I suspect that the CEOs in our audience are likely to agree that crafting a truly effective incentive compensation plan is simultaneously one of the most difficult, and one of the most important, tasks that a small business CEO will face.Charlie Munger is famous for saying “Never, ever think about something else when you should be thinking about the power of incentives.” He's also said “I think I've been in the top 5% of my age cohort, all my life, in understanding the power of incentives, and all my life I've underestimated them.”But why is it so difficult to craft a truly effective incentive plan? Based on many years of experience putting them together myself, here are just a few of the challenges that I faced:Avoiding unintended consequences and people "gaming" the systemHow to balance individual goals vs. company goals vs. departmental goalsHow to incent people on company goals when the achievement of those goals falls largely outside of their controlIf or how to change a comp plan if circumstances change materially within any given yearHow to manage changes in goals & targets across any two given yearsThe balance between simplicity & detailHow to handle inherited employees whose salaries may fall outside of company-wide pay bandsTo help me untangle each of these challenges, this week I'm joined by Stacey Carroll. Stacey has spent substantially her entire career leading HR organizations across a wide array of companies, with a specific focus on compensation & benefits. She has also spent the past 14 years leading HR Experts on Call, a company she founded where she acts as an interim HR leader for small and medium-sized businesses.
Your beliefs about money shape how you view it, spend it, and save it.If you believe there's a limit on how much you earn, you may subconsciously self-sabotage a profitable opportunity. If you believe you'll never have enough, you may save TOO much and never enjoy the money you work hard for.As women building wealth, it's SO important to understand:What your money beliefs areWhether they're productive or unproductive to your goalsHow to create positive money beliefs that propel you forward—If you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review the podcast.

Send us a textInterested in the Free Masterclass - Click Here Most people think habits are about discipline, motivation, or willpower.But the real science of making - and breaking - habits has very little to do with pushing harder.It has everything to do with your nervous system.If you're trying to rebuild your life in 2026 and the old strategies no longer work - this episode offers a different approach.In this conversation, we explore the biology of habits, why motivation disappears when your nervous system is in conflict, and how identity is rebuilt through safety, not force.This episode covers:The nervous system science behind habit formation and resistanceWhy “good habits” break down during burnout or life transitionsHow identity changes before behavior ever becomes consistentWhy small actions rewire self-trust more effectively than big goalsHow to rebuild your life in a way your body can actually sustainThis is not about habit hacks or morning routines.It's about learning how to work with your biology, so change becomes stable, meaningful, and aligned.If you want to go deeper, I've created a free masterclass where I teach how to let your biology work for you - not against you - when rebuilding your life.Sending you love, until next time.
What if chasing massive goals didn't require sacrificing your family, your career, or your sanity?In this episode of the Everyday Ultra Podcast, I sit down with Iris Sexton — a full-time working mom, wife, and ultrarunner — who proves that you can train for ultra-marathons without blowing up the rest of your life.Over the past year, Iris has completed her first 50K, first 50-miler, first 100-mile attempt, and a 12-hour race — all while working full-time, raising two kids, strength training, and staying deeply present in her life. No shortcuts. No obsession. No burnout.We talk about what it really takes to pursue extreme goals sustainably — and why most people are held back not by time, but by false trade-offs they believe they have to make.This conversation is for anyone who's ever thought:“I want more… but I don't want to lose everything else.”In this episode, we dive into:How Iris went from casual fitness to ultrarunning without overhauling her entire lifeWhy consistency beats massive training weeks (especially for busy athletes)The mindset shift that allows you to do hard things without resentmentHow to balance ambition, motherhood, and a demanding careerWhat it's like when a 100-mile race is canceled mid-race — and how to mentally process itWhy it's okay to want a career and big endurance goalsHow saying goals out loud changes what you believe is possibleIf you're chasing big goals but refuse to let them cost you your relationships, your health, or your identity — this episode will hit home.
New year, same cycle? You set the goals, feel fired up for a week or two, and then…you slowly fall off the wagon. Sound familiar??If that resonates, you are NOT alone! This episode is your permission slip to stop chasing brand-new, shiny New Year's resolutions every.freaking.year, and start building something that actually lasts: self-trust.You don't *need* new goals - you need more belief in yourself and follow-through with what you're already doing!Self-trust isn't about confidence or motivation - it's about evidence. When you repeatedly set goals that are too big, too vague, or not aligned with your real life, your brain stops believing you. Clear, specific goals remove pressure, reduce decision fatigue, and turn intention into ACTION.Ultimately, real self-trust isn't built in hype moments at the start of January - it's built in the boring, everyday moments when you follow through anyway. That's how you stop starting over (for good)!!Episode recap:Why you don't *need* brand new goals this yearWhy you don't trust yourself (yet) + how you can get thereHow vague goals keep you stuckA coffee shop analogy that relates to you setting specific goalsHow clarity builds self-trustKey differences in goals vs. standardsHow to set standards that build real self-trustLinks/Resources:Grab your FREE Body Recomp Meal Prep and get the UFYF NewsletterListen to the Girls with Opinions PodcastJoin FIT CLUB, my monthly membership with workouts you can do at home or the gymPRIVATE COACHING is my 1:1 program (choose 3 or 6 month option)Connect with me on Instagram @kristycastillofit and @unfuckyourfitnesspodcast so we can keep this conversation going-be sure to tag me in your posts and stories!Join my FREE Facebook group, Unf*ck Your FitnessClick HERE for my favorite fitness & life things!Send me a text with episode ideas or just to say hi!

There's one trait I see in every genuinely successful entrepreneur I work with and it's not what you think. It's not strategy, work ethic, or even talent. It's deep, subconscious self belief that operates independently of circumstances. In this episode, I'm breaking down what self belief actually is (versus what most people think it is), the subconscious mechanism behind it, why most capable people don't have it, and exactly how to build it if you don't have it yet. Plus, I'm taking you through a powerful subconscious exercise to uncover what's actually blocking you from trusting yourself fully. This is the foundational work that changes everything in your business.Topics covered on Why self belief is the defining trait of successful entrepreneurs:What self belief actually is versus confidence (and why the difference matters)The subconscious mechanism behind self belief and how threat responses show up in businessReal examples of how self belief (or lack of it) shows up in business behaviourWhy incredibly capable people still don't trust themselvesThe role of identity in self-belief and why you'll sabotage anything that contradicts your current identitySubconscious exercise: Uncovering your actual beliefs about your goalsHow to build genuine self belief through evidence accumulation and subconscious reprogrammingWhat becomes possible when you develop deep self trustRelated episodes you may enjoy:Episode 250 -What Identity Work Actually Is (And Why Most People Get It Wrong)Episode 241 - The Real Reason You're Still Not Acting Like Your Next Level (& Why Awareness Alone Isn't Enough)Episode 239 – Why You Keep Snapping Back to Your Old IdentityEpisode 230 - Shedding Your Old Identity: What No One Tells You About Becoming Your Higher SelfConnect with Rebecca Haydon:Apply to work with meThe Subconscious MembershipCome say hi on Instagram | Facebook | YouTubeFind the full show notes & more resources at www.rebeccahaydon.com/podcast/

In this Think Thursday episode, Molly picks up where last week's conversation on the Fresh Start Effect left off and explores what happens in the brain after motivation fades. Using neuroscience and behavior change research, she explains why January 8 is often the point where people assume they have failed, even though this is actually the phase where real change begins.Molly breaks down why most New Year's intentions are abandoned by mid-January and reframes this not as a lack of discipline, but as a misunderstanding of how the brain works. She explains the difference between motivation and follow-through, the role of dopamine, and why the brain naturally resists energy-intensive new behaviors. The episode focuses on how to create conditions that support consistency without relying on willpower.What You'll LearnWhy most New Year's resolutions are abandoned by mid-JanuaryHow the Fresh Start Effect creates motivation but not sustainabilityThe difference between motivation and follow-through in the brainThe role of dopamine in anticipation versus long-term changeWhy habits live in different brain circuits than goalsHow the brain prioritizes energy conservationWhy resistance and friction are expected during behavior changeHow follow-through builds self-trust over timeKey Concepts ExplainedFresh Start Effect as a motivational sparkDopamine and why motivation naturally fadesPrefrontal cortex as the center of planning and intentionBasal ganglia and its role in habit automationEnergy conservation as a primary function of the lower brainFollow-through as infrastructure, not enthusiasmPractical Principles Shared in the EpisodeReduce decisions to conserve cognitive energyAnchor new behaviors to existing routines through habit stackingShrink behaviors to reduce resistance and threatExpect friction as part of learning, not failureBuild evidence through repetition rather than relying on excitementKey TakeawaysMotivation fading does not mean you are behindFollow-through begins when excitement endsConsistency during low motivation is what rewires the brainSmall steps repeated over time create sustainable changeSelf-trust is built through evidence, not intentionRelated Think Thursday EpisodesThe Myth of the Fresh Start BrainConsistency: The Brain's Super PowerThe Iterative Mindset and Behavior ChangeBelief Echoes and Why Change Feels HardUnbreakable Habits and the Voice That Keeps Them Alive ★ Support this podcast ★
Send Katie a Text Message!! As we step into 2026, I wanted to record this episode before you opened your inbox, before you looked at last year's numbers, and before you started telling yourself stories about what this year needs to be. This is your 2026 pep talk. Because most designers don't start a new year with a clean slate — they start it carrying the emotional weight of the year before. And if we don't address that first, it quietly shapes how we show up, the goals we set, and the decisions we make. In this episode, I'm walking you through how to release last year without ignoring it, move out of overwhelm, and step into 2026 with clarity, intention, and confidence.In this episode, I talk about:Why 2026 does not need to be a reaction to 2025 — and how trying to “make up” for last year leads to burnoutThe truth about why most designers struggle (hint: it's not talent, it's systems, boundaries, and emotional energy)How carrying shame or comparison into a new year limits your capacity before you even beginWhy defining how you want your business to feel matters more than jumping straight into revenue goalsHow to set goals without shame, pressure, or punishmentWhat makes a goal actually supportive using a simple SMART frameworkWhy being “behind” is a dangerous story — and how being informed puts you in a position of powerHow intentional reflection leads to better decisions, not self-judgmentIf you're heading into 2026 feeling overwhelmed, behind, or unsure where to start, this episode is your reminder that you are not failing — you're informed. You're allowed to begin again, design this year differently, and build a business that works for you instead of the other way around. And if you want help figuring out your next right step, I invite you to book a free 50-minute problem-solving session with me at fixmydesignbiz.com.

HAPPY 2026! In the spirit of the new year, we're getting into the real science behind self-trust. Not the fluffy “just believe in yourself” kind, but what actually makes someone follow through on big goals, bold visions, and the life they say they want. If you've ever felt stuck in a loop of getting excited, setting intentions, and then ghosting your own goals… This conversation is for you. I'm breaking down how self-trust is built (and rebuilt), why motivation isn't the problem, and how identity, nervous system safety, and consistency all play a role in becoming someone who actually does the thing - especially as we head into 2026.Here's what we get into in this episode:What self-trust actually is from a neuroscience + identity perspectiveWhy breaking promises to yourself erodes confidence faster than failure ever willThe connection between nervous system regulation and following through on goalsHow to stop overplanning and start building evidence that you're someone who shows upWhy small, aligned actions matter more than big, dramatic resetsThe identity shift required to hold bigger goals without self-sabotageHow to rebuild trust with yourself after a year of burnout, inconsistency, or overwhelmThis episode is equal parts grounding and activating. It's meant to help you walk into 2026 feeling steady, self-led, and deeply anchored in your ability to create what you want.

In this episode of the Friends in Beauty Podcast, I am taking you with me into a heartfelt year in review as we close out 2025 and prepare to step into 2026. I reflect on the wins, the lessons, and the beautiful moments that shaped my journey this year, both personally and professionally.I walk you through the milestones that meant the most to me, from returning to teaching at Bennett Career Institute, to speaking in powerful beauty communities, to being invited to panels, summits, and brand experiences that once felt far beyond my reach. I share what it felt like to see long planted seeds begin to grow and how consistency, faith, and community played a huge role in everything that unfolded.I also open up about moments of rest, burnout, and recalibration, and why listening to your energy matters just as much as staying consistent. This conversation is a reminder that progress is not always loud, but it is always meaningful.If you are heading into a new year feeling unsure, hopeful, or somewhere in between, this episode will remind you that your efforts matter, your timing is not behind, and your growth is unfolding exactly as it should.
Create Your 2026 VisionHappy New Year! This episode is your invitation to pause before you sprint into New Year goals. In today's episode, I share pieces from my 2-Day Annual Planning Retreat, including a powerful reframe on why your dream life is closer than you think, how subconscious programming shapes what you believe is possible, and why the real key to transformation isn't willpower—it's alignment, emotional mastery, and self-trust.You'll explore how to reflect on your wins (so you don't miss your own life), why visualization and “observation” matter, and how to become the kind of woman who can hold what she says she wants. This is equal parts mindset, neuroscience, and deep personal truth—designed to help you step into 2026 with clarity, confidence, and excitement.In This Episode, You'll Learn:Why reflecting on your wins is a potent step before setting new goalsHow weekly “win tracking” helps you stop living in “not enough” energyThe quantum-inspired idea that your desires already exist as possibilities—and the real gap is programming, not potentialHow visualization trains your brain's Reticular Activating System (RAS) to notice opportunities aligned with your visionWhy “resistance” often isn't laziness—it's a lack of internal safetyThe difference between the happiness of pursuit vs. the pursuit of happinessHow to “insource” the feelings you think you'll get once you reach the goalThe surprising reason you may not have what you want yet: avoidance of unwanted emotionsWhat emotional mastery actually looks like: the ability to hold duality—desire and discomfort, joy and fearMentioned in This EpisodeAnnual Planning Retreat Replay + WorkbookYou can still access the full replay and workbook so you can take yourself through the planning process for 2026.

It's about creating a business that supports the life you actually want to live.In this episode, we explore:Why reviewing your year matters more than setting new goalsHow to reflect on what actually worked in your business (not what “should” have worked)Identifying what drained you, what you've outgrown, and what no longer fitsGrowth beyond money: leadership, boundaries, trust, and energyHow your business felt to live inside...not just how it lookedWhy intention is the missing link between growth and fulfilmentHow to choose a single, powerful intention for 2026Letting your intentions lead your goals (not the other way around)Creating sustainable growth without burnout, pressure, or provingA powerful reminder as you move into 2026:2025 doesn't need fixing...it needs honouring2026 doesn't need forcing...it needs intentionYour business should support your life, not consume itTake this episode slowly.

Send us a textIn this reflective, end-of-year solo episode of The Sober Butterfly Podcast, host Nadine Mulvina invites listeners into the quiet, liminal space between Christmas and New Year's to explore quantum physics, manifestation, and intentional identity shifts for 2026.Recorded the day after Christmas, this episode slows things down and reframes manifestation through a grounded, logical lens: connecting quantum physics, nervous system regulation, sobriety, visualization, and embodiment. Nadine explains why manifestation isn't about asking or wishing, but about becoming the version of yourself who already lives the life you want.Listeners will learn how sobriety sharpens your energetic signal, why most people are “manifesting wrong,” and how to align with the timeline where your dream life already exists. Nadine also shares a 6-step framework for creating a powerful 2026 vision board—one rooted in identity, habits, regulation, and daily embodiment rather than aesthetics or pressure.This episode is perfect for anyone who is sober, sober-curious, or intentionally designing their next chapter with clarity, self-trust, and purpose.

Have you ever had a moment in your life where you realise you're not the same person you've been for years? The roles you've held and the identity you've been living in suddenly feel out of alignment, especially when you're moving through big life transitions and personal growth.Most of us don't talk about identity shifts, especially when they show up during big life transitions in our family, business or career. They can feel uncomfortable, emotional and hard to explain while you're in the middle of all that change and personal growth. They usually arrive in seasons where something ends, something new begins and you're standing in the middle trying to understand who you're becoming next.In this episode, I chat about what it's really like to let go of an old version of yourself and step into a new chapter. Which is exactly what's happened to me recently. If you've been feeling stuck, restless or unsure of who you are becoming outside of your everyday roles, this conversation is for you. “ You are allowed to outgrow the life that you built. You're allowed to want something different, and you're allowed to become someone new..” - Kylie Walker We cover:What identity shifts really feel like when you're going through big life changes like kids finishing school, career transitions and letting go of routines you've lived in for years How I realised my identity as a mum was changing and why it pushed me to reflect on what this next season might mean for me The impact of selling my business and leaving my hometown and how those decisions made me aware of how strongly my identity had been tied to certain rolesWhy so many of us stay stuck in old identities after we've outgrown them and how we can start noticing the signs that it's time to shift into who we're becoming nextHow to recognise when your current identity is no longer aligned with the person you're becomingThe key questions that helped me understand what I truly want now rather than who I thought I needed to be in the pastHow journalling, reflection and checking in with my future self supported my personal growth and helped me reconnect with who I want to be in this next stage of lifeWhy it's important to give yourself permission to disappoint people when you're choosing a life that supports your wellbeing and goalsHow identity change happens through taking simple steps at a time, not through burning everything down at onceKylie's Resources:Property Management Growth School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/TPM-BDMSchool Digital Marketing School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/digitalschool That Property Mum Courses: https://www.thatpropertymum.com.au/courses/ The PM Accelerate Membership: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/accelerate Book a Strategy Call with Kylie: https://calendly.com/kylie-tpm/coaching-call Kolmeo: https://kolmeo.com/ Find out about our Done for You Lead Generation -

Brief: Two paths, one principle: treat homebuying as a long-term financial strategy, not a short-term hurdle.Synopsis: This holiday episode is less about quick fixes and more about reframing your mindset. David Sidoni uses the season of spending and reflection to challenge renters to think long-term. Whether you're considering formal assistance, planning to save aggressively, or exploring the option of family help, this episode presents the big picture. Sidoni explains how budgeting now — even during the holidays — can align you with a strategy to turn your lease into a mortgage. He explores how mindset, planning, and consistency are more powerful than credit score hacks or waiting for perfect market timing. While down payment assistance is addressed, so is the reality that some buyers may rely on gift funds — and the importance of being honest about what's possible and what's privileged.Quote: “Fear can be your ally. Informed consumers always outperform emotional ones.”Highlights:Why mindset matters more than market timing when planning your purchaseHow to use your current lease as a timeline for ownershipHoliday habits that can kickstart your 2025 savings goalsHow to approach family support or assistance with clarity and confidenceReferenced Episodes:388 – The Playbook Vol. 1: The Rent Replacement Strategy389 – The Playbook Vol. 2: Your Last Lease Ever314 – Is Real Estate a Good Investment? - Dave Meyer, Bigger Pockets Interview188 – House Hacking May Be Your Tool to Affordability52 – How To House Hack Buying Your First Home273 – Buying a Home in 11 Days!

Parenting doesn't come with a manual—and as your kids grow, the challenges and conversations shift in surprising ways. Today we sit down with Kim Mills to talk about navigating the evolving stages of motherhood, building confidence through community, and learning to let go of control as your children step into their independence.
