Triumphant with Nicholas Trevillian

Just in case you needed to hear it... I am proud of you, I see you and I believe in you!

Everyone’s talking about A.I. like it’s some magic money💰machine… But here’s the truth: If you’re relying on some automated A.I. follow-up tool to magically create content, make connections and close deals for you, you’re gonna stay stuck.In this episode, I break down my real take on A.I. as a business owner in 2025. Yeah, I use A.I. every day. It helps me create content, speed things up, and stay efficient. But when it comes to actually closing business? 👉 You still need to show up. 👉 You still need to connect. 👉 You still need to follow up like a real human. A business owner recently asked me,“Hey Nicky, what A.I. tool do you use to follow up with your leads?”And I said: “I don’t. I just call them.”That blew his mind. We’ve gotten so used to automating everything that we forget how powerful it is to just text someone back, call someone, or have a real convo that builds trust. You don’t need a magic follow-up machine. You need a simple, real system…. powered by YOU. So if you’re tired of spinning your wheels, chasing the shiny new ai 🤖 tools and tricks…this episode is your reset button and a reminder to why the basic, analog old school stuff still works!

In this episode, I’m coming to you raw and real. I’ve been an entrepreneur for 20 years — I’ve built businesses, lost businesses, made millions, lost millions, had business partners rob me, had $100K months and $100K losses. I’ve seen all of it. And through it all, I’ve learned one thing: You’ve gotta talk about the real sh*t. Not the fake flexes. Not the "I made $10K in 10 minutes" nonsense. Just truth. From the trenches. From experience. From growth. So that’s what today’s episode is all about — Why you need to stop chasing vanity metrics… And start creating from your heart, from your story, from the things you’ve lived through. Here’s what I cover: * Why your failures are actually fuel * What kind of content really builds connection (hint: it’s not the viral stuff) * Why I stopped posting just to post * The importance of health, sobriety, faith, family, and building a business that fuels your life — not consumes it * How real stories attract real people (and real clients) If you’ve ever felt burnt out by content… If you’re sick of the “guru game”… If you want to make a real impact — this one’s for you. Let’s get back to what matters. Let’s talk about the real sh*t.

Today’s episode is coming to you way off the beaten path—from 250 acres of open land in Texas. No fancy mic setup, no script—just me, some hawks flying overhead, and yeah… a herd of cows that tried to run me down. (true story!) But in the middle of all that, I had this moment of real, raw gratitude. And I had to hit record. This episode is a reminder—for both of us—to slow down for a second and actually see how far we’ve come. If you’re a business owner, creator, or just someone always chasing the next big milestone, you probably don’t give yourself enough credit. I get it. I’ve done it too. Whether you just had your first $10K month, left a toxic job, lost 10 pounds, launched your first funnel, or survived a crazy year—pause. Take a deep breath. Celebrate that. Not everything has to be about grinding to $10 million and a private jet. If your dream is $20K/month and more beach days, that’s a badass goal. If it’s 100K/year and breakfast with your kids every morning, that’s success in my book. Take a walk, take a breath, and take this episode in. You’ve come a long way and I’m proud of you. 🎧 Tune in and let’s reflect together.

Yo, what’s up my friends—Nicky T here, and today’s episode is all about reminding you of one simple truth: Success for you doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s. There’s no one “right” way to build your business, grow your audience, or create success. You don’t have to do what the loudest voice on the internet says.You don’t have to follow some guru’s 17-step content plan.You don’t have to hustle in a way that burns you out. There are a million ways to win—and the only thing that matters is finding the approach that feels right for you, fits your lifestyle, and moves you toward your goals. In this episode, I challenge you to take a step back, zoom out, and ask: - Where do I actually want to go? - What strategies and tools feel good for me? - What’s the pace, the style, the vibe that fits my life? ...This is your permission to stop comparing, stop feeling like you’re doing it wrong, and start owning your path. Success gets a lot more fun when you do it your way. Tune in and let's go carve your own wave 🌊
