#580 Benjamin is a business and transformation coach who has realized that the foundation your business is built on is often as important as—if not more important than—how you execute on things. In today's episode, he'll be covering three topics: why your intuition matters, how to follow it, and the action steps that will help you create the outcomes you desire with the help of your intuition.

He’s going to give us some of his best business advice.

Daniel Allison is a bestselling author and oral storyteller. He's going to share a simple yet profound story from Borneo, and along the way he'll stop to discuss how it might apply to your life, your hero's journey. And he'll give you some tools you can use when looking at other stories.

#577 One of the most common questions I get is, “Pat, do you have a business coach? You coach a lot of people. You have a podcast. You help tens of thousands of people. Do you get help, too?” Absolutely. I think it’s massively important, and today you get to hear from somebody I get weekly coaching from. His name is James Schramko, from SuperFastBusiness. Today we talk about simplification. We talk about lifestyle design, and using your business as the mechanism to design the life you want.

#576 This episode is another Teaching Friday, where we bring in members of our SPI Pro community to teach us about a topic in their area of genius! Today, Dr. Michael Gerharz of Leaders Light the Path shares why it's so important to “light the path” for your audience, so you're not trying to persuade harder, but instead resonating stronger. He shares the three steps you need to take to do that: getting clarity about what you want to be known for, answering the three questions any audience wants answered, and understanding why anyone would want to follow us along the path we've lit for them.

#575 Today I’m joined by Donald C. Kelly. Donald is known as The Sales Evangelist, and his new book Sell It Like a Mango is going to teach us how to close more deals. When I asked why it’s called Sell It Like a Mango, Donald told me about how his parents used to sell mangoes in Jamaica, and how everybody else was also selling mangoes. If everyone’s selling the same thing, how do you succeed? How do you stand out? We’re gonna dive into that today and learn exactly how to become a salesperson whether you have a unique product or not.
