On today’s episode, we explore the world of sales data and metrics and how we should view them. Specifically, diving into the two main categories: leading metrics and lagging metrics. Understanding this distinction is key to taking control of your business's financial future.

This approach not only helps clarify your business's income streams but also enables you to identify growth opportunities and make informed decisions to boost your profitability.

In this episode, we cover:

• The power of proactive marketing efforts to the reality check of hard sales revenue

On today’s episode, I am joined by my best friend and rural relationship guide, Terryn Drieling. Terryn shares the power of self-awareness and how the principles of stockmanship can enlighten our understanding of human communication. We also dive into how the Enneagram uncovers our own motivations and expedites self-awareness.

Terryn Drieling is a Rural Relationship Guide who lives and works on a large ranch in the Sandhills of Nebraska with her husband and their three kids. She believes the stockmanship principle of good movement applies no matter what species we're interacting with. Over the past several years, she’s taken what she knows about that principle, studied the Enneagram, read countless books on brain science, psychology, generational trauma, and communication. Using what she’s learned, Terryn has designed programs to help others draw good movement and navigate the highs and lows of marriage, family dynamics, and friendships in rural America.

In this episode,we cover:

• How good movement, a core stockmanship principle emphasizing low-stress cattle handling, is analogous to effective human communication
• What the Enneagram is and how we can apply it to areas like money mindset and financial decision-making
• The critical role of mindset in financial conversations
• The value of recognizing personal limitations and the benefits of seeking help to make informed decisions and move forward in both personal and business contexts
