In this episode of Amazing Authorities, host Mitch Carson sits down with Terry Whalin — author, acquisitions editor, publishing strategist, and educator — who has helped thousands of authors navigate the realities of the book world.
Terry reveals the truth most authors never hear: your publisher will not market your book for you. Real success comes from the author’s consistent effort — building audience, nurturing connections, and showing up every day with meaningful value. Drawing on decades of experience as a writer, traditional publisher, and editor, Terry shares how to promote your book authentically, how to leverage libraries and newsletters for long-term sales, and why relationships are the real currency in publishing.
From writing 1,700+ blog posts to building a 175,000+ audience on X, his approach proves that small, consistent actions compound into lasting authority.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
📚 Why Author-Led Promotion Matters
The real reason publishers provide minimal marketing — and how to take control of your book’s success.
✍️ Daily Habits That Build Visibility
The “Rule of Five” action system Terry used to grow his audience and sales over time.
🏛️ Selling Through Libraries
A practical, overlooked grassroots strategy that can generate ongoing interest and circulation.
🎯 How to Hit Bestseller Lists Authentically
Why newsletters and pre-sales can outperform expensive promotional “hacks.”
🌐 Own Your Platform
Why websites and email lists are more powerful (and safer) than relying on social media.
🤝 Networking for Opportunity
How connecting with other authors and thought leaders leads to bigger projects — including ghostwriting for high-profile figures.

In this thought-provoking episode of Amazing Authorities, host Mitch Carson speaks with Thomas Freiling — publisher, author coach, and media strategist with over 30 years in the book industry. Thomas has helped CEOs, military leaders, recovery advocates, pastors, doctors, and entrepreneurs turn their experiences into influential books that build credibility, open doors, and leave a lasting legacy.

In this empowering episode of Amazing Authorities, host Mitch Carson welcomes Dr. Shanea Clancy — bestselling author, executive coach, and addiction recovery thought leader — to discuss how she built a powerful brand around mental health, leadership, and entrepreneurship.
With eight books published in just ten months, Dr. Clancy has become a voice of authority in healthcare and addiction recovery. Her first title, Transforming Trauma into Triumph, became an international bestseller across the U.S. and India — setting the stage for a mission-driven publishing journey that bridges science, psychology, and human resilience.

Her TEDx talk and international presentations have sparked important conversations about redefining recovery, even when her ideas proved controversial.
But her work doesn’t stop at writing. As founder of Clancy Consulting Services, she provides executive and exit coaching for leaders navigating high-stress transitions, guiding Fortune 500 companies in developing mental health and workplace safety policies. She’s also a mother of three, proving that balance and productivity are achievable through structure, discipline, and grace.

📚 How to publish eight books in ten months while raising three kids
🧠 Why addiction recovery must evolve beyond outdated models
💬 The business and mindset principles that drive Dr. Clancy’s consulting success
📈 How paid sales, not giveaways, build credibility and sustainable author brands

In this eye-opening episode of Amazing Authorities, host Mitch Carson sits down with Kevin McShane, disability inclusion advocate, speaker, and host of Let’s Have This Conversation, to unpack the real business impact of hiring people with disabilities — and why inclusion isn’t just good ethics, it’s smart economics.
Kevin shares powerful data and lived experience proving that companies who hire disabled talent don’t just make a difference — they make a profit. Studies show that employees with disabilities improve productivity by up to 80% and reduce turnover by 90%, outperforming non-disabled peers in engagement and loyalty. With most accommodations costing under $500, Kevin argues that inclusion is one of the highest-return investments any company can make.
But Kevin’s story is more than statistics — it’s personal. After graduating in 2010 with a journalism degree, Kevin spent six years navigating systemic barriers before finally landing his first paid job in 2016. That journey of persistence and self-belief shaped his mission: to help organizations recognize the extraordinary value of hiring people with disabilities.
Through keynote speaking, consulting, and his podcast with over 1,200 episodes, Kevin teaches leaders to see disability as a superpower — a source of creativity, innovation, and resilience that strengthens teams and cultures. His mantra, “We’re all given a deck of 52 cards — it’s how you shuffle them that counts,” reminds audiences that everyone has the power to redefine success.
In this episode, Kevin and Mitch explore:
♿ How hiring people with disabilities boosts retention, innovation, and culture
💡 Why disability inclusion is a competitive advantage, not a compliance issue
💰 The surprisingly low cost — and high ROI — of workplace accommodations
🧠 How mindset shifts drive meaningful inclusion in business
🎙️ Kevin’s personal story of resilience and how he built a 1,200-episode podcast around advocacy and progress
This conversation challenges business leaders to look beyond charity — and start seeing inclusion as a path to profit, progress, and purpose.

In this laugh-out-loud yet deeply insightful episode, host Mitch Carson chats with Phil Barth — international keynote speaker, author, and master of “chicken-powered” motivation — about how he turned corporate burnout into a thriving speaking career that helps audiences tackle fear, stress, and self-doubt.
After two decades in corporate IT, Phil decided it was time to rewrite his story. What started as a free symposium in Boston became the launchpad for a full-time speaking business — one that now spans the U.S., Canada, and Europe. His secret? Humor, heart, and a rubber chicken.
Phil’s signature keynote, Fry Your Inner Chickens, uses the playful metaphor of chickens to represent fears that hold us back. With props, laughter, and interactive moments like the “chicken squeeze,” Phil helps professionals name their fears, reframe their mindset, and chase their “big, bold, brilliant ideas.”
But behind the laughter lies strategy. Phil treats every stage as both a stage and a sales platform — connecting authentically, handing out QR-coded chickens, and transforming fans into long-term clients. His approach is a masterclass in merging entertainment with empowerment, proving that fun and focus can coexist in business success.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
🐔 How Phil turned a single free event into 32 paid engagements through storytelling and follow-up
🐔 The “Red Rooster of Regret” — and how to stop it from ruling your life
🐔 Why laughter lowers stress and opens the door to learning and creativity
🐔 How props can boost brand recall and client relationships
🐔 The business strategy behind balancing free and paid keynotes
🐔 Why embracing your quirks can make you unforgettable on stage
Phil’s journey is a reminder that success isn’t about perfection — it’s about showing up, shaking off fear, and having a little fun along the way. Whether you’re a speaker, leader, or entrepreneur, this episode will inspire you to face your “inner chickens” head-on — and maybe dance a little, too.

In this eye-opening episode, host Mitch Carson sits down with Dr. Lola Adeyemo — organizational leader, author of Thriving in Intersectionality, and founder of Immigrants in Corporate — to explore what it really means to belong in the modern workplace.
Born and raised in Nigeria, Dr. Adeyemo came to the U.S. and spent over 16 years navigating the complexities of identity, race, and inclusion in corporate America. As both a Nigerian immigrant and a Black woman, she learned firsthand how overlapping identities shape one’s voice, visibility, and value in professional spaces that often see “diversity” through a narrow lens.
Dr. Adeyemo unpacks the unspoken realities of immigrant professionals — from cultural misunderstandings and microaggressions to the tension between being labeled “Black” versus “African American.” Her story reveals the subtle ways identity can both empower and isolate — and how understanding intersectionality can transform workplaces from the inside out.
Through her company EQI Mindset and nonprofit Immigrants in Corporate, she helps HR and DEI leaders build programs that go beyond checkboxes — turning employee resource groups (ERGs) into strategic, human-centered communities that drive retention, innovation, and belonging.
Listeners will gain deep insight into:
The hidden challenges immigrant professionals face beyond race and gender labels
How corporate ERGs can evolve from social groups to business impact hubs
The cultural tension between immigrant and Black American colleagues — and how to bridge it
Why vulnerability and relationship-based leadership outperform authority-driven management
How generational and cultural shifts are reshaping leadership expectations worldwide
The importance of reclaiming one’s accent, authenticity, and story as tools of empowerment
Dr. Adeyemo’s journey from isolation to influence is both personal and practical — a roadmap for professionals who want to lead inclusively, and for organizations ready to listen beyond stereotypes.
This episode is a masterclass in identity, leadership, and the future of inclusion — told through the lens of someone who’s lived it.

In this powerful and deeply moving episode, host Mitch Carson sits down with Sarah Im, author of How I Survived the Killing Fields, to share her harrowing story of survival under Cambodia’s communist regime — and the profound healing that followed.
At just 21 years old, Sarah endured forced labor in rice fields for sixteen hours a day, seven days a week, surviving on little more than rice and watery soup. Separated from her family, malnourished, and near death, she witnessed the collapse of an entire nation under the Khmer Rouge’s brutal dictatorship.
But this is not a story of despair — it’s one of faith, resilience, and renewal.
After escaping to a UN refugee camp and later rebuilding her life in the United States, Sarah waited 35 years before writing her memoir — ensuring it came not from anger, but from peace and purpose.
Today, How I Survived the Killing Fields stands as both a historical witness and a message of hope, teaching that even in the darkest circumstances, love, faith, and perseverance can prevail. Through her story, Sarah urges readers and listeners alike to recognize the universality of struggle — and to see that life, even after unimaginable suffering, is worth rebuilding.
You’ll hear:
The shocking reality of Cambodia’s communist regime and the human cost of ideological extremism
How Sarah survived extreme labor, starvation, and family separation
The emotional and spiritual healing that allowed her to forgive and move forward
Her journey from refugee to American citizen and advocate for senior care
Why she believes sharing painful truths can prevent future suffering and despair
How faith, hope, and purpose can turn trauma into triumph
This episode is both heartbreaking and uplifting — a testament to the indestructible human spirit.

In this fascinating and deeply reflective episode of Amazing Authorities, host Mitch Carson explores the intersection of ancient philosophy and modern leadership with Vidya, a yoga therapist and emotional intelligence mentor for founders and high-performers.
What if the key to scaling your business isn’t another strategy — but mastering your inner world? Vidya introduces us to the art and science of yoga therapy, an integrative practice that unites the mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical dimensions of human potential. Far from the power-yoga many know, her approach is about realignment from the inside out — helping entrepreneurs dissolve the emotional and energetic imbalances that block fulfillment and flow.
A former corporate entrepreneur herself, Vidya shares how understanding the body’s messages can transform leadership, creativity, and resilience. She explains how emotional intelligence isn’t about detachment — it’s about integration. Our emotions, she argues, are not weaknesses to suppress, but signals to decode.
Together, Mitch and Vidya dive into provocative territory — exploring pleasure versus pain, the psychology behind desire, and the societal judgments that shape our sense of self. From navigating burnout to addressing taboo topics like identity, sexuality, and self-worth, Vidya offers a radically compassionate lens for understanding human behavior and healing through awareness.
💡 You’ll Learn:
What yoga therapy really is — and how it differs from traditional yoga
How emotions shape business outcomes (and how to leverage them as a superpower)
The connection between pain, pleasure, and purpose
Why true balance begins with integrating the body, mind, and spirit
How entrepreneurs can move from survival mode to inspired leadership
The neuroscience behind emotional regulation — and how to activate the prefrontal cortex for clarity and calm
Vidya’s philosophy is simple yet profound: life is already in balance — it’s our perceptions that create imbalance. By shifting those perceptions, leaders can transform stress into strength and realign with their mission.
If you’ve ever felt that success came at the cost of peace, or that achievement didn’t equal fulfillment, this episode reveals how to bridge the gap between outer success and inner wholeness.
✨ This episode is for you if:
🎧 Tune in and discover how emotional mastery, presence, and purpose can help you lead — not from pressure, but from balance.

In this candid and insightful episode, host Mitch Carson sits down with publishing strategist and author Ally Machadi to uncover the truth about books that build real businesses — and why most don’t.
Forget vanity publishing and “instant bestseller” hype. Ally explains how a book becomes a business tool only when it’s written with strategy — for the right audience, with a clear purpose, and at the right time in your growth. Whether you’re a coach, consultant, or professional expert, this episode will change the way you think about authorship, credibility, and marketing.
Ally shares how landing a book deal with John Wiley & Sons didn’t just grow her visibility — it multiplied her income sixteenfold and shattered her mental ceiling around self-worth and value. Becoming a published author didn’t just elevate her career; it rewired her mindset.
Together, Mitch and Ally explore how intentional publishing can transform authority, unlock new business opportunities, and expand media reach — not through luck or algorithms, but through deliberate brand alignment and storytelling.
💡 You’ll Learn:
The “fit test” that reveals whether a book will actually grow your business
Why your first 30 days after launch determine long-term visibility
How reviews and endorsements influence Amazon’s algorithms
When to choose traditional vs. self-publishing — and which earns more in the long run
Why audiobooks and podcasts are reshaping how experts connect with audiences
The mindset shift every aspiring author needs before writing Chapter One
Ally’s core message is powerful and practical: don’t just write a book — write the right book. Through her signature program and free masterclass, “Don’t Write the Wrong Book,” she guides professionals to create books that inform, inspire, and transform — books that don’t just sit on shelves, but build empires.
If you’ve ever wondered whether writing a book could elevate your credibility, attract premium clients, or boost your speaking career, this episode reveals how one well-crafted book can open doors that advertising alone never could.
✨ This episode is for you if:
You’re an expert, coach, or entrepreneur thinking about writing a book
You’ve already written a book that didn’t deliver the results you expected
You want to use publishing as a pathway to media, credibility, and business growth
You’re curious how to turn your ideas into intellectual property that scales
🎧 Tune in and learn how to position your message with clarity, authority, and precision — and how to make your next (or first) book the ultimate business growth engine.
