The trap that almost all coaches fall into is assuming that experience eliminates the need for curiosity in growing our businesses. In today's episode, I'm sharing personal revelations from leading the Enroll More Clients Clarity Sprint. I've rediscovered my message by doing every exercise along with the participants, and I've learned that even experienced coaches need curiosity to keep their practices fresh and avoid stagnation. Today's focus is on the elements of magnetic messaging and why coaches should use their clients' language instead of “coach speak.” We can't assume that our experience eliminates the need for curiosity, so let's talk about why that's a dangerous assumption, what we can miss along the way, and what happened when I chose differently.Show Highlights:Reasons why experienced coaches stop doing “the work” they ask their clients to doGet out of the clouds and speak your client's language.Three elements of magnetic messaging: clarity, conciseness, and confidenceUnderstanding the transformation pathFocused repetition and daily immersion in skills developmentGetting trapped in analysis paralysisCuriosity and keeping your practice fresh and aliveIsolation vs. collaborationCommunity vs. “figuring it all out by myself”The Star Coach Community: what we offer Give yourself the gifts of clarity, community, collaboration, and mentorship.

This podcast is brought to you by Outcomes Rocket, your exclusive healthcare marketing agency. Learn how to accelerate your growth by going to⁠ outcomesrocket.com Diagnostic intelligence is transforming healthcare by turning lab testing from a cost center into a strategic asset.  In this episode, Dr. Julie Schulz, Vice President of Product at Avalon Healthcare Solutions, discusses how integrating diagnostics into value-based care can lead to improved quality, lower costs, and enhanced preventive medicine. She notes that physicians are overwhelmed by the rapid growth of genetic testing and evolving clinical guidelines, leading to cognitive overload and inefficiencies. Diagnostic intelligence, she explains, can alleviate this by identifying the right tests at the right time and automating prior authorizations, reducing treatment timelines from 60 days to just 15. Dr. Schulz emphasizes that diagnostics inform 70% of healthcare decisions, making their effective use vital for improving access and outcomes, particularly among underserved populations, and underscores that simplifying data and embedding clinical decision support earlier can benefit both patients and providers.

Live, facilitated groups that confront loneliness head-on are a powerful and scalable lever for real behavior change. In this episode, co-founders of Keep Company, Adrienne Prentice (CEO) and Claudia Naim-Burt (COO), share how synchronous, human-to-human groups outperform message boards and self-guided programs by dissolving shame, fostering accountability, and improving outcomes like retention and sustainable performance.

Brandon Thor walked away from managing $400 million on Wall Street to launch Thor Metals Group, a company built on education and transparency about gold and silver investing. He exposes how traditional finance and government debt have distorted money's true value, and why gold remains the most reliable measure of wealth in history.In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Brandon breaks down how the U.S. moved off the gold standard, why the dollar's strength is fading, and how economic shifts and global alliances are reshaping financial security. He explains why most Americans overlook precious metals, how crypto distracted investors, and why he believes owning gold and silver is critical for protecting real wealth today. Quotes: “Gold and silver have never gone to zero, and never will. You can't print them, and that's exactly why they hold value.” “Crypto was marketed as digital gold, but it's the opposite. Gold protects your wealth. Crypto gambles with it.” “If you believe the government will pay off its debt and the world will live in peace, don't buy gold. Otherwise, you might want to think again.” “The system hates investments where you're the only one who benefits. That's what gold and silver represent—sovereignty.” Resources: Connect with Brandon Thor on LinkedIn Visit Brandon Thor's Website Follow Brandon Thor on Instagram

I was so honored to be joined by spiritual teacher and energy healer Eva Müller for a rare, first-hand tour through different states of consciousness. Eva recounts the dissolving of identity in samadhi, the beauty and shock of unity consciousness, the stark emptiness of Brahman, and how unconditional love returns in a new way. We talk about expectations versus reality, why "more expansion" can surface shadow, and what embodiment looks like after big openings. At the end, Eva guides a potent 10-minute meditation that expands your field, clears surface energies, opens the central channel, and calls in a golden light to awaken the divine spark. Bookmark it and return when you want a reset.

Cyberthreats are everywhere, and while they may be inevitable, their impact can be manageable. Institutions who are prepared for cybersecurity disruptions are proactive and collaborative about their response. This episode of the Forward Thinking Podcast features FCCS SVP of Marketing and Communications Stephanie Barton, Lisa Parrinello, FCCS VP of Risk Management & Insurance Services and Naomi Baumann, FCCS VP of Claims & Insurance Services. Together they discuss how Farm Credit's Captive Insurance Company is helping institutions strengthen their cyberdefenses and what boards of directors need to know to stay ahead of the cybersecurity game.    Episode Insights Include:   The bigger picture of cyberthreats Cyberthreats used to be considered an IT-only problem, but that isn't the case anymore.  These enterprise-wide issues demand board-level attention.  Ransomware, extortion, targeted financial systems and AI deep-fake impersonations are some of today's biggest cyberthreats.  The goal today isn't just protection, it's resilience. A prepared institution can respond and recover from cyberthreats no matter where they hit.    The role of Farm Credit's Captive Insurance Company As the captive, they provide institutions cyber insurance and management services that go beyond what commercial insurance markets can offer.  They offer tailored protection designed specifically for the unique cooperative structure of Farm Credit.  Collaborative claims management proactively responds to any incident or threat of incident.  Their strategic access to commercial markets allows them to purchase insurance as well.  Over the years, Captive has saved an average of $50 million in insurance coverage.  Consistent system-wide learning whenever instances occur.    Resilience tools and strategies  Resilience requires a multi-layered approach based on assents and security needs.  Threat detection and response pinpoint vulnerability, endpoint detection, and tabletop exercises.  Human-centric risk management and ongoing employee training are critical for cyber risk management.  Employees and people are always going to be the weakest link in cybersecurity.  Data protection and resilience in communications in sensitive information need to be encrypted and backup tested.  Cybersecurity is not an impenetrable armor, it is an anatomy with multiple systems working together to respond and continue operating in a culture of proactive risk management.    The pivotal role of the board  Directors need to prioritize an approved annual cyber risk manual.  Ongoing development and maintenance of a robust program is essential.  Boards should receive quarterly reports on threats, vulnerabilities and mitigation actions.  Cyber oversight needs to be integrated into business technology planning.  FCA should be notified within 36 hours of any cyber incident.    The culture of cybersecurity Institutions build resilience when everyone is involved.  Third party oversight and engagement with cyber-focused legal counsel is crucial.  Most breeches don't happen in bad systems, they happen when good people let down their guard.  Muscle memory kicks in when crisis hits, but only when preparation has occurred.  Ultimately, cybersecurity is everyone's business.    This podcast is powered by FCCS.   Resources   Connect with Lisa Parrinello — Lisa Parrinello   Connect with Naomi Baumann — Naomi Baumann   Get in touch   info@fccsconsulting.com   "The goal isn't just protection – it's resilience." — Naomi Baumann   "The Captive provides consistent system-wide learning whenever instances occur." —  Lisa Parrinello    "Human-centric risk management and ongoing employee training are critical for cyber risk management." — Naomi Baumann   "Employees and people are always going to be the weakest link in cybersecurity." — Naomi Baumann   "Even without a deep technical knowledge, boards can strengthen resilience by asking the right questions and staying engaged." —  Lisa Parrinello    "Institutions build resilience when everyone is involved." — Naomi Baumann   Resilience is just as much about people as it is about systems." — Naomi Baumann

This goes well beyond traditional claims systems.Analytics must merge claims, clinical, and engagement data with medical economics precision. Insights then have to reach providers and advocates so care is both effective and reimbursable.A significant amount of value now resides outside of claims in disease management, digital tools, and condition management programs. Members need clear navigation and transparency on what they have, where to go, and what it costs.Provider enablement is essential for value-based care. Success depends on aligned incentives, shared operations, coaching, and trust between plans and providers.Strategic investments should prioritize scalable administration, robust operations, and data pipelines.

She specializes in recruiting nonprofit CEOs and helping professionals master relationship-building, interviewing, and networking. Marcia explains that interviewing is not about performance or selling yourself, but about authentic, relational conversations that help both sides assess fit. She shares insights from years of observing real interviews, offering a rare look at what hiring leaders truly think when candidates leave the room. In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Marcia reveals how to approach interviews as high-stakes, million-dollar decisions, where listening, curiosity, and confidence matter more than rehearsed answers. She breaks down the four types of interview questions—skills, style, risk mitigation, and logistics—and explains how to answer each effectively. Marcia emphasizes that the goal isn't just to “get the job,” but to find the right one. The candidates who win are those who stay calm, thoughtful, and discerning, proving that the most successful interviewees are the choosiest ones. Quotes: If you find yourself selling in an interview, close your folio, thank them, and leave. You're not getting the job.” “An interview is a million-dollar decision. The smartest candidates approach it like a consultant, not a salesperson.” “Winning the interview isn't about perfection. It's about having an authentic conversation and deciding if it's the right fit for both sides.” “The candidates who get the job aren't the loudest. They're the ones who listen, think, and stay curious.” Resources: Connect with Marcia Ballinger on LinkedIn Winning the Executive Interview on Amazon

If you've ever laid awake at 3AM, counting sheep, overanalyzing your life, and stressing that you'll be a zombie tomorrow, this episode, part 2 of our series on sleep, is one  you don't want to miss.Today, Susan and Kate sit down with the Dr. Christopher Winter, neurologist, sleep medicine specialist, and author of The Sleep Solution and The Rested Child. He's the go-to expert for pro athletes, firefighters, and anyone who's ever wondered, “What's wrong with my sleep?”But here's the twist: according to Dr. Winter, your sleep might not be “broken” at all. In fact, the way we think about sleep, our fears, expectations, and obsession with perfection, might be the real problem.This isn't another conversation about blue light and blackout curtains. Dr. Winter flips the script on everything you think you know about insomnia, sleep hygiene, and the infamous “8-hour rule.” You'll laugh, you'll learn, and you might just stop fearing those restless nights once and for all.Because maybe, just maybe… your body knows exactly what it's doing.In this episode:Insomnia isn't a disease, it's a perception.  Most people who say they “can't sleep” are actually sleeping more than they realize. The problem isn't sleep, it's the anxiety about sleep.The real secret? Be happy awake or asleep. When you stop fearing wakefulness, insomnia loses its power.This conversation will make you rethink everything you thought you knew about sleep, and maybe even help you stop fighting with your pillow.P.S. This is part 2 of our sleep series!

Karly Scott, Manager of Client Services at Logical Position, leads an enterprise-level PPC strategy focused on sustained growth, experimentation, and brand impact. In this episode, she explains how Logical Position supports brands from small startups to those generating over $50 million by managing PPC, Amazon, email, and social media campaigns. The agency's success comes from its strong relationships with partners like Google and Meta, its people-first culture, and its focus on data-driven marketing that adapts to the fast-changing AI-driven landscape. Karly highlights that effective digital marketing requires patience, testing, and diversification across multiple platforms. She shares how one client, Cushion Lab, scaled from $15,000 in ad spend to millions in sales through experimentation and a multichannel strategy. She also urges businesses to invest in creative content and video, emphasizing that consumers now trust YouTube and visual media during research. Her message is clear: if your digital presence isn't optimized across AI, SEO, and paid media, you're missing opportunities to be seen when it matters most. Quotes: “Marketing is so centered in math and data and numbers. I went into that industry thinking one thing and came out very, very different.” “If you're unwilling to take some risks when it comes to digital advertising, you're going to quickly fall behind.” “If you aren't there during the research phase, you sure as heck are not going to be there during the purchasing phase.” Resources: Connect with Karly Scott on LinkedIn Explore Karly Scott's expertise and professional insights

Misinformation is a growing problem, with most Americans worried about the reliability of online information. Dan Nottingham created Mi Credible.ai to help people navigate this landscape by providing a credibility score for statements. The tool uses multiple AI models to objectively analyze sources, offering a numerical score and an explanation so users can assess the accuracy of their content before sharing it. This approach helps reduce bias, promotes informed communication, and gives businesses and individuals a measurable way to maintain trust and credibility online. Mi Credible.ai can be used for business, social, and casual purposes, from validating marketing content to settling debates among friends. Users can input any statement to check its accuracy and receive a clear score, making credibility a key performance indicator. Nottingham envisions a future in which AI tools like this serve as impartial editors, helping people navigate misinformation with confidence. The platform is currently browser-based, with mobile apps in development, and encourages users to try it themselves to see how it can improve communication and decision-making. Quotes: “Everyone is a publisher, but not everyone is an editor. That's where credibility tools come in.” “Credibility shouldn't be a buzzword; it should be a KPI for your business.” “It's not enough to be right—you have to persuade.” Resources: Connect with Dan Nottingham on LinkedIn Credibility starts with you
