Jennifer Kornoely didn't choose to leave corporate. The choice was made for her.She was meeting every goal, delivering every metric — and her manager let her go anyway. Because he could. A single mum with no severance, no safety net, and suddenly no income.What she did next wasn't a triumphant pivot. It was a survival decision that slowly became something she chose.In this episode, Jennifer shares how she went from real estate photographer who didn't know what she didn't know, to the founder of She Reads She Leads — an online book club and community for women who are done waiting for someone to hand them the financial and business knowledge they were never taught.This conversation is for you if you've ever wondered: why does everyone else seem to know how this works — and why didn't anyone tell me?What We Talk AboutThe moment everything was taken away Jennifer was performing well. She was hitting all her numbers. And she was still let go — because a man didn't like her and had the power to act on it. She talks honestly about what it feels like when your income, your health insurance, and your professional identity disappear overnight — and why this story is far more common than women are willing to admit.What you don't know until you start Photography was the skill. But pricing, client contracts, pitching a major brokerage, knowing which clients to avoid — none of that came with the camera. Jennifer names the invisible gap between being brilliant at your craft and actually running a business. It's not a confidence gap. It's a knowledge gap. And no one hands you the curriculum.How audiobooks in empty houses changed everything Doing solo real estate photography means hours of silence. Jennifer started filling that silence with personal finance audiobooks. Ideas took root. Conversations shifted. She started asking better questions of the women around her — and realizing she wasn't the only one hungry for this.Why women need community — not just mentors There's a difference between learning from someone and learning with someone. Jennifer found that the real breakthroughs in her community happened not in the expert-to-student moments, but in the Zoom calls where a woman said I feel like I'm behind — and three other women immediately said you're not. Here's what I did.Building a community as an introvert Jennifer didn't want to be center stage. She didn't want to be pitching to ten people a day. So she built something that fits who she actually is: smaller groups, intentional relationships, facilitated conversation rather than performance. She talks about the 30 seconds of discomfort at a networking event that leads to a one-on-one — and why that's a strategy, not just a consolation prize.Women as multipliers When Jennifer says women don't just grow what they're given — they multiply it — she means it practically. Better investors. Better savers. Better negotiators. And yet: messaged from scarcity instead of abundance. Told to clip coupons while men are told to dominate markets. This conversation names that gap directly.Why entrepreneurial thinking belongs to everyone — even if you love your job Jennifer makes a case that hits differently in this job market: don't wait until you need these skills to build them. If you lost your income tomorrow, would you know how to replace it? The answer to that question is worth sitting with.Three Starter Books for Women and MoneyJennifer recommends these three books as the foundation - read all three before moving to investing or business finance.The Financial Feminist — Tori Dunlap On gender inequality in money, and why financial messaging has always been different for women.Rich AF — Vivian Tu On evolving from financial basics into wealth-building — from someone who spent years watching how high-net-worth people actually think and operate.Get Good with Money — Tiffany Aliche On budgeting and tracking with intention, not shame. Because you can't improve what you don't understand.All three are written by millennial women, all three are active on social media, and all three make this knowledge accessible in a way the previous generation of finance advice never did.Connect with JenniferShe Reads She Leads Download Jennifer's free resource: the three best books across six business categories — personal finance, wealth building, networking, outsourcing, and more.Join the She Reads She Leads Book Club for ongoing conversation between monthly Zoom sessions.Work with Serena LowI work with quiet women leaders in loud corporate spaces that reward extroversion.

Rebekah Brown Olson didn't plan to lead a state CPA society. A single leadership assessment during a firm training session reframed how she saw her own strengths, and thirteen years later she's the CEO of the Maryland Association of CPAs, connecting firm leaders across the profession every day. In this conversation, Brannon Poe talks with Rebekah about what's really driving change in accounting right now, and why she believes community, not information, is what separates firms that thrive from firms that struggle.Rebekah shares an encouraging read on the student pipeline, pointing to strong turnout and impressive second-career candidates at a recent University of Maryland accounting graduation event. She also walks through her theory on where private equity is headed: a barbell shaped profession, with large firms formed through consolidation on one end and a new wave of small, independent firms on the other, as CPAs who leave newly acquired environments choose to build something of their own.For firm owners thinking about their own exit, Rebekah's advice centers on two habits: treating strategy as something to revisit constantly rather than a plan that sits on a shelf, and involving the people around you early, since real alignment comes from letting your team weigh in on where the firm is headed.The Conversation Covers:How a leadership assessment redirected Rebekah's entire career pathWhy community may be the biggest differentiator for CPA firms over the next decadeHow private equity could reshape the profession into a barbell-shaped structureWhy small firms are positioned to specialize and move faster than larger competitorsHow involving your team early creates real strategic alignment ahead of a transitionWhy choosing the right private equity partner matters more than the deal itselfRebekah closes with a story from her college years at Ohio State, working as a football field manager during a live scrimmage, that ties back to the same theme running through the whole conversation: what it looks like when a community shows up for someone.This Episode Is For:Firm owners curious about how community and connection shape long-term successLeaders ready to think through a 5 to 10 year exit and succession planPractitioners wondering how private equity might change hiring, retention, and cultureAnyone interested in how small firms can compete through specialization and speedBook Recommendation:The Upside of Stress: Why Stress Is Good for You, and How to Get Good at It by Dr. Kelly McGonigal Amazon linkTimestamps:00:00 - Brannon Poe intro and podcast welcome 00:14 - Introducing Rebekah Brown Olson, CEO of the Maryland Association of CPAs 00:57 - How a quarter-life crisis and a leadership assessment changed Rebekah's career path 01:41 - From CPA firm senior to curriculum developer at the Maryland Association of CPAs 03:12 - Working part time, then full time, then becoming CEO three years ago 04:02 - What Brannon and Rebekah share: burning out of public practice and finding a better fit 04:45 - What Rebekah gets to do now: advocate for the profession and connect people across it 05:06 - The big picture view: what the Maryland Association of CPAs CEO is seeing right now 05:31 - Why getting good at change is the most important capability for any accounting firm 06:00 - Why community is the competitive advantage when complexity and change accelerate 06:34 - Why you can't know everything but you can know a lot of people 07:19 - Recruiting new students: are the numbers moving and what kind of students are coming in 08:15 - Why the pipeline alarm is starting to work and what recent graduation events are showing 08:40 - Accounting as a stable major during economic uncertainty 09:07 - What the new wave of accounting students looks like: different backgrounds, strong leaders 09:30 - Retention: are people staying in the profession better than they used to?

One thing I've noticed over the years is that most investors don't fail because they're incapable. They fail because they quit too soon. They look at a handful of deals, make a few offers, get ignored by brokers, face some rejection, and decide that real estate doesn't work. But that's not how any skill works. Nobody picks up a guitar and becomes a musician overnight. Nobody paddles into their first wave and looks like a surfer. Nobody walks into a boxing gym and knows how to fight. And nobody becomes a great real estate investor after underwriting three deals. In this episode, I talk about the importance of staying in the game long enough to develop the skills, confidence, and experience needed to succeed. We discuss: Why analyzing hundreds of deals is not a waste of time The importance of repetition and pattern recognition Getting ignored by brokers and rejected offers The "ugly middle" where most investors give up Lessons from teaching, surfing, boxing, and multifamily investing Why consistency beats talent over the long run Whether you're still searching for your first deal or feeling frustrated with your progress, this episode is a reminder that success often comes to those who simply refuse to quit. The investors who eventually succeed aren't always the smartest, richest, or most connected. They're the ones who stick around long enough to get good.

SUMMARY In this episode, Jeremy Lesniak and Andrew Adams discuss the reasons why many martial artists quit training just before they achieve significant progress. They explore the emotional and psychological factors that contribute to this phenomenon, including the excitement factor in training, the impact of instant gratification, and the pressure of expectations. The conversation emphasizes the importance of focusing on effort over results, the role of instructors in fostering a supportive environment, and the need for students to take ownership of their growth. The episode concludes with thoughts on self-reporting progress and the importance of continuous learning beyond the black belt.   TAKEAWAYS Many martial artists quit right before achieving their goals. Training can lose excitement, leading to disengagement. Instant gratification affects long-term commitment in martial arts. Effort should be praised over results to encourage persistence. Instructors must model vulnerability and accept mistakes. The black belt is often seen as the end goal, leading to dropout. Students need to feel empowered to track their own progress. Self-reporting can help students recognize their growth. Creating a safe learning environment is crucial for retention. Continuous learning should be emphasized beyond the black belt.   Join our EXCLUSIVE newsletter to get notified of each episode as it comes out! Subscribe — whistlekick Martial Arts Radio

In this episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros challenge the mindset that turns “good enough” into an excuse for low standards. Average effort can sound strategic when it is really feedback avoidance, weak tracking, and comfort dressed up as self-awareness.They break down why discipline, accountability, and honest measurement matter in fitness, finances, habits, and long-term growth. This episode is not about perfection. It is about noticing where your standards have slipped and refusing to build an identity around excuses. Press play before “good enough” starts making decisions for you._______________________Book Alan's Business Breakthrough Session. Your first 30-minute coaching call is FREE.

Have you ever noticed that just when things start going really well — opportunities open up, momentum builds, results start coming in — something inside you starts to pull back? You cancel a client. You get sick. You tell yourself it won't last.That's not weakness. That's capacity. And in this episode, we're talking about how to expand it.In this episode:The balloon analogy that explains exactly why success can feel so uncomfortableWhat's actually happening in your body when things start going well — and why your nervous system responds like it's a threatThe two most common ways we unconsciously sabotage ourselves just when things get goodA simple three-step practice — Pause, Allow, Embody — to help you stretch into the success you've been working so hard to buildWhy it is safe to be successful and live into your greatest potentialThe framework from this episode:Pause — let yourself actually feel what's coming upAllow — notice where it lives in your body and soften the edges of itEmbody — let the success landThis is the work. Not just the strategy and the action steps — but expanding your capacity to receive and hold the success you're building.Ready to go deeper?If this episode resonated, I'd love to support you in doing this work — both for yourself and for your clients.

Nobody taught me how to be vulnerable.Not my parents. Not my teachers. Not the culture I grew up in — where masculinity and emotional openness didn't exactly go hand in hand. I spent years performing a version of myself that looked together, while underneath I was really afraid to be real.I wish someone had handed me a step-by-step guide. I wish someone had sat me down and said: here's why you're hiding, here's what it's costing you, and here's exactly how to build your way out of it.Nobody did. So I built it myself — slowly, painfully, over years of expanding my capacity to be seen.This episode is the guide I wish I'd had. It's for the younger version of me who needed it. And it's for anyone who wants to build the skill of feeling powerful in your vulnerability.What You'll Discover:Why not being vulnerable is costing you more than you think — in your relationships, your money, your health, your sense of self.Why the fear of being seen makes complete sense — it's not weakness. It's a protection mechanism built by a younger version of you. Understanding that changes everything.Why self-practice alone has a ceiling — journaling and breathwork are essential. But the nervous system heals in relationships. You need real practice with real people.How to set the right container — bringing your truth to the wrong person perpetuates pain. The skill includes knowing how to set the stage before you open the door.The difference between vulnerability and projection — one creates intimacy. The other creates damage. Here's exactly where that line is.What masculinity and vulnerability actually have to do with each other — and how redefining that changed everything for me.What it feels like on the other side — nothing to hide. The same person in every room. Relationships so full of truth you stop performing entirely.The Biggest Takeaway:You're going to walk away from this episode with a real, practiced framework for letting yourself be seen — without the fear of rejection swallowing you whole.You're going to understand why you've been hiding. You're going to have compassion for it. And you're going to have a clear, honest path for what to do next.The more vulnerable you allow yourself to be, the more magnetic your life becomes. The more people show up. The more intimacy, support, and magic finds its way in.This is the skill that changes everything. And by the end of this episode, you'll know exactly how to build it.Connect with Raj:Newsletter – Sign up here: https://www.rajjana.com/staygrounded/Website: http://www.rajjana.com/Instagram: @raj_janaiTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/rs/podcast/stay-grounded-with-raj-jana/id1318038490Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBPYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_janaLegal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.

In this episode of Next Level University, Kevin and Alan unpack a question that hits harder the more you grow: what if getting to the next level means learning how to disappoint people? They talk openly about the skills that do not feel good to build, like saying no, giving hard feedback, protecting your time, and facing the guilt that can come with all of it. Through stories about sports, leadership, friendship, and business, they show how external success often creates internal pressure. They also explore the difference between under-committing, over-committing, and building relationships you can actually sustain.This episode will help you think about the one skill that could change everything for you and the hidden skill you may need to build right after it. Press play for a real, honest look at growth that most people do not talk about._______________________Track the Work. Earn the Results.

One of the most common questions in self-defense is simple:“How long does it take to get good?”In this episode, John and Josh break down what “good” actually means in real-world self-defense — and why the answer has less to do with belts or techniques and more to do with consistency, stress exposure, and time.You can learn information in a weekend.You cannot build reliable habits under pressure that fast.Real self-defense requires:Pattern recognitionEmotional regulationStress adaptationProportional decision-makingPhysical execution under pressureThose defaults take time.John explains why:The first 90 days build awareness and basic movementAround one year of consistent training builds reliable competenceWeekend seminars introduce ideas — they do not create default behaviorConsistency beats intensityIdentity matters: becoming someone who trains changes everythingSelf-defense is not downloadable.It is built.Train more. Suck less.Key Learning Highlights1️⃣ Define “Good” Before You Define the TimelineGood does not mean:Knowing techniquesWinning sparring roundsFeeling confidentGood means:Recognizing threats earlyManaging adrenalineMaking lawful, proportional decisionsPerforming under stress2️⃣ The First 3 Months: FoundationWith consistent training:Movements improveAwareness increasesInitial confidence buildsBasic responses become familiarBut knowing is not doing.3️⃣ Around One Year: Reliable CompetenceAfter a year of consistent training (2–3 times per week):Reactions become more naturalStress exposure increasesDecision-making improvesConditioning supports performanceEgo decreasesThis is not mastery — but it is reliability.4️⃣ Why Weekend Seminars Don't WorkYou cannot compress:Pattern recognitionEmotional regulationMuscle memoryStress adaptationInto a weekend.Seminars introduce ideas.Training builds defaults.Under stress, you default.Defaults take time.5️⃣ Consistency Over IntensityTraining 2–3 times per week consistently is far more effective than:Sporadic five-day burstsOne-time seminars“I trained 20 years ago”Skill decays quickly without repetition.6️⃣ The Identity ShiftEventually, self-defense becomes part of who you are:“I train.”“I'm a protector.”“I take responsibility for my safety.”At that point, it stops being a goal and becomes a discipline.Who This Episode Is ForAdults starting self-defense later in lifeParents who want to feel saferResponsible firearm ownersGym members wondering about progress timelinesAnyone asking, “How fast can I feel safe?”Listen & SubscribeSpotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/6hDh7OscpVMKLLY8rCvgqsApple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-john-hallett-podcast/id1651930801Universal Link:https://redcircle.com/shows/a982e1e3-972c-4e9f-b369-6b29534df441YouTube Playlist:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIJr7pPF9el8qfN4mG9p8BxtuPKOpSBVn

On this episode of Destination on the Left, Joshua Harrell, Chief Revenue Officer at WorldVia, joins me to discuss the evolution of travel advisors in the United States in a post-pandemic world. Joshua shares his insights on how content creation can help travel advisors build their businesses, and he offers some fantastic practical tips for sharing great content with your audience. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How Joshua transitioned from a background in marketing and entrepreneurship into the travel advisor industry How the travel advisor profession has evolved to provide personalized value for travelers What content creation means for travel advisors and how becoming a content creator at any level can help build an audience and demonstrate expertise How Joshua encourages travel advisors to overcome the fear of content creation with his mantra: "get going, get smart, then get good" Why he advises advisors to align their business with personal passion and interests How collaboration between travel advisors and supplier partners leads to mutual business growth Marketing systems and foundational strategies Joshua recommends to help advisors streamline their marketing The Modern Travel Advisor Once upon a time, the idea of a travel agency conjured images of mall storefronts and swivel chairs. But today's travel advisor is a totally different breed, part consultant, part marketer, and 100% expert. Pre-2020, many Americans believed DIY online booking made travel advisors obsolete. But it was really the post-pandemic world that revealed just how valuable a travel professional can be. Whether unraveling complex travel restrictions or finding that off-the-beaten-path experience, advisors offer insider knowledge and advocacy that algorithms simply cannot replicate. Building Authority and Community Successful advisors aren't just travel experts; they're also storytellers, educators, and digital community builders, whether they do it by sending curated newsletters, going live on platforms like TikTok and YouTube, or sharing firsthand travel experiences on social channels. Don't be fooled into thinking only "influencers" can play the content game. Most successful travel advisors are content creators at some level. The key is helping potential clients see not just what you know, but how you think, your personality, experience, and specializations shining through. Start where you're comfortable, learn as you go, and trust that consistency breeds improvement and audience growth. The perfect lighting or equipment can wait. What matters is showing up and sharing your expertise. The Secret Sauce for Sustainable Growth The real magic happens in collaboration. Joshua backs this up with real stories, discussing the power of reaching out to suppliers, account managers, and fellow advisors. Whether joining mastermind calls, exploring new product lines, or simply sharing best practices, these partnerships unlock opportunities you might never have considered. He shares an example of an advisor who built a thriving business creating group trips for botanical societies, all sparked by a single phone conversation with a tour operator's representative.

Most runners are wasting their hard-earned fitness because they treat racing like a solo time trial instead of a tactical, emotional, unpredictable skill that demands reps just like any other.What if everything you think you know about racing is just a story you've been telling yourself? In this episode, I'm diving into the reality of what happens when your physical fitness meets the brutal mental skill of racing. You'll discover why your best training sessions don't always translate to the finish line and how a single pacing mistake can turn a goal race into a battle for survival. This episode breaks down the technical and psychological shifts needed to move from just "running fast" to actually "racing," providing a blueprint for analyzing your own data without letting emotions cloud your progress.Key TakeawaysRacing is a skill separate from fitness that requires practice under pressure. You cannot learn to handle pain and panic solely through solo time trials.Going out too fast early in a race often leads to slowing down too much later. Finding a smooth rhythm matters more than trying to force a perfect pace from the start.Your form breaks down when you get tired, so you need tools to maintain cadence. Using music or cues can help keep your steps quick even when your legs feel heavy.Timestamps[00:34] How to Get Good at the Skill of Racing[01:12] The 3k Race Breakdown[03:23] Use This to Improve Your VO2 Max[04:12] How to Review Your Data Post Race[07:05] Learn More About VO2 MaxLinks & Learnings

What if the problem isn't your budget—but your income? When cutting expenses isn't enough, it's time to rethink how money actually works. This episode breaks down practical, realistic ways to earn more without burning out.Episode TitleWhen Budgeting Isn't Enough: How to Earn More Without Working Yourself to DeathEpisode SummaryThis episode wraps up a multi-part series on money by shifting the focus from cutting expenses to increasing income. After learning how to budget, categorize spending, and manage money responsibly, the conversation turns to a hard truth: sometimes the math simply doesn't work without earning more. Drawing from personal experience and insights inspired by Tiffany Aliche and How to Get Good with Money, the episode explores why income is tied to value, replaceability, and visibility—not effort alone. It reframes earning more money as a strategic, skill-based process rather than a moral judgment or measure of self-worth.Top Topics CoveredWhy Working Harder Isn't the AnswerThe episode explains why long hours and exhaustion don't automatically translate into higher pay. Income is connected to market value, how specialized a role is, and how easily someone can be replaced. Understanding this removes shame and helps people think more clearly about their options.Asking for a Raise—With EvidenceRather than emotional appeals, raises should be approached with data. A “brag folder” becomes a powerful tool for tracking accomplishments, customer impact, time saved, and problems solved. This evidence makes performance visible and reduces anxiety during reviews and salary conversations.Becoming Harder to ReplaceLearning one critical skill deeply can change an entire career trajectory. Specialization, not job titles or degrees, often creates leverage. The episode highlights how focusing on overlooked problems or difficult tasks can dramatically increase stability and income.Recognizing Hidden SkillsSkills aren't just technical. Teaching, organizing, calming upset people, troubleshooting, and managing projects all carry real value. Personal life experiences—like leading volunteers or handling conflict—count and can be translated into paid work.Side Hustles That Don't Drain Your LifeSide income doesn't have to mean building an empire. The episode explores low-setup, low-stress options that align with existing strengths, from short-term projects to platform-based work that fits into real life.Key TakeawaysMaking more money isn't mysterious—it's strategic. Income grows when skills, needs, and visibility align. The most powerful step is taking responsibility for understanding personal value and learning how to place it wisely. Whether through negotiating pay, building expertise, changing roles, or adding a small side income, progress comes from intentional, realistic action. When expenses can't shrink further, increasing income becomes the other half of the equation—and it's one that can be approached one small step at a time.

This conversation with Briggs Pittman breaks down what actually kills elk on hard, public land hunts. Not theory, not gear hype, but decision-making, preparation, and execution.Briggs and Cliff cover why smelling elk is a non-negotiable stop, how elite hunters manage time in the woods, why mindset mathematically affects success, and how rifle hunters should think more like bow hunters. They dive deep into rifle setup, bipod selection, shooting positions, dry fire training, backpack weight discipline, food strategy, and why most hunters quietly sabotage themselves long before they miss a shot.Briggs on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/briggs_pittman/The Fastest Way to Get Good at Elk Hunting.

This episode breaks down how elk actually respond to hunting pressure and why most hunters misunderstand where mature bulls survive once seasons open.Cliff talks with a self-taught elk hunter, Dan Vinson, who learned the hard way, without mentors or shortcuts. The conversation centers on pressure, access, and human behavior, not elevation gain or how far someone is willing to hike. Elk do not disappear when pressure increases. They compress into small, unattractive pockets where hunters walk through but never slow down enough to hunt.The episode also covers bivy hunting, decision-making under uncertainty, and the cost of overcommitting to camps or rigid plans. A detailed solo bull encounter highlights how quickly things unravel after the shot, why blood trails are not guaranteed, and how emotional load compounds when hunting alone.This is a realistic look at elk hunting as it actually happens for most do-it-yourself hunters.Resources from Dan VinsonWild Gym | All Things Rucking: https://www.wildgym.com/Dan's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/wilddanvinsonThe Fastest Way to Get Good at Elk Hunting.

Improving your conflict skills isn't about finding the perfect words—it's about understanding why conflict feels so hard in the first place. When your body believes that speaking up could cost you connection, of course it freezes, softens, or stays quiet. In this episode, I talk about how our nervous systems learned early on that conflict wasn't safe, and why that doesn't mean something is wrong with you. When we slow down and get curious about our conflict response rather than judging it, that's when real change becomes possible, and you can actually get good at conflict. Here's what I cover:How shifting from “what's wrong with me?” to “why does this make sense?” helps eliminate the self-criticism spiralThe early lessons your body learned about conflict, compliance, and staying connectedHow people-pleasing and staying small function as intelligent survival strategiesThe questions I offer to help you look backward and make sense of your conflict responseHow attachment patterns shape what your body expects will happen when conflict threatens connectionRegister for my upcoming workshop HERE!Find Sara here:https://sarafisk.coachhttps://pages.sarafisk.coach/difficultconversationshttps://www.instagram.com/sarafiskcoach/https://www.facebook.com/SaraFiskCoaching/https://www.tiktok.com/@sarafiskcoachhttps://www.youtube.com/@sarafiskcoaching1333What happens inside the free Stop People Pleasing Facebook Community?
