Let's explore the fascinating intersection of AI and customer insights with Terry Brock, a Hall of Fame speaker and AI expert. We uncover how AI tools like Perplexity can transform the way we gather and interpret customer sentiments from social media platforms. Terry shares his expertise on leveraging these platforms to capture real-time feedback and opinions. Discover how AI not only analyzes feedback but also helps in proactively gauging customer emotions and preferences, enhancing the sales process with data-driven insights. In another segment, we explore the role of large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT and Perplexity in business strategy and customer interaction. Terry and I discuss the value of using multiple AI platforms for a well-rounded perspective, much like corroborating sources in journalism.   

Ever wished you could zip back in time and whisper some much-needed advice into the ear of your past self? It could have saved so much time and heartache! As you can imagine, there have been many lessons I've learned over the past eight years since I started my coaching business, and today I'm sharing with you the top 8! This story begins back in 2017, after the birth of my daughter, when I made a promise to myself that I would have a business by the time my maternity leave was finished. Yep - building a business with a brand-new baby in tow and an active 3 year old tearing around the house! That was a challenge - and one I was determined to conquer. My aim was clear: craft a business that allowed me to break free from the corporate grind, enjoy time with my kids, travel whenever I wanted and make an impact by helping others. Even with 20 years of marketing and brand building behind me, it was not the easy path I had imagined! I found myself on the entrepreneurial rollercoaster and had my fair share of fails as well as some incredible wins. There's even a year when we took the kids out of school and went caravanning around Australia for 9 months, seeing the most remote and beautiful parts of the country - and my business grew while I was snorkelling and sipping wine at gorgeous vineyards. Looking back, I wish there were things I could have discovered sooner. I'm sharing just a snapshot of my top lessons with you here in this episode, in the hope that you don't have to live through some of the experiences I did to learn them! Here's a sneak peek into the gems we explore in this episode: Why is entrepreneurship a journey of personal development? I explore how becoming your own boss is a wake-up call to personal growth and self-discovery. What could you be doing wrong with your offer? Learn the vital lesson that a phenomenal service doesn't sell itself if no one wants it. How crucial is positioning yourself as an expert? Uncover why without clear expertise in a niche, you're missing out on potential clients who simply can't see you. Value – what are you really worth? I discuss how undervaluing your services impacts not only your income but also your client relationships. And finally, what's the truth about overnight success? Spoiler: success doesn't pop up overnight, so let's bust that myth and learn why patience really is a virtue. So if you're ready to skip a few steps on your own path and dig into lessons that could accelerate your journey, take a listen! Let me know which ones resonated with you most!

Dr. Laurel Mellin is a health psychologist who founded and developed emotional brain training (EBT). She is an associate clinical professor of family and community medicine and pediatrics at the University of California San Francisco. Dr. Mellin has authored papers on the science and efficacy of EBT and is a New York Times bestselling author of four books on the method. Stress and trauma—especially from early childhood—can create survival circuits in the brain, which drive coping mechanisms such as overworking, emotional withdrawal, and unhealthy habits like overeating or excessive perfectionism. Most people, particularly those in their 40s and 50s, often feel emotionally drained and disconnected because of stress. Dr. Laurel describes five levels of stress in the brain, from a calm, connected state (Level 1) to a stressed-out state (Level 5), where the emotional brain takes over. EBT helps shift individuals from a higher stress level to a more positive, calm state, where they can make better decisions.The emotional brain influences decision-making and relationships, and simply relying on logic and hard work isn't enough to address deep emotional needs. Emotional well-being requires addressing the emotional circuits that control our reactions and behaviors. The goal of EBT is to teach individuals how to rewire these circuits for better emotional regulation, so they can improve their mental health, have stronger relationships, and overall life satisfaction.EBT, as Dr Mellin says, helps in weight reducing and her idea with integrative approach—featuring small groups, app support, and telephone coaching—sets it apart from traditional psychotherapy.Let's see what is in our brains so we can live happier lives!Dr. Laurel Mellin is a health psychologist who founded and developed emotional brain training (EBT).

Burnout is preventable. It's within our control to take action and prioritize self-care.Dr. Nekeshia Hammond is a leadership development coach, mental wellness expert, and keynote motivational speaker who helps high performers navigate burnout, exhaustion, and resiliency. In this episode, she dives deep into the importance of self-care for maintaining mental, physical, and emotional well-being. It is important to recognize burnout and find personal ways to reset, it with the help of support. Jen and Dr. Nakeshia challenge the outdated "go, go, go" mentality and encourage us to embrace a more balanced approach to life, where self-care is not just an option, but a priority.Dr. Nekeshia explains that the ‘baby steps approach' is the only way to get lasting results. Women must overcome any guilt tied to self-care. If you're feeling burned out and overwhelmed, taking small, but intentional steps each day will lead to lasting change and help you rediscover your balance and well-being. All of which is crucial for business owners. 

Businesses suffer when their owners do not prioritize their health.Ellen Goldman, M.Ed., NBC-HWC, PCC, is a wellness coach, healthy lifestyle and weight loss coach, speaker, and author. She is passionate about serving others and helping them achieve their health and wellness goals.Ellen explains that the real challenge lies in behavior change. Many people attempt to overhaul their lifestyles, but this approach often leads to burnout and failure. The key is mindset and motivation, which serve as the foundation for lasting change.Ellen introduces her MAP framework—Mindset, Awareness, and Preparation—as the blueprint for sustainable health habits. The first step is shifting your mindset from "I don't have time for self-care" to "I make time for self-care."Ellen also explains success in weight loss differently. It is a result of correcting overall lifestyle imbalances—such as stress, sleep, and exercise—rather than simply restricting food intake.Start with small, manageable changes and embrace a mindset of long-term health; this will lead to both personal fulfillment and business success.Show notes:

Brian Thompson chats with Lauren Tilden, host of the Making Good podcast and a marketing coach dedicated to helping creative small business owners who want to get out of their own way and start making an impact. After 8 years in corporate marketing, Lauren left her corporate career and began her winding journey to owning and supporting small businesses. She offers insights into defining one's ideal customer, creating goal-oriented marketing plans, and staying consistent with your message. Episode Highlights Mission-driven businesses are motivated by more than money. Growing up, Lauren felt she had to choose between making a living and doing meaningful work. But once she entered the small business world, she realized she could achieve both purpose and profit by being intentional and putting her values first. “I always sort of felt like I had to choose between making money ... and doing something I cared about," Lauren said. “It wasn't really until I got into the small business space that I realized you can do both at the same time.” Get clear on your marketing goals. Impactful marketing starts with a well-defined goal. Lauren advised small business owners to pinpoint what they need from their marketing efforts, such as increasing brand awareness, generating sales, or expanding a specific client base. Knowing your goal can help you create a campaign that helps you achieve it. “The first place that most people overlook is to get really, really clear on what your goal is,” Lauren said. “Marketing can do so many different things for us. If I didn't know my goal, I could end up spending my time all wrong.” Don't let a niche box you in. Instead of solely focusing on servicing a niche, Lauren encouraged entrepreneurs to understand their ideal customer's motivations, challenges, and values. By getting clear on these psychological details, business owners can create messaging that resonates with target customers on a deeper level. “What unites the people that buy from me and that are part of my community are their psychographics and what they care about,” Lauren said. “I know my ideal customer super well.” Design a marketing plan that meets your time requirements. Small business owners are busy, which is why it's especially important to realistically assess the time you have available to dedicate to marketing. Lauren advised entrepreneurs to create achievable marketing plans they can follow consistently, even if it means starting slow and with just one or two platforms. “When you set yourself up for a plan you can't actually stick to given your bandwidth, that is a recipe … for feeling bad about yourself and your ability to follow through,” Lauren said. “There is no upside to biting off more than you can chew, so create a marketing plan based on the time you have available each week.” Resources + Links Making Good Podcast with Lauren Tilden Lauren Tilden: Website, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn Brian Thompson Financial: Website, Newsletter, Podcast Follow Brian Thompson Online: Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, X, Forbes About Brian and the Mission Driven Business Podcast Brian Thompson, JD/CFP, is a tax attorney and Certified Financial Planner® who specializes in providing comprehensive financial planning to LGBTQ+ entrepreneurs who run mission-driven businesses.
