What if the secret to scaling your firm isn't hiring more staff but stripping it back to the essentials?In this powerful episode, Bridgit Norris sits down with Karen Ansen, Principal Lawyer and Founder of Ignite HR and Employment Law, who brings over 20 years of experience guiding high-pressure organizations through complex employment law while building cultures where people actually thrive.Today, she runs a lean, highly profitable practice from Australia's East Coast, handling some of the toughest employee relations cases without the chaos of a big team.You'll hear how she reclaimed her health, freedom, and profit by redefining growth on her own terms—and why you can too.This conversation isn't about theory; it's about practical choices that could help you build a firm that serves your life instead of consuming it.If you've ever wondered whether “more” is really worth it, this episode will change the way you think about success.Key Takeaways from Bridgit and Karen:1. Consider Scaling Back Instead of UpGrowth isn't always about adding more people; it can also mean reducing complexity.By streamlining, you make space to focus on the work that delivers the most value and satisfaction.2. Guard Your Time RelentlesslyYour time is your most limited resource, and boundaries are what protect it.When you control your availability, you preserve energy while still serving clients effectively.3. Price to Reflect Value, Not Just DemandA quick “yes” from a client often signals underpricing.Adjusting fees upward reinforces your worth and ensures your practice stays financially healthy.4. Build Psychological Safety Into CultureHigh-performing teams don't thrive on pressure alone; they thrive on trust.When people feel safe to speak openly, they contribute more and stay longer.5. Align Your Firm With Your Life GoalsSuccess is hollow if it costs your health or peace of mind.When your business is designed around your life priorities, freedom and profit can exist together. "You ask every single business owner that ever started a business, they want freedom. That's all they want. It is freedom. The problem is that the business itself becomes your prison, in some ways." — Karen AnsenGet in touch with Karen Ansen:Website: http://www.ignitehr.com.au/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ignitehrlawLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/karenansen/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ignite_hr_/

On this episode, Chris is joined by Karen Bailey - Chapman, Senior Vice President - Public and Government Affairs at SEMA.  They chat about SEMA's advocacy initiatives and how electric vehicle mandates, tariffs and limiting access to public land impact the enthusiast vehicle community.  Government policy inadvertently promotes stagnating innovation, increasing costs and limiting use of public lands. SEMA's advocacy initiatives are lobbying government decision makers to normalize and reverse the negative impact government policy has on the enthusiast vehicle community and aftermarket suppliers.        It all began in 1963 when a group of small manufacturers who were suppliers of performance equipment for early hot rods organized their fledgling industry and called it "Speed Equipment Manufacturers Association" (SEMA).The mission was practical and straightforward: develop uniform standards for certain products used in motorsports competition; promote the industry as a supplier to consumers involved in constructive activities of recreational and hobbyist value; develop programs to encourage improved business practices among member companies; and hold regular meetings to achieve unity as a business organization. In those days, all of the members were founders of companies that produced speed equipment exclusively (hence, the organization's title).At the outset, the pioneering companies operated free of the constraints that come from governmental regulations and their attending restrictions. They were as aggressive and progressive as their imaginations would allow, and the mostly small businesses flourished. Today, many of the original companies are very large, successful corporations, and some, such as Edelbrock, Ansen, B&M and Offenhauser, are known internationally for their product lines. Today, more than 40 years later, the small group of entrepreneurial operations has been joined by thousands of companies, designers, producers and suppliers of specialty products that span the gamut. From performance products for street and race applications to appearance accessories for late-model automobiles and light-duty trucks, SEMA-member companies contribute to the vitality and strength of a $29.9-billion-a-year retail industry.SEMA eventually became the Specialty Equipment Market Association, embracing within its ranks all businesses in the distribution chain: manufacturers, warehouse distributors, jobbers, independent retailers, volume retailers, specialty stores (speed shops), sales agents, subcontractors and publishing companies. The membership categories even include racing teams, car clubs and special service organizations. The SEMA membership roster has steadily grown and continues its upward climb. Today there are more than 6,382 corporate members. Products supplied by the industry are in demand not only in the United States, but also throughout the world.Follow, Like and subscribe to the podcast on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and your podcast listing platform.
