How Do I Get Results How often do you find yourself hearing the same advice again and again—through podcasts, books, conversations, or even a random TikTok—and thinking “I know this already…” but then quietly adding “…but I'm not doing it.” That's exactly what this episode is about. I'll share with you: Why repetition matters (and why advice keeps showing up until you take action). The real secret to results: showing up, doing the reps, and letting go of perfection. How “practice makes permanent,” not perfect. Why intention and consistency beat intensity every single time. A simple way to choose one thing that could change everything in your life. This isn't about waiting for motivation. It's about turning up, committing to the process, and making deposits in your “success bank.” Some days will feel great, others won't—but both move you forward. At the end, I'll even share how you can use my free hypnosis resources to build confidence, consistency, and unstoppable momentum. Listen in—then ask yourself: what's the one thing you'll commit to showing up for over the next 10 days? and share the hell out of this episode https://personaldevelopmentunplugged.com/465-how-do-i-get-results/

The transcript may contain errors and is not a substitute for listening to the episode. Christopher S. Penn – 00:00 In this week’s *In-Ear Insights*. Another week, another gazillion posts on LinkedIn and various social networks about the ultimate ChatGPT prompt. OpenAI, of course, published its Prompt Blocks library of hundreds of mediocre prompts that are particularly unhelpful. And what we’re seeing in the AI industry is this: A lot of people are stuck and focused on how do I prompt ChatGPT to do this, that, or the other thing, when in reality that’s not where the value is. Today, let’s talk about where the value of generative AI actually is, because a lot of people still seem very stuck on the 101 basics. And there’s nothing wrong with that—that is totally great—but what comes after it? Christopher S. Penn – 00:47 So, Katie, from your perspective as someone who is not the propeller head in this company and is very representative of the business user who wants real results from this stuff and not just shiny objects, what do you see in the Generative AI space right now? And more important, what do you see it’s missing? Katie Robbert – 01:14 I see it’s missing any kind of strategy, to be quite honest. The way that people are using generative AI—and this is a broad stroke, it’s a generalization—is still very one-off. Let me go to ChatGPT to summarize these meeting notes. Let me go to Gemini to outline a blog post. There is nothing wrong with that, but it’s not a strategy; it’s one more tool in your stack. And so the big thing that I see missing is, what are we doing with this long term? Katie Robbert – 01:53 Where does it fit into the overall workflow and how is it actually becoming part of the team? How is it becoming integrated into the organization? So, people who are saying, “Well, we’re sitting down for our 2026 planning, we need to figure out where AI fits in,” I think you’re already setting yourself up for failure because you’re leading with AI needs to fit in somewhere versus you need to lead with what do we need to do in 2026, period? Chris has brought up the 5P Framework, which is 100% where I’m going to recommend you start. Start with the purpose. So, what are your goals? What are the questions you’re trying to answer? How are you trying to grow and scale? And what are the KPIs that you want to be thinking about in 2026? Katie Robbert – 02:46 Notice I didn’t say with AI. Leave AI out of it for now. For now, we’ll get to it. So what are the things that you’re trying to do? What is the purpose of having a business in 2026? What are the things you’re trying to achieve? Then you move on to people. Well, who’s involved? It’s the team, it’s the executives, it’s the customers. Don’t forget about the customers because they’re kind of the reason you have a business in the first place. And figure out what all of those individuals bring to the table. How are they going to help you with your purpose and then the process? How are we going to do these things? So, in order to scale the business by 10x, we need to bring in 20x revenue. Katie Robbert – 03:33 In order to bring in 20x revenue, we need to bring in 30x visits to the website. And you start to go down that road. That’s sort of your process. And guess what? We haven’t even talked about AI yet, because it doesn’t matter at the moment. You need to get those pieces figured out first. If we need to bring in 30x the visits to the website that we were getting in the previous year, how do we do that? What are we doing today? What do we need to do tomorrow? Okay, we need to create content, we need to disseminate it, we need to measure it, we need to do this. Oh, maybe now we can think about platforms. That’s where you can start to figure out where in this does AI fit? Katie Robbert – 04:12 And I think that’s the piece that’s missing: people are jumping to AI first and not why the heck are we doing this. So that is my long-winded rant. Chris, I would love to hear your perspective. Christopher S. Penn – 04:23 Perspective specific to AI. Where people are getting tripped up is in a couple different areas. The biggest at the basic level is a misunderstanding of prompting. And we’re going to be talking about this. You’ll hear a lot about this fall as we are on the conference circuit. Prompting is like a recipe. So you have a recipe for baking beef Wellington, what have you. The recipe is not the most important part of the process. It’s important. Winging it, particularly for complex dishes, is not a good idea unless you’ve done it a million times before. The most important part is things like the ingredients. You can have the best recipe in the world; if you have no ingredients, you ain’t eating. That’s pretty obvious. Christopher S. Penn – 05:15 And yet so many people are so focused on, “Oh, I’ve got to have the perfect prompt”—no, you don’t. You need to have good ingredients to get value. So, let’s say you’re doing 2026 strategic planning and you go to the AI to say, “I need to work on my strategic plan for 2026.” They will understand generally what that means because most models are reasoning models now. But if you provide no data about who you are, what you do, how you’ve done it, your results before, who your competitors are, who your customers are, all the 10 things that you need to do strategic planning like your budget, who’s involved, the Five Ps—basically AI won’t be able to help you any better than you will or that your team will. It’s a waste of time. Christopher S. Penn – 06:00 For immediate value unlocks for AI, it starts with the right ingredients, with the right recipe, and your skills. So that should sound an awful lot like people, process, and platform. I call it Generative AI 102. If 101 is, “How do I prompt?” 102 is, “What ingredients need to go with my prompt to get value out of them?” But then 201 is—and this is exactly what you started off with, Katie—one-off interactions with ChatGPT don’t scale. They don’t deliver value because you, the human, are still typing away like a little monkey at the keyboard. If you want value from AI, part of its value comes from saving time, saving money, and making money. Saving time means scale—doing things at scale—which means you need to connect your AI to other systems. Christopher S. Penn – 06:59 You need to plug it into your email, into your CRM, into your DSP. Name the technology platform of your choice. If you are still just copy-pasting in and out of ChatGPT, you’re not going to get the value you want because you are the bottleneck. Katie Robbert – 07:16 I think that this extends to the conversations around agentic AI. Again, are you thinking about it as a one-off or are you thinking about it as a true integration into your workflow? Okay, so I don’t want to have to summarize meeting notes anymore. So let me spend a week building an agent that’s going to do that for me. Okay, great. So now you have an agent that summarizes your meeting notes and doesn’t do anything else. So now you have to, okay, what else do I want it to do? And you start frankensteining together all of these one-off tasks until you have 100 agents to do 100 things versus maybe one really solid workflow that could have done a lot of things and have less failure points. Katie Robbert – 08:00 That’s really what we’re talking about. When you’re short-sighted in thinking about where generative AI fits in, you introduce even more failure points in your business—your operations, your process, your marketing, whatever it is. Because you’re just saying, “Okay, I’m going to use ChatGPT for this, and I’m going to use Gemini for this, and I’m going to use Claude for this, and I’m use Google Colab for this.” Then it’s just kind of all over the place. Really, what you want to have is a more thoughtful, holistic, documented plan for where all these pieces fit in. Don’t put AI first. Think about your goals first. And if the goal is, “We want to use AI,” it’s the wrong goal. Start over. Christopher S. Penn – 08:56 Unless that’s literally your job. Katie Robbert – 09:00 But that would theoretically tie to a larger business goal. Christopher S. Penn – 09:05 It should. Katie Robbert – 09:07 So what is the larger business goal that you’ve then determined? This is where AI fits in. Then you can introduce AI. A great way to figure that out is a user story. A user story is a simple three-part sentence: As a [Persona], I want [X], so that [Y]. So, as the lead AI engineer, I want to build an AI agent. And you don’t stop there. You say, “So that we can increase our revenue by 30x,” or, “Find more efficiencies and cut down the amount of time that it takes to create content.” Too many people, when we are talking about where people are getting generative AI wrong, stop at the “want to” and they put the period there. They forget about the “so that.” Katie Robbert – 09:58 And the “so that” arguably is the most important part of the user story because it gives you a purpose, it gives you a performance metric. So the Persona is the people, the “want to” is the process and the platform. The “so that” is the purpose and the performance. Christopher S. Penn – 10:18 When you do that, when you start thinking about the purpose, it will hint at the platforms that have to be involved. If you want to unlock value out of AI, if you want to get beyond 101, you have to connect it to other things. A real simple example: Say you’re in sales. Where does all the data that you’d want AI to use live? It doesn’t live in ChatGPT; it lives in your CRM. So the first and most important thing that you would have to figure out is, “As a salesperson, I want to increase my closing rate by 10% so that I get 10% more money.” That’s a pretty solid user story. Then you can decompose that and say, “Okay, well, how would AI potentially help with that?” Well, it could identify maybe next best actions on my… Christopher S. Penn – 11:12 …on the deals that are in my pipeline. Maybe I’ve forgotten something. Maybe something fell through the cracks. How do I do that? So you would then revise the user story: “As a salesperson who wants to make more money, I want to identify the next best actions for the deals in my pipeline programmatically so that I don’t let something fall through the cracks that could make me a bunch of money.” Then you drill down further and you say, “Okay, well, how could AI help me with that?” Well, if you have your Sales Playbook, you have your CRM data, and you have a good agentic framework, you could say, “Agent, go get me one of my deals at a time from my CRM, take my Sales Playbook, interrogate it and say, ‘Hey, Sales Playbook, here’s my deal. What should my next best action be?'” Christopher S. Penn – 11:59 If you’ve done a good job with your Sales Playbook and you’ve got battle cards and all that stuff in there, the AI will pretty easily figure out, “Oh, this deal is in this state. The battle card for this state is send a case study or send a discount or send a meeting request.” Then the AI has to go back to its agent and say, “CRM, record a task for me. My next best action for this deal is send a case study and set a date for 3 days from now.” Now, you’ve taken the user story, drilled down. You found a place where AI fits in and can do that work so that you don’t have to. Because a human could do that work. And a human should know what’s in your Sales Playbook. Christopher S. Penn – 12:48 But let’s be honest, if you do a really good job with the Sales Playbook, it might be 300 pages long. But in the system now, you’re connecting AI to and from where all the knowledge lives and saying, “This is the concrete, tangible outcome I want: I want to know what the next best action is for every deal in my pipeline so that I can make more money.” Katie Robbert – 13:10 I would argue that even if your sales book is 200 pages long, you should still kind of know how you’re selling things. Christopher S. Penn – 13:19 Should. Katie Robbert – 13:21 But that’s the thing: to get more value out of generative AI, you have to know the thing first. So, yeah, generative AI can give you suggestions and help you brainstorm. But really, it comes down to what you know. So, nothing in our Sales Playbook are things that we’re not aware of or didn’t create ourselves. Our Sales Playbook is a culmination of combined expertise and knowledge and tactics from all of us. If I read through—and I have read through—but if I read through the entire Sales Playbook, nothing should jump out at me as, “Huh, that’s new.” Katie Robbert – 13:58 I wasn’t aware of that. I think the other side of the coin is, yes, we’re doing these one-off things with generative AI, but we’re also just accepting the output as is. We’re, “Okay, so that must be it.” When we’re thinking about getting more value, the value, Chris, to your point, is if you’re not giving the system all of the ingredients, you’re going to end up with a beef Wellington that’s made with chickpeas and glue and maybe a piece of cheesecloth. I’m waiting for you to try to wrap your head around that. Christopher S. Penn – 14:45 Yeah, no, that sounds horrible. Katie Robbert – 14:48 Exactly. That’s exactly the point: the value you get out of generative AI. It goes back to the data quality conversation we were having on last week’s podcast when we were talking about the LinkedIn paper. It’s not enough just to accept the output and clean it from there. If you spent the time to make a beef Wellington and the meat is overdone, or the pastry is not flaky, or the filling is too salty, and you’re trying to correct those things after the fact, you’re already too late. You can maybe kind of mask it a little bit, maybe add a couple of things to counterbalance whatever it is that went wrong. But it really starts at the beginning of what you’re putting into it. Katie Robbert – 15:39 So maybe don’t be so heavy-handed with the salt, maybe don’t overwork the dough so that it is actually more flaky and more like a pastry dough than a pizza dough. Christopher S. Penn – 15:52 I’m really hungry now. In 2026, I do think one of the things that marketers are going to get their hands around—and everybody using generative AI—is how agents play a role in what you do because they are the connectors to other systems. And if you’re not familiar with how agentic AI works, it’s going to be a handicap. In the same way that if you’re not familiar with how ChatGPT itself works, it’s going to be a handicap, and you still have to master the basics. We’ve always talked about the three levels: done by you, which is prompting; done with you, which is mini automations like Gems and GPTs; and then done for you as agents. I think people have kind of at least figured out done by you, give or take. Christopher S. Penn – 16:41 Yes, there’s still a lot of crappy prompts out there, but for the most part people don’t need to be told what a prompt is anymore. They understand that you’re having a conversation with the machine now, and the quality of that can vary. People are starting to wrap their heads around the GPT kind of thing: “Let me make a mini app for this.” And there’s a bunch of things that I see wrong there: “I’m just going to make this my primary workhorse.” No, it doesn’t have the context, doesn’t have the ingredients to do that. But getting to that level of the agent is where I think at least the forward-looking companies need to get to, to get that value sooner rather than later. Christopher S. Penn – 17:20 This past year in 2025, we have built probably two dozen agentic systems, which is nothing more than an AI wrapped around a whole bunch of code connecting to data sources. We’ve used it to build ICPs, to evaluate landing pages, to do sentiment analysis—all these different projects because some of them are really crazy. But the key for the value was connecting to those systems. Christopher S. Penn – 17:49 That’s the really difficult part because—and we have a whole thing about this if you want to chat about it—we have a data quality audit. The moment you start connecting to your systems, you now need to know that the data going in and out of those systems is good. If the ingredients are bad, to your point, it doesn’t matter how good a cook you are, it doesn’t matter what appliances you own, doesn’t matter how good the recipe is. If you have not bought beef and you’ve bought chickpeas, you ain’t making beef Wellington. Katie Robbert – 18:27 Side note: I have made a vegetarian beef Wellington with chickpeas, and it actually came out pretty good. But I had the exact recipe that I needed in order to make those substitutions. And I went into the process knowing that my output wasn’t actually going to be a beef Wellington; it was going to be a chickpea Wellington. I think that’s also part of it—the expectation setting. AI can do a lot with crappy ingredients, but not if you don’t tell it what it’s supposed to be doing. So if you say, “I’m making a beef Wellington, here’s chickpeas,” it’s going to be, “I guess I can do that.” Katie Robbert – 19:13 But if you’re saying, “I’m making a chickpea loaf covered in puff pastry and a mushroom filling,” it’s, “Oh, I can totally do that,” because there was no mention of beef, and now I don’t have the context that I’m supposed to be doing anything with beef. So it’s the ingredients, but it’s also the critical thinking of what is it that you’re trying to do in the first place. Katie Robbert – 19:34 That goes back to this is where people aren’t getting the right value out of generative AI because they’re just doing these one-off things and they’re not giving it the context that it needs to actually do something. And then it’s not integrated into the business as a whole. It’s just, Chris is over there using generative AI to make songs. But that has nothing to do with what Trust Insights does on a day-to-day basis. So that’s never going to make us any money. He’s spending the time and the resources. This is all fictional. He doesn’t actually spend company time doing this. Christopher S. Penn – 20:09 I spent a lot of time personally. Katie Robbert – 20:10 Doing this, and that’s fine. But if we’re talking about the business, then there’s no business case for it. You haven’t gone through the Five Ps. Katie Robbert – 20:20 To say this is where this particular thing fits into the business overall. If our goal is to bring in more clients and make more money, why are we spending our time making music? Christopher S. Penn – 20:32 Exactly. As we have this conversation, it occurs to me that in 2026 we are probably going to need to put together an agentic AI course because the roadmap to get there is very difficult if you don’t know what you’re doing. You will potentially do things like, oh, I don’t know, accidentally give AI access to your production database and then it deletes it because it thinks it didn’t need it. Which happened to someone on the Replit repository not too long ago. Katie Robbert – 21:04 Whoops. Christopher S. Penn – 21:08 This is why we do git commits and rollbacks and we use sandbox AI. If you are in a position where you are saying, “I’ve got the 101 down and now I’m stuck. I don’t know where to go next,” the three things that you should be looking at: Number one is the Five Ps to figure out what you should be doing, period. Number two is a data quality audit to make sure that the data you’re feeding into AI is going to be any good. Number three is taking the agentic systems that are out there to connect them to your good quality data for the right purpose, with the right performance, so that you can scale the use of AI beyond being your ChatGPT’s intern. That’s what you are. Katie Robbert – 21:58 Chris, I don’t know if you know this, but we have a course that actually walks you through a lot of those things. You can go to Trust Insights AI strategy course. To be clear, this specific course doesn’t teach you how to use AI. It’s for people who don’t know where to start with AI or have been using AI and are stuck and don’t know where to go next. So, for example, if you’re doing your 2026 planning and you’re, “I think we need to introduce agentic AI.” Christopher S. Penn – 22:33 Cool. Katie Robbert – 22:34 I would highly recommend using the tools that you learn in this course to figure out, “Do I need to do that? Where does it fit? Who needs to do it? How are we going to maintain it? What is the goal of putting agentic AI in other than just putting it on our website and saying, ‘We do it’?” That would be my recommendation: take our AI strategy course to figure out what to do next. Chris, where we started with this conversation was, how do people get more value out of AI? So, Chris, congratulations. Chris is an AI ready strategist. Katie Robbert – 23:14 We’re very proud of him. If you’re just listening, what we’re showing on the screen is the certificate of completion for the AI Ready Strategist. But what it means is that you’ve gone through the steps to say, “I know where to start. If I’m stuck, I know how to get unstuck.” Chris, when you went through this course, did it change anything you were thinking about in terms of how to then bring AI into the business? Christopher S. Penn – 23:42 Yes. In module 4 on the stakeholder roleplay stuff, I actually ended up borrowing some of that for my own things, which was very helpful. Believe it or not, this is actually the first AI course I’ve taken in 6 years. Katie Robbert – 23:58 I’m going to take that as a very high compliment. Christopher S. Penn – 24:01 Exactly. Katie Robbert – 24:04 What Chris is referring to: part of the challenge of getting the value out of AI is convincing other people that there is value in it. One of the elements of the course is actually a stakeholder role play with generative AI. Basically, you can say, “This is what I want to do.” And it will simulate talking to your stakeholder. If your stakeholder is saying, “Okay, I need to know this, this, and this.” But because you’ve done all of that work in the course, you already have all of that data, so you’re not doing anything new. You’re saying, “Oh, here’s that information. Here, let me serve it up to you.” Katie Robbert – 24:41 So it’s an easy yes. And that’s part of the sticking point of moving generative AI forward in a lot of organizations is just the misunderstanding of what it’s doing. Christopher S. Penn – 24:52 Exactly. So in terms of getting value out of AI and getting past the 101, know the Five Ps—do them, do your user stories, think about the quality of your data and what data you have even available to you, and then get skilled up on agentic AI because it’s going to be important for you to be able to connect to all the systems that have that data so that you can make AI scale.

Acting As If Without The Fake Welcome back to another Five Minute Quickie! You've probably heard the phrase “fake it till you make it”—but let's be honest, it feels like a lie, doesn't it? That's because it is. When you try to copy someone else—how they walk, talk, or behave—you're not acting as if, you're acting as them. And deep down, you know it. You can't fool yourself. So what's the real power behind acting as if? It's stepping into the version of you who has already achieved your goal. Not pretending, not faking—just allowing that future you to live in the present. That's when you tap into the physiology and psychology of success. In this short FMQ, I'll share why “acting as if” works, why faking never does, and how to make it real so you can accelerate your goals, your dreams, and your enjoyment of the journey.

In her book, Sarma tells her story of how a successful businesswoman, co-founder and owner of the acclaimed NYC restaurant Pure Food and Wine and the brand One Lucky Duck, could fall for a con artist using a fictitious name, a covert backstory, and fantastical promises. Humans are social beings, and it's that social aspect that manipulative and abusive characters can learn to exploit for their self-interest. With an increase in online dating and social media, individuals can be exploited relatively easily without knowing who they are really speaking to. Predators can create false identities. They can also buy profile data on a potential victim they wish to exploit. In addition, some unethical people earn money by teaching men how to manipulate women online using neurolinguistic programming (NLP) / hypnosis. With behind-the-times laws on recognizing and prosecuting coercive control in relationships, often victims like Sarma are blamed for criminal actions occurring as a result of abuse. Sarma Melngailis recounts her side of this traumatic story, ultimately culminating in her imprisonment on Rikers Island. She hopes that people who read her book will gain a better understanding of what happened to her and use it to warn others of their own vulnerability to online predators. She wanted to correct the story told in the Netflix documentary “Bad Vegan: Fame. Fraud. Fugitives.” Exploitative documentaries are often inaccurate, leading to media distortion and public shaming of the survivor.Yes, folks- There ARE one on one cults! Fascinating story.

We've all seen the programs promising to “fix” your money mindset. But are they truly helping women step into power, or just selling us the same story in a shinier package? In this conversation with Suzanne Longstreet, master mindset coach, NLP trainer, and co-author of The Millionaire Codes, I ask the questions many of us are secretly thinking: ✨ Do women actually need more money mindset coaching, or do we need a new system altogether? ✨ How much of our struggle is “limiting beliefs” vs. systemic barriers like patriarchy and pay inequity? ✨ Why confidence often trumps competence in the workplace (and how that leads to narcissistic leaders). ✨ What it takes to stop apologizing, start owning your authority, and rewrite the rules of leadership. This one gets real. I bring the spice, Suzanne brings the strategies, and together we unpack what it really means for women to lead, earn, and receive with clarity and confidence.
On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty and guest Doug O'Brien—master storyteller, hypnotherapist, bestselling author, and NLP trainer—break down how our inner narratives drive mental and emotional health. Doug explains the structure of beliefs (cause → effect → meaning), how NLP, hypnosis, and Havening Techniques interrupt limiting patterns, and why rapid change is possible when we learn to reframe, reprogram, and retell our story. Practical tools include morning questions, state management, and belief reframes (Sleight of Mouth). About the guest : Doug O'Brien is a hypnotherapist, international NLP trainer, and author of The User's Guide to Storytelling and The User's Guide to Sleight of Mouth. He teaches practical neuro-linguistic methods, hypnosis, and Havening to help people shift beliefs and behavior effectively. Key takeaways: Your story shapes your state. We live inside inner representations; narratives can be chains or catalysts for change. Beliefs have structure. Most beliefs follow cause → effect → meaning; change the linkage and you change the belief. Name it to change it. First step: realize “it's a story,” not absolute reality—then author a better one. NLP is a user manual for the brain. Understand your “neuro-linguistics,” and you can reprogram patterns toward desired outcomes. Morning Questions reset focus. Ask: What am I happy/excited/grateful for? Why? How does it feel? Attention directs state; state drives behavior. Havening for trauma. As a psychosensory method, Havening supports safety and can facilitate rapid, lasting change for encoded traumatic responses. Self-work vs. professional help. Many shifts are DIY; for legitimate trauma, work with trained practitioners. Evidence through examples. Compare yourself to role models who share your traits; swap limiting labels for empowering identities. Rapid change is possible. Challenge the story that “change takes years.” With the right tool and readiness, breakthroughs can be immediate. Storytelling persuades. Whether with kids, teams, or audiences, clear stories engage imagination and drive behavior.

We all carry memories that weigh us down, sometimes making it difficult to achieve the health, wealth, or relationships we desire. What amazed us is how NLP provides a hands-on toolkit to reframe those difficult experiences and actually turn them into profound sources of inner strength. Sabeena shows us that NLP isn't just theory; it's a practical method for changing how you think, feel, and act. In this transformative conversation, we explore:

Text us your feedback on this episodeWhat if the key to bigger impact isn't more grind...but more presence? Michael, a restaurateur known for bright, welcoming spaces and lines-out-the-door brunch, shares how a guest-first mindset and a hard reset on his personal life transformed everything. He didn't come up through the back of house; he walked in focused on why people gather. That outsider perspective became his advantage as he built restaurants where safety, care, and connection are the main ingredients...and where the design, the energy, and the food all invite you to feel at home.We explore leadership that humanizes hospitality, technology that frees up time for real service, and a simple mission that guides every decision: live healthy and long to be a beacon for the people you love. Michael also offers a framework for modern masculinity...“dangerous and kind”...strong enough to protect, soft enough to connect.

I went VIRAL! I've been talking about entrepreneurship and the alcohol-free lifestyle on social media for years, but recently, something I said hit a deep chord: The universe hand-selected you to ditch alcohol because of how massive your purpose on this planet is. Something in those words clicked for thousands of women — and honestly, I get it. Most women who feel called to this path are visionaries who know they're meant for something bigger. Before I quit drinking 7 years ago, I constantly battled writer's block, but the moment I took a break, it was like a creative floodgate burst open of ideas, inspiration, and energy. In this episode, you'll discover how that decision unlocks life-changing gifts, from the obvious (like glowing health and renewed energy) to the unexpected (a deep well of confidence and razor-sharp intuition)! Gorgeous, you KNOW you were made for more. If going alcohol-free has awakened something powerful in you, it's because you're meant to guide others too. Join the next round of the Empowered AF 5X Coach Certification Program. IN THIS EPISODE: Why I believe the universe hand selects certain women to reevaluate alcohol (because their purpose is colossal and world-changing!)

Keeping Your Sh*t Together in a Stressed World with Michelle & Scott
Episode 286 - "Boundaries Are Love, Not Rejection"We've been taught to see boundaries as walls—barriers that push people away. But what if we reframed them as acts of love? In this episode, Michelle and Scott dive into the power of boundaries as clarity and compassion. Saying “no” isn't rejection; it's an act of honesty that creates safer, healthier spaces for both you and the people you care about. Together, they explore why boundaries are essential for emotional well-being, how to set them without guilt, and why honoring your limits is one of the most loving things you can do—for yourself and others.Keeping Your Sh*t Together in a Stressed World is a podcast hosted by Michelle Post, MA, LMFT and Scott Grossberg, JD, CLC, CCH, NLP, and is 30 minutes of raw, irreverent, and results-oriented discussion with one purpose in mind . . . to help you cope, thrive, and survive the craziness that's going on in the world.As a reminder, our “Get Your Sh*t Together” Home Retreat can be found here:http://thinkingmagically.com/retreatReplays of prior episodes can be found at:https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/scott-grossbergYou can also join our Facebook group:https://www.facebook.com/groups/keepingystMichelle Post can be reached at michelle@postinternationalinc.com http://postinternationalinc.com Scott Grossberg can be reached at sgrossberg@hotmail.com https://www.thinkingmagically.com© ℗ 2025 Scott Grossberg & Michelle Post.

Do you think there's any connection between the MK-Ultra experiments and modern marketing methods, especially the ones that have a background in NLP. Okay. Number one, I don't know...
[EXPERT VOICES, UNFILTERED] If you've ever thought “I just need a new strategy,” this one's for you. Rachel Joy (NLP trainer, hypnotherapist, and creator of Neuro Recode™) breaks down why your identity and subconscious beliefs set your income ceiling—not your content calendar. We dig into the science (in plain English), how to spot when it's an identity issue vs. a strategy tweak, and practical ways to shift fast without white-knuckling your way through affirmations. What you'll learn Identity before strategy: Why your self-image and values dictate results (and how that shows up on camera, in copy, and in sales). Subconscious 101 for entrepreneurs: Deleting/distorting/generalizing, why “don't think of a purple tree” never works, and how to speak to your brain so it listens. Belief → behavior → bank account: How tonality + physiology (not just words) make your content “stick.” Capacity & seasonality: Building a business that matches your energy (especially for moms / multi-business owners). Comparison detox: Simple ways to put on blinders, stop timeline pressure, and regain conviction. Tools that actually help: Gentle affirmations that land, exposure therapy done right, hypnosis/NLP for quicker identity shifts. Quotables “It's all working—and it's all not working. It works to the extent you believe it will.” “Words are only 7% of communication. Tonality and physiology sell your offer before your CTA does.” “Impatience is one of the biggest blocks to your success. You can't rush identity.” “If I'm going to get there anyway, why stress about the timeline?” Rachel's Links: →Join NeuroRecode Top Coach Training: https://theracheljoy.systeme.io/topcoachcode →Get the Confident Coach Hypno Bundle: https://www.theracheljoy.com/confidentcoach →Connect with Rachel on Instagram: @theracheljoy1 Meg's Links: →Discover how to craft a powerful business origin story that sets you apart, builds trust, and inspires clients to work with you: https://meganyelaney.com/business-story-blueprint →Connect with Meg on Instagram: @meganyelaney
Hi friend — welcome back to The Habit Within! I'm Camille Kinzler, and today's episode is a little different — because I'm pulling back the curtain and sharing the 10 shifts that completely changed my life back in 2018.At that time, I was burned out, overwhelmed, and living on autopilot. I was overworking, over-giving, and running on empty. What followed was a total 180 — a series of choices, both big and small, that moved me out of survival mode and into alignment.These shifts are the foundation of why I do what I do today, and why I know change doesn't always have to be slow.

On Healthy Waves, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Dr. Albert Bramante—veteran talent agent, PhD in psychology, certified hypnotist, and NLP practitioner—to break down how the story you tell yourself shapes mental health and performance. From limiting beliefs and the inner critic to practical mindset tools like reframing, hypnosis, and NLP, Albert explains how identity shifts fuel results for actors, CEOs, and high achievers alike. You'll learn the difference between healthy challenge (eustress) and toxic stress, how to spot early warning signs, and how to build daily systems that drive sustainable success without burnout. Direct, actionable, and grounded—this conversation helps you rewrite your inner narrative so you can perform with authenticity and balance. About the guest : Dr. Albert Bramante is a long-time talent agent with 20+ years in TV, film, and theater. He also holds a PhD in psychology, is a certified hypnotist, and an NLP practitioner. He helps actors and high-performing professionals dismantle self-sabotage, shift identity, and perform with confidence. Key takeaways: Your self-story drives outcomes: Internal narratives formed in childhood (criticism vs. celebration) shape beliefs, identity, and mental health. Identity shift > willpower: Recast yourself as a survivor, not a victim to unlock resilient behavior and better performance. Reframing works: Tools from hypnosis/NLP help reframe events, reduce the inner critic, and enable authentic delivery in high-stakes moments (e.g., auditions, boardrooms). Eustress vs. distress:Eustress (a focused, time-bound arousal) boosts performance; toxic stress lingers and disrupts sleep, breathing, and eating patterns. Spot stress early: Persistent hypervigilance, irregular sleep, and appetite shifts are cautions that coping systems need attention. Action builds confidence: Consistent, small steps with feedback loops (“fail forward”) develop durable competence and calm. Balance prevents burnout: Maintain outside interests and supportive routines to counter high-judgment environments. Mind–body is one system: Mental stress elevates cortisol, impacting the body; physical and mental practices (mindfulness, movement, breathwork) should work together. Translate strengths across domains: Map your existing professional gravitas to new performance contexts to accelerate wins. Make it practical: Label emotions, reframe limits, set growth-mindset systems, and review results weekly.
