Send Krystal a Text Message.Want to know how I've created over 1,500 podcast episodes since 2018? The secret lies in mastering solo content creation—a skill that's widely underestimated but extraordinarily powerful when done right.From 2020 to 2023, I produced a daily five-minute podcast called The Potty Report, resulting in more than 900 episodes. This wasn't because I felt motivated every day—quite the opposite. Many mornings, I didn't want to record at all. Yet I committed to showing up consistently for my audience, who came to expect and value those daily doses of insight. Some listened the moment episodes dropped at midnight; others binged a week's worth every Friday. The consistency built trust that transcended any individual episode's content.The foundation of successful solo content is learning to interview yourself effectively. This approach forces you to cut through the noise and deliver immediate value. When you understand your audience deeply, you can speak directly to their challenges and desires in a way that makes them feel seen. The most successful creators I've worked with—and I've collaborated with thousands—share this ability to make their audience think, "they get me, they see me, they understand what I'm struggling with." Even perceived mistakes become connection points, like when roosters crowed loudly in the background of my recordings at my parents' farm. What I considered embarrassing, my audience found endearing.Starting your solo content journey doesn't need to be complicated. Begin by identifying your strategic content pillars—those non-negotiable elements you commit to delivering consistently. For my team, it's Tuesday podcasts, Thursday YouTube videos, and Friday newsletters. Everything else can flex, but these pillars remain steady. Want to learn the systems that have helped me stay consistent since 2018? Check out our brand new Consistent Creators Club, designed specifically to help you show up confidently and consistently in your content journey. Remember, we all have to start somewhere—what matters is that you keep showing up.If you've wondered why nothing is working in your business in 2025, you need a clear strategy.

Episode #998 What if that argument about the dishes isn't really about the dishes? Most guys fall into the same trap during conflict—we react. We defend ourselves, make excuses, try to explain things, or just shut down completely. I've been there, and I used to think being “right” would solve everything. It didn't. It just made the fights last longer and left us both feeling more disconnected. In this episode, I'm bringing back a short but powerful conversation that can shift everything. I walk you through how I stopped blowing up arguments in my marriage and started turning those heated moments into connection. We dive into a simple technique I used when things were at their worst—counting to 10. Sounds basic, right? But that pause gave me just enough space to stop reacting and start listening. From there, I used what we call the Hidden Motives Technique to figure out what my wife was really trying to say underneath the complaints. In this revisit, I'll show you how to shift the dynamic, so you're not just avoiding a blowup—you're actually building more trust and intimacy. When your wife feels seen and heard, everything changes—including how she responds to you. This isn't about walking on eggshells. It's about learning to lead better during conflict. And it works.

The art of listening might be the most undervalued skill in our professional toolkit. In this enlightening conversation with executive coach Tim Hast, author of "Powerful Listening, Powerful Influence," we explore why truly hearing others is so challenging yet so essential.Tim shares his journey from trauma counselor to executive coach, discovering that regardless of industry or position, many leaders receive feedback that they simply don't listen well enough. As host Greg Hamlin reveals his own surprising 360-review feedback about his listening skills, we learn that perceiving ourselves as good listeners and actually making others feel heard are entirely different matters.Why do we struggle to listen effectively? Tim introduces us to the concept of HALT (Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired) – conditions that severely impair our ability to focus on others. Even more fundamentally, our natural tendency to make everything about ourselves creates a significant barrier. From childhood, we're conditioned to believe the world revolves around us, making genuine listening a conscious choice rather than our default setting.The heart of the episode revolves around Tim's transformative "R-listening" approach – Active, Reflective, Empathic listening – and his four practical steps anyone can implement immediately: listen patiently, with your body, with your voice, and with your mind. These techniques have the power to revolutionize both professional relationships and personal connections alike.For workers' compensation professionals dealing daily with individuals experiencing trauma, pain, and frustration, these listening skills aren't just nice-to-have – they're essential for building trust, resolving complex cases, and truly serving claimants. The parallels between effective claims handling and powerful listening are unmistakable.Whether you're managing a department, working directly with injured workers, or simply trying to improve your relationships, this episode offers practical wisdom that can be implemented today. As Tim reminds us, when we truly listen, we give others the gift of feeling understood – perhaps the most powerful influence we can have.Season 9 is brought to you by Berkley Industrial Comp.

Join us as we explore the vital trait of eagerness, alacrity, or "zerizut," and its impact on both spiritual and everyday life. We'll discuss how eagerness can propel us towards fulfilling mitzvahs and serving Hashem effectively, using examples like Moshe and Pinchas to highlight the importance of avoiding negative influences. We'll also examine the role of repentance, emphasizing the need for patience and caution in our actions to achieve true perfection. Striking a balance between quick action and careful consideration is key, as too much haste can lead to mishaps both spiritually and practically.In our conversation, we contrast the traits of eagerness and laziness, recognizing eagerness as a powerful tool for achieving great things efficiently, while understanding how laziness can sometimes be strategically employed to avoid undesirable actions.

Get ready for a dose of inspiration, one action you can implement and quotable quotes that will stick with you long after the episode ends!   In this episode of Quick Fire Friday, host Rob Cameron interviews Trang Nova, a renowned speaker and speaking coach, who shares her inspiring journey from physiotherapy to empowering entrepreneurs and business owners to harness the power of effective communication. Trang discusses common challenges her clients face—including public speaking anxiety, team leadership, and building personal brands—and emphasizes that 93% of a message's impact lies in its delivery rather than just words. She outlines her approach to mindset, articulation, and vocal presence, and offers compelling case studies of clients who have achieved remarkable business growth through improved speaking skills. Trang also shares a practical tip: record and review your own speaking to uncover opportunities for impactful improvement. Key Takeaways for Small Business Owners: Your Voice Is a Business Asset: Effective communication isn't just a soft skill—it directly impacts your ability to lead, sell, and influence. Learning to use your voice with clarity and confidence can elevate your brand and business. 93% of Communication Is Non-Verbal: Trang emphasizes that how you say something—your tone, pace, body language, and energy—has a far greater impact than the words themselves. Delivery drives trust, authority, and connection. Mindset Shapes Your Message: Many entrepreneurs struggle with self-doubt and imposter syndrome. Building the confidence to be seen and heard is foundational to becoming a compelling communicator and leader. Our hero crafts outstanding reviews following the experience of listening to our special guests. Are you the one we've been waiting for? Tailor Your Speaking Style: There's no one-size-fits-all solution. Trang works with clients individually to help them refine their unique speaking style—whether that means slowing down, speaking up, or pausing more intentionally. Leadership Requires Clear Communication: Business owners who lead small teams must learn to communicate with a balance of warmth and authority. Mastering hard conversations and motivational messaging is crucial for team growth. Practice with Purpose: Trang recommends a simple but powerful exercise: record a 2-minute video of yourself speaking and review it after a day. This builds self-awareness and helps you identify key areas to improve delivery and presence.   One action small business owners can take: According to Trang Nova, one action a small business owner should take is to record a 2-minute video of themselves speaking—whether introducing their business or sharing a story — and watch it the next day to identify areas for improving clarity, confidence, and delivery.
