    Baseball Hall of Fame: Fixing a Broken Voting System |DAVID GUE

    Baseball is generational. I grew up listening to Tigers games on the radio. The game meant something. It still does. So when the Hall of Fame misses on greatness — it matters. In this episode, I sit down with baseball historian and author David W. Gue to challenge the current voting system and ask a bold question: Are we honoring excellence… or protecting narratives? 🧠 What We Cover The Voting Problem The Barry Bonds Debate Tommy John & The Forgotten Greats 🔥 Leadership Takeaway If a system doesn't reward performance, it loses credibility. That's true in baseball. That's true in business. Leaders fix broken systems. Winners find a way. 👤 About the Guest David W. Gue is the author of The Baseball Hall of Fame: A Fan's Statistical Analysis, advocating for a fair, measurable Hall of Fame voting process. 🎧 Watch or Listen 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@leadershipity 🎙 Podcast: https://podcast.winnersfindaway.us/podcast 👉 Learn more about Trent's Bloom Growth coaching framework here: https://www.bloomgrowthcoach.com/coaches/trent-clark/   Support the Olympic dream: 👉 https://trent-clark.com/olympic--2026

    The Wild World of Youth Sports & Raising Resilient Kids | Gary Thrapp

    We've built elite athletes. But are we building strong humans? In this episode of WINNERS FIND A WAY, I sit down with Gary Thrapp — youth sports advocate, author, and owner of Beyond The Baseline — to talk about where youth sports is headed… and what it's costing us. This conversation isn't soft. It's real. About Gary Thrapp With over 40 years in youth sports, Gary Thrapp has facilitated more than 50,000 games at his facility in Davenport, Iowa 9a8ef877-a0eb-478f-9c46-23d2842… . He's the owner of Beyond The Baseline, a premier basketball and volleyball event center, and author of The Wild World of Youth Sports. Gary focuses on: Leadership development Character formation Community engagement Creating equitable opportunities for kids He works on the front lines of youth development every single day 9a8ef877-a0eb-478f-9c46-23d2842… . And what he's seeing should get every parent's attention. What We Covered 1️⃣ NIL & The Business of Youth Sports The money conversation isn't going away. But when recruiting replaces development… When metrics replace fundamentals… When ego replaces effort… We have a problem. We talked about: NIL filtering down to youth levels The transfer portal mindset Winning vs. developing Recruiting talent vs. building skill 2️⃣ The Hidden Epidemic: Phones & Attention Gary told a story that hit me hard. A third grader asked him: "Why are you making us work while the adults are staring at their phones?" That's leadership. From a third grader. We discussed: Attention spans collapsing Coaches competing with TikTok Parents missing the moments The competitive edge of focus If you want your child to have an advantage? Put the phone down. 3️⃣ Developing a Success Map Gary's book Developing Your Success Map centers on one powerful idea: Ask kids what matters to them. Not what matters to you. We talked about: Purpose Dreams Monthly and daily goals Asking questions instead of lecturing You don't build resilience by talking at kids. You build it by engaging them. 4️⃣ Character > Highlight Reels You can recruit talent. Or you can develop it. You can chase wins. Or you can build people. The scoreboard isn't the ultimate measure. Character is. Resources Mentioned GaryThrapp.com BeyondTheBaseline.net The Wild World of Youth Sports (Available on Amazon) 9a8ef877-a0eb-478f-9c46-23d2842… Leading Winning Teams (Trent M.

    Why Direct Response Marketing Still Wins (and Scales Fast) John Dwyer

    Most companies don't have a marketing problem — they have a response problem. In this episode of WINNERS FIND A WAY, Trent Clark sits down with direct-response master John Dwyer to unpack why incentives, personalization, and execution still outperform brand-only marketing — and how even small businesses can scale fast without massive budgets. About the Guest John Dwyer is a world-renowned direct-response marketer and Founder of The Institute of Wow. His work spans global brands like Disney, McDonald's, Kellogg's, Hilton, and challenger brands that needed fast, measurable growth. He's also known for his legendary campaign that featured Jerry Seinfeld for an Australian financial institution — built not on branding fluff, but bold response-driven strategy. John's philosophy is simple: 👉 Don't make people fall in love with your brand first — 👉 Get them to experience value, then loyalty follows. Key Moments & Ideas Why direct response ≠ infomercial marketing Disney's "Plus One" philosophy and how it applies to leadership How personalization turns customers into advocates The psychology behind incentive-based marketing Facebook lead contests that generate red-hot, self-qualified leads Why most businesses hear great ideas — but never implement them The difference between branding spend and measurable ROI How Seinfeld said "yes" after relentless (and smart) persistence Resources Mentioned 🌐 https://theinstituteofwow.com 🌐 https://leadscontest.com John Dwyer media & bio: https://theinstituteofwow.com/media-resources-2/   🎯 If your growth feels stuck, stop guessing and start responding. ▶️ Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@leadershipity 🎧 Listen on the Podcast: https://podcast.winnersfindaway.us/podcast

  7. The Professional Grinder: Why Winners Never Stop Working with Tyler Morris

    JAN 9

    The Professional Grinder: Why Winners Never Stop Working with Tyler Morris

    Success doesn't come from flashy moments. It comes from showing up—every day—long after most people quit. In this episode, Trent sits down with Tyler Morris—entrepreneur, investor, and what Trent calls a professional grinder. Tyler didn't come from privilege or shortcuts. He grew up in a small town, learned early how to work without recognition, and built his career by outworking, outlasting, and out-learning the competition. After a successful eight-figure exit, Tyler didn't slow down—because grinding isn't a phase, it's who he is. Together, Trent and Tyler unpack: Why being underestimated can be a competitive advantage The difference between grinding and burning out Why alignment beats talent every time How delegation separates small business owners from real operators Why adding value to others is often the fastest way out of a personal or professional low point This is a masterclass in discipline, humility, and long-term thinking. Key Themes & Lessons Winners don't wait for perfect conditions—they prepare Confidence comes from preparation, not ego Teams win championships, not individuals The grind never ends—you just get better at it When you're down, go help someone else Resources Mentioned M2 Digital Marketing Group – Website strategy & growth-focused digital marketing Concept: Minders, Finders, and Grinders (knowing your lane) Athletic mindset applied to entrepreneurship Long-game execution over short-term wins Connect with Tyler Here - https://calendly.com/tylermorris22/schedule_conversation   If this episode challenged you, don't keep it to yourself. 📺 Watch more episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@leadershipity 🎧 Listen to all episodes: https://podcast.winnersfindaway.us/podcast Subscribe, share it with someone who's in the grind, and remember—winners always find a way.

    From $60M Lawsuit to 700 Brands: Shane Barker's Relentless Rise

    Most people quit at the first punch. Shane Barker got hit with a $60M lawsuit — and still found a way to win. In this episode of Winners Find A Way, we break down Shane's journey through entrepreneurship, influencer marketing, Amazon warfare, personal branding, and the gritty truth of building something valuable when no one believes in you. Shane Barker is the CEO and Founder of TraceFuse, the first Amazon-compliant negative review removal system designed to protect brands and restore digital trust. With 25+ years in digital marketing, Shane has influenced Fortune 500 brands, built global influencer strategies, spoken internationally, and now leads one of the most disruptive tools in e-commerce. He's also taught influencer marketing at UCLA, built seven-figure online systems, and helped hundreds of Amazon sellers recover revenue once lost to fraudulent or off-TOS reviews. Shane Barker did not take the traditional path. He took the hard one — the one where: You build businesses with no roadmap. You spend two years solving an "impossible" Amazon problem while everyone tells you it can't be done. Untitled recording_otter_ai You get hit with a $60 million lawsuit from the California Attorney General… and fight it for years until you win. Untitled recording_otter_ai You learn that perseverance isn't inspirational — it's survival.
