Welcome to Episode 63 of the Freedom Factory Podcast! In this episode, host Brandon Cunningham shares one of the most powerful frameworks for building a thriving network marketing business: the 5 & 5 Rule.After nearly 16 years in the profession—front row, front seat—Brandon has seen what works and what doesn't. And while goals are great, it's standards that shape your future. This episode is a masterclass in setting the right standards to create leverage, duplication, and long-term growth.Brandon breaks down the two non-negotiables every leader must adopt:Keep 5 active, commissionable frontline partners at all timesGet those 5 to every major destination eventWhy? Because events build belief, and belief drives behavior. When your partners attend events, they come home with renewed energy, clarity, and commitment—and that translates into hours of productivity you didn't have to personally invest. It's the ultimate leverage.Whether you're just starting out or leading a large organization, this episode will help you reset your standards, reignite your team, and build a business that grows with or without you.

A lot of people who start a business do so either from (mainly) their masculine or (mainly their feminine energy.

This is the initiation into your next becoming.In part two of this sacred series with Katy Stuart, we move from remembering to reclamation. We explore what it means to rise from the rubble of old identities, to hold the sacred responsibility of your truth, and to lead—not from performance or perfection—but from deep spiritual embodiment. If part one unpacked the history of how women's voices were silenced, this conversation is about what it takes to speak anyway.This episode is a masterclass in sacred feminine leadership: how ancestral trauma and religious conditioning show up in our businesses, how the witch wound plays out through money blocks and self-sabotage, and how to lead in integrity when you're walking a path that your family, community, or culture may not understand. We talk about nervous system safety, the ripple effect of authenticity, and the courage it takes to lead not just a business, but a soul mission.This episode is for the woman who's rising through the wreckage. Who is walking her edge. Who knows there's no going back to who she used to be, but hasn't fully landed in what's next. This is for the torchbearers. The cycle-breakers. The ones who are choosing to be seen—not just for themselves, but for every woman who came before and every daughter who will follow.It's not about becoming someone new.It's about remembering who you've always been—and daring to lead from there.In this episode, we explore:What it means to navigate a death portal—when your old identity dissolves and you haven't yet stepped into your next becomingHow spiritual awakening, entrepreneurship, motherhood, and personal growth often initiate women into these sacred unravelingsThe connection between the witch wound and visibility—why fear of being seen is often an inherited trauma, not a personal flawThe role of past life regression, ancestral trauma, and energetic clearing in healing the witch woundReleasing religious programming around money, power, and self-expression—and redefining success as a spiritual woman in businessThe difference between performative visibility and embodied leadership—and how to root into your soul truth in your brand, message, and missionHow sacred responsibility shows up in motherhood and entrepreneurship—and what it means to lead with integrity while being fully humanThe sacred work of reclaiming sovereignty, creating spiritual safety, and leading from your own remembranceBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Katy:Instagram → @thekatystuartWebsite → katystuart.comJoin the Oracle Mastermind → katystuart.com/the-oracleStep into The Experience → katystuart.com/the-experienceConnect with Emily:Website: www.EmilyReuschel.comInstagram: @emilyreuschelFacebook: Emily ReuschelLinkedIn: Emily ReuschelJoin my Book Insiders List: Sign up here!Resources and...

Stéphan bootstrapped AODocs to $55M in revenue and 250 employees without taking a dime of VC money—while competing directly with venture-backed competitors.

Have you wondered why military teams have crystal clear expectations while business teams often operate in a "fricking void" of clarity? In this episode (complete with surprise appearances from Matt's son), Cam and Otis dive deep with Matt Granados, founder of Life Pulse Inc., on the missing link between expectations and performance."You have to articulate what the expectations are," Matt explains, "but then the key is you have to properly equip your people to be able to live up to them." It's this combination that's often missing in business leadership.From the fascinating distinction between high performance (unsustainable pace) and optimal performance (sustainable excellence) to the provocative question of whether we're forcing growth on people who don't need it, this conversation challenges conventional wisdom about team development. Matt even shares the four levels of performance that transform how leaders view their teams: lazy, unaware, high potential, and the elusive optimal performance.Whether you're leading a team that's struggling with clarity or you're wondering if your own "high performance" might be burning you out, Matt's practical insights offer a refreshing alternative to the "microwave theory" of leadership development.Special Link for 10x Your Team Listeners: https://www.lifepulseinc.com/coMore About Matt:Matt Granados is the founder and CEO of Life Pulse Inc., where he teaches organizations how to stop treating symptoms and finally fix their people problems—for good. A two-time #1 international bestselling author and in-demand speaker, Matt's work is grounded in real-world results, not theories. His proprietary Life Pulse Methodology fuses structure with mindset to create “Perpetual Development”—a practical, scalable system that builds high-performing individuals and teams from the inside out. Matt first proved his power by turning a Craigslist-hired crew into a $40 million sales force. Today, clients like Google, Twitter, and the U.S. Air Force use his system to improve performance, reduce burnout, and transform culture at every level. Whether he's working with executives or entry-level employees, Matt helps people take ownership of their growth and leaders build teams that run on purpose—not pressure.#10xYourTeam #TeamClarity #LeadershipDevelopment #HighPerformanceTeams #OptimalPerformance #TeamGrowth #BusinessLeadership #EmployeeDevelopment #PerformanceCulture #SustainableExcellence #LeadershipInsights #TeamEquipping #PurposeDrivenLeadership #LifePulseMethod #TeamTransformation #NextLevelLeadershipChapter Times and Titles:Setting Clear Expectations [00:00 - 18:52]Introduction to Matt GranadosThe importance of articulating standardsProperly equipping people to meet expectationsThe Military-Business Disconnect [18:53 - 25:00]"Why is it a fricking void in the business world?"Otis's experience with written expectations in the ArmyThe transition challenges for military leaders entering businessThe "All Boats Rise" Philosophy [25:01 - 42:00]Creating a culture where everyone improvesThe "microwave theory" of leadershipBuilding sustainable growth systemsA Family Interruption (and Proud Grandpa Moment) [42:01 - 43:05]Matt's son makes a surprise appearance"It's a family show!"The human side of leadership conversationsThe Four Levels of Performance [43:06 - 46:09]Lazy, unaware, high potential, high performanceThe critical fifth level: optimal performanceWhy do we force unnecessary growth on peopleHigh Performance vs. Optimal Performance [46:10 - 50:38]"High performers: high output, unsustainable pace"The subtle but drastic differencesFinding the sustainable sweet spotElevating the Whole Team [50:39 - End]The Salesforce example of valuing BDRs and SDRsTreating entry-l
