Research from the Baroni center for government contracting at the George Mason University suggests that the defense industrial base is healthy, that competition remains strong, and companies are, in fact, not exiting the market, but shifting their approaches to ensure success. For more on the new research, Federal News Network's Jason Miller joins me now.

On today's episode, host Pete Moore sits down with Emma and Ben Stallworthy, the husband and wife team behind the Melbourne-based, Your Reformer. With a foundation built on serial entrepreneurship and a huge passion for Pilates, Emma and Ben share their story from reviving a rundown health club to scaling a successful chain of gyms, and ultimately selling their business to a major player. They dive into the challenges of pivoting from brick-and-mortar to launching their own Pilates equipment and digital content venture, all while (trying!) to balance family life, married life, and staying true to their values. Listen now for some candid conversations about risk-taking, jumping on opportunities, and why they believe the future of wellness lies in making Pilates accessible anytime, anywhere, and for anyone. On knowing your bottom line during negotiations, Emma states, "Make sure you're equipped with the right advisors around what is a realistic valuation that you can have some wiggle room in negotiation to move with. You should know, what's my bottom line, what would I walk away from, and what am I comfortable with? This way, you can then go in there and be comfortable with either decision and have no regrets." Key themes discussed Building and scaling health clubs in Australia. Entrepreneurial journey and personal growth. Introducing reformer Pilates into gyms. Navigating acquisitions and business exits. Creating boutique wellness experiences within larger clubs. Transitioning to digital and at-home Pilates solutions. Balancing family life with business partnerships. A few key takeaways: 1. Entrepreneurial Spirit and Diverse Ventures: The couple's journey highlights their strong entrepreneurial drive. From purchasing a rundown club at 22, to experimenting with other unusual businesses, they've shown a knack for identifying and chasing new opportunities. Their evolution to focusing on one “core thing” (Pilates, with Your Reformer) demonstrates the power of learning, adaptation, and focus. 2. Building, Growing, and Exiting a Fitness Chain: They took a failing gym, revamped it, and eventually scaled to six clubs (Pinnacle Health Clubs) by innovating early—like introducing 24/7 access before it became common. This alone doubled their membership! Their ability to consistently listen to member needs and adapt offerings was essential for sustained growth, culminating in a successful exit to Viva Leisure. 3. Pilates and Boutique Wellness as a Growth Engine: The pair recognized Pilates—specifically Reformer Pilates—as a critical differentiator and a driver of future growth. By integrating boutique wellness elements into their clubs, they expanded the appeal and unlocked additional revenue, with up to 30% of members opting in for premium wellness options. 4. Navigating the Acquisition Process: Emma and Ben shared valuable advice on selling a business: When a strategic buyer comes with an offer, don't let personal attachment cloud your judgment! They stressed the importance of getting solid advice, knowing your worth, negotiating from a position of strength, and recognizing that the first offer is often the best. Detaching emotionally and staying commercially minded is crucial. 5. Transitioning to Product and Digital Solutions: After their exit, they transitioned from brick-and-mortar gyms to manufacturing reformer Pilates machines and digital solutions, supplying both commercial facilities and the home market. Your Reformer meets the needs of major gym chains to home users, making Pilates more accessible without breaching any non-compete. They've combined design, content, and hardware into user-focused solutions, leveraging insights from hands-on, member-facing experience.

Drawing from deep historical context and modern application, Nash equips people with tools to lawfully navigate outside of state-controlled systems. Whether it's marriage, travel, taxation, or trust law, Nash brings clarity to the confusing overlap between public statutes and private rights. Episode SummaryMost people navigate life within the commercial system—paying taxes, signing contracts, applying for licenses—without realizing there's an older, lawful remedy available to them: equity. In this episode, Nash from CrowsFoot.info joins Peter King to demystify what equity jurisdiction really is—not as something in opposition to statutory law, but as a complementary remedy designed to protect the private rights of the individual.Together, they explore how trust law, biblical principles, and ancient equity offer a way to reclaim your position as a responsible, self-governing man or woman of honor. This is not about rejecting the system—it's about understanding it fully so you can navigate it with confidence and integrity.In This Episode, You'll Discover...What equity really means—and why it predates modern lawHow jurisdiction is established (and how to challenge it)The legal and spiritual cost of licenses and state permissionWhy the state becomes a third party in your marriage (and how to stop it)The difference between the “public” and “private” and how to live lawfully in the latterHow trust law, usufruct, and equitable maxims still affect your rights todayTools to begin separating yourself from commercial entanglements Connect with NashWebsite: Crowsfoot.info Call to ActionIf you've ever felt unequipped to operate lawfully and peacefully within the modern system, this episode will reframe everything. Equity isn't rebellion—it's restoration. Share this episode with someone curious about their rights, and visit Crow's Foot to begin the journey of standing in honor.

Too many business owners stay in the game too long, clinging to stress, burnout, or an outdated identity because they're unsure of what's next. Others rush into an exit thinking it'll solve everything, only to realize the money didn't bring clarity—or peace. In this episode, you'll hear from Gary and Derek—two men who've navigated the emotional dynamics of exiting their businesses. One built his company from the ground up and sold it after more than 30 years. The other has gone through four exits and knows what it's like to buy in with the clear intention of getting out. They talk openly about the warning signs they ignored, the personal toll of hanging on too long, and the surprising relief that came from admitting, “I'm done.” You'll also hear how The Powerful Man played a crucial role in helping them step into what's next—with intention, confidence, and clarity. In this episode, you'll get a behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to leave a business well. Not just with a solid deal—but with your marriage, your health, and your purpose intact. If you've been quietly wondering, “Is it time to let go?”... this conversation is your answer. Want to save your marriage without endless talking or therapy?

In this episode of Grow a Small Business, host Troy Trewin engages in an insightful conversation with Sari Davidson, founder of Fractional Founders. Sari shares her entrepreneurial journey, beginning with the establishment of Boogan Head, a baby products company, in 2007, through to its successful acquisition in 2024. Boogan Head's product line, which included pacifier clips, was distributed through major retailers such as Walmart and Target, achieving annual revenues between $5 and $10 million with a team of nine full-time employees. During the discussion, Sari underscores the significance of authenticity in marketing and addresses the complexities of scaling a business, particularly the challenges posed by Walmart's markdown policies.

And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to Sari Davidson, the hardest aspects of growing a small business are time and money. Limited resources make it challenging to fund people, marketing, production, and essential activities like trade shows. Additionally, when owners try to do everything themselves, it often leads to burnout. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Sari Davidson finds "The 4-Hour Workweek" by Tim Ferriss impactful. She has implemented principles from the book to create balance and efficiency in both her past and current businesses. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Sari Davidson highly values in-person learning opportunities, such as regional conferences and events from organizations like EO (Entrepreneur Organization). While she isn't a fan of online courses, she loves podcasts and incorporates them into her daily routine to gain insights on business and health. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Sari Davidson emphasizes the power of AI tools like Canva and Adobe, especially for small businesses. These tools help create professional-quality outputs at a low cost, enabling businesses to compete effectively. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business?

Ancient yoga texts call it sama-darshana—equal vision. It's the ability to see the soul in every being, regardless of their body, background, or even behavior. And according to the sages, it's not just a lofty idea—it's the very foundation of a life well-lived. Here's the twist: it's not just the moral thing to do—it's the key to happiness, peace of mind, and, ultimately, a graceful exit from this world. In contrast, the pursuit of material fulfillment becomes a path of emptiness. Listen in as Raghunath and Kaustubha reflect on the yogi's mindset: to live in a way that places no one else in difficulty, and to love in a way that clears the heart of all fear and resentment. Key Highlights: • Sama-darshana—the yogic practice of seeing beyond externals • Why a life of non-harm and kindness clears the path to liberation • “My name is King Yayati, and I'm a sex addict.” • How material desire drives us to harm even those we love • How spiritual vision helps us let go—without fear or bitterness • And how chasing sense gratification will make a goat out of us.
