When work is crazy, your business requires all your every available "free time," and you have a family you're wanting to make a priority, it's easy to get pulled in a million different directions. I'm not sure about you, but when I was in that spot, I wanted nothing more than to be able to excel at it all... But that quickly turned into me physically and mentally burning myself out. What if I told you there's a way that you can win at it all, and not in a way that requires you to sacrifice yo...

With all that we have going on in our personal lives and business, especially while still working a full time job and having kids to take care of, it's easy to convince ourselves we need to take a step back. One step forward, two steps back. What happens if we keep doing that though? We think we need to take a step back, which ultimately gives the outside world to control our success. What if there was another way? An uncommon set of strategies for business success in busy seasons of our li...

Have you ever heard of the 75 HARD? It's a vigorous physical training program designed by Andy Frisella that helps build mental toughness. I've personally done it three times, and every time I have come out stronger on the other side..... IN MY BUSINESS How? I used the same principles that you'll learn in today's episode, only in my business as well. It allowed me to 4X my income in one year, and actually take more vacations with my family than I ever had. Oh, and I got into the best shape...

How many times have you "started over", feeling like you're all the way at the beginning and starting from scratch? How does that FEEL in your body when you even think about starting over? Terrible, right? So let's get out from under this BS that we tell ourselves that helps keep us stuck exactly where we are at. Because thinking that you're "starting over" is the worst thing you can think if you actually want to make progress in that specific area. I get why you'd think that... Maybe you h...

Last week I was watching one of Alex Hormozi's videos inside of a program I had paid for, where he shared one of the most powerful (but also most humiliating) business questions that we all need to ask ourselves daily. Basically, the people who are watching us are constantly asking themselves this question, even if they don't know it. And we need to answer it for them IN ADVANCE, or they will piece out. You're actually doing it right now as you're reading these words... Which is why we need y...

Have you ever wanted to come up with podcast or YouTube video topics that will compel people to watch and listen, but when you get started... you realize you're just staring at a blank screen wondering when creativity with strike you? If so, we want to share how we have been using ChatGPT to not only come up with topics and outlines, but use it in a way that creates curiosity and demand to get people to actually want to watch or listen to them! If you're someone who's been listening to our sho...

Building a business can be hard, but I've found most of us actually make it harder. I wanted to build a business on MY terms... but before I knew what was happening I started to think that in order to succeed I either needed to give up more, put other things on hold, or just work my face off until I "hit it big." Only all of those things lead me to overwhelm, burnout, and not much success. At least that's what it did for me and lots of business owners I've coached over the last 11 years. So ...

The best way we can lead others is by leading by example. In our programs, we call it Modeling... Which is 1 of the 4 M's of influence that we teach. But it's such an easy thing to overlook. Often times I've tried to control other people's actions with my words, with boundaries, and with ultimatums (oh, and the removing of Xbox privileges for a week) but that never works as well as I want it too. Which is why we made today's video for you. We want to share how leading by example can inspire...

Have you noticed that business IS leadership. I decided that instead of finding the next "hack" "script" or "secret" to selling more of my stuff, it was time for me to learn about leadership. Let me ask you this... How do YOU end up connecting with someone and eventually buy their product/program? Take a second and let me know in the comments, because success leaves clues, and you might very well find out something powerful by reflecting on what gets YOU to take action. For me... Something a...

Have you ever wondered how some leaders inspire you to take massive action, while others make you want to run in the opposite direction? Having studied so many great leaders, and getting the opportunity to lead as a Sergeant in my 20 year LAPD career, as well as coach some incredible leaders in my business, I've been able to discover three universal ways the best leaders inspire people to take massive action. Because if you want massive results for you and your team, it starts by getting other...

Whether you're a coach or not, just thinking about the title of "Master Coach" feels amazing, right? It's a step above a coach, which brings along with it, a certain level of credibility. It requires you to upgrade your skills and confidence though too. So what does it take to MASTER the skill of coaching? We are going to do that by following 3 universal principles today.

Everyone has off days, whether today is one of those days or not, I want to share the unusual strategies I've found to get me through those tough days when you don't feel like showing up. Being a former police officer for 20 years, suffering through an autoimmune disease, creating and running an online life coaching school, and trying to be an intentional parent and spouse, I can't have many "off days" or they quickly turn into off weeks and before I know it I'm back where I first started. Tha...

If you've ever procrastinated, you might be frustrated at yourself and your lack of action.... and beating yourself up about it is not helpful. Neither is labeling yourself as a "procrastinator." You don't always procrastinate, it's just an action you took at that specific moment. But there's one more caveat. Did you know that procrastination is something that you brain is naturally doing to keep you safe? There is NOTHING wrong with you... Now, there are a few ways you can overcome it tho...

Did you know that we sometimes inadvertently plant our own limiting beliefs in others that we coach, in our friends, and especially our kids? We don't do it in on purpose, most of the time we don't even have any idea that we are doing it. But it can do some serious damage when we are the people actually holding others back. If you've ever found yourself talking about your beliefs around time, money, relationships, health... You could be planting weeds in their garden, and I know you want to ...

If you've got an online business, you know content creation is an important part of the process. Posts, videos, podcasts, emails.... They are the staple of our online business. We use content to: - Plant the seeds for what we can do for others - Show others what we stand/believe in - Get people to connect with us on a deeper level - Attract a certain type of person depending on the message we put out ... to just name a few. But what happens when you start to run out of ideas? Or have writers ...

How can you go from an employee to a business owner / entrepreneur in 3 steps? When people ask me this, most of the time it's because they have started a business and aren't seeing as much success as they want. When we unpack that, a lot of times it's because they have been approaching their business as an employee would. Which is why Teresa and I released this video to help you keep it super simple, because complexity is what kills a lot of businesses, especially when you first start out. W...

There were 5 powerful business lessons I learned from my life coach (Josh Coats) that transformed my life AND business. (Actually, much more than that, but I had to boil it down to 5!) These 5 things helped me lose 100 pounds and get into the best shape of my life despite my autoimmune, helped me rise up the ranks of LAPD, helped me retire early by creating a multi 6-figure coaching business, and helped me become a better father and husband. If any of those are on your goal list, you might be...

Yes, clutter can actually be holding you back in your business. It also goes deeper than that though too. We realized this after OCD and ADHD became apparent in our family, which caused us to look for ways to declutter not just our business, but our life. Here are the top 3 ways we've seen clutter hold us back in our business: It can easily get us into overwhelm thinking we need to do it all right now or our world is going to collapse. It can pull our focus away from what's actually importa...

As business owners and leaders, we want to help people solve problems so they can create massive results The problem we run into is when they keep getting in their own way, talking themselves out of it, or allowing outside circumstances to dictate what they do or don't do. That's where coaching trumps everything. One of the most powerful things we can do for them, is use the power of questions to help them reach their own conclusions, thus getting them to buy into THEIR WHY. Not in a way tha...

You might have heard about AI (Artificial Intelligence), specifically ChatGPT, and it might be giving you a sick feeling in your stomach. What happens if this takes over the world and makes my coaching business obsolete??? Hold on now, let's not get ahead of ourselves.

As a matter of fact, this is actually a great thing for your coaching business if you're someone who'...

If you're a coach, getting your clients to take more action so they can create more results is incredibly important. We all want to help make a bigger impact, and we can't do that if we can't help others with taking action. But what happens when what you're doing isn't working? Your client keeps coming back to you without taking action, and you're starting to doubt your abilities to coach? Or maybe you're starting to get angry because if all they did was follow your directions, they'd be abl...
