Becca Brown is a Harvard graduate who worked her way up the ladder at Goldman Sachs, eventually landing a Chief of Staff position in London. Then she left it all behind. Today, Becca is the co-founder of SoleMates shoe and foot care products, along with former classmate and Goldman Sachs colleague Monica Ferguson. They pitched their flagship product, the SoleMates High Heel Protector that keeps heels from sinking into grass or getting stuck in grates or cracks, on Season 8, Episode 4 of Shark Tank and hooked a deal with Robert Herjavec. Although Becca and her partner were already very experienced businesswomen, they took extra steps to ensure a successful pitch on the show. They hired a formal media trainer to help them with a game plan, key talking points, and how to thoroughly answer questions while guiding all conversations back to the key points they wanted to convey. They also held rapid-fire Q&A sessions with their team a few days a week for months before their appearance on the show. "Know your message, know how you want to communicate it, and keep reinforcing it" is one of Becca's best pieces of advice, but she stresses that without authenticity, it will all fall flat. Be sure to check out this episode of my Lessons From The Tank podcast for more business wisdom from Becca. Today SoleMates are carried in Nordstrom, DSW, and David's Bridal stores worldwide and on major e-commerce sites like Amazon and Zappos. Celebrities such as Oprah, Viola Davis, and Carrie Underwood are happy SoleMates customers!

Our society tells us that we are supposed to look, act, and be a certain way. But the reality is that a majority of us do not fit into those ideal molds. And half of the people that do, are faking it. Stacy Sorgen has been a health and fitness professional for well over a decade, and she does not fit the mold. She had to carve her own path in one of the most judgmental industries there is. Join us for a conversation about how she fought back against expectations in order to help others live their best lives.   Connect with Stacey:  Website: https://staceysorgencoaching.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/staceysorgencoaching/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/modbodyfitness/ Email: Stacey@staceysorgencoaching.com  Strength Camp: https://staceysorgencoaching.com/strength-camp/  Schedule with Stacey: https://www.schedulicity.com/scheduling/MFMHU4/services  Connect to Genea: Website: http://geneabarnes.com/ Book a Call with Genea: https://bookacallwithgenea.com/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/geneabarnes/  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@geneabarnes   From Stacey: I am an HAES-aligned American College of Sports Medicine Certified Personal Trainer with 12+ years of training experience. I've taught mat-based Pilates, Spin, CoreMania, Silver Sneakers, Adaptive Strength Training, Yoga, Total Body Conditioning, Bootcamps, etc. I work with many organizations, and have taught onsite and online corporate classes at Google, Adobe, Davis Wright Tremaine, McKinstry, EXOS, Fremont Athletic Club, and more. I've coached runners for 15+ years and served as Head Coach for SoleMates for GOTRPS for 5 years. I hold Yoga Teacher Certification RYT200 (2015), STOTT Pilates Mat-based practice training (2010), and a certification as a Holistic Health Coach from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (2013). I completed the 9 month Body Trust Project: School for Unlearning in 2021 and the Promoting Body Trust in Your Work for Practitioners in 2022, both hosted by Be Nourished. I'm dedicated to creating an environment for movement that is equitable, accessible, and diverse. Social justice is paramount and I strive to continue growing in my ability to be of service and support to groups traditionally excluded by the diet/wellness industrial complex. I recently completed a 3 workshop program with Dianne Bondy and Amber Karen's with “Yoga For All” on the topics of implicit bias in movement spaces, using trauma-informed language to create affirming spaces, and adapting Yoga asana for all bodies. In July 2022 I successfully completed a 9 month Process-Oriented Facilitation (somatic interventions) program led by David Bedrick, JD, Dipl PW. Most recently I completed EXOS education's course, “The Applied Neuroscience of Peak Performance”. I'm currently pursuing the GGS-1 Women's Coaching Specialist Certification with additional study regarding movement and PCOS, strength training specific to Menopause, and pre/post-natal considerations for movement. When it comes down to it, I'm really just a queer, anxious, fat cis woman who grew up in a suburb of Chicago. I now live in Seattle, WA with my incredibly patient and kind wife of 12 years (almost 13 years) and our 3 dogs; Oliver (Boxador), Pumpkin (Italian Greyhound/Chihuaua), and Emmie (Chihuahua). Would you believe me if I told you that my wife and I met on Craigslist? Lol. I looooove live music, random acts of kindness, paddle boarding on Lake Washington, and cozy nights watching some sort of trashy television. I love movement in many different forms and I do the work that I do because I'm passionate about it – and I love to use that passion for movement to support others. I love triathlons, a really good slice of pizza, saying hello to every dog I meet – ever, and reading trashy books on the beach.

128 | Becca Brown Teaches Us to Serve Pizza with Our Sales Pitch Does your pitch ever feel like it’s falling flat? Becca Brown, the cofounder of Solemates, a brand of footwear solutions and accessories. Known for their flagship product that was featured on Shark Tank (a patented high heel cap that prevents high heels from sinking into grass and getting damaged), they make products that make you more comfortable in your shoes.  Solemates was born out of personal necessity - they were tired of ruining their shoes! Becca has a passion for entrepreneurship and loves supporting other aspiring entrepreneurs achieve their dreams. Have you ever watched the movie Hitch? I don’t watch a lot of TV, but I do love movies! I was recently on a plane and ended up watching Hitch. In this movie, Will Smith stars as a dating coach.  One of his clients wants to get the attention of the woman he likes and calls on Hitch to help. Together, they study the woman: what does she like? What is important to her? What will speak to her? Hitch isn’t there to make them fall in love. If you could call a relationship a fire, Hitch was the one to help them find that spark, to know if it truly would catch. The research that Hitch and his clients did helped them to be able to light that spark and see what would happen. As we’re pitching investors, customers, and brands, we need to find how to light that spark, and sometimes, it requires an extra level of creativity. This week’s guest on Success Unfiltered, Becca Brown, is the co-founder of Solemates, a line of shoe accessories specifically designed to keep high heels from sinking into the grass. When Becca was exploring creative ways to be carried in David’s Bridal, she ended up catching the approval of Oprah instead! How did she get their attention? You’ll have to listen to find out! HINT! It has to do with Pizza! Be inspired to think outside the box when you connect with your ideal clients: make sure that you tune into this episode of Success Unfiltered to learn new ways and ideas to connect!

Get on that elevator with confidence and tell the world what you do with style. Grab my FREE Guide 3 Steps To ROCK Your Pitch (And Get More Sales)! Here are a few key secrets we talked about in this episode: Michelle introduces Becca Brown, Shark Tank vet of the month. Becca describes Solemates, her brand of shoe accessories to help keep high heels from sinking when walking on grass. Becca and her business partner, Monica, came up with the idea when at Columbia Business School. For a class project, they presented the idea and the business plan. The retail expert giving feedback said that NO one would be interested in putting an ugly piece of plastic on a high heel.  It was hurtful and disappointing to hear that, especially at the beginning of their entrepreneurial journey, but Becca and Monica decided to turn that NO into fuel to keep themselves going! “To offset disappointment, go back to basics. Figure out what things you can take personal satisfaction and confidence off of on a daily basis. It sounds cliche, but know yourself.” ~ Becca Brown “Knowing yourself doesn’t make you bulletproof against rejections because you’re human. It just gives you the tools to be able to get back to that confident base.”  ~ Becca Brown Becca shares about her Shark Tank experience, and how it was surprising that the first Shark to say NO was the woman who wore high heels. Preparation was the key to staying calm and cool and collected in the face of rejection. Becca and Monica took media training before they appeared on Shark Tank: the goal was to learn how to be calm when uncomfortable, and they were equipped to handle whatever came their way. One particular key point was to be mindful of facial expressions, especially their resting expression. Some of the first customers of Solemates were bridal boutiques. They had their sights set on David’s Bridal, but it was difficult to get into stores like David’s Bridal.  They had to come up with a persuasive sales pitch to get the attention of David’s Bridal, so they sought out bridal shows, other retailers, and “confidence builders.” Every situation requires a different approach, Becca shares. In order to stand out, you can’t use a one size fits all way of doing things. Don’t be afraid to use common interests to connect: if you wanted to connect with Becca, you’d want to talk about cycling because she shares so much about her love for cycling.

Born to a Nigerian father and Ivorian mother in Guymon, Oklahoma, Gladys Edeh has always been a lover of the arts right from the age of 13. Her love affair for film blossomed after watching the 1980’s movie classic, "The God's Must be Crazy" with her dad. Her dream was to attend film school and begin her life as a filmmaker, but her father had other plans and wanted her to pursue a degree that would provide better job prospects. She moved from Kano State, Nigeria to Atlanta, GA in 1995 and attained a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Information Systems with a minor in Film Studies at Kennesaw State University. Upon graduation, even though she worked in IT full time, she became an active member of the film community in the Atlanta area and participated in every film or video project she could find and performed in several roles such as a boom operator, background actor, production coordinator., production manager, etc. But in 2008, she formed KokoAtDawn Productions and produced her very first short film, ‘But Mamah’ which was screened at the Landmark Midtown Art Cinema in Atlanta, GA during the 48 Hour Film Project that year. In 2009, the film got selected to be part of the ION Film Festival which was hosted in Port Harcourt, Nigeria.   In subsequent years, she went on to produce fictional short films such as A Day in A Life, Go Fish, Lost Memory and Solemates. In 2012, she began to focus more on the documentary style of filmmaking which led to her directing, producing, filming and editing short form content for the web. This led to opportunities to capture celebrities such as Afrobeats singer and songwriter Lagbaja, AfroJazz/Folk Soul artist, Tosinger, British-Nigerian actor Wale Ojo, and Deyemi Okanlawon, a Nollywood Actor, and a host of other artists. Her latest short film, Mr. Gele: The Man.The Story.The Craft gave her access to profile the talented African headgear mastermind, Mr. Hakeem Oluwasegun Olaleye, also referred to as Segun Gele. “Mr. Gele” which is currently in the film festival circuit has been an official selection in the Sidewalk Film Festival, Cleveland Film Festival, African World Film Festival, CineOdyssey Film Festival, African New York Film Festival and the BronzeLens Film Festival where it received a nomination for Best Short in the Short Documentary category. It is also now airing on the Africa's first Global Black Entertainment & Lifestyle network, EbonyLife TV to over 49 countries in Africa.   As a filmmaker with an African heritage, one of her goals is to produce documentaries that showcase the multifaceted lifestyles and untold stories of Africans living in the diaspora. Her films are meant to capture, celebrate and share these stories that normally do not get the light of day on the global stage. She is currently working on creating a 13-episode documentary TV series, a fictional short film and a feature documentary. Gladys Edeh has been a resident of Atlanta, Georgia for over 20 years and currently lives with her husband and two kids.

Jim and Cheryl Brown talk about middle-aged running, running after hip resurfacing surgery, and their running evolution. The Browns gave Kari the gift of running in 2011, and they're sure to inspire you too. Jim, the featured Runner of the Week, offers advice for new runners. Mike Clarke pops in to chat about Can'd Aid and Operation ReConnect, and Serena Marie, RD, talks about carageenan (red seaweed). Jim and Cheryl Brown Jim and Cheryl Brown inspire each other to overcome injury and age to continue their love of running. Through The Running Lifestyle Show's suggestions, they've found new ways to keep on running. Discover how Cheryl (Episodes 37 and 50) didn't start running until about a year after Jim ran his first half marathon, and both were in their late 40s. Find out why Cheryl started running and how she started with the run-walk method. Learn about Marathon in Training that sparked their interest in marathons. Hear about the three marathons they ran as charity runners (for groups like the American Cancer Society and SoleMates). Find out why Cheryl started doing Spartan Races. Learn how they've had to evolve (in order to run safely without injuries) and have learned their limits—since they want to always be able to run. Discover how they both became injured (Cheryl was put on physical therapy; Jim was told he had to have hip replacement surgery). Find out why it was like a reset button for both of them to go from frequently running to being restricted. Learn how they got back into running (using 4-1 intervals). Discover why they changed their fueling strategies. Hear why they urge runners not to be afraid to play around with fuel and different running strategies. Learn a key strategy so that you don't start off a race too fast during a race. Hear about their experience with the Hot Chocolate 15K. They performed nearly the same post-injury, so tune in to learn how! Find out about their upcoming races like the Soldier Field 10 Mile together, and Cheryl is running the Tinkerbell Half Marathon with their daughter, Amanda, who uses the run-walk method. Runner of the Week Jim Brown, who went through hip resurfacing surgery, talks about the part of running that speaks to him, advice for new runners, and his first half marathon experience. Jim started running during his time in the Marine Corps (where running equaled pain and punishment for him). After fifteen years of not running, he was overweight and needed to take control of his life. He lost weight and was invited to run a half marathon. He had never run more than three miles, so this was a new challenge for him. He downloaded Hal Higdon's Half Marathon Novice 2 program and started training. The night before his first half, his friend Scott Johnson offered to help support him during the race. Jim offers advice for someone who's thinking about running or who has just started running. This week's Runner of the Week is sponsored by Sports Suds. Are your clothes sweaty and stinky?

Serena Marie, RD Serena myth busts carageenan and dishes up some scientific research. Hear what carageenan (red seaweed) is used for and why Serena thinks it's nothing to freak out about. Learn why Serena questions animal studies' validity that suggest that carageenan may contribute to high blood sugar, which can lead to diabetes, stroke, and cardiovascular disease. Discover why one study using human colon cells suggest that carageenan may turn on genes that may lead to irritable bowel disease (for people who are predisposed).
