In today's episode I speak to farmer, educator and my own business partner, Jonty Brunyee. As I was preparing to change careers 7 years ago, I approached Jonty and his wife, Mel, to see if there was scope for setting up a market garden here at Conygree Farm. To cut a long story short, we went into partnership and the rest is history! Inspired by Jonty and Mel, I have become evangelical about partnerships and I have been keen for a while to sit down with Jonty and get him talking. Anyway, we sat down last week, in between lambing, calving, harvesting, blow-drying the water pump and setting up for our big spring plant sale weekend. We talked about being enterprising, enterprise stacking and synergy, the ins and outs of joint ventures, partnerships and the importance of business planning. Jonty, as he says himself, is a big picture person and a people person. As well as running a successful farm business he has taught and inspired thousands of people - farmers and the general public alike, including at the Royal Agricultural University and at FarmEd. And hopefully there's lots in our conversation to inspire you today, so let's get to it. This podcast is brought to you by the Organic Growers Alliance, the UK's only grower-led organisation providing technical and practical advice and support on organic growing.

Host Steve Legler speaks with Dr. Jeffrey Foote, one of the authors of Beyond Addiction: How Science and Kindness Help People Change. Together, they discuss how family members and FEAs can become important catalysts in helping people with addiction issues overcome them, for the benefit of the entire family.   Welcome to Let's Talk Family Enterprise, a podcast that explores the ideas, concepts, and models that best serve Family Enterprise Advisors in supporting their clients.   All views, information, and opinions expressed during this podcast are solely those of the individuals involved and do not necessarily represent those of Family Enterprise Canada.   Guest bio Dr. Jeffrey Foote is a psychologist and nationally recognized clinical research scientist with over 30 years of experience utilizing evidence-based treatment approaches for the treatment of substance use issues and Post-traumatic Stress.

Navigating out of addiction is more often successful when the families are involved, but families are the most underserved voices in addiction treatment.   [20:36] Self-awareness and self-care are a major part of helping others, but Dr. Foote cautions that it doesn't necessarily mean detaching and walking away.   [22:44] Good communication tools are a huge asset, whatever the pain point! The Beyond Addiction Workbook offers compassionate, evidence-based tools.   [25:10] The past decades have offered some incremental change in addiction treatment, but the very high prevalence of co-occurring psychiatric issues still needs to be brought to light and addressed.   [28:01] Having a moderating voice in a family discussion on addiction is important to help slow things down.   [29:58] Dr. Jeffrey Foote shares his book recommendations as well as his advice for advisors and families.   [33:14] Steve Legler thanks Dr. Jeffrey Foote for sharing his expertise and closes this episode by reminding listeners to rate and subscribe.   If you enjoyed today's episode, you can subscribe to Let's Talk Family Enterprise on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and other podcast apps.

He is the author of four books, over fifty published articles, and the producer of more than 200 videos including, the “Fifty-Five Second Family Fiduciary” and “Secrets of a Family Fiduciary” series. In his work with enterprising families, Buddy team developed a concept he calls “the three essential elements”. He describes this concept and how he puts it to work when he advises wealthy families. As with any creative conceptual framework, the key question and the real test is how it gets applied in real-life situations. Buddy paints a detailed picture of how he and his team do wealth planning with families that encompasses all three essential elements and talks about the planning process they have created that achieves the appropriate balance between left- and right-brain topics and priorities. Buddy and his firm are known for at least one practical tool they apply successfully with families – a tool that they even named their firm after, the Superplan. Buddy defines what the Superplan is and outlines how it works and how families can benefit from it. Taking his methodology to the next level, Buddy and his firm have now developed a Family Wealth Game as a modern tool to help families engage in the planning process together and are even building this game into a software application. He shares the vision and workings of this game, describes what it adds to the wealth advisory process, and illustrates the experience it delivers to enterprising families. Please enjoy this insightful conversation with a thoughtful and creative veteran of the family wealth advisory profession and a member of a multigenerational enterprising family.

Welcome back to Making Bank. In today's episode, we have a compilation of previous episodes with Joe Fier and Matt Wolfer, Diana House, Todd Brown, Francis Wolff, Jeremy Parker, Chad Keller and Dave Mckeown, and in this episode you will hear tips and tricks from top entrepreneurs about the guide to success.   (3:00) Joe Fier And Matt Wolfe Hiring people is good for expanding your business and increasing productivity but when you bring people in, a smaller share will go into your pocket. You will have to share your profit with others. Your profit will not be as much as when you did it alone.    (7:18) Diana House Giving feedback isn't a challenging thing. The problem is giving productive feedback. You need to figure out how to give feedback in a productive way where you maintain positivity but you also remember to put necessary constructive feedback that will help in growth and maturity.    (12:54) Todd Brown You have to be a student of the market before you are a student of a product or even your product. You have to pay attention to what is selling well and figure out how it is being positioned and presented to the market. This way you will know how to make the sale of your product a success.   (21:53) Francis Wolff Having a clear strategy is important when doing business. Once you have a working strategy, then it is just a matter of how the market responds to that strategy. This way you can then kind of pick the winning strategy and just focus on what is already working for you.   (26:53) Jeremy Parker You need to learn as much as possible about who today's buyers are. You need to have hundreds if not thousands of conversations with top managers, HR managers, marketing team, sales team, and all the relevant people who deal directly with your organization so that you can figure out who your first customers are.  (31:26) Chad Keller Sometimes you have to do things you don't want to do because that is how it will be when you first start your business. This will then teach you what you love to do and what you don't like to do. It is the best kind of hands-on experience you can hope to get that will get you ready for your next one.    (35:48) Dave Mckeown One of the biggest difficulties you will have in business is struggling to go from a culture of saying yes and then figuring out how to deliver it. Sometimes you may say yes but you will find that it is very hard to get it to a culture of ongoing, sustained, and ultimately scalable success.   Tags: @joefier  @mattrwolfe  @diana_house_  @toddbrown  @franciswolff  @chad.w.keller  @davemckeown1

THE TOY ROOMThree little siblings: a little girl with red curls on her head and two little boys with straight hair; every morning they went to school. They had fashionable backpacks from which they took out all the necessary items, but from each of the three backpacks a new toy came out. A child named Carletto had a worn-out and faded backpack, just a small notebook, an eraser, and a worn-out pencil; when the teacher noticed, she scolded him.Curious about the toys, one day he followed the three siblings. They arrived near a building, very narrow and very tall, yellow and green in color, which ended with a tower. In front of them walked little mice in single file; "how strange," he didn't have time to think it when the little animals fluttered behind a hedge. Hidden there was a small window with a grate; the mice went through it, the children followed, and him, cunningly, followed them a minute later. There was a ladder so high that it seemed to reach the sky. The mice's tail, transformed into a propeller, made them go up like rockets. Once at the top, they opened a door, turned around and said, "Come on, come on, Carletto, we've been waiting for you for a long time!" Carletto climbed up with the enthusiasm of someone heading towards a discovery, incredulous but eager to understand and discover. At the top, he passed by the animals who gave him a big bow; he thought: "Have I become a king by magic?" He looked around: "I am in a dream..."The room had a loft; toys of all kinds were scattered in every corner. He was struck by an old wooden horse with wheels, a string to pull it, and a whistle under its tail. A puppet theater was putting on a show. A spinning top seemed like a flying carousel; a nutcracker soldier sat on the loft and spoke up: "You are Carletto, I know you, the child who is perched under the roof, with a glove that covers only one finger, a patched jacket, but with big eyes that seem like street lamps; I see you from the theater stage, I would like to call you, but I have a role to respect." Carletto was more than amazed.The three siblings entered, astonished by his presence; the toy room was a secret. The mice consulted each other, they were the guardians. A robot, who had a brain, proposed that Carletto become part of the magic. "Enterprising, as brave as he is, and he likes theater," said the nutcracker, standing tall as befits a soldier.The secret was not only about the toys, but there was a real super secret. A team of soldiers, who were all lined up on the loft, came down every night to protect the dreams of the children in their little beds. Everyone was happy with the decision taken.In a corner, on a small stool, there was a cricket eating a sandwich; from joy, it rolled to the ground. The little sister insisted on taking Carletto as a fourth sibling and, as such, they behaved at school and outside. If someone asked Carletto: "Have you ever seen a very tall building, half yellow and half green with a tower?" "Yes, yes," he replied smiling, "but only in a dream."__________________________________________________You can read or listen to this Story Under The Stars in: Italian — English — Spanish — French — Japanese — Chinese —Request your language and we will do our best to accommodate you!The translation from Italian (the original language) to other languages, and the reading of the stories in all these languages, is not magic but the work of Artificial Intelligence — which perhaps is a bit magical...
