  • Work You Love, Life You Design: The Power of Career Ownership | With Jamie Allen of The Entrepreneur’s Source

    What if the solution to your career frustration… isn’t a new job?

    Most people aren’t actually burned out.

    They’re misaligned.
    Trapped in a career that doesn’t reflect who they are — or who they want to become.

    This episode with Jamie Allen of The Entrepreneur’s Source offers a powerful alternative:

    Career Ownership™ — and the coaching that gets you there.

    Episode Highlights:

    • The 3 biggest reasons people feel stuck in their jobs
    • Why franchising isn’t just a business model — it’s a pathway to freedom
    • The role of clarity coaching in uncovering purpose
    • How to evaluate whether entrepreneurship is right for you
    • Why escaping your 9-5 isn’t the goal — alignment is
    • This is a must-listen for any professional who feels unfulfilled — but doesn’t know what else is possible. Especially if you’ve ever said: “I know I’m meant for more… I just don’t know what that is.”

        • Faith, Freedom, and Profit: Building a Christian Business | With Doug Greathouse of The Profitable Business Program

          Are you drifting through your calling — or building it on purpose?

          Most people don’t fail because they dream too big.

          They fail because they drift too small.

          In this episode, Doug Greathouse shares how he walked away from "safe success" — and followed God into something greater:

          • The 3 types of capital every entrepreneur must build
          • Why drifting is the enemy’s secret weapon
          • How your spiritual walk directly fuels business growth
          • Why purpose-driven profit isn’t sinful — it’s sacred
          • If you feel God pulling you toward more — but you’re stuck drifting — you need this conversation.

                        • Crafting Your Authentic Career Narrative | With Brad Wiens of Echo Canyon Career Coaching

                          Tired of ghosted resumes and lifeless job apps?

                          The problem isn't your experience — it's your story.

                          In this episode of The Making of a Coach, I sit down with career coach Brad Wiens from Echo Canyon Coaching to talk about:

                          • Crafting your Authentic Career Narrative
                            • Why motivation > qualifications in the eyes of hiring managers
                              • How to create your dream job description (before it exists)
                                • A 3-step system to land high-impact roles — even before they’re posted
                                • Brad has recruited for companies like Intel, IBM, and NXP… and he’s seen what separates the hired from the ghosted.

                                  If you’re in tech or engineering and feel stuck in a job you’ve outgrown — this is the episode that could change your career trajectory.

                                • Evolving on Purpose: Leadership, Loss, and the Power of Self-Awareness | With Mark Myers of Evolve Connection Partners

                                  Success isn’t the goal. Fulfillment is.

                                  Mark Myers had the career, the respect, the life. Then it all changed.

                                  After the loss of his wife, he was forced to confront a truth most men run from:

                                  Feelings matter. And you can’t lead others until you learn to lead yourself.

                                  This episode is a straight shot to the heart of what real leadership looks like:

                                  • Why self-awareness is a superpower
                                  • The “evolution” that men are terrified to talk about
                                  • How to redefine success on YOUR terms
                                  • Why emotional intelligence isn’t soft — it’s essential
                                  • This one’s raw, honest, and powerful. Every man needs to hear it.

                                    • Leadership that starts with YOU.
                                    • High performance without burnout.
