In This Episode You'll Hear About:What it was like to grow up as the eldest of five in Ireland in a family of entrepreneurs who are third generation manufacturers of construction clothing and why she went into techWhy her dad encouraged her to go study business instead of dietetics and why she saw the wisdom in that laterWhat moved her over to California to work for Google and then AirbnbWhat her experiences at Airbnb taught her about how to create a healthy family culture within a company and not just grow fast, but grow well with a strong teamWhat brought about the need in Laura's life for a company like Bobbie and what compelled her to develop a product and work on it for four years before launchingWhy she believes confidence and great referrals from past experiences are helpful in raising funds with investors, even if you don't have metrics yet to shareHow fundraising has gone for Bobbie through traditional VC funding and also the nontraditional raising through Republic, which has including over 200 momsWhat the process of obtaining the FDA green light was like, what lessons came through it, and why it is the way it isWhat great advice she has on how to successfully lead a startup and what is next for BobbieTo Find Out More:HiBobbie.comQuotes:“Becoming an entrepreneur myself now, have I realized that the currency to join a startup is really energy. It's passion. It's your connection to what's being built.”“And it was during this I realized I love fast-growth companies. I love being in the middle of it. I loved being on call at random hours because that kind of adrenaline to be building something that wasn't just a massive revenue driver, but it was a culture changer is so impactful.”“I think that's part of an entrepreneurial journey, which is, you spot opportunities by seeing the ridiculousness of why certain things are the way they are.”“It continued to hit me that they are buying into my passion, my confidence, my ability to execute. What I had was, very fortunately, a decade of experience in the tech world and fast-growing companies to be able to point to to show that I did have a track record of getting shit done.”“We were very intentional about spending the two years prior to launching and building community. And often products and companies will say, ‘well you can't do that until you have a product on the market.' And for us, it wasn't just about the product, it was about shaking the stigma, having the conversation.” “When we went to market, we had hundreds of moms who were dying to share that we had just launched. I believe that is kind of the secret sauce of what allowed the business to take off.”“It was an education of the industry that we are about to walk into. We are walking into an industry that is heavily regulated with massive companies watching your every move.”“The people that you find that are completely irreplaceable for you, you give them the world because they are worth the world. Your entire company goes around because of the people that you hire and how you recognize them, reward them, support them.” “There are hands down people that give me the sweats at night if I thought about losing them...because they truly are founders, owners, developers of this business more than myself. They are incredible.”“As a CEO, your job is to build the machine that runs, and every component of that machine is its people.”“How you support the exit of an individual in the business will say everything about your leadership.”

Was it the leadership? Was it the system? Was it just bad luck? Dan went to work, doing whatever he could to level up his business skills so he could get back into real estate full-time and do so in a way that allowed him to scale.Now, after going through many of life's lessons, Dan is doing phenomenally, with him and his team closing on 12+ wholesale deals a month, getting him close to $200k in monthly revenue.

We all have a vision for where we want to go, but making a plan for how to get there is another thing altogether. In this episode, 4Sight Founder and CEO Jenni Catron shares practical questions we can ask that help us build a successful strategy to achieve our vision and reach our goals.Some highlights from Jenni's teaching:Be sure to listen to Episodes 27, 28 and 29 in which Jenni, Jeff Henderson and Tim Lucas explore the theme of Strategy!3 P's of StrategyPatiencePurpose Perspective 3 Questions to Ask to Create a Successful Strategy1. Where do you want to go? If your vision is the destination, your strategy is the route you take to get there. Brainstorm the list of goals and ideas you want to enact in the next year.Narrow your list to 2-3 goals to focus on for the next year. (Remember: If everything is important, nothing is.) 2. What is realistic?Unrealistic goals discourage and demotivate your team. Consider time commitment, budget, staffing, etc. Be honest and revise goals as necessary. 3. How will we get there?Get even MORE specific by asking:Who is responsible for leading through this goal? Who wakes up feeling responsible for making progress toward this goal? Needs to be 1 person and it should always be you!What are the steps necessary to accomplish it?The 4 Disciplines of Execution defines these steps as “lead measures” (most high-impact things your team must do to reach the goal)They must be predictive of reaching the goal They can be influenced by the teamWhat are the key dates and deadlines? Accountability helps lead to progress.Does budget need to be allocated?Answering these questions will help you move from ideas to action!If you want to take action on creating your strategic plan, download our free workbook by texting “4sight” to 773-770-4377 or click here.Share your strategic plans with us on twitter or instagram at @get4sight or on Facebook at The 4Sight Group.

We stopped about 38 minutes through our coaching time and one of the Owners asked, “could you help us just sell our business?” He was frustrated with his construction company because construction is hard. With all of the lead hunting, bidding, questioning, job costing, crew recruiting, scheduling, material ordering, monitoring other people's schedules, weather delays, and market variations...construction is hard. Instead of selling your business out of frustration (not usually a good idea), what if you proactively designed your business to sell and then stuck with it? If you want a business that could sell here is a roadmap that is easy to follow and requires loads of vision, discipline, and repetition to implement. Put in the work now, and you will see the returns later. Here are a few items that are non-negotiables in order to lead a business that you can sell... First, you must write your vision story. The wisdom is true, if you do not have a written vision you (and others) will scatter. There are seven categories to think through when writing your vision: Duration: How far out do you see your vision? Usually no more than 36 months. Family & Freedom: How does the vision for your business impact your family and your personal time? Financials: How do you make your business profitable so you can serve both inside and outside of the business? Products & Services: What do you offer the market and what do you not offer the market? Team: What roles will be needed to serve those products and services to generate the defined financials? Client & Customers: Who do you serve best and who do you not serve best? Culture: When someone comes into contact with your business what words or phrases do you hope they would use to describe your business? Second, you must write and constantly repeat your mission and unique core values. Whereas your vision story is a detailed, multi-page description of the future of your business, a mission statement is distilled from your vision and should pack a massive punch! A mission in the well documented writings and talks of Simon Sinek is simply “your why”. It is a short on sentence phrase, less than 10-15 words telling us exactly why you got out of bed this morning. For Business On Purpose we liberate business owners from chaos. That's it. Our vision is four pages long and takes a longer time to reveal. If you are not interested or impacted by our mission, if it does not grab you then you will likely not be interested in our vision story. By distilling our vision into a short, punchy mission we have been gracious and saved you time so you can either go deeper with us or move on to something else. Your unique core values are the guardrails of decision making in your business. When we make a decision at Business On Purpose we run each of those decisions through our vision, our mission, and then five unique core values (unique values are not integrity, responsibility, and excellence...we should ALL value those). Here our five unique values: Work IS Faith On Not In Automated Strategy Relentless Learning Full Implementation You will make haphazard, confusing decisions that violate your vision if you are not constantly reviewing and repeating your mission and values. Third, you must have a documented set of repeatable and trainable systems and processes. This is typically where most owners begin to really nod their head in agreement and internally battle because they know that the intention to build systems and processes does not equal the actual work it takes to build them. Some of the systems and processes that must exist and be used regularly are items like… Delegation roadmaps Tracking Dashboard(s) Budget/Bookkeeping/Accounts Team Meetings process and agendas Training, training, training Weekly schedules Org Charts based on needed roles Master Process Roadmap Documented processes (we use screen capture video as our primary form) Job roles Hiring, Onboarding and Retention Processes Separation Processes Fourth, you will be well served to have a team of professionals around you (all can be engaged by contract or retainer and are worth their weight in gold), whether you sell or not. A Business Coach will be the Bill Belichick you need to keep you locked in and focused on what's next and what's now. A great coach studies, gameplans, encourages, motivates, designs, and holds you accountable to maximize your capacity. Your coach will also help facilitate discussions between you and your team (you know, those tough conversations you don't want to have:), as well as the other contract professionals on your team. A Business Attorney will allow position you to make sure your “i's” are dotted and “t's” crossed with agreements, contracts, wills, trusts, liability (see an Insurance Pro to help), power-of-attorneys, and overall legal plans. A CPA and/or virtual CFO will make sure that you are budgeting, projecting, tracking, monitoring, maximizing profit, paying your taxes, and retaining cash to fund the future. A Valuation Specialist has the skillset to walk into your business and determine how much the business is worth to the market. Again, your goal may not be to actually sell the business, but instead to offer ownership to others who can help you grow. Fifth, you must be willing to grind for a while. The more you build your business to sell, you will actually end up building a business where people thrive. Sure, you can throw a bunch of borrowed cash at a business and flip it, and that is fine if that is what you are into. Our business is our platform to serve people. Mod Pizza's mission is brilliant, “we make pizza so we can serve people.” YES! A business with great vision, mission, values, systems, processes, and professional support will require a heavy volume of fuel for a while. That fuel is your time, care, and expertise. Be cautious about buying into the “scale-quick” mantra. Again, it may work for some, but likely if you are following the Business On Purpose values...we actually like working. When you build a sell-able business, over time you will find that you will likely want to hang on to it and share the wealth! If you want to begin building your Business On Purpose go get my book Let Your Business Burn: Stop Putting Out Fires, Discover Purpose, And Build A Business That Matters. It is a step by step approach to building a business that you could sell...or hang on to. Scott Beebe is the founder of Business On Purpose and the host of The Business On Purpose Podcast.

The Case: Misty was 35 and concerned about fertility Doctors discovered (and operated on) endometriosis leaving her with brain fog and extreme fatigue Medication and more surgery were suggested but she was told that her symptoms were normal The Investigation We Americans tend to trust our medical system despite statistics that show a failing system. We feel lost when a doctor tells us something is fine when we know in our gut it’s not. We don’t speak up when we’re told our symptoms are normal and that we should just get used to living with them. We ignore our instincts because we believe someone who’s been educated must know more about our bodies than we do. Misty’s experience is all too common. She was given few options and dismissed. She was told that because her labs were ‘normal’ she should get used to these symptoms. When more mysterious symptoms showed up and were dismissed (like a 45 lb weight gain) Misty knew that she had to fight for her quality of life. Since then, she’s not only become her own health advocate and solved many of her unexplained health issues, she’s also become a champion for others struggling with a medical system that’s failing them. Misty isn’t just a case in Health Mysteries Solved. She’s also the creator of Healing Rosie a resource website for women who want to get to the bottom of their concerns by becoming a health self-advocate. She’s passionate about helping people stand up for themselves and demand both answers and a quality of life. Misty also facilitates an online community where women can share their stories and knowledge as they navigate their way to better health. Doctors Don’t Have All the Answers While medical doctors do have a great deal of knowledge and play an important role in diagnosing conditions and finding treatments, we can’t assume that they know everything. Anyone wanting to become their own health advocate must get comfortable with questioning their doctor, finding answers elsewhere, and not accepting the doctor’s opinion as final. It’s okay to keep looking even when a doctor says that ‘labs are normal’ or that you have to get used to living with certain symptoms or limitations. Women Normalize Suffering One of the biggest reasons that we fail to get to the bottom of our health issues is that women accept suffering as part of the female condition. Our mothers, other women, and doctors have trained us to believe certain sufferings are ours to bear - especially around menstruation. And, all too often, we put others’ needs before our own. We are culturally programed to take care of our children, our spouses (and sometimes our bosses or employees) before we take care of ourselves. We simply accept that it’s normal to be tired, have brain fog (especially after a certain age), gain weight, be irritable, and deal with chronic pain. We have to stop accepting suffering and start expecting to feel good. Set Health Goals Even as health self-advocates, we need doctors to help us navigate the medical insurance industry. One way that Misty recommends getting doctors on board with your quest for good health is to discuss health goals with your doctor. This makes your requests less about whether your labs are normal or if you should be accepting a certain symptom as unavoidable. Instead, it gives the whole process an outcome that the doctor can get behind. Personalize Your Health Goals Every person is going to have different goals for their health. Misty offers 10 basic health expectations but each individual has to prioritize their own list. Some of her goals include having a regular and pain-free period, maintaining a healthy weight that is under 30% body fat, having energy for your day, getting great sleep, having a healthy libido, and having good digestion. All 10 health goals are discussed in this episode. Find the Right Doctor Sharing your health goals with your doctor is a good way to determine if this is the right doctor for you. If your current doctor is not receptive to assisting you with your health goals, you may want to find a different doctor. This can be a time consuming process so Misty suggests having an initial consult with a potential doctor before going through the process they have for becoming a new patient - which can take months. It Takes a Team What many women fighting for their own good health need to know is that it takes a team of practitioners to get results. Misty suggests having a doctor (who is onboard with your health goals and willing to request labs needed to support them), a functional medicine doctor and a nurse practitioner. Affording Good Health All of this can seem out of reach financially for many people, especially if their insurance is limiting. Misty provides some great tips on how to get as much as possible covered and to do a certain amount of work on your own to decrease out-of-pocket expenses. This includes communicating with your insurance company to gain clarity on how to get certain labs covered. Or, it might be leaving the country for inexpensive procedures like dental care in Mexico. Her community has also proven to be a great resource for people looking to be savvy with their health dollars. Good Resources are Available One of the first steps in becoming a health self-advocate is educating yourself. Misty recommends multiple books for various conditions and suggests that most women will want to heal their gut first and keep an eye on their thyroid. But most importantly, don’t settle for poor health and a compromised quality of life - get to the root of the problem and be your own advocate. Eliminating Health Mysteries Misty was able to really dig in to find the root cause of each issue despite the complicated collection of concerns. She continues to fight for her own quality of life and empowers others to do the same. Could standing up for yourself and becoming your own health advocate be what you need to reclaim your health? Perhaps you know someone else who needs to become their own health advocate? Share this episode with them. Links: Resources mentioned Thanks to my guest Misty Williams.
