In fact, Steve has had a hand in opening more than 700 ice cream and frozen dessert retail locations around the world and has worked with such chains as Costco, Whole Foods, Shake Shack, Sandals Resorts, KFC, DQ, Hollywood Casinos and many more on training and/or developing their frozen dessert programs.

With industry interviews, vendor listings, marketing, promotion and recipe ideas, scoopschool.com is unique in its focus towards ice cream professionals. Scoop School Live is yet another initiative to bring Steve's frozen dessert industry knowledge and experience to those interested in opening and operating their own frozen dessert business, either wholesale or retail.

In 2015 Steve authored his first book “From Hopeless to Hero: How to Hire, Train and Motivate Super Employees” which became a Best Seller and No 1 new release on Amazon.com. The associated website www.hopelesstohero.com has been assisting employers all over the world in finding, training and motivating their own "super" employees.

Alexander, The Podcaster's Coach
I haven’t connected with a friend since Christmas. We were over-due to connect and I was heading toward his neighborhood one day. He always makes time to have a coffee for me. I’ve known him for 12-13 years.
I call him. His phone is out of service. It’s happened one time before. He has a crummy job and goes through these periods of no work. He lost his phone before, but managed to get it back. He called me when it happened. This time around, he did not give me a heads up. I waited for a week. Nothing.
Fed up of calling a phone number that was invalid, I went to his apartment. No luck. There was mail in his mailbox. I wrote a note and stuffed it in. What’s going on? Give me a call.
Another week, nothing.
I leave messages at the place where I think he works, but is not in the directory. I find out who the property owner of his building is and leave messages…..more like pleas. Do you have any info. Somebody feels sorry for me and calls me back. He moved a couple of weeks ago. So he hasn’t died. I am suppose to be his emergency contact. I am relieved, but I have no way to reach him. We had no mutual friends. He is a single city dweller and I am a family man in the sub-burbs.
Two weeks I worried, almost always assuming the worst. When I found out he moved, I was mad. Why isn’t he connecting with me. I have sent emails. He can check his email at the library. Why? What is wrong.
Then the pain set in. He loved his neighborhood. He had been living in his apartment for about 20 years. He’ll never afford his neighborhood now. He’s almost 60. He’s slower. He’s been having major allergy issues. Last time I visited, we walked to the coffee shop and he had to stop midway to catch his breath.
Where is he? Is he on the street? Is he sick? Did he lose his job? No one will hire him. He’s too old. How can he get by? He has no family. What’s happened? Why?
On and on this went inside my head. My body would follow feeling grief. I was in grieving over circumstances that I did not have information on. Grief became my meditation practice. I was totally fine when it was out of mind, but when it came back, I struggled. The grief sucked my energy and I was sad. Quite frankly, I was sick of myself. I wanted to get out of myself. I just wanted a break.
I have not touched booze in 3 months, but it was the only solution to escape myself. 4 beers and a movie. My children stayed away, without me even asking, and I had a few hours of forgetting.
But of course, I would pay for it. Even thought it was only 4 beers, it completely ruined my sleep. My body detests alcohol. It fights it. While I try to sleep, my body is going crazy working the alcohol out. It keeps me up. I wake up, not rested, and therefore unproductive. Thank god for Sundays.
My focused moved from my lost friend to my stupidity.
When Monday came around, I began to realize that I was grieving over fiction. I had created various negative situations regarding my lost friend. I knew 2 things only - his phone number does not work and he moved. I know nothing else.
I formed these attachments. I became attached to the melancholy. I became attached to grief. I became especially attached to myself - how dare he not call me? Am I not his friend?! Then I became attached to an old coping mechanism, beer, that I knew stopped working. It’s no good, if the end result is bad. The end result being a full day of being tired and not well rested, not to mention being harmful to this vehicle called my body.
Let me tell you something about this experience, and I want you to think about it. Do you do this too? I grieved over fantasy. I went with worse case scenario and experienced a roller...

Keep in mind these things to combat feels of perfectism - Remember something in the past that you took on and compare yourself from day 1 to day 60 Embrace your imperfection.

If you want to be someone new or re-invent yourself, then you have to just do it. You have to start somewhere. You start being who you want to be on day one, and you build your experience up. It’s going to be hard, and you will meet opposition, but you have to persevere. You must not allow negativity from strangers get you down. They are strangers and not a meaningful part of your life. Of course, if I was approach by a stranger with courteous feedback and valid points, that would be meaningful. If it is something other than that, brush it off.
This episode is about a strategy on dealing with criticism which appears negative and unhelpful.
Cory Johnston from The Brainstorm Podcast joins me for a Micro Podcast Improv. I’ll share a short interview that we did together this coming Friday.
Have a great week!

Podcasting is growing and thriving business, but it is much much more than a business. Maybe you are doing this for your existing business, or starting a new business, or even just a hobby. If you are creating a podcast, specifically for a business, it’s a brilliant move of course, but I want you to open your mind to the potential of personal growth while you podcast for your business.
A podcast can be a tool for transformation and personal development. Have you made your goals for 2018? Do you have a vision of what you want your life and podcast to be this year. It's not too late to do it.
In this episode, I ask you to think of these things. Dig in deep, pull that inner artist out again, and design a life with more happiness.

When you want to stretch yourself and grow, it gets uncomfortable. They call it the comfort zone, right? I can see an image of it. You have a person on the left. In the middle, you’ve got static, electricity, a whirlwind, and then on the right, the same person filled with personal growth and development. It’s going to suck when you break through the comfort zone. Notice that I didn’t say, ‘when you try to break through’? I prefer WHEN YOU BREAK THROUGH. It’ll be challenging, but after you break on through the discomfort, you are a higher, more achievement, further enlightened version of your old self.

Podcast News Included on the second half of the program. Special Co-Host is Christian Swain from Rock N Roll Archaeology.
I talk today about stress and choosing to let things go. My stress levels have been very high. Despite having a Publisher for my book, I have had to do and learn so many new things and hire many different people. One person in particular ripped me off, lied to me, and delivered something that I was not happy with. There was a lot of conflict. The product, my media kit, means a lot to me, so I held that in my heart. When things started going sideways, it started to hurt. I carried that hurt and disappointment for days.
But you know, this is life. These things are really hard to avoid. Unless you are dedicating yourself to a meditation practice in a cave, it’s going to be very hard to avoid conflict. Conflict makes me sick inside. Does that happen to you? It feels like a sickness to me. When I have sickness, I want it to go away. We all do, for sure.
When you are in this state, you need to think about your well being, and the well being of those around you.

Hey, this is Alexander Laurin and you are listening to the final episode of season one, of the Podcaster’s Life. My Special guest today is John Lee Dumas!
Thank you for joining me. I took some additional time off after the Christmas break. I finished writing my book. It’s called ‘The Book on Podcasting: An Insiders Guide to Recording Success’. I am really excited to have finished it. It was a lot of work, but I loved doing it. Right now, it’s getting formatted for paperback and the book cover, front and back are coming to completion. Baring any disaster, it will be on sale at the end of the month. It feels really great to say that.
I managed to get 15 minutes with John Lee Dumas, and wouldn’t you know it, it did not record well, but I salvaged what I could. I just bombarded him with questions and then we jumped into a Micro Podcast Improv.
Can you imagine how many people John Lee Dumas has helped? I want to be just like John Lee Dumas and have the power to help an unlimited amount of people.
Before I go and close this season, I’d like to tell you that the podcast is changing. It’s been heavily focused on interviews, but I am going to take a season, and not do any interviews. Also, I’m adding the word HAPPY to the title. The Happy Podcasters Life. I want to inspire you, I want to motivate you, and I want you to be a successful person. If you want success, you must have happiness. That’s my mission. On paper, my mission reads - help 1M Podcasters. As the weeks pass, I hope to hear from you and discover if I am moving closer to my goal of reaching 1M people.

Matt Sanderson is recording his podcast with a chronic illness. Matt discusses his chronic condition, daily struggles, and how recording his podcast, Semi-Intellectual Musings (with his Co-Host, Phil), can be tough, often taking two days to recover from.
Recording is a crazy balancing act. It's a double edged sword that is both painful and medicine. He records with a structure to make podcasting possible, and he LOVES it.
Matt is currently on a medical leave of absence. He discusses his concussion history - the documented and non documents concussions.
He offers wonderful advice for people with disabilities, or those in pain, and the social isolated. Their stories need to be heard.

Striving & Growing.
Blake & Bryan have a voice. Blake's goal was to have a podcast. Here is the Noise Pollution Podcast.
His biggest surprise is the amount of work involved in podcasting, but it has helped him grow as an individual in a short amount of time.
Blake discusses how he and his co-host split podcasting duties, using an idea board of topics, and how improvising is better than scripting.
He talks about the motivation behind the podcast and needing something to strive for and grow with along with getting his voice out there and making something of himself.
Podcasting has been an absolutely phenomenal learning experience.
