Diageo, the company that owns Guinness, Smirnoff, Johnnie Walker and more than 200 drinks brands worldwide, has announced a major reset after a tough couple of years in which its profits have fallen and its share price has struggled. British businessman Sir Dave Lewis has been brought in to steer a turnaround, including a $1bn savings plan over the next three years. Known as "Drastic Dave" for cost-cutting at other companies, can he revive growth as more consumers drink less alcohol or switch from global brands to local ones?Presenters: Will Bain and Rahul Tandon Producer: Gideon Long(Picture: People drink Guinness at The Devonshire pub in Soho, London.

Can you negatively add back an owner's salary because you're going to put an operator in? Yes, but don't expect the owner to pay for that in the valuation. Or to take you seriously if you propose that. Why hire just 1 person? Why not hire 50 people and go into super growth mode while losing $3M/year?   Inzo Technologies: Get a complimentary IT audit for acquisition diligence or post-close transition.

You ever catch yourself thinking… "Why does this keep happening to me?" "I've done everything right, so why do things keep going wrong?" That's not just frustration. That's not just a bad attitude. That's the victim mentality and it's robbing you of your greatness. In this 5-Minute Drill episode of Coming Up Clutch with J.R.™, J.R. breaks down why the victim mentality isn't an attitude problem and gives you a simple 3-step strategy to flip the script for good. He shares the story of a conversation with a close friend mid-crisis…business tanking, marriage strained, health slipping…and the moment J.R. called him out mid-rant for playing the victim. He also goes back to his own college baseball days at the University of Iowa, where he started ahead of more talented teammates…not because he had more skill, but because he owned his adversity instead of waiting for things to go his way. This episode is about one powerful truth: You're not stuck. You're just forgetting who you are…and what you're truly capable of. So stop asking "why is this happening to me?" and start asking what it's preparing you for. In this episode, you'll hear: Why the victim mentality is an identity issue, not just an attitude problem. The story of J.R.'s conversation with a friend in crisis, and the moment he called him out for playing the victim. J.R.'s own story of walking onto a stacked D1 baseball roster and starting ahead of more talented teammates. What neuroscientist Dr. Andrew Huberman says about framing stress as a challenge, and how it changes your brain chemistry. Dr. Carol Dweck's research on growth mindset, and why it predicts resilience and performance. The story of Joseph in Genesis, betrayed and forgotten, who owned his process and was elevated by God. Romans 5:3-4 and why suffering isn't punishment…it's preparation. The Owner's Lens™, a 3-question Drill to reclaim agency and identity in any adversity. What you'll walk away with… You'll learn how to: Spot the difference between an attitude problem and an identity problem. Reframe adversity as fuel instead of evidence against you. Use the Owner's Lens™ to shift from Perspective to Power to Posture in real time. Refuse to let hard things own you… and start owning them instead. Show up with more resilience and ownership in your career, leadership, and home. KEY QUOTES "When you know you're a warrior in training who is owning the adversity — that adversity becomes your fuel." - J.R. "Pain is part of your process. It's not punishment — it's preparation." - J.R. "It's about refusing to let the hard things own you. It's you owning them! That's the shift." - J.R.

As an owner, your role in your horse's training process starts long before you ever drop them off at the trainer's barn. In this episode, I talk about how the handling and preparation we put into our young horses as weanlings and yearlings can make a huge difference when it comes time to start them as two- and three-year-olds. I also share why good communication between the owner and trainer matters, from being clear about your goals for that horse to setting realistic expectations for what can be accomplished within a training program.

On today's episode, Dr. Mark Costes is joined by Brent Saunier and Chris Sands of Pro-Fi 20/20 and Phase One Dental CPAs for a practical conversation on cash flow planning inside the dental practice. Instead of focusing only on tax strategy, they break down how practice owners can use accounting data, Profit First principles, and daily transfers to better understand where money is going and give every dollar a clear purpose.  Brent and Chris walk through the importance of separating funds into dedicated accounts for payroll, labs and supplies, marketing, rent and loans, consulting, CE, travel, profit savings, owner distributions, and taxes. They also explain how this system can help doctors reduce cash flow stress, avoid surprise tax bills, manage credit cards more intentionally, and build stronger financial habits that support long-term practice growth.

Buying your first franchise is very different from buying your second, third, or fourth.   First-time franchise buyers often wrestle with fear, FOMO, passion, replacing their W-2 income, and finding the "next big thing." Experienced franchise owners tend to evaluate opportunities differently—looking harder at validation, risk, enterprise value, territory, systems, and long-term scalability.   In this episode of Franchise Secrets, Erik Van Horn and Bobby Brennan break down how the franchise investor mindset changes with experience, why even successful entrepreneurs can make emotional buying decisions, and what every franchise buyer should evaluate before signing.   You'll learn: • Why passion can cloud a franchise investment decision • How FOMO affects first-time buyers • Why experienced franchisees value validation • The risks of chasing emerging franchise trends • What "semi-absentee" really means • Why successful owners can become overconfident • How to think about multi-unit financial runway • What to validate before investing in a franchise   Timestamps: 00:00 First-Time vs. Experienced Franchise Buyers 02:41 The Danger of Buying a Franchise Based on Passion 06:40 Are Wellness Franchises the Next Big Thing? 09:51 Why Wealthy Investors Still Make Emotional Decisions 13:48 Stop Chasing the "Next Big Franchise" 17:34 The Truth About Semi-Absentee Franchises 21:34 What First-Time Buyers Actually Want 24:00 How Experienced Franchise Owners Think Differently 26:33 How Overconfidence Leads to Bad Franchise Decisions 30:43 The Financial Reality of Multi-Unit Franchising   Don't buy into the hype.

Owner-assisted maintenance, with all four hosts aboard: Ben, Brian, Ted, and Mark (1DullGeek), the show's resident expert, currently apprenticing in his mechanic's shop. What are you actually allowed to touch on your own airplane? The crew walks through 14 CFR 43.3(a), the 31 preventive maintenance items in Part 43 Appendix A(c), and the fine print that says you can change a tire on the rim but not remove the wheel, since that means touching the disc brakes. The sport pilot exception (SLSA only), why the list is not "examples," the Coleal interpretation and what Mike Busch and others have made of it, and the practical wisdom: even when it's legal, do it with your A&P the first time. Plus your aviation-lingo-at-home tape machine submissions from the EP191 ask, and the words of wisdom every procrastinating owner needs: the small problem you delay fixing becomes a major problem at the most remote airport on your trip.Mentioned on the show:Opposing Bases: https://www.opposingbases.com/Cheese Pilot: https://www.youtube.com/@cheesepilotGita and the Calm Cockpit Podcast: https://calmcockpit.com/Mark/1dullgeek's youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@1dullgeekTL Sparker: https://tlsportaircraft.com/sparker/Arrested Development, Mr. Wendal song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcnPfHS24Pg#t=1mMeat and Three: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meat_and_threeWhy can we work on our own aircraft? 43.3(a): https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-14/part-43/section-43.3#p-43.3(a)43 Appendix A(c): Preventive Maintenance. https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-14/chapter-I/subchapter-C/part-43/appendix-Appendix%20A%20to%20Part%2043#p-Appendix-A-to-Part-43(c)Except for sport pilot, pilots can perform preventive maintenance on owned or operated aircraft.

If you've been feeling anxious, emotionally exhausted, disconnected, or like something is “off,” you're not alone. Many women are carrying unprocessed grief, trauma, anxiety, and emotional burnout after years of stress, loss, and major life changes.In this episode, I talk with Barbara Palmer, CEO of BP Life Coaching Services and author of Healthy, Happy Whole, about trauma, grief, depression, and emotional healing in midlife and beyond.We explore what trauma really is, how it affects us (even indirectly), and the emotional impact of the COVID-19 years—especially for those who never had space to fully process what they went through.Barbara also shares signs that emotional distress may need professional support, including ongoing loss of joy, emotional shutdown, and changes in daily functioning. We also clarify why depression should always be assessed by a qualified healthcare professional.We then dive into unprocessed grief—why it can resurface unexpectedly and how to meet those moments with compassion instead of judgment.You'll also learn simple, practical tools for emotional healing, including the question “Is that true?”, a 20-minute gratitude writing practice, and why affirmations don't always work when subconscious beliefs are in conflict.Barbara also introduces her neuroscience-based MAP (Make Anything Possible) approach and shares insight into how the ego can resist change, even when we're ready to heal.If you're navigating grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, or a major life transition, this conversation offers support, clarity, and practical tools to help you move toward emotional wellness.Subscribe to the V.I.B.E.

Faith-Fueled EntrepreneurshipShe left an abusive, alcohol-fueled marriage with twin boys in tow, rebuilt her career from the ground up, and eventually grew into the owner of a boutique recruiting and staffing firm that can run without her. Mary joins us for a deeply human conversation about what it actually takes to survive big life transitions while still building a business with integrity, warmth, and staying power. If you're navigating motherhood, entrepreneurship, or both, her story hits with honesty and calm authority.We talk about faith as a real-world leadership tool, not a slogan. Mary shares how Al-Anon shaped her understanding of codependency, boundaries, and the daily choice to shift from worry to prayer. We also get specific about leadership and delegation, including the mindset that finally let her step away for weeks: building a team with trust, clarity, and decision-making power, then practicing a true disconnect.Then we go somewhere unexpected and beautiful: Mary's Camino de Santiago pilgrimage. Walking mile after mile becomes a mirror for purpose, self-talk, and slowing down, lessons she brings straight back into how she leads Advent Talent Group and how she thinks about work-life blend instead of chasing “balance.” Along the way, we touch the Enneagram, DISC, resilience through the recession and COVID-19, and why community groups matter for women business owners.If you enjoy this conversation, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs a steadier next step, and leave a quick review so more people can find stories like Mary's.Resources:WPO: Women President's OrganizationNAWBO: National Association Women Business OwnersRotary of MinnesotaAllied ExecutivesBruno PressConnect with Mary:LinkedIn: Mary Younggren & Advent Talent GroupWebsite: Advent Talent GroupContact the Host, Kelly Kirk:Email: info.ryh7@gmail.comGet Connected/Follow:The Hue Drop Newsletter: Subscribe HereIG: @ryh_pod & @thekelly.tanke.kirkFacebook: Reclaiming Your Hue Facebook PageCAKES Affiliate Link: KELLYKIRKCredits:Editor: Joseph KirkMusic: Kristofer Tanke Thanks for listening & cheers to Reclaiming Your Hue!

Have you ever heard of the owner who's the manager who's been the CEO as well as the kitman? Well if you haven't, you're about to, and this is a serious conversation despite at times seeming comical when you read that out.Marc White founded Dorking Wanderers in 1999 with a group of friends in the lowest division of English football, 17 tiers below the Premier League. In the last few years, they have got as high as the 5th, just one promotion from the EFL. Marc is still the owner, and the manager. His views on football as a business, how you can prove yourself without a background in the game, and building a club that does not run the risk of going out of business is one that anyone who tunes into this show regularly will love. As you will see, he is also a massive character. Time to meet him.

Choosing between athlete, coach, and gym owner is the only way to avoid burning out—you can only pick two. After 20 years under the barbell and totaling 2,044 raw, Chandler Parsons realized that chasing elite performance, coaching lifters, and building a gym from scratch was a fast track to physical and financial ruin. In this conversation with Dave Tate, the founder of Backyard Barbell and Fortified Iron Gym breaks down the brutal transition from breaking his body for numbers to building a sustainable business on two coasts, why "all-in" commitment requires throwing away comfortable guardrails, and the raw mechanics of running a hardcore facility that keeps its doors open. INSIDE THIS CONVERSATION The Three-Hat Trap: Why trying to simultaneously excel as a competitor, coach, and business owner guarantees failure. The True Price of 2,000+: Breaking down the severe physical breakdown, torn muscles, and chronic pain behind a 2,044-pound raw total. Hardcore Gym Economics: The business strategy that expanded Backyard Barbell from a backyard setup into successful facilities in California and Texas. Repetitive Stress vs. Longevity: Why year-round powerlifting specificity destroys intermediate lifters before they ever reach their peak. The Independent Coach Model: How structuring trainer relationships creates long-term stability without sacrificing revenue. High-Volume Off-Season System: Using strongman carries, Safety Squat Bar work, and bodybuilding-style volume to build a resilient strength base. MEET THE GUEST Chandler Parsons earned his expertise through two decades of heavy lifting, severe injuries, and the relentless grind of building strength facilities from the ground up. After beginning powerlifting at just 13 years old, he built a 2,044-pound raw total—including an 832-pound deadlift and a 520-pound bench press—before applying those hard-earned lessons to found Backyard Barbell in San Jose, California, and Fortified Iron Gym in Austin, Texas. Having coached more than 50 state, national, and world record holders, Parsons now focuses on gym ownership, business strategy, and longevity-driven strength training.

The people that interact with customers day in and day out are truly the ones that make this business what it is. So, for this episode we're handing the show over to a group of Nordstrom Personal Stylists that unapologetically embrace our “Owner-at-Heart” ethos. It should be said that the people you're about to meet are some of our very best sellers in the entire company. These conversations were recorded at our annual Platinum Pacesetters Dinner – which is an evening of fun and appreciation for our top-performing 1% of sellers company-wide. We pulled a few of them aside to chat one-on-one with each other, and discuss the secrets to their success. It's truly inspiring to hear the stories and motivations of these talented individuals who thrive on building meaningful and lasting relationships with customers all in their own way. First you'll hear from Kathy Brown and Adam McAllister, both personal stylists at our Bellevue store right outside of Seattle. After that we'll share a conversation between Jaycee Queen, from our Century City store in Los Angeles, and Amanda Schwartz from our store in Nashville. But before that, Pete sits down to have a quick chat with our Vice President of Selling Programs at Nordstrom, Jessica Cloutier – who you heard back in episode 63 – who's going to share a little context around what it means for our stylists to be “Owners at Heart”. Thanks for tuning in to episode 116. We hope you enjoy it! Did you know that YOU can be on The Nordy Pod? This show isn't just a one-way conversation. We want to hear about what Nordstrom looks like through your eyes. Share your Nordstrom experience, good or bad, by giving us a call and leaving a voicemail at: 206.594.0526, or send an email to nordypodcast@nordstrom.com to be a part of the conversation!

This week Ivy Slater, host of Her Success Story, chats with her guest, Ann Cloyd. The two talk about building a technology solutions company from the ground up, the importance of authentic leadership and long-term relationships in business, and navigating the challenges and surprises of being a woman leader in the tech industry—all while delivering innovative IT services and fostering a supportive, growth-oriented culture at Deep Tech. In this episode, we discuss: How Ann Cloyd transitioned from audio engineering into owning a technology solutions company, recognizing her knack for business and relationship-building along the way. What challenges Ann faced as a woman leader in a male-dominated tech industry, and what surprised her most about the journey, such as the lack of women applicants and unexpected joys like revisiting construction job sites. When support systems, friends, mentors, and family come into play, sharing ideas out loud helps shape and validate the next steps in business growth. Why trusting herself and being authentic, choosing blue jeans and a blazer instead of conforming to a more traditional image—helped Anne build stronger client relationships and business growth. How Deep Tech's approach of meeting clients where they are, rather than pushing predetermined solutions, builds long-term trust and value. Ann Cloyd is the Owner and CEO of DeepTech, a technology solutions provider renowned for its over 25-year commitment to client success. What began in 1999 as a focus on hands-on technology support has blossomed into a partnership model, positioning DeepTech as the integral technology partner for over 200 businesses. As the proud owner of a woman-led enterprise,  Ann Cloyd  is deeply invested in fostering diversity and empowering women within the Information Technology space, frequently sharing her insights at Women in Tech events and actively engaging in continuous industry learning. She leads a dedicated team of over 30 professionals, driven by the belief that the pursuit of the right solution fundamentally drives real results for their loyal client base. As the Owner and CEO of DeepTech, a New York City-based Technology Solutions Provider,  Ann Cloyd  brings over 25 years of proven expertise in delivering reliable, technology-driven solutions that foster business growth. Since founding DeepTech, her mission has been to cultivate lasting client relationships, serving not just as a vendor, but as a dedicated business partner, a comprehensive technology department, and a trusted strategic advisor. Ann Cloyd's journey in the tech industry began in 1999 with hands-on implementation, evolving into a leadership role focused on strategic business development. As the proud head of a woman-owned business, she is deeply committed to advancing women in IT, championing diversity and inclusivity, and frequently shares her insights at Women in Tech events. Her dedication to continuous learning is evident through her active participation in industry conferences, peer networks, and professional development initiatives. Today,  Ann Cloyd leads a talented team of over 30 professionals, supporting a growing client base of more than 200 organizations nationwide, some of whom have been trusted partners for over two decades.

Is now the right time to invest in property… or should you wait?   Everyone wants to buy at the bottom and sell at the top. But what if trying to time the market is actually sabotaging your wealth?   Today I'm joined by Joseph Ballota to discuss whether timing the property market is a good idea.   And by the end of this episode, you'll understand why long-term investors don't try to pick the cycle… they build wealth across multiple cycles.   Joseph and I discuss why trying to time property markets usually backfires, especially when headlines are loud and confidence is shaky.   We unpack how property moves in cycles, and why short-term fear can distract investors from long-term wealth creation.   I share why there's rarely a perfect time to buy, and why being financially ready matters more than waiting for ideal conditions.   We look at how different markets and suburbs behave differently, even when the broader market looks weak.   I also explain why quality assets, strong fundamentals, and patience matter far more than chasing the exact bottom of the cycle.   Takeaways    • Property markets move in cycles, so short-term fear often obscures long-term opportunity. • Waiting for perfect timing usually means missing strong buying opportunities entirely. • Different suburbs perform differently, even during the same broader market downturn. • Owner-occupied, affluent areas usually hold value better than investor-heavy suburbs. • Strong population growth keeps demand high in Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide. • Tight rental markets can lift rents even while property prices temporarily soften. • Borrowing capacity matters, but confidence usually drives the next market recovery. • Quality assets compound over decades, making timing less important than selection. • Counter-cyclical investing sounds smart, but fear stops many investors from acting. • Strategic planning helps investors avoid emotional decisions and build lasting wealth.   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here - https://www.PropertyTrivia.com.au/ ·        Win a hard copy of Negotiate Influence Persuade. ·        Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report.   Michael Yardney   Get the team at Metropole to help build your personal Strategic Property Plan.

What started with a Craigslist ad and a love of food turned into one of Arizona's most recognizable independent burger spots.In Episode 224 of On The Delo, Delo sits down with Bret Shapiro, Chef/Owner of Paradise Valley Burger Company, to talk about 15+ years of PV Burger, the realities of restaurant ownership, and why Bret has never been interested in following the traditional growth playbook.Bret shares the story behind taking over the original restaurant, building a loyal crew and customer base, and eventually moving PV Burger from its longtime 40th Street and Bell Road location to Scottsdale. They get into staying independent, using his own capital to grow, keeping restaurant footprints small, navigating rising costs, and the advice Bret has followed from the beginning: if something has to change, raise the price before you lower the quality.Of course, they talk burgers too—from the story behind the Burger Brulee and Paradise Burger to the TV appearances that put PV Burger in front of a national audience, including Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, Man v.

Have you ever stopped to ask yourself, Who does it all belong to? Most of us naturally think of our homes, businesses, gardens, and finances as our own. But what if the Bible paints a different picture? What if we're not owners at all, but stewards of everything God has entrusted to us? In this episode, I'm joined by David Stelzer, president of Azure Standard and author of Seeds of Hope. Together, we explore the biblical difference between stewardship and ownership, what it means to build a God-led business, and how trusting God's principles can transform the way we approach our homes, homesteads, finances, and daily lives. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why seeing God as the true Owner changes everything. • The biblical principle of stewardship versus ownership. • How Azure Standard has built a business guided by faith and biblical values. • What Scripture teaches about Sabbath rest for both the land and ourselves. • How an abundance mindset replaces fear and scarcity with trust in God's provision. • Practical ways to faithfully steward what God has placed in your hands. Whether you're managing a backyard garden, raising a family, running a business, or simply seeking to live more faithfully, this conversation will encourage you to view every area of your life through the lens of biblical stewardship.

Weather caused studio power issues. It happens! On this explosive edition of Armed American Radio, host Mark Walters connects the dots between a heroic armed citizen who helped stop a mass killer in Idaho, New York’s aggressive prosecution of a law-abiding gun owner facing more than a dozen felony charges, and what may be the emerging roadmap anti-gun politicians are preparing as they continue losing major Second Amendment battles in the courts. Mark opens the broadcast with a detailed analysis of the tragic shooting at the newly opened In-N-Out Burger in Twin Falls, Idaho, where an armed citizen and an off-duty Idaho State Police trooper reportedly returned fire after a rifle-wielding attacker murdered innocent victims. While national media predictably focuses on the killer, Mark asks the question many refuse to ask: How many additional lives were saved because a responsible citizen was carrying a firearm? The discussion explores why armed self-defense remains the last line of defense when evil appears without warning, why “gun-free zones” failed yet again, and why defensive gun use continues to dismantle the gun-control narrative every time it occurs. Joined by Breitbart News Second Amendment columnist AWR Hawkins, the program examines how this incident demonstrates the reality that law-abiding citizens are overwhelmingly part of the solution—not the problem. The conversation then shifts toward what Mark describes as the next phase of the anti-gun movement. With the U.S. Supreme Court preparing to hear major challenges to so-called “assault weapon” bans and anti-gun organizations suffering repeated defeats under the Bruen standard, are gun-control advocates changing tactics? Mark analyzes New York Governor Kathy Hochul’s efforts to replace repealed federal ATF regulations with even more restrictive state laws while discussing similar legislative strategies appearing across blue states. The broadcast examines why many gun-rights advocates believe politicians are pivoting from broad firearm bans toward criminalizing technical violations, administrative paperwork, and regulatory compliance as a new avenue to discourage firearm ownership. The centerpiece of the program is one of the most compelling interviews ever aired on Armed American Radio. Firearms trainer Rob Pincus joins Mark to introduce the extraordinary case of Demetrio Daga, a New York gun owner who now faces more than a dozen felony charges after investigators allegedly used online purchase records to launch an extensive firearms investigation. Appearing publicly alongside his attorney, Kevin O’Brien, Demetrio tells listeners what it was like to be surrounded by heavily armed officers after dropping his children off at school, watching dozens of law enforcement officers search his home, and seeing his life instantly transformed into a criminal prosecution despite having no violent criminal history. Attorney Kevin O’Brien explains why he believes the case represents something much larger than one individual prosecution, arguing that responsible gun owners throughout restrictive states should pay close attention to how aggressively firearm laws are now being enforced against citizens who have harmed no one. Rob Pincus expands the discussion by explaining why similar investigations are becoming increasingly common and what these prosecutions may signal for the future of Second Amendment rights in America. Throughout the three-hour national broadcast, Mark repeatedly asks listeners to step back and look beyond each individual headline. Whether discussing heroic defensive gun use, expanding state-level firearm restrictions, or criminal prosecutions based on complex regulatory requirements, he argues that each story reveals another piece of what he calls “The Anti-Gun Blueprint.” If constitutional challenges continue eliminating sweeping firearm bans, what strategies will anti-gun lawmakers pursue next? This episode explores that question in depth while examining the legal, constitutional, and cultural battles shaping the future of the Second Amendment. If you care about the right to keep and bear arms, concealed carry, constitutional freedoms, self-defense, Supreme Court litigation, or the rapidly changing landscape of American gun laws, this is one of the most important Armed American Radio broadcasts of the year.

It’s been exactly one year since 33-year-old fashion designer Martha Nolan was found dead on a yacht in Montauk and there is still no official cause of death and no formal persons of interest named. Nolan’s family believes they know who is responsible for her death, and are planing to file a lawsuit with the details of their independent autopsy on Nolan’s body and the independent investigation into the man who was with her at the time of her death. Nolan’s family is filing a $50 million dollar civil lawsuit against Christopher Durnan, who was seen running naked on the docks throwing items at other boats to get help. There are a number of unanswered questions about that night: why was he naked, why didn’t he call 9-1-1 and why is there an extended period of time between when he claims Martha went limp and when he tried to get help.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
