Sport has always been central to Nike's identity, not just as a business, but as a force for human potential. This commitment extends to the social issues at the heart of youth athletics today, particularly surrounding keeping youth in sports and connected to physical activity and elevating the role of caring, well-equipped coaches. With young people today navigating unprecedented levels of stress and lack of physical activity, coaches play an invaluable role in providing community, restorative power, and safe spaces. Nike has been at the center of this work for decades, stemming from its belief that if you have a body, you're an athlete—and that every athlete deserves access and the opportunity to thrive.We invited Vanessa Garcia-Brito, Vice President and Chief Impact Officer at Nike, to share how Nike is reimagining the landscape of youth athletics and building purpose-driven programs. Vanessa unpacked the insights behind Nike's “Coach the Dream” initiative, the importance of caring and culturally aware coaches, and why investing in girls' coaching is non-negotiable for long-term impact. She also emphasized the role of partnerships, with organizations like Dove and Spotify, and in meeting girls where they are to dismantle barriers to participation. This episode offers a powerful blueprint for how a long-established, trusted brand has integrated purpose, community relevance, and business value to drive meaningful change.Listen for insights on:Building impact programs around what your company uniquely does bestDesigning scalable tools for global activationEstablishing clear long-term goals with flexibility for real-time adaptationAdvice for young professionals looking to work in social impact Resources + Links:Vanessa Garcia-Brito's LinkedInCoach the DreamIf You Let Me Play (00:00) - Welcome to Purpose 360 (00:13) - Vanessa Garcia-Brito, Nike (02:54) - About Vanessa (03:58) - Early Influences (06:09) - Chief Impact Officer (06:59) - Superpower (08:17) - Nike's Purpose (10:09) - Key Campaigns (12:23) - If You Can See It, She Can Be It (16:33) - Partnerships (18:08) - Coaches (19:00) - Coaching Girls Guide (22:09) - Inspirational Story (24:29) - Measurements (27:00) - Advice for Colleagues (28:34) - Advice for Young People (30:17) - Last Word (31:19) - Wrap Up

This week on The Art of SBA Lending, we go behind the scenes with Heidi Whitesell to unpack the leadership, culture, challenges, and ultimate wind-down of a successful SBA lending division. Ray Drew sits down with Heidi, who he calls one of the best leaders he's ever worked for, to discuss the philosophy that created a legendary, family-like culture in a fully virtual, non-bank setting. Heidi shares the vision for her former venture, Fund-Ex, which quickly climbed the national rankings without losing its unique team culture. She reveals her leadership principles, including the powerful belief that "love always works," and explains how relentless positivity, transparency, and providing resources ahead of revenue were the keys to their success—even in a highly complex industry. The conversation takes a raw and emotional turn as Heidi opens up about navigating the intense, uncertain process of a company sale and eventual wind-down while privately battling a serious health crisis, revealing why she chose to stay and fight for her team.

In this episode of The Russell Brunson Show, I sit down with Ryan Lee (My buddy from elementary school that I'd lost touch with for over 20 years!), who built a wildly successful coaching business around landscape lighting (Yes… Landscape lighting!!) by following the Expert Secrets framework exactly as it's taught. From posting his first awkward Facebook Live while locked in a hotel room, to closing high-ticket clients and building recurring programs, Ryan's story is a real-world INSANE example of what happens when you take imperfect action and trust the process!! He went from running a service business and undercharging for his work to finding confidence, raising his prices, and turning his niche expertise into a movement. We break down the mindset shifts, the marketing strategy, and the business model behind it all…And how these same principles can work in any industry. Key Highlights: The moment he stopped waiting to be confident and started publishing anyway. How going live on Facebook every day built a loyal audience and filled his first beta high-ticket program that ultimately catapulted his business to success. Why charging more created better results for his clients and freedom for him! The exact framework he followed to turn one ‘niche' skill into a scalable, purpose-driven business that truly is his calling! If you've ever wondered whether your idea is “too small” or your audience “too niche,” Ryan's story will show you what's possible when you take consistent action and follow the right playbook!
