Podcasts about Moxie

We did something nuts: we got 50+ founders to reveal their net worth, portfolios, income, expenses. Its free and right here: https://joinhampton.com/mw-wrWhy this podcast exists:Hampton is a community for founders. Members do an ave of $20m/year in revenue.Tons of the convos within the community are about money: how to invest, how to spend, how much to pay yourself...all this stuff you can't Google.We thought "Let's just make these convos public". And thus, this podcast Moneywise came to be.We publish weekly. Click the subscribe button and the goodness will be delivered. Also...we've done 100+ episodes. If you want the aggregate info of all the numbers, meaning the net worth, spending, income of 50+ founders ranging from $10m to $1 billion: https://joinhampton.com/mw-wrOk, so let's talk David Royce, today's guest:He built the same pest control company four times — $13M, $30M, $135M, $1.5B — and says the first exit was the most life-changing.David Royce sold four pest control companies — Moxie, Eco First, Altera, and Aptiv — each bigger than the last, culminating in a $1.5B sale of Aptiv when it was doing $508M in annual revenue. He kept 100% equity through the first three, gave 25% of the last one to his employees, and personally walked away with hundreds of millions across the run. He's now on an indefinite sabbatical, investing through Iconic (the firm that manages Zuckerberg's and Dorsey's money), with half his net worth in S&P 500 and the rest in private equity, direct deals, and alternatives — including multiple Anthropic investments.This episode covers the exact mechanics of each asset-sale exit, why David kept restarting instead of holding, his full portfolio framework (including the 4-year cash buffer strategy), the "the answer is just a little more" moment that hit every entrepreneur in the room, and the story of flying his dying father on a private jet from a New Orleans hospital to Cedars-Sinai at 2am — made possible only by one call to a CEO WhatsApp chain.Timestamps:00:01:39 — David's full intro: four companies, four exits, what actually happened with the money01:55 — First company (Moxie): nearly went bankrupt the first year, how a cash flow crisis taught him "cash was king"03:14 — The asset-sale strategy: selling customers and technicians to Terminix while keeping the sales operation04:57 — "Pretty close" — David confirms Forbes' reported $13M and $30M exit figures05:37 — Why he gave 25% of Aptiv to employees and stepped back as chairman06:23 — Aptiv was doing $508M in revenue; Daniel and David settle on $1.5B as the sale range07:13 — What he actually took home: cap gains, California taxes, "hundreds of millions"08:37 — Net worth today: "do the math backwards and figure it out"09:09 — Portfolio breakdown: 4-year cash buffer in fixed income, S&P 500 with tax-loss harvesting, alternatives11:31 — "I just invested in Anthropic — three different times in the last year and a half" via Iconic14:35 — "The one that was life-changing was the first one" — $13M from nothing hits differently than $1.5B17:46 — Why pest control?

[53] How to master full-face aesthetics using fewer syringes, regenerative medicine, and dynamic injection techniques.Welcome to Fill Me In: An Aesthetics Podcast!In this episode of Fill Me In, Jon and Nicole sit down with aesthetic powerhouse Erika Barry, NP-C, MSN (InjectorBunny), ahead of her masterclass lecture at Modern Beauty Con, "The Blueprint of the Face." If you are a medical injector looking to scale your practice, build your patient book, or master advanced injection techniques, this deep dive is for you.Erika breaks down her exact clinical strategies for addressing "Ozempic Face" by prioritizing foundation over volume. Learn how she explains bio-stimulators to patients to manage expectations ("undersell, over-deliver") and how she integrates structural bio-stimulation with dynamic RHA fillers using her signature superficial-to-deep "sandwich technique."We also tackle the massive industry shifts of 2026, including the widespread issue of filler blindness, how to effectively use high-dose neuromodulators like Daxxify with flat-rate full-face pricing, and the exact mindset required to achieve an outlier level of success in the competitive medical aesthetics landscape.

In this episode, we sit down with Karolina Sliwinska — bartender, mixologist, bar program consultant, and founder of Elite Bartender — to talk about what it really takes to build a career in hospitality. From Toronto nightclubs to luxury Marriott and Hyatt properties across Canada, Karolina's path is a masterclass in versatility and knowing your craft inside and out. **From Poland to the KW bar scene** — Karolina moved to Canada at 18 and worked her way from wedding catering in Guelph to some of Toronto's most iconic venues, including the Government Nightclub. **Why nightclubs and chain restaurants matter** — Karolina makes a strong case that high-volume environments like Jack Astor's, Moxie's, and nightclubs teach speed, spill control, and accountability that craft-focused bars often skip entirely. **Hotel bartending and slowing down** — She breaks down how Marriott and Hyatt properties reward personality and genuine connection over volume — and what bartenders should know about unionized vs. non-unionized hotel gigs before signing on. **Spirit-free cocktails are here to stay** — Karolina has priced mocktails at $10–12 across menus she's designed for Hyatt, Marriott, the Gaslight District in Cambridge, and Mediterraneo in Waterloo — and they sell just as well as the boozy ones. **The business side of bartending** — Understanding cost, margins, and how to get your front-of-house staff actually selling the menu is what separates a good mixologist from a truly elite one. **Elite Bartender** — Karolina's KW-based brand offers bar program design, staff training, menu consulting, and private event bartending from house parties to 200-person weddings.

The work of history's greatest composers resonates through the centuries, inspiring us with passionate expressions of music at its finest. And quite often, those symphonic masterpieces informed the work of great visual artists too. Numerous examples include Bach and Rubens, Mozart and Reynolds, Beethoven and Constable. But what inspired these maestros when they sat down to create these great works? For many, their work expressed the heart and voice of God, who they believed was the ultimate Creator. Join Horizon for MAESTROS, revealing God's beauty through music and art.

Cindy Esliger unpacks the hidden cost of self-doubt and how hesitation quietly sabotages career growth. In competitive workplaces, many women spend too much time overthinking conversations and waiting to feel ready. We hold back instead of speaking up. Cindy explains that confidence is not a personality trait that a few of us luck into; it's a skill that can be developed. Action, resilience, and self-trust are the keys to growing confidence, and she highlights how, without them, holding back can damage our visibility, momentum, and professional reputation over time. Many of us believe confidence means being the loudest person in the room, but Cindy challenges that idea. Real confidence is about genuine presence. Cindy outlines five common pitfalls that keep brilliant women stuck: 1. Confusing confidence with extroversion, 2. Perfectionism, 3. People pleasing, 4. Risk aversion, and 5. The readiness illusion. These patterns often feel responsible or safe, but they slowly reinforce self-doubt and make it harder to step into leadership opportunities. Cindy states that the real consequences of constantly playing small include burnout and resentment, stalled career growth, and missed opportunities. She shares five red flags to watch for in our own behavior: 1. Using diminishing phrases to preface ideas, 2. Waiting to be called to speak, 3. Declining opportunities because we don't meet all criteria, 4. Attributing our success to luck instead of competence, and 5. Avoiding opportunities to share our expertise. Cindy offers practical strategies for growing confidence from within, like keeping promises to ourselves, practicing self-compassion, and creating reset rituals, among others. The goal is not to become someone else, but to stop letting outdated thought patterns dictate how we show up at work.

In this episode, Heather Pettey, CPC, and Dr. Carol Lynn dive into the "beauty treatments" of midlife—from the glamorous style of Mad Men to the practical (and often unspoken) medical solutions for bladder health. Whether you're curious about the "tampon trick" for exercise-induced leaking, wondering about the recovery time for a bladder sling, or just looking for a bargain on a new layered necklace set, this episode covers it all. Heather and Carol Lynn remind us that thriving in midlife means taking care of ourselves from the inside out—and maybe doing it in a very cute wide-leg jogger set.  In This Episode, We Discuss: Pop Culture Pursuits: Why Dr. Carol Lynn is officially obsessed with Mad Men and the timeless "Betty Draper" aesthetic. Springtime Beauty Checklists: The duo's personal lists for the season, including laser hair removal, Botox timing, and the "au naturel" nail trend. The "Leaky Bladder" Conversation: Dr. Carol Lynn breaks down the difference between urge incontinence and stress incontinence. Medical Solutions for Midlife: * ThermiVa: An in-office, non-surgical treatment for vaginal dryness and bladder control. The Urethral Sling: What the "bladder tack" surgery actually is and what to expect during recovery. The Tampon Trick: A simple hack for women who experience leaking specifically during exercise. Midlife Fashion & Bargains: Heather shares her favorite "retro" wide-leg jogger set and Carol Lynn reveals a $15 layered necklace find. Featured Resources & Links: Skincare Favorites: Obagi Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 50. Home Tech: Michael Todd Dermaplaning Tool. Heather's Look: Retro wide-leg jogger set.

This week Rachel and Lynne are responding to a question from listener Stephanie about how to make time to work on your freelance business. It's a bit of a choose-your-own adventure because we have such different work styles and systems. Rachel uses a mix of a bespoke paper diary (Creator's Friend), Outlook, Google Keep, batching, and Friday "work on the business" time, plus automations in Moxie (forms, pipelines, calendar booking windows, templated replies, and auto-created Google Drive folders). Lynne has a paper-free setup using Trello, an electronic calendar, "salami tactics" (small daily actions), Marketing Monday, Mail scheduling/follow-ups/reminders, and industry events for networking. We also discuss invoicing habits, accounting software, setting aside GST/tax/super, and recommend choosing regular business time, one in-person event monthly, and automating two tasks per month.  Want to suggest a topic for a future episode?

In this episode, Heather and Dr. Carol Lynn catch up after a brief hiatus to discuss what they've been watching during their downtime. From the high-society drama of The Madison to the cigarette-smoke-filled rooms of 1960s Mad Men, the BFFs dive deep into the nostalgia of the past and the "glitz and glam" they're craving today. They also swap "boy mom" stories about the unique challenges of middle school hygiene and share a few book-to-movie recommendations. In This Episode, We Discuss: Current TV Obsessions: * The Madison: Heather and Carol Lynn discuss the beautiful setting and the "ageless" Michelle Pfeiffer. Mad Men: Deep dive into the 1960s—the furniture, the fashion, and the shocking (by today's standards) cultural norms like littering and drinking at the office. The Love Story: The uncanny resemblance of the actor playing JFK Jr. and the fascination with Martha's Vineyard real estate prices from 1979. A Man on the Inside: Dr. Carol Lynn's recommendation featuring Ted Danson as a spy in a retirement community. The Nostalgia Factor: Why watching shows set in the 60s and 70s feels like a trip back to childhood, and Heather's attempt to introduce her kids to classics like Gilligan's Island and I Dream of Jeannie (with hilarious results). Life with Teenage Boys: The "Do Not Care Club" of middle school hygiene. From the struggle to get them to bathe to the overpowering scent of AXE body spray, the struggle is real! Book Talk: Heather shares her love for The Housemaid series by Freida McFadden and compares the reading experience to the film adaptation. Moxie Style: Why the older we get, the more we need sparkles, fringe, and feathers. Dr. Lynn reveals her latest "Megan from Mad Men" inspired purchase. Mentioned in This Episode: TV Shows: The Madison (Apple TV+), Mad Men, The Love Story (JFK Jr. & Carolyn Bessette), A Man on the Inside (Netflix), Gilligan's Island, Family Affair.

Spring Fling & The Micro-Rest Revolution: Episode 270 with Heather Pettey, CPC & Dr. Carol Lynn It's a beautiful April, and that means it's time for some spring refreshing with your favorite Life Coach BFFs! Join host Heather Pettey, CPC, and the fabulous Dr. Carol Lynn as they celebrate the vibrant start of spring and discuss tangible ways to reorganize, re-energize, and step into your power. This week, the "dynamic duo" dives into the allergy struggles common this time of year—and correct etiquette for dealing with them in public!—before tackling the main event: the "Micro-Rest Revolution." Heather and Carol explain why finding just 60 to 90 seconds of intentional peace (what they call a "micro-rest") can be more effective for lowering cortisol and resetting your nervous system than a long nap. You'll get practical advice on somatic grounding, breathing exercises like box breathing, and even the simple restorative power of laughter. And you don't want to miss an impromptu "Show and Tell" where Heather shares her latest uplifting finds (on a budget!). In this episode, we chat about: April Refresh: Feeling the seasonal itch to reorganize, clear out the clutter, and step into your personal power. Allergy SOS: Experiencing one of the worst allergy seasons in years, and why dabbing is always better than blowing at the table. The Micro-Rest Revolution: How specific 60 to 90-second nervous system resets can lower cortisol more effectively than long breaks.

In this episode of the Life Coach BFF Show, Heather Pettey and Dr. Carol Lynn dive into the beauty—and occasional messiness—of growth and change. From hilarious stories of lost rings to profound insights on evolving into new versions of ourselves, this conversation is a reminder that outgrowing your past isn't a betrayal; it's progress. In this episode, we discuss: The "No-Musical" Rule: Why Heather is officially burned out on musical theater and the hilarious reason she can't take singing suitors seriously. The Case of the Swallowed Ring: A wild story involving a standard poodle, a metal detector, and two weeks of digging through "evidence" to find a missing sparkler. Misinterpreting Emotions: How we often misread the people we love (like mistaking a desire for a heated blanket for sadness!) and why communication is key. Outgrowing Yourself: A deep dive into a powerful quote by Henry Cloud. We talk about shedding old versions of ourselves to make room for new habits, deeper character, and our 2026 word of the year: FREE. Professional Evolutions: Dr. Carol Lynn shares how her medical practice is shifting from delivering babies to supporting women through the emotional and hormonal transitions of midlife. Self-Care Life Hacks: Dr. Carol Lynn shares her new 10-minute manicure secret (Doo Nails) for the busy woman who wants to look polished without the time commitment of a salon. "Outgrowing old versions of yourself isn't betrayal. It's progress. Every 'yes' to growth may feel like a 'no' to comfort, but it is a resounding 'yes' to freedom."

We began this series asking a simple question: Is the Pugilist balanced? We continued by asking: How much damage is too much damage? Today we ask the only question left: At what point does the DM legally become a victim? Welcome to the finale of the guide to Optimizing the D&D 5e Pugilist, where the class doesn't just punch monsters, it punches D&D's encounter design. Across three episodes we've had grapples that ignore physics, exhaustion that improves performance, and damage numbers that topple dragon gods. We have reached the final stage of optimization: not just winning fights, but ending them un assisted in a single turn. Show Notes In the final installment of the RPGBOT.Podcast's series on optimizing the Pugilist in Dungeons & Dragons 5e, the hosts move from early-level performance into full class evaluation and overall design conclusions. After previously demonstrating extremely high damage output from low levels, the conversation now focuses on scaling, balance implications, and what the class actually does to a campaign over time. The episode revisits the central mechanical problem: Haymaker. The hosts repeatedly identify it as the feature that converts the Pugilist from a strong martial into a potentially disruptive one, since turning attacks into maximum damage fundamentally breaks the assumptions behind D&D 5e encounter math. As the episode continues, the class's core identity becomes clear. The Pugilist is not merely a striker; it is a layered combat engine combining advantage generation, forced positioning, resource recovery, and survivability. Features like Moxie, temporary hit points, and exhaustion mitigation allow the character to operate at peak output in nearly every encounter instead of pacing resources across the adventuring day. The conclusion of the series is less about banning the Pugilist and more about understanding its problems and how to make the class work at the table without causing problems. The class is effective, flavorful, and fun, but its mechanics change how D&D works around it. There's a real question about how much damage output is too much, and the Pugilist is clearly well past that line. Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

Episode 267: From Tap Shoes to Tattoos: Navigating Midlife with Moxie Are you still hauling around a wedding dress from 1995? Or perhaps you're wondering if that cute hip tattoo is eventually going to look more like Ursula the Sea Witch than the Little Mermaid? You are not alone! In this episode of the Life Coach BFF Show, host Heather Pettey, CPC, and the fabulous Dr. Carol Lynn dive into the hilarious (and sometimes stressful) realities of midlife. From the "million-dollar wedding" industrial complex to the literal shifts in our skin, we're talking about how to simplify, repurpose, and bring back some classic Southern vocabulary. In This Episode, You'll Learn: The Midlife Revival: Why tap dancing, the triangle, and the tambourine are the creative outlets you didn't know you needed. The Wedding Dress Dilemma: Creative ways to reuse your gown (hello, rehearsal dinner restyling!) and an incredible charity called the Angel Gown Foundation that turns gowns into bereavement suits for NICU families. Weddings: Then vs. Now: A nostalgic look at cake-and-punch receptions versus today's "drive a Tesla off a cliff" price tags. The Public Service Announcement on Tattoos: What happens to that hummingbird tattoo when gravity takes over, and the medical "ink-sights" Dr. Carol Lynn has seen in the OR. Word of the Week: Why we are officially bringing back the word "Reckon" and how to use it in your daily life (even if you're listening from Singapore!).

Last episode we discovered the Pugilist can punch above its weight class. This episode we discovered the Pugilist can punch above the entire encounter budget. Today on RPGBOT: One character becomes a professional wrestler air-dropping enemies from low orbit One character summons eldritch tentacles to commit mathematically irresponsible violence One character crits often enough to make the Rogue question their life choices Welcome back to our D&D 5e Pugilist build guide, where "balanced combat encounter" is more of a philosophical suggestion. Show Notes In Part 2 of the RPGBOT.Podcast deep dive into the Pugilist class in Dungeons & Dragons 5e, the hosts shift from theory into practice by building actual characters and analyzing low-level combat performance (levels 1–10 gameplay). After previously discussing the core mechanics like Moxie points, exhaustion gameplay, and Haymaker damage, the episode explores how subclasses dramatically amplify the class's effectiveness, especially during tier 1 and 2 where balance matters most. Each host builds a different Pugilist archetype: A grappling-focused wrestler leveraging shove-prone and movement manipulation A spell-augmented "Hand of Dread" pugilist combining melee and warlock magic A critical-hit boxer maximizing burst damage and counterattacks The discussion highlights a major mechanical theme: the Pugilist excels at advantage generation in D&D 5e combat. By knocking enemies prone, grappling, or using subclass features, the class reliably attacks with advantage, dramatically increasing DPR (damage per round). Once Haymaker is added to the equation, damage spikes sharply. The hosts compare expected damage output to standard design math ("dude-stop damage"), demonstrating that even basic tactics can nearly reach or exceed a full party's intended damage output — especially when combining Hex, advantage stacking, and bonus attacks. The episode also examines character optimization choices such as species, feats, and ability scores. Strength and Constitution dominate builds, while backgrounds and feats further push survivability and burst damage. The result is a martial class that plays less like a traditional striker and more like a hybrid of barbarian durability, monk mobility, and rogue-style burst damage. Ultimately, Part 2 reinforces the earlier conclusion: the Pugilist's real power isn't just numbers — it's how its mechanics interact. The combination of resource refresh, exhaustion mitigation, grappling control, and burst damage allows players to reshape encounters in ways most classes simply cannot at early levels. Key Takeaways D&D Pugilist subclasses drastically increase power at levels 1–5 Grapple + shove prone creates reliable advantage in D&D combat Haymaker turns consistent hits into extreme burst damage Spellcasting options (like Hex) push DPR beyond normal martial scaling The class frequently approaches or exceeds expected 5e damage per round math Tier 1 encounters struggle against optimized Pugilist builds Strength + Constitution are the optimal Pugilist ability scores Moxie point recovery enables aggressive play every fight Exhaustion mechanics become a benefit instead of a drawback The class blends control, durability, and burst damage into one role Basic tactics alone can approach "dude-stop damage" Subclasses determine whether the Pugilist breaks balance… or demolishes it Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

Every D&D party has that one character who brings a sword, one who brings a spellbook… and one who brings unresolved childhood issues and a willingness to fist-fight a dragon. Welcome to the Pugilist. Today we explore a popular D&D homebrew martial class fueled by bad decisions, Moxie points, and the medically concerning belief that exhaustion is just another resource pool. If the Barbarian is rage and the Monk is discipline, the Pugilist is: "I didn't hear no bell." Show Notes  In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, the hosts dive into a detailed overview of the Pugilist class in Dungeons & Dragons 5e, a popular homebrew martial character class created by Benjamin Huffman known for gritty street-fighter flavor and unconventional resource management. The discussion begins with the class fantasy: a bare-knuckle brawler inspired equally by boxing legends and tavern disasters. Unlike traditional D&D martial classes, the Pugilist 5e mechanics revolve around Moxie points, a flexible combat resource used for survivability, control, and burst damage rather than spells or rage. The hosts analyze how the class converts risk into power through its signature exhaustion-based gameplay design. Instead of avoiding exhaustion like most characters in a tabletop RPG, the Pugilist weaponizes it — gaining resistances, bonuses, and survivability through abilities such as Dig Deep and Bloodied but Unbowed. This creates a unique resource management strategy in D&D combat where players intentionally flirt with collapse for tactical advantage. A major portion of the conversation compares the Pugilist to other martial classes, examining damage scaling in D&D 5e, balance concerns, and how improvised weapons and grappling expand combat options. The class excels at battlefield control: shoving, grappling, and repositioning enemies while converting failed rolls into successes through Swagger-style mechanics. The hosts also discuss community reception of the class and how its design still maintains strong mechanical identity. Ultimately, the Pugilist demonstrates that a well-designed homebrew D&D class can be both flavorful and mechanically interesting — even when its primary strategy is punching reality until it cooperates. Key Takeaways The Pugilist class (D&D 5e homebrew) offers a high-flavor alternative to Monk or Barbarian martial gameplay. Moxie points function as a flexible combat resource for defense, mobility, and burst damage. The class uniquely uses exhaustion as a tactical resource instead of a punishment. Abilities like Dig Deep encourage risk-reward decision making during combat. Improvised weapons and grappling make the Pugilist a strong battlefield control martial build. Damage scaling competes with official classes but depends heavily on player tactics. The design emphasizes creative play over strict optimization balance. Failure mitigation mechanics allow recovery from bad rolls. The class rewards aggressive positioning and close-quarters strategies. Community discussion focuses on balance vs fun — and the Pugilist clearly chooses fun.

Heather Pettey is feeling a little "lighter" today—literally! After months of Dr. Carol Lynn's gentle (and not-so-gentle) medical nudging, Heather finally tackled her colonoscopy screening this morning. Fresh off the procedure and still feeling the peace of mind, she's joined by Dr. Carol Lynn to pull back the curtain on an appointment most women in midlife love to cancel. In this episode, your BFFs get up close and personal about why this screening is a total game-changer for your health. With the recent news of actors like James Van Der Beek facing colorectal cancer at a young age, the conversation has never been more urgent. We're stripping away the awkwardness to discuss the "why," the "how," and the "holy grail" of tips to make your prep night as painless—and glamorous—as possible. In This Episode, We Discuss: The "Why" Behind the Screening: Dr. Lynn shares heartbreaking stories of friends diagnosed at 45 and 51, and why the screening age has officially been lowered. Denial vs. Detection: Why we justify changes in our bodies and how to overcome the fear of "finding something." The BFF Survival Guide: Heather and Dr. Lynn's personal hacks for the prep process (yes, including the "Straw Trick"). Bathroom Spa Essentials: From the "barrier method" to the specific toilet paper that will save your skin. The Liquid Diet Masterclass: The savory savior of Chick-fil-A broth and the mystery of the elusive banana popsicle. Our Top Prep "Hacks": The Straw Trick: Use a wide straw, place it at the back of your tongue, and bypass those salty/medicinal taste buds entirely. The "Savory" Savior: Don't just stick to sweet popsicles. Strain the broth from Chick-fil-A chicken noodle soup for a flavorful, salty alternative to plain store-bought broth. The Wardrobe Choice: Skip the long nightgown (it's a hazard!) and opt for soft, oversized pajamas with an easy waistband. The "Barrier Method": Apply Vaseline or diaper rash cream before the prep starts to prevent irritation. The "Grown-Up" Treat: If your doctor allows, a cup of black coffee on the morning of the procedure (before the cutoff) can be the energy boost you need to get through the finish line. Key Takeaways for Your Health: "Your health is your greatest wealth. If you've been staring at that referral on your fridge for six months—this is your sign to call." — Dr. Carol Lynn Early Detection Saves Lives: Most insurance covers 100% of screening colonoscopies because they are preventive. Don't Go It Alone: Ensure you have someone with you to prevent falls or fainting due to dehydration or volume loss. Be Your Own Advocate: If your bathroom habits change, don't ignore it. Talk to your doctor immediately. Resources Mentioned: The "Throne" Station: Medicated wipes (Tucks), flushable wipes (use with caution!), and the "barrier" cream of your choice. Clear Liquid Favorites: Lemon and Banana popsicles (if you can find them!), clear bone broth, and black coffee. Connect with your BFFs!
