What an old man at the pool taught me about shame, selling, and showing up online.

In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what coaching can really do for you — especially if you're a therapist, first-gen Latina, daughter of immigrants, creative, or service provider who wants more time, income, calendar space, and the freedom to fully express your gifts through your work. This conversation is for the woman who feels boxed in by the traditional therapy career path, who has built a “successful” life that no longer fits, and who is craving a business that honors her values, culture, creativity, and desire for a simpler and more spacious schedule of aligned dream clients. I share my own journey of walking away from traditional therapy work to reclaim freedom in my calendar, income, nervous system, and self-expression — building a coaching business that allows me to work on my terms. Here's What You'll Learn: Why coaching is a powerful path to freedom for therapists, healers, and service providers How therapy's limits around ethics, state limits, emotional labor, and neutrality keep first generation therapists boxed in — and why coaching offers a liberating alternative A real-life client story of a private practice therapist who added coaching to her work, reduced her workweek to three days, prioritized wellness and creativity, and attracted her first dream coaching client by sharing her story. The exact framework I use to help my clients transition from therapist to CEO of a sustainable, freedom-based coaching business: Identity Activation: Shedding therapist conditioning and stepping into your CEO identity Offer Clarity & Simplicity: Designing an aligned coaching offer that helps you feel proud and that you actually want to market Selling with Safety: Learning to sell in a way that honors your nervous system and your values I also share three simple steps you can take right now to start moving toward freedom. If you are a therapist, first-gen Latina, or woman of color feeling the call to create more freedom in your life by leveraging your skills as a therapist to add coaching to your work, this episode will help you see what's possible — and show you how to start creating a business and life that feels free and liberating.

The answer lies in authenticity, a deep understanding of customer values, and a story that truly resonates. In this episode, Joshua sits down with Sam Ingersoll, a passionate advocate and marketing leader in the regenerative food space. Sam shares his incredible "full circle" journey—from growing up on a farm and hating it, to an Ivy League education and the high-stakes world of tech marketing, and finally back to his roots, promoting the very principles he once fled. This conversation is a masterclass in regenerative marketing, exploring how to build a resilient brand, why listening is your most powerful tool, and how the connection between soil health and our own gut health may be the most important story we can tell.

(38:37) From Ivy League to Farmer's Logic: How Sam's educational journey taught him the power of asking "why" and how that same principle of observation and adjustment is critical in regenerative agriculture.

(1:08:29) The Tipping Point for the Movement: Sam's key insight—that the regenerative movement will truly take off when consumers, particularly women, connect the dots between soil health and their family's gut health.

In this episode of the HVAC School podcast, Bryan welcomes back Brynn Cooksey from Air Doctors and HVAC U to discuss critical topics facing the HVAC industry today. Brynn brings his unique perspective as both a successful contractor in southeast Michigan and an industry educator who has made the transition to focusing primarily on workforce development and training. The conversation begins with a deep dive into indoor air quality (IAQ), where Brynn challenges the common industry approach of throwing products at problems without proper testing. He emphasizes that effective IAQ solutions start with comprehensive testing to identify specific issues like high particles, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), or excessive carbon dioxide levels. Rather than relying on "magic bullet" products, Brynn advocates for a holistic approach that prioritizes ventilation strategies, source control, and proper filtration. He particularly stresses the importance of the "V" in HVAC, ventilation, which he believes is often overlooked in favor of flashier solutions. His company's protocol of testing on every customer visit, from first encounters to maintenance calls, has created a culture where technicians become comfortable discussing IAQ solutions based on actual data rather than assumptions. The discussion transitions into ethical sales practices, a topic that resonates strongly in an industry where pressure to sell can sometimes conflict with customer needs. Brynn defines unethical sales as pressuring customers into products that won't benefit them or failing to provide complete information about benefits and consequences. His approach centers on thorough customer surveys to understand actual problems and budget constraints, followed by tying specific solutions to identified issues. This methodology puts the customer in control of decisions while positioning the contractor as a trusted advisor rather than a high-pressure salesperson. Brynn argues that price alone doesn't determine ethics - rather, it's the intent behind recommendations and the transparency of communication that matters most. The final segment focuses on workforce development, an area where Brynn has found significant success. His company's registered apprenticeship program, developed through the Department of Labor, has become a competitive advantage in attracting talent while providing structured, in-house training. The program requires minimal cost beyond commitment to ethical treatment of apprentices and systematic tracking of their progress.

Most law firm owners build a business that depends entirely on them—then wonder why no one wants to buy it.  In this episode, we talk with Victoria Collier, founder of Quid Pro Quo, about how to build a firm that's not only profitable, but truly sellable. Victoria shares what she learned selling her own estate planning and elder law firm after 18 years—and how she now helps other lawyers do the same.  You'll learn what buyers actually look for (hint: it's not just revenue), why your firm needs to run without you, and how a shift in mindset can create more freedom and future value. Victoria also shares surprising truths about law firm sales—like the possibility of getting cash upfront—and how AI is quickly becoming a key part of due diligence for buyers and sellers alike.     Listen to our other episodes on the selling your practice:  #369: Selling Your Practice, with Tom Lenfestey Apple | Spotify |  Lawyerist  #326: A Succession Plan for Your Law Practice, with Tom Lenfestey Apple | Spotify | Lawyerist    Have thoughts about today's episode?

Welcome to this new episode of Papa PhD Gold! Here's the big takeaway from this excerpt from my conversation with scientific writing expert Anna Clemens: Selling isn't a dirty word in academia – it's all about communicating your research in a way that connects with people, even if they aren't specialists in your field. If you approach editors, funders, or stakeholders with clarity, enthusiasm, and a strong story, you're not being sleazy, you're making your hard work accessible and impactful. So, embrace storytelling, invite others to the party, and remember: refining your message through feedback is how you truly shine.   David and Anna discuss practical strategies for pitching research effectively, tackling the stigma around self-promotion, and learning to think from the reader's perspective—whether that's an editor, peer reviewer, or even a potential funder. They also touch on the importance of feedback, the challenge of letting go of your favorite sentences, and how emotional reactions can stand in the way of clearer, more impactful science communication. If you're ready to reframe how you talk about your research and embrace the skills that get your work noticed, this episode is for you. Key take-home messages: Selling Isn't a Dirty Word: Selling your research is simply about communicating its value. Think of it as presenting your findings in a way that editors and broader audiences can truly see their significance, not exaggerating, but clarifying impact. Tell the Right Story: Good storytelling (not hype!) helps you realize and highlight the true significance of your work. Pitch at the right level – especially for general editors who may not be deep in your specialty – and make your message accessible. Embrace Feedback (and Ditch Your Darlings): Don't get attached to specific sentences or ideas. Use peer and non-expert feedback to clarify your writing before peer review; sometimes the most clever lines aren't the clearest ones! If you're looking to sharpen your academic communication and get your research noticed – for publication, funding, or public engagement – this episode is a must-listen.  This episode's links: Anna Clemens | Website The Researchers' Writing | Podcast Episode Transcript David Mendes: One of the things that you mentioned that was interesting and that I think people should take note is when you are communicating with this general editor, you are not communicating with an academic. It's someone who is working for a business. You said something that I think often is not a bad word. But anyway, it can be almost a bad word. Sell your article. You said that. And I do think people, you know, if you're listening and this kind of give you chills hearing this, try to accept it in a way and say, in this specific framework of communicating with this person who is kind of a gatekeeper of. Does this article go to the next step or not? I need to. If it's not you, if you're not able to have this conversation in a less academic and more selly marketing way, maybe someone in your lab will. But I think it's important to develop a relationship with these people where you can have a relaxed conversation and just talk. Like kind of popularizing what the article is about. This is kind of what I got from what you said, and it's the first time I hear about it. And that's why I kind of put a note to talk about it. Anna Clemens: Yeah, I love that it clicks up on that because you were right. Like, selling is the dirty word in academia. And if it makes you cringe, I mean, running my own business, I had to think about selling. I had to really examine my relationship with selling because of that. Because I come from academia as well. I have been there. I know how, like, selling and capitalism, things like that are frowned upon. And, And I mean, you know, I do agree, I do agree about. I hate bad salesmanship. But selling can also be good. Selling is not inherently bad. That's what I want. Say if you think about, you have a problem, right? And you. Let's say you go to the pharmacy of a skin problem and you tell them about your problem and they give you a really good product that solves your skin, I don't know, eczema or whatever. You're like super happy that it will help your problem and you walk away, you use the product, your skin goes better. You're like, wow. I mean, this is selling. Selling isn't only sleazy and bad. Telling us, basically. And I mean, I don't talk about planning magic, actually. I talk way more about storytelling. But lots of people don't like storytelling because they think it's too much, it's too salesy. And because storytelling is like, oh, it means like, oh, you're like, exaggerating your findings, like, overstating them. And I feel like this is not the fault of selling and this is not the fault of storytelling, but this is the fault of using it the wrong way, you know, using the tool the wrong way. Like there is a way of using the tool the right way. And this is. We really try to think about where your readers at. Like, well, I always say it's like put yourself in your reader's shoes, think about where they're at. Like the general editors who say they're not an academic or they probably did like a PhD postdoc, but they're not in academia anymore. Look up like the general editor you're submitting to. Look up what field they're covering and just get it like going to like think about, okay, how many research topics do they need to be able to judge? Right. Like they won't have in depth knowledge, the same as your peer reviewers or as your like direct colleague. So just thinking about that and trying to like pitch it at a level that they will be able to understand and significant and actually often it is that we ourselves as the author haven't really thought about the significance, you know, not in that specific way. I mean, I see this happen all the time. That thinking about what story you are telling helps you as the author to actually realize what potential impact your research could have. Because we often don't. Like we are. Especially if you're a PhD student, you probably struggle with this a little more because you're so close to your research and you haven't maybe haven't read all the literature surrounding, you know, that maybe your PI has or someone who has been working on that topic for a longer time. I suggest just re examine, just challenge. If you feel like selling is a bad thing, just think about it a little bit. Try to challenge that thought a little bit.   David Mendes: Yeah, Jen says, and it's interesting. Selling is like inviting people to your party. If you don't, nobody will come. And it's true. You just, if you do it according to your values, it'll be fine. It's just that actually in that space, the academic space, some things have a bad ring to them. It's like one thing that I've tried to find a new expression for is personal branding. I think this is really interesting and I think just picking up on what you said, doing this work of doing a little bit of storytelling and selling of the story of your research will also for sure have impacts on talking with stakeholders who might be funding you later on, et cetera, et cetera. So I think there's only positives to that. Now, the other thing I picked up on that I found really, really interesting, it has to do with the peer reviewers. And you said, you know, it's on you, to be clear. And I do remember also that with that reaction of, oh, they didn't understand what, you know, they, you know, they didn't understand what I wrote. There's some frustration there that I remember seeing people getting. And I wonder, you know, I feel that getting frustrated is not the useful reaction. So like you said, these comments that might sound like they don't know enough on the topic, they don't get it, is kind of stopping you from actually looking at what you wrote and making it better. I feel that's what you were saying. I was just wanting to make a point of reinforcing it because emotions can get in the way of you getting a better product at the end. Anna Clemens: You're right. I mean, it really is like that. There's actually, in general, there is a saying that is called kill your darling. Sometimes we are very in love with our own. Like, we have like a sentence or tone of phrase we really like. It happens to me all the time when I write, I'm like, I love this sentence. When you reread it or when you get feedback and you feel like, okay, it doesn't go. It's always the ones you like the most that unfortunately they don't help. You know, they don't help you get the flow you want. They don't help you. I mean, they may be breaking the flow. They may make it unclear, or there's like a better way of cutting it. Like, yeah, don't be too attached to what you have written and do get feedback. I mean, it is really a process and it is a skill. So it's a skill you need to do. Like, to develop a skill, you first need to know how to do it and then you need to practice it. Right? Like, even if someone tells you this is how you do it, I always think it's better if you have someone who tells you how to do it, because then you kind of have a shortcut. But then once you know kind of the system or the strategy is, then practice it and get feedback. Like, have people have other people read it. Like, have your lab mate read it. I mean, your supervisor, whoever, like, read it and ask them, okay, is this clear? Like, did you follow this? Or is there any confusion? I mean, I always think it's good to have someone read it who doesn't know so much about your studies. You have a bit of an outside perspective, and you don't need to give them your whole article. Just if you have points where you aren't sure or something, you can kind of prevent getting that feedback from the peer reviewers if you do that. Thank you, Anna Clemens!

Have an idea or tip? Send us a text!What if everything you've been taught about sales is actually holding you back from extraordinary success? Marc Von Musser, sales expert and founder of Soar and Roar, challenges conventional wisdom with a refreshing perspective that could transform your approach to business.Growing up as the son of a renowned photographer who captured 150 national magazine covers in a single year, Von Musser learned early that success comes not from transactions but from capturing essence and creating value. This foundation, combined with his journey from a nine-year-old newspaper delivery boy to Tony Robbins' director of coaching, has given him a unique lens on what truly drives sustainable business growth.In this compelling conversation, Von Musser dismantles the tired notion that "sales is a numbers game," replacing it with a human-centered approach that produced staggering results—increasing Tony Robbins' coaching revenue from $2 million to $30 million annually, and product sales from $11,000 to $2.1 million in just six months.You'll discover why competing on price is "a race to the gutter," how to position yourself as a trusted advocate rather than a salesperson, and why an abundance mindset unlocks creativity that scarcity thinking suffocates. Through captivating stories—from helping his tattoo artist brother generate $5,000 in just 13 days after making zero income, to explaining why he willingly paid $15,000 for a sauna available elsewhere for $4,000—Von Musser reveals the profound impact of heart-driven selling.Ready to tap iReal Talk About MarketingAn Acxiom podcast where we discuss marketing made better, bringing you real...Listen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifyMediaclipMediaclip strives to continuously enhance the user experience while dramatically increasing revenue.Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREEIndependent Photo ImagersIPI is a member + trade association and a cooperative buying group in the photo + print industry.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Bestselling author Jo Piazza (Under the Influence) and Cristen don their milkmaid dresses to talk tradwives, elusive tradhusbands and the hustle. From homeschooling curriculum to MAHA-approved supplements, tradwife influencers are serving up a fantasy of submission—and becoming breadwinners while they're at it. Jo unpacks why it's so lucrative, the research behind her new tradwife thriller Everyone Is Lying to You, the pink-pilled pipeline pulling women rightward, and the prairie-core dream versus generational wealth realities.**For ad-free bonus episodes and uncut guest interviews, join the Unladies Room Patreon.

Send us a textIn this no-holds-barred Daily Drop, Peaches dives headfirst into the latest national defense chaos—from Humvees rolling through LA to Marines moonlighting as ICE support in Florida. Pete Hegseth wants to bring the warrior spirit back (because apparently we lost it), and Jared's not buying the sudden patriotism unless you're ready to pull bodies from burning cars. Meanwhile, retired four-stars are back in the game pushing for E-7s and more F-35s… but who's paying them now? The Academy is bleeding staff, a nuclear microreactor is going to Alaska (because obviously), and the Air Force just teamed up with AI-piloted Valkyrie drones like it's Skynet 2.0. Also—yes, the Space Force canceled something big. Again. Strap in, nerds.

Donald Miller didn't set out to build a $100 million marketing empire; he just wanted to master the art of storytelling. While writing memoirs, he uncovered a powerful truth: every great story relies on a hero and a guide. That insight led to the creation of the StoryBrand framework, now used by thousands of businesses to clarify their message and scale. In this episode, Donald returns to unveil StoryBrand 2.0, an AI-powered upgrade of his classic framework. He shares how to position your business in a way customers can't ignore, using seven messaging soundbites to cut through the noise and transform your marketing, sales, and advertising goals. In this episode, Hala and Donald will discuss: (00:00) Introduction (02:26) The Captivating Power of Storytelling (04:37) The Birth of StoryBrand and StoryBrand AI (07:05) How Storytelling Helped Him Build a $100M Business (12:51) His Daily Routine and Productivity Tips (14:27) How the StoryBrand Framework Transforms Marketing (19:12) The 7 Soundbites Entrepreneurs Need to Drive Sales (31:43) Controlling Ideas vs. Taglines in Marketing (36:08) Leveraging Stakes for Greater Marketing Impact (39:49) Crafting Irresistible Story Gaps in Your Communication (45:38) Analyzing Brand Taglines and Messaging Strategies Donald Miller is the CEO of StoryBrand, Business Made Simple, and Coach Builder. He is the bestselling author of Building a StoryBrand, How to Grow Your Small Business, and his latest, Building a StoryBrand 2.0. Donald has helped over a million businesses, from scrappy startups to top brands like Chick-fil-A, scale through clear and compelling storytelling. He recently launched StoryBrand AI, a platform that combines his proven framework with artificial intelligence to generate sales marketing assets in minutes.
