The Giant Builders

Sometimes the biggest changes in our lives begin with an opportunity we never expected.

In this episode of The Giant Builders, Lois Wyant talks with Wendy O’Neil, founder of Pearls With Purpose, about faith, purpose, relationships, business, and what can happen when we're willing to follow where God leads.

Wendy's journey began more than 20 years ago when she was raising five young children and struggling with a question many people face:

Who am I beyond the roles I fill every day?

As a certified gemologist, Wendy initially thought she might make and sell jewelry. Then an unexpected email from a woman in the Philippines changed everything.

That simple connection eventually grew into Pearls With Purpose, a nonprofit providing vocational and business training to women and communities in developing countries.

Today, Wendy's work has reached multiple countries and helped individuals learn skills, start businesses, support their families, educate their children, and create opportunities for future generations.

In this conversation, you'll hear about:

• How an unexpected email changed the direction of Wendy's life

• The heartbreaking story that helped Wendy understand the need she could help address

• How Pearls With Purpose grew from four women to multiple countries

• Why Wendy believes in providing a “hand up” rather than simply a handout

• How basic business skills can transform families and communities

• The importance of recognizing opportunities God puts in front of us

• Wendy's own journey through divorce, healing, and finding love again

• How Wendy and her husband created Unstick the Stuck

• Why self-worth affects our relationships with others

• Why Wendy and Lois both believe God should come first

• How faith creates a foundation for marriage and relationships

• What Wendy learned while stranded in Kenya during 2020

• Why the habits you build today can ground you when a crisis comes

Near the end of the conversation, Wendy shares a lesson that has stayed with her:

Your habits are what will ground you during times of crisis.

While stranded thousands of miles from home during an incredibly uncertain time, Wendy continued the habits that had already become part of her life—journaling, studying scripture, taking care of herself, connecting with others, and leaning on her faith.

We can't always control what happens around us.

But we can build a foundation that helps us remain grounded when life suddenly changes.

And sometimes, the opportunity God places in front of us may look nothing like the plan we had for ourselves.

What if you could grow your business without relying on cold calls and sales pitches?

In this episode of The Giant Builders, Lois Wyant talks with master business coach Danny Creed, who brings decades of experience building businesses, coaching entrepreneurs, and helping business owners grow.

Danny shares what business owners need during their first five years—and what needs to change once they've survived those critical early years.

You'll learn:

• Why every business owner needs to understand sales

• Why listening may be your most important sales skill

• Why traditional elevator pitches are losing their effectiveness

• How to explain what you do in a way that creates curiosity

• Why your business needs a clear vision

• What changes after your first five years in business

• Why you should think about your exit strategy long before you're ready to sell

• The three roles every growing business needs

• Why owners often spend too much time doing work someone else could do

• How Danny's Champions Network generates referrals without cold calling

• Why understanding your customer's needs comes before selling

• How becoming a trusted advisor can change the sales conversation

• Why knowing your true target customer can dramatically change your marketing

Danny also shares the philosophy behind his book Champions Never Make Cold Calls and explains how he says 100% of his new coaching clients over the past 18 years came through referrals.

One of Danny's most practical lessons is this:

Understand your customer's needs from their point of view. Validate that you understand those needs. Then offer to help solve them.

Whether you're starting your first business or trying to figure out what's next for an established company, this conversation will make you think differently about sales, growth, referrals, and the business you're building.

Are you networking—or are you actually building relationships that lead to business?

In this episode of The Giant Builders, Lois Wyant talks with lead generation strategist Brenda Marie Sheldrake about creating a relationship strategy that produces more qualified leads without relying on cold DMs, purchased lists, or “spray and pray” networking.

Brenda explains why genuine relationship building requires more than simply connecting with hundreds of people. It means listening, asking thoughtful questions, building trust, creating consistency across your online presence, and knowing exactly who you want to meet.

You'll learn:

• Why qualified leads are more valuable than simply getting more leads

• What a relationship strategy actually looks like

• Why warm introductions can outperform cold outreach

• How to use LinkedIn to build genuine connections

• Why Brenda recommends focusing on two social platforms

• How consistency across platforms helps establish trust

• A manageable approach to posting and engaging on social media

• Why thoughtful comments matter more than automatic responses

• How conversations can naturally move from comments to one-on-one relationships

• Why giving someone your calendar link isn't a relationship strategy

• How to ask someone for a warm introduction

• Why relationship building takes time—and why the long-term payoff can be worth it

One of the most important lessons from this conversation is simple:

Be more interested than interesting.

Instead of walking into every networking opportunity asking, “Who can buy from me?”, start asking:

“Who should I get to know?”

Those relationships can lead to clients, introductions, referrals, collaborations—and sometimes friendships that last far beyond the original business connection.

What if the greatest leadership lesson isn't about managing other people—but about leading yourself?

In this episode of The Giant Builders, Lois Wyant sits down with Carol Metz Murray, founder of Naked Leadership, to explore how courage, authenticity, and self-awareness create stronger leaders and more fulfilling lives.

Carol shares her deeply personal journey through childhood trauma, domestic abuse, burnout, and rebuilding her life. She explains how those experiences shaped her leadership philosophy and why true leadership begins by understanding yourself before trying to lead others.

Whether you're a business owner, executive, parent, or someone navigating life's challenges, this conversation will inspire you to stop leading from fear and start leading from courage.

In this episode you'll learn:

• What "Naked Leadership" really means

• Why authentic leadership starts within

• How childhood experiences influence adult leadership

• The power of radical self-responsibility

• Why courage is stronger than fear

• How to identify emotional triggers before reacting

Have you ever felt like you've done everything you know to do...yet you still can't move forward?

Through hypnotherapy, she helps people identify and heal those invisible wounds so they can live with greater confidence, peace, and purpose.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why your subconscious mind controls most of your daily life

• The difference between the conscious and subconscious mind• Why anxiety is often a symptom—not the real problem

• How hypnotherapy helps uncover limiting beliefs

Your website isn't dead—but its job has changed.

AI search tools like ChatGPT and Google's AI features are changing how customers research businesses, ask questions, and decide who to trust. That means your website now has another important audience beyond Google and your potential customers: artificial intelligence.

In this episode of The Giant Builders, Lois Wyant, founder of JFT Web Marketing, breaks down what local business owners need to know about building and optimizing a website for the way people search today.

Lois explains why your website should become your company's source of truth online—clearly communicating who you are, what you do, where you work, who you help, and why customers should trust you.

You'll also learn a simple 5-second website test you can use immediately to determine whether visitors understand your business when they land on your homepage.

But visibility is only part of the equation.

Ranking isn't the goal. Customers are the goal.

Lois explains why your website needs to attract the types of customers and services you actually want more of—and then make it incredibly easy for those visitors to take the next step.

• Why websites may be more important in the age of AI—not less

• How customer search behavior is changing

• The 5-second test every business website should pass

• Why your most profitable services deserve their own attention

• Why SEO is moving beyond keywords toward customer questions

• How FAQs, articles, videos, and service pages can answer buying questions

• What makes a strong local service-area page

• The five things AI needs to understand about your business

• Why authority, expertise, relevance, geography, and proof matter

• How reviews, photos, case studies, certifications, and videos build trust

• Why your Google Business Profile and website need to tell the same story

• How your entire digital footprint affects visibility

• Why getting traffic isn't enough if your website doesn't convert

• The technical website fundamentals that still matter

• How to evaluate whether your business is truly ready for AI search

One of the biggest takeaways from this episode is simple:

Don't just tell customers, Google, and AI that you're trustworthy. Give them enough evidence to reach that conclusion themselves.

And when you're evaluating your website, stop asking:

"Do I like my website?"

Instead ask:

"Is my website helping the right customers find, understand, trust, and choose my business?"
