Dr. Khush Cooper holds a doctorate in social work. Her journey is quite relevant to those in the non-profit sector, the conscious capitalism movement, or anyone who has ever struggled with making a living and wanting to do good. You'll hear how her view of money changed when she began to understand that money is an exchange of help, rather than a necessary evil. This episode's closing segment is from a membership webinar on the subject of 'indifference of the marketplace'. You'll hear Co-Founder Kirkland Tibbels address the State of Mind of an Ambitious Adult. In her interview, Dr. Cooper refers to "passively waiting rather than ambitiously transacting," and this talk underscores the difference between "most people" and those who act with Ambition.

Siblings Laura and David Senior Garcia hold senior roles with Equilibria, the Personality Diversity Experts chosen to coordinate 10,000 volunteers for the 2017 Super Bowl. Their company works worldwide to help people embrace and leverage diversity to elevate personal, professional, and organizational performance. You'll hear how studying transactional competence has improved their company's focus and helped bring conscious awareness to a diverse world. In today's guru talk, Kirkland Tibbels and John Patterson address how a transactional approach helps people understand the fundamentals of coordinated action.

Joanna Burgraf is a Chicago-based Senior Lead for an award-winning Creative Services team managing ten brands at Enova International, a company using technology to develop innovative financial products. Having endured an expensive journey to consider a career change, she found that to follow your passion was the worst piece of advice she'd ever gotten. You'll hear how this fashionable, but naive empowerment slogan had shifted her focus away from working on being a valued cooperative member of a larger team - to the self-focused, navel-gazing, isolating habit of finding one’s true "Self." After the break, we'll hear a Guru Talk by co-founder Kirkland Tibbels. This talk originally aired earlier this year - and we can't study it enough. Recorded in May of 2015 this webinar introduces three different orientations to action; these are Self-Action, Inter-Action, and Trans-Action. As we are the leading business education in trans-actional competence this segment is designed to illustrate the naivety and danger of S

Recording artists, Isaac and Thorald Koren (The Kin) got everything they asked for; record deals, international notoriety, playing big arenas (touring with Coldplay, PINK, Bon Jovi, and Rod Stewart) — but hadn't quantified what to wish for or how to transact for it. Naively assuming their talent, passion, and fame would eventuate into their personal and financial satisfaction they confronted a sea of indifference and inventoried their lessons to help others. They launched the Alchemy of Creative Expression or ACE, developing a method to help the talented musician, artist, or executive unleash their unique voice and turn their talent into gold. In our guru talk, we'll hear co-founder Kirkland Tibbels address the importance of both knowing your aims - and transacting accordingly.

Ana Athanasiu lives in the San Francisco Bay area of California and is an internet pioneer who had a vibrant career in telecommunications and software development. Best known for the work she did on teams at Sun Microsystems in the mid-eighties — they invented XML — adding speed and usability to internet browsers. Able to retire in 2002, she's spent the last 14 years raising kids and supporting business executives, local non-profit endeavors, and sole-proprietorships toward market and financial solvency. She also co-manages her family’s real estate and stock speculation engagements. She has much to say about the asset and liability of personality traits that offer both extraordinary value and harsh lessons. She is now studying Transactionalism with Influence Ecology and is working on advanced degrees in ethics and behavioral economics and data science. Our guru talk addresses the asset and liability aspect of Transactional Behavior — where our greatest assets, if not tended to, can also be our greatest liabil

Sean Gillespie is a successful artist who creates award-winning abstract sculptures from his one-man studio in Denver, Colorado. His work can be found in exclusive galleries, national juried shows, and in corporate installations across the United States. Influence Ecology's members include business and creative professionals from all over the world; we educate not only executives and entrepreneurs but also artists, designers, musicians, writers, and filmmakers -- and today perhaps we'll tackle the question: How do you make a living as an artist? It might be common to assume that artists make terrible business people, yet the same can be true in many professions. In all cases, what is required is transactional competence: knowing how to construct a recurrent business offer that meets your individual aims for work, career, and money. You'll hear Sean's journey and, how a little a study -- goes a long way. In today's guru talk, we listen in on a Membership Webinar to hear Kirkland Tibbels explain the nature of
