    #140: How to Unlock Your Next Revenue Stream (Alex Batdorf, Get Sh!t Done)

    It's my 1st solo episode, y'all! And I'm breaking down one of the most overlooked growth levers founders, operators, and ecosystem builders have access to right now. As 2026 continues to reshape how businesses grow, scale, and stay stable, many of the strategies that used to work simply don’t hit the same. Funding feels harder to access. Corporate jobs feel less reliable. And builders are being forced to make sharper decisions with fewer resources. In this episode of the Get Sh!t Done Podcast, I'll walk you through why guessing what to build next is one of the most expensive mistakes you can make and how to get consent so you know where to unlock revenue. This is a simple unlock I've used from years of training thousands of entrepreneurs and designing revenue-first programs with cities and economic development offices. 💡 Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode: Why Surveys Alone Don’t Tell the Full Story: How poorly designed surveys lead founders to solve the wrong problems and what to do instead. The 3 Questions That Reveal Real Revenue Opportunities: The exact questions Alex uses to uncover what customers actually want and would pay to fix. How to Turn Conversations Into Patterns You Can Trust: A clear framework for analyzing feedback without overthinking or forcing insights. How to Build With Consent, Not Vibes: Why customer feedback is the fastest way to know when to lean in, slow down, or stop forcing an idea. How to Translate Feedback Into a Confident Next Move: Whether that’s a pivot, an optimization, or a small test, without blowing up what’s already working. 🔥 Take the Free Traction Quiz: Feeling stuck or scattered?

    #138: Why You Ain’t Getting Paid to Speak (Yet) with Christina Alessi

    Meet Christina Alessi, founder of Sfera Agency and one of the most trusted voices in the speaking industry — the person behind the scenes helping who actually gets booked and who gets rebooked. Christina spent years selling keynotes alongside Simon Sinek, watching hundreds of would-be speakers chase stages, burn money, and confuse exposure with demand. She’s seen the fantasy from the inside and she’s not here to sell it to you. In this episode, Christina pulls the rug out from under the speaking-industrial complex and starts with the question most people avoid: who should not be a speaker? From there, we get radically practical about what actually works if you do want to get paid and get people to care. 💡 Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode: Who Shouldn’t Be a Speaker (And the Red Flags You’re Ignoring): Why being “good at talking” isn’t enough and the signals you’re about to waste time, money, and energy.How to Define the Message Only You Can Own: The difference between studied expertise and embodied experience and why interchangeable thought leaders don’t get booked twice.How to Tailor Your Talk Without Chasing Trends: Christina’s approach to adapting one core message across industries while still standing for something real.The Most Practical Pricing Roadmap You’ve Never Heard: How speaking fees actually increase over time, what price jumps make sense, and why random numbers kill credibility.How to Get Paid, Baby (For Real): How demand is built, why prospecting backfires, and how speaking turns into real revenue .🔥 Take the Free Traction Quiz: Feeling stuck or scattered?

    #137: How to Use Human Design to Thrive This Year (Lessons from a Founder Who Raised $160M) with Jacques Anderson

    Meet Jacquees Anderson — former Harvard Law grad, corporate M&A attorney, startup operator, and co-founder of a venture-backed company that raised over $160 million. On paper, Jacquees did everything “right.” She followed the path, built at scale, and operated inside high-growth environments. But during a deeply personal season of caregiving, she realized something critical: the way she was working — and leading — was completely out of alignment with how she was designed to operate. In this episode of Get Sh!t Done, Jacquees breaks down how Human Design became a practical operating system for her work, leadership, and decision-making — not as a personality test, but as a framework founders, operators, and ecosystem builders can actually use to grow sustainably. This is a tactical conversation about energy, alignment, and structure and how understanding your design helps you stop forcing productivity, make better decisions, and scale without burning out. 💡 Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode: How to Use Human Design as a Business Operating System: What Human Design actually is and how founders can apply it to work, leadership, and growth.The 5 Human Design Types at Work: How each type is meant to operate, lead, and make decisions and why copying other founders’ strategies often backfires.How to Spot Misalignment Before Burnout Hits: The “check-engine lights” that signal when something in your business or role needs to change.How to Make Better Decisions Faster: Why authority matters more than instinct and how knowing yours removes second-guessing.How to Protect Your Energy While Scaling: Using Human Design to collaborate better, clarify roles, and reduce friction on teams.If you’ve ever felt like the strategies that used to work suddenly stopped working or like you’re doing everything “right” but still feel exhausted, this episode will help you understand why, and what to do instead.

    This is our last episode of 2025! We'll see you back here in January 2026 3 Meet Sehreen Noor Ali, a zero-to-one founder who made one of the hardest decisions in entrepreneurship: letting go of a business that was technically working. Sehreen co-founded Sleuth, a venture-backed pediatric health startup that reached 64,000+ families, earned Fast Company recognition, and achieved a $3 CAC in an industry where the average is $168. On paper, the company was strong. But behind the scenes, market shifts, a caregiving crisis, and growing founder depletion forced a deeper reckoning. In this Founder Confession episode of Get Sh!t Done, Sehreen pulls back the curtain on what it actually looks like to evaluate alignment, confront sunk-cost thinking, and walk away with integrity, without burning bridges or losing yourself in the process. 💡 Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode: How to Grow Through Trust (Not Hustle): How Sleuth built demand by positioning around shared identity, transparency, and community—leading to 64,000+ engaged families.How to Tell When the Math Stops Mathing: The questions Sehreen used to evaluate whether continuing, pivoting, or shutting down was the right move.How Founder Depletion Shows Up Before Burnout: The early signals that quietly distort decision-making and how to recognize them in your own business.How to Navigate Hard Conversations With Integrity: The framework Sehreen used to communicate her decision clearly to investors and stakeholders.How to Rebuild What’s Next With Intention: How Sehreen rebuilt her work through Te Cura Labs, including finding her ICP, packaging her expertise, and going upmarket to create sustainable revenue.If you’re an entrepreneur, operator, or ecosystem leader navigating a crossroads or quietly wondering if it’s time to let something go—we hope this episode will help you slow down, get honest, and choose your next move without guilt. 🔥 Take the Free Traction Quiz: Feeling stuck or scattered?

    #135: How to Build a Membership That 10x's Your Recurring Revenue (Mike Morrison, Membership Geeks & Membership Academy)

    Most founders dream about launching a membership because they want predictable recurring revenue. But here’s the truth: recurring revenue only works when you create recurring value. This week, we’re joined by Mike Morrison, co-founder of Membership Academy and one of the most trusted experts in the membership space. Over the past decade, Mike has helped thousands of founders build high-retention membership businesses that grow sustainably. When Mike launched his first membership, nothing about it suggested it would become a 7-figure recurring revenue engine. He didn’t have a massive audience. He didn’t have a huge content library. What he did have was a deep understanding of what his audience cared about and the systems to support them over time. In this episode, Mike breaks down what most founders get wrong about memberships and the exact strategies that make the model work. How to Diagnose Member Motivation: The 4 Member Motivators that reveal what your audience truly values—and why people actually stay. How to Validate Your Idea With Real Buyers: Mike’s Paid Masterclass Test that shows you if your membership will work before you spend months building it. How to Design a Membership That Gets Wins, Not Overwhelm: The simple framework structure that helps members make progress without drowning you in content creation. How to Price for Predictable Recurring Revenue: The Founder → Step-Up → Legacy pricing model that builds trust, momentum, and long-term MRR. How to Keep Members for Years: The onboarding, feedback loops, and “fire yourself” systems that turn a membership from stressful… to sustainable. Whether you're building your first membership or reviving one that hasn’t hit its stride, this is the roadmap most founders never get and the one that makes recurring revenue actually work. 🔥 Take the Free Traction Quiz: Feeling stuck or scattered?

    #134: How to Build a $100M Self-Funded Business (Tracy Holland, InnerFifth & GoodWill Brands)

    Meet Tracy Holland, the founder who built HatchBeauty into a $100M+ powerhouse and more than $750M in lifetime revenue, without a single dollar of VC or PE.While most founders get told they have to raise to scale, Tracy built a completely self-funded engine that outperformed venture-backed competitors. She turned a $2M agency into her investor, negotiated net-90 terms as an unknown startup, landed retail giants like Costco and Target, and built systems that eventually let her step out of the operator seat entirely. In this episode, Tracy pulls back the curtain on the exact frameworks she used to scale from $0 to $100M—and the mindset shifts founders must make if they want to build a high-growth, high-ownership business without burning out. 💡 Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode: How to Self-Fund Your First $10M: Why Tracy built a service engine that produced the cash flow she used to launch and scale her product business.How to Land Major Retail Partners (Costco, Target, Ulta, CVS): Her repeatable strategy for turning retailers into collaborators, not gatekeepers.How to Negotiate Net-90 Terms as a Small Brand: The transparency play and forecasting packet she used to secure vendor credit early.How to Manage Cash Flow Like a CFO: The cash cycle, factoring strategy, and weekly money disciplines that took her from $2M → $10M → $35M → $100M.How to Build a Self-Operating Company: The exact SOP and IP systems she used to eventually fire herself as operator and create true freedom of time.🔥 Take the Free Traction Quiz: Feeling stuck or scattered?

    #133: How Entrepreneurs Survive Mental-Health Breakdowns (And Prevent Them) (Evita Robinson & Tania Kottoor)

    Meet Evita Robinson, founder of NoMadness Travel Tribe, and Tania Kottoor, founder of WEST X EAST — two powerhouse entrepreneurs whose founder journeys include Emmy wins, global communities, brand deals, motherhood, and milestone growth… but also panic attacks, postpartum crises, leadership burnout, financial pressure, and the kind of emotional unraveling entrepreneurship never prepares you for. In this episode, we strip away the glamor and dig into the truth:Founders don’t break because they’re weak.They break because they forget they’re human and because the blueprint we were given for “success” is breaking an entire generation of entrepreneurs. 💡 Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode: How to Stop Carrying What Was Never Yours: Why founders feel responsible for everything — and how to identify what’s actually yours to hold. How to Catch Breakdown Before It Hits: The early signs (numbness, dread, emotional shutdown) that high performers often ignore. How to Ask for Help Without Feeling Like You’re Failing: Language and strategies for getting support while staying in your power. How to Rebuild a Rhythm Your Body Can Withstand: Daily anchors, boundaries, and scheduling shifts that prevent burnout. How to Redefine Success So You Don’t Lose Yourself: The post-breakdown clarity that helps founders build from truth, not pressure. This is the most honest conversation we’ve had about mental health in entrepreneurship, not a pity party, not a highlight reel, but a roadmap for leading in a world that’s been asking too much of us for far too long. If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything “right” and still falling apart inside, this episode will make you feel seen and give you a way forward. 🔥 Take the Free Traction Quiz: Feeling stuck or scattered?
