Don't forget to follow this show and share it with your friends, and I'll see you next time on Andrew Petty is Dying!   Timestamped summary of this episode: 00:00:00 - Introduction Andrew Petty introduces the podcast episode and the concept of the Hero's Journey, a framework for a life of purpose and adventure.  00:01:24 - The Best is Yet to Come Andrew announces an upcoming event called "The Best is Yet to Come," where participants can gain a deep understanding of the Hero's Journey and find clarity about their own unique adventure. 00:02:38 - Vince's Story Andrew introduces Vince Coleman and discusses his transition from the culinary world to owning his own business. Vince shares the early hints that a new adventure was calling to him. 00:07:34 - Resistance to Change Vince talks about the resistance he faced when transitioning from the culinary industry to starting his own business. He shares the challenges of uncertainty and financial investment, as well as the fear of fully committing to the new adventure. 00:12:14 - Overcoming Uncertainty Vince discusses how he navigated the transition from working in the restaurant industry to fully committing to his leather business. He shares his decision to work part-time at a restaurant while growing his business and funding it from his savings account. 00:14:45 - Embracing Uncertainty and Transition Andrew and Vince discuss the importance of accepting uncertainty in life and embracing the call to adventure. The guest's wife and close friends played a significant role in supporting his transition from the culinary industry to the leather business. Financial considerations also played a major role in his decision to pursue his new career path. 00:17:21 - Making a Viable Business Vince shares how he realized the potential of his leather business when it started making more money than his previous job. This financial success gave him the confidence to fully commit to his new venture and focus on growing it into a sustainable career. 00:20:01 - Challenges and Growth Vince reflects on the challenges he faced during the early years of his leather business, including burnout and exhaustion. He eventually found a balance between aggressive growth and manageable workload, allowing him to prioritize his well-being and personal life. 00:22:58 - Balancing Success and Self-Management Vince discusses the importance of self-management and maintaining a balance between running the business and being consumed by its success. He highlights the ongoing process of reassessing priorities and finding the right work-life balance as the business continues to grow. 00:25:43 - Shaping Life with Intention Vince shares how his adventure into entrepreneurship has changed his outlook on life. He now has the freedom to shape his business and personal life in a way that allows him to pursue his passions and prioritize experiences like travel. 00:29:04 - The Value of Money and Experience Money adds comfort, but life is about experiences and relationships. Money can make things easier but also more challenging. Comfort can lead to complacency and loss of connection with our stories and sense of adventure. 00:30:22 - Embracing the Call to Adventure We are designed to experience life, explore, create, and have adventures. The hero's journey resonates within us because it reflects our true calling. We were made to be pioneers and not settle into comfort and complacency. 00:31:29 - The Impact of Accepting the Call to Adventure Accepting the call to adventure can lead to significant personal and professional changes. Vince's marriage, mindset, and contribution to the world have all been positively transformed because he chose to embrace the unknown. 00:33:35 - Alternative Reality and the Importance of Pursuing Dreams Imagining a life where Vince didn't accept the call to adventure feels depressing and unfulfilling. Pursuing dreams and passions, following desires, and living life with intent are crucial for personal fulfillment and growth. 00:39:12 - Vince's Journey as an Example Vince's entrepreneurial journey serves as a real-life example of the Hero's Journey. It highlights the importance of embracing uncertainty, overcoming challenges, and transforming oneself. Each person's Hero's Journey will look different, but the essence remains the same.   Let's Connect How did this episode help you? I'd love to know.

So, even if you're a part of a virtual community, you're still physically isolated sometimes. If I were by myself trying to do this with no guidance, with no peers, with no outside encouragement, just me going at it, I don't know how long I could last. My community has been imperative.” - June Dare   “I'm on the right path in the sense that I am determined to not leave this until I know for sure. And if that means that I have to jump completely in and like put myself completely in it so that I cannot turn around one day and be like, “Oh God, I wish I would have and then come to the conclusion that it's not right for me, then it is what it is.” But I don't want to stop until I can, with certainty or with not contentment, feel okay about saying, “This isn't it for me, I gave it my absolute best shot and it's just not what I feel led to do anymore.”” - June Dare -----------------------------------------------------------------------------  Connect with June Dare: LinkedIn: June Dare Bunce Instagram: @ActorJuneDare Facebook: Actor June Dare IMDb: June Dare -----------------------------------------------------------------------------  Thank you for listening, please like and share this episode with a friend!   If you would like to stay connected and get your questions answered by Dr. V, feel free to reach out!   Facebook: Office Visits with Dr. V Instagram: Office Visits with Dr. V.

Join us as we celebrate and remember the amazing journey and life of Dr. Anthony Johnson, cornea specialist, researcher, leader, and teacher, and be prepared to be inspired through his own words recorded shortly before he passed after a courageous 20-month struggle with stage 4 gastric cancer. His story of resilience, ingenuity, and dedication begins with his childhood passion for medicine, maturing at West Point and at USUHS and leading to his innovative work in ophthalmology and impacting the lives of many in his sphere of influence. Learn about the experiences that shaped Dr. Johnson's life, from the challenges and bonds he formed during his time at West Point to his innovative suturing techniques inspired by seasoned ophthalmologic mentors. The stories from his military deployment to Iraq are a testament to his ability to handle chaos and adversity - improvising with limited resources, conducting life-saving surgeries, and making an impact even in the most challenging of circumstances. The poignant reunion years later with patients he treated after the United Nations building bombing in Iraq adds an emotional depth to the amazing care he provided throughout his career. In the final segment of our conversation, we explore Dr. Johnson's reflections on life and his career, his travels to the World Cornea Congress, and his instrumental role in updating equipment for deployable ophthalmology teams. Listen as he opens up about his time in the Army, his commitment to his faith and family, his zest for life, and his unwavering passion for his work.

Camaraderie, shared experiences, and common values among classmates can create a lifelong fraternity that transcends professional boundaries. The journey to becoming a specialized doctor, such as an ophthalmologist, can be full of twists and turns, including unexpected influences and opportunities. War zones can present unique challenges for medical professionals, requiring ingenuity and resilience to provide care with limited resources. Experiences from military deployments, such as treating victims of bombings, can be emotionally impactful and shape one's approach to medicine. Reunions with former patients can provide meaningful moments of connection and demonstrate the lasting impact of medical care. Sharing professional experiences through speaking engagements or teaching roles can contribute to the growth and development of the wider medical community. Reflection on career milestones and personal experiences can provide insights and learnings for future endeavors in the medical field. Facing and overcoming challenges in the medical field, such as handling multiple surgeries in a war zone, can lead to developing specialized skills and knowledge. Pursuing a passion for healing can lead to a fulfilling career that not only impacts individual patients, but also contributes to the broader medical community and society as a whole.   Episode Keywords: Cornea Specialist, Brooke Army Medical Center, Resilience, Ingenuity, Dedication, West Point Military Academy, Uniformed Services University of Health Sciences, Military Deployment, Iraq, UN Building Bombing, Reunion, Reflections, World Cornea Congress, Ophthalmology Teams, Teaching Faculty, Suturing Techniques, Life Lessons, Improvising, Life-Saving Surgeries, Zest for Life, Passion for Work Hashtags: #wardocs #military #medicine #podcast #MilMed #MedEd #MedicineJourney #USMA #USUHS #DrAnthonyJohnson #WestPointGrad #OphthalmologyInnovator #ResilienceInMedicine #WarZoneMedicine #InspiringDoctors #MedicalInnovation #CorneaSpecialist #IraqDeployment   Honoring the Legacy and Preserving the History of Military Medicine The WarDocs Mission is to honor the legacy, preserve the oral history, and showcase career opportunities, unique expeditionary experiences, and achievements of Military Medicine.

Interview with Bradley Rourke, President & CEO of Scottie Resources Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/scottie-resources-scot-20000m-drill-plan-to-expand-mineralised-envelope-3123Recording date: 15th September 2023Scottie Resources is advancing a district-scale 60,000 hectare land package in British Columbia's prolific Golden Triangle. The company boasts seven past-producing mines, with current exploration focused on expanding the high-grade Blueberry zone at the Scottie Gold project.In a recent interview, President and CEO Brad Ruck outlined Scottie's systematic exploration strategy and potential pathways to create shareholder value. The company completed a 20,000 metre drill program in 2022, with assays pending over the next few months. An initial hole returned 56 g/t gold over 3.7 metres, connecting high-grade mineralization across the zone model.Ruck explains that Blueberry is road accessible and contains near surface intercepts over 300 g/t gold. Scottie has designed variability test work on composite samples, achieving up to 97% recoveries at nearby mills. This derisks the deposit and provides a baseline valuation.With the goal of outlining 1+ million ounces of high-grade gold, Scottie is well positioned for an M&A exit or production scenario. The company has garnered major corporate interest after its discovery success. Strategic discussions are likely once the full drill results are released.To advance Blueberry and its regional targets, Scottie is considering traditional and alternative financing options suited to challenging markets. These include royalty deals, JVs, and strategic investments. A small capital raise was recently launched and anchored by a lead institutional order.Despite depression in junior equities, Scottie has maintained drill productivity via its fixed infrastructure and hands-on approach. With one of few fully-funded 20,000m programs in the Golden Triangle this year, Scottie will deliver a steady news flow into early 2023. Its seasoned team continues executing through cycles to drive shareholder value.Overall, Scottie offers leverage to new high-grade gold discoveries in a top-tier jurisdiction. The investment case combines proven technical skills with project optionality across a large land package. As assays arrive, Blueberry has potential to emerge as the next flagship deposit in the Golden Triangle.—View Scottie Resources' Company Profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/scottie-resources-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

A godly pursuit of wisdom has an ultimate goal of living God's way as outlined in the Bible. Unfortunately, life in a sinful world means our path is filled with distractions, deterrents, and delays. Often these roadblocks are even more alluring than annoying. They threaten to derail a godly pursuit of wisdom by encouraging us to settle for less than everything God has planned for us. Because of this, Proverbs tells us to “guard our heart above all else because it is the wellspring of life.” In the series this week learn what that means, how to put it into practice in our lives, and what happens when we don't.Support the show~ Changing lives with Jesus!

Is your team working together toward a clear agency vision? Do you trust your team and effectively delegate? Do the agency leaders also know how to delegate in order to scale the agency?  The agency owner is the Visionary and needs an effective operations leader to align the team with the vision by holding them accountable and having hard conversations. Today's guest is an Agency COO offers insight into an operator's role in keeping the team focused on the agency owner's vision. Zach Montroy is the founder of The Intention Collective, a company that offers strategic planning, growth acceleration, workshops, and leadership coaching for entrepreneurs. As an agency COO, he is passionate about helping companies grow and evolve into high-functioning, high-impact organizations. Today he talks about how agency owners can hold their team accountable and make sure everyone's rowing in the same direction to get their the destination faster and easier. In this interview, we'll discuss: Do you need more employees or better delegating skills? Why effective delegating begins with the agency vision. Operations leaders keep agency Visionaries more focused.   Subscribe Apple | Spotify | iHeart Radio | Stitcher | Radio FM Sponsors and Resources E2M Solutions: Today's episode of the Smart Agency Masterclass is sponsored by E2M Solutions, a web design, and development agency that has provided white-label services for the past 10 years to agencies all over the world.

To Zach, one of the biggest obstacles for agency owners is clarity on how to hold people accountable. As leaders, we carry a huge weight on our shoulders and often think the answer to managing workload is hiring more people on the team. However, it all comes down to how they are delegating, holding people accountable, and driving clarity. Hiring more people can become the default response to a increased workload. However, if you were to examine your team's capacity, you would probably find faults with delegating and clarity that is costing them time. Fixing these issues leads to more work getting done without the need to make new hires. Furthermore, oftentimes we convince ourselves that it's easier and faster to just do things on our own. You may think “It'll take me 15 minutes to do it myself but an hour to explain it to someone else.” The problem is that if we multiply that times 20 or 50 now all our time is going to things other people could be even doing. Agency owners should start by auditing their time for one or two weeks to catch how much they're spending on low-level tasks. Ultimately, those 15-minute tasks add up to 10-15 hours a week that should be delegated to someone else. As an entrepreneur, is this the most effective use of your time? Effective Delegating Begins with the Agency Vision  Cutting down on tasks that are just draining you and taking away time from setting the vision for the agency reflects on your culture. Moreover, it's very likely that there are people on your team who find joy in some of these tasks. It takes a lot of self-awareness to know which tasks to delegate and do it wisely. Identifying the things you need to do in the business goes beyond just wanting to scale. Instead, think about what you would need to do to 20x the business. There are probably two or three big things you should be focusing on. Everything else you should delegate. Ultimately, a clear vision makes all the difference in achieving your goal. Without a clear vision, your team is just working on what they think is important. It's like your team is together in the same boat but everyone will be rowing in a different direction. This is a result of not dedicating enough time and energy to being a leader. As the agency leader you set the boat on it's course and everyone else to follows. Do you know what your destination is? You need to define where you're going as well as why and how you're going to get there. Why Every Visionary Needs an Operations Leader Being an agency Operations leader requires a particular skill set. When you're leading an agency it's your responsibility to keep everyone focused. It's the Visionary's job to be thinking in terms of the agency's future three, five, or ten years down the road. If they're not doing that, it won't grow and scale. In that sense, the Operatorations leader's job to determine what's best now and establish a working strategy to follow. The Operations leader indicates how to align people behind the vision so that it becomes more than just an idea. They also establish priorities and make the hard decisions. If this leader is doing their job, they'll probably say at some point “If we say yes to this then we have to say no to this other idea.” This may create a notion that operations are constantly saying no to the Visionary's ideas. That's not the case. They do say yes to things but they usually have to say no to something else. How Can You Hold Your Team Accountable to the Agency Vision? Pursuing the same goal as the company comes down to how you are holding people accountable. What does accountability look like? Zach says it comes down to clarity. People have to have deep clarity in their roles and contributions. The agency is investing in them and giving them trust to perform the job. Finally, when it comes to accountability, leaders need to have the ability to have hard conversations. Facing issues with the team head-on and with empathy will help you develop as a leader. The more a leader is willing to hold their team accountable, the less they actually have to do it. They'll do it for themselves. Avoiding uncomfortable accountability conversations only leads to a lack of accountability. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset?
