The Kevin Miller Podcast

We are back with a king of relationship building and PR...John Ruhlin. John was our guest in show 623 where we talked about the power of giving gifts as a form of love and relationship building. I’ve been busy implementing it in my business and personal life since then. John is a really dynamic guy and a devoted family man, so was really interesting to hear his personal habits for success as we fo...

We hear a clip from Zig Ziglar on the power of words. From it I posted this question on my Facebook page, "When and how is it ok to speak negatively about another person?". Folks, every response was...profound. Seriously. This question was about the best use of Facebook I’ve ever, ever experienced. Tom Ziglar joined me to talk through the comments. You will be...convicted, I very much believe, as...

Let’s talk about gifts. Nope, not your giftings as in talents and abilities, but literal...gifts. But the point is building relationships and standing out. It’s building social capital. It’s loving and caring for other people. John Ruhlin is our guest and he’s on the show because...he wowed me, as he has a sea of other people. Truly. He gifted me beyond the point of just feeling reciprocity, but I...

We are talking about your story and your stage. So I interviewed Pete Vargas in shows 619 the main show, and 620, the Habits show. And I  just couldn’t leave his message alone, about story and stage. So I posted this question on Facebook, “If you were set on a stage before thousands to share something you felt was important, what are some aspects of personal story you think some people could/would...

We are back with the king of stages...Pete Vargas. I’m pretty entranced with him and his message, don’t miss my main interview with him in show 619 on harnessing your story to connect with people, so...you can get their attention and interest in your core message, product or service. On a literal, in person, physical stage and platform, or your online stage. On that note, he has an opportunity you...

We are talking about selling for love. I’ll explain. Two examples. Ever seen a GREAT movie that just wowed you? It made you feel great and you just wanted EVERYONE to experience it and benefit? You told everyone? Second example, imagine you have a loved one who is dying from a rare disease, your beloved spouse or parent, and you divinely meet someone who had the same issue but found an alternative...

We are talking about your story and your stage and we have a master with us...Pete Vargas. First though, you must know that Zig Ziglar came to fame primarily due to just that...his story and many, many stages. His main platform was live speaking events, but he impacted man more through audios and books. But He was a master of his stage. So here’s the deal, we all have a stage with our businesses....

Let’s talk about how you have overcome lacking confidence, being scared and insecure, and you achieved something anyway. In show 615 we talked with Jessica Honegger about this issue, and I just couldn’t leave Jessica’s message on “going scared”, from her book “Imperfect Courage” - Live a life of purpose leaving comfort and going scared. So I posted this question on Facebook,  "What is something yo...

Back with Jessica Honegger to hear her healthy habits for life. We had our main interview with Jessica in show 615. She is founder of Noonday Collection, the largest fair-trade jewelry company in the worldand author of “ IMPERFECT COURAGE: LIVE A LIFE OF PURPOSE BY LEAVING COMFORT AND GOING SCARED”. I really enjoyed talking through her healthy habits and what resonated with me most was her mental...

Resources that help change your self image! Zig Ziglar gives us a fairly serious message on how vital and profound...the picture we have of ourselves is. And the key to our success is changing...improving...elevating that picture. Believing more for ourselves. From this message I posted this question on Facebook, "What has been a primary resource that has helped CHANGE your self image for the bett...

We  tackle the idea of...going scared. If you are waiting to NOT be scared, to not have fear, before proceeding in any direction, we have a gift for you. Go anyway. Because the “no fear” concept is basically a myth. The spoils go to those who have fear and just go forward anyway. Which brings us to our guest, Jessica Honegger who recently launched a book titled, “ IMPERFECT COURAGE: LIVE A LIFE OF...

We are talking about how to hit targets that you can’t see. The answer is...you can’t. Zig gives a short story about how he can teach you to beat a top archer, and of course makes a poignant point. From his message, I asked this question on Facebook: “Will you name a goal you have for yourself in some or all of these areas below, and name the WHY behind it?”1. Physical2. Family3. Mental4. Financia...

The healthy habits of Ben Feder, our guest in show 611. If you’ll remember, Ben was at the top of the corporate ladder and...left it. He took his family to Bali for a year to find themselves. Now he’s back, and back on top of the corporate ladder, but doing it differently. His habits won’t sound like your normal C suite executive, as they include yoga, meditation, tithing and compassion as leaders...

What you do to get your spirits up? The question comes from a Zig Ziglar story of a seminar he did, where they had a doctor take blood from participants before and after his two hour talk. The results after showed a big increase in endorphins and dopamine. Now the point wasn't simply HIS talks, but what positive-input does to our physical bodies. I play the two minute story from Zig, and then I po...

Talking about...quitting. Quitting In order to really get started. We go on a journey with a guy who did just that. Ben Feder climbed the corporate ladder to a big career, big income and in many ways, big success. But it had a cost...his family, relationships, health...the normal stuff we reference a lot but few people do anything about it. Ben  was CEO of Take Two interactive, the publisher of th...

We ask a big question..."What do you want people to think of when they hear your name?" The question came from  show 607 with Lisa Grimes, in the section where we discussed creating your personal brand.  I was so enamored with the question, I decided to use it for this weekly facebook question, and asked Lisa to come back and talk through the comments with me. But I took the question further and s...

The habits of Lisa Grimes, my guest in show 607. Lisa has a new book she co-authored with Paula Brown Stafford titled…”Remember Who You Are: Achieve Success. Create Balance. Experience Fulfillment. As a refresher, Lisa’s focus is living life meaningfully and on purpose, and being connected to other people. She’s spent 33 years in corporate America with roles in management, sales and business devel...

We look at the concept of how we stay up and positive instead of low and negative.  Zig Ziglar gives us a short message, telling us of how often people told him, “Zig, I was feeling so down, I was so low, then I read your books or listened to your messages again and got back up!” While that is great, Zig asks, “Wouldn't it be better to be continually working to stay up and not get so low to begin...

In this show we are talking about you. And charging you with remembering, who...you...are. And if you don’t know, figuring it out. My guest is Lisa Grimes and the title of the book she coauthored with Paula Brown Stafford is...Remember Who You Are: Achieve Success. Create Balance. Experience Fulfillment. Lisa and Paula co-authored the book and jointy run a consulting firm called Habergeon which yo...

We look at a dramatic exercise...writing your eulogy. Which in essence is...not merely writing out a goal or goals, but the goal you have for your life! That...is daunting, as you’ll hear. So I got the idea from Jesse Cole, who was my guest in show 603. Jesse is the author of “Find Your Yellow Tux” and the guy who is reinventing baseball. But most importantly, he is giving joy to so, so many peopl...

We are back with the yellow tux man himself, Jesse Cole, who keeps his baseball team and stadium sold out over a year out and is out to change the face of baseball. How? By not making it about baseball, but about entertainment, experience, relationships and memories. Our main interview with him was in show #603 on how to stand out and be different...and how placing your relationships first...are s...

We have an important question for you to consider in regards to...what do you most need now to help your personal progress? we listen to a clip from Zig Ziglar on having a positive mental attitude. And he brings up the issue of increasing performance...regardless of increasing knowledge. Which begged a great question that I posted on Facebook, "For your current, personal progress, do you feel you...

You are about to get convicted on the need to...stand out from the crowd. There are very few things where you can honestly say you are the best. But you can always find a way to be different. You must. So I have a treat for you. A guy who did it in an amazing way...with a low level baseball team. It’s a movie worthy story. I attended Social Media Marketing World in San Diego in early 2018 and saw...

Zig Ziglar asks a question that is gigantic, “What makes a person successful?” His message is from on stage and he actually asks a live audience and lists down their responses. And from it of course, makes a dramatic point. You’ll have to listen to the show to find out what it is! But from the message I posted on Facebook, this question., “Where did you learn about…character? Morality? Ethics? The...

Back with Chalene Johnson, our guest from show 599. This time we walk through her healthy habits in the 7 spokes of The Ziglar Wheel of Life. Chalene is one of the top influencers in the health and wellness arena and holds the Guiness Book of World Records...record, for starring in the most fitness videos of anyone on planet earth.
