What does it really take to build a franchise brand where record sales, loyalty, and work-life balance all go hand-in-hand?Today's guest, Sam Ballas, is a serious numbers guy (his license plate literally says EBITDA!). And he is diving into his trademarked philosophy “driven by unit level economics”. Sam shares why focusing on the numbers at each location beats chasing super-sized national growth, and how regional relationships and relentless data tracking keeps his brands profitable and tight-knit. He also shares the importance of the quality of life (and ballet recitals!) even before expansion and how he stops franchise sales entirely when the time isn't right.Sam G. Ballas is the visionary Founder and Managing Partner of ZorAbility, Inc., as well as the President and Chief Executive Officer of East Coast Wings + Grill (ECW+G), Co-Founder of Sammy's Sliders, Co-Founder/Investor of Dine Growth Group (DGG) and Vice Chair of the International Franchise Association (IFA). With over 40 years of experience in the restaurant industry and 31 years in financial markets and retail real estate development, Sam has cultivated a deep understanding of building successful franchise models. His leadership is grounded in blending traditional methods with innovative, proprietary strategies to create enduring brands.So, if you want honest, battle-tested advice on franchising, balancing growth and happiness, and building teams that actually love what they do then this episode is for you!Connect with SamEmail - sam.ballas@eastcoastwings.comEmail - sammy.sliders@sgb.comEpisode Highlights:Sam Ballas' background and brand philosophyBuilding franchise brands and expansion strategyWhat are FSO's and how do they functionData-driven strategies and supporting franchiseesLeadership decisions during market challengesVetting ideal franchise ownersThe realities and challenges of restaurant franchisingLife-work balance and organizational cultureTeam structure and leadership modelValidation and franchise system growthFranchisee support and operational consistencyFranchise Directory - https://www.sba.gov/document/support-sba-franchise-directoryFranchise Registry - https://www.franchiseregistry.com/Current SBA SOP - https://www.sba.gov/document/sop-50-10-lender-development-company-loan-programsConnect with Tracy Personal LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tracy-panase/ JBF LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/jbfsale JBF Franchise System - https://jbfsalefranchise.com/ Email: podcast@jbfsale.com Connect with Shannon Personal LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannonwilburn/ JBF LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/jbfsale Website - https://shineexecutivecoaching.com/ Email - shannon@shineexecutivecoaching.com

Gatemaster believes technology is part of the experience, transforming every touchpoint into an opportunity. Imagine seamless online booking, effortless mobile ordering, and data-driven insights at your fingertips. Ready to revolutionize your guest journey and maximize revenue? Power your attraction with Gatemaster. Discover the future at Gatemaster.com.   Sondra Shannon is the Chief Executive Officer, and Jake Shannon is the Chief Growth Officer of Gatemaster Technology. With decades of combined experience in operations, business strategy, and technology, Sondra and Jake lead a company that has supported attractions for over 30 years. Gatemaster started as a point-of-sale software provider and has evolved into a full-service solutions partner for attractions of all sizes. In this interview, Sondra and Jake talk about performance coaching, revenue strategy, and technology integration. Performance Coaching “Success is your duty to make sure that your business is protected and that you are growing so that you have generations to pass this on to.” Jake shares how his exposure to performance coaching through Grant Cardone led to a transformational shift in both his personal and professional life. After becoming Cardone's top-ranked coach out of 700 worldwide, Jake applied high-performance business principles to Gatemaster, helping nearly double its revenue. Sondra was so inspired by the results that she and COO Tiffany Blair began their own coaching journey to better serve the attractions they work with. They believe that coaching—more than managing—is the key to unlocking growth, developing leaders, and driving revenue across the industry. Revenue Strategy “We increased revenue by $150,000 between March and May with no new capital investment or labor investment—just strategy.” One of the most impactful themes discussed was helping attractions rethink their revenue opportunities by packaging what they already offer in new ways. Sondra explains how creating family bundles, date night deals, and themed packages for a mini-golf client led to a major uptick in revenue with no added cost. By reframing how products are presented and communicating availability clearly (without feeling like an “upsell”), Gatemaster helps clients personalize the guest journey and maximize spend from the first interaction. Technology Integration “We're now asking ourselves all the time—who's got the kind of problems we can help solve, rather than who can I sell this system to?” As a company that's been serving attractions since 1994, Gatemaster combines technical expertise with operator experience. Sondra and Jake explain how the company has evolved beyond traditional software, adding managed services to help clients navigate staffing shortages, tool fatigue, and operational complexity. Their technology is grounded in business logic and human-centered design—something that traces back to founder Steve, a chiropractor who built systems around ergonomic functionality. With many clients staying on for over a decade, the long-term relationships reflect Gatemaster's philosophy of service, customization, and genuine partnership.

This week, our guest is Mark Maki, Chief Executive Officer of Trans Mountain Corporation. The original Trans Mountain pipeline was built in 1953, and the Expansion Project was completed just over one year ago, nearly tripling the pipeline's capacity to 890,000 B/d (from 300,000 B/d).  Here are some of the questions that Jackie and Peter asked Mark: How much do you expect to pay your shareholder (the Canadian Government) in 2025 and 2026? What are the logistics of moving the oil by tanker? Where are the tankers going, and what type of crude is shipped in the pipeline? How has the pipeline improved Canadian oil prices? What is the expected timing for a resolution on the tolls, as a Canadian Energy Regulator (CER) hearing is currently underway that could adjust the cost for shipping oil? What is the potential to increase pipeline flows, and is there potential for a northern leg as proposed in the early days of the expansion? The Federal Government has stated it plans to sell the pipeline; do you have any updates on that and the potential timing? What are your thoughts on Bill C-5 and the potential for this type of legislation to avoid the high costs and many delays faced by the Trans Mountain Expansion?Content referenced in this podcast: Globe and Mail, “Trans Mountain expects to pay federal government $1.25 billion in 2025” (May 2025)Financial Post, “Canada must maximize existing pipelines before building more, Guilbeault says” (May 2025) Financial Post, “Northern Leg to Trans Mountain pipeline attracts interest amid brewing trade war” (February 2025)Please review our disclaimer at: https://www.arcenergyinstitute.com/disclaimer/ Check us out on social media: X (Twitter): @arcenergyinstLinkedIn: @ARC Energy Research Institute Subscribe to ARC Energy Ideas PodcastApple PodcastsAmazon MusicSpotify 

It's a noisy world out there.So anytime you have that most valuable of things – a small window into your ideal customer's attention span – are you clear and memorable with your value proposition?Of course, that is all the more complicated by the fact that the small window of attention isn't only when they see your big TV campaign or whatnot, it can come from so many places – it's also when they step into your store, add something to the cart on your website, reach out to customer service, and on and on.Which is why this lesson from a podcast guest application stood out to me – “Even bad brands can be good, when they're consistent.”To hear the story behind that lesson, I talked to Drew Holmgreen, CEO, PPAI [https://www.ppai.org/].PPAI is the Promotional Products Association International, the largest trade association in the world for the $27 billion promotional products industry – a community of 15,000 members.Holmgreen manages a team of 50 and a budget of $25 million.Lessons from the things he madeRally together to overcome Murphy's LawWhen you can't send a sample, send the entire stateFormalize the brand and consistency will comeTell them what you know definitively.

This week Nicola and Di chat with the incredibly talented Rob Carlton. Rob is an award-winning actor, writer, director and an all-round brilliant storyteller, who grew up near Nicola and Di’s backfence on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. He’s been in so many memorable shows which you may have seen, including A Country Practice, Underbelly, Paper Giants, Black Snow, Boy Swallows Universe and The White Lotus, to name just a few. He also hosts Bravewords Live, with his wife Adrienne Ferreira, an event which brings wildly entertaining true stories to the stage. Bravewords Live has been such a success over the years, that they’ve now decided to bring these incredible stories to you with the Bravewords Podcast, which will be launching at the end of the month. In this episode we get all The White Lotus goss from Rob. He shares how secretive it was from the very beginning, when he first received the script to audition for ‘The Secret Garden’. He talks about how much mystery there was surrounding the show, from the script to the filming locations, and how great it was to be a part of the show. He talks about the fun the cast had on set, the friendships he made, the sketchy past of the superyacht they were filming on, and what it was like working with Mike White. Rob also give us such a great take on why he thinks The White Lotus became such a huge hit, and the Mike White magic that lies at the heart of this show. We also hear what it was like to become Kerry Packer, for his Logie award-winning performance in Paper Giants. Rob shares such an honest story of how he almost lost the opportunity before he even had the role, because of the way he was being driven by fear and self-sabotage. As well as his wonderful work in TV, we chat to Rob about Bravewords - his live storytelling events that he hosts with his wife Adrienne. The next one is coming up on June 29th at Avoca Beach Theatre with Larry Emdur. The good news is, over the years they’ve curated hundreds of brilliant true stories, and are about to release this as the Bravewords Podcast in the coming weeks. And it’s not all career chat in this episode with Rob. He also opens up about his family relationships - the magnificent lessons from his parents, what makes his marriage work, the power of having difficult conversations and the way that he tries to parent his 21-year-old twin boys. This is such a beautiful and rich conversation with Rob, and we hope you love it as much as we did.

In this episode of Molecule to Market, you'll go inside the outsourcing space of the global drug development sector with Jeanne Taylor Hecht, Chief Executive Officer and Chairwoman at Lexitas. Your host, Raman Sehgal, discusses the pharmaceutical and biotechnology supply chain with Jeanne, covering: How Jeanne's various roles have equipped her to become a more rounded CEO and board member. How a stint in Asia led Jeanne to develop her strategy playbook, including the importance of the client's voice. Jeanne's journey, taking on eight different boards and becoming a serial investor and advisor... and how that did not happen by accident. She said that having a strong relationship with a PE firm and missing the hands-on, day-to-day role of being a CEO led her back to the hot seat. Understanding why has being a specialist ophthalmology CRO given Lexitas traction with small to medium biotechs, and what is the future in store for CROS? Jeanne's industry career spanned over twenty-five years as a Board member and Chief Executive Officer of multiple companies, including CEO at Ora and Senior Executive at Median Technologies, IQVIA, Decision Biomarkers, and the UNC Oncology Protocol Office. Jeanne also launched and expanded a Life Sciences consulting practice that supported companies with sales, marketing, and market growth strategies and advisory and board work.

It's widely known I'm a huge IWC fan, and today's episode is one I've looked forward to for years at this point as it hosts Chris Grainger-Herr, IWC's Chief Executive Officer since 2017. I was fortunate to cross paths with Chris back in April when I was a guest of the brand at the Goodwood Members event. After being introduced, we shared some time chatting cars while eating hamburgers and watching vintage cars lap the track. Pretty surreal to be quite honest. An architect and interior designer by trade, Chris and I chat about his ascension within the company, having started in marketing only to begin designing stores. We discuss his relationship with Toto Wolf, his most worn watch and of course his grail car. Links:STANDARD Hhttps://www.standard-h.com/@standardh_Chris Grainger-Herr@chrisgraingerherrhttps://www.iwc.com/@iwcwatches_us@iwcwatches

Building large-scale battery storage is much more than securing capital and selecting technology. Success hinges on navigating market rules, regulatory timelines, permitting, grid connection challenges, and talent gaps - each of which varies from one country to another. Developing in a single market can alreadt present complexity. Expanding across borders introduces a new set of operational and commercial challenges, but it also unlocks huge opportunity.
In this episode of Transmission, Quentin is joined by Erik Strømsø - Chief Executive Officer at BW ESS. Erik discusses how BW ESS has adjusted to different grid codes, policy timelines, and market signals, and why success often means building a local strategy within a broader portfolio vision. Whether it's managing duration risk in the Nordics, securing interconnection in Italy, or navigating regulatory change in Germany, this episode offers a real-world look at what it takes to build flexible, investable storage in today's fragmented energy landscape.

Key topics include:
Why the UK led the early storage build-out: Market liberalisation, merchant opportunities, and a clear policy signal made the UK the launchpad for battery investment.How different European markets compare: What sets Sweden, Germany, and Italy apart in terms of project bankability, permitting, and revenue models.Scarcity as a competitive edge: How grid connection constraints and market friction can work in a developer's favour - if approached strategically.The bottlenecks no one talks about: Why access to qualified people and institutional knowledge is one of the most critical limits to scale.Contracting and capital discipline: How a long-term investor approaches merchant exposure, offtake, and project risk in high-growth markets.

About our guestErik Strømsø is Chief Executive Officer at BW ESS, the energy storage platform of BW Group - a global industrial group active in shipping, infrastructure, and renewables. Erik leads BW ESS's efforts to deploy utility-scale battery storage across Europe and Australia, with a particular focus on markets with long-duration needs and supportive policy tailwinds.

n this episode of Psychedelics Today, kicking of Psychedelic Science 2025 week in Denver, we sit down with Jonathan Dicksinson, Chief Executive Officer, and Trevor Millar, Chief Operations Officer of Ambio Life Sciences – one of the world's leading ibogaine clinics – to explore the potential of ibogaine for addiction, neuroregeneration, and how ethics, honoring experience, and sustainability will be key to delivering ibogaine at scale.  Trevor shares his early work supporting marginalized populations in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside, which led to the founding of Liberty Root, one of Canada's first ibogaine clinics. Jonathan reflects on his apprenticeship in Mexican clinics, years of international advocacy with the Global Ibogaine Therapy Alliance, and drafting the first set of clinical guidelines for ibogaine detoxification. Together with paramedic and ibogaine safety protocols expert Jose Inzunza, they co-founded Ambio in Tijuana in 2021. They discuss: The unique safety standards Ambio has pioneered – including industry-wide clinical protocols and magnesium therapy to mitigate cardiac risk. Their scale: over 3,000 patients treated, with 100+ clients per month across five dedicated houses in Baja California. Ambio's groundbreaking neuroregenerative program for Parkinson's, MS, and traumatic brain injury – which has already drawn patients like Brett Favre and Clay Walker. How ibogaine appears to drive profound physiological change – including evidence of TBI reversal as shown in Stanford's 2024 study on Special Forces veterans. Why ibogaine isn't just a molecule – it opens a long-lasting “critical period” of neuroplasticity that must be supported with preparation, integration, and holistic care. The deeper story of sourcing: through his company Terragnosis, Jonathan is the only person with a legal export license for Tabernanthe iboga from Gabon, and Ambio is setting a precedent for reciprocal and ethical global supply chains. Their cautionary perspective on Texas' $50M push toward ibogaine clinical trials – and why the traditional “one drug, one indication” model misses the complexity and promise of psychedelic healing. They also make a compelling case that Ambio is already modeling what the future of psychedelic care should look like – not a single drug in a sterile clinical setting, but a comprehensive, integrated protocol combining preparation, medical oversight, and deep integration. “Start with the end in mind,” Trevor urges – Ambio isn't just part of the movement; it's the blueprint for how ibogaine could be delivered worldwide.

One of the world's leading experts on ibogaine, Jonathan brings over 15 years of experience in clinical care, traditional practice, and psychedelic research to his leadership at Ambio. A Mexico-licensed psychologist and former Executive Director of the Global Ibogaine Therapy Alliance, he authored the field's foundational safety guidelines and has published widely on ibogaine's therapeutic, cultural, and ecological significance. He holds the only active export license for Tabernanthe iboga root, led the first Nagoya-compliant export from Gabon, and was initiated into the Dissoumba/Fang tradition of Bwiti in 2014 and the Missoko tradition in 2022. He has co-authored peer-reviewed research on ibogaine's potential for trauma, TBI, pain, MS, and Parkinson's. At Ambio, he leads strategy, research, and innovation – advancing a globally scalable model of care that bridges tradition, science, and integrity. Trevor Millar is the Chief Operating Officer and Co-Founder of Ambio Life Sciences. A social entrepreneur and pioneer in ibogaine advocacy and treatment, Trevor brings over a decade of experience supporting individuals through addiction recovery, trauma healing, and post-treatment integration. His background includes co-founding the Canadian Psychedelic Association and serving as Chair of the Board for MAPS Canada. He has co-authored peer-reviewed research on ibogaine's applications for trauma, TBI, and opioid use disorder, and has been featured in award-winning documentaries including DOSED and In Waves and War. Grounded in personal experience and guided by a philosophical approach to healing, Trevor is helping shape a new model for ethical, integrative psychedelic care on a global scale. At Ambio, Trevor leads operations, strategic partnerships, and client experience – bridging clinical care with systems design, education, and public advocacy.

Mark Fawcett, Chief Executive Officer of Nest Invest, explores how the UK's pension system has been transformed to serve a broader and more economically diverse workforce. Nest is the largest multi-employer pension fund in the UK, and it handles the retirement savings for nearly one-third of the UK working population. Nest Invest is the asset manager of Nest.  Fawcett offers a compelling narrative about scale, access, and purpose-driven financial management. Nest's core mission revolves around building financial resilience for all—an ambitious approach to investing that transcends the narrow goals of simple wealth accumulation. Fawcett discusses the profound impact of automatic enrollment, which dramatically expanded pension participation from just 10–15% of the UK workforce prior to its introduction to over 80% today. This shift has redefined the retirement outlook for millions, particularly low- to moderate-income earners, many of whom face significant income volatility and limited financial literacy. Fawcett emphasizes the behavioral finance insights that underpin Nest's strategy. By minimizing the cognitive burden of financial decision-making, Nest has made pension saving feel less like an anxiety-laden obligation and more like a manageable, automated part of life. A large majority of members remain in these default options, insulated from daily market turbulence, thanks to highly diversified investments across public and private markets. Importantly, Fawcett also touches on the risks of both under-saving and over-saving. While many need encouragement to set aside more for the future, especially in the absence of emergency savings, others—particularly those closer to the poverty line—might unintentionally sacrifice present well-being for an uncertain future. Through sidecar savings initiatives and employer collaborations, Nest is investigating ways to improve short-term financial stability without undermining long-term retirement planning. A significant part of the conversation also centers on Nest's role in sustainable investing. The organization has embedded ESG principles directly into its default investment strategies—not as niche options, but as a core part of its offering. From renewable energy and infrastructure to affordable housing and UK enterprise investment, Nest Invest is demonstrating that doing well financially need not come at the cost of doing good. The returns, as Fawcett notes, have been competitive, underscoring the false dichotomy between performance and purpose. This episode offers not only a powerful vision of inclusive finance but also actionable insights for policymakers, investors, and employers seeking to build systems that foster dignity, stability, and opportunity for all.

There is perhaps no subject matter more controversial than the varied opinions amongst 'scholars' and lay-people alike concerning the Christian Bible.  Is it historical to be taken literal or allegorical wherein characters & events represent abstract ideas or moral principles?  And what of the political cherry-picking of the Vatican or the likes of King James whose biblical makeover justified tighter reigns over his Earthly kingdom.  The significant time lapse between alleged historical events and the actual transcribing of those events through the 'inspired' pens of scriptural authors adds more fuel to the celestial fires.  An examination of the Alphabet in Genesis through the mathematical lens of Stan Tenen adds a Toroidal twist into the mix, but don't forget the monumental work of Anatoly T. Fomenko that casts shade on any timeline, Biblical or otherwise. Enter the את Cepher Bible.  Dr. Stephen Pidgeon, the founder, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Cepher Publishing Group, LLC is our esteemed guest on this very special Alfacast.  Is there more to the story of Creation?  Why are there no books from the 4000:14 years between the old and new testaments?  It is Dr. Stephen's contention that the bible is incomplete, while contemporary western bible editors have either removed or intentionally left out key components altogether. The Cepher is a comprehensive restoration of sacred scripture that answers these questions and many more, Some topics include Enoch jubilees & Jasher that expound upon the history of mankind and the real reason for Noah's flood, with further explanations of how the world will look as we draw nearer to the return of the Messiah.  Each of these books and the rest of the 87 books included in the Cepher have been thoroughly researched and stood the test of time providing missing pieces of the puzzle that generations have been seeking for thousands of years painting an even more vivid picture of the creator's love for us, and publishing his true Hebraic Yahuwah. Dr. Pidgeon is a student of many languages, including Greek, Hebrew, Russian, French, Spanish and Italian. An avid reader and author, he has published over 30 books. Additionally, he is an accomplished musician, with a degree in Piano Performance. He has produced several CDs featuring originally composed music for piano solo.
