So welcome to the podcast, Aaron.Aaron 00:00:11  Hey Josh, thanks for having me man. So good to be here.Josh 00:00:13  Aaron, you've got a lot of experience. As we can see in operations, you've helped grow solopreneurs into multifaceted eight figure brands and helping scale people beyond that. Aaron, let's back things up and tell me, like, how did you even get started in operations? Why is that your specialty?Aaron 00:00:31  Yeah, I you know, so growing up, my dad was an entrepreneur. My dad was entrepreneurial, you know, and I saw him going out there starting his own business. For him, it was construction for him. He, you know, he had been working for some big guys doing construction in Southern California, you know, for his whole career. And at the age of 40, you know, he said, hey, I'm going to go out and do this on my own.Aaron 00:00:49  He was able to build this empire for himself. You know, of 85 people doing, you know, high rise construction ceilings in LA in Orange County. And I think inspired by his journey, I think is what inspired me. But I noticed me all growing up, you know, from my earliest jobs. I started working in skateboard snowboard shops as a kid, you know, but even there I did a lot of retail just starting out. A lot of kids do, you know. But I noticed about me is that I'm always pulling apart systems. Like, I'm always wondering, how could we tweak that? How could we make that better? Rolling into businesses that don't have training manuals and building train training manuals, you know, looking at their POS system to see how they're dealing with point of sale, like wondering how the customer journey is going to be and just compliment to you, Josh, even just the sequencing of your automations, of sending the invite to this just to be on this podcast, I was like, that guy gets it.Aaron 00:01:35  Like, let's make the customer journey easy. Like, let's take out of the way the encumbrances or the stumbling blocks. And so I think that's been my journey all the way through. right before I started the Colab team, I was doing project management for a large credit union here in our area in southern Oregon. And I was doing a lot with construction, project management, but also project management within the organization and helping with new platforms, coming online and managing teams and I had my first entrepreneur knock on my door and say, hey, he had been a friend of mine for a lot of years. His name is Keith Yaki. He's got a great brand out there. He did real estate for a lot of years, and now he's leaning into something he calls the married game. But Keith Yaki knocked on my door and he said, hey, what would you think about leaving the credit union and coming out and doing this thing with me? I need somebody that just gets operations. You know, they were doing a big bus tours, fix and flip education brand, and he was like, I, I've got all the knowledge, I've got all the education.Aaron 00:02:25  I've laid out the whole program. I know it's going to work, but I'm super nervous about the details. What would you think about taking a step with me in this? And so that became my first client for the Colab team, and I left something super stable and kind of like my dad, you know, this, this corporate gig that, you know, had been around for 50 years. They'll be around for 50 more. They loved me being there. I loved them as people. But I just saw that desire in my heart of, I want more than that. I want to be entrepreneurial. I want to get out there and get out onto my own brand, on my own two feet and take things to the next level. And so that's kind of what started me down the journey.Josh 00:02:54  I love that, I love that, you know, from an early age, you were always kind of like pulling things apart. Trying to figure ...

In this week's Riff, Gino shares what came out of his 2025 sabbatical and why taking a full month away from work can unlock clarity, peace, and healing. He entered the month with three clear intentions: to remember who he is, to see life as it is, and to release what no longer serves him. What followed was a quiet (but powerful) transformation. What began with impatience and spiritual restlessness led to slowing down, canceling commitments, and returning to a more honest, authentic way of showing up in both life and business. Gino also explores the link between repressed emotion and physical symptoms, revealing how subconscious healing helped ease his long-standing back pain. This episode is a heartfelt reminder that space is not empty; it is where the True Self can finally breathe.

In this introspective Riff, Gino opens up about how writing Shine has invited deep, often painful conversations about trauma, and why he welcomes them. As he sits with stories of suffering, he notices how differently his nervous system responds today compared to five years ago. That shift, he believes, is the result of years spent shedding old layers and facing his own pain.This episode explores a bold idea: what if your trauma isn't punishment, but a lesson? Gino introduces the concept of soul contracts and invites you to consider whether your challenges might hold the key to your growth. Healing looks different for everyone, but one thing is clear. You cannot grow by clinging to pain. You have to shed it. So ask yourself honestly, what is your lesson?

In this episode, Rob and Gino sit down for a spontaneous and unscripted dive into recent shifts, personal healing, and the balance between drive and peace. Gino reflects on his sabbatical, a pause that revealed a deeper truth: while the outer search can feel heroic, the answers often lie within. He describes how his foundation has quietly shifted from fear and anxiety to love and light, allowing his True Self to shine without armor. Together, they explore the power of embodiment. Understanding isn't enough without feeling, and healing old wounds can reconnect us to our core sensitivity. We're perfect already, cocooned only by ego. With mentions of Steve Ozanich, Gabor Maté, and the mind-body link, they invite listeners into a quieter wisdom. This one is for anyone seeking both impact and inner peace.

Jamie Munoz, founder of Catalyst Integrators, shares how the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) helped her scale a printing business from $2 million to $15 million in revenue and how it can work for video business owners of any size. She breaks down why so many entrepreneurs get trapped in the operator seat doing work that drains their soul, and provides a clear roadmap for getting out of operations and into the visionary role. Jamie also shares practical advice on hiring virtual assistants and the mindset shifts needed to stop being the bottleneck in your own business.  Key Takeaways Core values are your hiring and firing framework - When employees don't align with your company's core values (like being "hungry"), you have a clear framework for making personnel decisions rather than relying on gut feelings The accountability chart shows your scaling path - Instead of traditional org charts, EOS uses accountability charts that show people in multiple seats, making it clear where to hire next as the business grows Start with 20% time savings - Hire help for just 20% of your weekly tasks (about 8 hours) to free up a full day for revenue-generating activities that can pay for the help and then some Perfect is the enemy of profitable - Learning to let go of "10 out of 10" creative standards and accepting that "7 or 8 out of 10" often exceeds client expectations while maintaining profitability About Jamie Munoz Jamie Munoz is a rescue dog mom, who lives in Cave Creek, Arizona.

Episode Summary Building and scaling a law firm isn't just about attracting clients and delivering legal work. It is also about having the right people in the right roles. In this episode, I talk about the EOS® principle of Right People, Right Seats and why it is such a powerful tool for law firm owners. I'll walk you through how to evaluate your team using three simple questions, the importance of clear reporting lines, and what happens when the firm owner is not in the right seat. If you have ever felt like your team structure is holding you back, this episode will help you see where the gaps are and how to fix them. What You'll Hear in This Episode What “Right People, Right Seats” means in a law firm The three questions to ask about every role: Get it, Want it, Capacity How accountability charts prevent bottlenecks Why values matter more than skills when choosing the right person When the owner is not the best person for a particular role How we use this exercise inside the Accelerator program My Key Takeaways for You You don't need to do everything at once. Growth is about doing the right things for the stage you're in. A $300k firm doesn't need executive dashboards, and a $3M firm shouldn't be operating off spreadsheets. When you know where you are on the roadmap, you can make decisions with confidence, reduce overwhelm, and build a firm that gives you freedom as well as profit. Resources and Links Scalable Law Accelerator Program – Work with me to map your accountability chart and create a team that supports growth Traction by Gino Wickman – the book that introduced the EOS® framework Ready to Restructure Your Firm? Inside Accelerator, I help law firm owners map out their teams so they can clearly see where the right people are in the right seats and where changes need to happen. This exercise alone can give you clarity and direction that takes away so much stress.

What if HR wasn't the department you dreaded — but the partner that helped your team thrive?  In this episode of Scaling UP! H2O, host Trace Blackmore welcomes Tia Amundson, HR Director at HOH Water Technology, to explore how human resources can be a strategic driver of talent, culture, and profitability in the water treatment industry.  Redefining HR's Role  Tia shares her journey into water treatment and how she built HOH's HR department from the ground up. Instead of treating HR as a compliance function, she reframed it as a leadership partner—focused on employee connections, transparent communication, and culture building. From structured check-ins at 30, 60, and 90 days to coaching managers and bridging communication gaps, her approach ensures employees feel supported, heard, and connected.  Culture as Competitive Advantage  HOH's success story demonstrates how culture directly shapes business outcomes. Tia explains how open-book management, employee engagement surveys, and intentional recognition programs have increased retention, profitability, and trust across the organization. By aligning HR strategies with EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System), HOH has cultivated an environment where employees thrive and deliver exceptional service.  Talent, Retention, and the Future of HR  Finding and retaining the right people remains one of the industry's biggest challenges. Tia outlines the importance of a clear employee value proposition, authentic recruiting practices, and a commitment to work-life balance. She also discusses how HR will evolve over the next decade, balancing automation with the irreplaceable human element of caring for people.  Dream Management and Employee Growth  As a Certified Dream Manager, Tia integrates personal growth with professional development. By helping employees pursue their own dreams, HOH has fostered deeper engagement, loyalty, and breakthroughs that extend far beyond the workplace.  Conclusion  For leaders in the water treatment industry, this episode challenges you to view HR not as a cost center, but as a powerful lever for long-term success. Strategic HR practices can reduce turnover, build culture, and give your organization a competitive edge.  Stay engaged, keep learning, and continue scaling up your knowledge!    Timestamps  02:28 - Trace Blackmore welcomes listeners, shares personal “sharpen the saw” growth theme  04:53 - Sharpen-the-saw story  08:10 - Water You Know with James McDonald  10:05 - Upcoming Events for Water Treatment Professionals   13:15 - Interview with a friend and Rising Tide Mastermind member Tia Amundson, HR Director, HOH Water Technology   13:30 - HR as employee connection + leadership alignment, not a “principal's office”  16:32 - From hiring to long-term care  19:14 - Coaching managers  23:49 - Turnover → P&L  33:12 – Recruitment Realities   44:03 – Dream Manager Program  48:11 – Overcoming Skepticism   50:02 – The Future of HR  51:13 – Start/Stop for HR  52:50 – Foundational operating system (EOS) first    Quotes  “HR isn't about punishment—it's about building trust, culture, and strategic advantage.”  “Pour into your employees, and they will pour into their work.

As driven individuals, many of us end up saying “yes” to everything: talks, podcasts, meetings, projects, etc. We chase impact while losing sight of what really matters. In this episode, Gino and Rob unpack the cost of overcommitment and explore how to reclaim clarity, boundaries, and presence. Gino reflects on his own journey toward finding a “happy medium,” while Rob highlights the power of pausing for regular self-assessment. Together, they invite listeners to question the motivations behind their choices: Is this rooted in fear or love? Is it aligned with who I truly am? The conversation reveals how often we try to fill an invisible hole, only to realize there's nothing missing. Wholeness was there all along. By honoring our capacity and saying “no” to what doesn't serve us, we make space to mentor, to connect, and to truly shine.

In this Riff, Gino explores a truth we all face: we are either expanding or contracting. Expansion brings learning, progress, and momentum. Contraction, on the other hand, brings discomfort, doubt, and resistance. Each phase plays a role in our growth. Progress rarely moves in a straight line; it comes in cycles.Gino shares his own cycles of Shedding and Shining, reminding us that contraction does not mean we're broken... it means we're about to break through. Whether it's a business hitting a ceiling or an individual wrestling with change, the pattern is the same: expansion, contraction, evolution, revolution. Your job is to stay aware, trust the process, and look for the lesson. Because if you're committed to growth, another expansion is always around the corner.

What does it take to manage 420 apartments and create a million memorable moments? On this episode, host Dan Ryan sits down with Sebastián Torres-Calderón, the CEO of Stay U-nique, an award-winning short-term rental company in Spain. Sebastián shares his journey from customer journey intern to CEO and reveals how implementing the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) helped his company not only survive the chaos of COVID but quadruple in size. The conversation dives deep into how Stay U-nique uses data and technology to create a frictionless guest experience, the challenges of a rapidly evolving industry, and the political headwinds facing the short-term rental market. Sebastián offers a unique perspective on the debate between prohibition and regulation and provides a powerful case for why collaboration between the private and public sectors is the key to solving housing inventory issues.Takeaways: Track key metrics (KPIs) across all departments, not just leadership, to identify and address recurring issues. Use data to drive improvements in guest experience, operations, and communication.Use frameworks such as the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) to set clear goals, break them into manageable projects (“rocks”), and review progress regularly. Involve the entire team in the process for maximum impact.Don't be afraid to make mistakes, learn, and adapt. Regularly test new approaches, measure their impact, and iterate quickly. Use technology to streamline operations (e.g., remote locks, cleaning apps) and enhance the guest experience, but ensure it remains personal and responsive.Success takes time and consistent effort. Focus on long-term growth rather than immediate results.Empower every team member with ownership of projects and clear goals to drive company-wide improvement.Quote of the Show:“To take that time and make it something that they will remember forever, and get to do that every day, that's amazing.” - Sebastián Torres-CalderónLinks:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sebasti%C3%A1n-torres-calderon-serkovic-310044121/ Website: https://www.stay-u-nique.com/en/ Shout Outs:0:53 - World Travel Awards https://www.worldtravelawards.com/ 10:46 - EOS https://www.eosworldwide.com/ 12:02 - Airbnb https://www.airbnb.com/ 13:43 - Traction https://amzn.to/4fEGOTZ 13:43 - Gino Wickman https://www.ginowickman.com/ 14:53 - Mitcham Rentals https://www.mitchamgrouprentals.com/ 16:23 - Enrique Alcántara https://www.linkedin.com/in/enrique-alc%C3%A1ntara-b9623b/ 24:28 - What the Heck is EOS? https://amzn.to/4fGGXGC 40:49 - Sonder https://www.sonder.com/ 40:56 - Marriott https://www.marriott.com/default.mi

Rob and Gino explore how the people we attract, in both life and business, reflect the clarity (or confusion) within ourselves. When your values are vague, you draw in the wrong energy; but when you get clear on your True Self and core values, you become a magnet for those who truly align, and a filter for those who don't. This clarity helps build relationships that nourish your vision rather than drain it.They invite us to trust our bodies when meeting new people: does your energy feel calm or uneasy? That's your intuition speaking. They also remind us that humility attracts humility, while ego only brings more ego. If you want relationships that last, think in decades, not days. Long-term alignment starts with who you are now, and who you're becoming.

Episode Overview In this candid, behind-the-scenes conversation, John Kitchens sits down with top-producing agent and entrepreneur Bryan Colquitt to explore what it really takes to design a real estate business—and a life—that align with your deepest priorities. From dismantling a thriving team of nine agents to rebuild as a highly profitable solo agent, Bryan shares why chasing status nearly cost him his freedom, and how clarity, boundaries, and saying “no” reshaped everything. If you've ever felt the pressure to grow bigger, do more, and be everywhere—this episode is your permission slip to step back, get intentional, and build a business that serves your life, not the other way around. What You'll Learn in This Episode Key #1: Redefining Success Why “freedom” beats “status” every time How becoming a parent forced Bryan to re-evaluate everything The non-negotiables that guide every business decision now Key #2: Letting Go of the Ego How to step away from a big team without burning bridges Why comparison is the thief of joy—and how to stop chasing someone else's dream Removing the fear of “what will people think?” when making big changes Key #3: Lean, Profitable Operations Running a high-margin business as a solo agent How Bryan's mornings and evenings are structured for presence at home The “main thing” that keeps business moving every day (hint: conversations) Key #4: Navigating a “Have-To” Market Why most real estate decisions right now are emotional, not logical How to uncover the real “why” behind a client's move Serving as an advisor—not just a salesperson—even when it means telling clients to wait Key #5: Trust Over Transactions Building long-term relationships through transparency and empathy Setting boundaries with clients while elevating the service experience How emotional intelligence creates referrals and repeat business in any market Tools & Resources Mentioned Traction by Gino Wickman – for operational clarity Coldwell Banker Advantage – Bryan's brokerage partner Sphere & Database Marketing – Bryan's primary lead source strategy Final Takeaway Success isn't about the size of your team, the number of transactions, or the title on your business card. It's about designing a business that fuels your perfect day, protects your time, and gives you the freedom to be fully present where it matters most. Bryan Colquitt's journey proves that stepping back can be the boldest move forward. “You have to say no to the wrong things so you can say yes to the right life.” – Bryan Colquitt Connect with Us: Instagram: @johnkitchenscoach LinkedIn: @johnkitchenscoach Facebook: @johnkitchenscoach   If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to subscribe and leave a review.

What happens when we choose to lead with love… and only love? In this heartfelt Riff, Gino explores the full power of love in both business and life. He shares how “putting the love in it” transformed his companies, his relationships, and his own leadership. Tough love counts too: honesty, boundaries, even firing someone can be loving when done from the heart. And the ultimate love? Loving yourself. When we do that, we stop chasing, stop fearing, and start vibrating higher. So put the love in it, even when it's hard to do.

Episode Summary:Welcome back! In today's Friday rant, I'm diving into a topic that hit me hard: Can you be both driven and peaceful? I came across this concept in the book Shine by Gino Wickman, and it made me stop and reflect. For most of my life, I believed that success came from chaos—gritting my teeth, pushing harder, never slowing down. But what if that's not the only way? In this episode, I talk about shifting that mindset, doing the inner work, and realizing that rest, peace, and stillness can actually fuel even greater growth.Key Highlights:- Driven & Peaceful: I unpack the fear that many of us entrepreneurs carry—that if we slow down, we'll lose our edge.- Thriving in Chaos: I share my own journey of living in constant hustle mode, and how I've been addicted to that pace since I was 17.- A Different Way: I truly believe now that there's another path—one that doesn't require burnout to succeed.- Inner Work Pays Off: From taking retreats to working with coaches, I've seen how investing in myself creates more clarity and energy in my business.- Change Your Fuel: If you're feeling tired and burnt out, maybe it's time to stop running on the old fuel that got you here—and find a new one that serves you better.Final Tips:You can be peaceful and still be driven. The chaos isn't the only path to growth. If you're feeling like the way you've always done things isn't working anymore, I want you to know: there is another way.If this spoke to you, share it with someone who needs to hear it. Let's keep doing the inner work—together.
