Podcast: EP 107 The Power of Storytelling by Jude Charles

by | May 23, 2023 | Podcast, Success

The power of a good story is life changing.

 

I got connected to today’s guest through a good friend who recommended him so highly, I knew I had to invite him on the podcast. Jude is an incredible storyteller through documentary films and has so much wisdom about entrepreneurship, branding, and telling the story of your work.

Jude Charles is an author, filmmaker, and consultant. He helps entrepreneurs make money by using the power of storytelling. For over 15 years, he’s helped entrepreneurs bring their stories to life through documentary films. He digs deep to find the compelling story that no one else knows and then leverage storytelling to strategically scale their business. He’s been blessed to produce stories for Google, Coldwell Banker, and Steve Harvey (just to name a few). Plus he’s been featured as a speaker on conference stages and on 100+ different podcasts.

In this episode, Jude shares the real talk of becoming and staying an entrepreneur, how to tell powerful stories, and where to find the courage to tell your own.

“Relentless courage looks like the idea of just never giving up.”

    by | May 16, 2023 | Podcast, Success

    Here’s a story that will move you to new heights.

     

    I got emotional when I talked to today’s guest on the podcast — even though I already knew her story. She is an incredible woman and friend and I have loved learning from her in the past year about style, confidence, and choice.

    Sarah Foley is a transformation coach and keynote speaker who goes by Vertical Blonde. After experiencing life literally flipping her upside down from a debilitating ATV accident in 2012, Sarah learned how to experience the richness and beauty of life. She has been featured on major stages and platforms all over the US, including being featured multiple times on the Tony Robbins podcast and being featured in “Your Second Act” by Patricia Heaton. Sarah’s helped thousands of people of all abilities gain confidence, redefine what’s possible and become the icons they are.

    Today Sarah is passionate about guiding and witnessing the shift in others as they embrace their Vertical self.  She loves helping others feel beautiful from the inside out as she shares the tools and perspectives that help them understand that they are capable of experiencing their beautiful, rich and successful lives right now.

    In this episode, Sarah shares the incredible story of her life, her choices, her mission, and what is possible when you decide to become an icon, no matter what life gives you.

    ““We have a way of tapping into who we are based on where we’re going, not who we’ve been practicing being.”

      Podcast: EP 105 Coaching Conversations: Real talk on activating abundance, your worth, and permission for more

      Podcast: EP 105 Coaching Conversations: Real talk on activating abundance, your worth, and permission for more

      by | May 11, 2023 | Podcast, Self Care

      I did something special to celebrate 100 episodes on the podcast — this is part 2.

       

      A few weeks ago, I hosted an evening event called Coaching and Charcuterie — and that’s just what it was. I gathered with about 20 podcast listeners at my producer’s studio and we recorded a live Q&A style podcast episode where I coached guests in the hot seat about whatever they had questions on. It was so fun and I am already looking forward to the next time.

      In this episode, you’ll hear me coach guests on how to live in and think in abundance as well as a juicy question about aligning your public persona with who you really are. We talked for almost 2 hours, so I broke this special recording into two episodes – be sure to catch the first part in EP 104! And if you want to know about the next time I host this event, be sure to get on my email list and follow me on social media.

      If you feel the need for something to shift in your life, listen in.

       

      I met today’s guest at an event earlier this year and I loved her story and her mindset about intention and priorities. I read her book, loved it, and invited her on the show, because she has me thinking about minimalism in a new way. I have a feeling Samantha will have you re-thinking what is possible in your life too and I can’t wait for you to listen.
