Joe and Carla Policastro, co-founders of Cycle CPA, join Phil to discuss why financial clarity is the foundation of a healthy snow and landscape business. From managing the cash flow challenges of seasonal work, to benchmarking your numbers against industry peers, to why your bank balance only tells part of the story, this husband and wife team shares how proactive accounting and advisory work help contractors make confident decisions instead of operating on gut feel. They also open up about the personal journeys that drive their mission to serve hardworking business owners in the green and snow industries. Key Learnings Your Bank Balance Is Only Part of the Picture - Checking your account daily tells you what you have right now, but future cash flow forecasting shows you what is coming and what to watch out for. Seasonal Businesses Must Build Cash Reserves - Snow and landscape operations need enough cash saved during busy months to carry them through slow seasons and economic downturns. Get Your Numbers Fast to Decide Fast - The earlier you receive accurate monthly financials, the quicker you can make confident business decisions. Benchmark Against Industry Peers, Not Just Last Year - Comparing your numbers to industry averages reveals problems like labor costs running higher than competitors, pointing you toward what needs fixing. Make Decisions on Data, Not Gut Feel - Business owners without timely, accurate information are operating in the dark, while knowing your numbers lets you plan the future with confidence. Track Labor Hours Against Each Job - In a labor-intensive industry, knowing how many hours are budgeted toward a specific job and tracking time against it is critical to protecting your margins.

Is it too late for you to prevent dementia? Even if you have a family history of dementia there are steps you can take to lower your risks. You know it's important to train your physical body, but are you training your brain? It's possible to improve your cognitive ability as you age. And what's good for the brain is good for keeping away unwanted belly fat. Lifestyle is crucial: dietary patterns, movement, sleep, social connections, avoiding alcohol and tobacco, managing stress and adequate sleep play a role. It's also important to keep your blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol and weight under control. Correcting vision or hearing loss is important too. Speed training, or speed processing helps increase your brain's reaction time which helps maintain the ability to drive. Studies show it lengthens independence and reduces the development of dementia.  If you're ready to dive deeper into brain health, join the Healthy Looks Great on You Lab.  0:00 Introduction 0:37 Can You Improve After 65? 1:03 Brain vs. Belly: The Connection 2:46 8 Lifestyle Interventions to Prevent Dementia 3:35 Move & Dietary Patterns 5:33 Sleep, Stress & Social Connection 6:51 Know Your Numbers & Sensory Health 7:47 Speed Training for the Brain 9:25 BrainHQ & The ACTIVE Study 11:40 Call to Action & Final Challenge

I'd love to hear from you 'text the show'WelcomeWelcome back to Treat Your Business, the show for clinic owners who want real, honest advice and tried and tested ways of doing things. I'm Katie Bell, and this is the new era of bigger insights and bolder conversations to help you grow a clinic and a life you love. Let's dive in.Episode summaryWhat if you did not need more clients to grow? In this episode, I'm sharing why the fastest, simplest way to take your clinic to the next level is often not about adding more, but about getting 10% better at the things already happening inside your business.I talk through the compound effect of small improvements across three core areas: conversion, retention, and pricing. When you turn the dial up by just 10% in each of these, you can increase revenue and profit without spending more on marketing, hiring more staff, or chasing the next shiny strategy.This is a CEO level shift. Moving from guessing to leading, from reacting to deciding, and from being in the business to actually running it.Key takeawaysSmall improvements compound fast. A 10% lift in the right places can create a huge difference over a year.Conversion matters more than you think. If you're converting 70% of new patients into ongoing care, improving that to 80% can increase weekly sessions without spending another pound on marketing.Retention is where profit often lives. The real profit is rarely in session one. It is in sessions 2, 3, 4, 5, and beyond, when clients stay long enough to get results.Pricing increases do not need to be scary. Even a small increase, applied consistently across your client base, adds up quickly over 12 months.Most clinics do not have a lead problem, they have a leakage problem. Money comes in, then leaks out through poor follow up, weak rebooking, and missed reactivation. Fix the leak before you pour more in at the top.Systems beat goals. If you do not have a system for tracking and improving your numbers, you will keep hitting a ceiling, no matter how hard you work.Knowing your numbers is leadership. When you understand your numbers, you can do less, make better decisions, and feel more in control.ResourcesAtomic Habits by James ClearIf this episode has been a nudge to step out of the day to day and focus on what actually moves the needle, take it. For most clinics, that 10% is the difference between stress and control, between busy and profitable, and between feeling stuck and actually growing.Thanks for listening to the Treat Your Business podcast.

I'd love to hear from you 'text the show'WelcomeWelcome back to the Treat Your Business podcast. I'm Katie Bell, and today I'm talking about the illusion of more. If you've been telling yourself you just need more money, more enquiries, more staff, or more sessions, this episode is your reminder to pause and look at what's actually happening inside your clinic.Episode SummaryMost clinic owners assume they have a growth problem, but often the real issue is hidden in the numbers. It might be conversion, retention, pricing, capacity, utilisation, or the way your diary is structured.In this quick fire episode, I share why guessing is costing you control, and the five numbers I believe every clinic owner needs to know. I also tell you how getting clear on my own numbers from month one helped me build a consistently profitable clinic, pay myself every month, and make decisions with confidence.Key TakeawaysIf you do not know your numbers, you are always guessing.“More” can be a distraction from fixing what is actually broken.A clinic can feel busy and still leak revenue through gaps, churn, poor conversion, or inefficient diary management.Your business is talking to you all the time, and it speaks through numbers.Clarity creates control. Once you see the truth in the data, you cannot unsee it.The five numbers I want every clinic owner to knowHow many enquiries you get each weekYour conversion rate from enquiry to new patient booking, and from new patient to ongoing treatmentYour average visits per clientYour average revenue per sessionYour utilisation, how full your diary actually is and how effectively hours turn into revenueIf you are listening and thinking, I do not really know those numbers and I am guessing, then take this as your sign to pull yourself out of the weeds and get a grip on what is actually going on in your clinic.You deserve a clinic that works well for you, and you deserve to make a fantastic living from the business you are building. That starts with knowing your numbers.Thanks for listening, and I'll see you again next week.Treat Your Business podcast is proudly sponsored by MBST, the groundbreaking technology revolutionising recovery and rehabilitation.

This special episode of the Rest Eat Move Podcast, recorded at On Target Living's 2026 Live Seminar in East Lansing, features Chris Johnson sharing a holistic approach to health by emphasizing how to listen to your body instead of simply masking symptoms. Through a personal injury story and practical examples, the speaker breaks down how everyday signals—like digestion, pain, and the “BULLS” framework (bowel, urine, lungs, lymph, skin)—can reveal deeper imbalances. The conversation highlights the importance of gut health, nutrition (especially omega-3s), quality sleep, breathing, and movement, while also challenging common beliefs around cholesterol, statins, and chronic conditions like Type 2 Diabetes. Overall, the episode encourages listeners to know their numbers, ask better questions in healthcare, and shift from reactive treatment to proactive prevention.https://ontargetliving.com#HealthPodcast#WellnessJourney#HolisticHealth#Nutrition#SelfImprovement

Send us Fan MailDr. Michael Koren and Rich Jones, in front of a live audience, present a rundown of cholesterol, what it is, and what the numbers you get on a lab test mean. They discuss why cholesterol matters, what labs measure, what affects your numbers, and why the same lab results can mean different treatments for different people. To exemplify this, Dr. Koren reviews the lab results of three real patients, with their permission, and explains why each patient is unique. He explains that a high LDL is not as important for someone with high HDL and low risk factors, but that a slightly lower LDL with a history of possible heart attack needs to be aggressively lowered. Finally, he evaluates a patient with relatively good numbers but several risk factors who may benefit from lifestyle adjustments before medical intervention.Be a part of advancing science by participating in clinical research.Have a question for Dr. Koren?

Welcome to another episode of The AZREIA Show! In this episode, Mike Del Prete, Executive Director of the Arizona Real Estate Investors Association, breaks down one of the biggest mistakes new investors make starting with a fix-and-flip. He explains why flipping is a complex, high-risk strategy that requires mastering deal acquisition, budgeting, construction management, timelines, and sales, all while putting your own and borrowed capital on the line in a market that's far less forgiving. Mike shares essential lessons every beginner needs to hear, including why "you make your money on the buy," and how emotional decisions, over-improving properties, and underestimating true costs can quickly turn a deal into a loss. He also offers practical guidance on how to approach deals the right way, using inspection periods to protect yourself, working with experienced contractors and agents, and accurately calculating ARV and every line-item expense before moving forward. Beyond flipping, Mike highlights smarter, lower-risk ways to get started in real estate, such as wholesaling to build deal-finding skills, leveraging creative finance to acquire rentals, keeping your job while investing, and house hacking. He also emphasizes the power of networking through AZREIA, writing and following up on offers, forming partnerships, and using available resources to grow with confidence and build long-term wealth. 00:52 Flip Hype Reality 02:05 Flipping Is Business 03:34 Money Risk Market 04:48 Avoid Rookie Mistakes 06:18 Profit Math Basics 07:07 Better First Flip 08:12 Inspection and Pros 11:02 Know Your Numbers 13:01 Try Wholesaling 14:35 Creative Finance Paths 16:50 Buy Rentals Now 20:28 House Hacking Option 22:17 Key Takeaways 24:02 Partner and Invest 26:14 Wrap Up and Resources -- Contact Alden of Silver Crest Opportunity Fund at http://silvercrestopportunityfund.com "AZREIA does not endorse specific investments.

If you don't know your numbers, you're losing deals—period. In this episode, we break down the exact stats every real estate agent MUST know before walking into a listing appointment. Because when sellers start asking questions (and they will), your ability to answer confidently can be the difference between winning and losing the listing. We cover the 5 critical numbers top agents always have ready:
 • Total homes sold + volume
 • Local sales in the seller's neighborhood
 • Experience in specific price points
 • Average days on market
 • List-to-sale price ratio This isn't theory—it's what actually shows credibility in competitive listing situations. If you want to win more listings, build trust faster, and position yourself as the obvious choice… it starts with knowing your numbers cold.

Branden Hudson and Chet open by joking about politics, then discuss lessons from gym ownership and “failures” in running a combat sports gym. Branden explains that after parting ways with a Maryland/Delaware group he had more time to evaluate SBY's operations and found major gaps in systems, processes, onboarding, cancellations, finances, and CRM usage, including delegating responsibilities he hadn't learned himself. They stress knowing financial numbers (including member cost/value), stopping unnecessary spending, and getting help from a CFO/accountant to stop “hemorrhaging.” They emphasize creating SOPs for everything, clarifying roles to avoid overlap, and training properly when bringing on staff. They warn against getting consumed by member drama, advise removing cultural “cancers” quickly, and share a story where Branden's coaching delivery drove off a new member, prompting him to take ownership, apologize, and refund fees. They close on entrepreneurship being hard, lonely, and growth-focused, and ask viewers to like, subscribe, share, and review.00:00 Welcome and Subscribe00:34 No Politics Just Gym Talk01:40 Parting Ways and Growth Lessons04:04 Locking In and Fixing Holes07:25 Coaches vs Management Challenges09:50 CRM Chaos and Delegation Mistakes13:14 Know Your Numbers and Costs17:52 Expansion Decisions and Space Limits19:21 Stopping the Bleeding with a CFO20:15 Masterminds and Building SOPs22:24 Overloading New Staff22:50 Role Clarity Board Meeting24:30 Delegation and Duty Swaps25:55 SOPs That Scale28:14 Sales Talk and Listening30:08 Drama and Member Turnover33:57 Culture Cancers Fire Fast35:37 Dont Take It Personal38:55 Owning a Coaching Mistake43:28 Entrepreneur Reality Check44:47 Final Takeaways and Outro

In this episode of the Dental Slang podcast, Wyatt Ferber breaks down the financial framework behind a profitable, efficient dental practice. He explains the key metrics every practice owner must understand including gross profit, associate costs, lab expenses, contribution and net profit. With a clear view of the numbers, dentists can make smarter decisions, reduce waste and protect cash flow while maintaining high clinical standards.

While heart disease may be the number-one killer in the United States, kidney disease is the silent partner we rarely discuss. It often develops quietly, with no pain or clear symptoms until advanced stages. What should we know about kidney health and kidney diseases? We spoke with Kirk Campbell, MD, president of the National Kidney Foundation, about the kidneys’ vital roles – from red blood cell production to supporting heart function – why testing matters, which tests to request, and the importance of knowing your numbers. If you’re at risk, don’t hesitate to advocate for screening at your appointments.

What do your blood pressure and cholesterol numbers actually mean?

In this dynamic family-led episode, the team from On Target Living—twin siblings Matt Johnson and Kristen Brogan, alongside their father Chris Johnson—break down what it truly means to build a strong health foundation in a world overloaded with trends, supplements, AI-driven solutions, and quick fixes. Framed around the metaphor of building a house, they emphasize that real health starts with the basics: rest, real food, and movement. Kristen dives into women's health, hormone replacement therapy, and the constant cycle of diet culture, challenging listeners to simplify and return to nutrient-dense whole foods like omega-3s and chlorophyll-rich greens instead of relying on isolated supplements or extreme diets. Chris then shifts the conversation to “knowing your numbers,” explaining how to decode bloodwork, understand cholesterol beyond fear-based messaging, assess real risk, and recognize the powerful role of stress, sleep, digestion, and inflammation in aging well. Together, the three reinforce one core message: you can't shortcut thriving health. Sustainable vitality comes from intentional habits, listening to your body, and strengthening the foundation before adding “solar panels” like peptides or advanced interventions.#HealthPodcast #WellnessPodcast #HolisticHealth #HealthyLifestyle #Longevity

Episode Overview In this final installment of the Conquer the Operational Chaos series, John Kitchens and Joel Perso break down one of the most overlooked — yet most powerful — CEO disciplines: knowing your numbers. Growth without visibility creates chaos. More agents, more leads, more deals — without proper tracking — only amplifies inefficiencies. In this session, John and Joel unpack how to measure what actually matters, how to assign the right metrics to each role, and how to move from emotional decision-making to data-driven leadership. If you've ever wondered why your P&L says you're profitable but your bank account feels tight… or why your team feels busy but results are inconsistent… this episode will reset how you think about performance. Because if you don't know your numbers, you don't know your business. Key Topics Covered The Final Piece of Operational Clarity Recap of the Conquer the Operational Chaos framework: Week 1: The Operational Hire Week 2: Building Processes Week 3: Core Buyer & Listing Systems Week 4: Measuring What Matters Why growth without tracking leads to internal breakdown How knowing your numbers protects profitability and performance What "Know Your Numbers" Really Means The difference between tracking data and making decisions Why metrics exist to improve leadership — not to create busywork The CEO mindset shift from guessing to measuring The Financial Foundations Every CEO Must Understand Profit & Loss (P&L): Revenue, expenses, and true profitability Balance Sheet: Assets, liabilities, and owner equity Cash Flow: Why profit and cash are not the same Budget vs. Actual: Where silent leaks in your business happen Assigning Metrics to Every Role Every role in your business must have at least one key metric. Why? People want to know what winning looks like Clear agreements eliminate emotional performance conversations Numbers create accountability without friction Metrics vs. Targets (The Critical Distinction) Tracking a number isn't enough. You must define: What is success? What is the agreed target? What happens when we miss? Agreements replace expectations. Expectations create frustration. Agreements create alignment. Leading Indicators vs. Lagging Indicators Lagging indicators: Closings, GCI, volume Leading indicators: Conversations, appointments set, follow-up activity You can't control closings. You can control conversations. John's breakdown: Conversations → Appointments Set → Appointments Met → Agreements Signed → Closings Reverse engineer your goals down to conversations per hour. The Conversations Per Hour Framework This was one of the most tactical moments of the episode. Instead of asking: "How many conversations per day?" Ask: "How many conversations per hour?" Then reverse engineer: How many conversations does it take to set one appointment? How many appointments does it take to sign a client? How many signed clients does it take to close one deal? How many hours per week must be dedicated to outbound activity? When you know this math, success becomes predictable — not accidental. The "Protein, Carbs, and Fats" Principle Borrowed from Blake Sloan: Protein = Conversations Carbs = Appointment Asks Fats = Face-to-Face Meetings You can hit your main metric and still fail if supporting metrics are ignored. One metric matters. But supporting behaviors matter too. Where to Start Don't try to fix everything. Focus on one priority per quarter. If you're spending significant money in one area (Zillow, PPC, mailers, client events), optimize that first. Clarity compounds. Chaos compounds faster. Resources Mentioned Simple Numbers, Straight Talk, Big Profits – Greg Crabtree Financial Intelligence – Karen Berman & Joe Knight Measure What Matters – John Doerr CSU Dashboard / CTE Business Tracking The Growth Centric – Systems Audit with Joel Perso John Kitchens Executive Coaching → JohnKitchens.coach Final Takeaway There are two major breakdowns in most small businesses: They don't know their financial numbers. They don't know how they're allocating their time. If you know your money and you know your time, you control your growth. If you don't — you're guessing. As Joel put it: "If you don't know your numbers, you don't know your business." And as John reinforced: "It's not conversations per day. It's conversations per hour." Measure what matters. Build agreements. Track leading indicators. Execute with clarity. That's how CEOs eliminate chaos.

How many times have you been told that being healthy means being at a certain weight or BMI? The reality is that weight and BMI tell us very little about your health.    A much better way to know how healthy your body is are your labs. Whenever I'm working with a client who has health concerns, the first thing we do is gather some data by looking at what their specific health concerns are, and their bloodwork that would give us clues as to how their health is looking.    Your weight tells us one thing: Your gravitational pull.   Your labs tell us many things: How well your organs are doing their jobs, how well your body is regulating its blood sugar, your risk of certain things like cardiovascular events, if you are sick with an infection, if you have systemic inflammation, whether or not you have certain diseases, and so much more.    In this episode, I'm walking you through the labs that I look at and recommend most frequently as a dietitian. These are the labs that tell us what to focus on when it comes to gentle nutrition strategies, and it's a way of listening to what your body is communicating (which is absolutely part of intuitive eating).    *DISCLAIMER: I'm obviously not a doctor, and you should ask your doctor about all of this and work with them to understand what lab tests are most appropriate for you and your unique health needs. Episode Highlights ✨ The most important labs to pay attention to for your health and nutrition ✨ Why these labs matter more than the number on the scale ever will for your health ✨ The surprising set of labs that you do NOT need to have checked, even if you think you might be in perimenopause   Today's Wellness Woo is sauerkraut to cure depression.   Resources Mentioned  - Grab my free Perimenopause Labs Cheat Sheet - DM me for info about my annual membership, Non-Dieter's Club   Read the full episode show notes here.   Resources for Your Intuitive Eating Journey  Join my weekly newsletter email list for tips, resources, book recommendations and more!  Work with Katy Explore the self-paced mini-course Stepping Off The Dieting Rollercoaster Connect with Katy Harvey Website: KatyHarvey.net Instagram: @katyharvey.rd Facebook: KatyHarveyRD  Subscribe and Review Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts   I would be thrilled if you could rate and review my podcast!

Know Your Numbers And The FREEDOM Door Opens In this episode of Join Up Dots, we hear from incredible listeners who've taken control of their lives after coaching with David Ralph and years of listening to the show. Both discovered the power of knowing their financial baseline — the minimum income they needed to survive — and used that clarity to build freedom. One now travels the world funded by side hustles and rental income, while the other has quit their job and is steadily expanding multiple small income streams at home. Their stories prove that true independence begins with understanding “enough.” #JoinUpDots #FinancialFreedom #SideHustleSuccess #EscapeThe9to5 Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast and leave a review.
