Ready to build a personal brand without losing yourself in the process? Want to know how transparency and fun can actually drive business growth?
In this episode of The Erik Cabral Show, Erik sits down with Dr. Lacey Book for an honest conversation about building a multi-million dollar business by staying true to who you are—even when the spotlight feels uncomfortable. They explore how Lacey has grown her empire by leaning into her core values of fun and transparency, proving that you don't have to love the camera to build a powerful personal brand.
They dive into the work of self-awareness, the challenge of staying humble when your community grows, and why over-communication might be the secret to clarity. Lacey shares practical insights on managing the discomfort of being in the public eye while still showing up authentically, and how every relationship—business and personal—gets amplified when you're willing to put yourself out there.
If you're building a brand that reflects who you really are (not who you think you should be), this episode delivers the real talk you need. Tune in for this refreshing take on authenticity, transparency, and building something meaningful in a world that often rewards the opposite.

Reel 1: Fun + Transparency = Unstoppable
Caption:
Business doesn't have to kill your passion. But without fun, it will.
Dr. Lacey Book shares her two non-negotiables: infusing fun into everything and radical transparency with everyone you serve. When you can't bring the fun factor, passion dies. When you're not transparent about expectations, relationships fail. Simple formula: Fun keeps you going, transparency builds trust.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
