    In today’s episode, I sit down with Les Brown to talk about building a legacy that outlives you through storytelling, service, and teaching others to carry the mission forward.

Les shares lessons from overcoming stage four cancer, navigating new levels and new devils, and focusing on who you become through the journey. We also get personal about family, sacrifice, and what it means to live full and die empty while creating impact that lasts beyond your lifetime.

    Apr 25 2026
    In today’s episode, I answer questions on building real partnerships without locking yourself into rigid agreements that fall apart when circumstances change.

  • Engineering the Flow of Abundance

    Engineering the Flow of Abundance
    Apr 24 2026
    In today’s episode, I talk with Blaine Bartlett about what it really means to live in flow instead of chasing results. We break down how clarity, humility, awareness, and intention help create alignment, and why happiness is found in the pursuit itself. I share why so much of our exhaustion comes from interference like worry, frustration, and attachment to outcomes, while Blaine uses the metaphor of a river to show how trust and direction work together. We also get into focus, feedback, meditation, and the importance of staying in the learning zone, where growth, resilience, and real momentum begin to compound.

  • The True Cost of Wasted Energy

    The True Cost of Wasted Energy
    Apr 23 2026
    In today’s episode, I answer live audience questions about the tension between ambition and surrender, and how to stop wasting energy on what pulls us off course. I talk about why time matters so much, how to balance business, family, faith, health, and finances, and what it means to stay aligned in both the human experience and the infinite. I also share my thoughts on spotting toxicity, asking uncomfortable questions, learning from setbacks, and knowing when growth is happening versus when anxiety is taking over. Along the way, I reflect on parenting, mentorship, education, and the habits that help us recover, refocus, and move forward with purpose.

  • The Power of Doing More with Less

    The Power of Doing More with Less
    Apr 22 2026
    In today’s episode, I break down what it really means to do more with less by designing better systems instead of pushing harder. I share how efficiency comes from eliminating friction through automation, delegation, and intentional focus, even in the smallest daily habits. I walk through why fixing the whole system matters more than reacting to symptoms, and how culture is built through what we reward, not what we say. I also get into ownership, accountability, and replacing what’s broken instead of resisting it. When our systems, communication, and intention align, effort decreases, clarity improves, and results begin to compound in a meaningful way.

  • The One Question That Closes Every Deal

    The One Question That Closes Every Deal
    Apr 21 2026
    In today’s episode, I talk about why great opportunities show up far outside your assigned industry, and how business becomes easier when you stop thinking in narrow categories. I share what I’m building next, from a book centered on my five daily practices to a TV concept focused on giving promising entrepreneurs a real second chance. I also talk about handling rejection, staying persistent, and giving better meaning to setbacks over time. Along the way, I break down the difference between discipline and devotion, why harmony matters more than balance, how to think about risk tolerance, and what actually helps you stand out when everyone else is competing for attention.

  • How to Shift from Scarcity to Abundance

    How to Shift from Scarcity to Abundance
    Apr 20 2026
    In this episode, I remind you that giving doesn’t take away; it expands you. When you give with intention, you increase your capacity to receive and put yourself in the flow of more. I talk about why you have to give first, and how scarcity interferes with everything you want. What you give, time, energy, and encouragement is exactly what you strengthen in your life. When you shift from not enough to more than enough, and stay aligned in how you give, receive, and ask, you create a cycle that works for you. That’s how you live in abundance.

From turning down a $900 million offer to ultimately closing a billion-dollar exit, Cindy shares how she separated perceived value from true bottom line. We talk about structuring deals the right way, how she regained her company for $1, and the lessons learned from that process. Cindy also opens up about building a company in women’s health, pushing through skepticism, and shifting from proving yourself to creating real impact that changes lives.
