Episode 2094: Kara Copple shares a practical approach to self-promotion by reframing marketing as an act of service rather than persuasion. Drawing on lessons from Ramit Sethi and other business experts, the article explains how understanding your audience, building trust, and consistently creating value can help you grow a recognizable brand without feeling inauthentic. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.iwillteachyoutoberich.com/how-to-market-yourself/ Quotes to ponder: "It's all about a subtle mental shift. Rather than asking for something, like everyone else does, offer to solve their problems." "So, don't just look at marketing as you are getting something from your customers. Instead, frame it as if you are providing them with something valuable." "Half your job is simply showing up and becoming a familiar face, but your main job is showing up armed with bucket loads of value."

Most entrepreneurs have a content problem they don't even realize they have. They're constantly searching for new ideas, new angles, new messaging, and new things to say—when the real problem is that their audience still hasn't fully understood the thing they've already been saying. In this episode, I share why repetition is one of the most underrated tools in marketing, how constantly chasing new content burns time, money, and momentum, and why the brands that dominate are often built around one message repeated relentlessly. We'll talk about the one thing your audience needs to hear over and over again, why clarity beats novelty almost every time, and how a single core message can make it dramatically easier for people to understand your work, trust your expertise, and pay you premium prices.

Send us Fan MailAI is finally in everyone's hands, and that's exactly why it's getting risky. Grant McGaugh sits down with veteran tech leader Darrell T. Black (CIO, CTO, CDO) to discuss what it really takes to bring AI into a business without compromising trust, compliance, or the back office. We get into the difference between experimenting with a chatbot and deploying AI inside the systems that run payroll, HR, finance, and customer data.Darrell shares a grounded view of AI readiness: understand your current processes, map the real workflow (not the version on paper), define the future state, then conduct a gap and impact analysis before you automate anything. We also unpack why AI hallucinations matter, how probabilistic AI differs from deterministic technology, and why “it sounds good” is not the same as “it's accurate.” If you're thinking about agentic AI, this is where the conversation gets practical about audit trails, human oversight, and governance that can scale.We also tackle the bigger societal layer: bias in algorithms, safeguards in hiring and healthcare, and why policy often sets the tone for enterprise behavior. And Darrell leaves us with a simple warning you'll remember: you might think you're adopting an AI puppy, but you're responsible for the full-grown AI dog. If you're a founder, operator, or IT leader trying to use AI to scale responsibly, this one is for you.Subscribe for more conversations like this, share the episode with a friend building with AI, and leave a review with the biggest AI risk you want us to tackle next.Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!

Are you still playing by the old career rules, sending out resumes, waiting for HR to notice you, and hoping AI doesn't filter you out before a human ever sees your name? Are you frustrated that you “did everything right” (education, resume, interview skills) yet still feel invisible in a job market overrun by automation, layoffs, and gig work? In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Dr. Chaz Austin explains why corporate loyalty is dead and why every worker, employee, freelancer, or consultant must start thinking like an entrepreneur. Drawing on his doctorate in organizational leadership from Pepperdine, three books, including How to Find Work for the Rest of Your Life, LinkedIn Learning career courses, and a TEDx talk, he breaks down how AI has flooded the hiring system with noise, and why employers are retreating to the safest filter they know: real human relationships and referrals. Instead of hoping an algorithm notices you, Chaz shows you how to become the person people already know and trust before an opening is ever posted, rather than relying on random luck. https://youtu.be/4Ooqx32wiHs?si=HVYTr3Zmb0rgE6ks Dr. Chaz walks you through a practical, modern strategy centered on LinkedIn, targeted groups, and consistent visibility. He reveals how to position your profile, so decision-makers instantly see your value, how to use groups and volunteering as an “audition” for future work, and why you must embrace the reality that you now have two jobs: your craft and your self‑marketing. His “farmer” metaphor, planting and nurturing many relationship seeds over time, offers a realistic, sustainable way to generate ongoing gigs, referrals, and opportunities without feeling like a pushy salesperson. This conversation is packed with insights for anyone frustrated by ignored applications, unstable employment, or a nagging fear that they're being left behind by AI and automation. If you're ready to stop depending on resumes and start building a relationship-powered, opportunity-rich career in the gig economy, Dr. Chaz's approach may be the reset you need. Quotes: "Think of yourself as a farmer: plant as many seeds as you can. You water them, you nurture them, and you don't need all of them to grow; if a few start to pop up, that's your new client, that's your new gig." "Sometimes they don't hire the best people; they hire people they know and trust that they've worked with before." "You need to lower your expectations significantly about the old sending out the resume. You can continue to do that, but don't expect anything. A lot of it is just busy work."  Contact Details: Explore Dr. Chaz Austin's Official Website Visit Dr. Chaz Austin's Facebook Page Connect with Dr. Chaz Austin on LinkedIn Follow Dr. Chaz Austin on Instagram Get a Copy of How to Find Work for the Rest of Your Life on Amazon

Brent is joined by Paige Kosinski, co-founder of Odyssey Entertainment Group, an influencer talent management company that has grown from a boutique operation into a mid-size powerhouse. The conversation covers the evolution of the creator economy, the art of matching talent with brands, and the practical steps aspiring creators need to take to build sustainable careers. Whether you are a merchant looking to leverage influencer marketing or a creator hoping to monetize your platform, this episode delivers real-world guidance from someone who lives and breathes this space every single day.Key TakeawaysConsistency beats follower count. Algorithms reward creators who show up regularly, and brands now prioritize engaged communities over raw follower numbers.Start with one clear focus. Creators should establish expertise in a single area before expanding into lifestyle content. That focus gives audiences a reason to stick around.Brand partnerships drive the bulk of creator revenue. Beyond one-off deals, long-term collaborations with aligned brands create stability for both the creator and the company.AI-generated content can backfire. Audiences are quick to spot avatar-driven or AI-produced material, and brands are even adding contract clauses to limit AI use in creative deliverables.The creator economy welcomes every generation. Gen X influencers are thriving on social platforms, proving that audience-building has no age requirement.Personal branding comes first. Monetization follows naturally when a creator invests in building a genuine, recognizable brand with clear content pillars.Cross-platform presence matters. Successful creators post across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Pinterest depending on where their audience lives.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Odyssey Entertainment Group01:53 The Evolution of Influencer Management05:11 Matching Influencers with Brands09:03 The Importance of Community and Niche10:07 Engaging Older Audiences11:11 Navigating Different Platforms12:39 Building a Personal Brand13:31 Public Speaking and Influencer Opportunities14:33 The Role of AI in Content Creation17:21 Getting Started as an Influencer18:55 Closing Thoughts and Promotions ResourcesOdyssey Entertainment Group - https://www.odysseyentertainmentgroup.comErica Ver - PianyandHoney - https://www.instagram.com/pianyandhoneyWall Blush Modern Manor Collection - https://wallblush.com/collections/modern-manor

 With host retail coach Wendy Batten   https://wendybatten.com/podcast-intro/   Episode Overview In this episode, I sit down with best-selling marketing author and speaker Mark Schaefer to talk about what matters most for independent retailers in a world that's being increasingly shaped by AI. While technology continues to change how customers find the places they love to shop, Mark makes a compelling case that the strongest advantage for brick-and-mortar retailers is still something AI cannot replicate: a completely human experience. We talk about the role of personal branding, community, experiences, and transcendent content in modern retail. Mark shares why human-centered meaningful relationships matter more than marketing tricks and how shop owners can create businesses that people genuinely want to belong to. If you are interested in standing out amongst your peers, staying relevant, and building lasting customer loyalty, we recorded this episode to remind you that being human is your biggest asset in your retail business. Our Key Topics Why AI is changing marketing and customer discovery, and where independent retailers still have an advantage How personal branding helps shop owners build trust and stronger customer relationships What experiences, hospitality, and human connection can offer that technology cannot Why storytelling matters, including Mark's AIR framework: Authentic, Interesting, and Relevant How community differs from an audience, and why belonging creates lasting loyalty What it means to build a business that is meaningful to customers, not just visible Key Takeaways For Shop Owners on Personal Branding and Community Building Your personal brand is a competitive advantage. Mark emphasizes that customers can build relationships with local business owners, employees, and other customers in ways they never can with large online retailers. Being visible, present, and connected to your community helps create trust that technology cannot replace. Community creates loyalty that marketing alone cannot. When customers form relationships with each other through your business, the goodwill from those friendships transfers back to your brand. People continue showing up because they feel connected, not just because they need whatever it is that you are selling. Stories help customers remember and share your business. Mark encourages retailers to tell stories in every customer interaction. Stories give people something meaningful to talk about and create connections that extend beyond a transaction. The AIR framework can guide better storytelling. Stories should be Authentic, Interesting, and Relevant. When customers hear stories that meet those criteria, they are more likely to remember them and share them with others. Meaning matters more than trying to win every technology battle. Rather than obsessing over search rankings or AI visibility, Mark encourages business owners to focus on becoming meaningful to the people they serve. Businesses that create emotional connections have an advantage that technology cannot easily replicate. "The most human company wins." - Mark Schaefer, Marketing Rebellion This conversation left me so giddy. I love the reminder that our greatest opportunity as shop owners isn't simply selling products. It's creating places where people feel seen, connected, and part of something meaningful.

Ep 229: Building Wealth & Influence Through Books, Podcasts & Personal Branding

Send us Fan MailA lot of leaders talk about resilience. Far fewer can explain how to turn resilience into something a whole team can actually use when the pressure is on. Grant McGaugh sits down with Jason Gallo to trace that shift from a “power through it” mindset to authentic leadership built on tools, trust, and empowerment, shaped by Jason's Brooklyn upbringing and a Grand Canyon moment where the only goal was “five more steps.” From there, we zoom out to the biggest workplace shift many of us will ever live through: artificial intelligence. Jason lays out why AI will surpass the impact of the internet and cloud, how agentic AI changes the way work gets done, and why trust infrastructure matters as much as technical infrastructure. We talk candidly about the anxiety people feel when new tools show up overnight, the adoption curve that follows every major platform change, and what leaders can do right now with training, communication, and the humility to say, “We don't have all the answers.” Jason also shares a practical story from inside Cisco: “corporate camouflage,” the stuffed elephant that gave a room full of executives permission to be heard, and how that kind of vulnerability can unlock real innovation. We dig into mentorship as a “board of directors” (including devil's advocate mentors), representation in tech, and how Cisco is transforming its ecosystem through the Cisco 360 partner program using co-design with roughly 35,000 partners worldwide. We close with a personal reminder on prostate cancer awareness and prevention. If you found this helpful, subscribe, share the episode with a leader navigating AI change, and leave a review.

The world is loud, work is heavier than it should be, and “hustle” has become a badge of honor even when it is wrecking our health and focus. We wanted a better way, so we brought on Drew Thompson, keynote speaker and AI expert known as the “AI to human translator,” to talk about what happens when you combine practical AI strategy with something most business conversations forget: laughter.Drew shares the through line of his career, from child actor to ad agency founder to coaching thousands of high performers, and why service is the real strategy. We dig into his upcoming book idea, Permission to Laugh, and why humor is not denial but a tool for presence, perspective, and resilience when things feel dark. From there, we turn AI into real-world action, including his “AI for 14 days” practice using ChatGPT or Gemini as a judgment-free thought partner to unpack fears, frustrations, goals, and decision blocks like analysis paralysis.We also get tactical with a zero-dollar AI framework that stacks tools to help you operate like you have a much bigger team, plus content workflows using AI scripting, avatar video tools like HeyGen, automation with n8n, and rapid building with tools like Replit. Drew calls out what he sees high performers doing wrong right now, why grinding is not the flex people think it is, and why emotional intelligence and face-to-face connection matter more than ever as AI content marketing accelerates, especially in industries like real estate.If you want practical AI prompts, smarter systems, and a more human way to scale, press play. Then subscribe, leave a quick review, and share this with a friend who needs permission to pause, laugh, and build lighter.Drew ThompsonFounder and CEO, Signal and Scale AIsignalandscale.aiNote: Drew's community name/link may have changed since this episode was recorded.

When most people think of fiercely loyal fan communities, the Grateful Dead comes to mind. Decades after forming, the band still sells out massive venues, their fans self-identify as "Deadheads," and original vinyl is nearly impossible to find secondhand because no one wants to let it go. In this episode, I share a story I love about how the Grateful Dead built that loyalty and how you can apply the same principles to your personal brand and business. Back in the 1970s, while record labels were cracking down hard on bootleg recordings, the Grateful Dead did the opposite. They allowed fans to record live shows, set up dedicated taper sections at concerts, and openly encouraged fans to share recordings, with one rule: share them but don't sell them. By 1984, this was official band policy. The result? A devoted community that grew through shared experiences, word of mouth, and a hunger to see the band live. Fans who heard tapes saved up for tickets. People who went to one show became lifelong followers. The band built an empire on abundance instead of scarcity. Here are three lessons from the Grateful Dead you can apply to your business: Find your "taper section." Identify one place where people can experience the real you before they ever pay you... maybe its a newsletter, podcast, or social post. Protect your "live experience." Get clear on what people are actually paying for when they work with you that no one can copy or download. Audit your scarcity mindset and notice where fear of "giving too much away" might be costing you trust and connection with potential clients. Loved this episode? Share it to your story and tag me.

Love Your Career Podcast? Let us know!Career Reinvention, Retirement and Building a Richer Life with Hannah MartinWhat does it really mean to prepare for retirement? For many women, especially mid-career professionals, retirement planning is often reduced to one question: “Will I have enough money?” Yet, as Hannah Martin explains in this thoughtful conversation, a fulfilling later life requires more than financial security. It also calls for purpose, community, health, independence and a clear sense of what comes next.In episode 282 of Your Career Podcast, Jane Jackson reconnects with Hannah Martin, founder of Talented Ladies Club and Rich Retiree, seven years after their last conversation. Hannah and I chatted in episodes 19 and 101. Hannah shares how her work supporting ambitious mothers returning to the workforce evolved into a new mission: helping women prepare for retirement in a way that is practical, empowering and deeply human.Jane and Hannah discuss the unique career and financial challenges many women face, including career breaks, lower pension or superannuation balances, caring responsibilities, and the implications of, unfortunately, a divorce. Confidence dips after time out of the workforce, and the long-term impact of the gender pay gap.They also explore why career reinvention does not stop at midlife. Whether you are facing redundancy, considering a career change, preparing for retirement, or wondering how to create more meaning in your next chapter, this conversation offers a reassuring reminder that it is never too late to make considered, confident choices.In this episode, we discuss:Why retirement planning must go beyond moneyThe four pillars of a rich retirement: finance, health, community and purposeHow career breaks can affect confidence, savings and long-term financial independenceWhy women often face different retirement challenges from menThe importance of community, contribution and meaningful activity as we ageHow mid-career professionals can begin planning their next chapter before they are forced toWhy career clarity matters at every stage of lifeHow cultural attitudes towards ageing can affect confidence, wellbeing and possibilityThe value of wisdom, lived experience and intergenerational connectionKey takeawayA rich retirement is not only about what you have saved. It is also about the life you are building.For mid-career professionals, this episode is a timely reminder to pause, reflect and ask: “What do I want the next chapter of my life and career to feel like?” Whether you are navigating redundancy, exploring a career change, rebuilding confidence, or preparing for a new stage of life, clarity is the first step towards making wise and grounded decisions.Resource mentioned:YouTube video when Jane visited Hannah in Worthing, UK - showing how genuine networking turns into genuine connections, taking the online connection offline to meet in person.  Watch here: https://youtu.be/hN_dAzQ30uo?si=PxSphzC7KI_psFsE About Hannah MartinHannah Martin is the founder of Talented Ladies Club, created in 2013 to support ambitious mothers returning to work and building careers or businesses that fit their lives.

Wie wird man sichtbar, ohne sich zu verbiegen und warum schaffen manche Menschen es, sich innerhalb weniger Jahre komplett neu zu positionieren, obwohl sie vorher mit Social Media, Marketing oder Personal Branding überhaupt nichts zu tun hatten? Genau darüber spreche ich in dieser Folge mit Tobias Milbrandt. Tobias war früher Beamter, hat jahrelang kaum gelesen und irgendwann gemerkt: „Das kann doch noch nicht alles gewesen sein.“ Heute ist er: • Buchmarketing-Experte • Content Creator • Podcaster • Unternehmer • Autor • und für viele Menschen inzwischen eine der sichtbarsten Stimmen rund um Sachbücher, Lesen und Buchmarketing im deutschsprachigen Raum. Wir sprechen über seinen Weg vom Finanzbeamten zum Unternehmer, über Sichtbarkeit, Community-Aufbau, Bücher als Karriere-Booster und darüber, warum viele Menschen beim Thema Personal Branding die völlig falschen Prioritäten setzen. Außerdem teilt Tobias extrem konkrete Insights darüber: • wie er auf Instagram gewachsen ist • warum er lange kaum Reichweite hatte • welche Content-Formate wirklich funktionieren • warum Community wichtiger ist als Reichweite • weshalb viele Bücher trotz guter Inhalte scheitern • und warum die meisten Fehler im Buchmarketing passieren, bevor ein Buch überhaupt erscheint. Eine Folge für alle, die sichtbarer werden wollen, mit dem Gedanken spielen, ein Buch zu schreiben, oder sich fragen, wie man sich heute nachhaltig eine starke Personal Brand aufbaut. ________________________________________ Darum geht's in der Folge: • Tobias Milbrandts Weg vom Beamten zum Unternehmer • Wie Bücher sein Leben verändert haben • Warum Umsetzung wichtiger ist als Wissen • Personal Branding ohne „Business-Guru“-Attitüde • Wie man auf Social Media sichtbar wird • Warum viele Menschen falsch posten • Die größten Fehler beim Community-Aufbau • Instagram-Wachstum: Was bei Tobias wirklich funktioniert hat • Warum Wiederholung wichtiger ist als ständige Neuerfindung • Community vs. Reichweite • Wie man Vertrauen auf Social Media aufbaut • Warum heute niemand mehr einfach „nur“ ein Buch schreibt • Was Verlage heute wirklich interessiert • Spiegel-Bestsellerlisten & die Realität dahinter • Warum ein Buch oft eher ein strategisches Tool als ein Produkt ist • Wie Buchmarketing heute funktioniert • Die größten Denkfehler vieler Autor • Sichtbarkeit, Medienpräsenz & eigene Reichweite • Warum niemand auf dein Buch wartet – und was das für deine Positionierung bedeutet ________________________________________ Besonders starke Aussagen aus der Folge „Die Arbeit beginnt erst, wenn das Buch geschrieben ist.“ „Die meisten posten das, was sie zeigen wollen… nicht das, was Menschen sehen wollen.“ „Es wartet niemand darauf, dass du ein Buch schreibst.“ „Die letzten Instagram-Posts interessieren nächste Woche niemanden mehr. Ein Buch bleibt.“ „Community ist wichtiger als Reichweite.“ ________________________________________ Bücher & Empfehlungen aus der Folge • Money – Tony Robbins • Kompass für die Seele – Jack Canfield • Say It Well – Terry Szuplat • Big Magic – Elizabeth Gilbert • Visualisieren – Grace Lordan • Souverän investieren mit Indexfonds & ETFs – Gerd Kommer ________________________________________ Mehr zu Tobias Milbrandt Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tobias.milbrandt/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tobias-milbrandt ________________________________________ Wenn dir die Folge gefallen hat, freue ich mich riesig über eine Bewertung bei Spotify oder Apple Podcasts.

From the time she was a little girl, Hayley Paige knew exactly what she wanted to do: design wedding dresses. And she did it. By her early thirties she had a million Instagram followers, a recurring spot on Say Yes to the Dress, and gowns selling in hundreds of stores worldwide. And then she lost all of it. Her name. Her Instagram. Her right to design. Even her right to publicly call herself Hayley Paige. What followed was years of fighting in court, broke, locked out of everything she had built, just to reclaim what should have been hers from the start. And when she finally did, she turned that experience into something bigger, founding A Girl You Might Know Foundation and She Is Cheval to make sure other women don't have to go through the same thing.

She built the business. She built the influence. She built the brand. But before God expanded her impact, He had to heal her identity.  In this episode, we're sharing a powerful conversation from Emily's guesting on The Inspire Effect Podcast with Phil Valdez. While many people know Emily as an entrepreneur, speaker, and personal branding expert, this episode reveals the deeper story of how God healed her identity and redefined her understanding of influence and purpose.  From growing up without a father to building a nine-figure sales organization, Emily opens up about the wounds success couldn't heal, the relationships she almost sabotaged, and the encounter with Jesus that transformed her life from the inside out. She shares how faith reshaped her approach to business, personal branding, marriage, leadership, and purpose, and why true confidence isn't found in what you build, but in knowing who God says you are. Whether you're building a business, leading a family, or simply seeking clarity in your next season, this conversation is a reminder that before God expands your impact, He often heals your heart. And sometimes the breakthrough you've been praying for begins with allowing Him to restore the person behind the brand. What You'll Learn: The hidden reason success still feels empty for so many high performers The personal branding lesson God had to teach Emily before expanding her influence Why influence can never outrun identity What it means to find your confidence in Christ instead of your accomplishments The role discernment plays in making life-changing business decisions Timestamps: (03:52) - How Childhood Wounds Shape Your Adult Life (06:13) - Seeing Yourself the Way God Does (09:58) - What Happens When You Finally Surrender to God (19:01) - How One Person's Belief Can Change Your Life (22:03) - What Joseph's Story Teaches Us About Finding Our Purpose (25:23) - The Personal Branding Lesson Most People Miss (27:47) - Authenticity in Personal Branding (33:37) - Why Success Is Built in the Seasons No One Sees (37:18) - Why Discernment Is More Valuable Than Strategy (41:58) - What Happens When You Put God First in Business (49:12) - Why Success Without Faith Will Always Feel Empty  More from Emily & FORDIVINE: Website |  https://meetemilyford.com   Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/itsemily         Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/itsemilymethod    YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/c/ITSEMILYFORD Called & Crowned Podcast | https://www.instagram.com

What if the most powerful marketing tool a physician has isn't a website or an ad campaign — it's themselves? In this episode, Tracy Cherpeski sits down with Ginger Allen, founder of Your Medical Liaison and president of the Florida Medical Association Alliance, to talk about what actually works when growing a functional medicine practice or any independent healthcare practice.  Read the full show notes, memorable quotes, and key takeaways.  With 12 years of medical marketing experience, Ginger has seen it all — physicians who invest in $100,000 machines before they have a patient base to support them, marketing companies that take the money and disappear, and the slow grind of burnout that sets in when doctors are trying to run a business on top of practicing medicine. Her antidote: get marketing off your plate, lead with your personal brand, and build a practice where you're the draw — not the decor. You'll hear why functional and integrative medicine requires a fundamentally different marketing strategy, how Ginger helps physicians show up on camera without hating every second of it, and what she's consistently noticed about doctors who make the shift to root-cause care: they're genuinely happier.  Read the full show notes, memorable quotes, and key takeaways.  Connect With Us:  Be a Guest on the Show  Thriving Practice Community  Schedule Strategy Session with Tracy  Tracy's LinkedIn  Business LinkedIn Page 

In this episode of the Story Engine Podcast, I sit down with Jonathan Greye from personalbrand.com to explore what branding really means—and why most people are getting it completely wrong. We go far beyond logos, fonts, and color palettes to uncover the deeper "engine of the story" that drives everything: your identity, your lived experiences, and the essence of who you are. Jonathan shares how true branding is about mirror work—reflecting your full story back to you so clearly that it transforms not just your messaging, but your offers, your team alignment, and the way your entire business operates. What struck me most is how this process doesn't just create a brand—it creates freedom. When your brand is rooted in your true essence, you stop rebuilding your website every year, stop chasing trends, and start building something timeless that evolves with you. Jonathan also opens up about the pivotal moment that pushed him to leave agency life behind and build a business where creativity, alignment, and impact finally came together. If you've ever felt boxed in, scattered, or disconnected from your own brand, this conversation will completely reframe how you see your business. 01:09 – The "Engine of the Story" Explained Jonathan shares how storytelling across copy, visuals, and design creates a multi-sensory brand experience. 03:42 – What a Brand Manifesto Actually Does We break down how a manifesto draws a line in the sand, attracts the right people, and repels the wrong ones. 05:09 – Where Most Branding Agencies Get It Wrong Why focusing only on content or niching can limit growth—and how true brand DNA creates long-term flexibility. 07:42 – The Costly Trap of Constant Rebranding I share the common cycle of rebuilding websites and chasing trends—and why it never works long term. 08:38 – Mirror Work: Seeing Yourself Clearly for the First Time Jonathan defines mirror work and explains how embracing your full story becomes your true differentiation. 10:25 – How Your Brand Shapes Your Offers and Business Model We explore how understanding your essence influences not just messaging—but how you structure your entire business. 12:04 – The "Frankenstein Brand" Problem Jonathan describes how many entrepreneurs piece together scattered strategies that never fully align. 15:06 – Branding That Creates Cultural Impact How great brands go beyond marketing and begin to shape movements and communities. 17:08 – The Breaking Point: Creative Director Burnout Jonathan shares the moment he realized his dream job wasn't what he thought it would be. 18:12 – The Dali Museum Project That Changed Everything A powerful story of creative rejection that led to a complete shift in his career path. 20:02 – The First Aligned Client Experience The moment Jonathan realized he was finally doing the work he was meant to do. 21:39 – "I Finally Felt Seen" How a client's reaction validated his new approach to branding and set the foundation for his business. 26:08 – From Rejection to Reinvention (Story Breakdown) I reflect Jonathan's journey back to him, connecting the dots into a powerful, transformational narrative. 28:58 – Where to Learn More How to connect with Jonathan and explore working with his team at personalbrand.com.

Your personal brand is not limited to your LinkedIn profile, your networking skills, or how you show up at work. It is how people experience you in every room you enter, including your relationships, your dating life, your confidence, your boundaries, and the stories you tell yourself about your own worth.In this episode of Branding Room Only, Paula T. Edgar sits down with love educator, coach, author, and two-time TED speaker Francesca Hogi for a candid conversation about the connection between personal branding, self-worth, dating, and authenticity. From her unconventional path from corporate law to matchmaking and coaching to her insights on modern dating culture, Francesca shares why so many people are taught to perform for acceptance instead of choosing themselves first.Together, Paula and Francesca unpack the conditioning that teaches women to wait to be chosen, the difference between attraction and alignment, how relationship patterns often mirror professional patterns, and why discernment matters just as much in love as it does in business. They also dive into dating apps, intuition, confidence, loneliness, authenticity, and what it really means to bring your full self into every room you enter.Honest, funny, reflective, and deeply relatable, this conversation will have you thinking differently about love, identity, and the way you move through the world.1:16 – What personal brand means to Francesca, how she'd describe herself, her lifelong motto, and why she calls herself “a weirdo” about music5:37 – How growing up in New York City influenced Francesca's understanding and appreciation of people7:40 – The question Francesca hated being asked as a child, and how the only answer she had influenced her professional life (including her Survivor appearances)13:41 – How matchmaker Paul C.

Buy the Inchstones-The Vibe within book hereBefore there was social media influence, personal branding, or leadership books, there was wisdom.In this episode of The Vibe with Kelly Cardenas, we dive deep into Proverbs 8 and one of the most powerful lessons my parents ever taught me:"Boy, you better know who you're dealing with."My Pops would say it one way. My mama would say, "Don't be a respecter of persons." For years, those ideas seemed contradictory. As life unfolded, I realized they work together perfectly.This conversation explores why wisdom calls out to us constantly, why so many people ignore it, and why understanding the people, places, and situations around you can dramatically impact your personal, professional, spiritual, and financial life.In Proverbs 8, wisdom isn't passive—it is pleading with us to listen. It offers prudence, discernment, truth, justice, sound judgment, knowledge, and direction. More valuable than gold, silver, or precious jewels, wisdom has been available since the beginning of time. The question is: are we willing to listen?In this episode, you'll discover:✅ Why wisdom is the foundation of great leadership✅ How discernment helps you navigate relationships and opportunities✅ The connection between wisdom, prosperity, and purpose✅ Why humility is essential for growth✅ How Proverbs 8 applies to modern business, leadership, and everyday life✅ Why "knowing who you're dealing with" can change your futureWisdom is not a destination.It's a daily process.Just like spending time with God, wisdom requires intentional pursuit. When you find wisdom, you find life.The challenge isn't whether wisdom is available.The challenge is whether we're paying attention.If you've ever wondered how to make better decisions, build stronger relationships, lead with greater confidence, and create a life with deeper meaning, this episode is for you.

Send us Fan MailA stroke or heart attack rarely happens in a doctor's office, it happens on an ordinary day when nobody is watching the subtle warning signs. We sit down with healthcare innovator and RM2.ai CEO Corlette to talk about the invisible gap between appointments and why that gap is where preventable crises quietly build. If you're caring for aging parents, managing chronic disease, or simply trying to stay independent longer, this conversation is a practical look at how prevention can finally come before panic. We get personal about caregiving, the “sandwich generation,” and the cost of waiting until there's a fall, a missed medication, or a sudden ER visit. Corlette explains how an early warning health intelligence platform integrates with select wearables to pull vitals like blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen, and temperature and then turns those readings into trend-based visibility and alerts. We also dig into how a shared care team dashboard can assign different alerts to different family members, plus why geofencing and location monitoring can be life-saving for loved ones at risk of wandering with dementia. We also tackle the big question: should people be afraid of AI in healthcare? Corlette makes the case for AI as an enhancement, not a replacement for human care, and introduces live vital intelligence for telehealth so clinicians can see real-time vitals during a virtual visit and review months of trends without relying on handwritten logs. Along the way, we connect prevention back to everyday lifestyle choices and why “know your numbers” matters for hypertension and other chronic conditions. If this resonates, subscribe, share this episode with a caregiver or family group chat, and leave a review so more people find tools and ideas that help prevent the next crisis before it starts.Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!

In this episode, Alex Quin and Michelle Chia return to the podcast after a brief hiatus to share personal and professional updates, discuss the realities of entrepreneurship, and break down the healthy habits that help them sustain long workdays without burning out. From sleep, exercise, nutrition, and stress management to setting boundaries, journaling, and personal growth, they offer practical insights for entrepreneurs looking to build successful businesses while protecting their health and well-being.Episode Outline:[00:00] Welcome Back and Life Updates[02:15] Agency Growth, New Clients, and New Books[04:20] Why We Chose Healthy Habits for Entrepreneurs[08:05] Sleep, Recovery, and Long-Term Performance[10:12] Taking Breaks, Walking, and Staying Active[12:25] Time Blocking and Productivity Systems[14:15] Setting Boundaries With Clients[16:05] Learning to Say No[17:35] WHOOP, Oura Ring, and Health Tracking[19:05] Michelle's Cortisol and Stress Story[21:40] Nutrition, Hydration, and Managing Stress[23:10] The Tarzan "Swinging Vines" Concept[25:05] Becoming Your 2.0 Self[26:40] Journaling, Books, and Personal Growth[27:50] Habits We're Trying to Change[28:40] Final Thoughts and Closing RemarksWisdom Nuggets:Sleep Is a Competitive Advantage: Entrepreneurs often treat sleep like a luxury instead of a necessity. Alex and Michelle remind us that better decisions, sharper focus, and sustainable growth all start with proper recovery. The goal isn't to work more hours—it's to make your hours more effective.Protect Your Energy: Being available 24/7 may feel like great customer service, but constant accessibility creates burnout. Setting healthy boundaries with clients, coworkers, and even family members allows you to show up at your best when it matters most.Track Your Health Like Your Business: Most entrepreneurs obsess over revenue, sales, and analytics while ignoring their own health metrics. Monitoring stress levels, sleep quality, blood work, and recovery can help identify issues early and improve long-term performance.Let Go to Level Up: Growth often requires releasing habits, relationships, or routines that no longer serve your future. Like Tarzan swinging from one vine to the next, you have to let go of the old before you can fully grab onto new opportunities.Become Your Next Version: Success isn't about staying the same person and hoping for different results. The habits, mindset, and behaviors that got you here may not be enough to get you where you want to go next. Continuous self-improvement is a requirement, not an option.Power Quotes"Your heart rhythm is a very important thing that people don't even pay attention to." - Alex Quin"It's okay to say no and it's okay to put yourself first." - Michelle ChiaConnect with Michelle:Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/michellechia)Linkedin: (https://www.linkedin.com/in/michelle-chia1/)Connect With the Podcast Host Alex Quin:Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/alexquin)Twitter: (https://twitter.com/mralexquin)LinkedIn: (https://www.linkedin.com/in/mralexquin)Website: (https://alexquin.com)TikTok: (https://www.tiktok.com/@mralexquin)Books Mentioned:Atomic Habits — James ClearThe Road Less Stupid — Keith J.

Have you ever wondered if building your personal brand is really worth your time, your energy, and your vulnerability? In this episode, Kimberly Gayle flips that question on its head because the real question isn't whether personal branding is worth it. It's what your invisibility is costing you. Kimberly breaks down why women with equal or greater expertise are being passed over for speaking stages, board seats, funding, and clients — not because of what they lack, but because of who can't find them. She shares real data, a story close to her heart, and client results that prove what becomes possible when a woman gets certain about her brand foundation and starts showing up strategically. The opportunity goes to the woman they can find. This episode is your reminder, and your challenge is to be findable.

Send us Fan MailMost men don't collapse all at once. They drift, they numb out, they get busy, and then one day they realize they've been “fine” for years while quietly losing their edge, their joy, or their family. Grant McGaugh sits down with Derek Jackson, a longtime healthcare leader and the author of Men Dying Garden Moments: The Hidden Crisis of Masculinity and the Journey Back to Life, for a direct conversation about men's mental health, masculinity, and what accountability actually looks like when nobody's watching.Derek introduces the idea of “garden moments,” those decision points where the consequences outlast the emotion. We talk through the four areas where men often start to check out: stature (how we respond to changing roles and expectations), spirituality (having an anchor and core beliefs), physical health (including lifestyle and finances, not just the body), and relationships (the growing friction and mistrust between men and women). Along the way, we dig into authenticity, the influence of algorithms and culture, and why “perform, provide, protect” isn't enough if you never learn to process.We also get practical: how to build a safe circle of men, Derek's “board meeting,” where mentorship happens and accountability becomes normal. If you want to lead better, love better, and live with fewer regrets, this conversation is a strong starting point. Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs it, and leave a review. What's one “garden moment” you're facing right now?Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!
