    Weaponizing Joy: The Strategic Path to True Fulfillment with Jennifer Gomez

    Send us a text What if joy could be your most powerful weapon? Not against others, but against fear, burnout, and unfulfillment?  In this transformative conversation, Jennifer Gomez (The Joyful Strategist) reveals how weaponizing joy can become your strategic advantage in leadership and life. She shares her personal journey from external happiness to authentic inner joy after experiencing a complete life reset that forced her to examine what truly brought fulfillment. Jennifer distinguishes between happiness—a fleeting emotion tied to external circumstances—and joy—a sustainable state of peace and contentment. Positioned just below enlightenment on the emotional spectrum, joy remains curiously underexplored in psychology despite its transformative power. We explore the concept of "joy anchors"—those small moments of gratitude or contentment that can sustain us through challenging times. By intentionally creating and remembering these anchors, we train our brains to notice more positive experiences around us, creating an upward spiral of joy. For leaders especially, joy becomes a competitive advantage. How many organizations suffer from burnout, low retention, and toxic cultures because leaders operate from fear rather than joy? When we lead from authentic joy, influence becomes natural and impact more meaningful. Perhaps most revolutionary is Jennifer's challenge to flip the traditional 80/20 rule. What if we spent 80% of our energy on activities that bring joy and only 20% on those that drain us? This isn't about abandoning responsibilities but redesigning our approach to life.

    Rebuilding a Marriage While Growing a Business with Jenny Townsend

    Send us a text Every entrepreneur dreams of building a thriving business, but what happens when that success comes at the cost of your most important relationships? Jenny Townsend's powerful journey reveals exactly what's at stake when we focus solely on professional achievement while neglecting personal connections. As founder and CEO of Music Compound, Jenny built an impressive music education company with 32 team members and growing success. Yet behind the scenes, her marriage was crumbling. The wake-up call came in 2018 when she discovered her husband's affair with a coworker. Rather than simply playing victim, Jenny took a remarkable approach: she owned her contribution to the breakdown. "I had to say, 'Yes, I didn't care about our marriage. Yes, I worked until eight o'clock every night. Yes, I decided to work over spending quality time with family,'" Jenny reveals with striking candor. This accountability became the foundation for rebuilding not just her marriage but her entire approach to life and business. What makes this conversation particularly valuable for entrepreneurs is Jenny's discovery that stepping away from her business actually improved it. When she followed her mentor's advice to walk away for a month, her team stepped up in extraordinary ways. "They totally took the company from red to black. They made it from old school to new school," she explains. This counterintuitive lesson—that rest is actually an income-producing activity—transformed how she approaches leadership. Jenny shares practical wisdom for maintaining work-life balance, including the importance of clearly communicating your vision to your team, being transparent about challenges, and defining your role when transitioning between different levels of involvement in your business. She recommends all entrepreneurs periodically step away from their businesses to build team independence and gain fresh perspective. The personal crisis inspired Jenny to create "The Stroke It Guide" book and podcast, where she explores how everyone needs to feel "stroked"—loved, validated, and appreciated—whether they're your spouse, your employees, or yourself. Her ground rules for relationship repair, particularly the crucial first step Support the show Unlock the secrets to online business success with these FREE and low-cost resources from Nicole! -Join our supportive FB Group to connect with like-minded entrepreneurs and get exclusive tips and advice: https://nicoletuxbury.com/facebook -Get your copy of the Best of the Profit Machine Summit Book shipped to you to learn from 15+ experts on how to turn your online business into a Profit Machine for only $13! https://nicoletuxbury.com/profit-machine-summit-e-book/ - Get instant access to the Coaches Guide To Print on Demand Video Course + Spreadsheet for only $17: https://nicoletuxbury.com/product/coaches-guide-to-pod-with-resource-file/ Explore these amazing resources and start your journey to success today!

    Mastering SEO: How to Get Found Online Without Spending on Ads with Brandon Leibowitz

    Send us a text The mystery of SEO continues to baffle many business owners despite its incredible power to drive free, targeted traffic to websites. In this enlightening conversation with SEO expert Brandon Leibowitz, we unpack the fundamentals of search engine optimization in a way that's refreshingly accessible and immediately applicable. Brandon shares a startling revelation about how changing just one letter in your keyword strategy could potentially increase your traffic tenfold. Using the example of "personal injury lawyer" versus "personal injury lawyers," he demonstrates how simple research can dramatically impact your visibility. The conversation demystifies keyword research through free tools like Google Keyword Planner and clever tactics like analyzing competitor strategies and utilizing Google's autocomplete feature. Beyond keywords, we explore the critical role of backlinks—those digital votes of confidence from other websites that signal trustworthiness to Google. Brandon emphasizes that modern backlink building is about quality rather than quantity, and shares practical ways to acquire these valuable links through relationships and value-offering, including podcast appearances, guest blogging, and providing expert commentary. He explains why examining competitor backlinks can reveal opportunities you might otherwise miss. What about SEO in the age of AI? Despite concerns that tools like ChatGPT might make traditional SEO obsolete, Brandon explains why optimization remains crucial. As long as people are searching somewhere—whether on Google, YouTube, or through AI interfaces—there are ways to improve visibility. For those looking to optimize for AI discovery, Brandon recommends focusing on answering common questions people ask about your topics. Whether you're a business owner, content creator, or marketing professional, this conversation offers both foundational knowledge and advanced insights to help you harness the power of organic search. The most valuable takeaway? Patience. Unlike paid advertising, SEO is an investment that builds over time, rewarding those who consistently apply best practices with sustainable, free traffic that doesn't disappear when the ad budget runs out.

    Redefining Your "All": Breaking Free from Burnout with Jo Stone

    Send us a text What happens when you finally achieve everything you thought would make you happy, only to discover it's left you exhausted, guilty, and disconnected from yourself? That's exactly where Jo Stone found herself - Chief Marketing Officer for a listed company, mother of two, serving on a non-profit board, competing in triathlons, and living in the dream house she built from scratch. By all external measures, she'd succeeded brilliantly. Yet something was profoundly wrong. Jo takes us on her courageous journey of what she calls "ego death" - selling her meticulously designed dream house (with its color-coded bookshelves and carefully researched water features), quitting her executive position, and essentially blowing up the life she'd built to discover what truly mattered. Through tears and fierce self-examination, she confronted the uncomfortable truth that much of what she'd been striving for wasn't actually bringing her joy or fulfillment. Today, as founder of The Balance Institute, Jo helps ambitious women avoid the burnout path she experienced. She shares powerful insights about reconnecting with our authentic selves, practicing "micro-doses" of self-care instead of rare extravagant self-care days, and moving beyond superficial gratitude practices to genuine embodied joy. Her most liberating message? "You can have it all, but only once you work out what YOUR all is." This distinction frees us from chasing others' definitions of success and allows us to create lives that truly resonate with our deepest values. Whether you're questioning your current path, feeling the weight of achievement that doesn't satisfy, or simply seeking more authenticity in your life, Jo's story offers both validation and practical wisdom. Connect with her through her podcast "Balance and Beyond" or visit balanceinstitute.com to discover how you might redefine success on your own terms.

    Failure as Fuel: Rachel Pederson's Journey

    Send us a text Rachel Pederson's journey from welfare recipient to working with industry titans like Russell Brunson isn't your typical success story. What makes her path remarkable isn't just how far she's come, but her willingness to shine a light on her failures—both past and present. As a naturally introverted pastor's daughter raised in poverty, Rachel learned early that "survivors never quit." This mindset carried her through alcoholism, debt, and single motherhood at 21, leading to beauty school and a career as a hairstylist. But everything changed when a salon client asked about her marketing approach and unexpectedly offered her a consulting position. Within nine months of taking her business seriously, Rachel had replaced both her income and her husband's. In our conversation, Rachel courageously opens up about a recent business failure—her "90 Day Business Magic" program that collapsed under the weight of medical issues, grief, and family crises. Rather than glossing over this setback, she unpacks the valuable lessons learned: the importance of stepping back when things aren't working, creating distance for objective analysis, and sometimes having the courage to abandon ship completely. The most transformative element of Rachel's journey has been her practice of gratitude. Following a public breakdown that damaged her reputation, she rebuilt with gratitude as her foundation—starting each day appreciating her cozy bed and celebrating small wins with enthusiastic "yas!" exclamations. This seemingly simple practice has revolutionized both her business approach and life experience. What's particularly refreshing about Rachel's philosophy is her commitment to accessibility. Drawing from her experience finding designer shoes for 99 cents during her struggling days, she understands that free and affordable offerings create lasting loyalty. This belief guides her business model, where she prioritizes giving away high-quality content rather than hoarding knowledge behind paywalls. Whether you're facing burnout, questioning your business direction, or simply seeking authentic connection in your entrepreneurial journey, Rachel's insights remind us that there's always hope after failure—and sometimes Support the show Unlock the secrets to online business success with these FREE and low-cost resources from Nicole! -Join our supportive FB Group to connect with like-minded entrepreneurs and get exclusive tips and advice: https://nicoletuxbury.com/facebook -Get your copy of the Best of the Profit Machine Summit Book shipped to you to learn from 15+ experts on how to turn your online business into a Profit Machine for only $13! https://nicoletuxbury.com/profit-machine-summit-e-book/ - Get instant access to the Coaches Guide To Print on Demand Video Course + Spreadsheet for only $17: https://nicoletuxbury.com/product/coaches-guide-to-pod-with-resource-file/ Explore these amazing resources and start your journey to success today!

    World Travel After 60: Breaking Barriers and Finding Adventure with Kerry Damiano

    Send us a text Have you ever dreamed of exploring the world but found yourself held back by fears of traveling alone? Meet Kerry Damiano, Ms World Traveler, who has visited more than 130 countries and launched her travel business in her sixties, proving it's never too late to embark on new adventures. In this energizing conversation, Kerry reveals how solo travel builds transferable confidence that extends into every aspect of life. "Once you do it by yourself, you realize I can do this, I can conquer," she explains, drawing fascinating parallels between the courage needed for international exploration and entrepreneurship. For those hesitant to take the leap, Kerry offers practical "baby steps" - starting with weekend getaways close to home or joining organized group travel where logistics are handled while still maintaining independence. What makes Kerry's perspective so valuable is her authenticity. She openly shares her travel mishaps, like arriving in Ibiza during off-season when everything was closed, and transforms these experiences into learning opportunities for her audience. This mirrors the entrepreneurial journey where "failures" become stepping stones to greater wisdom. She also emphasizes the critical importance of rest, even amid exciting adventures, reminding us that both travel and business-building take physical and mental tolls that require intentional recovery. Perhaps most inspiring is Kerry's rejection of age-based limitations. With her mantra "60 is the new 30," she's working harder than ever on her YouTube channel and loving every minute. Whether you're contemplating your first solo trip, building a business, or simply wondering if it's too late to pursue a passion, Kerry's story will inspire you to take that first brave step beyond your comfort zone. Check out her unique travel content on YouTube at Ms World Traveler, where she focuses on fashion, style, and design rather than typical tourist information.

    Stage Nerves to Stage Presence with Albert Bramante

    Send us a text What if the difference between freezing on stage and flowing under pressure came down to a few trainable behaviors? We sat down with Dr. Albert Bramonte—a rare blend of New York theatrical talent agent and psychology PhD—to unpack the practical tools that turn anxiety into presence and presence into impact for hosts, speakers, and entrepreneurs. Albert pulls back the curtain on improv as a business superpower: the “yes, and” mindset that keeps you agile when slides fail, questions curve, or timing shifts. We dig into story structure that actually serves an audience—using a simple feel–felt–found arc to be vulnerable without oversharing, to go deep and still guide listeners back to a clear takeaway. You’ll hear why karaoke (yep, sober) is a surprisingly effective exposure exercise, how “act as if” leverages physiology to shift your psychology, and the small rituals that broadcast calm and credibility the moment you take the mic. We also talk reps, resilience, and real feedback. Aim for 100 episodes before you judge your voice. Treat “failure” as data and build a happy file—a physical record of compliments, reviews, and small wins—to counter self-doubt when it spikes. Albert shares techniques to maintain connection when tech breaks, to make eye contact that feels like a conversation, and to keep going without drawing attention to stumbles. The throughline is simple: confidence is a practice, not a personality trait, and performers and founders share the same stage. If you’re ready to speak with more clarity, warmth, and authority—without sounding like a robot—this conversation is your playbook. Subscribe for more practical psychology and performance tools, share with a friend who’s stepping onto a stage, and leave a review with the one tip you’ll try next.

    Art As Leadership with Raphy Mendoza

    Send us a text What if your art isn’t just output—but leadership? We sit down with Raphy, an artist and coach, to reframe creativity as a public act of meaning-making and community-building. From the first minutes, we push past “paintings on walls” into the deeper work of identity: who you are, what you stand for, and how a brand becomes magnetic when it’s built from the inside out. That shift changes everything—your confidence, your pricing, your audience, and the spaces you choose to create online and, crucially, offline. Raphy brings stories that land. She shares a sweeping exhibition of nearly a thousand paintings made in under a year, each capturing an “energetic signature”—the bark of a dog, the turn of a season, a memory surfacing in stillness. We talk about intentional pricing, accessibility, and why her next collection pares down to thirteen large works at premium rates to honor depth and scope. We also dive into the rising tide of AI. If art is treated as decor, it’s replaceable. If art is leadership, ritual, and shared presence, it becomes irreplaceable. That’s why we’re bullish on local gatherings, third spaces, and exhibitions that can only exist because a human is holding the room. For creators feeling stuck, Raphy offers a powerful 30-day series of journaling prompts to locate energy leaks and identity blocks—real work that reignites flow and clarity. The closing advice is simple and strong: know who you are, accept it fully, and gather people who truly get you. Whether you paint, write, compose, design, or guide immersive retreats in the woods, your practice can become a vessel for values, connection, and change. Press play to rethink your role in a future shaped by both matter and mystery, and leave with practical steps to build a brand that people feel—and follow. If this conversation resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs a creative nudge, and leave a review so more artists can find their people.
