What makes a retreat unforgettable?   It is rarely just the itinerary.   It is the feeling.  The energy in the room.   The moments guests did not expect.   In this episode of The Retreat Leaders Podcast, Shannon Jamail sits down with Austin-based singer, songwriter, and musician Christine Baird to talk about the role of live music, art, and real human connection in creating transformational retreat experiences.   Christine has performed at multiple retreats hosted by Shannon, and together they explore why live music brings something to a retreat that a playlist, a screen, or even AI-generated music simply cannot replicate.   They discuss how music and art can shift the energy of a room, help guests become more present, create emotional anchors, and turn a good retreat into something people remember long after they leave.   The conversation also dives into why live, in-person experiences are becoming even more valuable in a fast-moving AI world. As technology gets better at creating content, music, images, and experiences digitally, the value of real human energymay actually increase.   If you are a retreat leader looking for creative retreat activities, ways to improve your guest experience, or ideas that help your retreat stand out, this episode will make you think differently about what belongs on your itinerary.   In This Episode You'll Learn Why live music can elevate a retreat experience How art and creativity support deeper connection Why guests remember feelings more than schedules How music can help people become more present The difference between recorded or AI-generated music and a live human performance Why in-person experiences are becoming more valuable in the AI era How retreat leaders can use music and art to create emotional anchors Why creative retreat activities can improve guest satisfaction, referrals, and repeat attendance Key Takeaways Retreats Are Felt, Not Just Attended Your guests may forget the exact order of the workshops. They will remember how the experience made them feel. Live Music Changes the Room There is something different about having a real person creating music in real time. Guests feel the energy, imperfection, emotion, and connection. AI Can Create Music. It Cannot Recreate Human Presence. Technology can create incredibly impressive music. What it cannot reproduce is the shared experience of being in a room with another human being creating something live. Art Creates Emotional Anchors A song, painting, creative workshop, or shared artistic experience can become one of the strongest memories someone takes home from a retreat. Retreat Leaders Should Think Beyond Content You do not need another workshop just because there is an empty hour on the schedule. Sometimes the better choice is music, art, nature, conversation, or simply space to experience the moment.

How Shannon Met Christine (00:01:39) Shannon shares how she discovered Christine's magical voice at a winery and was so moved she hired her for retreats. Live Music vs. AI (00:03:35) The conversation explores how live music offers an emotional, human experience that AI-generated music simply cannot replicate. The Effort and Authenticity of Singing (00:04:36) Christine explains that singing is a physical, emotional effort, an instrument from within the body, unlike AI's effortless polish. The Human Brain is Rejecting AI (00:07:43) Shannon and Christine discuss how people are subconsciously starting to recognize and dismiss content created by artificial intelligence. Christine's Musical Journey (00:09:20) Christine shares her background, from musical theater in New York to finding her authentic voice and moving to Austin. The Power of Music at Retreats (00:13:30) Christine discusses how live music's frequency can literally change the biology and energy of a room and its attendees. Creating a Transformative Experience (00:17:40) Shannon praises Christine's ability to engage the crowd, giving them permission to dance, sing, or simply listen and feel. Christine's Long-Term Dreams (00:19:36) Christine shares her vision of connecting with large audiences, aiming to create uplifting experiences rather than just seeking fame. Dealing with Haters and Criticism (00:22:20) The discussion turns to handling online negativity and how life experience builds the strength to stay authentic despite criticism. The Unnatural Nature of Online Comments (00:26:49) Christine shares the perspective that comment sections are unnatural because humans were not designed to hear everyone's unfiltered thoughts. Favorite Music and Original Songs (00:29:48) Christine talks about her love for 70s and 80s music and her process of incorporating her original songs into sets. The Importance of Presence in Performance (00:33:12) Christine explains that staying present and authentic during a performance is key to creating a genuine emotional connection with the audience.

Over two decades in Memphis-area schools will teach you how to spot a leader who's still growing. Fred Holmes — known inside the Ruckus Maker Mastermind as the Velvet Hammer — started as a science teacher in Shelby County Schools, moved through teacher leadership and an assistant principalship, ran his own building as principal in Arkansas, and is now back in Memphis Shelby County Schools as a Professional Learning Communities coach, building leadership capacity district-wide. He's been a Ruckus Maker since the Mastermind's earliest days, joining during his first principalship and never missing a Wednesday since. Find him inside the Ruckus Maker community at betterleadersbetterschools.com Most AI tools will give you a confident answer whether or not it's actually true. Fred Holmes, a longtime Ruckus Maker and Memphis-area school leader, breaks down why he trusts his AI coach for principals — Digital Danny, built exclusively for school leadership — with his highest-stakes conversations, and why a decade-old peer Mastermind still shapes how he leads today.

Two weeks into dating, we started working together. Six years later, we still do it every single day.Working with a spouse, a sibling, or a best friend is one of the most requested topics we've ever had on this show, and for good reason. Almost nobody talks about what it's actually like.Here's the tricky part. When you build a business with the person you live with, there's no line between the workday and the rest of your life. Every deadline, every big decision, and every win lands in the same house you eat dinner in. Nothing gets postponed, which sounds hard until you realize it's the reason you sort things out faster.Then there's the working styles. One of you locks in at 9am and is done at 7pm. The other is a slow burn who finally hits flow at 9pm and doesn't want to stop. One of you runs at every new idea. The other wants to make sure the foundation holds. Neither is wrong, and the whole thing gets easier the second you stop expecting your partner to work exactly like you do.In this episode, we sat down and answered the questions we get asked the most. Joey wrote his list, Christy wrote hers, and neither of us saw the other's until we hit record. It's the honest version.How to divide the work so you stop burning out on the same tasksWhy output matters more than hours, and how to stop keeping scoreWhat to do when one of you carries more of the drive than the otherThe green lights and red flags before you say yes to any partnershipHow to protect the relationship underneath the businessBuilding something with someone you love is one of the best things in the world. It just works a whole lot better when you build it on purpose.P.S. If you want the business side of this dialed in, we're running the $10k/Month Creator Workshop again on September 15. Live, cameras on, and we break down pricing, lead generation, and sales for $9. Applications for our next Mastermind cohort open that same day, and we're only taking 10 creatives.

Get in Touch! Send us a message.Thursday afternoon. You just got off a call with your accountant. Sales are down. A vendor sent a price increase letter this morning — effective immediately, no negotiation window. A rep is coming in tomorrow and you're not sure what he's bringing from the field.You go home and try to explain it to your spouse. They listen. They're supportive. But you can see in their eyes they're following the words without feeling the weight. "I'm sure it'll turn around," they say.You try a version of it with a friend at dinner. He listens, then says: "Man, I wish I could make my own hours like you do."You take a sip of your drink and change the subject.The decisions you're making — when to expand, when to cut, how to handle a vendor relationship turning adversarial, what to do with a salesperson who's underperforming — require context that almost no one in your personal life has. So you make them alone. You carry the weight alone. And over time, isolation becomes the default setting.Meanwhile, the dealer running a showroom a thousand miles away at a similar revenue level? They're not your competition. They're your peer group. And some of them solved last quarter's problem two years ago.In this episode, we talk about the peer call — the thirty-minute monthly conversation that turns isolation into a resource.What you'll hear:Why the people who love you can offer support but not the specific understanding that comes from having made the same callsHow to find a peer who isn't your competition and why most of them are waiting for the same conversationThe AI prompt that turns a peer call transcript into an accountability document instead of just a venting sessionGet the AI Note-taking Guide → cabinetnotes.com

When was the last time you actually stopped and asked yourself how you're really doing? Not the autopilot answer you give people at the gym or in a group text. The real one. That's exactly where I took a room full of guys during a recent workshop, and it cracked something open for every single person in there, myself included. In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm sharing the Montana Mastermind Exclusive Session Part 1, where I walk through the 10 alignments I use to avoid burnout and build what I call blissful balance. This isn't some complicated system. It's not rocket science, and you don't need a PhD to get it. But it's profound because of how simple it is, and I've watched it transform thousands of lives, including my own back when I was running myself into the ground as an entrepreneur. Here's the big shift. Most of us think burnout is about working too much. It's not. Burnout happens when a handful of areas in your life go completely unattended while you pour everything into one or two. You can be crushing it in your career and still be running on empty because your health, your relationships, or your spirit are getting ignored. The fix isn't working less. It's getting honest about where you actually stand, then making small, intentional moves in the areas that need it. Here's what stood out most from this session. Give yourself an honest score, not a nostalgic one. I ask people to rate themselves one to five in each alignment based on the last 30 days only. Not high school. Not "the person I used to be." Just now. That single shift in perspective is what makes the exercise actually useful instead of a feel good exercise in self deception. Selfless service only counts when there's no string attached. Giving to your kids or your best friend feels good, but it lives in a different category. Real selfless service is time, insight, or money given to someone with zero personal connection and zero expectation of return. I use an app called Kiva to fund micro loans for entrepreneurs in developing countries, and I've never once pulled my money back out. I just keep reinvesting it into someone else's shot. Your environment might be sabotaging your health more than your diet. We talk a lot about food and workouts, but EMFs, mold, and tainted water are quietly wrecking people's health and nobody's checking for it. I know guys who look absolutely jacked on the outside and are falling apart on the inside because their house is full of black mold. You cannot out exercise a bad environment. It just doesn't work that way. Fifty five percent of communication is nonverbal, and twenty five percent is tone. That means only a small fraction of what you're actually saying comes from your words. In my marriage, I use something I call the love calendar. Every night my wife and I score the day one to ten, average it, and track it over the month. It sounds simple because it is, but it keeps us honest instead of letting resentment quietly pile up. Your morning is sacred territory, and most people give it away for free. Right when you wake up, your brain is still in a theta state, more connected and more open than at almost any other point in your day. The second you grab your phone, that's gone. I protect thirty minutes in the morning and thirty minutes before bed as phone free time, and it has changed how I show up for literally everything else. None of this is about being perfect. It's about knowing where you stand and choosing, on purpose, to close the gap. That's the whole game. When I actually run through these ten alignments consistently, my life gets fuller, my relationships get deeper, and honestly I just feel like myself again. That's what happy hustling actually means. Not hustling harder. Hustling with intention. If any part of this hit home, I'd love for you to listen to the full episode.

There are only 10 days to go until the 25th anniversary of the devastating, tragic terror attacks on 9/11. In the lead-up to this special anniversary, we're learning that the alleged mastermind behind the attacks won't have his confessions admitted in court.  A military judge has now thrown out the confessions because of how they were obtained. What kind of hurdle could this present to the U.S. government as they try to plead their case?

If you look in the mirror and your hair is out of place, you don't hesitate to fix it. You don't spiral into "my life is over and I'm not meant for success." You just adjust it. But when we look in the mirror of life, we don't apply that same radical responsibility and simplicity.In this episode I'm talking about why everything we see on the outside is a reflection of what's going on inside, how to take radical responsibility for what you're seeing without making it dense and heavy, and why the stories you're attaching to your results are the thing interfering with your simplicity. This is about looking in the mirror of life and adjusting what needs adjusting — no drama, no story.Key Takeaways:If your hair is out of place, you fix it — no story, no drama, no spiralEverything you see in the mirror of life is a reflection of what's inside youWhy we don't apply the same radical responsibility to life that we do to our physical appearanceThe sticky client situations I had this year (and how I asked: where is this my own reflection?)No avoidance, no projecting, no deflecting — just ownership and responsibilityThe prompt: look in the mirror of life and see what it's presenting you so you can go deeperScaling to multiple 6-figures?

Washington, D.C. Auf einem Schreibtisch steht ein kleines Schild: "Dr. Evil". Der Mann dahinter heißt Richard Berman – und kaum jemand kennt seinen Namen. Dabei hat er mitgeprägt, wie wir denken: übers Rauchen, übers Trinken, über die Klimakrise. Sein Produkt ist der Zweifel. Erst verkauft er ihn der Tabakindustrie, dann den Alkoholkonzernen und schließlich an Öl und Gasfirmen.Wir folgen Bermans Spur durch ein Geflecht aus Tarnorganisationen, Talkshows und Millionen-Deals – bis in deutsche Dörfer, wo heute Hunderte kleiner Vereine gegen Windräder kämpfen. Dabei merken wir: Berman ist kein Mastermind. Er ist ein ganz gewöhnlicher Typ, der einfach seinen Job macht. Genau das macht ihn so gefährlich. Warum ist sein Geschäftsmodell - der Zweifel - oft mächtiger als Fakten? Und wie tief steckt er längst in uns?Hier geht es zum Podcast "REICH: Das Geschäft mit dem Zweifel" Alle fünf Folgen ab 13. August in ARD Sounds. "REICH: Das Geschäft mit dem Zweifel" ist eine Produktion von Cliff im Auftrag der ARD Klimaredaktion (MDR, SWR und HR).

Picture this. You're standing in the middle of untouched Montana wilderness, no cell service, no notifications, just you, a group of high level entrepreneurs, and whatever idea decides to show up in the silence. That's exactly where this conversation happened, and honestly, it's one of the reasons it hits different. In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I hike and pod during the Montana Mastermind with Logan Forsyth, co-founder and co-CEO of mediascaling.com, an eight figure content firm that works with founder led brands and high ticket businesses across the country. His team has generated over 10 billion views and 24 million followers for clients, with nine social media awards and third party verified stats to back it up. He runs a team of about 145 people, mostly remote, out of Los Angeles, and he's built his entire business around one core idea. Content isn't just marketing anymore, it's trust at scale. This episode matters because we're at a strange moment in business. Everyone has access to the same AI tools, the same templates, the same shortcuts. So what actually separates you from the next person doing the same thing? Logan breaks it down in a way that's simple but honestly kind of a gut check. It's not the tools you use. It's the brand and the proof you build behind them, and those two things can't be copied. We covered a lot, but here's what stood out most. Content is the new website. Logan put it plainly. People are doing full due diligence on you through your socials before they ever buy from you or book a call. If your content is underwhelming, you lose trust you never even knew you were losing, and there's no way to measure exactly how many deals walked away because of it. Brand and proof are the two assets nobody can copy. With AI, anyone can spin up an offer or an info product in twenty minutes. What they can't spin up is years of trust and a stack of real results behind your name. That's your moat now, and it's the one thing that actually compounds. Most people quit right before content starts working. Logan's seen it over and over. People track leads and sales only, don't see instant results, and walk away. Meanwhile their close rates, average order value, and retention are all quietly improving in the background because of the trust content builds. He said if you can stick with it for two to three years, most people won't, and that alone becomes your edge. Batching beats burnout every time. Trying to wake up and record a video every single day is a fast track to quitting. Logan's team researches, scripts, and batches thirty videos in about two hours of filming, then hands it off to editors. Structure isn't the boring part, it's actually what makes consistency possible. AI written scripts sound like everyone else's AI written scripts. Logan's team reviews thousands of sample scripts during hiring, and he said almost all of them read the same because everyone's feeding AI the same prompts. His advice was clear. Use AI to compete, but don't expect it to set you apart, because everyone already has it. We also got into why digital detoxes matter even for someone running a massive social media agency, how community and mastermind trips shake loose ideas you'd never find working alone, and Logan's own rapid fire answers on everything from his biggest regret to the advice he'd give his eighteen year old self. There's something grounding about hearing a guy who lives in the content world talk about how much clarity he finds by putting his phone away completely. It's a good reminder that the tools are supposed to serve the life, not the other way around. When I asked Logan for any final words for the happy hustlers listening, he didn't talk business at all. He talked about finding a wife who makes him better instead of someone he has to pull up alone, finding faith, building a family, and wanting to support not just his own people but thousands of others through what he builds. That's the whole episode in one answer honestly.

This is your morning All Local update for August 27th, 2026.

  A man who allegedly claimed to be the mastermind behind the terror attacks on September 11, 2001, will finally get his day in court. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed has been in government custody since 2003 -- and held at Guantanamo Bay since 2006 -- but he's never had a trial. He's been waiting for more than 20 years now, and he'll have to wait two more years. Greg tries to understand why the judge over the case said a hearing in 2027 was too soon. 

Tune in to our weekly LIVE Mastermind Q+A Podcast for expert advice, peer collaboration, and actionable insights on success in the Probate, Divorce, Late Mortgage/Pre-Foreclosure, and Aged Expired niches! In this week's All The Leads Mastermind, the coaches and community explore why successful prospecting requires more than simply asking someone to sell their property. The discussion focuses on understanding each prospect's situation, offering useful resources, building trust, and staying connected until they're ready to make a decision. Members also share perspectives from the wholesaling side, reinforcing that agents, investors, and wholesalers can all succeed by putting the homeowner's needs first and creating solutions that work for everyone. The conversation also covers practical approaches to reverse mortgage outreach, using local revitalization and grant programs to create new opportunities, and developing partnerships that expand the solutions you can offer. The episode wraps up with advice for newer probate professionals on building a repeatable system and a discussion of upcoming appraisal changes that could significantly affect agents, appraisers, and real estate transactions.Key Takeaways Think beyond the immediate transaction. Many prospects aren't ready to sell today, making patience and long-term relationships essential.  Differentiate yourself by solving problems. Useful resources and trusted service providers give prospects a reason to remember and refer you.  Put the homeowner's needs ahead of the deal. Whether you're an agent, investor, or wholesaler, the right solution should depend on what works for the homeowner.  Approach sensitive leads with empathy. Reverse mortgage and late-mortgage conversations work better when you ask questions and avoid making assumptions about someone's financial situation.  Turn local programs into prospecting opportunities. Revitalization grants and similar programs can provide a compelling reason to contact and assist property owners.  Have a system and follow it. Consistent, scheduled activity remains one of the biggest differences between those who succeed with leads and those who don't.  Prepare for changes in real estate. The group discusses major upcoming appraisal changes and why agents may need to become more involved in providing property information.  #RealEstateProspecting #RealEstateInvesting #RealEstateWholesaling #RealEstateLeads Previous episodes: AllTheLeads.com/probate-mastermindInterested in Leads?

What if getting more visible isn't about reaching more people, but being seen by the clients you most want to coach?    In this episode, I introduce the Visibility Series and explain why visibility looks different when you approach it as an entrepreneur coach. The goal isn't simply followers or attention. It's building a clientele that buys and makes your business more energizing to grow.   Tune in to discover how the clients you attract can shape everything from how you feel about your prices to how willing you are to be seen. I share why changing who you are in response to the wrong clientele can make you less visible to the people you actually want to work with, and how focusing too heavily on numbers can pull you away from connection and service.   If you want to start making serious money as a coach, you need to check out 2k for 2k.

Have you ever hit every single goal you set out for yourself and still felt completely empty inside? That's the exact moment I found myself in years ago, staring at a stack of investor paperwork worth millions, and I couldn't sign it. I was recently interviewed by Eric Berman on Inside The Speakeasy. It was a great experience! We discuss my journey from extreme burnout to creating a life centered around freedom, fulfillment, and intentional success. Inside The Speakeasy, hosted by Eric Berman, gives entrepreneurs, founders, marketers, and creators an inside look at what it really takes to build and scale a successful business. Each episode features candid conversations with ambitious leaders who share the strategies, lessons, failures, and breakthroughs that shaped their journey. From startup growth and marketing execution to leadership and innovation, guests reveal what is actually working in today's business landscape. If you're ready to think bigger, take smarter risks, and accelerate your growth, pull up a chair and step Inside The Speakeasy. In this conversation, Eric and I got real about what it actually costs to grind your way to the top. I told him the story of building a tech startup in New York City in my early twenties, working over a hundred hours a week, running on four or five hours of sleep, and finally landing seven figure funding deals with partnerships tied to companies like Microsoft and IBM. On paper, I had made it. In my gut, I was smoked. My brother and I sat in our tiny apartment in Queens and ripped up the paperwork instead of signing it. That decision changed the entire direction of my life. We talked about why so many high performing entrepreneurs are optimizing every part of their business while completely neglecting the systems that support their own happiness. It's easy to build a scoreboard for revenue and totally forget to build one for your own peace. That's actually the question I think every entrepreneur needs to sit with. Are you chasing your own definition of success, or somebody else's? I chased someone else's for a long time, and it nearly cost me everything that actually mattered. One of the bigger things we got into is what I call the more disease. It's this constant craving for more money, more status, more followers, more stuff, and it infects high performers especially hard because we're wired to always push for the next level. The cure isn't actually more. It's contentment. Getting crystal clear on what you truly want and then practicing real gratitude for it, that's what breaks the cycle. Success without fulfillment is a trap, and I've watched it swallow people who look like they have everything. We also dug into digital overload, and honestly this one hits people harder than they realize. Constant screens, constant notifications, constant comparison, it quietly wrecks your happiness, your focus, and your relationships without you even noticing it happening. I shared some of the simple habits I use to fight it, like keeping the first and last thirty minutes of my day completely screen free. And we talked about growth. Real growth doesn't happen by accident. It takes consistent investment, reading in the morning, listening to something good in the afternoon, watching something educational at night. Small, repeatable habits stacked on top of each other over time. That's the whole game. If any of this is landing for you, do yourself a favor and go listen to the full conversation with Eric on Inside The Speakeasy.

In this episode of The Modern Hairstylist Podcast, Hunter Donia and Jodie Brown get into a topic Hunter has been teaching and refining with his Mastermind and Modern Stylist Movement members for the past year: what has actually changed when it comes to building, optimizing, and maintaining a website as a hairstylist right now, and why what worked a few years ago is no longer enough.Hunter is honest that he hates building websites just as much as you do. But he is equally clear that if you want to attract high ticket clients and charge high ticket prices, your website has to look and perform the part. This episode covers exactly what that means in today's landscape.Key Takeaways:

BIO: Dustin Heiner is a real estate investor who quit his job at 37 with financial freedom and passive income from his real estate investing. Through his coaching, podcast, and YouTube channel, he has helped thousands of people invest in real estate.STORY: In late 2019, Dustin was one signature away from leasing a gym that had nothing to do with real estate, then COVID-19 shut every gym in America and closed the deal for him instead. That near miss led him to a strategy that now runs quietly underneath everything he does: reselling his sawdust.LEARNING: You do not need a new business to build a new income stream. Look first at what your current one is already producing, and throwing away. "How does a smart man learn? He learns from his own mistakes, but a wise man learns from other people's mistakes."Dustin Heiner Dustin Heiner is a real estate investor who quit his job at 37 with financial freedom and passive income from his real estate investing. Through his coaching, podcast, and YouTube channel, he has helped thousands of people invest in real estate.He is also the founder of the Real Estate Wealth Builders Conference, where he brings thousands of real estate investors together to connect and grow their investing businesses.Dustin joins the podcast for the second time to unpack a business mistake he almost made in 2019, and the powerful lesson it taught him about turning overlooked assets into new revenue streams.He first appeared on episode 144: His Life Went From Loss to Success When He Mastered Passive Income.Catching up since 2019When Dustin last appeared on the show, real estate had just freed him from his day job. Years later, the numbers have grown considerably. He now owns more than 30 single-family rental homes and is assembling a further portfolio of nine to twelve properties. Some individual properties bring in around $3,000 a month in passive cash flow.But Dustin focuses not on the money he makes, but on the mindset behind his investing approach. He does not own a portfolio of properties and hope the market carries them higher, the way you might watch a stock. He runs a business built on real estate, and every property in it earns its place as inventory, not a bet on appreciation.The gym that almost sank a real estate empireDustin's core business has always been real estate. But in 2019, while his rental portfolio was thriving, he took his eye off the ball and chased a passion project: opening a gym. Dustin spent months trying to buy a property to set up the gym, but he couldn't find one worth the price, so he decided to lease space instead.This business model was completely outside his real estate expertise. He was about to sign the lease when COVID-19 hit, and gyms across the US were declared non-essential and shut down.If Dustin had signed the lease, he would have been obligated to pay rent for a closed-down business with no income. This would be his worst deal, even though he didn't make it in reality. What Dustin really lost was the time and attention he should have put into investments already making him money.Reselling your sawdustThe lesson Dustin took from this experience is a concept he calls reselling your sawdust, a more practical way to earn passive income. To explain this concept, he describes a sawmill. Its main product is lumber, but it also produces sawdust, a byproduct that usually costs money to burn or haul away.Instead of treating that sawdust as waste, some sawmills package and sell it as bedding for gerbil cages, compressed fire-starting logs, or filler in other products. The "waste" becomes a second profit center with almost no extra effort, because it was already being produced.Dustin argues the same opportunity exists inside almost every business. His sawmill is real estate. Everything else—his knowledge, audience, systems, and industry relationships—is sawdust. Instead of chasing an unrelated venture like a gym, he found more value repackaging what his core business was already generating for free.Five income streams built from the same sawdust pileDustin's business now includes several ventures that all trace back to the same real estate sawmill:Education: The Master Passive Income podcast and YouTube channel, which grew out of simply teaching people what he already knew about running rental properties like a business.Community: The Inner Circle, an in-person mastermind hosted in Nashville, plus an annual Mastermind in Paradise cruise to the Bahamas that doubles as a tax-deductible retreat.Software: From his internal systems and processes, Dustin built Income Builder, which systematizes the exact process he uses to vet, buy, and manage his own properties, so his coaching clients don't have to guess.Sponsorship revenue: Dustin now has more than 2.3 million podcast downloads and roughly 500,000 followers across social media, including about 300,000 on Instagram alone. This is an audience sponsors pay to reach.Done-for-you investing: The Portfolio Builder Program, a $100,000 white-glove service for people who have money but not time, that delivers 20 cash-flowing properties in 12 months.Each of these started as a side effect of running his real estate business, not as a planned product line. That's the point: sawdust is rarely obvious until you go looking for it.Real estate income is not automatically passiveDustin draws a sharp line between investing and speculating. Buying a stock and hoping the price rises is a bet on value appreciation you don't control. In his opinion, buying a rental property, unlike a stock, is like starting a business with recurring monthly revenue, real expenses, and inventory (the properties themselves).Dustin says he doesn't invest in real estate for appreciation but for monthly cash flow. This means treating each property like inventory that has to earn its place in the business regardless of what happens to its resale value.Dustin works with several experts (property managers, contractors, and leasing agents) who help him buy property. Before he buys a property, he gets these experts to sign off first. He calls his property manager and describes what he is considering before he owns it, not after. If the manager says the numbers will not work, he walks away and loses nothing but a little time. Buy first and ask questions later, and a bad answer turns an asset into a liability that is already yours.This upfront vetting is also what lets him spend roughly 30 minutes a month managing more than 30 properties and interests in nearly 1,000 apartment units. Rather than aiming to minimize hours worked, Dustin's goal is to build systems thorough enough that the business runs itself, making the income truly passive.Finding your own sawdustIf you're wondering how to find your sawdust, Dustin's challenge to you is simple: identify what your business (or even your job or hobby) is already producing that you're not capturing. He suggests starting with a basic question: what do you do in your free time, for fun or for work, that other people would pay for or want help with?For example, if you are a content strategist, consultant, or organizer, the research you compiled for one client, the frameworks you developed for one campaign, or the community you built for one cause could become a standalone product, course, or service if you package it well.Andrew's takeawaysA strength isn't a competitive advantage until you convert it into cash flow.Reselling your sawdust will more likely earn you more than starting something new.Actionable adviceAudit your own sawdust. List the skills, systems, content, data, or relationships your current work already produces, then ask who would pay for access to them.No. 1 goal for the next 12 monthsDustin's number one goal for the next 12 months is to scale Income Builder.io, the software that systematizes his real estate coaching, from roughly 100 users to 5,000.Parting words “Get started and make passive income.”Dustin Heiner Connect with Dustin Heiner

You attract what you tolerate. Whether you're tolerating a situation, a routine, a pattern, a nightmare client, an underperforming team member, or the way you talk to yourself in your head — if you're tolerating anything that falls below your standard, that's a direct energetic signal that dilutes everything else you're trying to manifest.In this episode I'm talking about the tolerance audit I did on my own team, why settling feels easier but costs you everything, and how cleaning up what you tolerate is the fastest way to get congruent with what you're actually calling in. This is about standards, integrity, and radical responsibility.Key Takeaways:You're a match for what you tolerate — whether it's a client, a team member, a pattern, or self-talkWhy tolerance dilutes all the other intention work you're doingThe team tolerance audit I did a few weeks ago (and why letting go felt lighter immediately)Settling feels easier until you realize it's costing you everythingWhere are you tolerating patterns, beliefs, or stories that keep you stuck?The prompt: put your glasses on and see clearly — what and who are you tolerating?Scaling to multiple 6-figures?

This is the last in a series of summer replays for the podcast, but I thought a short and sweet reminder was just the thing to kick off the next season. It's one that applies to pricing, but also to your work as a whole - the art of it, the backbone of decisions and creation together.  I'm talking about the fear-based thoughts that show up around raising your rates, why "is there any reason not to?" is a better question than "should I?", and how confidence actually comes from competence - from doing the work, even when it doesn't go perfectly. I share a personal story from the early days of my business and building the thick skin it took to put myself out there with no connections to fall back on. I hope this episode brings you some encouragement and energy to move forward into the fall asking better questions and getting better answers.      // STAY CONNECTED //  FREE RESOURCES: https://www.leahoconnell.com/learn PHOTO FUEL RETREAT & MASTERMIND: https://www.leahoconnell.com/retreat

There's a frustrating point in business where things are working, but it starts to feel like there's nowhere obvious left to go.You're making good work. You've raised your prices. You've built a reputation. But you're still being compared to the same photographers, competing for the same couples, and wondering how much further your market will let you go.In this episode, we're talking about what happens when we hit that ceiling, and why getting beyond it may require us to question some of the expectations we've learned to follow.We talk about the fear of doing something differently when the business is already working, why being easy to compare can eventually limit our growth, and how some of the photographers we admire most built permission to work differently over time.Because we can't become meaningfully different while making sure we never do anything differently. At some point, differentiation has to feel like something.CHAPTERS00:00 Why being different can feel so personal02:30 What hitting a ceiling actually feels like04:53 Why success can make us afraid to experiment07:20 “I want to grow, but I'm afraid to stop doing what everyone else does”09:28 Sneak peeks and the fear of breaking expectations11:47 If we do it differently, we have to bring people with us13:00 How great photographers earn permission to break the rules15:20 Why risk often comes before permission17:23 The other risk we rarely think about18:32 Which risk are we actually more afraid of?20:32 The greener pastures might already be in your marketREADY TO BREAK THROUGH YOUR OWN CEILING?We currently have one spot available inside our Mastermind.If you're ready to raise your rates, create more demand for your work, and build a business that feels more like you instead of following someone else's blueprint, we'd love to hear from you.Apply Here: https://learn.bradandjen.com/mastermind-coachingKEYWORDSwedding photography business, photography business, wedding photographer pricing, market ceiling, photography pricing, creative differentiation, standing out as a photographer, wedding photography marketing, creative business, photography competition, raising photography prices, luxury wedding photographer, photographer mindset, photography coaching, wedding photographer mastermind

We can now all spot AI slop miles off - the em dash, the bullet points, the "it's not this, it's that". Yet AI is still super handy for speeding day-to-day tasks - so how do you use AI for business writing without sounding like a bot? Communications expert Chris Fenning is back to discuss the whole thing. He explains the two jobs AI does brilliantly + the two you should never hand over. And a strange moment I had with the word 'ok'.

Have you ever built something you love, poured years into it, and never once stopped to ask what it's actually worth? Most business owners haven't. And that one blind spot could cost them everything they worked for. In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I sit down with Michael Sauer also known as Bone, an exit planning expert who has helped guide business transactions up to a hundred and twenty million dollars. He works with business owners to figure out exactly what their company is worth today, what it could be worth years from now, and how to make it as sellable as possible before life forces the decision for them. You can find him and his work at kandemlaw.com. What makes this episode matter is the timing. Bone dropped some numbers on me that stopped me in my tracks, and I think they'll do the same for you. Only twelve to twenty percent of businesses that go up for sale actually sell. Of the ones that do sell, half go for less than the owner needed. And here's the gut punch. Only five percent of business owners are actually happy with what they walked away with after the sale. Five percent. That's not a small gap, that's a system that's broken for almost everyone going through it. Here's what stuck with me most from our conversation. Fifty percent of businesses get sold involuntarily. Health issues, family emergencies, burnout, none of us plan for these things to force our hand, but they happen. Bone's point is simple. Build your business to be sellable now, not someday, so you're never caught off guard. It takes years to sell right, not months. Most owners come to Bone wanting to sell within twelve months. He tells them straight up that's not enough time. Three years minimum, five years ideal, if you actually want top value. The number on paper isn't the number in your pocket. Broker fees, attorney fees, capital gains tax, they all take a bite. Sell for ten million without a real tax strategy and you might walk away with seven. Bone's advice is to reverse engineer the number you actually need and plan backward from there. Seventy nine percent of business owners regret selling within a year. Not sadness. Not stress. Profound regret. That statistic alone is why proactive planning matters so much more than people realize. Profit First is one of the simplest financial moves you can make. If you haven't implemented it in your business yet, Bone calls it the number one financial hack for owners. Set money aside before you spend it, not after. We also got into the fun stuff. I put Bone through my rapid fire round and got some real answers. Taco Bell is his go to food, his spirit animal is a bald eagle, and his best piece of legal advice might be the most important thing you hear in this whole episode. Hire an attorney before you need one. We also talked about family, gratitude, and what it means to build a life you're proud of, not just a business that sells well. This episode is a reminder that hustle without a plan is just motion. You can work hard for twenty years and still leave money and peace of mind on the table if you never stop to ask the right questions. Bone's whole approach is about giving business owners confidence and security, so when the moment comes to sell, they're ready instead of scrambling. If you're ready to start thinking ahead instead of playing catch up with your own business, this conversation is going to hit home. Go listen to the full episode at https://happyhustle.com/podcast.

What if the fastest way to grow your business wasn't working harder-but learning from someone who's already done it? In this episode of The Retreat Leaders Podcast, Shannon Jamail sits down with Shari Leid, internationally recognized keynote speaker, author, and entrepreneur, for a conversation about one of the most overlooked business skills: knowing when to ask for help.   Shari has built an incredible career as a professional speaker, but like many entrepreneurs, she wanted to diversify her business by adding memberships and retreats as recurring revenue streams.   Instead of trying to figure it out alone, she invested in learning from someone already doing it. She reached out to Shannon for coaching, attended the Retreat Industry Forum in Denver, and ultimately booked Retreat Ranch for her upcoming retreats.   This episode isn't just about retreats.   It's about humility.   It's about investing in yourself.   It's about surrounding yourself with people who have already solved the problems you're trying to solve.   If you're an entrepreneur who wants to host retreats profitably, this conversation will encourage you to stop reinventing the wheel and start accelerating your growth.   In This Episode You'll Learn: Why successful entrepreneurs ask for help sooner rather than later How to turn retreats into recurring revenue Why adding retreats can strengthen your existing business The value of learning from experienced retreat leaders How coaching and proximity accelerate business growth Why getting in the room matters more than consuming content online The mindset shift that separates successful entrepreneurs from struggling ones Whether you're a coach, speaker, consultant, author, or entrepreneur exploring retreats as a new revenue stream, this episode offers practical wisdom that can save you years of trial and error.   What You'll Learn How to make money with retreats How to turn retreats into recurring revenue Why coaching accelerates business growth The power of mentorship and proximity Why entrepreneurs should invest in learning before launching retreats How to avoid common retreat mistakes Why asking for help is a business advantage-not a weakness Key Takeaways The Best Entrepreneurs Don't Go It Alone Successful business owners know they don't need to be the expert in everything.   They find people who already are.   Retreats Can Become a Powerful Revenue Stream   When done strategically, retreats don't just create unforgettable experiences-they can become a profitable extension of your existing business.   Learn From Someone Else's Mistakes   Experience is valuable. Borrowing someone else's experience is even more valuable.   Proximity Accelerates Growth   Books, podcasts, and courses are helpful.   But getting in the room with experienced entrepreneurs changes everything.   Retreats Should Support Your Business-Not Distract From It   The best retreat leaders don't create retreats because they're trendy.   They create them because they align with their expertise, audience, and long-term business strategy.   About Shari Leid   Shari Leid is an internationally recognized keynote speaker, author, entrepreneur, and founder dedicated to helping people create meaningful lives and businesses through connection, courage, and intentional growth.   As she expands her business to include memberships and transformational retreats, Shari demonstrates exactly what lifelong learning looks like: investing in mentorship, surrounding yourself with experts, and taking action.   Learn more at: SharileidShari Leid | Executive Coach & Speaker | Connection Expert   The Retreat Leaders Podcast Resources and Links: Join our Mastermind in Austin!

You've done the inner work, the retreats, the money mindset courses. So why isn't the money actually in the bank account? I keep noticing the same thing as I read through applications for our next Mastermind round. People have done the personal transformation. A lot of them have had successful careers and can absolutely make money. That was never the issue. The issue is that wealth still doesn't feel effortless, and the dollars still haven't landed. Here's what I see underneath it. Most people are not managing money to wealth. They are managing money to their identity. And most people are spending nearly all of their energetic currency on earning, with almost nothing left over for receiving. In this episode I walk through both, along with what came out of our first ever Mastermind alumni call, where I heard what happens to people years after the container ends. In this episode: Why income does not equal wealth, and what changes when you stop treating them as the same thing Managing money to your identity versus managing money to your wealth The receiving problem that shows up for creative, driven, high performing people Why getting outside of time is the prerequisite for receiving, and how waiting is lack energy Certainty as a creative force, and why uncertainty is the energetic equivalent of half in What I'm reading in the latest inflation and jobs numbers, and why positioning matters more than prediction Resources: The Spiritual Investor Mastermind opens its next round on September 1st.

Tune in to our weekly LIVE Mastermind Q+A Podcast for expert advice, peer collaboration, and actionable insights on success in the Probate, Divorce, Late Mortgage/Pre-Foreclosure, and Aged Expired niches! In this week's All The Leads Mastermind, the conversation focuses on the systems and habits that separate successful agents and investors from those who struggle to convert their leads. Bill Bird walks through his probate prospecting system, including organizing leads in a CRM, consistent mail and calls, long-term follow-up, market updates, and building a trusted network of service providers. The group also explores how conversations should change when working with sensitive situations like probate, divorce, and late mortgage, emphasizing empathy, asking the right questions, and building relationships rather than immediately pushing for a sale. The coaches also tackle call reluctance and why taking imperfect action is better than waiting for the perfect script or approach. Members share practical ways to get comfortable making calls, stay accountable, and continuously refine their systems. The episode wraps up with updates to Lazy Agent and a discussion of Probate Cash as another resource agents can offer families who may need access to funds during probate.Key Takeaways Build a system and work it consistently. Successful lead conversion comes from repeatable calls, mail, email, texts, and follow-up—not sporadic outreach.  Organize leads for long-term follow-up. Using a CRM to track where prospects are in the process makes consistent nurturing much easier.  Don't give up on older leads. Probate opportunities can convert six months, three years, or even longer after the first contact.  Adapt your conversation to the person and situation. Probate, divorce, and mortgage distress require empathy and a different approach than a typical sales call.  Build relationships instead of chasing a first-call close. Ask questions, uncover problems, and focus on what you can help someone accomplish next.  Don't let call reluctance stop you. You don't need the perfect script—having a genuine conversation and taking imperfect action beats making no call at all.  Give prospects more ways to solve their problems. Trusted service providers and resources like Probate Cash can differentiate you from someone who's only interested in the listing.  To learn more, visit https://www.AllTheLeads.com or call (844) 532-3369 to check how many leads are available in your market.  #ProbateRealEstate #RealEstateProspecting #LeadFollowUp #RealEstateLeads Previous episodes: AllTheLeads.com/probate-mastermindInterested in Leads?

Are you spending your time creating content or actually creating clients? In this episode, I explain why coaches often focus on websites, podcasts, programs, and content when what they really need to be doing is marketing and selling. I break down how these activities can feel productive while keeping you safely away from the work that directly creates clients.         I share why developing your body of work comes from coaching people, gaining experience, and deepening your own understanding over time. You'll hear why trying to create sophisticated content too early can lead to confusion and overwhelm, and why working with clients is what helps you develop your own ideas, methods, and style as a coach.        I also challenge you to look honestly at how much time you spend creating content versus creating clients. If you're not making the money you want, I want you to examine where your attention is going and whether you're willing to prioritize meeting people, building relationships, and making offers, even when those things feel more uncomfortable.                                                           If you want to start making serious money as a coach, you need to check out 2k for 2k.

10 creatives. 10 niches. 10 strategies that are producing real money right now.Sometimes growth comes from learning a new tool or a new trick. And sometimes the fastest thing you can do is look over the shoulder of someone a step ahead of you and see exactly what's working for them today.Most growth advice stays vague. Post more, stay consistent, raise your prices, good luck. So you end up testing something for six months before you ever find out whether it was going to work.The creatives who move fastest skip that part. They borrow what's already proven and run it in their own business.In this episode, we break down 10 Mastermind members across weddings, brand work, social media management, tourism, and outdoor content. Real names, real numbers, and the one specific move driving each of their businesses right now.You don't need to implement all ten.

In this episode of Meant to Win, Dr. Stephanie Wigner is fired up, recording hours after Dr. Nikki Cottis taught a masterclass for The Wealthy Practitioner, the first time in the company's history that a dollar got made without being attached to Stephanie's time and Stephanie's effort. Stephanie unpacks what full send season looks like on the other side of 200 days that felt like getting hit on the chin over and over: releasing the Practice Scaling Assessment, opening her custom AI coaching tool to people outside the Mastermind for the first time, and spending north of $450,000 to put 300 practitioners in a room in San Diego, a number she calls debilitating and is spending anyway because the woman she was two years ago wouldn't have. Then her son Jet, scared about going out on a fishing boat, laid in bed the night before and told her the best description of entrepreneurship she's ever heard: this whole side of my body is really scared and this whole side of my body is excited. Stephanie gets honest about what wealth actually means to her, and money is only part of it. Wealth is picking Jet up from camp in the golf cart and taking him for ice cream on a Friday afternoon. This episode is a call to every business owner stacking losses right now to stay true to what they came for, because it only takes one win to erase all of them.CHAPTERS:01:10 When Every Dollar Is Attached to Your Time01:49 The Assessment Built From 10 Years of Frameworks03:28 From Recalibration Season to Full Send04:07 300 Practitioners, San Diego, and a $450K Budget05:22 Jet and the Fishing Boat07:32 Scared and Excited in the Same Body08:07 The Real Texture of Building Something Worthwhile09:21 Five Days on Building a Wealthy Practice10:34 Why Wealth Is the Golf Cart and the Ice Cream12:14 200 Days of Losses and the One Win That Reset EverythingKey Takeaway: You don't need the losses to stop coming.

In this episode of The Modern Hairstylist Podcast, Hunter Donia and Jodie Brown get into one of the most exciting shifts Hunter has been making with his Mastermind and Modern Stylist Movement members over the past year: moving beyond using AI as a chatbot and actually putting it to work as a behind the scenes operator in your business.Hunter is clear that going back and forth with ChatGPT to make a caption is not what this episode is about. This is about what it looks like when AI is genuinely replacing labor, running automations, and doing things for you completely hands off so you can stay focused on the work that actually requires you.Key Takeaways:✍️ AI That Auto-Drafts And Posts Your Blog For You: Hunter walks through how his students have set up systems where AI pulls from their own content bank, writes a blog post on a consistent schedule, and either auto-posts it or sends a draft for a quick review before it goes live, and then automatically turns that blog post into a Google My Business update as well.⭐ Automated Review Responses That Sound Like You: Hunter breaks down how his students have set up automations that respond to five-star Google reviews within 12 hours without them lifting a finger, including smart filters that flag anything that needs a human response before anything goes out.
