My Business On Purpose
The Simple Marketing & Cash Management Process That Helped This Builder 5x His Project Size

My Business On Purpose

We happen to work with a lot of contractors, but it doesn't really matter what type of business you're in. There are so many business owners that want to scale their product, actually grow the value of their product. They want to go from selling a product or service that's X and offers X at this price, to being able to 2x or 5x it—make it more robust, bigger, or whatever. We talk about these systems all the time. Implementing effective systems to ensure consistent profitability is a critical aspect of not only running a business but also being able to scale a product. Hey, it's Scott Beebe with Business On Purpose. Let's talk about this idea, and I want to give you a real-world example of a client of ours. I'll share his name—got his permission—who was able to 5x his project size. We only asked a couple of key questions, and I want to walk you through that. My buddy Sean Supple, who owns Supple Homes out of Menlo Park and Palo Alto in the Silicon Valley area of California, was laboring away at this wonderful home building company. They were servicing a lot of $2–3 million projects, which, depending on where you live, is a significant project size. But Sean knew he and his team were capable of taking on more unique opportunities, particularly in their market, and they wanted to go after those. Like most contractors, cash flow was always an issue due to the expense of running a business. With 78–82% cost of goods, plus the realities of the Silicon Valley market, it was a challenge. So Sean and his team committed to subdividing their bank accounts—something we talk about all the time. By cutting up their dollars and placing them in separate “homes,” they could see where the money was and also map out their entire process. They created a master process roadmap, even distilled into learning pathways, and committed to RPM communication (Repetition, Predictability, and Meaning). That meant regular agenda-driven, leader-led, one-hour team meetings, departmental meetings, one-on-one check-ins, and executive-level meetings. But what they found themselves needing was a more meaningful marketing plan. So we asked this one key question—the one I want you to write down: Where has 80% of your business come from in the past? We meet so many business owners who want to hire outsourced marketing firms. That's fine, but the reality is they're chasing new pathways when often the answer is in plain sight. Building new channels is like building a building—it takes years of groundwork. Instead, look back and ask: Where has 80% of your business come from in the past? For Sean, the answer was easy: architects. Rather than wasting resources on random efforts, we mapped out a simple, intentional, repetitive, predictable, and meaningful outreach process to a basic list of local architects. Within a few months, Supple Homes began securing larger, more complex projects by nurturing those existing relationships. Sean and his team built financial processes, marketing processes, sales/conversion processes, and operational processes. This gave both his team and prospective clients confidence in their ability to deliver on larger, more challenging projects. The impact of Sean's new commitment to process implementation went far beyond immediate financial gains. By maintaining a solid cash balance—something many contractors struggle with—they no longer had to rely on borrowed money, credit lines, or constant lending. Instead, with subdivided cash and clear processes, they sustained financial stability and gained the confidence to take on larger projects. As a result, Sean and his team successfully transitioned from handling $2–3 million projects to $8–11 million projects. Yes, the market helped, but the real key was their strong financial foundation. Winning projects is one thing; delivering them profitably and on schedule is another. Sean's story illustrates several key points for contractors looking to improve profitability: Regular financial tracking—even if only a few minutes a week—can greatly improve cash flow management. Subdividing bank accounts helps visualize and control finances. Much of cash management is more about psychology than the dollar itself. Control your money rather than letting it control you. Maintaining a healthy cash balance provides confidence and capability to take on larger projects. Cash gives you options. Without it, your options shrink. Improved processes and profitability allow reinvestment in the business, employee incentives, and personal profit—all critical for long-term success. By implementing these systems, you can achieve the kind of growth Sean did. Markets will rise and fall, but preparation and process allow you to handle whatever comes your way. So remember this key question: Where has 80% of your business come from in the past? And what systems do you have to repetitively, predictably, and meaningfully mine that 80%? Because that's where most of your future business will likely come from as well. We can help you map this out. If you'd like a one-time consulting opportunity with us, go to businessonpurpose.com, fill out the contact form, and we'll walk you through options to get kickstarted. And if you want to work with us long term, we'll explain how that works too.

Recently, Ashley and I have had the privilege of meeting with some young couples and talking to them as they're just coming into marriage or preparing to be married. They often ask us a variety of questions, as you would expect from anyone talking to a couple who's been married for a while. One of the big issues that consistently comes up early in marriage—and continues to show up later—is the issue of money. That's been true in our marriage as well. It makes sense that money and finances are also a very real issue for business owners, especially those who are married and both spouses work in the business. So let's have that discussion. I think it's really helpful, and I want to drill it down to one financial dashboard that can bring clarity. Because that's our ultimate goal—to liberate you from chaos and make time for what matters most. By the way, my name is Scott Beebe. If we haven't met yet, I'm part of the Business On Purpose team. A lot of times we meet people who say, “Hey, I've got a vision for what I want to do.” Great! We help you write that down. We've got a vision story framework that does that well. One of the next steps is to build out your financial dashboard. This involves subdividing your cash accounts and will help you gain a much clearer picture of your actual financial health. Instead of lumping everything into one, two, or three bank accounts, it requires about six or more. Now, I know that sounds hard, but I promise it's not. Once we do that, we can begin to isolate the cash in your business and start tracking different aspects of your finances. By breaking your finances into categories, you can more easily monitor the flow of cash. We like to say “flow of cash” instead of just “cash flow,” because for many, that term brings to mind complex reports. This method also allows you to allocate resources effectively and make informed decisions—because now you can actually see where the cash goes. It's kind of like Dave Ramsey for business. Having that level of monetary organization lets you track progress toward any kind of goals—generosity goals, profit goals, reinvestment goals, and more. You can adjust your strategy as needed. Visioning and financial planning is not a one-time event. (And when I say financial planning, I don't mean what a financial planner does—I mean you allocating cash to plan the future of your business.) It's something we must regularly revisit and refine as the business grows and evolves. So, what can you do first? Start with a simple spreadsheet to track your cash balance every single week. You might ask, “Can we do this in QuickBooks or Xero?” Theoretically, yes. But you usually won't—and it serves as a great discipline to do it manually. That foundational step of a spreadsheet allows you to create a realistic budget for the year ahead. Look at your existing profit and loss statements and chart of accounts. If you don't know where to start, look at last year's P&L. That's a great starting point. Don't worry about being precise with your budget at first. Budgeting is more of an art than a science. Once you've got your vision statement and a basic financial dashboard in place, it's time to build out your organizational structure. So now you've got a vision and a financial dashboard—now build an organizational structure to know who's going to handle the financial “fuel” driving the business forward. Think of this like creating a skeleton for your business, similar to the human body. Instead of focusing on specific individual names, focus on the roles. We say “role first, people agnostic.” This lets you structure your business based on responsibilities instead of personalities. Next, identify and map out each process required to run your business. You've got a vision, a simple dashboard, subdivided bank accounts, and a consistent snapshot of those accounts. Now you can create an org chart to know who's doing what—and then define what they're doing. These processes fall into four core systems: marketing, sales, operations, and admin. List the processes under each of these categories. You don't need detail yet—just broad items like “website,” “social media,” or “outbound calls.” This gives you an overview of your operations. Once that's in place, you can map out your company culture using what we call the “Anchor.” You've got your vision, your cash tracking, your roles, and your processes. But how do you build culture into that? Use the Anchor. Create another spreadsheet. List the weeks of the year across the top and your cultural elements along the left-hand side. These could include team meetings, performance reviews, birthday celebrations, anniversary celebrations, training schedules, and more. Then plot these cultural events across the calendar. Assign one person to manage the Anchor and you'll have a visual representation of your business's RPM culture—Repetition, Predictability, and Meaning. It's about creating a framework. It doesn't have to be perfect from the start. The goal is to have these pieces in place and work them with consistency. As you implement these steps, you'll gain a much clearer picture of your business's structure, finances, and culture. It allows you to make better decisions and build a stronger foundation for growth. So we started with money—realizing that money is just fuel. It's a tool to pursue your vision, build clarity around your structure, understand your processes, and foster your culture using simple, actionable tools. If you don't know where to start, here are five good tools to begin with: Vision Story – Lay out where you're going. Financial Dashboard – Track your cash. Organizational Structure – Clarify roles and responsibilities. Processes – Know what needs to be done. Anchor – Build and maintain your culture. That's the glue that holds everything together. So just like those young couples ask, “Where do we start with money?” I've just walked you through five simple tools to start building intentionality into your business. Why?

Overstimulation & Recharge and the Impact on Relationships   In this conversation, Patricia explores the themes of overstimulation, the importance of recharging, and the dynamics of friendship, particularly in the context of neurodivergence. She shares her personal experiences with protesting, the challenges of feeling safe in crowds, and the emotional complexities of friendships, including rejection sensitivity, and the trauma that many Autistics have experienced in relationships. The discussion emphasizes the need for self-care, understanding one's limits, and the significance of connection in navigating life's challenges.   HIGHLIGHTS   ·       We often need to recharge after overstimulation. ·       Protesting can be a positive experience despite initial fears. ·       It's important to communicate needs in friendships. ·       Rejection sensitivity can affect how we perceive relationships. ·       Predictability and routine can provide comfort for neurodivergent individuals. ·       Self-care is essential for emotional regulation. ·       Understanding our triggers can help in managing our responses. ·       Friendships can change, and it's okay to let go. ·       We should honor our sensitivity and the way we connect with others. ·       It's important to recognize that not everyone is meant for us.   SOUND BITES "You have a right to rest." "You are not meant for everyone."   SENSITIVITY IS NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR; IT'S HOW YOUR BRAIN IS WIRED You have a right to reach out to friends. You have a right to rest. You have a right to be playful. You have a right to be serious and quiet. Our idea of fun is not always what a neurotypical's idea of fun is, and that could be studying a language, studying something that you're interested in, doing a craft project, spending time with animals. You have a right to be quiet. You have a right to be loud. You are not meant for everyone and everyone is not meant for you.   CHAPTERS   00:00 Navigating Overstimulation and Recharge 06:04 Experiencing Protest: A Personal Journey 11:54 Friendship Dynamics and Rejection Sensitivity 18:48 Patterns of Engagement and Disengagement PODCAST HOST Patricia was a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 17 years, but she is now exclusively providing coaching.

Enjoy the episode? Send us a text!Are you living with your spouse but feel like you're just living with a roommate? Do conversations revolve only around finances, kids, and chores, rather than the fun and passion you once shared? Many couples experience what's called a "companionate relationship," where intimacy and commitment are present, but the crucial elements of passion and eroticism have faded, often leaving one spouse yearning for more oneness and excitement. This often happens when deep security and intimacy lead to a level of predictability that can, over time, "de-eroticize" the relationship.But there's a powerful secret to reigniting that spark: Planned Surprise.While intimacy thrives on trust and predictability, allowing you to not worry about what's coming next, eroticism and passion flourish on "something new, something different, something unexpected". Predictability, in fact, kills eroticism.In this video, we reveal how to bridge this gap and stop feeling like roommates by intentionally adding passion back into your marriage. Drawing on insights from experts like world-renowned sexologist Dr. Barry McCarthy, we explain:*   Why Predictability Kills Passion: Intimacy provides security, a deep part of closeness where you don't expect surprises. However, eroticism dies when there are no surprises and everything becomes extremely predictable. You could become habituated and de-eroticized unless you're intentional about not doing that.*   The "Surprise Scenario" Exercise: Discover a practical method from the "Becoming One" workbook where each spouse plans out three unique "surprise scenarios". The key is that they review these scenarios together first to cross out anything that "ain't going to happen" or might cause "sexual inhibition".*   The Power of Anticipation (Dopamine): Learn how the actual surprise works: your spouse doesn't know *when, where, or how* one of these pre-approved scenarios will unfold, creating a delightful and sustained anticipation. As the source explains, dopamine has more to do with the anticipation than the event itself. This means there could be a "low-level dopamine" thrill throughout the month, which increases if a clue appears.*   How to Get Started and Keep the Momentum: We discuss how you can gently introduce this concept, even if your spouse is initially hesitant, perhaps by trying a non-offensive surprise without warning them first, much like one husband did by transforming his living room into a "South Pacific" scene to encourage "new anticipatory things". It's crucial for the planned event to actually happen; otherwise, the drop in dopamine and trust can be worse than if they weren't expecting it.Don't settle for a passionless marriage. It's time to become intentional about rekindling the romance and returning to that "craving for oneness" that defines true passion. Watch now to learn the surprising way to transform your roommate situation back into a vibrant, passionate marIf you're struggling in your marriage, don't wait.

There's something magical about stepping into the unknown, suitcase in hand and curiosity leading the way. But ask yourself this the next time you pack your bags: Are you a traveler… or a vacationer?Traveling and vacationing aren't the same, so which one is you?It's not about right or wrong. It's about why you go and how you go.The Vacationer: Comfort, Convenience and Checked BoxesVacationers crave rest—and who can blame them? They've earned that all-inclusive escape. Their plans are polished: the resort booked, excursions mapped out, every detail wrapped in a tidy bow. They're here to relax, recharge, and maybe grab a few Instagram-worthy shots while following the path most traveled. Or maybe the vacation is a mission to do as much as possible according to plan.Either way, there's a certain ease in that kind of trip. Predictability. Familiarity. But there's also something… missing. That spark of discovery. That thrill of being surprised by a place. That connection to culture and community that doesn't always fit inside a brochure.The Traveler: Curious, Open and Eager to DiscoverTravelers take the road less photographed. They don't just want to see a place—they want to feel it. They linger in local cafés, talk to strangers, or take a wrong turn down an alleyway in an old European town just to see what's there. They don't mind the imperfect hotel room or the language barrier. In fact, they welcome it. Traveler's are often lost by design, because it means they're doing it right.To the traveler, every destination is a chance to grow. Every moment is part of a bigger story. And sometimes, the best adventures begin when the plan goes out the window.So… Which Are You?Take the quiz and find out.Do you stick to the itinerary—or stray from the script?Do you leave with a suntan—or a story?Do you chase rest—or revelation?The following 10 questions will tell your travel story.The 1923 Main Street Traveler or Vacationer QuizAnswer YES or NO to the following 10 questions.

You like a balance: a comfy bed and a structured plan, but with room for curiosity. You're open to adventure, especially when it fits into the day's schedule. A little more freedom and spontaneity could turn your trip into a deeper story.8–10 YES Answers: You're a True Traveler. You live for the moments that can't be booked in advance.

Well, it's first thing here in the office. These are the times that, when I'm in town—we travel quite a bit for work—I like to be able to come in when it's not super busy because you can actually get a lot of things done. But how do you know that you're not really tiptoeing around like a mouse, micromanaging everybody else that's coming in, and making them feel this pressure, like you're constantly looking over their shoulder? We have a tool called the Seesaw of Predictability I wanted to introduce you to. Hey, it's Scott Beebe with Business On Purpose. Make sure you tune in to every episode of the Business On Purpose podcast. Also, two of our guys, Sean and Brandon, have started the Dickie and Donnie Do Business podcast. You want to make sure it's on your radar—go listen to every episode. My kids are listening to it, a lot of our clients are listening to it, and many folks who are not yet clients are listening too. It's a fascinating podcast. So let's talk about this issue of micromanagement. Understanding the fine line between what we call effective leadership on one hand, and micromanagement on the other, is essential for you as a business owner or key leader. That's where the concept of the Seesaw of Predictability comes in. Just imagine a seesaw in your mind. It offers a simple but powerful way to gauge whether you're leading effectively or slipping down that slope of micromanagement. To determine if you're micromanaging, ask yourself a key question—probably good to write this down: Am I asking the right question at the right time? Stop there and really meditate on that. When either of those elements is out of balance, like a seesaw, you're likely micromanaging. Let's consider some scenarios. Scenario 1: Asking the wrong question at the right time. Imagine you're in a team meeting and suddenly request sales figures from 11 years ago. While the timing might be appropriate since it's during a meeting, the question is irrelevant to the current discussion and goals. It throws people off because it's unexpected. Remember the RPMs of great leadership: Repetition, Predictability, and Meaning. Scenario 2: Asking the right question at the wrong time. Let's say you need last week's sales results. Perfectly reasonable request. However, if you text your team at 11:37 PM on a Friday demanding the information, you've crossed into micromanagement. Scenario 3: Asking the right question at the right time. You request last week's sales results during this week's sales meeting. That's spot on. This demonstrates leadership and accountability—exactly what you should be aiming for. There's a time to ask the appropriate question, and there's a time not to. If you can maintain that balance—or what we like to call rhythm—you can lead your entire business with healthy leadership practices. The goal is to equip the team with the knowledge tools they need to handle recurring challenges. By the way, that's a subtle definition of leadership: to equip people. Think of an empty toolbelt—you're giving them tools, equipping them with knowledge and skills to handle recurring problems. Because even if we “solve” a problem, it doesn't disappear forever—it often just retreats, only to reappear somewhere else. That's how chaos works. And chaos won't be fully defeated until much later in life. Additionally, you should proactively begin sharpening those tools, just like you'd sharpen a knife. Ashley and I like to cook meal kits at home. They ship you all the ingredients and make you feel like a chef. One of the first things I always do is sharpen the knife with that little post—whatever they call that. Similarly, part of leadership is proactively sharpening your tools through training and development. When you ask the right questions at the right time, it not only helps you avoid micromanagement but also empowers your team to perform at their best. You create an environment of trust, accountability, and continuous improvement. Those are all hallmarks of effective leadership. Hey, I know a lot of you have questions around this.

Kevin Werbach interviews Shameek Kundu, Executive Director of AI Verify Foundation, to explore how organizations can ensure AI systems work reliably in real-world contexts. AI Verify, a government-backed nonprofit in Singapore, aims to build scalable, practical testing frameworks to support trustworthy AI adoption. Kundu emphasizes that testing should go beyond models to include entire applications, accounting for their specific environments, risks, and data quality. He draws on lessons from AI Verify's Global AI Assurance pilot, which matched real-world AI deployers—such as hospitals and banks—with specialized testing firms to develop context-aware testing practices. Kundu explains that the rise of generative AI and widespread model use has expanded risk and complexity, making traditional testing insufficient. Instead, companies must assess whether an AI system performs well in context, using tools like simulation, red teaming, and synthetic data generation, while still relying heavily on human oversight. As AI governance evolves from principles to implementation, Kundu makes a compelling case for technical testing as a backbone of trustworthy AI. Shameek Kundu is Executive Director of the AI Verify Foundation. He previously held senior roles at Standard Chartered Bank, including Group Chief Data Officer and Chief Innovation Officer, and co-founded a startup focused on testing AI systems. Kundu has served on the Bank of England's AI Forum, Singapore's FEAT Committee, the Advisory Council on Data and AI Ethics, and the Global Partnership on AI.   Transcript AI Verify Foundation Findings from the Global AI Assurance Pilot Starter Kit for Safety Testing of LLM-Based Applications

I've worked in and around plenty of people during my day, as I'm sure you have, that had the title of leader. And yet, the fruit of their work was a little suspect based on their title. In reality, we could call it micromanagement. But how do we know the difference? Hey, it's Scott Beebe with Business On Purpose. Let's talk about that briefly here for about four or five minutes. I think it'll be really helpful in understanding how you can motivate a team, a workforce, and keep those separate between leadership and micromanagement. Let's call it out when it is. Sometimes we just have weak moments and we get into that. But we want to be clear. Leadership is not an abstract concept; it's a practical skill—something you can hone that's essential for success in any business. As a leader, your primary role is to equip your people with the knowledge and tools they need to handle ongoing challenges and then proactively sharpen those tools through what we call the RPMs of great leadership: Repetition, Predictability, and Meaning. It's important to understand that many problems in business are actually cyclical. They're perennial. They don't disappear—they resurface over and over again. You might punch chaos in the mouth, but it just goes off into the woods and comes out the other side, deceived and dressed up in another costume. Chaos is a constant threat. It's an enemy. It hates you. And that chaos is a threat in any business and business environment. You might successfully fend it off temporarily, but eventually, it will return. Understanding that truth is key to effective leadership. Instead of hoping with your fingers crossed that problems are just going to vanish, a wise leader prepares their business to manage those recurring issues. Consider the example of a European soccer match. In fact, at the time of this recording, a champion was just crowned in the Premier League. The presence of stewards and security personnel at those events illustrates how these organizations equip themselves to handle predictable challenges. You'll see them in little yellow coats all over the stadium. We actually went and visited a top-league match in Greece just last year, and we were amazed at the number of armed guards around. Why? Because they were anticipating predictable problems. Rather than attempting to eliminate rowdy behavior entirely, they developed systems and trained personnel to manage those situations as they arise. They realize people are going to be idiots at soccer games from time to time. The scenario translates well into our business communities. As a leader, your job is to outfit your team with the right tools and knowledge to tackle recurring problems. Think of it as filling an empty tool belt for each team member. You're not just providing the tools—you're also teaching them how to use the tools and reminding them to keep those tools sharp and ready. Leadership, then, can be defined this way—ready? You may want to write this down: Leadership is the equipping of individuals with knowledge and tools to manage perennial problems, and the proactive sharpening of those tools. Notice we don't use the word solve, but manage perennial problems, while also proactively sharpening those tools. It's an ongoing cycle of RPM—preparation and improvement. Let me read it again: Leadership is the equipping of individuals with knowledge and tools to manage perennial problems and the proactive sharpening of those tools. For business owners, embracing this perspective can be super beneficial. Recognize that challenges will resurface and focus on building a team capable of managing those issues. Your role is to continually stock your team's tool belts with the right resources and ensure they know how to use them. It's important to distinguish this from micromanagement. Effective leadership empowers team members to handle problems independently using the tools and knowledge you've provided—assuming you've provided them. Micromanagement, on the other hand, involves excessive control and can hinder growth and efficiency. Usually, the person who leans toward micromanagement is the one who has never spent the time to get all the systems, processes, and methodology out of their head. Instead of laying it out and saying, “Hey, this is the ethos of the business we're building,” they try to ensure—and I've been guilty of this—that everything is done exactly their way, every time, 120%. In reality, we have a core value called 85/15. The business provides 85%, but we need you to fill in the gap of the 15%. That's more leadership through RPMs: Repetition, Predictability, and Meaning. When you adopt this leadership style—the RPM leader—you create a resilient organization capable of navigating the recurring challenges of your industry. Hey, it's real simple.

In this episode, I sit down with Jordan Garrett, a special education teacher from the UK and the creator behind Sensory Classroom. We talk about what it really takes to support autistic students with high support needs—especially during group time. Jordan shares how success isn't about getting everyone to sit and comply, but about building trust, meeting sensory needs, and creating a safe, engaging space where students can come and go as they're ready. From empowering teaching assistants to embracing the messy, beautiful moments of connection, this conversation is full of encouragement for anyone supporting young autistic learners. Bio Jordan is a Specialist Education Teacher in the UK. She works with minimally speaking autistic and PMLD pupils aged 3-11. She has been teaching SEND for over 15 years and has a passion for teaching through sensory-based practices.

On this episode of the Hayek Program Podcast, Peter Boettke reflects on the lessons he's learned throughout his academic career, focusing on what it takes to succeed after graduate school. Boettke encourages graduates to: value the scientific pursuit of truth and scholarship; cultivate a sense of awe, wonderment, surprise, and appreciation; and to be curious. He cautions against prioritizing cleverness over clarity and emphasizes the need to continually adapt and adjust. Persistence and hard work pays off. Try to pursue ideas, not people. Don't be inept and don't be lazy. Pay attention to details. Be a productive member of your department. Produce research that is genuinely interesting and of intrinsic value to your academic peers. Try to be a life changing professor. Work with good people who challenge you and find that network which insists on lifelong learning, one where you can harshly criticize one another then go have a beer together. Boettke highlights the ongoing work of the liberal project, arguing that liberalism is not a fixed doctrine, it's an emancipatory project. Liberalism begins with a very strong recognition of oppression, but it brings a promise of deliverance. Because language and problems change over time, liberalism must be restated in the language and concepts of successive generations. He argues that the worst thing that can happen to a good cause is not to be artfully criticized, but to be ineptly defended.Peter Boettke is a Distinguished University Professor of Economics and Philosophy at George Mason University and Director of the F.A. Hayek Program for Advanced Study in Philosophy, Politics and Economics at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University. He has published numerous books including The Socialist Calculation Debate: Theory, History, and Contemporary Relevance (2024), Money and the Rule of Law: Generality and Predictability in Monetary Institutions (2021), Living Economics: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow (2012), and Challenging Institutional Analysis and Development: The Bloomington School (2009).If you like the show, please subscribe, leave a 5-star review, and tell others about the show!

Summary Dr. Elisa Chiang discussed strategies for creating predictability in unpredictable economic times, emphasizing that the fundamentals of the economy are generally sound, with current uncertainty stemming from external factors. She highlighted the importance of understanding economic interrelations and the potential impact of challenging international relationships. Dr. Chiang suggested that individuals and businesses should evaluate their dependencies and explore ways to become more self-reliant. For physicians, this includes recognizing the value of their skills and exploring options beyond traditional employment, such as private practice or becoming invaluable within their current roles. She also emphasized the importance of diversifying income streams and managing personal finances to reduce reliance on a single paycheck. The conversation also covered strategies for physicians to increase their income, such as specializing in high-value procedures, leveraging support staff, and improving efficiency. Dr. Chiang advised questioning fixed mindsets, challenging existing beliefs, and experimenting with new approaches to adapt to unpredictable times. She also discussed tax planning, investment strategies, and the importance of maintaining a long-term perspective when dealing with market volatility. For those nearing retirement, she recommended assessing risk tolerance, diversifying portfolios, and building a cash cushion. Dr. Chiang offers one-on-one coaching to help individuals navigate their financial situations and achieve their financial goals. Her podcast, 'Grow Your Wealthy Mindset,' provides financial literacy in bite-sized pieces, helping listeners build the knowledge and mindset needed to create financial stability. Chapters Introduction to Predictability in Unpredictable Times Elisa Chiang was invited to discuss creating predictability in unpredictable economic times. The discussion is framed as non-political, focusing on the factual unpredictability of the world. The goal is to provide strategies for individuals to make their financial situations more predictable. Economic Fundamentals and Global Interdependence Chiang stated that the fundamentals of the economy are still good, unlike the issues in 2008 with banking regulation. The current uncertainty is attributed to the actions and statements of certain individuals. The discussion highlights the importance of understanding the complexities of economics and global interrelations. Anytime decisions are made from an independent place, you start to realize we're actually not independent at all. Challenging Independence and Embracing Interdependence Chiang suggests challenging the idea of complete independence and recognizing interdependence on others. Asking questions about dependencies and self-reliance is valuable, but actions must be carefully considered. Many people feel dependent on their paycheck, but physicians have options due to the physician shortage. Separating the ability to produce income from the current job can create stability. Creating Independence and Managing Control The discussion covers the mentality behind creating a private practice and the desire for independence. It's noted that even in private practice, there is still interdependence on systems and people. The focus should be on how to become independent and self-determining results in situations where you don't have control over all of these things. It's important to understand what you can and can't control. Strategies for Exerting Independence Chiang suggests becoming an entrepreneur within your job to make yourself invaluable. This involves attracting patients directly and highlighting your value to the practice or institution. Employers care about generating income, so making yourself invaluable in this area is crucial. Taking care of personal finances and creating multiple income streams reduces reliance on a single paycheck. Translating Value into Income The inherent value of experience, training, and knowledge is highlighted. Physicians translate this value into income through their actions. The trap of trading time for money limits income potential unless value is translated into different income streams. The discussion explores ways physicians can generate income outside the classic RVU model. Increasing Income within the Physician Realm Specializing in specific procedures or surgeries can elevate income. Leveraging other people, such as nurse practitioners, can double clinic output. Hiring scribes can increase productivity and collections. Physicians should work at the top of their income level, delegating tasks to others. Mindset Shifts for Unpredictable Times Adopting a growth mindset can help individuals respond more effectively in unpredictable times. Questioning current beliefs and challenging the status quo is important. Comparing oneself to others who are thriving can provide insights and motivation. Willingness to spend money to make money and accepting failure are key to success. Helping Individuals Deal with Change Questioning the truth of current situations and exploring potential changes is crucial. Experimenting with small changes and learning from others can lead to improvements. Advocating for necessary resources, such as dedicated scrub techs, can increase efficiency. Believing in the potential for change and presenting a clear case for it is essential. Financial Viability in Private Practice A simple formula for private practice success is income minus expenses minus tax burden. All three factors can be influenced in different ways. Leveraging people, doing more cases, and optimizing income streams are ways to increase income. Tax burden can be managed through various strategies. Tax Planning and Side Businesses Every time is unpredictable, so framing the mindset accordingly is important. The more we think like, yeah, the world is doing whatever it's worlding. The world is doing whatever it's doing. We can make our own predictivity, then we don't have to keep thinking like, oh, it's unpredictable, and we have no way to affect it. It's just always unpredictable. As a W-2 employee, there are limited options for tax reduction. Having a side business can provide opportunities to write off personal expenses. Side hustles should align with passions and translate into value and money. Time Management and Productivity Finding something else that you need to find you having to find more time in order to do something helps you structure your time so that you are most efficient with your time. Limited time resources require careful management. Calendaring and time-blocking can improve efficiency. Having a list of tasks that can be done in 10-15 minute intervals can boost productivity. Managing Retirement Funds If retirement is 10 years or more away, continue with the financial plan and consider contributing more. Maximize retirement accounts and explore other savings options. Buying stocks when they are on sale can be a great strategy. Establish a risk tolerance and adjust investment strategies accordingly. Investment Strategies and Risk Tolerance The stock market tends to go up over time, especially with more people investing. Investing during downturns can lead to better outcomes. Even in retirement, there is still a long investing career ahead. Avoid panic selling and maintain a long-term perspective. Retirement Planning and Withdrawal Rates Assess investment strategies and consider shifting to a more conservative portfolio if nearing retirement. Develop a cash cushion to avoid selling stocks during the first few years of retirement. Understand what money is for and focus on enjoyment and security. Consider a Monte Cristo analysis to assess the chances of running out of money. Dr. Chang's Coaching and Podcast Chiang offers one-on-one coaching to help individuals reach their financial goals.

Patterns of anxiety can vary based on environmental factors. Children may need different levels of support depending on their emotional state. Co-regulation is essential for helping children manage anxiety. Predictability in routines can help reduce anxiety for neurodivergent children.

Start Your Transformation Now  In this powerful solo episode, Jim Fortin explores a concept he's never directly addressed before: the identity illusion—and how it subconsciously keeps people stuck in cycles of struggle, fear, and self-sabotage. He explains why most people never truly change, no matter how much they learn, and reveals why transformation doesn't come from more information—but from breaking free of who you think you are. Jim takes listeners deep into the subconscious mind, breaking down the mechanisms behind identity verification, predictability, and disintegration anxiety. Using vivid metaphors and examples, he explains how we unknowingly recreate the same results in life—whether financial ceilings, toxic relationships, or emotional blocks—and why you can't escape the illusion from inside the illusion. If you're tired of trying to think your way to change or wondering why you can't break old habits, this episode is the wake-up call you didn't know you needed. What You'll Discover in This Episode  The Trap of the Identity Illusion (03:30) – Why you always fall back into the same patterns, even after gaining insights or motivation.  Why More Information Isn't the Solution (11:10) – The critical difference between understanding and being—and why just “knowing” doesn't change your life.  You Can't Escape the Box from Inside the Box (19:42) – A powerful metaphor that explains why transformation requires an external shift in perspective.  How You Unconsciously Verify Your Identity (28:05) – The hidden way you attract experiences that confirm who you believe you are—even when it's painful.  The Role of Predictability and Disintegration Anxiety (35:21) – How the brain's survival mechanisms stop you from creating lasting change.  Why You'll Stay Trapped Without Mentorship (47:50) – Jim's own turning point story that underscores why mentorship is essential for real growth. Listen, apply, and enjoy! Transformational Takeaway  You are not your struggles, your past, or your circumstances. You are a being living inside an illusion of identity—one that was formed by subconscious beliefs, childhood experiences, and repeated patterns. The good news? Illusions can be broken. But it requires a shift in being, not just thinking. True transformation begins when you step outside of the box and allow yourself to see what's really been holding you back. It's not that you're broken—it's that you've been hypnotized by an old version of yourself. Set yourself free.

How To manage your cash so it flows predictability and freely

My Business On Purpose

When you're a business owner, you struggle so much with cash flow. It seems when we have these conversations with so many different business owners, one of the biggest questions we get all the time has to do with various elements of cash flow. These questions come to us at different times and in different ways. Hey, it's Scott Beebe with Business on Purpose. Delighted to bring you some content that I think could be encouraging and helpful to you around this idea of cash flow. Before I dive into this, one thing I want to let you know is if you're not living a life of generosity—and I'm talking about monetary generosity, not just other types—you will always, always struggle with money. There's a sort of spiritual law around this. You can go back millennia and realize that money is one of the top topics discussed in all of history. A lot of it has to do with the fact that we're not taking parts of it, cutting them off, and moving them to other places. We've got to be mindful of this idea of generosity. But we also have to ask the question: Why do we not have as much money as we think we should as business owners? I want to walk you through this. To demonstrate the importance of understanding the full fiscal picture, I want to discuss an example about a man I'll call Steve. This is a real client of ours, but I've changed his name. Steve owns an $8 million high-end new construction home-building business in California—a tough state for building due to strict credentialing regulations. This context sets the stage for the financial challenges he was going to face as 2020 began. You might think, "Well, that's a pretty old example." Yes, but I'm using it because the pandemic made things even harder. Even though many construction companies started booming, cash flow issues persisted. Steve, like all of us, was unaware of the impending pandemic, but his financial situation was already precarious. At the end of 2019, we examined his cash position and suggested subdividing his bank accounts to better track and manage his finances. Steve trusted the advice, and we set up several accounts—about six or seven—including an all-income account, a profit account, an operating expense account, an owner's compensation account, a capital expenditure account, a tax account, and a few others. Initially, Steve believed he had a comfortable cash balance. He looked at his one bank account and saw $160,000 to $170,000. That might seem substantial to some, but for running an $8 million home-building company—where upfront cash is needed for projects—it was quite lean. As we broke down the balance, his true financial picture started to emerge. We explained that a large portion—about 80%—would go to the cost of goods, including labor and materials. The realization was eye-opening for Steve. He knew the number but had never thought about it in these terms: for every dollar that comes in, 80 cents goes right back out. We also pointed out the need to set aside funds for taxes, reinvestment, equipment, operations, payroll, and other necessary expenses. After segmenting the $160,000 to $170,000, the stark reality became clear—Steve really only had about $32,000 of available cash to run his $8 million company at the start of a pandemic year. The revelation was shocking but crucial for understanding his position. His scenario illustrates a common issue among small business owners, especially those with 3 to 100 employees. Many believe they have more available cash than they do because they fail to account for upcoming expenses and obligations. By breaking down the numbers and allocating funds to specific accounts, business owners can gain a clearer picture of their financial health and make more informed decisions. For Steve, this realization came just in time. With the pandemic looming, having a precise understanding of his available cash allowed him to navigate the challenging months ahead. This experience underscores the importance of proper financial management—what we call the past, present, and future view. I'll talk more about that in an upcoming podcast, but for now, let's focus on subdividing multiple bank accounts. Instead of putting all your money into one account, break it up. Why? If you put popcorn in one big bucket, you'll eat all of it. But if you spread that same volume of popcorn across 10 buckets, you'll feel guilty by bucket six and slow down. Once we identified the problems, we focused on improving Steve's cash balance. The key question became: How do we generate money that can be used for profit, bonuses, incentives, and essential business activities while maintaining generosity? We wanted to position him for radical generosity. To simplify the process, we focused on tracking his cash balance weekly. We enlisted his in-house administrator to monitor the bottom-line cash balance, considering all expenses, including the cost of goods and profit. We calculated an eight-week rolling average to prevent cherry-picking favorable numbers. Initially, Steve's weekly rolling average was $81,000. Fast forward a year—despite the pandemic, a drop in revenue from $8 million to $7 million, and a six-week municipal construction shutdown—his rolling eight-week cash balance grew from $81,000 to $320,000. Four to five years later, the business is now projected to generate $17-18 million in revenue. Not only has revenue increased, but the cash balance has grown substantially. Today, his average rolling cash balance is between $800,000 and $1.3 million every week—before accounting for costs and expenses. The transformation has been extraordinary. When asked what he did differently, Steve humorously says, "I think it's voodoo." But it's not—it's simply the psychology of money. Subdividing your bank accounts and understanding financial behavior can lead to profound results. His case illustrates the power of consistent tracking and focusing on cash balance. By maintaining a vigilant eye on finances, making informed decisions based on real-time data, and having a heart for generosity, businesses can withstand unexpected chaos and achieve remarkable growth that benefits many beyond just the owner.

Magical Thinking is often misunderstood.Jason Segel plays a psychologist in the Apple + TV show, “Shrinking.” He is talking to a patient with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder.He looks at her. “This again?” She is holding her breath. He says, “You looked at the clock and now you have to hold your breath until the minute changes?” Holding her breath, she nods her head. He says, “Look, I know you feel like this compulsion is gonna help keep bad things from happening, but that's called magical thinking.”Medical News Today says, “Magical thinking means that a person believes their thoughts, feelings, or rituals can influence events in the material world, either intentionally or unintentionally.”But the summary of that article says, “This type of thinking does not always cause harm.

But what if I told you some of the biggest benefits of paid ads have nothing to do with advertising ROI? Instant market feedback (know what actually resonates with clients) A sales process that improves fast (because you're getting more at-bats) Pricing confidence (no more second-guessing your rates) Higher perceived authority (people will start recognizing your name) Predictability (goodbye, feast-or-famine cycle) These benefits are so powerful that they're worth running ads even if you're losing money at first.

Scientists sound alarm over troubling phenomena forcing them to 'rethink' everything 'Predictability has become more challenging'The Cool Down, By Chelsea Cook, on February 14, 2025https://www.thecooldown.com/green-tech/unpredictable-climate-patterns-shift/ In the face of increasingly unpredictable weather patterns and rising climate change risks, scientists are sounding the alarm over how outdated models are failing to provide accurate forecasts for extreme weather events. Researchers are struggling to adjust their climate models in the face of shifting ocean currents, unprecedented flooding, and the overall volatility of weather. These challenges are making it difficult to prepare for natural disasters that are disproportionately affecting vulnerable communities.Despite the urgency for enhanced research and preparedness, political pressures and budget cuts are undermining the very institutions needed to address these growing climate risks. Powerful corporations have consistently ignored or downplayed the significance of climate change, focusing on short-term profits rather than long-term solutions. This has led to a precarious situation where climate uncertainty looms large, and scientific institutions, underfunded and under attack, are struggling to guide us toward meaningful solutions. As one speaker highlights, "The chickens are coming home to roost," echoing a sentiment that the consequences of our current inaction will soon become unavoidable.As these extreme weather events become more frequent and severe, it's essential for policymakers to prioritize research and funding to better understand and mitigate the effects of climate change. However, this is increasingly difficult in a political climate where corporate interests are driving decisions, and scientific efforts are being hindered. In response to this urgent situation, there is a call for increased public involvement, from supporting climate-friendly policies to reducing individual carbon footprints through lifestyle changes. Yet, as discussed, the real key lies in corporate responsibility and the government's role in funding and protecting climate research. Until these larger systemic changes occur, the battle against climate change will remain a monumental challenge.The Non-Prophets, Episode 24.9.4 featuring Cynthia McDonald, Infidel64, Aaron Jensen and AJBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-non-prophets--3254964/support.
