In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery, I talk about momentum, certainty, and why the next level of growth always demands a higher standard from us. As we head into a new year, I can feel it clearly. This organization is not slowing down. We are just getting started. After years of grit, hard decisions, and building when it was uncomfortable, everything is beginning to align. And that alignment comes from one thing above all else. Internal certainty. Over the last decade, I have learned that confidence does not come from positive thinking or hoping things work out. It comes from conditioning yourself to win. Showing up for the small commitments. Executing on what you said you would do. Setting targets and hitting them over and over again. That repetition creates belief. And belief creates momentum. When obstacles show up, and they always do, certainty keeps you grounded because you know it is only a matter of time before you figure it out. As an organization, we are very different than we were five years ago. The systems are sharper. The execution is faster. The scale is bigger. But the core has never changed. The belief system. The faith. The work ethic. What has changed is the number of people willing to operate at that level together. When you surround yourself with individuals who show up regardless of how they feel, momentum multiplies. Wins stack faster. Growth accelerates. And suddenly what once felt impossible becomes the next logical step. Opening a new office is not about convenience or expansion for the sake of expansion. It is a declaration. It is a statement that we are here to build something lasting. That we are willing to take on more responsibility, more pressure, and more challenges because that is what growth requires. I know there will be stress. I know there will be moments where it feels heavy. But I also know that every new standard feels foreign at first. And if you stay consistent, clarity always follows. What I want people to understand is this. Growth is never about becoming someone else. It is about deciding who you are and refusing to shrink back. When you stop challenging yourself, when you choose comfort over progress, motivation fades. The work slows down. And before you know it, you are watching others pass you by. That feeling is far worse than any challenge that comes from going all in. There is a cost to action, but there is a bigger cost to doing nothing. If something is on your heart and soul, and you have done the work to build the foundation, you owe it to yourself and your family to move forward. Not from emotion. Not from pressure. But from certainty. Certainty that you will not quit. Certainty that you will figure it out. Certainty that this is who you are. As we step into what is next, I want people to take an honest look at the environment around them. The support. The leadership. The access. This is not common. And it is not accidental. It is built by people who refuse to slow down, who hold the line, and who continue to show up even when it would be easier not to. That is what creates something special. And that is what makes the next chapter inevitable. Reader Reflection Questions Where in your life or business are you playing it safe instead of stepping into the next standard you know you are capable of What daily commitments are you either honoring or avoiding that are shaping your level of certainty If you truly decided that this is who you are now, what decision would you stop postponing Notable Quotes "Internal certainty comes from conditioning yourself to win on a consistent basis." "There is a bigger cost to doing nothing than there is to taking the risk." "This is not about who I want to become. This is who I am." Follow A.Z.

Send us a textSlow seasons happen in every industry, and the salon industry is no exception. But while slow periods are predictable, panic is optional.In this episode, we talk about why seasonal slowdowns shouldn't feel shocking, why reacting emotionally makes things worse, and how both salon owners and stylists can prepare ahead of time instead of scrambling at the last minute. We break down the difference between panic and passivity, why discounting usually backfires, and how to build systems that keep your business steady year after year.We also share practical ways to use slow seasons productively: tightening systems, improving consultations, planning financially, strengthening client relationships, and maintaining strong team morale. Slow doesn't mean broken; it means you have information, time, and opportunity to improve your business.Your business should serve you, so that you can serve others.Slow seasons don't have to derail you — they can actually make your business stronger.Key TakeawaysSlow seasons are predictable patterns, not sudden failures.Panic and passivity are both reactive — leadership is proactive.Data and year-over-year numbers matter more than feelings.Planning removes stress when business slows.Discounts attract price-first clients, not loyal ones.Strong consultations and rebooking conversations drive stability.Marketing works when it's consistent, not reactive.Slow periods are ideal for systems, training, and leadership work.Small experience upgrades build massive client loyalty.Panic is optional — preparation is powerful.Time Stamps00:00 — Welcome + holiday context 02:00 — Jen's opening take: systems fail (even trash bags) 05:00 — Todd's opening take: gratitude, perspective, slowing down 07:00 — Slow seasons are patterns, not emergencies 09:00 — Panic vs passivity (and why neither works) 11:00 — Seasonality, weather, and predictable slowdowns 13:00 — Why confirmation bias online keeps owners stuck 15:00 — What salon owners can work on during slow periods 18:00 — Budgeting, staffing, reserves, and planning ahead 21:00 — Marketing consistency vs last-minute scrambling 23:00 — Opportunities hidden inside open schedule space 25:00 — What stylists can do to prepare before slow seasons 27:00 — Rebooking conversations that actually work 29:00 — Retention, education, referrals, and visibility 31:00 — Executing during slow seasons without panicking 33:00 — Leadership, morale, and coaching during downtime 35:00 — Social media is not a panic button 37:00 — Why discounting hurts more than it helps 41:00 — Client experience upgrades that don't involve discounts 44:00 — Small details that create loyalty 46:00 — Final thoughts: plan, embrace, panic is optionalLinks and Stuff:Our Newsletter Mentoring InquiriesFind more of our things:InstagramHello Hair Pro Website

PREVIEW China's Technocratic Leadership: Efficiency vs. Brittle Decision-Making. John Kitch discusses Dan Wong'sbook Breakneck, which views Chinese leaders as engineers skilled at rapidly executing plans and directing vast resources, which has helped China rise up the value chain. However, Wong argues, and Kitch agrees, that using a purely technocratic mindset to handle complex human and political problems is a major downside. This approach results in leadership that lacks imagination and is brittle and inflexible in its decision-making. Guest: John Kitch.

You've been staring at your blog for months (maybe years), convinced you picked the wrong blog niche. You watch other bloggers succeed in what looks like your exact space while you're stuck refreshing analytics and wondering if you should rebrand. Again.Here's the uncomfortable truth nobody wants to hear: your niche probably isn't the problem. Your execution is.In this episode, I'm breaking down why 80% of blogs fail within 18 months (spoiler: niche selection isn't even on the list), sharing the painful story of how I rebranded three times before I figured this out, and revealing the research that proves execution quality beats niche selection almost every single time.Plus, I'm sharing something I've never done before: I'm building The Productive Blogger Method in real-time with 10 founding members who are done making excuses about their niche and ready to fix their execution problem. This isn't a polished course. This is me building the execution system bloggers actually need, together with women who are ready to stop spinning.If you've ever convinced yourself you need to start over with a new niche, this episode will either relieve you or make you uncomfortable. Probably both.Listen if you:Keep questioning whether you picked the right nicheHave rebranded or considered rebranding in the last yearWork hard on your blog but see minimal resultsKnow what to do but can't seem to do it consistentlyWonder why other bloggers succeed in "your" niche while you struggleEpisode Highlights (Pull Quotes):"The niche was never the problem. My inability to stick with anything long enough to see it compound was the problem.""You can have all the information in the world. You can prompt AI for the perfect content strategy. But if you're not consistently executing on the right tasks, none of it matters.""Success doesn't follow the people who research niches the longest. It follows the people who pick something viable and execute consistently until it works.""80% of blogs fail within 18 months. When researchers dig into the causes, you know what they find? Inconsistent publishing. Poor content quality. Inadequate promotion. Giving up too soon. Niche selection doesn't even make the list.""You're not failing because you chose gardening instead of home organization. You're failing because you don't have a system that tells you what to execute today to make money tomorrow.""Traffic without conversion architecture is just noise.""The missing piece isn't knowledge. It's the system and discipline to execute consistently on what you already know.""Your niche probably isn't holding you back. The 47 missing pieces in your execution are holding you back."Key Takeaways:1. Research proves niche isn't the problem80% of blogs fail within 18 months, but niche selection never makes the list of failure causesHubSpot study: 71% of unsuccessful bloggers lack documented content strategy vs. 36% of successful onesContent Marketing Institute: 74% who improved results did so through strategy refinement, not niche changes2.

Without vision, you're just reacting.Work pulls you in a dozen directions. Every day, there are fires to fight, decisions to make, and competing demands on your time and attention.And if you don't have a clear vision for your organization AND for your career, you lose perspective. ❌ You end up busy but directionless. ❌ Executing but not building toward anything. ❌ Reacting instead of leading.That's not sustainable.I see this all the time with executives: They're great at execution. But when I ask them, "What's your vision? Where are you taking this organization? Where are you taking your career?"...Vague reply....They've been so focused on the day-to-day that they've lost sight of the destination.
The buzzword in Brussels is simplification. In reality it's a euphemism for sweeping deregulation and it marks a dramatic U-turn for the European Union. For decades, the EU prided itself on being a regulatory superpower, capable of extending its influence through protective and demanding regulation. That's now changing. A year ago Mario Draghi, the former president of the European Central Bank, dusted off the timeworn idea of cutting red tape. Draghi's message was eagerly embraced by many EU leaders, many from conservative and far-right parties, and many of them increasingly aligned with Trumpian ideas on blocking migrants, ignoring the environment and canceling overseas aid. Draghi's ideas have since snowballed. In the works are measures to water down laws on everything from technology and chemicals to farming and finance. Executing on those plans, and more, is European Commission president Ursula Von der Leyen. She's been using the deregulation mantra to deflect criticism from her far-right rivals and to placate US tech giants and Donald Trump and his threats to abandon Europe militarily. To be sure deregulation is having a moment. In Argentina, in India, and in the US where Elon Musk's DOGE dismantled entire agencies, almost certainly illegally, and where Russ Vought at Trump's budget office says wants to put civil servants in trauma. The approach in Europe is far less blunt and belligerent. But there are significant parallels according to Alberto Alemanno, the law professor at HEC Paris and the founder of The Good Lobby. Alberto sees an ideological and methodological alignment across the Atlantic that includes the sidelining of legislators, the privileging of executive fiat, and the possible DOGE-style downsizing of the European Commission. Alberto also warns that von der Leyen is "pushing towards illegality" by bundling together deregulatory measures in so called omnibus laws that bypass the usual channels of evidence-based policymaking and of democratic consent. The European Ombudsman, Teresa Anjinho, has opened an investigation into the omnibus process. But her opinions are non-binding. Meanwhile EU governments are pushing for continuous rollbacks, and von der Leyen has promised to deliver. But there is a deeper unease here, that simplification is not just about deregulation, or pandering to Trump, or the far right, rather that simplification will end up undermining the capacity and legitimacy of EU administration itself. A pair of US academics have described this phenomenon as ungoverning, discrediting institutions and the machinery of government and creating circumstances where enforcement and the rule of law suffer and authoritarians can thrive. Alberto doesn't see the quite the same deliberate campaign in Europe as in the US. But he warns that von der Leyen's willingness to take a chainsaw to previously agreed laws — and to act as little more than the executor of member states' demands — is a kind of dereliction of duty that risks permanently weakening the Union at a moment when many Europeans are looking for answers beyond national borders. As Alberto puts it: the EU is becoming ungoverned — by its own political class.Support the show

Ever wondered if compassion and decisive leadership can coexist? In this powerful conversation with Cal Riley, combat veteran, EOS Implementer, and author of "Entrepreneurial Compassion," Cam and Otis explore what it really means to lead with both strength and heart."It's not compassionate to hold on to somebody if they're not a good fit," Cal explains, challenging the common misconception that compassionate leadership means avoiding tough decisions. "You're doing them a disservice. You're in pain. They're in pain... The whole team sees it."From discussing how EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) helps leaders understand that "not everybody is good at everything" to sharing his deeply personal mission to create a million compassionate leaders and prevent 100,000 suicides, Cal offers a refreshing perspective on leadership that balances accountability with genuine care.Whether you're a business owner struggling with difficult personnel decisions or a leader looking to create a healthier company culture, Cal's insights on entrepreneurial compassion provide a roadmap for leading differently. Plus, all proceeds from his book go to Stop Soldier Suicide—making this conversation not just informative, but potentially life-saving.More About Cal:Cal Riley is a leadership coach, entrepreneur, and combat veteran who teaches leaders how to serve with both strength and compassion.

Rebecca Thompson transformed her first real estate investment by strategically subdividing a Philadelphia duplex.
