I have been coaching for a long time.
I realized (later than I’d like to have) that I needed a change. I love coaching, but people started hiring me as a consultant more than a coach. They wanted me to tell them what to do, and when I did they did not like it. I realize now more than ever that advisors need answers and solutions that they can’t find through coaching.Don’t get me wrong, I still believe deeply in the role a good coach plays in helping
advisorsevolve as professional and people - you can’t separate the two.So I sought out to immerse myself in whom I need to be for advisors to truly love working with me and to move forward in their businesses. So I took a hard look in the mirror. What do I want to do? Who am I now? You know all the questions I would ask you. Then I met Kirk Lowe.Kirk and I really hit it off. He is a marketing and branding guy, the best there is. I had never seen that level of creativity executed on the spot with such accuracy. Many advisors asked me to help them with their
marketingand branding, I was okay at it. Now was my chance to become a student again and learn from a master.
During this learning process, Kirk and I started attacking social media hard.
We started doing a podcast and have had amazing results. I had done radio since I was 13, I was back in the flow I wanted and needed. I was thinking on my feet again, being present with our guests, making them be the best podcasters they could be.I fell in love with podcasting and I am good at making people sound good. I’m good at asking questions, who’d have thought!

Social Media, and a Syndicated Podcasting service. (And we have had over 10,000 listens to our podcast.)
I am in charge of our Social Media department, a done for you complete social media service. We create custom content, help build your network, and find you new ideal connections.I am also the host of our podcast and I help advisors like you create your own podcast channel. If you want to get your thought leadership out to a demographic who has a lot of money and are delegators, podcasting is the way to get there.As much as I would love for all of my old clients to come on board with our social media and podcasting service, it is not for everyone. I just wanted to share the next chapter of my life with you.
