Right now, people with zero clinical training and a weekend certification are charging $10,000 for wellness protocols they got from ChatGPT — and making millions. Meanwhile, the chiropractors, functional medicine doctors, naturopaths, and nutritionists who actually know how the human body works are grinding through 25 clients a week, fighting insurance companies, and wondering why they have no freedom. In this episode, I break down exactly how I'd build a $5 million health practice starting from scratch. I walk through why you can't build real wealth selling one-on-one appointments (the math...

Most people are tanking their sales calls before they even open their mouth. They think the problem is their script — it's not. It's their frame. In this episode, I break down the Doctor Frame — the exact framework behind over $100 million in high-ticket enrollments — and walk through all seven phases of the call. Early in my career, I called back 80 people who said no on sales calls. Every single one of them. Not one had made progress. That's when I realized — the breakthrough call isn't just a conversation. It's their one real chance to change their life. And if you show up with...

What if I told you Facebook is secretly classifying your business right now — and based on that classification, they're deciding whether your ads get the red carpet or get buried? I went into our ads manager source code and found proof. In this episode, I break down Meta's hidden trust rating system, what I actually found in our code, and the massive algorithm change from early 2025 that's killing advertisers who haven't adapted. I walk through the four factors that influence your hidden trust classification (one of them your own customers might be doing to you right now), what I found when...

If you're a teacher, educator, or academic professional, you have one of the most marketable skills on the planet — and right now it's probably going to waste. You can take impossibly complex material and make it land inside the head of a 16-year-old who'd rather be anywhere else. Wall Street pays consultants $300/hour to do a worse version of what you do every day. In this episode, I walk through exactly how I'd build a $5 million business starting with nothing but a teaching credential. The first move I'd make would surprise most educators — and it has everything to do with why 93% of...

If you're a therapist, you're probably brilliant at what you do, you care deeply about your clients, and you're exhausted — seeing 25-30 clients a week at $150/hour, fighting insurance companies, doing notes at midnight. In this episode, I break down exactly how I'd build a $5 million practice as a therapist starting from scratch using the same system that's worked across 6,000 clients over 12 years. And the first move I'd make would shock most therapists. I walk through why group delivery actually produces better outcomes than one-on-one (there's a neuroscience principle that explains...

I've watched coaches with perfect funnels stay stuck for years. And I've watched coaches with ugly funnels, basic landing pages, and iPhone videos get to $100K/month in 90 days. The difference isn't strategy. It's power — the internal certainty you bring to every conversation. When I stopped trying to prove myself and started showing up with genuine certainty, my close rate changed dramatically. Same offer, same price, same funnel. Why Certainty Sells There's a principle from neuroscience called co-regulation — our nervous systems sync up with calm, grounded humans. When a prospect is full...

If your sales calls aren't converting, it's probably not your price, your leads, or your offer. It's that you're teaching on the call. I used to make this exact mistake — I'd spend 40 minutes giving free consulting, the prospect would say "this is amazing, let me think about it," and I'd lose the sale. When I made one shift, my close rate went up dramatically without changing anything else. The Teaching Trap When you teach on a sales call, you're not creating desire — you're satisfying it. You give them just enough information to feel like they've got it figured out. The urgency...

If I lost everything and had to do $5 million in 12 months starting from scratch — no list, no reputation, no brand — this is exactly what I'd do. Not what I did years ago when the market was different. What I'd do right now in 2026, knowing everything I know after nine figures in high-ticket sales. Why the Math Is Simpler Than You Think A $10K program means you need 10 clients to hit $100K/month. At a 25% close rate, that's 40 conversations. At $200 per booked call, you're spending about $16K to make $100K. You give Zuckerberg a dollar, he gives you five back. Then you just do it again....

Most coaches are grinding for every $5,000 sale. Meanwhile, our top client has invested over $852,000 with us — and they didn't do it all at once. They joined, got results, stayed, upgraded, and kept investing year after year. In this episode, I break down exactly how to build a business where your best clients become your biggest source of revenue and actually thank you for it. What Premium Clients Are Really Paying For It's not more modules, more calls, or more templates. They're paying for three things: the outcome, certainty that your process works, and leadership from someone who will...

The most important work I do every day — the work that built a $100M company — takes about four hours. Not 12, not 16. Four. In this episode, I break down the exact operating system I use to collapse time, why most productivity advice is garbage, and the two things I focus on every single day that change everything. My Daily System (2 Things That Matter) 1. Sharpen the Saw — I protect my morning. No phone, no email, no fires. Meditation, movement, building capacity. By the time I sit down to work, I'm operating at a completely different level than someone who woke up and started doom...
info_outlineI've sold over $100 million in high-ticket coaching, but what Colette Baron-Reid taught me about manifestation completely shifted my perspective.
In this interview, we dive deep about her revolutionary "Art of Manifesting" method.
Here's what we covered:
✅ Why I felt like I was already good at this technique (and you might be too)
✅ How she went from 12 attendees to 8 high-ticket sales by surrendering
✅ The neuroscience that makes this work (it's not woo-woo)
✅ Why being "hyper-specific" about what you want might backfire
✅ The simple drawing exercise I now use with my own clients
Colette shares how she got a record deal at 40 (they thought she was 28!) and why getting exactly what she wanted made her miserable - until she learned this method.
