In Part Two of Clint's conversation with Wes Adams – Founder & CEO of SV Consulting Group, researcher at the University of Pennsylvania's Positive Psychology Center, and co-author of “Meaningful Work” – Wes breaks down what actually creates high-performing teams and why trust, psychological safety, and communication matter more than most leaders realize.Wes explains how great teams encourage diverse ideas, why leaders need to create environments where people feel safe sharing bad news early, and how collaboration improves when teams adopt a “yes, and” mindset instead of shutting ideas down. He also discusses the importance of values-based hiring, intentional onboarding, and how organizations can build stronger cultures by aligning leadership behavior with company values.The conversation also explores the future of meaningful work in the age of AI, and why human skills like empathy, adaptability, strategic thinking, and communication are becoming more valuable, not less.This is the second part of a two-part conversation.Topics Covered:Why psychological safety drives team performanceThe connection between trust and accountabilityHow leaders create environments where people feel safe speaking upWhy teams perform better when diverse ideas are welcomedLessons leaders can learn from improv and the “yes, and” mindsetEncouraging participation from quieter or introverted team membersThe importance of equal airtime in meetingsWhy remote and hybrid teams require more intentional communicationHow to respond productively during conflict and disagreementThe PEAR model for handling difficult conversationsWhy character and values matter more than raw talent when hiringThe long-term impact of onboarding and first impressionsUsing positive feedback to reinforce high performanceHow meaningful work influences accountability and collaborationThe role of AI in reshaping work and leadershipWhy human skills are becoming even more valuable in an AI-driven worldLinks:Wes' LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/wesadams1/ Wes' book, “Meaningful Work” - https://amzn.to/430EmSa

That's your leader identity trying to get your attention underneath a pile of doing.In today's episode, I'm breaking apart the doer identity, the part of you that was built to be the reliable one, the one who got things done, the one who never let anything slip, and why that same part is now the ceiling you keep hitting.

And it might sting a little.Topics covered on Leader Identity:What is your calendar telling you about your leader identity right nowThe subconscious beliefs that made "doing more" feel like the only way to be valuedThe difference between a doer who fills every gap in their calendar vs a leader who protects CEO space on purposeHow to start building your CEO identity even if you don't have any team membersThe one identity shift that changes how you show up to your business every single dayWhy your CEO mindset is measured by intention, not by how many tasks you completedConnect with Rebecca Haydon:Apply to work with meThe Subconscious MembershipCome say hi on Instagram | Facebook | YouTubeRelated episodes you may enjoy:277.

You've defined your payoff. You know your math. You've identified your audience. You've picked your channel. Now what?Now you actually talk to people.This is Step 5 in our 7-part series on scaling your coaching business from one-to-one to one-to-many. And this is the step most coaches skip entirely, or confuse with selling. Connection is not selling. It is not coaching in the DMs. It is the contact sport that happens before any of that, and if it's not in your calendar, it's not happening.In this episode, Adam and Jess break down what real connection looks like, why active and passive approaches both work depending on who you are, and why the same tactics that filled your one-to-one roster will not fill a group.What You'll LearnWhy connection is Step 5 and not Step 2, and what goes wrong when coaches invert the orderThe difference between active connection (DMs, texts, outreach) and passive connection (email nurture, stages, podcasts) and why both are validWhy you should never sell or coach in the DMs during the connection phaseHow Jess grew her email list by 20% in a week and a half with two lead magnets and what that means for connection at scaleWhy 60-80% email open rates are possible when your nurture sequence is built rightWhat a weekly connection plan actually looks like in your calendarWhy the same connection approach that got you 10 one-to-one clients won't get you 100 group membersThe difference between one-to-one outreach and one-to-many connection systems and when to use eachWhy "systems are just the standards you live by" is the most important sentence in this episodeWhat's coming in Step 6: enrolling people into your offer without it feeling like a sales pitchTimestamps00:00 Welcome to Step 5: Connect00:54 Why connect comes after channel, not before02:06 Audience vs. connection: what the difference actually means03:47 Why coaches invert connect and audience and what it costs them04:42 The "build it and they will come" trap05:55 What active connection looks like in practice06:22 Active vs. passive connection: Adam vs. Jess approach07:38 The rule: never sell and never coach in the DMs09:26 How Jess grew her email list 20% in a week and a half10:19 Why open rates matter more than list size11:00 Why connection has to be in your calendar or it won't happen12:57 Systems are the standards you live by13:48 One-to-one connection vs. one-to-many connection systems14:37 Email, keynote speaking, and podcasting as passive one-to-many connection tools15:04 How the blueprint phases connect to this moment in your business17:15 Why 45-50 DMs in 90 minutes is a real time block, not a side hustle19:07 Why warming people through email first makes DM outreach more effective21:32 Connection needs a system, not a vibe23:53 Preview of Step 6: enrollingQuotes From This Episode"Once you've narrowed down with your math who you need to talk to and how you're going to talk to them, this episode is actually about talking to them. Order of operations, y'all." - Jess"This is the part of your coaching business where it's a contact sport. If you're not out making contacts, if your audience isn't big enough to support the vision you have, this is where you will fail." - Adam"Don't sell in the DMs. Don't coach in the DMs. The only thing you do in connection is connect." - Adam and Jess"Commitment is doing the thing you said you were going to do long after the original mood you set it in had left you." - Adam"Systems are just the standards you live by. If you don't have a system around connection, you have no standard for it. And that shows a lack of intentionality and care for the people you're trying to connect with." - Jess"The same things you are doing to fill your one-to-one will not fill your one-to-many. You need a strategy and a standard of connection consistently over time." - Jess"If it's not in the calendar, you guys, don't wing this part. A lot of us are really good wingers.

You won't find this KPI on any spreadsheet—but it might be the one thing that transforms your entire property management business.In today's episode of the Multifamily Collective, I'm pulling back the curtain on something crucial. Something that doesn't show up in your NOI calculations, your occupancy charts, or your lead conversion reports.We're talking about the human side of multifamily.When you reduce property management to pure transactions, you lose what really matters—connection. But what happens when you shift from extraction to contribution?Imagine two identical properties. Same amenities. Same rent rolls. Same zip code. The only difference? One is driven by transactional leadership. The other is driven by love, by care, and by purpose.Which one wins? Easy answer.In this video, you'll hear:Why NOI is just a trailing indicatorHow emotional leadership builds gravity for residents and team membersThe three real metrics every property leader should trackWhat it means to lead a mission—not a spreadsheetYour NOI?

Are you enjoying your friendships? Are you able to be present with your people and soak up your time together?So often, people focus on what's missing in their friendships. They have this idea of what “peak” friendship might look like, which gets in the way of being grateful for what is there. I'm here to remind you that there is a stark contrast between HAVING connections and ENJOYING them. And this isn't just regarding our closest friends: how grateful are you for the acquaintance at the coffee shop? For your child's teacher, your hair stylist, or the people you work with?Today I talk about what might be getting in the way of your enjoyment, and I offer tips on how to be more present and happy while with friends.In this episode you'll hear about:Mental chatter and the fear of being “too much” or “not worthy,” and how this limits enjoyment in our friendshipsFriendship baggage, anxiety about the future, and working on receiving connection, even just small gestures from community membersThe present distractions that get in the way of enjoying friendships (mostly, it's the phones)The idea of “storing up connection for later” and multitasking during friend time – and why this doesn't always workResources & LinksLike what you hear?

He encourages us to trust in the unfolding of our own unique journey, to lean into the discomfort of growth, and to remember that we are never alone in our healing.If you're feeling called to dive deeper into your own self-discovery journey, to break free from limiting patterns, and to create a life of greater alignment and authenticity, this episode will provide you with the inspiration and tools you need.

Join the Black Women Stitch PatreonAmazon Store Janet HensellJanet Hensell is a blogger who shares her handmade wardrobe and encourages others to sew and design their own style. She is best known as Miss J Sews, offering tips for setting trends and relying less on fast fashion. Her mom taught her to sew and they started off on dolly, but when she realized that she could make clothes that actually fit instead of always having to rely on shops, that was amazing. Lisa WoolforkLisa Woolfork is an associate professor of English specializing in African American literature and culture. Her teaching and research explore Black women writers, Black identity, trauma theory, and American slavery. She is the founder of Black Women Stitch, the sewing group where Black lives matter. She is also the host/producer of Stitch Please, a weekly audio podcast that centers on Black women, girls, and femmes in sewing. In the summer of 2017, she actively resisted the white supremacist marches in her community, Charlottesville, Virginia. The city became a symbol of lethal resurging white supremacist violence. She remains active in a variety of university and community initiatives, including the Community Engaged Scholars program. She believes in the power of creative liberation. Insights from this episode:Extending the life of a garment to last beyond the trendsPattern cutting: what it is, and making something fit well from the inside outHow Janet's fashion came to be the talk of her fellow jury membersThe inspiration behind the London Reign pattern, from the design to the nameThe importance of crafting as self-care Quotes from the show:“I'm kind of bootylicious in my figure, and they don't cater for that in the shops. But I can cater to myself if I sew, and that became the key thing. The feeling of making a thing that fits is unmatched.” – Janet Hensell, Stitch Please, Episode #191“It really is this vicious circle of consumption and discarding. Buy it, wear it, throw it away. And this is another thing that sewing can reduce. It is a form of sustainability because the pieces that you end up making, you tend to hold onto them longer.” – Lisa Woolfork, Stitch Please, Episode #191“Crafting is self-care. Whether you're a carpenter, a seamstress, a dancer, whatever you do for your mental health and fun, it is self-care. For me that was sewing.” – Janet Hensell, Stitch Please, Episode #191“Know what fits your lifestyle and fits your body. And when I say fit, know to fit your garments to fit you. Even if the garment is made from a cheaper fabric, once it fits you, people won't even notice.” – Janet Hensell, Stitch Please, Episode #191 Resources Mentioned:Stitch Please Podcast episode: Pattern Cutting Deconstructed with Monisola OmotosoLondon Reign pattern and discount code: STITCHPLEASE35 valid on the London Reign dress pattern for 35% off.

“Old” is not a bad word. Getting older is not scary. Forget college! 50+ is the real-time of your life! This episode is about to blow up all the preconceived notions you have about getting older. Process guest, Barby White, a member of our wise community, is coming on the podcast to inspire the hell out of every single one of us. When she started unapologetically putting herself first, her life transformed. Barby and Jessica cover topics we've never had the chance to discuss on this podcast. How do you transition from being a stay-at-home mom with 3 kids into being an empty nester who finds fulfillment in the role of being a mom? How do you find expanders who are over 50 (and probably not on social media)? How do you navigate the pervasive guilt of motherhood? They even talk about the ways ego may be secretly driving your manifestation, how being over 50 is actually awesome, and how pings can be delivering what seems to be the most mundane message (like: clean out your storage closet!). Everyone of all ages will get deep expansion from this episode. Huge thank you to Barby for opening her world to us! This is a good one, y'all.

It's time to talk about decision-making as a CEO. Should you be making all the decisions for your business, or is it time to start sharing that responsibility?The problem with holding on to all the decision-making is that it doesn't leave enough time for you to make the strategic, high-level decisions that move your business forward. This is something I struggled with early in my business, and I've come to realize that a lot of other business owners struggle with it too. Transitioning from an entrepreneur running the business day-to-day to a CEO who delegates day-to-day tasks is challenging but super important if you want your business to continue to grow. Let's get into it.In this episode, you'll learn:Why it's so hard to hand over decision-making What decisions you should hand off to other team membersThe importance of trust in your team members How to avoid micromanaging The type of decisions that a CEO is in charge ofWhy you need to make time for strategic, high-level decision-making What you should be focusing on as a CEO How to decide what decisions to delegate How to empower your team to take ownership and make decisionsWhy you need to set clear expectations and deadlines Links & Resources:The Art of Online Business websiteDM me on InstagramVisit my YouTube channelThe Art of Online Business clips on YouTubeFull episodes of The Art of Online Business Podcast on YouTubeThe Art of Online Business Podcast websiteCheck out my Accelerator coaching program*Disclosure: I only recommend products I use and love and all opinions expressed here are my own.
