You love podcasts? Me too. Here are my take aways (and favorite shows) from being a guest on about 80 shows in the past 12 months.

The best shows are the ones that are truly niched in. They provide depth and actionable advise. They choose their guests wisely and are well prepared. They skip the obvious questions to go straight to where there’s value and learning for the audience.

A LOT of podcasts don’t live long. It’s a hard business and standing out among the thousands and thousands is tough. Ever wondered why the show you initially liked disappeared all of a sudden? Countless reasons…

Among those who live long, there are more than a handful that are not in it to provide value to their audience. They just push out shows every other day, no matter what. For them it’s about visibility and quantity, and a lead gen mechanism. Everything counts in large amounts, right?

Big name does not always mean big learning or entertainment (whatever you are after). I prefer podcasts that grew based on the amazing content they provide (there a few that have great names AND great content).

Some of my favorite shows these days:

It All Works by Jason Wiehler: outstanding depth and detail all things tactical marketing.

The Virtual Campfire by Tony Martignetti: deep conversations exploring business and leadership beyond making profits

After Hours with Felix Oberholzer-Gee: dissecting a wide range of hot topics, entertaining and always insightful, a new season just started!

And then a few classics like Adam Grant’s WorkLife and Roman Mars’s 99% Invisible (his about con law is also fun and very insightful).

And as always, I’m curious to learn: which podcasts do you dig?

Hope is not a strategy. But hope is exactly what many seem to hold onto these days.

Governments counter high inflation with the only tools they have: rising interest rates.

And every time, they hope higher interest rates won’t trigger a recession. Same reflexes and fears. And hopes.

But hope is not a strategy. Especially businesses need to prepare for what’s around the corner.

Review your 12-24 months business strategy now.
If you don’t have a solid strategy formulated yet, this is the time.

Recessions see winners and losers. Coasting is not an option.

Act.

If you want it done right, do it yourself? No way.

This one is a great example that I couldn’t “do it right” myself.

I struggled to decide between several design options for the cover of my upcoming book.

So, I asked my email community to vote their favorite - and wow, did you come through! 

I received tons of emails with super helpful ideas for design tweaks. 

You are just the best community I could ask for 🥰 THANK YOU!

Drumroll please: this is the front cover - how do you like it? 😃

Save the date! This is a proud moment 😃 and I invite you to put your party hats on!

In a few weeks, my first book will be published!

11 chapters about thriving in business and leading a balanced life.

Topics include business strategy (surprise hahaha!), leadership, disruption, culture, self-care, and sustainability.

On 18th October, we'll celebrate the release with a virtual pre-launch party - you are invited!

I can't wait to share more about the book and the party - stay tuned!

Big businesses typically have some body fat.

They can take a punch, ie afford mistakes, even strategic ones, without immediately going down.

The smaller your business, the less fat you typically have to absorb a body shot.

So, the smaller a business, the bigger the need for strategic clarity!

You just can’t afford to waste your attention on things that don’t matter. Or you will go down…

Strategic clarity is about:

1. Being fully niched in: knowing whom you serve, where to find them, how to address them
2. Being on vision: having a picture of how your business will look like in 6, 12, 24 months, and how you will get there
3. Being intentional: knowing what NOT to do and what to let go of, to focus on what’s success-critical

No clarity, no success. No success, and you will eventually run out of business. Clarity matters.

Lack of clarity is the #1 reason my clients contact me in the first place.

They realize that the way to reach their goals is fuzzy or undefined.

Reason #2 is Overwhelm - they are working on too many topics at the same time, stretching themselves too thin.

And #3: Missing their targets - they hit a glass ceiling and don’t grow beyond the status quo.

Often, breakthrough success is just a few strategic tweaks away - and for most of my clients it’s little more than a day’s work.

Be smart. Reach out. Let’s roll 🙌🏼🤙🏼

I find this to be one of the most challenging and rewarding questions:

Do I love the life I’m living?

Answering truthfully requires a certain level of courage. The consequences of answering with anything but yes can be daunting.

After all, realizing you don’t live a life you love requires action - or willingness to settle for less.

What are you ready to do, sacrifice, or eliminate from your current life to build the future you want?

❤️ For a happier romantic relationship —> are you ready to confront your own deficiencies, instead of blaming your significant other?

💰 To start a business —> are you ready to sacrifice financial stability, at least for a while?

⚖️ For a more balanced life —> are you willing to leave behind toxic people and bad habits, and amplify what fills you with joy?

The best day to start building the life you love was yesterday. The next best day is today - you can do it 💪

What will help you to start today, and keep going tomorrow?

Happy Canada Day! I hope as a country we can do more to reconcile and bring about justice. Generations of wrongdoing can’t be healed over night, so we better do as much as we can to compensate for the horrible wrongdoings of the past.
