Mike Missimer principal and owner of MGI Mechanical has almost 30 years of experience in the HVAC industry, he has used his engineering background and love of learning to question the rules of thumb that are interwoven into the HVAC world. He has learned firsthand that you get what you inspect not what you expect, and therefore has helped develop and promote sound repeatable commissioning practices that have been codified within jurisdictions of Northern Colorado. Mike also understands the need for integrated sound building science within our homes, that the HVAC system will not work if the buildings thermal envelope does not work.  He Started a separate HVAC design company to ensure that the projects he works on don't silo HVAC design and installation, but rather they work synergistically to create comfort and performance. Mike loves to talk about what he does and teach us all about his passion which made this discussion on the buildCAST extra special for me.

Welcome to Rock Your Shine: After you've been cracked wide open. On this show, I sit down with people from all over the world to hear their transformational stories on their deep grief and loss journeys.  In this episode, we dive into Allison's transformative journey of healing and self-discovery. From a young age, she experienced deep cracks in her life, setting the stage for a path marred by trauma. Desperate for validation, she sought hospitalization as a means to be seen. However, as she grew older, she embarked on a powerful evolution towards finding inner peace. We explore the pivotal moments that shaped Allison's growth, including the profound impact of losing her job and the subsequent unraveling of the career she had painstakingly built. Together, we delve into the concept of "Trauma Echoes" and the attachment we often have to our ego, which can hinder our progress. Amidst the darkness, Allison found a glimmer of hope and discovered the importance of seeking support during moments of suicidal ideation. She generously shares practical tips for processing trauma and holding space for oneself and others. As a disrupter, she offers insights on breaking free from toxic cycles and embracing a path of authenticity. Allison Jackson-Dyer, Ph.D is the Vice President of Learning and Development and Principal Owner of Resilient Leaders.  Allison has led complex teams in companies large and small for more than 20 years. She is a thought leader, keynote speaker, trainer and coach to leaders at every level of companies committed to building stronger teams and more impactful results. She delivers results through a better understanding of trauma, emotional intelligence, conflict resolution, cultural differences, mindfulness and the importance of vulnerability in authentic leadership. At the height of her career, she served as National Vice President of Clinical Operations for an international healthcare organization and as a National Trauma-Informed Care thought leader with the National Council of Behavioral HealthCare leading 17 national teams through the Council's Trauma-Informed Learning Collaborative. Allison has recently expanded her portfolio of services to reach beyond traditional human service and educational organizations, to now include corporate, tech and engineering oriented cultures committed to enhanced diversity, inclusion, equity and belonging.   As a Certified Dare to Lead™ Facilitator as well as the lead content developer for Resilient Leaders own curriculums and simulation practices, Allison is committed to co-creating even more opportunities with organizations and leaders invested in increasing empathy and self-compassion in their workplace culture which translates into greater well-being and connectedness within society as a whole. Join us as we uncover where Allison's journey has led her today and how she defines self-love in her life. Together, we explore the transformative power of intention, delivery, and the unwavering belief that hope is a guiding force towards healing and growth. **TRIGGER WARNING** This episode covers sensitive subject matter and is not suitable for all listeners.

Apart from needing to hustle, it's thinking that… Your business isn't going to make any money for the next 5 years (and you need to work for pennies on the dollar.) In theory, this makes sense. You're a new business. You're not proven. You don't have any credibility. And there's lots of competitors clouding the market.  The standard way of “solving” this issue?  More marketing and sales!  But the real problem here isn't marketing OR sales… it's not knowing how to generate as much profit as humanly possible.  And if you don't understand how to effectively squeeze out as much profit — without killing your growth — you'll end up crashing and burning.  So, if creating a profitable business interests you, then read on.  Today's guest, Tanya Fox, Principal Owner of Fox Talks Business, reveals a practical book that may help you revolutionize the way you conduct your business. And no, it's not The 4 Hour Work Week, Atomic Habits, The E-Myth, or any other mainstream entrepreneurial book. Here's what I can tell you: it has a 4.7/5 rating on Amazon, has been featured in Forbes and Business Insider, and Elon Musk would probably burn this book in a trash can. Listen now! Show Highlights Include: Tired of working for pennies on the dollar? Here's a practical book that helps you steadily increase your profits in business (and no, it's not the 4 Hour Work Week, Atomic Habits, or Think and Grow Rich) (1:30) The “You're business isn't going to make anything for 5 years” lie entrepreneurs tell themselves (and how it overtly sabotages your profits) (2:58) How to pick a coach and one simple thing you can look for that'll let you know whether the rea ideal, or just regurgitating nonsense on the internet (7:55) The “Backwards Journaling” secret that releases the burdens of being an entrepreneur (it's essentially a mini-therapist) (12:32) Why “niching down” robs you of vast business experience (and puts you in the commodity bucket) (17:07) Want more from Tanya?

https://youtu.be/DED3Yt-vTLI Stacey Marmolejo is the Principal Owner of the Franchise Prep Academy, where she focuses on teaching military veterans how to explore franchise ownership as a potential post-service career. We talk about the skills that define a great franchise owner, how to find the right franchise to invest in, and the biggest challenges to growing a franchise business. --- Four Motivations to Choose a Franchise with Stacey Marmolejo Our guest is Stacey Marmolejo, the principal owner of the Franchise Prep Academy. And she focuses on teaching military veterans on how to explore franchise ownership as a potential post-service career. Stacey, welcome to the show. Thank you so much for having me here. Oh, it's awesome to have you here on the show. And we always talk about the backstory of each of our listeners. And I'm very curious about yours. How does someone become a franchise coach and start an academy teaching about franchises? Well, I have wanted to be an entrepreneur since I was in college, which is obviously a long time ago. But I didn't have the courage, the guts, whatever you want to call it, the money, whatever. So, I took the more secure path of going through corporate America. I spent 25 years climbing the corporate ladder, and then I never lost that desire to be an entrepreneur. So, at the peak of my career, I resigned my position and I bought my first franchise, which I kept for 16 years. And I really think of franchise as a great first business for an entrepreneur, because you can learn so much while still having a safety net. I really think of a franchise as a great first business for an entrepreneur because you can learn so much while still having a safety net.Share on X So I did that for 16 years. I sold it last year. And while I was owning the franchise, I sat on the franchisee advisory board. And so, I coached a lot of the new franchisees that came in on how to be successful. So, after I sold my franchise, I thought I was going to retire. I walked around for a couple of days bored out of my mind and decided that I needed to get back into business. And friends said, well, you've been coaching people on how to buy a franchise for so long and how to be successful. Why don't you go into that field? That's how I ended up as a franchise coach. That's wonderful. So, what did you like about being a franchisee and what did you don't like about being a franchisee? I think, and some of this I think is true for everybody that's a franchisee. When you first get started, you love it because there's so much support and so much help. You know, the idea of a franchise is they give you a proven business model, and your job is to execute. And you don't have to worry so much about marketing and lead generation and accounting and all that bookkeeping on the back end, because most franchises have that support for you. It's not that they won't do your books for you, but they have it set up in almost a plug and play system so you can just put data into the system. So, it's a great first foray into owning your own business because then you can learn all those elements of owning a business that you may not have known going in. One of the challenges as people own franchises for longer, they start thinking, I could do it better, or this is what's wrong with our model, and I want to do it differently in my location. And most franchisors do not give you that flexibility to deviate from the original plan. They welcome, most of them welcome if you've got some ideas on how to make it better to share those ideas and then they'll evaluate them, but you can't just go off on your own and do whatever you think would be better. Yeah, no, I can totally relate to that. When I moved here 10 years ago, first I tried to build my own business here, my own investment banking business. And then I realized after a year that business is done so differently here in America from Europe. I didn't have a clue how to communicate,

John Maly began his career in the beauty industry when he took over his family's company, Maly's, and turned it into a $200 million business before selling it to L'Oreal. He then became the CEO of Mirabella Beauty, where he loved leading and developing people in addition to building the largest cosmetic company in the Professional Salon Industry. John is currently President of Wolf Creek Brewery, a role he has held since January 2016, and since April 2021, he has also been the Principal Owner at Atomic Filament.   I'm excited to welcome John to The Wow Factor to discuss how Maly's moved from a small family business to a household name and share the early lessons he learned from his father and four elder siblings. We also dive into the differences in how each generation manages a business and how the Maly's moved forward when the company changed hands from parents to children. John also describes the faith perspective that continues to drive him as a business leader today.   “Slowly, but surely, I kept letting my hands off the steering wheel and letting others really run the strip, and it worked great.” - John Maly   “Once you can surround yourself with great people, great things can happen.” - John Maly   “If you think you're in charge, if you think everything is all about you, at some point in your life, you're going to realize that's not true. You're going to realize that God's in charge, and He's always been in charge.” - John Maly   This Week on The Wow Factor: John's strong connection with his family's beauty business The impact of changes in fashion on the beauty business The importance of helping your kids move forward and become independent Why John decided to go to college to become an accountant and how that drew him back round into the family business Some of the professional challenges John ran into growing the business from $2 million to $200 million What John learned as a leader through building his business How hair guru Paul Mitchell shocked John's conservative parents How John and his siblings worked through serious conflict in the business Where life took John after he sold the family business How John gives back to the community via his businesses   John Maly's Word of Wisdom: Business leaders should understand that ultimately, God is in charge, He's always been in charge, and He's always cared for you. God has you in the palm of His hand, always.    Connect with John Maly: A Beautiful Story: The Maly's Story by John Maly   Connect with The WOW Factor: The WOW Factor Website Connect with Brad Formsma via email Brad Formsma on LinkedIn Brad Formsma on Instagram Brad Formsma on Facebook Brad Formsma on Twitter
