Spartan philosophy, built in the black-ops lab of business: https://www.findingpeak.com In this episode, Ryan sits down with Joseph Shalaby, a man who embodies the immigrant's edge. They dissect the uncomfortable truth: the drive that gets you to the top is often extinguished by the comfort you create. This isn't about motivation; it's about the systems that build relentless operators. Most leaders believe success is about providing opportunity. They're wrong. It's about manufacturing hunger. Joseph reveals the playbook for instilling grit, mastering negotiation as a core life skill, and why your personal brand is your only defense against AI-driven extinction. Inside, you will learn: The Immigrant's Edge : Why scarcity is a more powerful teacher than any MBA. Engineering Hunger : Tactical advice for raising children who dominate, not coast. Negotiation is Everything : The framework for winning at the deal table and the dinner table. The End of the Wage Earner : Why a side hustle is no longer a choice, but a necessity for survival. Personal Brand or Extinction : The non-negotiable mandate for leaders in the age of AI.

Become the FEARLESS entrepreneur you dream about: https://www.findingpeak.com Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/6HogwYeVQfo They’re lying to you. Your doctor, the health gurus, the whole system. They tell you feeling like crap is just “part of getting older.” That the brain fog, the belly fat, the rock-bottom energy, and the non-existent sex drive is just your “new normal” now that you’re 40. It’s a lie. And it’s a lie that’s not only killing your quality of life—it’s killing your business. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Tracy Gapin, a former surgeon turned men’s health optimization expert who is pulling back the curtain on the catastrophic decline in men’s health. We expose the truth about why testosterone levels have plummeted 45% in the last 20 years, why your GP’s advice is dangerously outdated, and how you can stop the slow decay and reclaim the energy, focus, and drive you thought you’d lost forever. This isn’t about a few diet tips or another useless supplement. This is the blueprint to rebuilding yourself from the cellular level up. Stop accepting mediocrity. Your peak is still ahead of you.

Join our community of unreasonable leaders achieving undeniable success : https://www.findingpeak.com Watch on YouTube: https://link.ryanhanley.com/youtube It’s a common myth that businesses die because of their competition. The truth is, they die because they fail to understand what their customers actually expect. In this episode, I break down a framework I’ve used to help hundreds of leaders and build my own multiple seven-figure business: The Customer Expectation Triangle of Death. We’ll explore the three distinct ages of business—Analog, Digital, and the Age of AI—and how customer expectations have evolved through each. You’ll learn why simply having a quality product at a good price is no longer enough, and what you need to focus on right now to separate your business from the noise and achieve escape velocity. This isn’t just theory. This is the practical, no-BS framework for building a business that lasts. Key Takeaways: The Real Reason Businesses Fail: It’s not your competition; it’s your failure to understand evolving customer expectations. The Three Ages of Business: Learn the critical shifts between the Analog Age (pre-2000), the Digital Age (2000-2020), and the Age of AI (2020-present). The Triangle Framework: Deconstruct the three core pillars of customer expectation: Quality, Price, and Speed/Ease of Delivery. The Rise of Experience: Understand why the Digital Age made a seamless customer experience the absolute baseline for any viable business. Winning in the Age of AI: Discover why "Signal"—trust, connection, and authenticity—is the ultimate differentiator in today's market. The Inside-Out Diagnostic: Get a simple, actionable tool to diagnose and fix core issues with customer retention, engagement, and acquisition. -- Recommended Tools for Growth OpusClip: #1 AI video clipping and editing tool: https://link.ryanhanley.com/opus Riverside: HD Podcast & Video Software | Free Recording & Editing: https://link.ryanhanley.com/riverside WhisperFlow: Never waste time typing on your keyboard again: https://link.ryanhanley.com/whisperflow CaptionsApp: One app for all your social media video creation: https://link.ryanhanley.com/captionsapp GoHighLevel: It's time to take your business workflow to the Next Level: https://link.ryanhanley.com/gohighlevel Perspective.co: The #1 funnel builder for lead generation: https://link.ryanhanley.com/perspective -- Episodes You Might Enjoy: From $2 Million Loss to World-Class Entrepreneur: https://lnk.to/delk From One Man Shop to $200M in Revenue: https://lnk.to/tommymello Is Psilocybin the Gateway to Self-Mastery? https://lnk.to/80upZ9 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Join our community of unreasonable leaders achieving undeniable success : https://www.findingpeak.com Watch on YouTube : https://link.ryanhanley.com/youtube In a world of constant uncertainty, leaders are falling into the "action trap"—an endless cycle of activity that feels like progress but delivers little. Dr. Jessica Kriegel, a renowned leadership expert and author, joins us to reveal a counterintuitive solution: surrender. Connect with Dr Jessica Kriegel Website: https://www.jessicakriegel.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessicakriegel/ Surrender to Lead book: https://amzn.to/4att9OR In this episode of Finding Peak, Jessica dismantles the myth that control equals success. She introduces a powerful framework for leadership based on the Serenity Prayer: control the controllables and let go of the rest. We dive deep into the psychology of belief, the power of storytelling over data, and why your team's resistance to change is a belief problem, not a technology problem. Jessica shares her bold predictions for the future of work, including the rise of the first AI CEO by 2026 and how AI clones will revolutionize leadership. If you're a leader feeling the pressure of the K-shaped economy, political instability, and technological disruption, this episode provides a radical yet practical roadmap to not just survive, but thrive. -- Recommended Tools for Growth OpusClip: #1 AI video clipping and editing tool: https://link.ryanhanley.com/opus Riverside: HD Podcast & Video Software | Free Recording & Editing: https://link.ryanhanley.com/riverside WhisperFlow: Never waste time typing on your keyboard again: https://link.ryanhanley.com/whisperflow CaptionsApp: One app for all your social media video creation: https://link.ryanhanley.com/captionsapp GoHighLevel: It's time to take your business workflow to the Next Level: https://link.ryanhanley.com/gohighlevel Perspective.co: The #1 funnel builder for lead generation: https://link.ryanhanley.com/perspective -- Episodes You Might Enjoy: From $2 Million Loss to World-Class Entrepreneur: https://lnk.to/delk From One Man Shop to $200M in Revenue: https://lnk.to/tommymello Is Psilocybin the Gateway to Self-Mastery? https://lnk.to/80upZ9 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Join our community of unreasonable leaders creating undeniable success: https://www.findingpeak.com Watch on YouTube: https://link.ryanhanley.com/youtube Is Gen Z entitled, lazy, and unmanageable? Or is your leadership playbook simply obsolete? In this explosive episode of Finding Peak, Ryan Hanley sits down with renowned leadership expert and author Selena Rezvani to dismantle the myths surrounding the modern workforce. Connect with Selena Rezvani Website: https://www.selenarezvani.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/selenarezvani LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/selenarezvani/ Book: https://amzn.to/48wD6Zp Selena argues that the friction between generations isn't a "Gen Z problem"—it's a leadership crisis. We explore why Gen Z views entrepreneurship as a career insurance policy, why they refuse to make work their entire identity, and why your attempts at control and surveillance are destined to fail. Forget everything you think you know about loyalty and motivation. This conversation provides a new framework for leading in an era of radical transparency and economic uncertainty. You'll learn the difference between "Least Generous" and "Most Generous" interpretations, why vulnerability is a leader's greatest asset, and how to build a culture of co-creation instead of compliance. If you're ready to stop complaining and start leading effectively, this episode is your wake-up call. -- Recommended Tools for Growth OpusClip: #1 AI video clipping and editing tool: https://link.ryanhanley.com/opus Riverside: HD Podcast & Video Software | Free Recording & Editing: https://link.ryanhanley.com/riverside WhisperFlow: Never waste time typing on your keyboard again: https://link.ryanhanley.com/whisperflow CaptionsApp: One app for all your social media video creation: https://link.ryanhanley.com/captionsapp GoHighLevel: It's time to take your business workflow to the Next Level: https://link.ryanhanley.com/gohighlevel Perspective.co: The #1 funnel builder for lead generation: https://link.ryanhanley.com/perspective -- Episodes You Might Enjoy: From $2 Million Loss to World-Class Entrepreneur: https://lnk.to/delk From One Man Shop to $200M in Revenue: https://lnk.to/tommymello Is Psilocybin the Gateway to Self-Mastery? https://lnk.to/80upZ9 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Join our community of fearless leaders in search of unreasonable outcomes... Want to become a FEARLESS entrepreneur and leader? Go here: https://www.findingpeak.com Watch on YouTube: https://link.ryanhanley.com/youtube In this episode of Finding Peak, Ryan Hanley sits down with Mita Mallick, USA Today bestselling author of The Devil Emails at Midnight , to expose the leadership crisis driving the Great Resignation. The conversation cuts through the corporate BS to reveal why employees aren't just leaving for better pay—they're fleeing leaders who demand sacrifice while hoarding wealth and refusing to show basic human decency. Connect with Mita Millick The Devil Emails at Midnight: https://amzn.to/3Wjk2bw LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mita-mallick-2b165822/ Website: https://www.mitamallick.com/ Key Insights: The compensation hypocrisy is killing companies. CEOs making $50-70 million are laying off thousands of employees instead of taking reasonable pay cuts. Mallick and Hanley dissect how this wealth gap destroys trust and drives top talent out the door. When leaders won't sacrifice anything but expect employees to sacrifice everything, loyalty evaporates. Bad bosses are manufactured by broken systems. Mallick reveals the three moments that create toxic leaders: environmental stress (tariffs, economic uncertainty), leadership emulation (new managers copying bad behavior because it's all they know), and personal crises (grief, divorce, illness) that leaders try to compartmentalize but can't. The system creates these monsters, then acts surprised when employees quit. "Healthy vulnerability" vs. "toxic vulnerability" is the line between trust and manipulation. Leaders who admit they don't have all the answers build loyalty. Leaders who weaponize their personal problems to justify abusive behavior destroy teams. Mallick explains how to spot the difference and what to do when your boss crosses that line. Flexibility isn't charity—it's competitive advantage. Hanley shares how he built a powerhouse team by hiring talented mothers other companies threw away because they couldn't punch a time card from 8:30 to 4:30. These women outperformed everyone because they were given autonomy and trust. Meanwhile, rigid leaders are bleeding talent and wondering why. The Great Resignation is a leadership referendum. Employees aren't leaving jobs—they're leaving leaders who treat them like disposable resources while enriching themselves. The data is clear: people will tolerate a lot, but they won't tolerate hypocrisy and disrespect forever. -- Recommended Tools for Growth OpusClip: #1 AI video clipping and editing tool: https://link.ryanhanley.com/opus Riverside: HD Podcast & Video Software | Free Recording & Editing: https://link.ryanhanley.com/riverside WhisperFlow: Never waste time typing on your keyboard again: https://link.ryanhanley.com/whisperflow CaptionsApp: One app for all your social media video creation: https://link.ryanhanley.com/captionsapp GoHighLevel: It's time to take your business workflow to the Next Level: https://link.ryanhanley.com/gohighlevel Perspective.co: The #1 funnel builder for lead generation: https://link.ryanhanley.com/perspective -- Episodes You Might Enjoy: From $2 Million Loss to World-Class Entrepreneur: https://lnk.to/delk From One Man Shop to $200M in Revenue: https://lnk.to/tommymello Is Psilocybin the Gateway to Self-Mastery? https://lnk.to/80upZ9 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Go here: https://www.findingpeak.com Watch on YouTube: https://link.ryanhanley.com/youtube What if the feeling of "unworthiness" that plagues so many high-achievers is actually a lie? A lie we've been conditioned to believe by a society that rewards external validation above all else. My guest this week is Kendra Dahlstrom, a transformational leadership coach who works with top executives to help them lead with authenticity, imperfection, and truth. Connect with Kendra Dahlstrom Website: https://kendradahlstrom.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kendra.dahlstrom/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@theunworthyleaderpodcast After 25 years in the corporate world, Kendra realized she was "branding the lie, not the truth" by focusing on unworthiness. She now helps high-achievers recognize their patterns of chronic success-seeking and find a deeper sense of fulfillment. In this incredibly vulnerable conversation, Kendra and I go deep on: Why so many high-achievers feel like frauds and imposters. The surprising link between high achievement, dopamine, and addiction. How to process past trauma and use it as a source of strength. The one question Kendra asks herself every day to stay grounded: "Will this bring me closer to peace?" Practical tools for breaking free from the cycle of external validation and leading from the heart. This isn't your typical leadership podcast. We get real about the messy, human side of success. If you're ready to stop hiding, embrace your imperfections, and lead with your whole self, this episode is for you.

In this video, I'll show you the exact FIRE framework that ignites influence and the SIGNAL template that turns strategy into execution. 🔥 THE FIRE FRAMEWORK: F - Focus Over Frequency I - Intensity Over Information R - Repetition Over Reach E - Exclusion Over Inclusion THE SIGNAL TEMPLATE: S - Stop (hook that stops scrolling) I - Intrigue (curiosity gap with stakes) G - Give (one actionable insight) N - Navigate (challenge to choose path) A - Anchor (unique signature) L - Link (connect to next content) This isn't just theory - it's backed by science. I'll share the research from Ebbinghaus' Forgetting Curve, the Magna + Roku study, and the Rule of 7 that proves why repetition builds influence. If you're tired of being invisible and ready to build a movement (not just a following), this framework will change everything.

Join our community of fearless leaders in search of unreasonable outcomes... Want to become a FEARLESS entrepreneur and leader? Go here: https://www.findingpeak.com Watch on YouTube: https://link.ryanhanley.com/youtube Back when I was running brand and growth for Agency Nation, I made this mistake on loop. One slow day of traffic? New headlines. A week of soft sales? New ICP. Open rates dip? New platform, new list, new ‘guru’ playbook. It felt like leadership. It was chasing. Every time I overreacted to one outcome , I yanked the team attention off whatever we had been doing and sent them down fresh rabbit hole—new tech, new tactic, new market… rinse, repeat. We never let the system compound. No consistency → no scale. It finally clicked during Elevate 2018: we set the strategy, locked the system, and stopped reacting to every blip. Registrations wobbled, sponsors hesitated—we stayed on plan. The result 827 attendees for an insurance conference with zero CE. Years later, people still tell me that single event changed their careers. That’s what consistency buys you… that chasing never will. Want to become a FEARLESS entrepreneur and leader?

Go here: https://www.findingpeak.com Watch on YouTube: https://link.ryanhanley.com/youtube “Plans are cute—right up ‘til the universe knees you in the junk. Or, as Mike Tyson put it, ‘Everybody’s got a plan… until they get punched in the mouth.’ …so you got punched in the face…What now? Well, first, don’t freak out. 70% of strategic plans fail in execution. That’s according to the Harvard Biz Review. The reason for this is that most ‘leadership advice’ is nostalgia wrapped in a PowerPoint delivered by a consultant who will be long gone when it comes to the actual execution of the plan. How do I know? I’ve spent over two decades building, leading, and selling businesses, most notably scaling Rogue Risk from zero to acquisition in just two years. I’ve run national brands, launched an industry-defining events, and worked as an turnaround CEO for businesses in tech, insurance and fitness. I’ve coached founders, executives, and teams to unlock unreasonable growth by cutting through myths and leading in reality. I don’t teach theory—I’ve lived the chaos, made the calls, and earned the scars. If you're looking for safe, pretty leadership advice, I’m not your guy. If you want the truth and a system that wins in the real world, you’re in the right place. Today, we’re kicking off a 7-part series on my RealityOS leadership operating system. -- Recommended Tools for Growth OpusClip: #1 AI video clipping and editing tool: https://link.ryanhanley.com/opus Riverside: HD Podcast & Video Software | Free Recording & Editing: https://link.ryanhanley.com/riverside WhisperFlow: Never waste time typing on your keyboard again: https://link.ryanhanley.com/whisperflow CaptionsApp: One app for all your social media video creation: https://link.ryanhanley.com/captionsapp GoHighLevel: It's time to take your business workflow to the Next Level: https://link.ryanhanley.com/gohighlevel Perspective.co: The #1 funnel builder for lead generation: https://link.ryanhanley.com/perspective -- Episodes You Might Enjoy: From $2 Million Loss to World-Class Entrepreneur: https://lnk.to/delk From One Man Shop to $200M in Revenue: https://lnk.to/tommymello Is Psilocybin the Gateway to Self-Mastery? https://lnk.to/80upZ9 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

You may have noticed something different. We’ve rebranded the podcast… For over 350 episodes, this podcast was called The Ryan Hanley Show. Solid… I mean, my name is Ryan Hanley. But…it’s never felt right… Or maybe a better way to put it is that the name has always felt like it missed capturing the real mission of this podcast. I want to help ambitious, driven, unreasonable human beings find peak performance in their life and business. Sometimes that takes the form of leadership, psychology, or fitness… …and here’s the thing, the FINDING part is important. We’re never going to reach our peak self… none of us…but then that’s not the point. It’s the effort, the battle, the struggle, the climb…it’s the feeling you get wading through a sea of bullshit and obstacles, everyone questioning you, doubting you… It’s the feeling of knowing you’re on the path…getting better every day… I’ve been building the Finding Peak brand — the newsletter, the coaching, the speaking — for a while now.

What if I told you that your biggest breakthrough is waiting on the other side of your biggest breakdown? What if the very thing you're afraid of—losing control, facing uncertainty, getting knocked down—is exactly what you need to discover who you're really meant to be? Join our community of fearless leaders in search of unreasonable outcomes... Want to become a FEARLESS entrepreneur and leader? Go here: https://www.findingpeak.com Watch on YouTube: https://link.ryanhanley.com/youtube Here's the truth most business leaders won't tell you: not fitting into corporate culture… even getting fired might be the best thing that ever happens to your career. I know this because it wasn't until I was fired from three executive positions that I realized each termination was a gift I didn't know I needed. While most people think success is about climbing the corporate ladder, playing the game, and getting the flashy job title is what success looks like… But if you’re here, I’m assuming that’s not you. My name is Ryan Hanley, most people just call me Hanley, and after getting fired for the third time, I finally realized something: God didn't create me to work for someone else. He created me to be a builder, a leader, and an entrepreneur. That's when I founded Rogue Risk, a digital insurance agency, built it from nothing, and sold it for seven figures in less than four years. Over the last 10 years I've delivered over 400 keynotes to leaders around the world, growth this podcast to consistently rank among the top in the world and coached 100’s of founder and leaders through my RealityOS framework—a leadership philosophy that helps entrepreneurs break through the three biggest barriers killing their growth: undisciplined focus, uninspired company culture and a lack outcome driven systems. This podcast is for unreasonable people seeking unreasonable outcomes. If you're tired of playing small, if you're frustrated with where you are versus where you know you should be, if you're ready to stop making excuses and start making moves—then you're in the right place. Here's what I know after sitting in every seat at the table—founder, operator, executive, speaker, investor, coach: People don't follow logos. They follow leaders. Leaders who do the work. Who tell the truth. Who show the hell up when everyone else is making excuses. That's what we do here. We have real conversations with real people who've achieved unreasonable outcomes in their life and business. No fluff. No theory. Just the raw, unfiltered strategies, mindsets, and habits that separate peak performers from everyone else. Whether you're revenue growth has stalled, you're struggling with leadership, or simply know you're capable of more but can't figure out how to get there—this show will give you the clarity, tools, and inspiration you need to break through to the next level. So subscribe to The Ryan Hanley Show wherever you listen to podcasts (we’re on YouTube if you like watch…you know what I mean…) and if you want to go deeper down the rabbit hole, visit findingpeak.com to join our community of leaders who refuse to accept ordinary results.

Today’s episode dives into the Law of Vibration and how Jason Shurka’s life proves that alignment creates momentum.

Ever feel like you know exactly what to do, you have the resources, but you're still stuck in the mud? Ryan Hanley dives into this frustrating experience, revealing that it's not about a lack of intelligence or motivation—it's about being trapped in hidden identity loops. Ryan explains that the key to unlocking yourself isn't more knowledge, but a shift in identity. Action that aligns with the person you want to become creates the evidence needed to build belief and break free from those limiting loops. Drawing from his personal journey with ADHD, Ryan shares how adopting the identity of an organized person transformed his challenges. In this episode, you'll learn: Why feeling stuck isn't a sign of failure. The powerful impact of unrecognized identity loops. The counterintuitive secret to breaking free: action before belief.

The "status trap," an invisible prison of societal expectations that diverts people from their true paths. Today, Ryan Hanley shares the core message of his TEDx talk titled "Stop Living a Life You Didn't Choose" and how breaking free of this cycle brought him into a life full of passion and purpose. He introduces three principles to overcome the status trap: viewing fear as a prompt for action, granting oneself permission to deviate from others' expectations, and understanding that focus dictates personal growth. Ryan emphasizes that while gaining status isn't inherently bad, it's vital to ensure it doesn't compromise personal integrity or harm key aspects of one's life. Takeaways: • Recognize and escape the 'status trap' that holds you back • Embrace your unique path • Cultivate focus on your craft and aspirations Sound Bites: • "We make so many bad decisions when we're operating from a position of status." • "Every day, millions of people wake up, go to jobs they hate, pursue goals they didn't choose, all because they're caught in what I call the status trap, the invisible prison of social expectations." • "Prioritizing status is the path of comfort.

Ryan Hanley is a speaker, entrepreneur, and host of a podcast dedicated to helping ambitious individuals defy ordinary and achieve extraordinary success. Ryan discusses how his business was struggling due to high costs and inefficient practices. He introduces three first principle strategies that transformed his business without the need to cut staff. The first strategy is zero-based budgeting, inspired by Elon Musk, which involves justifying every expense from scratch. The second principle is the no meeting rule, which drastically reduces unnecessary meetings, improving productivity by giving the team more time to focus on actual work. Finally, Hanley emphasizes sales efficiency by focusing on improving the closing rate of current leads rather than acquiring new ones, which significantly increases profits and team morale. Takeaways: • Adopt zero-based Budgeting • Implement the no-meeting rule: • Prioritize sales efficiency Sound Bites: • "We canceled every single meeting and only added back the ones that were absolutely necessary." • "Shorter meetings lead to more productivity and efficiency because you're forced to get to the point." • "Not only were we making more money, but our customer feedback scores went through the roof." 📌 𝗙𝗢𝗟𝗟𝗢𝗪 𝗠𝗘 𝗢𝗡: Website: https://www.go.ryanhanley.com/ Course Page: https://www.masteroftheclose.com/ Apple: https://www.podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-ryan-hanley-show/id1480262657 Spotify: https://www.open.spotify.com/show/5AZFuTiQsgS9hMQDDdtlOr?si=98432b7806534486 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ryan_hanley -- Recommended Tools for Growth OpusClip: #1 AI video clipping and editing tool: https://link.ryanhanley.com/opus Riverside: HD Podcast & Video Software | Free Recording & Editing: https://link.ryanhanley.com/riverside WhisperFlow: Never waste time typing on your keyboard again: https://link.ryanhanley.com/whisperflow CaptionsApp: One app for all your social media video creation: https://link.ryanhanley.com/captionsapp GoHighLevel: It's time to take your business workflow to the Next Level: https://link.ryanhanley.com/gohighlevel Perspective.co: The #1 funnel builder for lead generation: https://link.ryanhanley.com/perspective -- Episodes You Might Enjoy: From $2 Million Loss to World-Class Entrepreneur: https://lnk.to/delk From One Man Shop to $200M in Revenue: https://lnk.to/tommymello Is Psilocybin the Gateway to Self-Mastery? https://lnk.to/80upZ9 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Most people fail their goals not because they lack effort, but because they’re stuck using outdated strategies. In this episode, I break down a bold, no-BS approach to goal-setting that focuses on fewer, bigger goals, unstoppable habits, and the mindset shifts you need to dominate 2025 like a savage. Links and Resources Mentioned: 10x Is Easier Than 2x by Dr. Benjamin Hardy: https://amzn.to/4j41HJq Atomic Habits by James Clear: https://amzn.to/4210jkO Master of the Close: https://masteroftheclose.com The Civilized Savage: https://civilizedsavagebook.com What You’ll Learn in This Episode: Why traditional goal-setting advice (like SMART goals) often falls flat—and what to do instead. The power of prioritizing fewer, bigger goals to create clarity and focus. How to detach from outcomes and commit to non-negotiable habits that drive success. Why tracking your habits, not just your outcomes, is the key to building momentum. How to apply the concepts of The Power of One More and Stoic philosophy to take relentless action. A practical, 5-step system for setting goals you’ll actually hit. Key Quotes from the Episode: “The reasonable man adapts himself to the world. The unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.” — George Bernard Shaw “You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems.” — James Clear “Change happens when the pain of staying the same is greater than the pain of change.” — Tony Robbins What’s your “one more” today?

As we stand on the brink of 2025, many of us feel a mix of excitement and trepidation. Fear often comes disguised as doubt, anxiety, or hesitation—but what if it’s actually a signal that we’re on the verge of something meaningful? Join 11,000+ leaders: https://go.ryanhanley.com Civilized Savage Book: https://civilizedsavagebook.com In this episode, we explore how fear can be a catalyst for growth rather than a roadblock. Drawing on personal experiences, thought leader insights, Stoic philosophy, and Biblical wisdom, we’ll unpack actionable strategies to help you face your fears and make 2025 your most courageous year yet. What You’ll Learn in This Episode Why fear is not a stop sign but a “vector for action” that signals personal growth. The three roots of fear: fear of failure, fear of judgment, and fear of success. How thought leaders like David Goggins, Brene Brown, and Jordan Peterson approach overcoming fear. Powerful perspectives from Stoicism and the Bible on managing fear and finding courage. Practical, actionable strategies to name, confront, and channel your fears into transformative action. Key Takeaways Fear Means Growth : If you’re feeling scared, it’s because you’re pushing yourself into new and challenging territory. Quote: “Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear—not absence of fear.” – Mark Twain The Three Roots of Fear : Fear of failure : Many avoid big goals because they’re afraid to fail, but as Jordan Peterson reminds us, “You’re going to pay a price for every bloody thing you do and everything you don’t do. You don’t get to choose not to pay a price.” Fear of judgment : Eric Weinstein notes, “The problem isn’t taking risks, it’s the fear of people pointing out when you fail.” Fear of success : Success often brings responsibility, status changes, and challenges, which can create resistance. Powerful Strategies : Name your fear and make it tangible. Write down both the consequences of overcoming it and the cost of not acting. Take small, incremental actions to face what scares you most. Use gratitude to combat fear by focusing on what you have instead of what you lack. Seek accountability and encouragement from trusted peers. Quotes from the Episode “What you are afraid to do is a clear indication of the next thing you need to do.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson “Fear is a reaction. Courage is a decision.” – Winston Churchill “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” – 2 Timothy 1:7 “You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.” – Marcus Aurelius Action Steps Identify one fear you’ve been avoiding and commit to taking a small action to confront it this week. Share your fear with an accountability partner and discuss the steps you’ll take to move forward. Reflect on what your life could look like if you overcome your fear—and what it will look like if you don’t. Let’s Connect If this episode resonated with you, share it with a friend who might need encouragement to face their fears. Be sure to subscribe so you don’t miss future episodes packed with actionable insights and inspiration. Final Thought Fear will always be a part of life—but it doesn’t have to be your master. Use it as a signal, a guide, and a motivator to push beyond your limits and into a year of growth, courage, and purpose.

With Donald Trump and Kamala Harris at the forefront, I decided to cast my vote based on a personal commitment to minimizing military interventions. This choice may spark curiosity or critique, yet it serves as a springboard for a broader conversation about fostering unity and respecting diverse beliefs. As I navigate the turbulent waters of personal beliefs, I've realized the critical role of core values in maintaining one's integrity. Honesty, particularly the kind that's brutally truthful with oneself, has been my guiding light. Yet, I've wrestled with the internal negotiations that often lead to compromise and unmet commitments. This episode candidly shares my journey, urging you to identify your own bedrock values, even if they're just a few. These values, after all, shape the indestructible parts of who we are, providing resilience in times of uncertainty. Finally, we venture into the importance of recognizing nuance in the complex web of today's issues, using examples like nuclear energy and climate activism to illustrate why understanding the intricacies matters. By grounding ourselves in our core beliefs, we can navigate diverse opinions with confidence and empathy. As I wrap up this solo endeavor, your feedback becomes invaluable; this podcast is a shared journey, and your thoughts on the solo format are essential. Together, let's continue to engage in meaningful, constructive dialogue that celebrates our differences while forging connections. -- Recommended Tools for Growth OpusClip: #1 AI video clipping and editing tool: https://link.ryanhanley.com/opus Riverside: HD Podcast & Video Software | Free Recording & Editing: https://link.ryanhanley.com/riverside WhisperFlow: Never waste time typing on your keyboard again: https://link.ryanhanley.com/whisperflow CaptionsApp: One app for all your social media video creation: https://link.ryanhanley.com/captionsapp GoHighLevel: It's time to take your business workflow to the Next Level: https://link.ryanhanley.com/gohighlevel Perspective.co: The #1 funnel builder for lead generation: https://link.ryanhanley.com/perspective -- Episodes You Might Enjoy: From $2 Million Loss to World-Class Entrepreneur: https://lnk.to/delk From One Man Shop to $200M in Revenue: https://lnk.to/tommymello Is Psilocybin the Gateway to Self-Mastery? https://lnk.to/80upZ9 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Drawing from Michael Singer's "The Untethered Soul," I discuss the significance of observing the mind rather than identifying with it. I also integrate wisdom from stoic philosopher Marcus Aurelius, highlighting the importance of not allowing feelings to control our actions. Whether it's my life's narrative or the insights gained from coaching others, these truths are the bedrock of thriving in any personal or professional capacity. In another thought-provoking segment, I tackle the concept of resistance and the role discipline plays in personal growth. Hear about practical techniques like journaling, the 'two-day rule', mentorship, and counseling that can help maintain accountability and foster self-improvement. Inspired by thought leaders like Steven Pressfield and James Clear, the conversation turns to the relentless pursuit of excellence through mental toughness programs and the realization that our fate rests firmly in our own hands. I also reflect on the empowering words of Maya Angelou, reinforcing the message that the most important validation comes from within.

Became a Master of the Close: https://masteroftheclose.com 7 Challenges Independent Insurance Agents MUST Conquer in 2024 ✅ Join the Insurance Growth Masterclass: https://masterclass.insure ✅ For daily insights and ideas on peak performance: https://www.instagram.com/ryan_hanley/ ✅ Hire me to speak at your next event: https://ryanhanley.com/speaking Join me as I unpack the seven pressing challenges facing independent insurance agents in our latest podcast discussion. As we navigate the hard market, securing carrier appointments, and the effects of industry consolidation, especially on smaller agencies, the road ahead is anything but smooth. I share personal insights on these hurdles and how the volatile political climate of an election year could further complicate our landscape. Plus, we can't ignore the seismic shifts brought on by remote workforces and artificial intelligence, or the insufficient support from technology partners amidst our growing reliance on InsurTech. These elements are all pivotal in our strategic approach to future-proofing our agencies. Listen in as I tackle the intricate balance of staying informed on societal and political fronts without allowing them to hijack our focus from professional responsibilities. I discuss the strategies for managing these distractions in the workplace and present the case for embracing remote work, highlighting the immense value of expanding our talent pool beyond geographical boundaries. Virtual assistants and the untapped potential of underrepresented demographics, such as single parents, could be the game-changers we need. Flexible working conditions might just be the key to unlocking new levels of productivity and commitment. To cap it off, we'll reflect on my journey from agency trenches to consultancy peaks, and how I'm leveraging that experience to guide others through the insurance growth masterclass. I touch on the importance of discerning trust within the industry, inspired by my conversation with the esteemed Billy Williams, and how to filter through the multitude of voices to find those that truly aid in business growth. Get ready to equip yourself with the knowledge and tactics that could very well be the linchpin for your agency's robust, sustainable growth. Learn more about your ad choices.

Became a Master of the Close: https://masteroftheclose.com In this engaging discussion, we unpack the significance of individual citizenship and the fundamental values that make one a quality human and a contributing member of society. Inspired by Teddy Roosevelt's iconic speech, 'The Citizen in a Republic,' we emphasize the need for these ideals in our current society, where they seem to have been replaced by more materialistic values. Further into the discussion, we highlight skill, leisure, and wealth privileges and the responsibility to use them for the greater good. In an age of cynicism, we stress the importance of the average citizen in achieving greatness, challenging those who criticize without putting in the effort. We wrap up this chapter by discussing the need to play one's part in life's struggle and not hide behind contempt for others' achievements. Toward the end of our discussion, we shed light on the significance of virtue and personal agency and the need for guiding intelligence in various human activities. We share our belief that admiration should be directed at the deed and not the reward and that after achieving tangible material success, there must be a corresponding benefit to the nation.

And in terms of you know, we had some nice growth from premiums on the rise, but in terms of like new business, it was awful compared to the years prior. And I'm like what's going on? So, it feels like we're back on track this year, a little bit. But it's like a little bit of scariness out there.

(56:30) Key Quotes: “Our system is designed to simply help producers get loss runs faster, for a very cost-effective price point.” - Brenden Corr “Our goal was to automate not only those emails that are going out but then also to allow agencies to be far more proactive, and schedule them across, you know, a year or a couple of years out. So kind of two solution points there.” - Brenden Corr “The advantage of that is not only is it automating the process from an agency side with trackability, and in our program, but then it gives your prospect a one-click button that allows them to access their loss runs directly from the carriers.” - Brenden Corr Resources Mentioned: Brenden Corr LinkedIn Loss Run Pro Reach out to Ryan Hanley Rogue Risk Finding Peak Learn more about your ad choices.

Derek Hayden is a Certified Risk Architect at Dansig Insurance Risk Advisors and winner of The Protege Reality Show. I believe Derek is the epitome of a "Human-Optimized" agent. This is a tremendous conversation with a tremendous independent agent. Don't miss this episode... Episode Highlights: Derek discusses the hard market, and how they prepared for it. (7:13) Derek mentions that clients are scared to make the first move, but it is now getting to the point where they are willing to open the box and see what can be done. (13:19) Ryan mentions that one mistake they made was spreading their premium out too wide, and if he could do it again, he probably would take half the carrier appointments and just dial in writing business with those carriers. (22:27) Derek expresses frustration at the lack of give and take in the insurance industry and how carriers can just drop accounts after agents put in a lot of effort to make them less risky. (27:20) Derek shares his own experience of feeling like a mere pawn in the industry despite his 11 years of experience. (35:20) Derek shares that he uses video proposals for about 80% of his small commercial and personal lines proposals, and for larger accounts, he prefers to go in person. (42:03) Derek shares how he sets up his video proposal for his clients. (49:34) Derek suggests that smaller hometown insurance agents should develop a unique value proposition that can improve clients' business or income, and take advantage of free tools offered by carrier reps to attract and retain accounts. (54:51) Key Quotes: “On those key accounts, those bigger prospects, I do the video submission. I feel like that changes. It's more like, they feel like more a part of the account versus just reading something on paper. They feel like they can see the building through video, see what we're doing.” - Derek Hayden “All you got to do is develop a value proposition that's unique compared to any other agent, whether it's a captive or independent agent, develop a value proposition that you can consistently deliver, and follow through on.” - Derek Hayden Resources Mentioned: Derek Hayden LinkedIn Dansig Insurance Risk Advisors Reach out to Ryan Hanley Rogue Risk Finding Peak Learn more about your ad choices.

Became a Master of the Close: https://masteroftheclose.com In this episode of The Ryan Hanley Show, Ryan Hanley sits down with Carol Roth . Carol Roth is the Creator of the Future File® legacy planning system, a national media personality, a billion-dollar dealmaker, a brand spokesperson, an investor, a board member & bestselling author of The War on Small Business . In this repeat visit to the podcast, Carol expands on your warning calls two years ago with the War on Small Business with her new book, You Will Own Nothing: Your War with a New Financial World Order and How to Fight Back. Carol is easily one of my personal favorite economic commentators for her real-world, pragmatic take without bias for political or word games. I highly recommend pre-ordering Carol's book: You Will Own Nothing: Your War with a New Financial World Order and How to Fight Back. You are going to love this conversation... Episode Highlights: Carol expresses her concerns about the changing global financial order and the possibility of a new financial world order. (5:21) Carol clarifies the conflation of central bank digital currency and cryptocurrency issues. (11:35) Carol mentions that people should be vigilant in order to prevent CBDC from being approved by Congress in order to create a digital dollar because CBDC could be sneaked into other legislation, potentially putting freedom and opportunity at risk. (15:51) Carol discusses the importance of people being informed about these issues and being exposed to various sources of information in order to understand the broader implications. (22:19) Ryan discusses the challenges that small business owners face in today's economy, as well as the importance of communicating these realities. (26:09) Carol mentions that individuals, families, and communities should be prepared for a possible shift in living standards as a result of the changing financial world order. (35:08) Carol explains the Fed's responsibility in holding the world reserve currency and the potential consequences of the dollar's decline. (41:32) Carol believes that people are shifting to digital currency out of fear of losing control, but they are unaware of the implications. (48:50) Carol mentions that people are afraid of being independent thinkers because they are afraid of losing their jobs and opportunities, so they don't ask questions they don't want to know the answers to. (52:32) Carol explains that accountability must be restored in order to reduce moral hazard and hold politicians accountable. (54:39) Key Quotes: “We have been at the center of the global financial universe, all of the signs everything that I'm sure that you're going to deep dive into the different pieces of this all lined up under this big umbrella. So that is the piece that's concerning me and everything else is just a puzzle piece on how that all comes together.” - Carol Roth “We have to be very clear that the central bank, digital currency, or digital dollar is not crypto for what it stands for because that's the first level of conflation.” - Carol Roth One thing I'll tell you is that while not every war brings about new financial world order, every new financial world order has been brought about by war, which is another important thing to think about…But you know, that's just the reality of kind of a final catalyst because everyone gets real desperate when they start feeling like they lose control of the money, which again is why they're moving towards the central bank digital currency. - Carol Roth Resources Mentioned: Carol Roth LinkedIn Future File® Book: You Will Own Nothing: Your War with a New Financial World Order and How to Fight Back.

(13:09) Stephen discusses his experience with changing his CRM system when starting his own agency.

(22:00) Stephen believes that many people are scared of change, particularly in the insurance industry where there is a divide between those who want to innovate and those who resist change. (28:21) Ryan shares one of the interesting takes by Gary Vaynerchuck about maximizing one's strengths instead of trying to fix one's weaknesses.

And so I'm still trying to train kind of the community and different things that I have now with T5, right? But it's been an easier transition because most of my branding and stuff has been around the personal brand of me.” - Stephen Turnbull “The experience and the headaches and the feeling of banging my head into the wall time and time again because I've had those experiences, I now know what I want to do differently now that I'm in the role of the owner to provide that young producer, that new producer, the tools that they need to build their brand with T5, and not have any roadblocks.” - Stephen Turnbull “I just want to say if anybody's listening to this, and there's a similar situation, maybe they feel like they're stuck, and they can't get out. Just remember and I wish somebody had said this to me earlier, that you're the only person that's going to make a change in your life. Right? You are the only one. There's a reason that the flight attendants tell you to put your mask on before helping others.

Became a Master of the Close: https://masteroftheclose.com In this episode of The Ryan Hanley Show , we're joined by Helen and Dave Edwards , founders of Sonder Studios and authors of Make Better Decisions: How to Improve Your Decision-Making in the Digital Age , an essential guide to practicing the cognitive skills needed for making better decisions in the age of data, algorithms, and AI. Do not miss this incredible deep dive into the next generation of artificial intelligence and the insurance industry… Episode Highlights: Dave shares that Sonder Studios has been operating since 2019, and it began with the purpose of truly opening people's minds to the depth of humanity in this digital age. (4:24) Helen explains that data has value once people or machines understand it since humans think in 1-4 dimensions, but machines can think in infinite dimensions. (10:29) Dave discusses that for the value of data to be translated to people, we humans must first understand what it means. (13:37) Helen explains how to determine when to ask the correct questions when presenting people with a single data item that they disagree with. (18:21) Helen explains that they wrote Make Better Decisions because decision making with data is very nuanced and one of the first things to look at is how our feelings are processing information. (28:09) Helen believes it's important to be able to calibrate your accuracy depending on how well you understand something. (37:37) Dave mentions that one of the nudges in their book is about recognizing who the humans are in the data and understanding what the data representation is. (43:25) Dave explains that success has several layers, and that's where people get stuck because they don't know what they're asking of the data or which experience to depend on. (48:14) Dave mentions that they named the book Make Better Decisions since there isn't one optimizable solution, heuristic, procedure, or six-step process to make a smart decision, but instead it’s a practice. (1:00:074) Key Quotes: “We sort of started Sonder studio with the mission of really wanting to open people's minds of the richness of humans, while we're in this digital age, you know, that it's not us being supplanted? It is actually where's the beauty? And where are the wonderful parts of being human? And how do we help people understand that?” - Dave Edwards “It's a good idea to have a good understanding of the state of your own knowledge. And that being able to calibrate your accuracy with how well you understand something, is actually a pretty good thing. ” - Helen Edwards “Our premise in our book and our premise around decision making is that there isn't one optimizable answer, there isn't one heuristic to follow, there isn't one process to follow, there isn't a six-step process to make a good decision. We believe this is truly a practice, which is why we have 50 nudges that help you get better, that's why we call it Make Better Decisions. ” - Dave Edwards Resources Mentioned: Helen Edwards LinkedIn Dave Edwards LinkedIn Sonder Studios Book: Make Better Decisions: How to Improve Your Decision-Making in the Digital Age Finding Peak Reach out to Ryan Hanley Learn more about your ad choices.

This is an absolutely tremendous conversation you don't want to miss... Episode Highlights: Tanner discusses his journey in the insurance industry, beginning with his entrepreneurial tech background. (7:16) Tanner mentions that Counterpart is committed to assisting individuals in growing and understanding their exposures.

(23:05) Tanner shares that the reason he gets out of bed every day is to support entrepreneurs who are taking risks and doing things differently. (29:15) Tanner discusses the importance of team consistency and having a clear vision. (36:19) Tanner mentions that it's difficult to be a leader in the insurance industry these days and move the industry forward because many are so entrenched in their current workflows. (46:01) Tanner explains small business risks and how Counterpart's products solve them. (55:03) Ryan believes that the advantage of data is not just marketing, it’s also communications. (1:03:00) Tanner explains they're here to educate the market about the potential for management liability. (1:04:57) Key Quotes: “It's really tough to be a leader these days in the insurance space and move the industry forward because people are so entrenched in their current workflows, current processes.” - Tanner Hackett “We want to be advocates for these small businesses. We want to take this off their plate because we talked about how hard it is to be a small business already, and be educating these businesses about what their exposures are, how they're researching, and how our product responds to those risks.” - Tanner Hackett “We're here to educate the market about the potential for Management Liability. Again, it's not where it is today, but what it should be for them in terms of the service that we can provide, and the quality product we can provide for the small business owners.

They explain why hard times demand a determined focus on simple, repeatable tasks that produce results. Don't miss this episode… Episode Highlights: Ryan shares that he is relaunching his newsletter, Finding Peak , which is focused on becoming the best version of yourself that you could possibly be. (2:17) Chris mentions that everything in the world is now on a single device, and it's not so much about being on the phone as it is about what is done there. (13:39) Ryan explains how Antifragile by Nicolas Nassim Taleb made him think about how he positions himself in the world, the skills he wants to acquire, and how he wants to set up his business and career so he can sustain himself personally and professionally. (21:15) Chris talks about the evolutionary way the brain works and how that impacts all aspects of our lives. (27:18) Chris discusses why he thinks people in the industry make things too complicated. (31:56) Chris explains that commercialized, competitive rating is one of the industry's hottest topics right now. (39:33) Chris believes that there is no such thing as the best tech stack unless it precisely matches the agency's business strategy. (47:50) Chris explains mid-funnel technology and why it is so successful right now. (56:24) Ryan believes that the winners and losers will be separated by true leadership moving forward. (1:05:52) Chirs mentions the importance of remaining steadfast around what you're trying to get accomplished, and truly giving your teams what they need to be successful through that. (1:16:50) Key Quotes: “Our brains are processing what's in front of us differently based on the experiences we've had. But you know, you and I can be in the same room and see very different things. But the core fundamental things I think we would see, it's just how do you let that stuff that sits in the margins, the complex stuff, the subconscious level stuff, minimize the interpretation.” - Chris Cline “You've got a relentless focus on processes first, making sure you got the right people in the right roles, doing the right things, and then use technology to bring that stuff to life.” - Chris Cline “Whenever things get funky, leadership wins. Being able to set a clear vision. Remain steadfast to it, be a clear and active champion around what you're trying to get accomplished.

Became a Master of the Close: https://masteroftheclose.com Like other industry disruptions preceding it, the InsurTech movement was widely viewed as a threat to the existence of the independent agency channel. Thus far, the independent agent has proven to be an invaluable component in meeting client needs and expectations. Still, technology advances are the ecosystem in which they must operate – together with their carrier and digital partners. In this panel, leaders representing the three components of this dynamic, IA’s, carriers, and tech, share their thoughts on how to make the customer journey a smoother one and why collaboration is a win-win for all parties. Don't miss this conversation... Episode Highlights: Ryan introduces his guests: Amy Zupon, CEO of Vertafore, Tyler Asher, President of IA Distribution for Liberty Mutual, and Matt Masiello, CEO of SAA. Amy Zupon mentions that the increasing amount of M&A in the industry is catching her attention right now. (8:50) Amy Zupon explains that there is a huge amount of money invested in the space right now, and she sees this trend continuing. (11:07) Matt Masiello shares that we are currently seeing a lot of exclusive business channels being converted to independent agency channels. (13:25) Tyler Asher explains that in the next few years, what he sees is better quality service and continuous growth in market share. (15:55) Matt Masiello believes that small businesses need to be a part of other organizations to remain small and independent . (22:27) Amy Zupon explains that as a software company, they believe in an open platform, and they belong to groups where they participate with tech companies that are similar to them. (27:12) Amy Zupon explains that the Orange Partner Program's concept is to be open and to establish relationships because the partnership is about trust and communication. (33:06) Matt Masiello mentions that partnership has two bookends, first, you have to like your partner, and second, you have to have the same goal as them. (37:40) Tyler Asher shares that the agents, carriers, technology providers, and vendors still have a lot of work to do when it comes to integration. (45:24) Tyler Asher explains that retention is materially higher when customers engage in online digital capabilities for service. (54:24) Matt Masiello shares that the two things independent agencies can do to scale their business are lead generation and digitization. (57:47) Key Quotes: "We did start that Orange Partner Program with the philosophy of being open and building on relationships and collaborating with others to build things." - Amy Zupon "To really grow, it means taking a look at the digital resources that are out there and getting them into your agency, which includes building a digital brand, whether you're in a geographic market, or a digital market." - Matt Masiello "I think right now, the biggest gap is making sure that we're serving customers in the way they need to be served today." - Tyler Asher Resources Mentioned: Amy Zupon LinkedIn Matt Masiello LinkedIn Tyler Asher LinkedIn Vertafore SIAA Liberty Mutual Insurance Reach out to Ryan Hanley Learn more about your ad choices.

Became a Master of the Close: https://masteroftheclose.com In this special episode, Ryan breaks down how in a "Human-Optimized" Agency of the Future, efficiency isn't the answer to exponential growth. Efficiency may be part of the solution, but it's not the whole solution, and a lack of understanding of this concept is where many insurtech startups go wrong. This is an episode you don't want to miss... Episode Highlights: Ryan believes that the Rouge model is proven to be productive, efficient, and replicable by anyone with the vision and guts to do so. (2:35) Ryan mentions that they are currently hiring at Rouge. Some of the positions they are looking for are aspiring chief revenue officers and producers. (6:11) Ryan explains that the positions available are not for traditional people but more for people that like to build relationships and have an open mind to a slightly different approach. (10:25) Ryan discusses how he got a great deal with a car dealership, and the moment he realized that the sales agent was just trying to sell something he had access to in his inventory. (15:30) Ryan shares that the Carvana experience with his car trade-in was much better, but recalls two things he had hiccups with, which were the verification and the lien. (20:36) Ryan explains that the car dealership experience he had was one example of a complete validation of the human-optimized model for the agency of the future. (27:08) Ryan mentions that an important part of a human-optimized model is the step-up process from self-service to automated, made by an inside force of licensed professionals and outsourced VAs. (31:48) Ryan explains that humans are still the most important part of the business, but if we push our customers directly to humans, we are limiting our ability to be efficient. (33:25) Ryan shares that the future of the insurance industry is still going to stand out in the future as long as the human-optimized model is utilized. (36:24) Key Quotes: "If your traditional local, independent agency still dictates the way business will be done, I don't believe that you have a future in the industry. You can maintain it for sure, but you're not growing." - Ryan Hanley "I also saw a lot of people that still believe that humans are not the answer. Humans are still an incredibly vital part of our business, still the most important part of our business. However, if we push all our customers directly to our humans, always the way we want it to be done, we are limiting our ability to be efficient." - Ryan Hanley "This is where I think the business is going. This is where I think our industry is going. I'm so bullish on the independent insurance industry. I just feel like this move to a human optimized model is the best way." - Ryan Hanley Resources Mentioned: Reach out to Ryan Hanley Rogue Risk SIAA Learn more about your ad choices.

Became a Master of the Close: https://masteroftheclose.com This episode is a replay of a live webinar Ryan did for David Carothers and the Killing Commercial community, breaking down the step-by-step method he's used over the last decade to drive consistent inbound leads into his agency using video marketing. This is a hyper-tactical episode, so sharpen your pencil and get ready to learn ALL the secrets of inbound video marketing. Don't miss this episode... Episode Highlights: Ryan explains that he repeated the 100 days, 100 videos commitment in 2020, using the same technique he used in 2018. (8:24) Ryan discusses how he searches for and creates his list of topics, which he then turns into a headline for videos that provide solutions. (11:31) According to Ryan, if the video has good audio and clean visuals, consumers will pay attention to it; but, if the video has a busy background, their attention will begin to dry up. (15:30) Ryan mentions the advantages of using the sun as the video's lighting setup and having crisp, clean audio. (19:07) Ryan shares that he doesn't use his costly camera equipment, but rather the cinematic mode on his iPhone, which performs the job very effectively. (22:47) Ryan believes that it is important to have a simple, clean, and repeatable video setup. (25:17) Ryan explains how he grabs his video from his iPhone and why his video templates are remarkably similar. (29:27) Ryan discusses the video formula he uses: beginning hook, middle build, and ending payoff. (31:26) Ryan mentions where he publishes his videos and why he distributes them where he does. (42:12) Ryan explains how referrals and people who contact you as a result of your video are not the same thing and should be handled differently. (46:08) Ryan describes what he does and how he handles phone calls from people in the internet space. (50:15) Key Quotes: “We use video every day in everything we do not just to do video to get some attention. We do it to drive business” - Ryan Hanley “Your consumers don't care. They absolutely, positively, without a doubt, do not give a crap about what equipment you use. Here's what they care about. They care that you are clear that they can see you and they care that they can hear you. And then after those two things, nothing else matters.” - Ryan Hanley “Doesn't matter how big the account is, solve the problem.

Became a Master of the Close: https://masteroftheclose.com In this episode of The Ryan Hanley Show, Ryan Hanley is joined by Jason Cass for an absolute blitz of conversation on insurance, insurtech, and everything and anything else we could discuss in a 60-minute podcast. You will be educated, and you will certainly be entertained. You are welcome, insurance industry... Episode Highlights: Ryan mentions that he will be purchasing David Carothers' book The Dirty 130 for his team since the book when combined with the workbook, is an extremely exciting program for producers (3:07) Jason explains that everything he and Ryan talked about before about what will happen in the insurance industry is already happening. (5:22) Ryan believes that there are brilliant individuals flying about all over and that if you have the opportunity to give them lifestyle work rather than a traditional job, you can get fantastic people all across the country. (7:22) Jason acknowledges that SAA provided him with the contract that got him the appointments, and he was able to accomplish it even though he was in his basement. (11:21) Ryan and Jason discuss the clichéd Boomer attitude and why it has to go. (16:47) Ryan mentions that it surprises people when he tells them that the average age of his team at Rouge Risk is 37 because most people expect them to be in their 20s. (21:19) Jason discusses how Jake Jines became an employee of The Insurance Alliance and the $572,000 deal that Jake and Gavin just closed on their own. (39:21) Ryan believes that data will play a significant role in the future of the industry, but that it may be both positive and negative. (42:14) Jason explains how it is all about the client's behavior. It's about the agent and how they're going to use AI technology and data to meet that individual in a different way. (44:36) Jason believes that there will come a time when data sharing between agencies will be as simple as a FanDuel. (49:06) Ryan believes that how we develop culture and workstyle in our organizations is almost as important as any other decision we make since it is how brilliant people are attracted. (1:04:06) Key Quotes: “I also predicted after Dan Burris that AI would invent art that's never been invented before. And just if you look at the Colorado festival that happened like two or three days ago, the guy who won with the artwork, it was completely AI-generated.” - Jason Cass “There are talented people flying all over the place. And if you have the ability to offer them lifestyle employment versus the classic, I'm going to bang on you and you should thank God that you have a paycheck style employment, you can get amazing people throughout the country.” - Ryan Hanley “It's about that behavior of what's happening with the client. It's about the agent and how they're going to use that AI technology, that data to be able to meet that person in a different type of way, what those ways that are going to analyze that.

Became a Master of the Close: https://masteroftheclose.com In this episode of The Ryan Hanley Show, Tanya Andolsen , President of Argosy Risk Specialists , joins the podcast for a deep dive into environmental insurance. We talk about what exactly environmental insurance is, why it's essential, and ultimately how independent insurance agents sell more of it. This is an episode you insurance nerds don't want to miss. Episode Highlights: Tanya discusses her background and how she got started in the insurance industry 27 years ago. (4:19) Tanya explains the concept of being in the environmental insurance industry and the processes they follow. (9:54) Tanya shares how everything can be related to our environment and how this can be explained to clients and contractors.

(23:35) Tanya explains that environmental insurance helps clients with the things they cannot control. (30:46) Tanya mentions that the process for environmental insurance is similar to other wholesale brokers that have an environmental division, and most policies are placed. (35:26) Tanya explains that it is very important to have access to resources that will help clients understand their coverage. (38:56) Key Quotes: "What environmental insurance does is it helps you with the things that you can't control; the people that are coming by your property, your neighbors, you know, those class action lawsuits, things like that." - Tanya Andolsen "A large percentage of what I see are developers, real estate investment trusts, and the reason they're buying it is that they've got the investors and lenders, and they want to make sure that they're covered and that there's protection there in the event of an environmental issue." - Tanya Andolsen "Unfortunately, our society is becoming more and more litigious, and, you know, those are the things that insurance is there to help you with, to help your bottom line, or protect you because the chances are you don't have this coffer of money set aside to defend yourself from an environmental claim." - Tanya Andolsen Resources Mentioned: Tanya Andolsen LinkedIn Argosy Risk Specialists Reach out to Ryan Hanley Learn more about your ad choices.

(20:22) Ryan believes that understanding where the company goes without rating multiple carriers is the way to place business faster with the appropriate carrier.

Because companies are changing their rates and changing things.” - Jeff Roy “Why would you want to use a bot? Really, you want to replace anything that humans are doing that they don’t need to do with technology. And a bot, once it's trained, can do it reliable every time.” - Jeff Roy “The bot is secure double factor authentication, you know, there's no way of getting it hacked in any different than our staff. So that's why it was important that we had the double factor authentication to get in, because I don't want to log into anything without that.” - Jeff Roy Resources Mentioned: Jeff Roy LinkedIn Excalibur Insurance Reach out to Ryan Hanley Learn more about your ad choices.

Became a Master of the Close: https://masteroftheclose.com Darrin Schenck , VP of Sales and Marketing for TriageNow joins the podcast for a deep dive into nurse triage services. We learn what nurse triage services are, how they work, and why nurse triage is a necessary value-added service for all commercial independent insurance agents. Episode Highlights: Darrin mentions he's been with TriageNow since day one and has witnessed the company grow from an idea written on the back of a napkin to one of the top providers of telephonic nurse triage services in the nation.

(6:38) Mark mentions that having lead generations in their DNA made them unique, as well as running a Virtual Insurance Agency for eight years and realizing that not all leads are excellent leads for everyone. (15:44) Ryan believes that there is always a great opportunity in trucking; the industry attracts a lot of drivers because they see what folks do with Commercial Auto, but the industry lacks the in-house knowledge to be a trucking firm. (20:48) Mark discusses the difficulties they had trying to get their original appointments while they were still an insurance firm. (22:46) Mark mentions that what keeps him awake at night is dreaming about selling insurance online without speaking with a customer and managing loss ratios, and ensuring that they are accurately classified. (24:23) Mark discusses his predictions for what will happen next in the digital space. (31:14) Mark mentions that one of the things he disliked about being an entrepreneur was when he first started and everyone encouraged him not to be a generalist.

It’s taking a lot longer and it's because it's a difficult product.” - Mark McClure “What the future looks like, you know, my hope is eventually we get to a point where we can ask the customer do they want to talk to an agent that I think that's not going away, not during my working career. Or do they want to purchase online? If they want to purchase online, most likely to protect customer experience will take them down that route for those that have that ability and others we might obviously steer through the call of change.

Raghav is always the most interesting guy in the room, so don't miss this tremendous episode... Episode Highlights: Raghav talks about the impact of embedded insurance on independent insurance agencies. (5:50) Raghav explains how Tarmika can help create the ideal digital insurance workflow. (10:06) Raghav mentions the need to embed oneself in areas where consumers already trust the brand. (15:15) Raghav explains why retention is where agencies need to focus their customer experience in a digital world.

(39:34) Key Quotes: “You need to embed yourself into places where people already trust the brand.” - Raghav Tanna “Embedded insurance is a buzzword, and I wish there was a different word we can use. Because I think too many people say they can do it. It does not completely destroy the independent agency channel and it shouldn't. It makes people work harder and work differently to get small commercial business for their agency. I think that's the piece that we need to focus.” - Raghav Tanna “I think you need to make 30-40 touch points per customer to make sure they feel heard and feel wanted. Right? You have to do that. Because you have zero touchpoints when you sell them in a digital world.” - Raghav Tanna Resources Mentioned: Raghav Tanna LinkedIn Tarmika Reach out to Ryan Hanley Learn more about your ad choices.

But, there's power in when somebody actually takes the time to design it... to create it in someone’s life.” - Clint Pulver “When a manager became a mentor in somebody's life, where they advocated as much as they developed, when somebody looked at that person and said...Because of you, my life's going to be a better story.” - Clint Pulver “No significant loyalty will ever happen without significant connection. Mentorship is priceless in this because mentorship is not leadership. It's also not management. Mentorship cannot be given, it's not a title. Nobody gives a title to a mentor. You're not like, you got this promotion. Now you're a mentor. It doesn't happen that way.

And architecting a business that was built to solve the problems I couldn't solve in some of my past lives.” - Steve Lekas “I think our mission is to make insurance less expensive, and by making it less expensive, we can help more people be insured, which we most explicitly go after through our nonprofit arm safety nest.” - Steve Lekas Resources Mentioned: Agency Intelligence Reach out to Ryan Hanley Steve Lekas LinkedIn Branch Insurance Advertisers: Tarmika We Got Your Podcast Learn more about your ad choices.
