  The Leadership Skill Every Entrepreneur Needs with Aleta Maxwell

  Jun 17, 202648 minS1

  Leadership is one of the hardest parts of entrepreneurship — because at some point, your business stops being just about the product and starts being about people. In this episode, I sit down with Aleta Maxwell — executive coach, author of Uplifting Leaders , and founder of Uplifting Leadership — to unpack how entrepreneurs can have difficult conversations that actually motivate, inspire, and build trust. Aleta shares how her experience as a Chief Human Resources Officer helped shape the work she does today with entrepreneurs, executives, and leadership teams. We talk about why avoiding hard conversations is not kindness, how feedback can become one of the strongest tools in your business, and why communication problems often show up as team problems, performance problems, or even profit problems. We dive into: • Why avoiding difficult conversations quietly breaks trust • How to enter tough conversations with curiosity instead of assumptions • Why feedback is one of a leader’s most important jobs • How to reset communication with your team, even if you didn’t set expectations well at the beginning • The signs your “people problems” may actually be communication or training problems • Why progress over perfection matters so much for entrepreneurs • How every successful entrepreneur builds the right support system around them If you’re an entrepreneur who is building a team, managing people, avoiding hard conversations, or realizing leadership feels a lot harder than you expected — this episode is for you. You don’t have to have every conversation perfectly. You don’t have to lead alone. And your business will be stronger when your communication gets stronger. ⭐ Connect with Aleta + Uplifting Leadership Website: UpliftingLeadership.com Email: Aleta@UpliftLead.com Instagram: @uplifting_leadership Book: Uplifting Leaders: How to Have Difficult Conversations That Motivate and Inspire ⭐ Follow The Entrepreneur PodGuide: Instagram + TikTok: @EntrepreneurPodGuide YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠ https://www.youtube.com/@EntrepreneurPodGuide⁠⁠⁠ ⭐ Connect with Britt's Company, Archer Collaborative Website: ⁠⁠⁠ArcherCollaborative.com⁠ Email: info@archercollaborative.com ⭐ Connect with Our Host, Britt Rodriguez: Instagram: @rodriguezbrit LinkedIn: ⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.linkedin.com/in/brittanyrodriguezarcher/⁠ If this episode helped you in any way, share it with another business owner who could also benefit from the wisdom our entrepreneurs are dropping every week.

  Jun 16, 20261h 14mS1

  Sales is one of the most important skills in business… and this episode is truly a masterclass in how to do it better. In this episode, I sit down with Amy Reczek — founder of Sales and Presence and author of Connect to Close — for a conversation packed with practical, real-world sales wisdom for entrepreneurs, founders, and business owners. Amy breaks down how to sell without feeling pushy, how to follow up without feeling annoying, and how to build the kind of trust that actually moves a client relationship forward. From communication tactics to confidence, nonverbal cues, AI, personal boards, and the power of asking better questions, this episode is a gold mine for anyone who wants to get better at sales. We dive into: • Why sales is really about connection, not pressure • How to follow up without feeling like a nuisance • The communication mistakes that cost entrepreneurs opportunities • Why asking better questions builds trust faster • How to shift from pitching to serving • The role of confidence, posture, and presence in sales conversations • How AI can support sales without replacing human connection • Why every entrepreneur needs a personal board • How one small daily “checkbox” can help you build momentum If you’re an entrepreneur who knows sales matters but still feels unsure, awkward, or overwhelmed by it — this episode will give you tools you can use immediately. Sales doesn’t have to feel sleazy. It doesn’t have to feel forced. And you don’t have to become someone you’re not to get better at it. ⭐ Connect with Amy + Sales and Presence Website: salesandpresence.com ️ LinkedIn: Amy Reczek Book: Connect to Close ⭐ Follow The Entrepreneur PodGuide: Instagram + TikTok: @EntrepreneurPodGuide YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@EntrepreneurPodGuide ⭐ Connect with Britt's Company, Archer Collaborative Website: ArcherCollaborative.com Email: info@archercollaborative.com ⭐ Connect with Our Host, Britt Rodriguez: Instagram: @rodriguezbrit LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brittanyrodriguezarcher/ If this episode helped you in any way, share it with another business owner who could also benefit from the wisdom our entrepreneurs are dropping every week.

  Protect Your Energy: Toxic Relationships, Leadership, and Reclaiming Your Power with Dr. Sage Breslin

  Jun 15, 20261h 1mS1

  As entrepreneurs, we talk a lot about strategy, sales, marketing, and growth — but what about the relationships, patterns, and people quietly draining our energy? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Sage Breslin — licensed psychologist, founder of Sage Wisdom Institute, and creator of the ROSE System — to talk about toxic relationships, narcissistic dynamics, and why so many brilliant, high-achieving women can thrive in business while still finding themselves stuck in relationships that leave them depleted. Dr. Sage shares how her own healing journey, including a cancer diagnosis and years of trauma psychology work, led her to create the ROSE System: Restoring Old Soul Empowerment. Her work helps women, especially women in leadership, recognize toxic patterns, reclaim their power, and rebuild their lives with clarity and confidence. We dive into: • Why high-achieving women can be especially vulnerable to toxic relationships • What Dr. Sage calls the “narcissist magnet” • How toxic dynamics can show up in business, friendships, family, clients, hires, and romantic relationships • The signs that someone may be draining your energy instead of collaborating with you • The five Old Soul Women archetypes: Angel, Fairy, Magdalene, Harmonizer, and Wise Warrior • Why LinkedIn and word-of-mouth have been powerful tools in Dr. Sage’s business • The importance of knowing your strengths, outsourcing your weaknesses, and keeping an eye on your money • Dr. Sage’s reminder for women recovering from toxic relationships: “It’s not your fault.” If you are building a business, leading people, or trying to grow something meaningful, this episode is a powerful reminder that your energy is one of your most important assets. Protecting your peace is not separate from building your business. Reclaiming your power is not selfish. And sometimes, the next level of growth starts with finally seeing what has been draining you. ⭐ Connect with Dr. Sage Breslin + Sage Wisdom Institute Website: SageBreslin.com Sage Wisdom Institute: SageWisdomInstitute.com Take the Old Soul Women Quiz: OldSoulWomen.com Social: @SageBreslin / @DrSageBreslin ⭐ Follow The Entrepreneur PodGuide: Instagram + TikTok: @EntrepreneurPodGuide YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@EntrepreneurPodGuide ⭐ Connect with Britt's Company, Archer Collaborative Website: ArcherCollaborative.com Email: info@archercollaborative.com ⭐ Connect with Our Host, Britt Rodriguez: Instagram: @rodriguezbrit LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brittanyrodriguezarcher/ If this episode helped you in any way, share it with another business owner who could also benefit from the wisdom our entrepreneurs are dropping every week.

  Your Job Search Is a Marketing Campaign with Marty Gilbert

  Jun 15, 20261h 7mS1

  Most people approach the job search the same way: apply online, wait, hope, repeat. But according to Marty Gilbert, founder and CEO of NorthShore Executive Networking Group — also known as NSENG — that’s exactly why so many talented people get overlooked. In this episode, I sit down with Marty to talk about why the job search is really 90% marketing, how job seekers can create more visibility, and why his trademarked “what the hell” approach helps people take smarter risks that actually get noticed. Marty shares how his own career journey — from advertising in Japan, to Motorola, to leading Stats Inc., the company behind the data story featured in Moneyball — eventually led him to build a job-search community of more than 12,500 members. We dive into: • Why online applications should not be your whole strategy • How to stand out when hundreds of people are applying for the same role • Why LinkedIn is one of the most powerful tools for job seekers and entrepreneurs • What founders need to understand about hiring, training, and age discrimination • Why sales is the most important skill for entrepreneurs • How AI can become a teammate instead of a threat • The courage it takes to leave corporate life and build something of your own If you’re in a career transition, hiring for your company, building a business, or trying to get more comfortable taking smart risks — this episode is packed with practical wisdom. Stop waiting to be discovered. Start making yourself visible. And ask yourself: what do you really have to lose? ⭐ Connect with Marty + NSENG Website: https://nsenginc.com/ ️ LinkedIn: Marty Gilbert ✉️ Email: martygilbert1@gmail.com ⭐ Follow The Entrepreneur PodGuide: Instagram + TikTok: @EntrepreneurPodGuide YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@EntrepreneurPodGuide ⭐ Connect with Britt's Company, Archer Collaborative Website: ArcherCollaborative.com Email: info@archercollaborative.com ⭐ Connect with Our Host, Britt Rodriguez: Instagram: @rodriguezbrit LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brittanyrodriguezarcher If this episode helped you in any way, share it with another business owner, job seeker, or founder who could benefit from the wisdom our entrepreneurs are dropping every week.
