Duncan Johnson, CEO and co-founder of Northern Gritstone, joins VC10X to break down why the UK produces world-class science but struggles to turn it into globally significant companies. We dig into the £24 million vs. £980 million funding gap between the north of England and the Golden Triangle, why a US investor on your cap table can mean a 2x outperformance potential, and how Northern Gritstone's permanent capital structure lets it match the 15-year reality of deep-tech venture instead of forcing exits on a 10-year fund clock.Duncan also shares what UK institutional investors still get wrong about venture risk and portfolio construction, why concentrating capital in a handful of innovation clusters beats spreading it thin, where he believes the UK has a genuine right to win in applied and agentic AI, and the three qualities — ambition, aptitude, and attitude — that separate university spin-outs that become real businesses from the ones that stay great science projects.⭐ Sponsored by Podcast10x - Podcasting agency for VCs - https://podcast10x.comTimestamps:(00:00) - The Impact of US Investors on UK Startups (00:19) - Why the UK Fails to Create Tech Giants (00:29) - The UK's Commercial Talent Gap (00:50) - Why Talent is More Crucial Than Science (01:13) - Introduction to Duncan Johnson and Northern Gritstone (02:58) - The Problem Northern Gritstone Solves (03:08) - The North-South UK Funding Disparity (04:15) - Where the UK's Innovation Value Chain Breaks (05:59) - The Trend of UK Startups Seeking US Capital (06:14) - Data-Backed Benefits of Entering the US Ecosystem (08:05) - Defining the UK's Talent Shortage (08:27) - The Scarcity of Venture-Scale Experience (09:25) - Investor Perceptions of the UK's Future (09:41) - How Political Instability Affects UK Investment (11:28) - Northern Gritstone's Permanent Capital Model (11:48) - Pros and Cons of a Permanent Capital Structure (14:37) - Managing Shareholder Liquidity in a Permanent Capital Fund (14:58) - Strategies for Providing Investor Liquidity (17:17) - How New vs. Early Investors are Treated (20:00) - The Current Climate for Raising Venture Capital (22:11) - What Institutional Investors Misunderstand About Venture Capital (22:26) - The Key Misconceptions: Duration, Risk, and Portfolio Size (24:00) - The Case for Concentrated Innovation Clusters (26:07) - Spotlight on Northern Gritstone's Portfolio Companies (26:18) - The Story of Auxetic: A Breakthrough Material (28:40) - How Adsilico Uses AI for Medical Device Testing (30:13) - Uncomfortable Lessons from San Francisco (30:27) - What the UK Can Learn from Silicon Valley's Startup Culture (33:15) - Where the UK Has a Right to Win in AI (35:04) - How to Invest £10 Billion in the UK's AI Future (36:26) - From Science Project to Global Company (36:37) - The Three A's of Successful Founders: Ambition, Aptitude, and Attitude (37:42) - The 15-Year Vision for UK Tech (37:55) - Defining Success: A Trillion-Pound UK Tech Company (39:32) - A Common Misconception About UK Innovation (39:45) - Why Innovation is a Long-Term Game, Not a Quick Fix (40:56) - Where to Follow Duncan Johnson and Northern GritstoneLinks:Northern Gritstone: https://northerngritstone.comLinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/company/northern-gritstoneConnect with Prashant: https://linkedin.com/in/choubeysahabSubscribe to VC10X newsletter - ⁠https://vc10x.beehiiv.com⁠Subscribe on YouTube - ⁠https://youtube.com/@VC10X ⁠Subscribe on Apple Podcasts - ⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/vc10x-investing-venture-capital-asset-management-private/id1632806986⁠Subscribe on Spotify - ⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/7F7KEhXNhTx1bKTBFgzv3k?si=WgQ4ozMiQJ-6nowj6wBgqQ⁠VC10X website - ⁠https://vc10x.com#VentureCapital #UKInnovation #DeepTech #UniversitySpinouts #PermanentCapital

In this episode of The Tourism Chat Show, Michelle chats with Aimee Pitcher from Cape Sanctuary, a remarkable 2,500-hectare private conservation project on the Cape Kidnappers Peninsula in Hawke's Bay. Aimee shares the story behind Cape Sanctuary's 20-year restoration journey, from the 10.5km predator-proof fence to the return of 23 locally extinct species, more than one million native trees planted, and the extraordinary contribution of over 200 active volunteers. The conversation explores the importance of private conservation, the power of long-term vision, and why tourism - done carefully and intentionally - could help support the sanctuary's future. Aimee also shares why the Ocean Beach side of Cape Sanctuary is now becoming a key focus for future visitor experiences, with its restored dunes, wildlife, coastal landscapes and deeply layered conservation story. _______________________________________________ Powered by https://www.destinatenz.com  If you, or someone you work with has a great tourism story to share, and would like to come onto the show, please get in touch!

In this breakout, we will walk through a simple framework to discover and clarify a 5-year picture for your ministry. Leaders will learn how to start with the end in sight, define measurable proof of success, identify key milestones, and narrow their focus into practical 12-month outcomes and 90-day moves. The goal is to leave with a clearer picture of where the ministry is headed and the first steps needed to move toward it.This session was recorded live at Roundup 2026, a gathering of college ministry leaders hosted by the Southern Baptist of Texas Convention.Chuck Davenport serves as the Executive Discipleship Pastor at Sagemont Church, where he has served for nearly 10 years. He has been involved in collegiate ministry for 15 years, including almost 8 years as Sagemont's College Pastor. Chuck is passionate about helping people find Jesus, develop as leaders, and faithfully serve in the ministry God has entrusted to them.He and his wife, MaryAnn, have been married for 9 years and are raising three children, ages 5, 3, and 1. Outside of ministry, Chuck loves sports, fishing, grilling, and lifting weights. 

This is a live episode recorded at the 2026 Great Plains Stakeholder Workshop, hosted by the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation. The workshop brought together many of the country's leading grasslands conservationists, scientists, funders, and policy experts to tackle a huge question: what would it look like to create a bold, practical, long-term plan for conserving North America's grasslands over the next 30 years? My guests are two people helping to lead that effort: Dr. Holly Bamford, Chief Conservation Officer at the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (known as NFWF for short), and Marshall Johnson, Chief Conservation Officer for the National Audubon Society. Both have spent years working at the intersection of science, conservation, agriculture, and partnership-building, and both bring a realistic but hopeful perspective to the future of the Great Plains. In this conversation, we dig into the current state of the Great Plains and grasslands conservation more broadly– from grassland loss and declining bird populations to the creative partnerships helping ranchers, nonprofits, businesses, and government agencies work together toward solutions. We discuss the importance of voluntary conservation, the complicated economics facing ranching communities, the role of programs like the Farm Bill, and why grass-based agriculture and healthy wildlife habitat are far more interconnected than many people realize. Holly and Marshall also share stories from their own lives that explain how they each became so deeply connected to these landscapes– from prairie chicken blinds in Minnesota to the wide-open grasslands of the American West. More than anything, this conversation is about long-term thinking. What does it look like to create a 30-year vision for one of the most ecologically important and underappreciated landscapes in North America? What gives these conservation leaders hope? And what keeps them up at night? There's a lot of realism in this discussion, but there's also a surprising amount of optimism, practicality, and momentum. I learned a ton from this conversation, and I think you will too. Be sure to check out the episode notes for links to the organizations, initiatives, and resources we discuss throughout the episode.

In This Episode We DiscussWhy end-of-year classroom routines often fall apart after testingHow to maintain high expectations in your upper elementary literacy classroom through the last day of schoolThe connection between teacher expectations, student behavior, and student effortWhy structure and consistency matter more than “keeping students busy” during the post-testing seasonHow to cast a realistic vision for the end of the school year without burning yourself outThe difference between reacting to the end of the year vs. intentionally designing itA simple framework for helping students continue reading, writing, thinking, and learning through May and JuneHow maintaining expectations supports both classroom management and academic growth• Casting a vision for how you want your classroom to look, sound, and feel at the end of the school year• Choosing a few clear academic and behavior non-negotiables• Maintaining literacy routines even after state testing• Continuing reading, writing, discussion, and thinking work through the final weeks• Reflecting on where expectations became unclear during the school year• Editing unrealistic end-of-year plans so they align with your energy and values• Supporting students through transitions while maintaining structure and consistencyThese are all practical strategies designed to help upper elementary teachers finish the school year with intention, maintain classroom expectations, and protect the learning students have worked hard to build all year long.As you listen, consider this question:What am I intentionally maintaining in my classroom right now?Because students don't just respond to what we say matters at the end of the year—they respond to what we consistently reinforce.Instructional leadership starts with teachers who are willing to design the ending of the school year with as much intention as they designed the beginning.This episode focuses on the first component of Eva's four-part Finish Strong-ish framework:Clarify:What students will be doing, saying, and producingWhat expectations supported student successWhat routines and expectations need to stay consistentHow you want your classroom to feel through the final weeks of schoolFuture episodes in this series will also unpack:Back End (teacher systems, organization, and motivation)Front and Center (keeping learning intentional)Community (cultivating classroom connection and belonging)• The Pygmalion Effect (Rosenthal & Jacobson)• Research on teacher expectations and student outcomes• World Economic Forum research on vision, resilience, and future-focused thinkingEpisode 133: Finish Strong-ish Series Overview

On Episode 456 of Airey Bros Radio, we're stepping back onto the oval and going Belly to Belly with Coach Cash Kunkel, Head Men's & Women's Cross Country and Track & Field Coach at University of the Ozarks.In his first season leading the program, Coach Kunkel has already made an immediate impact — rebuilding culture, developing athletes, and setting the foundation for long-term success at the NCAA Division III level.A former standout at Arkansas State University and University of the Incarnate Word, Kunkel brings a championship pedigree as a:Sun Belt Conference Steeplechase ChampionIndoor 3K ChampionFirst-Team All-Conference athleteIn this episode, we dive into:Transitioning from athlete to head coachTaking over a program weeks before the seasonBuilding culture and trust with athletesRecruiting philosophy at the Division III levelDeveloping distance runners from the ground upIndoor & outdoor track success (17+ school records broken)Double threshold training & modern distance trendsWhat makes Ozarks a unique opportunity for recruitsIf you're a high school runner, college recruit, or coach — this episode is a real look at what it takes to build a program and create opportunity at the next level.

In episode 359 of the Magellan Network Show, Coach Joe Lucas, recording from Auckland, New Zealand, breaks down his goal-setting framework for financial advisors. The core of the framework is a 10-3-1 structure: a bold 10-year vision, a 3-year snapshot, and a 1-year action plan. He organizes goal setting around four boxes: • The Goal: an "impossible" 10-year target you can't easily reverse-engineer • Why it's a Must: stacking personal reasons to build commitment over motivation • Who You Need to Become: the identity shift required to reach that goal (the most important and overlooked box) • The Recipe: the tactical how-to (the easiest box, but where most advisors spend all their time) A key exercise he shares: compress your 10-year goal into 3 years as a stress test to clarify priorities and eliminate dead-end paths. The episode emphasizes that intentional identity transformation, not just planning, is what collapses the timeline to achieving big goals.

In this episode, Chris sits down with Nat Eliason - founder, writer, and now launching Alpha High, a new entrepreneur high school in New York City. Tuition is $150K a year. The promise: every student hits a million dollars in gross profit by graduation, or the family gets their tuition refunded. The first class is around 20 freshmen. The day is split between AI-driven academics in the morning and business building the rest of the day. This is also the same Nat Eliason who in his spare time built Felix - an AI agent he gave a Stripe account, an email, and an X handle, then told to launch a business overnight. Felix has done $60+K in sales since. Nat has not touched the code. They discuss: - Why the "game of school" is kayfabe and what's finally breaking it - The 16-year-old flying out to California to run short-form video for Al Pacino's new movie - The Munger inversion behind Alpha's curriculum: "why would these kids fail?" - What businesses a 14-year-old should and shouldn't build (and the $500/month software budget) - How Nat masters a new domain every two or three years, and why his $35K smart-contract loss accelerated him faster than caution would have - Felix - what "zero human" actually looks like, and the rules Nat set up to keep himself out of it - The day Anthropic shut off Open Claw and Alpha students reverse-engineered a proxy workaround in hours - Why the founding fathers wrote the Declaration in their early 20s, and what we forgot about teenagers Timestamps (05:55) What Alpha Does Differently From Conventional Schools (11:48) Playing the Fake Game of School (21:46) How Nat Masters New Domains (32:18) Open Claw Deep Dive (43:50) Building the Alpha Entrepreneurship Program (51:43) Freshman Year Structure at Alpha School (1:00:23) How Students Can Pitch for Equity or Debt Funding (1:04:08) Why Establish a New York Location for Year One (1:11:15) Nat's 10-Year Vision (1:15:11) AI as a Force Multiplier for Teenage Founders (1:16:15) How Alpha Students Quickly Reverse-Engineered a Workaround After Open Claw Went Down (1:24:13) Teen-Parent Conflict as a Symptom of Infantilization Support our Sponsors Collateral Partners: https://collateral.com/fort Chris on Social Media: X: https://x.com/fortworthchris Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thepowerspodcast LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrispowersjr/ Visit our website: https://www.powerspod.com/ Leave a review on Apple: https://bit.ly/45crFD0 Leave a review on Spotify: https://bit.ly/3Krl9jO

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly talk about how the think it be it life GPS template is set up around your career. There are six things you need to define. Your business plan, your strategy for success, the two – three things that move the needle, where you want your business to be three years from now. The 4 - 5 milestones to get there, and the linchpin issue to go to the next level. But maybe the most important of the six is defining your three year vision for your business. Once you see where you want to go, then you will define the 4-5 milestones to get there from where you are today. That gives you the path. But the lesson from today's podcast is it's all about clarity. The clearer you see where you're going, the more clear it is what the right actions are to get there. John and Kelly talk about over the years with their think it be it business, and some years they liked the three year vision and some years they didn't like the direction. So it's valuable on an every six month basis to assess on a scale of 1 to 10 how well you like your three year career vision. If you don't find yourself liking it to the level of a nine or 10, maybe it's better to spend more time figuring out how to get it to that nine or 10 than continuing to continuing to pursue a three year vision that you don't fully embrace. Clarity always brings the right actions to the surface. Buy John's book, THE MISSING SECRET of the Legendary Book Think and Grow Rich : And a 12-minute-a-day technique to apply it here.About the Hosts:John MitchellJohn's story is pretty amazing. After spending 20 years as an entrepreneur, John was 50 years old but wasn't as successful as he thought he should be. To rectify that, he decided to find the “top book in the world” on SUCCESS and apply that book literally Word for Word to his life. That Book is Think & Grow Rich. The book says there's a SECRET for success, but the author only gives you half the secret. John figured out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it.When John applied his 12 minute a day technique to his life, he saw his yearly income go to over $5 million a year, after 20 years of $200k - 300k per year. The 25 times increase happened because John LEVERAGED himself by applying science to his life.His daily technique works because it focuses you ONLY on what moves the needle, triples your discipline, and consistently generates new business ideas every week. This happens because of 3 key aspects of the leveraging process.John's technique was profiled on the cover of Time Magazine. He teaches it at the University of Texas' McCombs School of Business, which is one the TOP 5 business schools in the country. He is also the “mental coach” for the head athletic coaches at the University of Texas as well.Reach out to John at john@thinkitbeit.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-mitchell-76483654/Kelly HatfieldKelly Hatfield is an entrepreneur at heart.

Are you parenting for the weekend or for the next century? Most parents are stuck in "Management Mode"—just trying to survive the daily chaos of schedules, chores, and school runs. But God's design for the home isn't just about survival; it's about Architecture. In this episode, Nathan and Andrea Warnock discuss shifting from a short-term "Survival Mindset" to a "100-Year Vision." We explore why your marriage is the primary classroom for your children, how to avoid the "Lentil Soup Trap" of choosing convenience over character, and how to draft a family mission that outlasts your lifetime. It's time to stop managing a household and start building a legacy. Marriage By Design is a channel dedicated to digging into God's design for marriage and family - as well as talking practically live that out in our marriages and families. Our goal is to leave you encouraged that you CAN do marriage and family by God's design and to give you HOPE that God IS FOR YOUR MARRIAGE AND YOUR FAMILY!!!

What will human civilization look like in 150 years? Abdo John Hajj, partner at Type One Ventures, believes we are at the beginning of a deep tech supercycle that will transition humanity into a "Type 1 Civilization"—one that harnesses the full energy of its host star and becomes truly interplanetary. In this interview, Abdo explains why space is not just about rockets, but about building the infrastructure for abundance. We discuss why Tesla's Optimus robots will likely colonize Mars before humans do , the critical need for a "circular economy" in space (mining water for fuel) , and the geopolitical reality of who will enforce the law on the lunar surface.

If you've ever felt successful on the outside but misaligned on the inside, or wondered how to design a life that truly feels meaningful and aligned, today's episode will give you a powerful new way to think about your future. In this episode of The Art of Living Well Podcast®, Marnie and Stephanie sit down with designer, author, educator, and longtime host of the Design Matters podcast, Debbie Millman.

Many people appear successful on the surface yet feel disconnected from what truly matters to them. Debbie explains how writing a declaration about your future can help you reconnect with what you actually want, move past fear and self-doubt, and begin taking courageous steps toward the life you envision. Whether you're navigating midlife transitions, career shifts, or simply feeling called to something more meaningful, this conversation will inspire you to pause, reflect, and ask yourself one powerful question: If not now, when? Key Takeaways: Prioritizing courage is the first step toward designing a life that truly aligns with who you are. Writing a 10-year vision for your life can expand what you believe is possible. Confidence develops through repetition and taking action, not waiting until you feel ready. Many people live lives that look impressive on paper but feel misaligned internally. Fear often comes from internal barriers rather than external limitations. Declaring your dreams out loud can shift your mindset and create momentum. Midlife can be the perfect time to rethink what you truly want next. Designing your future begins with giving yourself permission to imagine it.

What does it really take to stay motivated, grounded, and confident when building a business through different seasons of life? In this special 300th episode of the Direct Selling Accelerator Podcast, I’m answering real questions from you, our listeners - questions about belief, motivation, balance, leadership, and courage. I talk about why you’ll never achieve perfect “balance”, how to lead others by example, what to do when business feels quiet, and how to manage mum life, work, and personal growth without burning out. I also share powerful lessons learned from past podcast guests, including mindset experts, entrepreneurs, and even elite athletes and professional actors - and how borrowing courage can help you move forward when fear shows up. This episode is a heartfelt reflection on growth, resilience, and why grace matters just as much as strategy. If you’re building a business and a life at the same time, this one is for you.

Is Abundance Inevitable? A 100-Year Vision with McKinsey's Chris Bradley What if the "Black Mirror" version of the future is wrong? In this episode, Mike Palmer talks with Chris Bradley, Senior Partner at McKinsey and Director of the McKinsey Global Institute (MGI), about his new book, A Century of Plenty: A Story of Progress for Generations to Come. Chris breaks down the "Machine of Progress" and explains why a "strategic optimism" mindset is essential for navigating the next century.

Happy New Year witches! A huge welcome back to the show! This new Year is feeling powerful - and, if you're a Witch into manifesting magic - aka creating your magical life - then I want to share and invite you to our free taster event coming up this Thursday. I'll be leading circle in our Meet your Witch ceremony - if you've enjoyed listening to the show, and you're feeling called by some strange pull to taking the tender first steps with your Witch, I invite you to join us in this heart-opening ceremony where you'll begin to open to your heart's deeper vision.  Which is very apt for today's show - you can join us at https://meetyourwitch.eventbrite.co.uk/ - claim your free ticket and step into 2026 from your Witchy power! And yes, there's a replay so we will send that if you can't join live. On the Secret Witch Show today, Nicole opens the New Year with a deep, magical exploration of what it truly means to create a vision from soul rather than strategy. She speaks to the Secret Witch who longs for manifestation yet fears it, who has learned to either hustle or rebel, who wants to step into her Creatrix power but feels blocked by doubt, burnout, resistance or confusion about what she even desires. Nicole invites us into a different way of creating - one rooted in the Feminine, in 'feeling' rather than 'thinking', and in allowing our hearts to reveal the woman we long to become. In this episode we explore why strategic visioning often collapses our magic, how the Witch can find the 'Third Way' beyond push-or-collapse, and why soul visions feel impossible, terrifying and wildly honest. Nicole shares the personal initiations that shaped her own vision - including withdrawing her daughter from school, and recreating her entire life around creating a soul-business and soul-led homeschooling - a dream that once felt utterly impossible. Through story and deeper teachings of the laws of manifestation, she guides you toward opening your heart, illuminating your resistance, and beginning to discover the soul vision held quietly in the fabric of your cells. What You'll Learn from this Episode: A soul vision can only be accessed through feeling, embodiment and the heart - not through thinking, strategy or the logical Masculine "what do I want?" approach The Witch's true creative power emerges when she moves beyond both poles of hustling /forcing and collapsing/rebelling — and enters the 'Third Way' of soul-led creation Manifestation is not about figuring out the HOW, it's about holding a heart-led, impossible-feeling vision while tending the wounds and shadows that pull us away from it We are always creating - but without a soul vision, we unconsciously create from wounding, fear, doubt and the unmet needs of our inner little girl A true soul vision will feel confronting, unrealistic or even terrifying, because it reveals the deeper truth of who we are and calls us into our power and possibility Soul creation requires vulnerability and courage - the willingness to trust the mystery, meet resistance honestly, and take aligned action even when the path feels impossible or unclear - but it's worth it!

Happy New Year! 2026 is officially here! Many people dive into the new year with reckless abandon hoping to meet all of their elusive life goals. This often leads to self-loathing when we fail to meet the unrealistic expectation we've hastily set for ourselves. But what if this year we take a gentler approach? Rather than jumping in with both feet, instead we tiptoe into the next calendar year with an intentional, well-laid plan. Instead of rushing, what if we paused, considered, and took our time plotting a thoughtful journey? As we consider the year before us, take the time you need… this may be the key to creating the life you truly desire. What am I reading?The Silver Witch by Paula Brackston https://bookshop.org/a/111301/9781250086341Every Day I Read: 53 Ways to Get Closer to Books by Hwang Bo-reumhttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9781639737796https://bookshop.org/shop/witchywomanwalkingWhat's playing on repeat?C'Mon Down by Poor Man's Poison What's for dinner? French Onion Soup Ingredients:6 large yellow onions 4 tablespoons unsalted butter2 tablespoons olive oil1 teaspoon granulated sugar1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste6 cups rich beef or veggie broth 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves – or 1 tablespoon dried thyme2 bay leaves1/2 teaspoon black pepper6-8 thick slices of day-old baguette1½ cups grated Gruyère cheese – Swiss or Provolone work as alternatives1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheeseInstructions:Slice all onions uniformly using a sharp knife or mandoline.

Welcome back to the Empower Her Business Accelerator podcast! I'm your host, Philippa Channer, and I'm so glad you're joining me this Christmas week. I hope you're taking a moment to rest, reflect, and reconnect with what matters most—your values, your faith, your family, and your purpose. As the year wraps up, this episode is all about zooming out and getting clear on where you're really headed. If you've been focused on surviving the week, it's time to shift into a new gear: CEO-level vision and strategy. In this episode, we'll walk through how to: Visualize your 10-year dream for life and business Break it into 3-year and 1-year milestones Align your offers and marketing to match your bigger goals Make strategic planning a consistent habit Stay flexible while still leading with intention ⏱ Timestamps (00:00) Christmas Week Reflections & Setting the Stage (01:00) A Solopreneur's Guide to Long-Term Vision (02:00) Casting Your 10-Year Vision (03:30) Breaking It Into 3-Year & 1-Year Milestones (04:30) Aligning Your Offers and Content (05:30) Make Strategic Planning a Habit (06:30) Stay Flexible and Evolve with Purpose

Watching his wife spend weeks building custom Christmas decorations from scratch—with zero blueprint and no clear plan beyond a color theme—revealed a powerful business truth. We glorify the Bezos-style crystal clear vision, thinking that's what you need to succeed. But the reality? Most wildly successful entrepreneurs will tell you their business took on a life of its own. Building a business is more art than science—more Steve Jobs ("you can only connect the dots in hindsight") than detailed master plan. This episode explores why loving the process matters more than having perfect clarity, how the process itself reveals options you couldn't have predicted, and why energy to push through inevitable frustrations comes from one of two sources: either a vision so clear it pulls you through, or genuine love for the creative journey itself.//Welcome to Repeatable Revenue, hosted by strategic growth advisor , Ray J.

Welcome to the 301st episode of Take Flight Weekly. Today, I introduce my word for 2026: RightSize. It's more than a word—it's a mindset I'll use throughout 2026. RightSizing is about creating alignment between who you are, what you want, and how you operate. For some, it means scaling back; for others, expanding. It could mean eliminating the unnecessary, moving up in quality, or moving down in volume to make room for what truly matters and creates an ROI or ROT (return on time). RightSizing is a philosophy rooted in awareness and discipline. It's about resisting the pull toward "more" and choosing what's right. It's making decisions based on energy, alignment, and outcome. In a world that glorifies growth at any cost, RightSizing is the counter-move. Over time, we accumulate commitments, systems, and clients that no longer fit. We add before we edit. We say yes because we can, not because we should. The result? Overwhelm, inefficiency, and a business that feels heavy instead of freeing. RightSizing forces you to create boundaries and audit your time. Are your goals still yours, or have they become someone else's expectations? Is your business operating at 30,000 feet, or are you still in constant takeoff mode? 10 Areas to RightSize in 2026: → Your Business Model – Built for profit, predictability, and joy? → Your Team – Right people in the right seats? → Your Client Base – Working with clients who energize you? → Your Time – How much is proactive vs. reactive? → Your Marketing – Focus on consistency over complexity → Your Systems – Eliminate what's redundant → Your Financial Structure – Align expenses with your vision → Your Health & Energy – Peak performance or running on fumes? → Your Space – Inspiring or cluttering your headspace? → Your Vision – Does your 3-Year Vision still excite you? RightSizing sets you up for the next level. In 2026, refuse to live on autopilot. Audit your commitments, align your priorities, and design 2026 to reflect what truly matters. What is your word for 2026? If this resonated, share it with someone who needs to hear it. Subscribe via email at @askjimmiller. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

On this 300th episode of Take Flight Weekly, I want to teach you one of the simplest, most effective habits for running your business like a professional: the weekly planning session. If you've ever wondered how elite-level entrepreneurs and advisors stay focused, consistent, and calm in the middle of chaos, it's not luck—it comes down to elite-level planning and staying in a rhythm of consistency. Their weeks are built by design. The weekly planning session is your reset button, your opportunity to move from week to week proactively. It sets up each week to ensure that what you're doing each day aligns with your quarterly goals, annual goals, and your 3 Year Vision. Done right, it's the single most important 60 to 90 minutes of your week. When you run a high-performance business, you can't wing it. No one is that good. A weekly planning session ensures you're grounded, focused, and prepared—moving seamlessly from week to week. Without it, you drift into reactive mode, chasing what's urgent instead of what's important. With it, you gain control of your calendar, energy, and your outcomes. Best Practices for a Weekly Planning Session: → Create a recurring calendar invite. Choose the same time every week. Allow 60–90 minutes. Protect this block like a client meeting. → Review all correspondence from the previous week. Ask yourself: Did I miss an opportunity? → Review your previous week's calendar. Identify what worked, what didn't, and what needs follow-up. → Review your upcoming week. What events or meetings need preparation? → Review your CRM. Identify your "Next 10"—the retention and conversion process. → Identify one project that aligns with your quarterly goal. → Review your 3 Year Vision. See it. Feel it. Experience it in advance. When you treat your weekly planning session as a non-negotiable, you'll find yourself more grounded, better prepared, with way fewer missed opportunities. You'll walk into Monday playing on offense without the anxiety of not being prepared. Calculate the monetary value of the missed opportunities with your clients just in the last year. What's that number? $1M, $5M, $15M in production? What did you leave on the table? Get out your calendar right now and schedule a recurring appointment with yourself for 60-90 minutes each week. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
