I'm tired of hearing people disqualify themselves before they even begin. The truth is, no matter where you are in life, you’ve got advantages—you're just not seeing them yet. In this episode, I break down why EVERYONE has advantages. I talk about the specific advantages at every age of life, your relationships, your time, and even your relatability, that can be leveraged to build your dream. I also dive deep into why every “strength” is also a double-edged sword, and how to stop letting comparison and excuses keep you from building what you want.    HIGHLIGHTS Why every excuse you’ve been telling yourself has an upside. The advantages you’re missing in your 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond. What people with time, money, or experience often DON’T have. How being relatable is your biggest business advantage right now. What to do when comparison has you feeling stuck.   RESOURCES Looking for mentorship? Join the waitlist for our NEW Mentor Collective mastermind. Make More Sales in the next 90 days - G

How do you know when it’s time to say YES to a business idea, offer, or new product? In this episode, Lori and I break down our decision-making framework for knowing what to pursue and what to say no to. We share the mindset shifts that helped us build Glōci, Frello, and multiple seven- and eight-figure businesses, plus the huge mistake I made when I said yes to a business out of fear. We also break down exactly why we created the Mentor Collective Mastermind for business owners making $25k–$500k/year, and what makes it different from any other program out there.   HIGHLIGHTS What kind of mentorship we wish we had when we started out.

Are you feeling uncertain about the economy? This is your wake-up call. Two days out from my bicep surgery, the news has been flooded with recession talk — and yet, I feel safe financially. In this episode, I share the mindset that helped me rebuild after the 2008 massive financial crisis, what I’m doing right now with my money, and why your ability to earn is your real safety net, NOT how much is sitting in your bank account. Tune in to learn how to solve problems in ANY economy.   HIGHLIGHTS The MOST important factor in your financial future. The difference between fear of the market vs. fear of not knowing how to earn.

Are you quietly tolerating things that are draining your energy? In this episode, Lori and I dive into what it really means to unapologetically raise your standards — in your home, relationships, and your business. We talk about why resentment builds when you stay quiet, how setting clear expectations actually strengthens your team, and why you owe it to yourself and the people around you to say what you want. We also share the story behind Lori’s $1,000 competition bikini, how it helped her land magazine covers, and how even the smallest standards reflect what you’re willing to receive in life.   HIGHLIGHTS What happens when you settle for “good enough”.

Most people stay stuck because they won’t let go of who they’ve been. In this episode, Lori and I break down the five identity shifts we’ve made (and continue to make) to grow our businesses, our brands, and our impact.

I recently crossed 1000 episodes here on the podcast, and you might be surprised to hear the percentage of episodes I felt like recording. I’m looking back on the crazy moments I've recorded episodes – like pulling over in my car or continuing to show up after my stroke – as proof positive why done is always better than perfect.

We create more pain for ourselves by resisting something than by actually doing it. Today, Lori and I dive into how resistance keeps you stuck, delays success, and drains your energy. I share a story about almost talking myself out of a simple trip to visit my mom just because I dreaded the early morning flight, and how it ended up being way easier than I thought. We also break down the science behind why our brains exaggerate discomfort before it happens and the mindset shift that will help you stop wasting energy on stress, eliminate unnecessary hesitation, and move forward faster.   HIGHLIGHTS The 90-day business plan that will eliminate resistance in your business. How your brain tricks you into thinking something will be harder than it is. The real reason you procrastinate (and how to stop). My wake-up call about why I almost skipped a meaningful family trip. Mindset shift to instantly lower stress and make decisions easier.   RESOURCES Check out our FREE 90-Day Business Blueprint HERE! Text
