Behind the glamorous travel and beautiful houses of successful entrepreneurship lie sleepless nights, financial heartaches, and lessons bought with million-dollar losses. In this episode, Kris Krohn reveals his seven absolute standards for winning in business. Discover why optimization makes far more money than chasing the next shiny toy, and how establishing strict boundaries for your time will transform you from an overwhelmed operator into a successful leader.
In this episode, Travis Chappell and producer Eric dive into one of the most debated topics in entrepreneurship: work-life balance. Inspired by comments from Poppy co-founder Allison Ellsworth about the sacrifices required to build a billion-dollar company, Travis breaks down why success looks different for everyone and why blindly following someone else's blueprint can lead to regret. This episode explores how entrepreneurs can align their priorities with their personal goals while still building meaningful wealth and freedom. On this episode we talk about: Whether building a billion-dollar company requires sacrificing work-life balance The difference between lifestyle businesses and venture-scale companies How to define success based on your personal goals instead of someone else's Why entrepreneurs should prioritize their time according to seasons of life Balancing business growth, family relationships, and personal health Top 3 Takeaways Your definition of success determines how you should structure your business and life. Not everyone wants—or needs—to build a billion-dollar company. Priorities should be aligned with your current season of life, but neglecting health or family completely often leads to long-term regret. Entrepreneurship should create freedom, not become a more demanding version of a traditional job unless that's intentionally part of your goal. Notable Quotes "You can't have three things that are equally number one priorities. That's not how a number one priority works." "Ruthlessly prioritize against your goal." "Money only solves your money problems, but it's easier to solve the rest of your problems when you've got money in the bank."

Annie Yatch is a serial entrepreneur and a transformational executive coach who works with founders, CEOs, and high-performing leaders who have mastered strategy and execution but still feel capped, exhausted, or disconnected. Building on her unique background as a counterterrorism analyst, Annie developed the ability to identify invisible threats before they cause visible damage—a skill she now applies to leadership, helping executives uncover subconscious patterns, nervous system overload, and relational instability that silently impact decision-making, authority, and revenue growth. After building multiple businesses herself while navigating extreme personal stress, Annie discovered that leadership breakdowns aren't caused by lack of strategy—but by instability in the operator.

In this episode, Mary Sullivan, co-founder of Sweet but Fearless, talks with Julie Ellis about her remarkable entrepreneurial journey, from co-founding Mabel's Labels to becoming an author, coach, speaker, and leadership coach focused on helping others create meaningful success. Julie discusses the relationships and mindset shifts that often separate people who achieve big things from those who remain stuck. Through her methodology centered around systems, processes, and people, she explains why sustainable success requires more than hustle alone. The conversation also explores how entrepreneurs can identify roadblocks, evaluate whether they're spending their time wisely, and make intentional changes that move them forward. As the author of "Big Gorgeous Goals," Julie also shares why we all need big gorgeous goals, the kind that feel exciting, uncomfortable, and even a little scary. Unlike the safe, tidy goals we know we can accomplish, these are the goals that stretch us, keep us awake at night, and challenge us to believe we are capable of more than we imagined.

Join her free health & longevity newsletter here: https://www.drvondawright.com/resources/aging-longevity Through decades of caring for women as an orthopedic sports surgeon, I've seen how many health challenges go unspoken. Body odor, vaginal health, and the shame and silence around them are not small issues. They affect confidence, relationships, and how women move through the world. In this conversation, Shannon and I explore how a simple clinical observation became a breakthrough in understanding how odor works on the body. We discuss why women were taught to mask symptoms instead of understanding their source and how deeply stigma has shaped the way they experience their own bodies. Shannon shares her journey from clinical practice to building products based on physiology rather than marketing myths. We also talk about the power of listening without judgment and giving women the language, knowledge, and permission to understand their bodies without embarrassment. What we cover: - How Shannon's clinical practice revealed a hidden but widespread problem for women - Why odor is a bacterial issue, not a hygiene failure - The difference between masking symptoms and addressing root causes - How shame has shaped women's health messaging for decades - Why the vulva, skin folds, and external body deserve the same scientific attention - What it takes to challenge medical dogma as a woman physician - The leap from medicine to entrepreneurship and the resistance along the way - Building products that respect women's intelligence and lived experience - Why listening to patients changes everything - How confidence, dignity, and health are deeply connected About Shannon Klingman: Dr Shannon Klingman is an OB-GYN, innovator, and founder of Lume. She brings a rare blend of clinical insight, scientific rigor, and fearless honesty to women's health.

In this episode of The Persistent Entrepreneur Podcast, David Hill interviews Lee Pepper, U.S. Army veteran and author of Never Outmatched, about the difference between marketing tactics and a real strategy. Lee shares military frameworks that translate directly into business growth, including Commander's Intent, the Anvil and Hammer approach, and how freedom of movement builds stronger teams and better execution. They also dig into why many founders get trapped by vanity metrics, how to pick KPIs that connect to revenue, and how to evaluate agencies using your business outcomes instead of their dashboards. The conversation also touches on AI's impact on search and buying behavior, and why business owners who ignore the shift risk waking up to a pipeline that quietly dried up. What you'll learn: How to separate tactics from strategy in marketing The Anvil and Hammer framework and how it applies to digital growth KPIs that matter more than likes, followers, and views How to stop letting other people's opinions derail your marketing plan How to evaluate agencies with outcome-based metrics Why AI is changing search and discovery faster than most founders realize Connect with Lee: neveroutmatchedbook.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/leepepper/ Instagram: @theLeePepper TikTok: Lee.Pepper Connect with David Hill: Website: https://www.davidhill.ai Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidihill YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/DavidHillcoach LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidihill TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@davidihill X (Twitter): https://twitter.com/davidihill Ring Leader AI Demo: Text or call 774-214-2076

Purchase our (audio) book Tandem: The married entrepreneurs' guide for greater work-life balance. https://www.thetandembook.com/ Download the 5 Daily Habits to Thrive in Tandem https://marriedentrepreneur.co/5-daily-habits-download Need some insight into how to balance it all? Schedule a free discovery call. https://marriedentrepreneur.co/lets-talk As the year winds down (or whenever you're listening), Robert and Kay Lee invite married entrepreneurs to pause and audit what's working—and what's quietly piling onto your calendar "just because." The danger isn't always failure… it's drift. When you never stop to evaluate, your schedule fills up, your energy gets spent on habits instead of priorities, and both marriage and business can slowly erode under nonstop momentum. They walk through a powerful set of reflection questions designed to help you celebrate progress (not just critique problems), gain clarity on your goals, and make smarter decisions with your time. Kay Lee shares personal growth around emotional triggers and learning not to take everything personally—especially in family relationships. Robert opens up about loosening perfectionism, taking more chances, and using "small steps" to reduce overwhelm—like their decision to test a possible move to Lake Norman one step at a time instead of forcing a massive all-or-nothing decision. The episode also highlights practical business lessons like testing demand safely (hello, waitlists) and learning to ask for what you want—whether it's closing a deal, requesting introductions, or opening doors through relationships. They wrap with meaningful experiences from the past 90 days: building local community through fun gatherings for married business owners, and serving local businesses impacted by the devastating Southern California fires—offering clarity, encouragement, and simple marketing direction when life feels foggy. Key Takeaways If you don't audit your life, your calendar will audit you. Reflection helps you remove what's no longer serving you—before "busy" becomes your default. Celebrate small wins, not just big milestones. Most entrepreneurs can spot failures instantly—this episode helps you build balance and sanity by naming what's working. Small steps reduce big fear. Especially for perfectionists, progress comes easier when you create a "safe" next step instead of trying to solve everything at once. Test demand before you invest. A waitlist is a simple way to validate interest before you commit time, money, or a big launch. Ask for what you want. Whether in business, relationships, or networking—doors open faster when you stop hoping and start asking. Community is a strategy, not a luxury. Fun, face-to-face connection isn't optional for thriving—it's fuel for married entrepreneurs. Encouragement is leadership. When people are overwhelmed or recovering from loss, clarity + reassurance can be the most meaningful "next step." Reflection Questions for Married Entrepreneurs (for you and your spouse): How have I grown as a person over the past three years? What are the biggest things that I've learned in the past 12 months? What are 10 important things I've accomplished in the past 12 months? What meaningful experiences have I had in the past 90 days? How am I clearer on my goals and vision than I was 90 days ago? In what ways is my life different and better than 30 days ago? What important progress have I made in the past seven days? What progress have I made in the past 24 hours?
