As I wrap-up Season 1, I’m blown away by the amazing things that have happened in the last nine months. I’ve traveled all over the world interviewing world class athletes, best-selling authors, high-performing founders and business leaders. Most recently, I earned a health and wellness certification from Villanova University. In today’s episode, I talk about how I’ve navigated the COVID19 pandemic, hit the reset button on my life and became a certified health coach who helps people live healthier, happier, more confident lives. I discuss how to create a future you’re passionate about and ways to stay the course when you’re feeling less-than-passionate.

These are strange times. Each day feels like a week, and each week feels like a month. And while it can all feel daunting at times, it’s also an opportunity to take stock of your life and make important changes, and support others who want to do the same. If we’re going to get through these times successfully, we must support each other emotionally, physically and spiritually as much as we can. In today’s episode, I catch up with Brenda on where I’ve been and what I’ve been doing as the world navigates a pandemic, enforced quarantines and a whole lot of craziness that can feel totally surreal. We talked about why we should all hit the “pause button” in our lives from time to time, why 24-hour news cycles are toxic to our health and wellness, and why I decided to stop worrying about my life and start living my passion.

Brandon Steiner is no stranger to adversity. Early in his career, he opened a popular NYC sports club at a time when television-watching inside restaurants was unheard of. The first night he opened the doors to his club, he had zero patrons. The second night, he had one. “And that’s because I begged someone standing outside to please come in and give us a try,” he says half-joking. Three months later, the club had throngs of people waiting to get inside and some of the world’s most famous athletes seated at tables. In today’s episode, I interview Brandon Steiner, an author, speaker, serial entrepreneur and seminal figure in the world of sports business. Known as the “Godfather” of sports collectibles and memorabilia, Brandon is the founder and creator of The Steiner Agency, a marketing and talent agency that has worked with some of the biggest names in sports.

When Kinsey Grant first appeared on Episode 17 - "How To Handle Change In A Changing World," no one could have predicted the radical changes the planet would undergo just a few months later as a result of Covid-19. It’s hard to say which changes will stick and which will fall away, but one thing’s for sure: how we live and how we do business around the world has indeed changed. And it will continue to change for years to come. Like most significant world events, we will come to describe life in terms of before COVID-19 and life after COVID-19. In today’s episode, I speak with Kinsey Grant, business editor of Morning Brew, an online newsletter with more than 2 million subscribers and host of the Brew’s popular Business Casual podcast. We discuss the latest post-COVID19 news, what’s happening in the stock market, retail, travel and food industries, and what’s next on Kinsey’s radar.

For the last seven years, J.C. Doornick begins his daily Facebook Live show by greeting his viewers with this quippy intro: “Hi, my name is Dr. J.C. Doornick. I’m a recovering bullshit artist and I’ve been clean for 14 years.” On the outside, the former chiropractor was the picture of success – a beautiful family, thriving business and all the accolades anyone could want. On the inside, his life was a mess: his marriage was in shambles, his business was making him miserable and he had packed on so much weight he was deemed clinically obese. Once an accomplished athlete and driven businessman who regularly worked 80-100 hours per week, J.C. realized his success was not sustainable. He knew he needed to make a radical change. “The truth is, I was a bullshit artist,” he says. “I was afraid and I had zero confidence.” In today’s episode, I speak with health and transformation coach Jean-Claude Doornick on how to transform yourself from the inside-out, take your business from good to great, and bust through stagnation to create the life of your dreams.

Two years ago, Jordan Harbinger’s career came to a screeching halt. Almost overnight, he went from having an enviable position hosting a popular podcast with millions of listeners around the world to being unemployed and spending sleepless nights worrying about his future. Jordan likes to say his COVID-like moment came two years early: it was unexpected, jarring and beyond his control — until, he discovered how to get out of his own way. In today’s episode, I interview Jordan Harbinger, creator and host of The Jordan Harbinger Show, one of the most popular podcast shows in the world with more than 6 million monthly downloads. Often referred to as “The Larry King of podcasting,” Jordan is a Wall Street lawyer turned interview talk show host, and a communications and social dynamics expert. Jordan and I talk about how to bounce back when circumstances beyond your control knock you down; and why having a strong social network is the key to getting back up.

“Getting back to normal” is something we hear a lot about these days. But no one really knows what that will look like or if it’s even possible. Can we really ‘go back to normal’ after COVID19 has wreaked so much havoc around the world across all sectors of life? No one can say with any certainty how things will turn out, not even the experts. But one thing’s for sure: these are strange times we’re living in, and to get through them will require lots of preparation. In today’s episode, I talk about life BC (before coronavirus), DC (during coronavirus), and AC (after coronavirus). As you wait for daily, non-essential operations to resume, how are you using the downtime to prepare for life ‘after corona’? What activities are you devoting your time to that will improve your life and business? How are you preparing for the life you really want?

High-stakes situations force us to dig deep. Real deep. Sometimes that means having to summon up the physical toughness to get through life or death situations. And sometimes that means having the mental and emotional toughness to know when to stay the course — and when to pivot.

In today’s episode, Steve talks about the skills needed to survive — even thrive — in extreme conditions. He talks about the attributes of strong, effective leaders; the qualities of successful teams; and the focus and discipline needed to get through the long, hard slog of challenging times. IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS... The three components that make-up toughness. The difference between toughness and resilience. How to build and develop successful teams. The art of building trust. And much, much more...
