The Power Of Soft Skills: How To Grow Your Business

Today's episode of the podcast is my keynote at the ITC Vegas event. I dive deep into the huge opportunity on social media specifically LinkedIn for businesses and entrepreneurs. I also share my two cents on why complacency is hurting most businesses and how taking advantage of new technologies can help future-proof your business. Lastly, I talk about the importance of building a positive company culture for continuity and growth in business. If you're a business owner or planning to start a new business in 2024, this is the right video for you!

In this episode, I’m fired up to have a real, raw Q&A with a group of sharp, young entrepreneurs as part of my 2024 Summer Residency. And let me tell you—we get into the stuff no one’s talking about, but absolutely should be. Why is nobody telling young entrepreneurs that patience is the key? It’s because no one wants to hear it. But if you’re truly ambitious, you’ve got to fall in love with patience. The problem? So many of you are obsessed with looking successful instead of being successful, and that’s holding you back big time. We also hit on something huge—judgment. Most of you are stuck worrying about what your parents, friends, or social media think, but here’s the truth: nobody cares as much as you think they do. And when you get that, you’re free to start living for yourself, not for anyone else. I dive into why your 20s are the time to take massive risks—this is the decade when you can afford to fail and figure out who you really are. You need to stop beating yourself up for not having it all figured out by 22. I’m telling you, if you’re 22 right now, you’re a baby. You have all the time in the world, so don’t get caught up in trying to look like you’ve made it before you’ve actually done anything meaningful. Listen, this episode is full of the hard truths and big-picture perspective you need to hear right now. Stop worrying about what everyone else thinks, take the pressure off, and focus on doing you. The world sells fear every day—don’t buy into it. Let’s go, this is a big one!

I've spent a long time explaining to people why they need to get with the times and start embracing new tech. Whether that was my father accepting credit cards at his business 25 years ago, or convincing people that the Al will change the world today. In this podcast, I share a virtual talk I had with Ignition, an automated billing and payment collection app for businesses. We discuss how to properly use YouTube Shorts to bring awareness to your business, taking accountability, and adapting to the current social media and internet tools that exist today to grow our businesses. Hope you enjoy!

Over the past decade+, the definition of success has been skewed and muddled. To me, success is doing what you want, enjoying what you love, and waking up every day excited to do it. This is the message I've been sending for the past 10 years. In these 5 short minutes, I went deep into the fear of failure, the true definition of success, and the relationship it has with sacrifices. This will help change your perspective on what true success really means. Watch this twice, And enjoy your Sunday(:
