When trying to promote your business online, do you ever feel like what you’re putting out there just isn’t resonating with people?
It’s likely due to one of a two things:
You aren’t clear on your personal brand
You aren’t working on attracting your best-fit client
In other words, you either don’t truly know your perfect client, or you don’t truly know YOU.
What do we mean by this? Well, each business is one of 12 archetypes. And each of those archetypes actually has a perfect fit client of a different (in fact, an OPPOSITE) archetype.
Our guest, Yamilca Rodriguez, is a business brand therapist, and she’s here to give you a crash course about how to attract super-fan level clients through clear, consistent, and archetype-informed branding!
Listen in to get a birds eye view of what the archetypes are as well as:
Learn how deeply you should know your personal brand, and the things to consider when building it
Discover how the social science of “opposites attract” works in business and how you can use this understanding to find raving clients
The importance of clarity and authenticity in your marketing
And so much more.

You’ve probably heard a variety of mindset experts talk about how most of our beliefs are rooted in the stories we tell ourselves. This means if we can change the stories we tell ourselves, we can change our beliefs, and by extension, change our results.

She even demonstrates how this works live with Wojo!
And guess what? As Risa says, it only takes doing this a handful of times for your brain to start catching up, and the positive changes start occurring like a domino effect.
So whatever beliefs you are struggling with:
I’m not extraverted enough
I’m not as smart as other people who do what I want to do
I don’t have the resources
I don’t have the time
I don’t have anything original to add
…You’re about to make a new narrative.

Jamie Gilleland was living the American dream (from making lots of money, to the house in Hilton Head) until tragedy struck. After being told she only had 6 months to live, she was determined to do what it took to survive, recover, and rebuild a crumbling life and business.
And that’s exactly what she did. It’s been 16 years since rock bottom, and Jamie has a business that can run while she’s hands-off. She’s been able to make a Lifeonaire style life complete with vacations, time with her family, and more.
Her story is full of shocking twists and turns that she shares in this motivating and insightful interview. But the most fascinating thing you’ll notice when you listen is that Jamie didn’t have anything easy. She had tons of factors against her, which means it was her attitudes and approaches that carried her where she is today (approaches she shares today that you too can implement).
Here’s just some of the gold she covers:
How to break out of the trap of “I can do this task in less time that it would take me to train someone.”
How creating simple systems can make it so you can step away from your business (whether for an extended vacation or an emergency, systems gift you this freedom)
Who to hire first
Why you don’t want to be the smartest person in the room when it comes to your team
What took look for in potential hires to set yourself up to have a team of rockstars
How to set your team up for maximum efficiency and having each of your team members at their highest and best use.
Get ready to be inspired to take all your “I can’t”s and turn them into “how can I”s.
You can get in touch with Jamie by emailing her at Jamie@misyte.com or booking a call with her at MeetWithJamieG.com
We’ve all been here:
We’ve wanted to change something in our lives (our health, our spending habits, our time on our phones, etc), but we just can’t seem to break it.
Often, we will make significant progress for a few days or weeks then we find ourselves slipping up, and next thing we know, we are back where we started.
Why does this happen? And how can we shatter this cycle?
This week, Jason Wojo and Polish Peter dive into Tony Robbins’ principle of the 7 Master Steps, which are essentially 7 steps to creating change that will LAST.
In one way or another, these are the steps that anyone who is able to take the reins in their habits are using. If you too want this high level of agency in your life so you can FINALLY break free from the things that rob you of your time, resources, and health, grab a pen and paper and listen in.

When he first joined Lifeonaire, Ned Carey felt like his life was alright…so he thought. But in reality, he was struggling. He knew something was wrong, but he couldn’t put his finger on it.
Ned got to the point where he felt like he was in a deep well where no matter how far he climbed, it felt like he was never getting closer to the top, which seemed like hundreds and hundreds of feet away.
Perhaps you relate to Ned.
Since then, everything’s changed. He’s here to share about how he got out of the well he was in, and how you too can get out of yours, and into a life of joy, hope, and fulfillment.
He shares some incredibly effective perspective shifts, but the root of what he shares is less about simple hacks and much more about the foundation that can be monumental in helping you turn things around, including:
Being patient, tenacious, and grateful in the journey (because all though it can seem long, your progress is far more substantial than you often realize)
Surrounding yourself with a loving support system
And then some.
If you are like Ned was today, you’re not alone. We hope this episode is encouraging and serves as a reminder that there’s a community full of Lifeonaires ready to walk alongside you. Feel free to reach out to us or join us on our private Facebook group at bit.ly/lifeonaire-community to get connected.
When she was young, Cori Fonville Foster was diagnosed with a rare incurable disease that would ultimately lead to her becoming blind.
Once she was essentially told to “go home and go blind,” Cori was devastated. She had a future planned out in the medical field that had just been completely shattered.
But she decided to take her future into her own hands. Regardless of her impending future, she knew she wanted to help people, and she was determined to make that happen, just in a different way.
Fast forward to today, and Cori is now the CEO of IROC Marketable Business Solutions where she helps small business owners get to the next level.

Are you waiting for a sign from God?
Do you wish you had the courage to take that leap of faith that challenges your need for security?
Do you long to know what actions God wants you to take, but you struggle to discern His voice from your own?
This week, we have Shae Bynes, author of Grace Over Grind, on the show for a second time to share about how you can tap into the ways God nudges you towards your greatest potential.
By practicing inviting God into all her decisions (personal and business) Shae has developed such a keen attunement to the Holy Spirit that she’s been able to do some radical things, including quitting her job and starting a business that challenged HER plans, but aligned with GOD’S plans.
This way of life has been so transformational for her that she’s written several books and touched over a million leaders around the world through her content. So if you’re waiting for that sign, buckle up. Get ready to discover how to experience the guidance of God every single day.

Over the course of our careers, we have many bosses, many co-workers, many clients, or many business partners…
But we only have one family.
Yet, many times, we find ourselves bending over backwards to appease the people we work with, despite the fact we could be replaced at work and forgotten about at any moment.
Cory M Carlson recognized this problem. He saw the pressure many of us are under to succeed at work and the cost it often entails on our lives at home. He even saw it in his own life.
After years of coaching leaders and entrepreneurs through changing their lives and writing his book Winning at Home First, he’s here to share his secrets!
Cory digs into:
The journey of getting out of the corporate world (and how it’s often a step-by-step, methodical ease-out rather than one day quitting your job)
How to overcome the temptation to get ahead at work, or take advantage of career opportunities (and how to choose your kid’s soccer game over the networking happy hour)
How to balance heavier seasons at work with intentional time with the family
Tricks for reframing your work mindset so you can expertly diffuse the many pressures that come with trying to move up the ladder or build your business
How you can have both the great career or business AND the great family life
This discussion provides so much clarity in the storm that is trying to navigate the work-life balance. And not only is Cory’s journey a token example of these life-changing Lifeonaire-like principles at work, they can work for you too!

There are LOADS of real estate investing models out there. Many claim you’ll “get rich quick” or that you can build a passive income stream with little to no effort.

We have a VERY special episode today, because Jason Wojo and Polish Peter went live to share about something that can drastically change how quickly you can solve your biggest problems and experience your biggest dreams.
They’ve revealed the top 5 mistakes they see people make then they try to create their Visions.
Peter and Wojo have walked thousands of people through this process, so they’re experts in helping people get out of their own way so they can ACTUALLY have the life they want (instead of feeling stalled out by a vague notion of how to have an incredible life.)
So if you:
Don’t understand how a Vision could help you
Feel like you have an idea in your head of what you want in your life, but you feel like you never get any closer to achieving it
Are beat down by an exhausting job, or a failing relationship, or simply feeling like you never have time to really enjoy life
Are fired up about having a life full of financial and time freedom, and you want to get there as fast as possible
Then listen in! And don’t stop there…

Ex-legendary-body-builder Peter Putnam not only excelled at one impressive endeavor, but he made a massive career pivot into something totally unexpected: MUSIC!
…How? Why?
Peter’s story is a fascinating one of pursuing what really matters in life, something we all long to do more of. Wouldn’t you like the freedom to just shift gears and follow where your heart is guiding you? Or wouldn’t you like the courage to let go of the security of what you have now to dedicate more time to what’s important (maybe it’s family, or traveling, or hobbies that you love so much, you lose track of time when you’re doing them).
We all could benefit from thinking a little more like Peter. That’s why we have him on the show this week so we can get in the head of someone that doesn’t let ANYTHING get in the way of pursuing what matters. So if you’re stuck in the weeds, losing time for the things you love, or needing some encouragement to do something scary, this one’s meant for you!

Do you have a habit or coping mechanism that you wish you could break away from but can’t seem to figure out how? Maybe it’s substances, or snacking, or scrolling on social media.
Whatever your vice is, Lora Harris is here to share her inspirational story about how she severed her ties with alcohol, a decision that massively changed her entire life. Now, she’s 4 years sober, and as she says in the episode, she’s doing things she never would have thought possible!
Even if your coping mechanism isn’t alcohol, this message is truly for everyone because Lora covers:
What catalysts need to occur in order for you to finally see results in changing your habits (because you can probably related to the many failed attempts that often come from trying to change a vice; her insight may give you clarity on how to break this cycle)
How to navigate the identity shift that might happen when you make this decision
Hope for the life you can have on the other side of what’s holding you back
And then some. So if you are held back by ANY bad habit (big or small) get ready to be inspired by someone who has overcome theirs. You can too!
We’ve been seeing it all over the news for months (even years):
“Times are tough.”
From the economy to politics to maybe even some personal challenges you might be facing, it might seem like the bad news never stops flooding in. As Lifeonaires, how can we prepare ourselves for this and live abundantly?
In this episode, Wojo and Peter explore how to approach difficulties with mindsets and strategies that will help you master the art of riding the ebbs and flows of life. They cover:
Don’t continue to let fear get in your way! Grab a pen and paper and get ready to have some mindsets and strategies for not just surviving in these times, but THRIVING!
Your attitude can help you reach your greatest potential. In fact, this week, our guest demonstrates what happens when you approach life with an attitude of charity, curiosity, and more. We have Calvin Crosslin (VP of HR, Chief Diversity Officer AND President of the Lenovo Foundation at Lenovo) to share the secret sauce for success!
Calvin has a heart for giving and a zest for learning. That’s why you’ll want to listen to this one very carefully because Calvin talks about a variety of different game-changers he’s discovered about leadership and getting the most out of your relationships with others (in both ideal and non-ideal situations).
If you take on some of the approaches he shares, it’s going to help you tremendously in several different avenues including business, your personal life, and so much more.
Have you ever had a moral failure that you felt you couldn’t come back from? Or have you ever had someone you loved or looked up to make a mistake that felt unforgivable?
This week’s episode covers a heavy topic that many of us will experience through our own actions or others’ (if not already). Our guest this week, Mike Lee, was a pastor of a large church until he had an affair. And he’s here to tell his story about everything he’s learned from this failure, from how to pick up the pieces of your life when you make a big mistake, to how to treat someone who has made a big mistake and is trying to rectify it.
We want to emphasize that we are in no way condoning affairs and similar actions, or excusing behavior. We believe this is an important conversation to have because we want to provide help to you as a listener for times like these. You may be wondering: is God done with me yet? How should I treat someone who did something I don’t condone? How should we as Christians take failure in our leadership? Can I walk with someone who is trying to be a new person after messing up without excusing their actions? These are the tough questions we want to shed light on.
Are you struggling to get out of the weeds in your business?
The good news is every business owner who is now able to enjoy the time and financial freedom that comes with their endeavors was once in your shoes. They just had the keys to help them get out of the woods.
That’s why on this special episode, we have the CEO of the most successful marketing and automation software on the line: Clate Mask! He’s going to share the essential mindsets and strategies he used to get his business where it’s at now (running smoothly with over 125,000 clients).
Clate pulls back the curtain on:
Clate is a GOLD MINE of ideas, so if you have a struggling business, or you want to take yours to the next level, or if you’re a leader in your career, buckle up, and get ready to shoot from surviving to thriving!

Brian Trippe was going through the tragedy of divorce, and it put him in a very dark place. Perhaps you can relate.
When it happened, Brian had a decision to make. He could turn to indulgences to try to numb the pain (drinking, sitting at home alone, stress eating, drugs) but he chose a different route….After seventeen years of a sedentary lifestyle, he made a decision to go on a walk.
Three years later, Brian is an Ironman Triathlon athlete!
And he’s here to share about how to make decisions that will lead you towards the positive and away from the negative so you can benefit from good health, mental strength, aligned priorities, and an overall ability to navigate whatever comes your way.
In this packed interview, Brian covers:
If you feel stuck in the grip of tragedy or the pull of negative influences in your life, don’t go anywhere. Brian's insight has something to offer anyone who is struggling.
Have you ever experienced the power of loving what you do? Or a strong WHY?
Getting in this flow state is like having a superpower. You can overcome just about ANYTHING with it.
That's why we have a guest on this week who has mastered riding the motivation of passion: Ned “Peanut” Brown (skateboarder turned motorcycle racer turned business owner) became a skateboarding legend and built success in numerous endeavors by approaching life this way.
In this inspirational episode, in addition to his moving stories, Ned covers:
And so much more.
As Peter says at the end of this episode, if you don't have "can't" in your vocabulary, you'll find a way. Regardless of what comes your way (recession, divorce, illness) approaching life this way can help you keep getting back up no matter what happens. Let this episode be motivating for you to tackle life with confidence!
If you own a small business, you may have experienced a time of steady growth followed by a discouraging period of stagnation.
You’re not alone.
In fact, nearly all businesses go through observable “Growth Stages” that are due to shift at specific revenue levels.
This means that you as the leader have the power to launch your business out of being stalled out and into its next phase of growth. But how?
We have David Gilliland of Elite Entrepreneurs to share loads of priceless information on these ebbs and flows of business and how to navigate them. He covers:

Before discovering Lifeonaire, Tim and Stephanie Truong were struggling, both in ways they were and weren’t aware of. Tim was the dreamer; Stephanie was realistic. They struggled with communicating, they weren’t a team, and they seemed to be constantly pulling in opposite directions of each other. Maybe you and your partner can relate.
Now, they are unrecognizably different!
Since joining Lifeonaire, they’ve become a unified team. With the help of their coaches (which Stephanie refers to as their “translators and referees” for each other) they have grown massively and continue to progress towards their Vision and towards an even stronger relationship. In fact, Tim and Stephanie’s transformation have inspired so many that they were voted the 2022 Lifeonaire Students of the Year by the entire Lifeonaire community!
This is a free-flowing conversation that touches on many different ways coaching can impact people as individuals and as couples to help them reach potentials even greater than they ever imagined. Join us and listen for the elements that resonate with you, because there’s something relatable for everyone in Tim and Stephanie’s journey.
One of the simplest ways to make more sales is for your past customers to buy from you again. But how can you take advantage of this potential that might be untapped in your business? How do you maintain relationships with clients without creating mountains of work for yourself or your team?
Mychal Edelman from Keap Academy is a business growth expert. His skill-set is in helping small business owners (perhaps like yourself) expand through resources like automation.
