Would you let a stranger run up a bill in your name for 10 years and say nothing? That's exactly what you've been doing to yourself. The debt collector you've been avoiding is already staring back at you in the mirror. And this morning, 45 minutes before recording this episode, George sat in his car and scrolled YouTube Shorts for 15 minutes. He caught it. He's showing you exactly what he did next. This is a first-of-its-kind format for the show, a step-by-step implementation guide built from a guest interview. George takes Dr. Lester Clowes' concept of promised debt and turns it into an actionable, practical system you can start tonight. One kept promise. One small deposit. That's where it begins. What You'll Learn In This Episode: What promised debt is and why it's a debt problem, not a discipline problem How to identify where you're making withdrawals in your business right now Why big commitments make promised debt worse and what to do instead The embarrassingly small promise system and why it rebuilds trust faster than anything else The Gap vs. the Gain framework from Dan Sullivan and Benjamin Hardy Why gain thinking is the only operating system that makes this whole system actually work The one piece of scripture that ties the entire framework together Key Takeaways: ✔️Promised debt is what happens when you keep making promises to yourself and breaking them, one by one, silently. Most people are years in the negative and wonder why they can't trust themselves. ✔️This is not a discipline problem. It's a debt problem. The imposter feeling, the second-guessing, the burnout, it's almost always promised debt underneath. ✔️When you realize your balance is negative, the instinct is to go big. That's wrong. Bigger commitments make the balance worse when they collapse. The fix is embarrassingly small ones. ✔️If the promise doesn't feel a little embarrassing to write down, it's probably still too big. ✔️One kept promise that small, seven days in a row, rebuilds more self-trust than one heroic effort that collapses on day three. ✔️The Gap measures you against a moving future target. The Gain measures you against where you started. Promise debt only works long-term if you're running it through the Gain. ✔️Motivation comes and goes. The system, the physical ledger, the written promise, the checkmark, is what holds when motivation doesn't. ✔️Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much. Luke 16:10.

Have you ever wondered if your time management and productivity issues might not be about the amount of work you have to do, but rather the way you think about that work?  That's what we're looking at today.   Links: Email Me | Twitter | Facebook | Website | Linkedin   Learn more about the Productivity Academy Get Your Copy Of Your Time, Your Way: Time Well Managed, Life Well Lived Plan Your Week With Me: The Weekly Planning Matrix.

A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show.  Since I began helping people directly with time management and productivity, I would say that around 60% of people's struggles come down to the way they organise their work, around 35% come down to the way they think about it, and only 5% come down to the volume of work coming in.  Talk to practically anyone today, and they will tell you they are busy. It's almost like a badge of honour.  The number one reason people say they don't exercise is that they don't have enough time. Is that really true, or is it that they value doing something else more?  I'm reminded of something the legendary Jim Rohn used to say: “Don't mistake movement for achievement. It's easy to get faked out by being busy. The question is: Busy doing what?” If I look at my to-do list right now, I guess I am busy. I have this script, a newsletter and a long-form article to write. I also have to record three YouTube Shorts videos, edit them and record this podcast.  I have around five pieces of feedback to write for my coaching clients, do my exercise, take Louis for a walk, and cook dinner.  Yet, I don't feel busy. The reason is that I understand that it doesn't all have to be done today. All I have to do is decide what can be done today and do that.  The truth is, we all have far more to do than we can do at any one time. And equally true is that it doesn't have to be done right now or even today.  So, with all that said, let me hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question.  This week's question comes from Elaine. Elaine asks, hi Carl, what advice would you give to someone who is always busy and never has time to do their most important work?  Hi Elaine, love the question. Short and sweet.  I would first refer you to the Jim Rohn question ” Busy doing what?”  If you feel constantly busy from the moment you wake up until you go to bed, the first thing I would suggest is to look at what you are doing during your waking hours.  Write down what you are doing over a period of 48 hours or so. Not just your professional work, but your personal things too.  I would also add that you write out what you would prefer to be doing instead. Write these down side by side. Draw a vertical line down the middle of a page, and on the left write what you spend your days doing, and on the right what you would prefer to be doing instead.  Be completely honest. If you discover, for example, that you spend 90 minutes a day on social media and a further 2 hours watching TV, write that down.  You're not going to necessarily remove those. Instead, what you want to be asking yourself is whether spending time on the activities you currently spend time on is worthwhile.  Initially, you will try to justify spending time on these activities. This is the same response we have when someone challenges one of our opinions. Our natural instinct is to defend ourselves.  When you first write down these activities. Don't judge. Just write them down. All you want to know is precisely where your time goes.  I've found that if you leave it for a few days and come back to it, you will begin to look at things a little more objectively. Instead of trying to justify the expense of your time, you begin to ask questions such as: Do I really need to do that? And is this regular event I attend worth all the extra work it produces?  Often, the problem for many people is that everything they want to do requires time. Just sitting and thinking requires time, as does making a cup of coffee. Time never stands still.  And the problem with time, or rather, the way we measure time, is that we have 24 hours each day. That's the one immovable part we have to deal with each day, but at least that gives us one constant. That can be worked with. If you were to study the habits and routines of highly productive people, you would notice that they all have strong barriers between the three basics of their lives.  There's time for work, time for family and social life, and time for self.  There's no discipline involved. It's just a strict division of time between the three.  Their wake-up time is consistent. For example, if they wake up at 7:30 am, they wake up at that time every day, including weekends. Then they do something that I find most unproductive people don't do. They follow the same routine.  It's their morning routine.  Morning routines are interesting because each person's is different.  Yet, the most stressed-out, overwhelmed and exhausted people I work with have no morning routine. They crawl out of bed, rush out the door and start on their work. There's no moment for themselves.  These are the people who immediately pick up their phones to check for messages and start replying.  No tea or coffee or even a bathroom break. Just open eyes, open phone, start the workday.  Think about what's happening there. You come into the conscious world, and before anything else, you allow other people's priorities to take control of your day.  And if you have young kids, when you leave the bedroom, your kids need attention; perhaps you need to get them ready for school, make their breakfast, all this with a brain full of all those messages you just read from your phone before you left the bedroom.  One of my favourite YouTube channels is Harry's Garage. The channel is about cars, and Harry often reviews very expensive Rolls-Royces, Ferraris, Range Rovers, and Aston Martins.  These are highly tuned performance cars, yet Harry will always remind us that when you start a car cold, before you can put it through its paces, you need to give it time to reach optimal operating temperature.  Funnily enough, that's the same for you and me. You're not going to be at your best the moment you wake up, which means any decision you make first thing is unlikely to be the best decision you make.  So, try starting your day slowly. Give yourself thirty minutes and make sure those thirty minutes are focused on you.  When it comes to work, set a strict start time for yourself.  So, to keep the examples in line, let's imagine you start your work at 9:00 am. Then do not consider work before then. That may take a little adjusting to, but if you develop a strong set of morning routines, you won't be thinking about work until it's time for work.  Then, here's a trick. Do not allow anything to be scheduled for the first 30 minutes of your day. This is your getting a heads up on the day time. It's when you can say hello and chat with your co-workers, deal with any emergencies and check to make sure there are no fires lurking in your inbox.  Those thirty minutes are also a great time to review your plan for the day.  Now, when I say “plan,” I simply mean making sure you know where your appointments are and what your must-do tasks for the day are. It's a simple two-minute review and gives you time to map out your day.  Mapping out your day is just about deciding when you will do your must-do tasks. Your meetings are fixed, so what you are looking for is the gaps in between and deciding what you will do in those gaps.  Now here's the thing: just as it's important to have a strict start time, there also needs to be a strict closing time for work.  Let's imagine that you set 6:00 pm as your end-of-work time; this means that around 5:50 pm, you stop what you're doing, review what you've done, and reschedule anything you didn't get to.  Then look at what you have on your calendar for tomorrow, and decide on your two must-do tasks. That's it. Done.  Then it's family and social time.  Now, as you listen to these words, it may sound like a lot. But is it? What you are doing is automating as much as you can so you are not rushing around trying to decide what to do next. It's all this decision-making that's mentally exhausting you.  If you can automate these decisions by having a morning routine, a work closing-down sequence, and mapping out your workday, you'll find that you feel less busy, more in control and much less tired at the end of the day.  We feel so busy all the time because we tend to look at long lists of things to do. For example, if you look at your Slack messages or email, you are looking at each individual message. It's natural. It's a long list of stuff you feel you must attend to.  Yet, if you were to treat your Slack or Teams messages and email as one task, all you need to decide is when you will handle them.  For example, if you decide that at 4:30 pm you will work on your messages and spend an hour on them, then it doesn't matter how many messages you have in there. You will respond to as many as you can.  Another quick tip: start with the oldest first. These can often be dealt with much faster than messages that have just come in. Don't worry, if you stay consistent with this, you'll soon find yourself getting back on top of them.  Now, for those of you who tend to procrastinate, the science behind it is fascinating. Procrastination is a perfectly normal human reaction. It has nothing to do with laziness or any other human condition. It's actually what psychologists call an “emotional regulation response”. When you look at a long report or a messy inbox, your brain sees a threat. It anticipates boredom, failure, or making a fool of yourself. And so your brain sets off an alarm to protect you.  And how does it protect you? By pushing you towards easier tasks. Cleaning your desk or looking at social media, for example. (Or, in my case, cleaning a fountain pen and refilling it)  Incredibly productive people aren't immune to these negative emotions. Instead, what they have done is build systems and processes to do their work. “It's 4:30 pm, time to do my communications.” Oh, it's time to work on that report”.  These systems make it extremely difficult to not do the work.  This is why putting in place strict barriers around your personal, social and professional life works. You are not allowing your brain to set off an emotional response. You turn up, you know what to do and do it.  And this planning does not take much time. Planning the day may take 5 minutes; reviewing your plan in the first 30 minutes of your workday may take 2 minutes. That's it.  Then you follow your plan. Sure, there will be interruptions, distractions and other people's emergencies. Deal with them as best you can, then get back to your plan. If you have to revise your plan, do so. This does not mean you've failed. All it means is you've adjusted your plan.  I hope that helps, Elaine. Thank you for your question, and thank you to you too for listening.  It just remains for me now to wish you all a very, very productive week.   

How to Become Time Affluent PodcastFive Primary Points of the PodcastShort-form video can contribute to “brain rot.”Constant consumption of TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and similar content can create cognitive overload—contributing to mental exhaustion, reduced focus, diminished motivation, stress, anxiety, burnout, and potentially depression.Protect your attention—it is a finite resource.Attention is like a mental spotlight: focusing it on one person or task improves connection and performance. When attention is constantly fragmented by digital distractions, we become scattered and drained. Alexander Fleming's discovery of penicillin illustrates what can happen when we slow down, pay attention, and recognize something others might miss.Practice “digital hygiene.”Reduce short-form video consumption, turn off unnecessary notifications, limit distracting apps, and periodically unplug. Work in focused 30–45-minute intervals followed by short breaks, and support your brain with adequate sleep and exercise. These practices can improve focus, energy, decision-making, and awareness.Stop searching for shortcuts to vitality and longevity.The podcast strongly cautions against unproven anti-aging interventions, particularly peptides and other treatments promoted by longevity influencers without adequate human clinical evidence. Commercial enthusiasm has moved faster than rigorous research demonstrating meaningful benefits and long-term safety.A vital life requires doing hard things.There are no shortcuts to becoming physically, mentally, socially, and spiritually better. Losing weight, exercising when tired, overcoming adversity, repairing relationships, forgiving others, and finding purpose all require sacrifice and sometimes suffering. The larger goal is to lead a long and meaningful life with minimal regret.Vitality Action Suggestion: Stop scrolling short-form videos.

Building a thriving food blog by putting YouTube first, growing to 2 million subscribers on YouTube, and using social media to drive blog traffic with Jeanelle Castro from Jeanelleats. ----- Welcome to episode 583 of The Food Blogger Pro Podcast! This week on the podcast, Bjork interviews Jeanelle Castro from JeanellEats. Why Jeanelle Castro Thinks YouTube Is the Most Powerful Social Platform for Food Creators Jeanelle started Jeanelleats ten years ago while still working a 9-to–5 — but she knew she had always wanted to be an entrepreneur, and she always loved making videos. In 2016 she started posting on YouTube, got serious about tracking her metrics and posting consistently, and within a few months her channel started taking off. Today she has nearly 2 million subscribers on YouTube! In this episode, Jeanelle shares how she built a content system where YouTube is the engine that drives everything else — including her blog traffic, her Google rankings, and her brand deals. She explains how she uses YouTube Shorts to drive traffic to her site (her CTA is simple: "head to Jeanelleats for the recipe!"), and why she believes that the success of a social post and the performance of a blog post are more correlated than most creators realize. Three episode takeaways: Promoting YouTube videos of your recipes can improve your Google ranking — Jeanelle has noticed a real correlation between pushing a YouTube video of a recipe and that recipe's performance in Google search. Since YouTube is owned by Google, there's a connection between video engagement and search visibility that food bloggers with a YouTube presence can take advantage of. Combined with the branded search that grows when your social content performs well, this is another reason to prioritize video even if SEO has felt out of reach. What a YouTube first posting strategy looks like — Jeanelle publishes to YouTube first, then reposts to Instagram and TikTok. She explains her posting cadence, why YouTube is her #1 platform from both an audience and revenue perspective, and how she thinks about Instagram differently — it's less important for direct revenue, but it still matters for brand partnerships. Why Jeanelle is leaning into her blog and how it fits into her overall revenue — While brand deals remain her number one income source, her blog revenue has recently surpassed her YouTube AdSense revenue. The blog has become her priority precisely because it's the most stable and predictable of the three — and she's noticed a direct link between promoting YouTube videos of her recipes and improved Google rankings for those same posts (a win win)!

Marketing gets exhausting when every platform, conference, and industry trend comes with the message that your practice should be doing more. More posts, more videos, more channels, more events. But a high volume of marketing activity does not automatically lead to better clients or more profitable growth.  In this episode, I sit down with Robin Dimond, founder and CEO of Fifth & Cor, to talk about building a marketing strategy around the business you actually have. We cover how to choose channels based on your budget, bandwidth, and target demographic; when a personal brand helps or hurts the practice; and why reputation, local partnerships, and consistent patient education can outperform whatever happens to be trending online.  Fix the Patient Journey Before You Generate More Leads  Marketing brings more attention to whatever is already happening inside the practice. If calls go unanswered, the booking process is frustrating, or the team is not prepared to follow up with leads, spending more money will only expose those problems faster.  Look at the full patient experience before adding another campaign. Can someone easily book a consultation? Does the team know how to respond to inquiries? Are you attracting people who are a good fit for the practice? Strong marketing cannot make up for operational gaps that prevent interested patients from becoming long-term clients. Choose Marketing Channels With a Clear Reason Behind Them  You do not need to be active on every platform simply because another practice is doing it. The right marketing mix depends on who you want to reach, how they make decisions, and what your team can consistently manage. Budget planning also needs to account for time and energy—not just the money spent on ads or content creation.  Define what the marketing initiative needs to accomplish before choosing a channel  Identify where your target demographic spends time and what mindset they are in on each platform  Set a realistic budget for both financial investment and team capacity  Test one or two strategies on a small scale before expanding into omnichannel marketing  Batch and repurpose content across Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube Shorts, or Pinterest when those platforms fit the audience  Consider direct mail, local partnerships, conference attendance, and public relations alongside digital marketing  Track qualified leads, booked consultations, client acquisition costs, and patient retention instead of relying on views or engagement alone  Give the team a clear role in content creation and follow-up so the strategy does not depend entirely on the owner  Consistency matters, but it needs to be sustainable. A focused strategy that your team can maintain will usually produce better information and stronger results than constantly switching tactics or chasing the newest trend.  (00:03:42) Navigating an overwhelming number of marketing options (00:05:29) Fixing operational gaps before generating more leads (00:12:31) Understanding client mindsets across different platforms (00:17:27) Standing out with handwritten cards and direct mail (00:26:50) Building a sustainable social media strategy (00:30:16) Balancing personal branding with long-term business goals (00:43:37) Measuring marketing by results instead of effort  Your Practice Reputation Has to Extend Beyond the Owner  A personal brand can help patients connect with the practice, but it becomes a risk when every relationship, referral, and piece of recognition is tied to the owner. Bring providers and team members into the outward-facing side of the business so patients see the depth of expertise across the practice and trust the experience no matter who they see.  Sharing continuing education, patient education, community involvement, and team accomplishments builds a stronger reputation than relying on one personality alone. That matters when you want to add providers, reduce your clinical hours, or eventually sell, because a brand that can stand without the founder is much easier to scale. The Best Marketing Makes Growth Easier to Manage  When the strategy is focused, the financial reports become easier to interpret. You can see which channels produce qualified consultations, which local partnerships bring in the right patients, and whether your client acquisition costs make sense relative to the value of those relationships. Marketing stops feeling like an open-ended expense because every initiative has a purpose and a way to measure its performance.  As the practice grows, consistency matters more than constant visibility. A team-supported brand, a clear message, and a small group of channels that reliably attract the right clients are easier to manage and repeat across providers or locations. You should not have to spend every spare moment creating content just to keep the business moving. The strategy should support the practice without taking over your life.  Follow Shannon & Keep What You Earn:   Shannon Weinstein is the founder of a fractional CFO firm specializing in helping 7-figure aesthetics and wellness practices scale with clarity, cash flow, and confidence.  Shannon is committed to helping med spa owners understand, fix, and maximize their business's enterprise value, offering actionable advice and resources, including a popular free video series specifically for aesthetics practice owners.  Connect with Shannon: Fractional CFO Services and Executive Financial Review: https://www.keepwhatyouearn.com/  https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannonweinstein  Watch full episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@KeepWhatYouEarn  Listen on your favorite podcast app: https://pod.link/1580071347  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/shannonkweinstein/  The information shared is for educational purposes only and is not individualized financial advice.

This week on the How to Protect the Ocean podcast, Andrew kicks off a science communication series exploring how ocean advocates can spread awareness across every major content format. Today's episode digs into short-form video: TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts, and what it actually takes to make original content work when you're used to talking for an hour, not ninety seconds. Andrew is candid about his own struggle with the format, since most of his short-form output today is repurposed podcast clips rather than content built for the platform from the ground up. The conversation covers what separates a scroll-stopping short from one that gets skipped: a hook in the first one to three seconds, one idea per video, native casual style over polished production, readable captions, and consistency over perfection. Andrew points to Christian Parton's Shark Bites and KPassionate as creators doing this well across YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and Twitch, and explains how the algorithm on platforms like TikTok now prioritizes watch time and virality over follower count, meaning a single video from a small account can outperform everything else in a creator's catalog. The episode closes with a candid look at monetization: what TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels actually pay per view [VERIFY figures before publishing], why the real money in short-form tends to come from brand sponsorships, affiliate codes, and funneling viewers to a long-form platform or Patreon-style support, and why short-form works best as an entry point rather than a destination. This is the first episode in a week-long arc on science communication formats, building toward Friday's interview with Amy Weldon of Blue Collar White Coat. Takeaways Short-form content needs a hook in the first one to three seconds or the algorithm moves on Stick to one idea per video, delivered in one to three minutes Native, casual, direct-to-camera style tends to outperform overly produced content Captions matter because most viewers watch with the sound off The algorithm rewards watch time and virality over follower count, so small accounts can go viral Consistency over perfection is what builds a following over time Short-form monetization pay rates are modest [VERIFY]; real income tends to come from sponsorships, affiliates, and funneling to long-form or Patreon-style support Short-form is best used as an entry point into a creator's larger body of work, not the destination Support Independent Podcasts: https://www.speakupforblue.com/patreon Need help with your ocean non-profit, company, or project?

A writer's room where creators cross-edit each other's scripts. Hair, makeup, and wardrobe walkthroughs before anyone hits record. This is what organic content looks like at Kiyoko Beauty (kiyoko.ca), the curated Asian beauty retailer that hit 8 figures in 5 years, bootstrapped, while all three co-founders kept their full-time jobs.Gillian Liu walks through the whole machine, from a part-time student's 3M-view TikTok to a production calendar planned a month out.If you run content, growth, or a retail business on thin margins, this episode is worth a notebook.What's inside:The full production process: concepts and formats planned a month ahead, scripting against a reference hook library, a writer's room because "sometimes you're in it too much by yourself," script read-throughs with talent, then batch shoot days. "It's not vibes at all."Her comparison for why the pros post consistently: comedians who have joke-writing down to a science.The hiring filter for content roles: "What's your screen time? Show me." Her most recent hire clocks 8 hours a day. Gillian's reaction: "That's it?"Where it started: a student with 1,000 followers, found via Instagram DM, told to post three times a week with no direction. Three months in, one video hit 3M views on a niche product only Kiyoko carried, and site sessions 10x'd overnight.Platform roles: TikTok reaches strangers, Instagram converts them through stories and community, YouTube Shorts reposts overperform, and Red Note gets Gillian recognized on the street by the Chinese Canadian community.The math forcing all of this: retailer margins. A Meta top-of-funnel ad runs ~$10 CPM; organic works out to under a dollar. Paid has been bottom-of-funnel Google only for five years.The curation model itself: pay brand premium on COGS, then harvest demand created by other people's marketing budgets.Merchandising by data: Amazon US/Canada volume, Korea's top sellers, brand heads-ups on strategic SKUs, and Shopify's "search queries with no results" report.Brands as partners: one runs a 50/50 ad split with Kiyoko, others commission content monthly and pay in inventory value.The early jank: a $2,000 first order, a free Shopify theme, shipping from a co-founder's basement, and buying out-of-stock items from the Asian grocery store down the street.Why three co-founders kept their 9 to 5s (cash flow first, risk second), plus two warehouse moves in five months and the new California fulfillment center.Who this is for: content leads and founders doing organic at scale, and any operator whose margins can't support paid top of funnel.What to steal: her writer's room.

We break down the surprising news that YouTube Premium is adding access to Peacock and why bundling matters now that YouTube is beating major streamers in watch-time. We also talk about the tension baked into the deal: paying for “Premium” while still facing ads on the bundled service, and what that reveals about where advertising and subscriptions are heading.From there, we unpack a feature YouTube teased a year ago that still hasn't shown up in a meaningful way: the ability to remove and swap sponsor segments inside published videos. On paper, dynamic sponsorship insertion sounds like a creator's dream. In practice, we challenge whether it fits how YouTube views actually work, especially for videos that spike and then fade. If brands start asking, “Why am I paying you to get less views?” creators will need clearer inventory expectations, better reporting, and smarter monetization strategy.Then we hit the update Shorts creators have asked for forever: custom thumbnails for YouTube Shorts. Shorts are showing up on the homepage, in search, and on TV, which means packaging is becoming part of short-form growth. We share when thumbnails are worth the effort, design constraints like the crop “kill zone,” and why search-driven Shorts traffic can change everything.To close, Travis sits down with Allison Yasnian, CEO of Uscreen, to talk about building a subscription business beyond the YouTube algorithm: owning your audience, collecting emails, launching apps, running premium communities, and creating recurring revenue with monthly subscriptions. If you're serious about the creator economy, audience ownership, and sustainable monetization, hit subscribe, share this with a creator friend, and leave us a review.

If you've noticed a drop in your medical practice's website traffic over the last few months, you aren't alone—and your marketing isn't failing. The search landscape has fundamentally shifted. Brand new 2026 data reveals a staggering statistic: 68% of all Google searches in the US now end without a single click to an external website.In this episode, Jennifer and Corey break down why Google's transition into an "answer engine" is turning traditional click-through rates into vanity metrics. They share three concrete strategies for pivoting your digital footprint, explaining why your Google Business Profile is officially the new "front door" of your medical practice, and how to command authority right on the search results page.Tune in to discover:The Death of Vanity Metrics: Why raw organic website traffic is plummeting across the board and why practices must shift focus to high-intent conversion data and actual patient volume.The "Zero-Click" Safe Zones: Why branded searches, local business queries (Google Map Pack), and high-intent transactional searches (e.g., "book online for vein consultation") remain insulated from the zero-click drop.Optimizing for On-Platform Conversions: How to make your Google Business Profile practically flawless by adding pricing, complete service lists, direct booking links, and posting updates twice a week.Diversifying Outside the Google Ecosystem: Why long-term growth requires building brand authority across social video (Instagram, YouTube Shorts), direct patient email newsletters, and local community channels.

In this episode of The Truth In This Art, the guest is Simone Phillips!About Simone Phillips: Award-winning content creator and event curator behind Charm City Table, Baltimore's popular food and beverage platform with more than ten million impressions per month. She's become a trusted voice in Baltimore's culinary scene, highlighting the people, places, and stories that shape the city's food culture. She also curates vertical videos for the Maryland Film Festival and works closely with Parkway Theater.In our conversation, Phillips walks through her journey from starting Charm City Table in 2017 as a hobby to journal her dining experiences. Growing up, she didn't eat out much—Golden Corral and IHOP at church functions, but never exploring Baltimore's dining scene. After graduating college and moving back to Baltimore, she started exploring Harbor East, Fells Point, the Inner Harbor, Canton, and fell in love with all the options. That curiosity became her whole life.She shares her humanitarian approach to content creation—thinking about the restaurant owners and their feelings as creatives, but also the people spending their money who see something and get excited about visiting. We get into what it takes to build a sustainable brand voice rather than chasing virality, why Baltimore remains her intentional focal point even as she partners with national brands in New York, Chicago, and California, and what she believes is missing from Baltimore's food scene to take it to the next level: elevated service as an art form.Be sure to follow Charm City Table on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.Photo courtesy of subject.

Amber Grimes is only the fourth guest to ever return to this show, and she came back to argue something uncomfortable: the music by itself is not enough. She is an executive at LVRN and a Billboard Power Player who has built rollouts for 6lack, Summer Walker, and Belly Gang Kushington, and her case is that artist development matters MORE when you are independent, not less. A hit record can make you known. Artist development is what makes you matter.In this episode, Amber breaks down what artist development actually is, why "artist development is dead" is something people say when they are tired of doing it, how to find your story and stage it instead of dumping it all at once, the two houses every artist has to build, the full Belly Gang Kushington rollout, why you need people to like you more than they like your music, Instagram broadcast channels, Trial Reels for free discovery and free data, CoBrand, EVEN, how to name and reward your fans, and the gatekept YouTube Shorts play that turned an artist's press run into his own blog.Amber Grimes:Instagram: https://instagram.com/ambergrimesPodcast (If You Knew Better): https://www.youtube.com/@IYKBetterHer Substack article that inspired the episode: https://withambergrimes.substack.com/p/artist-development-matters-more-whenHer first appearance on the podcast: https://youtu.be/SyG3cq_VwqAEverything OMT:Website: https://onemoretime.fm/ytInstagram: https://instagram.com/onemoretime.fmTikTok: https://tiktok.com/@onemoretime.fmThe Blue Room: https://discord.com/invite/rTAYsPcyEYApply to be on the show:https://onemoretime.fm/guest30% off DistroKid:https://omtdistro.comMerch:https://onemoretime.fm/shopBusiness inquiries: team@onemoretime.fm

Creating content can be one of the fastest paths to building a business around something you genuinely enjoy. In this episode, Travis Chappell is joined by producer Eric to unpack a recent Gary Vaynerchuk clip about the difference between creating and consuming content. They explore why so many people spend hours consuming media they love instead of building something around it, how hobbies can evolve into profitable businesses, and why consistency over years—not weeks—is what separates successful creators from everyone else. On this episode we talk about: Why creating content is often more valuable than endlessly consuming it How to turn your hobbies and interests into business opportunities The importance of committing to content creation for the long term Why fear of failure keeps people from getting started Practical ways to test content ideas with short-form video before launching a podcast or business Top 3 Takeaways If you already spend hours consuming content around a topic you love, consider creating content about it instead—you may eventually build an audience and business around your passion. Success in content creation comes from consistency over months and years, not expecting results after a few weeks. Don't let fear of failure stop you. Start small, experiment on platforms like TikTok or YouTube Shorts, and focus first on whether you enjoy creating rather than chasing views.

Episode 119 John Stuart and James Finch finally stand trial for the Whiskey Au Go Go firebombing—but this is no ordinary murder trial. As prosecutors build their case around disputed confessions, jailhouse informants, and weeks of alleged extortion threats, Stuart repeatedly sabotages the proceedings by swallowing homemade spring-loaded wire devices that send him into emergency surgery. Eventually barred from attending his own trial, Stuart dismisses his lawyer, forcing the court into the extraordinary position of conducting part of the proceedings in his hospital room. This episode explores the bizarre courtroom drama that followed, the witnesses whose credibility would be questioned for decades, and the evidence that convinced a jury to convict both men. But the story doesn't end with the verdict. From rooftop prison protests and repeated acts of self-harm to lingering allegations of fabricated confessions and unanswered questions about Stuart's death, the controversy surrounding Australia's "crime of the century" only deepens. And with another confession, a kidnapping, and fresh challenges to the convictions still ahead, the Whiskey Au Go Go saga isn't over yet.  Sources for this episode include Geoff Plunkett's excellent book, The Whiskey Au Go Go Massacre: Murder, Arson and the Crime of the Century, along with contemporary reporting and historical records. If you'd like a much deeper dive into the case, we highly recommend the book. As always, keep your exits clear and your fire escapes free of storage.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of The Insider Diary, I give a personal update on how work and content creation have been going. The main focus is my Instagram growth, I've picked up almost 2,000 followers in five weeks by posting reels daily, and I break down exactly which reels worked, which ones flopped, and the workflow behind it all. I also cover my content days and open the waitlist for my upcoming hair masterclass.Started posting reels daily from 18 March this year. Nearly 2,000 new followers in about five weeks.Biggest lesson from the whole run: people only watch for 7 to 13 seconds. The hook decides whether they stay.My workflow: uses ChatGPT to help with captions, hooks and on-screen prompts, edits everything in the Edits app, posts to Instagram first, pulls the original file from Edits (not a re-download from Instagram) to post on TikTok, then reposts from TikTok to YouTube Shorts.Next move: repost her best performers again with a reworked hook, using ChatGPT to help tweak them.Advice for anyone starting out: just start. Mistakes are part of it. You'll find your style along the way. Collaboration helps (like her episode with Max) but isn't essential.Announcement: the waitlist is open for her hair masterclass. Format isn't locked in yet (leaning look-and-learn), and it'll be offered virtually too, so it's not just for Sydney or Australia.The Hair Edit Waitlist Follow TMI on IG Follow Vanessa on IGThe Makeup Insider Blog The Makeup Insider TikTok

Episode 118 In Part 5 of our Whiskey Au Go Go series, the investigation takes a dramatic turn when John Stuart's own brother, Danny, decides to turn him in to police. Was it an attack of conscience, or was Australia's largest-ever reward too tempting to ignore? As detectives close in, a backyard barbecue descends into absolute chaos, a mysterious Englishman named "Doug" repeatedly vanishes as police take John Stuart into custody.  Then they catch his closest friend, James Richard Finch. Police say Finch confessed to carrying out the deadly firebombing after being recruited by Stuart. Finch insists the confession was fabricated. With two suspects, two wildly different stories, and allegations of police misconduct already beginning to surface, the case becomes even more complicated. By the end of the episode, investigators believe they've solved Australia's crime of the century—but decades of controversy are only just beginning. Sources for this episode include Geoff Plunkett's excellent book, The Whiskey Au Go Go Massacre: Murder, Arson and the Crime of the Century, along with contemporary reporting and historical records. If you'd like a much deeper dive into the case, we highly recommend the book. As always, keep your exits clear and your fire escapes free of storage.

Send us Fan MailEver watched someone do something online and thought, “That doesn't look that hard?” This week on the Mike & Blaine Podcast, we dive into the Competence Illusion—the strange way social media platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts make incredibly difficult things look totally effortless. From woodworking and gourmet cooking to entrepreneurship, corporate scaling, professional podcasting, pressure washing, and even elite sports, experts have gotten so good at their craft that they've accidentally convinced the rest of us that anyone could do it.But behind every "effortless" ten-second video clip is thousands of hours of invisible experience, failed experiments, and calculated business strategy. In this episode, we break down why mastery looks so simple from the outside, how tactical shortcuts usually lead to massive DIY failures, and why rolling up your sleeves to try something yourself is the fastest way to develop true respect for the professionals who do it every day. Whether you're trying to build a business, launch a marketing campaign, or master a trade, execution is everything. The greatest compliment you can give a professional might just be, “Wow… that was a lot harder than it looked.”If you enjoy the show, head over to mikeandblaine.com to buy us a beer and keep the conversations flowing!Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/GWmpkeoXznYWe want to hear from you!

In this inspiring episode of the She Believed She Could™ Podcast, Allison Walsh sits down with Katie Love, Founder and CEO of Love Social Media, to talk about entrepreneurship, personal branding, social media marketing, and creating a business that supports the life you truly want. Before becoming a sought-after social media strategist, Katie was an NBC News reporter covering presidential elections, natural disasters, and major national stories. Despite achieving her lifelong career goal, she realized she was unfulfilled and decided to take a leap of faith into entrepreneurship. What started with zero clients, zero funding, and plenty of uncertainty eventually grew into a multi-seven-figure women-led agency serving hundreds of brands. Katie shares the lessons she learned while building her business during some of life's biggest transitions—including becoming a mother, navigating the challenges of entrepreneurship during the pandemic, and creating a non-traditional family dynamic that allowed her husband to become a stay-at-home dad. Together, Allison and Katie dive into the power of founder-led brands, why authenticity is outperforming polished content, and how business owners can leverage social media to build trust, authority, and meaningful connections with their audience. You'll also learn practical strategies for creating engaging content, improving visibility online, understanding platform selection, increasing engagement, and turning your expertise into business growth. Whether you're building a personal brand, growing a business, or looking for the confidence to take the next step toward your goals, this conversation will leave you inspired to show up, be seen, and believe in what's possible.

Join our mastermind community: https://www.skool.com/apparel-success-mastermindTry the best Ai design platform: https://www.design.com/rob88Most clothing brands are never going to blow up because their social media marketing is too safe, too average, and too easy to ignore. In this video, I break down the content strategy clothing brand owners need if they want to grow on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube Shorts, and social media in 2026. If you're starting a clothing brand, streetwear brand, fashion brand, or clothing line, this will show you why basic product posts and aesthetic content are no longer enough to get views, followers, or sales.The key to growing a clothing brand right now is understanding the economics of attention. Instagram marketing, TikTok marketing, and short-form content are more competitive than ever, which means average content gets buried. The clothing brands that win are the ones creating rare, original, high-risk creative content that stands out, connects with their niche, builds demand, and turns attention into sales.I'll show you how to find better content ideas, study what the algorithm is rewarding, and apply those ideas to your own clothing brand, streetwear brand, fashion brand, or clothing line. If you want to grow your clothing brand on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and social media, get more sales, and stop posting content that nobody cares about, this video is for you.
