John Reed, CEO and Co-Founder of Bosscat Kitchen and Libations and Ten Restaurant is an absolute bada$$.

John’s social media plea for his employees early in the pandemic caught my eye, but it was his relentless pursuit of authenticity and excellence that drove me to hunt him down and convince him to chat with me.

Our discussion dug into leadership, sales and serving customers, manhood, loving your neighbor, and so much more.

Check out my trip down to Bosscat’s newest location in Orange for an amazing conversation, a fantastic lunch, and one of the best bourbon drinks out there.

I was fortunate to be invited back on the Influencer Networking Secrets Podcast with Paul Edwards.

Paul is a great friend and a content contributor to a lot of what you see me sharing on social media.

Peak performance is far less about everyone meeting a single bar and far more about individuals figuring out how to perform at their best…and then doing it.

One of the greatest skills high performing individuals possess is the ability to proactively avoid distractions. Which means those that don’t avoid distractions, don’t achieve peak performance.

Underperformers lack the desire, or (in most cases) the will, to do what is necessary to turn off the noise of the world.

If you fall victim to distractions which are hindering your ability to perform at your peak, this episode provides a few simple steps to have you fighting back.

Kelli Maxwell is the Whiskey Coffee brewing CEO, a Podcast Host, and Content Creator.

A mutual friend happened to tag me in one of Kelli’s posts talking about whiskey so I had to chime in :). Based on my friend’s recommendation and Kelli’s witty content, I knew I had to have her on the podcast.

In this episode, Kelli and I dug into her journey from princess to marketing master while along the way brewing whiskey-infused coffee and crushing the podcasting world.

Check it out and I am sure you will learn, grow, and be encouraged.

Alexandra Galviz is the OG of Authenticity, inspiring and educating people through corporate keynotes and workshops, enormous LinkedIn influence and coaching, and more. She is the co-creator of LinkedIn Live as well as a LinkedIn Learning Author.

I was drawn to Alex when we co-presented at a LinkedIn event in LA back in 2018. Her vulnerability, kindness, and immense wisdom was so inspiring to me and she quickly became someone I respected so much.

This conversation dug deep into what it means to be authentic, living for freedom, and how chasing money, power, and status causes depression, broken relationships, and so much hurt. 

Being on separate continents, we experienced a few technical difficulties but bear with us because the net result of this conversation will leave you with so much opportunity to grow personally.
