In this episode, Tom Seeko talks with Matt Arena (Founder) and Kia Banisadre (Business Development Officer) of 360 Vet Sales about what it really takes to prepare, go to market, and land a deal you'll feel good about long after closing.In this conversation, you'll learn:Misconceptions that cost owners money (it's not “corporate = bad,” and you don't have to be ready to retire tomorrow).Face value vs. market value: why competition among buyers (not just your P&L) drives price.The 12–24 month prep window: what to fix now in margins, pricing, and reporting to boost valuation.Your deal team: tax pro, financial advisor, M&A attorney—and why a broker often pays for themselves.The emotional side of selling: protecting staff, preserving standard of care, and honoring your legacy.Smarter Vet Podcast-https://flveterinaryadvisors.com/smarter-vet-financial-podcast/Watch the no cost 5-part video course to review your finances and see where you could be doing better in your finances.5 Foundational Steps to Financial Balance Video Course-http://series.flvetadvisors.com/Find out what you could be overlooking within your practice by taking our brief assessmentTest My Personal Financial IQ-https://flveterinaryadvisors.com/personal-test/Sign up for a complimentary phone call to talk about how to get better use of all the cash inside your practice.Schedule a time-https://flveterinaryadvisors.com/contact-usCheck out our social media channelsFacebook-https://facebook.com/flvetadvisors LinkedIn-https://linkedin.com/company/flvetadvisors Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/flveterinaryadvisors/ YouTube- https://www.youtube.com/@floridaveterinaryadvisors7665

On this episode of American Potential, host David From welcomes back Jordan Fischetti, Immigration Policy Fellow at Americans for Prosperity, for a deep dive into the border security provisions of the Working Family Tax Cut Act—or what some are calling the “One Big Beautiful Bill.” Jordan explains the bill's $46.55 billion investment in border infrastructure, including walls, roads, and cutting-edge technology. But it's not just about building more wall—it's about building smarter. They explore why local knowledge from Border Patrol agents on the ground is key to effective border solutions, how legal immigration pathways can help reduce illegal crossings, and why morale among border agents has been so low—and how to fix it. From drones and AI to the moral crisis of unaccompanied minors, this conversation goes far beyond headlines to tackle both the challenges and solutions in securing America's borders.

If you've ever struggled with advice you didn't want but maybe needed—or felt the clash between doing things “your way” versus “the right way for you”—you'll relate to this journey.I'm calling this approach Being Yourself the Smart Way, which means blending science & spirituality, working with professionals who care, & paying attention to your inner & outer dialogue. It's about remembering that there's no one-size-fits-all way to be yourself & live your best life. I'm creating this IHP podcast series playlist to share this journey with you.This isn't about tracking every meal or drink. It's a series of reflections on how I feel & think while doing something I don't necessarily want—or even believe I need—to do: following a diet recommended for my age (currently 45) & optimizing my health as I get older.As someone who mentors, creates content & hosts conversations about spiritual & personal growth, I see this as more than a diet plan. It's an exploration of what it means to Be Yourself the Smart Way. It's about balancing science & spirituality, left & right brain, ego & inner child. It's about recognizing there's no one-size-fits-all solution—something both smart individuals & caring, effective professionals understand.Being Yourself the Smart Way is about discovering what truly works for you. It's about freedom of choice & with the right support, aligning your well-being with your body, brain, mind, heart & self in harmony—each of us carrying a story worth sharing.Through these episodes, I'll share insights on why blending professional guidance with self-awareness matters for long-term mental, emotional, physical & spiritual health.Join me as we explore how science & spirituality together unlock authenticity, resilience & the best life for you—lived fully by being yourself.Thank you for tuning in!Love, MariaThe longer reflections for this series:This diary isn't a record of everything I eat or drink. It's a log of how I feel & think while doing something I don't particularly want to do—or believe I truly need to do. Yet, according to health professionals, it's considered ideal for my body & age.I remain skeptical & dislike being told how to manage my eating habits. The idea that this process could change my body—or give someone else “control” over my day-to-day life—bothers me. At the same time, this tension highlights my left & right brain, ego & inner child at play, creating resistance to something deemed good for me by science & society.Creating this podcast series motivates me to stay on track with my nutritionist's plan. In sharing it with you, I hope it also helps you notice how self-awareness—& Being Yourself the Smart Way—blends science with spirituality, supported by a society that truly cares about your health, not forcing you into their "perfect" model.These episodes offer insights into what it means to Be Yourself the Smart Way: recognizing why self-awareness matters, valuing skilled professionals for holistic well-being & seeing how blending science & spirituality nurtures long-term mental, emotional & physical health.Science & spirituality open the path to authenticity, resilience, well-being & living your best life.Being yourself doesn't mean stubbornly doing things your way or assuming you're always right. It means doing what is truly right for you. A healthy society encourages this, guiding us toward what serves our well-being.True intelligence is holistic: mental, emotional, physical & spiritual alignment. It means rising above dysfunctional patterns & ego distortions, letting left & right brain work together, noticing your inner & outer dialogue & recognizing there's no one-size-fits-all formula—only the smart way, tailored to you. With the right professionals & community, you can reach your highest potential.Good professionals—scientific or spiritual—know this. They don't impose personal preferences as truth. They focus on what works.Love, Maria

“Residential was never my preference. I landed here because I graduated right as the pandemic hit, and the entire industry stalled—except residential.”Or maybe you've caught yourself saying, “I'm bored with residential and want to switch to commercial projects.”Many interior designers find themselves stuck in residential work—not because it's their passion, but because it was the most accessible way to start.

She breaks down the realities of running a design firm, the challenges of transitioning into commercial projects, and the strategies that helped her thrive in a constantly evolving industry.

While it promises simplicity, Advantage Plus often hurts sports teams by prioritizing clicks over actual ticket sales, lumping all fans into one generic audience, and masking true performance with misleading metrics.Jeremy explains why manual ad setup, audience segmentation, and conversion tracking are essential to avoid wasted spend.

If you've ever felt like your product should be flying off the shelves, but instead you're getting crickets... it might be because your audience just doesn't get it yet. Not because they're dumb. Not because your product sucks. But because you're not articulating the outcome in a way that resonates with them. In this episode, we're digging into why it's not enough to just talk about what your product is or even what it does. You've gotta get to the core of what your customer really wants, and communicate that in a way that matches how they think, not how you think. We'll talk about what that looks like in practice and how to adjust your messaging to connect faster, deeper, and better... because let's face it, you don't have forever to make the sale. Here's what we'll cover in this episode: The real reason your customers don't convert right away (and how long you really have to make the sale) How to dig into the outcome your customer actually wants The power of “so that” and the secret of asking “why” five times Why your content needs to say the same thing, just in different ways How to ramp up your touch points using omni-channel marketing When your customer is most engaged and why you need to go hard right then   _______ Links Mentioned Full Show Notes https://ecommercebadassery.com/340   _______ Learn With Me Work with Me 1:1 https://ecommercebadassery.com/ecommerce-help/ https://ecommercebadassery.com/email-marketing/   Courses & Membership https://ecommercebadassery.com/membership https://ecommercebadassery.com/programs   _______   Let's Connect Website: http://ecommercebadassery.com Instagram: http://instagram.com/ecommercebadassery Membership: http://ecommercebadassery.com/membership   _______   Rate, Review, & Subscribe Like what you heard?

Shellee Howard, founder and CEO of College Ready and host of the Parents is Your Teen College Ready podcast, shares insights from her best-selling book The College Admissions Plan Simplified. Her primary focus is on parents, acknowledging that college admissions guidance is often geared toward students, while parents play a critical but under-supported role. Shellee empathizes with the exhaustion and emotional toll parents experience while helping their children navigate the complex and often overwhelming college admissions process. She stresses the importance of parental involvement, understanding adolescent brain development, and providing emotional and strategic support during this pivotal life transition.Shellee discusses the escalating costs of college tuition, citing Vanderbilt University's tuition exceeding $100,000 annually as an example of rising financial pressures. She contrasts this with her personal success using strategic planning to help her children and many other students gain admission to top-tier colleges with substantial scholarships, allowing them to graduate debt-free. Her approach emphasizes individualized strategies tailored to each student's strengths, including test preparation, community service, leadership, and securing strong letters of recommendation.The College Ready Plan has helped thousands of families secure scholarships from various sources—institutional, independent, and need-based—highlighting that scholarships are available to any family willing to invest the necessary effort, not just those with financial need. Shellee encourages parents to take an active role in the college planning and financial aid processes rather than leaving these decisions to their teenagers, who often lack awareness of the long-term impact of student debt.Finally, she invites parents feeling overwhelmed or uncertain about college admissions to reach out for guidance, offering a complimentary 30-minute discovery call to discuss personalized strategies for getting their child into their best-fit college while minimizing debt.Highlights
