    #912 Perfection is out. Authenticity is in. As the world is flooded with polished content and AI noise, this is becoming increasingly true every day. That's why the more you edit yourself, the more you'll blend in. It's also why, if you show your real self, you'll stand out and attract a community of superfans! So how do you fight back against the slop and build a personal brand? In this episode, I look at the countermovement emerging in response to our artificial modern landscape. In fact, my inspiration for this episode comes from Medieval Mindset on YouTube labeling this as the Second Renaissance. I love that idea because it means that now is the best time to show up and lead the charge. You'd do exactly that by participating in something like my 30-day video challenge.

    140. Face The Storm. Become Something Else: Activate The Bison Theory Of Transformation!

    iDigress with Troy Sandidge

    Play Episode Listen Later Jan 28, 2026 21:06


    Let's unpack a truth most people don't want to admit: the thing you're avoiding is action. When you leave inaction untouched, it does not sit quietly. It grows. It drains you. And it quietly reshapes your life through mental drag, stress, and procrastination. Unaddressed conversations don't sit still. Ignored decisions don't pause. Delayed action doesn't disappear. It compounds. It leaks energy, creates anxiety, and slowly trains your nervous system to stay stuck. In this episode, Troy introduces the Bison Theory, a counterintuitive truth rooted in real behavior: while most animals run away from storms and stay trapped in them longer, bison run straight into the storm, shortening how long they suffer. This episode isn't about hype or grit for grit's sake. It's about why facing the thing you're avoiding is the fastest path to transformation, and how movement, not certainty, is what breaks the loop. If you've felt the weight of indecision, the drag of unfinished business, or the mental exhaustion of too many open loops, this conversation will feel uncomfortably familiar in the best way.This Episode Covers:Why avoidance is active, not neutral, and how it quietly compounds stressHow “direction determines duration” when it comes to pain and changeWhy facing the storm creates momentum even before clarity shows upHow anticipation of pain often hurts longer than the pain itselfThe real reason action restores energy faster than motivation ever willHow to stop negotiating with reality and start reclaiming agencyWhy transformation begins the moment you turn toward what you've been running fromBeyond The Episode Gems:Subscribe To My New Weekly LinkedIn Newsletter: Strategize.

    Ever set a production goal that felt exciting, then realized the math didn't support it? We walk through a clear, no-fluff framework that turns revenue wishes into achievable targets by anchoring everything to one number: dollar per clinical hour. From there, we test whether your current systems can carry that load—diagnosis habits, treatment acceptance, and patient volume—and show how small, targeted adjustments create outsized gains without adding chaos to your week.We start by reverse-engineering annual revenue into a realistic hourly target and explain why that figure becomes your true north for scheduling, staffing, and time off. Then we dig into the three levers of growth. First, diagnosis: how to set ethical, consistent criteria, present risk clearly, and avoid the trap of under-diagnosing teeth at obvious risk of catastrophic fracture. Second, case acceptance: practical scripts and front-desk tactics for surfacing objections, clarifying value, and making financing easy so more patients say yes to care they need. Third, volume: when and how to expand through marketing, better phone conversion, airtight recall, and full hygiene capacity without burning out your team.The payoff is predictability. We show how to translate your dollar-per-hour into a block schedule that builds steady production days rather than volatile peaks and valleys. By aligning each provider—including hygiene—to a defined target and a purpose-built template, you reduce stress, hit goal consistently, and reclaim control of your calendar. You'll walk away ready to set numbers that make sense, diagnose with confidence, lift acceptance with simple training, and choose whether to grow through volume—on your own terms.  SET UP A CONSULTATION WITH GARY @ LEGALLY MINE CLICK HERE Take Control of Your Practice and Your Life We help dentists take more time off while making more money through systematization, team empowerment, and creating leadership teams.

    In this solo kickoff to 2026, Christina reflects on the creative resistance she's been feeling and how even positive routines, like her nearly six-year streak of daily walks, can start to create stagnation. A podcast reminded her that growth often requires breaking our own patterns. That insight collided with a pop-culture moment (yes, the Brooklyn Beckham drama) to spark a bigger conversation about how social media pressures us to perform, exaggerate, and air conflict publicly. Her takeaway: real alignment comes from personal responsibility, knowing what you stand for, and not feeling obligated to fight every battle for the sake of optics. If you enjoyed this episode, make sure and give us a five star rating  and leave us a comment on iTunes, Podcast Addict, Podchaser and Castbox about what you'd like us to talk about that will help you realize that at any moment, any day, you too can decide, it's your turn!

    Things are suddenly moving fast at Sarah Segal's San Francisco PR firm. Several new clients look likely to sign on, and for the first time in a while, growth feels real. Which leaves Sarah with a familiar, nerve-racking question: Do you hire before the work arrives—or wait until the revenue is actually in the door? If she hires now, she may have to cut her own pay until the new business materializes. And there's no guarantee it will. She still remembers the last downturn, when she had to lay off people she cared about—and she's determined not to repeat that experience. But if she waits and the clients do sign, she risks something else: overloading her existing team, burning people out, and falling behind before she can recruit and train new hires. The pressure is even higher because Sarah has already set an aggressive revenue goal for 2026.Plus: Jaci Russo explains why she's adopted a different approach to planning and budgeting. Instead of guessing how much she can afford to spend, Jaci is changing the order of the math. After revisiting Mike Michalowicz's Profit First—prompted by a story highlighted in the 21 Hats Morning Report—she's begun setting profit targets first and forcing every other decision, including hiring, to fit around them. It's only been a few weeks, but Jaci says the shift is already changing how she thinks about risk, growth, and what she can actually afford.

    Have you ever hesitated to call yourself a speaker… or a thought leader… even though you know you have something important to say?I see it all the time: brilliant women who have delivered keynotes, led workshops, facilitated panels, taught classes, and spoken on stages — yet still say, “I'm not a speaker.” Sound familiar?So in this episode, I'm gently (okay, maybe a little lovingly persuasively) challenging you to rethink that hesitation.We dig into why so many women resist claiming the identity of speaker and thought leader, what's really happening beneath the surface, and — most importantly — how to start shifting that identity in a way that feels authentic, empowering, and aligned with who you truly are.I also share something personal: my own struggle with claiming the identity of writer as I work on my book. Yep, even after hundreds of podcast episodes, years of speaking, and decades of communication work, identity shifts can still feel vulnerable. You're in good company.In this episode, you'll learn:Why women often resist calling themselves speakers and thought leadersHow comparison and perfectionism quietly keep us stuckThe surprising psychology behind identity shifts (inspired by Atomic Habits)Simple, concrete steps you can take right now to start owning your voiceWhy claiming your identity isn't about ego — it's about impactI also share practical actions you can take today — from small LinkedIn tweaks to mindset shifts — that will help you step into your role as a visible leader with more confidence and ease.And because I love a powerful real-world example, I read a moving testimonial from one of our retreat clients that beautifully illustrates what happens when women finally own their voice and presence.If you've ever felt like you're playing small, waiting until you're “ready,” or hesitating to fully step into your visibility, this episode is your loving nudge forward.Because the truth is: we need your voice.This episode originally aired as episode 391 on May 6, 2024.Links:Show notes at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/391/ Discover your Speaker Archetype by taking our free quiz at https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/quiz/Enroll in our Thought Leader Academy: https://www.speakingyourbrand.com/academy/ Connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carolcoxBook mentioned “Atomic Habits”: https://www.amazon.com/Atomic-Habits-Proven-Build-Break-ebook/dp/B07D23CFGR/ Related Podcast Episodes:Episode 371: What to Include in Your Speaker Video Reel and Speaker PageEpisode 407: Building Your Speaking Platform as an Author (Even If You're an Introvert!) with Tiffany HawkEpisode 257: Writing a Book Gives Your Ideas Depth and Longevity with Tiffany HawkEpisode 301: Why We Get Imposter Syndrome and What to Do About It with Melody Wilding

    Nine out of ten startups fail, yet Europe keeps funding them the same way.Governments replace judgment with bureaucracy, capital replaces experience, and failure is misunderstood instead of learned from.This conversation exposes why venture capital is a profession, not a policy tool — and why getting this wrong quietly kills innovation.In this episode, Jim Pulcrano, Adjunct Professor at IMD and longtime venture investor, explains why most venture capital systems fail before capital is even deployed.Drawing on four decades across Silicon Valley, Europe, and academia, Jim dismantles the myth that VC success comes from spreadsheets, credentials, or government programs. Instead, he shows why pattern recognition, lived experience, and exposure to failure are the real differentiators.As Jim puts it:(01:13:27) “Silicon Valley is the world's capital of failure — and also the capital of learning.”That mindset difference explains why Europe struggles to scale founders, why governments unintentionally create zombie companies, and why operators consistently outperform theorists when backing the next generation of companies.This is not a motivational episode. It's a structural diagnosis of how innovation ecosystems actually work — and where Europe still gets in its own way.
