If you're staring at your calendar in June thinking, "Oh my gosh, what am I about to do with the kids home all stinking summer," this episode was created exactly for you.You do not have to white-knuckle your way through the next eight weeks. You don't have to ghost your clients. You don't have to skip the beach. And you definitely don't have to work from a hotel bathroom at 11pm while your kids are asleep.There is a way to actually do this. I've coached hundreds of women through it, and I pretty much live on a summer schedule 365 days out of the year. So let's get into it, friend.In This Episode, You'll Learn:The mindset shift you HAVE to make about summer (this is non-negotiable, and it's the reason most service providers melt down in June)The 4 client conversations you need to have this week (with the exact energy to bring to them)Why "I need to hire someone to cover for me" is the wrong instinct, and what to do insteadThe Summer Work Bucket List framework: full work weeks, modified weeks, and vacation weeks (and how to map every week of your summer into one of the three)The "power days and pockets" rhythm my Strategist Society members use to run profitable businesses while travelingA real student example: how one of our members handled a Disney cruise with four retainer clients and ads runningWhat to do RIGHT NOW if you didn't pre-plan and your summer is already on fireMentioned in This Episode:Strategist Society: thestrategistsociety.comConversions For Clients: conversionsforclients.comDM me on Instagram: @brandimowles (send the word SUMMER)Ready to Scale Past $10K Months?If you're sitting at $3K to $10K months as a service provider and you're tired of trading hours for dollars (especially when summer or any time off destroys your income), Strategist Society is exactly where you need to be.

You didn't run out of skills. You ran out of model.If you're a physical therapist, yoga teacher, acupuncturist, massage therapist, or chiropractor wondering how to make $10K months online — and you've been told the answer is more sessions, more certifications, or grinding harder — this episode is the correction. The jump from $3K to $10K months isn't about working more. It's about swapping the 1970s "revenue = hours" math for leverage: a packaged online program, pricing that reflects what your expertise is actually worth, and messaging that turns followers into clients.Your practitioner skills are not the problem. Your business structure is. And the timeline to fix it doesn't have to take five more years.If you've been Googling or asking ChatGPT things like:"how to replace my clinic salary with online income""how to stop trading hours for dollars as a wellness practitioner""how do I scale my practice online without burning out""how to charge more for my online program (and actually believe it's worth it)""online group program to grow beyond 1:1"…this is the episode that answers them.The three structural shifts that change everything:1. The session-by-session model has a hard ceiling. You cannot reach $10K months booking $80–$150 sessions — the hours simply don't exist in a week. The fix isn't more appointments; it's packaging your expertise into an online program so clients buy a result, not just your time.2. Pricing is a mindset before it's a number. Before you raise your rates, you have to genuinely believe your program is a no-brainer investment. That belief comes first — because it shows up in every single consult, whether you say it out loud or not.3. Marketing is what closes the gap. Knowing where to show up and what to say turns a stalled audience into a consistent pipeline of inquiries. Specific, problem-aware messaging beats generic tips every time — it's the difference between posting and actually getting found by the people ready to buy.You're one model away, not one more certification away.Get into the 100K Online Blueprint here: https://igniteurwellness.com/100k-online-practice-blueprint/Follow me on Instagram → igniteyourwellnessbusinessReady to work with me?

Connect with the Investor Mama Tribe Jessie Lang started investing in real estate by “house-hacking” over 10 years ago, and has since grown a substantial rental portfolio that she manages with the help of a small, remote team. In the last 36 months, she’s grown from 11 doors (bought the wrong way with 20% down), to 70 doors and counting. She's laser focused on the BRRRR method, which allows her to put her money to work over and over to create generational wealth. She partners with private lenders to buy real estate with none of her own money, all while providing them double digit returns on their investment! Jessie has created a free mini-course—how to buy 1-3 rentals per month on autopilot (even if you don’t own a property yet, don’t have 20% down, and think rates are too high). When she isn't managing rentals or coaching, she is traveling with her wife Laura, spoiling her 5 (yes 5!) pets, and getting her hands dirty in DIY house projects and gardening. Key Takeaways: Start with $3,000 and a spare bedroom. You don’t need a big down payment to begin. Jessie’s first property was an FHA loan with $3K down. If you already own a home, renting out a room covers your mortgage and plants the seed. Action: Look up FHA loan requirements in your area this week. Find one local real estate meetup and show up. Every contractor, lender, wholesaler, and boots-on-the-ground person Jessie relies on came from networking in person. You don’t need to know anything yet — just go. Action: Search “real estate meetup [your city]” or BiggerPockets forums to find one happening this month. Download a free property management app before you even have a tenant. TenantCloud is free and builds the habits and systems you’ll need from day one. Don’t wait until you’re overwhelmed. Action: Sign up for TenantCloud today so the infrastructure is ready when you need it. Run the BRRRR (buy, rehab, rent, refiance, repeat) numbers on one deal — even a fake one. Practice underwriting: find a distressed listing on Zillow, estimate rehab costs, and see if it hits the 75% LTV threshold after repair value. You learn by doing the math. Action: Pick one listing this week and walk through Jessie’s formula ($100K purchase + $40K rehab + $10K holding = $150K all-in, needs to appraise at $200K). Hire your “boots on the ground” before you make an offer. If you’re investing outside your market, line up a neutral third party first — someone from a local Facebook group or BiggerPockets subforum who will be your eyes and ears for $50–100 a trip. Action: Post in the BiggerPockets forum for your target market and ask if anyone does property walkthroughs for remote investors.

Jimmy Whelan talks about leaving WorldTour cycling, becoming a Salomon-sponsored professional runner, training at altitude, chasing a sub-60 half marathon, and building toward the marathon long term.

Now training at altitude in Andorra and Font-Romeu, Jimmy is focused on chasing a sub-60 half marathon and building toward the marathon long term, with the LA Olympics as a major target. Jimmy shares his early running background, including an 8:11 3K and a top-five finish at Zatopek U23, before an Achilles injury pushed him toward cycling and rapidly into the professional ranks. He discusses the crashes, pressure, and stress that contributed to him leaving cycling in 2024, briefly considering triathlon, and then committing fully to running after a 61:37 half marathon in Valencia. Matt and Jimmy also cover high-mileage training, double-threshold work, altitude response, marathon potential, shoe development with Salomon, nutrition and carb tolerance from cycling, bicarb issues, sauna and heat protocols, anti-doping differences between cycling and running, selective cross-training, minimal strength and plyometrics, and why Jimmy is based in Barcelona.

I went to Japan in April and bought 2-3K dollars worth of Kirby merchandise. I traveled to Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, and Sapporo. This is partially a slide show of where I went, while also telling you where you can go to get stuff. I went to Kirby Cafes, Train Pupupu, Pupupu Mart, and more.

If you've been wondering how photographers are booking $10K weddings without shooting 30 weekends a year, this episode is for you.I'm breaking down the exact framework I used to go from 30+ weddings at $3K to fewer weddings, higher income, and my weekends back, and what I teach inside The Wedding Atelier to help photographers do the same.We cover why you're not getting inquiries (it's a positioning problem, not a pricing one), how to attract premium couples through your portfolio, website copy, and Instagram, and the pricing psychology behind restructuring your packages so clients say yes to your highest option.If you're ready to raise your prices to $7K–$10K+ and build a six-figure business with less than 20 weddings a year, this one's for you.

I recap my experience travelling to and running the Palestine Marathon weekend in Bethlehem, including crossing through Jordan and the West Bank, what it was actually like on the ground in the region, and how different the experience felt compared to many online portrayals. I also announce the new Globe Runners Thailand experience in Phuket and answer listener questions on coaching, shoe tech, injury comeback plans, visas, and the future of running. Links My coaching: https://www.sweatelitecoaching.com/matt-fox/ My Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattinglisfox/ My Strava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/6248359 Join me in Phuket for a running experience of a lifetime: https://www.thegloberunners.com/phuket-running-experience I open this episode by announcing the first Globe Runners Thailand experience taking place in Phuket from September 4-7. The trip will include training sessions, seminars, exploring Thailand, group activities, and a chance to train with a like-minded running community in one of the best environments in the world for a running camp. From there, recording from Jerusalem, I recap the Palestine Marathon weekend in Bethlehem after travelling through Amman and crossing the Israeli border. I talk through the long screening process, what it was actually like travelling through the West Bank, and why the reality on the ground felt very different to what many people might expect from following international media coverage. I also recap the race weekend itself. I jogged the 10K which ended up being around 9.3K, Reem ran 1:38 to place second in the half marathon on a very hilly course, and my athlete Ahmed placed third in the marathon. I also reflect on emotional footage from a Gaza marathon and the broader atmosphere around the event weekend. Later in the episode, I answer a wide range of Instagram Q&A topics including my failed U.S. green card process, detention in Japan over cannabis, rehoming Turbo, thoughts on the future of the running industry, London Marathon potentially moving to two days, altitude training in Font-Romeu, doping speculation, shoe tech and fueling, my injury comeback plans, coaching philosophy, and why Luke left the podcast.

Peter and Eden kick off a chaotic week — Eden's dealing with the Shiny Hunters ransomware attack on Canvas (the university LMS that runs basically everything, currently being held hostage for the second time) while Peter is just weary from step counts. The bulk of the episode is a genre-spanning music deep dive: Eden assigns four critic-darling albums neither of them would normally reach for (Robyn, Ella Langley, Wendy Eisenberg, and Mandy Indiana), Peter assigns one desert-island pick Eden hasn't heard yet. Between the new releases, a Diablo 4 expansion, Cobalt lore, and the Dungeon Crawler Carl comic selling out on Free Comic Book Day, it's a very full episode.SHOW NOTESCanvas Ransomware Crisis — Eden, who works in university IT, breaks down the Shiny Hunters attack on Canvas, the dominant learning management system used by ~54% of schools. The attackers took the platform down twice, demanded ransom, and threatened to release data from 9,000+ schools by May 12th. Eden spent Free Comic Book Day week in Zoom calls, prepping faculty for a likely third outage.New Metal Releases — Peter covers recent drops: new Sevendust (pretty okay, Lajon Witherspoon sounds great), Draconian's Insomnolent Ruin (gothic death-doom, better than their 2020 album), and a Testament remaster of Practice What You Preach — which apparently had notoriously bad 80s mastering on every prior version.What Else Peter's Been Into — Currently watching The Good Place (season two, laughing out loud), reading the new MurderBot novella System Collapse (more existential ennui, building toward a Preservation vs. Barishastranza showdown), and very much hooked on Vampire Crawlers, a $10 roguelike deck-builder with a dungeon crawl structure that he calls at least as good as Slay the Spire.Free Comic Book Day at Eden's Shop — The comic shop where Eden works had its best day ever — beating last year's record by ~$3K. The Dungeon Crawler Carl issue zero sold out by 11:15 AM and was flipping on eBay for $30+. Eden's boss is now planning to order ten copies of the forthcoming OGN.Eden's Media Check-In — Went back to Wuthering Waves (best combat of any free-to-play open world; Cyberpunk Edgerunners crossover incoming), read They Were Eleven by Moto Hagio (70s shoujo sci-fi, recently translated, thoroughly recommended), and briefly installed/uninstalled Neverness to Everness after the devs were caught using AI-generated assets and their "replacement" assets were also AI-generated.The Music Listening Project — Robyn, Sexistential — Eden's clear favorite of the four assigned albums. Robyn's first album in eight years sounds like Body Talk Part 4, which is exactly what she apparently aimed for. Both hosts agree it goes down smooth and does exactly what dance-pop is supposed to do. Peter's pick of the bunch.Ella Langley, Dandelion — Peter's least favorite ("I fucking hated every note on this shitty ass shit album"), not softened much by the 19-song runtime. Eden also wanted to like it more than they did. Peter's wife, who has a master's in vocal performance, concurred on the voice. Both prefer Kacey Musgraves's Middle of Nowhere, which dropped right after Eden finalized the listening list.Wendy Eisenberg, self-titled — A folk/chamber-folk record Eden found genuinely enjoyable, especially in quieter guitar-forward moments. Peter couldn't get past what he describes as chronically unsupported vocals (no diaphragm engagement). Mid-episode, Eden Googles and discovers Wendy uses they/them pronouns — quick correction mid-stream.Mandy Indiana, URGH — Noise rock with French lyrics; alienating by design, and for once that assessment is meant charitably. Peter could see putting it on if he just wants sound, not music. Eden started strong but felt bludgeoned by the end. Album art apparently smears skulls and faces across the screen in real time — which tracks.Cobalt, Slow Forever (2016) — Peter's desert island pick, his most-listened album of the last two years. Eden had never heard it and came away genuinely impressed. Peter gives a brief history: Cobalt's Gin (2009) as foundational American black metal, the band's turmoil around the previous vocalist's behavior, Charlie Fell (of Lord Mantis) stepping in, Eric Wunder doing all instruments himself, and the resulting pivot from black metal to progressive sludge with blackened overtones. Peter closes with a passage from "King Rust." Eric Wunder passed away earlier this year — Slow Forever as a final statement.

This week, Jason is joined by Jon Bouffard — creator, entrepreneur, and one half of one of the most recognizable couples brands on the internet — for a conversation on what it really takes to build a business from nothing and scale it into a multi-six-figure operation.Jon shares the unconventional path that led him here — from making $15/hour across a series of jobs, including teaching, working at Wells Fargo under a fake name, and serving as a vocational counselor, to eventually pivoting into occupational therapy where he capped out financially and began searching for something more.Everything changed when he partnered with his now wife, Alex, stepping into the world of wedding videography. What started as a creative side hustle quickly grew into a full-time business, scaling from $3K to $10K per wedding — but also came with burnout, long hours, and limited upside.Jon breaks down the turning point — when brand deals began replacing wedding income, allowing them to shift fully into content creation. He explains how their business evolved into a six-figure-per-deal model, what brands are really paying for, and why consistency and relatability have been the foundation of their success.He also opens up about the realities behind the scenes — the pressure to constantly create, the mental toll of staying relevant, and the discipline required to keep showing up even when you don't feel like it.Beyond the business, Jon shares insight into how he and Alex divide responsibilities, manage finances, and maintain a strong partnership while building together — including why they prioritize simplicity, avoid unnecessary spending, and focus on long-term stability over short-term flash.The conversation also dives into bigger-picture topics — from the future of the creator economy to the challenges of transitioning into traditional media, and the importance of protecting your personal life in an increasingly public world.From $15/hour jobs to building a scalable digital business, Jon gives a raw and honest look at what it takes to bet on yourself, stay consistent, and turn creativity into a career.Jon reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can't afford to miss!Subscribe to the Trading Secrets podcast!Host: Jason Tartick Co-Host: David Arduin Audio: John Gurney Video: Marc Colcer Guest: Jon BouffardUpwork Scaling a business takes the right expertise at the right time.

Checking your Etsy stats feels productive. It's not…at least not the way most sellers are doing it.This episode is about one of the most common habits that keeps Etsy sellers busy without actually moving their shops forward: opening the dashboard multiple times a day, watching numbers, refreshing views, and making reactive decisions based on what they see in a single afternoon. If that sounds familiar, this one's for you. I'm covering what's actually happening when you're deep in your stats, what the difference between watching your shop and working on it really looks like, and what to do instead if you want consistent sales.What you'll learn:Why checking your stats constantly feels like strategy but usually isn'tThe cycle most sellers are stuck in and why it keeps them from making real progressWhat a real student experienced when she finally set a limit on her stats time (and what changed in her shop after)The sticky phrase that will change how you think about your Etsy time: "Watching your shop isn't the same as working on it"The one question to ask yourself next time you open your shop dashboardWhat sellers hitting $1K, $2K, and $3K months are doing differently with their dataHow to know when looking at your stats is productive vs. when it's just a habit keeping you busyResources:Free Live Masterclass: https://sarahjwaggoner.com/freeclass/Your Next Steps:Join the Etsy Visibility Accelerator: https://sarahjwaggoner.com/etsy-visibility-acceleratorWork with Sarah 1:1: https://sarahjwaggoner.com/coachingFollow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sarahjwaggoner/Join the Free Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theheartlandcreativeFollow on Threads: https://www.threads.com/@sarahjwaggoner
Most people think Cabo's beaches are only for looking, not for swimming. That idea has shaped the way many people see the destination for years, but it only tells part of the story. In this episode, Nick sits down with Yair, race director of the Los Cabos Cortes Open, to talk about the reality behind that perception and why open water swimming has been steadily growing in Los Cabos.Together, they explore how the Los Cabos Cortes Open began, how it has evolved into a stronger event with each edition, and why Palmilla Beach has become the ideal setting for a race built around experience, community, and destination appeal. Yair shares what makes the event special, from its 1K, 3K, 5K, and 7K distances to its goal of attracting both first-time swimmers and more experienced athletes from across Mexico and beyond.The conversation also goes beyond the event itself. Nick and Yair talk about the beaches in Los Cabos that people can actually swim, the local misconceptions around ocean conditions, the growth of swim culture in the region, and the bigger opportunity Los Cabos has as a destination for sports tourism. They also discuss Yair's own background in the sports world, his transition from triathlon into swimming, and the role events like this can play in building a healthier, more connected community.From Palmilla and Chileno to the broader future of open water in Baja California Sur, this episode offers a different way of thinking about Cabo. Not just as a place to visit, but as a place where sport, lifestyle, community, and destination identity are starting to connect in a much more meaningful way. If you think you already know Cabo, this conversation may change your mind.Know more about Los Cabos Cortés Open here
In this episode, Andrew Warner, founder of Mixergy, host of over 2,500 founder interviews, and creator of The Next New Thing, reveals why the most exciting business opportunity in AI right now isn't building another chatbot or SaaS tool. It's building for AI agents as customers. Andrew shares how one founder went from $3K to $70K/month by simply pivoting his social media tool to serve AI agents instead of humans, why Jason Fried at Basecamp is now adding agent-first features, and what this means for every entrepreneur and operator watching the AI wave. Andrew breaks down his own AI tech stack (Claude Code, VS Code, Atlas Browser, OpenClaw), why he keeps a separate laptop just for AI agent work, and the brutal honesty about how much time we're all spending "playing" with AI vs. actually building revenue-generating products. He and Liam go deep on the "SaaSpocalypse" debate, whether intelligence becoming a utility makes audience and distribution the only real moats, and why the agent-to-agent economy, where software sells to other software, might be the biggest shift since mobile. Key Topics Covered How Andrew built a $30M/year email newsletter business in his 20s and what he learned about monetization The origin story of Zapier: Andrew was their first paying customer before they even had a product Why AI's "shiny object syndrome" is the biggest trap for builders right now Andrew's daily AI tech stack: Claude Code, VS Code, Atlas Browser, Claude Desktop, and WhisperFlow How Postiz went from $3K to $70K/month by becoming the social media tool for AI agents The agent-to-agent economy: why your next best customer might not be human Is SaaS dead?

Matt Fox and Marty Bordignon talk through Marty's first marathon-specific block for the Gold Coast Marathon, his rough post-Osaka patch, and how things have started to turn around as training settles back near 100 km per week. They also discuss Marty's MTHFR-related folate/B-vitamin issue, tapering philosophy, group training in the heat, preferred YouTube running content, fueling economics, and Boston Marathon predictions.

Marty reflects on a difficult three-week stretch after Osaka where fatigue, low motivation, and even easy runs felt unusually hard, before things started to shift again as he returned to roughly 100 km per week and gained confidence from a session of 3K, 5 x 60 seconds, and 3K. The conversation also explores Marty's discovery that an MTHFR gene variant was affecting his ability to absorb folate and certain B vitamins properly, and how getting back on the right supplement made a major difference. Matt and Marty discuss early-morning group runs to manage the heat, training rhythm, pacing options, and realistic goal setting heading toward race day, with 2:40 framed as a stretch and 2:38 sitting more in the realm of possibility if training continues well. They also break down Steve Magness's recent tapering video and share their preference for shorter tapers that maintain intensity, before moving into a broader discussion on running YouTube, filming ideas, watch time, monetization, sponsor dynamics, Ben Felton's content, Jake Barraclough injury speculation, Cole Givens, Nick Bare's move away from data obsession, and the ever-growing cost of fueling - including DIY carb mix ideas versus gels.

In our latest Open Source Startup Podcast episode, co-hosts Robby and Tim talk with Pedram Amini, the creator of open source platform Maestro which allows users to run fleets of AI coding agents autonomously for long periods of time. Their project has 3K stars on GitHub. The episode explores how Maestro's multi-agent system overcame a key limitation in generative AI: context overload. After juggling many Claude sessions for different tasks, Pedram realized each problem needed its own isolated workflow. Maestro turns this into a system letting users run many agents and tabs in parallel, keeping tasks separate and avoiding context degradation during long or complex work.Maestro is designed for scale, enabling dozens or even hundreds of agents to handle complex projects simultaneously. It's flexible, model-agnostic, and especially useful for breaking big problems into independent units. The project has quickly grown into a community-driven effort, reflecting a broader shift: instead of buying a bunch of tools, developers can build highly customized AI systems themselves, pointing toward a future of large-scale agent orchestration.
Episode Summary Everyone talks about hitting 10,000 steps a day… But do you actually need it? Is it backed by science—or just a marketing number that stuck? And if it works… why are so few people actually doing it? In this episode, we break down the truth behind 10K steps—where it came from, what actually matters, and why it might be one of the most underrated habits in fitness. Because here's the reality: Most people aren't under-training… They're under-moving. What We Cover The Real Story Behind 10K Steps The 10,000-step goal didn't start as science—it started as marketing with a Japanese pedometer called "manpo-kei" (10,000-step meter). But here's the twist: Even though it started as marketing… it works. Modern research shows major health benefits in the 7,000–10,000 step range, especially compared to a sedentary lifestyle. It's not magic—it's a target that works. The Hype vs. The Truth There's a lot of noise around steps: The Hype: You must hit 10K or it doesn't count It's the best fat loss tool More steps = always better The Truth: 6–8K steps already delivers major benefits 10K is a strong target—not a requirement The real win is daily movement consistency 10K isn't the goal—it's the guardrail. Why Steps Actually Work Walking works because it's simple, sustainable, and powerful. Burns calories through daily movement (NEAT) Helps regulate blood sugar—especially after meals Supports the nervous system (low stress, high return) Aids in recovery, circulation, and joint health At SISU, we don't just train hard… We move often. Why Most People Don't Hit 10K This isn't a fitness problem—it's a lifestyle problem. Desk jobs Screen time and phone addiction Thinking workouts "check the box" No awareness or structure It's not hard physically—it's hard behaviorally. How to Actually Hit 10K Steps You don't need a 2-hour walk. Break it up across your day: Morning: 2–3K steps Midday: 3–4K steps Evening: 3–4K steps Simple ways to build it in: Walk after meals (10 minutes ≈ 1,000 steps) Take walking meetings Park farther away Walk while on calls Go for a walk with your spouse or family Steps are one of the easiest ways to connect as a couple. Walk It Out Challenge This is exactly why we created the Walk It Out Challenge. Simple goal Built-in accountability Community-driven Designed for real life Whether you're a beginner, a busy professional, or a couple looking to level up together—this is your entry point. Takeaway You don't need a more intense plan. You need more consistent movement. Action Step Start today: Track your steps Add a 10-minute walk after your next meal Invite a friend or partner to join you Simple habits. Daily reps.

Why your email nurture sequence might be working against you and the simple shift that turns a cold list of 7,000 into a warm pipeline of booked calls.

The three things your prospects need to believe before they'll ever say yes and how to incept those beliefs before the sales conversation even starts.

No sugarcoating it. • Stumbled into business coaching because other trainers wanted to know how I was living abroad while still selling fitness. • Founded Coaches Cartel coaching, software, and virtual teams for fitness pros. • Became a father of four while managing a traveling family of six. • Sold my multi-7-figure coaching business. • Started consulting 6, 7, and 8-figure coaches and CEOs charging up to $25K a month. • Founded The Rainmakers.

This is Part 2 of the Mastering Multiple Six-Figure Years series — and we're getting honest about why more people aren't saying yes to your offers even when they're solid.If your only entry point into your world is a $3K, $5K, or $10K+ investment, you're not wrong for that. But you are skipping a critical step in how people buy now.We're not in a “trust recession.” We're in a discernment era.Buyers are more selective, more aware, and more cautious about where they invest their time, money, and energy. Which means expecting someone to go from “just found you” to “take my credit card” is a stretch.In this episode, we're breaking down what it actually means to widen your entry points, not by throwing out random freebies or low-ticket offers, but by creating intentional pathways that build trust and move people toward your signature offer.Scaling to multiple 6-figures?

Tom explains why the performance was especially meaningful given the unusual lead-in - it was his fourth marathon in around two and a half years, his first back-to-back marathon build since the Marathon Project, and a winter training block completed almost entirely on the treadmill. Tom shares how that treadmill-heavy buildup created a lot of uncertainty around race-day pacing and fitness translation. Once the pacer stepped off early, he was left to run roughly 22 miles alone on a looped course with confusing lap splits, forcing him to rely heavily on feel and effort rather than clean external feedback. That ability to stay composed and trust the work became one of the defining parts of the race. The conversation then turns to Tom's progression from 2:15 to 2:12 to 2:09. Rather than simply piling on more mileage, he credits much of that jump to improved speed, better quality, and specific Canova-style sessions such as 12 x 1K plus 6 x 400, along with frequent strides and faster running around 5K to 3K pace. Matt and Tom discuss how those layers of speed have helped raise his ceiling while still supporting marathon performance. They also get into body weight, fuelling strategy, and how Tom thinks about food through a marathon build, as well as race shoes, including the Puma Fast-R 3. Tom speaks about coaching with Team Run Run, his philosophy around helping athletes improve, and the value of putting bold goals out publicly rather than hiding from them. Later in the episode, they touch on Connor Mantz dropping Boston, the pros and cons of pros racing too often, and Tom's own plans moving forward, which include returning to shorter races on the track and over 10K before deciding on a possible fall marathon.

Sensors and Pressure Transducers: Ranges, Power Requirements, and Troubleshooting TipsThe hosts discuss travel fatigue, long commutes, and airport TSA delays that led to canceling a flight and driving instead, then shift to field work issues during store startups and CO2 conversions, including controller communication problems caused by cabling, IT security port shutdowns from new MAC addresses, and router performance differences. The main technical focus is identifying and troubleshooting pressure transducers and temperature sensors: common signal ranges (1–6V, 0.5–4.5V, 0–5V, 0–10V, and 4–20 mA), matching transducer power requirements (5V, 12V, 24V/24–36V), and selecting correct pressure ranges for applications up to CO2 gas coolers. They cover sensor types (PT1000, 10K2 vs 10K3, 2.2K, 3K, 86.3K), wiring/offset issues with PT1000 over distance, and using linear interpolation apps to convert measured voltage to expected pressure or controller readings. They briefly mention megger use and plan to discuss CO2 leak detection and drain-related concerns next week.

He also breaks down how to structure content, budget effectively, and build a sustainable LinkedIn strategy—even with limited time. — 3 Steps to Leads on LinkedIn with Anthony Blatner Good day, dear listeners. Steve Preda here with the Management Blueprint Podcast, and my guest today is Anthony Blatner, the Founder and CMO of the Speedwork, LinkedIn Ad Agency, helping great companies get great customers with LinkedIn ads. Anthony, welcome to the show. Hey, Steve, excited to be here and to talk to you today. It’s great to have you here. So before we dive into all things LinkedIn, I’d like to ask my favorite question on this podcast, which is, what is your personal ‘Why’, and how are you manifesting it in your business? Yeah, I’ve always been just really into business. I grew up being around a lot of business owners. My dad ran his own business, and he was in the finance world, so he worked with a lot of other business owners. So since I was a kid, I've always been around a lot of business owners, and I've always just really enjoyed business, and then I just naturally gravitated to the marketing world there because I just really enjoyed the side of the business world.Share on X So my ‘Why’ has always been around helping and growing businesses. I come from the technology space doing software development, and now I’m in the marketing space and it’s just something I’ve always loved doing and it’s a very exciting space and it’s always changing very fast. So that’s been my personal ‘Why’, and just manifesting it every day in what we do in our work on LinkedIn. So it’s just always fun to be working with growing businesses. Yeah, this LinkedIn is a fascinating platform. I’ve been on it, I don’t know, probably over 20 years now. Is this possible? Yeah. Something like that. And there were other platforms at the time like Plaxo—I think that was one competitor platform—and I was on multiple platforms. Then I quit Plaxo, and I'm glad that I actually built on the right platform. I’ve also witnessed how people are getting more and more active on LinkedIn. LinkedIn is becoming kind of non-negotiable for B2B businesses. So tell me how you see this evolution and how LinkedIn has changed over the past 10 years. Yeah, it definitely has changed a lot. Back in the day, when we were first getting started, a lot of people would ask me, “Does anybody even use LinkedIn?” Ten years ago, it wasn't as widely used, especially on the social side. It’s always been like the digital resume. The big change happened with Covid, when everyone was had to get online more. That’s when the big shift happened. Everyone got used to using it a lot more. And then since then, people are used to using it, and it has definitely evolved into being kind of the number one social platform for professionals. So anything business-wise, business content, people are going to go on LinkedIn to share that and talk about that. So it was kind of cemented in this place there. Then they just continued rolling out additional features and things that are useful for both users on reading, connecting with your colleagues, but then also on the marketing side of things. So the advertising platform has kind of come a long way. There’s a lot of new features, a lot of new capabilities there. So it’s been very interesting to watch how it’s evolved. And I think also at the same time we kind of see how other platforms have evolved differently. I feel like these days, if I ever go on Facebook, it’s just a lot of like AI-generated garbage content. So during the workday or during the work week, I want to be reading business stuff. I want to be learning things and I’m going to apply to my job. That’s why I go on LinkedIn to read that type of content. And I know that’s why a lot of other professionals do it. So it’s kind of just grown into its place there in the ecosystem. So people are used to using it a lot more. And there’s been a lot of new features that have come out to help marketers use it as a marketing channel. I’m glad you brought up this AI evolution, because I see that more and more people are writing their posts with AI. There can be benefits to that, because some people don't write as well as an AI copywriter does—most of us, perhaps. On the other hand, the posts start to look a little bit more alike. So I wonder, what is your perception of this? Do you think people are posting more, and if they post more, do people read less? How is this evolving? Yes, it’s a continually evolving space. I don’t think we know a hundred percent what the outcome is right now, but I think what I see across all the people that we work with—and just using the platform—there's a lot more content these days with AI. People can use AI to generate content, so there's a lot more content out there. But volume does not always mean quality. There's more content, but not necessarily the best content. The best stuff that we see performing well in our ad campaigns—and also organically on LinkedIn—usually has a human angle to it, where maybe you wrote it yourself. You can use AI to generate content—AI is great for that, and it's great for writing—but you probably want to take what it gives you and then add your own edits and personality. That's a big piece. The more personality you have in your content, the more people are going to engage with it. So across the board, we see that human content still wins. AI is great for generating the bulk of the content, but then you want to put in your own voice, add some personality to it, and then that's going to help it perform kind of even better…Share on X Well, that takes me to the next question, which is about connection requests and people reaching out. So how is this evolving, and how do you see people reacting to connection requests? I remember 20 years ago, it was a big deal if you got a connection request, and we basically reached out to all the people we knew and connected with everyone we could. Now, there are different schools of thought. Some say that you should not connect with anyone you don't want to do business with because it dilutes the exposure of your content, and you're not going to go viral. You're also not going to be able to follow the few people you can actually do business with. Other people say the more, the merrier. So what's your view on this topic? I think the marketers went very heavily into connection requests—especially during the Covid period—and maybe burned it out. As users, we've all been burned out by the connection requests and the messages we've been receiving. So as a platform, and in terms of how people use it, that tactic has definitely simmered down a lot. It's still a usable, viable tactic—prospecting is never going to go away. Whether it's email, cold calling, or LinkedIn, delivering the right message to the right person at the right time will always matter. But it is changing and evolving. Users are burned out by the messages, so they're much more skeptical now. People accept far fewer connection requests because they can usually see the intent coming from a mile away. I still recommend connecting with people you do know—your colleagues and your clients—and also connecting with your prospects. But be aware that everyone else is cautious when they receive a connection request. They often assume you're going to try to sell to them. So start with the people that you do know that you are working with. Prospecting will probably never go away, but definitely the platform as a whole—and what works on LinkedIn—has definitely shifted. Connection requests don't work as well as they used to. People have shifted more to the content side of things on LinkedIn, and I think it does provide a better user experience to the end user and also for the marketer too. At the end of the day, it's about the end user and the experience you're…Share on X I'm a LinkedIn user, you're a LinkedIn user, so we want to have a good experience. We don't want to just receive spam from everybody, or else we're not going to use it. But the platform evolves, so it's a lot more about the content you're posting on LinkedIn. Other people are going to discover that content, and then maybe they choose to follow you at that point. Maybe they choose to send you a connection request. But it doesn't have to be just that. When LinkedIn sees people starting to engage with your content, they're going to show more of your content. So it's kind of becoming a discovery platform, and there is a network effect to it. So there's definitely a shift toward the content you're posting. It's much more about thought leadership. I know the LinkedIn product team is trying to be very intentional about the content they surface to users. They want it to be high-quality, thought leadership content. As a platform, they know they've had a spam problem—from connection requests to the comments people leave. A lot of those comments are AI-generated. LinkedIn has taken a stand that they don't want AI-generated comments, and they're actively scanning to remove them. LinkedIn’s trying to reduce the AI spam, and they are trying to focus on and surface the high-quality thought leadership type of content. So that’s all on the content side of things. And then the advertising platform has also evolved a lot too. As users and marketers shift more toward the feed and the content being created, the marketing side of LinkedIn follows that shift. Now, marketing on LinkedIn is largely about running ads in the newsfeed. On LinkedIn, you can run ad campaigns just like Facebook ad campaigns. For anybody who’s used Facebook, you’ve seen all the different ads that are on Facebook. LinkedIn has their own same ad offerings, and it’s very similar to those. So you can build your campaigns to put ads in the newsfeed. But the big change in the last year or two is that, in the past, you could only run company page ads. So all of your ads had to be from a company page. Within the last couple years, you can now do what’s called “thought leader ads,” which is just simply boosting posts from a person. So it sounds fancy when you say thought leader ads, but it’s just boosting posts from a person. It’s a better experience all the way around because you want to be getting your content out there, so you want to be boosting your posts and getting your message out there. You want people to be getting to know you, and they also just perform a lot better because people on LinkedIn will always engage with other people more than with companies, because that’s why people are on LinkedIn to learn from other people and hear what they have to say. So those thought leader ads just perform a lot better, the better user experience all the way around. That’s where the platform has really evolved and shifted to. No more connection requests or very few of those. And now it’s all about the content people are creating, posting, and then boosting, creating a full-funnel approach that way. Okay, that’s fascinating. So your business is LinkedIn ads and helping companies grow on LinkedIn, and this podcast is about frameworks. Yeah. I'm wondering if there's a framework for how people should think about LinkedIn and how to use it—especially for a small business, maybe they have 10 to 50 employees, and they want to grow their business. They’re in the B2B space, they want to use LinkedIn. They're aware that LinkedIn advertising can be pretty expensive, so they'll likely use a combination of approaches. What's a good frame of mind for that? There's the company page, there's the personal profile—so is there a simple framework for thinking about how to use LinkedIn as an advertising tool and how to promote their small to medium-sized business there? Yes, there is. I’m going to give you the very simple yet effective thought leader ad funnel—something anyone can go and use. It’s the simplest and also the most effective thing you can do on LinkedIn. It starts with you, and I'll explain the different stages, as well as how to get started. So the first step is getting your own posts out there. Not everybody’s posting on LinkedIn. Not everybody feels comfortable posting on LinkedIn, and sometimes it’s a hard process to go through to getting people to post. And whether that’s you or your CEO, or somebody else at your company, another leader, the first step is to get into the routine of posting regularly. Again, it could be a big hurdle for some people, but you just have to get it started. Once you start to find your voice on LinkedIn, then we’re going to start thinking about three different buckets of content that you’re going to be creating. The first bucket of content is what we call awareness content. It gets people interested in what you have to talk about. There's a lot that can work well here, but across the board, we see that case studies perform very well. By case studies, I mean content like: “Here's how we achieved X, Y, Z result, here's what you can learn from it, and here's how you can do it.” Not the kind of case studies that say, “We're so awesome, we did this, and we're great,” but more educational, tips-and-tricks-style case studies. So posting those types of posts on LinkedIn. That’s why everyone else is on LinkedIn—to read those things and learn those things that they can take back to their job and to their company to improve what they’re doing. So if you’re the one creating that type of content that other people want to be reading, that’s the perfect start. And then when you’re talking about a result that you helped this certain industry or a person get somebody else in that industry who wants that result is going to read your post and your content. So that’s why we start with that type of content. That's what we call the top of the funnel—it's meant to get people interested in who you are and what you’re talking about. Then the next step of the funnel, what we call the middle of the funnel. We want people to opt in for something. Posting on LinkedIn is great, but it's really just one step in the process.Share on X Most businesses want to get people to your website, want to get somebody on a list so that they can then communicate with them more afterwards. Many businesses have different resources, downloadables, or things you might offer to those people. It can be a simple newsletter, but even better than that is if it’s a webinar type of thing that somebody might register for, maybe you have a series of webinars. It might be a guide or report, or it could be something even more than that. It could be a free trial or something like that. So the second step in the funnel is: what can you give to your audience, to your market, that provides more value, but also gets them involved and get them on your list as an indication of interest. So that’s the middle of the funnel. You can post about what you're offering, explain what you're sharing, and then you can link back to your website or where they can go to get that. And it’s okay to put the link in the post at this point because we’re going to be boosting it. We know that ad that post is going to be getting delivered to your audience. So that’s middle of the funnel. Then finally, you have the bottom of the funnel. And this is where your main offer is. At this point, it might be something like “get a free consultation” or “book a demo”—whatever it is that you're offering. At this point, you can set up your retargeting. So if somebody read your first post and then they clicked on your second post, then you’re going to retarget them with your third post. By the time they see that third post, they've already seen you a couple of times on LinkedIn. They're more familiar with you, and they're more likely to take you up on whatever offer you're presenting. This is where offers like a free demo or free consultation tend to perform well. You can link directly to something like Calendly, or a page on your website where they can request it, and then you're driving people to take that next step. I’m sure everyone here is familiar with marketing funnels. This is the simplest thought leader ad funnel that you can build, taking advantage of the thought leader ad format—which is boosting your posts, not running just a company page ad, but boosting your posts. Those will perform much better than company page ads. They’re also much cheaper to run because they perform so much better. So if you’re just getting started, this is the most cost-efficient place to start. That’s the framework right there is the thought leader ad funnel. Top of funnel: case study content. Middle of funnel: guide or opt-in. Bottom of funnel: your offer. And then once somebody engages with your first one, you want to set it up so they get retargeted with your second post. And then once they click on the second post, or once they got opt in and get on your list, then retarget them with a third post. And then you build yourself a little funnel and then boom, you could be reaching new people and then driving them through to eventually schedule a call with you. Yeah. That’s fascinating. So this is basically three levels that you can create posts around and to drive traffic. Maybe I'm starting with the third one—the bottom of the funnel. So after you get the opt-in from your prospect, or from people who are interested, you can retarget them with boosted posts. Yep. And I assume you can also send them emails and retarget them outside of LinkedIn as well? Right. Once you get their email, then feel free to use email as another channel. People do only check LinkedIn maybe a couple times a week on average. So if they do opt in to your list, definitely use email. But getting people from that second to third stage can take a little while. It often takes a few more impressions—people need to see more of what you have to offer or what you’re talking about before they’re ready to take that next step. So use both channels. Love it. So what about company page? Is it not worth building anymore or there’s also a place for company channels? Yeah, don't ignore your company page. You don't want it to ever seem inactive. People are going to visit your company page. For anyone in business, you probably already have people visiting your website, and there are people actively doing research to learn more about you. Company pages rank very high on Google and elsewhere. So if someone searches for your business, the first result will likely be your main website, and the second result will often be your company page. That means a lot of people will end up visiting it. You don't want it to look inactive. Even posting once a month is enough—you just want to show that there's some level of activity there. And then, the bigger you are as a company, the more important your company page becomes. For very small companies or solopreneurs, that’s where the thought leader ads are kind of the main thing you’re going to be doing. The bigger and bigger you go. We work with a lot of mid-market and enterprise companies as well, and for them it is more company page, overall it’s like a mix. We still use thought leader ads for big companies, but it’s a lot more company page ads will do for the big companies. So the best way to structure that funnel is still leading with your people—those boosted posts—because they perform so much better. It's also a great way for your audience to get to know you.Share on X And then once they know your people, then you can start to retarget them with the company page ads. At that point, they've already seen your people and are getting to know your brand. That’s when retargeting them with the actual brand ads, the company page ads, are going to perform much better. The bigger the company, the more the company page ads are going to use, and that’s how you’ll typically combine them. I love it. It's fascinating. So what's the right kind of cadence? Because I see some people are on LinkedIn all the time—and I've tried it as well—it can take up a lot of time. You still need to do other types of prospecting too. So what do you recommend as a good cadence for someone who's maybe a small business CEO? They don't have a lot of time—they have to make calls, write emails—but they also want to be present on LinkedIn. What's a sustainable pace? Yeah, from what I see perform best—and also what's realistic to maintain—is about posting twice a week on LinkedIn. That at least gets a decent amount of content out there without being too much. And then from there, taking those posts and boosting them into the funnel. Once you set up the funnel, it’s very quick to go boost your posts and add them into it. So really it’s about creating those twice-a-week posts and then setting up your funnel so that those posts get added to it. I do recommend using AI to take a lot of the heavy lifting off and make things easier. But of course, look at what it’s outputting, edit it so it’s in your voice, add some personality to it. It just makes it perform a lot better. It makes it more enjoyable for other people to read it. And then if you really don’t have the time, go hire somebody or go find a freelancer, or that’s when people come talk to us, is when you just need help from somebody to go do it. So start with twice a week and go from there. There's not really a strict upper limit—you don't start to max out until you're posting multiple times a day. I don’t know if anyone listening to this is going to get there, but you can post twice, three times a day, and you’re really not hurting yourself. So at least twice a week. Start with that. Yeah. So when you say inject personality, what does that mean? Is it about sharing personal information? Is it about having your own voice? What does that even mean? Yeah, it means a lot of things. AI can be very flat and boring, and you can read something and very often tell this is probably generated with AI. Personality is—it's hard to say exactly what it is—but it's like spicing it up. It's like breaking perfect grammar. It's using your own unique style, like the way you might start your post or the way you might sign off at the end. Because if someone’s just scrolling through the newsfeed and they’re just seeing a bunch of posts that look the same, that's noise. It all blends in, and it's not going to work well. But the posts that really stand out are the ones that have a little bit of personality. It depends on your business and your vertical—maybe you add some emojis, maybe you add some questions—but it's about finding a way to break out in the newsfeed. So there’s lots of stuff you can do. Maybe add one or two emojis, maybe add a simple question, but it's also about adding more energy to your post. It's not just writing flat business content—it's finding ways to add more emotion and energy. It's hard to define exactly what personality is, but when you scroll your feed and you see it, you'll know it. Yeah. I did notice that people resonate with stuff that people create. Earlier, about two years ago, we created a video that we thought was very cool, but we used AI, and almost nobody looked at it. But if I put in some emotional energy when creating the post, adding in my own ideas—and even if I write it myself—it works much better. I find the AI stuff, even if it's structured—maybe I don't have one-sentence paragraphs and things like that—so it can work better. And it's good to have a mixture of different types of content, because yes, text-only is a good format, but maybe you use certain images. Maybe you went to a conference recently, or maybe you're with your colleagues—you can use images like that. That adds a bit of personality. Videos can also be effective, especially selfie-style videos where you're talking about your subject or your expertise. Those are good, because AI can't yet generate the perfect video of you talking—it's getting much better and getting close—but people can still tell when a video is AI-generated. So leverage those formats as a way to stand out in the feed. Video is a very good format because people get to see you and hear from you. They feel like they get to know you a lot faster when they watch a video. Most of the time in business and sales, you don't get to meet someone until you're at an event or on a sales call. So use the LinkedIn feed as a way to accelerate that. Let people get to know you by letting them see you and hear you, and they'll…Share on X Yeah, I love it. Okay, so I think it's a great picture, and thanks for sharing it. So creating awareness is kind of top of funnel—case studies, what works, tips and tricks. Then you share a lead magnet-type thing, build your list, invite them to download something, come to a webinar, do a free trial, and then you have that list. And then you can retarget them with your bottom of the funnel, which could be more of the same, I guess. It could be multiple channels. So that's really cool. Now, if someone wants to do this, what kind of budget should they be thinking about? Because boosting posts can be expensive, but if it's a good post and you get people to download stuff, maybe it's a good ROI. So what kind of budget would make a difference if I were to post twice? Let's say I'm a CEO of a small-to-medium business. I post twice a week, I develop a couple of lead magnets, I do some retargeting, boosting posts—what kind of budget makes a meaningful difference for me? Yeah, so the minimum LinkedIn lets you spend on a single campaign per day is 10 bucks a day. so the very minimum is $10 a day to get started, and then you can kind of play around with it from there. To build the system that I mentioned, that would be three different campaigns. So that'd be about $900 to $1,000 a month. So that's kind of the minimum to get started there. We see companies start to have more predictable and repeatable results once you get to at least $3K a month in total spend. You're probably going to start with more of that in the top and middle of the funnel, and then those audiences get smaller as you move down toward the bottom. About $3K a month is where you start to see more predictable, reliable results. But you can get started with as little as $10 a day. And then if you're a bigger mid-market or enterprise company, you might be spending tens or hundreds of thousands a month on ads. You can scale it as far as you want, but to get started, at least $10 a day. Yeah, that makes sense. If you do $1,000 a month, then get to $3,000, you can actually use it as a proper, predictable channel. So when you say predictable, what kind of results can people expect? Is it a certain number of downloads? I mean, obviously it depends on the content and the quality of the thought leadership—I get it—but what is the typical range that you see? Yeah. For some averages—if you build that funnel like I mentioned—what we typically see is you might be driving downloads or opt-ins for your newsletter or webinar at anywhere between $50 to $150 per opt-in. It kind of depends on what it is. Newsletters are easier to drive opt-ins for, while webinars are a bit harder because someone knows they need to set aside time in their schedule. That said, there are some businesses we're working with that are getting about $7 to $8 per opt-in. And again, you want to use LinkedIn when you're targeting a professional audience that carries more value for your business. So $7 to $8 is a really good cost per opt-in. For example, in that case, we're targeting marketing directors, VPs of marketing, CMOs at mid-market companies. Then for call bookings, those can range anywhere between $100 to $500 per booking. In many cases, we're driving people directly to a Calendly link so they can schedule a call right there. So yeah, you might see somewhere between $100 to $500 per call booking. That all very much depends on your audience and your offer, but those are some typical ranges we see. So you're a business owner as well, and you teach people how to do this, and you help people do this. Are you using LinkedIn for growing your business? Is this effective for your type of business—LinkedIn consulting? Yeah, LinkedIn is our number one channel. That's where most people find out about us. It makes sense for what we do—we're doing LinkedIn marketing, so people are going to discover us on LinkedIn. I'd say probably the number two channel is doing podcasts, speaking at events, and webinars. That's probably the next biggest driver. But LinkedIn is definitely number one. I guess that's advertising. So other than advertising and promoting yourself, what drives growth in your business? What drives growth in our business is using LinkedIn marketing. What makes us different from other people is we've built tooling on top of the LinkedIn Ads API, so we can get more data from the API than you can inside of LinkedIn Campaign Manager. That allows us to do advanced optimizations and see more than you can just inside Campaign Manager. We're able to pull more data from the API and do deeper analysis on things you can't normally see. So we can get really deep into the demographics—like what sizes of companies are performing best, what industries are performing best, what job titles are performing best. And that's where you start to make more advanced optimizations, like, “Oh, I see this job title is working well, or this one's not,” or “This industry is performing very well, and this other one is not.” Then you make those adjustments to your campaigns based on that data. So those are some things that make us different. And then after that, it’s just our experience. We’ve been doing it for 10 years. I created a course on LinkedIn Learning about LinkedIn advertising, so if you go to learn about LinkedIn ads, you might end up taking my course there. And it's really just the depth of experience—we've seen every type of funnel, worked with every type of company. That's fascinating. Well, Anthony, if someone would like to learn more—okay, they can go to LinkedIn Learning, as you just shared—but how can they connect with you, and how can they get the most up-to-date stuff from you? Yes. Well, I'm on LinkedIn. I share a lot of content there, so you can look me up on LinkedIn. Otherwise, our website is SpeedworkSocial.com. If you'd like to get our help, you can go there. We also have our own podcast—it's called LinkedIn Ads Radio—where we have lots of episodes going through different topics. We do interviews with LinkedIn and other leading marketers, so there's some really good content there. And then also on YouTube—all of those episodes exist there as well. Fantastic. Well, if you own a small business, or you run one—a small to medium-sized business or even an enterprise—and you want to grow your B2B audience, then just follow Anthony's recipe: the three levels. The top of the funnel—creating awareness with case studies—then developing your lead magnets, and then retargeting, email marketing to them, boosting your posts. Anthony, thanks for clarifying this for me. I've been on LinkedIn for 20 years, but I didn’t have this picture in my mind. And for those of you listening, if you enjoy this content, stay tuned, because we have similar episodes every week from thought leaders and business owners who share their tips and tricks. I guess this is top of funnel, right? Yes. So, Anthony, thanks for coming, and thanks for listening. Important Links: Anthony's LinkedIn Anthony's website

Send us Fan MailYou can feel the moment a runner starts to outgrow the track and get pulled back toward the mountains. That's where we meet Paul Knight, newly selected for the 2026 Trail Team Elite and fresh off D2 Indoor Nationals, where a strength-focused block for the 10K unexpectedly sharpened his 3K and 5K speed too. We dig into what that kind of fitness means when you're eyeing trail racing and skyrunning, where the pace changes constantly and the terrain demands more than clean splits.Paul grew up in Durango, Colorado, with the San Juan Mountains as his backyard and Hardrock 100 as part of the local summer rhythm. He explains how early trail days, big climbs, and fast descents built both confidence and an aerobic base, and why one of his most “committed” seasons on paper felt flat when he stopped trail running. The through line is motivation: when training is enjoyable, consistency follows, and consistency is the real superpower for endurance athletes.We also get practical about the muddy middle between NCAA running and the pro trail scene. Paul shares why Trail Team Elite felt like the right bridge, how mentorship and community shape opportunities, and how he's thinking about race choices like Broken Arrow now while keeping an eye on bigger dreams like Hardrock and UTMB. On top of it all, he's pursuing a master's in bioengineering at Colorado School of Mines and trying to picture a life that blends biotech work with racing.If you're into trail running, mountain running, skyracing, or the transition from collegiate running to trails, you'll leave with a clearer map and a bigger sense of what's possible.

Chris Chavez and Kyle Merber unpack all of the action from this weekend.We're talking about a nineteen-year-old freshman from BYU who just walked into the NCAA Indoor Championships and dismantled the field in not one but two distance events. A triple crown is complete for Habtom Samuel. A DQ controversy that had coaches filing protests and athletes biting their tongues. Sprint performances so fast they're rewriting the record books — again.

I've been told to charge less so more people say yes. I've been told to just serve and the money will come. And for a while, I listened. Until I helped a client generate $80K and only got paid $3K for it. That experience changed everything for me. In this episode, I'm breaking down the real reason business coaches struggle to charge $10K for their services and it's not what most people think. I'm sharing the story of how I let someone anchor me to a low price, the mindset shift that had to happen, and the 5 things I believe every coach needs to do to sign their first $10K client. If you're a business coach who knows your service delivers results, but your pricing doesn't reflect that yet, this one's for you.---- Want to build a podcast that attracts high-ticket clients and grows your coaching business?

What shifts when you stop trying to help everyone and finally build your business around the women you are truly meant to serve? In this episode, I sit down with Sophie Forbes-Johnson, clinical nutritionist and women's hormone specialist, to talk about niching into perimenopause, raising her prices, and building a premium one-on-one offer that actually delivers life-changing results. Sophie shares how her own journey with endometriosis, surgery, and even chemical menopause shaped her passion for women's health and how getting clear on her messaging helped her go from spinning her wheels to selling eight high-ticket packages in just a few months. We unpack the realities of perimenopause, including the symptoms women are told are "normal," why personalized care matters more than ever, and how shifting from scattered offers to one signature six-month program completely changed her business. We also talk about comparison, pricing confidence, and the mindset shift that helped her step into her role as part of the solution in women's healthcare. Tune in to hear: How Sophie transitioned from a 20-year media career into clinical nutrition What her experience with endometriosis and chemical menopause taught her about women's hormones The biggest gaps in perimenopause care and why personalized testing and support matter The symptoms women do not realize are hormone related Why she eliminated scattered offers and committed to one six-month signature program The pricing shift that moved her from 3K to 4.5K packages How she sold eight high-ticket clients by refining her messaging, not posting more The content strategy that actually converted, focused on pain points and real conversations The business boundary that changed everything, no more comparison, only collaboration Connect with Sophie: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sophieforbesjohnson/ Website: https://www.sophisticatednutrition.com/ Instagram: @dietitiandeanna and @online.entrepreneur.academy Want my help and strategies to have $30, $50 or $100K launches of your online program?

I'm excited to share this conversation with Drew Hunter. I've wanted to have Drew on the show for a long time, and this episode did not disappoint. Drew runs professionally for ASICS and lives in Boulder, Colorado, but his path in the sport has been anything but typical. He went pro straight out of high school, turning down a full scholarship to Oregon, and has now spent nearly a decade navigating the ups and downs of professional running before making a sponsor change to ASICS last year. In this conversation, we talk about what it was really like going pro so young, how different that decision might look today with NIL, and how his perspective has shifted ten years into his career. Drew opens up about setting goals based on what genuinely excites him, why road racing has become such a big focus, and how he's thinking about longevity in the sport as both an athlete and a dad. We also talk about family life, faith, and the importance of community, especially as he and his wife prepare to welcome their third child. What I appreciated most about this episode is how grounded Drew is in who he is now. He reflects honestly on early loneliness, big expectations, and how his definition of success has changed over time. This conversation goes well beyond race results and gets into what it looks like to build a meaningful life alongside big athletic goals. I really enjoyed this one, and I hope you do too.

“Last year, I came into the indoor season with the sole goal of breaking 3:50 in the mile… That was the big goal to tick off. I thought I'd maybe have a shot at running 3:48-high or 3:49-low to mid, so to run 3:47 actually surprised me quite a lot. This year, I feel like that's almost the expectation now. The standard has definitely been raised and the bar's been raised.”My guest for today's episode is Cameron Myers. Over the last three years, the world has gotten to know what Australia has known for a while – that something special has been coming. At just 19 years old, Cam ran 7:27 for 3000m to win the New Balance Indoor Grand Prix, delivering the fastest 3K ever run by an Australian that's either indoors or outdoors. In the process, he broke national records held by Ky Robinson and Stewy McSweyn. He closed in 55.98 seconds over the last 400m and surged away from a world-class field with the kind of composure that you rarely see from a teenager. To put that performance into perspective, only three men in history have ever broken 7:28 before turning 20 years old. That's Eliud Kipchoge, Jacob Kiplimo, and Jakob Ingebrigtssen. That's the company that Cam Myers now keeps.He talks about that stat in our chat, but what makes Cam so compelling isn't just the time; it's the way that he talks about the sport. He's thoughtful, honest, and remarkably grounded for someone who's already climbing so high in the global ranks. In our conversation, he's open about the challenges that he's faced, including a recent medical setback that forced him to withdraw from the World Cross Country Championships. We also talk about his breakout race in Boston, why stacking training upon training has become his guiding principle, how he's learning to race to win instead of just hanging on. Plus, he'll be one of the stars of the Wanamaker Mile at the Millrose Games this weekend after taking third place last year in a U20 mile world record of 3:47.We're speaking with Cam as part of his announcement that he has joined the Coros roster of professional athletes, which includes the likes of Jakob Ingebrigtsen, Jess Hull, and Alex Yee. He shares a bit of his data-driven approach, but you can learn more if you read their blog post on him here.Cam is already rewriting record books and he's doing it with a long view of where his journey can go since he'll be one of the stars for Australia when they host the 2032 Olympic Games.____________Mentioned in this episode:COROS Blog Post - Cam Myers' Training: A Deep Dive____________Host: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez on InstagramGuest: Cam Myers | @camer0nmyers on InstagramProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | @jasminefehr on Instagram____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Olipop is a better-for-you soda that puts 6-9g of fiber in every single can.
