Scott Winship investigates the mystery of the decline in young men's earnings between 1973 and 1989. He concludes this period was not caused by accelerated immigration or women entering the workforce, as men's earnings continued to rise. The actual explanation is the unique economic combination of stagflation—high unemployment and very high inflation—that occurred until the early 1980s recession. This severe economic dynamic has not been matched since 1989. Guest: Scott Winship. 2/2
You keep reworking the curriculum of your offer instead of launching it.You're designing a beautiful website, tweaking graphics in Canva, writing posts you never publish.You research.You revise.You overthink.You scroll for “inspiration.”You take notes.You gather ideas.And then you tell yourself it's “not ready yet.”Meanwhile, the days go by.The weeks go by.The months go by.And you're still inside your head…still brainstorming…still “getting things together”…still “working on your offer”…Still.Not. Moving.And here's the truth:Your business will never replace your income if you are avoiding the one action that actually moves the needle.There is ONE thing every successful entrepreneur does.Not the strategy.Not the niche.Not the branding.Not the tech.THIS thing.And until you're willing to do it — like actually do it — your business will stay stuck in place.Let's talk about the moment I realized this…and the six steps that will pull you out of the overthinking loop and into real momentum.Trying to build a business without being seen…When I pivoted into business coaching, I immediately have 7-8 clients I started working with. One day I decided to sit down, and analyze their intake forms for my market research.I sat with them.I studied them.And at some point as I was deep in my analysis of the research, it hit me.The truth was suddenly screaming off the page:They are trying to build a business without being seen. It was like they were hiding in the backend of their business.Hiding behind tasks that “felt productive” but didn't require emotional exposure.Once I saw this pattern… I couldn't unsee it. And the image that came to mind was of my dog in residency, Champion.The hidey hole: The Place You Hide When Something Feels Too VulnerableBack when I was in residency, I had a sweet little dog named Champion.Champion loved me… and was terrified of almost everyone else.So when the dog walker came into my apartment?He would run straight into the back of my closet — this tiny corner we affectionately called his Hidey Hole — and refuse to come out.She'd have to gently coax him out every single time.He wasn't trying to make everyone's life difficult. His nervous system was just overwhelmed and he was instinctively trying to protect himself. What I realized is… My clients were trying to build their businesses from a hidey hole. And maybe this is something you do as well. You're recording podcasts… but sending them to no one.You're outlining programs… but never releasing them.You're creating content… but never publishing it.You're planning and working and creating on your computer… but hesitate to put your work out into the world. You are trying to build your business from a hidey hole because you are afraid of being seen. It's avoidance — disguised as productivity.It's doing the safe work.The solo work.The invisible work.The work that doesn't involve other people, opinions, or outcomes.And just like Champion — you're hiding because something feels scary.Something feels too vulnerable.Something feels too emotionally risky.But here's the real problem:You can't build a business from a hidey hole. Not a real one.Not one that makes money.Not one that replaces your income.Because a business that makes money requires you to put yourself out there. It requires you to get in the arena.Getting in the arenaLet's throw it back to Teddy Roosevelt's man in the arena speech…“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcomingWho knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement.And who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”That quote says it all. Being an entrepreneur forces you to choose what kind of person you want to be.Do you want to be in the arena?Or do you want to be a cold and timid soul?Arena Action vs. Hidey-Hole ActionLet's define these two types of actions right now so we are on the same page. Hidey Hole Action involves you and your computerArena Action involves other people.Hidey Hole action is all the stuff you do alone:* brainstorming* tinkering* curriculum building* tweaking graphics* editing modules* planning* re-planning* researching* thinkingAll the internal, safe, low-exposure work.Arena action is anything with a chance of emotional exposure:* reaching out to someone* pitching a collab* posting content* sharing your offer* having market research convos* doing a livestream * hosting a webinarArena action is what actually builds a business.Hidey Hole action is what keeps you busy and distracted. And if you are unwilling to do arena action your business will never make money. So today, I'm walking you through the 6 strategies for getting into the arena. 1. Accept That It's RequiredWhen I first started building my business, I didn't realize what it took to build a business. I signed up for a life coaching certification without actually thinking about how I would get clients. For some reason it didn't seem relevant. But on week 3 of my certification training, I opened the workbook to the section called “Prospecting.”Prospecting — which was really the practicing of building relationships with potential clients. I read through the workbook. Feeling more horrified with each sentence that I read. Stunned, I closed my laptop. Internally I was screaming…” wait I have to do WHAT?”Up until that moment, I hadn't thought about the “business” part of building a business. I wasn't thinking about having sales conversations.I wasn't thinking about doing marketing. So the realization I would have to put myself out there like a mormon on a mission filled me with dread. I seriously thought about quitting right then. Backing out of the whole business thing. But instead, I decided to commit.I realized that entrepreurship required stepping into the arenaover and over agiain.and I decided to rise to the challenge. You know what they say… . acceptance is the first step. So thats what I need you todo first. Take a moment and let it sink in for real.You cannot build a business without being seen.You can't build a business in a hidey hole.You must take bold + vulnerable action again and again to build a business. Entrepreneurship requires you to step into the arena.Period. 2. Choose the Discomfort of GrowthThe concept of comfort zone is a lie. People think they can either choose to stay in their comfort zone, or get out of their comfort zone and grow. That's not the choice. Because the truth is “stay in your comfort zone” is not a real choice. You can stay put where you are, but where you are is not comfortable.If your current situation was truly comfortable… you wouldn't be trying to solve for it. You are not comfortable. You are in familiar discomfort. The choice is NOT stay in your comfort zone or get out of your comfort zone because every path has discomfort. The real choice is which discomfort to you want?The discomfort of stagnationorthe discomfort of growth? You will be uncomfortable either way, so all you can do is choose your preferred discomfort. 3.Leverage your social circleWhen I surrounded myself with other entrepreneur friends — people who were also posting, launching, experimenting it became so much easier to do it myself.Putting yourself out there.Taking on emotional risk to build something of your own became a social currency. A normal behavior. I wasn't the only one feeling exposed — everyone was.We were all in the arena together.And that's the magic of community:Proximity normalizes fear.When the people around you are doing brave things regularly, your bravery starts to rise to meet theirs.4. Learn How to Regulate and Process Your EmotionsThe only reason you avoid stepping into the arena is because you are afraid of your own feelings. * You're afraid you won't get the result you want and feel disappointed.* You're afraid people will judge you and you'll feel embarrassed.* You're afraid of getting a no and feeling rejected. * You're afraid you'll feel like a failure.It always comes back to a feeling. If you weren't afraid of those emotions, nothing would stop you.This is why emotional regulation matters so much.Because when you know how to:* process your emotions* be with your emotions* support yourself through your emotions* expand your emotional capacitythere's nothing to be scared of. Your fear shrinks.Your capacity expands.The reason I can get into the arena on such a regular basis is because I've trained myself to hold all emotions. I feel so confident in my emotional capacity.That doesn't mean I'm not afraid, but I can manage the fear because I trust myself to manage all my emotions. Once you learn how to manage your emotions, the arena stops feeling like an existential threat — and starts feeling like a fun challenge. 5. Anchor Yourself in the MissionWhen you're rooted in your mission the arena stops feeling like a personal performance… and starts feeling like service.This is where your clarity anchors come in:* Who you're here to help* The result you help them achieve* Why you're the one to lead themWhen you're grounded in those three truths, everything shifts.You're no longer entering the arena to “prove yourself.”You're not posting for validation.You're not launching to feel worthy.You're doing it because your people need you.When your mission is bigger than you, your courage increases.Your willingness expands.Your resistance softens.It's not about being selfless — it's about being mission-led.When you anchor into why you're here and who you're here to serve…you stop obsessing over how you look and start focusing on who you can help.That mission pulls you forward in a way willpower never could.And some days, that mission is the only thing that gets you into the arena.6. Make “Getting Into the Arena” the Entire MetricThis is the one that frees you.Most people avoid the arena because they're terrified of what will happen after the action:“What if I launch… and no one buys?”“What if I pitch… and no one responds?”“What if I try… and it flops?”But that fear only exists because you're measuring the wrong thing.Your metric — especially in the beginning — is NOT:* Did it sell?* Did it convert?* Did people like it?* Did it work?Your metric is simply:“Did I get into the arena today?”That's it.Did you launch the thing?Did you post the post?Did you submit the pitch?Did you put yourself out there?That is the only metric that matters at the start.When getting into the arena becomes the whole metric, something magical happens:You stop tying your self-worth to outcomes.You start celebrating your courage instead of critiquing your performance.And once you've mastered that — the consistency, the self-trust, the willingness to show up — THEN you can start focusing on outcomes.But not before.Because you cannot optimize what you're too afraid to do consistently.So let the metric be simple.Did you get into the arena?If yes → celebrate.If no → hold yourself accountable. That's how momentum is built.That's how capacity is built.And that's how businesses are built.It's time to get into the arena…At the end of the day, business is not built in your Google Docs, or your Canva files, or the safe little corners of your brain where everything feels theoretically perfect.Business is built in the arena.It's built in the moments when you choose to feel the discomfort instead of avoiding it.When you choose growth over hiding.When you choose the mission over your fear.When you choose showing up even when there's no guarantee of how it will go.Every entrepreneur you admire has felt the exact same emotions you're feeling right now — the doubt, the fear, the awkwardness, the vulnerability — and the only difference is that they kept going.They didn't wait to feel ready.They didn't wait for perfection.They didn't wait until certainty arrived.They increased their emotional capacity.They anchored into their mission.They made “getting into the arena” the only metric that mattered — until it became normal.And that is available for you, too.So if you take nothing else from this:Stop measuring success by outcomes you haven't earned the emotional reps for yet.Start measuring success by your willingness to step into the arena at all.Because when you consistently show up — even imperfectly, even shakily, even with your heart beating out of your chest — you become the kind of person who can hold the results you say you want.You become someone who can launch.You become someone who can sell.You become someone who can lead.You become someone who can succeed.Not because you eliminated fear — but because you learned how to walk with it.So ask yourself:Did I get into the arena today?If the answer is yes — that's everything.If the answer is no — you know exactly what to do next.Your business will grow in direct proportion to the number of times you choose courage over comfort.Get into the arena.Feel what you need to feel.Show up again tomorrow.This is how you become the entrepreneur you want to be.If you want to join me in the arena, this is exactly what we do inside of Create Your Six Figure Offer.

What do crystals, fossils, stunning sunsets, black magic, demons and insanity have in common?Our drive to Colorado does.It started as a simple trip — one week or so in Delta,Co., including driving time because we were scheduled to present at a Sasquatch conference in Beaver, Wa. immediately on our return. Larry and I had found a piece of land in Colorado that was stunning: acres of desert mesa beauty covered in selenite crystals, ancient fossils, and wide open sky. But to make it ours, we stepped into something else entirely.The land we originally purchased was not empty. It is 40 acres, half of which when looked upon resembles a moonscape pristine and majestic alluring and entrancing, yet look the other direction, and it was sprinkled in abandoned squatters encampments — people living in tents, and improvised shacks, surrounded by hills of garbage, abandoned vehicles, and the unmistakable residue of drugs and dark practices. It wasn't just a physical mess. The entire area felt thick, like a psychic swamp.Yet, the power and the message from the land was very clear: clean me.This started a line of questions and inquiries for Larry and me because it did not make much sense for our lives. Yes, the whole thing came about because we bought land and wanted to hold in person events there — yet the view was massively and negatively impacted by the encampments, not exactly the ideal backdrop for a gathering.We wondered how to fence off or hide the view of the encampments — maybe trees, or a very big fence — so our guests would not be subjected to the negative view. Little did we realize then that the negativity was not just in the view; the people there were drug addicts and black magic practitioners. It was a classic case of buying a slice of paradise then finding out your neighbors are 100% incompatible with your enjoyment of that paradise. Something not unlike the present split in reality we are cocreating this very moment more broadly. Some things are simply incompatible with each other. Period.But that realization came some time later.Some months ago, one of our neighbors told us that the parcel covered in black magic and detritus was for sale through a foreclosure sale. Larry and I looked at our finances and bought it. After the sheriff's sale, we believed the previous owners and their guests would become compelled to leave and we would have clean, clear land with some clean up perhaps to conduct.Nope. They dug in, and we had to spend months and thousands of dollars in litigation to clear them out. Apparently, landowners in Colorado have a huge burden and many hoops to clearing their land from individuals with any claim whatsoever to being present. Once cleared, trespassing is very strongly enforced with very serious consequences, but give, as in give permission at any point, even in a limited manner, and that can quickly be construed as permission to inhabit which then requires a long process to rescind.As we arrived there for our week visit, I remember standing there the first day, watching the wind shimmer through the crystals on the ground while the smell of decay and burnt plastic rose from piles of trash. Light and shadow, beauty and horror, coexisting within the same few acres of land. I thought it would be a quick cleanup because the eviction process was set and it was just a matter of the sheriff coming over and getting the squatters to leave the land.I was wrong.The Land of ParadoxThere's something surreal about seeing selenite glinting in the sunlight beside syringes and blackened fire pits. The land itself seemed to whisper — “Clean me.” It was both sacred and deep. Ancient. Yet, the surface was anything but.Larry and I sat down to discuss why Gaia — the land and the human collective — wanted it cleaned. After all, what does it matter to Gaia if those people and garbage stay there? After a million years, nothing would be left of them. A million years ago everything there was blown to smithereens by the largest volcanic eruption on the continent creating the flat topped mesa 100's of square miles in size, which is just the base of this gigantic mountain that is no more. Another million years ago the entirety was submerged at the bottom of an ocean of water. So a few people? What's the biggie, besides it was nasty to experience in our present, a dark to our light. But the message came in stronger every day: no one was allowed to stay, and no garbage was allowed to stay either.We visited the sheriff's office to find out what we were supposed to do, and they were very clear that for the process to be legal, we had to be present. Physically stay and be there for the entire process to be legal and complete. Otherwise, it would be cancelled and would need to begin over again from the beginning.Oops… We might not make our sasquatch event commitment…The eviction date was not the one stated in the judgment. We had to wait two days after that date, then get a writ for the sheriff, who would then post eviction notices, and after ten more days, go to the land to evict them. After that, the people would get another day to get all their stuff out.Not only that, but the eviction process itself was complex. It required us to go into all the structures where people were living — RVs, mobile homes, and so on — and remove absolutely everything that was not nailed to the ground, floor, or ceiling… by hand, and place it in an area they could later accessYup, we were told we had to move all the items by hand. There were deadlines, county notices, and an eviction process already in motion. On paper, it looked straightforward. In reality, what those people had in their living accommodations was the stuff of nightmares. The rooms were filled from floor to ceiling with garbage, scrap metal, dirty laundry and dishes, and so much more — including drug needles and black magic sigils on the floors, walls, and ceilings.And then came the energy of resistance. The people living there didn't want to leave. They begged, lied, cast spells, called the sheriff, their own lawyers, and called upon spirits — sometimes all in the same day. They wept and they cursed. It wasn't just about losing a camp; it was about a dark collective trying to hold on to territory, both physical and energetic.At night, I could feel the field pulsing — fear, anger, confusion, war. Each morning, I'd wake determined to face it again, and each night, I'd fall into bed emotionally drained, my nervous system fried.The Human Vessel of DarknessIt's easy to think of “squatters” as a faceless problem. But once you meet them, you realize they're human vessels of darkness — fragments of the collective human psyche acting out low-frequency patterns: aggression, anger, suffering, indulgence, righteousness. Each one carried archetypes: the lost healer, the trickster, the wanderer, the wounded child, the demon, the mage.Some were kind, some dangerous, some clearly caught in deep delusion. A few believed the land was “theirs by divine right.” Others just wanted to stick it to the man. I couldn't help but feel pity for their choices — but pity alone wasn't enough.One of the sheriff's deputies told us to be careful — that these people had months to get organized and leave, and they hadn't. They would try to get us to let them stay longer, but if we agreed, the entire legal process we had gone through would be invalidated.For most lightworkers, the hardest part is learning where compassion ends and enabling begins. Sometimes love wears the face of firmness. Saying “no” to darkness is not a rejection of humanity — it's a kindness and an affirmation of truth.This was one of the most important things to keep in mind for this trip: staying loving without becoming naïve, staying clear without becoming aggressive or overwhelmed.Still, leading up to the eviction date, our bodies took a toll — both emotionally and physically.And then, our allies rallied around us.Yes — four of our Driving to the Rez panelists, plus our friend Teo, traveled over a thousand miles to help us clean not just the new land, but also the previous property, which still had garbage and negative energies from the previous year when we had purchased it.They arrived in two RVs, with their pet dogs, garbage bags, gloves, and other equipment to get the job done. And did they ever!They arrived a few days before the eviction date and got to work. We also had an amazing time hunting for desert-grown selenite crystals, fossils, agates, jasper, and petrified wood.At night, we gathered to skywatch in the desert and saw multiple planes, satellites, and yes — UFOs!The Eviction Day ArrivedThe sheriff's deputies arrived on time, calm and professional. The county representatives were kind, responsive, and genuinely concerned. The neighbors offered tools, advice, and hands.It was as if the universe had organized a living example of collective light-in-action. Where I expected bureaucracy, I found compassion. Where I expected to be overwhelmed, I found help.It reminded me that humanity is not lost. The system — often criticized for its lack of empathy — became, in this case, a framework through which order, safety, and clarity could flow.It wasn't “us versus them.” It was all of us bringing a corner of reality back into coherence.Larry and I met the sheriff's deputies at the road and decided to evict the trailers scattered throughout the land first. As it happened, the people had already left, but they had left their trailers and a lot of items inside them. We left our helpers back at our other parcel until we were sure those people were gone; they had become aggressive in previous days, and we didn't want to risk anyone's safety.We had employed a moving company that specialized in evictions. They said they would empty the buildings, place everything on the doorway, and then we had to move it away to a designated area where the squatters then had 24 hours to collect it.Two big, strong men arrived to empty the trailers and buildings, and Larry got to work with them.Then it was time for the big mobile homes. The sheriff told the people to leave the building, and they did so without a fuss. We called our friends, and they came over to start getting everything from the doorway out into the land where the squatters could then pick through it and take whatever they wanted. For 24 hours, all that stuff was still theirs.It took about eight hours non-stop to remove all the items from the two mobile homes. The residents were hoarders — like the worst nightmare show on TV, but worse. Looking back, if our friends had not come, we would have taken several days to finish the job.All I could do was watch and hold space, as before we left for Colorado I had broken my ankle and was not able to move much or stand on it.The Weight of NegativityDespite all the help, the experience took a toll. The level of emotional and mental pressure was something I hadn't felt in years. It wasn't just the logistics; it was the energetic density. The constant whining, as the adults played victims and painted us as aggressors, was exhausting.There was a young boy, around fifteen years old, who lived in that mess. Quite honestly, he was the most positive and helpful of the entire group.My emotional body felt inflamed and overstretched. My mental field would spin with intrusive thoughts and worries that weren't ours. At times I'd stare at the situation, wondering how so much darkness could exist in one place.One of the pieces of guidance I had received before eviction day was to realize that this was not about those people. They chose to stay where they didn't belong and to live in that type of situation. Gaia and the human collective did not want them there, and we were facilitating their exit. They will be fine and continue with their choices no matter where they go.Remember, this is our land now. As a matter of fact, they went to live at a much larger property with others who have the same lifestyle. We know this because, in the following week, we helped them take a lot of their stuff to the new land. They were not unhappy. On the contrary.It reminded me that in the light paradigm, darkness is literally not allowed to exist. Cruelty, addiction, co-dependent behavior, and black magic — all these things are not allowed to exist in our lives. Therefore, as we now owned the land, all those energies, and the people who carried them, had to leave.But why? I still wondered.Well, if you know my work, you'll know about the connection between power and land — and perhaps the Mapuche concept of the Rewe (pronounced “ewe,” though not spelled that way).I asked Gaia, why is it so important to own this land in Colorado and to clean it? We have our home in Washington State, and we have the Shamanashack and our collective land at Fossil Beach — so what is significant about the properties in Colorado?The answer came — fascinating, but not yet fully understood. The answer was: “The land in Colorado is a Rewe reservoir.”A reservoir of power? And if so, how do we access it?Well, the people there were using it for darkness. The Rewe was not fully activated, as no one knew how to do it — which was a good thing.So that was the reason for the removal of the people and the garbage that was encrusted on the land.It was not until everyone left and removed their claims that I pulled a couple of cards to get guidance on the land, and two things happened. One of them was that the power came out from inside the land and rose through my spine into the world — to take form.Just a note here: the sentence “The light inside rises and becomes form” will be fully explained in my next class, The Source Code of Manifestation: Unlocking the Quantum Core of Creation, which you can pre-orde here: “The Source Code of Manifestation”Sanity in the Midst of InsanityTo stay sane, I had to practice extreme diligence. Every day began with grounding, breathing, and re-centering in presence. I'd remind myself: observe, don't absorb.When fear, in the shape of stress, tried to creep in, I observed it as an external weather system. When exhaustion hit, I found small moments of beauty — the fossil of a shell glinting from the dirt, the way the setting sun turned the desert gold and purple, the laughter of a friend helping load the truck.The secret wasn't escaping the insanity. It was standing as the still point within it. Each day became an exercise in applied awareness — all the while allowing the inner light to rise and become form.What I understood is that true mastery is not theory or information only. We need to apply it for it to help — to use it in the mud, under pressure, surrounded by chaos, when the only thing holding us together is our choice to stay conscious and respond instead of react.The Turning PointWhen the final eviction was over, I didn't feel triumphant. I felt relief — and a strange sadness. That evening, a deep silence settled over the land. For the first time, I could hear the desert breathe again. Not just that, but I could feel myself and the desert breathing together.Our friends left after the squatters moved on. It still took a few extra days for the garbage to be hauled away, and beneath it all, the land revealed herself: ancient, raw, luminous. The selenite caught the morning light like tiny galaxies embedded in stone.A one-week trip had turned into a month-long marathon. The journey wasn't about property or cleanup — it was about embodiment, boundaries, and the split within consciousness. The human collective, represented by the county, the sheriff, the neighbors, and our small team, had come together to restore coherence.It was proof that light doesn't fight darkness — it simply holds a strong presence and boundaries for darkness to dissolve and move on. We were not friends, not acquaintances not cocreators with them, we were not enemies, conquerors, warriors pitted against each other, we were the light and only light.The Teaching from the LandLooking back, the land was the real teacher. The selenite — a stone of clarity, healing, and cleansing — wasn't just in the soil. It was in the experience. The fossils whispered of time, endurance, and the slow patience of existence.The entire ordeal mirrored humanity's current split: ancient wisdom buried under layers of distortion, now rising to the surface to be seen and healed.The most impinging realization for me was how much stress the human body and mind can endure when we forget to stay centered — and how quickly peace returns when we do.In the end, sacredness wasn't found in the crystals or fossils, but in the discipline of staying clear and kind when the world around us spins in chaos and tries to engage us in victim–aggressor blame and fear.The land wanted us to stay, and the work was not done yet. There were still piles of garbage and structures on the land that needed to be dealt with, but Larry and I put our foot down and drove home. Surprisingly, our trips usually take twice as long as the GPS tells us, but this time, instead of three days, it only took two.Who stayed behind finishing the cleaning of the land, garbage collection, and more was our friend and neighbor Jay. He sent us a video yesterday and we could not believe the change. All that is left are the mobile homes and a shed — nothing salvageable but things the squatters want back, and if they are able to figure out a way to get them off the land, we will work with them to do it.And yes — there's so much more to this story. The adventure, the people, the strange synchronicities, and the laughter that kept us human through it all. Even three guys on electric bikes going up and down adobe hills! Teo fell a few times, but it didn't stop him.To hear the full story from Larry's and my perspective and to find out what an adobe hill is, listen to this week's episode of Driving to the Rez.Subscribe wherever you get your podcasts, and join us for the next unexpected journey into the living field of Earth herself.To listen to our tribe's journey of over 1000 miles to help us, click here.The discussion doesn't stop here - listen to the full podcast episode for unfiltered insights from Inelia and our panelists.

Pastor David Strader - Wednesday Night - 11.05.2025This message helps you learn how to overcome negativity and see your challenges through a faith-filled perspective that trusts God is with you in every situation.In this week's message, Pastor challenges us to shift how we see the battles we face. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 10 and Romans 12, he reminds us that real transformation begins in the mind. Before God changes our situation, He often changes our perspective. Through the stories of Gideon, Joseph, and David, we're encouraged to trade negativity for faith, fear for trust, and doubt for confidence in God's Word. No matter what stands in front of you, remember—He is with you. Period.

If you're constantly planning, smoothing things over, doing the most in your relationship while low-key wondering “Why can't they just do more??” — this episode is for you.
Booked Solid and Still Broke? Hello, hello — and welcome to Greedy Bitch, the podcast for groomers who are done apologizing for wanting more. You've earned it. You've worked for it. And you're not asking permission anymore. It's November — which means most groomers are running on caffeine, sugar, and sheer determination right now. You're booked solid — maybe even a little over-booked — and you can't remember the last time you sat down for lunch. And if you did, there was probably a handful of fur sprinkled in that you meant to blow off… but honestly, you were too tired to care. And yet — you look at your bank account and think, “How the hell am I this tired and still this broke?” Or maybe at the start of the month that number looks satisfying… but by the end, it's just poof. Gone. Listen — you're not crazy, and you're not doing anything wrong. The truth is, the system we were all taught is broken. We were raised in this industry — from baby groomer to business owner — to believe that busy means successful. But busy doesn't always mean profitable. So today, we're going to talk about what's really going on when you're booked solid and still broke— and how gratitude for your clients doesn't mean giving away your boundaries. Alright, let's be honest about what's really happening here. Most groomers? We price with our hearts instead of our calculators. We want to be fair — but fair to who? Because nine times out of ten, it's not fair to us. Sometimes we look at a yorkie and think, “Oh, that'll take me no time,” or “They've been coming forever; I'll keep her the same price.” That's sweet… until you realize that “same price” hasn't budged since gas was two-fifty a gallon. And the truth is that yorkie doesn't take you much time because you've invested thousands on the right products, education and learned the hard way. You can't hand a pair of shears to a person who's never groomed and get the same result, you've earned and learned. We need to treat ourselves as the professionals we are. You wouldn't expect your grocery store to “feel out” the price of milk every week. They don't stare at you at checkout while you scan the carton and go, “Hmm, this one looks friendly — let's knock off a dollar.” or when the price goes up they don't say “She's been coming forever, we won't charge her the new price.” They don't feel guilty or bad when prices change. But somehow, that's exactly what we do with our grooms. If you're booked out four weeks or more, and it's not 100% with your soulmate clients, you've outgrown your prices. That's not a compliment — that's your business waving a red flag saying, “Hey! You're overdue for a raise.” And then there's this thing we all do — we over-give to show gratitude. We tell ourselves, “They're such good clients; I'll throw in the teeth brushing,” or “I'll squeeze in Fluffy one more time.” But real gratitude isn't self-sacrifice — it's sustainability. Discounts are not thank-yous; they're quiet resentments waiting to happen. You know that feeling when you give someone a deal and they still complain? Yeah… that's the sound of your boundaries cracking. People pleasing isn't good business. You can't build a stable business by constantly bleeding value in the name of kindness. When you undercharge, you're teaching your clients exactly what your time is worth — and they'll believe you. And listen, your kindness is amazing, but it's not a business strategy. The goal isn't to squeeze in every dog or please every person. The goal is to build a business that feeds your life, not drains it. So, if you're sitting there nodding, thinking “Yeah, that's me,” don't beat yourself up. You were never taught the math side — just the hustle side. But that's what we're here to fix. Alright — let's zoom out for a second. We've spent so long measuring success by how busy we are that we forgot to ask if any of it actually makes sense. If the phone is ringing off the hook, if people are fighting to get in the door or have to wait 2, 4, 6 weeks, that's good right? Because here's the truth: Full doesn't mean successful — profitable does. A packed calendar without profit is just organized burnout. You've just color-coded your exhaustion. And I know you love your clients. I know you're grateful. But gratitude doesn't mean giving until you've got nothing left. I know for me I have had instances that I wanted to give and give because that's what felt good, giving of my time, my energy, my skills. I like to be liked. For better or worse, real gratitude starts with fair exchange. Everyone gets value — including you. There needs to be an equal exchange, not just being a martyr. You give your skill, your time, your care. They give payment that reflects the real cost of that. That's how it's supposed to work. You can't pour from an empty bowl. You can't groom from an empty bank account. It's not selfish to want to breathe — it's strategic. When you're rested, confident, and financially stable, you do better work. Your grooms look better. You're kinder to the nervous dogs. You're more patient with that chatty client. You come from a place of peace, flow and confidence. That's gratitude in action. Your business should serve your life — not the other way around. And busy? Busy is not a badge of honor. It's a blinking warning light that says, “Hey, you're running on fumes.” We absolutely have busy seasons but there is difference between ‘I'm busy as I'm prepping to take 2 weeks off” or “I'm squeezing in a few extra grooms before thanksgiving or christmas” If you're constantly turning potential soulmate clients away, that's your business whispering, “It's time to level up.” Raise those prices. Tighten your schedule. Value your time. Because your clients — the right clients — don't want a burned-out groomer. They want someone who loves what they do. We all know a groomer who over a decade has gone from passionate, patient and excited to burned out. They will tell you how every customer is cheap, takes advantage of them and how every dog is ‘poorly behaved'... or they've gone into full denial mode where they're wearing rose colored glasses and they're emotionally and physically numb. It's like that meme where the dog is sitting in a chair while the whole room is on fire saying “this is fine”. The truth, for better or worse, is the only way to keep loving what you do is to make sure it also loves you back. When you shift from being thankful to being valued, everything changes — your confidence, your income, your energy. And let me tell you — that's when the magic happens. So, let's talk about what that shift looks like in action. Because what I don't want you to just nod along and go, “Yeah, she's right,” and then dive right back into 12-hour days or 7 day weeks. You don't need another pep talk — you need a plan. Here's the truth: you don't have to overhaul everything overnight. You just have to start closing the gap. Start small. Raise one service that you don't want to do anyway. Add one new fee to set boundaries with a pocketbook hit. Enforce matting or late fees on one client that you don't care if they leave anyway. (And honestly if they left, you might even be relieved). Change one thing that makes the numbers work a little more in your favor and take back some of your power. If you're booked more than four weeks out, you've already earned a price raise. Period. You don't need anyone's permission — your schedule already gave you the green light. Then look at your client rotation. Are these clients maintaining their grooms, or are they stretching it? If half your book is eight-week doodles that come in matted, you're not running a sustainable schedule — you're running triage. Ask yourself this: which services are stealing your time without giving a real return? Because those “bath and tidy” appointments that take almost as long as a full groom? They're not a deal. They're stealing money out of your pocket.. Try this simple shift — add a small policy fee for things like late arrivals or matting. Those aren't punishments; they're boundaries you get paid for. It teaches clients that your time has value. And listen, I know numbers can feel intimidating. But numbers don't care about feelings — your peace of mind does. You've already proven the demand. Now it's time to make the math reflect it. If this hits home — if you're nodding along thinking, “Yep, that's me,” — that's exactly what the Price Increase Masterclass walks you through step by step. How to calculate your ideal rate. How to communicate the change without guilt. And how to handle pushback like the confident professional you already are. You don't need to work harder. You just need to start charging like someone who's already earned it. Because you have. This isn't about greed. It's about gratitude — gratitude for the skill, the sweat, and the soul you've put into your craft. So this week, pick one small change that honors that. Just one. You know, before we wrap up, I just want to remind you of something simple. You're already doing the hardest part — showing up. Day after day, you care for pets, deal with people's emotions, and somehow keep your sanity through the chaos of busy season. That takes grit. That takes heart. So please — give yourself the same grace you give every nervous dog on your table. You know the one — shaking, scared, and just trying their best? You talk to them softly, you move slowly, you let them know they're safe. Or the cocker who has crapped for the 3rd time on the table, and mom swears she took him out before she brought him? We both know she's lying but it's not the dog's fault, and you're patient, you're kind. You deserve that same kind of care from you. Gratitude isn't about pretending everything's fine or ignoring how exhausted you are. It's about acknowledging your effort — the hours, the skill, the love you pour into this work. Thank yourself by charging what your services are worth. Thank yourself by taking a real lunch break, and eating real food. Thank yourself by not answering texts after hours. That's what gratitude looks like in real life. Busy season doesn't have to mean burnout season. You don't owe your peace to anyone — not even your best client. So before you start your next groom, take one deep breath. Let it out. And remind yourself — I am worth it. You've got grit. You've got gratitude. And, my friend… You've got this. If today's episode hit home, share it with a friend who needs to hear it — because we're all in this together. And if you're ready to finally make your hard work pay off, check out the Price Increase Masterclass linked in the show notes. This is your season to stop just surviving — and start thriving. Until next time, Stay kind, stay confident, and as always — stay greedy, bitch. PRICE INCREASE MASTERCLASS https://www.savvygroomer.com/pimc

In this raw and relatable episode, Trey kicks things off by admitting he's craving sex — and it's been a while. Lauren affirms that it's good to want while sharing that she's in a deeply introspective phase of her menstrual cycle, shedding an old version of herself and leaning into rest. She offers a brief teaching on hormonal cycles — how men move through a 24-hour rhythm, while people with uteruses experience a month-long one — and how that difference can create tension and tenderness in partnerships.Grateful for Trey's care and presence, Lauren asks, “Is it enough to support your desire without offering sex?” Trey answers with a wholehearted yes and vulnerably names what he'd love instead: affirmation, touch, and playful attention. Together, they explore how to communicate wants without pressure, how to regulate in real-time, and how to meet each other with curiosity instead of conflict.By the end, Lauren's already planned a surprise for Trey — and at minute 27:00, they share an on-camera kiss that shows exactly what connection through honesty can look like.If you enjoyed this episode, like, share, and subscribe to The Partnership Podcast so more partners can learn these tools for connection and curiosity.Curious about applying this work in your own relationship?

In this solo episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan takes the reins, diving deep into strategies for client communication, drip campaigns, frameworks for business growth, and timeless investing wisdom inspired by Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger. With Rode Dog traveling, Karl delivers practical advice for coaches and their clients—from executing high-impact email sequences to structuring offers that sell and building true wealth through the power of compounding. Key Topics Covered Drip Campaigns & Funnels that Convert Karl Bryan breaks down the anatomy of effective drip campaigns—using not just email, but texts, voicemails, calls, and even direct mail—to stay top of mind and drive prospects towards action. He emphasizes nurturing, education, and persistence over hard selling, revealing real-world examples of campaigns that generated over a million dollars in revenue. Building High-End Programs and Upsell Funnels Karl encourages coaches to help clients create tightly defined, high-ticket programs ($10k, $25k, $50k+) with robust profit margins. He explains the importance of segmenting audiences and tailoring drip sequences, stressing that coaches should study successful operators in competitive markets to shortcut their own learning. The Psychology of Offers Discussion includes using urgency, scarcity, guarantees, bonuses, and exclusivity to motivate buyers—drawing on real-world tactics from luxury brands and industry leaders. Investing Wisdom from Warren Buffett & Charlie Munger Karl unpacks Buffett's two rules—don't lose money; see Rule #1—and shares how the path to true wealth is rooted in patience, clear math, and avoiding movement for movement's sake. He links these principles to business coaching, stressing the power of compounding marginal gains in practice, career, and investment. Actionable Wealth Creation Strategies Explores practical frameworks for investing in business, stocks (S&P index), and real estate, emphasizing dollar cost averaging, critical thinking, and learning from bubbles/past mistakes. Notable Quotes "Performance improves by releasing tension, judgment, and overthinking—not by piling it on." "Educated people buy more. Educate your leads through that sequence of emails, texts, calls, voicemails, etc. It's not buy, buy, it's educate, educate, educate." "Persistence is a measure of your self-esteem. Do you persist? Do you feel like you deserve the business?" "Rule #1: Don't lose money. Rule #2: See Rule #1. Avoiding stupidity automatically places you in the top 1% because the rest of the crowd is too busy chasing brilliance." "Real wealth is built the old boring way, staying the course, math as the foundation." Actionable Takeaways Expand Your Drip Campaigns Beyond Email: Utilize a sequence of texts, voicemails, calls, and direct mail in addition to emails to maximize client engagement. Educate Relentlessly: Focus on teaching and adding value through every touchpoint. Selling comes after trust and knowledge are built. Create Tightly Defined High-End Offers: Help clients establish premium programs with clear outcomes and strong margins; research top players in competitive markets for proven frameworks. Test, Measure, and Refine: Track the performance of campaigns and offers, adjust based on data rather than gut feelings, and always aim for compounding marginal improvements. Motivate Action With Urgency & Scarcity: Build "windows of opportunity," enrollment periods, and limited-time bonuses to prompt decisions. Lead with Guarantees and Exclusivity: Structure guarantees (money-back, buyback, long-term, double-your-money-back) and consider exclusive tiers or bonuses to differentiate. Avoid Movement for Movement's Sake: Apply Buffett and Munger's principles: patience, compounding, and critical thinking beats frequent switching and chasing trends. Invest with Dollar Cost Averaging: For wealth outside business, consistently invest fixed amounts into the S&P index or bitcoin, regardless of market cycles, and avoid leverage. Segment Your Audience: Tailor messaging and offers based on client behaviors and demographics for better results. Prioritize Compounding Improvements: Focus on small gains across multiple areas—these add up exponentially in your business and wealth over time.

New data released by Geotab Inc. ("Geotab"), a global leader in connected vehicle solutions and asset management, reveals that Irish and UK commercial fleets reduced their travel distances by almost 10% in the week before Christmas compared to other European fleets. However, fuel consumption and CO2 emissions increased by 9% during the holiday period. The findings, based on data from fleet vehicles across seven European countries during November and December 2024, highlight how the holiday shopping surge intensifies operational pressure on delivery services, resulting in more frequent stops, shorter routes and longer idling times. Across Europe, fuel consumption increased by 50%, amounting to an additional 160,00 litres of fuel burned. Idling times rose by 9% compared to pre-holiday levels, contributing to higher emissions and underscoring the negative environmental impact of increased consumption during the period. In Ireland and the UK alone, fuel consumption was up by 9%. While efforts have been made to electrify fleets across Europe, with the number of electric vehicles in operation steadily growing over previous years, Geotab's data shows that during peak periods only 12% of deliveries are completed by electric vehicles. Despite an industry-wide push for electrification, internal combustion engine vehicles still handle the majority of deliveries, leading to the notable increase in C02 emissions during this time. The surge in demand for fast, convenient deliveries not only impacts the environment, but also places considerable financial pressure on fleet operators. Across Europe, fleets incurred an additional €28,910 in fuel costs during Black Friday week alone. "Our data shows how the holiday period is a universally busy time," said Edward Kulperger, Senior Vice President EMEA at Geotab. "While people rush to find the perfect present for their loved ones, the immense operational challenges that come with that are often overlooked. As fleets work hard to keep up with the surge, there are often added operational and financial burdens, as well as challenges to maintain sustainability initiatives. Although the industry has been working hard to turn towards a greener future, the majority of Black Friday and Christmas deliveries are made by fuel-powered vehicles, putting into question the viability of conveniences like one-click shopping and next-day delivery." With Irish drivers making more frequent stops to deliver Christmas gifts nationwide, C02 emissions and fuel costs continue to rise, a trend likely to repeat itself this year. This presents a critical, recurring challenge for fleet operators and highlights the need for further electrification and sustainable logistics solutions to achieve greener holiday seasons in the future.

In this solo episode of Dr. Marianne-Land: An Eating Disorder Recovery Podcast, fat-positive therapist and eating disorder specialist Dr. Marianne Miller, LMFT explains why she no longer uses the label “Atypical Anorexia.” She discusses how anti-fat bias, weight stigma, and systemic discrimination in eating disorder treatment have shaped the diagnostic criteria for anorexia and harmed people in larger bodies. Listeners will learn how the term “atypical” upholds thinness as the standard for illness, why that belief leads to delayed diagnoses, and how shifting our language can expand access to inclusive, weight-neutral, and neurodivergent-affirming eating disorder care. Through clinical insight, real-world examples, and liberation-focused analysis, Dr. Marianne reframes what anorexia recovery truly means: healing one's relationship with food, body, and self without hierarchy, shame, or size bias. Key SEO Topics Covered What Is “Atypical Anorexia”? Understanding the origins of the term and how it reinforces weight stigma and anti-fat bias. Why Thinness Shouldn't Define Anorexia: How body diversity challenges outdated diagnostic models. The Role of Weight Stigma in Anorexia Recovery: How medical bias limits access to eating disorder therapyand treatment coverage. Cultural and Systemic Bias in Eating Disorder Diagnosis: How fatphobia, whiteness, and ableism distort who gets diagnosed. Intersectionality and Neurodivergence: How autism, ADHD, race, and gender identity affect the experience and recognition of anorexia. What Inclusive Eating Disorder Treatment Looks Like: How clinicians can provide weight-inclusive, trauma-informed, neurodivergent-affirming care. Body Liberation and Recovery: Why reclaiming the word “anorexia” for all bodies fosters belonging and healing. Who This Episode Is For This episode is for anyone interested in inclusive anorexia recovery and liberation-centered eating disorder treatment. It's especially for: People in larger bodies who have experienced restriction or medical dismissal. Clinicians seeking to decolonize their approach to eating disorder therapy. Neurodivergent listeners navigating food restriction or sensory challenges. Individuals recovering from anorexia who were told they are “not sick enough.” Advocates, parents, and students learning about anti-fat bias and weight-inclusive recovery models. Why This Conversation Matters The label “Atypical Anorexia” perpetuates harmful myths about body size, illness, and worthiness. It tells people in larger bodies that their pain is less valid and their recovery less urgent. In reality, anorexia occurs in every body size, race, gender, and neurotype. By challenging the term “atypical,” Dr. Marianne advocates for body-liberation-aligned, anti-bias eating disorder therapy that validates all lived experiences. This conversation helps listeners unlearn weight stigma and invites the eating disorder field to adopt inclusive, evidence-based, fat-positive practices that honor every body's right to care and nourishment.

Black womanhood is a unique and valid experience. Period.
Why do our moods shift so dramatically across the month? What's really happening in our brains during the luteal phase of our cycle? And could understanding our hormones actually make us feel better? In this episode of Brave & Curious, Dr. Lora Shahine sits down with evolutionary psychologist and author Sarah E. Hill, PhD to talk about the fascinating link between hormones, brain function, and overall health. They explore how deeply our cycles shape our energy, emotions, and resilience—and why this understanding is long overdue. Dr. Hill brings her groundbreaking insights from her books This Is Your Brain on Birth Control and The Period Brain to explain how estrogen and progesterone guide us through distinct physiological "seasons." She and Dr. Shahine discuss PMS, PMDD, and why women have two primary sex hormones when men only have one. With empathy, curiosity, and humor, they trace the science, the evolutionary logic, and the societal biases that have kept women's hormonal health misunderstood for generations. This episode invites you to stop fighting your biology and start partnering with it because understanding your cycle is one of the bravest, smartest things you can do for your health. In this episode you'll hear: [1:56] Why PMS exists [6:13] A simple, clear breakdown of the menstrual cycle [9:48] The roles of estrogen & progesterone [13:05] The Brain–explained [24:23] A little more about progesterone [30:37] The link between progesterone and autoimmune disease [38:21] Is your PMS actually PMDD?

In this episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan and Rode Dog dive deep into the mindsets and strategies for building lasting wealth and a resilient, wildly profitable coaching business. From handling the myth of overnight success, to practical AI use cases, to why most business owners never truly achieve wealth, Karl delivers a high-energy, rabbit-hole filled masterclass on how business coaches and their clients must define winning, ignore negative media narratives, and embrace the boring, compounding path to freedom. Packed with actionable insights, examples, and hard-hitting truths, this episode is a roller-coaster ride through the foundations of success in coaching and business. Key Topics Covered The Psychology of Success and Progress in Coaching Why clients often don't feel successful, even when they're making progress. The critical importance of defining "winning" for both you and your clients. Celebrating every milestone, not just the finish line. Effective Messaging for Coaches The secret sauce behind messaging: clarity beats creativity. Concise, simple hooks vs. common, forgettable marketing language. Real-world examples for tightening up messaging across niches: from bookkeeping to roofing. AI-Proof Coaching Niches and Growth Opportunities Why home services and trades (plumbing, roofing, landscaping) are still AI-resistant. The importance of not falling for AI doomsday narratives. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's advice: The next millionaires will come from the trades, not tech. Media and Narrative Management How modern news manipulates via negative bias, recency, and doom scrolling. Using critical thinking to filter out noise and focus on what moves your "boat" forward. Real Use Cases for AI in Coaching Businesses Implementing chatbots, custom GPTs, automating messaging and FAQ systems. Training not just yourself, but your clients and their teams on leveraging AI for small business wins. The Truth About Wealth Creation The difference between net worth and income: why sustainable wealth is about recurring cash flow. The perils of being overly optimistic, believing your own noise, and unnecessary risk. Practical wealth-building advice: own assets that produce, avoid excessive debt, and play the long, boring game. Notable Quotes "Nothing about success feels successful while you're building it." — Karl Bryan "Define winning and commit all of you to it... Progress equals happiness." "Your messaging should be clear more than it is creative... Big words spare very poorly in advertising." "Robots will wash windows in New York long before they do in Wisconsin. Don't doom scroll and play out worst-case AI scenarios." "The greatest gift you can give your clients is expectations. Expect great results from them and for yourself." "The best way to get really wealthy is to live a long time… and the best way to go broke is to live a long time." "Money is a game of doubles. The most expensive habit you have is impressing people." Actionable Takeaways ✓ Define Success Early: Help clients (and yourself) nail down what "winning" looks like and track even small progress. ✓ Craft Clear Messaging: Edit marketing so that a child (or your average client!) immediately understands the offer—short, benefits-driven, and direct. ✓ Celebrate Milestones: Affirm every achievement—big or small—so clients see and feel the momentum. ✓ Don't Fear AI—Leverage It: Identify sectors that are secure from automation and help clients maximize their strengths in those areas. ✓ Practice Critical Media Consumption: Cut out negative scrolling—focus on patterns, historical context, and your own progress, not sensational headlines. ✓ Build Wealth That Endures: Encourage recurring, reliable income streams (rental properties, business cashflow), not one-time "big wins" or speculative bets. ✓ Play the Long Game: Compounding, consistency, and patience win. Wealth comes from boring, repeatable behaviors, not hype. Resources Mentioned Profit Acceleration Software™ (by Karl Bryan) Revolutionary coaching tool to demonstrate instant value and profitability for clients.

In this solo episode of Business Coaching Secrets, Karl Bryan dives deep into powerful mindsets, flywheel business models, and unconventional strategies for signing and retaining high-end coaching clients. With Road Dog absent, Karl answers key audience questions and shares proven tactics from his own journey building a multimillion-dollar coaching company. Expect candid insights on how to think like billionaire founders, radically improve event conversions, leverage networks, and help clients start simple, profitable businesses that resist disruption—even in the age of AI. Key Topics Covered Thinking Like Billionaire Founders Karl explores how leaders like Jensen Huang (Nvidia) and Jeff Bezos structure their approach to business with an urgent, "always 30 days from going out of business" mindset. He discusses the concept of moving fast, staying ferocious, and viewing every opportunity as a potential river to divert, rather than dam. Flywheel Business Models Karl breaks down why thinking in circles and building business flywheels is crucial. He maps out the flywheel for running live events as a coach: events → attendees → authority → conversions → referrals → (back to) events. The secret isn't just in hosting events—it's filling them, and leveraging every attendee for ongoing referrals and networking. Networking for High-End Clients The episode highlights how to "level up" networking by moving from BNI groups to chambers of commerce, golf clubs, yacht clubs, and exclusive industry organizations. Knowing where your ideal clients spend their time is key. Creation vs. Elevation in Coaching Karl shares why helping ordinary people start simple, franchisable businesses (rather than just elevating existing owners) yields massive rewards. He explains how to choose business types resistant to major competitors and even AI disruption. Buying Ideal Clients If starting over, Karl would buy ideal clients by offering irresistible deals, knowing that repeat business drives profit. He recommends a scaled pricing approach for new clients and gives examples ranging from free first-time services to $0.01 Big Mac campaigns that explode customer acquisition. Lifestyle Flywheel and Planning He discusses the flywheel for lifestyle and success: thoughts → actions → behaviors → lifestyle. Emphasizing that planning and foundational habits—like reading and continuous learning—drive outsized business results. The Power of Learning over Knowing Karl makes the case that continual learning, voracious reading, and careful book selection lead to compounding insights, better instincts, and faster business growth—far more than just the facts you can recite. Notable Quotes "We're always 30 days from going out of business." (Jensen Huang via Karl Bryan) "You don't want to collect stamps—you want to collect crowds." "Funny equals money. You don't have to be a stand-up comedian, just authentically yourself and get a little bit better each time." "You've got to train in private to perform in public. That's Tom Brady 101." "It's more important to learn than to know. Learning is the discipline that reshapes the patterns of your thinking." Actionable Takeaways Think in Flywheels, Not Straight Lines: Map out every client acquisition strategy as a repeatable cycle for compounding results—especially with events. Level Up Your Networking: Graduating from standard business groups to industry clubs and networks where your target clients really spend time boosts your odds of finding high-end prospects. Buy Ideal Clients: Don't be afraid to make offers that lose money up front if you have confidence in your recurring model and results. Scaled pricing creates authority and long-term wins. Serve before You Sell: Lead with value—whether through events, free problem-solving calls, or helpful resources. Authority and referrals flow from helping first. Help Clients Start Simple Businesses: Guide ordinary people to launch "franchisable" businesses they can master quickly—and which large competitors or AI are unlikely to disrupt. Keep Learning and Reading: Choose biographies and "letters to shareholders" from the greats. Focus on reshaping your thinking, not just memorizing facts.
