Introduction In this episode of Coffee with Samso, we reconnect with Brett Hazelden, Managing Director of OD6 Metals, to explore how the company is navigating two of the most intriguing thematic opportunities in the market today — rare earth elements (REEs) and copper. OD6 was first introduced to the Samso audience in a very different market — rare earth sentiment was hot, clay-hosted projects were flooding the ASX, and recovery pathways were still largely unproven. Fast-forward to 2025, and the game has changed. The company's flagship Splinter Rock project in Western Australia is now underpinned by validated heap leach metallurgy, enhanced nano-filtration, and a robust understanding of orebody consistency — ticking the key boxes that separate projects with longevity from the fleeting momentum plays. At the same time, OD6 is quietly advancing a highly prospective copper VMS project at Gulf Creek in New South Wales, where historical high grades and recent drilling suggest potential for a standalone, company-making discovery. This conversation explores both sides of the OD6 story — a smarter REE flow sheet, and the search for a modern VMS discovery in an overlooked district. Rare Earths at Splinter Rock – Smarter Processing, Lower Capex, Better Product ✔ Heap Leach Breakthrough What started as a "just in case" test alongside traditional tank leach flowsheets has emerged as a breakthrough: heap leaching not only works — it offers higher recoveries, lower reagent use, and slashes capex. 75–80% recoveries from column testwork Removes the need for tanks, filters, tailings dams Simplifies the flowsheet and reduces environmental impact "Everyone expected heap leach to fail with clays. Instead, we found it performs better — less equipment, cheaper, and scalable." – Brett Hazelden ✔ Nanofiltration: A Technical Edge In August 2025, OD6 announced it had successfully trialled nanofiltration on its leach solutions — a key value unlock: Cuts acid use by 80–85% through recycling Reduces downstream plant size by 70% Enhances product purity and ESG credentials Nanofiltration acts like a REE-specific desalination process — separating heavier rare earths from light elements and allowing a high-quality EM-rich product to be recovered with minimal waste. ✔ Orebody Confidence – Consistency at Depth OD6's testwork has focused on the Inside Centre area of Splinter Rock: 120Mt @ ~1600ppm TREO (from a broader 680Mt JORC) Broad, flat geometry with 70–80m of mineralised clays Simple stratigraphy with consistent metallurgy Upcoming bulk column testing with ANSTO is validating how the ore performs across depth zones — the top 40m vs. the bottom 40m — to ensure no surprises in full-scale operations. OD6's Advantage in the Rare Earth Game OD6's rare earth mineralogy is distinct from hard rock monazite or apatite systems, allowing for ambient temperature leaching. Other projects require aggressive cracking at high temperatures — expensive and carbon-intensive. OD6's approach works at room temperature, using simpler, cheaper reagents. "You can't just apply heap leach to any rare earth project. Ours works because of our unique mineralogy — that gives us a genuine technical edge." Strategic Thinking: Beyond China, Beyond Hype OD6 is focused on developing a high-purity, globally marketable rare earth carbonate, and potentially refining it further into selective oxides (e.g., NdPr oxide). While the REE market has been volatile, OD6's strategy is focused on real offtake, real product, and long-term survivability: No reliance on inflated spot prices or unsustainable government support No hype-driven LOIs with no substance Clear cost pathway: ~USD $300M capex vs $1.2B for many peers "There's a lot of noise in rare earths, but not many with a product that works. We're now one of the few still standing, with a technically sound, economic pathway." Gulf Creek VMS Copper Project – A Sleeping Giant? While rare earths remain the flagship, the Gulf Creek Copper Project in NSW could be the catalyst that delivers near-term excitement. Historic production (1896–1912) reported grades of 2–12% Cu Drilling confirms mineralisation continues below the old mine 4.6% Cu intercepts in recent programs VMS-style system with multiple repeat structures mapped Strong magnetic signatures tied to known mineralisation OD6 is currently drilling new targets — Big Bend, West Limmon, Northwest — that exhibit geophysical and geological similarities to the main Gulf Creek lode. "VMS is a small company's holy grail. High grade, modest tonnage, fast capex. Just look at what DeGrussa did for Sandfire." With solid land access, supportive local communities, and compelling historic grades, Gulf Creek could evolve into a separate copper value centre — and even warrant a spin-out if the results continue to deliver. Samso Concluding Comments OD6 Metals today is not the company it was in 2022. This is now a business with: A technically proven REE flow sheet A heap leach process that defies conventional wisdom Clear understanding of mineralogy, product quality, and economic constraints And now, a copper discovery story brewing quietly in NSW. In many ways, OD6 is a case study in how to advance a resource project the right way — quietly, methodically, and with the long game in mind. It's also one of the few juniors with genuine dual-commodity upside — a defensive REE platform and a high-grade VMS copper wild card. For investors tired of rock chip hype and non-binding fluff, OD6 is a rare earths company with a product that works — and a copper discovery that could change the narrative altogether.

Listen in as Erin and Amy discuss: Why "feeling good" can be a legitimate business strategy—and how Amy built multi-location success by following what resonated rather than what was "supposed to" work. Masculine vs. feminine operating modes: getting out of the head (constant doing/figuring out) and back into the body, heart, and receiving. The future-self practice: "Have tea with the you who already made it" and act from that state today. Coherence matters: pairing a clear mental intention with the magnetic field of the heart to avoid success that costs your well-being. September's invitation to let go: releasing identities, "shoulds," and old voices to step onto a higher-frequency timeline ("vacation energy" on demand) … and much more! About Amy Wilkinson is a Soul Embodiment Mentor, intuitive guide, manifestation teacher, and host of the global podcast The Abundance Club. She supports spiritual, soul-led women to embody their highest expression and manifest their most aligned lives through frequency, identity evolution, and divine co-creation. With over 20 years of experience in personal growth and spiritual leadership, Amy is known for her grounded wisdom and deeply transformational spaces. She built a thriving yoga and wellness brand from scratch - growing it to multiple studio locations before successfully selling the business as part of her soul's next evolution. Amy's own journey has included navigating burnout, identity shifts, motherhood, and the path of spiritual awakening. Through it all, she discovered the power of aligning with her soul's truth, shedding limitations, and becoming an energetic match for the life she was truly here to live. Now, through mentorship, retreats, and her signature teachings, Amy guides women to awaken their intuitive gifts, reclaim their power, and rise into the radiant, abundant version of themselves who is already living the dream. Her work is rooted in the knowing that we are expansive souls having a beautifully human experience and that manifestation is not something we do, but who we be. Amy lives on the Sunshine Coast, Australia with her husband and three children, living a life she once called a dream and now teaches others how to do the same.

In a world increasingly defined by opposing views—political, organizational, and even personal—many of us find ourselves struggling to bridge divides. Whether it's tension on a team, differing values within a family, or conflicting perspectives in society, polarization can quietly erode trust and connection. As a philosopher, political scientist, and management consultant with more than 25 years of global experience, Ivo Brughmans has spent much of his career helping leaders and organizations navigate these divides. The author of Paradoxical Leadership: Making Complexity an Advantage and the forthcoming Depolarization: A Paradoxical Approach for Society and Organizations, Ivo draws from years of research and practical experience to show how we can turn polarization into deeper understanding. As our guest in Episode 245 of The Mindset Game® podcast, Ivo shares: The key distinction between conflict and polarization—and why polarization often stems from identity rather than issues How to recognize the hidden emotional and psychological layers that drive division in teams, communities, and within ourselves Practical ways to depolarize conversations through curiosity, empathy, and self-reflection, even when opinions clash How leaders can reduce polarization by fostering psychological safety, authenticity, and a shared sense of purpose Why true unity doesn't mean agreement—but mutual recognition and respect for differing perspectives To learn more about Ivo Brughmans and his work on paradoxical leadership and depolarization, visit https://paradoxical-leadership.com.

In this episode of Cloud Wars Live, Bob Evans speaks with T.K. Anand, Executive Vice President at Oracle, during Oracle AI World in Las Vegas. The discussion centers on Oracle's new AI Data Platform, a major initiative designed to help customers harness their own data to drive AI transformation. Anand outlines how Oracle's open, unified approach to managing enterprise data enables organizations to bring AI directly to their business processes, while also citing breakthrough developments in industry-specific applications.Reinventing with AIThe Big Themes:Data + AI = Business Reinvention: Enterprises cannot simply adopt AI as a bolt‑on; they must combine their private business data — workflows, applications, processes — with advanced models if they hope to reinvent themselves ahead of disruption. Anand notes that many AI/LLMs have been trained on public domain data and thus “know nothing about our customers' private data.” The AI Data Platform is designed to enable that union.Pre‑integrated with SaaS Applications: For customers of Oracle's large SaaS portfolio (e.g., Fusion, NetSuite, industry apps) the AI Data Platform offers tailored variants that are pre‑integrated with the application's data models and semantics. This means organizations get out‑of‑the-box predictive models, analytics, and agents aligned to their workflows, but still have the full platform underneath to extend or customize. This helps reduce time‑to‑value for companies using those applications.Full Stack Advantage: Oracle positions its differentiator as owning and integrating the full stack: cloud infrastructure (OCI including autonomous database), data and analytics platform, applications (SaaS) and now AI/agents. This end‑to‑end control enables closer integration between data assets, applications, and AI use cases. For example, having application workflow knowledge baked into the data platform allows faster mapping from business process to predictive agent.The Big Quote: “The AI Platform is all about helping our customers achieve AI transformation through the power of their own data."More from T.K.

At the Wildix Partner Day in Venice, Technology Reseller News Publisher Doug Green sat down with industry analyst Dave Michels to discuss his impressions of Wildix's first-ever analyst event and what it reveals about the future of UCaaS, AI, and the channel. Michels, a respected voice in enterprise communications and author of TalkingPointz, described the event as “a real look inside a company that's not just talking about digital transformation — they're living it.” “Wildix zigs where everyone else zags,” Michels said. “They've built a single-tenant UCaaS architecture for the cloud — something almost nobody else is doing — and it's full of advantages. Customers don't care if it's multi-tenant or single-tenant; they care about flexibility, data residency, and performance. Wildix has figured that out.” Michels noted that Wildix's 100% remote workforce and decentralized culture reflect the flexibility it delivers to customers. “They actually practice what they preach,” he said. “They've built a distributed organization that uses their own tools every day, and that authenticity shows through.” A key differentiator discussed was Wildix's hardware-integrated UCaaS ecosystem, including x-hoppers — an AI-enabled communications platform for retail and frontline workers — and x-bees, designed for knowledge workers and collaboration. “The x-hoppers headset is a perfect example of applied AI — it's connected, voice-activated, and aware of business workflows,” Michels observed. “If a shelf runs out of stock, it can alert staff automatically. It's an intelligent, practical use of AI that drives immediate ROI.” Looking ahead to 2026, Michels said that AI is reshaping every part of the communications stack — and that this shift favors channel partners. “AI is the magic drug right now,” he explained. “But to really leverage AI, companies need expertise — and that's coming back to the channel. We're seeing a major swing toward partners because they know how to implement, customize, and deliver these complex, outcome-driven solutions.” Michels concluded that Wildix's approach — flexible deployment options, integrated AI, and strong partner alignment — mirrors where the entire industry is heading: toward configurable, outcome-focused communications.

Back in the olden days (after those bikes with the one really big wheel and the one tiny wheel, but before TikTok), when we spoke about the rental market, we meant apartments. Sure, there were plenty of “mom and pop” rental homes, but no one thought about them, and no one was building new ones. But over the last decade-plus, build-to-rent (BTR) has emerged as an ever-growing part of our national housing solutions. As BTR has grown and evolved, NexMetro Communities has played a key role in these changes. On this episode of the New Home Insights podcast, CEO Josh Hartmann joins me to talk about NexMetro, its philosophy, what drives it, his view of the market, and his take on BTR and its competition.
Send us a textWhat if growth didn't feel like a grind? We sit down with founder Ricardo Viso to explore how joy can be designed into your day, your team, and your culture so creativity, focus, and results compound. Ricardo's path—from retail and e‑commerce to beating a severe cancer diagnosis—reshaped how he thinks about work and life. He breaks down why happiness often depends on outcomes, while joy is a repeatable practice you can build with small, reliable inputs.We get tactical fast. You'll learn how to reset mornings without the blaring alarm, choose an informed media diet that avoids anxiety spirals, and use simple breath and music cues to shift state. Inside the workplace, we map a step-by-step approach to dissect recurring tasks, reduce friction, and add elements that lift energy. Managers get a modern playbook: learn each person, rebalance work based on strengths, shorten meetings, and design formats that protect attention. We also explore how AI can analyze calendars and project boards to reveal hidden drains and help teams swap or batch work more intelligently.Ricardo introduces the “joy file,” a personal list of small, dependable mood lifters—songs, short calls, quick reads—that you access daily to stabilize your baseline. The payoff is practical: when people are more joyful, they think more clearly, generate more options, and collaborate with less friction. That translates into higher productivity, lower turnover, and a culture that actually supports bold goals. If you're leading a fast-growing team or rebuilding momentum after burnout, these tools help you move from intention to implementation.Enjoy the conversation?

Today's episode is part of our special series exploring one of the most vital dynamics inside every agency's sales process: trust and distrust. Over the coming weeks, you'll hear from agency leaders who are leaning into this issue head-on. These conversations are not only timely — they're also forming the research foundation for my next book, The Trust Architecture, and a new series of Field Guides we'll be sharing with our community. Here at Predictive ROI, we help agencies sell more of what they do. And time and again, from our work alongside agency owners and their teams, we've seen that trust — or the lack of it — is the biggest variable determining whether your pipeline flows like a steady stream of right-fit prospects… or grinds to a halt. When trust is present — momentum builds. When trust is absent — friction takes over. Which makes today's conversation a perfect fit for this series. Our special guest expert is Darren Magarro, Founder and President of DSM. Since launching DSM in 2007, Darren has led his agency through the ups, downs, twists, and turns that every agency owner knows too well. But what truly sets him apart is how he leads. Darren's people-first, community-centered approach is at the heart of how DSM builds trust. He works tirelessly to put others on a path to success — and that shows up in every corner of his business. When trust increases — optimism replaces grievance — and people shift from frustration to future-focused hope. Darren's leadership embodies that shift. What you will learn in this episode: The rock solid data that proves why "people-first" and community-centered leadership is now the must-have ingredient for agencies that want to build real trust How Darren's approach to leadership at DSM turns transparency and empathy into a competitive business advantage Why budget qualification must happen early The three-step biz dev process that weeds out bad fits so you can focus on dream clients Why client stories, tough conversations, and owning mistakes can translate directly into agency resilience and reputation Candid advice for agency owners who want their team and clients to be truly optimistic about the future Why your LinkedIn content should be more helpful Resources: Website: https://thedsmgroup.com/ LinkedIn Personal: https://www.linkedin.com/in/darrenmagarro/ LinkedIn Business: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-dsm-group/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDSMGroup Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedsmgroup

What if the only way to build unshakable success is to suffer for it every single day? As part of the “Road to the Summit”, a special series ramping up to the 2025 Game Changers Summit this November 12–13, we're revisiting some of the most powerful conversations ever featured at our events. In this encore episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, we're throwing it back to the 2023 Game Changers Summit, where Joe De Sena, founder and CEO of Spartan Race, took the stage to unpack what it truly takes to lead with grit, persistence, and purpose. From cleaning pools for mobsters in Queens to building a global fitness empire that nearly collapsed during the pandemic, Joe's story is a masterclass in resilience. He reveals that doing hard things isn't punishment but preparation, and that embracing discomfort builds the kind of resilience that separates those who survive from those who succeed. Here's what you'll learn: Why embracing adversity every day builds the grit required to win How to find your “why” — and use it to push through the toughest moments What it takes to turn pain, persistence, and purpose into long-term success If you want to build a life that can't be broken, this episode will show you how to earn it. ---- Show Notes: 02:43 – Joe recalls growing up in Queens surrounded by hustlers and mobsters — and the lessons that shaped his early work ethic. 07:26 – The business advice Joe received from a mob boss that taught him the value of showing up early, going above and beyond, and never asking for money. 11:53 – Joe shares how his repeated rejections from Cornell taught him the power of persistence and delayed gratification. 18:46 – The creation of Spartan Race — how Joe turned his passion for endurance and suffering into a global fitness empire. 20:44 – Joe reveals how the pandemic nearly destroyed Spartan, costing $50 million, and why grit kept him from quitting. 25:42 – The story of the Japanese marathon monks and what extreme commitment looks like in practice. 33:48 – Why manufacturing adversity every day — through cold showers, burpees, and hard choices — is the key to building lasting resilience.

Episode Summary: In this episode of The Advancing Women Podcast, Dr. Kimberly DeSimone explores the science and social conditioning behind women's emotional sensitivity, and reframes it more accurately…as a strength, not a flaw. Research shows that women, on average, have lower baseline serotonin levels than men; but the story doesn't end there. This biological difference interacts with hormonal cycles and cultural expectations to shape how women feel, respond, and are perceived. Dr. DeSimone reveals how emotional responsiveness, so often dismissed as being “too emotional”, is actually a powerful form of emotional intelligence, leadership, and adaptive strength. From boardrooms to families, women's ability to read the room, sense tension, and lead with empathy is not “soft,” it's strategic. This episode offers both a scientific and empowering reframe that helps us honor our depth, protect our energy, and lead from emotional authenticity without apology. In this episode, you'll learn: Why women's serotonin levels affect emotional sensitivity — and what that means for mood and connection. How cultural conditioning distorts emotional intelligence into “overreaction.” The “gendered emotion hierarchy”, and how bias defines which emotions are labeled as strength or weakness. Why empathy and sensitivity are forms of data gatheringand leadership. How to protect your emotional energy through mindful boundaries and self-compassion. Key Takeaways: Sensitivity is strength. Emotional attunement is intelligence. Emotion is data, not drama. Boundaries protect your empathy. Reframing emotional intelligence is revolutionary leadership. Mentioned concepts: Serotonin and hormonal influence on mood Gender socialization and emotional labor Emotional intelligence and leadership Patriarchal bias in emotion valuation Mindful self-protection and boundary-setting #AdvancingWomenPodcast #EmotionalIntelligence #WomenInLeadership #SensitivityIsStrength #GenderBias #EmotionalIntelligenceAtWork #EmpathyInLeadership References: Don't Call Them Soft Skills: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dont-call-them-soft-skills-with-communications/id1569849100?i=1000606194105 Brain and Behavior Research Foundation (2024).

With the win, the Union swept the best-of-three series against Chicago and now have a three-week break before facing the winner of Charlotte FC vs. NYCFC. Todd and José share their thoughts on the match, discussing topics such as: Tai Baribo scoring his first goals since August 23rd and what that means for his confidence, whether the three-week break is an advantage or disadvantage, the momentum shift after Andre Blake's penalty save, and what deserves credit for the Union conceding only two goals from open play in their last six games.

Most organizations don't fail because leaders lack vision — they fail because decision-making can't keep pace with reality. The Alignment Intelligence Podcast explores how accountability, clarity of direction, and distributed decision authority actually scale inside complex enterprises. We challenge the old dogma that AI can't support strategic alignment — and instead show how AI expands leadership context, improves the quality of decisions, and gets entire organizations rowing in the same direction. This is where self-management principles meet real-world execution. For leaders who know alignment isn't a buzzword — it's the operating system that drives growth.

Interview with Gord Glenn, President & CEO of Minnova Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/minnova-mci-planning-price-pace-potential-partners-1103Recording date: 28th October 2025Minnova Corp (TSXV:MCI) presents a distinctive investment opportunity in the junior gold development space, combining near-term production potential with substantial infrastructure advantages and exceptional leverage to elevated gold prices. The company is advancing the past-producing PL Gold Mine in northern Manitoba toward production by late 2027 or early 2028, following a strategic pivot from underground to open-pit mining that transforms the project's risk-return profile.The company's most significant competitive advantage lies in its existing infrastructure. An on-site 1,000-ton-per-day mill remains in serviceable condition, requiring only $15-20 million in refurbishment versus the $100+ million that peer companies must invest to build new processing facilities. Combined with owned power lines connected to Manitoba's hydroelectric grid and major permits still in place from the 1980s operation, Minnova effectively enjoys a $50-75 million head start over grassroots developments. The mill's location just 200-300 meters from the planned open pit eliminates the substantial haulage costs and logistical complexity that burden many competing projects.The transformation in gold prices has fundamentally altered project economics. Minnova's 2017 feasibility study, prepared when gold traded at $1,250 per ounce, contemplated an 800-ton-per-day underground operation producing 46,000 ounces annually. While technically viable, the project struggled to attract financing. With gold now above $4,000 per ounce, the company has shifted to an open-pit strategy that can utilize the mill's full 1,000-ton-per-day capacity from day one. The 2017 underground scenario showed a 300% after-tax internal rate of return at $2,500 gold; the lower-cost open-pit approach should deliver even stronger metrics.The technical program supporting this strategy has progressed rapidly. Minnova engaged A&B Global Mining, a South African engineering firm with extensive open-pit and narrow-vein experience, to develop preliminary pit designs and engineering studies. Current drilling, initiated in September 2025, has intersected visible gold in mineralized structures outside the existing resource estimate, while infill drilling aims to upgrade resource confidence levels. The company targets Q1 2026 for its preliminary economic assessment and updated mineral resource estimate, followed by an updated feasibility study in Q3 2026.The financing environment has shown early signs of validation. In summer 2025, Minnova attracted its first Australian institutional shareholder, along with new interest from European and US investors—a geographic diversification that signals the investment thesis is resonating beyond traditional Canadian junior mining circles. Open-pit development specifically appeals to project financiers, offering lower operating costs, reduced technical risk, and shorter development timelines compared to underground operations.For investors, Minnova occupies an interesting position on the risk spectrum—beyond grassroots exploration but before established production. The 24-30 month timeline to cash flow generation, existing infrastructure, and advanced permitting status reduce several categories of development risk that plague many junior mining projects. The company expects annual production of 40,000-50,000 ounces at full throughput, with significant resource expansion potential demonstrated through recent drilling results.Key near-term catalysts include assay results from the current drill program, the Q1 2026 PEA release, and the Q3 2026 feasibility study—each representing inflection points where investors can evaluate whether preliminary economic expectations are validated by detailed engineering and costing. The combination of infrastructure advantages, gold price leverage, and near-term production timeline creates a differentiated opportunity for investors seeking exposure to elevated gold prices through an advanced development project with reduced capital intensity.View Minnova's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/minnova-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
In this episode of The Level Up Podcast w/ Paul Alex, we flip the script on what it means to have weaknesses—and how the very thing you think holds you back might be your greatest strength. Paul shares how not being a “tech guy” early in his career forced him to master communication and leadership, two skills that helped him build multiple 7-figure companies. Instead of hiding weaknesses, he learned to train them into assets.

Ever feel like you're working harder than ever but not actually getting closer to freedom? Most entrepreneurs chase revenue, not realizing they're building a business that traps them instead of freeing them. So, how do you create a business that gives you freedom, fortune, and fulfillment without burning out? The answer lies in building a business moat.In this solo episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I dive into a game-changing framework I learned from Cody Sanchez, a New York Times bestselling author, CEO of Contrarian Thinking, and serial entrepreneur who's on a mission to help one million people achieve financial freedom through business ownership. Cody is known for buying “boring” businesses—laundromats, car washes, service companies and turning them into cash-flowing machines. Her secret? The M.O.A.T. Strategy, a simple yet powerful system to protect your business, your time, and your peace.Here's the gist: M.O.A.T. stands for Margin, Operations, Advantage, and Total Addressable Market. It's all about creating a competitive barrier around your business so that competitors stay out, cash keeps flowing in, and you build a fortress of freedom. Let's unpack a few powerful takeaways that you can apply right now.Margin matters most.If your business isn't profitable, it's fragile. Cody's rule of thumb is to buy or build businesses that cash flow on day one. So, audit your margins—are you charging enough for your time and talent? Sometimes the simplest solution is raising your prices.Systematize or suffer.Your business should run without you. That's the true test of freedom. Start documenting tasks you've done more than three times, then delegate them. Freedom lives in frameworks, my friend—if it's repeatable, automate or outsource it.Identify your unfair advantage.Your edge might be your brand, your relationships, your humor, or your community. Double down on what makes you you. Competitors can copy your strategy, but they can't replicate your soul.Know your market size.If you're playing too small, you're capping your growth. Expand your total addressable market—how many people can your product or service actually help? Think bigger.Do a quarterly M.O.A.T. audit.Rate yourself 1–10 in each of the four areas: Margin, Operations, Advantage, and Market. Find your lowest score and make that your next focus. It's a simple way to plug holes before your business springs a leak.This episode is all about working happier and smarter, not harder. Whether you're running a $100K business or a $100M empire, the MOAT strategy helps you protect your profits, your peace, and your purpose.If you're ready to build your own fortress of freedom, tune in to the full episode and start happy hustlin' your way toward that life of balance, passion, and positive impact.Connect with Cary!https://www.instagram.com/caryjack/https://www.facebook.com/SirCaryJackhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cary-jack-kendzior/https://twitter.com/thehappyhustlehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDNsD59tLxv2JfEuSsNMOQ/featured Get a free copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful Balance https://www.thehappyhustle.com/bookSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online Coursehttps://thehappyhustle.com/thejourney/Apply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventurehttps://thehappyhustle.com/mastermind/“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors:If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.
