Is your unspoken trauma holding you back from success? Today, I'm so excited to speak with Powerhouse OG, Taylor Wray, the founder of Awakening Sol. Taylor is someone who truly embodies the healing journey in a way that I know will inspire and awaken you—wherever you may be in yours. She opens up about how she went from abusing drugs at just 13-years-old, to her experiences navigating loss in rehab, to now thriving as her fully aligned self. We talk about the impact of trauma on the way we show up in our lives and our businesses, and how patterns developed during our childhood continue well into our adulthood (whether we realize it or not!). Taylor also shares a much-needed destigmatized lens for detaching your identity from the success of your business, unwinding deep, subconscious patterns, and accessing healing in a way that resonates with you.   HIGHLIGHTS 00:00 Meet an OG of Powerhouse Women + the founder of Awakening Sol, Taylor Wray! 04:40 What keeps you going during moments of hardship? 06:05 Where did your path to healing begin? 15:20 The moment that changed the trajectory of Taylor's healing journey. 21:45 What misunderstanding keeps us from fully healing? 24:25 Understanding and processing trauma—without the stigma. 31:35 How patterns developed during childhood show up in our adulthood. 37:10 How do you peel back deep-seeded patterns? 42:00 Ways to grow beyond our conditioning as entrepreneurs. 49:05 Practices for detaching your identity from the success of your business. 52:00 What was the catalyst to reinvest in yourself? 1:02:15 Celebrating Taylor's Powerhouse moment of pushing through fear to launch her teacher training.   RESOURCES + LINKS Learn more at Taylor's website HERE!

Most notable of the tools that Jim has developed is the CoreBrand Index (CBI), a quantitative research vehicle that continuously tracks the reputation and financial performance of over 800 publicly traded companies across 50 industries. Tenet Partners uses the CBI to help clients recognize how their brands compare with industry peers and how communications can impact corporate reputation and financial performance, which includes stock price and revenue growth.Dr. Gregory is a frequent speaker on the financial benefits of communications and brand management. Recent speaking engagements include The Conference Board, the Association of National Advertisers, and the National Investor Relations Institute.One of the key secrets to my success was my passion for writing. Over the next four decades, I wrote a series of business books that helped build not only our business brand but also my personal reputation. Some of the titles I crafted include “Marketing Corporate Image,” “Leveraging the Corporate Brand,” “Branding Across Borders,” “The Best of Branding,” and “Powerhouse, the Secrets of Corporate Branding.”After successfully exiting the business, I embarked on a new journey – writing fiction. I quickly discovered that my favorite genre was short reads in the form of novellas. Drawing upon my extensive business experiences, personal life, and current events, I craft stories that can be enjoyed in just one sitting, whether it's an evening at home or a cross-country flight.https://jamesrgregory-books.com/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

Queensland's regional suburbs are booming, offering exciting opportunities for strategic long-term investors. Smart Property Investment's Phil Tarrant and Pure Property Investment's Paul Glossop return with a fresh edition of the FAST 50 report, revealing the top suburbs for property investment in 2026. Queensland features prominently in the 2026 FAST 50 report, with 15 of the top suburbs for capital growth located in the state, including nine in regional areas, reflecting a decline in urban appeal. Despite Queensland's strong presence in the list, Paul does not personally recommend any Queensland suburbs this year, citing caution around regional volatility. Suburbs like Park Avenue and Koongal near Rockhampton have posted an impressive 12-month growth of 29.1 per cent and 34 per cent, respectively. However, regional areas carry higher risks due to smaller populations and economic bases, making a long-term strategy essential. Paul and Phil emphasise the importance of long-term fundamentals over short-term trends when evaluating these locations. Download your FREE copy of the FAST 50 2026 report here.

Navigating the Modern Marketing Landscape with Rocket Fuel Labs' Amanda PattersonIn this episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge speaks with Amanda Patterson, the founder and CEO of Rocket Fuel Labs. With a background as a seasoned marketing executive and a passion for music, Amanda shares actionable insights on fractional CMOs, AI-powered marketing, and how to scale growth-stage companies with strategy and creativity.From crafting brand narratives to embracing AI responsibly, Amanda reveals how early-stage companies can compete in a saturated marketplace—without sacrificing authenticity.The Strategic Power of Fractional CMOsAmanda launched Rocket Fuel Labs during the early days of COVID-19, initially supporting a portfolio of high-growth startups. Today, her firm delivers fractional CMO services that provide businesses with executive-level marketing leadership—without the cost or commitment of a full-time hire.She explains how many startups—particularly pre-Series A or B—don't yet need a full CMO but do need clear go-to-market strategies. Amanda's team fills that gap by conducting in-depth audits, crafting tailored roadmaps, and helping founders hit revenue goals faster. Unlike traditional agencies, Rocket Fuel Labs begins with business discovery, not a plug-and-play template.Josh and Amanda also explore the value of treating marketing like an investment—not a one-size-fits-all expense. From SEO to paid ads, Amanda emphasizes that strategy must lead execution.AI in Marketing: Enhance, Don't ReplaceAmanda has a clear stance on AI: it should augment creativity, not replace it. She regularly uses tools like ChatGPT to brainstorm headlines, summarize client calls, and accelerate workflows. But she cautions against relying too heavily on AI-generated content.She recalls the recent backlash around Coca-Cola's fully AI-created ad—a campaign that lacked the emotional nuance only human creatives can deliver. Her advice? Keep the human in the loop. Use AI to amplify your ideas, not automate your brand voice away.Amanda also touches on how AI is reshaping search behavior. With tools like Google's AI overviews impacting traditional SEO strategies, marketers must now prioritize intent-driven, bottom-funnel content. She encourages listeners to focus on quality, contextually relevant content rather than chasing rankings through volume alone.Music, Marketing, and Building Something MeaningfulOutside the boardroom, Amanda is a musician who performs alongside her teenage daughter in the live music capital of the world—Austin, Texas. Her artistic background influences her marketing work in a powerful way. Whether she's writing music or designing growth campaigns, she brings the same emphasis on storytelling, collaboration, and creativity.Amanda believes the best marketing combines data with soul.

Joshua K. Wright, The NBA's Global Empire: How the League Became an International Powerhouse (McFarland, 2025)  During the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona, the Dream Team, a collective of the National Basketball Association's top talent led by Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird and Charles Barkley, shook up the world as they amazed spectators and opponents on their way to winning gold. Their success introduced the world to the NBA's charismatic superstars and their artistic brand of basketball. Over the next two decades, youth outside of America dreamed of becoming the next Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, and LeBron James. The NBA took advantage of its popularity in China by forming lucrative television and streaming deals and opening training academies. By the 2022-23 NBA season, there were 109 international players from 39 countries, a Canadian franchise, and a league in Africa. Today's best players are Africans, Canadians and Europeans like Nikola Jokic and Victor Wembanyama. This book presents the history of the NBA's ascension to a billion-dollar global empire, analyzing the globalization of American sports since the end of the Cold War and the dawn of the millennium. How essential is globalization for the NBA to thrive in the 21st century? Do the benefits outweigh the geopolitical controversies associated with being a global brand? Is globalization responsible for a decline in American-born NBA players and declining domestic popularity? These questions and others are answered in this first treatment of the NBA's global reach. Paul Knepper covered the New York Knicks for Bleacher Report. His first book was The Knicks of the Nineties: Ewing, Oakley, Starks and the Brawlers That Almost Won It All. His next book, Moses Malone: The Life of a Basketball Prophet, will be out in the fall of 2025. You can reach Paul at paulknepper@gmail.com and follow him on Twitter @paulieknep.

Interview with Kyle Floyd, CEO, VOX Royalty Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/vox-royalty-tsxvoxr-strong-growth-potential-with-near-term-revenue-focus-5599Recording date: 27 May 2025VOX Royalty Corp has established itself as a distinctive player in the mining royalty sector by prioritizing fundamental value over commodity-specific strategies. CEO Kyle Floyd outlined the company's transformation from a single producing asset five years ago to a diversified portfolio of eight producing assets across nine ore bodies, while maintaining industry-leading return on invested capital.The company's acquisition strategy targets assets 2-5 years from production, allowing VOX to secure favorable pricing while taking calculated development risks. Floyd emphasizes that unlike competitors who "buy assets at one-times NAV and hope to benefit from optionality," VOX requires "value on the front end in terms of what we're buying and the ultimate net asset value attached to that asset as it stands today."Recent acquisitions exemplify this approach across different timelines. The Red Hill gold royalty, acquired in September 2023, represents a longer-term opportunity expected to generate "$15 million plus per annum" once Northern Star completes its $1.5 billion mill expansion within 18-24 months. Conversely, the producing Kanmantoo copper royalty acquired for $12 million offers immediate cash flow with significant expansion potential through a planned 60,000-meter drill program.VOX demonstrated strong financial performance in 2024, achieving record positive free cash flow and increasing 2025 revenue guidance from $12-14 million to $13-15 million. The company maintains a healthy balance sheet with $9 million cash against $11.7 million debt, utilizing 6.8% cost debt financing to fund accretive acquisitions.Geographic concentration in Western Australia reflects VOX's risk management philosophy, with Floyd calling it "the best mining jurisdiction you can possibly have exposure to as a royalty company." Current gold prices exceeding $5,000 per ounce in Australian dollars create favorable tailwinds for the portfolio.As Floyd noted regarding the company's enhanced capabilities: "If it rains gold, don't put out the thimble, put out the bucket. I think we're in a position now where the bucket's ready."Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/vox-royaltySign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Penny Burke, one of the hardest things in growing a small business is managing time, especially balancing business development ("hunting") with project delivery ("cooking and eating"). She explains that in a project-based business, it's challenging to constantly juggle winning new work while also delivering high-quality outcomes. Additionally, she emphasizes that people management — hiring the right team and dealing with performance issues—is another tough but crucial aspect of sustainable growth. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Penny Burke's favorite business book that has helped her the most is "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie. She considers it a classic and values its timeless insights on building strong relationships and effective communication—key skills in both leadership and business growth. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Penny Burke does not recommend any specific podcasts or online learning tools to help grow a small business. She mentions that her husband uses such resources more than she does, and she personally prefers listening to music during her downtime instead of engaging with podcasts or similar tools. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Penny Burke emphasizes the importance of market mapping as a methodology rather than a specific tool. She recommends identifying where your business can play, where it can win, and where you can build your fame. This market-focused thinking helps small businesses define their niche and develop a strong positioning strategy, which is critical for growth. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Penny Burke's advice to herself on day one of starting out in business is: "Just be good. Don't worry about size. Just whatever it is that you're going to do, do it really, really, really well." This highlights her focus on quality and excellence over rapid growth.

The guys are back to run through the first few games of the NBA Conference Finals! They talk through the Pacers insane comeback win vs. the Knicks, OKC's dominance over the Wolves, SGA's MVP and the talk surrounding his free throws. On the heels of 7-straight international MVPs, the guys predict who the next American born NBA MVP will be & talk about some superstars who have yet to win, but might in their careers. They end the pod by talking about whether or not dynasties are actually dead in the NBA, and give their thoughts on the NFL's Tush Push ruling!
