's only October.  Which is exactly why October is such a dangerous month. It's early enough in the school year where we still feel like we have time to meet our goals so we're often lulled into a false sense of complacency. But what we don't realize is that it is the work we do now that determines whether we will actually meet our goals this school year.  So on today's episode, I'm going to share with you 5 simple shifts you need to make now to keep you from drifting away from your plans and goals and finding yourself off course in January. Take these simple steps and you can get refocused, make real progress before the holidays, and set yourself up for true success this school year #LikeABuilder. 

In this episode of Inside Personal Growth, host Greg Voisen welcomes Chris Robinson, leadership speaker, executive coach, and Executive VP at Maxwell Leadership. Chris joins us to discuss his new book, From Drift to Drive: A High Achiever's Guide to Breaking the Chains of Complacency. Chris shares his personal story of setbacks, resilience, and transformation, and introduces a seven-step framework that helps high achievers avoid the subtle trap of complacency. Far from laziness, complacency often creeps in after success, when leaders start coasting on past achievements. Chris shows us how to reignite purpose, move from routine to momentum, and shift from goal-oriented living to growth-oriented significance. This conversation is packed with powerful stories, practical strategies, and actionable habits—including Chris's five daily questions that can keep you intentional, focused, and growth-driven.

Matt Bontrager, founder of TrueBooks, opens up about his journey from UNLV graduate to headlining a successful accounting firm projected to pull in $4 million this year. We chat about how networking, often overshadowed by academic achievements, became the cornerstone of Matt's career leap—from landing that crucial job at Deloitte to building a specialized business for real estate investors. We uncover how his early bonds and fraternity experiences provided professional leverage, illustrating how pivotal connections can be in shaping one's career path.   Transitioning from a stable W2 job to launching an innovative accounting firm didn't happen overnight. Matt shares the strategic risks and decisions that propelled TrueBooks into a thriving enterprise, highlighting the significance of complementary skills in partnerships. His collaboration with Ryan Pineda, leveraging Ryan's sales prowess, was instrumental in scaling the business. We explore the nuances of maintaining quality amid rapid growth and nurturing company culture, especially in a remote setup, while reflecting on the challenges and victories of scaling a business amid an evolving economic landscape.   As we wrap up, the conversation shifts to balancing personal and professional brands, especially in today's digitally charged world. Matt entertains us with insights on keeping accounting engaging and authentic, and how personality differences can affect client relationships. We also tackle the complex world of real estate tax strategies, revealing how savvy tax planning can turn potential pitfalls into financial victories for investors. With a nod to future aspirations for TrueBooks, Matt candidly shares his thoughts on navigating business partnerships and the impacts of potential legislative changes on tax services.   CHAPTERS    (00:00) - Escaping the Drift (07:29) - Growing a Successful Accounting Firm (13:01) - Building a Strong Company Culture (20:27) - Navigating Personality Differences in Business (31:09) - Balancing Personal and Professional Brand (34:23) - Real Estate Tax Strategies for Investors (39:34) - Strategic Business Planning for Future Success (48:29) - Show Appreciation and Engagement  

Elias Torres has been building AI systems since 1999, from chatbots at IBM to co-founding Drift and now Agency. He believes businesses are caught in an expectation mismatch—demanding AI while rejecting it due to imperfection anxiety. Drawing from his experience scaling HubSpot, Elias explains why human-led customer experience doesn't scale and how Agency is building AI-first solutions that work autonomously. His contrarian approach focuses on the back-end customer experience rather than front-end AI SDRs, aiming to “deprogram the entire business world” from inefficient human-dependent processes.

Drift to sleep in the charming village of Camden, Maine. If you're looking for an autumn-inspired, cottagecore escape, this sleepy tale is for you. A relaxing stroll through the village and a soothing kayak ride through the bay bring you to the shores of the Autumn Cottage.Partake in a healing ritual, letting go and casting your wishes on a fallen leaf that drifts across the water. Then, return to the cottage where apples and baking spices simmer on the stove, a fire roars in the hearth, and the coziness of fall embraces you with the gentle sounds of lapping waves. It's time to dream away.Original Script, Narration, Music, Sound Design, and Production by Michelle Hotaling, Dreamaway Visions LLC 2025 All Rights ReservedMentions: Storms, Nostalgia, Pets, Food, LGBTQ+, SwimmingYOUTUBE: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/michellessanctuary/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠INSTAGRAM: ⁠https://instagram.com/michellessanctuary/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FACEBOOK:⁠https://www.facebook.com/michellessanctuary/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email Michelle: ⁠michellessanctuary@gmail.com⁠If you would like to support this channel:⁠https://www.buymeacoffee.com/michsanctuary⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.paypal.me/michellessanctuary⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.venmo.com/michellehotaling⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check out my new podcast, Meditation Tides, for guided meditations and let the tides of your breath bring the tranquility you deserve. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/meditationtides/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Michelle's Sanctuary is a place where you may enjoy high quality relaxing stories for sleep and guided sleep meditations completely FREE with a focus on mental vacations, sleep hypnosis, manifestations, and using your imagination to enjoy relaxing adventures before bedtime.
