Have you ever realized you were living the life someone else imagined for you?Andrew Mitch did everything right on paper. He followed the rules, earned the degrees, and chased approval until the weight of it all became too heavy to carry. When he finally walked away from the life others expected, he found the beginning of his own. What unfolded next was unexpected. A stranger at a restaurant table looked at him through tears and said, “Whatever you have, the world needs to hear it now.” That moment shifted everything. It was the reminder that his voice mattered, and that he no longer needed permission to use it. This is a story about leaving certainty for something more alive. About learning to be seen, to create honestly, and to trust that your real self is enough.Take your time with this one. It is tender and real. What You’ll Hear The quiet pressure of chasing someone else’s version of success How leaving a PhD program became an act of self-trust The beauty of being seen by a stranger who changed everything The tension between faith, identity, and authenticity Learning to stop asking for permission to create What it means to live unapologetically yourself Guest Bio From small-town Ohio to Nashville, Andrew Mitch is making waves in country-pop with raw emotion, personal truth, and storytelling. His breakout single “all in my head” went viral, crowdfunded his debut album, and earned features from CMA, CMT, GLAAD, and more. With millions of views, 30K+ followers, and praise from artists like Carly Pearce and Ingrid Andress, Andrew has since released songs like "back home boy" (featured on Nashville's very own WSMV4) and "unapologetic." He continues to prove there’s power in being unapologetically yourself. Connect with Andrew: https://www.andrewmitchmusic.com/ Listen at www.thelifeshiftpodcast.com/follow.

John Bunn recently launched his solo podcast "Shifting Focus" after years of co-hosting How to Film Weddings. Starting with over $400K in student debt, he's built a wedding business that now books $30K+ weddings and has his entire year's expenses covered by the first month. John shares the psychology behind premium pricing, why cash flow equals creative freedom, and how getting specific about your ideal client changes everything about your business. Key Takeaways When you don't need the money, you come across completely different in sales calls—clients can sense desperation vs. abundance Getting laser-focused on your ideal client (not just any client with money) is what allows you to charge premium rates Cash is oxygen for your business—sometimes picking up part-time work is the smartest move to take pressure off while you build Consistency in the right activities (not just any activities) is what creates long-term success in creative businesses About John Bunn John Bunn is a wedding industry educator and mentor who has dedicated his career to elevating professionals through practical, results-driven education. After starting his own wedding video business in 2007, Bunn went on to film and photograph over 550 weddings, gaining deep insights into what truly drives success in the industry. Since transitioning to education in 2018, Bunn has mentored and worked with tens of thousands of wedding professionals, focusing on what he calls "the things that nobody wants to talk about" — the fundamental business practices that create lasting success beyond fleeting trends. Bunn's approach is rooted in real-world experience and a belief that sustainable success comes from shifting focus to what actually matters. His passion for teaching stems from the countless success stories he's witnessed, from working mothers who've transitioned to full-time wedding businesses to professionals finally booking their dream clients. Known for his straightforward, no-nonsense approach, Bunn emphasizes that "trends come, and trends go, but those who shift their focus and put in the work are the true success stories." His mission is to help wedding professionals cut through industry noise and concentrate on the strategies that will genuinely impact their businesses and families. As both mentor and coach, Bunn brings over 15 years of hands-on wedding industry experience combined with a track record of transforming careers through focused, practical education.

Robert Reich wrote on his substack for September 16, One study found that half of Americans expect a second civil war to happen "in the next few years," even if the specifics vary according to one's politics and imagination. On the other hand, unlike the Civil War of 1861-1865, no particular issue — like slavery back then — pulls the nation apart. While immigration, crime, abortion, and LGBTQ+ rights are controversial, none of these seem to elicit the anger and passions that might generate civil war. Nor are we enduring an economic calamity, pandemic, world war, or other national cataclysm that might force Americans to take sides. While we are not experiencing a singular polarizing issue like Slavery, and though we can't point to a singular economic calamity that brought this on, it is in fact  decades of economic factors and now a looming economic disaster that has put us here.  We've managed to create an economy over a half century that excludes, then isolates individuals by limiting access to everything from communications to housing, your home sitting at the apex of human need. Socially we tell the newly minted abandoned economic nomads that it's their fault.  Our systems and our leaders constantly remind them in a myriad of ways that they don't have what it takes to 'make it'. Then we forget these individuals unless or until they commit a mass shooting, or we find them dead of an overdose behind the Walgreens. Maybe just maybe they are thought of by elected officials from time to time when their votes are needed.    My thoughts on our society have been shaped in part by my experiences as a youngster with poverty.  My young life started stable and solidly middle class then descended, through family circumstance, into the grips of poverty. Don't get me wrong, I have countless fond memories from my upbringing. Here though, I'd rather for a moment focus on our experiences that represent the other side of growing up in America. Growing up poor in America. A friend once recounted the quote, 'the only thing worse than a country full of have-nots is a country full of used-to-haves'. We are a country massed with people who know what they are missing. For decades, some of us were building a society based on creativity, positive energy, robust education…… for some of us while for others,  we've built a society where resentment, economic fear, shame for your economic status; we took this underbelly of societal cancer and metastasized it. We've turned grief into grievance. We've given nearly all the worst in each and every one of us a voice and put it to work in the service of accelerating the downward spiral that enriches an ever smaller number of our neighbors.  I am the product of the 1980's.  My life has occurred during the dismantling of the New Deal.  I'm also proud of my family's immigrant heritage.  I believe in the countless individual stories that make up the story of North America.  That tell us the story of the American Experiment.  The community in central Massachusetts where I grew up was no stranger to global changes in the economy, albeit being in the northeast meant we were spared the very worst of de-industrialization until well into the early aughts.   Our family suffered a divorce, not an affliction caused by economics but one that significantly altered the economic trajectory of our little family.  What's so striking to me to this day, is the dichotomy between those that were always there to help, with those community members who suddenly discovered, to my little mind, that we had committed a grave transgression.  Did they think we'd give them the flu?  Was it something Mom said? Do I have something on my shirt?  You see it when people look just above your head into the distance when you approach.  You begin to understand that some people still have what you once had and they might even be taking it for granted.   People stopped talking to us at church. The farther we got away from affluence, the further folks seemed to get away from us.  I was learning a seminal point that we don't like to tell ourselves about ourselves.  For all that Americans can be wonderfully gracious when called upon, there are just as many of us who long ago gave into the desire of self-preservation by blaming others when those others need help. By keeping a distance from the affliction of poverty.  Maybe just maybe by doing so, we won't get any on us.  Except the churning economic deprivation knows no boundaries.  Doesn't stop for anything.  Denying our systems have been kicking people to the side of the road, while kicking the Spector of debt, failed systems and social ills down the road, has left us in grave peril. Frank Zappa said, 'The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it's profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater'. I fear that the show is about to be over.  _________   History.  It's what keeps me getting up every morning. It's what keeps me trying with all my might to build more housing, to build new companies and to write like this.  We've been here before.  This isn't our first Gilded Age.  We've lived with the presence of Jim Crow and widespread open bigotry and classism; tools used to split the populace to the benefit of the elite. The Klan marched 30K plus in Washington, DC in 1923.  They also tried to march on my very hometown in 1924, immigrants including some family members stopped them in their tracks at the town border.  People get pissed, it turns out, when they know what they're missing.  If you think you can write, then write.  If you can organize, then organize.  Reach out to just one person, commiserate, and grow your group from there.  There is strength in numbers.  When you see an injustice, you really should call it out.  Remember the Zappa quote?  Demand a refund on your ticket. Demand a free and fair election. Demand a more inclusive economy.  Participate in solutions.  Create the right, instead of avenging the wrong.  Most importantly, Love one another.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.houseofstrauss.com2Way founder Mark Halperin was a big time journalist in network television media, originally making a name for himself covering the Bill Clinton campaign. The Game Change co-author is now a YouTube success, having produced what was, in my opinion, the best coverage of the 2024 election. I know of no other person better positioned to comment on what's happened in political media, with a 30K foot vantage. And so I asked him a range of stupid questions, mostly under the banner of, “What the hell is going on?” Topics include but aren't limited to!* When did the Media drift into party advocacy?* The lasting impact of the 2016 election on media* What killed the earnest practice of “both sidesism”?* Were you nervous on Election Day?* Two entertainment ecosystems, boomer and everyone else* Did the Media used to be better?* Are conservatives more open to debate right now?* News as act of curation (Twitter can spotlight racialized police killings, or it can spotlight immigrant crime)* Graham Platner's bad week and the new skeletons in candidate closets* What do you make of the male flight from the Democratic Party?* What do you make of potential senior flight from the Republican Party?* What do you make of the No Kings protests?* Why is traditional media still hard to crack for Republicans?

Speed to Lead: The $30K Mistake Killing Your Clinic Growth In this episode, Doc Danny Matta breaks down one of the most overlooked profit leaks in cash-based practice ownership — slow lead follow-up. Learn how the average clinic loses tens of thousands each month from poor contact speed, and discover a simple system to fix it fast. Quick Ask Help us hit our mission of adding $1B in cash-based services to physical therapy. Share this episode with a clinician friend or post it on your Instagram stories — tag @dannymattaPT so he can reshare it! Episode Summary Big picture: Most clinics lose $30K+ per month from slow follow-up and poor lead management. The data gap: The average healthcare clinic takes 2 hours and 5 minutes to respond to a lead — consumers expect 10–15 minutes. Industry average: Only 11% of people who fill out a healthcare form ever become patients. 100x advantage: Responding within 5 minutes increases your chance of conversion by 100 times. The math: Raising your contact-to-eval rate from 40% to 70% could add $30,000/month in revenue — no new ads, no new spend. Lessons & Takeaways Track everything: If you don't measure conversion from contact to eval, you're flying blind. Speed to lead: Reach out within 5–15 minutes when someone submits a form or books a call. Multi-touch follow-up: Use 5–7 touch points (calls, texts, emails) in the first 1–2 weeks. Auto + human combo: Use automated confirmations plus manual outreach to maximize connection. Text wins: Consumers are far more likely to reply to a text than a voicemail. Mindset & Motivation Serve, don't sell: Follow-up isn't pestering — it's helping people make the change they already want. Fix the leak first: Don't spend more on marketing until your conversion system works. Track the funnel: Know your contact requests, booked calls, evals, and follow-ups weekly. Pro Tips for Owners Set notifications: When a new form is submitted, get instant alerts via Slack or text. Train your admin: Give them scripts for fast responses and early scheduling. Layer automation: Confirm appointments automatically via text + email. Segment leads: Prioritize same-day outreach for hot leads; move cold leads to your newsletter. Systemize: Build a “speed to lead” SOP — who calls, who texts, and when. Notable Quotes “If you can respond within five minutes, it increases the likelihood they'll become a client by 100 times.” “Fortune is in the follow-up — and most clinics aren't following up at all.” “Nobody wants PT; they want the freedom PT gives them. Help them get it by being responsive.” Action Items Audit your lead-to-eval conversion rate. Implement instant text + email confirmation for all form submissions. Create a 5–7 touchpoint follow-up plan over two weeks. Assign ownership: Who calls, who texts, and how soon? Review results monthly — aim for 70% contact-to-eval conversion.

AODocs manages business-critical documents for enterprises where downtime has real consequences—production lines stopping, construction projects delayed, containers sitting at ports. Founded in 2012 and bootstrapped to profitability by 2022, the company serves Google's data center builds, aerospace manufacturers' FAA certifications, and Veolia's water treatment operations. In this episode of Category Visionaries, we sat down with Stéphan Donzé, Founder of AODocs, to unpack his 14-year journey from Google ecosystem specialist to Microsoft-compatible platform. Stéphan shares unfiltered lessons from the brutal 2014-15 years when cloud platform limitations broke customer deployments, why they've reconsidered fundraising every two years but remained independent, and how AI agents finally created the urgency factor their category always lacked. Topics Discussed: Surviving 2014-15 when Google Cloud platform performance limits broke at scale Bootstrapping via services company profits until standalone profitability in 2022 Why long-term document lifecycle management (10-30 year retention) resists VC timelines Expanding from Google workspace early adopters to Microsoft enterprise accounts The failed experiment with cloud reseller partners who couldn't deploy DMS Why marketing hire ramp time equals technical hire ramp for platform products Medium-sized industry conferences outperforming 30K-attendee mega-events on cost-per-lead Positioning as document foundation for reliable AI agent information access GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Transparent post-mortem communication converts crises into trust: When AODocs hit unexpected Google Cloud platform limitations in 2014-15—breaking deployments for customers running mission-critical workflows—they published detailed explanations of root causes outside their control and remediation plans. Stéphan explained: "We've always been extremely transparent...Yes, we screwed up here. Here is the thing we put in place so that it doesn't happen again." This approach consistently strengthened customer relationships during their worst incidents. For founders in business-critical infrastructure: your crisis response protocols matter more than preventing every outage. Bootstrap via complementary services revenue until product-market fit: AODocs funded development by merging with a Google Cloud consulting firm that deployed early Gmail enterprise implementations. Services profits subsidized product R&D while providing direct customer access. Stéphan described the deal structure: "I have a software company that has no revenue, but I can suck the profit of the service company until I make revenue." The model worked until 2022 when AODocs became independently profitable. For technical founders: identify services businesses with your target customer base as bootstrap partners, not just revenue sources. Partner technical capability trumps partner pipeline size: AODocs initially partnered with Google Cloud resellers (SATA, Onix) who had enterprise access but couldn't scope or deploy document management implementations. The inflection point came shifting to system integrators with actual DMS practices. Stéphan noted: "These guys don't really understand document management...they could not really help us deploy our product because they don't understand what we're doing." For complex B2B products: vet partners on technical delivery capacity, not just lead generation promises. Platform products require 12-month marketing onboarding: AODocs learned marketing hires need equivalent ramp time as engineering roles—not two one-pagers and go-to-market. Stéphan's realization: "It takes a year before someone is able to write the right things and to sense the essence of the product." This applies specifically to platforms with multiple use cases, not point solutions. For founders with horizontal platforms: budget full-year onboarding before expecting marketing productivity, or hire people who've sold similar complexity before. Founder must own category positioning until $10M ARR: Stéphan argues technical founders can't delegate core messaging early: "My personal take is that in the tech company the CMO cannot be anybody else than the founder itself at least for the first $10 million." This comes from watching marketing experts produce "beautiful words and lots of fluff but still not get the essence of what we're doing." For technical founders uncomfortable with marketing: you're avoiding your most important job in the early years. Regional 2K-5K conferences deliver better unit economics than flagship 30K events: While AODocs attends Google Next (30,000) and Gartner conferences, smaller regional IT decision-maker events generated superior cost-per-qualified-lead. Stéphan's finding: "If you look at the number of dollars you spend per lead that you get, the small events are surprisingly effective." This contradicts conventional wisdom about flagship event ROI. For enterprise B2B: test regional and vertical conferences before scaling spend on mega-events. Technology paradigm shifts create replacement urgency: AODocs positioned as "modern cloud-based document management" for years without forcing function to rip out legacy systems. AI agents changed the calculus entirely. Stéphan's repositioning: "If you don't upgrade your document foundation, you won't be able to benefit from the AI productivity acceleration." The urgency comes from AI agents requiring clean, validated document repositories—impossible with SharePoint chaos. For founders in infrastructure categories: look for adjacent technology waves that make your solution prerequisite, not optional upgrade. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

As a recovering perfectionist, I'm calling myself (and you) out in this episode. For years, I thought my perfectionism was my superpower - that spirit of excellence that would set me apart in business. Turns out, it was the very thing holding me back from the success I desperately wanted. In this deeply personal episode, I'm sharing why "imperfectionism" has become my new operating system and how it's revolutionized not just my business, but my entire life. From losing $12K in 15 minutes in the stock market to building multiple successful businesses, I've learned that consistent, imperfect action beats perfectionism every single time. Here's what we're diving into: Why perfectionism is actually a setup for failure (and what to do instead) The counterintuitive truth about failed campaigns and why they mean you're doing it RIGHT How I manage emotional highs and lows (a lesson from my $30K trading month) The "reductionist viewpoint" that gave me hours back in my week Why being prolific beats being perfect - and how to make this your new normal The raw truth about how perfectionism was making me show up as "kind of an a-hole" with my family The mindset shifts that separate successful online entrepreneurs from those who struggle I get vulnerable about my own journey - including recent trading losses, client disappointments, and the humbling realization that despite thinking I knew everything about business years ago, I'm still learning every day from my mother, a multimillionaire mentor who taught me many of these lessons. This isn't just another business strategy episode. It's about recognizing that how you do one thing is how you do everything. If you're paralyzed by perfectionism in your business, it's affecting your relationships, your creativity, and your ability to grow. Whether you're waiting to launch that course until it's "perfect," sitting on content because it's not "good enough," or afraid to run ads because you might lose money - this episode is your wake-up call. Key Takeaway: Good enough IS good enough when it's consistent. Your imperfect action today beats your perfect plan for tomorrow.

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're breaking down how pregnancy #2 has changed our relationship. From deeper connection and more appreciation to a few more... heated moments (hi, hormones), we're talking about what this season has brought up for us both.

Before all that: when's the best time to travel with a baby (we have thoughts), why this stage of Tate (1 year old!!) might actually be our favorite yet, and a discussion on the “mom guilt” that's starting to creep in while sick in bed.  And in Things We DMed Each Other: a $30K baby-name consultant (????????) and a debate over whether pregnancy is actually harder than running a marathon (we're siding with pregnancy).

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1173: Scott Painter steers TrueCar back to private ownership, CarGurus says buyers are going older to stay on budget, and freelancers navigate the double-edged sword of AI—faster work, smaller paychecks, and a whole lot of “good enough.”Show Notes with links:TrueCar's founder and former CEO, Scott Painter, is back. Nearly a decade after his controversial exit, Painter is leading a $227 million investor group to take the publicly traded company private — a bold move aimed at restoring TrueCar's dealer relationships and market relevance.Painter's syndicate, Fair Holdings Inc., includes investors from dealer, data, fintech, and mobility sectors.He'll return as CEO once the all-cash transaction closes in late 2025, pending shareholder and regulatory approval.The deal follows a year-long strategic review by TrueCar's board, seeking a sustainable path forward after layoffs and leadership turnover.TrueCar's stock surged 62% on the announcement, closing at $2.40.Painter emphasized collaboration: “Partnerships and brand alignment are central to creating value for both dealers and customers.”CarGurus' Q3 2025 Quarterly Review shows that when it comes to cars, “old is in.” Despite economic pressure, auto sales are holding steady — but buyers are opting for older, cheaper vehicles to keep monthly payments manageable.Used vehicles under $30K drove 72% of used retail growth over the past year. Nearly half of listings in that range were 7+ years old, averaging $13,600.Director Kevin Roberts says shoppers are split between value-seekers buying older cars and wealthier consumers driving luxury growth.Dealers may need to lean on older inventory and fixed ops to meet demand and keep aging cars running.California, Florida, Texas, and Virginia lead the nation in used cars under $20K, each with 30% or more of listings.“Buyers are increasingly accepting six-figure-mile cars to keep payments within reach,” Roberts noted.AI is reshaping the freelance economy, creating both opportunity and uncertainty for side hustlers. While tools like ChatGPT help freelancers work faster, they're also undercutting pay, originality, and client perception of value.Freelancers say AI boosts efficiency but drives down earnings—writing jobs fell 2%, and income dropped 5% on Upwork after ChatGPT's release.AI lowers the barrier to entry, flooding the market with cheaper “good enough” work that makes it harder for top-tier talent to stand out.Clients increasingly expect AI-level output for less, with some even replacing human contractors with automation tools.“High quality doesn't really protect freelancers,” said Washington University professor Xiang Hui, noting that AI hits experienced workers hardest.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Why LinkedIn Could Be Your Biggest Growth Channel If you're tired of chasing likes on Instagram, take a page from Danielle's playbook. She used LinkedIn to intentionally grow her agency by filling her audience with only ideal clients, welcoming them with simple DMs, and starting real conversations.  Instead of fighting tricky algorithms, she focused on building a network of the right people. The fact is: You don't need to go viral. You need a system that attracts and nurtures the exact clients you want. Why Posting Alone Won't Close Deals Think your content will do all the selling for you? Danielle learned that's rarely the case. Marketing grabs attention, but sales happen when you follow up, ask clear questions, and keep conversations alive. She talks about her complete pipeline: qualifying leads, nurturing them with content, and then asking for the sale when the timing is right.  One of her clients took two years of consistent follow-up before finally investing $30K.  For you, the lesson is simple: don't give up too early. Keep showing up until your prospect is ready. Enjoy this episode with Danielle Cevallos… Soundbytes 21:27 - 21:37 “I never, ever pitched anything, ever.

You are not Shelby Sapp. You cannot show up with your workout set, your energy drink, and close people within two minutes on a call because you can hold frame. You have the confidence, and you have whatever secret sauce she is secreting. And that's fine.Sales is a hot topic right now. I don't know if you're on the same side of Instagram I'm on, but I keep seeing video after video of high-ticket closers teaching “how to handle objections” — these women in their twenties, making it for themselves, buying flashy cars, and saying, “I'm in sales, I can help you get into sales.”And maybe you even have a specific name popping into your head — Shelby Sapp. Sales has officially become cool.So today, I'm giving you a counter perspective. If you love that vibe — amazing. But if you're the person who thinks, “I can't sell like that. I don't even want to,” this episode is for you.

We need to stop right now and take a 30K foot level view of Charlie Kirk's assassination. Why did they do it? And why do they want us in the weeds focusing on small details. It's becoming crystal clear that The CIA and three letter agency connections to the Charlie Kirk assassination are growing too obvious to ignore at this point. Use Tyler Robinson as a patsy, use a convenient trans cover story, admit that you have overwhelming digital data during a court hearing yesterday, ask for a delay because there's just too much Digital evidence against Tyler. The CIA is really good at planting digital evidence. Allow cameras in the courtroom to help sell your story. Former CIA agents and CIA whistleblowers are admitting this has all the hallmarks of a CIA or Intel operation.
