He explains that true transformation happens through empathy, presence, and right-brain, heart-level connection rather than logical advice.

From Paralympic Silver to Building a Purpose-Driven & Life-Changing Business | Dr Mark Williams Limb Art InterviewMost people who face life-changing adversity spend years coming to terms with it. Dr Mark Williams turned his into a superpower within months. After losing his leg in a cycling accident at age 10, Mark became a world champion Paralympic swimmer and world record holder. Following 25 years climbing the corporate ladder at Ecolab, a chance encounter in a Morrison's car park changed everything. A 4-year-old boy spotted Mark's prosthetic leg cover and begged his mum for one. That moment birthed Limb Art, a company transforming how amputees see themselves. Today, Limb Art operates in 15 countries and has won the King's Award for Enterprise. One ex-para who'd lost three squad mates and his leg in an IED explosion had their memorial tattoo recreated on a leg cover. When he clipped it on, he said "my mates are back," a moment that left everyone in tears.Dr Mark Williams lost his left leg in a cycling accident at age 10 in 1982. He broke British swimming records, won silver at the 1988 Seoul Paralympics, and became world champion in 1989. After 25 years at Ecolab, he founded Limb Art in 2017, now operating in 15 countries and winning the King's Award for Enterprise in 2024. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode of the Business of Aesthetics Podcast, host Don Adeesha sits down with Morgan Curry, CEO and founder of Refine Aesthetics, to explore the pivotal transition every founder must face: evolving from a solo "artisan" to a scalable "architect". A former cardiac ICU nurse, Morgan shares her journey of rebuilding her career in a new city where she knew no one, transforming her practice into a trusted name in natural, regenerative aesthetics. She challenges the common founder trap of thinking "it's easier if I do it myself," arguing instead that true growth begins when you codify your personal authenticity into systems that allow your brand's soul to thrive without your presence in every room. A key focus of the conversation is Morgan's counterintuitive approach to leadership and retention. Rather than fearing that training staff will lead them to leave, she views deep mentorship as the ultimate retention strategy, noting that "people don't leave when you pour into them". She details how she operates with transparency to turn employees into collaborators and hires for shared values and personality over just resume credentials. Morgan also breaks down her "education over sales" philosophy, explaining how using storytelling to lower patient guards and focusing on restoration rather than alteration builds implicit trust, allowing her to command loyalty in a conservative market without ever feeling "salesy". Looking ahead, Morgan discusses the industry's shift away from "filler-heavy" approaches toward regenerative aesthetics and functional medicine, which requires "intentionality" and deep education. She advises practice owners to "nail down their niche" and invest heavily in their team to pivot effectively for the future. The episode serves as a masterclass for any aesthetic leader ready to stop relying on personal grit and start building a business designed to endure.

Purpose Driven Entrepreneurship is about more than building companies. It is about creating businesses that align with values, serve people with excellence, and leave a lasting legacy. In a world where profit often overshadows purpose, entrepreneurs who choose to build with impact stand out as innovators and leaders. David Sauers exemplifies this philosophy. As an entrepreneur and co-founder of Royal Restrooms, his career reflects a commitment to elevating the ordinary into something extraordinary. What began as a vision to redefine the portable restroom industry has grown into a national brand recognized for transforming events, weddings, and public gatherings into experiences marked by dignity and comfort. By taking something as overlooked as restrooms and applying creativity, innovation, and service, David demonstrated what purpose driven entrepreneurship looks like in action. But his story doesn't stop there. Beyond Royal Restrooms, David has ventured into industries ranging from rugged overland campers to nonprofit initiatives abroad. In every case, his work is fueled by a belief that business should reflect more than financial return. It should represent vision, values, and service to others. That perspective not only sets his ventures apart but also highlights a model for entrepreneurs everywhere who want to grow without losing sight of what matters most. Purpose driven entrepreneurship also emphasizes resilience. David's journey underscores that challenges are part of building any enterprise, but a mission-driven mindset turns obstacles into opportunities. By viewing setbacks as temporary and aligning decisions with core values, leaders can navigate uncertainty while keeping their organizations on track. This principle resonates with entrepreneurs across industries who face constant change and competition. Another hallmark of purpose driven entrepreneurship is its impact on people. Businesses that operate with a clear sense of purpose attract teams who believe in the mission. They inspire loyalty, foster innovation, and create cultures that sustain long-term success. David's ventures are examples of how focusing on people and purpose results in stronger organizations that deliver not only profits but also meaningful contributions to communities. For business leaders and entrepreneurs, the lesson is clear: aligning profit with purpose is no longer optional—it is a competitive advantage. Consumers and employees alike are drawn to organizations that stand for something beyond transactions. Entrepreneurs who prioritize purpose position themselves to grow sustainably, differentiate their brands, and build lasting legacies. Purpose driven entrepreneurship is not about choosing between impact and income. It is about recognizing that both can and should coexist. By embedding purpose into strategy, entrepreneurs create businesses that thrive financially while serving people at the highest level. David Sauers is a prime example of how vision, creativity, and commitment to values can reshape industries and inspire others to follow suit. Entrepreneurship will always demand risk, innovation, and hard work. But when it is guided by purpose, it becomes more than a career path—it becomes a platform for influence, service, and transformation. That is the true essence of purpose driven entrepreneurship, and why leaders like David Sauers continue to stand out in today's business landscape.

In this episode of The Steward Chair, Sandy Moll, leader of Advanced Business Solutions, Jeremiah 2911 Capital, and several other ventures, shares her journey of faith-driven leadership, exploring how "chasing God, not busyness" drives meaningful, long-term success. We discuss how Sandy stewards multiple companies while working three days a week, her counter-cultural strategy of growing a business 100% through service, and why she believes "work-life balance" doesn't exist when your work is part of your life's purpose. This conversation provides actionable takeaways for leaders committed to stewardship, integrity, and impact. Key Takeaways Stewardship Through Surrender: Sandy's leadership is founded on "chasing God". She starts each day in silence, asking God for direction, which allows her to manage numerous responsibilities without being consumed by "busy-ness". Growth Through Service: Advanced Business Solutions has grown entirely through relationships and service, not traditional marketing. Sandy's focus is on serving clients well and asking, "Who else can we help?". Work-Life Integration: Sandy reframes the "work-life balance" debate. She believes that if you are doing the work God put you on earth for, it isn't separate from your life—it's an integrated part of it.

In this episode of the Grow A Small Business Podcast, host Troy Trewin interviews John D. Marvin, former President and CEO of Texas State Optical, shares his 25-year journey leading one of America's most iconic optical brands. He talks about growing the company from 100 to 130 locations and over $130 million in annual revenue, adapting to major industry disruptions, and mentoring the next generation of optometrists. John also dives into lessons on leadership, faith over fear, and the power of listening to customers. His story is a masterclass in resilience, innovation, and building purpose-driven growth in a changing marketplace. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to John D. Marvin, the hardest thing about growing a small business is implementing change. He explains that it's easy to keep doing what's familiar, but real growth requires the courage to challenge old habits and adapt to new realities. Marvin points out that while individuals struggle with personal change, organizational change is even tougher—because it involves employees, resistance, and the fear of losing people. Yet, without embracing change, he says, a business risks becoming irrelevant. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? John D. Marvin's favorite business book is Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. He says it has helped him the most because it lays out the 13 core principles of success, not just for making money but for living a rich and meaningful life. For Marvin, the biggest lesson from the book is that success begins with mastering your thoughts — what you focus on and believe ultimately shapes the results you achieve. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? John D. Marvin, former President and CEO of Texas State Optical, recommends continuously learning from great resources to grow a small business. He often listens to John Maxwell's Leadership Podcast for insights on personal and team development, and explores podcasts or materials by authors whose books he's currently reading to deepen his understanding. Marvin emphasizes the value of ongoing education through audiobooks and practical leadership content, believing that consistent learning, reflection, and application are key to adapting and thriving in business. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? John D. Marvin recommends using strong time management and scheduling tools to grow a small business. He believes that success often comes down to discipline — keeping promises, managing priorities, and staying organized. Marvin emphasizes using a reliable calendar or planner, whether digital (like Apple Calendar) or traditional (such as Franklin Covey or Day-Timer systems), to plan ahead and follow through on commitments. For him, effective scheduling isn't just about productivity — it's about building trust, consistency, and professionalism, which are the real foundations of sustainable business growth. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? John D. Marvin says the advice he'd give himself on day one of starting out in business is simple but powerful — just start. He admits that in his early years, he often delayed taking action because he felt he needed to study more or perfect his plan first. Over time, he realized that true learning and progress only happen through doing, not waiting. Marvin compares it to climbing mountains — you build the skills and confidence to tackle bigger challenges by starting with smaller ones. His message to new entrepreneurs: don't wait for perfect conditions — take the first step, learn along the way, and keep climbing.

He explains how each one creates distance—whether through walls we build, hurts we carry, habits we tolerate, or energy we deplete. Using biblical examples like Elijah, Franklin highlights the importance of humility, healing, healthy rhythms, and rest. His central message is that reconnection doesn't begin when others change—it begins when we choose to change, steward our emotional health, and model genuine relational connection.Purchase The Christian Leader Blueprint book today: https://www.ryanfranklin.org/blueprintbookDownload The Christian Leader Blueprint – Short Guide (Free): https://www.ryanfranklin.org/blueprint Take the Christian Leader® Self-Assessment (Free):https://www.ryanfranklin.org/clselfassessment Learn more about Christian Leader® Community Coaching:https://www.ryanfranklin.org/communitycoaching YouTube and Audio Podcast: https://www.ryanfranklin.org/leaderpodcast Connect with Ryan: Email: info@ryanfranklin.org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rnfranklin/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rnfranklin/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rnfranklin/ Audio mastering by Apostolic Audio: https://www.apostolic-audio.com#leadership, #thoughtleadership, #ministry, #pastor, #pastors, #churches, #leadershiptraining, #churchleader, #churchleaders, #influence, #leadershipdevelopment, #coaching, #executivecoach, #leadershipcoaching, #productivitycoach, #productivity, #growthmindset, #theproductiveleader, #ChristianLeader, #ChristianLeadership, #LeadershipPodcast, #FaithAndBusiness, #PodcastInterview, #ChristianEntrepreneurship, #KingdomImpact, #PodcastInspiration, #LeadershipJourney, #PurposeDriven, #ChristianPodcast, #LeadershipEssentials, #LeadershipFundamentalsSend us a text

In this Healthy Mind, Healthy Life episode, we cut through hustle myths to define success on your terms. Marketing advisor and social impact founder Daniel Francavilla unpacks how to leave the grind, set real boundaries, and design an ecosystem where your ventures feed—not fight—each other. We cover work-life balance without burnout, time freedom as a key metric, responsible use of AI for authentic storytelling, and building a personal brand that aligns impact with revenue. If you're scaling a business and want sanity, clarity, and traction, this conversation is built for you. About the guest  : Daniel Francavilla is a marketing advisor, strategist, professor, and serial founder. He built and exited a creative agency, teaches at OCAD University, founded The Good Growth Company for mission-driven teams, and started ACCESS at 17 to back youth-led change. His work sits at the intersection of brand, impact, and sustainable entrepreneurship. Key takeaways  : Redefine success: shift from headcount and volume to alignment and measurable impact. Balance ≠ equal hours; think flow. Say no more often and protect focused time. Boundaries protect creativity: accept projects only when scope and timeline truly fit. Time freedom is a core KPI alongside revenue—plan capacity accordingly. Build your “Ecosystem of You”: map causes, strengths, offers, and roles so projects support each other. Variety can fuel performance—switch tasks intentionally based on demand, energy, and opportunity. Use AI as an amplifier for a defined voice and POV; ethics and taste remain differentiators. Create a master tracker for classes, talks, proposals, and launches to keep cross-venture clarity. Turn away misaligned work; provide scalable value via resources and content. Detach regularly: short trips without calls or client sessions reset mindset and stamina.

A clash of values has made Gen Z "hard to hire," but the deeper crisis is meaning. Materialism bred burnout; escapism bred emptiness. What works? Biblical purpose, relational mentorship, and workplaces led by love—not mere incentives. We show how families, churches, and managers can form character, steward gifts, and turn drifting teens into dependable adults who build rather than bail.

Imagination and Strategy in Organizations Michael and Rebecca explored the role of imagination in organizational development, focusing on how it can help teams break free from routine and avoid burnout. Rebecca emphasized the value of developing strategy collaboratively and embedding it into systems so it becomes actionable. Michael shared a personal story about a team exercise that strengthened his relationship with his CEO, showing how facilitation can break down silos and build vulnerability within teams. Proactive Leadership in Volatile Times Rebecca highlighted the importance of facilitated conversations to create shared language and vivid pictures of possible futures. She stressed that leaders must take agency in shaping the future during times of uncertainty. Michael reflected on his leadership experience during the Great Recession, noting how proactive strategies and market exploration were essential. Both agreed that preparation and action are far better than waiting passively for challenges to unfold. Constraints Spark Creative Solutions Rebecca explained how constraints can ignite creativity, comparing children who produce better art with limited supplies to organizations that innovate within boundaries. She pointed out that major failures like the 2008 financial crisis and the 9/11 attacks were tied to a lack of imagination and unpreparedness for unexpected events. Imagination for Effective Planning Michael and Rebecca discussed how imagination can help leaders plan for multiple scenarios, both positive and negative. They emphasized that envisioning different futures calms the nervous system and prepares people for surprises. Michael encouraged leaders to think beyond worst-case scenarios, exploring opportunities for growth and using positive goal-setting to shape desired outcomes. Imagination in Strategic Decision-Making Rebecca emphasized the need to align emotions with rational decision-making and create compelling shared visions that motivate people. She argued that imagination should be treated as a serious, forward-looking tool rather than relying only on traditional approaches that analyze past performance. Imagination not only makes strategy development more effective but also more engaging and enjoyable. Website and Merchandise Rebecca shared details about her work and invited listeners to visit RebeccaSoutherns.com, where they can explore free resources and her "Possibility Packs," merchandise designed to spark imagination. Dr. Rebecca Sutherns – Imagination Strategist for Purpose-Driven Leaders Rebecca Sutherns, Ph.D., is the CEO and Founder of Sage Solutions, where she helps purpose-driven leaders close the gap between what matters most to them and what they actually do. With more than 27 years of global experience as a bestselling author, master facilitator, and coach, Rebecca is known for turning imagination into a strategic advantage. She brings analytical rigor, warm energy, and adaptability to strategy, governance, and decision-making. Her work began with a simple but powerful observation: many leaders stay stuck in past patterns, overlooking new possibilities. She discovered that a “failure of imagination” is often the hidden reason behind team misalignment and even global challenges. Today, she equips Boards and executives to distinguish what is fixed from what is flexible as they shape the future in times of rapid change. Through her ELASTIC framework, Rebecca helps non-profit leaders reimagine their next chapter with creativity and clarity. Whether through strategic planning facilitation or her innovative Possibility Packs, she champions imagination as a learnable skill and a collective practice—helping leaders co-create vivid mental pictures of what's possible and proactively "dent the world."

Skip and Julie Whis drove seven hours to be in the studio. That tells you something right there about the kind of people they are. These two are chiropractors. Married chiropractors. Running a successful practice together. Teaching their kids about legacy. Doing it all differently than everyone else in their field. Here's the truth about chiropractors. Most of them are terrible business people. They either stay broke playing the insurance game. Or they become frantic stress cases running from room to room treating patients like dollar signs. Skip and Julie figured out something different. They built their practice around experience. Not adjustments. Skip knew from sixth grade he was going to be a chiropractor. Marry another chiropractor. Have two kids. All before age 30. Julie had the same vision. Red house with a turret. Boy and a girl. They manifested every single piece of it. But the real story isn't just about the practice. It's about what they're building beyond it. They don't sell adjustments. They sell experiences. Patients don't pay them for cracking backs. They pay for the transformation. For getting their kid back. For finally having a newborn that doesn't cry all night. For understanding their child with special needs. That's what people actually want. Not another $27 exam from some stressed out doc in a dirty office with last week's newspaper. But the real conversation today goes beyond business. It's about legacy. Not the kind where you want people to remember your name. The kind where you give your kids opportunities you never had. Where you teach them money is available. Money is energy. Money works for you. Not the other way around. This conversation covers everything. How to read people fast. Why integrity matters more than money. The difference between weak money that leaves easy and hard money you earn. Why patients pick up on neediness immediately. How to create proximity instead of distance in relationships. What it means to give back to the community that trusts you. Skip and Julie get it. They're not Alan from Two and a Half Men living on someone's couch. They're building something that matters. Teaching their kids to build something that matters. Showing other chiropractors how to stop being broke and start creating real value. That's legacy.We Meet: Julie and Skip Wyss, Prime Family Chiropractic CentersConnect:Connect with Rick: https://linktr.ee/mrrickjordanConnect with Julie and Skip: http://primefamilycenters.com/Subscribe & Review to ALL IN with Rick Jordan on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/RickJordanALLINAbout Julie:Badass business coach, client experience mentor and curator, CEO/CFO/Owner of Prime Family Chiropractic Centers, Black Diamond Club Certified Coach, Mom of 2 Teenagers, Serial Investor, Real Estate Investor, Speaker, and Chairman of The Spine Project.About Skip:I am a pediatric, prenatal, and pregnancy chiropractor.
