    Elliott Army Series: If You Think You'll be Single Forever, Watch THIS!

    In this episode of Revenue from Retention, I sit down with Jaden and Wynter, a young married couple whose maturity and drive have shaped an inspiring life together. We dig into what it really means to grow up fast, from Wynter's early years surrounded by political events with her mother to Jaden's military family discipline and church upbringing. They open up about meeting at church as teenagers, taking the leap to move across the country at 18, and building a marriage and business side by side instead of waiting for life to feel "perfect." Wynter shares her journey into wedding photography, the lessons she's learned handling tricky family dynamics on set, and her vision for scaling her business on her own terms. Jaden talks about his growth within the Elliott Group, the mentors who shaped him, and why he believes relationship capital matters more than any bank account. We also get into faith, identity, and how each of them personally knows God is real, plus some surprisingly deep talk sparked by a plastic surgeon's Instagram post about why perfection isn't always approachable. This conversation is full of heart, honesty, and hard won wisdom from two people who are proof that you don't have to wait until you're "figured out" to start building something real. ⭐️CONNECT WITH JADEN & WYNTER ON SOCIAL MEDIA ⭐️ ▶︎ INSTAGRAM: @realjadenhamilton | @wynter.scarpa & @wynterscarpaphotography ▶︎ LINKEDIN: Jaden Hamilton ▶︎ EMAIL: jadenh@elliott247.com | wynter.scarpa@icloud.com ▶︎ WEBSITE: https://wynterscarpaphotography.com/ 🔹🔹CONNECT WITH CELINA ON SOCIAL MEDIA🔹🔹 ▶︎ INSTAGRAM: celina_glennon ▶︎ FACEBOOK: Celina Glennon ▶︎ LINKEDIN: Celina Glennon ▶︎ YOUTUBE: @CelinaGlennon

    The Engineering Industry Exposed in 46 minutes

    I sat down with Michael Daleo, an aerospace engineer turned career coach, to talk about the winding path from UCF engineering school to building a coaching business for engineers. Michael opened up about living two lives in college, getting fired from his first internship at Lockheed only to be rehired within Northrop Grumman, and the mindset shift from striving to sonship that changed how he approached work and life. We covered his move to Arizona, the influence of his coaches and the LA Group, his vision for becoming a startup incubator for engineers, and the advice that scares people most usually points to what they need to cut from their life. A conversation full of heart, ambition, and faith. Michael shared how growing up between Key West and Orlando, with a dad who worked in guest relations at Disney, shaped the way he thinks about hospitality and connection. He talked about his grandfather's influence on his work ethic, the value of coaches in every area of his life, and how he found his way to entrepreneurship through a string of trial and error, from a short stint in life insurance to discovering the LA Group through Ian Macklin's videos. That path eventually led him to launch his own career coaching business focused entirely on helping engineers land the jobs they actually want. We also got into some fun tangents, from hidden speakers at Disney to escape rooms, AI tools, and what the next few decades of technology might look like. Michael's excitement for building something meaningful came through in every story he told, and his belief that business should come from service rather than the chase for money stood out as one of the most grounded parts of our conversation. This episode is for anyone figuring out their own next step, whether that is in engineering, entrepreneurship, or just life in general. ⭐️CONNECT WITH MICHAEL ON SOCIAL MEDIA ⭐️ ▶︎ INSTAGRAM: @daleo_michael ▶︎ LINKEDIN: Michael Daleo ▶︎ EMAIL: 0131michael@gmail.com 🔹🔹CONNECT WITH CELINA ON SOCIAL MEDIA🔹🔹 ▶︎ INSTAGRAM: celina_glennon ▶︎ FACEBOOK: Celina Glennon ▶︎ LINKEDIN: Celina Glennon ▶︎ YOUTUBE: @CelinaGlennon NEW: Join us at https://www.celinaeklund.com/ for premium content - Enjoy!

    If People Do This, You’re Being Manipulated!

    In this episode, I sit down with Randy White, a coach who has spent decades reinventing himself and now helps others do the same. Randy opens up about surviving narcissistic abuse, including a final and defining breakup in 2023 that led him to discover the language for everything he had experienced since childhood. He walks us through how understanding the nervous system, the difference between the ANS and CNS, and the fight, flight, freeze, or fawn responses can completely change the way we see our own conditioning. We talk about boundaries, why people pleasing is really a trauma response rather than a personality trait, and how our conditioned identity often battles our aspirational identity, especially under pressure. Randy shares the Core 4 framework he lives by, body, mind, relationship, and purpose, and explains why pouring into yourself first isn't selfish but necessary if you want to show up for the people you lead and love. Randy also gets personal about his faith, his journey through addiction and rebuilding a business from nothing, becoming a grandfather, and why he believes mentorship is one of the fastest ways to shortcut your own growth. We close out talking about the explosion of AI, what it means for identity and purpose in a changing world, and why community will matter more than ever moving forward. If you have ever felt stuck in old patterns and wondered how to finally break free, this episode is for you. ⭐️CONNECT WITH RANDY ON SOCIAL MEDIA ⭐️ ▶︎ INSTAGRAM: @coachrandywhite ▶︎ LINKEDIN: Randy White ▶︎ EMAIL: coachingwithrandy@gmail.com ▶︎ WEBSITE: Coachingwithrandywhite.com 🔹🔹CONNECT WITH CELINA ON SOCIAL MEDIA🔹🔹 ▶︎ INSTAGRAM: celina_glennon ▶︎ FACEBOOK: Celina Glennon ▶︎ LINKEDIN: Celina Glennon ▶︎ YOUTUBE: @CelinaGlennon

    If You Only Watch 3 Videos a day, Make It This One

    This week, I opened up about the journey that took me from a lost twenty something with no direction to becoming a leader inside The Elliott Group. I shared the moment I first found Andy Elliott on YouTube and the decision I made to do whatever it took to change my life, even when that meant breaking a lease, leaving Spokane, and starting over in Arizona with nothing in my bank account. I talked about identity, belief, and what it really means to pursue total recreation, not just in business but in every part of life. I got vulnerable about the years I spent chasing the wrong things, the relationships that weren't right for me, and the patience it took to finally find the partner who matched my ambition. I also shared how faith carried me through the waiting and how it shaped the family and future I'm building now. We dug into leadership too. I talked about why the person who can develop others the fastest is the most valuable person in any organization, why client experience will always matter more than price or product, and why giving before taking is the foundation of real culture. If you're building a team, chasing a bigger version of yourself, or just need a reminder that transformation is possible, this episode is for you.

    Married, Dating, or Single: Two Relationship Experts Share Their Best Advice

    In this episode of Revenue from Retention, I sat down with Cory and Lori Romero to talk about the foundation behind their marriage, their business, and their ministry. The couple opens up about meeting at Bank of America over a decade ago, the different paths that led them to faith, and the choice to build their household around a relationship with Jesus rather than simply going through the motions of church attendance. Cory and Lori share their journey with Celebrate Recovery, where they now serve on the executive team, and talk candidly about the five year infertility journey and the miscarriages that tested their faith before their daughter arrived. They discuss the decision to homeschool, the reasoning behind stepping away from a dual income household, and what it means to build a marriage on communication instead of convenience. Cory reflects on stepping away from parts of his old motorcycle community to make room for what he describes as a calling toward Celebrate Recovery, while Lori speaks to the quiet, unseen work of running a growing ministry behind the scenes. Throughout the episode, Cory and Lori return again and again to the idea of breaking generational cycles, releasing control, and letting go of whatever holds a person back from being fully present for their family and their community. ⭐️CONNECT WITH CORY ON SOCIAL MEDIA ⭐️ ▶︎ INSTAGRAM: @sober_minded_warrior ▶︎ EMAIL: cory.romero77@gmail.com ▶︎ LINKEDIN: Cory Romero 🔹🔹CONNECT WITH CELINA ON SOCIAL MEDIA🔹🔹 ▶︎ INSTAGRAM: celina_glennon ▶︎ FACEBOOK: Celina Glennon ▶︎ LINKEDIN: Celina Glennon ▶︎ YOUTUBE: @CelinaGlennon

    Don’t Compare Yourself to Anyone Ft. Stephanie Fisher #165

    Today's guest is Steph Fisher, and this conversation feels like catching up with a friend you've known forever. Steph grew up in Colombia before her family immigrated to the United States when she was eight years old, and that journey shaped everything about how she shows up in the world today. She spent a decade as a civil engineer focused on water resources, chasing a dream that started with watching her hometown struggle without access to clean water. Then this year, she walked away from that stable career to build something entirely her own. Steph opens up about the moment that pushed her into content creation and entrepreneurship, the way she and her husband have built a true partnership behind the scenes, and how she keeps her sense of self intact while sharing so much of her life online. She talks candidly about affiliate marketing, about the community she's building for other creators, and about the quiet confidence she's found after years of thinking she wasn't a "public speaking" kind of person. This episode is about more than business. It's about identity, motherhood, courage, and choosing to bet on yourself even when it feels uncertain. Steph brings warmth and honesty to every answer, and by the end of this one you'll probably want to go hug your own mom or call your best friend. Let's get into it. ⭐️CONNECT WITH STEPHANIE ON SOCIAL MEDIA ⭐️ ▶︎ INSTAGRAM: @Stephfi___ ▶︎ EMAIL: Stephfi.social@gmail.com ▶︎ WEBSITE: https://stan.store/stephfi___ 🔹🔹CONNECT WITH CELINA ON SOCIAL MEDIA🔹🔹 ▶︎ INSTAGRAM: celina_glennon ▶︎ FACEBOOK: Celina Glennon ▶︎ LINKEDIN: Celina Glennon ▶︎ YOUTUBE: @CelinaGlennon
