“What is the Future for DEI?” with Rhonda Moret – Reward Podcast Episode 24 Aug 22, 2024

DEI has been THE business buzzword for the last few years, but there’s also been backlash. So is it on the way out? Or here to stay? Rhonda Moret of Elevated Diversity discusses the issues affecting today’s organizations, and how her approach to DEI is still winning strong… with repeat clients like CBS and the Department of Homeland Security.

When Rhonda started her career decades ago in the high-paced world of advertising, she quickly found herself as one of the few women—and often the only woman of color—in the boardrooms of the golf industry. She used those firsthand experiences to shape her custom approach to diversity, equity, and inclusion. While there are other programs that get it wrong, she’s seen the incredible power that comes when companies get DEI right—when they stop treating it like a checkbox and start using it to truly connect people.

In this episode of REWARD, The Trust founder Ali Brown connects with our member Rhonda to explore the reality of leading at the highest levels, and how the concept of inclusion can take your mission to new heights.

On this episode of the #REWARDPodcast, you’ll hear:

“Check Your Gut… Use Your Data” with Andrea Jenson – Reward Podcast Episode 21 Mar 21, 2024

Want to hear a secret? Sometimes the masterpiece of business is a paint-by-*number*.

“The Art of Decision” with Dr. Nneka Unachuku – Reward Podcast Episode 20 Mar 07, 2024

Physicians are just supposed to save lives, not take time to build businesses, right? For Nigerian-raised Dr. Nneka Unachukwu, the answer to that question was never as cut and dry as the medical world made it seem. To her, as a doctor, you're already running your own show, 'Dr. You, Incorporated,' whether you know it or not. And now she helps thousands of other physicians with her company EntreMD.

After noticing the fast-changes in healthcare and seeing so many physicians walk away from their stressful practices, Nneka claimed a towering mission: To coach and lift 100,000 physicians to build thriving, impactful businesses for the good of all. Defying the conventional path laid out for medical professionals, she transformed her calling for health care into a greater mission of empowering doctors worldwide.

In this episode of REWARD, The Trust founder Ali Brown sits down with our member Dr. Nneka to delve into the combination of raw purpose, authentic growth, and the unshakable resolve to change the way we look at physicians as entrepreneurs. This episode is NOT one to miss!

Ali's insights on giving your clients authentic advice - even if they aren’t thinking long term yet – especially for women carving out their legacies in today's dynamic landscape
The *big* leap of faith that Nneka took at her first meeting with The Trust that catapulted her into her first million dollar year with her new business (We *loved* this!)

“Bless & Block” with Keri Murphy – Reward Podcast Episode 19 Feb 22, 2024

“Beyond the Bag” with Rebecca Minkoff – Reward Podcast Episode 17 Jan 18, 2024

The most successful entrepreneurs almost appear to have a sixth sense of predicting the future. Breakthrough ideas take a certain amount of foresight and (dare we say it) delusion to succeed in predicting the next big thing. (Because you need to believe what may not be “true” now… before the world catches up.)

For designer Rebecca Minkoff – that sixth sense came instinctively. And then her big breakthrough in the early 2000s was actress Jenna Elfman wearing a distinctly Minkoff-designed tee on a late-night TV appearance. The rest was history.

Rebecca is a luminary in the world of fashion, synonymous with accessible luxury, her edgy designs and innovative business strategies have taken her namesake brand to incredible reach and revenues. She is not only the co-founder and creative force behind the globally recognized brand Rebecca Minkoff, but also a passionate advocate for women in business via her Female Founder Collective.

BIG NEWS: We’re excited to have Rebecca joining us as our Special Guest Advisor for The Trust, spending an entire morning with us at our Official Spring Meeting happening in Naples, Florida on March 5+6, 2024. (Psssst – will you be with us? Why not? Join us in time to be there – learn more at JoinTheTrust.org.)

In the meantime, don’t miss this EXCLUSIVE interview with Rebecca right here on Reward with The Trust founder Ali Brown.

On this episode of the #REWARDPodcast, you’ll hear:

The seismic shifts in the fashion industry over the last two decades and how Rebecca Minkoff is breaking the mold (SPOILER: social isn’t going anywhere)
How Rebecca was one of the first brands to invite social influencers to her fashion shows (the big-name fashion editors were trying to BAN them)
A first-look at the innovative way Rebecca is bringing women founders together and tackling gender disparities at higher levels
The ways both Rebecca and Ali are creating impactful safe spaces of connection for women via their missions (and why it’s more important now than EVER)
AND a special invitation to join us for our 2024 Spring Invitation Call on January 30, 2024 at 1pm ET/10am PT to learn more about how you can uplevel your circle to create space to expand your business with The Trust

“Turning Trauma Into Transformation” with Annie Wright – Reward Podcast Episode 14 Nov 23, 2023

Warning: This possibly triggering dialogue about personal growth, workplace healing, and the intrinsic responsibilities of being an entrepreneur is intense — but could be exactly what you need for the leader you are becoming.

Working through our own unresolved traumas is a deeply personal journey. It’s one that we typically don’t consider when setting out to grow a business, because it just feels so… separate. Or so we think.

For Annie Wright, LMFT, it's time to start rewriting the way we look at relational trauma and healing not only for ourselves – but for who we are becoming as *business leaders*… and those around us whom we impact. As a licensed trauma therapist, successful entrepreneur, and passionate advocate for mental health in the workplace, Annie founded Evergreen Counseling — a multimillion-dollar therapy center in Berkeley, CA that specializes in supporting individuals who have experienced relational trauma. And she is a champion for mental health and trauma healing within companies and business environments — in the interest of both employees and founders.

In this episode of Reward, The Trust founder Ali Brown sits down with our member Annie to discuss how *critical* it is for personal growth and unresolved issues to come to light when building your own business, *especially* when our life’s work is so deeply intertwined with our deeper soul-work.

Do NOT miss this.

On this episode of the #REWARDPodcast, you’ll hear:

How Annie’s own journey navigating childhood trauma informed her leadership style
The actionable steps you can take in addressing personal trauma in the workplace (HINT: this means being aware of your own unresolved issues as a leader too!)
Annie’s powerful advice on how "rupture is inevitable, but repair counts” in *every* situation, from kids to clients
Ali’s personal confession of her fears around her own parenting (this was an emotional one!)
The *BEST* therapy methodologies for effective results (it might be time to switch methods for what you need)
Annie and Ali’s mutual love of the coveted Eselan Kale Salad (IYKYK)
AND the affirmation you may have been seeking that your mental health deserves to be protected — not only in your personal life, but as an entrepreneur too!

What it really means to integrate the Divine Feminine and Masculine Presence into business

“Scaling… Intimately” with Dafina Smith - Reward Podcast Episode 8 Aug 24, 2023

There’s more to your journey than the numbers game. But it seems we either hear about growing your business hard and fast, or the alternative “feminine” approaches. What if the concepts of scaling and intimacy were combined, and were incredibly successful, to the tune of multiple 8-figure revenues?

That’s the story of Dafina Smith, founder + CEO of Covet & Mane luxury, hand-tied hair extensions and member of The Trust. And while her current company has become wildly successful, Dafina has had her share of moments where she had to take a deep breath and think about where to go from here,

In this special episode of Reward, The Trust founder Ali Brown sits down with Dafina to hear how she’s reintroducing the “feminine approach” to business.

“Defining Your DNA” with Suneera Madhani – Reward Podcast Episode 7 Aug 17, 2023

Building an empire is all about shooting for the stars. But what happens when you LAND exactly there – not only once, but time and time again?

As the founder of Stax – which earned a $ BILLION dollar valuation last year — Suneera Madhani completely flipped the financial world on its head before age 35. Going up against the old “merchant account mafia” (she described them all as stale, pale, and male!), she pioneered a company based on an entirely new model to help small business owners process credit card payments in a more financially accessible way. The idea took off, and she also saw the company through to a successful exit this past year.

We’re excited to have Suneera joining us as our Special Guest Advisor for The Trust. She’ll be spending an entire morning with us at our Fall Meeting happening here in Scottsdale, AZ on September 12-13, 2023. Our members are so excited to meet her! (And if you’d like to apply to join us, go to JoinTheTrust.org.)

In this special episode of Reward, The Trust founder Ali Brown sits down with this powerhouse daughter of Pakistani immigrants to hear how she broke through the matrix of an incredibly outdated financial system. But you’ll also hear how she also honored her team in the process, and how now stepping AWAY during her company’s peak actually opened her up to MORE abundance than she could have ever imagined. (We love this part!)

On this episode of the #REWARDPodcast, you’ll hear:

Suneera’s reformed identity as a “recovering workaholic” and how it’s actually allowed her to hone in on the things that matter.
The reality that letting go of Stax would come with an unexpected grieving period
The advice that every woman in business should consider when it comes to *reclaiming* their time to focus on what *truly* is a priority
A look into Suneera’s most recent project, The CEO School (she’s helping women earn more + work less!)
The real reward from building a $ BILLION dollar business (it may not be what you think!)

“The Power of True Alignment” with Emily Countryman – Reward Podcast Episode 6 Aug 10, 2023

Oftentimes, our ego can cloud our judgment. As entrepreneurs, we want our businesses to grow and we make the necessary sacrifices to do so (sometimes at the expense of our sanity)! But we know in the long game of business – especially at the higher levels – intentional and steady wins the race.

Emily Countryman is no stranger to hustling to build her business, but now it’s a different type of growth. As the founder and CEO of Shift, Set, Go – a renowned group of weight-loss clinics in the Northwest that also now features its own product line, she has navigated the ever-changing wellness landscape for years. Today she has a unique model based on some big decisions that she shares in this interview.

In this episode of Reward, The Trust founder Ali Brown sits down with our founding member Emily to not only to unlock her secret of big growth so quickly, but how she primed herself perfectly to jump into this new phase with more intention than ever before.

AND… be sure to listen to the VERY END to hear Emily’s BOLD business move that allowed her to grow her business by several franchisees! (Hint: Jenny Craig’s demise was her gain.)

On this episode of the #REWARDPodcast, you’ll hear:

Emily’s ah-ha moment that allowed her to shift from ego-driven to intention-based business decisions
How that success can come from doing what you love, making decisions that feel good, and staying true to your values
How shutting down one of her brick-and-mortar locations during the pandemic forced Emily to dive into the expansive world of online training

“Slowing Down… to Go Farther” with Tanya Dalton — Reward Podcast Episode 5 Jul 27, 2023

Is the concept of TIME becoming a bit obsolete in the world of entrepreneurship? In the traditional sense, yes. And productivity expert Tanya Dalton is breaking down the barriers for how we perceive time as business owners (who obviously need to be REALLY productive)!

For Tanya, time has always been of the essence. How could it not be while leading her company InkWell Press to multi-million dollar success and beyond, and seeing her products used by thousands of productive people? (You’ve seen her planners in stores like Target and Staples.)

Well, all that is exactly why she was quick to notice all of the ways we’re actually *hurting* ourselves by not slowing down. So today she drops incredible truths like these through her most recent OxfordTalk and interviews like this one, flipping the script on how we look at time management.

In this episode of Reward, The Trust founder Ali Brown sits down with our founding member Tanya to not only break down her story of how productivity became “her lane”, but how what she saw as productive also started to shift for herself, her team, and her family.

On this episode of the #REWARDPodcast, you’ll hear:

Tanya’s key to shifting from a scarcity mindset to abundance and collaboration (it’s simpler than you think!)
How true productivity lies in asking how we LIVE, not just how we work
The powerful moment that told Tanya it was time to let go of her business baby and sell her company (we loved this one!)
How she was able to step away from her company and actually do more for its mission as a result
Ali and Tanya’s take on time as a social construct (stay with us here!) and the impact of the good ol’ Industrial Revolution
The REAL reward behind relinquishing “control” and saying goodbye to time “management”

“Leading with Love” with Kris Murray — Reward Podcast Episode 4 Jul 13, 2023

Let’s be honest – In the hustle to 8-figures, the last thing we’ve been geared to ask is, “How can I be more loving?”. From our business to our personal lives, we are often pressured into being tough enough for the job. But what if you knew the moments of softness, grace, and love would foster the biggest breakthroughs… and even while being a business badass?

For Kris Murray, founder of The Childcare Success Company, the hustle came naturally. Recognizing the lack of support that early childhood educators had led her to not only creating a solution, but the largest one of its kind in the world. By taking her marketing knowledge and combining it with her “mom hat”, she was able to create systems for childcare businesses and founded an Inc. 5000-ranked coaching company that helps preschools, daycares, and childcare centers worldwide elevate their operations.

In this episode of Reward, The Trust founder Ali Brown sits down with our member Kris to not only get the secret recipe on how to rapidly grow a business using authenticity and heart, but also uncover what has been the real reward.

On this episode of the #REWARDPodcast, you’ll hear:

How Kris felt the divine pull call her to pivot from her career in manufacturing and jump headfirst into the child-care industry
Her “Oh Sh*t” moment after her first book was published where she recognized her power in the market
The devastating betrayal that acted as a major catalyst for scaling her business (we hope you’re sitting down for this one)
Kris’s advice for trusting yourself as you move into your next phase as an entrepreneur
How Ali and Kris first met, and who they were following at the time! (Hint: Some people think he’s dead - but he’s not! ;))

“Stages of Wealth-Building for Women” with Michelle Bosch — Reward Podcast Episode 3 Jun 23, 2023

Women have proven that we can be great EARNERS. But how can we now truly build WEALTH for ourselves? Even as entrepreneurs, we often get so caught up in the making of the money that we miss opportunities to invest that money wisely. Or, we just hand it over to a financial advisor and don’t think about it much more.

For Michelle Bosch, making a profit was only the beginning to creating TRUE abundance and generational wealth that will carry on to her daughter.

Originally from Honduras, Michelle began her real estate investing journey here in the U.S. in 2002. She co-founded Orbit Investments along with her new husband Jack (also an immigrant – from Germany). They started with buying and flipping land (which they teach today via their Land Profit Generator program) and worked their way up to buying multifamily properties such as apartment complexes. And their efforts have paid off: Today their real estate portfolio is a true American dream, worth well over $50 million.

In this episode of Reward, The Trust founder Ali Brown sits down with our member Michelle to not only break down her story of how she got started, but clearly outline Michelle’s personal system and tools of building wealth.

On this episode of the #REWARDPodcast, you’ll hear:

Why Michelle has AVOIDED hiring the typical “financial advisor” and what she does instead (and it’s obviously working!)
The power of tools like self-directed IRAs, estate planning, and unique tax strategies
How ONE decision made by her father back in Honduras before he died not only took care of Michelle and her mom, but taught them how to build wealth from the start.
How she’s now teaching her teenage daughter how to start building her own wealth, step by step, through her 3 phases of wealth building
How wealth in Michelle’s view goes far BEYOND money (we loved this one)
Ali’s favorite quote about what becoming a millionaire does to you.

“Surrendering Leads to the Magic” with Sunny Smith, MD — Reward Podcast Episode 2 Jun 23, 2023

Women entrepreneurs don’t… SURRENDER. I mean, really! We can’t. Because we’re making things happen, blazing new trails, holding it together, and getting sh*t done. Right?

But what happens when, as a powerful woman, we are put in a position where we have no choice to surrender?

Often, it actually leads to the biggest magic of our lives.

Sunny Smith shares on today’s show that it was her moments of forced surrender that actually held the key to her greatest breakthroughs… and greatest impact on others.

In this candid episode of Reward, The Trust founder Ali Brown sits down with this creator of Empowering Women Physicians (EWP), former family MD, and mom who is currently based in Puerto Rico.

On this episode of the #REWARDPodcast, you’ll hear:

Sunny’s thought-provoking take on why we as women equate our self-worth to sacrifice, especially in the medical industry
How Sunny’s traumatic bike accident in Moorea brought her career to a screeching halt and forced her to examine her deeply unsustainable life
Why pouring into the women of her EWP community healed her relationship with work-life balance and gave her a goal of bringing humanity back to service-based professions
A behind-the-scenes peek into her private coaching retreats for EWP (she was just following up with recent guest Elizabeth Gilbert!)
How the power of women-based connection (in circles like The Trust!) flipped her perspective on receiving vs giving

Sunny is a true force for women in the world of medicine and we are so honored to experience her wisdom as a member of The Trust. Be sure to tune in to this intimate conversation discussing the power of aligning your values, intuition, and aspirations in both life and business – It’s not one to miss.
