Five guests join me to discuss "Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous" from The Young and the Hopeless, Good Charlotte's second album (2002). Yes, it's really 4 hours and 47 minutes long. In order of appearance: Gina Catalano of Black Is The New AP Style returns to introduce the song and discuss stats and some movies and TV shows it's been featured in. John Ryan of Keep Flying discusses the song's background and dissects the lyrics (is fame/fortune bad?), pondering where the title may have come from. Steven Klett explores the song's critical reception and how it fits into the religious metanarrative arc of the band's career, as described in his essay, linked below. Candace Nelson dives in to the fan reception upon the song's release. I (Molly Hudelson) dig into the music video as well as some covers that I found. Jeff Todd of I Call Fives rounds out the episode with an analysis of the song's legacy 20+ years later.

This episode’s guests are two power-house C-suite women who met in Tucson and decided they wanted to bring community-focused coworking to downtown Tucson's oldest and most coveted neighborhood. Gina and Katina were students in our Coworking Startup School. They’re also members of our Flight Group program and their Community Manager, Alex, is in our Community Manager University program. Gina Catalano is a fractional COO for growth minded entrepreneurs and companies - the CEO's "Swiss Army Knife." Katina Koller is an EOS Implementer and Vistage Group Chair. Here’s why I think you’ll enjoy their story: They took on the passion project of re-developing a downtown historical landmark that most called “a teardown.” - They started their business with an MVP - a 1500 square foot space that allowed them to learn how to attract their ideal members, and how to operationalize their business before building out their flagship location across the street. - They learned along the way that their Ideal Community Avatar isn’t someone that does a type of work or lives in a certain neighborhood, but that the common thread across their members is more about a value system. - They hired a rockstar community manager that takes ownership of the space so that they can still run their other businesses - They have worked together to stay positive and focused even while opening a coworking and events space in the heart of a global pandemic. - They have also remained intentional and goal-focused during this crisis and sold out all of their offices in less than 60 days.
Gina Catalano really enjoys the “Start Up Life”. As she rents her service as a fractional CEO, she is the Swiss Army Knife for small businesses – always there when you need her! Gina helps businesses accelerate their visions so the entrepreneur can focus on their best skills and get rid of stuff they no longer want to do. What you will learn in today's episode: Why “Doing It All” is harming your business The importance of getting clear on the WHAT vs. the HOW Knowing when you need a COO Where can you find Gina?

Strategy is the highway for vision. The problem is, too many business owners spend a lot of time developing a complex roadmap that a) never gets finished, b) never gets communicated, or c) is too difficult for frontline workers to understand.

Gina Catalano works with CEOs and leadership teams to improve operations and increase business value. With 20-plus years of experience leading and consulting with businesses, she is an authority on the integration of business development and operations.

Gina also covers the Lean Startup concept of customer discovery, explaining how to leverage the people in a company who touch the customers in this process. Listen in for Gina's insight on framing strategy as an exercise in choosing what NOT to do and learn why implementation is more important than trying to craft a perfect strategy.

Gina Catalano Jaime Jay welcomes Gina Catalano to today's podcast. Gina is the founder of Venture Solutions, a consulting and coaching company focused on the success of small companies and their leaders. Gina's over 20 years of experience gave her the insights to write the Amazon Kindle bestselling book, Tandem Leadership: How Your #2 Can Make You #1. Listen in to learn how building an awesome relationship with your #2 or “second in command” can help your company become more successful! All About Relationships Gina started out working in dormitories in the higher education. She ran residence halls, from which the “six degrees of separation” worked for her. She eventually started developing seminars and workshops for small manufacturers until later on, she ended up running some manufacturing companies as a vice president. Tweet this episode for Gina For the last 20 years, she worked and consulted for the entrepreneurial manufacturing companies. She worked closely with the owners and found that CEOs and COOs either have an awesome relationship or struggled in having one. Thanks to her worthwhile experiences, anyone—especially those who want to become entrepreneurs—can now benefit from the insights of her bestselling book, Tandem Leadership: How Your #2 Can Make You #1. “Where people make a mistake is that they just hire somebody they like and that they think is a lot like them, and they expect them to just pick up and start doing things.” - Gina Catalano Seeing the Pattern You may be an entrepreneur who started with a great idea and opportunity, but a year later you find yourself asking, “How did all this happen?” Even with the best amount of planning, you can still end up dumbfounded with what has become. And, if you find yourself struggling with your team, it can be because of a number of things. “Sometimes when you start hiring additional people, you got to let them be the hero.” -Gina Catalano In the podcast, Gina identifies the two groups of people who usually consult her regarding the issue. One of the easiest things to do is to figure out what you really need and want to do on your business. And, in the process of figuring out what to do, you begin seeing some patterns—ideas of what your team should be doing for you and with you. Identifying the Red Flags Entrepreneurs may tend to hire people with whom they seem to share a lot of similarities and assume that they can automatically start doing the task that they’ve hired them to do. When you’re about to train people for the job, you have to be specific with their tasks and with what you want them to achieve. Red flags or warnings of certain danger can be just around the corner, and identifying these red flags will definitely help you advance towards success. Gina gives a clear contrast between an opposite and a complement. Some entrepreneurs can be pretty stubborn in really sharing their respective businesses with their team. However, leading your team in achieving their best as individual members may actually optimize your overall success. Make sure you listen to the entire podcast with Gina Catalano to gain powerful insights on tandem leadership. Connect with Gina and learn how to achieve success in all areas of your business life.

Join Angela Lauria of The Author Incubator as she interviews Gina Catalano on the writing and publishing of her book, Tandem Leadership. Gina was able to easily pick a topic to write about being a consultant and an executive at the same time. She had years of experience working with business owners and entrepreneurs and knew of the difficulties they encounter when it comes to hiring their second-in-command or Number 2. She intended her book to be a straightforward business-type book written from her point of view but then she realized during the writing that she was really talking to her Ideal Reader who might find stories or business allegories more engaging and effective. Through these, she's able to articulate the value of a CEO or business owner's successful relationship with his or her #2. Read more and download the transcript:Gina Catalano on The Author Incubator
