I'm really happy to bring you this episode today, but it comes with a content warning, because it includes discussion of suicide. For a long time, I've wanted to have a story about hoarding. This is something I personally find really interesting. We've all seen pictures or videos of the inside of the home of someone who's a hoarder. And of course, the reality TV show, Hoarders, puts it right out there. And everyone sees that and wonders, how does someone allow their environment to get to that point? And then I discovered Margy. She works in the podcast industry. I guess you could say I knew “of” her, and then later we became more connected because she's a listener of this podcast, and I've watched what she's been doing to achieve some amazing business success. When I found out that she had dealt with hoarding first hand, I knew I wanted to have her on the show. But what I love about this story is that it's not just about the shocking reality of dealing with the hoarding issue. Some of the things Margy and I talk about are How she channeled grief into energy How a seemingly impossible challenge made her unstoppable The one unexpected thing that a lot of high achievers have in common And the bizarre name she came up with for her podcast Just before our conversation, you'll hear a brief (1 minute) clip from the very first episode of Margy's podcast.

Margy is joined by Alicia Cramer on this episode of We Get it Your Dad Died. Growing up, Alicia's mother went through a series of abusive relationships and would often drop her off at a relatives house to stay safe. As she got older, she realized that she was repeating the self-destructive patterns that her mother had demonstrated for her. The healing that she needed was not happening, and instead her anxieties grew to the point where they were running her everyday life. Was she going to let them?   Alicia dove into every holistic healing modality that she could find. As she explored about the principles of energy, she realized that the first step was to take personal responsibility.

In the first episode of season 3 for We Get it Your Dad Died, Margy Feldhuhn invites Suzy Ashworth to discuss the loss of her parents.

They explore how the relationship between themselves and their loved ones evolve even after they pass, and how these reflections impact their lives.

In this episode of We Get it Your Dad Died, Margy Feldhuhn is joined by Sam Jayanti. At 12 years old, both of Sam's parents and her brother died in a plane crash. She was left with her nanny and her dog to recover from this tragedy. The three of them moved to India to live with Sam's aunt and uncle with this question: Will we survive this, or will it ruin us?  Listen to Margy and Sam discuss the impact this tragedy has had on her. She swallowed her vulnerability, and it wasn't until she was in college college when one person was the catalyst to begin her healing journey.

On today's episode of Monetize the Mic, Margy is sharing an episode from the most recent season of her podcast We Get It, Your Dad Died. This episode features an interview with Elisabeth Kristof of Brain Based Wellness. She is an expert in the nervous system and the information she shares in this episode can be relevant to business owners who are ready to take the next step, but are being held back by limiting beliefs.   “What if the things you feel most shame about have nothing to do with who you are as a person? This episode offers the most powerful gift of all; freedom from shame and self loathing.   In this finale episode of Season 2, we break from the norm. This conversation doesn't feature a death, but is one of the most profound and valuable conversations I've ever had.   We went deep into topics like codependency, binge eating, self harm and boundaries. Elisabeth Kristof shares incredible wisdom that will make you rethink everything you thought you knew about trauma, grief and those negative habits that seem to keep playing out in your life, no matter how much you try to change. When you look at your “toxic traits” through the lens of a dysregulated nervous system, you are suddenly free to drop the self judgment and shame and create a new possibility. Elisabeth also offers actionable tips to get regulated and start healing right away.   No matter who you are or what you've done, this episode will bring you peace. Learn more about Elisabeth's work at brainbased-wellness.com and check out her video drills to help you regulate your central nervous system when you're experiencing stress.”

To be human is to experience loss. Whether that's the loss of a loved one, the loss of a relationship, or the loss of normalcy, loss has the power to knock us down and keep us low. But after the initial shock, it also has the power to transform us—if we let it. (I know many of us have seen that first hand in the last year and a half!)  The first thing loss can transform is our beliefs about ourselves, which, as my guest on my upcoming webinar says, “can be an incredible gift.” This special live episode with guest Margy Feldhuhn. Margy is the CEO of Interview Connections, a podcast guest booking agency and the host of the podcast “We Get it: Your Dad Died.” Her refreshing perspective on grief will inspire you toward transformation, whether or not you're experiencing loss right now. Listen in for a healing conversation that takes the stigma out of grief, helps you identify the gifts that loss may have given you, and encourages you on your personal transformation journey.

Season two of Margy's show will be airing Fall 2021! You can listen to the entire first season of "We Get It, Your Dad Died" on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Libsyn, and Amazon.

In this episode of Monetize the Mic, Jess and Margy are talking about Margy's podcast We Get It, Your Dad Died. Since the last Monetize the Mic episode about WGIYDD aired in April, Margy has released her podcast and it has also won an award for Best Podcast at the Rhode Island International Film Festival. Margy gives some insight on how she schedules and batches her interviews for the show, why she does pre-calls with her guests, and what questions you should ask yourself when you decide to start your own show. Jess shares that she believes Margy's podcast is so good because she approaches it as a piece of art rather than just marketing material. You can listen to We Get It, Your Dad Died on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Amazon.

Yes it has been five years since we had Jessica Rhodes from Interview connections on the podcast. Since then Jessica has grown the business to a six and now 7 figure business. How did she do it? Small steps and "grind and grit". In this episode I reconnect with Jessica , 5 years in between episodes and ask her about some of the business moves she has made like getting a physical office space, partnering with Margy Feldhuhn, and working with female business coaches like Kelly Roach and Ali Brown. Jessica also notes there's a difference between scaling to 7 figures as opposed to 8; it's a different set of strategies to get to 8.Both Jessica (president) and Margy (CEO) have their own podcasts. You can find Jessica's "Monetize the Mic" here - and Margy's "We Get It, Your Dad Died" here. There was so much I didn't know about building a company in the podcast space when I first started back in 2016, but simply following Jessica and paying attention to how she operates, I learned a lot. There are about 7 people who I follow like that. It's not unlike listening to your favourite radio performer to hear their show every day - and learn how they connect.If you are in radio and wondering why you should listen to the show:(1) Because Jessica got to the top by not worrying about the copy cat competition.(2) Because you don't have a podcast and should consider guesting on podcasts if you aren't going to podcast.(3) Even if you have a podcast, learning to be a guest will help you become a better interviewer.Follow Jessica and everyone at Interview Connections on the Facebook Group Thanks also to the people who make this show possible every week including:PromosuiteJustin Dove at Core Image StudiosMegatraxSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Jess and Margy are the co-owners of Interview Connections, the first and leading podcast booking agency. This is the podcast to teach you how to transform your business and life with the power of visibility and strategy! On this episode of Monetize the Mic, Jess puts Margy in the guest spotlight to talk about Margy’s new podcast We Get It, Your Dad Died. Jess first asks Margy, why did you decide to start this podcast?In 2015, while Margy was living in Taiwan, she learned that her dad had died by suicide. As an only child, Margy was incredibly close with her parents and this was a life-shattering moment. Now, six years later, it still remains a horrible loss. However, Margy realizes that a lot of the things she has in her life she would not have if she hadn't been through such a challenging struggle. Margy started doing some research into high-achieving grievers and the relationship between loss and success. She wanted to start a show where she interviews high-achieving entrepreneurs who have suffered a serious loss. Margy wants to talk to them about what that experience was like, how it shaped them, and also what became possible in their life because of that loss. Margy wants to prove that there are ways to turn the setbacks into positives in our lives. A seed of her idea for this podcast came from Iconic, an Ali Brown event, in Miami on the beach, just days before lockdown in 2020. Margy started talking to a friend and fellow entrepreneur, Brandi Bernoskie, about the death of Brandi’s mom. She was really moved by Brandi’s story and felt like these conversations could be incredibly powerful on a podcast. Margy decided that her podcast would focus on interviewing 7-figure + entrepreneurs who have a story of loss that they are willing to share. Jess also wants to know, what was the process like of producing this podcast? Margy came up with the concept and she started posting in mastermind groups and the Interview Connections client network group to find people who would be interested in sharing their stories. She knew that she had entrepreneurial friends who were at this level who had incredible stories to share. The interviews gave the show the momentum that it needed. Margy just started recording the conversations and took it from there.  The next question Jess has for Margy is, who is your audience? Margy didn’t make this trying to please anyone in particular. Her goal was to share important and powerful conversations and to make a show that she herself loves. She feels like this podcast has a wide demographic. Margy’s hope is that this podcast will resonate with anyone who has experienced grief or loss. Secondly, Margy is interested in reaching entrepreneurs who are interested in how high-achievers approach setbacks. After giving interview after interview, Margy realized that her podcast gave a kind of blueprint for how to thrive through the most negative events. Finally, Jess asks, how do you monetize a show that is seemingly not related to your business? Margy explains that when you're a guest on podcasts, you're sharing your story and that is what is going to resonate with people. It’s not really an infomercial for your service or your product, you’re trying to get the listeners to resonate with you personally. All of the content that we create, when we genuinely want to be of service and do great work magnetizes clients to us no matter what industry we’re in!
