In November 1992, a Hollywood camera crew soars above Hawaii's Kīlauea, one of the world's most dangerous volcanoes, to capture footage for a major feature film. But suddenly their helicopter's engine cuts out, and they plunge into an active crater. Trapped and inhaling toxic fumes, the men will have to battle for survival — even for every breath — if they're going to escape the volcano and see their loved ones again.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this fan favorite episode of Design Business Freedom, I'm diving into lead generation strategies that help interior designers fill their profit pipeline with better clients, bigger projects, and more consistent cash flow. You'll learn how to move away from the exhausting project-to-project roller coaster and build a design business with more predictability, profitability, and peace of mind. Instead of waiting until your current projects end to find the next client, this episode shows you how to create demand before you need it. The central lesson is building a profit pipeline through paid VIP waitlists, strategic visibility, referral partnerships, and relationship-based lead generation that positions your interior design firm as the obvious choice.

Today's story is a fan favorite that was previously published as Episode 291. In January of 2012, a police truck parked on a trail in Griffith Park in Los Angeles, California. A member of the K-9 Unit opened the door, and a police dog named Indiana Bones jumped out. Indy quickly caught a scent and led his handler to a mound of dirt just off the path. Indy pawed at the dirt and revealed the top of a plastic bag. The dog's handler reached into the dirt with her gloved hands, pulled out the bag, looked inside, and saw two dismembered human feet and a hand. Indy's discovery would launch an investigation that would lead two L.A. detectives into the most insane case they'd ever worked – a case that would involve everything from Mexican drug cartels to a Canadian cannibal.   You can WATCH all new & exclusive MrBallen podcast episodes on my YouTube channel, just called "MrBallen" - https://www.youtube.com/c/MrBallen If you want to reach out to me, contact me on Instagram, Twitter or any other major social media platform, my username on all of them is @mrballen Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

When I first started my design business, I found myself in a client trap. 80% of my revenue was coming from 20% of my clients, but 80% of my clients were delivering just 20% of my revenue. When it came to choosing clients for the first five years of my business, I was not selective and I was not discerning. I didn't even know about an ideal client. But once I made this discovery and started to focus on the 20% of my ideal clients, my workload dropped significantly. I cut loose all the lovely people that were clients, but were too small or required too much hand-holding.  Since I have made this shift myself, I have shortcuts to share to get you on the path to becoming more selective and discerning with your own clients. Marketing to your ideal client means you're able to rise head and shoulders above the competition, you're able to be seen, heard, and valued beyond the crowd. I want you to assess and evaluate who your best fits are, instead of taking whoever shows up.  To do that, you need to start conversing with your clients and creating key points of connection with them. In today's episode, I will walk you through my shortcuts for identifying and connecting with your ideal client. Creating these connections will lead to lasting client relationships that will make your business thrive without burning you out.  In this episode, you will hear: Why you need to identify your ideal client What are the four key types of client intel that you need to know How to turn points of connection into points of profit As one of our Fan Favorite episodes, I'd love to know what your favorite episode is.

Today's story is a fan favorite that was previously published as Episode 285. On a summer morning in 2001, a woman in Alabama woke up in a cold sweat – like she'd just had a nightmare. But the woman knew what she saw while she was sleeping was not a bad dream – it was real. So she grabbed her phone and made a frantic call. Later that morning, police arrived at an old wooden house on the outskirts of a small rural town. They stepped inside, and they were absolutely shocked, because the woman really had led them to a horrifying crime scene.   You can WATCH all new & exclusive MrBallen podcast episodes on my YouTube channel, just called "MrBallen" - https://www.youtube.com/c/MrBallen If you want to reach out to me, contact me on Instagram, Twitter or any other major social media platform, my username on all of them is @mrballen Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This Friday Rewind is one of your all-time favorites — and for good reason. In this episode, I sit down with artist Kirsten Williams to talk about what really happens between starting out and selling out collections.

Kirsten shares her journey from a 15-year career in marketing to becoming a full-time artist, how years of experimentation led to a breakthrough series, and the behind-the-scenes shifts that helped her work sell out — from email lists and launches to mindset and patience.

When was the last time that you evaluated how you are compensated for your creative services? The last time that you raised your rates to reflect your experience and value? You know what I'm about to tell you: it's time, in fact, you're overdue! Today we're diving into how to accurately charge for your services based on your value rather than your worth. You'll learn how the solutions that you provide to the three universal problems every client has–health, wealth, and relationships–are your greatest advantage in accurately pricing your services. You'll understand why it's so important to adjust your fees based on the return on investment that your services give to clients, rather than on the amount of time it took for you to complete. Remember, you only get paid for your work once, even though it will be enjoyed by your clients for years to come. It's crucial to learn how to harness and embed your value into your pricing, so that your business can stay lucrative and you don't burn yourself out. Fortunately, I have key strategies for you to get the most out of your service pricing without discounting your own worth. Tune into today's episode to hear my proven tips on how to ask for everything you deserve: because you don't get what you don't ask for. In this episode, you will hear: How to solve the three universal problems that all clients have. How to move your client from need (logic and their head) to want (emotion and their heart) to increase their investment in your services The importance of pricing your services based on outcome value rather than on time How to get yourself out of the hourly trap

Today's story is a completely NEW retelling of a fan favorite that was previously published as Episode 382. The audio has been newly recorded and edited. On the morning of May 17th, 2014, a detective wrote furiously as she sat next to the hospital bed of a mortally-injured 77-year-old woman. The woman had been in a coma for the last ten days, and the detective had been desperately working to figure out who had tried to kill her. Now that the woman had woken up, the detective was finally getting the chance she'd been waiting for – to ask her victim directly. But the woman was afraid. She told the detective she had a lot to say, but she couldn't say it here, at the hospital – because she was still in danger.   You can WATCH all new & exclusive MrBallen podcast episodes on my YouTube channel, just called "MrBallen" - https://www.youtube.com/c/MrBallen If you want to reach out to me, contact me on Instagram, Twitter or any other major social media platform, my username on all of them is @mrballen Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Welcome to Fan Favorite Fridays — a replay series where I reshare the most-loved episodes from The Art Coaching Club podcast, especially for newer listeners or longtime fans who want a meaningful re-listen. This week's rerun features Meredith Kinney, and it's one you really loved when it first aired. In this conversation, Meredith shares her journey from a long career in graphic design and branded environments to building a fine art practice rooted in botanicals, pattern, and visual storytelling. We talk about how her background in large-scale design informs her work today — and how she's thoughtfully expanding her art beyond the canvas into wallpaper, pattern, and product collaborations. In this episode, we cover: How Meredith blended graphic design, fine art, and mixed media into a cohesive style The creative experimentation that led her to her current body of work Marketing art without feeling “salesy” Using Instagram and email in a way that feels authentic and sustainable Thinking long-term about art as both a practice and a brand If you're an artist navigating the space between fine art, design, and creative entrepreneurship — or thinking about how your work could live in more than one format — this episode is especially worth revisiting.

In this fan favorite replay episode of the Leading Lady podcast, I'm sharing the lessons I've learned from Zac Efron.  Just kidding! Kind of… I was watching a Zac Efron movie (you'll have to tune in to find out which one) that ended with an unexpectedly powerful message, and naturally I immediately wanted to talk about it with you.  The message is one about leaving behind narratives that no longer serve you, being your true self, and embracing a growth mindset. I told you it was powerful!  This episode is a cozy chat between you and me about the possibilities that open up when you are curious about your own life, eager to learn, and willing to grow.   Topics covered in this episode include: Moving on from narratives that no longer serve you How to be yourself when you feel like your true self will be rejected  The difference between a fixed mindset and a growth mindset   Tune in to learn how to embrace a growth mindset so that you can evolve into the leading lady you want to be.  Show notes available at www.leadinglady-coaching.com/podcast   Resources Mentioned:  Book a Coaching Call: https://aalcoachschedule.as.me/?appointmentType=2262142 Have you joined the Leading Ladies Facebook Group yet?!

Today's story is a fan favorite that was previously published as Episode 392. In the early hours of Thursday, February 21st, 2008, a six-year-old girl woke to a creaking noise down the hallway outside her bedroom door. It was a blustery night in rural Nevada, so she figured it was just the wind bending frozen tree branches in the yard. But then another creaking noise filled the house, this time even closer to her bedroom. She pulled her covers tight around her and stared out through the crack in the door. An uneasy feeling settled over her as the light in the hallway shifted. She could almost see the outline of a person standing outside her room. She squinted, trying to make out a face, wondering if it was one of her parents checking in on her. But as quick as the shadow appeared, it vanished into thin air.   You can WATCH all new & exclusive MrBallen podcast episodes on my YouTube channel, just called "MrBallen" - https://www.youtube.com/c/MrBallen If you want to reach out to me, contact me on Instagram, Twitter or any other major social media platform, my username on all of them is @mrballen Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
