In this deeply moving episode, Lindsay sits down with Dr. Lise Janelle, peak performance coach and creator of the Heart Freedom Method, for a conversation that goes far beyond business strategy and straight into the heart of what it means to truly live.</p><p>Dr. Lise's journey began in chiropractic school, driven by a personal healing experience as a teenager. But after years of helping patients heal physically, she kept hitting the same wall — some people got better and some didn't, and the difference almost always came down to the emotional and subconscious patterns running silently in the background.

As a business consultant I think from the end rather than the beginning and after you listen to this episode you'll understand how to do that too.</p><p>Thinking this way helps to prevent burn out and it builds a more sustainable and scalable business that is a SELL-ABLE ASSET.</p><p>Affiliate marketing involves marketing other people's products for a commission. Whereas selling digital products is developing your own products and marketing them.</p><p>On the surface affiliate marketing seems like the better option because it leverages someone else's hard work to develop; however, you'll soon see that is not all that it is cracked up to be after you are managing multiple affiliate product pipelines. But, I don't rule out affiliate marketing completely either!</p><p>With my Rosebush Effect method (which I explain in the episode) you'll see how to truly come out winning by leveraging more than one strategy and exactly how to do it in a way that does not burn you out!</p><p>Join the free Facebook Community!

As a business consultant I think from the end rather than the beginning and after you listen to this episode you'll understand how to do that too.</p><p>Thinking this way helps to prevent burn out and it builds a more sustainable and scalable business that is a SELL-ABLE ASSET.</p><p>Affiliate marketing involves marketing other people's products for a commission. Whereas selling digital products is developing your own products and marketing them.</p><p>On the surface affiliate marketing seems like the better option because it leverages someone else's hard work to develop; however, you'll soon see that is not all that it is cracked up to be after you are managing multiple affiliate product pipelines. But, I don't rule out affiliate marketing completely either!</p><p>With my Rosebush Effect method (which I explain in the episode) you'll see how to truly come out winning by leveraging more than one strategy and exactly how to do it in a way that does not burn you out!</p><p>Join the free Facebook Community!

It's the word every online entrepreneur knows they need—but most avoid like the plague. Should you show your face? What should you say? What if people judge you? What if you look too salesy?

After scaling a tech startup to $15 million in sales, earning a multi-six-figure salary, and checking every box society says equals success, his wife handed him her wedding ring back on Christmas Eve 2019 and said: "You're either married to me or married to this business.

In this deeply personal and tactical episode, Lindsay sits down with George Rivera, founder of the Buyback Time Formula, to unpack a truth most entrepreneurs avoid: you can scale without sacrificing your life—but only if you stop being the bottleneck.</p><p>George's story begins with missed basketball games, a father who was always working, and a deathbed promise that changed everything. When his dad told him, "Don't miss Leo's games. I missed too many of yours," George was already repeating the cycle—working 16-hour days, managing 40 people directly, and missing his son's milestones while his wife sent him photos from the sidelines.</p><p>Fast forward to 2018: George's business hit $20 million in sales. He was printing money. And he hated every second of it. Burned out, exhausted, and ready to sabotage his own company, he sent his coach a distress call that led to a two-hour conversation and a complete transformation.</p><p>Here's what George discovered: he was spending 40 hours a week on tasks that could be handled for $50/hour or less. By implementing the Buyback Time Formula—auditing his time, eliminating waste, automating what repeats, and delegating with <em>ownership</em> (not just tasking down)—he bought back his life. Two years later, his business more than doubled to $50 million, and he was working less than 30 hours a week.</p><p>In this episode, you'll learn:</p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>The "Freedom Audit": how to track your time for two weeks and identify what's actually costing you your life</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>The three things you can do with any task: eliminate, automate, or delegate (with ownership and decision rights)</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Why delegating without transferring ownership keeps you trapped in the "Founder Prison"</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>How to hire right using simple tests that weed out 90% of unqualified applicants</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>The Loom + ChatGPT SOP method that ensures tasks never boomerang back to you</li></ol><br/><p>If you're cash-rich and time-poor, stuck managing instead of leading, or missing out on your family while your business "succeeds," this episode is your wake-up call.</p><p><strong>Connect with George:</strong> buybacktimeformula.com | Free book (just pay shipping) | Facebook &amp; LinkedIn</p><p>Join the free Facebook Community!

Burned out, exhausted, and ready to sabotage his own company, he sent his coach a distress call that led to a two-hour conversation and a complete transformation.</p><p>Here's what George discovered: he was spending 40 hours a week on tasks that could be handled for $50/hour or less. By implementing the Buyback Time Formula—auditing his time, eliminating waste, automating what repeats, and delegating with <em>ownership</em> (not just tasking down)—he bought back his life. Two years later, his business more than doubled to $50 million, and he was working less than 30 hours a week.</p><p>In this episode, you'll learn:</p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>The "Freedom Audit": how to track your time for two weeks and identify what's actually costing you your life</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>The three things you can do with any task: eliminate, automate, or delegate (with ownership and decision rights)</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Why delegating without transferring ownership keeps you trapped in the "Founder Prison"</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>How to hire right using simple tests that weed out 90% of unqualified applicants</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>The Loom + ChatGPT SOP method that ensures tasks never boomerang back to you</li></ol><br/><p>If you're cash-rich and time-poor, stuck managing instead of leading, or missing out on your family while your business "succeeds," this episode is your wake-up call.</p><p><strong>Connect with George:</strong> buybacktimeformula.com | Free book (just pay shipping) | Facebook &amp; LinkedIn</p><p>Join the free Facebook Community!

One week you're told THIS strategy is the secret to success. The next week, someone's claiming that same strategy is dead and you need to pivot immediately. It's exhausting, confusing, and honestly?

The first is the <strong>virality approach</strong>—think social media dominance, massive content output, building huge audiences on platforms like YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok. It's all about quantity, visibility, and constant engagement. If you love creating content and thrive on high-energy output, this path could be your goldmine.</p><p>The second is the <strong>long-term game approach</strong>—SEO, blogging, and the emerging world of AEO (Answer Engine Optimization), which is all about showing up in AI search results from ChatGPT, Google's AI overviews, and other LLMs. This strategy prioritizes clarity over quantity, conversion over impressions, and building sustainable visibility that compounds over time.</p><p>Lindsay dives into the pros and cons of each, shares fascinating research about how AI is pulling content (spoiler: 44% of LLM results aren't even ranked in traditional Google search), and explains why THIS moment is your opportunity as a small business owner. The playing field is leveling. You don't need a massive budget anymore—you need an effective strategy and crystal-clear messaging.</p><p>By the end of this episode, you'll know exactly which path aligns with your strengths, your lifestyle, and your revenue goals. No more second-guessing. No more strategy hopping. Just clarity, confidence, and a plan you can actually execute.</p><p><strong>The through-line for both strategies?</strong> Clarity.

(This changes everything about what you build)</p><p>✅ <strong>3 validation methods you can complete in 48 hours:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Method 1: AI + Reddit (The Digital Listening Post) - Use AI to search forums and extract the EXACT language your market uses</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Method 2: Coffee Chats (The Human Connection) - The 3 magic questions that reveal if people will actually buy</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Method 3: Competitor Research (The Missing Piece Strategy) - Find the gaps in existing solutions and build around them</li></ol><br/><p>✅ <strong>The Lindsay Friedman case study:</strong> How she's competing with Care.com by solving what they get WRONG (this is brilliant positioning)</p><p>✅ <strong>The decision framework:</strong> Green light, yellow light, or red light—exactly when to build, pivot, or move on</p><p>✅ <strong>The pre-sell test:</strong> How to get people to say "take my money" before you build anything</p><p><strong>This is for you if:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>You have ideas swirling but don't know which one to pursue</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>You're stuck in the overthinking loop (research → more research → analysis paralysis)</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>You've built things in the past that didn't sell</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>You want to know your idea will work BEFORE you invest time building it</li></ol><br/><p><strong>The truth?</strong> 48 hours is enough time to validate. More time just means more overthinking.</p><p>Stop assuming what your market needs. Start listening to what they're actually asking for.</p><p><strong>Your next step:</strong> Pick ONE idea and run it through the validation process this week.

Not after years of grinding. Right now—with the technology already at your fingertips.</p><p>David Asarnow spent 17 years in corporate America, growing a $6-8M company into a $45M division. Then he built an all-digital portrait studio franchise to eight figures in five years. Now? He's helping entrepreneurs leverage AI to cut operating costs down to 10%.</p><p>His clients are downsizing teams—from six people down to one. Not because they're struggling, but because AI agents are doing the work that used to require full-time employees.</p><p><strong>In this conversation, David reveals:</strong></p><p><strong>The Team Shift:</strong> David told his team three and a half years ago: "I know you're scared AI will take your job. But if you don't use it, you'll be replaced by someone who does. And if WE don't use it, we'll be replaced by companies who do."</p><p>Recently, a team member said: "I don't have as much work. I'm getting things done faster. Should I stop using AI?"</p><p>David's response? "If you don't use AI, you don't have a job."</p><p><strong>The AI Agent Strategy:</strong> Create autonomous agents that handle tasks you used to pay people full-time to do:</p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Copy agents that write on-brand messaging</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Reporting agents that scan Facebook and Google Ads and deliver ROI analysis</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Customer service agents that handle inquiries</li></ol><br/><p>What used to require hiring an outside agency or a full-time employee? Now it's an agent you build in an afternoon.</p><p><strong>The CHAOS Framework:</strong> David created this hiking on a Friday:</p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>Coherence:</strong> Slow down to speed up</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>Action:</strong> Focus on ONE thing for 90 days</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>Outcome:</strong> That one thing will achieve more than 10 things you're juggling</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>Stabilization:</strong> Persistence beats shiny objects</li></ol><br/><p><strong>The Communication Secret:</strong> Most people use AI and get garbage. Why? They communicate with it like it's Google.</p><p>Instead, treat it like your smartest collaboration partner. Ask it to interview YOU. Ask it questions like a first-grader needs step-by-step instructions. Train it on frameworks (marketing psychology, buyer behavior, brand voice).</p><p>David's hack? He opens two windows—one with ChatGPT, one with the software he's using. He asks ChatGPT to troubleshoot step-by-step instead of digging through help documentation.</p><p><strong>The $100 vs. $10K Shift:</strong> Someone bought David's sub-$100 offer and said it added more value than a $10K training they'd purchased before. The market is shifting: People expect value, but they're not investing in $50K masterminds anymore.</p><p>Give massive value at lower price points. Build trust. They'll buy everything you offer.</p><p><strong>The Human Edge:</strong> AI gives you 90% of the way there. But unless you understand marketing frameworks, buyer psychology, and brand voice—you'll get average results.</p><p>The difference between stellar output and mediocre? YOU. The human who knows what good looks like.</p><p><strong>The Proofreading Disaster:</strong> A client submitted a workbook to David's team for design. When they got it back, they complained: "This doesn't match our brand voice AT ALL."</p><p>David's response? "That's interesting. We didn't change a single word. This is the exact copy you gave us."</p><p>The client had written it in ChatGPT, never proofread it, and sent it off for design.</p><p><strong>The Bottom Line:</strong> AI isn't replacing you. It's amplifying you. But only if you know how to use it. Learn the frameworks. Master the prompts. Build the agents. And always—ALWAYS—proofread.</p><p><strong>ABOUT DAVID ASARNOW:</strong></p><p>David Asarnow is the founder of Business Nitrogen, an AI-powered marketing strategist who's helped clients generate over $750 million in revenue over 15 years.

Believing that if you just get famous on some platform, it'll solve all your problems. Thinking you're missing some secret about the algorithm that's keeping you from success.</p><p><strong>The Truth (The Legit):</strong> Feed the algorithm what it wants—and align it with what you do.</p><p><strong>Here's What Actually Works:</strong></p><p><strong>1. The algorithm isn't controlled by Meta or TikTok—it's controlled by PEOPLE.</strong> The viewers. The content consumers. They ARE your market. Give them what they want.</p><p><strong>2. Say the same thing over and over and over.</strong> This is the part most people struggle with (Lindsay included). It feels boring. But look at any large account—go to their page, open their latest post, scroll backwards. They're saying the SAME STUFF. It's like Mexican food: same ingredients, just put together differently.</p><p><strong>3. One pillar of content. Not three. ONE.</strong> People follow you for YOU and your MESSAGE. That's the recipe for loyal, engaged followers. Yes, you can tie in personal stories. Yes, you can talk about transformations. But it's all the SAME THING.</p><p><strong>4. Your relationship is with PEOPLE, not the algorithm.</strong> The #1 way Lindsay grows? Slow and steady relationship building. Podcast guests. DM conversations. Real connections.

That's what social media should feel like.</p><p><strong>The Virality Problem:</strong> Lindsay has a post with 12,000 clicks. It went viral. But those aren't her people. Virality doesn't equal followers who convert. It just means you entertained strangers.</p><p><strong>What Happens When You Chase the Wrong Strategy:</strong> You grow a following of people who don't care about your offer. Then when you pivot to aligned content that actually converts, they bounce. And you're back to square one—but this time, you're frustrated and broke from buying all those courses.</p><p><strong>The Algorithm's Real Goal:</strong> Keep people ON their platform. That's it. That's the secret.</p><p>Want links off-platform to work? They won't perform as well. Want to win on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook? Link OTHER content on the SAME platform. Keep people engaged there.</p><p><strong>The Bottom Line:</strong> Stop chasing hacks. Build relationships. Say the same thing in different ways.

They show you flashy income screenshots. They make it sound like three hours of work will change your life.</p><p><strong>The truth?</strong></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Creating consistent content is HARD</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Getting 70-80% of your views from non-followers requires deep platform knowledge</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Organic growth takes <strong>6-18 months minimum</strong> of consistent hustle</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>If you don't have money for ads, you need TIME and SKILL</li></ol><br/><p><strong>The Woman Who Couldn't Afford Another Course:</strong> She bought a course for less than $100, expecting it to solve her financial problems. It didn't work. She's now desperate, asking strangers in Facebook groups to help her make sense of something that was never designed to help her succeed—it was designed to make the course creator money.</p><p><strong>Lindsay's Advice:</strong> If you want to make $1,000/month overnight, you need a paid ads budget. Period.</p><p>If you don't have money for ads, expect:</p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>6-18 months</strong> of consistent content creation</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Learning platform algorithms (not just "posting consistently")</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Building an actual skill set you can apply to multiple income streams</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Choosing a topic you can fall in love with (because you'll be doing this for a while)</li></ol><br/><p><strong>What You Should Do Instead:</strong> Don't buy into one-funnel wonders. Build a real business around something authentic to YOU. Use PLRs as a tool (not the entire business). Create multiple income streams. Learn to fish—don't just take the fish they're handing you.</p><p><strong>The Bottom Line:</strong> Side hustles without strategy are recipes for burnout. Quick cash without skill-building leaves you vulnerable when the trend dies. And courses promising "easy money" are almost always selling you a dream that benefits them more than you.</p><p><strong>Lindsay's PSA:</strong> If you're broke and desperate, a $27 PDF is not going to save you. If someone is selling you "the secret" to making money online, ask yourself: why are they selling the secret instead of just using it?</p><p><strong>What's Next:</strong> This is part of a series called "Weeding Out the Legit From the Shit" (yes, that's the actual first episode title). Lindsay is committed to helping you navigate the muddy waters of online business without falling for get-rich-quick schemes.</p><p><strong>Resources:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Join the Freedom Online Business Builders Community on Facebook</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Text FREEDOM to 55444 to get the free guide: "Earn 5K On Repeat"</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Subscribe to the podcast for more episodes exposing what's real and what's not</li></ol><br/><p><strong>Final Thought:</strong> There ARE legitimate ways to make money online.

She's now desperate, asking strangers in Facebook groups to help her make sense of something that was never designed to help her succeed—it was designed to make the course creator money.</p><p><strong>Lindsay's Advice:</strong> If you want to make $1,000/month overnight, you need a paid ads budget. Period.</p><p>If you don't have money for ads, expect:</p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>6-18 months</strong> of consistent content creation</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Learning platform algorithms (not just "posting consistently")</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Building an actual skill set you can apply to multiple income streams</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Choosing a topic you can fall in love with (because you'll be doing this for a while)</li></ol><br/><p><strong>What You Should Do Instead:</strong> Don't buy into one-funnel wonders. Build a real business around something authentic to YOU. Use PLRs as a tool (not the entire business). Create multiple income streams. Learn to fish—don't just take the fish they're handing you.</p><p><strong>The Bottom Line:</strong> Side hustles without strategy are recipes for burnout. Quick cash without skill-building leaves you vulnerable when the trend dies. And courses promising "easy money" are almost always selling you a dream that benefits them more than you.</p><p><strong>Lindsay's PSA:</strong> If you're broke and desperate, a $27 PDF is not going to save you. If someone is selling you "the secret" to making money online, ask yourself: why are they selling the secret instead of just using it?</p><p><strong>What's Next:</strong> This is part of a series called "Weeding Out the Legit From the Shit" (yes, that's the actual first episode title). Lindsay is committed to helping you navigate the muddy waters of online business without falling for get-rich-quick schemes.</p><p><strong>Resources:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Join the Freedom Online Business Builders Community on Facebook</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Text FREEDOM to 55444 to get the free guide: "Earn 5K On Repeat"</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Subscribe to the podcast for more episodes exposing what's real and what's not</li></ol><br/><p><strong>Final Thought:</strong> There ARE legitimate ways to make money online.

Build something YOU can be proud of.</p><p><strong>ABOUT THIS EPISODE:</strong></p><p><strong>Disclaimer:</strong> This is Lindsay's opinion based on research.

She Built a Multimillion-Dollar Business Anyway With Amanda Wittenborn</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Amanda Wittenborn was making $3,000-5,000 a month on Etsy—the first time in her marriage she'd ever had all the bills covered with money left over. She'd built the business from absolute broke (parking the car in debt at the front of the driveway so it couldn't be towed overnight) to finally breathing financially.</p><p>Then one morning, while still in the newborn fog with her third son, she got an email: copyright infringement flag.

Her dream job—gone.</p><p>She quit. For nearly a year, she gave up entirely.</p><p>But then she got an email from another party brand looking for a designer. She took the job, started designing for a "competitor," and something sparked. That little voice whispered: <em>You're supposed to be designing party supplies.</em></p><p>So she tried again. But there was a problem: Amazon (the biggest audience) doesn't allow digital downloads like Etsy does. She had to pivot from digital invitations to physical products—fill-in-the-blank invitations people would have to handwrite.</p><p>She thought: <em>No one's going to buy these.</em></p><p>She was wrong.</p><p><strong>In this conversation, Amanda reveals:</strong></p><p><strong>The $750 Gamble:</strong> Her first inventory order felt impossible to pay back.

Lance Cayko was learning the multiplier—the business concept that would shape his entire entrepreneurial journey.</p><p>When Lance told his dad he was quitting the family sugar beet farm after one week (couldn't stand the mosquitoes or the work), he made a call that changed everything: "Hey Bruce, I'll do whatever. I'll pick up garbage. Just let me work construction."</p><p>Bruce hired him as a gopher at $7.25/hour. Halfway through that summer, Bruce pulled Lance aside and asked: "What do you think I'm charging the clients?" Lance guessed $7.25. Bruce laughed.

I'll pick up garbage. Just let me work construction."</p><p>Bruce hired him as a gopher at $7.25/hour. Halfway through that summer, Bruce pulled Lance aside and asked: "What do you think I'm charging the clients?" Lance guessed $7.25. Bruce laughed. "No—I'm charging 3-4 times your labor."</p><p>That moment—understanding the multiplier, overhead, profit, and risk—planted a seed that grew into a multi-business empire spanning architecture, real estate development, contracting, and podcasting.</p><p><strong>What makes Lance's story unique:</strong></p><p>Most entrepreneurs do a complete 180 from their education.

The podcast sat on the back burner. Her personal coaching business was paused. She was intensely focused on what seemed like the right path forward.</p><p>Then May happened. Her business partner's father got sick. By August, they'd sold the company. And in that space between what was and what's next, something shifted.</p><p>Sitting in her recliner post-county fair (because yes, entrepreneurship sometimes includes raising 4-H animals), Lindsay experimented with Grok AI. She didn't tell it about her podcast or her business—just answered questions about her history, her beliefs, what matters to her.</p><p>The AI's response? "You should be called the Freedom Engineer."</p><p>Her jaw dropped. That's exactly what she'd been doing all along. The self-doubt that whispered "why would anyone want to learn from you?" evaporated. The fire reignited.</p><p><strong>In this raw year-end reflection, Lindsay shares:</strong></p><p><strong>The Social Media Hook That Sparked Everything:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Michelle Gifford's prompt: "The ultimate plot twist of 2025"</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Why reflecting backward is the key to moving forward</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>How to use this hook for your own year-end content (and why it matters beyond just posting)</li></ol><br/><p><strong>The Questions That Create Clarity:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Where were you last December 26th?

Not from hustle or strategy, but from finally standing in the truth of what she's built for. The solar company checked all the logical boxes—financial security, growth potential, partnership. But it wasn't what God had her cut out for.</p><p>Now? Monthly recurring revenue and digital asset building isn't just what she teaches—it's her non-negotiable truth. The kind you can't articulate fully, you just know in your bones.</p><p><strong>The Permission You Didn't Know You Needed:</strong> You're made for something specific. God has a plan. Even when it looks like you're off track, you're being led exactly where you need to go. The detours aren't delays—they're clarifying moments.</p><p><strong>Your Year-End Reflection Assignment:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Where were you last December 26th?</li><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>What's your ultimate vision now?</li><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>How do you stand differently today than you did then?</li><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Share it (on socials or just with yourself)</li><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Be present in that truth</li></ol><br/><p>If recurring revenue and passive income through digital assets keeps calling to you the way it calls to Lindsay—that's not random.

The podcast sat on the back burner. Her personal coaching business was paused. She was intensely focused on what seemed like the right path forward.</p><p>Then May happened. Her business partner's father got sick. By August, they'd sold the company. And in that space between what was and what's next, something shifted.</p><p>Sitting in her recliner post-county fair (because yes, entrepreneurship sometimes includes raising 4-H animals), Lindsay experimented with Grok AI. She didn't tell it about her podcast or her business—just answered questions about her history, her beliefs, what matters to her.</p><p>The AI's response? "You should be called the Freedom Engineer."</p><p>Her jaw dropped. That's exactly what she'd been doing all along. The self-doubt that whispered "why would anyone want to learn from you?" evaporated. The fire reignited.</p><p><strong>In this raw year-end reflection, Lindsay shares:</strong></p><p><strong>The Social Media Hook That Sparked Everything:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Michelle Gifford's prompt: "The ultimate plot twist of 2025"</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Why reflecting backward is the key to moving forward</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>How to use this hook for your own year-end content (and why it matters beyond just posting)</li></ol><br/><p><strong>The Questions That Create Clarity:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Where were you last December 26th? (Not physically—in life)</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>What were you excited about then that's completely shifted now?</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Who were you listening to, following, or affiliated with?</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>How have YOU changed as a person?</li></ol><br/><p><strong>The Unexpected Journey:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>From solar company co-owner to selling in months</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Why she thought she'd "given up" on her business (spoiler: she'd given up on herself)</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>The AI conversation that changed everything</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>How her podcast jumped from top 5% to top 3% globally since August—without a massive strategy shift</li></ol><br/><p><strong>The Tether Ball Theory of Growth:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Why entrepreneurial growth isn't linear</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>How we spiral up the pole, hitting the same beliefs at different levels</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>The difference between "I'm all in" (head decision) vs. "I'm all in" (soul truth)</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>When your purpose becomes non-negotiable—not because you force it, but because you ARE it</li></ol><br/><p><strong>The Clarifying Detour:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Why the solar company wasn't a mistake—it was necessary</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>How "phenomenal opportunities" can be clarifying moments, not destinations</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>What changed between "doing my business" and being unable to do anything else</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>The difference between logical alignment and soul alignment</li></ol><br/><p><strong>The Breakthrough Moment:</strong> Lindsay's intensity shifted. Not from hustle or strategy, but from finally standing in the truth of what she's built for. The solar company checked all the logical boxes—financial security, growth potential, partnership. But it wasn't what God had her cut out for.</p><p>Now? Monthly recurring revenue and digital asset building isn't just what she teaches—it's her non-negotiable truth. The kind you can't articulate fully, you just know in your bones.</p><p><strong>The Permission You Didn't Know You Needed:</strong> You're made for something specific. God has a plan. Even when it looks like you're off track, you're being led exactly where you need to go. The detours aren't delays—they're clarifying moments.</p><p><strong>Your Year-End Reflection Assignment:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Where were you last December 26th?</li><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>What's your ultimate vision now?</li><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>How do you stand differently today than you did then?</li><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Share it (on socials or just with yourself)</li><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Be present in that truth</li></ol><br/><p>If recurring revenue and passive income through digital assets keeps calling to you the way it calls to Lindsay—that's not random.

And most entrepreneurs don't even realize it yet.</p><p>While you're busy following guru tactics—"start a podcast," "grow your YouTube," "hack Instagram"—AI is replacing entire industries. Website designers, social media managers, copywriters, graphic designers, coaches. All getting replaced by $20/month AI subscriptions.</p><p>Here's the uncomfortable truth: Most people don't care about "human connection" when they can get "good enough" for cheap.</p><p><strong>But there's ONE thing AI can't touch. And it's your only hope.</strong></p><p>In August 2024, I relaunched my coaching business with confidence. Instead, I hit a wall. People were AI-savvy. ChatGPT did the thinking. VAs did execution for pennies. I was competing on SUPPLY—trying to out-supply AI. That's a losing game.</p><p>Then a business owner told me he'd replaced 5 of 6 employees with AI. That's when it clicked: <strong>Stop competing on supply. Start creating DEMAND AI can't fulfill.</strong></p><p><strong>Three AI-Proof Examples:</strong></p><p><strong>Angie</strong> (outdoor trips): AI plans trips. She creates immersive human experiences AI can't replicate.</p><p><strong>Becca</strong> (senior care): AI answers questions. She anticipates needs families don't know they have yet.</p><p><strong>Claudia</strong> (productivity): AI gives generic advice. She offers neurodivergent-specific systems from lived experience.</p><p>None learned new skills. They just <strong>repositioned strategically.</strong></p><p><strong>The Four Pillar Freedom Framework:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>AI-Proof Transformation</strong> - Extract your unique methodology (you already have it)</li><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>Market Validation</strong> - Prove demand BEFORE building</li><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>Scalable Product Ladder</strong> - Strategic offers, not random products</li><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>One Traffic Solution</strong> - Stop trying to be everywhere</li></ol><br/><p>This isn't about working harder.

And most entrepreneurs don't even realize it yet.</p><p>While you're busy following guru tactics—"start a podcast," "grow your YouTube," "hack Instagram"—AI is replacing entire industries. Website designers, social media managers, copywriters, graphic designers, coaches. All getting replaced by $20/month AI subscriptions.</p><p>Here's the uncomfortable truth: Most people don't care about "human connection" when they can get "good enough" for cheap.</p><p><strong>But there's ONE thing AI can't touch. And it's your only hope.</strong></p><p>In August 2024, I relaunched my coaching business with confidence. Instead, I hit a wall. People were AI-savvy. ChatGPT did the thinking. VAs did execution for pennies. I was competing on SUPPLY—trying to out-supply AI. That's a losing game.</p><p>Then a business owner told me he'd replaced 5 of 6 employees with AI. That's when it clicked: <strong>Stop competing on supply. Start creating DEMAND AI can't fulfill.</strong></p><p><strong>Three AI-Proof Examples:</strong></p><p><strong>Angie</strong> (outdoor trips): AI plans trips. She creates immersive human experiences AI can't replicate.</p><p><strong>Becca</strong> (senior care): AI answers questions. She anticipates needs families don't know they have yet.</p><p><strong>Claudia</strong> (productivity): AI gives generic advice. She offers neurodivergent-specific systems from lived experience.</p><p>None learned new skills. They just <strong>repositioned strategically.</strong></p><p><strong>The Four Pillar Freedom Framework:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>AI-Proof Transformation</strong> - Extract your unique methodology (you already have it)</li><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>Market Validation</strong> - Prove demand BEFORE building</li><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>Scalable Product Ladder</strong> - Strategic offers, not random products</li><li data-list="ordered"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>One Traffic Solution</strong> - Stop trying to be everywhere</li></ol><br/><p>This isn't about working harder. It's about strategic positioning that makes AI irrelevant to your business.</p><p><strong>The window is closing. AI tools launch daily. Experts create AI versions of themselves.

Here&apos;s How She Survived with Sonya Corkery</title><itunes:title>She Lost Nearly $1 Million in 90 Days. Here&apos;s How She Survived with Sonya Corkery</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Five days. That's how close Sonya Corkery came to losing everything.</p><p>After nearly two decades building multiple businesses in Australia—including a thriving electrical consulting company—Sonya and her husband watched three major clients fold in just three months during COVID. The damage? Nearly a million dollars in lost net profit. Gone. Overnight.</p><p>With only five days of operating funds left and suppliers waiting to be paid, most business owners would've filed bankruptcy and walked away. But Sonya made a different choice—one that would test every ounce of her financial expertise, resilience, and purpose.</p><p>In this raw and tactical episode, Sonya shares the exact 12-month strategy she used to claw her way back from the brink of business collapse—without filing bankruptcy, without destroying relationships, and without losing her integrity.</p><p><strong>In this powerful conversation, you'll discover:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The one-day rule:</strong> How Sonya gave herself exactly 24 hours to grieve before taking action (and why this mindset saved her business)</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The supplier conversation:</strong> What she said to creditors to get extended payment terms when she had nothing left</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The overdraft strategy:</strong> How she used a term deposit as security to bridge cashflow gaps while earning interest to offset costs</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The Profit First system:</strong> Why having multiple bank accounts structured correctly saved her business when disaster struck</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>Pre-disaster planning:</strong> The financial safety nets you should have in place NOW before you need them (because banks won't help when you're in crisis)</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The vetting process:</strong> How Sonya now screens every potential client before even submitting a tender—including credit checks, entity structure analysis, and director background checks</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The insurance layer:</strong> How to protect 90% of your project value against client bankruptcy (yes, this exists)</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The deeper why question:</strong> Why nearly losing everything forced Sonya to ask "what's beyond this business?" and completely transformed her life vision</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The nomadic dream:</strong> How she and her husband are building a life that allows them to split time between Italy, Thailand, and Australia</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The exit strategy reality check:</strong> Why what you think your business is worth and what someone will pay might be devastatingly different</li></ol><br/><p><strong>But here's what makes this episode truly special:</strong> Sonya doesn't just share her survival story. She breaks down the exact systems, mindsets, and financial strategies that business owners need BEFORE disaster strikes—because when you're drowning, it's too late to learn to swim.</p><p>From cash flow forecasting down to the dollar, to building wealth outside your business so the sale becomes a bonus instead of a necessity, to creating layers of financial protection you hope to never use—this is the episode every business owner needs to hear.</p><p><strong>Fair warning:</strong> If you're not good with numbers, Sonya's going to challenge you. Because whether you like spreadsheets or not, your business survival depends on understanding them. The good news? She makes it make sense.</p><p><strong>The bottom line:</strong> Most businesses fail within the first three years in Australia (85%). Sonya not only survived but thrived through one of the worst financial crises a business can face. Now she's teaching other business owners how to build unshakeable financial foundations so they never have to face what she did.</p><p><strong>Ready to bulletproof your business finances?</strong> Connect with Sonya at <a href="https://clearplanconsulting.com.au" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">clearplanconsulting.com.au</a> for a free 20-minute strategy session.</p><p>Join the free Facebook Community!

That's how close Sonya Corkery came to losing everything.</p><p>After nearly two decades building multiple businesses in Australia—including a thriving electrical consulting company—Sonya and her husband watched three major clients fold in just three months during COVID. The damage? Nearly a million dollars in lost net profit. Gone. Overnight.</p><p>With only five days of operating funds left and suppliers waiting to be paid, most business owners would've filed bankruptcy and walked away. But Sonya made a different choice—one that would test every ounce of her financial expertise, resilience, and purpose.</p><p>In this raw and tactical episode, Sonya shares the exact 12-month strategy she used to claw her way back from the brink of business collapse—without filing bankruptcy, without destroying relationships, and without losing her integrity.</p><p><strong>In this powerful conversation, you'll discover:</strong></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The one-day rule:</strong> How Sonya gave herself exactly 24 hours to grieve before taking action (and why this mindset saved her business)</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The supplier conversation:</strong> What she said to creditors to get extended payment terms when she had nothing left</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The overdraft strategy:</strong> How she used a term deposit as security to bridge cashflow gaps while earning interest to offset costs</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The Profit First system:</strong> Why having multiple bank accounts structured correctly saved her business when disaster struck</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>Pre-disaster planning:</strong> The financial safety nets you should have in place NOW before you need them (because banks won't help when you're in crisis)</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The vetting process:</strong> How Sonya now screens every potential client before even submitting a tender—including credit checks, entity structure analysis, and director background checks</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The insurance layer:</strong> How to protect 90% of your project value against client bankruptcy (yes, this exists)</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The deeper why question:</strong> Why nearly losing everything forced Sonya to ask "what's beyond this business?" and completely transformed her life vision</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The nomadic dream:</strong> How she and her husband are building a life that allows them to split time between Italy, Thailand, and Australia</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span><strong>The exit strategy reality check:</strong> Why what you think your business is worth and what someone will pay might be devastatingly different</li></ol><br/><p><strong>But here's what makes this episode truly special:</strong> Sonya doesn't just share her survival story. She breaks down the exact systems, mindsets, and financial strategies that business owners need BEFORE disaster strikes—because when you're drowning, it's too late to learn to swim.</p><p>From cash flow forecasting down to the dollar, to building wealth outside your business so the sale becomes a bonus instead of a necessity, to creating layers of financial protection you hope to never use—this is the episode every business owner needs to hear.</p><p><strong>Fair warning:</strong> If you're not good with numbers, Sonya's going to challenge you. Because whether you like spreadsheets or not, your business survival depends on understanding them. The good news? She makes it make sense.</p><p><strong>The bottom line:</strong> Most businesses fail within the first three years in Australia (85%). Sonya not only survived but thrived through one of the worst financial crises a business can face. Now she's teaching other business owners how to build unshakeable financial foundations so they never have to face what she did.</p><p><strong>Ready to bulletproof your business finances?</strong> Connect with Sonya at <a href="https://clearplanconsulting.com.au" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">clearplanconsulting.com.au</a> for a free 20-minute strategy session.</p><p>Join the free Facebook Community!

Freedom to build wealth. Freedom to design a life they actually want to live.</p><p>But somewhere along the way, the business becomes a mistress.</p><p>It sits in the corner, quietly demanding attention while your family waits for scraps of your time and energy.</p><p><strong>Chaz Wolfe refused to let that happen.</strong></p><p>Raised by a single mom, Chaz learned grit, work ethic, and that no one was coming to save him. By 25, he'd left his six-figure corporate job to buy his first franchise. By 29, he owned seven locations across three states with 70 employees.</p><p>But he wasn't doing it well.</p><p>He was obsessed with his business—home every night, but not really&nbsp;<em>present.</em></p><p>Today, Chaz is the founder of&nbsp;<strong>Gathering the Kings</strong>, a coaching community for family-driven entrepreneurs who refuse to choose between building wealth and building a legacy.</p><p>And he's learned the secret most entrepreneurs miss:</p><p><strong>You don't lower your obsession with your business. You INCREASE your obsession with your family.</strong></p><p><strong>In this episode, Chaz shares:</strong></p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>Why he left a six-figure corporate job at 25</strong>&nbsp;to buy a franchise (and why his family thought he was crazy)</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The mistake most entrepreneurs make:</strong>&nbsp;Trying to compartmentalize work and family instead of integrating them</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>How to bring your business to the family table:</strong>&nbsp;Your kids should know how to celebrate wins AND navigate challenges with you</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>Why his 9 and 11-year-old daughters own an 8-location vending machine business</strong>&nbsp;(and how it's teaching them wealth principles, not entitlement)</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The entitlement trap:</strong>&nbsp;85% of wealth is first-generation, and most third-generation wealth is GONE. Here's how to pass on the torch without spoiling your kids.</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The stat no one talks about:</strong>&nbsp;1 in 3 children of entrepreneurs struggle with emotional regulation due to stress from the family business (Forbes)</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>Why entrepreneur kids feel "weird":</strong>&nbsp;They don't have friends who live like them—until you get them around OTHER entrepreneur families</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The belief triad hack:</strong>&nbsp;You don't just believe in yourself and your product—you have to believe in your CLIENT (and why most entrepreneurs are accidentally being "mean salespeople")</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>His intentionality strategy:</strong>&nbsp;It's not about spending LESS time on your business—it's about being MORE intentional with your family (even 10 extra minutes changes everything)</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The family mastermind vacation:</strong>&nbsp;How Chaz takes 32 families (150+ people) on a week-long retreat where adults learn legacy principles, kids learn entrepreneurship, and families build lifelong bonds</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>Why 20 families pre-registered for next year—without even knowing the location:</strong>&nbsp;"Just tell me when and where. I'll make my calendar work around it."</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The college conversation:</strong>&nbsp;Why Chaz is teaching his kids to think, create, and OWN instead of defaulting to the "next step"</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>His daughter and the $100M vision:</strong>&nbsp;What happened when his 11-year-old asked about the "$100 million" on his dream board</p><p><strong>Bottom line:</strong></p><p>Your business should serve your family.</p><p>Not the other way around.</p><p>Wealth without legacy is just money that disappears in three generations.</p><p>But when you build WITH your family?

Other businesses will pay you 2-3X that as a freelancer.</strong></p><p>I learned this the hard way.</p><p>I was an office manager making about $23/hour—doing social media, bookkeeping, podcast production, overseeing sales... wearing ALL the hats.</p><p>Later, I found out businesses would pay me&nbsp;<strong>$1,000-$1,500/month JUST for social media management.</strong></p><p>That was a fraction of what I was doing at my job—and nearly a quarter of my entire paycheck.</p><p><strong>For ONE small task.</strong></p><p><strong>In this episode, I'm breaking down:</strong></p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The bridge strategy:</strong>&nbsp;How to replace your W-2 income by freelancing your current skill from home (and why it's easier than you think)</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The math behind $2K/month:</strong>&nbsp;You only need 2-4 clients paying $500-$1,000/month for a service that takes you 8-10 hours. That's $100/hour (way more than your W-2).</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The scalable income model:</strong>&nbsp;How to turn your skill into a COURSE or digital product so you build it once and profit multiple times (this is where freedom lives)</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>Why $2K matters:</strong>&nbsp;It's not about stopping there—it's about proving the model WORKS. Once you hit $2K consistently, $4K, $8K, $10K is just duplication.</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>Product ladder strategy:</strong>&nbsp;If your main course is $400-500, you only need 4 customers/month to hit $2K. Add upsells or 1:1 coaching? Now each customer is worth $900-$1,200. You need even FEWER people.</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The possibility mindset shift:</strong>&nbsp;When you understand what's POSSIBLE, you stop feeling stuck. You're not trapped—you just haven't seen the path yet.</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>Why "just four clients" changes everything:</strong>&nbsp;It's not a mountain. It's a small, achievable goal.

Commenting on every thread. Inviting everyone you can find.</p><p>And sure, you get a few people into your Facebook group.</p><p><strong>But now you're exhausted.</strong></p><p>And you still have to spend all that energy keeping them engaged.</p><p><strong>There's a better way.</strong></p><p>In this episode, I'm breaking down how to build a SYSTEM that consistently drives traffic to your community—without the hustle, without the spam, without burning out.</p><p><strong>Here's what you'll learn:</strong></p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>Why "hustle culture" group growth doesn't work</strong>&nbsp;(and what to do instead)</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The automated funnel strategy:</strong>&nbsp;Lead magnet → Bonus invitation to your group → Email list. You're growing your community AND your email list at the same time.</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The gap I had for YEARS:</strong>&nbsp;I never invited my podcast guests to my group. Don't ask me why. But once I started? Game changer.</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>A podcast strategy you've never considered:</strong>&nbsp;Feature people who are your IDEAL CLIENT and invite them all to your group (brilliant, right?)</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>Why tracking your group growth is non-negotiable:</strong>&nbsp;If you're not watching the numbers weekly, your group won't grow. When you track it, it stays top of mind—and you'll course-correct when it dips.</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The difference between a burst of energy vs. a system:</strong>&nbsp;Getting 100 people in one week because you hustled is NOT the same as consistently adding 10-20 people every week through automation.</p><p><strong>Bottom line:</strong></p><p>Your business will be successful when you have SYSTEMS in place that consistently grow your audience.</p><p>Not hustle.

Commenting on every thread. Inviting everyone you can find.</p><p>And sure, you get a few people into your Facebook group.</p><p><strong>But now you're exhausted.</strong></p><p>And you still have to spend all that energy keeping them engaged.</p><p><strong>There's a better way.</strong></p><p>In this episode, I'm breaking down how to build a SYSTEM that consistently drives traffic to your community—without the hustle, without the spam, without burning out.</p><p><strong>Here's what you'll learn:</strong></p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>Why "hustle culture" group growth doesn't work</strong>&nbsp;(and what to do instead)</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The automated funnel strategy:</strong>&nbsp;Lead magnet → Bonus invitation to your group → Email list. You're growing your community AND your email list at the same time.</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The gap I had for YEARS:</strong>&nbsp;I never invited my podcast guests to my group. Don't ask me why. But once I started? Game changer.</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>A podcast strategy you've never considered:</strong>&nbsp;Feature people who are your IDEAL CLIENT and invite them all to your group (brilliant, right?)</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>Why tracking your group growth is non-negotiable:</strong>&nbsp;If you're not watching the numbers weekly, your group won't grow. When you track it, it stays top of mind—and you'll course-correct when it dips.</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The difference between a burst of energy vs. a system:</strong>&nbsp;Getting 100 people in one week because you hustled is NOT the same as consistently adding 10-20 people every week through automation.</p><p><strong>Bottom line:</strong></p><p>Your business will be successful when you have SYSTEMS in place that consistently grow your audience.</p><p>Not hustle. Not burnout. Systems.</p><p><strong>Stop begging people to join your group.

Her clients disappeared. Her business name didn't make sense anymore.</p><p>She was a single mom with a 3-year-old, waiting tables in the morning and doing client work at night—just trying to keep the lights on.</p><p><strong>Most people would've quit.</strong></p><p>But Kalen didn't.</p><p>She rebuilt. Twice.</p><p>Today, she's a fractional CMO, founder of KMC Digital, and author of&nbsp;<em>The Revenue Runway</em>—a book about the mindset shifts that actually move the needle in business.</p><p><strong>In this episode, Kalen gets brutally honest about:</strong></p><p>→ Why she became an "accidental entrepreneur" (and how a BlackBerry attachment and a baby on the way changed everything)</p><p>→ The moment she lost every client during her divorce—and why she didn't let it end her</p><p>→ Why she went BACK into the workforce twice (and why that's not failure—it's strategy)</p><p>→ The lies being sold about "glamorous entrepreneurship" (and why your bank account going red is normal when you're building)</p><p>→ Why&nbsp;<em>The Revenue Runway</em>&nbsp;isn't a marketing book—it's a mindset book (because skills aren't the problem)</p><p>→ The 3 pillars you need to nail before anything else: your offer, your avatar, your message</p><p>→ Why she tells startups NOT to build a website first (and what to do instead)</p><p>→ What a fractional CMO actually does (and how interviewing a company's team reveals everything)</p><p>→ How to land corporate clients without being intimidated by their size (hint: they're just people with problems)</p><p><strong>Bottom line:</strong></p><p>Entrepreneurship isn't glamorous. It's messy, hard, and full of setbacks.</p><p>But if you don't quit? You learn. You grow.

Her clients disappeared. Her business name didn't make sense anymore.</p><p>She was a single mom with a 3-year-old, waiting tables in the morning and doing client work at night—just trying to keep the lights on.</p><p><strong>Most people would've quit.</strong></p><p>But Kalen didn't.</p><p>She rebuilt. Twice.</p><p>Today, she's a fractional CMO, founder of KMC Digital, and author of&nbsp;<em>The Revenue Runway</em>—a book about the mindset shifts that actually move the needle in business.</p><p><strong>In this episode, Kalen gets brutally honest about:</strong></p><p>→ Why she became an "accidental entrepreneur" (and how a BlackBerry attachment and a baby on the way changed everything)</p><p>→ The moment she lost every client during her divorce—and why she didn't let it end her</p><p>→ Why she went BACK into the workforce twice (and why that's not failure—it's strategy)</p><p>→ The lies being sold about "glamorous entrepreneurship" (and why your bank account going red is normal when you're building)</p><p>→ Why&nbsp;<em>The Revenue Runway</em>&nbsp;isn't a marketing book—it's a mindset book (because skills aren't the problem)</p><p>→ The 3 pillars you need to nail before anything else: your offer, your avatar, your message</p><p>→ Why she tells startups NOT to build a website first (and what to do instead)</p><p>→ What a fractional CMO actually does (and how interviewing a company's team reveals everything)</p><p>→ How to land corporate clients without being intimidated by their size (hint: they're just people with problems)</p><p><strong>Bottom line:</strong></p><p>Entrepreneurship isn't glamorous. It's messy, hard, and full of setbacks.</p><p>But if you don't quit? You learn. You grow. You rebuild.</p><p>And eventually, you win.</p><p><strong>If you're in the middle of the mess right now, this episode is for you.</strong></p><h2><strong>ABOUT KALEN COTTO:</strong></h2><p>Kalen Cotto is a fractional CMO, founder of&nbsp;<strong>KMC Digital</strong>, and author of&nbsp;<em>The Revenue Runway</em>.

And there's another part where you need to be lighthearted, curious, and willing to experiment.</p><p><strong>Most entrepreneurs get this backwards.</strong></p><p>They're playful about their commitment (quitting when things get hard, pivoting every time a shiny object appears, fragmenting their energy across multiple opportunities).</p><p>And they're SERIOUS about their strategy (attached to one way of doing things, stressed when it doesn't work immediately, quitting before they've actually tested anything).</p><p><strong>That's the recipe for burnout. And failure.</strong></p><p>In this episode, I'm breaking down where to be serious and where to be playful—so you can build something that actually lasts.</p><p><strong>Here's what you'll learn:</strong></p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>Where to be SERIOUS:</strong>&nbsp;Your commitment. Take quitting off the table. If there was no Plan B, no option to go back to a job, what would you do? THAT'S the energy you need.</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>What "all in" actually means:</strong>&nbsp;Your complete and undivided attention, intention, and focus on ONE thing. Not "I'm committed but also doing three other side projects." That's fragmented energy. And fragmented energy doesn't build traction.</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>Where to be PLAYFUL:</strong>&nbsp;Your strategy and execution. Test your platform. Test your messaging. Test your demand angles. Be curious. Experiment. Adjust. This is where you get to play.</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>Why people quit:</strong>&nbsp;They get too serious about the execution (stressed when a post doesn't get engagement, discouraged when a strategy doesn't work immediately). When you're playful about testing, you don't quit—you just try something else.</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The 30-day test:</strong>&nbsp;Commit to testing ONE thing for 30 days. Review what worked. Double down. Test again. Repeat. This is how you find what works without burning out.</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The hardest part of entrepreneurship:</strong>&nbsp;The interim between starting and "it's finally working." That gap is brutal. And it's why your commitment (the SERIOUS part) has to be rock solid.</p><p><strong>Bottom line:</strong></p><p>Be serious about your commitment. Not quitting is non-negotiable.</p><p>Be playful in your approach. Test, experiment, adjust, and stay curious.</p><p><strong>When you get this right? Everything changes.</strong></p><p>Your energy stays focused. Your strategy evolves. Your business grows.</p><p>And you don't burn out chasing the next shiny thing.</p><p><strong>What are YOU committed to? And where could you be more playful?</strong></p><p>Have a burning question?

Who ARE You?&quot; — The Question That Changed Everything With Stephanie Pierce</title><itunes:title>&quot;I Don&apos;t Care About Your Diagnosis. Who ARE You?&quot; — The Question That Changed Everything With Stephanie Pierce</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Stephanie Pierce has dyspraxia and bipolar disorder.</p><p>She had a terrible stutter. Spoke so fast people couldn't understand her. Wanted to be a lawyer but couldn't imagine standing in front of a courtroom.</p><p><strong>For years, her disability WAS her identity.</strong></p><p>The first thing she'd tell people? "I have dyspraxia."</p><p>Until a friend from Venezuela—who'd fled a collapsing economy where people hunted for food—called her out:</p><p><em>"Stephanie, you're from the States. You grew up in a decent family. You never had to hunt for food. But you let your disability define so much of who you are. I don't care about your diagnosis. I want to know who YOU are as a person."</em></p><p><strong>That moment in 2017 changed everything.</strong></p><p>Today, Stephanie is a published cookbook author (with three books on Amazon and a fourth coming with a traditional publisher), a cooking instructor living in Germany, and has traveled to 35+ countries—building a business from her laptop wherever she lands.</p><p><strong>In this episode, we dig into:</strong></p><p>→ The mindset shift that freed her from letting limitations define her (and why ALL of us do this—whether we have a visible disability or not)</p><p>→ How she turned "Picky Tongue" into a memorable brand (and the funny story behind the name)</p><p>→ Why her second book,&nbsp;<em>Idiot Proof</em>, was designed specifically for neurodivergent people—huge fonts, every step photographed, high-contrast images</p><p>→ The three years she spent teaching cooking to people with disabilities in London (and why it nearly destroyed her health—shingles, burnout, total exhaustion)</p><p>→ Why she keeps her business MOBILE instead of opening a brick-and-mortar school (her laptop, her pocket, her freedom)</p><p>→ The power of letting go of tasks that don't interest you (and why forcing yourself through them actually slows you down)</p><p>→ Her top 3 must-see countries for travelers: Israel, Slovenia, and... Russia? (Yep. And her reason will surprise you.)</p><p><strong>Here's what stuck with me:</strong></p><p>Stephanie said she spent years feeling "disabled by her own disability"—weak, powerless, unable to express herself the way she thought she "should."</p><p>But once she stopped leading with her diagnosis and started showing up as HERSELF, everything shifted.</p><p><strong>This episode is for anyone holding back because of a story they've been telling themselves.</strong></p><p>Maybe it's a diagnosis. Maybe it's imposter syndrome. Maybe it's fear.</p><p><strong>But if Stephanie can publish books, teach cooking in her FIFTH language, and travel the world while running her business from her laptop—what story are YOU ready to let go of?</strong></p><h2><strong>ABOUT STEPHANIE PIERCE:</strong></h2><p>Stephanie Pierce is the founder of&nbsp;<strong>Picky Tongue Cooking</strong>, author of three cookbooks (<em>Picky Tongue in the Cookbook</em>,&nbsp;<em>Idiot Proof</em>, and&nbsp;<em>Lockdown</em>), and a cooking instructor currently based in Germany. She teaches cooking to both neurodivergent and neurotypical students, with a focus on making cooking accessible for people with disabilities, visual impairments, and processing disorders. Her upcoming book,&nbsp;<em>Picky Tongue Sassy</em>, explores aphrodisiac cuisine with stories and recipes. Stephanie has traveled to 35+ countries, speaks five languages, and builds community wherever she goes.</p><p><strong>Website:</strong>&nbsp;PickyTongueCooking.com (launching soon)</p><p><strong>Books available on Amazon</strong></p><p>Join the free Facebook Community!

Spoke so fast people couldn't understand her. Wanted to be a lawyer but couldn't imagine standing in front of a courtroom.</p><p><strong>For years, her disability WAS her identity.</strong></p><p>The first thing she'd tell people? "I have dyspraxia."</p><p>Until a friend from Venezuela—who'd fled a collapsing economy where people hunted for food—called her out:</p><p><em>"Stephanie, you're from the States. You grew up in a decent family. You never had to hunt for food. But you let your disability define so much of who you are. I don't care about your diagnosis. I want to know who YOU are as a person."</em></p><p><strong>That moment in 2017 changed everything.</strong></p><p>Today, Stephanie is a published cookbook author (with three books on Amazon and a fourth coming with a traditional publisher), a cooking instructor living in Germany, and has traveled to 35+ countries—building a business from her laptop wherever she lands.</p><p><strong>In this episode, we dig into:</strong></p><p>→ The mindset shift that freed her from letting limitations define her (and why ALL of us do this—whether we have a visible disability or not)</p><p>→ How she turned "Picky Tongue" into a memorable brand (and the funny story behind the name)</p><p>→ Why her second book,&nbsp;<em>Idiot Proof</em>, was designed specifically for neurodivergent people—huge fonts, every step photographed, high-contrast images</p><p>→ The three years she spent teaching cooking to people with disabilities in London (and why it nearly destroyed her health—shingles, burnout, total exhaustion)</p><p>→ Why she keeps her business MOBILE instead of opening a brick-and-mortar school (her laptop, her pocket, her freedom)</p><p>→ The power of letting go of tasks that don't interest you (and why forcing yourself through them actually slows you down)</p><p>→ Her top 3 must-see countries for travelers: Israel, Slovenia, and... Russia? (Yep. And her reason will surprise you.)</p><p><strong>Here's what stuck with me:</strong></p><p>Stephanie said she spent years feeling "disabled by her own disability"—weak, powerless, unable to express herself the way she thought she "should."</p><p>But once she stopped leading with her diagnosis and started showing up as HERSELF, everything shifted.</p><p><strong>This episode is for anyone holding back because of a story they've been telling themselves.</strong></p><p>Maybe it's a diagnosis. Maybe it's imposter syndrome. Maybe it's fear.</p><p><strong>But if Stephanie can publish books, teach cooking in her FIFTH language, and travel the world while running her business from her laptop—what story are YOU ready to let go of?</strong></p><h2><strong>ABOUT STEPHANIE PIERCE:</strong></h2><p>Stephanie Pierce is the founder of&nbsp;<strong>Picky Tongue Cooking</strong>, author of three cookbooks (<em>Picky Tongue in the Cookbook</em>,&nbsp;<em>Idiot Proof</em>, and&nbsp;<em>Lockdown</em>), and a cooking instructor currently based in Germany. She teaches cooking to both neurodivergent and neurotypical students, with a focus on making cooking accessible for people with disabilities, visual impairments, and processing disorders. Her upcoming book,&nbsp;<em>Picky Tongue Sassy</em>, explores aphrodisiac cuisine with stories and recipes. Stephanie has traveled to 35+ countries, speaks five languages, and builds community wherever she goes.</p><p><strong>Website:</strong>&nbsp;PickyTongueCooking.com (launching soon)</p><p><strong>Books available on Amazon</strong></p><p>Join the free Facebook Community!

But because they skipped the ONE step that makes everything else work:&nbsp;<strong>nailing the transformation.</strong></p><p>You might think you know what people need. You might be passionate about solving a specific problem. But here's the hard truth:&nbsp;<strong>What you THINK people want isn't always what they'll actually PAY for.</strong></p><p>In this episode, I'm breaking down how to validate your transformation BEFORE you build anything—so you don't waste months (or years) creating an offer that doesn't land.</p><p><strong>Here's what you'll learn:</strong></p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>Why "one transformation" is the foundation</strong>&nbsp;of your entire business (and why getting this wrong derails everything else)</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The brainstorming process</strong>&nbsp;to evaluate if your idea solves a REAL problem people are desperate to fix</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>How to do market research</strong>&nbsp;without feeling awkward or salesy (workshops, interviews, and the exact questions to ask)</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The critical difference between people who VALUE MONEY vs. people who VALUE TIME</strong>&nbsp;(and why this determines how much they'll pay)</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>My biggest mistake:</strong>&nbsp;Going after people who wanted the problem fixed more than THEY did—and why that's a recipe for burnout</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The pivot that changed everything:</strong>&nbsp;How I shifted from helping people "make passive income fast" to helping business owners "get their time back" (and why one pays WAY more than the other)</p><p><strong>Bottom line:</strong></p><p>People don't pay for features. They pay for FEELINGS.</p><p>And if you don't know what feeling your transformation creates, you're guessing—and guessing is expensive.</p><p><strong>This episode will save you months of trial and error.</strong></p><p>Have a burning question?

But because they skipped the ONE step that makes everything else work:&nbsp;<strong>nailing the transformation.</strong></p><p>You might think you know what people need. You might be passionate about solving a specific problem. But here's the hard truth:&nbsp;<strong>What you THINK people want isn't always what they'll actually PAY for.</strong></p><p>In this episode, I'm breaking down how to validate your transformation BEFORE you build anything—so you don't waste months (or years) creating an offer that doesn't land.</p><p><strong>Here's what you'll learn:</strong></p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>Why "one transformation" is the foundation</strong>&nbsp;of your entire business (and why getting this wrong derails everything else)</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The brainstorming process</strong>&nbsp;to evaluate if your idea solves a REAL problem people are desperate to fix</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>How to do market research</strong>&nbsp;without feeling awkward or salesy (workshops, interviews, and the exact questions to ask)</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The critical difference between people who VALUE MONEY vs. people who VALUE TIME</strong>&nbsp;(and why this determines how much they'll pay)</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>My biggest mistake:</strong>&nbsp;Going after people who wanted the problem fixed more than THEY did—and why that's a recipe for burnout</p><p>→&nbsp;<strong>The pivot that changed everything:</strong>&nbsp;How I shifted from helping people "make passive income fast" to helping business owners "get their time back" (and why one pays WAY more than the other)</p><p><strong>Bottom line:</strong></p><p>People don't pay for features. They pay for FEELINGS.</p><p>And if you don't know what feeling your transformation creates, you're guessing—and guessing is expensive.</p><p><strong>This episode will save you months of trial and error.</strong></p><p>Have a burning question?

You dive in full force. Then another opportunity pops up and suddenly you're chasing that instead. Before you know it, you've started and stopped a dozen things and haven't finished any of them.</p><p><strong>Sound familiar?</strong></p><p>This isn't about lack of motivation or poor time management. It's about&nbsp;<strong>discipline</strong>—specifically, learning to say NO to things that pull you off course.</p><p>After years of falling into this trap (and spending tens of thousands of dollars chasing shiny objects), I've learned that&nbsp;<strong>every strategy works... if you actually stick with it.</strong></p><p><strong>In this episode, I'm sharing 3 strategies to cure your EED:</strong></p><p><strong>1. Pray about it (and put a pin in it)</strong>&nbsp;Don't buy that course or jump on that opportunity in the moment. Save it. If it's meant to be, it'll still be there later. Most of the time? You'll forget about it because you already had the answer.</p><p><strong>2. Test your current system first</strong>&nbsp;Make a rule: You can't buy anything new until you've time-tested what you're already doing. Keep a "someday list" for ideas, but commit to your current strategy.</p><p><strong>3.

In this powerful episode, Claudia Rucker, founder of Beyond Ordinary Business, shares her journey from entrepreneurial success to a dark night of the soul—and how she discovered the pattern keeping so many ambitious entrepreneurs stuck in what she calls "entrepreneurial poverty" (time poor, energy poor, and money poor). Claudia reveals why the hustle mentality that works in the beginning can become toxic as you scale, and introduces a radically different approach: reverse engineering your business around your actual life capacity. Learn how to identify profit problems versus sales problems, build proactive client experiences instead of reactive customer service, and create sustainable growth without sacrificing your wellbeing. If you're an ambitious entrepreneur who's tired of feeling trapped by your own business, this conversation will shift everything.</p><p>Claudia Rucker is the founder of Beyond Ordinary Business and a passionate advocate for entrepreneurs who refuse to sacrifice their lives for success. Born into an entrepreneurial family and starting her first business at 16, Claudia's journey took her from studying international business in Switzerland to the fast-paced world of international manufacturing, and eventually to building a thriving retail business that earned recognition from the California State Senate.</p><p>But behind the awards and outward success, Claudia found herself trapped in what she calls "entrepreneurial poverty"—time poor, energy poor, and money poor. After reaching a breaking point that led to a dark night of the soul, she made a life-changing decision to choose herself and reverse engineer a business model that serves entrepreneurs rather than enslaves them.</p><p>Today, Claudia specializes in helping service-based business owners navigate profitable growth without burnout. She guides ambitious entrepreneurs to understand their true capacity, build proactive systems, and create businesses that align with their values and life stage.

It's freedom from the self-doubt, anxiety, and deep-seated fears that limit our potential. It's escaping the endless chase for external validation so you can lead with authenticity and enjoy the success you've already created."</em></p><p>Here's the truth Susanne has learned after 24 years as an executive coach:</p><p>Life is hard. The bigger your success, the MORE problems come.</p><p>So don't wait for the problems to end. They won't.</p><p>Instead, focus on what you CAN control.</p><p>The Daily Disciplines Framework</p><p>Susanne shares her 5-7 daily disciplines that put her in the best possible state:</p><ul><li>Sleep 7-8 hours</li><li>5-minute morning practice (set an intention + write down exciting thoughts)</li><li>1 hour of exercise</li><li>Eat whole foods (one ingredient - know what's in it)</li><li>Bake in something fun every day</li></ul><br/><p>The kicker?&nbsp;When she has really bad days, it's because she's done NONE of these things.</p><p>And that's okay. The purpose of knowing your daily disciplines is that you know how to get back on track.</p><p>The Morning Practice That Changes Everything</p><p>5 minutes. That's it.</p><ol><li>Write down an intention for who you want to BE today</li><li>Write all the exciting thoughts you could choose to think about the day</li></ol><br/><p>Do this for ONE MONTH and see what changes.</p><p>It can feel phony at first. Do it anyway.</p><p>Susanne's Story of Rebuilding</p><p>Years ago, a business partner stole her work. She went from six figures to ZERO overnight. Two kids. Had to rebuild everything.</p><p>So she found ONE WIN every day.</p><p>Sometimes it was: "When I picked my kids up from school, they're alive."</p><p>She gave 90% of her internal attention to that ONE win.</p><p>My Story</p><p>I shared something vulnerable in this episode. When we moved to Idaho and I became a stay-at-home mom (my dream), I fell into the deepest depression of my life.</p><p>My practice:&nbsp;"Just for today, I will find ONE thing to be okay with."</p><p>It took every ounce of energy. It felt fake and dumb.</p><p>But I kept doing it. Every day got MICRO brighter.</p><p>I pulled myself out. One thing at a time.</p><p>The Truth About Negative Thinking</p><p>It's an addiction.</p><p>The more you think a thought, the more you'll think it. Your brain literally grows neurons down that highway.</p><p>Einstein said: "If we knew the power of one negative thought, we would never think it."</p><p>The Thought Replacement Exercise</p><p>When you feel bad:</p><ol><li>Write down what you've been thinking</li><li>Ask: How do these thoughts make me feel?</li><li>Write alternative thoughts you could choose</li><li>Ask: How would someone I admire think about this?</li></ol><br/><p>You're giving your brain CHOICES.</p><p>The Fear Conversation</p><p>We dive deep into how fear drives our lives:</p><ul><li>Why we don't speak up in meetings</li><li>Why we're afraid to ask questions</li><li>How negative thinking becomes a habit</li><li>Why the Instagram "six figures in 90 days" is all lies</li></ul><br/><p>Susanne's advice?&nbsp;Try to do NOTHING from fear.</p><p>Chase the fear down. It usually ends at something absurd like "I'll be homeless and unloved."</p><p>Then ask: What if it goes RIGHT?</p><p>One Final Truth:</p><p>You can't serve others by worrying about your own failures.</p><p>If ONE person gets ONE thing from this conversation, it's a success.</p><p>So ask yourself: What are MY daily disciplines? What makes a great day for ME?</p><p>Then do those things. As often as you can.</p><p>And when you have a bad day? You'll know exactly how to get back on track.</p><p>ABOUT SUSANNE BIRO:</p><p>Susanne Biro is an executive coach with 24 years of experience working with C-suite and executive-level leaders worldwide.

One thing at a time.</p><p>The Truth About Negative Thinking</p><p>It's an addiction.</p><p>The more you think a thought, the more you'll think it. Your brain literally grows neurons down that highway.</p><p>Einstein said: "If we knew the power of one negative thought, we would never think it."</p><p>The Thought Replacement Exercise</p><p>When you feel bad:</p><ol><li>Write down what you've been thinking</li><li>Ask: How do these thoughts make me feel?</li><li>Write alternative thoughts you could choose</li><li>Ask: How would someone I admire think about this?</li></ol><br/><p>You're giving your brain CHOICES.</p><p>The Fear Conversation</p><p>We dive deep into how fear drives our lives:</p><ul><li>Why we don't speak up in meetings</li><li>Why we're afraid to ask questions</li><li>How negative thinking becomes a habit</li><li>Why the Instagram "six figures in 90 days" is all lies</li></ul><br/><p>Susanne's advice?&nbsp;Try to do NOTHING from fear.</p><p>Chase the fear down. It usually ends at something absurd like "I'll be homeless and unloved."</p><p>Then ask: What if it goes RIGHT?</p><p>One Final Truth:</p><p>You can't serve others by worrying about your own failures.</p><p>If ONE person gets ONE thing from this conversation, it's a success.</p><p>So ask yourself: What are MY daily disciplines? What makes a great day for ME?</p><p>Then do those things. As often as you can.</p><p>And when you have a bad day? You'll know exactly how to get back on track.</p><p>ABOUT SUSANNE BIRO:</p><p>Susanne Biro is an executive coach with 24 years of experience working with C-suite and executive-level leaders worldwide.

Waiting for the right timing. Second-guessing yourself. Paralyzed by fear. Stuck between knowing what you want and actually doing something about it.</p><p>My guest today, Jeanne Olmor, knows that place intimately. And she's going to show you how to break free.</p><p><strong>Jeanne's story will blow your mind:</strong></p><p>At 54, she was a single mom, a coach for 8 years, drowning in debt. All the old strategies—networking, speaking, endless hustle—weren't creating the income she needed.</p><p>Then one morning, a voice in her head asked:&nbsp;<strong>"If not now, when?"</strong></p><p>She couldn't answer it. Next year? Two years? Six years when she'd be 60 and still broke?</p><p>So she got out of bed and decided:&nbsp;<strong>NOW.</strong></p><p>What happened next? She got online, learned organic social media marketing, and hit&nbsp;<strong>$1 million in 17 months at 92% profit</strong>—with no ads, no funnels, barely any branding.</p><p>But here's what makes Jeanne's story so powerful: It wasn't luck. It wasn't magic. It was a mindset shift.</p><p><strong>In this episode, Jeanne reveals:</strong></p><p><strong>The universal disease keeping entrepreneurs stuck:</strong>&nbsp;Over-fear. We're all afraid, but when fear paralyzes you from taking action, you're living in anxiety and torture.</p><p><strong>The two types of people:</strong>&nbsp;Those who SAY they want success but won't do what it takes (illegal, immoral, or unethical aside). And those who will do whatever it takes. Which one are you?</p><p><strong>Why "I'm waiting until..." is a trap:</strong>&nbsp;Waiting for more clarity, more money, the right time, perfect conditions—these are excuses dressed up as wisdom.</p><p><strong>The commitment test:</strong>&nbsp;On a scale of 1-10, how committed are you to getting what you want? If you're at a 5, you're neutral. You don't actually want it enough.</p><p><strong>Her "make lemonade" philosophy:</strong>&nbsp;When she paid $10K for a program that didn't deliver, she didn't complain. She asked, "How do I make this work?" That attitude changed everything.</p><p><strong>The clarity exercise anyone can do:</strong>&nbsp;Get a piece of paper. Write two columns: What I DON'T want and What I DO want. Then ask yourself: Do I want this enough to invest? To take action? If not, scratch it off.</p><p><strong>The WHO, not HOW principle:</strong>&nbsp;Stop trying to figure everything out yourself. Time is the one thing you can't get more of. Find the person who knows what you need and collapse time.</p><p><strong>Why "it's all within you" is nonsense:</strong>&nbsp;If everything were within us, we wouldn't need law school or medical school. You need guidance, mentorship, and expertise you don't have.</p><p><strong>The dating analogy for hiring help:</strong>&nbsp;One bad accountant doesn't mean you give up. You keep interviewing until you find the right one. Same with coaches, service providers, everything.</p><p><strong>Jeanne's non-negotiables as a single mom:</strong>&nbsp;She never lowered her standards. No TV babysitting her kids. No skimping on their activities and education. No settling for mediocrity. That mindset translated to her business.</p><p><strong>The power of "even when I lose, I win":</strong>&nbsp;When things go wrong, suspend judgment. Look for the arc of the story. Often what seems like failure is actually redirection.</p><p><strong>The harsh truth about wanting success:</strong>&nbsp;If you're not willing to invest time, money, or energy... if you love talking about your dreams more than executing them... you need to be honest with yourself. Maybe you'd rather just have a job. And that's okay. Just stop torturing yourself with the in-between.</p><p><strong>My favorite moment:</strong></p><p>Jeanne said, "The worst place to be is unclear in any part of your life. You've got one foot in, one foot out. That's purgatory."</p><p>She's right. And if you're living in that purgatory right now—saying you want to build a business but not taking action—this episode is your wake-up call.</p><p><strong>The question you need to answer today:</strong></p><p><strong>If not now, when?</strong></p><p>Really answer it. Not next year. Not when conditions are perfect. Not when you feel ready.</p><p>When?</p><p>Because if you can't answer that question with anything other than "now," you're lying to yourself about how badly you want this.</p><p>Listen to this episode. Let Jeanne's story shake you out of complacency.</p><p>Then decide: Are you going to stay stuck in the waiting place? Or are you going to move?</p><p><strong>ABOUT JEANNE OLMOR:</strong></p><p>Jeanne Olmor is a business coach specializing in helping coaches, consultants, and service providers build profitable online businesses. After 8 years of traditional coaching that left her deep in debt as a single mother, Jeanne learned organic social media marketing at age 54 and scaled to $1 million in revenue in just 17 months—at 92% profit margins—without ads, funnels, or fancy branding.</p><p>Now she helps hundreds of clients replicate her success using simple, organic strategies that actually work.

You're staring at this massive course project thinking, "How do I find time to build ALL of this before I can make money?"</p><p>Here's the secret:&nbsp;<strong>You don't.</strong></p><p>Sell your course first. Then build it module by module while your students go through it.</p><p>Sounds backwards? It's actually genius.</p><p><strong>Why drip delivery makes pre-selling work:</strong></p><p>You're not scrambling. You build Module 1, deliver it, then create Module 2 while students implement Module 1. It's rhythmic, manageable, way less pressure.</p><p>Your students actually get BETTER results. They're not overwhelmed by 40 videos at once. They absorb content, do the homework, stay accountable because the next module drops next Tuesday.</p><p><strong>The tool that makes this magical:</strong></p><p>Drip courses that automatically unlock content at intervals. Plus ringless voicemail – imagine your student finishes Module 3 and gets a personal voice message from you saying, "I just saw you completed Module 3! How's it going?"</p><p>That's not just a course. That's mentorship.</p><p><strong>The truth:</strong>&nbsp;Most people never launch because they think they need everything perfect first. That's paralyzing.</p><p>Pre-selling removes that barrier. You make money NOW while building in manageable pieces.</p><p><strong>Join me Wednesday at 8:30 AM Pacific</strong>&nbsp;for my free Clarity on Your Course workshop. I'll show you how to structure, pre-sell, and use drip delivery to make launching actually easy.</p><p>Register free:&nbsp;<strong>bizinaboxsolutions.com/courses</strong></p><p>Stop waiting.

You're staring at this massive course project thinking, "How do I find time to build ALL of this before I can make money?"</p><p>Here's the secret:&nbsp;<strong>You don't.</strong></p><p>Sell your course first. Then build it module by module while your students go through it.</p><p>Sounds backwards? It's actually genius.</p><p><strong>Why drip delivery makes pre-selling work:</strong></p><p>You're not scrambling. You build Module 1, deliver it, then create Module 2 while students implement Module 1. It's rhythmic, manageable, way less pressure.</p><p>Your students actually get BETTER results. They're not overwhelmed by 40 videos at once. They absorb content, do the homework, stay accountable because the next module drops next Tuesday.</p><p><strong>The tool that makes this magical:</strong></p><p>Drip courses that automatically unlock content at intervals. Plus ringless voicemail – imagine your student finishes Module 3 and gets a personal voice message from you saying, "I just saw you completed Module 3! How's it going?"</p><p>That's not just a course. That's mentorship.</p><p><strong>The truth:</strong>&nbsp;Most people never launch because they think they need everything perfect first. That's paralyzing.</p><p>Pre-selling removes that barrier. You make money NOW while building in manageable pieces.</p><p><strong>Join me Wednesday at 8:30 AM Pacific</strong>&nbsp;for my free Clarity on Your Course workshop. I'll show you how to structure, pre-sell, and use drip delivery to make launching actually easy.</p><p>Register free:&nbsp;<strong>bizinaboxsolutions.com/courses</strong></p><p>Stop waiting.

Maybe it's launching that offer. Maybe it's raising your prices.

Not experienced enough.</p><p><strong>Here's what I learned:</strong>&nbsp;That voice?

"I'm not enough. Someone else knows more than me. Who am I to teach this?"</p><p>My friend put her fist down on the table, looked me dead in the eye, and said five words that I didn't believe at the time:&nbsp;<strong>"You are the real deal."</strong></p><p>I'm sharing this because I know you're holding yourself back from something right now. Maybe it's launching that offer. Maybe it's raising your prices. Maybe it's finally putting yourself out there as the expert you actually are.</p><p>And there's a voice in your head saying you're not ready. Not qualified enough. Not experienced enough.</p><p><strong>Here's what I learned:</strong>&nbsp;That voice? It's actually proof you're NOT the problem you think you are.</p><p>In this episode, I'm sharing:</p><ul><li>The phrase I say to myself in the mirror when imposter syndrome creeps in (it feels weird at first, but it works)</li><li>Why your self-awareness is actually evidence that you're the real deal</li><li>The "energetic bank account" concept that explains why this takes time (and why that's okay)</li></ul><br/><p><strong>The truth is:</strong>&nbsp;It took me four years from hearing "you're the real deal" to actually FEELING like the real deal. But now? I'm there. And I want to shortcut that journey for you.</p><p>If you're waiting to feel qualified before you step into your calling, this episode will help you stop waiting.</p><p>You are already the real deal. Now let me show you how to believe it.</p><p>Biz in a Box CRM is the ultimate all-in-one solution designed to simplify and scale your business.

It's hard to know what to do anymore or who to trust.</p><p>That's why I brought on John Horn from Stub Group to have a real conversation about how you can actually experience ROI from your ads – even if you're in a crowded, competitive market.</p><p><strong>In this episode, we dig into:</strong></p><p><strong>Why I wanted John specifically:</strong>&nbsp;His agency has worked with over 2,000 clients and overseen a couple hundred million dollars in ad spend across platforms like Google, Meta, and Microsoft. If anyone knows what's working right now, it's him.</p><p><strong>Where to start with platforms:</strong>&nbsp;Google vs. Meta vs. TikTok – which one is right for YOUR business? John breaks down when to use search-based platforms (Google) versus visual discovery platforms (Meta/Instagram). Spoiler: It depends on whether people are actively searching for what you sell or if you need to introduce them to it.</p><p><strong>The AI question I had to ask:</strong>&nbsp;Is AI helping or hindering the ad process? John breaks AI into two categories – the targeting/bidding AI (which has improved exponentially) and why you still need human oversight to catch when the algorithm gets it wrong. Example: If you're a tree service, you don't want to pay for clicks from people searching "Dollar Tree."</p><p><strong>Does the AI actually track conversions?</strong>&nbsp;Yes! John explains how the platforms can see when a search term leads to a purchase (without seeing your private info) and how you can double down on what's working.</p><p><strong>The profitability framework:</strong>&nbsp;I asked John the technical question everyone wants to know – what percentage of revenue should you spend on ads? His answer surprised me. It's not a one-size-fits-all percentage. He walks through the difference between e-commerce businesses (where margins are fixed) versus service businesses (where overhead is already covered). The goal is finding the "water level" between volume and profit per transaction.</p><p><strong>Before you spend a dime on ads:</strong>&nbsp;John's process for starting smart:</p><ol><li>What's actually working best in your business right now? Start there, not with all five services you offer</li><li>Define what success looks like – are you driving calls, quotes, foot traffic? What can you afford to pay per lead?</li><li>Do the math BEFORE you start spending (if clicks cost $10 and you can only afford $5 per lead, don't do it)</li></ol><br/><p><strong>Timeline for results:</strong>&nbsp;You'll see traction immediately (people clicking or not), but give yourself at least 3 months to prove concept and reach profitability. Some businesses get there faster, but that's the realistic runway.</p><p><strong>The Google Analytics piece:</strong>&nbsp;John's team sets up analytics for every client because the website experience is CRITICAL. You can't just focus on ads and ignore what happens when people land on your site. One insight I loved: There's often a disconnect between the words businesses use (like "arborist") and the words consumers search for (like "tree service"). If your landing page doesn't match search intent, you're wasting money.</p><p><strong>What NOT to do (this is gold):</strong></p><p>❌&nbsp;<strong>Don't take platform "best practices" as gospel</strong>&nbsp;– They're often best practices for making the PLATFORM more money, not you. Those little checkboxes Google suggests? Read them carefully.</p><p>❌&nbsp;<strong>Don't view ads as a magic bullet</strong>&nbsp;– John describes ads as "fuel for your fire." If your pricing is wrong or your sales process is broken, ads will just send more people through a broken system. Fix your business first, then pour fuel on it.</p><p>❌&nbsp;<strong>Don't chase every shiny new thing</strong>&nbsp;– Yes, test new features, but don't abandon tried-and-true strategies that work. Use maybe 10-20% of budget for testing, keep the rest on proven workhorses.</p><p><strong>The Google suspension issue:</strong>&nbsp;I had to ask about this because it's terrifying – last year almost 40 MILLION ad accounts got suspended by Google. John explains it's usually not because competitors reported you, but because Google's automated systems are trying to catch scammers and legitimate businesses get caught in the crossfire. Stub Group specializes in helping people get reinstated.</p><p><strong>Why ad costs keep rising:</strong>&nbsp;I went on a bit of a tangent about how Google and Meta have created quite the profitable system – as more advertisers join, they can keep raising prices. John confirmed costs per click do increase year over year, which is why sophistication in targeting and messaging is more important than ever.</p><p><strong>YouTube ads insight:</strong>&nbsp;Costs are typically much lower on YouTube than Google search because you're not targeting someone actively searching to buy RIGHT NOW. You're higher in the funnel building awareness. But Google's targeting is so good (because they know what you've been searching) that YouTube can still drive direct conversions for many businesses.</p><p><strong>The bottom line:</strong>&nbsp;Ad platforms are mature and competitive. You can't just throw money at them and hope for results anymore. But with the right strategy, clear understanding of your numbers, and smart targeting, ads can absolutely work – even in crowded markets.</p><p><strong>Connect with John:</strong>&nbsp;Website: StubGroup.com YouTube: Search "Stub Group" for free videos on marketing, business, and Google Ads</p><p><strong>About John Horn:</strong></p><p>John Horn has spent over a decade in digital marketing and advertising, specializing in helping businesses navigate the complex world of paid advertising across platforms like Google, Meta (Facebook/Instagram), and Microsoft. As a leader at Stub Group (where he was employee #1), John has helped build an agency that's worked with over 2,000 clients and overseen hundreds of millions of dollars in ad spend.</p><p>Stub Group was founded to help businesses make the transition from traditional advertising to digital advertising effectively – figuring out how to spend dollars wisely and avoid waste. The agency focuses on Google Ads, SEO, email marketing, and has developed a unique specialty in helping businesses whose ad accounts have been suspended by Google (which happened to nearly 40 million accounts last year).</p><p>What sets John apart is his front-row seat to the economy through agency work – he's seen thousands of different business models, revenue streams, and approaches.

You're creating content every single day. You're spending hours preparing, publishing, getting it out there. Maybe you're even running ads to get new eyeballs. You're doing all the right things.</p><p>But today I want to share three powerful strategies that will help you expand your reach and get in front of new audiences – without expensive or time-consuming systems.</p><p><strong>Why this matters:</strong></p><p>These aren't just audience expansion tactics. These are authority-building, trust-building strategies. Unlike running ads to cold audiences (which is hard and costly), these methods will quickly establish you as the authority in your niche and create a transfer of trust that leads to clients who genuinely want to work with you.</p><p><strong>Strategy #1: Podcast Guesting (This is THE one)</strong></p><p>If you only do one thing from this episode, do this. Podcast guesting is huge, powerful, and can be completely free – whether you have your own podcast or not.</p><p>When you're a guest on someone else's podcast, you get 30-40 minutes to share your story and personality. People resonate with you, and because they already trust the host, that trust instantly transfers to you.</p><p><strong>How to get booked (3 ways):</strong></p><ol><li>Join Facebook podcast guest groups – share your bio and hosts will invite you</li><li>Use PodMatch.com – It's like a dating service for podcasters (around $70/month, totally worth it if you're committed to booking at least one podcast per week)</li><li>Cold pitch directly to podcasts (most time-consuming, some people pay VAs up to $300 per episode to do this, but I don't think you need to)</li></ol><br/><p><strong>Pro tip:</strong>&nbsp;Don't just try to sell the whole time. Add value. Be personable. Share your story. That's what creates connection.</p><p><strong>Bonus:</strong>&nbsp;Guest blogging works the same way – especially great if you're selling products or prefer writing to speaking.</p><p><strong>Strategy #2: HARO (Help a Reporter Out)</strong></p><p>Sign up at helpreporterout.com and you'll get daily (sometimes twice daily) lists of media outlets looking for experts to contribute pieces in your niche.</p><p>Whether you're in finance, business, health and wellness, women's health – whatever your field – contribute once or twice a month and you'll be leveraging massive audiences.</p><p><strong>The power:</strong>&nbsp;Many of these publications syndicate their content to 20+ other outlets. Your article doesn't just get a little reach – it gets massive reach. You never know where it'll go, but showing up consistently is what matters.</p><p><strong>Strategy #3: Host Workshops (Not Just Attend Them)</strong></p><p>I'm going to be honest with you: I've been on quite a few of those big women's business summits and they haven't really been worth it. Often the summit host benefits more than the speakers – sometimes they even charge you to speak and then leverage YOUR audience more than they give back to you.</p><p><strong>My recommendation:</strong>&nbsp;Team up with 2-3 other experts in complementary niches and HOST your own mini workshop.</p><p><strong>Example:</strong>&nbsp;If you're a mineral balancing practitioner, partner with a mindset coach and a nutritionist.

You're creating content every single day. You're spending hours preparing, publishing, getting it out there. Maybe you're even running ads to get new eyeballs. You're doing all the right things.</p><p>But today I want to share three powerful strategies that will help you expand your reach and get in front of new audiences – without expensive or time-consuming systems.</p><p><strong>Why this matters:</strong></p><p>These aren't just audience expansion tactics. These are authority-building, trust-building strategies. Unlike running ads to cold audiences (which is hard and costly), these methods will quickly establish you as the authority in your niche and create a transfer of trust that leads to clients who genuinely want to work with you.</p><p><strong>Strategy #1: Podcast Guesting (This is THE one)</strong></p><p>If you only do one thing from this episode, do this. Podcast guesting is huge, powerful, and can be completely free – whether you have your own podcast or not.</p><p>When you're a guest on someone else's podcast, you get 30-40 minutes to share your story and personality. People resonate with you, and because they already trust the host, that trust instantly transfers to you.</p><p><strong>How to get booked (3 ways):</strong></p><ol><li>Join Facebook podcast guest groups – share your bio and hosts will invite you</li><li>Use PodMatch.com – It's like a dating service for podcasters (around $70/month, totally worth it if you're committed to booking at least one podcast per week)</li><li>Cold pitch directly to podcasts (most time-consuming, some people pay VAs up to $300 per episode to do this, but I don't think you need to)</li></ol><br/><p><strong>Pro tip:</strong>&nbsp;Don't just try to sell the whole time. Add value. Be personable. Share your story. That's what creates connection.</p><p><strong>Bonus:</strong>&nbsp;Guest blogging works the same way – especially great if you're selling products or prefer writing to speaking.</p><p><strong>Strategy #2: HARO (Help a Reporter Out)</strong></p><p>Sign up at helpreporterout.com and you'll get daily (sometimes twice daily) lists of media outlets looking for experts to contribute pieces in your niche.</p><p>Whether you're in finance, business, health and wellness, women's health – whatever your field – contribute once or twice a month and you'll be leveraging massive audiences.</p><p><strong>The power:</strong>&nbsp;Many of these publications syndicate their content to 20+ other outlets. Your article doesn't just get a little reach – it gets massive reach. You never know where it'll go, but showing up consistently is what matters.</p><p><strong>Strategy #3: Host Workshops (Not Just Attend Them)</strong></p><p>I'm going to be honest with you: I've been on quite a few of those big women's business summits and they haven't really been worth it. Often the summit host benefits more than the speakers – sometimes they even charge you to speak and then leverage YOUR audience more than they give back to you.</p><p><strong>My recommendation:</strong>&nbsp;Team up with 2-3 other experts in complementary niches and HOST your own mini workshop.</p><p><strong>Example:</strong>&nbsp;If you're a mineral balancing practitioner, partner with a mindset coach and a nutritionist. Your clients would benefit from all three, and you all get the benefit of leveraging each other's audiences.</p><p><strong>Workshop tips:</strong></p><ul><li>Make sure everyone has a reasonable email list and agrees to send out a certain number of promotional emails</li><li>Use LinkedIn Events – you can invite up to 1,000 people for free and it goes directly to their inbox</li><li><strong>LinkedIn trick:</strong>&nbsp;Lots of people will click "going" but won't show up. Follow up in DMs with the registration link to increase your show-up ratio</li></ul><br/><p><strong>The Bottom Line:</strong></p><p>If you're so focused on creating content that you're not leveraging other people's audiences, you're missing a huge opportunity.</p><p>Pull back and ask yourself: How can I invest in one experience per week that puts me in front of someone else's audience?</p><p>Pour into other people, and you will be poured into.</p><p>These strategies build authority, create trust transfer, and get you in front of qualified audiences who are already primed to hear your message. Stop talking to the same people on social media and start expanding your reach strategically.</p><p>Mentioned in this episode:</p><p><strong>LAUNCH WITH CONFIDENCE</strong></p><p>Text FREEDOM to 55444 to access the free training on "How to Tell If Your Idea Is Profitable" </p><br/><br/>This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: <br/><br/>Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/]]></content:encoded><link><![CDATA[https://the-freedom-entrepreneur.captivate.fm/episode/3-effective-ways-to-leverage-other-peoples-audiences-to-expand-your-reach]]></link><guid isPermaLink="false">9c53baa2-f8f7-4461-b564-cc1ec60cc51a</guid><itunes:image href="https://artwork.captivate.fm/ca271153-ae39-455b-b046-dbaf18ce75e8/Freedom-Entrepreneur-podcast-2.jpg"/><pubDate>Wed, 08 Oct 2025 10:30:00 -0700</pubDate><enclosure url="https://prfx.byspotify.com/e/episodes.captivate.fm/episode/9c53baa2-f8f7-4461-b564-cc1ec60cc51a.mp3" length="12604446" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:duration>13:08</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType><itunes:season>5</itunes:season><itunes:episode>217</itunes:episode><podcast:episode>217</podcast:episode><podcast:season>5</podcast:season></item><item><title>If It Already Works, It&apos;s Already Obsolete – Future-Ready Your Business with Allister Frost</title><itunes:title>If It Already Works, It&apos;s Already Obsolete – Future-Ready Your Business with Allister Frost</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Friend, have you ever felt like the world of technology and business is moving at the speed of light – faster than you can keep up? It's not just a feeling. It's a fact. This is the new age we live in, where information flows at us like a fire hose.</p><p>Are you wondering if what you're doing now will be obsolete in six months? Today's guest is here to help you future-ready your mindset and your business so you don't get left behind.</p><p><strong>Meet Allister Frost:</strong>&nbsp;Author, former Microsoft leader, and specialist in change and transformation. Allister spent 20 years in the corporate world – 10 years at Kimberly-Clark working on brands like Kleenex and Huggies, and 10 years at Microsoft where he had a front-row seat to how technology is reshaping everything. He recognized that while tech companies live at the bleeding edge of change, many industries and entrepreneurs aren't thinking the same way – and they're at risk of becoming irrelevant.</p><p><strong>The wake-up call:</strong>&nbsp;At Microsoft, Allister learned a line from Bill Gates (borrowed from Marshall McLuhan) that changed everything: "If something works, it's already obsolete."</p><p>This is the opposite of the old corporate mantra "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." And it's the mindset shift every entrepreneur needs to survive and thrive in today's world.</p><p><strong>In this episode, you'll discover:</strong></p><p><strong>The lie of "future-proofing"</strong>&nbsp;– There's no such thing. That "future-proof" laptop from 10 years ago? Useless now. Instead of future-proofing, Allister teaches you to be&nbsp;<em>future-ready</em>&nbsp;– thinking ahead to inevitable changes and getting ahead of them so they fuel your growth instead of knocking you off course.</p><p><strong>The Ready Already Growth Cycle</strong>&nbsp;– Allister's embarrassingly simple (but clever) five-step framework for staying relevant:</p><ol><li><strong>Follow</strong>&nbsp;– Identify what you need to pay attention to (informed by your personal mission)</li><li><strong>React</strong>&nbsp;– Learn creatively about that thing, then decide if it's valid for your future</li><li><strong>Open</strong>&nbsp;– Challenge everything with childlike curiosity (Why do we do Monday meetings? Why paper invoices?)</li><li><strong>Surprise</strong>&nbsp;– Use bold imagination without self-censoring (computers will never beat human creativity)</li><li><strong>Tell</strong>&nbsp;– Share ideas with trusted people who respond with "Yes, and..." not "No, but..."</li></ol><br/><p><strong>Your Personal Mission (North Star)</strong>&nbsp;– This sits at the center of everything. It's not your job title or company values – it's what you do in service of others. Allister's example: When given the "boring" job of managing email at Microsoft, he created the mission "I make the world better at email." That got him out of bed excited every Monday.</p><p><strong>The downstream consequence question</strong>&nbsp;– If you do your job well, who benefits? Keep asking until you get to something meaningful. That sales spreadsheet you update? It might eventually lead to kids playing on a beach because their parents have financial stability.&nbsp;<em>That's</em>&nbsp;your real mission.</p><p><strong>Why we resist change</strong>&nbsp;– It's biological. We fear loss of what we have. But Allister reveals the difference between&nbsp;<em>dangerous</em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>scary</em>&nbsp;– most changes feel scary but aren't actually dangerous. We're literally the most change-capable species on Earth.</p><p><strong>The "dog in a room full of squirrels" problem</strong>&nbsp;– Allister's boss would come to meetings with a list of shiny new things to chase. They wasted massive energy trying everything instead of doing one thing well. Be a steward of your energy. Focus on what matters to your North Star.</p><p><strong>The three "superhuman powers"</strong>&nbsp;– Things humans will always do better than AI:</p><ul><li>Naive curiosity (asking "why?" like a 5-year-old)</li><li>Bold imagination (non-obvious but valuable ideas)</li><li>Brilliant human-to-human communication (making ideas better together)</li></ul><br/><p><strong>Key insight:</strong>&nbsp;Entrepreneurs often pine for security, consistency, smooth operations. They build systems hoping one day it'll "just work." But here's the truth – if you're standing still while everything outside your business is changing, you're actually moving backwards.</p><p>Your grandparents could learn one skill and use it their whole working life. That world is gone. Now, the minute you say "This is how I operate and I'm not changing," you become obsolete.</p><p><strong>The dangerous myth:</strong>&nbsp;"We'll put off this project until next year when we have the new system/after the merger/when circumstances are better." There will never be perfect circumstances. That new system you're waiting for? It'll be obsolete before you implement it.</p><p><strong>The reality:</strong>&nbsp;The future will be harder than today. Change will be quicker, more disruptive, more uncertain. If you don't have a North Star – a reason to keep learning and growing – you'll rest on your laurels and get left behind.</p><p><strong>Allister's book:</strong>&nbsp;<em>Ready Already</em>&nbsp;– Intentionally short (around 100 pages) because your future is too important to waste time reading a complex model. Quick read with simple exercises so you can start creating your future immediately.</p><p><strong>The invitation:</strong>&nbsp;Stop waiting for stability. Stop hoping it'll "just work already." Plants are either growing or dying. Your business is the same. Embrace that we're human beings designed for evolution, not stagnation.</p><p>Everything can be improved. Someone somewhere has figured out a smarter way.

But right now? You're exhausted, overwhelmed, and trapped. Your calendar is full but your soul feels empty.</p><p>I want to share something vulnerable with you today – the principle that completely transformed my life and business: God first, family second, career third.</p><p>I wasn't raised religiously. I didn't trust people who wore their faith on their sleeves. I was spiritual but skeptical of Christianity. Thirteen years ago, I heard this principle from my Mary Kay director and thought "that's nice" – but I had no idea how to actually live it.</p><p>The truth? I was living career first, family second, God third. Money was my idol. It determined whether I was happy or sad, successful or failing, free or trapped. I was enslaved to it.</p><p>When I started this podcast in 2021, I believed I needed money to have time freedom. That belief kept me stuck.</p><p>What shifted? I started attending church with a friend. I read the Bible – honestly, to prove it wrong – but found myself drawn to God instead. Over time, I realized God is the source. Not my hustle. Not my business. Not my bank account.</p><p>I've had six figures in savings and still worried constantly. I've had time off and been severely depressed. I've had secure income and been my own boss. But nothing – nothing – brought me freedom like surrendering to God as the source.</p><p>Recently it hit me: I was looking at upcoming expenses and I wasn't worried. Not because I had plenty in the bank, but because I was confident in God. That's when I knew I was finally living God first, family second, career third.</p><p>What does this look like? I make decisions by asking "Does God want me to do this?" I choose family over working late. I pray before I strategize. I build something sustainable, not something that requires me to sacrifice everything.</p><p>The result? My business has become more aligned, more purposeful, more sustainable. My family gets the present version of me. My peace doesn't depend on my sales or productivity anymore.</p><p>If you're recognizing that you've made time or money your idol – if you're placing your hope for freedom in something outside yourself – I want to invite you to get curious about God. Pick up a Bible. See what happens.</p><p>And if faith isn't your path, I still want you to ask: What have you made your god? Is it working?</p><p>This episode is different from my usual content. I wrestled with sharing this. But I've been guided to, and I can't hide what actually transformed my life. If you work with me, you already know I talk about God with my clients. I don't separate faith from business because they're not separate in my life.</p><p>True freedom might not be where you think it is, friend.</p><p>Biz in a Box CRM is the ultimate all-in-one solution designed to simplify and scale your business.

But right now? You're exhausted, overwhelmed, and trapped. Your calendar is full but your soul feels empty.</p><p>I want to share something vulnerable with you today – the principle that completely transformed my life and business: God first, family second, career third.</p><p>I wasn't raised religiously. I didn't trust people who wore their faith on their sleeves. I was spiritual but skeptical of Christianity. Thirteen years ago, I heard this principle from my Mary Kay director and thought "that's nice" – but I had no idea how to actually live it.</p><p>The truth? I was living career first, family second, God third. Money was my idol. It determined whether I was happy or sad, successful or failing, free or trapped. I was enslaved to it.</p><p>When I started this podcast in 2021, I believed I needed money to have time freedom. That belief kept me stuck.</p><p>What shifted? I started attending church with a friend. I read the Bible – honestly, to prove it wrong – but found myself drawn to God instead. Over time, I realized God is the source. Not my hustle. Not my business. Not my bank account.</p><p>I've had six figures in savings and still worried constantly. I've had time off and been severely depressed. I've had secure income and been my own boss. But nothing – nothing – brought me freedom like surrendering to God as the source.</p><p>Recently it hit me: I was looking at upcoming expenses and I wasn't worried. Not because I had plenty in the bank, but because I was confident in God. That's when I knew I was finally living God first, family second, career third.</p><p>What does this look like? I make decisions by asking "Does God want me to do this?" I choose family over working late. I pray before I strategize. I build something sustainable, not something that requires me to sacrifice everything.</p><p>The result? My business has become more aligned, more purposeful, more sustainable. My family gets the present version of me. My peace doesn't depend on my sales or productivity anymore.</p><p>If you're recognizing that you've made time or money your idol – if you're placing your hope for freedom in something outside yourself – I want to invite you to get curious about God. Pick up a Bible. See what happens.</p><p>And if faith isn't your path, I still want you to ask: What have you made your god? Is it working?</p><p>This episode is different from my usual content. I wrestled with sharing this. But I've been guided to, and I can't hide what actually transformed my life. If you work with me, you already know I talk about God with my clients. I don't separate faith from business because they're not separate in my life.</p><p>True freedom might not be where you think it is, friend.</p><p>Biz in a Box CRM is the ultimate all-in-one solution designed to simplify and scale your business.

Sometimes you even do these things.</p><p>But more often? You don't.</p><p>Six months pass and you're having the same internal conversation. A year later, you're still in the same place.

You're not alone. Most small business owners expect respect simply because they're the boss, but respect has to be earned and managed—just like customer satisfaction.</p><p>In this episode, business systems strategist Lindsay Sutherland reveals the five critical mistakes that kill respect culture in small businesses and what to do instead.</p><p><strong>The 5 Respect-Killing Mistakes:</strong></p><p><strong>1. The Interview Trap</strong>&nbsp;- Making hiring decisions in the first 5 minutes based on likability instead of competence. Learn how casual, unstructured interviews set the wrong tone from day one.</p><p><strong>2. Onboarding Sloppiness</strong>&nbsp;- Telling new employees "don't worry about that policy" or "rules don't apply to you." This immediately signals that standards are negotiable and chaos is coming.</p><p><strong>3. No Accountability</strong>&nbsp;- Assuming employees are as self-driven as you are. Without structured reviews and clear expectations, resentment builds on both sides.</p><p><strong>4. Poor Communication</strong>&nbsp;- Casual conversations aren't enough. Learn why formal communication creates trust and how employee feedback can actually increase your authority.</p><p><strong>5. Lack of Appreciation</strong>&nbsp;- The silent killer that makes good employees leave. Discover why random, purposeful appreciation works better than predictable rewards.</p><p><strong>You'll Learn:</strong></p><ul><li>Why 33% of hiring managers make decisions in 5 minutes (and why that's dangerous)</li><li>The psychology behind why friendly interviews backfire</li><li>How employee handbooks prevent lawsuits and build respect</li><li>Why letting employees evaluate you increases loyalty</li><li>The difference between appreciation that builds culture vs. creates entitlement</li></ul><br/><p><strong>The Bottom Line:</strong>&nbsp;Respect doesn't come from your title—it comes from processes. From interviewing to onboarding to daily management, every interaction either builds or destroys the respect culture you need.</p><p><strong>Perfect for:</strong>&nbsp;Small business owners struggling with employee management, entrepreneurs avoiding hiring due to people stress, and leaders who want to build loyalty without being pushovers.</p><p>If managing employees is draining your energy, the problem isn't the people—it's the lack of systems.</p><p>In just 15–20 minutes, I can help you uncover the hidden inefficiencies that are costing you both time and money in your business. Most owners don’t realize how much energy is wasted on repetitive tasks, gaps in processes, and systems that don’t actually support growth. During our call, I’ll listen closely to how your business is currently running, pinpoint one or two areas where you may be sabotaging your own scalability, and show you a clear next step to reclaim control. Whether you decide to work with me further or not, you’ll leave with immediate clarity on what’s holding your business back — and the confidence of knowing exactly where to focus to create more freedom and profit.</p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://crm.bizinaboxsolutions.com/widget/bookings/15-minute-consult-ls" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Book here - https://crm.bizinaboxsolutions.com/widget/bookings/15-minute-consult-ls</a></p><p>Biz in a Box CRM is the ultimate all-in-one solution designed to simplify and scale your business.

You're not alone. Most small business owners expect respect simply because they're the boss, but respect has to be earned and managed—just like customer satisfaction.</p><p>In this episode, business systems strategist Lindsay Sutherland reveals the five critical mistakes that kill respect culture in small businesses and what to do instead.</p><p><strong>The 5 Respect-Killing Mistakes:</strong></p><p><strong>1. The Interview Trap</strong>&nbsp;- Making hiring decisions in the first 5 minutes based on likability instead of competence. Learn how casual, unstructured interviews set the wrong tone from day one.</p><p><strong>2. Onboarding Sloppiness</strong>&nbsp;- Telling new employees "don't worry about that policy" or "rules don't apply to you." This immediately signals that standards are negotiable and chaos is coming.</p><p><strong>3. No Accountability</strong>&nbsp;- Assuming employees are as self-driven as you are. Without structured reviews and clear expectations, resentment builds on both sides.</p><p><strong>4. Poor Communication</strong>&nbsp;- Casual conversations aren't enough. Learn why formal communication creates trust and how employee feedback can actually increase your authority.</p><p><strong>5. Lack of Appreciation</strong>&nbsp;- The silent killer that makes good employees leave. Discover why random, purposeful appreciation works better than predictable rewards.</p><p><strong>You'll Learn:</strong></p><ul><li>Why 33% of hiring managers make decisions in 5 minutes (and why that's dangerous)</li><li>The psychology behind why friendly interviews backfire</li><li>How employee handbooks prevent lawsuits and build respect</li><li>Why letting employees evaluate you increases loyalty</li><li>The difference between appreciation that builds culture vs. creates entitlement</li></ul><br/><p><strong>The Bottom Line:</strong>&nbsp;Respect doesn't come from your title—it comes from processes. From interviewing to onboarding to daily management, every interaction either builds or destroys the respect culture you need.</p><p><strong>Perfect for:</strong>&nbsp;Small business owners struggling with employee management, entrepreneurs avoiding hiring due to people stress, and leaders who want to build loyalty without being pushovers.</p><p>If managing employees is draining your energy, the problem isn't the people—it's the lack of systems.</p><p>In just 15–20 minutes, I can help you uncover the hidden inefficiencies that are costing you both time and money in your business. Most owners don’t realize how much energy is wasted on repetitive tasks, gaps in processes, and systems that don’t actually support growth. During our call, I’ll listen closely to how your business is currently running, pinpoint one or two areas where you may be sabotaging your own scalability, and show you a clear next step to reclaim control. Whether you decide to work with me further or not, you’ll leave with immediate clarity on what’s holding your business back — and the confidence of knowing exactly where to focus to create more freedom and profit.</p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://crm.bizinaboxsolutions.com/widget/bookings/15-minute-consult-ls" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Book here - https://crm.bizinaboxsolutions.com/widget/bookings/15-minute-consult-ls</a></p><p>Biz in a Box CRM is the ultimate all-in-one solution designed to simplify and scale your business.

You don’t trust others to do it “your way.” So you keep saying yes, jumping in, and holding the business together with sheer grit.</p><p>But here’s the reality: all of that control is keeping you trapped. It’s turning you into the bottleneck.

You want to prevent mistakes. You don’t trust others to do it “your way.” So you keep saying yes, jumping in, and holding the business together with sheer grit.</p><p>But here’s the reality: all of that control is keeping you trapped. It’s turning you into the bottleneck. And it’s robbing you of the freedom you started this business for in the first place.</p><p>In this episode, I’ll show you:</p><p>1️⃣ Why control feels safe but actually stalls growth.</p><p>2️⃣ How to start shifting into true leadership without losing quality or clients.</p><p>3️⃣ The simple mindset shift that allows your team—and your systems—to finally carry the weight.</p><p>And if you’re ready to stop carrying the burden alone, let’s talk.

A small-town solar-electric company owner who looked successful on the outside — but behind the scenes, he was drowning. He was exhausted, barely breaking even, and terrified that if he stepped away, the whole business would collapse.</p><p>In today’s episode, I take you behind the scenes of Rick’s transformation — the exact steps we used to overhaul his business and double profits without me ever having to climb on a roof.</p><p>Here’s what you’ll discover:</p><p>✨&nbsp;<strong>The first shift: profit.</strong>&nbsp;Why raising his hourly rate and billing correctly (instead of paying employees out of his own pocket) instantly turned things around.</p><p>✨&nbsp;<strong>The second shift: systems.</strong>&nbsp;How disorganization and missing contracts had already cost the business tens of thousands — and how one simple CRM fix put money back in his pocket and peace of mind back in his day.</p><p>✨&nbsp;<strong>The third shift: team.</strong>&nbsp;Why Rick resisted hiring for months out of fear — fear of training competition, fear of payroll costs, fear of mistakes — and how he eventually built a crew that could operate independently, freeing him from the bottleneck.</p><p>The turning point? When Rick’s father passed away, he had to leave suddenly to handle family matters. For the first time, the business didn’t fall apart without him. The systems held. The crew stepped up. And when the time came to sell, new owners could walk in and keep things running smoothly.</p><p>👉 If you’ve ever felt like your business would crumble the moment you stop pushing, this episode will hit home.</p><p>👉 If you’re tired of being the bottleneck, you’ll hear exactly what shifts to make.</p><p>👉 And if you’ve wondered whether freedom is even possible for you — Rick’s story will prove that it is.</p><p>🎧 Tune in now and find out how small, strategic changes can unlock massive freedom in your business.</p><p>In just 15–20 minutes, I can help you uncover the hidden inefficiencies that are costing you both time and money in your business.

You’ve mapped the processes. You’re finally starting to see how your business could run without you being chained to it. But then comes the hardest part—getting your team to actually use the systems you’ve worked so hard to create.</p><p>And here’s the truth: employees don’t like change. Maybe 1% of them thrive on it—and those are your future leaders—but the vast majority resist it with everything they’ve got. Not because they’re lazy or incapable, but because they’re wired differently than you are as a CEO. You think in terms of vision, scalability, and freedom. They think in terms of comfort, habits, and protecting their paycheck. That gap can make rolling out new systems feel like pushing a boulder uphill.</p><p>In this episode, I’ll share a story from my days in the car business that perfectly illustrates this difference. My team of appointment setters wasn’t motivated by the big bonuses I offered—they were terrified of losing $50. That fear pushed them to perform at levels they had claimed were “impossible.” It opened my eyes to the way employees think versus the way entrepreneurs think. And once you understand that difference, you can finally lead your team through change instead of fighting against them.</p><p>Here’s what you’ll discover in this episode:</p><ul><li>Why your team resists new systems even when they make life easier.</li><li>How to communicate the “why” so they see the personal benefit, not just the company gain.</li><li>Why you must set the expectation that change takes 90–120 days—it’s about building habits, not instant perfection.</li><li>The role of accountability in turning new processes into lasting transformation.</li></ul><br/><p>If you’ve ever felt frustrated that your team “just won’t get on board,” this episode will shift your perspective and give you practical tools to lead with clarity, patience, and authority. Because the truth is, you don’t need unicorn employees who think like CEOs—you need systems that normal people can follow, and leadership that inspires them to use those systems.</p><p>🎯 Tune in and learn how to stop struggling with resistance and start building a team that buys in, follows through, and frees you to focus on what matters most.</p><p>The&nbsp;<a href="https://bizinaboxsolutions.com/7-day-business-makeover" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>7 Day Business Makeover</strong>&nbsp;</a>is a free video series designed to help you uncover the hidden gaps in your business and start building systems that actually work for you.

Busyness is a trap that keeps you hustling without ever feeling free. In this episode, Lindsay Sutherland reveals the forgotten key to building a business you love—learning to&nbsp;<em>be</em>&nbsp;present instead of constantly&nbsp;<em>doing</em>. She shares her own story of breaking free from the endless to-do list, the seasons of growth and success every entrepreneur cycles through, and how clarity of vision—not busyness—makes you unstoppable.

Most owners don’t realize how much energy is wasted on repetitive tasks, gaps in processes, and systems that don’t actually support growth. During our call, I’ll listen closely to how your business is currently running, pinpoint one or two areas where you may be sabotaging your own scalability, and show you a clear next step to reclaim control.

The work is there. The phone rings. The money comes in.</p><p>But let’s be honest for a second:</p><p>✅ Are you always behind?</p><p>✅ Afraid to take on more because you’re already stretched thin?</p><p>✅ Waking up at 2AM thinking about what you forgot to do?</p><p>Most business owners&nbsp;<em>think</em>&nbsp;their operations are “good enough” because they’ve made it work this long. But “making it work” is just a polite way of saying you’re duct-taping chaos together every single day.</p><p>The truth?</p><p>You might be leaving thousands on the table every month in lost leads, dropped balls, unpaid invoices, and missed opportunities.</p><p>Not because you’re lazy. Not because you don’t care.</p><p>But because you don’t know&nbsp;<strong>exactly</strong>&nbsp;where your systems are failing you.</p><h2><strong>Let Me Tell You About Rick.</strong></h2><p>Rick owned a successful service business.

We're thrilled to have you join us once again as we delve into a somewhat controversial topic today. As solopreneurs building businesses from the comfort of our homes, we often contemplate involving our spouses in crucial decisions. There are compelling reasons for this, from financial investments to time commitments that impact our families. But should we always let our spouses influence these decisions? Let's explore this topic further.</p><p>[00:00:00] - Introduction</p><p>In the world of entrepreneurship, the dynamics of involving our spouses in our business decisions can be intricate. From allocating investment capital to addressing family-related concerns, there are numerous factors to consider. On today's episode, we aim to unravel the complexities of this issue.</p><p>[00:01:00] - The Entrepreneurial Mindset</p><p>Running a business requires a unique entrepreneurial mindset that may differ from being a traditional employee. Entrepreneurs often face higher risks and uncertainties. While sharing our business details with our spouse seems like a natural step, it may not always be the best approach.</p><p>[00:02:00] - The Influence of Spouses</p><p>Relying on our spouses for approval or permission in our business decisions can be limiting. It's important to remember that their perspective may not align with the entrepreneurial path we've chosen. Moreover, even if they are entrepreneurial themselves, they may not fully grasp our business model.</p><p>[00:03:00] - Seeking Mentorship and Guidance</p><p>In many cases, it's more beneficial to seek mentorship or guidance from experienced individuals who understand our specific business challenges. While we value our spouse's input, relying solely on them can hold us back.</p><p>[00:04:00] - Gender Dynamics</p><p>Gender dynamics often play a role in this scenario. Men tend to be more confident and decisive in making decisions, while women may second-guess themselves and seek their spouse's input. However, trusting our instincts and making decisions that align with our mission is essential.</p><p>[00:05:00] - The Impact of Spousal Influence</p><p>Compromising our business decisions due to spousal influence can lead to resentment and regret. It's crucial to prioritize our business mission and follow our instincts, even if it means taking calculated risks.</p><p>[00:06:00] - A Personal Story</p><p>A personal example highlights how spouses may have different approaches to business. Even with a partner's managerial experience, their perspective may not align with our vision and methods.</p><p>[00:08:00] - A Client's Experience</p><p>We share the story of a client whose husband's pressure to give up her thriving e-commerce business created a dilemma. Following her instincts and business mission proved to be the right choice, despite initial challenges.</p><p>[00:10:00] - Trusting Your Instincts</p><p>Ultimately, trusting your instincts and understanding your business mission is paramount. Seeking counsel from third-party experts and maintaining healthy boundaries with your spouse ensures the best decisions for your business.</p><p>[00:12:00] - Embracing Growth Opportunities</p><p>Following your instincts may lead to unexpected growth opportunities. While the path may have occasional pivots, staying true to your mission is key.</p><p>[00:14:00] - Commitment to Your Mission</p><p>Successful entrepreneurs, like Elon Musk, make strategic decisions based on their commitment to their mission. Knowing your mission and staying dedicated to it guides your decision-making process.</p><p>[00:16:00] - Conclusion</p><p>In conclusion, as business owners, it's essential to trust your instincts, prioritize your mission, and seek guidance from third-party experts when necessary. While involving your spouse in decision-making is valuable, maintaining your autonomy and conviction is equally vital. Thank you for tuning in to this episode, and remember to stay true to your entrepreneurial journey.

However, trusting our instincts and making decisions that align with our mission is essential.</p><p>[00:05:00] - The Impact of Spousal Influence</p><p>Compromising our business decisions due to spousal influence can lead to resentment and regret. It's crucial to prioritize our business mission and follow our instincts, even if it means taking calculated risks.</p><p>[00:06:00] - A Personal Story</p><p>A personal example highlights how spouses may have different approaches to business. Even with a partner's managerial experience, their perspective may not align with our vision and methods.</p><p>[00:08:00] - A Client's Experience</p><p>We share the story of a client whose husband's pressure to give up her thriving e-commerce business created a dilemma. Following her instincts and business mission proved to be the right choice, despite initial challenges.</p><p>[00:10:00] - Trusting Your Instincts</p><p>Ultimately, trusting your instincts and understanding your business mission is paramount. Seeking counsel from third-party experts and maintaining healthy boundaries with your spouse ensures the best decisions for your business.</p><p>[00:12:00] - Embracing Growth Opportunities</p><p>Following your instincts may lead to unexpected growth opportunities. While the path may have occasional pivots, staying true to your mission is key.</p><p>[00:14:00] - Commitment to Your Mission</p><p>Successful entrepreneurs, like Elon Musk, make strategic decisions based on their commitment to their mission. Knowing your mission and staying dedicated to it guides your decision-making process.</p><p>[00:16:00] - Conclusion</p><p>In conclusion, as business owners, it's essential to trust your instincts, prioritize your mission, and seek guidance from third-party experts when necessary. While involving your spouse in decision-making is valuable, maintaining your autonomy and conviction is equally vital. Thank you for tuning in to this episode, and remember to stay true to your entrepreneurial journey.

Lindsay and Matthew emphasize the importance of considering your content strategy, audience, and goals before diving in.</p><p>3. <strong>Guest Introduction</strong>: Matthew Hughes shares his background, highlighting his journey from running a video production company to founding the "King of Video" brand, where he helps small business owners create compelling video content.</p><p><br></p><p>4. <strong>Challenging Mr. Beast's Advice:</strong> The conversation takes an interesting turn as they discuss the advice given by Mr. Beast, a well-known YouTuber. While Mr. Beast advocates for quality over quantity and investing significant time into each video, Matthew points out that Mr. Beast also used to emphasize the need to create many videos, even if they aren't perfect. This contrast highlights the importance of getting started on YouTube without overthinking quality.</p><p><br></p><p>5. <strong>Strategic Content Creation</strong>: Matthew explains that while Mr. Beast's journey took several years, beginners can accelerate their progress through strategic planning. By creating a content plan and being strategic from the start, you can reduce the number of videos required to succeed. It's not necessary to follow the "200 bad videos" rule if you have a clear plan.</p><p><br></p><p>6. <strong>Avoiding the Quest for Virality</strong>: Lindsay and Matthew caution against fixating on creating viral videos. Virality doesn't necessarily translate to long-term success or conversions. Building an engaged audience through consistent content that resonates with your target audience is more valuable than a one-time viral hit.</p><p><br></p><p>7. <strong>Three Key Considerations for YouTube Beginners:</strong></p><p>   - <strong>Understanding Your Audience</strong>: Matthew advises creators to thoroughly research their ideal viewers' preferences and what they are willing to watch in your niche or industry.</p><p>   - <strong>Planning:</strong> They stress the importance of having a content plan and creating a backlog of videos to maintain consistency, whether it's weekly or according to your chosen schedule.</p><p>   - <strong>Getting Started</strong>: Overcoming the fear of perfectionism and just creating content is vital. You don't need expensive equipment; even a modern smartphone can suffice for recording.</p><p><br></p><p>8. <strong>Outsourcing Editing</strong>: The discussion touches on the editing process. While Matthew recommends using tools like Descript for beginners, he also suggests outsourcing editing as your channel grows. Outsourcing allows you to focus on content creation and ensures a polished final product.</p><p><br></p><p>9. <strong>Overcoming Insecurities</strong>: The episode concludes by addressing the inner work required for content creators. They discuss how imposter syndrome and insecurities can hold people back from sharing their expertise. Matthew shares a powerful reminder that you owe it to the world to share your knowledge and not keep it locked away.</p><p><br></p><p>10. <strong>Engaging with Trolls</strong>: Matthew advises acknowledging negative comments or trolls with gratitude, or even playing along with their criticisms. Responding positively can disarm trolls and demonstrate your authenticity.</p><p><br></p><p>11. <strong>Stick Around Factor</strong>: The conversation highlights the importance of keeping your audience engaged throughout your videos. Analyzing why you personally stayed engaged in other creators' videos can help you implement effective strategies in your own content.</p><p><br></p><p>12. <strong>Connecting with Matthew</strong>: Lindsay encourages listeners to connect with Matthew through his website, <a href="https://kingofvideo.co.uk" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">kingofvideo.co.uk</a>. He offers various programs and communities to support content creators at different stages of their YouTube journey.</p><p>In summary, this podcast episode provides valuable insights into YouTube content creation, emphasizing the importance of strategic planning, overcoming insecurities, and engaging with your audience effectively. It encourages aspiring content creators to take action and embrace video as a powerful tool for building their brand and business.</p><p><a href="https://www.captivate.fm/signup?ref=lindsaysutherland">This podcast is hosted by Captivate, try it yourself for free.</a> </p><p>Lindsay Sutherland </p><p><a href="https://the-freedom-entrepreneur.captivate.fm">Freedom Entrepreneur Podcast | Online Business Tips, Business System Strategy, Marketing Training, Entrepreneur Mindset website</a> </p><p>Mentioned in this episode:</p><p><strong>Text PIE to 33777 to get your copy today.</strong></p><p>Discover 5 ways to earn $5k a month with Passive Income</p><br/><br/>This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: <br/><br/>Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In this episode of the Freedom Entrepreneur Podcast, host Lindsay Sutherland and guest Matthew Hughes, known as the King of Video, engage in a conversation about the world of YouTube and how entrepreneurs and content creators can thrive on the platform.</p><p>Here's an expanded summary:</p><p>1. <strong>Introduction</strong>: Lindsay introduces the podcast and its guest, Matthew Hughes, who has extensive experience in video production and YouTube content creation.</p><p>2. <strong>YouTube Content Strategy:</strong> The episode starts by addressing the common dilemma many aspiring content creators face: whether to start a YouTube channel.

Today's episode delves into the realm of mind hacking, offering you the tools to elevate your consciousness and connect with your Successful Self – the version of you that has already attained the abundance and freedom you yearn for.</p><p>Recently, while listening to a thought-provoking podcast, I came across a powerful message: "If you find yourself as the smartest person in the room, you're in the wrong room." This inspired me to contemplate two fundamental questions. Firstly, how can I surround myself with Higher Thinkers? Secondly, is it possible to enhance my own cognitive abilities to reach unprecedented levels of thinking?</p><p>Fortuitously, whenever I seek answers, they have a way of finding me. I stumbled upon a captivating YouTube video featuring Jim Kwik on Mindvalley, which you can watch here: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uT_GcOGEFsk" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uT_GcOGEFsk</a>. His concluding motivational statement instilled in me the belief that I could indeed transcend my current level of consciousness. He posed a compelling question: "What if you could have a conversation with your future successful self? What advice would they offer you today?"</p><p>This prompted me to experiment with intuiting my future successful self, and the results were astounding. I gained remarkable clarity regarding my business, the path to success, and the actionable steps I took to attain it. Emerging from the meditation, I felt an overwhelming sense of joy, excitement, and boundless potential. In this episode, I share the process I followed, enabling you to embark on a similar journey of self-discovery and gain unparalleled clarity in your own entrepreneurial endeavors.</p><p>Furthermore, I have been extensively studying brain waves and their correlation with states of consciousness, particularly their impact on creativity. Beta waves represent our active cycles, while Alpha waves signify a meditative state where we are most receptive to new ideas. To induce an Alpha state, I employ a meditation exercise that I have honed over the years, which I meticulously explain in this episode.</p><p>Remember, your future is being shaped today.

If you’re considering a rebrand, here are three questions to help you get clear on whether it’s the right move for you:</p><p>Are you waiting to rebrand because you think you should keep what you have?</p><p>Often we put in a lot of blood, sweat, and tears (OK, maybe more tears than sweat and blood LOL), and it feels hard to let go. But, if we are holding on despite our inner guidance nudging us otherwise, it may be time to move on. One way to get clear on your guidance is to make a mood board and really get into he vibe of your new brand including colors, font, logo design, and even content pillars. If you find yourself really excited about this that is a good sign. If it feels clunky or does not flow easily, then maybe it's best to wait until you have more flow.</p><p>For me, making the mood board flowed beautifully and after that, anything I did that was under the Passive Income Examiner brand felt inauthentic and not exciting. This was a key indicator for me.</p><p>Second question: What fears come up when you think of rebranding? Yes, you can expect technical difficulties and a loud online mess especially if you are transition websites, socials, and email like I did. But, staying in inaction because we are afraid of the work is not living a freedom lifestyle, now is it? </p><p>What else is coming up for you? Do you want to talk through the process with someone? Are you hesitating in your decision for fear of what your audience will think? Feel free to book a complimentary conversation with me at <a href="www.lindsaysutherland.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.lindsaysutherland.com</a>.</p><p>Lastly, what would be different if you switched?

If you’re considering a rebrand, here are three questions to help you get clear on whether it’s the right move for you:</p><p>Are you waiting to rebrand because you think you should keep what you have?</p><p>Often we put in a lot of blood, sweat, and tears (OK, maybe more tears than sweat and blood LOL), and it feels hard to let go. But, if we are holding on despite our inner guidance nudging us otherwise, it may be time to move on. One way to get clear on your guidance is to make a mood board and really get into he vibe of your new brand including colors, font, logo design, and even content pillars. If you find yourself really excited about this that is a good sign. If it feels clunky or does not flow easily, then maybe it's best to wait until you have more flow.</p><p>For me, making the mood board flowed beautifully and after that, anything I did that was under the Passive Income Examiner brand felt inauthentic and not exciting. This was a key indicator for me.</p><p>Second question: What fears come up when you think of rebranding? Yes, you can expect technical difficulties and a loud online mess especially if you are transition websites, socials, and email like I did. But, staying in inaction because we are afraid of the work is not living a freedom lifestyle, now is it? </p><p>What else is coming up for you? Do you want to talk through the process with someone? Are you hesitating in your decision for fear of what your audience will think? Feel free to book a complimentary conversation with me at <a href="www.lindsaysutherland.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.lindsaysutherland.com</a>.</p><p>Lastly, what would be different if you switched? In a way, the mood board exercise helps with this question. The bottom line is, if the new version lights you up it is well worth the change. Otherwise, wait until you design a brand that does light you up or chat through the process with a coach and build a brand you love.</p><p>Rebranding can be a big investment, both in terms of time and resources, but it can also be a valuable investment in your business’s future. By asking these three questions and doing your due diligence, you can make an informed decision on whether rebranding is right for you.</p><br/><br/>This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: <br/><br/>Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/]]></content:encoded><link><![CDATA[https://the-freedom-entrepreneur.captivate.fm/episode/should-i-rebrand-my-online-business]]></link><guid isPermaLink="false">0d902aff-4762-465b-a4c7-8a80cb3afbd1</guid><itunes:image href="https://artwork.captivate.fm/0e13af06-c939-4d94-8f08-fe85418c64f0/Ootl_jCDhBcj3SAO7JYVqbnq.jpg"/><pubDate>Thu, 02 Feb 2023 00:30:00 -0700</pubDate><enclosure url="https://prfx.byspotify.com/e/podcasts.captivate.fm/media/2cd587ec-b0d2-456e-a6c4-82c21b305c5c/rebranding-your-online-business-and-3-questions-to-help-you-get.mp3" length="12595141" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:duration>20:59</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType><itunes:season>3</itunes:season><itunes:episode>144</itunes:episode><podcast:episode>144</podcast:episode><podcast:season>3</podcast:season></item><item><title>Radical Acceptance &amp; How it is the Gateway to Authentic Growth</title><itunes:title>Radical Acceptance &amp; How it is the Gateway to Authentic Growth</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Book Your Complimentary Transformational Conversation at <a href="www.LindsaySutherland.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.LindsaySutherland.com</a></p><p>Radical Acceptance: The Gateway to Authentic Growth</p><p>Radical acceptance is a concept in psychology that refers to the practice of fully accepting and embracing all aspects of ourselves, including our thoughts, feelings, and experiences. It is about acknowledging and accepting the reality of our lives, without judgment or resistance. This practice is seen as a key component of personal growth and well-being.</p><p>One of the biggest barriers to personal growth is resistance. When we resist what is happening in our lives, we create internal conflict and struggle. This struggle can take many forms, including anxiety, depression, and anger. By accepting what is happening, we free ourselves from this resistance and can start to focus on making positive changes in our lives.</p><p>Radical acceptance is not the same as resignation or passivity. It is not about giving up or accepting defeat. Instead, it is about recognizing that some things are beyond our control and choosing to focus on what we can control. This focus allows us to take actions that will lead to positive change and growth.</p><p>Another benefit of radical acceptance is that it allows us to build a more authentic sense of self. When we accept all parts of ourselves, including our flaws and weaknesses, we are better able to understand who we truly are. This understanding can lead to greater self-esteem and confidence, which in turn can help us make positive changes in our lives.</p><p>Finally, radical acceptance is also a key component of mindfulness. Mindfulness is about being fully present in the moment and accepting things as they are, without judgment. When we practice radical acceptance, we are able to approach life with a sense of openness and curiosity, which can help us learn and grow in new ways.</p><p>In conclusion, radical acceptance is a powerful tool for personal growth and well-being. By embracing all aspects of ourselves and accepting the reality of our lives, we free ourselves from resistance and can focus on making positive changes. This focus can lead to greater self-awareness, self-esteem, and authentic growth.</p><p>Follow me on Instagram <a href="www.instagram.com/lindsay_sutherland24" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.instagram.com/lindsay_sutherland24</a></p><br/><br/>This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: <br/><br/>Spotify Ad Analytics - https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/ad-analytics-privacy-policy/]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Book Your Complimentary Transformational Conversation at <a href="www.LindsaySutherland.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.LindsaySutherland.com</a></p><p>Radical Acceptance: The Gateway to Authentic Growth</p><p>Radical acceptance is a concept in psychology that refers to the practice of fully accepting and embracing all aspects of ourselves, including our thoughts, feelings, and experiences.

However, today's episode is a mindset Monday episode and we are talking about the mindset of a sense of urgency that some of us lack while others have it on overdrive. Wether you struggle to show up consistently for your business or you feel overwhelmed and over-driven to the point where it is creating imbalance in your life, this episode will help give you strategies you can apply today to start feeling more peaceful.</p><p>For listeners who struggle with getting motivated to work on their business I suggest focusing on showing up consistently for a period of 15 days (to start). Offer yourself a reward for being consistent and work towards just being accountable to yourself. Take the pressure off of getting things done and stop focusing on what you haven't done yet which ultimately deflates your motivation levels even more. Instead make a goal to simply show up and work for a dedicated period of time. Make your focus on one project and work on that until your time goal is reached. After a period of 2 weeks set a new goal and possibly increase the hours you'll show up for (if you have them.)</p><p>For listeners who have the opposite problems and feel overwhelmed by the sense of urgency they have to work on their business I can relate! This was me for most of my life, especially after losing both of my parents at a young age. I felt like I lived with the grim reaper looking over my shoulder ready to cut my time short any day. Later the sense of urgency came from needing financial stability. In the end, after creating more time and more money, I realized I was still driven by this unrelenting sense of urgency. That is when I discovered the root cause is an addiction to being busy and to feeling a need to complete things.</p><p>I learned to switch my focus to the joy of creating and I encourage you to do the same. Part of building a business is the fun of creation and implementing strategies to help it grow. When we damper ourselves with the heaviness of "needing" to get things done, it certainly takes all the fun out of it and puts us in a position to make decisions from a place of panic instead of a creative positive space. To you, my over eager beavers, I say, slow down and reflect on all that you have already done. Take time to be proud of yourself and enjoy each item you build as you work. Practice being present in your business rather than focusing so much on the future and all that is still to be done. </p><p>Let's face it, once you get all this done, you'll only find more to do. It's your nature. Instead focus on and congratulate yourself for your consistency and for diligently working towards your goals.</p><p>Cheers to you PIE tribe listener!

As time has gone on, I've longed to automate and cut the time I spend podcasting down without limiting the number of episodes I produce.</p><p>I made it my mission to automate my podcasting experience as much as possible so that I can limit the amount of outsourcing required and make my life easier.</p><p>If you are podcasting or are considering starting a podcast this episode will be very helpful to give you a comparison between Podbean and Captivate. I used Podbean for nearly two years and only began researching other hosting platforms to find out what newer more advanced tech was out there. I never knew I'd find a platform as robust and easy to use as Captivate.</p><p>Switching my hosting platform was very easy.

Our conversation begins with the state of the world's economic environment including the unstableness of our fiat currency. Then we talk about Josh's legendary crypto flywheel which he uses to demonstrate how you can benefit from crypto in three specific ways...</p><ol><li>Buy and hold (appreciation)</li><li>Crypto farming (Which he goes into much more detail on later in the episode.)</li><li>Leverage (Yes, you can leverage your crypto assets to invest in other asset classes)</li></ol><br/><p>Josh does a phenomenal job of breaking down the crypto content in an easily digestible way. For people who are wanting to understand the topic even more deeply, his cohort, Crypto Y'all is a fantastic place to educate yourself about crypto.</p><p>My husband and I joined the Crypto Y'all cohort and have learned SO much in just a few weeks since this episode was recorded. I admit in the episode my very limited understanding of crypto before meeting Josh. After meeting him and experiencing his ongoing trainings, I feel I'm quickly coming to have a better grasp and feel confident investing. I've even got my own daily crypto passive income stream working for me!</p><p>I encourage you to reach consider joining the Crypto Y'all program if you are serious about learning more about this asset class and really putting it to work for you. </p><p>Click here to find out more <a href="https://www.cryptoyall.co/passive-income-examiner" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.cryptoyall.co/passive-income-examiner</a></p><p>Crypto farming and crypto mining are not the same thing. Crypto mining is essentially the actual mining of block chain which requires massively powerful computers and a lot of techy set-ups. Crypto Farming, on the other hand, does not require this cumbersome set up. Think of crypto farming like investing in a mining operation without having to do any of the mining... like owning a gold mine, not being the miner. </p><p>When an investor offers a crypto fund liquidity by investing in the operation, they are rewarded by daily payouts. Those daily payouts can be harvested, or cashed out, OR can be reinvested back into the project to create compounded returns.

Our conversation begins with the state of the world's economic environment including the unstableness of our fiat currency. Then we talk about Josh's legendary crypto flywheel which he uses to demonstrate how you can benefit from crypto in three specific ways...</p><ol><li>Buy and hold (appreciation)</li><li>Crypto farming (Which he goes into much more detail on later in the episode.)</li><li>Leverage (Yes, you can leverage your crypto assets to invest in other asset classes)</li></ol><br/><p>Josh does a phenomenal job of breaking down the crypto content in an easily digestible way. For people who are wanting to understand the topic even more deeply, his cohort, Crypto Y'all is a fantastic place to educate yourself about crypto.</p><p>My husband and I joined the Crypto Y'all cohort and have learned SO much in just a few weeks since this episode was recorded. I admit in the episode my very limited understanding of crypto before meeting Josh. After meeting him and experiencing his ongoing trainings, I feel I'm quickly coming to have a better grasp and feel confident investing. I've even got my own daily crypto passive income stream working for me!</p><p>I encourage you to reach consider joining the Crypto Y'all program if you are serious about learning more about this asset class and really putting it to work for you. </p><p>Click here to find out more <a href="https://www.cryptoyall.co/passive-income-examiner" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.cryptoyall.co/passive-income-examiner</a></p><p>Crypto farming and crypto mining are not the same thing. Crypto mining is essentially the actual mining of block chain which requires massively powerful computers and a lot of techy set-ups. Crypto Farming, on the other hand, does not require this cumbersome set up. Think of crypto farming like investing in a mining operation without having to do any of the mining... like owning a gold mine, not being the miner. </p><p>When an investor offers a crypto fund liquidity by investing in the operation, they are rewarded by daily payouts. Those daily payouts can be harvested, or cashed out, OR can be reinvested back into the project to create compounded returns. Leveraging the rule of 72, one could invest $5000 and let the proceeds continue building on themselves and essentially double their money every year. However, some farms perform even more strongly than the Rule of 72 and some investors are netting a more than 100% return on their money.</p><p>The world of defi is an interesting one that can also seem scary. I've been really grateful to have Josh guiding us, helping us learn where to get accurate information, and he has held our hand as we have begun our crypto investing journey. </p><p>I can't say enough positive things about the Crypto Y'all cohort.

She homeschooled her boys who eventually discovered their own interest in online business. Over time, each of her sons played a role in helping her build the E-commerce Business School; a school dedicated to helping people escape the rat race by making consistent income with an Amazon retail store.</p><p>Ann's heart-driven mission is seasoned with 18 years of experience helping families. After learning more about her and her team I felt strongly that they're a great resource for the PIE Tribe!</p><p>Ann and I hosted a workshop together to help you get more familiar with her program. The workshop details:</p><p>- How long does it take to make money with an Amazon Store</p><p>- How much time and energy does it take to build an Amazon Store</p><p>- How much experience do you need to make a profitable Amazon Store</p><p>- Plus, when you register, you'll receive Ann's Profit Projection Calculator that shows exactly how much you need to invest to reach your monthly goals... whether that’s an extra 1k, 5k, or 10k+ per month! You'll get a copy of the calculator to use on your own. And you'll receive a workbook created specifically for the workshop so you can really dig into the training.</p><p><em>I love when we find partners that can illuminate the path and dispel the muddy waters! </em><a href="https://passive-income-examiner.captivate.fm/amazon-store" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Click this text</em></a><em> to register for the free webinar to see if building an Amazon store is right for you.</em></p><p>Some say Amazon stores are not passive because they can be labor-intensive. This is certainly true if you try to build and maintain the store on your own. This is why the E-commerce Business School teaches its students to build a business that incorporates outsourced labor to offset the time and energy you personally are putting into the business. Although, Ann and I agree that it is vital for each business owner to be well-versed in all aspects of the business and to have a clear understanding of how each element works so that you can effectively manage your investment.</p><p>I asked Ann about how many people she has helped build an Amazon store. The answer blew me away! Almost 9,000 people have built life-changing Amazon businesses as a result of the E-commerce Business Schools training. The success of her students is personally a high priority to Ann which was another reason I decided to sponsor her program.

She homeschooled her boys who eventually discovered their own interest in online business. Over time, each of her sons played a role in helping her build the E-commerce Business School; a school dedicated to helping people escape the rat race by making consistent income with an Amazon retail store.</p><p>Ann's heart-driven mission is seasoned with 18 years of experience helping families. After learning more about her and her team I felt strongly that they're a great resource for the PIE Tribe!</p><p>Ann and I hosted a workshop together to help you get more familiar with her program. The workshop details:</p><p>- How long does it take to make money with an Amazon Store</p><p>- How much time and energy does it take to build an Amazon Store</p><p>- How much experience do you need to make a profitable Amazon Store</p><p>- Plus, when you register, you'll receive Ann's Profit Projection Calculator that shows exactly how much you need to invest to reach your monthly goals... whether that’s an extra 1k, 5k, or 10k+ per month! You'll get a copy of the calculator to use on your own. And you'll receive a workbook created specifically for the workshop so you can really dig into the training.</p><p><em>I love when we find partners that can illuminate the path and dispel the muddy waters! </em><a href="https://passive-income-examiner.captivate.fm/amazon-store" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Click this text</em></a><em> to register for the free webinar to see if building an Amazon store is right for you.</em></p><p>Some say Amazon stores are not passive because they can be labor-intensive. This is certainly true if you try to build and maintain the store on your own. This is why the E-commerce Business School teaches its students to build a business that incorporates outsourced labor to offset the time and energy you personally are putting into the business. Although, Ann and I agree that it is vital for each business owner to be well-versed in all aspects of the business and to have a clear understanding of how each element works so that you can effectively manage your investment.</p><p>I asked Ann about how many people she has helped build an Amazon store. The answer blew me away! Almost 9,000 people have built life-changing Amazon businesses as a result of the E-commerce Business Schools training. The success of her students is personally a high priority to Ann which was another reason I decided to sponsor her program. I love how she helps people systemize their businesses from the ground up so that they can quickly scale. </p><p>When built correctly, Amazon retail stores can be a revenue-generating machine.

A Question To Help You Get Clear On Your Goals</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Are you living your life on autopilot? Getting up each day and going through the motions thinking that "one day" you'll get some passive income going. Or maybe, once a situation in your life calms down, or your spouse's job situation changes, THEN you'll take the plunge and move the needle in your life!</p><p>We can get stuck in a rut by doing this because it is so easy to go through the motions, focus on the day ahead, and the day after that... and quickly lose sight of the big dream and big mission you have in your heart.</p><p>I can remember many times having a horrible day, feeling like everything just was piling up on me, forcing me to long for change. For many years our log cabin dream was just that, a dream. An idea we would pull off the shelf and discuss on these "bad days."

I think EVERY entrepreneur does. Recently, I was listening to the Ed Mylett Show and he and his guest Eric Thomas both admitted that even still they experience imposter syndrome at times.</p>
<p>I believe imposter syndrome happens because we set a place in our minds and call it "there" and until we get "there" we decide we don't have what it takes to reach our goal, make the impact we want, or produce the very thing we excel at.</p>
<p>In today's episode, I reveal a verbal slap in the face that my good friend Abra hit me up with that shook me and helped propel me over my imposter syndrome. </p>
<p>And, did you know that negative thinking is the number 1 addiction - especially in the US. Negative thinking is simply a habit that we have learned and that we can change. This topic ties in perfectly with overcoming imposter syndrome because I show you exactly how you can create a habit of positive thinking that can push you past the imposter syndrome hurdle.</p>
<p>If you are an aspiring entrepreneur this episode is a must-listen.</p>

LOL. Maybe it's not that serious, but many budding entrepreneurs and even successful business owners still ask what is SEO and how can they leverage it for their business. This week's episode explains what SEO, which stands for search engine optimization, is and three strategies you can implement on your website or blog to start capitalizing on this important part of online marketing.</p>
<p>We discuss what </p>
<p>Technical optimization is: That is essentially optimizing your blog or webpage via the SEO function on the backend of your site. This will impact how your page displays on search engines and where it leads your searcher too. Power tip: Make sure to add the deep link that takes searches exactly where they want to go to get the information they are searching for.</p>
<p>On-Page Optimization: This is formatting your copy, images, and headlines with keyword-rich phrases.</p>
<p>Off-Page Optimization: This involves using outside platforms and recourses to create backlinks to your website which help promote it and increase its relevancy in search algorithms.</p>
<p>We also touch on ways to improve search engine optimization for your e-commerce store such as Etsy, Shopify, and Amazon.</p>

In this episode, she shares how she replaced her income in 90 days and built her business as an expert in Instagram Reels and TikTok strategy. </p>
<p>Kaitlyn and Lindsay discuss-</p>
<p>- Should we follow the trends, or do our own thing on social?</p>
<p>- How to create 4 to 5 reels in an hour</p>
<p>- How social media is NOT a marketing plan, it's just part of the plan.</p>
<p>- TikTok is trend-setting: "Most Instagram trends are carryovers from TikTok"</p>
<p>- Tip! Use a trending audio on a low volume while you share your content. This allows you to show up on trending audio feeds as well as the hashtag feed.</p>
<p>- Custom audio's are now trending more than music (on TikTok)</p>
<p>- How often should you be putting out content? "As often as YOU feel comfortable." TikTok is more about quality over quantity to be successful. The more quality content you can create, the better your odds of going viral.</p>
<p>- How to create content if you aren't "entertaining."</p>
<p>Meet Kaitlyn:</p>
Kaitlyn Pierce is a New England girl from the Berkshires in Western Massachusetts and is an entrepreneur at heart having launched Pierce Social, her social media production and management company in 2016. 
 
Known for being a passionate and dedicated strategist, Kaitlyn thrives on watching big ideas come to fruition and helping those throughout her community. As a wife and mom of three incredible little girls herself, her goal is to inspire them daily with the life she has worked so hard to create. 
 
When she’s not designing a new workflow or program for her social media students or chasing the girls around outside, you can find her trying her hand at gardening or watercolors- two things that are still very much a “work in progress” for her at the moment, or planning the next few lessons for their homeschool.

Tune into this episode with Kylie Lang,  a Quiz Funnel Strategist, Course Creator and founder of the ’Fab Factor,’ who answers that question and shares her quiz funnel best practices for entrepreneurs and business owners.

Kylie works with course creators and coaches to grow their email list, get more leads and have sell-out launches using the power of an automated quiz funnel. After running her digital course company for nearly 14 years, when there was no social media to speak of and most courses were paper-based, she’s made plenty of mistakes and been part of the massive growth of digital marketing at the grassroots level. Fast forward to 2022 and she’s had multiple 6 figure launches and seen her email list increase by over 700% by creating highly converting quiz funnels.

<p>- Expect to do more work than you think you will - setting up procedures and adding extra tasks to your own plate to make it easier for your VA are going to happen! It's better to know ahead of time.</p>
<p>- Plan on a 90-day learning curve for you AND your team member - outsourcing help will create new challenges you were not expecting, but it all sorts out around 90 days.</p>
<p>- Use Loom to create training videos that can be used next time you onboard help.</p>

More concerning is that the hippocampus is the part of the brain that gets destroyed by Alzheimer’s.

<p>Besides the negative impact on our mental health, complaining erodes our physical well-being, productivity, creativity, and our relationships.</p>
<p>But, sometimes it can feel impossible to stop! Especially when we feel justified or compelled to prove our point.</p>

Rather than creating a list of customers, brands with active communities create a conglomeration of advocates - people who are willing to tell their friends about the products they love and the brand they feel close to. However, despite the amazing technology at our fingertips, it seems as though more brands are isolating themselves from their consumers by focusing on dollars rather than people. </p>
<p>Today's guest, Lucas Root, teaches us how to build a framework for an effective community. For brick and mortar businesses as well as online-only businesses. Not only that, but we get deep into a discussion about empowering ourselves to turn the tides of our lives when the path we are on is not aligned with who we want to become. This episode is not only informative but also interesting and surely one you won't want to miss!</p>
<p>For over 17 years Lucas led numerous teams on Wall Street. After establishing a consistent track record of successes, Lucas started his own consulting business. Lucas works with strong brands with a well-funded great idea, who don’t quite know how to execute. Since early 2019, Lucas has had the wonderful opportunity to speak to numerous audiences in North America, Australia, and Europe, as well as partner with both businesses and VCs for mentoring.</p>

Do you feel like your mind is constantly racing with new ideas, problem-solving puzzles, keeping a list of to-dos and an update on your calendar? And you wonder why you feel so mentally drained at the end of the day (haha.) This episode is focused on the mindset of clearing the mind! Having a clear mind is so important for business owners and as humans. It allows us to be present and calm. To experience clarity about ourselves and our future. It fosters richer quality time with friends and family. And overall reduces stress.

<p>When I connected with Jen Meyers on Facebook I knew instantly I wanted to invite her onto the show. I am a member of her free facebook group Homeschool CEO, a community for entrepreneurs and business owners who homeschool. I love the connection with other moms and the content Jen offers. Not only is she a fellow homeschool mom, but she is an accomplished business woman who has built not just one, but three highly successful businesses while raising her kids. Jen did not start out wanting to homeschool her kids and she shares her incredible story that led her down this path. Also, In this episode Jen inspires us with her wisdom, encourages us with her message to follow our instincts, and demonstrates how to build a thriving community that produces truly passive income. In all truth this episode is worth a double listen! Now, let me stop talking and let’s get too it!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>About Jen: From teen mom to step-mom to serial entrepreneur, Jen Myers has defied all odds and built three six figure plus businesses while homeschooling four kiddos over the past 18 years. From brick and mortar businesses to online leveraged businesses, Jen has learned how to creatively think outside the box to achieve success without sacrificing her priorities (or her sanity). She is the founder of the Homeschool CEO Movement, a global community that supports women who juggling motherhood, entrepreneurship, and homeschooling; and she's on a mission to help entrepreneurs live a life of freedom and flexibility - for their entire family. </p>

Firstly, may I just say a HUGE THANK YOU to all of you for listening and subscribing. It is because of you that I do this and your loyalty means the world to me!</p>
<p>8 months into a passive online business is a feat to be proud of for anyone, but often when we budding entrepreneurs get started it is easy to get discouraged or knocked off course. It is all to easy to compare ourselves to others and get caught up in shiny object syndrome! (I'm totally guilty of this!)</p>
<p>That is why I feel it is so important to share my journey to building an online business with you in all its rawness in hopes that you can have a true perspective of what it is like and to document my journey so I can celebrate my successes later with you.</p>
<p>In this episode I talk about mistakes I made and struggles I've had as well as share my favorite things about podcasting thus far.</p>
<p>Once more, thank you for tuning in and subscribing!</p>
<p>Until next week :)</p>

You will transform your worry into faith in the possible AND feel empowered to take steps to achieve your goals and dreams. I&apos;ve spent years overcoming my stinking thinking. I know the tricks and tips that will help you turn your mind around and your life! Too often we have one major thing stopping us from going for our dreams and that is fear and doubt. There is no actual threat holding us - it simply boils down to our own minds blocking us by making us lose faith in the possibility that we CAN ACHIEVE OUR GOALS! It&apos;s time to stop limiting ourselves. It&apos;s time to chase the dreams we are worthy of having! &lt;/p&gt;
