Expert Edge Podcast

AI is getting faster, smarter, and more accessible by the day. Content is cheaper. Tactics are everywhere. And "good enough" is now automated.
So why does it feel harder than ever to actually influence people?
In this episode of The Expert Edge, Colin breaks down what still moves humans in an AI-driven world and why influence today has far less to do with tools, prompts, or platforms… and everything to do with presence, trust, and conviction.
This isn't an episode about fighting AI or avoiding it.
It's about understanding the one thing AI can't replicate, human influence, and how to lean into it more intentionally as a coach, speaker, or course creator.
You'll discover:
Why information no longer creates authority and what replaces it

The invisible elements that make people trust, follow, and buy (even when they've seen the same ideas before)

How to shift from "content creator" to "trusted voice" in a crowded, automated marketplace

Why certainty, embodiment, and emotional safety now outperform clever tactics

If you've felt like your message should be landing… but isn't converting the way it used to. This episode will help you recalibrate what actually drives influence in this new era.
Because in an AI generation, the people who win aren't the loudest or the most optimized.
They're the most human.

Most workshops don't fail because the content is bad… They fail because nothing actually changes afterward.
People leave inspired, take a few notes, and then go right back to doing the exact same things they were doing before. No behavior shift. No momentum. No real results.
In this episode of The Expert Edge, I break down what actually makes a workshop transformational instead of just informational - and how you can design experiences that create real breakthroughs for your clients (and make your offers feel like a no-brainer to say yes to).
We talk about:
Why teaching more doesn't create more impact - and what does

How to structure workshops so people actually implement

The simple shifts that turn "nice training" into "I need to work with you" moments

How transformational experiences naturally lead into higher-level offers without feeling salesy

If you run live events, group programs, masterminds, challenges, or client intensives, this episode will completely change how you think about workshops - and how powerful they can be when designed the right way.
This one is especially powerful if you've ever felt like you're giving great content… but not seeing great results on the back end.
Listen in and learn how to turn your workshops into the engine that drives client breakthroughs and business growth.

Big revenue months shouldn't feel like a surprise.
Yet for most coaches and course creators, they do.
One month feels great. The next feels… confusing. And somewhere in between, you're wondering if you did something wrong or if this is just how business works.
In this episode of The Expert Edge, I break down why inconsistent income is almost never a strategy problem and almost always a planning problem.
This isn't about complicated spreadsheets or rigid forecasts. It's about creating intentional space for high-revenue months before they arrive.
You'll learn:
Why most people plan reactively instead of proactively and how that quietly caps their income

The simple shifts that allow your nervous system, calendar, and offers to support bigger months

How to stop "hoping" for great months and start building toward them on purpose

If your income feels unpredictable, stressful, or harder than it needs to be… this episode will help you step back, zoom out, and create clarity around what you actually want your year to look like.
Because high-revenue months aren't magic.
They're planned.

What if the income ceiling in your business has less to do with strategy and everything to do with what you believe is possible for yourself?
In this episode of The Expert Edge, I share a moment that quietly changed everything for me. At the time, I was doing around $110- $120K a year in my coaching business and felt constantly frustrated. Not because I was failing but because I knew people making five times that, and deep down, I believed I was just as capable.
That tension led to a realization that stung a little… and then unlocked a completely new level of growth.
Your income is a reflection of the value you believe you're bringing and the version of yourself you're willing to let the world see.
This isn't a tactical episode about funnels, fonts, or posting more content. It's a reflective conversation about the internal beliefs that quietly cap your income, shape your confidence, and determine how big you're willing to play.
In this episode, I walk you through three belief shifts that helped me grow from six figures into multi-seven figures and that may be exactly what you need as you step into the new year:
• Why it must feel safe to become a bigger version of yourself
• How taking back control changes everything (even when life gets chaotic)
• Why every problem in your business is actually pointing to profit
This is the kind of episode you'll want to listen to on a walk, a drive, or when you've got space to really think. If you've felt like you're close to the next level - but something keeps holding you back - this conversation will help you name it and move through it.

Most people think building a personal brand is about better content, sharper hooks, or posting more consistently.
That's part of it - but it's not the reason some brands last while others fade the second the algorithm changes.
In this episode of The Expert Edge, I break down what actually creates a personal brand that compounds over time - especially in a world where AI can generate content, copy, and strategies in seconds.
You'll hear why presence beats polish, why clarity beats creativity, and why trust is the real currency behind every enduring brand.
Inside this episode, I unpack:
Why being known for one clear thing matters more than doing everything well

How consistency and care create a moat around your business

The overlooked reason visibility (yes, volume) still matters even when your message is strong

This isn't an episode about chasing trends or gaming platforms.
It's about building something that still works five, ten, even twenty years from now.
If you want clients who trust you before they ever speak to you and a brand that grows even when you're not pushing - this conversation will change how you think about personal branding forever.
