781: Jen Nash – Tiny Connections, Big Outcomes

Expounding on the theme of 'creating your own good luck' discussed in a recent episode, today my guest Jen Nash and I talk about how the things that so many of us want – career success, financial security, an exciting life, or just 'getting lucky' – may be achieved simply by the power of connection. If, like me, you don't like "networking," this enlightening conversation provides a helpful alternative. By looking at connection-building as a series of ordinary, everyday occurrences consisting of tiny connections – instead of as onerous "networking" activities – connecting with others to achieve big outcomes becomes unintimidating…and even fun! Jen Nash helps us take a deeper look at how anyone can create deeper more powerful connections in modern life, one interaction at a time. She is an executive coach, facilitator, speaker, and author of The Big Power of Tiny Connections: How Small Interactions Spark Awesome Outcomes. Trained in the field of communication, Nash has a powerful grasp on what is required to turn a brush of fate into a life changing event. When she's not empowering others to live a more connective life, Nash lives between New York City or Los Angeles or San Miguel de Allende, Mexico.

779: Dr. Marshall Goldsmith – Living an Earned Life

We may be given life, but life itself is not a given. It is to be earned. In this episode, we speak with Dr. Marshall Goldsmith about what it means to live a deliberate life, avoid regret, and achieve an 'earned life.' For Dr. Goldsmith, an earned life occurs when our risks, efforts, and commitments are aligned with a higher purpose, regardless of the results. Those of us who are self-employed entrepreneurs are usually ambitious and focused on results. But in this fascinating conversation, Dr. Goldsmith wisely advises us to never base our self-worth on results, and never assume happiness comes from results. Rather, you can choose fulfillment, regardless of results. Dr. Marshall Goldsmith is a member of the Thinkers 50 Hall of Fame. He is the only two-time Thinkers 50 #1 Leadership Thinker in the World. He has been ranked as the World's #1 Executive Coach and Top Ten Business Thinker for eight years. Marshall was chosen as the inaugural winner of the Lifetime Award for Leadership by the Harvard Institute of Coaching. A New York Times #1 bestselling author, Dr. Goldsmith has written or edited 43 books which have sold over 2.5 million copies, been translated into 32 languages, and become listed bestsellers in 12 countries. Amazon recently recognized the '100 Best Leadership & Success Books Ever Written' and included Marshall's Triggers and What Got You Here Won't Get You There. He is the only living author with two books on the list. His other bestsellers include: MOJO, Succession: Are You Ready?, The Leader of the Future, and How Women Rise (with lead author Sally Helgesen). Dr. Goldsmith's new book is The Earned Life: Lose Regret, Choose Fulfillment, published May 3rd by Penguin RandomHouse.

777: Shira Miller – Getting Unstuck!

Almost all of us have felt 'stuck' at some point in our lives. Some of us go through temporary phases of feeling stuck, some of us feel chronically stuck, and some of us feel stuck in some areas of our lives but not in others. (Those of us who are entrepreneurs and self-employed are certainly not immune to feeling stuck.) Our guest today, Shira Miller, felt significantly stuck in her life – so much so that she now specializes in studying why people feel stuck, identifying the 'types of stuck,' and most importantly, helping others learn to get unstuck! Who doesn't want to 'get unstuck' for good? Shira Miller, a two-time TEDx speaker, Certified Professional Coach and a former entrepreneur turned Chief Communications Officer of a $2 billion corporation, knows a lot about getting unstuck – and teaching people how to do the same for themselves. She has transitioned from financial ruin to prosperity, chronic health challenges to a constant state of wellness, obesity to sustaining a healthy weight loss, divorce to lasting love, and an unfulfilling career to a purpose-driven life. Her new book Free and Clear: Get Unstuck and Live the Life You Want, features a step-by-step process for getting unstuck and staying that way for good. She lives in Atlanta, Georgia with her super cool husband.

We often associate being overwhelmed with being a negative. Understandably, because being overwhelmed can often be paralyzing, dealing only with what's in front of us.

775: Dr. Christian Busch – Create Your Own Good Luck

Serendipitous events – a chance encounter, the right word at the right time – may seem to be a matter of random luck or the whim of the universe. But what if serendipity is not actually a matter of pure chance? Might we have more control over luck than we think? Guest Dr. Christian Busch explores what's really behind serendipitous moments in this fascinating conversation. He explains how we can make accidents meaningful…and how we can create more meaningful accidents.

773: Kent Vanho - Solving Business Challenges Using Data

Data is the not-so-secret tool to understand your target audience, the messaging that resonates with them, and how to find them. Executive coach Kent Vanho is here today to talk about how data can be used to scale a business, solve challenges, and make your marketing leakproof. He's developed a proven sales process, system, and machine that can drive client businesses to multi-six and seven-figure businesses. Kent left the corporate world after 17 years at Cisco. He then scaled his consulting firm to over $624,000 in annual recurring revenue. It only took him three months using his systems and strategies that we talk about today. He is now on a mission to help other coaches, consultants, and service-based businesses scale beyond what they thought was possible. He teaches using systems and strategies that free up time and space for the important stuff. Some people think they don't like numbers and data and all the tedious analysis, but Kent says that some tools and platforms can help gather and analyze the data. We can do the work once and reap the rewards for a long time. He even refers to a data-driven business as leakproof marketing. We go over what a data-driven business is and the importance of quantifying a problem to solve business challenges. Data is so helpful with decision-making. We may leverage our instinct to point us in the right direction, but the data confirms the direction we need to go. We talk about making sure your message resonates and starting with the proper foundation. When you have a system that collects feedback, you'll understand whether your message is working and see what your ideal customers tell you. Data can be a gold mine for making decisions, identifying customers, developing messaging that resonates, and getting noticed by those perfect customers.
