What if the real growth strategy isn't finding your niche, but finding yourself? I joined Rodric Lenhart on the Million Dollar Flip Flops podcast to talk about something I believe most business owners get backwards: we rush to pick a niche before we've figured out who we are. As the founder of brandiD (a personal branding and web agency) and MyPath101 (a self-discovery platform for students), I've spent the last 15+ years helping people uncover the story behind their work so they can grow businesses that reflect who they really are. Why Self-Awareness Comes Before Strategy In the episode, I share why real growth starts with identity. If you don't know your values, strengths, and goals, it's easy to build a brand that looks good on the outside but feels off underneath. When you lead with self-awareness, everything, from your message to your business model, becomes more aligned, more intentional, and more fulfilling. How to Fix a Website That's Not Working We also get into the biggest mistakes I see on DIY websites: too much “me,” not enough “you.” Your homepage has one job: to connect with the person on the other side of the screen. I break down how to write website copy that speaks to your audience, builds trust, and moves them toward action. Enjoy this episode… Soundbytes 17:01 - 17:24 “One thing I see going wrong is people start on their homepage by talking about themselves, and they really need to talk about or speak to their client, or at least speak to the pain of their client, and what their potential client might find in working with them, or why they should work with them. So you've got to answer that question at the very top of the page, so you can hook somebody in to want to read to the bottom of the page.” 13:15 - 13:23 “I am a big believer that strategy without implementation leads nowhere, just like implementation without strategy leads nowhere.” 14:12 - 14:19 “People are savvy, they want to know who they're buying from, you know? They want to know what that person stands for, even if it's a really large company.” Quotes “Anything is possible if you really put your mind to it.” “Just take time to pause once in a while in life and think about what's really fulfilling you and what's not fulfilling you.” “We all have choices in life–to live reactively or intentionally. And I think the more intentional we can be, the more satisfying life is.” Links mentioned in this episode: Connect with brandiD Easy Tips to Adjust your website: https://buildmybrandid.com/website-tweaks/ Personality Quiz: https://content.leadquizzes.com/lp/jqgbMsr00g  Ready to elevate your digital presence with a powerful brand or website?

Bob Moats and Mike Wiemuth are joined by Dr. Galen Clavio and former IU Student Body President Cooper Tinsley to explore how the bison mascot made its return to Indiana University.A Historic Recording Setup[00:00-05:00]A first for the show - recording with Cooper calling in from Paris during his study abroad. Cooper served as IU's 77th Student Body President after transferring from Alabama, where he only lasted one semester before realizing IU was where he belonged.Cooper's Path to Student Leadership[05:00-15:00]Cooper walked through his journey from Alabama transfer to student government leader, explaining how communication (or lack thereof) was often the biggest challenge in student government. His presidency was notably successful with unusually good cooperation between the executive and congressional branches.How the Bison Movement Started[15:00-25:00]The perfect storm began in fall 2024 when IU football's incredible season created unprecedented campus unity. Cooper had a conversation with Athletics Director Scott Dolson about how football was bringing students together like nothing had in years. Learning that the original bison mascot came from student government action in the 1960s, Cooper decided to follow that historical playbook.Galen's Years-Long Campaign[25:00-35:00]Galen explained how multiple groups had been working toward this goal independently:Homefield Apparel's bison merchandise starting around 2015-2016Professor Paul Gutar's grassroots campaign with merchandiseGalen's "Bring Back the Bison" advocacy on Crimson CastAthletics department's growing interestAll these efforts converged at exactly the right time.The Student Government Battle[35:00-45:00]What Cooper thought would be a quick, fun vote turned into a three-hour debate lasting until midnight. The main opposition centered around fears of bringing back the original 1960s costume, which everyone agreed was genuinely terrifying. Cooper's brilliant move: posting an Instagram poll during the meeting that got 750+ responses in three minutes, with 70-80% student support.Making the Case for Skeptics[45:00-55:00]Galen laid out the three-part argument for the bison:Historical connection to Indiana (bison territory, Buffalo Trace, state seal)Gives the "Hoosier" name a visual identity it's always lackedCommercial necessity - most successful college programs have mascotsThe Bigger Picture[55:00-End]Cooper shared how Alabama integrated their mascot into the entire university experience, not just sports.The group discussed how the bison could serve multiple generations - from young kids meeting the mascot to alumni having a consistent symbol to rally around. Galen reflected that if contributing to bringing back the bison is his main legacy at IU, he'd be satisfied with that impact.

In this episode, Lisa, Keith, and Tejas discuss:The value of student-led experiences and internships for your teen. Building teen confidence, developing professional skills while still in high school, and using experiences to gain clarity about future careers.The importance of your student getting involved in extracurriculars early in high school. How to DIY opportunities through school-business partnerships for your teen.Key Takeaways: During your student's freshman year, let them get used to the rigors of high school and encourage them to figure out how they want to get involved at school. Confidence is a skill your teen will build through practice and pushing themself outside their comfort zone. The more your teen stretches, the more their confidence will grow.Sometimes, an internship will confirm that the path is the right fit for your teen. But even if they find it is not the right fit, that is equally valuable.As proficiency increases, passion also tends to increase in equal measure. Passion can grow with proficiency. “It is really valuable for the student as a person and pushing them outside their boundaries and getting uncomfortable and all those things. But it's also valuable for the resume, the application, and building those experiences that make you who you are, and you can find those wherever you are.” – Keith KoehneAbout Keith Koehne: Keith Koehne has always wanted to have the greatest impact on the greatest number of students possible. He has a passion for leadership and connecting education with business leaders for the benefit of students. He is honored to serve as the Executive Director of the INTERalliance of Greater Cincinnati, whose mission is to fill the regional IT talent pipeline by inspiring, developing, and retaining exceptional high school students.Episode References:Tips for Sending Student Emails that Get a Reply: https://flourishcoachingco.com/email Get Lisa's Free on-demand video: How-to guide for your teen to choose the right major, college, & career...(without painting themselves into a corner, missing crucial deadlines, or risking choices you both regret). flourishcoachingco.com/video Connect with INTERalliance:Website: https://interalliance.org/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-interalliance-of-greater-cincinnati/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/interalliancegc/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/interalliance/ Mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@interalliancegc/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/interalliance.org Connect with Lisa:Website: https://www.flourishcoachingco.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@flourishcoachingcoInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/flourishcoachingco/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/flourish-coaching-co

Medical school is so demanding that it's always impressive to meet students who make time for other activities, and doubly impressive when what they devote their precious free time to is intended to improve healthcare.  That's why we're delighted to welcome Drs. Lawsen Parker, Rebecca Wolff and Stephanie Koplitz to Raise the Line today.  As they were wrapping up their terms as leaders of the Student Osteopathic Medical Association this Spring, they joined host Hillary Acer for an inspiring conversation about medical education, the role of students as advocates, and the future of healthcare.
