Today I want to share what I both witnessed and experienced at my recent event ICONIC: The Revolution, and it has to do with the powerful concept of SUBTRACTION.  In business we worship nonstop expansion, adding on, increasing volume, and stacking layers of complexity onto what we do. Today instead, I invite you to honor the subtraction, or *taking away*, and study its results. This will actually help move your forward in the right way, faster than your alternatives. It has a lot to do with energy. And I explain it all on this episode of #GlambitionRadio.   You’ll hear: Why I...

At our recent meeting for The Trust, a clear theme emerged just during our first session. There is currently a simultaneous occurrence for all of us, consisting of huge new opportunities along with huge demand to LET GO of something else in order to move in the right direction. And along with all this, feeling some crazy damn chaos on the perimeter!  But is all that chaos around us right now actually happening TO us? Or… FOR us? Think of a brilliant new home you’ve been dreaming of for years, but right now you’re in the middle of the old teardown. Welcome to ‘demo day’, baby!...

Glambition® Radio

Do you remember the Bible story about the golden calf? It’s basically revealing of human nature and our tendency to stray away from what’s true in the name of what’s new, sexier, faster, or ‘here right now’. This is one of my favorite stories that we can also relate to in business. Because we have all created – or have even been told to workshop  – our own golden calves… or ‘false gods’.  For the first time ever, in this episode of #GlambitionRadio, I break down 7 false gods I see most every day in the businesses I have worked with. There are many more, but these...

WOW… I was thrilled to have Danielle Laporte back on #GlambitionRadio to talk about… LOVE. Not love as in loving another person in particular, but a concept much greater, and the theme of her new book ‘.’ And, what does this have to do with ourselves as business owners and leaders? More than you may realize, in today’s times. Danielle spent the past few years radically simplifying her life, doing the deep work, and determining that love is not a feeling, but a virtue, and how we learn about love and express it is incredibly personal.  The good news? We can stop the chase. Stop...

Glambition® Radio

I’ve always been in love with writing, since I was little. Using words in the right way to convey your point to the fullest. Finding just the right word that can replace a string of five others. Expressing emotions that are hard to convey. And more.  But I never knew what copywriting actually was until my mid-20s, when I landed a job at a midtown boutique ad agency. It blended my love of both words and psychology. I immediately became enamored with the idea of doing that for a living – could it really be possible?  It was. I left that agency about two years later, to go off on my...

There are multiple timelines in existence right now. And it’s critical that we consciously select the higher ones… as entrepreneurs, as mothers, as citizens, as humans.  Because we are here to help bring the world through to ‘the other side’, in more ways than one. As entrepreneurs, we are likely here to create new ways of doing business. But in the overarching scope of things, we are really here to create a brand new world.  And WOMEN entrepreneurs are a huge part of leading this charge. (Have you noticed the answers have never pointed more strongly than right now to the...

As the oldest of seven children to a single mother who had her fair share of entrepreneurial failures, Jessica Mead knew early on that she never wanted to be an entrepreneur. But today she is cofounder of dozens of successful companies with a reported combined valuation topping $100M. 

Jessica is the founder + CEO of Brandlync, a managing partner of Drivonic and the co-founder of The Epek Companies and Mead Holdings Group with a combined valuation topping $100M, and a portfolio of angel investments that encompasses more than 20 companies. In addition to her business acumen, Jessica is a ‘hands on’ expert in alternative, supplemental, and customized education. She has also homeschooled her two children, creating her own curriculum and assessment of learning styles. 

On today’s episode of #GlambitionRadio, you’ll hear how Jessica built a multi-million dollar business portfolio without an online presence and why today she’s finally stepping into her own personal brand. She also shares the story of how she started homeschooling before it was “cool” and how she has developed such an expertise and passion for alternative, customized education. 

Jessica opens up about the positives of the pandemic for students and families, how she leads with “intentional congruence” in her family-first model in life+business, and about her book, ‘Firework Humans: Spark A Growth Mindset. Ignite 9 Entrepreneurial Instincts. Fuel Courage, Curiosity, Confidence, & Conviction.’

On this episode of Glambition Radio, you’ll hear:

  • What that changed Jessica’s mind about entrepreneurship after associating it with being hungry and homeless as a child and young adult. 
  • The $28M acquisition deal she lost due to not having an online presence
  • More about the two factors on which she bases her business and investment decisions: market need and knowing the numbers
  • How to feel empowered to homeschool your children, including tips on understanding learning styles and curriculum formation
  • Jessica’s side-hobby as a licensed helicopter pilot, referring to herself as a ‘dare-devil rainmaker’ who never backs down from a challenge.
