This episode digs into why so many riders never take the big motorcycle trip they dream about. What's a real reason not to go — and what's just fear or over-planning? Are we putting too much focus on the bike instead of the experience? And if you love the idea more than the lifestyle, is that okay? The group wraps with what “leaving” really means: chasing freedom, time, and the adventure you actually want.
In 2022, long-distance riders Wendy Crockett and Ian McPhee set out on a world-record attempt to visit all 58 state capitols in Australia and the U.S.—in alphabetical order. But their carefully planned motorcycle trip quickly turned into chaos: mechanical failures, illness, animal strikes, wild weather, even hospitalizations. Despite everything, they kept pushing, driven by grit, humour, and sheer determination to finish what they started. But what they didn't expect was what happened when they finally hit a point where they couldn't push any farther—when they were genuinely stuck. In sharing their situation, they discovered something surprising, something they hadn't planned for at all… and it changed the course of their journey in ways they never saw coming.

Somewhere along the way, ambition became associated with things that don't resonate with creative entrepreneurs, hustle culture, sacrificing everything for growth, becoming someone you're not. So when people talk about scaling or being ambitious, many of us instinctively recoil. Not because we don't want success, but because we don't want the version of success being sold to us. In this episode, through real-life examples, we explore what ambition actually looks like for creative businesses: having a sense of purpose, doing work you're proud of, and being fairly rewarded for it. You don't have to choose between them. You can have all three. Key Moments: [00:00] Why last week's episode on financial independence sparked this conversation about ambition [03:24] Redefining what ambition actually means for creative entrepreneurs and why it's not what you think [04:05] The three elements that make up real ambition: purpose, pride, and fair reward [06:50] What aligned scaling looks like - hint: it's amplification, not multiplication [07:48] Kate's transformation: changing one question that shifted everything for her team [10:28]The interior designer who stopped doing free consultations and created Space Planning Intensives instead [13:48] Why traditional scaling advice feels wrong and the unshakeable foundation that makes ambitious growth possible [17:39] My own journey choosing to scale on my terms and why that was more ambitious, not less [19:43] Three clarity questions that change everything about how you approach growth Notable Quotes: "Let's fully embrace and celebrate ambition. For most creatives, ambition is having a sense of purpose, doing good work you're proud of, and being fairly rewarded for it." "Ambition isn't the problem. Following someone else's definition of ambition is the problem."

Today on Just Wondering, Norm wakes up and chooses violence — politely — by asking Cowboy fans a simple, soul-shaking question: Do you realize how catastrophically important tonight's game is?Win, and hope survives. Lose, and we're talking mock drafts, emotional support queso, and whether tanking is a strategy or a coping mechanism.Norm also wonders how in the name of burnt orange pride we've arrived at mid-November with three Texas teams staring at the college football playoffs… and Texas isn't one of them. Yes, the Longhorn fans may need emotional support brisket, because the math ain't mathing, and penalties, missed throws, dropped passes and shattered expectations are starting to feel like a seasonal allergy.But hey — hope springs eternal.

Salt, Strength, And Starting AgainWhat happens when a busy mom with a full-time corporate job decides to fuse her faith with fitness and build real community around it? Kelly sits down with Jess, the founder of SALT, a prayer-led movement brand inspired by Luke 14:34 and launched on her fortieth birthday. The conversation charts the surprising chain of connections that brought this vision to life, the decision to prioritize family time without abandoning professional excellence, and the practical tools that make it all workable—think time blocking, a weekly posting cadence, and events that blend scripture, sweat, and shared purpose.We talk about the moment motherhood outran the corporate ladder, and how COVID quietly reshaped priorities. Jess shares why SALT hosts classes in churches and in neutral spaces to unite believers across denominations, and how collaborations with local schools, instructors, and community leaders helped the brand grow organically. The tactics are simple and replicable: a clear social rhythm (Never Miss a Monday, Truth-Filled Tuesday, Salty Wednesday), intentional digital detox on Sundays, and a willingness to keep events accessible so newcomers feel welcome. She also opens up about the discomfort of speaking faith out loud after a more private upbringing, and how that stretch became the source of new courage.You'll leave with ideas you can act on today: how to create boundaries without guilt, involve your kids in your mission, use AI to save time without losing your voice, and build community that actually sustains your goals. If you've ever wondered how to honor your body, deepen your faith, and still meet your responsibilities, this conversation offers a grounded, hopeful path forward.If this resonated, tap follow, share it with a friend who needs a nudge toward purpose, and leave a quick review—your words help more moms and creators find their next brave step.Resources:Hallow AppConnect with Jessica:Website: SALTIG: @sweatandlivetruthContact the Host, Kelly Kirk: Email: info.ryh7@gmail.com Get Connected/Follow: The Hue Drop Newsletter: Subscribe Here IG: @ryh_pod & @thekelly.tanke.kirk Facebook: Reclaiming Your Hue Facebook Page CAKES Affiliate Link: KELLYKIRK Credits: Editor: Joseph Kirk Music: Kristofer Tanke Thanks for listening & cheers to Reclaiming Your Hue!

Some riders are planners, while others seem to thrive amid chaos. Israel Gillette fits into that second group. He grew up in Tennessee, working in his father's cabinet shop, and somehow that evolved into a life that has taken him between Romania, racing, carpentry, and motorcycle riding across continents. When we featured him on the show in 2023, he'd already experienced his share of close calls — time in jail, a bond set at thirty thousand dollars, and a border crossing in South America that ended with gunfire. Yet he still said it was the best thing he'd ever done with his life. Adventure, stubbornness, and perhaps a bit of trouble have shaped both his riding and his way of life.

"My husband has called what I do the most expensive hobby." That comment from a member of our recent live session, followed by a casual "LOL," broke my heart a little bit. Because behind that seemingly lighthearted laugh is something so many creative business owners are sitting with, the uncomfortable question about whether what they're building is actually viable. In this episode, I walk through the very specific difference between an expensive hobby and a viable business and share a straightforward method to help you move from one to the other. Key Moments [00:00] Introduction: The uncomfortable truth about "expensive hobbies" [08:11] Defining the difference between a hobby and a business [11:23] The three-step framework for moving from hobby to viable business [17:18] Why charging properly is actually more generous [21:16] How to know if you're running a business or funding a hobby [26:09] The work required to shift from hobby to business Quotes: "If you're feeling guilty about charging, that guilt is actually keeping you from helping and providing to as many people as you can." "When you build something that genuinely works for your life, instead of something your life works around."

Welcome back to Sales & Cigars, the podcast where the only smoke we blow is from cigars. In this episode, Walter sits down with John Kelley—a firefighter, entrepreneur, podcaster, and co-founder of Beefy Marketing—for a powerful conversation about AI, automation, burnout, and what entrepreneurs need to stop doing if they want to grow. John's journey is anything but ordinary. From running into burning buildings as a paramedic and firefighter to helping small businesses humanize their marketing strategies, he brings a refreshing mix of heart, hustle, and tech-forward thinking. The two dig into the mindset shift required to thrive in a world increasingly influenced by artificial intelligence—and how business owners can use tools like AI to buy back their time, serve people better, and grow without burning out. Whether you're skeptical of AI or already using it in your business, this episode will challenge the way you think and give you real-world strategies to start applying today. In This Episode: Why AI isn't coming for your job—but someone using AI might How to stop doing low-impact tasks and start focusing on what moves the needle Why the education system failed to prepare us for the AI revolution The "steam shovel" analogy every business owner needs to hear How John uses AI voice agents and automation to create speed-to-lead and drive conversions The importance of humanizing automation and staying connected to your clients How burnout forced John to re-evaluate his business, his priorities, and his mental health The power of cigars, brotherhood, and open conversations for mental wellness Key Takeaway: If you're not using AI to eliminate low-value tasks and free up your time, you're not just falling behind—you're choosing to stay behind.

When the life she'd planned took an unexpected turn, Kathleen Perry had to find her footing again. The quiet retirement she and her husband had imagined was gone when he passed away — so she reached back to something she'd set aside long ago: a dream to wander. She set her sights on three places — Prudhoe Bay, Ushuaia, and Nordkapp — three dots on the map. And to connect those dots, she would ride a motorcycle.

Adventure motorcycling isn't just about the ride—it's about everything that comes with it: the borders, the gear, and the unpredictable moments in between. Ever had your gear raise an eyebrow—or a full-blown alarm—with airport security, police, or border agents? From tools to camping gear that triggered searches, the RAW panel shares stories of harmless objects that looked anything but, and the tense moments when curiosity met authority. And when the road itself turns uncertain, determination can clash with reality—storms rolling in, daylight fading, instincts warning “not today.” In this episode, we explore the judgment calls that separate grit from recklessness, the gear that got us flagged, and the rides we didn't finish but will never forget.

But as they climbed higher, a mild forecast unravelled into chaos — winds strong enough to stop their motorcycle mid-corner, trees down, and power lines snapping. What follows isn't a story about recklessness or bravado, but about how easily ordinary choices and a little fixation can lead riders into real danger. It's about the thin line between pressing on and pulling back — and the single moment that changed everything.

Modern motorcycles aren't just machines anymore—they're equipped with advanced technology. Ride-by-wire means your throttle hand communicates with a processor instead of a cable, and that computer considers wheel speed, lean angle, traction, braking, and more before deciding how your bike responds.

In this Rider Skills episode, Clinton Smout of SMART Riding Adventures explains how understanding ride modes can enhance your safety, control, and enjoyment on every ride.

We all choose our riding gear for comfort, style, and weather protection — trusting that if it's sold as motorcycle gear, it must also keep us safe in a crash. But how much of that trust is based on proof, and how much is just assumption? This week we speak with the head of one of the world's only independent labs that secretly buys gear off the shelf, crash-tests it, and publishes the results. What they've uncovered may completely change the way you think about the gear you've been relying on.
