The pressures of entrepreneurship can sometimes be too much to handle. No wonder then that small business owners often suffer with depression and anxiety. But are struggles with mental health an inevitability when you own a company? It's time to talk. In Season 2 Episode 8 of Making It Work we speak to Mayra Hernandez of Back of the Yards Coffee Co., Paul Pallas of SWISCO, Dahlia Rizk of Buckle Me Baby Coats and Nik Hawks of Paleo Treats. From daily anxiety attacks to contemplating suicide, four small business owners speak candidly about their depreciating mental health – and the steps they've taken to manage it. So does the macho myth of entrepreneurship contribute to these feelings of hopelessness? Or do small business owners suffer the same as everybody else? Tune in to find out.
There are few words that get thrown around in the world of entrepreneurship as much as 'innovation'. And while for many, it brings about thoughts of Marie Curie and George Washington Carver, for small business owners being innovative is just one more way to survive. In Season 2 Episode 4 of Making It Work we speak to Kat Samardzija of Locker Lifestyle, Casey Kelley of Blended Designs, Nik Hawks of Paleo Treats and Paul Pallas of SWISCO. From throwing things out there to "see what sticks" to staff mediation and yoga classes, all of these entrepreneurs have different approaches to innovation. The thing they all agree on? It's do or die. So what can you do to stay one step ahead of the competition? And will our entrepreneurs ever run out of ideas? Tune in to find out.
Nik Hawks returns to the Mayhem in response to the pilot survey we put out a couple months ago to take on a whole bunch of topics you, our listeners asked for. We broke this wide-ranging show into four main parts- Nik's answers a bunch of questions about his own sometimes frustrating progression and how he's had to adjust his own expectations in the sport in order to avoid being a "dangerous pilot"; I answer questions from Nik about a recent interesting discussion he had with a new pilot on launch; we revisit some of the takeaways from the Kiwi SAR effort in Nevada; and finally Nik interviews me about the upcoming Red Bull X-Alps, my own progression choices over the years, what makes a "dangerous" vs a "safe" pilot, gear choices for hike and fly and a lot more.
With online store builders like Shopify, it's never been easier to attract the mass market. But should you go all in with your own website or dip your toe in the water with Etsy or eBay? In Season 2 Episode 3 of Making It Work we speak to Kat Samardzija of Locker Lifestyle, Ebun Olaloye of Live Breathe Futbol, Nik Hawks of Paleo Treats and Paul Pallas of SWISCO. From creating cohesive customer journeys to handling knockoffs on marketplaces, this multigenerational set of entrepreneurs tell us what it's like running an online store – and how it's changed since the early aughts. So should you splash out on that Shopify plan or carry on at that craft fair? Tune in to find out.
Working round the clock has always been a strong symbol of entrepreneurship. But does it do you and your business any good in the long term, or is it just a fast path to burnout? In Season 2 Episode 2 of Making It Work we speak to Dahlia Rizk of Buckle Me Baby Coats, Nik Hawks of Paleo Treats, Kat Samardzija of Locker Lifestyle and Mayra Hernandez of Back of the Yards Coffee Co. From breaking up your day into 30 minute chunks to fighting fires in the early hours, four small business owners discuss how they manage their precious time and whether you can ever stop thinking about work. So should you be packing boxes until bedtime? Or is it time to axe the agenda and start putting yourself first? Tune in to find out.
We're back for a second season, and we're feeling festive. For most small businesses the period from Thanksgiving to Christmas is crucial for driving sales, but what's happening behind the scenes? In Season 2 Episode 1 of Making It Work we speak to Nik Hawks of Paleo Treats, Mayra Hernandez of Back of the Yards Coffee Co., Ebun Olaloye of Live Breathe Futbol and Kat Samardzija of Locker Lifestyle. From placing orders in August to roping in friends and family as free labor, we talk to four entrepreneurs about how they plan for the few months that can account for 80% of their sales. So should you take on the big boys on Black Friday? And, more importantly, what's the deal with pumpkin spice lattes? Tune in to find out.

Nik Hawks is an entrepreneur, athlete, and veteran (Navy SEAL). Among his many pursuits, he is a paraglider, writer, podcaster, Red Bull athletic performance consultant, and founder of a paleo dessert company. In this conversation, Nik talks to Payson about why it took him three tries to complete the Leadville 100 ultramarathon, choosing between health and athletic performance in regards to diet, what it's like working within the individually-minded world of elite athletes as opposed to the team-oriented world of the military, why he loves being underestimated by strangers, and his distaste for being pigeon-holed as a Navy SEAL. He also opens up about his struggle reintegrating with civilian life which led to a close brush with suicide, and how transitions such as his are not unique to veterans, and are actually universal.
Nike Hawks is the owner of Paleo Treats, avid paraglider, and all around amazing human. Nik has founded a number of businesses, including an ATM company as well as a luxury apparel brand.

Have you ever done the Paleo diet? If so, did you find it hard to create your own healthy treats to satisfy your sugar cravings? How did you do it without breaking your dietary commitments? Today's guests, Nik Hawks and Lee Selman, can attest to this struggle. They jumped on the Paleo train over a decade ago....but that was when it wasn't much of a "thing". Back then, there were no treats to buy at the store or dessert recipes to try that actually tasted great. So in 2009 they decided to create Paleo Treats (www.paleotreats.com), pre-made treats for people on the Paleo diet. Nik and Lee are certainly not new to the entrepreneur scene or taking big risks. You will enjoy hearing their amazing adventures which include a walk across the Sahara dessert by foot, several years as a Navy Seal, photojournalism in Nicaragua, and several business start-ups. Through it all, they have found that success is failing forward and have learned every step of the way. Now Paleo Treats is regarded by Fed Ex as one of the top 10 small businesses in the country and they have even been given a position on their advisory board! Paleo Treats ships direct to the consumer, buts is also located in 50 stores throughout the country. You can even find them on Amazon! In this episode, Nik and Lee will help fellow entrepreneurs and business owners to: ~Learn that rejection is actually protection! You will be steered in the right direction based off even your "no's". ~Realize that you need to stay filled up by connecting with something that brings you joy. Only then will you be able to give your best self to others! ~Trust your intuition and then take a step forward If you would like to try out some of Nik and Lee's tasty treats, head on over to their website www.paleotreats.com.

Nik Hawks returns to the Mayhem to share two pretty scary incidents that ended well, but came with a LOT of lessons that every pilot can learn from including: coming back from "fear injuries" by using the big 4, time, building exposure, and pattern recognition; how to get better at self-assessment (wingovers, exit from 360, exiting and entering spirals cleanly, avoiding and handling collapses, etc.); how to ask older/better pilots for help and the best way to approach mentors; when a pilot is really ready to go XC and what risks that involves; what groundhandling can...and maybe can't help with...

-importance of experts, addressing the last show Email from Mike in Flagstaff: “I basically agree with everything you say, but want to push back just a little on your comments about experts. I don't take issue with what you say as far as it goes. But, I do feel the general theme of not needing experts and that a generally competent person can learn what they need to know about any general topic needs a little clarification just because of the current social and political milieu. We do need experts, and experts do know a lot that one can't easily teach oneself. You don't want a self-taught person who spent a few hours researching things on the internet flying your plane, designing the steering and brakes on your car, or removing your appendix. We need experts managing technology, the economy, diplomacy, and government. The so-called “death of expertise” brought about by wide social trends and leveraged strongly by the internet has led to the anti-vaccine movement, climate change denial, and a general push-back on the concept of truth. This is not to say that experts can't be mistaken or do things wrong, and left to themselves they may take things in a non-desirable direction, witness Facebook and the dissemination of fake news. One could argue that an issue with Facebook is that experts in one thing, software engineering, were working in a field in which they were not expert, essentially social engineering, and got into trouble. But when the experts do fuck it up, the people who generally need to fix it are other experts. Maybe you agree with most of this (or don't); it just wasn't said in the podcast and I feel has relevance on a broader scale and to some of the things I have been thinking about, so I'm putting it out there.” -Using affirmations, how I do it, not specific but general laying out of the state I want to be in the most during the day, setting the default “I see every obstacle as a gift - as a challenge to be overcome, and in the overcoming to force growth and power that I can use forever again and again. I am willing to see the world in such a way as to always reap the most benefit from it - I choose to perceive my world as an institution dedicated to my excellence. Every challenge, every gift, every human, every animal, plant, physical, mental or emotional I object I encounter is a n opportunity for greatness!” -What if each day was viewed as your opportunity to be great? -“Are you light on that wing?” and working hard -reading Terrence McKenna's True Hallucinations, what we teach in school: food, body, drugs, sex -crashing my paraglider: Not doing what you know you need to do, how we learn, one from the luck jar -crypto tanked, loss, understanding luck, risk, money stress -joy is cheap: great food, warm showers, time in nature -the pulse circle & connection with humans
I've been driving around lately listening to all my usual podcasts and going off on my quests down various seams of curiosity and thought I'd share some of my convos with myself, with you. This is the first solo-cast I've done, let me know if you'd like to hear more or if you'd rather get back to the interviews with another person. In this episode I'll talk about the following ideas: -dare to be great -power of reading books and leveraging experience/knowledge/time equation -men need danger, excitement, community -not everyone should be an entrepreneur -better to be curious and listen when you want to accomplish a joint task -why you should judge for yourself what's “worth listening to”, and why a Navy SEAL (or anyone) may not be worth listening to, the effect of hazard on importance of message, see “men need danger” above -brain intensity training, just like physical intensity training. Intensity in general.
195: Paleo Treats by Navy Veteran Nik Hawks Chocolate cookies, brownies -- how would you like to have some healthy, gluten-free desserts? Joe Crane shares Paleo Treats by Navy Veteran Nik Hawks. Listen to his story and learn how you too can avail of these healthy, delectable treats! "You think about the difference in quality and the difference in price, you're basically getting a superific deal on healthy desserts." - Nik Hawks From the Navy to Entrepreneurship Nik joined the Navy in 1995. He had a great time doing the things he dreamed of. In the year 2000, he transitioned into the civilian life. When he met the woman who was to become his wife, she was sold out on entrepreneurship. He saw the possible things he could achieve if he did the same thing. And that inspired him in his journey. One Valuable Skill from the Military Nik saw that even with his well-honed skills, they were not very useful in the civilian life. The hard skills they have like shooting or jumping from an airplane do not transfer well. According to him, learning to do something easily and well is a valuable skill that most Veterans take away from their career in the military. They can step into any job and learn it easily. Paleo Treats for Crossfitters Nik started one business after another. He experienced building websites, running a T-shirt company, as well as driving around California with a mobile notary for real estate. It was in 2009 when he and his wife came across Paleo treats for crossfitters. They started that business and their products were sold out as early as 10 AM in the first day. To this day, they sell healthy desserts. Among which are brownies and chocolate bars. All are strictly made of Paleo ingredients and are also tasty.
