Tanner Brock has returned to discuss his newest resource, a five-step system to gaining true mentors in your life.
Tanner is many things, namely the founder and CEO of Changing Discourse and host of the Changing Discourse Podcast. After six years of seeking out and learning from some of the best mentors, Tanner shares how to find the right mentors with us today.
Once you identify someone you want to mentor you, there are five things to do.
Mentors teach you something, and then you can take it and teach others.

When it comes to sales, following a cookie-cutter approach often leads to frustration and missed opportunities. I learned this firsthand while selling my car on Facebook Marketplace. A lot of the success depends on authenticity, attention to detail, and a clear understanding of what buyers value.
Effective sales descriptions, setting the right price, and embracing transparency can transform your sales results. It can be as simple as choosing the right words and repeating key details. Understand that price sets the tone for a buyer’s perception. Doing good work, even if unnoticed by most, still makes a difference.
His experience reinforces that differentiation is key—you don’t need to copy someone else’s success to create your own. By being transparent and focusing on adding value, you not only build trust but also set yourself apart in a crowded marketplace.
If you're ready to improve your sales effectiveness and engage customers more meaningfully, start by applying these lessons. Be clear, be authentic, and don’t be afraid to create your own path.

Cassie Tucker started working with me one year ago. Initially, Cassie provided support for the work I was doing. Over time, her role expanded, and now she provides operational support and marketing strategy for my business and our clients. We've worked together on product launches and events.
Cassie joins us for this episode of The Jody Maberry Show to discuss what she has learned during her one year working for Maberica, INC. Cassie talks about how living out your dream is possible in ways you might not expect, the importance of processes, leadership lessons she's learned from clients, how to have intention behind every piece of marketing, and how to become an excellent podcast host.
We also discuss some of our upcoming projects, including the book release for Lee Cockerell's Career Magic and the launch of my suite of podcasting courses.
Cassie has become the co-host of the Will Talks Biz podcast. We share the story behind that show and how Cassie became the co-host.
