Book 101 Review in its Fifth season, featuring Susan Barber as my guest.

The Visibility Factor: Break Through Your Fears, Stand In Your Own Power And Become The Authentic Leader You Were Meant To Be For decades, people have believed that working hard is enough to get them promoted. The truth is that leaders need to create personal visibility for themselves and their teams.This was the situation in which Susan M. Barber found herself. A pivotal feedback conversation with a mentor was the catalyst that changed everything. She had to shift her long-held belief that working hard was sufficient for career success and finding a new way. She was on a path of discovery to learn what visibility meant in general, but more specifically how she could create it in an authentic way for herself. Barber created a process that helped her build visibility for herself and her team. Now, as a coach, she uses that same process to help her clients unlock their potential and achieve success when they are unable to see how they are hiding from their own visibility. She has broken down this process into easy-to-follow steps. The truth is, you need the kind of visibility that allows people to see your value and is authentic to who you are. The Visibility Factor is your guide to shaping the visibility you want for yourself and your career.Want to be a guest on Book 101 Review?

Living With Purpose and Power: Create Your Guiding Stars and Live Your Ultimate lifePeople talk all the time about finding a life purpose. Most never really feel they have a handle on what that is. It seems to be an imaginary state where, every day, you know who you are, what you are about, what to do, and feel excitedly engaged in your purpose.Perhaps, like you, I never knew what my purpose was. I had some vague ideas about what I was “supposed to do,” but no big purpose that created any fire in the belly.We all want to matter and have a big impact. We all want to have abundance. We deeply desire to love and be loved. We seek experiences we remember and treasure. We want deep and meaningful relationships. With all this wanting, most don’t really take the yearning to ground and create the life they desire.Want to be a guest on Book 101 Review?

Open-ear bone conduction technology functions by bypassing the traditional route of sound transmission through the outer and middle ear and instead delivers sound vibrations directly to the inner ear through the cheekbones. Transducers placed near the temples or cheekbones convert audio signals into subtle vibrations, which are then transmitted through the bones of the skull to the cochlea, the organ responsible for hearing. This innovative method allows users to perceive sound without obstructing the ear canal, leaving their ears open to their surrounding environment and can be beneficial and effective on those with hearing loss. Whether used for music, calls, or other audio content, open-ear bone conduction technology offers a comfortable and safe listening experience. Hosted on Acast.

Book 101 Review in its Fifth season, featuring Laura Buckley as my guest.

Thinking, Fast and Slow Two systems drive the way we think and make choices, Daniel Kahneman explains: System One is fast, intuitive, and emotional; System Two is slower, more deliberative, and more logical. Examining how both systems function within the mind, Kahneman exposes the extraordinary capabilities as well as the biases of fast thinking and the pervasive influence of intuitive impressions on our thoughts and our choices. Engaging the reader in a lively conversation about how we think, he shows where we can trust our intuitions and how we can tap into the benefits of slow thinking, contrasting the two-system view of the mind with the standard model of the rational economic agent.Kahneman's singularly influential work has transformed cognitive psychology and launched the new fields of behavioral economics and happiness studies. In this path-breaking book, Kahneman shows how the mind works, and offers practical and enlightening insights into how choices are made in both our business and personal lives--and how we can guard against the mental glitches that often get us into trouble.Want to be a guest on Book 101 Review?

Book 101 Review in its Fifth season, featuring Manny Skevofilax as my guest.

Ultimate Profit Management: Maximizing Profitability as You Grow Your BusinessThroughout the author’s career as a banker and business consultant, he has seen many examples of businesses that were doing just “fine.” They were profitable and growing slowly but surely, but then, the business owner decided that it wasn’t enough anymore to simply grow slowly. What was suddenly needed was growth of 20%, 50%, or even 100% per year, just like the notable companies they see and hear about every day in the media. They began to try to grow the business and in a short period, a profitable and thriving business became unprofitable. Since the business was no longer profitable, it needed to take on debt to pay its expenses. After taking on more and more debt, the business reached a point where it could not find any more debt to take on. This circumstance caused the business to fail to pay its bills anymore which led to a financial day of reckoning. Want to be a guest on Book 101 Review?

Jake DoberenzSmashing Modern Idols. Pointing People Back to Jesus.As a child, I was pretty convinced I had the Bible and Christianity all figured out. I knew all the answers, was obsessed with apologetics and creationism—so much so that I even started my own nonprofit—and I loved telling people they were wrong. My faith was mostly in my head, where a sense of certainty tied me to Jesus more than love.I wanted to be the Christian version of everything (Christian lawyer, Christian politician, etc.). But eventually, I settled on becoming a Bible major so I could teach the correct view of Scripture to other Christians who would go out and inhabit the other fields. But as I pursued a Bachelor's in Biblical Studies and later a Master of Theological Studies (at a conservative Christian school, mind you), I quickly realized how little I actually knew.I started encountering the Bible in a whole new way—learning to ask it questions on its own terms, rather than trying to force it to answer the modern issues I wished it would. That shift opened my eyes to a new vision of faith: one centered on Jesus, not on bashing people over the head with a Bible.Want to be a guest on Book 101 Review?

Book 101 Review in its Fifth season, featuring Chad Murray as my guest.

Operation Entrepreneur Freedom: Go Get Yourself in Trouble Are you dreaming to start your own business or you have already made the leap into business ownership. This book is a lot of "what to do", a lot of "what not to do's", and a little of got lucky by accidental doing it right the first time. An entertaining tale of how a poor kid from divorced parents dreamt, started, operated, retired from, and went into true entrepreneurship freedom. This book is to encourage anyone wanting to build a business from scratch or an existing one to heights they have never imagined.The foundation of any small business is systems, culture, mindset, and financial education. Schools, parents, and most jobs do not teach these principles successfully to operate a small business in America which leaves you with a "trial and error" way of business.My goal is to have you skip all the unnecessary back steps. Teaching you to not making those mistakes most business owners tend to make from not having the experience or education to avoid them. The take away from this book is "You don't know what you don't know". I hope to get you enough education from my sometimes funny stories of my business growth for you not to make the same sometimes huge mistakes I unfortunately made.Operation Entrepreneur Freedom is your path to streamlining your business to be able to outline a path to successful operations and a way to build the business you wanted when you dreamt of first owning your own business.Want to be a guest on Book 101 Review?

If confronted with cancer, how would you feel? What would you say to the people you love? What would they say to you?No two people have the same answers to these questions, a lesson I learned well during a solo six-week, 5,000-mile cross-country bike ride I called Cycle of Lives. The trip started as a fundraiser in honor of my sister, June, who died of brain cancer. But long before I even set out on my endurance ride from L.A. to Florida to N.Y., I exhaustively interviewed fifteen people across the country whose lives had also been irrevocably changed by cancer—either as patients, survivors, loved ones, or caregivers.Want to be a guest on Book 101 Review?
