Podcasts about Proximity

In this episode of Business Lunch, Roland Frasier and Ryan Deiss explain how the classic four-stage buying journey has collapsed into one moment—and why trust is the lid that keeps prospects “popping” in your pot. They unpack three forms of trust—Identity, Competence, and Proximity—with sharp wins and public flops (Nike, Sephora, Peloton, DSW, Starbucks, Apple, United). You'll get simple creative frameworks to turn short-form content into instant, in-channel conversions and a 14-day sprint to prove it on a small budget.Highlights“It's not a funnel anymore—it's a popcorn popper. Your audience are kernels heating at different speeds. Trust is the lid that keeps them popping for you.”“Competence trust means the brand ‘gets me'—often better than I can describe myself.”“Employees outperform celebrities for reach and credibility—because most buyers are employees.”“Frictionless is forgettable. Add desirable friction that helps buyers name their pain and act.”“If you can't pivot your model, bolt trust into your media: mirror-micro-media, why-what-where, people-place-proof.”Mentioned in This EpisodeThree Trust Types (MAP mnemonic):M – Identity trust: Mirror → Micro → MediaA – Competence trust: “Answer” with Why → What → WhereP – Proximity trust: People → Place → ProofCompetence wins & misses: Nike's “Why do it?” repositioning; Sephora tutorials lifting AOV; Peloton's 2019 holiday ad backlash.Proximity plays: DSW AR try-ons; Starbucks barista TikToks; Apple retail specialists; cautionary tale—United Airlines viral incidents.Localization tactics: regional currency/sites, geo-specific visuals (city skylines), and micro-influencers by market.KPI effects: higher AOV/retention/loyalty from competence; higher LTV from proximity; employee posts driving outsized reach.Timestamps00:00 – The collapsed customer journey: from funnel to popcorn popper (trust as the lid)04:00 – Recap: Identity trust (mirror, micro, media)—and why episodes stand alone but compound07:30 – Competence trust: the brand that “gets me” (Nike shift, Sephora demos) + Peloton misread14:20 – Framework for competence: Why → What → Where (myth-bust, demo, direct CTA)17:30 – Example: 30-sec tax advisory myth-buster → LinkedIn/Reels → consult link → track AOV20:10 – Proximity trust: employees, in-place context, show real proof (DSW AR, Starbucks, Apple)24:10 – Employee content > celebrity polish; make it authentic, even shot on phone26:00 – 14-day Trust Sprint and MAP recap; why proximity is overlooked yet most scalableTakeaways for OperatorsStop chasing linear funnels; engineer trust in-channel so action can happen immediately.Use Why → What → Where to collapse steps: name the pain, show the fix, drop the link.Turn staff into a media network: People → Place → Proof with incentives and simple tracking.Localize by currency, domains, visuals, accents, micro-influencers—it quietly multiplies conversion.Run a 14-day sprint: baseline CAC/AOV → recruit 3 customers + 3 insiders → record shorts →...

Small and medium businesses make up nearly half of all employment and GDP, yet they often struggle to compete against the scale, brand power, and resources of large corporations. Too often, the advice given to them is to “play bigger”—but that's a losing battle. What if the real advantage lies in embracing their underdog status?In this episode of the Happiness Squad Podcast, Ashish Kothari sits down with Sri Kaza, Advisory Board at Markaaz and author of the upcoming book UNCONVENTION: A Small Business Strategy Guide, to explore how SMBs can thrive by leaning into what makes them different: positioning, proximity, and purpose. They discuss why small doesn't mean weak, and how founders can unlock resilience, loyalty, and growth by playing their own game.Sri Kaza is an entrepreneur, investor, and former McKinsey consultant with a career spanning engineering, consulting, finance, and startups. He has helped scale visionary companies like Viking Cruises, co-founded ForwardLine to provide innovative financing for small businesses, and worked closely with entrepreneurs across industries to unlock growth. Ashish and Sri unpack inspiring stories, actionable insights, and practical strategies that will change the way you think about leading and growing a small to medium business. Tune in to discover how to turn your size into your greatest strength.Things you will learn in this episode:• The three Underdog Principles—Positioning, Proximity, and Purpose—and how to apply them• Why focusing on your core customers builds resilience during crises• How closeness to employees and community becomes a competitive edge• How AI can serve as a growth engine for SMBs rather than just a cost-cutting tool• Practical ways to stay grounded as a founder and align every decision with purposeIf you want to discover how small and medium businesses can outcompete giants and make flourishing their competitive edge, this conversation is one you won't want to miss.✅Resources:• How Great Companies Deliver Both Purpose and Profit by Alex Edmans: https://corpgov.law.harvard.edu/2020/10/01/how-great-companies-deliver-both-purpose-and-profit/ ✅Books:• Unconvention: A Small Business Strategy Guide by Sri Kaza: https://a.co/d/aYYfD8w • The Experimentation Machine by Jeff Bussgang: https://experimentationmachine.com/• Hardwired for happiness by Ashish Kothari: https://happinesssquad.com/hardwired-for-happiness/

In this episode, Casey sits down with Ty Nielson and Tim Miller, the entrepreneurial duo behind Ninja Kids, for a candid masterclass on building creator-led experiences with heart, vision, and relentless execution. Fresh off a Tony Robbins immersion, they unpack how state, story, and strategy helped catalyze new habits and higher standards; and why the energy of an aligned community can flip limiting beliefs into bold action.Ty and Tim trace their path from shaping the trampoline park industry to founding Ninja Kids; along the way they learned that it's rarely a lack of resources, but a lack of resourcefulness that holds leaders back. Their time scaling hundreds of locations provided a front-row education in private equity, deal structure, and culture; lessons they'd later use to design on their own terms.They also share the scrappy stories that shaped the brand's creator partnership strategy; from pursuing real estate with nothing but conviction, to a chance introduction that led to the Ninja Kids collaboration and a new growth thesis. Expect takeaways on proximity as power, building wonder into product, modeling excellence, and leading so your people feel believed in.Chapters00:00 | Opening & Intros: Ninja Kids leadership00:41 | Tony Robbins: going “all in”01:52 | Shared values & why Sandlot invested03:58 | What a Tony event feels like (state → story → strategy)06:47 | The 55° room, physiology, and energy07:14 | Full-circle moment on Casey's plane10:08 | Community, permission to play big, and breakthroughs11:00 | Proximity is power: the billionaire story15:13 | Belonging, imposter syndrome, and belief17:15 | Dreaming bigger: from $20M to $1B vision17:46 | Shared values with investors & doing them proud19:50 | Theme of the journey: people who believe in you20:56 | Origins: missions in Russia & lifelong partnership27:06 | What Russians taught them about trust and loyalty29:29 | Ty's childhood in post-USSR Russia (Pepsi → Coke!)31:44 | The leap: from Schlumberger to “ringmaster” vision35:12 | Titles, vision, and chasing wonder36:20 | Modeling leaders; habits, gratitude, and wonderment41:08 | Designing for wonder: lighting, art, and moments45:46 | Scaling lessons: do your absolute best, be resourceful47:49 | It's not resources; it's resourcefulness54:14 | 300+ parks, private equity, and real-world MBA56:32 | Culture shock: when the magic dwindles58:21 | Fired → phone call → blessing → new chapter01:02:23 | Pattern recognition: rebrands vs. creators01:06:05 | Tesla saga to Chicago: conviction on wheels01:08:37 | Kindness compounds: the people who helped01:12:50 | Emergent strategy: buy tired parks, create energy01:14:01 | Non-competes, red tape, and 34-month realities01:16:35 | The Ninja Kids intro (thanks, Stevie from BYU)01:17:44 | First acquisition in Dallas & signing the PGs Hosted on Acast.

Your Nightly Prayer

Within the larger pageant, seeing the funding sources of the various factions explains a lot. Is the uniparty staging a fake budget fight? It's all intended to pass their preferred version of the budget. Yes, this means big funding. Posturing and blowing minds. Some people crave being close to fame. Let them think they hurt you. Andrew Breitbart speaks. The absurd inflated concepts of the left. They use false and fake insinuations of racism. And they try to sequester leadership. Anyone can step forward and start a broadcast these days. Each of us brings our own perspective. Authenticity results in power. When the intimidation has melted away, it only leaves courage. Real people are changing history and the big influencers don't matter. Choreography happening for years is now visible. Prosecutions, resignations and a reckoning. Shifting the architecture of accountability. The spectacle of power can be it's undoing. Civility in rhetoric also covers up abuse. We should only be supporting the USA. Pretending Israel is a victim is about Congress getting paid. Even the corrupt people are sometimes useful. There is a lot going on right now, so watch carefully. And let's thank God that we're truly able to see.

Coffee with Samso | Episode 210 | DY6 Metals (ASX: DY6) | UWA Club, Crawley, Western Australia Guest: Cliff Fitzhenry, CEO – DY6 Metals Ltd Introduction In this latest episode of Coffee with Samso, we return to the UWA Club in Crawley to meet with Cliff Fitzhenry, CEO of DY6 Metals Ltd (ASX: DY6). This conversation cuts through the technical noise to examine what could become a globally significant rutile and titanium discovery in Africa. DY6 is still an early-stage story, but it's positioning itself at the front of the critical mineral narrative and targeting the scarcity of natural rutile, a feedstock commanding premium value in the titanium supply chain. Cliff brings technical clarity to what rutile actually is, why it matters, and how DY6 is forging ahead in Cameroon, a lesser-known but emerging jurisdiction with enormous potential. Key Highlights from the Conversation 1. What is DY6 and Where Are They Focused? DY6 Metals listed on the ASX in mid-2023 with a portfolio of rare earth projects in Malawi, and has since pivoted focus to rutile and heavy mineral sands (HMS) in Cameroon — particularly the: Central Rutile Project (residual saprolite-hosted rutile) Duala Basin Project (coastal HMS project) Both sit in proximity to transport infrastructure, including rail and deepwater ports, and within a fast-evolving mining jurisdiction supported by new modernised regulations. 2. First Results – Reconnaissance Program at Central Rutile Project In May 2025, DY6 completed its first pass reconnaissance sampling at the Central Rutile Project. While shallow (1–3m), the results were promising: Rutile confirmed as dominant titanium mineral Rutile grades above 1.5%, with highs of 2.1%, considered ultra-high grade Heavy Mineral (HM) contents up to 8% in surface samples These results validate the geological model targeting in-situ residual rutile mineralisation. Cliff explains: “We confirmed rutile is the key titanium mineral, and we've since completed 24 auger holes to greater depth using upgraded equipment. We believe those will be far more representative of in-situ rutile mineralisation.” 3. Understanding the Geological Model: Residual vs Alluvial Rutile Cliff offers a masterclass in explaining rutile geology: Residual/Saprolite-hosted: Rutile concentrated in weathered bedrock — easy to drill, free-dig, and dry mine Alluvial: Historically known in Cameroon (1930s–50s), but more dispersed due to river transport The Central Project targets the residual style, like Sovereign Metals' Kasiya deposit in Malawi. 4. Jurisdiction Watch: Why Cameroon? Cameroon is emerging as a serious mineral jurisdiction with: A reformed mining code Newly formed mining commission (DY6's licence applications under review) Proximity to Canyon Resources' bauxite project and Lion Rock Minerals' rutile project “We're bullish on Cameroon. We're setting up our own lab, building a local team, and drilling with purpose. This is the kind of place where tier-one discoveries are still possible.” 5. The Benchmark: Sovereign Metals & Kasiya DY6's model draws clear inspiration from Sovereign Metals' Kasiya discovery in Malawi — a 1.8Bt rutile deposit that reset the market's understanding of sediment-hosted titanium systems. “I was part of the team that made the Kasiya discovery. We know the rocks. Cameroon has similar geology. The model is proven — now it's about execution.” 6. Grades Explained – What Numbers Matter in HMS and Rutile? Understanding the significance of reported grades is crucial: Traditional beach sands (e.g., Iluka-style): ~3–5% HM, mostly ilmenite High-grade rutile cutoff: >1.4% rutile Kasiya MRE cutoff: 0.7% rutile DY6's early sampling: up to 2.1% rutile, a standout in the global context 7. Infrastructure and In-Country Processing Strategy DY6 is building its own mineral sands laboratory in Yaoundé, Cameroon. This eliminates long wait times and expensive logistics. In-country assays for rapid turnaround Heavy-duty auger rigs now operating A 35% complete geochemical soil program underway “We're cutting out expensive delays. Everything will be processed in-country — cheaply and efficiently.” 8. Outlook for 2025–2026: Drill, Define, Deliver DY6's roadmap for the next 12 months includes: Continuous drilling at Central Rutile Project Full geochem completion + maiden deeper drilling campaign Full lab operations in Cameroon Defining high-grade targets for maiden JORC resource Establishing Cameroon as a new titanium hub 9. The Malawi Portfolio – Secondary, But Valuable While Cameroon is the flagship, DY6 retains highly prospective assets in Malawi: Tundulu Rare Earths–Phosphate–Gallium Project Machinga Heavy Rare Earths–Niobium Project Additional lithium, copper, and PGM targets “We're planning follow-up work on the rare earths and gallium, but Cameroon is where the tier-one discovery potential is right now.” 10. The Market View: Underappreciated but Undervalued? Cliff addresses market perception head-on: DY6 trades at a significant valuation gap to both Sovereign Metals (DFS stage) and Lion Rock Minerals (neighbouring Cameroon explorer) DY6 sees a first-mover advantage in a potentially massive province Lack of near-term peers = space to define leadership “We're seeing serious inbound interest. There are majors looking at this region. We think the market will catch up when the drill results start to flow.” Chapters 00:00 Start 01:38 Introduction 02:51  Rutile results from Central Rutile Project 05:59  Does DY6 understand the potential Mineral Assemblages in the Central Rutile project. 06:35  What is the topology like ? 07:21  What is the jurisdiction like in Cameroon? 08:30  Are your neighbours in Cameroon helping you to understand the geology ? 09:36  Does DY6 see themselves contributing in helping distribute information on the rutile prospectivity in Cameroon? 11:00  What is the Heavy Mineral number investors should look for? 13:50 What is the geological model for the Central Rutile Project? 15:11  What will 2025 and 2026 look like for investors? 17:38  What are the Key Milestones for DY6 Metals? 18:28  Is the market understanding DY6 Metals ? 19:35  What is the competition like in this sector? 20:23  Understanding the Heavy Mineral Sands sector. 21:09 What is the Rutile market like ? 22:46  Is the mining of Rutile simple? 24:11  What would you say to potential investors and existing shareholders? 27:16  The Malawi projects. 28:57  How is the Capital Market treating Titanium players? 30:32  Last Words from DY6 Metals? 31:59  Conclusion

This week in GoGROW, we were reminded that exploring God isn't just a stage we pass through — it's a real spiritual condition. But exploration isn't the finish line. Jesus tells us in John 3:3 that unless we are born again, we cannot see the Kingdom of God.Being in church doesn't mean being in Christ. Serving doesn't equal saving. Emotion isn't transformation. Exploring God isn't the same as knowing Him — it's a call to respond.We learned that not everyone who follows Jesus around is actually a disciple. Our role isn't just to walk with people, but to clearly share the Gospel and lead them to Jesus.2 Corinthians 5:20 reminds us that we are Christ's ambassadors — God is making His appeal through us. That means we must call people to salvation, inviting them into a moment of clarity, repentance, and faith.This week, our challenge is simple: keep reaching, keep planting seeds, and don't miss the opportunity to invite someone into a life-changing relationship with Jesus.Week 3 GoGROW – Key Takeaways1. Exploring God is a Real Spiritual Condition• It's not a placeholder or a casual label.• Jesus said in John 3:3 that we must be born again to see the Kingdom of God — exploration should lead to transformation.2. Proximity ≠ Discipleship• Being in church doesn't mean being in Christ.• Serving doesn't equal saving.• Feeling something emotionally isn't the same as experiencing real transformation.• Exploration must become response — a decision to follow Jesus.3. Walking vs. Leading• Not everyone who follows Jesus around is a disciple.• Our role as believers isn't just to “walk with” those exploring God but to clearly share the Gospel and lead them toward Christ.4. Share the Gospel Clearly• Who Jesus is• Why He died• What He offers• What He requires• We are called to be Christ's ambassadors (2 Corinthians 5:20), making His appeal to the world.5. Call People to Respond• Acts 3:19 – Repent, turn back, and receive forgiveness so times of refreshing may come.• Romans 10:9 – Confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord to be saved.• There must be a clear moment of invitation and response.6. Salvation is a Gift• Ephesians 2:8-9 – Salvation is by grace through faith, not by works — we cannot earn it.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 9-18-2025: Dr. Dawn opens by establishing her psychobiology background and introducing the neurohormonal axis connecting mind and body. She describes revolutionary research published in Nature Neuroscience showing that simply seeing sick people in virtual reality triggers actual immune responses. The study used VR avatars displaying infection symptoms approaching participants, measuring brain activity with EEG and fMRI while analyzing blood samples for immune cell changes. The research demonstrates that infectious avatars approaching in virtual reality activate the same immune pathways as actual flu vaccination. Brain areas including the salience network and peripersonal space system detect potential threats and communicate with the hypothalamus to trigger white blood cell activation. Proximity matters - threats 20 feet away don't trigger responses, but approaching threats do. Dr. Dawn explains the sophisticated methodology, including 128-channel EEG monitoring and flow cytometry analysis of immune markers. Participants showed faster reaction times when infectious avatars approached compared to neutral ones, demonstrating subconscious threat assessment. The study reveals built-in disgust responses that evolved to protect against pathogens. She comments on how her medical training rewire the protective disgust reaction through repeated exposure.. She transitions to discussing stress effects on gastrointestinal function, explaining how the gut-brain axis operates through the vagus nerve and neurohormonal pathways. The adrenal glands produce both immediate epinephrine responses and longer-term cortisol release, with chronic stress leading to digestive disruption, increased intestinal permeability, and microbiome changes that can trigger food sensitivities and autoimmune conditions. Dr. Dawn details the difference between acute and chronic stress responses in the gut. Acute stress redirects energy from digestion for fight-or-flight responses, while chronic stress causes mast cell activation, histamine release, mucus layer thinning, and bacterial overgrowth. These changes can lead to irritable bowel syndrome, increased food allergies, and even celiac disease in genetically susceptible individuals. The discussion covers various brain networks including the default mode network active during rest, the central executive network for problem-solving, and the salience network that switches between them when detecting important stimuli like threats, food, or reproductive opportunities. Functional MRI studies show these networks' activity patterns and their connections to immune system regulation through the hypothalamus. Dr. Dawn emphasizes practical implications for modern life, warning that constant screen exposure and doom-scrolling activate chronic stress responses unnecessarily. She recommends avoiding phones upon waking, spending time outdoors, wearing amber glasses for evening screen use, and practicing specific breathing techniques - inhaling for 5 counts, holding for 5, exhaling for 5, holding for 5 - to regulate nervous system activation and reduce inflammatory responses.

Mark shares insights from his book, The Retention Trap, emphasizing the importance of investing in human capital and creating a supportive work environment. Mark's approach challenges traditional notions of employee retention. Instead of merely keeping employees, the focus shifts to nurturing talent, even if it means preparing them for opportunities beyond the company. This holistic view of business as a steward of talent leads to dynamic enterprises and thriving communities. Mark also discusses the formation of a talent network (The SOURCE) among small businesses to enhance employee development and retention, ultimately redefining the purpose of business as a means to uplift individuals and communities.   Takeaways Employee engagement is the Holy Grail of business. Investing in human capital leads to resilient businesses. The soul of business is about making the world better. Retention should focus on the right people, not just keeping anyone. Creating a talent network can help small businesses thrive. It's okay for employees to seek growth outside the company. The ROI of investing in people can be multi-generational. Business should uplift individuals through their work. Understanding employee aspirations is key to retention. Proximity to employees allows for deeper relationships.

Interview with Nick Appleyard, President & CEO of TriStar Gold Inc.Our previous interview:Recording date: 11th September 2025TriStar Gold Corporation represents a compelling high-risk, high-reward investment opportunity centered on the exceptional economics of its Castelo de Sonhos gold project in Brazil's Pará state. The project's fundamentals are outstanding, containing 1.4 million ounces of probable gold reserves that generate a post-tax net present value of $1.4 billion at conservative $3,200 per ounce gold assumptions. This creates a remarkable valuation disconnect with TriStar's current market capitalization of approximately $55 million.The investment thesis is built on the project's technical simplicity and robust economics. CEO Nick Appleyard characterizes the operation as "sand and gold. Nothing else. Simplest processing you're ever going to see." This straightforward metallurgy reduces both technical risk and capital requirements while supporting strong margins throughout the mine life. Production profiles indicate significant scale, with the first seven years averaging 150,000 ounces annually before stabilizing at 120,000 ounces, positioning Castelo de Sonhos as a meaningful mid-tier gold operation.Location advantages further enhance the project's attractiveness. Proximity to existing road infrastructure reduces capital requirements typically associated with remote site development, while the technical simplicity of processing sand-hosted gold mineralization supports both economic viability and development timeline efficiency.The current investment opportunity stems from regulatory challenges that have created substantial valuation dislocation. TriStar faces permit suspension recommendations from Brazilian prosecutors based on allegedly insufficient indigenous consultation. However, the factual basis for these concerns appears questionable, with referenced indigenous groups located over 100 kilometers from the project site and no demonstrated environmental or cultural impact from exploration activities.Importantly, TriStar maintains strong local support where it matters most. Communities within reasonable proximity to the project support the company's activities, benefiting from employment opportunities and development programs. State regulatory agencies have provided robust defense of TriStar's permit applications, with the state environmental agency emphasizing that the company has followed all proper procedures and operates far from any potential impact areas.The legal process follows a defined timeline with defense filings expected by mid-October 2025, followed by judicial review through early 2026. Management estimates that approximately $1.5 million in legal and consultation expenses could provide project clarity and unlock construction licensing, representing modest capital deployment relative to potential value creation.Risk mitigation factors support the investment thesis despite regulatory uncertainty. TriStar maintains sufficient capital to navigate the legal process without forced fundraising at disadvantageous terms, while the company's single-asset focus allows management to concentrate entirely on resolution. The involvement of FUNAI, Brazil's federal indigenous affairs agency, provides procedural safeguards through evidence-based assessment standards rather than subjective claims.Historical precedent supports optimism for resolution. Similar regulatory challenges in Pará state have generally been resolved with projects advancing to production, suggesting these hurdles follow predictable patterns with established resolution mechanisms. Brazilian mining attorneys view such challenges as part of the operating environment rather than terminal project risks.For investors comfortable with Brazilian regulatory complexity and willing to accept defined timeline risk, TriStar Gold offers exceptional return potential through what management estimates could be a $100 million market value recovery upon regulatory clarity.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.comSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Reaching my 250th podcast episode feels monumental, and I couldn't think of a more fitting topic to mark this milestone than vulnerability...specifically, how to wield it as the powerful asset it truly is.Vulnerability... being emotionally transparent can create deeper connections and resolve conflicts more effectively, not all vulnerability leads to healing. The missing piece in most conversations about vulnerability is discernment, knowing when, where, and with whom to share your innermost feelings.Think of vulnerability as valuable currency. When invested wisely with people who demonstrate emotional maturity, trustworthiness, and consistency, it yields rich dividends of intimacy and understanding. When handed carelessly to those who haven't earned it or lack the capacity to hold it, it becomes costly, eroding the very relationships it should strengthen.The most transformative approach is becoming your own emotional container first. Before expecting others to hold your feelings with care, learn to sit with your own truths without shame or urgency. This internal safety allows you to share from a place of wholeness rather than seeking validation through exposure.Proximity does not equal permission. Just because someone is close to you doesn't mean they deserve access to your vulnerable self. Vulnerability also is not the sole measure of closeness in a relationship.Listen to see how it transforms your relationships when shared selectively with those worthy of this gift.=======================================================================================Wisdom Wednesdays is your chance to apply what you learn in this podcast.

Spencer Lodge blew my mind today. Top 100 most influential people in Dubai. Sales legend. Financial planning expert. This man built an empire on four simple steps that most people completely ignore. Spencer doesn't believe in cold calling. Says it's ridiculous. Waste of time. Instead he built a system that generated 45 referrals per week. Forty-five. Let that sink in. His approach is pure genius. Every prospect he meets gets asked for referrals whether they buy or not. Think about it. If you close four out of ten prospects what happens to the other six? Most salespeople walk away with nothing. Spencer walks away with referrals from all ten. That's the difference between average and legendary. His sales process is dead simple. Spencer spent 33 years overseas building wealth while others bought watches and cars for external validation. Now he focuses on teaching people the difference between assets and liabilities. Between security and restriction. Spencer chooses to hang around entrepreneurs and commission earners. People who celebrate big wins and push each other higher. Environment shapes mindset. Proximity matters. If you want unlimited earnings potential you need to be around people who think that way. Spencer's wisdom comes from decades of real experience. Not theory. Not motivational fluff. Practical systems that work in the real world with real people dealing with real money.Connect:Connect with Rick: https://linktr.ee/mrrickjordanConnect with Spencer: https://www.spencerlodge.tv/ Subscribe & Review to ALL IN with Rick Jordan on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/RickJordanALLINAbout Spencer: Award-Winning Podcast Host & Business Strategist Top 100 Most Influential People in Dubai.After making waves in the international financial services and sales industries for over three decades, building some of the largest and most successful multicultural sales forces, and being honored with countless corporate awards, Spencer expanded his role to serve his passion for elevating businesses and people' potential in an integrated way.His perseverance and unstoppable drive inspired him to create The Unscripted With Spencer Lodge Podcast – one of the most listened-to podcasts in the region.

McKay explores the pervasive lies that shape our lives, from media misinformation to self-deception in this latest instalment of the Open Your Eyes podcast. Throughout the episode, he argues that, in an age of rampant falsehoods, developing critical thinking is essential for personal growth and success.To illustrate this, our host dissects such viral hoaxes as a fake Disney World policy change and a deceptive TikTok diet scam, showing how easily falsehoods spread. McKay also examines the profound gap between public perception and the reality of declining crime rates, revealing how political narratives can create powerful, albeit false, beliefs. Finally, he shares the inspirational journey of ballerina Misty Copeland, whose success came from rejecting the lies of her difficult circumstances and embracing the truth of her potential. Join McKay today and learn how biases and emotional responses make us vulnerable as he shares his guide to challenging limiting beliefs and seeking empowering truths.

Summary In this episode, Andy interviews Jim Ferrell, author of  You and We: A Relational Rethinking of Work, Life and Leadership. Andy has long been a big fan of Jim's work with The Arbinger Institute, authoring Leadership and Self-Deception and The Anatomy of Peace.  In this conversation, Jim unpacks his insights on how leaders can move from a self-focused to a relational mindset. Drawing from his new book, Jim explains why our effectiveness as leaders depends not just on what we do, but on how we view and relate to the people around us. The discussion explores what it means to be relational instead of transactional, how leaders can better navigate conflict, and the subtle ways our self-deceptions hinder growth. Jim also shares practical ideas for building trust, leading with humility, and focusing on outcomes that matter most. This episode is packed with thought-provoking insights that will challenge how you think about leadership, culture, and collaboration. If you're looking for insights on how to become a more relational leader and truly impact those you serve, this episode is for you!

And if we're lousy at relation ourselves, we won't have a job.” "Those who can relate better, that's the uniquely human competitive advantage we bring to the marketplace." "The top people spend most of their time on the relational work, not on the other stuff. So you see it happening already. That's all going to be accelerating." “The most important part of the chart of any org chart is actually all the space in between the names and boxes, because that's where everything's happening, right?” “We went from the body economy to the mind economy to now the heart economy.” “Proximity is not necessarily closeness.” Chapters 00:00 Introduction 01:55 Start of Interview 02:07 Jim Ferrell's Backstory and Early Influences 06:17 About Jim Writing Leadership and Self-Deception 08:57 Exploring the Concept of Relation vs. Relationships 10:07 The Five Levels of Relation 13:19 Managing Relation in Organizations 17:29 The Shift to the Heart Economy 20:00 Insights from the Book 'You and We' 27:00 Proximity vs. Closeness in Remote Work 29:08 The Power of Hydrogen and Oxygen 29:46 Remote vs. In-Person Work Dynamics 32:14 The Importance of Connectivity in Teams 33:14 Understanding Relational Space 34:35 Personal Stories of Relation 37:48 How Can We Discern Where We Are in the Levels?

It's another Throwback Thursday, where we dig into the vault and find gold from days gone by. Here, we're going to join Rich on what they used to call their Tuesday Morning Ad Clinic; a client with a Siding Company asks Rich to critique some neighborhood mailers they got from their manufacturer… and when Rich took a look, the mailers basically just said “we're in your neighborhood.” Suffice it to say, he wasn't thrilled with that, so he gave them some advice as to what might work better.

In this focused solo episode of In The Lab, Ruben unpacks the lessons he learned from attending a three-day Nike tennis training camp and how they directly apply to business, real estate, and personal growth. He reflects on the four key pillars that make intensive training so powerful—proximity, reps, correction, and longevity—and why missing just one of these can make the entire experience meaningless.Drawing from his own journey as an athlete, coach, and entrepreneur, Ruben explains how the right environment accelerates progress, why repetition creates mastery, and how a single correction from a mentor can completely shift your trajectory. Most importantly, he emphasizes the compound effect: real transformation doesn't come from a one-time intensive but from consistent application over time.If you've ever been inspired by a boot camp, conference, or training program but struggled to sustain the momentum afterward, this episode will show you how to turn short bursts of intensity into long-term growth. Tune in now to learn how to leverage intensive training for lasting success in your business, health, and personal experiments.Connect with me at https://experimentrealestate.com/connectGet the FREE Mid-Term Rental Insurance Blueprint: https://experimentrealestate.com/#blueprint #EntrepreneurMindset #BusinessGrowth #Leadership #RealEstateStrategy #MindsetShift #CompoundEffect #ExperimentNation

Have you ever found yourself in a season where the unknowns feel stacked on top of each other? You're praying, you're showing up, you're doing what you know to do—but the future still seems hazy. It's like driving through heavy fog: you can see enough to keep moving forward, but what lies ahead feels blurred and out of reach.Seasons like this can make you wonder if God is distant, distracted, or even silent. But what if the fog isn't proof of His absence, but a space for deeper formation? What if, instead of clarity, God is offering you the gift of closeness? In this episode, we talk about how fog-filled seasons are often the places where God is most at work, reshaping your vision and anchoring your trust in Him.  Could it be that the fog is your greatest gift to increase your faith and understand a new level of intimacy with the Shepherd?Through honest stories, Scripture, and gentle rhythms for drawing near, you'll be encouraged to: • Name the fog that's clouding your peace and perspective. • Recognize the pull toward control when what you really need is communion. • Anchor your heart in who God is, not just what He does. • Choose praise as warfare when clarity is out of reach. • Stay near to Jesus when the way forward feels uncertain.If your heart feels unsettled, your prayers seem unanswered, or you're simply weary from the not knowing, this conversation is for you. It's a reminder that proximity to God—not clarity of the path—is what steadies you. The fog isn't your enemy; it may be the very place God reshapes your vision and deepens your trust.

Today's episode is from Mobile Home Park #16 that originally aired on July 28, 2016. Charles and I will discuss mistake number 8 from our popular eBook, “The 21 Biggest Mistakes Investors Make When purchasing their First Mobile Home Park…and how to avoid them.” One thing we see often is that many investors will choose to look for parks locally for the sole purpose of being near the park. There is nothing wrong with being close to your park, but you definitely don't need to be. If you find that you live in a market where CAP rates are insanely low or in a market that is going through tough times, you would be much wiser to invest outside of your immediate area. The business model and management style we teach is effective whether you live across the street from your park or across the country. Don't put yourself in the position of buying a bad investment just for the sake of being close to it. Proximity does not correlate to success in this business.
