Episode description:Can you believe we're halfway through the year?! It's time for a mid-year business check-in to zoom out and catch you up on everything that has been going on.In today's episode, I'm sharing the honest behind-the-scenes of running a multi-seven-figure business while navigating life with a newborn.

Plus, I'll talk about money and why you shouldn't feel guilty for wanting more of it.This episode is your permission slip to reassess what's working, pivot with grace, and realign for the rest of 2025. Consider this your sign to do a mid-year business check-in too; maybe it's not about doing more, but about being smarter with what you already have.Topics covered in this episode:How I chose "adaptability" as my word of the year, and how has it shown up differently than expected?Changes I'm making to personalize the client experience in the Therapist to Coach Accelerator program.How my transition to motherhood has affected my business efficiency and time management.Why we should stop feeling guilty about wanting more money, especially as service providersResources from this episode:Therapreneur: A Therapist's Guide to 3x Your Therapy IncomeTherapist to Coach Accelerator programEnter The Podcast Giveaway for the chance to win one of Carly's digital products: https://thethrivingtherapreneurpodcast.com/reviewsCONNECT AND WORK WITH CARLY

Welcome to a very special 200th episode! Kim is thrilled to be joined by Crista Grasso, founder of the Simplify to Scale and Lean Out Methods, for a conversation about leading and innovating in this year of massive change in the stars. Join them as they discuss strategies for scaling, how to tap into your intuition to take big leaps, and move with cosmic timing to build their businesses!Episode HighlightsCrista shares a personal story about launching her Strategic Ops Institute brand. Despite roadblocks and timing issues, her soul-driven decision catapulted her success, proving that ideas are only as powerful as the action behind them. The conversation highlights why structure, curation, and aligning with cosmic timing are crucial in a fast-changing business landscape.Inspiring Quotes"When you have your soul leading, you become rich and powerful. You make big impact. You leave your legacy. And that's what I'm all about.""Without the execution and making it real, it doesn't get very far—other than a little bit of excitement at the time of having it and then it just falls flat."Key Questions Answered1. How can astrology and soul alignment give entrepreneurs an edge in 2025?[4:43 - 9:18] Astrology reveals unique timing and energy patterns for the year ahead. Kim Woods explains that recognizing these cosmic windows (like Jupiter entering Cancer, or Pluto in Aquarius), and aligning business moves with these, allows entrepreneurs to synchronize action and intention. The practice sharpens intuition, clarifies priorities, and helps leaders step forward when opportunity knocks. 2. What keeps great ideas from becoming business breakthroughs?[2:53-5:21] Crista shares that ideas alone are "mildly interesting" unless coupled with structure and execution. The curation of opportunities—choosing which ideas to act on and supporting them with real plans—are what transform inspiration into income. The episode emphasizes that entrepreneurship is about making things tangible, not just dreaming big.3. What role does fear play in following your soul's mission?[14:49-15:48] According to Kim, living your soul mission often comes with fear and discomfort—if you're not a little scared, you may not be stretching far enough. Facing and moving through this fear is key; those willing to lean into uncertainty will ride the "power wave" of authentic success, especially in 2025's rapidly shifting landscape.Action Steps for Visionary RebelsLeverage Astrological Timing: Pay attention to cosmic shifts throughout the year—Jupiter in Cancer, Pluto in Aquarius—when making strategic plans.Curate Your Opportunities: Not every invitation serves your highest vision. Trim, select, and weave your choices for maximum impact and sustainability.Let Your Soul Lead: If you feel fear or resistance, you might just be on the right track. Trust your intuition—and act.Join the CommunityLoved this episode?

Matt pulls back the curtain on his journey from chasing the traditional CMO dream to intentionally building a "No-Burnout" agency by making a radical, yet highly effective choice: firing bad (even profitable) clients.Discover Matt's playbook for sustainable scale and intentional leadership, including:► The eye-opening moment that led him to ditch the corporate ladder for entrepreneurship.► Why Strand Marketing is proudly bootstrapped and debt-averse, and how it aligns with their lifestyle goals.► The "No-PTSD Agency" philosophy: what it means and the non-negotiables for creating a healthy, high-performing culture (Hint: It involves not working with a**holes!).► Actionable strategies for customer acquisition for enterprise brands *outside* the typical Google & Facebook channels.► The mindset shift required to prioritize long-term sanity and team well-being over short-term toxic profits.► How to reverse-engineer your business to support the life you *actually* want to live.► Matt's advice for anyone looking to transition from a high-pressure corporate role to building their own version of freedom.This conversation is packed with candid insights for agency owners, service-based entrepreneurs, leaders aiming to build better cultures, and anyone who believes that success doesn't have to come at the cost of your sanity.

In this episode, I answer a question from a Massage therapist who is trying to figure out how to optimize their marketing to help attract quality clients using social media and trying to keep the costs relatively low.This question came from Emily, a Massage Therapist in Georgia who has been in practice for 7 years and operates her own solo business. She asked:“ I have been pretty consistent over the past year with being about 90 percent booked up in my business, but have kind of grown stagnant and bored with doing more of the traditional massage work and want to stay working more in treating injuries and chronic pain like you do, but I have no idea how to go about marketing this idea to new clients who are looking for this specific treatment and not having them think I'm just doing regular massage work. I do have social media accounts or Facebook and Instagram, but rarely post on there as most of my practice is word of mouth from other clients. I know my current clients wouldn't go for the change of doing a shorter, but more effective injury treatment like you talk about, so I need to find a way to find ideal clients outside of my current client base, but I have no clue where to even start? I don't have much budget to spend on all this, should I hire a marketing agency, start running ads, doing events or anything else? Any insights and guidance would be much appreciated. Thanks for all the information you have shared over the years, its been extremely valuable to me!”---------------We just launched our new, free soft tissue injury evaluation and treatment training, The Peak Injury Treatment Method.It is the first step in learning how to cut your treatment times in half and easily double your income so you can avoid burnout and help more people get out of pain!If you want to download the training for free, with no strings attached, just click the link below ⬇️⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click Here To Download Free Training⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Please consider joining our 'Soft Tissue Treatment Revolution' community on Facebook, where it's much easier to engage as a group.

Adapting for Growth: Lessons from Cogent Analytics with Robert and Michael In this insightful episode, Michael D. Levitt sits down with Robert from Cogent Analytics to explore how businesses can scale and thrive—even in the face of disruption. Robert shares the incredible journey of growing Cogent Analytics from a lean startup to a 250+ employee powerhouse. Their success has been built on strategic business development, organizational and process engineering, and a data-driven approach to decision-making. Resilience in the Face of Change Robert reflects on how the company navigated the pandemic by pivoting to remote work and reimagining their service offerings. Together, Robert and Michael emphasize the value of operational efficiency, cost control, and continuous learning as pillars of long-term success. The Realities of Supply Chain Disruptions The conversation shifts to the complex challenges of modern supply chain management—from tariff changes to rising goods costs. Michael sheds light on how these disruptions, like spiking egg prices due to bird flu, create ripple effects across the economy. He points out that many businesses' reliance on just-in-time inventory can leave them vulnerable in unstable markets. Strategic Response to Tariff Pauses Robert discusses how the recent pause on tariffs brought short-term relief for many companies but warns that organizations must remain vigilant and cost-conscious. He reinforces the need for smart, steady decision-making amid economic uncertainty—no matter the size of your business. The Ripple Effect of Business Decisions Michael and Robert delve into the community-level impact of business decisions. Michael shares a real-world example of a local restaurant struggling after a key government office relocation. It's a reminder that business strategy doesn't just affect balance sheets—it shapes the lives of employees, partners, and communities. Future-Focused Entrepreneurship Robert encourages entrepreneurs to think beyond short-term fires and adopt a long-term lens. From building cash reserves to embracing hard conversations about the future, he offers practical advice for leaders who want to stay relevant and resilient in an ever-evolving landscape. Surprising Success—and Platform Risks To wrap things up, Michael and Robert reflect on the unpredictability of success in today's digital world. They touch on how algorithm changes (like Facebook's) or dependence on volatile platforms (like TikTok) can create both opportunity and risk for growing businesses. If you're an entrepreneur or business leader navigating rapid change, this episode delivers valuable insight into building a business that's not just successful—but sustainable.

Welcome to a special episode of The Lindsey Anderson Show. In today's episode, I'm joined by Mike Agugliaro, a former electrician turned entrepreneur, coach, and author. Mike scaled his home services business to $32 million per year and sold it to private equity. Now, through Food Dog Group, he helps entrepreneurs elevate their lives. In this conversation, we dive deep into business growth, scaling, and the mindset that often keeps entrepreneurs stuck where they are. Guest IntroductionMike Agugliaro is an entrepreneur, coach, and author who has built and sold multiple businesses, including scaling a home services company from under $1 million to $32 million. He is the founder of Food Dog Group, a coaching organization that helps service-based entrepreneurs scale. Over 20,000 people have been trained through his organization, learning the key principles to accelerate business growth and unlock success both in their business and personal lives.Mindset First, Millions Second - Key TakeawaysThe Power of Mindset in Scaling: Business growth starts with your mindset, especially your relationship with money. Your relationship with money is crucial for scaling your business.Common Pitfalls in Business Scaling: It's not just about marketing or operations; it's about how you manage your beliefs and mindset.Practical Money Mindset Exercise: Use tools like your checkbook, credit card, and bank statements to reflect on your feelings towards money and shift to a healthier relationship.Scarcity vs. Abundance: Shifting from a scarcity mindset to an abundance mindset is essential for overcoming obstacles and scaling your business successfully.Redefining Beliefs: Changing your relationship with money and financial tools is key to unlocking business success and creating long-term growth.The Power of MindsetMike shares his personal journey, from growing up with an entrepreneurial father to his transition from employee to business owner. He discusses the shift from a scarcity mindset to embracing abundance, and how mindset is a foundational part of business success. Embracing the right mindset is key when scaling your business.Scaling Through SystemsMike emphasizes the importance of mastering marketing, sales, operations, and systems. He scaled his business from working alone as an electrician to managing 200 employees and 165 vehicles. Success, Mike stresses, comes from mastering foundational systems tailored to your business, but it's also important to recognize that every business is unique—there is no one-size-fits-all solution.Step-by-Step: Fixing Your Relationship with MoneyStep 1: Lay out your financial tools—your checkbook, cash, credit cards—and ask yourself, “How does this feel?”Step 2: Embrace both the positives and negatives of money—how have those debts or credit cards helped you? Shift from seeing them as burdens to tools for success.Step 3: Neutralize negative emotions surrounding money and focus on long-term financial benefits that will help you scale your business sustainably.Breaking Through ResistanceMike talks about how personal resistance, like self-doubt or past failures, can be reframed as an opportunity to grow. By reframing resistance, you turn obstacles into stepping stones for business success.Wisdom vs. KnowledgeMike emphasizes that wisdom (experience) is what truly sets successful business owners apart in today's world. In a world full of easily accessible information, wisdom builds authority and credibility. Mike shares an example of Dr. Phil, whose brand authority, combined with wisdom, has led to massive success.Consuming Information at the...

Discover how Lewis Crompton scaled STARTrading from $10K to $100K months by aligning business with purpose and reducing reliance on social media. In this compelling episode of Talking with the Experts, host Rose Davidson engages with Lewis Crompton, founder of STARTrading, to explore his extraordinary journey of scaling his business from $10K to $100K monthly revenues. Lewis shares invaluable insights into the strategies he employed to achieve this remarkable growth, emphasizing the importance of aligning business operations with a clear purpose and mitigating over-reliance on social media platforms. Lewis begins by discussing the inherent risks associated with building a brand solely on social media. He recounts a pivotal moment when he lost access to his social media audience, which could have been detrimental to his business. This experience underscored the necessity of diversifying marketing channels and cultivating direct relationships with clients. By focusing on delivering exceptional value and fostering a strong community, Lewis was able to sustain and even accelerate business growth despite the setback. A cornerstone of STARTrading's success is the proprietary STARTrading Method, which Lewis developed to enable individuals to trade profitably with just 30 minutes of daily commitment. This systematic and efficient approach has not only attracted a loyal client base but also facilitated scalable growth. Lewis emphasizes that understanding and articulating the unique value proposition of one's services is crucial in differentiating from competitors and commanding premium pricing. ⚙️ THREE KEY POINTS FROM THE VIDEO: 1. Diversify Beyond Social Media: Relying solely on social media platforms can be precarious; it's essential to develop multiple marketing channels and build direct client relationships to safeguard against potential disruptions. 2. Develop a Unique Value Proposition: Creating and clearly communicating a distinctive method or service, such as the STARTrading Method, can set a business apart in a crowded market and attract a dedicated clientele. 3. Align Business with Personal Purpose: Ensuring that business operations reflect personal values and purpose fosters authenticity, builds trust with clients, and contributes to sustainable growth. ✨ CONNECT WITH LEWIS: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/startradingnow LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lewiscrompton/ Website: https://startradingnow.com/ Podcast: https://startradingnow.com/podcast/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@withlewiscrompton Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/startrading_community/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/withlewiscrompton/
