Welcome to Quick Fire Friday, the Grow A Small Business podcast series that is designed to deliver simple, focused and actionable insights and key takeaways in less than 20 minutes a week. Every Friday, we bring you business owners and experts who share their top strategies for growing yourself, your team and your small business. Get ready for a dose of inspiration, one action you can implement and quotable quotes that will stick with you long after the episode ends! In this episode of Quick Fire Friday, host Rob Cameron interviews Trent Morgan, founder of Motivision, shares how he helps businesses overcome burnout, poor accountability, and misaligned teams through leadership alignment and cultural transformation. He explains the importance of clarity, communication, and regular team check-ins to build trust and improve performance. Trent discusses real-world examples of companies that reduced turnover and reignited motivation by aligning people with purpose. He also highlights the impact of systems and structure in sustaining growth. His insights reveal why most business issues stem from a lack of clarity, not performance. Listeners will learn practical steps to create more connected and purpose-driven workplaces. Key Takeaways for Small Business Owners: Clarity is the foundation of success – Teams perform better when everyone knows their role, purpose, and what's expected of them. Alignment beats effort – Hard work alone doesn't guarantee results; aligning people, purpose, and systems creates real progress. Regular check-ins build strong culture – Simple habits like weekly huddles and monthly reviews keep teams connected and supported. Our hero crafts outstanding reviews following the experience of listening to our special guests. Are you the one we've been waiting for? Leadership must focus on vision, not firefighting – Great leaders work on the business, not just in it, ensuring long-term stability. Reducing burnout increases productivity – When teams feel heard and supported, engagement rises and burnout drops significantly. Systems sustain performance – Businesses don't rise to goals—they fall to the level of their systems, so structure and rhythm are essential. One action small business owners can take: According to Trent Morgan, one action small business owners can take is to hold regular team check-ins or huddles to ensure everyone is aligned on goals, clear about their roles, and supported in their work — fostering stronger communication, trust, and accountability.

What if the very habits that built your success are now the ones holding you back? Many high achievers thrive on pushing harder, sleeping less, and powering through stress, but this approach eventually takes its toll. The strategies that once created results can become the same ones that lead to burnout, leaving you disconnected from your body, mind, and purpose.   In this episode, Melissa continues the conversation with former professional tennis player and performance coach Jeff Salzenstein. They explore Jeff's Own Your Zone framework, a holistic approach that helps leaders restore the body, rewire the mind, and reconnect the heart. Whether you are ready for an overhaul or want to start with three simple shifts, this framework will help you create results that last.   Let's talk!

Do you ever end the day feeling like you were busy nonstop… but somehow didn't really get anything done? Between the texts, the quick favors, the emails, the “just a minute” tasks—it's no wonder our focus feels shredded. Research from UC Irvine shows that after each interruption, it takes an average of 23 minutes to fully return to your original task. Multiply that by a few dozen interruptions, and there goes your deep work. In this solo episode, Kate shares the simple system she uses to protect her focus without letting the rest of life fall apart. It's a daily practice that corrals distractions, clears mental clutter, and helps you end the day feeling both productive and peaceful. You'll learn: Why “just a quick reply” can secretly cost you half an hour of focus What context switching does to your brain (and how to stop it) How to separate what's urgent from what's important The hidden power of batching micro-tasks How to close the workday with clarity and calm This small mindset shift can change the way you work, lead, and live—no assistant required.

On this 298th episode of Take Flight Weekly, I'm revealing the five high-performance strategies that have stood the test of time—the fundamentals I would build my entire business around if I had to start over from scratch in 2008. If you study elite-level producers long enough, you'll notice their success looks deceptively simple. They don't chase every shiny object. They master a small set of principles and live them daily. Performance at the highest level isn't about doing more—it's about doing more of what matters, better. Every year, Q4 gives me the time and space to think. This week, during one of those thinking sessions, I asked myself: "If I had to start all over, what five strategies would I build my business around?" In this episode, I break down the five non-negotiable strategies every full-service, full-fee real estate advisor and entrepreneur must master: Use Goals for Fuel. Use Vision for Why. Your goals create structure, but your vision gives it soul. Goals are short-term metrics. Vision is the long-term emotional destination that guides every decision. Declutter Your Life. Fly Light. Simplify your systems, schedule, and surroundings so your energy stays focused on the vital few. Complexity kills execution. Clarity creates capacity. The Weekly Meeting with Yourself. Create your weekly business plan—the most powerful routine for driving consistent results. If you want to win quarters, you have to win weeks. Set aside 1-2 hours weekly to review calls, texts, emails, and DMs. This turns chaos into clarity. Commit to Your CRM. Your CRM is the structural side of the Law of Compensation. It organizes your five lists: Top 100, Top 100 Referral Partners, Warm List, Hot List, and Local Collaborators. Without it, you're operating on memory instead of data. Your CRM is your future income. Use Social Media for Intelligence, Retention, and Conversion. Social media is your digital credibility platform. It serves three purposes: Intelligence (track what clients are up to), Retention (clients confirm you're active and producing), and Conversion (prospects search you first—if you're not verifiable, they move on). BONUS: Create Space to Think. Your best ideas arrive when you pause long enough to listen. Reflection is not idle time—it's strategy. Thoughts create feelings. Feelings create action. Action creates results. These six strategies are the operating system for a scalable business and a sustainable life. When you declutter, plan intentionally, build structure around relationships, and show up online with purpose, you create momentum that compounds. Consistency and simplicity wins. Complexity and chaos fails every single time.

In this powerful episode of Pushing the Limits, Lisa Tamati sits down with visionary entrepreneur, Bitcoin OG, and author of The Price of Tomorrow — Jeff Booth. Jeff shares his profound insights on why our current financial system is breaking under the weight of exponential technological deflation and debt-driven inflation, and why Bitcoin offers not just an alternative — but a path toward hope, truth, and sovereignty. Together, they explore how exponential technology is rewriting the rules of economics, why central banks can't stop printing without collapse, and what a deflationary future built on sound money could mean for humanity's evolution. Booth's clarity on macroeconomics, human nature, and the moral imperative of Bitcoin offers a deeply philosophical — yet practical — roadmap for navigating the coming decade. If you've ever wondered how innovation, integrity, and decentralised systems intersect to redefine the future of money and freedom, this episode is essential listening. Jeff Booth Bio: Jeff Booth is a visionary leader, technology entrepreneur and best-selling author of The Price of Tomorrow – Why Deflation is Key to an Abundant Future.  With his expertise in technology, system thinking and design, he is at the forefront of a transition from an economic system built for the past, and one built for the future. Jeff has been featured in Forbes, TechCrunch, Inc.com, The Globe and Mail, BNN, Fast Company, Entrepreneur, Bloomberg, TIME, and The Wall Street Journal. In 2015, he was named BC Technology Industry Association's (BCTIA) Person of the Year, and in 2016 Goldman Sachs named him among its 100 Most Intriguing Entrepreneurs. He is a Founding Partner of Ego Death Capital, Co-Founder of addy and NocNoc.  He has been a Young Presidents Organization member since 2004 and contributes time as a Founding Fellow at the Creative Destruction Lab.

My guest today is Sage Berryman, CEO of Aluula Composites (TSXV: AUUA). Aluula is focused on revolutionizing material science. Founded in 2019, the company has developed a patented process for producing ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) composites without glues—fusing at the molecular level to create materials that are lighter, stronger, more durable, and fully recyclable. This “mono-material” design also enables circularity and addresses the growing demand for PFAS-free solutions. The company first gained traction in windsports through its Ocean Rodeo subsidiary, but following a 2023 RTO and a 2024 strategic refocus under Sage's leadership, Alula divested Ocean Rodeo to concentrate on becoming an ingredient brand. Today, Aluula is targeting both premium outdoor markets—packs, tents, wind sports—and larger commercial and industrial applications, where strength, durability, and recyclability are key. Aluula will be presenting at our conference in Toronto, the Planet MicroCap Showcase on October 21-23, and invited her on to discuss: The science behind Aluula's glue-free composites Strategic pivot from Ocean Rodeo to ingredient branding Long but improving sales cycles for adoption Differentiation from commodity materials like polyester and nylon Expansion plans into higher-volume industrial applications Financial discipline, with recent margins of 40–45% For more information about Aluula Composites, please visit: https://aluula.com/ This podcast was recorded and is being made available by SNN, Inc.

The C-suite is the engine room of organizational success, yet most leaders struggle to build one that truly performs. It's not just about hiring talented individuals—you need the right mix of complementary skills, aligned vision, and chemistry that transforms organizations. In this episode of Leadership Lounge, we talk to two of our trusted advisors—Danny Ryan and Andres Gil-Casares—who share their perspectives on: The biggest mistakes CEOs make when building executive teams and how to avoid them Why cultural fit and behavioral alignment matter as much as technical excellence How to build C-suites that can drive transformation and adapt to future challenges Why leaders who admit mistakes and foster open dialogue create higher-performing teams "You need to find people that are interested in learning things instead of just knowing things. This means having people on your teams who are interested in asking questions, getting out of the comfort zone, and thinking outside the box." Andres Gil-Casares Leadership Advisor, Russell Reynolds Associates Four things you'll learn from this episode Avoid the echo chamber—hiring executives who think like you can create dangerous groupthink; prioritize diversity of thought over comfort and familiarity. Balance technical excellence with cultural fit—the most damaging hires have strong credentials but undermine company values, causing talented people to leave. Create psychological safety for fast learning—C-suites that can admit mistakes, test quickly, and iterate outperform those focused on appearing perfect. Address performance issues quickly and compassionately—the top regret amongst new CEOs is not moving fast enough on making changes to their top team. In this episode, we will cover: (01:52) The risk of unconscious bias and why hiring people who challenge you is critical (03:49) Why cultural fit can't be underestimated when making C-suite hires (06:17) The distinction between learning and knowing and why curiosity drives transformation capability (08:17) How leading by example and admitting failures gives others permission to be more authentic (09.14) The importance of establishing clear governance frameworks to enable quick decision-making under pressure (12:10) Why delaying difficult decisions about underperforming executives erodes trust A closer look at the research from this episode: Transformational Leadership Study 2025 | Russell Reynolds Associates CEO Transitions Research | Russell Reynolds Associates

In today's episode, Steve sits down with Dr. Amy Athey, founder of Athey Performance. Her mission is to make the tools of elite performance accessible and human. Amy is a nationally recognized performance psychologist and executive coach with more than two decades of experience working with NCAA champions, Olympians, Navy SEALs, Fortune 500 leaders, and individuals navigating complex lives. She shares how business leaders can help their teams feel more connected to their organization's purpose and talks about what drives high-achievers. Steve and Amy also discuss stress in the cybersecurity industry and why rest is absolutely crucial for success.  Key Takeaways: Leaders can address rising anxiety, burnout, and disconnection across all levels of their organization by fostering empathy, trust, and a stronger sense of shared purpose. Work with elite athletes and special forces has taught Athey that in high stress environments, recovery and rest are as essential to peak performance as hard work.

Close your eyes and take three deep breaths. We've seen the return of energy stores just from that disconnection in that moment. So when you're sympathetically engaged, basically you're in that fight or flight response, you're trying to solve that problem.” - Amy Athey “And so keeping it simple with each of those. If people wanna take deep dives, certainly I could share the value of that. But some of the culture around hacking and like the quick fixes, that's what I will push up against until I'm blue in the face. Building in wellness as a foundation for performance isn't about a quick fix, if we could do just 80% of this, like how can you reduce some of the processed foods in your diet? How can you make sure you're hydrating? Movement.

Kristen also introduces the four main survival responses (fight, flight, freeze, and fawn) and how they show up in real life, business, parenting, and more.Whether you feel stuck in cycles of burnout, perfectionism, or chronic overworking—this episode will help you understand the real driver behind those patterns and how to finally change them.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy hustle is often a survival strategy, not a strategy for successThe neuroscience behind why we freeze, overwork, or people-please under stressHow early childhood experiences shaped your default stress responseThe difference between reaction and response—and why it mattersWhy information alone isn't enough: the gap between knowledge and actionHow to begin regulating your nervous system in real-timeTimestamps00:00 – Intro: Life as a sideline sports mom02:00 – Recapping the three-part healing series03:30 – The survival response hidden inside hustle culture04:35 – Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and how it shows up in business05:28 – The real reason we stay stuck in reactivity loops06:35 – Looking for security in external outcomes (and why it backfires)07:30 – Childhood experiences that shaped our nervous systems08:20 – Example: scarcity, chaos, and “fighting for the meat”10:00 – Why children default to shame without external narration11:00 – How childhood survival strategies bleed into adulthood12:00 – What your frontal lobe does—and why it goes offline under stress13:00 – The “infobesity epidemic” and why personal development isn't working14:50 – The two speeds we operate in: 0 or 100 mph15:45 – Nervous system regulation is the real key to high performance16:30 – What triggers actually feel like in the body (even online)17:48 – Our brain's obsession with certainty and black-and-white thinking19:00 – One grounding question to ask when you're spiraling20:25 – Kristen's own journey with chronic dysregulation and burnout21:27 – The four major nervous system stress responses explained22:30 – Fight: control as a form of safety23:34 – Freeze: perfectionism, overthinking, and inability to start24:30 – Fawn: people-pleasing as emotional self-preservation25:45 – How to create safety for others with different responses26:20 – Social media and collective dysregulation27:15 – Rear lobe vs. frontal lobe thinking28:00 – From reaction to conscious response: the real work29:10 – One simple regulation tool to start using today30:00 – Regulating ≠ never being triggered—it's about knowing what to do31:00 – Why this conversation is the future of personal development32:03 – Take the new stress type quiz + download the full 26-page reportKey TakeawaysMost people are unknowingly operating from survival mode every dayYour nervous system is either helping or hijacking your decision-makingHigh performers are often stuck in hustle loops not from laziness, but from dysregulationTrue transformation doesn't happen from learning more—it happens when we can apply what we know, and...

Send us a textOver the past eight years, I've had the privilege of sitting down with Stuart McMillan four different times—twice in one-on-one conversations, and twice in duo sessions. Each time, I've walked away with fresh insight into not only his coaching and business practices but also his perspective on life.Stuart is an eclectic soul—artist by nature (once known as Fingermash in the DJ world), lover of literature and the written word, and a man who carried that artistic spirit into the world of sports science and, most intentionally, the world of speed.Restless, curious, and fiercely individual, Stu built his own laboratory for human performance. Today, as CEO of ALTIS, he continues to shake the trees of our industry. One of his favourite quotes comes from George Bernard Shaw: "The reasonable man adapts himself to the world: the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man."In this episode (#443), I've woven together the best of those conversations—an assembly of wisdom, experience, and candid reflection that has shaped me as much as I hope it inspires you.Stu is more than a world-class performance coach and sharp businessman—he's also a good friend. I'm excited to share his voice and his wisdom with you once again.Enjoy the show!If you liked this EP, please take the time to rate and comment, share with a friend, and connect with us on social channels IG @Kingopain, TW @BuiltbyScott, LI+FB Scott Livingston.

Nonprofits talk about programs, fundraising, and boards—but rarely about how to build and lead a modern finance team. JMT Consulting's Taylor Bost and Samantha Tiso deliver a clear, practical playbook for turning finance from a back-office function into a strategic engine.Samantha reframes the relationship right out of the gate: “We view the finance department as the customer support for the rest of the company.” That posture—service, responsiveness, and clarity—reduces fear, boosts collaboration, and speeds decisions. It also demands better systems. As she puts it, “With the right system… that is possible if you have it structured the right way.” Translation: good data in, fast insight out.Taylor widens the lens to organization-wide alignment. Finance is not just P and L. It is grants, restrictions, repeat donor behavior, and cost to raise a dollar—metrics that reshape priorities across teams. That is why she pushes for a single ‘source of truth' and warns against siloed tools: when data is scattered, people end up re-keying information and fixing errors. Her reminder lands: “Every time a human's touching something… you're opening yourself up to room for error.”Measurement matters too—of the finance team itself. Taylor offers practical KPIs any CEO or board can use: monthly close time, volume of audit adjustments, and adoption of automation. If close cycles are drifting from 5–7 business days to 15–20, there is friction you can remove with better workflow, integrations, and roles.Governance shows up repeatedly. Samantha adds: “The C-suite needs to be looking at it. The board needs to be looking at it.” Confidence in numbers is confidence in the organization. And with grantmakers demanding more frequent and better-substantiated reports, integrated systems are no longer optional—they are essential.The quick-paced convo also tackles outsourced and remote finance. Success hinges on clear ownership of recurring tasks, documented deadlines, and transparent communication channels. Taylor's advice: break the monthly engine into parts—reconciliations, payment application, approvals—so nothing stalls.The icing on the cake? We get a preview of Innovate 2026 conference and JMT's three-decade journey—from early outsourced accounting to full-stack finance technology and process advisory. Samantha shares how Innovate blends training with thought leadership on grants, banking, interest rates, and board communication, ensuring every role—from CFO to controller to ops—walks away with practical upgrades.Big takeaway: modern nonprofit finance is a service mindset plus integrated tech plus shared accountability. Or in Taylor's words, “CFOs step a little bit more into the tech strategy role.” When finance leads with service and systems, everyone rows in the same direction—and mission moves faster.Find us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

There's the kind of work that looks good in a highlight reel, and then there's the kind that smells like bleach in July, stretches four feet from tip to tip, and requires the audacity to keep going when it would be easier to quit. This week we sit down with Cassie Everson of Wanderlust Skulls to talk about the ditch, the mountaintop, and the discipline of making art that endures.Artist and entrepreneur Cassie Everson has been shaping the modern Western aesthetic for nearly a decade through her work as Wanderlust Skulls. If you've ever saved an image of a painted longhorn skull to your Pinterest board, chances are you've already encountered her signature pieces: bold, abstract, distinctly Western, and always authentic.But this conversation isn't a how-to on creative business, it's a rare look into the unglamorous, cyclical reality behind it.
