What if the safest path isn't actually the most secure one?In this thought-provoking episode of Limitless MD, Dr. Vikram Raya sits down with Rohan Saxena for a powerful conversation on entrepreneurship, uncertainty, wealth creation, mindset, and the evolving future of physicians.Together, they unpack why more doctors are beginning to question the traditional path of medicine and explore what it really means to create freedom, ownership, and long-term security in today's rapidly changing world.Dr. Raya shares his personal journey from practicing cardiologist to entrepreneur and investor, revealing the moments that pushed him beyond the limitations of traditional medicine. From building preventive cardiology programs and functional medicine initiatives to real estate investing and coaching physicians nationwide, this episode dives into the mindset shifts required to build a life beyond the stethoscope.Rohan also shares his own unconventional journey of walking away from the “safe” path in pursuit of greater autonomy, adaptability, and control over his future — leading to a fascinating discussion on certainty, antifragility, AI, coaching, entrepreneurship, and why the most successful people learn to thrive in uncertainty instead of avoiding it.This episode is a masterclass in resourcefulness, clarity, strategic thinking, and designing a life that aligns with your vision instead of someone else's expectations.“If your desire for freedom is greater than your desire for certainty, you have to think differently.”~ Rohan SaxenaIn This Episode:Why many physicians feel trapped despite successful careersThe hidden limitations of the traditional medical pathHow entrepreneurial thinking creates more freedom and controlThe difference between active income and asset creationWhy ownership matters more than income aloneBuilding wealth through entrepreneurship, real estate, and businessHow coaching and mentorship accelerate growth and confidenceThe role of AI in business, medicine, and decision-makingWhy clarity is one of the biggest missing pieces for physiciansReverse engineering financial freedom and lifestyle designThe concept of Ikigai and finding meaningful workWhy antifragility and adaptability matter in today's economyHow to think strategically instead of emotionally about your futureAbout Rohan SaxenaRohan Saxena is a digital marketing expert and the Director of Marketing at Limitless MD, where he helps scale the company's growth, brand strategy, and physician impact initiatives.With expertise in content creation, media buying, funnel building, campaign strategy, and digital growth systems, Rohan has built over 1,000,000 organic followers across multiple brands and profitably managed more than $400,000 in advertising spend.In his first year at Limitless MD, he helped grow the company's annual revenue from approximately $700,000 to over $2,000,000 while helping expand the movement of entrepreneurial and high-performing physicians worldwide.Passionate about entrepreneurship, AI, marketing, and personal growth, Rohan brings a fresh perspective on adaptability, value creation, and building freedom in an increasingly uncertain world.Connect with Vikram:

Why the best leaders treat uncertainty as a chance to learn, not a failure to avoid.Most companies are built to grow. Far fewer are built to stay true to their purpose as they do.Eric Ries is an entrepreneur, creator of the Lean Startup movement, and author of Incorruptible: Why Good Companies Go Bad and How Great Companies Stay Great. For Ries, innovation starts with a simple reality: nobody can predict the future. “If you're going to do something fundamentally new,” he says, “how are we supposed to forecast” what success will look like? Instead of relying on certainty, leaders should focus on learning. “If you cannot fail, you cannot learn.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Ries and host Matt Abrahams explore how leaders can communicate through uncertainty, turn setbacks into valuable insights, and build cultures rooted in trust. From the power of the build-measure-learn feedback loop to the importance of making “deposits” in a company's culture bank, Ries shares practical strategies for creating organizations that innovate, adapt, and stay true to their values as they grow.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Eric RiesEric's Book: IncorruptibleEp.56 Lean Messaging: How Simple Messages Really StickEp.54 Leadership and Ethics: How to Communicate Your Core Values  Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedIn Chapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:21) - Lean Startup Fundamentals (04:03) - Business Plans vs. Reality (06:31) - Learning from Failure (08:11) - Why Companies Go Bad (10:49) - The Culture Bank (13:51) - The Final Three Questions (22:05) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.Unleash your Superhuman potential with AI that meets you where you work.

Okay so I finally dragged Michael into the studio. It's been like two or three houses ago since he was last on, and honestly every time I get him on you guys go nuts with the questions.If you don't know, Mike is my husband, my business partner, my bestie, and the back office brains behind everything I grow.We've run this business together for eight years now and people are always shocked we haven't killed each other.So we're getting into all of it. How we split our roles, how we make decisions together, the aligned client thing that took him a whole year to unlearn from corporate, our weirdly aligned money habits, and the time I found out he was sleeping on his brother's couch when we first met (I genuinely thought he'd lost all his money).It's a fun one. He's an Aquarian so just lean left of centre and you'll get his energy 

Hey guys, so I posted a carousel on Friday night breaking down my funnel and honestly the DMs have been wild.The part that shocked people the most? I sell 40+ courses every month with no ads and no launches. People just find them and buy.So I'm walking you through the whole thing in this episode.How I go from a post on Instagram to a $7 course sale to people buying again and again. The customer ladder. The Google Doc method for the mastermind. Why 72% of people actually finish my courses and come back.The mechanics are simpler than you think, and I promise 90% of you are missing step one.Come listen. I think this one's going to be useful

Hey guys, so I just paid a tax bill and looking at those numbers in the past I probably would've wanted to throw up in my mouth a little bit. But I've done a couple of really clever things from both a strategy and a systems perspective that have completely changed the way I look at money now.I thought I'd record this episode because I know a lot of you are heading into business expense season, and honestly even if you're not, it's so useful to hear how other entrepreneurs actually deal with their money stuff behind the scenes.Enjoy this one guys, and I'm so thrilled to have a new sponsor on board, truly such a dream company

In this episode of The Fearless Mindset Podcast, host Mark Ledlow is joined by Christopher Stitt, an East Coast State Department security professional focused on threat and risk assessments, recent MBA graduate, and first-time author of the leadership book "Scaling Pyramids," discussing the wins, losses, and mindset of serial entrepreneurship and networking. They highlight Mark's approach to visibility and branding through a Dallas chauffeur driving course filmed like a documentary to create social clips, market to clients and agents, and differentiate executive protection with a more corporate style, emphasizing not letting others derail a clear vision. The conversation also covers capturing industry mixers and forums for ongoing educational content, managing introversion and burnout at events (including a recurring fully clothed “bathtub” photo-op), technology and AI adoption with client privacy concerns, referral-based consulting, and speculation about heightened U.S.-Iran tensions, protests, and election/voting-system concerns.Learn about all this and more in this episode of The Fearless Mindset Podcast.KEY TAKEAWAYSInnovate boldly, even when your team pushes back. Mark invested in a film crew for his chauffeur training course despite internal resistance — the result was cinematic-quality content for branding and marketing.Let others tell your story. Rather than self-promoting, Mark had the agents in the course become the stars of the documentary, which is more authentic and compelling.Cross-pollination is a marketing strategy. Giving agents content (with your logo) for their own LinkedIn profiles builds mutual brand amplification.Referrals and relationships drive enterprise security consulting — not just name recognition. Smaller firms can compete on quality at a fraction of the price.AI is a tool, not a shortcut for sensitive data. Chris emphasizes using AI responsibly, especially when handling client information and privacy concerns.Introverts can thrive in high-visibility roles by managing energy intentionally — finding small groups within large crowds, stepping away briefly to reset.Geopolitical risk is real and escalating. The US military buildup near Iran (described as the largest since Desert Storm) signals a potential inflection point for global security professionals to monitor.Democratic systems are the safeguard. Regardless of political views, elections every four years remain the legitimate mechanism for change.QUOTES"Do not let people steer you from your vision. If you have an idea, just make it become reality. What's the worst that can happen?""You've got to innovate. You can separate yourself.""It's like being a mouse in a maze trying to find the cheese." — on entrepreneurship"I always like talking with you because it broadens my perspective and gives me the ability to see something new or different.""We're not for everybody, and that's okay with us.""It's either strike the deal or do the strike." — on Iran/Trump policy"They killed 30,000 protesters in an effort to hang onto power. That many people willing to sacrifice their lives — that shows how scared the regime is.""We still live in the greatest country in the world, regardless of who's president."Get to know more about Christopher Stitt through the link/s below.https://www.linkedin.com/in/christopherstittcem/Check out the Scaling Pyramids (Security, Audit and Leadership Series) book.https://a.co/d/0fwAPBYdTo hear more episodes of The Fearless Mindset podcast, you can go to https://the-fearless-mindset.simplecast.com/ or listen on major podcasting platforms such as Apple, Google Podcasts, Spotify, etc. You can also subscribe to the Fearless Mindset YouTube Channel to watch episodes on video.

Jeff Dudan's free digital copy of his book At the end of a franchise training session, a newly minted franchise owner pulled Jeff Dudan aside and asked one question: "How do I get over my mental block about investing another $50,000?" That single question opened up a masterclass in entrepreneurial fear, belief, and capital strategy. In this Franchise Friday episode of the Unemployable Podcast, Jeff breaks down the three mental frameworks every business owner needs when facing a scary investment decision - whether it's $50,000 or $5 million. He shares the raw story of going $4 million in debt to buy out his partner at Vanguard Clean with zero franchisees, a $2 million disputed receivable, and zero certainty of outcome. What he did have was an unshakeable belief that he would never quit. You'll learn why business is an infinite game and why time is your greatest asset if you stay in it, how to reframe financial losses as tuition and extract compounding lessons from every setback, the self-liquidating investment test borrowed from direct-response marketing that tells you exactly whether your capital is working or sitting still, why your culture is just your organization's memory and how great companies institutionalize lessons to prevent repeated mistakes, and how to tell the difference between productive persistence and stubborn grinding that leads to broke and tired. Whether you're considering a franchise for the first time, scaling an existing business, or staring down a capital investment that scares you, this episode will give you the clarity, permission, and framework to make the decision with confidence.  https://www.youtube.com/@UNEMPLOYABLEWITHJEFFDUDAN  Homefront Brands: https://www.homefrontbrands.com  Jeff's Social: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffdudan/  Jeff's Site: https://www.jeffdudan.com  #FranchiseFriday #UnemployablePodcast #JeffDudan #HomefrontBrands #FranchiseBusiness #EntrepreneurMindset #BusinessGrowth #FranchiseOwner #SmallBusinessAdvice #InvestmentStrategy Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

May feels like a weird time of year. Real shit energy. Almost halfway through 2026 and you might not want to face the facts.This episode is different. I'm answering real questions from my mastermind clients - the stuff they're actually asking me in Voxer, Slack, and on our calls.If one of my clients is feeling it, I know you are too.

What does it really take to build a business that lasts nearly three decades without relying on traditional marketing? In this episode, I sit down with Brandon Pugmire, founder of ImprintCity, to unpack a journey that started with door-to-door hustling as a kid and evolved into a multi-service branding and print company serving clients across the country. Brandon shares how relationships, calculated risks, and a willingness to bet on himself shaped his success. We dig into the moments that could have ended his business, the unconventional decisions that saved it, and why he believes the future belongs to those who combine human connection with digital innovation. If you are building something long term and want to understand what actually sustains growth, this conversation delivers. In this episode, you'll learn: The intrinsic wiring of entrepreneurs and how to identify that early drive. The blueprint Brandon used to scale ImprintCity through human connection and referrals. The critical, unconventional lesson that protected his business during a market downturn. Why standard approaches to promotional products often fail and how to fix them. How to navigate high-stakes risks without compromising your long-term position. The massive shifts currently transforming the landscape of print and branding. The specific strategy for using high-quality giveaways to drive lasting brand impact. What it takes to sustain growth while maintaining the integrity of a family-owned business.

I created six new offers in nine hours yesterday. Something is in the air.But this episode isn't about me. It's about you - especially if you're really good at what you do but nobody's buying.One of my clients hadn't sold anything in four months. Four months. Then we got ruthlessly specific about one thing, and she made $1,200 in 48 hours.Being good at your craft and being found for your craft are two completely different skills. You were only taught one of them.In this episode, I'm breaking down what we changed, the 2AM problem you're not addressing, and the one sentence that makes the right people lean in.

Jason sat down with young entrepreneur Malcolm Keith to explore how teens can develop leadership, confidence, and entrepreneurial thinking much earlier in life, long before most people ever consider that path. In this episode of the #DoorGrowShow, property management growth expert Jason Hull and teen entrepreneur Malcolm Keith discuss how environment shapes mindset, why exposure matters more than pressure, and how parents can give their teenagers a powerful head start by surrounding them with the right opportunities and conversations.

I just created it because I wanted a friend group."  Resources DoorGrow and Scale Mastermind DoorGrow Academy DoorGrow on YouTube DoorGrowClub DoorGrowLive Transcript Jason Hull (00:01) All right, five, four, three, two, one. Welcome everybody. I'm Jason Hull, the owner and founder of DoorGrow, the world's leading and most comprehensive coaching and consulting firm for long-term residential property management entrepreneurs. For over a decade and a half, we've brought innovative strategies and optimization to the property management industry. At DoorGrow, we are on a mission to transform property management business owners and their businesses.   We want to transform the industry, eliminate the BS, build awareness, change perception, expand the market and help the best property management entrepreneurs win. Now let's get into the show. All right. So today this show is going to be all about giving your teenager the headstart that you wish you had as an entrepreneur. Don't you wish you could just go back and like help yourself out. So I'm hanging out here today with Malcolm. Malcolm, welcome. Welcome, Keith.   Malcolm Keith (00:56) Hey, thank you.   Jason Hull (00:59) welcome to the show. So I'll give you a little bit of background on Malcolm. At just 17, Malcolm launched Teen Mastermind, a growing community of more than 60 teens dedicated to leadership, entrepreneurship, and building a meaningful legacy. Now 19, Malcolm has taken that vision even further by bringing the movement into the real world with Teen Mastermind Live, a three-day immersive leadership experience designed for both teens and their parents.   In a time when most conversations about young people revolve around screen addiction and disconnection and lack of direction, Malcolm represents a powerful counter narrative. As a young leader himself, he's helping teens step into confidence, develop entrepreneurial thinking and strengthen family relationships around shared purpose and growth. So Malcolm, welcome to the DoorGrow show.   Malcolm Keith (01:53) Awesome. Thank you so much. I'm excited to be here.   Jason Hull (01:56) Cool, cool. So now tell people a little bit, how did you get started doing this and how did you kind of start your little entrepreneurial journey yourself?   Malcolm Keith (02:09) Yeah, so my parents got married and opened their dojo the same year. And so I've been in the entrepreneurial world my entire life, about as long as I've been on the mats doing jujitsu. And so those two go very hand in hand in my journey. ⁓ And so I think when I was when I was nine years old is when my parents, they've been going to a mastermind for ⁓ martial arts school owners. And so they've been like, you   Jason Hull (02:17) Thank   Malcolm Keith (02:38) One parent would go while the other parent would stay home and take care of me and my little sister. But one day they were like, why are we continuing to do this? We, we homeschool and we have the ability to just take the whole family together and it kind of sucks when the family is split apart. So why don't we just, so they made a commitment to always take the whole family on every trip, on every business trip. And so we got to sit in the meeting rooms.   and learn from these entrepreneurs. At first we were like little kids just playing with our toys quietly in the corner, reading a book quietly. But ⁓ as a little kid, you're a little information sponge. And so eventually we actually started listening and taking notes. And then I think it was probably when we went to some of Russell's events, like Funnel Hacking Live and Unlock the Secrets was when I was like, this entrepreneur stuff is super cool. And it wasn't my parents who were   directly telling me like, you need to be a business owner. This is how being an entrepreneur works. It was the people on stage that, so my parents put me in these rooms where there were people on stage and they were the ones that were selling me on the idea of entrepreneurship. And so that's how, that's kind of how I got into this whole world.   Jason Hull (03:56) You had entrepreneurial parents and they put you in some amazing opportunities and rooms to be exposed to think differently. And man, that's like the best homeschool education ever, right? It's a real education that actually leads you making money instead of just being a really good employee somewhere maybe. cool. And your parents are doing, have the martial arts school and doing the martial arts thing. And do you do martial arts? ⁓   Malcolm Keith (04:08) yeah.   Yeah, I've been doing   it since I I learned how to walk and talk on the mats. So I've been, yeah, whole life.   Jason Hull (04:26) Yeah, okay. So   right. I mean, don't let the glasses fool you. This guy could probably kick your butt. So, all right. So very cool. So Malcolm, and you've been doing this mastermind, you've got this event coming up. So tell people about like, why did you decide to start this and get this thing going?   Malcolm Keith (04:47) Yeah, so I've been going to these, like, there's been, we've been going to Russell's events for a while and I would sometimes meet a couple of the teens there. ⁓ There'd be occasionally a few teens, but we would never stay connected. And ⁓ as I was homeschooled, we were part of kind of a co-op. And so I still had like classmates that I would meet with every week and it was great.   But every time I'd come back home from these events, I'd come back to class and talk with my classmates there. And they just didn't understand it, this whole world of entrepreneurship and being a business owner and having a big vision and actually knowing that you can achieve it. so they didn't get exposed to that world ⁓ the same way that I did. And so ⁓ that felt a bit isolating. ⁓   Jason Hull (05:32) Yeah.   Yeah, yeah.   Malcolm Keith (05:44) It was at like, I think it was Unlock   the Secrets that I saw that, there are actually other teens that ⁓ are not only interested, but doing business already. But then I kept going to those events and we would never stay connected. ⁓ And so eventually it was ⁓ Unlock the Secrets in Paradise in 2024. And I realized, and I made the decision like, okay, this time is going to be different.   Jason Hull (06:01) Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (06:13) I'm going to make a Discord server and invite all the teams that I meet there. And we're just going to make a commitment to stay connected. Then we had, so I invited everybody there that I had met. We did our own little like in-person mastermind ⁓ during like one of the off sessions during the event, which is super fun. And then ⁓ one of us had the idea to start doing a call every week. So that's how that started happening. We could stay connected, keep each other updated on.   what we're all doing with our businesses. And that's how that started. Eventually the idea came along to, ⁓ we had this idea to try to get on the FHL 10 stage. And it's crazy idea, like, cause only the best of the best get on that stage. But.   Jason Hull (06:44) Yeah.   So   let's pause for a second. So I wanna explain to people listening. So he's mentioning Russell. We're talking about Russell Brunson. He's like the sort of the founder of ClickFunnels and brilliant entrepreneur, probably one of the greatest marketing minds ⁓ period of this generation. And ⁓ that's how we met you and your parents is we're in Russell Brunson's inner circle. ⁓   which is not an inexpensive thing to be part of. So getting access to that as a teenager is pretty amazing. So really awesome. And you were wanting to get on stage at Funnel Hacking Live, which was like this massive event. I think they have like sometimes 5,000, 6,000 people at these conferences, these events. And you're like, how can we maybe get on stage at this event as teenagers? So I love it. All right, so continue.   Malcolm Keith (07:53) Yeah, biggest marketing business event   like ever. So rock concert for entrepreneurs. ⁓ So we had this idea, what if we try to get on stage? It's probably not going to happen, but you might as well try. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. So, yeah, we put together a video made sure to include as many little like nods to all the stuff that Russell says to show that you actually listen to him. ⁓ And he really appreciated it. He said that   Jason Hull (07:59) Yeah.   Right, yeah.   Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (08:24) The lineup for the main stage was already chosen like a while before we had sent the video. But they were doing this new thing called round tables while actually bringing it back to this last event. So it was like 60 round tables each hosted by a high level entrepreneur. And they're like, maybe we can try to give you one of these round tables, which ended up being way better because we can actually talk directly to the other teens who came to that event, which there are a ton, which is   Jason Hull (08:30) I'm sure.   Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (08:53) So   cool to see. So we did that. And the team mastermind grew a lot after that event. was, I think, we were able to get our own separate room during that event. They were able to give one to us. And we had just our own in-person mastermind during FHL with 20 or more teens all in the room talking about our goals for the next 10 years.   Jason Hull (09:11) Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (09:23) and figuring out like what are the things that we're going to do today and this next week after we come back home that's actually going to bring us closer to those goals. So that was that was super fun.   Jason Hull (09:24) That's awesome.   Yeah.   Yeah, that's really cool. So ⁓ you're 19th over, right? What happens to this teen mastermind when you're not a teenager? Like that's within the next year.   Malcolm Keith (09:40) I am, yes.   Yeah, that's been something that I've been thinking about almost since the inception of it. Although at the beginning of it, I never knew it become this big and we'd be doing live events. Like I just created it because I wanted a friend group. ⁓ But they're like, this is super valuable. You got to monetize it. And so that took me a while to do that, ⁓ to kind of get over that block of like, I don't want to charge people who are my friends for something that I created.   Jason Hull (09:54) Sure, yeah.   Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (10:17) as a community, ⁓ but they were telling me like, it is super valuable and people value it more if you actually do charge money for it. Attention, yep, exactly. So I finally did that and that immediately started to grow the team mastermind. And then they were asking for live events. And so we're like, okay, yeah, we should do a live event just for our group. ⁓   Jason Hull (10:25) Yeah, like Russell says, when people pay, they pay attention.   Malcolm Keith (10:44) because there's   Jason Hull (10:44) Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (10:45) people, not just, a lot of them at the start were from Russell's Circles, going to Funnel Hacking Live together, but then there were teens from other places as well. And so we needed one kind of ⁓ our own place to all get together. So that's how the live event came about. ⁓ And I started with something else. I totally forgot. went off.   Jason Hull (11:05) Well, yeah,   it's ideas like what comes next? are you going to keep doing this? I mean, I imagine you could keep doing it, but you you're about to turn 20, so you're not a teen. But that's the main thing, can't run the team mastermind, but at some point you might be like, my friend group's getting a little young here, so.   Malcolm Keith (11:08) Yeah.   Yeah, so I got another year left.   Yeah, I mean, the thing is, the friends that are in there right now, ⁓ they're all growing up to. And so I think once all of those people quote unquote age out as well, I'll always have like my own inner circle of people that are similar to my age. We won't always all be teens, but we'll all be around the same distance apart. And so I think there'll be a mastermind afterwards, but   Jason Hull (11:39) Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (11:53) I'll always be part of the Teen Mastermind in some way, maybe not in the same role that I am right now. ⁓ I'm the person that's just a couple of steps ahead. ⁓   Jason Hull (12:06) Yeah. Well,   maybe you pick a teenager to kind of head it up or maybe they vote or something, but then you've got, you, give them the IP, you set up the frameworks, you help them know this, how to run the events. can ask you for guidance and you're always going to be a step ahead. know, so.   Malcolm Keith (12:23) Yeah, so that's, that was a really cool part of the mastermind was that it was created by a team and led by a team for teens. And so I always wanted to keep it that way. ⁓ and a couple of the teens in the group have kind of stepped up and become their own leaders in the group. and so I've been, ⁓ recruiting them a little bit here and there, and it's been really awesome so far. And so that's, ⁓   Jason Hull (12:34) Yeah.   Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (12:52) That's working out a lot.   Jason Hull (12:54) Right. Yeah. Now you're like Willy Wonka and you're just trying to find Charlie at the, who do I give the golden ticket to and teach them the ways and let them run this place. All right. So really cool. So what are some of the things that happen at the, at the event that you're gearing up?   Malcolm Keith (13:01) Yep.   Yeah, so   the idea first came, let's see, that's actually, okay, I'll save that. There's the grand finale part, which is my favorite and kind of the first idea that came about. ⁓ But so at the event, ⁓ I'm going to take pieces of previous events that I had been to the things that I really liked and implement them, but also look at the things that I, you know,   didn't like as much or things that I think could be improved and kind of take that into it. And so the whole event is built around community implementation and fun. At a lot of events, you know, if it's the event of like thousands of people, you can't really do this. But if it's an event of maybe a hundred or less, then you could very easily as the host, make sure that everybody knows each other. And so we start the event with   Jason Hull (13:52) Okay.   Yeah.   Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (14:10) having all the families introduce each other or introduce themselves so that everyone kind of knows like who it is that they're actually sitting next to because it's like to be at an event and have no clue who the person who the how cool the person in the chair to the right of you is. So that's how we start it. And then we love the walk and talks. Russell does that with Inner Circle. ⁓ Walk and talks are amazing. So we do that between every speaker and then. ⁓   Jason Hull (14:26) Right, yeah.   Okay.   Malcolm Keith (14:39) All of the, everybody sat at a round table and that's very specific because, ⁓ means that everybody is kind of grouped together and they get to talk, you know, across from each other instead of like talking all the way over to the table there, they're ⁓ sitting around and that automatically like subconsciously creates that sense of community. ⁓ so everything is built around that creating opportunities.   for people to have conversations. And then implementation, we want to make sure that the teens aren't just sitting there in a room having speakers just talk at them for hours. ⁓ We make sure that all those speakers have something like some kind of workshop and the teens are doing something active. And you learn more that way and you actually get stuff done during the event. And you can take that momentum with you back home.   Jason Hull (15:32) Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (15:36) and continue on from there. So many events give you a ton of ideas, but you're like, have no clue what to do when you get back home.   Jason Hull (15:45) Yeah, I got it. Some people call that experiential learning instead of just, you know, sitting there and listening the whole time and then eventually zoning out, making sure that I like the walk and talks. I like that there's this experiential learning where you're taking action, each of the speakers, it sounds like a challenge to do like get people to do something or implement something. So.   Malcolm Keith (16:07) Yeah, so we're super intentional about that. And then fun, of course. I think that's the most important because if I really do any of this, if it isn't fun along the way, entrepreneurship should be fun.   Jason Hull (16:21) Yeah, business owners, don't think of that a lot. Entrepreneurs are like, wait, like, let's make money. But yeah, but fun is nice, right? So how do you make it fun? Maybe you can teach the grownup here how to how to be more fun. So.   Malcolm Keith (16:31) So again, all the speakers are.   Yeah, the, mean, every speaker and all the workshops are meant to be fun. ⁓ and then we also have, excursion, like a special trip that we do for each day. So the first one is usually something kind of unique to the area for the one we did here in Oregon. ⁓ we went to wildlife safari, which I sometimes call it a zoo, but it's way more than that. It's, it is like an actual safari. we did like a bus tour and got to see a bunch of, ⁓ cool animals.   Jason Hull (17:01) Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (17:05) ⁓ in Arizona, we went to, ⁓ a like super car show, which is super fun. And then for this next event in Illinois, we'll be going like a ⁓ hiking trip and seeing some of the cool scenery there. So that's what we do for the first day, something kind of unique to the area that we go to. ⁓ on day two, we do jujitsu and so bringing my family's business routes there. ⁓ and there's.   Jason Hull (17:13) Nice.   Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (17:35) As my dad always says, jujitsu is a metaphor for pretty much everything. ⁓ It's constantly in the cars, what we talk about is how does jujitsu relate.   Jason Hull (17:40) Right.   Is this   Brazilian jujitsu or jujitsu or are you like throwing people like what are doing during the   Malcolm Keith (17:52) No, we usually teach like some basic self-defense stuff. So, wrist grab escapes, and then we do kind of more of what you would see if you actually watched a Jujutsu match, which is kind of like the grappling on the ground, ⁓ like a trap and roll. If someone's sitting on top of you, how to like get them over and escape. ⁓ So, some of the basic stuff like that.   Jason Hull (18:08) Mm-hmm.   Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (18:19) No throws and stuff. You need to learn how to fall first before you can throw. so yeah. Yeah.   Jason Hull (18:23) Sure, yeah, Breakfall, yeah, got   it. So like mount, guard. Okay, got it, okay. And these are with parents and kids?   Malcolm Keith (18:30) Mm-hmm. Yeah, that all that kind of stuff   Yes, so the whole event is supposed to be not just for teens, but for the whole family, because that's how our family does it. We always go together and we want to continue to be that example and start to like influence that mindset in other families to be a family together. so ⁓ and the jujitsu really helps with that. A lot of the like most successful students in ⁓ our dojo are families that all do it together. ⁓   Jason Hull (19:07) I see. Okay, got   it. So when you're doing the second day, and is it just two days?   Malcolm Keith (19:14) And then we have a final third day and we end the event with the Teenpreneur Ball. And that's an opportunity for all the teens, the whole family to ⁓ dress nice, dress fancy, which is very rare nowadays, especially for kids and teens. ⁓ And so I wanted to provide that opportunity to dress nice and fancy. We have a dinner and so that gives us an opportunity to learn about.   Jason Hull (19:16) Third day.   Malcolm Keith (19:43) like table etiquette, and then we do English dancing. So have you ever seen like pride and prejudice that movie? Okay. Yeah. Yeah. So big. Yeah. Big rows of, ⁓ of dance of, yeah, dancing. They all dance together.   Jason Hull (19:51) I think I know what you're talking about, where they're like all kind of doing their thing in circle and like turning.   like ancient   English line dancing or something. Okay. Okay. Yeah. All right. Cool. So a little teenpreneur ball.   Malcolm Keith (20:06) Yeah, I think it's called English country dancing, but yeah, I just call it English dancing. yeah. So and that's   yeah, so and that's our grand finale and the teens and the parents especially actually really love it.   Jason Hull (20:21) Yeah, okay. Yeah, you have an excuse to dress nice and dance with each other. all right. Yeah, I love it. That sounds, it sounds like fun. So, sounds really cool. So when is your, when's your next one?   Malcolm Keith (20:28) Yeah.   Our next one is April 30th to May 2nd in Marion, Illinois.   Jason Hull (20:39) April 30th   to May 2nd.   Sorry, what were you saying?   Malcolm Keith (20:45) It'll be in Marion, Illinois.   Jason Hull (20:50) Cool. How do you pick the locations?   Malcolm Keith (20:53) well, the first location that's where we live, we had a couple of members in Arizona and they were like really adamant about like, Scottsdale is amazing. So we went there and then a couple of our founding members who've been just so supportive since the beginning are in Illinois. So they're, they've been a huge help.   Jason Hull (20:56) Yep.   ⁓   got it. So you've got some boots on the ground in each area assisting you.   Malcolm Keith (21:16) yeah, yeah, it's, I'm   so grateful for, yeah, the patents. They are awesome.   Jason Hull (21:21) Yeah, very cool. Well, hey, Malcolm, really awesome. As adults, we love seeing this, ⁓ seeing the youth doing cool stuff like this. It's inspiring. And there's probably a lot of entrepreneurs listening to this. They're man, I wish my kid would just stop playing video games and be more like me and be more entrepreneurial. But sometimes kids are not entrepreneurial like their parents are. So.   they might feel like forcing them into this. So what would you say to some of those parents that might be trying to push their kid into being an entrepreneur and maybe the kids like, this isn't my thing.   Malcolm Keith (21:58) Yeah, I'd say my parents didn't necessarily push me. They just put me in the rooms where I learned that that was a path that was available to me. And I think that's the most important because the school system, I mean, it's a fact at this point. It is designed for the employee path. That's just a straight fact. Yeah, but and so there was no yeah, there's no teaching of the entrepreneurial way.   Jason Hull (22:09) Yeah.   Right. It makes good employees. Good factory worker.   Malcolm Keith (22:27) And so, and I totally agree that not everybody is built to be an entrepreneur, not everybody's built to be an employee either. And so having that option ⁓ just allows for your team to make a choice and to make an educated choice. And that's what, that's kind of what it's all about is giving them that opportunity and it's up to them whether or not they take it. ⁓ But there are so many lessons from entrepreneurship anyway that can apply to the ⁓   Jason Hull (22:31) Yeah.   Malcolm Keith (22:57) employee path anyway.   Jason Hull (22:59) Yeah, cool. Well, Malcolm, I really appreciate you being here on the DoorGrowth show. How can people find out about the Teen Mastermind, this event, and connect with you?   Malcolm Keith (23:11) Yeah, the best place ⁓ probably for the event would be teammastermylive.com.   Jason Hull (23:17) teenmastermindlive.com. Cool. So if you're a parent listening to this and you're like, man, I got a teenager and they might be interested in this and this sounds cool. Maybe this would be exciting for them. Then go check out teenmastermind. That's what it is, teenmastermind.com. Live. Okay, teenmastermindlive.com. Cool. Malcolm, thanks for coming here on the DoorGro show and hanging out with me for a bit. Keep going. Excited to see what you do next as you move into.   Malcolm Keith (23:33) Yeah.   Jason Hull (23:46) adulthood outside of being just a teenager, right? So very cool. All right.

Suzanne Mariga, CPA, fractional CFO, and CEO of the award-winning Mariga Group joins me in a conversation about the money mistake she sees again and again: founders pushing for years, sometimes decades, and still having nothing to show for it.Suzanne explains the Profit First method in plain language, including the five-bank-account setup that creates instant clarity around cash flow management: income, profit, owner's pay, tax, and operating expenses. She explains why focusing on building net worth is a better strategy than “saving tax” through spending.

The reminder that sometimes the biggest opportunities aren't sitting behind your laptop.If you've been avoiding in-person events because they feel uncomfortable, this one's your sign to say yes to one this year.

There's a big difference between being busy and building something that lasts. Many entrepreneurs don't realize they're stuck in that gap. They're working hard, juggling responsibilities, hustling nights and weekends — but the business isn't really moving forward. In this episode of Building Better Developers, Army veteran and founder of Skillful Brands, Antwon Person, breaks down what actually creates forward momentum in a business. And it's not hype, hacks, or grinding harder. It's mindset, structure, and knowing when to leverage. The Entrepreneurial Mindset Isn't About Hustle — It's About Structure When Antwon left a 22-year military career and stepped into entrepreneurship, he brought discipline and leadership with him. What he discovered quickly, though, was that discipline alone doesn't build a company. Like many new entrepreneurs, he was busy. Very busy. But busy didn't mean structured. He realized something that most founders eventually learn the hard way: being busy in your business does not build a business. You can answer emails all day. You can tweak branding, post on social media, and chase opportunities. But without structure underneath those actions, you're just reacting — not building. That realization changed everything. Instead of chasing more tactics, he looked for clarity — and found it by connecting with someone who already had a blueprint. Momentum without structure leads to burnout. Structure without momentum leads to stagnation. The entrepreneurial mindset requires both — in the right order. Why Your First Mentor Doesn't Need to Be in Your Industry There's a common mistake new entrepreneurs make: assuming they need a mentor who does exactly what they do. Antwon disagrees — at least in the beginning. When you're building the foundation of a business, the fundamentals are universal. Every business needs clear goals, defined processes, the right mindset, and repeatable systems. At the early stage, what you need most isn't industry secrets — it's business fundamentals. He sees too many entrepreneurs jumping into advanced marketing tactics before they've validated their structure. They're polishing something that hasn't been built properly yet. It's like trying to optimize a machine that hasn't been assembled. Don't work on Phase 3 problems while you're still in Phase 1. Build proof of principle first. Everything else comes after. Once your foundation is solid and revenue is predictable, niche-specific coaching becomes powerful. But without a base, advanced tactics won't stick. The $10K Rule and the Leverage Phase One of the most practical insights from this conversation is Antwon's revenue-based approach to scaling. Up to around $10K per month, many entrepreneurs can manage operations solo — if they have structure. Beyond that point, things change. The workload compounds, communication increases, tasks multiply. Growth creates friction. That's where leverage becomes necessary. Instead of calling it "growth mode," Antwon frames it as entering the leverage phase — and that shift in language matters. Leverage means delegation, systems that support scale, clear onboarding, and defined ownership. Without it, revenue growth just creates exhaustion. With it, growth becomes sustainable. Hiring help isn't about spending money. It's about buying back focus and multiplying capacity. Why Hiring a VA Feels Hard — and How to Fix It For many entrepreneurs, hiring a virtual assistant feels overwhelming. There's hesitation: Will they understand what I need? Is it worth the cost? Will this just create more work for me? Antwon has lived through that. In the early stages, bringing on VAs felt like adding another job to his plate — confusion, repetition, miscommunication. The problem wasn't the VA. It was the lack of onboarding and structure. So he built a system. Now, every VA goes through a clear onboarding process, alignment with company mission and goals, defined task management inside tools like Monday or Asana, and screen-recorded walkthroughs for clarity. Instead of typing long explanations, he records a short screen demo showing exactly what he wants done and attaches it to the task. That single change reduced confusion dramatically. He also emphasizes ownership — VAs aren't treated like task robots, they're treated like team members. That shift alone changes performance. Stop Networking to Sell — Start Networking to Serve Too many entrepreneurs approach networking with one goal: sell. Antwon flips that completely. When he meets someone new, he focuses on learning who they are, understanding what partners they're looking for, offering value first, and leveraging connections instead of pushing services. He even shared a small but practical tactic he picked up in a free mastermind group — placing a QR code on his Zoom background so people could instantly access his information. Not a sales pitch. A friction reducer. And those small adjustments compound over time. The strongest networks aren't built on transactions. They're built on trust, value, and long-term reciprocity. Side Hustle vs. Company: The Real Mindset Shift One of the most important distinctions Antwon makes is between running a business and building a company. A business depends on you. A company operates beyond you. A business can generate income. A company can generate legacy. If your goal is supplemental income, operating as a side hustle may be fine. But if your goal is generational wealth or long-term impact, the mindset must shift. You have to design something that can function without your constant involvement — documented systems, delegated responsibilities, clear structure, leadership beyond yourself. And that shift starts internally. Because the hardest part of entrepreneurship isn't marketing or operations. It's believing you don't have to do it all yourself. The Real Blocker Is Mindset Throughout this episode, one theme keeps resurfacing: mindset is the biggest barrier. Not lack of information. Not a lack of opportunity. Mindset. Entrepreneurs stall because they listen to too many voices, hesitate to start, refuse to delegate, treat a business like a hobby, or avoid structure. Once the mindset shifts, everything else becomes simpler. Not easy — but simpler. Final Takeaway If you feel stuck in your business right now, ask yourself: Are you building something structured — or just staying busy? Have you proven your foundation? Have you entered the leverage phase? Or are you still operating like a side hustle when your goal is a company? Forward momentum doesn't come from more hustle. It comes from clarity, structure, and the willingness to step into the next phase of growth. That's the entrepreneurial mindset shift that changes everything.

Why Adaptability, Relationships, and People Will Define the Next Era of Arts Leadership Arts leaders today are navigating constant disruption. Economic pressure, rapid technological change, and shifting audience behavior have made the environment far more complex than the one many arts organizations were originally built for. Many institutions are still operating on 20th-century funding models while facing 21st-century realities.  So the question becomes: what distinguishes organizations that adapt and grow from those that struggle? This episode explores the leadership mindset behind resilient organizations. The leaders who are thriving aren't waiting for stability to return. They use disruption as a signal to examine the cracks in their foundation (from programming and technology to staffing models and audience relationships) and they invest intentionally to strengthen those areas.  The conversation highlights three core ideas: Entrepreneurial agility is no longer optional. The sector has experienced continuous change, from digital transformation to the pandemic, and leaders must keep learning, testing, and adjusting. People are the most controllable driver of sustainability. Organizations cannot control government funding or macroeconomic conditions, but they can invest in relationships with audiences, donors, and staff.  Discipline turns strategy into results. The organizations emerging stronger are the ones that align teams, act on data, and consistently execute their plans. Leadership today requires more than operational management. It requires curiosity, courage, and the willingness to rethink long-standing assumptions about how arts organizations operate. 

This week on Anything But Average Mondays, Brittany and Christina are back with one of those conversations that starts with spilled coffee and somehow ends up in a very real conversation about friendship, capacity, busy seasons, and the pressure we put on ourselves. They dive into the question: Are busy friends better friends? And like most real-life conversations, the answer isn't black and white. From packed schedules and changing priorities to how friendship looks in different seasons of life, this episode is a reminder that being busy does not make someone a better friend — and being unavailable sometimes does not make someone a bad one either. They also chat about travel life, being present in different environments, rest, relationships, screenshot chaos, eating habits when you're home alone, simple protein-packed meals, and why so many women need to stop judging themselves so harshly. This one feels like sitting in on a real girlfriend conversation — honest, funny, relatable, and full of little reminders we all need.

A Big Four firm just entered the U.S. legal market and the ripple effects could reshape how law is practiced, priced, and powered by technology. Tom Greenaway, Principal of KPMG Law US, joins Chris Batz and Howard Rosenberg to explore what that move signals for the profession. Corporate law departments face rising volume, flat headcount, and pressure to cut costs. The traditional billable hour model strains under that weight. So what happens when a global accounting and consulting platform builds a law firm designed for scale from the start? Tom explains how KPMG Law US focuses on managed services, technology integration, and lowering unit cost through platform thinking rather than isolated solutions. The conversation also turns to talent and culture. What kind of lawyer succeeds in a multidisciplinary environment that includes technologists, data scientists, and accountants? How do firms balance professional rigor with rapid change? As AI adoption becomes measurable and enterprise platforms shape how businesses operate, the bigger question emerges: will law evolve alongside the systems that power modern companies, or risk falling behind them?   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 The Launch of KPMG Law US and Why It Matters 04:46 Technology, AI, and the Changing Legal Delivery Model 11:50 The Future of Legal Staffing and Talent Strategy 18:03 Growth Strategy, Market Positioning, and Industry Impact 21:26 The Future of the Legal Industry and Big Four Influence Connect with Tom Greenaway: Connect with Tom on LinkedIn Tom's Company Web Profile KPMG Global Legal Business Services    Connect with Howard Rosenberg: Connect with Howard on LinkedIn Howard's Company Web Profile   Connect with Chris Batz: Connect with Chris on LinkedIn  Follow Columbus Street on LinkedIn Columbus Street Website  MergerWatch Website Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm
