In this episode of Business Coaching Secrets, host Karl Bryan flies solo and dives into listener questions on how to break through overwhelm, stay focused while building a coaching business, and ensure long-term client retention. Karl shares real-life coaching stories, mindset strategies, and tactical frameworks—including the famous “Florida Keys” treasure analogy—to help coaches gain clarity, set bigger goals, and stop self-sabotaging. He offers advice on eliminating distractions, designing irresistible value for clients, and using powerful frameworks to multiply productivity without burning out. Key Topics Covered Overcoming Overwhelm & Getting Focused Karl tackles the all-too-common struggle of “too many things to do,” revealing how to anchor motivation in long-term, compelling goals rather than day-to-day tasks. He draws on coaching conversations and wisdom from Tony Robbins—encouraging business coaches to design a “ridiculously monstrous, compelling future” that pulls them forward. Creating Powerful Intentions & Eliminating Distractions He unpacks the importance of intentionality over mere activity. Coaches must shift from operating towards their goals to operating from their goals. The size and clarity of your objectives directly shape your daily discipline—and whether your long-term or short-term self wins the daily battles. The Florida Keys Story – Belief, Tenacity & Worthiness Karl shares the Mel Fisher treasure-hunt parable: most coaches (and business owners) ask three core questions—Is it there? Am I the one to succeed? Will it be worth it?—and only those resolutely answering “Yes” endure setbacks to ultimately win. How to Add Real Value & Extend Client Retention Instead of just “adding more” (calls, homework, videos), Karl recommends focusing on distinctions—needle-moving insights and frameworks that compound results. He explains the Jumpstart 12 system, offers call-structure hacks (including shorter, more focused sessions), and reminds coaches that keeping clients isn't about time, but about tangible profit acceleration. Mindset Mastery: Embracing Suffering & Building Wisdom Karl's Zen lesson: suffering is the path to greatness, not something to be avoided. The willingness to fail, take imperfect action, and “shed skin” is what separates high performers from those stuck on the sidelines. Notable Quotes “You don't have a client problem, you don't have a money problem, you have a refusal to help people before they pay you problem.” “Operate from your goals, not towards your goals.” “If you have powerful goals, you will have powerful intentions.” “Focus is not focus. The way to get focused is to eliminate distractions, tasks, or even clients.” “Suffering is your path to your greatness. Diamonds are created under insane heat and pressure.” “Small hinges swing big doors—work on the needle-movers, not the busywork.” Actionable Takeaways Dream Bigger and Get Specific: Anchor yourself and your clients to a monstrous, compelling vision of the future—something worth pushing through obstacles for. Eliminate to Accelerate: Focus comes from subtracting tasks, projects, or even problematic clients. Use frameworks like the Jumpstart 12 to guide your priorities. Shorter, Smarter Calls: Switch to 30-minute sessions with supporting videos for maximum impact and efficiency—it's about insights, not meeting length. Serve Before You Sell: Embrace the mindset that your first job is to help—often before payment. This builds trust and long-term relationships. Embrace the Hard Stuff: Growth lies in suffering and setbacks. Don't fear mistakes or quitting—use those feelings to reignite your purpose and drive. Focus on Profit Acceleration: If you want to retain clients for years, make sure you aren't just coaching for the sake of it. Use proven frameworks to drive up profitability—it's the surest way to lasting relationships.

Being intentional seems to be a consistent hallmark of followers of Christ. Because Christ is our best example of intentionality. Intentionality is defined as being deliberate or purposeful. How about you? How are you working with intentionality today? In the office, with your co-workers, intentionally representing Christ and showing His love and patience to everyone you come in contact with? Most days we may just be unconsciously going through our work day. We invite you to begin today by going before the father and asking Him: "Here's all I have, what do YOU want me to do with it today? What is YOUR priority today, Lord?" And then living that out as we step into our work, and every other place our feet may wander.
In this episode, I'm joined by Sherri Sinclair—an incredible instructional coach, author, and thought partner. Together, we dive into the heart of what great teaching looks like.Sherri brings deep wisdom from her new book, Intentional Instructional Moves, and we talk about what really makes an impact in the classroom: strong classroom management, authentic student engagement, and meaningful assessment for learning. What stands out in Sherri's approach is how practical and intentional it is—from purposeful group work to clear, focused direct instruction to differentiation that actually works for real classrooms.We also dig into why clarity, connection, and continuous feedback are so essential—not just for student success, but for building learning environments where both teachers and students thrive.If you're a coach, a school leader, or a classroom teacher, you'll walk away from this conversation with real, usable strategies you can start trying tomorrow. Intentionality isn't just a theory—it's a practice. And Sherri shows us how to do it well.Thank you for being a part of our community.Feedback: We love hearing from you!

What kind of "coincidences" have you seen in your life?
As Jesus is in Mary and Martha's home, He begins to teach. With Mary at His feet and Martha anxiously hosting, Jesus' focus is on His ultimate priority. He is the Word that speaks, shapes, stirs, and secures. Often we forget God has spoken, and the importance of carving out intentional moments with the Lord. Mary did the best thing, Martha chose to do a good thing but was filled with anxiety and missed the Word right there in her home. What's best for all of us, is to be spending time at the feet of Jesus - something that will never be taken away from us.

Join us as we explore this possibility with Pia Leichter, an author, founder, creative director and guide in this special 30-minute episode. Celebrating the Creative Potential Within Us All In our conversation with Pia, we dive into the essence of creativity as a vital force beyond the arts, challenging the common misconception that it exists solely in artistic endeavors.

Now, as the founder of Kollektiv Studio, she's uniquely positioned to co-create ventures and wild visions.

If you've been told never to sell in your welcome email, think again. In the latest episode of The Blogger Genius Podcast, I sat down with email marketing expert Kylie Kelly, who shares a powerful, unconventional strategy: selling in your very first email. And guess what? It works. If you're trying to grow your email list, convert subscribers into customers, and make sales without waiting weeks or months, this post is for you. Show Notes: MiloTree Kylie Kelly AI Ebook Prompt Generator Free Canva ebook template AI Freebie Prompt Generator Email Sales Templates Join The Blogger Genius Newsletter Become a Blogger Genius Facebook Group Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast: YouTube iTunes Spotify Why Most Creators Get Email Wrong A common myth in email marketing is that you need to “warm up” your audience before making any offer. Kylie calls this out. Why wait, she asks, when your new subscriber is most engaged right now—immediately after signing up for your freebie? This is the moment they're most open to hearing from you. They've just said, “Yes, I trust you.” So why not show them exactly how you can help? Here's What to Do Instead Kylie breaks it down simply: ✅ Send a single, value-packed welcome email Instead of a 5-part welcome sequence, Kylie delivers the freebie and introduces herself and sells—all in the same email. ✅ Include your offer in the PS She doesn't hit people over the head with it. She simply adds a quick, “P.S. I also have this membership—check it out if you're ready to go deeper.” That's it. And it converts. ✅ Follow up with a short nurture sequence After that first email, she sends a few value-packed emails that build trust and explain the benefits of her offer. This works because it's honest, direct, and respects the reader's time. Want to Build Your Email List Fast—Without Social Media? You don't need a huge following or a complicated funnel to grow your list.
AMDG. “Don't feel like it's too late— you can pick this up and study and learn about it anytime you want.” Author of the brand-new book We Have a Pope Katie Bogner and Kolbe kindergarten teacher Kimberly Wolf join the Kolbecast to share their experience talking to young students about the new pope and papal election process. Katie explains the inspiration behind her new book, how she simplified her explanation of a papal conclave to make it appropriate for young readers, and what her writing process looks like (“They have all actually started as really detailed spreadsheets,” she notes). Kimberly shares stories of watching the papal election with her students and the questions they asked, as well as how she used Katie's resources in her classroom. The duo reflects on avoiding politics in the midst of papal news and the importance of continuing celebration. “Ride this wave as Catholics,” Katie says, “Keep celebrating.” Related links: We Have a Pope published by the St. Paul Center & illustrated by Kortnee Senn of Studio Senn Follow @stpaulcenter @emmausroadpublishing and @katherine.bogner on Instagram.

In this conversation, we explore: The Meaning of Minimalism: Shira discusses how minimalism is not just about owning less but being radically intentional with your time, energy, and resources, and how it helps to clarify your values and priorities. The Power of Volume, Systems, and Habits: We dive into Shira's toolkit for simplifying life, which includes managing the volume of commitments, setting up simple systems, and creating sustainable habits that align with your goals. The Volume Problem: Shira explains why many people's clutter and stress aren't about disorganization, but about the sheer volume of things they're trying to manage, and how reducing that volume can be transformative. Creating Simple Systems for Busy Lives: We discuss how simple, intuitive systems (like Shira's easy filing method) can save time, reduce friction, and maintain order without overwhelming yourself with complexity. The Importance of Saying No: Shira emphasizes the importance of recognizing when to say no to commitments, distractions, and activities that don't align with your core values, which is critical for maintaining clarity and energy. Shira's insights provide practical strategies to help you simplify your home, work, and life, creating the space and time needed for what really matters.

In this powerhouse conversation, Mark Jewell sits down with Neil and Mark of The Andersons for a deep dive into intentional leadership, team development, and cultivating a culture that outlives any one leader.Together, they reflect on decades of experience in agribusiness, revealing how communication, humility, structure, and a relentless commitment to people-first values have shaped one of the most respected organizations in the industry. If you're leading through growth, change, or succession—this episode is packed with wisdom you don't want to miss.Key Takeaways:Intentional Leadership Starts with Vision and RhythmBoth Neil and Mark stress the importance of building consistent communication rhythms and having clarity around values and goals. Intentionality isn't just a buzzword—it's how you lead teams through complexity without losing your center.Empowerment Over MicromanagementTrue leadership means creating space for others to grow. Neil and Mark model a hands-off, eyes-on approach—coaching, not controlling—and emphasize that empowering younger leaders requires letting go of ego and embracing vulnerability.Culture Doesn't Live on the Wall—It Lives in ActionThe Andersons' Statement of Principles is more than a document; it's a living culture reflected in how people lead, communicate, and show up daily. Leadership that walks the talk creates retention, attraction, and trust.Entrepreneurial Spirit with GuardrailsLeaders at The Andersons are encouraged to think like owners—each profit center runs like its own business. But that freedom is grounded in strong values, intentional mentoring, and clear alignment with the company's bigger mission.Work-Life Balance is Real—If You Design for ItFrom missed ballgames to strategic delegation, both leaders open up about the tension between achievement and presence. Their reminder? If you don't schedule space to recharge, the business will take it all.Notable Quotes:“For my team to become more, I had to become less.” – Neil Schuller“Culture isn't in a file cabinet. It's what people see, feel, and experience every day.” – Mark Hobrock“Entrepreneurial energy has to be supported by vision, communication, and trust.” – Neil Schuller“Vulnerability is not weakness—it's what makes our teams stronger.” – Mark Hobrock“If the customer is winning, the employee wins, the community wins, and the shareholder wins.

Hey mission fam! In episode 206 - The Benefits of a Holding Pattern, I'm diving deep into the concept of a "holding pattern" - something we often judge ourselves for, but which can actually be incredibly powerful and necessary. I share how these periods of seeming stillness aren't about procrastination or laziness, but can be sacred spaces of healing, regrouping, and intentional preparation. Drawing from aviation analogies and personal experiences (like President Utchdorf), I explore how holding patterns protect us from rushed decisions and give us time to reconnect with ourselves and God. Whether you're a missionary going through the motions, a returned missionary processing your experience, or someone waiting on a big life decision, this episode will help you see these moments not as setbacks, but as valuable parts of your growth journey. I wrap up by sharing a beautiful scripture from Psalms - "Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him" - and encourage listeners to view their holding patterns as intentional, holy spaces. My hope is that you'll walk away with more compassion for yourself and understanding that you're always progressing, even when it doesn't look like forward movement. As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review. I know this work will help LDS missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did. Until next week my friends.

Instagram: @thegolfhypnotherapist Twitter: @parsoverbogeys Key Takeaways: Emotion is energy in motion; repressed emotions silently drain your fuel tank before you even reach the first tee. You can't outperform your energetic budget—when you're depleted, you fall back on old habits, not rise to your goals. Small energy leaks (like skipping warmups or doom scrolling) compound into massive performance drops over time. Large emotional leaks stem from unresolved trauma, guilt, grief, or shame that often go unnoticed but massively impact performance. Most golfers don't lack information—they lack energy and emotional regulation to follow through. Behavior change and habit formation require a large upfront energy investment—impossible when you're already drained. Protecting your energy isn't optional—it's the foundation for becoming the golfer and person you're capable of being. Key Quotes: “Emotion is energy in motion. And if you don't process it, it doesn't disappear—it just quietly drains you.” “You don't have a mindset problem. You have an energy problem.” “When you're running on empty, you don't rise to the occasion—you fall back to your habits.” “Lack of intentionality and unresolved emotion are two of the biggest fuel leaks in your game and your life.” “The version of you that plays to your potential needs energy to come online. Protect your energy like your life depends on it.” Time Stamps: 00:00: The Energy Leak Analogy 05:02: Understanding Emotional Energy 10:05: The Impact of Repressed Emotions 14:49: Identifying Energy Leaks 20:00: Strategies for Energy Management 25:03: The Importance of Intentionality 30:05: Conclusion and Call to Action

There are moments when sitting down to do something meaningful feels physically uncomfortable, like your brain is actively protesting. You open your laptop with the best intentions, and five minutes later, you're in a black hole of browser tabs, group chats, and a suspicious number of snack breaks. Why is it so hard to focus, especially on the stuff that actually matters? In this episode, I unpack the science behind that resistance, why our brains crave distraction, how dopamine has hijacked our motivation system, and why chasing pleasure might be the exact thing pulling us away from purpose.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you'll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room).

Most self-help advice makes me cringe. Vision boards, “manifesting,” and the whole daily affirmation thing? Yeah, I've always put that in the woo-woo category. But lately, I've been stuck in my head, wrestling with self-doubt, perfectionism, and the classic case of overthinking everything. So I decided to try something that made me deeply uncomfortable: staring at myself in the mirror and saying things like “I am enough.” And no, I didn't spontaneously combust from secondhand embarrassment. In this episode, I test daily affirmations for a week, even the corny ones, and rope my wife into writing a few that are, well, questionable at best.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you'll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room).

If your conversations are starting to feel more like combat, you're not alone. In this powerful episode, Michael and Megan sit down with Jefferson Fisher—trial attorney, social media sensation, and author of The Next Conversation—to talk about the small shifts that create major breakthroughs in communication. From regulating your nervous system to choosing connection over triumph, this episode is packed with practical, actionable tools you can use today.Memorable Quotes“When you set out to win an argument, you often will lose the relationship. If you only see it as something to win, that means you're going to lose a lot more.”“Who wants to be around the person who always has to be right? That is somebody who is lonely.”“Instead of seeing arguments as something to win, you see them as something to unravel.”“You don't have to like it. You just gotta understand it.”“That's the key with connection: I can disagree with you and still connect with you. I can still be unhappy, I can still be mad at you, and still connect with you.”“You are in complete control of the pace of the conversation.”“When you don't say it with control, you end up reacting rather than responding. It's just your natural fight or flight will take over and you're going to start responding more emotionally.”“You gotta let them pour it all out before they'll ever be willing to accept anything that you say.”Key TakeawaysArguments Aren't Battles. If your goal is to win, you've already lost. Reframe arguments as something to unravel, not conquer.Start With Self-Control. Nervous system regulation is the key to effective communication—especially when things get tense.Use “Small Talks.” Short, verb-based phrases like “be still” or “practice kindness” can center you in high-stakes conversations.Connection > Agreement. We don't always have to be on the same page to cultivate a meaningful relationship.Confidence Follows Action. Speak with assertiveness, not apology. Confidence grows as you use your voice.ResourcesThe Next Conversation: Argue Less, Talk MoreJefferson Fisher on InstagramThe Jefferson Fisher PodcastWatch on YouTube at: https://youtu.be/kJsQe3S3rw0This episode was produced by Sarah Vorhees Wendel of VW Sound

A solution that no one has thought of. A little humor to sprinkle into someone's day. But, most people don't think about social media like that.
