Brand Clarity, Longevity & Legacy: Rich Kozak on Building Brands That Live in Hearts, Not Just Logos

What if your brand isn’t your logo — but the feeling people have when they think of you?

In this bold, heartfelt conversation, Adrienne Barker sits down with Rich Kozak, founder of Rich Brands and Impact Driven Publishing, to uncover what most entrepreneurs miss about branding — and how clarity becomes the foundation for both business longevity and legacy. Rich shares insights from his 49-year career helping individuals and companies “language” their brand so it speaks authentically to the hearts of those they serve. From defining your umbrella brand to avoiding the six consequences of unclear branding, this episode is a masterclass in purpose-driven impact.

Adrienne opens up about her own multi-passion journey — from etiquette to podcasting — and puts herself in the “branding hot seat” to explore how passion, energy, and clarity can finally align under one cohesive vision.

Key Takeaways

→ Your brand is not your logo or slogan — it’s a perception in the minds of those you want to impact.

The six consequences of unclear branding: confusion, misinformation, wasted marketing, lost credit, competitors pulling ahead, and lost time.

→ How to create an umbrella brand that connects every part of your business with authenticity.

→ Why branding is God’s work — when you align your gifts with the impact you’re meant to make.

→ The difference between “branding” and “marketing” — and why clarity must come first.

→ How defining and languaging your brand can transform your fulfillment, focus, and results.

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.120
It's you, my guests, in the book. And the book

00:00:03.120 --> 00:00:05.500
is a narrative, so it's not a transcript. Hi,

00:00:05.639 --> 00:00:08.199
everyone, we're live. I know it's weird that

00:00:08.199 --> 00:00:12.589
it's 10 o 'clock in the morning or 10, 15. So

00:00:12.589 --> 00:00:14.810
sorry, market domination. I'll be back to work

00:00:14.810 --> 00:00:17.289
in a few minutes, but I also have a producer

00:00:17.289 --> 00:00:19.609
of podcasts, which I do a variety of different

00:00:19.609 --> 00:00:21.730
things. I've had so many hats on this morning

00:00:21.730 --> 00:00:24.050
that my hair already, my bangs do not look good.

00:00:24.050 --> 00:00:26.030
And that's kind of like my brand, but anyway,

00:00:26.129 --> 00:00:30.530
so welcome everyone. Okay. Our guest, he is obviously

00:00:30.530 --> 00:00:33.770
bright. He's obviously brilliant because he's

00:00:33.770 --> 00:00:37.119
here with us. He's not bald. Unfortunately, because

00:00:37.119 --> 00:00:40.039
I like my bald jokes but can't lie with you,

00:00:40.219 --> 00:00:45.340
Rich. But Rich is totally on. brand. Very cool.

00:00:45.439 --> 00:00:48.700
His company is rich brands. How cool is that?

00:00:48.840 --> 00:00:51.240
I wish I grew up and had a name like rich. I'm

00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:54.939
not just like Adrian, yo Adrian. So I don't know

00:00:54.939 --> 00:00:56.859
anything about rich. He started talking. I'm

00:00:56.859 --> 00:00:59.539
like, wait, save it for this podcast right here.

00:00:59.579 --> 00:01:03.000
Cause I want, I know if there's a piece of my

00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:05.760
whole, you know, Google me kind of, you know,

00:01:05.879 --> 00:01:08.340
look who I am. You're going to be like clarity.

00:01:08.540 --> 00:01:11.359
And how do you get clarity? Anyways, if you have

00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:13.560
doing so many different things. So first, let's

00:01:13.560 --> 00:01:15.359
have rich introduce himself because I have no

00:01:15.359 --> 00:01:18.459
clue who he is. And then we're going to work

00:01:18.459 --> 00:01:21.099
on and talk about one thing. And it's going to

00:01:21.099 --> 00:01:25.299
be me today. But use me as the example of a poorly,

00:01:25.959 --> 00:01:30.659
not really clear company who maybe herself, the

00:01:30.659 --> 00:01:34.500
owner is not really sure on her own clarity and

00:01:34.500 --> 00:01:36.909
bread. So everyone meet rich brands. I mean,

00:01:37.010 --> 00:01:41.870
Rich Kozak from Rich Brands. Well, good morning

00:01:41.870 --> 00:01:47.790
and thank you for that upbeat setup, Adrienne.

00:01:47.950 --> 00:01:51.870
My name is Rich Kozak and I am the founder of

00:01:51.870 --> 00:01:56.530
Rich Brands and Impact Driven Publishing. So

00:01:56.530 --> 00:02:01.430
for 49 years now, and I'm not done, I have been

00:02:01.430 --> 00:02:05.989
defining and languaging brands and launching

00:02:05.989 --> 00:02:11.009
them. What that means is connecting to why an

00:02:11.009 --> 00:02:15.449
individual starts their business and literally

00:02:15.449 --> 00:02:19.969
building clarity into the way their brand, either

00:02:19.969 --> 00:02:23.810
as an individual or an entity, speaks, shows

00:02:23.810 --> 00:02:29.069
up, promotes. how others respond to them in testimonial

00:02:29.069 --> 00:02:32.250
or endorsement and guiding that and the things

00:02:32.250 --> 00:02:35.490
they do, the stakes in the ground that they place

00:02:35.490 --> 00:02:39.030
to strategically move forward, books, programs,

00:02:39.370 --> 00:02:42.169
products and services, whatever it is for their

00:02:42.169 --> 00:02:46.189
particular area of expertise or their business

00:02:46.189 --> 00:02:51.949
or their calling, whatever they consider it.

00:02:53.730 --> 00:02:58.550
Today, after most a large chart part of my career,

00:02:58.969 --> 00:03:01.969
I ran, I was the executive vice president and

00:03:01.969 --> 00:03:04.689
head of new business development at a what you

00:03:04.689 --> 00:03:08.129
might call back in the day, a high tech ad agency,

00:03:08.669 --> 00:03:12.330
a business to business agency that taught big

00:03:12.330 --> 00:03:16.110
companies what branding is and the process of

00:03:16.110 --> 00:03:19.870
it, and then guided them through preparing them

00:03:19.870 --> 00:03:23.449
for the next stage of their strategic success

00:03:23.449 --> 00:03:27.569
today and for the last 10 years actually. So

00:03:27.569 --> 00:03:30.550
this is the 10th year I've been working only

00:03:30.550 --> 00:03:33.949
with individuals. So if you're listening to this

00:03:33.949 --> 00:03:37.860
today, I'm talking to you. Uh, in addition to

00:03:37.860 --> 00:03:40.300
talking to Adrian, but I'm, I'm literally speaking

00:03:40.300 --> 00:03:44.139
to you and into your heart that individuals.

00:03:44.509 --> 00:03:47.930
our brands and we'll deal with that very early

00:03:47.930 --> 00:03:50.770
in this. What is a brand? How do you even think

00:03:50.770 --> 00:03:53.050
about what your brand is? And I can do that in

00:03:53.050 --> 00:03:56.030
two sentences and you will never see it the same

00:03:56.030 --> 00:04:00.110
way again. Thank goodness. Okay. What, how do

00:04:00.110 --> 00:04:05.050
you think about the brand you are and what brand

00:04:05.050 --> 00:04:10.430
do you get to become to be successful at where

00:04:10.430 --> 00:04:12.780
you're going? That's what we're going to talk

00:04:12.780 --> 00:04:16.480
about today. We do it all day long with individuals

00:04:16.480 --> 00:04:20.560
and there are wonderful guidelines and tips and

00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:23.360
steps and language and it's not jargon language.

00:04:23.420 --> 00:04:26.560
It's not tricky talk. It's not, well, you need

00:04:26.560 --> 00:04:28.680
a, and I'll use a term you've never heard or

00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:30.459
you don't really know what it means. So you think,

00:04:30.779 --> 00:04:34.560
Oh, I need a guru. You don't need a guru. You

00:04:34.560 --> 00:04:37.779
get to understand it's just steps. And when you

00:04:37.779 --> 00:04:42.120
leave steps out, it doesn't work well. So like

00:04:42.120 --> 00:04:46.379
knowing the steps and doing them put you on a

00:04:46.379 --> 00:04:50.600
very good path to succeed at what you want to

00:04:50.600 --> 00:04:54.519
succeed at. So welcome to Rich Brands. Well,

00:04:54.620 --> 00:04:57.879
yeah, I think I'm putting myself in the hot seat,

00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:02.089
volunteering because hey, this is going to be

00:05:02.089 --> 00:05:03.930
free therapy for me. So I'm really excited about

00:05:03.930 --> 00:05:08.589
this. But no, seriously. So yeah, I have a vision.

00:05:08.670 --> 00:05:12.029
I have a mission. But I really that's the one

00:05:12.029 --> 00:05:13.949
thing. And what I hear a lot of times from people

00:05:13.949 --> 00:05:16.829
is, but I'm doing so many things. OK, so yes,

00:05:16.829 --> 00:05:19.790
I have my new book, which is from the podcast.

00:05:20.189 --> 00:05:22.610
The logo doesn't match. I'm not using my face.

00:05:22.610 --> 00:05:25.689
I'm just calling it unscripted brilliance. So

00:05:25.689 --> 00:05:27.670
unless you're familiar with the show, it's kind

00:05:27.670 --> 00:05:32.220
of probably not as What is the word that I'm

00:05:32.220 --> 00:05:36.100
trying to say? Congruent. Yes, thank you. You're

00:05:36.100 --> 00:05:39.639
welcome. But it's weird for me because I have

00:05:39.639 --> 00:05:41.980
professional global etiquette, which I'm a graduate

00:05:41.980 --> 00:05:44.740
of the Protocol School of Washington with my

00:05:44.740 --> 00:05:47.459
certified corporate etiquette and international

00:05:47.459 --> 00:05:52.800
protocol consultation. So I have that. And then

00:05:52.800 --> 00:05:55.879
I have 35 years in the logo branded business,

00:05:56.139 --> 00:06:00.399
promotional products. AKA swag. So branded merch,

00:06:00.459 --> 00:06:03.379
I'm very familiar with, right? And then I have,

00:06:03.560 --> 00:06:07.000
I'm a podcast producer, started with market domination.

00:06:07.939 --> 00:06:11.500
That brings me passion. I love working with Winey

00:06:11.500 --> 00:06:13.939
Palooza podcast, Rebecca Green and Grow Your

00:06:13.939 --> 00:06:15.839
Business, Grow Your Wealth with Gary Helt and

00:06:15.839 --> 00:06:17.899
a couple of other podcasts. I produced a podcast

00:06:17.899 --> 00:06:21.980
and that brings me joy. And I love that. I love

00:06:21.980 --> 00:06:27.920
my own podcast. I am a true crime host wi the

00:06:27.920 --> 00:06:33.920
news true crime only p are live with an audience

00:06:33.920 --> 00:06:38.459
live that week airs twice I've never seen in

00:06:38.459 --> 00:06:47.699
my lif more downloads than I've Crime is big

00:06:47.699 --> 00:06:50.300
and I do a true crime hour with Debbie where

00:06:50.300 --> 00:06:53.379
we do true crime news. And then I also have a

00:06:53.379 --> 00:06:56.180
new podcast I created. That's the only first

00:06:56.180 --> 00:06:59.660
AI driven debate style podcast for the etiquette

00:06:59.660 --> 00:07:02.680
industry. So with all that said, I'm like, okay,

00:07:02.939 --> 00:07:06.319
obviously I had one client about six months ago

00:07:06.319 --> 00:07:10.220
that said, wow, you are a creator. and a creative

00:07:10.220 --> 00:07:13.439
with a business background. And I thought, oh,

00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:15.759
that's cool. I wrote one blog about it because

00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:17.439
I thought that's a cool thing. But even that's

00:07:17.439 --> 00:07:20.199
not very clear. And so if you were to ask me,

00:07:20.319 --> 00:07:21.959
I'd say, OK, that's probably the focus, right?

00:07:22.220 --> 00:07:25.759
I have a business experience, eight years with

00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:28.959
SCORE, the first chairwoman here of SCORE, S

00:07:28.959 --> 00:07:32.160
-C -O -R -E dot org, a certified business mentor.

00:07:32.319 --> 00:07:37.410
But I was the chairwoman here for Volu years.

00:07:37.810 --> 00:07:41.569
I love score. What They were, I was, I start

00:07:41.569 --> 00:07:45.889
Arizona, came here in Da became the chair, but,

00:07:46.370 --> 00:07:51.430
but to like hone in my business tight, right?

00:07:51.470 --> 00:07:56.449
So I, I have all these different websites, Facebook,

00:07:56.709 --> 00:08:04.720
everything. Um, all together is my face, right?

00:08:04.819 --> 00:08:07.199
And even that's changed. I mean, some days my

00:08:07.199 --> 00:08:11.060
face is like this, we're like that. So I feel

00:08:11.060 --> 00:08:12.959
like, yeah, people are like, I don't even know

00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:15.720
what she does. And the one thing that helps me

00:08:15.720 --> 00:08:18.000
in my business is my passion, just my energy

00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:21.879
and my excitement and my love for the work, but

00:08:21.879 --> 00:08:24.800
how can you sell passion? So there you have it,

00:08:25.060 --> 00:08:32.120
I'm all ears and eyes. Well, ask me a question.

00:08:33.700 --> 00:08:35.720
Yeah, so this is the big thing. So first, let's

00:08:35.720 --> 00:08:37.419
go into evolving plans. Unless you just want

00:08:37.419 --> 00:08:40.200
me to just reflect and I can reflect. Well, I

00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:41.759
love that, I want to just, before you start,

00:08:41.899 --> 00:08:43.899
I want to understand each section. So we've got

00:08:43.899 --> 00:08:46.940
clarity, longevity, how long a business has been.

00:08:47.100 --> 00:08:50.879
Well, so you can do what you love for more decades.

00:08:51.259 --> 00:08:56.539
Yeah, absolutely. So it has a roadmap and a strategic

00:08:56.539 --> 00:09:01.779
path and that it grows and you can continue doing

00:09:01.779 --> 00:09:03.879
what brings you joy and what you really love

00:09:03.879 --> 00:09:07.139
for more decades. So it's a combination of aspects

00:09:07.139 --> 00:09:09.899
and longevity, longevity for the brand, but also

00:09:09.899 --> 00:09:15.309
longevity for you. I love the word longevity.

00:09:16.009 --> 00:09:20.830
Sorry, go ahead. I'm an organic chef. We grow

00:09:20.830 --> 00:09:23.490
a lot of our own food here. I'm in the middle

00:09:23.490 --> 00:09:25.710
of Los Angeles, but I have gardens and I love

00:09:25.710 --> 00:09:30.549
to cook. And I love to pay attention to truth

00:09:30.549 --> 00:09:32.870
about what we put in our body and on our body.

00:09:33.029 --> 00:09:35.889
So for decades, the kitchen has gotten cleaner

00:09:35.889 --> 00:09:38.909
and cleaner. And our choices of what to eat and

00:09:38.909 --> 00:09:41.509
when to eat and how to eat have gotten better

00:09:41.509 --> 00:09:44.110
and better. And I love to eat and I love to cook.

00:09:45.389 --> 00:09:48.529
The longevity has to do with a lot of things.

00:09:48.929 --> 00:09:54.470
I think probably the most excellent, and it sounds

00:09:54.470 --> 00:09:58.049
a little bit exaggerated, an excellent source

00:09:58.049 --> 00:10:02.210
to wrap a brain around longevity is Peter Diamandis'

00:10:02.629 --> 00:10:06.110
book by that name, Longevity. Peter Diamandis

00:10:06.110 --> 00:10:09.129
is surrounded by companies he owns that are involved

00:10:09.129 --> 00:10:13.730
in the technologies of managing aging in many,

00:10:13.769 --> 00:10:17.809
many ways and health. And he wrote a book said,

00:10:17.950 --> 00:10:19.990
look, because I'm surrounded by this technology

00:10:19.990 --> 00:10:22.629
and I have access to it and I can afford it,

00:10:22.629 --> 00:10:24.929
you know, anything I want to do. Um, like if

00:10:24.929 --> 00:10:27.190
he wants injections of stem cells, he can get

00:10:27.190 --> 00:10:28.529
them, you know, at 10 grand a month, you know,

00:10:28.529 --> 00:10:31.230
he can get, but he says, so I'm writing a book

00:10:31.230 --> 00:10:34.649
saying, here's what I'm doing so that I last

00:10:34.649 --> 00:10:37.590
for more decades. Because people ask me all the

00:10:37.590 --> 00:10:39.330
time, what are you doing? They want to know what

00:10:39.330 --> 00:10:41.009
I'm doing. So he writes a book. It's a great

00:10:41.009 --> 00:10:45.399
book. And it's very small and it's a. Peter Diamandis

00:10:45.399 --> 00:10:47.240
on longevity. Anyway, I really recommend everybody

00:10:47.240 --> 00:10:51.080
reads it. He also to keep your upbeat attitude

00:10:51.080 --> 00:10:53.799
about the world, you know, instead of, oh my

00:10:53.799 --> 00:10:56.840
God, the world is going to, you know, you see

00:10:56.840 --> 00:10:59.000
like, oh, the world is such an exciting place

00:10:59.000 --> 00:11:01.440
and we're overcoming problems in ways we've never

00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:04.240
had before. Like not most people think that.

00:11:04.799 --> 00:11:08.820
He wrote a book called abundance in 2014. Read

00:11:08.820 --> 00:11:11.559
it. It'll blow your mind. Peter Diamandis is

00:11:11.559 --> 00:11:13.220
abundance. And I'm not here to sell Peter. He's

00:11:13.220 --> 00:11:16.080
not my friend. I don't know him personally, but

00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:20.000
those two literally will help you shift your

00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:23.139
life, last longer. And absolutely, you know,

00:11:23.159 --> 00:11:25.299
if you ever get in a, you know, you watch too

00:11:25.299 --> 00:11:27.399
much news one day or something and you go like,

00:11:27.820 --> 00:11:29.940
man, it's going to the, we're, we're on a hell

00:11:29.940 --> 00:11:32.620
and a half. Just grab abundance and read a chapter

00:11:32.620 --> 00:11:35.559
and you'll go, Oh no. No, it's good. We're at

00:11:35.559 --> 00:11:38.240
a really good track. Yeah. It's like the future

00:11:38.240 --> 00:11:42.720
is bright. Yeah. Okay. So let's talk about how

00:11:42.720 --> 00:11:45.639
a future can be bright for you listening to this

00:11:45.639 --> 00:11:50.279
and how you can literally start making your future

00:11:50.279 --> 00:11:52.840
bright. If you're right at the beginning of doing

00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:55.340
what you're doing, or you're ding dang in the

00:11:55.340 --> 00:11:58.340
middle of it, or You've been doing it for 20

00:11:58.340 --> 00:12:02.559
or 30 years and you feel like you want to build

00:12:02.559 --> 00:12:04.679
the steps to the next level. You know, you know,

00:12:04.679 --> 00:12:08.500
there is more, you want to improve your impacts,

00:12:09.100 --> 00:12:11.580
you know, increase your significant presence,

00:12:11.899 --> 00:12:15.600
build a legacy, but, but the gate to the next

00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:18.820
level is locked. It was like, what do you do?

00:12:19.039 --> 00:12:22.360
Okay. I have a client. Lou vickery who used to

00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:25.240
pitch for the New York Yankees back in the 60s

00:12:25.240 --> 00:12:28.460
and he's from Alabama and one day he said reach

00:12:28.460 --> 00:12:32.200
what I do Okay. Well that is a very common question

00:12:32.200 --> 00:12:34.700
from human beings people want to know what to

00:12:34.700 --> 00:12:40.620
do and branding is People people people really

00:12:40.620 --> 00:12:43.980
don't know what it is They have a perception

00:12:43.980 --> 00:12:46.860
of what it is to them if they think it's logos

00:12:46.860 --> 00:12:50.039
or a campaign or a quick line or whatever Whatever

00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:53.399
or their face or is no, but I so I'm gonna start

00:12:53.399 --> 00:12:55.360
there because it's the elephant in the room May

00:12:55.360 --> 00:12:58.720
I it'll help you It'll help everyone listening

00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:00.580
to this ready here goes. I told you I would do

00:13:00.580 --> 00:13:04.100
it in two sentences here goes ready your brand,

00:13:04.120 --> 00:13:07.779
and please write this down. I mean, I know it's

00:13:07.779 --> 00:13:13.500
just a few words, but write it down so that you

00:13:13.500 --> 00:13:17.659
remember to remember it, okay? My brand is a

00:13:17.659 --> 00:13:25.220
perception, period. However, it's not my perception,

00:13:27.240 --> 00:13:31.620
period. So a little background. You can talk

00:13:31.620 --> 00:13:34.720
about your brand for three seconds or three minutes

00:13:34.720 --> 00:13:38.039
or three hours and tell me all about your brand.

00:13:38.120 --> 00:13:41.460
It doesn't matter what you say. It doesn't matter

00:13:41.460 --> 00:13:46.220
what you think your brand is. Your brand is a

00:13:46.220 --> 00:13:50.899
perception, but it's not your perception. It's

00:13:50.899 --> 00:13:56.480
the perception in the mind of your most important

00:13:56.620 --> 00:14:01.080
target audiences, those individuals, maybe their

00:14:01.080 --> 00:14:05.059
companies, maybe their countries. OK, it's the

00:14:05.059 --> 00:14:09.720
perception in the mind of those people whom you

00:14:09.720 --> 00:14:15.379
most want to impact. And you clearly see the

00:14:15.379 --> 00:14:19.360
impacts you are going to make on them. And you

00:14:19.360 --> 00:14:24.409
really want to. It's the perception. in their

00:14:24.409 --> 00:14:28.429
mind. We're not talking about people 25 ,000

00:14:28.429 --> 00:14:30.970
miles away who love to pet giraffes. I don't

00:14:30.970 --> 00:14:33.250
have any problem with giraffes, but if giraffes

00:14:33.250 --> 00:14:34.690
don't have anything to do with your business,

00:14:34.870 --> 00:14:38.269
don't worry about them. It's the people whose

00:14:38.269 --> 00:14:43.950
minds you get to shape the perception in the

00:14:43.950 --> 00:14:48.490
minds of those individuals whom you really, you

00:14:48.490 --> 00:14:52.429
clearly see the impacts. you are going to make

00:14:52.429 --> 00:14:57.389
and you really want to impact them. It's their

00:14:57.389 --> 00:15:01.330
perception. So if a brand is a perception, and

00:15:01.330 --> 00:15:04.049
it's not yours, what is branding? Write this

00:15:04.049 --> 00:15:09.750
down. Branding, now that you know that your brand

00:15:09.750 --> 00:15:12.529
is a perception in the minds of your most important

00:15:12.529 --> 00:15:17.350
target audiences, branding is everything you

00:15:17.350 --> 00:15:20.879
get to do. parenthetically, none of us have the

00:15:20.879 --> 00:15:24.480
money or time to do everything, close parenthesis.

00:15:24.879 --> 00:15:28.960
It's all those things you get to do that shape

00:15:28.960 --> 00:15:35.360
a consistent perception in the minds of your

00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:39.919
most important target audiences. It's shaping

00:15:39.919 --> 00:15:46.259
a consistent perception in those minds. of your

00:15:46.259 --> 00:15:49.019
most important target audiences. Now you can

00:15:49.019 --> 00:15:51.659
have multiple target audiences. I'm not the guy

00:15:51.659 --> 00:15:54.299
that's going to tell you, you need to narrow

00:15:54.299 --> 00:15:57.679
down and have one and use fancy language. It's

00:15:57.679 --> 00:16:00.580
not realistic. One of your target audiences might

00:16:00.580 --> 00:16:02.460
be about to retire. One of your target audience

00:16:02.460 --> 00:16:04.399
might be about to start their career. Those are

00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:07.100
two very different mindsets. It might be a couple.

00:16:09.279 --> 00:16:11.559
Like we said, it might be a company. It might

00:16:11.559 --> 00:16:15.519
be an industry. It might be a country. eventually,

00:16:16.139 --> 00:16:19.179
but in doing the work, we start with an individual

00:16:19.179 --> 00:16:22.980
because it's much easier to conceptualize and

00:16:22.980 --> 00:16:27.879
it doesn't feel complex. So that's the starting

00:16:27.879 --> 00:16:33.840
point. Envisioning the impacts you clearly see

00:16:33.840 --> 00:16:37.340
making. You can close your eyes and do it. Matter

00:16:37.340 --> 00:16:40.039
of fact, I kind of recommend it. You close your

00:16:40.039 --> 00:16:42.360
eyes and think about, look, when this is thriving

00:16:42.360 --> 00:16:45.750
and I don't mean that to be a jargon word. Thriving

00:16:45.750 --> 00:16:48.289
means everything is working. In other words,

00:16:48.929 --> 00:16:52.210
you know, if you, whatever your, whatever activities

00:16:52.210 --> 00:16:54.149
you're doing, if you're coaching, people love

00:16:54.149 --> 00:16:55.809
your coach. If you wrote a book, they love you

00:16:55.809 --> 00:16:57.830
and they say, well, it changed my life. You create

00:16:57.830 --> 00:17:00.269
a weekend retreat. People attend and they say

00:17:00.269 --> 00:17:04.069
it was master of transformation. Whatever you're

00:17:04.069 --> 00:17:07.049
doing in that thriving picture that you imagine

00:17:07.049 --> 00:17:10.069
is working and you are thriving. financially,

00:17:11.069 --> 00:17:14.109
attitudinally, you're full with joy and fulfillment

00:17:14.109 --> 00:17:19.950
because you're stepping into the impacts you

00:17:19.950 --> 00:17:23.450
clearly see making when you're thriving, when

00:17:23.450 --> 00:17:28.549
your brand is thriving. Okay, so you picture

00:17:28.549 --> 00:17:33.470
that. That's the first step. Why? Because it

00:17:33.470 --> 00:17:38.240
focuses on impacts. And it's the impact. It's

00:17:38.240 --> 00:17:42.099
not just, Oh, what, what impact look, it comes

00:17:42.099 --> 00:17:44.460
from your heart, not from your head. It's not

00:17:44.460 --> 00:17:48.079
like what impacts can I make? Oh, I could. No,

00:17:48.180 --> 00:17:50.700
it comes from your heart. It's the impact. You

00:17:50.700 --> 00:17:54.660
clearly see making and you really want to make.

00:17:54.660 --> 00:17:56.779
It's not the impacts you have to make or the

00:17:56.779 --> 00:17:59.920
world says you, it's not some predetermined stuff.

00:18:00.240 --> 00:18:05.259
It comes from inside you. So when you do that

00:18:05.259 --> 00:18:10.690
now, you're mining the clarity that is probably

00:18:10.690 --> 00:18:15.750
missing in your brand. Because most brands lack

00:18:15.750 --> 00:18:20.589
clarity and most brands fall flat. Fall flat

00:18:20.589 --> 00:18:22.549
means you say, and people say, oh yeah, what

00:18:22.549 --> 00:18:24.829
do you do? And you describe it. Maybe you describe

00:18:24.829 --> 00:18:26.730
a bunch of things like you did a moment ago.

00:18:26.890 --> 00:18:28.710
I have a book, but I have pocket, but I'm a book.

00:18:28.930 --> 00:18:31.150
But you know what an international, you know,

00:18:31.190 --> 00:18:33.309
the etiquette industry, etiquette, I even know

00:18:33.309 --> 00:18:36.490
there wasn't it. Okay. And they go, oh, I thought,

00:18:36.589 --> 00:18:38.769
wait a minute. Did you do, but you do this, but

00:18:38.769 --> 00:18:42.130
confusion, misinformation. Okay. Okay. Yeah.

00:18:42.529 --> 00:18:46.710
The clarity that is lacking. And so here's fall

00:18:46.710 --> 00:18:50.779
flat, fall flat is, oh, that's nice. That's it.

00:18:51.140 --> 00:18:53.220
Yeah, it's almost like they left their cigarette

00:18:53.220 --> 00:18:54.720
burning and crossed the room and they need to

00:18:54.720 --> 00:18:57.000
get back to it But maybe they don't even smoke.

00:18:57.000 --> 00:18:58.920
They just you know, they go. Oh, that's nice.

00:18:58.980 --> 00:19:04.140
That's it Here's a brand when a brand comes alive.

00:19:04.359 --> 00:19:07.319
It sounds and looks different Literally when

00:19:07.319 --> 00:19:09.660
you say to somebody what you do their head tilts

00:19:09.660 --> 00:19:14.579
on the side and they go. Oh Okay, I think oh

00:19:14.579 --> 00:19:16.960
wow, you know, I have to go but can I have your

00:19:16.960 --> 00:19:21.279
card? you're listening to this, you know what

00:19:21.279 --> 00:19:24.559
I'm talking about. Like when you nail it in a

00:19:24.559 --> 00:19:29.000
way that, and let's make it specific, that's

00:19:29.000 --> 00:19:31.759
unique. They've never heard that before. And

00:19:31.759 --> 00:19:35.920
it transfers energy. Well, why are your clients

00:19:35.920 --> 00:19:39.099
so successful in your yoga practice? Well, it's

00:19:39.099 --> 00:19:45.700
because we do body intelligent yoga. Oh, I want

00:19:45.700 --> 00:19:48.619
that. What is that? Oh my, I gotta go. Can I

00:19:48.619 --> 00:19:51.539
have your card? Okay. Body intent, it's only

00:19:51.539 --> 00:19:57.240
three words, but it's language that transfers

00:19:57.240 --> 00:19:58.819
energy and it's unique. They've never heard it

00:19:58.819 --> 00:20:04.799
before. So X branding done right starts inside

00:20:04.799 --> 00:20:08.799
of you with the impacts you clearly see making

00:20:08.799 --> 00:20:16.079
and really want to make. And the process steps.

00:20:16.430 --> 00:20:20.190
because branding is steps. And if you leave them

00:20:20.190 --> 00:20:23.730
out, it doesn't turn out well. When you do all

00:20:23.730 --> 00:20:27.690
the steps, it always turns out well. And I got

00:20:27.690 --> 00:20:30.609
to tell you, I know that sounds exaggerated,

00:20:30.890 --> 00:20:33.690
but I do this all day long. I've been doing it

00:20:33.690 --> 00:20:38.410
with individuals for 10 years. It always comes

00:20:38.410 --> 00:20:43.720
out well, congruent with your heart. The language

00:20:43.720 --> 00:20:46.339
is not language that you feel you have to use

00:20:46.339 --> 00:20:50.500
because you it's trick. It's you. You plug in

00:20:50.500 --> 00:20:57.019
to your own authenticity there. Brain. So the

00:20:57.019 --> 00:21:01.799
so you start with here, which obviously I'm all

00:21:01.799 --> 00:21:03.859
mixed up. But if they're just knowing me, you

00:21:03.859 --> 00:21:08.119
can see you are multifaceted. You are multifaceted

00:21:08.119 --> 00:21:11.220
for sure. And many people are. You know what

00:21:11.220 --> 00:21:13.519
I am? So when you mentioned longevity, first

00:21:13.519 --> 00:21:15.319
of all, I love the word longevity. I'm thinking,

00:21:15.500 --> 00:21:18.119
ooh, everyone uses legacy, legacy, legacy. If

00:21:18.119 --> 00:21:20.220
I hear that word one more time, and then you

00:21:20.220 --> 00:21:22.000
mentioned about the organic, and I wanted to

00:21:22.000 --> 00:21:24.819
pop up and say, Rich, I am in the best shape

00:21:24.819 --> 00:21:29.140
of my life. Yes. It's round, just like a quota.

00:21:29.819 --> 00:21:35.640
I love round. So anyway, so you know what? Goodbye,

00:21:35.839 --> 00:21:41.700
shape. My favorite, my favorite shape, but seriously.

00:21:42.240 --> 00:21:44.720
I love the word longevity and I love how you

00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:47.119
explained it. And this is huge. You know what

00:21:47.119 --> 00:21:48.839
I would like to do? I'd like to show everyone

00:21:48.839 --> 00:21:52.180
your website and see because there's so much

00:21:52.180 --> 00:21:54.519
more. And I was kind of not, I'm actually not

00:21:54.519 --> 00:21:56.220
joking when I say like put me in the hot seat,

00:21:56.220 --> 00:21:59.960
but I do know myself that when I think internally,

00:22:00.019 --> 00:22:01.779
when you look at your own company and say, oh

00:22:01.779 --> 00:22:04.839
man, Adrienne, you're doing so much and you know,

00:22:04.880 --> 00:22:06.819
really what it is that you want to accomplish

00:22:06.819 --> 00:22:08.940
or Sheila and I were talking about like the three

00:22:08.940 --> 00:22:11.819
things I really know, even myself, I have to

00:22:11.819 --> 00:22:14.849
eat. either take each segment and make it clear.

00:22:14.990 --> 00:22:18.529
I think it's okay, Rich, right? To have different

00:22:18.529 --> 00:22:21.970
roads that I could go on. So those roads, but

00:22:21.970 --> 00:22:24.430
each road has to be clearly defined. So what

00:22:24.430 --> 00:22:29.369
happens if you're serving a different set of

00:22:29.369 --> 00:22:33.009
clients? And I know I'm not the only one out

00:22:33.009 --> 00:22:35.329
there. I will give you an example, but first

00:22:35.329 --> 00:22:37.480
I'll tell you where we're going with it. where

00:22:37.480 --> 00:22:40.279
we're going is there's something that most people

00:22:40.279 --> 00:22:43.180
have never heard of and don't know it exists

00:22:43.180 --> 00:22:47.099
for them. And it does. And it's called your,

00:22:47.099 --> 00:22:49.880
let's give it a name. We'll call it your umbrella

00:22:49.880 --> 00:22:54.940
brand. So all those things that you do, the skills,

00:22:55.440 --> 00:22:59.859
I don't know what's going on. I seem to be flashing

00:22:59.859 --> 00:23:03.140
or something. That's crazy. It's my mom. Don't

00:23:03.140 --> 00:23:09.980
worry about it. Wow. Anyway, so I'm usually on

00:23:09.980 --> 00:23:11.599
Zoom all day long, but this is StreamYard. So

00:23:11.599 --> 00:23:15.680
I don't know how to interpret that. But so. an

00:23:15.680 --> 00:23:19.160
umbrella brand. So all those individual things

00:23:19.160 --> 00:23:23.140
you do, the etiquette, the podcast hosting, the

00:23:23.140 --> 00:23:26.799
teaching people how to do certain things, you

00:23:26.799 --> 00:23:31.859
know, all the work with score, just structuring

00:23:31.859 --> 00:23:35.279
businesses, you know, all of those, each of those

00:23:35.279 --> 00:23:39.319
things is a spoke in the umbrella. If you think

00:23:39.319 --> 00:23:42.099
about it that way, it's the same umbrella. The

00:23:42.099 --> 00:23:45.369
question is from branding standpoint. What's

00:23:45.369 --> 00:23:49.170
the umbrella? I can't even tell you because I

00:23:49.170 --> 00:23:50.970
know that professional global etiquette is too

00:23:50.970 --> 00:23:56.250
confusing. That's got to be relieving to you

00:23:56.250 --> 00:23:59.410
because of what you just streamed us through.

00:24:00.309 --> 00:24:02.410
Because if you were introducing yourself for

00:24:02.410 --> 00:24:04.930
the very first time and you did all those things,

00:24:05.750 --> 00:24:08.609
people might think she doesn't really know what

00:24:08.609 --> 00:24:12.390
she does. And that would be a mistake because

00:24:12.390 --> 00:24:15.980
you do a lot of things. And what you don't want

00:24:15.980 --> 00:24:20.980
to do is create confusion or misinformation or

00:24:20.980 --> 00:24:25.500
not get credit for your for what makes you outstanding.

00:24:25.500 --> 00:24:31.279
But in splaying all that stuff without connecting

00:24:31.279 --> 00:24:35.759
the dots, that's what happens when there isn't

00:24:35.759 --> 00:24:39.700
clarity in the way a brand shows up. It creates

00:24:39.700 --> 00:24:42.720
six bad consequences. And you just heard a few

00:24:42.720 --> 00:24:45.500
of them. I'll mention all six confusion and people

00:24:45.500 --> 00:24:47.720
don't do anything. I want to write them down.

00:24:48.180 --> 00:24:51.200
Oh yeah. Yeah, sure. Confusion misinformation.

00:24:51.420 --> 00:24:52.859
Oh, I thought you said you do that. So you'll

00:24:52.859 --> 00:24:54.839
do that. Oh, it's like, look, I've been married

00:24:54.839 --> 00:24:59.220
for 49 years as well. And even in my house, I

00:24:59.220 --> 00:25:01.920
hear, wait a minute, I thought you said that,

00:25:01.960 --> 00:25:03.960
but you said, you know, it's misinformation.

00:25:04.519 --> 00:25:08.160
Okay. Um, third, you don't. get you just put

00:25:08.160 --> 00:25:11.000
no credit you don't get credit for what makes

00:25:11.000 --> 00:25:17.259
you outstanding what a travesty okay fourth is

00:25:17.259 --> 00:25:22.920
you spend a lot of money often on marketing things

00:25:22.920 --> 00:25:26.079
be many times it's because you're sold them because

00:25:26.079 --> 00:25:28.180
they say it'll be good for your brand but they

00:25:28.180 --> 00:25:30.200
don't know what branding as they just know they

00:25:30.200 --> 00:25:32.339
sell what they sell. Okay. So, you know, oh,

00:25:32.400 --> 00:25:34.259
and we tried this marketing, but it didn't work.

00:25:34.720 --> 00:25:36.859
It's not the marketing that doesn't work. It's

00:25:36.859 --> 00:25:38.920
the fact that the brand wasn't clearly defined

00:25:38.920 --> 00:25:42.640
because marketing is executing a brand, an excellent

00:25:42.640 --> 00:25:45.019
branding strategy. You have to have the brand

00:25:45.019 --> 00:25:46.859
before you can do marketing because otherwise

00:25:46.859 --> 00:25:49.680
what do you execute? There's no branding strategy.

00:25:49.940 --> 00:25:52.019
You can do any way you want to and do all the

00:25:52.019 --> 00:25:53.940
marketing you want. You can hire marketing people

00:25:53.940 --> 00:25:56.359
and they can use whatever language. You know

00:25:56.359 --> 00:25:58.720
what I mean? It gets in there. You back to confusion,

00:25:59.279 --> 00:26:04.039
misinformation, competitors who are, have more

00:26:04.039 --> 00:26:07.599
clarity in the way they show up, get ahead or

00:26:07.599 --> 00:26:11.220
more successful. And you might run out of time.

00:26:11.460 --> 00:26:13.759
That's the six bad consequences. And time might

00:26:13.759 --> 00:26:17.740
be run out. Misinformation, no crap. So I want

00:26:17.740 --> 00:26:19.460
to make sure I got it right. Confusion, misinformation,

00:26:19.619 --> 00:26:21.819
no credit for what makes you outstanding, spending

00:26:21.819 --> 00:26:24.299
a lot of money in marketing. Okay. So two more.

00:26:24.559 --> 00:26:29.279
Wasting would probably be a better word. The

00:26:29.279 --> 00:26:31.440
marketing doesn't work, but you wasted money

00:26:31.440 --> 00:26:36.519
because what was missing wasn't leads. What was

00:26:36.519 --> 00:26:39.779
missing was brand clarity. And then you get leads

00:26:39.779 --> 00:26:41.640
and well, we get the wrong leads. You know, the

00:26:41.640 --> 00:26:43.079
wrong people come to our website. It's like,

00:26:43.299 --> 00:26:45.319
it's a branding problem. It's not a marketing

00:26:45.319 --> 00:26:48.220
problem. That is wasting, okay. And then what

00:26:48.220 --> 00:26:51.500
was the last two? Competitors who are, who have

00:26:51.500 --> 00:26:54.119
more clarity in the way they show up, get ahead.

00:26:54.920 --> 00:26:59.559
And the last is you lose time or run out of time.

00:27:00.240 --> 00:27:02.640
Sometimes that means our time on the planet's

00:27:02.640 --> 00:27:06.079
over, but sometimes it means you run out of the

00:27:06.079 --> 00:27:09.839
energy and desire to do it. And so your time's

00:27:09.839 --> 00:27:15.450
up, you know, these are six really bad consequences

00:27:15.450 --> 00:27:19.950
that you can avoid by defining and languaging

00:27:19.950 --> 00:27:24.910
your brand so clearly. And I'm going to use an

00:27:24.910 --> 00:27:29.069
exaggerated word that, but it's true. It's every,

00:27:29.230 --> 00:27:31.509
when you define and language your brand so clearly

00:27:31.509 --> 00:27:37.589
that everything the brand says and does aligns

00:27:37.589 --> 00:27:41.029
with the impacts you clearly see making when

00:27:41.029 --> 00:27:47.160
you thrive. That's when it comes alive. When

00:27:47.160 --> 00:27:49.759
everything, yeah. No, I was gonna say sorry.

00:27:50.119 --> 00:27:53.519
So can a brand, asking for all of you out there,

00:27:53.799 --> 00:27:59.019
can a brand just be my name and remove and in

00:27:59.019 --> 00:28:01.900
that way everything and then professional global

00:28:01.900 --> 00:28:07.339
etiquette is just a spoke? Well, A, you're turning

00:28:07.339 --> 00:28:10.599
a brand into something that It's not a brand

00:28:10.599 --> 00:28:15.660
is a perception. Okay. Stick with that. The brand

00:28:15.660 --> 00:28:19.220
is the, is the consistent perception you create

00:28:19.220 --> 00:28:22.440
that includes, do I trust her? Is she trustable?

00:28:22.700 --> 00:28:25.400
That includes, is she intelligent? That includes,

00:28:25.839 --> 00:28:28.359
is she masterful? That includes, is she values?

00:28:28.480 --> 00:28:31.240
But whatever those characteristics are that are

00:28:31.240 --> 00:28:34.480
part of the brand that you must get credit for

00:28:34.480 --> 00:28:38.319
in order to make your impacts. those must be

00:28:38.319 --> 00:28:42.180
part of the perception and the work you do using

00:28:42.180 --> 00:28:47.839
marketing gets you credit for those things so

00:28:47.839 --> 00:28:52.619
that that's the perception. I'm showing everyone.

00:28:52.680 --> 00:28:55.000
I want to go through. I just love this. Wow.

00:28:55.240 --> 00:28:58.940
This is a lot to think about and It's interesting

00:28:58.940 --> 00:29:01.240
that I actually need the support, but I wanna

00:29:01.240 --> 00:29:04.619
go through with everyone just exactly, I love

00:29:04.619 --> 00:29:08.039
this picture of you, by the way. And if you're

00:29:08.039 --> 00:29:10.819
watching - I'm down in the garden, that's a gigantic

00:29:10.819 --> 00:29:14.019
kale plant behind me, yeah. Oh, I wouldn't recognize

00:29:14.019 --> 00:29:16.480
it unless it was a donut plant, and then I would

00:29:16.480 --> 00:29:20.299
actually be able to recognize it and with sprinkles.

00:29:20.660 --> 00:29:22.559
All right, I love this, I love, love, love this.

00:29:22.759 --> 00:29:25.660
I love the photo of you. I just love everything

You know what I should cost to talk to for 30

00:29:37.779 --> 00:29:42.140
minutes? Yes. It's free. I should be $10 ,000.

00:29:42.160 --> 00:29:44.460
Oh my god. Should it be on a beach or a yacht?

00:29:44.779 --> 00:29:48.819
I'm on Zoom. And if you hear this and you want

00:29:48.819 --> 00:29:52.500

it. Wait I want to so I'm on your site you see

00:30:07.400 --> 00:30:09.619
me on stream yard but I'm actually working on

00:30:09.619 --> 00:30:12.200
your site I'm not able to click here what am

00:30:12.200 --> 00:30:16.160
I doing wrong? I don't know but it's a button

00:30:16.160 --> 00:30:18.380
and it's live and it goes right to my calendar

00:30:18.380 --> 00:30:23.200
and uh yeah. What will you what is this? Is this

00:30:23.200 --> 00:30:28.339
an event branding you? Do a half day event every

00:30:28.339 --> 00:30:31.279
month and it will change the way you think it

00:30:31.279 --> 00:30:34.400
it starts to help you understand what it means

00:30:34.400 --> 00:30:38.299
to define and language a brand so clearly that

00:30:38.299 --> 00:30:41.660
everything you say and do aligns and what happens

00:30:41.660 --> 00:30:45.700
when you do that and what happens when you don't

00:30:45.700 --> 00:30:50.930
I Let me make sure I understand this. So you're

00:30:50.930 --> 00:30:54.049
saying this is amazing, but are you saying, what

00:30:54.049 --> 00:30:57.609
is, are you always consistently running this

00:30:57.609 --> 00:31:02.750
program? Is it a webinar? Every month. And it's

00:31:02.750 --> 00:31:05.779
branding you with impact .com. Amazing guys.

00:31:05.880 --> 00:31:09.240
Look at this. Yes. Yes. Or you could get it right

00:31:09.240 --> 00:31:11.480
off the rich brands that info at half day. Like

00:31:11.480 --> 00:31:14.640
I just clicked it. I love, love, love. Great

00:31:14.640 --> 00:31:17.380
place to start. And you know, if you work with

00:31:17.380 --> 00:31:20.380
somebody else in your business, both come, both

00:31:20.380 --> 00:31:23.539
come because then you'll be able to share the

00:31:23.539 --> 00:31:26.099
thoughts and the language that you pick up literally.

00:31:27.569 --> 00:31:30.890
We literally, we look at the top 10 things people

00:31:30.890 --> 00:31:33.210
say that are wrong, that they wish weren't wrong.

00:31:33.589 --> 00:31:35.450
Oh, we need better ways to say what we do. We're

00:31:35.450 --> 00:31:37.069
not getting credit for what makes us outstanding.

00:31:37.130 --> 00:31:39.130
We get the wrong people to our website. Hey,

00:31:39.190 --> 00:31:41.009
what kind of content will work with our target?

00:31:41.150 --> 00:31:45.009
I, you know, these are very, very common and

00:31:45.009 --> 00:31:48.250
let's call them issues, problems. And they, they

00:31:48.250 --> 00:31:52.529
all minimize or go away when you have clearly

00:31:52.529 --> 00:31:56.410
defined and language your brand. That's remarkable.

00:31:57.309 --> 00:32:01.390
You know, get yourself in there. I didn't know

00:32:01.390 --> 00:32:03.690
that you were on Sharkpreneur. That's with Seth

00:32:03.690 --> 00:32:06.390
Green. I did the podcast with his wife, Rebecca.

00:32:07.029 --> 00:32:10.450
It was absolutely, I don't even know how to,

00:32:10.650 --> 00:32:13.509
like her brand, I just love everything about

00:32:13.509 --> 00:32:16.269
her. And I love Seth. I said to Seth the other

00:32:16.269 --> 00:32:19.769
day, I'm like, I may work for you, but I am a

00:32:19.769 --> 00:32:24.859
raving fan. Literally, I am a fan more than an

00:32:24.859 --> 00:32:29.460
employee because I absolutely love him. So, you

00:32:29.460 --> 00:32:35.220
know, I didn't ever think I would witness that

00:32:35.220 --> 00:32:38.640
or be a recipient of it. But after about the

00:32:38.640 --> 00:32:41.539
first three and a half years of this last 10

00:32:41.539 --> 00:32:46.279
years, people who had been through brand accelerator

00:32:46.279 --> 00:32:51.240
mastery at rich brands and had created uh, uh,

00:32:51.240 --> 00:32:52.980
an umbrella brand, by the way, I said, I was

00:32:52.980 --> 00:32:55.680
going to give you an example and I want to give

00:32:55.680 --> 00:32:58.079
you that example. So, you know, let's hold onto

00:32:58.079 --> 00:33:01.140
that thought just for a moment, but literally

00:33:01.140 --> 00:33:06.940
hop on that half day out of their own free will

00:33:06.940 --> 00:33:12.539
and, and tell one thing about their experience

00:33:12.539 --> 00:33:16.619
going through the work of brand of impact driven

00:33:16.619 --> 00:33:20.200
branding. And they make it real for people and

00:33:20.200 --> 00:33:22.940
they love to do that. That's like, wow. I never

00:33:22.940 --> 00:33:27.019
expected that, but it happens. So it's a blessing.

00:33:27.980 --> 00:33:32.740
Um, yeah. And what I want you to hear listening

00:33:32.740 --> 00:33:36.039
to this is look, it's not intimidating. It is

00:33:36.039 --> 00:33:40.079
just a process. Branding is steps. It is just

00:33:40.079 --> 00:33:42.700
a process. And when you have access to it, when

00:33:42.700 --> 00:33:45.900
you know it, you can do it. You don't need a

00:33:45.900 --> 00:33:49.299
guru. All right. I, I love it. I just put in

00:33:49.299 --> 00:33:53.720
the notes, the half day so that, um, so that

00:33:53.720 --> 00:33:57.339

one sheet and signature speeches, but also a

00:34:31.320 --> 00:34:34.340
media guest one sheet of those things that I

00:34:34.340 --> 00:34:37.380
talk about that I'm expert at and can literally

00:34:37.380 --> 00:34:41.079
bring perspective on or be on a panel or share

00:34:41.079 --> 00:34:45.760
with any business group, any group frankly, any

00:34:45.760 --> 00:34:49.880
group that has vision of what they want to accomplish

00:34:49.880 --> 00:34:54.320
because a brand is a perception. I love it. And

00:34:54.320 --> 00:34:57.000
then you have the impact brand doctor. I do.

00:34:57.420 --> 00:35:01.820
I love, I love, I, I recorded 72 episodes and

00:35:01.820 --> 00:35:03.800
I'm don't record them right now, but I'm about

00:35:03.800 --> 00:35:07.599
to start again soon. And basically I have people

00:35:07.599 --> 00:35:10.320
on and ask them, what did you struggle with in

00:35:10.320 --> 00:35:12.739
the beginning, you know, with your brand and

00:35:12.739 --> 00:35:15.769
what do you struggle with now? moving forward,

00:35:16.530 --> 00:35:19.110
what are roadblocks for you when you think about

00:35:19.110 --> 00:35:23.829
brand and branding? And then I speak to them

00:35:23.829 --> 00:35:28.150
and give them rich strategy nuggets that are

00:35:28.150 --> 00:35:32.719
take home and help them. Yeah, I love that. I

00:35:32.719 --> 00:35:36.940
don't know if I'm on Chrome, just to be transparent

00:35:36.940 --> 00:35:39.059

message. I love this. So next week, I have that

00:38:16.909 --> 00:38:20.070
two day SWAT event with 19 speakers. So it's

00:38:20.070 --> 00:38:22.570
a lot going on. But in November, you can count

00:38:22.570 --> 00:38:25.869
me in. And I just put that in writing so people

00:38:25.869 --> 00:38:28.969
know that I am going to do what I say. I will

00:38:28.969 --> 00:38:31.889
say one thing about my own personal, not brand,

00:38:32.050 --> 00:38:35.130
but my own personal intentions in life is I have

00:38:35.130 --> 00:38:37.559
never started something that I I never was on

00:38:37.559 --> 00:38:41.199
a board or a committee or anything without, it

00:38:41.199 --> 00:38:44.559
didn't stop or decide to get off unless my time

00:38:44.559 --> 00:38:47.340
came and I decided to get off at that time. And

00:38:47.340 --> 00:38:50.260
I'm proud of the fact that I have, I've just,

00:38:50.460 --> 00:38:53.559
I'm so committed. The True Crime Podcast, I haven't

00:38:53.559 --> 00:38:56.960
missed a recording since March. Going back, even

00:38:56.960 --> 00:38:59.860
with Seth, I think at the most of the four. almost

00:38:59.860 --> 00:39:01.880
four, almost five years I've worked with him.

00:39:02.400 --> 00:39:04.480
I literally maybe missed like three meetings.

00:39:05.519 --> 00:39:08.420
I like really, that's like the one thing. It's

00:39:08.420 --> 00:39:10.119
just like the one thing we have, but that's probably

00:39:10.119 --> 00:39:12.159
my mom. Okay. I want to go back to your website

00:39:12.159 --> 00:39:14.920
before we finish up. So everyone, I want to make

00:39:14.920 --> 00:39:16.719
sure I'm sharing the right tab. So you should

00:39:16.719 --> 00:39:19.360
see your book right now. Yeah. And it's about

00:39:19.360 --> 00:39:22.510
your book. I mean, I have books, but we When

00:39:22.510 --> 00:39:26.110
a brand is well -defined in the process of, we

00:39:26.110 --> 00:39:31.190
do a program that lasts about three months. It's

00:39:31.190 --> 00:39:34.289
individual days, about seven days in a period

00:39:34.289 --> 00:39:37.110
of three months. And people, all of the work

00:39:37.110 --> 00:39:40.030
is done with them, for them, all of the languaging,

00:39:40.269 --> 00:39:45.469
all the seven steps. And many times during that

00:39:45.469 --> 00:39:49.909
process, we name books. We create titles and

00:39:49.909 --> 00:39:53.920
subtitles of books. for them as stakes in the

00:39:53.920 --> 00:39:56.079
ground for them to move their brand forward.

00:39:56.760 --> 00:39:58.880
And those books are congruent with what they

00:39:58.880 --> 00:40:01.760
must get credit for. Those books are congruent

00:40:01.760 --> 00:40:06.519
with the umbrella that overrides everything they

00:40:06.519 --> 00:40:11.360
do. So I mentioned that I would give an example

00:40:11.360 --> 00:40:14.440
of an umbrella brand. Somebody that came to me

00:40:14.440 --> 00:40:17.929
and said, I do all these things and And I'll

00:40:17.929 --> 00:40:21.110
share with you the umbrella brand. So it's interesting.

00:40:21.309 --> 00:40:23.670
It does have to do with health and longevity.

00:40:24.670 --> 00:40:29.230
But so it'll be even more fascinating to you.

00:40:29.389 --> 00:40:31.369
But a gentleman named Barry came to me and said,

00:40:32.070 --> 00:40:35.969
look, I don't I don't really know what my brand

00:40:35.969 --> 00:40:38.750
I don't know how to do this. I do a lot of things.

00:40:39.369 --> 00:40:43.090
I lost my wife to lupus and it made wake me up

00:40:43.090 --> 00:40:46.159
that I need to take it. control of my own health,

00:40:46.639 --> 00:40:48.900
I started looking at alternative health modalities

00:40:48.900 --> 00:40:51.420
and realizing that what we're told, you know,

00:40:51.579 --> 00:40:54.380
take a pill or pharmaceuticals or surgery are

00:40:54.380 --> 00:40:56.340
not the only options. And I started looking at

00:40:56.340 --> 00:40:58.860
what else is out there and I became fascinated

00:40:58.860 --> 00:41:02.829
at how we can literally you know, own our own

00:41:02.829 --> 00:41:05.789
health in so many ways. We can shift our health

00:41:05.789 --> 00:41:09.110
style. We can make choices, what we eat, what

00:41:09.110 --> 00:41:12.909
we do, how we live. And so I love to help people

00:41:12.909 --> 00:41:16.269
do that. And it's led me to Dr. Daniel Amon's

00:41:16.269 --> 00:41:19.349
brain training. So I understand how we can strengthen

00:41:19.349 --> 00:41:22.210
our brain and literally have a better brain as

00:41:22.210 --> 00:41:25.269
we get older. Like people don't even know they

00:41:25.269 --> 00:41:27.989
think it's the opposite, you know, but no, but

00:41:27.989 --> 00:41:30.329
then I got involved with a company that, that

00:41:30.219 --> 00:41:32.820
that is the first nutraceutical company 15 years

00:41:32.820 --> 00:41:36.119
ago that helped put, put nutraceuticals in your

00:41:36.119 --> 00:41:38.079
body that helped your body make its own stem

00:41:38.079 --> 00:41:40.820
cells because stem cells repair, rejuvenate.

00:41:40.940 --> 00:41:43.239
And so you can manage your aging in that way.

00:41:43.460 --> 00:41:45.320
And then I have, there are other things like

00:41:45.320 --> 00:41:47.500
there are companies that have hybrid mushrooms

00:41:47.500 --> 00:41:50.179
and the mushrooms are very, very efficacious

00:41:50.179 --> 00:41:52.820
against certain kinds of cancer. And you go like,

00:41:52.820 --> 00:41:57.179
you know, and he just keeps going and you know

00:41:57.179 --> 00:42:02.840
what I do. Okay. Like, what's my brand? Having

00:42:02.840 --> 00:42:06.900
gone through brand accelerator mastery, we named

00:42:06.900 --> 00:42:10.079
an umbrella brand for Barry. And the umbrella

00:42:10.079 --> 00:42:14.699
brand sounds like he says today, I'm the founder

00:42:14.699 --> 00:42:20.820
of the legacy brand, mindful longevity, renew,

00:42:21.179 --> 00:42:26.539
rejuvenate, revitalize, holistic health mentoring

00:42:26.539 --> 00:42:31.650
that empowers lives. that's an umbrella brand.

00:42:32.289 --> 00:42:38.130
It's the highest level impacts in a brand name.

00:42:38.630 --> 00:42:40.849
And so now when he says, so we were working with

00:42:40.849 --> 00:42:42.849
these mushrooms and go mushrooms, I thought you

00:42:42.849 --> 00:42:45.409
did brains, brains, brains training, brain training.

00:42:45.530 --> 00:42:48.429
You know, it's like, it's like, oh, that fits.

00:42:49.610 --> 00:42:54.369
Oh, that fits. And it is waiting for you, Adrienne,

00:42:54.690 --> 00:42:58.630
you, all of those things you do from the From

00:42:58.630 --> 00:43:02.570
the etiquette, to the hosting, to what you do

00:43:02.570 --> 00:43:05.929
with score, to what you do with your nephews

00:43:05.929 --> 00:43:07.809
and nieces, which I don't know, but you must

00:43:07.809 --> 00:43:11.030
have some. Anyway, it's all part of the umbrella.

00:43:12.190 --> 00:43:15.230
What's the umbrella? I'm going to find out in

00:43:15.230 --> 00:43:17.090
November. I'm not sure of the date yet. When

00:43:17.090 --> 00:43:21.190
you load it up, I'm going. $97 is like a wonderful

00:43:21.190 --> 00:43:26.420
gift to all of us. November 8th. Perfect. It'll

00:43:26.420 --> 00:43:32.059
be Wednesday. It's still the same. It's either

00:43:32.059 --> 00:43:34.500
a Thursday or a Saturday that we do the half

00:43:34.500 --> 00:43:37.840
day. We do the half day rocket back and forth

00:43:37.840 --> 00:43:39.900
Thursday and Saturday because some people have

00:43:39.900 --> 00:43:43.219
a full time job and they're working on, you know,

00:43:43.280 --> 00:43:46.380
the brand they will become. Some people are in

00:43:46.380 --> 00:43:48.900
working and this is work. So it's Thursday, but

00:43:48.900 --> 00:43:50.639
Saturday is for the people that have something

00:43:50.639 --> 00:43:53.840
to do all day, you know, so I love it, Rich.

00:43:53.860 --> 00:43:55.639
Or their children are home on the weekend and

00:43:55.639 --> 00:43:57.420
so they get to come Thursday because then their

00:43:57.420 --> 00:43:59.139
children are in school, you know, so it doesn't...

00:43:59.139 --> 00:44:01.860
Either way, I'll be here in November. I am really

00:44:01.860 --> 00:44:05.340
excited about this. You have opened my eyes,

00:44:05.480 --> 00:44:07.980
my ears, my head actually, my brain, my heart,

00:44:08.179 --> 00:44:13.380
to understand what you do. Sheila Slick, the

00:44:13.380 --> 00:44:16.340
founder of Pod2Book, where you turn a podcast

00:44:16.340 --> 00:44:20.360
episode into a narrative story, which is what

00:44:20.360 --> 00:44:22.840
Unscripted Brilliance is. When I put this up,

00:44:23.039 --> 00:44:25.900
I'm going to send you a chapter, your chapter,

00:44:26.219 --> 00:44:29.500
to see what you think. Because what you shared

00:44:29.500 --> 00:44:32.119
is amazing. It's not conversational. It's actually

00:44:32.119 --> 00:44:34.239
your story written as a narrative. So it's pretty

00:44:34.239 --> 00:44:39.179
cool. She did a fantastic job with it. So getting

00:44:39.179 --> 00:44:43.420
great reviews. But I can't wait to. It's weird

00:44:43.420 --> 00:44:45.679
because once we did that, now every episode,

00:44:45.840 --> 00:44:47.460
I'm like, oh, what's this going to sound like?

00:44:47.659 --> 00:44:49.960
What's this going to read like a chapter? I have

00:44:49.960 --> 00:44:51.599
a feeling yours is going to be fantastic. So

00:44:51.599 --> 00:44:54.420
I'm excited about that. Thank you so much. So

00:44:54.420 --> 00:44:57.260
we're live. It's going to be turned into a podcast.

00:44:57.539 --> 00:44:59.920
I have so many questions. So November 8th, I

00:44:59.920 --> 00:45:02.599
put it in my calendar while we were talking because

00:45:02.599 --> 00:45:05.719
as I said, my father always said, do it now or,

00:45:05.900 --> 00:45:07.599
and I have a little philosophy, which I'll share.

00:45:08.340 --> 00:45:11.280
It's say yes to an opportunity and figure it

00:45:11.280 --> 00:45:15.000
out later. So if someone registers like for October

00:45:15.000 --> 00:45:18.500
11th and they can't come, they're already preregistered

00:45:18.500 --> 00:45:23.800
for November 8th. Once you attend, you can re

00:45:23.800 --> 00:45:26.980
attend. I've never charged people another time

00:45:26.980 --> 00:45:29.840
ever, even for the most expensive things we do.

00:45:30.099 --> 00:45:34.719
It's just part of my DNA. And I want people to

00:45:34.719 --> 00:45:37.960
be in the work. If it's their time and they get

00:45:37.960 --> 00:45:41.980
it and they're open to do branding, right. I

00:45:41.980 --> 00:45:45.800
want them in the work. Even for some of our really

00:45:45.800 --> 00:45:48.440
expensive programs, I will allow them to make

00:45:48.440 --> 00:45:52.630
special arrangements. If they need to, just if

00:45:52.630 --> 00:45:56.369
they're supposed to be in the work, we get them

00:45:56.369 --> 00:45:58.849
in the work. And I'll tell you why. And I don't

00:45:58.849 --> 00:46:02.110
mind telling you, I hope you don't mind. When

00:46:02.110 --> 00:46:05.590
you start with the impacts that are in your heart,

00:46:06.489 --> 00:46:10.590
who put them there? I don't think you did. I

00:46:10.590 --> 00:46:14.849
think God did. So when does branding become God's

00:46:14.849 --> 00:46:18.789
work? When you bake clarity into the brand focused

00:46:18.789 --> 00:46:22.889
on the impacts you truly want to make and clearly

00:46:22.889 --> 00:46:26.769
see making, I believe that's God's work. That's

00:46:26.769 --> 00:46:29.769
why I enjoy what I do all day long. It feels

00:46:29.769 --> 00:46:32.829
like love, Adrienne. It doesn't feel like work.

00:46:33.190 --> 00:46:35.309
Why does a guy who's my age, and we won't talk

00:46:35.309 --> 00:46:37.610
about my age, because I feel like I'm in my forties,

00:46:37.670 --> 00:46:40.409
but I'm not, and I'm not done, because I've got

00:46:40.409 --> 00:46:42.449
longevity on my side. Remember? It's like, and

00:46:42.449 --> 00:46:46.489
as long as God's got me here, but when people

00:46:46.489 --> 00:46:50.519
step into their purpose, Their life takes on

00:46:50.519 --> 00:46:53.539
a whole new level of fulfilling and when work

00:46:53.539 --> 00:46:57.099
is love, it's not work So you're listening to

00:46:57.099 --> 00:47:00.599
this. I pray that you achieve that I pray you

00:47:00.599 --> 00:47:03.820
get there. It is a delightful feeling. Does that

00:47:03.820 --> 00:47:07.639
help? I love it. I want to say when it's time,

00:47:07.780 --> 00:47:11.139
I feel like with everything it is time. I'm 63

00:47:11.139 --> 00:47:14.619
with the energy of a 12 year old, but I'll tell

00:47:14.619 --> 00:47:16.880
you it's because of donuts. Wonder of a 12 year

00:47:16.880 --> 00:47:19.639
old for sure. But yeah, you're definitely in

00:47:19.639 --> 00:47:22.579
the high energy category. It's the donuts. It's

00:47:22.579 --> 00:47:26.340
the donuts. Just kidding around with it. Certainly

00:47:26.340 --> 00:47:29.960
partly the donuts anyway. I love talking about

00:47:29.960 --> 00:47:31.840
donuts more than I actually eat them to be honest

00:47:31.840 --> 00:47:33.820
with you. Well, you must have a high birth. right.

00:47:34.079 --> 00:47:41.059
That's okay. I uh wonderful. I really love so

00:47:41.059 --> 00:47:45.300
thank you so much. I'm with you and I will let

00:47:45.300 --> 00:47:51.199
to air for for reals. B because I have a 19 year

00:47:51.199 --> 00:47:59.079
still stay young because I Wow, you get to taste

00:47:59.079 --> 00:48:02.159
all the generations. Exactly. And I feel like

00:48:02.159 --> 00:48:04.880
I'm 19 with her. It's crazy. Amazing. Anyways,

00:48:05.179 --> 00:48:06.800
thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I can't wait

00:48:06.800 --> 00:48:09.420
to see you. I will sign up. I'm really excited

00:48:09.420 --> 00:48:11.440
about it because I definitely, I definitely need

00:48:11.440 --> 00:48:13.440
this. So, so do you guys, if you're watching,

00:48:13.659 --> 00:48:15.739
unless you were going to call Rich and he'll

00:48:15.739 --> 00:48:17.860
say, no, no, you're perfect. You don't need my

00:48:17.860 --> 00:48:19.920
class because you've got everything lined up.

00:48:20.400 --> 00:48:24.099
Well, chances are Rich will say, hmm, may I reflect?

00:48:24.839 --> 00:48:29.300
and then you listen, it's okay. You know what,

00:48:29.619 --> 00:48:32.360
it's - We're not after perfection. Okay, we're

00:48:32.360 --> 00:48:35.000
not. No, but it's a hard thing. Rich, you know,

00:48:35.039 --> 00:48:37.340
even with score, when I would do rooms and, you

00:48:37.340 --> 00:48:39.420
know, just saying, you know, give me your 10

00:48:39.420 --> 00:48:41.840
second elevator pitch, even that was hard. I

00:48:41.840 --> 00:48:44.320
was, I did a workshop, you know, live workshop

00:48:44.320 --> 00:48:46.480
on LinkedIn and often I'll start after I do a

00:48:46.480 --> 00:48:48.780
little choking around and after I dance on stage,

00:48:48.780 --> 00:48:51.579
of course, I will start asking, you know, like,

00:48:51.679 --> 00:48:53.300
okay, someone just tell me what you do. Introduce

00:48:53.300 --> 00:48:56.010
yourself. And I'm like shocked how many people

00:48:56.010 --> 00:48:58.469
just don't even have, if you don't even have

00:48:58.469 --> 00:49:02.070
that AKA elevator pitch, we know then your clarity.

00:49:02.590 --> 00:49:04.969
is not that great either. So that's me. So thank

00:49:04.969 --> 00:49:07.010
you guys for listening. I really appreciate your

00:49:07.010 --> 00:49:10.369
watching, listening, click the links and have

00:49:10.369 --> 00:49:13.309
a great day. Rich, you are awesome. Now is the

00:49:13.309 --> 00:49:15.630
time to define the brand you will become and

00:49:15.630 --> 00:49:18.210
just remember it's clarity that's missing. So

00:49:18.210 --> 00:49:21.409
let's put it there. Thank you. Wait, wait, wait,

00:49:21.409 --> 00:49:22.409
wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,

00:49:22.969 --> 00:49:23.050
wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,

00:49:23.050 --> 00:49:23.050
wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,

00:49:23.050 --> 00:49:23.050
wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,

00:49:23.050 --> 00:49:23.050
wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,

00:49:23.050 --> 00:49:23.469
wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,

00:49:23.469 --> 00:49:25.829
wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, everyone is kind

00:49:25.829 --> 00:49:28.269
of going into their own business. What like what

00:49:28.269 --> 00:49:30.889
we're saying, everyone's going social media is

00:49:30.889 --> 00:49:34.519
the strongest it's ever been. And Like when I'm

00:49:34.519 --> 00:49:36.340
looking at it now, I probably could have gotten

00:49:36.340 --> 00:49:39.380
away with not being so clear. 10 years ago, I

00:49:39.380 --> 00:49:41.380
really think I could have been. I think of all

00:49:41.380 --> 00:49:43.219
the clients in my life that weren't as clear

00:49:43.219 --> 00:49:45.599
as they could have been. But I think now and

00:49:45.599 --> 00:49:48.599
moving forward, we have to be. So the time is

00:49:48.599 --> 00:49:50.420
not just right for me, because when you said

00:49:50.420 --> 00:49:52.280
that, I'm like, yeah, this is my time. But I

00:49:52.280 --> 00:49:54.559
think it's all of our time. If you're in business,

00:49:55.539 --> 00:49:58.320
there's just so much out there. It's easy to

00:49:58.320 --> 00:50:01.420
get lost in the... in the mix, right? We're all

00:50:01.420 --> 00:50:04.500
little issues. I think the focusing element is

00:50:04.500 --> 00:50:09.019
this. All of us, every one of us has the same

00:50:09.019 --> 00:50:11.820
opportunity. We're all made by the same creator.

00:50:12.260 --> 00:50:16.559
We are given gifts. We're born with unlimited

00:50:16.559 --> 00:50:18.960
power, and then we find all kinds of reasons

00:50:18.960 --> 00:50:21.760
to hold ourselves back. fear, what happened to

00:50:21.760 --> 00:50:23.920
us as kids, whatever, whatever. But we all have

00:50:23.920 --> 00:50:25.980
the same opportunity, and that is to make the

00:50:25.980 --> 00:50:29.119
most significant impact on others whose lives

00:50:29.119 --> 00:50:32.900
we touch with the gifts we've been given. If

00:50:32.900 --> 00:50:36.119
you stay focused on that, you'll avoid all the

00:50:36.119 --> 00:50:39.920
hogwash that is out there that, you know, stands

00:50:39.920 --> 00:50:43.880
for whatever people stand for. You know, when

00:50:43.880 --> 00:50:47.400
things amount to nothing, why waste your time?

00:50:47.849 --> 00:50:51.110
You know, you can waste your entire life bouncing

00:50:51.110 --> 00:50:56.050
around in social media. Why? Focus on why you're

00:50:56.050 --> 00:51:00.150
here. That's way better. It's way better for

00:51:00.150 --> 00:51:05.090
you. It honors your creator and it will build

00:51:05.090 --> 00:51:08.829
a more fulfilling life for you. So it's a choice,

00:51:09.269 --> 00:51:14.730
hogwash or significance. You decide. What a way

00:51:14.730 --> 00:51:17.550
to end it. I love that. Your words gave me chills,

00:51:17.610 --> 00:51:20.050
which is interesting. Okay, thank you so much.

00:51:20.150 --> 00:51:21.429
I'm gonna end this stream now. Thank you guys

00:51:21.429 --> 00:51:23.289
for watching. I really appreciate it. Wait a

00:51:23.289 --> 00:51:25.690
second, I have to say my ending, because we know

00:51:25.690 --> 00:51:28.929
Rich is brave, because it does take a lot, Rich,

00:51:29.110 --> 00:51:32.239

00:51:35.780 --> 00:51:40.239
about me and I before you start. So I l care

00:52:01.489 --> 00:52:04.409
thank you. It's your choice. Just kidding around.

00:52:04.690 --> 00:52:07.110
Thank you. All right, I'm going to end it right

00:52:07.110 --> 00:52:10.690
now. Sorry.
