EP. 140_Stop Quarterbacking Your Business with Todd Clarke

EP. 139_The Castle That Costs Less Than a Scottsdale House with Mike Stohler
My guest today bought a fourplex that should've been demolished, put eight rental properties on credit cards, and lost the whole thing before Google even existed. That's not the interesting part.
Mike Stohler is a retired Navy pilot and airline captain who rebuilt that first failure into 1,500 rental doors, then sold the whole portfolio to a group that closed the deal on a napkin at IHOP. That sale sent him into hotels — and then into Spain, where a partner showed him a four-star, 19-room boutique hotel and asked him to guess the price. Mike guessed $12–15 million, Sedona pric...
EP 138: The Wrench Story This EOS Implementer Uses to Explain Every Leadership Blind Spot with Marc Doig
A grown man once told a room full of strangers that a single moment fetching the wrong wrench for his dad convinced him, for the next 30 years, that he wasn't good enough. My guest this week, Marc Doig, tells that story to explain why the blind spots that run a business are almost never about strategy — they're personal, and they run deep.
Marc is a Professional EOS Implementer with Integrity Momentum Group, helping leadership teams get clear, get aligned, and get traction using the Entrepreneurial Operating System. Before EOS, he spent decades as an agency partner in th...
EP: 137, The People Crushing It With AI Aren't Who You Think with Dan Kite

Dan's built eight businesses — from Blockbuster video stores to co-working spaces — and for a while, he was convinced AI was going to crush small business owners like the ones who fill his space every day. Then something shifted.
We get into why the people getting the most out of AI r...
EP 136: How Bodybuilding Didn't Just Change His Body, It Saved His Life with Ben Lawson
Ben Lawson was 29, about six months off a bodybuilding show, and roughly as healthy as a person gets. Then he went to the ER because something felt off, and a doctor walked in and told him he had acute myeloid leukemia.
Eight days later, most of what he'd spent twelve years building was gone.
Ben founded Lift & Lead Co, and he's been on this show before. This time he came back with a different business and a much better reason for running it. We got into why he walked away from coaching entirely at the...
EP 135: The Box Full of Risk Every Developer Hands Their Contractor with Tarik Williams
When a developer hands you a $10 million project, they're not just handing you money — they're handing you a box full of risk and trusting you not to open it.
That's how Tarik Williams, President of TLW Construction, describes the job. Tarik's dad, Ted, founded TLW in the early 1980s building a project or two a year by hand. Tarik joined in 2002 ready to conquer the industry — and then the recession hit everything he touched. He calls it his Midas touch turning to dust, and it forced a complete rebuild of how TLW does business: less trade-show marketing, a lo...
