Blow Your Mind(set)
Welcome to the Blow Your Mind(set) Podcast — where ordinary moments meet extraordinary mindset shifts. 🎙️
In a world that’s noisy, messy, and constantly moving, we slow things down just enough to ask: "Did that really just happen?"
I’m your host, Nicole Smith — emotional intelligence expert, mindset disruptor, and your favorite thought partner in this wild ride we call leadership and life.
Every episode, we crack open the stories, shifts, and surprises that challenge how we think, lead, and show up. From boardrooms to breakups, social trends to self-talk, we’re unpacking it all through the lens of emotional brilliance.
You’ll hear powerful solo episodes and unfiltered conversations with game-changers, thought leaders, and real people doing the inner work. No fluff. Just real talk, real insight, and a real push to think differently.
Whether you're navigating a personal pivot or leading in high-pressure spaces — this is your space to reset, reframe, and blow your mindset wide open.
Let’s get into it.

Blow Your Mind(set): 50 Cent, Diddy, and the Emotional Intelligence Masterclass You Missed
Most people see drama. Leaders see strategy.
In this episode, I dissect 50 Cent's documentary move on Diddy—not as celebrity gossip, but as an emotional intelligence masterclass. He controlled his emotions, read the cultural moment, understood the emotional climate, and turned years of tension into influence, revenue, and global positioning.
Your leadership will face similar moments. Maybe not on Netflix, but absolutely in your workplace and reputation.
I break down five critical truths for leading in cancel culture:
- Power without EQ is a liability
- Silence is the real scandal
- Receipts live forever
- EQ gives you influence that outlasts backlash
- Self-correction speed determines survival
You cannot afford to lead on autopilot. The leaders who rise in 2025 are the ones who maximize their emotional intelligence—not for show, but for sustainability.
This is your wake-up call.
