      <title>Episode 65 - Unchaperoned: Goal Setting and Mindset for a Successful 2024</title>
      <description><![CDATA[On this episode, Kristin reflects on her mindset and goal-setting process for the new year. She discusses the success triangle, which emphasizes the importance of attitude, behavior, and technique in achieving success. She also explores the concept of a prayer board as an alternative to a vision board, where she maps out areas of her life she wants to work on and includes prayers for each. Kristin believes in maintaining a balanced life and focuses on mental, spiritual, physical, family, financial, personal, and career aspects. She emphasizes the importance of energy and attention in achieving goals and creating habits. Kristin shares her plans for creating a vision board, scheduling team alignment, and choosing a word or phrase of the year. She invites listeners to share their own goal-setting strategies and ideas.

In this episode, we discuss:
The success triangle
A prayer board can be a powerful tool for setting intentions
Maintaining a balanced life involves focusing on mental, spiritual, physical, family, financial, personal, and career aspects.
Creating habits and setting goals requires reflection, intention, and alignment with personal values.

Quotes:
"If you ain't got attitude, you ain't going nowhere." - Kristin
"Energy flows where attention goes." - Tony Robbins

About: 
Professionally, Kristin is the Founder and CEO of the admired female-owned and operated DJ company, Our DJ Rocks. and Entertainment Brands Photobooth Rocks ONYX Powered by Our DJ Rocks. Based in Orlando, FL. We are a 7 figure entertainment collection of brands that rock 600-800 events a year collectively with our roster of talented DJs and a team of over 20 dedicated event and hospitality professionals. 

Personally, she is a Believer with a lion's heart, a dash of sass, a perfectly organized real-life Barbie dream townhome, always up for an adventure, playlist for every occasion kinda girl, who loves to travel... but not as much as I love making memories with the people I love. (ask me about my polaroids, mixtiles and memory books). 

And somewhere in the middle of both of those worlds, my passion for music metamorphosizes into my first debut country album ‘Heartbound’.

Talya Kosstrin, owner of Progressive Trans4mation, is a certified Integrative Nutrition Health Coach who learned that it’s absolutely possible to live in a fast-paced environment and still maintain a healthy lifestyle.
 
Talya began her career in the hospitality field. Although she loved planning events, she experienced first-hand the adverse effects of a demanding and stressful job. Talya realized the importance of making the time to plan ahead and take care of her own health so that she could be her best self for others. Over time, she became interested in learning more about positive strategies to deal with the stresses of high-pressure jobs. 

Talya helps her clients to focus on small, daily steps, and her goal is to inspire them to make gradual changes towards a happier, healthier, and more harmonized life.
 
As clients learn the importance of making the time for self-care, they are less stressed, feel more energized, lose weight, sleep better, and feel a greater sense of self-confidence.

      <title>Episode 63 - Burn Out + Boundaries with Megan Gillikin</title>
      <description><![CDATA[You feel burned out, overwhelmed, undervalued, and underpaid—and you’re drowning in your daily CEO to-do list. So in this episode, I’m keeping it real with a conversation about Burn out + Boundaries with Megan Gilliken of the Planners Vault!

In this episode we discuss:
Transitioning from various phases in business, including hustle, growth, burnout, and selling a business.
Imposter Syndrome and tips for quieting that inner critic.
Reevaluating personal and professional priorities using a "soul-sucking list."
Identifying and focusing on "Heck Yeses" and "Heck Nos" in life and business.
Setting 90-day goals and maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

About: Megan Gillikin is a serial entrepreneur, a champion of building connection through authenticity and an international speaker who is dedicated to making life easier for wedding pros at any stage of business.

Megan's professional mission is to protect heart-centered, high-achieving entrepreneurs from the woes of bad business decisions and crippling burnout by equipping them with tools, resources and mindset shifts to help them thrive in all areas of life.  

Megan got her start almost 2 decades ago in the hotel and event industry and ventured into the world of entrepreneurship in an unconventional way back in 2010.  Her business superpowers include building and selling a successful multi-six figure business, coaching hundreds of wedding industry entrepreneurs on building profitable businesses within her membership The Planner’s Vault, drinking her coffee black, and being able to identify that song playing in the background that no one else can hear.
  
As a professional coach, online community builder, investor in small female-owned businesses, and a recovering people pleaser, Megan is known for sharing her expertise in a relatable, funny and impactful way that has brought success and clarity to thousands of wedding pros across the world through her podcast, Weddings For Real.   Megan’s also been voted a top-ranked speaker at conferences such as WeddingMBA, NACE, WIPA, and WeddingPro COR.

When Megan isn’t helping entrepreneurs tap into their own inner genius, you’ll find her scribbling big ideas on notebooks, napkins and sticky notes or hanging at home with her husband Jason and three daughters trying to embarrass them with her terrible, yet enthusiastic, dance moves.

      <itunes:summary>It’s time we create an orbit of badasses around us to take our business and our souls to new heights. Whether you&apos;re an entrepreneur, a seasoned executive, or a startup founder, assembling a stellar team is the key to growth. 

In one of my last sessions with my business coach, Matt Radicelli who also is the founder of Mentor Pods where I have two of my team members enrolled - he used the term - “orbit of badasses.” And I’m like - OMG wait, lemme write that down - WE HAVE to talk about that! 

And here we are joined by - Matt Radicelli!

Want to know more about Mentor Pods? Matt has a special Love Lead Excel page just for you! 
https://mentorpods.com/loveleadexcel

In This Episode We Discuss:
What does building an orbit of badasses even mean?
How to build this orbit to trigger growth in business
The importance of your orbit
What impact will it have on you personally

About: 
Matt Radicelli is a lifelong entrepreneur. After 25 years of buying, building, managing, and selling event-industry businesses, he recently exited his largest venture and founded Mentor Pods Group Coaching, where he dedicates the majority of his time helping all types of event-based executives, business owners, and key associates ‘level up’, make better decisions faster, and become the very best versions of themselves.

Matt’s rare personality profile makes him a uniquely qualified coach and consultant.
With a 50/50 split for creative and analytical skills and an expert-level understanding of all disciplines of business - he helps move the needle in every aspect of business - which is where he got his nickname, “The Business Handyman”.

He speaks, coaches, and mentors others throughout the country, but never stops learning. Matt’s Motto, “Decline, Delegate, Do” keeps him on track daily and serves as the founding principle of his coaching methodologies.

Above all else, Matt keeps his priorities straight. Family first. Period.

      <title>Episode 58 - Where Do We Grow From Here?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Hey Friends! I’m so EXCITED because SEASON 4 is NOW LIVE!

Mannnnn, when we wrapped up season three, there were so many irons in the fire and so many things were going on, as I'm sitting here thinking, Okay, what do I want to share? How do I recap you on my life, so that I can come back refreshed and share all the nuggets and learnings and all the things? So I decided, there’s nothing I need to curate, just be purely open and share. 

So, as we kick off this season, I’ll give some live updates as well as dive  into the multifaceted concept of personal and professional growth by examining three distinct dimensions: inward, upward, and outward. Each dimension represents a unique pathway to self-improvement and development. 

No matter where you are, pull back that bow and arrow if you need to pull it back as deep and as far as you need to go. Or if you've already pulled back and you are ready for the upward and outward. You go boo. You go do you! 	 

LISTEN NOW as we explore these dimensions, offering insights and strategies to help you embark on your own journey of growth.

Mannnnn, when we wrapped up season three, there were so many irons in the fire and so many things were going on, as I&apos;m sitting here thinking, Okay, what do I want to share? How do I recap you on my life, so that I can come back refreshed and share all the nuggets and learnings and all the things? So I decided, there’s nothing I need to curate, just be purely open and share. 

So, as we kick off this season, I’ll give some live updates as well as dive  into the multifaceted concept of personal and professional growth by examining three distinct dimensions: inward, upward, and outward. Each dimension represents a unique pathway to self-improvement and development. 

No matter where you are, pull back that bow and arrow if you need to pull it back as deep and as far as you need to go. Or if you&apos;ve already pulled back and you are ready for the upward and outward. You go boo. You go do you! 	 

LISTEN NOW as we explore these dimensions, offering insights and strategies to help you embark on your own journey of growth.

      <title>Episode 54 - Unchaperoned: You Better Recognize</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Welcome to another UNCHAPERONED segment of the Love Lead Excel Podcast. This is going to be ME running wild with my unchaperoned thoughts sharing one on one with you.

Inspiration is everywhere you go. So you better recognize - look internally because sometimes when you run into an obstacle it isn't what you think it is. Sometimes it’s you. So you better recognize. The late “Andy Ebon” said - Wisdom is the ability to see two opposing viewpoints at the same time and be amicable about it.

This statement couldn't ring any more bells when it comes to being a leader and in client service. Eliminating False Pride might be your answer.

      <description><![CDATA[From my heart to yours, WELCOME to the Love Lead Excel Podcast. I’m Kristin. 

Friends - during my season of reflecting on the past year, and strategizing life and business in the new year, I’ve had some great conversations with my business coach Matt Radicelli!

When he said that I was like - OMG Woah THAT’S a bold statement and also let me take notes because I may need to share this with others”

So, In This Episode We Discuss:
How Do You Identify When it’s Time to Foster Growth and Push Your Team
Your Super Powers Might Be Slowing You Down + Why

Friends - during my season of reflecting on the past year, and strategizing life and business in the new year, I’ve had some great conversations with my business coach Matt Radicelli! And in one of our last sessions, he said “no one wakes up and says I wanna be a boss, if they do they are the wrong person”. When he said that I was like - OMG Woah THAT’S a bold statement and also let me take notes because I may need to share this with others”

So, In This Episode We Discuss:
How Do You Identify When it’s Time to Foster Growth and Push Your Team
Your Super Powers Might Be Slowing You Down + Why
What Does it Mean to Hire Fast and Fire Faster
What is MentorPods and Why It can be Crucial for your Business

      <title>Episode 49 - Mental Health, Success, Depression and Activism with Nick Duve</title>
      <description><![CDATA[From my heart to yours, WELCOME to the Love Lead Excel Podcast. I’m Kristin. 

Mental Health. Success. Depression and activism are just some of the things we touch on today. In this episode, is a 10 year, good friend of mine, Nick Duve! He MADE his mark in Orlando as one of the #1 Disney Performers, DJed as an opener for the Zac Brown Band, and worked for some of the heaviest hitter DJ and Production Companies in the US. 

He truly LOVES what he does, LIVES his life by example and has exceeded it all. But it didn't come without behind-the-door struggles. Aside from all of his accolades, a true testament to his character is who he is as a father to Anderson and husband to Steve. 

“Let’s chat with Husband, Father and trail blazer, Nick Duve!”

Before you assume, learn the facts. Before you judge, understand why. Before you hurt someone, feel. Before you speak, think.  WE RISE BY LIFTING.

      <title>Episode 48 - Unchaperoned: The Fisherman + The Business Man - A 3 Min Life Lesson</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Hey Friends! 
 
Welcome to another UNCHAPERONED segment of the Love Lead Excel Podcast. This is going to be ME running wild with my unchaperoned thoughts sharing one on one with you. 

I was recently reminded by my friend George Lopez of the story written by the famous Brazilian Novelist Paulo Coelho called, The Fisherman + the Businessman. This is intentionally less than a 3-minute episode, so there is no excuse as to why you don't have time for this small lesson this week.

      <description><![CDATA[I’m def the type of person that is still stuck on the habit from 2020 of ordering groceries on an
app and picking them up. But the other day I went into the Grocery Store and OMG did you know eggs were almost $9!?

As most of you know - I also just bought a townhome - and so between renovations, new bills like HOA
and property taxes and the cashiers at lowes now knowing me on a first-name basis - it was time to
REBUDGET MY PERSONAL LIFE.

I remember when I moved out on my own at 17 - my Aunt Lisa taught me how to make a budget in a

      <title>Episode 46 - Why + How Building a Board of Directors is Crucial in Life and Business</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Everyone needs a life and business board of directors. These are the group of people who mentor you and help you find direction. I can promise you, you are not the smartest cookie in the cookie jar, and if you are, good on you. But If you feel like you are, then you need to take a look in the mirror and realize that you cannot be the jack of all trades. You cannot be good at everything you do. 

This is where a life and business board of directors comes in, which is a trusted circle of people you can turn to for advice, perspective, and help with decision-making in life and business. 

In This Episode We Discuss:
Why A board of Directors is important
How to Recruit for your life and Business
Why did Kristin Use a basketball reference to Tie it all In

      <title>Episode 45 - My Biggest Takeaways from the DJ Collective Experience</title>
      <description><![CDATA[I was sitting on the plane ride home from DJC and going through photos from last year's DJC on my phone. Wow, it’s been a year. 

This year's DJC theme was leadership. And so that message was all throughout each session. And now - as I reflect and come home - I can think of so many reasons why this year's theme of Leadership resonates with me.  

So in this episode, we talk about:
My Biggest Take Aways and Lessons Learned from DJC 2022
Quick Tips to Maximize Your Next Conference or Networking Event
Favorite Speaker Quotes from DJC 2022
And a little Kristin motivation inspired by her visit with dad after the plane ride. 

See you all at DJC 2023!

      <title>Episode 44 - How to Know What you Don&apos;t Know; When Building Your Business</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Hey friends - our entertainment brands have recently hit the most giant financial milestone in business that every business owner has ever dreamed of. And with that has come a lot of reflection - how in the world did I get here. You all call me this all the time and sometimes I seriously don't know how to answer it. But I'm doing my best in each episode to bring you minute-by-minute things I do to help build what you see today. Not just the side pony, full of life, sometimes messy, but organized AF business owner and creative, but also the structure, loyalty and commitment I have between myself and my teams. 

I was recently talking about one of the last DJ events that I did. There was a DJ in our community that was getting married who I KNEW I could slay and he hired me for this wedding. I was given no direction other than we like, 90s, 2000s, freestyle, salsa and merengue. No reggaeton - you do you. And I’m thinking… well what if. 

The thing is… I can do 90s, 2000s, freestyle... On don't get me started on mep mep mep mep mep, but what if the event took a turn and got me too far into a subculture genre that I didn't know. 

So in this episode, we’re talking about building your personal brand by understanding how to identify and know WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW. 

In This Episode We Discuss:
How To Identify What You Don’t Know
Ask as many questions as you can
Your position is important! Ayyye! 
Don't Sit On It - Take Action
Create Your Own Rue

I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious." ~ Albert Einstein

      <title>Episode 43 - Top Tips for How to Avoid Burnout Syndrome</title>
      <description><![CDATA[We are all creatives. It’s imperative that we understand what stifles our creativity is what draws our
clients to us to begin with. Being overwhelmed, high levels of stress and not having enough time for
mindfulness are just a few things that stifle our creativity.

One of the biggest mistakes I've made in crippling my ability to perform at peak levels is when I event
managed, prepped, loaded in for and performed 4 weddings a weekend, 49+ weekends a year, I was not
able to perform at the same level as if I did the same for 1 wedding.

That being said, expenses are not flexible, so understanding the delicate balance of scheduling your
priorities and life balance should be something you consider when setting the prices for your services
and budgeting life for a thriving and successful creative.

In this episode, we discuss the keys to avoiding burnout.

1. What leads to burnout
2. How to avoid burnout
3. What to do if you’re already in burnout mode.

      <description><![CDATA[Hey Friends! 
 
Welcome to another UNCHAPERONED segment of the Love Lead Excel Podcast. 

This is going to be ME running wild with my unchaperoned thoughts sharing one on one with you. 
-------------------------
Marcello Pedalino recently reminded me at this summer's Think Tank Symposium, if you want to change your life, change your environment. And I feel like I’ve been doing ALOT of that lately. But in the midst of all of that, I feel like at times I’ve been lost. And then funny thing is, one of my DJs wrote me a sweet note this summer, out of nowhere and she said” Kristin there is an african proverb that says to get lost is the find the way.”

----------------

I am so refreshed from the DJ Think Tank summer symposium we had. There were 3 themes that education revolved around:  Reunion, Recovery, Reflection and Response.

JW Jaeger was brought in on day 4 to speak on the theme of response. How do you take everything you’ve learned and take action in life? His presentation was called “Broken Crayons Still Colors, “ so in this episode I bring him back to summarize that and pump all of you up!

      <itunes:summary>Hey Friends! 
 
Welcome to another UNCHAPERONED segment of the Love Lead Excel Podcast. 

This is going to be ME running wild with my unchaperoned thoughts sharing one on one with you. 
----------------

I am so refreshed from the DJ Think Tank summer symposium we had. There were 3 themes that education revolved around:  Reunion, Recovery, Reflection and Response.

JW Jaeger was brought in on day 4 to speak on the theme of response. How do you take everything you’ve learned and take action in life? His presentation was called “Broken Crayons Still Colors, “ so in this episode I bring him back to summarize that and pump all of you up!

      <title>Episode 38 - Season 3 Starts Now; Calm After the Storm, Mindset Update + Getting Re-Energized</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Summer was really important for me to take some time - to really reflect and refocus. It feels like I’ve spent the last 38 years of my life on the go and so in the seasons of growth and transition, I felt it was SO important to peel back as many layers as I could, to find the grassroots. And in that, hope to find a deeper purpose and clear guidance for direction. 

Here’s the thing  - I feel like so many people may say they need “time off” or time to reflect… but what are you doing with that time? So in the spirit of the season 3 launch… in a TRUE new season, I want to share with you what I did to reflect and refresh for the coming new season of my life. 

In this episode I talk about:

How  I was Productive yet Balanced this summer
What we are doing to re-energize for the fall 2022 Business Season
Kristin’s Mindset Update
And Super Fun Facts that might make you LOL!

You know all those things you’ve always wanted to do? You should go do them.

      <title>Episode 37 - Unchaperoned Create a Reality You Don&apos;t Need a Vacay From</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Hey Friends! 
 
Welcome to another UNCHAPERONED segment of the Love Lead Excel Podcast. 

This is going to be ME running wild with my unchaperoned thoughts sharing one on one with you. 

It’s been a jam packed week and day with a color coded, meeting filled, exhilarating 7 days. One question changed my trajectory today; what do you love about what you do and why do you still do it? 

So today I share my heart with you and also take my own advice to create a reality I don’t need to escape from. 

As we wrap up season 2 and the first half of the year, I’m gonna take my own advice. I’m going to take some time off, and enjoy the summer with my Dad. I’m going to listen to my heart and I'll spend time with you when my heart is ready again. Until next time, I empower you to continue to love what you do, lead by example and excel at it all.

I don’t know if there has been another time in my life where I’ve been more open to seeing and understanding the diverse group of humans that I’ve connected with in my life than in the last 2 years. People come into your life for a reason. So let’s talk about the messages you receive on a daily basis and how to filter them.

      <title>Episode 35 - Unchaperoned: A Bitesize Talk on the Importance of Building Processes in your Business aka SOPs</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Hey Friends! 
 
Welcome to another UNCHAPERONED segment of the Love Lead Excel Podcast. 

This is going to be ME running wild with my unchaperoned thoughts sharing one on one with you. 

I just got out of my Tuesday ops meeting as well as spending 48 straight hours in our warehouses and so in this episode,  I’d like to share a bite size piece of how I built this 7 figure business using the strategy behind the Book TRACTION by Gino Wickman. From the 6 business fundamentals, we’ll talk specifically about one, which is building YOUR PROCESSES in your business and why it’s important.

      <title>Episode 33 - LIVE from San Juan Puerto Rico with Claire + Rob with That First Moment - Disney Fairy Tale Wedding Photographers Got Married.wav</title>
      <description><![CDATA[From my heart to yours, WELCOME to the Love Lead Excel Podcast. I’m Kristin Wilson. 

I went LIVE I am LIVE from Puerto Rico recapping the most EPIC wedding of the Century with Claire and Rob. Claire + Rob are the most sought-after Disney FairyTale Wedding Photographers with That First Moment. They are passionate about adventure and life, and so it comes as no surprise that the two of them planned the most detailed destination wedding in San Juan Puerto Rico. There was no detail left unturned from Rob’s entrance on a horse into the ceremony, to the custom comic booth gift, to the fireworks at the end of the night. 

We are also so excited to have our boutique brand ONYX powered by Our DJ Rocks produce the entertainment. 

This episode was recorded in a pool a few days after the wedding, so enjoy the authentic conversion of friends just recapping an epic event with the wind in the background. 

In this episode, we discuss:
How to Surprise your Spouse on Wedding Day
Epic Events You Can Add to Make Your Wedding Event Unique
How to Recreate the Romance Moving Forward

That First Moments Mission:
We've been told all our lives we are going to find someone who we will be happy to commit forever to, but what does that mean? As we get closer we understand it means that we are agreeing to make a family and be partners in all things. All the decisions we make are carving who we are, and how our story will be told, and I don't know about you, but I want to remember this!! Every feeling of excitement,  every giggle of joy, every nervous moment. I am so grateful we have A-team that we trust will forever keep our memories alive and breathing and that's what we want to do for you is have you feel every moment again. . Even more so we want to enhance it so we will be there every step of the way to guide you and make it fun. We, more than photographers; were your friends and as such, we're all in.

      <title>Episode 27 - F*ck it! - My Real + Raw Convo with Dad</title>
      <description><![CDATA[From my heart to yours, WELCOME to the Love Lead Excel Podcast. 

My dad was diagnosed with congestive heart failure and last March his organs were failing and his heart decreased to 5%. I stayed in the hospital with him for 30 days and I then brought him home to help bring him back to a decent health. 

During that time we had so many deep conversations about life. 6 months later I got to share a dinner date night over oysters with him. (One of my fav things as some of you know.)  And I couldn’t help but just hit record. 

Not many people can say they have these conversations with their parents,  let alone record to come back to. And regardless that it was NOT recorded with a Shure mic, in my studio, OR the fact that you can hear the shucking of the oysters in the background, THIS is real, it’s raw and it’s authentic. 

Every episode has been my favorite, but this one is attached to the strings of my heart.

Here are the steps of life with my dad over oysters. 

In this episode, I discuss:
10 steps of life 
All about perseverance 
Shift gears and hauling ass

Welcome to another UNCHAPERONED segment of the Love Lead Excel Podcast.

This episode is ALL triggered by a string of emails I got. Now, I’m going on a soapbox for just a moment, but I’ll keep it short: Do not Reply All.

      <title>Episode 19 - The Secret Weapon in Your Business: Number Two Talk with Christina Matteucci.</title>
      <description><![CDATA[From my heart to yours, WELCOME to the Love Lead Excel Podcast. I’m Kristin Wilson. 

Running a business and having employees is NOT an easy feat. Sometimes, you want to throw in the towel and just throw up your hands. IT’S ALSO sometimes THE WORST feeling to work for someone when you have things on your mind or things you want to change and you feel undervalued or unseen. 

Ya’ll - my heart is SO full after spending time with Christina Matteucci. I am begging you to time block, whether you are a business owner or someone working on someone's business, to LEAN IN this episode.

Christina is A PASSIONATE POWERHOUSE who EVERYONE needs in their life, whether you need an event designer, a speaker or a coach. She is chock-full of wisdom and passion that no matter if you are a #1 or a #2 you NEED in your life. This episode is dedicated to my numbers twos: Jennie, Casey, Shadow and Stasia in addition to the force of a team I have behind me at Our DJ Rocks and Photobooth Rocks-  who I could NOT be doing life or business without right now. 

Let’s Lean In…

Bio
Executive Director of David Beahm Experiences, Christina Matteucci pioneers an integral role within the special event industry as Number Two to celebrity event designer David Beahm.  Now in her nineteenth year of collaboration with David, Christina has spent almost two decades skillfully executing unfathomably complex soirées all over the globe.

Christina credits her rigorous conservatory theater training at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts (2001) with her ability to conceive and produce lavish event experiences.  She also asserts that her finesse for the fantastic has been enhanced and honed through wholeheartedly embracing the position of Number Two—a role that has blossomed into an esteemed symbiotic partnership with David.  By exemplifying the time-honored model of apprenticeship and mentorship, Christina cultivates a robustly innovative workplace that thrives on deeply rooted collaboration; as such, she is a champion of egalitarian business principles.

Her bohemian theories on how we define professional success earn her coveted speaking opportunities within the global special events industry, inspiring and captivating audiences with her no-nonsense, comedic, and self-effacing style.  On November 23, 2019, Christina had the honor of speaking alongside Eliza Reid, First Lady of Iceland, at TEDxBeaconStreet, Boston.  

By virtue of her particular aptitude for team building, Christina is uniquely qualified to counsel both emerging professionals embarking on their career paths (thus earning her the moniker TeucciMama: Mother Hen of the Number Twos) as well as CEOs who value synergistic, cooperative corporate cultures.

      <itunes:summary>From my heart to yours, WELCOME to the Love Lead Excel Podcast. I’m Kristin Wilson. 

Running a business and having employees is NOT an easy feat. Sometimes, you want to throw in the towel and just throw up your hands. IT’S ALSO sometimes THE WORST feeling to work for someone when you have things on your mind or things you want to change and you feel undervalued or unseen. 

Ya’ll - my heart is SO full after spending time with Christina Matteucci. I am begging you to time block, whether you are a business owner or someone working on someone&apos;s business, to LEAN IN this episode.

Christina is A PASSIONATE POWERHOUSE who EVERYONE needs in their life, whether you need an event designer, a speaker or a coach. She is chock-full of wisdom and passion that no matter if you are a #1 or a #2 you NEED in your life. This episode is dedicated to my numbers twos: Jennie, Casey, Shadow and Stasia in addition to the force of a team I have behind me at Our DJ Rocks and Photobooth Rocks-  who I could NOT be doing life or business without right now. 

Let’s Lean In…

Bio
Executive Director of David Beahm Experiences, Christina Matteucci pioneers an integral role within the special event industry as Number Two to celebrity event designer David Beahm.  Now in her nineteenth year of collaboration with David, Christina has spent almost two decades skillfully executing unfathomably complex soirées all over the globe.

Christina credits her rigorous conservatory theater training at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts (2001) with her ability to conceive and produce lavish event experiences.  She also asserts that her finesse for the fantastic has been enhanced and honed through wholeheartedly embracing the position of Number Two—a role that has blossomed into an esteemed symbiotic partnership with David.  By exemplifying the time-honored model of apprenticeship and mentorship, Christina cultivates a robustly innovative workplace that thrives on deeply rooted collaboration; as such, she is a champion of egalitarian business principles.

Her bohemian theories on how we define professional success earn her coveted speaking opportunities within the global special events industry, inspiring and captivating audiences with her no-nonsense, comedic, and self-effacing style.  On November 23, 2019, Christina had the honor of speaking alongside Eliza Reid, First Lady of Iceland, at TEDxBeaconStreet, Boston.  

By virtue of her particular aptitude for team building, Christina is uniquely qualified to counsel both emerging professionals embarking on their career paths (thus earning her the moniker TeucciMama: Mother Hen of the Number Twos) as well as CEOs who value synergistic, cooperative corporate cultures.

      <title>Episode 18 - Unchaperoned: What Are you Grateful For?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Hey Friends! 
 
Welcome to another UNCHAPERONED segment of the Love Lead Excel Podcast. 

This is going to be ME running wild with my unchaperoned thoughts sharing one on one with you.
 
Today I want to talk to you about Gratitude. Are you like me at all and you find yourself being like WTF is going on in this world? Why are situations or people constantly coming at me? - Like constantly stones being thrown at you? Or do you have people in your life that are a constant form of negativity? I ask myself WHY? And I think one of the things it boils down to is lack of gratitude.

I also believe, especially after hearing from Jonathan and him telling the story of GTTFAM, it’s so important to what he said about protecting your peace and I think gratitude can help with that. 
 
let’s talk about it! 


In this episode, I discuss and ask:
How to Practice Gratitude
Why Adjusting your Expectations is Key
Other ways you can put out positivity in the world

      <title>Episode 17 - Get the Fck From Around Me with Johnathan Simmons</title>
      <description><![CDATA[From my heart to yours, WELCOME to the Love Lead Excel Podcast. I’m Kristin Wilson. 

YOU are going to adore Johnathan Simmons as much as I do. From humble beginnings in a single family home to being homeless in college to defining his own version of success and having the simple mindset to protect your peace with the phrase GET THE FCK FROM AROUND ME. 

John lives by a simple call to action of dream, think, do. He fully believes that anything is possible if you are willing to put a bit of sweat equity into your dreams. 

Most know John as “DJ Woo Pig” from his DJ and production education channel on YouTube, where his work has amassed nearly 2 million views and over 20k subscribers.

He IS such AN INSPIRATION TO ME and has proven that you can DO ANYTHING. Please help me welcome Johnathan Simmons with Crown Entertainment Group. 

About Johnathan: Johnathan Simmons has had a passion for music and creation since he was a young child. While in college, he took his skills and rhythm as a jazz drummer and applied it to his roommates' old turntables and Crown Entertainment was born. John has since transformed his college dorm DJ service into a multi-op event and production company. Along with his dedicated staff members, Crown Entertainment Group helps to produce over 300 events annually. John lives by a simple call to action of dream, think, do. He fully believes that anything is possible if you are willing to put a bit of sweat equity into your dreams. Most know John as “DJ Woo Pig” from his DJ and production education channel on YouTube, where his work has amassed nearly 2 million views and over 20k subscribers. Away from the business, John enjoys quality time with his wife of 7 years (Savannah) and their son (Roman) spent cruising Arkansas backroads with the windows down and the music up.

In this episode, we discuss:
From Being Homeless to his Own Boss
His encounter with Racism
How to Dream, Think & Do
Protecting your Peace

      <title>Episode 16 - Unchaperoned: Laundry Detergent + Moderation</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Hey Friends! 
 
Welcome to another UNCHAPERONED segment of the Love Lead Excel Podcast. This is going to be ME running wild with my unchaperoned thoughts sharing one on one with you.
 
It’s funny how you can be shown HUGE life lessons in the small things in life. Recently I was in the kitchen doing my morning routine and had started a load of sheets. I thought to myself, let me google how to properly wash clothes and the amount of detergent I need to wash them.  Oh boy did that have me mind blown. 

Instead of texting every single one of you, I decided to go UNCHAPERONED and talk about it. Here is my life lesson in all things moderation and how much laundry detergent to use. 

In this episode, I discuss and ask:
How Much Laundry Detergent Do you Need
Why is Moderation the Key of Life
Finding Joy in the Small things, but do it with Glee not Guilt

      <title>Episode 14 - Unchaperoned Dreams and Goals</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Hey Friends! 
 
Whether you’ve been avid listeners or this is your first episode - THANK YOU for joining me.
 
I’ve always done interviews with thought leaders, industry friends, and people in my life. And I have LOVE LOVE LOVED THEM, but sometimes I get so inspired or fired up and really just want to talk one on one.
 
As we continue to move into the next season of the podcast and 2022, I’d like to introduce a new format into the mix called…

UNCHAPERONED

This is going to be ME running wild with my unchaperoned thoughts sharing one on one with you.
 
I want to talk about my FAVORITE SEASON of the year. It is one of my absolute favorite times because it’s a time to celebrate gratitude, reflection, and then dreaming about what the future could look like and setting goals to get us there. 
 
Stay with me friends and let's keep doing business and life together in 2022!

In this episode, I discuss and ask:
End of Year Planning
Creating Goals in the 7 Areas of Life
Your Personal Success Paradigm: When and where do you feel your best?

      <title>Episode 13 - The Success Paradigm with Andrea Eppolito</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Andrea Eppolito has dedicated her life to celebrating life, luxury, and above all else, love. Born on Long Island, Andrea spent her teenage years moving between New York and Los Angeles. She relocated to Las Vegas in 1994. Andrea attended the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Hospitality. After working with resorts, restaurants, and nightlife  venues throughout the city, Andrea opened her wedding planning and event design business in 2011.</p><p>Andrea is renowned for bending the universe to her will and, in doing so, creating events that are both timely and timeless. She believes in lush, romantic details and offers an over-the-top interpretation of a  client’s worldview. As such, Andrea is sought after by couples and corporations from around the globe. She specializes in producing events for those who care deeply about atmosphere, transformation, and the art of storytelling. Her client list is intimate and exclusive.</p><p>A highly sought-after keynote speaker, Andrea travels the world encouraging businesses to tell better stories, operate with an intentional compass, and attract their ideal clientele. Her weekly podcast allows her to discuss the struggles and successes of our industry, while her consulting and mentoring business focuses on developing sales and marketing strategies for other wedding professionals.</p><p>Andrea’s first coffee table book, Luxury Weddings Las Vegas, showcases the beautiful weddings she has produced. The book is a love letter to her city and cements Las Vegas as a legitimate choice for couples planning opulent destination weddings.</p><p>Andrea is also the author of Redefine Your Wedding Business, a guide that helps wedding professionals build the business they want, wherever they are. Committed to education and the elevation of the wedding industry, Andrea offers online courses for wedding planners and event professionals.</p><p>In 2015 a client asked Andrea to provide a report detailing the scope of work that was completed during wedding production. Rather than simply write a memo, Andrea presented her work in the form of a magazine. Several thousand digital shares later, The Wedding Editorialist was born. Based on the belief that every love story deserves to be told, The Wedding Editorialist helps couples and companies create custom magazines in both print and digital media. This project has been a labor of love and allows Andrea and her editorial team to tell more stories in an ever-changing world.</p><p>Called “vibrant, chic, and impeccably organized,” Andrea is a voracious reader who devours business books, biographies, true crime, and romance novels. She loves doing absolutely anything with her husband and children, especially cooking at home, binge-watching shows, and traveling. Her family is the great love of her life and the accomplishment of which she is most proud.</p><p> </p>

      <itunes:summary>From my heart to yours, WELCOME to the Love Lead Excel Podcast. I’m Kristin Wilson. 

I have a few questions; What is success to you? How do you begin to even define it? What does it mean to celebrate life and love? Does it mean when you live life on purpose, it’s simple and filled with love?  

In this episode, I chat with Andrea Eppilliot on exactly what to ask yourself to begin to create YOUR SUCCESS PARADIGM. 

From afar you’ll see Andrea as one of the most sought-after ultra-lux wedding planners in the US. But what I love most about her is her authenticity, transparency, and that she has lived her life with true purpose whether she knows it or not, since she was 12 years old. 

She carefully cultivates each and every relationship in her life, not only personally, but also professionally so that when it is time to bring a life celebration to fruition, it is with emotion, heart and intention. Let’s spend some time together today with someone I have truly enjoyed getting to know on a deeper level, Andrea Eppolito.

In this episode, we discuss:
What it means to celebrate life and love
What is success and how to define it with the Success Matrix
How to make a living while having a life

      <title>Episode 12 - Divine Appointments with JW Jaeger</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Welcome to Another Episode of the Love Lead Excel Podcast! 

Will Smith once said “Your Mission, Your Purpose and your Destiny will be tied to ONE thing - your gift” - so I ask you, friends, how do you realize what your gift truly is? My thought is, opening up your life to perspective. There’s this phrase that a friend of mine JW mentioned to me and it completely made me stop in my tracks. It is that NOTHING in life is a coincidence, it’s all about DIVINE appointments. 

JW has been passionate about music since he was 4 years old and his dad gave him a cassette tape and multiple boom boxes that he kept blowing the speakers out of. Growing up in a house filled with music, JW learned to love the music that was playing every night of the week.  JW is a second-generation entertainer and the proud son of one of Orlando's own - Bob Jaeger.

He served in the US Army for 3 years. He was a member of the USO touring band “USA Express” deploying to Iraq and Afghanistan to perform for thousands of US troops With Toby Keith, Chris Young. He then served in the 82nd Airborne Division “All American Band” stationed at Fort Bragg, NC.

From drumming, to DJing and performing Nationwide, let’s dig into Divine Appointments with JW Jaeger. 

In this episode, we discuss:
The most heart racing, adrenaline pumping, resume building event  JW has ever done… in front of 120,000 people.
How being in the Army can mold you into a leader. 
What’s on your sticky note?
Divine appointments in life.

Why would you be a good fit for the Love. Lead. Excel Podcast?
Love - Lead - Excel to me - Isn't a motto or a life's phrase - It's a Lifestyle! Sharing with the world and being able to do so with you, Kristin is to be - one of the biggest compliments I could ever receive. When I think about what we're going to talk about, it fires me up and it also gives me a chance to reflect on the opportunities I've been given. There is NO chance you were there by mistake. Anything you do in life is worth doing the right way!

      <title>Episode 10 - Perseverance and Perspective</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of the Love Lead Excel podcast, we’re talking all things PERSEVERANCE AND PERSPECTIVE with Tamuel Cowart.

This past year was BY FAR our most challenging year; emotionally, strategically, physically, spiritually - I know you will all agree. We had a very strong start in the first quarter and I was on track to surpass one of the biggest goals of my career as a small business owner. Then came that fateful day in March. I had the daunting task of figuring out how to survive. No income and a team of 30 relying on me for guidance, a family whose daily life was changing, over 400+ brides who were angry, rightfully so, and a community and industry of people who everyone wanted answers from, but who had never been through this before, so there wasn’t an SOP for this.  LIke - this wasn't the vibe today people. I did NOT sign up for this. 

One of the people who has not only been there since day one, but was also there in the late night hours to help and also gain perspective was Tamuel Cowart. She is a POWERHOUSE. She is intelligent and creative and one of the very first people I met in this industry. Aside from founding RW Events and RW Style, she also runs two amazing venues here in Orlando. There’s a saying I found on IG that goes, “I am the woman you don't find twice” and SHE is that woman. Let’s dive in with Tamuel. 


In this episode, we discuss:
What Tamuel’s theme song is
What are your top tips for persevering in any situation?
What do you believe are the characteristics it takes to make it in the events and wedding industry - not only as an employee but also a business owner?

      <title>Episode 9 - Fruition</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of the Love Lead Excel podcast, we’re talking all things FRUITION with Dawson High

“Fruition is the point of which a project or plan comes to life.” At this point in business, I had had the most rewarding yet overwhelming year yet in business. 

We officially launched the Our DJ Rocks “DJ University” training program which in the last 12 months we have revamped, updated and are about to launch an online digital version. 
We managed 800-900 events this year, and I wore all the hats - Director of Sales + Marketing, CEO, and DJ of over 50 of my own events
I hit TWO entrepreneurial milestones: making it to $1mil in sales, and being able to finally offer health insurance to our team.

So today, I’ve brought on special guests Dawson High.  If you don’t know him, Dawson starting DJing when he was 10, and was handling his own ish by the time he was 13. Some call him baby goat, some call him DJ Dawson High, I call him D. This kid has blown me out of the water with the way he sets his mind to a project and then makes it happen. This year alone he was the on-stage DJ for Midwest DJs Live and is going to be a performing artist for DJ Collective. I’m so excited that he’s joining me today, so we can discuss the ins and outs of bringing things to life when you set your mind to it. 

In this episode, we discuss:
How to get ish done to bring your goals to life
How to transpire a want to a need
What does success look like
What can I do to help bring my dreams to life?

      <title>Episode 8 - Vision</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In this episode of the Love Lead Excel podcast, we’re talking all things VISION with Mitch Taylor

“If you dont know where you are going, any path will take you there. “From Alice in Wonderland. 

This really sank in with me, because at this point in business - I kept saying yes to so many things that didn't matter and then didn't have time or energy to do things that didmatter. I needed to create a clear path for myself and my team. 

This was the year I made decisions that aligned only with our company Mission and Vision. 

Joining me in this episode is Mr Heart-First himself - Mitch Taylor. He is a 25+ veteran of the Mobile DJ Industry, and he also produces educational content for DJs across the US. He launched the Sales for Event Pros Workshops and has also released a new book - Sales for Event Pros. On top of all of that and running his own successful company in Michigan, Mitch also helps plan the Midwest DJs Live conference each year and is also on the board for the DJ Think Tank. Welcome one of my dear friends and silent mentor Mitch Taylor!

In this episode, we discuss:
Do you feel like relationships have any impact on helping you achieve your vision?
What it takes to move from a single op to a multi-talent company and how to make an impact?
The #1 Required MUST read for everyone 18 and older!
The Success Nugget everyone needs who is running a business. 
When we run into an wall that is stopping us from reaching our vision, how to overcome that.

      <title>Episode 7 - Values</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Today’s Topic is all about VALUES. In this year of our business we were growing so fast, I almost couldn't keep up! The questions kept coming - Who are we? Where do we want to go next? How are we going to get there? 

It was important to define these core values so that we had direction to blaze our trail.

Joining me today is the esteemed Shannon Tarrant. What she doesnt know is I’m one of her biggest fans- and there have been times she has pushed me and others beyond what we thought we could be, because of her ability to coach, teach, and see the best in people. She truly has a gift. 

Shannon Tarrant is on a mission to help wedding and event industry businesses shake things up. A professional go-getter, she has a distinctive 15-year background in developing wedding and event companies into the top of their local market. As an off-site caterer and then resort venue manager, she developed both companies into local powerhouses by following the same system for success. 
 
Shannon is a highly regarded coach and facilitator, working alongside vendors of every category while running her own wedding business - Wedding Venue Map, a Central Florida resource helping couples and planners to find the perfect venue. Shannon tells it like it is, whether you’re ready for it or not.

Joining me today is the esteemed Shannon Tarrant. What she doesnt know is I’m one of her biggest fans- and there have been times she has pushed me and others beyond what we thought we could be, because of her ability to coach, teach, and see the best in people. She truly has a gift. 

Shannon Tarrant is on a mission to help wedding and event industry businesses shake things up. A professional go-getter, she has a distinctive 15-year background in developing wedding and event companies into the top of their local market. As an off-site caterer and then resort venue manager, she developed both companies into local powerhouses by following the same system for success. 
 
Shannon is a highly regarded coach and facilitator, working alongside vendors of every category while running her own wedding business - Wedding Venue Map, a Central Florida resource helping couples and planners to find the perfect venue. Shannon tells it like it is, whether you’re ready for it or not.

      <itunes:summary>In this episode of the Love Lead Excel podcast, we’re talking about one of my favorite topics: CULTURE! 

I’ve brought on special guests DJ Gaby + DJ Jennie and our Office Manager Casey with Our DJ Rocks, because they have seen it all. Gaby has been with for over half of our existence, and Jennie came on about a year after her.  Casey joined the team almost 3 years ago, and between the 2of them they have each seen the many phases we’ve gone through in this business, as well as the power of culture and team. I’d love for you to get the RAW perspective from three people who I love and admire who were on the other end.

In this episode, we discuss:
What is culture?
In insider&apos;s perspective on the Our DJ Rocks culture from 3 points of view. 
Failure points when it comes to culture and team
How to communicate as a team and find a rhythm
What does LOVE LEAD EXCEL mean to you

After over 10 years of working with the most prestigious designers in bridal fashion, these two stylists opened The Bridal Finery - specializing in wedding dresses for off the rack and made to order - a new way of bridal shopping. From building teams and businesses, to bridal fashion in dresses, veils, hairpieces and jewelry, these ladies KNOW that FOCUS is one of the things it takes to succeed. 

In this episode, we discuss:
What keeps you going during down moments?
As business partners and friends, how do you nurture that delicate balance?
How do you keep balance while staying focused on business goals?
What is the first thing I need to do as a business owner if my list is overwhelming?
How do I know when the right time to hire is? 
What does LOVE LEAD EXCEL mean to you?

      <itunes:summary>In the very first episode of the Love Lead Excel podcast, we’re talking all things GROWTH. 

I’ve brought on someone near and dear to myself and the business -  Craig Brooks. Craig and his team at Clarity Creative now run the Our DJ Rocks and Photobooth Rocks digital marketing. He also used to own and operate a private event DJ company here locally in Orlando, as well as a bomb of a trivia company, Tasty Trivia. And he also happens to work with Mainline Marketing, which is the sole ad agency for QSC Audio - the brand that I am a marketing partner of. So needless to say, Craig has helped in MANY facets to growing both our company brands and my personal brand, and he has an incredible perspective in the industry locally and nationally. 

In this episode, we discuss:
What core pieces do you think need to exist for someone or a company before GROWTH can happen?
What made you stick around even through the rough times, scaling up and down as needed?
What advice would you give me to strive for more and lead in my area of expertise?
What do you think it was that made your business work and become successful? 
What tips would you give to someone who is wanting to grow their business?
What does LOVE LEAD EXCEL mean to you?
