Episode #235: Shawn Shewchuk
Shawn Shewchuk, Change Your Results — Turning Fear Into Fuel Shawn Shewchuk is “THE Productivity Speaker” and a results-driven advisor to high achievers. With 28+ years in the trenches, 43 companies launched, and two bestselling books, he helps leaders trade busywork for outcomes and build businesses that run on systems—not stress. If you’ve ever felt stuck firefighting instead of scaling, Shawn’s mindset-first, results-always approach will hit home. Why he matters: Shawn’s philosophy is simple and surgical: fear lives only in your head, and progress starts the moment you make an irrevocable decision. From breaking audacious goals into hourly actions to designing teams for peak productivity, he shows entrepreneurs how to create their own economy—on purpose. Key Takeaways: Fear is mental, not material. Move from your head to your heart, make one decisive first step, and walk through the “paper-mâché” terror barrier. Results over titles. “Coach” is meaningless without measurable outcomes. Everything—business, career, relationships—goes on the table to remove hidden anchors. Decisions drive destiny. Success is the compounding effect of conscious choices; default mode equals drift. Know where you’re going, then reverse-engineer yearly → monthly → daily → hourly actions. Productivity is precision. It’s any action that moves you toward your goal. One extra hour of high-productivity per person, per day, can transform the bottom line. Lead people, design systems. Put players in roles where they win, cross-train for context, and build a company that functions if you step away for 90 days.

Episode #227: Ben Nizri – Congruent Clarity
Ben Nizri, Congruent Clarity — Turning Small Business Plateaus into Scalable Systems Ben Nizri is a Business Breakthrough Strategist and Exit Planning Advisor behind Congruent Clarity. Born in Azerbaijan, raised in Israel (including eight years in the Air Force), and now based in Winnipeg, Canada, Ben brings a systems-first lens—quality assurance, operations, and certified lead auditing—to help small businesses break through growth ceilings. He matters because he shows founders how to shift from “more of the same” growth to true scalability, with pricing, process, and mindset working in sync. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COHYqSaJAug 5 Key Takeaways from this Episode: Growth ≠ Scale: Growth adds resources linearly; scalability breaks the link between resources and results by building repeatable systems. Fix the offer before the ads: Doubling leads without capacity or clean processes just multiplies unhappy customers and margin mistakes. Price for profit: Small increases flow straight to the bottom line; discounting comes directly off it. Compete on value—not price. Delegate to scale: Founders stall when they try to run everything themselves. Effective delegation and structure beat heroics. Mindset + discipline beat talent: Skills can be learned. Discipline, clear “why,” and consistent action outpace natural talent over time.

Episode #220: Joel Klein – Fizyx Investment Group
Joel Klein, Fizyx Investment Group — Finding Exponential Winners & Leveling Up Mindset Joel Klein is the award-winning portfolio manager behind Fizyx Investment Group, known for spotting market leaders early and compounding results over decades. Mentored by William O’Neil and forged by real-world adversity, Joel blends deep market research with battle-tested mindset practices. If you care about building wealth and resilience, this episode is your playbook. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GVBPnk1YKtg Top 5 Takeaways from the Episode: Study the roots, not just the fruit. Don’t chase “the next Tesla”; understand why markets move, build rules from the data, and act with discipline. Exponential focus. Fizyx hunts for stocks compounding ~40%+ over sustained periods—aiming to build portfolios exclusively from true leaders (think Apple, Google, Tesla). Asymmetric risk. Define outcomes before you act: Joel targets ~3:1 reward-to-risk (e.g., +20% upside vs. −7% stop) so he doesn’t need a 50% win rate to win big. Timing matters. In tough, choppy markets, he prefers stalking and patience; for most investors, dollar-cost averaging into indexes remains a smart long-game. Mindset is a multiplier. Leveling up your business (or investing) demands leveling up your mindset—embrace discomfort, learn from setbacks, and build a diverse team aligned to one clear goal.
