In this episode of High Functioning - an off shoot of the Chasing Heroine podcast, I'm sharing my all-time favorite mindset tool, one that has the power to completely change how you experience everything that happens to you. It's Jack Canfield's E + R = O formula (Event + Response = Outcome), and once you have it, you can't unsee it.The core idea is this: you can't control what happens to you, but your response is where all of your power lives, and that response is what determines your outcome. This means that no matter what life throws at you, you have more control than you think.I walk you through four stories from my own life so you can see exactly how this plays out in real time:The Black Friday sale at my fitness studio, where I turned an objectively great sales day into anxiety and regret purely through my response, and what that cost meMy addiction, which I now see as the best thing that ever happened to me, showing you that even your hardest chapters can be reframed into fuelA collaborator canceling last-minute on a creative project, where choosing my response over my reaction led to a better outcome than I originally plannedA near-relapse at McDonald's in early recovery, where one split-second response decision changed the entire trajectory of my lifeBy the end, you'll be looking back at your own life and spotting every moment you already did this without realizing it, and more importantly, you'll know how to start doing it on purpose.DM me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Message me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Listen AD FREE & workout with me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Connect with me on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email me chasingheroine@gmail.comSee you next week!

This is not an episode about farming or fuel prices. It is a conversation about what happens when you get everything you thought you wanted and still feel empty on the bathroom floor of a condo you own. It is about terminal uniqueness -- the belief that nobody could possibly understand -- and the slow, expensive way most of us learn it isn't true. Trevor and I met earlier this year in a leadership course he was teaching with Corliss Russell. I broke down in the intro. A room full of oilfield and farm guys went there with me.

If you want to get ahead in your business, it's time to stop being the technician and start stepping into the manager, and visionary roles. Our host, Diane Rolston, references one of the most important business books she's ever read E-Myth Revisited. She explains something so many business owners experience but don't have the language for and why most women are stuck over-functioning in exactly the wrong role.Listen to learn these key takeaways:Why going out on your own means you didn't just become the technician. You became every other role in the company too, whether you wanted to or notThe three key roles from E-Myth Revisited: what each one is responsible for and the critical question each role is constantly askingWhy most entrepreneurs skip one of these three roles completely and why that's exactly why things feel chaoticThe dangerous comfort zone most women over-function in: why it feels productive but is quietly keeping the business stuckWhat happens when your head is down doing the work all day and the two perspectives you completely lose access toWhy the manager and visionary roles keep getting neglected and what the real cost of that neglect is to your businessWhere a Virtual Assistant fits into all three roles: not just taking tasks off your plate, but actually strengthening a specific role you've been neglectingHow support becomes truly transformational when it frees you to operate as the visionary and when businesses actually start to scaleThe honest reminder: the goal isn't to stop being the technician entirely (you're good at it for a reason)One final question to ask yourself right now about which role actually needs more of your attention firstComing up next: why smart, capable women struggle so much to delegate in the first place and why it's almost never about skill.Free resources to get started with your own virtual assistant: "Top 10 Questions to Ask a VA Company When You Want to Hire a VA" by Diane Rolston: https://app.groove.cm/groovemember/download/xylsp51fbe3b909e70d43d635f85fa3f115b5229 Tasks You Can Delegate: https://keap.page/mw315/229-tasks-you-can-delegate1.html5 Problems in Delegating: https://bit.ly/5ProblemsofDelegatingYour Virtual Assistant Readiness Scorecard: https://www.dianerolston.com/blog/still-doing-it-all-yourself-your-virtual-assistant-readiness-scorecardBook a time to chat with Diane directly to get your own vetted Dynamic VA: https://www.dianerolston.com/booking.htmlWant to be invited to join Diane's NEW high-level, like-minded group of women?

It is our opportunity to avail ourselves of the gifts that we are offered no matter which way it presents itself.

In a marketplace where AI is making information and expertise more accessible than ever, standing out has become harder—and more important. If your customers see you as just another option, you're likely leaving growth, loyalty, and valuation on the table. In this episode, Jim Schleckser sits down with branding strategist and futurist Kelly O'Neill to explore what branding really means, why it's much more than logos and marketing campaigns, and how CEOs can build a meaningful brand connection that creates a true competitive advantage. In this episode, you'll discover: How to identify and communicate the unique differentiator that strengthens brand connection and separates your business from seemingly identical competitors. Why every customer interaction either reinforces or breaks your brand promise—and what leaders must do to ensure alignment across the organization. How AI is reshaping markets, consumer behavior, and thought leadership, making authentic brand connection more valuable than ever before. Listen now to learn how a stronger brand connection can help your business stand apart, attract the right customers, and build a lasting competitive advantage in an increasingly AI-driven world. Check out: 2:45 – Branding Is More Than a Logo Kelly challenges the common misconception that branding is logos and visuals, explaining that branding is the feeling your company creates in the minds of customers and how that drives buying decisions. 16:30 – Finding Your Competitive Differentiator Kelly shares practical examples of how businesses—from law firms to luxury home builders—discovered their unique "unicorn" advantage and used it to create stronger brand connection and stand apart from competitors. 35:00 – Why AI Makes Branding More Important Than Ever The conversation shifts to the future, where Kelly explains how AI is leveling access to information and expertise, making authentic brand connection, thought leadership, judgment, and trust the new competitive advantages.

Stress is never going away, but Dr. Gary Sprouse believes we can change the way we understand and manage it. In this episode of Health Coach Conversations, Cathy Sykora talks with Dr. Sprouse about why many people who feel overwhelmed may not be depressed—they may simply be carrying too many problems at once. He explains how worry, guilt, regret, low self-esteem, and overwhelm can be side effects of valuable human skills, and why the goal is not to lose those skills but to reduce the side effects. Dr. Sprouse also shares practical tools like "delumping," the empathy wall, realistic optimism, and the worry organizer to help people separate stressors, shift perspective, and regain control. This conversation is especially helpful for health coaches and practitioners who support clients through stress, overwhelm, and behavior change. In this episode, you'll discover: Why Dr. Sprouse says stress is an unavoidable part of adapting to a changing world How worry, guilt, regret, overwhelm, boredom, and low self-esteem can be side effects of human skills Why some people labeled as depressed may actually be overwhelmed How "delumping" helps separate problems so they feel more manageable What the "happy place" is and why it includes gratitude, joy, anticipation, fulfillment, contentment, connection, safety, humor, and hope How health coaches can use an "empathy wall" to care about clients without taking on their stress How realistic optimism and a worry organizer can help clients stop spiraling and take practical action Memorable Quotes: "Stress is our adaption to a changing world with our changing self." "The majority of human stresses are side effects to having a skill." "The more separate you keep them, the less overwhelmed you're going to be."

Lawrence Ellyard, shares his powerful journey that began with a simple parking ticket

When your income starts to scale, the instinct is to focus on earning more and delegate everything else. You build momentum, create cash flow, and then hand your capital over to advisors, funds, and institutions that are supposed to manage it efficiently in the background. The system looks sophisticated, regulated, and optimized, so it feels like the right move. But what many high-income earners and investors don't realize is that the biggest risk to their wealth often isn't the market… It's the structure their money sits inside. Because once capital is placed into systems you don't fully understand, small decisions start compounding in almost invisible ways. Fees that seem insignificant begin to erode long-term growth.  Portfolios that look diversified turn out to be overlapping and inefficient. And over time, instead of compounding wealth, you're quietly leaking it. In this episode of Money School Elite, I sit down with Robert Rolih, investor, entrepreneur, and author of The Million Dollar Decision, to break down what really happens to your money after you've made it. In this conversation, we discuss why small, seemingly harmless fees can significantly delay your financial freedom, how a lack of visibility into your own portfolio creates hidden risk, and why many investors don't actually know what they own. About the Guest    Robert Rolih is an entrepreneur, bestselling author, and long-term investing expert known for exposing Wall Street's hidden traps and teaching investors how to simplify wealth building. He is the international bestselling author of The Million Dollar Decision: Get Out of the Rigged Game of Investing and Add a Million to Your Net Worth, a book that has received glowing reviews from readers around the world. His mission is to reveal what the financial industry doesn't want you to know about investing, helping people greatly improve their long-term investing gains and take control of their financial future. Today, Robert has a thriving investment portfolio that serves him, not the financial industry. As a sought-after speaker, he shares his expertise with audiences worldwide, helping people avoid costly mistakes and achieve financial freedom. His ability to break down complex financial concepts into simple, engaging lessons and make investing interesting and fun has become his trademark. Robert was featured in more than 50 newspapers, websites, and TV stations, including CNBC, Yahoo Finance, Newsmax TV, Business Insider, and has had the honor of sharing the stage with renowned figures such as Robert Kiyosaki, Gary Vaynerchuk, Brian Tracy, Jack Canfield, Daniel Priestley, and many others.

Dr. Allen Lycka is acknowledged as one of the leading cosmetic dermatologists globally for three decades.

He was treated and practiced for another 16 years as a cosmetic dermatologist. He retired in 2019 to help others overcome adversity as he did.

Have you ever gotten to the end of your day and thought "I worked all day, but I didn't actually move anything forward"?

How often does an employee's personality get mistaken for a performance problem, quietly undermining productivity across teams? In this episode of Productivity Smarts, host Gerald J. Leonard sits down with Ariel Vox, award-winning author of Crack the Luck Code. Ariel blends psychology, storytelling, and leadership to help individuals unlock hidden strengths. Drawing on her unique LUCK personality archetypes, Lion, Umbrella Cockatoo, Coral, and Koala, she explains why high achievers often feel stuck, how weaknesses can become superpowers, and why one-size-fits-all productivity advice rarely works. Gerald and Ariel explore how understanding your dominant archetype (and those of your team or family) can transform communication, reduce conflict, and dramatically improve results. From the goal-driven Lion who needs big challenges to the detail-obsessed Koala who struggles to launch, you'll learn practical ways to work smarter, not harder. Ariel shares memorable analogies (including how each archetype would talk about buying a car) and real-world applications for leaders, employees, and families. She also opens up about sharing the stage with legends Les Brown and Jack Canfield, and the powerful lesson she learned about owning your unique voice. If you've ever felt misunderstood at work or home, or if you're leading a team that just can't seem to click, this episode will help you decode the personalities around you and unlock a new level of productivity.   What We Discuss [00:00] Introduction [02:01] Meet Ariel Vox and Cracking the Luck Code [05:04] Book Crack the Luck Code and  the four archetypes [06:26] L.U.C.K acronym explained [06:56] Lion personality [08:20] Umbrella Cockatoo (Parrot) personality [09:08] Coral personality [09:46] Koala personality [11:07] The car analogy [14:54] Communicating by personality type [15:42] Weaknesses as strengths [17:02] Balancing traits for growth [19:26] Gerald's mix (Lion + Koala) [21:18] Most people are mixed types [22:48] Goal setting for Lions [24:59] Productivity pitfalls and burnout [26:18] Leading different types [29:18] Travel plans for a family of four with different personalities [30:44] Stress and personality awareness [31:57] Lessons from Les Brown & Jack Canfield [33:41] One practical productivity tip you can apply today [34:41] Owning your unique value and voice [36:46] Where to find Ariel and her book [38:46] Podcast outro   Notable Quotes [05:30] " The reason productivity is very low sometimes, so with some people, some employees is because often they remain misunderstood." – Ariel Vox [05:59] " By overcoming these negative qualities, they achieve their superpowers."  – Ariel Vox [06:41] " No one is just one expression of personality, but some of them are more dominant than others."  – Ariel Vox [07:13] " Lions, they get excited by big goals.

Why Love Feels Hard When You're Overthinking It In this episode of Midlife Love Out Loud, Junie Moon sits down with transformative teacher and bestselling author Michael Neill to explore why love often feels so hard and how overthinking quietly sabotages connection. Michael shares a radically simple understanding of how the mind works and why insight, not effort, is what actually creates ease, clarity, and deeper relationships. Together, they unpack why trying harder in love often backfires and how letting go of mental noise opens the door to real intimacy. This conversation is especially powerful for anyone navigating dating, relationships, or emotional overwhelm in midlife and wondering why patterns keep repeating despite doing all the work. If you've ever felt stuck in your head, burned out on self improvement, or confused about why love feels harder than it should, this episode offers a refreshing and hopeful perspective. In this episode, you'll learn • Why overthinking blocks intimacy and connection • How insight changes relationships without effort • The difference between fixing yourself and understanding your mind • Why love becomes easier when you stop managing it • How clarity naturally emerges when the mind settles Michael Neill is a globally recognized transformative teacher, author, and speaker, celebrated for weaving profound insights into practical strategies that elevate leadership and performance. With more than 30 years as a coach and adviser, he has catalyzed breakthroughs for founders, CEOs, creative artists, and executives across sectors—finance, energy, manufacturing, media, and beyond—dispelling the myth that stress is essential for growth. He maintains a small private practice coaching high achievers to peak performance, and has consistently been ranked among the top thirty coaching thought leaders alongside icons like Jack Canfield, Marshall Goldsmith, and Tony Robbins.

There is a friendship gap that no one seems to talk about, but we all feel it or at least a lot of high achievers feel it. Listen as Diane Rolston reveals what that friendship gap actually is and why you might relate to it more than you think. She shares the third episode in her “Friendships” series, exploring the gap that's not about how many friends but something deeper than that.Listen to learn these key takeaways:The paradox high achievers experience: having a really full life but still feeling really disconnectedWhy knowing lots of people doesn't mean feeling deeply known The circles of friendship concept: proximity versus closeness, and why high achievers have wide circles but struggle to go deepReal-life examples of things we say that create the gapWhy likes and comments on social media maintain connection but don't deepen friendship and what actually creates the feeling of being seen and supportedThe pattern Diane noticed from age 16: sharing feelings often results in the other person sharing right back, leaving no space to actually be vulnerableWhy Diane pays people to support her and what this reveals about finding safe spaces to let your guard downThe Hawaii story: where a friend say something new in Diane, and what that revealedWhat success in life looks like without satisfaction and why friendships are the area to focus on to close this gapThe critical distinction: it's not about the width of friendship (having 50 people), it's about the depth of friendshipsListen to the previous episodes of the Friendships series:The 50 Friends by 50 Challenge (And What It's Teaching Me) with Diane Rolston (DW358): https://dynamic-women.captivate.fm/episode/the-50-friends-by-50-challenge-and-what-its-teaching-me-with-diane-rolston-dw358Why High-Achieving Women Struggle to Maintain Friendships with Diane Rolston (DW359): https://dynamic-women.captivate.fm/episode/why-high-achieving-women-struggle-to-maintain-friendships-with-diane-rolston-dw359Want to be invited to join Diane's NEW high-level, like-minded group of women?

หลักการ success จาก Jack Canfield #5

What happens when your ambitions outgrow your current life? A few months after going alcohol-free, I was sitting at a park, on my lunch break from my day job, reading a Jack Canfield book. All of a sudden I found myself writing down the most outrageous goals. Next fall I'll tour the US on my book tour. I want to make millions of dollars. I want to be a top speaker. I had no social media presence, no personal brand at the time. And yet, I was so freaking audacious.  This episode is about the phenomenon of having embarrassingly huge ambitions after going alcohol-free, including four things I wish I knew when I was first starting Euphoric.   IN THIS EPISODE: The secret side effect of ditching alcohol and my thoughts on quality vs. quantity The value of surrounding yourself with other enormously ambitious people What you need to be doing online to create dream opportunities, money, and influence Why being willing to embarrass yourself is going to set you apart from the crowd The $500 mistake that cost me a year of revenue (and what I'd do instead)   LINKS/RESOURCES MENTIONED If you know you're meant to help other people change their relationship with alcohol and create a profitable online brand, apply now for the Empowered AF Coach 5x Certification – and get 5x certified as a world class alcohol-free empowerment coach, subconscious change coach, success coach, NLP practitioner, and hypnosis practitioner and implement our 0 to $100k Coach Method™ as your build a profitable brand.  We're recording full video episodes now.

What if the key to transforming an entire organization started with the same foundation you learned in kindergarten? Marcia Martin is one of the most prolific influencers in thought leadership over the last 40 years. Renowned as a top transformational trainer and executive coach worldwide, she has provided training for global organizations in over 20 countries. Her clients include Capital One, Warner Bros., InterContinental Hotels, American Cancer Society, Chase Bank, Allianz, McCain Foods, Evian Water, Danone Group, and Hard Rock International. A pioneer of the human potential movement, Marcia served as Vice President and Board Member of Erhard Seminars Training, now known as the Landmark Forum, helping grow its graduate base from inception to millions within a decade. She has consulted for LifeSpring, Robbins Research, Jack Canfield Seminars, Wealth Dynamics, and the Money and You Seminars, and notably organized the film shoot of The Secret: Law of Attraction with Executive Producer Rhonda Byrne. Her memoir, Sex, Power and Transformation, is available now on Amazon.   [00:04:00] At the Birth of the Human Potential Movement Marcia was present at the very beginning of the human potential movement in San Francisco in 1971 Left the University of Washington at 20 for a spiritual quest during the era of the flower children and Haight-Ashbury Apprenticed with her aunt, a clairvoyant healer and esoteric astrologist, who taught her to go inward for answers That training shaped her core belief: answers come from within, not from outside of yourself [00:06:00] Werner Erhard and the EST Years Attended Werner Erhard's very first guest seminar and recognized his message as aligned with what her aunt had taught her Joined the team and became Senior Vice President of EST, helping grow it from 30 people to over 800,000 graduates Was responsible for marketing, sales, training guest seminar leaders, and filling all events Learned both what to do and what not to do by watching how fame and wealth changed people up close [00:11:00] Organizing the Film Shoot for The Secret Co-created the Transformational Leadership Council with Jack Canfield, bringing together top thought leaders and coaches Received a call from Rhonda Byrne, an Australian TV producer, asking to film the group for what became The Secret Ended up organizing the entire film shoot, squeezed into a tiny borrowed office at her country club in Aspen, Colorado Rhonda's skill in editing made the cramped shoot look cinematic [00:19:00] The Night Werner Put Her in Front of 2,500 People Marcia started out speaking to guests on the edge of a bed in a bedroom; groups grew to 20, then 50, then hundreds The day of a major 2,500-person event, Werner told her she would be leading it instead of him She refused, panicked, and was furious; her largest audience to that point had been 150 people His advice: find one person in the crowd, look at them, and remember how much you love them [00:24:00] Empowerment Over Micromanagement Werner's decision to trust Marcia with that event became the defining lesson of her leadership philosophy Most senior executives she works with today are micromanagers who unwittingly signal they don't trust their people Her belief: if a leader is micromanaging, it is not just a lack of trust in others but a lack of trust in themselves True empowerment means giving people room to make mistakes and grow into their potential [00:27:00] The ABCs of Leadership: Her Three-Day Transformation Marcia's flagship offering is a three-day intensive for senior leadership teams of entrepreneurial organizations Covers leadership, championship performance, communication mastery, relationships, confidence, mindset, and causing action Mentored by Buckminster Fuller, Peter Drucker, Jerry Weintraub, and Werner Erhard; she now passes those lessons on   KEY QUOTES "So many human beings look outside of themselves to find answers. We haven't been taught how to go within and connect with our own higher power." - Marcia Martin "Werner was smart enough to give me the room and the empowerment to get it done. He didn't micromanage me, he trusted me and he made a good bet on me." - Marcia Martin "I've figured out the concepts, the fundamentals, the ABCs of leadership and championship performance, and put them together in a way that is fun." - Marcia Martin CONNECT WITH MARCIA MARTIN

This one feels a little vulnerable to share. It started with a post Diane almost didn't publish… her goal of having 50 meaningful friendships by the time she turns 50.In this episode, she opens up about the “50 Friends by 50” challenge, why it matters more than she expected, and what it's revealing for her.She also gets honest about the difference between knowing many people and having truly close friendships—and why she's choosing to be more intentional about making that change.Listen to learn these key takeaways:The high school revelation: knowing lots of people from sports, clubs, and student council, but sitting at home waiting for the call about where everyone was going and never getting itWhy everyone thought everyone else was inviting Diane to parties, and the shock when a Toastmasters friend said, "I thought you would have so many friends to hike with."The uncomfortable truth about running eight Dynamic Women® locations with hundreds of women, but feeling weird asking people to her birthday partiesWhat happened at other people's 50th birthday parties that made Diane think "Wow, I want that" The friend who taught Diane how to build closer friendships by doing one simple thing every week (and how it made Diane feel special)The powerful realization: "I've been intentional about growing my business, but not nearly as intentional about growing my friendships."Why the meal train story revealed something Diane didn't want to admit, and the baby shower question that felt weird to answerThe moment Diane almost deleted the post, and the amazing response that showed how common this feeling actually isWhat Diane discovered in her phone notes when she started categorizing potential friends into groupsThe three upcoming episodes Diane is planning about friendships, including the friendship gap no one is talking aboutThis isn't about the party with 50 friends. It's about the process and the joy that come with strong friendships and not leaving connection to chance. Can you relate? If knowing lots of people but not having tons of close friends resonates with you, share this with a friend (or potential friend) to start the conversation.Want to be invited to join Diane's NEW high-level, like-minded group of women?

If you've ever felt that pull toward something that doesn't make sense on paper, then you'll want to listen. Our host, Diane Rolston, shares why she said yes to a one-woman show and why you don't need permission to do whatever is calling you.And the truth is, Diane isn't doing this because she's qualified (she's definitely not). She's doing it because it's been calling her, and instead of overthinking it, she just said yes. Listen to learn these key takeaways:Why most people ignore the thing that keeps calling them, pushing it down until eventually someone else does it, and you're furious watching themThe uncomfortable truth for high achievers: what we look for before saying yes and why that's blocking youWhy Diane said yes to a one-woman show even though it's not strategic, not a great financial move, and she has zero theatre background or knowledge of how to write a scriptThe powerful permission: wanting to do something is enough reason to explore it (you don't need more justification than that)What happens when you say yesWhy you don't need to know where it leads before you start The nurse's heartbreaking observation of people in their final daysOne simple question to stop overthinkingReady to shift your wealth?

Inspired by the leadership principle E + R = O, popularized by Jack Canfield, this episode explores how events don't determine our outcomes—our responses do. While we can't control everything that happens to us, we always control how we respond. Leaders understand that their response ultimately shapes the outcome.
