So what’s your story? How do you use your superpowers?

Taking it from business planning to brand development, Miri Rossitto at COWE Communications is helping people put their vision on paper and create an actual plan for execution.

You can have an idea and practice it – but unless you act on it and move forward with it – it doesn’t matter. You know that “list” that grows and grows - What if I told you Miri can help execute that dream – or realistically a vision and see it thru…

Most businesses think about sales, how many likes on LinkedIn or IG, all this stuff – is it important yes – but people ignore the brand. Is your brand distinct and clear?

She guides us on how to funnel energy to people's strengths and organizations that understand that, create a culture and environment that fuels the entire mission of the organization.

Let's dive in and get granular…

What is your legacy, impact, and super strength?

What is it you want to accomplish??

It’s the experience – energy attracts. Tune in, Miri is magic!

 For the last 2 years or so we have experienced so many ups and downs, silver linings, wins, and losses. Kinda crazy actually…

Really makes it difficult to measure success. As we enter this new world of flexibility, digital mayhem, and hybrid lifestyles -we chat about the many definitions of what success really means.

I had the privilege to chat with Pamela Robins- finally got her in my podcast chair!!! Her entrepreneurial spirit, ability to evolve and keep creating successful ventures has brought her the happiness, freedom, and accomplishment she has always had an appetite for.

Join me in celebrating her multitude of levels of success on my latest episode.

We chat with John Rugg today from Sawtelle Sake; Japanese inspired and California made.

It all started when his partner Troy Nakamatsu did an experiment because he was challenged by his coworker to make his own Korean rice drink called Makgeolli – a more crude version of sake. The competitive edge came out and before they knew it Sawtelle Sake was born...

Taking it from grassroots with friends and family, launching during the pandemic, juggling a brand new family -  to a legit sake brewery and an established clientele.

Jon gives advice on starting a business, growth, and how not to be afraid to ask for help and talk to people to build your team. Forming partnerships was everything!!

Cheers to good health, good company, and good luck from Los Angeles.

In this episode of Level Up, Hallie and Didier Pariente at Nomadic Distributions are here to conquer and provide a wealth of knowledge when it comes to the import business of Moroccan, Organic, and Sustainable Wines. They started in 2004 with a love for wine – and ran with the idea.

Their nomadic wine tasting truly takes you around the world. Here we learn about taking risks in starting a new business, the market crash in 2009, growth and expansion to producing wines with no additives, regenerative farming, and small producers who are very dedicated to their craft. Original story tellers for sure.

One of my favorite things is to constantly travel and expand – we did this today through the vines of the wine. Cheers!!!

Spoiler alert: The Croatian wine was my favorite of all of the tastings.

Is your passport ready???

Today’s episode we have Mark Rodriguez CEO and Founder of Mastermynd Media as our guest.   As this digital era continues to soar we have to think about where is the highest return of investment with your time, staying at the forefront of the attention, using these powerful social media tools (Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Tiktok, Twitter, You Tube, Spotify, Apple), and authentically getting out of our comfort zone to build our business personality which ultimately is our differentiating factor.  

Mark teaches you how to get out of your own way and shine!! If you’re just starting, get started. Take that first step. Really think it through and create the value you want people to know – ultimately creating that business personality. Being truthful and honest about the high and lows in life.  Basically, while you’re busy being yourself, you attract like minded people. Now all of a sudden you’re a connector, a resource, an influencer!    

Could social media be the new cold calling?

Our guest today is one of my highlights so far - With over 23 years of practicing Yoga inspired by Love, Music and Travels, 12 years at her Agoura power of yoga studio, new website launch and You Tube channel Drorit Pobuta @droritpobutayoga has been an invaluable community resource for those who are interested in living a more meaningful life, improving their yoga form, or simply having some fun! Drorit takes joy in leading classes, workshops, retreats and meditations…  My goal with this episode and this podcast is to change the whole paradigm of “success”. The next time you get on the yoga mat, I want you to challenge the way you look at failure. I challenge you to see your failures in a new light to give you the guidance you need to keep moving forward with your practice. Success is what you get from yoga practice when you learn something about yourself, not necessarily when you do a headstand.   

Follow the journey!
