Today on The Real Build, I'm joined by Dan Thrasher, president of Thrasher Group, a company that started in a Nebraska farmhouse in 1975 and has since grown into one of the Midwest's most respected names in foundation repair and structural solutions.What began as a small family operation founded by Greg and Nancy Thrasher has become a regional powerhouse with hundreds of employees and locations across multiple states. Under Dan's leadership, Thrasher has expanded its footprint, launched manufacturing through Foundation Supportworks, and built a reputation for integrity, innovation, and customer experience.In this episode, we're diving into how Dan scaled a family business into a trusted brand, navigating family business, what it takes to lead through growth, and why redefining industry standards starts with culture, not concrete.Guest Info: Dan ThrasherWebsite: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.gothrasher.com/Linkedin: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/dan-thrasher-b9580628/Host Info:Email: Bill@rkreiman.comCONNECT WITH ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:▶︎ YOUTUBE | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxAdSxHN0dIXZPhA-6p1HYA ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠▶︎ INSTAGRAM | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/imbillreiman⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠▶︎FACEBOOK| ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/billy.reiman ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠▶︎ LINKEDIN | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/bill-reim...⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠▶︎ TWITTER | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/ImBillReiman⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠▶︎ WEBSITE | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.rkreiman.com⁠

Today's guest is an absolute powerhouse of a mentor and a former 1:1 client of mine who I consider a friend by now. She is one of those women who embody what happens when you stop trying to shrink yourself into what the industry tells you to be – and instead go all in on who the fuck you actually are. Mirjam Novy has built not just one, but TWO magnetic online brands over the past 7 years – and she did not do so by obsessing over trends and rules. Instead, she showed up as her bold, intense, messy, real self. Now she helps other women build their EMPOWERED EMPIRES by turning their “too muchness” into their biggest superpower. We're diving deep into all things identity shifts and stepping into the next level, stripping away the non-literal filter, showing up as your true self, the correlation between healing work and success, fears when entering a breakthrough, the importance of embodying health feminine and masculine energy, and so much more! So babe, grab your cacao or matcha and a journal, because you're going to want to take notes and implement these golden nuggets! Curious about getting mentored 1-1 by me like Mirjam to upgrade your health, wealth and love life?I have ONE spot open for private coaching starting in December to lay the inner & outer grounds for 2026: CLAIM YOUR SPOT TO WORK WITH ME IN A PRIVATE SETTING HEREWhat's possible, you might wonder?In Mirjam's words:"The realization that I could finally SCALE once I learned how to balance my masculine and feminine energy was life-changing. I discovered that scaling doesn't work if you're hustling yourself to death, because it will never feel safe or fun. Now, for the first time, it feels safe to scale and I didn't even realize before that it hadn't felt safe. I think that's such an important point to highlight, because I think a lot of women are unaware of this (like I was).Another powerful piece is definitely how I transformed my love life. The love and appreciation I receive from the men in my life right now is iiiiinsane and I'm finally able to fully receive it."In this episode, we discuss: 00:40 - Intro to today's guest - a powerhouse mentor & former 1:1 client of mine, Mirjam Novy03:40 - Mirjam's journey and the identity shifts that allowed her to unlock her next level20:15 - Stripping away the non-literal filter in order to show up as your true & authentic self 27:25 - The correlation between identity & healing work, and success in your career36:35 - How to move through fear when entering a messy breakthrough season40:30 - Why embodying healthy masculine and feminine energy is so life-changing 51:50 - How Mirjam flipped being feminine in her business and masculine in dating59:45 - Mirjam's top tip Unfuck Your Life that you can integrate ASAPSimilar Episode: Episode 112: Becoming a top 1% feminine leader and creating a balanced lifestyle with Corinne DeFilippis—--Connect with Mirjam: Mirjam's Website: https://mirjamnovy.com/Mirjam's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ownitmirjamnovy/German Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mirjam.novy/Mirjam's Podcast: Tune into OWNING WHO THE FUCK YOU ARE here!Connect with Laura: Laura's Website: https://www.lauraherde.com/Laura's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/laura.herde/Laura's 1-1 Coaching: https://www.lauraherde.com/application-1-1Laura's Coaching Certification Course: https://www.instagram.com/embodiedcoachacademy/More free resources for you:*FREE* HEAL YOUR FEMININE ENERGY GUIDE⁠*FREE* MASTERCLASS: THE ART OF ATTRACTION (MEN & MONEY)>> EMAIL ME TO CONNECT/ ASK QUESTIONS: hello@lauraherde.com>> FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM: @laura.herde Feel free to share this episode with your bestie, and tag us on IG when you listen so we can repost you!Make sure to be subscribed to UNFUCK YOUR LIFE, we publish episodes every single Tuesday.Thank you so much for tuning in, love xx

John sits down with Harmony Brownwood, CEO & founder of GreenWorks Inspections & Engineering, to unpack how she grew from zero connections in 2009 to one of the largest independently owned inspection companies in the U.S.—now operating across six states with 11 locations, 2,500–3,000 services a month, and a runway from ~$15M toward $20M in annual revenue. Harmony shares the mindset work that kept her going for 16 months without a sale, the systems that let her scale beyond herself, and why “happy clients + happy team” is the non-negotiable core KPI.They get into how GreenWorks blends home inspections, structural engineering, and environmental services; why market flatness forces true market-share plays; and the playbook for entering new states by leading with engineering/environmental before residential inspections. You'll hear how she measures client experience (NPS, “happy calls,” QC + AI on 80k+ reports), builds SOPs that actually stick, and keeps standards sky-high while still being beloved by realtors, investors, and homeowners.If you want a concrete blueprint for scaling a people-powered, service-heavy org—without PE money, franchising, or letting quality slip—this one's for you.

In a culture where all businesses seem to be obsessed with scaling, it's time to discuss the pitfalls and downsides to doing so. Depending on your goals and desires, scaling might make you feel burned out, disconnected, and wondering why you started your business in the first place. In today's episode, I break down which businesses should and shouldn't focus on scaling and things to watch out for when you do.    Chapters 00:28 - Obsession with scaling 03:07 - Scaling ≠ success 08:05 - Personal pitfalls 19:04 - Scaling isn't a good fit if… 30:52 - Scaling is perfect for those… 36:06 - Customer issues 40:31 - Making the right decision for you   Ready to go all in on your business next year?

Send us a textA near-drowning in the Norwegian fjords set a family on a path that would change how the world learns to save lives. We sit down with Jon Laerdal, Chief Product Officer at Laerdal Medical, to explore the unlikely journey from toy design to Resusci Anne, from classroom CPR to on‑the‑unit practice that measurably improves survival.Jon pulls back the curtain on how evidence and guidelines have shaped Laerdal's resuscitation portfolio and why RQI—Resuscitation Quality Improvement—now embedded in 3,000 U.S. hospitals, is redefining competency with low‑dose, high‑frequency training. We dive into the Safer Births program in Tanzania, co‑created with the American Academy of Pediatrics and Jhpiego, where frequent, team‑based simulations on the ward correlate with dramatic reductions in newborn and maternal deaths. The thread through it all is a simple, rigorous idea: put practice where care happens, make it frequent, and let data guide improvement.We also talk about the tech landscape without the hype. VR and mixed reality bring decision‑making into virtual and blended spaces, while AI lightens scenario design and powers more responsive debriefs. But the payoff comes when these tools join a circular learning model—reading, skills, simulation, team training, and clinical practice—connected by actionable insights. That is where simulation evolves from a one‑off event to a quality improvement engine that exposes latent safety threats and closes the gap between training and therapy.If more than half of global deaths stem from time‑critical emergencies, preparing responders everywhere is not optional; it's urgent. Jon shares Laerdal's goal to help save one million more lives by 2030 and offers concrete steps educators and leaders can take to build cultures of practice that stick.

Today marks two years since I started serving on the Haslett School Board.It also marks about a decade of my fascination with education in the United States.I consider myself lucky to be in Haslett. We're not perfect, and COVID definitely impacted our kids, but our academic performance has been stronger than almost all of the surrounding communities.Especially compared to Holt, where I graduated. I say this with sadness, not superiority. Holt has not been doing well lately.This journey has taken me deep into the world of education. I've asked hard questions like, why did schools move away from using phonics instruction to teach reading?Books like The Knowledge Gap and podcasts like Sold a Story helped me understand the system, and more importantly, helped me intervene to teach our 7-year-old how to actually read.I also became a Certified School Board Member through MASB, which opened my eyes to how school districts really operate, the trade-offs, the complexity, the constraints.One of the most inspiring examples I've found is what people call the Mississippi Miracle.In 2013, Mississippi ranked 49th in 4th grade reading scores. By 2022, they were 21st overall, and top 5 in the country for Black, low-income, and special education students. They focused on direct instruction, phonics, teacher training, and retention policies. It worked.All of that has been fascinating.But nothing has impressed me as much as Alpha School.What Is Alpha School?Alpha School is a high-end private school, built from the ground up like a product, designed to make school awesome for kids. At the center is a powerful learning engine they call, Time Back. Students come in and spend just two hours a day with the AI-powered tutor. This tutor delivers direct instruction, constantly adapting based on what the student needs. As Joe puts it, your age grade and your knowledge grade are two totally different things. The system teaches to mastery, not to the average. Every lesson is personalized, every gap is closed. Students learn 10 times faster, and consistently perform in the top 1% nationally. The real unlock is time back. With core academics finished in two hours, students have four more hours each day to focus on “life skills” workshops. Getting their Time Back is a huge motivation for the students. Life skills workshops include things like leadership, financial literacy, public speaking, entrepreneurship projects like running a food truck, robotics, sports, and chess tournaments. The rest of the day is team-based, project-based, and fun. It's not screen time — it's real-world preparation. As Joe says, the key to motivation is progress and choice, and Alpha delivers both.Here's how Alpha works, and why it's blowing my mind.Alpha's 5 Core Commitments* Kids Must Love SchoolNot tolerate it: love it. Alpha students are asked, would you rather go to school or go on vacation? Last year some of their high schoolers said, can we skip summer break because we don't want to stop. That kind of love.* Kids Must Learn 10x FasterAlpha has built a two-hour academic model using AI and learning science. Students spend two hours a day with their AI tutor, and that's it. Their academic performance is in the top 1% nationally. It's not that the kids are smarter, it's that the model works better.* The Rest of the Day Is for LifeWith the academic work done in the morning, the rest of the day is for life skills. Workshops on leadership, public speaking, entrepreneurship, personal finance, and teamwork. Real skills, no busywork, no screens.* Guides Instead of TeachersAlpha doesn't have traditional teachers. They have Guides. These adults are responsible for making sure kids love school, learn quickly, and grow as people. They don't lecture. They coach, support, and hold students to high expectations.* High Standards Create Happy KidsThis one is the most opposite of all. Alpha believes happiness comes from high standards, not low ones. Kids struggle, fail, cry, and then succeed. That builds real confidence and resilience. That's the kind of happiness that lasts.What Joe Discovered About EducationJoe is not an educator. He's a systems guy. A product builder. Which means he noticed things that others missed.Here are some of the biggest things Alpha has uncovered:* Motivation is 90% of the solutionThe problem isn't attention span or tech, it's motivation. When school only takes two hours a day, every kid wants to learn. Giving kids their time back is the unlock.* Swiss cheese knowledge doesn't workIn the traditional model, kids move onto the next grade even if they only understand 70% of the material. That creates holes in knowledge and those holes lead to failure later. Alpha on the other hand, enforces mastery. Students must get over 90% before they move on.* “A” students can still be behindAlpha has seen students with 4.0 GPAs at other schools, who are actually two or three years behind in core subjects. The old system rewards compliance, not mastery. One girl had a 740 on the SAT. She went back to third grade math, fixed the foundation, and scored a 790.* Catching up takes less time than you thinkA student who is three years behind can often catch up in 60 hours. One subject, one grade level, done in 20 to 30 hours. It's not magic. It's just focus and a system that works.* Every kid can be top 10%Research shows that with a tutor and mastery-based learning, average students can outperform 90% of their peers. Alpha believes 95% of eighth graders in America could be top 10% performers with the right system.* IQ doesn't limit outcomes anymoreIn the old model, your performance was tied to your IQ. At Alpha, it's tied to your effort. That shift makes achievement a decision, not a destiny.* AI unlocks personalized learningAlpha uses generative AI to build custom lessons based on each kid's interests and knowledge gaps. They've even taught World War I through Taylor Swift metaphors. That's not a joke. It's real.Why It MattersAlpha isn't just a different school, it's a different category.This isn't an experiment. It's a product. Built with intention. Measured by results. Scaled with clarity.They're opening new campuses. They're launching specialty models like the Texas Sports Academy for D1-bound athletes. They're not slowing down.We need more conversations about this. More public awareness. More experiments. Because what we're doing isn't working. Not for kids, not for parents, not for teachers.Alpha feels like the opposite of what we've accepted as normal.And maybe that's what we need most.— What do you think about Alpha School?

In this interview, I sit down with David Price, an insurance leader who scaled his own IMO to over $10 million in annual premium in under 12 months. We break down the exact strategies, mindset, and systems that fueled his explosive growth — and how other agents can do the same.

You are not Shelby Sapp. You cannot show up with your workout set, your energy drink, and close people within two minutes on a call because you can hold frame. You have the confidence, and you have whatever secret sauce she is secreting. And that's fine.Sales is a hot topic right now. I don't know if you're on the same side of Instagram I'm on, but I keep seeing video after video of high-ticket closers teaching “how to handle objections” — these women in their twenties, making it for themselves, buying flashy cars, and saying, “I'm in sales, I can help you get into sales.”And maybe you even have a specific name popping into your head — Shelby Sapp. Sales has officially become cool.So today, I'm giving you a counter perspective. If you love that vibe — amazing. But if you're the person who thinks, “I can't sell like that. I don't even want to,” this episode is for you. Because even though I'm a sales copywriter, I realized something wild… I'm actually kind of bad at sales — and still scaled to $30K months. What You'll Learn:Why you don't need to master traditional sales tactics to scale your businessHow I grew to $30K months without cold pitching or pushy sales callsThe difference between sales skills and sales messaging (and why messaging wins)The “anti-pushy” approach to attracting clients who are already ready to buyHow to make your messaging do 90% of the work before you even get on a callYou don't have to be a closer. You don't need scripts, frameworks, or fake rapport to make sales. The right sales messaging can sell for you — so you can stop forcing it and start scaling with ease.Mentioned in This Episode:Unicorn Messaging Membership – Monthly copy roasts, co-creation calls, and behind-the-scenes strategy to make your messaging magnetic.1:1 Consulting with Lucy – Private calls or Telegram support to turn your messaging into your best salesperson.Want to become the unicorn in your industry?
