What if anxiety isn't something to fight, but something to work with? Dr. David Rosmarin believes anxiety is a natural emotion, not a disorder to fix.

He also explains how tech, pressure, and even well-meaning parenting have made anxiety more intense for all of us, especially kids. If you're tired of trying to “get rid of” anxiety and ready to handle it differently, this conversation offers a healthier way through.   About David H. Rosmarin, PhD: David H.

In over 175 episodes since launching this podcast, I've never had a repeat guest, until now.I'm excited to welcome back David Marks.David and I met in 2020, when I created a local STL Facebook group to support businesses during Covid — while I was still in medical device sales. He was one of the first people I interviewed. That video is still floating around YouTube, and it's wild to see how far we've come.Since then, he's supported me nonstop. He attended my first business event in 2021, was member #1 when we launched BOA in 2023, and has been a 1-1 coaching client and mastermind member.Last year, I had him on the podcast and it was a great episode.A few weeks ago, he asked to come back and share his firsthand BOA journey. I immediately said yes.David is the perfect example of what we teach at BOA, and I'm grateful he's sharing his story.David's Bio:My entrepreneurial story starts in Sep 2008 when I bought a “Garage With A House In The Front Yard.” In Dec 2009, I began working part-time, and by May 2011, what started with ZERO customers became a full-time business.In 2013, I added Used Auto Sales — people liked buying cars from a trusted technician. In 2016, I joined SCORE & the SBDC to learn how to become a true business owner. (Anyone can be a backyard mechanic — not everyone is a business owner.)In 2018, I launched Used Car Detective to inspect vehicles before purchase. By March 2019, I expanded to a 3-bay full-service facility in Maryland Heights, which allowed me to grow all three businesses: Quality Auto Repair And Tire, Quality Auto Sales, and Used Car Detective.To manage it all, I created DSM Auto Family, LLC.My businesses continue to grow with one core belief:People won't work with you if they don't feel appreciated. We live that out by providing trusted service every day.Connect with David:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/davidscottmarks  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidsmarks/  Business Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/qualityautorepairandtireautosales  Website: https://www.qualityautorepairtireautosales.com/   Personal Website: https://qualityautodave.com/ Builders of Authority:FREE Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/7685392924809322 BOA Mastermind: https://buildauthority.co/order-form-mastermind GoHighLevel Extended 30-day Free Trial w/TONS of Personal Branding Bonuses: http://gohighlevel.com/adammcchesney

I would say just, think about your story a lot. You have a story. Don't underestimate your story. Your story is a collective story of your parents, your neighborhood, your neighbors, your books. It's all part of your story, so don't underestimate your story. Please tell your story, talk about yourself, talk about, the environment you grew up in, things that bothers you. Talk about it. It matters a lot when we talk about our personal things. A lot of people, a lot of time people shy away, they avoid talking about themselves because they think it's showing off.  I don't think it's showing off. You are at your most authentic self when you just talk about your story as your story. So please don't underestimate your stories. We might pick up one of your stories and make a movie out of it.

Jeff and Becky dig into the broader implications of Sammy's work: What happens if Tropilaelaps enters North America? Are our current monitoring and response systems up to the task? And how are his graduate students pushing the boundaries of parasitology research? This episode is packed with science, storytelling, and urgency—and a few moments of humor (including a “don't-take-a-selfie-with-a-giant-bee-colony” cautionary tale). Whether you're new to beekeeping or have years behind the veil, this conversation is a must-listen.

She points out that instead of asking the question, "How am I to solve this challenge?" instead she asks "Who is going to help me solve it?" and how important it is especially for women entrepreneurs to remember that this is not a solo journey."We build trust by asking for help, not for offering it," - Tiffany DufuCheck out the Lavender oil She mentioned here: https://www.loccitane.com/en-us/lavender-essential-oil-15HE005L14.html?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAwtu9BhC8ARIsAI9JHakYQOFtck3W7LQ-KpAtBk8W3TC_D6NENUZoNCPYBYlUEDOnOqWzUsIaAnvVEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.dsL'OCCITANE Lavender OilConnect with her here:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tiffanydufuInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/tdufu/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoSIgKTfYRMmBreoNv_8-aALinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tiffanydufu/Personal Website: https://www.tiffanydufu.com/Her Company Website: https://www.weareluminary.com/luminary-crus

Understanding buyer psychology and leveraging storytelling can overcome common objections and build trust. Consistent learning and adaptation are vital for overcoming skepticism and improving skills over time.   Enhancing Phone Sales Through Tone and Inflection In the fast-paced world of automotive sales, mastering phone communication isn't just a skill—it's an art form. LA Williams, VP of Dealer Synergy, highlights a common pitfall: the lack of energy and enthusiasm when taking inbound calls. He humorously points out, "Our energy is not right. We'd be like Synergy Motors." Injecting energy into your voice is crucial for setting the right tone and capturing the caller's attention from the get-go. Williams emphasizes paying attention to not only what customers say, but also how they say it. The subtleties in tone, choice of words, and even pauses can reveal much about a caller's intent. As Williams advises, “You gotta hear,” meaning that a salesperson must attune their ears to these nuances. By asking thoughtful questions and engaging in a way that reflects the customer's language, you can build immediate rapport. "I'm just curious," or "Tell me more," are phrases that both engage the customer and provide deeper insights into their needs and desires. Such nuances extend beyond intro calls. Consider how energy and tone contribute when transitioning a skeptical caller to a quality lead. LA shares an all-too-common scenario: converting callers who've had negative automotive experiences into enthusiastic potential buyers. This transformation relies on infusing conversations with genuine warmth and curiosity, ensuring prospects feel heard and valued.   Storytelling as a Sales Tool In a world where buyers often distrust salespeople, storytelling stands out as a powerful tactic to establish credibility and build rapport. Williams delves into the art of sharing relevant narratives to sway hesitant buyers, emphasizing, “It's so interesting that you say that.” This technique helps to validate a customer's feelings while seamlessly pivoting the conversation towards a positive outcome. Consider the tale of the couple skeptical about getting a good trade-in value. By recounting a past customer's success story, Williams not only builds trust but illustrates dealership expertise and personal investment in customer satisfaction. These anecdotes aren't fabricated but strategically structured to highlight real customer experiences, as Williams illustrates: "If we could do something like that for him, just imagine what we could do for you." This approach illuminates how integrating relatable stories into phone sales can dismantle buyer apprehensions. By connecting emotionally through shared experiences, salespeople can gently guide conversations, allaying fears and deepening engagement. The authenticity of sharing and genuine curiosity about the customer's own journey can transform skeptics into committed, enthusiastic participants in the buying process.   Cultivating Trust in Short Timeframes One of the most intriguing discussions in the podcast revolves around establishing trust quickly over the phone. In phone sales, time is a luxury often absent, making initial impressions paramount. According to Williams, it's vital to repeat the customer's name, entering into what he calls "rapport mode." "Outside of someone's own voice," he explains, "their sweetest sound is their name." Repetition and the correct use of vocabulary also play significant roles in fostering trust. Simple phrases like "That's a great question" can elevate a standard interaction into a personalized experience. These words, paired with targeted storytelling and empathetic response strategies, can captivate and convert callers into loyal customers within minutes. Such approaches extend into broader strategic considerations, such as handling objections and turning skeptics into believers. LA poignantly shares a revelation: often, a sales representative's aversion to phone sales stems from misaligned expectations or an incomplete understanding of call dynamics. By revealing underlying metrics and demonstrating real success cases, Williams consistently shifts perceptions, opening the minds of even the most skeptical callers to what's genuinely possible. Ultimately, the beauty of phone sales lies in blending personal empathy with sharp, strategic communication. The podcast illustrates that with attention, adaptability, and authentic connection, sales professionals can break through barriers. As LA Williams shows, the journey to mastering phone sales is as much about growth in personal effectiveness as it is about understanding buyer psychology. As he closes the episode, “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with,” inviting us to elevate our game and transform every call into an opportunity for lasting impact.     Resources: Podium: Discover how Podium's innovative AI technology can unlock unparalleled efficiency and drive your dealership's sales to new heights.
