What does it actually take to build a thriving HYROX program inside your gym — and turn it into a serious revenue engine? In this episode of Future of Fitness, host Eric Malzone sits down with David Magida, Global Head of Training at HYROX, to unpack everything gym owners and operators need to know about getting into the fastest-growing fitness sport in the world. David shares how he went from running a boutique gym in DC — nearly losing it all during COVID — to overseeing a global affiliate network of nearly 16,000 gyms. From the electric energy of a 40,000-athlete HYROX event in London, to the step-by-step framework for launching a HYROX program (whether you're crawling, walking, or sprinting), David breaks down the real business case: premium add-on memberships, ads that outperform at 3-to-1, 50% of gym revenue tied to HYROX, and a community so tight your members become your best salespeople. If you're a gym owner sitting on the fence about HYROX, this is the episode that will get you off it.

In this week's episode of the Black Girl Nerds podcast, we chat with the filmmakers behind the movie 'Kingston' which premiered at the 2026 Tribeca Film Festival. At the prestigious Kingston College, paths collide between a first generation student, the son of a billionaire, a noncommittal situationship, and a Chinese professor. The semester will shake the identity of each, and of the university itself. Carlos Key (Writer-Director) is a 24-year-old filmmaker based in New York. Spending early childhood in China and Chile, he gained an early fascination with languages and cross-cultural narratives. He continued to develop this passion through filmmaking in the following years, and pursued East Asian Studies with a focus on Chinese at Columbia University. Carlos and his now long-term creative partner Kalijah Rowe met in their Seattle high school film club. Over the past eight years the duo have collaborated on over a dozen short films, with multiple screened at festivals including SIFF and NFFTY. Their most recent projects were the short film MARRIED TO THE GAME and the featurette MEMORIES OF MEAT, where they honed their directorial style in a longer runtime format. Now, the best-friends-turned-co-directors have completed their first feature-length film KINGSTON, where they seek to capture the trials, tribulations, and general absurdity of their generation's college experience. Kalijah Rowe (Writer-Director) Kalijah Rowe is a 24-year-old filmmaker currently based in New York. After feeling limited at his film school in Seattle, he left to develop his style on his own terms. Producing numerous experimental shorts and music videos independently, he consistently found himself drawn to imagery with a surrealist texture as a tool for expressing what words could not. Kalijah and his now long-term creative partner Carlos Key met in their Seattle high school film club. Over the past eight years the duo have collaborated on over a dozen short films, with multiple screened at festivals including SIFF and NFFTY. Their most recent projects were the short film MARRIED TO THE GAME and the featurette MEMORIES OF MEAT, where they combined their individual strengths into a style that is both introspective but also kinetic. Now, the best-friends-turned-co-directors have completed their first feature-length film KINGSTON, where they seek to capture the trials, tribulations, and general absurdity of their generation's college experience. Jenna Shen (Writer-Producer) Jenna Shen is a Beijing-born filmmaker currently based in New York. She is a rising senior at Columbia University double majoring in English and Film. Her approach to filmmaking blends academic inquiry with socio-cultural awareness, with a particular focus in low budget independent, international, and arthouse cinema. EVERYTHING YOU DON'T KNOW, the first short film she co-wrote, directed, and edited in high school, has been viewed more than 40K times online and continues to spark conversations around public education in China. In New York, she has been involved in numerous thesis projects from schools such as SVA, NYU Tisch, and Columbia School of the Arts. Some of her recent credits include co-writing and producing KINGSTON (selected to compete in the U.S. Narrative Feature category at the 2026 Tribeca Festival) and co-producing MASQUERADE (a BAFTA-Yugo Short Film Commissioning Grant winner). PERFORMANCE, an experimental feature she assistant directed, is currently in post production. Host: Jamie Music by: Sammus Edited by: Jamie Broadnax Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Don't let the stock market highs fool you. Macro analyst Luke Gromen, founder of FFTT, returns to deliver a brutal reality check on what is actually happening to your money. While mainstream media celebrates green days, a hidden liquidity crisis is building behind the scenes. In this episode, Gromen exposes the massive distortion in today's markets—the seven tech stocks holding up the entire economy and why Bitcoin has fallen so far behind as stocks hit ATHs. If you want to protect your portfolio from the ultimate "sudden stop," this is the realist roadmap you cannot afford to miss. We discuss: The AI Liquidity Trap: Why soaring tech stocks are secretly starving Bitcoin of cash. The S&P 500 Illusion: How just seven AI stocks are masking a massive market flatline. The Bitcoin Bottom: Why technical indicators point to a potential correction down to $40K. The Tech Bubble Trap: Why the government is mathematically forced to keep the AI bubble alive.

What does it actually look like to take your art business seriously on social media? Maddie Grace Maierhofer knows. In this episode, Hayley sits down with the Savannah-based artist whose joyful, colorful work and daily posting habit transformed her creative career in under a year. Maddie went from 40K to over 160K Instagram followers, built consistent monthly sales, and landed a collaboration with SMEG USA along the way. They talk about what posting one reel a day actually did for her business, how she balances commissions and creative energy without burning out, what she does when shows don't go as planned, and how she navigated her first brand partnership. Honest, practical, and full of the kind of specifics you can actually use. If you've been trying to find your rhythm online, this one is worth your Monday morning commute.

For this week's episode we got Jon back in the studio, and we spent too much time chilling before the show so we convinced him to come chat with us. We discussed 3D printing, flight sim HOTAS setups, and the recent lore drop for 11th edition Warhammer 40K.

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.

What if your money problems have nothing to do with money?In this episode of Become Empowered, Sabine sits down with Scott Maderer — host of the Inspired Stewardship podcast with over 1,800 episodes — to unpack a truth most people avoid: financial stress is a symptom, not the source. The real problem is alignment.Scott opens up about his raw personal story: $60,000 in debt on a $40,000 teacher's salary, suicidal thoughts he kept hidden from his wife, and the radical turning point that changed everything. From the classroom to a corporate executive suite to launching a full-time coaching business after a stranger said, "You and your wife are weird — can you help us be weird?"In this conversation you'll discover:• Why your checkbook and calendar reveal what you actually value (not what you say you do)• The little-known difference between career and vocation — and why it changes how you live• How to master your time, talent, and treasure intentionally• The one question we stop asking adults that could unlock everythingScott shares insights from his book Inspired Living and has a free resource page exclusively for Become Empowered listeners at inspiredstewardship.com/becomeempowered.If you've ever felt stuck, out of alignment, or like your life doesn't match what you say matters most — this episode is for you.CONNECT WITH SCOTTWebsite: inspiredstewardship.comPodcast: Inspired StewardshipCONNECT WITH SABINERegister for free webinar: https://sabinekvenberg.com/be-seen-live-masterclassWebsite: sabinekvenberg.com/resourcesBook a call: talktosabine.comInstagram/LinkedIn: @sabinekvenbergTOPICS COVERED[0:01] Welcome — Introducing Scott Maderer[0:56] Scott's three words: Curious, Knowledgeable, Giving[3:40] From science teacher to corporate executive — Scott's path[4:47] $60K in debt on a $40K salary — and suicidal thoughts he kept secret from his wife[6:35] "You and your wife are weird" — how a stranger accidentally launched a coaching business[9:43] Money is the symptom — here's the real problem[12:28] "Show me your checkbook and calendar — I'll tell you if you're lying"[17:09] Scott's book: Inspired Living — assembling the puzzle of your calling[18:06] The "blood of the covenant" quote that reframes legacy[21:00] Can you — and should you — get paid for your calling?[21:51] Career vs. vocation: the word roots that will change how you think about purpose[24:09] What "calling" actually means and why it shows up in everything[29:35] Scott's final message: stop asking "what do you want to do?" — ask who you want to BE

I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Jennifer Gaddis. Interview Summary Show: Money Making Conversations MasterclassHost: Rushion McDonaldGuest: Jennifer Gaddis – Senior Quality Assurance Engineer, Educator, Founder of Road to QA 1. Purpose of the Interview The primary purpose of the interview is to inspire and educate everyday people—especially those without college degrees or traditional tech backgrounds—on how to pivot into technology careers, specifically Quality Assurance (QA), and to reframe fear around AI, layoffs, and automation into opportunity. Jennifer’s story is used as proof of concept that: You do not need a college degree to succeed in tech Transferable skills already qualify many people for QA roles AI does not eliminate jobs—it creates new opportunities Strategic career pivots can result in life-changing income and freedom Rushion positions Jennifer not only as a success story, but as a new blueprint for wealth-building through skills, not credentials. [ 2. Interview Overview (High-Level Summary) Jennifer Gaddis shares how she: Pivoted into tech in 2021 with no degree Went from $40K to six figures within 90 days Built a $400K+ remote household income with her husband Created Road to QA, helping 200+ people land tech jobs Accidentally built a multi-million-dollar education business Used personal hardship, COVID, financial stress, and family responsibility as fuel—not limitations She explains what Quality Assurance engineering is, why it is resistant to AI replacement, and how regular users of apps are already doing parts of QA work without realizing it. 3. Key Takeaways A. You’re Already More Qualified Than You Think Jennifer emphasizes that everyday digital behavior translates into QA skills: Using apps Identifying bugs Expecting software to “work correctly” Navigating systems as an end user This insight forms the core of her teaching philosophy. B. The Faster You Add Skills, the Faster You Increase Income Jennifer repeatedly notes: “The difference in your paycheck is your skillset.” By stacking skills (manual QA → automation → AI testing), professionals increase their market value, not just job security. C. AI Is a Career Accelerator, Not a Threat Rather than fearing AI, Jennifer encourages people to: Work alongside AI Become the humans overseeing AI systems Move into hybrid QA + automation + AI roles She stresses that human oversight is still required in tech deployment. D. Entrepreneurship Can Be Accidental—but Scalable Jennifer did not initially plan to build a company. Her business emerged from: Instagram stories A $97 beginner e-book Real student outcomes Her willingness to: Raise prices Build systems Hire specialists Learn financial discipline Allowed Road to QA to grow sustainably. E. Representation and Access Matter Jennifer openly discusses: Being a Black woman in tech Coming from financial insecurity Navigating family obligations Redefining success for future generations Her story challenges stereotypes about who “belongs” in tech careers. [ 4. Notable Quotes from the Interview “I landed my first year in tech within 90 days.” [ “The difference in your paycheck is your skillset.” “You’re already a software tester—you just don’t know it yet.” [ “I didn’t set out to build a company. I said yes to myself.” [ “AI still needs human oversight.” “My journey was already different, so I had to build something different.” 5. Overall Message Jennifer Gaddis’s interview reinforces a central theme of Money Making Conversations: Income growth follows skill alignment, not traditional credentials. Her journey reframes: Fear → strategy Job loss → skill expansion Limited access → self-investment The interview serves as both motivation and roadmap for anyone seeking financial mobility through tech—without gatekeeping. #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Jennifer Gaddis. Interview Summary Show: Money Making Conversations MasterclassHost: Rushion McDonaldGuest: Jennifer Gaddis – Senior Quality Assurance Engineer, Educator, Founder of Road to QA 1. Purpose of the Interview The primary purpose of the interview is to inspire and educate everyday people—especially those without college degrees or traditional tech backgrounds—on how to pivot into technology careers, specifically Quality Assurance (QA), and to reframe fear around AI, layoffs, and automation into opportunity. Jennifer’s story is used as proof of concept that: You do not need a college degree to succeed in tech Transferable skills already qualify many people for QA roles AI does not eliminate jobs—it creates new opportunities Strategic career pivots can result in life-changing income and freedom Rushion positions Jennifer not only as a success story, but as a new blueprint for wealth-building through skills, not credentials. [ 2. Interview Overview (High-Level Summary) Jennifer Gaddis shares how she: Pivoted into tech in 2021 with no degree Went from $40K to six figures within 90 days Built a $400K+ remote household income with her husband Created Road to QA, helping 200+ people land tech jobs Accidentally built a multi-million-dollar education business Used personal hardship, COVID, financial stress, and family responsibility as fuel—not limitations She explains what Quality Assurance engineering is, why it is resistant to AI replacement, and how regular users of apps are already doing parts of QA work without realizing it. 3. Key Takeaways A. You’re Already More Qualified Than You Think Jennifer emphasizes that everyday digital behavior translates into QA skills: Using apps Identifying bugs Expecting software to “work correctly” Navigating systems as an end user This insight forms the core of her teaching philosophy. B. The Faster You Add Skills, the Faster You Increase Income Jennifer repeatedly notes: “The difference in your paycheck is your skillset.” By stacking skills (manual QA → automation → AI testing), professionals increase their market value, not just job security. C. AI Is a Career Accelerator, Not a Threat Rather than fearing AI, Jennifer encourages people to: Work alongside AI Become the humans overseeing AI systems Move into hybrid QA + automation + AI roles She stresses that human oversight is still required in tech deployment. D. Entrepreneurship Can Be Accidental—but Scalable Jennifer did not initially plan to build a company. Her business emerged from: Instagram stories A $97 beginner e-book Real student outcomes Her willingness to: Raise prices Build systems Hire specialists Learn financial discipline Allowed Road to QA to grow sustainably. E. Representation and Access Matter Jennifer openly discusses: Being a Black woman in tech Coming from financial insecurity Navigating family obligations Redefining success for future generations Her story challenges stereotypes about who “belongs” in tech careers. [ 4. Notable Quotes from the Interview “I landed my first year in tech within 90 days.” [ “The difference in your paycheck is your skillset.” “You’re already a software tester—you just don’t know it yet.” [ “I didn’t set out to build a company. I said yes to myself.” [ “AI still needs human oversight.” “My journey was already different, so I had to build something different.” 5. Overall Message Jennifer Gaddis’s interview reinforces a central theme of Money Making Conversations: Income growth follows skill alignment, not traditional credentials. Her journey reframes: Fear → strategy Job loss → skill expansion Limited access → self-investment The interview serves as both motivation and roadmap for anyone seeking financial mobility through tech—without gatekeeping. #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Social media can make us believe that everyone has it all figured out, except you. You are the lone exception to the rule, and you are the only one who is experiencing unexpected disasters. That is the furthest thing from the truth! Which is why I want to highlight this week's guest, who bounced back from an unexpected business disaster and was all the better for it.  After sailing across the Caribbean for 4 years, Andrea moved back to Miami, sold her e-commerce business, and bought a landscaping company with an SBA loan. Five days after closing, the previous owner stole $7,000 and disappeared. The manager quit and told all 12 employees to leave. Revenue dropped from $70K to $40K a month. With a toddler, a newborn, and a half-million dollars in debt, quitting was not an option. She and her husband rebuilt the business, working 80-hour weeks. When the workload became unsustainable, she taught herself AI from YouTube. Within weeks, AI was answering calls, booking appointments, collecting overdue payments, and sending post-service photos. Her husband went from getting home at 6 pm to 3 pm. Fridays became family days. They turned down a $750K buyout offer. Now she runs Crewless, helping service business owners implement the same AI systems so their kids get the best of them, not what's left.   In this week's episode, we're talking about how she lost everything 5 days after closing and built it all back with AI! Life and business are not about never dealing with adversity. It's about pushing through, discovering what you're capable of, and learning new skills to make your business even better!    Tune in to hear what went wrong in Andrea's new business venture and how she dug her way out of it with AI!  Resources Mentioned: Click here to claim your Manifest Your Marca bot!   Follow Andrea on: Instagram: @andreapalacio    TikTok:@ai.andreapalacio   Website: andreapalacio.ai  YouTube: @ai.andreapalacio  LinkedIn: Andrea Palacio   Follow Erika on: Instagram @‌theerikacruzTikTok @‌theerikacruzLinkedIn Website: http://www.theerikacruz.com How to work with Erika: Sign up for the Courage Driven Latina program here!

He makes $200K, she makes $40K, and their rent is $3,000 a month. So, how much should she pay? In this edition of The Daily Dilemma, The Madd Hatta breaks down a viral internet debate that has the culture completely divided. A high-earning boyfriend went to social media to ask what a "fair" rent split looks like when living with his girlfriend. If they split it 50/50, her $1,500 share eats up nearly half her monthly income, while his share is just pocket change. But if he pays the lion's share, is he being taken advantage of, or is he just protecting his partner? We're putting the relationship math to the test. Hit play to hear the debate on income gaps, love, and living together. Catch the Daily Dilemma every weekday at 2:20 pm on Majic 102.1 or the Majic 102.1 app.

Tras un fuerte enviste de la Disformidad que casi hace que hordas de fans enloquecidas derriben la torre piedra a piedra...Continuamos...un poco más tarde... con nuestra nueva sección que como ya iréis escuchando corresponde a una parte más en concreto de este vasto Universo del Warhammer 40k. El recorrido de uno de los inquisidores con más notoriedad de todo el 41 milenio. En este episodio de Los Archivos del Ordo Xeno, abrimos un registro que no encaja en los moldes habituales de Warhammer 40.000. Aquí no encontrarás épica ni héroes de romantasy. Hay silencio, grietas y decisiones que dejan una marca imposible de quitar. A través de una historia alejada de los tropos más reconocibles del universo 40K, nos adentramos en un relato más humano, más incómodo y más cercano al horror cotidiano que sostiene al Imperio desde dentro. Este programa es también especial por el trabajo colectivo que lo hace posible. La producción y el montaje sonoro, a cargo de Antonio Lobo Salinas, alcanzan aquí un nivel especialmente inmersivo, construyendo un espacio denso y opresivo que envuelve cada escena. A ello se suman las voces de Apolo, Eremita, Sergi, Américo y Cadabre, que sostienen el tono y el ritmo del relato con enorme precisión. Cerramos el archivo con una señal llegada desde los márgenes: ATREXIAL, banda de metal extremo surgida en Barcelona, y su tema SOUVERAIN, que funciona no como acompañamiento, sino como eco final del programa. Una mención especial para Harald K. Belegurth, bajista de la banda y seguidor del proyecto. Este episodio es una declaración de intenciones: recordar por qué hacemos las cosas como las hacemos, cuidar a quienes caminan a nuestro lado y no dejar que estos trabajos queden en el olvido. Todo esto de la mano de un cuervo muy singular, ElCorintio, y de sus Cuervos de la Tormenta: Antonio Lobo Solís, Varghar, LadyOdio, Rosa, Viktoria, Rantrix y muchos compañeros más que sobrevuelan el vórtice espacio-temporal desde el que nos llegan las historias que luego graznamos en esta vuestra Torre del Cuervo.

Sorry for the delay. This week Quinton Jackson, who did the initial aeldari codex review is back on deck for the look back retrospective!

Victor Chan bought a $2,000 engraving machine off Amazon to make his girlfriend Jess a necklace — a hand-engraved star map of the exact moment they met. She thought it was the most thoughtful gift she'd ever received, and two weeks later they had a store. Two years on, By Lumine is doing $30–40K a month and Jess has quit her accounting job to go all in. A software engineer and a Big Four accountant — both with zero e-commerce or marketing experience — they started with $100 worth of blank pendants, cardboard packaging with a sticker logo, and a lot of figuring it out on evenings and weekends. What they built is a fully customisable, hand-assembled personalised jewellery brand where no two pieces are the same, consistently hitting 10x growth year on year. In this episode, Jess and Victor get completely honest about what the first two years actually looked like — two weeks with zero sales after launch, wasted batches from engraving errors, influencer gifting that went nowhere, and how US tariffs hit them just as they were finding their feet. What you'll learn in this interview: How a personal gift sparked a business idea — and the Etsy research that validated there was a real market for it Why starting with $100 worth of blank pendants and a $50 sticker logo is a legitimate launch strategy The early production mistakes that wasted entire batches — and the lesson on communicating with manufacturers down to the millimetre Why two weeks of zero sales nearly broke them — and what finally turned things around How Victor's software background became an unexpected competitive advantage — and the live preview tool that changed their conversion rate Why Meta ads outperformed every other channel for an emotional, personalised product — and how they learned it all from scratch The honest truth about influencer marketing: what they tried, what it cost, and why it didn't convert How they grew 10x in a single year while both still working full time jobs What getting hit by US tariffs mid-growth actually feels like — and how they kept going anyway Why Jess wishes she'd started earlier — and what she'd tell any founder sitting on the fence If you're thinking about starting something with your partner, building a brand in a saturated market, or just trying to figure out whether the grind of evenings and weekends is actually worth it — this episode will change how you think about what a real start looks like. Jess and Victor prove that the scrappiest beginnings can lead somewhere genuinely remarkable.

Flip Profits Hit 2008 Lows. Mobile Homes Are The FixFlipping profits just hit their lowest point since 2008.

What it is, why nobody else is touching it, and the one date in 1976 that creates the entire opportunity.We cover: - "Retiring the title,” - the legal step that converts the home into real property and opens up 30-year mortgage buyers- The one-word name change that gets you top dollar on resale- The all-in number on a typical Scrape-and-Replace deal... and the $30K to $100K profit spread on the back end- The Fairhope, Alabama flip that ballooned from a $40K rehab to $85K, and slowly bled out to $360K over 12 months- The 4 reasons nobody else is competing in this niche... and more!This episode covers the concept.

On paper, seceding is as easy as just quitting, but the real difficulty is keeping the secession going. Led by the "pious" Duke Severus XIII, this splinter faction has held itself together in a dangerous area of space. Believing the Periphery sub-sector was his by right, the Duke orchestrated fake supply shortages to force his citizens into desperate rebellion.To maintain his grip, the Duke formed dark pacts with a desperate Drukhari kabal known as the Children of Thorns. Throw in an unexpected Ork invasion from Waaagh! Grimtoof, and you have the recipe for the only definitively successful secessionist group in 40K history.Support the show

If you've hit a revenue plateau and can't figure out why nothing is working, this episode is going to give you clarity fast. In this episode of The Real Truth About Business podcast, I'm breaking down exactly why service-based entrepreneurs get stuck at certain revenue levels and why the same business strategy won't work at every stage of growth. This is for entrepreneurs sitting anywhere between $40K and $150K+ who feel like they're doing all the right things but still not seeing consistent revenue growth. After 9 years of experience, I can tell you this is not random and it's not a motivation issue. It's structural. Inside this episode, I walk you through where your pricing strategy, pipeline, or sales process is likely breaking down and how to fix it so you can move past your current ceiling.What You'll Learn:Why revenue plateaus are structural, not randomHow to identify whether your pipeline, pricing, or sales is the problemWhy using the wrong strategy keeps you stuck in a revenue plateauHow to create predictable lead generation for consistent business growthWhen to adjust your pricing strategy vs. your capacityHow to evolve your business model to scale beyond your current levelEpisode Highlights:[00:00] Introduction: Why revenue plateaus happen[03:00] The mistake of using tactics instead of strategy[06:00] Pipeline breakdown in the $40K–$80K range[12:00] Pricing and capacity issues in the $80K–$150K range[18:00] Outgrowing your business model at $150K+[23:00] Why profit matters more than revenue growth[27:00] How to diagnose the real problem in your businessKey Takeaways:Revenue Plateaus Are a Structural ProblemHere's what I see constantly. Business owners hit a revenue plateau and immediately assume something is broken.After 9 years of working with service-based entrepreneurs, I can tell you that's not the case. Revenue plateaus don't happen randomly. They happen because your business has hit a structural limit.And when you try to fix a structural issue with tactics, it never works.More content, more networking, more offers. None of that fixes the root problem. It just creates more noise.Different Revenue Levels Have Different ProblemsThis is where most people get it wrong. They try to apply the same strategy at every level.If you're in the $40K–$80K range, this is usually a pipeline problem. You don't have consistent lead generation, your leads are getting lost, or people don't know how to move through your sales process.If you're in the $80K–$150K range, this is typically a pricing or capacity issue. You're maxed out on time, undercharging, or filling your schedule with low ROI work.If you're beyond $150K, this is usually a business model problem. You've outgrown how your business is structured, and it's no longer scalable for your revenue growth goals.Your Pipeline Controls Your RevenueIf your revenue feels inconsistent, your pipeline is inconsistent.Inside the Focused Visionary Framework, the Pipeline pillar is where predictable business growth starts. If you don't have a system to generate leads, track them, and move them through your sales process, your revenue will always feel like a rollercoaster.This is where most service-based entrepreneurs rely too heavily on referrals. And when those slow down, everything slows down.You Can't Outgrow a Capacity Problem Without ChangeIf you're fully booked and still not hitting your revenue goals, you have a capacity problem.There are only so many hours in a day. At some point, you either raise your pricing strategy, restructure your offers, or change how you deliver your services.This is where a lot of people get stuck. They try to do more instead of doing things differently.Scaling Requires a New Business ModelAt higher levels of revenue growth, the issue isn't getting clients. It's how your business is structured.If everything relies on you, your time, and one-to-one work, you will hit a ceiling.That's when you need to evolve your business model. Not burn it down. Not start over. But build on what's already working in a way that supports scalability and profitability.Profit Is the Real GoalThis is the part most people overlook.More revenue does not automatically mean more money in your pocket.If your expenses increase at the same rate as your revenue, you're not actually growing. You're just maintaining.Real business growth is about increasing profitability. That's what actually moves you forward.Resources MentionedSubscribe to Back Pocket Insights for FREEBook a CEO Strategy Call Learn more about The Missing Piece IntensiveLearn more about The Focused Visionary AcceleratorDownload the FREE Lead and Conversion TrackerSubscribe to the Sunday Morning Brew NewsletterAbout the Host:Michelle DeNio is a business strategist based in Sarasota, Florida, specializing in helping service-based entrepreneurs break through revenue plateaus using her Focused Visionary Framework.

Purpose of the Interview The primary purpose of the interview is to inspire and educate everyday people—especially those without college degrees or traditional tech backgrounds—on how to pivot into technology careers, specifically Quality Assurance (QA), and to reframe fear around AI, layoffs, and automation into opportunity.

“I just had to always remind myself: be yourself, put in the work, stay present, and trust that it gets better as you go.”My guest for today's episode is Sharon Lokedi: the back-to-back Boston Marathon champion. Last month, she became only the second athlete since 1994 to win Boston in consecutive years, crossing the finish line in 2:18:51 for her second straight crown. The way she won it was extraordinary: she sat patiently through a 19-woman lead pack, waited until the hills, and then between 35K and 40K ran a 14:48 5K split — faster than the NCAA outdoor 5K record set on the track just two days earlier. She won by 44 seconds.Sharon won New York in 2022, finished 4th at the 2024 Paris Olympics, won Boston in 2025, and again in 2026. She has become one of the most complete competitors in the women's marathon — someone who doesn't need the fastest time on paper to believe she can beat anyone in the field on race day. She also ran the entire race on a borrowed Garmin because she left her own watch at the hotel and only realized it on the bus ride to Hopkinton.In this conversation, Sharon walks through the build, the pressure of returning as defending champion, and how she managed the expectation while staying grounded. She takes us inside the race itself: covering early moves, reading the hills, using the lead car as her focal point during that extraordinary 35-40K surge, and the moment she finally let herself enjoy it on Boylston Street.We also get into what it means to her to inspire other women and how she got to throw out the first pitch at Fenway Park.____________Host: Chris Chavez | ⁠⁠@chris_j_chavezGuest: Sharon Lokedi | @shazrineProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSXENDURANCE: When you finish a hard workout, the work isn't actually done.

This week in the guest chair is Leah Collins, financial coach, speaker, and host of Maxxed Out, a powerful series helping people confront their finances and the relationships tied to them. But Leah's journey didn't start on TV, it started with a moment of truth: making the most money she ever had… and realizing she had nothing to show for it.In this episode, I sit down with Leah to unpack how she transformed her own financial struggles into a thriving business, paid off $40,000 in debt, and ultimately landed her own show.
