Becoming an entrepreneur is the most expensive personal development program you will ever pay for, and I'm not even talking about the money. I'm talking about the version of yourself that you have to let die: the people pleaser who waits for permission, the woman who apologizes before she speaks, that part of you who thinks staying ahead of everything will finally make you safe. I've watched the “girl boss” era rise and fall. I've witnessed hustle culture get worshipped and then finally questioned. I've been in rooms I thought I needed to be in only to realize those weren't my rooms at all. Here's what I know: entrepreneurship is not just about building a business. It's about becoming someone who can. For women especially, this journey will ask you to unlearn almost everything you've been taught: to stop making yourself small, to stop waiting for permission, to stop apologizing for wanting more.

In this encore episode of Rapid Response, we revisit a scientific breakthrough that set the internet ablaze: The ‘de-extinction' of the dire wolf. While many celebrated Colossal Biosciences' announcement, the experiment also sparked controversy throughout the scientific community — namely the ethics of birthing and re-wilding extinct animals, and whether Colossal's dire wolf puppies are the real thing. Colossal's co-founder and CEO Ben Lamm joined host Bob Safian to take us inside the dire wolf journey, revealing how the startup attracted a roster of celebrity investors, and what the company's technology means for not only conservation and biodiversity, but potentially the future of human health.

MEET US LIVE IN CHICAGO! LEARN MORE! www.cre8tivecon.com What if this year is not about becoming someone new but about becoming a stronger, more intentional version of who you already are? In this reflective solo episode of the Get Obsessed Podcast, host Julie Lokun, JD shares a powerful mindset shift for high achievers who feel overwhelmed by hustle culture, endless goal setting, and the pressure to constantly do more. Julie reflects on the magic of the holidays through childhood eyes, the reality of adulthood responsibility, and the moment she realized that more goals did not equal more joy. Instead of embracing the tired phrase New Year, New You, she invites listeners to focus on intentional living rooted in clarity, energy protection, and alignment. This episode is for entrepreneurs, creatives, leaders, and high performers who are ready to stop doing more and start doing what truly matters. What You Will Learn in This Episode Julie explains why New Year, New You is a myth and how New Year, Same You but Stronger creates sustainable momentum. She walks through the power of choosing one personal goal and one professional goal and how this approach reduces overwhelm while increasing fulfillment. Listeners will learn why protecting physical and emotional energy is a non negotiable and how saying no without overexplaining creates freedom. Julie also addresses why rest and sleep are essential for clarity, creativity, and long term success. On the professional side, Julie shares what it means to amplify fewer voices more powerfully. She explains why going deeper instead of wider creates exponential results and how aligned energy between collaborators is the foundation of meaningful growth. Intentional Living and Honoring Your Season This episode invites listeners to ask a critical question: What season of life am I in? Julie encourages integration over pressure and reminds listeners that growth does not need to happen on a single day. She emphasizes honoring the lessons learned from the past year and recognizing resilience, even when healing feels incomplete. The Proof of Life Mindset Julie introduces the concept of a proof of life list, a practice of acknowledging moments when you showed up despite adversity. Whether navigating relationship changes, health challenges, financial stress, or professional uncertainty, surviving counts and deserves recognition. Relationships Over Algorithms Julie shares why some of her most meaningful opportunities came from conversations rather than content. By dialing down social media and prioritizing real relationships, she found deeper connection and greater professional impact. Expansion, Curiosity, and Beginner's Brain Listeners are encouraged to say yes to growth without pressure. Julie explores the idea of expansion through curiosity, new conversations, and experiences that place you back into beginner's brain, a concept she learned from Jim Kwik. Planning Joy on Purpose If joy is not scheduled, stress will be. Julie challenges listeners to plan joy intentionally, whether through small moments of play, creativity, rest, or connection. Joy is not a reward. It is a requirement. Resources Mentioned Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less by Greg McKeownJim Kwik's teachings on beginner's brain and limitless learningCre8tive Con 2025 in Chicago at www.cre8tivecon.com Featured Voice: Jim Kwik Bestselling author and world renowned brain coach Jim Kwik shares why creativity is no longer optional in today's fast changing world.

This Episode Is For You If You feel busy but unfulfilledYou are craving clarity instead of chaosYou want success without burnoutYou are ready to protect your energy without guiltYou are choosing meaning over more A Final Message from Julie You are not behind. You are becoming. This year is not about chasing more. It is about choosing meaning, honoring your season, and having the courage to protect what matters most.

Get the WRAP template and see an example hereIt's that time of year – when we start thinking about what went well, what didn't, and what we want to change. Successful people know that before planning the next year (or project, etc) you first need to review what happened in the past year. In this video I share a simple but powerful framework that will help make your reflection more meaningful (and actually useful).Ask yourself 4 simple questions:Wins - what went well and where did I win?Results - what happened with the goals I set?Alignment - am I living in a way that aligns with my values?Pivot or Progress - what do I need to do to make a great plan for next year?You might know WRAP as a weekly review method, but it works just as well for annual review. Here's how to use it to look back on your year and plan for 2026. Thanks for watching!01:27 - What is the WRAP?02:58 - Wins (what went well)08:43 - Results (of my 2025 goals)15:40 - Alignment (with who I want to be)20:36 - Pivot (to more success in 2026)28:26 - What I love about annual reviews
Alex Smereczniak is a serial entrepreneur and the co founder and CEO of Franzy, a platform reshaping how entrepreneurs discover and acquire franchise businesses. Franzy was built to remove the opacity and friction that traditionally plague franchising, giving founders real clarity, tools, and support to make smarter decisions. Alex's work centers on enabling ownership and helping people bet on themselves with better information.Before Franzy, Alex co founded and served as CEO of 2ULaundry and LaundroLab, where he helped scale a venture backed laundry delivery company and its franchise arm from the ground up. His experience spans fundraising, growth, operations, and franchising, and he remains actively involved as a board member for both companies. He has lived the realities of scaling fast, hiring teams, navigating capital, and building systems that hold under pressure.In this episode, Alex breaks down what actually works when building businesses that scale and why entrepreneurship is more accessible than most people think when the right structure is in place. He shares lessons from multiple ventures, hard earned insights from the franchise world, and a clear perspective on how to create companies that drive both profit and impact. This is a grounded conversation with a founder who understands the full lifecycle of building and backing businesses.
Why is it so hard to explain what you do, even when you're really good at it? In this episode, messaging strategist Damian Vallelonga breaks down why solopreneurs struggle with clarity, confidence, and consistency in their messaging, and what to do about it.We talk about why referrals aren't a strategy, how vague language quietly kills opportunities, and the exact framework Damian uses to help solopreneurs create elevator pitches, website headlines, and LinkedIn bios that actually make sense to other humans. If you've ever said, “I know what I do, I just don't know how to explain it,” this episode is for you.Episode FAQsWhy do solopreneurs struggle to clearly explain what they do?Solopreneurs struggle to explain what they do because they know too much. Years of experience, details, and expertise live in their heads, making it hard to simplify their message for someone hearing it for the first time. Clear messaging requires stepping outside your own perspective and focusing on what your audience needs to understand, not everything you know.What is the simplest framework for creating an effective elevator pitch?An effective elevator pitch has three parts:The common problem your ideal client is struggling withWhat you do to help solve that problemThe outcome or transformation they experience as a resultThis structure keeps your message focused, relatable, and easy to remember, without turning it into a list of credentials or services.How often should solopreneurs update their messaging?Solopreneurs should revisit their messaging any time their business changes in a meaningful way. This includes adding or removing services, narrowing a niche, shifting strategy, or changing who they serve. Messaging should always follow business strategy, because outdated or unclear messaging creates confusion, and confusion is one of the biggest barriers to growth.

I'm covering the importance of slowing down during the holiday season to focus on faith, hope, joy, peace, love, and forgiveness.

In this powerful, no-fluff conversation, Dr. Alisa dives into a truth most entrepreneurs try to avoid: your business will never outgrow your mindset.This episode unpacks why branding is not about logos, colors, or aesthetics—but about identity, alignment, and ownership. When leaders skip the inner work, the business eventually stalls. When identity is clear, influence compounds.You'll hear real talk about:Why consistency—not motivation—is the real differentiatorHow entrepreneurs sabotage growth by expecting success to be easyThe mindset shift required to stop outsourcing responsibility for resultsWhy brand evolution must start at the identity level, not the surface levelHow value creation, service, and profit must coexist for sustainable impactThis episode is for founders, leaders, and creators who are done chasing shortcuts and ready to build something that lasts—from the inside out.
Fred and Sherrod were top-tier corporate sales performers pulling in six-figure salaries before they realized that the local "dirty" businesses—like junk haulers and carpet cleaners—were actually out-earning them while enjoying significantly more freedom. Tired of the "gilded cage" of corporate America, this US Army veteran duo walked away from their Fortune 500 careers to build Accelerated Waste Solutions. Today, they've turned a borrowed pickup truck into a national system that generates $1 million a month with a staggering 60% gross profit margin.In this episode, Fred and Sherrod join Ryan Atkinson to break down their recession-proof playbook for building a high-margin service business. They dive deep into why they prioritize B2B contracts over B2C, explaining the strategic shift from "renting" customers to "owning" them through recurring revenue. You'll learn the mathematical secrets behind their "Bigger Trucks, Better Pricing" competitive advantage and how they used a patented junk removal app to bring transparency and technology to the waste management industry.From leveraging relationships at the local Chamber of Commerce to the conviction required to turn down a $5 million acquisition offer, Fred and Sherrod share the grit and systems needed to scale a successful franchise. Whether you're interested in business acquisition, startup advice for service-based businesses, or transitioning from sales to CEO, this interview provides the roadmap to financial independence. Stay tuned for their "fan blitz" where they reveal the essential tools—like the humble dolly and scoop shovel—that save their teams hours of labor every single weekTakeaways:- The realization that local service providers often out-earn six-figure corporate employees can be the ultimate catalyst for leaving the corporate ladder.- Focusing on B2B contracts with apartment complexes allows a business to "own" a customer through recurring revenue rather than "renting" them for one-time residential events.- Successful business opportunities often stem from solving personal daily frustrations, such as the inconvenience of transporting trash across a large residential property.- Maintaining a 60% gross profit margin is achievable by using larger trucks and precise mathematical volume calculations to offer the most competitive price per cubic yard.- Integrating patented technology like photo-based reporting creates a transparency "trust factor" that differentiates a service business from competitors who use bait-and-switch pricing.- Prioritizing community relationships and joining local chambers of commerce is often more effective for long-term growth than immediate, unguided prospecting.- Entrepreneurs must identify their "Achilles' heels" early on and utilize resources like AI or specialized sales training to offset their personal skill gaps.- Investing in simple but essential equipment like heavy-duty dollies and scoop shovels prevents unprofessionalism and saves hours of physical labor on the job site.- Maximizing daily efficiency requires a purposeful routing plan for both service calls and prospecting before even leaving the house in the morning.- Having a clear vision and a "why" beyond just money provides the conviction necessary to turn down premature multi-million dollar acquisition offers in favor of long-term scaling.Tags: Side Hustle, Entrepreneurship, B2B, Business Mindset, Startup, Customer Retention, Junk Hauling Resources:Grow your business today: https://links.upflip.com/the-business-startup-and-growth-blueprint-podcast Connect with Fred and Sherrod:https://www.instagram.com/awsfranchise/?hl=en

Borrowing the concept of “mokita,” we explore how unspoken issues infect culture, erode patient experience, and drain profit—then we show you how to end the silence without blowing up your team.We walk through a simple, repeatable framework for tough conversations: Ask permission, State how you feel, Share the issue clearly, and Seek to understand. You'll hear how this approach lowers defensiveness, creates psychological safety, and replaces gossip with honest dialogue. From chronically late hygiene schedules to front desk friction, we unpack how to distinguish a process problem from a conversation problem, and why addressing the latter first makes your systems actually work. Real-world examples reveal how a single candid talk can outperform a dozen SOP tweaks.By the end, you'll have a practical script for tackling your biggest cultural bottlenecks and a weekly challenge to surface one mokita and resolve it.

In this Real Estate Rundown episode, Owen and Ted get into the practical side of AI—how tools like ChatGPT can help you spot your “zone of genius” (and your blind spots) so you can stop doing the work you secretly hate and start delegating like an adult. They share a solid prompt passed along from their buddy Colin Schwartz, compare “nice” AI vs “tell me the truth” AI, and talk about why unfiltered feedback can be a cheat code for business growth.They also drop a super practical landlord/flipper nugget: a cellular-based temp/humidity/power monitoring device you can use in vacant properties during winter so you don't find out you lost heat after your pipes explode.Finally, they preview an upcoming episode with local Omaha investor Jason Woodward (and his son) and tease a conversation around “alternative flipping”—ways to flip assets that aren't houses (boats, cars, furniture, etc.).If you got value from this one:Follow/subscribe to REIA Radio, share this episode with a friend, and comment what your zone of genius is (or the thing you're finally going to stop doing).

If your marketing feels like it's working harder… but not necessarily working better, you're not imagining it.In this episode, I'm joined by our lead speaking coach, Diane Diaz, for part one of a two-part series all about why your signature talk isn't just “nice to have” - it's actually the foundation of an effective marketing strategy.We're seeing it everywhere: more content, more noise, more competition for attention. And yet, many women entrepreneurs and professionals are still treating their talks as an afterthought — something they dust off when a speaking opportunity pops up.That's a missed opportunity. Your signature talk is your marketing.In our conversation, Diane and I break down why public speaking accelerates the know-like-trust factor faster than almost any other marketing channel — and how a well-designed signature talk can do the heavy lifting for you.We talk about:Why speaking creates deeper trust than social media posts, emails, or even podcasts aloneHow a single lead-generation talk brought in multiple new clients the same day — without being salesyThe difference between passive marketing (scrolling, consuming) and active engagement (participating, resonating, deciding)Why audiences are more likely to trust you when they see other people responding to your message (hello, mirror neurons)What a signature talk really is (hint: it's not just one rigid presentation you give foreverAs you listen, I want you to start thinking about:What problem do you really solve for your clients?What does your audience think is holding them back — and what do you see that they don't yet?Where might you be sharing information… when what your audience needs is leadership, perspective, and clarity?If that feels fuzzy (and for most people, it does), you're not doing it wrong. This is exactly why an outside perspective — and a proven framework — makes such a difference.In the next episode, we're diving into how to design and deliver presentations that actually convert — without awkward pitches or forced CTAs.If you've ever thought, “I'm speaking, but it's not leading to clients,” part two is for you.And if you're ready to build a signature talk that becomes the backbone of your marketing, visibility, and thought leadership, you can learn more about working with us inside the Thought Leader Academy, through a VIP Day, or at one of our in-person Orlando speaking workshops.Links:Show notes at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/456/ Discover your Speaker Archetype by taking our free quiz at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/quiz/Enroll in our Thought Leader Academy: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/academy/ Attend our 1-day Speaking Accelerator Workshop in Orlando: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/orlando/ Connect on LinkedIn:Carol Cox = https://www.linkedin.com/in/carolcoxDiane Diaz = https://www.linkedin.com/in/dianediaz/ Related Podcast Episodes:Episode 453: Why Your Best Talk is the One You Give Again (and Again)Episode 396: Creating a Signature Talk that Attracts Paid Speaking Opportunities

314 | In this episode, Dmitry Shamis sits down with Dave to break down how Dave writes—the process behind emails, newsletters, landing pages, and posts that get attention. They talk about why Dave starts with the hook, why editing matters more than writing, and why most B2B marketing fails by trying to say too much. Dave also shares how podcasting shaped his thinking, why formatting is underrated, how he decides when something is “done,” and why shipping beats waiting for perfection. If you want to learn more behind Dave's writing, creation, and marketing this episode is a great one for you; Dave shares a bunch of his behind the scenes style that he's not shared on the podcast before.What's Your Process? is hosted by Dmitry Shamis—co-founder of OhSnap!, former Head of Brand and Creative at HubSpot, and one of the early pioneers of self-service brand systems for B2B tech. The show is an in-depth look at the processes behind top marketers, with past guests including Jess Cook, Ross Simmonds, Eddie Shleyner, Lashay Lewis, and Melissa Rosenthal.Timestamps(00:00) - – Why this conversation matters (05:38) - – Dave's background and path into marketing (09:53) - – What Dave is world-class at (and why copy is the leverage) (14:28) - – Why hooks come first and editing beats writing (19:48) - – How podcasting sharpened Dave's instincts (25:18) - – Formatting, focus, and making writing easier to read (32:35) - – Deciding when something is “done” and when to ship (39:05) - – Why most B2B marketing fails by trying to say too much (45:50) - – Raising the bar, big bets, and making hard leadership calls Join 50,0000 people who get our Exit Five Newsletter here: https://www.exitfive.com/newsletterLearn more about Exit Five's private marketing community: https://www.exitfive.com/***Today's episode is brought to you by Knak.Email (in my humble opinion) is the still the greatest marketing channel of all-time.It's the only way you can truly “own” your audience.But when it comes to building the emails - if you've ever tried building an email in an enterprise marketing automation platform, you know how painful it can be.
