You get asked some version of “can I pick your brain?” all the time.Sometimes it's direct. Sometimes it's a networking meeting that becomes a free consulting advisory session. Sometimes it's a discovery call that was never really a discovery call. Sometimes it's a "quick question" text from a past client.Sometimes it's a former colleague who wants to become an independent consultant.And you say yes. Because you want to be helpful. Because it feels rude not to. Because you think it could turn into something.These yeses add up. And not just in time. But in unexpected ways too.In this episode, Melisa Liberman - Breaks down the two types of pick-your-brain requests that cost independent consultants. - The important identity shift a successful business owner makes re: the “pick your brain” requests.- The PYB Protocol for deciding in advance what you will say yes to, and what to do in the meetings when you decide to take them.- Turning Pick Your Brain sessions into paid engagements.If you have been saying yes by default and feeling the cost of it, this episode gives you a system for triaging all the pick your brain requests that come across your desk.Timestamps for Key Moments:[00:00] Why pick-your-brain requests cost more than you think[00:03] Companion resource: Grow Your Consulting Business, Chapter 16[00:04] The two “Pick Your Brain” buckets[00:10] The less obvious cost of saying yes [00:15] How a successful business owner thinks about this differently[00:19] The PYB Protocol: deciding in advance, not in the moment[00:22] Filtering requests: the questions to ask before you say yes[00:24] What yes looks like and how to structure the conversation[00:26] How to say no without brushing people off[00:28] If you take the meeting: go in expecting something real[00:31] How to transition from pick-your-brain to a next step[00:32] Three steps to put this into actionResources Mentioned:Grow Your Consulting Business Book and Toolkit, Chapter 16. www.melisaliberman.com/bookFull Show Notes: https://shownotes.melisaliberman.com/episode-275Want More?Melisa's Books, Planners & Journals: https://linktr.ee/melisalibermanGet Melisa's Book: https://www.melisaliberman.com/bookVisit Melisa's Website: https://www.melisaliberman.com/Follow on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melisa-libermanWant help achieving your consulting business goals?

Tired of ADHD strategies that don't work? Here's what actually does. FREE training here: https://programs.tracyotsuka.com/signup_____You bought the planner. You loved the planner. You were absolutely, positively sure this planner was going to change your life.And then, by March, you forgot it existed.When we moved out of our family home of 25 years, I found boxes. Boxes and boxes of barely used planners I'd been saving for who knows why. For a long time I thought that meant something about me. That I wasn't disciplined enough. That everyone else got some secret instruction manual for adulthood that I'd missed.But the women I work with aren't lazy or unfocused. They're brilliant, driven, running companies and raising families. And they can't stick with a planner either. That's when it clicked. This was never a planning problem. It's a time problem, a decision problem, and an emotional regulation problem. Planning is just where those show up.In this episode I talk about why ADHD brains experience time differently, why importance alone won't get you started, why most planners quietly set you up for an impossible day, and why one meaningful goal beats ten random ones.If you've got a planner graveyard sitting in a drawer somewhere, this one is for you. The question was never what's wrong with you. The question is what kind of system actually works for your brain.Resources:Get the planner: https://tracyotsuka.com/planner Use code PODCASTPLANNER for $10 offWebsite: tracyotsuka.comInstagram: https://instagram.com/tracyotsuka YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@tracyotsuka4796FREE 3-days to Fall in Love With Your ADHD Brain training on Jan 6th:  https://tracyotsuka.com/ilovemybrain Tired of ADHD strategies that don't work?

At its 16 June 2026 public meeting, the Newtown Township Planning Commission granted unanimous support for the redevelopment of the former Guru's building into a high-end restaurant. The property owner, Adam Baratta, is working with historic preservation experts to restore the structure's nineteenth-century character while addressing its current state as a local eyesore. To facilitate this transformation, the project requires zoning relief for parking reductions and the enclosure of an existing patio to maintain seating capacity. These structural changes are necessary to bring the "functionally obsolete" interior up to modern ADA and safety standards. While a specific dining concept has not yet been announced, the owner intends to provide a premium hospitality experience that revitalizes the Sycamore Street corridor. The proposal now moves forward for additional approvals from the Board of Supervisors and the Zoning Hearing Board.

You're good at what you do. Your clients know it. The people who refer you know it.But your next ideal consulting client may have no idea you exist.That's the gap between being credible and becoming sought after.In this episode, Melisa Liberman shows independent consultants how to make lead generation easier by building an inbound lead system that helps more right-fit clients find you, trust you, and reach out already interested.You'll learn how to move beyond relying only on referrals, past clients, and inconsistent outreach by becoming more recognizable for the specific consulting work you want to be hired for.Melisa breaks down the three components of an inbound lead system for independent consultants:The inbound foundation: the specialization that makes you known for a specific problem, client, or outcomeThe sought-after mindset: the shift from hidden expert to obvious choiceThe inbound lead mechanism: the system that builds visibility, grows your audience, creates direct relationships, and keeps you top of mindYou'll also hear Melisa's own specialization example as a fractional COO for PE-backed tech startups, plus three real consultant examples using a podcast, speaking, and unattached networking to generate more right-fit opportunities.Listen to learn how to build visibility, differentiation, and demand in your consulting business, so lead generation gets easier the longer you do it.Timestamps for Key Moments:[00:00] Episode overview[00:05] Why becoming sought after changes everything[00:07] The 3-part inbound lead system[00:08] Component 1: Inbound Foundation[00:09] Two specialization blockers[00:15] The In-N-Out Burger specialization example[00:18] Fractional CRO example for PE-backed tech[00:22] Component 2: Sought-After Mindset[00:28] Component 3: Inbound Lead Mechanism[00:32] Podcast + diagnostics example[00:33] Speaking + white paper example[00:35] Unattached networking example[00:37] Next stepsResources Mentioned:Companion Resource: Lead Generation Effectiveness Scorecard: www.pipelinescorecard.comFull Show Notes https://shownotes.melisaliberman.com/episode-274Want More?Melisa's Books, Planners & Journals: https://linktr.ee/melisalibermanGet Melisa's Book: https://www.melisaliberman.com/bookVisit Melisa's Website: https://www.melisaliberman.com/Follow on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melisa-libermanWant help achieving your consulting business goals?

Today I'm pulling back the curtain on how I built a multiple six-figure product business — from launching Horacio Printing in 2014 with one dream planner to 11 years, 60,000+ planners sold, and a multi-million dollar brand. I'm walking through the Business Model Generation's Lean Canvas and showing you exactly how all the pieces fit together — and how yours can too.

Most independent consultants think differentiation means a sharper niche, a cleaner methodology, or better positioning.It doesn't.The consultants landing more work aren't winning because of their pitch or their network.They're winning before the proposal gets written.If you're like most consultants, you think the real evaluation happens when you submit the proposal. It doesn't. Buyers are already deciding in the conversation, before a scope ever gets drafted.In this episode, Melisa breaks down what consulting buyers are actually weighing when they choose which consultant or consulting firm to engage.You'll learn- the mistake most consultants make about differentiation, - how corporate buyers actually decide who to engage, and - four specific ways to use your consulting skills inside the sales process so buyers choose you first.The proposal is a formality.The decision happens long before that.You already have the skills (even if you don't realize it).

In de autovrije buurt Merwede in Utrecht ontwikkelt Lingotto samen met Blink en Nuvia Real Estate drie bouwblokken: de transformatie van het bestaande Depot en de nieuwe stadsblokken Cix Theatre en Cix City. Met elkaar vormen die drie blokken als het ware een doorsnede van de nieuwe buurt. Met een programma bestaande uit woningen, kantoorruimtes, commerciële ruimtes, een food court, een cultuurhuis, een theater, een culturele broedplaats en een maaklab belooft dit het levendigste deel van Merwede te worden. In gesprek met ontwikkelaar Martijn Bakker van Lingotto over de plannen.Het ontwerp voor het Depot Het ontwerp voor Cix City en Cix Theatre Hij heeft een liefde voor atypische gebouwen, vertelt Martijn in de podcast. Hij geniet van de uitdaging die dat soort gebouwen vormen… om het eigen karakter en ruimtelijkheid te behouden en tegelijkertijd het gebouw weer tot leven te brengen met een sluitende programmering ervan.Het Depot in Merwede is zeker een atypisch gebouw. Het is in de jaren '80 ontworpen door Aronsohn Raadgevend Ingenieursbureau als medicijnopslag voor samenwerkende apothekers. Het gebouw is ongeveer vijftig bij zeventig meter groot en bestaat uit twee hoge verdiepingen die Martijn omschrijft als een soort ‘kathedralen' dankzij het ‘bos van betonnen kolommen' dat erin te vinden is.Het Depot bestond oorspronkelijk uit twee lagen. Vanwege de enorme verdiepingshoogte van die lagen, krijgt iedere laag er nu een tussenverdieping bij. Om daglicht diep in het gebouw te brengen, krijgt het Depot ook een groot atrium. Interessant daarbij is dat de architect, Mei Architects & Planners, ervoor gekozen heeft om het ‘bos van betonnen kolommen' daarin te laten staan. Na verschillende opties voor de programmering van het Depot onderzocht te hebben, waaronder stadstuinbouw, krijgt het gebouw nu onderin over twee lagen een ‘cultureel canvas' met een food court en cultureel programma. Daarboven komt over twee lagen een ‘living lab' waarin allerhande makers een plek kunnen krijgen. Helemaal bovenin, in een nieuwe houten opbouw, komt ook weer over twee lagen kantoorruimte.In Merwede is het Depot straks het enige gebouw dat nog herinnert aan zijn geschiedenis als industrieterrein. Aan zijn oost- en zuidzijde grenst het Depot straks aan het nieuwe park langs het Merwedekanaal en krijgt het daaraan een zonnig terras. Op zonnige dagen gaat dat binnen Merwede een geweldige plek worden, voorspelt Martijn.Cix City en Cix TheatreAan zijn westzijde grenst Depot straks aan een wijkplein, waar ook de andere twee stadsblokken komen te liggen die Lingotto hier met Blink en Nuvia ontwikkelt: City City en Cix Theatre. Deze stadsblokken zijn ontworpen door Marc Koehler Associates en VenhoevenCS, en bevatten in totaal 295 woningen, van sociale huur tot vrije sector koop, van studio's en appartementen tot duplex- en triplexwoningen en penthouses. Daarbij bevat Cix City, dat aan zijn westzijde aan de Europalaan ligt, ook een van de gedeelde parkeergarages voor de buurt, net als ruimtes voor cafés/restaurants, plus een culturele broedplaats. Cix Theatre voegt daar een cultuurhuis en theater aan toe.In het stedenbouwkundig plan is ingezet op een stevige mix van programma en op de opdeling van de bouwblokken in kleinere panden. Martijn is hier enthousiast over. Dat gaat naar zijn idee een levendige buurt opleveren die dankzij al die panden toch een menselijke schaal zal hebben. In de podcast gaat hij ook in op verschillende andere aspecten van de plannen, zoals de inpassing van de parkeergarage.MerwedeLabAan de basis van de plannen van Merwede ligt een enorme hoeveelheid afspraken tussen de ontwikkelaars en gemeente Utrecht. In de podcast is Martijn daar kritisch op. Het maken van die afspraken kostte veel tijd en energie, en vervolgens worden ze door de tijd eigenlijk alweer ingehaald. Het levert wel een goede buurt op, moet hij toegeven, maar had dat niet anders gekund? Het wordt in Nederland regelmatig allemaal zo dicht geregeld dat er nog maar weinig ruimte overblijft om te ondernemen – wat hij juist zo graag doet.Als het over Merwede gaat, is hij het meest trots op het MerwedeLab en wat dat allemaal voor de buurt betekent. Martijn geeft aan dat hij te pas en te onpas een dergelijk lab ook op andere plekken voorstelt. Door middel van het MerwedeLab zijn namelijk in Merwede op allerlei vlakken, zoals social design, ecologie en duurzame materialisering, experts bij het gebied betrokken die er anders niet zo snel bij waren geweest. De stappen die vervolgens zijn gezet, zijn ook nog eens door alle ontwikkelaars gezet. De bedachte combinatie van entrees, fietsenstalling en gemeenschappelijke ruimtes komt straks overal in de buurt terug. Een succesfactor was daarbij dat via het MerwedeLab de ambitie gedurende het proces is opgeschroefd zonder de betrokken ontwikkelaars daarbij te dwingen dit toe te passen. Het was een stimulerend proces. Deze podcast wordt mede mogelijk gemaakt door AGC. Halverwege deze podcast vertelt Anton Peters van AGC over hun team International Building Projects, dat ondersteuning biedt aan architectenbureaus die over de grens werken.Het beeld bij de podcast toont links Cix Theatre en rechts Cix City.

When you think about your revenue goal for this year, what's the first thought that runs through your head?For most independent consultants it's some version of "I hope I can make it happen" or "I'm trying to make it happen."If you're like most of us, you don't even know you're thinking it.It's subconscious.And it's the reason your consulting business keeps plateauing, even when your strategy, your offers, and your effort all look right on paper.In this episode, Melisa walks through the three belief stages every independent consultant operates from.Doubtful. Hopeful. Inevitable.You'll hear what each one sounds like in your own head, the impact each one has on your pipeline and pricing, and how to tell which stage you're in right now.You'll also hear three real examples.Sarah, who set a 500K goal from a hopeful place and got herself to a 625K run rate once she stopped asking her business to prove it was possible first.Colin, who replaced a referral-dependent pipeline with speaking and three conversations a week. Same work, different headspace.And Amy, who shifted from day rates to value-based pricing in ten minutes a day.If you've been telling yourself you need a better strategy, you should listen to this one first.The strategy isn't the ceiling.The way you're thinking about your goal is.What you will learn in this episode:[00:05] - The first thought that reveals how you are approaching your consulting goals[02:00] - What separates consultants who hit their numbers from those who stay stuck[03:05] - Companion resource: Business Brain Journal[05:00] - The three belief stages: doubtful, hopeful, and inevitable[07:00] - How doubtful thinking creates inconsistent revenue and watered-down action[09:30] - Why hopeful thinking still creates consulting business plateaus[11:45] - What an inevitability mindset sounds like[13:00] - How to identify your belief stage across goals, sales, pipeline, and pricing[16:30] - Goal setting example: turning a $500K goal into consistent $50K months[22:30] - Pipeline example: moving from word-of-mouth dependency to lead generation ownership[26:00] - Pricing example: raising rates and moving toward value-based pricing[31:00] - The inevitability test for independent consultants[34:30] - How to add inevitability thinking into your business owner routineTune in to Episode 272 for a practical look at how to make success inevitable as an independent consultant, so you can stop operating from hope and start building from certainty.Resources Mentioned:Companion Resource: Check out Melisa's Business Brain JournalFull Show Noteshttps://shownotes.melisaliberman.com/episode-272Want More?• Melisa's Books, Planners & Journals: https://linktr.ee/melisaliberman• Get Melisa's Book: https://www.melisaliberman.com/book• Visit Melisa's Website: https://www.melisaliberman.com/ • Follow on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melisa-libermanWant help achieving your consulting business goals?

“What's Buggin' You” segment for Thursday 5-28-26

In this episode of the Trend Talk podcast, a companion series for the 2026 Trend Report for Planners, Joe DeAngelis, AICP, research manager at the American Planning Association (APA), chats with author and professor Tom Sanchez, AICP. The two engage in a thoughtful discussion about the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence (AI) technology and planning, reflecting on the unpredictability of the future, the importance of learning from past trends, and the need for planners to remain both cautious and open-minded. The conversation emphasizes embracing uncertainty, leveraging intelligence to adapt and innovate, and the value of collaboration. The 2026 Trend Report for Planners is created by APA in partnership with the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy.

If you've ever bought a planner and you just can't seem to stick to it. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, constantly behind, or like everyone else somehow got the instruction manual for life except you — this episode is for you. One of my most asked questions is ‘Steph, how do you do it all? How do you plan your week? How do you have everything running so smoothly?’ From the outside, it looks like everything does run smoothly. But to be honest, it hasn’t been easy. I've had to go through trial and error to create the systems that work, because in reality I’m a hot mess, and the way my brain works is very different. In this episode I share: I’m breaking down the exact planning system that keeps my life, business, kids, and chaotic brain functioning without completely falling apart. I talk brain dumps, priority blindness, Google Calendar hacks, the “top three + quick three” method, meal planning, habit tracking, and why your planner should work with your brain, not against it. I’ll also share how I use AI and automation to save hours every week (including the AI assistant I built called Dobby), why your nightly “handover document” might change your life, and the reason most planners fail people with messy minds. Because getting organised isn’t about becoming perfect. It’s about building systems that make life feel lighter. … Episode Links: Submit your Hot Mess Hotline question here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeUnWTcPntVMCQrdu2wSFqFHEnQkggznr_23Ux9zDBNvlh78g/viewform?usp=publish-editor Shop 2026 Planners: https://www.stephpaseplanners.com.au/collections/planners Shop Planner Stickers: https://www.stephpaseplanners.com.au/collections/sticker-packs Shop Magnet Planners: https://www.stephpaseplanners.com.au/collections/planner-magnets Shop Highlighters: https://www.stephpaseplanners.com.au/collections/magnetic-markers/products/pastel-highlighter-pack Steph’s Amazon Storefront: https://www.amazon.com.au/shop/justanothermummyblog/list/17TTU785IMM53 … Follow Stephing Up I’m Steph Pase, your (somewhat) organised bestie in your ears.

Drawing from her latest book, Representing Landscapes: Visualizing Climate Action, Nadia explores how drawings, mapping, and storytelling can help communities better understand environmental change and imagine more hopeful futures. “Visualization isn't just representational, it's an instrument.” Nadia reflects on how her early interest in architecture evolved into a fascination with public spaces, environmental systems, and the larger ecological forces shaping cities and landscapes. Over time, this led her toward a career focused on visual communication in landscape architecture and climate adaptation. The conversation also traces the origins of Nadia's influential Representing Landscapes book series, which began nearly 15 years ago as a response to a gap in design education. At the time, students had limited access to examples of innovative representation techniques for wetlands, infrastructure, public spaces, and complex ecological systems. “How do we make invisible systems visible?” How do we make invisible systems visible? A central theme of the episode is that effective climate action depends on effective communication. Nadia explains that many of the most important environmental systems such as hydrology, biodiversity, sea level rise, and ecological change are often hidden from public view. “A strong design that isn't understood can never be realized. Make your drawings compelling!” Nadia highlights several international firms featured in Nadia's book, including Stoss Landscape Urbanism, SCAPE Studio, and Felixx Landscape Architects & Planners, whose visualizations help communicate climate adaptation, biodiversity, and resilient futures in compelling and accessible ways. Nadia also discusses the growing importance of: • Nature-based solutions • Green infrastructure • GIS and geospatial mapping • Artificial intelligence and predictive modeling • Collaboration across disciplines A recurring theme throughout the conversation is the need to move beyond fear-based climate narratives and instead communicate optimistic and achievable futures. For designers, planners, and citizens alike, Nadia encourages people to become stronger storytellers - making climate futures visible through drawings, maps, design work, and public engagement. Book Recommendations from Nadia Amoroso • Projective Ecologies – Chris Reed & Nina-Marie Lister • Landscape Urbanism Reader – Charles Waldheim • Taking Measures Across the American Landscape – James Corner & Alex MacLean A Call to Action “Make climate futures visible.” Nadia's message is ultimately about communication, collaboration, and imagination. Whether through design, policy, or public engagement, she believes we must become better at visualizing and communicating positive environmental futures.

Why isn't your independent consulting business consistently generating $500K per year?It's not the economy. It's not because the market is getting more saturated with consultants. It's not because AI is replacing your expertise. And it's not because you're not good at business development.If it's not these things, what is it?In her work with independent consultants, Melisa consistently sees 5 themes that prevent consultants from consistently generating 500k (and beyond).In this episode, Melisa breaks down the five hidden blockers that keep independent consultants stuck below the $500K revenue mark.You'll learn why your current revenue ceiling is not random.This is not a generic “scale your business” conversation.

PIPs have a bad reputation.And usually for good reason. In corporate, a PIP was rarely about improvement. It was a paper trail.But strip away that baggage and the core idea is sound: here's where performance is falling short, here's what good looks like, here's the plan.As an independent consultant, that's exactly what you need. And you're the only one who can give it to yourself.In this episode, Melisa Liberman introduces the PIP Technique: a self-directed performance improvement plan built for independent consultants.You're excellent at delivering the work you sell. But if you're like most consultants, lead gen, sales, follow-up, and business development? Those are a different story.You're underperforming in at least one of these areas. You know it. The question isn't whether you should fix it. It's figuring out which part to fix first.That's what the PIP Technique does. It helps you identify which role in your business is falling short. CEO. CRO. Marketer. Sales development rep. Consultant delivering the work.And then it gives you a structure to actually do something about it.In this episode, you'll learn how to rate your own performance across those roles, choose the highest-impact area to improve, and build a 90-day plan with clear milestones and feedback loops that hold you accountable when the work gets uncomfortable.No one is going to hand you this plan. That's the point.You're the one who sees the gap. You're the one who builds the plan. And this episode shows you exactly how.Timestamps for Key Moments:[00:00] What a PIP is and why independent consultants should use one[05:00] The client story that inspired the PIP Technique[07:35] How the Consultant's Business Health Check helps you find your baseline[09:50] Five reasons a PIP improves consulting business performance[14:10] Why separating yourself from your business changes how you lead[16:05] How to rate yourself as CEO, CRO, CMO, SDR, and consultant[19:00] How to decide which business role needs a PIP[21:15] How to create your PIP from the manager lens[24:45] How to approach your PIP from the employee lens[28:10] Mistakes to avoid when improving your consulting performance[32:00] How to put the PIP Technique into action over the next 90 days                  [34:50] How to create more client conversations starting todayResources Mentioned:Companion Resource: Take the Independent Consultant's Business Health Check: www.icassessment.com   Related Podcast Episode: Episode 233 - The Big Leadership Mistake Independent Consultants Make, https://shownotes.melisaliberman.com/episode-233 Related Podcast Episode: Episode 234 - The #1 Management Mistake Independent Consultants Make, https://shownotes.melisaliberman.com/episode-234/Full Show Noteshttps://shownotes.melisaliberman.com/episode-269Want More?• Melisa's Books, Planners & Journals: https://linktr.ee/melisaliberman• Get Melisa's Book: https://www.melisaliberman.com/book• Visit Melisa's Website: https://www.melisaliberman.com/ • Follow on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/Want help achieving your consulting business goals?

If your pipeline is weak, it's easy to assume your messaging is the problem.So you tweak your positioning. Rewrite your offers. Refine your niche. Rework your elevator pitch.And still… no predictable flow of ideal clients.This episode breaks down why “fixing your messaging” is often the wrong focus and how it keeps you stuck in analysis instead of creating real opportunities.You'll learn how to tell if messaging is actually your bottleneck or if you're avoiding the real issue that drives pipeline growth.What you'll learn:Why “I need better messaging” is the most common (and misleading) diagnosisThe messaging refinement loop and how it delays revenueThe real reason your pipeline isn't convertingThe two factors that consistently create qualified client opportunitiesHow to diagnose: messaging problem vs. conversation problemWhen messaging actually does need fixing (and how to do it fast)A simple rule to stop overworking your messagingHow to start more client conversations immediatelyIf you've been stuck refining instead of landing new clients, this will help you redirect your focus and build momentum.Timestamps for Key Moments: [03:15] – Why consultants default to “I need better messaging” [08:20] – The messaging refinement loop and how it stalls your pipeline [14:10] – The real belief keeping you stuck (and why it feels logical) [21:30] – The 2 factors that actually create a consistent consulting pipeline [25:00] – How to diagnose: messaging problem vs. conversation problem [30:05] – When messaging does need fixing (rare, but important) [32:40] – The 90-minute messaging rule [34:50] – How to create more client conversations starting todayResources Mentioned:Companion Resource: Read Chapter 6 in Melisa's book, Grow Your Consulting Business: The 14-Step Roadmap to Make Your Independent Consulting Goals a Reality, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CSXJBGVB Full Show Noteshttps://shownotes.melisaliberman.com/episode-268Want More?• Melisa's Books, Planners & Journals: https://linktr.ee/melisaliberman• Get Melisa's Book: https://www.melisaliberman.com/book• Visit Melisa's Website: https://www.melisaliberman.com/ • Follow on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melisa-libermanWant help achieving your consulting business goals?

Frazer James aren't looking for every candidate. They're looking for A++ people.Check out the jobs and book a meeting with James Mackay today!!And if that's you, or if you're also interested in attracting some of the industry's best talent, then this episode was made for you.In this week's episode of Financial Planner Life, Sam Oakes is joined by James Mackay, co-founder of Frazer James, to find out what a firm that's serious about attracting exceptional talent actually looks like from the inside.James and Chris Hindle built Frazer James from scratch, with no clients or referrals, and today it's growing at 40% year on year. The reason? A founding philosophy that is rarely brought to fruition: build the business you'd actually want to work for.He breaks down exactly what that means in practice. Explaining the five-stage career framework inside every role. The benefits package, which includes a four-month paid sabbatical, a 5% personal growth allowance and up to three months working abroad. Plus, the associate financial planner pathway, a carefully designed development programme that actually delivers on what most firms only promise.The episode's key takeaways

Last week, we talked about the danger of living like we're in control, making plans without acknowledging God. This week, James takes it a step further.In James 5:1–6, we're confronted with a sobering truth: it's not just our plans that can reflect pride… it's our possessions too.This passage isn't about condemning wealth, it's about exposing hearts that trust in it, cling to it, or use it unjustly. Through strong and vivid language, James reminds us that everything we have is temporary, and we will one day give an account for how we stewarded it and treated others because of it.In this episode, we walk verse by verse through this warning and ask the honest question: What am I doing with what God has given me?If you've ever struggled with comparison, control, or finding security in what you have, this conversation will challenge and encourage you to live with eternity in view.PS: Loving the podcast?Take a few minutes and let us know by leaving a rating or review so we can keep providing free content to help you.Episode Resources: Shop The Finding Freedom Co.

In explosive legal filings, the DOJ indicted the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) on multiple counts of wire fraud and money laundering – accusing the anti-racism organization of secretly paying millions of donor dollars to KKK leaders, white nationalists, and even organizers of the infamous 2017 Charlottesville rally. Acting U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche stated that the SPLC was “manufacturing the extremism it purports to oppose by paying sources to stoke racial hatred.” The documents contain many examples, including allegations of $270,000 paid to a source that “made racist postings under the supervision of the SPLC” and an informant who was paid over $1,000,000 after stealing 25 boxes of documents from another extremist organization – with full support of his high-level SPLC contact.

You built a consulting business that makes money. But somewhere along the way, it stopped feeling like the business you actually wanted to run. Less-fulfilling work. Underpaying engagements. A schedule you don't fully control.In this episode of the Grow Your Independent Consulting Business podcast, Melisa Liberman breaks down what she calls a “Franken-Business.” This is the consulting business you accidentally create when you keep saying yes to whatever comes your way. Referrals. Execution heavy projects. Underpriced engagements. Clients who treat you like an employee. Work that pays the bills but slowly pulls you away from the business you intended to build.For independent consultants, this is one of the most common reasons business growth feels harder than it should. You may be utilized, but not fulfilled. Profitable, but underpaid. In demand, but for the wrong type of work. Busy, but without the autonomy you expected when you left corporate.If you're an independent consultant who wants to reposition your consulting business, such as moving from execution to advisory work, raising your consulting fees, protecting your calendar, or building a more sustainable consulting business model, this episode will show you where to start.Melisa walks you through a 3-part framework to evolve out of your Franken-Business without starting over. You'll learn how to decide what your ideal consulting business actually looks like, commit to making that business work, and protect your decision with clear filters and non-negotiables.You do not need to burn your business down.You need to stop letting misaligned opportunities build your business for you.Timestamps for Key Moments:[05:00] What a Franken business is and how independent consultants accidentally build one[07:00] How small consulting business compromises turn into your default business model[11:00] Why your clients may have designed your consulting business for you[16:00] The hidden cost of staying in misaligned consulting work[20:00] Why fear keeps consultants stuck in the wrong offers, clients, and pricing[23:00] Step 1: Decide what your ideal consulting business model looks like[30:00] Step 2: Commit by asking, “How will I make this work?”[33:00] Step 3: Protect your business with filters and non negotiables[37:00] Questions to help you evolve your consulting business nowResources Mentioned:Companion Resource: Read Chapter 8 in Melisa's book, Grow Your Consulting Business: The 14-Step Roadmap to Make Your Independent Consulting Goals a Reality, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CSXJBGVB Full Show Noteshttps://shownotes.melisaliberman.com/episode-267Want More?• Melisa's Books, Planners & Journals: https://linktr.ee/melisaliberman• Get Melisa's Book: https://www.melisaliberman.com/book• Visit Melisa's Website: https://www.melisaliberman.com/ • Follow on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melisa-libermanWant help achieving your consulting business goals?

Most independent consultants who want to work fewer hours assume that by working less, they'll earn less.That assumption is incorrect.But it's also deeply wired in.In this episode, Melisa breaks down why the 40-plus-hour default is so hard to shake, how it shapes your consulting business decisions without you realizing it, and what it actually takes to change it without tanking your income.You didn't leave corporate to rebuild the same 40-50+-hour week. This episode is about fixing that, so you have true flexibility.You'll walk away with the four-part shift required to make fewer hours sustainable: the mindset change, the business model redesign, the transition strategy, and how to catch the old patterns before they pull you back.If you've told yourself you'll work less once things settle down (but that time never comes), this episode is for you.Timestamps for Key Moments:[02:20] Why working fewer than 40 hours does not have to mean sacrificing revenue[05:30] The hidden mindset trap that keeps consultants tying time to money[08:05] Real examples of what a 30 hour work week can look like in practice[11:10] Why your mindset has to shift before your schedule can[18:20] How to define a 30 hour business model that supports your revenue goals[20:05] A simple effective rate exercise to pressure test your model[24:05] The transition process for making a lower hour work week your new normal[27:10] How to catch old habits before they pull you back into overworkingTune in to Episode 266 for a practical roadmap to help you work fewer hours, stop defaulting to corporate work patterns, and build a consulting business that supports both your income goals and your life.Resources Mentioned:Companion Resource: Read Chapter 14 in Melisa's book, Grow Your Consulting Business: The 14-Step Roadmap to Make Your Independent Consulting Goals a Reality, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CSXJBGVB Full Show Noteshttps://shownotes.melisaliberman.com/episode-266Mentioned in this Episode: Episode 259: The 5 Ways to Increase Your Consulting Capacity Without Working More, https://shownotes.melisaliberman.com/episode-259/   Want More?• Melisa's Books, Planners & Journals: https://linktr.ee/melisaliberman• Get Melisa's Book: https://www.melisaliberman.com/book• Visit Melisa's Website: https://www.melisaliberman.com/ • Follow on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melisa-libermanWant help achieving your consulting business goals?

Struggling to get consistent clients as an independent consultant? Still relying on your network and hoping work shows up?This episode shows you a smarter way to get clients and build a reliable, repeatable pipeline.Most consultants aren't short on expertise. They're short on a clear, intentional approach to lead generation. Instead, they rely on referrals, past relationships, or the occasional inbound request and call it a strategy.That works. Until it doesn't.In this episode, Melisa breaks down the 8 lead generation pathways available to independent consultants and how to choose the right one based on your business, your clients, and what you will actually follow through on consistently.You don't need to do all eight. You need to stop being vague about how you get clients and start building a system that works on purpose.Melisa organizes these pathways into three categories. Relationship based, channel based, and visibility based. Because the real issue is not a lack of options. It is a lack of clarity and commitment.She also challenges the assumptions that quietly keep your pipeline inconsistent:“I've already tapped my network.”“My clients will reach out when they need me.”“I guess I need to do cold outreach.”None of those create a repeatable business development system.This episode shows you how to identify what is already working, stop dismissing it as luck, and turn it into a consistent source of demand.Timestamps for Key Moments:[03:40] – Why cold outreach is not the only way to get clients[05:00] – The 3 lead generation categories explained[12:00] – How to activate your network without making it awkward[15:00] – Why past clients are your most underused asset[19:00] – The difference between passive and repeatable referrals[22:00] – How referral partnerships create ongoing demand[24:00] – Why speaking drives high-quality inbound leads[28:00] – When content marketing works and when it does not[30:00] – How to approach dream clients without cold outreach[35:00] – The 3 filters to choose the right pathway[39:00] – The 2 biggest mistakes that kill your pipelineResources Mentioned:Companion Resource: The Consultant's Lead Generation Effectiveness Scorecardhttps://assessments.melisaliberman.com/lead-genFull Show Noteshttps://shownotes.melisaliberman.com/episode-265Mentioned in this Episode: Episode 262 - How Independent Consultants Get on their Dream Clients' Calendarshttps://shownotes.melisaliberman.com/episode-262/Want More?• Melisa's Books, Planners & Journals: https://linktr.ee/melisaliberman• Get Melisa's Book: https://www.melisaliberman.com/book• Visit Melisa's Website: https://www.melisaliberman.com/ • Follow on LinkedIn:Ready to stop depending on your warm network and start building a real pipeline?The Lead Gen Sprint is a focused program for independent consultants who want a simple, repeatable system for generating leads, without waiting on referrals.The Q2 2026 Sprint starts April 14th.

I just started using a paper planner again for the first time in many years, and the coolest thing is noticing that calendared blocks of time feel more "real" to my brain when I've written them by hand. That tangibility in turn seems to be making it easier to stick with things. Caveat that it can always be the initial dopamine surge of any new system! That said, if it's working, I say try new tools anyway, even if they only work for a few months ;)AuDHD Flourishing resources:Transcript Doc (often a few weeks behind, but we do catch up!)Mattia's NewsletterLike Your Brain community space (Patreon/Discord) Hosted on Acast.

Your pipeline isn't unpredictable because you're bad at business development. It's unpredictable because you're solving the wrong problem.Here's an example.Mike had 12 prospect conversations in two months. None converted. He assumed he needed better leads, a clearer niche, or a different lead gen strategy.He was wrong on all three.The actual problem was happening in the first 10 minutes of every conversation, and one shift in how he approached those calls changed everything.Most consultants treat an inconsistent pipeline like it needs a complete overhaul. New strategy. Different routine. More time available to work on it.The reality? Your lead generation process usually has one specific bottleneck. And until you diagnose what that bottleneck actually is, you'll keep spinning without traction.This episode is for you if:You're having conversations, but they're not converting to opportunitiesYour calendar feels too full for consistent business developmentYou know you need more pipeline activity but you're not sure where to startYou're tired of guessing what's actually wrong with your lead gen processIn this episode, Melisa breaks down the three most common lead generation mistakes independent consultants make, how to diagnose which one is stalling your pipeline, and what to fix first.The bigger point?You don't need a perfect lead gen machine. You need a repeatable process for diagnosing what's not working, fixing the right thing, and refining it as your consulting business evolves.What You'll Learn:[02:00] Why troubleshooting matters more than chasing the "perfect" lead gen strategy - and what even consultants with strong pipelines are constantly adjusting[06:00] The two gaps that keep ideal clients off your calendar - and why solving one without the other doesn't move the needle[11:00] What happens in prospect conversations that determines whether they convert - and the mistake consultants make in the first 10 minutes that stalls everything[24:30] How to diagnose whether "I don't have time" is a real constraint or a symptom of something else entirely[32:00] The step-by-step process for diagnosing your consulting pipeline so you can stop guessing and start building predictable lead flowReady to build a repeatable system for landing consulting clients without relying on referrals or feeling salesy?Learn more about the Lead Gen Sprint at https://www.melisaliberman.com/consultant-lead-generation-sprintResources:Join the Consultant's Lead Generation Sprint: https://www.melisaliberman.com/consultant-lead-generation-sprintFull Show Notes: https://shownotes.melisaliberman.com/episode-263Melisa's Books & Planners: https://linktr.ee/melisalibermanRelated EpisodesReady to stop depending on your warm network and start building a real pipeline?The Lead Gen Sprint is a focused program for independent consultants who want a simple, repeatable system for generating leads, without waiting on referrals.The Q2 2026 Sprint starts April 14th.

In James 3:1-12, we're confronted with a sobering truth: our words carry more power than we realize.James begins with a weighty warning for teachers, but quickly shifts to something that applies to all of us: the tongue. Though small, it has the ability to direct our lives, destroy relationships, and reveal what's truly in our hearts.In this verse-by-verse Bible study, we break down:Why teachers are held to a higher standardThe connection between our words and our heartsHow the tongue can bring life—or destructionPractical ways to surrender our speech to GodThis isn't just about what we say, it's about transformation from the inside out.✨ If this message encourages or convicts you, share it with a friend and subscribe for more verse-by-verse Bible studies.

As health systems pursue growth beyond traditional avenues, the role of the strategic planner is becoming increasingly complex. High level directional data is no longer enough — achieving meaningful, differentiated growth now requires leveraging granular, sophisticated data to inform investment decisions. In this episode, host Rachel Woods sits down with Advisory Board experts Sebastian Beckman and Ellie Wiles to explore how health systems can rethink strategic planning for 2026 and beyond. Together, they unpack what it should actually look like to democratize data, why data governance matters just as much as data access, and how service line leaders can partner with planners to make faster, more precise, margin savvy decisions.

9. Professor Paul Thomas Chamberlainof Columbia University recounts the November 1941 White House meetingswhere U.S. leaders prepared for an imminent, yet poorly understood, Japaneseattack. He explains that military planners initially focused on the Philippines and discounted a strike on Pearl Harborbecause they underestimated the lethality of aircraft carriers. Chamberlain highlights that this era marked the transition from traditional battleship-centric warfare to the carrier-dominated strategies that would define the Pacific theater.
