Long over due I have Hanna Layton of Thrive. "Sustainable Business" is not the boogie man politicians make it out to be. We talk common sense solutions, and collaboration. She also goes into detail about the 10 week program for Veterans she has partnered with the City of Phoenix to start local sustainable community businesses. 

In life and in business you will have setbacks. You have to set goals and take your shots. Like Gretzky says "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take". When you take that shot you may miss. You have to evaluate what happened, and adjust fire. It doesn't mean don't take the shot because it is hard, "No risk it no biscuit" like Coach Arians says, you have to or your business will fail for sure. 

Sir Richard Branson got it right, take care of the employees and they will take care of the customers. I have taken my talents to Pacific Premier Bank. Hire the right people and train them, share your vision, PAY THEM, and your turnover will be zero. 

Sierra and I both run podcast, Business Salesmanship The Art of Selling Your Business and HTD. We both wanted to interview each other, so we decided to do it TOGTHER! We interviewed each other on one live recording. We didn't know if it would be a train wreck, or off the chains, but we knew we would have fun and just went for it! Stay tuned, stay focused, STAY MOTIVATED 

We have Robert Heidt Pres & CEO of the Glendale Chamber and MAC on to talk about pushing through the pandemic, staying active in our community and outreach, and what the vision is moving forward. Robert is a USAF Security Police Veteran as well. 

We are back and sounding better. Stay Tuned, Stay Focused, STAY MOTIVATED! Interviews coming up Robert Heidt Pres Glendale Chamber Glendale MAC and Sierra Wolfe of Business Salesmanship podcast. 

We may be having audio problems, but the message is getting out there! I am now working with Glendale and Peoria MAC, and have been selected to work with Congresswomen Lesko for her committee also. Please email me at [email protected] with anything you want addressed or if I can get you help from her office. 

This show may be microphone therapy for myself, but I hope it reaches someone out there who is frustrated and wants to keep moving forward because quitting is NOT an option. Like the Jimmy V speech (yes I remember seeing it live, I'm old) it inspired me then, and it still does now, NEVER GIVE UP. Also don't sell out or water it down either, STAY TRUE TO YOU! 

Everyday we face Challenges & Choices. Do we fold, or stand strong. Do we cower or do we FIGHT! Sometimes you stand at the base of the mountain and say "Let's get it" and sometimes you say "FUCK", but either way, one hand hold and one foothold at a time you start the climb. Frederick Douglas said "If there is no struggle , there is no progress."  and Denzel said "Goals without hard work are just dreams". The challenge is in front of you, but what will your choice be?
