  • Episode 39: Your Office Team Opens Doors
    This is a POWERHOUSE episode for anyone who is building out an administrative team for their company (in ANY industry).

    We kick off this episode with the Tip of the Week on *starting the thing* that you can’t get out of your mind.

    But then we dive DEEP into the history of our administrative team - how we found each player, what they bring to the table, how they mesh and move around our company like water, then share a little tough love for you, plus so much more.

    This episode is guaranteed to assist you no matter where you are at in building your company: just starting out, looking for your first administrative team member, or starting a second, third, fourth, or tenth location.

  • Episode 38: Your Money Has No Limit [part 4 of 4]
    Train with us on 10/14/22 in Cape Coral, Florida: https://bit.ly/3MSyGPw

    The Foundational Four is a familiar concept that Jacob has integrated into [business coaching group] GROW Comm. Over the course of four weeks, we have been breaking down each sector of the F4 framework: love, health, mind, and money.

    This is the fourth and FINAL episode in this series, all about MONEY.

    But first, we provide an update on Jacob’s motocross journey to Loretta Lynn’s Ranch (and how the universe has been saying “f*ck no” to training attempts). 
We’re taking off to the Southeast Regional Qualifiers this week, so we vulnerably dive into Jacob’s mental & physical state as he prepares.

    
This leads smoothly into the Tip of the Week: do you do the things you say you’re going to do? Even when you're scared? Even when the buzz wears off? If you don’t, then start. It will change the outcome of your life.

    To get straight into our money talk, Jacob shares HIS current financial targets for the next 90 days.

    Nicholle asks the question: “could a money goal be ‘how do I get out of the field?’” If so, how do we break it down?

    Jacob gives book recommendations on the abundance mindset surrounding money.

    Nicholle warns you to cull your network, plus we cover SO MUCH MORE in this episode.

  • Episode 37: I Am Unstoppable [part 3 of 4]
    Train with us on 10/14/22 in Cape Coral, Florida: https://bit.ly/3MSyGPw

    The Foundational Four is a familiar concept that Jacob has integrated into [business coaching group] GROW Comm. Over the course of four weeks, we are breaking down each sector of the F4 framework: love, health, mind, and money.

    Today is the third episode of the four part series, and we are talking all about your MIND: specifically, how to water your mind like a garden and strengthen your mindset to achieve success in your life, relationships, and business journey.

    We kick it off with the Tip of the Week (plus a CHALLENGE): what is your mantra? If you have one, is it fierce like Jacob’s… or a gentle reminder like Nicholle’s?

    Don’t have one? Create one. We’ll walk you through it.

    Later in this episode, we dissect your “story," the victim mentality (especially when leading employees), the Serenity Prayer, and much more.

  • Episode 36: From Near Death to 75 Hard [part 2 of 4]
    Train with us on 10/14/22 in Cape Coral, Florida: https://bit.ly/3MSyGPw

    The Foundational Four is a familiar concept that Jacob has integrated into [business coaching group] GROW Comm. Over the course of four weeks, we are breaking down each sector of the F4 framework: love, health, mind, and money.

    Today's episode is all about HEALTH. We go deep into Jacob's wellness (and illness) journey - from the "fittest he has ever been" to then falling into the pit of stress that so many new business owners experience, where health just simply takes a backseat (and gas station hot dogs start riding shotgun).

    As our first landscaping business was starting to grow, Jacob was knocked down and dragged out by a one-in-a-million illness that resulted in congestive heart failure. We tell the whole story from failed hippie witch remedies to his acceptance of possible death.

    But he lived! (Obviously.)

    Another big, upsetting event later, and Jacob was finally re-directed to health as a priority... which leads us here now, to the most "well" both of us have ever been - and our advice on how YOU can create a map (or goal plan) to experience success in this sector.

  • Episode 35: Love Is An Inside Job [part 1 of 4]
    Train with us on 10/14/22 in Cape Coral, Florida: https://bit.ly/3MSyGPw

    The Foundational Four is a familiar concept that Jacob has integrated into [business coaching group] GROW Comm. Over the next four weeks, we are breaking down each sector of the F4 framework: love, health, mind, and money.

    Today's episode is all about LOVE: specifically, both of our unique journeys with love (and hate). From “racing motocross and chasing girls” and being “hurt people hurting people” all the way to becoming two healed individuals who have done the WORK to create a thriving relationship that can serve an example for their children (and that feels like the early days of dating all over again nine years in)… we get DEEP in this episode.

    But first, we come out swinging with the Tip of the Week (that has NOTHING to do with love, racing motocross, *or* chasing girls). We answer the question: "what do you do when your lawn & landscape crews are on a roll of damaging equipment and/or clients' properties?"

    This is a good one, and you won't want to miss it.

  • Episode 34: Feel/Kill Imposter Syndrome
    Leveling up is a surefire way to feel like an imposter - like you don't belong (and everyone knows it) or that you just got lucky (even when you know how hard you've worked to get here).

    We are diving DEEP into "imposter syndrome" today: defining it, discussing who will *never* feel it, how to use it as fuel, and then how to overcome it so you aren't permanently sitting with feelings of unworthiness.

  • Episode 33: Work F*cking Harder
    Do you work as hard as Kid Rock and Kim Kardashian?

    The Tip of the Week (courtesy of Kid & Kim) leads right into the meat of this episode: our reinvention of the way prospective clients can book in-person or phone consultations for their landscaping projects to make their lives (and the lives of our admin) EASIER, plus our next step to transform the employment application & interview process at our landscaping company... and much more.

  • Episode 32: How to Reframe Negative Situations in Love & Business
    This is a FUN one. We kick off this episode by announcing our upcoming event in Cape Coral, Florida (snag tickets here: https://jacobgodar.com/training-day).

    Then we dive right into the Tip of the Week about connecting with intention. This means putting aside the excuses that you’re “too tired” for sex or “too busy” to meet friends out for dinner, and instead, prioritizing connection to maintain a well-rounded, entrepreneurial life.

    The bulk of the episode is what you came for though: how to reframe negative situations in love and business. We discuss the lessons learned in marriage counseling that assist in these “reframes,” then recall some of the WORST things to ever happen to us in business - and how we pivoted & reframed in order to thrive.

    Yep, we’re talking about getting sued, losing $40,000 on ONE landscaping project, dealing with a pandemic (and what we would do differently), closing down an entire business and MORE.

  • Episode 31: Radical Transparency
    Radical transparency is communicating and leading with total openness and directness, which allows the person or people on the receiving end to respond in a more meaningful way.

    In this episode, we talk about how radical transparency has created a much deeper connection in our relationship and transformed the culture at our landscaping company.

    Plus, in this week’s Tip of the Week, we challenge you to take a competitor to lunch. It's more fun than you think.

  • Episode 30: The Wedge Salad Episode
    Train with us on 10/14/22 in Cape Coral, Florida: https://bit.ly/3MSyGPw

    Ahhhh, the infamous "wedge salad."

    (If you don't know what we are talking about, you will soon.)

    In this episode, we talk about the lessons an 11-year-old episode of Modern Family has taught us - and how this running joke has also been a source of disappointment and frustration between us.

    BUT FIRST: in the Tip of the Week, we throw the old adage of "surrounding yourself with who you want to become" on its head and challenge YOU to "become who you want to be around" instead.
