  2. Overcoming Toxic Independence with 7-Figure Business Coach Cait Scudder

    Overcoming Toxic Independence with 7-Figure Business Coach Cait Scudder

    Cait is a Forbes-featured 7-figure Business Coach for women and, in her words, your excuse’s worst nightmare. But back when we met in 2019, she was in distress. She’d been invited to deliver a TEDx talk, and suddenly found herself in unfamiliar territory. Cait was a master at riffing on livestreams. She had attracted a sizable social media following and went from quitting the 9-5 to multiple six figures as a business coach in just a few years, leaning hard on her magnetism and charisma, grounded in sharp intellect. But a TED talk? That’s a whole different ball game, requiring precision and rehearsal. In just 2 months we clarified her Big Idea, structured the talk, and wrote the script. I had the honor of traveling to upstate New York to watch her deliver the talk live and in-person on the Red Dot. And within 10 minutes of that night, she transformed her business into a 7-figure global empire. Today she’s a millionaire CEO, mom to the most adorable little girl - born just a week after my son - and has another on the way. In this conversation, Cait and I pull back the curtain on the coaching industry: What is a business coach, when do you know you need one, and what should you expect from a coaching relationship? She also explains the difference between 1-1 and group coaching, both for those thinking of joining a coaching program, and for coaches deciding which type of program to offer their clients. And of course, Cait shares her story of a chance encounter with lasting impact. Plus, she gives a super inspirational piece of advice to young professionals trying to make it in this increasingly chaotic and isolated world.

    Telling Stories That Connect with Storytelling Expert Francisco Mahfuz

    Do you want to become more interesting than Netflix? Francisco is a storytelling expert and one of my favorite professional friends. We met a couple years ago when he invited me to be one of the first guests on his podcast, of which I am also the first repeat guest.  It only seemed right that after hours of talking about my work on his show, he should have a chance to talk about his work on mine. And let me tell you, this is one of the most practical episodes in seasons. We discussed the difference between motivational speaking and being a content matter expert, what a story really is and why you should be telling them in business, and where to find stories to tell. Then we did a deep dive on story structure, the different types and when they work, or don’t.  And of course, Francisco shares his story of a chance encounter with lasting impact. Plus, he gives a very practical piece of advice to young professionals trying to make it in this increasingly chaotic and isolated world.

    Becoming Undisruptable with Change Engineer Julia Freeland

    Julia Freeland is a passionate educator and change engineer, who has spent most of her life working to help people break through limiting beliefs and seemingly impenetrable barriers to become better versions of themselves. She is also the author of Take Your Shoes Off First, a parable book with a message near and dear to my heart - perspective-taking. Julia and I discussed that weird head nod teenage boys do, and why it might be more important than you think, the role of language in human connection, how to become undisruptable in your life and career, why today’s world is more like open sea swimming than laps in a pool, the one question that triggers empathy in any conversation, and how to get your kids to eat vegetables. And of course, Julia shares her story of a chance encounter with lasting impact. Plus, she gives a lovely piece of advice to young professionals trying to make it in this increasingly chaotic and isolated world.

    Recovering From Social Anxiety - Entrepreneurship with Top 100 Podcaster Mark Metry

    Mark Metry is an entrepreneur, a Forbes featured TEDx and keynote speaker, and a podcast host who has interviewed billionaires, New York Times bestselling authors and world-class human beings on his Global Top 100 podcast. But once upon a time he couldn't make direct eye contact with anyone. Mark suffered from social anxiety. And boy can I relate to that. In this conversation we discussed the seeming contradiction of running a group program for people with social anxiety, his background as an immigrant who overcame bullying, racial discrimination, and health issues to become a success entrepreneur in his teens, how he pushed through social anxiety to become a global top 100 podcaster, and crucially, how to know when to quit a project or task.  And of course, Mark shares his story of a chance encounter with lasting impact. Plus, he gives a critical piece of advice to young professionals trying to make it in this increasingly chaotic and isolated world.

  6. The Barrel of a Loaded Calendar - Reclaim your humanity with writer Corey McComb

    The Barrel of a Loaded Calendar - Reclaim your humanity with writer Corey McComb

    Corey McComb is a writer based in San Diego. Through blog posts, essays, and the occasional short story, Corey examines the human condition and new ways of thinking. He also works with people and companies who need to tell their stories to launch products and spread ideas. And speaking of spreading ideas, that’s how I came across Corey’s work: his brand new TEDx talk. It’s called, “Productivity Is For Robots! Here’s How to Stay Human.” And it quickly became one of my all-time favorite TEDx talks. As someone who has both given a viral TEDx talk myself, and coached dozens of speakers to spread their big idea on the red dot, I was absolutely blown away by Corey’s content, delivery, structure, and of course, writing. In this conversation we discuss many things, but it all centers on being a professional creative. How do you get ideas, balancing business with creativity, why you should be a collector of stories, what he did when he went completely blank during his TEDx talk, how comedian John Mulaney changed his life… And of course, Corey shares his story of a chance encounter with lasting impact. Plus, he gives a terrific piece of advice to young professionals trying to build their career in an increasingly unpredictable world, so be sure to stick around to the end of this longer episode. It’s worth it.

  7. Making Ideas Behave - Crafting Irresistible Messages with Tamsen Webster

    Making Ideas Behave - Crafting Irresistible Messages with Tamsen Webster

    Today’s guest Tamsen Webster, and she’s just as cool as her name suggests. Tamsen is a message strategist. In a sentence, she helps experts make their ideas irresistible. She’s the former executive producer of TEDx Cambridge, one of the legacy TEDx conferences and before that spent 13 years as a Weight Watchers leader. But those of us in the industry know her as The Idea Whisperer. I’m a huge fan of Tamsen and her work, and last year she finally released a book detailing her proprietary method for crafting ideas into irresistible messages. It’s called Find Your Red Thread. I bought it, read it in one day, and immediately implemented it in my work as a speaker AND in my own coaching practice working with TEDx speakers and leaders. The episode you’re about to hear is less an interview and more a conversation between two geeks over ideas, storytelling, and messaging. Some topics we covered: What is a red thread? Why are ideas so important? Behind-the-scenes look at the TEDx process. How to differentiate your idea from everyone else’s, when it seems like there are no new ideas left in the universe. Tamsen explains the persuader’s paradox, which I thought would make a great name for an indie rock band. She also dives deep into why typical story structures just don’t work for normal, everyday situations and what we can do instead. And of course, Tamsen shares her story of a chance encounter with lasting impact. This episode is dense and absolutely jam-packed.  Connect with Tamsen: Website: https://TamsenWebster.comFind Your Red Thread: https://amzn.to/3qVY0va
