She remains laser-focused on building wealth and opportunity in communities that have been historically underserved.

In this episode I unpack what actually leads to change. Not the hot takes and talking points that get clicks, but the quiet work of finding common ground, choosing curiosity, and having real one on one conversations. I share why telling someone they are wrong rarely shifts anything, how nuance gets lost when everything is framed as us versus them, and why I aim my message at people who are open to dialogue.We talk about applying this to fitness and weight loss, then carrying it into the rest of life. I explain how mindful consumption of content matters, how I approach differing views without debate, and why self appreciation is the only absolute I push. If we can connect on one shared value, we can start listening to each other everywhere else. That is where change begins.In This Episode• Why common ground beats winning arguments.• The power of one on one conversation for real change.• Letting go of absolutes to make room for nuance and context.• Mindful content consumption and how it shapes your outlook.• Self appreciation as the foundation for sustainable growth.I want to hear your perspective.

You can teach people all the speaking skills in the world, but if they don't care about the other people in the room or don't think there's a possibility they aren't perfectly right, it won't take.

Click here now to access the tool > ‍ How to Grow a Business You Love by Serving the Right People at the Right Value Does it ever seem like you're giving everything to your business, yet the success you pictured still feels just out of reach? In this episode of The Brilliant Book Festival, I'm joined by Mike Michalowicz, author of nine business books including Profit First and The Pumpkin Plan, to explore how entrepreneurs can escape what he calls “entrepreneurial poverty” and create a business that runs smoothly, profitably and in alignment with their strengths. Mike shares why the secret to growth isn't serving everyone, but identifying the right clients, pricing in a way that reflects your true value, and letting go of the rest (without guilt). We talk about why bad-fit clients drain more than your bank account, how to attract people who value what you offer, and why you should always love yourself enough to charge what you're worth. If you've been caught in the cycle of over-delivering, undercharging, and feeling too stretched to serve your best clients well, this conversation will help you see a simpler, more sustainable path forward - one that makes space for better clients, better work and a better life. ‍ ‍ Prefer to WATCH instead of read? Click here to watch this episode on YouTube ‍ ‍ “Price is the ultimate marketing method. It tells the world how valuable you believe your work is.” – Mike Michalowicz ‍ ‍ Why Pricing is More Than a Number Most entrepreneurs fear raising prices, but as Mike explains, pricing isn't just about covering costs. It's a signal to the market about the quality and impact of your work. When you charge appropriately, you attract clients who align with your value, and you create the capacity to serve them at your best. ‍ ‍ Letting Go of the Wrong Clients It's tempting to hold on to every paying client, but the wrong ones cost far more than they contribute. Mike shares strategies for identifying unfit clients, and how to release them in a way that's professional, kind, and freeing - making space for your business to grow in the right direction. ‍ ‍ “Your best business will always grow from your best clients. Focus there, and create more space for them to thrive with you.” – Mike Michalowicz ‍ ‍ The Three Questions that Unlock Growth Mike offers three simple but powerful questions to ask your best clients, questions that reveal what makes you stand out, how you can differentiate yourself from the industry, and where to find more people just like them. ‍ ‍ From “Doing it All” to Designing a Business that Runs Without You We discuss the trap of the “superhero entrepreneur” who tries to do everything themselves, and why true leadership means designing a business that thrives without your constant presence. Mike explains how he tests this by taking a four-week (sometimes seven-week) annual vacation, and how it's made his business stronger. ‍ ‍ If you only take one thing away from this episode… Your best business will come from your best clients. Focus on them, price in alignment with your value, and give your business the space it needs to grow - without burning yourself out. ‍ ‍ Final Thought to Reflect On? What could change for you if you stopped competing for every client - and started leading in your own niche, with quiet confidence and clear value? ‍ Want to explore what this could look like for you?Learn more about the ways you can work with Melitta Campbell to uncover your Value Sweet Spot to market, sell and grow your business confidently, and always on your terms.

“Voice isn't dead. It's forming a great alliance with AI.” — Julia Fraser, Executive Vice President, Americas, Sinch In a compelling conversation with Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, Julia Fraser of Sinch shares a front-line view into the dual revolutions transforming business communications today: RCS (Rich Communication Services) and AI. Representing the Americas for the Sweden-headquartered cloud communications company, Fraser highlights how these technologies are reshaping customer engagement—while keeping human connection at the center. Branded Trust and Richer Messaging Sinch's new research—spanning nearly 3,000 consumers and over 1,600 business leaders—shows that 54% of consumers prefer RCS over SMS/MMS, with 59% calling it a “game changer.” Fraser explains how branded and verified RCS messages not only improve trust and open rates, but also drive tangible results like abandoned cart recoveries. “When a consumer knows the message is really from their bank or retailer, they're more likely to act,” Fraser notes. AI-Powered Personalization, Real-Time Care The discussion dives deep into how AI enhances everything from marketing to customer care. Whether it's a personalized retail offer or a voicebot that helps resolve flight delays or financial fraud, AI is helping organizations anticipate needs and respond quickly. “AI isn't something to fear,” Fraser stresses. “It drives productivity and deeper personalization—across all generations.” Voice + AI = The Future Despite predictions that voice is on its way out, Fraser says the opposite is true—especially in financial services and healthcare. Sinch's data shows that 63% of businesses plan to adopt voice AI bots this year, with that figure rising to 86% in financial services. Whether it's a late flight, a blocked card, or a bereavement call, voice remains critical—and AI makes it faster, smarter, and more empathetic. Human-Centered Design From seamless triage in healthcare to respectful handling of debt collection, Fraser emphasizes the need to know when to hand a conversation off from a bot to a human. “It's not just about resolution. It's about doing so with trust, security, and empathy.” Four Pillars of Communication Success Sinch organizes its customer communication strategy around four pillars: Keep customers informed Keep customers safe Keep customers happy Drive engagement and loyalty through personalization And RCS and AI—working together—power all four.

Lately, we've been having a conversation that most couples avoid...we've been thinking about death. Not in a fearful way, but in a way that makes us more aware of how precious our time together really is. As we talk more about our future, our dreams, and the life we want to build, it's hitting us harder that time isn't guaranteed. We assume we have years ahead of us, but who's to say? This realization has completely shifted the way we love each other. No more waiting for the “right time” to travel, to experience new things, to show appreciation. **The right time is now.** We're making every day count because we don't want to look back and wish we had done more, loved harder, or been more present. In this episode, we dive deep into why couples should have this conversation, why we're choosing to be more intentional, and how truly understanding the **finite** nature of life has made our marriage stronger than ever. If you've ever taken your partner's presence for granted (we all do at times), this discussion will shift your perspective.
