What if your old leads were actually your best leads? In this episode, I sit down with Daniel Popple, CFC at Paradigm Franchising, who used Clienttether to close three franchise deals—in under a year. How'd he do it? Spoiler: it wasn't magic… it was automation, consistency, and a willingness to learn. Here's what we break down: ✅ How Daniel reengaged cold leads using simple automation—and why consistency made all the difference ✅ Why you don't need to be a tech wizard to win (just willing to dive in) ✅ Why more consultants are ditching other CRMs for Clienttether—and what makes it the go-to platform for franchise pros If you're a franchise consultant looking for that edge, this episode is your playbook.

After surviving a relationship with someone diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder, she found herself so conditioned to fear conflict that even bringing up the smallest concern felt impossible. In her new marriage to Lewis, she'd create elaborate stories with salt and pepper shakers rather than simply say what was bothering her - anything to avoid what she'd been trained to expect: explosive reactions to the slightest issue. Her journey from that hypervigilant state to healthy communication reveals just how deeply past trauma can rewire our ability to be honest with the people we love most.What makes this conversation so powerful isn't just Martha's vulnerability about her past, but the practical wisdom she and Lewis share about creating safety in relationships. They dive into their approach to "conscious conflict resolution" - a way of addressing problems that doesn't put anyone in defensive mode but instead opens the door for real understanding. If you've ever found yourself avoiding difficult conversations, storing up resentment, or struggling to speak your truth in love, their insights about moving from elaborate analogies to direct, loving communication could transform how you connect with others.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Most couples rush into marriage without building the foundation that actually matters, but Martha Higareda Howes, accomplished actress and my wife, shows us what intentional relationship preparation looks like. We dive deep into our year-long marriage preparation journey, revealing the workshops, therapy sessions, and difficult conversations that created unshakeable unity before we even said "I do." Martha vulnerably shares how she learned to break free from controlling patterns rooted in childhood safety mechanisms, while I open up about requiring acceptance over perfection from a partner. The most powerful moment comes when Martha demonstrates true partnership by choosing our marriage agreements over family pressure during our wedding day crisis, proving that real love means protecting the relationship you're building together. Anyone dating seriously, engaged, or married will walk away with a blueprint for creating the kind of relationship that thrives under pressure rather than crumbles.Martha on InstagramThe 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 to break free from controlling relationship patterns that stem from childhood safety mechanismsThe marriage preparation program framework that creates unshakeable foundations before your wedding dayWhy accepting your partner completely is more powerful than trying to change themHow to navigate family boundaries when creating your new marriage unitThe conflict resolution method that prevents resentment from building over timeFor more information go to https://www.lewishowes.com/1788For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Dr. Caroline Fleck – greatness.lnk.to/1774SCMatthew Hussey  – greatness.lnk.to/1782SCStephen Chandler – greatness.lnk.to/1756SC Get more from Lewis!

Today we are speaking with Giizh Sarah Agaton Howes. Howes is an award-winning Anishinaabe creator, artist and organizer from Fond Du Lac reservation and Muscogree Creek. She's the CEO of Heart Berry, a contemporary Ojibwe Design brand that offers wool blankets, apparel, gifts and accessories rooted in Howes's beadwork and Ojibwe floral designs. Giizh was raised by an artist mother but never thought about herself as one until she realized art wasn't just paintings in a museum but the cultural traditions from her Ojibwe community. She started with beading and moccasin making. That led to her teaching workshops so others could become cultural makers too. She shares the origin story of Heart Berry, which grew out of a desire to see Ojibwe designs translated into contemporary apparel and to take back the wool blanket as a Native craft.  She also talks about a recent mural project on the Cloquet bandshell, finding art that we love and that loves us back, and course correcting after a wrong turn.  Giizh lives in Sawyer with her family. These days, she's experiencing the bittersweet emotions of a parent who has recently seen her first child graduate from high school.

This week on Overdrive Radio we track back to the Mid-America Trucking Show and the big news for the trucking community from podcast sponsor Howes. The Howes Hall of Fame added its 12th member when it honored Mother Trucker Yoga proprietor and fitness and wellness coach Hope Zvara at the show. You heard part of Zvara's story when she was featured here on Overdrive Radio in conversation with Long Haul Paul Marhoefer a couple years back: https://www.overdriveonline.com/overdrive-radio/podcast/15448049/the-qualityoflife-benefits-of-movement-introducing-hope-zvara There, queried about the scourge of anxiety, depression and other mental health ailments throughout America, she asked a simple question -- "What's if it's not a mental health crisis? What if it's a movement crisis?" In that podcast, and here, she detailed her step-by-step program for fitness through basic yoga techniques drivers can do in-cab, around the truck, at points throughout a day for an approachable journey toward better physical health. Mental health, too. Zvara well knows the connections between the two and isn't shy of stressing them routinely with those she works with. She's combated mental stressors of various natures in her own life, using yoga practice toward that end. And she's now worked with an untold number of individual truck drivers to help them achieve their own goals. We got a little tutorial in her brand of “no mat necessary" yoga at the start of the Trucking Solutions Group's talk in the East Hall out at MATS on the final day. She led attendees through a series of stretches aimed simply at relieving the neck and upper-body tension so many of us face after a long day at the wheel or, in my case, typing away at the desk. Today on the podcast, hear the audio of Zvara's instruction on that mini-routine at the tail end, and otherwise buckle up for her story of helping truckers help themselves in health and wellness. And though Zvara's program is designed for simplicity, she's also well aware it's not exactly a simple matter for any of us. Hear how yoga and general phyiscal well-being got her through her own crisis, and into the work for which she's now honored as the latest member the Howes Hall of Fame. Nominate a deserving trucking industry participant for the Hall yourself, and browse all so honored todate, via https://howesproducts.com/hof Find Hope Zvara's Mother Trucker Yoga effort at this link, where today you can download a free guide to 11 helpful stretches: https://mothertruckeryoga.com

Reskilling is high on the agenda for many organisations, but how do you do it reliably—and at scale? In this episode, Molly Howes returns to share the incredible progress of the Aviva Foundry, an ambitious initiative to upskill employees from Customer Support roles into Digital careers, alongside Alex Price, who was a successful participant in the program. They discuss what’s changed since their last appearance, the processes that have made large-scale reskilling successful, and how they’ve ensured employees aren’t just exposed to learning but are truly ready for new roles. They also dive into the challenges of expanding the program internationally, launching new initiatives like the Data Upskilling Bootcamp, and securing buy-in from stakeholders. Packed with insights and real-world lessons, this episode is essential for L&D professionals looking to move beyond training and deliver reskilling programs that change lives and drive business success.

Access the L&D Maturity Model here - https://360learning.com/maturity-model KEY TAKEAWAYS The Aviva Foundry trains people for emerging roles and reskills those whose roles are no longer needed. The Foundry is available to anyone who wants to retrain. The key is really understanding the skills stakeholders need and focusing on the way your organisation works. Learners are supported by people who do the role they are training for and apply what they learn in practical ways. Colleagues that reskill bring something fresh to their new roles. The Foundry approach is now in Canada and works there too. Take the leap and set up your own Foundry. BEST MOMENTS “If those roles are no longer there for them, they get the opportunity to re-skill.” “This isn't us hand-picking people … this is people saying I want to learn.” “You have to build that trust.” “We knew that if we started making that progress, we'd learn.” Molly Howes Molly is Foundry and GenAI Capability Lead at Aviva having joined the company in 2015 and transitioned into roles including Team Leader and Digital Product Owner. The Aviva Foundry being a learning community, developing the knowledge and skills Aviva need to succeed in an increasingly digitised world. Alex Price Alex is Group Brand Expression & Design Manager at Aviva having successfully transitioned from a Broker Development Associate via the Aviva Foundry program.
