Getting Under The Surface (GUTS)
Getting Under The Surface is a podcast that helps listeners improve their mental, physical and emotional health by digging into the connections between mindfulness, meditation, self-care and relationships — including the relationship we have with ourselves. Topics covered include: anxiety, burnout, caregiving, consciousness, grief, illness, loss, meditation, mindfulness, self care, stress, and trauma. Your podcast host, Joey Donovan Guido, is a certified Teacher of Presence Life Coach who works with people to help them be in the present moment more, instead of being ruled by thoughts and emotions. This has an array of benefits, as it helps individuals approach whatever they’re dealing with in life from a place that’s less anxious and stressed — and more calm and connected with their deeper selves.

Marketing Tip of the Day: When Selling Becomes Smelling & the Art of Relationship Building (ep.8)
I often find when people I don’t know try to “connect” with me on LinkedIn, they send a sales pitch just moments after I accept them into my network.
Nobody likes to be sold, not even the people doing the hardcore selling. But the quest for more business — especially if an organization is struggling through a pandemic — can leave professionals blind to the fact that they are essentially walking up to a complete stranger and proposing marriage — not even knowing their name.
This is when selling becomes "smelling."
And it can happen anywhere — on social media, your website, blog, or in the analog world. Avoid it, just as you would an expired container of milk.
In this episode of GUTS, we’ll talk about an alternative to smelling — the art of relationship building.
