850 Episodes In: 8 Lessons That Actually Move Your Business In this milestone episode, Doc Danny Matta reflects on 8+ years and 850 podcasts—what stuck, what changed, and what really matters if you want a durable, thriving cash-based PT business. From showing up consistently to building systems and recurring revenue, Danny lays out the playbook he wishes he had at the start. Episode Summary Consistency pays: Two episodes a week for 8+ years—compound impact over time. Origin story: From the Doc & Jock days to PT Entrepreneur, content created demand and clarity. The big mission: Add $1B in cash-based PT services; current community revenue already in the hundreds of millions. Clinic as a lab: Athletes' Potential evolved into a testing ground for systems shared with clients. Real talk on founder life: Leadership is lonely; sleep is non-negotiable; trolls don't pay the bills. What's next: More clinic tours, more stories, and a push toward a “no-brainer” clinic model for owners and staff. 8 Key Lessons Start before you're ready: Perfect timing is a myth—get moving and adjust. Content creates connection: Share values and useful guidance; consistency builds trust. Systems > motivation: Processes keep output steady when motivation dips. Leadership is lonely: Find a peer group; don't dump everything on your spouse. Recurring revenue changes everything: Stabilizes cash flow and deepens client outcomes. Protect sleep: Chronic deprivation wrecks health, judgment, and relationships. Trolls don't pay the bills: Ship the work; let your reputation and community speak. Delay gratification: Don't move the goalposts—bank the delta to build real freedom. Pro Tips You Can Use Today Document & delegate: Write the steps for your recurring tasks; hand off one this week. Publish on a schedule: Pick a cadence (e.g., weekly) and protect it like a patient slot. Add continuity: Offer a simple monthly performance/maintenance option for appropriate patients. Sleep floor: Set a personal minimum (e.g., 7 hours) and design evenings to hit it. Owner circle: Book a monthly coffee with 2–3 local entrepreneurs; talk shop and stress. Hold lifestyle creep: Keep expenses at the old income level for 12 months; invest the spread. Notable Quotes “The power of showing up is huge. Be a consistent person—it's rare.” “Systems beat motivation ten out of ten—motivation will wane.” “Recurring revenue stabilizes your business and changes patient lives.” “Trolls don't pay the bills—ship the work and help your people.” “Don't move the goalposts. Delay gratification to build real freedom.” Action Items Create a simple content system: topic list → record → edit → post → email/social. Launch one continuity offer (monthly check-in or performance session) for eligible patients. Block a consistent sleep window on your calendar for the next 30 days. Schedule a standing monthly founder meetup (90 minutes) with peers. Track one metric for 8 weeks (e.g., continuity MRR or weekly content cadence) and review.

Send us a textFor so many authors, writing a book feels like the pinnacle of their work—the culmination of years of learning, creativity, and leadership. But when the final chapter is written, there's often a gap. Those powerful ideas don't always leap from the page into programs, products, or lasting impact.On this episode of Authors Who Lead, I sit down with Charlotte Crowther—founder of Signature Framework—to explore how authors can codify their ideas into clear, visual frameworks that fuel growth, clarity, and influence. If you're writing a book or already have one out in the world, this conversation helps you think bigger about what comes next.Timestamp:00:00 Visual methodology coaching success03:14 Challenges in translating books to business09:20 Overthinking hinders authentic creativity12:18 Creative incubation strategy15:41 Courageous leadership through storytelling18:40 Magic of visual thinking20:09 Visual aids enhance communication26:25 From idea to action: Boss Mums29:47 Clarifying purpose for action-driven results32:11 Visual branding from written content35:26 Appreciation for creative guidanceFull show notesCOMMUNITY PROGRAMS

The real blocker usually isn't your product; it's confidence and not knowing what to say or where to say it. In this post, I'll show you two quick AI prompts that flip that script and give you the exact words and plan to promote—plus how to publish a ready-to-buy sales page with MiloTree's Free Plan in minutes (no website needed). Show Notes: MiloTree Confidence and Promotion AI Prompt Pack (Free Download) Digital Product Ladder AI Prompt (Free Download) 6 Purchasing Triggers Test Join The Blogger Genius Newsletter Become a Blogger Genius Facebook Group Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast: iTunes YouTube Spotify The Real Problem: “Who am I to sell this?” Most creators stall after hitting “publish” because they're afraid to promote. The result? Crickets—not because the product is bad, but because no one heard about it enough times to buy. The fix is a mindset + messaging shift you can trigger with AI in under a minute. The 60-Second Fix: Copy/Paste These 2 Prompts Prompt #1 — Confidence & Language Paste this into your AI tool: Act as my business coach and mindset mentor. I've created a digital product about [TOPIC] but I feel nervous promoting it. Remind me why my experience has value, explain how selling helps people, write me a confident script for talking about my product, and give me 5 places to share it today. Be encouraging but honest. This gives you: a quick reframe, a confidence boost, and a short script you can actually use in DMs, posts, and conversations. Prompt #2 — Distribution Plan (What to Post & Where) I'm ready to promote with confidence. Give me 10 places to share my product today with exact words for each platform (helpful, not salesy). Include social media, email ideas, and networking conversation starters. Also give me a simple 7-day promotion schedule. This turns “random posting” into a repeatable weekly cadence that compounds—how you go from your first $100 to your first $1,000. Make Buying Frictionless: Use MiloTree (Free Plan) Confidence is great—but people still need a place to buy. Here's the fast path with MiloTree: Set up your product in MiloTree → choose Digital Download. Name, price, and upload your PDF or file (e.g., “Time Management for Busy Moms” at $27). Click Create Sales Page → MiloTree's AI writes your sales copy for you. Get one shareable link you can paste everywhere (social, email, DMs). Payments go to you via Stripe; MiloTree auto-delivers the file to customers. Why creators love this workflow No website or tech stack required AI-written sales page (goodbye blank page) Auto-delivery + instant payments Share one link everywhere and focus on consistent promotion

Episode #99 – John DeDakis: From White House Press Room to Novels & Edits In this episode, I talk with John DeDakis — former White House correspondent, longtime journalist, editor at CNN's The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer, now novelist, writing coach, and editor. We unpack what it means to tell stories in news versus fiction, the hard lessons behind writing & rewriting, and how editing makes (or breaks) everything. We cover: · What it was like being a White House correspondent (including covering presidents, handling fast-breaking political stories) · Working in newsrooms, particularly editing for CNN's The Situation Room and what senior copy editing taught him about clarity, deadlines, and truth in storytelling · How John made the jump from journalism to fiction: his first novel, the process, revisions, the rejections, and ultimately getting published · The importance of editing: in journalism, in novels, in shaping story structure, voice, pacing — how a good editor or self-editing can elevate a work significantly About John DeDakis · Former White House correspondent (during Reagan administration) · Senior Copy Editor on CNN's The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer · Author of six mystery/suspense/thriller novels in the Lark Chadwick series, including Fast Track, Bluff, Troubled Water, Bullet in the Chamber, Fake, Enemies Domestic. · Writing coach and manuscript editor; leads workshops; teaches novel writing at literary centers/conferences. What you'll get out of this episode · Insights into how journalism and fiction intersect — what lessons from news help with writing novels · Real talk about rejection, rewriting, and patience in creative work · A picture of how editing isn't just polishing, but deeply structural: voice, pace, truth, character, etc. · Inspiration if you're a writer in transition, or thinking about how to build authenticity and ethical foundations into your work https://johndedakis.com/ The podcast I am trying to remember the name of is Revisionist History with Malcolm Gladwell
On today's episode of the podcast I chat with my book coach, Jodi Brandon, about the process of writing a book for your business. From concept to completion, Jodi works with business owners who want to write a book to help market their business. Jodi is my book coach, friend, and we have been in a business mastermind together for over five years now. The doors to my signature program, Unf*ck Your Biz, are currently open. We're capping it at 10 members this go around so if you've been thinking you need to get yout business and tax shit legit, head to notavglaw.com/uyb I chat with Jodi about the process of writing my book, Unf*ck Your Biz, which stemmed from the curriculum of my signature program of the same name. Jodi shares that the key for business owners writing a book is to know how to use it in a way that works for their business. For me, it started as wanting it to be my lead gen offer. I wanted reading the book to make people want to sign up for the program. We still use it like this, but I now aso use it as the textbook for the Unf*ck Your Biz program. When I first came out with the book, against Jodi's advice, I left out some of the juicy info so it because I was worried that people wouldn't join my program if they got everything they needed. But this was not the case, people still needed to implement the work we cover in the book, so I added all the info back in and now it doubles as the course reference book. I'm currently on the third edition of my book. There was a year between editions one and two and then two years later we came out with edition three and added in four chapters I currently want to add two more chapters on trademarks and update some of my personal anecdotes, but the content itself is evergreen. The book has also been a great tool for in-person conferences. People love a tangible item at tradeshows and events so it's been a great lead gen in that way. You can also buy the book on its own on my website for $30. Jodi has played a role in over 900 books getting published. She sees that small business owners are really dialing in now and paying less attention to what the bigger, traditionally-published authors are doing. There's also been a shift from needing to have your book on Amazon to it being icing on the cake but that the real ROI is coming from direct sales whether of the book individually or in a bundle. Jodi has written her own book on the process of writing a book for your business, titled Write. Publish. Market. From Idea to Published Book: The Entrepreneur's Blueprint. The goal for her book is to make the process of writing a book less intimidating for business owners and to know they can hide Jodi if they don't want to DIY the process themselves. It's a top of funnel lead generator for her business along with a credibility/authority boost.

On the Schmooze Podcast: Leadership | Strategic Networking | Relationship Building
What if done really is better than perfect, especially when writing the first draft of your book? Too many brilliant voices get stuck in the trap of trying to make every sentence flawless before they've even finished the first draft. But perfectionism doesn't move ideas forward. Action does. And in the world of thought leadership, clarity comes after courage. The truth is, writing a book isn't about getting it right the first time. It's about showing up for your message, trusting the process, and being willing to revise, refine, and grow along the way. Every imperfect draft is proof that you're doing the real work. That's why I support authors at every step of the journey—from messy beginnings to powerful launches—so their ideas don't stay stuck in their heads. I'm not a writing coach or developmental editor. I'm a strategist. I'll ask you questions to confirm that you're writing the book that will lead to your desired results. Book a complimentary 30-minute session at www.BookLaunchBrainstorm.com. Now, let's hear from three authors who didn't let the pursuit of perfection stop them from sharing something meaningful with the world: Greg Davis wrote “Checkmate: Tips & Lessons to Help You Make the Right Moves to Achieve Happiness!,” a practical and heartfelt guide that blends life lessons and financial wisdom to help you make the right moves toward lasting happiness. Jeff Skipper wrote “Dancing with Disruption: Leading Dramatic Change During Global Transformation,” revealing 12 proven strategies that equip leaders with the tools to overcome resistance and lead bold transformations with confidence. Jenn T. Grace is the author of “Publish Your Purpose: A Step-By-Step Guide to Write, Publish, and Grow Your Big Idea.” She's also the founder of Publish Your Purpose, a hybrid publisher for authors who are thought leaders, experts in their fields, and visionaries paving the way to social change—and one of our Biz Book Pub Hub Partners. Please join me in welcoming Greg, Jeff, and Jenn. In this episode, we discuss the following:

If your traffic fell off a cliff after recent Google updates and AI answers, you're not alone—especially if you're a recipe, YMYL (Your Money or Your Life), or niche blogger who used to win with long posts and ads. But SEO isn't dead—it's evolved. In my latest Blogger Genius Podcast episode, I'm talk to SEO strategist, Steven Schneider, who breaks down exactly how creators can still win in 2025: build visible authority, earn strategic backlinks, improve UX, and shift revenue toward newsletters and products. Show Notes: MiloTree Free Plan Steven Schneider 6 Purchasing Triggers Test Join The Blogger Genius Newsletter Become a Blogger Genius Facebook Group Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast: iTunes YouTube Spotify The Problem Creators Are Facing in 2025 AI is answering queries and compressing clicks—brutal for “quick-answer” niches like recipes. Google is rewarding authority (E-E-A-T) and punishing thin UX (endless scroll, intrusive ads, fluff). Old playbooks (publish more posts, stuff in keywords, hope for ad RPM) don't move the needle. Solution in a sentence: Treat search like a brand + authority channel, not a traffic lottery. Build proof of expertise on every page, earn real mentions/links, and turn all attention into owned audiences and product revenue. What's Working Now (According to Steven) 1) Authority > everything Add clear E-E-A-T signals on every post and key page (not just your About page): Real author byline + headshot 2–3 credential links (culinary school, certifications, LinkedIn) Awards/press mentions (linked) Concise author bio block on each post This helps Google and readers trust that a human expert wrote it. 2) Backlinks with intent (no spray-and-pray) Guest on podcasts (links in show notes = high-quality, relevant). Offer expert quotes to other bloggers/journalists; pitch quick 2–3 sentence tips they can drop in with a link. Vary anchor text (brand, URL, topical phrases) and use reciprocal links sparingly. Paying for “time” vs “links” is a gray area—be selective and ethical. 3) UX that respects the reader Stop the 4,000-word detours; give the answer fast and add optional depth. Keep one H1 per page, logical H2/H3s, strong internal linking, and basic schema hygiene. Recipes/how-to: lead with the steps; put the story below. 4) BOFU content (not just top-of-funnel) Steven's agency prioritizes bottom-of-funnel, high-intent topics that convert to leads or sales—because SEO must tie to revenue. 5) Newsletter > ad RPM Clicks are down, but email still converts. Build a free newsletter, nurture weekly, and sell your own offers (ebooks, mini-courses, templates, memberships). 7-Step Action Plan (Do this in the next 14 days) Add E-E-A-T blocks site-wide Byline, headshot, 2–3 credential links, “Reviewed by” where relevant. Fix on-page structure One H1, clean headings, scannable sections, strong internal links among related posts. Create one “wow” asset (lead magnet or calculator) Examples: Gluten-free flour swap chart (instant, high-value) Meal-prep planner (fillable PDF) ROI/Cost calculator (tools get links + emails) Pitch 10 podcasts in your niche Offer 3 topic angles, a short bio, and a value-packed outline; request a site link in show notes. Run a “quote outreach” sprint Identify 25 relevant posts; email the author a ready-to-paste 2–3 sentence expert tip + your preferred link target (vary anchors). Publish 3 BOFU posts Bottom-of-funnel queries aligned to your product (e.g., “Meal-prep templates,” “Gluten-free baking guide PDF,” “One-hour blogging audit”). Launch or revive your newsletter Weekly format: 1 tip, 1 tool, 1 template. Soft-pitch your product/freebie in each send. Make This Easy (and Free) with MiloTree With the MiloTree Free Plan, you can: Sell one digital product (ebook, template, workshop replay) Offer a freebie/lead magnet with automatic delivery Add a social pop-up to grow followers while you sleep Spin up AI-generated pages (sales + opt-in) in minutes
You're not alone if a strong publication didn't land. More often than not, the problem isn't the paper - it's the data behind your target selection. In this episode, scientific communication expert Mike Cashman (Mavens) and data expert Mike Taylor (Altmetric) share how publications teams are using smarter data to guide journal selection and improve impact.Learn how real-world signals like citations, clinical uptake, and policy mentions from Dimensions and Altmetric help teams prioritize journals, plan effectively, and track downstream influence. You'll also hear how this data gets embedded directly into planning workflows, so teams can make confident decisions right where they work.This is a practical, clear look at how to simplify complex planning, cut through the noise, and make smarter, faster decisions. Whether you're refining strategy or proving value post-publication, it's time your tools work as hard as you do.
This is the 5th episode in my 6-part Authority Short Cuts series, designed to give you quick, high-impact ways to amplify your visibility, credibility, and client attraction. What if you could skip the grind of chasing social algorithms, pouring hours into content, or spending thousands on ads and instead, tap into a built-in audience that's already waiting to hear your message? That's the power of podcast guesting.

The conversation explores both short-term and long-term solutions, including the proposed "Publish or Perish" soft fork to disincentivize selfish mining, defensive mining strategies, and the controversial idea of incorporating proof-of-stake elements or a finality layer to enhance network security. Vinny argues that while Monero's proof-of-work and ASIC resistance are valuable for decentralization and permissionless mining, all proof-of-work systems are inherently vulnerable to such attacks, and the community should remain open to researching hybrid or alternative consensus models without ideological dogma. The dialogue emphasizes the importance of open debate, technical innovation, and community resilience in navigating Monero's current crisis, while also touching on broader themes of digital cash, sovereignty, and interoperability with other privacy and scalable cryptocurrencies like Zcash and Nano.

Business partnerships can be powerful accelerators for growth—but only when they're built on a healthy foundation. In this episode, we dive into the three essentials every entrepreneur needs to navigate collaborations with confidence: boundaries, agreements, and polarization. You'll discover how clear boundaries protect your time, energy, and vision without burning bridges, why written and verbal agreements create trust and prevent messy misunderstandings, and how leaning into polarization actually strengthens partnerships by keeping both sides aligned with their values. If you've ever struggled with partnerships that drained you instead of propelling you forward, this episode will give you practical tools to build connections that are both profitable and life-giving.

I used to think I needed to build something massive to matter. Publish groundbreaking research. Get recognized. Maybe even win awards. But when I look back, the people who shaped me the most—my mom and dad—never chased any of that.They just did small things. My mom still knits mittens for people in her community. My dad used to give away carrots and potatoes from his garden. No one gave them a medal. No one wrote them into history books. But when they left, the absence was felt.This episode is about how real impact often looks like nothing at all. It's invisible. It's humble. And it changes everything.If you're feeling like your work, your life, or your research doesn't matter unless it's loud, flashy, or celebrated—you need to hear this.Because the truth is: we don't need more geniuses. We need more people who show up, give away the extra carrots, and knit mittens.Take care. And be that kind of person.
Ross Simmonds breaks down how AI overviews and LLMs are changing search—and what small businesses can do to keep winning. We dig into why brand and owned channels matter more than ever, how to diversify beyond Google, which third-party domains LLMs love to cite, and a simple focus formula for content distribution. Key TakeawaysThe SERP is shifting to answers and transactions; fewer clicks to your site means brand + owned channels are mission-critical. Now is the time to publish unique, story-driven content that LLMs can cite later. Create assets your “future you” will be grateful for. Diversify discovery: show up where buyers research (TikTok, Pinterest, Instagram, Etsy), not just on Google. Search behavior has shifted—people use Instagram/YouTube/TikTok for ideas and how-tos; optimize for those journeys. To influence LLM answers, seed multiple authoritative domains (LinkedIn, Reddit, Medium, Quora) with your message. “Be excellent on one channel” first; syndicate elsewhere even if it's not perfect—then expand. Optimize your life too: sleep and calendars drive better marketing than nonstop grind. Listener Action ItemsPick your “home” channel and get excellent at it for 90 days; syndicate the same posts to 2 other platforms with light edits. Publish 3–5 unique, story-rich assets this month that your future self wants LLMs to cite. Seed third-party domains (LinkedIn article, Reddit thread, Medium post, Quora answer) with your core message to boost LLM citation odds. Audit discovery: can buyers find you on Pinterest/Instagram/TikTok/Etsy for your “money” searches? If not, claim and optimize profiles. Protect your energy: schedule sleep, workouts, and weekly calendar reviews before adding new marketing experiments.

Send Krystal a Text Message.Feeling burned out with content creation? You're not alone. Many creators face exhaustion and frustration, often due to three key mistakes.First, poor planning can overwhelm you. Implementing the PREP'M Method (Plan, Record, Edit, Publish, Market) allows successful creators to prioritize planning, which in turn gives them more freedom in their personal life outside of content creation.Second, last-minute content creation turns joy into stress. The scramble to meet deadlines leads to burnout, making it hard to maintain a sustainable practice.Lastly, inauthentic content—like adopting a persona or following trends that don't resonate with you—can be draining. Authenticity is vital; create what excites you and evolve.To combat burnout, focus on better content practices that bring enjoyment. If you're not having fun, that's a major red flag. Subscribe for more strategies to build a sustainable and fulfilling creator journey!Click the "Send Krystal a Text Message" link above to send us your questions, comments, and feedback on the show!

00:00 – Check Your Data FirstIf your content isn't working, don't start guessing—start with the numbers. Data reflects human behavior.00:34 – Where to Check Your InsightsReview analytics on platforms like Spotify, iTunes, YouTube, and your hosting platform. But the key isn't just looking—it's interpreting.01:12 – Don't Decide in IsolationA single video or post underperforming doesn't always mean failure. Variables like title, thumbnail, hook, and intro all play a role.03:15 – The Power of a HookThe first 60–90 seconds are critical. Your intro should represent your episode's promise and capture attention quickly.04:17 – Study What WorksLook at patterns from creators in your niche. Don't copy—observe how they structure and tell stories.05:27 – Titles, Thumbnails, and Brand AuthorityHook, title, and even your name affect discoverability. Strong brand authority increases visibility and trust.06:39 – Long-Form vs. Short-Form TestingSocial media allows rapid testing; long-form (like podcasts) takes more time to gather data. Plan accordingly.08:44 – Analyze on a 90-Day WindowTrends shift. 90 days gives enough time to collect meaningful data and adjust quarterly strategies.10:00 – When You Don't Know What to Do NextGo back to your data. It's your best reference point. If interpretation is hard, get support.11:04 – A/B Testing with TubeBuddyTry different titles/thumbnails. But again, it should align with your core message and your audience's behavior.12:18 – Strategy Over SpaghettiPosting consistently is not enough. Know who you're talking to and test intentionally to refine your strategy.13:18 – Don't Get Burned Out by ExpectationsNot all content will perform. Publish, gather data, and iterate. That's how you find your sweet spot.14:32 – Competitor vs. Inspiration AnalysisUse similar creators to map out what's working—but come from a place of inspiration, not comparison.15:31 – You Might Already Have Warm LeadsStop only chasing new followers. You may already have people primed to buy—you just need the right nudge.18:10 – Different Strategies for Different LeadsNew leads vs. warm leads require different types of content. Know where your audience stands.19:20 – Platform Insights Are GoldUse Instagram and YouTube data to learn your audience's age, activity times, and location.21:01 – You Don't Need Virality to WinGoing viral feels good, but it's not the only strategy.

For Neera Mahajan, a professional critique about her written English didn't derail her career; it sparked an extraordinary second act as an author, book coach, and community builder."The only thing standing between you and the senior management position is your written English," Neera's boss told her years ago. Rather than accepting this limitation, she embraced it as a challenge, eventually publishing eight books and building a thriving community of writers who benefit from her unique approach to making the writing and publishing process accessible to everyone.In this conversation, Neera reveals the surprising method she used to write her first book in just one week, a technique that has since helped countless aspiring authors overcome the paralyzing perfectionism that prevents most books from ever seeing the light of day. "Get the story out," she advises, "it doesn't matter how many pages it is." The beauty of self-publishing, she explains, is that you can continuously improve your book over time.For professionals looking to establish authority in their field, Neera offers a compelling perspective: "The fastest way to develop authority in any area is by writing a book on it." The process itself transforms you as much as it transforms your career prospects. By organizing your knowledge into a book, you clarify your own thinking and create a foundation for all your future content.Neera's practical wisdom and inspiring journey prove that it's never too late to reinvent yourself through words. At 57, she was just getting started on her most fulfilling chapter yet.Have a comment? Text me!Support the show****************************************************************************➡️ P.S

Our conversation is a goldmine for aspiring authors who wrestle with the pressure to be original, the fear of starting, and the all-too-familiar sting of writer's block. Together, we explore how the writing process—far from being mystical or reserved for geniuses—is something deeply human, honest, and accessible.Timestamp:00:00 Internet transparency movement origins06:10 Internet explorations and new paths07:29 Tim Ferriss' timely insight11:12 Early networking and generosity15:51 Conference speech writing hack18:10 Authors' need for control21:47 Before the Exit insights25:16 Founder mode's accelerated influence28:19 The 1000-day principle33:22 High output drives success35:49 Creative limits enhance artistic expression37:52 Creative freedom vs. impactful writing42:29 Overcoming creative doubt46:02 Personal podcast narratives48:48 Writing as a life-changing idea53:39 Impulsive ticket purchase regrets55:03 Apprenticeship success at MeetupFull show notesCOMMUNITY PROGRAMS
