I’m so excited to have this guest on my show today. He is an amazing performer that takes an in-person event to the next level with his presence and music know-how. I also had the great privilege of interviewing him in person, and that’s my friend Sammy Taggett!
Sammy Taggett, also known as Shoebox Moses, is passionate about creating an unforgettable vibe for high-end corporate events and festivals. As a DJ, it’s his job to get a feel for the room and make sure everyone in that room is feeling the right kind of emotion, vibration, and energy that organizers need to convey.

BADASS FUEL — Fuel for Badass Women
Scientifically Supported Ingredients | Support, Not Replacement | Non-GMO
Two years ago, someone asked me what supplements I take to maintain my health, energy, and edge — and they were surprised that I only took four things consistently. For myself and my patients, there are four basics that support — at a foundational level — nearly every system in our bodies. In my quest for the highest quality ingredients and the easiest system for consistently incorporating supplementation into my routine, I formulated and manufactured my own line of foundational supplements. Trusted for myself and my patients, and under the guidance of your own healthcare provider, I’m excited to invite you to check out our foundational product line: Badass Basics. Learn more or order the products yourself by visiting BadassFuel.com!
CALL TO ACTION
The conversation with Sammy revealed that anyone can feel imposter syndrome, especially the higher in your career that you go. If you really want to build a deeper connection with your audience and who you serve, ask questions, get curious, and discover the ethos of the client you’re working for. And remember, life’s a journey you will make mistakes but as you progress, you will only get begged and learn from them.This week, we’re asking you: What can you do to reach a higher vibration or connection with others? What questions do you need to be asking to get closer to your client’s purpose? What did you learn in this episode that you will be implementing in the future?
