  • Episode 802: The Best-Kept Secrets to Creating Million-Dollar Messaging in Your Business
    Feb 23 2026

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

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

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

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

  • Episode 801: What's Working and What Was Discussed Inside My 7-Figure Mastermind Retreat
    Feb 16 2026

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

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

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

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

  • Episode 800: How to Transform Your Business Into a Mean, Lean Profitable Machine
    Feb 9 2026

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

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

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

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