Send us a textWhat if a single wake-up call could reorder your entire life—and finally align your work with what you value most? That's the spark behind this conversation with Peter Delatorre, who turned a prostate cancer diagnosis into a purpose-driven platform centered on authenticity, accountability, and the power of a no-excuses culture. We unpack how ruthless honesty—starting with yourself—becomes the foundation for leadership people trust and brands that actually keep their promises.We dig into the threads that ran through Peter's five-industry career—teaching and speaking—and how he rebuilt his platform to focus on keynote talks and corporate training that help teams grow stronger through challenge. You'll hear practical tools for emotional resilience, from naming your non-negotiable core values to eliminating the “blaming virus” and replacing “yes, but” with “I have decided.” We break down how to think bigger without drifting into fluff: belief expands vision, ownership eliminates excuses, and small, consistent steps beat perfect plans every time. If you've struggled to balance transparency with authority, Peter's approach shows how real stories, clear standards, and shared ownership strengthen credibility instead of weakening it.This episode is for leaders and creators who want to move beyond inspiration into action: converting wishes into decisions, building a daily reset for mindset and focus, and curating a circle that matches your next chapter. You'll leave with a simple playbook: tell the truth, choose your train, set your next stop, and invite the right people aboard. Someone is climbing the mountain you already crossed—share your map.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs a push, and leave a quick review so more people can find these conversations.

Episode #175: What happens when your tech setup is more of a tangled mess than a streamlined system? That's where Scott Woods and Alec Modica come in, transforming chaos into organization with their expertise in Managed Service Providers (MSPs). I recount my own tech challenges and how Scott's family-run business came to the rescue, setting up my studio's infrastructure and teaching me the importance of having the right tech partner. We explore the vital role MSPs play for businesses that lack the resources for an in-house IT department, sharing personal stories and insights into the dynamic MSP industry. Navigating the complex world of IT doesn't have to feel overwhelming, especially when you have a trusted MSP by your side. We delve into the shift from relying on a single IT person to embracing a comprehensive support system that not only addresses immediate needs but anticipates future challenges. Scott and Alec discuss the benefits of reducing key man risk, integrating IT services under one umbrella, and providing a personalized, white-glove experience that keeps businesses running smoothly. We also touch on the critical aspect of trust between a business and its MSP, emphasizing how this relationship can be as pivotal as the one with a personal accountant. But it's not all about tech talk! We sprinkle in stories of business growth and personal milestones, highlighting the vibrant culture within MSP companies and the excitement of launching the Business Technology Podcast. From themed photo shoots to upcoming family additions, Scott, Alec, and I share how personal and professional worlds intersect, reinforcing the idea that business is as much about relationships as it is about services. Whether you're a business owner seeking seamless IT solutions or simply curious about the human side of tech support, this episode offers a unique perspective on building successful partnerships in today's digital landscape.

In this episode of Hustle Inspires Hustle, Alex Quin breaks down practical, actionable strategies to help both e-commerce and service-based businesses succeed during Black Friday. He emphasizes the importance of keeping offers simple—such as clear tiered discounts or urgency-based service upgrades—to reduce friction and improve conversions. Alex stresses that successful marketing goes beyond flashy ads; it's about preparation across your funnel, creative assets, and backend systems. From fast-loading product pages to tight onboarding flows and accurate CRM tracking, every part of the customer journey needs to be ready.He also dives into content strategy and ad execution, encouraging brands to repurpose their top-performing content from earlier in the year with updated Black Friday messaging. Volume matters—especially with Meta's new Andromeda update—so having multiple creatives pre-approved and scheduled can lower costs and reduce last-minute stress. Whether paid or organic, campaigns should be well-structured and tracked meticulously. The core message? Black Friday isn't about hype—it's about execution, efficiency, and data-driven decisions.Episode Outline: [00:00] Welcome Back: Alex thanks listeners and sets up the Black Friday topic [00:15] Importance of Simplicity: Easy-to-understand offers and discounts [00:45] Service Business Tips: Creating urgency with bonuses and intro deals [01:10] Creative Strategy: Bold visuals, testimonials, and multi-format content [01:45] Funnel Tips: Fast product pages, clean checkout, single-action landing pages [02:10] Backend Systems: Fulfillment, calendar space, CRM, and onboarding readiness [02:40] Financial Modeling: Know your margins, track all costs [03:05] Repurposing Content: Use your best-performing content with new Black Friday angles [03:30] Meta Update & Scheduling: More creatives = lower cost; schedule everything early [04:00] Post-Purchase & Tracking: Upsells, LTV, CRM follow-ups, and clean analytics [04:20] Final Thought: Black Friday is about preparation, not just hypeWisdom Nuggets:Simplicity Sells: Your offer should be instantly understandable. Whether it's tiered discounts or bundled services, remove friction—no mental math or coupon codes.Urgency Wins: Black Friday thrives on limited-time offers. Add urgency through countdowns, limited bonuses, or time-sensitive upgrades to drive faster conversions.Prep the Back End: A killer front-end campaign fails without backend support. From ecom fulfillment to service onboarding systems, preparation prevents revenue leaks.Repurpose to Scale: Your best content from earlier in the year is your blueprint. Reuse proven assets with Black Friday messaging instead of creating from scratch.Track Everything or Risk Everything: If your data is off, your scaling efforts will fail. Ensure all pixels, UTMs, and analytics are accurate before campaigns go live.Power Quotes“The key is simplicity.

Send us a textBrand authority doesn't start with a logo—it begins with a decision about how you want to show up. We sit down with Ann Marie Sorrell, president and CEO of the Mosaic Group, to unpack the strategy, grit, and heart behind a 20‑year journey from West Palm Beach to a growing Caribbean footprint. Ann Marie breaks down positioning that goes beyond aesthetics, showing how message, culture, and behavior align to create trust. Then she gets practical about content: why story matters, how to tailor for each platform, and what it takes to move people from scrolling to action.The conversation turns personal and powerful as Ann Marie recounts surviving the recession, canceled contracts, and foreclosure by clinging to a single Plan A and a daily bias for execution. That resilience paved the way for a bold move during the pandemic—scaling a regional forum into the National Black Economic Conference with global voices and tangible resources for Black entrepreneurs. We talk about designing events around outcomes, not optics, and building communities that leave with pathways, not platitudes.Ann Marie also opens the door to a complex, high‑growth space: cannabis. When rooms stayed closed, she built a new table through Cannabisiac to advance equity, access, and education in a highly regulated industry. We explore how to turn advocacy into credibility, translate policy into opportunity, and help underrepresented founders participate across the value chain. Finally, she unveils Mosaic Global Group, a unified structure that ties marketing, tech, coworking, philanthropy, and M&A into one platform built for scale and impact.If you're a founder, marketer, or leader hungry for clear positioning, smarter content, and resilient execution, this conversation is your playbook for turning vision into a movement.

If you're tired of spending every Monday scrambling to create content for the week or feeling like you're constantly behind on your marketing, this episode will completely transform how you approach content creation. Today I'm sharing my Marketing Marathon framework, which allows me to create an entire month's worth of content across 6 different platforms in just 3 focused days. Batching content is a way of working smarter, not harder and it doesn't need to be exhausting.  I used to do content creation weekly, dedicating every Monday to marketing, and while it worked for a while, I started hitting roadblocks when I wanted to get more creative or when I had travel or time off. Instead of forcing a system that wasn't working, I analyzed what was actually causing the bottlenecks and created a solution that fits my current season of business. The key to this framework is preparation. I never show up to ideate during my Marketing Marathon. I come with content topics already collected throughout the month, a calendar strategy for Instagram, custom templates from my Sales Studio team, and a clear plan for what gets done on which day. This allows me to focus purely on execution, which is why I can record five podcast episodes back-to-back without breaking a sweat. I'm breaking down the exact 3-day structure: Day 1 for video and audio recording (highest energy), Day 2 for Instagram content creation (medium energy), and Day 3 for writing and scheduling (lowest energy). Plus, I'm sharing all the prep work that makes this possible and why separating ideation from creation is absolutely crucial. In today's episode, we're talking about: Why weekly content creation was burning me out  The 3-day Marketing Marathon structure  The preparation that makes this framework possible  Why ideation and execution must be separated  How custom templates and delegation through Sales Studio makes the design process seamless and fast Connect with me:  Website Join our email list!

If you're ready to rethink what your brand says about you and how it can fuel your next chapter, this is the conversation you need to hear.We welcome Jess Jensen from Co-pilot Communications, a female-owned personal branding and executive communications expert, based in Oregon. We have a conversation that goes far beyond marketing strategy. Jess shares her unique approach to building authentic executive brands, helping leaders tap into their stories, define the legacies they want to leave, and connect meaningfully with both their teams and broader audiences. Jess offers a 25-minute consultation that can be booked directly via her website. She also mentions a free LinkedIn profile review for Spirit of EQ listeners (October/November availability — just mention the podcast when booking).Together, we explore the intersection of emotional intelligence and personal branding, why vulnerability and storytelling build trust, and how anyone—not just corporate execs—can benefit from thinking intentionally about their “brand.” Jess also offers actionable steps for getting started, insight from her time in the tech industry, and a few musical analogies that perfectly hit the right note. For those wondering about practical steps, Jess offered a high-level outline of her five-step process for brand building:Define your primary audience—who are you really trying to reach? Clarifying their needs and challenges is crucial before anything else.Craft your narrative platform—determine two to four key “story territories” (often business-related, leadership philosophy, and personal/passion areas) that form the pillars of your brand.Architect intentional content that reinforces those narratives, staying focused despite the temptation to react or go off-brand.Master one digital platform at a time, whether audio, LinkedIn, or another channel, and only expand as you gain confidence and rhythm.Build relationships in the comments and interactions—don't just broadcast, but truly foster a two-way conversation that builds community and trust.In each episode, Jeff and Eric will talk about what emotional intelligence, or understanding your emotions, can do for you in your daily and work life.

Want to be seen as the go‑to expert in your space?  Start with a book. Not just for sales, but for shaping a brand that people recognize, trust, and remember. This is a special episode where I joined Christine on the Your Daily Writing Habit. I shared how, over 14 years at The brandiD, I've helped entrepreneurs, authors, and thought leaders grow their businesses online. Why Your Book Can Be the Fastest Path to Authority If you want to be recognized as the go-to expert in your field, a book is one of the most powerful tools you can create. It packages your expertise into something tangible, builds instant credibility, and works as intellectual property you can monetize and leverage.  Self-publishing can generate direct income, but the bigger value is in what the book leads to: higher-ticket client work, keynote invitations, workshops, and programs that deepen your authority. How to Keep Your Book Working for You Long After Launch Your book shouldn't gather dust once it's published. Pull out key ideas or stories and turn them into social posts and blog articles to keep your message in circulation. Offer a free chapter to grow your email list. Use it to pitch media interviews, local speaking engagements, or library events that connect you with new audiences. And most importantly, get clear on your visibility goals first—whether that's a TEDx stage or building a loyal local following—so every action you take moves you closer to that vision.

Send us a textThe digital marketing landscape is undergoing a radical transformation. While SEO professionals have spent years mastering Google's algorithm, the rise of AI-powered answer engines like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini is creating an entirely new paradigm for online visibility.Kevin Roy, founder of Green Banana SEO, reveals a startling statistic: 60% of Google's 405 billion monthly searches are now "zero-click" searches, where users get answers without visiting websites. This fundamental shift requires businesses to rethink their approach to digital visibility.Roy introduces us to "answer engine optimization," explaining how AI models differ from traditional search engines. Unlike keyword-focused algorithms, these language models—"built by linguists, not developers"—are inherently conversational. They don't just match keywords; they aim to create comprehensive stories about businesses and their offerings.For businesses seeking visibility in this new landscape, Roy offers practical advice that goes beyond conventional SEO wisdom. Small businesses should leverage reviews strategically, responding to customer feedback with location-specific language. Website schema markup becomes increasingly important as AI models use this structured data to understand your business context. Tools like wakeai.io can reveal what information AI engines might be seeking but not finding on your website.What makes this conversation particularly valuable is Roy's balanced perspective. While embracing the technological shift, he reminds us that "people buy from people"—the human connection remains essential in the AI age. Personal branding, authorship, and establishing expertise become even more critical as ways to build trust with both algorithms and audiences.Whether you're a small business owner, marketing professional, or digital strategist, this episode provides actionable insights for navigating the evolving search landscape. How will you adapt your digital presence to ensure visibility not just on Google, but in the AI-powered tools reshaping how people find information online?Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!

Send us a textWhat if the secret to women's health lies not in treating symptoms, but in understanding the unique patterns beneath them? Andrea Corleto discovered this truth the hard way, navigating her own chronic illness journey through a healthcare system that often left her questions unanswered. That frustrating experience sparked the creation of Lyv Health – a personalized longevity platform designed specifically for women.The shocking reality is that women spend 25% more time in poor health than men. While men maintain relatively stable hormonal states throughout their lives, women experience dramatic shifts during various life stages – from postpartum recovery to perimenopause and beyond. These transitions often bring symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, mood swings, and night sweats that traditional healthcare approaches may dismiss or inadequately address.Lyv Health takes a fundamentally different approach by combining comprehensive biomarker testing with AI-powered analysis and human clinical support. By examining approximately 70 different biomarkers, the platform identifies the underlying causes of symptoms, including hormonal imbalances, nutrient deficiencies, and metabolic issues. This data-driven approach doesn't just address immediate health concerns; it also reveals early warning signs for conditions like cardiovascular disease, the leading killer of women.What makes this approach truly revolutionary is its ability to balance cutting-edge technology with essential human connection. While artificial intelligence processes vast amounts of health data in minutes (tasks that would take human clinicians weeks), real healthcare professionals review all insights and provide personalized support. This combination creates a healthcare experience that addresses both scientific and emotional needs – something Andrea wished existed during her own health struggles.Whether you prefer natural approaches through nutrition and supplements or need medication-based interventions, Lyv Health offers personalized recommendations that fit your lifestyle and preferences. Ready to understand what's really happening beneath your symptoms? Visit lyvhealth.co to learn how data-driven insights could transform your health journey.Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!
