What if influence wasn’t about perfection, polish, or titles—but about energy, accountability, and how you show up for others?

In this episode of Daily Influence, host Gregg-Brooke Koleno sits down with Chris Starkey, partner at Mojo Maker and the personality behind Dance Dad TV, to explore what positive and responsible influence looks like in real life.

Chris shares his journey from performer and entrepreneur to purpose-driven leader, shaped by his daughter’s life-changing medical challenges and the special needs community that became his tribe. Through dance, storytelling, and intentional connection, Chris has built a community rooted in joy, inclusion, and momentum—both online and off.

Together, Gregg and Chris discuss:

• How accountability and humility strengthen influence

• Why emotional intelligence (EQ) matters more than ever in leadership

• Turning personal challenges into purpose-driven action

• Using energy, creativity, and consistency to uplift communities

• How giving—without expectation—creates impact that multiplies

This conversation is a reminder that influence lives in everyday moments: how we listen, how we include, and how we lead with intention.

Whether you’re a business owner, parent, creator, or community leader, this episode will encourage you to lean into connection and use your influence responsibly—one interaction at a time.

Listen in and take your daily dose of positivity.
