What if I told you that 95% of the results in your business come from just 5% of your activities? And what if I told you that for most entrepreneurs, that 5% is the one thing they are actually avoiding or trying to outsource to a robot?

Today, I’m talking all about messaging. I just wrapped up my  three-day Million Dollar Messaging workshop for our Next Level coaching clients, and the breakthroughs were so huge that I had to bring some of those "behind-closed-doors" strategies to the podcast.

In this episode, I’m breaking down how messaging isn't just content, it’s a strategic sequence designed to connect what your audience wants to what you actually sell. I reveal the million-dollar sentence that changes everything, a “Trojan Horse” technique for planting new beliefs, and so much more. 

If you’ve been feeling like you’re digging a pool with a shovel, it’s time to put down the manual labor and start using the "earth mover" of your business. Let’s go!

What really happens when you put a room full of successful entrepreneurs together for three days in Sedona? Is it some "secret club" strategy that nobody else knows about?

In this episode, I’m giving you an exclusive look inside our first 7-figure mastermind retreat of the year. This is the 10th year I’ve run this mastermind, and I’m sharing the raw, unfiltered observations of what is actually working in the online business space right now.

We’re diving into the framework that balances your growth, why your current plateau is actually an invitation to expand your "energetic container," and the one law of problem-solving that will change how you handle hurdles forever.

If you’ve been feeling like you’re working harder but staying in the same place, it’s likely because you’re running the wrong play. These are the specific patterns I’m seeing across the board with our highest-level students, and it’s time for you to use what they’re learning and step into the identity of a true Digi...

Most entrepreneurs are obsessed with the wrong number and chasing "Total Revenue" like it’s the ultimate trophy, but I’m going to tell you something that might hurt a little: Revenue is a vanity metric. 

The truth is if you’re making a million dollars but it costs you $950,000 to get it, you don't have a business, you have a high-stress hobby! 

In this episode, we walk you through the exact framework we use to keep our operations tight and our margins high, including the one number that actually grants you freedom (and no, it’s not your bank balance). We look at  the "natural drift" of waste that quietly bleeds most businesses dry and the specific expenses that actually scale your life, not just your workload.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re asleep at the wheel of your financials or you’re exhausted from trying to out-earn your own overspending, this is your wake-up call. It’s time to stop throwing money at your problems and start mastering the mechanics that actually support the...

What if the business model you’ve been duct-taping together is the very thing keeping you from the success you’re meant for in 2026? Are you still arguing for your limitations while wondering why your growth has stalled? After a much-needed break to celebrate our wedding and recharge on our honeymoon, Jenni and I are back behind the mic to get real about the massive shifts happening in our industry! We’ve seen more disruption in the last 12 months than in the past two decades combined, and a "wait and see" approach is no longer an option. 

In this episode, we unpack the mental shifts required to actually thrive in this new climate. We talk about why your true desires are actually a map to your purpose, how to stop self-sabotaging with goals that don't line up with your actions, and why you have to clean up the mental "mud" if you want to keep the results you're after.

It is time to reclaim your agency and stop letting your brain’s old predictions dictate what’s possible for you, b...

What if the very tools promised to make your life easier are actually making your business more vulnerable as we head into a brand-new year? Are you becoming so dependent on AI that you’ve lost the "human spark" that actually converts? This is the last episode of 2025, and trust me, it may be the most important one that you’ve listened to this year as I pull back the curtain and reveal the five critical things you must prioritize to thrive moving forward.

In this episode, I bring you my predictions for the future of online business and we’re talking sustainability, assets, brand, and more. 

So, if you’re ready to reclaim your role as a thought leader and frequency holder, the time is NOW…let’s go!

Is your cash machine leaking? Are you just focused on making money, only to watch it disappear? Today we’re continuing the BBD Live Keynote Speaker Series, where we’ve been bringing back some of our most impactful past episodes. This one with my good friend Mel Abraham is all about the crucial money conversation you just may be ignoring (but can’t afford to!) and is not only essential listening, but something so important that you need to listen again even if you heard it the first time. 

In this episode, Mel reveals what you need to know to get your money working for you, because it’s just about making the most money possible, but what matters is what you do with it! When this happens, you don’t just have a Business By Design, but you have a LIFE by design! 

Mel will be joining me on the stage this year at BBD Live 2025 in December in Phoenix, Arizona and we are not doing one next year! I don't know when the next in-person one will be, which is why we wanted to pull out all the s...

As entrepreneurs, money impacts every aspect of our businesses, from pricing, team expenses, taxes, and more. But true success goes beyond just having money; it's about fostering a healthy and abundant relationship with it. Today we’re continuing the BBD Live Keynote Speaker Series and replaying a special episode we did earlier this year that is too good not to share! My special guest is none other than Kate Northup, who is back on the podcast to talk everything money and how to heal your relationship with it. 

In fact, it’s almost impossible to have a thriving business without being good with money and keeping a focus on your relationship with it, which is what makes this conversation with Kate such an important one to be having, and to be sharing with you again!

Why are your launches so exhausting, and why is your ideal client walking away right before you make the offer? Is it your content? Nope. Is it your funnel? Think again! This week we’re continuing the BBD Live Keynote Speaker Series, and I’m replaying a past episode with the legendary Tracy Goodwin, who exposes the psychological "masks" you’re wearing that are unconsciously sabotaging your sales and burning out your audience. 

Tracy has personally transformed my business, and in this conversation she reveals how the sound of your voice betrays your deepest core wounds, affecting your launch performance and client retention in mere seconds. 

If you want true connection, you must ditch the performance and start playing the long game of authenticity. So stop masking, and let’s start manifesting!

Is magnetism a quality that you're born with, or can it be learned? Why is it that there are some people that seem to be magnetic, relatable, and truly authentic, so that when they show up on camera, create videos, or content on the Internet, no matter what it is they say, they draw an audience? We’re answering these questions and more in this installment of the BBD Live Keynote Speaker Series! Today's guest, Alex Paulos, is my “secret weapon” that I’ve hired and used myself several times in my own company, and he’s so good that I have him at all of my events to work with my clients as well. 

Recently, I had Alex on one of my Business by Design coaching calls, where he shared this mini-presentation on how to uncover who you really are at your core, and then take down the masks, or the personas, that prevent you from unlocking magnetic levels of authenticity in your life. In fact, this workshop was so good that I knew I had to share Alex and his work with even more people, which is ...
