The Jeff Crilley Show

Texas has no shortage of churches and ministries, but every once in a while I meet leaders whose story truly stops me in my tracks. On this episode of The Jeff Crilley Show, I sit down with Brandy and Joachim Rangel, the husband and wife team behind Brandy Rangel Ministries in Seguin, Texas. Brandy’s journey is nothing short of remarkable. As a child, she was diagnosed with rheumatic fever and tol...

One of the biggest mistakes people make in retirement planning is treating Social Security like a guessing game. On this episode of The Jeff Crilley Show, Jeff sits down with Matt Maresch of Ashbury Boutique Wealth Management to talk about why the decision of when to take Social Security should be built around a personalized income and expense plan, not generic advice from a neighbor or a headline...

What if a $25 gift could lead to a $9 million deal? In today’s competitive sales environment, standing out isn’t optional: it’s essential.  On this episode of The Jeff Crilley Show, Jeff sits down with Raema Mauriello, founder of Gifty Gal, U.S. Navy veteran, author, and corporate gifting strategist.  Known as the “Queen of Gifting,” Raema helps businesses build authentic relationships through tho...

In this episode, we explore how mindset training and fashion intersect to create true transformation.  Jeff Crilley sits down with Neetu Rishi, CEO and founder of The Success Door, along with designer and former model Neha Goel. Neetu is an entrepreneur, corporate trainer, motivational speaker, personality development coach, mentor...

I was born in 1963, so my memories of the first moon landing are a little blurry but I do remember my parents gathering the family around the television as we watched history unfold. The legendary Walter Cronkite narrated the moment when humanity first walked on the moon. For many people, the golden age of space exploration was the 1960s and ’70s. But today, it feels like that excitement is back i...

I’m a homeowner in West Plano, but I’ve got to be honest—my wife is the one who’s always on the lookout. She’s constantly scanning the yard and the house for signs of critters or anything that doesn’t belong. And when she spots something, she makes sure I get the right people out there to take care of it. Joining me in the studio today is Nic deVoogd, the owner of BK Pest Control.

Dr. Randolph B. Schiffer joins me in the studio to talk about his fascinating new book, Bedtime Stories That Will Terrify Children. Having written a book myself years ago, I know how much the success of a book depends on the details—especially the title, the artwork, and that eye-catching cover that makes people pick it up. In this conversation, we dive into the creative process behind the book an...

On this episode of The Jeff Crilley Show, Jeff sits down with Chris Mitchell, Owner of Mitchell Stores, to explore how a single menswear shop founded in 1958 grew into the largest family-owned luxury retailer in the country. Mitchell shares the remarkable story of his grandfather, who left a career in advertising to open a store in Westport, Connecticut—with just three suits and a pot of coffee. N...

All of us face setbacks in life. The real question is how you choose to see them. A setback can send you into a downward spiral… or it can become the very thing that changes your life for the better. My next guest believes some of life’s hardest moments are actually heaven sent. Ann LeMaster is the author of Heaven Scent, and she’s here to share the powerful story behind that message. ✨

So many women spend their lives pouring into everyone else. They’re moms, wives, professionals—wearing a dozen different hats every single day. But somewhere along the way, they lose sight of themselves and forget to put their own oxygen mask on first. My next guest knows that journey firsthand. Amey Stark-Foust is an author with a powerful story about rediscovering your identity, reclaiming your...

We’re all born with a perfect blueprint. As a man of faith, I believe every baby enters the world exactly as God intended—whole and full of potential. But life happens. Maybe you were bullied as a child, grew up in a difficult home, or experienced painful losses like divorce or the death of someone you love. Over time, those wounds can take us far from who we were created to be. The good news? Tha...

I’ve never considered myself an athlete — sure, I ran a little cross-country and track in high school, but I was terrible. So I have huge admiration for people who perform at a high level. It’s one thing to have the physical ability to make the shot or sink the putt… but it’s another thing entirely to have the mental game to back it up. At the elite level, most people would agree it’s 99% mental....

What you eat can truly change how you feel. From fast food loaded with salt and fat to the world-famous Mediterranean diet, our nutrition choices directly affect our mood, energy, and overall mental well-being. And with so many Americans still dealing with post-Covid stress, anxiety, and economic pressure, this conversation couldn’t be more important. Today’s guest, Amanda Ashcroft — nutritionist,...

We’ve all heard the phrase “born entrepreneur” — and it couldn’t be more fitting for my next guest. Jennifer Tran seems like she started her very first business from her baby carriage. Today, she’s the Managing Partner at Opsist.

For millions of Americans, it probably felt like AI suddenly appeared when ChatGPT hit the scene. But the truth is, artificial intelligence has been evolving quietly for decades. My next guest has been working in AI long before it was trendy. Dan Sinawat is in the studio — he was into AI before it was cool.

I first met my next guest back in the 90s when I was a reporter at Channel 4. That’s when I crossed paths with the incredible Dr. Freddy Haynes, Senior Pastor of Friendship-West Baptist Church. I remember thinking at the time, this is the next Martin Luther King Jr.. Since then, he has led his congregation with immense impact and built a remarkable legacy in the pulpit. And now, he’s taking that l...

We’ve hit March which means a whole lot of those New Year’s fitness resolutions have already fallen off. You know how it goes: the gym is packed on January 1st, and by February… it’s a ghost town. No wait for a treadmill, no line for the weights. But today, we’re talking about something different—because joining me are two powerhouses: world-renowned champ and Hall of Fame boxer Roy Jones Jr., and...

AI has technically been around for nearly 70 years, but the world didn’t fully wake up to its power until tools like ChatGPT hit the scene. Today, we’re diving into the rise of artificial intelligence and the real-world benefits it’s bringing to businesses and everyday life. Joining me are Tim Mata and Tori Begg, the co-founders of Mind and Machine DFW.

I’ve always admired people who discover their calling early in life—and my next guest didn’t just find hers, she ran with it at just 11 years old. Dr. Leslie Griffin is in the studio today, and she’s the dynamic founder and CEO of Marriage Champs, a powerhouse brand transforming relationships everywhere.

I know many friends and clients in the legal world, and they all say the same thing: law school doesn’t teach you marketing, and it definitely doesn’t teach you how to run a firm. It teaches you how to handle a case—nothing more. So when attorneys find themselves lost in the business and branding side of their practice, they turn to my next guest. Glennie Green is in the studio today, the dynamic...

We live in a society that values youth and energy. That's why the plastic surgery industry has so many clients, and that's why so many young people can't even imagine getting old, not even seeing a wrinkle. We've got 16 year olds doing Botox. So the topic today is forever young, and I can't think of a better guest to have in the studio than Tommy Brown, who is a celebrity wellness expert, and his...

I have the privilege of welcoming Debbie Sardone back to the show. She’s an internationally recognized expert in the cleaning business industry, and we’ve been friends for more than 20 years. Debbie is a dear friend, and she’s here today to share the incredible growth of her company, Cleaning Business Fundamentals, which she founded.

I’m so excited to have Toni Caruso here in the studio—she’s a speaker, a trainer, an event producer, and a dear friend.

Leadership in America isn’t defined by a title. It’s defined by trust. To lead, you need people who believe in you and belief is built on influence. But influence doesn’t exist without credibility. It’s the foundation of every strong team, every loyal employee, and every lasting legacy. That’s why I’m excited to welcome back Jeff Civillico to the studio. A Hall of Fame speaker, Las Vegas headliner...

Today we’re diving into the world of ATMs — something most of us rarely think about. You swipe your card, grab some cash, and move on. But behind that simple moment is a massive global industry. Joining me in studio are two of its leaders: Nancy Daniels, COO of Hyosung Americas, and Lonnie Talbot, CEO of ATMIA, the international association for the ATM industry and its conferences.
