In this episode, Colleen responds to a question many women hit right after real momentum begins: What if I slip back? What if the funk comes back and I lose everything I've built? Using a recent coaching call — and her own very real 5 a.m. spiral — she breaks down why the goal of emotional sobriety isn't avoiding hard days, negative thoughts, or uncomfortable emotions. It's learning how to recognize them early and change your relationship to them before they hijack your nervous system and run the day. Colleen explains why awareness is most of mental health, how negative thought loops become habits, and what actually separates "good" mental health from bad: who's driving the car — you, or your mind. She walks through the five core attributes of a healthy mindset and shows how shifting perspective first is what makes action, clarity, and forward motion possible. This episode reframes funks as normal, growth as uncomfortable, and success as the ability to take ownership in real time — not the absence of struggle.
Wondering why your lead generation efforts aren't landing sales? In this episode, I'm sharing the key difference between decision makers and influencers in corporate organisations - and why targeting the right people will transform your business. Consistency matters and so does knowing who truly holds the budget and sign-off power. Build relationships, but be strategic. You'll learn why consistency trumps any "magic" lead generation method, and how focusing your energy on the right contacts can be the difference between wasted time and revenue growth. Whether you're a coach, consultant, speaker, or trainer looking to supplement your lead generation, this episode goes deep into practical strategies—and offers actionable advice to help you build relationships that truly move the needle for your business. Ready to unlock the secrets to better B2B sales and start this year off strong? Tune in, get inspired, and learn how to have more impactful conversations (and more closed deals) with the people who count. Key Takeaways: Qualified Lead vs. Influencer: Decision makers are those with the job title, remit, and budget autonomy to actually buy your services. Influencers may champion you internally or help you understand organisational needs—but without buying power, your efforts might not convert to sales. Volume and Consistency Matter: Lead generation isn't about finding a single "magic bullet" strategy. Whether you use email, LinkedIn, networking, or speaking gigs—consistency in executing your method and clear targeting are what drive results. Don't Get Stuck on Dead-End Relationships: If you're spending hours on calls with people who love your insights but never have purchasing authority, it may be time to re-evaluate your prospect list. Pouring energy into non-reciprocal relationships is wasted time (and money). How to Qualify a Decision Maker: Ensure your contacts tick these boxes: Their job title aligns with responsibility for your expertise. They hold autonomous budget. They have sign-off power for purchases. Influencers Still Matter—Just Differently: Influencers can introduce you to decision makers or champion your offer internally. But remember, if a relationship isn't productive or mutually beneficial, set boundaries so your focus stays on revenue-generating prospects. Key Quotes; The Real Challenge of Lead Generation "One of the major challenges is that people aren't always generating the right kind of leads." 00:03:0100:03:05 Why Your Outreach Isn't Getting Results "If you haven't worked on the quality and volume and targeting pieces of whatever, whatever outreach strategy you employ, whether it's email, whether it's LinkedIn, whether it's speaking, whether it's networking, whether it's any executive effort, you are not going to see the result you want." 00:17:2300:17:41 The Hidden Pitfall in Sales Strategies Quote: "Most people are not doing that in their sales process and as a result, it means their sales process is stalled. And it means that they're, I'm going to use the phrase wasting time because they're spending lots and lots of time and energy on cultivating relationships with influencers who are not going to be able to push them up the chain to the, to the actual sale." 00:23:5100:24:16 The Importance of Building Relationships Across All Levels "Even junior employees are important to know because one day they will get jobs that are in leadership positions where they are a decision maker. So it's important to create relationships with everybody." 00:37:5200:37:54 Key Resources Mentioned in this Episode: Cold & Sold Bundle: Secure your spot at Converting Corporates 2026, get a year's inbound leads, plus access to the popular Cold to Closed course (8 sales calls in 4 weeks, anyone?) .https://smartleaderssell.thrivecart.com/cold-and-sold-bundle/ Episode sponsored by The Expert Services Directory: A key resource for coaches / consultants / trainers and done-for-you service providers to generate inbound leads.

What happens when you have the ‘perfect’ corporate job at a top-tier firm with a clear path to partnership, but deep down, you feel a pull towards something else? For Alex Marks, the founder of New York’s cult-favourite ‘Sushi Counter’, that pull wasn’t just a distraction - it was the catalyst for trading a high-flying legal career for a world of total uncertainty. Before she was serving thousands of rolls a day, Alex was a successful M&A lawyer at the top-tier firm Herbert Smith Freehills. She loved the late nights, the adrenaline, and the "in the trenches" camaraderie. But a dream transfer to New York became the catalyst for her pivot when she faced an immediate culture clash. Realising the US corporate world was an "individual sport" she didn't want to play, Alex was faced with a choice: Stay in a job that wasn't a fit, or risk it all. She chose risk. Pouring her entire $100,000 USD life savings into an idea, she quit her job and, a week later, signed a lease for a tiny shop to sell the Australian-style sushi she couldn't find anywhere in the city. In this episode of Pivot Club, Sarah Davidson speaks with Alex about this massive industry leap. They unpack the "messy middle" of her entire journey: From the "primitive" Excel model that convinced her to take the leap, to the humbling reality of hand-filling 50,000 soy sauce fish with a syringe in her living room. Alex shares the unfiltered story of how she navigated intense online backlash just one week after opening and how she scaled from a team of one (plus a supportive boyfriend) to a staff of 30. Join us for a raw and practical lesson in naive optimism, a look into the grit required to build a business from the ground up and a powerful reminder that sometimes, the fear of regret is far scarier than the fear of failure.

When emotions feel tangled or words won’t come out right, God invites you to pour out your heart to Him as a safe refuge. Psalm 62:8 reminds us that whether we speak freely or sit silently, God listens closely and welcomes every concern we bring before Him. Highlights God invites you to pour out your heart—without fear or filtering. Whether you process internally or externally, God can handle your words or your silence. God is a refuge, not threatened by emotion or overwhelmed by honesty. When words fail, the Holy Spirit helps express what’s on your heart (Romans 8:26). God bends down to listen, drawing closer rather than pulling away. David modeled honest expression through prayer, music, and worship. God can communicate what you cannot find words to say—even to others. Do you want to listen ad-free?

Full Transcript Below: Pouring Out Your Heart By Cindi McMenamin Bible Reading:Trust in Him at all times, you people; Pour out your hearts before Him; God is a refuge for us. (Psalm 62:8 NASB) Do you ever long for a safe place to pour out your heart? Some people are internal processors. They run thoughts through their minds and at times find it difficult to verbally express what’s on their hearts. At times, I wish I were that way. To the contrary, I struggle with keeping it all inside. As a verbal or external processor, I repeat instructions aloud to make sure I understand them. And I express my thoughts verbally as a way of sorting through them. To my husband, who is an internal processor, that’s exhausting at times. For me, it’s essential. To hold it in is to put a stopper on my heart, and I feel I will suffocate. Until pent-up feelings eventually blow, like an eruption of emotion that can be overwhelming to those I love the most. In the aftermath of a gush of words, there can sometimes be regret. But God is not threatened by my words—or yours. And He’s not irritated by our silence, either. He tells us, in His Word, to pour out our hearts before Him, and then He tells us He is a refuge, a safe place—we don’t need to fear what we said or the words we withheld. He knows, and can handle them all—or none at all. And if you’re one who struggles with how to verbally express how you feel, or when you do, you choose the wrong words, Romans 8:26 tells us His Spirit will communicate with yours and express your very heart to your Heavenly Father. I love how the Contemporary English Version renders Psalm 62:8: “Trust God, my friends, and always tell him each of your concerns. God is our place of safety.” Intersecting Faith & Life: Could you use a safe place when it comes to bearing your soul? Do you need a refuge, a place to hide, when you’re not ready to express how you feel? God is there for us whenever we need to process our thoughts and feelings. He is the Ultimate Listener and the Perfect Communicator. He is the Quiet Encourager and our Comforting Presence. Psalm 116:2 in the New Living Translation says: “Because he bends down to listen, I will pray as long as I have breath!” I love how that verse indicates He will come near us, rather than walk away, when we have something we need to say. He will draw closer—in order to listen carefully—when He knows we struggle with how to express what’s on our hearts, or how to filter our words. As a father with an ear bent toward his loving child, our God will listen. So, pour it out. Or keep it in, and just close your eyes and reflect on being in His presence. He knows exactly what you need to say. He can hear your unspoken words, too. I tend to think David, the psalmist, needed to write music and lyrics in order to express his heart. And I believe he counted on God to help him find words for what he felt, so he could express those words to God and sing them back to Him. In doing so, he experienced God’s strength in the midst of his weakness. What do you need to express to someone today, while you struggle to find the right words? Can you tell it to God instead, or ask Him to search your mind and thoughts and help you convey what you need to say to someone else? Many times, when I’m at a loss for how to say something to someone at just the right time and in just the right way, I’ve asked my heavenly Father to convey to that person what’s on my heart without me having to say anything. He has an amazing way of touching someone’s heart and making them “hear” what I really wanted to say to them, but never found the words to do so. Oh, the overwhelming, astounding love of God. All His ways are perfect, says Psalm 18:30. And through His help, we are strengthened. The next time you need to speak up or hold it in, praise Him for being a God who listens. And then pour out your heart before Him. Your words are safe with Him. Further Reading:Psalm 139:1-18.

Season three of Wine Access Unfiltered was never about turning you into a sommelier — it was about helping you become a more confident, curious, and intentional wine buyer. In this solo finale, Amanda revisits the biggest ideas and “aha” moments from the season, from why asking better questions is the most powerful wine skill you can develop, to how importers can be your greatest shortcut to finding wines you'll actually love. Pouring a classic Chianti, Amanda reflects on where value really lives in the wine world, why popularity often drives price more than quality, and how buying wine that fits your life — not someone else's rules — leads to better bottles and more enjoyment. Whether you're catching up, revisiting favorite lessons, or setting intentions for the year ahead, this episode is your reminder that wine doesn't belong to gatekeepers. It belongs to you.

In early spring, Roxanne visits her neighbor Martin, the local beekeeper, to collect freshly cleaned beeswax from last year's hives. From the golden bricks of wax she carries home, she begins the slow, careful process of crafting beeswax candles for the first market of the season. Surrounded by the scent of lilac, honey, and woodsmoke, Roxanne works with quiet devotion—melting, pouring, and labeling each candle by hand. It's a story about rhythm, renewal, and the simple beauty of creating something warm and lasting from the gifts of nature. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay continue their XXXmas celebrations by putting all their money on frozen orange juice futures as they discuss 'Trading Places.' Bombay opens up the episode by recalling the time a car pulled over in the cold to offer him a ride, and how it all unraveled into an insane night.Then the boys discuss a classic comedy that isn't mentioned enough for its Christmas charm. It opens with wonderfully gritty location shots of Philadelphia, and features a Snobs vs. Slobs storyline with racial undertones. Director John Landis does the right thing and lets young rising phenom, Eddie Murphy, absolutely cook, but Dan Aykroyd pulls out one of his most memorable film performances as an unhinged destitute Santa. Peppered with memorable moments throughout, it's the closing act hijinks on the train which pushes the boundaries of absurdity, and features many of the film's funniest moments. This episode will have you wishing you spent the holidays shacked up with a savvy hooker with a heart of gold.

Earlier this year, I enjoyed a delicious lunch in Mexico City with Luis Lozano, the former CEO of Toyota de Mexico. Luis immediately impressed me with his knowledge of the Mexican car market, the shock of hundreds of thousands of Chinese imports since 2020 and the possibilities that Chinese automakers will try to make Mexico a production base for exports to the United States. One of his goals, Luis told me, was to open American eyes to the current realities of Chinese cars. They are good value for money, they are coming our way. And they are not turning back. So, which companies are ones to watch? Are they going to build plants in Mexico as they have done in Brazil, Spain and Thailand? How soon? In today's conversation we get answers to those questions here on the Driving With Dunne podcast.

"Success leaves clues. And sometimes that clue is healthy leadership that is just able to take them from plateau to plateau." - Trey MarinelloMy guest this week, Trey Marinello of Houlihan Lokey, is an expert in a topic everyone is constantly talking about: Private Equity. Trey joined the show to demystify the world of investment banking and explain exactly why private equity firms are pouring billions of dollars into the employer-sponsored healthcare space.Trey breaks down the current trends, explaining why PE isn't just about leverage and debt, but about "turning the propeller faster" through distribution expertise and strategic growth. We discuss why categories like TPAs, cost containment, and innovative funding models are red-hot, while "wellness" and "population health" have struggled to prove their ROI.We also explore the potential of AI to revolutionize mental health care, why “ICHRA” is still a wild card, and how smart brokers are becoming essential value-drivers in M&A deals.Tune in for a masterclass on following the money in healthcare!Chapters:(00:00:00) Why Private Equity is Pouring Billions Into Employer Healthcare(00:00:35) Why Private Equity Loves Healthcare (00:08:59) What Does an Investment Banker Actually Do?

And sometimes that clue is healthy leadership that is just able to take them from plateau to plateau." - Trey MarinelloMy guest this week, Trey Marinello of Houlihan Lokey, is an expert in a topic everyone is constantly talking about: Private Equity. Trey joined the show to demystify the world of investment banking and explain exactly why private equity firms are pouring billions of dollars into the employer-sponsored healthcare space.Trey breaks down the current trends, explaining why PE isn't just about leverage and debt, but about "turning the propeller faster" through distribution expertise and strategic growth. We discuss why categories like TPAs, cost containment, and innovative funding models are red-hot, while "wellness" and "population health" have struggled to prove their ROI.We also explore the potential of AI to revolutionize mental health care, why “ICHRA” is still a wild card, and how smart brokers are becoming essential value-drivers in M&A deals.Tune in for a masterclass on following the money in healthcare!Chapters:(00:00:00) Why Private Equity is Pouring Billions Into Employer Healthcare(00:00:35) Why Private Equity Loves Healthcare (00:08:59) What Does an Investment Banker Actually Do?

Catholic Money Mastermind - Financial Planning conversations with Catholic CFP® Practitioners
Today, Ben sits down with fellow Catholic financial planners Nick Orenduff and Charlie Horonzy for a rich roundtable on what it truly means to live a generous, ordered, and faith-centered life. Together, they wrestle with the tension between self-giving and self-preservation—how to pour ourselves out for God, family, and community without crossing into burnout or misplaced busyness. Nick reflects on the daily discipline of keeping God first, family second, and career third, while Charlie shares how prayer, discernment, and spirituality help him know when to say yes or no to new commitments. The trio also explore how seasons of life shape our ability to serve, how financial boundaries mirror spiritual ones, and why surrendering control is often the most faithful form of stewardship. Woven through their conversation is a deep trust that God's providence can transform even our limitations into grace. By the end, Ben, Nick, and Charlie invite listeners to view their time, money, and energy not as burdens to manage, but as sacred resources to be aligned with God's will—one prayerful decision at a time.Key Takeaways:• A well-ordered life begins by placing God first, family second, and career third—a framework that helps align all other decisions.• True generosity doesn't mean saying yes to everything; it means discerning where God is actually calling you to give.• The way we serve changes as our responsibilities shift—young parents, for example, are called to focus more deeply on family.• Offering our struggles and discomfort to God transforms them into acts of love and participation in His plan.• Recognizing life's brevity encourages intentionality about how we spend our weeks and years.• Our careers, finances, and families are not possessions to control but gifts to steward in loving obedience.Key Timestamps:(01:55) – Balancing Work and Life(07:53) – Trusting God and Letting Go(10:03) – Family Dynamics and Communication(17:42) – Seasons of Life and Service(20:24) – Balancing Volunteering and Personal Boundaries(23:47) – Navigating Life's Noise and Staying Focused on God(31:46) – The Value of Time and Living IntentionallyMentions:Website: https://www.focusedupfinancial.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charlie-horonzy-cfp%C2%AE-cpa-8802b910/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FocusedUpFinancial# Website: https://www.planmember.com/advisor/?bk=NOrenduff LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicholas-ross-orenduff-cfp%C2%AE-a45a7524b/ Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals by Oliver BurkemanThe Practice of the Presence of God by Brother LawrenceMore of Catholic Money Mastermind:Catholic Money Mastermind Podcast is a personal podcast meant for educational and entertainment.
