What if the hardest seasons of your life weren't meant to break you… but to build you into the woman God designed you to be? In this episode, Brandi sits down with Angela Aja, author, coach, and survivor turned spiritual powerhouse for one of the most honest, purpose-filled conversations yet. They dive deep into what it means to rise from the ashes, to heal from what tried to destroy you, and to find your God-given identity in the middle of your mess. Angela opens up about her own journey through loss, reinvention, and rediscovering her worth after starting over. Together, she and Brandi talk about how to turn your pain into purpose, how to quiet the noise of comparison, and how to walk boldly in your divine calling even when fear tries to keep you small. This isn't surface-level motivation, it's a wake-up call for the woman who is ready to stop waiting for permission and start walking in the purpose God already placed inside her! Grab your coffee (or your journal), and lean in. This conversation will remind you who you are, whose you are, and that it's never too late to soar.

How do you go from hearing a quiet tug on your heart to building a thriving microschool in only four months? In this episode, I sit down with Lauren Talbot—former accountant, middle school math teacher, and now the founder of The Anchor Learning Center in Louisiana. From her one-stoplight town, Lauren followed God's unmistakable call to leave public education and step into something completely new: creating a homeschool hybrid microschool. Lauren shares how she describes her journey as “weaving the tapestry of my calling and destiny”—a beautiful, faith-filled story that began the day she buckled her seatbelt, drove away from her classroom, and received a life-changing phone call that confirmed her next steps. Today, just four months later, she and her mom are serving 30 students alongside student interns, bringing her vision to life and transforming her community. Lauren is also a proud member of our Microschool Masterminds community—a supportive network of founders who, like her, are guided step-by-step through building, growing, and sustaining their microschools and homeschool hybrids. In this episode, you'll also hear how the Mastermind has helped Lauren find encouragement, strategies, and clarity as she stepped into leadership. If you've ever wondered… Could I really build a microschool from scratch—even in a small town? How do I follow God's call when it feels risky or “taboo”? Where do I find a community of people who understand this journey? …then this story will inspire and empower you. ✨ Press play to hear Lauren's powerful testimony of surrender, faith, and courage—and discover how Microschool Masterminds can help you weave the tapestry of your own calling.  Starting a microschool comes with incredible joy—but it also comes with the pressure of making everyone happy: parents, students, even your staff. If you've ever felt the weight of parent expectations on your shoulders, this episode is for you. In today's conversation, I'm pulling back the curtain on how new founders can manage parent pressure without burning out. We'll talk about: ✨ Why boundaries are essential for your sanity and your school's success ✨ How proactive communication reduces conflict and builds trust ✨ The reality that confidence doesn't come overnight—it grows with systems, support, and consistency ✨ Practical ways to onboard parents, clarify expectations, and foster community involvement And most importantly, I'll remind you that you are not alone. What if you had a community of founders who reminded you that you're not crazy for doing this—and helped you do it well? That's exactly why I created Microschool Masterminds and the Open House Playbook. These resources are designed to give you the clarity, tools, and encouragement you need to lead with confidence.

What if one moment shattered everything you thought your life would be? For Kathy Fettke, that moment came when her husband was suddenly diagnosed with melanoma - and doctors told them he might only have six months to live. Two little kids. A mortgage they could barely keep up with. No plan B. But instead of breaking, Kathy turned that fear into fuel. She used her tiny weekend radio show to start interviewing successful people, desperate to learn how they built real, lasting wealth. What she discovered changed everything - and set her on a path to financial freedom, purpose, and impact. Today, Kathy is the Co-Founder and CEO of Real Wealth, helping thousands of families create passive income and true financial independence through real estate. In this raw and powerful conversation, we talk about the mindset it takes to rebuild when life falls apart, the truth about money and fear, and why living unapologetically might just be the most radical thing you can do. It's not just a story about real estate. It's a story about resilience, faith, and finding freedom on the other side of fear.

The publishing industry has a rule of thumb that if a book can sell 10,000 copies in the first year - it'll make steady sales.

Think slow and steady is boring? Tim Brownson joins me to discuss why the tortoise's approach is actually the secret to business success. We dig into Aesop's classic fable about persistence versus instant gratification - why 90% of podcasters quit before episode three, how Tim built his business through years of blogging + why you should double whatever timeline you think your business will take.

In this episode of First Light, host Chris Keller sits down with a visionary leader whose work is transforming the way businesses think about people, culture, and performance. Together, they explore what it truly means to lead with intention — from building high-performing teams to creating “culture by design.” Listeners will hear stories of trial and triumph, how surrounding yourself with the right community can accelerate growth, and why the balance between love and accountability defines lasting leadership. The conversation moves beyond theory into actionable insights about how to build teams that thrive, cultivate environments where purpose drives productivity, and design cultures that don't just happen — they're built deliberately. The guest shares personal reflections on health, discipline, and consistency, and how these foundational habits ripple outward to impact every part of business and life. Seven Key Takeaways: True leadership balances caring deeply for your people while demanding high performance.Culture doesn't happen by accident — it must be intentionally designed and nurtured.Mastermind groups foster accountability, perspective, and accelerated personal and business growth.What gets measured — and made public — improves exponentially.Consistency and discipline are the bridges between motivation and long-term success.Investing time wisely in communities, events, and relationships creates exponential returns.Personal health and strong daily routines are the foundation for effective leadership and sustained energy.

Wastewater isn't an endpoint—it's a decision point. On Wastewater Thursday, host Trace Blackmore, CWT sharpens the operator's toolkit with field-tested lessons: dose by mechanism, verify by sampling discipline, and use wastewater's fast feedback to protect quality, cost, and permits. Sampling discipline protects credibility Trace recounts an early-career moment when an inspector sampled the wrong location, triggering alarms. Immediate, methodical resampling—guided by logs and a clear process map—proved the system was in spec. The leadership takeaway: embed verification before escalation. Clear sampling points, time-stamped logs, and a rapid “reproduce the reading” drill turn uncertainty into clarity.  Mechanism over myth: coagulant control  In a new Detective H2O case, James McDonald explains why overfeeding coagulant collapses floc. When particles swing past neutral, like charges repel again and settling stalls. The fix is not “more chemistry,” but right-sizing dose to production and confirming with jar tests at the correct take-off point.  From discharge to resource  Greetings from past guests reinforce the shift under way. Arnaud Valleteau de Moulliac (Veolia Water Technology) frames wastewater as a local, decarbonized resource—with energy-positive plants and reuse as standard practice. Steve Russell (Kiewit) notes supply pressure will push even deeper recycling. Mark Lewis, CWT (Southeastern Laboratories) underscores wastewater's advantage: “If you treat it, you see it.”  Make wastewater a reliable, fast-feedback control loop—rooted in charge balance, sampling rigor, and reuse thinking.  Listen to the full conversation above.

This might be a hot take, but if your usage terms are longer than a single sentence, they're overcomplicating your process and making you less competitive.We've seen too many creatives get caught up in the messy details of licensing terms - ****terms that didn't need to exist in the first place. We've simplified our process completely, and it doesn't only save us headaches - it saves us clients.When potential clients are choosing a creative partner, who do you think they're signing with: the creative who's charging additional add-on fees to “protect” their work, or the partner who makes the client process simple, seamless and positive?In this week's episode, we're breaking down exactly how we approach the ambiguous concept of licensing - why we stopped stressing about usage, how we price it when it does apply, and the proven benefits of shifting from “protection mode” to “partnership mode.”We cover:What usage restrictions are and how they've become outdated in today's creative climateThe simple multipliers we do use when licensing appliesThe single line to add to your next contract that changes everythingHow eliminating licensing stress removes friction, speeds up contracts, and gets you rehired fasterWhat to do if a client “uses your content out of turn” (with 2 real-life examples from Mastermind grads that have had their content plastered across NYC's Times Square without their knowledge

What if the biggest thing holding you back in business isn't your funnel, your offer, or even your strategy …but your brain? In this episode of The Expert Edge, I sit down with Dr. Shannon Irvine - entrepreneur, neuroscientist, coach, and author of the brand-new book The 67 Day Year. Shannon has helped thousands of business owners rewire their thinking so success isn't just possible - it's inevitable. We dive into: Why your brain is wired for safety, not success - and how to flip the switch so growth feels natural instead of threatening. How to identify and break subconscious “brake pedal” beliefs (like “I'm not enough” or “No one will buy this”) that stall your momentum. The priming process elite athletes use to train their brains for performance—and how you can apply it to launches, sales calls, and big stages. Shannon also unpacks her Mind Matrix tool and shares why rewiring your brain is the fastest way to unlock higher income, influence, and impact - without burning out or adding 27 new strategies to your plate. If you've ever felt like you're doing everything “right” and still not getting the results you want, this episode will show you what's really going on under the hood - and how to change it.

I'm a big believer that launching or selling a mastermind can be the most easeful type of launch if you do it right. I've watched some of my clients achieve amazing results lately so today I'm sharing 3 things that are working for them right now. If you are launching or doubling down on promoting your Mastermind this quarter, this is the episode for you.Know Your Numbers Inside OutSuccess doesn't happen by accident. My clients who regularly achieve strong returns in their mastermind launches rely on clear metrics and realistic benchmarks. They know their conversion rates and plan accordingly, mapping out what 3%, 5%, or 10% conversion would mean for their business.The difference between hoping for a good launch and creating one comes down to this clarity. When you know exactly how many leads you need to hit your revenue goal, you can reverse-engineer the entire process.Build Consistent Lead Flow Through Conversion EventsThere's no one size fits all, but if I was to recommend a strategy to get more people inside your mastermind, it would be to harness the power of a conversion event.Conversion events like webinars, workshops, masterclasses provide a really structured way to engage potential clients, establish your authority and build trust before the sale conversation even begins.Turn Client Results Into Your Marketing EngineWhen it comes to content strategy, my clients have been using their client experiences and results to do the heavy lifting… and it's working. Sharing authentic transformations positions you as the authority in your niche far more effectively than talking about your credentials ever could.When potential clients see real case studies, testimonials, and consistent success stories, they begin to see you as the definitive leader in your field. Creating authority content like this illustrates why your mastermind is the only place where those transformations will happen.Q4 is such a fun and exciting time in business and launching a mastermind in this season is honestly the ultimate opportunity. The market is ready, the energy is there and with the right strategy, I know you can create something truly exceptional that sets you up for an incredible year ahead.Connect with Ellie: Doors are NOW OPEN for The Mastermind Model ellieswift.com/model  Apply for the Scalable Freedom Mastermind hereFREE Private Podcast “Inside a 7-Figure Mastermind Business” hereWebsite:         https://www.ellieswift.com/Instagram:     @elliehswiftFacebook Group:     www.facebook.com/groups/shineonsocialellieswift/

I still can't believe we pulled this off. Twenty-five women gathered at my house for a tea party that turned into so much more than food and flowers. We had homemade dips, Red Lobster-style cheddar biscuits, Trader Joe's blooms, and all the laughter that happens when women who love business and life show up in one space together. As we prepped and cooked, the conversation got real. We talked about investing, partnerships, managing properties from across the country, raising kids who think like entrepreneurs, and even curly hair routines (because of course it did). Somewhere between the biscuits and the charcuterie board, we found ourselves talking about what it really means to build wealth, freedom, and community without losing ourselves in the process. This day reminded me why I love what I do and why the Society of Entrepreneurial Women exists in the first place. When women come together, share openly, and cheer each other on, there's nothing we can't build. If you've been craving a space where ambition meets authenticity, this episode is for you.

…Patients who show up for the eval, and never come back.

Taylor Swift gave us a peek behind the curtain on the New Heights podcast! Not only did she reveal the cover of The Life of a Showgirl, but she also opened up about her love of numerology and astrology. While Jason Kelce looked a little baffled, Swifties know these details are pure gold for decoding future Easter eggs. Let's break down what she shared and uncover what it means for Taylor's next era (and yours)!

Three films in this year's NYFF lineup explore the intersections of quotidian life and the arts, following artists whose efforts to make time and space for their creative passions are thwarted or frustrated by the grind of the everyday. In Kent Jones's Late Fame, adapted from an Arthur Schnitzler novella, a once-upon-a-time New York poet (and now a postal worker) is intoxicated by the sudden attentions of a coterie of twentysomething wannabe poets. In Kelly Reichardt's The Mastermind, set in the 1970s, an aimless art-school dropout executes a comically sloppy heist at a local museum, as if seeking escape from his banal, bourgeois family life. And in Lucio Castro's Drunken Noodles, an art student spends a summer in New York, having a series of serendipitous and erotic encounters around painting, poetry, and writing. Each film dwells in how both the making and consuming of art can force life into a pace incompatible with that of the modern world. Last Sunday at NYFF, Jones, Reichardt, and Castro joined Film Comment editors Devika Girish and Clinton Krute for a conversation exploring the temporality of cinema versus the other arts, the challenge of being a working artist, and the exquisite craft behind their new films.

In this episode of On Brand: Taylor's Version, we're joined by Ann Handley — Wall Street Journal bestselling author, Chief Content Officer of MarketingProfs, and one of IBM's ‘7 people shaping modern marketing.' Ann brings not just her marketer's eye but also her mom's heart to the Swiftiverse. We'll explore how Taylor's storytelling fuels parasocial relationships, why The Eras Tour transformed casual fans into rabid ones, and what smart marketers can learn from the savviest hitmaker of our time. What You'll Learn in This Episode How Taylor Swift's storytelling makes the personal feel universal—and what marketers can borrow from that. Why parasocial relationships don't have to be clinical, and how Taylor transforms them into community. The genius of anticipation, reveals, and Easter eggs in building long-term fan trust. What the Eras Tour can teach marketers about creating inclusive, unforgettable experiences. How Ann Handley's own fandom grew from casual listener to full-on Swiftie devotion.

"What if I told you none of it was accidental?" This week, you're getting six show-and-tell songs instead of three! In this episode, we explore the concept of parallel songs in Taylor Swift's discography, focusing on thematic and lyrical connections between pairs of songs. We discuss the similarities between the carefree hangout vibes of “22” and the more mature perspective of letting loose in “Bejeweled”; the contrasting views of fate in “Invisible String” and agency in “Mastermind”. And, we take a technical lens to the songs “Labyrinth” and “You're Losing Me”, highlighting how they embody experiences of love and loss.

Most coaches and course creators think they have a traffic problem… But what they really have is a model problem. In this episode of The Expert Edge, I sit down with Valerie Feghali, founder of Wellness Pro Creative, who went from physical therapist to running a thriving membership with thousands of paying subscribers. We unpack: How niching down (to a “scary specific” audience) allowed Valerie to scale faster and attract higher-quality buyers. Why memberships are one of the most predictable ways to build recurring revenue without burning out creating endless new content. The simple paid ads funnel that pays for itself while warming up buyers for your higher-ticket programs. If you've ever wondered whether you should niche tighter, start a membership, or simplify your business model so it works without you glued to your laptop 24/7, this episode is for you.

In this episode, Jason reveals how he processed betrayal, heartbreak, and decades of masks in weeks — not years — and why truth is the foundation that accelerates growth faster than anything else.

Most masterminds? Total garbage. They're hype machines, overpriced courses in disguise, or giant groups where you're stuck babysitting beginners. That's why in this episode I'm doing a fit check—so you'll know if the BS-Free Mastermind is your “hell yes” next step, or a “not right now.” Either way, you'll walk away knowing exactly what support you need to build a steady, sustainable business.

The Revenue Reset: a fast way to earn more without working more. How the Staying Solo Framework (Salary, Strategy, Space) helps you build sustainably.

We were delighted to welcome Kelly Reichardt, Bill Camp, Hope Davis, Gaby Hoffman, and John Magaro to the 63rd New York Film Festival to discuss The Mastermind in a conversation with NYFF Artistic Director Dennis Lim. Reichardt's restrained and often funny anti-thriller is set against a Nixon-era backdrop of alienation and disillusionment, following a taciturn family man (Josh O'Connor) who makes the rash, largely inscrutable decision to orchestrate a heist at the local art museum. The 63rd New York Film Festival is presented in partnership with Rolex. The Mastermind opens at Film at Lincoln Center on October 17.

LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ What if 90% of entrepreneurs are doomed to fail in 2025... but you could beat the odds? In this explosive episode of Dropping Bombs, I sit down with Ryan Pineda—ex–pro baseball player turned real estate mogul, investor, and digital disruptor—who went from broke rookie to building multiple 7- and 8-figure companies before age 35.   Ryan doesn't sugarcoat it: talent won't save you, hustle alone won't scale you, and why most people stay broke. From flipping hundreds of homes and launching a 200-agent brokerage to building Wealthy Investor and his newest play, Mastermind 19, Ryan's blueprint is simple—stack recurring income, leverage brand, and make your money work harder than you do. He even drops bombs on why YouTube golf may mint more millionaires than the PGA Tour—and how faith, free will, and discipline are the ultimate edge in business and life. Ryan also drops truth bombs on Tai Lopez's alleged Ponzi scheme involving bankrupt businesses—discussing investor risks, accountability, and why due diligence is key in a rigged economy.   This isn't motivation—it's a wake-up call. If you're tired of watching others win while you grind in circles, Ryan's story proves you don't need a league, a lottery ticket, or luck. You need the right playbook—and the balls to run it.

A mastermind isn't just a group call or a Facebook community. If you build it right, it's the most powerful tool for growth, accountability, and transformation. In this episode, Lori and I share exactly how we structure our masterminds so they don't just sell out, but actually change lives. We break down why access matters (but not too much), why accountability is non-negotiable, and how giving your members a platform to lead inside the group creates buy-in you can't manufacture. Get ready to design the kind of program you wish existed!   HIGHLIGHTS Why masterminds thrive when you create opportunities for leadership. How to help your mastermind members stay engaged and consistent. The sweet spot between access and avoiding burnout. My secret to building better programs. How to design programs that deliver real, lasting results. How to create a mastermind that breeds for growth and collaboration.   RESOURCES Join the most supportive mastermind on the internet - the Mentor Collective Mastermind!
