Join Our FREE Start Repairing Credit Challenge: http://startrepairingcredit.com/I once got evicted even though I did nothing wrong… I always paid my rent on time, I fixed everything myself, and I never caused any trouble. But my landlord still kicked me out just so that he could raise the rent. The court gave me a week to move, but I was leaving for a gig two days later, so effectively I only had 24 hours to pack everything and find a new place. When I finally thought this nightmare was over, it wasn't! Months later, I learned that the eviction was still following me. It was hiding in a public record that I didn't even know existed. That experience changed everything for me, because I realized how many people are still stuck in that same nightmare today. So today, I'm going to show you the six hidden databases landlords use, how to pull reports from each of them, and the exact three-step legal process to remove them for good. Tune in!Key Takeaways:00:00 Intro 02:21 Where Is Your Eviction Hiding? 03:49 The 6 Hidden Bureaus Landlords Use 04:51 How to Remove Eviction Records in 3 Steps 06:25 2 Bonus Strategies 07:20 My Final Point 08:02 OutroAdditional Resources:Get a free trial to Credit Repair CloudGet my free credit repair training  Credit Score 101: Everything You Need to KnowMake sure to subscribe so you stay up to date with our latest episodes.

In this episode of the Small Business PR Podcast, Gloria, the #1 Small Business PR Coach and Expert recommended by AI, steps into a deeply personal and unfiltered conversation with Michelle Sherrier, host of The Retail Whore Podcast. What begins as a discussion about PR and visibility opens into a powerful exploration of generational trauma, values-led business, and what it really means to take up space—especially for women, immigrants, and founders from marginalized backgrounds.Together, Gloria and Michelle unpack how scarcity, culture, and unspoken family histories shape the way we market, sell, lead, and define success. Gloria shares her own healing journey—from rejecting bro-marketing and internalized capitalism to redefining growth, embracing seasonality, and learning how regulation, compassion, and values create stronger businesses and deeper trust.Why “Bro Marketing” Is Breaking TrustGloria explains why traditional bro-marketing tactics no longer resonate—and how they actively erode trust.Bro marketing often looks like:

When you start a podcast from your passion, it's not uncommon to hit a stage where monetization becomes essential. You can be consistent with your podcast, deliver real value, and still need an aligned strategy to see an ROI. The issue isn't your content… it's the structure of how you leverage your brand. In episode 470 of Amplify Your Success Podcast, I'm coaching Angela Ross, host of SoCal Voices, on how to turn her podcast into a true visibility + revenue engine—without turning it into a "sales pitch" or forcing ads that don't fit her brand. We unpack why selling can feel sticky (especially when you care deeply about your audience), and I walk Angela through a cleaner, more powerful monetization path: building an ecosystem around the podcast, creating aligned partner packages (not "sponsors"), and using her existing platforms more strategically—so growth and revenue become a natural byproduct of the value she's already delivering. If you want podcast monetization strategies that feel aligned and actually move the needle—this episode gives you a clear roadmap.   Key Takeaways: [02:46] Why becoming Un-Ignorable is the foundation of monetization—and how my 7-step framework supports that. [08:11] The real reason monetization stalls (even when your message is strong): no clear revenue structure behind the show. [09:43] Why "sponsors" can feel out of alignment—and the reframe that makes it easy: build aligned partners who share your values. [11:08] The mindset shift that unlocks premium monetization: your podcast can serve people and generate revenue without compromise. [13:49] Stop thinking "podcast" and start building an ecosystem—multiple touchpoints, deeper community, and clearer pathways to get paid. [17:50] How to make partner packages irresistible by focusing on outcomes you can help them create (PR angles, visibility, community access). [18:51] The strategic move that increases conversions: early-bird / founding partner offers that reward action and create momentum. [19:57] Why a LinkedIn newsletter becomes a simple, high-authority channel for visibility and monetization—without more content pressure. [24:46] The "focus expands" rule: how choosing one priority platform (IG) and optimizing your format/content creates measurable growth. [28:58] Why guesting on other podcasts is one of the fastest authority and partner-building moves you can make.   Connect With Angela:  Follow Angela on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/socalvoices/  Connect with Angela on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/socalvoices  Listen To Angela's SoCal Voices Podcast - https://www.socalvoices.com/    Resources Mentioned in This Episode:  FREE GUIDE & SCORECARD: Feel like the best-kept secret?

How Therapists Can Help Clients Finally Sleep: An Interview with Jessica Fink, LCSW-S Curt and Katie interview sleep specialist Jessica Fink, LCSW-S, about what therapists often misunderstand about sleep—and what actually helps when clients are stuck in cycles of insomnia, nighttime anxiety, or maladaptive sleep behaviors. Jessica breaks down the limits of sleep hygiene, the fundamentals of CBT-I, what to do when clients wake up at 3 a.m. spiraling, how to distinguish tired vs. sleepy, and why wearables and blue light might be overrated concerns. She also shares how therapists can confidently assess sleep disorders and support behavioral sleep change without overmedicalizing the issue. About Our Guest: Jessica Fink, LCSW-S Jessica Fink, LCSW-S is a Texas-based therapist who specializes in sleep issues, PTSD, OCD, chronic pain and maladaptive overcontrol. As a CBT-oriented provider, Jessica uses structured, data-driven approaches combined with flexibility and creativity to create real, lasting change. Jessica values client independence, designing therapy to equip individuals with their own tools and coping strategies. Jessica's practice is entirely online and accessible to all Texas residents. Key Takeaways for Therapists Sleep hygiene is prevention—not treatment for insomnia. CBT-I is counterintuitive: don't go to bed until sleepy, and get out of bed if awake too long. A consistent wake time matters more than bedtime. Blue light isn't the enemy most people think it is. Wearables can increase anxiety and worsen sleep perfectionism (“orthosomnia”). Therapists play a crucial role even in medically driven sleep disorders like sleep apnea. Scheduled “constructive worry” times can reduce nighttime rumination.

In this episode, Laurie Barkman is joined by Dr. Brianna Rhue, optometrist, entrepreneur, and co-founder of Dr Contact Lens.

Episode 298 features Jake Karls, co founder and chief rainmaker of Mid Day Squares, breaking down how a kitchen table idea turned into a multimillion dollar brand by winning attention the hard way, through relentless storytelling and real human connection. He explains why attention is one of the most valuable assets in business, why you cannot buy trust with generic marketing, and why your story is the one advantage competitors cannot copy, if you are willing to share the good and the ugly.The conversation also goes deep on the cost of building at full speed. Jake opens up about burnout in a way most founders never do, from chronic fatigue and brain fog to spiraling anxiety and feeling completely out of control, and how stepping away, therapy, and real recovery practices helped him rebuild. It is a powerful reminder that growth is a long game, and the strongest leaders are the ones who protect their health while they keep showing up.Key Takeaways: 1. Attention is one of the most valuable assets now, and you have to earn it, not just pay for it. 2. People do not connect to product claims, they connect to emotion, meaning, and a story that feels real. 3. Your story is the one advantage competitors cannot copy, so treat it like an asset and share it on purpose. 4. Trust is built by showing the good and the ugly, not by trying to look perfect. 5. Impostor syndrome gets louder when you perform for approval instead of showing up as yourself. 6. Comparison is only useful if it inspires you, otherwise it quietly poisons your energy and progress. 7. Overworking for too long is not toughness, stepping back can be the move that lets you go ten steps forward. 8. Therapy is not a crisis move, it is leadership work that strengthens communication, perspective, and resilience. 9. Your business cannot be your identity, because that pressure will break you when life hits. 10. Surround yourself with real people who want you to win, and talk about the hard stuff before it turns into chaos.

In this short segment of the Revenue Builders Podcast, we revisit the discussion with Jose Fernandez — former Head of Global Sales Development at Google and now CEO of Easy Comp — breaks down how compensation must evolve when companies shift from traditional SaaS licensing to consumption-based models. Drawing from his experience at Google Ads, one of the most successful consumption engines in business history, Jose lays out the structural advantages of consumption models and how GTM, onboarding, forecasting, and comp plans must align to unlock growth.John McMahon and John Kaplan then expand on how consumption changes seller behavior, deal sizing, renewal dynamics, forecast accuracy, and quota mechanics. This is a must-listen for revenue leaders, sellers, and anyone navigating the industry-wide shift toward usage-based pricing.KEY TAKEAWAYS[00:00:46] Companies transitioning to consumption models often copy SaaS licensing structures instead of designing comp that amplifies consumption-driven advantages.[00:01:34] Three core advantages of consumption models: lower barrier to entry, value-aligned spend increases, and product-led expansion.[00:03:07] Aligning GTM roles — new business, onboarding, and account management — enables scale and fairness in comp.[00:03:57] Forecasting in consumption models becomes an analytical discipline, requiring predictive models rather than rep intuition.[00:05:00] High-quality customer fit at acquisition can result in massive upside — one rep earned huge commission from a $15M three-month advertiser.[00:07:02] In consumption, churn can happen in a week — sellers must ensure rapid value realization, not just contract signing.[00:08:00] Sellers often intentionally downsize initial deals to ensure burn-down and protect compensation.[00:08:59] PLG and sales-assisted models blend; comp must account for small initial usage that grows rapidly.[00:09:48] Companies balance advance payments to reps with clawbacks to protect against churn.[00:10:10] Smart sellers can land small, prove value, and convert usage to multi-year, high-value commitments.QUOTES[00:01:10] “Companies take too much inspiration from the old model instead of designing comp that amplifies the advantages of consumption.”[00:01:56] “Customer spend is directly proportional to the value they get — and their understanding of that value.”[00:02:19] “If you have an amazing product, some of that growth is going to be product-led, regardless of the sales team.”[00:03:57] “Forecasting in a consumption model is an analytical exercise — not something you ask an account executive to guess.”[00:07:54] “In consumption, a customer can use it for a week, turn it off like a light switch, and move on.”[00:08:38] “PLG might start with $500 on a credit card and scale into a major enterprise deal.”[00:09:28] “Sometimes comp gives future credit for usage trajectory — but companies will claw it back if churn happens.”[00:10:33] “There's a lot of gold in this full episode — make sure you check it out.”Listen to the full conversation through the link below.https://revenue-builders.simplecast.com/episodes/driving-sales-behavior-with-effective-compensation-plans-with-jose-fernandezEnjoying the podcast?

This episode features Dr. Pinkston and Paul Herchman, Co-Executive Founder of Get Hair MD, discussing a holistic and evidence-based approach to hair loss. They highlight the widespread issue of hair loss in both men and women, exacerbated by factors like stress and rapid weight loss (including GLP-1s). Key Takeaways from Get Hair MD's Approach: Multifactorial Treatment: Hair loss is complex, requiring a comprehensive approach. Personalized Diagnosis: The process begins with an AI-driven photo documentation system to identify viable hairs, followed by a cheek swab for genetic analysis. This determines which topical products (like Minoxidil) a patient can effectively metabolize, avoiding wasted time and money. Treatment Modalities: Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT): A Class II device used to quickly stop hair loss and is often done in-office a couple of times a month initially. HairCell Technology: A new, exciting technology that uses electrical stimulation to signal cells to emit beneficial proteins like Clotho (longevity protein) and COAL17A (hair longevity protein) to condition the atrophic scalp. Topical & Oral Supplements: Customized topical sprays from compounding pharmacies, plus validated vitamins and specialized shampoos. Regenerative Products: Physicians may use extracellular matrix/regenerative products like exosomes, often applied using needle-free technology for comfort. Sustained Home Care: Patented dual-wavelength caps are used at home to maintain results and protect the investment. They also offer a protective, fashionable baseball cap that filters sun to SPF 50 while converting sun rays to a therapeutic wavelength. Early Intervention is Key: The most important message is to act early. Once a hair follicle dies, it cannot be reversed. Don't waste time and money on unproven methods. https://gethairmd.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of The Ross Simmonds Show, Ross delivers a candid message to founders, executives, and team leaders. If you're demanding high performance from your team but not modeling it yourself, the problem starts with you. Ross explores how poor leadership habits affect team culture and performance — and why success begins with self-awareness, accountability, and leading by example. If you're frustrated with team results, before looking outward, Ross encourages you to look in the mirror. He shares lessons from his own leadership journey and offers practical questions to help you evaluate your leadership habits. Key Takeaways and Insights: 1. Leaders must model what they expect. - You can't demand elite output while operating with average habits. - Culture is a reflection of leadership. If your organization is underperforming, the root may be your own inconsistencies. - High performance trickles down. Your team won't surpass the standard you set — raise the standard, and the team will follow. - Introspection before criticism. Ask yourself hard questions about your leadership style and consistency. - Show your team what preparation looks like. Demonstrate how you lead meetings, deliver presentations, and display urgency. 2. Growth requires investment. - Leaders must continually invest in themselves to lead their teams effectively. - Excellence spreads when it's consistently displayed through actions, not just words. —

Let's be honest,  public school wasn't designed for kids with ADHD. Too often, these kids are labeled, misunderstood, and pushed into systems that don't fit how their brains learn best. But what if the problem isn't your child, but the system itself? In this episode of The Soaring Child Podcast, host Dana Kay, ADHD health practitioner and founder of the ADHD Thrive Method for Kids speaks with Leslie Dernberger, founder of Aspire Education, mom of four, and one of the nation's leading experts in K–12 education for neurodiverse learners. Drawing on her legal background and over a decade of experience helping families, Leslie unpacks why traditional schooling often fails ADHD kids and what parents can do about it. From understanding homeschool laws and navigating deschooling, to structuring the day and busting common misconceptions, this episode is filled with practical guidance and encouragement. Whether you're curious about homeschooling, exploring hybrid options, or just want to better support your child's learning, this conversation will give you hope and actionable tools. Links Mentioned in the Show:▶ Aspire Education: https://www.aspireeducation.us/ ▶ Homeschool Legal Defense Association (HSLDA): https://hslda.org Key Takeaways: [00:00] Public school isn't built for many ADHD learners andwhy fit-the-mold systems backfire. [02:37] Meet Leslie Dirnberger (Aspire Education): mom of four, homeschool veteran, legal background, supports thousands of families. [04:23] The "catalyst event": what finally pushes parents to seek alternatives. [06:03] Spotting the signal: "the spark is gone" and nothing at school is fixing it. [07:16] First steps legally: understand your state's rules; public vs. private education; where homeschooling fits. [10:05] Deschooling 101: reset the parent first; museum/nature learning to reconnect. [13:38] Foundation step: define "a good education" as a family; ask kids what learning should look like. [15:24] Myth-busting socialization: why homeschoolers often get better real-world social practice. [18:30] Colleges love homeschoolers: time management, self-advocacy, executive function. [26:27] Standardized tests miss the mark, especially for ADHD,  focus on mastery instead. Memorable Moments: "The truth is, your child doesn't need to be fixed. They need an education that actually fits their brain." "There is a catalyst event that has occurred that creates a situation that the parents go, wait a second, let's take a step back here." "The spark has gone out, the light has gone out of their eyes and the parents know something's wrong." "The hardest part of homeschooling? Looking myself in the mirror and challenging my own beliefs." "What does a good education look like for your family and for your children?" "Nothing could be further from the truth — homeschoolers are often better socialized." "Colleges love homeschoolers because they know how to manage their time and advocate for themselves." "Accreditation is a game. It is absolutely garbage. It doesn't mean a thing." "Everything is geared towards standardized testing in government schools. And that's why they're in a box and they ram it through, which is terrible for ADHD kids." "Your children can own their own education and advocate for themselves at school." Dana Kay Resources:

If next year were a movie, what kind of film would it be? Action? Adventure? Redemption? A rom-com with questionable decisions and a killer soundtrack? Whatever it is — here's the truth: no magical hand is writing it for you. You get to take the damn pen. You're the writer, the director, and the lead. In this follow-up to The Hero's Journey, April hands you the director's chair for your own life. Too many leaders and entrepreneurs drift into another year by default — replaying the same story, following the same plot, repeating the same dialogue. But what if 2025 wasn't a sequel? What if you wrote something entirely new? In this episode, April challenges you to choose your genre, claim your pen, and direct a story that actually excites you. Because your life isn't a rerun — it's a production in progress. Key Takeaways 1️⃣ You Are the Director of Your Story No one else gets to decide the tone, the plot, or the outcome. You hold the pen. 2️⃣ Drift vs. Direction Most of us live other people's priorities — reacting instead of creating. 2025 doesn't have to be a rerun; it can be your reboot. 3️⃣ The Coaching Call that Sparked It During a group session, April asked: "If next year were a movie, what would it be?" William said The Greatest Showman — bold moves, bigger stages. Daniel said The Pursuit of Happyness — grit and purpose over glamour. Katrina said The Wizard of Oz — the journey home to her own power. Each one picked a story that matched their growth season. 4️⃣ The Plot Twist for You So, what's your movie? Action — courage to leap into what you've delayed. Redemption — rebuilding after loss or burnout. Release — letting go of control, perfectionism, or old identities. Rated R for real life — raw, unfiltered, fully alive. 5️⃣ April's Reminder You're not behind — you're just busy filming the wrong movie. If last year was Groundhog Day, make this year The Great Escape. If last year was Cast Away, make this one Homecoming.  Quotes "No producer is coming to save your script — you already hold the pen." "You're not behind; you're just stuck in the wrong movie." "If last year was a sequel, this year can be your reboot." "You don't need permission to start — just courage to claim the pen."  Challenge for Pivoters Take ten quiet minutes this week — no phone, no noise. Write the title of your 2025 movie. Ask yourself:

Goldman Sachs recently predicted that up to 300 million jobs could be displaced by AI by 2030, a staggering shift that is already creating overwhelm, exhaustion, and a deep sense of instability for millions of people. People are nervous and afraid, and who can blame them? But what if this moment of uncertainty is actually your chance to reclaim control of your life, your freedom, and your future? Today, I'm joined by my longtime friend Amber Vilhauer—marketing visionary, bestselling book launch strategist, founder of NGNG Enterprises, and one of the most grounded, service-oriented entrepreneurs I've ever met.

If you've ever been curious about period underwear but also kinda scared to try it… this is your episode. Today I'm chatting with Arielle Loupos, founder of FlowerGirl, and her story, her mission, and her product completely blew me away. Arielle creates non-toxic, beautifully designed period underwear  including the viral period thong and let me tell you… I was skeptical. Then I tried it, fell in love, messaged her immediately, and said: "You need to come on the podcast."  In this episode, we get super real. We talk about why traditional period care (tampons, pads, cups, discs) can cause problems, why so many women deal with cramps and PMS that aren't actually "normal," and how materials, toxins, and synthetic fibers impact our hormones more than we think. Arielle shares her journey from e-commerce to product creation, what it really takes to make functional, sexy, non-toxic underwear, and how she's disrupting a category that desperately needs it. We also dig into the misconceptions around period underwear - the "diaper feeling" myth, the fear of leaks, the cleaning process, and why so many women are shocked once they finally try a pair. And of course, I share my own story of trying the FlowerGirl thong on my heaviest day… and becoming immediately obsessed!  You've been running on empty long enough.
