The Business Strategist With Adam Strong

How I'd Build a One Person Business That Runs Without Me (If I Started Over)

Adam Strong — Thu, 16 Apr 2026 04:00:00 GMT

8 years ago I packed up my life in the UK and moved to Sweden to start a family. I thought my business would run without me. It didn't. Everything fell apart and it forced me to confront something most founders never want to admit.

In this episode I'm getting brutally honest about what actually happened, the mindset shifts that changed everything and the three things I'd do differently if I was starting from scratch tomorrow.

In this episode I cover:

Why moving countries destroyed the business I thought I'd built
The two mindset shifts that finally got me unstuck
What nobody in the industry warns you about
The one question that tells you exactly where your business stands right now

Listen to this episode if:

You're making every decision in your business and it's eating you alive
You've ever wondered whether your business could survive without you
You want to know the difference between a one person business and a one person prison

I built a six figure business that looked great on paper but nearly broke me behind the scenes. This is the real story and the blueprint I wish someone had given me years ago.

The 5 Lies Business Owners Tell Themselves Before They Try to Sell

Adam Strong — Thu, 09 Apr 2026 03:30:00 GMT

70% of her revenue was tied to one person. The buyer walked away.

I sat across the table from a founder a few months ago. Seven-figure business, great team, 25 years of graft. Within 20 minutes of looking under the hood, I had to tell her the business was essentially worthless to a buyer. Not because the numbers were bad — because she was the business.

When the buyer dug into due diligence, they discovered 75% of the revenue was tied to her personal relationships. The deal collapsed. And the worst part? She had no idea — because she'd been telling herself the same five lies I hear from almost every founder I work with.

In this episode I break down all five, using real examples from my advisory work. I walk through the founder revenue test, the 90-day vanish test, and why your expertise might actually be your biggest liability when a buyer comes knocking.

I also share why the founders who build truly sellable businesses always tell me the same thing afterwards — "I wish I'd done this five years ago." Not because they wanted to sell sooner, but because the business became so much better the moment they stopped being the bottleneck.

If even one of these lies sounds familiar, you've got work to do before you go anywhere near an exit.

How Purpose Drives Profit and Exit Value

Adam Strong — Thu, 02 Apr 2026 04:00:00 GMT

Blockbuster asked how do we make more money. Netflix asked how do we give people better entertainment. One question built an empire. The other killed one. So which question is your business asking right now?

In this episode I sit down with Lisa Earle McLeod, the woman who literally wrote the book on purpose driven business. She's worked with Google, Hilton and some of the smartest founders on the planet and what she told me completely flipped how I think about profit, purpose and why so many business owners end up stuck on a hamster wheel they built themselves.

We get into the real reason businesses get commoditised, why your proposals aren't landing the fees you deserve and what separates founders who exit rich from those who just burn out.

Five reasons to listen

Understand why purpose and profit aren't two separate things and why treating them that way is costing you money
How Hilton used one sentence from their founder to become the number one workplace in hospitality and smash profit records at the same time
You'll hear the three questions every founder needs to ask this week to uncover a purpose that actually drives revenue
Why most business owners have built themselves a glorified job and what to do if that's you right now
Lisa coaches me live and calls out the one thing missing from how I talk about my own business and how it can apply in yours.

Your Identity Is Your Last Competitive Advantage

Adam Strong — Thu, 26 Mar 2026 05:00:00 GMT

What if the real reason your business is stalling has nothing to do with your strategy?

I sat down with Michael King, executive coach, keynote speaker and recording artist with over 100 published songs. The leaders he works with, the ones hitting burnout, losing sales and watching their teams fall apart, they all share the same root problem. And it's not what you think.

Michael has spent close to 20 years coaching high performing entrepreneurs and top level executives, and he's built a framework called the TEAMS Method that flips conventional leadership advice on its head.

In this episode he walks me through his Identity Matrix, explains why your strategy will never work without clarity on who you actually are, and reveals how he combines original music and cinematic film to unlock breakthroughs in the boardroom.

Five reasons you need to listen to this episode:

Learn why 80% of leaders are starting their day in completely the wrong place
Discover the one question that exposes whether you have an identity problem or an energy problem
Get a full walkthrough of the TEAMS Method and how to apply it this week
Find out why feelings come before awareness and why that order matters for lasting change
Hear the rule Michael follows every single day to protect himself from burning out

The Hidden Cost of Average: How to Build a Team That Scales Without Burning Out

Adam Strong — Thu, 07 Aug 2025 05:00:00 GMT

What if your obsession with sales, funding, or AI isn't what's holding back your scale-up—what if it's your people strategy that's silently sabotaging your growth? As someone who's spent decades helping founders scale smart, I know how tempting it is to chase the next shiny penny: more sales, more funding, more tech. But after my conversation with today's guest, Dr. Cynthia Bentzen-Mercer—a USA Today best-selling author and a world-class executive coach—I realised that most founders underestimate their biggest growth engine: their people. Cynthia opened my eyes to what she calls 'human capital investment,' a strategic approach that treats your talent like your most important asset. In this powerful episode, Dr. Cynthia Bentzen-Mercer breaks down the myths around talent management and explains how leaders often sabotage their businesses by treating talent as an expense rather than an investment. We dive deep into practical frameworks for aligning your team with your business goals, reveal how to spot hidden high performers, and explore how predictive assessments can transform your hiring and development processes. If you want to avoid the costly mistakes most founders make and turn your talent into your competitive advantage—this episode is a must-listen. Let’s be real — if you’re drowning in day-to-day crap, you’ll never scale or exit. The Exit Playbook is your ticket out of the chaos.

The LinkedIn Top Voice Badge Is A Lie (Here's What Actually Works)

Adam Strong — Thu, 26 Feb 2026 04:00:00 GMT

The LinkedIn Top Voice badge is the most addictive distraction on the platform. The real question is how much time, energy and opportunity have you already lost chasing it? I held the LinkedIn Top Voice badge for over two years and recently lost it. My first reaction? It felt like my credibility had been stripped away overnight. But then something unexpected happened. My business grew. Better clients, more conversations, more revenue. So I started asking myself whether being part of the top voice programme had any real benefits at all. In this episode I pull back the curtain on the biggest myth in LinkedIn marketing and share exactly what I've been doing instead to turn organic content into real business growth. Five Takeaways Learn why the LinkedIn Top Voice badge attracts cold spammers far more than it attracts your ideal clients Discover how LinkedIn's new 360 Brew AI system actually works and how to use it to get miles ahead of the badge chasers Improve your content strategy with a proven framework covering which days to post, how often and why quality will always beat quantity Understand how staying in your lane and speaking directly to a specific pain point converts far better than broadcasting to a wide audience Learn how to split test your content using real metrics to identify exactly what is driving revenue and what to cut immediately Enjoy the show?

The Human Edge in an AI World

Adam Strong — Thu, 27 Nov 2025 05:00:00 GMT

What is the real competitive advantage for founders of small and medium sized businesses right now, smarter AI or leaders who know how to be deeply human. In this episode, I sit down with executive coach and former COO Chris March to explore the human edge in an AI world and why treating AI as a shortcut instead of a multiplier is quietly damaging trust, culture and credibility in smaller businesses. If you are a founder or owner of an SME leaning into AI but worried about losing the soul of your business, this conversation is for you. Here is what we cover Why blaming layoffs on AI is backfiring and how that story destroys trust even faster inside small teams How generic AI generated content weakens your authority as a founder and what to do instead if you want real connection with prospects The human edge for SMEs, using judgement, experience, emotional intelligence and real stories as a moat that big companies cannot copy Practical ways to use AI as a force multiplier rather than a crutch so you can step out of low value tasks and back into leading the business Three key principles for SME founders who want to use AI while protecting trust through education, transparency and simple governance Take the ‘Exit readiness assessment’ and find out the gaps of what you need to do to plan your exit strategy confidently.

Adam Strong — Thu, 19 Feb 2026 05:00:00 GMT

Les Evans is a former CEO of a 9 figure investment fund, strategic advisor and author of ‘Uncopyable’.

How To Break Stagnation and Drive Fast Growth

Adam Strong — Thu, 22 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMT

Let’s be real for a second: Law school, the accounting bodies, the professional exams they never actually taught you how to run a business. They taught you how to be a technician. Now, you’re stuck in the trading time for money trap, thinking that being hardworking and professional gives you an edge over the competition. It doesn't. That’s just the baseline. In 2026, relying on those standards is the quickest way to get left behind. I joined Dan Warburton to talk about the shift from being a late-stage service provider to an early-stage strategic partner. We’re moving past the ego and getting into why your clients really buy from you—and it’s probably not what you think. In this chat, we cover: The Holiday Test: Why your inability to let go is capping your revenue and killing your culture. Standards vs. USPs: Why telling people you're "punctual" is a waste of breath (and what to say instead). The Ferrari Specialist: How to stop being a "generalist garage" and become the only logical choice for your ideal client. Dinner, Drinks, and Real Data: My simple way to get your best clients to hand you your unfair advantage on a silver platter before the weekend hits. AI vs. The Clock: Why billing by the hour is a losing game when tech can do your 8-hour task in 20 minutes. If you’re tired of staying stuck, this is for you.

We explored the brutal truth about losing your business identity, why even the most successful founders feel like they're going crazy during transitions, and the battle-tested framework she developed from the trenches of corporate acquisitions. This conversation revealed the exact emotional stages you’ll face post-exit and gave you the strategic playbook to rebuild your identity before a crisis hits. If your planning an exit in the next 2-5 years, this is a must listen.

The 24 Year Old Who Built a £1M LinkedIn Agency From £18

Adam Strong — Thu, 12 Mar 2026 05:00:00 GMT

What if two broke brothers with just £18 between them could build a multi-million pound agency in under three years, almost entirely through LinkedIn? I sat down with Niall Ratcliffe, 24, who along with his brother Morgan did exactly that, starting from a spare room in Burnley with no investors, no fancy degree and no safety net. In this episode Niall pulls back the curtain on the exact LinkedIn strategies the fastest growing B2B brands in Europe are quietly using behind the scenes, and nobody is talking about online. We also do a live profile roast, and yes, my own LinkedIn takes a few hits along the way. Five reasons to listen: Niall reveals the three step revenue system that took his agency from £18 to a six figure run rate in just 11 days, and why most people are treating LinkedIn like the wrong platform entirely He breaks down the secret shift happening inside B2B marketing right now, including how leading companies are using AI and automation to steal competitor leads and trigger conversations at exactly the right moment Learn why posting more content does not mean earning more leads, and how to split your strategy between growth content and nurture content to actually drive revenue Niall shares the single highest converting LinkedIn message his agency has ever sent, and it is far simpler than anyone expects The live LinkedIn profile roast gives listeners a rare, unfiltered look at what a top agency founder would fix first on any profile, from banners and headlines to the most underused piece of prime real estate on the platform.

The Emotional Driver Playbook: 5 Steps to Validate Your Offer & Create a 3-Year Waitlist

Adam Strong — Thu, 23 Oct 2025 05:41:00 GMT

Stop launching to crickets. What if the secret to a 7-figure launch isn't your product, but a hidden emotional driver you've completely missed? I'm sharing the 5-step framework that creates the demand and not the desperation. What if you knew precisely what makes your ideal client buy... before you even built the product? It all comes down to their hidden fears, their biggest frustrations, and their secret aspirations. Most entrepreneurs sell the solution; the smartest ones sell a way out of the pain. In this episode, I reveal the 5-step launch process that a $1B razor company and the world's most famous electric car brand used to create demand from thin air. This is the difference between guessing what works and launching with absolute certainty. How to find your customer's 'buy button': Learn to uncover the real psychological drivers (the fears and frustrations) that control your customer's wallet. The $1B razor secret: Discover how one company disrupted an entire industry by identifying a single, universal frustration their competitors ignored. The pre-launch playbook: I'll explain how an iconic CEO pre-sold hundreds of thousands of products before the factory was even built, creating a 3-year waitlist. The perceived value pricing trick: Stop trading time for money. Learn the 4-part pricing strategy that lets you charge more while making customers feel like they got a bargain. How to build an 'unbeatable offer: Find out how strategic partnerships can instantly elevate your product's status and make it the only logical choice in your market.

Growing 160K followers with AI content strategy and personal branding

Adam Strong — Thu, 16 Oct 2025 05:00:00 GMT

What if the secret to building a audience of over 160,000 followers wasn't about grinding out content for 10 hours a day but instead it was about finding the 20% of AI prompts that generate 80% of the results, effectively creating an artificial version of yourself to do the heavy lifting? I brought on Charlie Hills a LinkedIn growth strategist that leverages AI tools to create an authentic personal brand. Charlie has over 160k+ followers on LinkedIn and turns audiences into opportunities. We break down why context engineering now beats prompt engineering, how to build a lightweight AI version of you that keeps your voice and judgement, and where AI agents actually make sense (and where humans still win). Charlie shares the visual tactics (carousels/cheat sheets) and we finish with a live audit of my LinkedIn profile so you can duplicate the same playbook for your own profile.

Archetypal Wisdom for Founders: The Operating System Behind Scale

Adam Strong — Thu, 17 Jul 2025 04:00:00 GMT

I had no idea the first episode with Rory Kilmartin would explode the way it did — it quickly became one of the most downloaded shows we’ve released for a while. So I brought him back. This time, we go even deeper into the archetypal patterns shaping how we lead, build teams, and scale businesses. We unpack why communication breaks down, why trust erodes, and why even the best strategy won’t work if your human operating system is out of sync. If you’ve ever felt friction with your team, struggled to hire the right people, or hit a wall trying to scale or exit — this episode will shift something. It did for me. Rory Kilmartin is a researcher, philosopher, and creator of the Human Operating System — a framework that helps leaders understand the deep archetypal patterns driving behaviour, conflict, and performance. His work has changed how I see leadership, and I think it will do the same for you. Let’s be real — if you’re drowning in day-to-day crap, you’ll never scale or exit.

Adam Strong — Thu, 19 Jun 2025 05:00:00 GMT

Most founders obsess over revenue, product, and performance. But no one talks about what happens when the pressure breaks you. This episode is that conversation. In this episode of The Business Strategist, I sit down with Luke Tobin, a three-time exited founder, award-winning entrepreneur, and digital marketing expert turned investor. We go beyond the business playbook and dive deep into the mental and emotional resilience it takes to lead through chaos, recover from failure, and build with an exit in mind. From losing £26K in his 20s to scaling and selling his agency for a life-changing sum, Luke opens up about identity crises, burnout, panic attacks, and the wake-up calls that reshaped how he leads—and lives. If you're building to sell, wrestling with pressure, or wondering what life looks like after the exit, this is the real talk most founders never hear.

Strategic Shifts for Successful Exits

Adam Strong — Thu, 17 Apr 2025 04:00:00 GMT

What If Your Success Habits Are Now Holding You Back? You’ve built something from the ground up—but what if the very traits that made you a successful founder are now the biggest blockers to scaling and exiting? In this episode, I speak with John Spence, one of the world’s leading authorities on business and leadership. Named by the American Management Association as one of America’s top 50 leaders to watch—alongside the likes of Larry Page and Jeff Bezos—John became CEO of the Rockefeller Foundation at just 26 and has since advised both Fortune 10 giants and small, fast-growth businesses across the globe. I’ve known John for years, and every time we speak, I’m reminded just how deeply he understands what makes a business thrive—or fail. This conversation was rich in insight, challenge, and practical strategy. We covered: The mental traps founders fall into when transitioning from startup to scale-up The psychological roadblocks that sabotage even the most talented leaders Why reflection, emotional intelligence, and adaptability are now non-negotiables Learn how to scale and exit faster by applying to join our waitlist for our next cohort to the game changers inner circle business mastermind go to https://bit.ly/business-mastermind-waitlist for more info 5 Key Takeaways from the Episode: Most businesses plateau due to a mix of Ignorance, Indifference, Inflexibility and Inconsistency. Recognising which one you're operating in is key to moving forward. The habits that serve you as a founder can become liabilities as a leader. Without shifting your mindset, you risk becoming the bottleneck. Founders who successfully scale are the ones who learn to hire well and step back. Running a £1M company and a £50M company requires completely different skill sets. Emotional intelligence (EQ) and adaptability (AQ) often outweigh technical expertise in long-term leadership success. The best leaders take full ownership of their mistakes—and are brave enough to ask for help.

Revive Revenue: Secrets to Client Growth

Adam Strong — Thu, 20 Jun 2024 05:00:00 GMT

Are you an established business and struggling to reignite your sales and marketing? In this episode, Adam Strong shares five innovative strategies to reignite sales and marketing efforts and win back lost clients using the ROSE method, which stands for research, offer, showcase and explore. Takeaways Conduct research by interviewing existing clients to understand why they chose your company and how your product or service solves their problems. Reach out to clients who said no and find out why they didn't choose your company, and use that feedback to improve your offers. Focus on the benefits of your offers rather than the features, and consider creating different packages with varying levels of service. Showcase your offers through brochures or other sales aids to guide clients through the benefits and value you provide. Explore collaboration opportunities by creating a Dream 100 list of potential partners who have access to your target market.

Authority and likability play a role in influencing others, and public speaking can enhance authority. Creating a sense of scarcity and unity can increase the perceived value and desirability of a product or service.

If you want to make passive income you have to be a singer! That’s what I used to think until I met my good friend Lisa Johnson Lisa is a Global Business Strategist and best selling author who makes 90% of her money through passive or semi-passive income streams. Her background in overcoming obstacles has helped mould her into a bold, straight-talking and insightful strategist, who is never afraid to be an authentic and outspoken truth teller. She took herself from £30,000 in debt to a successful entrepreneur making millions and helping thousands of people in just five years. Lisa strongly believes that business is not difficult, rather it is just people who make it difficult. Her mantra has always been “I’m nothing special” so she strongly believes that if she can achieve success, so can anyone else, with the right combination of good advice, the right attitude and self belief, purely by monetising the knowledge that they already possess. She has over 60,000 followers across social media and a number one business podcast, Making Money Online which has been listened to across 119 countries and has over 250,000 downloads to date. Her debut book “Make Money Online” was a Sunday Times bestseller and is available globally. She has spoken on the BBC’s Women’s Hour and has been featured in national newspapers and magazines including The Telegraph, Psychologies, The Guardian and Fast Company. A feature on Lisa in Forbes magazine garnered over a quarter of a million views in one week.

Don't Be Afraid Of Being Judged By Others

Adam Strong — Tue, 15 Sep 2020 05:00:00 GMT

This week’s episode is with James Roberts who is a former Paralympic Athlete competing in rowing and wheelchair basketball. James was born with a congenital disability called femoral dysplasia where he had no femur bone. Despite this, he participated in full able body sports before transitioning to the Paralympics where he was an elite competitor representing Great Britain in several World Championships and the Paralympics in 2008 (Beijing) and 2012 (London). James struggled to come to terms with his disability as a teenager, whereby in the hot spring and summer months in high school, he wouldn’t wear shorts. It wasn’t until it dawned on him that the only person this was affecting was himself, so something had to change. But in all these circumstances, he found a way of overcoming these hurdles. He believes it is this mindset that set me up to win in later life and go on to represent his country at four World Championships amongst others as well as two Paralympics. James is now an entrepreneur and online fitness and nutrition coach. In this show we cover: The struggles of self imagery that James faced having a disability when growing up How your limiting beliefs can affect your mindset and confidence The importance of creating a support system Athletes are masters of getting in the zone, what the zone means and how James practiced to get into the zone for success.

The HR Lie Founders Keep Buying That Stalls Growth

Adam Strong — Thu, 29 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMT

Most founders are wasting a fortune on tools promising to shift the needle but instead it is quietly killing their growth. This episode exposes why personality testing, competency models, and culture fit interviews often fail and what to replace them with if you want a team that actually delivers. In this episode, I sit down with Barry Wolfe, an HR veteran with 30 years in the trenches helping founders and CEOs solve the people problems that stall growth. We go beyond generic HR and get into why businesses keep hiring great people who still do not perform, why teams break at certain revenue ceilings, and how leaders accidentally become the bottleneck. Barry shares his value centric leadership approach, showing how to define roles by outcomes, improve hiring interviews, and align performance to the results that drive business growth. If you want to build a high performing team, improve employee retention, and scale without everything running through you, this conversation will challenge how you think about talent management. Five takeaways: why you should listen Why great CVs and strong interviews still fail and the real reason good people do not work out after 6 to 8 months The most expensive hiring mistake founders and CEOs make and why smart leaders keep repeating it The one thing to define before the interview starts: the 3 to 5 value added deliverables you need in the first 12 months How to shift from managing actions to rewarding outcomes so roles are defined by what people deliver and performance becomes measurable The first document to create if you are the bottleneck: define your key value drivers and business results so the whole team aligns and execution stops running through you. Let’s be real — if you’re drowning in day-to-day crap, you’ll never scale or exit. Learn how to stop being your own bottleneck and start leading like a boss.

More Connected, More Lonely: The Leadership Crisis No One's Talking About

Adam Strong — Thu, 12 Feb 2026 05:00:00 GMT

Why are we buried in Slack messages and back-to-back Zooms but feeling lonelier than ever? Dr. Michelle K. Johnston just co-wrote a book with Marshall Goldsmith that exposes the hidden crisis destroying teams—and it starts with you. Dr. Michelle K. Johnston's back with a warning: we're going down a dark path. She just co-wrote The Seismic Shift in You with legendary executive coach Marshall Goldsmith, and they reckon most leaders are sleepwalking into disaster. This isn't about work-life balance or time management. It's about why your best people are quietly quitting, why you're knackered despite smashing targets, and why technology is making us lonelier whilst pretending to connect us. 5 Reasons to Listen The disconnection epidemic - why scrolling hits dopamine but starves you of oxytocin (and why that's making you physically ill) The "what vs who" trap - how achievement addiction leads to premature death, heart disease, and leaders who feel empty at the top The 7 necessary shifts - including the one that makes successful executives defensive because it threatens their entire identity Real cost of disconnection - the executive whose doctor said he'd die young, and why his company's about to lose him to burnout Practical tools for tomorrow - connection walks, calendar audits, and why your Friday afternoon Zoom meetings are killing creativity Enjoy the show?

Investor Insights - the secret to fast funding!

Adam Strong — Thu, 30 Jan 2025 06:00:00 GMT

🚀 Struggling to raise capital while scaling your business? You’re not alone. Most founders follow outdated fundraising advice and that’s why they fail. Today, investor and entrepreneur Callum Laing joins Adam to reveal how the smartest founders attract investment, not chase it. Forget cold pitches and Shark Tank-style interrogations—this episode will reframe everything you thought you knew about raising money. Most founders fundraise the wrong way—pitching cold, chasing investors, and hoping for a yes. But the real game is about attracting investment, not begging for it. In this episode, Adam and Callum Laing—an investor who has raised tens of millions and helped over 100 companies go public—break down why traditional fundraising advice is broken. Learn how the best founders build investor relationships before they need capital, why trust matters more than pitch decks, and how to flip the script so investors come to you. 🚀 If you're ready to raise capital the smart way, this episode is a must-listen. Why You Should Listen: ✔️ The #1 mistake founders make when seeking investment—and how to avoid it. ✔️ How to become the founder investors WANT to fund (hint: it's not about your pitch deck). ✔️ The hidden reality of venture capital vs. family offices—and why most VCs lose money. ✔️ Why raising capital should be your last resort—not your first move. ✔️ How to de-risk your business and make investment decisions without desperation. Key Takeaways: Investors don’t want to be pitched. They want to find opportunities through trusted networks. Cold outreach is a waste of time. The best deals happen through warm introductions. Raising money doesn’t solve all problems. Often, a lack of funding forces better decisions. If you’re desperate for money, you’ve already lost leverage. Build relationships before you need them. Your personal brand is an investment magnet. Investors back founders they see as credible.

10 common pitfalls when scaling a business

Adam Strong — Thu, 22 May 2025 05:51:00 GMT

Want to scale your business but afraid you’ll make costly mistakes? In this episode of The Business Strategist, I pull back the curtain on the 10 most common pitfalls that ambush founders on the road to rapid growth — and share the proven fixes I use with my own clients. You’ll hear: Why relying on a single revenue stream is a trap, and how to add new ones without blowing up your workload. How my simple stop doing list and a dash of smart outsourcing help you reclaim hours for high-value work. The art of layering product tiers so you capture premium buyers and price-sensitive prospects alike. My favourite forever assets (free tools, partnerships, quizzes) that turn strangers into raving fans. The essential combination of clear strategy, efficient processes, and decisive leadership that separates sustainable scale from chaotic churn. I’ll also walk you through a real-world case study — how I helped one founder jump from £170k to a £500k exit in under 12 months — so you can see these ideas in action.

Your Bulletproof Life: Five Immutable Laws To Thrive On Life's Battlefields

Adam Strong — Tue, 20 Oct 2020 05:00:00 GMT

This week’s episode is with Dr Steve Taubman who is a hypnotist, mindfulness expert and a sought after corporate trainer. Dr. Steve’s early years were plagued by crippling anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. Despite graduating valedictorian from one of the nation’s top chiropractic colleges and running a thriving practice, Dr. Steve found that his outer success did little to calm his inner turmoil. Thus began a thirty-year journey to understand the root of happiness. His exploration of Western psychotherapy, Eastern teachings of mindfulness, hypnosis, and the science of prosperity provided profound insight into the universal nature and cause of suffering; the subconscious mind… which ultimately led to the creation of his successful UnHypnosis system and bestselling book. Blending his teachings with a long time passion for humour and magic, Dr. Steve developed a series of insightful, fun presentations about mastering the subconscious mind to get people in a state of action. In this show we cover: What are mental blockages and how to become consciously aware of them Why is it some business leaders and entrepreneurs thrive under pressure whereas others cannot How to rewire your brain to unlock blockages The benefits of hypnosis and how you can treat yourself Identify your pet peeves and deal with them to create inner peace and harmony Follow him on Facebook: www.facebook.com/drstevetaubman Connect with him on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevetaubman Claim the first free chapter of ‘Unhypnosis': www.bestofsteve.com This show is hosted by Ultra-High Personal Productivity Authority, Business Strategist, Former Elite Athlete, Author and Public Speaker.

The Productivity Myth Keeping You Trapped

Adam Strong — Thu, 04 Sep 2025 05:00:00 GMT

What if time isn’t something you manage, but something you design—a tool that can multiply freedom, scale your business, and even reshape your legacy? Most entrepreneurs treat time like a relentless enemy—constantly running out, always slipping away. But what if that belief is costing you impact, growth, and freedom? In this episode, I sit down with John Coyle—Olympic silver medalist, 5x TEDx speaker, professor, and leading expert on the psychology and neuroscience of time. We dive into the fascinating world of Chronos and Kairos—two radically different ways of experiencing time—and uncover how founders can shift from operator mode to visionary leadership. John shares why the value of time has nothing to do with its duration, how to trade money for time, and the simple shifts that help you create unforgettable Kairos moments in business and life. He even puts me in the coaching hot seat—expect some “aha” moments along the way! If you’ve ever felt like time is controlling you, this conversation will completely reframe how you scale, exit, and design a life of freedom. Want to exit your business but unsure where to start?

The Relationship Recession: Why “Fine” is Killing Your Company Valuation

Adam Strong — Thu, 15 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMT

Fine is the most expensive word in your business. When your team tells you they’re fine, they aren’t being polite. They’re checking out. We’re in a Relationship Recession, and it’s the silent tax stripping productivity, slowing decisions, and shaving value off your company from the inside. In this episode, I sit down with Morag Barrett, leadership expert, member of the Marshall Goldsmith 100 Coaches, and the person CEOs call when trust is breaking and performance is slipping. Morag explains why transactional leadership fuels burnout, how digital noise has replaced real connection, and what to do about it if you want a high trust culture that scales. If your engagement is dipping or your business is being impacted by quiet quitting, this is the episode for you. We discuss: How to spot the “I’m fine” trap before turnover hits How to identify allies, rivals, and hidden adversaries inside the Relationship Ecosystem How to use a 60 second pulse check to measure trust fast How to schedule spontaneity so remote teams feel like a community How to shift from transactional to transformational leadership without more meetings Want to exit your business but unsure where to start?

Becoming Flawsome

Adam Strong — Thu, 13 Jul 2023 05:00:00 GMT

Kristina Mand-Lakhiani is an international speaker, entrepreneur, artist, philanthropist, and mother of 2 kids. As a co-founder of Mindvalley, a leading publisher in the personal growth industry, Kristina dedicated the last 20 years of her career to personal transformation learning from teachers like Michael Beckwith, Bob Proctor, Lisa Nichols, and many more. She started her career in a government office in her native Estonia and, by her mid-20s, achieved a level of success mostly known to male politicians at the end of their careers. It was shortly after that Kristina and her then-husband Vishen founded Mindvalley. From a small meditation business operating out of the couple’s apartment in New York, the company quickly grew into a global educational organization offering top training for peak human performance to hundreds of thousands of students all around the world. Kristina helps her students to virtually hack happiness by taking them through her unique framework - “Hacking happiness” - a unique framework of balancing your life, taking in every moment, and paying close attention to the small daily choices. Kristina is also the author of three transformational quests - "7 Days To Happiness", "Live By Your Own Rules.” and "The Art of Being Flawesome". Kristina talks about personal transformation, authenticity, understanding and accepting oneself, and a path to happiness. In July 2023, with the help of Hay House Publishing, Kristina releases her very first book - "Becoming Flawesome". In her book, Kristina shares her own journey from being on top of a personal growth empire like Mindvalley to stepping aside, conscious uncoupling from her husband, and walking her path towards being more honest with herself.

The Real Reason Founders Burn Out Scaling

Adam Strong — Thu, 12 Jun 2025 04:30:00 GMT

Most founders think scaling means more marketing, more hustle, and more chaos… but what if real growth comes from doing the exact opposite? In this episode, I’m joined by Leila Lahbabi, former Strategy Officer at Oliver Wyman, now a sought-after CEO coach and author of Billion Dollar Purpose. With decades of boardroom experience and a powerful five-step scaling framework, she’s transforming how high-performing founders scale sustainably—without losing their soul. I brought Leila on because her take on growth is radically different—and deeply resonant. We unpack what it really takes to build a purpose-led, scalable business without burning out. As someone who's worked with hundreds of founders, I’ve seen firsthand how strategy, mindfulness, and energy management aren't just “nice-to-haves”—they're the core of sustainable success. This conversation challenged me on a personal level, and I know it will do the same for you. If you disappeared tomorrow, would your business survive — or stall?

Unlock Your Leadership Archetype: The Hidden System Driving Your Decisions

Adam Strong — Thu, 05 Jun 2025 04:00:00 GMT

Have you ever noticed how your leadership style flips under pressure—sometimes you micromanage, sometimes you retreat, sometimes you charge ahead like you're putting out fires? That reaction isn’t random. It’s driven by an invisible operating system that's been with you since birth. In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with Rory Kilmartin—relationship researcher and founder of the Archetypal Relationship Academy—to explore a groundbreaking framework for decoding human behaviour through four archetypes: the gorilla, the wolf, the fox, and the sheep. Rory’s 19 years of research reveals how your dominant archetype influences your leadership, relationships, and even who you hire (or fire). If you’re serious about improving the way you lead, communicate, and understand your team—and yourself—this one’s a game-changer.

The Exit Strategy Most Founders Miss

Adam Strong — Thu, 08 May 2025 04:00:00 GMT

What if the key to scaling and exiting your startup wasn’t hustle—but reverse engineering your success from day one? In this powerhouse episode, I sit down with Gregory Shepard—multi-exit entrepreneur, neurodivergent founder, TEDx speaker, and author of The Startup Lifecycle (Penguin Random House). With 12 exits, a $925M deal, and four Private Equity awards. I had a raw, deep-dive conversation with Gregory Shepard, a founder who’s mastered the startup lifecycle through grit, loss, reinvention, and an obsession with doing things smarter. We unpack why most startups fail (and how to avoid that fate), the mindset shifts that separate first-time founders from serial sellers, and his unconventional frameworks for scaling with purpose. Gregory doesn’t just talk exits—he builds companies designed to be acquired. If you're serious about scaling, this episode is a blueprint. JOIN the waitlist to get early access to our community for CEO's and founders that want to scale fast and exit fast. Top 5 Takeaways Build to Exit: Design your business with specific acquirers in mind from day one. Bad Advice Destroys Startups: Most failures stem from well-meaning but poorly timed advice.

Overcoming Mental Health in Entrepreneurship

Adam Strong — Thu, 23 Nov 2023 05:00:00 GMT

Did you know according to Forbes magazine 72% of entrepreneurs suffer directly or indirectly from mental health issues? On today’s episode on the podcast we have Sammy Garrity (nee Blindell) who is a multi-award-winning international speaker, 9-times best-selling author, creator of 1000+ courses, resources & programs, and co-founder of The Impact Catalysts. Having supported 70,000+ change makers since 2002, surveying over 41,000 of them about what stops them succeeding, Sammy knows too many entrepreneurs fear being visible, branded as 'special', or being too successful. It's impacting them mentally, physically and financially, causing mental health decline in those who can no longer cope with the highs and lows alone. That's why she and husband Greg created One Year No Fear, supporting entrepreneurs to courageously achieve goals together, rather than alone. 🙏 How To Support The Game Changers Experience Podcast 🎙️ Subscribe, listen and leave a review on 👉 Apple, Spotify Buy me a coffee 👉 here https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thegamechangers Tag us and share the show with your network Value Bombs from today’s episode Learn about the research and findings on what holds entrepreneurs back from success How entrepreneurs can cope with the pressure of building a brand and getting visible online Why mental health health in entrepreneurship is not spoken more about?

From Stuck to Scalable: Building a Business That Runs Without You

Adam Strong — Thu, 14 Aug 2025 05:00:00 GMT

What if the very way you’re chasing growth is the reason you’ll never escape your business? I sat down with Damon Lembi on The Learn It All Podcast to unpack why so many founders stall out—and what it really takes to break past revenue plateaus while reclaiming your time. I share the hard truths I see inside firms every week: why micromanagement keeps you stuck, how fear, ego, and identity quietly kill exits, and the practical moves to build consistent demand without hiring sprees. We dive into my three-stage Exit Roadmap, the capacity math most leaders ignore, and the mindset shifts that let you step back without the wheels coming off. Want to exit your business but unsure where to start? Take the ‘Exit readiness assessment’ and find out the gaps of what you need to do to plan your exit strategy confidently. Click on the link here: Why listen (what you’ll take away) The real difference between growth (energy-heavy, unsustainable) and scale (systems-first, profitable). The 3-stage exit: make the business not rely on you, maximise profitability with systems, and get sale-ready. How to replace micromanagement with a “right-hand” leader—and why this transition typically takes 18–24 months. A simple capacity & LTV/CPA check so you can scale revenue without bloating headcount. Building a product ecosystem and waitlist that creates demand at the top of the market (not a race to the bottom). If you’re stuck at a revenue plateau, want concrete CEO exit planning tips, and need sustainable scaling strategies that protect margins, this one’s for you.

Why Human-Centric Marketing Is the Future

Adam Strong — Thu, 10 Jul 2025 04:00:00 GMT

What if everything you knew about marketing was wrong? Is the secret to standing out in a noisy world actually... being more human? Forget chasing perfection—connection is what cuts through. But how do you stay real in an AI-dominated landscape? In this episode, I sit down with my friend Phil Treagus-Evans, co-founder of the award-winning agency Giraffe Social and author of the bestselling book Human First Marketing. Phil’s on a mission to strip the BS out of brand-building and help us rethink what real connection looks like in business today. We talk about how AI is changing marketing (for better or worse), why lo-fi content outperforms the polished stuff, and how trust—not tactics—is the new currency. Phil even coaches me live on my own brand strategy—so if you're building yours, you’ll want to grab a pen and play along. This conversation is honest, challenging, and packed with practical gems. If you’re tired of robotic content and want to stand out by being you, this one’s for you. Let’s be real — if you’re drowning in day-to-day crap, you’ll never scale or exit. The Exit Playbook is your ticket out of the chaos. Learn how to stop being your own bottleneck and start leading like a boss. It’s free, no email required and no BS.

Your Hustle Is Killing Your Metabolic Health

Adam Strong — Thu, 08 Jan 2026 05:00:00 GMT

I spent years chasing the myth that the harder you work the bigger the rewards. I was obsessed with growing my company to find freedom but it was a failed experiment. My business was scaling while my body was screaming a question I could not answer: how long can you actually sustain this for? I was winning on paper but my biology was being liquidated behind the scenes. Can you relate? I used to treat my health like a cost centre I could manage after the next milestone. In this episode I sit down with triple board certified physician Dr Amy Loden Tiffany to look at the metabolic crisis I was heading toward. We discuss the biological data points I was ignoring and why my desk was more dangerous than a smoking habit. This is a raw look at the hidden tax on success and why your current lifestyle is secretly draining your cognitive edge. If you have ever woken at 3am with your brain on overload this is an episode you cannot afford to skip. Five reasons to listen The Sitting Death Trap Discover why prolonged sitting is more lethal than smoking and the specific protocol to reverse the damage in weeks. Hidden Mortality Markers The laboratory metrics most doctors ignore that predict early mortality and how insurance companies use them against CEOs. The IQ Connection How metabolic health directly dictates decision making ability and why a compromised state leads to million pound mistakes. Peak Energy ROI The three high impact micro habits that deliver maximum energy for founders working 12 hour days with zero gym time. Biological Burnout Why burnout and metabolic disease share the exact same root causes and how fixing one automatically solves the other. Want to exit your business but unsure where to start?

Unlock Your Leadership Archetype: The Key To Driving Your Decisions

Adam Strong — Thu, 05 Mar 2026 05:00:00 GMT

Have you ever noticed how your leadership style flips under pressure—sometimes you micromanage, sometimes you retreat, sometimes you charge ahead like you're putting out fires? That reaction isn’t random. It’s driven by an invisible operating system that's been with you since birth. In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with Rory Kilmartin—relationship researcher and founder of the Archetypal Relationship Academy to explore a groundbreaking framework for decoding human behaviour through four archetypes: the gorilla, the wolf, the fox, and the sheep. Rory’s 19 years of research reveals how your dominant archetype influences your leadership, relationships, and even who you hire (or fire). If you’re serious about improving the way you lead, communicate, and understand your team—and yourself—this one’s a game-changer. Ready to exit your business but not sure where to start?

Life Remixed

Adam Strong — Tue, 23 Feb 2021 05:00:00 GMT

This week’s episode is with Mark Wilkinson who is a multiple business owner, coach, speaker and published author. Originally music was Mark's life and full-time occupation, as an International house music DJ and record producer. He was resident DJ at the infamous Ministry of Sound in London, played music in 65 different countries and achieved a UK Top 10 hit! At 33 years of age, Mark collapsed with an incurable disease. It was the start of a hellish experience as his body froze up over the next 18 months resulting him in being unable to walk. He was in constant agony and living on painkillers, which eventually led to bankruptcy, depression, loneliness and suicidal thoughts. On a detox in Scotland, Mark was gifted a video of ‘The Secret’. In it he learnt from Bob Proctor that a disease is two words; 'dis-ease'. It was brand new information for Mark, completely opening his mind to new ways of thinking, feeling and being. He began to study philosophy and personal development to detoxify and cure his body, eventually completing 4 marathons (three in London and one in Berlin). In 2018, Mark set up his own Health & Safety Consultancy allowing him to focus on his various other businesses in property, coaching and as a motivational speaker. Mark Wilkinson’s debut book: Life RemixedTM (endorsed by New York Times bestsellers and stars of The Secret; Bob Proctor and Marci Shimoff) will be published on 2nd March 2021. The book tells the story of his roller coaster life as a DJ, how he lost everything and how he remixed his life. In this show we cover: Was living the high life of being a International DJ all cracked up to be? The warning signs that the human body tells you when you are being pushed to the limits What you can learn from the book ’The Secret’ to go from depressed, lonely and financially broke to successful business owner What Mark took from his DJ career into business Discover the consequences of putting wealth before health and happiness For more information visit: Mark’s website: https://markwilkinsonofficial.com/ Book website: www.liferemixed.co.uk Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/markwilkinsonliferemixed Tweet him: https://twitter.com/djmarkwilkinson Follow him on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/markwilkinsonofficial/ ABOUT THE HOST This show is hosted by Ultra-High Personal Productivity Authority, Business Strategist, Former Elite Athlete, Author and International Speaker Adam Strong.

Why Culture-Strong Companies Sell for More

Adam Strong — Thu, 06 Nov 2025 05:00:00 GMT

Culture doesn’t sit on your balance sheet — but it’s the reason some businesses sell for millions more than yours. In this episode I sit down (for the third time!) with WSJ bestselling author Alex Brueckmann to unpack something most founders completely miss in their exit plan: buyers don’t just buy your numbers — they buy your culture. We break down his 9 Elements of Organisational Identity, talk about why two companies with identical P&Ls sell for totally different prices, and how to show culture in due diligence so you can justify a premium. If you’re planning to scale and exit in the next 24–36 months, this is the lens you need. 5 reasons to listen You’ll finally understand the “valuation gap” — why some firms with the same revenue and profit command higher multiples. You get Alex’s 9-element framework that links culture, strategy and leadership — in plain English, not academic fluff. You’ll hear how investors actually think and what they look for beyond client lists and P&Ls when deciding to overpay. You’ll learn how to evidence culture in a way buyers can see, not just read as nice words on a website. • 5. You’ll spot the founder-dependency red flags that kill deals — and what to fix now if you want to exit in 24–36 months. Want to exit your business but unsure where to start?

Today’s conversation exposed some hard truths about leadership blind spots—mine included—and I guarantee you’ll see yourself in this too. I’m talking with Sylvie di Giusto, a global speaking phenom who uses holograms to teach Fortune 500 CEOs and the U.S. Air Force how to lead better. But here’s the kicker: her real superpower isn’t the tech. It’s her ability to reveal why we all think we’re nailing leadership… while our teams are quietly questioning our choices. We get raw about the ‘CEO disease’ (yep, I’ve fallen prey to it), why your good intentions don’t matter if your team misreads them, and how a herd of horses once taught Sylvie more about leadership than any MBA. Oh, and she called out my ‘traditionalist’ vibe live on air—navy blue suits and all. If you’ve ever felt misunderstood as a leader, or just want to ditch the guesswork in how you’re perceived, this episode’s packed with ‘aha’ moments. No fluff, just real talk—and tools you can use by lunchtime." Want to exit your business but unsure where to start?

The Exit Playbook: Why Acquisitions Are Your Fast Track to Financial Freedom

Adam Strong — Thu, 27 Feb 2025 05:00:00 GMT

What if you could skip the 3-year startup grind and scale your business… by buying one instead? In this episode, I sit down with Jeremy Harbour—Wall Street Journal bestselling author, mergers & acquisitions maestro, and founder of the Harbour Club—to crack open the real playbook for buying, scaling, and exiting businesses. With 30+ years and 300+ deals under his belt (including taking a company public on NASDAQ), Jeremy shares why acquisitions—not startups—are the secret weapon for entrepreneurs craving freedom. We dissect how to avoid costly mistakes, structure “no money down” deals, and turn volatile small businesses into exit-ready assets. 5 Takeaways You’ll Steal 1. Stop chasing profits. Freedom comes from selling businesses—not grinding day-to-day ops. 2. Set-and-forget is a myth. Markets evolve—stay hands-on or lose your shirt. 3. Buy for the exit. Document systems, track buyer-friendly metrics (recurring revenue, margins). 4. Replace outdated tactics FAST. Fax blasts worked in the 90s… today’s buyers want modern growth engines. 5. Win-win deals exist. Use “work-in-buyout” strategies to acquire businesses while they pay for themselves. If you could acquire one competitor tomorrow with £0 down… would you know where to start?

Roberta dismantles hire slow, fire fast principle, shows me how to attract A-players without the massive salaries, and explains why small firms have a hidden edge right now.
