This episode opens a deeper doorway into what it truly means to be seen—not just by the world, but by yourself. Nimesh and Stacey explore the tender space between vulnerability and purpose and why being seen is often less about visibility and more about allowing your soul to step forward without hiding. They reflect on how old patterns, childhood experiences, and inner fears shape the way we show up—and how the current energetic shifts are pulling so many of us out of the shadows. Through lived experience, emotional honesty, and spiritual insight, they share the moments that invited them to rise, speak, and trust their truth, even when it felt uncomfortable. If you've been feeling the nudge to show more of who you are, express your voice, or let your story be witnessed, this conversation will speak directly to your heart.Key Themes✨ Being seen as a soul initiation✨ Vulnerability as a strength✨ Inner child wounds and visibility✨ Turning pain into purpose✨ Trusting your voice✨ Community, connection, and co-creationTakeaways✨ You are being asked to stop hiding✨ Your visibility deepens healing✨ Your story carries medicine for others✨ Fear softens in the presence of truth✨ Being witnessed is part of your evolutionSound Bites✨ Healing is a lifetime journey✨ Your voice is your gift✨ Trust it, trust it, trust itAlso available to watch on YouTube.If this episode resonates, please like, comment, and follow the podcast.Connect with Nimesh

We discuss why your aunt Sue probably shouldn't be doing your books, the difference between quality bookkeeping and data entry, and how a negative $250,000 bank account on a balance sheet is a pretty good sign something's gone horribly wrong. We explore the generational divide in how business owners value bookkeeping services, why price shopping for bookkeepers is a terrible idea, and what happens when you try to sell your business with $200,000 in phantom accounts payable. Highlights:Understanding why specialization matters because your general contractor isn't an electrician and your office assistant probably isn't a trained bookkeeper.The generational shift in how younger business owners view bookkeeping services compared to those who rely on family members and checkbooks.What quality bookkeeping actually includes beyond data entry and why investing in good systems and expertise pays off.Real examples of marketing gone wrong and how an experienced bookkeeper knows to spot inconsistencies to help business owners save money.The importance of monitoring your numbers closely especially during growth periods to avoid spending profit before securing your business foundation.Subscribe to Blue Collar BS for more real conversations about the business fundamentals that actually keep your company running.

If you ask most podcasters what they're doing to grow their show, the answers sound familiar: posting clips on social media, chasing consistency, experimenting with video, and hoping the algorithm finally notices them. But when you look at the data - real, self-reported data from creators who've been at this for years - a different story emerges. Growth isn't evenly distributed, and effort doesn't automatically translate into momentum. Some podcasts with massive audiences are shrinking, while smaller, focused shows are quietly compounding month over month. The gap isn't about talent or effort but it's truly about strategy.That's why my conversation with Jeremy Enns stopped me in my tracks. As the researcher behind the Podcast Marketing Trends Report, Jeremy looks past tactics and into patterns. What stood out most wasn't what podcasters should be doing, but what actually correlates with sustainable growth and what doesn't. Even more striking: his personal recommendation for podcasters who want to grow without ever touching social media. Not as a contrarian take, but as a data-informed one.Chapters:03:10 – Who took the Podcast Marketing Trends Report 2005 05:30 – Why Big Podcasts Are Shrinking While Small Shows Grow07:20 – You Don't Need a Large Audience to Build a Profitable Podcast09:55 – The Reality Behind Declining Podcast Growth Rates12:45 – Audio vs. Video: How Metrics Are Being Distorted16:50 – Do Social Platforms Actually Drive Podcast Growth?20:00 – Short-Form Video Builds Brands, Not Downloads28:40 – Why Email Is the Most Underrated Growth Channel37:05 – How to Grow a Podcast Without Social MediaResources mentioned in this episode:For the full list of links, resources and show notes, please visit:https://www.thepodcastspace.com/podcast/s4-112-what-300-podcasters-reveal-about-podcast-growth-in-2025-podcast-marketing-trends-report

We dive into what separates great customer service from terrible experiences using Steve's recent dealership visits as an example. On this episode we discuss how behavioral styles impact sales performance, why most customer service failures are actually leadership problems, and the critical difference between selling to someone versus letting them buy from you. We explore how sales managers can better support different personality types on their teams and why rigid scripts often create more problems than they solve. If you've ever wondered why your sales team isn't converting or why customers walk away frustrated, this conversation will give you the answers you need.Highlights:Understanding behavioral styles in sales roles and why putting the wrong personality type under pressure with rigid processes sets everyone up for failure.The sales manager mirror test because when your team isn't performing, look at how you're leading them before blaming the individual.Serving versus selling and why giving value through meaningful connections beats aggressive sales tactics every time.When scripts work and when they don't, plus how to balance process with empathy in customer facing roles.Why letting people buy from you creates better relationships and more sustainable business than always be closing ever will.Subscribe to Blue Collar BS for more honest conversations about leadership, sales, and what actually works in business.

Remember when Black Friday meant people fighting at store entrances and camping out for deals? We dive into how one of America's biggest shopping traditions became a ghost town in just five years and what it reveals about how businesses must constantly evolve.In this episode, we get nostalgic about our completely different Black Friday experiences. Brad loved the event getting up early, hitting Home Depot for tool deals, and making it a tradition. Steve? He watched the chaos on TV from his couch and wanted nothing to do with it. But here's the thing: whether you loved it or hated it, Black Friday as we knew it is dead.We discuss how COVID accelerated a massive shift from in-store to online shopping, giving consumers the ultimate "easy button." But we're predicting the pendulum is about to swing back. Retailers will start using "in-store only" deals to drive foot traffic again. Free shipping and returns can't last forever the pricing models have to adjust. We break down what this means for your business and how you need to stay ahead of these shifts.Plus, Brad shares his quest for a reasonably-priced outdoor TV (send recommendations!), and we talk about the generational tool gap younger folks don't even have basic wrenches and screwdrivers in their apartments anymore.Highlights:The Easy Button Has Limits - We predict tiered pricing is coming because businesses can't keep giving away free shipping and returns forever.In-Store Exclusives Are Coming Back - We're calling it now: retailers will reverse course and use "in-store only" deals to get foot traffic back.Early Opening Times Return - Expect stores to go back to 6-7am openings as they compete for shoppers again.The Generational Tool Gap - Younger generations don't have basic tools anymore, creating both a skills gap and opportunities for the trades. This could be a great gift idea...Whether you're hitting the (empty) stores this Black Friday or clicking "add to cart" from your couch, ask yourself: Is your business adapting to meet your customers where they are today?The market never stops moving. Consumer behavior shifts faster than ever. What worked five years ago doesn't work now and what works now might not work in two years.Join us in the Blue Collar BS community where we discuss business evolution, market trends, and strategies for staying ahead of the curve.

In this episode, Nimesh is joined by his friend, leadership coach and facilitator Neerja Bhatia, for a powerful conversation on self doubt, perception, and conscious leadership.Neerja shares how her spiritual journey and corporate leadership path came together, revealing how easily our minds create stories that disconnect us from others.

Are you torn between creating a dedicated social media account for your podcast or integrating it into your personal brand? You're not alone! In this episode of The Podcast Space, we'll break down the critical decision many podcasters face regarding social media as a podcaster. With my extensive experience in podcast marketing, I'll guide you through the nuances of this dilemma that keeps so many podcasters paralyzed and help you find the best path forward for your unique situation. As an award-winning podcast marketer, I've worked with podcasters and small business owners around the globe, and I've seen firsthand how your approach to social media can significantly impact your podcast's success. I emphasize that the choice between a dedicated account and your personal brand hinges on several factors: your personal goals, the resources at your disposal, and how you want to engage with your audience. Understanding these elements is essential for crafting effective podcasting strategies and achieving your podcasting goals. Throughout the episode, I'll present five critical questions that every podcaster should consider when deciding their social media strategy: What is the main goal of your account? How many platforms can you realistically manage? Are you ready to develop a comprehensive strategy? Do you want to go beyond the bare minimum? And how can your listeners publicly share and discuss your show? These questions are pivotal in shaping your podcast content strategy and ensuring that your social media efforts align with your overall podcast growth strategies. I also explore the pros and cons of both approaches. A personal account can be a powerful tool for those looking to build their personal brand, while a dedicated account can offer a clearer focus and more targeted marketing opportunities. Throughout this episode, I share tactical podcast advice and podcast marketing tips to help you make an informed decision that aligns with your vision. Ultimately, my goal is to encourage you to be intentional in your social media strategy for your podcast. By doing so, you can forge meaningful connections with your audience, enhance your podcast visibility, and increase listener engagement. Join me in this episode, as we navigate the world of social media for podcasters and equip you with the insights needed to avoid common podcasting mistakes and leverage your online presence effectively.
