In this episode, Tom Fox welcomes Dr. Dennis Cummins to discuss his latest book, Invitational Selling: The Human Connection Advantage. Dr. Cummins is a renowned expert in the field of invitational selling, with extensive experience presenting and selling from the stage globally. He discovered that prioritizing conversations and genuine connections over high-pressure sales tactics not only aligned with his values but also enhanced his effectiveness in sales. This led him to develop the concept of invitational selling, which emphasizes sharing one's gifts and talents to empower others and help them benefit from available services. Dr. Cummins encapsulated his philosophy in his new book, leveraging his global speaking engagements and interactions with various companies. In his book Dr. Cummins emphasizes the importance of building authentic connections in sales rather than relying on high-pressure tactics. He introduces the concept of ‘Invitational Selling,' which involves connecting with customers, conveying the benefits, and inviting them to engage, thereby fostering genuine relationships and enhancing sales effectiveness. This approach is applicable not only in sales but also in leadership and family dynamics, promoting engagement and collaboration through invitation rather than coercion. As customers are inundated with sales messages and wary due to information overload, prioritizing empathy and understanding separates successful sales professionals in a technology-driven world. Real-life examples, such as Lauren's bead bracelets, highlight that product value extends beyond materials to the emotional connections and meanings they hold for customers. Committed to giving back, he has pledged all proceeds from the book's initial launch to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Key highlights: Authentic connections in sales enhance effectiveness and drive sales growth. Invitational selling focuses on connecting, conveying, and converting to inspire buy-in from employees and foster collaboration. Maintaining a personal touch and understanding customer needs sets sales professionals apart in a technology-driven world. Balancing AI efficiency with personal elements is crucial to overcoming trust issues and fostering genuine connections. The true value of a product lies in the emotions, connections, and meanings it represents to individuals.

April has been World Wish Month, a time when Make-A-Wish Foundation shines a spotlight on the life-changing impact their wishes have for children facing critical illnesses. Manny Munoz discussed the impact with Dr. James Fahner, pediatric cancer specialist, and Founding Chairperson for Make-A-Wish America's National Medical Advisory Council. AND, Earth Day may be behind us, but the bigger question is what happens after the headlines and the coverage fades. Sara Espinoza, President and CEO of the National Environmental Education Foundation, joins Manny to expound on that. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of Mind Your Head, I sit down with Tainui Kaihau for a real conversation about what it takes to keep going when life gets heavy — and how you rebuild yourself on the other side. Tainui opens up about the darkest parts of his cancer journey: the fear, the mental battle, and the moments that tested him most. We talk about how he stayed mentally strong through it all, and how it shaped the mindset he lives by now — determination, perspective, and a drive to live life to the fullest and inspire others along the way. We also get into sobriety and what changed when he stopped numbing things, the simple habits that keep him steady, and what it's like learning to love and be loved while you're still healing. Tainui shares how he stays authentic with an online presence, deals with negative comments, protects his peace, and keeps grounded when the internet gets loud. With his fiancé now pregnant, we talk fatherhood — the kind of dad he wants to be, the home he wants to create, and the values he wants to live by going forward. And we dive into his 100km charity run for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, a cause close to his heart that supported him and his family during cancer — proof of what's possible when purpose is bigger than pain. Tainui is one of the most positive, uplifting humans I've had the pleasure of talking to, and that energy is infectious. If you need perspective, motivation, or a reason to keep showing up, this one will land.This episode is brought to you by True Protein. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SHOP NOW!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Don't miss out - hit FOLLOW or SUBSCRIBE to stay updated with our latest episodes!

Drawing on more than 35 years of experience across HR, executive leadership, and global workforce consulting, Dr. Davis and Dr. Laura explore why so many organizations struggle with inclusive guidance and low employee engagement, and how a strong mindset and trust-based leadership can be built. Dr. Davis shares insights from her upcoming book, Leading High Performance Teams for Dummies, which offers practical strategies for building excellent  teams in today's changing workplace.

Well, that's Henrietta's mother for you.  It's a story of generational trauma, scapegoats, parental alienation, the cult of family, perfectionism, no contact, child sexual abuse, the bee hive mentality, sibling rivalry, the golden child, authenticity, autonomy, secret motivations, arranged marriage, expectations, hypocrisy, control, respect, guilt, and gossip. *** CONTENT WARNING - This episode discusses child sex abuse by another child. *** If you want to be a guest on our survivor story podcast, please ⁠click here⁠ or send us an email at narcissistapocalypse@gmail.com PODCAST RECOMMENDATIONS: Perfect Prey With Dr. Christine Cocchiola | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click Here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ The Covert Narcissism Podcast | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click Here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Bitch is a Bad Word | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click Here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ When Dating Hurts Podcast | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click Here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ If you or someone you know are experiencing abuse, you are not alone. DomesticShelters.org offers an extensive library of articles and resources that can help you make sense of what you're experiencing, connect you with local resources and find ways to heal and move forward. Visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.domesticshelters.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to access this free resource.  If you need help moving due to domestic violence, Shelter Movers may be able to help you.

What happens when a satellite engineer's hands stop working, and how can creativity emerge from constraint?For Florrie de Havilland, a period of debilitating ill health  meant reimagining her entire career and discovering unexpected joy in the delicate art of calligraphy and the mechanical precision of letterpress printing.Having had a successful career in mechanical engineering, including testing satellites for space missions, Florrie's neurological condition – affecting her hands and arms – forced her to eventually reconsider her career path and find a new way to balance her energy. During a two-year recovery period, Florrie had turned to watercolour painting and calligraphy, finding that these artistic pursuits offered something her illness had taken away: control. The conversation reveals fascinating parallels between Florrie's engineering background and her current creative practice. The same precision and problem-solving mindset that helped her test rocket thrusters and solar panels now informs her approach to calligraphy and her operation of "Penelope," a 1.25-ton vintage printing press from 1960 that dominates her studio.Today, Florrie creates bespoke wedding stationery that tells each couple's unique story, and beyond the commercial aspects of her business she finds profound fulfilment in volunteering with the Make-A-Wish Foundation, creating materials for children's wish events.Perhaps most touching is Florrie's description of finding her tribe among fellow letterpress enthusiasts: "When you meet some letterpress friends it's fantastic because they're just as crazy as you are." Florrie's story reminds us that creativity isn't just about making beautiful things – it's about finding new paths forward when traditional ones become inaccessible, and discovering community in unexpected places.creativityfound.co.ukResearched, edited and produced by Claire Waite BrownMusic: Day Trips by Ketsa Undercover / Ketsa Creative Commons License Free Music Archive - Ketsa - Day TripsFind out more about the late summer writing retreat Affordably advertise on this podcast by emailing claire@creativityfound.co.uk, or book a call here.

What if one wish could change the course of a child's recovery? In this powerful episode, I sit down with Dr. Jen Pratt, a pediatrician, childhood cancer survivor, and Make-A-Wish recipient turned advocate. At just 11 years old, Jen was diagnosed with bone cancer—a life-changing moment that launched her into a world of hospitals, chemo, and uncertainty. But her journey also included something magical: a wish. Jen shares her deeply personal story of receiving a wish from the Make-A-Wish Foundation and how that experience not only helped her cope during treatment but also inspired her path into medicine. Now, working at the very hospital where she was once treated, Jen sees firsthand how a single wish can uplift not just a child, but an entire family. We dive into: Jen's cancer diagnosis and the emotional toll it took on her and her family Her unforgettable wish to meet Disney animators—and why it mattered so much The Wish Impact Study and the real data showing how hope affects healing The misconception that wishes are just for terminally ill kids (they're not!) How Make-A-Wish brings light to dark moments—and why it's more than just a “nice thing” Heartwarming stories from the hospital frontlines The powerful role of mental health in medical recovery Whether you're a parent, caregiver, or simply someone who believes in the magic of kindness, this episode is a reminder that hope truly heals.

Valerie David, also known as The Pink Hulk, is a three-time cancer survivor (non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, stage 2 breast cancer, and stage 4 metastatic breast cancer) who turned her journey of resilience into an award-winning one-woman show. Through humor, raw honesty, and advocacy, she inspires audiences worldwide—proving that even cancer won't stop her from taking center stage.Check out Valerie's show, The Pink Hulk here: https://pinkhulkplay.comKey Highlights:- Valerie trusted her inner voice when symptoms appeared, even when doctors initially dismissed them. If you are able to get second opinions, advocate for yourself, and listen to your gut, you'll find this to be useful in other parts of your own life.- Balancing intuition with fear over symptoms can be tricky, but Valerie advises: don't panic over nothing, don't choose to live in fear. Instead, stay proactive by communicating with your care team about any arising symptoms.About our guest:Valerie David is an actor, playwright, writer and editor. Her greatest accomplishment in life is being a three-time cancer survivor. She was diagnosed and treated for Stage III Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma in 1999, Stage II Breast Cancer in 2014 and 2015, and Stage IV Breast Cancer in 2018. As of April 2019, she has beaten cancer again! Valerie reactivated her superhero within, and exactly 5 months after receiving hormone treatment only in pill form–no surgery, no radiation, no chemotherapy, Valerie no longer has active disease. She has since kept up a full schedule of performances–nothing has stopped her. Valerie's inspirational solo show, The Pink Hulk, has been accepted into almost 50 different play festivals worldwide since its 2016 debut, won multiple awards and has been touring since its very first performance, impacting audiences with the show's universal message of hope and empowerment. She has performed in over 25 different cities and globally, including in England, Sweden, Iceland, and Finland. A graduate of the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, her credits include the Off-Broadway production of A Stoop on Orchard Street, Cookie in Rumors and Claudia Shear's Blown Sideways Through Life. Films: How I Became that Jewish Guy, which premiered at a November 2015 NYC Film Festival, and Bridges and Tunnels. Valerie volunteers as a motivational speaker at the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team in Training events and Make-A-Wish Foundation. As a marathon cyclist, she co-founded Cycle of Hope, which raises money for national and international cancer organizations through bike marathons. Her most recent biking event raised almost $5,000 for the American Cancer Society and the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.Key Moments:At 7 minutes 28 seconds “What is my choice? Is my choice going to live in fear every single day? Is it going to be well, we'll deal with it when it happens. So I think what I've learned from cancer is don't worry until there's something to worry about.”Disclaimer: All content and information provided in connection with Manta Cares is solely intended for informational and educational purposes only.

Too many real estate pros settle for “good enough,” believing the next level, more listings, higher commissions, true freedom, is out of reach.  The truth is: real estate success doesn't come from luck, it comes from clarity, confidence, and the courage to ask for what you want. Top producers aren't just winging it. They're intentional. They ask bold questions. They go after mentorship. They're clear on where they're headed and who can help them get there. You can get what you want in this business, but it starts with asking the right questions and being specific about what you're after.  Whether that's finding the right mentor, learning from someone who's built what you're trying to build, or getting access to resources that shortcut your learning curve. In this episode, I'm joined by award-winning author and entrepreneur Greg Reid. We dive into how to go after the life and business you want, and why you should never let someone's opinion become your limit.   A dream written down with a date becomes a goal. A goal broken down into steps becomes a plan. A plan backed by action makes your dreams come true. -Greg Reid   What You'll Learn in This Episode Leverage your strengths, manage your weaknesses We have to build our businesses around what we do best. How do we grow without letting weak spots hold us back? The difference between opinions and counsel Most agents get stuck taking advice from people who've never built what they're trying to build. How do we find counsel instead of opinions? The power of connections Strategic relationships can open doors to listings, partnerships, and life-changing growth. How do we network with purpose? Guest Bio For over 25 years, Greg has inspired millions of people to take personal responsibility to step into the potential of their greatness and, as such, his life of contribution has been recognized by government leaders, a foreign Princess, as well as luminaries in education, business, and industry.
