Then, Jack offers his opinion on the situation.Transcript:00:00:00JackHey, A to Z Listeners this is the English podcast listeners. It's Jack here and we just want to announce that we are now on WeChat. Our WeChat ID is A-Z English podcast that is A-Z English podcast, one word all lowercase.00:00:17JackAnd if you.00:00:18JackJoin the group. You will be able to talk with me. You'll be able to.00:00:22JackTalk with social.00:00:23JackAnd we can answer your questions. We can read your comments on the podcast. So we'd love for you to join us and be active in our we chat group. Our WeChat ID is A-Z English podcast. Thanks. See you on the app.00:00:50JackWelcome to the A-Z English podcast. My name is Jack and I'm here with my co-host social. And today we have a topic talk, I believe, and this is the tuna fish sandwich debate and social. I have no idea what this means. Please enlighten me.00:01:08XochitlJack, I came across this and it it's kind of popular amongst American medicines in the in the group that I found. So a girl was commenting about how.00:01:21XochitlShe gave her.00:01:23XochitlMoney to go buy and cheese sandwich with all the fixings, which for others who don't know means, you know, lettuce, tomato, mayonnaise, whatever. And she very specifically said she wanted that ham and cheese sandwich. So he went to subway, she gave him money for both of their sandwich.00:01:37발표자 3Mm-hmm.00:01:44XochitlAnd I believe she wasn't feeling well or or something. So anyway, he went alone. So he went and bought a sandwich and he bought himself something different. And then he bought her a tuna fish salad sandwich, which he also likes. But he knows she doesn't like tuna.00:02:05XochitlAnd she doesn't really eat tuna, but he likes tuna, and he brought her the sandwich and told her that he brought her the tuna fish sandwich because he just wanted her to try his favorite sandwich, even though he got himself something different as well. So the commenters were divided on whether she should be grateful.00:02:25XochitlAnd she was actually saying she was grateful anyway, but that it kind of annoyed her. But she ended up feeling grateful that he went and got sandwiches, or if she should be upset.00:02:36XochitlThat he got her something she didn't ask for with her money, that he liked, that he knew that she wouldn't really like. So what do you think, Jack?00:02:45JackYeah, this one is. This is very uhm, here's an expression SUS like suspect, you know? Yeah, this is suck.00:02:53XochitlBut yes, that's like me. So it's like weird or kind of suspicious. That's what it stands for. Suspicious.00:02:56JackYeah.00:03:00JackSuspicious. Exactly.00:03:03JackThis reminds me of an episode of The Simpsons where Homer.00:03:09JackBuys Marge a bowling ball for her birthday that is exactly like sized for his hand and his fingers. So basically he buys her a present that she will never use and doesn't wants and that.00:03:29JackHe wants and that he will use.00:03:31JackAnd she is supposed to be grateful for that. And and this is like, this is just pure manipulation, you know, like, this is just this guy wants to eat all of the sandwiches and he's got his sandwich that he bought for himself.00:03:43XochitlRight.00:03:53JackAnd then he knows that she's not going to eat the tuna sandwich because she doesn't like tuna.00:03:59JackAnd he's trying to frame it as like I'm it's like.00:04:04JackIt's it's like the it's, it's just it's like.00:04:06JackKind of like a.00:04:07JackGaslighting, almost like like I'm I'm giving you the exact opposite of what you want and and make and and you're and forcing you to say thank you for.00:04:09XochitlYeah.00:04:18JackFor me doing it's, it's just like it's, it's awful. I mean it's it's in the grand scheme of things. It's not a big deal. It's just a sandwich. But I would be, you know, greatly annoyed. And I know my wife would be really annoyed if she told me I want this sandwich and then I showed up with a totally different sandwich.00:04:18XochitlGreat.00:04:38JackWhich containing an ingredient that I know she doesn't like and then saying, oh, but this is my favorite sandwich. You gotta try it. It's like. Well, then, why don't you buy that your favorite sandwich for yourself and give her some of yours and buy her the sandwich that she wants?00:04:56JackLike, that's what an adult would do. This is what a child would do is what this guy did. So she's married, she's not married, or she's dating a a child. Not a, not a man, you know.00:04:57XochitlYeah.00:05:07XochitlYeah, OK, good. We're on the same side of this debate. A lot of men in the comments were saying.00:05:13XochitlBecause he went and got the sandwiches, but also what he changed to you. If he if he was buying it with his own money.00:05:23JackNo, it wouldn't. It wouldn't change because like again, like she, she specifically asked for a a sandwich, a ham and cheese sandwich.00:05:33JackAnd you're showing up with a tuna sandwich.00:05:36JackIt's like.00:05:39JackYou know, kind of like, uh, if I asked you to buy me an Americano and you show up with a macchiato or something, it's like, oh, no, I didn't want the, you know, extra 300 calories of sugar or whatever. I just wanted a, a plain Americano.00:05:56JackUM, it it's just, it's just it's kind of like I I guess the the sandwich is irrelevant. It's more of like, are you listening to your partner, are you, you know, are you paying attention and and are you do you understand their wants and needs and design?00:06:12JackYears. And are you putting those desires above your own desires to have basically two sandwiches and she has none. You know, that's the that's the the manipulation here. It's like it's like a scheme. I'm gonna. I'm gonna find a way to eat my sandwich and your sandwich and you're gonna like it.00:06:27XochitlRight.00:06:34JackYou know, like you're gonna say thank you. It's it's like it's it's twisted. It's it's, it's diabolical, you know.00:06:35XochitlRight.00:06:41XochitlI know. And the crazy thing to me is that I I bet he had his wallet on him and he could have just bought himself an extra tuna sandwich with his.00:06:48XochitlMoney and gotten her what she wanted, but he was like, Nah, I'm gonna use her own money, especially if like to get myself something I want. But I agree with you. I don't think it would have changed regardless. Like, it's like if someone asks you cause especially when you're in the long term partnership and especially if you get married and stuff, usually it becomes both of your money.00:07:09XochitlRight. So it doesn't really matter. It's just.00:07:13XochitlIt comes down to are you listening to the person do.00:07:15XochitlYou care about what they want.00:07:17XochitlOr are you a selfish?00:07:19XochitlYou know.00:07:21XochitlJerk.00:07:21JackB hole. Yeah, exactly. Why. Why can't you? Why can't you buy your girlfriend a a sandwich when she's not feeling well? It's like, come on, dude. You're collecting money from your girlfriend. I mean that. That really tells everything that says everything that needs that, that I need to know right there.00:07:26XochitlYeah, yeah.00:07:35XochitlThen.00:07:42JackIs that the guys took the money from her and not only that, but he's going to buy himself a sandwich with her money. It's like.00:07:53JackSorry, sorry, lady, but you, you this guy is not a keeper, you know. Throw this one back because there's plenty of fish in the sea. Yeah.00:07:59발표자No.00:08:00XochitlAnd.00:08:04XochitlYeah, it's funny because he actually said, oh, yeah, he was sweet to get me food. So like, he gets a pass. I was like.00:08:11JackWell, how? How many miles did he walk to?00:08:13JackGet the sandwich.00:08:13XochitlWhat I'm in that situation is make the person go either one.00:08:18JackYeah. I mean, if he drove, then I can.00:08:20XochitlTimes that I wanted or you're giving that money back. Pay for sandwich that I don't want.00:08:26JackYeah.00:08:27JackNo, I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm on team. I'm I'm. I think she should have. She should have been annoyed with him. I don't know how angry you can get over a sandwich. I don't think you should start World War three. You know, in the relationship. But it's just like another little. It's it's like another little little like sign that this guy's.00:08:29XochitlYeah, you're driving back.00:08:44발표자 3Hey.00:08:47JackThe total loser, you know? That's, that's what I've that's the way I interpret.00:08:52JackAnd I'm sure there's probably a million other ways that he's of kind of a loser in that relationship as well, so.00:09:00XochitlI'm curious to know what you would have done if you had been on the receiving end of getting a sandwich you didn't want. Like would, would you make the person go back? Would you ask for your money back or would or would you call them out? Or?00:09:12XochitlWould you?00:09:14XochitlWhat we say thank you and in your mind.00:09:17JackThat's that's an interesting point.00:09:20XochitlLoser. I gotta cut him loose.00:09:22JackWhen it comes to me, there is no sandwich. Then I don't like. So you know, I'll eat anything at any time.00:09:31JackYou know, it could be a horse meat, you know, sandwich. I'll probably eat it, you know? And uh, I wouldn't say anything. I'll, I'll.00:09:41JackYeah, it it it. It's not it. It doesn't. Uh, the situation doesn't fit well with me because there's nothing on the subway menu that I wouldn't eat. Maybe if I got a vegetarian sandwich should be like a little disappointed, but still eat it. You know, I wouldn't complain, you know?00:09:59JackBut in this case.00:10:02JackI think she should be slightly annoyed because he's trying to be manipulative, you know, and it's it's it's obvious and he's trying to get her to.00:10:12JackActively participate in in the manipulation and be like you know, be grateful for.00:10:20JackA trick that he's pulling on her. So you know, I just, I I don't appreciate the. I mean I appreciate the effort on his part to try to get.00:10:29JackAway with this?00:10:30JackIn a in a weird in a twisted way. I kind of appreciate it, but but I I hope that she sees through it and and it doesn't fall for for the.00:10:39발표자Right.00:10:40JackThe the silliness of this of this guy's excuse. He's he's fine. Yeah.00:10:44발표자Right.00:10:46XochitlSo this wouldn't fly with you. And what would you do? Would you send the person back for a sandwich? Would you ask for your money back, or would you just quietly accept it? Yeah. Leave a comment down below at AZ englishpodcast.com.

Episode Show Notes / DescriptionPatrick Riley found himself frustrated.  His company Riley Heating & Cooling in the little, 200-person town of Lucas, IA, had been in business since 2007. No matter what he did, Patrick couldn't push the company past the $700K revenue mark.  That's not all that bothered him… Patrick longed to provide his team with the proper benefits he knew they deserved.  Patrick joined CertainPath roughly 18 months ago looking for answers, and he's found them. In a short period of time, Patrick has worked hard on his business.  Riley Heating & Cooling finally shattered the $700K glass ceiling, finishing 2022 at $1MM in sales and 2023 at $1.3MM in sales.  Even better, the company went from barely making a profit to an impressive 17%.  What has Patrick done with that additional money? Invest it in the company with a second location and new vehicles… and he's also accomplished his big goal of providing health insurance, a 401K, and profit sharing with his people.  Patrick also takes the team on outings and cooks them a homestyle breakfast that puts Cracker Barrel to shame every Wednesday morning.  Business is good, and life is good for Patrick and Riley Heating & Cooling. How did Patrick turn his business around so quickly?  A lot of training, working with his coach, and putting in the hours to implement.  For the full story, you'll have to watch/listen.  Show NotesThe Successful Contractor Podcast is a part of the CertainPath family.  CertainPath builds successful home service businesses—and has for 25 years.  We do it by providing contractors with a proven path to success, professional coaching, software solutions, and a member community of 1,100+ strong.

In this episode of the A to Z English Podcast, Xochitl and Jack look at three words which were added to Webster's Dictionary in 2023.Transcript:00:00:01JackWelcome to the Adas English podcast. My name is Jack and I'm here with my co-host social. And today we are going back to Webster's dictionary and looking at some words that have recently been added to Webster's Dictionary in 2023.00:00:19JackAnd so so the first one, I have no idea what this means here. Uh finsta finsta.00:00:28XochitlOhh a Finn star. You you don't know what this.00:00:32JackIt sounds like some kind of.00:00:33JackTax thing that I have to file or something.00:00:36XochitlNo, no, it's a it's a an insta but for like friends, it's like a private insta which sounds kind of weird.00:00:47XochitlLike friend in store or something, but it's a private insta.00:00:52XochitlCause a lot of people have per public Instagrams now and finsta just has more private content and it's less geared towards like it's not really a, it's a social media page in the same way that your personal Facebook would be a social media page and less in the way that a typical.00:01:11XochitlInstagram is run, which is kind of for like likes and clout and stuff you.00:01:15JackOhh so like on Facebook I because I'm so old. I use Facebook. Uh. Mostly. Uhm I can.00:01:23JackI can make my page public or private, right? I can.00:01:26발표자 3MM.00:01:27JackSo only my friends can see it. But like other strangers out there in the world, cannot. If they if they go to my page, there's no information.00:01:35JackAction there. This is basically like a second Instagram account, but it's it's just for your friends. Like any just for the people that you want to see it, not promoting your I don't know what the promoting yourself image or promoting your whatever you're selling or whatever that would be your public Instagram.00:01:36XochitlYes.00:01:56JackYour regular Instagram.00:01:58XochitlYes.00:01:59JackOK, alright. OK, fenced. Uh, it says here that it stands for fake.00:02:00발표자 3Yeah.00:02:04JackThe.00:02:05JackLike fake and Insta finsta.00:02:07XochitlInstagram, huh?00:02:08JackBut maybe you're you said friend Insta. I think that makes more sense to me. Finsta like friend and Insta Finsta.00:02:17XochitlNow I'm gonna Google it cause.00:02:20XochitlWhat is fenced, which I'm sure our fans will be happy to hear? Yeah, fake Instagram account made so user can post images, interact with other accounts in a more private way.00:02:30JackYeah, I mean, that's exactly what you said.00:02:30발표자 3Usually.00:02:31XochitlFrom the accounts followers to close friends. Yeah. So that's what I thought, friend. Instant. Not fake insta.00:02:36XochitlYeah.00:02:39JackYeah. Well, we're we're quibbling over the portmanteau, but ultimately it doesn't matter. The meaning is exactly the same. Yeah, since OK.00:02:44XochitlBut the meaning is the same. The meaning is.00:02:48XochitlYes.00:02:51JackAll right, so #2, the second one is grammable.00:02:59XochitlUh grammable means able to post on Instagram.00:03:05JackOK.00:03:06XochitlLike if you're if you get some a plate of food and it's just glad that's not grammable, but if you get a a served like a plate of sushi and it's beautiful colors and really neat looking, then that's grammable. You can post it on the gram Instagram.00:03:23JackOK.00:03:25JackSo I should I ask my wife, honey?00:03:30JackAm I grammable? Is my face grammable? Yeah, I don't. I probably don't want to know the answer right to that.00:03:36XochitlYou probably, I think you'd probably be used more for like your outfit. Like if you dressed up like an outfit and a certain outfit and you're like, is this outfit grammable like I think it's it's less about like a person's attractiveness, learning more about like.00:03:48JackYeah, yeah, yeah. It's less about attractiveness. It's more about just like the the situation or whatever the the, you know, the, the, the outfit or the the way the the food is played.00:04:00JackDid the way the sun is hitting the mountaintop or whatever? Yeah.00:04:01XochitlYes.00:04:05XochitlYes, I think it means picture picturesque, you know, picturesque. Like is it picturesque basically.00:04:08JackPicturesque, yeah.00:04:12JackGrammable. Yeah, that's funny. I've just. I've never heard this before, grammable. But it it makes a lot of sense.00:04:19XochitlI haven't really.00:04:21XochitlI hadn't really heard anyone use it. I'll be real, but I just know I know what it means because people say put it on the gram kind of as a joke or do it for the gram. It's kind of ironic, but it's not usually used in a in a literal like people aren't. People are using it in in an ironic way, so I kind of knew to them.00:04:41XochitlFor what it means, but honestly, I've never heard anyone kind of say.00:04:43XochitlIt in real.00:04:44XochitlLife so.00:04:45발표자 4I could the way.00:04:46JackI could see it used to be like a group of friends are sitting around and then the the waiter brings all the food or waitress.00:04:52JackThe food server brings the food and then somebody goes like grammable like kind of as a question, and then everyone goes. Yeah. And then they pull out their cameras and they your phone is.00:05:02XochitlRight, that that could work. Or like Dang, this played a very grammable or something. Then people without their phones or whatever. Yeah, I think so.00:05:03JackInspected.00:05:10발표자 3OK.00:05:12JackOK, awesome. Alright, so that was our our second one that was related to to social media and the last one this one is not but this one is I think kind of.00:05:27JackI think it's it's kind of applicable to like these days, like how people are feeling rage quit.00:05:35XochitlOhh yeah that one is it's. It's usually used in the context of video games where something dumb happens when you're playing a video game and it makes you rage quit like it's like yes into the thing and break it. It's like let's say your video game is lagging and it keeps kind of.00:05:47JackYou throw the remote control.00:05:55XochitlLagging and being slow and taking a long time to load screens or switch screens and so at that point you just get set up and you rage quit because.00:06:04XochitlYou were in a very high, like.00:06:08XochitlIt's got to work out kind of mindset, you know, so I think.00:06:10JackA fit of anger or frustration. Something like that.00:06:13XochitlYes, yes. So I think for I think it can be used now like with anything like you could say. Ohh I rage quit my job yesterday cause we had a line of of 50 customers and I was the only person working.00:06:29JackYeah.00:06:29JackYeah. You, you, you, you push the like the I I forget what you call those the the cash register you just threw it on the ground and walked out of the the you know took your badge off threw it on the floor and walked out and never went back to that job again that would be rage quitting.00:06:29XochitlI am.00:06:50JackRight.00:06:51XochitlYes.00:06:52JackYeah.00:06:53발표자 4Yeah. Have you ever rage quit anything before?00:06:57XochitlI I don't think I've ever rage quit. I'm more of a do it, like, put your head down. Do it. Even though you don't want to, and then quit later.00:07:01JackMm-hmm.00:07:08발표자 4Yeah, I'm a I'm a I'm a quiet quitter. I think there's another. Yeah.00:07:12XochitlI'm quite quitter too, Jack. That's a. That's another one. Our our uh listeners may not know quiet quitting is. Is something used nowadays? Refer to someone who starts doing the bare minimum or under the bare minimum of responsibility at a job in order to.00:07:31XochitlBasically.00:07:33XochitlKind of quit or get fired without having to quit.00:07:38JackYeah, it's a very passive aggressive, but but it's, but it's much easier than like facing the boss and telling them, you know, I hate this job. You know, it's it's when I worked in like.00:07:48JackA lot of.00:07:49JackLike customer service jobs, when I was young, you know, when I was in high school and college and you know, I would quite quit.00:07:58JackYou know, basically like mentally I'm. I'm done working.00:08:03JackSix months before I actually stopped working the job. So you know, I wasn't even doing any of the work anymore or just to just to barely enough to not get fired, you know?00:08:16XochitlYeah, I was quiet. I was quite quitting at the law firm I worked at when I first got out of college and my first job at college was at that law firm. I hated that job and definitely quite, but especially when I worked out how much I was making an hour.00:08:16JackJust enough to not get fired.00:08:32JackRight.00:08:34XochitlNo. No way was I gonna be sitting there working my **** off. It was just a no brainer. I quite quit immediately.00:08:42JackYeah, you gotta you gotta pay me the the the lowest amount legally possible. You're gonna get that level of effort from me. That that's it. Like how hard I try.00:08:51발표자 3Yes.00:08:54JackIs very much. Compares very much to how much you pay me. You know you wanna pay me 50 bucks an hour? I'll work my **** off, you know? So it's just capitalism folks, but yeah.00:09:01발표자 3Yep.00:09:10JackOK.00:09:11XochitlReally.00:09:12JackYeah, that. That's our last one for today.00:09:15XochitlOh great all.00:09:16XochitlRight.

CleanEffects is Trane's premier solution to deliver cleaner air to the entire house by removing up to 99.98% of airborne particles that pass through the reusable filter including 99.9% of Influenza A (H1N1) virus. Restricted air flow through a clogged filter forces your system to work harder, reducing its lifespan. Trane CleanEffects uses a powerful, patented ifD corona field to charge incoming air, causing particles to adhere to the CleanEffects collection cells as air passes through. Since your furnace or air handler isn't struggling to work against a clogged filter, clean air flows freely. The Trane CleanEffects collection element is ground-breaking. Each layer is only 0.08 inches apart, with alternating charges, which makes for a stronger, more effective collection field. What is more, the TraneCleanEffects element has eight times the collection surface (over fifty sq.ft.) of a standard electronic air cleaner, so it is vastly more efficient at providing clean air throughout your home.

Rewind to 8 years ago. In 2015, I joined New York Toastmasters to improve my public speaking skills, and the dream of becoming an executive coach helping women become bolder, braver, and better paid was just a glint in my eye (https://www.jamieleecoach.com/apply). As a newbie, I prepared a 7 minute speech on aligning your "guts" (mindset), "eyes" (vision), and "heart" (emotions and listening skills), with partner dance as a metaphor for productive negotiation. (Watch it here: https://youtu.be/YP0DR-QM5as?si=y2gj6c1kI1i8vg0s)Everything I shared in the speech is now integral to my coaching philosophy. It's been nearly 8 years and I've coached hundreds of women all around the map and helped them negotiate $3MM+ in pay. What you'll learn: What the "Fresh Start Effect" is and how to leverage it for motivation Why it's important to think about value from the negotiation counterpart's perspective, and how to do it What mastery is really about, and how the most simple, basic things can help you achieve it --As an executive coach for women, I'm super passionate about helping smart women who hate office politics get promoted and better paid. I do this through my unique combination of: Self-directed neuroplasticity tools backed by science Negotiation strategies proven to work for women by academic research Intersectional feminist lens that honors women's real, lived experiences To learn about my 1:1 coaching series and to book your free hour-long consultation with me, click here: https://www.jamieleecoach.com/apply--Enjoy the show?

CleanEffects is Trane's premier solution to deliver cleaner air to the entire house by removing up to 99.98% of airborne particles that pass through the reusable filter including 99.9% of Influenza A (H1N1) virus. Restricted air flow through a clogged filter forces your system to work harder, reducing its lifespan. Trane CleanEffects uses a powerful, patented ifD corona field to charge incoming air, causing particles to adhere to the CleanEffects collection cells as air passes through. Since your furnace or air handler isn't struggling to work against a clogged filter, clean air flows freely. The Trane CleanEffects collection element is ground-breaking. Each layer is only 0.08 inches apart, with alternating charges, which makes for a stronger, more effective collection field. What is more, the Trane CleanEffects element has eight times the collection surface (over fifty sq.ft.) of a standard electronic air cleaner, so it is vastly more efficient at providing clean air throughout your home.

Brown's Plumbing & Heating in Steinbach, Manitoba, is a family business. Chad Brown's grandfather started it in 1974, and his dad owned and operated it for much of its history. A caricature of his image adores the sides of their vans. Chad and his wife purchased the company five years ago with the goal of continuing the legacy, and he's done a strong job thus far. Since joining CertainPath, sales have roughly doubled, as the company is approaching $3MM in revenue. In a small service area of only 30,000 or so, Brown's Plumbing & Heating has over 3,2000 Google reviews with an average rating of 4.8. Chad's clearly been busy implementing a multitude of systems and procedures. The most important changes he's made have been to how the company recruits, onboards, and trains. Chad is a people person, a strong communicator. He learned early that to have a successful service company, he must be surrounded by service-oriented people. He's done a great job of doing that. As a result, Brown's Plumbing & Heating has been thriving—and its future is even brighter.In this interview, Chad talks in-depth about the family business, including how they…· Strategically plan monthly with his leadership team to keep the business looking and moving forward.· Avoid wasting techs' time by the call center always verifying homeowners will be present the next day.· Keep their callboards full during typical slow seasons thanks to their club membership program and regular outbounding.· Utilize an inside salesperson to do much of the outbounding calls on unsold opportunities.· Implement regular training, including relying on outside resources to help strengthen their technicians' skills.· And so much more!Show NotesThe Successful Contractor Podcast is a part of the CertainPath family.

This is Part 4 of our series – First Principles for Startup Founders   In this episode, Scott talks about why ACTION is essential to learning when it comes to your startup's sales and GTM process.   Ideas are great, implementation is better. Because that's the ONLY way you know if your idea is any good, collect metrics and know how to improve. To understand what is our target market? Who are we selling to? What is the messaging? Why are they buying? What's the value we create? How do they buy? Who are the people that are involved? What's the decision process like? How do we implement with new customers?   All of these learnings come through implementation, whether you're going from 0 customers to your first 10, or from those 10 customers to your first $1MM in revenue. That continues to shift and change as you grow from $1MM to $3MM, $3MM to $10MM to $30MM, and so on. Sometimes you win, and sometimes you learn. Either way, you're ahead of where you were before.   —

In the 10th episode of Shoot The Shit, my long-form conversations with awesome people in the fitness industry doing amazing things, I got to sit down with the founder of Functional Bodybuilding, Marcus Filly. Marcus is a brilliant fitness coach and decorated CrossFit Games athlete. At the end of his competitive career, he flipped the switch on how we would all look at the concept of "bodybuilding" and created his own unique belief in fitness. Growing his online fitness company to over $3MM per year in annual revenue, Marcus has to manage the roles of being the CEO and the on-camera talent simultaneously - a skillset that is not easily performed at a high level. Still, Marcus is proving that his multi-talented abilities in business are only getting better with time.

As a business owner, you have spent years growing your company. But there may come a time when you're ready to move on to new endeavors. When that time comes, it's important to have a clear plan for exiting your business. Lindsay Pinchuk shares her experience in stepping away from what she has built and the process that comes next. She also talks about the key steps needed when it comes to entering agreements as part of the exit planning process. Learn more about the elements necessary to ensure a smooth and successful exit from your business. Highlights 03:22 I don't think as a founder, you ever think like “I'm ready to leave,” you're not really ready to leave until you are ready to leave.  08:11 I know what it's like to want to jump out of bed and get going in the morning and I didn't have that anymore and it was in that moment that I said, you know what? I think my time has run up.  09:11 I think that, had I been able to do it over again, I think I would have thought a lot more about this process and talked to other founders who exited before entering an agreement.  18:26 I just need to stop for a minute and say to myself, how did I do it the first time and ok now, how can I do it the second time but faster because I know exactly what I'm doing. To name the thing and break down the steps.  23:33 Be honest with yourself in what is your unique gift, what is the demand in the marketplace and what is it that you want to do.  _______________________________________________________________ Listen  Apple Podcasts - Spotify - Google Podcasts - YouTube Connect with Lindsay Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/lindsaypinchuk/?hl=en ( @lindsaypinchuk) LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lindsaypinchuk/ (Linkedin.com/in/lindsaypinchuk) Website:https://www.lindsaypinchuk.com/ ( Lindsaypinchuk.com) Connect with Welcome to Eloma Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/welcometoeloma ( @welcometoeloma) Website:http://welcometoeloma.com/ ( WelcometoEloma.com) Weekly Email Newsletter:https://rayneix.us19.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=ef5b203d3a56f90cbd51c7a54&id=9db6f8746e ( bit.ly/RIXEmail ) Connect with Kiley Social:https://www.instagram.com/kileypeters/ ( @kileypeters) +https://www.linkedin.com/in/kileypeters ( Linkedin.com/in/kileypeters) Websites:https://rayneix.com/ ( RAYNEIX.com) ,https://brainchildstudios.com/ ( BrainchildStudios.com),https://kileypeters.com/ ( KileyPeters.com) Weekly Email Newsletter:https://rayneix.us19.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=ef5b203d3a56f90cbd51c7a54&id=9db6f8746e ( bit.ly/RIXEmail) Email: info@rayneix.com  Lindsay Pinchuk's Bio  Lindsay Pinchuk left her corporate job and started a business with $500 and a baby in her belly.
