Ep# 052: How to Prepare for a Speech with Confidence!

It wasn't long ago that I nearly froze up seconds before going on stage to give a speech to 8,000 business leaders, CEO’s, and peers. Even though I had prepared, I was not ready and my confidence was not there!

Fast forward a handful of years to present day and I delivered my dream talk on vision in business with the confidence I lacked years before. So what has changed? I have a method. I had a system and plan that I walked through to prepare myself for that moment and today on the show, I'm sharing that method with you!

Ep# 051: Creating Freedom by Scaling Your Business with Anthony Trucks

It's easy to get stuck in the building phase of your business, the hustle, the late nights, to then wake up one day and realize you have less time now as an entrepreneur than you did in your previous career! This is common but doesn't have to be the case for you so today I'm sharing how to build your brand and dream to support that vision of freedom.

I'm giving you tangible takeaways that you can apply to your business and life to create the freedom you're after! If you liked this episode, don't forget to subscribe and share it with a friend.

Ep# 050: Are You In Alignment With Your Vision?

We are celebrating 50 episodes today guys and I can't wait to share with you how this podcast came to be! But I wanted to save a topic that is so fundamental to success for a celebratory episode like today. We're talking about if you are in alignment with your vision. This may seem basic but it's anything but basic and needs to be done every step of the way.

In this episode we're covering how to know if you're on the right track, how to recalibrate your compass to get to where you ultimately want to go, and how to set goals that align with your vision.

A lot of times people think setting goals and moving forward will get you where you want to go but you could be off course. Listen in to hear how to clue in on your long-term vision so you're creating a business that supports that vision, no matter how successful you become!

Ep# 049: What Does it Take to Build a Dream Life with Vito + Anna La Fata

I was sitting at our farm with my good friend (and business partner) Vito and his better half Anna (host of Popsugar Fitness). We were out on the deck with a glass of wine (obviously) watching the sunset riffing on all things business. It was one of those moments where it hits you…

This is it. These are the kind of moments that we worked for. THIS is actually what we do for a living! There are so many people out there living beneath their potential, wishing for a way into their dream life. Ain’t gunna happen. That dream is BUILT from the ground up. So the 3 of us held up shop in my office and recorded an episode of Scaling Up and laid it out for you - what does it actually take to build that dream life experience?

Ep# 046: From Procrastination to Focus

For years, I was battling the complete inability to focus. It was crippling! And that spilled over into so many other areas of my life, too. I could hardly focus which meant that everything kept getting put off and I was drowning in the shame of feeling like I couldn’t complete anything. I was procrastinating on just about everything, but I’m not broken and neither are you! I’m teaching what I did to conquer it and why it’s so important!

Ep# 045: A Story That Will Move You To Do More Good with Mary Latham

This is one of my favorite stories of all time… Mary Latham is the girl behind More Good. A 50 state road trip to compile stories of acts of human kindness to create a book to donate to hospital waiting rooms.

Sometimes our purpose isn’t about an idea we monetize - sometimes it’s about following our heart and making our impact.

Ep# 044: Declutter Your Life + Embracing Minimalism with Allie Casazza

If only I could fully express how excited I am to bring you this episode with Allie Casazza… Seriously.

I was actually anxiously awaiting our conversation not just to bring it to you guys, but for myself! Allie is globally recognized for her courses and content that focuses on simple and intentional living. THE DREAM! More simplicity. Less clutter. More peace. Less stress.

Ep# 043: An Honest Conversation You Need to Hear with Kari Keating

Sometimes the world of entrepreneurship looks glamorous or like it’s all about taking Pinterest-worthy pictures and tricking everyone into believing that it comes with all the money, freedom and fulfillment…That’s just BS. It’s TOUGH sometimes! Especially when you’re juggling a family, motherhood, and the comparison game.

Ep# 041: The Cost of Not Taking Action

Did you know there’s a cost to standing still?

That in fact, you’re not standing still. When we’re out of a state of action, we’re actually deteriorating. In our careers, in our relationships, our health, even our state of mind.

So this episode is dedicated to the power of taking action, how to do it and understanding the steep price we pay for thinking we’re standing still.

Episode# 037: Turn Your Pain into Your Power with Trent Shelton

You might know Trent as a former NFL wide receiver or the motivational speaker that’s taking the internet literally by storm, but Trent’s story and the impact that he’s making on the world is so far beyond what each of us perceives…

Episode# 035: Break Free of Comparison + Scale Up Your Everything!

I have yet to meet anyone at any level that hasn’t encountered this problem…Comparison. It robs us of our joy, momentum, creativity and courage. But it’s a practiced habit. Which means that we choose to compare even though it feels innate. We’ve learned this behavior and what that also means is if we choose otherwise, there’s so much more for us. More happiness, drive, success, and life.

Episode #026: What's Keeping You Broke, Average and Stuck!

Time to ruffle a few feathers in this episode!

We are getting into what I believe to be one of the greatest differentiators between those who succeed and those who choose to remain average.

It’s why you might be broke.

It’s why you might be stuck.

It’s why you might feel down and out.

In this episode, we’re talking about the culture of subpar that’s encouraging us to rack up debt and to not go for our dreams.

Just trust me on this one - if you feel stuck or like you’ve totally failed or fallen in any area of your life, this one is for you!

Episode #023: Emotional Intelligence: The Missing Link to Your Success with Monica Epperson

If you’re anything like me and don’t fully understand what emotional intelligence is and how it’s affecting you in ALL you do or don’t do, this is your episode. We talked on episode #021 about unlocking your potential - THIS is one of the keys to that. In business, wealth, family, marriage, happiness, health - ALL of it and I brought to you the BEST person to speak on this subject- MY personal life coach!

With over three decades pursuing the truths in her own story, Monica's walk with God, education, and life experiences have given her a skill set for connecting people to their own stories and I had to bring her on Scaling Up so she can help all of you connect to YOUR STORY!

Episode #020: How to Build a Brand, Not Just a Business with Ashley Mahoney

I didn’t quite understand the power of building a brand over just building a business until I connected with the talented and brilliant Ashley Mahoney of Hello Big Idea! Ashley is the Founder and Creative Director of HBI and she’s the reason that my brand was born a few years back.

So it made perfect sense to bring my friend and the expert behind my E.H. brand, Founder and Creative Director of Hello Big Idea, Ashley Mahoney, onto the podcast! She graciously agreed and dropped some serious knowledge on branding, how it’s done and why it’s so important to success!

IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL HEAR ALL ABOUT…
