Podcasts about strategic

In this podcast episode, I'm joined by Lurch and Patreon Member (and Indian Motorcycle rider) Anthony Peters.  We talk about the big announcement that Polaris sold off it's majority ownership of Indian Motorcycles.  In one of the biggest shake-ups the motorcycle world has seen in years, Polaris has announced that it's selling a majority stake in Indian Motorcycle to the private equity firm Carolwood LP.  This move has many riders and industry insiders asking the same question — is Indian Motorcycle in trouble, or are they gearing up for something big?  It's a bold, unexpected shift that could either ignite new growth or put the brand in a risky position. Let's take a closer look at what's really happening and why it matters. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE According to Polaris, this separation will allow both companies to focus more strategically on what they do best.  For Polaris, that means doubling down on its most profitable segments: off-road vehicles, snowmobiles, and boats.  Indian Motorcycle only accounts for about 7% of Polaris' total annual revenue — roughly $478 million.  By selling Indian, Polaris expects to increase annual earnings by $50 million and boost earnings per share by $1.00, which is a solid short-term win for shareholders.  For Indian, this could mean more freedom to innovate and make faster decisions without having to compete for corporate attention within Polaris' massive portfolio.

Competition breeds innovation.  Indian has pushed Harley to improve their bikes, tech, and customer experience — and vice versa.  If one of these brands fails, the other risks getting complacent. We need both Indian Motorcycle and Harley-Davidson to succeed because their rivalry drives progress, creativity, and the kind of passion that fuels the entire riding community. This next chapter is going to be fascinating — two legendary brands, both with new CEOs, both looking to make their mark in a changing motorcycle landscape.

I'm thrilled to share my conversation with Madeline Tomseth, a fourth-generation member of the Les Schwab Tire family who is reimagining what it means to steward family wealth through intentional philanthropy. Madeline's journey from growing up immersed in a relationship-driven family business to navigating the unexpected sale of that business offers profound insights into identity, values, and creating meaningful impact. You'll hear about how she's channeling her great-grandfather's legacy of radical generosity into her own donor advised fund and working alongside other next-gen philanthropists to reimagine impact investing. Madeline opens up about the emotional journey of inheriting wealth, defining her own identity separate from family legacy, and how she and her husband navigate money and values together. Key Topics: Growing up in the Les Schwab family where service and people-centered leadership were core values Following her creative passion to pastry school and learning the power of food to create community Processing the unexpected sale of the family business and the grief that came with it Wrestling with worthiness as a wealth inheritor versus wealth generator Founding her own donor advised fund to honor legacy while finding her own voice Viewing nonprofit support as true investments rather than one-time gifts How next-gen philanthropists are aligning their entire portfolios with their values Connect with Madeline online: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/madelinetomseth/   Find more from Syama Bunten: Instagram: @syama.co, @gettingrichpod Website: wealthcatalyst.com Podcast: wealthcatalyst.com/getting-rich-together-podcast Download Syama's Free Resources: wealthcatalyst.com/resources Wealth Catalyst Summit: wealthcatalyst.com/summits Speaking: syamabunten.com Big Delta Capital: www.bigdeltacapital.com

You think you're being responsible. Strategic. High-performing.But what if the very thing you're calling “productive”… is actually self-rejection in disguise?If you've ever replayed a decision 47 times, over-edited a post, or delayed a launch “until it's perfect” — this episode will hit home. In this raw and transformational solo, George Bryant breaks down the insidious trap of perfectionism, how it's stealing your peace, your profit, and your power — and exactly how to break free.What You'll Learn in This Episode:The real identity of perfectionism (hint: it's not about productivity)10 signs you're stuck in the perfectionism trap (and may not know it)6 places perfectionism originates — and how to heal them10 powerful tools to rewire your brain for action, not paralysisWhy perfectionism costs you money, impact, relationships — and peaceHow to rebuild your progress muscle (and ditch the “perfect” prison) Key Takeaways:✔️Perfectionism is not a standard — it's a fear.✔️Productivity isn't about doing it all — it's about doing what matters, imperfectly.✔️Awareness creates choice. Once you see where it started, you can rewrite it.✔️Progress beats perfect. Always.✔️Your worth isn't in flawless execution — it's in consistent, courageous action.✔️Perfectionism is a form of self-sabotage. And it's costing you more than you realize.✔️Rewiring starts with honesty — and a little help from your support network. Timestamps & Highlights:[0:00] – Perfectionism is self-rejection in disguise[3:56] – The perfectionism trap (and why it's so sneaky)[6:45] – 10 signs you're stuck in perfectionism (micromanaging, overthinking, burnout & more)[21:38] – Where perfectionism really comes from (childhood, culture, trauma, and identity)[33:10] – The 10 tools to overcome it: how to shift into action, progress, and freedom[44:30] – Why peace comes from progress, not perfection[47:30] – Free journal prompts + invitation to share this episode Your Challenge This Week:Ready to break the perfectionism trap?Share this episode with a fellow entrepreneur or friend stuck in the cycleGet the free journal prompts in the show notesDM George on Instagram @itsgeorgebryant and say: “I'm done with perfectionism. Help me stay accountable.”Bonus: Free Journal PromptsJournaling Prompts to Break Free from Perfectionism1. Know Where It Came From - “You can't heal what you won't face.”What early experiences shaped how I define success or self-worth?Where in my childhood or past did I learn that being perfect was necessary for love, safety, or approval?2. Embrace Imperfection as Part of Growth - “Mistakes are not detours — they're data.”When have I grown the most from something that didn't go as planned?What would change in my business if I saw imperfection as progress?3. Set Realistic Standards - “Perfection is not the goal. Progress is.”Where am I holding myself to impossible or unsustainable expectations?What does ‘good enough to launch' actually look like in this season?4. Prioritize Action Over Perfection - “Waiting for perfect is just a form of hiding.”What decision or project am I avoiding by telling myself ‘it's not ready yet'?What's the smallest action I could take today that moves it forward?5. Delegate with Trust, Not Control - “Trying to do everything yourself is a fast track to burnout.”Where in my business am I still trying to control outcomes because I don't trust others?What task could I delegate this week that would give me breathing room?6. Challenge Self-Criticism - “Your inner critic is not the truth — it's just a habit.”What are some common phrases I say to myself when I feel behind, messy, or ‘not enough'?What would I say to a close friend in that same situation — and how can I say that to myself now?7. Recognize the Cost of Perfectionism - “If perfection is your standard, joy will always be out of reach.”What has chasing perfection actually cost me in energy, time, or peace?What could I gain — emotionally, financially, relationally — if I let perfectionism go?8. Celebrate Progress - “Success is made of stacked micro-wins.”What wins (big or small) have I skipped over this week without celebrating?What would it feel like to pause and fully receive them?9. Use Feedback as Fuel - “Feedback is a mirror, not a verdict.”What recent feedback triggered me — and why?If I separate ego from evaluation, what useful insight does this feedback hold?10. Create a Support System - “You weren't meant to do this alone.”Who are 1–3 people I trust to hold me accountable and remind me of my worth when I forget?How can I intentionally ask for their support, feedback, or truth this week?Let's rebuild your business from the inside out:Join The Alliance – The Relationship Beats Algorithms™ communityApply for 1:1 Coaching – Strategy that serves your soul and your systemsLive Events – Get in the room where deep clarity happens: mindofgeorge.com/event

In this insightful Market Mondays clip, hosts Troy Millings and Rashad Bilal break down their latest moves and strategies with AI chip stocks, focusing especially on Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC or TSM). Rashad kicks things off by recapping a bold call made when TSM stock pulled back—highlighting the real-time decisions that set successful traders apart. Troy shares his long-standing affinity for TSM, which dates back years, and details his own strategic options stack, entering new positions as the stock fluctuates.What makes TSM so vital in the current tech landscape?

With TSMC's key earnings event and the steady increase in quarterly performance, the hosts discuss both the short-term trading opportunities and the long-term investment potential.But it's not just about the numbers. The conversation turns to the bigger picture: TSMC's critical role in the supply chain, the geopolitical pressures influencing its business, and the fast-tracking of new American plants in Arizona. Troy muses about how TSMC's global presence and U.S. expansion ensure supply chain security—a lesson learned after the disruptions of 2020. They also touch on governmental moves pushing leading chipmakers like TSMC and Micron to manufacture on American soil, securing both economic and national security interests.The clip offers an exclusive glimpse into the duo's investment process, showing how understanding both company fundamentals and macro trends is crucial when trading volatile AI chip stocks.*Key topics covered:* Why TSMC (TSM) is a linchpin for AI and chip stocks globally Strategic options trading and timing entries during stock pullbacks The impact of TSMC's earnings reports and catalyst events Geopolitical forces shaping the chip industry U.S. initiatives to control and secure semiconductor supply chains Reflections on Warren Buffett's TSMC involvement and industry insightsWhether you're a seasoned investor or new to the chip stock game, this Market Mondays clip provides invaluable inside perspective on what's shaping the market for AI and semiconductor stocks right now!*Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more real-time market analysis, investing tips, and discussions on global trends every week!**#MarketMondays #TSMC #SemiconductorStocks #AIStocks #OptionsTrading #Investing #StockMarket #Geopolitics #ChipStocks #SupplyChain #WarrenBuffett #Nvidia #Broadcom #AMD*---

Russia Debates Orbit and Costs for Post-ISS Space Station. Anatoly Zak explains how Roscosmos faces a debate over the orbit of its new space station: a low-inclination 51-degree orbit or a more expensive near-polar orbit. The polar orbit offers strategic Arctic observation but increases radiation risk and reduces payload capacity. Economic realities may push Roscosmos toward the cheaper 51-degree orbit, possibly using existing ISS infrastructure, to ensure an operational station for cosmonauts by 2031. 1957

What really happens when two people kiss? Far more than you think. From the brain chemistry it triggers, to the subtle information you're exchanging, to the dozens of muscles involved — kissing is a complex act with fascinating effects on both body and mind. https://www.thehealthy.com/family/relationships/6-ways-kissing-makes-you-stronger/#ixzz3kK7pLATk “Be authentic.” You've heard that advice countless times — but what does it actually mean? Do you really have one “authentic self”? And if so, why are the less admirable parts of that self rarely included in the conversation? My guest Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic — Chief Innovation Officer at ManpowerGroup, professor of business psychology at University College London and Columbia University, and author of Don't Be Yourself: Why Authenticity Is Overrated (and What to Do Instead) (https://amzn.to/4mBCbM9) — argues that authenticity is often misunderstood and even harmful. He reveals a smarter way to think about who you are and how you present yourself. There has never been a moment in recorded history without war. Not one. So, is war inevitable — a hardwired part of human nature? Neuroscientist Nicholas Wright explores this question, drawing from his research on the brain, technology, and security at University College London, Georgetown University, and the Center for Strategic and International Studies, where he also advises the Pentagon Joint Staff. He's the author of Warhead: How the Brain Shapes War and War Shapes the Brain (https://amzn.to/42YWADU), and he offers a provocative look at whether humans are doomed to fight — or if peace is truly possible. Finally, what's in your purse or briefcase could be hurting you more than you realize. Carrying too much weight around day after day can wreak havoc on your body. In this closing segment, I'll explain the hidden dangers of an overloaded bag — and what you can do about it. https://www.lutherandowntownhospital.com/health-library/272 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!!!

Overview: In this episode of Thriving Practice, Tracy Cherpeski tackles one of the biggest challenges healthcare practice owners face: protecting strategic thinking time in an environment where everything feels urgent. Through the compelling story of Dr. David—an ER physician who opened a regenerative medicine practice—you'll discover why your blocked strategic planning time keeps getting hijacked, and learn the exact framework for distinguishing between genuine urgency and habitual urgency. This is part two of the time leadership series, and it's essential listening for any practice owner who's ever wondered why their "do not disturb" time never actually happens.  Click here for full show notes  Download the Time Leadership Workbook  Episode Highlights:  Why healthcare practice owners are uniquely vulnerable to losing strategic thinking time  The difference between urgency in clinical care versus practice operations  Dr. David's breakthrough: discovering 15 hours per week of delegable tasks through time tracking  The three questions that help you triage your time like an ER triages patients  The ABCD prioritization framework for categorizing tasks and interruptions  How to create decision-making frameworks that eliminate recurring interruptions  Why tracking your time for just three days can reveal patterns you can't unsee  Memorable Quotes:  "Your strategic thinking time doesn't disappear because healthcare is unpredictable. It disappears because you haven't distinguished between what's genuinely urgent and what just feels urgent."  "In clinical settings, urgency often correlates with importance. But here's the trap: you've imported that same urgency response pattern into every aspect of your practice. And in the business side of healthcare, urgency rarely equals importance."  "You cannot fix what you cannot see."  "The question isn't 'is this urgent?' The question is 'is this urgent and only I can handle it right now?' That's a very different standard."  Ready to reclaim your strategic thinking time? This episode gives you the audit framework and prioritization system to start making immediate changes.

In Warhead: How the Brain Shapes War and War Shapes the Brain, Nicholas Wright argues that war and competition are rooted in human biology—in our drives for survival, fairness, territory, and belonging.Wright is a neuroscientist who researches the brain, technology, and security at University College London; Georgetown University; and the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, DC, where he also advises the Pentagon. In his new book, he explores how each region of the brain is linked to a certain dimension of conflict—explaining why war seems inevitable, yet also why peace is possible.In his conversation with Nikolaus Lang, global leader of the BCG Henderson Institute, he discusses why neuroscience is a powerful lens to understand conflict, how it helps military leaders make decisions, and why we need to give AI a prefrontal cortex to ensure it makes wise decisions in conflict situations.Key topics discussed: 01:27 | Neuroscience as a lens to understand conflict04:10 | The role of prediction error in the psychology of war07:29 | The clash between the amygdala and prefrontal cortex12:46 | How AI and its interaction with humans may influence the future of conflict18:55 | How neuroscience insights help military leaders make decisions22:13 | Training political and business leaders based on neuroscience insights

In a category flooded with fast-followers and flashy branding, Straightaway Cocktails is taking a radically different path: embracing the hard way. In this episode, founder and CEO Cy Cain reveals how the Portland-based brand is carving out a distinct space in the booming ready-to-drink category by prioritizing bar-quality cocktails crafted from in-house ingredients and held to uncompromising standards. Cy outlines a strategy rooted in deliberate, thoughtful growth rather than chasing viral trends. He dives into the brand's innovative approach to creative R&D, leveraging limited releases and direct-to-consumer exclusives to experiment boldly and gather insights that shape future core offerings.  He also highlights how investments in in-house production, B Corp certification and sustainability efforts, alongside strategic partnerships with Costco, Alaska Airlines and Shake Shack, demonstrate that a patient, craft-centric mindset and a strong brand identity can make a powerful impact in even the most crowded markets. Show notes: 0:25: Interview: Cy Cain, Founder & CEO, Straightaway Cocktails – Just hours before Taste Radio's San Francisco meetup, Cy joins Ray Latif to share highlights from Straightaway's latest cocktail lineup, including the French 77, Pickle Tini, and Golden Negroni. He underscores the brand's North Star: unwavering product quality, rooted in a deep love of cocktail culture. Cy reflects on the evolution of the RTD category and credits Straightaway's success to its focus on excellence and deliberate, sustainable growth. Strategic partnerships with Alaska Airlines and Breeze Airways have boosted exposure, while support from regional retailers and Costco has added traction and credibility. Comparing innovation to Formula 1, Cy describes it as a proving ground for bold ideas. Straightaway's mission, he says, isn't shaped by exits or investors, but by craft, storytelling, and elevating cocktail experiences. From farm-to-glass sourcing to using local ingredients – like fir needles from near Cy's childhood home – the brand stays true to its values of authenticity, sustainability, and craftsmanship. Inspired by lifestyle brands like Patagonia and Shinola, Cy emphasizes values-driven partnerships, such as a test collaboration with Shake Shack. He also shares excitement over the brand's growing recognition in top spirits competitions, including a potential Triple Crown win. Brands in this episode: Straightaway Cocktails, Stumptown Coffee, Smith Tea, Jacobsen Salt Co.

In this episode of Your Dream Business Podcast, I'm letting you right into the backstage of my recent launch for the Grow Launch Sell program. I share what went on in the bootcamp and masterclasses I ran, and I walk you through both the wins and the challenges I faced. I also break down the numbers — from ad spend to email stats to conversion rates — so you see the full picture of how the launch performed. More than anything, I want you to see how I'm treating each launch as a learning opportunity. I talk about what I'm going to keep, what I'll change next time, and why I believe in leaning into personal sales calls, leveraging current members, and scaling ad investment when the time's right.

In this episode, Dr. Reed reveals why most wellness advice fails: it tells you WHAT to do without teaching you HOW to actually do it. She shares the exact systems that saved her life—from an $8 pill organizer to weekly therapy appointments—and introduces her 5-step Strategic Self-Care Framework for women navigating major life changes. Because the problem isn't that you don't know what to do. The problem is you're being reactive instead of strategic.
