Why the best leaders treat uncertainty as a chance to learn, not a failure to avoid.Most companies are built to grow. Far fewer are built to stay true to their purpose as they do.Eric Ries is an entrepreneur, creator of the Lean Startup movement, and author of Incorruptible: Why Good Companies Go Bad and How Great Companies Stay Great. For Ries, innovation starts with a simple reality: nobody can predict the future. “If you're going to do something fundamentally new,” he says, “how are we supposed to forecast” what success will look like? Instead of relying on certainty, leaders should focus on learning. “If you cannot fail, you cannot learn.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Ries and host Matt Abrahams explore how leaders can communicate through uncertainty, turn setbacks into valuable insights, and build cultures rooted in trust. From the power of the build-measure-learn feedback loop to the importance of making “deposits” in a company's culture bank, Ries shares practical strategies for creating organizations that innovate, adapt, and stay true to their values as they grow.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Eric RiesEric's Book: IncorruptibleEp.56 Lean Messaging: How Simple Messages Really StickEp.54 Leadership and Ethics: How to Communicate Your Core Values  Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedIn Chapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:21) - Lean Startup Fundamentals (04:03) - Business Plans vs. Reality (06:31) - Learning from Failure (08:11) - Why Companies Go Bad (10:49) - The Culture Bank (13:51) - The Final Three Questions (22:05) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.Unleash your Superhuman potential with AI that meets you where you work.

A doula business plan is something most doulas never think to create. Many assume it's for bigger businesses, investors, or bank loans. Truth is, it isn't. A business plan is the document that tells you whether your pricing makes sense, if the right clients can find you, and if what you're building will last. Without one, most doulas are making decisions without a solid business foundation to build on. This conversation covers the traditional business plan structure, but adapted for doula work, the financial reality of what this work actually pays, and the pattern of adding certifications to try and get more clients instead of fixing the foundation your doula business is built on. A solid business plan doesn't have to be complicated. But it does need to be honest. If you've been winging it, or you are ready to get started, this is where you start.

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Tiffany BusseyTitle: Director, Morehouse Innovation and Entrepreneurship Center (MIEC)Dr. Tiffany Bussey discusses how the Morehouse Innovation and Entrepreneurship Center works to scale Black- and Brown-owned businesses, close the racial wealth gap, and intentionally connect entrepreneurs and workers to capital, contracts, and emerging industries, particularly in sustainability. Purpose of the Interview The interview serves to: Educate listeners about the systemic barriers facing Black entrepreneurs beyond access to capital. Highlight practical solutions—programs, partnerships, and ecosystems—that create real economic outcomes. Shift mindsets around entrepreneurship, risk, and opportunity, especially in underserved communities. Expose listeners to emerging, high-growth industries (e.g., sustainability, EVs, renewable energy) instead of oversaturated traditional businesses. Promote community-based economic ecosystems, particularly the collaboration between Morehouse, Goodwill, and corporate partners. Key Themes & Takeaways 1. Entrepreneurship as a Tool for Closing the Wealth Gap Dr. Bussey positions entrepreneurship and business ownership as one of the most effective ways to generate long-term wealth in Black communities. The Center has supported 400+ scalable, mid-sized businesses, resulting in: 850+ jobs created $34M+ in new capital accessed $82M+ in new revenue generated Key insight: The problem isn’t a lack of capable Black businesses—it’s visibility, access, and opportunity. 2. “Access to Opportunity” Matters as Much as Capital While access to capital dominates the conversation, Dr. Bussey emphasizes access to contracts and decision-makers. MIEC programs are designed with opportunity partners (large corporations, general contractors, primes) so participants gain: Exposure to real contracts Understanding of supply chains Direct relationships with decision-makers Takeaway: Capital without revenue and customers won’t sustain a business. 3. The Three C’s of Business Growth Dr. Bussey outlines MIEC’s core framework: Capital – Funding and financial resources Connections – Two-way, relationship-based networks Contracts – Revenue-generating opportunities She stresses that connections only matter if relationships are mutual—it’s not enough to “know someone” unless they also understand your value. 4. Breaking Stereotypes About Black-Owned Businesses Dr. Bussey addresses harmful narratives around skill, readiness, and qualifications. She highlights intentional strategies to: Prepare businesses before opportunities arise Align training and recruitment with future industries Counter biases through performance, scale, and visibility Key idea: Preparation plus access dismantles bias. 5. Sustainability = One of the Largest Economic Opportunities Dr. Bussey reframes sustainability as an economic opportunity, not just an environmental issue: Electric Vehicles: ~$163B industry Green Construction: ~$324B industry Renewable Energy: ~$952B industry Sustainable Agriculture: ~$20B industry She urges listeners to stop defaulting to oversaturated businesses (e.g., nightclubs) and instead pursue industries that are expanding rapidly and globally. 6. Workforce Development + Business Development Must Align Goodwill provides free job training, certifications, and even stipends for individuals. Morehouse trains businesses that can hire those workers, creating a full economic loop. This ecosystem addresses two major barriers simultaneously: Human capital Business readiness Takeaway: Economic equity requires aligned systems, not isolated programs. 7. Entrepreneurship Is Rewarding—but Not Romantic Dr. Bussey demystifies entrepreneurship: It’s high-risk, exhausting, and statistically likely to fail early. Failure is part of the process, but historical and financial realities make risk harder for Black entrepreneurs. Ownership remains critical despite these challenges. Key message: Entrepreneurship is powerful, but it must be supported intentionally. Notable Quotes “Entrepreneurship and small businesses are one of the pathways to closing the racial income inequality gap.” “We don’t just provide technical assistance for technical assistance’s sake—this is about creating real opportunity.” “Capital dominates the conversation, but contracts are equally important.” “People don’t buy products or services. They buy solutions.” “We have to stop thinking only about what we feel we have access to.” “Sustainability is not one industry—it’s multiple trillion-dollar opportunities.” “Entrepreneurship is the most rewarding and the most fatiguing thing you’ll ever do.” Overall Impact The interview functions as both a masterclass and a call to action: For entrepreneurs: Think bigger, pursue scalable industries, and prepare for opportunity. For communities: Build ecosystems, not silos. For institutions and corporations: Inclusion requires intentional design. Dr. Tiffany Bussey presents a practical, data-backed roadmap for inclusive economic development—centered on ownership, access, and readiness. #STRAW #SHMS #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Les, Kurt, and Jason didn't forget about you because they took their fish oil pills, and they're here to talk about Hallmark's I'll be Seeing You! But first, Les talks about his epic birthday bash featuring celebrity appearances! Plus, Kurt recaps the Michael movie and Jason and Les are disappointed about the lack of Rebbie, Janet, and Randy (plus can we get a little justice for Tito?). And, Kurt has some Blac Chyna news you may have heard in an earlier episode. Then it's time to open up your tree poppers to take in I'll Be Seeing You starring Hallmark staple Tyler Hynes (can he get it? Vote on Threads @lifetimeofhallmarkpodcast) and two-time Tony award winner Christine Ebersol. This movie features a lot a lot of people getting into strangers' vans, but it's all part of the high-pressure super cutthroat world of patent law.    Bluesky: lifetimeofhallmark Facebook : lifetimeofhallmark Instagram : lifetimeofhallmarkpodcast Threads: lifetimeofhallmarkpodcast TikTok: lifetimeofhallmarkpod Theme song generously donated by purple-planet.com

Eric Ries had a 40-page business plan. An Excel model so complicated it would crash Excel. A team of elite students, real investors, and a working product. What he didn't have was a strategy -- and he didn't realize it until after the startup collapsed. Episode page with video, links, and more The moment of clarity came in a Boston job interview. A panel of consultants asked what he'd learned. He gave them practical tips. They told him that wasn't strategy. Sitting there, he realized he didn't actually know what the word meant. That category error -- mistaking a polished plan for a strategy -- is the mistake that eventually became The Lean Startup. In this episode, Eric traces the line from that dorm-room failure to his new book, Incorruptible: Why Good Companies Go Bad and How Great Companies Stay Great. He argues that many of the so-called best practices founders are trained to follow aren't pillars of capitalism at all -- they're modern inventions with a poor track record. We get into the Whole Foods unraveling and why John Mackey couldn't simply cut prices, the prehistory of Costco through Sol Price's fiduciary duty to the customer, and what Jim Sinegal built into Costco's governance that has held for four CEOs and forty years. We also look at Novo Nordisk's industrial foundation structure -- a hundred-year-old design that makes companies six times more likely to survive fifty years -- and why most founders have never heard of it. A conversation about strategy, structure, and the quiet ways good companies go bad.

Kämpfst du manchmal frustriert gegen Wände und fragst dich, warum du in deinem Leben einfach nicht weiterkommst? Es gibt Phasen, in denen wir endlose Pläne schmieden, uns anstrengen und rotieren, nur um am Ende festzustellen, dass wir den Durchbruch, den wir uns so sehr wünschen, einfach nicht erzwingen können. In der zweiten Folge unserer Predigtserie „Geistgetragen“ nimmt uns die Predigt mit in die Frage, wie echter Durchbruch tatsächlich entsteht. Oft suchen wir die Lösung in rastlosem Aktivismus oder flüchten uns in ständige Ablenkung, Informationsüberflutung und das Einmischen in fremde Angelegenheiten. Wir verschwenden unsere Energie damit, uns über Dinge auf der anderen Seite der Welt Sorgen zu machen, die wir ohnehin nicht ändern können, oder zerbrechen uns den Kopf über die Fehler der anderen, anstatt bei uns selbst hinzuschauen. Im Grunde versuchen wir krampfhaft, eine Welle selbst zu bauen, anstatt einfach das Surfen zu lernen. Doch die Botschaft dieser Predigt ist radikal: Echter Durchbruch ist kein Businessplan und lässt sich nicht produzieren. Er startet im Verborgenen, wenn wir aufhören, alles kontrollieren zu wollen, und stattdessen die Ausdauer finden, im Gebet zu verharren. Jesus lädt uns ein, aus der oberflächlichen Unruhe auszusteigen und seine besondere Zeit – den „Kairos“ – in unserem ganz konkreten Hier und Jetzt zu erkennen. Wenn wir aufhören, unsere Energie im Kampf gegen die Wirklichkeit zu verbrauchen, verwandelt Er unseren Stillstand in einen echten, vom Heiligen Geist getragenen Durchbruch

Send us Fan MailWhat if the future of self storage was hiding in the narrow streets of Italy? Scott records from Tuscany, Italy and shares a fascinating realization about how limited space, dense urban living, and evolving consumer behavior are shaping the future of storage worldwide. Comparing the massive self storage footprint in the U.S. to Italy's dramatically under supplied market, Scott explores whether the demand for storage is universal human behavior or simply a matter of supply catching up. He breaks down the changing habits of younger generations, the rise of mobility and smaller living spaces, and why those trends are actually fueling storage demand instead of killing it. WHAT TO LISTEN FOR:55 Is Self-Storage Demand Universal Across the World?2:29 Does Italy Have a Storage Problem or a Storage Opportunity?3:22 Are Younger Generations Making Self-Storage Obsolete?5:10 What Specialty Storage Trends Are Changing the Industry?7:40 Where Is the Next Decade of Self-Storage Growth Headed?Leave a positive rating for this podcast with one click CONNECT WITH USWebsite | You Tube | Facebook | X | LinkedIn | Instagram Follow so you never miss a NEW episode!

Send us Fan MailThis is a REPLAY of an episode first published in December 2025.Is this the moment to get bold with your next self storage move, or the moment to back away?Scott Meyers sits down with broker and former principal investor David Perlleshi of Franklin Street to unpack why today's selective market may actually be the best buying climate since the mid two thousands. David traces his path from acquiring and expanding mom and pop facilities in the Carolinas to brokering nearly two hundred properties nationwide, giving him a rare view from both the ownership and sales sides. He explains how values have reset to twenty sixteen through twenty eighteen levels, why true motivation now separates real sellers from market testers, and how smart buyers should think in price per foot rather than fixating on yesterday's cap rates. Along the way he shares what makes a great buyer in the eyes of a broker, the biggest mistake sellers make when they decide to list, and why self storage is not a set it and forget it asset but a real operations business that rewards speed, preparation, and collaboration.WHAT TO LISTEN FOR:50 How did David go from principal investor to national self storage broker?5:09 What is really happening with pricing, values, and supply in self storage today?7:56 How can you tell if a seller is truly motivated to meet the market?11:27 Why are buyers and lenders chasing stabilized deals and avoiding stalled lease up projects?18:22 What separates a merely good buyer from a great buyer in the eyes of brokers?Leave a positive rating for this podcast with one clickConnect with guests: David PerlleshiWebsite | LinkedIn | X | Facebook| Instagram| EmailCONNECT WITH USWebsite | You Tube | Facebook | X | LinkedIn | InstagramWhite Label Storage helps self-storage owners grow revenue, improve operations, and scale more efficiently with a tech-enabled management approach.

“We want to build a business that is sustainable and we want to build a business that can operate independently of you and your brilliance.” – RJon Robins, author of Profit First for Lawyers Why Your Law Firm Needs a Plan (and the Math to Back It Up) If you wouldn’t take a case to trial without a plan, then why would you run your law firm without one? In this episode, we explore one of the most overlooked (and uncomfortable) topics for law firm owners: your written business plan. Featuring an exclusive audiobook clip from Profit First for Lawyers, RJon explains why a business without a clear plan for generating revenue and profit isn’t really a business at all. It’s just a job. This is NOT about writing a 40-page document that will gather dust on a shelf. It’s about building a simple and, more importantly, actionable plan that answers the only questions that really matter: How much money do you actually want to make? What does your firm need to produce to get there? And what has to happen in marketing, sales, and production to make it real? RJon walks through the math step by step, from defining your ideal lifestyle to calculating revenue targets, case volume, and the number of leads your firm needs each month. At the end of the day, your family doesn’t care about your conversion rates or your KPIs. They care about whether your firm can deliver the life you promised them. Key Takeaways: A business plan is not optional. Without one, your firm isn’t a business, it’s a job dependent on you. Start with what you WANT, and not what you’ll settle for. Reverse engineer your numbers to determine what it costs to support your life. Keep it simple and actionable. A business plan only works for you if you use it. A business plan built on the numbers that matter (and the actions your firm will take) is the difference between owning a business that works for you and owning a job that depends on you. On the surface, they may seem the same, but the ability to truly live the life you want is worlds apart. Resource: Free Business Plan Workbook Ready to build your plan?

Create a life plan along with your business plan  Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. Just a little over a one minute investment every day for a lifetime of results.   We'd like to do is with your enterprise plan and your business plan, we say, let's create a life plan. And what does that look? What are your missions? What are the things that you want in life that are bigger than you, bigger than the business that'll still serve the community? That'll still be stimulating. That'll still be challenging. That will still, you can attach to your worth, self-worth, not just net worth, and you can be a viable contributing part of the community. And look, it's necessary. I think, you know, going back probably our parents' generation was work to 65, retired, take it easy, and travel. That's long gone. And everyone's learned that if you retire and do nothing within, I think it's three to five years, you're dead, broke and dead or dead, right? Everyone's learned. There's no such thing. You can't retire your body. You can't retire your mind. You need to be doing something that is meaningful, stimulating, and challenging, right? Hanging around your business. That's not challenging. That's just being, that's again, going back to comfort and going back to familiarity. That's the time to be the CEO of charity. That's the time to go contribute back to your church or your synagogue or your faith organization. That's the time to go on the board of your HOA, right? And that's the time to run for city council or that's the time, you know, there are things or go start another business, but don't be in that one. Your time has passed there. Like and follow this podcast so you can learn more. My name is Carl Gould and this has been your #70secondCEO.

When Sci-Fi Becomes the Business Plan A Brand Highlight Conversation with Jacob Flores, Head of Research at Type One Ventures There is a version of investing that asks what the return will be. And then there is the version that asks what kind of future the investment makes possible. Jacob Flores, Head of Research at Type One Ventures, is working firmly in the second category. Type One Ventures takes its name from the Kardashev Scale — a framework developed by Soviet astrophysicist Nikolai Kardashev that ranks civilizations by their level of technological advancement. A Type One civilization has mastered its home planet and is beginning to extend its reach beyond it. That is the destination this firm is trying to fund. Flores, a former engineer and product manager with roughly a decade of experience across industries, leads the research function at Type One with a focus on AI, neurotech, and biotechnology. The firm's investment lens is as much philosophical as it is financial. Type One looks for platform builders — companies whose core technology can be stacked across multiple applications, cultivating new marketplaces and entirely new categories of industry. Manufacturing in space is one clear example: in microgravity, it becomes possible to grow proteins, print circuits, and develop materials that cannot be produced the same way on Earth — yet those products have immediate, tangible value back on the ground. The thesis extends well beyond orbit. Type One is also backing neurotechnology companies working to restore vision and movement for people who have lost those abilities, and longevity research aimed at extending healthy human life. Flores frames these not as moonshots for their own sake, but as the new foundation layer for an entirely new level of global industry. This is a Brand Highlight. A Brand Highlight is a ~5 minute introductory conversation designed to put a spotlight on the guest and their company.

In this episode, we sit down with Jamie Joy Campbell, a veteran family law attorney from Ohio, to discuss the "half-life" of marriage and how to catch the symptoms of a dying relationship before they become terminal. Jamie shares her unique "Faith Aligned" perspective on why most people don't actually want a divorce—they want a different life—and how being proactive with your "marriage business plan" can prevent a courtroom battle years down the road.Key TakeawaysThe Half-Life of Marriage: Jamie explains her theory that if a marriage ends at year ten, it was likely dying for five years. Understanding this timeline helps couples recognize that "sudden" issues are often years in the making.The "Hard Heart" Phenomenon: Divorce isn't just a legal filing; it's the result of one or both partners' hearts hardening. Jamie discusses how to identify this callousness and the steps required to soften it.Unmet Expectations vs. Reality: Most conflict stems from "unspoken scripts." Jamie breaks down why we project fantasies onto our partners and how to align your expectations for a healthier union.Separation as a Tool for Reconciliation: Why a physical separation doesn't have to mean the end. Jamie explains how space can provide the clarity needed to decide if a marriage is worth rebuilding from the foundation up.The "Business Plan" Approach: Why prenuptial and postnuptial agreements are less about "Plan B" and more about having the difficult, necessary conversations regarding finances, family legacy, and values.Featured Quotes"Divorce is really just a legal piece of paper. What you actually want is to change how you're living. Sometimes you don't need a lawyer; you need a new way to be together." "A healthy marriage is like a rare diamond. You don't just find it; you protect it, you polish it, and you treat it as the high-value asset it is."In This Episode, We Discuss:The "Half-Life" theory of failing marriages.Why cheating is a symptom, not the root cause, of divorce.The difference between needing a divorce and needing a physical separation.The 5-step "Faith Aligned" process for marital unwinding.The emotional and financial cost of grieving a "living death."Why we ignore red flags: "You cannot know what you don't want to know."Using prenups as a business plan for your family's future.Resources MentionedJamie Joy Campbell's Webinar: Navigating Divorce & Spiritual Reconciliation.Register HereFollow Joy Here: FacebookInstagramLinkedInYouTubeTikTokRecognizing Potential: Marriage coaching for high-achieving professionals.Email: coaching@recognizingpotential.comWebsite: www.recognizingpotential.comVerafy your relationship using the Verafied app hereSKOOL CommunitySEO Keywords: Marriage coaching, relationship advice, family law, avoiding divorce, prenuptial agreements, co-parenting tips, emotional sobriety, Gottman Method, relationship red flags, Christian marriage advice.Support the show

In This Episode of Business Lunch: Roland Frasier and Ryan Deiss break down why most business plans fail and what to do instead. Rather than relying on rigid long-term forecasts, they share how to build a flexible strategy focused on quarterly priorities, key performance metrics, and constant adjustment as conditions change.
