LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE IF YOU FEEL STUCK AT YOUR CURRENT LEVEL, EVEN THOUGH YOU REALLY WANT MORE

What if the thing holding your business back isn’t your marketing, your offers, or your strategy… but you?

This episode is for the founder who feels like they’ve been operating at the same level for too long. You’re putting in effort, you know what to do, but something just isn’t clicking.

We’re flipping the script from strategy to self, and breaking down how your mindset, fears, and internal patterns might be the very thing keeping you from your next level.

If you’ve been chasing growth but feel stuck in the same range, this will give you the clarity (and the call-out) you need to finally move forward.

In this episode:

•Why being stuck isn’t always a strategy problem

• The hidden ways founders hold themselves back without realizing it

• What it actually means to “become the person” your next level requires

• How your brain interprets growth as risk (and how that impacts your actions)

• Why discomfort is actually a signal that you’re growing

• The difference between having the playbook vs becoming the player

• How fear, overthinking, and hesitation kill momentum

• How to shorten the gap between decision and action

• The role of personal growth in scaling your business

• How your past experiences and core fears shape your current ceiling

• How to identify what you’re avoiding (and why that’s the key)

In this episode of The Business Growth Podcast, we’re diving into a real life case study of what it actually looks like to build a brand from the ground up and scale it into a nine figure business.

I’m joined by Dr. Brent Ridge, co-founder of Beekman 1802. A brand that has sold over 60 million bars of soap and built its success on something most businesses overlook: community and kindness.

We break down what it really takes to grow through different stages of business. From early scrappy days to mass market scale and how to think about building a value driven brand in today’s attention economy.

This conversation is part strategy, part philosophy, and part masterclass on how to stand out in even the most saturated industries. If you’re building a product based business, this episode will completely shift how you think about growth, differentiation, and long term brand loyalty.

In this episode:

•What it actually looked like to scale Beekman 1802 into a nine figure brand

• How to build a brand rooted in community, not just transactions

• Why “kindness” became their most powerful marketing strategy

• How to stand out in a saturated market

• The importance of storytelling and brand positioning in early growth

• How to capture attention in today’s 3-second attention economy

• What founders should focus on at different revenue stages (from $500K → $50M+)

• The reality of scaling through retail, distribution, and DTC

• Why TikTok Shop and live selling are massive opportunities right now

• The biggest bottlenecks founders hit as they scale

• How to build emotional connection that drives repeat customers

• The small brand details that create massive impact over time

• How to build a community that markets your business for you

LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE IF BUSINESS DOESN’T FEEL AS FUN AS WHEN YOU STARTED

In this episode of The Business Growth Podcast, we’re talking about a phase of business that no one really prepares you for: When your business is growing, but it stops feeling exciting.

So many founders hit a point where things are finally working… but instead of feeling better, it feels heavier. More responsibility, more pressure, more things on your plate and less excitement. Behind the scenes, you feel disconnected, uninspired, or like you accidentally created a job for yourself instead of the freedom you wanted.

In this episode, I’m breaking down why this happens, what’s actually causing it, and how to restructure your role so your business feels energizing again. Not draining.

In this episode:

• The real reason founders start feeling uninspired
• The mistake most people make when delegating
• The difference between draining tasks vs energizing work
• How to identify your true “zone of genius”
• Why hiring for your strengths can backfire
• What to delegate vs what to protect at all costs
• How to redesign your role as a founder
• The simple audit to figure out what’s draining you
• How to bring creativity and spark back into your business
• The importance of building a role you actually enjoy
• Why feeling uninspired doesn’t mean you built the wrong business
• How to rebuild your business in a way that feels aligned again
