Jeff Noel and I talk about the opportunity for you to join us on a retreat at Glacier National Park.
As is our tradition when we have guests on, Andy Storch is back with me with three questions, which I have no prior knowledge of:
What are your favorite and least favorite aspects of running my business? I am a people person and that heavily influences my answer to this question.
What is your favorite national park and what is one you haven’t been to? If you force me, I can boil it down to two, but the winner depends on which park I am standing in at the time. I also have a few honorable mentions I need to fit in.
What is the biggest mistake podcasters make and what is the most annoying thing some podcasters do and should stop? Podcasters aren’t radio hosts, but often they try and do this one thing like a radio personality and it can be detrimental to their show.
What do post-production, monetizing podcasts and grizzly attacks have in common? These are the answers to the bonus three questions Andy snuck in by adding a part two to each question.

If there is anything 2020 has taught us, it is the importance of connection. Whether in personal relationships or professional endeavors, investing in connecting with people should be a top priority. Andy Storch, a podcaster, new author, and fabulous trainer just released his first book and we are unpacking the importance of investing in your network.
Reading Andy’s book, Own Your Career and Own Your Life, chapter 10 jumped out at me. The topic and challenge of purposely investing in building a network resonated. Networking can be an intimidating topic, but as Andy so eloquently explains, it isn’t doing things or making a connection for the quid pro quo. All networking is...is being intentional about showing up, genuinely, for those you connect with. Be it in person or via social media, be present, give lift to others and let them into your life. Lead with curiosity and generosity. When you can, give people a platform. Offer help without expecting anything in return.
Expectations will lead to disappointment. By building real, trusting relationships with others (without being motivated by what you can get out of it) is what networking is all about.

Let's spend a day together. This episode of The Jody Maberry Show documents a day of recording podcasts, videos, and other content.
People often ask me how I get so much done with 7 active podcasts and the other work I do. To answer the question, I spent a day and documented it.
Throughout the episode, you will get to join me as I record podcasts and have some conversations with some of the people I work with regularly.
In our time together, we will be joined by:
Jeff Noel: We record 3 episode of If Disney Ran Your Life.
Lee Cockerell: We recorded some promotional videos for the Cockerell Academy and recorded one episode of Creating Disney Magic.
Andy Storch: We record a couple of episodes of The Jody Maberry Show.
Dan Cockerell: We had a call about promoting The Perch Community.
Mike Simmons: We recorded an episode of the Catalyst Sale Podcast.
You will hear some behind the scenes conversation about what goes into each of the shows and projects we are working on.
Too often, we live a story someone else told us we should.
But you get to choose the character you want to be in the story you are living. Don't hang onto expectations of your parents, boss, a high school bully, or anyone else who told you who and what you are.
Who you are is completely up to you.
This episode, I use an interview from the podcast Foreward with Joe Pomeroy. During my conversation with Joe, we talked about some topics I had never discussed on the Jody Maberry Show.
Since the conversation with Joe was so good, I am sharing the interview from his podcast. This conversation will help you understand how your life is a story that is written by you. Your actions should be deliberate so your life is a story worth telling your kids about.
