In a world obsessed with hacks and mindset quotes, Sahil breaks down what actually builds momentum — consistent execution.Doug and Sahil explore how founders can use AI tools to automate busywork without losing the human edge, and why showing up every day — even when no one's watching — still beats every algorithm.

It rewards disciplined operators, not dreamers.* Growth comes from doing the boring work daily: follow-ups, systems, outreach.* Small, repeated actions compound into momentum and credibility.* The secret isn't working harder — it's working steadier.Memorable lines* “You don't need motivation — you need momentum.”* “AI won't save your business if you don't show up for it.”* “Consistency compounds — that's how empires are built.”* “Do the small things daily; the big results take care of themselves.”GuestSahil Patel — Entrepreneur and growth strategist helping founders scale through systems, accountability, and AI-powered efficiency.

What drives you? What narrative are you playing out over and over again? Do you know your patterns and how they play out?Knowing your driving force helps you to identify who you best serve and how to show up in your life and business, but knowing that you can always choose to change this narrative is the ultimate result driver.Which begs the question… What happens if we choose to change? What is possible for us on the other side of willingness to evolve beyond the current timeline?

When you reclaim your power, align your mindset, and use your money as a tool for purpose, you can begin living the life you love. Starting today! About Scarlett:Scarlett, aka The Biz Hippie, helps coaches master money and own their worth so they can be fully supported by the work they love! Using a combination of tangible money management strategies and a variety of powerful coaching techniques, Scarlett helps her clients transform their mindset and relationship to money and strategically make their vision happen.Scarlett didn't always live life this way. At the age of 18, Scarlett had already begun her professional journey and was managing restaurants and pursuing a degree in Business Management, Accounting, and Finance. Her life was all business all the time, despite having horrible relationships (with both people and money), struggles with depression, head-to-toe eczema, and frequent migraines. It took a cannabis-induced near-death experience to shake her to her core and start a slow crawl from rock bottom.Scarlett swung her pendulum from full business mode to total hippie; becoming a life coach, yoga instructor, and reiki practitioner. It was when a coach friend of hers was struggling with money that she was inspired to bring together her experience, skills, and degree to support her!! This was the genesis of Empowered Abundance, a program that helps coaches and business leaders transition into their next level of abundance with all the tools they need to make conscious and aligned decisions.Scarlett is a certified coach through the World Coach Institute and a Level 2 Enlifted Coach. On a personal level, she is a total hippie and loves spending time barefoot outside, vibing with her family in drum circles, and using plant medicine in the jungle.Website: https://thebizhippie.comFree 30 Minute Connection Call: https://thebizhippie.com/activationLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/scarlett-stanhopeFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/scarlett.stanhope/-----If you're struggling, consider therapy with our sponsor, BetterHelp.Visit https://betterhelp.com/candicesnyder for a 10% discount on your first month of therapy.*This is a paid promotionIf you are in the United States and in crisis, or any other person may be in danger -Suicide & Crisis Lifeline Dial 988-----Connect with Candice Snyder!Website: https://www.podpage.com/passion-purpose-and-possibilities-1/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/candicebsnyder?_rdrPassion, Purpose, and Possibilities Community Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/passionpurposeandpossibilitiescommunity/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/passionpurposepossibilities/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/candicesnyder/Shop For A Cause With Gifts That Give Back to Nonprofits: https://thekindnesscause.com/Fall In Love With Artists And Experience Joy And Calm: https://www.youtube.com/@movenartrelaxationClick this link to receive your FREE TRIAL to The Greenhouse Communityhttps://www.thegreenhousecommunity.com/checkout/the-greenhouse-membership?affiliate_code=11e889

#901 I was wrong. Going against one of my core beliefs proved it and changed everything! For years, I championed the idea that long-form content was the only real way to build a loyal audience. I was especially hard on the growing popularity of TikTok. But that all changed when I finally understood what it takes to attract superfans, one sixty-second video at a time. Now, my short-form series, Should I Open It, or Should I Keep It Sealed?, has become the number one thing I'm known for. Listen in because, in this episode, I reveal how I went from skeptic to believer. I've picked up over a billion views in process and have serious additional revenue coming in, so don't miss this session! I'll share the importance of consistency and authenticity, and why showing up daily might be the most powerful growth strategy we have right now.

Behavioral coach Vince Green reveals how he transformed from Volvo corporate VP to ClickFunnels' Prime Mover Linchpin coach, sharing his counterintuitive philosophy: "If you want to change your life, change your offer." Speaking with Hosts Chris Cameron and Tyler Wicks, Vince passionately dismantles the "fake it till you make it," mentality, instead advocating for radical authenticity: Work for free initially, document everything, and invite people on the journey with you. He also breaks down the essentials of entrepreneurial success: one avatar, one offer, one channel, and crucially, "one coach, one approach."

Chris Spencer is a tech entrepreneur and founder of TeamQ, who today is using his decade playing in the NFL as a foundation for helping athletes across the country maximize their potential on the field and in life. In this episode, Spencer and Anne Hancock Toomey discuss his background growing up in Bentonia, Mississippi, transitioning from farm life to football. He wasn't just a football player, though. Spencer had an impressive career at Ole Miss and, following a conversation with Archie Manning, entered the draft...where he was picked in the first round (unheard of for a center) and ended up snapping the ball on the play that instantly became known as BeastQuake. Here, Spencer shares insights into his dyslexia diagnosis and how football became both a crutch and a tool for his personal development. He digs into the lessons he learned and the needs he observed while playing that led him to his post-NFL career founding TeamQ, a performance intelligence platform aimed at empowering athletes beyond the game. The conversation covers Spencer's leadership philosophies, the importance of relationships, and AI.

Listen to this episode before you begin holiday shopping or selling!Today I'm sharing a conversation I had with Rachel Duncan for the Money Healing Club Podcast where we go deeeeeep into how social media impacts our spending habits and finances.We talk about budgets, boundaries, and screentime. Then we explore why restriction isn't necessarily the answer to addiction — and why rebellion and pleasure may be better antidotes for feeling too online.We also explore the core concepts of my book, including: what's wrong with the attention economy, the negative impacts of extractive algorithms, and my 5 principles for gardening your attention.➡

In this episode, Luke Hessler gets radically real about losing everything and rebuilding faster using the only assets no one can take: mindset, skills, and relationships. We dig into personal branding for any personality (yes, introverts), the “one post a day for a year” muscle, turning your warm network into real leads (today), and scaling without employees by fixing fulfillment first and systemizing customer acquisition. It's gritty, generous, and wildly practical.FAQs From The EpisodeI'm introverted. Can I really build a personal brand without being on camera all day? Yes. A personal brand is just your authentic offline reputation, online. If video drains you, lead with thoughtful written posts, frameworks, and slow-paced explanations. The people who think like you will prefer it. Pick one platform, post once daily for a year, and use simple content buckets (e.g., Expertise, Process, Personal). Watch engagement to see what lands, then iterate.I need leads fast on a tiny budget. What should I do this week? Start with your warm network. Make a handwritten (or spreadsheet) list of every relevant contact and call them. Offer a small “beta” program to a few ideal clients for free in exchange for a testimonial, a case study, and 1–2 introductions. Measure it like math: if 1 in 10 says “yes,” and you need 5 clients, make 50 quality outreaches. Don't overcomplicate. Sort for the “ready now,” not convince the “not now.”How do I scale without hiring employees and avoid burning out? Fix fulfillment first. Ensure partners/vendors can handle increased volume so new sales don't create churn. Then systemize customer acquisition (choose one core motion: landing page + traffic, affiliates, or cold outbound that sets appointments). Expect a short initial sprint (the jet uses 80% of fuel on takeoff), then automate/outsourcing what worked: repurpose posts, templatize outreach, use software or reliable vendors. Choose a sustainable cadence over heroics.

There was once a time, when data science was still in its infancy, when demonstrating any attempt to learn Python or machine learning was enough to secure a job interview. The demand for data scientists massively outweighed supply. Ten years later, however, the job market has dramatically shifted - and many data scientists who unexpectedly find themselves out of work face a truly overwhelming experience.In this episode, Sarah Burnett joins Dr. Genevieve Hayes to share how she transformed redundancy from a senior banking role into the launch of her own successful data consultancy, proving that unexpected job loss doesn't have to mean career disaster.In this episode, we explore:Why redundancy is a numbers game, not personal failure [03:54]The power of taking time to process after job loss, instead of rushing back [08:47]How to pivot when your first business idea doesn't work [16:58]Why building side projects and community involvement create career insurance [20:52]Guest BioSarah Burnett is the co-founder of Dub Dub Data, a consultancy that offers human-centric AI and Tableau solutions.

“Once you have your go-to framework, your go-to model, and then as you innovate, few come up with new ideas, and instead of just doing away with the old one, it becomes a tool in your pocket. And you can keep building that toolbox as you go.”This week, host Grant Baldwin reconnects with his good friend, renowned speaker, author, and content strategist Melanie Deziel. If you've ever struggled to organize your ideas, wanted to stand out in the crowded speaking market, or wondered how successful speakers build frameworks that turn concepts into intellectual property, you're in the right place.Grant and Melanie explore the crucial role frameworks play in building a memorable and scalable speaking business. Melanie breaks down why frameworks matter, what separates a strong framework from a pile of raw ideas, and how you can start developing your own signature process or model. Using relatable analogies, the discussion centers around how having a clear structure not only makes your message more memorable but also acts as a powerful tool for marketing, referral, and content creation.Listeners will gain practical strategies with Melanie's “IRON” method—Information, Relationship, Operation, and Name—for building frameworks step-by-step. She discusses the risks of trying to cram too much into one model, why a unique name or catchy acronym isn't the first thing you should focus on, and how to make sure your framework truly represents your expertise.Whether you're a new speaker refining your message or a seasoned professional reimagining your brand, you'll find plenty of guidance on how to take your ideas from abstract to impactful!You'll learn:How frameworks offer structure, scalability, and memorabilityBuilding intellectual property (IP)Overcoming the fear of narrowing your expertiseThe IRON Method: Information, Relationship, Operation, NameWhen to innovate an existing framework vs. introducing a new oneLeveraging AI for brainstorming, organization, and namingAnd much, much more!“The real challenge is having so many ideas, but they are not in a usable structure to be able to share those ideas effectively.”Episode ResourcesMelanie's WebsiteGet Free Speaker ResourcesBook a Call with The Speaker LabCalculate Your Speaking FeeJoin The Speaker Lab Community on FacebookSubscribe on Apple PodcastsSubscribe on SpotifySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
