   How to Buy Back Your Time and Scale Smarter Using AI Agents With Entrepreneur Zulfiya Forsythe

   What if the secret to growing your business wasn’t working harder—but building something that works without you? In this episode, I’m joined by Zulfiya Forsythe, a Boston-based entrepreneur, wife, and mom who's quietly helping business owners eliminate over one million hours of repetitive work through the power of AI agents. After being laid off during her first pregnancy, Zulfiya landed a $4,600 freelance project—and never looked back. Today, she runs Omadli Group, an AI automation agency that empowers founders to reclaim their time, scale with confidence, and step fully into the visionary role they were meant for. We talk about the emotional side of being the bottleneck in your own business, the shift from hustle to freedom, and what it really looks like to grow with integrity and ease. Zulfiya even gives us a live demo of one of her AI voice agents—and trust me, it’s wild how human it sounds. If you’ve ever felt like your business owns you, or you’re stuck doing everything yourself, this conversation will change how you think about delegation, technology, and the kind of CEO you truly want to be.

[05:00] Zulfiya shares her entrepreneurial journey, starting after being laid off in 2020. Her first freelance job gave her confidence, and she still keeps her first $4,600 check as motivation. [10:00] She balanced a full-time job, a scrappy real estate project, and motherhood while building her business. A second layoff in 2023 pushed her to pursue entrepreneurship full-time.

Key lessons: the importance of mentorship, focusing on a niche, and avoiding “analysis paralysis.” [20:00] Zulfiya explains AI agents as large...

   Personal Brand, Powerful Business – How to Lead with Radical Authenticity with Marina Byezhanova

   In this episode, we dive into what it really takes to grow a standout personal brand—and why it might be the most important business strategy you’re not using yet. I'm joined by Marina Byezhanova, Co-Founder of Brand of a Leader, a seven-figure personal branding agency that helps Gen X entrepreneurs and C-suite leaders step confidently into the spotlight. We talk about entrepreneurship, immigrant resilience, and how Marina turned introspection and authenticity into her greatest assets in business. She shares the real reasons thought leadership matters now more than ever, how to humanize your message without oversharing, and why your personal brand is an expression of who you are—not what you sell. Marina also unpacks why Gen X leaders are uniquely positioned for influence (but often avoid the spotlight), and how her team guides clients to find their unique voice, build visibility, and stay top of mind through organic, human-centered content. If you're a founder, service provider, or industry expert ready to scale your business and build meaningful authority—this is for you.

Transcript [00:00] Marina introduces her passion for radical authenticity and why Brand of a Leader exists: helping people speak and show up authentically instead of conforming to groupthink. [05:00] She shares the resilience it took to co-found her agency during the pandemic, when uncertainty and isolation forced her to create energy and vision internally. [10:00] Marina explains why they focus on Gen X and C-suite leaders—many feel forgotten, uncomfortable with visibility, and resistant to sharing publicly. Her agency helps them package authentic stories with confidence. [15:00] She stresses that personal branding is not about what you sell but who you are. Their process begins with introspection, interviews, and brand...

Shifting focus outward helps dissolve personal roadblocks. [20:00] Transitioning out of dealerships, he sought more alignment and autonomy. Travel and reflection clarified his next step: combining his passion for finance with helping people overcome trust...

How to Buy Back Your Time and Scale Smarter Using AI Agents With Entrepreneur Zulfiya Forsythe

Published 23 Sept 2025 · Transcript excerpt

[…] They have a business operations problem. And this is where I have a voice AI agent, Vicky, for example. And I would love to demo it. I would love to comment and kind of show you as well. It picks up every call. Then it makes sure there's a follow-up. It sends a form. It books an appointment for you. And it enters that record into the system. So you actually see the lead came in. What was the last time you talked to them? What was a follow up about how many times you follow up with them, for example, and was there any appointment or if it's urgent 24 hours, it pins the right technician. And if that technician is not answering, it pins them again and tells you notifications. […]
