Being a CEO dentist doesn't have to mean fewer patients. It means leading your business as intentionally as you are clinically. Kiera gives specific tips on how you, as a dental practice owner, can shift your mindset so you're operating like a CEO and your practice is humming. Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: Kiera (00:00) Hello, Dental A Team listeners. This is Kiera. And today we're just gonna kind of like jump right into it. I hope it's an amazing day over there. And I hope, as you're listening, today this is going out to our dentist owners. and I think that a lot of dentists actually own a practice, but very few of them actually run it like a CEO. Is that fair? Would you agree? Would you not? what do you think? What do you think about that? Do you feel like that is   And the way you'll know if you're running it like a CEO or if you're just being owned by it is do you feel trapped in your business or do you feel in control of your business? And I think I want to just kick this off because there are times, and I will tell you, once you hit one or the other, that's not forever. That state is not a forever state. So just because you might be there today doesn't mean you'll forever be there. So if you're trapped, great news, you won't always be there. If you're if you're feeling in control, great, you're not always going to be there either. But   The goal is like being a CEO dentist doesn't mean that you're actually having to see fewer patients. It's about leading your business as intentionally as you are clinically. And being the leader of that, being the person who actually is setting the tone and being a CEO. And I think when I started my business, I didn't know what a CEO was. I did not know the difference between like owning a business and managing a business. Like I just thought you worked in it. but I think when I started looking at if I left tomorrow for two months, excluding your dentistry.   Could my team function? Could my practice continue to grow? Do I have systems? Do I have processes? Do I have things in place to where I could do that? If the answer is no, then great, you're still managing your practice. If it is yes, then great, you're sipping into that CEO role. Does your team have the playbooks? Do they have that? And so today I just kind of want to dig into like a CEO Dentist playbook of like, how can you lead a practice that grows without you? I will say this is tricky. Like you still need to be the CEO, you still need to have a vision, but I think it's a lot of pieces will be on mindset shifts that we're able to have.   what you can possibly do differently. And then like what are some habits that you can do to grow to have growth, profitability, and freedom. Now again, this is if you want to. You don't I also think some people get into this weird black and white. Like if it's this, it's that, or if I don't do this or I do do that. I hate when I say do do. Guys, you just heard it come through. but I hate when you don't have to have it just be black and white. All right. You don't have to have it where it's all or nothing. There can be an and   You can be a great clinician and be a CEO. You can be a CEO and you can still be in your practice. You can step out of your practice. We just want to make sure that you are not just being a clinician. And if you want to, that's fine. But just make sure we have a CEO of your business. So know thyself and be free, I think is where it is. and if you want to look and think and lead like a CEO, these might be some great tips for you of some mindset shifts and what we what we should go through to help.   The CEO Dentist focus on where your focus should be, what things you can prioritize. So even if today it feels impossible, at least you have a roadmap of how to get there. So number one, as a CEO, you own the vision, not every task. And I think that's a bold statement. Own the vision, not every task. Your job is not to do everything, your job is to create the direction. And this feels weird to me. This especially like dental assistant turned CEO. That's a weird shift. So you better believe I was the girl who did everything.   My job is to look 10 steps ahead of my doctor. I'm supposed to be on point. I'm supposed to be doing these pieces. To have now an assistant who I'm like, hey, I need you looking 10 steps ahead of me. Where am I at? Like what things are coming down the line? That's weird. It's a weird shift for me. and but just helping you see like your job as a CEO is to own the vision. And most of the time you walk out of meetings without tasks. Now, if you are having tasks, that's okay, but make sure that they're truly CEO tasks that only you can do. And usually they tie to vision.   Profit culture. That's pretty much, and sometimes it will be like leading edge of a new initiative. So if you're wanting to build out a surgery center in your business, you're probably gonna be doing that right alongside with it, with your with your office manager. So what it looks like when it's broken and you are not owning the vision, and every task is coming to you is team constantly asks you what to do. You priorities are changing weekly, doctors making every decision or a lot of the decisions, like what toys are we buying for the toy box?   when should we schedule lunch? When should we have this person in? That means like you're still doing a lot of this, you're still managing your business, you're not leading and guiding it. So, like what a CEO dentist would do is you set a clear vision. This is where we're headed, this is where we're going. You have the priorities, this is what's happening in the next three months, and then you communicate what success looks like. So you see how there's a shift. The daily tasks are still getting done. You can still oversee them. You still have a manager who you meet with.   But you're not the one doing this. You're not stamping off on that. And I will tell you, it's a really awkward, it's really weird, but it's very freeing. And ultimately what it does is it also like we're doing a mastermind talking about Dan Martell's buy back your time. And that one we've got to just make sure we figure it out. And we like when you buy back your time, I look at my tasks and I think if I can have anybody do this task for less than four X what my hourly rate is, I need to do it.   And I need to push myself into my own comfort zone. And I need to be working on things that I can't also like right now. The projects I'm working on, like I can I can do my own confirmation calls, I could book my own travel, like I could stamp off on where team members are going and PTO and like lots of people can do that. What people can't do in our company is figure out where the next level of Dental A Team is going. And I that's my job. That's what I'm paid to do. That is literally Kiera's job. I still podcast with you guys, I still hang out, like.   Other people can podcast, these are things that I really enjoy. But I've simplified it down. I only block this much time in my calendar. So I have much more of my time that's dedicated to building our company. No one else is doing that. I'm literally the only person that does it. So for you to go from solving daily problems to leading the quarterly planning, leading team priorities, having the team become proactive and less dependent on you. So that would be what success looks like. So that's building a leadership team. We love to do this. We help build leadership teams. We help you to run your quarterly meetings and   Set up those rocks and teach the team how they're able to drive and influence rather than being dependent on the doctor. You're still there. You still get to help them. You still get to influence them. You still get to mentor them. Those pieces are going to be great for you. So what happens here is teams actually need you to be the lighthouse. And my team told me this. They said, Kiera, I know you want to be in the weeds with us, but we actually need you to be the lighthouse of like where the heck are we going? Because none of us can see that. And without your guidance and your direction, we're all going to be lost. And like   I like shirk over here. To me, that sometimes doesn't feel as good because I can't check a check mark. And I know that sounds so ridiculous. And I think that sometimes this is why people do sit in the day-to-day manager rather than into the visionary CEO seat because the day-to-day tasks feel good. Having the like I'm just gonna call myself out. This is speaking to Kiera. I'm having an intervention with myself over here. This is where I am wanting to be important.   me stamping off on things makes me feel like I have control. Me telling a team what to do, there's so many people that report to me. That's a freaking ego. My team does not need that. Do you know how many great leaders and managers I have in my team? They do not need me. I do not need to be stamping off on everything. Now, do we have a maturing team right now? Absolutely. Do we have a lot of like I feel like we shook the snow globe based on where we're headed? Absolutely. But that doesn't mean it's a forever seat for me. It's a temporary, it's an interim, and I know that they know that. So it's sitting there just in the interim.   and so what I would do for this is help your team feel empowered, where we can we move you to what are the three goals for the practice? What are the quarterly plans? Who's responsible, not the dentist? And then questions that come to a doctor. I want you to truly start asking, like, is this something only I can do? And if so, solve it. And if not, start delegating and having empowering your team to do it. This will help you. This is going to have it. So   That's CEO shift number one. Number two, I would say know your numbers that drive your business. and this I've talked about, I've harped on, there's so many podcasts on this. I just want you to know your performance. So you've got to look at your numbers before things feel wrong. You need to know numbers beyond production, and you need to make decisions on those numbers always. You gotta be looking at your KPI scorecard, your overhead, your PL. And every single month minimum, you are looking at like be the CFO. Like,   A CEO works with a CFO, and until you're large enough, you need to know these numbers forward and backwards. Your office manager should be preparing them, you should be looking at them, but you have got to know the numbers of your business. I'm not saying you need to be the one who preps all the reports, but you have to know what's going on. So that way you're able to see, are we making money? Are we not making money? And I think so many dentists get into this hustle and bustle of like, I'm just gonna go produce, produce, produce. And I'm like, Do you realize that if you just spent a little bit of that production time on looking at your numbers, you would actually be able to know.   rather than guess. You would be able to work less and create more. And so I just really think for you to start shifting. So number one is you got to set the vision and the culture and you got to have your team do it. You set the priorities, you define that where we're going and you communicate what success looks like. You're not solving every decision. Next step is you're using your numbers to make every single decision and you're having a monthly meeting on numbers. Money monthly meeting there you go money monthly meeting and you know what it is.   You know your numbers today, forward and backward. You know what your overhead is. You know where we're spending more, you know where we're spending less. You know what your profit margins are, and you know what you need to produce to cover all your expenses, including paying yourself. You need to review that every single month at a minimum. Set it up with your CPA, force yourself. Like that's what I do. I have a meeting with my CPA. I don't really need to talk to them, but that's Kiera's time where it forces me to look at the numbers, to review where I'm at, to make sure that I'm making decisions based on that. And then the third thing is going from an operator to an owner.   Is you've got to have leaders and systems so there's less dependency on you. so if we lucked again, I think about myself like if I were to leave, what things are gonna break in two months? That's where we start with those systems and that scalability. and what am I going to put into play? What am I going to do? What is going to happen? Like, where is this going to get resolved? And we start having those systems and those people built into those leadership spots.   So I really want to make sure that you guys have that of this is where it's the systems, the structure and the scalability. And I think the Dental A Team does such a good job of this. Like we know the systems to put into place for you. Like they're very basic, they're very minimal. Most things can get resolved. We have decision trees that are in there. We help your leaders look at the numbers so they know how to make the decisions too while you're gone. And this way it continues to grow and there's no more dependency upon you. You can truly step away. So   If you have this, I think that oftentimes doctors and office managers are firefighters and it's like, my gosh, care, I'm so exhausted and everything's coming to me. And it's like, okay, great, we're gonna make a list of everything coming to you. We're gonna chunk those into like what categories do they fit into. Then from there, we're gonna figure out who should be the owner of this, what protocols need to go into place, and what systems could reduce this. That way, when you go, then what we typically do is we recommend that you do actually schedule like a two-week, like start there.   vacation where you're going to be gone and the practice is still going to operate. And we want to just see what breaks. We're going to do the same thing for our office manager because we want to be able to make sure that this practice can truly start to function without you. Now, again, I get to a spot and I'm like, I'm on this path and I want to be the CEO of it, and I don't want to be there every day where I have to be there. And then I actually like achieve it. And I'm like, my gosh, who is Kiera? What is it like? What is my life if this doesn't happen? And what's   What's my own like what's my purpose? And I think this is where a lot of people get trapped in the cycle of your purpose is not to be doing tasks. Your purpose, like they still need you to set the vision. It's not something I can ever stamp off and say, I've done this, this, and this. I can't stamp a check mark on a vision. I can't step a check mark on a culture. Those things are almost like these soft skills, like they're they're soft. Like I can say I have a vision, I can say I have a mission statement. I can say we have a great culture. I do check, check, check.   But ultimately they're intangibles. They're things that people feel. They're things that people experience. And honestly, when I get to a point where I'm like, wow, the business can run without me. Sometimes I go in and I create chaos because I want to be needed. And I want to just caution you that as you're going to this, whiplashing a team can actually be so detrimental to them. Sending them on, like, I want to be here. But then you come in and you undercut everybody. This is me talking to myself. I'm sure none of you do this. So sorry, Dental A Team.   I do it. And it's I have to recognize that that's ego. That's not serving anybody, including myself. It's not serving my team. So if I have great leaders, which I do, I've got an amazing leadership team. But if I constantly go in and I'm answering questions in Slack and I'll calm myself out on this of like, that was wrong. That's not my place to overstep. And I need to connect in with the leader. you can have the best of intentions, but if you're not willing to let leaders grow, you're not willing to truly want to be the CEO, don't   Preach it unless you actually are going to execute on it. You can have sluts like small setbacks, but you need to own it. You need to call yourself out and you need to move forward and your team needs to be able to trust you and have confidence with you. These are pieces that are non-negotiable for me. You have to check yourself and recognize that there's an ego that's chirping in the background, that's chirping. It's loud, it's annoying. It wants you to do all these things, but that doesn't mean that that's right. It doesn't mean that you should do that. It means that you have a chirpy ego that needs to zip it and you need to be the CEO.   You need to trust your leaders. 80% of them doing it is better than 100% of you doing it. So when you look at this for this, what are kind of the steps of you owning the vision, not every single task, you knowing the numbers of your business and making decisions based on that? And then making sure you're truly building leaders and systems that reduce dependency on you and you truly are stepping into that CEO seat, you're trusting and empowering your leaders to do it. They can do it. Develop the leaders, create accountability and build systems for consistency. And if you struggle there,   Reach out. That's what we're good at. We do this. We help you build the fundamentals for you. Get the vision in place. Teach you what your job description is. Call you out when you're stepping in your lane that you're not supposed to be in and say, get over there. They've got this. They can handle it. Teach your leaders how to run effective meetings, how to hold accountability lines. This is what it is. Your goal is not to be the busiest person in the practice. Your goal is to be the leader that helps your practice thrive and truly helps them and gets out of their freaking way.   I'm thinking about a doctor right now, and this doctor says they want to be the CEO. They say they're not growing. They're at the office all the time. And I'm like, you've got a leadership team, but you get in their way. You want the chaos. You don't get out of there. You live in this chaos day in, day out. That's your emotional home, and you go there because it's comfortable for you. You have to start doing things differently if you want a different life. So this is a call out to all of you. If you really want to be the CEO of your practice, you've got to own that step out and get out of their way and get your   chirpy ego to zip their lips. You've got to change how you lead. You've got to change how you're working. You've got to change the priorities you're doing. It's awkward. It's uncomfortable. I've surely sat in bed a few times and cried and been like, my team doesn't even need me. And then I like wipe my tears and I get up and I'm like, you will never say that again and you're going to move forward because they do need you. They just don't need you to do every task for them. I'm not an operator. I'm an owner of this business. My job is to lead.   To guide, to mentor, and to be the one who is sharp and to create the space, to give me the space to dream, to figure out the next layer, to read the books, to move into the next evolution of growth. That's my job. No one else is doing that. And that's your job as well. So if you feel like your practice can't function without you, maybe it's time to step into the CEO role and like let's be more intentional and let's get them to be able to function without you. Next level of growth is gonna come from changing how you lead, not how hard you work. So.   If you're ready to change, reach out. Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. Come to webinars or whatever it is, but make the change now. Commit to that. And your CEO role can look very different.

In this solo episode, Bradley Hamner makes the case for the Socratic method as a team development tool. He opens with an analogy. A person drowning in the water needs a rope, not a question about how they ended up there. There are moments when a team member needs the answer handed to them, and moments when the better move is to draw the answer out of them.Bradley walks through what skilled questioning looks like in practice, including Dan Martell's one, three, one method and the questions he used during a performance improvement plan conversation six months ago. He shares two situations where digging past surface behavior changed the outcome, and explains why the person asking the questions is the one in control of the conversation.This conversation moves past scripts and into curiosity. When was the last time you dug more than an inch deep with someone on your team? Do you know enough about where your people came from to understand how they see the work? And are you coaching everyone the same way when they each need to be met where they are?

¿Tienes un producto bueno de verdad y aun así no consigues suficientes clientes? Esa es la forma más común en la que mueren los negocios, y casi nadie mira el motivo real. En este episodio resumo Tracción (Traction, 2015), de Gabriel Weinberg (fundador de DuckDuckGo) y Justin Mares, un método construido a partir de entrevistar a más de 40 fundadores que sí lograron hacer crecer su negocio con método, no con suerte. Weinberg lo vivió en sus propias carnes: después de vender una empresa por millones, montó DuckDuckGo y se peleó meses por posicionarse número uno en Google para una frase que solo buscaban 50 personas al día, cuando necesitaba 5.000. De ese fracaso nace la idea de que la tracción, la señal de que tu negocio funciona de verdad, manda por encima de todo lo demás. Te cuento la regla del 50% (mitad de tu tiempo al producto, mitad a conseguir clientes, desde el primer día), el método del bullseye para encontrar entre 19 canales posibles el único que de verdad te va a funcionar, y por qué los canales que tu competencia ignora suelen ser tu mejor ventaja. En este episodio vas a llevarte: ✅ La regla del 50%: por qué tienes que trabajar producto y clientes a la vez, no uno detrás del otro ✅ El cubo con agujeros: cómo leer las fugas de clientes como información, no como fracaso ✅ El método bullseye: los tres anillos para encontrar tu único canal de crecimiento entre 19 posibles ✅ Por qué el canal que tu competencia evita puede ser tu mayor ventaja competitiva ✅ El camino crítico: la herramienta para decidir, sobre todo, qué NO vas a hacer Este episodio cierra el bloque de cuatro semanas que he llamado Sistemas de Negocio, después de haber visto Recupera tu Tiempo de Dan Martell la semana anterior. Primero ordenamos el negocio por dentro, y con Tracción cerramos mirando hacia fuera: cómo hacerlo crecer con clientes reales.

¿Trabajas más horas cada año y aun así sientes que tu negocio no te suelta? Hay un momento exacto en el que crecer empieza a doler, y la mayoría de emprendedores reacciona mal cuando llega ahí. En este episodio resumimos Buy Back Your Time (Recupera tu tiempo, 2023), de Dan Martell, un emprendedor canadiense que pasó de estar en la cárcel a los 17 años a dirigir un negocio de ocho cifras trabajando muy pocas horas a la semana. La tesis del libro es que la mayoría de emprendedores no se ahogan por trabajar poco, sino por no tener sistemas para recuperar su tiempo. Martell explica el "punto de dolor": ese momento, normalmente entre los 12 y 14 empleados o alrededor del millón de facturación, en el que crecer empieza a doler más de lo que podemos soportar. Y cuando llega ese dolor, casi todos hacemos lo mismo: vendemos el negocio por desesperación, lo saboteamos sin darnos cuenta o decidimos estancarnos para siempre. La buena noticia es que hay una cuarta salida: auditar tu tiempo, calcular cuánto vale tu hora y empezar a comprar de vuelta las tareas que te drenan, para invertir ese tiempo en lo que sí te genera dinero y energía a la vez. En este episodio vas a llevarte: ✅ Qué es el punto de dolor y por qué ningún emprendedor puede crecer hacia más dolor ✅ La matriz DRIP para clasificar tus tareas según el dinero y la energía que te dan ✅ Cómo calcular tu factor de recompra para saber cuánto vale delegar cada tarea ✅ Los cinco asesinos del tiempo que te mantienen enganchado al caos ✅ La escalera del reemplazo: el orden exacto para ir soltando tu negocio sin que se caiga Este es el segundo episodio del bloque de sistemas de negocio: la semana pasada vimos Quién No Cómo, de Dan Sullivan y Ben Hardy, la idea de mentalidad que sostiene todo este sistema.

Quick SummaryNicole Crone — co-founder of My Aligned Purpose and host of a podcast with over 600 episodes — joins Rain or Shine for a candid conversation about becoming a mom at 40 after years of not wanting kids, surviving a two-year fertility journey, and navigating one of the hardest eight-week stretches her business has faced. Along the way, she shares the systems, mindset tools, and rituals that keep her grounded — from "duvet days" to yearly word-of-the-year necklaces.In This EpisodeNicole's go-to rituals for decompressing after an overloaded weekHow she uses Claude and Cowork to organize her to-do list into an Eisenhower MatrixHer lifelong love of learning — human design, astrology, Kabbalah, and yogaThe surprising vision that changed her mind about wanting kidsA two-year fertility journey, including a pregnancy loss, and what it taught her about compassion and timingWhat she wishes she'd known about postpartum boundaries as an entrepreneurNavigating the hardest eight weeks in her business's six-and-a-half-year historyHer personal toolkit for processing hard emotions (solo drives, audiobooks, trusted masterminds)Her philosophy on what to share publicly versus keep private as a personal brandWhy My Aligned Purpose builds yearly themes, challenges, and rewards into its coaching programsKey TakeawaysName what your nervous system needs, and ask for it. Vocalizing a specific need — like a full "duvet day" with zero plans — is more restorative than defaulting to "productive" rest.Trust doesn't mean things happen on your timeline. Nicole's fertility journey taught her that "the universe delivers when you know what you want and why you want it" — but not necessarily on schedule.Take the time off you think you don't need. Plan for real postpartum (or any major life transition) downtime rather than assuming you'll want to keep working — you likely won't, and you'll regret cutting it short.Process alone before you process out loud. Solo time (a drive, a cry, a walk) before bringing a hard situation to trusted people helps you find your own direction before outside opinions can sway it.Build structure your community can buy into. Yearly themes, challenges, and rewards — borrowed straight from a teaching background — deepen engagement and retention in a business or program.Memorable Quotes"It's like it does feel really big right now, but it's not going to feel really big if I decide that it's not gonna take any more of my focus, and energy, and attention.""As Dan Martell says, '80% done by somebody else is 100% awesome.'"Resources MentionedNicole's Website: myalignedpurpose.comPodcast: My Aligned Purpose PodcastInstagram: @myalignedpurposeKelsey's Website: KelseyReidl.comKelsey's Instagram: @KelseyReidlTime as a Tool — Benjamin Hardy10x Is Easier Than 2x — Benjamin HardyWho Not HowHuman Design, astrology, numerology, Kabbalah (as ongoing personal studies)Claude + Cowork (for task organization via the Eisenhower Matrix)Melanie Auld (Vancouver-based jewelry brand, for the annual "word of the year" necklaces)Dan Martell (quoted concept: "80% done by somebody else is 100% awesome")About the GuestNicole Crone is the co-founder of My Aligned Purpose, a coaching and educational company she runs alongside business partner Kayla, and host of the My Aligned Purpose Podcast (600+ episodes).

Then she hands you three questions to decide your own path.Here's what you'll take away:- Why you can't have time freedom and financial freedom at the same time, and the middle season where you trade one for the other- What "hiring up" means: every hire has to remove a responsibility entirely, not just reduce it- The three questions to answer before you build: what you want in three years, what you're willing to trade, and what season you're inThe FREE Assume Sales Training: 2x your wedding bookings in 30 days, step by step.

Episode Overview: Learning to hire the right people is the difference between a business that depends on you forever and one that runs without you. In this episode, John Kitchens sits down with Georgia Tusch, a top-producing realtor and team leader at Twiss Real Estate Group in Ontario, to unpack her journey from solo agent to CEO. Georgia shares the hiring lessons that took her team from chaos to scale, why she is no longer allowed anywhere near her own onboarding process, and how storytelling through video became the engine behind her brand. If you are still doing everything yourself, this episode is your reminder that you do not have to. Topics Covered: From Part-Time Agent to Full-Time CEO Georgia started in real estate young, learned the business the hard way selling farms with no real social media to lean on, and eventually rebuilt her career after stepping away during a difficult personal season. The turning point came when she stopped treating real estate as a side hustle and started running it like a business. The Hiring Mistake Most Team Leaders Make Georgia's first hire, an admin, doubled her business almost overnight simply by taking paperwork off her plate. The advice that stuck: hire someone who is the opposite of you, someone you would not necessarily go have a drink with. That admin has been with her for four years. Georgia's take: you do not have to already know how to hire the right people, you just have to be willing to let go of the paperwork first. Building a Gold Standard Hiring Process Early on, Georgia hired whoever reached out and wanted to be on her team, with no real vetting against values or mission. It worked for a while, until toxicity crept in and those hires were not aligned with what she needed. Rebuilding around a real hiring process, one that actually screens for fit before anyone gets close to being onboarded, changed everything. Her biggest lesson: you cannot hire the right people by accident. It takes a real process, real vetting, and a willingness to say no. Why Georgia Is Banned From Her Own Onboarding Georgia is a chronic optimist who believes the best in everyone, which made her a liability in her own hiring process. John told her team directly that if Georgia is part of onboarding, it will not work. Today she is not involved until the final handshake, and her team runs the process from start to finish. Finding the Right People for the Right Seats One of Georgia's most valuable hires came from an unexpected place: the gym industry. Her head of ISA had spent years cold-calling for a local gym, and that phone-heavy background made her a natural fit for outbound sales. Within months she was not just hitting her own numbers, she was pulling the rest of the team up with her, eventually growing into a role overseeing accountability across the whole team. Georgia says the lesson applies past sales: you do not hire the right people by finding a perfect resume, you hire the right people by finding the strengths your team is missing and building the role around them. Storytelling as a Marketing Superpower From a half-burnt house to a four million dollar log cabin, Georgia believes every listing has a story worth telling. Her latest idea: filming her nephews exploring a cabin property like it is their clubhouse, instead of another standard walkthrough video. Buy Back Your Time: The 80% Rule Drawing on Dan Martell's Buy Back Your Time, John and Georgia talk about hiring to reclaim time, not just to grow, and why a team member getting something to 80% of your standard is still 100% awesome. Why Hiring the Right People Changes Everything Every part of Georgia's growth traces back to one decision: hiring the right people and getting out of their way. Once she stopped being the bottleneck, her team started running processes she never could have scaled alone, freeing her up to focus on brand, marketing, and the next builder relationship. Team leaders who take hiring the right people seriously are the ones who eventually get to stop trading their time for every dollar their business makes.

Consistency beats intensity is one of the most powerful themes that emerged after interviewing over a thousand high performers—comedians, bestselling authors, athletes, entrepreneurs, and billionaires—across Travis's podcasts. In this solo episode, Travis breaks down why daily, undramatic action creates durable success, drawing on stories from guests like Jerry Seinfeld, Brian Callen, Dan Fleyshman, Dan Martell, and Jason Witten, plus research on habit formation and mastery. He explains how to pair consistency with feedback-rich improvement so you don't end up with “one year of experience, twenty years in a row.” On this episode we talk about: Why “consistency beats intensity” across careers and industries. Jerry Seinfeld's calendar streak method for writing at least one joke a day. Brian Callen's belief that showing up daily is more important than hustling hard in short bursts. Dan Fleyshman's decades-long habit of daily outreach to compound his network. Dan Martell's caveat: consistency plus feedback and improvement versus stagnant repetition. Research on how habits actually form over 18–254 days, not the popular “21 days.” John D. Rockefeller's “one drop of solder” story and the power of tiny, repeated optimizations. Travis's own journey of sticking with podcasting through doubt and slow seasons. A 30–66 day challenge to build trust in yourself by keeping one simple daily promise. Top 3 Takeaways Daily showing up beats sporadic grinding. Long-term winners reject hustle-culture sprints followed by burnout and instead rely on small, consistent actions repeated over years. Consistency must be paired with improvement. Without a feedback-rich environment and clear targets, you risk “one year of experience, twenty years in a row” instead of true mastery. Tiny actions compound into massive results. Whether it's one joke a day, three to five daily outreach messages, or one drop of solder on millions of cans, small efforts plus time create disproportionate outcomes. Notable Quotes “Consistency beats random spouts of intensity.” “Consistency is more important than hard work. Showing up every day is really the secret.” – Brian Callen “The most common thing in the world today is somebody that's consistent and has no results. One year of experience, 20 years in a row.” – Dan Martell “You can't cheat the muse.” – Jason Witten Connect with Travis: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/travis-chappell Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/travischappell Other: https://travischappell.com A Word from Our Sponsors: - Visit DrinkAG1.com/TMM to get a free AG1 Travel Case with 7 free AG1Travel Packs in your Welcome Kit with your first AG1 subscription order while supplies last. - Go to Leesa.com for 25% OFF select mattresses (through July 26, 2026) PLUS get an extra $50 off with promo code TMM, exclusive for my listeners  - To learn more about Mode Mobile and its investor community, go to https://invest.modemobile.com/travismakesmoney -Travis Makes Money is made possible by High Level – the All-In-One Sales & Marketing Platform built for agencies, by an agency.Capture leads, nurture them, and close more deals—all from one powerful platform.Get an extended free trial at gohighlevel.com/travis Learn more about your ad choices.

What if the life you want isn't waiting for luck to find you, but for you to become the person who can attract it? In this mashup episode, I bring together some of my favorite conversations about one of the most misunderstood concepts in personal growth: attraction. I'm not talking about wishful thinking or hoping the universe magically hands you your dreams. I'm talking about becoming the kind of person whose mindset, habits, standards, and energy naturally pull the right opportunities, relationships, and success into your life. Ryan Pineda, Lewis Howes, Jay Shetty, Dan Martell, Tom Bilyeu, and I dive into what it really takes to create a life that reflects your highest potential instead of your biggest fears. Ryan Pineda and I unpack why discomfort is often the greatest advantage you'll ever have. We discuss why success isn't about escaping hard work, but learning to love the process of becoming. Lewis Howes and I explore confidence, intention, and why the promises you keep to yourself ultimately shape the person you become. Jay Shetty reminds us that greatness isn't measured by how many people know your name. It's measured by how many lives you impact through service. Every one of these conversations reinforces the same truth. The person you become is far more important than the things you accumulate. Dan Martell and I talk about becoming "the one" who changes the trajectory of your family and your future. We discuss how the mistakes you're most ashamed of may actually become the greatest qualification you have to help someone else. Tom Bilyeu and I break down why time is one of your greatest assets and how intentionally designing your days allows you to create extraordinary momentum. Throughout these conversations, I also share the three step mental routine that has transformed my own life by helping me focus on what I want instead of what I fear. I truly believe you were born to do something extraordinary with your life. The challenge is that too many people spend their lives operating from old conditioning, fear, and limiting beliefs instead of intention and possibility. When you begin to change your thoughts, raise your standards, and intentionally pursue the emotions and life you truly desire, everything around you begins to change. The opportunities were always there. You simply become the person capable of seeing them. Key Takeaways: • Why your thoughts become the currency you use to purchase your future • Ryan Pineda on embracing discomfort as the foundation for long term success • Lewis Howes on building confidence by keeping the promises you make to yourself • Jay Shetty's reminder that serving others is one of the fastest paths to living a meaningful life • Dan Martell on becoming the person who changes your family's future and why your greatest struggles often become your greatest strengths • Tom Bilyeu's practical strategies for mastering time and creating momentum every single day • Why intention, repetition, and environment shape the life you ultimately attract • How changing who you are on the inside transforms what becomes possible on the outside You are far closer to the life you want than you think. One decision, one new belief, one courageous action, and one more intentional day can completely change your future. I hope this episode reminds you that you were never meant to live an average life. You were born to do something great, and that journey begins with the person you choose to become today.

If your sales calls feel harder than they should, your pricing feels wrong the second someone asks about it, or your offer just does not feel like it belongs to you, this episode names exactly why. Adam Roach and Jess Webber sit down for episode two of a five-part series on ownership, this time turning the lens on the offer itself.Adam opens with a confession. When he coached with Dan Martell, he memorized, internalized, and personalized a model that was not his own, and it wore him out. Jess pushes it further and points out Adam did the same thing when he first built I Love Coaching Co, modeling another coaching company's business model before the two of them sat down and built something that actually matched his vision. That distinction between rip-off and duplicate (what they used to call R&D) and something built from your own lived experience runs through the entire conversation.They walk through what an unowned offer actually costs a coach. It is harder to sell. Harder to sustain. Harder to scale. And it is harder to price correctly, because coaches running someone else's borrowed model tend to price themselves instead of the outcome they deliver, and they almost always price too low. Jess compares it to wearing somebody else's shoes: the fit is just wrong, and everyone around you can tell.What You'll LearnHow to tell the difference between an offer you built and one you R&D'd (rip-off and duplicate) from someone who workedWhy the urge to lower your price the moment it feels uncomfortable is usually a sign your offer isn't yours, not a sign your price is wrongWhy clients who succeed through a borrowed model don't create the same retention and stickiness as clients who succeed through something you builtWhy most coaches are carrying too many features, bonuses, and add-ons on their offer, and what to strip away insteadWhy people are paying for the how you got the outcome, not a how-to to get the outcomeWhy clarity, not cleverness, is what actually sells an offerThe Big IdeaAn offer that isn't fully yours will always cost you more than it should, in energy, in pricing confidence, in client retention, and in how hard you have to work to explain it. Building your own offer from your own vision, even if it takes longer than borrowing someone else's, is what makes selling, sustaining, and scaling actually possible.Notable Quote"People are paying for the how you got the outcome, not a how-to to get the outcome." — Jess WebberResources MentionedSellable Offer Challenge: ilovecoachingco.com/challengeREAL Coach Method Membership: ilovecoachingco.com/discoverILC community: ilovecoachingco.comInstagram: @ilovecoachingco / @adamrroach / @coachjesswebberYouTube: youtube.com/@ilovecoachingcoJoin the CommunityReady to build a coaching offer you can stand behind and price with confidence?

Most entrepreneurs focus on scaling their company through better marketing, stronger systems, and smarter strategy. But there's another growth lever that's often overlooked: your own physical performance. In this episode, Charles Gaudet sits down with transformation coach Alan Dyck, whose remarkable journey from 371 pounds to elite fitness has helped thousands of entrepreneurs, CEOs, and high performers improve not only their health, but also the way they lead their businesses. Together, they explore why founders should think of themselves as intellectual athletes, how energy and discipline influence every business decision, and why the habits that create an elite body often create an elite company. Alan also shares the simple daily routines he uses with high-performing entrepreneurs, including Dan Martell and other business leaders, to build sustainable energy, increase confidence, and create lasting transformation. KEY TAKEAWAYS:  Why founders should think of themselves as intellectual athletes whose physical health directly impacts business performance.   The hidden connection between energy, decision-making, leadership, and company growth.   Why discipline in your personal life often translates into stronger execution inside your business.   How confidence created through better health changes the way clients, employees, and partners perceive you.   The simple daily habits Alan recommends to dramatically improve energy, focus, and consistency.   Why eating shortly after waking, proper hydration, and consistent nutrition play a larger role in performance than most entrepreneurs realize.   The importance of building non-negotiable routines that remove decision fatigue and create long-term success.   Why consistency—not perfection—is the foundation of both physical transformation and business growth.   How building a personal brand through daily content helped Alan grow from roughly 500 followers to hundreds of thousands across social platforms.   The three business principles Alan credits for his own growth: consistency, visibility, and relationships.  RESOURCES MENTIONED:  Coach Alan Dyck on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachalandyck   Alan Dyck Fitness App: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/alan-dyck/id6755105207  Growing your business is hard, but it doesn't have to be.

Dan Martell is a serial entrepreneur, investor, and bestselling author known for helping founders scale businesses without sacrificing their lives. After building and selling multiple software companies, including Clarity.fm, Dan became one of the leading voices on productivity, delegation, and operational excellence. In this solo episode, Travis breaks down the biggest lessons he learned from his conversation with Dan—from hiring smarter to separating your identity from your business. On this episode we talk about: Why entrepreneurs should hire to buy back their time—not just increase capacity The Buyback Loop: audit, transfer, and fill your calendar with high-impact work How tying your self-worth to your business can lead to burnout and poor decision-making Why mentors often provide better guidance than family for major entrepreneurial decisions The difference between being consistent and consistently improving Top 3 Takeaways Hire strategically to reclaim your time. Delegate lower-value tasks so you can focus on the work only you can do to grow your business. Don't let your business define your identity. Your company is something you build—not who you are—and separating the two creates resilience through inevitable setbacks. Consistency is only the starting point. Long-term success comes from consistently learning, adapting, and improving—not simply showing up. Notable Quotes "Stop hiring for capacity. Hire to buy back your time." "The business isn't me. It is a thing that I do, not who I am." "Consistency without results is just comfortable failure."

Most of us raise our kids on autopilot, doing what our family always did without ever asking why. But here's what I've come to believe: how you raise your kids isn't about the culture you grew up in, it's about what you actually stand for. So if you want to parent on purpose instead of by default, this one's for you. In this episode, you'll learn: Why what you stand for matters more than what your family has always done Why giving kids money can ruin them How to be the example that teaches your kids to bet on themselves Why real confidence is built with strangers, not friends ✅ Want our free Couple's Playbook?

Todos los dueños deberían poder tomarse cuatro semanas de vacaciones al año, completamente desconectados, sin celular, sin correo, y que la empresa siga creciendo. Así lo dice Mike Michalowicz en Clockwork y cuando lo leímos pensamos que estaba loco. Pero lo pusimos en práctica, raza, y hoy nos tomamos mínimo diez semanas de vacaciones al año.En este episodio te contamos cómo lo hicimos, sin filtros: cómo nos tomamos licencias de hasta seis meses cuando nació Pablo, cómo el trimestre que ni Dan ni yo estuvimos presentes terminó siendo el más exitoso de nuestra historia, y por qué descansar es mucho más valiente que aguantar. Hablamos de cómo aprender a delegar en tu negocio, de qué es un integrador empresarial y por qué solo el 2% de las personas puede serlo bien, y de cómo agendamos el descanso con tanta anticipación que ya sabemos qué vamos a hacer casi todos los fines de semana del año.Si sientes que tu empresa no puede funcionar sin ti, que cada vez que te desconectas algo se cae, o que la idea de tomarte vacaciones siendo dueño de negocio te genera más ansiedad que descanso, este episodio es para ti.Libros que mencionamos en el episodio:Clockwork de Mike Michalowicz, Traction y Rocket Fuel de Gino Wickman, y Buy Back Your Time de Dan Martell.

Are you running your business, or is your business running you? In this episode, Kris Krohn sits down with "time hacking ninja" and author Dan Martell to discuss how to break free from the time-for-money trap. They dive into how to emotionally disconnect from traditional ownership, leverage the power of access, and retool your calendar to achieve true personal and professional freedom.

What if the biggest thing standing between you and the life you want isn't your circumstances, but the patterns you keep repeating? In this powerful mashup episode, I bring together some of the most transformational conversations I've ever had about breaking free from the habits, beliefs, and emotional patterns that silently shape our lives. So many people think their future is determined by their past, but what you're about to hear will challenge that idea completely. From wealth creation and personal growth to healing and spiritual awareness, these conversations reveal how your life can change the moment you become conscious of the patterns you've been running and decide to create new ones. Tony Robbins shares why most people stay trapped in fear, stress, and survival mode, and how changing your state and physiology can unlock a future far bigger than your current circumstances. He breaks down why a compelling future is essential for success and why the stories we tell ourselves determine the direction of our lives. John Edward adds a powerful perspective on self-awareness and personal responsibility, explaining how recognizing the patterns that drain your energy is often the first step toward meaningful change. Gabby Bernstein opens up about the hidden emotional triggers and protective behaviors that keep so many people stuck. Together, we explore how our past experiences create unconscious reactions that continue to influence our decisions long after the original pain is gone. Dan Martell shares his incredible journey of transformation and reminds us that the very things we believe disqualify us from success are often the exact experiences that qualify us to help others and fulfill our purpose. Throughout this episode, I challenge you to stop making excuses, stop letting fear dictate your future, and start becoming intentional about the emotions, habits, and beliefs that drive your life. The truth is that every breakthrough begins with awareness. Once you recognize the patterns that have been controlling you, they lose their power. That's when real change becomes possible. If you've been feeling stuck, frustrated, or like you're capable of more than you're currently experiencing, this episode will give you the tools and perspective to break free. The life you want isn't waiting for a different version of you. It's waiting for you to finally let go of the patterns that no longer serve you and step into the person you were created to become. Key Takeaways: Why most people unknowingly live their lives through repeating emotional and behavioral patterns Tony Robbins' strategy for breaking out of fear and creating a compelling future How changing your physical state can immediately change your mental and emotional state Why awareness is the first step to eliminating destructive patterns Gabby Bernstein's insights on triggers, emotional wounds, and unconscious protective behaviors How to stop allowing past experiences to dictate future decisions John Edward's perspective on taking ownership of your energy and personal growth Dan Martell's powerful lesson that your greatest struggles may be your greatest qualification Why success requires responsibility, while excuses keep you trapped How to intentionally create new patterns that lead to abundance, peace, and fulfillment

In this episode of The Dept. Omar sits down with Dan Martell for a powerful conversation on how entrepreneurs should actually be using AI right now. If you've been feeling overwhelmed by AI, unsure which tools matter, or confused about how to apply it to your business, this episode breaks it down in a way that is practical, clear, and immediately useful. Dan shares how he thinks about AI agents, Claude, automation, content creation, lead generation, sales, and buying back your time. But more importantly, he explains what AI cannot replace: your taste, your vision, your care, your leadership, and your ability to create real value for people. If you want to stay ahead, stop overcomplicating AI, and start using it to build a smarter business, this episode is essential.

Most people see Dan Martell's highlight reel: the private jet, the millions, the AI mastery. But they don't know about the angry, ashamed teenager who felt worthless and unlovable, who attempted suicide and spent time in jail. In this episode, Lewis goes deep into Dan's journey from rock bottom to extraordinary success, unpacking the exact moment he decided not to take his own life and what shifted in his mind to make him believe he deserved love and greatness. You'll discover that redemption isn't about forgetting your past, it's about extracting the lesson and becoming someone new. Dan shares his journey of transformation, explaining that his foundation is built on faith and how he moved from repeating errors to making new ones.
