What does it look like to lead with purpose and performance — to stay true to your values while building something that lasts? I so enjoyed talking with fellow @tuckschool alum @Jim_Weber, longtime CEO of @BrooksRunning, for a conversation about leadership, grit, and building a brand rooted in conviction. Jim took the helm at Brooks when the company was on the verge of bankruptcy — and through a relentless focus on purpose, customer obsession, and culture, he helped lead it to become a billion-dollar brand. He did all of this while navigating a personal cancer diagnosis — a chapter that deepened his clarity, his courage, and his belief in the kind of leadership that endures. We also talk about what it's like to work alongside Warren Buffett with the astonishing story of Brooks and @BerkshireHathawayInc, and the mindset required to lead through uncertainty without losing sight of what matters most. If you're a leader looking for clarity, or someone in a season of challenge, this conversation is one you won't want to miss. #running LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jim-weber-3b996b8 Website: http://www.jimweber.org/Keppler: https://www.kepplerspeakers.com/speakers/jim-weber Book: tinyurl.com/runpurpose

Just because there's money in the bank doesn't mean your business is truly profitable. In this episode, Danielle lays out the most common (and sneaky) financial mistakes she sees entrepreneurs and small business owners making without even realizing they're doing it. From undercharging to over-relying on your gut, Danielle is not here to shame you—she's here to show you how to avoid them so you have the tools you need to build your business with confidence, clarity, and a financial plan that supports your vision.  Key Takeaways:  Your Bank Balance is Not the Full Picture: Why real profitability lives beyond what's in your checking account. Profit is not the same as cash flow, and both matter in different ways.  You Don't Have to Do It All Yourself: You're not a bookkeeper—and you don't need to be! Delegating your money tasks is one of the most empowering moves you can make. Outsourcing your books (or any task that's not your expertise) isn't giving up control, it's giving yourself the ability to make smarter business decisions.  Knowing Your Numbers Puts You In Control: Reviewing your financial statements monthly isn't just “nice”, it's necessary. It keeps you from guessing and it's how you grow with intention.  Pricing for Profit, Not Panic: Undercharging leads to burnout. You deserve to get paid what your work is worth—and then some. Create a Plan for the Slow Seasons: Feast-or-famine is not a strategy. Use data to build stability and breathe easier year-round. Think In Terms of the Long-Game: Even if you love your work now, it's never too early to plan for the future. Building a business that runs without you means real freedom.

Key figures like Brian Brooks and Howard Lutnick—linked to major stablecoins and now in influential government roles—highlight what Aaron describes as a Silicon Valley and “PayPal mafia” takeover of policy. The proposed Genius Act and Stable Act would require stablecoins to be fully backed by U.S. Treasuries, effectively forcing users to fund government debt and surveillance systems. With projections of $120 trillion in stablecoin transactions by 2030, Aaron calls this “turbo cancer for CBDC adoption.” The sheer scale of these numbers underscores the urgency he sees in resisting the push toward centralized digital money. The conversation then shifts to solutions within the privacy coin space, emphasizing unity against technocratic control. Aaron highlights FUSD (Freedom Dollar), a private algorithmic stablecoin built on Zano, which offers an alternative by being over-collateralized with Zano rather than tied to government-backed assets. He discusses Zano's technical advantages, including its deflationary model, while defending its pre-mine as a necessary step for development funding. Both hosts stress the importance of collaboration across privacy projects like Monero, Tari, and Zano to resist systemic control. They also preview Porkfest, where they'll host a privacy tent and welcome Ross Ulbricht and his mother Lynn, who is launching a new advocacy initiative.

Stigall thinks its key to have a full understanding of the vision Trump is attempting to achieve. Not just this month, this year, or even four years from now. Trump is rebuilding this country in the image of its great industrialist past. Democrats, meanwhile simply cannot pull out of their political "death spiral" and the New York Times lays out just how bad their polices truly are after 2024's bruising. Much is being debated about the big, beautiful bill as you know but can the Senate make it better? Stigall is joined by chief economist Steve Moore and one of the Republican final hawks who passed the House version last week Congressman Scott Perry. Plus, the movies had a big weekend, a Duck Dynasty star goes home, and the MAHA movement makes the rounds on the Sunday shows. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShow-Help protect your wealth with real, physical gold and silver.

Richard Walsh's journey from the military to entrepreneurship reveals a powerful philosophy rooted in resilience, strategy, and intentional leadership. After experiencing both remarkable success and total financial collapse, Walsh rebuilt his life and business through focus, discipline, and system-driven thinking. He now helps business owners reclaim their time and profits by teaching them how to concentrate on their most valuable tasks—the "Owner's 5%"—while building teams and systems to handle the rest. His method emphasizes working smarter, not harder, and designing businesses that serve both professional and personal goals. Walsh also stresses the importance of planning with the end in mind. By starting every business with a clear exit strategy, owners can make better hiring decisions, evaluate opportunities more effectively, and align their actions with long-term outcomes. His approach is especially effective for trades and service-based industries, where improved communication and process automation—often using underutilized tools like AI—can lead to significant financial and operational transformation. His client case studies show consistent results: higher revenues, fewer hours worked, and dramatically improved quality of life. If you're a business owner feeling overwhelmed or stuck, Richard Walsh is offering a complimentary one-on-one coaching call to help you tackle your biggest business challenge right now. This is a chance to get personalized insight from someone who's helped countless entrepreneurs find clarity, regain control, and scale smarter. Don't miss the opportunity to take the first step toward a more profitable and balanced business. We're happy you're here! Like the pod? Visit our website! Start your trial on Simplified.

When it comes to making decisions, balancing speed and strategy is crucial. The way we make informed choices directly reflects our risk tolerance and self-confidence.   Sometimes, the priority isn't just staying ahead of the curve; it's about ensuring the company's survival. Understanding your current position in the business journey is key to setting goals and focusing on the right priorities that can drive meaningful change. A hint: it is about slowing down, actually pausing, to speed up.    In this episode of the BOLD Business Podcast UNCHARTED, Jess Dewell sits down with Amanda Cromar, the Camanda in Chief at COMtuity. They discuss Amanda's journey of taking time to reflect and how to inspire others to embrace change in a disrupted market.    Listen in to discover the importance of looking at long-term horizons for strategic growth, the advantages of making thoughtful decisions, and the signals that indicate when a quick choice might be appropriate.   —-----------------   If you want to identify business bottlenecks, the necessary skills, the initial actions to take, the expected milestones, and the priorities for achieving growth, try the “Growth Framework Reset” approach. This will help you to keep learning and growing while working strategically on your business. -------------------- You can get in touch with Jess Dewell on Twitter,  LinkedIn or Red Direction website.
