In this episode of the Private Practice Owners Club, Nathan Shields and Adam Robin break down one of the biggest hidden profit leaks in private practice: poor billing oversight.

Ever feel like you really want something, but some part of you keeps getting in the way?In this insightful and practical episode of the High Vibin' It Podcast, Kelsey Aida and Lynnsey Robinson dive into one of the biggest reasons we can struggle to create the lives we want: the subconscious mind.Lynnsey breaks down how the subconscious is formed, why its primary job is to keep us safe rather than happy or fulfilled, and how old beliefs can quietly influence the goals, relationships, and experiences we allow ourselves to have. Together, they explore why what feels familiar can sometimes feel safer than what we actually want, even when that familiar reality no longer serves us.They also unpack the idea of "self-sabotage" and offer a more compassionate way to understand it. Instead of seeing your subconscious as something working against you, what if it's simply running outdated programming that once helped you survive?From identifying limiting beliefs and questioning your self-talk to making new goals feel safe, this episode offers practical ways to become more curious about what's happening beneath the surface and start getting your whole mind on board with the life you're creating.✨ What You'll Discover:How your subconscious mind is formedWhy the subconscious is focused on safety, not happinessHow childhood experiences shape your beliefs and identityWhy your subconscious doesn't know when an old belief is outdatedWhat "self-sabotage" actually meansWhy familiar situations can feel safer than unfamiliar onesHow your subconscious can resist goals that feel too different from your current identityHow to tell if your subconscious may be blocking a goalWhy curiosity is more helpful than judging yourselfHow to identify the beliefs hiding behind procrastination and resistanceA simple practice for rewriting limiting self-talkWhy handwriting can help reinforce new beliefsHow to make your goals feel safer to your subconsciousWhy becoming the new version of yourself requires inner workHow self-love can help you recognize what is no longer serving you✨ Want more?In the extended Patreon episode, Kelsey and Lynnsey pull a Blind Spot card to explore what might be secretly keeping you stuck.

What if one conversation could change the way you lead?Communication strategist, CEO, and author Lee Caraher believes it can.As CEO of Double Forte, Lee has spent decades helping organizations communicate more clearly, build stronger teams, and navigate difficult conversations. Along the way, she noticed something troubling: too many women's voices were missing from important conversations.Rather than simply point out the problem, Lee set an ambitious goal—to help 5,000 women be heard as confident spokespersons and recognized experts in their fields. She's now remarkably close to reaching that milestone.In this conversation, Lee shares practical strategies for communicating with clarity, resolving conflict before it grows, and building trust through honest conversations. We also explore why assumptions create unnecessary misunderstandings, how emotions can become valuable information instead of obstacles, and why great leadership begins with saying what you actually mean.Whether you're leading a team, your family, a volunteer organization, your community, or simply yourself through your next chapter, this episode offers practical ideas you can begin using today.In this episode, you'll learn:Why Lee set a goal to help 5,000 women be heardHow clear communication strengthens relationships and leadershipWhy assumptions and "they should know" often create unnecessary conflictA simple framework for turning difficult conversations into productive onesHow emotions can become valuable information instead of something to suppressWhy your personal brand is really your reputationWhy great leaders communicate with clarity, curiosity, and compassionOne of my favorite reminders from our conversation:"You cannot overcommunicate."When leaders communicate with clarity and curiosity, everyone has a better opportunity to succeed.Connect with Lee Caraher

When a brand says it "used AI," that could mean anything from a tool speeding up a human's first draft to a system generating and shipping work on its own — and almost all of the real risk lives in the difference. So as AI moves deeper into creative work, which decisions are you certain still belong to a human?Real agility here isn't being quick with the latest tools. It's moving fast without losing the through-line that makes a brand recognizable — the ability to know exactly where human judgment stays non-negotiable.Today we're recording live at Ai4 2026 in Las Vegas at the Venetian, and we're going to talk about:- Drawing a clear line between where AI sharpens creative work and where it introduces unacceptable brand risk.- A practical look at how AI was used in a national campaign to improve the creative process, not just automate it.- The strategic shift as consumers move from traditional search engines to AI-powered platforms for discovery and research.To help me dig into this, I'd like to welcome Taryn Crouthers, CEO at Big Spaceship.About Taryn CrouthersTaryn Crouthers is the CEO of Big Spaceship, MSQ Partners' award-winning creative agency.

"The podcast isn't the business. The podcast is the handshake that starts the business."Nearly half of all podcasts are dead within three episodes, and one in three creators quit their show entirely. Most of them don't fail because the host was boring — they fail because of decisions made before anyone ever hit record. In this episode, I walk through the five mistakes I see businesses make over and over again when starting a podcast, and exactly how to avoid each one.Key TakeawaysNiche or Nothing: "Everything and anything" podcasts have no real listener. Define one ideal listener, not an audience, and test every episode idea against them.One Show, One CTA: A podcast that promotes every guest's business but never your own is a free marketing channel, not a business asset.Customers, Not Sponsors: Sponsorship money takes years of downloads to build. Your podcast's job is turning the right 200 listeners into clients, not chasing 100,000 downloads.Start Before You're Ready: It took seven years to build the current setup, and the first, rough version of the show still built the entire business.Audio Quality Is Brand Quality: Bad sound isn't a technical flaw, it's a trust problem. People judge fast, and "unedited" isn't the same as "natural."Chapters and Timestamps00:00 – Why nearly half of podcasts die within 3 episodes00:01 – Mistake #1: Starting a podcast about everything and anything, and how to define your one ideal listener00:04 – Mistake #2: Turning your podcast into free marketing for everyone else00:06 – Mistake #3: Starting a podcast to make money instead of making customers00:09 – Mistake #4: Waiting until everything is perfect before you launch00:12 – Mistake #5: Treating sound quality as an afterthoughtSend us Fan MailBook a free call with me here to help you create the best podcast possible!

At that exact moment, a three-metre tree branch fell from approximately 20 metres above and landed directly on her.In this remarkably honest episode of ListenABLE, Emma speaks about learning to live with incomplete paraplegia, chronic nerve pain, impaired bowel and bladder function, invisible disability and the loss of her career as an operational paramedic.Emma's story is about terrible luck, extraordinary recovery and what she describes as “forced resilience”.Emma discusses:The split-second accident that changed her lifeWaiting three hours for a helicopter rescueBeing diagnosed with incomplete paraplegiaHer partner proposing in intensive careThe moment she discovered she could no longer standBowel and bladder function after a spinal cord injuryLiving with daily chronic nerve painCompleting an Ironman after leaving hospitalLosing her career as an operational paramedicFinding freedom and relief through cyclingLiving with an invisible disabilityWhy strangers react differently when shaking her handThe reality of hiding pain from loved onesHow disability changed her perception of safety and riskHer ambition to compete at the LA 2028 Paralympic Games00:00 A one-in-20-million accident01:27 The New Zealand hiking trip03:12 Emma's spinal cord and nerve injuries04:39 Being told to prepare for life in a wheelchair05:42 A hospital proposal Emma cannot remember08:16 Feeling both incredibly unlucky and incredibly lucky09:22 Why Emma cannot remember the accident10:44 How her friends kept her alive14:06 Arriving at spinal rehabilitation15:13 The moment Emma discovered she could not stand17:22 Would Emma undo the accident?18:33 Bowel, bladder and chronic pain21:20 Recovery as a professional athlete22:09 Completing an Ironman after her injury24:17 Why cycling makes Emma feel normal25:42 Road racing and time trials26:11 The dream of LA 202826:46 Losing her career as a paramedic29:45 Living with an invisible disability31:47 How to handle an unexpected handshake33:11 The reality of “forced resilience”34:27 How the accident changed Emma's perspective35:19 Living with daily pain36:35 The Bowl of Uncomfortable38:24 Vulnerability and a changed perception of risk40:49 The perfect handshakeEmma Mickle, Emma Mickle cyclist, Australian para-cyclist, para-cycling Australia, spinal cord injury recovery, incomplete paraplegia, incomplete spinal cord injury, brachial plexus injury, chronic nerve pain, invisible disability, disability awareness, adaptive sport, rehabilitation through sport, Ironman after spinal cord injury, Australian Paralympic cycling, LA 2028 Paralympics, disability podcast Australia, ListenABLE podcast, Dylan Alcott, Angus O'Loughlin.This episode includes discussions of traumatic injury, spinal cord injury, bowel and bladder function, chronic pain, sexual health and personal safety.#ListenABLE #EmmaMickle #ParaCycling #SpinalCordInjury #InvisibleDisability #AdaptiveSport #Paralympics #LA2028 #DisabilityPodcast #ChronicPain

In this episode of The International Risk Podcast, host Dominic Bowen is joined by Lisa Sachs, Director of the Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment at Columbia University's Climate School, to unpack why critical minerals have become one of the defining forces in global geopolitics, economics and security, and why the countries richest in them so often stay poor.Sachs draws on two decades advising governments, investors and international institutions on resource governance to explain why minerals like lithium, cobalt and copper are not a new story but a long overlooked one, now thrust into the headlines by the clean energy transition and the race for AI. She examines why so few mining communities are genuinely better off for having mining nearby, why the "resource curse" is really a failure to treat natural resource governance as inseparable from geopolitics and international finance, and why the murky politics behind deals like the Kazakhstan tungsten project linked to the Trump family raise uncomfortable questions about conflict of interest at the highest levels. The conversation also covers what she calls "legalized corruption" in how resource deals get structured, why resource nationalism can be reasonable for developing countries but self-defeating for wealthy ones racing to secure their own supply chains, and why she believes AI and the energy transition represent a genuine opportunity to correct decades of unequal value capture if governments and companies are willing to learn from past mistakes.Key topics discussed:Why critical minerals are not the "new oil" but have always been central to the global economyWhat resource governance actually means in practice, beyond permits and environmental regulationWhy Sachs struggles to name mining communities that are genuinely better off for having miningThe conflict of interest questions raised by the Trump family's Kazakhstan tungsten investment"Legalized corruption" and the use of tax structuring and diplomatic pressure in resource dealsWhy resource nationalism is rational for developing countries but self-defeating for wealthy onesHow companies keep misreading community resistance to mining projectsWhether the clean energy transition and AI will reduce global inequality or deepen itThe international risks Dr. Sachs is watching most closely today, from climate change to AI driven inequalityThis episode is relevant to anyone interested in critical minerals, resource governance, geopolitics, supply chain security, sustainable investment or international risk.The International Risk Podcast brings you conversations with global experts, frontline practitioners and senior decision-makers who are shaping how we understand and respond to international risk.

Most people think successful founders are just better at working hard.They're not. They're better at deciding.I recently ran a session on this at our High Ticket Heaven Mastermind, and it turned into one of the most requested talks from the whole event.Every business, at its core, is just a collection of decisions. The quality of those decisions compounds over time, and so does the damage from bad ones.In this talk I go through the actual framework I use to make decisions in my business, including:Why reducing the number of decisions you make daily is the single biggest lever for better onesHow to build a "pattern library" so you're not solving every problem from scratchThe one hiring rule that matters more than any otherA simple way to think about which decisions are worth making fast, and which ones need more careIf you're scaling a business past seven figures, this is worth 45 minutes of your time.Click here to watch the full Masterclass: https://youtu.be/MMcbzMnSBtA

On another all-Roundtable edition of the Variety Awards Circuit Podcast, the team opens by discussing their World Cup fever — and apologizing to Jazz for the nail-biter loss of her England team to Argentina. We then dive into burning Emmy questions, including the potential spoilers in the drama and comedy races (it's probably "The Pitt" and "Hacks," but there are a few backup contenders) and we look at some of the supporting races where one show dominates — do the contenders all cancel each other out?

How do you make people care about your documentary?Facts alone rarely make an audience care. The emotional core of a documentary lives somewhere else. In this episode of Documentary First, filmmaker Christian Taylor tells the story of how she found the heartbeat her film about the Battle of Carentan was missing. It was not in the archives. It was in the memories of a man who was six years old when the war came for his town.For months, Christian's film Heroes of Carentan felt stuck in what one WWII veteran called the “data of history,” the maps, the dates, and the military maneuvers. Everything shifted when she met Yves Marchais. In June 1944, Yves was a small boy living under German occupation in Carentan, France. This year he sent Christian thirteen letters recording what he remembered, and those letters gave the historical record a soul.It comes down to a lesson every documentary filmmaker learns the hard way: audiences do not connect to issues or information, they connect to people. Anchored by a line from Pfc. John E. Fitzgerald, a runner for Medal of Honor recipient Lt. Col. Robert Cole, this episode argues that the essence of history is not its record but its heartbeat. Yves calls his own account his “hummingbird's share,” not the whole war, but the small, vivid pieces that passed before a child's eyes. His story becomes a lesson in telling a big historical event through one small, personal one.In this episode, you'll learn:Why facts and figures alone rarely move an audienceHow to find the emotional core, or heartbeat, of a documentaryWhy audiences connect to people, not to issues or informationHow to tell a big historical story through one small, personal oneWhat Pfc. John E. Fitzgerald meant when he warned that history can lose its heartbeatWhy one person's story can carry an entire historical eventWhat the “hummingbird's share” is, and why small memories matter more than big onesHow the Battle of Carentan looked through the eyes of a six-year-old boyHow Yves Marchais and his family survived the occupation and liberation of CarentanWhy the story a filmmaker starts with is often not the story worth tellingWhat the series Band of Brothers has to do with the real Battle of CarentanHow to know when your film has finally found its emotional coreChapters:00:00 Meeting a survivor of Carentan01:15 13 letters and Band of Brothers02:26 Life under German occupation04:01 D-Day and the kitchen sink05:27 Fleeing an empty Carentan06:59 The trench and liberation08:45 Colonel Cole and the runner10:57 The lesson: find your heartbeatFrequently Asked Questions:How do you find the emotional core of a documentary?Facts and chronology rarely move an audience on their own. The emotional core, what host Christian Taylor calls the heartbeat, usually lives in one person's specific, lived experience rather than in the broad historical record. In this episode she describes finding it in the memories of Yves Marchais, a French civilian who was six during the Battle of Carentan, and building the film's meaning around his point of view.How do you make an audience care about a documentary subject?Audiences connect to people far more than to issues or information. The most reliable way to make viewers care about a large subject, a war, a movement, a crisis, is to tell it through one specific person whose experience makes the bigger story personal. In this episode, Christian Taylor builds her film about the Battle of Carentan around a single child's memories rather than the broad military record.What was the Battle of Carentan?The Battle of Carentan was a June 1944 fight for the town of Carentan in Normandy, France, a key objective linking the American forces landing at Utah and Omaha beaches. The 101st Airborne Division, including units later made famous by Band of Brothers, fought to take the town, which was liberated on June 12, 1944.Who is Yves Marchais?Yves Marchais is a French man who, as a six-year-old boy, lived through the German occupation and the 1944 liberation of Carentan. Decades later he recorded his childhood memories of the war in a series of letters, which became the emotional core of Christian Taylor's documentary. He calls his account his “hummingbird's share,” the small, true pieces of history he witnessed firsthand.What did Pfc. John Fitzgerald mean about history losing its heartbeat?Pfc. John E. Fitzgerald, who served as a runner for Medal of Honor recipient Lt. Col. Robert Cole, wrote that the data of history should not lose its heartbeat as it becomes information, or all that remains is the record without the essence. Christian Taylor uses that idea as the key to her film: the facts of a battle matter, but the human story is what makes people care.About the Film and the Story:Heroes of Carentan is Christian Taylor's in-production documentary about the 1944 liberation of Carentan, Normandy, told through the people who lived it. Yves Marchais was six years old during the battle. His firsthand account of the occupation, the bombing, his family's escape through a deserted town, and the moment of liberation forms the emotional center of the film. This episode is the second part of Christian's story about finding that center.About Documentary First:Documentary First is a weekly podcast about the craft, business, and truth of documentary filmmaking. Host Christian Taylor is a documentary filmmaker (The Girl Who Wore Freedom), actor, voice actor, and podcast host based in the United States.

Abby Pawley started by painting surfboards in Virginia Beach, then said yes to a 50-foot mural festival wall that changed everything. Five years later, her work has shown up in Amazon's main entrance, an IKEA Monet collaboration, local landmarks, and commercial spaces across her community. Abby shares how she left a warehouse job with no perfect plan, followed up until clients answered, handled the panic of large-scale projects, and learned to keep painting through the ugly middle when even she needed to trust the process. She also talks honestly about AI-generated client requests, social media pressure, public rejection, and the kind of persistence that can turn a “no” into the next wall.Abby Pawley is the Virginia Beach artist and muralist behind Pawley Prints, creating colorful murals, coastal-inspired pieces, and large-scale commercial work for brands and local spaces. Based in Virginia Beach, her work carries the influence of her high school art teachers, who encouraged her early on, and the community that helped her grow.Connect with Abby:WebsiteIGTikTokCreative Finds:Zibra 1/8" Detail Brush – our most requested size, launching July 30 at enjoyzibra.com (use code BANTER10 for 10% off)In this episode, we discuss:Why Abby left her warehouse job after her first mural, even without a perfect planHow steady follow-up helped turn an Amazon referral into a real projectWhy referrals still require persistence, clear communication, and self-advocacyWhat changes when your work moves from small surfaces to 50-foot wallsHow artists can get through the ugly middle of a project without spiralingWhy Abby's most effective social media posts are often the simple, honest onesHow sharing rejection can build trust with your audience and help other artists keep goingWelcome to Brush & Banter—the podcast where creativity meets real-life hustle.

Por eso les decimos, estén atentos también a los capítulos que vienen, porque hay cierre de lujo. Bueno, este par de amigos que tuvimos la suerte de encontrarnos estuvieron en el jurado de Titanium. O sea, es ese jurado donde se premia todo lo que viene a plantear un antes y un después de la industria. Y estuvimos precisamente hablando de eso, de su experiencia como jurados en esta categoría, donde, como bien decía su presidenta Chaka Sobhani, se mezclan jirafas con naranjas cuando estás hablando, porque es todas las ideas del mundo compitiendo para entender cuál es esa que está planteando un antes y un después en nuestra industria de las comunicaciones. Y bueno, fue una belleza porque empezamos pensando que íbamos a lograr tener a uno de los Jurados, pero finalmente cayó otra de las invitadas, que es una maravilla y fue hermoso ver cómo la espontaneidad se nos va dando con este par de cracks de la industria que vinieron a hablar y a contarnos muchas más de las cosas que suceden dentro de estos jurados.

You're praying. You're showing up with faith. You're doing the work. And yet — disappointment keeps showing up too. Heartache. Loneliness. Unmet expectations. Emotional fatigue.And after a while, a tension begins to build. Because you want your heart to stay open and surrendered. But the hurt is real. The loneliness is real. The ache is real. And if you were honest, you might find yourself asking: How do I keep my heart aligned with God when it keeps getting broken?In this episode of Just Nona, I'm answering a heart question from a listener named Lanika, who is trying to hold both honesty and faith at the same time — and is asking one of the most important questions in the life of a believer: How do you address your feelings honestly and still anchor into God's steadfast love? How do you battle loneliness without just spiritualizing it away?This is not a conversation about performing faith. It is a conversation about what it looks like to bring your whole heart to God — not the edited version.We talk about:Why your feelings are not the problem — and what they are actually trying to tell youThe unique exhaustion that comes from repeated emotional hits, not one big moment but many small onesHow spiritualizing pain instead of processing it quietly disconnects you from God and from yourselfWhat David's raw, unfiltered prayer in Psalm 13 reveals about honesty as a form of faithWhy God's love is not fragile — and what that means for the real version of youThe practical pattern of feel, express, and anchor — and why suppressing skips the most important stepAnd what loneliness is actually an invitation to, beyond just human connectionYou are not too emotional. You are not weak. And you are not failing spiritually because you feel deeply.Healing doesn't happen in what you hide. It happens in what you bring.Order my books at https://www.nonajones.com/books Connect with me: https://www.nonajones.comhttps://www.instagram.com/nonanotnorahttps://www.facebook.com/NonaNotNoraIf you or someone you know is struggling with thoughts of self-harm, please reach out.

Este año preside el jurado de Print & Publishing en Cannes Lions 2026.Arranca Cannes 2026 y esto es una belleza que estemos ya en el primer día de premiación. Tuvimos la suerte de encontrarnos con nuestra queridísima amiga que ya nos va a presentar Marley para contarnos lo que vivió ella como presidenta del jurado de Print and Publishing en esta edición del festival. Fue una belleza porque pasamos hablando de cómo se eligió el Grand Prix. Hablamos de la importancia del print versus la pantalla hoy en día y como eso sigue vivo. Además tuvimos la suerte de escuchar de primera mano y antes que nadie, el discurso que iba a dar ese mismo día en la noche. Fue una belleza porque hablamos de muchísimas cosas, obviamente de todo lo que fue su proceso como presidenta del jurado, pero también de cómo a veces vale la pena tomarse un poquito más de tiempo en el craft antes de mandar una pieza a Cannes. Pero de una cosa muy linda que me gustó, que es cómo México trae la felicidad al mundo y cómo eso debería ser una de las cosas que tengamos en cuenta cuando estemos haciendo creatividad para el festival. Pero bueno, no quiero contarles demasiado. Mejor ya que comiencen las hostilidades y que arranque Cannes la y en 2026 con el Martínez Popup que se abre y se cierra durante esta edición del Martínez Podcast Bar.

Have you ever wondered why you keep ending up in the same kind of relationship, even when the person looks completely different?In this episode of Sarah's Thoughts, Sarah Grynberg explores the hidden emotional patterns that shape who we choose, why certain relationships feel instantly magnetic, and how our nervous systems often mistake familiarity for love. She reflects on the unconscious ways childhood experiences and emotional conditioning influence attraction, connection, and the cycles we continue repeating without realising it.Sarah unpacks the difference between healthy love and familiar dysfunction, and why so many people unknowingly recreate emotional dynamics that feel “safe” simply because they recognise them. She also explores how awareness becomes the first real step toward changing the patterns that no longer serve us.You'll learn:Why familiar relationship dynamics can feel more attractive than healthy onesHow childhood emotional experiences shape the partners we chooseThe mindset shift that helps break repetitive relationship patternsThis episode is a reminder that you are not broken, difficult to love, or doomed to repeat the same story forever. The patterns you carry were learned, which means they can also be unlearned. And sometimes the biggest shift in your love life doesn't come from finding someone new, but from finally recognising what you've been unconsciously saying yes to all along.Purchase Sarah's book: Living A Life Of Greatness here.To purchase Living A Life of Greatness outside Australia here or here.Watch A Life of Greatness Episodes On Youtube here.Sign up for Sarah's newsletter (Greatness Guide) here.Purchase Sarah's Meditations here.Instagram: @sarahgrynberg Website: https://sarahgrynberg.com/Facebook: facebook.com/sarahgrynbergTwitter: twitter.com/sarahgrynberg Hosted on Acast.

Yesterday in a client session, something came up that I had to bring straight to the show. A business owner with multiple thriving locations told me her approach to underperformance: she has the conversation right away. No waiting, no managing around it, no hoping it fixes itself.That conversation led me straight to the question at the center of this episode: what are you willing to tolerate? Because whatever you're allowing to keep happening, you're also communicating is acceptable. And the cost of that — financially and culturally — compounds faster than most leaders realize.In this episode you will learn:Why your business will only ever rise to the level of what you're willing to tolerateWhat it actually costs you to let underperformance go unaddressed — and why the real loss is your high performers, not your low onesHow to have the "are you in or are you out" conversation with clarity and empathyWhy the people who are genuinely bought in can hear hard feedback — and what it means when they can'tWhy giving clear feedback and putting the decision back on them changes everything about how this feelsConnect with me: Website: www.liagarvin.com Email: hello@liagarvin.com Instagram: @lia.garvin LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/liagarvinLooking for support for yourself of your team?

A bright blue guitar covered in orange koi fish vanished from a museum display … and Swifties immediately knew what it meant.That distinctive guitar—the one Taylor Swift used to record Speak Now—had been a gift. Hand crafted, by the founders of Taylor Guitars. When she brought it back on stage during her Eras tour, the fans went wild.In this episode, Bob Taylor and Kurt Listug tell the unlikely story behind one of the world's most respected acoustic guitar brands—how it grew from a tiny San Diego repair shop doing $30,000/year into a global business with nine-figure revenue. And how it survived every challenge that should've ended it: a distributor deal that didn't add up, a brutal market crash in the disco era, and such slow growth that—five years into the business—the founders could barely pay themselves a salary ($15/week).It's a story about serendipity, obsession, and the quiet power of a partnership where each person knows their lane—Bob with relentless craftsmanship, Kurt with the discipline to turn it into a massive business.Plus: the purple 12-string featured in Prince's “Raspberry Beret” … the MTV Unplugged boom that boosted the business … and why the founders eventually chose to convert the business to 100% employee ownership.What you'll learn:The operating principle that changed Taylor's production: one finished guitar beats 10 half-finished onesHow to make a slow-growth business survivable (and why Bob saw it as “education”)How to recognize a bad distribution dealThe design innovations that drew musicians to Taylor guitarsWhy Bob got a call from Taylor Swift's dad when she was 14—and the iconic guitar her fans grew to loveHow the business managed demand shocks during COVIDWhy an ESOP can be a founder's best “succession plan” decisionWhat a great partnership looks like in practiceTimestamps:(Timecodes are approximate and may shift depending on platform.)00:06:39 – The high school moment: “I didn't have $175 … so I thought, I'll just make a guitar.”00:07:14 – The American Dream shop: the hippie setup that became a launchpad00:10:20 – The “baseball bat neck” problem with guitars—and Bob's happy-accident innovation00:11:59 – Buying the shop for $3,700 … then realizing it didn't include the name (or phone number)00:22:31 – The sentence that changed everything: “Would you rather have 10 half-done guitars or one done guitar?”00:26:28 – The distributor deal that ended in layoffs: good sell job, bad math, and what they learned00:38:30 – Buying out the third partner: why the business doubled when “the brakes were off”00:59:52 – Before Taylor Swift was Taylor Swift: a phone call from a proud dad, and a promotional concert that almost went unheard01:09:36 – The inflation economics of guitar building***Hey—want to be a guest on HIBT?If you're building a business, why not get advice from some of the greatest entrepreneurs on Earth?Every Thursday on the HIBT Advice Line, a previous HIBT guest helps new entrepreneurs work through the challenges they're facing right now.
