Being present in a group of people can feel uncomfortable, and it can be intimidating–scary, even–to open up and be vulnerable with others. But as humans, we need meaningful connection. It is truly one of the most powerful tools we have for growth.In this episode, I'm joined by my friend and colleague, tapping coach Melanie Fay. Together, we are hosting The Deep Reset Retreat this October, and today we're inviting you into a conversation about the power of being present and having meaningful connection with others–two things that make an in-person women's retreat such an incredible opportunity for change.We have all felt the effects of isolation over the last several years. While virtual tools expanded our world in many ways, the pandemic also caused us to lose touch with the benefits of in-person connection and the fabric of a community. Many of us continue to feel the impact of this disconnection today.Increasing connection in your daily life is important, but there is nothing quite like stepping into a dedicated space for growth and belonging. When you step away from your familiar roles and responsibilities, you create space to reset and refresh. You experience the safety that allows you to be fully present and find clarity.At The Deep Reset Retreat, a group of women will gather with intention—with the desire to heal, grow, and expand. In such a genuine space, you can feel the energy of support and connection. You can feel the permission to simply be yourself. And from that place, what you most need for your next chapter naturally comes forward. I can't wait for you to hear all about it in this episode.What you'll learn:How isolation brings opportunities to see where we're unfulfilled and make a changeThe power of newness and how a fresh space allows you to see yourself differentlyWhy a sense of belonging is essential for the empowerment that comes from being fully yourselfHow meaningful connection provides the safety and permission we need for growthHow your capacity for being present expands when you travel to a space dedicated to slowing downYou can read the full show notes here.About Melanie FayMelanie is a gifted EFT (Tapping) practitioner and healer who specializes in helping women release emotional wounds from the past to step boldly into their present.

In this episode of Durand on Demand, Dave unpacks the most powerful force in the world: decision. Every part of life flows from the choices we make — but it's not just the primary decisions (to take a job, get married, or start something) that matter. It's the secondary decisions and recommitments that determine whether we thrive or fail.Recorded live, Dave illustrates this through the story of King David — a leader who chose comfort over adventure and fell into folly — and shows how the same dynamic plays out in our own lives. The path forward, he explains, lies in the virtues: prudence, justice, fortitude, and temperance.This talk also explores the universal desires of every human being — goodness, beauty, truth, and unity — and why denying truth or lowering standards leads to distortion and decline. At its core, this is a call to live a life of adventure, virtue, and reality.✅ What You'll Learn:Why decision is the most powerful force in your lifeThe difference between primary and secondary decisionsWhy comfort leads to folly and adventure fosters growthHow prudence, justice, fortitude, and temperance shape optimizationThe universal human desires: goodness, beauty, truth, and unityWhy rejecting objective truth destroys clarity and characterThis episode is both a wake-up call and a roadmap: choose adventure, embrace virtue, and ground yourself in truth.

Welcome to Episode 63 of the Freedom Factory Podcast! In this episode, host Brandon Cunningham shares one of the most powerful frameworks for building a thriving network marketing business: the 5 & 5 Rule.After nearly 16 years in the profession—front row, front seat—Brandon has seen what works and what doesn't. And while goals are great, it's standards that shape your future. This episode is a masterclass in setting the right standards to create leverage, duplication, and long-term growth.Brandon breaks down the two non-negotiables every leader must adopt:Keep 5 active, commissionable frontline partners at all timesGet those 5 to every major destination eventWhy? Because events build belief, and belief drives behavior. When your partners attend events, they come home with renewed energy, clarity, and commitment—and that translates into hours of productivity you didn't have to personally invest. It's the ultimate leverage.Whether you're just starting out or leading a large organization, this episode will help you reset your standards, reignite your team, and build a business that grows with or without you.

Hello, my love

Jon spent 3 years building Gamma with barely any traction—just a few hundred users after burning millions. Then ChatGPT dropped. In desperation, he pivoted to AI-powered presentations in March 2023 with one year of runway left. What happened next was insane: Paul Graham publicly mocked their launch tweet calling it worthless—then it went viral. They went from 2,000 signups a day to 60,000. Their servers crashed for three days, but when they came back online, panicked users threw $50K at them thinking they needed to pay to make it work. Within two months of launching payments, they hit $1M ARR and became cashflow positive. This is the raw story of how a dying startup caught the AI lightning and never looked back.Why You Should Listen:How to survive 3 years with no traction.Why 80% hype and 20% value can still build a real business The exact onboarding flow that turned 5% activation into viral growthHow negative viral engagement can still drive massive revenueThe difference between 10x better and 50% betterKeywords:Gamma, Jon Noronha, AI presentations, product market fit, pivot to AI, viral growth, Paul Graham, ChatGPT, cashflow positive, productivity startup00:00:00 Intro00:02:15 Why presentations haven't changed in 40 years00:11:55 User research reveals the real problem00:26:26 The market crashes and runway shrinks00:34:32 ChatGPT drops and everything changes00:43:19 Paul Graham trashes the launch tweet00:48:59 Going viral by accident00:51:33 60,000 signups a day breaks everything00:55:07 Hitting $1M ARR in 2 months00:58:47 Endurance is everythingSend me a message to let me know what you think!

You don't need to know the trade to own the business. Adam Goldman helps people see why franchising might be the smartest move they've never considered.We brought on Adam Goldman, a franchise consultant who's seen hundreds of folks jump ship from corporate life and into something way messier and way more fulfilling. From office cleaning to water restoration to lighting installs, Adam's not just watching the shift from white collar to blue collar he's in the thick of it.He breaks down the generational motivations behind franchise ownership, from 20 somethings chasing belonging to 60 year olds chasing purpose. We dig into what kind of franchise actually works for people who want part-time freedom without giving up real income, and how culture not just cash is what makes or breaks the fit. Adam's got no shortage of examples about the myths of franchising, from startup costs to lifestyle expectations, especially in industries most people wouldn't brag about at a cocktail party.Highlights:The rise of white collar workers buying blue collar franchisesWhat makes water restoration and lighting unexpectedly hot businessesWhy younger owners want flexibility—but franchisors want growthHow culture trumps industry in finding franchise fitThe money (and the mindset) in “unsexy” service businessesMake sure you're subscribed and share the episode with someone who's ready to stop asking permission.Get in touch with Adam:WebsiteLinkedInYoutubeGet in touch with us:Check out the Blue Collar BS website.Steve Doyle:WebsiteLinkedInEmailBrad Herda:WebsiteLinkedInEmailThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podtrac - https://analytics.podtrac.com/privacy-policy-gdrpOP3 - https://op3.dev/privacy

Have you ever dreamed about taking a three-week vacation without your business falling apart?Or maybe just getting a full weekend without checking Slack, Asana, or inboxes that feel like they multiply overnight?Friend, if that feels impossible... I want you to know: it's not. You just need better systems.In this solo episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes of what actually allows businesses to scale beyond 7-figures: not magic, not hustle... but systems that work without you.I've worked with business owners making $5M, $8M, and beyond—and you'd be shocked at how many of them are still stuck working in the weeds. And guess what? Most of them have one big thing in common: no solid systems.Here's the truth: you have to earn the right to climb out of the work. And you earn it by building systems that empower your team to succeed without you micromanaging every detail.In this episode, I answer real Instagram questions from fellow entrepreneurs (like Alex and Rachel) who are overwhelmed, overworked, and asking: “How do I get OUT of the day-to-day and INTO scaling?”Together we break down:The myth that systems are something you “do later”Why creating SOPs isn't optional if you want to scaleHow we use tools like Notion and Asana to make our systems airtightMy personal 4-step delegation framework I learned from Teresa LoweAnd YES—I even walk you through an actual SOP from my teamThis isn't just a pep talk. It's a practical guide for how to stop being the bottleneck and start building a business that grows without burning you out.You were never meant to build a business that feels like a burden.Let's change that—one system at a time.Click play to hear all of this and:[00:01] Why being overwhelmed is usually a systems problem (not a hustle problem) [00:52] The cost of not having systems: low profit, constant stress, and no scalability [02:44] Why there's never a perfect time to start building systems [03:37] The hard truth: you must earn the right to delegate [05:24] The 4-Let Delegation Framework that changed everything [06:26] Behind the scenes: Our project management SOP process [07:25] How we use Notion + Asana to build repeatable workflows [08:40] Final encouragement: systems aren't sexy, but they will set you freeListen to Related Episodes:How to Create Team Systems and Operations That Simplify Scaling and GrowthHow to Reclaim Your Time and Boost Business Productivity with Nick Sonnenberg

In this episode of Durand on Demand, Dave challenges the way we think about potential. At first, being told you have potential feels like a compliment. But at some point, it becomes an insult — because potential is just unused ability.

Using the Big Five framework, he breaks down the first trait — Openness to Experience — and shows how both excess and deficiency hold you back.✅ What You'll Learn:Why “potential” eventually stops being a complimentThe difference between unused ability and real growthHow optimizing personality unlocks opportunityThe role of Openness in shaping success and creativityWhy balance — not excess — is the true marker of optimizationThis short, high-impact episode delivers a wake-up call: potential without optimization is wasted.

If you're doing the work but feel stuck, burned out, or frustrated that you're not seeing results, this episode is for you. Learn why real growth often feels slow — and how to trust what's happening beneath the surface.Doing all the right things but still not seeing the breakthrough? You're not failing — you're recalibrating. This episode explores why true transformation often feels quiet, what happens when your nervous system starts rewiring, and how to trust the slower rhythms of identity-aligned growth. Includes a personal story, neuroscience insight, a founder example, and a grounded recalibration practice.In This Episode, We Cover:Why progress often feels invisible when you're growing from identityThe neuroscience behind quiet seasons of transformationHow to tell the difference between emotional adrenaline and calibrated trustJulie's behind-the-scenes experience of building the ILR pathway in stillnessWhat founder Melissa Urban did during her “invisible” yearsWhy small, quiet shifts build sustainable growthHow to stay steady when the results haven't caught up yetToday's Micro-RecalibrationAsk yourself:Where am I equating quiet with failure?What has shifted internally that I haven't acknowledged yet?What would it look like to honor my growth — even if no one else sees it?Progress isn't always visible — but that doesn't mean it's not real.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Alignment doesn't eliminate cost, but it secures covering. Learn how God's protection holds you steady in the weight of obedience when growth stretches further than expected.You said yes.You obeyed.And now you feel the stretch more deeply than you expected.In this Sunday episode of Identity-Level Recalibration, Julie Holly brings vertical clarity into one of the most costly — and most misunderstood — phases of recalibration: the spiritual tension of costly obedience.Julie reframes the weight not as evidence of misalignment, but as an invitation to deeper covering and dependency. You'll see why growth requires spiritual recalibration alongside nervous system and identity alignment — and why covering is active even when provision hasn't fully arrived.She shares personal stories of walking through these stretches in her own obedience journey, along with the story of Paul — a man who lived recalibration at both human and eternal levels.This episode helps leaders move from fear of exposure to full trust in God's covering — even when the stretch remains.In This Episode, We Cover:Why alignment often stretches further than you expectedWhy cost doesn't automatically mean misalignmentILR's full integration of identity, nervous system, and vertical alignmentThe difference between emotional weight and spiritual coveringJulie Holly's personal stories of costly obedience in her ILR journeyPaul's recalibration and enduring obedience despite uncertainty (Acts 9 and beyond)Psalm 91:4 and Psalm 139:5 — God's covering imagery during growthHow dependency creates deeper spiritual stability during leadership recalibrationToday's Micro-Recalibration:Ask yourself:Where have I misinterpreted cost as abandonment?Where do I need to re-anchor my trust that covering is already being provided?Reframe: The cost may feel heavy, but I am not exposed.

My life-changing annual event, The Summit of Greatness, is happening September 12 & 13, 2025. Get your ticket today!When I started practicing this ONE THING every single morning for seven days, money showed up, new opportunities appeared, and people called me from years past bringing opportunities to me. It felt like success and abundance was chasing me instead of me chasing success. I didn't have to change my job or goals, but I did shift something fundamental: I stopped letting the world grab me before I centered myself. Too many of us reach for our phones the moment we wake up, allowing chaos and dopamine to infect our energetic system before we've even taken a breath for ourselves. I share the seven daily practices that transformed my energy and attracted incredible opportunities, from conquering my fear of public speaking to launching The School of Greatness podcast with zero experience. These aren't complicated rituals - they're simple shifts in how you start your day, set intentions, reflect with compassion, and visualize your future self that will help you step into the person you're proud of.Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!The Greatness Mindset: Unlock the Power of Your Mind and Live Your Best Life TodayThe Mask of Masculinity: How Men Can Embrace Vulnerability, Create Strong Relationships, and Live Their Fullest LivesThe School of Greatness: A Real-World Guide to Living Bigger, Loving Deeper, and Leaving a LegacyIn this episode you will learn:How centering yourself for just a few minutes each morning before touching your phone creates an energetic anchor that keeps you grounded all dayWhy setting one daily intention transforms your reality more than any to-do list ever will - and how energy flows where intention goesThe power of reflecting on your day with compassion and curiosity instead of judgment to accelerate your growthHow to rewire your identity by recognizing that you don't get what you want - you get what you believe you actually areWhy being grateful for what's not guaranteed opens the door for more abundance to flow into your lifeFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1801For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Lewis Howes – greatness.lnk.to/1798SCRory Vaden – greatness.lnk.to/1792SCDean Graziosi – greatness.lnk.to/1766SC Get more from Lewis!
