| 01 Nov 2023 | 113: Smashing Six Figure Goals with Aly Marie - STUDENT SPOTLIGHT | 00:40:50 | |
So on today’s episode I am interviewing Aly Marie, an incredible wedding photographer from Melbourne Australia, who has been a student of mine in my signature six figure coaching program: The Business Blueprint (OPENING ENROLLMENT ON NOV 8!) I’ve been able to get to know Aly over the past few months, and hearing her story has been such an incredible testament to how even new, first year photographers can hit MASSIVE MASSIVE goals within their first year of being full-time. She’s already hitting those 8.5k+ months to hit six figures, actually been blowing way past them lately with 5 figure months, and I’m so excited to interview her on the show to bring you listening some mindset shifting that you can do what she has done. You can take MASSIVE goals and bring them to reality. ⭐️CLICK HERE TO RATE & REVIEW THE PODCAST ON APPLE PODCASTS!⭐️ (Click the link, scroll down to where it says “Ratings & Reviews” and click the link that says “Write a Review”) ⭐️Get my free INQUIRY EMAIL RESPONSE TEMPLATE!⭐️ Links from Aly: Website: https://alymarie.com.au/ Connect on Instagram: @alymariephoto Links from Nathan: Online Courses & Products from Nathan: https://www.nathanchanski.co/education Apply for 1:1 Coaching Program with Nathan: https://www.nathanchanski.co/coaching-application Connect on Instagram: @nathanchanski Connect on Tik Tok: @nathanchanski Mentioned in this episode: | |||
| 15 Nov 2023 | 116: "Success Is Your Best Revenge" | 00:23:15 | |
Let's talk about the phrase 'Success Is Your Best Revenge.' In this episode, I tell the story of a vulnerable moment of mine from a recent discussion on a mastermind retreat from a few months ago, I uncovered a fear rooted in past doubts from others, and what I've been learning since. Many preach this narrative, but I question its impact on happiness! Revenge might drive success, but it's a powerful YET unfulfilling reason to succeed. Letting go and finding purpose beyond proving others wrong is the real victory.

| 13 Mar 2024 | 134: Why Photography Isn't A "Normal Business", and How To See the Differences | 00:26:44 | |
In today’s episode I am talking about something that I think a lot of people need to hear and that’s why photography isn’t like a lot of other normal businesses. I’ve learned a lot of different things from different business mentors, books, even my own college degree in business. In order to do that, you have to learn how to sift through what applies and even translate it all to your business! I believe this is KEY to running a successful business, so in this episode I’m breaking down how to look at these other industries and filter what you learn in a way that is constructive, applicable, and appropriate.

| 27 Mar 2024 | 136: “Comparison Is The Thief of Joy” | 00:36:14 | |
Ever felt that little feeling of comparison creep up inside you? Have you ever talked to someone in your personal life, or found yourself on someone’s account on social media, and before you know it, you’re sizing yourself up next to their achievements and their accomplishments? We’re talking all about it today in this episode covering the topic of COMPARISON, and the under-talked about feeling of “envy.” In fact, I bet MANY of you have improperly defined envy in your brain, and I want to give you an eye-opening chat about how it sneaks in, how it can damage our potential in business and our hearts inside of us, and then I want to offer you an alternative to it that can actually help you (and others) succeed, simultaneously.
