In this episode of Willing 2 Win, Jeff and Tara share tangible ways to create your personal Winner's Circle strategically. This episode builds on the previous Willing 2 Win episode: The People Plan and gives you specific ways to create a success plan that leverages those relationships. This is more than just the people you know. Rather it's a programmatic approach to relationship building to maximize those relationships for mutual success. 

Your Winner's Circle offers the opportunity to achieve great success, share your strategies, and get feedback from others to achieve your dreams. Regardless of your station in life or where you are from, mapping your Winner's Circle will help you chase and realize your dreams.

Most of us believe in the idea of luck - that some people are just lucky, and others aren't. But what if there was a way to control the future of your career? To make sure that you're the one who always has good fortune? In this episode, Jeff and Tara talk about the secret to creating replicable outcomes from your good luck.

You're going to be in your career for 40+ hours a week, 52 weeks a year, for 40 years of your life. That's over 80,000 hours of your future committed to this thing called work. To truly take control of your future, you need a plan, specifically, a People Plan. Your People Plan is more than just sales targets; instead, these are the people that you're going to try to engage with to create the future of your dreams and help because it's mutual support for mutual success. 

Hear from Don Davey, a former NFL player who speaks about how he made a plan for life after football to ensure long-term success.

Plus, learn from Dr. Jared Smith, a superintendent in the Midwest and a recent author, about putting a lot of your insight from your on-the-job experience out there to engage with others.

The future is coming at us fast, and we need to take action now, or else it will be too late. In this first episode of a five-part series on how you can make your life better in the New Year (or any time!), Jeff & Tara focus entirely on YOU: what does success look like for someone who wants more out of their future career. You'll learn how to overcome imposter syndrome-that persistent feeling that no matter how much hard work you do, something remains elusive.

Hear from the co-creator of Orange Theory Fitness, Ellen Latham, about finding a way to take being fired at 40 and turn it into a fitness revolution.

Plus, a special interview with Canadian Javelin Thrower Liz Gleadle, who represents Canada in several Olympic games. Liz talks about what it takes to understand the depths and joy of mastery of something.

In this episode of Willing 2 Win, Jeff and Tara discuss the profession everyone loves to hate.

Do salespeople sell, or do customers buy? We've asked this question to hundreds of salespeople around the globe and here's the consensus: Nobody likes to be sold and no one wants to sell. So how do we create win-win situations that benefit us all?  Realizing that a sale should be much more than a transactional experience, we need to reinvent the process to make it more equitable for everyone involved. 

The fact is, every part of our lives is sales. Looking for a new job? You're in sales. Want a promotion? Sharpen those sales skills. Dating or married? It's all sales. What we used to think of as a slimy profession is nothing more than figuring out how to come to a mutually beneficial arrangement. Business leaders just need to be reminded of that.

In this episode special episode of Willing 2 Win, Jeff takes a backseat while Tara is joined by Tiffany O'Donnell, Chief Executive Officer of Women Lead Change. Tiffany is a fellow former news anchor and inspiring leader. Learn more about Tiffany and her mission to advance women's leadership in all aspects of life, including community, family and career.

In this episode of Willing 2 Win, Jeff and Tara dive into classic superheroes and why they're no longer enough to meet the rising needs of the world. As we plan for the future, leaders must ask how they can create leverage relationships to succeed where previous heroes couldn't.

We also meet Mark Schauerte, a former Chief of Staff who left Capitol Hill and sure success in search of deeper fulfillment. Mark talks about leveraging his own relationships to find a new career that aligned with his evolving goals and plans - true to the Willing 2 Win style.
