This is THE non-business podcast for business owners. Entrepreneurs get to talk about anything BUT work for 20 minutes - no filters and nothing off limits! (They get to share info about their products, services, or audience gifts afterward.)
Why? Because there's more to being a business owner... than just business.
Success in “The City” to Cow Tipping Lessons?
Crazy fun interview with Krystle begins with her move at 20yo to NYC from Trinidad. A single child, from a small town and island, away from her home, family and friends for the first time… and up for a challenge.
How did she make it in “The City that Never Sleeps”? (I’ve been there and it doesn't. Don’t ever get a room street side facing Times Square). Answer: finding people with the same interests. Compartmentalized Friends. Ones to go the movies with. Another group to work out with. Another group to swim in the fountain in Central Park… Yeah. No. That’s not real.
Her view of life and words to live by if you want success: “If you wanna go fast, go alone; if you wanna go far, go with others.”
Bringing this episode to a close would be advice on “cow tipping” and Krystle offering instructions for using the NYC Subway (now I get it, after 60 years).
2:00 - moved from Trinidad, Tobago at 20 to NYC. First time away from her family, friends and home.
5:20 - compartmentalized friends; big city and best way to meet friends was to find those with similar interests. Friends to go to movies with, friends to go to the gym with, etc…
9:00 - started writing as a way of dealing with tragedy. Writes from the heart and emotion so readers identify with her.
13:00 - “If you wanna go fast, go alone; if you wanna go far, go with others.”
15:00 - Understand fear… do not worry about fear, move around inside of it, and it will drop away.
16:50 - NYC Subway Instructions, now Lee can NOT get lost.
18:45 - Lee offers to show her “cow tipping”

Lee After Dark Ep37 - Amanda Relyea-Voss
Amanda is the Boss… or Like A Boss
But she’s her own boss and as such makes some awesome decisions, from her “Plastic Phobia” to eco friendly clothing lines and homemade breads, soap and pasta.
At a conference she attended she came across a book … The 28 Day Challenge to be Alcohol free. She took it, read it, did it and is now over 60 days and not going back. All for health reasons. She thinks better, and feels her life improved.
This “Like A Boss” lady boss believes “nothing happens until you make it happen” and she lives by those words. She runs a successful media company and this podcast with her is illuminating. The world would be a wonderful place with more Amanda’s ...and there most assuredly would be less plastic in the oceans.
1:00 - Plastic phobia… Decided 3 years ago to start making things she was previously purchasing, from bread to soap to pasta… all items wrapped in plastic.
4:00 - has decided to not buy anything, especially clothing, not eco friendly.
7:00 - started tasting plastic in anything she bought wrapped in plastic, which gave this “plastic phobia”.
14:00 - alcohol free challenge for 28 days, now past 60 days… has decided to remain alcohol free. Discussion of benefits of not drinking.
18:20 - nothing changes unless you make it happen…

Lee After Dark Ep46 Nick Ward
How do you turn an antagonist into a friend? Are we a society of people bashing people, doomed to destroy our society and country from within? This is what Gen. Mattis recently stated.
Nick believes our society has reached this point, and an unwillingness to change. Given our politics today, it’s hard to argue. How do we change this? The willingness to accept change, to accept that our beliefs may need to change and can change… is growth this world needs.
Knowing you have this willingness to let go of old beliefs creates a confidence within.
Having experienced this and grown into this way of thinking, I know it enhances confidence. A very interesting story and outlook is provided here by someone who strives to create change for the good in others, and in businesses. If Nick’s way of thinking became evident in society this might be a much better, friendlier place to live. Watch and see for yourself.
Then tell me what you think. Agree? Disagree?
Pitch: works with father in a marketing and sales solution company they own. The goal is to help businesses grow in the world, grow for the good of the world around them. Create a value story for the business.
