You might have heard of the military or the prison industrial complexes, but they aren’t the only of their kind. I used to think an industrial complex was just a fancy way of saying a large or pervasive system, but what it really is is a self-justifying, self-reinforcing system. These systems purposely create problems just […]

MOTM #671: Are Ads Killing Your Confidence?
6/30/2025
20:11
I love getting ads online, but when I say ads I mean the kind showing me some shorts I’d like to buy, not the kind that tell me my business sucks and I need to hire a coach to make it suck less. Coaching is great—I am one!—but there are people out there that sow […]
MOTM #670: How to Make People Care
6/23/2025
24:46
When the work is as shitty as it is right now, how the hell do you get the people around you to start caring? Well, you don’t. You can’t! It’s frustrating and at times demoralizing, but y’all know I’m all about taking ownership of what you CAN control, instead of allowing yourself to become a […]

MOTM #669: Narrative Warfare
6/16/2025
17:59
In the same way that history is written by the victors, the social narrative gets decided by the best storyteller. The way the story gets told changes the way that the story is received, which directly effects the outcome of any given situation. When liars, racists, or any other genre of assholes are telling the […]
MOTM #668: Online Business: Uphill Both Ways?
6/9/2025
19:37
Running an online business sometimes feels like like walking to and from your destination uphill, both ways. This shit takes a hell of a lot of work and—especially at the beginning of your journey—often the amount of work you’re putting in doesn’t feel commensurate with the amount of money you’re making. I won’t lie, all […]
MOTM #667: Grill the Fruit, Skip the Launch
6/2/2025
16:55
It’s summer and if there’s one piece of advice you should take from me, it’s this: your work can wait. Every summer, things start to slow down, and I think you should be one of them. Summer is for being present and savoring all the little moments. So maybe put a pause on your next […]
MOTM #666: I Don’t Believe in Charging Your Worth
5/26/2025
19:50
Whoever came up with the idea to “charge your worth” didn’t know what the hell they were talking about. I’m it’s well intentioned and it’s a saying to encourage others to charge more for their services, but “worth” is something ill-defined and highly subjective. Wouldn’t it be better to charge what you need? Because damn […]
MOTM #665: What’s the Next Step After Your First Launch?
5/19/2025
31:35
So you’ve launched your product for the first time… now what? Knowing what to do next after a launch depends on a ton of different factors—namely, was it even successful? I can’t pretend to know the exact strategy your business needs (you can book a one-on-one call with me to figure that out), but for […]
MOTM #664: What’s Your Thing?
5/12/2025
19:48
In your business, in your activism, and in your life, you can’t do it all. As a business coach, I’m always telling people to niche down and to focus on one thing at a time, and I know how impossible that feels. When you do a lot of things and you care about a lot […]
MOTM #663: Do We Actually Need More Podcasts?
5/5/2025
29:15
The world doesn’t need another Joe Rogan. But that doesn’t mean podcasts are dead, and it doesn’t mean what you have to say is unimportant, either. There are plenty of podcasts out there, but only a small portion of those are actually GOOD, and an even smaller portion of those ever make it past 100 […]
