You have a favorite Matthew Lillard film or TV performance. It might be SLC Punk , the Scream franchise, Scooby Doo , Hackers , She's All That , Twin Peaks: The Return , or the new Stephen King and Mike Flanagan movie The Life of Chuck . He's been working in Hollywood for over 30 years, and has a reputation for being kind to fans. But connecting with people is exactly why he got into acting as a kid — the community that comes from putting on a play together and hashing it all out at the diner afterward. It's what drew him to Dungeons & Dragons, and then a spirits company celebrating fantasy and horror fandoms. Lillard joined Tinfoil Swans to talk about growing up not fitting in, the thrill of finding your people, the punk rock high school movie he directed, his wedding cheese wheel, and so much more.

[0:12] Now that you've turned your video into audio for your podcast, and you've learned about turning that audio into a transcript to be used in multiple different ways, what else can we do with that text?
[0:28] Well today here on episode number 219 of the In a Weekend Podcast, we're going to talk about turning text into quotes.
[0:39] Are you ready to dive in?
[0:42] If you're new around here, my name is Yong Pratt. I'm the Creator of the In a Weekend Series of classes where we help people just like you to simplify, to automate, and to leverage the often hidden assets in your business quickly and easily.
[1:02] One of the most often overlooked assets, inside, any business are kids - in your family or your neighbors kids.
[1:12] Kids can definitely play a really critical role in helping you leverage your business in a big way. And you can be a mentor to them and show them the possibilities that exist for them now in this digital age.
[1:28] Today we're talking about turning that transcript that we created back in episode, 216, and pulling out some quotes.
[1:39] Why would we do this?
[1:41] Well, being able to quote yourself and to quote your guests really differentiates you in the marketplace. I'm sure that you've seen lots of quotes in your social media feeds, and they're often attributed to really famous people - whether they're authors or speakers or luminaries. they're attributed to other people.
[2:03] Being able to quote yourself and your guests, really elevates you to a different level. And it demonstrates that you have interesting things to say and people should pay attention to you.
[2:16] Am I right?
[2:18] You're all creating amazing content for your businesses and in this series all about Multiplying Your Message, we're really talking about ways you can use one piece of content in different capacities, so that you can really reach people on different levels.
[2:36] We started the series with creating a video.
[2:39] We turned that video into audio to use on things like your podcast.
[2:43] We turned your audio into a transcript, which you can use in many different ways, including closed captioning on your videos as well as a blog, and a book.
[2:56] Now today, we're talking about really just taking a few moments, going through those transcripts, and pulling out quotes.
[3:06] Now if this is not something that you actively want to do, this is something your kiddos can absolutely do it for you.
[3:13] In fact, both of my daughters do this for me in my business, as well as doing it for other people in theirs. They're going through their transcripts, cleaning them up to use on websites and they're also cleaning them up and pulling out interesting tidbits. These quotes or quotable pieces of content can be used in multiple different ways.
[3:40] Let me give you some practical examples.
[3:43] You can go through and pull up quotes from yourself or your guests and you can post them as text posts across social media.
[3:51] You can also put them in places like your email signature so every time someone gets an email from you, they see an interesting quote from you or a guest the how on your show.
[4:03] You can put them on your website as kind of call out or stand out text to really give people a sense of what you have to offer, and how much you have to offer.
[4:15] Pulling out these text quotes has so many ways that you can use them inside of your business.
[4:21] I cannot wait to see how you're going to using your quotes.
[4:26] I'd love for you to post your quotes over on Instagram and then tag me @theyongpratt so I can see the quotes that you and your guests are creating and sharing with the world.
[4:41] So the takeaway today is:
[4:43] Number one. We've taken one singular piece of content and turned it into two multiple. Today's idea of pulling out quotes is one of those ways to multiply your own message.
[4:57] Number two: This is a really quick and easy tip that your kids can absolutely help you in creating. Empower them by showing them how to use some of this technology.
[5:10] I will link up all of the previous episodes in the Multiply Your Message series on the show notes for today's post over at YongPratt.com/219 so you can learn about all of the tools that I use to create these many pieces of content.
[5:32] Stay tuned for next week's episode where we're going to dive into turning your text into an audiogram - a cool graphic video. A little mini clip of those quotes that you can share on social media.
[5:50] I look forward to catching you all next week. Cheers, my friends.

0:00 Do you ever feel compelled to rush throughout your day to get more stuff done? What about hustling when you know you don't even need to do that? If you've experienced either of these, you're gonna want to lean in and turn up the volume on today's episode because our guest, Savanna Schiavo is going to help us ditch the hustle and reprogram the rush. 1:09 About Savanna Schiavo 2:25 Savanna’s life before becoming a life and confidence coach. 5:55 Why hustle and rush often creep into our lives and how conditioning, culture, and our internal desires inform these activities. “Hustle and rush are coming from a place of fear, and a place of lack. It's us acting out of fear of not-enoughness essentially.” - Savanna Schiavo 11:06 The correlation between fear of lack and confidence. 11:59 “When we're taking actions from the place of hustle and rush, it's blocking our confidence. It's blocking our creativity, our energy, our ability to flow, our ability to relax and tap into our gifts." - Savanna Schiavo 13:18 “To access more confidence in our business, we have to solve for the fear that's been driving our business. We need to look at the fear that is keeping us from feeling competent.” - Savanna Schiavo 14:45 How business owners can tap into and reprogram fear so it works for us and it becomes something positive versus staying stuck in that negative emotion. 15:32 What do you believe is keeping you going all the time? What are the beliefs that have been driving this behavior for me? 16:10 Common beliefs we don’t even notice that we think are true. 17:19 Question 2: Is this true? 19:30 Question 3: If you didn't believe this, what would be different about you? What you're doing is showing yourself, your subconscious mind, what would be available to you, if you decided to let go of this optional belief, and practice and open up to new beliefs. 22:02 How do we share ourselves, share our messages and attract the right people into our businesses using social media as a tool rather than a place to feel bad about ourselves? 23:11 On attracting the right people by being magnetic. 26:05 Savana’s favorite way to create content 27:10 “I let myself be the really imperfect human I am so people really get to see me. I think that's what is so powerful.” - Savanna Schiavo 29:06 Connect with Savanna 30:36 Grab Savanna’s journaling prompts inside the Arena of Awesome Group and share your biggest takeaways. ---------------------------- Ready to unearth the GOLD in your content?

0:00 Have you ever been scrolling through your newsfeed and you saw a post that made you literally stop your scroll? This happened to me recently, and I wanted to share why I stopped my scroll and why I decided to share the story with you on the podcast today. 1:23 Why Yong has been embracing the good, the bad, and the ugly in business and sharing it with you here on the podcast. 2:15 How learning her Human Design helped Yong share her real self more openly and authentically, even though the fear still rises. 2:55 The lesson Yong continues to lean-into and practice even after 20+ years as an entreprenener. 3:42 Why a recent zoom call with a prospective client didn’t turn out as planned. 5:08 The phrase that was the beginning of the end 6:11 The reason behind why Yong used that particular phrase on a live Q&A turned podcast episode 7:24 Yong’s evidence that proved the opposite of the conclusions of the prospective client 8:28 The reason Yong got defensive on the call and stopped listening to her gut. 9:24 Listen to the first podcast that came about as a result of this conversation at www.yongpratt.com/340 9:46 The post caused Yong to stop her scroll 10:25 Here is what Deb’s post read: "Stop trying to convince people to work with you. Instead, create content that attracts them to you." 11:19 The reason why Yong was trying to convince this client to work with her 11:46 Yong’s former people-pleasing ways 12:09 “It's okay just to be you. In being you, the right people are going to be attracted to you. And the reality is that not everyone will like you.” - Yong Pratt 13:03 “At the end of the day, it's our job to show up authentically, and create content that speaks to those that we want to serve and that also serves us in return. In this life, it's our obligation to speak our truth, to be our real selves, and to amplify everything that makes us awesome even if that means we don't get hired.” - Yong Pratt 13:39 “Those people that need convincing will never become a client of yours, or mine.” - Yong Pratt 14:05 The absolute Yong believes we all need to abolish 15:02 “Convincing someone to do something or invest in someone they don't believe in is a game that you can't win. Focus instead on serving, sharing your gifts and amplifying your awesome, even if not everyone will see or appreciate your awesomeness.” - Yong Pratt 15:40 “In this digital economy, there's no room for hiding. There's no room for being wishy washy. There's no room for accommodating others if that means you have to be someone else to make that happen.” - Yong Pratt 15:58 Just be you. 16:12 “It's time for the world to see you in all your awesome glory. It's time to embrace your you-ness 100%. It's time to appreciate your own gifts, your superpowers, your weird, so that you can truly and authentically Amplify Your Awesome™!” - Yong Pratt 16:34 Yong’s invitation to be a guest on the podcast and who she’s looking to interview. 17:29 If you’d like to be a guest on the podcast, head to www.YongPratt.com/interview 18:16 “Don't forget, it's not your job to convince people to work with you.

As someone that used to help other business owners create copious amounts of content to share on social media, I've learned that hiring out this task without having what I'm going to share with you today on the podcast, is a complete waste of money. 1:22 The inspiration for today’s episode 2:14 Yong’s cautionary tale of outsourcing and how it cost her a ton of time and money 2:59 What most service-based providers don’t do and how it’s a sign to look elsewhere 4:53 How not knowing what you don’t know could cost you more time and money in the long-run 5:12 The FIRST, and most important thing to look for when hiring out social media 6:58 If potential companies or individuals don’t provide THIS, run the other way 8:14 Why Yong doesn’t rely on social media and what she does instead 9:27 Don’t let social media managers talk you into THIS and what always gets overlooked 10:13 Offloading tasks like social media quickly is tempting + how the Myth of More derails so many 11:15 Yong’s 2 recommendations when hiring + how taking back your social media narrative is key to its success 13:12 Recap of the 2 Things you must do before delegating your social media 14:51 If you’re ready to unearth your own Content Goldmine and turn your content into endless supplies of social media content and cash, schedule a complimentary call with her now. 15:28 The 3-Step Framework Yong shared last week is a good starting point or hop on a call with Yong to talk about your content 16:45 “Don't get so wrapped up in offloading your social media that you forget about the vision of your business.” 18:26 Wanna D.I.G. into your own content and turn it into cash and endless content for social media?

0:03 As a transformation maker - a coach, a consultant, a course creator - you're creating an awful lot of content. Let me ask you a very candid question. Does all of that content equal cash for you? 0:23 Until fairly recently, Yong didn’t have a process for monetizing her content. Because she had so much content out there, there was not a lot of reason for people to actually hire her to help them do the things that I was teaching because they could go figure it all out for free. 1:21 What Yong did instead of Gary Vee Style Content Repurposing and how it turned into her signature 3-Step Framework to Turn Content into Cash 3:16 Today's episode topic: Yong’s three-step framework to turn your content [yep, that content you have already created] into cash. 4:14 Things you could do with all that extra cash, especially with summer right around the corner 4:55 Today’s topic isn’t one that’s talked about often which is exactly why you need to tune in and listen or watch the video version inside the Arena of Awesome 5:15 If you haven't listened to the Myth of More [#333] or Content Gold Mining versus the traditional Gary Vee style content repurposing [#334] be sure to do so as they lay the foundation for today’s episode 5:40 How Yong’s Nevada roots influenced and helped shape the idea of Content Gold Mining | The Low-Hanging Fruit for most content creators that has them flocking to Gary Vee Style Content Repurposing 7:36 One of the downfalls of the Gary Vee Content Repurposing Method 9:26 Surface level versus underground gold mining 10:53 The good news for you as a content gold miner 11:41 In order to turn your content into cash, all you have to do is D. I. G.. If you can remember that simple phrase, you literally have a way to monetize your content. 12:21 When you try out this framework in your business, be sure to share your questions, successes, and more with Yong at www.Yong Pratt.com/335 or inside the Arena of Awesome 13:17 Step 1 in the D.I.G. Framework: D = Discover + How to enlist the help of the kids in your life to help you complete this step 13:47 Need ideas on where to find kids and questions to ask to delegate the Discovery Process? Head to www.Yong Pratt.com/335 and ask Yong 14:49 One of the many benefits of joining Yong inside the Arena of Awesome 15:15 What the Discover phase entails | a simple tool you can use for yourself and Yong’s examples “The Discover Phase of the D.I.G. Framework allows you to see ALL your content gathered in one singular place. It’s often the first time my clients have seen just how much content they’ve actually created and it’s often an emotional experience in the best of ways.” - Yong Pratt 18:30 What you’ll likely notice during the Discovery Process 19:21 The reaction Yong’s clients have every.single.time. She takes them through this Discovery Process 20:56 An everyday example of what the Discovery Process is like 21:14 Step 1 in the D.I.G. Framework: I = Ideate and why it’s so exciting 22:15 How Yong used the Ideate Process to publish her first book 24:40 The focus of Yong’s first book 25:54 “I want to simplify the process, because that's one of my superpowers - Simplify the complicated.” - Yong Pratt 27:49 “In the ideation phase of the D.I.G Framework, there's no right or wrong. There's no one size fits all. You are unique. Your content is unique. And when you ideate and use your imagination to create, the possibilities are absolutely endless.” - Yong Pratt 28:22 Two additional ways Yong has used the Ideate Process herself and how you may be able to use it as well 29:27 “Because creation is not linear, you can take content that was once free and turn it into a paid offer that’s organized and delivered in a succinct way to get maximum results for your client.” - Yong Pratt 30:44 Inside Yong’s signature experience, Your Content Goldmine™, her six-month mentorship program coming up soon, you'll see bits and pieces of how she’s been able to ideate on her content.

0:01 I fell for it. Hook, line, and sinker. I was once drawn into the world where MORE became my motto. I wore it like a badge of honor. I was always striving to be more, do more and create more. I stopped listening to the many signs my body was telling me to slow down on my quest for more. Ignoring those signals, landed me in the hospital for test after test, and ultimately being sent home, hooked to a heart monitor for days. The allure of more is a strong force, and few make it out unscathed. In today's episode, I'm going to share how I've made it to the other side of more, and how I can help you do the same...but only if you're ready to embrace a world where less is the new norm? 1:44 Here at Amplify Your Awesome™, we help course creators and coaches ditch content overwhelm, tap into endless supplies of social media content, and make money from the content they've already created. 2:22 Today we're diving into Content Gold Mining versus "Gary Vee" style content repurposing. It's a question I've been getting a lot of lately, so I wanted to, well, set the record straight. 2:37 If you haven't already listened to the last episode number 333. The Myth of More, I highly recommend you press pause and take a listen to that tale before continuing with this episode at www.yongpratt.com/333 2:56 That time when Yong stood firmly in the belief that repurposing content was THE marketing strategy everyone needed to use… 3:21 How Yong used 3 content repurposing automation tools to replace her full-time Virtual Assistant 3:42 When I talk about content repurposing, or the traditional "Gary Vee" style content repurposing the way it's talked about these days, here's what I mean. “Traditional, “Gary Vee” Style Content Repurposing the act of taking a large piece of content and extracting smaller chunks which you can then share.” - Yong Pratt 4:18 Reason #1 for “Gary Vee” Style Content Repurposing Number one: it looks like you're everywhere. And number two: one can more easily establish their expertise by having more of these smaller pieces of content. 5:02 The reason why traditional “Gary Vee” style content repurposing is costing you money. 5:33 What you need in place to get hundreds of pieces of content 6:12 Opportunity #1 Yong experienced by promoting and advocating for the use of 3 content repurposing tools 6:33 Opportunity #2 Yong experienced by promoting and advocating for the use of 3 content repurposing tools 7:10 That time when things started to crumble before Yong’s eyes 7:31 Some reasons why traditional “Gary Vee” style content repurposing didn’t work for my clients 8:15 The Two Myths Yong uses to describe traditional "Gary Vee" style content repurposing 8:41 The weight of Yong’s 1000s upon 1000s of pieces of content and its opportunity cost 9:42 The lesson Yong learned from training Freebie seekers and the money it cost 10:21 That time when Yong has months and months of social media posts pre-scheduled turned into social media dormancy 10:59 What Yong discovered during that social media dormancy 11:50 The tool Yong used to FINALLY be able to see all her beautiful content 12:45 What Yong recommends you do today with all YOUR awesome content 13:26 The patterns that emerged and the questions Yong began to ponder regarding her discovery 14:28 “Instead of focusing on transforming one piece of content into hundreds using the “Gary Vee” method of content repurposing, Content Gold Mining™ offers you many ways to monetize all your beautiful content.” - Yong Pratt 15:05 “Right now, at this moment, you have endless gifts you could offer to the world and get paid for doing so.” - Yong Pratt 15:24 Questions to ponder and experiment with starting today… 15:32 What have you stopped creating content today? For a week? Or even a month? 15:38 What if you reinvested some of that creation time into unearthing the gold from your own content goldmine? 15:47 What if you could turn your massive amounts of content into endless streams of income? 15:55 What if you could tap into that Gold Mine every time you wanted or needed to: Take a family vacation Hire a virtual assistant to help you put systems in place so that you could sell all the content that you want unearth. Hire someone to clean your house, do yard work, prep your meals and so much more so that you could free up time to spend with those you love? What about retire your parents or spouse? And this is just the tip of the iceberg of what you could experience by mining for the gold in your content. 16:25 A testimonial Yong got after a Content Gold Mining Session with 1:1 Client, Susan" "Wow, just wow. Yong certainly knows her stuff and the potency of content, namely your content. She quickly and effortlessly walks you through the value of your current content. She offers amazing options on delivering your hard work and talent found in your content and monetizing them as you offer your prospects irresistible offers. It's an emotional moment, when you realize your content can be massaged into other platforms to help others you must work with Yong." 17:42 “Monetizing content is where traditional style or "Gary Vee" style content repurposing really misses the mark. Its real focus has been on visibility and exposure, neither of which is a guarantee for sales.” - Yong Pratt 18:42 Wouldn't your time be better spent monetizing the content you already have? 18:48 What if it didn't have to be either-or? 18:52 If you could create endless content for social media, and endless streams of income from the content you already have, without the overwhelm? Would you want to know how to do it? 19:06 You my friend absolutely deserve to have both! And the time to make it happen is now.

Content was more than plentiful, and everyone's cup runneth over. And the allure of more was all-consuming.” - Yong Pratt 4:01 Leaving the magical world...just for a little while 4:15 How the MORE-NESS she’d magicked did not fill her money bags as she was lured into believing 4:47 Feeling distraught, she began to wonder where she went wrong. 4:53 How following the rules and creating MORE ultimately led to LESS 5:22 How retreating back into her pre-content repurposing world, helped the overwhelmed business owner discover her real self once again 5:44 The shocking discovery the overwhelmed business owner made 6:20 How the overwhelmed business owner left overwhelmed behind and how she uses the lessons she’s learned to help others overcome their quest for MORE. 8:27 The Brave New World where business owners stand shoulder to shoulder embracing the power of LESS 8:58 A happily ever after that can be yours, too. 9:09 The Myth of More does not have to be your reality. You, too, can embrace a world where doing less and creating less is the true measure of success. 9:22 If you're ready to enter into this brave new world with me and tap into the goldmine, that is your content, I invite you to book a call with me at www.YongPratt.com/333 9:49 Cheers to busting the Myth of More...together!

Amplify Your Awesome™ with Yong Pratt
0:00 Do you ever wish you could pack up your suitcase, travel the world, and run your business from anywhere? Well, that's exactly what our guest today did with her family. Jessica Klasnick was living the American dream. However, she wanted more time with her family. So they sold everything, downsized, and traveled in a teeny, tiny RV as a family of five. Over the past five years, they've been recalculating what happiness means to them, breaking away from those societal norms of how life should be, and intentionally living life each day on purpose. Jessica doesn't teach you how to recreate her best life. She teaches you how to discover your own. 2:42 Discover what Jessica and her family were doing before they decided to travel with her family 4:21 How living the same day in and day out, being home with the kids, and not seeing her husband daily were catalysts to traveling with her family 6:38 How Jessica’s family reacted when she shared their plans for travel 8:10 Did Jessica ever think leaving everything behind to travel was a mistake? 10:47 How Jessica’s kids reacted to traveling 12:24 Discovering and becoming a life coach. 14:35 The people Jessica loves to work with as a coach 17:39 How a new perspective is exactly what we need 18:09 Attracting the right people into her world 19:18 Jessica’s favorite ways to create content 20:53 The 4-letter word we need to banish from business 24:29 Jessica’s philosophy on business 26:38 “I just don't want you having fun all day, but not making the money you want or having the relationship you want. I want you to have all of that. And that's when you know you're really doing it right.” 27:58 Jessica’s “Thought Drop” morning ritual 29:47 Connect with Jessica www.JessicaKlasnick.com www.RecalculatingHappiness.com 31:43 “I love that we talk about our own awesomeness because so often, because we live with ourselves, we don't even realize all of our gifts and all of these really unique things that we have. And so I would say the biggest tip, and this is a challenge is to figure out what you want, decide that you want it, and then not worry how you're going to get it. But start taking one step in the direction of that, that that dream or that desire. And just really give up on having to have that control of how do I get there.” 33:27 “Don't let being uncomfortable, be the reason you don't make a change.” 34:49 Wanna watch the VIDEO version of this episode and ask Jessica your questions?
