Eps 24 - Stop Paying People to Lose
Sunday Jun 15, 2025
Sunday Jun 15, 2025
If Canada were a business, half the team would be fired. In this episode, I unpack the June wage and productivity report — and what it reveals about the economy, leadership, and how business owners like us can (and must) respond differently. I share what I’m doing inside my company to avoid the same traps and why capital allocation — not more hiring — might be your most important decision right now.

Eps 23 - The Hidden Costs of Business Debt
Monday Jun 09, 2025
Monday Jun 09, 2025
Debt doesn’t just limit your cash—it limits your leadership. In today’s episode, I unpack why the wrong kind of debt is a silent killer in your business. From biblical wisdom to practical business strategy, I explore what it means to borrow like a steward, not a slave. If you’re carrying debt that isn’t creating value, it’s costing more than you think. Here’s how to change that—so you can lead in freedom again.

Eps 22 - Why Cutting Costs Won’t Save You
Saturday Jun 07, 2025
Saturday Jun 07, 2025
The U.S. won’t cut its debt. Your business shouldn’t either. In this episode, I explain why “cutting your way to profitability” is a lie—and how real entrepreneurs grow their way out of financial stress. From replacing overpriced software to flipping payroll into performance pay, I share what worked for us—and what scripture says about stewardship, cash flow, and choosing which master you serve. If you’ve hit the edge, this one’s for you.

Eps 21 - Canada’s Economy Needs a Therapist
Sunday Jun 01, 2025
Sunday Jun 01, 2025
In today’s episode, I explain why I’ve stopped trying to escape Canada—and started building better within it. I explore what it means to personify countries, what Elon Musk’s resignation from public influence really teaches us, and why I’m choosing to double down on people when the economy feels like it’s failing. I’m still going to the U.S. and Spain. But Canada? Maybe it’s not a lost cause—if we build the future ourselves.

Eps 20 - Canada Runs Like a Bad Business
Sunday Jun 01, 2025
Sunday Jun 01, 2025
In today’s episode, I break down why Canada’s economy mirrors a badly run business—low productivity, no vision, and zero incentive to improve. From falling capital investment to a government acting more like a goalie than a leader, it’s clear why entrepreneurs are hesitant to grow here. I unpack the numbers, the missed opportunities, and the real-world options forward—including what we’re doing in the U.S. and Spain instead. If you're a builder, this one’s for you.

Eps 19 - Take the Punch. Build Anyway.
Sunday Jun 01, 2025
Sunday Jun 01, 2025
Hiring has stalled. Capital investment is frozen. Inflation is looming. So what now? In this episode, I share how we’re responding inside our company—using AI, doubling down on partnerships, and locking in cost controls. I explain why waiting is the worst strategy during uncertainty, and how to take the punch, make the pivot, and keep building when others freeze. This is what real leadership looks like when the economy shifts.

Eps 18 - Rethinking My Highest and Best Use
Saturday May 24, 2025
Saturday May 24, 2025
This week, I explore a question every entrepreneur must face: what is your highest and best use? Inspired by Elon Musk’s pivot back to the private sector, I reflect on how changing environments—from Canada to Spain to the U.S.—are shaping where and how I want to lead. If your margins are tight, the stress is mounting, and you feel the pull toward purpose, this episode is for you. It’s not about leaving—it’s about building where you’re most needed.

Eps 17 - What If Your Business Sells—and You Have Nothing Left?
Saturday May 24, 2025
Saturday May 24, 2025
In this episode, I talk about what happens after you build something successful. Inspired by Elon Musk’s recent shift, I reflect on the bigger question entrepreneurs face: what’s next when your business isn’t the only thing you’re meant to build? I share how I’m investing in purpose beyond profit—and what it might look like for you to find fulfillment after the exit, even if you never sell.
