Podcast appearances and mentions of jasmine star

What does it actually take to grow a business in 2026, especially when the algorithm changes daily, your niche feels crowded, and you're trying to scale without burning yourself to the ground? Today, I sit down with powerhouse entrepreneur, keynote speaker, and mentor Jasmine Star for a raw conversation on marketing, mindset, and what it really looks like to build an empire with intention.   Jasmine pulls back the curtain on her journey from law school dropout to wedding photographer to multi–seven-figure CEO, sharing the exact principles she uses to help women hit consistent 10K months and beyond. Together, they break down why messaging matters more than ever, how niching is non-negotiable, and why selling gets a whole lot easier when you stop trying to be palatable and start being you.   They also dig into the biggest marketing trends coming in 2026, from the rise of "entrepreneurs with influence" to the shift toward one-to-one responsiveness and why being interesting (not just informative) is now essential for growth.   This conversation is equal parts strategic and soul-level—exactly what you'd expect from Jasmine. If you've ever wondered how to market smarter, stand out in a noisy digital world, or take action without waiting for everything to feel "perfect," this episode will light a fire under you.   Tune in to hear: How Jasmine went from zero camera experience to building a six-figure business in a year The three biggest mistakes keeping women from consistent 10K months—and how to fix them Why "messaging, niche, and sales" are the holy trinity of business growth The 2026 trends every entrepreneur needs to know (including the 3 R's: Royalty, Responsiveness & Random) Jasmine's unconventional approach to burnout—and the surprising mindset shift that pulled her out of it What it really looks like to build authority online without pretending to love social media   Connect with Jasmine: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasminestar/   Instagram: @dietitiandeanna and @online.entrepreneur.academy   Want my help and strategies to have $30, $50 or $100K launches of your online program? Apply to OEA Scale

Can we get real for a second?So many entrepreneurs are waiting to feel "ready." Waiting for the right gear, the right timing, the right confidence. But here's the thing… you'll never have enough.In this short but mighty episode, I'm sharing a powerful snippet from a past conversation with my friend Ken Coleman—also known as America's Career Coach—and whew, it's a gut check.We talk about:The myth that you need more experience, tools, or permission to start.Why being uncomfortable is part of the assignment if you're growing.The real truth about imposter syndrome (spoiler: it never goes away).And my personal “3 M's” that I lean on when the fear tries to creep in.This is a message for anyone who's sitting on a dream because they're afraid of being judged, failing publicly, or starting messy.Let me remind you: people will always have an opinion—whether you sit on the couch or start that business, whether you win or fail. So if you're going to be judged anyway, you might as well be judged while chasing your purpose.Let's normalize failing forward. Let's normalize standing up after getting knocked down—again and again. Because the people you see “winning” didn't avoid failure… they just kept getting up.The next time fear whispers, “Who are you to do this?” I want you to flip it and ask, “Who am I not to?”This episode is a short pep talk, a rally cry, and a reminder that your purpose doesn't need permission.Let's stop waiting.

Ever wondered what are successful business owners who podcast doing in 2025 that regular podcasters can replicate? The answer lies in how these entrepreneurs treat their shows as part of a larger, data-informed ecosystem—not just as a content stream. This year, podcasting for business growth is about alignment, experimentation, and audience intimacy.To find out what's actually working, I analyzed two powerhouse podcasters—Jasmine Star and Chris Do—both of whom have a catalog of over 300 episodes, and built thriving businesses before launching their shows. Their podcasts don't make their brands; they amplify them. Here's what 2025's most strategic business podcasters are doing differently—and how you can borrow their best moves.Chapters:00:00 Introduction to Podcasting Strategies from Successful Business Owners12:49 Analyzing Episode Formats and Best Practices used by Jasmine Star21:47 Maximizing Show Notes and SEO27:44 Podcast Structure and Episode Formats used by Chris Do40:14 Treating Your Podcast Like a BusinessResources mentioned in this episode:For the full list of links, resources and show notes, please visit:https://www.thepodcastspace.com/podcast/s4-106-analyzing-podcast-content-strategies-from-top-business-podcasters

In today's marketplace, it seems the best teachers, trainers, and guides must also become performers. We call it “content creators” and if you're not devoting half or more of your time on camera or writing and posting memes, you just won't get any traction. And I find many of the best teachers, trainers, and guides are not naturally the performing type, and they don't want to be. And if they try, it might be embarrassing. So the gap grows between them and the performers who are grabbing the spotlight, getting the attention, and quite possibly selling an inferior offering. What do we do? My guest today is an expert in the world of personal branding. Rory Vaden. I've known Rory for about a decade and watched him become one of the greatest influencers to the world's greatest influencers. His expertise is in studying the psychology of influence – which he defines as the ability to move ourselves, and others, to take action. He's become a personal advisor to many of the world's biggest personal development influencers including: Lewis Howes, Ed Mylett, Amy Porterfield, Trent Shelton, Jasmine Star, Eric Thomas, Dr. Caroline Leaf, John Maxwell and more. He is a very in demand speaker and best selling author. His business, Brand Builders Group, has grown to be a powerhouse for personal branding. But you are about to hear a very sobering conversation. You will hear Rory admit that much of the marketing game today disgusts him. And, if we have something of value, we don't need to become something we are not or do things we don't agree with, but we do need to care enough about helping people that we are willing to play the game to a degree. Even if it's not totally comfortable for us. His new book is titled, Wealthy And Well Known: Build Your Personal Brand and Turn Your Reputation Into Revenue. We talk through some of my frustrations, talk about options and solutions, and in the last quarter of the show talk about the necessity to be primarily known for…one thing. And how he believes you are most powerfully positioned to serve the person you once were.

How to Do Less and Earn More  Sometimes the fastest way to grow your business isn't about adding more — it's about letting go. In this episode, I'm outlining the five specific things I quit that unlocked my path to sustainable seven-figure growth. Each quit felt uncomfortable in the moment, but it was exactly what I needed to step into my CEO role and finally scale with confidence. If you've ever felt maxed out, stuck in the weeds, or afraid to let go of something that feels “safe,” this episode will show you what's possible when you choose to quit with intention. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ Doing It All Yourself Keeps You Stuck — Growth only happened once I stopped wearing every hat and started leading my team of contractors like a true CEO. 2️⃣ Data > Gut Decisions — Tracking my numbers (instead of avoiding them) gave me the clarity and confidence to simplify my offers and scale smarter. 3️⃣ Repeatable Systems Create Freedom — When I stopped starting from scratch and built repeatable, scalable systems, I gained momentum, peace of mind, and a reputation that fueled my business growth.

Have you ever dreamed about taking a three-week vacation without your business falling apart?Or maybe just getting a full weekend without checking Slack, Asana, or inboxes that feel like they multiply overnight?Friend, if that feels impossible... I want you to know: it's not. You just need better systems.In this solo episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes of what actually allows businesses to scale beyond 7-figures: not magic, not hustle... but systems that work without you.I've worked with business owners making $5M, $8M, and beyond—and you'd be shocked at how many of them are still stuck working in the weeds. And guess what? Most of them have one big thing in common: no solid systems.Here's the truth: you have to earn the right to climb out of the work.
