• 77. Decolonizing manifestation, Part 2 - Our Desires come from Ancestors 30.06.2026 31นาที

  Conventional manifestation puts all the weight on you: what you want, what thoughts you think, what you put on your vision board, your vibrations. In today's episode, I'm proposing a radical reframe. Manifestation is a collaboration with your ancestors, and the best way to manifest is to become a channel for what your ancestors already intend for you. And the work includes learning how to listen to them to begin with. (I've also found this to be the most satisfying, effective, and joyfu...
• 76. Decolonizing Manifestation, Part 1: The Roots of Magic 23.06.2026 21นาที

  Why am I teaching manifestation as a marketing teacher? Because effective marketing IS manifesting: changing reality with your intention. Good marketers are master manifestors. But we need to get to the roots of the idea. Because the idea that your mind shapes reality did NOT come from The Secret, or the New Age movement, or a blonde wealth mindset coach. It's actually one of the oldest, most rigorously developed ideas in human history. Then the modern Western stripped it of its e...

  If you're exhausted by AI replacing human voices, automating the soul out of everything, and those hustle-y calls to "adopt AI or be left behind" — we're with you. But here's the other side. Right now, for the first time ever, you have the power to build tools that are custom-tailored to the exact problems you want to help solve in the world, carrying your specific voice and perspective — without a developer, a designer, or a five-figure budget. My colleague Danny Lim and I think this is one ...

  When ADHD coach Jak Levine-Pritzker asked me to be interviewed for her upcoming book on ADHD and intersectionality, I said yes — and asked if we could share it on the podcast too.

• 72. Just because you don't like it, doesn't mean it's a scam 26.05.2026 22นาที

  If you're a practitioner that works outside of mainstream institutions, you might have had your work dismissed as a scam, a grift, or a cult — or if you've watched it happen to someone you respect — this episode is for you. I'm pulling back the curtain on what's actually going on when people throw those words around, and why the answer has almost nothing to do with logic or concern. I'm inviting you to think about who gets the benefit of the doubt in our culture, who doesn't, and ...

• 68. Their discomfort is not your emergency 28.04.2026 9นาที

  This is my love to courageous ones everywhere. People aren't just listening to what you say. They're listening to how you're saying it. If you're saying something that's worth saying... whatever it is, say it with your full chest. Say it like you believe yourself. It matters.
• 67. What small, unscalable businesses teach us about profit 21.04.2026 14นาที

  Why is the deepest business wisdom you can find NOT in an online course?

• 59. What my 30's taught me 10.03.2026 24นาที

• 58. How to actually get unshakable confidence 03.03.2026 9นาที

  You've been told that confidence is an inside job — go inward, believe in yourself, hype yourself up, and then go do the thing. But what if that kind of confidence is fragile and incomplete? In this episode, I'm offering a fundamentally different model of confidence — one that you don't have to generate at all. Listen to hear more about: The critical lesson that The Lion King (yes, the Disney movie) teaches about confidence that the entire self-help industry gets wrongThe difference bet...
