Tired of cold DMs, fake funnels, and forced connections?
Mike Ashburner aka The Redneck Connector went from nearly homeless during COVID to building Hounds of Business, a trust-first community flipping the script on traditional sales. In this raw, real conversation, we unpack why spray-and-pray marketing burns out high achievers (like you), and how a single mindset shift “who over how” can transform your business in 20 minutes a day.

Whether you're a founder sick of being fake, or a high-performing woman silently collapsing behind success, this episode will hit deep.

🎯 Topics covered:

• Why you feel like a football player at a baseball game in business
• How “farming” trust beats “hunting” leads
• What happens when you treat clients like relationships, not transactions
• How to find your people—without forcing a brand that isn’t you

This is your permission slip to stop performing, and start connecting.
