In this raw and emotional episode, I take you back to the place where everything changed for me, Chandler Regional Hospital, the site of the emergency surgery that left me temporarily paralyzed and cracked my world wide open in 2018.What started as a visit to support a friend brought me full circle, standing in the same ER where I once faced the darkest moment of my life. And it reminded me of something deep: your scars don’t disqualify you... they define you.This episode is for the ones carrying pain from the past. For the ones hiding parts of their story, thinking it makes them less of a leader, less worthy, less seen. I want you to know, your story could be the key that unlocks someone else's breakthrough. Your story could be the thing that inspires them to make changes. Your story could be the catalyst for their change.In this episode, we talk about:- Turning pain into purpose- The power of sharing your story (even when it’s messy)- How to stop dragging yesterday’s weight into today- Why the lion with the scars is the one that’s truly undefeatedIf you’ve ever felt like your past disqualified you from making an impact, this is your reminder: your scars are proof you survived the battle and someone out there needs your story.

In this episode, I’m breaking down one of my core life principles: Never Miss a Monday. It’s not just about fitness or getting a workout in. It’s about momentum. It’s about drawing a line in the sand, choosing to leave last week behind, and taking action today on the things you’ve been putting off.I’ll share how this mindset has changed my life, why you can do anything for seven days, and how small, consistent action builds massive progress over time. I truly believe that you can change your entire life in 7 days. This is your reminder that you don’t have to wait for a new month or a new year to start becoming who you’re meant to be. You’ve got a fresh start every single Monday. Use it.Tune in, get fired up, and decide what action you’re going to take today that future you will thank you for.
Last night, a buddy of mine sent me a copy of the book he just published. And holding that book in my hands reminded me of something powerful: when you step out and do the thing that’s been calling you, you don’t just change your life… you change other people’s lives too.This episode is about pushing past fear, doubt, and all the “I’m not ready” excuses that keep us stuck. It’s about the ripple effect your courage can have on the world—and how many people are waiting on you to finally go do the damn thing. So if you’ve got a dream, a goal, or a calling you’ve been putting off… this one’s for you. Hit play and let’s talk about it.
What does the highest and best version of me look like? Am I living what I was built to be? These are 2 questions I’ve been really sitting with. And not like causally thinking about.These questions have consumed me for the past week. They have made me reevaluate and analyze everything in my life. They have made me take some radical responsibility and accountability for things. And they are shaping me into the highest and best version of me.I think these 2 questions are profound and wanted to share with you too! Sit with them. Spend time in prayer with them. Mediate with them. Because once you start answering them, massive changes can happen.
None of us are given a playbook for this thing we call life. We are learning it and living it in real time. Real time lessons learned, real time mistakes, real time accountability and real time changes. As you are going through things, just know you are human and to give yourself grace. You will fail and you will mess up. But there's only one way to learn the lesson, by going through it. As Jocko says "GOOD". Good, know you know what not to do again. Take the lesson, be accountable and be better for it. That's how you get stronger and build into the ultimate version of you.
Any type of progress is still progress. Some days you crush a big goal. Other days, just getting out of bed feels like a win. No matter how big or small your progress today is, either way... it counts and it’s still progress.This topic has been on my mind lately, so just recorded this new episode of the podcast that’s all about honoring where you’re at… and celebrating how far you’ve come. I share a powerful reflection exercise I personally did yesterday that made me say: “Damn… I’ve actually come a long way. I’m not who I used to be”If you’ve been in the grind lately, feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just needing a little perspective, this one’s for you. I truly think this episode and the exercise I share in it can be very impactful for you.And remember, You’re doing better than you think. It might not feel like it. And you might not see it all right now. But every day you can make progress and get one step closer to becoming who you want to be!Keep going and stay the course. I believe in you. ❤️ Nicky T
Just in case you needed to hear it... I am proud of you, I see you and I believe in you!
Everyone’s talking about A.I. like it’s some magic money💰machine… But here’s the truth:If you’re relying on some automated A.I. follow-up tool to magically create content, make connections and close deals for you, you’re gonna stay stuck.In this episode, I break down my real take on A.I. as a business owner in 2025.Yeah, I use A.I. every day.It helps me create content, speed things up, and stay efficient.But when it comes to actually closing business?👉 You still need to show up.👉 You still need to connect.👉 You still need to follow up like a real human.A business owner recently asked me,“Hey Nicky, what A.I. tool do you use to follow up with your leads?”And I said: “I don’t. I just call them.”That blew his mind. We’ve gotten so used to automating everything that we forget how powerful it is to just text someone back, call someone, or have a real convo that builds trust.You don’t need a magic follow-up machine.You need a simple, real system…. powered by YOU.So if you’re tired of spinning your wheels, chasing the shiny new ai 🤖 tools and tricks…this episode is your reset button and a reminder to why the basic, analog old school stuff still works!
In this episode, I’m coming to you raw and real.I’ve been an entrepreneur for 20 years — I’ve built businesses, lost businesses, made millions, lost millions, had business partners rob me, had $100K months and $100K losses. I’ve seen all of it.And through it all, I’ve learned one thing:You’ve gotta talk about the real sh*t.Not the fake flexes.Not the "I made $10K in 10 minutes" nonsense.Just truth. From the trenches. From experience. From growth.So that’s what today’s episode is all about —Why you need to stop chasing vanity metrics…And start creating from your heart, from your story, from the things you’ve lived through.Here’s what I cover:Why your failures are actually fuelWhat kind of content really builds connection (hint: it’s not the viral stuff)Why I stopped posting just to postThe importance of health, sobriety, faith, family, and building a business that fuels your life — not consumes itHow real stories attract real people (and real clients)If you’ve ever felt burnt out by content…If you’re sick of the “guru game”…If you want to make a real impact — this one’s for you.Let’s get back to what matters.Let’s talk about the real sh*t.
Today’s episode is coming to you way off the beaten path—from 250 acres of open land in Texas. No fancy mic setup, no script—just me, some hawks flying overhead, and yeah… a herd of cows that tried to run me down. (true story!)But in the middle of all that, I had this moment of real, raw gratitude. And I had to hit record.This episode is a reminder—for both of us—to slow down for a second and actually see how far we’ve come. If you’re a business owner, creator, or just someone always chasing the next big milestone, you probably don’t give yourself enough credit. I get it. I’ve done it too.Whether you just had your first $10K month, left a toxic job, lost 10 pounds, launched your first funnel, or survived a crazy year—pause. Take a deep breath. Celebrate that. Not everything has to be about grinding to $10 million and a private jet.If your dream is $20K/month and more beach days, that’s a badass goal. If it’s 100K/year and breakfast with your kids every morning, that’s success in my book.Take a walk, take a breath, and take this episode in. You’ve come a long way and I’m proud of you. 🎧 Tune in and let’s reflect together.
Yo, what’s up my friends—Nicky T here, and today’s episode is all about reminding you of one simple truth: Success for you doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s. There’s no one “right” way to build your business, grow your audience, or create success. You don’t have to do what the loudest voice on the internet says.You don’t have to follow some guru’s 17-step content plan.You don’t have to hustle in a way that burns you out.There are a million ways to win—and the only thing that matters is finding the approach that feels right for you, fits your lifestyle, and moves you toward your goals.In this episode, I challenge you to take a step back, zoom out, and ask:- Where do I actually want to go?- What strategies and tools feel good for me?- What’s the pace, the style, the vibe that fits my life?...This is your permission to stop comparing, stop feeling like you’re doing it wrong, and start owning your path.Success gets a lot more fun when you do it your way.Tune in and let's go carve your own wave 🌊
In this episode, I’m driving from San Diego to Phoenix and you’re riding shotgun. Just you, me, and some real talk about why most business owners are posting all the time… and still not getting leads. I unpack the exact social media strategy I’ve used to generate thousands of leads and millions in revenue not by posting more, but by posting with a plan.Most people are just throwing stuff up and hoping it works. That’s not a strategy—that’s a waste of time. So if you’re tired of getting zero results from your content, this one’s for you.In this episode, we’ll cover:✅ Why your content probably isn’t working✅ The 3-part video script that actually gets leads✅ How to stop being “random” and start being intentional✅ What to post, how to say it, and how to stand out✅ Real-deal examples from the road (literally)Tune in and we'll break it all down!
A good mentor is short cut to success in anything you want to do. They've already gone before you and figured things out and can cut down your learning curve and fast forward your results. I've been very fortunate to have great mentors in my life and the ideas they've shared have added millions of dollars to my bottom line. And that's what we unpack in this episde!
On this episode, we had my good friend Loren King in studio and we unpacked "The Human Experience" with her. We chatted about having a mission that is bigger than yourself, making an impact in this world, taking risks, pivoting, betting on yourself and surrounding yourself with other people who are all doing the same thing!
In this episode, we unpack how Kevin added $500K of revenue to his HVAC business in the past 6 months using his lead follow up strategies. He also just wrote a brand new book called "Conquer the Follow Up" and we chat all about that too!
This is a super special episode with our guest Casey Schultz. One year ago, Casey was touring office/studio space for his video agency. He took a video, telling himself he'd be moved into this space one day. And one year later, him and I are sitting in his brand new filming studio at that exact location he filmed a year before! I stopped in to see the new space, drop off a gift and celebrate his huge accomplishment and he asked me to mic up and record. But I had a better idea... we put the mic on him and Casey got to be the very first podcast interview and tell his story in his new studio! There's so much to learn from this talented young man and his ability to not only set goals, but to turn those dreams into reality! See you in the episode.
I just read a quote, “The entire point of life is to take chances on dreams that seem crazy to most, but feel like destiny to you. -Case Kenny” and that inspired today's episode. I'm asked all day long for a new strategy, hack or tactic to grow your business or be more productive. It's NOT about a new strategy. It's about the WHY. It's about the direction you are going and chasing down the dreams that excite you! And that's exactly what we unpack in today's episode. I truly hope this helps you stop and spend some time on your big dreams and the things that set your soul on fire!
