What 40 Years of Success Taught Them | The LIV Lab Episode 33 ft. Jeff Burgess and Kelly Nagel
Apr 26, 202641 minS2
We hear a lot about success. The title. The promotion. The company. The money. But we hear a lot less about what actually builds it: The mentor who believed in you. The relationship that opened a door. The risk you took before you felt ready. The courage to ask for more. This week on The LIV Lab, Jeff Burgess and Kelly Nagel take over the mic. Jeff built BCD Video into a $100 million company. Kelly rose to become President of North America at Jabra and now helps others grow through executive coaching and leadership at The WIT Network. But the real story is that they spent 40 years learning, growing, and succeeding alongside each other. This episode is full of honest lessons on ambition, mentorship, confidence, and building a meaningful career. In this episode, we explore: Why relationships matter more than most people realize How to ask for opportunities instead of waiting Why mentors can change your path How to take risks before you feel ready Why curiosity is a superpower What legacy really means The LIV Call to Action Learn : Notice who brings out your best and learn from them. Innovate : Choose one thing you've been wanting and say it out loud. Venture : Start one conversation this week that could change your future. 📩 Share your week's LIV!

Money Won't Fix It (But It Still Matters) | The LIV Lab Episode 32 ft. John Lanza
Mar 23, 202659 minS2
You finally get the thing you wanted… and somehow, it still doesn't feel like enough. The new gym set. The hoodie. The car. The house. The "this is gonna change everything" purchase. For a moment, it does feel exciting. And then… it fades. And suddenly, you're onto the next thing. So what's actually going on? This week on The LIV Lab , I sit down with John Lanza , author of The Art of Allowance and creator of Money Mammals , to talk about money, but not in the way you're used to. Not just budgets or investing. But the feeling behind it all. Because money is more than math. It's emotional and psychological. This episode is part mindset shift, part practical tools, and part "wait… why do I do that?" In this episode, we explore: • Why buying things doesn't lead to lasting happiness • The difference between wanting something and actually valuing it • Why money is more emotional than logical (yes, even for you) • The 3 core habits: saving, spending, and investing, simplified • How to stop impulsive spending (without guilt) • The concept of "paying your future self" • What financial independence actually means (and why it looks different for everyone) • Why there is no "perfect" career path, and why that's okay The LIV Call to Action Learn: Start noticing your patterns. The next time you want to buy something, pause and ask: Do I actually want this… or do I want how I think it will make me feel? Innovate: Create a system that works for you. A one-week waiting rule, a spending cap, or even just a quick "check-in" before purchases. Build a little friction. Venture: Make one intentional money decision this week. Skip one impulse buy, or choose something that truly adds value to your life. 📩 Share your week's LIV!

The Truth About Money, Failure, and Starting Over | The LIV Lab Episode 31 ft. Joe Saul-Sehy
Mar 2, 20261h 1mS2
What do a maxed-out credit card, a gas station meltdown, and one of the biggest money podcasts in the country have in common? Joe. This week on The LIV Lab, I sit down with Joe Saul-Sehy , host of Stacking Benjamins , to talk about the story he doesn't hide: the messy one. Before the awards. Before the financial advice. Before helping millions of people feel confident about money. There was confusion, and a few (a lot of) questionable decisions. And some very real wake-up calls. Joe shares how he went from feeling completely out of control to building systems, surrounding himself with the right people, and redefining what "success" actually means. We talk about money, but we also talk about identity, creativity, leadership, risk, and the difference between security and opportunity. In this episode, we explore: • Why making more money doesn't automatically fix anything • The mindset shift that changed everything • "Who not how" and why community matters more than we think • The illusion of security in careers and life • How creativity became his unexpected superpower • What money can do, and what it absolutely cannot The LIV Call to Action Learn: More money will not fix bad habits. Learn one new system this week. Talk to someone who is good with money, watch something, or read something that stretches you. Innovate: It is not about working harder. It is about building better systems. Create one small habit that makes your future easier. Venture: Have one uncomfortable but important money conversation. Be honest about where you are at. 📩 Share your week's LIV! Email me at thelivlabpodcast@gmail.com Learn more about Joe at https://joesaulsehy.com/ .

You're Not Being Ignored—Your Message Is | The LIV Lab Episode 30 ft. Carmine Gallo
Feb 3, 20261 hourS2
What if the problem isn't your ideas, but just how they're landing? You can be smart, prepared, and genuinely onto something… and still watch your message float right past the room. Painful. Confusing. Weirdly common. In this episode of The LIV Lab, I sit down with Carmine Gallo, who's spent decades studying why some messages stick—and others quietly disappear, no matter how good they are. This isn't about talking louder, adding more slides, or using bigger words. It's about understanding how humans actually pay attention, why simplicity is so hard (and so powerful), and what storytelling has to do with getting people to lean in—at work, in interviews, and even in your relationships. We talk about persuasion without the salesy energy, clarity without dumbing things down, and why being "interesting" has very little to do with being flashy. There's also a reality check on AI, attention spans, and the myth that great communicators are just born that way. If you've ever thought, "I know this makes sense—why isn't it clicking?" This conversation might finally give that question a shape.

Every question we get asked before someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
