Your Next Best Step: Helping Small Business owners build a plan for a brighter future
It was 2020. The world had just flipped upside down, and Andrea Mancuso's older brother was in the ICU with COVID. Andrea had a master's in therapeutic intervention. Fourteen years as a school psychologist in the New York City public schools. A whole career built on clinical skills and helping people through hard things. And in those few days, she lost access to every bit of it. She was just afraid, wondering what was going to happen. After three days, she sat up and told herself: you're either going to navigate this pandemic like this — which is no good for you or anybody else — or you're going to do something different. That was the day Intentional Healing and Wellness was born. In this episode of Amuse Bouche Leadership Bites, Theresa sits down with Andrea — licensed mental health counselor, leadership coach, and the person who's helped Theresa through plenty of her own challenges — to talk about the part of leadership nobody hands you a handbook for. They get into why entrepreneurship is personal development on steroids, why leading other people is the easy part and leading yourself is the work, and Andrea's premise that time does not heal all wounds — intention does. She shares the 82-year-old client who hired her at 80 because he was tired of feeling like he wasn't good enough. Andrea breaks down emotional intelligence as the EQ advantage — the leading predictor of leadership success that almost nobody can actually name the skills of — and makes the case for radical responsibility: stop waiting for your employer to develop you and invest in yourself, because success leaves clues. And there's the car. Are you in the driver's seat with the windows down and your music on — or in the back seat, waiting to see who gets in, how fast they drive, and whether they even show up? Here's the real question this one leaves you with: what's the thing that already popped into your mind — the one that needs your attention? Because the moment you give it attention, you set yourself free. Key Takeaways: • Leadership isn't really about your relationship with other people — entrepreneurship taught Andrea it's about how you lead yourself. • It's harder NOT to do the inner work. Convincing yourself it's too hard to look keeps you stuck at a ceiling you don't belong at. • Time does not heal all wounds — intention does. The wound that's already on your mind is the one asking for attention. • Emotional intelligence is the leading predictor of leadership success, yet it's made up of 15 skills almost no one can name. That gap is the EQ advantage. • Flexibility is one of those EQ skills — and we're rarely the best judge of our own. We see ourselves one way; the people around us see something else. • Radical responsibility: don't outsource your growth to your employer's training budget. Invest in yourself — coaching, therapy, even just the book — because success leaves clues. • Hard skills get you hired; human skills make you a leader. Andrea saw it as a school psychologist — high EQ predicted who'd be fine far better than IQ ever did. • You're not just the writer of your story — you're the director, the producer, and the lead. Living as if life happens to you is riding in the back seat. • When you promote someone, clarity and training aren't optional. You can't hand someone a 'handbook of excellence' and expect them to know how to lead.

Have you ever come home from a networking event with a stack of business cards, every intention of following up, and then... life happened, and the follow-up didn't? I get it. In this episode of Doing Business Like a Woman, I'm talking about one of the biggest opportunities I see women entrepreneurs miss: follow-up. Many business owners spend time and money networking, speaking, creating content, and meeting new people. But if you're not intentionally nurturing those relationships afterward, you're leaving money, relationships, and impact on the table. The good news is that follow-up doesn't have to be complicated. It doesn't require endless automation, complicated funnels, or spending all day in your inbox. It simply requires a plan. In this episode, you'll learn: The 60% of potential clients most entrepreneurs forget about Three simple ways to create a follow-up process that actually works How to follow up without feeling pushy or salesy How consistent follow-up creates more predictable revenue and cash flow If you've been working hard to grow your business but feel like you're constantly starting over with new leads, this episode will help you create a simpler, more sustainable way to attract clients and grow your revenue.

You work hard to make good decisions.You gather the data. Review the strategy. Listen to the experts.And yet sometimes something still feels off.The numbers say yes.The process says yes.The presentation is flawless.But your gut says no.That's because the leadership skill that matters most in an AI-powered world isn't another framework, productivity system, or communication technique.It's taste.Not aesthetic taste.Discernment.The ability to recognize what is genuinely excellent versus what is merely competent.The ability to see what will compound over time versus what simply looks good today.And in a world where AI can generate competent everything, that distinction may become the most valuable leadership asset you possess.In this episode, Fernanda explores why taste is actually a neurological capacity, how it's built through genuine encounters with excellence, and why leaders who develop discernment will hold an advantage that no technology can replicate. If you've ever found yourself: Feeling that something is wrong before you can explain why Struggling to separate quality from noise Wondering what human advantage remains in the AI era Craving deeper thinking in a culture obsessed with speed Making decisions that require judgment beyond data This episode will change how you think about leadership development.What You'll Learn Why taste is not preference, talent, or opinion The leadership lesson Steve Jobs understood better than most executives Why AI makes discernment more valuable, not less How the brain develops taste through long-range neural connectivity The surprising connection between novels, music, art, and executive judgment Why expertise and taste are not the same thing The neuroscience behind aesthetic judgment and leadership discernment How passive consumption weakens your ability to recognize excellence A practical way to begin building taste immediately Why judgment, not skills, may become the defining leadership advantage of the next decadeYour Next Steps:Watch the Free MasterclassIf success still feels heavier than it should… this masterclass will help you understand why.Watch The Rewired Method™ in action How we help women executives end burnout and build sustainable success in less than 90 days...I recorded a step-by-step training for you here: The Sustainable Success Plan for Executive Women LeadersExplore The Rewired Woman™https://therewiredwoman.com/Follow on InstagramConnect on LinkedInCorporate Partnerships & Leadership Programshttps://rewiredglobal.com/corporates/

Your most expensive asset isn't your top client or your best hire. It's the quality of thinking you bring to every decision. And most leaders are giving that away for free before 9am.In this episode, you'll learn the three shifts that happen when leaders protect their highest-quality thinking time: decisions made from your sharpest position instead of your most depleted one, a team that builds real judgment because you stopped being constantly available, and energy that compounds instead of degrades. Thinking time isn't a luxury. It's an operating asset!Topics discussed:What three uninterrupted hours would change in your business (00:00)The strategy gap is really a think gap (00:30)A Costa Rica phone call you weren't expecting (02:21)Why protected thinking time is an operating decision, not a personal indulgence (05:15)Michael Poro's three words: simple gets done (05:40)Shift #1: decisions made from your sharpest position, not your most depleted one (06:51)Shift #2: your team gets stronger because you stop being always available (09:12)Shift #3: your energy compounds instead of depletes (11:00)The 90-day question worth sitting with (15:30)Turn challenges into measurable results with the FREE Business Bourbon & Cigars Leadership Retreat Workbook! http://meplusultra.com/workbookSubscribe so you don't miss any episodes:Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3SN2fHnSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/74bfJL9J2fjevQEvi17ekUYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MePlusUltraNetwork/Connect with Me Plus Ultra:https://www.instagram.com/me_plus_ultra/https://www.facebook.com/MePlusUltra/https://www.facebook.com/groups/1011061052968028/https://x.com/Me_Plus_Ultra/Connect with Scott Joseph:https://www.linkedin.com/in/ScottJosephhttps://www.instagram.com/scotttjoseph/https://www.facebook.com/ScottTJoseph/https://x.com/ScottTJoseph1This episode was produced by Podcast Boutique https://www.podcastboutique.com

Send us Fan MailMost business owners believe growth comes from better marketing, stronger sales, or more sophisticated systems. But what if the real growth constraint is leadership? Leadership skills for business owners are rarely discussed with the same urgency as strategy and revenue, yet they often determine whether a company can successfully grow beyond the founder.As businesses expand, new challenges emerge. More clients, more opportunities, and more responsibilities place increasing demands on the person leading the organization. The skills required to start a business are not always the same skills required to scale one. And this is where many founders discover an important truth: sustainable growth requires leadership growth.In this inaugural episode of The People Side of Business, we explore the shift from founder to CEO and why leadership becomes one of the most important investments a business owner can make. From developing stronger business communication skills to creating trust, accountability, and clarity, leadership influences every aspect of performance. The way you lead affects your team, your culture, your decision-making, and ultimately your results.You'll discover why effective team management strategies are critical to long-term success, how to recognize when leadership has become a bottleneck, and why learning how to manage employees and team members effectively creates capacity for growth. We also discuss the importance of building company culture intentionally and the role of building leadership team capability as your business evolves.One of the most powerful ideas explored is that people are not simply part of your business growth strategy—they are the strategy. Every client experience, innovation, and operational success is driven by people. That is why leadership skills for female business owners and business leadership for women deserve greater attention, support, and conversation.If you've ever felt caught between working in your business and leading your business, this conversation will challenge you to think differently about growth.

How does a company come back from an existential crisis and become one of the strongest brands in the world again? In this episode of the LEITWOLF® Podcast, Stefan talks about one of the most impressive turnarounds in business history: the LEGO case. A brand many of us have known since childhood was on the brink of collapse in the early 2000s. Too many products, too much complexity, rising costs, and a lost focus on what customers truly wanted pushed LEGO into a serious crisis. Stefan shares the leadership lessons behind this comeback: why more initiatives do not automatically lead to more success, why reducing costs and driving growth can happen at the same time, and why great leadership does not mean having all the answers yourself. For LEGO, the key was a return to its core brand, radical simplification, and leadership that started listening again: to customers, employees, and retail partners. An episode about crisis, focus, and clarity – and about why great comebacks rarely begin with more complexity, but with consistent leadership. ––– Do you like the LEITWOLF® Leadership podcast?

In this episode of the 7 Minute Leadership Podcast, Paul breaks down one of the most underrated leadership skills — the ability to see clearly before you act. Experienced leaders aren't reacting to surface-level information. They're reading the energy in the room, identifying where real influence lives on their team, spotting the gap between what people say and what's actually true, recognizing where pressure is wearing their people down, and uncovering potential in the people others have overlooked. Paul explains that these aren't innate gifts — they're learnable skills built through intentional observation and genuine curiosity about the people you lead. Whether you're a new leader or a seasoned executive, this episode will challenge you to slow down, look deeper, and start seeing what you've been walking past.Host: Paul FalavolitoConnect with me on your favorite platform: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, Substack, BlueSky, Threads, LinkTree, YouTubeView my website for free leadership resources and exclusive merchandise: www.paulfalavolito.comBooks by Paul FalavolitoThe 7 Minute Leadership® Handbook: bit.ly/48J8zFGThe Leadership Academy: https://bit.ly/4lnT1PfThe 7 Minute Leadership® Survival Guide: https://bit.ly/4ij0g8yThe Leader's Book of Secrets: http://bit.ly/4oeGzCI
In this episode of the 7 Minute Leadership Podcast, Paul explores why the dashboards leaders rely on every day can give a dangerously incomplete picture of organizational health. Using a real-world example of gamed metrics, the episode unpacks how measuring what's easy — rather than what's meaningful — can lead leaders to make confident decisions based on a distorted reality. Paul explains the cultural dynamics that cause teams to optimize for the numbers leadership watches rather than the outcomes that actually matter, and why a fear-based environment makes dashboard data even less reliable. The episode closes with three practical actions listeners can take immediately to close the gap between what their data says and what's really happening on the ground. If you're a leader who wants to make better decisions with better information, this episode is essential listening.Host: Paul FalavolitoConnect with me on your favorite platform: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, Substack, BlueSky, Threads, LinkTree, YouTubeView my website for free leadership resources and exclusive merchandise: www.paulfalavolito.comBooks by Paul FalavolitoThe 7 Minute Leadership® Handbook: bit.ly/48J8zFGThe Leadership Academy: https://bit.ly/4lnT1PfThe 7 Minute Leadership® Survival Guide: https://bit.ly/4ij0g8yThe Leader's Book of Secrets: http://bit.ly/4oeGzCI
In this episode of the 7 Minute Leadership Podcast, Paul explores the concept of confidence as something that must be intentionally built long before a crisis arrives — not discovered in the middle of one. Using a relatable two-leader scenario, the episode breaks down why some leaders stay steady under pressure while others fall apart, and reveals that the difference isn't talent or experience — it's preparation. Paul outlines three practical, no-fluff strategies for building genuine leadership confidence: getting crystal clear on your personal values, developing the habit of decisive decision-making in everyday situations, and cultivating trusted relationships before you desperately need them. This episode is ideal for leaders at every level who want to show up with calm, grounded authority when it matters most.Host: Paul FalavolitoConnect with me on your favorite platform: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, Substack, BlueSky, Threads, LinkTree, YouTubeView my website for free leadership resources and exclusive merchandise: www.paulfalavolito.comBooks by Paul FalavolitoThe 7 Minute Leadership® Handbook: bit.ly/48J8zFGThe Leadership Academy: https://bit.ly/4lnT1PfThe 7 Minute Leadership® Survival Guide: https://bit.ly/4ij0g8yThe Leader's Book of Secrets: http://bit.ly/4oeGzCI

In this episode of the 7 Minute Leadership Podcast, Paul explores one of the most overlooked challenges in leadership — the fact that stress fundamentally changes how leaders think and make decisions. Under pressure, the brain shifts into survival mode, narrowing focus and pushing leaders toward reactive, familiar choices rather than thoughtful strategy. Paul breaks down what "strategy under stress" actually looks like in practice, including common patterns like choosing the path of least resistance, doubling down on outdated approaches, or avoiding decisions altogether. He then offers three practical habits to protect strategic thinking under pressure: building a pause ritual before major decisions, keeping core strategic anchors visible and accessible, and maintaining a small circle of honest voices who provide perspective when stress isolates us. The episode closes with a powerful reminder that teams watch their leaders most closely during hard times — and that intentional, thoughtful leadership under pressure is what builds lasting trust.Host: Paul FalavolitoConnect with me on your favorite platform: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, Substack, BlueSky, Threads, LinkTree, YouTubeView my website for free leadership resources and exclusive merchandise: www.paulfalavolito.comBooks by Paul FalavolitoThe 7 Minute Leadership® Handbook: bit.ly/48J8zFGThe Leadership Academy: https://bit.ly/4lnT1PfThe 7 Minute Leadership® Survival Guide: https://bit.ly/4ij0g8yThe Leader's Book of Secrets: http://bit.ly/4oeGzCI

In this episode of the 7 Minute Leadership Podcast, Paul explores what truly separates high-performing teams from those stuck in a cycle of hesitation. The episode unpacks why "teams that wait" aren't held back by a lack of talent or effort, but by leadership cultures that have unintentionally rewarded passivity.

Wie schafft es ein Unternehmen, aus einer existenziellen Krise wieder zu einer der stärksten Marken der Welt zu werden? In dieser Folge des LEITWOLF® Podcasts spricht Stefan über einen der beeindruckendsten Turnarounds der Wirtschaftsgeschichte: den LEGO-Case. Eine Marke, die viele seit der Kindheit kennen, stand Anfang der 2000er kurz vor dem Zusammenbruch. Zu viele Produkte, zu hohe Komplexität, steigende Kosten und ein verlorener Fokus auf das, was Kund:innen wirklich wollten, brachten LEGO an den Rand der Krise. Stefan zeigt, welche Führungslektionen in diesem Comeback stecken: Warum mehr Initiativen nicht automatisch mehr Erfolg bedeuten, weshalb Kosten senken und Wachstum steigern gleichzeitig möglich sein können und warum gute Führung nicht darin besteht, alle Antworten selbst zu haben. Entscheidend war bei LEGO die Rückkehr zum Markenkern, radikale Vereinfachung und eine Führung, die wieder genau hinhörte: bei Kund:innen, Mitarbeitenden und Handelspartnern. Eine Folge über Krise, Fokus und Klarheit – und darüber, warum große Comebacks selten mit mehr Komplexität beginnen, sondern mit konsequenter Führung. ––– Nimm gerne an dieser anonymen Umfrage teil, damit wir diesen Podcast für Dich optimieren können: https://forms.gle/WTqCeutVXV2PsjBH9 Gefällt Dir dieser LEITWOLF® Leadership Podcast?

In this episode of the 7 Minute Leadership Podcast, Paul explores one of the most powerful — and often overlooked — truths in leadership: that you, as a leader, are the decision. Long before any formal choice is made, your behavior, energy, and presence are already communicating to your team what's safe, what's valued, and what kind of culture they're operating in. Paul breaks down how leaders unknowingly create environments where honesty feels risky, and why team silence or disengagement is often a reflection of the leader rather than the team. The episode challenges listeners to close the gap between who they think they are and who their team actually experiences — not through big programs or announcements, but through small, intentional daily choices. If you want a high-trust, high-performance culture, it starts with recognizing that leadership is less about what you decide and more about who you are when no one thinks anyone's watching.Host: Paul FalavolitoConnect with me on your favorite platform: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, Substack, BlueSky, Threads, LinkTree, YouTubeView my website for free leadership resources and exclusive merchandise: www.paulfalavolito.comBooks by Paul FalavolitoThe 7 Minute Leadership® Handbook: bit.ly/48J8zFGThe Leadership Academy: https://bit.ly/4lnT1PfThe 7 Minute Leadership® Survival Guide: https://bit.ly/4ij0g8yThe Leader's Book of Secrets: http://bit.ly/4oeGzCI

In this episode, Pastor Q discusses why so many leaders feel overwhelmed by urgency and constant demands. He explains the difference between what is truly urgent and what simply feels urgent, emphasizing the importance of setting priorities before the day begins. Leaders who lack clarity often live in reaction mode, allowing interruptions to control their focus and energy. Pastor Q encourages leaders to replace panic with clarity by identifying their top priorities and focusing on the next right thing. While you can't control everything that comes at you, you can control what gets your attention. Effective leadership isn't about doing everything—it's about focusing on what matters most.
What it takes to lead as a communicator and communicate as a leader.Leadership isn't just about making decisions — it's about how you communicate them. As Matt Abrahams puts it, “Communication is operationalized leadership.”At a recent Me2We event, in connection with Stanford GSB's Executive Education LEAD program, Abrahams held a live discussion with four of the podcast's most popular guests: Celine Teoh, facilitator of the GSB's famous Interpersonal Dynamics course; Huggy Rao, organizational behavior professor and co-author of The Friction Project; legendary Stanford basketball coach Tara VanDerveer; and Dave Dodson, lecturer and author of The Manager's Handbook.In this special live episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, the panel shares frameworks and lessons for leading and communicating more effectively. From Teoh's five A's for inviting dissent to Rao's warning against “jargon monoxide,” from VanDerveer's relationship-first approach to Dodson's case for leading like a teacher, this conversation explores what it takes to communicate as a leader — and lead as a communicator.Episode Reference Links:Celine TeohTara VanDerveerHuggy RaoHuggy's Book: The Friction ProjectDavid DodsonDavid's Book: The Manager's HandbookEp.194 Live Lessons in Levity and Leadership: Me2We 2025 Part 1 Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedIn Chapters:(00:00) - Introduction (04:18) - Encouraging Dissent (06:40) - The Addition Bias (09:57) - Coaching Through Encouragement (12:12) - Leadership in the AI Era (16:24) - Teaching vs. Managing (17:46) - Making People Feel Appreciated (19:06) - Slowing Down Decisions (21:24) - Listening More (24:24) - Avoiding Jargon (26:31) - Giving Better Feedback (28:53) - Preparing for Communication (29:44) - Using Communication Frameworks (31:15) - Skills for Future Leaders (37:47) - Conclusion
