  • Meet Them Where They Are: Building Relationships Through Equity | RR337

    In this episode, I’m joined by Celeste Warren, internationally recognized Diversity, Equity & Inclusion leader and author of The Truth About Equity: What It Really Is, What It Isn’t, and Why Everyone Wins When We Get It Right.

    After decades leading DEI at a global corporation, Celeste now helps organizations of all sizes, especially small businesses, reshape how they think about equity. Our conversation explores what DEI looks like without a big HR team or corporate budget, and how equity can be a relationship-building tool rather than a checklist.

    Celeste shares her rock-and-fence analogy to explain equity in the clearest, most practical way I’ve heard, and we talk about the power of self-discovery, trust, and dialogue in creating more inclusive relationships at work and beyond.

    Key Takeaways

    • Equity isn’t equality: it’s about giving people what they need to succeed and removing barriers so everyone can thrive.
    • Relationship building begins with discovery: learning about others and yourself at the same time.
    • Small actions create big change: inclusive leadership often starts with noticing, listening, and amplifying overlooked voices.
    • Representation matters: Celeste’s non-profit, Destination STEM, helps students of color see what’s possible in science and technology careers.
    • Everyone wins with equity: when we lead with inclusion, we strengthen our businesses, our communities, and our human connections.

  • The Human Side of Influence: Why Emotion Always Wins | RR 336

    If you want to connect and influence others authentically, you need to understand the part of the brain that makes every decision. In this episode, I sit down with Tim Ash, bestselling author of Unleash Your Primal Brain and co-author of Primal Dating, to explore how our primal brain still runs the show in business, marketing, and leadership today.

    Tim shares why emotion, not logic, drives every choice we make, and how this understanding can help us lead, market, and communicate with more empathy and purpose. We also talk about culture, belonging, and the importance of purpose as a compass for every decision.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Emotion always wins. Every decision starts with feeling; logic only justifies it later.
    • Inaction is the brain’s default. To move people, create emotional urgency, not pressure.
    • Culture is built through connection. True culture happens in shared challenges and genuine modeling.
    • Purpose guides direction. Having a bigger-than-you purpose clarifies your yeses and nos.
    • Relationships are everything. We are wired to bond through shared experiences, not transactions.

    Tim’s thoughtful, science-based approach to influence reminds us that connection begins where emotion lives. Understanding the brain helps us build trust in ways that are natural, ethical, and deeply human.

  • From Words to Revenue: Using Brand Voice to Attract Aligned Clients | RR335

    Have you ever read your own website or LinkedIn post and thought, “That doesn’t sound like me at all”? I know I have.

    This week on Relationships Rule, I sit down with Patricia Viscount — a brand voice strategist and former Canadian Army officer — who helps professionals find their true voice in business. Patricia believes your real advantage isn’t in fancy words or perfect grammar… it’s in sounding like yourself.

    We talk about why so many people lose their natural voice when they write, how AI can actually help you stay authentic (when you use it correctly), and why your clients’ words might be the best copy you’ll ever have.

    If your content feels stiff or too “professional,” this conversation will help you loosen up, sound more genuine, and connect more easily with the people you want to reach.

    Listen in to discover:

    • The simple way to catch “robot-speak” in your writing
    • How to use AI tools without losing your voice
    • Why consistency across all your messages builds real trust
    • Listen now and get ready to sound more like yourself — because that’s where real connection starts.

  • The Truth About Confidence with TEDx Speaker Nina Perez | RR334

    What if confidence wasn’t something you had to fake, but something you could feel?

    In this episode, I reconnect with the lovely and wise Nina Perez; transformation coach, TEDx speaker, and someone I’ve had the pleasure of knowing for years. We talk about the real roots of confidence, and why the old “fake it till you make it” advice can actually backfire. Nina shares her journey from being a self-described shy girl to stepping into the spotlight, not by pretending to be someone else, but by learning to feel confident from the inside out.

    We also explore how small, everyday habits (Nina calls them “micro-habits”) help you show up as your most grounded, magnetic self, whether you are leading a team, speaking to an audience, or just trying to feel good in your own skin. I especially loved her perspective on using body language and storytelling to create genuine connection, and how she helps clients balance both warmth and authority.

    This is a conversation full of “aha” moments, some great stories, and practical wisdom for anyone who wants to lead with presence, not performance.

    What you’ll hear in this episode:

    • Why confidence is something you practice, not perform
    • The real reason “fake it till you make it” doesn’t work, and what to do instead
    • What micro-habits can do for your daily energy and presence
    • How storytelling builds trust faster than facts ever will
    • Why everyone has charisma. It’s just about finding your unique flavor

  • What To Do When Motivation Won’t Show Up with Robin J. Emdon | RR333

    Stop chasing motivation and build momentum you can count on.

    I sit down with Robin J. Emdon, the procrastination slayer, to unpack his GetResultsology framework for solopreneurs and business owners. Robin explains why procrastination isn’t about laziness but about how our brains are wired, and he shows how to spot it before it takes hold. Together we explore his productivity trifecta of brain chemistry, the power of micro-deadlines, and why accountability works best when it creates support instead of pressure. You’ll hear how breaking projects into 10-minute wins builds confidence, how routines and structure reduce overwhelm, and why connecting daily actions to your bigger life vision makes progress inevitable.

    Highlights:

    Catch procrastination before it starts - Learn a quick self-check to notice when you’re slipping into “I’ll do it tomorrow,” and how to redirect in the moment.

    Use the Productivity Trifecta - Understand dopamine (the conductor), acetylcholine (the scholar), and noradrenaline (the fun-size warrior) so your brain is set up for focus and follow-through.

    Make structure do the heavy lifting - Pre-decide routines, add accountability for feedback not pressure, and use micro-deadlines to shrink overwhelm.

    Turn big projects into bite-size wins - Chunk work into small steps, set near-term hurdles, and apply the Pomodoro approach to build momentum daily.

    Lead with life vision, not just goals - Tie today’s tasks to a clear life vision so chores become stepping stones, not stress triggers.

  • How to Use Relationships to Scale Impact with Sir Darren Jacklin | RR332

    The fastest path to growth is through relationships; especially those that hold you accountable to your word.  

    I had the privilege of sitting down with Sir Darren Jacklin, a global business leader and philanthropist, whose journey from being labeled a throwaway kid to building international companies is a testament to the power of integrity. Darren shares why keeping your word creates unstoppable credibility, how he tests potential partners (on hiking trails of all things), and the simple but powerful requests that open doors you never thought possible. 

    What impressed me most is Darren’s unwavering commitment to service—acquiring businesses not just for profit, but to fund his mission of building schools worldwide.  

    In this conversation, you’ll learn how to raise your standards, make better asks, and transform connections into meaningful collaborations. His wisdom is both practical and inspiring, showing exactly how business growth and lasting impact can go hand in hand. 

    Highlights: 

    1. Integrity that scales - How keeping your word, reputation, and credibility becomes a career flywheel—and the three structures Darren uses to protect them. 
    2. Requests that get results - A simple “make the ask” framework so people either accept, decline, or counter—without you taking it personally. 
    3. Vetting partners in the wild - Why Darren takes prospects hiking to read true behavior, reduce risk, and spot red flags before deals. 
    4. From broke to builder - How micro-commitments, mentors, and accountability reversed an R9 credit rating and set the stage for acquisitions. 
    5. Rolling up “boring” businesses - Why acquiring bookkeeping and tax firms creates predictable revenue—and how that fuels his goal to fund 1,000 schools.

  • What to Say When You Don’t Know What to Say with Tammy J. Cohen | RR331

    Small messages can create big connection wins. My guest Tammy J. Cohen discovered this truth by sending short, heart-centered texts to her adult sons, a practice that rebuilt trust at home and later inspired her book, Text Messages to My Sons.

    In our conversation, Tammy shares how simple daily actions translate into stronger family bonds, clearer brand messaging, and more authentic networking. You’ll hear why meeting people where they are, writing like a human, and practicing gratitude can transform not just your communication but the relationships that matter most.

    Highlights:

    The Power of Daily Texts - Hear how Tammy’s short, love-filled messages reshaped her connection with her sons and gave them confidence without expectation of reply.

    Meeting People Where They Are - Learn why your audience’s preferred channel matters more than your own comfort zone.

    Owning Your Brand - Discover why Tammy says, “You’re the brand,” and how integrity and accountability are the foundation of trust.

    Networking with Intention - Explore Tammy’s Women Beyond the Table community and how real curiosity can turn strangers into allies.

  • From Stage Fright to Stage Trust with Michele Vilseck | RR 330

    Speaking isn’t about saying the right words. It’s about making people feel you. When I sat down with Michele Vilseck, she showed me how her RAW method—Real, Audacious, Withness—can transform the way we show up on stage, on video, or even in a simple conversation.

    We talked about why nerves often get in the way, how to flip the focus from yourself to your audience, and why practice beats perfection every time. Michele shared simple structures that make your message stick, and she even offered a fun 100-video challenge that builds confidence faster than any script. If you’ve ever wondered how to sell without feeling salesy or speak without losing your spark, this is one you won’t want to miss.

    Highlights:

    Real > Performance - Learn how aligning voice, values, and story makes you magnetic without memorizing every line.

    Audacity Builds Trust - See how specific, felt details and safe vulnerability deepen connection and make talks unforgettable.

    Withness, Not Witness - Shift focus from “How am I doing?” to “What do they need right now?” to calm nerves and sell naturally.

    Speak to One, Win Many - Use workshops and stages to remove pressure from 1:1 pitching and invite the right people to act.

    Structure That Sticks - Open with “Is this for me?”, then show the transformation, the how, and why it will work for them.

  • Writing from the Heart in a Digital World with Elizabeth H. Cottrell | RR329

    A handwritten note can do what an email never will, it can change a life.

    I loved every minute of this warm-hearted conversation with Elizabeth H. Cottrell, author of Heartspoken: How to Write Notes That Connect, Comfort, Encourage, and Inspire. Elizabeth is a champion for authentic connection, and we explored how meaningful, handwritten notes create ripples of kindness, build relationships, and even drive business success. Whether you’re expressing gratitude, sympathy, or encouragement, writing from the heart is a radical, personal act that sets you apart in a noisy world. We discussed her NOTES formula, ways to personalize even simple thank-you cards, and how professionals, especially in corporate and sales, can rethink note-writing as a relationship-building tool, not a chore.

    Highlights:

    1. The Power of One Note - How a single heartfelt letter changed a grieving mother’s life—and Elizabeth’s mission forever.

    2. NOTES: A Simple Framework for Better Writing - Elizabeth breaks down her N.O.T.E.S. formula to help you write more personal and impactful notes.

    3. Business Meets Heart - Why handwritten notes aren’t just for thank-you cards—they’re tools for trust and client loyalty.

    4. Digital vs. Handwritten: Is There Room for Both? - A thoughtful take on when to use digital notes, and when pen-to-paper still matters most.

    5. Writing as Mindfulness - Discover how slowing down to write by hand can boost clarity, connection, and personal growth.
