What happens when the business you built to create freedom starts feeling more like a trap? In this episode of ScaleUp Radio, Kevin Brent speaks with Simon Bird, founder of SEON, about one of the most common but least discussed challenges facing growing SME owners: the "Owner's Trap". Simon shares practical frameworks and diagnostic approaches designed to help founders step back, regain clarity, and reconnect with the purpose and direction of their business. Drawing on more than 25 years in global marketing leadership and seven years advising business owners through SEON, Simon explains why many leaders become overwhelmed as their businesses grow, and how structured thinking, visual frameworks, and better conversations can unlock progress. This conversation is packed with practical guidance for founders who feel busy, stretched, and stuck in operational complexity. In this episode: Why successful founders often become disconnected from the part of the business they originally loved The warning signs that operational pressure is beginning to affect performance and motivation Why trying to "solve" problems too quickly often creates more confusion How a "thinking partner" can help founders gain clarity and make better decisions The power of visual frameworks and metaphor to expose hidden business issues Why alignment problems inside leadership teams are often invisible until surfaced properly The importance of stepping back before jumping into strategy or restructuring How productising advisory services creates clearer value for clients Practical lessons Simon learned from building SEON from scratch Why consistent business development habits still matter, even for experienced advisers A standout insight from the episode One of the most powerful moments in the discussion is Simon's example of a husband-and-wife leadership team drawing their business as a car. One leader saw a polished, high-performing vehicle. The other saw it sitting in the garage with three wheels missing. That single exercise exposed a major operational disconnect that traditional meetings and reports had failed to uncover. It is a reminder that many business problems are not purely strategic or financial. Often, leaders are operating from completely different realities. The one key thing If your business feels harder to run than it should, resist the temptation to immediately fix symptoms. Pause first, diagnose properly, and create the space for honest thinking before choosing solutions.   Simon can be found here: https://www.seongrowth.com/ simon@seongrowth.com   Resources: The Long Game by Dorie Clark - https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/the-long-game-how-to-be-a-long-term-thinker-in-a-short-term-world-dorie-clark/6104653?ean=9781647820572&next=t

My 500th podcast episode! What began more than a decade ago has had many twists and turns, witnessed and even encouraged by someone I deeply admire: author, speaker, and longtime supporter of my work, Dorie Clark. In honor of this milestone and our long friendship, she's agreed to be the guest host as we dive into this interview. Over the past 15+ years, my business has evolved in ways I never could have predicted. I started as a recognized networking expert, became a virtual event design consultant and executive Zoom producer during the pandemic, and eventually stepped into a role Dorie suggested to me back in 2018: book launch strategist. At the time, I didn't take the idea seriously. But by 2024, it became clear this was the work I was meant to do. Today, I support entrepreneurial authors not only with the logistics of their book launch but also with strategic thinking long before the writing begins. My newest offer, the Author ROI Lab, helps authors decide whether the book they're considering is worth writing and how to ensure it delivers real business results. From building launch teams and collecting 50+ Amazon reviews to designing virtual launch parties that turn readers into prospects, my work centers on helping authors turn their books into strategic business assets. Along the way, I've built out an author resource ecosystem: this podcast, the Biz Book Pub Hub community networking events, a curated expert directory, Kindle Flash Sales, and my fourth book on book launch strategy. There's a lot to talk about, and no one better to guide this conversation than Dorie Clark.   In this episode, we discuss the following:

Why do smart, successful people feel trapped in constant busyness? In this episode, Dorie Clark — author of The Long Game — joins Kwame Christian to reveal why thinking long-term feels almost impossible in a world that rewards urgency. They explore the psychology of busyness, how scarcity rewires our decisions, and what it takes to find courage, patience, and joy in the process — even when the world keeps screaming “faster.” In this episode: Why “I'm busy” has become the new humble brag The emotional roots of scarcity and overwork How to build meaning instead of chasing more The courage required to think long-term What AI and technology mean for the future of communication Connect with Dorie ⁠dorieclark.com⁠ ⁠Buy the Book: THE LONG GAME How to Be a Long-Term Thinker in a Short-Term World⁠ Contact ANI ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Request A Customized Workshop For Your Company⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Kwame Christian on LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠negotiateanything.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click here to buy your copy of Finding Confidence in Conflict: How to Negotiate Anything and Live Your Best Life!

In this episode, Dorie Clark explains her long-game playbook about persistence, patience, and purpose in a fast-paced world. She explores the challenges of prioritizing long-term goals over daily distractions, the cultural obsession with busyness, and strategies for sustained motivation. Dorie also shares things that include saying no to good opportunities, embracing failure as a delay rather than a dead end, and breaking big goals into manageable steps. Exciting News!!

Nir Eyal: Beyond Belief Nir Eyal writes, consults, and teaches about the intersection of psychology, technology, and business. He is the author of two bestselling books, Hooked and Indistractable, selling more than a million copies and translated in over 30 languages. He is the author of the new book, Beyond Belief: The Science-Backed Way to Stop Limiting Yourself and Achieve Breakthrough Results (Amazon, Bookshop)*. Most of us recognize that a huge part of what motivates us – or not – is our own thinking. In this conversation, Nir and I explore where our beliefs get in the way and how we can align them just a bit to help us move forward. Key Points A sentence starting with “I am…” can be among the most dangerous in any language. Often, our beliefs limit us. Belief is the foundation of the motivation triangle that includes benefit and behavior. Yet, we often overlook beliefs. Curt Richter's study of rats in the 1950s shows how an animal's belief system can massively influence its behavior. The real question isn't “Is this belief true?” but rather, “Does this belief serve me?” You can choose beliefs based on usefulness, not certainty. Difficulty may mean we are not cut out for something, but it might also be evidence of growth. Too often, we quit too soon. Progress comes from consistent action, not perfect plans.

But those short-term victories often distract us from making meaningful progress toward the goals that truly matter. And today's guest is the perfect person to help shift your mindset to create long-term impact that can transform your career, relationships, and life. Dorie Clark has been named one of the Top 50 Business Thinkers in the World by Thinkers50 and Inc. Magazine.

Dorie Clark is an executive education professor at Duke University's Fuqua School of Business and Columbia Business School, and is the bestselling author of several books, including The Long Game and Stand Out. A frequent Harvard Business Review contributor, she has consulted for leading organizations including Google, Microsoft, and the World Bank. Dorie is former presidential campaign spokeswoman, an award-winning journalist, and a four-time Thinkers50 honoree who was named the world's top communication coach by the Marshall Goldsmith Leading Global Coaches Awards. Dorie holds degrees from Smith College and Harvard Divinity School. In this episode we discuss the following: While Dorie was working grueling hours on the campaign trail for low pay, her boss was earning 10 times her monthly salary in one hour speeches—and that sparked Dorie's curiosity. She realized that the massive pay difference came down to scale. Even if Broadway actors are just as talented as Hollywood actors, the Hollywood actors reach millions more people, thus commanding a premium. Dorie also saw that her boss had earned trust of other high status people who vouched for him. By building up social proof through brand affiliations, media appearances, and content creation, we make it easier for people to trust us. And we can also increase our scale. 

What doors could open if you launched your book with a strategy, not just a release date? Today's panelists are two entrepreneurs who didn't just publish a book—they launched it with intention. Each followed my launch strategies to build a launch team filled with likely prospects and referral partners, host a high-impact launch event, and turn their book into a business asset.  The results speak for themselves: each author received between 71 and 77 Amazon reviews. Nearly every reader left not just a star rating but a written review. This level of engagement sets a book up for long-term discoverability and gives the author more credibility.

Every so often, an episode calls for something a little different—and today is one of those times. You're about to hear a conversation between two friends, colleagues, and champions of books that actually drive business results. In this special episode, I'm handing the mic to Kate Colbert, award-winning author of “Think Like a Marketer” and “Commencement: The Beginning of a New Era in Higher Education.” She's also a founding partner of the Biz Book Pub Hub. If you've listened to this show before, you know Kate's passion for helping entrepreneurs write books that don't just live on shelves—but move readers to act, engage, and buy. Today, she's taking over as the host to interview someone she knows well: ME! I've spent years behind the scenes coaching entrepreneurs on how to turn their books into business assets. Now, I'm pulling back the curtain on my own playbook with the release of my fourth book, “LAUNCH Your Book! An Entrepreneur's Guide to Reviews That Drive Revenue.” In this conversation, Kate and I go beyond the typical “how-to” and dive into what it really takes to launch a nonfiction book that builds credibility, generates leads, and drives long-term results. This is more than a launch story. It's a roadmap for what's possible when you combine thoughtful strategy with a history of community building. And as you'll hear, Kate's guest-hosting duties aren't just a formality—her thoughtful questions and behind-the-scenes knowledge bring an added layer of richness to this conversation. So let's dive in as Kate Colbert interviews me about the intentional launch behind “LAUNCH Your Book! An Entrepreneur's Guide to Reviews That Drive Revenue.” In this episode, we discuss the following:

Finishing your manuscript is exciting, and you're probably eager to finally see your book out in the world. But the reality is, hitting "publish" isn't the finish line—it's just the start. Getting your book printed or uploaded online is satisfying, but that's only part of being an author. The real challenge—and opportunity—is in finding readers and building genuine connections with them. It's not about fancy marketing jargon; it's about knowing who your readers are, speaking directly to them, and creating lasting relationships. That's where I come in. I help entrepreneurs plan book launches that are clear, practical, and designed specifically for their audience.  Together, we'll figure out exactly who your readers are and the best ways to reach them—through virtual events, personal messages, meaningful content, and real conversations.

My guest for Episode #299 of the My Favorite Mistake podcast is Luis Velasquez, an executive coach in Silicon Valley and a Stanford Graduate School of Business facilitator. He's also the founder of Velas Consulting. Episode page with video, transcript, and more Once a university professor and research scientist, Luis helps mid-level managers to C-suite executives around the world learn, adapt, grow, and thrive by helping them how to reframe their challenges and take the most beneficial next step.  His new book, available now, is Ordinary Resilience: Rethinking How Effective Leaders Adapt And Thrive. Luis is a contributor to Harvard Business Review and Fast Company, and was featured in best-selling author Dorie Clark's book, The Long Game. An avid endurance athlete, he runs marathons, ultra marathons, and ironman triathlons.  In today's episode, Luis shares his journey from being a university professor and research scientist to becoming a trusted leadership coach in Silicon Valley and a facilitator for the Stanford Graduate School of Business. Luis discusses his new book, Ordinary Resilience: Rethinking How Effective Leaders Adapt and Thrive, and outlines his unique resilience formula—commitment plus persistence multiplied by optimism. He explains that resilience isn't about bouncing back but about unlocking the inherent ability to adapt and thrive by continuously reframing challenges and learning from experiences. Luis also opens up about a significant mistake in his coaching career. He recounts a time when he delivered 360-degree feedback in a way that was too direct and decontextualized, which led a client to become defensive and ultimately resulted in his contract being terminated. This experience taught him the importance of providing feedback within the context of an individual's aspirations and personal growth, rather than simply relaying raw perceptions. The conversation further explores his approach to transforming challenging personalities—like the so-called “brilliant jerks”—into effective leaders, and how embracing and learning from mistakes is key to unlocking resilience and driving both personal and professional growth. Questions and Topics: How long is an ultramarathon compared to a standard 26.1-mile marathon? Given your diverse career, what is your favorite mistake—and what did you learn from it? Should we express our degree of certainty when stating facts? How do you define resilience in leadership? How do you identify and connect with high-value, challenging employees—is it via referrals or direct outreach? How often do you coach not only the “brilliant jerk” but also intervene with their teams? What role does fear play as a catalyst for growth—is it simply about reframing it? Have you observed leaders effectively fostering optimism among their teams? What does “embrace the suck” mean to you, and why is it a pivotal concept in your book?

Luis Velasquez coaches leaders worldwide, guiding them to turn challenges into opportunities. He is the author of the best-selling book “Ordinary Resilience:  Rethinking How Effective Leaders Adapt and Thrive.” Luis shows how to unlock and strengthen innate resilience, preparing you to face whatever life throws your way. He's helped hundreds of leaders thrive throughout change, and now he's sharing his framework to help you do the same. With client accounts, personal anecdotes, and professional insight, Luis provides a roadmap you'll return to in every challenge you face. His strategic thinking is regularly published by the Harvard Business Review and Fast Company. He has been spotlighted in Forbes and books: Dorie Clark's "The Long Game." Tammy Gooler Loeb's “Work from the Inside Out” and Ludmilla Praslova's “The Canary Code.” Luis also facilitates professional development courses at the Stanford University Graduate School of Business. Luis is not only an advocate for resilience but a living testament to it. He was raised in poverty in Guatemala which was riddled by civil war at the time. When he came to the U.S. as a teenager to  learn English. Later, after going back to Guatemala, he returned to the U.S. attended college and  studied in earnest to get his Ph.D. in Botany. He became a tenure track college professor.  Then, tragedy struck. He was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Showing unparalleled commitment, persistence, and optimism, Luis survived. Today, he's an ultra-marathoner and Ironman triathlete, having tackled the Western States 100 Mile Endurance Run. Family lies at the heart of his drive. Together with his wife, they're raising two children whom they hope will become two kind, confident, and resilient humans, mirroring the principles he champions.

Rethink career success by testing, adapting, and staying open to unexpected opportunities.Career planning isn't as straightforward as we often assume—but according to Dorie Clark, that's actually a good thing. Instead of following a rigid path, she believes we should be “treating our careers like a series of experiments”—testing, iterating, and staying open to unexpected opportunities."People assume they need to have everything mapped out for the next twenty years," Clark explains. "But in reality, careers are built through testing, learning, and adapting—just like a scientific hypothesis."As a bestselling author and career strategist, Clark has spent years studying how professionals can future-proof their careers in an unpredictable world. She shares why informational interviews, LinkedIn strategy, and quarterly career check-ins are essential tools for anyone looking to make a career shift. “You don't want to be so mired in your plan that you can't take advantage of unexpected opportunities,” she says.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Clark joins host Matt Abrahams to challenge traditional career advice and explore strategic personal branding, the power of weak ties in networking, and why “reinvention isn't a one-time event—it's a habit.”This episode is brought to you by LinkedIn.

Maria Ross emphasizes that true empathy is misunderstood, often confused with niceness or agreement, and instead should be about understanding and acting on others' perspectives.The Empathy Dilemma aims to support leaders in adapting to a post-pandemic world by balancing the needs of the business with those of their employees. The conversation covers five foundational pillars of effective empathetic leadership: self-awareness, self-care, clarity, decisiveness, and creating joy at work. Ross also addresses myths about empathy, including the false notion that empathy is tied to gender.

Steve Dennis: Leaders Leap Steve Dennis is a strategy consultant, advisor, speaker, and author focused on transformational leadership and the impact of digital disruption. He is the president of SageBerry Consulting and host of the Remarkable Retail podcast. He's the author of the book Remarkable Retail and his newest book Leaders Leap: Transforming Your Company at the Speed of Disruption*. Every leader needs to stay relevant in order to serve well. In this conversation, Steve and I explore the mindset and tactics that will help us lead in the context of an ever-changing world. Key Points Self-sufficiency is a virtue, until it's not. Learning to ask for help is a key practice for leaders. Be cautious about a deserving attitude. High expectations may be correlated with low resilience. Seek insight everywhere. It's no longer sufficient just to gain ideas from direct competitors. Turning pro means showing up and doing the work, especially when we don't feel like it. We must go through discomfort, not around it. Radical acceptance of truth will help you stay relevant in changing times.

Have you ever stopped for a second and thought about all of the things you do at work in a week? There are some tasks most of us need to do to be successful at our jobs. But do you also find yourself doing other tasks like administrative work, planning and setting up for parties, or training new employees? And have these responsibilities started to take over your work days?   If so, you're not alone. These types of tasks are called “non-promotable tasks” and women volunteer for them far more often than men.  Dorie Clark's new book, The Long Game: How To Be A Long-Term Thinker In A Short-Term World delves into how the little tasks we do day to day at work may be harming our long-term career strategy. Chapters: 00:00: Introduction 02:57: Busyness as an Anesthetic 07:42: Defining Long-Term and Short-Term Thinking 14:56: The Importance of Saying No 18:32: Optimizing for Interesting 25:56: Career Waves and Making Smart Choices 28:51: Conclusion Takeaways: Non-promotable tasks, such as administrative work and planning office parties, can take up valuable time and prevent you from focusing on tasks that align with your long-term career goals. It is important to recognize and address overworking as a coping mechanism. Long-term thinking involves considering the big picture and making choices that optimize for interesting and meaningful work. Saying no can be challenging, but it is important to set boundaries and prioritize tasks that align with personal and professional goals. Asking important questions, such as the total cost and physical/emotional impact of a task, can help evaluate requests and make informed decisions. Navigating different phases of a career involves transitioning between learning, sharing, connecting, and reaping phases, and being willing to disrupt oneself to avoid stagnation.

Welcome back to the Hello Monday Master Class! We've distilled the essence of hundreds of conversations into five essential rules that will empower you to thrive in an ever-changing professional landscape. Welcome to our final week! This week, we'll take a look at the role of time - and even more importantly, at the role of long term thinking - in achieving our biggest and sometimes scariest goals. In this episode, we learn from Dorie Clark. Dorie is widely known as an author, a speaker, and a professor. She's a powerful business thinker, and she's currently pursuing a totally new dream. Dorie's writing a musical she hopes will land on Broadway and to do this, she's is putting her own advice into practice. She has set a goal for herself on a ten-year timeline. She's a little more than halfway through that decade right now, and she has a lot to teach us about how to make big strides on a long time-horizon. There's no wishful thinking here; instead, Dorie teaches us how to make big swings seem like practical and achievable ambitions. For this week's exercise, we're leaning into our biggest and most ambitious dreams. What's something you want to achieve that seems worth ten years of your attention and hard work? You'll know you're on the right track if you feel vaguely terrified. When you've got it, head over to our free Hello Monday group on LinkedIn and share that big goal on our week five post. For a little help in finding your week five goal, here is a link to our Dream Job exercise. Dorie has appeared on Hello Monday a few times - you can check out her previous episodes here and here.
