Ever wondered how some authors transform their books from simple publications into thriving businesses? Taurea Vision Avant doesn't just write about that transformation—she lives it, having built a $10 million empire helping over 6,000 authors monetize their message through Book Profits Club.

During our candid conversation, Taurea reveals how a challenge in her network marketing career became the catalyst for her entrepreneurial reinvention. When leadership misunderstood her intentions behind publishing a book, she recognized an opportunity to forge her own path rather than continue building someone else's dream. This pivotal moment led to the creation of Book Profits Club, a community that now helps authors generate substantial income from their expertise.

Taurea dismantles common misconceptions about authorship, particularly the belief that books must tell your complete life story. "What people are looking for is not necessarily your life story, unless they already know who you are," she explains. Instead, she advocates focusing on specific transformations readers seek. With 11,000 books published daily but only 1,000 making more than $1,000 annually, Taurea's strategic approach to authorship stands out in a crowded marketplace.

The heart of Taurea's methodology lies in her "success funnel" framework—four essential elements that create a sustainable author business: a free hook, your book as an introduction, a mid-priced core offering, and a premium product. Combined with her "success schedule" of consistent, focused activity, this system allows authors to generate significant income by strategically presenting their books to just 50 people monthly. Through powerful examples and practical advice, Taurea demonstrates how authorship becomes the foundation for speaking engagements, coaching programs, and recurring revenue streams.

Families today are raising kids in two worlds: the one at home and the one on their screens. We invited Dr. Myava Clark—author, advocate, respiratory therapist, and college professor—to help us connect those worlds with practical tools and real hope. She breaks down what neurodivergent truly means, why early testing matters, and how social and emotional learning can be the difference between a child shrinking from challenges or stepping into friendships where they’re celebrated.

Together, we unpack the realities of online risk without fear-mongering. From gaming platforms to group chats, kids are targeted by manipulative tactics that exploit loneliness and curiosity. Dr. Clark explains how CASEN prepares children before they ever log on—teaching them to recognize bullying, report it safely, and build confidence that travels with them into digital spaces. Just as important, parents get the same playbook so the learning continues at home. We also talk about the power of community through MOEK, a welcoming space for mothers, fathers, grandparents, and caregivers who need support, not judgment.

This conversation is a guide for anyone who wants both safety and dignity for their child. You’ll hear simple scripts for handling cyberbullying, clear examples of physical, verbal, social, and online harassment, and a reminder that digital footprints last longer than a moment. And we go deeper—into faith, surrender, and the permission to pace yourself. Dr. Clark’s message is steady and strong: you are enough, your child is enough, and different is not a defect. If you’re ready to trade worry for wisdom and isolation for community, you’ll feel seen and equipped.

You can feel when a team is chasing numbers instead of solving problems. We invited author and product leader Radhika Dutt to walk us through a practical shift: build a vision your team can use, then turn that vision into decisions you can defend. No fluff, no vague slogans—just a clear blueprint for who you’re serving, the pain you’re addressing, and how your product truly changes their world.

Radhika breaks down the “product diseases” that creep into organizations when vision is fuzzy: pivotitis from chasing shiny ideas, obsessive sales disorder from one-off deals, and strategic swelling that tries to be everything to everyone. She then shows how to pivot with gravitas by explaining what you learned, where you were wrong, and why the next move makes sense. We map trade-offs on two axes—long-term vision and short-term survival—so teams can spot when to invest, when to accept vision debt, and how to avoid the slow slide into roadmap chaos.

We also dig into why goals and targets often backfire, splintering collaboration across sales, product, and marketing. The antidote is puzzle-setting: define the shared puzzle, run focused experiments, and ask three simple questions—how well did it work, what did we learn, and what will we try next? Radhika shares a striking case study where honoring tech-averse users’ need for control (not “magic” automation) doubled sales two years in a row. Along the way, we show how the same framework can guide your personal choices, helping you balance purpose with survival so work feels energizing, not soul-sucking.

If you’re ready to replace fluff with focus, and targets with learning, this conversation is your playbook. Grab the free Radical Product Thinking toolkit, explore puzzle-setting with the OHL’s Toolkit, and tell us how you’re aligning your next decision with your vision. Subscribe, share with a teammate, and leave a review to help others find the show.

What does it take to forgive when your world comes apart? We sit down with educator, author, and grief consultant Anthony Jones to talk about losing his eight-year-old son, confronting disappointment with God, and learning how forgiveness can coexist with honest, unfiltered sorrow. Anthony opens up about the day everything changed, the counseling that kept his family afloat, and the unexpected way writing became both obedience and healing.

Together, we unpack the myths that keep men silent—don’t cry, don’t crack, don’t feel—and offer a better path: safe spaces, patient listening, and language that doesn’t punish vulnerability. Anthony shares why he created The Pool Hall, a growing community where men gather around something simple—playing pool—and leave with allies, not lectures. We get practical about how partners, friends, and coworkers can show up without minimizing loss: resist clichés, keep routines familiar, and practice the ministry of presence. No interrogations, just conversations.

Anthony’s book, How to Forgive God, challenges the idea that faith prevents tragedy. Instead, it reframes faith as the engine that shapes our response. We talk about forgiving ourselves, distinguishing human failure from divine intent, and choosing wholeness without rushing the process. If you’ve ever asked hard questions of God or wondered how to support a grieving man, this conversation meets you where you are and offers real tools to move forward.

Hear Anthony’s story, explore a living blueprint for emotional safety, and leave with hope that healing is possible without pretending. If this resonates, subscribe, share the show with someone who needs it, and leave a review to help more people find their way to honest, courageous healing.

What if the story you keep repeating is the very thing holding you back? We sit down with Dr. Crystal D. Woods—speaker, coach, and advocate for justice—to unpack how forgiveness becomes a practical tool for freedom, why release is different from forgetting, and how letting go can restore your voice, your joy, and your direction. This is a grounded, honest look at healing after trauma and the daily discipline of self-leadership.

Dr. Woods walks us through her journey from a turbulent decade to a skydiving moment that changed everything, and the channeled writing that became her book, Reclaim Your Power: The Journey Back to Self. Together we explore the three-part framework—forgive, release, and let go—and what it looks like to separate emotion from the event so triggers lose their hold. We talk about people pleasing, self-abandonment, and the quiet ways we surrender our authority to memories, roles, or expectations that do not reflect who we are becoming.

You’ll hear practical steps for starting self-forgiveness with a compassionate assessment of impact, questions that reframe pain into purpose, and simple actions that return control to your hands. We dig into why many of us suffer in silence, how the right support and collaboration can accelerate healing, and the liberating truth that you are not “too much.” When you protect your joy, speak your wants without apology, and align your choices with your values, you reclaim the power to lead your life from within.

A single seed changed the story. We sit down with Kellesia Sharay, owner of Dexa Family Gardens, to trace a journey from a restrictive religious environment to a life rebuilt in soil, sunlight, and care. What began as a quiet refuge turned into a framework for healing trauma, setting boundaries, and rediscovering purpose—one sprout at a time.
Kellesia opens up about the dark years, the moment she named the harm, and the unexpected peace she found by planting tomatoes, herbs, and fruit trees. Companion planting becomes a lens for relationships: some companions protect and pollinate; others drain and destroy. That insight helped her set real boundaries, prune what hurt, and create space where growth could multiply. We also explore her 25-year cosmetology career and how the same nurturing approach shaped Shimmer and Shine, her garden-to-hair product line infused with rosemary, oregano, lemon balm, and chocolate mint for natural strength and shine without the heaviness.

Together we unpack the life of a seed—how anxiety tries to rush the future and depression clings to the past, while real growth honors the season. You cannot force a sprout; you can only plant again, water, protect, and wait. Kellesia shares how that wisdom fueled 19 books, a mission to help introverted women and children heal depression and childhood trauma through gardening, and a new coaching program that blends stories, a guided workbook, and practical steps to “grow through what you go through.” It’s a conversation about faith, resilience, and the quiet power of tending what’s already within you.

Tired of posting more and getting less? We dig into why the algorithm isn’t your real problem and how psychology-led messaging flips views into buyers. Wanda sits down with marketing strategist Diane Freeman, creator of the BUZZ framework and the force behind Bee Seen Social Media, to unpack a repeatable system for content that converts without burnout.

We start by dismantling the most persistent myths: that volume beats clarity and viral equals viable. Diane explains how marketers often teach what worked for them, not for you, and shows why resonance with a specific buyer matters more than follower count. From there, we break down the BUZZ framework—Brand identity, Unique value, Zone of genius, and Zinger—so you can articulate what you solve, how you’re different, who it’s for, and exactly what they should do next. The result is a cleaner message, a simpler path to action, and content that pulls its weight across platforms.

The conversation also covers platform strategy without the fluff: how LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok shape attention, why rented land is risky, and how to protect your momentum by capturing ownership and guiding users with clear CTAs like “Get Started.” We share practical collaboration plays—content shares, co-hosted lives, podcast swaps, co-built freebies, smart tagging—that multiply reach because they transfer trust. And if you feel stuck choosing between trends and silence, we give you a starting point: define your who, write their pains and outcomes in their words, and align every post to that map.

If you’re ready to replace noise with traction and make your message magnetic, press play. Subscribe, share this episode with a friend who needs a clarity reboot, and leave a review telling us the one BUZZ step you’ll implement this week.

What if the growth you want isn’t waiting in a new tactic, but on the other side of forgiveness? Sponsor Diane Freeman turns the mic on host Wanda Pearson for a candid, energizing takeover that traces Wanda’s journey from childhood trauma to a trusted coach, consultant, and author. We unpack how healing work translates into sharper decisions, better clients, and real momentum—and why “business as ministry” is more practical than it sounds.

Wanda breaks down her P.A.C.E method—Protect, Align, Create, Elevate—as a clear path to move from pain to purpose. Protect is about guarding your peace and boundaries so you stop leaking energy. Align brings your values, faith, and goals into agreement so your plans don’t fight your principles. Create focuses on building offers and systems from a calm center instead of panic. Elevate invites you to step into visibility and leadership with steady confidence. Along the way, we introduce LegalShield for affordable Legal protection as a stabilizer for families and small businesses, and how practical safeguards free you to pursue purpose.

The heart of the conversation is forgiveness. Not forgetting or excusing harm, but exchanging bitterness for peace so you can think clearly and act boldly. Wanda explains how unhealed hurt manifests as second-guessing, underpricing, and hiding from opportunities—what appears to be a “marketing problem” often begins as a heart problem. When leaders let go, creativity returns, boundaries strengthen, and sales stop feeling like a fight. Wanda shares the personal losses and unlikely yeses that shaped her calling, including writing books she once swore she would never write and building a community she now loves to serve.

If you’re feeling stuck, consider this your nudge: name the fear, start the conversation, and take the first step toward freedom.
