Olivia's business was the definition of success on paper: completely referral-based, continuously growing, with 10-12 hour days that felt like badges of honor rather than warning signs. But when she finally took 30 days off and looked at the math with fresh eyes, she saw something that changed everything: she wasn't building a business that fit the life she wanted five years from now. The uncomfortable truth? The million-dollar pivot everyone suggested would have worked perfectly, but it would have required her to compromise the very values that made her start podcasting in the first place.<br /><br />This episode reveals the dangerous seduction of momentum without structure, why high achievers react fast when they spot misalignment (and why that's often wrong), and the exact moment Olivia realized her $40,000 offers felt heavy not because she didn't believe in her expertise, but because they forced clients to pay more than podcasting as a vehicle for impact should cost. You'll learn why alignment doesn't maximize ego metrics but maximizes integrity, how to spot when you're building visibility versus coherence, and the one-sentence test that determines whether you have a growth problem or a coherence problem.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/72508227</guid><pubDate>Tue, 21 Jul 2026 11:00:02 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/72508227/as_september.mp3" length="27497461" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/597570ed-6968-4d52-83bd-ce0cf7f922f2/597570ed-6968-4d52-83bd-ce0cf7f922f2.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/597570ed-6968-4d52-83bd-ce0cf7f922f2/597570ed-6968-4d52-83bd-ce0cf7f922f2.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/597570ed-6968-4d52-83bd-ce0cf7f922f2/597570ed-6968-4d52-83bd-ce0cf7f922f2.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Olivia Atkin</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>She was working with 60+ clients, hitting revenue milestones month after month, and everyone told her she was underpricing herself-so why did something feel so wrong?

Picture this: a 13-year-old boy so devastated by his parents' divorce that he stops bathing for two and a half weeks, fighting at school and spiraling out of control. That same boy would later tackle 320-pound linemen in the NFL while weighing just 185 pounds. The transformation didn't happen by accident - it happened because of one coach who dared to be vulnerable first. Tyrone's story will shatter everything you think you know about achieving success, especially his controversial take on why the NFL's brutal reality ("not for long") actually prepared him for entrepreneurial triumph.<br /><br />What Tyrone discovered about "controlled chaos" will change how you approach every challenge in your business and life. He shares the exact moment on his rookie field when he knew his NFL career was temporary - and how that knowledge became his greatest asset. From missing a promised visit as a kid to becoming the mentor who always shows up, his journey reveals why vulnerability isn't weakness but the ultimate competitive advantage. Plus, discover the $6.99 app that revolutionized his networking strategy and the framework that's helping thousands navigate life's biggest transitions.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Tyrone Smith: </b><br />Website: <a href="http://www.tyronesmith24.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">tyronesmith24.com</a><br />Email: tsmith_24@icloud.com<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/72508176</guid><pubDate>Tue, 07 Jul 2026 11:00:02 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/72508176/as_tyrone.mp3" length="66968756" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/55c3bcc1-1e3c-4169-8a7b-fcc410bbb2d1/55c3bcc1-1e3c-4169-8a7b-fcc410bbb2d1.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/55c3bcc1-1e3c-4169-8a7b-fcc410bbb2d1/55c3bcc1-1e3c-4169-8a7b-fcc410bbb2d1.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/55c3bcc1-1e3c-4169-8a7b-fcc410bbb2d1/55c3bcc1-1e3c-4169-8a7b-fcc410bbb2d1.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Olivia Atkin</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>Former NFL Player Tyrone Smith reveals the shocking truth about professional sports that no one talks about - and how it became his blueprint for life success.

April Bell, wisdom story alchemist and founder of innovative storytelling methodologies, reveals why the moments we dismiss as obvious to us are often amazing to others. After spending nearly two decades helping everyone from corporate leaders to community elders uncover the wisdom embedded in their life experiences, April discovered she was the reluctant storyteller herself. Her journey from personal historian to story alchemist began when she realized that vulnerability isn't weakness - it's the secret ingredient that transforms surface-level conversations into life-altering connections. Through her Story Catcher app and transformational workshops, April has developed a unique approach to helping people understand not just what they believe, but why they believe it, creating a foundation for clear decision-making in careers, relationships, and personal growth.<br /><br />In this conversation, April shares the exact moment she abandoned her polished elevator speech at a networking lunch and used a simple three-level exercise that completely transformed how 12 strangers connected with each other. You'll discover why every day can be extraordinary when you start listening for the stories in your life, how to practice vulnerability without oversharing, and the framework April uses to turn tangent-filled conversations into powerful wisdom stories. April also reveals her 'obvious to you, amazing to others' principle and explains why the cookie-cutter success formulas aren't working anymore - people are hungry for authentic stories that give them permission to follow their own hearts.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with April Bell: </b><br />Website: <a href="https://aprilbell.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">aprilbell.com</a><br />Email: hello@aprilbell.com<br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/aprilgbell/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">aprilgbell</a><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/72508172</guid><pubDate>Tue, 30 Jun 2026 11:00:03 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/72508172/as_april_bell.mp3" length="64193925" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/4c284dcf-534e-4ac9-b46c-27113e37d0d6/4c284dcf-534e-4ac9-b46c-27113e37d0d6.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/4c284dcf-534e-4ac9-b46c-27113e37d0d6/4c284dcf-534e-4ac9-b46c-27113e37d0d6.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/4c284dcf-534e-4ac9-b46c-27113e37d0d6/4c284dcf-534e-4ac9-b46c-27113e37d0d6.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Olivia Atkin</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>What if the very stories you think are 'just ordinary' are actually your greatest superpowers?

Olivia pulls back the curtain on the hidden responsibility that comes with speaking into a microphone, sharing the profound moment she discovered podcasting isn't just content creation-it's stewardship. When she was laid off from Lockheed Martin at 4 PM and still showed up to record at 6 PM, everything changed about how she understood the relationship between host and listener. This isn't about perfection or having all the answers; it's about the intentional presence that separates content from genuine impact.<br /><br />You'll discover why podcasting behaves differently from social media, how listeners invite you into their most private moments, and the framework Olivia uses to navigate responsibility before, during, and after the mic turns on. She reveals the uncomfortable truth about when sharing becomes oversharing, why restraint is sometimes the most ethical choice, and how presence matters more than polish.

Whether you're hosting conversations or stepping into someone else's show, this episode will shift how you think about the weight your words carry and the trust you're given every time someone chooses to listen.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>1839</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>authentic,authenticity,business,communication,development,entrepreneurship,ethics,intentional,leadership,mindset,personal-development,podcast,podcasting,professional,responsibility</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/baddbb52f18d004525a9e2646232d267.jpg"/><itunes:episode>190</itunes:episode><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Ep. 189 Why He Stopped Cold Calling And Hit 4x His Quota Instead with Ronald Bolden Jr.</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-189-why-he-stopped-cold-calling-and-hit-4x-his-quota-instead-with-ronald-bolden-jr--72282499</link><description><![CDATA[The engineering student who spent three summers doing door-to-door sales training with Zig Ziglar just revealed the system that generates four times normal revenue quotas without a single cold call. Ronald Bolden Jr. built his entire business around one controversial belief: don't buy leads, buy systems. After watching corporate America push cold calling strategies that made him uncomfortable, he developed an entirely different approach that eliminates the need for outbound prospecting altogether. What he discovered will challenge everything you think you know about sales and revenue generation.<br /><br />Ronald's "shy marketing" philosophy isn't just about helping introverts succeed in sales-it's about recognizing that the most sustainable business growth comes from strategic partnerships, AI-powered systems, and making prospects so comfortable they can't help but engage. He shares the exact confrontation with his boss that changed his entire career trajectory, why he only accepts 3 podcast interviews out of 200 requests, and the foundational system that answers prospect questions 24/7 without human intervention.

Actor Kurt Yaeger discovered that sometimes the most devastating moments become the catalyst for extraordinary transformation. After a BMX crash led to the amputation of his left leg, Kurt didn't just pivot his career-he revolutionized how disability is represented in Hollywood.

Business strategist Sunita Kumar shares the exact moment she knew her successful health product business had to end-despite still making money. Her story reveals how our bodies send us signals long before our minds catch up, and why pushing through friction isn't always the answer. Sunita brings a unique blend of Cornell engineering, MBA credentials, and human design expertise to help seasoned entrepreneurs recognize when they're operating from an outdated identity versus their authentic design.<br /><br />This conversation dives deep into the difference between effort that energizes and effort that drains, exploring why so many entrepreneurs get trapped in business models that work on paper but feel misaligned in practice. You'll discover Sunita's framework for recognizing when you're in a 'to-do versus get-to' mindset, her 48-hour rule for avoiding shiny object syndrome, and how she helps clients experience what she calls 'clarity that feels like an exhale.'

Whether you're questioning your current path or feeling stuck despite doing all the right things, this episode offers a fresh perspective on building a business that truly fits how you're designed to operate.<br /><br /><br /><b></b><b></b><b></b>Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Sunita Kumar: </b><br />Website: <a href="https://linktr.ee/iamsunitakumar" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">linktr.ee/iamsunitakumar</a><br />Podcast: <a href="https://www.listennotes.com/podcasts/clear-signal-unfiltered-business-clarity-f9mBv6D5oeG/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Clear Signal: Unfiltered Business Clarity for Entrepreneurs Done With the Noise</a><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>2935</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>alignment,burnout,business,entrepreneurial,entrepreneurship,intuition,pivoting,strategy</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/baddbb52f18d004525a9e2646232d267.jpg"/><itunes:episode>187</itunes:episode><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Ep. 186 How Real Connection Creates Unexpected Opportunities In Business And Podcasting</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-186-how-real-connection-creates-unexpected-opportunities-in-business-and-podcasting--72058895</link><description><![CDATA[What happens when a guest who's been interviewed dozens of times looks you in the eye and says, 'I've never shared that before'? Olivia reveals the moment that reminded her why authentic connection trumps perfect questions every single time. From celebrities to business leaders, she's heard this line more than she can count, and it's taught her something powerful about creating spaces where people feel truly seen and heard.

Mark Astor discovered this harsh reality after seeing the same faces cycle through courtrooms over and over-all struggling with untreated mental health and addiction issues. His journey from "lock them all up" prosecutor to founding the only law firm in America dedicated exclusively to mental health and addiction law reveals a broken system and the innovative legal tools that can actually save lives. Mark's unique approach combines three powerful legal mechanisms-the Baker Act, Marchman Act, and guardianships-often simultaneously, to help families navigate crisis situations when traditional treatment approaches have failed.<br /><br />Through candid stories of his own rock bottom moments, including studying for the California bar exam three times while broke, and the family crisis that opened his eyes to Florida's "draconian" mental health system, Mark shares how personal growth must precede financial growth. His firm now helps hundreds of families annually using legal strategies most attorneys never touch, supported by their own investigation team and clinical experts. You'll discover why he believes addiction and mental health issues are diseases, not choices, and how the right legal intervention can mean the difference between life and death for families in crisis.<br /><br /><b></b><br /><b></b><b></b>Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Mark Astor:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://mentalhealthaddictionlawfirm.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">mentalhealthaddictionlawfirm.com</a><br />Email: mark@astorsimovitchlaw.com<br />Phone: 561-517-9405<br />Podcast: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-journey-with-mark-astor/id1874325636?at=1010l38Ld&amp;ct=listennotes&amp;itsct=podcast_box_link&amp;itscg=30200&amp;ls=1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Journey with Mark Astor</a><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/71897151</guid><pubDate>Tue, 12 May 2026 10:00:02 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/71897151/as_mark_astor.mp3" length="64734687" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/fb311426-5a18-4c02-ae66-3c7ae68d5952/fb311426-5a18-4c02-ae66-3c7ae68d5952.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/fb311426-5a18-4c02-ae66-3c7ae68d5952/fb311426-5a18-4c02-ae66-3c7ae68d5952.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/fb311426-5a18-4c02-ae66-3c7ae68d5952/fb311426-5a18-4c02-ae66-3c7ae68d5952.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Olivia Atkin</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>What happens when a prosecutor realizes the criminal justice system is failing the very people it claims to serve?

You'll discover how this counterintuitive strategy opens doors to breakthrough moments, why becoming a parent shifts your entire relationship with time, and how building genuine trust with collaborators creates space for your best work to emerge.<br /><br /><b></b><br /><b></b>Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>3060</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>acting,boundaries,business,creative,creativity,entrepreneurship,failure,mindset,resilience,screenwriting,success,tips</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/baddbb52f18d004525a9e2646232d267.jpg"/><itunes:episode>184</itunes:episode><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Ep. 183 Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Healed Her 12 Year Migraine Journey with Edna Ness</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-183-hyperbaric-oxygen-therapy-healed-her-12-year-migraine-journey-with-edna-ness--71665813</link><description><![CDATA[After 13 years of chronic migraines that sent her to the ER monthly, Edna Ness stumbled upon a therapy so powerful it eliminated her pain permanently in just one month. But that was only the beginning of her incredible journey.

What started as personal desperation became a mission to help others access therapies that most people have never heard of.<br /><br />Edna reveals the shocking truth about why hyperbaric oxygen therapy isn't standard care after cancer treatment, despite being FDA-approved for radiation damage. She shares the exact protocols that transformed her health, how she built a thriving healing center with her son's ex-girlfriend as business partner, and why she believes this therapy could change the future of medicine.

Phil Whitebloom, a nationally respected sales coach with over 40 years of experience who led teams generating $1.5 billion in sales at Sony Electronics, reveals why most business owners completely misdiagnose their sales problems. Through his work with CEOs and entrepreneurs, Phil has discovered that when companies get 60 qualified leads and close zero deals, the issue isn't lead quality-it's something much more fixable. His insights challenge everything you think you know about the relationship between marketing and sales, and why even successful businesses hit plateaus they can't break through.<br /><br />In this conversation, Phil shares his tactical versus strategic success framework and introduces the concept of "high impact questions" that go beyond typical open-ended queries to uncover the real reasons behind customer decisions. You'll discover why most solopreneurs think they're "bad closers" when the actual problem lies elsewhere, how to get completely out of your own head during sales conversations, and the graduate-level technique for handling objections that most people never learn. Phil's approach isn't about being pushy or salesy-it's about becoming genuinely curious and focusing entirely on helping your prospect, which paradoxically leads to more sales than any aggressive closing technique ever could.<br /><br /><b></b><br /><b></b><b></b>Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Phil Whitebloom:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://beentherecs.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">beentherecs.com</a><br />Email: info@beentherecs.com<br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/philwhitebloom/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Phil Whitebloom</a><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/71281774</guid><pubDate>Tue, 14 Apr 2026 11:00:04 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/71281774/untitled_session_62_mixdown.mp3" length="75187354" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/260edf2f-5ba1-4877-8d67-e8c704bfa677/260edf2f-5ba1-4877-8d67-e8c704bfa677.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/260edf2f-5ba1-4877-8d67-e8c704bfa677/260edf2f-5ba1-4877-8d67-e8c704bfa677.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/260edf2f-5ba1-4877-8d67-e8c704bfa677/260edf2f-5ba1-4877-8d67-e8c704bfa677.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Olivia Atkin</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>What if the problem isn't your marketing, but something else entirely?

Phil's approach isn't about being pushy or salesy-it's about becoming genuinely curious and focusing entirely on helping your prospect, which paradoxically leads to more sales than any aggressive closing technique ever could.<br /><br /><b></b><br /><b></b><b></b>Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Phil Whitebloom:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://beentherecs.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">beentherecs.com</a><br />Email: info@beentherecs.com<br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/philwhitebloom/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Phil Whitebloom</a><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>3133</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>business,businesscoaching,businesscoachingdevelopment,coaching,entrepreneurs,entrepreneurship,leadership,marketing,objections,questions,revenue,sales,salesconversations,salesconversion,salesstrategy,salesstrategytraining,success</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/baddbb52f18d004525a9e2646232d267.jpg"/><itunes:episode>181</itunes:episode><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Ep. 180 He Chose Luge At 21 With No Experience And Not Knowing His Path Changed Everything with Olympic Athlete Ruben Gonzalez</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-180-he-chose-luge-at-21-with-no-experience-and-not-knowing-his-path-changed-everything-with-olympic-athlete-ruben-gonzalez--70983126</link><description><![CDATA[The coach laughed and told him to forget it.

Arliss Dudley-Cash discovered this truth the hard way after performing over 5,000 autopsies as a deputy coroner, burning out in a PhD program, and being diagnosed with a rare genetic condition that doctors said would give her only one year to live. Her journey from forensic pathologist to neuroscience researcher to soul-centered business consultant reveals how entrepreneurship becomes the ultimate mirror for every unhealed trauma we carry. Through her company Solutions LLC, Arliss helps driven professionals break free from the old model of success that demands you work yourself to death to prove your worth.<br /><br />In this conversation, Arliss shares her "work gentle, joy hard" philosophy and explains why curiosity is an entrepreneur's superpower for getting out of fear-based decision making.

You'll discover why asking yourself ridiculous questions can shift your brain from fear to possibility, and learn the specific apps and systems that can streamline your operations without sacrificing impact.

Jeff Harnois, founder of iBridge, discovered this shift transformed everything about his business approach and client relationships. After building a successful executive coaching practice that became referral-only, Jeff made a bold pivot that quadrupled his annual revenue while serving clients at an entirely different scale.

Jeff's methodology focuses on bridging mindset, behavior, and performance while delivering measurable business impact for Fortune 50 organizations and other enterprise clients.<br /><br /><b></b><br /><b></b>Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Jeff Harnois:</b><br />Website: <a href="http://www.ibridged.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">www.ibridged.com</a><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>3084</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>business,businesscoaching,businessgrowthstrategy,businesssuccesstips,clientretention,clientretentionstrategies,coaching,consulting,entrepenuership,entrepenuershipmindset,entrepreneurship,ibridge,jeffharnois,leadership,leadershipskills,oliviaatkin,scaleabusiness,scalingabusiness,transformation,valuedrivenleadership</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/baddbb52f18d004525a9e2646232d267.jpg"/><itunes:episode>178</itunes:episode><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Ep. 177 Stop Waiting For Sponsors: The 3 Real Ways Podcasts Monetize</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-177-stop-waiting-for-sponsors-the-3-real-ways-podcasts-monetize--68598554</link><description><![CDATA[What if everything you've been told about podcast monetization is backwards?

Matthew Person, founder of Town Square Advisors and creator of the Square Management System, reveals how most companies unknowingly let their staff determine company culture instead of intentionally designing it. Through his 40-point methodology, he's discovered that there's no such thing as bad culture or bad employees - only misalignment between people and organizations. Matthew shares the pivotal interview question that sparked his eight-year journey to solve organizational drift, and why his framework can predict cultural fit with startling accuracy.<br /><br />In this conversation, you'll discover the four sides that create organizational alignment and why most leaders neglect the instruction side while obsessing over ping pong tables and happy hours. Matthew explains how his principle of constrained independence helps executives balance employee autonomy with clear guardrails, and why some people need tight boxes while others thrive in wide squares. He also reveals the dangerous phenomenon of cultural drift - when high performers get away with behavior that contradicts company values - and how to maintain the constitution to stick to your systems even when it means losing revenue.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Matthew Person:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://www.townsquare-advisors.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">townsquare-advisors.com</a>  <br />Email: matt.person@townsquare-advisors.com<br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthewdperson/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">www.linkedin.com/in/matthewdperson</a><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/70555307</guid><pubDate>Tue, 10 Mar 2026 11:00:02 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/70555307/as_matt_person_1.mp3" length="45321404" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/b74d9df2-04b5-4937-bd93-33512f7272aa/b74d9df2-04b5-4937-bd93-33512f7272aa.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/b74d9df2-04b5-4937-bd93-33512f7272aa/b74d9df2-04b5-4937-bd93-33512f7272aa.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/b74d9df2-04b5-4937-bd93-33512f7272aa/b74d9df2-04b5-4937-bd93-33512f7272aa.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Olivia Atkin</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>What if you could know before accepting a job whether you'd thrive there or become another disgruntled employee?

You'll discover why he believes the pressure cooker of modern life can actually create diamonds, and the simple daily practices that keep him grounded when Hollywood's rejection cycle threatens to derail everything.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>3132</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>achievingsuccess,acting,actorjourney,creativity,discipline,hollywood,homelessness,mindset,mindsetshift,motivation,overcomingadversity,personalgrowth,redefiningsuccess,rejection,resilience,ryanrobbins,smallwins,success</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/baddbb52f18d004525a9e2646232d267.jpg"/><itunes:episode>175</itunes:episode><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Ep. 174 Supply Chain Certifications Transform More Than Your Career with Maryanne Ross</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-174-supply-chain-certifications-transform-more-than-your-career-with-maryanne-ross--69804183</link><description><![CDATA[What if the certification process itself transforms who you become, not just what you know? Maryanne Ross discovered this firsthand when a CPIM certification elevated her from forklift driver to Fortune 500 trainer, working with companies like ExxonMobil and Merck. With over 25 years in adult education and 18 years of supply chain experience, she's witnessed thousands of professionals struggle with the fear that certifications are just another box to check. Through her company Supply Chain Mavens, Maryanne has learned that the real power lies not in the credential itself, but in how the learning process reshapes your thinking and problem-solving abilities.<br /><br />In this conversation, she reveals why she tells her students to 'take off your company hat' during certification prep and embrace best practices instead. You'll discover how certifications create career stretch that benefits organizations even when employees leave, why most people need multiple attempts to pass ASCM exams (and why that's perfectly normal), and how continuous learning becomes your protection against technological disruption. Whether you're considering your first certification or helping others through the process, you'll walk away understanding how these credentials serve as powerful tools in an ever-evolving professional landscape.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Maryanne Ross:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://www.supplychainmavens.net/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">www.supplychainmavens.net</a><br />Email: maryanne@supplychainmavens.net<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/69804183</guid><pubDate>Tue, 24 Feb 2026 12:00:09 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/69804183/as_maryanne_ross.mp3" length="59998810" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/b754876b-573f-4cda-b006-96a569c07d5c/b754876b-573f-4cda-b006-96a569c07d5c.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/b754876b-573f-4cda-b006-96a569c07d5c/b754876b-573f-4cda-b006-96a569c07d5c.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/b754876b-573f-4cda-b006-96a569c07d5c/b754876b-573f-4cda-b006-96a569c07d5c.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Olivia Atkin</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>What if the certification process itself transforms who you become, not just what you know?

Austin Bonderer, who's secured over 700 U.S. patents, says it starts with three simple words you probably say every day. As a former U.S. patent examiner turned patent attorney, Austin has seen brilliant entrepreneurs destroy their chances at protection with one excited conversation at a family gathering or business conference. He reveals the shocking one-year deadline that most innovators don't know exists and why your natural instinct to share your breakthrough could be costing you everything.<br /><br />From the entrepreneur who lost patent rights after selling for just 18 months to the family recipe dispute that ended up in court, Austin shares real stories that will change how you think about protecting your ideas. He breaks down when patents make sense versus when trade secrets might be your secret weapon, and reveals his 'sword and shield' strategy that smart entrepreneurs use to dominate their market space.

Dorothy Rasco faced one of aerospace's most emotional transitions when she led the retirement of NASA's space shuttle program after the Columbia tragedy. As Chief Financial Officer at Johnson Space Center, she made a choice that would define her legacy: "These are my babies. I love them. I'm going to be with them to the end." Her journey from technical engineer to strategic leader reveals how the most difficult decisions often require both analytical thinking and deep emotional intelligence. Through Hurricane Katrina's devastation of the external tank facility and the complex logistics of moving shuttles to museums, Dorothy navigated challenges that went far beyond spreadsheets and budgets. Her story illuminates the delicate balance between honoring the past and embracing the future, showing how true leadership means finding common ground when competing priorities collide.

Rick Bistline, PhD, reveals why most nightlife security teams are approaching safety completely backwards, and how a simple 80/20 rule is transforming venues across the country. As a former police officer turned nightlife security consultant, Rick has seen firsthand how ego-driven responses and lack of proper training lead to tragic outcomes that destroy businesses and lives.

Rick Bistline, PhD, reveals why most nightlife security teams are approaching safety completely backwards, and how a simple 80/20 rule is transforming venues across the country. As a former police officer turned nightlife security consultant, Rick has seen firsthand how ego-driven responses and lack of proper training lead to tragic outcomes that destroy businesses and lives. His methodology bridges hospitality and security in ways that actually prevent incidents before they escalate, while creating better guest experiences that drive revenue.<br /><br />Rick shares the mindset shifts that separate successful security teams from liability nightmares, including why conflict resolution must start at the front door and how hiring the right disposition matters more than size or intimidation factor.

Through real examples and clinical insight, he explains how some people oscillate between elation and complete emotional collapse when their self-esteem isn't externally validated.

Actor George Stults was planning to become a Navy SEAL when Hollywood found him-and his reluctant journey to Seventh Heaven will completely change how you think about success. This isn't your typical actor's story of childhood dreams and drama classes. George was so shy he couldn't speak in front of 30 college classmates without sweating through his shirt, yet he ended up playing Kevin Kinkirk on one of television's most beloved family shows for years.

Actor George Stults was planning to become a Navy SEAL when Hollywood found him-and his reluctant journey to Seventh Heaven will completely change how you think about success. This isn't your typical actor's story of childhood dreams and drama classes. George was so shy he couldn't speak in front of 30 college classmates without sweating through his shirt, yet he ended up playing Kevin Kinkirk on one of television's most beloved family shows for years. His raw honesty about feeling like he "had no right" being in the industry, learning alongside child actors, and navigating devastating industry revelations will leave you questioning everything you think you know about making it in entertainment.<br /><br />George reveals the uncomfortable truth about staying authentic in an industry that rewards performance, why he still considers himself terrible at "playing the game," and how his biggest weakness became his greatest strength. You'll hear about the moment that changed his approach to relationships forever, why he believes listening is more powerful than talking, and the mindset shift that's kept him grounded through decades in Hollywood.

Zhanna Blazej discovered the answer when she was drowning in the endless cycle of content creation as a new mom and entrepreneur. Frustrated by AI that sounded robotic and content that took hours to produce with zero results, she developed something revolutionary: a system that transforms raw, unscripted voice memos into persuasive content that sounds exactly like you wrote it. Within one week of testing her framework, Zhanna generated 23 leads and multiple five figures in revenue from just six pieces of content.<br /><br />In this conversation, Zhanna reveals the psychology behind content that converts versus content that just inspires. She breaks down why most entrepreneurs are unknowingly sabotaging their own sales by hiding behind vague calls-to-action and speaking from their expertise instead of their audience's lived experience.

Louis L. Reed's journey from incarceration to becoming a sought-after criminal justice reform advocate reveals the power of owning your story rather than letting it own you. After serving nearly 14 years in federal prison, Louis discovered that freedom meant more than just crossing the gate-it meant learning to believe in himself again while navigating a system designed to keep him locked out of housing, employment, and basic financial services.

Louis L. Reed's journey from incarceration to becoming a sought-after criminal justice reform advocate reveals the power of owning your story rather than letting it own you. After serving nearly 14 years in federal prison, Louis discovered that freedom meant more than just crossing the gate-it meant learning to believe in himself again while navigating a system designed to keep him locked out of housing, employment, and basic financial services. His approach to advocacy isn't rooted in politics but in proximity, bringing lived experience to policy conversations that actually matter to people still behind bars.<br /><br />Louis shares the pivotal moment when he realized that if he didn't control his narrative, the system would, leading him to trade street credibility for self-worth and pick up books instead of conflicts. Through raw honesty about the lonely nights where hope felt like contraband and the challenge of rebuilding trust in himself, he demonstrates how your story becomes your superpower when you refuse to shrink to fit in. From getting his credit card rescinded due to his criminal history to building his own seat at tables where none existed, Louis reveals why everyone wants the moment but nobody wants the movement, and how proximity to problems creates the most powerful solutions for criminal justice reform.<br /><br /><b></b><br /><b></b>Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Louis L.

Matthew Cossolotto, known as the Podium Pro, discovered this truth through a heartfelt vow made to his dying mother. When she encouraged him to write a book he'd been putting off, Matthew made a deathbed promise that would completely reshape his career trajectory from corporate speechwriter to award-winning author and speaker. His story reveals why promises carry more emotional weight than goals and how that single commitment launched his entire personal empowerment empire.<br /><br />In this conversation, Matthew shares his revolutionary approach to public speaking through what he calls the "six-point checklist for powerful presentations" that spells out S.P.E.E.C.H. You'll discover why turning your New Year's resolutions into personal promises increases your follow-through rate, how to transform stage fright into stage delight using his "gentle art of mental joy jitsu," and the surprising reason why pausing during presentations makes audiences pay closer attention.

Amy Pechacek, founder and CEO of Alpstra Training Solutions, reveals how the most successful leaders don't just survive adversity-they strategically leverage it to connect deeper with their teams and drive unprecedented results. Through her work developing emotionally intelligent leaders across industries, Amy has discovered that vulnerability isn't weakness; it's the secret weapon that transforms good managers into transformational leaders.

Through his practice Feldmed, he's witnessed remarkable transformations by integrating Western, Eastern, functional, and regenerative medicine in ways that seem impossible until you see the results.

Alijah Wood discovered this financial strategy after two devastating ACL injuries ended his D1 football career at TCU, forcing him to find a new path to success. As the founder of A.D. Wood Consulting, he now helps college athletes build generational wealth using a little-known financial tool that functions like a supercharged bank account.

Olympic Gold Medalist David Verburg opens up about the rarely discussed "Olympic fog" that hit him after winning gold in the 4x400 relay, revealing how reaching the pinnacle left him questioning everything he thought he wanted.

Ryan Englin, founder of Core Matters, shares the eye-opening moment he realized his father's construction business wasn't failing because of marketing problems, but because of people problems. After watching his dad work relentlessly for 40 years without achieving the lifestyle he dreamed of, Ryan discovered that most blue collar businesses are stuck in an outdated mindset that treats workers as replaceable parts rather than human beings with goals and dreams.<br /><br />Ryan reveals why the suicide rate in construction is five times the national average and how COVID exposed that office jobs weren't treating people any better than the trades.

Ryan Englin, founder of Core Matters, shares the eye-opening moment he realized his father's construction business wasn't failing because of marketing problems, but because of people problems. After watching his dad work relentlessly for 40 years without achieving the lifestyle he dreamed of, Ryan discovered that most blue collar businesses are stuck in an outdated mindset that treats workers as replaceable parts rather than human beings with goals and dreams.<br /><br />Ryan reveals why the suicide rate in construction is five times the national average and how COVID exposed that office jobs weren't treating people any better than the trades. He breaks down the simple system that helps contractors attract, hire, and retain the right people by understanding what workers are truly sacrificing when they leave their families for 10 hours a day. From creating individual career paths to having vision conversations before hiring, Ryan shows how transparency and genuine investment in people's personal success transforms entire companies. You'll discover why 'nobody wants to work' really means 'nobody wants to work for you' and how to become the type of leader people actually want to follow.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Ryan Englin:</b><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryanenglin" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ryanenglin</a><br />YouTube: <a href="https://d.docs.live.net/d700852ad3560abb/Documents/Podcast/Guest%20Interview%20Introduction%20and%20Questions/Core%20Matters%20-%20YouTube" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Core Matters</a><br />Website: <a href="https://corematters.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">corematters.com</a><br />Email: ryan@corematters.com<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>2171</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>achievingsuccess,bluecollarbusiness,business,businessleadership,corematters,delegatetoelevate,employeeretention,entrepenuerlife,entrepenuersuccess,entrepreneurship,hiring,hiringstrategies,leadership,leadershipgrowth,management,oliviaatkinpodcast,ryanenglin,smallbusinesssuccess,successmindset,worklifebalance</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/baddbb52f18d004525a9e2646232d267.jpg"/><itunes:episode>147</itunes:episode><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Ep. 146 Achieving Lasting Serenity Over Violence One Mindful Minute At A Time with Judge Frank Szymanski</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-146-achieving-lasting-serenity-over-violence-one-mindful-minute-at-a-time-with-judge-frank-szymanski--67334636</link><description><![CDATA[What if the solution to America's gun violence epidemic isn't more laws, but a simple 60-second daily practice?

Dr. Carrie Kisker, president of Kisker Education Consulting and leader of the Center for the Study of Community Colleges, reveals how she built a groundbreaking career by choosing the road less traveled in higher education. After earning her PhD from UCLA, she made the bold decision to skip the traditional 25-year university path and create her own consulting practice focused on bridging research and practice in community college education. Her unconventional journey led her to become the first author of the seventh edition of 'The American Community College,' a foundational text read in graduate programs nationwide.<br /><br />Dr. Kisker shares the pivotal moment when her mentor told her that if she truly cared about access and equity, she had to study community colleges - not the elite institutions that get all the attention.

Dr. Carrie Kisker, president of Kisker Education Consulting and leader of the Center for the Study of Community Colleges, reveals how she built a groundbreaking career by choosing the road less traveled in higher education. After earning her PhD from UCLA, she made the bold decision to skip the traditional 25-year university path and create her own consulting practice focused on bridging research and practice in community college education. Her unconventional journey led her to become the first author of the seventh edition of 'The American Community College,' a foundational text read in graduate programs nationwide.<br /><br />Dr. Kisker shares the pivotal moment when her mentor told her that if she truly cared about access and equity, she had to study community colleges - not the elite institutions that get all the attention. She discusses her passionate mission to combat the harmful stereotypes surrounding community colleges and their students, including why she literally made a t-shirt that says 'Community College is College.' You'll discover practical strategies for eliminating bias in hiring practices, the power of moving community college resumes to the top of the pile instead of the bottom, and how storytelling can transform public perception.

Col. Oakland McCulloch thought he knew about leadership. After 23 years in the military and commissioning over 600 officers, this decorated leader discovered that the most powerful leadership tool isn't authority-it's asking 'why.'

Col. Oakland McCulloch thought he knew about leadership. After 23 years in the military and commissioning over 600 officers, this decorated leader discovered that the most powerful leadership tool isn't authority-it's asking 'why.' Oakland reveals the shocking difference between leaders who know their people and those who don't, sharing real stories of how personal connections saved missions and transformed organizations. From the platoon sergeant who taught him humility to the crisis moments where preparation met opportunity, you'll hear exactly why he believes 'the enemy always has a say' and how that mindset can revolutionize your approach to business challenges.

Richard Allen Jr. and Dr. David J Fletcher share the decade-long journey to get baseball legend Dick Allen into the Hall of Fame-a mission that became so much more than they ever imagined. From losing by a single vote twice to finally achieving justice in 2024, their story reveals the power of persistence when you know someone deserves recognition.

Richard opens up about learning things about his father he never knew, while Dr. Fletcher shares how this project evolved from fan admiration to deep friendship and historical justice.

Anthony Markey was meeting amazing people who would never be his clients, feeling frustrated that he couldn't add real value to their lives, when he discovered the power of making every conversation about them instead of him. Six months later, his I Know A Guy community proves that authentic interest beats being interesting every single time.

Anthony Markey was meeting amazing people who would never be his clients, feeling frustrated that he couldn't add real value to their lives, when he discovered the power of making every conversation about them instead of him. Six months later, his I Know A Guy community proves that authentic interest beats being interesting every single time.

John Marvin, President and CEO of Texas State Optical, reveals how seven years of monthly dinner meetings and deep listening led to one of the most remarkable business transformations in retail optical. His journey from external consultant to company owner demonstrates how genuine relationship-building creates opportunities that traditional business tactics never could.

Elizabeth Bennett McKinney knows this reality all too well. At just 12 years old, she found herself the target of a calculated smear campaign led by a 43-year-old woman within her church community-a woman her own mother trusted. The experience didn't just hurt; it fundamentally altered the trajectory of her life, leading to clinical depression, PTSD, and social anxiety that would follow her for years. Elizabeth's story reveals the uncomfortable truth about spiritual abuse and peer abuse within faith communities, showing how narcissistic behavior can infiltrate even the most sacred spaces. Her journey from victim to pioneer in addressing church hurt demonstrates that healing is possible, but only when we're willing to call abuse what it really is and understand who's truly pulling the strings behind these devastating dynamics. Through her work with Church Hurt in America, Elizabeth has become a catalyst for change, helping others recognize the red flags and reclaim their spiritual lives from those who would weaponize faith for personal gain.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Elizabeth Bennett McKinney:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://churchhurt.net/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://churchhurt.net/</a><br />Email: elizabethbennettmckinney@churchhurt.net<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/66259724</guid><pubDate>Tue, 27 May 2025 11:00:08 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/66259724/elizabeth_bennett_mckinney.mp3" length="52054841" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/37d214a5-1be8-40e0-a390-976d006e3ec7/37d214a5-1be8-40e0-a390-976d006e3ec7.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/37d214a5-1be8-40e0-a390-976d006e3ec7/37d214a5-1be8-40e0-a390-976d006e3ec7.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/37d214a5-1be8-40e0-a390-976d006e3ec7/37d214a5-1be8-40e0-a390-976d006e3ec7.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Olivia Atkin</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>What happens when the place meant to be your spiritual sanctuary becomes the source of your deepest trauma?

Elizabeth Bennett McKinney knows this reality all too well. At just 12 years old, she found herself the target of a calculated smear campaign led by a 43-year-old woman within her church community-a woman her own mother trusted. The experience didn't just hurt; it fundamentally altered the trajectory of her life, leading to clinical depression, PTSD, and social anxiety that would follow her for years. Elizabeth's story reveals the uncomfortable truth about spiritual abuse and peer abuse within faith communities, showing how narcissistic behavior can infiltrate even the most sacred spaces. Her journey from victim to pioneer in addressing church hurt demonstrates that healing is possible, but only when we're willing to call abuse what it really is and understand who's truly pulling the strings behind these devastating dynamics.

Music Producer Tony Michaelides was there when Bono made the 'worst decision' of his life, watching from the sidelines as the band's manager fled to Paris in fury and the other members refused to speak to their lead singer. But what happened next defied every expectation and changed music history forever.

Music Producer Tony Michaelides was there when Bono made the 'worst decision' of his life, watching from the sidelines as the band's manager fled to Paris in fury and the other members refused to speak to their lead singer. But what happened next defied every expectation and changed music history forever. With three decades of insider access to legends like David Bowie, The Police, and Bob Marley, Tony reveals the shocking truth about what really creates lasting success in any industry.<br /><br />This isn't just another music industry story-it's a masterclass in turning disasters into opportunities, why micromanaging kills creativity, and how the courage to risk everything often pays the biggest dividends.

Instead of running away, they hired him on the spot. Now, just months later, Quinn has built Juke Marketing into a thriving agency that's helping legacy businesses with decades of expertise compete against digitally-native startups. His unconventional approach challenges everything you think you know about building trust in the digital marketing space. While his college classmates were climbing corporate ladders, Quinn was quietly building something that would let him quit his finance job in just 90 days.

Instead of running away, they hired him on the spot. Now, just months later, Quinn has built Juke Marketing into a thriving agency that's helping legacy businesses with decades of expertise compete against digitally-native startups. His unconventional approach challenges everything you think you know about building trust in the digital marketing space. While his college classmates were climbing corporate ladders, Quinn was quietly building something that would let him quit his finance job in just 90 days. His professor's advice about careers being 'made after the fact' became the foundation for a business philosophy that prioritizes radical transparency over polished presentations. Quinn's mobile-first web design strategy is generating hot leads for traditional businesses who thought social media was their only digital option. The three parties he satisfies with every website build might surprise you, and his three-click rule could be costing you customers right now without you even knowing it.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Quinn Dallai:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://juke.marketing/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://juke.marketing/</a><br />Email: quinn@juke.marketing<br />Personal LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/qdallai/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Quinn Dallai</a><br />Company LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/juke-marketing/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Juke Marketing</a><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>2994</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>branding,businesstransparency,competitivemarket,customerservice,digitallandscape,digitalmarketing,entrepenuership,jukemarketing,localbusinesses,localseostrategies,marketing,measureablesuccess,professionalbranding,professionaldevelopment,professionalsuccess,quinndallai,seo,seostrategies,smallandmediumbusinessfounders,website</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/baddbb52f18d004525a9e2646232d267.jpg"/><itunes:episode>129</itunes:episode><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Ep. 128 'I Wasn't Nurtured, I Was in Survival Training': Combat Vet's Raw Truth with Eric Rush</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-128-i-wasn-t-nurtured-i-was-in-survival-training-combat-vet-s-raw-truth-with-eric-rush--65373179</link><description><![CDATA[How does a decorated combat veteran go from military service to a suicide attempt to building a thriving podcast network?

Melissa Rubin, a top real estate advisor at Compass, reveals how she turned that challenging client into someone who bought eight properties by speaking his language and defending his interests over market pressure. Her approach of putting clients first, even when it means walking away from deals, has made her the go-to advisor for Fortune 500 executives and celebrities navigating sensitive transactions like high-profile divorces and estate sales.

Melissa Rubin, a top real estate advisor at Compass, reveals how she turned that challenging client into someone who bought eight properties by speaking his language and defending his interests over market pressure. Her approach of putting clients first, even when it means walking away from deals, has made her the go-to advisor for Fortune 500 executives and celebrities navigating sensitive transactions like high-profile divorces and estate sales. Through her own contested divorce experience, Melissa discovered the power of empathy in real estate, leading her to specialize in helping people during their most vulnerable moments.

Coach Valorie Kondos Field's teams won seven NCAA championships, but not because she focused on winning - in fact, she did the exact opposite. She shares the devastating truth about why 95% of young athletes quit their sport in a single car ride, and it has nothing to do with losing games.

Coach Valorie Kondos Field's teams won seven NCAA championships, but not because she focused on winning - in fact, she did the exact opposite. She shares the devastating truth about why 95% of young athletes quit their sport in a single car ride, and it has nothing to do with losing games. During their final championship, with her team in last place and four athletes left to compete, she made a decision that defied every coaching instinct she had.<br /><br />What happened next broke NCAA records and proved that everything we think we know about high-performance culture is wrong. Valorie reveals the one word she banned from her vocabulary that most coaches use daily, why she practiced speeches in her bathroom mirror before speaking to 10,000 people, and the simple letter rearrangement that unlocks the secret to building championship-level relationships.

Dr. Tracey Milligan, one of the nation's leading epilepsy experts, reveals why most adult seizures look nothing like what you see in movies and how half of people having convulsions already experienced warning signs nobody recognized. She shares the shocking truth about flashing lights affecting only 3-5% of people with epilepsy, despite being the number one misconception on social media.

Dr. Tracey Milligan, one of the nation's leading epilepsy experts, reveals why most adult seizures look nothing like what you see in movies and how half of people having convulsions already experienced warning signs nobody recognized.

Former NFL Player Langston Moore shares the raw truth about his six-season journey through professional football, including being drafted by the Cincinnati Bengals in the sixth round and later playing for teams that went 0-16. His story reveals how expectations versus reality shaped his understanding of success in ways he never anticipated. Langston's perspective on success has evolved dramatically from his playing days - he now defines it as freedom and options rather than traditional markers of achievement.

John Graham, Executive Director of the Giraffe Heroes Project, shares the raw moment during the 1972 Easter Offensive when he realized his entire life had been built around selfish adventure-seeking rather than meaningful purpose.

That's exactly where Tony Jalan found himself before one pivotal evening changed everything. This six-time number one division sales manager was about to discover that his definition of success was completely wrong, and what happened next transformed not just his career, but his entire approach to leadership and life. The most shocking part? Once he redefined what success meant, the traditional achievements he'd been desperately chasing suddenly started pursuing him instead.<br /><br />Tony doesn't hold back as he reveals the uncomfortable truth about why most high achievers feel unfulfilled, the four mindsets that separate truly successful leaders from everyone else, and his controversial take on why you should be more motivated by your nightmares than your dreams. You'll hear the exact moment he realized comfort had become his enemy, why he tells clients that human beings are the only creatures that voluntarily limit their own growth, and the surprisingly simple system he uses to help leaders break through their self-imposed barriers.

Lisa Snow cracked the code after witnessing the devastating toll of 14-hour workdays in corporate America and discovering what really keeps people committed to their wellness goals. Spoiler alert: it's not what fitness experts think it should be. When Lisa surveyed clients who successfully maintained their fitness routines through the pandemic, every single response revealed the same unexpected truth that's reshaping how she approaches remote wellness.

Lisa Snow cracked the code after witnessing the devastating toll of 14-hour workdays in corporate America and discovering what really keeps people committed to their wellness goals. Spoiler alert: it's not what fitness experts think it should be. When Lisa surveyed clients who successfully maintained their fitness routines through the pandemic, every single response revealed the same unexpected truth that's reshaping how she approaches remote wellness. She's now helping corporations reduce turnover and friends maintain lifelong bonds through a surprisingly simple strategy that has nothing to do with traditional gym culture.<br /><br />From the attorney in her fifties who finally stopped worrying about designer workout clothes to business owners reconnecting teams they haven't seen in years, Lisa shares the psychological shifts that happen when people exercise together virtually.

Mark Wigginton discovered this game-changing approach after 40 years in coaching and consulting, and it transformed how he helps executives break through surface-level thinking. His journey from working night shifts at a psych ward to becoming a premier business coach reveals the profound difference between asking questions that focus on problems versus those that drive results. Mark shares how one simple two-word question can take any conversation seven levels deeper, moving people past their rehearsed answers to uncover the insights that actually matter.<br /><br />This conversation explores the art of forward-focused questioning and why understanding that "there's nothing more important to your customer than their customer" changes everything about how we navigate professional relationships. Mark's transformation from someone who had 12-20 jobs in 15 years to staying in one role for 15 years straight happened because he learned to adapt to changing realities rather than fighting them.

Gary Kleinman noticed elite gamers were suffering from severe dehydration symptoms because they couldn't take bathroom breaks during competitions, and this sparked an impossible mission: deliver electrolytes without water.

Erika Andresen shares how losing $59,450 in potential business became a marker of success, not failure. Her unique journey from defending banks during the 2008 financial crisis to advising generals on NATO operations reveals why traditional business thinking fails when crisis hits. Through her experience as a U.S. Army JAG Corps major and founder of Erika as a Service, she exposes the dangerous optimism bias that leaves businesses vulnerable when disaster strikes.<br /><br />Erika's approach to business continuity goes far beyond typical disaster planning - it's about creating resilient systems that turn potential failures into stepping stones for growth. She reveals why small businesses can't afford to wait until they're bigger to implement continuity plans, and how the military's mission-critical mindset translates into bulletproof business strategies. From the psychology behind why people think 'it won't happen to me' to the Waffle House strategy that even FEMA uses as a disaster indicator, this conversation will shift how you view risk, preparedness, and what it really means to build a business that thrives under pressure.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Erika Andresen:</b><br />Website: <a href="http://www.eaasc.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">eaasc.com</a><br />Email: info@eaasc.com<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/62969918</guid><pubDate>Tue, 26 Nov 2024 12:00:08 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/62969918/as_erika_andresen.mp3" length="82740986" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/300944f8-98b3-4ca3-bdd0-9d671520d526/300944f8-98b3-4ca3-bdd0-9d671520d526.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/300944f8-98b3-4ca3-bdd0-9d671520d526/300944f8-98b3-4ca3-bdd0-9d671520d526.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/300944f8-98b3-4ca3-bdd0-9d671520d526/300944f8-98b3-4ca3-bdd0-9d671520d526.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Olivia Atkin</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>What happens when a corporate attorney trades her law firm for military service and discovers her true calling in disaster management?

From the psychology behind why people think 'it won't happen to me' to the Waffle House strategy that even FEMA uses as a disaster indicator, this conversation will shift how you view risk, preparedness, and what it really means to build a business that thrives under pressure.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Erika Andresen:</b><br />Website: <a href="http://www.eaasc.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">eaasc.com</a><br />Email: info@eaasc.com<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>3102</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>army,armyjagcorps,businessinunpredictabletimes,businessoperations,businessplanning,businessresilience,businessresilienceexpert,businesssuccess,continuity,criticaloperations,eaas,emergencymanagement,erikaandresen,erikaasaservice,military,nato,professionalsuccess,resilience,risk,veteran</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/baddbb52f18d004525a9e2646232d267.jpg"/><itunes:episode>109</itunes:episode><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Ep. 108 Real Estate Success Through Content Creation And Authentic Storytelling with Chastin Miles</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-108-real-estate-success-through-content-creation-and-authentic-storytelling-with-chastin-miles--62760828</link><description><![CDATA[The electricity was off.

David Steele, co-founder and CEO of One Wealth Advisors, reveals how he grew from washing dishes as a teenager to managing $1 billion in assets without doing any marketing for 15 years. His journey from being a struggling stockbroker to creating a wealth management empire happened through one counterintuitive decision: taking a 75% pay cut to do work that actually mattered.

Dr. Latame Phillips discovered this staggering reality in Dallas and decided to do something unprecedented about it. From growing up food insecure in San Diego to serving in combat zones in Iraq, Latame's journey led him to create a revolutionary approach that goes far beyond just feeding hungry children. His Hunger Busters program now provides nearly 3,500 dinners daily, but that's just the beginning of his groundbreaking work.<br /><br />Through his innovative HB Group project, Latame is tackling the root causes of generational poverty by paying parents' bills while they attend school for nine months, helping them gain skills that increase their income by an average of $45,000 annually. He calls it financial empowerment, not financial literacy, because these families don't lack intelligence-they lack opportunities.

Susan Pence, an assistant principal with 20 years of teaching experience, reveals the hidden messages behind classroom disruptions and why traditional approaches to student discipline are missing the mark entirely. Through her unique perspective working with students from elementary through high school, Susan shares how understanding behavior as communication transforms not just individual student outcomes, but entire school communities. Her insights challenge everything we think we know about education, from standardized testing to special education services, offering a refreshingly honest look at what's really happening in our schools today.<br /><br />Susan's approach to building authentic relationships with students has created lasting impact - including a former student who flew from Vegas just to visit her years later, calling Susan her 'safe place in school.' In this conversation, you'll discover practical strategies for reading between the lines of student behavior, why equity matters more than equality in education, and how asking one simple question can change the entire dynamic of any challenging conversation.

Eric Dillman, founder of Eric Dillman Designs and host of Pro Series Podcast, shares how he transformed early career challenges into multiple thriving business streams.

Arielle Leavitt was drowning in red numbers when she took over her father's struggling practice after his stroke. The bank account was empty, the bills were piling up, and she was writing checks with anger and resentment. Then she tried something that seemed almost too simple to work: saying thank you every time she paid a bill. The results were so dramatic, she couldn't believe the shift in both her cash flow and her entire business trajectory.<br /><br />But Arielle's story doesn't stop at business turnaround.

Band Chicago Professional Percussionist Ray Yslas shares the emotional moment he went from childhood superfan to official band member, revealing the raw truth about what it really takes to perform at the highest level. His journey from blocking his family's door as a nine-year-old desperate to see Chicago live to receiving that life-changing call in 2018 proves that sometimes the universe has bigger plans than we can imagine. Ray opens up about the reality behind working with legends like Prince, Stevie Nicks, and Paul Stanley, including the brutal feedback that shaped his approach and the moments when ego nearly derailed everything. He reveals why success isn't about the accolades others see, but about waking up excited to do what you love, and how staying humble in an industry where you're always replaceable becomes your greatest strength. Through candid stories of last-minute Emmy performances, direct calls from rock legends, and the harsh lessons learned in high-pressure rehearsals, Ray demonstrates that achieving success means adapting quickly, checking your ego constantly, and never forgetting that your job is to make people smile for those precious two hours.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/60929559</guid><pubDate>Tue, 06 Aug 2024 11:00:04 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/60929559/ray_yslas_long.mp3" length="80536043" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/dfab4c21-9a7c-45d9-b69e-2f6efddd4dda/dfab4c21-9a7c-45d9-b69e-2f6efddd4dda.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/dfab4c21-9a7c-45d9-b69e-2f6efddd4dda/dfab4c21-9a7c-45d9-b69e-2f6efddd4dda.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/starship/dfab4c21-9a7c-45d9-b69e-2f6efddd4dda/dfab4c21-9a7c-45d9-b69e-2f6efddd4dda.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Olivia Atkin</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>What happens when the band you grew up obsessing over calls and asks you to join them?

Milo Shapiro, founder of Improv Ventures and Public Dynamics, reveals how improv principles can transform anyone from a nervous speaker into someone who commands attention. His journey from IT professional to sought-after speaking coach began with a single improv show that left him thinking "I'm supposed to be doing that." Now, after 24 years of teaching professionals to find their voice, Milo shares the unexpected ways improv skills translate directly into business success and authentic leadership.<br /><br />Discover Milo's "Big Game" exercise that turns mundane topics like carrots into passionate 30-second speeches, and learn why the seven elements of vocal variety matter more than just changing your pitch. From helping a Chinese IT professional shine through gibberish exercises to turning down clients who weren't the right fit, Milo demonstrates how authentic communication creates deeper connections.

Scott Keyser, career transition coach and owner of The Entrepreneur's Source, shares why success without fulfillment is the ultimate failure and reveals the hidden opportunity cost of staying stuck in corporate America. Through his unique approach as a career ally rather than just another recruiter, Scott helps clients navigate the uncomfortable conversations that lead to breakthrough moments. He walks us through real client stories, including the spouse who demanded references before trusting the process and the 26-year-old who transformed his dream of buying land for underprivileged kids into a thriving handyman business. Scott explains why fear is often just false evidence appearing real and how corporate America's expiration date affects every professional today.

Former Professional Hockey Player Taylor Cook was just two weeks away from signing a three-year deal with Kazakhstan when they pulled the offer and gave it to someone else.

Former NFL Player Jonathan Alston earned four game balls as a practice squad player, became a father at 19, and built a foundation that's changing communities across the country. His journey from the Washington Redskins practice squad to co-founding the Beyond Now Foundation reveals why playing your position matters more than playing for glory. Jonathan's story challenges everything you think you know about success, showing how being selfless, building genuine relationships, and leading with love creates impact that extends far beyond any stadium. From working night shifts at McCall's Trucking to inspiring hope in marginalized students, his path demonstrates that your current circumstances don't define your future potential.

Justine Chartier went from having migraines three times a week to being completely pain-free for over a year, and her method challenges everything traditional medicine teaches about chronic pain. The breakthrough came when she stopped treating symptoms and started addressing what her body was actually trying to tell her through the pain. Her story reveals why emotional trauma can manifest as physical symptoms, how healthcare professionals often miss the bigger picture, and the exact process she used to eliminate migraines that had controlled her life since age 15.<br /><br />What makes Justine's approach revolutionary is her unique position as both a medical insider and someone who lived the patient experience of being dismissed and misunderstood.

Actor Jocko Sims and Dr. Nia Mitchell reveal the shocking reality behind a statistic that could save thousands of lives: only 5.7% of physicians in America are Black, while Black patients face dramatically higher mortality rates that proper representation could prevent. Their groundbreaking collaboration emerged from Dr. Mitchell's bold move to email multiple actors, with Jocko being the only one who responded to her mission of raising funds for the Charles J. Blackwood Endowed Memorial Scholarship Fund. Together, they're working to close a $500,000 gap by June 30th that will provide full tuition scholarships for Black medical students at the University of Colorado in perpetuity.<br /><br />From Jocko's journey from pre-med to playing doctors on The Resident and New Amsterdam, to his deep involvement with military caregivers through the Elizabeth Dole Foundation, this conversation explores how representation saves lives in ways most people never consider. Dr. Mitchell shares the eye-opening moment at a diversity scholarship ceremony that sparked her $4 million fundraising mission, while Jocko explains how his TV roles connected him to real communities he now serves. You'll discover why Black newborns are three times more likely to survive with Black doctors, how PTSD affects entire families beyond just veterans, and the practical steps anyone can take to support this life-changing initiative that honors the legacy of Charles J. Blackwood, the first Black graduate of CU Medical School in 1947.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Actor Jocko Sims and Dr. Nia Mitchell's Community Outreach Websites:</b><br />More Black Doctors Website: <a href="https://www.moreblackdoctors.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.moreblackdoctors.org/</a><br />Charles J.

Jake Horne, Harvard graduate and founder of The Student Compass, shares why even Ivy League students are struggling more than ever - and why taking a gap year might be the smartest decision you never considered. After leaving Harvard for six years to hitchhike across continents, Jake discovered something profound: the skills that matter most in today's world aren't taught in classrooms. From building genuine connections without smartphones to developing the critical thinking abilities that technology is eroding, Jake reveals how stepping away from the traditional academic track can transform you from transactional to transformative. His approach challenges everything we've been told about success, showing why the students who pause often end up thriving while those who rush through degrees find themselves lost, anxious, and unprepared for real-world challenges.<br /><br />You'll discover why reflection and real-world experience trump classroom theory, how to break free from the dopamine-driven distractions that are rewiring our brains, and what it really takes to develop the adaptability skills that will matter as careers become increasingly fluid.

Jake's insights will shift how you think about education, growth, and what it means to truly prepare for an uncertain future.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Jake Horne:</b><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jake-horne-6a020b30/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jake Horne </a><br />Email: jakehorne8216@gmail.com<br />Website: <a href="https://www.thestudentcompass.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">www.thestudentcompass.com</a><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>3310</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>achieving,careerdevelopment,college,education,exploration,gapyear,growth,harvard,mentorship,personaldevelopment,secondaryschool,selfexploration,student,studentcompass,studentjourney,students,success</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/baddbb52f18d004525a9e2646232d267.jpg"/><itunes:episode>76</itunes:episode><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Ep. 75 Achieving Excellence: Where Preparation Meets Opportunity with World Series Champion Coach Trent Clark</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-75-achieving-excellence-where-preparation-meets-opportunity-with-world-series-champion-coach-trent-clark--59223137</link><description><![CDATA[What happens when everyone tells you "you're not enough" but you refuse to listen? World Series Champion Coach Trent Clark was that kid who heard crushing words from teachers, coaches, and adults who were supposed to encourage him. Yet he went on to earn three championship rings in professional baseball and now coaches Fortune 500 leaders.

Craig Decker, managing director at Raymond James, reveals why successful families focus on the 100-year wealth plan rather than just retirement savings. After three decades in wealth management and working alongside professional athletes, Craig has discovered that your money can only go to three places when you die, and you get to pick two. His approach to multi-generational wealth isn't just about accumulating assets-it's about passing down the values that keep families connected across generations.<br /><br />Craig shares the powerful exercise he gives every client family: creating a family mission statement that defines what it truly means to carry their name. From helping pro athletes navigate sudden wealth to guiding business owners through complex exit strategies, he's learned that transparency with children about finances creates stronger family foundations. You'll discover why the third generation typically changes direction, how to measure success both professionally and personally, and the homework assignment that could transform how your family approaches wealth for the next century.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Craig Decker:</b><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/deckerglobalw1/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Craig Decker</a><br />Website: <a href="https://www.alexbrown.com/deckerglobalwealth" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">DeckerGlobalWealth.com</a><br />Phone: 410-525-6208<br /><br /><br /><br />Disclaimer:<br />Raymond James &amp; Associates, Inc., member New York Stock Exchange/SIPC.

You'll discover why the third generation typically changes direction, how to measure success both professionally and personally, and the homework assignment that could transform how your family approaches wealth for the next century.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Craig Decker:</b><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/deckerglobalw1/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Craig Decker</a><br />Website: <a href="https://www.alexbrown.com/deckerglobalwealth" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">DeckerGlobalWealth.com</a><br />Phone: 410-525-6208<br /><br /><br /><br />Disclaimer:<br />Raymond James &amp; Associates, Inc., member New York Stock Exchange/SIPC.

Brett Portera is creating Crest Surf Club, Long Island's first wave pool facility, turning a childhood conversation into a revolutionary business model. Growing up in an entrepreneurial family where surfing dreams met business reality, Brett discovered that the biggest challenge wasn't the technology or the location-it was learning to tune out the noise from people who didn't share his vision.

Dan Capello, founder of Deliberate Evolution and former chef of three decades, reveals why burnout isn't the enemy we think it is-it's actually a symptom pointing to something much deeper. After hitting 300 pounds and not recognizing himself in photos, Dan made a radical decision that changed everything: he trained for and completed a Spartan race, losing 70 pounds in the process. But the real transformation happened when he discovered the difference between who he was and what he did for work. Dan shares his raw journey through sexual trauma, bullying, and the coping mechanisms that nearly destroyed him, explaining how separating your identity from your job title becomes the foundation for both personal and professional success. His approach to finding balance isn't about choosing between career and family-it's about understanding that your first job is at home, and your second job is your career, not the other way around.<br /><br />In this conversation, you'll discover why being present is the most valuable gift you can offer anyone, how self-awareness becomes the key to making deliberate decisions instead of fear-based ones, and why admitting you have problems is the only way to actually solve them. Dan's vulnerable storytelling reveals how childhood trauma shows up as perfectionism, people-pleasing, and anger in our adult lives, and why addressing these root causes is essential for authentic leadership. You'll walk away with a completely new perspective on what it means to lead yourself first, why the loudest person in the room often has the most fragile ego, and how true success comes from the intersection of professional achievement and personal fulfillment.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Dan Capello:</b><br />Linkedin: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/dancapello/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dan Capello</a><br />Website: <a href="https://www.dancapello.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">www.dancapello.com</a><br />Email: dan@dancapello.com<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/58744859</guid><pubDate>Tue, 20 Feb 2024 12:00:02 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/58744859/as_dan_capello.mp3" length="70281205" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/56f47f90-7262-4af9-9a90-3da83a590dcc/56f47f90-7262-4af9-9a90-3da83a590dcc.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/56f47f90-7262-4af9-9a90-3da83a590dcc/56f47f90-7262-4af9-9a90-3da83a590dcc.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/56f47f90-7262-4af9-9a90-3da83a590dcc/56f47f90-7262-4af9-9a90-3da83a590dcc.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Olivia Atkin</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>What if everything you've been told about burnout is wrong?

Toni Gingerelli watched her mom's health deteriorate as she ran home during lunch breaks to check on her grandmother, and that personal breaking point led her to uncover a staggering truth about 53 million Americans. As Associate Director of Policy and Advocacy for the National Alliance for Caregiving, she's now fighting a battle most people don't even know exists.

Luke Hessler, co-founder and CEO of Ace Branding, shares the raw story of how three minor in possession charges and a night in the drunk tank at 19 became the turning point that launched his digital empire.

Through candid stories about losing friends, sacrificing relationships, and the six months of complete failure that preceded his breakthrough, Luke demonstrates why the most successful people aren't afraid to be disliked in the short term for their long-term vision.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Luke Hessler:</b><br />Linkedin: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/luke-hessler-9759ab138/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Luke Hessler</a> <br />website: <a href="https://acebranding.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://acebranding.com/</a> <br />email: luke@acebranding.com<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>3325</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>branding,business,entrepreneurship,failure,leadership,mindset,servant,success,transformation</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/baddbb52f18d004525a9e2646232d267.jpg"/><itunes:episode>64</itunes:episode><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Ep. 63 'You and I vs The Problem' The Argument Trick That Saves Relationships with Cameron Schwartz</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-63-you-and-i-vs-the-problem-the-argument-trick-that-saves-relationships-with-cameron-schwartz--58235075</link><description><![CDATA[What if the secret to lasting change isn't about perfection, but about embracing the right kind of discomfort? Cameron Schwartz, founder of The Confidence Coach, reveals why he helps clients shift from emotional thinking to logical problem-solving in their most challenging moments. Through his work with men seeking confidence in dating, fitness, and relationships, Cameron has discovered that meaningful transformation happens when we stop fighting against our partners and start fighting alongside them. His unique approach combines empathy with accountability, helping people recognize that being happy today doesn't mean settling for where you are.<br /><br />Cameron shares the powerful reframe that saved his best friend's weight loss journey during the holidays - viewing progress like a stock chart with natural ups and downs rather than demanding linear perfection. You'll discover why vulnerability creates deeper connections than surface-level conversations, how fitness becomes a training ground for relationship patience, and the crucial difference between being content versus being truly happy.

But here's the twist: he never set out to be a producer at all.

Natasha Nurse, D&amp;I specialist, HR professional, and co-host of the podcast Woke and Free, shares her powerful journey from veterinary school dropout to content creator, revealing why she wished she had embraced her creative side decades earlier. Her story illuminates the hidden cost of following conservative career paths when your soul is calling you toward something completely different. Through candid conversation, Natasha explores how immigrant families often create binary views of success that can stifle natural talents, and why she's now course-correcting to ensure her two-year-old son doesn't face the same creative suppression.<br /><br />This conversation goes deep into the complexities of showing up authentically in a world that wants to box you first and humanize you second. Natasha reveals her formula for success that includes impact, education, empathy, entertainment, reflection, and legacy, while discussing the unique challenges of co-hosting a podcast with her husband of 10 years. You'll discover why uncomfortable conversations are essential for growth, how to navigate disagreement in relationships while maintaining respect, and why diversity and inclusion work must be woven into everything we do rather than treated as a separate initiative.

Robert Heller's journey from accounting graduate to gaming industry titan reveals the unexpected paths that lead to extraordinary success. As founder and CEO of Spectrum Gaming Capital, Robert has spent over 30 years navigating an industry that transformed from suspicious mafia connections to a trillion-dollar global business spanning 45 states.

He reveals why accounting became his secret weapon on Wall Street, how the gaming industry outgrew organized crime through institutional investment, and why tenacity trumps talent every time. From his unique philosophy that 'if you can't write it, you don't know what it is' to his innovative SGCTechX platform that's revolutionizing how gaming companies raise capital, Robert demonstrates how staying curious and constantly pivoting keeps both your career and your mind sharp.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Robert Heller:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://www.spectrumgamingcapital.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">spectrumgamingcapital.com</a> <br />Linkedin: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/roheller/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Robert Heller</a><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/57899550</guid><pubDate>Tue, 19 Dec 2023 12:00:03 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/57899550/as_robert_heller_long.mp3" length="60355510" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/3ee7a609-418e-4089-9dbe-9db621aad6a3/3ee7a609-418e-4089-9dbe-9db621aad6a3.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/3ee7a609-418e-4089-9dbe-9db621aad6a3/3ee7a609-418e-4089-9dbe-9db621aad6a3.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/3ee7a609-418e-4089-9dbe-9db621aad6a3/3ee7a609-418e-4089-9dbe-9db621aad6a3.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Olivia Atkin</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>What happens when a Wall Street financier gets accidentally dubbed the 'hotel expert' and ends up building a $3 billion resort empire?

Kevin Jordan, founder and CEO of Kevin Jordan Coach, discovered the answer when his wife suggested he abandon his methodical transition plan and dive straight into entrepreneurship. As an executive leadership coach and strategic advisor, Kevin had spent a decade building the perfect off-ramp from his corporate career at Kaiser Permanente, only to find himself launched into solo entrepreneurship much sooner than expected. His journey reveals how the most successful transitions often happen when we're willing to embrace the unexpected and trust the process even when we don't have all the answers.<br /><br />Kevin's approach to success centers around what he calls 'consonance' - the sense of frictionless belonging that comes when your work aligns with your deeper purpose. Through candid conversations about the challenges of solo entrepreneurship, from managing the loneliness of working alone to navigating the delicate balance between loving your work and avoiding burnout, Kevin shares practical insights on building meaningful professional relationships and creating sustainable business growth. His emphasis on informational interviews, community building, and the courage to ask questions others are thinking but afraid to voice offers a roadmap for anyone navigating career transitions or entrepreneurial ventures.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Kevin Jordan:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://www.kevinjordan.coach/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">kevinjordan.coach</a> <br />Email: Kevin@kevinjordan.coach<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/57899548</guid><pubDate>Tue, 12 Dec 2023 12:00:03 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/57899548/as_kevin_jordan_long.mp3" length="60480271" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/9d52d9be-c209-41a8-954d-3318b9f1d5b0/9d52d9be-c209-41a8-954d-3318b9f1d5b0.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/9d52d9be-c209-41a8-954d-3318b9f1d5b0/9d52d9be-c209-41a8-954d-3318b9f1d5b0.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/9d52d9be-c209-41a8-954d-3318b9f1d5b0/9d52d9be-c209-41a8-954d-3318b9f1d5b0.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Olivia Atkin</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>What happens when life accelerates your carefully crafted timeline by seven years?

Former Pro Boxer Ed Latimore's answer led to one of the most remarkable transformations you'll hear. From heavy drinking during his amateur boxing days to 10 years sober, from struggling with basic math to earning a physics degree, from financial instability to building a successful writing career-all while fighting professionally.

Dupe Aleru, founder of Davi Creative, shares the raw truth about her journey from motivational speaking to Christian content creation. When COVID canceled her 2020 speaking engagements, she heard a clear message to create content online, leading to an explosive growth from zero to 100,000 TikTok followers in just one month.

Former CIA Spy Peter Warmka spent 23 years as a case officer, mastering the art of human connection and intelligence gathering in foreign countries.

Peter shares the unsettling reality that most people are walking targets, unknowingly broadcasting their vulnerabilities through social media profiles that serve as detailed reconnaissance reports for modern threat actors.<br /><br />In this eye-opening conversation, Peter breaks down the methodology behind social engineering attacks, from the initial intelligence gathering phase using LinkedIn searches to the sophisticated psychological manipulation techniques that make even security-trained employees click malicious links.

She shares how she literally talks to her inner child, telling her 'thank you for helping me survive, but I'm 56 now and I can handle this.'

The next day, standing at the podium, words literally jumped around on the page as she read - a wake-up call that sleep isn't optional, it's the foundation of everything else.

Todd Blyleven, son of Hall of Fame pitcher Bert Blyleven, discovered the answer during the Las Vegas mass shooting when he spent eight hours running back into gunfire to save strangers. After growing up in Major League clubhouses and playing professional baseball himself, Todd thought he understood success through stats and performance.

Lina Taylor's journey from communist Bulgaria to the Olympic Games to founding Climate Executive Coaching reveals how our definition of success must evolve as we do. After achieving her childhood dream of competing in two Olympics, Lina found herself asking a deeper question during COVID lockdown: if climate and sustainability topped her values list, why wasn't she doing more about it? Her honest self-assessment led to a complete career pivot that now helps executives at Amazon, Google, and Pfizer accelerate their climate initiatives.<br /><br />This conversation dives into the art of using obstacles as stepping stones rather than roadblocks.

Lina Taylor's journey from communist Bulgaria to the Olympic Games to founding Climate Executive Coaching reveals how our definition of success must evolve as we do. After achieving her childhood dream of competing in two Olympics, Lina found herself asking a deeper question during COVID lockdown: if climate and sustainability topped her values list, why wasn't she doing more about it? Her honest self-assessment led to a complete career pivot that now helps executives at Amazon, Google, and Pfizer accelerate their climate initiatives.<br /><br />This conversation dives into the art of using obstacles as stepping stones rather than roadblocks. Lina shares how sleeping on streets while training taught her that resilience isn't about controlling outcomes, but about accepting what's real and taking responsibility for what's next. You'll discover why aligning your stated priorities with your actual actions creates the foundation for meaningful impact, and how thinking seven generations ahead can transform both business decisions and personal choices.

Former Real Housewives Star Kara Alloway discovered this shocking truth when she requested her psychological assessment after filming wrapped.

Drawing from Dr. Phyllis Chesler's research, she explores how women are taught from age eight to handle conflict through gossip and shunning rather than direct communication. Her debut novel "Most Hated" transforms this painful experience into a tool for encouraging women to celebrate their differences and speak their truth, while her current work as a reality TV producer focuses on building trust with participants rather than exploiting them.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/56326782</guid><pubDate>Tue, 01 Aug 2023 09:00:03 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/56326782/2326as_kara_allowaylong.mp3" length="77626420" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/834e1138-8475-4811-a915-2b7e5312b14d/834e1138-8475-4811-a915-2b7e5312b14d.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/834e1138-8475-4811-a915-2b7e5312b14d/834e1138-8475-4811-a915-2b7e5312b14d.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Olivia Atkin</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>What if being emotionally intelligent actually makes you the perfect reality TV villain?

Isabella Bedoya never intended to start a business when she swapped olive oil for Greek yogurt in her brother's pesto sauce, but that creative moment in her mom's kitchen sparked a journey from frustrated job seeker to AI-powered marketing strategist and founder of FameHackers. Within days of posting about her healthy pasta creation in a local Facebook group, Isabella had generated $125 in pre-orders, and by the end of that first week, she'd made $2,500 by simply saying yes to every opportunity that came her way.<br /><br />In this conversation, Isabella reveals the mindset shift that transformed her from someone who felt stuck between being overqualified and underqualified for traditional jobs into a successful entrepreneur who helps creators build authentic personal brands. She shares her philosophy that "you can't fail unless you quit" and demonstrates how treating every setback as a test rather than a failure has allowed her to stay ahead of rapidly changing social media trends. You'll discover why leading with value instead of sales pitches creates lasting community connections, and how Isabella uses AI tools like ChatGPT not to replace her creativity, but to free up mental space for higher-level strategic thinking that has helped her content reach over one million impressions.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Isabella Bedoya:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://thefamehackers.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">thefamehackers.com</a><br />Email: thefamehackers@gmail.com<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/56203952</guid><pubDate>Tue, 25 Jul 2023 09:00:03 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/56203952/as_isabella_bedoya.mp3" length="37779982" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/3c16cb40-6f40-468e-a795-79a3d19e91d5/3c16cb40-6f40-468e-a795-79a3d19e91d5.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/3c16cb40-6f40-468e-a795-79a3d19e91d5/3c16cb40-6f40-468e-a795-79a3d19e91d5.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/3c16cb40-6f40-468e-a795-79a3d19e91d5/3c16cb40-6f40-468e-a795-79a3d19e91d5.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>Olivia Atkin</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>What if one simple dinner experiment could completely change your career trajectory?

Cris Ross-Francis, founder of Up Next Sports Consulting and Life Beyond the Rim nonprofit, reveals why most student-athletes are completely unprepared for life after sports and how the right brand strategy can change everything. Through her own journey from sociology major to sports marketing expert, Cris shares the uncomfortable truth about why focusing solely on NIL deals and game performance leaves athletes vulnerable when their playing days end. She breaks down how champions like LSU's Angel Reese and Flau'jae Johnson built million-dollar brands by planning before their championship moment, not after. You'll discover why asking 'what's your passion outside of sports?' is the most important conversation coaches and parents aren't having with young athletes.

Brandon Puffer went from pitching for the Houston Astros, San Diego Padres, and San Francisco Giants to serving four years in prison after one night changed everything. But here's what makes his story remarkable: he discovered true peace and joy in the depths of that darkness, not after he got out. Brandon opens up about the childhood traumas he spent years numbing, the compromises that seemed small until they weren't, and how sexual assault shaped patterns he didn't recognize until it was almost too late.

Brandon Puffer went from pitching for the Houston Astros, San Diego Padres, and San Francisco Giants to serving four years in prison after one night changed everything. But here's what makes his story remarkable: he discovered true peace and joy in the depths of that darkness, not after he got out. Brandon opens up about the childhood traumas he spent years numbing, the compromises that seemed small until they weren't, and how sexual assault shaped patterns he didn't recognize until it was almost too late. His journey from professional athlete to convicted felon to successful entrepreneur and mentor reveals how humility, accountability, and explaining the 'why' behind our actions can transform not just our own lives, but the lives we're called to impact.<br /><br />Today, Brandon co-founded GPS Texas Baseball, where he teaches young men that character matters as much as talent, and that success isn't just about what happens on the field.

Misty Buck, mental health coach to Pro Football Hall of Fame athletes, reveals how being labeled the 'sensitive one' and 'drama queen' in sports culture nearly cost her everything before becoming the foundation of her life's work.

That moment of feeling incredible in well-fitted clothing would eventually lead Ivan Luna to build a custom fashion business with over 700 clients, all through referrals. But his path from Mexico City to regional sales manager wasn't just about mastering fabrics and measurements.

Head Coach Rand Pecknold reveals how Quinnipiac's 2023 NCAA Men's Ice Hockey championship wasn't built on raw talent alone, but on something far more powerful: character culture and embracing the grind. After 29 seasons and countless setbacks, Rand shares the exact moment he realized that culture trumps talent every time, and why he completely changed his coaching approach from being a "hard ass" to building genuine accountability through respect.

Head Coach Rand Pecknold reveals how Quinnipiac's 2023 NCAA Men's Ice Hockey championship wasn't built on raw talent alone, but on something far more powerful: character culture and embracing the grind. After 29 seasons and countless setbacks, Rand shares the exact moment he realized that culture trumps talent every time, and why he completely changed his coaching approach from being a "hard ass" to building genuine accountability through respect. His philosophy of "commitment to excellence" extends far beyond the rink, creating young men who Fortune 500 companies should be "lining up to hire."<br /><br />From watching Michigan game film six times to find that one crucial pattern, to the raw emotion of finally breaking through after two previous championship losses, this conversation dives deep into the daily processes that create extraordinary results.

Ashley Hart, founder and CEO of She Plays, faced exactly this reality when she couldn't find a way to watch the Orlando Pride soccer game after the women's team had just won the World Cup. Instead of accepting the status quo, she decided to create the first fantasy league organization focused on women's sports in the U.S. But Ashley quickly discovered a shocking truth: the statistical infrastructure that powers men's fantasy sports had never been built for women's leagues, even for established organizations like the WNBA that have existed for decades.<br /><br />In this conversation, Ashley reveals how she's building the airplane while on the runway, partnering with data providers and leagues themselves to create the missing statistical foundation that women's sports desperately needs. She shares her philosophy of keeping She Plays free and accessible to young fans, the surprising gaps in women's sports coverage that still exist today, and why she believes we're on the verge of a massive shift in how women's athletics are valued and consumed.

Coach Lloyd Morrison turned his lowest moments into his greatest teaching tools, creating a philosophy that's now transforming lives across multiple industries. From working mobile blood drives for the American Red Cross to coaching everyone from five-year-olds to Fortune 500 executives, Lloyd has discovered that success isn't about avoiding failure-it's about mastering the art of getting back up.<br /><br />In this powerful conversation, Lloyd shares his DRILLS acronym that became his roadmap through adversity, explains why he temporarily stepped away from social media to sharpen his focus, and reveals the mindset shift that helped him go from sleeping in locker rooms at 3am to building multiple revenue streams. His approach to sports performance coaching goes far beyond physical training-it's about rewiring the mental game that determines whether you stay down or bounce back stronger than before.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Lloyd Morrison:</b><br />Email: litperformance@gmail.com<br />Phone: 201-637-8469<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/53495104</guid><pubDate>Tue, 11 Apr 2023 09:00:02 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/53495104/coachlloydmorrisonlong.mp3" length="78566201" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>Olivia Atkin</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>What happens when a Division I football player gets suspended, loses his business, and finds himself unemployed during a pandemic?

From working mobile blood drives for the American Red Cross to coaching everyone from five-year-olds to Fortune 500 executives, Lloyd has discovered that success isn't about avoiding failure-it's about mastering the art of getting back up.<br /><br />In this powerful conversation, Lloyd shares his DRILLS acronym that became his roadmap through adversity, explains why he temporarily stepped away from social media to sharpen his focus, and reveals the mindset shift that helped him go from sleeping in locker rooms at 3am to building multiple revenue streams. His approach to sports performance coaching goes far beyond physical training-it's about rewiring the mental game that determines whether you stay down or bounce back stronger than before.<br /><br /><br />Want to grow your podcast, land more guest appearances, and save hours every week? <b>The Podcast Growth Partner</b> helps podcasters, guests, and podcast teams create stronger content, prepare smarter, and grow strategically.<br /><br /><b>Start your free 3-day trial: </b><a href="https://podcastgrowthpartner.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PodcastGrowthPartner.com</a><br /><br />Want personalized podcast strategy support?<b> Book a free clarity call:</b> <a href="http://meetwitholivia.me/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MeetwithOlivia.me </a><br /><b></b><br /><b>Connect with Olivia Atkin &amp; Achieving Success:</b><br />Website: <a href="https://achieving-success.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving-Success.com</a><br />Facebook Community: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/thepodcastpowerhousecommunity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Podcaster’s Powerhouse Community For Business Owners</a><br />Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/olivia.atkin.3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AchievingSuccess0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/oliviaatkin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Olivia Atkin</a> | <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/achieving-success-llc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Achieving Success</a><br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_achievingsuccess/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@_achievingsuccess</a><br /><br /><b>Connect with Lloyd Morrison:</b><br />Email: litperformance@gmail.com<br />Phone: 201-637-8469<br /><br />Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/achieving-success-with-olivia-atkin--5743662/support</a>.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>3120</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>coaching,entrepreneurship,leadership,mindset,motivation,resilience,sports</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/baddbb52f18d004525a9e2646232d267.jpg"/><itunes:episode>24</itunes:episode><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Ep. 23 How To Successfully Climb The Ladder In Public Safety with Scott Ashworth</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/ep-23-how-to-successfully-climb-the-ladder-in-public-safety-with-scott-ashworth--53435552</link><description><![CDATA[What if the secret to accelerating your career isn't talent, but obsession? Scott Ashworth proves this theory by becoming a police lieutenant in just six years-half the typical timeline-before transitioning to protect some of Atlanta's biggest sports venues.

Janine Stella discovered that asking fighters about their stats was exactly the wrong approach - and it led to a complete reinvention of how she connects with people.

Brittany Vasile made this unconventional pivot five years ago, and her reasoning might surprise you. She wanted to experience the world before settling into a career that would tie her down, and now she spends months at sea followed by extended time at home, creating a lifestyle most people can't imagine.

Marques Ogden's story takes you from professional football fields to working as a custodian for $8.25 an hour, then to building a speaking business that now serves 47 Fortune 500 companies. His journey reveals the critical difference between being money-focused versus value-focused, and why networking isn't just important for business - it's the most important part of running your business. Marques shares the exact moment that became his wake-up call, the mindset shift that changed everything, and how he transformed from someone desperately seeking paid speaking gigs to attracting clients through authentic relationship building.<br /><br />This conversation dives deep into the leadership principles that separate great leaders from dictators, including why accepting fault protects your team and builds trust.

Marques Ogden's story takes you from professional football fields to working as a custodian for $8.25 an hour, then to building a speaking business that now serves 47 Fortune 500 companies. His journey reveals the critical difference between being money-focused versus value-focused, and why networking isn't just important for business - it's the most important part of running your business. Marques shares the exact moment that became his wake-up call, the mindset shift that changed everything, and how he transformed from someone desperately seeking paid speaking gigs to attracting clients through authentic relationship building.<br /><br />This conversation dives deep into the leadership principles that separate great leaders from dictators, including why accepting fault protects your team and builds trust.

Glenn Page discovered the answer when the pandemic forced him to reevaluate everything he thought he knew about professional success.

Erica D'Angelo Ochs built an 18-year career in the male-dominated automotive industry by mastering one counterintuitive skill most professionals avoid at all costs. As Chief Revenue Officer turned President of Kappa Alpha Theta, she reveals why vulnerability became her competitive advantage and how saying no strategically opened doors that saying yes never could. Her journey from double-majoring college student to automotive technology leader wasn't about having all the answers-it was about knowing exactly which questions to ask and when to ask them.<br /><br />In this conversation, Erica shares the specific moment she realized her English and computer science background could revolutionize how technical concepts are communicated in automotive software. You'll discover her framework for balancing multiple leadership roles, the negotiation skills she developed through sorority budget management that translated directly to million-dollar business decisions, and why she believes finding your community is more crucial than finding your passion.

Former NFL player Carlif Taylor, who played for both the New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys, reveals why he believes success isn't about reaching goals-it's about evolution.

Chris Wilczewski's journey from American Ninja Warrior competitor to president of the World Ninja League reveals how authentic love for what you do can transform not just your life, but an entire community. His story isn't just about athletic achievement-it's about recognizing when your competitive days are numbered and pivoting that energy into something even bigger.
