Episode Notes: 

Have you spent your career bending, lifting, and grinding away in the collision & auto repair industry for years, only to find your body paying the steep price of demanding physical labor?

That's exactly what happened to me as I struggled with joint pain and the daunting prospect of inevitable surgery. But then, a breakthrough: I stumbled upon some education on the transformative power of regenerative medicine. Join me on this episode, as I pull back the curtain & reveal my candid tale of skepticism, discovery, and the early success of stem cell therapy, a journey that might just challenge everything you thought you knew about managing pain and recovering from injury.

Could it really be possible to do OEM repairs on our own bodies too?
 
 Through the lens of my own experience and the revolutionary insights of Tony Robbins' "Life Force," we'll explore the brave new world of alternative health options. From the crossroads of making tough health decisions to the thrill of witnessing the regenerative capabilities of stem cell treatments, this episode is an eye-opener for anyone in the auto repair industry—or any trade—suffering the physical consequences of their labor. More than just a story, it's a call to action: to weigh the risks, listen to your intuition, and consider how embracing the cutting edge of medical science could lead to a more vibrant, pain-free existence, without going under the knife!

Episode Notes: 

Ever walked away from a sales pitch feeling nothing but relief at the escape? 

That moment when a salesperson jumps into their spiel without understanding you is precisely what we're turning on its head. This episode we harness the magic of emotional connections to revolutionize the sales process. With over 30 years in the sales trenches, I'm sharing the secrets to building trust and fostering genuine relationships that not only boost sales but can bloom into lasting friendships. 

I’ll share the wisdom of wealth & motivational speaker T. Harv Eker, the author of Secrets of the Millionaire Mind as he reveals why it's crucial to do business with people who earn our trust, and why liking them makes all the difference.

T. Harv Eker shares an enlightening story about “Lenny”, a business owner who mastered the art of personal connection without even mentioning his products. It's a masterclass in rapport-building that led to an incredible success rate, and it's something any salesperson or entrepreneur can replicate. 

We also touch on top strategies by marketing gurus like Tony Robbins, emphasizing the sale of benefits and credibility over the product itself. The ultimate goal of this episode is, you'll walk away with actionable insights and the inspiration to inject heartfelt sincerity into your business interactions… to stop selling & start connecting… paving the way for more growth and quality connections!

Episode Notes: 

If you are part of this rapidly changing, constantly-challenging but extremely exciting & rewarding collision industry… shop owner, equipment manufacturer, vendor, technician or industry resource… you know exactly what season it is now, right?... the “conference & tradeshow season”.

Follow along on a transformative journey as I recount the game-changing insights gained from industry conferences and trade shows that are revolutionizing the collision industry. Picture yourself walking through the bustling halls of SEMA or sitting in on a panel session at CIC, where the latest innovations in tools and technologies aren't just on display but are dissected and demystified to ensure the safety and success of your business. This episode isn't simply about what's new in the world of ADAS and electric vehicle repairs; it's an invitation to step up and become an integral part of our industry's evolution.

I’ll share how a single keynote speech reshaped my outlook on personal growth, and learn why rubbing elbows at these conferences can skyrocket your operations and bottom line. I'll share tales of networking magic that can only happen in these collaborative spaces, where strategies and insider knowledge flow as freely as the coffee! 

Networking, is the magic that occurs within the conference halls. It's where strategies are exchanged, partnerships are forged, and one's operations can experience exponential growth. The narrative weaves through tales of networking success, offering a compelling case for why rubbing elbows with industry peers is more than a social exercise—it's a business imperative.

These events are not just showcases for the latest gadgets; they serve as pivotal forums for demystifying complex technologies, such as Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) and electric vehicle repairs. The message is clear: to thrive in the collision industry, one must be proactive in seeking knowledge and embracing change.

Join me as I commit to an ongoing quest for excellence and keep an eye on my social media for a roadmap to the most anticipated 2024 industry events—it's time we all raise the bar, together.

My conversation with Jeremy is more than a mere trip down memory lane—it's an eye-opener on the potential hazards of automotive refinishing. His first-hand account pinpoints the crucial moments where health concerns from paint fumes forced him to hit the brakes on his career as a painter. Yet, it was through these challenges that we uncover the serendipitous encounters and the robust network that steered Jeremy towards a path of industry relations and content creation. His gratitude towards fresh air systems, mentorship, and the evolution of workplace safety is palpable, and it underscores a message that resonates with every technician who has ever picked up a spray gun.

A chance conversation led to an unanticipated job opportunity with AccuDraft, where he now crafts content that supports and educates fellow painting technicians.

Episode Notes: 

Has that New-Year, New-You lie let you down in the past?

Do you usually find yourself fizzling out on your New Year's resolutions faster than a cheap sparkler on the Fourth of July? No judgment here—a staggering 80% of resolutions are in the same boat, but I’ve got a life-raft of strategies to keep your goals afloat all year long. In the newest MindWrench podcast episode, I’ll unleash the top 10 reasons why we often see our aspirations sink and how to turn that ship around. With a blend of personal stories of my own goals that have capsized in the past, I'm laying out a blueprint that will help keep your 2024 ambitions afloat.
 
 Strap in for this episode as I break down how setting Mount Everest-size goals without a sherpa can lead to an avalanche of disappointment, and why being as vague as a politician's promises won't get you to the finish line. You'll learn why a lack of planning is like setting sail without a compass and how flying solo without an accountability copilot might see your resolutions crash and burn before spring even blooms. 

So, if you're ready to transform your yearly pledges to true transformation, from fizzling fireworks to powerful progress, drop the same old New Years resolutions, and join me in starting the New Year's revolution with your goals steering steady and strong towards some real results!
