Are you overwhelmed not because you're doing too much, but because you're essential to everything, everywhere? In this episode, I reveal the 4 hidden signs that you're the bottleneck in your own business - and why this isn't a time management problem, it's an energetic structure problem. You'll discover why you can never actually finish your work, why delegation keeps bouncing back to you, and how to transform from being energetically essential to everything into being strategically essential to the right things. I share my personal story of working every Sunday while 8 months pregnant, and how I built systems that allowed me to take 5 months of maternity leave (twice!) without my business falling apart. If you're tired of being the person everything runs through, this episode will show you exactly how to build a business that flows instead of drains. Ready to stop being the bottleneck in your business? Book your CEO Operating Audit and discover exactly where you're essential vs. where you need systems.

Episode Overview In this episode of The John Kitchens Coach Podcast, John sits down with real estate strategist and keynote speaker Michael Collier for a high-level, real-talk conversation about what it actually takes to grow as a business owner without burning out. They dive deep into the misunderstood power of leverage—not just in business, but across all areas of life. Michael shares how agents are stuck trying to do everything, how that mindset creates burnout, and why clarity, systems, and the right support team are the keys to getting to the next level. Whether you're a solo agent, team leader, or small business owner, this episode will challenge how you view your time, your energy, and your leadership. Key Topics Covered Leveraging to Level Up Why most agents are stuck in reaction mode and burning out The difference between creating a business vs. creating a job for yourself How to get from A to B without knowing what Z looks like yet Building the Right Support Around You How to use leverage to become a better leader What tasks you should immediately stop doing—and who should take them over The power of hiring (even when cash flow feels tight) Creating Accountability That Drives Growth Why hiring a team forces you to become more organized, more focused, and more consistent How leverage leads to higher standards and stronger leadership The connection between leverage, accountability, and momentum Owning Your Strengths and Delegating the Rest The unique ability exercise: focus on what gives you energy and prints money How Michael built a content team of virtual assistants to drive brand and inbound deals Why creating content doesn't mean you have to do all the editing, posting, or managing Designing Your Life Team (Not Just Your Business Team) How leverage outside of business (like housekeepers, grocery services, laundry) gives you freedom inside it A powerful reminder that solving your life bottlenecks helps unlock business performance The mindset shifts from “how do I do this” to “who can help me solve this?” Resources + Mentions Buy Back Your Time by Dan Martell Who Not How by Dan Sullivan The Disney Way (book reference) The Leverage Lounge Podcast – coming soon from Michael Collier Strategic frameworks: SWOT Analysis, Unique Ability, Hourly Rate Exercise Discover Central Florida (Michael's YouTube Channel) “If it's gonna be, it's up to me” is the mindset that burns you out.

If you think dentistry and persuasion have nothing in common, think again. This week on BizNinja Entrepreneur Radio, Tyler Jorgenson sits down with the wildly insightful and endlessly entertaining Dr. Chris Phelps—a dentist who not only scaled from one to four practices but also happens to run the legendary Cialdini Institute (yes, that Cialdini!). From test-cramming in dental school to building a student note empire, Dr. Phelps reveals how his entrepreneurial mindset first kicked in—and how it's shaped every business move since.In this episode, Dr. Phelps unpacks the psychology of why most dentists struggle with running their practices like actual businesses. You'll learn why intelligence and technical skill aren't enough to build a thriving practice—and how mindset, instinct, and yes, marketing, all play pivotal roles. He dives into the three root reasons dentists crash as entrepreneurs and reveals how applying Cialdini's Seven Principles of Persuasion changed the entire trajectory of his business (and can do the same for yours).But it's not just theory—Dr. Phelps drops real, jaw-dropping examples: like how a small tweak to a direct mail flyer doubled his response rate after 10 years of the same campaign. Whether you're a practice owner, marketer, or just someone who wants to ethically persuade people better (without being a sleazeball), this episode is an absolute gem. Plus—he's still a wet-finger dentist. Street cred intact.------Top TakeawaysEntrepreneurial instincts can be sparked anywhere—even in dental school.Most dentists are trained to be solo wolves, not leaders—entrepreneurship requires a total mindset shift.Cialdini's principles aren't just theory—they're battle-tested business tools.Persuasion isn't manipulation—it's a skill every leader should master (ethically!).Small tweaks (aka “small bigs”) can lead to massive ROI jumps in marketing.

In this episode of Grow a Small Business, host Troy Trewin speaks with Matthew Whyatt, Managing Director of Tech Torque Systems. Matthew shares his entrepreneurial journey, scaling a previous business to 70 employees before intentionally transitioning to a leaner, more focused team of six at Tech Talk, specializing in B2B marketing for SaaS and tech companies. He discusses the power of long-term strategy, the impact of personal branding, and the growing effectiveness of hyper-personalized marketing. With revenue projected to exceed $1 million, Matthew attributes much of the company's success to a disciplined marketing approach, robust systems, and clearly defined processes. He also opens up about the realities of cash flow management, the importance of professional development, and the enduring value of mentorship in sustaining business growth. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Matthew Whyatt, the hardest part of growing a small business is avoiding distractions and staying focused on what truly drives long-term success. He stresses the temptation of chasing "shiny objects"—the latest tools, trends, or business ideas—that can derail progress. Instead, he believes in the importance of discipline, consistency, and nurturing the core business strategy. Using the metaphor of letting the oak tree grow from the acorn you planted, he emphasizes the need to water, tend, and build structure and systems around the business rather than relying on short-term tactics or quick wins. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Matthew Whyatt mentions several impactful business books, but one of his favorites that has helped him the most is The Greatest Salesman in the World by Og Mandino. He appreciates it for its powerful lessons wrapped in a fable format. He also highlights The Goal by Eliyahu Goldratt, which offers valuable insights into process thinking and business systems, and says that thinking of a business like a manufacturing process can significantly improve throughput and efficiency. These books have deeply influenced his approach to sales, systems, and business strategy. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Matthew Whyatt recommends several valuable podcasts and online learning resources for growing a small business. He highlights Dale Beaumont's Business Blueprint as particularly impactful, noting its structured, systems-focused approach and strong community of business owners. He also mentions learning a lot from thought leaders like Alex Hormozi and Neil Patel, especially around marketing and personal branding. In terms of podcasts, he recommends checking out Nathan Latka's podcast, which focuses on SaaS businesses and digs deep into financials and growth strategies—ideal for those in the tech and software space. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Matthew Whyatt recommends your calendar as the most powerful tool for growing a small business. He emphasizes the importance of scheduling tasks with discipline and structure to maintain consistency and productivity. In addition, he suggests exploring AppSumo to find lifetime deals on useful business tools, helping reduce the burden of monthly subscriptions while still accessing high-quality software for marketing, automation, and operations. These resources, combined with disciplined execution, can significantly enhance small business growth. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Matthew Whyatt's advice to his younger self on day one of starting out in business would be: “It's all going to be okay.” This simple yet powerful message reflects his belief in trusting the journey, staying resilient through challenges, and focusing on long-term growth rather than immediate outcomes. It encapsulates the importance of patience, perspective, and perseverance in entrepreneurship. Book a 20-minute Growth Chat with Troy Trewin to see if you qualify for our upcoming course.

About the Guest(s): Dr. Chad Woolner and Dr. Andrew Wells are the hosts of the Simplified Functional Medicine podcast. Dr. Woolner is known for helping over 300 functional medicine practitioners enhance their practices through a systems-based approach to solving chronic health issues. Dr. Wells, his co-host, has joined forces with Dr. Woolner to assist doctors in growing their businesses and making a significant impact on patient health. Together, they provide valuable insights into the field of functional medicine, focusing on practical solutions that streamline clinical practice, business systems, and marketing strategies. Episode Summary: In this provocative episode of the Simplified Functional Medicine podcast, Dr. Chad Woolner and Dr. Andrew Wells tackle the controversial topic of functional medicine certification, questioning its necessity and value. They delve into the idea that certifications may not be as crucial as practitioners are led to believe, particularly when compared to the importance of having effective business and marketing systems in place. With over 300 successful practitioners under their guidance, Dr. Woolner and Dr. Wells advocate for a more streamlined approach to functional medicine that prioritizes systems and results over formal accreditation. Challenging conventional wisdom, the hosts of the Simplified Functional Medicine podcast argue that effective patient outcomes do not solely rely on formal certifications. They explore the concept that possessing comprehensive clinical knowledge, while important, falls short without robust business strategies and marketing systems. By emphasizing the plug-and-play model of their program, they provide proof of the success achievable when practitioners focus on holistic systems and methods. This episode encourages functional medicine professionals to reassess their approach, ensuring they prioritize tangible patient outcomes and business sustainability over the pursuit of certifications. Key Takeaways: Functional medicine certification programs may not deliver the value practitioners expect, especially without complementary business and marketing systems. Success in functional medicine practice relies heavily on having proven systems in place for patient engagement and business operations. The Simplified Functional Medicine model offers a streamlined approach with ready-made clinical protocols and marketing systems, eliminating the need for practitioners to create these from scratch. Patient outcomes and business success are more effectively driven by practical systems and methods than by formal certifications. The hosts provide real-world examples of practitioners achieving significant results with their model, even without prior functional medicine certification. Notable Quotes: "Getting certified in functional medicine is a scam. There, I said it." - Dr. Chad Woolner "Practitioners want to make a living and earn money by helping solve chronic health issues." - Dr. Andrew Wells "More than a certification, what you really need is a proven system." - Dr. Chad Woolner "If you can't find patients, then I would say pause on the conversation about getting clinically certified." - Dr. Andrew Wells "The most amazing thing was that the patients are getting profound results." - Dr. Andrew Wells Resources: Simplified Functional Medicine - Learn more about the systems-based approach advocated by Drs. Woolner and Wells. Listeners are encouraged to dive deeper into this eye-opening episode to explore how functional medicine practitioners can shift focus towards effective systems over certifications for better patient outcomes and business growth. Stay tuned for more insightful episodes from the Simplified Functional Medicine podcast, where we continue to push the boundaries of traditional healthcare approaches.

CEO Amplify | Business Operations, Sustainable Growth Strategies, Small Business Leadership
When it comes to growing a business, most small business owners fall into the same trap: the more growth they experience, the more work piles up on their own desk. At first, growth feels exciting — until the extra hours, constant decision-making, and spinning plates start to wear you down. The truth is, small business growth doesn’t have to come at the cost of your time, your freedom, or your sanity. If you want to scale your business sustainably, the solution isn’t hustle — it’s systems. In fact, building the right systems is one of the smartest small business growth strategies you can invest in, and the earlier you start, the smoother your path to scaling will be. Let’s dig into what systems really are, why you need them even as a solopreneur, and how to start building them — even before you hire help. If you want support designing systems to scale, so that growth no longer requires more hours, that's exactly what you'll learn in my low-cost membership, The Profitable Small Business Club. https://ceoamplify.ca/profit **** Enjoyed this episode?
