Podcasts about Success

Sinners has already broken records — it's the most Oscar-nominated film in the history of the Academy Awards. But is the movie itself actually historic? And what will its success mean for the future of Black filmmaking? This week, we're joined by Aisha Harris, a host of NPR's Pop Culture Happy Hour, and NY Mag film critic Angelica Jade Bastién. We get into what we loved, what we hated, and how Sinners fits into the broader landscape of big, splashy films that are beloved...yet never quite seem to move the needle on how Hollywood greenlights and funds future projects.To manage podcast ad preferences, review the links below:See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Why does that voice in your head wake you up at 3:00 AM telling you that everything's terrible? Why do we get stuck overthinking and feel anxious, angry, guilty, shameful, or even envious? There actually is a productive reason. I dug into the research and that voice and negative emotion might actually be good for us, if we use them correctly. I invited the world's leading expert on controlling your thoughts and emotions, Dr. Ethan Kross, to give us tools we can use today to feel better.

Are you ready to turn your greatest setbacks into the fuel for exponential growth? In this week's episode, John Maxwell unpacks how the partnership between success and failure is essential to leadership—and why your perspective on failure determines your path to achievement. After his lesson, Mark Cole and Chris Goede provide real-world strategies you can use right away to embrace failure as a catalyst for learning and growth. Key takeaways:  How you view failure shapes your response to it—and seeing it as part of success unlocks growth, humility, and maturity.  Successful leaders don't just make good decisions; they learn to manage both their wins and their losses to maximize impact.  The lessons you take from failure are what propel you forward—if you don't lose the lesson, you never truly lose. Our BONUS resource for this episode is the Success and Failure: The Partnership that Fuels Growth Worksheet, which includes fill-in-the-blank notes from John's teaching. You can download the worksheet by visiting MaxwellPodcast.com/Partnership and clicking "Download the Bonus Resource."

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Todd Kroupa A former firefighter turned top-producing real estate agent in Georgia. Todd explains his journey from a physically demanding fire department career to becoming a highly successful real estate broker, team leader, and luxury/equestrian property specialist. The conversation walks through: His transition from the fire service to real estate Opening and managing a 400‑agent office in Florida Relocating to Georgia and re-establishing his business How he advises both first-time homebuyers and experienced sellers Emotional decision-making in buying and selling Inspections, deal-breakers, and buyer/seller behavior Multi-generational housing trends post‑COVID Why real estate remains a wealth-building tool Advice for navigating neighborhoods, schools, and due diligence His eventual ranking as #1 single agent for Berkshire Hathaway in Georgia (2024–2025) Todd emphasizes integrity, long-term relationships, and guiding clients toward the right house — not just closing a deal. Purpose of the Interview The purpose of Todd Kroupa’s appearance is to: Share a motivational career-change story — moving from firefighter to top real estate agent. Educate listeners on the real estate process — including buying, selling, inspections, and market strategy. Give practical tips for first-time homebuyers, families, and multi-generational households. Promote best practices for choosing neighborhoods, navigating emotion in home buying, and avoiding pitfalls. Highlight Todd’s success and position him as a trusted resource for Georgia real estate clients. Key Takeaways 1. Career Transition & Motivation Todd became a firefighter in 1992, retired in 2014, and began real estate in 2002. Real estate appealed to him because it allowed him to continue helping people without the physical strain. He built and managed a 400-agent office before returning to working directly with clients — his true passion. 2. Balancing Firefighting and Real Estate He often worked both jobs full-time, with limited days off. Eventually, maintaining both became impossible: “I can’t do this anymore,” he told his wife. 3. Buyer Advice Buyers make decisions emotionally first, then logically. Within the first 3–5 minutes in a home, buyers often know if they like it. Lighting, paint color, home condition, and layout heavily influence emotional response. First-time buyers need extra guidance — like “teaching someone to drive for the first time.” 4. Seller Advice Selling isn’t just about market timing — presentation matters. Neutral paint colors and bright white lighting help increase buyer appeal. Every showing is won or lost in the first few minutes. 5. Inspections Matter — and Are Deal Breakers Top inspection walk‑aways: Mold Foundation issues Roof problemsTodd stresses that if a buyer is uncomfortable before closing, “you won’t be comfortable after you close.” 6. Emotion vs. Logic Many buyers get emotionally attached and ignore red flags. Todd’s rule: commissions should never drive decisions. 7. Multi-Generational Living Is Rising Driven by COVID, high child-care costs, rising home prices. Families are choosing: ADUs (Accessory Dwelling Units) “In-law suites” Larger family compounds 8. Real Estate as a Wealth Builder Unlike stock investments, real estate allows you to: Control, improve, alter, and live in the asset. Tax advantages like 1031 exchanges and mortgage deductions compound long-term value. 9. Don’t Buy the Most Expensive House in the Neighborhood Surrounding homes cap your resale value. You may have to wait years for nearby homes to “catch up.” 10. Neighborhood Due Diligence Realtors must avoid discrimination (Fair Housing Act). Buyers should: Visit neighborhoods at night and on weekends Speak with neighbors Review school ratings and county resources Notable Quotes (from the transcript) Career & Purpose “I love helping people. That’s why I became a fireman. Real estate was another way to help people.” “I wasn’t quite sure I wanted to manage long term… my heart was with clients.” Ethics & Commission “Commissions should never be above the people.” “If you’re focused on commissions, you need to pick a different industry.” Emotions in Home Buying “Buyers think they’re looking logically, but they’re looking emotionally first.” “Within the first 3–5 minutes, they already know if they like the home.” Inspections “If you’re not comfortable with the property now, you won’t be comfortable after you close.” Neighborhood Choice “Focus on the house, but look at the neighborhood — you can’t change your neighbors.” Wealth Building “With stocks you can’t control it, improve it, or live in it. With a home, you can.” Success & Determination “Someone told me when I moved to Georgia I wasn’t going to make it. Now I’m the number one salesperson in Georgia.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What does it look like to bet on yourself, embrace reinvention, and build a YouTube channel that reaches millions?Michelle Khare is the creator and host of Challenge Accepted, the award-winning YouTube series where sherains with elite performers, athletes, and professionals to take on some of the world's toughest stunts and professions. But this conversation goes far beyond spectacle. It's about the psychology underneath the performance: how Michelle prepares for high-pressure environments, how she thinks about failure, and how she's built a serious creative business without losing the joy at the center of it. In this conversation, Michelle shares how her path began at the intersection of two demanding worlds: working as a video producer by day while competing as a professional cyclist at night. Out of that tension, she created something new — a format that blends physical challenge, storytelling, and deep iteration. She talks about the early trial-and-error phase of building her channel, the importance of owning her own IP, and why many creators don't realize they've already become entrepreneurs. Michelle also opens up about what it means to fail in public. She explains why growth often depends on being willing to look unpolished in front of other people, how she identifies her “strategic advantages” in unfamiliar environments, and why the low points — not just the polished outcomes — are what actually make a story worth telling. Along the way, she offers a compelling look at how she built a YouTube channel with over 5.4 million loyal subscribers. In this conversation, we explore:Why courage becomes more useful when it is systematizedHow Michelle built Challenge Accepted by blending athletics, storytelling, and businessWhy willingness to fail publicly can become a competitive advantageHow to identify your “strategic advantages” in unfamiliar environmentsWhy relationships, feedback, and team culture are essential to longevityHow to elevate the YouTube creator space into a respected part of the entertainment industryThis is a conversation about courage, yes, but also about design. How do you build a life where courage is not occasional, but trainable? How do you stay ambitious without burning out? And how you can keep evolving while staying grounded in the people and principles that matter most.__________________________________Links & ResourcesSubscribe to our Youtube Channel for more conversations at the intersection of high performance, leadership, and wellbeing: https://www.youtube.com/c/FindingMasteryGet exclusive discounts and support our amazing sponsors!

Ambition looks different for every woman. In this episode, we dive into the questions ambitious women ask themselves to define success on their own terms. Whether you're navigating leadership challenges as a woman leader or redefining your personal growth journey, these self-reflection prompts will help you clarify what ambition means to you in this season and set goals that actually align with your current life. This is also a chance for you to identify who your ambition serves and whether or not your current ambition actually serves YOU or not. While women talk a lot about how to be ambitious, we don't talk nearly enough about how to be ambitious in a way that feels personally aligned and sustainable. In this conversation, I unpack the quiet, powerful habits of ambitious women - the ones that often go unnoticed, such as intentionally turning down opportunities, strategic rest, and protecting your reputation over popularity.  If you suspect you might benefit from a stronger success mindset or ambition mindset without sacrificing your health, relationships, or integrity, this episode will give you practical reflection questions to guide your goal setting on your own terms. This is a chance for you to explore what it really means to define your ambition by your season of life, detach your worth from outcomes, and build a version of success that reflects who you are now and who you are becoming.  Links Mentioned: Hire Sara to speak: saradean.com/speaking Coach with Sara: https://saradean.com/executive-coaching-services Connect with Sara on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saradeanspeaks Watch Shameless Leadership episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@saradeanspeaks Learn more about your ad choices.

The average American unknowingly throws away up to $1,500 a year — and it's happening right in your own kitchen. It's not obvious. It doesn't feel wasteful in the moment. But small, everyday habits quietly drain real money from your grocery budget. There are a few surprisingly simple shifts that can stop the leak. https://www.usda.gov/foodlossandwaste/consumers Your beliefs about yourself — your abilities, your limits, your future — quietly shape your behavior every day. “I'm too old.” “I'm bad with money.” “I'll never succeed.” The problem is not that these statements are true — it's that you believe them to be true. Nir Eyal, author of Beyond Belief: The Science-Backed Way to Stop Limiting Yourself and Achieve Breakthrough Results (https://amzn.to/3OLvImC), explains how limiting beliefs form, why they feel so real, and how deliberately reshaping them can dramatically alter your trajectory in work, relationships, and life. Is memory loss inevitable as you age? Are we destined for cognitive decline? Dr. Majid Fotuhi, world-renowned neurologist and author of The Invincible Brain: The Clinically Proven Plan to Age-Proof Your Brain and Stay Sharp for Life (https://amzn.to/4l5s1nZ), says no. He explains that brain health is deeply influenced by lifestyle — including 14 factors you can control — and that protecting your mind requires the same intentional care as protecting your heart or body. When you need someone to say yes to a request, one short phrase can significantly increase your chances. It doesn't manipulate. It doesn't pressure. It simply taps into a powerful psychological principle that makes people more open to helping. https://brainblogger.com/2015/06/25/top-5-persuasion-techniques-of-2015/ PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS QUINCE: Don't keep settling for clothes that don't last!

 There's so much contradictory nutrition advice online right now—seed oils are toxic, eating breakfast is the key to losing weight, skipping breakfast is the key to losing weight, stress is the root problem. It feels like every single scroll gives you a new rule about what's okay to eat.  We like to focus on advice that's actionable and realistic, not just viral. So we're ranking healthy eating advice from the internet from superior advice to horrible advice.

Years ago, I spoke with 40 business owners. The goal of the event was to bring together some of the highest achievers, connect them with one another, and expand their businesses and their lives. Wondering what success even meant to them, I kicked off the session by asking what they would do professionally if they could achieve anything and knew they could not fail. After a moment of reflection, a brave gentleman stood and proudly announced, "I'd make it big. I mean, like really, really big!" He wanted to increase sales, expand personal accomplishments and significantly achieve more success than any of his friends or former classmates. This conversation was eerily similar to one I was part of almost a decade earlier with another gentleman. He, too, had strived to "make it big. Really, really big." The difference was that the conversation with him wasn't taking place in a boardroom with a lifetime of possibility in front of him. No, this conversation took place in a hospital room with a lifetime of regrets staring back at him. Let me explain.

Have you ever caught yourself thinking, “Why can't I just relax in this relationship?” Nothing dramatic has happened. There hasn't been an affair. No obvious betrayal. And yet you feel on edge. You double-check. You scan for signs. You wonder if something is wrong, even when everything seems fine. Trust issues in relationships do not always start with a fresh wound. Sometimes they are rooted in past hurt. Sometimes they grow out of relational trauma you thought you had already worked through. And sometimes they show up as relationship anxiety that refuses to settle down, even with a good partner. In this episode of Love, Happiness and Success, we're talking about what trust issues actually are and what they are not. We'll unpack why hypervigilance, reassurance-seeking, and worst-case thinking can quietly strain a healthy relationship, and why that reaction makes sense when you understand what your nervous system has been through. We'll also explore the difference between a real red flag and a trauma trigger, how attachment patterns shape your sense of safety, and what it truly takes to deal with trust issues in a way that builds secure connection instead of pushing love away. As you listen, gently ask yourself: Is this fear about what's happening right now, or about something that happened before? You deserve to feel secure, confident, and emotionally safe in your relationships. Learning how to deal with trust issues is not about becoming less sensitive. It is about becoming more grounded and more secure in yourself. Episode Breakdown 00:00 Why trust issues in relationships show up even when nothing is wrong 06:59 Signs of trust issues and relationship anxiety 09:18 How trust issues strain healthy relationships 21:27 Relational trauma and the roots of trust issues 33:14 Attachment styles and trust patterns 42:46 How anxiety spirals, the cereal box example 47:23 Therapy for trust issues, CBT, and couples counseling 56:36 Building secure trust from the inside out If this conversation is stirring something up for you, that makes sense. Working through trust issues and relationship anxiety takes insight, practice, and sometimes support. You can schedule a free consultation with me or a member of my team. It's a private, secure space where you can tell us what's really been happening in your relationship, what's feeling hard, and what you wish felt different. We'll help you get matched with the right counselor or coach so you can feel more grounded, more understood, and more confident in your ability to build secure, healthy love. You don't have to keep managing trust issues on your own.

Laurence & Spiegs discuss the Bears offseason after they miss out on Maxx Crosby and Tyler Linderbaum

Success doesn't begin with strategy — it begins with identity.

First Monday pod in awhile, but before Spencer heads back down to Clearwater, he and Sean Kane have the latest Phillies news from Spring Training and the World Baseball Classic.

Most entrepreneurs aren't stuck because they lack strategy—they're stuck because they believe the wrong things about success. In this episode, I break down the five lies that keep business owners grinding harder, isolating themselves, and unknowingly sabotaging their ability to scale. I share the mindset shifts that helped entrepreneurs go from overwhelmed operators to strategic leaders who grow their income and impact faster. You'll learn how to automate, delegate, and eliminate the tasks that keep you stuck working below your pay grade. If you want to scale your income, protect your time, and finally build a business that runs without you, this episode will challenge you to redesign how you lead. Some of these beliefs nearly destroyed my health and put me in the hospital, so this conversation might challenge what you think you know about hard work, discipline, and leadership. If you're ready to stop grinding and start scaling, this episode will help you replace dangerous lies with scalable truths. Let me know what you think of today’s episode! Did you learn something new? Am I missing something? Is there something that has or hasn’t worked for you in your path to success? Send me an IG DM or email and let me know how I can help you level up in life.

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and three-time NAACP Image Award-winning television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Brendan Kaminsky. Founder of B Known Agency, a boutique branding and digital marketing firm specializing in sports and entertainment. Kaminsky shares his journey from consulting, to working at ESPN, to eventually launching his own agency. He discusses helping major personalities like Stephen A. Smith, Jalen Rose, Harrison Barnes, and Rich Eisen develop strong social media identities and storytelling strategies. Brendan explains why he left ESPN after six and a half years—despite the security, prestige, and Disney benefits—to pursue entrepreneurship. He describes how brand building has shifted from traditional media to a landscape where relatability, vertical video, audience engagement, and consistent content matter more than follower counts. He also talks about the pressure of managing public-facing work in real time, the importance of being accessible to high‑profile clients, the rising role of AI in content creation, and how social platforms have become core to modern marketing strategies. Additionally, Brendan shares specific examples of working with Jalen Rose on mixing sports commentary with community-focused storytelling and describes how Rich Eisen’s annual “Run Rich Run” 40‑yard dash evolved into a signature charitable brand moment. The interview closes with insights on relationship-building, authenticity, and visibility—reinforcing that in the digital era, it’s not just “who you know,” but who knows you. PURPOSE OF THE INTERVIEW 1. To highlight Brendan Kaminsky’s entrepreneurial journey McDonald explores how Kaminsky transitioned from a major corporation (ESPN) to founding a successful agency. 2. To educate listeners on the evolving world of branding and digital media Kaminsky explains how branding now depends on relatability, vertical video, and engagement over follower count. 3. To provide actionable guidance for entrepreneurs and creators The interview teaches how consistency, accessibility, and storytelling help build a recognizable digital brand. 4. To show how athletes and media personalities use content to expand influence Brendan walks through real client strategies—from Jalen Rose’s community work to Rich Eisen’s fundraising dash. 5. To explore the role of AI in modern marketing Kaminsky discusses how AI assists with analytics, research, and identifying viral content moments. KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Relatability drives modern branding People connect with authenticity, not polished promotion. Talk to your audience, not at them. 2. Engagement matters more than follower count Algorithms reward content that resonates, regardless of how many people follow you. A creator with 10,000 followers can hit a million views. 3. Social media requires presence and accessibility High-profile clients expect responsiveness; being available is key to agency success. 4. Vertical video is the new standard Optimizing content for mobile consumption is essential—TV graphics no longer dictate how content is built. 5. AI is an asset, not a threat Kaminsky uses AI for virality scoring, caption suggestions, research, and identifying strong clips from long-form content. 6. Data tells the story Success can be clearly measured through views, engagement, and growth—unlike billboards or traditional media. 7. Use “hot topics” to highlight deeper work For clients like Jalen Rose, trending sports conversations help drive attention to community-focused initiatives like his leadership academy. 8. Brand moments can start from something small Rich Eisen’s 40-yard dash evolved into a signature charity event and content anchor. 9. Entrepreneurship requires trusting your gut He left ESPN without telling anyone beforehand to avoid discouragement—because he felt the pull to build his own vision. 10. Visibility creates opportunity In the digital era, it’s not just who you know—it’s who knows you. NOTABLE QUOTES On entrepreneurship “I trusted my gut… I didn’t tell one person I was leaving ESPN because I didn’t want anyone to make me doubt myself.” On branding “People want to relate to you. They want to get to know you.” “Talk directly to your audience.” On social metrics “It’s become a lot more about engagement and views than total follower number.” On accessibility “You could be the best at your job, but if a client can’t reach you, it doesn’t matter.” On visibility “It’s not about who you know—it’s about who knows you.” On AI “AI is absolutely an asset… it helps us with research, analytics, even virality scoring.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSteve Harvey Morning Show Online: http://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if the strategy that made you successful is now the very thing holding you back? In this episode, Steve sits down with returning guest Dre Baldwin—author, founder of Work on Your Game University, and fearless thinker—to unpack why high performers, especially lawyers, default to outworking every problem…and why that instinct eventually stops working. Dre and Steve dig into one of the most common traps for attorneys: misdiagnosis. You assume the problem is what you can see; clients aren't paying, leads have slowed down, billing feels messy, the team can't keep up. But those are often symptoms. The real issue is usually upstream: poor case selection, weak marketing skills, unclear positioning, or a diluted message that attracts the wrong work. Dre uses the Animal Farm character Boxer and the "kinetic chain" idea to show how effort, when misapplied, becomes its own obstacle and why pressing harder on the gas pedal can keep you stuck. A major thread in this conversation is the shift from improvement to leverage. Once you've been in the game long enough, the breakthrough usually isn't "get better at the job." It's learning how to extract more output from the ability you already have: through better questions, discernment, niching, signal clarity, delegation, and sometimes doing less in the wrong places so the real constraint shows up. They also talk about the difference between confidence and courage: confidence feels good because the path is familiar; courage is staying focused, like niching down, even when you hit the uncomfortable "void" where optionality shrinks and results haven't caught up yet. Hedging feels safer, but it dilutes impact. Stop pressing harder on the gas. The leverage you're looking for is on the other side of a better question, and this episode gives you practical ways to find it, including using outside perspectives (coaches and even well-prompted AI) to challenge assumptions, being willing to be an amateur again in new domains, and testing counterintuitive moves like scaling back effort so better solutions can surface. In this episode, you will hear: Why high performers default to outworking every problem — and when that strategy stops working The Animal Farm "Boxer" trap and what it costs lawyers and professionals over time Diagnosing root causes vs. symptoms using the kinetic chain analogy How to use a coach or AI to challenge assumptions and surface the real issue The courage to do less — and why it's harder than working more Niching down, signal clarity, and the uncomfortable void between pivoting and results The critical difference between confidence and courage, and why courage is what actually creates leverage ----------- Subscribe & Review Never miss an episode.

Janice B Gordon presents two case studies from her client work. The first illustrates how a legacy publishing media company transformed its sales hiring strategy, moving from intuition to a rigorous, data-informed approach. This shift reduced turnover and strengthened the long-term capability of the sales team. The second examines the transition from a reactive, fire-fighting sales culture to a proactive and empowered environment, where managers lead with clarity, alignment, and consistency to improve engagement and revenue performance.   For organisations facing high turnover, inconsistent performance, or challenges in hiring and developing talent, this episode offers practical strategies and insights from real-world experience. Janice B Gordon explains how data-driven processes and decisive leadership contribute to sustainable revenue growth.     Timestamps: 00:00 Scaling Sales Success Stories 06:15 Hiring for Growth and Fit 07:22 Streamlined Sales Hiring Process 12:50 From Management to Leadership 15:13 Sales Assessment and Team Insights 20:08 Podcast Insights and Training     About the Host Janice B Gordon is the award-winning Customer Growth Expert, founder of the Scale Your Sales Framework, and host of the Scale Your Sales Podcast.   She helps CEOs, founders and revenue leaders grow sustainable revenue by aligning leadership, sales and customer experience through her North Star Leadership approach.   Named one of LinkedIn Sales' Innovating Sales Influencers to Follow and a Top Global Thought Leader on Customer Experience, Janice works with organisations worldwide to rethink how revenue grows.   Connect with Janice Book Janice to speak at your next sales or leadership event https://janicebgordon.com   LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/janice-b-gordon/   Instagram https://www.instagram.com/janicebgordon   Scale Your Sales Podcast https://scaleyoursales.co.uk/podcast   Enjoy the episode?

Over time, that belief begins shaping how you speak, how you act, and what you believe is possible for your life.We share a perspective on how that story forms, why it feels so convincing, and what begins to shift when someone finally questions it.

If you've ever quietly wondered “Why do I feel behind?”… this conversation is for you. In this episode of Eat Don't Compete, we begin a new series exploring what success actually means for a Christian. Many of us come into the faith carrying definitions of success that were shaped by culture, ambition, productivity, and comparison. But over time, God begins to expose the tension between worldly success and biblical faithfulness. In this episode, I open up about my own wrestle with discontentment, selfish ambition, and redefining success through the lens of Christ. We talk about: Why ambitious Christians often struggle with discontentment How comparison and misplaced value systems lead to dissatisfaction What Luke 12:15 reveals about covetousness and contentment Why defining success the wrong way will always leave us off balance   The difference between hustling for success and stewarding what God gives This episode lays the foundation for a larger series where we'll explore: Biblical success Joshua 1:7–8 and God's definition of success Christian fruitfulness vs worldly achievement Faithfulness, obedience, and stewardship If you've ever wrestled with feeling like you're not doing enough, not achieving enough, or not moving fast enough in life or ministry — you're not alone. This conversation is about learning to fix our eyes on Christ so we can live faithfully without constantly redefining success according to the world. Scripture Mentioned Luke 12:15 Philippians 4:11–13 If this conversation helped you rethink success, subscribe to the channel so we can keep growing in the Word together.
