In this masterclass, I’m talking about street smarts—a topic I’ve never covered before, thanks to a suggestion from someone who caught one of my live streams. Street smarts are all about using common sense, being aware of your surroundings, and handling real-world situations in a smart way. This is part one of a four-part series, where I’ll share 12 skills to help you build and sharpen your street smarts.

Show Notes:

[03:54]#1 Situational awareness.

[10:18]#2 Resourcefulness.

[18:46]#3 Negotiation.

This is part two of why mainstream media is dying. If you missed yesterday’s episode, go back and listen so you can get the full picture. Today, I’m diving into how the media no longer controls the story—they’ve lost their power. Now, independent platforms are leading the way, and people are embracing unpolished content thanks to smartphones and social media. Plus, I talk about how advertisers, especially pharmaceutical companies, are calling the shots in mainstream media. Let’s get into it.

Show Notes:

[02:23]#4 Mainstream is used to shaping the story and having a populace in their pockets, but now people can easily double-check the information. 

[11:35]#5 Independent platforms do not have a mandate as to what to say or what slant to take. 

[25:35]#6 Smartphones and social media have made unpolished production cool.

In this class, I’m talking about why the mainstream media is dying. I first brought this up during one of my live streams—by the way, I go live at 8 AM Eastern, Monday through Friday, on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and more. This show is where I put my thoughts on the record, so if you ever wonder if I’ve talked about a topic, you’ll probably find it here. I’ll break down why the media is losing its influence and what it means for all of us. Let’s get into it.

Show Notes:

[04:18]#1 Social media influenced the mainstream to play a different game.

[12:21]#2 The Mainstream Media lost their game. 

[19:13]#3 Five stages of grief-denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. The mainstream media is only on stage two.

In this class, I’m talking about "Who over How." This idea came to me while I was trying to figure out some software that could help my business. I quickly realized that spending hours learning how to set it up wasn’t the best use of my time. Instead, I needed to find someone who’s good at that stuff and let them handle it. The lesson? Focus on what you’re great at and find the right people to handle the rest. Let’s break it down.

Show Notes:

[04:43]#1 Know what you do best and focus on doing that and only that. 

[12:43]#2 There is someone out there who can do everything else that needs to be done that are not your areas of expertise.

[19:45]#3 Know what you do best.

In this class, I’m talking to anyone who presents to an audience—whether you’re a speaker, teacher, lawyer, or student. The message is simple: don’t try to be “too smart” for your audience. I explain what that means and how trying to sound impressive can actually hurt your ability to connect and communicate. My job is to share knowledge in a way you can use, and I want to make sure you can do the same when it’s your turn to share your message. Let’s get into it.

Show Notes:

[07:06]#1 Many people have a bad habit of trying to prove to everyone else how smart you are, and this is done incorrectly. 

[14:27]#2 College degree holders are the most susceptible to this bad habit and you are the most guilty of executing on this bad habit. 

[19:43]#3 My superpower is my ability to take a complex topic, break it down, and make it simple enough for a fifth grader to understand it.

In this class, I talk about quitting—not the smart kind, but the kind where you give up even though you still want the outcome. This type of quitting can become a habit, and if you keep doing it, your mind starts to think it’s okay to walk away when things get tough. I’ll explain why we don’t want to let this kind of quitting take over and how to keep pushing forward, even when it feels hard.

Show Notes:

[03:38]#1 Life is being made easier and easier for all of humanity, which means it's easier to start, access and try things than it ever was before. 

[11:31]#2 There are several reasons why you should quit. Because sometimes you're just in a place where you should not be. 

[17:46]#3 Most people lack resilience, determination, and persistence .Opportunity lies in possessing these traits.
