The Power of a Smile: Dr. Ken Smiley on Why Positivity Beats Profit | Vinney & Beau Show

What if a single smile could change your income, your impact, and your entire network? In this episode of The Vinney & Beau Show, Vinney Chopra and Beau Eckstein sit down with Dr. Ken Rochon — better known as "Dr. Smiley" — who turned a one-year deep dive into the power of a smile into 1,600+ shows, 64 published books, and a global movement of positive leaders.

 

Dr. Ken breaks down his research on why businesses built on smiles outperform businesses built on profit, his concept of "SPH" (Smiles Per Hour) and how it drives your velocity of income, impact, and inspiration — plus the relationship-first networking philosophy that connects everyone he meets. If you believe, like Vinney, that Positivity Brings Profitability, this one's for you.
