The One Phrase That Makes People WANT to Buy
03 nov. 2026
00:26:43
There are seven words you can say before making an offer that make people want to buy more, and they sound like the opposite of a pitch.
Say them, and their guard drops, they lean in, and you’re no longer convincing anyone of anything.
I’ll give you the words, show you what they do in your buyer’s head, and tell you the one way they backfire. But first, you need to see why everything you’ve been taught about pitching is working against you.
Chapters
00:00 Why pressure makes prospects shut down 03:17 The seven-word offer transition 04:17 A typical pitch versus a low-pressure offer 06:00 How the phrase honors the buyer and gives them an out 09:12 Why permission to refuse can increase openness 11:12 How “but” creates curiosity and an open loop 14:15 The offer still needs a specific payoff 17:21 Use the phrase on calls, webinars, and in emails 19:38 When the phrase backfires: insincere sales tactics 21:05 The belief bridge and selling as an invitation 23:48 Try the phrase once in the next seven days

What if you could have all the income of a coaching business without being stuck on client calls all day?
Picture it: an open calendar. A real vacation, where you’re not checking your phone. No more ending the week exhausted from back-to-back calls.
Most coaches think that’s a fantasy, because ‘that’s just what the job is.’ It’s not.
There’s a way to build a high-paying coaching business where you never have to get on a single one-on-one call. And in this episode, I’m going to show you exactly how.

Please Don't Ignore This 2,000-Year-Old Success Principle
13 oct. 2026
00:38:13
There's something quietly robbing you of your success right now.
It's not your market. It's not the algorithm. It's not your audience or the economy. It's you.
And honestly, that's the best news you'll hear today, because if it's you, you can fix it.
And the fix isn't a new strategy, a new tool, or a new funnel. It's been hiding in plain sight for over 2,000 years, and most people read right past it. Please don't be one of them
In this episode, I'm going to show you what it is, how to catch yourself working against it, and the one shift that changes everything.

I Paid Myron Golden $375,000, Here's What It Made Me...
06 oct. 2026
00:53:58
I regularly sell coaching that costs $27,000 and $55,000. And here's what most people selling high-ticket won't tell you: I buy it too.
Last year I wired Myron Golden over $375,000 to be one of his VIP clients for the year and I’ll tell you right up front that I’ve made over $2M in additional revenue running the plays he gave me.
But the money isn't the most important thing I got. It was a principle that changed the moment I hit "send." on the wire. It's the reason most people never get results from coaching, and I'll show it to you in this episode.

Become Irresistible in Your Industry (Steal This Formula)
29 sept. 2026
00:37:06
"So what do you do?"
It's the most important question you'll ever be asked in business, and most entrepreneurs blow it every single time.
They start explaining. Their process, their method, their certifications. And you can literally watch the other person's eyes glaze over.
But there's one simple sentence that flips it. Say it the right way, and people lean in, ask for your card, and sometimes turn into clients on the spot.
And today, I'm going to hand you the exact formula. So stop explaining yourself… and let's make you irresistible.
Chapters
00:00 Introduction: The Power of the Right Message 00:40 Why Most Entrepreneurs Fail at the 'What Do You Do' Question 02:25 The Problem with Describing Tasks and Certifications 04:21 The Importance of Focusing on Transformation 05:51 The Magic Sentence: I Help Who Achieve What Without What They Dread 10:03 The Psychology Behind the 'I Help' Formula 13:22 Positioning as the Guide, Not the Hero 18:10 Defining the Core Transformation and Desired Outcomes 22:22 Crafting Your Irresistible One-Sentence Bio 30:50 Practical Tips for Using the Magic Sentence in Marketing

Is It a Sin to Want More? (A Christian's Honest Answer)
22 sept. 2026
00:39:52
I wasn't sure if I was even going to make this episode — this might get me in some trouble. But I think it's a conversation Christian entrepreneurs need to have: is it a sin to want more?
For years I've heard the message from well-meaning Christians — 'just be content, don't be greedy, guard your heart.' But what if we've confused contentment (a state of peace) with ambition (a pursuit of growth) — and they're not actually opposites?
In this episode, I unpack what the Bible really says about wealth, ambition, and stewardship — including a command in Genesis 1:28 that gets completely overlooked, and a parable in Matthew 25 that flips the way most of us think about playing it safe.
This is for the Christian entrepreneur, business owner, or leader who's felt guilty for wanting more — and is ready to hear a different take.
Chapters
00:00 Introduction: Addressing the Tension Between Contentment and Ambition 02:02 Graham's Personal Journey from Low Expectations to Abundance 04:37 God's Call to Start a Business and the Growth It Brought 08:11 Redefining Contentment as a State of Being, Not a Limitation 12:28 The First Command: Be Fruitful and Multiply 15:30 The Parable of the Talents and Stewardship 19:53 God's Desire for Expansion and Abundance 22:37 Contentment and Ambition as Complementary, Not Opposing 29:34 The Power of Ambition to Achieve Great Things 34:07 Pursuing Big Goals to Grow and Mature Spiritually 37:17 Encouragement to Follow God's Call and Read the Bible for Guidance

Become a Part-Time Millionaire (Three Things You Must Do)
15 sept. 2026
00:33:48
If you're doing six figures a year — maybe $100K, maybe $300K — and you feel like you've hit a wall... I need you to hear this: working harder is not going to get you to a million dollars.
In fact, it's probably the exact thing keeping you stuck. I've coached hundreds of entrepreneurs through this exact ceiling, and every single time, it comes down to the same three things.
Today I'm giving you all three — the exact shifts that take someone from grinding at $200K to running a part-time million-dollar business. Let's get into it.
Chapters
00:00 Introduction: Why working harder won't scale your business 01:39 The mindset shift: Becoming a different person 02:38 Why dilution is the main obstacle to growth 05:01 The three major shifts to scale from 300K to 1M 05:30 Shift 1: Going premium and high-ticket 07:02 Repackaging your offer into a high-value premium package 08:01 The psychology of pricing and attracting premium clients 09:19 Join the 10K Offer Challenge to create a high-ticket offer 10:43 Focusing on the true value and transformation 14:34 Shift 2: Precision in messaging and targeting 15:32 Niche down: Speak to one person with one problem 17:28 The importance of clarity on who you serve 20:02 The power of focused marketing and content strategy 22:27 Shift 3: Prioritization and doing less better 23:52 The 80-20 rule: Focus on what moves the needle 25:42 Choosing one platform for maximum client acquisition 27:19 The importance of identifying what is working 28:45 Simple, focused strategies for sustainable growth 29:46 Recap: Go premium, be precise, prioritize 31:21 Final thoughts: The power of focus and simplicity

I've sold over $20 million in coaching online. And the biggest thing I've learned? Stop trying to convince people to buy. It never works. Why?
Because people buy for one reason and one reason only: because they feel like it.
So the question is: how do you help them feel like buying your thing?
Today, I'm giving you the exact 3 strategies I use to sell high-ticket offers — without pressure, without pitching hard, and without ever trying to close anyone.
If you're tired of chasing sales, this is going to change how you sell forever.

The Simplest Million-Dollar Business (Just 3 Steps)
01 sept. 2026
00:27:42
Business isn't hard. You just made it hard.
Right now, somewhere, someone is building a funnel. Adding another automation. Redesigning a logo nobody asked about. Adding one more upsell step to a checkout page that's already three pages too long.
And they'll tell you they're "working on their business."
They're not. They're hiding.
Because as long as there's one more thing to build, you never have to find out if the business actually works. You never have to sell. You never have to face the possibility that it was never that complicated — and you've just been too scared to keep it simple.
So today I'm going to show you the simplest million-dollar business there is — the one I wish someone had shown me years ago. No funnel required.
Chapters
00:00 The myth of business complexity and hiding 00:22 The simplest million-dollar business 01:14 Creating irresistible offers in five days 02:09 Why building funnels is hiding, not selling 03:01 Tools and distractions that hinder business growth 03:58 The truth about online business distractions 06:11 The path to a simple million-dollar business 07:23 Knowing your 'who' in business 08:15 The importance of clarity on your target audience 09:32 Choosing the right platform for discoverability 10:17 Magnetize your audience with YouTube 13:24 Long-form content and pre-selling 14:43 Deepening mentorship through content and offers 19:15 The power of high-ticket offers 22:49 Why focus on core activities and avoid distractions 23:42 The proven path: attract, serve, and sell 25:16 Focus on three core business activities 26:01 Getting to work and building a real business

If you're creating content — YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, a podcast, whatever — and it's not turning into money, I want to tell you something that might sting a little: it's not an algorithm problem.
It's not a consistency problem. It's a words problem.
You're posting. You're showing up. But most of what's coming out of your mouth or off your keyboard isn't the kind of content that actually gets people to buy.
Here's the thing nobody tells you: people don't pay for information anymore — they can get that anywhere for free. What they pay for is life.
And there are three specific kinds of words that create it. Once you know what they are, you'll know exactly why your content hasn't been converting — and exactly what to say instead.
Chapters
00:00 Content isn't a algorithm problem, it's a words problem 02:08 Words as a tool for creating life and connection 03:31 The metaphor of the tree of life in words 05:12 People pay for life, not information 06:04 Infusing life into relationships, health, finances, and hobbies 07:25 The influence of Myron Golden and feeling alive 09:07 Three types of words: healing, hopeful, helpful 10:19 Healing words mend the heart and address pain 12:27 The power of storytelling and emotional connection 14:09 Hopeful words reignite dreams and optimism 16:18 Helpful words guide action and application 18:37 The role of wisdom and actionable content 20:39 Encouragement and the power of small drops of hope 21:49 The importance of guiding actions with helpful words 23:56 Wisdom as a tree of life in content 25:38 Storytelling frameworks for engaging content 27:21 The importance of actionable takeaways in content 28:41 The three-step content wealth machine 29:50 Focusing on one person, one platform, one payoff 33:55 Case study: helping Japanese speakers improve English pronunciation

Stop Teaching: Why Your Best Content Is Costing You Sales
18 août 2026
00:36:29
If you're a coach, here's something that might sting a little: teaching great content isn't what gets people to buy from you.
I know — you've heard the opposite your whole career. And look, you can be an incredible teacher, people can love every minute of your content, and still not buy.
Because content doesn't sell. Belief does.
Today I'm going to show you the difference — and why missing it is quietly costing you sales.
Chapters
00:00 Content doesn't sell, belief does 02:24 Why webinars often fail to convert 05:31 Two reasons tactical content backfires 06:00 Creating a try-it-before-you-buy culture 07:24 Helping clients become the person who can succeed 10:13 The shift from teaching tactics to belief principles 11:07 The power of identity in transformation 12:18 Using principles to rewire beliefs 13:12 Personal transformation through content 14:36 Removing old beliefs to make space for new ones 16:01 Addressing internal objections and worthiness 17:12 Difference between tactics and principles 18:07 Teaching what to think and why 19:32 The impact of deep belief content 21:00 Overcoming money stories and past failures 22:24 The worthiness question in sales 24:58 Investing in oneself as a reflection of worth 27:46 The importance of paying attention 31:45 Stop over-teaching and shift to belief content 34:39 Transform your content, transform your sales

Just Ignore Your Competition: Your Business Is Capped Until You Stop Comparing
11 août 2026
00:24:14
I don't know what my competitors charge. I don't know what they're launching. I don't look at their offers — and I haven't in years.
Here's why: looking at your competition isn't market research. It's a tax on your creativity.
Every time you check what someone else is doing, you're not gathering intel — you're quietly trading your original vision for their ceiling.
Today I'm going to show you why your business is capped the moment you start comparing, and what to do instead.
Chapters
00:00 Why looking at competitors limits your business 00:37 Market research vs. creative originality 02:01 The problem with copying competitors 03:27 Focusing on your clients and yourself 05:28 The power of ignoring your competition 06:28 You are unique and have no real competition 08:57 The impact of social media on mental space 11:19 Unsubscribing and disconnecting for growth 14:42 Creating space for original ideas 17:33 The importance of originality in a copycat world 21:11 Retreat, reflect, and create in silence

You’re pitching before they’re ready (do this first)
04 août 2026
00:37:50
I've spent the last two weeks going through sales copy for two different clients — and they both made the exact same mistake.
Not a small one. A mistake that's probably costing them thousands of dollars every single month.
And here's the crazy part — their copy actually looks good. Great hook. Clear offer. They just skip one thing... and it's the one thing that actually gets people to buy.
If you've ever written a sales page, an email, or pitched on a call and felt like people just... didn't lean in the way you expected — this is exactly why. Let's break it down.

Discounting Is Disrespectful (3 Rules for Charging Premium Prices)
28 juil. 2026
00:26:40
If you're scared to charge full price... if you feel bad when someone says they can't afford your program... if you've ever quietly lowered your price because you didn't want to seem greedy — you are losing the exact clients you're trying to win.
Most coaches think discounting is kindness. It's not. It's disrespectful.
And today I'm going to give you the three rules I follow that let me charge premium prices without guilt — rules that most coaches break without even realizing it.
I'm also going to tell you about the time someone told me flat out he couldn't afford my program... and what happened two days later completely changed how I think about who can and can't afford to work with me.

Normally on this show, I'm the one teaching or asking the questions — but today I flipped the script.
This is actually a conversation from my wife Shay's podcast, Better Way to Build, where she interviewed me. And we didn't hold back.
After 20 years of marriage and 17-plus years of both of us running our own separate businesses, we got real about the actual cost of entrepreneurship — the stuff nobody puts in the highlight reel. Contentment, connection, peace — what it's taken from us, and what it's given us.
So stick around, because this one's more vulnerable than what you're used to from me.

So I got this comment on my last video about Brittany — the one where she made $50,000 in 30 days off five DMs selling a $10,000 offer.
”Nobody's paying you $10,000 for that. I'm calling total BS on this one.”
...If you say so.
Here's the thing — this comment isn't dumb. It's actually really common. And it comes from a broke belief that's keeping a lot of you stuck right where you are.
So let's talk about it — because he's not wrong that it sounds crazy. He's wrong about why.

If I Wanted To Make $50K In The Next 4 Weeks, I’d Do This
07 juil. 2026
00:23:30
Most people think making $50K in 30 days is impossible — especially with no audience, no funnel, and no ad budget.
But what if it's not about working harder, getting lucky, or going viral?
A client of mine just did exactly that. No funnel. No ads. No big following. She didn't even have a website page for her offer.
Today I'm going to walk you through exactly what she did — and the one thing she built first that made all of it possible

Stop Working Fridays: Why Working Less Will Make You Richer
30 juin 2026
00:38:01
Most people think you get rich first, and working less is the reward. What if that's completely backward?
In 2009, I was broke. On food stamps. A brand new dad, no job, just starting a business out of a spare bedroom. And a mentor told me to do something that sounded completely insane: stop working one day a week. Indefinitely.
Not after I made it. Not once business was steady. Right now, while I had nothing.
I thought he was crazy. I did it anyway. And it became the single decision that changed everything about how my business grew from there.
By the end of this, you'll have a simple way to work less starting this week — and why that might be the smartest business move you ever make.

Courses Are Dead, Sell This Instead (My 2026 Blueprint)
23 juin 2026
00:35:22
Courses are dying.
Not because they stopped working — because something has changed about what people are actually willing to pay for.
Today I’m going to show you exactly what that is, and what to sell instead. And no, it's not one-on-one coaching.
There's a model in between a course and a coaching call that almost nobody talks about, and it's the reason my clients are getting better results than they ever did from anything I sold them before.

How to Become a Part-Time Millionaire in 2026 (5 Hours a Week!)
16 juin 2026
00:35:41
What if you could become a millionaire working part-time?
For the last several years I've generated over $3 million annually — working about five hours a week. Not five hours a day. Five hours a week. And in this episode I'm going to show you exactly how that's possible.
We're going to start by looking at the two kinds of millionaires — because most people are chasing the wrong one. Then I'm going to break down the millionaire math, because the numbers are going to surprise you.
And then I'm going to give you the three rules you have to follow if you want to build wealth working part-time. By the end of this, you're going to see that this isn't just possible — it's actually simpler than you think. Let's get into it.

The Expert Era Is Over: The New Way to Build Wealth With a Small Audience
09 juin 2026
00:37:34
The expert era is over.
And if you've built your business on being the expert — the go-to, the smartest one in your space, the person with the audience — I know that's uncomfortable to hear. But somewhere deep down, you already feel it. Something's shifted.
The stuff that worked for the last ten years just… doesn't hit like it used to. The content's harder. The audience is harder. Being good at what you do doesn't seem to be enough anymore.
Here's what I need you to know: that's not in your head. The ground really is moving. The era of winning by being the expert is ending — and it's ending fast.
But here's the part nobody's telling you. This is the best possible news for you. Because what's replacing it doesn't require a bigger audience, more content, or working harder than you already are. It actually requires less. And the people who see this shift coming — the ones who get ahead of it right now — are about to have the easiest, most profitable few years of their entire business.
So let me show you exactly what's dying, what's taking its place, and how you get on the right side of it before everyone else figures it out.

Just Charge More: Why Your Cheapest Clients Are Your Most Expensive Problem
02 juin 2026
00:47:48
The clients who pay you the least are costing you the most.
I know that sounds backwards — but after 16 years of building businesses and coaching hundreds of entrepreneurs, I can tell you with absolute certainty: your low prices are not protecting you. They're slowly destroying your business.
Now, most people think the solution is simple — just charge more so you can make more money.
And yes, that's true. But here's the thing — that's actually the least interesting reason to raise your prices.
There are four other reasons your cheap prices are killing your business that have nothing to do with your bank account. And today I'm going to show you exactly what they are.

There are three reasons most entrepreneurs stay broke their entire career — and none of them are what you think.
It's not the economy. It's not your niche. It's not your following size. It's not even your work ethic. In fact, some of the hardest working people I know are also the most broke.
What's actually keeping you broke is invisible — it's running in the background like software you didn't know you installed. And the good news? You can delete it. Today I'm going to show you exactly what it is and how to fix it — because once you do, wealth isn't a goal anymore. It's inevitable.

Just Work Less: Your Income Explodes The Moment You Stop Hustling
19 mai 2026
00:36:05
What if the reason your income isn't where you want it to be has nothing to do with how hard you're working — and everything to do with the fact that you're working too hard?

Because when you slow yourself down, your business and income will explode.

Tiny Audience, Huge Income: The Small Audience Blueprint That Generates 6 and 7 Figures
12 mai 2026
00:45:04
What if I told you that one of my coaching clients had only 500 YouTube subscribers — and was making $30,000 a month?
No viral videos. No massive following. No posting every day.
Just a tiny audience and a huge income.
Most people assume that to make serious money online you need hundreds of thousands of followers, a big platform, and years of grinding out content before anything happens. So they chase the algorithm, post constantly, and burn themselves out trying to get in front of more people.
But here's the thing — that's not the model. That's the trap.
The real model is simpler than you think. And in this episode, I break down exactly how it works — including the four things you need to do to turn a small audience into a life-changing income.
If you've ever felt like your audience is too small to make real money, this one's for you.

Stop Building A Middle Class Business In A Two-Class Economy
05 mai 2026
00:37:04
The economy right now is splitting into two very different worlds — and depending on which world your business is positioned for, you're either about to have the best year of your life or the hardest.
Today I'm going to show you exactly what's happening, why the middle is the most dangerous place to be right now, and the three steps you need to take to make sure your business is on the right side of this divide.
Stay with me — because point two is the one most business owners get completely wrong, and it might be costing you more than you realize.

The One Thing Standing Between You and the Business You Actually Want
28 avr. 2026
00:44:57
You already know what kind of business you want to build. You know how you want to work, who you want to work with, and what you want your life to look like. You've known for a while now.
So why aren't you doing it?
It's not because you lack strategy. It's not because you need another course or a better funnel. It's because somewhere along the way, you stopped giving yourself permission to actually go after it.
Today I'm going to change that.

You woke up Monday with a full calendar. You worked all day. Tuesday, same thing.

And the worst part? You're going to do the exact same thing next week.
That's not bad luck. That's a loop. And most entrepreneurs are stuck in it without even knowing it.

Why Smart Entrepreneurs Struggle to Sell (Even With a Great Offer)
07 avr. 2026
00:34:40
Most people think their offer isn’t converting because of pricing… or leads… or their marketing.

There’s something else happening before anyone ever says yes…and if you miss it, they either won’t buy—or they’ll buy and not get results.

Small Audience, MORE Money: The Real Reason You’re Not Making More Money
31 mars 2026
00:29:32
If your audience doubled tomorrow… it probably wouldn’t fix your income.
Because your problem isn’t your audience size… it’s how you make money from the audience you already have.
I know what you’re thinking…‘If I just had more followers… more views… more reach… then my business would finally work.’ But right now you’re posting more, getting fewer views, your email list isn’t converting like it used to… and it feels like you’re falling behind.
That’s not a content problem. That’s not an algorithm problem. You have a math problem.
Because I’ve built a multi-million dollar business working 5–10 hours a week… and it has nothing to do with having the biggest audience.
In fact, I’ve made more money with smaller audiences than I ever did chasing bigger ones.
So in this video, I’m going to show you how a small audience can actually be your biggest advantage… and how just a handful of clients can replace thousands of customers—if you structure your business the right way.

The 4 Levels of Income (Most People Are Stuck on #2)
24 mars 2026
00:36:30
If you stopped working tomorrow…how long would your income keep coming in?
For most people, the answer is obvious.
And the reason has to do with something most people have never been taught about money.
There aren’t just one or two ways to make money.
There are actually four levels of income — and most people spend their entire lives stuck on the second level without even realizing it.
Today, I’m going to show you the Income Ladder — the four levels of income and why the people who build real wealth move past level two.

Before You Copy Another Entrepreneur, Listen To This
17 mars 2026
00:36:58
One of the biggest mistakes entrepreneurs make is copying what other successful people are doing.
Someone launches a course… so we launch a course. Someone starts a mastermind… so we start a mastermind. Someone builds a funnel… so we build a funnel.
But we rarely stop to ask a much more important question: What are those people optimizing for? Another way to ask it is: Where does that path actually lead?
Today I want to share with you a powerful principle that explains why some people end up exactly where they want in life… and others spend years walking the wrong path.

3 Quiet Habits That Build Wealth Without the Hustle
10 mars 2026
00:50:53
Most people think the loudest, busiest, most aggressive people win in business.
But in my experience, the opposite is often true.
Some of the most successful people I know are surprisingly quiet. They’re not chasing attention. They’re not constantly hustling. And yet they consistently build wealth and earn massive respect.
Why? Because they practice three habits that most people completely overlook.
And once you understand them, you’ll realize why quiet people often end up winning.

Become An Irresistible Coach: Why Some Coaches Get Results, Referrals, and Repeat Clients
03 mars 2026
00:39:51
How do you become an irresistible coach?
If you look around your industry, you’ll notice something interesting.
Some coaches consistently get results, steady referrals, and clients who keep coming back… even though they’re not the most experienced, the loudest online, or the cheapest option.
Meanwhile, a lot of really smart, caring coaches struggle to stand out or wonder if they’re even worth what they charge.
Today, I want to show you what actually separates those coaches — not marketing tactics or credentials, but how they show up inside the coaching relationship itself.

If you think selling is about scripts, closing tricks, or overcoming objections… you’ve been lied to.
Because here’s the truth: people don’t buy because you said the right thing—they buy because they feel like it.
So if that’s true, the real question isn’t how do I sell harder…it’s how do I make someone want to buy—without pressure, persuasion, or chasing?
In this video, I’m breaking down the #1 sales tactic that lets you sell literally anything—and why most entrepreneurs completely miss it. Stick with me, because once you see this, selling gets a whole lot easier.

If you’re trying to grow your business by getting more clients, more leads, or more followers… I want to flip that thinking.

Let me show you three things premium businesses do that almost nobody else is willing to do.

10 févr. 2026
00:47:18
Most people think getting rich is simple:
Work harder. Hustle more. Grind longer.
But here’s what nobody tells you…Hard work won’t make you wealthy. Some of the hardest-working people I know are still stressed about money…While other people—who honestly seem almost lazy—are the ones building real wealth.
And it’s not because they’re smarter. It’s not because they got lucky. It’s because they’re playing a completely different game.
So in this episode, I’m going to break down 5 principles wealthy people understand that most people never learn…And if you apply them, you can stop trading hours for dollars…And start building wealth the way it actually works.

03 févr. 2026
00:35:40
If selling your offer makes you feel pushy, awkward, or just… out of alignment—this video will change how you think about sales forever.
Because the problem isn’t that you’re bad at selling.
It’s that you were never meant to sell in the first place.
And once you understand the difference between selling and inviting, everything about how you grow your business gets simpler—and a lot more effortless.

Most Businesses Never Reach $1M for One Simple Reason
27 janv. 2026
00:44:18
Most businesses never hit a million dollars a year for one simple reason—and it’s not traffic, talent, or timing.
I’ve watched smart, hard-working entrepreneurs grind for years, doing everything ‘right,’ and still stay stuck below seven figures. And almost every time, it comes back to the same mistake.
They’re undercharging.
In this video, I want to show you why pricing isn’t just about making more money—it actually affects the quality of your clients, the peace you have in your business, and how fast you can scale.
I call this the Six P’s of Premium Pricing, and once you see this, you’ll never look at pricing the same way again

I’ve made over $15 million selling online courses over the years… but here’s the thing — I stopped selling them.
And no, it’s not because courses don’t work.
It’s because the business model changed…buyers changed…and honestly, I changed.
In this video, I’m breaking down the three reasons I walked away from online courses, what I’m doing instead, and — most importantly — how to know if courses still make sense for your business in 2026.

Today’s the day. My new book, The Effortless Business, is officially out.
I wrote this for entrepreneurs who want to build a high-income, low-maintenance business & life. For those business owners who are tired, stretched thin, and quietly wondering if success is supposed to feel this heavy.
For years, the message has been: More content. More clients. More hours.
And yet… so many entrepreneurs are burned out, stressed, and secretly wondering if this is really “winning.”
That tension is why I wrote my new book, The Effortless Business.
This isn’t a productivity book. It’s not about hustling harder or managing your time better. It’s a complete re-design of how business works—built on simplicity, leverage, and freedom.
Inside the book, I share the exact frameworks I’ve used (and taught thousands of clients) to: • Build a high-income business without working nonstop • Attract premium clients without posting every day • Create offers that sell without exhausting sales calls • Design your business around your life—not the other way around
If you’ve ever looked successful on paper but felt tired in real life… this book is for you. And if you’ve ever wanted to build a dream business that doesn’t become a prison, this is for you.

The Only 5 Ways to Grow a Business (Everything Else Is Noise)

00:41:02
If you want your business to grow this year, I want to save you a lot of time and stress. There are only five ways to grow a business.
Everything else people obsess over—algorithms, hacks, posting more, working harder—is just noise.
I’ve grown multiple seven-figure businesses, and every revenue increase I’ve ever had came from turning one of these five dials—sometimes just slightly.
Today I’m going to show you what those dials are, how they actually work, and how to know which one you should focus on this year—so you stop guessing and start growing on purpose.

Why I'm Rethinking Goals Altogether
30 déc. 2025
00:37:22
As we head into a new year, I’m not trying to set bigger goals or push harder. Honestly, I’m doing the opposite.
I’ve realized that striving has a way of sneaking in — even when things are going well — and it slowly steals joy, peace, and clarity.
So lately, every goal and every decision in my life and business has to pass through the same three filters: Is this simple? Is this effortless? And… is it actually fun?
Today, I want to walk you through that filter and how it’s changing the way I build, decide, and trust God with what’s next.

If you feel stuck right now, this might explain everything.
If you’re being honest, do you ever feel like you’re behind in life? Like everyone else is hitting milestones, growing their business, crushing their goals… and you’re just trying to keep up?
Maybe you’ve been working hard, doing everything you know to do, but it still feels like nothing is changing. Like you’re spinning your wheels while everyone else is sprinting.
But here’s what most people don’t realize: There are four stages you move through before you experience a breakthrough…and if you’re listening this, there’s a very good chance you’re a lot closer than you think.
Today I’m going to show you exactly where you are on that path—and why this stage you’re in right now is not a sign that you’re behind…but actually a sign that you’re right on track.

Most people are sitting on a wealth-building asset they use every single day…but they’ve never learned how to activate it. That asset is your mouth.
Your words—used the right way—can actually create wealth.
And no, I’m not talking about manifesting, visualizing, or trying to “speak money into existence.”
What I’m talking about is far more practical and far more powerful: the specific kinds of words you put out into the world determine the opportunities and income that come back to you.
Right now I’m going to show you the three types of words that create wealth—and how to start using them today.

Most people think becoming a millionaire requires outrageous risk, insane luck, or some genius idea no one else has thought of.
But the truth is… the fastest way to seven figures is surprisingly boring.
No flashy moves. No overnight miracles. Just three simple steps — repeatable, predictable, and available to almost anyone willing to follow them.
I call it The Boring $1 Million Playbook. And once you hear how it works, you’ll never look at wealth the same way again.
Let’s dive in

If you travel for work — podcasts, speaking, masterminds, networking — you’re probably doing it wrong.
Most entrepreneurs are traveling for free… when every trip could be a profit center.
Case in point: I made $90,000 in 3 hours on a trip to Vegas that had nothing to do with selling.
And today, I’m going to show you the simple framework behind it — so you can turn any trip, meetup, or event into a revenue-generating opportunity without adding more work, being salesy, or building another funnel.

Have you ever shared something genuinely valuable… and it feels like nobody cares?
You post content that could literally help people — and it gets ignored. You speak up at work or in your community, and it’s like your voice doesn’t matter.
Meanwhile, someone with half your wisdom and half your experience gets all the attention.
Here’s the uncomfortable truth: In this world, people don’t respond to value first. They respond to signals.
And if you don’t understand that, your message will never break through. Let me show you why this happens — and what the Bible actually says about it.
