Perry Belcher is a digital marketing icon, co-founder of DigitalMarketer and the Traffic & Conversion Summit, and behind over $1 billion in sales across companies and clients. With four successful exits, multiple industry-changing brands, and world-renowned copywriting and growth systems, Perry has built, lost, and rebuilt empires—always focused on actionable results, rapid pivots, and high-leverage business creation. On this episode we talk about: Perry's journey from hustling as a kid in Kentucky to legendary exits—and colossal setbacks How he built and lost fortunes in retail, manufacturing, e-commerce, and supplements The real difference between entrepreneurs who scale and those who stall: time management and ruthless revenue focus Frameworks for explosive growth—the power of rebranding, product/market fit, and “loop diversity” versus static funnels Tactical advice on building multiple income streams and knowing when (and how) to pivot or scale Top 3 Takeaways 1. Most business owners spend too much time on details that don't generate revenue—Perry's success comes from spending 80% on sales and growth, 20% on everything else.2. “Loop diversity”—selling more products, expanding markets, and using multiple channels—can unlock exponential business growth once the foundation is proven.3. Start lean, test, and only try to scale what works—then add offers, traffic, and markets when there's clear proof people want what you're selling. Notable Quotes “I've never met anybody that saved their way to financial freedom.” “Success isn't about what you know—it's about focusing on what actually pays.” “You need to do the things that don't scale before you scale, and fixate on revenue-driving activity above everything else.” Connect with Perry Belcher: LinkedIn: Perry Belcher https://perrybelcher.com/ Twitter/X: @perrybelcher ✖️✖️✖️✖️

QUOTES “You're gonna have to do things that sometimes don't feel good to get what you really want.” “The reason why it's so hard for us to figure out what it is that we really want is because as creatures we're designed to figure out how to stay safe.” “Usually we think our job is our ultimate 30,000 foot focus. It's not. Life is too short to make it all about our job.” “You're gonna have to do things that sometimes don't feel good to get what you really want.” "The idea is that it's not about trying to “fix it.” It's about how do I get beyond it? How do I make sure that it doesn't stop me in living the life that I wanna live?" "The more you don't want this thing to show up, it will show up. And the more you try to push it down, the stronger it pushes back." "If you focus on your purpose, the thing that you're hoping won't happen, will happen less - than if you get really hyperfocused on stopping thing." "People are craving the return to authenticity. The simplicity, the self, the inner... as technology continues to grow, the need for people to reconnect with their inner true self is gonna continue to grow." "We are social creatures. People act as mirrors... you wanna be around people that give you a certain type of wisdom, perspective, experience."

Hey friends, Chase here. If social media feels heavier than it used to, you're not imagining it. Infinite feeds, algorithm whiplash, and the pressure to post “one more thing” can drain the very creativity we're trying to share. Here's the shift: treat social media like a stage you step onto with intent—not a sofa you collapse into by default. Social Media as a Stage, Not a Sofa A stage has purpose: you arrive prepared, you deliver, you connect, you step off. A sofa invites scrolling, numbing, and losing track of the most precious resource you own—your attention. When you design systems that honor the stage, you get 90% of the upside with a fraction of the noise. Create before you consume. Get your ideas out of your head and into the world first. Then study the landscape with clear eyes: What worked? What didn't? What can you improve next rep? Here's what we get into: Systems resist their systems: your schedule, not the algorithm, sets when and how you show up Frameworks, not feeds: reusable prompts and formats that make creation repeatable Stagecraft: show up to present, connect, and move the ball forward—then step off The big idea? Social platforms are powerful—when they serve your purpose. Use them as a stage: step on with intention, deliver your best, connect with your people, and step off before the sofa starts calling your name. For the full playbook—including how to set boundaries that stick—check out this week's episode of the show. Until next time—stay intentional, stay bold, and keep creating.

Do you want to use AI without losing trust? What frameworks help build trust and manage AI responsibly? Can we really create trust while using AI?In this episode of the FIT4PRIVACY Podcast, host Punit Bhatia and digital trust expert Mark Thomas explain how to govern and manage AI in ways that build real trust with customers, partners, and society.This episode breaks down what it means to use AI responsibly and how strong governance can help avoid risks. You'll also learn about key frameworks like the ISO 42001, the EU AI Act, and the World Economic Forum's Digital Trust Framework—and how they can guide your AI practices.Mark and Punit also talk about how organizational culture, company size, and leadership affect how AI is used—and how trust is built (or lost). They discuss real-world tips for making AI part of your existing business systems, and how to make decisions that are fair, explainable, and trustworthy.
In this episode of Building Better Developers with AI, Rob Broadhead and Michael Meloche revisit their earlier discussion on “Estimation Essentials” and explore how AI helps sharpen project pricing. The theme is clear: estimation is less about numbers and more about setting expectations. Developers who learn to price with confidence gain credibility, avoid stress, and build long-term client relationships. Why You Must Price With Confidence Estimation impacts far more than budgets. A clear, honest number builds trust and predictability. Vague requirements like “integrate with multiple systems” can't be priced accurately—so instead of guessing, developers must clarify scope. Saying “not enough detail to price this yet” protects both sides from disappointment. Honest estimates strengthen trust. Don't guess—clarify. Common Pitfalls When You Don't Price With Confidence The hosts highlight mistakes that derail projects: Underestimating to win a contract, then burning out. Ignoring hidden costs such as meetings, testing, and documentation. Forgetting risk buffers, leaving no room for the unexpected. Leaning on gut instinct rather than repeatable methods. By failing to price with confidence, developers risk missed deadlines, blown budgets, and damaged reputations. Frameworks to Help You Price With Confidence Rob and Michael recommend proven approaches: Bottom-up estimation – Break work into small tasks. Top-down estimation – Use data from past projects. Three-point estimation – Balance optimistic, pessimistic, and likely outcomes. Risk-first sequencing – Attack uncertain features first. These frameworks bring structure, reduce surprises, and give clients realistic options. Choosing Models That Let You Price With Confidence Pricing isn't just about numbers—it's about risk allocation. Time & Materials (T&M) – Risk stays with the client, who pays for actual work. Fixed Price – Risk shifts to the developer; scope must be crystal clear. Beware hybrid models like “T&M with caps,” which push risk onto developers without fair compensation. The key is aligning incentives so both sides win. MVP Thinking: Another Way to Price With Confidence Defining a minimum viable product (MVP) early protects the project when scope changes or budgets tighten. By locking in must-have features at the start, you can deliver value even if time or resources run short. This approach ensures clients get results and developers maintain credibility. Practical Steps to Price With Confidence Callout: Break tasks down, add a 20–30% buffer, and communicate assumptions. Follow these steps on your next project: Clarify requirements first – No assumptions left unspoken. Break into small tasks – Accurate estimates come from detail. Add buffers – Protect against risk and scope creep. Track actuals vs. estimates – Learn and refine over time. Explain assumptions – Clients trust numbers when they know the “why.” Challenge: Practice Pricing With Confidence Review your last three estimates. Where did you miss hidden costs like testing or meetings? On your next project, add a 25% buffer to that category and track whether accuracy improves. Small tweaks create more reliable pricing habits. Closing Thoughts The path to better client relationships isn't perfect numbers—it's predictable delivery. Developers who price with confidence clarify scope, tackle risks early, and communicate openly. The result? Trust, repeat business, and less stress.

If you're an expert in something, chances are, you share content about that something. But so does everyone around you. Merely sharing your expertise makes you a commodity. I can get it anywhere, and I guess you're anywhere. That's why I routinely say, you need to stop creating content and start creating IP. Your IP is built on top of your premise, the core idea informing the rest, but more experts should also develop their signature frameworks, or what our guest today calls "contextual models." Your contextual models help turn complexity into simplicity, so people go, "Wow, I get it, and I see how much more there is to know. Take me through it."Today's wonderful guest (and a master of contextual modeling) is Neen James. She's a leadership strategist who has worked with brands like Viacom, Comcast, and the Four Seasons, a fantastic keynote speaker, and the author of multiple books, including Folding Time, Attention Pays, and her latest: Exceptional Experiences: Five Luxury Levers to Elevate Every Aspect of Your Business.In our episode, Neen shares how she develops her frameworks, then delivers a signature story from her speeches and her new book which we dissect and celebrate piece by piece.This is a rare and generous look at the process of one of my favorite business authors and speakers.***ABOUT ME - IN 3 PHRASESDon't market more.

STARRCAST IS BACK for Season 9! We are thrilled to return to bring you more insights and fresh perspectives to help your spa business thrive! Thinking about opening a sauna or bathhouse, or scaling the one you've got? To kick things off, we're replaying an incredibly informative webinar that unpacks the operating math behind the hydrothermal business: capacity planning, MEP-first (“engine room”) design, admissions-led pricing, and the real bottleneck no one budgets for: laundry throughput. Expect candid lessons from operators and designers shaping the U.S. market, including Bathhouse (NYC) and leaders from the Global Wellness Institute initiatives. You'll learn how to right-size back-of-house, choose between open-ended admission vs. timed sessions, and design people-flow, so staff can manage more guests with less friction, all while protecting margins and guest experience. What You'll Learn: Why bathhouses are surging now: the shift to social wellness, accessible pricing, and admissions-first business models. MEP > “wow rooms”: how an engine-room-first approach (ventilation, filtration/sanitation, drainage, electrical) prevents constant firefighting. Capacity & pricing mechanics: choosing dynamic pricing, timed sessions, or walk-ins based on footprint, software, and throughput. Back-of-house math: planning for ~⅓ non-guest area, with laundry and storage sized to daily towel turns and peak flow. Revenue mix that actually works: admissions as the margin engine, treatments as add-ons, and F&B designed to extend dwell time—not clog operations. Episode Highlights (Chapters): 00:52 – Why “social wellness” is driving the U.S. sauna/bathhouse wave—and how this model differs from appointment-led spas. 06:18 – The hydrothermal specialist team you need on day one (designer + MEP) and why wet areas blow up naïve $/ft² assumptions. 12:40 – “Start with your engine room”: air changes, filtration, drainage, and electrical that determine guest comfort and uptime. 18:55 – Lessons from Bathhouse NYC: designing around laundry first (thousands of towels/day) and keeping sightlines open to reduce staffing. 25:03 – Admission strategy: open-ended stays with dynamic pricing vs. timed sessions in smaller/hotel footprints—software and UX trade-offs. 33:27 – Lease vs. buy: why most startups lease to preserve capex for fit-out; right-sizing scope and contingency. 41:42 – What really makes money: admissions > treatments; F&B for physiology and community, not margin. 49:58 – Guest norms & flow: no-photo policies, wet-to-dry separation, and the contrast-therapy circuit (hot → cold → rest). Meet the Guests Don Genders — CEO, Design for Leisure; Chair, GWI Hydrothermal Initiative (global authority on thermal & wet-area design). Lynn Curry — Principal, Curry Spa Consulting; member, GWI Consulting Initiative (concept-to-opening spa development). Travis Talmadge — Co-founder/operator, Bathhouse (NYC: Williamsburg & Flatiron), a high-volume, admissions-led urban bathhouse. Tools, Frameworks, or Strategies Mentioned: Engine-Room-First Design: lead with MEP (mechanical, electrical, plumbing), ventilation/air changes, filtration, drainage, and storage. Capacity/Throughput Modeling: people-flow tracking, dynamic pricing, and sightlines to manage density with fewer staff. Contrast-Therapy Circuit: hot → cold → rest cycle embedded in layout and wayfinding. CFO Lens for Scope: capex vs. opex trade-offs, contingency, and location-first site selection. Closing Insight “We design around the laundry first.” The margin lives or dies in the back-of-house—build the plant right and the guest magic follows.

Moms Moving On: Navigating Divorce, Single Motherhood & Co-Parenting.
What if the very thing you're clinging to in co-parenting, the need for control, is what's keeping you from peace? In this episode, Michelle Dempsey-Multack unpacks why control in co-parenting is an illusion, how expectations create unnecessary heartache, and what true surrender looks like for divorced parents. Listeners will learn how to shift from frustration to freedom and create a calmer, more resilient environment for their children. What You'll Learn: Why co-parents crave control after divorce and how it impacts anxiety The difference between healthy influence and harmful attempts to control How to respond when your ex behaves in ways you can't change Tools for modeling resilience and stability for your children A practical exercise to release control and focus on what really matters Episode Highlights: 00:00 – Why control feels like the only safety net after divorce 02:05 – The truth: you can't control your ex, your child's emotions, or transitions 05:15 – How expectations create self-fulfilling frustration 08:40 – What letting go really looks like in day-to-day co-parenting 11:25 – Surrender as freedom: shifting energy into peace, healing, and presence 13:30 – Final reflection: modeling resilience for your children Tools, Frameworks, or Strategies Mentioned: The “Expectation Audit” Exercise – writing down one thing you can't control in co-parenting, and one thing you can control. Modeling Resilience Framework – showing kids strength and calm through action rather than reacting to negativity. Closing Insight: “Your power as a parent doesn't come from controlling every variable; it comes from modeling grace, resilience, and love.” Letting go of control isn't giving up, it's reclaiming peace. Take a deep breath, release what isn't yours to manage, and focus on what truly matters: showing up for your children with stability and love.

In a shift from the usual format, Henrik Werdelin steps into the guest seat—alongside Nicholas Thorne—for a live conversation with Jeremy Utley about their new book Me, My Customer, and AI. They explore what it takes for entrepreneurs to compete in the age of AI — from redefining resourcefulness to thinking like founders, even inside a job.The discussion dives into the book's central frameworks, including the Five Ps (powers, passions, possessions, positions, and potentials) and the “it sucks that…” approach to identifying real problems worth solving. Along the way, they reflect on how AI is changing the leap from idea to execution, why more people may need to think entrepreneurially, and the shift from operating to orchestrating.They also share lessons from the writing process itself—how they tried to use AI, where it fell short, and why Me, My Customer, and AI ends when it does.This episode isn't just about launching a book. It's about rediscovering agency, and the questions we all need to ask when starting something new.Key Takeaways: This isn't a book about AI—it's a book about you.Henrik and Nicholas share how the real questions emerging from AI are deeply human ones. The book focuses first on self-understanding, then on the customer, with AI as the third piece—not the center.The Five Ps framework helps you figure out what to build—and why.Powers, passions, possessions, positions, and potentials offer a structured way to explore personal founder-market fit. It's a tool for generating ideas, but also for stress-testing them.Real problems often hide in plain sight—it just sucks that no one's solved them.Using the phrase “it sucks that…” makes it easier to spot problems worth solving. It's simple, emotional, and sharp enough to cut through vague ideas and find what really matters to people.Entrepreneurial thinking isn't just for founders anymore.In a world shaped by AI agents and fluid roles, more people will need to act like entrepreneurs—taking initiative, connecting dots, and orchestrating rather than operating.Book site: Me, My Customer and AI - The New Rules of EntrepreneurshipBuy the book: Amazon.com: Me, My Customer, and AI: The New Rules of EntrepreneurshipAudos: AudosAudos Instagram: Direct • Instagram Nicholas LinkedIn: Nicholas Thorne | LinkedIn00:00 Intro: The Human Questions Behind AI00:37 Personal Reflections on AI01:26 The Book's Unique Perspective02:55 AI and Human Resourcefulness05:46 Entrepreneurship in the AI Era13:05 The Five Ps Framework23:53 Identifying Real Problems25:39 Why Identifying and Reframing Problems Matters26:27 The Concept of “It Sucks That”27:23 Historical Context and Practical Applications28:22 The Role of Language in Problem-Solving29:43 AI's Influence on Writing and Creativity31:47 Challenges and Limitations of AI in Writing35:38 The Future of AI in Creative Processes43:30 Entrepreneurial Skills for the Modern Era48:26 Audience Interaction and Final Thoughts

When we talk about resilience, too often the conversation stops at “mental grit” or “pushing through.” But the truth is this: resilience isn't about grinding harder. It's about recovery. But in the 21st century, marked by global pandemics, mass caregiving crises, economic instability and high inflation, and unprecedented trauma, this outdated definition no longer serves us. Holistic Resilience reframes resilience as not just surviving adversity but rebuilding from the inside out—biologically, emotionally, financially, socially, and spiritually. It integrates nervous system recovery with identity reinvention, creating a blueprint for sustainable thriving after disruption. It's about rewiring the nervous system after disruption. And for those who have been through trauma, who spend months or years in a state of hypervigilance, this recovery is both urgent and lifesaving. In this episode of the Holistic Wealth podcast, our topic is "What is Holistic Resilience? The New Resilience Frameworks for the 21st Century". Resources Used in This Episode:Holistic Wealth (Expanded and Updated): 36 Life Lessons to Help You Recover from Disruption, Find Your Life Purpose, and Achieve Financial FreedomWhy We Need a New Framework for ResilienceThe numbers speak for themselves:70% of adults worldwide will experience at least one traumatic event in their lifetime. That's 5.6 billion people alive today (WHO, 2023).Roughly 1 in 13 people globally will develop PTSD at some point.Long-term caregiving reduces life expectancy by an average of 9 years due to stress-induced telomere shortening (UCSF study).Trauma survivors are 2-3x more likely to develop chronic illness, depression, or financial instability.A landmark ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) study found that people with 4 or more ACEs are 12x more likely to attempt suicide and 3x more likely to develop heart disease.
