The Thought Leader Revolution Podcast | 10x Your Impact, Your Income & Your Influence

“I go after a lot of things as an entrepreneur. Probably 90% of the things may not happen on the timeline that I expect. But you better believe for that 10%, I’m gonna show up with the best attitude and energy that I have. Because I’m not gonna let the other 90% take away from my shine.”  The legal system wasn’t built for the human heart—but Tiffani Brown is changing that. Through her vision of human-centered law, she’s redefining what justice, service, and integrity look like in a world where entrepreneurs crave both success and soul. Her message is simple yet profound: law should protect people’s dreams, not bury them in paperwork.  Tiffani’s journey from big law to heart-driven entrepreneurship is a story of freedom and purpose. By paying off her $220,000 debt, walking away from corporate law, and creating My Legal Wellness, she turned her profession into a mission. She believes communities thrive when law is accessible, transparent, and grounded in compassion. Her philosophy blends strategy, spiritua

It’s a simple shift that changes the way opportunities show up.  Your expertise is more powerful than you think.

“If it’s all just business all the time, it’s actually way less rewarding.”  Success in business is not just about tactics or strategy—it’s about the strength of your relationships. Building genuine connections creates opportunities, opens doors to new audiences, and generates exponential growth. By leading with value first and nurturing trust, entrepreneurs can transform a single introduction into a steady pipeline of opportunities, clients, and collaborations.  Charles Byrd shares how he left Silicon Valley, leveraged his systems background, and built a seven-figure business by creating a streamlined process for joint ventures and partnerships. He explains how to get in front of ideal clients by tapping into existing communities, how to structure win-win deals, and why serving others first accelerates results. From referral parties to embedded partnerships, Charles gives practical examples of how relationship-based business can create both revenue and impact.  Charles is a joint venture expert, speak

“Successful people are decisive people.”  Every opportunity carries a hidden clock. Wait too long and the door closes—but act with speed and the world opens up in ways you can’t predict. The people who rise fastest aren’t the ones who wait for certainty, they’re the ones who move when others stall.  Inside this nugget is a story that reveals why some people attract wealth and others unknowingly push it away. It’s not about talent, luck, or even timing—it’s about what you signal when a chance lands in front of you. What would happen if you decided in seconds instead of days? What if you trained yourself to act with courage instead of hesitation? The answer might surprise you—and it could change the way you see every opportunity that crosses your path.  Learn more & connect:  Napolean Hill’s Think And Grow Rich: https://a.co/d/eRfAiFF  Visit https://www.eCircleAcademy.com and book a success call with Nicky to take your practice to the next level. 

“The opportunity to witness somebody else’s humanity through the noise, to see human being to human being in all the ways that we are similar and in all the ways that we are different.” Storytelling is more than performance—it’s the lifeblood of communication. The ability to translate complex ideas into human connection turns fear into freedom and nervousness into aliveness. Whether in business, politics, or personal growth, stories aren’t just about information; they’re about service, specificity, and sparking curiosity in others.  Eduardo shares how his own journey—from childhood show-and-tell to 15 years on stage, to coaching leaders around the world—shaped his philosophy. He explains how to turn anxiety into energy, why your anchor story is your most powerful tool, and how the art of empathy makes public speaking transformative. He insists that preparation is as much physical and emotional as it is intellectual, ensuring audiences don’t just hear you but feel you.  Eduardo Placer is the founder of

“Financial freedom is the freedom that makes all the other freedoms more easy and more possible.”  Vision is the spark that fuels freedom and creates the foundation for everything else in life. When you know where you’re headed, opportunities, people, and results start lining up to meet you.  Vision is more than an idea—it’s the driver behind helping entrepreneurs grow, serve, and succeed in ways that change their future. The path to freedom starts with clarity and expands through action.  The vision here is to create a billion multimillionaires and e-Circle Academy is the vehicle. This nugget is about defining your own vision and living it boldly.  Visit https://www.eCircleAcademy.com and book a success call with Nicky to take your practice to the next level. 

“World power is infinitely better than willpower.”  At the heart of every business breakthrough is the ability to turn hidden potential into repeatable skills. Freedom, friendship, and purpose aren’t things you stumble upon; they’re capabilities you can practice until they become second nature. When fundamentals like belonging, influence, and co-creation are mastered, advanced business skills—marketing, sales, partnerships, leadership—become natural extensions rather than uphill battles.  Dave Buck shares how persistence turned him from eager student to the right-hand man of Thomas Leonard, the father of professional life coaching. He unpacks the origins of the industry, the lessons of human connection, and the coaching methods that evolved from trial, error, and challenge. His journey proves that sometimes you don’t just choose a dream—the dream chooses you.  Buck is CEO of CoachVille and a pioneer who has spent 30 years shaping the profession of life coaching. As a mentee and daily collaborator of Th

“I just want to play all out and quit letting my fears hold me back. And one of the tenants that we have… is the only way out is through.”  True transformation begins when you realize that nothing outside of you needs fixing—you already have everything you need within. The journey to wholeness is not about becoming someone else but about recognizing your own completeness and living boldly from that truth.  Nicole Slade shares her powerful story of resilience, from a difficult upbringing and personal struggles to discovering the profound shift that comes from radical self-responsibility. Through her experience with transformational training, she learned the essential truth: you are enough exactly as you are. By embracing self-love and facing fears, she rebuilt her relationships, elevated her business, and created spaces where high-net-worth and high-heart-worth individuals connect with authenticity.  Nicole is the founder of AIM Elevated and co-founder of the nonprofit Trauma to Triumph. She hosts deepl

“Gratitude is something that you can create for yourself in an instant.”  Gratitude is more than a feeling—it’s a driver of growth. When energy is focused on positivity, belief, and excitement, new opportunities and stronger results naturally follow. Vibing high is not about luck but about choosing a mindset that attracts success.  Gratitude isn't necessarily a complex practice. It can come simply from noticing a sunrise, appreciating a smile, or even enjoying a fresh haircut. Small, everyday moments create momentum and open the door to bigger wins. By focusing on what is good, more good will arrive. The challenge is simple: ask what you are grateful for today. One clear thought of gratitude is enough to shift your vibration and spark a cycle of attraction. Staying in that state builds confidence, energy, and momentum for business, relationships, and life.  Visit https://www.eCircleAcademy.com and book a success call with Nicky to take your practice to the next level. 

“Start scared. Start before you’re ready.”  Lasting success rarely comes from waiting until the stars align—it comes from starting before you’re ready, staying consistent, and having the courage to take messy action. The principles that create real progress aren’t flashy; they’re rooted in clarity about what matters most and the discipline to align daily life with those values.  In this conversation, Lan Phan opens up about her journey of transformation—shifting from chasing titles to living with purpose. She highlights the power of small daily choices, the mindset required to build resilience, and the importance of asking for opportunities instead of waiting for them. Her perspective shows that fulfillment isn’t found in status but in designing a life that reflects your true priorities.  Lan Phan is the founder of Community of Seven, a global leadership strategist, keynote speaker, and author of Do This Daily. She equips leaders and entrepreneurs to align values, mindset, and habits so they can build

“The more grateful you are, the more gratitude you express in the world, the more gratitude the world will express to you.”  Gratitude isn’t just a nice idea—it’s a multiplier for relationships, energy, and business success. The simple act of expressing thanks creates a ripple effect that builds trust, deepens bonds, and opens doors. When you make gratitude a daily practice, you’re not just acknowledging others—you’re generating powerful momentum in your own life.  In this Nugget, is the impact of a simple daily discipline: sending five gratitude notes for 30 days. Just 150 notes can completely transform the way opportunities, connections, and abundance flow into your life. This challenge isn’t about technique or strategy—it’s about heart. When you commit to gratitude, you feel lighter, more inspired, and more connected. And when that happens, business, relationships, and life all expand in extraordinary ways.  Visit https://www.eCircleAcademy.com and book a success call with Nicky to take your practic

“The moment you break trust, the relationship shifts forever.”  Trust is the foundation of every lasting business relationship. Without it, deals collapse, teams fracture, and customers drift to competitors. In today’s world, where people are bombarded by noise and empty promises, credibility has become the most valuable currency an entrepreneur can hold.  This conversation reveals how trust can be built, protected, and scaled. Steve shares stories of how leaders who prioritize transparency, integrity, and follow-through don’t just gain loyal clients—they attract talent and opportunity that money can’t buy. His insights highlight that building trust isn’t a marketing trick; it’s a discipline that pays compound interest.  Steve, a seasoned entrepreneur, bestselling author, and leadership strategist, has advised companies across industries on how to grow sustainably by building trust into their culture. His work continues to influence how leaders approach sales, branding, and team-building in high-stak

“The single greatest thing that you as a heart-driven man can do is show your prospect that you care.”  Objections in sales often look like excuses—money, time, or the need for approval. But beneath the surface, they all point to the same hidden driver: fear. Prospects hesitate not because of what they say, but because of what they feel.  This episode reveals how objections really work and why most attempts to overcome them fail. Instead of battling in the head, the real breakthrough comes when the conversation shifts into the heart. The difference can decide whether a deal stalls or moves forward.  Walk away with a fresh way of seeing objections, a sharper understanding of what’s really being asked, and a practical framework to handle the toughest pushbacks.  Visit https://www.eCircleAcademy.com and book a success call with Nicky to take your practice to the next level. 

“Your thoughts drive your biology.”  True health isn’t built in a pill bottle — it starts with the food you eat, the air you breathe, and the thoughts you think. Today’s insights spotlight the root causes of autoimmune disease, why children are getting sicker younger, and how everyday toxins are quietly breaking down human health. The way forward? Listen to your body, screen early, and get upstream before symptoms become disease.  Dr. Ann Shippy shares her journey from IBM engineer to MD after chronic illness forced her to rethink medicine. Her functional approach blends traditional and environmental medicine to uncover root causes, especially for autoimmune and fertility challenges. From gut health to mitochondria, she shows how treating the whole body yields radical results. She’s now focused on changing the health of future generations—before conception even begins.  Dr. Shippy is a medical doctor and functional medicine practitioner. She’s the author of The Preconception Revolution. With 20 years o

“Being brave enough to suck at sales for the next month, two months, three months, six months, year, is what’s gonna have your business go from tragic to magic in the most uncommon of hours.”  Stepping into something new isn’t about instant mastery—it’s about embracing the messy, awkward, and uncomfortable first stages of learning. Growth happens when you push past the safety of what you know, take on challenges that stretch your skills, and keep showing up despite early failures. Progress is built on consistency, courage, and the willingness to look bad before you get good.  This is the power of “being brave enough to suck at something new,” especially when it comes to sales. Whether you’re a coach, consultant, or thought leader, avoiding the discomfort of new skills keeps you stuck on the same plateau. By committing to imperfect action, embracing the “suck,” and building momentum, you can go from struggling to closing deals with confidence and mastery.  Visit https://www.eCircleAcademy.com and book a

“The prerequisite for bravery is loyalty”  True loyalty isn’t just a feeling—it’s an unshakable commitment to stand beside those you care about, even when it puts you in harm’s way. Loyalty precedes bravery; without it, courage is hollow. When loyalty is your compass, you act not for applause, but because your word and your bond demand it.  Salman Sima embodies this truth. Having endured arrest, torture, and exile for defending friends and freedom in Iran, he’s never stopped fighting for liberty—whether on the streets of Tehran, in front of the UN, or here in Canada. His story shows that loyalty isn’t situational; it’s a lifelong vow.  Salman Sima is an Iranian-Canadian human rights activist and former political prisoner. A survivor of solitary confinement and brutal torture, he continues to lead campaigns against the Iranian regime, advocate for political unity, and speak globally on the price—and necessity—of freedom.

“In your business, you are inside the bottle. That’s why you can’t read the label.”  Getting out of “unflow” starts with one critical shift: stop trying to do it all alone. The path from stuck to success isn’t paved with solo hustle—it’s built with belief, encouragement, and community. You can’t read the label from inside the bottle, which is why getting help from people who see your blind spots is the key to making smart moves in your business and your life. The people around you determine how fast and far you go. This Nugget drops wisdom from Mark von Musser and a reminder that the “people game” is the only game that matters. When you surround yourself with aligned encouragers—those who call out your blind spots, believe in your mission, and challenge your growth—you unlock momentum and move with power. Flow requires fuel, and that fuel is other people. Visit https://www.eCircleAcademy.com and book a success call with Nicky to take your practice to the next level. 

“The thrill can last forever, it just needs a little help.”  Most couples aren’t struggling because of lack of love—they’re struggling because of unmet expectations, unspoken wounds, and the myth that good relationships should feel effortless. The truth is: thrill fades unless you create it. Passion, connection, and great sex don’t disappear over time—they disappear when you stop doing the things that made them possible.  Dr. Fraser breaks down why suffering in love isn’t caused by what happens to us—but by how we resist it. Drawing on Buddhist psychology, real-world sex therapy, and her trademark no-BS style, she shares how to reignite thrill, deepen intimacy, and recover sensuality—even after decades of distance. She’s bold, brilliant, and brutally honest.  Dr. Cheryl Fraser is a psychologist, sex therapist, and author of Buddha’s Bedroom. She leads immersive programs for couples and teaches the passion triangle: intimacy, thrill, and sensuality.  Expert action steps:  1. Reignite Thrill: Surprise

“I’ve never felt so much love, so much faith, so much belief for me as a human being.”  The fastest way to grow is to surround yourself with people who believe in your potential. A powerful peer group raises your standards, stretches your vision, and holds you accountable to your greatness. True transformation doesn’t happen in isolation—it’s forged in connection, challenge, and commitment.  Speaking at the Transformational Leadership Council pushed every button. Fear, faith, and full expression collided in a room of the world’s most elite transformational leaders. Sharing my wisdom wasn’t the hard part—trusting I belonged in the room was. And when I did, I walked out with not just new insights but new allies.  Jack Canfield’s TLC is more than a council—it’s a calibration point for what’s possible. Being there reminded me why community is everything. If you want to go fast, go alone. But if you want to go far—and live a life that matters—you go with others. And that’s the business model I’m building ev
