About Alan Lazaros: 

Born into a family that knew both prosperity and hardship, Alan Lazaros experienced life's unpredictable swings from an early age. Raised in the Massachusetts area, he enjoyed an upper-middle-class life until the age of 14, when his stepfather, who had been a consistent figure since Alan was 3, departed from the family. This sudden exit marked a drastic shift in the family's financial situation—his stepfather had thrived financially in the 90s and early 2000s, but upon leaving, he took with him the comfort and security of a steady income.

With his sister moving out around the same time, Alan found himself in a stripped-down family unit, consisting of just his mother and himself. The shift was stark: he went from a life of relative comfort to one where qualifying for free lunch at school became a testament to their diminished resources. Those formative years of struggle and resilience would later sculpt Alan into a person with a deep understanding of life's volatility and the value of perseverance.

About the guest: 

Kevin Daley had a challenging start in life, losing his mother to suicide when he was just three years old. Raised by his father and two older brothers, he developed three ambitious goals at a young age. First, he wanted to play basketball and get paid for it, inspired by someone telling him it was possible. Second, he desired to travel the world. And finally, he aspired to play against and with the best basketball players globally. 

Kevin's persistent pursuit paid off, as he played professional basketball for 14 years, including 10 years with the legendary Harlem Globetrotters. During his basketball career, he had opportunities to play with icons like Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson, even doubling as a stand-in for Jordan in commercials. 

Having traveled to 101 different countries, Kevin achieved his goal of seeing the world. Now, he uses his experiences and expertise as a speaker hired by organizations to cultivate winning mindsets and develop superstar performances. 

Additionally, Kevin works with current and former professional athletes, helping them transform their athletic backgrounds into successful careers as motivational speakers. Kevin believes that every athlete has a unique story to share, whether it be a struggle or a triumph, and he aims to empower them to leverage their experiences into paid speaking engagements.

About Joel Klettke : 

Joel Klettke began his career in SEO but quickly transitioned into content and copywriting, focusing on conversion copywriting. After completing a project for a company in the hosting space, he was approached to create a case study for another company called Pingboard. 

This experience opened his eyes to the complexity and value of customer stories. Recognizing the demand and premium that could be charged for such assets, Joel realized that there were no dedicated teams specializing in customer stories.

He decided to seize this opportunity and build his own team and process around it. Starting as a side project, Joel eventually brought in a partner and grew the business quietly for the first year. Just before the pandemic hit, Joel made it his full-time focus, and now, after almost five years, his company has served over 300 clients and told over two thousand stories. Joel's story highlights the importance of being open to new opportunities and the potential for success in a niche market.

Nicole Bandes is the founder of a virtual team, which she established 7 years ago with the intention of helping individuals make a bigger impact in the world.

But this isn't the way to differentiate yourself; instead, focus on exhibiting loyalty, kindness, and sincerity that sets you apart.

In this episode, Patrick Kegan shares how he carved out his own personal differentiation brand and the strategies to help you do the same.

Direct primary care is a cutting-edge health care system that allows patients and providers to interact more directly. Rather than paying for each medical service, patients pay their physicians or practice a set cost per month. This system creates incentives for both parties, as the provider can cut overhead costs and receive higher quality patient care, while the patient receives personalized services from their physician and more control over their own medical decisions.

Dr. Vladimir Barayev shares his journey from traditional to Direct Primary Care in this episode. He talks about why and how he chose this new model, the benefits it offers both patients and physicians, and it's potential as a major disruptor in the health and medical field.

If you are confident and maintain a good attitude, you will be more likely to attract the right people who will help grow your business. You’ll also be more willing to take risks and pursue opportunities you might not have considered.

This could be a challenge to multigenerational businesses that need to be more vigilant with changes. The world of business is becoming smarter and more data driven. Businesses now have access to countless data points from both inside and outside their organization. And with all this information, the business landscape and the roles of employees and entrepreneurs are changing. For multigenerational businesses to adapt, they must understand how these changes will impact them.

In this episode, John & Connie Kuder shares some coaching tips for empowering multi-generational family business members to remove family friction and recover its hidden costs, lost time, and wasted energy. We also talk about limitations of small businesses and how the mindsets of business owners affect their business’s growth, the changing business environment, and why multigenerational businesses need to adapt to grow.

Snapshot of the Key Points from the Episode:

[03:48] How John & Connie got into the coaching space, and what motivated them.

About John and Connie Kuder - 

John and Connie Kuder are the husband-and-wife owners of Kuder Consulting Group. They help multi-generation family business owners meet the challenges of family dynamics in the business and “ditch the drama.”

Both grew up in a multi-generation family business and had a lifetime of experience in their own family business and working in those of other families. They have seen the good, the bad, and the ugly first-hand.

Like most small business owners, they were not trained in the soft skills required to balance the often-competing demands of family and business. Once they found the rare skills and methods they needed and proved them effective in their own life, they felt compelled to help other business owners and spare them the pain they had endured.

Doing something over and over again doesn’t make you better. Evaluating and making changes is what will make you better. If you’re not in constant evaluation of what you can do better, how you can be better, and how you can make changes, you are prone to not just stagnation but decline. 

What is evaluation? Evaluation is all about knowing what went right, what went wrong, and how you can make it better next time. Doing it will help you identify what you are doing wrong and change it to grow. It will also help you train your mind to recognize your wins, capture them and celebrate them. Capturing your wins provides an objective data source that you can go back to when you get swapped by your emotions to stay in perspective and get things in motion.

Episode Summary -

Human resource is a “must have” for every business, but most small businesses still consider Human Resources a “nice to have”.

It is still an option for most companies and is of the least priority.

Consequently, most small business owners try to handle HR internally, which leads to compliance issues, missing deadlines, no proper HR policies, and worse. 

An HR department can help your business secure top talents, reduce employee attrition, build a solid onboarding process, provide better benefits to your employees, and deal with fewer compliance issues without wasting your energy and time so that you can focus on the core business.

When you have a structured HR in place, it creates a better experience for your employees.

In this episode, Tiffany Slater talks about why Human Resources is a must for every small business and how it helps in business growth.

Snapshot of the Key Points from the Episode:

• Dr. Tiffany outlines her company, her services, and her clients.
• Dr. Tiffany talks about some of the mindset issues small business owners have about HR and how it affects their business.
• The importance of HR for any organization.
• Dr. Tiffany outlines the three critical elements of HR a business owner should know and implement in their business.
• Dr. Tiffany explains why it is important for a company or a business owner to have a human resource friend over an attorney.

Episode Summary -

Whether you are 35 or 55, age doesn’t matter when finding love.

Being in a relationship not only brings happiness, but also helps you to connect with yourself better. It helps you to stay positive and care for yourself and others better.

Finding the right partner makes you a better person; but not finding the right one can make you frustrated, irritated, and lost.

It’s not just about meeting and liking someone; it requires having the right connection, trust, honesty, intimacy, and being able to communicate openly.

Your thoughts, likes, how you see things, etc., need to match. And here is where most successful older people struggle to find the right love partner for them.

In this episode, Michele Burghardt talks about how successful people over 50 can find the right love partner. She also talks about some of the mistakes high-achievers make in dating, which is the reason for failing relationships.

Episode Summary -

Sleeping disturbance, not being attentive, restlessness, losing temper, unbalanced life, unhappiness, dissatisfaction, etc., are some of the common effects of stress.

Stress has become a part of life, but most high-performing professionals and entrepreneurs don’t have to live with the high level of stress they accept as normal. Indeed, we cannot control every circumstance, but we can control how we respond to it.

If not handled properly, stress can affect every area of our life - health, mind, well-being, relationships, and work.

No matter how much we try, we cannot eliminate stress, so we must learn how to handle stress without affecting our lives. And everything starts with our mindset.

In this episode, Kelli Risse talks about how stress is a mindset problem and how we cannot manage stress, but we must learn to walk through it with inner peace.

Running your business can feel like juggling in multiple directions. And being busy with daily activities makes it difficult to understand whether you are moving in the right direction to reach your goals.

When Dawn came to me, she was overworking, with no time for her personal life; yet she was struggling to grow her business.

Success is not measured on the basis of your business; it is all about the right strategies.

Whether you are facing challenges or want to scale up your business to the next level, you will need a mentor or coach to walk you through and guide you with the right strategies.

Every client's situation is different; when I started working with Dawn, she was excellent with what she did, the problem was her business was not structured well. 

I knew Dawn could build a multi-figure business, but she lacked vision.

We structured her business process and repackaged her pricing model, and in 3 weeks, she landed her first high-paying client.

Now, Dwan runs an ultra-high-end consulting business and has a well-balanced life.
