Change ChampionsBehind the scenes: scholarships, partnerships, and building slowly on purposeIn this behind-the-scenes episode of Change Champions, we share what we’ve been working on inside the business over the past few months. And what it’s really taken to do it well.We talk openly about three things we’ve just gone through for the first time together: running a fully funded scholarship and live event, launching our first long-term partnership pilot, and carefully expanding the team using people from within our own ecosystem.This isn’t a highlight reel. It’s a practical look at the time, focus, emotional weight, and trade-offs that come with...

It comes from doing, noticing, and adjusting.This episode is for coaches, consultants, and facilitators who feel stuck trying to “figure it out” before taking action — and who want a more honest, human path to building momentum.You’ll hear why imperfection isn’t a li...

2026-01-1427 minChange ChampionsYour Niche Is Not a Limitation It’s Leverage | Ep 31When you first went solo, you probably thought it would mean more freedom. But somewhere along the way, “being your own boss” started to feel more like working harder for less — lurching from one big project to the next, stuck in that feast-and-famine cycle, and trying to be everything to everyone just to keep the pipeline alive.In this episode of Change Champions, Ped and Riley unpack what they call the freedom paradox: the belief that keeping your options open is what keeps you free, when in reality it’s often what keeps you stuck. D...
2025-11-2627 minChange ChampionsWhy No One Gets What You Do | Ep 30In this episode, Ped and Riley tackle the real reason so many great coaches and consultants struggle with marketing: it’s not a strategy problem, it’s a language problem. Through personal stories and client experiences, they unpack how to move from “invisible” to “understood” by seeing your business through your clients’ eyes. From mirror moments to “flashlight vs. headlight” marketing, they show why clarity and conversation always beat volume and vanity.
2025-11-1223 minChange ChampionsThe 5 Questions That Turn Conversations Into Clients | Ep 29In this episode, Ped and Riley tackle one of the biggest time-wasters for coaches and consultants — friendly conversations that never convert. They share the five simple yet powerful questions that transform casual chats into meaningful, client-building conversations. Through real examples and insights from their own experience, they show how to shift from “relationship building” to structured, intentional dialogue that deepens trust and drives business growth.
2025-10-2922 minChange ChampionsLearn to Sell and Never Be Stuck Again | Ep 28In this episode of Change Champions, Riley and Pedram take on one of the most misunderstood skills in business: sales. They dismantle the myths that keep coaches, consultants, and service professionals stuck—like the idea that sales is only for pushy extroverts or manipulative personalities. Instead, they reveal how sales, when reframed as service, becomes the key to confidence, control, and career freedom. With stories from their own journeys and practical shifts anyone can make, Ped and Riley show that learning to sell is less about slick pitches and more about creating real options in your work and life.

2025-10-0827 minChange ChampionsThe Lie That Keeps Coaches Broke | Ep 27Ped and Riley tackle the lie that keeps many coaches broke: thinking the fix is to work harder, shout louder, or charge less. They show how “curse of knowledge” and feature-heavy proposals create admiration without commitment, then walk through a four-part offer that clients can instantly say yes to. Ped shares how reframing a program from modules to outcomes turned a struggler into a premium offer without changing the actual delivery. You’ll leave with a simple structure to shape your brilliance into something clients understand—and buy.
2025-10-0121 minChange ChampionsThe Real Reason You Aren’t Getting More Clients | Ep 26Ped and Riley puncture the industry lie that the “perfect offer” attracts clients on its own. Ped shares how a six-month drought in 2019 humbled him into building a real pipeline instead of waiting on referrals. Riley walks through why common “fixes” (new branding, funnels, paid ads, mass outreach) either don’t fit most solo businesses or demand resources they don’t have—and offers a simpler path: have strategic conversations that surface real demand, then track it. The result is confidence, consistency, and control over your income.
2025-09-1718 minChange ChampionsTired of Discovery Calls That Go Nowhere? This Is Why | Ep 25In this episode of Change Champions, co-hosts Ped and Riley pull back the curtain on why even great offers often get ignored—and what to do about it. They unpack the silent conversion killer that causes discovery calls to go nowhere: a lack of relevance in your message. If your audience is still wondering, "Is this for me?"—you've already lost the sale. Using relatable stories, sharp metaphors, and their Big Five Framework, Ped and Riley show you how to make your messaging land with clarity, urgency, and emotional connection. You’ll learn how to answer the three unspoken questi...
2025-09-0318 minChange ChampionsReferrals Aren’t a Strategy — They’re a Lottery Ticket | Ep 24In this energizing episode of Change Champions, co-hosts Ped and Riley expose “the content trap” — the frustrating cycle of publishing value-packed posts that still fail to convert into paying clients. Drawing on Ped’s own months of “performing to an invisible audience” and Riley’s lighthouse metaphor, they explain why visibility alone isn’t enough. Instead, content should act as kindling that sparks authentic outreach, the real driver of trust and sales conversations. Listeners hear how one client’s responses jumped 6-7× once he paired posts with personal messages. The duo break down the trap, the mindset that feeds it, and the simple...
2025-08-2021 minChange ChampionsWhen Energy Isn’t Enough: How to Make Sessions That Get you rebooked | Ep 23In this episode of Change Champions, Ped and Riley unpack a painful but common experience for coaches, consultants, trainers, and facilitators: delivering a high-energy, well-received workshop… that doesn’t lead to more business. Ped shares a candid story of a dazzling session with a Big Five firm that never resulted in a callback—and why. Together, they explore the trap of relying on entertainment and engagement without designing for outcomes and ROI. You’ll learn the six core building blocks of any workshop that can turn your facilitation from “fun day out” into “strategic asset”—and get clients rebooking you again and agai...
2025-08-0631 minChange ChampionsWhy Passion Doesn’t Pay (And What Does) | Ep 22In this Change Champions episode, co-hosts Ped and Riley bust the “follow your passion and the clients will come” myth that keeps many coaches, consultants, trainers and facilitators stuck. Through Riley’s $63k leap that came from simply asking better questions and Ped’s hard-won lesson that more certifications don’t equal more sales, they show why enthusiasm alone is a megaphone that repels the middle-80 % of buyers. The duo lay out a mirror-first approach—listen before you pitch, translate expertise into specific, measurable outcomes and chase relevance, not generic visibility—so your offers practically sell themselves. Expect practical mindset flips...

Drawing from Ped’s eye-opening story of taking 3 a.m. client calls from a San Francisco basement, the duo explores how being “technically self-employed” often still means being overworked and under-leveraged. They discuss why staying stuck in freelancer mode keeps you trapped, and how shifting from “being the business” to building a business requires mindset shifts, asset creati...
2025-07-0925 minChange ChampionsWhy Smart Consultants Stay Stuck (hint: it’s not your skills) | Ep 20In this episode of Change Champions, co-hosts Ped and Riley dig into a counterintuitive truth: it’s not your skills that are keeping you stuck—it’s trying to do too much. They explore how “abundance thinking” can disguise a fear of commitment, leading smart coaches and consultants to stay broad, overwhelmed, and burned out. Through personal stories, client examples, and sharp metaphors (from closets to buffets), they show why narrowing your niche doesn’t limit you—it liberates you. If you're tired of doing everything for everyone and still not gaining traction, this episode is a must-listen.
2025-06-2524 minChange ChampionsSelling Without Sleaze: Why Connection Beats Conversion| Ep 19In Episode 19 of the Change Champions podcast, co-hosts Ped and Riley tackle a feeling familiar to many coaches, consultants, trainers, and facilitators: why does selling feel so gross—even when you're doing all the “right” things? Drawing from their own journeys and client stories (like Lori, who went from "doing fine" to fully booked two quarters ahead), they explore why traditional sales strategies often feel out of sync with purpose-driven professionals. The episode introduces the concept of “insider selling”—a trust-first approach that replaces pitch-slapping with genuine, value-led conversations. You’ll learn how to stop guessing what your market wants, avoid t...

Then Ghost You | Ep 18In this episode of Change Champions, co-hosts Ped and Riley dive deep into the critical but often overlooked moment between a client’s verbal “yes” and the actual payment — the gap where too many deals quietly fall apart. Drawing from Ped’s hard-won lessons as a learning and development consultant and Riley’s expertise as a COO and systems builder, they unpack why the problem isn’t in your sales call but in your onboarding process. They share personal stories, client mishaps, and actionable strategies to help coaches, consultants, trainers, and facilitators close that gap with clarity, confidence, and systems that s...
2025-06-0420 minChange ChampionsThe Hidden Reason Your Referrals Stopped Rolling In | Ep 17In this episode of Change Champions, co-hosts Ped and Riley pull back the curtain on a quiet crisis facing many experienced coaches and consultants. The moment when referrals dry up, and the usual tactics stop working. They unpack why relying on your old network can keep you stuck, how the “Curse of Knowledge” sabotages your messaging, and why real conversations—not funnels—are the key to building a high-ticket offer that practically sells itself. If you’ve ever felt like your expertise isn’t translating into consistent sales, this episode will help you reframe your next move and reignite momentum.
2025-05-2820 minChange ChampionsWant More Clients? Start Conversations, Not Campaigns I Ep 16In this inaugural reformat of the Change Champions podcast, co-hosts Ped and Riley dive deep into a conversation that every coach and consultant needs to hear: how to sell without feeling salesy. If you’ve ever hit "publish" on a post and crossed your fingers for leads—or avoided outreach because it felt awkward—this episode is your permission slip to rethink everything. Ped and Riley unpack why traditional outreach feels gross, what to do instead, and how a mindset of service (not sales) leads to real opportunities. Plus, they share behind-the-scenes stories from their own journeys and client wins t...

Shootin' the Bull with Tom SnowWhiskey RebellionTom Snow is joined by his old college roommate Riley Mcghee for a conversation about the first uprising against the United States Government.
Correction: The whiskey tax was nine cents per gallon. Distillers could also pay a flat fee, which was beneficial for larger distillers that produced large volumes of whiskey.

The Venture Life with Riley McGhee#16 How traveling solo will change your mindset with Tara DonninoTara’s story is both inspiring and educational... and potentially terrifying if you’re not big on taking risks.
We talk about how she went from playing pool nearly every night of the week, with the hopes of perhaps even playing professionally, to contemplating a move to an entirely different country with no plans for a return flight back home.
In that time span we cover relationship crossroads, how to manage the logistics of traveling solo, pushing against “The American Dream”, safety concerns as a female and even what you’ll probably be thinking about when you’re...

In fact, you might actually have a better chance winning the lottery, but that ultimately depends on what your definition of “making it” looks like.
Is it lots of money? Fancy cars? Traveling the world? Living your passion?
If it’s money and cars you might be fighting an uphill battle. But if it’s the latter, you could be closer to the limel...

Most of us tend to stumble through life, jobs, and unforeseen circumstances that push us around until our paths eventually begin to take shape and make sense.
Addictions counselor and founder, Charles Catchings, knows this better than most as his personal experience with abuse, drugs and alcohol, and mental illness could have derailed him from the path he’s on now.
Instead, rather than a cry...

From barely getting into college to taking a grenade in combat, it’s fair to say John has had his share of road bumps.
After being injured fighting in Afghanistan, John was unexpectedly medically retired and left desperately searching for what his next steps might be.
A chance encounter with the future co-founder of Elite Meet led to scaling a si...

Brittany has a masters degree in Kinesiology with a specialization in sport psych from C...

We spent the night in A&E with our daughter as she was sick all night, which as you can imagine was a bag of fun. Despite operating on 3hrs of sleep in 48hrs I jumped on a call with Riley McGhee, King of the Ops of The Unconventionalists and decided to record it. Oh, and he had no idea I was doing this btw, so what happened next was gold.
