126. Losses, Stupid Decisions, and Big Mistakes
I always enjoy it when people I follow share their mistakes. It helps me to realize/remember that they too are human. The truth is nobody has it all together and we all make mistakes, sometimes really painful ones. While mistakes can be a valuable teacher, it's even better to learn from the mistakes of others. Many people just went through a crisis with their business and finances, and it seems like the economic rollercoaster may continue. The only thing worse than going through difficult times is not learning from them. For that reason, I created a blog containing 50 of the most important lessons I've learned. In this podcast, I do a deep dive on 3 of them. I chose these 3 because I thought they would either be the most important ones for you to learn or because they were the most insidious. Listen carefully, chew on them, and make a plan to avoid them on your journey!

125. Sinking Funds - Your Key to Eliminating Money Worry
Can you relate to either of these problems? First, you have decent money coming in but because of the way it flows in, it's difficult to allocate it to the right areas. To top it off, expenses can be all over the place. One month you may need some new equipment and the next, payroll goes up. How do you make sure everything is covered? Many people know what they should do but have trouble doing it. Deep down they know a purchase isn't wise and may be sabotaging themselves to a certain extent but they do it anyway. Have you done that? I know I have. Finally, how about simply "needing" something but not having the money for it? Since you don't have the money for something, you "borrow" from somewhere else, perhaps even your future. If you can relate to any of these things, today is your lucky day! I recorded a podcast episode all about how to use the power of sinking funds to help eliminate money worry! Enjoy the show and as always, thanks for tuning in!

123. The 5Ps of Success
If I'm completely honest, there were a couple of podcast episodes where I sort of "mailed it in." Don't get me wrong, the content was solid. It's just that I was a bit rushed and was more focused on "getting it shipped" than I was on the quality. It's a common trap fitness pros fall into. We are juggling so many balls that sometimes the important stuff begins to slip. When my wife told me she noticed it, it was a real wake-up call. Check out today's episode to see how I responded and why it's one of the best things that could have happened! Enjoy the show and as always, thanks for tuning in!

122. Standing Out From The Crowd - An Interview with Tony Gentilcore
My interview with Tony Gentilcore is one of the most well-rounded ones I've had on the show. We covered so many important topics I wasn't sure what to call it. Here are just some of the things we discussed. Tony has managed to create a great following and he did it the right way. He's humble to say that he had good "luck" but we know that luck is when preparation meets opportunity. I like the way he simplifies the process of creating content and connect with his audience (hint: he drops 90s hip hop references). The content creation section of the interview was worth the listen alone but we also dove into some other useful topics. We talked about how Tony is a co-founder of Cressey Performance and how he used his time there to not only get lots of experience but build his own brand. This is an important topic both from the standpoint of being a coach AND being a business owner as it's difficult to manage the balance of supporting coaches to reach their potential while protecting your business. Of course we talked about the money side of things too, everything from having a system to ensure cash flow as well as the importance of multiple revenue streams.

121. Staying on Purpose
Today's episode is called Staying on Purpose. While I've recorded other episodes about creating a vision, today is more about staying on purpose. Losing hope is something I don't want you to experience. We can all get discouraged and life can beat us up but it's crucial that we don't lose hope and give up. There are some keys to persevering and staying on purpose and in this short episode, I share some specific strategies you can use to stay on purpose. I even share a story about how even I almost went completely off track!

118. 3 Biggest Entrepreneurial Mistakes to Avoid - Micah Logan Returns
Micah Logan is only the second guest I've invited on the show twice so hopefully, you can see I value what he has to say and felt another conversation would be useful. Micah was on episode 76 and was titled Lessons in Economics. This time Micah is back and we discussed 3 important topics. First, it was all about lessons from Covid. These are valuable takeaways that if we can learn from can help us strive for years to come. Let's not waste a difficult experience. The other topics were all about mistakes, not necessarily related to Covid but to entrepreneurship and marketing in general. If you can get these things right, you will avoid some pain and find much more joy in your business and life. Find out how to make sure the important components of your biz are on point now!

117. The Parable of The Talents
Today's podcast contains lessons straight out of the Good Book. The Parable of The Talents is one of my favorite stories in the bible and contains timeless lessons for us about money, work, and our abilities. I did a whole presentation on the topic but recorded some key takeaways for you. A lot of people talk about reaching more of their potential but neglect to understand what the process to get there actually looks like. This parable also addresses the beliefs that many people have regarding what they have. Many people think that they don't have enough and constantly compare themselves to others. This principle and others like it have served me well and I hope they do the same for you! Would love to know if you find it helpful. Let me know so I can plan accordingly.
