Stop treating everybody like a number; go back to having conversations.This starts when you're a list building. This starts when you're attracting your followers. This starts just like it does in the real world. You greet them. You have a conversation. You ask questions. You get a feedback loop. You actually get to know one another.If you want to have a smaller list, that's more impactful, a list that's full of people that will actually buy your offers, you need to rewind back and stop treating people like a one and a zero. Stop looking at the vanity metrics.Lean in and actually have real conversations again. When we're engaged in real conversations what naturally happens is we start to know our people, we know how to message them and how to guide them into our offer and you're going to make a bigger impact in those people's lives.Resources:Adaptive Inner Circle - The Adaptive Inner Circle with Paul & Melissa Pruitt is an epic 12-month experience for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners who aspire to create financial freedom and a lifestyle they want for themselves and their family and also create a positive impact in their community and the world.Adaptive Marketing Program - Adaptive Marketing Program is an exclusive opportunity for online business owners, coaches, course creators, and membership site owners to play bigger and bolder in their business and explode their bank account with more clients!For a list of our resources & recommendations visit: https://onlinemarketingpodcast.com/learn-with-paul-melissa/Connect with us on social!Instagram: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruittFacebook: @realpaulpruitt & @realmelissapruitt

I'll be sharing more about what's happening in my business, what's unfolding in my life, and the lessons I'm learning as I navigate this next chapter. Joining me as guest host for this special reflective series is someone who needs no introduction to our community — the incomparable Ms. Kelli Kirkland! I invite you to tune in for a more introspective edition of Real Conversations from the C-Suite, where the roles are reversed — and this time, I'm the one in the guest chair.Connect with me!Web - https://www.doctoranita.com/YouTube - https://bit.ly/DrAnitaYouTubeLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/anita-polite-wilson-ph-d-77695b/

There's a quiet kind of suffering most men carry—and it comes from loyalty to the wrong things.Maybe it's a job that's slowly draining you...a city that no longer fits who you are...a one-sided friendship where you're always the one giving.. or an outdated identity you should have shed long ago. You keep showing up out of obligation, thinking it's noble—but deep down, you know it's costing you.This isn't about disloyalty to your values or your brothers...It's about waking up to the ways you're betraying yourself in the name loyalty. And loyalty to the wrong things will keep you from the life you were meant to live.If something inside you knows it's time to make a change—this episode is your sign.Check out my Online Men's Coaching Community We Are The They and see how it's changing men's lives across the globe!Get my FREE guide with 45 Days of Simple Tips to Become a Better ManPick up my USA Today bestselling book Be One: How to Be a Healthy Man in Toxic TimesJoin the Real Men, Real Conversations Facebook Group

As a teen leadership coach and a parent of two teenage boys, I've seen firsthand the struggles teens face—and the frustrations parents feel trying to connect with them. From privacy concerns (like knocking before entering their rooms) to trust issues surrounding phones and social media, and even more serious challenges like vaping, the underlying issue always seems to come back to one question: How are we engaging with our teens?       I often hear parents say, “I get it—we had no training for this technology. We're learning as we go, and we're probably getting it wrong.” And that's okay. What matters most is that we start listening—really listening—to our teens.       When Was the Last Time You Had a Real Conversation with Your Teen?   Not just the usual “How was your day?” followed by a one-word response. I mean a genuine, open-ended conversation where they felt heard and understood.       Many teens don't feel comfortable talking to their parents because they're afraid of how we'll react. My 17-year-old shared that a lot of his friends feel trapped in vaping addictions but won't talk to their parents out of fear. Instead of seeking help, they silently accept the health risks because they don't believe their parents will support them—only punish them.       When my own son struggled with vaping, he told me he initially did it to fit in and to ease his anxiety. That terrified me. How could something so harmful be seen as a solution? Later, he admitted it was actually making things worse, but at the time, he knew telling me it helped with anxiety would make me listen. And it did.             Trusting Your Teen—Not to Be Perfect, But to Make Mistakes   Every child needs something different from their parents. One of my sons values privacy; the other benefited from having his door removed when he was struggling. It wasn't about punishment—it was about connection and accountability. We have to trust our teens—not to always make the right choices, but to come to us when they don't.       When my kids get in trouble at school, I don't double down with additional punishments at home. I remember being grounded as a teen—it didn't stop me from making mistakes, but it did teach me to hide them better. Instead of reacting based on fear or our own reputations, we need to help our teens navigate their mistakes and learn from them.   How Do You Want Me to Help You an Open Conversation?   Not every issue is life-threatening. Some are as small as not knocking before entering their room. Others, like phone usage and social media, are bigger. But in all cases, the key is to ask, listen, and engage.   Start by asking: How do you want me to help you figure this out?  How do you want me to listen to you?  How am I showing up for you?       As parents, we make the final decisions, but giving our teens a voice in the conversation makes all the difference. If we create a space where they feel safe to talk—where honesty is met with understanding instead of just consequences—they'll be more likely to come to us when it matters.       I have found the biggest way to bring your teen home to talk to you is by being honest about your own mistakes. Show them that learning, growing, and making better choices is a lifelong process.
