We are joined by one of my wonderful coaching clients, Lisa Lantz, the brilliant owner of The Getup—a community-focused resale store that sells everything from newborn and adult clothing to accessories, kids' gear, and toys. Lisa is just a few short weeks away from graduating from the Inventory Genius program, and she has made absolute leaps and bounds over the past year. We have never had a guest on the show with this specific type of inventory-based business model, and the breakthroughs she has made with her numbers are going to blow you away. Whether you run a traditional retail boutique, a resale shop, or even a dropshipping business, Lisa's journey holds some massive gold nuggets for you. Key Takeaways from This Episode: Consignment vs. Buy-Outright: Understand the financial risk of buying inventory outright from your customers versus running a traditional consignment model, and why your margins must reflect that risk. The Fear of Policy Changes: Why we need to "stay out of our customers' pocketbooks" and make business-first decisions without letting fear dictate our financial policies. Cracking the Cash-to-Credit Ratio: How tracking the exact ratio of cash payouts to in-store credit (which, for Lisa, sits consistently at 70% cash and 30% credit) allows for highly accurate cash-flow planning. Data-Driven Curating: Moving away from buying inventory just because "it's in good shape" to hand-curating based on high-margin, fast-turning categories (like discovering women's wear drove over 50% of Lisa's sales!). The Power of One-Dollar Levers: How focusing on just one simple lever—like raising your average ticket size by a small margin through employee training—can bridge massive sales gaps. Inside the Conversation 1. The Cash vs. Credit Conundrum Because The Getup is a buy-outright resale store, Lisa's customers can choose between cash or in-store credit (which now offers 10% more value) on the spot. When we first started working together, this model created a lot of cloudiness around her COGS (Cost of Goods Sold). We realized Lisa was paying up to 40% back in cash just to support her community and keep inventory coming in. But when you buy outright, you take on 100% of the risk if that item doesn't sell. We adjusted her payouts down, and despite her fear that she'd drive people away, not a single customer complained. "We hold off on making really important financial decisions out of fear of what people will think or say, and a lot of times, that story is only created in our head." 2. Finding the Ratios and Taking Control of Cash Flow Once we started digging into the data, we discovered a highly consistent pattern: 30% of her buyouts were store credit, and 70% were cash. Knowing this ratio changed everything. Instead of guessing, Lisa can now accurately map out her open-to-buy plan and know exactly how much hard cash she needs on hand each month. No more putting out daily financial fires! 3. Curating with Intention (and Saying "No" Gently) In resale, your inventory is a daily surprise. Lisa used to accept items simply because they were nice. Now, she uses her category data to make smart buying decisions. When she realized women's apparel made up over 50% of her sales, she knew exactly where to focus her efforts. We also talk about the delicate art of saying "no" to individual black-bag drop-offs without making it personal. 4. Moving the Needle on Average Ticket Size Our latest project is bridging a big sales growth gap not by wishing for random traffic, but by focusing on average ticket size. Lisa shares her strategy for bringing her part-time team into the numbers conversation, recording training videos, and why she is temporarily stepping back onto the sales floor to spot the operational puzzle pieces herself.

Are you waiting to be chosen… or are you choosing yourself?How often do we wait for permission before pursuing the life we really want? Whether it's applying for a new job, reaching out to someone we admire, asking for help or taking the first step towards a goal, it can feel safer to wait for someone else to notice us.In this episode of Inner Work, I reflect on one of the biggest ideas to emerge from my conversation with Clinical Psychologist Cliff Hawkins: the importance of agency, self-belief and learning to raise your hand rather than waiting to be picked.Together, we explore why confidence often follows action, how small acts of courage can change the direction of our lives, and why nobody is coming to rescue us—but that might actually be empowering rather than frightening.If you've ever wondered whether you're holding yourself back, this gentle reflection is for you.

Humans used fire as a tool. Now we fear its destruction. But we're responsible for changing the climate, argues John Vailliant, "in a way that favours fire way more than it favours us." The author unpacks how fire made humans who we are — and how humans are changing fire in his book, Fire Weather: The Making of a Beast.*This episode originally aired on May 29, 2024.

The best designed levels are the ones that quietly guide players and build emotion without ever feeling restrictive. But too often, we feel the need to hand-hold to ensure they can progress, without realizing we're doing more harm than good. In this episode, we explore how level design functions as an invisible layer of communication between developers and players by breaking down the principles that help create experiences that feel intuitive, engaging, and rewarding, without players ever realizing we were always in control.

Most people trying to improve their lives are doing it without a clear picture of what they are building toward. For Joel Steele, a near-miss with prison forced him to start making different choices. His book “Life Switch” grows out of that turning point, and the framework he describes maps surprisingly well onto the tools that continuous improvement professionals use every day. In this episode you’ll learn: Why progress builds momentum faster than motivation alone (0:02) The quote Joel likes (3:19) How focus shapes the direction of everything you do (4:09) What a near-death experience reveals about wasted potential (6:06) How the puzzle analogy reframes goal-setting for real life (8:58) Why believing in the process separates progress from stagnation (13:22) How failure functions as fuel rather than a stop sign (14:47) The difference between living on and merely surviving each day (18:46) How understanding your wiring unlocks the right role for you (21:27) Why fulfillment is the only scorecard that actually matters (24:13) How buying one book becomes part of a million-dollar donation (27:27) “It’s simple in theory, but it’s hard to execute. But when you understand that, hey, this is going to work and you believe in that process and you don’t have doubt in yourself, you make so much more progress.” – Joel Steele Keep Learning If Joel’s point about believing in the process resonated, the School of Leadership is a natural next step for anyone who wants to build the kind of clarity and conviction that sustains continuous improvement over time.

In this episode, Travis breaks down his conversation with wellness creator and fitness educator Michael Smoak, better known online as HigherUpWellness. With millions of followers across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, Michael has built a massive audience by cutting through the noise of the fitness industry and sharing practical, evidence-based advice that actually works. Travis reflects on the lessons from their conversation, including why nuance matters in health, how simple habits outperform trendy hacks, and why taking ownership of your physical health can completely transform your life. On this episode we talk about: Why certainty and absolutism are major red flags in the fitness industry The importance of getting your physical health in order early in life Why fitness and weight loss are simple, but not easy How honestly tracking your food can completely change your perspective Why personal responsibility matters more than relying on the healthcare system Top 3 Takeaways Most health and fitness advice fails because people focus on hacks and shortcuts instead of mastering the fundamentals like sleep, movement, nutrition, and consistency. Tracking your calories honestly — even for just 30 days — can expose the habits that are actually holding you back. Taking control of your health improves far more than your body; it impacts your confidence, mental clarity, opportunities, and overall quality of life. Notable Quotes “Nuance isn't weakness — nuance is honesty.” “It's not easy, but it is simple.” “Nobody's coming to fix this for you.” Connect with Michael Smoak: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/higherupwellness TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@higherupwellness Other: https://higherupwellness.com A Word from Our Sponsors: - Are you ready to start your own creatorjourney and make it big?

Ari Paparo and guest co host Paul Knegten are joined by Mark Stenberg, Senior Media Reporter at Adweek, for a conversation about the current state of digital media and publishing. They discuss Vox Media's reported plans around its podcast business, how publishers are adjusting to declining search and social traffic, and why newsletters, podcasts, and direct audience relationships are becoming more important. The episode also touches on OpenAI's advertising plans, Ziff Davis acquisitions, AppLovin's growth, and broader shifts happening across media and ad tech.

In this co-host episode, Travis and his producer, Eric, break down the latest data on financial stress in America and shares his unfiltered perspective on what it really takes to improve your financial situation. With a mix of humor, real-world examples, and hard truths, they challenge listeners to stop waiting for external solutions and start building skills that create income and independence. On this episode we talk about: The latest SurveyMonkey data on rising financial stress and affordability challenges Why blaming the government won't fix your personal financial situation Practical ways to make more money through skills, promotions, and side hustles How to use extra cash (like tax refunds) to create long-term income The mindset shift required to take ownership of your financial future Top 3 Takeaways The biggest lever you can pull isn't cutting expenses—it's increasing your income through valuable skills. Waiting for external solutions (like government policy changes) delays progress you could be making right now. Investing in yourself—your skills, knowledge, and earning ability—creates lasting financial stability, not temporary relief. Notable Quotes "Nobody has as much control over your financial situation as you do." "You can only cut your expenses to zero, but there's no cap on how much you can make." "Even if it's not your fault, it's still your responsibility."

In this solo episode, I dig into what so many parents of teens wrestle with: rebuilding trust after your kid has hurt or scared you. I explore why hypervigilance is a trauma response and not a character flaw, the difference between earned trust and naive trust, why the body holds on even when our mind wants to move on, and how doing your own healing work matters as much as anything they do. Tender, real, and full of practical tools.

In this episode of the Building Better Humans Project, Glenn explores the power of stoicism in the face of adversity. He shares a powerful story about former Navy SEAL Jocko Willink, who responds to a leader's panic with a simple yet profound word: "good." Glenn explains how this stoic response isn't about denial or suppression, but about taking control of one's perception and response to challenging situations. He invites listeners to reframe their reactions to difficulties, asking what opportunities might be hidden within them, and how they can use those challenges to grow and become stronger.

Caleb speaks with green industry veteran Marty Grunder. The discussion focuses on professionalism and sales strategies within the landscaping business, emphasizing that customer service starts with internal team culture. Grunder highlights the necessity of screening potential clients and understanding company numbers to ensure profitability and successful project closing. He further explains that physical presentation, such as clean equipment and professional attire, is vital for landing high-value contracts. Additionally, Grunder details his educational ventures, including the Grow Group and various training seminars designed to mentor other entrepreneurs. The conversation concludes by stressing the importance of emotional intelligence and effective communication in a shifting economic landscape. Key Takeaways: Prioritize your internal team culture because the level of service your employees provide to clients will never exceed the level of service they receive from you. Implement a rigorous lead screening process to ensure you are only meeting with potential clients who are a profitable, enjoyable, and sustainable fit for your business. Use a "Good, Better, Best" pricing model early in the sales conversation to help qualify the client's budget and demonstrate the value of different service levels. Enhance your professional image by consistently showing up on time, maintaining clean equipment, and dressing in a way that aligns with the high-end projects you want to land. Commit to continuous improvement through regular role-playing and ongoing education to sharpen your communication skills and maintain your status as an expert in your field.

In this episode, Travis and his producer break down a viral financial conversation sparked by a high-earning creator who didn't know her own net worth. Using real-world examples—from viral internet personalities to celebrities like Dane Cook—they unpack the dangers of financial illiteracy, blind trust, and poor money management. This episode is a candid, practical discussion on why understanding your finances is just as important as making money in the first place. On this episode we talk about: The viral clip that exposed a major gap in financial literacy—even among high earners Why not knowing your net worth can cost you millions The risks of blindly trusting financial advisors or money managers Real-world examples of financial mismanagement and fraud Simple ways to protect your money and stay financially informed Top 3 Takeaways Making money is only half the battle—understanding and managing it is what builds long-term wealth.

Healthy CEO Show: Dr. Joe Jacko on Longevity, Testosterone, and Taking Control of Your Health Host Jason Wright interviews Dr. Joe Jacko about regenerative medicine, longevity, and his critique of modern “sick care.” Jacko recounts his path from internal and sports medicine into men's health and a concierge-style practice focused on lifestyle, hormone replacement, and comprehensive testing, arguing medical training and care are shaped by pharmaceutical funding, insurance limits, and hospital employment. They discuss testosterone therapy (targeting symptom improvement and upper-third reference ranges), common low-testosterone symptoms, and why standard primary-care labs often omit testosterone. Jacko outlines how fee-for-service restricts time and testing, contrasts it with integrated models like We Are The Armory, and explains his book, influenced by COVID-era concerns about research presentation and industry influence. Practical takeaways include prioritizing nutrition, strength training, sleep, stress management, learning, and purpose; using GLP-1s only with strength training and diet support; fasting/sauna habits; and exploring broader functional testing while avoiding overreacting to isolated abnormal results. 00:00 Show Opening 00:26 Meet Dr Joe Jocko 01:40 From Sports to Longevity 03:12 Testosterone Replacement Basics 05:06 Symptoms Over Lab Ranges 06:58 Why Primary Care Misses It 09:59 Sick Care System Origins 12:21 Fee for Service Pressures 14:31 Holistic Concierge Model 19:19 Writing Bamboozled Duped 22:53 Building Patient Agency 25:32 Natural Testosterone Boosters 28:05 Cardio Only Wakeup Call 28:41 Resistance Training For Longevity 30:41 GLP One Muscle Loss Risks 32:37 Longevity First Principles 34:48 Daily Habits Fasting Sauna 37:00 Mindset Hacks For Movement 40:00 Protein Keto And Meal Timing 41:43 Fasting As Calorie Restriction 45:29 Healthspan Thesis And Advocacy 47:52 Labs Gut Health And Testing 49:55 Where To Find Dr Jacko 50:48 Medical Disclaimer Closing

This is a talk on personal agency and spiritual well-being as Part 2 of a continuing series on Wellbeing.Personal agency is defined as "the individual's capacity to act intentionally, to make autonomous choices, and to influence their own circumstances and environment." But how free is our decision making process? And how autonomous are we in a world driven by Social Media and AI? Unfortunately, people don't question where their desires originate and whether they are truly self-generated.Personal agency is often associated with the terms self-determination and self-agency. Acharya das questions what personal agency means from a spiritual perspective, beginning from the concept of "self" used in the term ‘self-determination.'At the beginning of the talk Acharya das mentions another series of talks titled “Who Controls your Mind” which can be accessed via the following links:https://open.spotify.com/episode/125xZdjbMeCC1wmN4O8mPm?si=4Vw4cpZoQz6NKEPOKXxACw https://open.spotify.com/episode/5UiR00VEKV5q2HT4L4g7bC?si=2qLshURaTa2VDF0m_68kMQ https://open.spotify.com/episode/0Bb1QwUPfzJN0wIcRT1qbU?si=eu3rhEToQkGR3SYEQAXF-A https://open.spotify.com/episode/6FLoEVfJoEmQ7frixdVuCC?si=W5NVIIdbSImv31IIdPwRAQ https://acharyadas.com/series/who-controls-your-mind/ Verses quoted in this talk:“The individual is the passenger in the chariot of the material body, and intelligence is the driver. Mind is the driving instrument, and the senses are the horses. The self is thus the enjoyer or sufferer in the association of the mind and senses. So it is understood by great thinkers.” Katha Upanisad 1.3.3-4The working senses are superior to dull matter; mind is higher than the senses; intelligence is still higher than the mind; and he [the soul] is even higher than the intelligence. Bhagavad-gita 3.42A man must elevate himself by his own mind, not degrade himself. The mind is the friend of the conditioned soul, and his enemy as well. Bhagavad-gita 6.5For him who has conquered the mind, the mind is the best of friends; but for one who has failed to do so, his very mind will be the greatest enemy. Bhagavad-gita 6.6This uncontrolled mind is the greatest enemy of the living entity. If one neglects it or gives it a chance, it will grow more and more powerful and will become victorious. Although it is not factual, it is very strong. It covers the constitutional position of the self/atma. Bhāgavata Purāṇa 5.11.17For one whose mind is unbridled, self-realization is difficult work. But he whose mind is controlled and who strives by right means is assured of success. That is My opinion. Bhagavad-gita 6.36“One who is not connected with the Supreme Soul can have neither transcendental intelligence nor a steady mind, without which there is no possibility of peace. And how can there be any happiness without peace?” – Bhagavad-gita 2.66Chapters 00:00:10 Introduction and Topic Change ‎ 00:02:16 Modern Mind Control and Social Media Manipulation ‎ 00:04:32 The Illusion of Engagement and Control ‎ 00:06:34 Defining Personal Agency ‎ 00:10:46 The Science of Advertising and Manipulation ‎ 00:13:51 Redefining Personal Agency ‎ 00:15:52 The Question of Self-Identity ‎ 00:18:14 Vedic Understanding of Self ‎ 00:25:21 The Chariot Analogy ‎ 00:28:28 The Mind as Friend and Enemy ‎ 00:30:48 Rat Trap Happiness ‎ 00:32:37 The Importance of Good Decision-Making ‎ 00:35:30 The Uncontrolled Mind as Enemy ‎ 00:36:30 The Path to Self-Realization ‎ 00:37:44 Marching to a Different Beat ‎ 00:40:20 Connection to the Supreme ‎ 00:41:54 The Role of Meditation ‎

In this master's class episode of the Smart Real Estate Coach Podcast, I sit down with Yvonne Trost, happiness coach, certified hypnotherapist, and co-founder of Limitless You, for a conversation that hits the hardest part of our genius model head-on: mindset. We can teach skill set. We can teach systems. But when life throws curveballs, mindset is what determines whether you stay stuck or move forward.   Yvonne shares her journey from a small-town upbringing in central Illinois, to a high-performing consulting career, to a life-changing personal transformation that led her into hypnotherapy, mindfulness, and transformational coaching. We unpack how limiting beliefs get formed, why so many high achievers are unknowingly running on subconscious autopilot, and how fear, judgment, doubt, and self-pity quietly cap your growth in business and life. We also talk about anxiety, nervous system triggers, identity, visibility, and why self-help is not selfish.    If you're an entrepreneur, investor, or leader who knows the next breakthrough is not just about tactics but about who you are becoming, this episode will give you a fresh lens on how to stop recreating the past and start building your future on purpose.   Key Talking Points of the Episode   00:00 Introduction 01:10 Who is Yvonne Trost? 02:13 Yvonne's backstory: small-town Illinois and a sheltered upbringing 03:46 How love can still create limiting beliefs 04:50 Divorce as the wake-up call 05:35 How hypnotherapy changed everything 06:51 The yacht and dock metaphor: why so many people stay stuck 08:05 The past and future do not exist the way we think they do 09:02 Creating your future present instead of your past present 10:21 Why hustle and grind may be the wrong operating system 11:16 Understanding that things are happening for you, not to you 13:20 Anxiety is often a side effect, not the root problem 14:30 The zebra and lion analogy for the nervous system 17:23 Why mindset work matters more than the next tactic 20:20 What Yvonne's programs actually look like 21:27 The 3-Step Process: realize, recode, rewrite 24:21 Why most self-help does not go deep enough 28:11 Program delivery: Zoom and in-person experiences in Washington DC 29:43 How to choose a coach to work with 33:08 Free resources and the Limitless You quiz 34:20 Why self-help is not selfish   Quotables "We cause ourselves suffering based upon the past or the future, but those things don't exist."   "Your mind only will entertain things that are one, good to have done, and two, possible to do."   "Self-help is not selfish."   Links   Limitless You https://unlocklimitlessyou.com/   The Limitless You Quiz https://unlocklimitlessyou.com/self-love-quiz/   3 Paydays® Live https://3paydayslive.com/podcast   Free Discovery Call https://smartrealestatecoachpodcast.com/discovery   3 Paydays® System Mastery Course - Use coupon code for 50% off https://smartrealestatecoach.com/qls Coupon code: pod   Apprentice Program https://3paydaysapprentice.com Coupon code: Podcast   Masterclass https://smartrealestatecoach.com/masterspodcast   3 Paydays Books https://3paydaysbooks.com/podcast   Partners https://smartrealestatecoach.com/podcastresources

In this episode of the podcast, I sit down in person with Dr. Jaime Knopman, a leading reproductive endocrinologist and author of the book Own Your Fertility. Dr. Knopman shares what inspired her to write a book that cuts through the noise and delivers accurate, relatable information on women's fertility. From her early inspiration by Elizabeth Blackwell to her specialization in reproductive medicine, she walks us through her journey and why she believes every woman deserves to make educated choices about her fertility before time becomes a factor.We dive deep into the biological clock, the shame surrounding infertility, and why Dr. Knopman wants us to stop treating fertility as a given. She explains the global fertility crisis, the societal shifts driving it, and why she personally plans to have her own daughters freeze their eggs at 22. We also cover lifestyle factors, AI in fertility medicine, and a rapid fire round covering everything from supplements to saunas. This is a must-listen conversation for any woman thinking about her reproductive health.Key Highlights:

Storytelling strategist and pitch expert Donna Griffith joins me to unpack how leaders, founders, and professionals can take control of their narrative during moments of chaos—and why the ability to rewrite your story may be the most valuable skill in the AI era.Most conversations about disruption focus on technology. This one focuses on something more human: how people interpret change, adapt to it, and reposition themselves when the world shifts underneath them.Donna has spent over two decades helping entrepreneurs, executives, and startup founders transform raw information—data, facts, features, and technical language—into compelling narratives that move investors, customers, and teams to action.But storytelling isn't just a presentation skill.It's a survival skill.In this conversation, we explore how narrative shapes the way people respond to major disruptions—from economic crashes and industry shifts to global events like 9/11, the financial crisis, and COVID. Donna shares how each of those moments forced her to reinvent her own professional story, pivoting from corporate training to startup storytelling and ultimately becoming one of the leading pitch strategists in the startup ecosystem.We also explore what may be the next massive narrative shift: the rise of AI.As automation compresses traditional organizational hierarchies and reshapes knowledge work, many professionals will need to rethink their roles, redefine their value, and tell a new story about what they do.The people who succeed won't necessarily be the ones with the best resumes.They'll be the ones who can translate their skills into a story the market understands.This episode is about resilience, reinvention, and why narrative—not credentials—is often the real driver of opportunity.The lesson isn't blind optimism.It's learning how to rewrite your story when the plot changes.TL;DR• Narrative determines how people interpret chaos and opportunity• Economic shocks often create new industries and new professional paths• Storytelling transforms raw information into messages that move people to act• Career pivots often emerge from crisis moments• AI will compress corporate hierarchies and reshape knowledge work• Professionals who control their narrative adapt faster than those who don't• Reinvention requires aligning skills with what the market needs now• The future belongs to people who can translate expertise into compelling storiesMemorable Lines• “You can walk through life telling the story of your problems—or leave them at home and go live.”• “Storytelling turns bits, bytes, and facts into messages that drive results.”• “AI is a sous-chef. You're still the executive chef.”• “The world doesn't just change your circumstances—it changes the story you need to tell.”• “Reinvention starts when you ask what the world needs now.”GuestDonna Griffith — Corporate Storyteller, Pitch Alchemist, and Startup Narrative ExpertFor more than 20 years, Donna has helped startups, executives, and global companies transform complex information into powerful narratives that secure funding, drive sales, and influence decision-makers.She is widely recognized for her work helping startups craft investor pitch stories and has supported companies that collectively raised billions in funding.

In this episode, LaKiesha Tomlin, a former aerospace defense engineering leader, shares how she transformed her personal journey into investing into a mission to help others understand and participate in the stock market. Her interest was sparked during the 2008 financial crisis, and over several years she educated herself, overcame fear, and began investing with small, intentional steps. What started as a desire to better manage her own finances grew into a framework she now teaches—one rooted in consistency, practical learning, and building confidence through understanding rather than chasing quick results. The conversation explores the emotional and psychological barriers many professionals—especially women—face when approaching investing, from fear of losing money to believing they must "know everything" before starting. LaKiesha explains how simplifying complex concepts, committing just 30–60 minutes a day to learning, and focusing on clarity over fast profits can create lasting financial empowerment. She also emphasizes her philosophy of helping people become independent decision-makers, not lifelong followers, and reframing market shifts as opportunities to think strategically and build long-term confidence.
