Profit Growth Cycles: Navigating the Financial Growing Pains of a Cash Practice In this episode, Doc Danny Matta breaks down the financial growing pains every clinic owner faces when scaling from a small subleased space to a full standalone practice. He explains how to manage cash flow, survive low-profit growth cycles, and make smart reinvestments that turn short-term sacrifice into long-term stability. Quick Ask If this episode helps you think differently about your business finances, share it with a fellow PT who's growing their practice—and tag @dannymattaPT so he can reshare! Let's help more clinicians build profitable, sustainable businesses. Episode Summary Profit growth cycles explained: Every clinic hits a point where growth requires reinvestment—usually when moving from a sublease to your own space. Why cash flow matters: Managing money across three core accounts (Operating, Tax, and Profit) keeps your business stable during transitions. Expect profitability dips: Early growth means more expenses—staff, rent, equipment—so it's normal for profit margins to temporarily shrink. Your business is your best investment: Reinvest in your people, your space, and your systems before chasing outside investments. Live lean and ride it out: Reduce personal spending, protect cash, and build reserves to get through your growth phase faster. Lessons & Takeaways Plan for the punch: Growth hurts less when you know it's coming—prepare your finances like you would prepare for a hit. Separate your money: Use simple account systems to stay disciplined and avoid overspending during expansion. Keep your eyes on the next hire: Profitability improves dramatically after you add your second and third full-time providers. Stay lean, not lavish: Skip the vacations and upgrades during your build-out—this season requires focus and restraint. Don't panic when profits dip: It's a temporary phase, not a failure. Every healthy business goes through it. Mindset & Motivation Short-term pain for long-term success: Scaling up means taking a step back before you can leap forward. Be the investor: Treat your clinic like your best-performing stock—reinvest in what's working and let compounding do the rest. Know your game: Not everyone needs to build a seven-figure empire. Define success, grow strategically, and enjoy the process. Pro Tips for Clinic Owners Track your accounts weekly: Review your Operating, Tax, and Profit accounts to maintain awareness and control. Build 3–6 months of reserves: Cash on hand allows for smarter decisions and less emotional reaction during slow periods. Focus on utilization: Aim to fill two to three full-time providers quickly to stabilize profitability post-growth. Keep learning business fundamentals: Clinical skill alone won't scale a company—you must master marketing, hiring, and leadership. Notable Quotes "Your business is your best investment—stop treating it like a side hustle." "When growth hits, your profit account might hit zero—and that's normal." "Being a great clinician is not enough. You need to be a great business owner, too." Action Items Set up or review your three core accounts: Operating, Tax, and Profit. Map out your next growth cycle and identify upcoming expenses before they hit. Audit your monthly personal spending and cut what's unnecessary for 6–12 months. Calculate how many full-time providers your space can sustain and plan to reach that headcount.

It's Thursday, and we're back with a guest conversation built for leaders who want practical psychology without the fluff. Today: how to feel better, think clearer, and lead smarter with Dr Ryan Martin — The Anger Professor. Guest intro Dr Ryan Martin is a psychologist and emotion researcher known as The Anger Professor. In this conversation he explains why emotions are information, not emergencies, and how small, upstream decisions shape how you feel hours later. His new book lays out 50 research-backed “emotion hacks” that anyone can use at work and at home. Episode summary We start with a classroom exercise that reveals our brains still run ancient threat software. Ryan's Why We Feel model shows how stimuli, mood, interpretation, feeling, and expression combine to create what we experience as emotion. He shares practical in-the-moment tools, then challenges leaders to address root causes: sleep, hydration, nature, worldview, and daily choices. We finish with a manager's checklist for mapping emotional incidents and a simple mantra method for tough moments. Key takeaways Treat emotions as signals. They give you information and energy to act. Most regulation happens upstream. Sleep, hydration, nature, movement, and digital boundaries set your baseline. Worldview matters. Beliefs about people, self, and the future can drive anger, anxiety, or resilience. Use in-the-moment tools wisely. Breathing, grounding, and naming the feeling help you de-escalate and think clearly. Leaders need a map. Diagram the stimulus, mood, interpretation, feeling, and behaviour for yourself and for your team before you act. Practical tools mentioned Grounding: 5 things you can see, 4 you can hear, and so on. Mantras: a short phrase to anchor attention and guide the next step. Nature with attention: unplug and actively notice what you see to reduce rumination. Recognition over suppression: acknowledge the feeling, then choose the response. Worldview audit: do I trust people, see myself as capable, and view the future as hopeful?

Gen Z loves "little treats," the routine of rewarding yourself with smaller, cheaper snacks throughout the day that provide little moments of joy. Nikita Richardson, editor in the Food section of The New York Times, discusses a new article her team has put together, "New York City Loves a Little Treat. Here Are Our 46 Favorites."

When real estate agents struggle, the first thing they do is blame the market: the interest rates, the inventory, the leads. But the truth is, that's not why agents are failing. The truth is simpler and more uncomfortable. Most agents fail because they overcomplicate what actually works. They treat real estate like a hobby, showing up when they feel like it and wondering why their results are unpredictable. They think they are following up and nurturing leads, when all they are doing is notifying people.  What does it take to win in a slow market? How do you align your habits with the success you want?  In this episode, we break down the hard truths about why agents fail, and what separates those who last from those who leave.    Things You'll Learn In This Episode  Overcomplication kills performance Agents often add layers of busywork to justify their commissions. What would happen if you focused only on the actions that directly lead to appointments? Treat it like a business, not a hobby Most agents have no real plan or structure. How does your day change when you start thinking like an entrepreneur instead of an employee? Structure beats hustle Working “24/7” isn't a badge of honor; it's a lack of boundaries. How does consistency in your schedule create both results and freedom? Conversations = closings There's still a direct correlation between the people you talk to and the deals you close. How would your year look if you built your day around that one rule?   About Your Hosts   Greg Harrelson is a real estate agent, coach, trainer, and owner of Century 21 The Harrelson Group.

Ninja Nurse Book: https://amzn.to/42n9Fqz TKF -KFP Blend 1.Leaders 2.Ando Mierzwa 3. Saturday Mental Meals Shurite Troy June 26-28 2026 https://shuritebujutsu.com/seminars%2Fevents Support A Kids Dream https://gofund.me/e745a0e7 Injuries, ailments and bruising are part of being a martial artist. Sore muscles, joint tweaks and broken bones can happen in martial activity with many variables dictating the outcome. We want to identify the most important variables or potential risks. The injury rate in martial arts is similar to other contact sports. In a study, # Comparison of Shotokan Karate Injuries against Injuries in other Martial Arts and Select NCAA Contact Sports By John-David Swanson, Ph.D. Department of Biology and Biomedical Sciences, Salve Regina University, Newport, RI 02840 Martial arts has "myriad physical and mental benefits. Physical benefits include improved balance, meaningful exercise, and the ability to protect oneself against a physical threat [2]. It is also a physical art, with flowing movements that support one's connection to his/her movements." A review of research revealed there is a 1 in 5 chance of being injured in a shotokan tournament and 1 in 4 chance of being injured over the course of time training. The mean percentage of reported injuries thru 10 studies 1. Contusions 47% 2. Epistaxis (nosebleed) 20% 3. Laceration 14% 4. Sprains/strains 3% 5. Concussions 2% some as high as 7% the most injury-prone arts appear to be Jujitsu (97.5%), Aikido (51%), and Kung Fu (38%), followed by Judo, Karate, and Tae Kwon Do which all were at 20-21%. The least injury prone martial art of those studied is Tai Chi (14%). Which I define as the Wellness versions, but may include pushhands and some strengthening work. Over a 16 year NCAA research study, the only collegiate sport that had a higher injury rate than shotokan karate was football witha 36% injury rate. Soccer and ice hockey following respectively. The major risk factors for injury in the Martial Arts are the 1. time spent in training, 2. age of the participant, 3. the experience of the participant. 4. Specifically, it was found that overtraining, and older and inexperienced participants presented the highest risk of injury. As you might imagine, these factors compound, so an older, inexperienced person has a much higher percentage of getting injured. Professor Swanson states, "The single most important factor in preventing injury is the education and experience level of the instructor [14]. This indicates the requirement of having a strong organizational “apprenticeship” or instructor qualification that includes specific instruction in warm up and cool down procedures, injury prevention and the mechanisms of prevention, the ability to determine overtraining, the ability to give appropriate advice to students in the implication of techniques in both execution and results of delivery" Segways to why this is an important book, Ninja Nurse by Peter Jones. The Essential Guide to Injury Management in Martial Arts. It is available on amazon, goodreads and several other locations. Contributing to the validity of this 300 page book is that Peter is a nurse, has over 30 years of multi-martial experiences and deposits volumes of this information into one book. Ninja Nurse is an excellent guide to all aspects of injury prevention or reduction in martial arts. Chapters include health screening, risk assessment, and aspects of the training environment. Also, You Get a deepdive into children and to combat sports. It also includes true stories, useful links, and where to find important forms if you have a school. Peter takes you through a process, how to: 1. Reduce and prevent injury 2. Treat injury 3. Learn from the injury The book emphasizes content for the instructor. Peter walks through potential problem actions such as : 1. Breakfalling 2. Striking and padholding 3. Chokes and strangles As I read through the book, I noted that Peter provides you a good idea of what a legimate martial arts first aid kit might look like. Granted, any is better than none. However, This is particularly useful if you are not sure on how to build your martial arts first aid kit. Then please, make sure that you can use everything that is in it. https://www.nationalcprfoundation.com/courses/standard-first-aid-3/. $12.95 2 years Reality Moment: Indiana Personal Injury Lawsuit Involving Karate Kick Moves Forward. Kicking Held Bags, Johnny the jackass has already been warned twice about trying to crush people, and on third, gets a lady, jump kicks her when she wasn't ready. she injures her knee in the fall that required surgery. She has sued Johnny, and the court has stated, "an individual's actions during a particular exercise or drill in a practice session can be viewed as “within the range of ordinary behavior of participants in the sport” or whether it is dangerous is for a jury to decide." It continues, "Responsible trainers and athletes keep themselves aware of both the risk of injury and the steps to prevent them." My understanding is that the injured lady is only seeking damages from Johnny Jackass and not the martial arts school. My guess would be that they did things as close to right as possible, except for yanking johnny on his second warning. Ninja Nurse is an excellent clinical reference broken into areas, such as: 1. Spinal injury 2. Chest 3. Neck 4. Limbs 5. And smaller join injuries. Peter discusses Mental Health Awareness and there associations to problems in your training hall. Depression, anger, bi-polar students will bring unique concerns that you can reduce with awareness. Peter states, "consider an acute mental health episode like an acute injury." Iain Abernethy said, ""it focuses on how to ensure training partners don't get hurt and how to help them if they do." Jamie Clubb says, "this is as an exhaustive work on the subject as one could hope to find." I would tell you that this book addresses a critical area of any martial arts training center. Its value is well worth more than the cost. Thank you Peter.

Die Zeit der Geister & Dämonen ist wieder angebrochen. Woran man das merkt? Der Nebel hängt dicht über den Feldern, die schwarze Nacht raubt den Tag nun wieder früher, & egal zu welcher Tageszeit man aus dem Fenster schaut, erblickt man das, was Klaas' Jugendfreund Torben einst „Akte-X-Wetter“ nannte. Das alles alleine wäre allerdings nur Indiz für die Vermutung, dass wir uns kalendarisch am Ende des Oktobers befinden. Für einen Beweis braucht es unbedingt noch die Information, dass es bei Schmitt zuhause wieder Orange, Grün & Rot leuchtet, der Rest vom Haus praktisch in einem Cocoon aus Sprüh-Spinnenweben verschwunden ist & neben der Haustür Süßigkeiten in Großmarktportionen bereits liegen. Um wenigstens an Halloween mal etwas in den sozialen Austausch zu geraten, feilt Thomas Jahr für Jahr an der perfekten Installation einer Kinderanlockmaschine, damit er dann bei jedem Besuch der gruseligen Kleinen ein onkeliges Schaudern aufführen kann, das ihm so eine Freude macht. Gerade noch rechtzeitig fiel auch Jakob noch ein, dass letzte Woche Halloween war, denn alleine nur, weil ein abscheuliches Wesen an der Tür klingelt & einem sagt, dass man entweder die Bonbons rausrücken oder man anderenfalls „halt umgebracht“ würde, ist in Berlin nicht unbedingt ein eindeutiger Hinweis darauf, dass es sich um Trick or Treat handelt. Klaas, der zeitgleich nicht im Lande war, sondern in seinem Norddeutschland-Experience-Island „Wangerouge“, welches er vor einigen Jahren in den Emiraten ins Meer schütten ließ, nach dem Rechten schauen musste, blieb dennoch nicht ganz unbetroffen. Per präzise ausgeführtem Hexenschuss war nun auch sein Platz im Gruselkabinett gesichert & die Erkenntnis erlangt, dass nicht alle Krankheiten der Erde mit heißen Handtüchern aus der Mikrowelle zu behandeln sind.

Matt Davies is joined by Mark Sutherns, Michael Temple and former Nottingham Forest B team captain Sam Collins after the Reds drew 0-0 with Sturm Graz in the Europa League. It was far from the night Forest wanted as Morgan Gibbs-White missed a first half penalty and Forest ended the game with four central defenders on the pitch and Nicolo Savona on the right wing after James McAtee and Arnauld Kalimuendo went off with cramp. It wasn't a good night either for John Victor as he got a chance in goal. We'll be live from 8.15pm to discuss the game in full as Forest look for their second win in the competition after beating Porto in their previous game. #nffc #nottinghamforest

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.theflyingfrisby.comI've been writing so much about gold and silver lately, I need to cover something else.But my quick take: as seemed likely, gold and silver have gone into one of their corrective phases. This is likely to last several months, in the humble opinion of this writer. There'll be false dawns, which catch everyone out, and false deaths too, with the overall trend being sideways.In the event of a broader stock market correction - which is long overdue given the scale of this rally since the Tariff Tantrum™ in the spring - gold and, especially, silver will sell off along with everything else. That doesn't mean gold isn't a safe haven. It just means there is a lot of hot money in gold, which quickly gets liquidated in a sell-off.But, yes, this incredible rally we have seen in the S&P500 since the Tariff Tantrum™ is looking exhausted and seems to be rolling over.Bitcoin is taking a hit too - although not as big a hit as the broader crypto space - and bitcoin is what I want to look at today.Here is one crypto trader's desk, as pictured on Twitter during Tuesday's sell-off.That's what happens when you use too much leverage.What do they say about taking the emotion out of trading?Bitcoin - what gives?So many things have happened this year which have blown winds in bitcoin's favour* A newly elected US administration which very pro crypto* A deliberately weaker dollar and the debasement trade* The launch of the bitcoin ETFs in the US increasing access to much larger flows of capital* Strength in tech stocks generally* A risk-on appetite* The halving cycleAnd moreYet bitcoin feels like it hasn't quite delivered. A new high of ‘only' $125,000.The latest narrative doing the rounds is this idea that the launch of the bitcoin ETFs is like bitcoin's IPO. Just as when a big tech stock IPOs, a lot of early seed money takes the opportunity to exit, so are many early bitcoin investors - so-called OGs - now moving on. That would explain the many coins that have been moved from previously dormant wallets to exchanges over the last six months.Maybe.What can I say?You can either decide that bitcoin's time is done. It's game over. Move on.Or you can treat this like another of the numerous shake-outs that have taken bitcoin in the 16 years since its inception. The story was getting a bit tired. It needs a shake-out to ruffle a few feathers and purge.The moral of every previous correction can be summed up in 4 letters: HODL.It looks like we may have got a bit of a crypto winter to get through. If the winter reflects the previous summer, then this one shouldn't be too bad. But consolidation phases can be frustrating, so the secret is to be quite zen about the whole thing and keep your eye on the bigger picture.Bitcoin bear markets can be painful, but the beauty of them is that, unlike mining bear markets which can go on for a decade or more, they tend to be short lived.Treat bear markets as opportunities. They're a good time to build positions, build businesses and more. Go and watch some Michael Saylor videos and re-indoctrinate yourself.But on no account lose your position. Bull markets come along when you least expect them.Everything is looking a bit red at the moment - gold, silver, the S&P500, bitcoin. It might be the end of this cycle. but it's not the end of the world.I don't know when or where this bitcoin correction ends. My guess is around $90,000 but that's nothing more than a guess. Perhaps we revisit $75,000 - which is the level we hit during the Tariff Tantrum™ earlier this year.But it's just as possible that dip below $100k on Tuesday was a fake-out, and the bear market is already done.I thought this graphic was interesting.There is plenty more room for future buying as governments and corporations try to increase their positions.By the way I get that some readers like bitcoin and others don't. That's fine. Each to their own. However, if you are in the latter camp, you do not need to email me and tell me bitcoin is not real money/quantum computing is going to destroy it/it is an invention of the deep state/ it is a scam. Please also feel no need to regurgitate Peter Schiff tweets either. You do know he is paid to slag bitcoin off?Turning now to the clusterfook that is the UKBuying bitcoin ETFs in the UK - t he hows, whats and whysIt's semantics, but you can't actually buy ETFs in the UK you have to buy ETNs. I'm not even going to bother trying to explain it. It's regulatory bollocks and not worth wasting time or brain power over.October 8th, the date when the FCA decided UK citizens are allowed to buy bitcoin ETNs is now behind us, but the farce is not.I first found out about bitcoin in December 2010 when it was 22c. I was sent my first coins soon after. I wrote the first book on bitcoin from a recognised publisher in 2014. Yet this morning I just attempted to complete the FCA's form to get me approved to buy a bitcoin ETN - so that I understand the risks - and I failed it. The “correct” answer to their questions is actually the wrong answer. Absolute farce of an organisation and accountable to no one, so it will continue.In the US, meanwhile, JP Morgan is in the process of enabling bitcoin to be used as mortgage collateral.It's like being in Spain in 1492, the ship is setting sail to the New World and somebody from the FCA is standing on the gangplank with a clipboard stopping UK citizens from getting onboard.Amongst the plethora of moronic barriers which the FCA has laid down is that bitcoin carries the same risk as any other cryptocurrency - including the latest meme, scam or shitcoin. Bitcoin is not fartcoin, and categorising the two together reveals the scary depths of FCA ignorance.Meanwhile, from next year you won't be able to buy bitcoin ETNs in your ISA, you will have to get a special ISA. They are trying to kill us with bureaucracy, I'm convinced of it.Which broker and which ETN?In terms of enabling their customers to invest, the UK brokers have ranged from excellent - Interactive Investor, which went live on day 1, as boss Richard Wilson proudly tells me - to totally useless - Hargreaves Lansdown and AJ Bellend.Hargreaves Lansdown, apparently trying to give the FCA a run for its brainless money, even put out the following statement.“Bitcoin is not an asset class, and we do not think cryptocurrency has characteristics that mean it should be included in portfolios for growth or income and shouldn't be relied upon to help clients meet their financial goals … Unlike other alternative asset classes, it has no intrinsic value.”Talk about retarded.If you want to be able to invest in these things via your SIPP or ISA, move your account to Interactive Investor is my advice. Use this affiliate link and you get a year for free.I should stress buying bitcoin via a broker negates many of bitcoin's uses. Yes, you get the store-of-value benefits, but you can't send and receive it; you can't use it to make payments or donations; you don't have sovereignty - the fund manager does - and so there is considerable counter-party risk - the coins could be confiscated, the fund could go bust etc. You don't have anonymity either.Still it's better than no exposure at all.But which ETN should you go for? And what about the treasury companies? And, what indeed about Semler Scientific (SMLR)?

Renewing a mortgage is more than just re-signing with your existing lender. Today I sit down with Elan Weintraub to discuss everything related to mortgages and renewals. Treat it like a financial checkpoint that aligns with your career, family plans, and cash flow, not just a headline rate. We dig into the real levers you control, and uncover key questions you should ask:Why is a 30 year amortization often a good idea?Considerations for paying down the mortgage fasterWhy every 4% rate isn't the same (interest can compound too)What do I need to know about adjustable vs variable rate mortgages?What are the range of prepayment options?Are tax strategies real or overhyped?What are the pros and cons of mortgage laddering?If you've got a renewal coming up or want to future-proof your financing, this is a concise masterclass on what actually moves the needle. If this helped you, subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a colleague who's staring at a renewal letter right now.Arya EHR: https://www.aryaehr.com/Elan Weintraub:https://www.linkedin.com/in/elan-weintraub-9683702/https://mortgageoutlet.ca/Yatin:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yatin-chadha/Radiology Courses for Clinicians:https://beyondradiology.thinkific.com/courses/ct-head-interpretation-coursehttps://beyondradiology.thinkific.com/courses/master-ct-head-interpretation-courseAmerican express referral link (for all Amex cards):https://americanexpress.com/en-ca/referral/business-platinum?ref=yATINC4uFw&XLINK=MYCP

This week on Live! with Fefe & Freddy, the conversation got real — mixing laughs, tough truths, and reminders about compassion and awareness in today's world.Freddy returned after recovering from a migraine and shared updates from Halloween weekend, including Trunk or Treat fun, movie night, and some big life updates about his upcoming Honeyfund and citizenship process. Fefe recapped her Halloween adventures with the family, trick-or-treating as a “grandpa,” and caught up on the latest South Park episodes — chaos, butt babies, and all.In “Just the Tip,” Freddy took on the topic of Being on Government Assistance, unpacking privilege, judgment, and misconceptions about those who rely on programs like SNAP. He reminded listeners that everyone's circumstances are different — and compassion should come before criticism.Then in “A Closer Look at Current Events,” Fefe broke down the latest election results, government shutdown updates, and the stories making headlines — including Arizona's new ballot measures, national Democratic wins, and the real impact of choices and empathy in everyday life.

Across Nigeria, countless people quietly battle the pain and discomfort of pile a condition many find too embarrassing to discuss. But rather than seeking medical help, most choose to treat it themselves using herbs, ointments, or over-the-counter drugs.Why do Nigerians prefer self-medication to hospital treatment? Is it fear of stigma, the high cost of healthcare, or simply ignorance about the risks involved?In this episode of Nigeria Daily, we dig into the reasons behind this growing trend and hear from health experts about the dangers of self-medicating to treat pile.

Why do some ideas spark movements while others fizzle? Joel—author of The Idea Machine, veteran publisher, and Chief Content Officer at Full Focus—explains how books transform vague thoughts into precise, shareable frameworks. You'll hear the case for analog reading, how writing unlocks buy-in at work, and why AI and books actually belong together. Practical, contrarian, and deeply encouraging for any high achiever who wants clearer thinking and better communication.Memorable Quotes“Ideas that start in the mind of an author as just kind of a gooey, fuzzy idea. And in the course of writing, it forces them to get clear on it. It forces them to get specific about it and develop it in a way that actually becomes useful.”“Not only can these ideas live in a way that we can understand them, but they can live through time. And that's one of the greatest things about a book—that it perpetuates ideas across time.”“It forces you to get clear. It forces you to develop an argument. It forces you to develop a line of thought that other people can follow. And without that, you're kind of left with a grab bag of ideas that are probably cool. They're great, but they're not in a system that can be used or explained or anything like that.”“I think this is true for leaders. They have a lot of personal charisma and people want to follow them, but that's not enough. You really do have to go to the discipline of getting these ideas clear for yourself so that they can be clear to other people.”“Part of what we've done is we've just de-skilled ourselves in reading and we just need to re-skill ourselves in reading.”“Never read a book 'cause you're supposed to. Read books because they delight. You read books because they're entertaining to you. Read books because you get something out of it that you really like.”Key TakeawaysBooks Are Tech. Treat books as an information technology that lets ideas scale with precision and longevity.Writing Creates Clarity. If you want buy-in, don't rely on vibes—write the memo. Make your idea explicit and specific.Right Format, Right Job. Use audio/ebook for breadth and speed. Reach for print when you need depth, notes, and recall.AI Is a Companion. From library science to today's models, AI extends the book's mission—use it to augment (not replace) critical thinking.Build a Daily Reading Habit. Aim for 30–60 minutes a day (top and bottom of day works). Follow your curiosity. Quit the books that don't serve you.ResourcesThe Idea Machine by Joel J.

tiun is building auth and payment infrastructure that consolidates two traditional categories into one streamlined solution. By combining social login with instant payment functionality, tiun eliminates the standard account creation and credit card entry flow, reducing user onboarding to a two-click process. Operating as merchant of record, tiun serves online entertainment businesses, content creators, news publishers, and SaaS platforms. The company currently reaches 10 million users monthly through customer website placements and is growing transactions 15-20% month-over-month. In this episode of Category Visionaries, Sandro Zweig shares how tiun evolved from targeting news publishers to building a broader entertainment ecosystem, the challenges of creating a market for a combined category, and the data-driven approach to proving ROI before scaling. Topics Discussed: Evolution from news publisher focus to entertainment and SaaS ecosystem strategy Consolidating auth and payment infrastructure into a single category Case study metrics: 20% uplift in paying users with under 1% subscription cannibalization The 2.5x lead generation improvement versus traditional subscription models Building market-specific ecosystems as a B2B2C go-to-market strategy DACH penetration strategy before US expansion Achieving organic exposure through customer website placement Reducing integration complexity to drive adoption in an emerging category GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Geographic density creates B2B2C flywheels: tiun's go-to-market prioritizes ecosystem density within a single market over broad geographic distribution. Users discover tiun on one platform, then encounter it across 3-4 additional properties in their consumption pattern, creating recognition and repeat usage. This required penetrating DACH (100 million people, single language, unified regulations) before considering US expansion. For B2B2C products where end-user familiarity drives business adoption, concentrate on saturating one market until the consumer-side network effect reduces enterprise sales friction. Validate with 6-12 month pilot data before scaling: tiun ran contained pilots with 3-4 customers for a full year before pursuing their long-tail market. This produced case studies showing 20% paying user uplift and under 1% cannibalization—metrics that directly addressed the primary objection (subscription revenue risk). Sandro notes this extended validation period became essential because "there is no market for it yet. We're creating the market." When creating a new category, resist scaling pressure until you have multi-month data that quantifies business outcomes and neutralizes the biggest adoption barriers. Strategic revenue trade-offs accelerate ecosystem development: tiun deliberately adjusted pricing to "pay out more to our businesses to grow a bit faster"—prioritizing transaction volume and ecosystem density over near-term take rate. This economics decision reflected that their value proposition strengthens with ecosystem scale: users need to encounter tiun across multiple properties for the solution to deliver its full promise. When building network effects or marketplace dynamics, model whether lower monetization drives the velocity needed to reach critical mass faster than optimizing for immediate margins. Integration speed directly determines category creation velocity: Sandro identified that "if the sales cycle is too long and integration is too complicated, people won't do it. Especially since it's a product that doesn't exist and there is no market for it yet." They focused on reducing implementation to 2-3 weeks, recognizing that asking companies to replace existing auth and payment infrastructure requires minimal switching costs. For emerging categories where customers must displace incumbent solutions, integration complexity often determines adoption more than feature superiority. Build investor relationships 12+ months before raises: Sandro emphasizes starting fundraising conversations well before needing capital: "If you decide, oh, I need to fundraise right now, then you will automatically get into a cash crunch. Because by the time you have established all the relationships, it just takes such a long time that you run out of money where it really hurts your negotiation power." Treat investor relationship development as continuous rather than transactional—similar to enterprise pipeline development where deals close from relationships built quarters earlier. //   Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

This week, I sat down in person (yes, we went old school) with the brilliant Jakob Gowin, General Manager of the Meliá White House in London - and what a conversation this turned out to be.From washing dishes at 13 to running a 581 bedroom hotel and 112 long-stay apartments (with residents who've lived there for 30+ years!), Jakob's journey is packed with graft, heart, humility, and more than a few cracking stories - including the fact we recorded this episode in “The White House”. Sadly, neither of us bumped into the President… but we did fix some of the worlds problemsJakob brings a refreshing, human first take on hospitality and leadership, rooted in care, curiosity, resilience and a healthy dose of humour. This episode is full of golden nuggets for anyone in the industry, regardless of where you sit on the org chart.In this episode, Jakob and I get into…His spur of the moment entry into hospitality at age 13 (thanks to his brother bunking a shift)How a single 30 second conversation changed the entire course of his careerThe incredible history of the Meliá White House - from art deco elegance to WWII navigation point to Soviet spy HQBalancing hospitality at scale with genuine personalisation (including when “positive stalking” is actually a great thing)Why unsung hero actions matter just as much as the big “hero moments”The responsibility leaders have around their first responseWhy communication isn't a “soft skill” - it's the skillThe power of empathy, integrity and a well timed bit of humour in leadershipAI in hotels: not a gimmick, not a cost-cutting exercise - a chance to give humans more time to be… well… humanSome cracking quote-ables from Jakob“A bad manager is sometimes easier to learn from than a good one.”“If that doesn't bring a smile to your face as someone in hospitality… you're in the wrong trade.”“People will forgive an awful lot if they're communicated to properly.”“You can't deliver hospitality if you're not feeling right. It's hard to paint on a smile forever.”“Treat people how they want to be treated - not how you want to be treated.”Why this episode is worth your earsIf you work in hospitality, lead people, want to lead people, or just need a little reminder of what true hospitality looks like, this one's for you.Jakob is the kind of leader who proves that kindness and high performance are not only compatible - they fuel each other.

This week we welcome London-based interior designer Nicola Harding to the show to discuss her latest book "Homing Instinct." Nicola—whose work spans boutique hotels, restaurants, and royalty—shares her unconventional path into design, the influence of garden design on her interiors, and her human-led approach to layouts, color, and pattern. Listen to discover Nicola's strategy for finding a home's "spirit" by listening to people and place; she also recounts a church-to-restaurant conversion, a vivid Italian project rich in terracottas and dusty reds, and the practical origins of her furniture and homewares line, all underscored by a commitment to craftsmanship and locally made materials. Key Takeaways: Prioritize how people live: start with layout and create human-scaled “places” (cozy corners, pools of light) before decorating. Use color boldly and early—paint is a low-cost, high-impact tool; layer similar tones for depth and mood. Treat stripes/checks and scaled repeats as neutral texture; mix scales and tonal variants for harmony. Favor natural pigments, vintage fabrics, and local craftsmanship; design furniture to solve real project needs.

Looking for daily inspiration?  Get a quote from the top leaders in the industry in your inbox every morning.   Every year, millions of attraction visitors lose hours in line instead of making memories. Since its inception, accesso's virtual queuing has saved more than 4.5 billion minutes of wait time, freeing guests to pack their day with more rides, eats, and excitement. The result? Happier guests who spend more and a better bottom line for you. Ready to turn waits into wins? Visit accesso.com/ROIClinic. The queues are virtual. The results are real. Phil Royle is the Vice President of LEGOLAND Development and Operations at Merlin Entertainments. With nearly 25 years at Merlin, he's grown from a 17-year-old ride operator at Chessington World of Adventures to opening Madame Tussauds Hollywood, leading guest experience at LEGOLAND Florida, and spearheading the development and launches of new LEGOLAND parks in New York, South Korea, and Shanghai. His career spans operations, development, community engagement, and global brand stewardship across 11 parks, multiple water parks, and themed hotels. In this interview, Phil Royle talks about being brick-centric, fantastical escapism, and teaching everything you can. Brick-centric “We have to make sure that everything we do centers around the brick. The brick is absolutely a core part of everything we do.” Phil explains that the LEGO brick is not just theming—it's the operating system for the entire resort experience. Because LEGOLAND serves families with children ages two to twelve, attractions are intentionally designed as “pink-knuckle” firsts: first coaster rides, first driving school licenses, and first hands-on build zones. Accessibility and inclusion are embedded, from wheelchair access to widespread Certified Autism Center credentials across parks, aligning day-to-day operations with the brand's “only the best is good enough” ethos. He describes a tight collaboration with the LEGO toy company, aligning new lands and attractions to upcoming toy lines so the parks bring IP like Monkey Kid to life in rides, hotels, and interactive spaces. Even hotel rooms extend the brick-first philosophy: families wake up inside immersive, character-rich environments and can step straight into building play, ensuring the brick is literally the first and last touchpoint of the day. Fantastical escapism “We want that fantastical escape to just say, ‘wow, I woke up at LEGOLAND.'” Phil explains that escapism is a design and operational mandate for both kids and parents. While queues and coasters provide the familiar structure of a theme park day, discovery and agency come from integrated build-and-play moments, such play areas inside queues, free-build buckets, guided vehicle-building challenges, and earthquake tables that turn trial-and-error into laughter and learning. Guests think they're just racing cars or stacking towers; in reality, they're encountering physics, structural engineering, and cause-and-effect through tangible, joyful play. He emphasizes that parents are part of the magic. Attractions and play spaces are planned so adults can ride, build, and celebrate alongside their kids, or comfortably supervise from thoughtfully designed lounges with clear sightlines (single-entry/exit play areas). Dining, shows, seasonal characters, and event overlays (from Brick or Treat through the holidays) complete a rhythm that lets families “forget the big wide world” for a day and live inside a story built from bricks and imagination. Teaching everything you can “You can only move on if you teach your team absolutely everything you can so that they can be successful on their own.” Phil frames leadership mobility and park scalability as outcomes of radical knowledge transfer. Opening multiple parks across continents required documenting processes, building successor capability, and ensuring local teams could operate confidently after handover. When knowledge is hoarded, questions bottleneck at the last team; when it's centralized and shared, the next parks in the pipeline (Shanghai, Shenzhen, and beyond) can accelerate with fewer blockers. He also extends teaching beyond internal teams to partners, media, and communities, using proactive education to align global safety standards with local norms (as in South Korea), and cultivating networks where safety transcends competition. For Phil, mentoring, documentation, and cross-park/intake relationships are the real engines that let leaders “move on to the next project” without leaving gaps behind.   To connect with Phil directly, he recommends reaching out on LinkedIn. To learn more about the company and what's new at the parks, visit the LEGOLAND website (including information on seasonal events and upcoming coasters and lands in California and Florida).   This podcast wouldn't be possible without the incredible work of our faaaaaantastic team:   Scheduling and correspondence by Kristen Karaliunas   To connect with AttractionPros: AttractionPros.com AttractionPros@gmail.com AttractionPros on Facebook AttractionPros on LinkedIn AttractionPros on Instagram AttractionPros on Twitter (X)

Here's a polished podcast blurb suitable for LinkedIn, BlueSky, or Apple Podcasts listings — written in the JIMD Podcast tone and style: ⸻ It's one of the most talked-about breakthroughs of 2025, a first-in-human demonstration of in vivo gene editing to treat an inherited metabolic disease. In this episode, Kiran Musunuru and Rebecca Ahrens-Nicklas are joined by Julien Baruteau to unpack what this means for the field. They explore the science behind gene editing, the importance of ethical design, and the emotional weight of stopping therapy once enzyme function is restored. The conversation bridges the NEJM landmark paper (Musunuru et al., 2025) and the accompanying JIMD editorial (Rahman & Baruteau, 2025), reflecting on what this moment tells us about the future of metabolic medicine and how ready we are for it.

My guest is Dr. David Fajgenbaum, MD, professor of translational medicine and human genetics at the University of Pennsylvania. He explains how, unbeknownst to most doctors, many approved medications can successfully treat or even cure diseases other than the ones they are typically used to treat. He shares his story of escaping death from Castleman's disease by discovering a life-saving treatment using repurposed drugs that were approved for other purposes. Our conversation explores how researchers, physicians, and you—the general public—can explore novel treatments and cures to conditions the medical profession has deemed untreatable, including cancers. We also discuss the crucial role of mindset in battling diseases and the lesser-known use of compounds to promote health and longevity. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.

This week's conversation, “Day of the Trick,” invites us to explore how deception, ritual, and resistance intertwine. We'll look at how Trick-or-Treat traditions of Halloween can be contrasted with rituals of generosity and remembrance in Ways of Knowing such as the Day of the Dead. How does manipulation, coercion, and transactional power threaten the work of mutual care? How does resistance reveal the weakness of deception itself? We'll also consider deeper questions: What is the role of sacrifice in reshaping state power? How can Cultural Meaning-Making help us imagine a better society? And how can recovering momentum through studying Movement and Memory help us draw strength from past generations in order to work toward more a better world today?”JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Jim Carroll, senior wealth advisor and portfolio manager at Ballast Rock Private Wealth — known as the "Vixologist" on X — says that the Trump Administration is living up to the idea that it can "Make Volatility Great Again," as seen by record stock markets, but notes that the actions have raised uncertainty and made investors nervous. He says the stock market and economy are still "fussing around" with tariffs and other geo-political risks that could send the market for a loop, and says investors should be protecting themselves against a correction, though he notes that movement could be a steep decline in prices or a long period of sideways. David Trainer, president of New Constructs puts another electric-vehicle maker in the Danger Zone, noting that while he dislikes a lot of the metrics for the industry, this company has been a stinker before and is poised to crater again, even as it has rebounded from huge past losses to gain more than 66 percent this year. Charlie Bobrinskoy, vice chairman and head of investment group at Ariel Investments — manager of the Ariel Focus Fund — brings his focused value investing style to the Market Call.  Plus, Chuck discusses the results of his annual Halloween "Cash or Candy, Trade or Treat" experience with the kids, where he gave away two big jackpots and a lot of candy, but double-disappointed a few of the trick-or-treaters.
