Jake talks to us about how your marketing isn't broken, your message is.

Jake "The Wizard" Tlapek built and sold The Wizard Marketing, a marketing agency, growing it on the back of a 100,000-follower TikTok audience of small business owners.

The pattern he kept seeing: the businesses that broke out fixed their message, not their channels. One landscaping client went from $2M to $10M in three years on messaging alone. Same spend, same channels.

That became Eight Dominoes: A Messaging Framework That Compounds Into Awesome Clients. He now writes, teaches, consults and runs the Eight Dominoes community.

Bruce talks to us about Marketing in the AI age.

Bruce Law over the course of his 40-year marketing career, which began on New York City's Madison Avenue, has become a recognized expert in building brands, generating sales, and capturing market share for virtually every kind of company, from startup to late stage, B2B to consumer products, for profit to nonprofit.

After directing marketing for brands like Owens-Corning Fiberglas, Lever Brothers, and Intel, Bruce founded Sprout Marketing in 2002, the first firm in the US to provide fractional CMOs to companies unable to afford a dedicated marketing leader.

This fractional model has since become a pivotal growth strategy for startups and small businesses alike. Since its humble beginnings, Sprout has guided marketing for more than 400 companies, launched over 1200 products, and added more than $1 billion dollars of incremental revenue to the top lines of its portfolio clients.

Bruce is a popular and provocative speaker on podcasts, at conferences and in university classrooms, and has been quoted in business and marketing publications. He holds an Advertising degree from Brigham Young University where he later taught as an adjunct professor.

He currently volunteers as Executive Director for The International Society, a nonprofit organization connecting thousands of professionals across the globe to make a positive impact. He served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Japan and speaks fluent Japanese. He and his wife of 37 years currently reside in Salt Lake City, Utah USA and have 4 children and 6 grandchildren.

Peter talks to us about The Hamster Wheel Trap®.

Peter Boolkah is an award-winning business coach, entrepreneur, author and keynote speaker who has spent more than two decades working alongside business owners around the world.

But his fascination with business has never really been about revenue for revenue's sake. It has been about a contradiction he kept seeing: people started businesses looking for freedom, worked incredibly hard to make them successful, and then discovered they had built something that couldn't function without them.

Peter calls this The Hamster Wheel Trap®.

That observation became the foundation of his book, Your Business Sucks – Build a Business That Works Without Destroying Your Life, in which he challenges founders to rethink what business success actually means. His belief is simple: being indispensable to your business isn't something to celebrate. The real achievement is building an organisation with the people, leadership and systems to thrive without you at the centre of everything.

Today, Peter is increasingly focused on taking that message beyond the coaching room through writing, podcasting and keynote speaking. His mission is to challenge the conventional obsession with growth and help entrepreneurs build businesses that create wealth, freedom and opportunity without consuming the lives of the people who created them.

Alex talks to us about running AI agents like a workforce.

Alex Brockway is the founder of AI Code That Works, where he teaches non-technical founders and operators how to ship real, production software with AI.

A lawyer by trade — not an engineer — Alex builds live SaaS products used by real businesses, and is currently building RevAStack in public: a platform that puts your brand on autopilot, producing and publishing your content end-to-end — video, images, posts, ads, and email — from one automated production system. It's being built entirely by teams of AI agents that write, review, and test code around the clock.

His core message: AI doesn't need you to be technical. It needs you to have a method.

He teaches that method — proven on his own shipped products first — through his community, courses, and build-in-public content.

Rita talks to us about The Knowledge Gap - Exploring the space between what leaders know and what they need to know, and the conversations that close it.

Rita Rai is the founder of discussIt.co and a senior executive with deep roots in management consulting.

She's spent her career working with Fortune 500 leadership teams on strategic planning, operational improvement, digital transformation, and change management - the kind of work where the difference between a plan that sits on a shelf and one that transforms a business comes down to how well people connect, communicate, and share knowledge.

Janylène talks to us about entrepreneurs exiting and search for identities.

Janylène Turcotte spent 25 years as a senior HR executive, the last stretch at Deloitte. She served as an integrator on several deals — inside the due diligence, close to the moment a business changes hands — guiding people and organizations through transition and transformation.

Then her own role ended — not on her terms. She walked out of that meeting feeling like she'd left a coat at the door. Over the emptying weeks that followed, she realized how much of who she thought she was had been the coat. The title. The brand. The identity she'd worn without noticing. She knows first-hand the particular silence of a calendar that suddenly clears.

That's the terrain she now walks with founders who are exiting their business.

Because when an entrepreneur sells the company they built, they're surrounded by people — finance, tax, lawyers, advisors — and every one of them has a stake in the outcome. Nobody in that room is there simply for them. Nobody's only job is to help them digest what it means to hand over the thing that's carried their identity for years — or to answer the question that lands the morning after the deal closes: who am I now, and what was all of this for?

Today Janylène is the founder of Hypnocoach, a clinical hypnotherapist and ICF-certified coach (ACC) with more than 1,500 sessions behind her. Trained in Rapid Transformational Therapy under Marisa Peer, she works underneath the strategy — with the beliefs and the meaning no spreadsheet in the process ever touches. Her method, Peel Back, Rewire, Rise, is built for exactly this: the identity shift a successful exit sets off, and the reinvention that has to follow it.

She's practical, not mystical. Warm, and direct. She earned a merit scholarship at HEC on her academic results and cut her teeth selling encyclopedias door to door — rigour and hustle in equal measure, and little patience for fluffy personal-development promises.

For the founder walking toward the exit, she's the one person in the process with no skin in the game, whose only job is to be there for them.

Dr. Theresa talks to us about Marketing Misdiagnosis: Why Treating Symptoms Is Killing Your Business (And the Systemic Cure).

Dr. Theresa Pantanella is Your Doctor of Marketing. She spent 24 years in healthcare as a doctoral-level occupational therapist, building a seven-clinic outpatient business in South Florida on a single service and scaling it into high six figures through pure operational systemization.

Today, she applies that exact same diagnostic rigor to business growth. Where most marketers treat surface-level symptoms, Theresa diagnoses the hidden operational breakdowns in a business's marketing and builds the AI-powered systems that permanently fix them. Her frameworks have generated over $13 million in revenue for clients ranging from doctoral experts to seven-figure enterprises.

She is the co-host of the No BS AI Summit, former president of NAWBO Fort Lauderdale, and her absolute best strategic breakthroughs still arrive mid-ocean swim, fueled by far too much coffee.

Aaron talks to us about how mindfulness and meditation are undervalued as the easiest path to performance, success, and happiness.

Aaron Hendon is a keynote speaker, bestselling author, and real estate veteran turned mindfulness provocateur who has made it his mission to help people stop outsourcing their sanity to the market, their inbox, or their own over-caffeinated anxiety.

As the creator of The Mindful CEO and author of How to Live a Grateful Life in a Fckd Up World, Aaron blends 13 years of real estate experience with four decades of meditation and ontological leadership training to teach people how to sell more, lead better, and live saner—not through hacks or hustle porn, but through awareness, agency, and actual practice.

After moving to Seattle and building a top-producing real estate business—where his team consistently sold homes for 3–5% more than average and 27% faster—Aaron discovered a truth most sales pros conveniently ignore: productivity doesn't come from grinding harder; it comes from learning how not to fall apart. He spent years studying with mindfulness teachers, training hundreds of agents, and leading transformational courses before developing a practical, no-BS methodology that helps high-performing professionals operate with more clarity and less chaos.

Today, Aaron teaches leaders and sales organizations how to trade burnout for presence, and how to build businesses that don't require sacrificing their nervous systems. His clients describe him as equal parts Zen monk, Jewish dad, and high-performance coach—someone who can quote Alan Watts, call out your self-sabotage, and still get your deal closed by Friday.

Through his programs—including From Hustle to Flow: Sell More by Stressing Less and the Mindful CEO Mastermind—Aaron provides real-world tools grounded in neuroscience, emotional intelligence, and contemplative practice. His work has helped agents 2–3x their production, dramatically reduce stress, and reconnect with the purpose that got them into business in the first place.

When he's not teaching, Aaron is writing, running mindfulness cohorts, leading gratitude trainings, and helping teams experience the kind of grounded presence that makes better decisions, better leaders, and—yes—better lives. His philosophy is simple: the world may be a mess, but your mind doesn't have to be.

Aaron lives on Vashon Island with his wife Kael, loves good bagels, and is committed to helping people experience genuine agency, one breath at a time.

Kelly talks to us about Why Administrative Professionals Are the Biggest Untapped Opportunity in AI.

Kelly A. Norton is an AI-enabled executive operations leader, international best-selling author of Silent Streets: A Visual Chronicle of the Las Vegas Shutdown, and founder of MonetizeU AI, a global learning community dedicated to helping Administrative Professionals harness the power of artificial intelligence to transform their careers.

With more than 15 years of experience supporting CEOs, boards, and executive leadership across Fortune 500 companies, startups, and high-growth organizations, Kelly has built a career on operational excellence, strategic execution, and creating systems that help leaders and organizations thrive. Having served as a C-Level Executive Assistant, Office Manager, and Chief of Staff, she understands firsthand the evolving demands of today's workplace and the critical role Administrative Professionals play in driving organizational success.

Recognizing that AI would fundamentally reshape the profession, Kelly founded MonetizeU AI to bridge the gap between emerging technology and real-world application. Her mission is simple: empower Administrative Professionals to work smarter, become more strategic, and future-proof their careers through practical AI education.

What makes Kelly's approach different is her focus on implementation over theory. Rather than simply teaching AI tools, she provides hands-on training, live workshops, operational workflows, prompt libraries, and automation strategies that professionals can immediately apply to their daily work. From Microsoft Copilot and ChatGPT to Claude, Gemini, and workflow automation, Kelly helps her community confidently embrace AI while maintaining the human skills that make exceptional executive support invaluable.

The response has been extraordinary. MonetizeU AI has grown into a thriving international community of Administrative Professionals, Executive Assistants, Chiefs of Staff, and operations leaders committed to learning, growing, and leading the future of work together.

Kelly is passionate about changing the narrative around administrative careers. She believes today's Administrative Professionals are not "just support" but strategic business partners who, when equipped with AI and operational expertise, become indispensable to their organizations.

Whether she's teaching live classes, developing AI-powered workflows, speaking on podcasts, or mentoring professionals around the world, Kelly's goal remains the same: to help people embrace change with confidence, unlock their potential, and create careers that are not only future-ready but future-leading.

John talks to us about the third intelligence.

John Patterson has spent his career studying a question most professionals never think to ask: What is actually happening in the layer beneath this conversation?
The answer is Transactional Intelligence™ — TQ. TQ is skillfully navigating exchanges with others: the structured methodology for navigating the hidden layer beneath every conversation — the human exchanges that produce every outcome.

Before co-founding Influential U®, John spent more than two decades as a master trainer and regional director at a global personal development organization — designing curriculum for a $5B enterprise of 40,000 people, running a train-the-trainer program for sixteen years, and leading programs for tens of thousands of people across multiple countries. What he kept watching wasn't a skill problem or a mindset problem. It was a transactional one. Outcomes rose and fell not on the quality of people's thinking or intentions, but on something happening in their exchanges — something no one had named.

That question led him to Kirkland Tibbels and to the work that became TQ.

Since 2009, John has been the Co-Founder and CEO of Influential U® — the global education company that teaches Transactional Intelligence™ — and co-architect behind its full delivery infrastructure: the curriculum, learning management system, coaching architecture, and faculty certification program that brought TQ to practitioners in more than 20 countries. He is the practitioner voice of the methodology and co-author of HIGH TQ: Why It Matters More Than Expertise, Book 1 of the Transactional Intelligence™ series, written with Kirkland Tibbels (Published August 4, 2026).

For decades, the field has measured intelligence in two registers — IQ and EQ. HIGH TQ names the third. Marshall Goldsmith, Thinkers50 #1 Executive Coach, calls it "a third intelligence — the ability to conduct human exchanges that produce ethical outcomes. Practical, teachable, and long overdue." Sanyin Siang, Thinkers50 Coaching Hall of Fame, locates the work precisely: "High TQ names that hidden layer between engagement and actualization — the transactional intelligence that determines whether your superpowers actually land." And Chester Elton, NYT bestselling author of The Carrot Principle, names what it feels like to encounter: "TQ gives you that language. Once you can see the structure underneath your exchanges, everything about how you lead changes. This book is the missing piece I didn't know I was looking for."

Tina talks to us about Releasing What You Can No Longer Carry

Dr. Tina R. Walker is first and foremost a follower of Christ. It is through His love and teachings that she has learned to love those who have not always shown her love or grace. Matthews 5:44 (KJV) says "But I say unto you, love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you." It has not always been easy to hold up this commandment, but this scripture has helped her during her release journey.

Tina's life, like many, includes a variety of personal and professional highs and lows. At times, she found herself in situations that felt paralyzing and heartbreaking. Giving up outwardly was not an option; however, something was slowing down internally. She was holding on to those events and living a life that was not authentic or complete. As she learned to release, life internally and externally became more promising.

Tina is an accomplished executive, having spent more than 30 years serving and supporting organizations in the Human Resources and Administration space. She has spoken on several platforms and has written publications as a subject matter expert in all areas of human resources, diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, and organizational excellence.

She has conducted training courses and led conversations across the United States around the same topics. Tina served as an adjunct professor for more than a decade, helping students learn and grow through their commitments toward bachelor's and master's degrees.

Tina is a mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, auntie, and trusted friend. She holds a doctorate in Organizational Leadership and lives to inspire others through her open and transparent storytelling of her personal and professional triumphs and failures.

Manny talks to us about Mind Congruency.

Manny Fiteni is a dynamic leader, author, and technology entrepreneur working at the intersection of behavioural psychology and applied AI. He is the founder and CEO of My Growth Corporation, where he now builds AI products rather than only teaching frameworks - translating over three decades of real-world behavioural research directly into software people use every day.

Manny's flagship product, Chaegim Chay-Gim (chaegim.com), is an AI accountability partner designed to close what he calls "the gap between coaching sessions" - the days between appointments where old habits quietly creep back in and momentum is lost. Chaegim stays with a person in that gap, holding them to who they said they wanted to become, so transformation doesn't reset every time a session ends.

He also founded SkillZap AI (skillzapai.com), an AI flashcard maker and trivia platform that applies the same behavioural-science lens to how people learn, retain, and test knowledge. Notably, Manny built both ventures without a prior coding background, directing product and AI architecture through the same real-world observation that shaped his coaching work.

Manny's approach is rooted in "Mind Congruency", the principle he explores in his book, which focuses on aligning the conscious mind with the subconscious mind to produce a "Focused Mind" - freeing individuals from being sabotaged by their own past programming. It is this same principle, encoded into product design, that gives Chaegim its edge as more than a habit tracker or chatbot.

What makes Manny unique is that his study and practical application took place in the real world, not in controlled environments where subjects know they are being observed. His results - and now his products - come from a genuinely different vantage point than most in the coaching or AI space.

Whether speaking at conferences, appearing on podcasts, or shipping new features, Manny's mission remains clear: to close the gap between who people are and who they are capable of becoming - through his books, his training, and now the AI he builds.

Tom talks to us about how we are all one conversation away, not one funnel away.

Tom Schwab is the founder of Interview Valet and the category designer behind Podcast Interview Marketing, He's known as Godfather of Podcast Guesting. He earned the title by proving something most marketers miss: a podcast interview is not a megaphone. It's a magnet.

A megaphone is loud and indiscriminate. It shouts at everyone and converts almost no one. A magnet is selective. Done right, an interview pulls your ideal client toward you and quietly repels the ones who were never a fit, which spares everyone a wasted sales call. Tom built Interview Valet on that single idea, and it now connects experts with exactly the audiences they are trying to reach.
He once ran nuclear reactors on Navy aircraft carriers. Today he engineers something subtler: conversations that do the sorting for you.

Here is what makes today different. When you sit down for an interview now, you are not only speaking to your ideal clients. You are speaking to the AI that will recommend you to them later. The interview is the magnet. The transcript is the record. Both are listening.

Rob talks to us about how Your Body Is Your Business Plan — And Why I Built an AI Chief of Staff to Protect It.

Rob René is the founder of Exodus Strong, the world's first faith-based wellness company integrating red light technology, biblical botanicals, and AI-powered business infrastructure. After surviving five near-death experiences — including stage 3 Malignant Melanoma that stopped his heart on an operating table at age 50 — Rob walked away from a 25-year Fortune 500 sales career to build the wellness products he couldn't find anywhere else.

What started as a personal protocol became Exodus Strong: a business serving entrepreneurs, founders, and faith-driven families across the country. Rob is the creator of the Light Code System, a 4-pillar wellness framework (Light, Frequencies, Fuel, Faith) and the host of the BiohackingVille podcast.

But Rob's most original contribution may be on the operations side. He built an AI Chief of Staff named Solomon — coordinating a team of 24 AI agents he calls the Twelve Tribes, each with biblical names, scripture references, and specific operational responsibilities. The framework has reduced Rob's working hours from 70 per week to under 25, while growing the business at a faster rate than ever.

Rob has appeared on Entrepreneurs On Fire with John Lee Dumas, The Steve Gruber Show (5M+ weekly listeners), His Glory with Pastor Dave Scarlett, and dozens of other faith-based, wellness, and entrepreneurship platforms. He is the author of the upcoming book "Light Code: The 4-Pillar System for Total Body Healing."

His mission is to help entrepreneurs reclaim both their bodies and their time — using AI as the mechanism, but with mission-driven business as the purpose. He calls the founders he works with "Change Agents for Good" — entrepreneurs whose businesses make the world meaningfully better when they grow.

Rob lives in Texas with his partner Laura. He's healthier at 58 than he was at 44.

Having launched more than 50 businesses, Chad realized his greatest advantage wasn't building alone — it was multiplying outcomes through collaboration. Through the CoLAB platform and his VCR framework, he helps founders move beyond friction and turn it into fuel, unlocking exponential growth by leveraging who they are, what they know, and who they can reach.

Rachel talks to us about what Community Cards are and why they work so well for local businesses.

Rachel Smith is a Community Card business owner and entrepreneur who is passionate about helping local businesses grow while bringing communities together in meaningful ways.

Alongside her husband, Rachel made the decision to step away from the traditional career path in search of greater freedom, purpose, and control over their future. That decision marked the beginning of a journey that would completely transform their lives.

What started as a desire to build something of their own soon evolved into their Community Card venture. Rachel recognised the opportunity to create a model that not only supports local businesses, but also strengthens the connections within communities.

Since then, she has been committed to showing others what is possible with a simple idea, strong relationships, and consistent action. For Rachel, the Community Card business is more than just a business model. It represents creativity, connection, and the ability to design a life on her own terms.

Through the ups and downs of building a business, Rachel has learned that success is not about having everything figured out from the start. It is about taking action, staying consistent, and learning as you go. Her journey has been filled with growth, challenges, and rewarding wins, which she is passionate about sharing with others who are seeking a different path.

Today, Rachel is proud to be building a business with her husband, serving local communities, and inspiring others to create something bigger for themselves and their families.

Wes talks to us about Humanising AI with Search Everywhere Optimisation.

Wes Towers is the founder of Uplift 360, a Geelong-based digital agency that helps businesses turn clarity and trust into measurable growth. A few years ago, during a challenging season, a valuer told Wes his business was not worth much because AI would replace what he did. Rather than walk away, he rebuilt by leaning into AI while doubling down on what cannot be automated: story, empathy, and genuine connection.

That journey led to his framework, Search Everywhere Optimisation, a practical approach that combines human-centred messaging with AI amplification to build visibility and credibility online. Wes and his team primarily serve construction and trades, but his methods apply to any founder who wants to make a difference without falling into pushy marketing tactics.

Wes shares candid lessons, many learned the hard way, practical ways to create "information gain" (content that is genuinely useful), and how values-driven brands can show up consistently without burning out. His style is approachable, transparent, and focused on quick wins that build lasting results.

Today, Uplift 360 partners with purpose-driven leaders to refine their message, elevate their online presence, and build the kind of trust that converts without the hard sell.

Doug talks to us about Using What If questions.

Doug Fleener is a coach, speaker, and author who helps entrepreneurs and leaders create better perspectives and options as they navigate decisions, change, and everyday complexity.

His work is grounded in a simple belief: one well-asked question can shift how you see a situation and what you do next.

Doug's journey to this work was shaped by real turning points. He moved from addiction and business failure to becoming Director of Retail for Bose Corporation, where he led teams and learned what actually drives sustainable growth. Those experiences taught him that clarity often comes through action, not endless analysis.

He is the author of Start With What If: Weekly Questions to Spark Immediate Change and Growth, which introduces The What If Rule: Pause. Question. Go. The framework helps entrepreneurs interrupt default thinking, simplify decisions, and move forward with intention.

Doug works with business owners and leaders who want practical tools that fit real life, not abstract theory. His style is direct, human, and grounded in lived experience, shaped by decades of leadership, recovery, and coaching.

He believes meaningful change starts with asking a better question and being willing to take the next step.

Jordan and Jillian talk to us about the value of hobbies for entrepreneurs.

Jordan Truster and Jillian Reece are twin sisters who have been teaching calligraphy online since 2017 with more than 65,000 students across 150 countries. What began as simple tutorials has grown into a full creative platform with courses, workshops, and their new membership community: Calligraphy Together.

Calligraphy isn't just for "artsy" people. Jordan comes from an engineering background and Jillian from data analytics, and they teach with a clear, step-by-step approach. Their methods help beginners build skills, confidence, and most importantly, a creative habit they can stick with. The warm community they've built keeps people supported, motivated, and encouraged along the way.

For many members, calligraphy becomes the thing they didn't realize they needed. It's a reason to slow down, relax, and make something beautiful with their hands.

What are your topic ideas?: We would love to discuss calligraphy and its adjacent topics (creating with your hands, the value of hobbies, mental health), and business (online education, building community).

Jess talks to us about how we need to stop being invisible.

Jess Jensen is the founder of Co-pilot Communications, a Portland-based advisory helping bold executives sound like themselves online—clear, confident, and human.

After 20 years inside Fortune 100 companies like Microsoft, Qualcomm, Nestlé, and Adidas, Jess left corporate life to help leaders stop playing small and start showing up online as their full selves—story-rich, imperfect, and unapologetically human.

Through sharp messaging, editorial strategy, and smart use of platforms like LinkedIn and podcasting, she helps clients build a digital presence that earns trust, inspires action, and sounds like them.

Here's the truth: If your team loves working for you, they'll naturally promote you. If your customers feel like they're part of something bigger, they'll become your media. And if your content reflects your reality—not some polished BS—you'll build loyalty that algorithms can't ignore.

Co-pilot works with curious, values-driven leaders who are tired of ghostwritten fluff and ready to take the mic. Jess believes building a professional brand isn't just smart—it's your moat. She's on a mission to help leaders shape their own narrative before someone else does.

Rohanna talks to us about the "beginner again" feeling and why it happens.

Rohanna Doylida is a brand strategist for second-career women, the founder of the TrueVoice Brand Mentorship, and creator of The Wisdom Bridge Method—a transformational framework that helps accomplished women stop apologizing for their "scattered" career paths and start positioning them as their greatest competitive advantages.

With a background as rich and varied as performing for thousands over ten years on Chicago stages, launching a gluten- and dairy-free bakery with no prior business experience (just determination and her son's Celiac diagnosis as motivation), and teaching preschool for nearly a decade, Rohanna brings a soul-deep understanding of human connection, storytelling, and reinvention. She's lived the journey she teaches—navigating multiple career transitions while raising three children and building businesses that matter.

After 30 years of wearing different hats, Rohanna discovered something most career experts miss: accomplished women don't need more credentials or skills. They need new language. They need to see their diverse backgrounds as proof of capability, not evidence of indecision. They need someone who's actually lived through multiple reinventions—not just studied them.

That realization led to the creation of The Wisdom Bridge, a systematic approach that connects past experience to present value. Through her mentorship program, Rohanna helps women transform "I used to be..." into "I help..." She teaches them to walk into networking events, client conversations, and LinkedIn profiles with grounded confidence instead of apologetic explanations.

Rohanna addresses the real emotional and strategic challenges women face when starting something new in their 40s, 50s, or 60s—from imposter syndrome and self-doubt to building a brand that feels authentically aligned with who they are. Her approach is refreshingly honest: she acknowledges the fear while providing concrete tools to move through it.

Rohanna lives in the Chicago area, where she continues to mentor second-career women while proving that reinvention isn't about starting over—it's about building on everything you've already become. When she's not helping women claim their expertise, she's probably thinking about her next career pivot (just kidding—she's finally found her calling).

Cedric talks to us about How the Brain Resolves Emotions Naturally.

Cedric Bertelli is the founder and director of the Emotional Health Institute and the co-developer of Emotional Resolution® (EmRes®) — a neuroscience-based methodology that helps people resolve debilitating emotional patterns by updating the brain's interoceptive predictions.

Through his work, Cedric bridges cutting-edge science and lived human experience. EmRes® draws on research in neuroscience, interoception, and predictive processing to show how the body can naturally integrate emotional triggers without analysis or coping strategies. Over the past 15 years, Cedric has trained thousands of practitioners, educators, HR professionals and mental-health professionals around the world, and has helped countless clients achieve lasting freedom from anxiety, anger, shame, and fear.

Before dedicating himself fully to emotional health, Cedric built a successful career in the hospitality industry, serving as a chef and Food and Beverage Director for The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company. His early professional life, centered on service and human connection, shaped his understanding of emotional intelligence and resilience — insights that later became foundational to his work with EmRes®.

Today, Cedric collaborates with neuroscientists, clinicians, and educators — including researchers at UCLA's George Slavich Lab — to study how emotional resolution impacts stress, anxiety, and well-being. His approach integrates philosophy, biology, and humanistic psychology, drawing inspiration from thinkers such as Spinoza, Bergson, and Merleau-Ponty to illuminate how emotions arise and can be resolved through embodied awareness.

Whether speaking to therapists, executives, or parents, Cedric's message is simple and profound: emotional safety isn't something we find in our environment — it's something we restore within ourselves.

Nick talks to us about The Missing Middle.

Nick Avaria has spent over a decade as an agency owner, and scaled multiple agencies
past multiple 7 and 8-figures per year.

He has bought and sold 7 agencies and is no stranger to merging leadership
teams and company cultures.

His philosophy is simple: Make more profit, re-invest that into training for your staff, they perform better so you pay them more (above market preferably), hire new top performers to inject new energy into your team, and repeat.

Nick started consulting with other agency owners when he saw how burnt out his peers were while trying to scale and working 60+ hours per week. He wants them to see their hard work pay off so they can grow fantastic work places where employees and clients can thrive, all while spending less time behind their desk.

He has been in (and still is in) the trenches, he still owns agencies, and now he's finally found a system that consistently scales agencies at high profits.

Rob talks to us about how every solopreneur can build a strong brand on a small budget.

Rob Genovesi is a brand strategist who helps solopreneurs and mid-sized businesses build brands that pull in better clients and higher profits.

He spent 25 years in advertising, marketing, and publishing, managing creative teams and wearing the corporate mask. Then he launched his own design company and made the same mistakes most people make—blending in, playing small, and doing what everyone else was doing.

That changed when he committed to real brand strategy and what he calls the "branding mindset". He 4X'd his revenue without a big budget or a big team.

Now he helps clients do the same: get clear on who they are, who they serve, and what makes them different so they can charge more, attract better-fit clients, and increase profitability.

His book, "Don't Fear The Brand: The Art of Building a Strong Brand That Attracts," details the inside story and exact strategy.

Aaron talks to us about how mindfulness and meditation are undervalued as the easiest path to performance, success, and happiness.

Aaron Hendon is a keynote speaker, bestselling author, and real estate veteran turned mindfulness provocateur who has made it his mission to help people stop outsourcing their sanity to the market, their inbox, or their own over-caffeinated anxiety.

As the creator of The Mindful CEO and author of How to Live a Grateful Life in a Fckd Up World, Aaron blends 13 years of real estate experience with four decades of meditation and ontological leadership training to teach people how to sell more, lead better, and live saner—not through hacks or hustle porn, but through awareness, agency, and actual practice.

After moving to Seattle and building a top-producing real estate business—where his team consistently sold homes for 3–5% more than average and 27% faster—Aaron discovered a truth most sales pros conveniently ignore: productivity doesn't come from grinding harder; it comes from learning how not to fall apart. He spent years studying with mindfulness teachers, training hundreds of agents, and leading transformational courses before developing a practical, no-BS methodology that helps high-performing professionals operate with more clarity and less chaos.

Today, Aaron teaches leaders and sales organizations how to trade burnout for presence, and how to build businesses that don't require sacrificing their nervous systems. His clients describe him as equal parts Zen monk, Jewish dad, and high-performance coach—someone who can quote Alan Watts, call out your self-sabotage, and still get your deal closed by Friday.

Through his programs—including From Hustle to Flow: Sell More by Stressing Less and the Mindful CEO Mastermind—Aaron provides real-world tools grounded in neuroscience, emotional intelligence, and contemplative practice. His work has helped agents 2–3x their production, dramatically reduce stress, and reconnect with the purpose that got them into business in the first place.

When he's not teaching, Aaron is writing, running mindfulness cohorts, leading gratitude trainings, and helping teams experience the kind of grounded presence that makes better decisions, better leaders, and—yes—better lives. His philosophy is simple: the world may be a mess, but your mind doesn't have to be.

Aaron lives on Vashon Island with his wife Kael, loves good bagels, and is committed to helping people experience genuine agency, one breath at a time.

Rich talks to us about creating a unique small business culture.

Rich Ashton is a lifelong entrepreneur with more than 45 years of experience building and leading successful small businesses. Throughout his career, Rich discovered that the greatest challenge wasn't finding great employees, it was developing great leaders from within.

To solve that challenge, he created an in-house leadership development program designed primarily for blue-collar employees, helping them grow into confident, capable leaders. The results were so successful that many of those employees now run the companies themselves.

Drawing on decades of real-world experience, Rich captured the leadership principles and lessons from that program in his book, Growing Your Own, a practical guide to developing leaders from within an organization. Today, he shares his insights on leadership, culture, succession planning, and how businesses can create lasting success by investing in their people.

Mike talks to us about The Spirit of Play: Unlocking Human Motivation Through Leadership.

Mike Chaput didn't wait around for permission to lead—he bought his first company at 24 with borrowed money and zero experience. What followed was a crash course in leadership, finance, and failure that ended in bankruptcy and began a lifelong obsession with learning how businesses really work.

He took those lessons and built a new company from the ground up, scaling it to $35 million in revenue with best-in-class margins and a team of 140. Along the way, Mike discovered what truly drives business success: not control, not hustle, but clarity of vision and a values-driven culture that people want to be part of.

Mike holds degrees from both Columbia Business School and UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business, and has continued learning long after the diplomas auditing courses and studying with the intensity of someone who never assumes they know enough. His approach blends top-tier business theory with hard-won experience in the trenches.

Today, he's the CEO of Endsight, a member of the CEO Advisory Council for a multi-billion-dollar software company, and a board member for two private equity roll-ups. He brings a grounded, operator's perspective to topics like M&A, leadership, team motivation, and sustainable growth.

Mike believes that when leaders trade structural authority for shared purpose, companies grow faster, teams perform better, and the whole thing becomes more human—and more scalable.

Cameron talks to us about working in your business versus working on your business.

Cameron Bishop brings more than 40 years of executive-level business experience to his role as one of Raincatcher's Managing Directors. He has overseen a broad array of business scenarios involving start-ups, product line extensions, organic growth, international business, mergers & acquisitions (M&A), deal integrations, business reorganizations, and digital transformations.

In his early career, Cam began as a copywriter for a $7 million company. Through his determination and dedication to the bigger picture, he rose through the ranks to become its CEO, and he helped grow that company to $400 million in revenue and $100 million in EBITDA profits, expanding it to more than 2,000 employees located in 23 U.S. cities and across several countries.

From there, he launched Ascend Media, a startup backed by J.P. Morgan Chase Bank's $6 billion private equity fund that began on his kitchen table. In just three years, Cam built a management team that developed strategy and installed the systems and processes needed to create a successful infrastructure for a $120MM company with 500 employees based in 7 cities.

Cam found himself moving onto another company next, where he served as a partner in a consulting firm specializing in exit and transition planning. He led a business turnaround and digital transformation under contract for the board of directors of SkillPath Seminars, a $60 million 501c3 company.

SkillPath is one of the nation's largest and most successful management and leadership development training companies.

His role as CEO with this company was to introduce a new strategy, brand the company, recruit new talent, reduce costs, improve business processes, introduce technology from data science to web functionality and create a compelling social media presence through aggressive thought leadership programs.

Cam's real passion remains in M&A. Over the years he has executed 50 buys-side and 20+ sell-side deals with enterprise value over $500 million. Throughout his experience, he came to understand that many business owners are improperly represented by brokers, which resulted in them leaving their businesses with less value than they should have.

Cam has a true passion for helping business owners achieve their financial goals

Dr. Neja talks to us about From Hustle to Flow: Activating Your Multidimensional Intelligence for Business Success.

Dr. Neja Zupan is a Mentor in Multidimensional Leadership & Radiant Vitality. She is the Founder of the Mastering Energy Academy | Energy Recalibration Expert | International Speaker

Dr. Neja Zupan — Mentor in Multidimensional Leadership & Radiant Vitality, Specialist in Multidimensional Intelligence Activation™, and Founder of the Mastering Energy Academy — and living proof that full-spectrum success is not only possible, but inevitable when you align with your true frequency.

Years ago, I was given a 5% chance of survival after being diagnosed with aggressive, hormone-sensitive cancer. All the women in my lineage before me had passed from cancer. I carry the BRCA gene. But I chose a different path — no chemotherapy, no radiation, no pharmaceuticals. I went to the root cause: energy frequency.

What followed was not just a healing journey — it was a complete reconstruction of my life force, my identity, and my purpose. I dismantled layers of inherited trauma, survival coding, and subtle energetic distortion. I rebuilt myself — cell by cell, frequency by frequency.

Today, I am not only cancer-free — I am radiantly alive, sovereign, and leading high-achieving professionals around the world through the same profound depth of transformation. From a lower-working-class upbringing, I became the only one in my extended family to build an international business — created not through force, but through frequency.

This is not something I teach from theory. It's something I embody. And it's why high-performing leaders trust me with their deepest recalibrations.

Justin talks to us about Practical Mindsets for Business Finance.

Jake "The Wizard" Tlapek built and sold The Wizard Marketing, a marketing agency, growing it on the back of a 100,000-follower TikTok audience of small business owners.

The pattern he kept seeing: the businesses that broke out fixed their message, not their channels. One landscaping client went from $2M to $10M in three years on messaging alone. Same spend, same channels.

That became Eight Dominoes: A Messaging Framework That Compounds Into Awesome Clients. He now writes, teaches, consults and runs the Eight Dominoes community.

Matt talks to us about the impact AI has had in business, life, and entrepreneurial endeavors.

Matt Stanley has spent 30 years helping growth-minded entrepreneurs build thriving businesses through proven sales and marketing systems. In 1995, he began teaching himself website development and SEO, launching a side business that would eventually become his full-time calling. The 2008 recession became an unexpected catalyst when he was laid off from his job, prompting him to dive into full-time entrepreneurship. Since then, he's operated a successful agency, evolving his focus in 2022 with the launch of GetReviewsAndLeads.com—a new brand concentrating specifically on business development, lead generation, and coaching.

After working with dozens of clients over three decades, Matt realized the traditional marketing agency model was broken. Instead of focusing solely on tactics, he wanted to address the entire customer lifecycle holistically. Through critical analysis and deep research into why companies fail, he developed a proprietary framework that solved those problems. Matt's passion is serving growth-minded entrepreneurs by helping them reach their fullest potential using this system and his expertise to build healthy companies that dominate their industry.

Matt's digital marketing agency GetReviewsAndLeads.com specializes in high-conversion websites and sales funnels, lead generation, SEO and paid advertising, software development, cutting-edge AI technologies, and marketing automation.

What distinguishes Matt Stanley's approach is his philosophy that "clients are family." As a Spirit-filled Christian, his responsibility is stewarding those relationships with integrity, compassion, and unwavering excellence. He champions the MVP (Minimum Viable Product) mindset, calling perfectionism "the assassin of progress"—practical wisdom from three decades of real-world consulting experience.

An avid learner who invests heavily in professional development, Matt is passionate about bringing cutting-edge solutions to market. As an active AI user and software developer, he thrives on solving complex business problems with innovative, software-based solutions. This commitment to perpetual learning fuels his integrated approach—he doesn't just teach marketing tactics, but helps entrepreneurs unlock their full potential through strategies addressing mindset, marketing, and business systems holistically. This comprehensive approach earned him the Better Business Bureau's "Integrity Counts!" Award in 2010.

Matt Stanley's core philosophy centers on legacy through impact rather than achievement, balancing sophisticated technology with authentic human connection. He believes in building systems that work without constant intervention while maintaining the personal touch that creates lasting client relationships.

Based in Boise, Idaho, Matt lives with his wife and two children, bringing the same passion for growth and freedom to his family life that he brings to his entrepreneurial pursuits.

Michelle's work is devoted to the Liminal Space: that disorienting, electric terrain between who you were and who you're becoming. Her method fuses deep subconscious transformation, somatic recalibration, and catalytic identity shifts, revealing the signature self who already holds the results you desire, and clearing the space for you to live them with precision.

What are your topic ideas?:
How to navigate the Liminal Space to your Elevated Identity. This is not about ongoing evolution, but those big identity shifts where you feel like you are shedding an old version of yourself, but you're not yet who you are becoming. It's an initiation and also where your next level of potential lies.
Let's talk about what it looks like, what the Liminal Space is actually asking of you and how to navigate it faster to become your Elevated identity and achieve her/his results.

In 2011, he published Embracing the New Era, offering a bold and practical exploration of innovation in modern work and life.

Mark Entrekin is a passionate advocate for achieving unity by harnessing the power of encouragement, inspiration, and inclusion. He helps individuals and organizations move beyond frustration, disconnection, and prejudgment by rethinking the cultural lessons and learned behaviors that shape how we see ourselves and others.

By re-evaluating these learned patterns, he guides people to ask, "Where's the value in this behavior?" and to transform frustration into understanding, anger into connection, and prejudice into unity.

Through his work, Mark shows audiences how to create a more inclusive, compassionate, and empowered culture—one based on today's knowledge rather than yesterday's assumptions.

Doug talks to us about how to stop fights and arguments cold by ignoring the words and listening to the emotions.

Imagine walking into a maximum-security prison and entering a concrete room with no windows. In front of you are 15 cages. Each cage has a man inside, shackled hands and feet. They are former gang members. Each of them has killed another human being. These are your students, and your job is to teach them how to stop fights, arguments, and violence in their prison. That is one of the many incredible assignments my guest has taken on in his long career as a lawyer and peacemaker.

Doug Noll is a lawyer-turned-peacemaker who teaches high-performing individuals, leaders, and teams how to resolve conflicts and prevent fights and arguments in literally seconds.

He has trained hundreds of thousands of people on how to de-escalate violence and conflict, from maximum-security prisons to the Congressional Budget Office, where he has trained analysts on how to de-escalate situations involving Members of Congress and their staff.

Doug is the author of four books with his fifth book on leadership empathy coming out next year from Simon & Schuster.

Today he is going to share with us the counter-intuitive skill that allows anyone to calm any angry person in less than 90 seconds. This skill will transform your life forever.

Jerry talks to us about Business, what real success looks like.

Jerry Dale is an author, preacher, and consultant who equips ministries, recovery programs, and small businesses to tell redemptive stories with clarity. He teaches homiletics, mentors men in the Men of Nehemiah program, lectures at global conferences, and develops courses and webinars that champion holistic discipleship and strategic excellence.

Jerry's path reads like a modern-day Damascus-Road story, traversing the glare of marquee lights to the glow of the pulpit. Raised in Oklahoma and moved to Dallas, he cut his professional teeth in the music industry, rising to become Regional Marketing Director for Sony Music's Southwest region. From launching radio campaigns to orchestrating arena tours, he honed an instinct for amplifying voices and shaping culture.

Yet as the beat of late-night studios faded, another stage beckoned. Dale stepped into the world of adult entertainment, ultimately serving as Executive Producer of the Adult Entertainment Awards. The role delivered prestige and profitability—yet it left him profoundly empty. A decade surrounded by fame without fulfillment drove him to the brink, confronting questions no spotlight could answer.

His turning point arrived when the gospel he had long ignored shattered the silence of success. Gripped by the grace of Christ, Dale walked away from both industries and penned the candid memoir Music Porn & Jesus: A Journey to Redemption. The book pulls no punches, chronicling addiction to applause, the lure of lust, and the liberating power of repentance. Its raw honesty has opened doors to recovery centers, churches, and college classrooms where he shares how God recycles broken stories for divine purpose.

Today Dale is pursuing a Master of Divinity, mentored by professors who remind him that "worship is what you ascribe worth to." He teaches homiletics in a preaching club, mentors men in the faith-based addiction-recovery program Men of Nehemiah, and hosted the culture-and-theology podcast No Suga Coatin'. Whether behind a pulpit, a microphone, or a coffee shop table, his message is consistent: Jesus redeems the unimaginable.

Dale also consults small businesses, translating marketing expertise into kingdom impact. He lectures at global conferences and church pulpits, guest-preaches across denominational lines, develops evergreen webinars, and designs online courses such as Mastering the Sovereignty of God & Biblical Counseling, championing holistic discipleship for pastors, students, and people in recovery. He believes strategic excellence is a form of stewardship and equips ministries to tell redemptive stories with clarity.

An ex husband, father, and learner, Jerry Dale now ascribes ultimate worth to the One who rewrote his résumé with mercy. His life's mission is simple: preach the gospel, equip the saints, and prove that no background is too dark for the light of Christ to shine through. He feels most alive when witnessing lost people find lasting purpose in Christ.
