Many people make more money and somehow feel more afraid. Afraid to decide. Afraid to lose. Afraid to look foolish. Afraid to miss out. https://www.youtube.com/live/00ErZ7MiuEM This isn't a fringe problem. It's everywhere.And it's solvable. Bruce and I recorded this episode to hand you a simple tool you can use to reframe fear and build the kind of financial life that runs on clarity, certainty, and stewardship. Overcoming financial fear starts hereWhat Financial Fear Really IsMake Financial Fear Work For YouScarcity vs Abundance With MoneyWhy Typical Financial Planning Fuels AnxietyTraditional Planning Builds CertaintyPut Money Back In Its PlaceHow Media and Culture Feed FearThe Practical System To Overcome Financial FearTypical Planning vs Traditional PlanningTypical PlanningTraditional PlanningOvercoming Financial Fear: From scarcity to abundance – your next stepBuild certainty, not anxiety – listen in and take your next stepBook A Strategy CallFAQ – Overcoming Financial FearWhat causes financial fear?How do I overcome financial fear fast?What is the abundance mindset with money?Is money good or evil?Why does typical retirement planning increase anxiety?How do cash flowing assets reduce financial fear?How does whole life insurance help with financial fear?What is traditional financial planning? Overcoming financial fear starts here If you've ever hesitated before a money decision, second guessed yourself after signing the paperwork, or stayed stuck because the “what ifs” grew louder than your purpose, you've met financial fear. This article will help you: Understand what financial fear really is, and why even high net worth families feel it. Swap a scarcity mindset for an abundance mindset without pretending fear disappears. See why typical planning fuels anxiety and how traditional planning builds certainty. Put money back in its place as a neutral tool and elevate stewardship. Take practical steps today to move from reaction to intentional design. If fear has been in the driver's seat, it's time to move it to the passenger side and make it serve your mission. What Financial Fear Really Is Let's start at the root. Fear is not your enemy. It's a God-given alarm for imminent danger. As Bruce says, fear can save your life when a car barrels toward you. You don't want to pause and philosophize. You jump. The problem is when that same survival response starts running your money decisions. You either freeze and hoard, or you sprint from shiny object to shiny object because you're afraid to miss out. Different behaviors. Same scarcity. I've watched fear show up in two common ways: Fear of running outThe miser mindset. White knuckles. No generosity. No strategic investment. Just “hold on or else.” Fear of missing outThe constant upgrader. Bigger house, better boat, newer thing. Always chasing, never satisfied. Both are scarcity. Neither is abundance. Abundance isn't reckless. It's not denial. It's a settled conviction that value creation is limitless, and that you can make wise, long range decisions because you are a producer, not just a consumer. Make Financial Fear Work For You The most successful people don't lack fear.They refuse to let fear set the agenda. They put emotions under the leadership of a renewed mind. They use fear as a prompt to prepare, to do the work, to practice courage, and to move anyway. Here's a quick loop Bruce and I use: Name the fear. Say it out loud. Interrogate it. What's the real risk, the real timeline, the real magnitude? Reframe it. What productive action can this fear fuel today? Act. Small, specific steps beat ruminating every time. Review. Talk to yourself like you talk to a friend. Record wins. Build evidence. Courage is a muscle.Train it. Scarcity vs Abundance With Money I like to picture a continuum with scarcity at the bottom and abundance at the top. On both ends of the bell curve, scarcity looks different but feels the same. On one end, scarcity hoards and hides. On the other, scarcity spends to soothe and signal. Abundance sits at the top and does something else entirely. It designs a system where money can be saved, used, enjoyed, replenished, and directed toward a bigger mission. It recognizes that money follows value, and value flows from serving people well. Abundance knows this truth: Money is neutral.It's a magnifier of the soul. Put money in the hands of a wise steward and it multiplies blessing. Put money in the hands of a fool and it multiplies damage. Money did not change the heart. It revealed it. This is why character formation, family culture, and clear guidance are not side notes in finance. They are the engine. Why Typical Financial Planning Fuels Anxiety Typical planning was built to end your productivity.Work until X. Stop. Spend down the pile. Hope you don't outlive it. Because the goal is “stop,” the math has to guess a thousand variables. Guess your lifespan. Guess returns. Guess inflation. Guess taxes. Run a Monte Carlo and call it “certainty.” It's not certainty. It's a string of guesses. When your entire strategy rests on projections you can't control, you feed fear. You start managing to the simulation instead of managing to your mission. You also fragment your financial life into compartments that don't talk to each other. Save a little here, speculate a little there, and pray it nets out. No wonder so many feel anxious. Traditional Planning Builds Certainty Traditional planning doesn't ask, “When can I stop being productive?”It asks, “How do I keep producing, stewarding, and compounding value for generations?” That one shift changes everything. Traditional planning prioritizes: Cash flowing assets over pure appreciationThink businesses and investments that spin off usable cash today and tomorrow. Liquidity and control so you can seize opportunitiesDry powder matters. Optionality reduces fear. Properly designed whole life insurance as a foundational assetGuaranteed cash value, contractual certainty, and a death benefit that refills the family bucket. This is family banking and a reliable backstop that turns risk setbacks into recoverable chapters. Integrated estate design that includes guidanceA will and trust are the shell. A string family culture, Memorandum of Trust, clear roles, and love letters are the substance. Don't just transfer assets. Transfer wisdom and intent. A producer mindsetWe don't retire from purpose. We refine it. We build the family enterprise and train the next generation to steward it. Traditional planning removes guesswork where you can and embraces guarantees where they exist. That is how you replace fear with confidence. Put Money Back In Its Place Many people carry a hidden belief that money is bad. Movies preach it. Social feeds imply it. And if you've absorbed “money is evil,” you will sabotage your own success and feel guilty about every win. I love the picture Bruce learned on the football field. Football didn't build character. It revealed it. Money is the same. It shows what is already true in your heart and in your habits. When money is your god, it runs your life and ruins your relationships. When God is first and people are second and you include yourself in the command to love your neighbor as yourself, money becomes a powerful means to bless, build, and multiply good. Order brings peace. Peace calms fear. How Media and Culture Feed Fear Fear sells. Whether it's the markets, politics, or the latest doom headline, your attention is the product. If you feed fear 24 hours a day, fear will set your financial thermostat. We do something very simple in our family. We curate inputs. We stay informed without bathing in anxiety. Perspective is your most valuable asset. Guard it. The Practical System To Overcome Financial Fear Let's translate this into steps you can take this week. Audit your mindset.Write down three places fear is currently driving your decisions. Name whether it's fear of running out or fear of missing out. Clarify your long-range vision.Lift your eyes. Where do you want your family to be in 25, 50, 200 years? What values do you want embedded in your lineage? Your vision pulls you forward better than fear pushes you around. Strengthen liquidity and cash flow.Increase savings. Build or acquire cash flowing assets. Stop relying solely on appreciation and projections. Add guarantees where they belong.Evaluate properly structured whole life insurance as part of your base. Use it to store capital, access liquidity, and provide a guaranteed death benefit that refills the bucket and de-risks the plan. Integrate your estate design with guidance.Build or update your will and trust. Write your Memorandum of Trust. Clarify roles. Draft love letters to your heirs. Do not leave interpretation to chance. Build producer habits.Study. Create. Serve. Keep solving real problems. Producers attract opportunities. Opportunities expand options. Options reduce fear. Practice the self-talk you'd give a friend.Review wins. Document what worked. Speak to yourself with the same encouragement you offer others. This widens your capacity to choose faith over fear. Typical Planning vs Traditional Planning Use this quick contrast to evaluate your current path. Typical Planning End date focus Spend down a pile Reliant on projections Fragmented accounts Rate of return obsession High anxiety, low control Traditional Planning Ongoing production Cash flow focus Guarantees where possible Integrated system Value creation obsession High certainty, higher control Choose your operating system. Choose your outcomes. Overcoming Financial Fear: From scarcity to abundance – your next step

If you've been in real estate for more than 5 minutes, you already know that recruitment can feel like a never ending headache. The revolving door, the job ads that go nowhere, the people who seem perfect on paper but last 3 months tops, it all adds up. And in property management, where expectations are high and the pace is relentless, it can wear even the most experienced business owners down.In this episode I chat with Katie Cotton who is Managing Director Recruit RE formerly of Ray White and has been a driving force behind strategic Recruitment, Recognition, and Retention initiatives that have strengthened the network. Katie has spent almost a decade inside real estate and another chunk of her career in tech, franchising and recruitment. She's seen the industry evolve and she understands why so many agencies are struggling to hire and keep good people.What I love most about Katie is that she doesn't sugarcoat the challenges, but she also doesn't accept that “this is just how it is.” She has a clear view of where recruitment is breaking down and what needs to shift if we want teams that are stable, aligned and actually happy to be where they work.This episode is a chance to rethink how we hire, what we value and the way we build cultures in a world where everyone wants different things and where the industry isn't always keeping up. “ We often get caught up trying to find the perfect skillset instead of the perfect person, and that's where recruitment keeps falling apart” -Katie CottonWe cover:Why hiring feels so exhausting right now in property management and the real reasons so many teams are burning outThe biggest mistake agencies make in job ads and why leaving out the salary turns great people away instantlyHow confusing, over the top job descriptions are scaring off the exact candidates who would actually thrive in the roleWhy the right attitude and energy can matter far more than ticking every technical skill boxThe growing gap between long time Property Managers and the newer generation stepping in, and how that divide shapes cultureThe leadership behaviours that push good people out, even when the business means wellWhy so many people leave real estate in January and what owners can do to prepare for itKylie's Resources:Property Management Growth School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/TPM-BDMSchool Digital Marketing School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/digitalschool That Property Mum Courses: https://www.thatpropertymum.com.au/courses/ The PM Accelerate Membership: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/accelerate Book a Strategy Call with Kylie: https://calendly.com/kylie-tpm/coaching-call Kolmeo: https://kolmeo.com/ Find out about our Done for You Lead Generation - https://calendly.com/kylie-tpm/done-for-you-leads-discovery-call35 AI Prompts to...
There's a stage in agency growth that looks successful on the outside but feels limiting on the inside. You're delivering great work, clients are happy, and your reputation is solid… yet you're still underpriced, overextended, and not seen as the strategic partner you know you are.This silent slowdown has a name: the value gap and most agencies stay in it far longer than they realize.In this episode of the Small But Mighty Agency Podcast, we unpack why this happens and how it ties directly to the three levels of competitive power that agencies move through as they grow. Most agencies unknowingly get stuck in the middle level, where their work is good enough to grow, but their positioning quietly caps their value.In this episode, we explore:Why “good work” is no longer enough to stand outThe 3 levels of agency competitive power and where most firms plateauThe shift from selling deliverables to selling outcomesWhy premium pricing follows transformation, not effortHow specialization becomes strategic leverageWhen you get clear on the big outcome you deliver, everything starts to line up. You can see what conditions need to be in place, who's actually a right-fit client, and where your best results come from.At that point, growth isn't about doing more work. It's about solving a bigger, more meaningful problem that earns higher value.Listen in to explore where your agency sits today and what it takes to move beyond the ceiling.Show Notes:The Hands off CEO book: handsoffceo.com/book Mandi's LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/mandiellefsonHey thanks for hanging out with me at the Small But Mighty Podcast.

Robots are becoming more and more mainstream in manufacturing, but most organizations still think of them with sci-fi imagery rather than everyday tools. The gap isn't in the technology, it's in how we prepare people to work alongside it.Jason Gryszkowiec from St. Onge Company and Ben Perlson from ABB Robotics join us to discuss why successful automation deployments focus on making robotics more digestible for everyday workers.Jason emphasizes that the biggest challenge isn't the technology, it's ensuring supervisors understand both the capabilities and limitations of the systems they're managing, while Ben explores how future developments like AI and voice control could bridge the gap from fixed path programming to more dynamic, adaptive systems.The conversation covers why skipping change management creates bigger problems than the technology solves. Both Jason and Ben share practical approaches to starting with automation, from modular pilots that validate technology and training needs, to understanding how enterprise operations differ from Mom-and-Pop shops who need more hands-on partner support along their automation journey.In this episode, find out:Why shortcuts during implementation create bigger issues for end usersHow operators and supervisors are being upskilled and reskilled to manage new types of automationThe importance of getting high-potential employees involved early as super usersWhy you need a champion at the site who enables automation projects to succeedHow modular implementations helps validate technology and training needs before roll-outThe risk management approach to introducing automation without killing operations with downtimeHow ABB Robotics' four-level project segmentation helps meet customers where they areEnjoying the show? Please leave us a review here. Even one sentence helps. It's feedback from Manufacturing All-Stars like you that keeps us going!Tweetable Quotes:“The biggest hiccup or problem we typically see is a lack of successful change management. What very frequently happens is that shortcuts are taken during the implementation process which makes it less digestible for the people that end up using the system day in day out.” - Jason Gryszkowiec“When we talk about upskilling and reskilling, it's about making people more comfortable to work alongside automation and to handle basic troubleshooting and fault correction. There's still going to be different roles for different skillsets, but it's about bringing people along the automation journey, rather than throwing them in the deep end.” - Ben Perlson“With experimental or new technology, do a pilot. Go out, confirm the concept, bring it in, test it out, and confirm it. This not only gives you a chance to confirm the economic feasibility and validate the technology, but as an organization, you can understand what training and SOPs need to look like before roll-out.” - Jason GryszkowiecLinks & mentions: The Robotics Group (TRG) are leading manufacturers, integrators, consultants, and component suppliers of robotic solutions designed specifically for warehousing and distribution applications.

It is a kind of settling. If we're driven by desires, fears, preoccupations, or fantasies, often our energy, our center of attention, is upwelling in an unhealthy way. As we are contented, we feel the settling down, settling down into the center of gravity.” –Gil Fronsdal About Gil Fronsdal:Gil Fronsdal is the co-teacher for the Insight Meditation Center in Redwood City, California; he has been teaching since 1990.

Together, they explore how childhood wounds, cultural conditioning, and internalized pressure create a never-ending loop of hustle, burnout, and self-sabotage — even at the highest levels of success.If you've ever achieved something big and still felt empty… If you've chased significance through doing… If your business feels like a mirror you can't escape — this conversation will meet you right where you are.What You'll Learn in This Episode:The hidden trauma patterns driving overachievementHow tying your worth to your business sabotages your sustainabilityThe difference between validation and visibilityWhy creative clarity often follows emotional collapseHow to rebuild identity from the inside outThe role of spiritual and somatic work in long-term growth Key Takeaways:✔️Achievement is survival with applause.✔️You can't scale peace if your identity depends on performance.✔️Being seen isn't the same as being loved.✔️Burnout is what happens when the body can no longer lie for you.✔️Spirituality without integration is just avoidance in a prettier outfit.✔️Unprocessed trauma will turn your business into a mirror.✔️Your worth isn't up for negotiation — your business model is. Timestamps & Highlights[00:00] – Introduction: chasing success vs. finding self[04:35] – Mitch's early drive: validation through overperformance[10:50] – How childhood wounds shape high achievers[16:38] – Burnout and collapse: when achievement turns into emptiness[22:14] – Visibility vs. validation — and how social media confuses both[29:02] – What healing looked like: therapy, mentors, and coming undone[35:48] – Building a business that doesn't hijack your identity[42:15] – The role of nervous system work in leadership[48:23] – “Your body always tells the truth” — somatic cues and burnout[54:10] – George and Mitch on spiritual bypassing in entrepreneurship[1:01:22] – How to hold duality: growth and grief, expansion and rest[1:09:30] – Mitch's current practices for alignment and peaceJournaling Prompts to Break Free from Perfectionism1. Know Where It Came From - “You can't heal what you won't face.”What early experiences shaped how I define success or self-worth?Where in my childhood or past did I learn that being perfect was necessary for love, safety, or approval?2. Embrace Imperfection as Part of Growth - “Mistakes are not detours — they're data.”When have I grown the most from something that didn't go as planned?What would change in my business if I saw imperfection as progress?3. Set Realistic Standards - “Perfection is not the goal. Progress is.”Where am I holding myself to impossible or unsustainable expectations?What does ‘good enough to launch' actually look like in this season?4. Prioritize Action Over Perfection - “Waiting for perfect is just a form of hiding.”What decision or project am I avoiding by telling myself ‘it's not ready yet'?What's the smallest action I could take today that moves it forward?5. Delegate with Trust, Not Control - “Trying to do everything yourself is a fast track to burnout.”Where in my business am I still trying to control outcomes because I don't trust others?What task could I delegate this week that would give me breathing room?6. Challenge Self-Criticism - “Your inner critic is not the truth — it's just a habit.”What are some common phrases I say to myself when I feel behind, messy, or ‘not enough'?What would I say to a close friend in that same situation — and how can I say that to myself now?7. Recognize the Cost of Perfectionism - “If perfection is your standard, joy will always be out of reach.”What has chasing perfection actually cost me in energy, time, or peace?What could I gain — emotionally, financially, relationally — if I let perfectionism go?8. Celebrate Progress - “Success is made of stacked micro-wins.”What wins (big or small) have I skipped over this week without celebrating?What would it feel like to pause and fully receive them?9. Use Feedback as Fuel - “Feedback is a mirror, not a verdict.”What recent feedback triggered me — and why?If I separate ego from evaluation, what useful insight does this feedback hold?10. Create a Support System - “You weren't meant to do this alone.”Who are 1–3 people I trust to hold me accountable and remind me of my worth when I forget?How can I intentionally ask for their support, feedback, or truth this week?Connect with Mitch Barham:AgencyInstagram: @beardpreneurBrand & Strategy Consulting: Work With MitchYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@beardpreneur Your Challenge This Week:What did this conversation stir up for you?Screenshot this episode and tag @itsgeorgebryant and @beardpreneur with your biggest insight — or send George a DM with the part that hit you hardest.Let's rebuild your business from the inside out:Join The Alliance – The Relationship Beats Algorithms™ communityApply for 1:1 Coaching – Strategy that serves your soul and your systemsLive Events – Get in the room where deep clarity happens: mindofgeorge.com/event

Nonprofit leaders love to default to newsletters - long, clunky, “Fall Update”-style emails stuffed with program blurbs, raffle announcements, and event reminders. But newsletters don't raise money. In fact, they train donors to skim, ignore, or unsubscribe. In this episode, I break down why newsletters flop, what you should be sending instead, and how shifting to single-topic, story-driven campaigns can multiply your revenue without adding more work. You'll learn how to replace the newsletter grind with an email system that actually sparks giving, builds donor trust, and scales with you.Topics:Why traditional newsletters train donors to tune you outThe psychology of distraction and why donors need focus, not info dumpsStory-driven, single-topic emails that lead to action (instead of updates no one reads)How to send more emails without donor fatigueThe role of email as a scalable, foundational fundraising engineA step-by-step alternative to newsletters: campaign-style email sequencesFor a full list of links and resources mentioned in this episode, click here.Bloomerang is the complete donor, volunteer, and fundraising management solution that helps thousands of nonprofits deliver a better giving experience and create sustainable, thriving organizations.
