284: From Helping Babies Sleep to a $60K Month (Featuring Jayne Havens)

Friday, September 11, 2026 • Duration 55:09

What if your best course idea is hiding in the work you're already doing? Jayne Havens turned her sleep consulting experience into a certification program that reached about $60,000 in a peak month. But building a bigger business was never the whole goal: she wanted meaningful work that still left room for her kids and her life.

In this episode, Jayne shares how she launched to a list of about 350 people, why community and referrals drive her sales, and why she hired experts instead of learning every technical skill herself. Jacques and Rocky also explore what her relationship-led approach means for course creators in the age of AI, with a practical exercise for reclaiming your time.

283: The "One Podcast One Offer" Model Behind a Multi-Seven-Figure Business (Featuring Stefanie Gass)

Monday, September 7, 2026 • Duration 51:25

If your business gets more complicated every time you try to grow, Stefanie Gass's story offers a very different path. She built a multi-seven-figure business by stepping away from social media, committing to one podcast, and directing everything toward one clear offer.

In this episode, Stefanie shares her one person, one problem, one offer model, why she recommends coaching before building a course, and how she turned a successful live launch into an evergreen funnel. Jacques and Rocky also unpack what her simplicity-first approach means for course creators now that AI makes it easier than ever to create more.

282: He Didn't Want AI. Now His AI TEAM Gives Him His TIME BACK (Featuring Angelo Santiago)

Tuesday, August 11, 2026 • Duration 01:13:21

Angelo Santiago wanted nothing to do with AI. His business is built around human connection, and he worried AI would pull him away from the clients and mission he cares about.

Instead, his AI operator, Terry, now handles recurring admin, tracks his business numbers, captures content ideas, and helps keep everything moving. That gives Angelo more time for his clients, his family, and the work only he can do.

Angelo also shares how his own marriage struggles led him to create Better Husband, what he learned from his early podcast experiments and launch setbacks, and what finally changed his mind about AI.

Sunday, August 9, 2026 • Duration 34:30

AI doesn't have to feel confusing.

They also explain the difference between a model and a harness, then walk through the progression from basic chat to automations, AI agents, and always-on AI operators. If you want to move beyond simply chatting with AI and start using it to do real work, this episode gives you the foundation.

279: Beyond ChatGPT - My Simple 2026 AI Setup

Tuesday, June 2, 2026 • Duration 25:36

If ChatGPT is still the only AI tool you’re using, this episode will help you take the next step.

In this episode of The Online Course Show, I’m sharing the AI tools I’m actually using in 2026. Not a giant list of random apps. Just the ones that are saving me time and changing how I work.

I talk about why I’ve been using Claude as my daily driver AI, how to get better results with simple prompting habits, why “do research” is one of my favorite phrases to add to a prompt, and how Wispr Flow has made it much easier to give AI the context it needs.

I also walk through Claude Cowork, how I use Rocky in my own business, why Pikzels has become part of my YouTube workflow, and why Claude Code is worth trying even if you don’t think of yourself as a coder.

If AI feels overwhelming, don’t try to learn everything at once. Pick one tool. Try one workflow. Build from there.

IN THIS EPISODE

• Why ChatGPT is only the beginning
• Why I’m using Claude as my main AI tool
• How to use “do research” to get better answers
• Why AI can sound confident and still be wrong
• How to use ELI5 prompts
• How to make AI review your work from your audience’s perspective
• Why Wispr Flow makes prompting faster
• What Claude Cowork does
• How Pikzels helps with YouTube thumbnails
• Why Claude Code is useful beyond coding

278: Meet the AI Operator That Runs My Business

Thursday, March 26, 2026 • Duration 30:22

I spent years in the online course world thinking ChatGPT was basically the whole AI story. It wasn't. In this episode, I talk about what changed when I finally went deeper and built a personal AI operator that helps run my business 24/7. I share what it actually does, why it has been such a game changer for me, and why I think this shift is going to matter for every digital product creator.

277: The “One Video a Week” System That Built a Million-Dollar Course Business (Featuring Lauren Bateman)

Thursday, March 5, 2026 • Duration 01:01:38

What does it actually look like to build a seven-figure course business that doesn’t depend on you being “on” all the time? In this episode, I sit down again with Lauren Bateman to talk about what’s changed since her last appearance—and how she’s grown to over $1M per year while keeping her workload lean.

We break down her YouTube consistency, simple but powerful A/B testing wins, how she structures her funnel, and why chasing viral content can distract you from the audience that actually buys. If you want a more predictable, sustainable course business, this conversation is packed with practical takeaways.

276: The “Go Wide, Go Deep, Go Long” Model for Course Creators (Featuring John Meese)

Thursday, February 19, 2026 • Duration 01:05:06

Most course creators think the path to success is to go wide first — build a big audience, create a big course, launch to the masses. But what if that’s actually the slowest way to build momentum?

In this episode, I sit down with John Meese from Sell Your Smarts to unpack his “Go Wide, Go Deep, Go Long” framework — and why starting with depth (not scale) is often the smartest move. We talk about how to land your first high-ticket clients without ads or social media, how to craft a 10x promise that cuts through the noise, and why we’ve officially entered what John calls “The Age of Insight.” If you’re building (or rebuilding) your online course business in 2026, this conversation will challenge the way you think about offers, audiences, and growth.

275: Live Launch vs Evergreen: The Real Decision Behind High Results (Featuring Stephanie Gaffney)

Thursday, February 5, 2026 • Duration 52:06

If you’ve ever found yourself answering the same questions over and over and thinking, “I should just turn this into a course,” this episode is for you. In today’s conversation, I sit down with Stephanie Gaffney, a live wedding painter who transformed a decade of experience into a premium online program — and did it in a way that actually serves her students and her life.

We dig into how Stephanie built The Wedding Painter’s Blueprint, how she priced it confidently at a premium level, and what really went into launching a high-touch course while juggling family life, client work, and a growing business. This is a behind-the-scenes look at what it actually takes to turn creative expertise into a sustainable, scalable offer — without cutting corners or burning out.
