Hi, and welcome back to It's Not Rocket Science five, questions over coffee. I've had some technical difficulties today, although, to be honest with you, it's probably not the coffee that's causing it. I'm delighted, however, to be here with Hela Brody. Hela is a business success coach. She really specializes in working with entrepreneurs, to create freedom in their business and their livelihood. It sounds absolutely fantastic. She's been an entrepreneur herself for thirty seven years in two vastly different industries.Stuart Webb [00:01:00]:I'm sure we're gonna get into that. And she's really got an intimate understanding of the complexity and, I believe, the simplicity business. So she's gonna help us to understand exactly how we can transform our businesses from a state of chaos to a vehicle for freedom. That's time freedom and financial freedom and the internal freedom to savor the life. So, Hela, welcome to the podcast. I really am looking forward to this, and, I'm looking forward to having a conversation about how you're gonna help us to transform these, these complex piece into something simple we can all enjoy.Helle Brodie [00:01:36]:Absolutely. It's wonderful to be here, Stuart.Stuart Webb [00:01:39]:Terrific. So, Helen, let's start with the the first question I would start with, and that's just try and describe to us, if you can, the the the person you're trying to help. I mean, you've mentioned there are things like freedom, and I think we all can all identify that sometimes as a business, we don't feel as if it's a freeing thing. So tell us about the sort of the sort of person you're trying to reach to help with these, with these problems.Helle Brodie [00:02:02]:Right. So so fifty percent of entrepreneurs admit to struggling with burnout. You know, it's the stress, the overwhelm, the sleepless nights. You know? And the the the pressure can feel exhausting and and all consuming. And, you know, it creeps into your friendships. It creeps into your family life, and it like, it even creeps into that gym membership that you promised that you'd start using next week. So as entrepreneurs, we know that we need to master our business. We know we need to be at the top of our game, and yet we've created a state of chaos in our business.Helle Brodie [00:02:40]:And after a while, it starts to starts to wear on, our our self belief, you know, and and and we we quietly start to doubt whether we can really do this, whether we're really cut out for this. Right? And so, you know, when that self doubt creeps in, we, we start to lose our confidence, We start to lose our clarity, our energy, our drive, and our creativity. And so I'm here to help people get all of that back.Stuart Webb [00:03:18]:Terrific. I'm I'm sure that you find there are, people who try to do things to help themselves in these situations. I know I come across people. I'm a I'm a big fan like yourself who sort of try and help people find ways in which to make their business something which runs on autopilot. And I know they've tried a hundred different things. They've tried the courses. They've tried the books. They've tried, a thousand and one things.Stuart Webb [00:03:41]:What what are you seeing that people, have tried before they sort of find somebody like you to help them to to produce that sort of that sort of, unblocking, in their in their business?Helle Brodie [00:03:53]:That's a great great question, Stuart. So typically what I find is that they go back to what feels safe. You know, they've looked at the courses, they've looked at, read books, they've, you know, gathered all kinds of knowledge. And so they go back to what feels safe because quite often they're feeling like they're sort of on the edge. Right? And so, you know, what feels safe? Well, working longer and harder feels safe.Stuart Webb [00:04:19]:Yeah.Helle Brodie [00:04:20]:Yeah. You know, chasing every opportunity out there feels safe, because this is what's got them to where they are now.Stuart Webb [00:04:28]:Yeah.Helle Brodie [00:04:28]:The challenge is that what's got them to where they are now isn't necessarilyStuart Webb [00:04:33]:It's taken to where they are.Helle Brodie [00:04:34]:To the next level.Stuart Webb [00:04:36]:Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely.Helle Brodie [00:04:38]:Yeah.Stuart Webb [00:04:38]:Now I think I think you've got a really valuable free offer that you are gonna give to the and I'm just gonna let everybody know, know that, we're gonna put this in our vault. So you don't have to remember this. This will be in the vault, so you'll see it. But Helen's got a really valuable offer to help people with this. So, Helen, can you tell us about the the really interesting offer that you've got that you're gonna help with today?Helle Brodie [00:05:02]:Yeah. It's called the Entrepreneurs Freedom Formula. Wonderful. What it is, it is it, outlines 10 areas of your business that, I can say you should, you could look at. It would be advisable to look at to create freedom in your business. Time freedom, financial freedom, and the free the internal freedom to really savor your life. Because we know that working longer and harder and chasing absolutely every opportunity isn't necessarily what works. You know? And Mhmm.Helle Brodie [00:05:35]:You know, one of the things that that I can't give you the the 10 steps to is one of the keys is really aligning your conscious and your unconscious mind. Now I I can't I can't offer that as a free resource difficult thing to do on your own. Right? And that's one of the keys to how I'm able to help people, really get to the next level in their business, create that freedom, and, and move forward. Live life with new dreams.Stuart Webb [00:06:08]:So these so the 10 steps that you're you're hearing here, this is this is the outline that people can start to understand. But but, really, that's that's not the end of the journey, is it? What we're talking about here is something which you've gotta partly self discovery, but also that's something that you've got to sort of understand exactly how to apply these things. I often think that that's one of the failures that we have as as entrepreneurs. We see a formula, we see a set of steps, and we go, well, I'll just implement those as they as they are, and they'll just work. And that's not the whole story, is that?Helle Brodie [00:06:36]:Right. Right. Because because, I mean, the so when I talk about the the, unconscious blocks that that that are holding you back from your progress, You know? I mean, so we've heard all all heard about mindset. You have to have a success mindset and a growth mindset, and that's all very true. This goes one level deeper than that because our in our conscious mind, we we set our goals. Our unconscious mind is the part of our mind that acts actually helps us achieve our goals. Mhmm. And until we have those two things aligned, it's gonna be really hard to achieve your goals and do everything that you wanna do without working longer and harder and pushing and struggling.Helle Brodie [00:07:19]:So so it creates ease and flow in your business. Now you still have to have a work ethic because growth and change don't happen on their own.Stuart Webb [00:07:29]:You know what I mean?Helle Brodie [00:07:29]:I'm sure you've heard a lot of people talk about, oh, it's just so easy. You know? You just think it and think positive thoughts, and all the good things in the world will will come to you. Well, that doesn't necessarily happen. And when we I'm I'm trying to be kind. So when we align our with our unconscious minds, then it becomes a lot easier because we're not we're not self sabotaging us ourselves. We're not keeping ourselves from achieving the goals that we really want. I mean, this is what we really want.Stuart Webb [00:08:06]:So Yeah. I I I absolutely know what you mean, and I think it's something we too often, we we too often, we sort of look around and go, oh, there's there must be I'm just looking for the magic formula. And, you know, I was talking to somebody about AI, and they went and, and we were discussing sort of, you know, AI in the business and and how to automate something, and they went and and is that when the magic happens? And I went, no. There's no magic. I'm sorry. There is no magic. There is there is hard work and, you know, there was there is this sort of, you know somehow there was this belief that somehow I I I just push that button. Everything just happens, doesn't it? It just all becomes nice and funky, and that's just not the way the the world works, does it? Right.Helle Brodie [00:08:45]:Yeah. There's no I call it the easy button. There's no easy button. Right? You know, big red button where you just push it and everything happens beautifully and miraculously. You know, wouldn't wouldn't that be nice? And if if there was, everybody would be doing it, and we'd be looking for something else, wouldn't we?Stuart Webb [00:09:03]:Terrific. That's a great message, and that's a great way to great way to segue into my next my next question to you. There must have been something, a a book, and we talked a little bit about it at the beginning when I gave the introduction about sort of your journey from from vastly different, industries. Can you was there a was there a was there a point in your life, a book, or a program or something which brought you to this understanding? How did you get to where you are now?Helle Brodie [00:09:28]:Right. Well, I mean, it it wasn't a book like, I do have a favorite book, or a book that that's been very significant in terms of my beliefs and my growth.Stuart Webb [00:09:39]:Please tell us.Helle Brodie [00:09:40]:And and I'll you know, give me a second. So that my process to get from from one industry to to another was that I real recognized that, my clients in in the other industry were not always making, what I would say, rational decisions.Stuart Webb [00:10:00]:Mhmm.Helle Brodie [00:10:00]:They were making decisions out of out of fear and scarcity. And and I had great solutions to offer them, and they agreed until it came to down to the bottom line. And so until well, and I'm sure you've come across those people as well. And so as I dove into that, I came to understand that that they were living in stress, overwhelm, fear, anxiety. They may not have shown it on the outside, and that's where their decisions were coming from. So in my other business, my goal was to create a better world, you know, and that was more that was primarily environmentally. And I realized that if I wanted to, create a better world through that industry, the best thing I could do will help the people in that in so that's it's kind of a roundabout way for how I got to where I am. And and, you know, I promised you that I would I would tell you about a book that's been particularly significant for me.Helle Brodie [00:11:11]:It's called, Unstoppable Self Confidence by Andrew, by Andrew, Leadham. And so the the most valuable lesson in that, or the most valuable lesson that I've taken from that is wrong with you. As an entrepreneur, when we don't succeed, when something goes wrong, you know, you start thinking, what's wrong with me? Why can't I do this? Why can't I figure it out? Valuable resource that says, really, there's nothing wrong with you. And what he does is he helps us to, think the way the 1% do. The 1% who all who who achieve their goals, who have success, who live life on their terms. And it all comes down to there's nothing wrong with you. And so it's a beautiful resource that that, I mean, it's a it's a great book. It's it's fascinating, and it certainly opened my eyes in in many areas.Stuart Webb [00:12:14]:Well, it's not one I've come across. I'm glad you've introduced it to me. I should be checking it out because that is a hugely valuable step forward for all of us. But let me get to the right to the to the question I've got for you here, which is I'm sure you've been thinking for all this time where you you've been talking away and thinking, well, the the question he question he should be asking me is is so critical. Why when is he gonna get to that one? Well, I'm gonna give you the opportunity of telling me what the question is. And then, obviously, when you've posed the question, well, you're gonna have to answer because I really don't know what the question is. So, therefore, Helen, what's the question I should have asked you in these last few minutes you really think I should have asked?Helle Brodie [00:12:52]:So the question is why do I think it's so important for entrepreneurs to thrive? Because I work with entrepreneurs, So why is it so important for entrepreneurs to thrive? And so I I truly believe that entrepreneurs hold the key to our future. They're a huge part of our economy. They're the movers and shakers of the world. Right? They're nimble. They're resourceful. They're creative. You know? And and and they're great adjusting. They're resilient.Helle Brodie [00:13:28]:They're adjusting to what you've called the the new normal. Right? Big corporations can't adjust. They're they're not as nimble. They're not as creative. They're not they're not as passionate. Right?Stuart Webb [00:13:42]:Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.Helle Brodie [00:13:43]:And so I believe that when entrepreneurs thrive, they they create a better world.Stuart Webb [00:13:50]:Wow. What a what a So that'sHelle Brodie [00:13:53]:why I wanna work with entrepreneurs.Stuart Webb [00:13:56]:Hello. That is just such a fantastic just such a fantastic I'm gonna say no more because I think you have ended that, and given us something to think about, during the rest of today and tomorrow. If you're an entrepreneur, you hold the key to the future. So I wanna reach out to you and say, you probably need to go on to, within twenty four hours, we will have Heller's resource at this link, and I would get onto it. I would start looking at those 10 steps immediately because I think you, need the, need to be able to get in and tap into some of this wisdom. But, before you do that, you need to go to this link, which is www.systemize.me/subscribe. That puts you on the newsletter list. You know that you get an email from me just once a week that actually tells you about who's coming up on this podcast recording each week.Stuart Webb [00:14:56]:And you have the opportunity to get on, listen to it live, and if necessary, dive in and ask questions of great experts such as Heller and, really understand how to make your business move that one step forward that you need to make it move each day. But remember to get on and have a look at the stuff that Heller will have, to help you to do that. Heller, I wanna thank you for taking a few minutes out of our of your valuable time and giving us your your wisdom for us to to take away and think about and to really sort of dwell on. And I appreciate the fact that you've, given us that very valuable free advice, today. So thank you very much for doing that.Helle Brodie [00:15:35]:My pleasure.

Hi and welcome to It's Not Rocket Science five questions over coffee. I have got my coffee with me here. It is, in a mug which I got when I recently returned from Lanzarote which is and Paige has got her coffee with her. So I'm delighted today to be speaking with Paige on our fen. Paige is a really brilliant marketing connector, she's into into connecting, captivating, and converting those customers. So we're gonna learn a lot about how she's done that and what she's been doing in her business. And, Paige, welcome to It's Not Rocket Science, five questions over coffee.Stuart Webb [00:01:11]:Welcome to giving us your spin on the world.Paige Arnof-Fenn [00:01:14]:Thank you, Stuart. It's great to be here. Thanks for having me.Stuart Webb [00:01:18]:No problem. Now I know that, you are, you are you are interested in in these companies and and how they market. So can you tell me the sort of sort of business leaders, sort of business, work the business that you work with? What are the sort of problems that you see that they have that they are maybe maybe not quite converting at the moment?Paige Arnof-Fenn [00:01:40]:So the majority of our clients, I would describe as, mid to emerging market, kind of 2,000,000 to 200,000,000 in revenue, but we also work with companies who are early stage venture backed startups or even big Fortune 500 companies. And a lot of the common denominators, that affect all the organizations today is, you know, they're getting lost in the noise. There's just so much going on, and they want to raise their visibility and their profile so that they can sell more of their products and services faster. And they just feel like, you know, there's just a lot going on, and it's hard to get noticed today.Stuart Webb [00:02:25]:And and tell me, Paige, what are the problems that you've noticed that they have with that getting noticed? Because you're right. A lot of scale up businesses are are often struggling to break through the noise, and and sometimes sometimes it's simple steps they take. What are the sort of things that you find that that business owners you're working with, business leaders that you you speak to are struggling with and how and and what are the mistakes they're making?Paige Arnof-Fenn [00:02:50]:So you know, one, one universal problem, I think, is a lot of people feel like I'm really not a famous person. I don't run a big company that has global recognition. I'm not Taylor Swift or Serena Williams or Beyonce. You know?Stuart Webb [00:03:10]:Few of us are, Paige. Few of us are.Paige Arnof-Fenn [00:03:12]:But a lot of, you know, small business owners don't think of themselves as brands. They just think I'm running this small company. It's not that big of a deal. But the truth is everybody's a brand today. And I think if we learned anything during the pandemic, it's that if you don't exist online, you're really invisible today. And so, you know, the thing that I try encourage, people that, reach out is I really hope that I can convince you that it's important that you do brand yourself and brand your your product or service in a way that connects with your customers and clients on a on an emotional level. A brand is a promise of a consistent experience, and it you want to own real estate in your customer's brain so that every time they have a problem that your product or service that, can help them solve, that they think of you first. And if you own that real estate in their brain, you're a brand.Paige Arnof-Fenn [00:04:18]:And if you don't, you're a commodity. And commodities compete on price, and that's a really bad place to be. Because if you're competing on price and all you do is lower your price to win more business, that's not a sustainable option.Stuart Webb [00:04:33]:I think that's a brilliant message, Paige. And I must admit, one of the businesses that I was helping when it came to the pandemic, when they started the pandemic, they had unknown no online presence. They'd never thought of it. And by the end of the pandemic, they had more business coming in online than they had in their physical store. And, actually, that was one of the causes of the problems they then started to have in terms of that, as you said, that promise. Because, you know, what often you find with brands, with marketing, is that people promise one thing but can deliver something very different. And it's that experience of then failing to meet the customer expectation which actually causes so many problems. And that is a is a it becomes a business issue very quickly, doesn't it? Because people rarely understand that they have to have to live up to what they're talking about in their marketing.Paige Arnof-Fenn [00:05:22]:Absolutely. And you you really need to own a very specific, message. You can't stand for everything. You can stand for one or two things. And I think another big mistake people make is they try to be all things to all people. And theyStuart Webb [00:05:38]:All people. Yes.Paige Arnof-Fenn [00:05:40]:Million, benefits and features out there. People don't remember the features. What they wanna know is how you're gonna help them. How are you gonna help them solve their problem? So it's really important to hone in on your message, figure out what those really singular things are that really matter to your audience and reinforce those messages in everything that you do. And don't spread yourself too thin online either. If you try to be on every platform all the time with all the messages, again, it's just gonna dilute your brand. People aren't gonna, remember too much. And if you're not consistent in your message, if you try to be one thing on one platform and another thing on another platform, you're not building trust.Paige Arnof-Fenn [00:06:32]:And, you know, brands are you know, you you wanna have, unique, special, and different messages that build trust in what you're saying. And people buy brands they know, like, and trust. So make sure they can find you, that you're talking about yourself in a way that's relevant and compelling, and that it's constantly being reinforced in everything that you do. Those are the brands that succeed. And like you said, if they do it well, their business will explode.Stuart Webb [00:07:06]:I love the what you're saying, Paige. And I must admit I I I buy into it a lot of the time because so often I think business owners fail to recognize two things. One of which is, you know, they're reaching out onto 17 different social media platforms, and they've forgotten that on 16 of those social media platforms, their audience is not there, and they are just wasting their time and their effort and their money to reach out to somebody who just doesn't exist. And the other thing that I find so many small businesses do is they forget that they're trying. They should be selling outcomes. They should be selling the outcome of the because, you know, that once again, we go back to that promise. Somebody is not interested in the fact that I I often sort of talk to to people and say, when you buy a stapler, what is it you're looking for? You're not looking for metal. You're looking for us for for the fact that the paper will hold together.Stuart Webb [00:07:54]:So tell people about the paper being held together and how good it is that it does that, not the fact that it's made out of metal because that's a feature that nobody can relate to. And so often people forget that it's that outcome that they're really interested in, not the the steps to it. That's just the incidentals.Paige Arnof-Fenn [00:08:12]:Bingo. What's in it for them? How are you making their lives more convenient, simpler? You're saving them time. You're saving them money. And like you said, if you're just spinning your wheels and you're spending a lot of energy to no end, it's running you ragged, and it's not building your business.Stuart Webb [00:08:30]:Yeah. We're back to that most popular radio station on the, in the world, WII FM. What's in it for me?Paige Arnof-Fenn [00:08:37]:You got it. Bingo.Stuart Webb [00:08:40]:Paige, you must have, and I'm gonna put your, on screen now the the the website where we could come and find more information about you, which is at mavensandmoguls.com. Is there something at that website that we can all latch on to which is already valuable piece of free advice?Paige Arnof-Fenn [00:08:56]:Absolutely. I have a lot of free content. Articles, I've contributed to a lot of books. I've got videos. I've got podcasts. So if anyone that wants to learn more about branding or marketing, personal branding in a digital world, it's all there. There's no gated. You don't have to, give me, email address.Paige Arnof-Fenn [00:09:18]:There's no fee, and I think there'll be a lot of great content for people who wanna learn more.Stuart Webb [00:09:24]:And anybody who hasn't actually managed to capture that email that that that that now and we'll put this into there. We keep a record of all of the great stuff that that guests on the show come across. So if you just go to systemize.meforward free forward free hyphen stuff, I'll try and say that again only this time in English. Systemize dot me hyphen, sorry, slash free hyphen stuff. If you go to that link anyway, you'll see it in the show notes. You will be able to go straight onto a I will have a link straight to Paige's website, and you'll go straight into that in order to be able to get to that. So, Paige, we've got to know a little bit more about you as a as a person. So what is it? Was there a book, a program, a life experience, something that brought you to the point here where you became the the the the marketing mogul that you are?Paige Arnof-Fenn [00:10:15]:So, you know, I am constantly reading and trying to learn. I think having a growth mindset is so important today. There's so much out there. I I like the classics, to be honest with you. I think Dale Carnegie's How to Win Friends and Influence People is one that if you haven't read it or you haven't read it in a long time, there are a lot of great tips on human nature and great marketing tips as well. But there are a lot of current people, Seth Godin, David Meerman Scott, Guy Kawasaki, people that have been real practitioners in marketing and technology, and they don't use a lot of jargon. They're very straight shooting. They talk about their real life experiences in the trenches, the good, the bad, the ugly.Paige Arnof-Fenn [00:11:04]:And I always learn if I follow them online or read their books asStuart Webb [00:11:09]:well. Good good good attitude to have a growth mindset. I love it. So we come to the the million dollar question, Paige, the one that I know you've been asking yourself. When is he gonna ask me that really killer question? And so I'm going to say to you, what's the killer question I should have asked you? And then, obviously, once you've told me what that killer question is, you better answerPaige Arnof-Fenn [00:11:30]:it because I won't know the answer. So maybe is there a quote or, something that motivates you, that inspires you, that affects, you know, how you I love that question. Build your business. And I would say there's a quote. It was attributed to Teddy Roosevelt, but I I think it's been attributed to a lot of people. It's that people don't care how much you know until they know how much you care.Stuart Webb [00:11:54]:And I think I love that.Paige Arnof-Fenn [00:11:56]:I think it's a great quote. And I think especially in this day of artificial intelligence where people are kind of throwing a lot of things, you know, to these rope robotic machinery online, and what comes back is very generic and robotic, copy. And I think you have to remember to show your humanity to stand out today. So people are not looking for facts and figures and to be inundated with a lot of data. I think you have to find the stories that are unique, special, and different to you that make you stand out and get remembered. So, you know, I think if you remember nothing else about our talk today, just remember that showing your humanity, the good, the bad, the ugly, the things that the lessons you learned that only you can share, your origin story. What what is it about you that or how are you gonna help people in a way that they're gonna think of you first and remember you because you're a human being and you're not some AI tool that, you know, uses all the same buzzwords and keywords and copy, people aren't gonna remember that, but they will remember you if you have a great story.Stuart Webb [00:13:14]:Do you know? I think that's a really valuable and I hope a timely piece of advice. I know a lot of people today are using AI to write their blog posts. They're using AI to write their books. I came across somebody the other day who is using chat GPT to write his book for him. And he's using it in a very clever way with some very interesting prompts but at the end of the day when I read something I need to hear the writer's voice and that's when you suddenly sit there and go 'I cannot imagine' I couldn't imagine actually when I read what this this person I I won't use his name, but when he sent me what he'd written, I went, this doesn't sound like it. It doesn't sound like the way he talks, and I certainly don't buy into what he's saying because of it. You've actually got to continue to remember that marketing is about that. Once again, that's delivering on that promise that you make, isn't it? And if you fail to deliver because you have one voice in your marketing and another voice in your delivery, you fail to connect with a customer.Paige Arnof-Fenn [00:14:13]:Exactly. And you get one chance to make a great first impression, so don't blow it.Stuart Webb [00:14:18]:I love that. Paige, that is an absolutely brilliant way to stop. We're gonna stop there before we ruin it by saying anything which actually isn't nearly as brilliant as what you've just said. So, I'm just gonna put this up at the moment. Let's, let's let's let's just ask you. People, if you are interested in getting a a I send out a normally, I send out a weekly newsletter, and it just tells you who's coming up on the podcast in the coming few days. And if you'd like to get on that newsletter so you can get ready to hear some of the great interviews that we have with some brilliant people like Paige, go to systemize.me forward slash subscribe. Simple form.Stuart Webb [00:14:54]:It only asks you for two things, your name and your email address. You'll have nothing more than that. You will only get an email from me about once a week, and that that's as simple as that. So please go to systemize.meforward slash subscribe page. Thank you so much for coming on. What a brilliant piece of advice. And just remember, if you're using AI to write your marketing materials at the moment, you are missing a huge opportunity to be a brand which people connect with, which people love to trust, and that is missing out, and you're leaving money on the table. So, Paige, thank you so much for your time.Paige Arnof-Fenn [00:15:28]:Thanks, Stuart. I love chatting with you today.

En este episodio especial de Pulsa el Botón, reuno a cuatro expertos de diferentes disciplinas para abordar la salud desde una perspectiva integral y actualizada, en el contexto de la revolución digital y la inteligencia artificial. La mesa redonda contó con la participación de:Aarón Adasat: Entrenador especializado en deportes de resistencia y responsable del proyecto Wild Trail Trail (Nike).Sergio Pérez Soto: Fisioterapeuta deportivo (especializado en readaptación deportiva), cofundador de Deporgest y actualmente trabajando en Turquía para el Vakifbanksk.Marina Montero: Psicóloga general sanitaria, experta en trastornos de la conducta alimentaria (TCA).Sergio Martín: Nutricionista en el ámbito deportivo, investigador y corredor de resistencia.La conversación arrancó con una pregunta para ‘premio': ¿qué es la salud para ustedes? Sergio Martín, Aarón, Marina y Sergio Pérez coincidieron en que la salud no es sólo la ausencia de enfermedad, sino un equilibrio entre lo físico, mental, social y emocional. Se destacó, además, la importancia de la adaptabilidad y la flexibilidad ante los retos de la vida, así como la necesidad de evitar los extremos: ni el sedentarismo, ni la obsesión por el rendimiento y la perfección.A lo largo del episodio, los cuatro compartieron reflexiones sobre cómo los problemas de salud suelen tener causas multifactoriales y cómo la colaboración entre disciplinas (nutrición, entrenamiento, fisioterapia y psicología) es clave para acompañar a las personas de forma efectiva. Se analizó la realidad de quienes buscan apoyo profesional: muchas veces, la falta de recursos económicos, o la desinformación, los lleva a acudir sólo cuando el problema ya es grave.La mesa abordó también la sobreinformación y las modas en salud, advirtiendo sobre los riesgos de seguir consejos no contrastados en redes sociales o de caer en dietas y entrenamientos extremos. Se insiste en la importancia de acudir a profesionales cualificados y de consultar fuentes fiables, especialmente en una era en la que la inteligencia artificial (IA) empieza a influir en la toma de decisiones sanitarias.Uno de los puntos centrales fue el papel de la IA en la salud. Todos coinciden en que la inteligencia artificial puede ser una herramienta valiosa para analizar datos, generar recomendaciones y facilitar el trabajo de los profesionales, pero nunca sustituirá la empatía, la cercanía y el juicio humano. Se subrayó la importancia de educar a la sociedad en el uso crítico de la información y en la prevención, fomentando el autoconocimiento y la escucha activa de las señales del cuerpo.El episodio cerró con un mensaje de agradecimiento y reconocimiento al valor de la divulgación y la colaboración entre profesionales, invitando a los oyentes a cuidar su salud desde una perspectiva integral y a aprovechar las nuevas tecnologías sin perder de vista el factor humano.¿Por qué escuchar este episodio?Si buscas una visión fresca, honesta y multidisciplinar sobre cómo cuidar tu salud en la era de la IA, este episodio es para ti. Aprenderás a evitar extremos, a identificar señales de alerta y a entender el verdadero valor de la prevención y la colaboración entre profesionales. Además, descubrirás cómo la inteligencia artificial está cambiando el panorama de la salud y por qué la empatía y el contacto humano siguen siendo insustituibles. Una conversación imprescindible para quienes quieren vivir mejor, informados y acompañados.¿Listo para pulsar el botón?

Dis-moi… est-ce que tu t'es déjà demandé si tu devais vraiment équilibrer ton alimentation ? As tu cette impression qu'il faudrait que chaque repas soit bien construit, avec tout ce qu'il “faut” dedans : des protéines, des légumes, des féculents, un fruit… bref, l'assiette parfaite ? Alors je me suis dit que ce serait sympa de t'en parler ici. Parce que je pense qu'on se met souvent trop de pression avec cette idée d'équilibre… alors qu'il y a peut-être une autre façon d'envisager les choses, plus souple, plus curieuse, plus bienveillante aussi. ✨ [Quiz] Découvre si ton rapport à la nourriture est réellement sain et quelle stratégie tu dois adopter ✨ Liens cités dans l'épisode : 26.

Who is Adam?Adam Warner is an accomplished technology professional who has navigated a successful career from hands-on software engineering to becoming a chief technology officer (CTO) at a prominent company. Starting from humble beginnings, Adam honed his technical skills and gradually rose through the ranks, moving from engineering roles to leadership positions such as VP of Engineering, and finally stepping into the CTO role. Throughout his career, he has demonstrated exceptional technical acumen across various industries. Nevertheless, like many technology leaders, Adam initially faced challenges adapting to the broader executive responsibilities of aligning technology with business objectives, cultivating strong leadership teams, and establishing influence among fellow executives and board members. Through perseverance and dedication, Adam has become a respected figure in bridging the gap between technology and business strategy.Key Takeaways00:00 Navigating Executive Anxiety03:48 CTO's Strategic Reflection Tools10:22 Subscribe for Weekly Podcast Updates11:05 "CTOs to Executive Coaches"_________________________________________________________________________________________________Subscribe to our newsletter and get details of when we are doing these interviews live at https://TCA.fyi/newsletterFind out more about being a guest at : link.thecompleteapproach.co.uk/beaguestSubscribe to the podcast at https://link.thecompleteapproach.co.uk/podcastHelp us get this podcast in front of as many people as possible.

On this occasion, here is my coffee in my mug here. I'm joined by Adam Warner. Adam is a CTO coach helping, executive thinking within those people who are technical leaders. So, Adam, welcome to It's Not Rocket Science five questions over coffee.Adam Warner [00:00:54]:Thanks Thanks so much. Good to have me. Good to have you here. Thanks so much.Stuart Webb [00:00:57]:So so, Adam, let's start by, just exploring exactly it is who it is you help. What are the sort of people that are reaching out to you and asking for your help as a CTO coach?Adam Warner [00:01:07]:Yeah. Sure. So typically, it's the CTO, the chief technology officer, or the most senior technology leader in a company if they aren't called the CTO. They could be anywhere from startup, scale up, large enterprises, and they're typically someone who's transitioned, as you said, from being a hands on software engineer of some sort, VP engineering, into that senior leadership role. And it can be from almost, you know, any vertical. They're often incredibly skilled technically, but often feel unprepared for the broader executive responsibilities that they now find themselves with at at the CTO level. So often it's around, you know, aligning tech with business goals, building up their teams, and then they often face challenges in securing buy in from the other executives and then building that sort of leadership presence at the executive and board level.Stuart Webb [00:01:55]:So tell me, what are the sort of problems that these people have faced before they get in an an expert while you you involved, you know, in terms of both the business issues and also sometimes some of those, some of those more soft skills, the the the persuasion, the ability to influence?Adam Warner [00:02:15]:Yeah. That that's that's pretty much it. So I think there's there's a couple of things that people face. And and one of them is, the the the gap between the technical expertise and the strategic leadership. They're sort of trying to cross this, what I call the CTO chasm, really. And it's really about moving from being an individual contributor to being, working through delegation. It's going from the tactical approach to the strategic approach. And at the same time, migrating that view from the, sort of execution oriented perspective to the vision oriented perspective.Adam Warner [00:02:48]:And and the kind of feelings that people come to me with is sort of frustration, sometimes it's burnout, sometimes it's careers, stalled career growth. And sometimes I find them where they're sort of firefighting every day. They're struggling to get time to think strategically, sort of lurching from issue to issue, and often struggling to sort of step back and give themselves space and time to lead proactively because they're constantly in execution mode rather than thinking long term. And without the right guidance, people can make this transition. You know, it can take years of trial and error. But my role really is to help them cross that, well, you know, the CTO chasm as I call it, by accelerating that process of trying to figure out all of those things together and get them all to line up. A bit like getting all of the tumblers in a lock to line up at once so you can move to that next level and act strategically.Stuart Webb [00:03:36]:So, Adam, you must have one valuable piece of advice or one valuable, piece of, offering that you can you can give to people at the moment. What is that that offer that you get?Adam Warner [00:03:48]:I've got three, actually. One of the simplest and most powerful things a CTO can do, I think, is to implement a sort of a weekly strategical reflection session. So just setting aside thirty minutes every week to just analyze what are the biggest strategic risks I face, how well is my engineering team aligned with business goals, where am I spending my time. So just thirty minutes a week set aside for yourself to reflect and figure out where you're going. It's something that's completely free, completely straightforward, and and everybody can implement that straight away to to strong effect. I also offer a free thirty minute introduction call, with every CTO who'd like to have a chat with me, and I take the approach of helping first. So it's a good way to get some instant feedback on the current challenges and some of the other options that are available to you in terms of the different directions you could go in. And then lastly, I also host a podcast, as you mentioned in the beginning, called the CTO Playbook.Adam Warner [00:04:38]:That's aimed primarily at helping CTOs excel in their role. Taking a a playbook in each episode, often with a guest speaker who's an absolute expert in their area that they work in their topic. And you can find that podcast by searching for the TCO the CTO playbook, sorry, on your favorite podcast platform or by visiting my website, sunnova.tech/podcast.Stuart Webb [00:05:00]:So we're gonna we're gonna put a link to those things that Adam just mentioned in our, our free vault which is systemize.me/free-stuff. So if you go to systemize.me, if you didn't catch any of that, go to systemize.me-freestuff. I'll put that as well into the notes. You can you can you can catch all those, those valuable free offers that I've just offered you there. So, we'll we'll have those in our show notes. Adam, I'm I'm gonna sort of, try to sort of dive in a little bit to the sort of acumen behind the, behind the CTO coach here. That must have been a book, a program, a life experience, something which brought you to where you are today? What what what was it that sort of took you on the journey? What ended up sort of, you know, becoming Adam, the CTO coach, and what was it that inspired that?Adam Warner [00:05:54]:Yeah. So about twelve years ago, I became a founder of a startup, a cofounder, I should say. I started side, Stephen, who's the founder of Satago. And I sort of went through that role, figuring things out the hard way. Most of the time, I had some good mentors along the way with members of seed camps who had access to a a couple of great people, from there. But it was that kind of it was that sort of step of of, first of all, figuring out all the challenges I had in front of me and working out step by step, you know, sort of using the brute force approach to get through it. And I think, really, the thing that that brought it home was is this idea of stopping thinking like an engineer and beginning to think like a business leader. And there was really two, areas there.Adam Warner [00:06:33]:So one was this transition of trying to figure out a lot of things at once, which you already mentioned, Crossing the CTO Chasm. And the other one was really closely related to that, which is actually from the, Patrick Lencioni book on the five dysfunctions of a team, which is that you gotta you gotta act in your first team. And in that case, as a CTO, that's the executive team. It isn't the engineering team. So So that's another one of those key transitions that once I figured out and got my head around it, became a lot easier to understand what was expected of me. And in terms of mindset shift, there was also a book that really helped, which I'd been recommended years earlier, but really came into its own. And that's a book called Turn the Ship Around by David l Marquette. And the reason it's so useful is because it represents that mindset shift to the leader, to then stop that process of of change across the entire team as well as in yourself.Stuart Webb [00:07:18]:Brilliant. Look, Adam, it's been me asking the questions up until now, and I I guess one of the things that you must be thinking is, well, there's a second obvious question. Why isn't he asked it? And so, therefore, I am going to, immediately turn that over to you and say, what is that obvious question that you wish I have asked you at this stage? And and, obviously, as it will be your question, you'll need to answer it for us. So what's the obvious question that I haven't asked you up until now?Adam Warner [00:07:45]:So the obvious question is why don't more CTOs get coaching?Stuart Webb [00:07:51]:Why doesn't everybody get more coaching? Adam, are they? It's not a not a problem limited to CTOs. I often wonder why it is that people are somehow resistant to the whole idea of having somebody that they can sort of rely on and and tap ask and and be outside of a situation to just say, do you know, I just want an ear?Adam Warner [00:08:10]:And a lot of the times, I think people do rely on their immediate leader. They have, a mentor. A lot of people have somebody. And in other cases, people go to coaching and training courses. But I think with CTOs, there's a particular challenge in that. I think many c CEOs get coaching. And in fact, I think if most CTOs turn around to their to their most most CTOs turn around to their CEO and say, do you get coaching? The answer would probably be yes. And that's also true for many CFOs and COOs.Adam Warner [00:08:37]:But it so there's a lack of awareness that CTOs don't really realize it's an option. Often, CTOs being classed as a delivery role rather than an executive role. And so, it's just not that common. There's not many people who talk about CTO coaching. That's one thing. I think the other the other reason is is applicability. I think there's a there's a lot of executive coaches out there and they're quite generic, in terms of the the background that they expect somebody to have. And it doesn't always apply or resonate particularly well with the CTO.Adam Warner [00:09:09]:There's a difference in the the course you take through a company from engineering than if you come, for example, sales or marketing, where you've got a lot more focus and emphasis on, for example, communication. I think training courses fill some of this gap. I think mentors can really help. But mentors can, you know, they can be a bit hit and miss based on the right kinds of experience. The CTO role might be only forty years old, but it's a very broad church in terms of the different kinds of roles that CTO covers. So my approach, for coaching is slightly different. I basically blend together coaching, teaching, and mentoring. And so coaching is that, you know, the blockers, the fears, the confidence, you know, in some cases, the imposter syndrome.Adam Warner [00:09:48]:Teaching is the frameworks and playbooks that you haven't been previously exposed to or had experience in. And mentoring is kind of two folds mentoring. One is holding people to account based on promises and expectations, but the other part is also being able to bounce ideas off somebody, with a lot more experience and background. And, you know, what are the unexpected side effects? What would be the in consequences that I can't foresee coming from those kinds of things? And so having that, approach, really, I think a lot of CTOs just don't realize that coaching's available and out there. There aren't that many CTO coaches who specifically focus on this.Stuart Webb [00:10:22]:Brilliant. Adam, thank you so much for spending a few minutes with us and talking us through that. I'm just gonna leave, one final, link for people. If you would like to get on to the, the mailing list that we send out, we send out an email about once a week, and we just let people know about who's coming up on the podcast and other things that we're thinking about at the moment. It it contains two or three things that we're thinking about, two or three things that are common and going on in the world, plus, plus some humor. We try and inject some humor to every newsletter because we think the world should be a brighter, buprenier place. But if you'd like to get onto that newsletter list, come on to systemize.me/subscribe. That's systemize.me/subscribe.Stuart Webb [00:11:05]:Alan, thank you so much for spending a few minutes with us. Really appreciate it. I hope to hear in the future how many more people get their coaching from the CTO background, and go on to become successful executives. Thank you so much.Adam Warner [00:11:18]:Thank you, Stuart. Great to have you. Get full access to It's Not Rocket Science! at thecompleteapproach.substack.com/subscribe

Last month, Trinity Classical Academy sent forth its first class of graduating seniors. To mark this milestone, we're republishing an interview that first aired in 2020 on Owen Strachan's now-defunct podcast. At that time, Dr. Strachan was on the faculty at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, and he invited Bob Thune to MBTS's Spurgeon Library to talk about the founding of Trinity Classical Academy. The founding and building of institutions is critical for gospel renewal, for societal health, and for the preservation and propagation of Christian faith. The story of TCA's success—from a fledgling startup school to a thriving educational institution—should inspire Christians to be dreamers and builders and doers.(0:00) Introductions: Bob Introduces Owen Introducing Bob(4:33) The Origin Story of Trinity Classical Academy(20:30) The Aim of Education: Formation(27:13) How Can You be a Catalyst in Your Context?

I'm really looking forward to this discussion because I think you've got some really valuable things to tell us. So welcome to the show.Karen Rands [00:01:32]:Thank you so very much, Stuart. And and I have been, since we got reconnected on LinkedIn, looking at some of the podcasts and the different interviews that you've done, and it really are some true golden nuggets out there for entrepreneurs to be able to, like, get in there and and, like and I love the way that you do it with just the five questions. So, you know, you chop chop, we get to it, and get good stuff going there.Stuart Webb [00:01:56]:We're only gonna ask the five questions, but, obviously, you know, we are really interested. If anybody is watching on the livestream, they need to pop something in. Please post questions in the chat. We'd love to have this interactive. So but let's start, Karen. Karen, talk to me a little bit about the sort of, investor or entrepreneur you're trying to reach, the sort of person who needs the help that you could give them in order to guide them in the right direction towards the capital they need to raise.Karen Rands [00:02:25]:Okay, Stuart. That so I saw that question before. You paved with a little bit different. It's always a struggle for me because you have two sides of the coin, right, with entrepreneur entrepreneurs and investors and different problems. So one is strategic change the world kind of thing with what I do with investors and bringing in this, you know, to get confidence and confidence in investing. But, you know, the there is a challenge, and part of the big reason why I do my show, my podcast show itself is for those entrepreneurs out there, it they startups always know about, seems like raising capital, and they'll get out there and they'll they'll get some good advice. They they get a lot they oftentimes don't know what they don't know. So they get started wrong.Karen Rands [00:03:16]:They get started with wrong perceptions of what it's gonna take to raise capital and actually get to scaling their business. And as a result of this, you find both sides of that table, the angels and the entrepreneurs find themselves in the same problem spot. And that problem spot is the fact that they raise an early round of capital. They are successful in getting to that point, but they underestimate how much capital they're gonna need in order to fully go all the way to the end, to be able to get to a profitable exit, to be able to continue on their life cycle of growing. And by the time that they figure out that they need to go raise more capital, they oftentimes are now not attractive to the next round of potential capital people like venture capitalists. You know, they find out that they need more money than a bank is gonna be. Let's just so let's say somebody raise give me an example. They raise a million dollars as a technology company, let's say, And they and they think that because of the way they calculated their numbers, that's gonna be enough to get them into making $10,000,000 in revenue.Karen Rands [00:04:28]:But in reality, they end up making 3 or $4,000,000 in revenue with that. They might have a little bit of cash flow and some money that they keep putting back into their business to try to get it to grow. And they struggle with scaling because they really need another 5 to $10,000,000 to become the $50,000,000 or the $70,000,000 company that they originally forecast that they would be when those angels put that million dollars in. So they look around and they go, wait. Okay. I I I'm too I'm wrong industry or too slow quote VCs. I'm not big enough for private equity funds. I need more money than a bank will give us, and I'm too big and stale.Karen Rands [00:05:06]:And I didn't do what I said I was gonna do, so the angels aren't gonna give me any more money. Where do I go? And the angels are looking at them going, this is what the every you know, everybody knows about the ten ten companies in a portfolio. I call the three in the middle of the Midlands. 3 go out of business, three do one does really well, three do pretty good that make up for the others, and the three just sort of putter along the Midland companies. Well, those Midland companies have a great opportunity to be able to use some of the new programs available with the jobs act like reg a plus that's designed for growing companies to go out and raise tens to, you know, up to $75,000,000 in a year. It gives the angels an exit. It gives them access to capital to grow and eventually create a, potential exit way into a Nasdaq small cap. So biggest problem, they don't know what it's gonna take to get all the money to get all the way, and they have no idea that there's a program out there like reg a plus that could solve the problem.Stuart Webb [00:06:10]:And I think that's a really critical point that you've made there, Karen, which is so often people haven't thought through enough what they're gonna do with the capital in order to be able to really properly scale, isn't it? That's one of the major issues. And it's an issue for an angel as well because they're looking at the plan and going, well, they're asking me for this much, but I know they need more. But why aren't they asking for it? What is what is wrong that I have that they haven't actually come to me with the right ask? And, you know, that gives you that gives angels and investors a problem as well because they really want people to ask for the right amount. They don't need somebody coming back for two, three different different asks. It gives them all sorts of problems. We could talk about dilutions and things like that. But the fact of the matter is an angel needs somebody to be on the ball and understand what they wanna ask for as well, don't they?Karen Rands [00:07:00]:Yeah. And it's a sequence. You know, you build value that they it's really down to the numbers. I dig into the numbers deep because then I know whether they have any idea what they're doing and if they're gonna be successful at doing it because and I had a call earlier in the day. A guy was like, yeah. If we just get 1% of this giant market, it's gonna we're gonna be we'll be like, whatever. And I said and I laugh. I always have to laugh.Karen Rands [00:07:25]:It's like, do you understand that that's not the issue? It's how are you gonna get your how are you actually gonna get your first hundred customers that pay you money? Not some euphemistic 1% of a big marketplace. There's a hundred companies chasing after that 1%. You know? So that is such a it's so understanding. And and I and and, yeah, I could we get it. We could probably spend the whole thing talking about financials and how they do the financials, but that's really is the secret of their success is understanding their marketplace, how they're gonna generate revenue, what's gonna cost them to do it, how much time and money is it gonna take them to get to that point so that and and then how much money do they need to get to that point? Right? And if they if you and and not get over into this this bogged down to this percentage thing, because if you get your shares at 25¢ a share, if that's what you're selling, when when Amazon first, you know, started raising capital, they raised a little, and then they go another round at 50, another round at a dollar, another round at a dollar 50, another round at $2 and raising incremental money as their value went up and they delivered on it. And if an investor says to an entrepreneur, okay. Come back to me when you finish this round or come back to me when you have those hundred customers. It's not because they're it's because they don't believe that entrepreneur has the ability to do it, and they don't wanna shoot them in the foot.Karen Rands [00:08:51]:They just wanna, like, put a caveat out there because if they believe that they had the ability to do it, wouldn't they want the stock at 25¢ and not a dollar a share? It's because they don't think they're gonna ever get there. That's why they say that.Stuart Webb [00:09:04]:Yeah. Absolutely. Absolutely. And it is it is you know, it's in everybody's interest to get it right first time, isn't it? It's absolutely the right thing to do to get it right because you then you then save yourself a whole lot of trouble. We could talk for many hours about this, and I'm gonna try. Because you also do as well with with angel investors and helping them to make the right sort of choices and to make the right sort of calls. So is there is there anything you sort of turn around and and and think about in terms of how you help, investors as well to understand how they make their smart investments.Karen Rands [00:09:37]:Well, it's the offering the due diligence. So when I ran my angel investor group for about a decade, you know, I got really, really good at screening companies to see who was worthy of being able to pitch to my investors, which ones I thought the investors would be most likely to invest in. Right? So when you have reviewed a thousand some odd business plans and models and ongoing, you know, you start to pick up a few things here and there. And also in preparation when I was, you know, writing the book, I probably interviewed a hundred investors and I and on my podcast. Right? So it's like, what worked for you? What was your biggest mistake? All that kind of stuff. And it kinda ties right back into what we were talking about. It's the red flags. Right? I I have a program.Karen Rands [00:10:18]:I take companies through an analysis and identify their red flags and give them a red light, green light, yellow light, whatever to go forward to investors. And the, and it really comes down to truly understanding the problem, the solution, why they're the only ones who deliver the solution, and, you know, how are they gonna get there? Do they understand their marketplace well enough to know, like, how they're gonna how they're actually gonna get there and put money in the register? And it's you know, people talk about that, like, incubators and accelerators will sort of talk about the product market fit. That's kind of a thing that people like to throw in there. That's just really catchy little words that came out of a book that, you know, are are do you have do you know where your product fits, and does the market want it willing to pay you the money you need in order to make a profit?Stuart Webb [00:11:13]:Yeah. Yeah. No. Yeah.Karen Rands [00:11:14]:It's still common sense sometimes, but it it's it it because here's the thing. Emotion. So I call it subjective and objective. Emotion so way too often onto investors, buy based off of emotion. And this is when I wrote the book, it was really an anticipation because of crowdfunding that, you know, angel investing has a black eye in a lot of financial sectors for lots of different wrong reasons, not valid reasons, but it's still out there in this in the ethersphere. Right? And the and I was afraid that these people would be like, oh my god. Now I can invest in entrepreneurs. I better go do this.Karen Rands [00:11:54]:And they would see a video. They'd fall in love with the company. They wouldn't look at any of the things that you would need to look at, you know, for buried entry or ability to perform. And they would invest and then lose their money, and it would continue to give angel investing a black eye. And so it was one of those things that you just it there the so I have in my course, I you it's a very disciplined process that you go through and a scoring system so that you can know where if it's between it on a scale of one to 10. Seven to 10, write in. It's your industry. It's your stage.Karen Rands [00:12:32]:It's your the structure of the offering. It, you know, it's it you know this marketplace. It fits it checks about enough of the boxes. And then a five would be like, oh, it's not really perfect, but I just love this entrepreneur. Oh, I love what they're doing. So you consciously are making a decision that says, I know this is riskier. I might lose my money on this, but I'm willing to do it because I just I'm giving credit to my emotion of wanting to do this because it's gonna feel good. Because one of the main reasons why I figured out why millionaires that have the ability to be an angel investor in this sector that is considered, like, so risky, right, is because of the good that they feel when they make an investment with their dollars, and they're having an impact not only to potentially change the world with the problem that that company that founder is solving, but they just like that founder.Karen Rands [00:13:31]:They wanna see that founder be successful. So they if they can balance it properly with objective reasons why this is good a good investment with their emotional reasons why I just really like this and it makes me feel good, then hopefully they get a win win. But they've got to be conscious of that. If they're not conscious that they're making those choices, they will invest on emotion almost all and I've done it. I I have I have broken my own rules and invested on emotion that I'm still, you know, ten years later for waiting for that return on investment. So, you know, it is easy to go down in that slippery slope of doing that, but that's really it's it's it's understanding and really thinking through common sense logic. Do they have what is necessary to succeed?Stuart Webb [00:14:18]:Yeah. Brilliant.Karen Rands [00:14:20]:Sipping my coffee.Stuart Webb [00:14:23]:Karen, I mean, we've we've we've just started started the the talking about this. So so and you've started explaining a little bit about how, investors are and, and and business people sort of end up in these situations. What are the what are the problems that you've seen some of these investors, some of these, some of these, business people get into before they come across somebody like you? And and and and what is it, that you see them do that you can sort of try and help them sort of steer away from those problems before we even get there?Karen Rands [00:14:54]:So we talked we touched on it a little bit with valuation. Valuation is one of those that I think they oftentimes can make mistakes. And then I they come into me and they're struggling with raising capital. I'm sort of like the fixer when it comes to entrepreneurs. A lot of times they're like, oh, I don't know where to go. Karen, can you help? And then I'll look at this stuff and I go, this is why you're having a problem raising capital. And and then and then hopefully, they haven't spent too much money with the wrong people at that point in time so that they can fix themselves to get fixed so they have their odds of being able to raise the capital increases. But if you you know, there used to be a pretty steady rule of thumb that if you were an idea stage, you might be a million dollar valuation.Karen Rands [00:15:37]:Right? And then once you got past that and you had an MVP and you, you know, kind of had some market validation, you might be able to go to 5,000,000. And then based off of actual forecast, you would do some sort of like a net present value of a higher valuation, but you would be raising money along the ways. And that's when convertible notes and safes became all the rage because it got out of that conversation of what are you a million or $5,000,000 company in the beginning, and it would just convert or give you some kind of sweetener for putting money in now for when, an institutional round that set the valuation happen. And so I think that's probably one of the areas. And entrepreneurs will be like, oh, if I'm 1% of the marketplace, I'm gonna have a hundred million dollar business in five years. Therefore, I'm a $75,000,000 valuation. It's like, no. Not really.Karen Rands [00:16:31]:You know what I mean? It's like, no. Because and they're like, well, you know, they just they just have this Pollyanna approach to it thinking that because they believe it, they see it, it will happen, and that's not the case. It's it's always stair stepping your value and getting out of that scarcity mentality of a percentage of. Because if you understand how to structure the company, you're gonna have preferred and common. So common are the voters. Preferred gets the fur VCs all want that because that's the first right of the technology if something happens. Right? And you can end. And also once you get their board of directors are the ones that actually make most of the operational decisions of things.Karen Rands [00:17:14]:And so you set up from the beginning that you're gonna have your core executive as three people on the board, and then you give two seats up. But you put in your your stockholders agreement and in your formation that add certain amount of revenue or a certain amount of capital raise, you add two more seats. So you you can you always you keep control of your company through the structure of it and how you go about raising that capital having to feel like, oh my god, I've gotta have 51% of a $75,000,000 company when you will never raise the capital on that valuation. Because just real quick, I've the reason why is investors think this and I learned this from some of my key investors. When I say, well, how come you didn't like that? I love that company. What do you mean? And they were like, their valuation is too high. I'll never make my money. How do you mean? Well, if they came in at, let's say, 25,000,000, well, that means that in order to get the typical minimum five times the investment, they have to have a revenue number and stuff and such that they will sell for a hundred million, 5 times that valuation.Karen Rands [00:18:24]:And if they raise any more capital, that valuation continues to go up. And it's they can't get to where they can get an exit. That's why you see all of these unicorns imploding because they're not really that value. It's just the money that got put in.Stuart Webb [00:18:39]:Yeah. Yeah. Karen, we talked a lot about some of the the valuable advice. Is there a a a valuable piece of advice, a a free offer that you have? And, this will go in the the the notes, but just describe it. I'll I'll make sure this goes into, into this vault that we have where all of our free stuff is available. But is there is there a free, free piece of advice, an offer you're gonna sort of present people here that we could put into the vault for them.Karen Rands [00:19:10]:Okay. So so I'm gonna three kind of three things. Right? So the Wow. The pure free thing is I have a an ebook. It's called, 12 secrets of innovation. That is, me explaining 12 there's 47 inside secrets in the book, inside secrets to angel investing. And so I explained 12 of them to an investor and an entrepreneur perspective. And that's, you know, a pretty short one.Karen Rands [00:19:34]:I'll put that I'll I'll give that link will be in your with your free stuff. And then, I do offer up a, you know, a free initial twenty minute kind of get to know you, you know, give you some little snippets of of stuff. Happy to talk to people. Give them some quick feedback. You know, they can then sign up for a full hour if they want. And then the thing is on my YouTube channel, this is the re a resource is that I've been making these webinars and talking about how to raise capital and what do you need to do in great detail, interviewing lots of different people about that. And they're all on their video. Some of some of them been lost over time in migration of the RSS feeds for the audio, but the videos are there.Karen Rands [00:20:20]:And the video, there there's a a playlist that says for entrepreneurs. So they go to YouTube, search on my name, Kiera Rance, get the link in your show notes. They can go to the playlist for entrepreneurs, and there's a lot of content there that they can just, at their leisure, learn and digest and, you know, submit questions or whatever.Stuart Webb [00:20:44]:That is a fabulous resource. And I have gone on looked and had a look at that, and I will make sure that link is you get free stuff. Go to systemize at systemise.me/freestuff. You free hyphen stuff, that is. You will go to that link. You can then click on the stuff that Karen has just said, and we'll make sure that those links are all working. And you can go and get that from and that resource that you talked about, those those videos, they are really, really interesting. And you have spoken to some very, very interesting people, Karen.Stuart Webb [00:21:17]:So, I really encourage people to go look at that one. Let's let's just understand a little bit about more more about you as a person that can. Was there a particular book, of course, anything that brought you to the vast knowledge you've got now about how to how to become, a revenue, or a a a capital raising machine? The the sort of person that does that, but also the way that you're helping us to become the the compassionate capitalist.Karen Rands [00:21:49]:So, I would say it's an oldie, but it changed the way I reference it a lot in my book itself. And I, and that would be, thinking well, Robert Kiyosaki's, cash flow quadrant, which was was the the the subsequent to Rich Dad Poor Dad. Right? His first book was Rich Dad Poor Dad. Yeah. And I read that long time when I was still an employee, at IBM, but it was it the whole idea of the white quadrant versus the left quadrant and how you go from being chain changing hour trading hours for dollars to become a custom business owner that could run a business without being there, and it made them money and then taking that money and putting it into other investments. That was profoundly changed my I didn't know ain't about angel investing out there. One of the real ironic things out there, Stewart, and it really it took me I did not unpack this until probably, like, just a few years ago, even though I've been working with angels and entrepreneurs for a long time. I had never heard the term angel investing.Karen Rands [00:23:01]:And then in IBM, I was a I was like a person that package companies up to go get venture capital and come back and spend it with IBM and get our capital money. But I had never heard the term angel investing until I left IBM to help one of my clients raise capital in the middle of the .com bomb, mind you. That's my own little bubble that I was in. And I got invited to this angel group, and I tell them my story that it was like I was walking into a secret society where the people in this room, because we had to close doors back then, you couldn't general solicit. Next big thing because they put their money into it. Right? And it and in any way, it was so it was that piece of it, why more people didn't hear about, know about angel investing, particularly when crowdfunding happened. And then the second piece of it was this perception that 20 people in that room picked one company, the other two weren't worthy. Well, no, you when going through with my process, you might review six companies, pick three that you think are are the best for your particular audience doesn't mean those other three aren't good.Karen Rands [00:24:09]:And the one that they pick doesn't mean the other two aren't fundable. It's just that's the scarcity of capital. Right? So that was my that was the book that really set me on a journey of thinking different about money and looking at, you know, how you put money to work for yourself. That one, and then, you know, there's been, when I'm first learning about angel investing, there wasn't any book out there about it. I was one of, oh, wait. The guy that was starting New York angels, he he wrote his book a little bit before me, but it was really about how angel groups should do. And then there was, Jason Connes' book came out at the same time line. It's really about his own personal experiences.Karen Rands [00:24:50]:But I wrote my book because people were coming to me saying, hey, Karen. How how do I learn how to be an angel investor? I've got clients that wanna be an angel investor, and they don't know how to be an angel investor, and I can't advise them. I work for Maryland. I'm not allowed to talk to him about that. So where where can I send them? And so all the entrepreneur books I read about how to raise capital and all the sessions I had gone to, like, talk people talking about their experience, I started reverse engineering it to be how what should investors look for in companies and how to be a good investor. And that's where I, you know, wrote the book, my book, to be the step by step guide for how to go about should you would you could you be an angel investor.Stuart Webb [00:25:33]:And, Karen, you are now an absolute, an expert on this. This is this is a valuable resource because, you know, there are people who wanna get into this but just don't understand the value of increasing their capital by putting it into the right place safely and in a sensible way. And, you know, thank you for being that resource. We're we're kind of coming up to, coming up towards the end of this. And and I wanna give you the opportunity of sort of telling me the question I should have asked, which I have not yet done. So it's not a question I haven't yet asked. And if there is, you know, please, tell me what is it you would have liked me to have asked? And obviously, when you ask that question, you're gonna have to answer it becauseKaren Rands [00:26:19]:Well, I know the answer. I'm not sureStuart Webb [00:26:23]:Tell us the question and the answer.Karen Rands [00:26:27]:So you you maybe you can fit tell me what the question would have been for this answer. So, it would be like why I mean, would I'm gonna do a simple version of the answer, but why is it that more people, aren't investing in entrepreneurs? Okay. Yeah. TheStuart Webb [00:26:45]:because they should.Karen Rands [00:26:46]:That the answer the so the US Treasury and the SEC commissioned a report last year, and their findings were pretty much the same. Lack of awarenessStuart Webb [00:26:58]:Mhmm.Karen Rands [00:26:59]:Lack of tools and lack of of education. Right? So I solve that's my trifecta. I'm solving that. But I also think that there, we have a deep rooted sort of like very deep roots in our American psyche that says to be financially successful, to be financially independent, you need to be a successful entrepreneur. And the reality is that not everybody's cut out to be a successful entrepreneur. You know, if you're doing a market participant, may you're opening up another restaurant, you're opening up another thing that other people do, then you've got a whole different set of challenges and competition to deal with. If you're being a market maker where you're saw you're creating a solution that nobody's done before, it's a one off or wedging into an existing marketplace, You know, that's a whole other set of things. Right? And both of them take you know, one of the things when I first started teaching about entrepreneurs, I say, if you can't figure out how you're gonna make double the amount of money you make in your day job right now in the next two years, don't even get started.Stuart Webb [00:28:03]:Yeah. Yeah. It's a start. Yeah.Karen Rands [00:28:04]:Because you got you know, you you keep your job. And now I say, so it is a misnomer to say the best way to create to be create financial independence to be an entrepreneur. Because the reality is for ninety years when it was illegal for everybody else to be involved in in for entrepreneurs to raise money from somebody they didn't already know, that wasn't already a millionaire before the jobs act. And for people that weren't already millionaires to invest in those companies. Okay. During that period of time, we, the, we created this, this myth that it's super, risky. It's not super risky if you know how to do it because millionaires could they don't choose to just throw their money away. Oh, wait a sec.Karen Rands [00:28:51]:I got an extra million bucks. Let me just throw it into some companies so I can lose it. No. They're putting a million dollars into those companies because they expect to get $10.15, $2,030,000,000 back. And the you know? And so you don't have to be the successful entrepreneur that sacrifices everything, your family, your your you know, seeing your kids' football game, your benefits from your job, you can take that extra money that you have, liquidity, the $50 you were gonna invest in the real estate that you got shut out of, or the $50 you were gonna use in your savings to start putting, you know, into starting a business and put that into 50 companies. Put it put 5,000 into 10 companies. Whatever. You know what I mean? There's so many ways that you can share in the success of those entrepreneurs that are solving a problem that you love, that have the gumption, the real desire to work those eighty, ninety hours a week that they have to work, and you they need your money to be successful.Karen Rands [00:29:55]:So it's a win win. When When you figure out how to do that, not only do you get to invest in entrepreneurs that you believe in that are doing something that you're also passionate about, but you share in their success without all the risk of being that entrepreneur.Stuart Webb [00:30:09]:Karen, that is absolutely the right way to end this because you've talked about some things which I'm really passionate about myself, and that is do not start going down the path of starting your own business unless you love what you're doing. Find find ways of supporting those people who do love what they're doing and work with them because so many I find so many business owners who aren't ready to do that. And they do what I call the path of least assistance. They don't look for the assistance they need. They battle out on their own, and they get tired, and it becomes difficult. And I just want to help get out of that problem. But that's another podcast which we will not start now because that's gone for another two and a half hours. So let me just finish by saying, Karen, thank you so much for spending a few minutes with us.Stuart Webb [00:30:57]:Really appreciate it. Love the energy. Love what you've done.

In this episode, we explore the impact of tech use and blue light on circadian biology, exploring how melanopsin and chromophores regulate physiology, mood, and cell functioning. The discussion highlights the leptin-melanocortin pathway, its role in placental physiology, and how ultra-weak biophotons from placental mitochondrial DNA influence fetal development, emphasizing the critical interplay of light and dark cycles in health.We further examine fetal brain development, focusing on mitochondria, neurogenesis, and the effects of UV light and nitric oxide on the thalamus and sensory integration. The episode connects BH4, tryptophan, and melanin deficits to Autism, discussing how environmental light and electromagnetic fields disrupt biological energy, contributing to neurodevelopmental problems and the Autistic phenotype.Daylight Computer Companyuse "autism" for $25 off athttps://buy.daylightcomputer.com/RYAN03139Chroma Iight Devicesuse "autism" for 10% discount athttps://getchroma.co/?ref=autism00:00 Daylight Computer Company, use "autism" for $25 discount04:17 leptin-melanocortin pathway, biophotons, mitochondria, POMC, nitric oxide, BH4, fetal, placental physiology, fertility, ultra-weak biophotons, maternal blood, quantum biology, melanin, UV08:00 endocannabinoid, UV light, 380 nanometer, melanopsin, photo switch, brain development, leptin, mTOR, mitochondria, thalamus, sensory integration center, neurogenesis, fetal thalamus12:00 nitric oxide, autism, BH4, fetal ATP production, tryptophan, cellular redox, BPA, fluoride, deuterium absorption, electromagnetic fields, semiconduction, brain growth, biological energy16:03 Chroma Lights for Humans, use "autism" for 10% discount20:04 leptin-melanocortin pathway, leptin, adipose tissue, melanopsin, hypothalamus, POMC, placental physiology, ultra-weak biophotons, melanin, semiconductor, antioxidant, maternal physiology, brain volume24:23 biophotons, living cells, mitochondrial activity, cellular communication, electromagnetic waves, UV light wavelengths, energy, mitochondria, reactive oxygen species, TCA cycle, placental efficiency, thalamic timing28:29 mitochondrial DNA, retrograde signaling, gene expression, environmental cues, autism, heteroplasmy, biophoton coherence, calcium release, acetyl coenzyme A, fetal thalamus, neurogenesis, environmental light32:29 leptin-melanocortin pathway, neurodevelopmental problems, biophotons, somnathogenesis, circadian abnormalities, melanin, neural semiconduction, hyper excitability, hyper connectivity, salience network, attention, autistic phenotype36:34 Reviews/Ratings, Contact InfoX: https://x.com/rps47586YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGxEzLKXkjppo3nqmpXpzuAemail: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com

I'm delighted this afternoon to be joined by Anne Bland. Anne is a coach and mentor with a range of experience, but mostly, she's gonna be talking this afternoon about how selfishly happy you, which I think is gonna be a really fast paced topic. It's how do business people become selfishly happy. So, Anne, welcome to It's Not Rocket Times, 5 questions over coffee. Looking forward to talking with you enormously today.Stuart Webb [00:01:02]:Thank you so much, Stuart, for having me. I'm really looking forward to this conversation.Anne Bland [00:01:07]:So can we just start by sort of, helping to define or, people to understand the sort of person that you're looking to help?Stuart Webb [00:01:18]:Right. My clients often are professionals who are leaders in their fields, either as entrepreneurs or working in an organization who kind of balance try to balance the work and life and not quite succeeding in that. So maybe there is a there is a there is, you know, one of them is well, managed, but the other one is not. So it's like kind of that compartmentalization that we all kind of, resort to as, as a go to method when we try to struggle too many things. It's easier to put things in a box, if you see what I mean. Mhmm. And not realize that they're interlinked.Anne Bland [00:01:58]:I did. And they are interlinked as well, aren't they? There's no doubt about it. Even though we want to all pretend that somehow we are, superheroes, we are human beings at the end of the day.Stuart Webb [00:02:09]:Yeah. And we are really not super, beings, I think. What's the the question? We're we're we're supposed to be human beings, not human doings and definitely not super doers. So I I definitely have a lot in my CV as you said. And I think that's the, that's the culprit why I've burned out myself few times in my life. And it's not really something that I take pride in, cause you, everybody's about to in, in modern stressful life to burn out or get exhausted once in their lifetime, but not three times. I mean, you know, you start thinking, what's gone wrong there? So I think I've learned my lesson and really got my teeth in over the last 5, 6 years to understand what makes us happy, joyful, pleasure filled human beings.Anne Bland [00:03:03]:So we'll come onto that, I think in a minute, Anne, because I think there's some really good stuff you've got to say. But let's start by talking about sort of things that people have done Mhmm. Who are perhaps not quite getting the help they need that you can provide. What is it that they've done themselves to try and resolve some of these issues? How would they recognize themselves and go, oh, wait. They're talking about me. Perhaps this is this is the time when they should really start to take notice.Stuart Webb [00:03:34]:I think it is that compartmentalization I said earlier, you know, where you want to kind of put things in particular boxes and, okay, I I leave that there. You know, my marriage is not very good or my work life, I'm struggling in in particular relationships. And I try to kind of just avoid that. The other thing is, because there is some other aspects in life that are bringing fulfilment and joy and, and a sense of achievement. The, the other thing I see is that people just tend to plough through stress. So there is this kind of magical thinking that if I just get into the Christmas or if I can just get into the, before the summer holiday starts, if I can get through this week and then it's the weekend and I can catch up and relax or I can, I, but, but it doesn't happen that way, unfortunately? And then the other thing is that I see a lot is that people don't think, especially in men, that self care is something that one ought to be, investing in. And if, if, if they ask their, family, they say, yeah, why don't you just look after yourself a little bit, demon? There is that kind of, opportunity to actually learn what makes each one of us more calm, happier, more pleasure filled, and peaceful, and also joyful to be around with. And I think it's that kind of understanding that self care is not just for women or self care is something that actually needs to be one of those pillars that we invest in and get tremendous return on investment.Stuart Webb [00:05:15]:I'd say, regardless who you are, regardless of your status, regardless of your, agenda.Anne Bland [00:05:23]:So let's talk about some of those things that you you do to help people understand that self care, that, that ability to, as you put it in your your bar lines, to be selfishly happy. And it's got a bad reputation, hasn't it? But actually, you know, a bit like when you're here when you're on a flight, it tells you to put the oxygen mask on yourself first before helping anybody else because how can you possibly help somebody else if you've fallen unconscious or, and you are unable to sort of do anything. So let's talk a little bit about what does it mean to be selfishly happy. Let's talk a little bit about that. And then perhaps you could sort of I know you've got some some some things, some valuable advice, some valuable free things that you'd like to sort of bring to the audience. So perhaps you could describe those, and and talk a little bit about that.Stuart Webb [00:06:13]:Yes. So putting that oxygen mask on yourself first before helping others is, is is something that I talk a lot about because I feel that, again, it's embedded in my own experience. I'm very passionate person. I want to change the world. I want peace and happiness all around. And then I realized that, you know, when you work in that kind of social impact or environmental impact, scene, you tend to burn out very quickly because you can't control the external externalities. And the only thing I can change is how I react, how I feel and how, what kind of energy I bring into any table, any situation, any relationship, any work. And, and I think that's the, that's the key is really kind of going in.Stuart Webb [00:07:03]:And that's why I call it selfishly happy because it is putting that oxygen mask on yourself first. And also if you become selfless, like we're all told, especially women that, oh, you just need to serve others. You need to be helpful. And, you know, you know, don't put yourself, you know, it's, it's bad. It's egoistic. And I'm not talking about ecocentricity. I'm talking about, becoming more of you becoming self full in a way because selfless can, can become quite toxic eventually. You know, it can become a person can become bitter or, or, or, or a doormat or people pleaser or, or, you know, that there is, there is a balance to be had.Stuart Webb [00:07:47]:And I believe if we are in good health, if we are in good energy, we are happy, we have so much more to give out to others and to the world at large. So there is this kind of understanding that it starts from within and more we can regulate our own nervous system, just talking about sort of neuroscience spiel it's, speak it's, it's, it's more important to actually regulate your own nervous system so that you don't come across as aggressive or, or you don't come across as, as somebody who is just, there for themselves or, or, you know, just avoiding situations that actually benefit from having frank discussions, for instance. So it is, it is that kind of play with words if you like. And I do know that lots of people are, well, you can't say selfish. And I said, well, let's just, you know, really understand what's behind it as opposed to, you know, getting to the, preconceived idea. So it is kind of deliberate to stop people to think and kind of what do I actually mean by that? What is it to become happy truly? It is to know what you need. It is know how to get what you need, and it is understanding what your fears and anxieties are and taking care of those.Anne Bland [00:09:08]:So we've got a question from Mark. And perhaps this leads into some of what you're gonna talk about in terms of the valuable free advice you've got for our audience. But but Mark asked, in your opinion, what does self care look like for a man? And I suspect it probably isn't just going to the the nail spa and getting your nails done. Although, you know, let's face it. It could be that. But I mean, what is it that you would say men, in particular, should be looking for in terms of what they need to do to care for themselves to make them, efficient and effective human beings?Stuart Webb [00:09:45]:Thank you, Mark. That's a that's a very good question, and I really appreciate, you, raising your hand and asking that question. It looks very different to different people, of course, regardless what gender you are, but there is a lot of energy that men have that, that I think for instance, exercise is something that often men don't do because it is something that, you know, that there is there, there are responsibilities at home, there's responsibilities at work. So it is very easy to stop that. And maybe then just sit down when you're exhausted and open the telly, open a can of beer And, and nothing, no judgment there, but it is, it, it could be something that, what is it that, and I think whoever you are is to really ask that question to do that pausing and kind of do the list. What is it that really makes me feel good? You know, it's for somebody it is, you know, have a good, male friend who loves art. You know, he just goes to the art classes on every Saturday morning. You know, he just goes off and does art.Stuart Webb [00:10:50]:You know, whether it's, painting flowers or painting nudes, I don't know, but it is, you know, amazing that you can just kind of realise that, okay, what makes me happy? What is the time when I can, you know, play chess with somebody on the other side of the world or, or do a game of some sort? You know, it is, it is that, but also it is the need to, to spend time on your own. And I think one of the biggest things I've noticed with relationships is that often, especially if one of the, one of them in the relationship is, is a home maker. They often feel very, isolated or they, they just yearn for having an adult conversation. And the other one comes from work and just yearns for solitude and yearns for having, oh, I just, let me just get my coat off. And, you know, let me just, you know, have 5 minutes to actually state those boundaries and saying, look, can I just have my 10 minutes? And I'll just go to the bedroom, get changed, and I just lie down for a while. I just need to empty my head and land into the home life. And I think this is very important that people learn to communicate what they need so that they don't become begrudged and and oppressed and suppressed just because we tend to please people that we love.Anne Bland [00:12:16]:Just a small insight from my own life, which I think sort of illustrates the difficulties with this week. Then in my household, there were 2 busy very busy professionals both, you know, pushing hard at their career and a child. And it was a rule that the one that picked up the child from nursery or school got home, did childcare, and the other one would spend 10 minutes on the drive before they came in. Because the minute they walked through the door, responsibility passed to the other one because they haven't had their downtime. And so therefore, there was this sort of an it was, it's unwritten. We had discussed it, but it was the rule that you spend the 10 minutes in the car decompressing because the minute you walk through the door, I haven't had my 10 minutes to decompress. Yeah. And immediately, you've got you've got the responsibility for making sure that nobody's nobody's doing anything silly because I need to just go away for a few seconds.Anne Bland [00:13:07]:And it was quite difficult to balance because sometimes they'd look and go, I I may have had my 10 minutes in the car, but frankly I could do with another 10 minutes in the house. And it's like, I don't care. I'm sorry. I need the time. So we you've gotta learn to communicate these things and balance them, haven't you?Stuart Webb [00:13:24]:Yes. Absolutely. And congratulations for that awareness and that practice because that again is it's not just about yourself, but it is starting from yourself. What do you need? And asking for it, communicating it with a with a kind of nonviolent loving way and making the, making the, the, plan and whether it's outspoken, whether it's a practice, but it is, it is important to actually, have that understanding. And I would always, always, champion talking because we often think that, you know, oh, they understand, but often they don't. So it is good to actually spell it out and, and talk about it. I've got so many ideas that I could share here, but I wantAnne Bland [00:14:08]:to, I want to keep it to, to your time limit. So over to you.Anne Bland [00:14:12]:Oh, we have no, we have no time limit. If you wish to talk for the next hour, we will let you out.Anne Bland [00:14:18]:You don't know what you're leashing here unleashing here.Anne Bland [00:14:22]:Oh, maybe it can. Maybe 45 minutes. So but there is there there's obviously some stuff on your website which which we could go and have a look at. Can can you describe some of the stuff that we'll find there and and and some and how we might access, you know, what what we what we'll access it?Stuart Webb [00:14:35]:Well, my my website is not actually very much geared towards, things yet. It's, it's something I it's under development, but, I really want to create a library of tools that people can start practising because I strongly believe that there is, there is this culture at workplaces where people are demanded to push through that stress. Then the organisations are wondering, well, why the hell do we have such a staff turnover? And we all know how much staff turnover costs for organisations. Well actually not everybody understands the wider impact. You know, you might kind of look at the recruitment costs and, and, you know, teaching somebody to, to land in their new job, but actually it's not just that it's somebody else working 3 to 4 jobs at the same time whilst they are recruiting a new person or somebody is learning. So, so it is also impacts on their health and so on and so on. So it's just lots of ripple effects. So do you have a kind of, library anywhere where we can actually drop in, for instance, I was just teaching today, in another call, in another group, and an old Taoist practice called the inner smile.Stuart Webb [00:15:49]:And this is something I definitely want to put on the website is how a busy person, even during the work day can just take 2 minutes or even just 2 seconds and just practice in a smile. It's one of the most effective ways of getting your nervous system, which is often at work days during work days in, in this kind of, reactionary, you know, stress response of, of fight flight, which is important. Otherwise we don't get anything done. But we are also designed to be more a human being in that rest digest parasympathetic nervous system response where we can sleep without needing to take sleeping pills or your, your normal whisky or whatever. So it is, it is important to, not, not knowing whether you have whisky. So I'm not saying, well, I'm, I'm, you know what I mean? It's very easy to think that in the morning we need coffee in the evening, we need an alcohol, you know, drink to, to, to calm us down. So it is, it is kind of things like breath work. It is meditation.Stuart Webb [00:16:51]:It is about, doing, embodiment practices, just like, you know, sport is, you know, exercises or just, you know, shaking and dancing a little bit, to let that tension go and stretching, you know, just very simple things like this and just learning how to breathe so that you can access that parasympathetic nervous system. So it is interesting how people think of, well, of course I can breathe. Of course I can smile, but how many actually do it? You know, we could when we are in that stress response, even our breathing becomes like kind of, we hold breath a lot. And we just but when you actually get into that parasympathetic nervous system response, what I observe is that people start, oh, there is that sigh and there is, oh, isn't it delicious just to be and just just relax. And you could just do this like a microsecond, and it will be money in the bank, in your energy bank and well-being and and happiness bank. So things like that. It's quite simple things I'd like to offer to people.Anne Bland [00:18:04]:Indeed. And and I know the power of breathing, myself because I've been doing I've been learning better breathing techniques myself, for for other reasons other than standing here doing this. And one of the things that we've been trying to learn how to do is the fact that when you breathe in rather than sort of doing this with your shoulders, which is, you know, how we're able to breathe bring immediately bring the whole music tension is to just breathe deeply from down into the diaphragm down low. And then you don't hold it. You just suspend. You just relax and allow the air to be there rather than thinking about it. And it's quite difficult to sort of turn your mindset to this ability to think, well, I'm just gonna allow the breath to be in me. But it's actually really powerful because it stops you trying to sort of do.Anne Bland [00:18:53]:You learn how to sort of just enjoy the experience of saying, okay. I'm now standing. I'm completely relaxed. I'm not actually holding my my my my tension anymore. Nothing's happened. The air hasn't just suddenly disappeared. It's it's still there, and then you can breathe out later. And it is a mindset thing, isn't it? Learning how to control your feelings, learning how to control of that.Anne Bland [00:19:15]:And and it brings a sense of calm as you do it because otherwise, you're sort of fighting your body.Stuart Webb [00:19:21]:Yeah. And have you ever heard, you know, this expression that any any place, any organization is a reflection of the leader?Anne Bland [00:19:28]:Absolutely. And I'm watching it with an organization now and just Yeah. Aware of just we can talk a little bit about this. There is toxicity, and the suggestion from the management was shut down the office. We'll never we'll never change this culture. And I went, I think the culture starts here. Oh, really? And you can change the culture at the bottom if we just change 1 or 2 things around the management. And yet, there was this sort of, oh, no.Anne Bland [00:19:53]:We just sack everybody. It will solve the problem, which was a very disappointing thing to hear.Stuart Webb [00:19:59]:Yeah. I don't think transformation organizational transformation works quite like that. But just as a as a simple example, just taking your breathing, ex example. And you were saying that how it's so easy to kind of be like this, you know, and just hunch, you know, just, you know, your shoulders are 10 tense and all that. But the studies show that a person, in terms of body language, you know, just the idea that who do you trust is somebody who has a long, distance from ear to their shoulder. So when people were shown pictures,Anne Bland [00:20:38]:I was thinking, oh, I've got, shoulder pad you know, pads in this jacket. So, oh, dear. Should have chosen a different jacket or or blouse.Stuart Webb [00:20:47]:But but but it is it is that kind of when when somebody's like this, you kind of, you know, people were shown pictures. And when they were looking at people who were like this, you know, it's kind of, oh, I don't trust that person. So if there is that kind of energy that somebody is going to launch at you, you know, from the management, you know, like you said, you know, there is that toxicity. It's not going to change by changing the, the people who are below them. It is about, okay, how can we relax this, this, this boss or this, this C suit, in this organisation so that they can learn like you just demonstrated how you're breathing differently and how you can just, you know, and it's it's simple as that because we are animals in so many ways. We have that primitive, you know, ancient brain. And when we see somebody who actually holds themselves with esteem and has that posture of calmness, and I'm you know, we feel that, okay, they are in control. You know, it's not like, you know, you need to kind of because they are reflecting this fight flight, you know, all the time.Stuart Webb [00:21:55]:It's quite fascinating how this all kind of links together. And there are so many tools we can use in organizations where we kind of, okay, just mini, micro, micro pausing, just become aware, and then use habits like breathing, like in a smile, like just being present with your with your physical body through your 5 senses. What can you hear? What can you see? What can you feel? Just doing this, you know, for for, 10 seconds. Just trying to feel the ridges of your fingers with your, if if this people can't see the picture, you know, the video. It's it's just putting 2 fingers like your thumb and your, first finger together. And for 10 seconds, which is about 3 breaths to to just move your fingers and just really focus on on feeling the ridges of your skin in on on on those fingertips. And even that simple 10 second, 3 breath exercise will put you into your body, out of your thinking mind where the anxiety often lives, you know, and just fall into your body and kind of, you know, it doesn't have to be. Even if you're in a meeting in a boardroom and you can just do that when you start feeling anxious.Stuart Webb [00:23:14]:You know, it will help you to calm down and get into that, parasympathetic nervous system. And there's so many other things.Anne Bland [00:23:22]:And was there a particular book, of course? I mean, you have a a a a very, very wide career, but, obviously, this is this is this is this is something that's that's that's come to you. Is there a particular book, of course, that you, read or took that actually started this journey for you?Stuart Webb [00:23:39]:Well, I think 10 years ago when I burned out last time and I I decided to to resign and and divorce and all sorts of things happened, and started, learning everything. You know, it was I was like a sponge. I I realized that I didn't have joy and pleasure in my life. I just been on that kind of autopilot. Oh, you know, just one more day, one more week, one more month, and I'll make it through or, or whatever it is that we tell these quite toxic stories to ourselves. Which is fine because we're just trying to cope. You know, it's okay. I'm not judging here.Stuart Webb [00:24:18]:It's just that we the society hasn't taught us how to look after ourselves. So I can't pinpoint. I'm really sorry. I can't, I know you asked this and I can't just choose 1. You know, I can't choose 1 because I've studied positive psychology and intelligence. I've studied breathwork. I've studied, how pleasure works for our favor. I've studied Taoism.Stuart Webb [00:24:45]:I've studied, so many things, neuroscience, you know, neuroplasticity, all these kinds of, how do we create positive habits so that we can look after each other ourselves and then, you know, each other, because like we said, the energy and the, the nervous system, emits to others is going to impact other people just like in that organizational structure, but also at home. So I've learned tantra as well. I've learned so many different things in terms of philosophies, practices, and, ways in which, you know, I feel that if we have the self awareness that, okay, this is what I need, how am I going to get it? So what are the tools and processes and practices? So having that self mastery. And then eventually, how do we express ourselves in the world, in our relationships in a more balanced, constructive way so that we can actually have that impactful, passionate mission, purpose filled life? Because that's what every human being in the end of the day is looking for is to have a meaningful life.Anne Bland [00:25:56]:So that leads me, I guess, to the last question I have for you this afternoon. I'll let you get along with something. I know you're not you need to get on and do and that Yeah. Is there a question I haven't asked you? Is there something that you're thinking, well, he's missed the point. He's just completely misunderstood what we're trying to do here. Is there a question that I should have asked, which you would like me to have asked? I don't know. And you have to answer it.Stuart Webb [00:26:22]:Well, I don't know. I mean, in terms of the Not really. I think we've discovered quite a lot of things, and, and it's it's as long as piece of string, isn't it? It's like kind of we can talk about this much. And when you said, oh, you have an open mic, I said, you don't want that because I will talk. You know, I will talk for England. I will talk for the world. So, now I think I would I would perhaps invite people to ask questions if there is anybody in the audience that, I don't know if Mark has already letAnne Bland [00:26:58]:Well, we well, I'd say we have Mark who asked. And the only question he's he has made it, the third comment is, it's hard to be there for someone if you're going through stress and you're struggling to deal with it. So my my sympathies, if, if that's your situation. I know how difficult it can be. And, Mark has just given us a compliment. So that's very kind of you, Mark. Thank you very much for for enjoying it. And I hope I I don't think I've done very much to contribute other than ask Anne the right questions, but Anne, you've got a huge amount of knowledge, a huge amount of value that you've added this afternoon.Anne Bland [00:27:30]:I really appreciate how much effort you've put into this, and I thank you very much for coming on and speaking to us. I just one thing. If, Anne is in the process of, of of of of building things, so, you will continue to be able to see, a lot of the free stuff that we have at, for this website where people give away free advice. But if you go to go.systmise.comforward/freehyphen stuff, you'll find a list of all the free things that, people have given away. And if you would like to get an email every week, who just will tell you exactly is coming up so that you can join as Mark did today and spend some time asking questions of people I can. Go to go.systmise.comforward/subscribe. It's a simple form. First name, email address, all we want, just so that you get an email, which basically says, who's coming up this week?

I have in my hand what is left of, a mug of coffee. It's not quite as full as it was earlier on today, but I wanna welcome Steve Feld. Steve is a business coach, who works with a a range of different organizations, range of different businesses. I think we're gonna get into some interesting conversations about the sort of thing he's trying to do at the moment to help businesses move forward in what we can all describe, I guess, as some interesting times. So, Steve, welcome to It's Not Rocket Science, 5 questions over coffee. I hope you're ready for, an interesting few questions, and I hope you too are well fueled up.Steve Feld [00:01:12]:I am well fueled up. I my blood type is coffee, so I am ready forStuart Webb [00:01:16]:you. Terrific. Steve, let's start with the the sort of, the business owner, the business that you're trying to help. What's the what's the problem that you often see? And I know, we're likely to have a lot of common common common problems, but what are the more common ones that you see, when you start to engage with those businesses?Steve Feld [00:01:37]:Absolutely. Since I work primarily with small business owners, entrepreneurs, the biggest thing I see is they really don't know who their target market is.Stuart Webb [00:01:46]:Mhmm.Steve Feld [00:01:47]:And that starts affecting everything else, and they wonder why no one their messaging isn't working, why their elevator pitch isn't working, why nothing's working. It's because you're trying to be everything to everyone. And reality is you're nothing to everyone because they don't Yeah.Stuart Webb [00:02:06]:It's it's common, isn't it, that so many people desperately don't want to exclude somebody. But the fact of the matter is that by being targeted and very specific, you will attract other people anyway because it sounds as if you know what you're talking about.Steve Feld [00:02:22]:Yeah. It's absolutely it's like putting the red rope up. Right? Get books from get books solid. You put the red rope up, you only let the people you want in. Guess what? People now wanna be in, so they're gonna form a line outside. That's what you want.Stuart Webb [00:02:40]:Yeah. And and so often as well as small business owners, I come across they they very, very rarely actually do their level best to actually screen, and they end up being sort of open to too many people and unable to help the people who really, really need it.Steve Feld [00:02:56]:It's so true. It's the messaging too. It's like, as consumers, we're all the same. If it let's say you don't eat fast food. So if there's a fast food commercial on, you zone it out because you're not their target market, and they know that. So what So, Steve,Stuart Webb [00:03:16]:so so, Steve, what do you find these business owners have done in the past to try and help themselves before they they get somebody like you and to sort of really help them to refine their pitch and refine their their offering so that it becomes targeted at a particular at a particular niche person?Steve Feld [00:03:33]:Absolutely. I mean, the first thing I was telling was, like, well, you have cuss if you have customers now, let's see who they are. Let's look at their demographics, psychographics. And I did that with one of my clients, he thought his market was x y z and when we looked at his clientele it was a b c. He changed his marketing and found out that people still went with him because they liked him. They ignored his message. I mean, it happened in one of my businesses. I'm wondering I was targeting, you know, financial planner CPAs, and then one day I woke up, realized I'm booked to the gills with clients, and not one of them was my target market.Steve Feld [00:04:12]:And so I asked my clients, like, why did you go with me? They go, we just ignored CPA. Everything else in your message really spoke to me. Yeah. So Yeah.Stuart Webb [00:04:22]:I got rid of it. It's surprising, isn't it? And so often, we sort of we look at these things as sort of, you know, that it's gonna it's gonna hurt me, but in actual fact, it absolutely never hurts you, does it?Steve Feld [00:04:33]:No. If your if your message is still in the ballpark, it's okay. You're gonna be alright. But getting it on home plate, you're gonna knock it out of the park all the time. And I I see that with entrepreneurs when I ask them, so what do you do? And they go on and on. Well, we're all the same. We all zone out. But if it's crystal clear, who here's who hires me.Steve Feld [00:04:56]:Here's my market. Here are their problems. Here's how I solve them. Guess what? You have my attention even if I am not your market.Stuart Webb [00:05:04]:Yeah. Absolutely. Steve, I think you've got some really valuable advice that you can give to the audience at the moment that helps focus in on this, and I've got a a link, I believe, that you are you're gonna do, to help us out with. So tell us a little bit about what this valuable free piece of, advice is that you have. Yeah.Steve Feld [00:05:23]:I with my very first book, I've written 9 others since then, but it's 8 simple marketing strategies that you can put in your business right away without spending money. Because since I know my market, it's like they're getting beaten up like you're supposed to buy Google Ads, you're supposed to buy all this. No. Let's hone in on your messaging, get it crystal clear, implement just 1 or 2 of these marketing strategies at a time, and really start seeing some massive results fast.Stuart Webb [00:05:54]:Now that sounds like a valuable free piece of advice, and I'm really glad that you've done that, Steve. So if we go to bizcoachsteve.comforward/100co, so that's, bizcoachsteve.comforward/100k, and that link will be in the show notes. There's a valuable very valuable piece of advice for you, a free book that will help you to put that into your business. So, Steve, what other than you said, there are 9 books in your in your in your repertoire. What was the thing that actually brought you to being a coach with this very simple, specific, really useful message for people?Steve Feld [00:06:30]:Well, I've been there, done it. I mean, unfortunately, I've had highs and lows. I've owned and operated 7 businesses and turned now a 4th my 4th one around. I learned the good things and the bad things in one of the things I learned from being around other business owners is make sure your messaging is spot on. Really know who your target market was. Because I started like everyone else. I actually started writing business plans for tech startups, so it was very, very niche. And I didn't do business plans for anyone else but tech startups.Steve Feld [00:07:09]:And I was swamped. I had a waiting list. So then I started expanding out, and that's when I realized stay in your lane, and everything got better.Stuart Webb [00:07:20]:Mhmm. Okay. Okay. It's back to that simple. You know who you help. You know how you help them, and you know who those people are. You can definitely sort of you where you you you when you start explaining the things that you can do, you definitely find yourself in a position where those other people, see the advice you can give. But by knowing exactly how you help somebody, you can reach out and help them, can't you? I often say to people that are well, small business owners who are very afraid of selling, they'll say to, you know, they say, well, I don't really like selling myself.Stuart Webb [00:07:50]:And I sort of I can often turn around and say, well, stop thinking of it as being somebody that sells anything. Just think of being some somebody who's very helpful. And you just know how you help and why you help them. And people will pay you for the privilege of helping them. And that's all you need to do.Steve Feld [00:08:06]:You're a 100 spec spot on. I always call it sell without selling. Serve first. What can I do for you? And watch the the results versus we've all been to these networking events where someone is hawking I call it hawking your junk because you're you wanna build a connection, but if I can come to you and say, hey, Stewart. Is there something you need? Someone I can connect you with? Some kind of resource I can provide you that's gonna help you in your business? I don't want anything in return. What can I do for you? I think it's more valuable than buy my junk.Stuart Webb [00:08:43]:That's a brilliant that's a really brilliant piece of advice. Steve, I I guess we've I I've asked you I've asked you some some interesting questions. I guess you've thought that I probably asked you the wrong questions. So here's my opportunity to throw over to you. There must be one question that you would like me to ask or one question you would like me to have already asked that that is gonna help people to sort of really understand what your message is here. So what's that one question that you want me to ask? And, obviously, once you've asked it, well, you're gonna have to answer it for us as well. So tell us, what's the question that I needed to have asked?Steve Feld [00:09:19]:One thing I see with entrepreneurs is they when they start a business or even have an existing business, It's what can I do to get myself out there? And out there is marketing their name recognition. And one of the biggest things I see, it depends on the industry too. So if I, can go to networking events, maybe like insurance or something like that, that's the way they build their network. That's how they get out there. But there's other ways too, because you could be the expert in something. We're all experts in something. Use it your expertise. Get on a stage.Steve Feld [00:10:00]:Get on a podcast. Get on a summit. Share your knowledge. Write a book. I kid you not, I used to have a publishing company. I was cofounder of it, and we had a publishing company for entrepreneurs. So we wrote their book, and it was all done in less than 1 week.Stuart Webb [00:10:20]:Wow.Steve Feld [00:10:20]:So now they become a published author, they're an authoritative figure, and they can give this book away as a marketing piece. And we saw these businesses skyrocket just by telling their story.Stuart Webb [00:10:36]:It sounds so simple. It sounds so simple, but it's not that easy to execute, is it?Steve Feld [00:10:42]:Because being, you know, business owners, it's do you have a laundry list of things to do? Yeah. And I'll get to that one day. Well,Stuart Webb [00:10:51]:if youSteve Feld [00:10:51]:have some there's plenty of people like me out there that can help you. All they have to do is sit down with you. I swear to god, in 1 hour, you're gonna see massive results, and you're gonna start taking action right away. Guess what? It's gonna be done before you blink.Stuart Webb [00:11:09]:Yeah. Yeah. Brilliant. I think the the the the most important piece of advice that I was given many, many years ago when I first started with my business career was somebody sat me down and said, remember, if you can achieve the one thing that moves your business forward today before 11 o'clock, the rest of the day is free for you because you've already done the massive action. If you leave it until 4 o'clock in the afternoon, you've wasted the whole day. So get it done. Get the one thing you know you've gotta get done that day, get it done, and everything else is a bonus. If there's one thing I've taken away from it, it is sit down and do that one thing, which actually moves the business forward and get it done.Steve Feld [00:11:52]:I couldn't agree with you more. It's you know, eat that frog. Get that big audacious goal out of the way. Although others will fall into place, and you're gonna love it.Stuart Webb [00:12:04]:Brilliant. Steve, I think this has been a brilliant discussion. I hope everybody takes you up on the offer of getting that book, and I hope that they understand the the focus that you've given them. I'd just like to to point you in the direction of the newsletter we produce, which is, we we send out a newsletter once a week, which basically says who's coming up on the podcast.

Presentación del casoUna joven de 23 años acude a la consulta decidida a adoptar una dieta vegetariana. Es alegre y motivada, mide 1.65 metros y pesa 60 kg. Inicialmente asegura que quiere mejorar su salud, contribuir al cuidado del planeta y reducir el sufrimiento animal.Objetivo inicialEl objetivo inicial planteado por la paciente es recibir orientación para realizar una transición adecuada hacia una alimentación vegetariana equilibrada, asegurando cubrir sus necesidades nutricionales básicas.Proceso y abordaje inicialDurante las primeras consultas, proporciona múltiples preguntas y manifiesta entusiasmo por aprender cómo sustituir adecuadamente las proteínas animales, qué suplementos tomar y cómo equilibrar su dieta. Sin embargo, comienzan a surgir indicios preocupantes:Muestra ansiedad significativa respecto a alimentos categorizados como "buenos" o "malos".Control obsesivo de las calorías y las porciones.Restricción severa de carbohidratos, grasas y un consumo casi exclusivo de frutas, verduras y derivados de soja, evitando otras fuentes proteicas como las legumbres.Preocupación extrema por evitar alimentos procesados veganos, independientemente de su calidad nutricional.Descubrimiento y nuevo enfoque al TCAEn consultas posteriores, profundizo en su entorno personal, social y laboral, revelando que trabaja como dependienta en tiendas de moda exclusivas y de lujo, donde existe una gran presión por mantener una imagen física concreta. Además, frecuenta círculos sociales muy enfocados en la estética corporal. Durante una sesión especialmente emotiva, rompe a llorar y admite que eligió el vegetarianismo como una forma socialmente aceptada de enmascarar un trastorno de la conducta alimentaria (TCA), ligado a años de dietas restrictivas y una profunda inseguridad respecto a su peso e imagen corporal.Resultados finalesTras identificar claramente el trastorno alimentario subyacente, ajustamos radicalmente el enfoque terapéutico. Comenzamos a trabajar conjuntamente con un psicólogo especializado en TCA, centrándonos en reconstruir una relación sana con la comida. La paciente aprendió gradualmente a adoptar una alimentación verdaderamente saludable y equilibrada, abandonando progresivamente las prácticas restrictivas y mejorando significativamente su bienestar emocional y autoestima.Conviértete en un seguidor de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/comiendo-con-maria-nutricion--2497272/support.

#277 - In August 1975, 8-year-old Gretchen Harrington left her parent's house in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, heading to summer vacation Bible school class. The church was less than a mile up the road, and she had walked it many times in the past, but something about this morning was different. Gretchen never made it.  Two months later, her remains were found by a jogger in Ridley Creek State Park. Next to the remains were her neatly folded clothes, and her underwear was found hung in a nearby tree branch. The case went unsolved for decades and remained a haunting mystery in the community for nearly 50 years. Then, in 2023, there was a significant breakthrough leading to an arrest. But the man arrested wasn't exactly the person you'd expect to commit a crime like this.  Support If you love the show, the easiest way to show your support is by leaving us a positive rating with a review.
