☎️ Schedule a Business Evaluation Call with The Construction Leading Edge Team HERE – EPISODE 433: Construction business owner buried in reactive mode, watching your business grow while your stress grows with it? Working 60+ hour weeks, stressed about profit, team management, and scaling your construction company… and still feeling behind? If that hits a little too close to home, this episode is for you. Most construction business owners who feel overwhelmed assume they need more people, better software, or tighter time management. But that's rarely the issue. What's really happening is that you've outgrown the current design of your business, and more effort will only increase stress instead of freedom. In this episode of The Construction Leading Edge Podcast, I break down the five decisions that determine whether growth creates real freedom or a larger, more chaotic operation. I talk about eliminating root cause problems, designing around results, and systematizing your construction business so you stop being the bottleneck. You don't need to work harder. What got you here won't get you there. If you want to scale, it's time to redesign the system.

This week on The Fierce Factor Podcast, we're bringing you another powerful replay from the ALT Experience 2025 stage, and this one is all about what leadership really looks like inside a scaling practice. I sit down with three high-level operators and practice leaders, Amanda Siem, Melanie Crowley, and Liz Grad Murphy, for an honest, behind-the-scenes conversation about managing teams, building trust, and navigating the often complicated dynamic between founders and managers. We unpack what it actually takes to turn vision into action, how to coach instead of constantly fixing, and why clear expectations eliminate chaos. You'll hear real talk about psychological safety, proactive communication, systems that create autonomy, and the tension between control and trust as your business grows. If you've ever felt stuck in the middle, struggled to loosen your grip, or wondered how to build a team that can truly run with you, not just report to you, this conversation will hit home.

J.I. Packer once wrote, “What matters in life is not what you make of it, but what God makes of it for you.” That contrast becomes especially clear when it comes to money. When circumstances shift, and uncertainty rises, the quiet question surfaces: Will there be enough? Our culture tells us peace comes through self-provision—earning more, saving more, planning better. But Scripture invites us into a different posture: resting in a Father who provides. Look at the Birds: Provision Begins with Relationship In Matthew 6:26, Jesus directs our attention upward: “Look at the birds of the air…your heavenly Father feeds them.” Birds don't build financial models or stockpile reserves. Yet God sustains them. Jesus' point isn't irresponsibility—it's relationship. Behind every plan, paycheck, and effort stands a God who sees, knows, and provides. Throughout Scripture, this truth repeats like a steady drumbeat: Abraham climbs Mount Moriah in obedience, and God provides a ram (Genesis 22:13–14). The widow of Zarephath runs out of resources, and God sustains her jar of flour and jug of oil (1 Kings 17:14–16). Peter wonders how to pay the temple tax, and Jesus provides the exact coin in a fish's mouth (Matthew 17:27). From Genesis to Revelation, God's provision is precise, purposeful, and personal. Every Need, Not Every Wish Paul echoes this promise in Philippians 4:19: “My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” Notice what Paul doesn't say. He doesn't promise every want, preference, or wish list. He promises to meet every need. And that supply doesn't flow from our economy, our income, or our investments—it flows from God's riches. Provision is not sourced in us. It's sourced in Him. Jesus Is Our Provision The truth goes even deeper. Jesus doesn't just provide—He is our provision. In John 6:35, He says, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger.” Peace, then, is not found in financial comfort or problem-free living. It's found in the presence of Christ. When we forget this, we drift into two familiar traps: Fear: What if there isn't enough? Self-reliance: I'll make sure there's enough. Both pull us away from trust. The Source Behind Everything We Have Scripture reminds us that God provides not only resources but the ability to obtain them. Moses tells Israel, “Remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you power to get wealth” (Deuteronomy 8:18). Our skills, opportunities, work ethic, and even our capacity to earn—all come from Him. When that truth settles in, something shifts. Financial security stops being something we manufacture and becomes something we receive. Trusting God as provider doesn't lead to inactivity. It frees us to work, plan, save, and give with joy. Our efforts become acts of stewardship rather than self-provision. Money becomes a place of spiritual formation rather than fear. That's why Jesus teaches us to pray for “daily bread” (Matthew 6:11). Not because God lacks resources—but because our hearts need daily dependence. Daily bread cultivates daily trust. Where Are You Looking for Provision? Take a moment to ask: Am I looking to my paycheck for security? My savings? My plans for the future? Or the hand of a Father who feeds the birds and calls me His child? Whether you're in a season of abundance or a season of need, Jesus doesn't just promise provision—He gives Himself. And He invites you to trust Him day by day. When we trade fear for faith, striving for surrender, and self-reliance for dependence, we discover the deep joy of resting in a Father who sees and provides. Go Deeper: A Daily Journey of Trust This is the journey explored in Our Ultimate Treasure: A 21-Day Devotional to Faithful Stewardship. It's an invitation to trust God as Provider, Owner, and Treasure in every financial decision. You can pick up a copy—or place a bulk order for your church or small group—at FaithFi.com/Shop. And if you're using the FaithFi app, you'll find excerpts woven into the first 21 daily Rhythms, helping you connect your financial decisions with your spiritual life each day. Start today by establishing a new rhythm—seeing your money not as your security, but as an opportunity to trust the God who provides. On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions: I'm 65 and plan to work for another 5 to 6 years. I have $65,000 in a Roth IRA that hasn't been invested. I've heard suggestions ranging from corporate bonds and CDs to an ETF. How should I think about investing this money? I'm 60, with a $700,000 pension lump sum, and am considering a buffered-income variable annuity for a few years before taking withdrawals. Is that a wise move? My husband and I are pastors with small 401(k)s. We're curious about crypto—can we move funds directly from a 401(k) to invest in it, and is that advisable? When financing a car, is it better for a married couple to put the loan in one spouse's name or both—and does that change later in life?

What if the job you've been dreaming of already exists—you just have to build it yourself?

She holds her graduate degree in speech-language pathology and has pursued extensive continuing education to better serve children.She takes a whole-child approach that recognizes the overlap between motor planning, oral motor function, and communication—refusing to put kids in boxes when their challenges don't fit neatly into one diagnosis.Outside of client care, Rebecca enjoys spending time in the Durham community and protecting her midday breaks for things like errands when the stores are quiet (a small perk of the private practice life).In Today's Episode, We Discuss:How working as a contractor gave her first taste of autonomyHer realization that she could cap her caseload, schedule, and create a space for herselfDiscovering she is neurodivergent and how that realization changed everythingHow she began designing a practice that works with her brain, not against itRebecca's story is a beautiful reminder that private practice doesn't have to mean quitting your job overnight and going all in.

Building the Business You Really Want: Strategic Alignment and Intentional Success with Gwen BortnerIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sat down with Gwen Bortner, the founder of Everyday Effectiveness, to explore the vital intersection of business strategy and personal fulfillment. With a career spanning over four decades and 47 different industries, Gwen brings a master-level perspective to organizational design and leadership accountability. Their conversation serves as a roadmap for entrepreneurs—particularly women leaders—who find themselves achieving traditional milestones of "success" yet feeling disconnected from the joy and purpose that originally sparked their journey. Gwen shares how to dismantle the "shoulds" of the business world to remodel a venture that is both highly effective and deeply aligned with the owner's authentic vision.Reclaiming the Vision: Remodeling Your Business for Long-Term SustainabilityThe transition from a high-growth startup to a sustainable, fulfilling enterprise requires a radical shift in how a leader defines success. Gwen explains that many founders fall into the trap of chasing external benchmarks—revenue targets, headcount, or market status—that don't actually resonate with their personal values. This misalignment often leads to a persistent dread of the workweek and a sense of chronic exhaustion, even when the balance sheet looks healthy. To correct this, business owners must engage in a process of "intentional remodeling," auditing every aspect of their operations to ensure the business is serving the life they want to live, rather than the other way around.A common hurdle for high-achievers is the tendency to move the goalposts the moment a victory is achieved, which effectively eliminates the opportunity for reflection and celebration. Gwen emphasizes that celebrating wins is not just about a temporary "victory lap"; it is a strategic tool for identifying what is actually working within the business. By conducting a "success audit," entrepreneurs can isolate the specific behaviors and strategies that led to a positive outcome, allowing them to replicate those results with less friction in the future. Without this pause to acknowledge progress, leaders risk burning out on a treadmill of endless tasks that offer no emotional return on investment.Strategic advisory plays a crucial role in this process, acting as a mirror for the "hard questions" that entrepreneurs often avoid. Gwen describes her role as a strategic accountability partner who helps CEOs cut through the noise of daily operations to confront uncomfortable truths about their direction. This level of intentionality ensures that any pivot or change in the business model is a conscious choice based on long-term goals rather than a reactive response to temporary distractions. By building a culture of strategic questioning and embracing mindfulness—even through creative hobbies that engage the brain in new ways—leaders can maintain the clarity needed to build a legacy that is as sustainable as it is profitable.About Gwen BortnerGwen Bortner is the Owner, Consultant, and Speaker behind Everyday Effectiveness. With more than 40 years of experience helping organizations scale and align, Gwen specializes in acting as an "advisory board of one" for women CEOs and founders. She is known for her holistic approach to business, combining high-level strategic thinking with a deep focus on personal accountability and fulfillment.About Everyday EffectivenessEveryday Effectiveness is a strategic consultancy that helps business owners move from feeling overwhelmed to achieving intentional, effective growth. The company provides strategic advisory services, accountability coaching, and resources designed to help entrepreneurs remodel their businesses for better alignment, sustainability, and joy.Links Mentioned in This EpisodeEveryday Effectiveness Official WebsiteGwen Bortner on LinkedInKey Episode HighlightsDefining Authentic Success: Why entrepreneurs must stop chasing industry "shoulds" and create their own metrics for a fulfilling life and business.The Warning Signs of Misalignment: How to recognize when your business model is no longer serving your personal well-being or long-term vision.The Strategic Value of Hobbies: Why engaging in repetitive, mindful activities like quilting can actually sharpen a leader's problem-solving faculties.Success Auditing: The importance of pausing to celebrate wins and analyzing what worked to build reproducible momentum.The Power of the "Hard Question": How having an external advisory perspective can help you avoid "shiny object syndrome" and stay committed to your true goals.ConclusionThis conversation with Gwen Bortner underscores that the ultimate goal of entrepreneurship should be freedom and fulfillment, not just financial gain. By prioritizing strategic alignment and having the courage to ask difficult questions, you can remodel your path to create a business that truly serves you.More from The Thoughtful Entrepreneur

Joining me for the second time on the show, Nicole and I sat down to catch up on life and business!   One of her big accomplishments over the past few years is the expansion of  the space at her Cambridge location. That brought with it lots of challenges that she shares.  Who knew you had to be a realtor, attorney, therapist and more as the owner of a business.  Believe it or not, in her 8th year as a business owner, Nicole talks about how she did not go to business school or take any classes on being an entrepreneur. She's done it all by getting her hands dirty, boots on the ground! While feeling like she's on the other side of some major challenges over the past few years, Nicole shares what she's done to help her through it all.  She's adopted a holistic wellness approach to life including spirituality, fitness, acupuncture and more. It's all lead her to a feeling of wanting to give back and asking the question "what am i here for, how can i better serve"? The conversation is powerful!

Perfectionism can feel like a strength—until it starts quietly costing you time, momentum, and peace of mind. In this SNACK episode, Tracy Cherpeski sits down with Miranda Dorta to talk about one of the most persistent challenges for practice owner CEOs: knowing when good enough actually is good enough.  See Where Your Practice Stands: Take our Practice Growth Readiness Assessment  Read the full show notes, memorable quotes, and key takeaways.  Tracy shares her 80% rule for getting things out the door, how the Time Leadership Quadrant helps clarify what belongs on your plate (and what doesn't), and why celebrating incremental progress is often more powerful than holding out for a perfect outcome. She also draws the line between high standards—which are non-negotiable—and perfectionism, which is really just rigidity in disguise.  Plus, Tracy shares a real-time story from a current client opening a second practice location: how letting go of control and trusting her lead clinician created a launch so strong they were nearly fully booked before the doors even opened.  If you've ever wrestled with handing something off, sitting with a decision too long, or holding your team to a standard that's more about fear than excellence—this one's for you.  Read the full show notes, memorable quotes, and key takeaways.  Connect With Us:  Be a Guest on the Show  Thriving Practice Community  Schedule Strategy Session with Tracy  Tracy's LinkedIn  Business LinkedIn Page

Seth Deutsch is the Founder and Managing Partner of Samson Partners Group, a strategic advisory firm that helps founders build investor-ready companies and maximize value before a private equity exit. He has managed teams in over 80 countries, acquired more than 70 companies, executed four recapitalizations, and operated businesses with revenues from $25 million to $2 billion. Seth is the author of The Owner's Manual and the creator of the Exit Value Realization System™ (EVRS), a framework that helps owners reduce risk, increase valuation, and prepare for successful transitions. In this episode… Building a business is one thing. Turning it into a valuable, investor-ready asset is another. What separates founders who scale successfully from those who leave millions on the table at exit? Seth Deutsch, a seasoned dealmaker who has acquired more than 70 companies and led multiple recapitalizations, believes strong exits start with intentional value creation long before a sale. He emphasizes de-risking the business by reducing key-person dependency, improving financial visibility, and strengthening margins. The shift from operator to investor — focusing on predictable future cash flow — is critical. In The Owner's Manual, he outlines specific value levers to help founders scale strategically and exit stronger. In this episode of the Inspired Insider Podcast, Dr. Jeremy Weisz sits down with Seth Deutsch, Founder and Managing Partner at Samson Partners Group, to discuss scaling and preparing a business for a successful exit. They explore the seven levers of value creation, how to reduce key-man and client concentration risk, and why investor readiness should start years before a sale. Seth also shares how his personal journey shaped his philosophy on leadership and value creation.

Over the coming decades, women will steward a majority of the wealth being passed from one generation to the next. For many, that responsibility will arrive suddenly—during seasons of grief, transition, or new beginnings. Yet within that shift lies a remarkable opportunity for wise and faithful stewardship. Sharon Epps, President of Kingdom Advisors and cofounder of Women Doing Well, joins us on today's show to share what she has learned after spending years studying this moment and walking alongside women as they step into it. A Quiet but Significant Shift Today, research consistently shows that women are inheriting a large portion of generational wealth. One primary reason is longevity—women often outlive their spouses by several years, placing financial responsibility squarely on their shoulders. In fact, nearly 95% of women will become the primary financial decision-maker at some point in their lives. Many step into that role unexpectedly, often while navigating grief, life transitions, or new responsibilities. The result is a profound shift happening quietly across generations—one with real implications for confidence, stewardship, and generosity. When Women Doing Well surveyed more than 7,300 Christian women—the largest study of its kind—one insight stood out: only about 6% felt confident or equipped to manage the resources God had entrusted to them. The issue wasn't a lack of desire. It was a lack of clarity, confidence, and inclusion in financial conversations. Many women had the responsibility, but not the preparation. That gap can feel overwhelming, especially when decisions arrive suddenly. Generosity Is Already There One of the most encouraging discoveries from the research was this: Christian women are already remarkably generous. They give more of their time and money than many of their peers. The desire to live generously is not something that needs to be created—it's already present. What many women want isn't simply to give more, but to give well. The opportunity is to help generosity grow from clarity and confidence rather than from fear or obligation. A strong correlation emerged between biblical understanding and generosity. The more women understood stewardship—recognizing God as the Owner and themselves as managers—the more purpose-driven their giving became. Discipleship shifts generosity from pressure to purpose. It reminds us that giving is not a test to pass, but a response to God's grace. From Overwhelm to Clarity: A Real Story One woman, whom we'll call Clara, had always given generously. But after inheriting a significant sum of money, she felt pulled in every direction—“a dab here, a little there,” without a sense of impact. Through a process of discernment and clarity, she began narrowing her giving while increasing her investment in areas aligned with her calling. Her response captured the transformation: “You've given me the freedom to say no so I can say a better yes.” Clarity didn't reduce her generosity—it deepened it. For many women, financial responsibility begins in the midst of grief. In those moments, wisdom matters. One helpful principle, often shared by trusted mentors, is this: avoid making drastic financial changes during the first year after a major loss. Decisions will need to be made, but there's rarely a need to rush. It's also vital to seek wise counsel. A trusted advisor who understands both financial realities and biblical stewardship can provide guidance, and bringing along a trusted friend or family member can offer needed perspective and emotional support. Finding Purpose Before Decisions Financial clarity often begins with personal clarity. Understanding how God has uniquely wired you—your experiences, passions, and calling—can shape how you steward resources. Many women find their generosity aligned with their life story: adoption, education, justice, poverty relief, or ministry areas where God has already been at work. Stewardship becomes more meaningful when it flows from identity and calling rather than obligation. When women gain clarity and confidence, measurable outcomes follow. Research shows that many increase both their financial giving and the time they invest in serving others. More importantly, they report greater peace, confidence, and joy. Generosity becomes a whole-life response—expressed through money, time, skills, and relationships. Generosity Without Pressure Growing in generosity doesn't mean saying yes to everything. True generosity flows from identity in Christ, not guilt or pressure. When fear or obligation drives a decision, it can be a signal to pause and pray. God is at work in many lives, raising up different stewards for different purposes. Saying no in one place often allows for a more faithful yes elsewhere. For advisors serving women in transition, relationship matters as much as expertise. Listening before leading, offering small and practical next steps, and creating an environment that feels relational—not transactional—can make all the difference. Guidance that is clear, manageable, and compassionate helps women move forward with confidence. A Word to Women Stepping Into This Role If you find yourself feeling overwhelmed or uncertain, know this: you are not alone. Financial wisdom grows one step at a time. God has already been at work in your life, and the resources entrusted to you have purpose. Confidence develops through learning, community, and small acts of obedience. Stewardship is not a burden to carry alone—it can become an adventure of discovering how God wants to work through you. Some women have even formed giving circles, combining resources and discernment to support causes together. What began as uncertainty became what they now call “the adventure of giving.” If you're navigating this transition or preparing for it, consider seeking guidance and community.

And with it comes a profound opportunity—not just to manage wealth, but to steward it faithfully for God's purposes. On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions: As I prepare to buy a $400,000–$450,000 home—planning to put about 50% down and use a 15-year mortgage—what key questions should I ask lenders to secure the best rate and terms? Our Certified Kingdom Advisor recently left his firm to start his own practice. The current firm would charge about $1,000 in account-closure fees, but has offered to lower our management fee if we stay. Should we follow our advisor to his new firm or remain where we are, especially given the fees and our desire for biblically aligned investing?

Money Follows Speed: How Wendy (& Sean) Turned 34 Seller Contacts Into a New Absentee Owner Listing AND $1.1M Off Market Deal!Watch the full video replay: https://youtu.be/JkkiKtjJBCwIn this episode, the host shares a win from Wendy, a Listing Sprint participant who previously joined the inaugural Deal Sprint and followed a three-step blueprint: find a deal to use as bait, use it to reach out to buyers, and make offers on the bait or on other transactions for those buyers. Wendy reached out to 34 sellers while also attending Closers Cafe and was sourcing for a $1.4M buyer she had obtained through social posting or a networking group. From those 34, one response led to a neighbor planning to move, resulting in a call with the seller and a showing set for a likely $1.1M property. Wendy also contacted a prior client—a cash buyer with a duplex—leading Sean to meet him quickly and secure a listing expected to be signed for $350K, with the seller also mentioning openness to offers on a $3M home. The host emphasizes the mindset “money follows speed and time kills all deals,” encouraging immediate action when someone is ready to move. Additional context explains Wendy's approach of using a specific reason to reach out—off-market properties she and Sean had available—resulting in “no match, but landed the listing,” plus a $400K buyer consult scheduled around Easter. The episode reinforces that Lead Deck, the Deal Sprint, and the Listing Sprint are designed to drive activity so agents spend more time matching existing relationships and less time cold prospecting, with a reminder that business ebbs and flows may require returning to cold outreach. The host previews a potential next-month sprint focused on building a pipeline of senior owners to help members quickly rebuild an empty pipeline through a proven plan and strong implementation.The MOST POWERFUL Motivated Seller & Cash Buyer Software!

The shift came when she learned to let go, hire people wiser than her, and step into architecting the business instead of doing everything herself. Today, she blocks time on her calendar to help her son with algebra, builds her schedule around family, and chooses what she says yes and no to.
