What if your biggest career decisions could be guided by something deeper than spreadsheets and SWOT analyses? My guest Christina Trifero went from Silicon Valley tech executive to spiritual business coaching entrepreneur, and her journey of intuition development after 40 will challenge everything you think you know about inner authority. She literally got paid by her company to leave California (yes, really), found her dream home in Georgia by "challenging the universe," and now helps executives release control while building million-dollar businesses. In today's episode, Christina breaks down her practical approach to spirituality and entrepreneurship, sharing how she helps high-achieving women trust their gut without losing their analytical edge. We dive deep into the messy, beautiful process of major life transitions, why most spiritual influencers make her skin crawl, and how to tell the difference between intuition and just wanting something really, really badly.What You'll Learn:How to distinguish between real intuition and ego-driven desires (spoiler: it has nothing to do with urgency)The "challenging the universe" technique that landed Christina her dream job relocation packageWhy neutrality and non-attachment are the secret weapons of successful spiritual strategyHow to spot fake spiritual coaches who prey on vulnerable people seeking transformationThe three levels of surrender work that Christina uses with her executive clientsWhy your nervous system needs to be regulated before you can access clear inner authorityHow spiritual bypassing keeps you stuck in quicksand instead of real growthThe unexpected connection between feeling grief deeply and experiencing massive joyChristina's story proves that following your intuition doesn't mean throwing logic out the window—it means integrating both for decisions that actually serve your highest good.

You've read the books. Saved the Reels. Listened to the podcasts. Taken the courses. But deep down, you're still stuck—and wondering why all the “growth” isn't transforming your life or business.In this solo episode, George delivers a blunt but loving reality check: you might be addicted to the idea of transformation, not the embodiment of it. If you've been collecting knowledge but avoiding the uncomfortable work of becoming the person you say you want to be, this one is for you.This episode is raw, personal, and deeply practical. George calls himself out—and calls you up—with tools to move from passive consumption to lasting transformation.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy constant consumption can be the biggest block to real growthThe difference between being entertained by growth vs. committed to itThe painful truth behind personal development addictionHow to break the “information trap” and build momentumThe 4-question framework that bridges knowing to becomingHow to embody transformation even when it feels boring, inconvenient, or hard Key Takeaways✔️Transformation doesn't come from what you know—it comes from what you live.✔️Consuming knowledge can feel productive, but it's often just avoidance.✔️Real growth requires discomfort, repetition, and integrity.✔️You don't need a new strategy—you need to use the key you already have.✔️Stop waiting for the perfect moment. Embodiment starts with one rep, one choice.✔️Growth is sacred—and often invisible in the beginning.

Welcome to Episode 55 of the Freedom Factory Podcast! This week, host Brandon Cunningham delivers a vital message on one of the most overlooked yet pivotal actions in network marketing: launching new business partners effectively—and why the first 24 hours make or break momentum.Too often, entrepreneurs celebrate the signup and then stall, leaving their newest recruits to fend for themselves in a sea of links, training portals, back-office dashboards, and product info. But Brandon explains that freedom and leverage are built through duplication, and duplication begins with a structured, hands-on launch experience—not training, not education, but action.Brandon shares exactly what to do, what to avoid, and how to instill confidence in new partners with an onboarding system that works. If you've ever wondered why some teams explode while others fizzle, this episode spells it out with energy, clarity, and real-world tactics.

What do you do when the dream you've chased your entire life suddenly stops feeling right?By the age of 17, Miron Pingasov had raced at 150 mph, broken bones, lost a close friend on the track, and watched his childhood passion for racing turn into something more political than purposeful. Faced with the weight of expectation and the pull of something deeper, Miron made a decision most wouldn't at his age – he walked away.In this episode, Miron opens up about the grief, clarity, and courage it took to choose a new path. His story is a reminder that we're allowed to outgrow our dreams and that starting over doesn't mean failure. It can actually be the beginning of real freedom.Three things you'll take away from Miron's story:How letting go of a lifelong dream can make space for something more meaningfulWhy early failure is actually a gift that accelerates growthThe power of being a sponge – and listening when others share wisdomAbout Miron PingasovMiron Pingasov has raced open-wheel cars at 150 mph, flown solo at 10,000 feet, and co-founded businesses in real estate, clothing, and media – all before turning 18. Now a student at Syracuse University pursuing a degree in Aerospace Engineering, he's also the co-founder of PT Development in Florida and works alongside his former racing sponsor on litigation funding initiatives in the UK.Miron believes that the earlier we fail, the sooner we learn – and the sooner we learn, the sooner we succeed. Whether behind the wheel, in a boardroom, or on campus, he brings speed, structure, and a deep curiosity for growth.

In today's episode, I sit down with my incredible friend Adriana Martinez—an entrepreneur and a wife who has built and run successful businesses. What makes Adriana's story so powerful is not just her business acumen, but the deep, personal transformation she's gone through in her journey as a leader. She's someone who leads with both heart and mind, and in this episode, we dive deep into the real struggles, the lessons learned, and the challenges of leadership that don't often get talked about.About Adriana Adriana is the owner of Revel Workshop, a luxury salon focused on elevating stylists careers through top tier education and mentorship. As a personal and professional budgeting coach, she helps individuals and small business owners take control of their finances and build sustainable success. Passionate about connecting people and fostering growth, Adriana thrives on empowering others to achieve financial freedom and business excellence.The Constant Battle of LeadershipAdriana and I discussed how, in her journey as a business owner, she's learned the hard way that success is not just about achieving a goal—it's about navigating relationships. She runs two salons now, but no longer takes clients herself. Instead, she depends on the team she's built. And as any entrepreneur knows, that reliance on others can be terrifying.Adriana explained that her success is directly tied to the success of those around her. If an employee leaves, it sends a ripple effect through her business, and it's hard not to take it personally. She wants the best for her team, but at the same time, she can't help but feel disappointed and question her role as a leader when someone walks away.The Struggle with Loyalty and AbandonmentOne of the most real and raw moments came when Adriana admitted her fear of abandonment—something that I think many business owners can relate to. She's fiercely loyal, and she wants to offer the same loyalty in return. But when someone leaves, it can feel like a personal betrayal.This led us into a powerful conversation about capacity—both the capacity of those who work with you and the capacity of yourself as a leader. I asked her the tough question: Do you really expect everyone to match your capacity?Her answer was insightful: Not necessarily, but it's hard to see them leave because it feels like failure.I reminded her that no one else will ever be able to match her level of commitment and capacity, especially if they are not in the same business-owner role. And the difference between what she expects and what others can deliver is where the disappointment lies.The Hard Truth of Leadership: Not Everyone StaysAdriana shared that she knows logically that employees leave because it's time for them to grow, and that they are not abandoning her. But the emotional side of her—fueled by that deep sense of loyalty—makes it feel like a personal loss.We both agreed that this is an inherent part of business ownership. You pour so much into people, and when they leave, it can feel like everything you've built is crumbling. But the reality is, it's just part of the process. People come, people go. As leaders, we must embrace this as part of the natural flow of growth.The Importance of Words of AffirmationOne of the key moments in our conversation was when Adriana admitted something that she had long avoided—she is, in fact, a words of affirmation person. As much as she resisted it, I could tell that hearing those words of appreciation made a difference for her. She shared how she does everything for people, often with no expectation of recognition, but deep down, she craves acknowledgment.I pointed out that we often mistake confirmation for affirmation. Confirmation simply states that something is true—like a ticket for a flight. It's factual, impersonal. Affirmation, on the other hand, acknowledges the goodness of what we do and who we are. It's not about fluff—it's about recognizing effort, commitment, and value. Adriana hadn't fully embraced that she needs affirmation too, but the more we unpacked this, the clearer it became.Creating a Safe Space for VulnerabilityOne of the things I admire most about Adriana is her ability to create safety for others. She may not always want or seek affirmation, but she unknowingly creates a space where her team and clients feel safe to share, grow, and even leave when the time is right. That safety comes from trust, and I encouraged her to allow herself to experience the same kind of trust in return.Leaders often think they have to protect themselves from getting hurt, but what if we created spaces where we could allow ourselves to be seen and affirmed too?Letting Go of ControlAdriana also shared her internal battle with letting go of control. For a long time, she thought that to keep things running smoothly, she needed to handle it all herself. She resisted relying on others. But through the years, she's realized that leadership doesn't mean doing everything yourself. It means trusting others, and embracing the idea that not everyone will stay forever, and that's okay.I encouraged her to celebrate the contributions of her team, and to reframe the way she looks at people leaving. Rather than feeling abandoned, what if she saw it as the natural progression of their growth? They are moving on to the next phase of their life, and her role was to help them get there.The Takeaway: Safe Spaces and GrowthThe most powerful lesson in this episode? We need to start seeing ourselves for who we are and what we're doing. We need to recognize that, as leaders, we are not just responsible for the success of our business—we're also responsible for creating environments that allow people to thrive, grow, and sometimes move on.Adriana's story is a testament to the power of vulnerability, clarity, and affirmation. As leaders, we must be open to receiving those things just as much as we offer them.Resources MentionedJoin my free leadership workshop: https://rockygarza.com/confidence Follow Adriana on Instagram: @adrianaymartinezAdriana's website: https://revelworkshop.com Key Timestamps00:00 Introduction to Unfinished Leadership00:39 Adriana Martinez's Journey and Challenges01:27 The Struggles of Relying on Others02:47 Balancing Personal and Professional Relationships04:34 The Emotional Impact of Employee Turnover09:02 Seeking Affirmation and Appreciation17:24 Creating a Safe and Loyal Work Environment19:01 Navigating Business Challenges20:25 Reframing Employee Departures21:26 Creating a Supportive Culture22:36 Balancing Vulnerability and Strength24:38 The Importance of Affirmation25:36 Building Trust and Safety27:14 Embracing Words of Affirmation34:36 Final Reflections and EncouragementTo join Rocky for his next free virtual event, go to https://rockygarza.com/beyondsuccessSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/trgs/donations

He built a mission-driven brand that captured global attention, made electric vehicles desirable, and forced legacy automakers to rethink everything. But lately, his leadership has taken a turn—and it's raising serious questions. The mission hasn't changed, but the behavior around it has.In this special solo episode, Jan Griffiths lays out five leadership lessons for Elon—not out of criticism, but from a deep respect for what he's accomplished and a firm belief in what the industry still needs from him.She starts with mission. Tesla's purpose has united people around the world. But when Elon supports people who oppose that mission, it creates confusion. You can't promote a cause while backing those who go against it.Then comes culture. Elon's ability to identify problems and push for solutions is extraordinary, but intensity without empathy creates fear, which kills creativity. If the goal is innovation, leaders must build environments where people feel safe to contribute and not scared to fail.Jan then challenges the idea of leading by example. Sleeping on the factory floor shows commitment, but expecting others to follow that model isn't sustainable. Real modeling means setting a standard not just in work ethic but also in behavior and how you show up in moments of crisis.Micromanagement is next. Being able to solve problems doesn't mean owning every decision. The more decisions a leader owns, the fewer their teams can make. Jan warns that this behavior ultimately traps leaders in a loop where nothing moves without them.Finally: identity. Without knowing who you are as a leader, everything else starts to fall apart. Jan points to tools like the 21 Traits of Authentic Leadership and Doug Conant's leadership blueprint to help any leader build that internal alignment.Elon has done what few believed possible. But the chaos, political noise, and online disputes only adds friction at a time when the real threat is global. The industry doesn't need noise. It needs the focused, driven leader who started it all.Themes discussed in this episode:The disconnect between Tesla's mission and Elon Musk's public alignmentsThe impact of fear-based leadership culture on innovation and employee engagementHow micromanagement affects team performance and company growthThe cultural transformation needed to support EV and software-defined vehicle innovationHow a CEO's behavior sets the tone for company cultureThe importance of psychological safety in building high-performing teamsHow public distractions and controversy weaken brand focusWhy the auto industry needs focused leadership amid rising global competitionYour HostJan Griffiths is the architect of cultural change in the automotive industry.
