 Unlocking High Ticket Sales: The Power of Certainty and Follow-UpWelcome back to the Roots to Riches podcast, where we explore the intersection of natural healing and unstoppable success. I'm your host, Justin Benton, and today we're diving deep into the world of high-ticket offers and how to convert prospects into clients.In this episode, I share my personal journey of investing in high-ticket masterminds like Russell Brunson's Inner Circle and Joe Soto's mastermind during the early days of COVID. These investments, although financially challenging, were pivotal in transforming my business and understanding the digital marketing landscape.We discuss the importance of nurturing potential clients who don't immediately sign up for high-ticket offers. The key takeaway is that the fortune is in the follow-up. I explain how my company, Convert High Ticket, helps entrepreneurs by setting up AI-driven nurture campaigns that include emails, SMS, Messenger, and even phone calls. The goal is to maintain engagement and address any self-limiting beliefs that might be holding prospects back.I also delve into the three main types of self-limiting beliefs: internal, external, and vehicle beliefs. Understanding these can help you better address the concerns of your prospects and increase your conversion rates. Additionally, I share insights from NLP frameworks on how to persuade both internal and external decision-makers.One of the most exciting developments I've come across is the availability of financing options specifically designed for high-ticket offers. These options can remove financial barriers for prospects, allowing them to invest in your high-ticket programs and achieve faster results.Finally, I touch on the importance of consistent follow-up, noting that the average number of touchpoints before a prospect converts is 17. If you're not following up at least that many times, you're missing out on potential clients who genuinely need your help.As I wrap up, I share a bit about my personal life, including my daughter's volleyball tournament and my love for the Caribbean. I also invite listeners to reach out to me via email if they have any questions or want to learn more about high-ticket conversions. Email Justin at sales@converthighticket.com with any questions.  TIMESTAMP00:00:00 - Introduction and Personal Story00:00:41 - Welcome to Roots to Riches00:01:03 - Boosting Health and Wealth00:01:14 - Convert High Ticket Journey00:01:47 - Nurture Campaigns and High Ticket Offers00:03:05 - Importance of Follow-Up00:04:10 - AI Models and Automation00:04:31 - The Power of Phone Calls00:06:30 - Overcoming Self-Limiting Beliefs00:08:10 - Certainty and Resourcefulness00:10:00 - Addressing Internal and External Beliefs00:11:15 - NLP Frameworks: Internal vs. External00:13:32 - Following Up with Prospects00:14:04 - Financing Options for High Ticket Offers00:16:15 - Personal Experience with Masterminds00:18:14 - Empathy and Certainty in Sales00:20:32 - Structuring Financing to Remove Resistance00:22:08 - Importance of Consistent Follow-Up00:24:00 - Personal Updates and Future Plans00:25:13 - Contact Information and Closing Remarks Thank you for tuning in to the Miracle Plant Podcast.

[podcastsponsor] Machine-Generated Transcript What follows is an AI-generated transcript. The transcript may contain errors and is not a substitute for listening to the episode. Christopher S. Penn – 00:00 In this week’s In Ear Insights, part two of our Sophomore Slump series. Boy, that’s a mouthful. Katie Robbert – 00:07 We love alliteration. Christopher S. Penn – 00:09 Yahoo. Last week we talked about what the sophomore slump is, what it looks like, and some of the reasons for it—why people are not getting value out of AI and the challenges. This week, Katie, the sophomore slump, you hear a lot in the music industry? Someone has a hit album and then their sophomore album, it didn’t go. So they have to figure out what’s next. When you think about companies trying to get value out of AI and they’ve hit this sophomore slump, they had early easy wins and then the easy wins evaporated, and they see all the stuff on LinkedIn and wherever else, like, “Oh, look, I made a million dollars in 28 minutes with generative AI.” And they’re, “What are we doing wrong?” Christopher S. Penn – 00:54 How do you advise somebody on ways to think about getting out of their sophomore slump? What’s their next big hit? Katie Robbert – 01:03 So the first thing I do is let’s take a step back and see what happened. A lot of times when someone hits that sophomore slump and that second version of, “I was really successful the first time, why can’t I repeat it?” it’s because they didn’t evolve. They’re, “I’m going to do exactly what I did the first time.” But your audience is, “I saw that already. I want something new, I want something different.” Not the exact same thing you gave me a year ago. That’s not what I’m interested in paying for and paying attention to. Katie Robbert – 01:36 So you start to lose that authority, that trust, because it’s why the term one hit wonder exists—you have a one hit wonder, you have a sophomore slump. You have all of these terms, all to say, in order for people to stay interested, you have to stay interesting. And by that, you need to evolve, you need to change. But not just, “I know today I’m going to color my hair purple.” Okay, cool. But did anybody ask for that? Did anybody say, “That’s what I want from you, Katie? I want purple hair, not different authoritative content on how to integrate AI into my business.” That means I’m getting it wrong because I didn’t check in with my customer base. Katie Robbert – 02:22 I didn’t check in with my audience to say, “Okay, two years ago we produced some blog posts using AI.” And you thought that was great. What do you need today? And I think that’s where I would start: let’s take a step back. What was our original goal? Hopefully you use the 5Ps, but if you didn’t, let’s go ahead and start using them. For those who don’t know, 5Ps are: purpose—what’s the question you’re trying to answer? What’s the problem you’re trying to solve? People—who is involved in this, both internally and externally? Especially here, you want to understand what your customers want, not just what you think you need or what you think they need. Process—how are you doing this in a repeatable, scalable way? Katie Robbert – 03:07 Platform—what tools are you using, but also how are you disseminating? And then performance—how are you measuring success? Did you answer the question? Did you solve the problem? So two years later, a lot of companies are saying, “I’m stalled out.” “I wanted to optimize, I wanted to innovate, I wanted to get adoption.” And none of those things are happening. “I got maybe a little bit of optimization, I got a little bit of adoption and no innovation.” So the first thing I would do is step back, run them through the 5P exercise, and try to figure out what were you trying to do originally? Why did you bring AI into your organization? One of the things Ginny Dietrich said is that using AI isn’t the goal and people start to misframe it as, “Well,” Katie Robbert – 04:01 “We wanted to use AI because everyone else is doing it.” We saw this question, Chris, in, I think, the CMI Slack group a couple weeks ago, where someone was saying, “My CEO is, ‘We gotta use AI.’ That’s the goal.” And it’s, “But that’s not a goal.” Christopher S. Penn – 04:18 Yeah, that’s saying, “We’re gonna use blenders. It’s all blenders.” And you’re, “But we’re a sushi shop.” Katie Robbert – 04:24 But why? And people should be asking, “Why do you need to use a blender? Why do you need to use AI? What is it you’re trying to do?” And I think that when we talk about the sophomore slump, that’s the part that people get stuck on: they can’t tell you why they still. Two years later—two years ago, it was perfectly acceptable to start using AI because it was shiny, it was new, everybody was trying it, they were experimenting. But as you said in part one of this podcast series, people are still stuck in using what should be the R&D version of AI. So therefore, the outputs they’re getting are still experimental, are still very buggy, still need a lot of work, fine-tuning, because they’re using the test bed version as their production version. Katie Robbert – 05:19 And so that’s where people are getting stuck because they can’t clearly define why they should be using generative AI. Christopher S. Penn – 05:29 One of the markers of AI maturity is how many—you can call them agents if you want—pieces of software have you created that have AI built into it but don’t require you to be piloting it? So if you were copying and pasting all day, every day, inside and outside of ChatGPT or the tool of your choice, and you’re the copy-paste monkey, you’re basically still stuck in 2023. Yes, your prompts hopefully have gotten better, but you are still doing the manual work as opposed to saying, “I’m going to go check on my marketing strategy and see what’s in my inbox this week from my various AI tool stack.” Christopher S. Penn – 06:13 And it has gone out on its own and downloaded your Google Analytics data, it has produced a report, and it has landed that report in your inbox. So we demoed a few weeks ago on the Trust Insights live stream, which you can catch at Trust Insights YouTube, about taking a sales playbook, taking CRM data, and having it create a next best action report. I don’t copy-paste that. I set, say, “Go,” and the report kind of falls out onto my hard drive like, “Oh, great, now I can share this with the team and they can at least look at it and go, ‘These are the things we need to do.'” But that’s taking AI out of experimental mode, copy-paste, human mode, and moving it into production where the system is what’s working. Christopher S. Penn – 07:03 One of the things we talk about a lot in our workshops and our keynotes is these AI tools are like the engine. You still need the rest of the car. And part of maturity of getting out of the sophomore slump is to stop sitting on the engine all day wondering why you’re not going down the street and say, “Perhaps we should put this in the car.” Katie Robbert – 07:23 Well, and so, you mentioned the AI, how far people are in their AI maturity and what they’ve built. What about people who maybe don’t feel like they have the chops to build something, but they’re using their existing software within their stack that has AI built in? Do you think that falls under the AI maturity? As in, they’re at least using some. Something. Christopher S. Penn – 07:48 They’re at least using something. But—and I’m going to be obnoxious here—you can ask AI to build the software for you. If you are good at requirements gathering, if you are good at planning, if you’re good at asking great questions and you can copy-paste basic development commands, the machines can do all the typing. They can write Python or JavaScript or the language of your choice for whatever works in your company’s tech stack. There is not as much of an excuse anymore for even a non-coder to be creating code. You can commission a deep research report and say, “What are the best practices for writing Python code?” And you could literally, that could be the prompt, and it will spit back, “Here’s the 48-page document.” Christopher S. Penn – 08:34 And you say, “I’ve got a knowledge block now of how to do this.” I put that in a Google document and that can go to my tool and say, “I want to write some Python code like this.” Here’s some best practices. Help me write the requirements—ask me one question at a time until you have enough information for a good requirements document. And it will do that. And you’ll spend 45 minutes talking with it, having a conversation, nothing technical, and you end up with a requirements document. You say, “Can you give me a file-by-file plan of how to make this?” And it will say, “Yes, here’s your plan.” 28 pages later, then you go to a tool like Jules from Google. Say, “Here’s the plan, can you make this?” Christopher S. Penn – 09:13 And it will say, “Sure, I can make this.” And it goes and types, and 45 minutes later it says, “I’ve done your thing.” And that will get you 95% of the way there. So if you want to start getting out of the sophomore slump, start thinking about how can we build the car, how can we start connecting this stuff that we know works because you’ve been doing in ChatGPT for two years now. You’ve been copy-pasting every day, week, month for two years now. It works. I hope it works. But the question that should come to mind is, “How do I build the rest of the car around so I can stop copy-pasting all the time?” Katie Robbert – 09:50 So I’m going to see you’re obnoxious and raise you a condescending and say, “Chris, you skipped over the 5P framework, which is exactly what you should have been using before you even jump into the technology.” So you did what everybody does wrong and you went technology first. And so, you said, “If you’re good at requirements gathering, if you’re good at this, what if you’re not good at those things?” Not everyone is good at clearly articulating what it is they want to do or why they want to do it, or who it’s for. Those are all things that really need to be thought through, which you can do with generative AI before you start building the thing. So you did what every obnoxious software developer does and go straight to, “I’m going to start coding something.” Katie Robbert – 10:40 So I’m going to tell you to slow your roll and go through the 5Ps. And first of all, what is it? What is it you’re trying to do? So use the 5P framework as your high-level requirements gathering to start before you start putting things in, before you start doing the deep research, use the 5Ps and then give that to the deep research tool. Give that to your generative AI tool to build requirements. Give that along with whatever you’ve created to your development tool. So what is it you’re trying to build? Who is it for? How are they going to use it? How are you going to use it? How are you going to maintain it? Because these systems can build code for you, but they’re not going to maintain it unless you have a plan for how it’s going to be maintained. Katie Robbert – 11:30 It’s not going to be, “Guess what, there’s a new version of AI. I’m going to auto-update myself,” unless you build that into part of the process. So you’re obnoxious, I’m condescending. Together we make Trust Insights. Congratulations. Christopher S. Penn – 11:48 But you’re completely correct in that the two halves of these things—doing the 5Ps, then doing your requirements, then thinking through what is it we’re going to do and then implementing it—is how you get out of the sophomore slump. Because the sophomore slump fundamentally is: my second album didn’t go so well. I’ve gotta hit it out of the park again with the third album. I’ve gotta remain relevant so that I’m not, whatever, what was the hit? That’s the only thing that anyone remembers from that band. At least I think. Katie Robbert – 12:22 I’m going to let you keep going with this example. I think it’s entertaining. Christopher S. Penn – 12:27 So your third album has to be, to your point, something that is impactful. It doesn’t necessarily have to be new, but it has to be impactful. You have to be able to demonstrate bigger, better, faster or cheaper. So here’s how we’ve gotten to bigger, better, faster, cheaper, and those two things—the 5Ps and then following the software development life cycle—even if you’re not the one making the software. Because in a lot of ways, it’s no different than outsourcing, which people have been doing for 30 years now for software, to say, “I’m going to outsource this to a developer.” Yeah, instead of the developer being in Bangalore, the developer is now a generative AI tool. You still have to go through those processes. Christopher S. Penn – 13:07 You still have to do the requirements gathering, you still have to know what good QA looks like, but the turnaround cycle is much faster and it’s a heck of a lot cheaper. And so if you want to figure out your next greatest hit, use these processes and then build something. It doesn’t have to be a big thing; build something and start trying out the capabilities of these tools. At a workshop I did a couple weeks ago, we took a podcast that a prospective client was on, and a requirements document, and a deep research document. And I said, “For your pitch to try and win this business, let’s turn it to a video game.” And it was this ridiculous side-scrolling shooter style video game that played right in a browser. Christopher S. Penn – 14:03 But everyone in the room’s, “I didn’t know AI could do that. I didn’t know AI could make me a video game for the pitch.” So you would give this to the stakeholder and the stakeholder would be, “Huh, well that’s kind of cool.” And there was a little button that says, “For the client, boost.” It is a video game bonus boost. That said they were a marketing agency, and so ad marketing, it made the game better. That capability, everyone saw it and went, “I didn’t know we could do that. That is so cool. That is different. That is not the same album as, ‘Oh, here’s yet another blog post client that we’ve made for you.'” Katie Robbert – 14:47 The other thing that needs to be addressed is what have I been doing for the past two years? And so it’s a very human part of the process, but you need to do what’s called in software development, a post-mortem. You need to take a step back and go, “What did we do? What did we accomplish? What do we want to keep? What worked well, what didn’t work?” Because, Chris, you and I are talking about solutions of how do you get to the next best thing. But you also have to acknowledge that for two years you’ve been spending time, resources, dollars, audience, their attention span on these things that you’ve been creating. So that has to be part of how you get out of this slump. Katie Robbert – 15:32 So if you said, “We’ve been able to optimize some stuff,” great, what have you optimized? How is it working? Have you measured how much optimization you’ve gotten and therefore, what do you have left over to then innovate with? How much adoption have you gotten? Are people still resistant because you haven’t communicated that this is a thing that’s going to happen and this is the direction of the company or it’s, “Use it, we don’t really care.” And so that post-mortem has to be part of how you get out of this slump. If you’re, since we’ve been talking about music, if you’re a recording artist and you come out with your second album and it bombs, the record company’s probably going to want to know what happened. Katie Robbert – 16:15 They’re not going to be, “Go ahead and start on the third album. We’re going to give you a few million dollars to go ahead and start recording.” They’re going to want to do a deep-dive analysis of what went wrong because these things cost money. We haven’t talked about the investment. And it’s going to look different for everyone, for every company, and the type of investment is going to be different. But there is an investment, whether it’s physical dollars or resource time or whatever—technical debt, whatever it is—those things have to be acknowledged. And they have to be acknowledged of what you’ve spent the past two years and how you’re going to move forward. Katie Robbert – 16:55 I know the quote is totally incorrect, but it’s the Einstein quote of, “You keep doing the same thing over and it’s the definition of insanity,” which I believe is not actually something he said or what the quote is. But for all intents and purposes, for the purpose of this podcast, that’s what it is. And if you’re not taking a step back to see what you’ve done, then you’re going to move forward, making the same mistakes and doing the same things and sinking the same costs. And you’re not really going to be moving. You’ll feel you’re moving forward, but you’re not really doing that, innovating and optimizing, because you haven’t acknowledged what you did for the past two years. Christopher S. Penn – 17:39 I think that’s a great way of putting it. I think it’s exactly the way to put it. Doing the same thing and expecting a different outcome is the definition of insanity. That’s not entirely true, but it is for this discussion. It is. And part of that, then you have to root-cause analysis. Why are we still doing the same thing? Is it because we don’t have the knowledge? Is it because we don’t have a reason to do it? Is it because we don’t have the right people to do it? Is it because we don’t know how to do it? Do we have the wrong tools? Do we not make any changes because we haven’t been measuring anything? So we don’t know if things are better or not? All five of those questions are literally the 5Ps brought to life. Christopher S. Penn – 18:18 And so if you want to get out of the sophomore slump, ask each of those questions: what is the blocking obstacle to that? For example, one of the things that has been on my list to do forever is write a generative AI integration to check my email for me and start responding to emails automatically. Katie Robbert – 18:40 Yikes. Christopher S. Penn – 18:43 But that example—the purpose of the performance—is very clear. I want to save time and I want to be more responsive in my emails or more obnoxious. One of the two, I want to write a version for text messages that automatically put someone into text messaging limbo as they’re talking to my AI assistant that is completely unhelpful so that they stop. So people who I don’t want texts from just give up after a while and go, “Please never text this person again.” Clear purpose. Katie Robbert – 19:16 Block that person. Christopher S. Penn – 19:18 Well, it’s for all the spammy text messages that I get, I want a machine to waste their time on purpose. But there’s a clear purpose and clear performance. And so all this to say for getting out of the sophomore slump, you’ve got to have this stuff written out and written down and do the post-mortem, or even better, do a pre-mortem. Have generative AI say, “Here’s what we’re going to do.” And generative AI, “Tell me what could go wrong,” and do a pre-mortem before you, “It seems following the 5P framework, you haven’t really thought through what your purpose is.” Or following the 5P framework, you clearly don’t have the skills. Christopher S. Penn – 20:03 One of the things that you can and should do is grab the Trust Insights AI Ready Marketing Strategy kit, which by the way, is useful for more than marketing and take the PDF download from that, put it into your generative AI chat, and say, “I want to come up with this plan, run through the TRIPS framework or the 5Ps—whatever from this kit—and say, ‘Help me do a pre-mortem so that I can figure out what’s going to go wrong in advance.'” Katie Robbert – 20:30 I wholeheartedly agree with that. But also, don’t skip the post-mortem because people want to know what have we been spinning our wheels on for two years? Because there may be some good in there that you didn’t measure correctly the first time or you didn’t think through to say, “We have been creating a lot of extra blog posts. Let’s see if that’s boosted the traffic to our website,” or, “We have been able to serve more clients. Let’s look at what that is in revenue dollars.” Katie Robbert – 21:01 There is some good that people have been doing, but I think because of misaligned expectations and assumptions of what generative AI could and should do. But also then coupled with the lack of understanding of where generative AI is today, we’re all sitting here going, “Am I any better off?” I don’t know. I mean, I have a Katie AI version of me. But so what? So I need to dig deeper and say, “What have I done with it? What have I been able to accomplish with it?” And if the answer is nothing great, then that’s a data point that you can work from versus if the answer is, “I’ve been able to come up with a whole AI toolkit and I’ve been able to expedite writing the newsletter and I’ve been able to do XYZ.” Okay, great, then that’s a benefit and I’m maybe not as far behind as I thought I was. Christopher S. Penn – 21:53 Yep. And the last thing I would say for getting out of the sophomore slump is to have some way of keeping up with what is happening in AI. Join the Analytics for Marketers Slack Group. Subscribe to the Trust Insights newsletter. Hang out with us on our live streams. Join other Slack communities and other Discord communities. Read the big tech blogs from the big tech companies, particularly the research blogs, because that’s where the most cutting-edge stuff is going to happen that will help explain things. For example, there’s a paper recently that talked about how humans perceive language versus how language models perceive it. And the big takeaway there was that language models do a lot of compression. They’re compression engines. Christopher S. Penn – 22:38 So they will take the words auto and automobile and car and conveyance and compress it all down to the word car. And when it spits out results, it will use the word car because it’s the most logical, highest probability term to use. But if you are saying as part of your style, “the doctor’s conveyance,” and the model compresses down to “the doctor’s car,” that takes away your writing style. So this paper tells us, “I need to be very specific in my writing style instructions if I want to capture any.” Because the tool itself is going to capture performance compression on it. So knowing how these technologies work, not everyone on your team has to do that. Christopher S. Penn – 23:17 But one person on your team probably should have more curiosity and have time allocated to at least understanding what’s possible today and where things are going so that you don’t stay stuck in 2023. Katie Robbert – 23:35 There also needs to be a communication plan, and perhaps the person who has the time to be curious isn’t necessarily the best communicator or educator. That’s fine. You need to be aware of that. You need to acknowledge it and figure out what does that look like then if this person is spending their time learning these tools? How do we then transfer that knowledge to everybody else? That needs to be part of the high-level, “Why are we doing this in the first place? Who needs to be involved? How are we going to do this? What tools?” It’s almost I’m repeating the 5Ps again. Because I am. Katie Robbert – 24:13 And you really need to think through, if Chris on my team is the one who’s going to really understand where we’re going with AI, how do we then get that information from Chris back to the rest of the team in a way that they can take action on it? That needs to be part of this overall. Now we’re getting out of the slump, we’re going to move forward. It’s not enough for someone to say, “I’m going to take the lead.” They need to take the lead and also be able to educate. And sometimes that’s going to take more than that one person. Christopher S. Penn – 24:43 It will take more than that one person. Because I can tell you for sure, even for ourselves, we struggle with that sometimes because I will have something, “Katie, did you see this whole new paper on infinite-retry and an infinite context window?” And you’re, “No, sure did not.” But being able to communicate, as you say, “tell me when I should care,” is a really important thing that needs to be built into your process. Katie Robbert – 25:14 Yep. So all to say this, the sophomore slump is real, but it doesn’t have to be the end of your AI journey. Christopher S. Penn – 25:25 Exactly.

In this episode we dive deep into the power of subconscious beliefs, parts integration (a tool from NLP), and the ongoing work of aligning business, family, and personal identity. We explore how competing beliefs (like hustle vs. harmony) can be integrated to create internal peace and clarity. Kim shares a powerful exercise where she names her two conflicting parts: Carol (light, joy) and Ursula (sacrifice, hustle), and learns to blend them, not fight them.The conversation then shifts into legacy, asking: What does it mean to live in alignment in your business, body, and relationships?  We both reflect on personal growth, parenting, over-scheduling, and creating space for what matters. We emphasize that hustle isn't bad when it's intentional and joyful, but that saying yes to everything often stems from past trauma or identity patterns.I also share an interesting analogy I hear about a tugboat vs. a lighthouse, as they are each there to help boats, but both do it in very different ways.  We discuss two styles of leadership and support, hands-on vs. steady presence, and how knowing when to be each is key to sustainable living. The takeaway: there's no right or wrong way to lead or grow, but self-awareness is crucial.We close this episode by encouraging all of you to evaluate your own lives with reflection questions:Are you in alignment with who you're becoming?Are your choices supporting your legacy?Where are you out of sync, and how can you come back home?We loved filming this episode and I believe the  tone is honest, vulnerable, and full of real-life tension between ambition and presence, and is especially relevant for entrepreneurs balancing family, purpose, and success.As always, thanks for listening!K&JYou can watch the full video version here: https://youtu.be/6yYKML6Oshc---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Website: www.fitzlife.caSIGN UP FOR WORKSHOPS, RETREATS, AND APPLY TO WORK WITH KIM & JAMIE: bit.ly/WorkWithKimFitzpatrickSHOP OUR CLEAN AND NON-TOXIC WELLNESS SITE:

What if certain essential aspects of your life – such as your talents and what truly motivates you – were determined before you were even conceived? While the idea may seem far-fetched, a practice called numerology posits that some numbers, including those linked to your name and date of birth, carry vibrations and meanings that can reveal illuminating truths about your life's path and purpose.  David Shephard – who previously appeared in Episode 58 of The Mindset Game® podcast – is a globally recognized expert in neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), as well as Time Line Therapy, hypnosis, Hawaiian Huna, and numerology.

The transcript may contain errors and is not a substitute for listening to the episode. Christopher S. Penn – 00:00 In this week’s In-Ear Insights, let’s talk about the sophomore slump. Katie, you were talking about the sophomore slump in regards to generative AI. I figured we could make this into a two-part series. So first, what is the sophomore slump? Katie Robbert – 00:15 So I’m calling it the sophomore slump. Basically, what I’m seeing is a trend of a lot of companies talking about, “We tried. We started implementing AI two years ago—generative AI to be specific—and we’re stalled out.” We are at the same place we were two years ago. We’ve optimized some things. We’re using it to create content, maybe create some images, and that’s about it. Everyone fired everyone. There’s no one here. It’s like a ghost town. The machines are just whirring away in the background. And I’m calling it the sophomore slump because I’m seeing this pattern of companies, and it all seems to be—they’re all saying the same—two years ago. Katie Robbert – 01:03 And two years ago is when generative AI really hit the mainstream market in terms of its availability to the masses, to all of us, versus someone, Chris, like you, who had been using it through IBM and other machine learning systems and homegrown systems. So I bring it up because it’s interesting, because I guess there’s a lot to unpack here. AI is this magic tool that’s gonna solve your problems and do all the things and make you dinner and clean your room. I feel like there’s a lot of things wrong or a lot of things that are just not going right. A lot of companies are hitting this two-year mark, and they’re like, “What now? What happened? Am I better off? Not really.” Katie Robbert – 02:00 I’m just paying for more stuff. So Chris, are you seeing this as well? Is this your take? Christopher S. Penn – 02:07 It is. And a lot of it has to do with what psychology calls anchoring, where your understanding something is anchored to your first perceptions of it. So when ChatGPT first came out in November 2022 and became popular in January 2023, what were people using it for? “Let’s write some blog posts.” And two years later, where are we? “Let’s write some blog posts.” And the capabilities have advanced exponentially since then. One of the big things that we’ve heard from clients and I’ve seen and heard at trade shows and conferences and all this stuff: people don’t understand even what’s possible with the tools, what you can do with them. Christopher S. Penn – 02:56 And as a result, they’re still stuck in 2023 of “let’s write some blog posts.” Instead, “Hey, today, use this tool to build software. Use this tool to create video. Use this tool to make fully synthetic podcasts.” So as much as it makes me cringe, there’s this term from consulting called “the art of the possible.” And that really is still one of the major issues for people to open their minds and go, “Oh, I can do this!” This morning on LinkedIn, I was sharing from our livestream a couple weeks ago: “Hey, you can use NotebookLM to make segments of your sales playbook as training audio, as a training podcast internally so that you could help new hires onboard quickly by having a series of podcasts made from your own company’s materials.” Katie Robbert – 03:49 Do you think that when Generative AI hit the market, people jumped on it too quickly? Is that the problem? Or is it evolving so fast? Or what do you think happened that two years later, despite all the advances, companies are stalled out in what we’re calling the sophomore slump? Christopher S. Penn – 04:13 I don’t think they jumped on it too quickly. I don’t think they kept up with the changes. Again, it’s anchoring. One of the very interesting things that I’ve seen at workshops: for example, we’ve been working with SMPS—the Society for Marketing Professional Services—and they’re one of our favorite clients because we get a chance to hang out with them twice a year, every year, for two-day workshops. And I noted at the most recent one, the demographic of the audience changed radically. In the first workshop back in late 2023, it was 60-40 women to men, as mid- to senior-level folks. In this most recent was 95-5 women and much more junior-level folks. And I remember commenting to the organizers, I said, “What’s going on here?” Christopher S. Penn – 05:02 And they said what they’ve heard is that all senior-level folks are like, “Oh yeah, I know AI. We’re just going to send our junior people.” I’m like, “But what I’m presenting today in 2025 is so far different from what you learned in late 2023.” You should be here as a senior leader to see what’s possible today. Katie Robbert – 05:26 I have so many questions about that kind of mentality. “I know everything I need to know, therefore it doesn’t apply to me.” Think about non-AI-based technology, think about the rest of your tech stack: servers, cloud storage, databases. Those things aren’t static. They change and evolve. Maybe not at the pace that generative AI has been evolving, but they still change, and there’s still things to know and learn. Unless you are the person developing the software, you likely don’t know everything about it. And so I’ve always been really suspicious of people who have that “I know everything I need to know, I can’t learn any more about this, it’s just not relevant” sort of mentality. That to me is hugely concerning. Katie Robbert – 06:22 And so it sounds like what you are seeing as a pattern in addition to this sophomore slump is people saying, “I know enough. I don’t need to keep up with it. I’m good.” Christopher S. Penn – 06:34 Exactly. So their perception of generative AI and its capabilities, and therefore knowing what to ask for as leaders, is frozen in late 2023. Their understanding has not evolved. And while the technology has evolved, as a point of comparison, generative AI’s capabilities in terms of what the tools can double every six months. So a task that took an hour for AI to do six months ago now takes 30 minutes. A task that they couldn’t do six months ago, they can do now. And so since 2023, we’ve essentially had what—five doublings. That’s two to the fifth power: five doublings of its capabilities. Christopher S. Penn – 07:19 And so if you’re stuck in late 2023, of course you’re having a sophomore slump because it’s like you learned to ride a bicycle, and today there is a Bugatti Chiron in your driveway, and you’re like, “I’m going to bicycle to the store.” Well, you can do a bit more than that now. You can go a little bit faster. You can go places you couldn’t go previously. And I don’t know how to fix that. I don’t know how to get the messaging out to those senior leaders to say what you think about AI is not where the technology is today. Which means that if you care about things like ROI—what is the ROI of AI?—you are not unlocking value because you don’t even know what it can do. Katie Robbert – 08:09 Well, see, and now you’re hitting on because you just said, “I don’t know how to reach these leaders.” But yet in the same sentence, you said, “But here are the things they care about.” Those are the terms that need to be put in for people to pay attention. And I’ll give us a knock on this too. We’re not putting it in those terms. We’re not saying, “Here’s the value of the latest and greatest version of AI models,” or, “Here’s how you can save money.” We’re talking about it in terms of what the technology can do, not what it can do for you and why you should care. I was having this conversation with one of our clients this morning as they’re trying to understand what GPTs, what models their team members are using. Katie Robbert – 09:03 But they weren’t telling the team members why. They were asking why it mattered if they knew what they were using or not. And it’s the oldest thing of humankind: “Just tell me what’s in it for me? How does this make it about me? I want to see myself in this.” And that’s one of the reasons why the 5Ps is so useful. So this isn’t necessarily “use the 5Ps,” but it could be. So the 5Ps are Purpose, People, Process, Platform, Performance, when we’re the ones at the cutting edge. And we’re saying, “We know that AI can do all of these really cool things.” It’s our responsibility to help those who need the education see themselves in it. Katie Robbert – 09:52 So, Chris, one of the things that we do is, on Mondays we send out a roundup of everything that’s happened with AI. And you can get that. That’s our Substack newsletter. But what we’re not doing in that newsletter is saying, “This is why you should pay attention.” But not “here’s the value.” “If you implement this particular thing, it could save you money.” This particular thing could increase your productivity. And that’s going to be different for every client. I feel like I’m rambling and I’m struggling through my thought process here. Katie Robbert – 10:29 But really what it boils down to, AI is changing so fast that those of us on the front lines need to do a better job of explaining not just why you should care, but what the benefit is going to be, but in the terms that those individuals care about. And that’s going to look different for everyone. And I don’t know if that’s scalable. Christopher S. Penn – 10:50 I don’t think it is scalable. And I think the other issue is that so many people are locked into the past that it’s difficult to even make headway into explaining how this thing will benefit you. So to your point, part of our responsibility is to demonstrate use cases, even simple ones, to say: “Here, with today’s modern tooling, here’s a use case that you can use generative AI for.” So at the workshop yesterday that we have this PDF-rich, full of research. It’s a lot. There’s 50-some-odd pages, high-quality data. Christopher S. Penn – 11:31 But we said, “What would it look like if you put this into Google Gemini and turn it into a one-page infographic of just the things that the ideal customer profile cares about?” And suddenly the models can take that, distill it down, identify from the ideal customer profile the five things they really care about, and make a one-page infographic. And now you’ve used the tools to not just process words but make an output. And they can say, “Oh, I understand! The value of this output is: ‘I don’t have to wait three weeks for Creative to do exactly the same thing.'” We can give the first draft to Creative and get it turned around in 24 hours because they could add a little polish and fix the screw-ups of the AI. Christopher S. Penn – 12:09 But speed. The key output there is speed: high quality. But Creative is already creating high-quality. But speed was the key output there. In another example, everybody their cousin is suddenly, it’s funny, I see this on LinkedIn, “Oh, you should be using GPTs!” I’m like, “You should have been using GPTs for over a year and a half now!” What you should be doing now is looking at how to build MCPs that can go cross-platform. So it’s like a GPT, but it goes anywhere you go. So if your company uses Copilot, you will be able to use an MCP. If your company uses Gemini, you’ll be able to use this. Christopher S. Penn – 12:48 So what does it look like for your company if you’ve got a great idea to turn it into an MCP and maybe put it up for sale? Like, “Hey, more revenue!” The benefit to you is more revenue. You can take your data and your secret sauce, put it into this thing—it’s essentially an app—and sell it. More revenue. So it’s our responsibility to create these use cases and, to your point, clearly state: “Here’s the Purpose, and here’s the outcome.” Money or time or something. You could go, “Oh, I would like that!” Katie Robbert – 13:21 It occurs to me—and I feel silly that this only just occurred to me. So when we’re doing our roundup of “here’s what changed with AI week over week” to pull the data for that newsletter, we’re using our ideal customer profile. But we’re not using our ideal customer profile as deeply as we could be. So if those listening aren’t familiar, one of the things that we’ve been doing at Trust Insights is taking publicly available data, plus our own data sets—our CRM data, our Google Analytics data—and building what we’re calling these ideal customer profiles. So, a synthetic stand-in for who should be a Trust Insights customer. And it goes pretty deep. It goes into buying motivations, pain points, things that the ideal customer would care about. Katie Robbert – 14:22 And as we’re talking, it occurs to me, Chris, we’re saying, “Well, it’s not scalable to customize the news for all of these different people, but using generative AI, it might be.” It could be. So I’m not saying we have to segment off our newsletter into eight different versions depending on the audience, but perhaps there’s an opportunity to include a little bit more detail around how a specific advancement in generative AI addresses a specific pain point from our ideal customer profile. Because theoretically, it’s our ideal customers who are subscribing to our content. It’s all very—I would need to outline it in how all these things connect. Katie Robbert – 15:11 But in my brain, I can see how, again, that advanced use case of generative AI actually brings you back to the basics of “How are you solving my problem?” Christopher S. Penn – 15:22 So in an example from that, you would say, “Okay, which of the four dimensions—it could be more—but which of the four dimensions does this news impact?” Bigger, better, faster, cheaper. So which one of these does this help? And if it doesn’t align to any of those four, then maybe it’s not of use to the ICP because they can go, “Well, this doesn’t make me do things better or faster or save me money or save me time.” So maybe it’s not that relevant. And the key thing here, which a lot of folks don’t have in their current capabilities, is that scale. Christopher S. Penn – 15:56 So when we make that change to the prompt that is embedded inside this AI agent, the agent will then go and apply it to a thousand different articles at a scale that you would be copying and pasting into ChatGPT for three days to do the exact same thing. Katie Robbert – 16:12 Sounds awful. Christopher S. Penn – 16:13 And that’s where we come back to where we started with this about the sophomore slump is to say, if the people are not building processes and systems that allow the use of AI to scale, everyone is still in the web interface. “Oh, open up ChatGPT and do this thing.” That’s great. But at this point in someone’s AI evolution, ChatGPT or Gemini or Claude or whatever could be your R&D. That’s where you do your R&D to prove that your prompt will even work. But once you’ve done R&D, you can’t live in R&D. You have to take it to development, staging, and eventually production. Taking it on the line so that you have an AI newsletter. Christopher S. Penn – 16:54 The machine spits out. You’ve proven that it works through the web interface. You’ve proven it works by testing it. And now it’s, “Okay, how do we scale this in production?” And I feel like because so many people are using generative AI as language tools rather than seeing them as what they are—which is thinly disguised programming tools—they don’t think about the rest of the SDLC and say, “How do we take this and put it in production?” You’re constantly in debug mode, and you never leave it. Katie Robbert – 17:28 Let’s go back to the audience because one of the things that you mentioned is that you’ve seen a shift in the demographic to who you’ve been speaking to. So it was upper-level management executives, and now those folks feel like they know enough. Do you think part of the challenge with this sophomore slump that we’re seeing is what the executives and the upper-level management think they learned? Is it not also then getting distilled down into those junior staff members? So it’s also a communication issue, a delegation issue of: “I learned how to build a custom GPT to write blogs for me in my voice.” “So you go ahead and do the same thing,” but that’s where the conversation ends. Or, “Here’s my custom GPT. You can use my voice when I’m not around.” Katie Robbert – 18:24 But then the marketing ants are like, “Okay, but what about everything else that’s on my plate?” Do you feel like that education and knowledge transfer is part of why we’re seeing this slump? Christopher S. Penn – 18:36 Absolutely, I think that’s part of it. And again, those leaders not knowing what’s happening on the front lines of the technology itself means they don’t know what to ask for. They remember that snapshot of AI that they had in October 2023, and they go, “Oh yeah, we can use this to make more blog posts.” If you don’t know what’s on the menu, then you’re going to keep ordering the same thing, even if the menu’s changed. Back in 2023, the menu is this big. It’s “blog posts.” “Okay, I like more blog posts now.” The menu is this big. And saying: you can do your corporate strategy. You can audit financial documents. You can use Google Colab to do advanced data analysis. You can make videos and audio and all this stuff. Christopher S. Penn – 19:19 And so the menu that looks like the Cheesecake Factory. But the executive still has the mental snapshot of an index card version of the menu. And then the junior person goes to a workshop and says, “Wow! The menu looks like a Cheesecake Factory menu now!” Then they come back to the office, and they say, “Oh, I’ve got all these ideas that we can implement!” The executives are like, “No, just make more blog posts.” “That’s what’s on the menu!” So it is a communication issue. It’s a communication issue. It is a people issue. Christopher S. Penn – 19:51 Which is the problem. Katie Robbert – 19:53 Yeah. Do you think? So the other trend that I’m seeing—I’m trying to connect all these things because I’m really just trying to wrap my head around what’s happening, but also how we can be helpful—is this: I’m seeing a lot of this anti-AI. A lot of that chatter where, “Humans first.” “Humans still have to do this.” And AI is not going to replace us because obviously the conversation for a while is, “Will this technology take my job?” And for some companies like Duolingo, they made that a reality, and now it’s backfiring on them. But for other people, they’re like, “I will never use AI.” They’re taking that hard stance to say, “This is just not what I’m going to do.” Christopher S. Penn – 20:53 It is very black and white. And here’s the danger of that from a strategy perspective. People have expectations based on the standard. So in 1998, people like, “Oh, this Internet thing’s a fad!” But the customer expectations started to change. “Oh, I can order any book I want online!” I don’t have to try to get it out of the borders of Barnes and Noble. I can just go to this place called Amazon. Christopher S. Penn – 21:24 In 2007, we got these things, and suddenly it’s, “Oh, I can have the internet wherever I go.” By the so-called mobile commerce revolution—which did happen—you got to swipe right and get food and a coffee, or have a car show up at your house, or have a date show up at your house, or whatever. And the expectation is this thing is the remote control for my life. And so every brand that did not have an app on this device got left behind because people are like, “Well, why would I use you when I have this thing? I can get whatever I want.” Now AI is another twist on this to say: we are setting an expectation. Christopher S. Penn – 22:04 The expectation is you can get a blog post written in 15 minutes by ChatGPT. That’s the expectation that has been set by the technology, whether it’s any good or not. We’ll put that aside because people will always choose convenience over quality. Which means if you are that person who’s like, “I am anti-AI. Human first. Human always. These machines are terrible,” great, you still have to produce a blog post in 15 minutes because that is the expectation set by the market. And you’re like, “No, quality takes time!” Quality is secondary to speed and convenience in what the marketplace will choose. So you can be human first, but you better be as good as a machine and as a very difficult standard to meet. Christopher S. Penn – 22:42 And so to your point about the sophomore slump, those companies that are not seeing those benefits—because they have people who are taking a point of view that they are absolutely entitled to—are not recognizing that their competitors using AI are setting a standard that they may not be able to meet anymore. Katie Robbert – 23:03 And I feel like that’s also contributing to that. The sophomore slump is in some ways—maybe it’s not something that’s present in the conscious mind—but maybe subconsciously people are feeling defeated, and they’re like, “Well, I can’t compete with my competitors, so I’m not even going to bother.” So let me twist it so that it sounds like it’s my idea to not be using AI, and I’m going to set myself apart by saying, “Well, we’re not going to use it.” We’re going to do it the old-fashioned way. Which, I remember a few years ago, Chris, we were talking about how there’s room at the table both for the Amazons and the Etsy crowds. Katie Robbert – 23:47 And so there’s the Amazon—the fast delivery, expedited, lower cost—whereas Etsy is the handmade, artisanal, bespoke, all of those things. And it might cost a little bit more, but it’s unique and crafted. And so do you think that analogy still holds true? Is there still room at the table for the “it’s going to take longer, but it’s my original thinking” blog post that might take a few days versus the “I can spin up thousands of blog posts in the few days that it’s going to take you to build the one”? Christopher S. Penn – 24:27 It depends on performance. The fifth P. If your company measures performance by things like profit margins and speed to market, there isn’t room at the table for the Etsy style. If your company measures other objectives—like maybe customer satisfaction, and values-based selling is part of how you make your money—companies say, “I choose you because I know you are sustainable. I choose you because I know you’re ethical.” Then yes, there is room at the table for that. So it comes down to basic marketing strategy, business strategy of what is it that the value that we’re selling is—is the audience willing to provide it? Which I think is a great segue into next week’s episode, which is how do you get out of the sophomore slump? So we’re going to tackle that next week’s episode. Christopher S.

What if the most dangerous predators aren't lurking in dark alleys, but hiding in plain sight, charming their way into your life?Dr. David Snyder's webinar exposes the psychological tactics of manipulators who:Exploit emotional vulnerabilitiesCreate false connectionsPrey on your deepest insecuritiesLearn how social predators:Use the "Halo Effect" to appear trustworthyIdentify and target emotional weak pointsManipulate through validation and charmThe critical question: Are you truly safe from those who want to use you?Quotes:"People like people who are like themselves. We instinctively, inherently like people who make us feel good about ourselves." - Dr. David Snyder"The more attractive somebody is, physically or emotionally, the more we want to believe they're everything good." - Dr. David Snyder"Lack of action comes down to two basic things: either you don't know what to do, which is a skill set issue, or you're not willing to do it, which is a mindset issue." - Dr. David SnyderActionable Takeaways:Conduct a "Social Circle Audit": Critically examine your relationships and look for red flags. Ask yourself: Does anyone consistently make you feel emotionally drained, manipulated, or consistently shifts blame onto others?Develop a Personal Verification Protocol: Before deeply investing in a new relationship (personal or professional), create a systematic approach to verify someone's background. This includes checking social media, asking mutual connections, and looking for inconsistencies in their stories.Practice the "Emotional Detachment Technique": When meeting someone new, train yourself to step back emotionally and objectively assess their behavior, motivations, and consistency. Don't let initial charm or attractiveness cloud your judgment.Create Personal Boundary Statements: Develop clear, concise statements that define your personal boundaries. Practice communicating these boundaries directly and without apology, which helps repel potential manipulators.Monthly "Relationship Health Check": Schedule a quarterly self-reflection where you honestly evaluate your relationships. Ask: Who adds value to my life? Who drains my energy? Who consistently demonstrates trustworthiness and genuine care?Episode Timeline:0:00-5:00: Introduction and Overview of Machiavellian and Dark Triad TraitsDefining psychopathic and manipulative behaviorsDiscussion of books like "48 Laws of Power"Characteristics of social predators5:00-10:00: The Halo Effect and Psychological ManipulationHow attractiveness influences perceptionMechanisms of creating false positive impressionsTruth bias and emotional vulnerability10:00-15:00: Identifying Vulnerability MarkersPsychological traits that make people susceptible to manipulationRecent life challenges that create emotional openingsPredator targeting strategies15:00-20:00: Predator Identification TechniquesProactive methods of social predatorsHow manipulators create instant connectionsIdentification principle and emotional appeal20:00-25:00: Defensive StrategiesDeveloping personal boundariesRecognizing manipulation tacticsImportance of emotional detachment25:00-35:00: Q&A and Practical ApplicationsAudience questions about dealing with manipulatorsPersonal stories and insightsStrategies for protecting oneself35:00-40:00: Closing and Special OfferRecap of key lessonsPromotion of additional training resourcesMotivational conclusion about personal empowermentTo learn more about Dr. David Snyder and everything about NLP, visit:Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nlppower.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@DavidSnyderNLP⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram:⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/davidsnydernlp

Mark Ericksen, creator of the Elixir LangChain framework, joins the Elixir Wizards to talk about LLM integration in Elixir apps. He explains how LangChain abstracts away the quirks of different AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic's Claude, Google's Gemini) so you can work with any LLM in one more consistent API. We dig into core features like conversation chaining, tool execution, automatic retries, and production-grade fallback strategies. Mark shares his experiences maintaining LangChain in a fast-moving AI world: how it shields developers from API drift, manages token budgets, and handles rate limits and outages. He also reveals testing tactics for non-deterministic AI outputs, configuration tips for custom authentication, and the highlights of the new v0.4 release, including “content parts” support for thinking-style models. Key topics discussed in this episode: • Abstracting LLM APIs behind a unified Elixir interface • Building and managing conversation chains across multiple models • Exposing application functionality to LLMs through tool integrations • Automatic retries and fallback chains for production resilience • Supporting a variety of LLM providers • Tracking and optimizing token usage for cost control • Configuring API keys, authentication, and provider-specific settings • Handling rate limits and service outages with degradation • Processing multimodal inputs (text, images) in Langchain workflows • Extracting structured data from unstructured LLM responses • Leveraging “content parts” in v0.4 for advanced thinking-model support • Debugging LLM interactions using verbose logging and telemetry • Kickstarting experiments in LiveBook notebooks and demos • Comparing Elixir LangChain to the original Python implementation • Crafting human-in-the-loop workflows for interactive AI features • Integrating Langchain with the Ash framework for chat-driven interfaces • Contributing to open-source LLM adapters and staying ahead of API changes • Building fallback chains (e.g., OpenAI → Azure) for seamless continuity • Embedding business logic decisions directly into AI-powered tools • Summarization techniques for token efficiency in ongoing conversations • Batch processing tactics to leverage lower-cost API rate tiers • Real-world lessons on maintaining uptime amid LLM service disruptions Links mentioned: https://rubyonrails.org/ https://fly.io/ https://zionnationalpark.com/ https://podcast.thinkingelixir.com/ https://github.com/brainlid/langchain https://openai.com/ https://claude.ai/ https://gemini.google.com/ https://www.anthropic.com/ Vertex AI Studio https://cloud.google.com/generative-ai-studio https://www.perplexity.ai/ https://azure.microsoft.com/ https://hexdocs.pm/ecto/Ecto.html https://oban.pro/ Chris McCord's ElixirConf EU 2025 Talk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojL_VHc4gLk Getting started: https://hexdocs.pm/langchain/gettingstarted.html https://ash-hq.org/ https://hex.pm/packages/langchain https://hexdocs.pm/igniter/readme.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WM9iQlQSFg @brainlid on Twitter and BlueSky Special Guest: Mark Ericksen.

The high-tech world of biohacking often focuses on physical factors for longevity, like supplements and cold plunges. However, author and biohacker Tony Wrighton suggests that mindset plays a more significant role. Drawing from his experience in behavior change and neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), Tony reveals that our beliefs about aging may impact lifespan more than diet or exercise. A Yale University study supports this idea, showing that individuals with a negative mindset towards aging live 7.5 years shorter than those with a positive outlook. This effect is more detrimental than smoking, obesity, or high cholesterol.  Many in the wellness world meticulously track physical metrics but neglect the emotional and psychological aspects critical for a “longevity mindset.” Questions about resilience, purpose, and emotional stress should be addressed. Studies suggest that purpose, like having children, contributes to longevity. Human connection and physical touch also play vital roles in health, evidenced by improvements in heart rate variability (HRV) during physical interaction. Impact of Overstimulation Tony identifies overstimulation from screens as a major health crisis contributor. Deliberate screen breaks are crucial for health. The constant "on" state leads to health anxiety, sleep disruption, and hinders the body's natural healing process. Tony emphasizes that life's best experiences, like food and love, do not require screens. Tools for Inner Change Tony advocates for various tools to support mindset work. Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) helps reframe beliefs. Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) aids in managing emotional distress. Habit Stacking involves layering positive routines to make them automatic. Tony's most effective biohack is spending time outdoors in the morning. Longevity, for Tony, is a lifestyle built on daily rituals and belief rewiring. Key practices include daily screen-free time, 20 minutes of inner reflection, human connection, purpose, and consistent routines. The Power of Beliefs Tony stresses that in a world obsessed with optimization, we often ignore the invisible drivers of well-being. How we think and feel may be the most powerful biohacks. Before investing in expensive gadgets, we should examine our beliefs about aging and purpose. These beliefs can determine if we merely live or truly thrive. In this podcast you'll learn... How mindset can impact longevity more than physical health factors. A Yale University study reveals the impact of a negative aging mindset. The importance of purpose and human connection for well-being. Tools like NLP, EFT, and Habit Stacking for inner change. The necessity of screen breaks in the modern world.   EPISODE RESOURCES: Use Zestology10 code on bioptimizers.co.uk and bioptimizers.eu

Wellness + Wisdom | Episode 748 Are your unresolved childhood wounds hijacking your relationships and keeping you stuck in depression or anxiety? Neuro-Rewiring Expert Mike Zeller joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 748, to share how healing your protector parts can transform conflict into deeper connection and trust, why psychedelics can reopen critical social learning periods and give you access to the hidden programming of your mind, and how to move from fear-driven protector parts into authentic flow state. "Our core longing as human beings is connection and love. We think that the wounded, victim, angry self is who we are because that part is in the driver's seat, and we're identified with that feeling. When we do the neuro-rewiring work, we separate that enmeshment. And because of that separation, we can now recognize the patterns and awareness instead of being in it so much that we can't see." - Mike Zeller

In this heart-centered interview, I have the honor of talking with Melissa Deally, an integrative mind-body health practitioner, international speaker, and the founder of Girls Matter, a nonprofit supporting girls' education in Kenya and Uganda. Melissa shares her thoughtful approach to health, emphasizing that true healing goes beyond just the physical body. She introduces listeners to the idea that we have not only a physical body but also emotional, mental, and spiritual bodies, and that addressing all four is key to overall well-being. Melissa explains how deeply rooted childhood programming can affect our ability to follow through on healthy choices, highlighting the importance of working with the unconscious mind to shift these patterns and create lasting change.Their conversation sheds light on tools such as timeline therapy and NLP, which can help individuals release stored emotions and reframe old stories, offering hope for those who feel stuck or overwhelmed, especially during difficult transitions like divorce. Melissa also discusses the power of teaching these techniques to children, envisioning a future where young people are better equipped to manage their emotions and mental health.The episode closes with a look at Melissa's philanthropic passion: keeping girls in school through Girls Matter and why this mission is so vital for breaking cycles of poverty. Together, we explore practical ways to grow, heal, and contribute, reminding listeners that whether in personal health or supporting others, we all have resources within us and the ability to make a meaningful difference.About the Guest:Melissa Deally is an Integrative Mind-Body Health Practitioner, Trainer of NLP, Time Line Therapy®, Hypnotherapy and Magnified Healing®, dedicated to helping clients detox and heal their physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual bodies.

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum address the most important topic to us here at NLP: you. We called for you to imagine a new system and we have watched and read your responses. There are words of encouragement there–and words of rebuke. We want all the smoke, and the love, let’s get into it! From non-voters to Karens, the conversation (spurred by you) comes back to this: even when they try to support us, white people are constantly centering themselves. Their values and their comfort are always at the forefront for THEM, and we see that reflected in government, in school, on TV, in PODCASTS; the list goes on. That’s great for Karen and the rest–but how do we advocate for the Black community without falling into the trap of centering them ourselves?? There’s news out of Tulsa this week on reparations for the descendents of the victims of the Tulsa Race Massacre. We welcome Attorney Demario Soloman-Simmons to break the exciting news to all of you! Mr. Solomon-Simmons is founder and executive director of the Justice for Greenwood initiative, find out more at https://www.justiceforgreenwood.org/ Find out more about the State of the People Tour and attend our show in LA this Friday for FREE at https://stateoftheppl.com/ If you’d like to submit a question, check out our tutorial video: http://www.instagram.com/reel/C5j_oBXLIg0/ and send to @nativelandpod.
