In today's episode, Becket Cook interviews Richard Matthews about his viral TikTok video detailing how he was fired from his New York City job for posting Christian content and sharing his testimony of being rescued by God from homosexuality during Pride Month. Matthews recounts growing up in a single-parent home in Georgia without a father figure, facing bullying, discovering same-sex attraction through early internet pornography, battling porn addiction, depression, and anxiety, and ultimately choosing to fully follow Jesus after years of struggle with the gay lifestyle and "gay Christian" ideas. Richard describes his powerful rooftop encounter with God, the freedom found in Scripture and community at V1 Church, the launch of Redeemption Ministries, and how authenticity about leaving same-sex attraction has opened doors for digital evangelism, podcasts, and equipping the church on biblical sexuality and the gospel. https://youtube.com/@richwithpassion?si=NOGKsPuHZP4wjtjp https://www.therichardmatthews.com The Becket Cook Show Ep. 251 Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

In this episode of Wealth on the Beach Club, Daniel talks about the growing impact of AI on business and how tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini can be used in different areas of your work. The conversation then shifts to rebuilding a business, changing your mindset, setting measurable goals, and understanding your business through numbers. Daniel also explains why simply posting other people's quotes and content isn't enough. To build influence, you need to become the person your audience follows, recognizes, and trusts. He shares how consistent social media content has helped generate real business and recruiting opportunities, and why showing up every day can make social media a powerful part of your business strategy
"The message that you will only see proper and consistent success if you have a crazy number of eyes on you is one of the biggest lies you've ever been told."If you're building a business right now and wondering why the strategies that used to work suddenly aren't working anymore, you're not imagining it. The game has changed but that doesn't mean it's over.In this chat, I'm breaking down one of the biggest lies entrepreneurs have been sold: that you need more followers, more views, more content, and more visibility to make more money. You don't.Social media can absolutely help grow your business, but it should be a way, not the way. Instead of chasing algorithms and constantly trying to get in front of more people, I'm sharing why your focus needs to shift back to the fundamentals that build sustainable businesses. Yes, we're talking sales, relationships, repeat customers, and knowing exactly how much money you actually need to make. Don't Miss This Chat On:Why more followers don't automatically mean more moneyHow to grow a business without relying on social mediaWhy sales skills matter more than learning the latest algorithmThe 1,000 True Fans strategy and what it means for your businessHow to calculate your true income goal and reverse engineer your salesWhy going deep with the audience you already have can beat constantly chasing more visibilityHow real relationships create a more sustainable businessYou do not need to go viral to build a business that works. You need the right people, a product you believe in, and the willingness to actually ask for the sale.It's not over yet.

Watch this episode HEREOkay guys, I've been wanting to talk about this for a WHILE but have been too nervous to do so....Today we're talking about posting children online....the risks, privacy, consent, family vloggers, Hollywood and predators.....I know I hold a very unpopular opinion here, so I'm very curious to hear what you guys think. As always, I think every family has to make the decisions that are right for them, but I have a LOT of thoughts on where this conversation has gone culturally and what we might be missing in regards to what it means to "stay safe"....Maybe I'll need to make a part 2....Episode sponsors: (Thank you in advance for shopping my links!

I seem to have pissed off the fraudsters — multiple raging psychos sent me threats over the weekend, including the owner of an Indian restaurant in New Jersey. He tried to quickly delete the threatening message ... but I got the screenshot first. Now he's threatening to sue ME for exposing his own words. There are consequences for your actions, and this would not be the first time I've gotten someone convicted over sending threats my way. The Left continues to advocate for more violence and face no consequences for it. Radical commie Hasan Piker spent the weekend mocking the assassination of Charlie Kirk — yet he's somehow still put on a pedestal by the Left. The Trump administration is really starting to crack down on visa fraud — and bringing back a new and improved $100,000 H-1B fee. Vice President JD Vance mentions that this type of fraud is one of the administration's top priorities. Who's to say who can and can't play in the WNBA? Former NBA player and aspiring WNBA player Enes Kanter Freedom showed up at a WNBA game wearing a shirt with the definition of “woman" — but it was too much for one of the players, who lost it. Somehow Enes was targeted and ejected from the stadium in what could be a big transphobic hate crime committed by the league. ► Catch up on my H-1B visa investigations: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkJEwf2wliqrtNlYs9D78nmE_Gnja_PpC ► Email me at saratips@blazemedia.com if you have uncovered potential fraud in your area. ► Subscribe to my second YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@SaraGonzalesTX?sub_confirmation=1 0:00 - Exposing Threats Against Me 7:20 - Indian Restaurateur THREATENS Me 27:52 - Hasan Piker Mocks Charlie Kirk 35:16 - JD Vance Warns H-1B Fraudsters 40:24 - WNBA Hate Crime Learn more about your ad choices.

Join the Millionaire University AI Mastermind at MillionaireUniversity.com/AI #1048 LinkedIn isn't just a “nice to have” anymore — it might be the fastest way to build real B2B pipeline if you know how to play the game! In this episode, host Brien Gearin sits down with Shamus Madan, founder of Dealroom Media, to break down how his team helps founders go viral on LinkedIn and turn content into sales conversations. Shamus shares his origin story (starting a podcast at 15, working his way up to landing Mark Cuban), the hard pivot that saved his business after nearly running out of money, and the simple system they use today: biweekly founder interviews, turning those into high-performing posts, scheduling + approvals, and tracking results. They also unpack the difference between “virality” vs. “pipeline content,” the three ingredients of a winning LinkedIn hook, how often to post, what actually matters on your profile, and why content-first companies will win the next decade! (Original Air Date - 12/22/25) What we discuss with Shamus: + LinkedIn as a pipeline engine + Virality vs. pipeline content + Founder-led personal brands + Three-part viral hook formula + Biweekly SME interviews + Content from conversations + Posting frequency (3–5/week) + Profile optimization basics + Month-to-month client model + Content-first growth strategy Thank you, Shamus!

Is your Meta ad account stuck at the same growth level? We can run a growth diagnostic and recommend the right strategy to scale your business.Talk to us at https://www.tiereleven.com/apply Posting more content doesn't automatically mean better results. One of our favorite clients learned that the hard way after posting 156% subscriber growth in under six months. Such growth never sustains on autopilot, and figuring out why is what separates a good agency from a great one.In this episode, Tier 11 growth strategist Thomas Mcnaught joins me to unpack the full growth diagnostic we ran for the client. We cleaned up messy attribution data, discovered 10-minute video ads with a 0.01% completion rate, and made the counterintuitive call to kill state-specific targeting entirely, letting Meta's algorithm do what it does best.The result? A 20-25% CAC reduction in one week, with more upside coming. We get into creative diversification, campaign consolidation, and why Google and Meta aren't competing but assisting each other. Listen in and then review your ad account for the same red flags. In This Episode:- The importance of building a true source of truth across platforms- Optimizing Meta Ads using better campaign structure and data- Why long-form video ads may be hurting creative performance- How creative diversification improves Meta Ads results- The dangers of overly specific state and location-based targeting- Optimizing customer acquisition cost instead of vanity metrics- How Meta, Google Ads, YouTube, and organic traffic work together- Using media efficiency ratio and attribution tools to measure growthMentioned in the Episode: Part 1 of the Case Study: https://perpetualtraffic.com/podcast/episode-792-156-more-app-subscribers-in-six-months-heres-how-we-did-it/ Tier 11's Data Suite: https://www.tiereleven.com/what-we-do/data-suiteDownload Your Copy of Tier 11's Marketing Performance Indicators (MPIs): https://www.tiereleven.com/marketing-performance-indicators Join Ralph Burns and John Moran every Friday for The Ad Lab Live: https://www.youtube.com/@Tier11/streams Wicked Reports: https://www.wickedreports.com/ Listen to This Episode on Your Favorite Podcast Channel:Follow and listen on Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/perpetual-traffic/id1022441491 Follow and listen on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/59lhtIWHw1XXsRmT5HBAuK Subscribe and watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@perpetual_traffic?sub_confirmation=1We Appreciate Your Support!Visit our website: https://perpetualtraffic.com/ Connect with Thomas McnaughtWebsite: https://www.thomasmcnaught.com/ Connect with Ralph Burns: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ralphburns Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ralphhburns/ Hire Tier11 - https://www.tiereleven.com/apply-now Mentioned in this episode:https://perpetualtraffic.com/advertise-with-us/
Recently I've really questioned why I struggle to show up consistently on social media... Posting is essential for me in order to grow my audience, promote my offers, podcast, and grow this community. So when I feel confused and struggle to show up it is honestly paralyzing. I start to question my self, "Am I even cut out for this?" "How do I even come back to posting again" and so many unsupportive thoughts that clearly get me no where. In this episode I breakdown 4 reasons that might be holding you back from making your next move, wether you are struggling to show up on social media, maybe you are sitting on an idea you've been wanting to take action on, you haven't asked for the promotion or raise, or you haven't started taking care of your health. Whatever it is you are stuck on, you are more than likely letting one of these four things hold you back. Reason #1: Identity attachments: whether you are attaching yourself to old identities or new ones that aren't allowing you to see yourself as the next version of yourself Reason #2: You are afraid to be seen. Not seen like showing up, but actually be seen. For example you are afraid to share what you stand for or share your hot takes. You often question yourself: what if I come off the wrong way? Reason #3: You struggle with consistency: You show up consistently for a few weeks and then find yourself burnt out taking a long break from your goals. You use excuses like, "I don't have enough time" or "I have too much on my plate already". Reason #4: You have Decision Fatigue: You have too many options and no frame work. You spend most of your time thinking about new ideas instead of sticking with one, making a plan, and taking action. I don't know about you, but recently I found myself letting a bit of all of these hold me back from getting back into what I love to do most, empower women to take action and become the Mujerón of their dreams. I allowed more than one of these reasons to stop me from recording my podcast ("I don't have time for it), to start selling my offers ("I'm currently going through a rut myself, how am I supposed to help women?), or posting on social media one week and ghost for the next week. We are no longer allowing these reasons to hold us back, amiga. I hope this episode helps you step into your Next Chapter. Sonia
Mark Ostach is back on the show, and this one wanders in the best way. We get into why our attention spans are measurably shrinking, why he's "pro-presence" instead of anti-tech, and how showing up as your actual, unpolished self does more for your business than another funnel ever will. Then Mark makes a case for treating events and in-person rooms as a real line item in your marketing budget — with a couple of examples that'll make you rethink where your ad dollars are going. Key Takeaways Presence is a business skill now, not just a life skill. Mark's Law says our attention spans drop by two seconds every decade since 2000 — and that "life lagging" shows up in how slowly you do everything, including your work. Know like and trust starts with know. The behind-the-scenes, slightly goofy stuff you're afraid to post is exactly what makes people want to work with you — and it repels the clients who were never a fit anyway. Budget for rooms, not just algorithms. Figure out what an average client is worth, decide what you'd pay to land one, then spend that on getting in front of actual humans instead of hoping the feed cooperates. You don't have to be on social to build a profitable business. Posting feels productive. Knocking on doors, buying someone lunch, and showing up at the event is productive. Quotes "I'm not anti-tech. I love my phone, I use it often, probably sometimes too much. But I'm pro-presence." — Mark Ostach "We've made the funnels and all of the things so much harder for people to buy from us, because we're not showing up as our real selves." — Ryan Koral "Be where your people are, get in the room with the people you aspire to be like, and that'll pay dividends for years to come." — Mark Ostach "How much would I pay for a $17,000 client? I'd spend a thousand dollars every day of the week." — Ryan Koral "You need to believe in your work as much as she did — not because you want the picture, but because you believe someone needs what you have." — Mark Ostach (recounting speaker coach Bill Hampton) In this episode [00:00] Welcome to the show!

With Sean Oliver setting sail on a cruise, Steve Kaufmann and Dom D'Angelo step up to the plate to join Kevin Nash for a brand new episode. The guys tackle the internet's latest burning topics, including the surprising online chatter surrounding Roman Reigns and the debate over his status in the industry. However, Kevin offers some candid perspective on the current state of the wrestling product and explains why he is more than happy spending his summer days soaking up the beach life instead of watching weekly television.

Fans will be laughing out loud as they hear how a seasoned airline employee stepped in to handle the madness with the ultimate action movie attitude. Things take an unexpectedly intense turn when the discussion shifts toward societal decline and ultimate survival strategies. Kevin breaks down his meticulously planned apocalypse preparations, detailing everything from silent solar generators to serious home defense tactics.

Doing It Online : The Doable Online Marketing Podcast with Kate McKibbin
I don't care whether my posts get engagement. My ego cares. My business does not.There are two completely different ways to do content, and almost nobody names the second one. So most people spend years forcing themselves to be the first type, feeling like a failure when they can't keep it up, and never finding out there was another option the whole time.I was recently at a mastermind where someone shared that they post almost ten pieces of content a day, and that posting more is their number one growth strategy. It works. It also takes a team of nine people.If you've been quietly convinced you're just bad at content, and you're tired of trying to keep up with people who clearly love it more than you do... this episode is for you.How do you know which type you actually are? Why can a post that gets three likes still be the thing that makes you real money? What are the two layers sitting underneath your content that hardly anyone talks about, and why do you only have to build them once? And what is the third layer, the one that costs about ten dollars a day and is cutting the time it takes someone to go from finding you to being ready to invest from six months down to about fourteen days?

Everyone tells you to post more and stay consistent, but more content isn't a strategy, and it's why most coaches and online business owners are stuck. In this podcast I break down the exact content strategy I use to grow my own business and teach inside The Circle: get ruthlessly clear on who you're talking to, create content across three levels, and pick one platform to go deep on before you expand.

Marketing gets exhausting when every platform, conference, and industry trend comes with the message that your practice should be doing more. More posts, more videos, more channels, more events. But a high volume of marketing activity does not automatically lead to better clients or more profitable growth. In this episode, I sit down with Robin Dimond, founder and CEO of Fifth & Cor, to talk about building a marketing strategy around the business you actually have. We cover how to choose channels based on your budget, bandwidth, and target demographic; when a personal brand helps or hurts the practice; and why reputation, local partnerships, and consistent patient education can outperform whatever happens to be trending online. Fix the Patient Journey Before You Generate More Leads Marketing brings more attention to whatever is already happening inside the practice. If calls go unanswered, the booking process is frustrating, or the team is not prepared to follow up with leads, spending more money will only expose those problems faster. Look at the full patient experience before adding another campaign. Can someone easily book a consultation? Does the team know how to respond to inquiries? Are you attracting people who are a good fit for the practice? Strong marketing cannot make up for operational gaps that prevent interested patients from becoming long-term clients. Choose Marketing Channels With a Clear Reason Behind Them You do not need to be active on every platform simply because another practice is doing it. The right marketing mix depends on who you want to reach, how they make decisions, and what your team can consistently manage. Budget planning also needs to account for time and energy—not just the money spent on ads or content creation. Define what the marketing initiative needs to accomplish before choosing a channel Identify where your target demographic spends time and what mindset they are in on each platform Set a realistic budget for both financial investment and team capacity Test one or two strategies on a small scale before expanding into omnichannel marketing Batch and repurpose content across Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube Shorts, or Pinterest when those platforms fit the audience Consider direct mail, local partnerships, conference attendance, and public relations alongside digital marketing Track qualified leads, booked consultations, client acquisition costs, and patient retention instead of relying on views or engagement alone Give the team a clear role in content creation and follow-up so the strategy does not depend entirely on the owner Consistency matters, but it needs to be sustainable. A focused strategy that your team can maintain will usually produce better information and stronger results than constantly switching tactics or chasing the newest trend. (00:03:42) Navigating an overwhelming number of marketing options (00:05:29) Fixing operational gaps before generating more leads (00:12:31) Understanding client mindsets across different platforms (00:17:27) Standing out with handwritten cards and direct mail (00:26:50) Building a sustainable social media strategy (00:30:16) Balancing personal branding with long-term business goals (00:43:37) Measuring marketing by results instead of effort Your Practice Reputation Has to Extend Beyond the Owner A personal brand can help patients connect with the practice, but it becomes a risk when every relationship, referral, and piece of recognition is tied to the owner. Bring providers and team members into the outward-facing side of the business so patients see the depth of expertise across the practice and trust the experience no matter who they see. Sharing continuing education, patient education, community involvement, and team accomplishments builds a stronger reputation than relying on one personality alone. That matters when you want to add providers, reduce your clinical hours, or eventually sell, because a brand that can stand without the founder is much easier to scale. The Best Marketing Makes Growth Easier to Manage When the strategy is focused, the financial reports become easier to interpret. You can see which channels produce qualified consultations, which local partnerships bring in the right patients, and whether your client acquisition costs make sense relative to the value of those relationships. Marketing stops feeling like an open-ended expense because every initiative has a purpose and a way to measure its performance. As the practice grows, consistency matters more than constant visibility. A team-supported brand, a clear message, and a small group of channels that reliably attract the right clients are easier to manage and repeat across providers or locations. You should not have to spend every spare moment creating content just to keep the business moving. The strategy should support the practice without taking over your life.

The producers you want are watching you before they ever reply, and a rate sheet doesn't make anybody want to follow you. You know you need to be visible, but every time you show up, the only thing you know how to talk about is rates or products, and it isn't landing. Here's what I want you to walk away with today. You build authority by becoming the most valuable, most visible voice in your market, and you can do that without ever leading with a rate or a product. I'll give you a five-move framework to get there. Episode Breakdown [00:01:07] The Leader Who Got Louder When the Market Went Quiet I coached a leader whose market got wrecked by a hurricane. Homes gone, business frozen, and everybody in the industry went quiet and hunkered down. That's what most people do when things get hard, they disappear. I coached him to do the opposite, to become the single most visible person in that marketplace. He started a weekly webinar, not to pitch his company but to help, bringing in the people his market needed to hear from and answering the questions everybody was too scared to ask. He wasn't talking about his rates, he was talking about what his market needed. Within a few months he wasn't just another loan officer in a broken market, he was the authority everybody turned to. Authority doesn't come from selling. It comes from being the most valuable voice in the room. [00:02:03] Move 1: See Yourself as a Media Company First Most leaders think of themselves as a mortgage pro who happens to post online now and then. Flip that. You're a media company that happens to do mortgages, because attention is what earns the conversation, and content is how you earn attention. [00:02:32] Move 2: Talk to the People You Want to Recruit, Not the People You Want to Close This is the most common mistake I see. A leader's content speaks to consumers or to agents, the people he sells to, when the people he's trying to recruit are loan officers. If you want to attract producers, make content that speaks to producers, about leadership, about growth, about the things they lie awake thinking about. [00:03:00] Move 3: Give Value in Public The fastest way to build authority is to solve real problems out loud where everybody can see it. Answer the questions your market is afraid to ask, teach what you know. When you're the one consistently giving value away, you become the one people trust long before you ever make an ask. [00:03:23] Move 4: Feature Other People Authority isn't only about you talking. Some of the most powerful positioning comes from putting other respected voices on your platform, the way that leader did with his webinar. When you're the one convening the room, you're the authority in it, even when you aren't the one speaking. [00:03:43] Move 5: Curate, Don't Just Create You don't have to produce something brand new every single day. Knowing your market cold and pointing people to the three things that matter most this week is its own form of authority. Curation beats constant creation, because being the trusted filter is often worth more than being one more voice adding to the noise. [00:04:05] Why It Works Producers vet you before they ever reply, and a rate sheet tells them nothing about whether you're worth following. Value tells them everything. When you consistently give without asking, you flip the whole dynamic, and instead of chasing producers you become the person they seek out. That's the difference between visibility that's just noise and authority that recruits. One is about being seen, the other is about being trusted, and trust is what makes someone pick up the phone when you finally reach out. [00:04:45] Your Small Win Tonight Write down the three questions the producers in your market are quietly worried about right now. Not your customers, your future recruits. Just naming those three is your win, because that list is your content for the next month. [00:05:00] Three Bigger Moves This Week Publish one piece of content that answers one of those questions and mentions your rates and products nowhere, so your market starts seeing you as a leader instead of a lender. Invite one respected voice in your market onto something you host, a call, a webinar, a post, so you become the one convening the room. Then pick one thing you'll curate for your market every week, so you build the habit of being the trusted filter, and when you show up as the authority your whole team gets easier to recruit into because people already know who you are. Key Takeaways You build authority by becoming the most valuable, most visible voice in your market, and you can do it without ever leading with a rate or a product. When the market goes quiet, get louder. Visibility in a hard season is how you become the authority everybody turns to. You're not a mortgage pro who posts now and then. You're a media company that happens to do mortgages. Most leaders aim their content at the people they close, not the people they recruit. If you want producers, speak to producers. Give value in public and you become trusted long before you ever make an ask. When you convene the room, you're the authority in it, even when you're not the one speaking. Producers vet you before they reply. A rate sheet tells them nothing, value tells them everything. If you want help building authority in your market without leading with a rate, reach out.

Posting good content stopped working the moment everyone could make it. Katelyn Bourgoin knows both sides of that shift: Forbes hyped her startup as the next LinkedIn for women entrepreneurs, it went bankrupt anyway, and she rebuilt from zero into a one-woman business built on a single ownable idea, buyer psychology, now read by more than 63,000 marketers. This episode is about the move that made the difference: becoming known for one idea instead of chasing visibility everywhere.In this conversation, we get into:- The real reason Justin Welsh owns the word "solopreneur" when someone else coined it years earlier- Why your most valuable idea feels too obvious for you to notice and how outsiders spot it in minutes- A live teardown where Katelyn runs her framework on my own idea in real time- The one-week assignment that surfaces the idea you could become known forIf you are an expert whose reputation is smaller than your skill, this conversation shows what to build instead of another content calendar.

Posting more doesn't always equal earning more and for some designs, it's the fastest route to burnout. I'm joined by my client and fellow marketing pro Charlie Garnham, a 5/1 projector business coach, to tell the truth about what happens when you stop performing for the Instagram algorithm and start building a personal brand that actually matches your energy.Charlie is in my Souled Out Offers by Design program and shares how much it's helped her grow her business in this past 12 months. Being part of what's led to her now 4x her corporate income in just a few hours a day!Then we get into the messy middle: the pressure to prove you're a “real” marketing expert when a post flops, the temptation to chase trends, and the constant background noise that says success only counts if it's louder, bigger, and more visible. Charlie shares what changed when she stopped trying to squeeze projector wisdom into short-form content and leaned into long-form marketing like podcasts and YouTube. We also talk about client attraction through invitations, including guest speaking, online summits, and podcast interviews that let you deliver one strong message and then rest.We unpack the projector lifestyle as a real business strategy: boundaries with social media, more space on the calendar, and the mindset shift from doing equals worth to spaciousness equals magnetism. Then we zoom out to the coaching industry's favourite myths, including follower count as a proxy for credibility, and “no ads” marketing that quietly replaces money cost with energy cost.We wrap with a practical look at offer refinement and why a purpose-built AI marketing assistant like Sellina can feel wildly different from generic ChatGPT or Claude prompts because it's built on methodology and process, not just information.If you're craving aligned marketing, human design business strategy, and a calmer way to grow high-ticket offers, hit play.

A creator who built a following representing women who rarely saw themselves online. "There's so many of us out there."How did she get started in content creation? Posting on the side while at Cal State Northridge and the MAC counter. "I really felt like I was doing a bajillion different things." TikTok took off, and she chose creation over law school.What did she learn at MAC Cosmetics? That inclusivity could be a foundation. "Every shade of the foundation that you can" imagine was there.How do you build a following with no blueprint? Relentless trial and error. "There will be hundreds of my videos that have flopped... and you have to pick your butt back up and keep creating."How does she keep content relatable across cultures? By reworking revealing trends into modest looks. "We are the brown girls where we can't really show... so let's make this a little bit more modest."How does she handle online hate and cancel culture? By refusing to let it take root. "If you just allow those comments to take over, you're going to go into such a dark place that getting out is going to be very difficult."Where is influencer marketing headed? Creators replacing traditional ads. "People trust the influencers, and when you relate to a content creator, it brings such a powerful take on why brands should work with you."How does she vet brand deals? Authenticity first.

Not how people assume. "Just because you make content does not mean you're gonna be rich." Her first brand deal paid about a thousand dollars.Why do content creators need a plan B?

Posting every day. Chasing the trending audio. Making one more clip that's dead by tomorrow morning. And then getting up and starting over. That's the wide path. It works for some people, and I'm not going to pretend it doesn't. But I don't think it's the one God called you to. In this episode I'm sharing what happened when my entire YouTube platform got shut down two hours after I posted my testimony of Christ. What I built in its place. And the one time I mentioned an application link on this podcast and over 250 women applied. I want to show you the narrow path. Long form content that keeps working for you years from now, and keeps preaching after you're gone. If you're tired of the hamster wheel, this one's for you. Key Points 1. The hamster wheel works. It just isn't the only road, and it isn't free. Mia is careful not to condemn social media. Plenty of people are getting real results there. But daily short form content demands your attention constantly, dies within 24 hours, and makes you start over every morning. The question isn't whether it works. The question is whether it's the life God called you to. 2. Losing everything overnight taught her what "owned" really means. Twelve years ago Mia shared her testimony of Christ, emailed it to her list, and watched her YouTube account disappear two hours later. No explanation. It never came back. That account was her entire lead generation. Around that same time, God gave her the idea for the podcast. 3. Depth compounds. Reach doesn't. She never watched the numbers. She started God-Centered Success to help entrepreneurs keep God first, recorded audio only so nothing stood between her and showing up weekly, and let it build. One hundred downloads per episode became a thousand. Then it doubled. And doubled again. Eventually 30,000 downloads per episode, with listeners in countries all over the world. 4. One mention. Over 250 applications. Before she had a big email list, before the podcast had a large audience, Mia opened a coaching program and simply mentioned the application link on an episode. More than 250 people applied. That's the positioning that long form content creates. 5. Short form content is the first thing AI replaces. AI can generate short clips by the thousands, with a synthetic face, from someone who never shows their own. If short form is all you produce, you are replaceable by definition. Long form builds a voice that can't be duplicated. 6. Trust is what makes any offer sell, and high ticket makes it non-negotiable. Nobody invests thousands of dollars based on a few clips they scrolled past. That level of trust gets built when someone binge listens to you while they're driving, cooking, cleaning. They come to know your mindset before they ever see your offer. 7. Legacy content outlives you. Mia's challenge: if you published weekly for the next thirty or forty years, you could leave behind a thousand episodes still reaching people long after you're gone. A post from Tuesday won't do that. Scriptures That Anchor This Episode Note: these are not quoted in the recording. They're the biblical foundation underneath what Mia teaches, included here so listeners can sit with them. Matthew 7:13-14 (NKJV) — Mia's wide path and narrow path language comes straight from here. "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it." Romans 12:2 (NKJV) — on refusing to build the way the world builds. "And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God." James 4:14 (NKJV) — the urgency behind creating something that lasts. "For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away." Matthew 6:20 (NKJV) — on building what doesn't evaporate. "But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal." Key Takeaways and Your Next Step Takeaway 1: Decide what your revenue actually rests on. Your action: name the single platform your income depends on right now. If that platform disappeared tomorrow, write down what would be left. Takeaway 2: Pick your one piece. Your action: choose one long form format, a podcast or a YouTube video, and commit to one piece per week. One. Not daily. Put the recording time on your calendar this week. Takeaway 3: Let social media be the complement, not the foundation. Your action: keep posting if you want to. Just stop asking it to carry your revenue. Takeaway 4: Build the trust before you need it. Your action: whatever you're selling now or plan to sell later, the trust has to exist first. Start building it this week, not the week you launch. Register for the Free Workshop Mia is teaching The Authority Podcast Blueprint in a live, free workshop. You'll learn how to position yourself as the authority in your space using high value content, how to shape a signature offer your content naturally feeds, and how to generate revenue without living on the hamster wheel.

A full content calendar can keep you busy without bringing you any closer to a customer. Rory and AJ Vaden explain the difference between managing the mechanics of content and building a strategy around the person you are uniquely equipped to serve. They also discuss why viral content and converting content require different approaches, how to identify the questions your audience needs answered, and why consistent content still fails when the message is disconnected from the customer. If your content is not producing results, it may be time to revisit who it is actually for.
What if growing your business didn't require posting every day, constantly checking your DMs or chasing the algorithm?In this episode, Holly sits down with Ashley Brock, founder of Paid Ads Academy and an eight-figure business owner who has managed more than $200 million in advertising spend. Ashley shares how entrepreneurs can use paid advertising to become more findable—so the right people discover their businesses without relying entirely on organic social media.Ashley breaks down why paid ads can be an anti-social, life-first growth strategy that continues working while you spend time with your family, serve your clients or step away from your phone. She also explains why successful advertising is about much more than Facebook and Instagram, how to choose the right platforms and what needs to be in place before you start investing.00:00:00 — Why paid ads can be an anti-social, life-first growth strategy00:01:30 — What building a life-first business means to Ashley00:03:00 — Using stronger boundaries to separate work, family and phone time00:04:30 — Leaving a six-figure corporate job while pregnant00:06:00 — Growing a business without relying on daily social media activity00:07:30 — How advertising helps customers find you across multiple platforms00:09:00 — Why paid advertising goes far beyond Facebook and Instagram00:10:30 — Choosing platforms based on customer behavior and business goals00:12:00 — Combining search ads, social ads, prospecting and retargeting00:13:30 — How to think about ad budgets and customer lifetime value00:15:00 — Why learning ads feels overwhelming at first—and how it becomes easier00:18:00 — Using AI to audit your calendar and reclaim valuable time00:19:30 — What must be proven before you invest in advertising00:21:00 — How AI can connect advertising and sales data for faster decisions00:24:00 — The support, delegation and weekly structure behind Ashley's business00:27:00 — Letting go of DMs, sales calls and founder-only responsibilities00:28:30 — The testimonial ad Ashley recommends creating firstCONNECT WITH ASHLEY:Website | https://www.paidadscoaching.com/Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/ads.with.ashley/TikTok | https://www.tiktok.com/@ads.with.ashleyYouTube | https://www.youtube.com/@ads.with.ashleyLinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashleyjettonbrock/Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/WinWithPaidAds/
Posting "just listed" and still feel invisible? The storybrand marketing framework real estate agents actually use looks nothing like what you're doing right now.I used to be the worst kind of marketer. Every post was about me, my new listing, my win, my hustle. Nobody cared and nobody called. Once I flipped the script and became the guide instead of the hero, everything changed, especially with sellers who had already been burned by another agent. That's the entire idea behind the storybrand marketing framework real estate agents are catching onto now.In this breakdown I walk through the exact real estate branding mistakes that were quietly killing my response rate, and the shift that turned my content into something people actually acted on. This isn't theory. It's the same approach that helped me pick up 75 expired listings in a single year.✅ Why most agents are making the same real estate agent marketing mistakes without even realizing it✅ How real estate storytelling marketing gets sellers to see themselves in your posts instead of watching you brag✅ The exact expired listing cold call script I use when I call a seller whose listing just fell through✅ Why your current real estate social media mistakes are costing you calls, not just likes✅ How to actually become the guide not the hero in real estate so sellers trust you before you ever pick up the phone✅ An updated expired listing script for 2026 built for how sellers are actually thinking right now✅ How to use storybrand for real estate agents without sounding like a corporate pitch deckIf you've ever wondered how to position yourself as a guide not the hero, this is the entire mechanism, no fluff, no theory, just what worked on real calls with real sellers.

#1013 Ready to turn your LinkedIn connections and text messages into paying AI clients? In this part 2 of our 2-part episode, Corey Ganim returns to the Millionaire University podcast with five more zero-cost strategies for landing AI clients — from human-first LinkedIn outreach and free mini-assessments for people you already know, to strategic partnerships with agencies, accountants, and realtors, hosting AI office hours at local co-working spaces, and the simple discipline of "posting your wins" to build authority over time. Corey breaks down the exact numbers behind his outreach game (how many DMs turn into clients), shares a real success story from a listener who booked two warm leads at a co-working space office hour, and explains why partnering with people who already have your ideal clients is one of the most underrated growth hacks out there. If you missed part 1, go back and check out Corey's meetup and door-knocking strategies before diving into this one! What we discuss with Corey: + Human-first LinkedIn outreach, no automation + Targeting local business owners (10–50 employees) + Connection requests before pitching + Leading with curiosity, not a sales pitch + Free mini-AI-assessments as a lead magnet + Upselling to the $999 assessment and $2K/month retainer + Partnering with agencies, accountants, realtors + Hosting AI office hours at co-working spaces + Using gift cards to drive event turnout + Posting your wins to build authority Thank you, Corey!

A billion views. Twelve million women. All of it started on a living room floor, postpartum, in lockdown, with a phone and no plan. Jo had gained fifty pounds, she was in the middle of postpartum depression, and she has said her body was nothing she recognized. She almost didn't press record. She thought if she showed up looking like that, people would look away. She showed up anyway. Not for an audience, not for the algorithm, not even for the woman she used to be. And that quiet decision, made on a bad day when nothing felt possible, is the whole reason twelve million women found her. We got into the girl before all of it. One of eleven kids, a family band, university at sixteen. Why she gave up training athletes to train regular women. The husband she met on a shoot, the one who never pulls her down. The woman in China who told her that her smile through a screen was the only thing that got her through the pandemic. The first stage she ever walked onto turned out to be an arena of forty thousand. And she said the smartest thing about consistency I've heard anyone say out loud. It isn't a daily workout. It's knowing what season you're actually in and showing up for that one. Two fifteen-minute workouts a week after a baby counts. So does a workout every day when life lets you. Neither one is failing. We talk about transformation like the point is the after photo. I don't think it is. The real story is the woman who got on the floor when nothing felt possible and chose herself anyway. Coming home to yourself isn't a transformation. It's a decision. Quiet, daily, usually made when no one is watching. New episodes of Not Alone every Wednesday. Subscribe so you never miss one.
