You’ve got the skills. You’ve done the prep. But the moment you walk into the room (or log into Zoom), it’s like you’re playing a different game. Everything seemed fine when you were doing the work and sailing through the projects. But to articulate that to someone who doesn’t know you…ugh. In these cases, your words matter. Your tone matters. And don’t even get me started on your posture, your facial expressions, and even how you listen. If you’ve ever walked away from an interview thinking, I wish they’d seen the real me, this week’s lesson is for you. I’m breaking down the exact verbal and nonverbal moves that top candidates use to win over interviewers both in-person and on-screen. Here’s what you’ll learn: How to project confidence and warmth the second the conversation starts. The posture, gestures, and micro-expressions that build trust. How to use your voice to emphasize your value (without sounding rehearsed). Why “active listening” is your secret weapon in any interview format. Whether you’re across the table or on the other side of the screen, these tactics will help you look, sound, and feel like the top candidate every time.

We’ve all been there. You say something. You think it makes sense. But the reaction you get? Confused. Unmoved. Maybe even tuned out. Ugh. Communication isn’t about what you say. It’s about what the other person hears and, more importantly, how they feel and act because of it. If you’re not getting the results you want from your conversations, whether in meetings, emails, presentations, or even casual exchanges, there’s a reason. This week, I’m sharing 2 simple ways to instantly improve your communication skills. These aren’t gimmicks or tricks. They’re straightforward changes you can make right away to: ✅ Be clearer. ✅ Get buy-in faster. ✅ Avoid misinterpretations. ✅ Sound more thoughtful, credible, and composed. Communication is THE SKILL that connects your value to the world. If you want to influence, lead, or be remembered, this is where you start.

In this week’s lesson, I’m sharing 5 powerful books that’ll help you build wealth and maximize your earning power. These aren’t just theory-packed reads. They are the exact books I’d recommend if you asked me, “What should I read to take control of my finances and income?” I run over a great book I think anyone and everyone should read to understand general investment strategy. I hit a (very) surprisingly entertaining (and hugely helpful) guide that breaks down investing in its simplest form. Of course, you know me. I love mindset and psychology, so I tossed in a couple that separate spenders from wealth builders. And, now list regarding wealth-building would be complete if I didn’t toss in the #1 book, IMHO, that’ll help you improve your professional skills. Your skills directly affect your salary and income and overall earning potential. Amiright?!?!? These books are for professionals who want to put together an investment strategy, make smarter financial decisions, and grow their income with purpose.

You’ve probably heard the phrase “don’t sweat the small stuff.” Well, I’m here to tell you to do the exact opposite. If you want to perform at the highest level, if you want to grow in your role, get promoted, or become a standout in your field, you better sweat the small stuff.  Because that’s where mastery lives.  This week, I’m sharing one of the most important performance lessons I can give you.  Whether I’m talking about writing emails, managing a team, speaking with clients, or building a long-term financial future, the people who succeed are the ones who obsess (productively) over the right things.  In this talk, I’ll walk you through: Why greatness lives in the details (with stories to prove it). How top performers think differently about their craft. A powerful health and wealth analogy that might just change how you approach your career. You’ll come away with a better approach for how to improve your day-to-day work and make long-term progress in your profession and finances.  Just 8:46 and one of the best mental models I’ve shared…  If you'd like to build a great career and lead a rewarding life, check out some of these other places where I share my teachings: 1.

There’s a career skill no one taught you in school. It’s not on your resume. It’s rarely on a job description. But it’s the difference between being heard and being trusted. Between managing and truly leading.  Empathy.  And here’s the kicker…  Most people think they have it. But very few understand what it actually is or how to build it.  Today’s lesson is one of my most personal. I’ll walk you through the three types of empathy (yes, there are three), show you how to practice them, and share a story that changed how I live and love (this WILL bring a smile to your face).  If you want to deepen your relationships, earn trust faster, and elevate your career, this one’s for you.

This week’s a special one. I’m going back to one of the most important lessons I’ve ever taught.  Self-awareness. Not the generic, “journal your feelings” kind. I’m talking about a powerful, real-world framework that shows you where your life is out of alignment.  Most people define self-awareness as “knowing yourself.”But there are actually two types: Internal self-awareness: How well do you know who you are? External self-awareness: Do you understand how others perceive you?  Both matter. A lot.  And most people aren’t nearly as accurate as they think. That misalignment causes stress. Bad decisions. Unfulfilling jobs. Relationships that drain instead of energize. In today’s lesson, I walk you through the six pillars of self-awareness.  It’s THE practical way to measure whether your life, work, thoughts, goals, and habits are aligned with the person you say you want to be.  This isn’t theory. It’s a diagnostic.And it’s going to help you course-correct in a powerful way.  If your inner and outer life feel even a little out of sync… this one’s for you.

Question for ya… When the interviewer asks you to “tell me about a time when…,” do you: A) Launch into a timeline of tasks you completed? B) Rattle off a list of responsibilities? C) Sound like your own resume? (Oy to the vey.) If so, don’t worry. You’re not alone. But you are probably leaving value on the table. Here is a capital “T” truth… Most people report work history. Few, if any, tell real stories. Almost no one uses those stories to sell who they truly are. But that’s exactly what interview storytelling should be. This week’s podcast is one of the most important lessons I can give you on how to elevate your interview game and position yourself as THE standout candidate. Excitement alert: You will squeal with glee if you’ve ever wondered I’m just a cog in the wheel and my background feels narrow. I’m not sure how to sound valuable or impactful. What you’ll learn alert:The real purpose of storytelling in interviews (big hint: it’s not just to explain what you did). Why sounding “too junior” is a storytelling issue, not an experience issue. Bulletproof way to reframe your stories so they show off your big-picture thinking and leadership qualities. You’re not just there to fill a role. You’re there to drive transformation. To show them what’s possible when they hire you, you need to… 🔴 STOP telling tasks. 🟢 START selling you. You’ve got more to offer than just your recent “job title.” Now it’s time to tell that story.

I know it’s tempting. A recruiter emails you with your job offer. You want to reply quickly. Clear things up. Maybe even negotiate. But email is the worst place to have that conversation. Why? Have you ever heard of Albert Mehrabian? He developed “The Mehrabian Rule.” Catchy, yes. But more importantly, true. His rule is also known as the 7-38-55 rule. It suggests, that in communication, the impact of any message is divided into pieces. 7% from the words spoken (or, in your inclination, written). 38% from the tone of your voice. 55% from your body language. Now, I realize you might not have my 9 semesters of higher math I needed to endure at THE Iowa State University to get my rarely-used Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, so let me help you with the calculation. That’s 93% of your communication power not at your disposal in an email. When it comes to negotiating your salary, tone, timing, and tactics matter. Plus, the real-time going round-and-round and back-and-forth is somewhat necessary. You basically lose all these necessities when you're using a keyboard! So, what should you do instead? Start by listening to my nifty podcast on Never Negotiate Salary Over Email | Do This Instead. Then do what I teach in the podcast. All that’ll be left after that is for you to think of me with every automatic deposit of your big paycheck!

Ever felt cornered when a recruiter asks, “What’s your expected salary?” Only you and about a bajillion other job seekers. I’m a little sick and tired of silly recruiters cornering you about this. It’s TOO EARLY in the process to be doing this nonsense. Why do people not show each other their “balance sheets” on the first date, amiright?!?! Even so, your matchmaker Coach here wants you to handle the pressure with grace and simultaneously avoid lowballing or highballing yourself.

Lisa asked me a great question the other day. “Coach, how do I know which story to tell in a job interview?” Here’s what I told her. If you want to win the interview, there’s one thing to focus on. Function. As in, what they actually need you to do. Not who you are. Not how nice you seem.What. You. Can. Do. See, you get hired for WHAT you can do. You get fired for WHO you are. So, here’s a quick video to you dial in your focus during the interview. In this shortie (well, Coach Andy’s version of shortie), I walk through: What to look for in the job description. How to reverse-engineer your stories. And how to match what you say to the work they need done. Because if they don’t believe you can do the thing… You don’t get the thing. Hope this helps you dial in and dial up your next interview! If you'd like to build a great career and lead a rewarding life, check out some of these other places where I share my teachings: 1.

Worried your age is playing villain in your job search? Lemme tell about Jayme. She joined my Job Search Coaching Program when she was 74. Got a job with Verizon by beating out literally 10s of thousands of people. She says so right here in the over 50 section (but I’m wondering if I should create an over 70 section). 🤔 Then, after five years of that, hopped back into the program (it’s simple with that lifetime access thing) and got another job at 79 years young. If she can do it, you can do it! Age doesn’t need to be an anchor. I like to wear mine (almost 59, but don’t look a day over 57!) as the badge of honor it truly is. But I know employers have biases. So, I want you armed with the same tips Jayme used. And I jammed them into 4 minutes because, well, no one is getting any younger. Amiright?!?!?! I dish out 9 tips to related to how you present yourself and how you search. I touched on sneaky-smart resume tweaks, job search tactical maneuvers, and, of course, storytelling techniques that show your wisdom and prove your value.

Happy Sunday. I know many people are at church right now praying and healing and doing a bunch of other beneficial acts.  Need some healing from your job search? Have you ever heard of the “wild horse effect?” Story goes the horses in the African savanna tend to get bitten by bats. The bats draw a miniscule amount of blood, but the horses, because of the minor irritation, go crazy, run around, get exhausted, and basically realize their downfall. All from a tiny little bite that is the equivalent of pinch. I don’t think you need a neon sign to get the analogy, but to give you a scoot, the employers are the bats. I’ve got a little something today to heal those bites so you don’t start running around stressed and exhausted… If you'd like to build a great career and lead a rewarding life, check out some of these other places where I share my teachings: 1.

There’s a spectrum of proficiency, and it starts in the worst possible place. That’s when you’re unconsciously incompetent—you're not good at something, and worse, you don’t even know you’re bad at it or what to do about it. Think job interviewing. If you put in some effort, you might move to consciously incompetent stage—you know what you should do (like the strategies your dear Coachy Andy teaches), but you’re not quite there yet. Fast forward through the grind, and let’s skip some steps for email brevity, until you hit the sweet spot: unconsciously competent. That’s when you’re so good, it’s automatic. You’re nailing it without even thinking about it. As your coach, I’m here every week to help you climb this spectrum, especially when it comes to building your career. And let’s face it—interviewing is one of the biggest hurdles in career advancement. So, we’re tackling that head-on this week. Today, we’re uncovering the three most brutal interview killers that trip up 99% of job candidates. Spoiler alert: they’re all about storytelling.
