It’s How You Do It

“It’s not what you’re doing it’s how you’re doing it.”

-Janna & Tom.

We both shared this idea in our own way throughout this episode.

And it is the perfect way to conclude this wonderful series of conversations.

How you do something matters.

How you treat yourself and others along the way matters even more than what you might create.

Let’s talk about it.

Here is the final episode 4 of 4 from the ‘Janna is brilliant and bold and here all month!’ February 2023 series.

Here is how you can connect with Janna.

Friction Creates Spiritual Growth (W/ Special Guest Janna Joyner)

Ok.

Yes.

Exactly Where We’re Supposed to Be (W/ Special Guest Janna Joyner)

“Where we are today is exactly where we’re supposed to be…

…and we could not be there if it weren’t for those moments

…that at the time felt devastating.”

-JANNA JOYNER (Y’ALL!!!!!!!!)

YES! Janna HAS returned!!!!!

For 4 back to back episodes.

I’m so excited.

Here is episode 1 (of 4) from the ‘Janna is brilliant and bold and here all month!’ February 2023 series.

Writing Emails That Convert with Samar Owais

Original Air Date: May 18, 2018

Let’s say you were to ask Samar Owais to be your copywriter, and to sprinkle her magic on your email sequences. You’d need to be prepared to cut a check with a lot of zeros. 

In other words, Samar is a seriously sought after copywriter who crafts emails that convert lurkers into customers – then into repeat customers, and finally into raving fans. 

If you are an entrepreneur – from any industry – you need to be tapping into the full potential of your email list.

On this week’s episode, Samar really breaks down the ins and outs of writing email sequences. Whether we’re talking about a sales sequence, nurture sequence, abandoned cart sequence, whatever: if you’re sending it by email, she drops the gems on this one. 

This episode is especially for the folks who are sick of staring at a blank screen when trying to craft an email. Plus, Samar gives you series insights into the research you need to do before you even start writing your first email. 

Samar’s insight is really meant to empower you with the tools you need, so you can ultimately work with clients and customers that excite you and allow you to raise your prices. 

Now if you’re thinking, “wow Tom, I’m not sure I can do 60 minutes of geeking out about email copywriting.” Don’t worry. I got you. 

Samar and I also discussed: 

- Entrepreneurial mindset

- How to overcome challenges and adversity, especially when trying to pivot from one job to the next

- Owning your identity especially in the face of bias and/or discrimination

- Activating your innate power

- Communicating with passion, purpose and clarity

All this to say: do yourself the favor of hitting play on this epic interview. Samar delivers serious value and offers some amazing insights. 

Here we go. 

You can get in touch with Samar from her website.

Gifts For You Ep. 13 Featuring Crysta Tyus and London Jones

This week we bring you our 13th episode of this series; a conversation with Crysta Tyus and London Jones.

Here is the background on this project:

In the last few months leading up to my daughter’s birth, I began a podcast project.

I had a few intentions with this project. 

I wanted her to have a set of recordings that could serve as a time capsule of what life was like just as she was arriving.  And for her to begin life already surrounded by a community who was invested in her. 

In the end, I interviewed over 20 people for this project.

I began these recordings in the late summer of 2019.  

Little did I know what was awaiting all of us just around the corner. 

As I’ve been relistening to these recordings I have found deep meaning in each conversation, and I hope you will appreciate them too.

That is why we are starting the 2022 season of THE Celebration podcast by sharing a newly edited edition of these interviews. 

The series is entitled: Gifts For You. 

It will span 13 episodes in total. 

I hope you enjoy it.
