Send us a textA single Saturday in 1966 changed everything. When a young Ed Rahill paused lawn duty to hear the 24 Hours of Le Mans on the radio, endurance racing planted a seed that would grow into record-setting coast-to-coast drives, a fearless corporate career, and a blueprint for living with grit. We go beyond the spectacle to explore how planning, patience, and partnership carry you through the stretches no one posts on highlight reels.Ed maps the unlikely bridge between CFO and president roles and the “last great American road race,” weaving in a vivid history of endurance—from the Pony Express and thousand-mile cattle drives to the first cross-country auto challenge in 1904. The stories are cinematic: arrests in multiple states, an all-points bulletin, clandestine support from GM engineers, and the relentless math of speed, fuel, and fatigue. Yet the real takeaway is strategic: choose the right teammate, build redundancy, respect the road, and recover fast when everything breaks at once.At the heart of this conversation is a promise. Raised by women who sacrificed their dreams, Ed vowed to break that pattern and treat life as a relay. The baton metaphor runs through every chapter—start strong, absorb the hits, and hand off hard-won wisdom so the next runner goes farther. He shares the razor‑thin moment when a handshake with Blackstone saved his company and his team, reminding us that survival is often the doorway to impact. The message is simple and powerful: you have the right to try, the duty to prepare, and the calling to pass your gains forward.If stories of resilience, leadership under fire, and American car culture light you up, you'll find both adrenaline and guidance here. Subscribe, share this with someone who needs a push, and leave a review telling us the toughest mile you've ever run—what baton are you carrying next?Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!

Send us a textIn a world obsessed with hustle, noise, and nonstop self-promotion, what if the most powerful way to stand out… is to stay true to your quieter side?This week on FUTUREPROOF., Jeremy talks with Goldie Chan, once dubbed the “Oprah of LinkedIn” and author of Personal Branding for Introverts, about how to build visibility and influence without faking extroversion — or burning out.Goldie is the founder of Warm Robots, a personal branding agency that's helped executives, creators, and companies sharpen their stories.

In this episode, I sit down with Ruheene Jaura, co-founder of Hey Levi and the new app Brandify, whose background includes launch work with Apple and Amazon. We unpack how AI personal branding (done right) separates you from your business brand, clarifies positioning, and drives revenue without feeding the algorithm treadmill. You'll hear how Ruheene moved from reach to results using deep audience research, systems, and practical automation to surface the podcasts, events, and keywords your buyers already trust. If you're scaling a 7 or 8-figure agency or business and want less bottleneck, less burnout, and more high-fit demand, this is a clear, actionable path: align your personal brand to authority-building outcomes, keep your business brand sellable, and turn visibility into pipeline.

Carlii Lyon has spent more than two decades helping extraordinary people shape their stories, from supermodels and global entrepreneurs to bestselling authors and spiritual leaders. As a publicist, she built reputations that captured the world’s attention, but over time her work shifted from curating others’ narratives to reclaiming her own. Her book Courage to Be – Small Steps for a Big Life is part memoir, part manifesto, exploring the quiet but profound acts of courage that redefine our lives. Through honest storytelling, Carlii invites readers to embrace visibility, imperfection and the liberation that comes with speaking our truth. This conversation is both professional and deeply personal. Carlii and I have known each other for nearly twenty years, through motherhood, reinvention and the ever-evolving landscape of womanhood. She introduced me to Dr John Demartini and Miranda Kerr when her career as a powerhouse publicist was in full swing. I met her as a junior publicist, full of promise and drive, and we have travelled together, breastfed our babies side by side, and held each other through heartbreak and triumph. In this episode we talk about authenticity, confidence, storytelling and self-discovery—the courage to evolve, to be seen and to stand fully in your truth. Listen or watch the full conversation on Spotify, iTunes and YouTube. Link in bio.

Un épisode de Vision Talk que tout le monde devrait voir, avec énormément de richesse et de profondeur pour se comprendre soi, au côté de la thérapeute Chehra.On aborde toutes les thématiques les plus importantes de la thérapie, et celles rarement exprimées, ou expliquées, publiquement :1) Tous les blocages et blessures issus de nos parents, et leur impact sur notre construction.2) L'héritage transgénérationnel, très sous souvent méconnu, qui pourtant impacte énormément de nos schémas répétitifs et attire à nous des expériences de vie ou drames très spécifiques.3) Et enfin, une thématique que très peu ose aborder : les blessures karmiques, et comment on peut les reconnaître.J'espère que cet épisode touchera le plus de personnes, parce qu'il peut, je pense, créer de nombreux déclics tout en restant dans la bienveillance.Au plaisir de lire vos retours, bon visionnage !-----Vidéo YouTube de l'épisode : https://youtu.be/N22XcVvk2rk

Ever find yourself caught in the trap of confusing visibility with progress? In this episode, we'll delve into why seeking attention can often feel like momentum but doesn't necessarily translate to business traction. Will Schroter shares a cautionary tale from his own experience, revealing how his focus on brand-building and networking kept him from truly building his company. We explore the fine line between personal branding and productivity, and why many founders need to prioritize the latter to achieve real success.

In spring 2025 I was invited to join On Brand with Jimmy Fallon as 1 of 10 creatives selected to pitch national campaigns to major brands on national TV. Since the episodes aired, my DMs have been full of the same questions: how did I get on the show, what was it really like, and what do I think of Jimmy Fallon?This week on Making It In The Toy Industry, I'm taking you behind the scenes of my wild ride as a contestant on On Brand with Jimmy Fallon.

I was mentored by Bozoma Saint John and Jimmy Fallon, an experience that reshaped how I think about branding, marketing, and product launches.Every week the stakes got higher. One challenge had me mapping an NYC pop-up; another had me writing and singing jingles on a deadline. I was on national TV at 24+ weeks pregnant, keeping my energy high and my creativity flowing while still speaking the language of big corporate brands. It was a branding bootcamp that pushed me past what I thought was possible while I was also building a tiny human and becoming a first time mom.Tune into this podcast if you want all the BTS tea including:The branding moves that helped me get cast (and how you can use them to stand out)What it's really like working with Jimmy Fallon and Bozoma Saint JohnA new brand strategy I'm calling the Connect & Invest Loop that could change the way you launch and market foreverHow toy creators and creative entrepreneurs can build buzz before a single product hits the shelfIf you are building a toy brand or a creative business, and want to grow your visibility this is your playbook.Listen for these Important Moments:[00:01:25] - Learn how strategic visual branding, owning your lane, and consistent content helped me stand out to casting directors and how you can do the same.[00:08:58] - Get the surprising lessons I learned from Jimmy Fallon and Bozoma Saint John about showing up, shifting gears, and being “too much” in corporate spaces.[00:11:20] - Find out why separating your campaign concept from the activation is crucial and how it could strengthen your creative pitches or product launches.[00:16:17] - This show unintentionally unlocked a brilliant marketing framework, perfect for brands navigating today's trust recession and attention-starved audiences.[00:26:14] - Real-world examples of toy entrepreneurs involving their audience early, creating investment, loyalty, and funding success before the product hits shelves.Send The Toy Coach Fan Mail!Support the showPopular Masterclass!

Goldie Chan: Personal Branding for Introverts Goldie Chan is the founder of Warm Robots, a social media strategy and creative agency, and she is herself a creative, keynote speaker, author, and cancer survivor. She was named the “Oprah of LinkedIn” by Huffington Post, and her creative video channel won LinkedIn Top Voice for Social Media. She is the author of Personal Branding for Introverts (Amazon, Bookshop)*. Many of us aspire to have a powerful personal brand, but it's not always clear where to start. In this conversation, Goldie and I zero in on the five elements that matter most – and what you can do to get started. Key Points Five C's of personal branding: Clarity: Surface it by determining three words you want to be associated with. Consistency: The internet is for introverts. Find the medium where you can show up often and that plays to your strengths. Competency: Rather than promoting yourself, promote the ideas and practices you stand for through your experience. Confidence: Ego is when you shout who you are to a room, and confidence is when you know who you are in a room. Community: Join in on conversations with people discussing what you care about. Find these communities or build your own. Resources Mentioned Personal Branding for Introverts by Goldie Chan (Amazon, Bookshop)*.

Send us a textImagine if your computer could explore a landscape of possibilities all at once, using the same rules that make electrons behave in surprising ways. That's the mental pivot Farai, a quantum physicist and teacher, helps us make as we break down what quantum computing really is and where it actually wins. We trade hype for clarity, showing how superposition, entanglement, and interference become practical tools when classical methods hit walls.We walk through the real stakes: modeling complex materials to build safer batteries and corrosion-resistant coatings, accelerating drug discovery by simulating chemistry where properties emerge, and tackling massive optimization problems that govern airport gates, delivery routes, and supply chains. Farai explains why quantum machines are not replacements for CPUs or GPUs but new teammates in a hybrid stack, each part doing what it does best. The goal is targeted advantage, not universal speedups, and the payoff arrives when the search space explodes beyond classical reach.Along the way, we zoom out to nature as our design mentor. Bacteria that fix nitrogen more efficiently than factories, plants that capture sunlight better than our best solar cells, human brains that run powerful cognition on twenty watts—these examples aren't trivia; they are roadmaps for engineering. By learning from natural intelligence and combining it with quantum algorithms, we can cut energy waste, shorten R&D cycles, and unlock better outcomes across industry and public services. Farai also shares his work leading the Africa Quantum Consortium, proving that the next wave of innovation is global, collaborative, and grounded in education.If you care about the future of computing, climate tech, logistics, and medicine, this conversation will sharpen your lens. Listen, subscribe, and share with someone who still thinks quantum is just sci‑fi. Then tell us: which real-world problem would you optimize first?Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!

Open Tech Talks welcomes Lirone Glikman, author of The Super Connectors Playbook, global speaker, and relationship-building strategist. We dig into practical ways founders, students, and leaders can build authentic relationships, present with clarity, and sustain a personal brand without sounding salesy, especially now that AI makes everyone's writing look the same. What's inside Online vs. in-person connection: generational differences, when a DM beats a coffee, and why Asia still loves business cards. Founders' common gaps: turning a product story into a people story; shifting from "it works" to "it resonates." Presenting without fluff: tailoring your story for investors, customers, and connectors, while keeping it true. The 90-List cadence: a simple routine for staying top-of-mind authentically. Anxiety is normal: why most people feel it, and how to start anyway. Introvert strength: listening, asking better questions, and using silence as a feature. Personal branding at work: define the promise others can rely on; show it with facts, data, and actions. Authenticity in the LLM age: keep your voice, your phrasing, your structure; let AI edit - not author - you. Share wins without bragging: swap claims for evidence and we-language. Using AI to deepen, not replace, connection: research context, adapt tone, draft follow-ups, keep the spark human.   Episode # 172 Today's Guest: Lirone Glikman, Founder, The Human Factor She is a globally recognized expert, keynote speaker, and best-selling author specializing in business relationships, personal branding, and global business development.

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with Kayla Quijas, founder of Kayla Q Career Coaching. Kayla's journey from cake decorator to Senior Project Manager at a global law firm is anything but conventional, and it's that transformation that fuels her work helping others break into and thrive in project management. At the heart of the discussion is Kayla's signature framework, the PM Readiness Iron Triangle, which focuses on three key pillars: credentials, experience, and network. You'll hear how to assess your readiness for a PM role, even if you don't come from a traditional background, and what to do if one leg of your triangle feels weak. In this conversation, Kayla shares practical ways to reframe your experience into project management language, advice for overcoming fear and imposter syndrome, and how to network without feeling sleazy or self-promotional. If you're looking for insights on how to grow your project management career—even if you're already PMP-certified—this episode is for you! Sound Bites "With this triangle, you need to be strong in at least two and then figure out where you're weak and shore that one up." "Before that, I was not getting any interviews. And then after that, I landed a project management job pretty quickly." "It is selfish not to share your thoughts because you're afraid people will judge you." "Networking doesn't have to be sleazy. Come at it from a give first perspective." "I got put on a PIP once for a project management job. That was one of the most sinking feelings that I had ever had." "Studying for the PMP, even if you don't take the test, can be a game-changer for your confidence and credibility." "Most of what you're doing in your current role is already project management. You just haven't labeled it that way yet." "You don't need a perfect resume to get hired. You need to tell a better story about your experience."

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova.    This week, I'm joined by Goldie Chan, who has been called the Oprah of LinkedIn. When LinkedIn first launched its native video, Goldie began posting daily short videos and has built one of the platform's longest-running video series. Goldie's videos feature a mix of personal branding and storytelling, thoughtful advice and generous spotlights on others. She's a storyteller, strategist, and a generous voice in the creator community. And now she's helping a whole new audience with her latest book, Personal Branding for Introverts, which comes out in October 2025. We're diving into how you can build influence quietly, confidently, on your own terms.   THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…anyone looking to grow their influence or build a personal brand, especially if you identify as an introvert or ambivert.   TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…you don't have to be the loudest voice in the room to have influence. Goldie Chan built a thriving community and career by showing that consistency, curiosity, and authenticity can be more powerful than volume. In this conversation, she shares how introverts can thrive in spaces that often reward extroversion.   KEY TAKEAWAYS: The real secret to personal branding isn't noise, it's consistency and credibility. Influence doesn't require extroversion, but it does require self-awareness and clarity. Strategic silence can be a leader's superpower in meetings and creative discussions. Confidence often starts with physical presence. Goldie shares some practical tips.   WHAT I LOVE MOST…Goldie's reminder that credibility doesn't come from being everywhere. It comes from being yourself consistently. Her story demonstrates that authenticity and quiet confidence can be just as powerful as a bold approach.   Running Time: 27:53   Subscribe on iTunes     Find Tiffani Online: LinkedIn Facebook X    Find Goldie Online: LinkedIn Website   Goldie's Book:  Personal Branding for Introverts

Send us a textBuyers choose the path of least resistance, and that truth can either fuel your growth or quietly stall it. We sit down with Vistage Chair and “No Hassle” advocate Jim Bramlett to break down a four-part framework that makes customers stop hesitating: convenience, price transparency, user experience, and trust. From Amazon and Netflix to Uber and Nebraska Furniture Mart, Jim shows how category leaders remove friction so thoroughly that buyers feel they have no excuse not to say yes.We dig into the Hassle Score and why benchmarking yourself against actual competitors—not your intentions—exposes the real gaps slowing revenue and referrals. Jim shares crisp examples of conscious trade offs between price, convenience, and experience, and then explores how to narrow those trade offs with smarter operating design and practical uses of AI to cut cycle time, clarify quotes, and elevate support without eroding trust. The conversation shifts to the leadership habits that sustain these gains: resilience when plans break, coaching as the core skill of influence, and the surprising power of peer advisory groups where 80 percent of issues center on people, not strategy.Expect a clear path to uncovering blind spots through better questions, building a culture where vulnerability invites help, and leading across generations with curiosity and clarity. If you're ready to simplify buying, earn repeat business, and turn word of mouth into a growth engine, this episode gives you the tools and the mindset to start now.If you found this useful, follow the show, share it with a teammate who owns the customer journey, and leave a quick review to help more leaders discover practical, no-hassle growth.Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!
