Entrepreneurship, Media, and the Future of Business Storytelling

How The Daily Pitch Helps Managers, Leaders, and Entrepreneurs Get Better @ What They Do

My “why” is rooted in helping managers, leaders, and entrepreneurs get better at what they do. After decades working with Fortune 500 companies and with C-Suite leaders, I saw a gap between the insights executives have access to and the practical, everyday knowledge that small business owners and professionals need to thrive. I founded DissedMedia as a company focused on developing products and insights that will help those interested in business at any level build upon their knowledge and wisdom. It is really a marriage of my three passions, which are business, education, and creativity. I’ve been in the CPG industry (Consumer Product Goods), for over 30 years, higher education for 20, and a curious creator all my life. The Daily Pitch is a platform I designed to publish stories and insights about business, leadership, and entrepreneurship. The Daily Pitch Academy is an education platform I am building to help individuals at all levels learn about theories and practices I have taught for many years. It will also become a platform for consultants and coaches who can leverage it to help teach and inform too. The podcast, DissedMedia A Startup Story tells the story of starting DissedMedia from the very beginning. My purpose is to share not only what I’ve learned in boardrooms and classrooms, but also to democratize that wisdom so anyone building a business or leading a team can make smarter, faster, and more human decisions.

I began my career at Coca-Cola in Atlanta as a frontline contractor making $5.50 an hour. Seeing that growth required education and experience I didn’t yet have, I enrolled in college while working full-time and raising a family. Over two decades at Coca-Cola, I advanced professionally, earned my degree, pursued an MBA, and eventually began teaching.

After 20 years in the beverage industry, I transitioned into wine while completing a PhD in Business Administration with a focus on Industrial Organizational Psychology. Alongside my career in consumer goods, I’ve served in academia as an adjunct professor, department chair, and MBA program director—teaching or developing over 75 courses in business, spanning leadership, management, marketing, operations, and more.

These experiences inspired me to found DissedMedia, home to The Daily Pitch news platform and The Daily Pitch Academy. My work centers on translating business trends into meaningful insights for leaders, entrepreneurs, and everyday decision-makers.

BB25-40. Dianne Crampton. Stories Shift Leadership

October 6, 2025October 4, 2025Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Building your business with Sara Troy and her guest Dianne Crampton, on air from October 7th

On this episode, we welcome Dianne Crampton, founder of the TIGERS 6 Principles and president of TIGERS Success Series. Dianne is the author of Becoming TIGERS: Leading Your Team to Success. In this unique leadership parable—crafted in the tradition of Native American storytelling—Dianne weaves a story within a story. At its heart is a father whose job is on the line because his well-intentioned passion comes out as shouting and micromanagement. His struggle mirrors a parable about two tiger brothers—one who inspires and coaches his diverse tribe, and another who rules with surliness and control. Dianne explores how stories gently shift mindsets and open leaders to real change, offering a fresh path away from toxic behaviors and toward collaborative, high-trust leadership. She also shares her vision for pairing Becoming TIGERS with the TIGERS Team Wheel game to support school counselors and help address root causes of conflict and even gun violence in schools. Tune in for an unforgettable conversation about the power of story to change how we lead, work, and live together.

25-40. Gift of Another Year

October 6, 2025October 4, 2025Self Discovery Wisdom Podcast

Sara’s View of Life with Sara Troy, on air from October 7th

Well, when this show airs, I’ll have just turned seventy-one, the big 71, entering my seventh decade. It’s just a number, really, one that’s shaped more by attitude than years. Still, considering my father died at forty-five and others I’ve known have left this world far too early, I see each birthday as a privilege. I’ve survived another year, and I hope to see many more ahead.

As I look back across these seven decades, at all I’ve done, where I’ve been, what I’ve achieved, and even the “why did I do that” moments , I carry forward the good memories and leave the rest behind. Life is full, and I am blessed. My days are busy with podcasting, sharing extraordinary stories from around the world, and now, as a grandmother awaiting the birth of another grandchild, my heart is full of love and anticipation. Between the shows, the babies, and the books, my schedule is bursting, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Turning another year older only deepens my gratitude. I’ve signed a contract with the universe to keep doing this work for as long as I can see, hear, and talk, hopefully well into my nineties! The universe, of course, has its own plans, but I follow its guidance with joy. I’m proud of the books I’ve helped bring into the world — Our Forgotten Children, Liberate Your True Self, The Discovery of Self, and the next, Our Forgotten Seniors. Each one carries stories of wisdom, courage, and hope.

Age, I’ve learned, isn’t a decline; it’s an accumulation of knowledge, of grace, of purpose. The aches and pains come, but passion fuels me past them. I find inspiration in people in their sixties, seventies, eighties, even nineties, still living their dreams, still shining their light. They remind me that joy and purpose are the true youth elixirs.

So, don’t let age or limitations stop you. Share your story, your lessons, your laughter. Listen to your body, honor your energy, and live from the inside out. Let your wisdom serve others. Growing older is not something to fear, it’s something to celebrate. It’s a privilege to be here, to love, to create, to witness new generations rise, and to still have dreams that call us forward.

To everyone out there, whether it’s your birthday or simply another beautiful day, remember that every sunrise is a new birth, a new beginning. Live it fully, love it deeply, and keep sharing your light with the world.

Sam says “Ever since I was a child, I’ve found myself lost in the world of words and stories. I am Sam Hawksmoor, and writing isn’t just what I do; it’s who I am. It’s like I discovered my calling before I even knew what a calling was. Each blank page was a canvas for my imagination, a gateway to unknown worlds and uncharted territories’.
