There’s always someone to thank and appreciate. So why don’t we tell people what they mean to us more often?

John Israel, Founder of the Mr. Thank You Project, joins the podcast to share his mission—to elevate the level of gratitude on the planet by inspiring 74 million Thank You cards.

I’m a believer in the “ripple effect”... the idea that one lesson or moment in life can spark something that will change you and the world in bigger ways than you can imagine. And recently, I sat down with Rob Dial (one of my first coaching clients) to share the lessons that have had this effect on my own life and personal development. We talk about the lessons that have helped me stay positive in the middle of life’s biggest challenges (including my most recent battle with cancer) and how to ap...

What kind of future would give YOU the greatest sense of pride, meaning and fulfillment? We know that when we connect with our strengths, we perform at a much higher level. Yet, far too often, we look at what’s wrong, what’s broken and what’s missing as a way to solve our problems and find fulfillment in our lives. What if instead, we looked at where we’ve been at our best—and then determined the factors that led to that success by asking better questions. Questions that would not only help us f...

Nobody succeeds alone. That’s the simple, yet very important takeaway from today’s conversation. When I was young, I didn’t believe I needed anybody’s help.

Luckily, I started to recognize the power of relationships and how building a support system of likeminded and like-hearted individuals would not only catapult the success of my bus...

Today’s conversation with Drew Canole will open your eyes to another way of thinking, being, and living. At one point, Drew was chasing everything for all the wrong reasons.

Do you regularly spend time with people who are challenging you to set bigger goals, and helping you to achieve your goals? Our ability to achieve our goals can be greatly influenced by the people we spend the most time with. Not only can they push us to succeed, but they can also help us define what that success looks like. If you’re like most, financial freedom is an important goal. But what else do you value? What about contribution, health, family, accountability, or even bucket-list adventu...

When we accept life before it happens, we get to keep the power that adversity will try to take away from us. We get to control the narrative.

Which is what you learned in Part 1 of “ Beating Cancer: A Dialogue On Converting Adversity into Advantage ”. If you haven’t heard it, I encourage you to go back and check it out! In Part 2, we continue the...

I never used to think I was a “salesperson” until I realized we are all born with the ability to sell, and selling is a skill that benefits all of us. Think about it...

Now we’re always selling others on our ideas, and most importantly, on ourselves. Today’s guest, Karen Briscoe, is an expert when it comes to selling. Karen and her team have been recognized by t...
