Freebirth is not just about where you give birth; it can expose everything happening in your marriage, your nervous system, and your deepest beliefs about what you think you deserve. Erin shares two raw, unforgettable freebirths in upstate New York, and the second one includes a moment most couples would never survive on camera. While she is actively laboring, her husband says he wants a divorce.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Introducing LEMONADE, my newest training program.Six months, live, with me.

You're listening to a conversation about the part of performance nobody can automate away: other people. Reed Kellum is a Tulane grad out of Jackson, Mississippi — former Green Wave catcher, high-GPA student who used to talk about building a tech company someday. After baseball, he landed in a different kind of high-performance environment: NEURA, a 2025 behavioral-performance startup that calls itself a “behavioral operating system.” facebook.com The pitch is simple and a little cocky: most teams still treat communication like personality. Some people “just get it.” NEURA says that's lazy. Reading people, regulating your presence, timing a question, spotting hesitation — those are trainable skills. You can practice them, score them, and get better under pressure. neuratraining.com That's Reed's lane. He's a behavioral performance professional at NEURA. His work sits at the intersection of behavioral intelligence, communication, and performance training: why people do what they do, how we misread them, and how a small change in how you open a conversation can change the whole outcome. The company takes ideas that usually live in psychology textbooks and turns them into things a sales team, a founder, or a leader can use on Tuesday afternoon — negotiating, selling, running a hard meeting, managing conflict, or just not blowing a relationship. facebook.comNEURA's stack has three pieces:NEURA Academy — the shared language. Behavioral cues, presence, elicitation, how different people process information.NEURA Coach — an AI coach that roleplays the other person, gives live feedback on what you said, how you said it, and what you missed.NEURA Client Advisor — profiles built from real conversations so the next meeting is tailored to how that person actually decides. neuratraining.comThey wrap it in game mechanics: brackets, scorecards, leaderboards. The idea is that composure is easier to build when practice feels like a sport instead of a seminar. Early customers talk about better team dynamics, more production, and reps who stop guessing in the room. Testimonials keep mentioning “Chris's training,” which suggests Reed is part of a small founding/operating crew rather than the sole face of the company. LinkedIn lists the firm at 2–10 people. linkedin.comThe bigger claim is timed for this moment. AI is flooding every workflow. Emails get drafted. Decks get generated. What still decides the deal, the hire, the board meeting, is whether a human can read another human and stay steady. Reed's angle — athlete who lived inside high-pressure rooms, then went into behavioral tech — is that connection is still analog, even when the coaching is not.That's the episode in a sentence: a former college catcher helping a tiny company turn “people skills” into a system you can train, measure, and run like an operating system.Website www.luxelifediscovered.com Youtube  Roku Amazon Fire TV 

Send us Fan MailSpecial announcement episode! Think about all the conferences in our industry - sales training events, marketing summits, the big trade shows where technology is one track out of forty. Not one of them is solely focused on new home sales and marketing technology. Until now.Builder Tech is officially back. Anewgo CEO John Lee and Chip Johnson of Builder Designs have known each other for over a decade, and after years of "we need to build this" conversations in the back rooms of conferences, they finally did. In this episode, Anya Chrisanthon shares their conversation about why Builder Tech is back, why now, and who should be in the room.Why now Tech went from a four-letter word in this industry to a two-letter word: AI. As John puts it, the fear of being left behind is now scarier than the fear of early adoption. ChatGPT has been out since 2022 - we are way past introduction and deep into application. And builders are discovering you can't just buy AI off the shelf: legacy systems, processes, and partners all have to evolve together.Where the buyer journey is heading Buyers shopping you from their Gemini and ChatGPT conversations. Buyers delegating the search to AI buyer's agents. The progression from generative AI to agentic AI to agentic commerce - with AI accompanying the buyer through the entire journey, from discovery all the way to loan applications, insurance, closing, and warranties. And the one thing that makes any of it work: good data about your unique position in your market.What the event looks like This is a working event, not a gala. Panels as real productions. Testimonials from builders who have actually implemented this technology. Roundtables where vendor partners sit with builders and learn from each other - not booths, but kiosks featuring only the best of the best. You won't just leave with ideas. You'll leave with mentors, peer partners, and relationships to help you navigate a disruptive AI world.Who should attend Marketing directors, CEOs, CTOs - anybody with a stake in their business and their digital footprint, and an appetite for getting better.

https://youtu.be/lrnG7ydEErk Saul Marquez, Founder and CEO of Outcomes Rocket, helps medtech and healthtech companies get closer to revenue through healthcare-focused marketing strategy and execution. Driven by a desire to be a source of love and inspiration, Saul supports healthcare innovators whose work helps people live healthier, longer lives. He believes companies improving healthcare deserve to succeed and should not have to navigate growth alone. In this conversation, Saul shares his Leverage the 3 Forms of Marketing Framework—Owned (podcast, books, content), Earned (Stages, Testimonials), and Paid (Drive Traffic to What Converts). He explains why companies need a clear strategy and strong owned assets before pursuing earned exposure, and why paid marketing should amplify a funnel that already converts. Saul also discusses growing through primary research, thought leadership, podcasting, and conferences rather than relying on cold outreach. He shares why marketing metrics must connect to pipeline and revenue, and how sales blockers, opportunities, and needs can guide the creation of campaigns and sales enablement assets. —   Get Closer to Revenue with Saul Marquez Good day, dear listeners. Steve Preda here with The Management Blueprint Podcast, and my guest today is Saul Marquez, the Founder and CEO of Outcomes Rocket, a healthcare-exclusive marketing strategy and full-service marketing execution firm that helps medtech and healthtech companies accelerate their growth. Saul, welcome to the show.  Steve, such a pleasure to be here with you and your listeners. Thank you for the opportunity.  Well, I really have to get my A-game today because I rarely find a podcaster who’s recorded more episodes than I have. You beat that by a multiple of five or six. So definitely, I have to be on my best performance. But my first question is always the same, at least recently. What is your personal “Why,” and how are you manifesting it in your business?  My personal Why. I did some thinking. This was probably about 20 years ago. I did this program. I’ve always been very reflective, and I’m a big journaler. I love to write my thoughts. And I had the chance to, about 20 years ago, do a program called Date With Destiny. It’s a Tony Robbins program. It was a game changer for me. Five days with people that want to just crush it in life—personal, professional, financial, right? Like, they just want to do the best.  And so I had these five days to myself to really look inside, journal, question. And during that session, he has what he calls your primary question. You sort of look inside and you ask and you think about, like, what are those words, the stories that you tell yourself? And the primary question is that question that drives your life. And I was able to uncover that my primary question is, “I want to be a source of love and inspiration to myself and others.” And so I’m driven by love. I’m driven by inspiration. And so that’s my primary question and my primary Why. And then, when you think about it professionally, Steve, I’m very driven by mission.  So because of that, I started my career in medical devices around the same time that I actually did the seminar. And I’m driven by being able to help people live better lives and increase health span, not just lifespan. And that’s why the work that we do focuses around leaders innovating in the healthcare space. So very driven by those things.  But these are very noble ideas. And I mean, who wouldn’t want to live better, live longer? That’s an obvious need from everyone, really. And it’s a great thing if you can create an impact in that realm, that then you are creating something very valuable.  You are, Steve. And the data point here that I’ll share to pair the purposefulness, the data point, because we’re very data-driven as a business, and I’m a data geek, is that healthcare is essentially 18% of U.S. GDP, which represents $4.8 trillion annually. It’s larger than the German economy, and that’s just the U.S. alone. So whenever anybody says, “Oh, your niche is healthcare,” I say, “Well, I mean, my economy that I’m focused on is healthcare.” It’s huge.  Of course. Yeah.  Yeah.  Yeah. And probably, I mean, we can get into whether that’s not an overinflated number. Is it really that proportionate value? But if you think about it, the biggest resource is humans, then spending 18% of GDP on the biggest resource is not much.  It definitely isn’t. And then if you sort of zoom out and you take a look at globally, GDP focused on healthcare, it’s definitely higher than most first-world countries. And the outcomes aren’t commensurate to the investment. So the opportunity to improve access, affordability, better outcomes is a huge opportunity. And I'm in awe, and I have major respect for all the entrepreneurs and business leaders in this space that are looking to improve those metrics for us in healthcare, and that's why we love to stand behind them.Share on X  The stats are real. 50% of businesses fail within five years, and something above 80% fail within 10 years. And we believe at Outcomes Rocket that if you’re in the business of helping people live healthier, longer lives, you deserve to succeed, and we want to be behind you. And so that’s why we do what we do. The people doing the work, it’s hard, and they can’t do it alone.  Yeah. Love it. Just as an aside, whatever happened to this initiative of Warren Buffett and Jeff Bezos that they announced some years ago that they would reform the—  Yeah.  Healthcare?  Haven?  Yeah. I don’t know what it was called.  Yeah, Haven. So yeah, it was Berkshire Hathaway, Amazon, and JPMorgan. And it didn’t work. And it shows you that, like, even when the best of the best try to go do something about it, it doesn’t work. It’s hard. It’s hard work. Yeah. It’s hard work.  I bet it’s very hard. So hopefully AI will fix it. Let’s hope. What do you think about that?  That’s a great one, man. Like, AI definitely is not fixing it. However, properly deployed AI in solutions such as ambient scribing that helps physicians spend time with patients and no longer have to do what they call pajama time. Pajama time is the time that they spend at home after hours logging things into the medical record. Like, if you’re able to give a physician time back from not having to do that, and actually time back to look at you in the eyes when you’re in the waiting room, that’s awesome use of AI.  The use of AI in the elimination of waste is also beautiful. So I think as a tool, for sure, there’s huge promise in the use of AI for healthcare. Hell, in robotics, man. Like, I was just at a conference, Steve. I was in Miami. Where do you live, by the way?  I'm in Virginia.  Oh, you’re in Virginia? Cool. I’m in San Diego, where I’m literally at the SRS, so that’s the Society of Robotic Surgery. And I’m in the room, and there was a surgeon in Virginia, actually, and a surgeon in California, and the robots were operating on. It wasn’t a person. It was actually just like a simulation, but it was like a cadaver type of thing. And with AI, spatial AI, and the use of technology, these surgeons are operating in two different states on one person.  Remotely?  Yeah, remotely, and it’s working great through robotics. So all of this stuff, man, is coming together. Yesterday, I had a conversation with an entrepreneur in the materials and 3D printing space. She’s been in it for years, and just chatting with her was inspiring because what they could do now as far as custom-built plates for craniomaxillofacial or foot and ankle, they could literally print this stuff overnight on sheets, whereas it used to take months.  Like, we’re moving fast, and the innovations that are available. She called it patient matching, like the N of one. I mean, what’s possible today for a fraction of the cost than it used to be back then is just inspiring. And it’s happening right before us. So it’s a really great, great time to be alive.  And to stay alive.  And to stay alive. Exactly. Well said, my friend. Well said. Hey, you have to tell me about Summit OS and Fable, man. Like, I love what you have back there.  Well, I’ll tell you all about Summit OS on your podcast, but on this podcast, we talk about you. That’s fair. That’s fair.  I like that. I like that.  So let’s talk about frameworks because this podcast is a podcast of frameworks.  I love frameworks.  And I saw that you have the Discover, Define, Deliver, or something like that. But I’m looking for something more unique. Yeah. So something that maybe that’s more insightful or more unique or more you that you could share with the audience, which still can be explained in four to five steps or elements maximum to which give people an insight as to how to do things better.  Absolutely. So I think you and I are brothers from another mother, Steve, because I just love frameworks as well. So the 3D approach is easy, as you mentioned, right? But it is our approach and how we reproducibly bring about a program from start to finish for a client: Discover, Define, Deliver.  Underneath that, that is the hood to another framework, which when you start to deliver, the framework is essentially a four-part framework that starts with strategy, then it’s owned, earned, and paid, okay? And so those are the types of marketing that you could do. And you mentioned at the beginning we’re a marketing strategy and full-service execution agency, which essentially means we’re a revenue partner, we’re a commercialization partner.  So when you go to market with your value and your value proposition, it all starts with strategy. Strategy is so key. And one of the key quotes that we always share, Steve, is that, “Tactics are the noise you hear before the war is lost.” And I have to say, Steve, and everybody with us, in marketing, there are so many tactics. Too many. And guess what?  Today, with AI, there are so many tactics. I was just on a podcast a couple days ago where I made this connection. I hadn’t made the connection yet, but you have to have an AI strategy. If you don’t have an AI strategy, you become part of somebody else’s plan, and even worse, you become so fragmented, and it’s reflecting in your P&L. Like, you not having an AI strategy is showing up in your P&L in a big way. But anyway, back to the marketing thing and the framework. So start with the strategy.  Inside of your strategy are some very basic things, such as your personas, your ideal client personas, which is like firmographic, kind of number of employees, revenue, et cetera.Share on X Your core messaging. Your brand house essentially is your vision, your differentiation, and then your performance promise. It’s essentially like three pillars. That’s your strategy and your positioning, right? Then when you go to owned, earned, paid—and by the way, they’re in this order for a reason. It’s like algorithmic.  I liken it to the Rubik’s Cube. I was watching a YouTube video with my nine-year-old, and he was like, “Hey, Dad, figure out how to solve this.” I brought him a Rubik’s Cube from a conference. I watched this four-part video. The guy’s name is Cubastic. Have you ever watched it, Steve?  No.  No? Okay. Cubastic, literally, he’s a genius. Like, in four 10-minute videos, walks you through how to solve a Rubik’s Cube. And I can solve a Rubik’s Cube in less than two minutes and 30 seconds reproducibly now. It’s actually one of my conference tricks now, like whenever I go to a booth. And so I’m sitting there thinking, like, yes, no matter what, wherever the pieces are on the cube, if you use this algorithm, it's a four-part framework it gets you to the same end.Share on X  So I’m thinking, that’s exactly what we do. So the strategy, then owned, earned, paid, in that order. So owned is everything that’s on your website, what you put out on social. If you have a podcast like yours, Steve, this is owned. You own this. It’s the narrative that you own. Newsletters. Then you have earned. Why does this order matter? Well, if you try to do earned media, like if you hire a PR agency to do earned media, get you media attention, and you don’t have your strategy or your story straight, you’re going to confuse the market even more.  So that’s why earned is after owned. And with earned, it’s everything that you get. There’s a gentleman that put it really great. I have to get his name, but I got this from him. OPS, he calls it Other People’s Stages. And there’s digital and there’s physical stages. I’m on your digital stage. You’ve built this thing, and you’ve invited me, and I’m grateful for it. And by the way, I’m going to have you on mine. I want to learn about Summit OS, and I want to learn about your frameworks, and I want our audience to also learn about those.  So there’s an asset here, and we’re doing an exchange, which is beautiful, and we’re spreading ideas that make a difference. So in earned, you’re getting opportunities like on OPS, and those could also be written. So you get a byline article on a publication, right? Or you get invited to speak at a conference. That’s earned. And then there’s paid. And people ask me the question, like, “Hey, I’ve got these paid campaigns going on.” And I’m like, “Dude, you have nothing on your website that supports a narrative. Nobody is talking about you. Why would you even pay for anything?” I don’t care what it is.  Unless you got all those other things right, paid is there, like paid conferences, to get more people that’ll read the brochures that are owned, that’ll see the testimonials that are earned, that’ll convert to opportunities to check out your demo or sit with you to consider what you’re doing as a business to solve problems. And so the paid is essentially a way to increase traffic to an existing funnel that converts.  So essentially, this framework of strategy, owned, earned, paid is the framework of marketing that, if done right algorithmically, you will get results.Share on X And the result is the acceleration of someone, a business or a person, that goes from the awareness to consideration to decision funnel, which is essentially the business funnel for anyone, right? You accelerate the speed at which somebody learns about you and the problems you solve, considers you as a solution, and then makes a decision to work with you. So you’re not really selling a quick fix here, are you?  It’s not a quick fix. There are no quick fixes. You have to commit to the process and get it done.  Yeah, I like it. I mean, that makes complete sense. You have to have some assets that you start with that you own. I like the podcast. Okay, books can be like that. Yeah. Website, of course. Your frameworks are your asset, basically. And then you have to earn the right to actually share what you know. I love it. People validate, go through the stages, and get the testimonials, so you have to deliver. You have to prove that those assets are actually working, right?  Yes.  And then when you have a funnel, you already have a product that has proven itself, then it’s all about increasing the throughput. So paid is what? That’s right.  There is an amplifier.  That’s it. That’s it. Yeah. Yep. Yep.  It makes complete sense. It’s a very good framework. I’ve never thought about it this way, but it makes complete sense to me.  And it’s algorithmic. No matter where the pieces in the cube are, if you run it, you’re always going to end up with the same color on each side. It just works.  Yeah. So if you don’t have your assets, you haven’t earned your right, then you are just wasting your money on paid. Yeah.  Yeah. You’re wasting it. You are. Now, there’s a use case for paid to accelerate learnings. If you’re working on copy that you just need feedback on, there’s a use case to get mass targeted, like your ideal client looking at and interacting with it to understand how to better convert. That’s a use case, right? You’re after conversion optimization data. That’s fine, right? That’s fine. You could use paid to fine-tune conclusions as well.  Can you use paid for market research? Oh, yeah, for sure.  What you should be selling?  Yeah. You could definitely use paid for market research, for sure, if you have an end in mind. If your end in mind is to get more target, and then you just have to decide, right? Like, what payment model should you deploy? Should you put an ad out, or should you work with a partner that has access to a pool of qualified survey respondents? Would it be more efficient to just go through them, right? So it’s just a matter of what the end goal is.  That makes sense. So let me ask you a question, Saul. What drives growth in your business?  So a couple things. We do thought leadership, and so the thought leadership that we do is on healthcare marketing.Share on X And by the way, even though we focus on healthcare marketing, there’s fundamentals there that can apply to any business. So if you’re listening to this podcast and thinking, “I’m not healthcare,” there’s still fundamentals in the research that we do and the data that we mine that can help you.  So thought leadership based off primary research. So every quarter, we do two new reports. We conduct surveys focused on marketing strategies and tactics. Some of the latest ones we’ve done—we did one on podcasting, which is very interesting. We released this one about three weeks ago. This one’s gotten crazy media hits. Like, we’ve gotten over 30 media hits on this one.  PPC covered us, because it’s sexy still. Podcasts are sexy. But we had a lot of findings, and I’ll share the link with you. We don’t charge for our research. It’s free. We offer it to people so that they could do better marketing. Now, the thing that was most intriguing about that report for me, out of a lot of things, was that people are measuring the wrong thing as it relates to podcast marketing. You’ll see the results, but I remember these numbers. 57% are measuring engagement and downloads.  And that’s the wrong thing to measure. I’m going to segue to that later. The right thing to measure if you're a business is pipeline and revenue, not engagements and downloads.Share on X And the quote that I did on an article that I did recently is, “Downloads are vanity. Contacts and contracts are sanity.” Okay? You have to measure the right things. If you’re not a media company selling ads, who cares about downloads? So anyway, podcasts. We did a GTM report. We did one on public relations.  The other one that got a lot of really good traction earlier this year was one on chatbots. We analyzed over 5,700 citations to figure out what exactly are chatbots looking for. And we took a look at those 5,700 citations. It was a breakdown of Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok. And so we said, why and what do these value? It changed the way that we actually post content on our site and our clients’ sites. So that’s a really valuable report that I would literally just take from our site, download into Claude, and say, “Based off of this report from Outcomes Rocket, how should I change up my copy and how I lay out my posts?” Because that’s going to help you get more AI visibility.  We actually have been running those plays on clients, and our numbers on ChatGPT and Claude Search and Gemini Search have gone up for them, right? It’s working. So we do this thought leadership stuff because we don’t like to experiment with our clients’ money. We like to actually do stuff that works and actually figure things out. So that’s thought leadership. And then the podcast is another thing that we do. So I love podcasting, Steve, as we were talking about before we hit record. I get a chance to connect with awesome people. Like, I keep thinking about Summit OS.  I’m going to learn about it on my podcast. I guess I can’t learn it on this one, but I get to meet people like you. We get to connect with listeners, like the ones—like, you’re listening to this because you want to be better. You want to improve your business, and it’s a chance for me to connect with you right now. And I’m going to invite you to reach out to me if something that I said resonates with you, because that’s why we do this. So podcasts are one of our great funnels, Steve. We do podcasting, and we meet a lot of great friends and collaborators and partners and clients through podcasting. And also conferences. So conferences are another amplifier for us. So I would say thought leadership, research, podcasting, and conferences are the best ways for us to grow our business. That's how we do it.Share on X  That’s very insightful. What I’m not hearing here is cold calling, cold emailing, spamming people. You’re not doing any of that. What I’m hearing here is you are giving people great content. You’re teaching people, and you’re connecting with people.  Yes.  Because podcasts, I agree with you, it’s all about connecting with people at a deeper level around interesting topics. Conferences are the same thing. You create relationships, and then you can follow up with the people who you like at the conference and turn them into partners or clients or whatever.  Yeah.  I love it. Love that.  And Steve, you’re a really insightful guy. I’m glad you went to that point. And so I was sitting there literally probably like five months ago, and I was having a conversation with a client of ours, and she was like, “Man, these cold emails that we’re doing,” because they wanted to do them, “I mean, we’re seeing clicks, and we’re seeing opens, but we’re seeing no replies and no meetings booked.” And I said, “Because the way we have to do it is through content.” Yeah. You have to offer.  If you go fishing and your hook has no bait on it, you’re not going to catch any fish, unless a dumb fish runs into your hook. You don’t want that fish anyway, right? That’s what you’re going to catch. And so I said, because I am kind of a data geek, as I shared with you, I said, “I want to own this frustration that you have right now. And here’s what I’m going to do. I’m going to hire four lead gen agencies, and I’m going to put one on your account, I’m going to put two on our company, and I’m going to…” I had another client that I was having this conversation with. “I’m going to put another one on their account.” And so I paid for this research project.  I said, “I’m going to learn. I’m either going to learn how to do cold email really damn good because I’ve been not doing well at it.” Guess what? Secret. Nobody’s freaking doing good at it, okay? So, like, three months later, they failed miserably. Nobody was doing anything. So then I said, “Okay, let’s try this. Don’t ask for an appointment. I want you to, on this mass cold email project, I want to change the copy, and I want to put, ‘I want to invite you to my podcast.'” These are the same people that were not replying. Steve, I kid you not, man. Like, within one week, we had 13 people in line that want to talk to them. They’re thrilled. So my takeaway was, cool.  You know what? I’ve been playing too small in sort of these podcast outreaches. I mean, look, at the end of the day, it’s working, but I said, “I’m going to use this mass email failure and turn it into a success by inviting even more people.” So now what we’re doing is actually, with these pools of people that are interested, taking a look at webinars too, so one to few. One to one, one to few, so that we could serve the many.  And so from the ashes of those failures, not only did I feel better about myself, like, dude, nobody is winning at cold email marketing. Nobody. But if you’re thoughtful about it in the way that you do it and what you offer, it’s got to be content-forward. But anyway, I wanted to pick up on your insight there and share our experiment that we ran.  I think also that you and I have been doing podcasting a long time. It’s actually now a huge thing. When I started it, for the first five years, I had no idea what I was doing, why I was doing it. I enjoyed it.  Yeah.  But it wasn’t really a thing. And then now I realize that a lot of people are now starting to do podcasting, but when you have a brand-new podcast, people are going to be much more circumspect to engage with you because they assume it may just be a lead gen engine. But when you have an established podcast with a lot of episodes, then you are a legit media, and then they will engage.  So anyway, that’s an aside. So let me ask you this, Saul, because you’re really a systems thinker, and I like that. What is one thing that you are trying to actively figure out in your business right now?  Right now, the thing that I’m actively working to figure out is really scalability and processes around delivery. So we have a very talented team. We’re small but mighty. There’s 25 people on my team, right? What we do is very bespoke, and our clients really do love how we execute and get results for them. What I’m working on is to master our delivery model so that we are more in line with our clients’ business growth. A few of the things that we’re doing to that end is getting closer to revenue.  What I mean by that is, I don’t know about you, Steve, but my career was mostly in sales in medtech before starting the agency three years ago full-time. And I realized that whenever there was a crunch in a business, some of the first positions to go were marketing. But nobody ever got rid of salespeople. So I started having this conversation with my team about we have to get closer to revenue, right? Get closer to the revenue conversations, have clarity around the revenue conversations. Because if you're close to revenue and you're helping drive revenue, you become more indispensable.Share on X  We might get T-shirts. I was kidding around that our theme is indispensable, and we might get T-shirts that say “Indispensable.” But that’s what we’re working on right now, is solidifying and optimizing our delivery so that we are more indispensable and we can continue growing at the pace that we’ve been growing to the next goals in our year and then our five-year and our 10-year plan.  So essentially, are you saying that getting closer to revenue means getting more directly impacting revenue, more directly making sure that the client is increasing revenue? Because marketing, you can increase marketing, but if it doesn’t have an impact, then it’s going to go away. So is this what you mean?  Exactly.  Yeah.  Because again, back to the whole thing, the quote, right? Like, “Tactics are the noise you hear before the war is lost.” In marketing, it’s so easy to report on metrics. But if your metrics are not tied to revenue, good luck.  Yeah. And there are some people who are doing great marketing, but they are doing very poorly in converting their leads, and therefore they’re wasting the marketing, and they might fire the marketing agency because you don’t have any clients. But they actually are downstream screwing things up. And if you can help them there, then your marketing is going to be much more resilient.  Yeah. And we’re getting awesome feedback from our clients. They love this. They’re telling us what they need. Right now, where we’re at, it’s three. So we do our weekly reporting, right, to our clients on kind of like what we’re doing on campaigns and research projects and execution. And so in our weekly report-out, we are finalizing sort of these three slides that are essentially sales. Like, the first slide is essentially the top five opportunities for the month and where they’re at. Sales blockers, sales opportunities, and then big needs, like sales needs.  So when the sales call happens, we get a transcript from that call, and the marketer asks the questions about, “Hey, what’s holding you back? What could help you move these deals faster?” We get that transcript, and then we create sales enablement assets or landing pages or campaigns that help move those deals forward. And that’s been awesome. Like, being able to do that, that’s being close to revenue, and it’s something that we’re adapting and being responsive to client needs, and that’s sort of where it’s taken us recently.  Yeah, I love it. Blockers, opportunities, and needs. So how are needs different from resolving the blockers and capitalizing the opportunity? A lot of times there’s overlap there on both of those. Yeah. The overlap is that a blocker could pair with a need that we could solve. But sometimes a blocker could be out of our control. Like, hey, we were going to sell them our microscope, but the MRI machine broke, and now they need to spend money on the MRI machine. Sh*t. There’s nothing we could do. Like, we’re pushing this deal to next quarter. Now, you could try to do stuff, creative financing or stuff like that, and we could have those conversations, but there’s some things that are out of our control.  I wonder if it’s needs or wants. Because I was thinking that maybe the needs are what the client already articulated as something that they realize that they need in order to grow revenue, whereas the blockers and opportunities will give you ideas how you can grow it in ways that they have not thought about.  Yeah.  And therefore, maybe instead of needs, it is the wants, and the needs are the ones that you add based on the blockers and opportunities. I don’t know.  I like that. I like it. No, no, I like it. I like it. And is the idea that, like, wants is a little more creative and open?  No, wants is something that they already articulated themselves that they want to do because they realize that they need that. But they need to do other stuff that they haven’t realized, and that’s what you come up with based on the blockers and the opportunities.  Correct. Correct.  It’s the unidentified wants basically. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I like that. I like that. I’m going to give some thought to that, Steve.  Yeah.  I like the idea.  Thank you. Thanks for the opportunity to give you a framework, or a framework. I love it, man. I love it. I had to pull it out of you. I had to pull it out of you. Actually, I didn’t. I couldn’t do it. You gave it to me, right? No, no. When the student is ready, the teacher comes, right?  There you go. Well, in that case, the teacher was inspired by the student, but—  I love it.  Whatever.  I love it.  So you said it’s medtech and healthtech companies and payers also that you target? Medtech and healthtech. And the payers, we actually—our clients sell to payers. So we do have a payer podcast where we interview payers and vendors in the payer market. But yeah, our main clients are health technology. So think Software as a Service, AI companies in healthcare, and then medical technologies like medical devices, implantables, wearables, that kind of thing, FDA-approved devices and technologies. Software as a medical device, that’s the medtech space.  Yeah. Love it. So these are the ideal ones. So if these people are listening to this podcast or they are seeing you on social media, you’re promoting this podcast together, where should they go? What do you want them to check out? How can they connect with you?  Yeah. Thank you, Steve. If you’re in the healthcare space and you want to raise your marketing game, increase your revenue, increase awareness of what your company’s doing, we’d love to be a part of it, whether it be you consuming our content. We don’t expect anything from you. Our content is all on outcomesrocket.com. Or you could find me on LinkedIn.

The advice to “just trust the system” falls apart fast when you've already been gaslit by doctors, pressured toward induction, and made to feel like your own body can't be trusted. Jasmine shares the full arc from her first hospital birth, and the quiet unease that followed, to the radically different freebirth that changed how she sees motherhood, power, and herself.She opens up about a messy first pregnancy, an OB-led experience that included pressure around size, a threatened induction at 39 weeks, and the claustrophobic feeling of being managed instead of supported. But the deeper story is what happened after birth: postpartum isolation, dark thoughts she was too afraid to say out loud, and the people-pleasing pattern that kept her suffering silently.Then everything shifts. In her next pregnancy, Jasmine finds Free Birth Society, devours hundreds of hours of podcast stories, and starts to imagine something she never thought possible: having her baby at home, without a midwife, on purpose.If you want to connect with Jasmine, follow her on Instagram at @rootedandradiant.motherhood and you can find her website here.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Introducing LEMONADE, my newest training program.Six months, live, with me.

Sara's written multiple biographies on the UN's second Secretary-General and now writes children's books that tell quiet, sensitive kids their nature is a strength. Sara's bio reads like a checklist of impressive titles: award-winning author, poet, visual artist, biographer. What most people don't know is that she built all of it after walking away from a career in government contracting and Fortune 100 recruitment.Sara traded the boardroom for words, imagery, and ideas, and found herself drawn into the life of Dag Hammarskjöld, the introspective, poetic second Secretary-General of the United Nations. Sara calls her work on his life a true co-creation, a partnership across time. That partnership became two biographies, Decoding the Unicorn and Simply Dag, revealing a man who was fiercely intelligent and quietly revolutionary beneath his composed exterior.Sara calls her overall approach "eccentricity with purpose." That same philosophy runs through her children's book universe built around Dag the Unicorn, including How to Host a Unicorn and the bilingual Learning with Dag series, all written for quiet, sensitive kids and the adults who were once that kind of child.This work is for introverts and HSPs who rarely see themselves centered in stories about leadership, for parents wanting children's books that celebrate quiet strength, and for anyone curious about a UN figure history nearly let slip away. Decoding the Unicorn has already won a 2026 American Book Fest Award for Best Biography, and Sara's work has been featured on Yahoo Finance, FOX, and Fast Company.To learn more about the topics discussed, or to contact Sara directly, click the link below.Disclosure of Material Connection: This is a sponsored post.

You Don't Need More Speaking Opportunities. You Need a Better Way to Get Booked.If your strategy is simply to post more, polish your reel, collect a few testimonials, or wait for someone to discover you..You may be spending a lot of time creating visibility without creating Bookability.I say that from the speaker booking side of the business.Not because they aren't qualified.Not because they don't have something valuable to say.But because a potential buyer often can't quickly answer three basic questions:Who are you?What do you speak about?Why should we trust you with our audience?And if those answers aren't clear, the buyer has to work too hard to figure you out.That's where the game changes.The goal isn't simply to become louder online.It's to become more findable, more credible, and easier to hire.CEO of WPC Speakers Global, Antoniette Roze, joins Cate Stillman, Founder & CEO of Club Thrive Global as a guest on the Wellness Pro Academy Podcast to share deep expertise, strong stories, and valuable ideas to turn that expertise into speaking and corporate training opportunities.Here's the better way:Build a clear, marketable message.Your expertise may cover ten different subjects, but your buyer needs to understand your core value quickly. If your talk could describe 20 different speakers, it becomes much harder for someone to remember what makes you the right fit.Make your expertise searchable.Your LinkedIn profile, website, social content, interviews, podcasts, speaker page, and marketing materials should tell a connected story. When someone searches your name or your area of expertise, they should find evidence that reinforces the same positioning.Create proof around your expertise.Being an expert and being perceived as a safe choice are two different things. Testimonials, recognizable logos, previous speaking engagements, interviews, client results, media appearances, and strong content give buyers more reasons to believe you can deliver.Stop treating free opportunities as the finish line.A podcast, webinar, free talk, guest interview, or community presentation doesn't have to be valuable because it pays you immediately. It can create relationships, visibility, credibility, content, referrals, and future conversations—if you know how to leverage the opportunity.Think like a business, not just a speaker.Speaking is more than getting on a stage and delivering a great presentation. There is positioning, marketing, prospecting, relationship-building, follow-up, sales, content, and client experience happening behind the scenes.That entire ecosystem matters.And here's the myth I want more experts to let go of:You don't need one magical opportunity to change your speaking career.The TEDx stage.The big conference.The famous podcast.The agent.The viral post.None of these should be your entire strategy.You need to build an ecosystem that continuously makes you easier to discover, easier to understand, easier to trust, and easier to book.Because the better question isn't:“How do I get lucky enough to get booked?”It's:“How do I position myself so that when the right buyer is looking for someone like me, they can quickly see the fit?”That requires more than talent.It takes clarity, consistency, credibility, relationships, persistence, and tenacity.And most importantly, it takes building a speaking business that doesn't depend on someone randomly discovering you.Get yourself very findable and not a gamble.Don't wait to be discovered. Get findable. Get credible. Get booked.Tune in now and learn how to turn your expertise, visibility, and credibility into a speaking strategy that gets you in front of the right buyers.LEARN MORE at https://taplink.cc/1antoniette

For founders who built a software company without big venture rounds, the exit playbook looks different. Raising little or nothing keeps your options open, but it also means you have to build a company worth buying without the fuel VC-backed peers spend on sales, marketing, and product. In this episode, Mike Lyon sits down with Greg Head, founder of Practical Founders, to discuss how bootstrapped SaaS founders keep their optionality, why AI is shifting the calculus for smaller and middle-market software companies, and the specific steps to prepare for a transaction on your own terms.Vista Point Advisors is a boutique sell-side investment bank providing unconflicted M&A and capital raising advice to founder-led software, AI, and internet businesses.

I am going to do this one differently. Normally I lay out the case for a channel and then tell you who it suits. Today I am starting with the answer, because this is a question we get asked all the time and it deserves a straight response rather than a long build-up. The question is: is YouTube worth it for a recruitment or search business? My honest answer, for most of you reading this, is no. Not because the audience is not there. It is. YouTube has the biggest reach of any channel we have covered in this series, and it is not close. And not because the content would not work. It would. It is because of what YouTube asks of you. And it comes down to one thing that only you can answer. Are you comfortable on video? And will you still be comfortable on video in nine months, when the view counts are still small, and nobody has booked a call off the back of it? That is the real question. Everything else follows from it. So let me take you through what the data says, why I have landed where I have, and then the cases where I would change my mind. Because there are some, and you might be one of them. The Audience Is Enormous, and That Matters Let us start with size, because this is where YouTube is genuinely different from everything else we have looked at. In the UK, YouTube reaches 55.5 million people. That is 79.7% of the population. That comes from Google's own advertising data, compiled by DataReportal in November last year. In Australia, 21 million people. That is 77.7% of the population. In the US, around 253 million. There is a better piece of data behind that American number, and it is the one I would hold on to. Pew Research, in November last year, found that 84% of US adults use YouTube. It has the highest reach of any platform Pew measures. And it is the only one where a majority of every single age group uses it. 95% of 18- to 29-year-olds. 92% of 30- to 49-year-olds. 85% of 50- to 64-year-olds. And 64% of those over 65. Ofcom put UK adult usage at 94%. Why does that matter to you? Because in every other channel in this series I have had to tell you that the people who hire you might not be there. Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, all of them come with that caveat. YouTube does not. The hiring managers you want are on YouTube. So are the candidates. So is everybody. And they do not just drop in. UK adults spend around 51 minutes a day on YouTube. In the US it is about 35 minutes. One thing I want to be straight with you about before we go further. If you go looking for a global user figure for YouTube, you will find anything between 2.53 billion and 2.85 billion depending on who you read. Google does not publish an official number. So I am giving you the three country figures instead. Those are clean, and they are the ones that matter to you. So Why Am I Telling You Not to Bother? Fair question. If the audience is that big, why is this not a yes? Because reach isn’t the same as relevance, and YouTube isn’t built for what most of you need. YouTube is a search engine. Google owns it, and people use it the way they use Google. They type in a question, and they watch the answer. That is a real strength for a certain kind of content. Somebody typing in a question about a counteroffer, what a role pays, or whether they should be using a search consultant has a live problem. If your video is the answer, you have met them at exactly the right moment. But look at what that means for you. You are not going out to find people. You are waiting for people to come and find you. That is brand building, not lead generation. It is slow. The upside is that it compounds, and I do not want to undersell that. A video you post this month can still be bringing people to you in three years. A LinkedIn post is finished in about seventy-two hours. Nothing else you do has that shelf life. The downside is what you cannot do. YouTube gives you no way to put your content in front of hiring managers specifically. LinkedIn does. On LinkedIn, you can pick a job title, a company size, and a seniority level. On YouTube, you get broad interests and broad demographics, and that is about your lot. So you cannot go hunting for clients on YouTube. You can only build something and hope the right people search for it. The people who market for a living have already worked this out. Hootsuite's 2026 figures show 85% of business-to-business marketers name LinkedIn as their highest return channel. Facebook is second at 28%. YouTube is third at 22%. Those add up to more than a hundred because people could pick more than one. A separate survey from September last year asked marketers generally how they rated YouTube's return. 33% said it was strong. Facebook was at 54%, Instagram at 43%. So YouTube is not a bad channel. It is a middling channel for business-to-business, rated by people with far more time and budget than you have. What YouTube Asks of You Now, the cost- and I do not mean money. Uploading a video is easy. Anyone can do it. Building an audience is a different job entirely, and three things have changed in the last eighteen months that made it harder than it used to be. One. YouTube changed what it rewards. Watch time used to be the main ranking signal. It is not any more. It is now viewer satisfaction: whether people say they enjoyed it in the surveys YouTube runs, whether they come back and watch again, and whether they keep watching after yours. That was confirmed by Todd Beaupre, YouTube's Senior Director of Growth and Discovery. The good news is that a strong three-minute video can now beat a padded ten-minute one. The bad news is you are being marked on something you cannot see in your own numbers. Two. Shorts and long videos are now two separate systems. They were split at the end of 2025, and completely different algorithms rank them. So if you planned to post a Short, get traction, and have that pull people toward your longer videos, that no longer happens. A Short doing well lifts nothing else. Two formats, two audiences, two jobs. Three. Shorts now get about an hour to prove themselves. You have a 30- to 60-minute test window after you post. In that hour, YouTube decides whether to push it further or let it go quiet. The retention bar is high: around 65% for anything under 30 seconds, around 50% for 30 to 60 seconds. Miss it, and the video is done. There is also a filter now that suppresses repeated formats and recycled hooks. So the make-one-thing-and-rework-it-fifteen-ways approach that works elsewhere works against you here. And as of May this year, AI disclosure rules became enforceable, with automatic detection flagging undisclosed AI-generated content and limiting how far it travels. Worth knowing if you are using AI tools to help produce video. Add all that up. To do YouTube properly, you need to film consistently, edit, write titles that work as search terms, design thumbnails people click on, read retention data, and keep going for months before any of it means anything. And then there is the time. This is the part every article you read about YouTube skips, so let me say it plainly. Filming takes time. Not the six minutes the video runs for. The setup, the retakes, the editing, the thumbnail, the title, the upload, and then going back in a fortnight to see how it did. You are running a small team. Most of you are still carrying a desk yourself. So where is that time coming from? Because it is not coming from nowhere. It is coming out of business development, delivery, or your evening. I could not find a reliable hours-per-week benchmark for this, and I am not going to invent one. Instead, I suggest you film one video properly, start to finish, and time yourself. Then multiply that by however many weeks you think you will keep it up. That number is the real cost of the channel, and it is usually what stops people, not the marketing. And before anybody asks, yes, AI avatar tools now can read your script with a face that is not yours. I would not recommend it. You are in a people business, selling trust, and the moment somebody realises they are watching a synthetic version of you, you have lost the very thing you were trying to build. There is also the point I just made about disclosure, so you could end up paying that price for a video that does not get seen anyway. Some of you can do all this. Most of you have a business to run. A Question to Consider So here is where it comes down to you, not the platform. Are you comfortable on camera? Not would you like to be. Not could you learn. Comfortable this month, filming yourself talking for six or seven minutes without four retakes and a knot in your stomach. Be honest with yourself on this one, because a lot of people answer it with the version of themselves they intend to become. If the answer is no, YouTube is the wrong place to start. You would be taking the format you find hardest and putting it on the platform that demands the most consistency. That combination is why so many recruitment channels have four videos on them from two years ago. If the answer is yes, I have different advice, and it might surprise you. Put the video on LinkedIn. If you are comfortable on camera, the video is the valuable thing. The platform is secondary. Your clients are on LinkedIn, and when somebody there reacts or comments, you know exactly who they are, and you can follow up the same day. On YouTube, you get a view count and no idea who was behind it. Then, if you want, put the same video on YouTube afterwards so it is searchable, and so you have got somewhere to point people. Use YouTube as your library. Not as your shop window. That is the position I would take with almost every member we work with, and it is what I would say to you if we were on a call. When I Would Change My Mind There is a version of this where I would tell you to go all in. Three conditions, and I would want all three, not two out of three. One. You are comfortable on video, and you will still be doing it in a year. Not a burst. A habit. YouTube rewards people who keep showing up, and it does little for people who don’t. Two. You work in a sector where people research slowly. Executive search. Technology. Professional services. Anywhere a hiring manager might spend weeks working out what they need before they speak to a single recruiter. That long consideration period is what YouTube's search function does well. If you are in high-volume, fast-turnaround staffing, this is not your channel. Nobody is watching an eight-minute video before they apply for a shift. Three. You already have the content. Testimonials you could film. Market commentary you give away on every call anyway. The same six questions every candidate asks you. If you are starting from a blank page and a blank channel, that is two jobs, not one. All three true? Build it properly. Two out of three? Do the videos on LinkedIn and use YouTube as the archive. One out of three? Leave it alone and put the time into a channel that will pay you back sooner. If You Are Going to Do It, Do This If you ticked all three, here is the practical part. The formats that suit a recruitment or search business are the ones that answer questions people already type in: Candidate and client FAQs Role explainers and day in the life videos Market insight and salary commentary Short testimonial clips from happy clients A few things that make a real difference: Build playlists and series rather than posting one-offs. They keep people watching longer, and session length is now one of the strongest signals for long videos. Write your titles as search terms, not as clever headlines. This is a search engine. Think about what someone would type. For Shorts, 30 to 45 seconds is the sweet spot for clearing the retention bar. If your channel is under 50,000 subscribers, use your own voiceover rather than trending audio. Original audio gets a ranking benefit at that size. And the mistakes worth avoiding: Recycling the same hook and the same format over and over. That gets suppressed now. Posting a Short and walking away. Watch the first hour, because that is the window that decides its fate. Assuming a Short doing well will lift your longer videos. It will not. They were decoupled at the end of 2025. For measurement, YouTube Studio gives you everything you need for free. The numbers to watch are average view duration and retention percentage, click-through rate on your thumbnails, subscriber growth, and for Shorts, whether people swipe past in the first few seconds or stay. Note what is not on that list. Views. Views are the number everyone looks at and the one that tells you the least. What the Advertising Costs A quick word on paid, because people ask. YouTube advertising runs through Google Ads; it is auction-based, and there is no rate card. The short version: it is cheap to be seen. Skippable ads, the ones people can skip after five seconds, run at pennies per view. One 2026 analysis covering over a million dollars of ad spend put the average at just under 3 cents a view and 49 cents a click. Being seen has never been the hard part, though. Being remembered by the right person is. Two caveats before you plan a budget off any of that. Those are global and US-blended figures, because I couldn’t find separate UK, US, or Australian benchmarks. I also couldn’t verify a minimum spend for YouTube ads. One thing worth knowing if you do go paid. 59% of people now see YouTube ads on a television screen rather than a phone or a laptop, and that changes what a good video looks like. What I Could Not Find I want to be open about something, because this series is meant to be straight with you. I could not find a single verified recruitment case study for YouTube. Not one with numbers I would be willing to read out to you. Plenty of general video marketing data exists. Agency case studies don’t separate YouTube from everything else running at the same time. No recruitment-specific, independently checked evidence shows a recruitment or search business built its client base on YouTube. I am not going to invent one to make this post feel more complete. That absence is part of the answer. If YouTube were reliably working for businesses like yours, somebody would have published the numbers by now. Pulling It Together YouTube has the biggest and broadest audience of any channel in this series. Around eight in ten people in the UK and Australia. 84% of American adults, and the only platform where a majority of every age group is present. The people who hire you are on it. It works like a search engine, which means it compounds and keeps working long after you post. That is a genuine advantage nothing else gives you. But it gives you no way to target the people you want; it ranks third for business-to-business behind LinkedIn; and it asks for months of consistent filming and editing before it gives you anything back. That is hours a week out of a diary that is already full. So my answer to the question we get asked is this. For most micro and small recruitment and search businesses, YouTube isn’t worth building as a channel. If you are comfortable on camera, make the videos and put them on LinkedIn where your clients already are. Use YouTube as a library underneath, so the work stays findable. And if you are not comfortable on camera, please do not start here. Start where you can be consistent, because consistency beats the platform every time. I hope that has been useful. Thanks Denise How We Can Help You Choosing the right two or three channels and leaving the rest alone is one of the most valuable decisions you will make this year, and it is one of the first things we work through with new members inside Superfast Circle. Our members get the content written for them, monthly coaching, and a clear plan for where their marketing effort goes so they are not spreading themselves across six platforms and getting nowhere on any of them. The post Is YouTube Worth It for Your Recruitment Business? appeared first on Superfast Recruitment.

Twenty years in education, twenty-five in business, and a thriving remedial therapy practice she built from scratch, all of it looked like a career built on strategy. It wasn't. It was built on a harder lesson: change doesn't happen from the outside in.That lesson came from the accident itself. During recovery, a Buddhist nun taught Cindy to work with pain through the mind-body connection. What started as survival became a lasting question: why do some people stay stuck in old patterns while others reinvent themselves? That question became Mind Garage, a practical, science-informed approach to mindset and manifestation built on identity, not vision boards. Her framework asks one uncomfortable thing: are you making decisions as who you were, or as who you're becoming?Mind Garage works with purpose-driven business owners who know they're capable of more but keep getting pulled back by old habits. They're not looking for another strategy session. They're looking for the shift underneath the strategy, the one that makes follow-through feel natural instead of forced.Cindy's warmth and honesty have made her a favourite on shows like 5 Minutes to Change Your Life, Wealthy & Wise and Basic Bananas. She's currently writing Manifest YOU: How to Step into the Future You to Change Everything.To learn more about the topics discussed, or to contact Cindy directly, click the link below.Disclosure of Material Connection: This is a sponsored post.

In this episode, Roy sits down with Brian D. Ridgway, "The Spellbreaker" and founder of Level 5 Mentoring, alongside Abigail Morgan, CEO of Level 5 Mentoring and a 27-year veteran of the coaching world. Brian shares the extraordinary story of January 3rd, 2011 — the day he hit total rock bottom, about to be homeless with his pregnant wife and two kids, and experienced an awakening that instantly transformed his relationship with his own mind. He unpacks where the "Spellbreaker" name actually came from, walks through his Five Paradigms that he says govern how every person on the planet experiences their inner world, and lays out his "Five Spells from Hell" framework — the mental patterns he believes quietly run beneath most people's stress and stuckness. Abigail shares her own turning point — 27 years deep in the coaching industry, including 8 years running Martha Beck's practitioner training program, and how a decades-long physical pain vanished in a single 10-minute session with Brian after years of other practices hadn't touched it. For anyone drawn to stillness and inner work, this conversation offers a different lens on what actually releases tension held in the body and mind. They close with how this applies to parenting, to animals, and where to start if a four-day retreat in Hawaii isn't realistic right now. Timestamps 0:02 – Introducing Brian D.

In this episode, Roy sits down with Brian D. Ridgway, "The Spellbreaker" and founder of Level 5 Mentoring, alongside Abigail Morgan, CEO of Level 5 Mentoring and a 27-year veteran of the coaching and spiritual world. Brian shares the extraordinary story of January 3rd, 2011 — the day he hit total rock bottom, about to be homeless with his pregnant wife and two kids, and experienced an awakening that instantly transformed his life and revealed a childhood gift his own parents had once tried to suppress. He unpacks where the "Spellbreaker" name actually came from, walks through his Five Paradigms that he says govern how every person on the planet experiences consciousness and reality, and lays out his "Five Spells from Hell" framework in full. Abigail shares her own turning point — 27 years deep in the coaching industry, including 8 years running Martha Beck's practitioner training program, and how a decades-long physical pain vanished in a single 10-minute session with Brian after nothing else had touched it. They also explore applying this work to parenting and even to trauma in animals, and close out with where people can start if a four-day trip to Hawaii isn't in the cards.

“The ability to handle yourself in interviews and other high-pressure situations can make the difference in getting the job and achieving your goals.”A successful interview is more than answering questions well. It's an opportunity to communicate what sets you apart and demonstrate the value you can bring. Preparation, structure, and storytelling can help you do that with confidence. In this Quick Thinks episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Matt Abrahams and communication teacher Laura Joyce Davis share strategies for preparing for job interviews. From identifying what differentiates you to structuring answers and telling memorable stories, they explain how to present your experience with clarity while staying authentic and human.Takeaways:Preparation makes confidence easier. Identifying what sets you apart and stockpiling stories, examples, and evidence helps you answer questions clearly while staying present in the moment.Structure turns experience into a stronger answer. Frameworks like “What? So what? Now what?” help you connect your skills and experiences directly to what matters to the interviewer.Activity:Build your interview bank. Create a simple bank of three strengths you want an interviewer to remember. Under each, add one story, piece of evidence, or testimonial that proves it. Use the bank to quickly assemble relevant answers rather than memorizing responses to individual questions.Episode Reference Links:Laura Joyce DavisThink Fast Talk Smart Learning CommunityConnect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedIn Chapters:(00:00) - Introduction (00:56) - Preparing for Your Interview (03:37) - Structuring Your Answers (05:02) - The ADD Framework (07:51) - Practicing for the Interview (09:16) - Storytelling That Stands Out (10:39) - Conflict, Beats, and Transformation (14:28) - The One-Minute Story Exercise (15:32) - The Importance of Pre-Work (16:45) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.With Hiring Pro, you can hire with confidence, knowing you're getting the best talent for your needs.

It is such a joy to provide a space where we can honestly and hopefully look to Jesus in our postpartum seasons. As a mom herself, Tara has experienced postpartum first hand. It's joyful and wonderful with your sweet baby, but what not many people talk about is how hard, isolating, confusing, and hard it can be. Annie Vanderheiden is a fellow mom, sister-in-Christ, and the author of a new book all about Christ's care for postpartum moms. Tara and Annie look at how we can look to Him when our hormones are raging, how to take care of ourselves, what it means to reach out and be real with one another as we struggle, and so much more. Annie offers gospel hope to new moms in a disorienting season. Even as you perform daily tasks of feeding, soothing, and nurturing your child, Christ does the same for you. If you're a mom going into postpartum soon, are currently in it, or know someone who is having a baby soon, this is for you!

When a child is constantly irritable, having prolonged tantrums, or struggling with speech and regulation, parents are often left wondering what is really going on. In this episode, Dr. Holly Carling and Alicia share the story of a young boy whose behavior changed dramatically after underlying health concerns were addressed. Dr. Holly explains what she noticed in this child's health history, including signs of anemia, dietary issues, and significant sugar consumption. She also discusses why behavior can be a form of communication, what parents can investigate when something feels off, and why addressing the body may be an important first step before focusing only on behavior modification. In this episode: How anemia, blood sugar instability, food sensitivities, sleep disruption, and other underlying health concerns can show up through childhood behavior What Dr. Holly noticed in this child's health and the dietary and nutritional changes that were recommended Why reducing sugar and supporting blood sugar stability made such a noticeable difference in this child's behavior What parents can look at when a child is persistently irritable, fatigued, reactive, or struggling with sleep, speech, or regulation   For full show notes, resources, and links, head to: https://vitalhealthcda.com/podcasts/   The Vital Health for You Podcast is for everyone.

How can we hold onto hope in the midst of autoimmune and chronic illness? In today's episode, Tara is sharing the whole story of her personal journey with fibromyalgia, from the beginning to now. Not only does she share her thirteen-year-struggle with this illness, but also how God has refined her faith through it. Spoiler alert: It's been messy at times and it would be an understatement to say that her faith was questioned during the process. But God is kind, faithful, and wastes nothing. If you're struggling with a chronic illness today, I hope you walk away knowing that what we may consider a setback in our life can truly be used as a setup and divine sanctification by our Heavenly Father.

Does life feel a little bit "mundane" lately? Whether it's school drop-off, the routine of work, the comparison on social media, or anything else that we run into during the day, the temptation is to look around and wonder if our everyday tasks and moments really matter. Are we really making a difference for the kingdom? How does the laundry and dishes really matter in the kingdom? Ruth Simons is returning to the show to talk about her newest book, This Moment Matters. We're talking about how to cultivate joy "in the trenches" of everyday life, how God's grace meets us in every single moment, practical steps to create a life that you love AND brings God glory, creating a Scripture memory station, and so much more. Through vulnerable testimony, powerful honesty, and biblical wisdom, Tara and Ruth are getting real about where they've felt mundane, but how God has turned it into something meaningful. And He sure can do it for you too. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch Truth Talks with Tara on YouTube here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!

When founders picture selling their company, they often focus on one thing: the price. But who sits on the other side of the table shapes far more than valuation. It changes how the deal gets structured, how fast it moves, what buyers dig into during diligence, and what life looks like after closing. In this episode, managing directors Mike Lyon and Jeff Bean discuss the different buyer types software founders are most likely to meet, how they think about value, and what founders should weigh before deciding who fits.Vista Point Advisors is a boutique sell-side investment bank providing unconflicted M&A and capital raising advice to founder-led software, AI, and internet businesses.

For twenty-five years we sent the struggling kid to the back of the room with headphones on. Todd Brekhus of Renaissance explains why that model broke personalized learning, and how teacher-facing AI hands the room back to you. Todd Brekhus is Chief Product Officer at Renaissance, General Manager of Nearpod, a former English teacher and technology director, and the creator of the myON literacy platform. We recorded this conversation at ISTE 2026. In this episode, you'll learn: - Why "personalized learning" quietly pushed teachers out of the loop, and what changes when you say "personalized teaching and learning" instead - How to pull last year's skill-level data and plan two paths before tomorrow's lesson - Why back-of-the-room intervention stigmatizes kids, and how to differentiate inside the core lesson - The case for a formative check every six to eight minutes without leaving your slides - Why Renaissance deliberately chose not to build student-facing AI, and what productive struggle has to do with it This episode is sponsored by Renaissance. Renaissance Intelligence connects the loop across assessment, curriculum, instruction, practice and proficiency, so educators can act on student needs in real time.

A trained psychologist. A certified resilience and executive coach. The person other professionals turned to when their stress was getting the better of them. Underneath that, she was running on adrenaline and willpower, delivering results and showing up for everyone else while quietly falling apart herself.Gudrun is a psychologist by training and a certified resilience and executive coach by practice. She lectures, she consults, and she's spent years working with professionals across industries and leadership levels, coaching in both German and English through her practice SMITH-Consult. Before any of that, she built a career on being the person who could handle anything.The turning point wasn't dramatic on paper. A health scare, nothing catastrophic, but loud enough to stop her. She realised she'd built a successful career at the cost of nearly everything else: her sleep, her relationships, her sense of who she was outside of work. She'd told herself she'd slow down after the next project, the next milestone, the next quarter. Her body made the decision for her instead.Out of that, she built START-with-Gudrun. It's not about becoming someone who never feels stress. It's about learning to recover, regulate, and perform sustainably over the long term, using evidence-based tools drawn from cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and emotional regulation. She tested every piece of it on herself first, before she ever brought it to a client.Her clients are the ones living the life she used to live: entrepreneurs and professionals whose workday never really ends. Emails after dinner, racing thoughts at midnight, weekends that don't feel like weekends. They're constantly available but never fully present, and the boundary between work and rest has quietly disappeared. Gudrun helps them find it again, not through a pep talk, but through practical, science-backed strategies that fit into a real workday.Her work and insights have been featured across media and professional circles focused on stress management and resilience, and she brings the lived experience of recovering from burnout herself into every session she runs.To learn more about the topics discussed, or to contact Gudrun directly, click the link below.Disclosure of Material Connection: This is a sponsored post.

Happy first birthday to "Overbooked and Overwhelmed", one of my special book babies! It's been 365 days since this book was officially launched into the world and today, we're sitting down to talk all about it. In today's episode, Tara is gushing with gratitude for you and the ways the Lord has been faithful through this message, how she personally was challenged by this theme over the last year, ways she's messed up and tried again, and so much more. What does this message mean for you? How could this change your life? Let's recount God's faithfulness together, shall we? Get your copy of Overbooked and Overwhelmed!
