February 17, 2026 Shelley Failed, Prayed, and Won: A 23-Year Business Story | Sean Meyers | Ep. 194
In this powerful episode of the Level Up + Live Podcast, host Sean Meyers sits down with business owner and entrepreneur Shelley Guthrie for an honest conversation about faith, obedience, leadership, and the unseen journey behind long-term success.

Shelley recently celebrated 23 years in business, but her story is far from a smooth path. Behind the longevity are failed ventures, financial risks, hard decisions, and seasons of uncertainty that tested her resilience and her faith. In this episode, she shares what most people never see: the setbacks, the lessons learned the hard way, and the moments where trusting God became the difference between pushing forward and giving up.

Listeners will hear the powerful story of a single mother who opened her first business when her daughter was just three months old, built a company while raising three children, homeschooled during the early years, and learned how to navigate the constant tension between leadership, motherhood, and personal sacrifice.

Shelley also opens up about:

The reality behind business failures and how to move forward without fear

Why many entrepreneurs make costly decisions before seeking guidance or prayer

How a simple, honest prayer life can bring clarity and peace in leadership

The importance of relationships over transactions in building long-term customer loyalty

What she wishes she had done differently during the busiest seasons of her life

How learning to care for herself made her a better leader and mother

Beyond business, Shelley shares how mission work in Haiti transformed her perspective on success, gratitude, and service. What began as a trip to help others became a calling that has impacted her family, her business, and the lives of dozens of children. Through her salon and community support, more than $250,000 has been raised over the past 12 years to support an orphanage and create opportunities for families in need.

This episode is a reminder that leadership is not about titles, recognition, or growth at any cost. It is about obedience, consistency, service, and staying aligned with the purpose you are called to live out.

If you are an entrepreneur, business owner, parent, or leader navigating uncertainty, pressure, or the weight of responsibility, this conversation offers both encouragement and perspective. Success is not built on perfect decisions, it is built on faith, resilience, and a willingness to grow through every season.

Listen now to hear Shelley’s story and discover what it truly means to build a life, business, and legacy that lasts.

What if the real reason relationships fall apart isn’t cheating, money, or even conflict… but quietly growing in different directions?
In this raw, unfiltered, and unexpectedly hilarious episode of Level Up + Live, host Sean Meyers brings back the most requested guest of all time, his wife, Kendra Meyers, for their third appearance.
Together, they pull back the curtain on what it actually takes to grow together instead of drifting apart, while building businesses, leading teams, navigating faith, managing stress, and still liking each other at the end of the day.

The communication mistake almost every entrepreneur makes at home
What to do when one spouse is obsessed with growth… and the other isn’t
Faith, leadership, stress, exhaustion, and the real conversations couples avoid
The one weekly question that can change your marriage forever
No fluff. No fake perfection. Just two imperfect action-takers having the conversations most couples need but never have.
Fair warning: This episode might spark some uncomfortable (but necessary) conversations with your spouse.
Hit play. Share it with your partner. And ask yourself:
Are we growing together… or just growing?

January 20, 2026 25 Years Old & Built Different: Faith, Discipline, and the Pain That Creates Winners | Sean Meyers | Ep. 190
What happens when a 25-year-old entrepreneur refuses to coast, rejects comfort, and decides his 20s will be built, not wasted?

This Level Up + Live episode is a wake-up call.

Sean Meyers sits down with Branden Clay, founder of Harmony Marketing, to unpack what most people don’t realize until it’s too late: success isn’t about motivation, it’s about identity, discipline, and who you’re becoming under pressure.

Branden isn’t chasing hype. He’s chasing mastery.
A husband. A fitness-driven leader. A faith-forward entrepreneur.
And someone who openly admits: the path is painful, but that’s the point.

This conversation goes deep and pulls NO punches.

At just 25 years old, Branden shares insights most people don’t arrive at until their 40s, if ever. He breaks down how doing hard things on purpose, surrounding yourself with the right people, and embracing discomfort has become his unfair advantage in business and life.

Inside this episode, you’ll discover:

Why everything happening in your life is preparation, not punishment

The brutal truth about why most people stay stuck consuming content instead of producing results

How faith, fitness, and business discipline reinforce each other

Why comfort is the fastest way to kill your potential

The real reason small businesses fail at marketing in 2026

Why most marketing agencies overpromise and underdeliver, and how Harmony Marketing is different

How niching down unlocked massive momentum in Branden’s business

The mindset shift that keeps entrepreneurs from quitting too early

Why focusing on inputs over outcomes changes everything

⚠️ Warning: This episode will challenge you.
It will confront your excuses.
And it may force you to ask a hard question:
👉 Am I actually building the life I say I want, or just talking about it?

Sean and Branden dive into what it means to lead with ownership, live intentionally, and build something that lasts, without shortcuts, without fluff, and without hiding behind comfort.

💬 This isn’t just a podcast episode.
It’s a mirror for entrepreneurs, business owners, and anyone who knows they’re capable of more.

If you’ve ever felt behind… overwhelmed… or unsure if the grind is worth it.
🎧 Press play. Listen twice. And take notes.

Because this episode proves one thing loud and clear:
It’s not about your age. It’s about your standards.

January 06, 2026 Stop Being the Bottleneck: The Hard Truth About Leadership, Teams, and Growth | Sean Meyers | Ep. 188
What actually separates leaders who scale from those who stall?
Why do some teams take ownership… while others crumble under pressure?
And what happens when YOU are the bottleneck and don’t even know it?

In Part 2 of the Level Up + Live Entrepreneur Panel, host Sean Meyers sits down with powerhouse operators Michael David Reilly (The MD Brand Doctor), Cody Schneider (Aquarium Maintenance), and Micah Haarhoff (Revolution Power Sports) for a no-fluff, no-ego conversation that cuts straight through the noise.

Inside this episode, they tackle the questions most leaders are afraid to ask:

How to build a team that actually takes ownership (and stops waiting on you)

Why hiring for character over skill changes everything

The brutal truth about marketing in 2025, and what businesses must STOP doing now

What really breaks revenue plateaus (hint: it’s not more hustle)

Systems vs. people vs. leadership, what to fix first when things are struggling

How elite leaders stay grounded spiritually, mentally, and emotionally when the pressure is crushing

This isn’t theory. It’s lived experience from men who’ve hit ceilings, burned out, rebuilt, delegated, and learned the hard way, so you don’t have to.

If you’re an entrepreneur, business owner, or leader who:

Feels the weight of responsibility

Is tired of being the bottleneck

Wants growth without losing your soul, family, or faith

This episode will hit you right between the eyes.

You get one of the rawest, most practical leadership episodes we’ve ever released.

Host Sean Meyers is joined by the Level Up + Live leadership team, Cody Schneider, Micah Harhoff, and Michael David Riley (MD), for a no-fluff, high-impact roundtable Q&A straight from our members.

How they’re using AI without killing culture or trust

When to hire (even when you “can’t afford it”)

How much to REALLY spend on marketing

The biggest mistakes owners make when scaling too fast… or too slow

Why burnout, ego, and control quietly destroy businesses

This is not a theory.
This is battle-tested leadership from the trenches.

And just when the conversation hits full stride… they drop a cliffhanger and announce Part 2 is coming.

If you’re an entrepreneur, emerging leader, or business owner who’s serious about building something that lasts, this episode will hit different.
