  • The Power of "Two" in Leadership and Influence
    Feb 10 2026

    Today marks a powerful milestone for the podcast, Episode 727. This number holds deep meaning for me and offers profound lessons for all of us as leaders and influential voices.

    For years, the number 27 has been my spiritual touchstone, appearing everywhere from my birth date to my wedding anniversary, from my book launch to daily messages from my late fur babies, Lola and Bella. It's how I know I'm aligned with my purpose.

    Join me as I decode the number 727 as a blueprint for leadership and transformation.

    In this episode, you'll discover:

    • Why 727 is more than a number—it's a roadmap for influential leadership

    • How King George and George Harrison embodied the transformative power of "the two"

    • Why mastery requires embracing discomfort daily, not waiting for the perfect moment

    • Questions to help you identify your own "two" and bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be

    Key Takeaway: Leadership and influence aren't about the big moments. They're about showing up for the uncomfortable work in between. That's where your power lives, where your influence grows, and where your voice becomes unstoppable.

  • Cancer Cannot Live in Rooms Full of Light with Dr. John Librett (The Big Talk Academy)
    Feb 6 2026

    In today's episode, you will hear a big talk from Dr. John Librett, an amazing speaker and alum of The Big Talk Academy Mastery. You may remember John from his previous appearance on the podcast in Episode 659, where we discussed trusting the process.

    John is a certified speaker, author, and thought leader in preventive medicine and cancer survivorship. With over 25 years of experience, including chairing a White House Interagency Council, he inspires audiences worldwide to rethink health and wellness through his engaging presentations and practical, actionable insights.

    In his big talk, "Cancer Cannot Live in Rooms Full of Light," he explores:

    • Why the 2,000-year-old prescription of light, exercise, music, massage, and moderate diet shouldn't be considered "alternative" medicine, but instead, fundamental aspects of cancer care

    • How to reframe the cancer narrative and stop using warfare language like "fighting," "battling," and "war on cancer"

    • The reason cancer diagnoses in people under 49 will increase by more than 100% in the next five years

    • How, as a cancer patient and medical student, he advocated for a treatment plan that became a national standard of care

    • What comprehensive cancer care should look like and how we can create it
