Welcome to the Do More by Doing Less podcast with Charles Alexander, the show for Small Business Owners, Start Ups, and Busy Folks!

This is not another productivity, hustle, and grind podcast.

I literally want you to do less.

Many of us are overwhelmed, frustrated, and need a break.

The good news is that we can accomplish much more than now.

Once we focus on the vital few, and prioritize things that make our lives and the lives of people around us better, we can “do more by doing less”.

This podcast is funny, simple, and has real-world stories.

The episodes alternate between my solo podcasts and guest podcasts.

In the solo episodes I share stories and frameworks from my experience in coaching small business owners and my own entrepreneurship endeavors. Oh, and any other story that can get a laugh while sticking to the theme of the podcast😊

In the guest podcasts, I will bring on other entrepreneurs who will share their expertise and discuss their own methods for doing more by doing less.

That’s it.

How to Be the Leader You Would Want to Follow with Dr. J.J. Peterson

Ever feel like you have to act tough to be taken seriously as a leader?

Show Summary:
In this episode, I talk with Dr. J.J. Peterson, longtime StoryBrand expert and host of the Badass Softy podcast. JJ shares why real leadership comes from being human, not harsh. We get into how the four story roles shape behavior, why the strongest leaders act as guides, and how joy and connection make you more effective. We also cover why authenticity matters even more as AI becomes widespread.

Takeaways:
• I don’t need to be abrasive to succeed, and neither do you.
• My experiences and values shape my point of view, which should guide how I lead.
• The best leaders show up as guides with both empathy and authority.
• Joy and human connection improve creativity, resilience, and productivity.
• AI can’t replace wisdom or real relationships, so humanity is a competitive advantage.

About our guest Dr. J.J. Peterson:
Dr. J.J. Peterson is a communication strategist and leadership coach with a PhD in narrative theory. He spent a decade teaching and leading at StoryBrand and now helps leaders clarify their message, develop their point of view, and lead with both ambition and heart.

Charles Alexander has been a full-time Business Coach since 2007. He has coached over 2,000 entrepreneurs to grow their businesses and helped over 250 people start businesses. Then he decided to practice what he preached. After years of seeing the need for video marketing, he started creating Explainer Videos for Busy Professionals in 2015. That part-time business is now a full-time business with proven systems and a team.

Using those real-world experiences, I have created a boatload (well not a real boat, but you get the picture) of resources for you below, so you can start doing more by doing less!
