I met a brilliant service provider—a woman who helped C-suite executives get clear on their personal brand. When I asked about her client experience, she said: “Oh, it's completely custom. Every single one is different.” My eyebrows raised. And my business coach radar went off. Because “completely custom” sounds luxurious—until you realize it's also completely unsustainable. She was overdelivering, undercharging, and staying stuck in the cycle of trading dollars for hours. So I asked her: What if you didn't have to keep teaching your expertise from scratch? What if your genius could be delivered at scale—without sacrificing the results? That's the heart of this week's episode of Breadwinning Business Women: Package Your Expertise into a Scalable Group Offer If you've been secretly wondering whether your work could ever be delivered in a group format, this is your episode.

Episode 128!Joining us in the studio today is Adrienne Green.  Adrienne learned early in her finance job and later as a high school math teacher that she didn't enjoy being stuck inside, tied to an office, classroom, or desk.  She got her start in real estate without any mentors or family influences by “house hacking” her basement.  As she began to invest in other real estate, she began to understand the struggles of being a solopreneur in real estate.  She was doing everything alone—managing tenants, handling maintenance calls, and tracking expenses. Her portfolio depended entirely on her, leaving no time to focus on growth.  Without systems, scaling only created more stress. Every new property just meant more work.  She was driven to transform her portfolio by running it like a business. Adrienne began creating streamlined systems, hiring a virtual team, and automating key operations, turning her hands-on, time-consuming portfolio into a scalable, profitable business. Now, as a high-energy speaker and coach, she helps other real estate investors do the same so they can scale their portfolio without working 24/7.  Tune in to hear Adrienne share how she's scaled her business and now travels the world with her family in the relentless pursuit of her dreams. Enjoy!  ============================================================================Connect with Adrienne here: Website: https://adriennegreen.com/Instagram: @arealgreenhttps://www.instagram.com/arealgreen/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ARealGreen123/Thanks for listening!

Rico talks with professor Michaéla Schippers, professor of Behavior and Performance Management about the "Letters to the Future" initiative that recently got published in a scientific paper. In the article, it is mentioned that many of the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are not being met, such as zero hunger and how "Letters to the Future" may help. Dit gesprek is overgenomen van Follow the Science / On Follow the Science: http://followthescience.nl/interviews/letters-to-the-future-challenge-a-scalable-online-tool-to-engage-management-students-with-the-sdgsEn heeft automatisch gegenereerde ondertitels in het NederlandsSchippers explains how the initiative that started years ago, has evolved into a scientifically grounded educational tool aimed at engaging management students worldwide. The  now peer-reviewed scientific paper is titled “Letters to the Future Challenge: A Scalable Online Tool to Engage Management Students with the SDGs.”  Schippers explains the review process, noting that the paper went through both initial and secondary rounds of peer evaluation before receiving final acceptance. Throughout the conversation, the core concept of the project is emphasized—encouraging students to write letters to their future selves in order to clarify life goals and develop a sense of purpose. This reflective exercise is framed as a way to motivate students to align their personal aspirations with broader societal and environmental goals. The initiative has gained traction globally, with implementation in various educational settings, ranging from universities to independent online courses. Schippers advocates for the integration of purpose-driven education in academic curricula, arguing that this enhances not only personal development but also civic responsibility. The "Letters to the Future" framework is portrayed as an accessible and scalable model for achieving this, particularly relevant to younger generations facing existential uncertainty and global crises. Schippers shares anecdotal evidence of the challenge's impact, referencing student testimonials and institutional feedback. According to her, students who participate in the challenge report a greater sense of clarity, engagement, and optimism about their role in shaping the future. Brouwer responds with curiosity and support, probing into the practical steps taken to make the tool widely available and discussing the role of technology in scaling such educational interventions. In closing, the conversation shifts toward the future trajectory of the initiative. Schippers expresses hope that the academic recognition of the paper will lend further credibility to the challenge and promote its adoption in curricula around the world. Op Potkaars: preprint: https://pure.eur.nl/en/publications/letters-to-the-future-challenge-a-scalable-online-tool-to-engage--2https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/Potkaars uitzendingen zijn gemaakt onder Creative Commons licentie. Je mag ze hergebruiken met bronvermelding, je mag ze niet hergebruiken voor commerciele doelen.Support the showSupport the show

Ep 277 Why VAs Fail (And How to Fix It) with Barbara Turley   If your A-players are bogged down in busywork—or worse, you're the bottleneck—then this episode is your wake-up call. The true cost of bad delegation isn't just time—it's lost momentum, missed profit, and mental burnout.   Why Your Team's Wasting Time (And Bleeding Profit) Most business owners know they're leaving money on the table—but they don't realize just how much it's costing them. The real profit leak? It's not your marketing. It's not your pricing. It's your people strategy—or more accurately, your lack of one. When your A-players spend half their day buried in tasks a trained assistant could do, you're not just wasting time. You're eroding profit, burning out staff, and stunting growth. In this eye-opening episode, Barbara Turley exposes the hidden cost of messy operations, bad delegation, and hiring without process—and offers a blueprint to fix it.   In This Episode, You'll Learn: The #1 reason delegation fails (hint: it's not your VA). How to build systems that free your best talent to focus on growth. Why your P&L doesn't show your biggest profit leak. The profit-first approach to optimizing human capital. What scalable delegation really looks like in a 350-person company.   Key Takeaways (A.K.A. Expensive Blind Spots): Hiring a VA without systems is like putting a race car driver in a junkyard car. Most businesses bleed profit by forcing A-players to do admin work. Bad delegation isn't about bad people—it's about bad process. High growth with low structure = burnout, churn, and cash chaos. Without an operational foundation, strategy is worthless.   Meet Barbara Turley: Barbara Turley is the Founder & CEO of The Virtual Hub, a 350-person global VA firm that's helped over 200 founders escape the weeds and scale smarter. With a background in equity trading and financial strategy, Barbara brings a sharp operational lens to business growth. Her company boasts a 95% Net Promoter Score, a 4.8-star client rating, and a track record of 50% year-over-year growth. She's the systems whisperer behind countless business transformations—and a fierce advocate for optimized human capital.   Links: https://www.linkedin.com/in/barbara-turley/  www.thevirtualhub.com FREE Delegation Masterclass: https://www.thevirtualhub.com/outsourcing-mastery-masterclass-sign-up/   Your Business Is Only as Scalable as Your Systems If your A-players are bogged down in busywork—or worse, you're the bottleneck—then this episode is your wake-up call.

Professor Gert Cauwenberghs has been working toward building brain-scale systems for decades. At the University of California San Diego, he's now one of the leaders of the Neuromorphic Commons hub, also known as Thor, which will give the wider community access to neuromorphic hardware and simulators. In this episode of Brains and Machines, he talks to Dr. Sunny Bains of University College London about his approach to making systems that use minimal energy, are highly interconnected at all levels, and are surprisingly flexible. Discussion follows with Dr. Giulia D'Angelo from the Czech Technical University in Prague and Professor Ralph Etienne-Cummings of Johns Hopkins University.

In this episode of the Scalable Law Podcast, I explore one of the most powerful tools for law firm management and long-term growth: Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). If you're looking for a sustainable way to grow your practice, reduce overwhelm, and delegate with confidence, this episode is for you. Most law firms rely heavily on their practice management software—but without the right law firm SOPs, your systems are incomplete. SOPs are what create consistency, improve onboarding, and ultimately allow you to scale your law firm without it depending solely on you. Key Segments Understanding What Law Firm SOPs Actually Are SOPs are step-by-step documented processes that outline how tasks are completed in your law firm. While software like LEAP or Smokeball helps manage day-to-day operations, it's your SOPs that provide the structure and direction your team needs to use those tools effectively. The Cost of Operating Without SOPs Without documented SOPs, your firm relies too heavily on individual memory and inconsistent training. This leads to inconsistent service delivery, bottlenecks, and team burnout. SOPs are essential to reduce risk, improve performance, and ensure business continuity when key team members are absent or move on. The Areas in Your Firm That Need SOPs SOPs shouldn't just exist for legal work—they're critical across all departments. From opening and closing files, billing and trust accounting, to handling client intake, social media, HR onboarding, and document processing, every part of your practice needs structure to scale sustainably. Why SOPs Are Essential to Scaling a Law Firm SOPs allow you to create consistency, reduce duplication, and delegate tasks without confusion. They support faster onboarding, improve team accountability, and give you the freedom to step back from the day-to-day without quality slipping. When it comes to how to scale a law firm, SOPs provide the operational backbone that allows growth without chaos. How We Help Law Firm Owners Build SOPs Inside the Scalable Law Accelerator, we work closely with law firm owners to create SOPs that support high-performing teams and smooth internal operations. We provide templates, training, and support to roll out SOPs across every area of the business—helping you move from reactive to strategic. Your Next Step to Systemise and Scale If your law firm is still relying on informal processes or ad-hoc communication, start by documenting just one core task this week. Whether it's onboarding a new client or preparing a brief, take the first step in building a firm that runs on systems, not people. My Takeaway Building a scalable law firm doesn't start with flashy software or hiring more people—it starts with clarity. And clarity comes from systems. What I've seen time and time again is that law firms that invest in creating and implementing law firm SOPs grow faster, experience less chaos, and give their owners more freedom. If your firm still relies on memory, verbal instructions, or "how we've always done it", you're holding back your potential. Documented systems don't restrict you—they liberate you. SOPs are what allow you to lead, not just manage. If This Episode Gave You Clarity or Motivation...

In this In Case You Missed It (ICYMI) article read, we revisit an article published on the interiors+sources website titled, "Commercial Materials Industry Moves Closer to Scalable Biomaterials Solutions," on April 22, 2025, written by Kenn Busch. As you listen to this mini-episode, you'll learn about the sustainability discussions and trends in biomaterials at the Heimtextil textiles and interiors fair and uncover insights into the challenges and future prospects for biomaterials in commercial interiors, including: Biomaterials are defined as materials derived from waste or byproducts—not traditional natural materials with existing supply chains. Scalability remains the biggest barrier to widespread adoption of biomaterials due to limited supply and high production costs. Spinnova's fiber technology offers a rare example of a truly scalable, low-impact biomaterial solution. Promising prototypes like Agoprene and Piñatex face durability, performance, or supply challenges that limit mass adoption. A “Yes, and…” strategy encourages integrating biomaterials alongside traditional ones rather than replacing them outright. Natural variation in biomaterials should be embraced as a desirable aesthetic, not a flaw.

In this episode, I was lucky enough to interview Aubrey Amatelli, Founder and CEO of PayRio—the first payment provider focused exclusively on alternative medicine.Aubrey shared how her roots in Silicon Valley and a traditional finance career at JP Morgan eventually led her to launch PayRio, combining her passion for cannabis and her expertise in payments. She walked me through the complicated regulatory landscape that makes payment processing for cannabis so challenging and explained how PayRio uses creative, compliant workarounds like ATM rails and wallet tech to support dispensaries and e-commerce businesses.Aubrey also opened up about the emotional transition from corporate life to cannabis entrepreneurship, including the fear and eventual empowerment that came with “coming out” on LinkedIn. Aubrey discussed how her startup journey began with cold calls and a scrappy three-person team, and how PayRio has grown to serve both mom-and-pop dispensaries and multi-state operators alike.Let's drive all the way to San Francisco and dive into Aubrey Amatelli's bold leap from Wall Street to CBD tech in this episode of The First Customer!Guest Info:PayRiohttps://payrio.co/Aubrey Amatelli's LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/aubreyamatelli/Connect with Jay on LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jayaigner/The First Customer Youtube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@thefirstcustomerpodcastThe First Customer podcast websitehttps://www.firstcustomerpodcast.comFollow The First Customer on LinkedInhttp://www.linkedin.com/company/the-first-customer-podcast/

Rich Hagberg, often referred to as “Silicon Valley's CEO Whisperer, psychologist and co-author of Founders Keepers, has advised over 1,000 executives and founders. In this conversation, he outlines why most startup leaders fail, and what the data reveals about those who succeed. Some key insights include: “Founders, overwhelmingly, are visionary evangelists… but they're not particularly good at execution.” Hagberg's research shows that unsuccessful founders often score low on execution and relationship-building. They resist structure, delay key hires, and react impulsively under stress. “You can change your behavior to some degree, but it's very hard to change your fundamental personality.” Hagberg encourages founders to identify three to four behaviors they can realistically improve, such as delegation, feedback seeking, and stress management. “You need to go from being a doer to a facilitator of doing.” Scalable leadership requires building teams that complement the founder's own gaps and letting go of tasks that dilute impact. “Startups are almost a Darwinian survival of the fittest… the unsuccessful ones are more impulsive and reactive.” Stress and poor self-regulation directly impact team trust and decision quality. Founders who succeed tend to manage energy deliberately and maintain self-awareness. “If we had to zero in on one thing that is the biggest differentiator, it's adaptability. You never have permanent product-market fit.” Hagberg shares why openness to feedback and reflection is often more predictive of long-term success than IQ or charisma. “I realized I was creating a culture that reflected my strengths and weaknesses. If I was going to make the company better, I had to grow as a leader.” This conversation is for founders, investors, and operators who want to understand the behavioral patterns that quietly shape success or failure in startups. It delivers clear, evidence-based insights into what it takes to lead effectively as complexity scales.   Get Rich's new book here: https://shorturl.at/YsQcl Founders, Keepers: Why Founders Are Built to Fail, and What it Takes to Succeed   Here are some free gifts for you: Overall Approach Used in Well-Managed Strategy Studies free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/OverallApproach   McKinsey & BCG winning resume free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/resumepdf   Enjoying this episode?

What if the riskiest part of your business was just saying what it is out loud? Katie Diasti didn't plan to start a company about periods – especially not one she'd pitch to rooms full of confused, uncomfortable investors. But when a college class project opened her eyes to just how outdated and wasteful the period care aisle was, she couldn't unsee it. That spark turned into Viv, a sustainable, stigma-smashing brand that's changing how people learn about and experience their periods. Host Andrea Marquez unpacks what it really takes to build something bold in a space full of silence. You'll walk away with a deeper understanding of how education can be a growth strategy, how community can be a business tool and why sometimes the boldest thing you can do is say the quiet part out loud and start a conversation. If you've ever felt like your idea was too taboo, too weird, or too risky – Katie's story will show you that that might not be the red flag you think it is.

Welcome to a new episode of Business Lunch! In this episode, Roland Frasier and Ryan Deiss tackle the controversial topic of 'shadow standards' in the workplace. They explore the ethics and implications of employees outsourcing their own jobs to other workers, often in other countries, without their employers' knowledge. The discussion touches on the legal, ethical, and practical ramifications of this growing trend and offers insights into how both employees and employers can navigate this complex landscape.Highlights:"Employees are outsourcing their jobs, effectively becoming mini-agencies themselves.""Is it deceptive if you wouldn't proudly announce what you're doing?""Good employers will always support efficiency and innovative ideas.""Outsourcing your job without transparency is setting yourself up for liability."Timestamps:00:00 - Introduction 01:12 - The Great Resignation and Quiet Quitting02:49 - Ethical Dilemma: Outsourcing Personal Jobs05:30 - Employer Perspective on Shadow Standards08:49 - Legal and Security Implications12:19 - Hypocrisy and Exploitation in Shadow Work14:41 - Building a Team Ethically and Transparently18:35 - Crucial Policies and Handbook Updates20:31 - Encouraging Transparent Efficiency23:02 - The Problem with Shadow Work24:37 - The Value of High-Level Employees30:55 - Conclusion and TakeawaysCONNECT • Ask Roland a question HERE.RESOURCES:• 7 Steps to Scalable workbook • Get my book, Zero Down, FREETo learn more about Roland Frasier

Just two years ago, the launch of GPT-4 required the support of hundreds of experts, intensive computing power, and vast coordination. Today, that same process could be executed by a team of five. That is not an exaggeration. It is a signal of just how rapidly AI development is accelerating. In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I'm joined by Gagan Tandon, Managing Director of AI & Data Services at TELUS Digital Solutions, to explore what is behind this extraordinary shift. From the evolution of AI chip design to the efficiency gains from smarter algorithms and open-source tools, Gagan offers a clear and grounded look at how AI training has become more accessible and less resource-intensive. But the bigger question is, what can we do with that efficiency? For Gagan, the answer lies in impact. Whether it is addressing bottlenecks in global supply chains, enhancing diagnostics in healthcare, or reducing fraud in financial services, these advances in AI development are not just theoretical. They are opening new doors for innovation across industries. We also explored how TELUS Digital Solutions supports enterprise transformation through its Fuel iX platform, which helps organisations transition from GenAI pilots to scalable, secure, ethical, and practical production systems. Gagan shared examples of how large-scale transformation can be approached with agility, especially when AI is aligned to specific business outcomes rather than simply layered on top of existing systems. This conversation goes far beyond model training. It is about what's next in AI operationalization, what business leaders should prioritize when it comes to adoption, and how to avoid common pitfalls as technology continues to evolve faster than many are prepared for. So how did we go from 300 engineers to five? What should enterprises be doing right now to take advantage of this momentum? And how can we make sure that efficiency does not come at the cost of responsibility? Join us as we explore the answers.

In this powerful conversation, host Kirsten Tyrrel sits down with Lesle Lane from Studio 13 to uncover how she turned a multi-generational legacy into a thriving corporate photography brand.
