Before I tell you a bit about my guest today, allow me a quick plug for my upcoming business book alchemist program. The business book alchemist is a small group program for aspiring renegade authors who want to write a book that becomes part of their life's work. I've hosted this program for the first time last November and led a small group through creating their book outline, message and defining their ideal reader. We are still meeting monthly to hold each other accountable on our writing. And one of them has already submitted a chapter to a multi author book. So if you've always thought that one [00:04:00] day you'll write a book, then maybe the business book alchemist is for you. And that one day is right now. The business book alchemist is for change makers and trailblazers before they are authors. That's why we. call them renegade authors. They really care about the message more than about just being a featured best selling author. It's for first time authors who are looking to write a book that makes a difference. coaches, business, marketing, life, health, and more who want to write a book that becomes part of their life's work, and any other heart centered and service based entrepreneurs who are looking to write an authentic book that reflects their unique voice, experience, and insights. So I'm calling it business book alchemist, but in the new approach to business. So this is not just a how to book to [00:05:00] do something in business, but it really is aligned with this idea of doing business like we're human. Or is aligned with bringing change to business. So those are the kinds of people that I'm looking for, for this program. As you probably know, I've written two self published books about change, marketing like we're human and selling like we're human. And I'll be working on the finishing touches of my third book, business like we're human during the program. I wanted to share all of my learnings with heart centered entrepreneurs and aspiring authors, empowering you to write a book that becomes part of your life's work, because your message needs to be heard. So, if you do have a message that needs to be heard, now is the time to become a Renegade author. And writing a book is kind of like having a baby. There is never the perfect time. But if you do it now, you'll be supported by like minded people [00:06:00] and way beyond the eight weeks of the program. Again, we're still meeting monthly with the members of the previous program. And all you need to do to be part of that monthly ongoing community is Join the humane marketing circle. So join us now for a free info session on October 9th. That's 4 PM UK time.

Otherwise, you can also just send me a message if you have more questions. And yeah, I'm not sure if I'll host a program again next year.

So I'd love to see you on October 9th [00:07:00] for the free info session, and if you can't make it for that time, just send me a message and we'll find a time to talk one on one. All right, back to today's episode. My guest today is Erno Honink. Erno is a sparring and accountability partner for entrepreneurs committed to creating sustainable, positive impact. He explores the nuances of decision making and shares his insight through articles, books. Podcasts, newsletters, and practical tools. With a life mission to reduce social and ecological inequality, he's dedicated to empowering others to make meaningful, impactful choices in their entrepreneurial journeys. Here's what we talked about in today's episode, how aligning decisions with personal values can help automate decision making and reduce mental fatigue, the impact of social media and news [00:08:00] consumption on decision fatigue and mental health. The importance of courage in decision making, especially when aiming to create impactful changes in life and business, how incorporating habits like gratitude and regular check ins can enhance personal growth and communication, how small, consistent changes in decision making can lead to lasting impact, why businesses should go beyond financial success to consider their impact on society and the environment, And finally, Erno's decision book, which helps improve the decision making process by reflecting on the journey and not just the results. So without further ado, let's dive into this conversation between Erno and I. Sarah: Erno it's good to have you on the Humane Marketing Podcast. Welcome. Erno: Thank you, Sarah. It's Sarah: good to be Erno: here. Yeah. Sarah: Yeah. It's good to be with you at a distance. We are one of those few [00:09:00] people who met in real life which is always nice, right? To have this human connection. And that was in in Coal this, this summer, earlier this summer. So I thought. Why not follow up with somebody who's in the same kind of movement talking about inner to outer. And then I looked you up and you're talking about decision making decisions with impact. I'm like, Ooh, yeah, that, that makes for a good conversation. So let's talk about decisions. And I guess we're going to go into habits as well, because that kind of goes together, but let's start with decisions. Like, I, I looked it up. It's something like 35, 000 decisions every day. Is that, is that possible? Like, do you, do you know that if, how that's been measured, but it seems like a lot of decisions every day. Erno: Yeah, I'm not sure what the exact number is. I, what [00:10:00] the thing is if you look at the work of, um, book, what's his name? I forgot his name. Daniel Lieberman. No, that's not the one. Atomic Sarah: Habits. Erno: No, it doesn't really matter what you have. You have what he calls system one and system two parts of your brain. Well, they're not actually parts of your brain, but that's how they respond. And it's, I think it's, it's just, everything is derived from, you know, habits is derived from that idea. That what you want to do is whenever you have a decision to make that most of the decisions that you make are pretty automatic. Like if you count six plus one, you, you know, the answer, right? You know, the answer is seven and it's automatic. You don't have to think about it. Well, you actually do think about it, but you're not. You know, you're not consciously thinking about the topic. And because it's been so ingrained into your brain that you know, you can instantly say the thing. And the [00:11:00] same happens, for example, by putting on clothes on in the morning for most people or you know, brushing your teeth because it's, Stuff that you regularly do at the same time after like, you know, something you did before that, that's related to brushing your teeth or taking a coffee, whatever it is, it's a very regular thing that we do. But in, in, you know, in, in theory, they're all decisions, right? They're all decisions that we make. I'm going to brush my teeth. Teeth now, yes or no. Right. And, but if you think about conscious decisions that we really need to think about, that's really a conscious part that we need to think about. You try to minimize those because it costs a lot of energy of your brain. And our brain already consumes a lot of energy in total of our body consumes the most energy that we do. And we want to try to minimize that, you know, by just automating decisions. And only think about the decisions that [00:12:00] really are difficult or important to us you know, like longer term decisions or you know, things that you are not, you don't know the answer to, you haven't ever seen before, new situations that you're in. So, for example, if you see a line. your automatic decision, even if you have never seen a line, is to run as fast as we can. And what happens in your brain is it shuts down you know, this part in the front of your brain where you regularly, really consciously think because if you need to think about, oh, this is a line, so would he attack me maybe? Is it, what kind of color does he have? How fast is he running? And all this stuff, if that's going to happen in your brain, by the time you stopped thinking and you made a decision, you probably already been you know, attacked by the lion and you have no time left. So all this stuff, you know, even if you haven't been in a situation, then sometimes we exactly know how to respond and you don't really think about it. But there's other situations where you really need to think about it. And [00:13:00] it all comes down to like thousands of decisions a day. And that's why it's important to save energy by creating habits. And the most, you know, difficult part of course, is that we create habits that contribute to the things that we want to accomplish, that the things that we stand for, that underscribes our values and all these things that are important to us, that we really do make automatic decisions that really, you know, support us and what we really want to accomplish. Sarah: Yeah, it sounds like there's two separate or different things. One thing is creating habits for, for the decision fatigue, almost like, you know, the small things, what do I eat for breakfast? I remember hearing Tim Ferriss talk about that back in the days when he wrote the four hour workweek book. And it's kind of like, oh, it's the same thing every day. And that just takes one decision out of, away from your day, you know? Works pretty well [00:14:00] for me. I have my oatmeal every morning and it's just like, I love it. I actually look forward to it. And it's kind of like, Oh yeah, I don't have to think about it. And so the other thing we can then do is also build on habits because I eat my oatmeal. That means that then after I'll have my tea and then after I'll do my yoga. So they all kind of go together. Right? So, so that's one thing and that it's great, but then. What you also talked about is the bigger decisions. And that's really what I want to talk about with you is, is like decisions for impact, right? But they go together because I feel like if we spend or waste our time on all the small little decisions, then we probably don't have the time or the spaciousness to. actually invest and think about the, the bigger decisions that have a bigger impact. So, so let's go there. Like, how can we, how can we know [00:15:00] and identify what truly matters and make decisions from that place? I think that's what it comes down to. Down to us, like, how do we know in the, in the inner development goals? One of the skills is the inner compass, right? So like, how do we go there and make decisions from that in their compass? Erno: Yeah. I, I, and I just want to come back to it because It previously, I was referring to the book, thinking fast, slow, fast and slow. This is by Daniel Kahneman. He passed away last year, earlier this year. But he had, he's done some great research on thinking and decision making. And I think thinking about the larger, more important things to us in life. Um, really you don't, you don't have less time to think about those things by being consumed of smaller things to think about, because in general, I don't think [00:16:00] if it's smaller, you don't think about it, but if you look at the inner compass, it gives you. A so, so what the inner Compass does to me, I, I wanna make this personal 'cause maybe it works differently for you, but if you, if you, if I used Inner Compass, I have like an idea, a vision, it's related to my values of what I want to accomplish in life. What is important to me once are, you know, what's. What's the things that I feel is true or false or important, or, you know something that I have influence on, for example, right? So there's also, in my opinion, there's no real reason to be really busy about things you don't have influence on. And if you know that, if you know what your compass is, is if you know what your true North is, or your North star, then It becomes a lot easier to make decisions because what I do then is [00:17:00] whenever a decision comes to me, for example, if somebody asked me if I want to join this group or this team, or if I want to do this work or I want to work with this client, I can start by looking at my inner compass and that goes pretty fast. Seeing if this really helps me if it supports the compass or it's just a different direction, or it will just pull me away from a compass and everything that aligns with it, that's, you know, that helps me to basically say yes in the, you know, as a starter. And then I can look into deeply. Do I have time for it now? Does it, you know how much work is it? So all the other decisions that come after that, but the, so weeding out most of the decisions. By just looking at my compass, my inner compass, and seeing all the decisions that I have to make or questions that be asked to me or interviews I need to do which don't align with my compass, I can just say easily no to, right? So that [00:18:00] already shifts so many things from my plate that that frees up time. These are not small decisions. They are all big decisions, but they free up time by just making very quickly, okay, does it align with my compass? My values? Yes and no. And the other thing, which doesn't really help have to do a lot with decision making, but or maybe it does because we consume a lot of media every day. So we use social media, we see the news, we watch, we read newspapers, we watch, we listen to a podcast or we watch the news. So we consume a lot of media in general as humans every day with social media, even more than ever, I would say. And also with social media by these algorithms the timelines are a lot influenced, biased. So they are biased with opinions of others that are like us. So people that we kind of trust or people that we [00:19:00] feel have similar opinions to us, we see more of those messages or opinions or whatever coming by. And we kind of get like numb for those things, especially when we see a lot of news that's. Um, negative that's like about war or about floods or droughts, and especially when it's far away. We see so much negative news. So we kind of like become numb for those images. And at the same time we also become like fatigued from those, from that information. It clutters up our brains and. The, the weird thing, of course, is it doesn't have a lot to do with our decisions, but because it's like, it's about, you know, frightening situations, about terrifying situations, like a war, or like you see people in the floods, you see cars flowing away in, in Austria, by a river that's [00:20:00] overflowing. And then our brain tells us there is something really terrifying going on. And it goes like in sort of like, Fight flight mode and makes a decision, what can I do now? And in general, we can't do anything. It's far away. It, we don't have to do anything. There's not a lot that we can do, but it still, it fatigues our brain and that to me doesn't really have to do a lot with decision making, but our brain feels like it needs to make decisions and the, the best way to, you know, make this. less of a burden to you is to avoid news or make the amount of news or media that you consume less. And the ones that you do consume that is related to your inner compass, for example, that's the information that you've, you know, you're really interested in, make that more. So make sure that you get. A wider perspective on the situation so that you have a clearer view on everything and just the negative part, but also the positive part and the, [00:21:00] you know less biased parts so that it all becomes more a really evaluated information flow that you can trust and think, okay, now I can merely make decisions. Can I do something? What can I do? Thank you. And then you can think about what is it that I actually can do. And that, I think also helps you to become more impactful because it will tell you the things you can do. And that feels like I'm making an impact that feels also that you have, you know, less feeling that you're like Not able to do anything about it and just becoming fatigued from information without doing anything about it. So to me, that is like a way of reducing decision making between brackets. Quotes, I would say, but. It's not really, you know, it's just a brain thinking it needs to make decisions. And there's really nothing to decide because you [00:22:00] can't do anything about it right now. So that I would say is going to help you more with reducing fatigue of your brain decision fatigue. Sarah: Yeah. I love that you brought that up with the, with the media. It's, it's true. I didn't think of asking anything about that, but it's so related because it all Spaciousness and that's kind of like my favorite word these days and so we eliminated the small decisions because we created healthy habits. But then you're right. Our brain is still bombarded with all the media stuff. So we need to also block that. That out. So then we just have this like quiet space where we can actually focus on the decisions that, that, yeah, that do have an impact. And, and the other thing you said that the decisions that we actually can control, right? What's in our control and what isn't. And it's [00:23:00] true. I see my, I saw myself scrolling through YouTube with all the floods and, you know, in Eastern Europe and things like that. And it's, well, it's okay to be informed, but it's not okay to then kind of feel, yeah, frozen almost like. What do I do now? Like I, it's, it's almost like you get into this mini depression and feel like everything I do is basically pointless because it's called, it's all going to shits. So, so yeah. Which isn't Erno: true either, right? No, which Sarah: isn't true. It's just like, yeah, exactly. And I remember I, I was Spending a lot of time in the sustainability field and it was like, just so negative, everything was, you know, that was being shared was negative. And, and that's why I then moved to the IDGs, the inner development goals. Cause I'm like, I can't, if we're all burning out because we feel like [00:24:00] nothing can be done and it's all, it's all doomed, then that's not helping anybody. And so decisions for impact to me means. decisions coming from a good place, a healthy place, right? So that's why I think your opinion about, you know, creating, creating barriers around ourselves to keep us sane and healthy and in a good space so that we can make those good decisions is really important. Erno: Yeah, and I think to be clear, I, I, I do believe that we are going to shit. So I do believe that the way that we acting today as humans is just ending our lives as humans on the planet, right? It's not ruining the planet, but the planet will continue to turn for millions of years when we've gone probably even do better without us. And that doesn't mean. That until that time [00:25:00] we can do a lot to improve our lives, right? So if we look, for example, at, you know, the floods and droughts that are getting closer to us, right? We see floods in our closer in Europe, let's say, for example, we see floods that to spaces or places and cities that we've been on holiday and it. Becomes like closer to us. We see, Oh my gosh, I've been there. I've stood on that bridge. I've, I've walked through a town and the river was so quiet and, and, and nice. And now look at it, what's going on. And but this has been going on In countries around, you know, the equator for, for many, many years, like in India, it's plus 50 degrees. It's sometimes unlivable droughts in Africa, Northern Africa for a longer time. And it's all due to the things that we are doing on the planet, like burning fossil fuels. So if if you look at that picture everything that we [00:26:00] know from science, everything that we know that scientists have been telling us for years are true and you know we are just warming up the planet with burning fossil fuels. And right now it doesn't seem that a lot of people think that we need to change this or not. At least the actions don't show it, right? So we, we, we keep supporting fossil fuels. We keep buying cars, we keep buying new stuff and working with plastic. So there's a lot going on that I believe. That will, you know, make this planet unlivable for humans and other animals. Which Sarah: brings me to courage because I think courage is needed for any kind of change making and especially for. You know, decisions with impact. So how can we encourage people to, you know, use more courage when it comes to decision making and, and stand up for their values and worldview? Erno: I think it [00:27:00] has a lot to do with. Creating a perspective of what you can do as an individual. So if you believe that everything that's going on around you is out of your control, you can do anything about it, then you will just be staying and living the way that you do now. You watching a Netflix and you just go to your sports and you just go to your office and do your work that you need to do, but to the, you know, the company that you work and you just think, okay, I'm going to live my life and I'm going to just You know, earn money and just continue the way that I do, because I don't see any way how I can change this. So what we want to do is tell stories. I was going to say paint pictures, but I think telling stories is better. Tell stories, how we as individuals can make changes. And especially in relation to what is. And I'm thinking about the book, Saving [00:28:00] Us by Katherine Hayhoe, and she is a professor in climate and what she's telling in the book and saving us is about, you know, you normally would say saving the planet, but this is about saving the humans. Right. So, and what she's saying is that she's. Sharing stories with groups of people talking about climate, but every time when she is in front of a group, she's translating that topic to the values of those people that she's talking to. So she's looking at the values of the group, the people that she's talking to, sees what is important to them in relationship to the climate, and then shines a light on that part of the topic. So for example, when she's talking about to farmers, she's talking about droughts and talking about having you know, floods about crops that go to waste because there's no, not enough water. And then they understand, yeah, this is really going on. We've been seeing that in our own farm that this is happening right now and, and it, and then they listen to, so what can we do to change this? And then you can give [00:29:00] them some steps to what they can do. On their farm to make changes slowly to overcome and at least change that situation. So to me, it is about a lot about telling stories and making sure it relates to the values of the people. So, because then you can, you know, you don't need a lot of courage to start working on this. You just need the right coach. You just need the courage that fits with your values. And if it's close to your values, it doesn't cost a lot. It just. It's just another step of what you've been doing. It's not like something completely different that you're picking up now. Right. So I think it has to do with making visual. What the small next step is for the person that's sitting across to you, what they can do as a next step. And then coverage is just, you know, it's just a small part of that. Sarah: Yeah. Yeah. And, and, and that kind of brings us to, to marketing because, you know, you're on a podcast called Humane [00:30:00] Marketing. And so people could go, well, what does all of that have to do with marketing? Well, it doesn't. Has a lot to do with marketing because storytelling and marketing are essentially the same thing nowadays. And, and so what humane marketing also stands for is to, yeah, to encourage change makers to talk more about things that, that matter and, you know, the, the values that they stand for and the, the, the world, their worldview. It's all related. And if we bring that back to decision making help me out here. Like the, the decisions to, I think the decisions is, do I stand for something? And do I bring that into my, my work? Marketing that's what I always encourage my clients to, to say, well, make your worldview your niche. So meaning [00:31:00] bring your worldview into your business, into your marketing and, and, and tell these stories. Yeah. That, that also can influence other people, not just to make them buy your stuff, but to make a change, right. That's in the end, that's what we all want. Erno: Yeah. And the scary part, maybe he is, if you, if you bring a story to your world, which your world isn't ready for right now, or is not familiar with. That's, that's a scary view, like making a decision. Do I want to incorporate that in my marketing? What if nobody likes it? So there's a lot of Well, there's the courage, right? Yes. That's the courage. But what you, but what you can do. Is if you, if you make, I like the phrase doing good louder, I forgot who would, who I first heard it from, but doing good louder means, so you, you, [00:32:00] you do something to improve your life, to improve other people's lives, to make like a a better future. And and often it's a very, these are very small steps. There's small things that you do to make a difference. And, and we don't talk about it because we feel it's. It's small, it's like tiny, nobody really cares about that. But a lot of people don't know about this, what they can do. And they're looking for examples. They're looking for how, how do I do this? And so if you talk more in marketing about the things that you already are doing as a company, not as a. Greenwashing thing, but as like real examples of what you're really doing. I think that gives people perspective of what they can do, like real life examples of how they could do this. In their company, in their business, or as a private person, as a consumer, how they can do this. So to me yes, [00:33:00] painting a picture, telling a story to attract clients. Is attract people. I would say even better is a good thing. That's, that's, that's great. And I would say if you. Start talking more about the things that you're already doing that look very tiny and small to you. Um, but other people have never heard about it. They don't, they don't know how to start there. They don't know what to do. Like there was this challenge in the Netherlands, which is buying no new stuff for a year. So it, it started really small with just a couple of people joining the challenge and what it did was bringing people along, because it's something that everybody can do. They can think about the decisions they make about buying stuff, because if something breaks down, you need to buy something new or you, or you see something in you know, in Instagram or Facebook, whatever you see something, you know, you think about buying that. And [00:34:00] every time we do this and you're part of this challenge, you go like, okay, do I really need this? And is there a different thing that I can do? If let's say, okay, I agree. I really need this because I've, I've just broken something. I really need the same thing again, because I need. This stuff in my life. Can I get it secondhand? Can I get it fixed? Right. So then by becoming a part of this challenge, looking at all these decisions, you can make like see small changes, which in the end reduces your consumerism, which has a great impact on, you know trash or plastics or, you know, burning fossil fuels. There's a lot of things that goes into. Consumerism, it's, it's one of the biggest, um, classes of, of, you know, the, the shit that's going on today. I bring it really negative. So yeah, I think it has a lot to do with just being the example living, Like an example, not to be saying, Oh, I'm the best at this, but just showing how it can be done. Sarah: [00:35:00] I like that. And it's, it's true. So many small stories where we think, Oh, well, I've been doing this for a long time. It's obvious. Probably thinking everybody's doing it. And, and yet you find out, no, they never heard of it. I hadn't never heard of the, a challenge like that. And it's a great idea because the minute also you get into community and more than just one person doing it, there's, there's just some different energy to it. And it's, yeah, it's kind of the, the. The, the motivation the exchange of, of motivation that is really encouraging. Erno: And I'm talking about marketing, right? If you, if you look at marketing as an organization, as a company, you can do the same, you can build like a community about around your company or your goals or your vision and do the same. Just, you know, by sharing the stories, helping people to tag along and just do stuff like you do in the group. that do stuff like you do just grows and more people will become [00:36:00] like you because they do the stuff like you do and they like it a lot because they feel like. They are connected. They are a part of this group. And that's what we all as humans, like, we need to be like part of a group of humans that we can feel related to. So if you are an organization or a company yes, please do spend a lot of your energy in marketing and resource in your marketing on building that community, setting an example and showing these examples so that people can follow you and not just to be like a leader as like an ego kind of thing, but be a leader. As in like building a community and the people, you know, have examples how they could change and, and feel a part of this, right? So feel like I'm one of those people who's making a change and it feels good. Sarah: Yeah. It's like, Belonging is probably this, the, the, the word that comes up and that's exactly what we're craving at this time because we, yeah, we just feel so separated and, and we're [00:37:00] basically numbing ourself with. Buying and making all these stupid, tiny decisions that that are, yeah, taking up too much of our time as we're coming full circle in this, in this chat, I would love for you to share, I don't know an example. So you, you shared the challenge, but maybe an example of a personal decision that you've made in recent years. That had a huge impact on, on your life or, or career. Erno: It's of course, a very difficult question. There've been, there've been millions of decisions, right? If you look at like 30, 000 per day or 40, 000 per day, there's been millions of decisions that has made a change for me because I have what I call a decision book and a part of what I, you know, what I use in my, my practice and my coaching practice is if you have a. A larger decision, a tough decision. You really [00:38:00] want to think it through. So the decision book helps you to think it through. It's, it's for free, so you can just download it and use it yourself. But the important part is that you write the stuff down, how you thought about the decision. What decision you made? Why did you make the decision? What influenced it? What else could you have done? So, so everything are in questions in the decision book and the writing down and looking back at, you know, the decision making process. Afterwards, it's so important to improve your decision making process because a lot of people think if you look at the results of the decision, that will help you to improve the process, but that's not true. The process isn't part of it in itself. So you have to decision making process. So you think about, you know, the decision, you think about everything that you couldn't do, what the effects are, and then you make the decision. And then you act. On the decision, but after that, a lot of things can happen in life and can make a lot of changes [00:39:00] to what's going on. And you have no control over that, right? So there's stuff happening outside your control, but it influences your decision. Oh, actually the results of decision, but you don't control it. So, so this would happen. This could happen like a toss of a coin. What would be the result? But by looking back at the decision making process, like after a couple of months. You improve the process by looking, okay, what could I have done differently in that process at that moment? And how would that maybe have impacted my decision? Not the results, but my decision. And I think that's one of the things that I feel is really important to me is by carefully examining which decisions do I need to write down, write out and completely analyze and then look back afterwards to see how I can improve my decision making process. That's one thing. The other part is I, I, I've been mentioning this the last couple of months for a couple of times is [00:40:00] becoming part of the Inner Development Goals Network, especially the Global Partitioners Network. At some point I was asked to join the Global Partition Network. Team who organizes the meetings every month and by becoming a part of that team of how they the way that the team together organizes the events prepare for the events have discussions has taught me so much about. Looking at people about being grateful about space for silence about asking how people are doing during the discussions. Because sometimes if you, if you look in normal business life, normal we don't have time or don't feel the space to really check how people are doing after something we had happened in a discussion, but here it's like in grind in a team and it makes so much of a difference of how The dynamics is [00:41:00] going on in the team and, and how I feel related to these people. And that to me has taught me so much in the last two years that I think this may be, and it's, yeah, the weirdest thing of course, is that sometimes you feel like, because you ask this question, so how the decision has really made an impact and change that made an impact to you. The impact is in fact, really tiny. But the results, if you stack them up, it's huge, but since it's like an everyday process or every week or whatever you don't notice it. It's, it's become like a new normal to you. It's become a new normal, how you respond. For example we do these check ins. And since we do them at every meeting, it becomes a very normal thing to do check ins at meetings. So every time I have other meetings, I try to propose, it doesn't always happen, like do a check in. And what I see then, for example, one of the team members doing, [00:42:00] she's thanking the other people who've done a check in before her and then builds upon that. It's, it's a very different thing. And you could say difficult thing for me to do to thank people and be, you know, thoughtful about what they said. And instead of just thinking about me, just thinking about them and what they said and just, and using that as a bridge to continue. And I'm trying to incorporate that in the way that I now communicate with people to be grateful and to be thankful. Saying thank you for what they do and it's, it's changed the way that I communicate it now so much. And it's, and again, once you do that, it becomes like the new normal. It becomes so normal that you don't see it as a new thing or a new impact thing or like a great decision that you've made and how it changed your life. Because it's just, it's just a tiny thing, but it did change my life. I know that. Now, and I see it [00:43:00] now. Sarah: I love that. Yeah. It's really, it made you become a different person. And I, I think that's also the, that's the power of these decisions. And then the habits that go with it, because what you just described is a habit. Okay. Meeting, which we can begin with a check in. That has become a habit. And so it's become part of who you are. Right. So, so that's, that's really, yeah, that's the outcome or the result. At the same time, I would say it's the impact because man, it's just like. Yeah, you're a different person than you were before. So, yeah, Erno: yeah, definitely. Yeah. It's, but it, you know, if you, if you look at like from a very timeline point of view, you could look at it like it is, or let's say before situation after situation, right? So you have the before, so you didn't know this. And after it's, it's like the new normal. Sarah: Right. Erno: In between that phase, you're, you're constantly thinking about okay, I need to do [00:44:00] the check in with this team and I need to thank the people who come before me even though this group isn't used to it and they may think I'm weird, but I have to do this to get into this habit myself. Sarah: And Erno: at some point it becomes like the normal and it's like, it's like a habit, like you just mentioned. So it's the new situation. And then everything before that is like, okay, this is normal to me. I have no. You know, it doesn't really stand out anymore. And it's, but it's, it's, it has hugely impacted my life, but it's, it's the new normal now. So, so do you think, did it really impact me? Yeah, it did. Sarah: Yeah. I love that. It's, it's, it's. It reminds me of the, you know, the, the little drips on a, on a, on a rock. It's like, well, it's just one tiny drip. Yeah. But over time, well, that can create a huge crater or whatever. So, so yeah, it really is very, very powerful. And it, it, it shows that, that we [00:45:00] can change. So habits usually are kind of like criticized and people say, well, I can't change. I'm just Like that, right? Well, no, you, you can change. And so I guess that's the, that's the encouragement. I, I'd like to leave listeners with today that, yeah, you can make decisions that have a huge impact, probably not the week after, but just like Erno said, two years later, you're a different person. And so yeah, thanks so much for, for giving us all this food for thought, Erno. Please do share again where people can find you and where, where they can find your, your decision book to download. Erno: If you, I think the best and easiest way to connect with me is on LinkedIn. It's just Erno Honig, but you put the link in the show notes and the decision book can be found at ernohonig. com. Just look for decision book there. And you find it and you can just download it, [00:46:00] you can use it as a PDF, I believe, you can use it as a, as a doc, as a document that you can just edit in your, your favorite word editor, or you can use a notion which is also a great tool I like I have a template for that too. Sarah: Very cool. Well, thank you so much. I have one last question. I'm working on a, on a book called business like we're human. And I'm asking my podcast guests. What comes up for you when you hear business, like we're human, what kind of thoughts come to your mind? Erno: The, I think in general what we believe is the way that our economical system works today. That's like definitive, that's the only true economical system that we know, and there's [00:47:00] nothing else. And there's, this is the only right thing, right? So having like a gross national product looking at growth, endless growth also, you know, also in businesses, right? So thinking about every year you need to add 10 percent to your revenue and to your profits and everything. So endless growth it's, It's everywhere. So this, and if you then think about the human part, as humans, we are not growing endlessly. We are, we have a lifetime to grow and then it ends. And what we do in that time is to pass on our knowledge to the next generation. Right. We 12, we try to give them ideas, seeds. I would say, if you look at nature, we give them seeds to build their own Um, garden, their own forest. And I think that looking at that way of business is, is there's not always, we [00:48:00] don't always need to grow. We don't need to always think about making money with our business. We can also think about how we make impact or how we support other people in our neighborhood. Or how we support our parents. And. I think we don't see that as business, but it is a part of our human life. It's about who we are as humans. So to me, I would say humans are closer to nature than to business. And the way that we look at business is just. It's a couple hundred years old, so if it's that young, we should be able to change it to something that is more regenerative, more friendly. It takes more care about well being than about welfare. So to me, business is closely related to economics. And to me, that shouldn't be, business should be more related to [00:49:00] nature. So that's what I think about when you just give me that line. Sarah: Love it. Thank you so much. I might just mention you in the book. Thank you, Sarah. Thank you. Thanks so much for being on the podcast. It's been fascinating. Thank Erno: you. Thank you, Sarah. It was great to be here.

Are you a property manager? Do you hire property managers? Can you answer the question: what is a property manager, and what do they do? In today's episode, property management growth experts Jason and Sarah Hull discuss what a property manager is and what they should be doing in a property management business. You'll Learn [01:14] Million-dollar question: What does a property manager do? [06:25] Siloing information to protect your business [10:26] Hiring specialists instead of people who can “do it all” [12:20] What should a property manager's role be? [16:31] Property managers as client success experts Tweetables “There's a lot of confusion as to the definition of a property manager in the property management industry.” “When your company grows, what we're going to hopefully have you do is shift into specialists, so that you won't have a property manager that just does everything.” “Effectively cloning yourself or duplicating yourself in the business usually means getting 10 people, not one.” “It's not hard to be exceptional in property management.” Resources DoorGrow and Scale Mastermind DoorGrow Academy DoorGrow on YouTube DoorGrowClub DoorGrowLive TalkRoute Referral Link Transcript [00:00:00] Jason: Business owners, we need to stop trying to find people that can do everything. We need to find people that are really good specialists.  [00:00:08] Welcome DoorGrow property managers to the DoorGrow show. If you are a property management entrepreneur that wants to add doors, make a difference, increase revenue, help others, impact lives. And you are interested in growing in business and life. And you're open to doing things a bit differently, then you are a DoorGrow property manager. [00:00:28] DoorGrow Property Managers love the opportunities, daily variety, unique challenges, and freedom that property management brings. Many in real estate think you're crazy for doing it. You think they're crazy for not because you realize that property management is the ultimate high trust gateway to real estate deals, relationships, and residual income. At DoorGrow, we are on a mission to transform property management business owners and their businesses. [00:00:56] We want to transform the industry, eliminate the B. S. build awareness, change perception, expand the market and help the best property management entrepreneurs win. We're your hosts, property management, growth experts, Jason and Sarah Hull, the owners of DoorGrow. Now let's get into the show.  [00:01:13] All right. So one of the things that's come up, we just did a DoorGrow boardroom event. [00:01:18] And one of our clients that was there was like, "I need to hire a property manager." And we're like, "okay." And what we noticed in talking there and going deeper and digging in deeper is that there's a lot of confusion as to the definition of a property manager in the property management industry. [00:01:37] Sarah: Yeah, it's like a catch all.  [00:01:39] Jason: So the challenge is it can mean just about anything.  [00:01:42] Sarah: Yeah. The definition of property manager is: "do anything and everything that the company needs."  [00:01:49] Jason: And so I've noticed this for a while. we've had a lot of clients and they'll say, "Oh, I need another property manager," or "I need to hire a property manager." [00:01:56] "I need to get a property manager." And it always means something different. So like some people think a property manager does everything, and this is the portfolio style property manager. They're like, "they need to go get business." And so they're a BDM, they need to handle and do some of the bookkeeping accounting stuff. [00:02:17] They need to do maintenance coordination. They need to do the leasing. So they're trying to find somebody that's basically an entrepreneur. They can do everything that's probably going to run away and steal half their business. Right. Which happens. It's happened quite a bit. I've seen it. And that's, I think the wrong way to build a property management business, it's the wrong way to hire and build your team. [00:02:36] So let's figure out. What is a property manager? What is it?  [00:02:41] Sarah: Love it.  [00:02:41] Jason: What are your thoughts?  [00:02:42] Sarah: Well, so I think that there's an important distinction, especially when it comes to the size of your company. So in the beginning, When it's just you do everything. It's all you, you, and then you some more. [00:02:58] And I think this is why then when they go to hire a property manager, they're like, "Oh, well I did everything and I want to replace myself. So I need a property manager to replace myself and then they're going to do everything because I did everything." So in the beginning. When you are in the day to day and it's just you and you haven't built a team yet and you're functioning as the property manager because you're in the day to day and the tactical work, yes, you are technically a property manager. [00:03:26] And then when your company grows, what we're going to hopefully have you do is shift into specialists. so that you won't have a property manager that just does everything. You'll have people who are really good at the one thing that they do and will be able to then segment the business and split that out into multiple roles instead of just having a property manager that does everything. [00:03:56] Everything. Yeah. So I created a Facebook post, cause  [00:04:00] There was some heat on that post. Well, I like this. I don't know if you read the comments.  [00:04:03] Jason: I like to stir the pot a little bit. For those that are watching this on video, this is what it looks like, right? So join our Facebook group, go to doorgrowclub. com, get in there. So I said, if the property manager role on your team is not your maintenance coordinator, operator, bookkeeper, leasing agent, then what is their role? And so people are like "define operator, like what's an operator?" So then I was defining what an operator was, but Michelle Miller, shout out to Michelle, she commented. She said, "in other words, if they aren't doing everything, what are they doing?" Right. Brian Nelson said "delegator." And I like that. That's I think  [00:04:39] Sarah: I don't like  [00:04:40] Jason: that.  [00:04:40] I like the idea that they are not the person that's doing all this stuff. Maybe they're orchestrating, maybe that's what they're doing. [00:04:47] They're maintaining the relationship with the owner. Sean Foster, he says "PM's number 1 job is to be the middleman between the owner and the tenant advising and the correct path of the most profitable investment." [00:04:56] And "but that one responsibility branches off into another 20, doesn't it?" [00:05:00] And then, "depends on the systems." There's a little dialogue going back and forth there. So if you do property management, you manage the property. And to manage the property, you're doing leasing, maintenance, inspections, all this stuff. But that doesn't mean that the property manager in your business is doing all this stuff or should be. [00:05:17] Usually you don't want somebody that's a jack of all trades and a master of none trying to do stuff. And if they're actually good at everything, they'll probably just go start their own business. And I think that's the other challenges that we often mistakenly fall into this clone myth. And this was what was going on with our client at the DoorGrow boardroom event. [00:05:35] He thought, he's like, well, "I was a property manager at another company for a while. Now, I have my own business and I'm doing all everything and I need to go hire a property manager and I was doing everything at that company. I'm doing everything in my own company. Now, I need to go find somebody else to do everything." [00:05:50] And when we finally identified this. I call it the clone myth. We think, "I just need to go find somebody just like me. I need to clone myself." Effectively cloning yourself or duplicating yourself in the business usually means getting 10 people, not one. Like 10 different hats, 10 different specialists in the business. [00:06:07] And so just want to address the clone myth real quick. So I think we want to find a way, I think in the industry, it might make sense to eliminate the term property manager. If they're not actually the one doing all of the little pieces, unless you're portfolio style. So what are your thoughts on that? [00:06:25] Sarah: Well, I think the other thing too, that I want to bring up about him at the boardroom event is he's like, "I need a property manager and they're going to do everything. And I do everything. And I also did everything at my other company when I worked for them as a property manager. So I need one. How do I make sure that they don't just steal my business and steal my clients and walk away though, because they're going to be doing everything? [00:06:48] Jason: Yeah.  [00:06:48] Sarah: And that's a really good reason to not have them doing everything.  [00:06:52] Jason: Most business owners eventually figure out you need to silo information. So for example, when I ran a web design agency, I had an intranet where all the information was stored and I had how I sold, how I found clients, like all this was built out in the intranet. [00:07:07] All the sales related stuff. And then I had all of how we build the websites, how we put them together, all this kind of stuff. And I would hire web designers to build the websites and to do work and they would get access to the intranet. They would read the sales stuff and then figure out how to get their own clients and then they would quit. [00:07:25] I kept having them leave and they're like, "Oh, well, I've got so much business. I don't have time to do your projects now." And I was like, "what?" it happened over and over again. So I was like, "okay, something's going on here." So then I realized I needed to segment the information because the stuff that I figured out was pretty effective and pretty valuable. [00:07:40] Sarah: And essentially you were paying them to train them to then run their own business and not work for you anymore.  [00:07:47] Jason: What a deal. So, okay. Yeah. So then I started siloing that information. And so I think I think I shared a TikTok or a reel or something with you where a guy was talking about siloing the information and he was talking about sales and manufacturing and a product business. [00:08:02] And if they know where to source all the manufacturing stuff and they know how to acquire business, they don't need you anymore. So he had to segregate that information. I was like, that's the same thing. You need to segregate knowledge in your business. Your goal is to hire specialists on the team, not generalists that can wear multiple hats. [00:08:22] You're the business owner. You have to wear every hat in the business that is not currently worn by somebody or is not being done properly. You have to step in. It all falls on you. That's the job of the CEO, right? You have to do it. If you have a good operator, then they step in and some of that stuff, too. [00:08:40] You have to do stuff that's uncomfortable.  [00:08:43] Sarah: Well, let's just pause for a moment. Your operator is not going to do your day to day stuff in property management.  [00:08:47] Jason: They shouldn't do your day to day stuff. It sounded like. A lot of people get confused.  [00:08:50] Sarah: I know what you were trying to say, but people are going to hear that and go, "Oh yeah. And then my operator is going to do everything."  [00:08:55] Jason: I just wanted to include you. I didn't want to say you don't do the hard stuff too.  [00:08:59] Sarah: I do the hard stuff when I have to.  [00:09:01] Jason: Yeah.  [00:09:01] Sarah: Until we can hire somebody else to do it. Because I hate doing it. I hate certain parts though, then we hire somebody and they do it much better. [00:09:11] Jason: Yeah. So I think it might make sense unless you're portfolio style, which I'm not a real big fan of. I think there's a lot of downsides to portfolio style management. I think it's really rare that people are good at everything. And so I think it's a lot more effective to get somebody that's a really great maintenance coordinator that can handle maintenance for probably thousands of units, right? [00:09:32] If they really know their stuff and have the right systems and tools and you can take that off of your property manager's plates. You need probably accounting or bookkeeping or a team that helps with that kind of stuff. There's vendors that can help with some of those pieces, especially if you don't enjoy, or aren't good at that piece, there's a lot of available resources, but if you get specialists that are really good, they will surpass your ability in that particular category. [00:10:00] Sarah is much better running the planning system that we have DoorGrow OS, running the operations of the business than me, I just like, when I was doing it between having operators I just stopped planning. I didn't want to do the meetings. It was, "anybody stuck? Let's move on. And now it's meticulous and it's detail and we're moving forward. [00:10:19] And everything's focused and we're hitting all our goals and we're making progress. Right? Because I have a good operator. So I think the business owners, we need to stop trying to find people that can do everything. We need to find people that are really good at specialists. So, I met with this entrepreneur a while back named Joe Abraham. [00:10:39] He gave this cool Ted talk that I liked and I checked out his book and I took his online quiz and he has a book called entrepreneurial DNA and he created this score similar to an assessment like this, but it's BOSI. B O S I. And it talks about the four different types of entrepreneurs, which are builders, opportunists, innovators, and specialists. [00:11:01] And you need to figure out what you are, the book talks about, and then build the right team around you. So, historically, I was more of a specialist, which means I'm dedicated my craft for over a decade to coaching and supporting property managers, right? And like figuring out how to grow businesses and then I'm an innovator. [00:11:17] I like to take in lots of ideas and formulate new ideas and create stuff and that sort of thing. So more of a specialist, innovator and specialist, and most of the coaches and mentors I've hired have been builders. Builder, innovators, stuff like that opportunists are always looking for the next way to make money or the next vehicle or this sort of thing. [00:11:38] Think like Ray Kroc, who took the McDonald's brothers', intellectual property, because they were innovators and specialist, and he blew it up and he was a builder and an opportunist so, opportunists make great salespeople. For example, builders make good CEOs. And so I wanted to be a better CEO. [00:11:56] And so I've worked with a lot of coaches to become more and more of a builder to develop that skill set. And I'm getting better. Better and better. So, so I think we need to as entrepreneurs figure out what are our strengths and then what are we lacking? If you need to get around maybe coaches that can help you with with some of the gaps that you have in your own personality or your own knowledge base, then that can help you get to the next level. [00:12:20] All right, so I think if we could eliminate the property manager term from those that are not portfolio style, then what would a property manager that people typically think is a property manager do if they're not the maintenance coordinator, they're not all these things What do you think?  [00:12:34] Sarah: Yeah, I think you can still call them a property manager. [00:12:37] I'm not against the term like you're like, "eliminate! Anti property manager term and industry!" I just don't think that's going to happen Okay. I do think though once your business grows and gets large enough you can have one person or team to do the maintenance coordination, and then that piece is handled by the maintenance team. [00:12:58] Then you can offload the leasing part, right? They're going through, maybe doing showings if you still do those, or at least going through applications and moving people along doing the move ins. Dealing with move outs and starting that whole process, kicking that off. You might have a leasing person, or a leasing team, and then the accounting piece, like your property manager probably should not be doing accounting. [00:13:20] You should have somebody who is really good at accounting to do the accounting. And if that means you need to have a service, do it for you. That's fine. Just make sure that they're a really good reputable service. And there's someone that can hopefully like triple tie out your books and make sure everything is correct. [00:13:36] And then you, here's the big thing, you still have to monitor it. Don't just hand it off and say, here, please go do this thing. And then just sit back and never look at it and hope that it's right. Because I've seen that a lot where people go, Oh, like I haven't done the bookkeeping. I have somebody else do it. [00:13:52] And then they start investigating because there's a one little issue and they start to pull the thread. And it's like, when you pull the thread of the sweater and it just all unravels. Okay, so don't do that. Don't do that. But then your property manager can be more like the person that deals with the relationships of between like clients and tenants. [00:14:13] Right. So we're bridging a gap.  [00:14:15] Jason: So then technically they're more of a relationship manager, right. They're managing relationships. I think a big gap that we don't see a lot of in the property management industry, that's super common in every other industry is the category of client success. And the category of client success, their whole goal is to retain customers to keep customers, make sure that they're happy. [00:14:38] And so I think that's the role that some people might say, "oh, that's the property manager" is they need somebody that's just focused on client success, loves on the clients, takes care of the clients, makes them feel valued. Maybe meets with them annually to make sure that everything's looking good financially. [00:14:53] Sarah: Portfolio review calls.  [00:14:55] Jason: Portfolio reviews. [00:14:56] Sarah: I love those. I will harp about that all day long. If you're not doing them, do them.  [00:15:00] Jason: Yeah. So, client success in a lot of industries. I've heard some of our coaches and mentors describe as your other sales team. Right. You've got those that sell people in, like your business development, your BDs, your business development managers, your BDMs that bring clients into the business, but then they are not responsible for retaining the clients. [00:15:22] And you think you retain clients just by doing maintenance coordination and just by doing leasing, but these things don't really develop or solidify or build the relationship. If you screw those things up, then you're bound to probably lose clients. And so that's the bare minimum.  [00:15:36] Sarah: No one is going, "Oh my God. This leasing team is so amazing. I'm never going to leave." [00:15:41] Jason: Right.  [00:15:41] Sarah: They just expect the leasing to be good because it's what they signed up for when they hired a property manager. Right? They're not going to go, "Oh my God, I can't believe they got this maintenance thing done so so fast. And it was done in two hours and it was amazing. I'm never going to leave." [00:15:57] Jason: So Gallup organization wrote this book called first break all the rules. And then it has this customer satisfaction pyramid. And at the lowest level, there's the lowest two levels are availability and accuracy. So these are the two things that if you're always available and you're always accurate in what you say you're going to do and you do it, people just don't even notice. And so it's not hard to be exceptional in property management. If you do that, it's expected and demanded.  [00:16:24] Sarah: So this is like all the tactical stuff that we do.  [00:16:27] Jason: Yeah.  [00:16:27] Sarah: It falls into this.  [00:16:29] Jason: Yeah.  [00:16:29] Sarah: It's just expected.  [00:16:31] Jason: So the next level, if you really want to have great client, customer service and great client interactions is partnership and then advice. [00:16:40] And this is where I think a property manager can really add value. This is where they are really a client success role where they're retaining clients. They're improving the relationship and the value that people see in the relationship and in the longevity of staying a client of your particular business, when there's plenty of others that could do it, they can manage their property. [00:17:00] You have team members that are managing the relationship and focusing on client success. So maybe there should be some client success managers in property management and less property managers. As far as terms go.  [00:17:13] Sarah: He's really trying to get rid of that term.  [00:17:15] Jason: I don't know. It's just, it's so ambiguous. [00:17:17] Sarah: That's why. So when we were creating R docs, like all of the job descriptions for different roles, he's like, "I want there to be an R doc for every role in property management business." And I said, "okay, I can create it." Here's the problem. The problem is that if I create one for an assistant, it's going to be different from company to company. If I create one for a property manager, there's going to be some similarities, but there's always going to be things that are different from company to company. So there are great templates, right? And it's they're, it's amazing. And then you just delete the things you don't need and add anything you do need from there. There's nothing that's uniform. There's so much that's different from business to business. We all do the same thing. We're all property management entrepreneurs, but the way the ins and outs, the inner workings of our business, there's a million different ways to do it.  [00:18:10] Jason: We did define those Rdocs though. [00:18:12] We have Rdocs for each of the major roles. I think yeah, I think having recognizing that. You need a client success person to maintain the relationship. You need a maintenance coordinator. You need if all these things are segregated and you get really great specialists in each of these areas, then yeah, you're going to have a much stronger lifetime value of your client. [00:18:33] You're going to make a lot more money. So I think that's important. Anything else we should talk about related to property manager?  [00:18:39] Sarah: I think that covers it.  [00:18:40] Jason: All right. So figure out and I'm curious, go ahead and find my post in the DoorGrow club group, or go post or comment in the DoorGrow club community. [00:18:51] I'd be curious to hear your thoughts. What do you feel a property manager is if you don't do portfolio style? What are your property managers doing? How do you define that role? And are they really managing properties? Are they really managing people? Are they really customer success? Are they really supporting and taking care of owners? [00:19:08] Or do you think they're taking care of tenants and like maintaining a relationship there? So, all right, I think that's our interesting conversation for the day for the DoorGrow show and do you want to give them a call to action? That's a good call to action for the end of the show here? [00:19:23] Sarah: Oh, well, we have a few events coming up. So go and check out our events that we have coming up. Don't miss DoorGrow. It's going to be a big one. [00:19:31] This is like our big conference. We do it once a year. It's here in Round Rock, Texas on it's a Friday and Saturday, May 17th and 18th. And our theme this year is creating opportunity from uncertainty. So we have a lot of great topics, a lot of great speakers lined up for you guys. And I've got something special in the works that I haven't really released yet, but It's gonna be really cool because we've never done anything quite like that before  [00:19:57] Jason: Yeah, all right.

All right, let me tell you a little bit about Lou and from his bio, you will kind of immediately kind of grasp his sense of humor. If Don Vito Corleone, Marty Scorsese and Jerry Seinfeld got together to make an AI baby, you might end up with Lou Bortone. Lu is known as the Video Godfather and is conciliare to some of the brightest names in digital marketing. [00:04:00] He's a video marketing expert, an author, speaker, and host of the Godfather podcast. Prior to becoming a video printer, Lu spent more than 20 years in the television business before being run out of. Hollywood. Lou is also a father to twins, a rescuer of pugs, and an expert at Italian curses. I'll always remember meeting Lou in real life back in, I think it was 2017, when he picked me up in a Red Beetle or something. Like that at this tiny train station in Camucho Cortona and, and that's in Tuscany and then drove us up the hill. And I could tell he had no experience with stick driving to our retreat house for the week. And these in person meetings are really just so special in this online world, aren't they? So that's why I went back to Lou for this episode [00:05:00] around video. So in this conversation with Lou, we addressed the following talking points, how Lou got started with video and has seen it evolve into a tool for humane and authentic connection, the core principles of creating video content that resonates on a human level, how authenticity builds trust. And a loyal audience, tools for video creation, including AI tools, future trends and actionable tips for solopreneurs to get started or to get better with video and so much more. So let's dive into this conversation with Lou Bortone. Hey Lou, so glad to see you again and get a chance to talk shop with you about video. And of course, in the off recording, we talked about Sicily because we have a common love for everything Italy, right? Lou Bortone: Exactly. Yeah. And you're one of the [00:06:00] online folks that I've actually met in real life. So that's right. Sarah: Yeah. Which is always, you know, it's such an exception. And so it's yeah. Something special. I, I was part of your, what do you call it? Mastermind Lou Bortone: or Tuscany and yeah, and we had the few years of the little interruption of the pandemic and all that, but hopefully that's all behind us. Yeah. Sarah: Yeah. That was amazing. Loved it. Cool. So I have you today to talk about video and we were just, Discussing, well, maybe we're going to call it video like we're human or YouTube, like we're human or something like that. And then you share it that you just kind of focus a lot on the trust and authenticity. And so we'll definitely get into that. So really looking forward to it. Why don't you start by sharing how you got. Into video how you you know, you're calling yourself the godfather of video, tell Lou Bortone: us Yeah. [00:07:00] The long and circuitous route too. And you know, it's funny 'cause I think people call me that because they know of my love of Italy and Sicily and the Godfather, but all really, because I've been doing it for a really long time. So I was in the television business for many years in Los Angeles and I think it was probably around. 2000 on 1998 that I really got online and started to do things online. And when our twins were born, we decided, well, let's leave, you know, Hollywood and La La Land and go some, go back to family and in Boston. And that's kind of when I started doing the online video stuff which was fun because the way I discovered YouTube is that I was helping some people. Do a sketch comedy show for like a local cable access. And we started to put the videos on YouTube and really get a lot of attention there. We realized, Oh, this, you know, we were kind of onto something. So I was on from a very early, you know, back in 2005 when YouTube started and I've been doing online video ever since. And I love it because [00:08:00] I'm an introvert and I don't have to be in person necessarily with people. And even though I don't love being on camera for me, it's a lot easier than in person networking. And I just love the fact that we can do this and sort of have our own TV station, our own podcast. I mean, 10, 20 years ago, this would have been impossible. So Sarah: yeah, that's how I got here. That's insane. It's like mind blowing that, you know, 2005, that it really seems like ages and ages, but that's Lou Bortone: when it came out. So I guess that's what, 18 years. Oh my gosh. I feel so old. Sarah: It really is a long time ago and of course, you know, it went through phases of ups and downs and, and it seems like right now it really is kind of like coming back and, and I want to know from you, why do you think that it has this comeback now? What, Lou Bortone: what, what? It's interesting. And it's the same with, you know, remember podcasting sort of cooled off [00:09:00] for a while and now it's harder than ever. I think part of it is that You know, when, when I was growing up, when we were growing up, you know, there were just a few TV stations and a few options. And now with YouTube and podcasts and streaming, you know, we've got access to, to the, to basically a worldwide audience every time we turn on our computer or our PC. Put our phone on. So I think that's part of it. It's just the accessibility and also the fact that folks who maybe are a little younger than us grew up with. They never didn't. You know, they always had Internet. They always had you do. They always had streaming and all this kind of stuff. So for them. A screen is a screen is a screen, they don't care if it's TV, they don't care if it's you know, cable, they don't care if it's YouTube, you know, whatever they're watching, they can watch anything, anytime, and that's why, you know, another crazy statistic is that YouTube has more viewers than all the U. S. TV networks, all the cable networks, all the streaming services, so when you think of TV, you don't usually think of YouTube, but [00:10:00] YouTube is TV, and TV is YouTube. Sarah: I mean, if we think of our kids, right, that's, that's all they're watching. They're not watching TV. It's Lou Bortone: definitely the YouTube. Multi screens. You know, they're, they're watching YouTube on a, on a traditional television screen, but they're on Twitter or X at the same time with their friends. And I don't know how they do it. I can barely manage one screen. Yeah. Sarah: Yeah. I also feel that. You know, we were also kind of part of the blogging era. And, and so I feel like, you know, Google has changed their algorithm again. And people are like, well, people don't really read blogs anymore. And we can't get any traction with SEO. Now that the market is getting flooded with all the AI content. So maybe it's also, do you think it's also because of that? People are like, well, at least that. That's what it was for me. I'm like, I got to pay attention to Lou Bortone: YouTube. Absolutely. And then the other thing with business owners, I mean, you know, we always read video is the way to [00:11:00] get the most amount of information in the shortest amount of time. So if we're all multitasking, we're all really over scheduled, we're all really busy. Oftentimes it's like, I can't sit down and read a newspaper. But what's that? You know, it's, I have to, you know, go to YouTube and find this quick answer. I have to go to see this thing on Tik TOK or, you know, so it's really just a great way to get access to any information anywhere in the world. Sarah: Yeah. Yeah, exactly. It's, it's, it's, I love it, especially when it's timestamped. So it's like, Oh, I don't even have to watch the whole thing. It's just like, yeah, exactly. So, so yeah. Lou Bortone: So I think now the thing is that. The, the consumer, the viewer, it has more control than ever. Cause like I said, when we were at least in the U S when we were growing up, it's like you had three TV networks and, and they controlled everything. They controlled what you saw, what you heard. And now it's kind of like, well, the consumer can go anywhere they want and see anything they want. So they're completely in control now. Sarah: So that kind [00:12:00] of probably if someone has never done any video kind of sounds also intimidating because it's like, wow, like there's this giant audience out there. Okay. You already mentioned as an introvert, sometimes YouTube is actually probably easier than the networking thing, but maybe it also feels like, well. What am I going to share that hasn't already been said out there? Yeah. So what would you say to that Lou Bortone: question? I think, you know, everybody has their unique spin and everybody has their own, you know Perspective. So it's like you have something to offer. A lot of times if I'm working with my clients or students, they feel like, well, you know, like you said, well, you know, what can I say that hasn't already been said? And I tell them, look, you know, you have a message. You have a unique message. You have a unique way of doing things and your Passion to get that message out to the world has to be stronger than your fear of being on camera. Because again, you know, the other thing too is now that we're all able to be on camera, we're not walking the red carpet at the Oscars. We're just putting on a podcast or a YouTube channel [00:13:00] and showing up and trying to be authentic. Sarah: Right. Yeah. So let's talk a little bit about this trust building and authenticity, like what are some key points here that maybe a story I can tell is like, I remember when I put up my first video and I just seen them all because I cleaned up my YouTube channel and I'm like, Oh my God, this is terrible. But I remember like really sweating it like, Oh my God, I have to prepare everything. Yeah. So. Like, do we really need to have this perfect video or how much of it can we just wing and really be just human and Lou Bortone: authentic? I think you can wing 80 percent of it, probably. I mean, I often make the distinction between quick videos and keeper videos. It's like, okay, a keeper video, your homepage video on your website, you know, you want to, you don't want to be in your pajamas, probably. If it's an important video that's going to have shelf life, like your homepage [00:14:00] video, or if you're selling, you know, a thousand dollar coaching program, you don't, you know, you want to look professional. So those keeper videos, you probably want to spend more time and effort on, but if it's, you know, quick tips, I mean, oftentimes I just think of something and then just go to YouTube and share it. So quick tips or Facebook lives or any kind of live video, it's really more about, you know, just showing up. And sharing your message and being authentic. And a lot of times people think video is about the technology. And what I try to sort of, you know, reshape that or respin it as, no, it's really about connection and relationships and engagement. It doesn't matter what technology we're using. It just matters that we're connecting and being authentic and sharing ourselves. Hmm. Sarah: I remember we, we did the workshop together or something about video for introverts back in the days. And, and I remember we did kind of have one module on, on on technology. And I'm thinking maybe that actually lost [00:15:00] a bit of importance now that. You know, we're so used to these shorts on YouTube and even famous people just kind of like filming themselves. You think it has changed maybe also over time? Yeah. And Lou Bortone: I think that the pandemics accelerated it really quickly because, you know, and basically in, you know, a day we all had to move to zoom and we had to move our events to zoom and we had to move everything online. So I think that just accelerated it. And, you know, it was almost like. You know, well, I don't have a choice. I have to be on camera because that's the only way I can connect with my audience right now, right? Yeah. And I think the other thing was now people realize, Oh, this is, you know, this isn't that scary. And this isn't that difficult technically. And we always hear about no like and trust. And I think people finally realized like, wow, this is a great way to build no like and trust. Sarah: Yeah, it's so true. I'm always surprised that people are watching whole episodes, you know, that I put [00:16:00] on the podcast as well, but no, people actually watched the YouTube version of it as well. And probably it's because that know, like, and trust, right? Lou Bortone: Yeah, definitely. The connection, the ability to watch it on the go, cause people are watching on their phones. And I did, you know, I've, I've done podcasting. Off and on, but the reason that I finally committed to doing a podcast was I saw a statistic that YouTube was now the number one source for podcasts, more than Apple, more than Google, more than Amazon people are going to YouTube for podcasts and whether that's just. Kind of listening to it when, you know, with a slide on the screen or having an actual interview or seeing the person on screen, either way there, it's become, you know, kind of the go to place to see and hear podcasts. Sarah: Yeah, that's interesting. I did see a difference between just having that slide and the moving, you know, lines which I did before. So I didn't have the video portion of [00:17:00] it. And now with, with the actual faces, like there is more engagement or there is more views because yeah, obviously it's more interesting to, to see two people talking than just a line. Yeah. Lou Bortone: Yeah. And that's the other thing that's been interesting too is now with all the AI stuff. It's like, I think there's going to be not really a backlash with AI, but more of a need for like, okay, I don't want to see a robotic, you know, synthesized video. I mean, yeah, I can create an AI version of myself. It's like, hi, I'm Lou, you know, and recreate my voice, but it's still not you, you know, it's still not the real person. Sarah: Yeah. And, and I really feel like that's why I like the really human and authentic videos the best, where you see some people, you know, they have like this fancy background and their logo is up there and their book is up there. I'm like, I get that from a marketing perspective, but. [00:18:00] It doesn't feel real. It feels like if I would see you on the street, I probably wouldn't recognize you because you're wearing so much makeup and I don't, yeah, I don't really recognize you. So for me, it's really that real humanness that comes across. Yeah, Lou Bortone: and that's why I like, you know, I don't do as much live video as I should, but I kind of call it like, oh, a live video is to come as you are party, you know, just show up and, and, you know, be yourself and don't worry that the dogs are barking in the background because that's the way it works, you know, like it's, there's going to be distractions, there's going to be craziness going on in the background, but that just makes it more real. Sarah: Talking about that. I just watched, remember that BBC interview where the walks in and then the baby rolls in and I just watched that Lou Bortone: again. Sometimes those are viral moments. Like, you know, the wife's son doing, trying to do a professional interview and the guy walks by. [00:19:00] You know, husband walks behind her in his boxer shorts, you know, it's like, we're trying to do video here, people. Sarah: And what, what I didn't remember is that that was in 2017. So way pre COVID. So that's why it was like super shocking. You know, back then we were all still like, Ooh, you know, has to be super professional. So I feel like a lot has changed since the pandemic. Yeah. And again, Lou Bortone: You have to find that balance because like I kid like you don't want to look like a hostage video. I mean, you don't want to have really terrible lighting and yeah, that it may be authentic, but it's still not easy to watch like if the lighting is really bad or if the audio is bad. So you have to find that balance between like, look, I have to, you know, look relatively professional, but I don't have to be so polished that I'm on doing an interview on CNN or something. Sarah: Exactly. Yeah, it's, it's true. It's that balance that you're still human and creating trust. But without looking [00:20:00] like, yeah, you're just going on CNN. So we talked a little bit about AI what I just recently started using is this Tool called Clip, Opus Clip or something. Oh yeah. Yes. Opus Clip. And it lets you create these little shorts from longer videos. Right. And, and I love that because it's repurposing existing content. And so, yeah, do you know any other great AI tools Lou Bortone: that people are using? I did a series on some AI tools and Opus Clip was one of them, which is great because if you're going to create content. You might as well get as much mileage out of it as possible. So if you're doing a podcast and you wanted to do clips from the podcast, or you want to do 60 second segments, Opus clip is great for that. Pictory. ai is really good because you can, you know, make your videos more professional and edit them and add, you know, B roll and background footage. And the one that I use probably every single day is descript. com. And the reason [00:21:00] I like that is because for people who are not You know, video editors, you can edit the text and all those changes are made, you know, you're basically editing a Word document and then the changes transfer the video. So I've been using that for pod, you know, to produce podcasts and really every kind of video because it's, it's really faster and you can look more professional and more quickly. Yeah, Sarah: and I love the fact that you just highlight all the ums and take them Lou Bortone: all out. Yeah, I had no idea how many times I used the words and until I found a descriptor like, oh, I can take out all the filler words with one click. And suddenly I sound smarter than I am. And I don't think that damages any of the authenticity or makes it any less real. It's just that like, oh, this is, it's going to be a little bit easier to look more professional without having to go through all kinds of crazy editing and stuff. Yeah. Yeah. Sarah: Yeah, that's true. It doesn't feel like all of a sudden you sound like a robot. You just. I feel like, yeah, you sound [00:22:00] smarter because you're not constantly looking for words or, or, yeah, saying Lou Bortone: them that. And some of it's getting like, it's a little bit weird because there's a feature in Descript where if I'm looking at the screen, it will put your eyes back up to where the camera is. Oh, I haven't Sarah: seen that. Lou Bortone: Ooh, that's kind of, you know, it's kind of interesting. It's a little creepy, but it works pretty well. But again, it's about striking that balance. Like I could do videos where I say, you know, you sort of insert the name, like you do one video, hello. So, you know, it's like, well, obviously that's, you know automated. So you don't want to do so much automation that it's not, you know real anymore. Sarah: Right. Yeah. I guess that's a question that you get often is like, well, where should your eyes be when you're doing either self recorded videos or chats like this one? For example, me right now, I'm looking at the camera. I'm not looking at you, which I always feel like, oh, what a Lou Bortone: shame. You got [00:23:00] to sort of train your eyes. I'm like, Oh, you know, my mom said you have to look people in the eye. Exactly. Great, but the camera, the camera's eye is up here, so I cheat because I have like a little extra monitor up where the camera is, but if I was looking at the screen, it would be, it would feel like I wasn't connecting with you and I wasn't being as authentic because I'm not, you want to try to, the camera is the the other person's eyes. So that's the tricky part. Sarah: Yeah, yeah. What I do is this, because I'm recording on zoom, so I just make the screen of zoom very small and just shove it right under the camera. Lou Bortone: I know. So those kind of tricks of just, you know, try to look at the camera try to have, you know, adequate lighting But again, it's, you know, it doesn't take much. I, I, I like to have a setup where I can just say, okay, my camera is set up, my background's okay, my lights work, and I want to just be able to go. I don't want to have to spend 20 minutes setting up a video every time I do a video. Sarah: Yeah, exactly. It becomes kind of like a nuisance if you're, it feels like, Oh, [00:24:00] I have to do all this setting up. What about what about in terms of the, the body placement? Because one thing I noticed is when I put the things on Tik TOK compared to everybody else, my face was like, Oh God, this is like, this is no Lou Bortone: good. Consider where the person's watching from, and a lot of people are watching on their phone, especially if it's a vertical video. So oftentimes if I'm doing a webinar and I'm sharing slides that are landscape, I realized, well, I can't put this on TikTok or Instagram Reels because it's going to squish it. But like, again, using software like Descript, we can take a video like this and put, you know, the people, Vertically so that it still works. So what I do see a lot, and it's funny cause I did another video about this, is it just, people don't have a very good sense of the spatial awareness. Like there'll be way down here, like, hello. And the trick that I, I heard that works is that, you know, think in terms of like, you don't want any more headroom than you [00:25:00] could fit a golf ball on the top of your head. So. You know, you don't want to be too close. You don't want to be too, too far away. Sarah: So what about here? Like Lou Bortone: it's kind of like, I think, you know, we were used to seeing that from news anchors and TV. It's usually like, you know, the, the typical shot is head and shoulders kind of shot, but again you know, if there are people doing videos who are yoga instructors or something like that, they got to go way back and be No, I think it's really just a matter of being aware of where you are in the camera. Oftentimes we'll see on zoom maybe somebody's on a laptop and they're looking up and you're looking up their nose. It's like, that's no fun. You know, just try to. Have a straight on you know, and use the photography rule of thirds where your eyes should be on the top third of the line. And if you've got graphics, those should be on the lower third, which is why they call lower thirds. So it's just having a sort of a spatial awareness of where you are, what's going on on screen. Sarah: Right. Yeah. [00:26:00] Yeah. I think a lot of it also comes back to confidence and just doing it a few times and not caring if it doesn't look good and just keep doing Lou Bortone: it, right? Yeah. So it's funny when we do, like we did the video for introverts thing a few years ago, but when we do when I do these challenges, I say, you know I do my first video in the car after I just came from the gym. So it's like, okay, this is the worst I'm going to look. Okay. I'm going to, I'm going to set the bar really low so it can only get better. And you know, I'm in the car, the lighting's bad, I'm sweaty, but okay, I'm going to start there and then work my way towards better videos as I go. Sarah: Right. Yeah, that's a, that's a good way of putting it. And I remember those videos after kickboxing, right? Yeah, exactly. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. I don't know if I would bear that, but yeah. . Lou Bortone: Well, and I think, you know women have a harder time because of the expectations. Like, oh, you know, my hair has to look good and I have to be wearing. Right, whatever. But I think people are less concerned [00:27:00] about that now than they used to be. Sarah: I think so too. And it's so refreshing. Lou Bortone: Yeah. Cause we just show up on zoom and it's like, look, you know I just came back from the gym or I'm, you know, I've been doing this, that so it's really more about, you really have to. Focus on the message and not so much the quality is important, but it's, it's less important than, than your message and you, and what you're Sarah: delivering. You know what that makes me think of is it's funny that we haven't kind of changed our headshots yet to being more human because sometimes you go on somebody's website and it's this beautiful girl. Like. Once in a lifetime that they look like that. And then you see their YouTube videos and you're like, Oh, they're actually human, Lou Bortone: right? And I, I did have photos when we were in Italy. I'm like, Oh, I want to have my pictures with really old buildings in the background and things like that. And then when people show up, they're like, Oh, you don't look like you look on, on [00:28:00] screen. So I used to do a really silly trick. Okay. Back in the Photoshop days is I would make my image actually a little wider so that I'd look heavier. And then when I showed up in person, people would say, Oh, you have you lost weight? So I was doing that reverse Photoshop, like, well, I want to look better in person. So I'm going to, but again, it's, it's, it is all about that authenticity and connection. And I talk about building loyalty through video, because again, it's really more about A relationship than about what camera you're using. Sarah: Yeah, it really feels like it's. I explained it in levels of intimacy, right? And so people sign up to your newsletter that they get your emails. That's the kind of the low level or before that it's even social media. Right. And then there's a higher level is newsletter and even higher letter that level Dell will be YouTube or, you know, any kind of video. And then probably [00:29:00] zoom calls where it's like in person zoom calls and then the actual in person meeting. But yeah. I do feel already, you know, we're seeing each other's facial expressions and that, yeah, that creates trust and loyalty. I Lou Bortone: totally agree. Yeah. And again, you know, even though, thank goodness we're past the pandemic and live events are coming back and conferences are back, there's still going to be that hybrid events, people working from home much more than they used to. I mean, my kids who are 25 they have never worked in an office. Everything they've done is, is on screen, on zoom, on Google meet, whatever it is. That's just the way they work now. Yeah, Sarah: yeah, yeah. No, it's crazy. Yeah, it really is. So let us talk a little bit to wrap up around the future. So we mentioned AI, we mentioned that, you know, Google is not really easy anymore to have your [00:30:00] blog posts featured. So what is, what do you see the future of video? How do you see it? Lou Bortone: I think it's, you know, obviously there's going to be a lot more volume because people are going to continue to flock to YouTube and watch YouTube shorts. I think we're going to see, you know, shorter bursts of videos, like. TikTok and Instagram reels are going to continue and it's a little harder to make the connection there because you're on for a shorter amount of time. But I think we're going to see the shorter videos, promoting podcasts and longer content where you really can connect because again, you're obviously going to make a better connection with somebody if you're seeing or hearing them for, you know, 15, 20 minutes, rather than. Forty five seconds and i think the other thing is that there may be a little bit of a not really a backlash but sort of an anti AI thing like okay i've seen the robotic you know synthetic version of blue but where's the real you know i'm gonna show up on facebook live and not be perfect but be real so i think you'll start [00:31:00] to see a little bit more of you know as much as we're going to be using AI that's still not going to you know literally replace the person and their message. Sarah: Yeah, I hope so. I mean, I'm, I'm all for AI, but exactly. It's still, in a way it makes the videos that we're doing even more special and more human. So, so maybe that's also a good. Lou Bortone: Yeah. So, yeah, because that's the, you know, it's almost like if you send out an email blast, it's not very personal. If you send out an, an AI video, it's great, but it's not. You know, it's personal or familiar or engaging. And even now that chat GPT is, is starting to put in I think it's called Sora where you can put in a prompt and chat GPT will create a video from nothing, which is great, but it's still not. You, I don't think so. What Sarah: does it do? It creates an avatar of you or just, Lou Bortone: you know, if you say create a video about a trip [00:32:00] to, to Boston mass, it's going to pull in footage from Boston and scenes and sites. And I think, you know, eventually if you record yourself, it'll be able to do sort of a facsimile of you, but it's still not going to be the real you. So, yeah, Sarah: some interesting, interesting things coming our way. That's for sure. Lou Bortone: Yeah, it's crazy. So I think there's still gonna be a place, a really important place for those videos. If I do a lot of video email, I just sort of, you know, rather than sending email, I do a video on loom and, and share something. And I think again, that's more personal. Yeah, it takes a little bit more time, but I think it also has a lot more impact because you feel like, oh, wow, this person's actually talking to me. It's not going to 1000 people. Yeah, I love Sarah: that. Yeah. I love those videos. I remember them from, from the, the trip in Tuscany. One thing we didn't talk about so much, and maybe it's something that we don't need to worry about is the whole algorithm thing, because obviously we're replacing the [00:33:00] Google algorithm by a YouTube algorithm. So how much are you paying attention and telling your clients to pay attention to the algorithm and making sure it gets, you know, right? Yeah, Lou Bortone: I mean, as long as I've, I've been on YouTube since the very beginning, and it's constantly changing and it's hard to keep up with. And I actually work with a YouTube coach just to try to stay on top of it. Can, and he keeps telling me the same thing and I've heard it over and over. And I think it's the best idea is make videos for humans, not algorithm. Don't try to game the system. Don't do keyword stuffing. I mean, I, I was talking to him about keywords and tags and he's like, just don't worry about it. It doesn't even matter anymore. Just make, you know, know who your audience is and, and try to connect with them and give them what they expect from you, what they want from you. And don't say, oh, you know, I'm going to make a knitting video because knitting is really hot. This is like, well, that's not what I do. So, so don't try to gain the system because you're not going to figure it [00:34:00] out and just make videos for an audience and for a person rather than for an algorithm. Man, Sarah: that's really refreshing because it feels like we're trying to figure out the algorithm and by the time you figured it out, it changed again, Lou Bortone: right? I know it's like I used to have coaches are like, okay, your title has to be 69 characters and your description has to be this and you know, it's still important to optimize your video the best you can, but at the end of the day, you know, spend more time making the video than trying to, you know, figure out just the exact keyword to include. Yeah. Sarah: Wow, I'm glad I asked you that early Lou Bortone: relief. It's like save, save you a lot of trouble in, in SEO research. And it's not completely, you know, it's not that important anymore. It's still counts for something, but like my YouTube coach is like, don't worry about the keywords for the tags and keywords, just put in different spellings of your name. So if somebody spells your name wrong, they'll still find you like, okay. [00:35:00] So so it's, you know, and, and the other thing is that with YouTube. It's shifted so much. I mean, maybe keywords were 80 percent of the people finding your video and now it's like 10%. So, and I even look at my analytics and I say, Oh, you know, only a few of these viewers came from search. The vast majority of them came from suggested videos of people finding the video because they, you know, they're seeking you out and they know, Oh yeah, I need video advice or I need to know how to do such and such. Okay. Sarah: Interesting. Yeah. So it just keeps, keeps on changing. So as long as you put your videos out there, you're, Lou Bortone: you're doing something right. Consistency is really, really important. I mean, YouTube likes consistency and YouTube likes watch time. So people always say, well, should I be doing video shorts or longer videos? And really a combination is best because you're sort of getting the best of both worlds. But YouTube, you know, the algorithm still does reward watch time. So if people start a video with you and then stick with it, [00:36:00] YouTube loves that because you're on the channel longer. So that's why I think podcasts are doing so well on YouTube because tend to stick with the, you know, the whole podcast rather than just watch two minutes of it. Yeah. Yeah. Sarah: That's good to know. Well Last question. What would you say people who are just starting out and they're kind of, and maybe they're introverts, what's the first video that they should do? Lou Bortone: I think that the lowest hanging fruit is live video, Facebook Live, YouTube Live. I mean, you can go on and do a video. Maybe you just do it into a Facebook group. But I think live videos have a little bit less of an expectation of perfection. So you can show up, you can make a few mistakes. You can. Do your ums and ahs, whatever, and people are not going to be that concerned about it. So I think practicing with live video is a really good way to get your feet wet and sort of get, you know, ease your way into videos. And then after you've done a bunch of those and you realize like, Oh my God, I didn't die on [00:37:00] video. Then you can say, now I'm going to go record a video for my homepage and maybe I'll make that more professional. Sarah: That's, that's cool. And so in live video, does that mean that people can actually come on live? Right? Lou Bortone: Yeah. And you know, with like Facebook live, again, you can, you can say, I'm only going to go live to my private group. So maybe you feel a little bit safer starting there because you know, the folks in your group. Right. Oftentimes I'll do a video and then on the Facebook setting, I'll do only me. So like, okay, it's, it's live, but it's not, nobody's seeing it. And then maybe later on, I'll say, okay, that, that wasn't so bad. I'm going to change that view to public. So even though you recorded it ahead of time, you didn't make it live until afterwards. Yeah. Sarah: Love that. Very good. Well, thanks so much for sharing all your godfatherly knowledge. Thank you. It's been great. Tell people please where they can find you and, and I know you have a, a free tool for us as well. Lou Bortone: Everything's at [00:38:00] loubortone. com. And I also like people sometimes have trouble planning their video, what they're going to say. So I have a free video planner at loubortone. com forward slash. And that'll just help you sort of map out your video and, and know what you're going to say. And you don't have to script it. You don't have to have it all, you know, word for word. Sometimes it just helps to know, okay, I'm going to do my intro and I'm going to do these three points. And then I have a call to action. Sarah: Yeah. Yeah. I think that's what I do. I think it's really helpful because. By the time you're two thirds in, you don't remember how you wanted to end it. And so it's kind of good. Lou Bortone: Yeah. A few bullet points. And then there's always, you know, editing. You can always go into Descript and use the AI to take out all your filler words and, and sound smarter. Sarah: That's great. I always ask one last question to all my guests and that is, what are you grateful for today or this week? Lou Bortone: Wow. At my age, just waking up, but, but yeah, I mean, it's [00:39:00] here in the U. S. in February in New England, it's, it's chilly out, but you know, the sun's out and everybody's healthy and, you know, it's all good. Nice. Sarah: Wonderful. Well, let's hope it stays like that.

Do you often grapple with the unseen, untouchable divinity that seems to permeate your life and the decisions you make? This episode invites you on a transformative journey, where we revisit and dissect powerful narratives from the Torah. We witness the epic showdown between Nimrod and Abraham, underlining the significance of worshipping the 'invisible God.' We unravel how this commitment to an entity we cannot see yet profoundly feel can guide us to discern right from wrong, shaping our core values.Taking our discourse further, we delve into an enlightening comparison between the soul and Hakodosh Baruchu, both entities that can 'see' without being seen. We invite you to question the source of true satisfaction in life. Is it rooted in worldly possessions, or does it lie in something more profound - wisdom, relationships, peace, perhaps? Join us to contemplate the eternal aspects of existence that provide a deeper sense of fulfillment. We encourage you to choose the 'invisible path' - the path of the immortal soul that promises enduring peace and fulfillment.Support the showJoin the WhatsApp community for daily motivational Torah content!

Greetings Trashlings! Sara Armour & Casey Bunker are back to talk about disruption on the beach during BIP week 4. With no money & no prospects, Casey faints and implements a subconscious strategy to leave the beach on his terms. Peter also leaves the beach “on his terms” after being “kicked off” by the cast even though he wouldn't have gotten a rose anyway. The beach is split. The cast is separated and new boys and girls are sent to their respective camps to seed new connections. Aqua Sun / Cancer Moon Britney finally finds a castmate in Tyler that she seems genuinely excited about her future with, but what about Andrew? He's on a date talking video games with Jessenia so all seems calm in the little cutie corner of the bach beach. Shenae remains true to character by stealing Tyler for a tantric yoga date despite his connection with Britney and after having been won over by Sag Sun / Virgo Moon Logan, last week. Luckily, Logan spends some time with new-to-beach Sarah. Upon first watch it looks like Shenae will win out over Sarah, but does their astrological compatibility say the same? Will the Aries Sun / Cancer Moon of Shenea prove to be too immature compared to Taurus Sun / Sag Moon Sarah? Predictions made despite initial gut reactions. Rodney is smitten with Eliza — perhaps TOO smitten? Michael A finally meets Danielle M who also has an ex-partner who died.

Show notes:

Dr Sarah Love is a Sports medicine Veterinarian. We talk about all the things we (you and I) don't do with our K9 athletes. Warm-ups cool-downs and stretching. That's right! maybe we could develop a simple per hunt routine that could help get a little more out of the creatures that we ask so much of! We also talk about the onset and maintenance of Osteoarthritis, and what we can do about it.

They say we're all born creative. I believe this and yet struggle to embrace it in my everyday life. How can we tap into our innate creativity? How might it benefit us and others when we do? For this conversation, I knew I wanted to talk to artist and writer Sarah Love. I've been following Sarah and gifting her calendars to my clients, friends and family for years. Her daily nuggets of rainbow-colored wisdom help me love myself more and tap into my creative nature. Sarah Love McCoy is not only committed to inspiring creativity in people like me, but also to deepening the practice of love inside and out. Sarah is the creator of the “I Stand For Love” Calendar (in its 19th year in print!) and a new book Every. Day. Love. which takes a deeper dive into the calendar's daily messages and offers the reader fresh insight to explore. Also, the illustrator of the Mystics Oracle Deck, Sarah's artwork helps access intuition beyond rational thinking.

I'm honored to share this special episode with a woman who has been an incredible source of wisdom, support, and guidance in my life, a mentor and teacher who has helped me claim the “mystic” in me, Lindsay Pera. Lindsay and I connected in a magical way at a group dinner in San Francisco about four years ago. Though she was seated at the other end of a long table, she came up to me before the evening ended to say “I have this feeling I'm supposed to talk with you!” We had a delightful conversation and parted ways. But several months later, when my youngest son Jacob received a Lyme disease diagnosis, I searched in one of my Facebook groups for someone who had experience with the disease, and Lindsay's name popped up again and again. I reached out to her for guidance and after an almost two-hour phone conversation, I learned about how she discovered she had chronic Lyme disease and had passed it along in utero to two of her children. I hung up with tremendous admiration for her motherhood journey, a plan of action to navigate Jacob's care, and also knowing that Lindsay would become a trusted resource in my life. Blending strategy honed from her career as an analyst at Accenture with her intuition as the founder of a new paradigm business called the Modern Mystics Institute, Lindsay is a source of inspiration and guidance for so many others like me. We all benefit from transformational courses she has created like the Journey to Right Livelihood which you'll hear more about, her books the Mystics Path and the Mystics Almanac, the Mystics Oracle Deck she created with her partner Sarah Love and her membership community, the Mystics Society.  The idea that we can care for ourselves and the children in our lives, even through significant health and developmental challenges, and do work we love, blending all the parts of who we are, stepping into our leadership and legacy, and finding magic and gratitude along the way, is something Lindsay demonstrates herself. And she illuminates it all for us in this conversation. From her decision to move her family to a multigenerational homestead and creating the Modern Mystics Institute, to how she's navigated having chronic Lyme and now long-haul COVID, this discussion is a beautiful weaving of all the ways Lindsay slows down in her life to manifest and notice what she's grateful for, even when things are difficult. Her gratitude practice, which she started in a “spark moment” when she found beauty in the sunset during one of her darkest days, begins its 11th year of 365 days just as this episode is being shared.I was so grateful for this time with Lindsay. I hope you'll find time to slow down and listen to this beautiful conversation, so you can find strands of what Lindsay shares that are meant for you, and that help you weave some new magic and meaning in your E.P.I.C. life. Connect with Lindsay Website Instagram Facebook   This episode is dedicated by: Hi! I'm Selina Davis, and I am honored to dedicate this episode of the Mother's Quest podcast to Lindsay Pera, my friendtor. What's a friendtor? Well, that is a friend and mentor all wrapped up in one. Over the years, Lindsay has helped me learn how to gather all the things I know to create the right livelihood. Lindsay even introduced me to Julie as a Mystic, because of our similar path in disability and special needs parenting. I am a person of a multifaceted lifestyle, so I've learned to create a business with blogging and podcasting, all while creating a special education advocacy practice, life coaching, and management consulting, with an emerging community called Spectrum Mother. Without the help of Julie and Lindsay, I never would have realized how to gather and align my life and my work with being a mother to a special needs child who is severely neurodivergent. Thanks to them, I am reminded to always live an EPIC life and claim my right to livelihood. Thank you again so much! -- Selina Davis is the founder of Trillium Consultancy and Spectrum Mother, both of which are emerging communities dedicated to connecting caregivers virtually in respite and retreat offerings, as well as training and supporting parents to become advocates.  Selina is a cis-gendered woman, a woman of color, mother, social justice advocate, and former social services clerical administrator. She parents a teenage son with profound neurodiversity and who also has an additional diagnosis of intellectual and developmental delay, as well as mental health challenges. Selina has also earned certifications and education-based degrees specific to advocacy.    Selina is truly passionate about children, women, and caregivers and believes it's time to start supporting one another by hosting virtual and in-person retreats. She continues sharing her message through her podcasts, “The Parental Advocate Strategist” and “Strong as a Mother”. She is also running a series called 52 Weeks, 52 Caregivers which aims on showcasing the stories of a caregiver each week.  You can connect with Selina on Facebook and Twitter.

Topics Discussed in this Episode: The sacred trinity of mothers who raised Lindsay: her biological mother, her stepmother, and the woman who cared for her daily while her mother worked as a trailblazing leader at Hewlett Packard The internal voice that said "this is killing you" every time Lindsay walked out the door to her fast-paced management consulting firm  The chronic Lyme diagnosis that Lindsay discovered after her third child was born with serious neurological issues. A moment of total defeat that transformed into a moment of gratitude and a daily gratitude practice that Lindsay has maintained for over a decade. Lindsay's family's journey of healing from COVID and what was different for her this time on the "spiral" or "nautilus" of coping with chronic illness. Lindsay's perspective about how to apply ancient learning traditions for modern times without appropriating, capitalizing, and extracting. The annual program Journey to Right Livelihood, rooted in the Buddhist tradition, that helps us identify our soul purpose and path, sacred commerce, and our leadership and legacy. As we grapple with current crises, like climate change, Lindsay's belief that we all came in for these times. The importance of tending to our "taproot" placing ourselves at the "center of our rings” and her "YOU" acronym for building connections.

Interestingly, the first time the Torah ever says the word love is in the context of Yitzchak's marriage to Rivka. The Torah never says the word love in the context of Avraham's marriage to Sarah. The Torah does say that Yaakov loved Rachel but that was prior to their marriage. In this shiur, Rav Burg explores the nature of how we articulate emotions before relationships, within relationships and when we encounter various crisis in our lives.

The ladies get a Tarot card reading from diviner Sarah Love and shocking results are brought to light. Jen's used tampons have brought a bear to the neighborhood while Carol takes the high road in regard to an unfortunate accident. Mom Swipes Left tries really hard to be better people, but ultimately, it really comes down to the crack and the gays.

“I’ve got my eye on the future. The future that keeps me going forward is one that is built in a more loving way. A more compassionate world is the one that I keep in my mind’s eye as my guidepost and my true north.” – Sarah Love Politics and spirituality have a long-standing dysfunctional relationship. In this conversation with artist and writer Sarah Love and Lindsay Pera, founder of the Modern Mystic Institute, we begin to dig for the roots of this dysfunction.  We already know the damage: On the right, spirituality has been manipulated and melded with politics and patriotism to oppress people and rigidly control the narrative about values in our country. The consequences are disempowering. On one hand, we’ve got the “love and light” spiritual practitioners who resist analysis and truth-telling about political and social realities. On the other hand, we have political activists who have rejected spirituality because it’s been used to bypass the harsh realities of white supremacy, cis-hetero patriarchy, and capitalism. It’s time to rewrite the narrative and to push back on constructs that narrowly define what it means to love and what it means to be a peacemaker. What if we refuse to be divided by the pundits and politicians who insist that protest, patriotism and action have to look just so? That our protestations must be polite and palatable? What if we get super clear amidst the gaslighting about what loving our country looks like? If we are going to change the trajectory of our country, we’ve got to move forward as whole people, not as people who are compartmentalized, divided and constricted. It’s time to unapologetically reclaim, redefine and sharpen our tools. We can unapologetically infuse love and spirituality with politics and politics with spirituality. The Way Station, with Lindsay, Sarah and I as your guides, will take you deeper into this re-tooling and revision of our narrative.  The Way Station is a place for those working to dismantle systems of oppression can gather, refuel, get tools and get grounded in strategy. Participants will be bringing our political expertise as well as our embodied wisdom and intuitive tools. We will explore the ways in which we can stay active, involved, creative and aligned in this moment of flux and crisis. Expect rigor and magic, love and analysis. No matter the outcome on November 3rd, our work is not over.  We are in it for the long haul of liberation.Please join us. Sarah, Lindsay and I talked about: The ways in which we’ve been socialized to avoid discussing politics and systems of oppression; Why politically progressive people shy away from spirituality; How spirituality and politics, when used together, have historically been weaponized to oppress people; The importance of questioning, pushing back, redefining and expanding our understanding of engaging politically with the tools of faith, peacemaking and love; Our “pivot points”: those moments in our lives where we saw more clearly our role as activists and how we could wield spirituality as a powerful force for change; Our upcoming retreat, Way Station, on October 30th, which is an opportunity to come together to refuel, get tools, and ground strategies for the work ahead; Linday’s and Sarah’s divination on the energies of 2021. About Sarah and Lindsay: Sarah Love McCoy is an artist, writer and teacher working on expanding and awakening the power of love in herself and human hearts the world over. Creator of the “I Stand for Love” Calendar (in its 17th year in print!), Sarah’s best known for her daily nuggets of inspiration. The belief that healing our inner wounds, learning to trust our hearts, moving energy through our hands (while getting out of our heads) and coming together in a community as a path towards a more loving tomorrow is the philosophy behind Sarah’s mission and purpose. Lindsay Pera is the CEO of the Modern Mystics Institute and founder of the Mystics Society. As a Mystic mama, tech entrepreneur and intuitive strategist, she’s a sought after contributor and motivator on the topics of health, wealth and transformation. When she is not extolling the virtues of “Sacred Commerce” or “Resonance” based business, you can find her knocking almonds and generally getting her gratitude on. Lindsay's new paradigm business community, The Mystic’s Society, is a safe haven for entrepreneurs weaving magic into their *work* in the world. It is her passion to direct resources into the hands of entrepreneurs, creatives, and world changers. --- Thank you so much for joining us!

This week we sit with UK’s First Lady of rap - Sarah Love!

To me, grace is the thing that fills in the gaps. Grace is when I do everything I know to do and it shouldn't be enough and then it is anyway. Grace brings together all of the unseen pieces I couldn’t have known I needed. Grace is the thing that makes it work together when it shouldn’t.  Grace is the thing you don’t deserve, but it doesn’t matter.  Because love. Because God. Because grace. Because deciding you are worthy. This short clip was taken from our good friend Sarah Love's program "Good Fortune" -- email sarahlove555@gmail.com for details.

It is time to change the game around what women are allowed to want. It is our job, no matter what level we are at, to look into our limiting beliefs and choose a more empowering truth about how money gets to work for us. We can be Spiritual AF and still desire to be supported by Money and have a beautiful life. You CAN play Bigger. You CAN have more. You are meant to be POWERFUL around money.  This episode was taken ‘Embrace The Rainbow’ a training program by Sarah Love. More details: https://www.powerandtruth555coaching.com/a/20245/qio3J7FX

The Sarah Love brand became mainstream knowledge the world over when she began her weekly BBC Radio 1Xtra broadcasts and on screen presenting for MTV Base. She used these platforms as a vehicle for true Hip Hop with no prejudice to which country it is recorded in, and endeared her a wider audience and opened up opportunities to once again work with old friends and family. From the Deal Real Records (original Deal Real!!) and Kung Fu eras of British Hip Hop and further, she opened up a path to work as a sort of special envoy for Hip Hop worldwide and maintains good relationships with the legends and stalwarts of the American scene from Grandmaster Flash to Souls Of Mischief to The Roots, KRS One, Raekwon of the Wu-Tang Clan and many more. Many female DJs have fallen off or never even got noticed in the mans world that is DJing, but Sarah has a substance and technical ability high above many men on the 1′s and 2′s, and does what she does without having to bark on about not just being a pretty face. This is why she's garnered a respect throughout the worldwide Hip Hop community that has her jet-setting around the planet.
