    When his filmmaking career stalled during the pandemic, Toby Lockerbie turned to the one place that had never stopped inspiring him: the Universe. With no background in visual effects, he taught himself the tools needed to transform complex space science into cinematic stories using everyday objects and beautifully crafted visuals to make the Cosmos feel human. His channel, Epic Spaceman, now reaches millions and has earned multiple Webby Awards for its innovative approach to visualizing scale, awe, and accessible science. This week on Planetary Radio, Toby joins host Sarah Al-Ahmed to discuss the creation of Epic Spaceman, how visual metaphors can change how we understand the Universe, and why awe remains one of the most powerful tools for science communication. Then we welcome Bruce Betts back for What’s Up, where we reflect on the end of the Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency’s Akatsuki mission to Venus.

    Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Is your agency growing fast but still running without the right structure or leadership team to sustain that growth? If too many people are reporting directly to you, it's a clear sign you've outgrown your current setup. But building that next layer of leadership isn't as simple as promoting your top performers. Without a clear strategy, those well-intentioned promotions can backfire, causing confusion, turnover, and setbacks that stall your agency's momentum. Today's featured guest learned that lesson firsthand. After experiencing a year of costly turnover caused by the wrong management moves, he came away with a better understanding of what real leadership development looks like. In this episode, he'll share what it takes to scale beyond seven figures, the mistakes that nearly derailed his agency's growth, and the key shifts that helped him build a stronger, more sustainable business. Brandon Rost is the founder and CEO of be Marketing, a Pennsylvania-based advertising agency that helps brands grow through creative, digital, and media strategies. Over the past decade and a half, Brandon has built his agency from a solo operation into a multi-million-dollar powerhouse by focusing on relationships, resourcefulness, and relentless problem-solving. He's proof that you don't need to have all the answers when you start, just the willingness to figure it out along the way. In this episode, we'll discuss: How to reinvest profits strategically to scale your agency sustainably. Why promoting top performers doesn't already create effective leaders. The KPI's and systems that improved profit and cash flow. The mindset shift that turns fast growth into longterm success.

At the time, he was managing social media for a corporate job and bartending on the side when a PR firm owner offered him a shot at managing her clients' social accounts. What started as ten small accounts quickly snowballed into a full-time business. Like most early-stage entrepreneurs, he had no idea what he was doing at first. He sent invoices in Word documents, figured out HR and finance on the fly, and said "yes" to every opportunity—then learned how to deliver later. It wasn't glamorous, but it worked. That resourcefulness became his superpower. As anyone who has grown a business can tell you, success comes from resourcefulness - not knowing everything. You don't have to know everything right now. Just figure it out and make it work. Scaling Up: Investing Every Dollar Back In the Agency For the first few years, Brandon kept bartending to cover his bills and put every dollar the agency made back into growth. That discipline gave him the runway to build a real company without debt or short-term panic. He hired his first part-time employee within a year, went full-time around year two, and hit seven figures by year four in 2014. However, crossing the million-dollar mark didn't come with confetti and fireworks. It came with more responsibility, more moving parts, and a steeper learning curve. "Everyone thinks hitting a million feels different," Brandon said. "It doesn't. It just brings on more work." Instead of waiting for that milestone to magically change things, focus on building the right foundation so the business can continue to grow without you doing everything. Make it a point to continue to delegate part of that workload every quarter, and after a couple of years, you'll find you've gotten your freedom back. Learning to Lead and Let Go: Building a Leadership Team Brandon learned the hard way that leading people requires a completely different skill set than landing clients. As the agency grew, he at one point had seventeen people reporting to him and eventually realized it just wasn't sustainable. It was the right moment to create different positions that would oversee different departments. However, his strategy was flawed at first; "We elevated people just to elevate them," he said. "And it set us back a year." He never stopped to ask whether or not those employees were ready or even suited for management roles. As a result, they dealt with a year of turnover followed by slowly getting back on track. The lesson for Brandon was: put the right people in the right seats, and don't assume your best technician wants to—or should—manage others. Leadership isn't a promotion; it's a whole new role. Knowing Your Numbers and Turning Chaos Into Profitability Once the business hit its stride, Brandon turned his focus to profitability. He shared how the agency once got caught in a dangerous cash flow loop of collecting Google ad payments for clients and effectively becoming a bank instead of a marketing firm. After untangling that, his team started tracking key KPIs more closely: AGI (Agency Gross Income) in the 55–60% range Net profit around 10–12% Payroll around 33% of AGI By simplifying operations and separating client media costs from agency revenue, they stabilized cash flow and built a healthier margin. Simply put, what you measure improves and, for Brandon, that meant finally treating the numbers as a steering wheel instead of a rearview mirror. Sales: The Last Most Agency Owners Are Ready to Hang Up Even after 15 years, Brandon still handles most of the sales himself. It's something he admits he should've delegated earlier, but building a sales team isn't as easy as hiring a "radio guy" and hoping they sell. After two failed attempts, Brandon realized the problem wasn't the salespeople but rather the lack of systems. Now, the new plan is to support the team with brand marketing, create a "sales tackle box" full of proven client stories, and build repeatable processes for outreach, follow-up, and closing. You'll always be the best salesperson until you document what's in your head. With the right structure and stories in place, a sales team can finally scale what made the founder successful in the first place. What Scaling Fast Taught Him About Patience and Culture Looking back, Brandon said the biggest surprise was how much patience real growth takes—and how easy it is to lose sight of culture while scaling fast. Whether it was figuring out HR policies, managing team dynamics, or setting boundaries for office events, every new level came with a new layer of learning. He now focuses on balance: growing deliberately, empowering leaders, and making sure the culture that got them here doesn't get lost along the way. "We've learned to grow smarter, not faster," he said. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset? Looking to dig deeper into your agency's potential?

    Ever feel like you're hustling nonstop but still wondering, “Why isn't this moving faster?” Or maybe you've hit that invisible wall where the business is growing… yet somehow you're not growing with it? In this episode of the Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm jammin' with David Guttman, a serial entrepreneur, executive leader, and business strategist with over 35 years of building, scaling, and exiting multiple eight and nine-figure companies. This dude is a three-time Inc. 500 entrepreneur, has an undergrad in Computer Science from Brown University, an MBA from Wharton, and has led teams of hundreds while growing companies from near-bankruptcy to blockbuster exits. He's lived the startup grind, the CEO pressure-cooker, the investor negotiations, the due diligence marathons — all of it.But what makes David so special isn't the titles. He's lived real adversity, made real money, lost real sleep, and came out with clarity, humility, and wisdom worth borrowing.In this episode, we dive into everything from raising capital to avoiding the trap of traditional education… from avoiding burnout to leveraging AI… from building healthier relationships to firing your worst customers. The breadth of knowledge he brings is crazy, but the heart behind it is even better.David breaks down the single biggest mistake entrepreneurs make when trying to raise money or prepare for an exit, failing to budget and forecast. He explains why “dollar cost average into Bitcoin” may be smarter than chasing shiny objects, why AI will replace those who don't use it, and why authenticity beats any degree, credential, or fancy LinkedIn headline.Here are a few key takeaways from the episode:Your business is blind without a budget. If you're not forecasting, tracking, and adjusting, you're not running a company — you're gambling. A real financial model acts like a crystal ball and boosts your valuation instantly.Mentorship beats an MBA every time. David explains why working for a powerhouse leader (even for free) will fast-track your growth more than any traditional education ever could.Fire your worst customers. They drain 80% of your energy and slow your growth. Raise your price until they leave — or until they become worth it.AI is the new calculator — ignore it and get left behind. Spend a couple hours a week learning and applying it, and you'll leapfrog the competition. Avoid it, and you'll get replaced.Authenticity wins the long game. The world is noisy. People trust people — not institutions. Build a personal brand rooted in truth, service, and value.David also breaks down the real reason businesses stall during acquisitions, how to build the right board of advisors, why fast “no's” are better than slow “maybe's,” and why success feels empty unless your relationships, health, and integrity stay intact along the way.This episode is for every entrepreneur who wants to scale without losing themselves. For every hustler who wants to work smarter, earn more, and still be present for the people who matter. And for every dreamer who knows there's more in the tank, more impact, more purpose, more joy.If you're ready to level up how you build, how you lead, and how you live, then you've gotta tune into this full conversation. David drops tactical wisdom, real-world stories, and mindset shifts you'll want to revisit again and again.What does Happy Hustlin mean to you? David says it's like, if you can enjoy the journey, then what's it all for?

    Building a strong company starts with strategic foundations for business growth. In Part 1 of our interview with Charly Leetham, we explore how clarity, customer understanding, and simple systems help businesses grow with confidence. Her insights show how the right strategic groundwork leads to long-term success. About Charly Leetham Charly Leetham brings more than 40 years of hands-on experience in building practical, reliable systems for small businesses. She earned her amateur radio license at 13, became an electronic engineer by 21, and completed her MBA while working full-time and raising two young children. Her career has spanned technical support, sales, project management, and client services, giving her a deep understanding of both technology and people. After running multiple franchises and overcoming a major business setback, she founded Ask Charly Leetham—now a long-standing digital services company supporting clients across Australia, the U.S., and beyond. Known for her clear, no-nonsense approach, Charly specializes in turning complex tech into simple, workable solutions. She also hosts Rise and Shine – Your Business Tech Boost, offering practical guidance to business owners who want answers they can trust. Facebook, Twitter / X, YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, Website Strategic Business Foundations Start With the Right Questions Charly opened the conversation with a key insight: you cannot build a strong business without asking strong questions. These questions shape your strategic business foundations and guide the decisions that follow. "Before you build, you must know what you're building and why." – Charly Leetham Too many business owners rush into action without defining their audience or validating the problem they're trying to solve. Charly recommends asking: Who is the ideal customer? What problem are we solving? Why does this solution matter? How will we measure success? These questions are simple, yet they prevent misalignment and wasted effort. Understanding Your Customer Is Key to Strategic Business Foundations Charly highlighted that meaningful customer insight is essential. Many entrepreneurs claim to understand their customers, but they rely on assumptions rather than evidence. This weakens their strategic business foundations and often leads to products that miss the mark. She encourages leaders to: Listen actively Observe behavior, not just opinions Identify real pain points Understand motivation and constraints "Your customers will tell you what they need—if you give them space to speak." This approach ensures your solution fits the customer's world—not just your idea of it. Simplicity Strengthens Strategic Business Foundations One of Charly's most powerful insights is the importance of simplicity. Many founders believe complexity signals value, but Charly argues that clarity creates far stronger strategic business foundations. She recommends: Stripping out non-essential features Using simple, direct language Focusing on the core value Removing any friction that confuses customers "If your customer can't understand what you do, they won't buy from you." Simplicity improves messaging, operations, and customer experience. Systems and Processes Anchor Your Strategic Business Foundations According to Charly, strong systems are not optional—they're essential. Businesses often wait too long to document processes or create workflows. This delay weakens their strategic business foundations and makes growth harder. Systems help businesses: Deliver consistently Delegate confidently Provide predictable customer experiences Avoid repeated mistakes Scale with stability Templates, automations, and repeatable processes transform chaos into structure. Final Thoughts: Building Strategic Business Foundations That Last Part 1 of our interview with Charly Leetham offers a powerful reminder: success begins with strategic business foundations. When you ask the right questions, understand your customers, simplify your offerings, and build systems early, you create a business that can grow with confidence and purpose. Stay tuned for Part 2, where we explore how automation, alignment, and intentional tools help businesses expand on these foundations and operate more efficiently.

    Did you work your ass off to hit a huge milestone, and now you feel more stressed, tired, and overwhelmed than before? The success hangover is real, and it's stopping ambitious group practice owners and mega successful solo practitioners like you from enjoying what you've built. You finally scale to multiple six figures, fill your calendar, buy that dream home, and instead of celebrating, you're buried under more responsibility, wondering, "Wait, is this it?"In this episode, I'm breaking down why this happens and what you actually need to do about it. We're talking about the systems and delegation that will save your sanity, the difference between actual rest and just numbing out on your phone, and how to stop being trapped in that buzzy, exhausted cycle even after you've "made it." I'm also sharing my favorite mindset practice for releasing all those fears that show up with success, and how to figure out what lights you up next.If you've been grinding hard and finally reached your goal but feel anything but fulfilled, this one's for you.Topics covered on Success Hangover:What a success hangover is and how it keeps you from growing further or enjoying what you've builtSystems and delegation strategies you need to implement as your practice grows more complexIdentifying what actually restores and refreshes you vs what just turns your brain off, and why choosing real rest is criticalThe mindset practice I use with clients to release all the anxious thoughts that swirl after a big up-levelThe ‘Buy Back Your Time' framework for understanding which tasks to remove from your plate first based on income generation and personal fulfillmentResources from this episode: Buy Back Your Time by Dan MartelConnect with Felicia:Get my freebie & join the email list: The Magic SheetsInstagram: @the_bad_therapistWebsite: www.thebadtherapist.coachFacebook group: Healing MoneyQuote:“ At a certain point, you need to start delegating and leveraging the increase in income to start to buy back your time so that you can rest and refocus your energy on continuing to grow your business.” - Felicia
