The Guest of Honour: Dr. Philippe Couillard, former Premier of Québec (2014-2018) and senior consultant, StrategyCorp    From Montréal's controversial but innovative REM light rail project to balancing four consecutive provincial budgets, Dr. Couillard opens up about governing with private sector partners, modernizing public infrastructure with PPPs and embracing political risk.   The former provincial Liberal leader reflects on how to ensure infrastructure projects are built to last and how bureaucratic overload is threatening innovation. He also challenges conventional views on profitability in public projects and calls for smarter, more collaborative models, drawing on lessons from European healthcare and public transit.   For this special 2025 finale, Mike and Dan also get practical advice from Dr. Couillard for business leaders hoping to partner with government—and why understanding Québec culture is essential to any fruitful collaboration.  Inspiring Entrepreneurs is a  TNKR Media Original Production.

We break down Survivor 49, Episode 12 (“The Die Is Cast”) and the chaos of a vote that should have been simple, but somehow turned into an all time head scratcher.

From Chaos to Cash Flow: How Business Owners Can Scale with Less Stress with David Forster   "Slow is smooth, smooth is fast."   If you're stuck reacting all day, this episode with David Forster hands you the blueprint: clarify roles, codify the 80%, install scorecards that measure what matters, and make Profit First automatic so cash is where you need it—when you need it.   In This Episode, You'll Learn:  Why "boring, repeatable systems" beat heroics—and how to build them for people who crave structure. The clarity–consistency–accountability trio: what each really means in day-to-day ops. The 90–180 day "adoption dip" and how to push through it. Scorecards: tie activity → ratios → results (and stop tracking vanity metrics). Onboarding that sets the fence lines (and uses QR'd micro-videos for field teams). The "Think Like Me" cheat sheet so crews can make good calls without you. Profit First with Relay: reducing "move-the-money" friction to near zero.   Key Takeaways:  Build for the 80%. Don't rewrite SOPs for one-off edge cases; keep them simple and usable. Adoption is a habit curve. Expect drop-off at 90–180 days; consistency wins. Scorecards must link effort to outcomes (e.g., calls → close ratio → sales). If it doesn't predict success, drop it. "Fence lines" create safety. Reward following process; improve the process when outcomes miss. Systemize onboarding. Use bite-size clips + QR codes; new hires set the tone for the rest. Cash discipline ≠ harder work. Automate allocations (Relay) so Profit First happens without willpower.   Bio: David Forster is the founder of Systems Over Sweat and a strategic expert in business operations for home service businesses scaling past $1M - $5M in revenue. With over 20 years of experience building, scaling, and exiting service companies, David helps owners escape the chaos by fixing the processes that are quietly draining their time, profit, and energy. He's not a theorist—he's a tactician. David works with business owners to eliminate inefficiencies, simplify operations, and build scalable systems that allow the business to grow without the owner needing to be involved in every little decision. He's the guy that makes sure your operations actually operate.   Links: Website: https://www.systemsoversweat.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rdavidforster LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rdavidforster/   Conclusion: Scale doesn't come from working harder—it comes from designing clarity, codifying the 80%, and reviewing scorecards with courage. Pair that with automated Profit First allocations and you'll stop firefighting and start compounding profit.   #ProfitFirst #CashFlow #SmallBusiness #Trades #EOS #SOPs #Scorecard #OwnerPay #RelayBanking #Operations #Accountability #CFO   Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@profitanswerman Sign up to be notified when the next cohort of the Profit First Experience Course is available!

Welcome to episode 122 of The Journey Is the Reward!Hold onto your tray tables, folks, because in this episode, we're not just flying—we're doing a full 180-degree turn on our usual format! We've deployed the flaps for a fresh introduction, and Brian takes the controls to interrogate (er, interview) Micah about his recent aerial journey from Portland, Maine, all the way to Philadelphia for a very important mission: attending his niece's wedding. But first, we're diving into the mailbag! Listener Murilo sent in an audio message wanting the full story behind why your host refuses to check a bag—is it a matter of principle or just an overly large carry-on? Then, Listener Peter details a mid-flight issue with his seating assignment, asking for our expert guidance on how we would have navigated the turbulence of that awkward situation. For the main event, we get all the from Micah's trek on American Airlines, dissecting the journey from the tarmac to his landing at the Marriott Residence Inn.  We also cover his ground haul to the wedding venue, including a key fuel stop to catch a football game. Micah took a deliberate detour to a local kosher deli, and the food was so utterly divine, it completely ruined his dining experience at the swanky Chase Sapphire Lounge. And as always, our ears are blessed by the utterly soul-stirring, goosebump-inducing sounds of the Madalitso Youth Choir! Their Welcome and Goodbye songs, recorded straight from the Royal Livingston Hotel in Zambia, are pure magic.

 "It wasn't just about getting more, it was about getting more to make a difference." —Bob Harrison   Some moments shake our confidence in what is possible. Old stories rise up, limits feel real, and self-doubt starts calling the shots. Then a new idea comes along and reminds us that a bigger life waits on the other side of the thinking that once kept us safe. Dr. Increase, Bob Harrison, shares how early conditioning, scarcity thinking, and personal loss shaped his approach to abundance. His journey reveals how a shift in mindset can ripple into faith, family, business, and long-term purpose. Press play for a wake-up call wrapped in real stories, practical wisdom, and a few laughs from a man who rebuilt more than once. Topics include: • The hidden programming that limits growth • Fixed pie thinking and how it steals opportunity • Why increased thinking changes more than finances • Rebuilding after loss and adversity • The power of long-term stability • How generosity expands capacity • Lessons from VIP rooms, mentors, and quiet breakthroughs • Choosing discomfort as a path to higher levels   Be Inspired! with Daniel:  Website (Makings of a Millionaire Mindset) Website (Daniel Gomez Global) Facebook Facebook Group X Instagram LinkedIn Pinterest YouTube   Episode Highlights: 02:09 Meet Dr. Increase  04:17 Overcoming Fixed Pie Thinking  09:19 The Impact of Increased Thinking on Multiple Areas of Life 12:33 Handling Adversity with Increased Thinking  16:06 The Importance of Stability and Long-Term Success 28:19 Reinventing and Adapting to Change  33:53 The Reward of Increased Thinking

In this episode, experts voice concern at a get-out clause in government plans for a £500m Landscape Recovery scheme for farmers. We look at the opportunities for growers and livestock producers from Defra's Environmental Improvement Plan – and ask: is it fatally flawed? How much risk should you accept when chasing high yields? We get to grips with the new recommended list for cereals and oilseeds. African swine fever reaches Spain: we examine the impact on UK pig producers.
