Live events should be the fastest way to create customers, business builders, and momentum.So why do so many events feel inspiring in the room…but fall completely flat when it comes to conversion?In this episode, Emily breaks down the real reasons live events don't convert—and it has nothing to do with energy, excitement, or how “motivated” your audience feels when they leave.You'll learn: • Why inspiration without structure creates emotional highs—but no action • The biggest mistake most leaders make when they expect events to “sell for them” • How unclear messaging quietly kills momentum after the event ends • The difference between connection and conversion (and why you need both) • What must be in place before, during, and after an event for people to actually say yesIf you've ever hosted or attended a live event that felt powerful—but didn't translate into sign-ups, sales, or growth—this episode will change how you think about events forever.This isn't about hype.It's about systems, clarity, and leadership.Press play if you're ready to turn live experiences into real results.Enjoy,XOXO Emily Want to ask me a question about something you're learning here on the podcast?

A key corner of the credit market is experiencing sustained and even accelerated selling at the end of January 2026. What we're talking about is historically one of the most economically sensitive segments, a growing caution about the climate ahead. And it's not the only one. From cryptocurrencies to the inability of the AI bubble to get going, the cracks continue to widen rather than fade away like everyone said they were going to. Eurodollar University's conversation w/Steve Van Metre----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------If you're a serious investor and want to capitalize on what the monetary system is signaling right now, plus deep discussions about what truly is the greatest threat we all face, join me and Brent, plus Hugh Hendry, George Gammon, Steve Van Metre, and Mike Green at Eurodollar University's very first Live Event, President's Day Weekend, February 2026.

#766 What happens when a CRO expert ditches slides, skips keynotes, and bets big on human connection in a post-Zoom world? In this episode, host Brien Gearin welcomes back longtime friend and fellow Cincinnati native Sahil Patel, CEO of Spiralyze, for a conversation that goes beyond CRO and A/B testing.

Has the rally in silver gone so far now that the metal's price action is actually behaving like a meme stock? Or is there something more fundamental and deeply disturbing behind what precious metals are doing? Maybe we should consider how it isn't a loss of faith in the dollar as so many people wrongly claim which is propelling both gold and silver right now, what if it is the growing mistrust in how the entire world works and fits together. Or used to. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis---------------------------------------------------------If you're a serious investor and want to capitalize on what the monetary system is signaling right now, plus deep discussions about what truly is the greatest threat we all face, join me and Brent, plus Hugh Hendry, George Gammon, Steve Van Metre, and Mike Green at Eurodollar University's very first Live Event, President's Day Weekend, February 2026.

In today's episode, I sit down with IFBB Pro Naomi Jordan, a registered dental hygienist who found bodybuilding as both a creative outlet and a space for personal growth. She began training in the gym around 2013, stepped on stage for the first time in 2022, and earned her Pro card in 2023 at just her third show. Naomi shares her journey of navigating uncertainty, listening to her inner voice, and balancing faith, career, and competing at a high level.   We talk about the fear of getting started, evolving your relationship with the sport, and how to decide whether continuing to compete aligns with your life and values. Naomi also opens up about competing after multiple knee surgeries, finding the right coach, and staying grounded in seasons of transition.   TOPICS COVERED -Navigating uncertainty and seasons of transition -Listening to your inner voice and aligning choices with your goals -Competing against yourself, not others -Faith, spiritual gifts, and identity outside the sport -Balancing a demanding career with bodybuilding -Dental health and life as a hygienist -Using bodybuilding as a creative outlet   CONNECT WITH CELESTE: Website: http://www.celestial.fit Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/celestial_fit/ All Links: http://www.celestial.fit/links.html   CONNECT WITH NAOMI:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/naomii.jordann/   TIME STAMPS 1:00 introduction 2:45 competing against yourself 4:55 from soccer to bodybuilding 9:45 red flags and finding the right coach 12:41 multiple knee surgeries 17:29 evolving relationship with competing 20:30 being a woman of faith 22:30 3rd place at her Pro debut 31:12 feedback from Pro debut 35:30 internal motivation versus identity 41:28 being a dental hygienist 56:25 balancing work on competing 60:00 spiritual gifts 66:12 bodybuilding as a creative outlet 73:22 advice for competitors   CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE FREE FOOD RELATIONSHIP COACHING SERIES   CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE FREE POST SHOW BLUES COACHING SERIES   LEARN MORE AND APPLY FOR MY 5 WEEK FOOD RELATIONSHIP HEALING & DISCOVERY COACHING PROGRAM   FOR OTHER FREE RESOURCES, LIVE EVENTS, AND WAYS TO WORK WITH CELESTE CLICK HERE

One of BlackRock's private credit funds has just resurrected the cockroach concerns over debt woes in the space. By announcing that it will have to write down 19% of its net asset value, the fund also discloses more areas of cockroach concerns beyond those we had already become aware of. While at the same time, further reminding everyone how everything that people were worried about before they need to keep worrying about and then some. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------EDU LIVE PRESIDENT'S DAY FEBRUARY 2026If you're a serious investor and want to capitalize on what the monetary system is signaling right now, plus deep discussions about what truly is the greatest threat we all face, join me and Brent, plus Hugh Hendry, George Gammon, Steve Van Metre, and Mike Green at Eurodollar University's very first Live Event, President's Day Weekend February 2026.

Pull up a chair as we head to "America's Farm to Fork Capital," Sacramento, for a special in-person episode with James Rasmussen, VP of Arena Programming at Golden 1 Center. Our hosts sit down with James in the Sacramento Kings podcast studio and dig into what makes the city special and things to look forward to for those coming to the Event & Venue Marketing Conference in June. Fresh off a venue tour before recording, we talk about the many features of the arena that make it stand out – including being 100% solar powered and the importance of the solar panels on the roof, giant window walls that can open to cool the venue with the delta breeze, sourcing 90% of their food and beverage from within 150 miles, LEED Platinum Certification, and so much more. We talk through the building's evolution as it approaches its 10th anniversary and their emphasis on designing for the future. We chat through James' career history from working as a security guard at Bob Dylan's house while in college at Pepperdine University to his entry into live events with Arena Network, and many shows and tours he worked on along the way. There's nothing like recording these in-person and you're sure to enjoy this special episode live from halls of Golden 1 Center.James Rasmussen: LinkedIn | EmailGolden 1 Center: Facebook | Instagram | X/Twitter ––––––ADVENTURES IN VENUELANDFollow on Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, or X/TwitterLearn more about Event & Venue Marketing ConferenceMeet our team:Paul Hooper | Co-host, Booking, Branding & MarketingDave Redelberger | Co-host & Guest ResearchMegan Ebeck | Marketing, Design & Digital AdvertisingSamantha Marker | Marketing, Copywriting & PublicityCamille Faulkner | Audio Editing & MixingHave a suggestion for a guest or bonus episode?

Billionaire investor Ray Dalio is warning we shouldn't be focused on trade wars, instead the real concern is capital wars. In those, Dalio says there will be a reduced appetite for owning US government debt or any US assets. Maybe even including American stocks. The comments were made in the context of recent geopolitical flashpoints in Venezuela and Greenland. As always, there's a lot of noise surrounding this kind of topic, but what does the evidence say?Eurodollar University's conversation w/Steve Van Metre---------------------------------------------------------If you're a serious investor and want to capitalize on what the monetary system is signaling right now, plus deep discussions about what truly is the greatest threat we all face, join me and Brent, plus Hugh Hendry, George Gammon, Steve Van Metre, and Mike Green at Eurodollar University's very first Live Event, President's Day Weekend, February 2026.

Most agency owners don't struggle because they lack effort. They struggle because they lack a system that scales with them. Hosted by Daniel Metcalf with Mike Stromsoe, this episode breaks down the UPP Onyx Agency Operating System and explains why growth stalls when operations, accountability, and leadership aren't aligned. Together, they unpack the real structure behind consistent production, team ownership, and predictable profitability inside modern insurance agencies. You'll learn how to move from reactive management to operational control, why clarity beats hustle at every stage of growth, and how a defined operating system creates freedom without sacrificing performance. This conversation gives you a practical framework to simplify decisions, strengthen leadership, and build an agency that runs without constant firefighting. Highlights: Why most agencies plateau when growth outpaces structure, and how an operating system restores control. How clarity in roles and expectations eliminates friction and raises team accountability. Why leadership breakdowns usually show up as operational problems first. How to stop managing personalities and start managing processes. What it takes to build consistency without becoming the bottleneck. How systems create freedom instead of bureaucracy when built correctly.

The Japanese government bond market suffered a major meltdown this week that has shaken up a lot of people as they try to figure out what's going on over there and how it might impact more than just government bonds as a class. One of the key factors that has emerged, however, is just how little selling it took to create these massive price swings. That has enormously profound implications.  Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------EDU LIVE PRESIDENT'S DAY FEBRUARY 2026If you're a serious investor and want to capitalize on what the monetary system is signaling right now, plus deep discussions about what truly is the greatest threat we all face, join me and Brent, plus Hugh Hendry, George Gammon, Steve Van Metre, and Mike Green at Eurodollar University's very first Live Event, President's Day Weekend February 2026.

In today's episode, I sit down with IFBB Pro Sandy Arave, a 55-year-old high school counselor whose path to bodybuilding success is anything but conventional. Sandy began competing in 2022 and earned her Pro card at North Americans in 2024. In 2025, she made her Pro debut and went on to win two Pro shows in the 55+ categories.   Before bodybuilding, Sandy lived a very different competitive life as a barrel racer, competing at professional rodeos. Her journey into the sport came alongside navigating grief, health challenges, and major life transitions. This conversation is an honest look at resilience, purpose, and why chasing growth matters more than chasing a card.   TOPICS COVERED -Living and competing through grief and trauma -Transitioning from competitive barrel racing to bodybuilding -Building and leaning on a strong support system -Lessons learned through failure and setbacks -Being a role model at any age -Prioritizing health while pursuing big goals   CONNECT WITH CELESTE: Website: http://www.celestial.fit Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/celestial_fit/ All Links: http://www.celestial.fit/links.html   CONNECT WITH SANDY:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sandytaylorarave_ifbbpro/   TIME STAMPS 1:00 introduction 3:14 having a competitive nature 5:53 life before competing 13:13 balance work life and competing 16:56 competing through grief 26:41 how grief has impacted her life 35:16 taking chances 43:10 advice for balancing life and competing 52:35 making her Pro debut 59:30 dealing with thyroid issues 66:38 prioritizing health 73:05 advice for competitors   CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE FREE FOOD RELATIONSHIP COACHING SERIES   CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE FREE POST SHOW BLUES COACHING SERIES   LEARN MORE AND APPLY FOR MY 5 WEEK FOOD RELATIONSHIP HEALING & DISCOVERY COACHING PROGRAM   FOR OTHER FREE RESOURCES, LIVE EVENTS, AND WAYS TO WORK WITH CELESTE CLICK HERE

In this episode, Coach Joe breaks down a simple truth most gym owners forget: discounting doesn't fix a sales problem—explaining value does. You'll learn how to value stack your core offer (without lowering price), and how to “plus-one” your sales process so you stop leaving money on the table—using paid-in-full options, referrals at the point of sale, and a clear high-ticket pathway.If you're getting leads but struggling with conversions, this is your playbook to increase close rate, retention, and revenue—without becoming the cheapest gym in town.Why discounting is dangerous: it trains prospects to wait and attracts price-shoppers instead of “lifers.”What “value stacking” actually means: increase real + perceived value without touching price.Easy value-stack adds that boost closes: onboarding roadmap, goal reviews, bi-weekly coach check-ins, accountability touchpoints, assessments/scans, priority scheduling, community/identity perks, and simple guarantees.The math of discounting: even “just $50 off” becomes thousands lost per client over long retention.Sell certainty, not sessions: clients aren't buying workouts—they're buying leadership, accountability, and results.When discounts do make sense: calculated, intentional offers (member pre-sales, referrals, special groups, rare promos like Black Friday)—not permanent rate reductions.Plus-one your sales process (the money multipliers):Paid-in-full/VIP option presented as “removes friction + locks in results”Ask for the referral at the point of sale (when belief and excitement are highest)Introduce the high-ticket pathway early so premium options don't feel like a surpriseCommon sales mistakes to avoid: too many pricing options, discounting instead of explaining, treating it like a transaction (not mentorship), waiting too long to ask for referrals, and avoiding premium offers out of fear.Action challenge: go 30 days without discounts, rewrite your value script, and build a simple SOP with a built-in plus-one step.Attend One of our LIVE Events: https://businessofstrength.com/attendSupport Our Sponsors: TurnKey Coachhttps://turnkey.coach/business-of-strength/Ignite Entrepreneurs https://ignite-entrepreneurs.com Naamly https://www.naamly.com/

Macy's is the latest retailer to admit to struggling in the current economic climate, closing several of what it calls fulfillment centers, basically warehouse facilities in Connecticut and Oklahoma and shedding thousands of those jobs. That comes in addition to even more store closings across the country. Why? Because only the wealthy are spending so the company wants to focus as much as possible on that segment. Macy's is not alone.  EDU LIVE PRESIDENT'S DAY FEBRUARY 2026If you're a serious investor and want to capitalize on what the monetary system is signaling right now, plus deep discussions about what truly is the greatest threat we all face, join me, Hugh Hendry, George Gammon, Steve Van Metre, Brent Johnson, Mike Green at Eurodollar University's very first Live Event, President's Day Weekend February 2026. To reserve your spot just go here but you better hurry, there aren't many spots left:https://eurodollar-university.com/event-home-pageEurodollar University's Money & Macro AnalysisDelta Declines on Tepid Forecast as Geopolitics Weigh on Travelhttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-01-13/delta-places-major-boeing-order-as-earnings-support-travel-boomMacy's plans to close stores in 12 states—see if your city is listedhttps://www.msn.com/en-us/foodanddrink/foodnews/macy-s-plans-to-close-stores-in-12-states-see-if-your-city-is-listed/ar-AA1UirgL?cvid=696b13e01f884a7ab6d68a7ead48018f&ocid=BHEA000Macy's to close Oklahoma fulfillment centerhttps://www.supplychaindive.com/news/macys-to-close-tulsa-oklahoma-fulfillment-center-bold-new-chapter/809289/Macy's to lay off nearly 1,000 at Connecticut fulfillment centerhttps://www.retaildive.com/news/macys-layoffs-cheshire-connecticut-fulfillment-center/809837/https://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

The Japanese yen keeps tumbling and as it does it is tanking the bond market over there. What we have is the first case of a currency value setting interest rates, with, of course, the Bank of Japan helplessly caught in the middle. That helplessness is reinforced by the fact Japan's currency is being closely paralleled by South Korea's and others across Asia. The tumbling won and yen have led to government calls for stringent action, including from Treasury Secretary Bessent today.Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------EDU LIVE PRESIDENT'S DAY FEBRUARY 2026If you're a serious investor and want to capitalize on what the monetary system is signaling right now, plus deep discussions about what truly is the greatest threat we all face, join me, Hugh Hendry, George Gammon, Steve Van Metre, Brent Johnson, Mike Green at Eurodollar University's very first Live Event, President's Day Weekend February 2026. To reserve your spot just go here but you better hurry, there aren't many spots left:https://eurodollar-university.com/event-home-page---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Statement from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome H.

JP Morgan missed on its earnings after failing to sell as many bonds as it was expecting for its customers. At the same time, Jamie Dimon, the bank's CEO, he of cockroach fame, was forced to acknowledge how the labor market had softened before then going on to describe Goldilocks anyway. This is something that has come up in a couple of other sources already, not Goldilocks though that is the Fed's official position, too. No, bond issuance is looking weak heading into 2026, another one of those key credit cycle signs.  Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------EDU LIVE PRESIDENT'S DAY FEBRUARY 2026If you're a serious investor and want to capitalize on what the monetary system is signaling right now, plus deep discussions about what truly is the greatest threat we all face, join me, Hugh Hendry, George Gammon, Steve Van Metre, Brent Johnson, Mike Green at Eurodollar University's very first Live Event, President's Day Weekend February 2026. To reserve your spot just go here but you better hurry, there aren't many spots left:https://eurodollar-university.com/event-home-page---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------JPM Q4 2025https://www.jpmorganchase.com/content/dam/jpmc/jpmorgan-chase-and-co/investor-relations/documents/quarterly-earnings/2025/4th-quarter/d868c7ef-1670-465d-ba75-c2b36ddbcc6b.pdfJPM Q4 2024 https://www.jpmorganchase.com/content/dam/jpmc/jpmorgan-chase-and-co/investor-relations/documents/quarterly-earnings/2024/4th-quarter/36b3c0a4-3ecd-422e-8167-0a31372f3438.pdfA Growing Number of Bonds Edge Closer to Junk Statushttps://www.tradealgo.com/news/a-growing-number-of-bonds-edge-closer-to-junk-statushttps://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

Call it GSE QE. The same day it was reported US housing construction fell to the lowest since 2020, the Trump administration announced it was going to direct the housing GSEs, Fannie mae and Freddie Mac, to buy $200 billion in mortgage securities. The idea is that those purchases will reduce mortgage borrowing costs and offer some aid to struggling households who might then consider buying a house previously out of their reach.  Eurodollar University's conversation w/Steve Van Metre---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.

Training and leadership are still the two biggest constraints holding independent insurance agencies back. In this episode, I sit down with Justin Goodman to talk about how agencies can finally solve both without burning out owners or losing great people to competitors. Justin shares the real story behind Total CSR and why daily, practical training beats one-time education every single time. We talk about how agencies can recruit better, train faster, and build confidence on the front lines using structured learning paths, micro learning, and smart technology. Justin also opens up about Project 55 and why mental health support inside the insurance industry matters more than ever. If you want to build a stronger team, reduce E&O risk, and create a culture where people grow and stay, this conversation gives you a clear path forward. Highlights: How agencies can turn daily training into a competitive advantage instead of a burden. Why micro learning helps team members retain coverage knowledge long term. How to recruit and assess talent before hiring mistakes become expensive. Why confidence without competence creates hidden E&O risk. How AI tools can support coverage conversations without replacing human judgment. Why mental health support is becoming a leadership responsibility inside agencies. About Justin Goodman: Justin Goodman brings over 20 years of insurance industry expertise as a third-generation professional in the field. By the age of 29, he was recognized as one of the top five construction insurance experts nationwide by Risk and Insurance Magazine. As CEO and co-founder of Total CSR, he has developed training programs that have reached more than 70,000 customer service representatives, account managers, and producers across the United States.

Blue Owl, a name we've gotten to know for all the wrong reasons, has been forced to come clean after getting sued by pretty much every class action securities lawyer in America, not only into admitting there was a wave of withdrawals but also promising to accommodate them over and above what it normally would. Not only does that further confirm the First stage of the credit cycle reverse, it actually sets up the second stage. In this video, we're going to cover where everything in the credit cycle stands and and more importantly what it all means. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis------------------------------------------------------------------------------EDU LIVE PRESIDENT'S DAY FEBRUARY 2026If you're a serious investor and want to capitalize on what the monetary system is signaling right now, plus deep discussions about what truly is the greatest threat we all face, join me, Hugh Hendry, George Gammon, Steve Van Metre, Brent Johnson, Mike Green at Eurodollar University's very first Live Event, President's Day Weekend February 2026. To reserve your spot just go here but you better hurry, there aren't many spots left:https://eurodollar-university.com/event-home-page---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Bloomberg Publicly Traded Private-Credit Funds Set for Worst Year Since 2020https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-12-29/publicly-traded-private-credit-funds-set-for-worst-year-since-2020Bloomberg Blue Owl BDC Allows 17% Redemptions as Investors Storm Exithttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-01-07/blue-owl-bdc-allows-for-17-redemptions-as-investors-storm-exithttps://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

This is simply insane – new car sales among American households making $75k or less have crashed by 30% since 2019. Car prices soared. Incomes didn't. They can't afford a new car. But it's not just the lowest incomes. Those making between $75k and $150k have bought 7% fewer cars than in 2019. This is a lot more than the K-shaped economy and to call it an affordability crisis seriously understates the problem. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis------------------------------------------------------------------------------EDU LIVE PRESIDENT'S DAY FEBRUARY 2026If you're a serious investor and want to capitalize on what the monetary system is signaling right now, plus deep discussions about what truly is the greatest threat we all face, join me, Hugh Hendry, George Gammon, Steve Van Metre, Brent Johnson, Mike Green at Eurodollar University's very first Live Event, President's Day Weekend February 2026. To reserve your spot just go here but you better hurry, there aren't many spots left:https://eurodollar-university.com/event-home-page---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Fox Business Fed Governor Stephen Miran says more than 100 basis points in rate cuts justified this yearhttps://www.foxbusiness.com/media/fed-governor-stephen-miran-says-more-than-100-basis-points-cuts-justified-yearBloomberg Slowing Auto Sales Stoke Concern Over Near-Record Car Priceshttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-01-05/us-auto-sales-poised-to-slip-as-middle-class-buyers-retreathttps://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

There was an explosion, a record spike – and it's not even close - in lending by European banks to European shadow banks in October and November. This spike in European bank lending wasn't some newfound enthusiasm to take on risks. It was emergency lending, a shadow bank shadow bailout which was every bit the other side of the US$ repo tightness I've been telling you about. This surge in shadow bank borrowing in euros shows how widespread and global funding pressure has already been.  Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis------------------------------------------------------------------------------EDU LIVE PRESIDENT'S DAY FEBRUARY 2026If you're a serious investor and want to capitalize on what the monetary system is signaling right now, plus deep discussions about what truly is the greatest threat we all face, join me, Hugh Hendry, George Gammon, Steve Van Metre, Brent Johnson, Mike Green at Eurodollar University's very first Live Event, President's Day Weekend February 2026. To reserve your spot just go here but you better hurry, there aren't many spots left:https://eurodollar-university.com/event-home-page---------------------------------------------------------------------------------The Banker Explainer: Why the IMF fears contagion from lenders' shadow bank exposurehttps://www.thebanker.com/content/0ec3d3f5-62bc-4aa1-8202-9cccb6ebc2a3Bloomberg Deutsche Bank Leads EU Lenders' Exposure to Shadow Bankshttps://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-12-11/deutsche-bank-most-exposed-in-europe-to-shadow-banks-ubs-sayshttps://www.eurodollar.universityTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDU

The Fed is going to need some more not-QE and fast. We've got the year-end surge in repo borrowing at its window that is already way more than expected. At the same time, front end Treasury bill yields tumble in what is looking more like collateral scarcity along the lines of repo fails. Plus, the rest of the yield curve spent the entire fourth quarter – doing nothing. Literally nothing - and that's huge. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro Analysis---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------What if your gold could actually pay you every month… in MORE gold?That's exactly what Monetary Metals does.
