From dentist to consciousness architect, Dr. Kevin Kremer shares how purpose, processes, and mindset can transform a practice into a portfolio and a leader into a builder of thriving cultures. In this conversation, I sat down with Kevin, a dentist-turned-entrepreneur who has grown and scaled ten ventures and founded the Kremer Leadership Institute. We unpack the journey from a single practice to acquisitions, a patient finance company, and an implant surgery center delivering same-day reconstructions. Kevin explains his “three Cs” framework—customer, culture, company—and why culture is the hardest to keep healthy in 2025.  We also dig into his book, Quantum Accountability, and his Quantum Awareness Model, exploring how accountability for your mindset leads to action and, ultimately, abundance. Along the way, Kevin shares a remarkable 93% year-over-year turnaround from a recent acquisition, practical ways he trains teams with playbooks and interactive learning, and how AI is reshaping both clinical and operational excellence. Here are some highlights: • The three Cs in practice: how balancing customer experience, culture, and company health creates the “sweet spot” for sustainable growth and why culture is the toughest to maintain. • From chairside to CEO: the steps that took Kevin from solo practitioner to acquiring practices, launching patient finance and membership programs, and opening an implant surgery center. • Playbooks that actually work: mapping the entire customer journey, training with short videos, and reinforcing skills through interactive quizzes to keep standards high across teams. • Mindset drives outcomes: inside Quantum Accountability and the Quantum Awareness Model and how accountability for your thinking leads to better actions and an abundance mindset. • Technology with a human core: real examples of AI in diagnostics, workflow, and same-day full-mouth restorations, plus why communication and trust will always be the differentiators.

Summary  In this episode of the Building Better Cultures podcast, Scott McInnes discusses the challenge of accountability for values with guests Karen Jones and Karen Hackett. They explore the importance of articulating and embedding organizational values, the role of managers in fostering a culture of accountability, and the potential pitfalls of weaponizing values in the workplace. The conversation also touches on the significance of onboarding processes and the need for open communication and feedback within organizations.    Takeaways  Accountability for values is a significant challenge for many organizations.  Values must be articulated and understood to be effectively lived.  Creating a culture of feedback is essential for accountability.  Managers play a pivotal role in releasing the energy of their teams.  Onboarding processes should embed values from the start.  Psychological safety is crucial for open conversations about values.  Values can be weaponized, leading to defensiveness in feedback.  Organizations need to be bold about their current culture and desired future state.  Storytelling can help connect employees to organizational values.  Time is a critical factor in enabling managers to engage with their teams.    Chapters  00:00 Introduction to Accountability for Values  01:24 Understanding Organizational Culture  04:18 Insights from the Mind the Gap Report  06:19 Bringing Values to Life  11:03 Accountability in Practice  17:17 Weaponization of Values in the Workplace  22:16 Building a High-Performance Culture  24:53 The Role of Managers in Organizational Success  30:01 Empowering Middle Managers  37:22 The Importance of Storytelling in Leadership  37:49 Effective Onboarding Practices

This episode of The Business Development Podcast dives deep into the power of focus and intentional action through Kelly Kennedy's proven weekly framework, Move the Needle. Kelly reveals how most people spend their weeks reacting to chaos instead of directing their energy toward what truly matters. Drawing from the Pareto Principle and Dr. Gail Matthews' goal-setting research, he shows how writing down just five to ten high-impact priorities each Monday can double your effectiveness and eliminate wasted effort. Through personal stories and practical tools, Kelly explains how consistent focus on the right 20 percent of tasks creates exponential results — not by working harder, but by working smarter.In this inspiring and grounded episode, Kelly reminds listeners that Move the Needle isn't just for business — it's for life. He challenges you to include goals that strengthen your family, health, and relationships, emphasizing that everything is interconnected: when one area struggles, the rest follows. With passion and clarity, he calls for progress over perfection, consistency over intensity, and impact over busyness. The episode closes with an invitation to join a community of leaders inside The Catalyst Club, where accountability, connection, and growth come together to help you keep moving the needle every single week. Key Takeaways: 1. Focusing on the right 20% of actions creates 80% of your results — the Pareto Principle in motion.2. Writing your goals down doubles your chance of achieving them; it's science-backed focus at work.3. Mondays are for direction, not reaction — take 10 minutes to plan what truly matters.4. Your Move the Needle list isn't a to-do list; it's an *impact list* designed to build momentum.5. Accountability turns intentions into commitments; share your list and let it be seen.6. Progress beats perfection — even one or two meaningful wins a week compound over time.7. Consistency is the secret weapon; the system only works if you keep showing up every week.8. Writing goals by hand programs your brain to prioritize and recognize opportunity.9. Work, home, and health are connected — when one slips, the others follow.10. Move the Needle is about living intentionally — making every week, and every action, truly count.This Week's Challenge:Write down your own Move the Needle list — five to ten actions that would make this week a win. Post it somewhere visible, share it with a peer, and review it next Monday.If you listen to The Business Development Podcast, you belong in The Catalyst Club.

What happens when two powerful women—one a psychologist devoted to leadership transformation and the other a CEO who grew up in a family-run business—join forces to rethink what it means to lead? They discover the "Sixth Level" of Leadership! On this episode of On the Brink, Stacy Feiner, PsyD and Rachel Wallis Andreasson, MBA invite us to imagine leadership not as a position of power, but as a practice rooted in purpose, connection and care. The Birth of the Sixth Level Stacy Feiner, a high-performance psychologist and coach, has long focused on helping family and mid-market companies unlock the emotional dynamics that drive sustainable success. Her fascination with human potential began early—her mother introduced her to the groundbreaking Self-in-Relation theory at Wellesley's Stone Center, which challenged male-centered models of psychology and placed women's experiences at the center of understanding human behavior. From that foundation grew The Sixth Level: Capitalize on the Power of Women's Psychology for Sustainable Leadership, co-authored with Rachel Wallis Andreasson, Kathy Overbeke, DBA, and Jack Harris, PhD. The book expands on the belief that women's relational intelligence—empathy, collaboration, and the ethic of care—is not a deviation from leadership excellence but its evolution. From Gas Station to $2 Billion Company Rachel Wallis Andreasson's story grounds those ideas in lived experience. The daughter of a gas-station owner on Route 66, she watched her father grow one small shop into a company now approaching $2 billion in annual sales. He modeled three values that remain central to her leadership: a strong work ethic, genuine care for people, and shared ownership through open communication. "When my dad walked into one of our stores," she recalls, "he didn't just check the numbers—he asked employees for their opinions. And then he used their ideas." Rachel worked for her family business for 24 years, rising to CEO and overseeing more than 1,100 employees. She is most proud of the cultural integration of the largest and most strategic acquisition of the company's history. Rachel builds cultures where people feel seen, heard, and trusted. Her philosophy mirrors her father's wisdom—lead by example, connect with authenticity, and invite others to own the company's success. The Four Core Differentiators of Sixth-Level Leadership At the heart of The Sixth Level are four principles that originate in women's social-psychology and form the basis of transformational leadership: Mutuality — Two-way empathy and shared purpose that align people behind a common vision. Ingenuity — Creative problem-solving that benefits the collective, not just the individual. Justness — Inclusion, accountability and equity built on transparency and trust. Intrinsic Motivation — Leading from within, not for external reward or authority. These are not soft skills—they are strategic capabilities that strengthen performance, retention, and resilience. "Accountability," Feiner explains, "doesn't start at the end of a project. It begins at the beginning, as a promise we make to each other to achieve success together." A Story of Transformation One of the book's most vivid case studies features Lisa, president of a rural Missouri hospital. Stepping into her role during the height of COVID-19, she found a demoralized staff, fragmented teams, and exhausted caregivers. Instead of imposing control, Lisa began by listening. She conducted open "snack-cart sessions" with employees, asking questions, sharing food, and gathering stories. From those conversations came a rallying cry—One Heart, One Team. Lisa modeled the change she wanted to see, shadowing every department, empowering cross-functional collaboration, and celebrating ingenuity at every level. The results were astonishing: record financial performance, unprecedented patient-satisfaction scores, and a palpable sense of unity across the hospital. "Transformation," says Andreasson, "is tangible. When you walk into that hospital today, you feel the caring culture. You feel 'One Heart, One Team.' " Beyond Self-Awareness to Relational Awareness Feiner believes traditional leadership training—often built on male norms—emphasizes self-control and individual performance. The Sixth Level expands that frame to relational awareness: how leaders build trust, reciprocity, and shared accountability. "We've been taught that leadership is about dominance and hierarchy," she says. "But sustainable success comes from mutuality—the capacity to care for others while driving results. Everyone can learn it. It's a human capability." A Model for All Leaders Although the book is rooted in women's social-psychology, both authors stress it is not for women only. Men thrive in Sixth Level environments too. "Command-and-control cultures haven't served anyone," Feiner notes. "When we bring the full picture—empathetic and analytical thinking together—we create workplaces where everyone can flourish." Andreasson agrees: "Culture is the secret weapon. The Sixth Level isn't a theory—it's a roadmap for building engaged teams, inclusive organizations, and caring communities." Rethinking What Leadership Looks Like As I reflected at the end of the conversation, the Sixth Level calls us to re-imagine leadership "not as power, but as purpose, connection, and deep relational intelligence." It's an invitation for all leaders—men and women alike—to claim a model that validates empathy, communication, and community as powerful drivers of performance. Perhaps the truest measure of success is what both Feiner and Andreasson have modeled themselves: leading with heart, lifting others, and proving that when we care for people, performance naturally follows.

This episode kicks off the way so many of our best ones do: with a pre-show conversation that turned into the real show. What started as a casual check-in about 75 Hard, restarts, and setbacks quickly turned into a deep dive on purpose, accountability, and the power of having people who pull you off the sidelines when it's easier to stay there.From mental toughness and discipline to rediscovering your mission and living on purpose, this one is raw, real, and packed with reminders that growth happens when you decide to get back in the game.Top 5 Takeaways from This Episode:Restarting is harder than starting. It's easy to stop when life gets messy — but the real challenge comes in finding the courage to begin again. The longer you wait, the louder the excuses get.Accountability changes everything. When you're surrounded by people who challenge you, support you, and pull you back into the game, it becomes nearly impossible to stay stuck on the sidelines.Purpose requires action. Your purpose isn't what you write on paper — it's what shows up in your daily decisions, habits, and the impact you have on others. Purpose without action is just a wish.Discipline builds freedom. 75 Hard isn't just about workouts or water — it's about creating structure, self-control, and the kind of consistency that leads to real freedom and confidence.Joy lives in alignment. When you're living on purpose and in sync with your mission, life feels fuller. The peace, fulfillment, and joy that come from that alignment make the hard work worth it.One Truth:You'll never find your purpose sitting on the sidelines — you discover it when you get back in the game and start moving forward, even when it's hard.

Hold yourself accountable so that nobody else has to.We continue our fifth week of our 7-week series of quotes based on themes from my book, "Senior Salute," with four more quotes on the theme of "Accountability."Accountability is about being responsible for your actions. An accountable person can be counted on to do the right thing. People consider you to be accountable if they expect you will take care of what needs to be done for you and your team to be successful, even if nobody is watching. Accountability builds trust between teammates because they know they can count on each other to get their jobs done. I wrote "Senior Salute" as a follow-up to my most popular book ever, "Inspiration for the Graduate." Both are gift books for coaches or parents to give to their senior athletes. "Inspiration for the Graduate" makes for a great graduation gift, and "Senior Salute" is a great gift to give on Senior Night or at the End-of-Season Banquet. Each book is filled with quotes based on various Team Themes that, hopefully, the coaches have talked with and worked on with their teams at some point in the season.Also, please consider becoming a supporter of the show.

In today's episode of the Porn to Purpose Podcast, I sat down with Coach Yeadon to unpack one of the most overlooked truths in recovery: you can't do this alone. For years, both of us tried to fight the battle against porn in isolation—relying on willpower, self-discipline, and secrecy. But in this conversation, we reveal why isolation is the silent killer of progress and how true transformation happens only in brotherhood. We break down the three pillars that make recovery sustainable—community, accountability, and healing—and share how each of these transforms shame into strength. From learning through other men's stories to practicing loving responsibility instead of judgment, this episode gives men a clear path to rebuild their integrity and walk in freedom. This isn't about theory. It's about truth, experience, and what it really takes to rise.     Top 10 Show Highlights: [00:30] Welcome to the Porn to Purpose podcast with Matt and Yeadon—today's topic: Why You Can't Do This Alone. [01:15] Matt shares how community became the missing piece in his recovery after years of trying to do it solo. [02:41] "If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together." The power of shared growth and guidance. [03:40] "Alone we are guessing. Together we are equipped." Why community gives you the tools and clarity to move forward. [05:07] Yeadon exposes the myth of the lone warrior and why even the most independent men rely on others to learn. [06:37] "The truth is, brother—you will not beat this on your own." Why isolation is just another form of denial. [08:26] Accountability redefined: visibility, responsibility, and compassion that build strength instead of shame. [10:21] "We call each other up, not out." The unique brotherhood culture inside Porn to Purpose. [15:17] Why shame-based accountability fails—and how real growth comes through grace and ownership. [17:00] "One of the blessings of community is the blessing of healing."

Todd sits down with Beau Bayh, a Democrat running for Indiana Secretary of State, for a candid conversation about Indiana's push for mid-cycle redistricting. We dig into what gerrymandering looks like in practice, whether splitting counties like Marion makes sense, and how competition and trust shape healthy elections. Beau explains why he's taking this message to conservative audiences, what bipartisan commissions can and can't solve, and why he believes accountability—not party—should guide the office he's seeking. Todd shares concerns about rising partisanship and presses Beau on how today's Democratic Party compares to the Bayh legacy Hoosiers remember. If you care about election integrity, redistricting maps, and the future of Indiana politics, this one's worth your time.
