  • Release the Pressure: A Peaceful, Powerful Approach to Goal Setting
    Nov 11 2025

    Every new year brings a surge of energy around resolutions and goals. But what if all that pressure to “start strong” is what’s actually holding you back?


    In this solo episode of Avant-Garde Entrepreneur, Dr. Trisha Bailey shares a refreshing and deeply personal approach to goal setting that replaces stress and self-criticism with peace, clarity, and purpose. Instead of setting rigid annual goals, Trisha creates intentions in 90-day seasons, giving herself the freedom to realign and breathe throughout the year.


    She introduces three soulful and practical ways to complement your traditional goal-setting routine: write a letter to yourself, create a vision board, and yes—delete some of your goals. These tools are about letting go of pressure and bringing more peace and possibility into your process.


    Through stories, reflections, and honest examples from her own life, Trisha invites you to rethink what success looks like and rediscover the joy in becoming who you’re meant to be.

    Tune in and listen to the seventy-fifth episode of Avant-Garde Entrepreneur to release the pressure, reclaim your peace, and set goals that align with your spirit, not your stress.


    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • Why quarterly intentions can transform your focus and peace of mind and set you free from the “New Year’s frenzy” (1:20)
    • Three supplements to traditional goal setting (4:00)
    • The underestimated power of vision boards (9:20)
    • What it really means to let go of outdated goals and how doing so might lead to even greater fulfillment (14:00)
    • How intention setting connects how you want to feel with what you want to achieve (17:00)
    • What to do when you feel foggy, unclear, or overwhelmed while planning your next steps (21:00)

  • The Storytelling Framework That Captivates and Converts, with Robert Kennedy III
    Oct 28 2025

    Storytelling is one of the most powerful tools in business. But knowing how to use it to teach, connect, and move people to action is what separates a good speaker from a magnetic communicator.


    In this episode of Avant-Garde Entrepreneur, Dr. Trisha Bailey sits down with Robert Kennedy III, communication and leadership strategist, keynote speaker, and founder of Kinetic Kommunications, to explore how storytelling transforms communication and leadership.

He shares how to capture attention, communicate with confidence, and lead with purpose through the stories you tell.

His approach combines strategy and heart, showing that authentic storytelling is less about performance and more about genuine connection.


    Tune in and listen to the seventy-fourth episode of Avant-Garde Entrepreneur to learn how to make your stories unforgettable, your confidence unshakable, and your communication truly kinetic.


    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • Robert’s early journey from Jamaica to New York to Canada, and how teaching shaped his voice as a communicator (3:10)
    • The Three C Framework for powerful storytelling: Challenge, Catalyst, and Change (6:50)
    • How to recognize when your story has landed and your audience is engaged (10:50)
    • The “cheat code” to instantly grab attention within the first 15 seconds of any presentation (14:00)
    • Why connection, not perfection, is the real secret to confidence (19:20)
    • Why feedback is free education and how to use it to refine your message (23:10)
