Today's guest is William Morgan, the co-founder of Restless Egg, a London-based incubator and accelerator designed specifically for a new class of “artist-founders” whose work synthesizes art, technology, and commercial product design.His thesis: The tech sector's obsession with optimization can't help us discover the genuinely novel forms of human experience that this intelligent substrate makes possible. If we want something truly better, we need to cultivate the taste and discernment to know which futures are worth living in — and radically expand our imagination regarding what human-machine relationships can actually look like.✨ Become a founding member to access my online courses, including Jurassic Worlding and How To Live In The Future✨ Browse and buy the books we mention on the show at Bookshop.org✨ Stream and download my music at artist-owned (!)

What if the future of chiropractic growth has less to do with hiring more people and more to do with freeing the right people to fully serve? Dr. Pete Camiolo and Dr. Eric Kowalke, Founder and CEO of SKED, unpack how AI, automation, and operational systems are reshaping the modern chiropractic office without sacrificing the human connection that makes chiropractic powerful.

Everyone tells you to work on your business instead of in it. Nobody hands you the agenda for what that time is actually supposed to look like. In this episode, I walk you through the exact 90-minute midyear CEO session I have run on my own business every year for 11 years. This is a step-by-step financial review for small business owners who want to check in on their numbers before the second half of the year. I cover how the session changes depending on your financial stage, what to review on your profit and loss statement and balance sheet, how to check your tax reserve against what you have actually paid, and how to reforecast your budget for the next six months. Whether your books need a cleanup or you are casting a 10-year vision, this episode gives you the full agenda. In this episode of CEO Numbers Network, I break the session down by financial stage: foundation, empowered, and visionary. You will learn how to review your P&L and balance sheet like a CFO, how to check your payroll, owner pay, contractor W-9s, and tax reserve, and how to reforecast the back half of the year against your long-term goals. If you have ever blocked time to work on your business and ended up answering emails instead, this episode gives you the exact agenda to make those 90 minutes count.  

What kind of leader is your pet care business creating you to become? In this episode, we talk through five common leadership styles: the visionary, the operator, the servant leader, the coach, and the commander. We explore how each style shows up for solo sitters, team owners, clients, and employees. We also look at the strengths, weaknesses, and blind spots that come with each approach. As our businesses grow, we have to ask whether the style that helped us start is still the style we need moving forward. Main topics: Leading yourself first Visionary leadership strengths Systems versus people Boundaries and burnout Adapting leadership styles Main takeaway: "The challenge is that most business owners continue using the same leadership style that helped them start the business, even when the business now needs something different." That line's hard to hear, because what helped us survive the early days may not be enough to sustain the next stage. As a solo sitter, our leadership might look like discipline, boundaries, and client communication. As our business grows, leadership starts to include culture, accountability, delegation, and developing other people. The goal is not to label one style as good or bad, but to understand our strengths and our blind spots. Our business may need a different version of our leadership than it did a year ago.

Allison Maslan's transformation began beneath a rolling car that nearly took her life—a moment that forced her to confront an uncomfortable truth: the behaviors that built her initial success had become the mechanisms of her own destruction. Working eighty-hour weeks, managing every client relationship personally, and unable to delegate, she was the bottleneck preventing her own business from scaling. This crisis sparked a systematic study of how truly successful companies operate, revealing that visionary leaders don't deliver services themselves; they architect systems and teams that function without them. Over the following decades, she built nine additional companies across nine different industries, each becoming a laboratory for refining her understanding of genuine scaling. The pattern was clear: across all industries and business models, the scaling challenge remains fundamentally the same—founders must replace themselves in the business, not clone themselves. This insight became the foundation of her life's work. Allison's twenty-five-year practice as a professional trapeze artist has taught her profound lessons about leadership that most business schools never address—the importance of trust in moments of free fall, the necessity of commitment before taking action, and how to acknowledge fear while refusing to be controlled by it. These lessons translate directly to business, where founders must let go of direct control and trust their teams to catch them. Beyond her business acumen, she embodies the "whole leader" philosophy she teaches, having intentionally designed her life to include time in Mexico, travel with her husband of twenty years, and the freedom to write books while scaling her company. She demonstrates that scaling a business isn't about sacrificing your life on the altar of hustle; it's about building systems that allow you to have both impact and joy, significance and freedom. Allison Maslan's Pinnacle Global Network offers a proven pathway forward. The organization brings together a community of seven and nine-figure CEOs with forty mentors who have each built multimillion-dollar companies and navigated successful exits.

In this episode of Sales & Cigars, Walter Crosby sits down with Matt Haney, fractional COO and integrator, to talk about accountability, visionary entrepreneurs, and what really keeps businesses from scaling. Matt works with founders who have built strong companies but have reached the point where they need help turning vision into execution. The conversation digs into the tension between visionaries and operators, why accountability often breaks down, and how leaders can create clearer expectations without slipping into micromanagement. Matt also explains why many business problems are really people problems—and why having a trusted right hand can help founders get out of seats they should no longer be sitting in. If you are a visionary leader trying to scale, this episode is worth your time.   Episode Highlights Why founders often struggle to move from doing to leading How accountability breaks down when expectations are unclear Why working sessions can become necessary when execution stalls The danger of visionaries staying one or two levels too deep in the business How sales leaders can work better with founder-led organizations Why trust between a visionary and sales leader is critical The role of a fractional COO as operator, advisor, and accountability partner Why third-party perspective can help resolve leadership tension How to identify when your business needs a trusted right hand   Key Themes & Takeaways Accountability starts with clear expectations. People cannot execute against vague direction. Leaders must define what success looks like. Visionaries often need help getting out of the way. Founders built the business by doing everything, but scaling requires them to release control in the right places. Execution problems are often people problems. Missed targets, stalled growth, and lack of follow-through usually connect back to communication, clarity, or accountability. Trust must be intentionally built. When founders bring in sales leaders or operators, information flow and role clarity are essential. A strong right hand creates leverage. The right operator helps translate vision into action, hold people accountable, and reduce chaos inside the business. Outside perspective can reduce friction. Sometimes a neutral third party helps leaders hear each other more clearly and move through tension faster.   Who Should Listen This episode is especially valuable for: Visionary entrepreneurs who feel stuck in the weeds Founders looking for a trusted right hand or integrator Sales leaders working inside founder-led businesses CEOs struggling with accountability across the team Service-based businesses trying to scale operations Leaders who know the company needs structure but are unsure where to start   Links & Resources Sinclair Ventures https://sinclairventures.com Matt Haney matt@sinclairventures.com Matt Haney on LinkedIn   Continue the Conversation If this episode made you think differently about accountability, leadership, or how to build a business that can scale without everything running through you, join the Sales Integrator Community.

In this episode of Better Business, Better Life, Debra Chantry-Taylor & Adam Harris explore why Visionaries can become bottlenecks, and what leaders can do to break free from the behaviours that hold their businesses back. Drawing on their experience as EOS® Implementers, Debra & Adam unpack the powerful relationship between Visionary & Integrator leadership styles, including why clarity, trust, self-awareness & healthy conflict are essential for long-term business growth. They discuss one of the most common challenges entrepreneurs face: letting go. Many Visionaries know they need to step back from day-to-day operations, but fear, control, past experiences or a love of chaos can keep them involved in areas where they no longer add the most value. The conversation explores why Visionaries need a strong sounding board, how the “golden penny” problem pulls leaders away from priorities, and why a clear vision is very different from simply having lots of ideas. Listeners will also gain practical insights into strengthening Visionary & Integrator partnerships, improving leadership alignment, and creating a business that can grow without being dependent on one person.

When did you last imagine the future? Not predict it. Not react to someone else's version of it. But truly, boldly imagine what could be possible?AI is exceptional at giving you data, analysis and execution. But it cannot dream. It cannot vision. It cannot look beyond what already exists and imagine what might be. That is uniquely, powerfully yours. And in the age of AI, it is about to become the most valuable skill in the room.In this final episode of their Six Skills for 2026 series, Phil and Pen explore the skill they believe will define the leaders, teams and businesses of the next decade: being Visionary. They break it down into three powerful pillars: Imagining, Planning and Communicating, and why developing all three is no longer optional for anyone who wants to shape the future rather than simply react to it.From the extraordinary story of Victorian engineer Joseph Bazalgette, who doubled the size of London's sewage tunnels based not on data but on bold imagination, saving the city from catastrophe generations later, to the neuroscience of why scrolling through social media is quite literally shutting down your creative and visionary thinking, this episode is packed with science, stories and practical tools that will change how you think, lead and communicate from today.And here is a stat worth sitting with: 85% of CEOs say vision is the single most critical skill they need in their leaders. Yet 40% of employees have no idea how their role connects to the vision of their organisation. The gap between where we are and where we need to be has never been greater, or more exciting.In this episode you'll discover:Why being visionary is the most AI proof skill you have and how to start owning itHow your smartphone habit is closing down your imagination and what to do about itThe three pillars of visionary leadership: Imagining, Planning and Communicating with passionPractical, daily tools to unlock your visionary thinking, from the weekly vision window to the backwards diaryBy the end of this episode, we want you to ask yourself one question: If the future is coming whether you imagine it or not, what would you build if you started from scratch today?

Calling someone an “animal” means they're less than human – not worthy of respect, rights, or even of life itself. But in truth — and in biological fact — human beings ARE animals. Scientists continue to find that intelligence and what we call “consciousness” appear to saturate all of nature. Clearly it's high time to think differently about just what it means to be an animal. Can we know what it's like to be other-than-human? How can we see into the minds of animals? Visionary naturalist, author and conservationist Carl Safina says that the first step is paying attention and observing. And, he suggests, if we had humility, we'd have everything.

Joining host Michael Azevedo on this episode are Paul Wagner and Ellen Casey Wagner, the filmmaking team behind “Georgia O'Keeffe: The Brightness of Light," a feature length documentary that is now available on all VOD streaming services.   Narrated by Hugh Dancy and featuring Claire Danes as the voice of Georgia O'Keeffe, "The Brightness of Light" illuminates the extraordinary life and lasting influence of an artist who reshaped the American art landscape. From her formative years in the Midwest to her groundbreaking rise in New York's modernist movement, and finally to the vast, sun-drenched solitude of the New Mexico desert, the film traces O'Keeffe's remarkable creative journey. Blending letters, archival imagery, and the artist's own words, Academy Award-winning director Paul Wagner paints a vivid portrait of a woman whose bold interpretations of nature and fearless independence blurred the boundaries between abstraction and realism.    "Georgia O'Keeffe: The Brightness of Light" is a meditative and visually stunning exploration of art, love, and the search for creative freedom.    Making Media Now is sponsored by Filmmakers Collaborative, a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting media makers from across the creative spectrum.

If you want to get ahead in your business, it's time to stop being the technician and start stepping into the manager, and visionary roles. Our host, Diane Rolston, references one of the most important business books she's ever read E-Myth Revisited. She explains something so many business owners experience but don't have the language for and why most women are stuck over-functioning in exactly the wrong role.Listen to learn these key takeaways:Why going out on your own means you didn't just become the technician. You became every other role in the company too, whether you wanted to or notThe three key roles from E-Myth Revisited: what each one is responsible for and the critical question each role is constantly askingWhy most entrepreneurs skip one of these three roles completely and why that's exactly why things feel chaoticThe dangerous comfort zone most women over-function in: why it feels productive but is quietly keeping the business stuckWhat happens when your head is down doing the work all day and the two perspectives you completely lose access toWhy the manager and visionary roles keep getting neglected and what the real cost of that neglect is to your businessWhere a Virtual Assistant fits into all three roles: not just taking tasks off your plate, but actually strengthening a specific role you've been neglectingHow support becomes truly transformational when it frees you to operate as the visionary and when businesses actually start to scaleThe honest reminder: the goal isn't to stop being the technician entirely (you're good at it for a reason)One final question to ask yourself right now about which role actually needs more of your attention firstComing up next: why smart, capable women struggle so much to delegate in the first place and why it's almost never about skill.Free resources to get started with your own virtual assistant: "Top 10 Questions to Ask a VA Company When You Want to Hire a VA" by Diane Rolston: https://app.groove.cm/groovemember/download/xylsp51fbe3b909e70d43d635f85fa3f115b5229 Tasks You Can Delegate: https://keap.page/mw315/229-tasks-you-can-delegate1.html5 Problems in Delegating: https://bit.ly/5ProblemsofDelegatingYour Virtual Assistant Readiness Scorecard: https://www.dianerolston.com/blog/still-doing-it-all-yourself-your-virtual-assistant-readiness-scorecardBook a time to chat with Diane directly to get your own vetted Dynamic VA: https://www.dianerolston.com/booking.htmlWant to be invited to join Diane's NEW high-level, like-minded group of women?

#932 What if the biggest thing holding entrepreneurs back online isn't strategy — but the fear of being seen?

Through curated high-caliber connection, strategic scaling Think Tank Circles aligned to revenue stage, and high-caliber collaborations that builds credibility, sharpens strategy, and accelerates results. The Dames helps high-performing women right-size their businesses, amplify their impact, and do it all with radical collaboration, joy, and zero burnout. Because success isn't about being in all the rooms — it's about going deep in the right rooms. And for the women we serve, that room is The Dames.   Socials: https://www.linkedin.com/in/meghannconter/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/18630915 https://www.instagram.com/thedamesco https://www.instagram.com/meghannconter https://www.facebook.com/thedamesco   Episode Summary:   In this episode, host Lyndsay Dowd sits down with Meghann Conter, CEO and Visionary of The Dames — the only global business accelerator connecting women at the top of six, seven, and eight-figure businesses. Meghann shares how she went from running a marketing agency and hustling five nights a week just to fill her pipeline, to building a thriving peer community rooted in radical collaboration, intentional growth, and joy.   Meghann challenges the outdated hustle-and-grind model that was built by men, for men, and makes the case for a new paradigm of business — one where women define success on their own terms, scale at their own pace, and win together instead of competing. She introduces The Dames' core philosophy: move beyond referrals and networking to become true "power partners" and "golden geese" for one another.   Key Takeaways:   - Being in all the rooms costs you everything - Pick one or two rooms — and go deep - Right scaling beats just scaling - Stop chasing golden eggs; find your golden geese - Women were conditioned to compete. It's time to unlearn that - Your nervous system matters more than your revenue number - Your "why" needs to come from within   Episode Chapters:   00:00 Cold Open — The Cost of Being in All the Rooms 00:28 What You'll Learn Today (3 Key Promises) 00:46 Welcome to Heartbeat for Hire 01:01 Introducing Meghann Conter & The Dames 01:58 Meghann's Story — From Marketing Agency to Global Accelerator 03:50 Why 2020 Was a Turning Point for The Dames0 5:00 The Problem with "I Have to Be Everywhere" 05:55 The Real Cost of Showing Up in All the Rooms 07:03 Why Spreading Yourself Thin Is the Worst Strategy 08:50 How The Dames Structures Community (Just 2–3 Hours/Month) 09:57 The Business Milestones: $100K, $250K, $500K, Seven & Eight Figures 12:07 Radical Collaboration — What It Is & Why It's Your Unfair Advantage 13:33 Golden Eggs vs. Golden Geese: A New Way to See Your Network 14:11 Power Partners - Referral Partners 15:52 Stop Seeing Other Women as Competitors 16:33 Right Scaling vs. Wrong Scaling 17:09 Redefining Success on Your Own Terms  19:04 Nervous System Regulation & Profits Over Revenue Vanity 20:47 Listener Shoutout & Podcast Awards 21:24 What's Inspiring Meghann Right Now 21:38 Meghann's Legacy: More Women Looking Inward 23:37 Where to Find Meghann & The Dames 24:02 What's Next — Funference (October 7–10, Denver) 24:31 How to Join The Dames 25:24 Closing Thoughts

You need a Vision-led week. This episode will help you stop treating your visionary work like an optional hobby, and start treating it like a Lantern that deserves space, boundaries, and devotion.

Christina Gutierrez is a co-owner and fractional CFO at Simple CFO, a firm she helped build over nearly seven years alongside founder David Richter. Her background spans temp agency work across multiple industries, commercial real estate operations, a master's degree, and hands-on experience managing entire portfolios before she ever set foot in a CFO role. In this episode, David flips the script and interviews Christina directly — covering her path into fractional CFO work, the client relationships she's built, and the business partnership she and David formalized roughly 18 months ago. If you've ever wondered what a real CFO does beyond the numbers, or if you're a business owner stuck in the cycle of doing more deals but feeling broker, this conversation is for you.Timeline Highlights[0:00] Episode intro for the Simple CFO Case Files series on the Profit First for Real Estate Investors podcast[0:23] David introduces Christina and explains why he's flipping the script to interview his own co-owner and business partner[1:27] David talks about the Simple CFO partnership, now 18 months in, and calls it the best business decision he's ever made[2:33] David previews the episode: Christina's background, client wins, and the partnership dynamic[3:29] Christina traces her origin story — from seventh-grade accounting class and the math club to years of intentional temp work to absorb systems across industries[5:17] How property management in Charleston and working for a commercial real estate investor shaped Christina's understanding of real estate operations[7:07] How Christina transitioned from managing a real estate mogul's company to launching her own CFO firm, combining book education with real-world experience[9:57] Christina walks through her work with client John and his partner Alex — four years of Profit First implementation, deal cost analysis, and personnel performance reviews[12:27] The pattern most business owners miss: revenue looks strong at $2M–$5M, but without someone watching the trends, profitable months quietly drift toward break-even[16:13] The most common money lie in real estate investing — believing more deals will fix a cash problem — and why it never does without the right financial management[18:37] Joe Terrio's story: Christina helped him buy out a business partner, set up a Profit First account to fund the buyout, and just watched him make his final payment four and a half years later[20:15] The mental tug-of-war business owners face when they want to step back but fear losing their grip — and how CFO accountability helps navigate that[25:52] How the partnership conversation actually started: Christina's honest answer that she didn't want to do it at first[32:31] What every business partner must do before signing anything: written agreements, defined roles, and an operating system like EOS from the book Traction[40:47] Closing insight: why even business owners with accounting degrees hire a CFO, and why the right move is finding the right people rather than doing everything yourselfKey TakeawaysThe "more deals" lie is one of the most dangerous cycles in real estate. When revenue looks good on the surface, most owners don't notice the slow decline until they're breaking even. A CFO watches those trends before they become a crisis.Budget-to-actual analysis is only useful if you do something with it. Plenty of business owners track their numbers but never close the loop on why they went over or under. The follow-through is where the real work happens.A CFO's job is to identify which of your five problems actually matters most. You can't fix everything at once. The right question is: which issue, if resolved, gets you closest to your goals right now?Before entering a business partnership, talk through the hard stuff — in writing. Defined roles, buyout terms, what happens if someone wants out. Core values alignment and a structured operating system like EOS aren't optional extras; they're the foundation.You shouldn't be doing your own financials if you're running a business. Even if you have the skills, your highest-value use is running the company. The Who Not How principle applies directly here: find the right people and let them do what they do best.Visionary leaders need logical counterparts. Emotional decision-making drives deals and growth, but without someone asking "does this actually get us closer to the goal," you'll keep building on a shaky foundation.Links & ResourcesSimple CFO — simplecfo.comProfit First for Real Estate Investors — profitrei.com (free financial discovery call)Traction by Gino Wickman (EOS — Entrepreneurial Operating System)Who Not How by Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin HardyClosingIf this episode resonated with you — especially the part about watching revenue slowly drift toward break-even without anyone catching it — share it with a business owner you know who's been telling themselves the next deal will fix everything.

Send us Fan MailIn this solo episode of Spartan Leadership, Josh Kosnick tackles a problem that's quietly wrecking our society, our homes, and our boardrooms: the inability to hold two truths at the same time. From Memorial Day to the boardroom to your marriage, he breaks down how binary thinking masquerades as conviction while quietly destroying wisdom, trust, and culture.You'll hear why being “for” or “against” everything isn't strength, it's rigidity — and how real leaders learn to sit in tension, honor complexity, and still make clear decisions. Josh then walks through six practical disciplines you can start using this week to build the muscle of holding two truths without folding under pressure.If you're a leader at work, at home, or in your community, this episode will challenge how you think, how you decide, and how you show up when things get complex.

Tyler Chisholm is a CEO, author, speaker, and podcast host who shows leaders that curiosity isn't optional — it's the edge that builds trust and drives growth.Early in his career, Tyler Chisholm believed leaders had to know it all.

Across boardrooms, interviews, and keynote stages, he shows leaders how asking better questions builds stronger teams, sharper decisions, and results that last.Connect with Tyler:Website: https://www.tylerchisholm.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tylerchisholm/Additional Resources:"Curious As Hell" by Tyler Chisholm on AmazonListen to the Podcast, subscribe, leave a rating and a review:Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-power-of-curiosity-why-leaders-must-be-curious/id1614151066?i=1000770523862 Spotify:  https://open.spotify.com/episode/2RsXXoexnZ9BW9fnyd8DuX?si=E0HFDldlTcaaSU7w5u1ZvA YouTube: https://youtu.be/lQ2BSfMhi9k

In this conversation, Minter Dial welcomes entrepreneur, athlete, and CEO J Johnson Jr, whose journey traverses viral app creation, elite athletics, and pioneering a new frontier in frequency-based wellness and performance.

If you work with or manage a Type 4 (or if you are a Type 4!) this one's for you. In this episode of our Starting Monday series, we're breaking down the do's and don'ts of giving feedback as an Enneagram Type 4: the Visionary. As always, the goal is simple: take these insights and put them to work by Monday.What You'll Hear in This EpisodeType 4s bring something genuinely rare to feedback conversations: real, deep empathy. They have an almost uncanny ability to see the whole person in front of them, not just their performance, but who they are. That's a gift. But like every type, the very thing that makes the 4 great at feedback can also get in the way if left unchecked.We walk through three things to do and three things to avoid when giving feedback as a Type 4, including a specific phrase you can use to open the conversation in a way that's both honest and caring.3 Things to DO as a Type 4 When Giving FeedbackLead with genuine connection. You naturally create emotional safety. Let the other person feel seen before you get into the substance of the feedback. Back up your observations with specifics. "I noticed in the last three meetings, you seemed disengaged" lands differently than "something feels off with your energy lately." You're still using your intuition, just anchoring it in something observable and actionable.Trust that honesty is kindness. Clear is kind. You may want to protect people from discomfort, but holding back the feedback they need isn't protecting them; it's withholding. You'll deliver it with care. Trust that.3 Things to AVOID as a Type 4 When Giving FeedbackLetting the emotional temperature of the room decide what gets said. If the other person seems fragile or it "doesn't feel like the right moment," the conversation can keep getting pushed. Check in with yourself — it might actually be exactly the right time.Framing everything through feelings language alone. "My sense is..." and "it felt like..." are valid, but they need to be paired with observable specifics. Without them, the feedback can be too easy to dismiss.Making it about your emotional experience rather than theirs. It's a subtle shift, but an important one. Ask yourself: whose feelings are being centered here?A Phrase to Try"I want to share something with you because I think you're capable of more , and I care too much about you and your success to stay quiet about it."Make it yours. But that spirit of "I see more in you than what's happening right now" is very much in the Type 4 wheelhouse, and it's a powerful way to open a hard conversation.Resources + Next Steps1) Have something to add? Are you a Type 4 who wants to push back on something or share what's worked for you? Or do you work with a Type 4 and want to share what you appreciate about the way they give feedback?

Are you tired of the "lazy way" to cut healthcare costs—just increasing deductibles and co-pays? In this episode, we're talking to someone who calls that approach what it is: the definition of insanity. Host Ramesh Kumar welcomes Adam V. Russo, Esq.—co-founder and visionary of The Phia Group, LLC, an innovative cost containment leader and attorney who represents employers and plan fiduciaries across the U.S. Adam is here to break down the secrets of delivering a great healthcare experience on a self-funded plan. You'll learn: • Why Direct Primary Care (DPC) is being called the "best" plan design choice for both employee retention and health, with studies showing a 13% reduction in overall claim spend in the first year. • How Adam's company, a successful self-funded employer, leveraged DPC to personally circumvent a $6,000 to $10,000 ER bill for just $80 a month. • The critical need for a complete employee mindset shift and a five-year education plan to truly win at cost management. Don't miss this powerful conversation on why increasing cost-sharing measures has failed, and how DPC offers a path to long-term success. Tune in now!

Visionary film director and stage magician Georges Méliès is perhaps the earliest filmmaker who saw the visual potential of folklore. Among others, mermaids, sirens, ghosts, devils, and sorcerers are plentiful in his films. True, many of these figures become important for their centrality to the ‘tricks' his films became famous for. Meanwhile, his films became important for the fantasy genres that would include later depictions of such folkloric beings! So how did Méliès include elements from folklore in his trick films?
