About Bob Campana: Bob Campana is a lifelong entrepreneur whose career spans five decades and industries as varied as construction, real estate, hospitality, and global travel. From building one of California’s top swimming pool companies to creating the award-winning Redwood Café, his ventures reflect a deep belief that business is ultimately about people, purpose, and perseverance. The author of Don’t Look Down! shares hard-won lessons on risk, reinvention, and resilience drawn from a lifetime of turning challenges into opportunities. When he’s not advising founders or leading small-group travel experiences around the world, he’s still doing what he’s always done—building connections that last.
In this episode, Dan and Bob Campana discuss:
- Overcoming fear and adversity through bold decision-making and resilience
- The importance of empathy and authentic human connection in business and life
- Lessons learned from decades of entrepreneurship across multiple industries
- Finding meaning, legacy, and purpose through storytelling and shared experiences
Key Takeaways:
- Shift your sales approach from price and product to purpose and emotion by discovering what truly motivates your customers—often their desire to create lasting memories—and build your entire pitch and experience around helping them achieve that dream.
- Lead through presence, gratitude, and genuine curiosity by walking the floor, engaging directly with your team and customers, and creating a culture where appreciation, personal acknowledgment, and human warmth drive both loyalty and performance.
- Transform setbacks into stepping stones by viewing every failure, crisis, or unexpected turn—whether it’s a business challenge or a life-threatening accident—as an opportunity to learn, connect deeper with others, and build a stronger, more resilient version of yourself.
- Adopt the “rocking chair test” before making big decisions—imagine yourself at the end of your life asking, “Will I regret not doing this?”—and let that clarity push you to take bold, informed action rather than letting fear dictate your path.
"Empathy, the big thing is understanding everybody has a story, everybody has an individual life, and respecting that... enriches your life more." — Bob Campana

In this episode, Dan and Debra Clary discuss:
- Curiosity as a catalyst for stronger leadership and organizational transformation
- Developing environments that nurture curiosity and psychological safety
- Shifting leadership mindsets from having answers to asking better questions
- Turning curiosity into a measurable and repeatable driver of performance and innovation
Key Takeaways:
- Research confirmed that when leaders consistently model and reward curiosity, their teams mirror that behavior—resulting in measurable gains in engagement, job satisfaction, and overall performance.
- Neuroscience shows curiosity isn’t a personality trait but a state influenced by environment, meaning organizations can deliberately cultivate it by encouraging inquiry and rewarding experimentation.
- Executives who view curiosity not as a luxury but as a strategic advantage are better equipped to adapt, innovate, and maintain competitive momentum in rapidly changing markets.
- Establishing a culture where people feel safe to ask questions, challenge assumptions, and offer ideas empowers teams to move from compliance to creativity and unlocks the full potential of collective intelligence.
"Curiosity is contagious; when you’re around curious people, your curiosity level will increase at the rate that theirs is." — Debra Clary

About W. David Prescott: W. David Prescott is a seasoned geologist and environmental consultant with over 30 years of experience. He has led numerous projects across the U.S., balancing environmental responsibility with economic growth, and is recognized for his work in groundwater protection and contaminated site remediation. Prescott advocates for market-driven solutions to sustainability, combining his expertise with leadership roles on community and state boards to influence policies promoting both ecological health and economic prosperity.
In this episode, Dan and W. David discuss:
- ESG mandates and their expanding influence on financial markets and corporate behavior
- America’s struggle to maintain energy independence while pursuing environmental goals
- The global race for energy dominance and its link to technological and geopolitical power
- Capitalism’s resilience and innovation as forces shaping future prosperity
Key Takeaways:
- ESG pressures have caused capital markets to dry up for oil and gas operators, leaving even profitable and well-managed businesses unable to secure investment, which erodes U.S. energy independence and destabilizes entire regional economies.
- Eliminating natural gas from fertilizer production would devastate agriculture by cutting yields of staple crops like corn and wheat by 60%, driving food prices sky-high, and threatening both national food security and global supply chains.
- When investors and pension funds prioritize ESG mandates over fiduciary responsibility, they risk poor returns and massive financial losses that can derail individual retirements and undermine the stability of billions in pension assets.
- While China and India rapidly expand coal, nuclear, and refining capacity to fuel AI and industrial growth, the U.S. is retreating from dense energy production, a strategic misstep that could result in decades of lost economic power and global influence.
"There has to be a liaison between the natural environment and industry. We have to have jobs, we have to have energy to have the life that we have, and we want to continue to have, but we can do it responsibly." — W. David Prescott

About Eric Degen: Eric Degen is the Principal of Titan Business Development Group, a business coaching, advisory, and exit planning firm based in Flanders, New Jersey. He is a Certified Public Accountant, Chartered Global Management Accountant, Certified Exit Planning Advisor, Licensed Professional Business Coach, and Certified Mastermind Executive Coach.
In this episode, Dan and Eric Degen discuss:
- Shifting from a technical profession into coaching and advisory work
- Comparing different ways experts support business owners
- Struggles entrepreneurs face in managing and growing their companies
- Planning ahead to protect and increase the value of a business
Key Takeaways:
- Entrepreneurs who operate in a constant state of reaction—matching competitors’ prices, chasing short-term fixes, or confusing busyness with productivity—miss out on the deeper benefits of building foresight, strategy, and proactive leadership that create sustainable growth.
- Because 75–80% of businesses that go to market never sell and many shut down unexpectedly due to events like death, disability, divorce, disputes, or disasters, owners who don’t prepare years in advance risk losing not only their company but also their legacy, their employees’ futures, and their financial security.
- While revenue and profits are important, the real long-term value of a business comes from strengthening intangible capital such as leadership teams, customer loyalty, processes, and brand reputation, which collectively represent about 80% of valuation and directly influence a buyer’s perception of attractiveness and stability.
- By deeply listening to customers—observing what they say and do without judgment—business owners can uncover valuable patterns, unmet needs, and subtle signals that guide smarter decisions, build stronger relationships, and transform raw feedback into a roadmap for innovation and competitive advantage.
"My greatest tip is so easy: listen carefully, closely, everything your customer says and does; everything they say and do, watch them, listen to them, and don't be judgmental, because everything they say and do is a blessing for you." — Eric Degen

About George Pesansky: George Pesansky is the President of MyBlendedLearning.com and a seasoned operations performance coach with more than 30 years of experience in continuous improvement, leadership development, and performance optimization. A Six Sigma Master Black Belt and veteran of both the U.S. Army and Fortune 500 organizations, he has trained and coached thousands of professionals in Lean, Six Sigma, and systems thinking. George is the creator of Deliberate Improvement® and Deliberate Reliability®, innovative frameworks designed to help organizations sustain results, eliminate waste, and unlock the root causes of success. He is also the author of the upcoming book Superperformance (September 2025), which reveals eight proven strategies to turn peak moments into everyday excellence. As a speaker, author, and nonprofit advocate, he is passionate about empowering individuals and teams to achieve sustainable success and lasting impact.
In this episode, Dan and George Pesansky discuss:
- The difference between learning theory and applying knowledge in practice
- Leadership approaches that prioritize team empowerment over individual recognition
- Identifying and removing barriers that limit personal or organizational performance
- Strategies for sustaining long-term improvement and preventing burnout
Key Takeaways:
- Sustaining long-term success requires deliberately identifying, measuring, and consistently repeating the specific actions and conditions that create positive results, rather than only analyzing problems or failures.
- The “leaky bucket” concept highlights that organizations waste time and resources when they focus solely on adding new initiatives while ignoring inefficiencies, turnover, and systemic waste that continuously drain performance.
- Shifting from a “me” style of leadership to a “we” style—where leaders empower teams to operate effectively without constant oversight—creates resilience, sustainability, and stronger organizational outcomes.
- Focusing on immediate “target conditions,” such as the next exam or milestone, helps individuals and teams build momentum through small, achievable wins, rather than being paralyzed by distant and abstract goals like graduation or retirement.
"You can't sustain what you can't explain. So, if you don't know what helps you work, if you don't know what helps you succeed, there's a good chance you won't continue to do it." — George Pesansky

- Leadership is shaped by humility, service, and the willingness to adapt
- Personal growth through overcoming obstacles and developing enduring habits for success

- The Eight Habits—attitude, work ethic, agility, vulnerability, network, focus, dogged determination, and faith—serve as a structured framework to help individuals and organizations maintain strength and progress through victories and defeats alike.
- Embracing vulnerability, though challenging for those in leadership roles, allows others to step in with support, fosters trust, and strengthens relationships, ultimately creating more sustainable success.
- True leadership is measured not by position or recognition but by consistent servant leadership, meeting people at every level with respect, and leading with the heart as much as with strategy.

About Mark Ryski: Mark Ryski is the Founder and CEO of HeadCount Corporation, a pioneering firm in store traffic and conversion analytics since 1994. He is a recognized industry authority and the author of three influential books, including Store Traffic Is a Gift and CONVERSION: The Last Great Retail Metric. Mark’s work has shaped how retailers worldwide measure and improve in-store performance, earning him media coverage in outlets like Forbes, Retail Dive, and The Globe & Mail. As a frequent contributor to RetailWire and other forums, he continues to advocate for smarter, data-informed retail strategies.
In this episode, Dan and Mark Ryski discuss:
- The growing role of data in physical retail decision-making
- How analytics are reshaping the brick-and-mortar customer experience
- Ongoing challenges and myths around measuring store performance
- Resilience and innovation across years of retail disruption
Key Takeaways:
- Many retailers continue to allocate staffing budgets based on historical sales instead of aligning labor with actual store traffic patterns, resulting in lost sales opportunities, staff burnout, and a long-term erosion of conversion potential despite high footfall.
- Despite the increasing importance of data-driven insights, nearly half of all brick-and-mortar retailers still do not track in-store traffic at all, missing out on fundamental visibility into how many sales they could or should be converting.
- By identifying “super converting stores” — those that consistently outperform their peers in converting visitors into buyers relative to traffic volume — retailers can uncover overlooked talent, replicate successful behaviors, and improve underperforming locations with real-world best practices.
- The pandemic starkly highlighted just how fragile and valuable in-store traffic truly is, as even massive multi-store retailers saw their daily foot traffic collapse to zero, proving that every visit is a finite, high-stakes opportunity that must be measured and maximized.
"There's so many places to buy everything in this day and age, online, other physical stores, etc.—that you have to assume once they leave without buying, they may never be back." — Mark Ryski

About Ken Bruce: Ken Bruce is a two-time Emmy-winning animation director whose career spans iconic projects including Toy Story 3, Up, Shrek, The Simpsons, Ren and Stimpy, The Fairly OddParents, and Family Guy. A lifelong Walt Disney enthusiast, Ken spent over a decade researching and writing his acclaimed book Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room Before the Birds Sang Words. The book offers a deeply immersive and visually rich exploration of the origins of Disneyland’s Tiki Room, the rise of Audio-Animatronics, and the legacy of Imagineering. With a storytelling style that blends cinematic flair with meticulous historical research, Ken brings the magic behind the magic to vivid life.
In this episode, Dan and Ken Bruce discuss:
- Creative innovation in theme park storytelling and experiential design
- Shifts in animation industry culture and personal artistic evolution
- Intersection of nostalgia, technology, and narrative immersion
- Independent historical preservation in pop culture and entertainment
Key Takeaways:
- Without access to Disney’s official archives, Ken Bruce built a comprehensive historical account through deep independent research, interviews, and family collections.
- The Enchanted Tiki Room began as a background sketch and evolved into a pioneering animatronic show, highlighting how small artistic gestures can trigger massive creative developments when leaders stay curious and adaptable.
- Walt Disney’s decision to replace live performers with mechanical figures stemmed from his drive to maximize scalability and efficiency, reminding innovators to always challenge operational limits in pursuit of sustainable magic.
- To break into animation or any competitive industry, creators must focus on emotional connection over polish, because compelling original work that resonates is more likely to open doors than technical perfection alone.
"If you can make something of your own that for even two minutes holds someone’s attention, you’re good to go." — Ken Bruce

About Patrick Ungashick: Patrick Ungashick is a nationally recognized speaker, author, and CEO with over 30 years of experience advising business owners and executive teams on leadership, growth, and exit strategy. As the founder of NAVIX Consultants, he has guided hundreds of companies through successful exits, representing more than $2.5 billion in enterprise value. His latest book, A Day for Leadership, distills timeless leadership lessons from the D-Day invasion into practical insights for today’s executives navigating pressure and uncertainty. A frequent keynote speaker and workshop leader, Patrick helps leaders elevate their decision-making and build aligned, high-performing teams.
In this episode, Dan and Patrick Ungashick discuss:
- The importance of leadership and team alignment in business success
- Strategies and challenges around building high-performing teams
- Insights into creating effective business exit strategies
- Drawing lessons from historical military operations to guide modern leadership
Key Takeaways:
- Business leaders who shift their mindset from building a great company to building a great team will achieve greater, more scalable, and more sustainable results because empowered teams are the ones who create lasting value.
- The true value and long-term viability of a business—especially in the context of a sale or succession—rests heavily on the strength, cohesion, and alignment of its leadership team, not just financial metrics or market share.
- A powerful way for leaders to evaluate the health and potential of their team is to regularly ask themselves whether they would enthusiastically rehire each member today based on current cultural alignment, future needs, and individual contribution.
- The story of General Clarence Huebner’s transformation of a fractured, insular military unit into a cohesive, mission-ready force before the D-Day invasion shows that with urgency, clarity, and the right leadership approach, even deeply entrenched cultures can be rebuilt under extreme pressure.
"The business leader’s primary responsibility is not to go build a great company, but to build a great team, and then the team builds that great company." — Patrick Ungashick

- Organizations should recognize conflict as the spark for innovation and change, understanding that when managed well, it can lead to breakthroughs in problem-solving, team dynamics, and workplace growth.

About Jon Sneider: Jon Sneider is the founder and president of Wild Gravity, a multi-award-winning creative production agency disrupting the advertising industry. A veteran marketing executive, Sneider has led global campaigns for brands like L.L.Bean, Windows, and Redfin, where he experienced firsthand the inefficiencies of traditional agencies. Determined to create a faster, more cost-effective approach, he built Wild Gravity to streamline creative services, production, post-production, and CGI under one roof. His upcoming book, Hacking Advertising, provides a blueprint for brands to bypass the outdated agency model and produce world-class ads without the unnecessary costs and delays. Today, Sneider and his team work with industry giants like Amazon, Microsoft, Hasbro, and the NBA, proving that great advertising doesn’t have to be slow, expensive, or complicated.
In this episode, Dan and Jon Sneider discuss:
- Broken traditional ad agency model and why it no longer serves modern businesses
- Five key metrics that determine whether an ad campaign is successful
- Evolution of advertising production and how smaller, more agile companies are changing the industry
- Challenges of writing, publishing, and marketing a business book in today’s landscape
Key Takeaways:
- Large advertising agencies are inefficient because they don’t actually produce the ads themselves, instead outsourcing to multiple vendors, which increases costs, slows down production, and creates unnecessary complexity.
- Many award-winning ad campaigns fail to drive sales because they focus too much on breakthrough creativity rather than brand and message recall, leading to ads that people remember but don’t connect to the product.
- Companies that consolidate creative, production, post-production, and visual effects under one roof can produce high-quality ads in a fraction of the time and at a much lower cost compared to traditional agencies.
- Writing a book is the easy part, but the real challenge comes afterward with marketing, building an audience, and handling promotion, since even major publishers no longer take on those responsibilities for authors.
"You've spent all this money overfocusing on breakthrough, and agencies do this all the time because that's the work that wins awards. And so, awards are great for the agency, but they do nothing for the client." — Jon Sneider

About Hilary Swan: Hilary Swan, founder of Rebel Scout Consulting, has spent 16 years working for global sales organizations and has carried the bag, launched new products, led sales teams, and simply knows what good looks like and how to get you there.
Every step of the way Hilary has had a burning to feed her entrepreneurial spirit and coveted passion to develop people to win but didn’t quit dial how to share her wealth of knowledge and expertise, until now. As founder and principal consultant, Hilary has had the honor of supporting over 35 companies in the past 3 years and contributed to millions of growth for these businesses.
In this episode, Dan and Hilary Swan discuss:
- The role of fractional sales leadership in modern businesses
- The importance of consultative selling in building long-term relationships
- Common difficulties founders face when trying to effectively sell their products
- Utilizing professional networks strategically for business growth
Key Takeaways:
- Fractional sales leadership provides small businesses and startups with access to high-level sales expertise without the cost of a full-time executive, offering hands-on guidance in strategy, sales process development, and team management to drive measurable revenue growth.
- Many salespeople and entrepreneurs mistake social selling—friendly conversations and networking—for actual selling, but unless they can effectively communicate value, address pain points, and guide prospects toward a purchasing decision, their efforts will not lead to closed deals.
- Founders who struggle with sales often focus too much on perfecting their product rather than learning how to price, position, and pitch it effectively, leading to missed opportunities and slow business growth despite having something valuable to offer.
- Hiring the wrong salesperson can set a business back significantly, which is why evaluating a candidate’s ability to engage, listen, and build trust within the first 30 seconds of an interview is critical, as it reflects how they will perform in actual sales conversations.
"Think about everybody you're interacting with—they have a full-time job to do, and even though they may be a buyer or decision-maker, it doesn’t mean that they even necessarily know how to buy." — Hilary Swan

About Chris Murphy: Chris Murphy has been in sales leadership roles for SaaS companies for 25+ years, including several VC-backed start-ups and more recently, PE-owned portfolio companies. He has built and scaled sales teams across a variety of business applications as well as technical platform software vendors. Now as part of the Sales Xceleration network of Advisors, he helps small to mid-sized companies by building out a sales infrastructure which allows them to scale their sales operation and grow their revenue. In addition, he often takes over as their “fractional” VP of Sales to manage, guide and grow the sales team.
In this episode, Dan and Chris Murphy discuss:
- Managing and scaling sales teams effectively
- The role and impact of part-time leadership in sales growth
- The importance of foundational systems for scaling operations
- The role of qualification, negotiation, and consistency in driving success
Key Takeaways:
- Companies often lack essential sales infrastructure, such as scalable processes and systems, which prevents growth; implementing these basics can transform revenue trajectory, as seen with a tech company that grew from $1.2M to $4M in two years.
- Rushing to provide demos without first qualifying prospects is a critical mistake that erodes leverage, as buyers disengage once they've seen the product and price without committing to the process.
- Fractional sales leadership, even with just one day per week of involvement, is proven to deliver measurable results, with an average client sales increase of over 30% within a year, according to the Sales Acceleration Network.
- The most effective salespeople maintain consistent effort, focus on long-term success, and avoid getting overly emotional about short-term wins or losses, ensuring sustained high performance across sales cycles.
"If you can do something positive for a company, and especially if it's something significant like helping them double their revenue in a short time, it impacts the entire company." — Chris Murphy

We can build our innate resilience like a muscle
International speaker and resilience mentor Sandra Younger lost her home and nearly her life in California’s biggest wildfire. She has best-selling book about the disaster called “The Fire Outside My Window,” Sandra teaches a five-step resilience-building system she developed that empowers others to transform crisis into possibility and even loss into legacy. Speaker, author, trainer, survivor.
After rebuilding my home and my life in the wake of the 2003 Cedar Fire, I noticed that while most people affected by the fire considered themselves "survivors" on their way to overcoming a devastating setback, some seemed to embrace the "victim" label that the media and so many others attached to us. Even more fascinating, it didn't seem to matter how much or how little they'd lost in the fire. In fact, some of those who'd lost the least seemed the most bitter, while those who'd lost loved ones seemed determined to move on with positivity. That's when I realized: We may not always get to choose what happens to us, but we can always choose our response. This made me wonder what else we might be able to do to speed and strengthen our recovery from adversity, which led me to discover a rich vein of empirical research documenting ways we can build our innate resilience like a muscle. I boiled these findings down to five powerful, common-sense resilience-building practices I call The ComeBACK Formula almost anyone can use to overcome almost any adversity.
Questions You’ll Hear Today
- What does a disaster survivor's experience have to do with me and my business challenges?
- Is resilience innate or acquired?
- What are the five steps, summarized in The ComeBACKFormula, proven to build our innate resilience like a muscle?
- What easy, commonsense practices can help me apply these principles to my life and business?
- What is "the changemaker's journey" that world-changers like Nelson Mandela, Malala, and Steve Jobs followed to transform their own losses into legacies benefiting the entire world?

Creating Leverage for Success
Virginia Muzquiz is the Referral Diva! Well-known for her passion for connecting the people she meets to the people they need to know, six-figure solopreneurs hire Virginia to help them develop marketing plans that, when implemented, create a proactive, on-demand referral stream. Ultimately, Virginia's clients build businesses that fuel their passions, fund their dreams and have MASSIVE IMPACT on the communities where they live and serve.
Virginia was raised by an entrepreneur, so that spirit is in her blood. The single most powerful success she’s had was building a No Child Left Behind division of a St. Louis area tutoring company from $0 in revenue in 2005 to $2.5MM just six years later... without a marketing budget! What Virginia learned through that experience, and what she shares with entrepreneurs, is how to leverage other people's influence to make miracles happen. Virginia left that company in 2011 to start her own coaching company and began teaching business owners the principles she’d discovered and she’s helped 100's of solopreneurs hit and exceed the six-figure mark... by referral.
Questions you'll hear on the podcast today

How a Slow and Steady Investment Really Does Win the Race
Moneeka Sawyer is the creator of the Blissful Real Estate Investor Formula. She authored an international best seller, Choose Bliss: The Power and Practice of Joy and Contentment. The book details the proven strategies she shares as an executive coach for more than 10 years. Moneeka believes that we can and should choose bliss in all areas of our lives, from relationships to business to investing. Her expertise has been featured on ABC, NBC, and Fox.
One evening when Moneeka was 22, her Dad sat her across the table and said to her "Moneeka, everyone has money issues. Do you want poor people money issues, or rich people money issues?" That night changed her life. Moneeka’s parents came to this country with only $200 in their pockets and a dream to create a better life for their family. Dad had heard that the golden ticket to wealth in the United States was to invest in real estate, so as soon as he could he bought a home. Then Mom and Dad saved their nickels and dimes to buy their first rental property. They bought several more and 18 years later, paid for the college educations of their 3 daughters, and then they paid for our weddings.
Warren Buffett says "If you can't control your emotions, you can't control your money." Bliss is about emotional mastery. Moneeka teaches her clients the strategies they need to be wealthy, but more importantly she teaches them how to create emotional mastery so they can enjoy the journey, and also enjoy the rewards.

Exploring Personal Development, Zenfully
Mariko Hirakawa is an internationally known Yoga expert and founder of Visionary Yoga, a personal development company dedicated to accelerating the growth of motivated individuals and companies through the wisdom of Yoga. She’s a teacher of teachers, presenting at Yoga Festivals and conferences around the world.
Mariko has had two defining moments. One was when she was a professional ballet dancer at age 19 in NYC, going through a "purpose-crisis". The moment Mariko started to question what the purpose of her spending 8-10 hours in a dance studio was, why she danced, everything started to fall apart. Mariko then realized dance, the one thing she had dedicated herself to, was not her real purpose.
From that moment Mariko has been seeking to first realize and live into that dimension for herself on a more constant basis, and second, to spread the message and the EXPERIENCE of the depth dimension of Yoga - the message of Yoga as the doorway to your most expanded, most resourceful state, around the world.
The second was when I had been teaching for about 4 years, she started to attract many clients who were terminally ill. One time Mariko was out of town, she received news that one of her clients had passed away. Mariko sought all kinds of healing modalities – shiatsu, energy medicine, Chinese medicine, but when she came across Ayurveda, she knew it was something she needed to pursue deeper. Today, Mariko uses Ayurveda to serve her clients in connecting to their strengths and to use self-knowledge as a tool for healing and growth.
Questions you'll hear on the podcast today
- What is Yoga and how can it help me grow my business? How can it help me become a better leader?
- How can Yoga help me to be in my Peak Performance state?

- What can I do to create more balance and well-being in my life?
- What are some tools & techniques I can use to access my most resourceful state in the midst of stressful situations?

She is also a Christian missionary, traveler, entrepreneur and the host of Bible Stories for Adults on YouTube with over half a million views.
When Marie started writing books, she decided that as an author she would only spend what she made from her writing. That meant about a year of no income. Getting creative with funding meant taking on ghostwriting jobs, earning commissions on collaborative books, and blocking off time to take advantage of EVERY free-trial offer that applied to what she did. Pretty soon Marie was out-earning the people who had started with $30,000 in initial funding. Marie knew the products inside and out, became sought after for entrepreneurial advice and began being invited as a guest to high-dollar events.

After nearly 30 years of serial entrepreneurship working with men in a variety of leadership roles and raising a son on her own into manhood it became clear to Emerald that we live in a world where there is a terrific amount of restriction still on men's ability to access their emotional and creative power and channel it in positive, life affirming, purpose driven ways. Men are 3 times more likely to commit suicide - and are still highly conditioned to suppress and repress. Her own son made multiple suicide attempts and began self-medicating and self-endangering as he went through adolescence. Being left with a minimal range of societally accepted emotions hinders the ability of men to lead from their heart as well as their head and to truly succeed in applying all their gifts to solving the challenges in their business, relationships and in the world.
Questions You’ll Hear Today
- What does it mean to be "called" to be a Creative Age Leader?
- Why is making emotional connection more important now for a leader to focus on than it's ever been in the past?
- What happens when emotional reservoirs are locked and blocked and how does this impact the bottom line for a business?
- How can men access their creative power in a way that enhances rather than diminishes their "manhood" & leadership abilities?
- How can men cultivate "animal magnetism" so that more opportunity, better team members and more success is able to be achieved in every area of their life?
- What are the 3 most effective exercises of expression that a man can use to uncage his "beast" and restore his roar? What is the M.A.N. plan
- How does increasing emotional clarity impact decision making capacity?
- How can we find out more about your work with men who know it's time to make their mark and start leading like a legend?

Releasing Wild Leaders in Today’s Business Jungle
After 25 years as a consulting urban forester, Elizabeth Walker flipped the tables with a new approach to her work. She now works with overwhelmed executives to help them reconnect with their "wild" self - and the wild - so they can be the great leaders we need them to be.
Elizabeth has been "one of the (nice) guys" all her life, with four older brothers and becoming a leader in a male-dominated profession (urban forestry). Her business motto was "helping people and trees live together" - which for the past decade has become challenging and frankly, unfulfilling. Elizabeth recently realized that her superpower is working well with men, which has led me to work with (mainly male) executives who need to reclaim (or find) their "mojo" so they can be better leaders for themselves and the world around them.
Questions You’ll Hear Today
- How do I know when I'm not grounded in my work?
- Why is what I'm doing or how I'm leading no longer working?
- What is the first thing to do to become more focused and productive?
- What are some simple habits to have to reconnect with my "wild" best self?
- If I'm truly lost or don't know where I'm going, is there a way to figure out my best next step?

Show Notes by: Anna Nygren
Using Scientific Curiosity to Heal the Body
Twenty five years ago, Anastasia became so ill, she could only function at most 2 hours a day.
Conventional medicine had no viable solutions. In a self help group in Germany, she met a
small group of women that were using energy medicine to help themselves and their family.
When Anastasia attended classes, she discovered her abilities to move energy rapidly for
herself and others. Because her scientific expertise was in the realm of quantum and vibrational
physics, it was easy to understand how energy travels, interacts with matter, and can be
controlled to deliver exactly what's needed. Anastasia can use and explain energy healing in
such a way that people understand it. It's not just woo woo.
Dr. Anastasia Chopelas’ unusual combination of scientific curiosity and heritage as a 4th
generation healer makes her uniquely qualified to understand the subtle energies that promote
or deteriorate health, success and relationships. She retired from a 40 year career as a physicist
and researcher studying quantum and vibrational physics to become The Scientific Healer. Her
processes are responsible for hundreds of medical miracles, some of which are outlined in her
book, "The Diamond Healing Method. Get Healthy No Matter What Your Doctor Says.”
Questions You’ll Hear Today
1. Is health and success related?
2. What ways do you help people running big business
3. When running a business, interpersonal relationships are of utmost importance. What
are some of the ways old relationship baggage can get in the way of running a
successful business?
4. Aside from old relationship baggage, what are some of the other ways that could
energetically repel people from signing up with your programs or services?
5. What have been some of the results you’ve seen for business owners and
entrepreneurs?

Paving a New Path for Therapeutic Success
Changing the Face of Therapy is what Gary Sinclair is doing. His latest therapeutic process
Soul Link has proven to neutralize thousands of Post Traumatic Shock Disorder memories in
seconds. Gary has three lifetime achievement awards for his work. It’s been said that his
groundbreaking efforts may prove to be the future of medicine. Gary's life of healing miracles
could be a story unto itself.
Soul Link which is patent pending became the latest work June of 2014 after doing 36 years of
working with people and healing a lifetime of memories over two days. Having been born with
50% lung capacity followed by 14 years of Multiple Sclerosis until Gary was at 80% mobility
loss, he began healing over two years at age 36 to fully gain his body back and then
miraculously receive full lung capacity in 15 minutes. Gary then researched every form of
therapeutic energy healing work and created what started out as him helping others through a
three day life changing program has become a two day training known as Restoration. He has
had no failures in this work right from the start as it’s done content free as much as possible. It
is the person that is doing the work on and for themselves. Soul Link as the newest work is
faster and more efficient than any form of therapy he has ever trained in. While the best
therapies have at least a 20% or greater failure rate, Soul Link has not failed on over 10,000
clients with a medical peer review on 2,200 doing it for themselves as taught with complete
success. From a Veteran to a business man, the memories that hold them back can now be
neutralized.
Questions You’ll Hear Today
1. When you speak of Life as Energy, what is a simple application a businessperson can
make from what you teach? (Anxiety model)
2. Is it possible to simply understand why Soul Link is 100% successful in neutralizing ANY
memory in seconds?
3. You say Soul Link does to a memory what Restoration does to your life. So you are
saying that what a practitioner can do to heal and individual memory for a client, many
are also trained to do their entire life over two days using Restoration?
4. It appears your work is all natural and literally anyone can take the training. Is this true?
