“Going the Diss-tance: Rebuilding Life Through Discipline & Self-Leadership with Corey Dissin” This Friday, we sit down with Corey Dissin—creator of Knockout Life, high-performance coach, business strategist, and author of GOING THE DISS-TANCE, a raw blueprint built on decades of setbacks, reinvention, and hard-earned wisdom. After nearly 30 years running high-pressure media projects for giants like Disney on Ice and The Howard Stern Show, Corey hit a breaking point. Instead of pushing through the burnout, he walked away—and rebuilt his entire identity from the ground up. In this episode, Corey opens up about: 🥊 Hitting rock bottom after “career success” on paper 🥊 Rebuilding a life driven by discipline and purpose 🥊 The lies we’re sold about hustle culture 🥊 How to lead yourself when everything falls apart 🥊 The unfiltered truth about resilience, reinvention, and doing the work Corey doesn’t sugarcoat anything. No clickbait, no hype—just real stories, real mistakes, and practical tools forged through reps and relentless growth. If you want a conversation that cuts through the noise, this one hits hard. 🎧 Airs Friday, Dec 12 on Salty Ginger Talk Follow us for more real conversations: 📸 Facebook | TikTok | YouTube | X — @saltygingertalk 🌐 saltygingertalk.com 📰 Newsletter: https://sgts-newsletter.beehiiv.com/subscribe

AI Erik's Podcast Audio Erik Conn The AI News Podcast where we talk AI. NEWMORROW SESSIONS - A PodCast Series on the Future of Hospitality Mario C. Bauer, Florian Schneider, Axel Weber & Dr. Tillman Bardt The Newmorrow PodCast is more than a podcast — it's a platform for open dialog on the future of our business, a platform for those building what doesn’t exist yet. Here, we share and embrace our passion for the hospitality industry, but we won’t romanticize the journey. We ask the tough questions, confront uncomfortable truths, and prepare for a future that resists easy answers. We believe that the tougher and wilder times become, the more openly, honestly and humanely people need to talk to each other and act together. We believe, openness, togetherness, and truthfulness should also be cornerstones of a professional community to develop our utopian idea of „open source“. This is a space where visionaries don’t just imagine the future — they wrestle with the paradoxes that shape it: success vs. happiness, data vs. instinct, stability vs. reinvention. Join leaders, entrepreneurs, and thinkers as they share not what made them — but what’s actively shaping them, now and next.
