📢 Hollywood Strikes with Professor Todd Holmes, PhD🎙️

Welcome to another captivating episode of "Do the Do." Today, we're taking a deep dive into the ongoing Hollywood strikes and their far-reaching consequences on the entertainment industry. Join us as we dissect these strikes, their implications, and what the future holds for Hollywood. Our esteemed guest for today is none other than Professor Todd Holmes, PhD, an authority in Entertainment Media Management at California State University, Northridge. He's here to provide invaluable insights and share his expert opinions on the industry's future.

🌆 The Hollywood Strikes: A Closer Look

In Hollywood, two significant strikes have shaken the very foundations of the entertainment landscape. The Writers Guild of America (WGA) initiated their strike on May 2nd, 2023, and were soon joined by the Screen Actors Guild of America (SAG-AFTRA) on July 11th, 2023. These strikes have cast a long shadow over the local entertainment industry.

As of October 23rd, 2023, Film LA's report revealed a staggering 64 percent drop in filming permits for feature films and television projects in Los Angeles compared to the same week in 2022. These strikes have not only disrupted the industry but have also led to significant job losses. In August 2023, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported a devastating decline of 17,000 jobs in the entertainment sector compared to July 2023.

In just one month, 17,000 jobs vanished, and these repercussions extend beyond the studios, impacting the local economy and ancillary industries, including catering, transportation, and hospitality. The Los Angeles County of Economic Development Corporation emphasizes that the entertainment industry generates over $130 billion in economic activity annually and supports more than 600,000 jobs.

📊 Expert Insights: Dr. Todd Holmes, PhD

With the strikes ongoing and negotiations with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) moving at a sluggish pace, we've invited Dr. Todd Holmes to share his insights. Dr. Holmes, a Professor of Entertainment Media Management and former account executive for CBS, WB, and UPN affiliates, provides a unique perspective.

Do the Do: Impeccable Communication

Do the Do: Impeccable Communication

🎙️ Do the Do: Impeccable Communication 🗣️

In this enlightening episode of "Do the Do," we dive deeper into the wisdom of Don Miguel Ruiz and his insights on impeccable communication. We begin with the understanding that we often tend to be harder on ourselves than anyone else can ever be. These self-imposed agreements we carry often stem from our life experiences and external influences.

🤝 The First Agreement: Be Impeccable with Your Words:

Being impeccable with your words is the foundational agreement that can reshape your world. It's challenging, but like any obstacle, it can be overcome. The term "impeccable" signifies being without sin but not necessarily in a religious context. Instead, it's about refraining from self-sabotaging behaviors that hinder personal growth. When we speak impeccably, we free ourselves from self-inflicted harm and promote positive change.

🔥 The Second Agreement: Don't Take Things Personally:

Our tendency to take things personally often stirs up emotions that make it harder for us to be impeccable with our words. Recognize that others' actions and words are often more about them than you. By not taking things personally, we can maintain our inner peace and stay true to our impeccable communication.

❓ The Third Agreement: Don't Assume, Ask:

Assumptions and expectations can lead to misunderstandings and personalizing events that may have nothing to do with us. Instead of assuming, ask for clarification. This small shift can prevent miscommunications and maintain the integrity of our words.

🧊 The Power of the Fourth Agreement:

The fourth agreement ties these three principles together. It empowers us to release the inner pressure we often place on ourselves when we don't live up to these agreements. Learn to let go of mistakes, just as a child does. Self-forgiveness and embracing these agreements are our paths to self-improvement and harmony.

🔄 Breaking the Cycle:

It's vital to break the cycle of self-imposed limitations and move toward a place of self-compassion and growth. As you embrace these four agreements, you'll discover a powerful tool for reshaping your world through impeccable communication.

📖 Further Exploration:

Listen to the full episode to hear more about these agreements and their transformative power. When we apply them to our lives, and we'll experience profound positive changes in our interactions and personal growth.

🎙️ Do the Do: Agree to Succeed🚀


Unlock Your Potential and Break Free from Limitations


In this episode of "Do the Do," we discuss the concept of breaking free from self-imposed limitations and unlocking your full potential. It's all about aligning your message with your current goals and staying true to yourself.

First and foremost, authenticity is key. You can't fake it till you make it; instead, "act as if." Embracing this mindset means taking on the responsibility of your goals and dreams right now. Don't postpone or hesitate; tackle it head-on.

Remember all the tedious tasks and efforts we've discussed before? Well, they're essential, and you should embrace them as part of your journey. Every small step you take, even when it's something you don't particularly enjoy, is a step toward your ultimate destination.

Consistency is a valuable trait in today's fast-paced world. Building a credible presence and producing content across various media sources can be a challenge, especially when resources are limited. Sometimes, you may find yourself working tirelessly, even when others aren't.

Budget constraints are a common reality for many entrepreneurs, but they can also be a source of discipline. We all want to achieve our goals, but having unlimited resources doesn't necessarily mean success. Often, it's about making the most of what you have and following a carefully planned strategy.

The belief that more money automatically leads to success is a common misconception. If you haven't mastered the necessary steps and systems, even ample resources might not guarantee success. That's where coaching and guidance from someone who's been in your shoes become invaluable.

As you navigate your journey, you'll encounter obstacles and self-imposed limitations. We all do. It's like a wall of "permafrost" that we build, telling ourselves what we can't do. Instead, focus on breaking down that wall and embracing the belief that you can achieve your goals.

I recently read "The Four Agreements" by Don Miguel Ruiz, a book recommended by my sister and stepmother. It opened my eyes to the agreements I've made with myself, many of which were rooted in fear and self-doubt. I've told myself I couldn't do certain things because of my background or race, and I've been my own harshest critic.

The truth is, we're often harder on ourselves than anyone else can ever be. These self-imposed agreements stem from our past experiences and the expectations of others. However, we have the power to rewrite these agreements and free ourselves from unnecessary limitations.

Tune in to this episode to discover how to challenge and overcome the agreements that have held you back and unlock your true potential. Don't miss out on the journey to becoming your best self!

Ready to break free from self-imposed limits and unleash your potential? 🚀 Reach out to me and let's explore how you can embrace the power within you.

Do the Do: Your Net Worth Work

Do the Do: Your Net Worth Work

🎙️ 🌐 Do the Do: Your Net Worth Work 💰

In today's podcast episode, we dive deep into the world of storytelling and begin to unveil some powerful techniques to captivate your audience. 🚀

As I mentioned last week, this episode is a bit different - I haven't prepared any scripted stories. Instead, I'll be crafting them on the fly. Why? Storytelling isn't just about scripts; it's about authentic connection and forging lasting relationships in the business universe.

As the saying goes, "My network is my net worth." So, how do you build a network of invaluable connections while also helping others build theirs? It's all part of the same system.

To succeed as a brand owner, business owner, or entrepreneur, you must master the art of building enduring connections. But how do you do it? How do you nurture relationships that stand the test of time, beyond closing deals and cold calls?

It all starts with storytelling. Using the power of narrative, you can tap into individual likenesses and create avatars that resonate with your audience. But it doesn't end there. Crafting a compelling sales pitch around these avatars is key to your success.

So, what's the secret to using storytelling to build these relationships? How can you ensure that your narratives resonate within the business universe? It's all about nurturing relationships that endure, not just closing deals. And yes, this may involve tedious tasks like cold calling and spending time getting to know people, but they're essential.

Stories have the power to connect with people on a deep level. They allow you to share experiences, ideas, and information in a memorable way. They breathe life into your brand and create lasting impressions.

Take my Secretlab chair, for example. I share my experience with it because of the excellent customer service and the way they've built a relationship with me. That's what you want to achieve - building lasting connections.

So, how do you use your voice to accomplish this? Start by crafting content that resonates with your target audience, sharing stories of your own journey, challenges, and triumphs. Relate to your community and let them know they're not alone in their struggles.

Storytelling can transform you from a business owner into a relatable hero. It's a technique used by many successful speakers and influencers. They share stories of people they've encountered, providing fresh and relevant testimonies.

This month, we'll explore the five techniques of storytelling that can elevate your brand and connect you with your audience in meaningful ways.

Do the Do: Mindfulness of Voice (Part II)

Do the Do: Mindfulness of Voice (Part II)

In the Previous Lessons, we discussed:


Mindfulness and the Power of Voice: A Journey to Authentic Communication

Step 1: Stepping Out of Yourself

It is important when we practice speaking that w view ourselves from an external perspective. It's like taking a step out of ourselves and observing your presentation objectively. But why is this essential?

Step 2: The Mirror Technique

To master your voice, you must engage in a fundamental practice - standing in front of a mirror. This exercise helps us visualize your presentation, ensuring that we're not only heard but also seen. It's a crucial element of self-expression.

Step 3: Stepping in Front of the Camera

While mirrors are helpful, cameras are equally vital tools. They allow us to review your presentation, helping you think about how you're coming across to our audience. Self-expression through voice is not just about the sound; it's also about the visual impact.


In this lesson, we discuss:


James Brown and the Power of Voice

Remember what history has taught us. James Brown possessed a voice so powerful that he could stop a riot. It's not just about the sound we make; it's about how others receive it - the tonality, the vibrations, and the emotions it carries.

The Reflective Nature of Voice

Our voice can be like a still body of water, like a lake. Just as water reflects its surroundings, our voices reflect the emotions and intentions behind it. Being fully present and mindful helps us tune into the world we're in.

Mindful Communication: More Than Just Words

Mindfulness goes beyond choosing the right words; it's about understanding our intentions, emotions, and the impact of our words on others. However, being mindful can sometimes be perceived as patronizing, especially in close relationships. Finding the right balance is key.

Transforming Your Voice through Mindfulness

Incorporating mindfulness practices into our daily routine can profoundly transform our voice. It leads to a shift in how we communicate, making our speech more authentic and connected. Techniques like deep breathing, meditation, and body scans can release tension and enhance our vocal performance.

Embracing Mindfulness as Your Ally

Ultimately, embracing mindfulness as a powerful ally helps us better understand our speaking voice. It combines with other tools to foster authenticity, connection, and a deeper sense of presence in every conversation. Isn't that the kind of communication we all aspire to achieve?
