Here’s what we cover: How to use The Emotional Calibration Technique to go from squirrel brain to fully present in under 60 seconds Why intentional silence is one of your most persuasive tools How body language, tone, and pacing instantly shift audience trust If you’ve ever watched someone totally captivate a room and wondered, “How do they do that?”  This episode unpacks the how, the why, and the actionable tools to help you do the same.   PRE-ORDER BOOK BONUS: If you haven’t pre-ordered my new published book One Presentation Away yet—this is the best time.

When the market feels shaky, most coaches and course creators do one of two things: Panic. Or pause everything. But neither one actually helps you grow. In this episode of the Expert Edge, Colin breaks down three practical, battle-tested strategies that will help you stay clear, confident, and profitable—even when the economy’s wobbly and your launch starts looking like a ghost town. You’ll learn: Why your beliefs about the market might be costing you more than the market itself. How to elevate your audience and attract higher-level clients (even now). The real reason your offer isn’t converting—and how to make it actually irresistible. This episode isn’t about fear tactics or false hype. It’s about leading yourself (and your business) wisely, especially when things feel uncertain. If you’ve been feeling stuck, spinning, or low-key stressed—this episode will give you the reset you didn’t know you needed.   PRE-ORDER BOOK BONUS: If you haven’t pre-ordered my new published book One Presentation Away yet—this is the best time.

Most coaches think that if they just dial in their funnel, optimize their email sequence, or finally crack the perfect ad—they’ll start converting more clients. But here’s the truth: it’s not just about tactics. It’s about the transfer of belief. In this episode of the Expert Edge, I dive deep into the invisible strategy that underpins every high-converting sales experience—and most people don’t even know they’re doing it wrong. You’ll learn: Why belief is more powerful than persuasion—and how to transfer it. How to show up with authority without being salesy or pushy. The subtle shifts that get potential clients saying “yes” before you even make the offer. Whether you're selling on a webinar, in a DM, or from a stage, this episode will help you close more clients—by focusing on what they actually need to believe to buy.   PRE-ORDER BOOK BONUS: If you haven’t pre-ordered my new published book One Presentation Away yet—this is the best time.

You don’t need more funnels, more content, or another “10K in 10 Days” webinar. You need to stop thinking thoughts that sound smart… but are quietly sabotaging your business. In this episode of the Expert Edge, I’m breaking down the 5 most common toxic thoughts I’ve seen in the coaching and course creator world. These are the sneaky ones. The ones that hide under the mask of “responsibility” and “logic”... but slowly chip away at your momentum, your confidence, and your income. Here’s the thing: If you don’t learn how to spot them, you’ll keep spinning in circles—wondering why your “proven” strategies aren’t working anymore. But once you become aware of them, everything changes. I’ll walk you through: Why one “harmless” belief might be costing you hundreds of clients The difference between smart growth and disguised self-sabotage The mindset shift that separates stuck coaches from the 7-figure ones This one’s practical, honest, and might sting a little in the best way. Listen in now—and free yourself from the thoughts that have been holding you back (without you even realizing it).   PRE-ORDER BOOK BONUS: If you haven’t pre-ordered my new published book One Presentation Away yet—this is the best time.

If strategy was the whole answer, we’d all be millionaires by now. But if you’ve ever had a “successful” launch and still felt anxious…  ...or watched your Stripe account grow while your confidence still lacked… There’s something deeper going on. In this episode of the Expert Edge, I’m pulling back the curtain on a conversation we all need to have—but most people avoid: your nervous system. Because here’s the truth: You don’t just build a business with strategy—you build it with your state. And if your nervous system is stuck in stress, fear, or fight-or-flight mode... it doesn’t matter how good your funnels are. You’ll keep self-sabotaging your growth. In this solo episode, I’m breaking down how I’ve personally rewired my own nervous system for success—and how I coach my students through the same process. You’ll learn: Why high performance often hides chronic stress How to identify nervous system dysregulation in your business The #1 somatic shift I made to finally feel safe hitting 6 and 7-figure months And how to lead from calm, power, and presence—no matter what’s happening externally This episode is vulnerable, practical, and probably the missing piece you didn’t know you needed. If you’ve been stuck at a plateau—or pushing so hard you’re burning out—this one’s for you.

Ever felt stuck, spiraling, or just plain panicked in your business? You're not alone. In fact, fear is a frequent visitor at every stage of growth—whether you're launching your first offer or scaling past seven figures. In this episode of the Expert Edge, I break down the five coaching questions I personally use (and teach my clients) to shift from fear into focus, from overwhelm into clarity, and from spinning your wheels into real momentum. You’ll learn: Why your brain defaults to disempowering questions—and how to override it. The exact reframe that helps you uncover opportunity in the middle of chaos. How to use “certainty-based thinking” to make bold decisions that align with your future self. Whether you’re leading clients through emotional blocks or navigating your own, these five questions will become your go-to toolset for turning stuckness into strategy.
