A Phil Svitek Podcast - A Series From Your 360 Creative Coach
Phil Svitek checks in after a busy January in LA—sharing a big progress update on The Arbiters (storyboards through Act 1, concept design ramp-up, and how he's keeping momentum while conversations with studios/distributors evolve). He also recaps working Grammys week (Grammy House + the digital/YouTube clip operation), reflects on ideas from Open Socrates about seeing the best in people and using criticism productively, then fires off quick, practical tips: record clean podcast audio, check out MIFA's new online option, explore Cinando's modernized website, and don't screw up objective requirements on client work. He wraps with a blunt take on AI CEOs needing clearer problem-solving goals, plus a nostalgic love letter to The Mummy trilogy (and curiosity about a fourth film).

In this episode of Speed This Week, the Crew Chief and driver Trey Rice dig into one of the most uncomfortable—but necessary—conversations in modern NASCAR: how sponsorship, social media value, and image influence who gets opportunities behind the wheel. The discussion centers on Toni Breidinger's eight-race Truck Series deal, breaking down whether today's racing landscape prioritizes performance, funding, visibility, or some combination of all three. The guys keep it honest as they unpack how sponsorship dollars, influencer reach, and competitive results really shape driver careers at every level of the sport.The episode also looks ahead to Daytona and the NASCAR season opener, including why the Duel races matter more than ever, which drivers are fighting for open spots, and how teams balance risk versus survival before the green flag even drops. From Truck Series depth to Cup Series pressure, plus a detour into NIL chaos in college sports and why checks and balances are long overdue, this episode blends racing insight with blunt reality. If you want a real look at where NASCAR—and sports as a whole—is headed, this is one you don't want to miss.

He explains why funding decisions, investor confidence, and commercial risk shape which ideas progress and which fall away. Using recent industry examples, he explores how failed trials affect not only companies but the wider research ecosystem, and why understanding these pressures matters for everyone working towards better treatments.

Step into Episode 190 of On the Delo as David DeLorenzo sits down with longtime friend and Arizona hospitality pro Tiffany for a candid conversation about life behind the bar, responsible service, mental health, and launching a new industry-driven concept in downtown Mesa. From nearly two decades in restaurants and bars to opening “The Walk In” while navigating new motherhood, Tiffany pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to care for guests, protect your team, and still protect your own energy. If you're in hospitality, own a bar or restaurant, or just love the Arizona beer community, this one gives you real-world perspective and practical takeaways you can use right now.Hear how Tiffany went from a 19-year-old hostess at Native New Yorker in Tempe to a respected leader in Arizona's craft beer scene, shaping programs at spots like Cornish Pasty, Postino Gilbert, and The Sleepy Whale. She breaks down the psychology of reading guests, the art and “mama bear” finesse of cutting someone off, and why hospitality that feels like family is the only way to stand out when people are more selective than ever about where they spend their money. The conversation also dives into how therapy, boundaries, lifting, early mornings, and porch coffee help her manage burnout and stay grounded in an industry that often expects you to be “on” no matter what's happening in your own life.You'll also get an inside look at The Walk In, the new “grandma's basement” bar Tiffany is opening in a historic basement space in downtown Mesa with partners Chris Rogers and Thad Krosky. Think cozy couches, wood paneling, beer neons, beer, natural wine, vinyl nights, and a serious non-alcoholic program designed for people who want the full experience without the booze. Tiffany shares the real startup journey: losing their first dream Tempe location, regrouping with help from community and a strong broker, finding the former Sun Devil Liquor basement and its old cellar “relics,” and deciding they don't have to settle for anything less than the right space.Chapter Guide (Timestamps):(0:00 - 2:40) Saturday Morning Vibes and Episode 190 Intro(2:41 - 5:56) Tiffany's Start in Hospitality: Native New Yorker, ASU, and Falling in Love with the Industry(5:57 - 12:40) Psychology Behind the Bar: Reading Guests, Responsible Service, and Care Over Transactions(12:41 - 18:21) Arizona Beer Community: Hospitality, Storytelling, and Surviving a Changing Market(18:22 - 23:58) Building The Walk In: Concept, Partners, Mental Health Focus, and Learning the Business Side(23:59 - 30:38) Losing a Location, Finding a Basement: Tempe Setbacks, Downtown Mesa, and Not Settling(30:39 - 37:56) Non-Alcoholic Programs, Mental Wellness, Therapy, and Coping Without the Crutch of Alcohol(37:57 - 43:21) Motherhood, Support Systems, Arizona Roots, and Raising Riley in Hospitality(43:22 - 47:24) Rapid Fire: Music, Tattoos, Aliens, Gold Shows, and Strength Inside and Outside the Bar(47:25 - 48:39) What's Next: Copper State Beer Festival and Built Different Community Invite

Most physicians dream of independence but dread the isolation and heavy lift of running a solo practice. What if there were a way to share infrastructure, lighten the load, and still maintain your autonomy? In this episode, Dr. Disha Spath sits down with special interviewer Dr. Dan Sooriabalan and guest Dr. Natalie Gentile to explore how managed services organizations (MSOs) can strengthen direct primary care practices. From sharing cross-coverage to negotiating employer contracts, she shares how she and her partner built a collaborative model that supports physicians while keeping patient care personal. This conversation is packed with lessons on leadership, partnership, and building something bigger than yourself! Key Topics Covered: 1. The Hidden Price of 401K Breaking down what a managed services organization is and why it matters for direct primary care. 2. From Vaccine Clinics to Direct Primary Care Collaboration How grassroots community efforts during the pandemic sparked the creation of Pittsburgh's first DPC-focused MSO. 3. Shared Pain Points, Shared Solutions Cross-coverage, marketing, vaccine acquisition, mentorship—how an MSO makes solo practice less lonely. 4. The Business Side of Medicine Legal guardrails, employer contracts, and the financial realities of keeping physician ownership at the center. 5. Scaling Without Selling Out Why Natalie and her co-founder built their MSO without private equity—and how they're keeping it mission-driven. 6. Not a One-Size-Fits All Why MSOs aren't one-size-fits-all and what to consider before starting one in your own region. Listener Takeaways: MSOs (Managed Services Organizations) give DPC doctors shared infrastructure—like marketing, cross-coverage, and legal support—without sacrificing independence. Collaboration often starts with small, local initiatives (like community vaccine clinics) before scaling into sustainable models. Legal and financial guardrails are essential to keep physicians—not private equity—at the center of ownership. Quarterly case reviews, mentorship, and camaraderie help prevent isolation and burnout in solo practice.

This summer, join host David Mandell as he revisits and highlights episodes from Season 3 and 4 of The Wealth Planning for the Modern Physician podcast, in our 2025 Summer Rewind Series. "I genuinely believe there is a lot of information to gain from all of our episodes deliver, but for the summer, I've handpicked a few that offer intriguing ideas and a unique perspective for physicians in 2025," says David. "I hope you enjoy this Season encore series. Have a great summer!" Episode 3.13 | Originally Released: March 9, 2023 In this episode, Dr. Shaminder (Shammi) Gupta joins David to discuss his career path, the impact of Hurricane Katrina on that path, and what he is learning from being a business executive as well as a clinician. Shammi begins with his background – where he grew up, what got him interested in medicine why he gravitated to internal medicine & nephrology. He explains why his first job out of training was not a fit for him and how hurricane Katrina changed his path completely – as it did for many living in New Orleans at the time – opening up a career path he would not have considered otherwise. Shammi also covers how he built a significant dialysis practice in a smaller town setting, became president of the Kidney Foundation, and built a reputation throughout the state. This led to his practice being acquired by Monogram Health, where he works today as an executive and clinician. Shammi then shares what he is learning from the “business side” of medicine, as he builds out a multi-state medical platform for kidney health, and describes the value CEOs see in physicians who can communicate well and know their field of medicine intimately. Next, David gets Shammi's insights on wealth management, including building the right advisor team and why to potentially change advisors as you grow, and Shammi concludes with his three pieces of advice for fellow physicians, especially those starting out.

Are you sitting there thinking, “Once I finally get that promotion... once I hit six figures... once I finish this certification... then I'll stop doubting myself?” If so, I want to offer something that might surprise you. That self-doubt, it doesn't go away. Not at the next level, and not after the next milestone. In fact, the more successful you become, the sneakier self-doubt gets. It often sounds like, 'Who am I to be doing this? What if I mess this up, or I should have this figured out by now?' Does this sound familiar? If so, you're not alone. I've seen this pattern in almost every high-performing client I've worked with, especially accountants, CPAs, and high-stress professionals who are constantly balancing perfection, performance, and pressure. Self-doubt doesn't mean you're off track. It's a signal that you're growing.

In this episode, Danielle sits down with Jess Walker, founder of the unique and heartfelt illustrated greeting cards Five Dot Post, to talk about what it really looks like to build a business that supports you today—not down the road, not after you hit this or that goal, but right now. From packing every order by hand to big-box retailers, Jess's story is one of hard-won wisdom, practical mindset shifts, and the surprising ways having a business carried her through the hard times. It's an inspiring and powerful reminder that entrepreneurship can be a beautiful, freeing, and life-giving journey when we use intentionality to build the business we want and need. Key Takeaways: Doing It Yourself Isn't Always Cheaper: Jess realized she was the bottleneck in her business and nearly turned down $50k in revenue before outsourcing fulfillment. By delegating the logistics, she was able to focus on scaling and strategy, ultimately making more money while working less. Growing with Heart: Jess has grown her retail presence to over 550 stores and is now expanding into big-box retailers, while still staying connected to her brand's roots in smaller stores and their communities. Building a Business That Supports You: She shares how her business sustained her after the loss of her husband, thanks to the systems and support she had built into it beforehand. Don't Wait to Build the Business Right for Your Life: Create your business model to support you now—not “someday”—is the key to long-term success, sustainability, and joy. Topics Discussed: (00:41 – 08:08) Jess's Entrepreneurial Journey (08:25 – 12:18) Understanding the Business Side of Things (12:19 – 14:12) Overcoming DIY Overwhelm by Hiring Help (14:13 – 14:25) Rate & Review Promo Break (14:40 – 16:15) Scaling Authentically & Embracing New Opportunities (16:27 – 18:15) Building a Sustainable Business Now (Not Later) Connect with Jess Walker & Five Dot Post: Website | https://www.fivedotpost.com/ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/fivedotpost/ Book a Call with Kickstart Accounting, Inc.: https://www.kickstartaccountinginc.com/book Connect with Kickstart Accounting, Inc.: Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/Kickstartaccounting YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/@businessbythebooks Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/kickstartaccountinginc
