The Unshakable Company™ Podcast

Break the Business Burnout Cycle

Business burnout is a very real phenomenon for entrepreneurs, and it often occurs in a cycle. “If I want it done right, I’ll have to do it myself.” ← Have you ever said THIS before? If so, this episode is for you.

One moment, you’ll feel like everything is handled and things are moving forward like a well-oiled machine. Then, a team member will drop the ball, a customer will complain, or something will get missed, and you feel stressed, overwhelmed, and like you want to quit. These two phases repeat, and you have yourself stuck in a cycle.

Listen to this episode to discover why you experience business burnout repeatedly and how you can break free from the business burnout cycle.  

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

• How the burnout cycle starts, and which two of your behaviors keep it operating on repeat.
• The common but unhelpful ways most entrepreneurs try to resolve business burnout that actually lead to further issues.

Simplify Your Big Money Goals in 6 Steps

What is your next big money goal? Is it making $250K in a year? Or $500K? Or $1M?

Whatever it is, big money goals have one thing in common: they can feel a bit uncertain and may even leave you feeling overwhelmed or unsure if it’s even possible. 

This is all normal because, naturally, your goals are something you haven’t achieved before. However, we need to shift those feelings of impossibility and uncertainty and frame your goals in a way that feels simple and doable if you want to create success.

I have a 6 step “goal math” process using basic mathematics that will help you simplify your big money goals, and I’m sharing those steps with you in this episode.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

• The 6 quick goal math steps you can use to simplify your big money goals.
• Which numbers are essential to know so you can set yourself up for success.
• How to use goal math to help you make decisions about your pricing, offer suite, marketing strategy, and more!

Maximizing Team Performance: Navigating the 3 Team Member Types

If you want to create a successful team, a “one-size-fits-all” approach will not work. Each team member is unique and comes to your organization with a different skill, motivation, and experience level.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

• What the 3 team member types are, and how to identify each.
• My top 3 suggestions for how to lead each type of team member to maximize results.
• How to manage your mindset around your team's differences and lead your team to success.

We all know that finding the right people to join your team is no easy task. Hiring for success involves crucial decisions that will significantly impact your business success.

Prioritizing Performance: Shifting Focus from Size to Results in Team Growth

Many business owners believe that a larger team is a sign of success. And while I am all about celebrating as you expand your team - I believe the focus of team growth should be less about how large your team is and more about how well they perform.

Because the size of your team doesn’t matter if you’re not getting results.

In fact, a small, well-aligned, and motivated team can outperform a larger, less cohesive team.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

• The importance of prioritizing team performance over size.
• The benefits of small teams, such as better collaboration, communication, agility, and autonomy.
• How a high-performing team, regardless of its size, can deliver outstanding results.
• The role of scalability and sustainability in team growth and business success.

The Art of Giving Feedback

Imagine how chaotic and confusing it would be if sports teams didn’t have coaches to give guidance and feedback.

The team’s potential for improvement would be severely limited and the players would all be doing their own thing. 

Just like in sports, your team members need guidance and feedback to improve and as uncomfortable as it may be, it’s your responsibility to give it to them.

That’s why, I’m sharing the most important aspects of giving feedback in my latest podcast episode. You’ll learn:

• The framework I use to give effective feedback
• The importance of understanding the root cause
• Coaching vs Correction
• Commitment and Support
