Sue spent years leading high-performing teams in New York City's recruitment world. Then came burnout, long commutes, and layoffs. With a newborn and a toddler at home, she decided to stop building other people's companies and start her own. In this episode, we unpack what it really takes to pivot from paycheck to purpose — fear, patience, and the discipline to design a life around freedom, not frenzy.We dive into what founders get wrong about scale, how “stickiness” beats speed, and why being your own bottleneck can kill your dream faster than any competitor. From cash flow realities to the myth of overnight success, Sue shares the emotional and tactical lessons of rebuilding after collapse.TL;DR* The courage equation: Real growth = equal parts fear and excitement.* Don't go back to burnout: Layoffs can be a chance to rebuild — not return.* Cash flow kills faster than failure: Design for early revenue before “scaling.”* Patience > virality: Shark Tank stories aren't the norm — steady wins.* Stickiness beats scale: Differentiation creates sustainability.* AI advantage: Use GenAI for leverage, not replacement — efficiency still needs execution.* Don't be your own bottleneck: Founders must delegate or automate to grow.Memorable lines* “If you're doing the right thing, you should feel equal parts fear and excitement.”* “Nobody knows you're here until you tell them — at least eight times.”* “Fast growth is sexy, but slow cash burn wins the long game.”* “AI can't replace human grit — it just compresses the distance between idea and action.”Guest: Sue Bortone — Founder & Executive Coach, former NYC recruitment leader helping professionals rebuild their second act.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/suenorelle/Website: https://www.nobletalent.group/Why it mattersFreedom isn't found in escaping failure — it's earned by rebuilding smarter.

What if expecting more isn't harsh, but the most caring thing a leader can do? If you want to produce outstanding results, there is no easy path… for you or your people. Are you the type of leader who sets people up to achieve difficult things? Or do they dictate the terms?If you don't set an expectation of excellence, there are devastating implications for both team performance and individual job satisfaction.If you want to go deeper on how to take people where they don't necessarily want to go, have a listen to Ep.245: Drive for Performance?

Executive coach and researcher Marina Morgan (Morgan Impact) joins me to explore what few founders talk about openly—entrepreneurial trauma—and how resilience, not hustle, becomes your survival skill in an age of constant disruption.Marina works with leaders to navigate emotional recovery after layoffs, bankruptcies, and burnout—real losses that rarely get social support. Together we unpack how AI, rapid change, and relentless uncertainty are reshaping not just business models, but our nervous systems.The conversation moves from neurophysiology to leadership—why trauma isn't just mental, how adaptation speed varies person to person, and why founders need to treat resilience like revenue: measurable, trackable, and intentional.TL;DR* Entrepreneurial trauma: Failure leaves real physiological marks—acknowledge them.* AI stress loop: Fast tech shifts can outpace human adaptability.* Preventive care: Sleep, nutrition, and movement fuel better decisions.* Control what's controllable: Focus energy on what you can change.* Resilience is ROI: Strong nervous systems create stronger companies.* Professional help matters: When reactions don't fit reality, therapy restores alignment.Memorable lines* “Trauma isn't just in your head—it's in your MRI.”* “AI change is faster than our ability to adapt.”* “Your physical condition is your first strategy.”* “Resilience isn't luck—it's management.”Guest: Marina Morgan — Founder, Morgan ImpactLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marinamorgan-sf/Website: https://themorganimpact.com/Why it mattersEntrepreneurs experience real trauma—but rarely name it. As AI accelerates change, the leaders who will thrive aren't the toughest—they're the most self-aware, regulated, and resilient.Call to ActionIf this conversation lit something up for you, don't just let it fade.

If you watched Episode 1 (https://youtu.be/1mMcM8ZCQaA), you know what we're dealing with here. You know that the current system for learning timeline shifting is broken. Not because the teachings don't work, but because of how you're receiving them. YouTube can only give you surface-level introductions when you need deep mastery. You're isolated when you need community support. You can't reach me when you need guidance. You're consuming passively when you need active engagement. And I've been limited in what I can share and how deep I can go. The result? Your timeline shifts collapse. Your manifestations fade. Your quantum leaps pull you back to baseline. Not because you're not capable, but because the structure wasn't designed for permanent transformation.Today, I'm revealing the solution. What I've built to solve every single one of these problems. And by the end of this video, you're going to understand exactly how to access the depth, the community, the guidance, and the complete teachings that create timeline shifts that actually stick.

Originally from Uruguay and now based in Madison, WI, Matias helps cities and organizations connect with underheard voices. He reminds us that progress isn't just technological—it's social. Without infrastructure, access, and inclusion, adoption doesn't happen.EVs, he argues, are a mirror for how we build systems: Who benefits, who's left out, and who gets a say?TL;DR* Equity first: EV access must include every neighborhood, not just the affluent.* Infrastructure gap: Charging deserts echo old redlining patterns.* Ethical supply: Sustainable batteries require fair labor, not just clean tech.* Density wins: Transit, walkability, and urban design matter more than suburban car swaps.* Trust gap: People don't adopt systems they don't feel included in.Memorable lines* “We'll buy in when it's built for everyone.”* “You can't be in community while there's smoke. When the air clears, connection starts again.”* “Electric cars don't build trust—people do.”Guest: Matias Lemos Castillo — Founder, MLC ConsultingLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mlemoscastillo/Website: https://consultantmlc.com/Why it mattersEV adoption is a trust story wrapped in a tech story. Until cities design for inclusion, access, and connection, the real revolution won't be electric—it'll be community-powered.Call to ActionIf this conversation lit something up for you, don't just let it fade.

Ever feel like business is just one long game of “try this, ditch that, oh hell no not again”? In this episode, I share the very real highs and lows of experimenting with new platforms, specifically my fresh leap into Skool (yep, spelled S-K-O-O-L). I talk about: The difference between busywork and needle-moving work. Why I left Facebook groups (and why I missed them). What Skool feels like compared to the “old Facebook days.” How I'm using theme days like Messy Monday and F*ck Yeah Friday to spark real conversation. The gamification element, from Silent Supporter to Nope Ninja, and why prizes make it fun. The deeper invitation: stop people-pleasing, stop performing, and start being unapologetically YOU! Whether you're curious about Skool, craving connection, or just need permission to step into your own Done Era, this episode will give you both laughs and a nudge to do things your way.

In an era where “understanding everyone's feelings” often replaces holding standards, Andrew and I unpack how good intentions can quietly corrupt outcomes. The conversation cuts through the noise of soft leadership to reveal a tougher truth: empathy without clarity creates confusion, resentment, and burnout.We trace how businesses drift from mission to maintenance, how leaders lose edge trying to be liked, and why clarity—not compassion—actually sustains culture. Andrew shares frameworks he's used to reintroduce accountability in teams that have “care fatigue,” where emotional overload blocks progress.This episode isn't anti-empathy. It's a reminder that empathy, like power, must be used with precision—or it turns toxic.TL;DR* Empathy becomes corruption when it excuses poor performance.* Great leaders balance compassion with consequence.* “Understanding” doesn't mean “accepting”—clarity builds trust faster.* Accountability is the highest form of respect.* Teams burn out when emotion replaces direction.* The fix: empathy guided by structure, not sentiment.Memorable Lines“Empathy without standards becomes permission for mediocrity.”“If you care about your people, hold them to the level they're capable of.”“Leaders don't lose teams by being firm—they lose them by being fuzzy.”“The real kindness is clarity.”GuestAndrew Oxley — Founder & Leadership Strategist, helping organizations rebuild cultures around accountability, clarity, and growth without sacrificing human connection.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-oxley-tog/Website: http://www.transformingresults.comWhy This MattersWe've mistaken comfort for care.

Years ago, I used to live by my to-do lists—checking boxes, chasing goals, and convincing myself that if I just tried harder, I'd finally feel accomplished. But no matter how much I achieved, something always felt off. I was exhausted, anxious, and constantly pushing for the next thing.In this episode, I share what I've learned since those burnout-fueled days—why trying harder eventually stops working and how your nervous system quietly decides when it's safe to move forward.We'll dive into the real reasons willpower fades, motivation dips, and self-sabotage sneaks in, even when you know what to do. You'll learn my RISE framework—Regulate, Identify, Select, and Encode—so you can start creating change that actually sticks.If you're ready to stop forcing your way forward and start rising with more ease, this conversation will feel like an exhale.

In this episode of This Daring Adventure, Master Life Coach Trista Guetin unpacks a real coaching conversation that reveals the surprising truth about anger — it's rarely about the situation in front of you.When one client felt furious after her cousin made burial decisions without consulting her, what seemed like a family dispute turned out to be something much deeper — unprocessed grief, regret, and a need for emotional closure.Trista walks you through what's really happening when you get triggered, why unresolved emotions resurface years later, and how to process anger in a way that brings peace instead of resentment.This episode is an invitation to stop letting your emotions run your life — and start understanding them instead.You'll learn:Why anger often hides deeper emotions like regret or powerlessnessHow to tell when your reaction is about now vs. the pastThe difference between surface-level problem solving and true emotional growthThe self-coaching shift that turns emotional reactivity into calm powerHow to use this same process to heal old wounds and stop recreating painful patternsIf you've ever been mad about something and later realized it wasn't really about that thing — this episode will help you see exactly why.✨ Want to go deeper?Join me inside You, Redefined — my coaching community and membership on SKOOL.It's where we take everything from the podcast and apply it to your real life — so you can stop spinning and start feeling in control again.You can try it free for 7 days, and right now, you can lock in the founding member rate of just $19/month for as long as you stay.

Most founders think ads are the only scalable way to grow. They aren't. Aiden shows how outbound, done right, can outperform paid social—no algorithms, no ad bans, no CPM spikes. The secret isn't “more hustle.” It's smarter tech: parallel dialing that filters bad data, avoids spam flags, and connects live calls 10x faster.We trace the fall of traditional cold calls (three live connections per hundred dials), the rise of AI limits under TCPA, and why Facebook ads have quietly become a treadmill of copy rewrites, rising costs, and bot clicks. Aiden's model flips the script—less burn, more control, and measurable consistency.Even more surprising: the next generation of inside sales agents aren't in Silicon Valley—they're Egyptian lawyers earning more cold-calling than in law. Global leverage meets old-school grit.This isn't nostalgia for boiler rooms. It's data-driven, tech-enabled human connection.TL;DR* “Cold calling is dead” is a myth—it just evolved with smarter tools.* Parallel dialers reach 700–800 numbers/hour with adaptive line control.* Real cost advantage: your time + dialer fee vs $10K ad testing cycles.* AI callers are banned under TCPA—human voice still wins trust.* Best ROI: trained inside sales agents + verified mobile data = predictable leads.* Bonus: outbound also builds partnerships, not just direct sales.Memorable lines“Cold calling isn't dead—it's just been automated, filtered, and reborn.”“You can't out-ad Facebook's algorithm, but you can out-call your competition.”“Consistency beats creativity when your pipeline depends on people.”“AI can't legally sell for you—but real humans still can.”GuestAiden Sowa — Founder & CEO of Zoto Dialer, building next-gen multi-dialing systems that balance pickup rate, compliance, and speed for sales teams worldwide.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aidansowa/Website: https://www.zotodialer.co/Why this mattersScaling isn't about finding the next hack—it's about control.Cold calling 2.0 delivers what ads can't: consistent reach, predictable costs, and direct conversations that build trust faster than clicks.

We trace why “bring your whole self to work” fell flat, how subtle detractor patterns (ignoring, courtesy code switching, email habits) silently erode trust, and why inclusion is less about demographics and more about everyday micro-behaviors. Kimberly makes it real: when team members only get replies if they CC the boss, people stop trying. When leaders say they value input but don't create safety, trust collapses.The surprise? Homogeneous teams with strong inclusion behaviors can outperform diverse ones without them. Inclusion isn't about who's at the table—it's whether voices matter once they're there.I push back on the myth of “leader angst”: making things better is the leader's job. Kimberly adds the missing truth: the biggest cost isn't money or time—it's the vulnerability of having real conversations with your team.This isn't theory. It's leadership on the line. And it's the difference between wasting hours in ignored emails versus amplifying effectiveness by 30% with no extra cost—just courage.TL;DR* Inclusion ≠ diversity quotas—it's behaviors that create belonging.* Five detractor patterns silently kill inclusion (ignoring, courtesy code switching, etc.).* Leaders can't outsource inclusion—HR can't carry this, only teams can.* Effectiveness jumps when small friction points (like ignored emails) get fixed.* The real cost: leaders must get vulnerable, confront team dynamics, and stay accountable.Memorable lines “No one wakes up in the morning saying, ‘I hope I'm excluded today.'” “Courtesy code switching sounds respectful—but it actually silences voices.” “Making things better is literally the leader's job. Otherwise, a bot could replace you.” “Inclusion isn't a social program—it's how you answer your team's emails.”Guest Kimberly Lewis Parsons — Founder & CEO of Bamboo Teaming; expert in inclusive teaming, executive team coaching, and shifting leaders from ineffective habits to productive collaboration.

We start with a simple truth: if something triggers you, it owns you. From marriages strained by defensiveness, to children calling out their father's lack of emotional intelligence, Chad shows how unchecked reactions erode trust, respect, and legacy.His own turning point came when his son told him he had “zero emotional intelligence.” Instead of firing back, Chad began the slow work of asking why every sharp word stung—and what it revealed about his need for respect, affirmation, and value.We explore how men often hide behind discipline, how protection and fear shape family dynamics, and why “being open” is useless if you don't create a safe environment for truth. The conversation turns personal—broken trust, blended families, strokes, and the moment Chad realized decades of construction projects weren't a legacy if his family couldn't stand him.The fix isn't perfection. It's self-awareness. Triggers are symptoms. And the healing comes when you let the people you've hurt tell you the truth—and you listen.TL;DR* Triggers own you until you own them.* Overreactions reveal insecurity, not reality.* Emotional intelligence starts with self-awareness, not slogans.* Legacy is people, not projects.* Leaders (and fathers) go first—healing is contagious.Memorable lines “Anything that triggers you is telling you more about yourself than the other person.” “Legacy isn't bridges or hotels—it's your kids wanting to talk to you.” “If you don't create a safe environment, your ‘openness' is just virtue signaling.”Guest Chad Brignac — Transformationalist consultant, speaker, and author of Blend Don't Break, focused on self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and healing through small shifts.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/chadmbrignac/Why this matters Whether at work or at home, unchecked triggers destroy trust.

Right now, companies are leaning hard on AI—sometimes instead of people. Engagement is tanking, anxiety is spiking, and most leaders have no playbook. We unpack why workers sneak AI into their jobs, how silence from the top fuels fear, and why “pizza parties” don't solve the fulfillment gap.The real story: engagement ≠ purpose. People want meaning, not slogans. And AI, like an Ivy League intern, can't deliver that alone. Leaders need to connect tools, people, and mission—or risk losing their best talent.TL;DR* AI intern: smart but needs human guidance.* Engagement ≠ fulfillment: employees want purpose, not perks.* Fear gap: no AI policy = employees assume worst.* Work-life is merging: productivity ≠ meaning.* Future leaders: integrators who connect tech + humanity.Memorable lines “AI is like having an Ivy League intern—smart, fast, but still an intern.” “Engagement is attention. Fulfillment is purpose. Don't confuse the two.” “If leaders don't talk about AI, employees will imagine the worst.”GuestJaime Raul Zepeda — CEO, Best Companies Group; 15 years studying engagement; former VP at Great Place to Work.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jaimezepeda/Website: https://jaimeraulzepeda.com/Why this matters To thrive in the AI era, companies must design for reality: clear AI policies, honest leadership, and cultures where people find meaning—not just a paycheck.Call to ActionIf this conversation lit something up for you, don't just let it fade.

Over the past few years, I've heard several people suggest that "blogging is dead." However, one of my favorite coaching clients earns her primary income from her blog and also hosts retreats and an annual conference for an entire community of food bloggers who earn an income from their blogging efforts. So I invited my client, Megan Porta, and asked her the question, "Can you still make money blogging in 2025?" Short answer: Yes. It's doable. It looks different than it did a decade ago. It requires real passion, patience, and a focus on what serves readers right now. Below are thorough show notes to meet you exactly where you are. If you want to start or revive a blog as a real income stream, these notes double as a step-by-step primer. What This Episode Covers Why blogging still pays when you pair patience with passion Megan has seen brand-new bloggers “crushing it.” The difference now is you cannot fake it. Your readers and Google both know when you do. Authenticity wins. The fastest realistic path to first income Join a quality ad network once your traffic qualifies. We name the two big players and their current thresholds. We also discuss why Google SEO and Pinterest are still the two traffic pillars that move the needle. Niching way down to win Broad “everything” blogs struggle today. Specific sub-niches serve specific people and get rewarded. Think “vegan cakes” instead of “vegan.” The love for your topic has to show up in every post. The collaboration playbook for early momentum Smart email list swaps. Contributing value inside the right Facebook groups without spamming. How one helpful post can put a niche creator “on the map” in months. Income beyond ads Digital products. Memberships. Sponsorships. How to think about affiliate income post-HCU and what still works if you are selective. Platform and tech choices that save you pain Why WordPress.org with solid hosting is still the move. Why a VPS and proactive security matter. Real-world cautionary tales about updates, backups, and malware. Key Takeaways and Insights 1) Yes, you can still get paid to blog. The bar is higher. If you bring patience and genuine expertise, you can absolutely build an income today. People starting in the last year or two are succeeding. The difference is the landscape. Authenticity and user value must drive your strategy. 2) Niche inside the niche Winning examples are laser-specific. Pick a tight segment of a larger category, then become unmistakably helpful to that reader. This is how you break through and build trust. 3) Traffic plan: SEO and Pinterest first To qualify for premium ad networks, prioritize traffic that comes from search and Pinterest. Current thresholds discussed in the episode: Mediavine at roughly 50,000 sessions per month and Raptive at roughly 100,000 pageviews per month. Build to those numbers, then let ad RPMs start compounding. 4) Collaboration without spam Use email list collaborations. Show up consistently inside large, topic-relevant Facebook groups. Earn trust by answering questions with real substance. This moves traffic quickly when your niche is dialed in. 5) Create on-topic, helpful content Google's Helpful Content updates pushed bloggers to stay tightly aligned with user intent. Keep posts on point for your niche. Tangential personal stories and off-topic content dilute perceived expertise and can hurt discoverability. 6) Monetization mix that works in 2025 Display Ads once you hit network thresholds. This becomes semi-passive as your library grows. Digital Products as quick wins: ebooks, guides, weekly prep plans. These are simple to produce and match your audience's immediate needs. Memberships if your audience is invested. Price points in food niches commonly range from about 5 to 20 dollars per month, often for ad-free experiences or exclusive content. Tech options include WordPress setups and hosted communities such as Circle, Skool, Slack, Discord, Mighty Networks, and niche tools like Member Kitchens. Sponsorships when you can articulate your audience's value. Niche reach can beat raw follower counts if you understand a sponsor's acquisition economics and lifetime value. Affiliate Income is trickier after recent updates. It can still work at higher commissions or with premium offers. Treat it as a supplemental play, not your core plan. 7) Stack the tech in your favor Choose WordPress.org for full control, proven SEO flexibility, and extensibility. Invest in good hosting. A VPS with strong uptime guarantees is worth it. Expect to pay roughly 89 to 150 dollars per month for reliability that protects your revenue. Treat security and backups as non-negotiables. Plugins and themes require regular updates. Malware exploits often come from simple neglect. Have a pro who can restore fast. This avoids losing days or weeks or years of content. Practical Playbook Phase 1. Choose a narrow niche and validate demand List ten posts your ideal reader would save today. Ensure all are tightly aligned with one outcome your niche cares about. Keep stories and extras on-topic so Google sees topical authority. Phase 2. Protect the asset Run WordPress.org on a reliable VPS and keep everything updated. Assign backups and security to a pro so you do not risk outages or data loss. Phase 3. Build a traffic engine Publish high-quality posts that answer exact questions your audience asks. Optimize for search and create Pinterest assets for each post. Aim for Mediavine or Raptive thresholds to unlock ad revenue. Phase 4. Accelerate through collaboration Join large, relevant Facebook groups. Contribute substantial answers that stand on their own. Start tasteful email list collaborations for quick, qualified traffic. Phase 5. Layer monetization Add an easy digital product that solves a specific use case. Test a simple membership once engagement is strong. Pitch sponsors when you can quantify your audience's fit and value.

Most leaders think they're setting the tone—but often, it's someone else. Matt breaks down how to identify the real influencers in the room, recognize subtle shifts, and build a repeatable process for situational mastery.From his decades in sports medicine and leadership research, Matt shows how the same tools used to train Olympic athletes apply to executives, dads, and anyone navigating high-stakes conversations.TL;DR* Situational mastery ≠ luck: it's about recognizing, reordering, responding, and reflecting (the R4 framework).* Invisible cues rule the room: deep sighs, eye rolls, micro-pauses—miss these and you miss the moment.* Leaders aren't always the influencers: figure out who others look to for cues, and win them as allies.* Tacit knowledge = wisdom: mastery comes from integrating hindsight, insight, and foresight (3D thinking).* The pace of change breaks hindsight: you can't solve today's problems with yesterday's logic—blend past, present, and future.* No solo mastery: like Dickens' Scrooge, you need “ghosts” (mentors, coaches, truth-tellers) to correct blind spots.Memorable lines* “The metrics of success shift every time the room shifts.”* “Most leaders think they're setting the tone—usually, they're not.”* “Tacit knowledge is intuition you can trust, and it can be learned.”* “You can't solve today's problems with yesterday's logic.”* “Every leader needs to know their Kissinger in the room.”GuestMatt Kutz, PhD — Professor of Sports Medicine & Athletic Training; VP of the World Federation of Athletic Training and Therapy; author of 8+ books on leadership, human performance, and global strategy.LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drmattkutz/Website: http://www.matthewkutz.comWhy this mattersLeaders today operate in a VUCA world—volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous. Titles don't guarantee influence, and old playbooks don't work. Contextual intelligence bridges the gap between knowing and being: it's not just about logic or intuition, but the fusion of both in real time.If you want to lead effectively—whether in boardrooms, classrooms, or family rooms—you need the ability to read the invisible cues, reframe priorities on the fly, and adapt without losing credibility.Call to ActionIf this conversation lit something up for you, don't just let it fade.
