In this week’s episode of Remarkable, I have a casual conversation with Nicole Welch, a former missionary turned sociology professor, who has made a name for herself as both a business coach and as host of the podcast, Real Time: Real Men Only.
Her research and work with youth in Adult Prisons has been published in the American Association of Criminal Justice Journal and she’s spoken at numerous conferences, workshops and seminars both within the U.S and abroad.
She’s a successful entrepreneur and founder of the non-profit organization, Servant’s Heart, Inc, and she and her husband lived in Honduras for 3 years, spearheading several social justice projects including building homes, food programs, and starting and directing a Teen Challenge Center for ex-gang members.
Nicole has a passion for helping others, and she’s known for her generosity and efforts to help people tap into their own “superpowers” so they can bring their greatest work into the world!
She is both inspiring and empowering, and I really enjoyed listening to her stories, as well as her tips and advice.
In this episode, Nicole and I discuss:
- Tips for getting great guests
- The #1 key for booking big names
