To Subscribe to DTC Newsletter - https://dtcnews.link/signupA brand doing under $50 million a year is putting roughly half of its combined retail media, trade, and shopper marketing budget into retail media. At larger companies that share drops toward 30, 20, then 15 percent. Mike Chiasson works on Keen's models, which cover $45 billion in marketing investment, and his read on where that money comes from is the part worth sitting with. It is mostly net new, sourced out of trade rather than pulled from Meta and Google, which is why so much of it sits with sales teams and never gets measured the way media does.If you run growth at a brand moving into retail: this is the episode about what the retail media line in your budget is actually buying, and which part of it is buying customers you already had.If you own the media budget: Chiasson makes the case that the untapped return in retail media is upper funnel, inside retailers where almost everyone is still only buying search.What he gets into:Where the money comes from, and why trade budgets rather than media budgets explain retail media's growthThe benchmark: about half the retail media, trade, and shopper marketing bucket at brands under $50M, versus 15 to 30 percent at large onesWhy small brands with a narrow distribution footprint default to bottom-funnel search, and what that costs themThe Amazon question: whether retail media spend compounds on a retailer's algorithm the way it does on a listing, and why brick and mortar has no real equivalentRetail media ads that carry no visible association with the retailer at all, and why targeting is the actual productWalmart, Vizio, and streaming video as the moment upper-funnel retail media became buyableRetail media social, which he calls very small and rapidly growing, with returns he thinks reflect how early the curve isThe two flaws in ROAS, and why the return on your next dollar is the only version of the number that helps you planBayesian priors, and how Keen gives a brand a response curve for a retailer it has never advertised withPatience as a budgeting problem rather than a virtue, and why cash-strapped brands structurally cannot buy upper funnelWho this is for: operators whose product is landing on shelves in more places every quarter, and whose retail media invoices are growing faster than their ability to explain them.What to steal: find out which budget your retail media is actually coming from. If it is trade, the people approving it are measuring a retailer relationship and the people spending it are measuring sales. Those are different jobs and almost nobody has reconciled them.Harness the Halo is a six-part series from DTC and Keen about the spend that doesn't pay you back the same day, and the measurement that gives you room to make it. Episode 1 was the market read. Episode 2 was the first brand. This one maps the fastest-growing line in the budget.Timestamps:00:00 Why retail media is becoming a major growth channel04:00 Where retail media investment is growing08:00 Why retail media ROI is outperforming other tactics13:00 The upper-funnel opportunity in retail media17:00 Why marginal ROI matters more than ROASSubscribe to DTC Newsletter - https://dtcnews.link/signupAdvertise on DTC - https://dtcnews.link/advertiseWork with Pilothouse - https://dtcnews.link/pilothouseFollow us on Instagram & Twitter - @dtcnewsletterWatch this interview on YouTube - https://dtcnews.link/video

Building wealth from zero is a completely different game than scaling wealth once you already have momentum.At the beginning, you have little capital, limited leverage, no proven systems, and very little room for error.Every dollar requires effort.But once the foundation is built, the rules begin to change.In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down why reaching your first major financial milestone can be significantly harder than multiplying the wealth you have already created.The first phase requires you to create the engine.The next phase is about learning how to leverage it.In this episode, you'll learn:• Why starting from zero creates the greatest amount of financial friction• How systems begin replacing personal effort as a business grows• Why successful entrepreneurs transition from hustlers to capital allocators• How reinvestment, infrastructure, and leverage can accelerate future growthThe truth is simple:The hardest part is building enough momentum to escape the starting line.Once you have capital, systems, people, and a proven business model, you can begin using those resources to create even greater results.Stop trying to personally carry every part of the business.Build the engine.Reinvest the profits.Create leverage.Then allow momentum to compound.Your Network is your NETWORTH!Make sure to add me on all SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS:Instagram: https://jo.my/paulalex2024Facebook: https://jo.my/fbpaulalex2024YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGhDAD1JyGGzSQUPD9lc9HQLinkedIn: https://jo.my/inpaulalex2024Looking for a secondary source of income or want to become an entrepreneur?

Masters are learners, but they are also teachers.Mike Husson returns to the Culture Matters Podcast for Part 2 of his exploration of the Eight Phases of Mastery. This time, the conversation moves beyond understanding the framework and into a much more personal question:Where are you within it, and what is keeping you from moving forward?Jay Doran and Mike explore why intelligent, capable, well-intentioned people can remain stuck despite having access to more information, technology, education, and opportunity than ever before.Mike argues that the problem is rarely a lack of information. It is what we do with the information we already have.Learning requires curiosity. Mastery requires application. And eventually, those who truly understand something have a responsibility to teach it.The conversation revisits the early phases of Mike's framework, beginning with desire. What do you actually want? More importantly, is that desire truly yours, or is it something you inherited from your family, industry, peers, or perception of what success is supposed to look like?From desire comes decision and commitment. Then comes formulation, where the plan is built. But Mike explains that one of the most revealing stages is concentration, the point where the plan meets reality.This is where enthusiasm gets tested.Results may take longer than expected. Other opportunities suddenly look more attractive. People around you may question what you are doing. Technology creates endless alternatives. Comparison creeps in. The temptation to abandon the original commitment grows.Mike compares this phase to an airplane taking off. Getting something off the ground requires tremendous energy and concentration before reaching cruising altitude. You cannot remain at full throttle forever, but you also cannot reach altitude without applying enough force in the beginning.Sometimes the evidence of a powerful desire is simply your willingness to remain committed when the expected results have not arrived yet.Jay also turns the framework inward, questioning where he currently sits within the Eight Phases and whether mastery itself can become the beginning of another breakdown. If someone becomes recognized as an expert, stops questioning, stops learning, or becomes attached to the identity of being "the master," does mastery eventually send them back to the beginning?That leads to one of the most important ideas in the conversation: mastery is not the end of learning. It creates a greater responsibility to continue learning and begin teaching.In this episode, Jay and Mike discuss:Why curiosity is foundational to continued growthThe difference between consuming information and applying itLearning, doing, reviewing, refining, and eventually teachingWhy masters remain studentsHow to identify where you are within the Eight Phases of MasteryDesire as the foundation of every phaseDistinguishing authentic desire from borrowed ambitionWhy commitment must survive long after the original excitement disappearsFormulation as the process of turning desire into a workable planWhy concentration reveals the strength of your commitmentThe danger of expecting results too quicklyWhy intelligent and successful people still get stuckThe relationship between skill set, mindset, and confidenceWhy accountability and mentorship remain necessary at every levelThe importance of becoming comfortable with discomfortWhy too many opportunities can become more dangerous than too fewHow distraction and comparison interrupt concentrationWhy you have to learn to run your own raceThe relationship between younger and older generationsWhy technology cannot replace experience and human connectionHow community can create focus in a world of endless choicesWhether mastery itself can eventually create breakdownWhy being recognized as a master carries a responsibility to give backThe importance of in-person experiences in an increasingly digital worldMike's Eight Phases are not presented as a destination you complete once. They are a framework for continuously examining where you are, what you want, what you have committed to, and what the next level requires from you.Because mastery can become dangerous the moment you believe you have arrived.The greatest masters remain curious. They continue to learn. They continue to question. They continue to practice. And eventually, they take what experience has given them and use it to help someone else move forward.Masters are learners. But they are also teachers.

Prime retail space is hard to find. How does solidcore keep growing?Solidcore is scaling fast. The boutique fitness brand will have approximately 190 locations open by the end of the month, up from about 85 when Josh Rainey joined the company. It expects to reach roughly 240 locations by the end of next year.The demand is there. The real estate is the harder part.Josh, senior director of real estate and growth at solidcore, joins Chris Ressa to explain what it takes to expand a national fitness concept when nearly every growing retailer wants the same 1,800- to 3,000-square-foot spaces.Solidcore is pursuing high-quality real estate across tier-one and tier-two markets, but it does not rely on one property type. The team studies how customers move through each trade area, what conveniences they expect, and which destinations already fit their routines. A street-front studio may work in New York. Surface parking could be critical in Texas. A grocery-anchored center can win when it offers the right mix of food, services, and daily traffic.The larger lesson is that good real estate is not defined by a category. It is defined by the customer.Josh also shares how solidcore doubled the size of a high-performing Chelsea studio by taking over the adjacent space. The expansion required the brand to revisit its lease, navigate a landmarked New York City building, and connect the two studios while closing for only 72 hours. What began as an unusual solution has become a model solidcore plans to replicate.The conversation goes beyond finding available boxes. It examines how co-tenancy reinforces customer habits, why convenience changes from market to market, and how a retailer's lease priorities evolve as the company matures.For landlords, retailers, and investors, solidcore's growth offers a clear takeaway: winning locations come from understanding how people actually use a place—and creating enough value to make them return.What You'll HearHow solidcore grew from approximately 85 studios to nearly 190 locationsWhy the 1,800- to 3,000-square-foot range has become one of retail's most competitiveHow solidcore evaluates street retail, grocery-anchored centers, lifestyle projects, and freestanding locationsWhy customer behavior matters more than adhering to one preferred property typeHow food, beverage, and complementary co-tenants can reinforce a seven-visit-per-month fitness routineWhy parking expectations in Texas are different from those in Los Angeles or MiamiWhat the shift toward services, wellness, and specialized fitness means for retail real estateHow solidcore doubled the size of a successful Chelsea studioWhat a growing retailer can gain by reopening and restructuring an existing leaseWhy reliable rent payments, reinvestment, and a clear growth story matter to landlordsChapters00:00 — Welcome to Retail RetoldChris introduces Josh Rainey, senior director of real estate and growth at solidcore.01:02 — Building a career in retail real estateJosh shares how an early fascination with places and development led him to the retailer side of the business.03:16 — Solidcore's growth storyThe brand has grown from approximately 85 locations to nearly 190, with more expansion ahead.05:10 — Where fitness spending is movingJosh explains why consumers continue to invest in health, wellness, services, and specialized workouts.06:15 — Why boutique fitness keeps fragmentingSmaller classes, specialized formats, recovery, and flexibility are reshaping the fitness landscape.09:40 — Competing for retail's most wanted spaceSolidcore's preferred size range puts the brand in direct competition with many other expanding concepts.11:14 — Choosing the right type of real estateStreet retail, lifestyle centers, grocery-anchored properties, and freestanding buildings can all work under the right conditions.13:34 — Co-tenancy that strengthens a routineJosh breaks down how food, beverage, and complementary brands can make a center more valuable to solidcore customers.15:00 — Convenience changes by marketParking, transit, access, and local expectations influence what makes a location viable.17:40 — The Chelsea expansion storyA high-performing studio needed more capacity, so solidcore looked through the wall instead of across the market.20:46 — Renegotiating for growthThe brand blended the expanded premises into one lease while updating language that no longer matched its standards.23:08 — Connecting two studios in 72 hoursSolidcore kept disruption to a minimum while creating a contiguous dual-studio location.24:38 — A new brand and a larger ecosystemJosh previews solidcore's next concept and the company's ambition to capture more of the customer's wellness spending.25:32 — Retail rapid fireJosh makes the case for bringing back Burdines and Sharper Image—and admits where Chris would find him at Target.

If you're frustrated that your business results don't match the goals you've set, it might be time to look at the choices you're making along the way. In this episode of The Real Truth About Business podcast, I'm breaking down one of the most important principles in business strategy: you get to choose how you run your business, but you also have to accept the trade-offs that come with those choices. You can choose your pricing strategy, how much you work, whether you build a team, how you market, and how aggressively you pursue revenue growth. But you can't make one choice while expecting results that require a completely different one. After 9 years of experience working with service-based entrepreneurs, I've seen how quickly this disconnect creates frustration and revenue plateaus. The goal isn't to make the “right” choice. It's to understand the reality of your choice, build the strategy around it, and own the results that come with it.What You'll Learn:How to recognize when your expectations don't match the business choices you've madeWhy every pricing strategy comes with trade-offs around volume, capacity, and profitHow to build a business strategy around the lifestyle you actually wantWhy choosing to market less can create a less predictable pipelineHow staying a solopreneur impacts capacity and revenue growthThe one question to ask before making any major business decisionEpisode Highlights:[00:00] Introduction: Everything in business is a choice[02:00] Why there really aren't many rules in business[03:00] Pricing for profit and what happens when you choose not to raise your prices[05:30] When your pricing choices don't support your revenue goals[07:30] Building a business strategy around the lifestyle you actually want[10:00] The question to ask: If I choose this, what else am I choosing?[12:00] Choosing not to market consistently and accepting a less predictable pipeline[13:30] Staying a solopreneur and navigating capacity constraints[15:00] Making a choice, owning it, and building the strategy around it[16:30] Wrap-up: The three takeaways for making better CEO decisionsKey Takeaways:You Get to Make the Choice, But You Don't Get to Skip the Trade-OffOne of the greatest things about owning a business is that almost everything is a choice.You can choose what you charge. You can choose how many hours you work. You can choose whether you grow, scale, hire employees, stay a solopreneur, post every day, or completely rethink your business model.There really aren't that many rules.But here's the part we don't talk about enough: you don't get to make a choice and then opt out of what comes with it.Every yes has a trade-off. Every no potentially closes a door. The problem isn't necessarily that you're making the wrong choice. The problem is when you're expecting a result that doesn't align with the choice you made.If You Choose the Price, You're Also Choosing the VolumeI recently attended an SBDC event where we were talking about pricing for profit. Someone raised the concern that his clients would look at the numbers and say they simply couldn't raise their prices because the market wouldn't support it.And my immediate thought was: that's their choice.You can absolutely choose not to raise your prices.But then you also need to understand what that means for your revenue, profitability, capacity, and workload.If you choose a lower price, you're also choosing the client volume required to reach your revenue goal. If the lower price requires more clients, that means more delivery time and potentially reaching your capacity ceiling faster.Inside the Focused Visionary Framework, Pricing cannot exist separately from Pipeline and Sales. Every pricing decision changes what the rest of your business needs to produce.Build the Strategy Around Your Actual LifeI have a client who told me point blank that she likes living a lazy life.And I loved that she owned it.It isn't my job to convince her that she needs to work harder. My job as her strategist is to ask: How do we build a business strategy around the lifestyle you actually want?If she doesn't want a calendar full of calls, we're not going to build an offer ecosystem dependent on tons of one-to-one delivery. If she doesn't want to market everywhere, we need a simpler marketing strategy.Maybe growth happens more slowly.That's okay.The disconnect happens when you say you want to work less, don't want to market, aren't interested in selling, and want to double your revenue in six months.Depending on the business, those choices probably don't support that expectation.Ask: If I Choose This, What Else Am I Choosing?This is the question I want you to start asking yourself:If I choose this, what else am I choosing?If I choose not to raise my prices, I'm choosing the volume required at my current price.If I choose not to market consistently, I'm choosing a less predictable pipeline.If I choose not to build a team, I'm accepting that capacity may eventually create a ceiling.If I choose not to use Instagram, I need to choose another way to consistently market my business.There are two sides to every decision.Your job as CEO is to understand both before deciding whether that choice actually supports the business you want.There's a Strategy for Almost Every ChoiceYou don't want to be on Instagram?Fine. Where do you want to market?You don't want to sell constantly?Okay. Could retention, recurring revenue, or repeat clients reduce the number of new sales you need?You don't want to raise your prices?Fine. Can you handle the volume required at your current price, or can you improve your costs and profitability somewhere else?You want to remain a solopreneur?Great. Then we need offers that allow you to increase revenue without continually adding more delivery hours.This is why I always say that every strategy works, but they're not all going to work for you.Your job isn't to follow someone else's business strategy. It's to understand your choices well enough to build the right strategy around them.Your Expectations Have to Match Your ChoicesThis is where facts over emotion matters.You can look at the numbers and decide you aren't comfortable charging the price the calculator recommends.That's okay.But if that lower price means the big wish-list goal you've created will take longer to achieve, you need to be willing to accept that too.You have two options.Change the choice.Or change the expectation.What doesn't work is holding tightly to both when the numbers tell you they don't coexist.Make the Choice and Own ItThere are three things I want you to take away from this episode.First, you are the business owner. You get to make whatever choice you want.Second, you have to be willing to accept what comes with that choice. Ask yourself, “If I choose this, what else am I choosing?”Third, once you've made an informed choice, own it.Don't immediately second-guess yourself because someone else is doing something different. Don't abandon the strategy because somebody got in your ear. Constantly changing your mind makes it incredibly difficult to build a predictable pipeline, market consistently, and maximize your profitability.Make the choice. Understand the trade-off. Build the strategy around it. Then take action.That's what it means to operate like the CEO of your business.FREE WORKSHOP REGISTRATION - THEY FOUND YOU...NOW WHAT??Resources MentionedGet your FREE Ceo Income PlanBook a CEO Strategy Call Learn more about The Missing Piece IntensiveLearn more about The Focused Visionary AcceleratorDownload the FREE Lead and Conversion TrackerSubscribe to the Sunday Morning Brew NewsletterAbout the Host:Michelle DeNio is a business strategist based in Sarasota, Florida, specializing in helping service-based entrepreneurs break through revenue plateaus using her Focused Visionary Framework.

Working more hours is not always the answer.Sometimes, exhaustion is a sign that the business is relying on the wrong person for the wrong work.In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down why burnout often points to broken leverage—and how delegation, automation, and better systems can help founders reclaim their time and focus.If the CEO is constantly buried in low-value tasks, the company eventually pays the price.Your highest-value work should be centered on decisions, strategy, and opportunities that move the business forward.In this episode, you'll learn:• Why extreme fatigue can signal a lack of leverage• How low-value tasks can steal time from higher-level CEO decisions• Why delegation and automation can multiply your output• How better systems create more mental bandwidth for growthThe truth is simple:You cannot scale by personally carrying every task.Audit where your time is going.Delegate what someone else can handle.Automate what software can repeat.Protect your attention for the decisions only you can make.The goal is not to work the most hours.The goal is to build an operation where every hour produces more value.Fix the math.Build the leverage.Create the freedom.Your Network is your NETWORTH!Make sure to add me on all SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS:Instagram: https://jo.my/paulalex2024Facebook: https://jo.my/fbpaulalex2024YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGhDAD1JyGGzSQUPD9lc9HQLinkedIn: https://jo.my/inpaulalex2024Looking for a secondary source of income or want to become an entrepreneur?

Stoic Lessons for Men Over 40, 50 & 60Episode SummarySome of the most important battles you'll ever fight aren't happening around you.They're happening within you.Between fear and courage. Discipline and comfort. Acceptance and resistance. Seeking approval and trusting yourself. And ultimately, between the man you've been and the man you're trying to become.In this Mindset Academy Monday episode of the Over 40 Alpha Podcast, Funk Roberts explores nine internal battles every man must learn to face, using lessons inspired by the Stoic philosophers Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus and Seneca.Stoicism isn't about becoming emotionless, shutting people out or trying to handle everything alone. Funk explains why strong men still need Brotherhood, family, friends, mentors, coaches, and sometimes professional help. The difference is that while others can stand beside you, there are certain internal battles they cannot win for you.You'll learn how to deal with failure without allowing it to define you, handle being misunderstood, process loss, make difficult decisions without certainty, confront your own weaknesses, live with uncertainty, and stop handing other people control over your confidence.And ultimately, you'll discover why the greatest battle is deciding which man you're building through the choices you make every day.Because after 40, 50 and 60, you have something your younger self didn't have:Experience.You've succeeded. You've failed. You've lost people. You've made mistakes. You've watched plans fall apart. And you've hopefully gained wisdom along the way.The question now is:What are you going to do with that wisdom?What You'll LearnWhy your greatest battles often happen within youWhat Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus and Seneca can teach modern menThe difference between healthy solitude and isolationWhy failure doesn't make you a failureHow to stop needing everyone to understand your decisionsWhy Stoicism does NOT mean suppressing grief or emotionHow to make difficult decisions when you don't have certaintyWhy confronting your own weaknesses is essential for growthThe difference between preparing for the future and obsessing over itHow seeking approval gives other people control over your confidenceWhy your everyday choices are constantly building your characterThe Stoic question that can change how you handle difficult situations: “What is actually within my control?Join The Over 40 Alpha Brotherhood Today - https://www.over40alpha.com/

As a parent, mentor, or simply someone who cares about helping others grow, it's easy to wonder what truly shapes a person's future.In this episode, I sit down with Margot Machol Bisnow, author of Raising an Entrepreneur, to talk about what she learned after interviewing entrepreneurs from all walks of life. Her biggest takeaway? Success isn't about perfect grades or following a traditional path. It's about having someone who believes in you, encourages your passions, and helps you learn from failure.What I loved most about this conversation is that it isn't really about raising entrepreneurs. It's about raising people who are confident enough to trust themselves, resilient enough to adapt when life doesn't go as planned, and courageous enough to pursue what truly lights them up. We also explore how parents can shift from trying to create the "perfect" path to helping their children discover their own. Margot shares why embracing mistakes, finding meaningful mentors, and creating a supportive family environment can have a lasting impact long into adulthood. Whether you're raising children or reflecting on your own journey, I hope this conversation reminds you that sometimes the greatest gift we can give someone is the confidence to become who they were meant to be.In this episode, we discuss:Why believing in your child matters more than having all the answersHow passion helps build confidence and resilienceWhy failure is an important part of growthThe role mentors and supportive families play in a child's futureHow to encourage children to follow their own path with purposeConnect with Margot:Website: https://raisinganentrepreneur.com/Order Raising an Entrepreneur: https://a.co/d/0dGoUnnuInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/margotbisnow/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/margot-machol-bisnow-a29550b5/Adventure on!Send us Fan Mail Support the show✨ Join the Spiritual Horse Seeker Summit

Send us Fan MailThere is a grief that does not get talked about enough.Not the grief of losing someone to death. Not the grief of a dramatic betrayal. But the quieter, more confusing grief of losing someone whose season in your life simply ended. Someone you loved deeply. Someone you assumed would be there for the long haul. Someone you never imagined having to release.In this episode of Just Nona, I am answering a heart question from a listener named Marcella, who loves people with her whole heart, and keeps finding that the people she loves most are the ones whose departure hurts the deepest. She is asking: how many layers of the heart are going to get hurt? And how do you loosen your grip and release the people who cannot go with you into the next season, without closing your heart in the process?This is one of the most tender and important questions a passionate person can ask. And it deserves a real answer.We talk about:Why the people closest to us have the deepest access, and why that is exactly why their loss hurts the mostWhat the grip actually is and the difference between holding tightly out of love and holding tightly out of fearWhy seasonal relationships are not failures and what it means when God determines a relationship is completeWhat John 15:2 says about pruning and why it always feels like loss before it feels like growthThe identity distortion that happens when relational separation leads us to conclude that we loved wrongly or should love lessThe direct answer to how many layers will get hurt and what changes with each one that is navigated wellWhat a healed heart with boldness and boundaries actually looks like in practice and how it reflects Christ more fully than a guarded one ever couldThe goal is not to reach a point where the heart no longer gets hurt. The goal is to reach a point where the hurt no longer produces a grip.

What if spiritual growth isn't measured by how long you've been a Christian, but by how much you're becoming like Christ?In this message from 1 Peter 2:1–10, we discover that new birth in Christ is meant to lead to new growth. Just as children need the right nourishment to grow physically, followers of Jesus need the truth of God's Word to mature spiritually.Peter challenges believers to put away the attitudes and behaviors that stunt spiritual growth—malice, deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander—and instead develop a hunger for God's Word. Because what you feed, grows.But spiritual maturity isn't something we pursue alone. Peter describes followers of Jesus as “living stones” being built together into a spiritual house. The church isn't simply a building we attend or an event we watch—it's a people who are growing up, growing together, and proclaiming the goodness of the One who called them out of darkness and into His marvelous light.In this message, you'll discover:Why new birth should produce new growthThe attitudes and behaviors that can stunt your spiritual maturityHow to develop a greater desire for God's WordWhy spiritual growth requires intentional disciplineWhat it means to be a “living stone” in God's churchWhy church is a people, not a placeHow we can grow up and grow together as followers of Jesus

The Answers Come in the Gap You know that moment. You're not trying to solve anything. You're in the shower, or you're swimming in the pool, and suddenly the answer is there. Clear. Simple. The thing you've been chasing for weeks. Most salon owners never get to that moment. They take holidays and bring the laptop. They step away and they're still checking emails. So their brain never actually stops. Never actually thinks. In this episode, Larissa Macleman and Joel Bouzaid record live from a coaching conference in Thailand — and share the conversation that's been shaping why they bring their salon owners to intensive events like Bali every single year. It's not about the destination. It's about three very specific things that happen when you finally create white space. What you discover when you're around people ahead of you. And why resetting your nervous system is the missing piece in scaling past a million dollars. What you'll discover in this episode: Why the best ideas don't come in meetings — they come in the gapThe real cost of running on hustle when you're trying to scale to a million dollarsWhat happens to your nervous system when you finally switch off (and why your business depends on it)Why being around people ahead of you is non-negotiable for your growthThe moment business shifts from feeling heavy and stale to feeling light and inspired again This episode is for any salon owner who's been grinding. Who feels stuck. Who wonders why business feels so heavy when it shouldn't. You can't build a million-dollar business while you're just hustling. Here's what actually needs to happen.

Brand awareness is one of the most reported metrics in marketing.It's in almost every board deck.Almost every brand tracker.Almost every agency review.But what if it's measuring the wrong thing?In this Sharp Cut, Marc and V explore why mental availability matters more than awareness, why Category Entry Points (CEPs) outperform personas as a planning framework, and why marketers should stop asking "Who is our customer?" and start asking "What buying situations do we need to own?"Topics include:Mental availability vs brand awarenessWhy awareness often fails to predict growthThe power of Category Entry PointsCreative as a targeting systemWhy Meta is moving away from hyper-targetingThe measurement framework marketers should actually useIf you've ever presented a rising awareness score alongside a flat business result, this episode is for you.Chapters:00:00 - Welcome to Sharp Cuts00:35 - Why Brand Awareness Is Misleading02:00 - Mental Availability vs Awareness03:45 - What Should We Measure Instead?05:15 - Category Entry Points Explained07:10 - The Seven Whys Framework08:00 - Why CEPs Changed the Conversation09:00 - Creative Becomes the Targeting Tool11:00 - Why Meta Is Broadening Audiences12:30 - Two Performance Marketers Confess15:30 - Where CEPs Go Wrong16:30 - The Three Cs of Prioritization17:30 - Distinctive Assets & Memory18:30 - Bailey's Case Study19:00 - Stop Measuring Brand Love20:30 - The New Measurement Framework21:30 - Final Takeaways

In this fascinating episode of We Not Me, Dan and Pia step into a leadership world that many listeners may know little about: the US public school system. Their guests, Dr. Kristen Weikle, Superintendent of McLean County Unit 5 in Illinois, and Denise Pontrelli, former superintendent and executive coach, reveal the extraordinary complexity of leading educational systems that serve thousands of students, families and community members.With responsibility for nearly 13,000 students across 24 schools, Kristen's role extends far beyond education. From finance and transportation to communications, infrastructure, staff engagement and community relations, she operates as the CEO of a complex ecosystem with profound influence on the future of her community.The conversation explores how leaders can navigate complexity, avoid the myth that they must have all the answers, and build high-performing teams that work in sync towards a common purpose.Key Topics DiscussedWhat a US school superintendent actually does and why the role resembles that of a CEOLeading a district serving nearly 13,000 students across urban, suburban and rural communitiesThe importance of stakeholder management across students, families, staff, taxpayers and local businessesWhy effective leadership is about multiplying capability rather than being the expertHow executive coaching helps senior leaders create space for reflection and growthThe role of Squadify in helping leadership teams improve alignment, innovation and decision-makingThe power of purpose when leading through uncertainty and complexityBuilding cultures where teams challenge ideas, reflect regularly and take actionKey Quotes"Ultimately, it's always about improving student outcomes." – Dr. Kristen Weikle"You can get so much more done if you have a team of individuals that work together with you." – Denise Pontrelli"We all need to be working towards achieving the goal and making progress together." – Dr. Kristen Weikle"Squadify helps leaders be intentional about where they put their time and energy." – Denise Pontrelli"You don't have to be the expert in everything all the time." – Dr. Kristen WeikleThree Leadership TakeawaysLeadership Is Not About Having All the Answers: Both guests challenge the common belief that leaders must personally solve every problem. In highly complex environments, success depends on building capable teams and trusting their expertise.Purpose Is the Ultimate Compass: When operating in fast-changing, stakeholder-rich environments, purpose helps leaders cut through complexity. For Kristen and her team, every decision ultimately connects back to improving outcomes for students.Reflection Must Lead to Action: Data, discussion and feedback are only valuable when they drive meaningful change. High-performing teams create deliberate moments to pause, reflect and then commit to specific actions.Resources MentionedI Really Needed This Today – Hoda KotbA collection of short, inspiring stories and reflections offering perspective, encouragement and moments of gratitude.The One Percenters: How to Get Things Done Now – Darrell Mann and Shannon FinneganA practical guide to creating focused, high-performing teams capable of delivering meaningful results and implementation.Multipliers – Liz WisemanReferenced by Dan and Pia in the reflection segment, this leadership classic explores how leaders can amplify the intelligence and capability of those around them rather than unintentionally diminishing it.We Not Me ReflectionOne of the strongest themes from this episode is the danger of the "hero leader" mindset. Faced with immense responsibility, leaders often feel pressure to grip tighter, make more decisions and become the centre of everything. Yet Kristen's success comes from doing the opposite: creating alignment, trusting expertise and enabling leadership throughout the system.As Denise observes, sustainable leadership is not about carrying the burden alone—it's about creating the conditions where teams can flourish together.For any leader facing complexity, uncertainty or rapid change, this episode offers a powerful reminder:The goal is not to become indispensable. The goal is to build a team that can achieve more together than any individual could alone.Guest biosDr. Kristen Kendrick-Weikle has spent her entire career in Illinois public education, moving through the classroom, special education leadership, and the principal's office before becoming a superintendent in 2011. She led Warrensburg Latham CUSD #11 for nine years before taking the helm at McLean County Unit 5 School District in 2020, where she remains today. Along the way she earned a doctorate in Educational Leadership from Western Illinois University, researching how Illinois teachers use differentiated instruction — a topic that still shapes how she thinks about school leadership.Denise Pontrelli built her career in Minnesota schools, rising from teacher leadership roles into district administration and eventually the superintendency at Stillwater Public Schools. After leaving the district seat, she moved into consulting and organizational design, first at SiteLogIQ and now as CEO of her own firm, PartnerED Consultants, where she works on leadership development and executive coaching for educators. She holds graduate degrees from the University of Minnesota in both teacher leadership and K-12 administration.

Anika sat down with Katie Krimitsos to explore one of the most counterintuitive business pivots in podcasting history. The conversation revealed the realities of walking away from a successful coaching business to launch the Women's Meditation Network, the process of recognizing the difference between intuition and fear, and how she scaled one podcast into a massive 24-show network. Katie's journey offers a masterclass in alignment, strategic audience building, and honoring your creative evolution while prioritizing family.In This EpisodeThe origins of Biz Women Rock and the power of being a first-mover in the podcast spaceThe terrifying moment intuition told Katie to walk away from her first six-figure yearWhy the most powerful business strategy is distinguishing between your true "voice" and the "noise"The messy, 18-month transition of running two businesses while raising a toddler and a newbornHow to utilize paid ads, app features, and cross-promotions to guarantee podcast growthThe strategy behind building a 24-show network and why not every podcast has to be a massive moneymakerLicensing content, internal product building, and creating a robust, high-converting funnelWhy creative expression—not just profit—must remain the driving force of your workTimestamps00:00 Introduction: The counterintuitive pivot to a 170-million listen empire 01:14 Discovering the power of podcasting in 2013 and launching Biz Women Rock 05:36 The defining moment of intuition: Walking away from a six-figure business 10:30 Launching the Women's Meditation Network and recognizing the open market gap 14:41 How to separate the true voice of intuition from the noise of ego 22:05 Tactical podcast growth: Using paid ads on smaller podcast apps 26:28 The power of cross-promotions and episode swaps for audience sharing28:39 Expanding from one show to a 24-podcast network 38:08 Internal product building and licensing content to third-party apps 46:28 The mind-body-soul connection and finding new creative fulfillment 51:43 Favorite mantra: Why "It's all a game" is the best mindset for successKey Insights & TakeawaysInsight 1: True Intuition Requires Stillness and Practice The voice of intuition is often drowned out by the "noise" of ego, fear, and external expectations. Katie emphasizes that distinguishing between the two requires daily practice in small things—like listening to what your body actually wants to eat—so you can trust the voice when it asks you to make massive business pivots.Insight 2: Strategic Investment is Necessary for Scale While organic growth is important, Katie actively invested in paid advertisements on smaller podcast apps to acquire listeners at a defined cost-per-subscriber. She also leveraged cross-promotions and episode swaps with complementary shows (like sleep podcasts) to consistently bring in highly targeted new listeners.Insight 3: The Network Model Allows for Niche Experimentation Building a 24-show network means that not every podcast has to carry the financial weight of the business. Massive shows (like Sleep Meditation for Women) generate the primary revenue, which affords Katie the freedom to launch highly-niched shows (like Meditation for Panic Attacks or Meditation for Kids) that serve smaller, specific audiences without financial stress.Insight 4: Your Product Can Be Monetized in Multiple Ways Katie recognized early on that her meditations (the MP3/MP4 files) were the actual products. Instead of relying solely on podcast advertising (CPM), she distributes and licenses her content to third-party apps (like Insight Timer and Aura), creating multiple, passive revenue streams from the exact same content.Insight 5: Creative Expression is the Ultimate Driver of Business A business can be highly profitable, but if the founder feels "gray" or "blah," it's often a sign of suppressed creativity. Katie highlights the importance of continually evolving the business—such as incorporating physical well-being into her mind-soul offerings—to ensure the work remains fulfilling and energetically aligned.Resources & Links MentionedWomen's Meditation NetworkMeditate to Magic CourseAbout Katie KrimitsosKatie Krimitsos is the founder and CEO of the Women's Meditation Network, a massive media empire that has garnered over 170 million listens. A pioneer in the podcasting space, she previously hosted the successful Biz Women Rock podcast before making a radical pivot in 2018 to follow her intuition into the meditation space. Today, she manages a network of 24 distinct meditation podcasts while prioritizing time freedom and raising her two daughters.Connect with Katie KrimitsosWebsite: https://womensmeditationnetwork.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/katiekrimitsos/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/womensmeditationnetworkFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/womensmeditationnetworkSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Send us Fan MailMost founders think their biggest growth challenge is strategy.Randy Lyman says it's something far less obvious.After building multiple eight-figure companies, Randy realized that the biggest constraint on growth wasn't sales, marketing, or execution—it was the emotional patterns driving leadership decisions.In this episode of Scaling with People, host Guinevere Curry sits down with Randy to explore how leaders unknowingly create cultures that either accelerate growth or quietly hold it back.You'll learn why blame destroys performance, how psychological safety fuels innovation, and why the best leaders balance accountability with empathy. Randy also shares practical habits any founder can implement immediately to build stronger teams and better business outcomes.In this episode, you'll learn:Why leadership—not strategy—is often the real bottleneck to growthThe three things every employee needs before they'll perform at their bestHow blame quietly erodes trust, innovation, and profitsWhy praise is one of the highest-return leadership tools you can usePractical ways to become a better listener and create stronger teamsHow emotional patterns affect company culture and business performanceWhy taking ownership builds credibility and trust faster than assigning blameThe balance between logic, discipline, empathy, and collaboration that separates good leaders from great onesMemorable Quotes"People drive the numbers. Numbers don't drive people.""I always give credit for success and take the blame for failure.""When people know you believe in them, they show up as the best version of themselves."About Randy LymanRandy Lyman is a physicist, entrepreneur, leadership coach, and the author of The Third Element.

What if the reason your growth is not sticking has nothing to do with discipline?What if the real issue is the room?In this episode, I talk about one of the most overlooked parts of personal growth. Your environment is shaping your identity every single day.The people around you are not just witnessing who you are. They are reinforcing who you are through their reactions, conversations, standards, expectations, and unspoken rules.That is why you can spend an hour journaling, affirming, meditating, and doing the inner work, then step back into a room that pulls you toward the version of yourself you are trying to leave behind.Because one hour of expansion cannot outpace sixteen hours of contraction.This is not a willpower problem.It is an environment problem.We talk about the friendships, group chats, family dynamics, online spaces, and work environments that quietly shape what feels normal for you. We also unpack the question that reveals whether a room is calling you forward or keeping you connected to an identity you have already outgrown.If you have been doing the work but still feel like something is not changing, this episode may help you see the missing piece.Sometimes, you do not need more strategy.You need a different room.What You'll HearWhy affirmations and inner work are not always enoughHow your environment can undo your growth in real timeWhy identity is contagiousHow your nervous system calibrates to the people around youWhy you feel expansive in some rooms and smaller in othersThe unspoken rules inside friendships, families, workplaces, and communitiesHow to recognize when a room supports your growthThe five areas of your environment that need an honest auditWhy your group chats reveal more than you realizeHow family roles can follow you into your business and relationshipsWhy your online environment is constantly shaping your identityHow your work environment affects your standards, confidence, and beliefsThe one question that reveals the truth about every relationshipWhy history does not always mean alignmentWhat the right room actually does to your nervous systemHow the right environment rewires what feels normalWhy growth becomes easier when you stop doing it aloneOne Line To Sit With“You don't rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your environment.”Your Invitation This WeekWrite down the names of the five to seven people you spend the most time with.Then ask yourself:Who do I become around them?Not who do I like around them.Not who have I known the longest.Not who feels familiar.Who do I become?Do I feel more confident?More honest?More expansive?More self-led?Or do I become smaller?Quieter?More doubtful?More connected to a version of myself I have already outgrown?Do not use the answer to judge the relationship.Use it as data.Pay attention to the rooms that reinforce who you used to be.Choose more of the rooms that call forward the woman you are becoming.Clip-Worthy Moments“You can't outgrow a room you're still spending all your time in.”“You don't rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your environment.”“Identity is contagious. You catch it from the people you spend time with, whether you want to or not.”“Every room has unspoken rules.”“Show me your group chats and I'll show you your nervous system.”“Inspiration is cheap. Anyone with a Canva account can inspire you.”“Find women who don't get weird when you grow.”“The right room reflects the woman you're becoming, not the woman you're trying to leave behind.”“The right room does not just inspire you. It rewires what feels normal.”Mentioned In This EpisodeThe Unblocked Women CollectiveThe Mirror™The Unblocked Method™Save this episode for the next time you start questioning why the work is not sticking.Then send it to the woman who has been doing all the inner work but still feels like something is missing.It might be the room.

Most private practice owners think improving profitability means seeing more patients.The truth? Many clinics already have enough capacity; they just aren't maximizing it.In Episode 2 of the High-Performance Practice Series, Nathan Shields and Adam Robin break down one of the most overlooked drivers of clinic profitability: schedule efficiency and utilization.They explain why knowing your break-even point is the foundation of every scheduling decision, how to calculate provider production expectations, and why your front desk team plays one of the biggest roles in protecting your profit margin.From building accountability dashboards to creating scheduling systems that keep providers productive, this episode provides a practical framework for turning empty appointment slots into predictable revenue—without sacrificing patient care.In this episode, you'll learn:Why schedule utilization is one of the most important profitability metricsHow to calculate your clinic's true break-even pointThe revenue expectations every provider should understandHow to use provider productivity metrics to improve financial performanceWhy front desk systems not just marketing drive clinic growthThe scheduling dashboard that keeps your team accountable every dayHow to build battle plans before empty schedules become a problemThe characteristics of a high-performing front desk team memberWhen high utilization signals it's time to hire another providerHow better scheduling improves patient outcomes while increasing profitabilityWhether you're trying to improve provider productivity, increase revenue without adding staff, or simply gain more control over your clinic's operations, this episode gives you practical systems you can begin implementing immediately.Join us at the High-Performance Practice Conference and learn the systems, leadership strategies, and operational frameworks that help private practice owners build more profitable, purpose-driven clinics.Want to talk about how we can help you with your PT business, or have a question you want to ask?

Send us Fan MailMost companies don't fail because of bad strategy.They fail because every executive is telling a different story.Sales has one message. Marketing has another. Product builds toward something different. HR hires for a vision no one can clearly explain.The result? Growth slows, execution gets messy, and leadership spends more time aligning than building.In this episode of Scaling with People, host Gwenevere Crary sits down with serial entrepreneur, investor, and co-author of The Category Creation Formula, Mike Damphousse, to explore why leadership alignment starts with language—not another strategic planning session.You'll learn:Why leadership misalignment quietly kills growth long before it shows up in revenueThe "airplane pitch" every CEO should use to test whether their executive team is truly alignedWhy category-leading companies focus on defining markets instead of chasing competitorsHow to evolve your company's positioning without disrupting what's already workingWhy sales, marketing, and product teams must speak the same language to accelerate growthThe balance sheet metric founders should pay more attention to when measuring long-term valueIf your leadership team feels busy but disconnected, this conversation will help you identify the warning signs before they become expensive.Key Takeaway:Scaling isn't just about having the right strategy. It's about ensuring every leader can clearly communicate the same vision.If you enjoyed this episode, follow Scaling with People for weekly conversations with founders and experts who share practical strategies for scaling companies through stronger leadership, smarter systems, and better people practices.Support the show

This one is a throwback and the lessons apply to every dealer principal and owner listening.Tristan Wright is a business coach from Australia known as the Business Sherpa. He is not from the powersports world, and that is exactly why this conversation is valuable. Tristan built his first company to seven figures by his mid-twenties, then lost it all, over $200,000 in debt and his marriage along with it. He took ownership, rebuilt the business, systematized it so it did not need him, and sold it. Now he helps other owners climb their own mountain.In this conversation, Tristan makes the case that the principles holding a dealership back are the same ones holding back any business, and that the owners who win are the ones willing to step outside their own industry, step away from the daily grind, and stay open-minded enough to change.What we cover:What a Business Sherpa actually is and why every owner climbing a mountain needs a guide who has been to the topTristan's story: seven figures by 25, lost it all by 27, and the ownership mindset that turned it aroundWhy letting go of ego and arrogance is the first step to growthThe 90-day rule: why Tristan will not coach a client unless they commit to four days fully disconnected every quarterWhy running at 60 to 70% all the time is what happens when you never step away to rechargeWhy working on the business matters more than working in the businessThe trap of the owner who will not delegate the mundane jobs and stays stuck because of itWhy 20 groups and masterminds help, but are not enough on their ownWhy so many dealers do not dream big enough and just aim to match the shop down the roadThe real difference between open-minded and closed-minded owners, and why it determines who succeedsWhy what worked in the past will not carry you forward, and why growth requires discomfortThe one or two dealers in any market who already look outside the industry and are pulling ahead because of itWatch on YouTube: ⁠https://youtube.com/@dealershipfixit⁠Connect with Jacob: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacob-b-berry/⁠Follow the Fixit Online: ⁠https://linktr.ee/dealershipfixit⁠MotoHunt for Dealers: ⁠https://dealers.motohunt.com⁠

I share real stories about nitpicky typo trolls, cyberbullying from years ago, people who send you two and a half pages of “do a different show,” and how other podcasters are using their audience—and even Snapchat—to get honest, constructive criticism.By the end, you'll see why I say feedback is the “breakfast of champions,” and why your fear of judgment shouldn't keep your show stuck on your hard drive.What You'll LearnTrolls vs. Focus GroupsHow I define a troll: unsolicited, emotionally charged feedback that's mostly about getting a reaction.How I define a focus group: people who actually want to help shape and improve your show.Why some “trolls” are really just frustrated fans who want attention.Classic Troll Bait TopicsThe three topics that almost guarantee you'll attract trolls:PoliticsNews / current eventsReligionWhy I'm okay with pushback when I brush up against these—and why you should expect it if your show leans into them.My Rules for Dealing with TrollsRule #1: Don't feed the trolls.I talk about why I always try to wait before responding.How I “kill them with kindness” when I choose to reply.Why I often simply say, “Thanks for the feedback,” and move on.How I remind myself that sometimes people are just having a bad day, and I happened to be standing in front of them.Turning Feedback into a Tool for GrowthThe key question I always ask: “Do they have a point?”An example: being told, “You interrupt your guests too much,” and how I go back, listen, and honestly assess if they're right.How I respond when someone clearly just wants me to do a completely different show than the one I want to make.How I Engage Without Losing My CoolWhy I sometimes ask, “How could I have done this better?” to separate useful advice from empty criticism.How I ask for evidence or sources in a non-defensive way:“I'm interested in digging into this—can you share a link?”When I'll share my sources and politely stand my ground.When I decide it's time to block, report, and move on, especially on platforms like YouTube.Knowing My Audience (and My Why)How knowing who my show is for makes it easier to ignore the wrong people.Why I consider the nastiest haters as “not my target audience.”The math I look at: out of hundreds of reviews, only a tiny percentage are negative—but they love to hog my attention if I let them.Stories and Examples I ShareMark Maron on Trolls as “Frustrated Love”A clip from Mark Maron talking about trolls who keep coming back.How he describes repeat trolls as people who are weirdly in love with you and just want you to get mad so they feel seen.The Typo TrollThe listener who went absolutely ballistic over typos and sent me 5–6 paragraph rants.How I handled it when the comments got personal.How I eventually “trolled the troll” with humor and kindness and watched him disappear (and reappear…and disappear again).Madame Strangeways & Fear of FeedbackA conversation with Madame Strangeways who was reluctant to ask for feedback because of a cyberbullying incident 20 years ago.How I encourage her (and you) to start with trusted fans and patrons as a safe focus group.My “too much salt in the bread” analogy: people who love what you're making will still tell you if something's off, because they have to consume it.Jr. Sparrow & Building a Focus GroupHow Jr. Sparrow used Snapchat's Snap Map to find brutally honest listeners.How he turned “this show is crap” comments into a small group that now:Helps him curate which episodes to release.Shapes themes and content months in advance.Why he says you need “skin like Shrek” (thick skin, many layers) if you want to attach dollar signs to your show.Using Feedback Before You PublishHow experienced podcasters (including me) use feedback on topics, guests, and angles before episodes ever hit the feed.Why I'd rather kill an episode early than spend years promoting something that doesn't resonate with my audience.SnapChat's Snap Map FeatureSnapchat's Snap Mapshttps://youtu.be/l4R-wu42gZk?si=BVhAiDeB_Tq6anoOGetting Data From Snap Maphttps://youtu.be/qGxblSXvEbU?si=KoeDP8aI32uKvKjSMy Key Takeaways for YouYou are already being judged—at Home Depot, in the grocery line, everywhere—so a few online comments shouldn't paralyze you.A tiny slice of reviews will be negative; they don't outweigh the huge percentage of people who get value from your show.Feedback is how you get better. You can't fix what you don't know is broken.Learn to separate:Trolls – don't feed them, or reply calmly and briefly.Constructive critics – look for the truth in what they're saying.True fans / focus groups – invite them in and let them help you refine the show.If someone hates your show and clearly isn't who you're trying to reach, there's a simple name for them: not your audience.Mentioned in This EpisodeSchool of Podcasting – Where I help you plan, launch, and grow your podcast, including listener parties to get safe, constructive feedback.Ask the Podcast Coach – My live call-in/chat show for free podcast consulting.Podpage – Website platform for podcasters (I'm the Head of Podcasting there).Madame Strangeways – True strange stories at madamestrangeways.com.Jr. Sparrow – WVU Uncommon Place – Society and culture in West Virginia.Call to ActionTell me what you think:Let me know one thing you love and one thing you'd change about this show at schoolofpodcasting.com/contact or schoolofpodcasting.com/voicemail.Need help with your podcast?If you want a safe place to get honest feedback and improve your show, join me at SchoolOfPodcasting.com and use the coupon code LISTENER for a discount.
