On this show, I like to interview folks who have created fun work for themselves to fuel their lifestyle. I'm excited to bring you my conversation with Read to Lead's podcast host Jeff Brown. Through one chapter of Jeff's life closing, he opened another opportunity for himself. And he did it through his experience in learning from books.

In 2013, Jeff Brown left behind a 26-year career in broadcasting and launched the Read to Lead Podcast, a podcast that would go on to become a Top 3 Career podcast in Apple Podcasts and receive, so far, four Best Business Podcast nominations. For nearly 9 years now, Jeff has published weekly interviews with some of the world's most successful and inspiring authors, totaling over four-hundred episodes.

The show's success eventually led to the publication of his own book called Read to Lead: The Simple Habit That Expands Your Influence and Boosts Your Career. Reviews for the book average 4.9 stars on Amazon and it has ranked in the Top 3 on Amazon for Career Guides.

Through his virtual and in-person speaking and workshops, Jeff evangelizes leaders and teams on the benefits of lifelong learning and professional development and has recently accepted invitations to speak from leaders at LinkedIn, Disney, the National Speakers Association, UPS, Docket, Anvl, and the Virginia Council of CEOs.

Maintaining a consistent production schedule can be hard if you don't have your systems down. In this episode, I share my 7-phase implementation process when it comes to podcast production.

Chunking down a big project like producing a podcast is important in order to move forward. Chunking down the podcast production project must be drilled down to one step at a time, one episode at a time. You must keep your "why" you want to be a podcaster in your line of sight because implementation is hard, but with the right systems, it doesn't have to be.

Here's the 7-phases of implementation that my team and I go through for each podcast episode for this show as well as for our clients shows. Listen to the episode for a deeper explanation of each phase as it pertains to podcast production.

Phase 1: Plan

Phase 2: Create

Phase 3: Edit

Phase 4: Design

Phase 5: Schedule

Phase 6: Verify

Phase 7: Report

You may do every single phase yourself or delegate some pieces.

Intellectual property is a heavy subject. IP attorney, Steven Thrasher, joins the show and breaks this complicated subject down in an easy-to-understand way.

He's known for helping create his client's intellectual property fortress. Steven is an engineer, inventor, entrepreneur, and attorney. When he was in college, he had a cool idea for an invention and had a terrible experience when it came to figuring out the patent process. The way I see it, he was scammed for a whole lot of money and his invention still wasn't protected.

Because of this experience, he was bound and determined to help other budding entrepreneurs avoid feeling the way he did about his intellectual property… lost and unprotected.

He went to law school to learn more about the nuances of IP law and has created his own system helping small businesses with protecting their inventions and intellectual property.

He stops competitors from stealing your customers and keeps your online business from being the victim of a take-down notice or copyright troll attack. He does this while running marathons, hiking up mountains on remote continents, and building his own online businesses and information products.

If you see him on a laptop at the rim of the Grand Canyon, he just might be in the middle of working on all of these.

My conversation with Steven was full of great info of not only what we should be aware of when it comes to intellectual property, but also a peek behind the scenes of why he chose to leave a big law firm in lieu of creating his own firm.

In this episode you'll learn:

• What the differences are between trademarks, copyrights, and intellectual property
• The two important buckets of consideration when it comes to intellectual property
• The biggest mistake most people make when it comes to protecting their intellectual property
