    Feel It or Fix It: Adam Roach on Building a Business That Isn't About You

    Adam Roach has coached tennis, sold real estate franchises, and built a SaaS company. But it took speaking at his father's funeral for him to figure out what he actually wanted to build. In this episode, Adam breaks down the REAL Coach Method (relevant, experiential, authentic leaders), why he chose significance over notoriety, and the four-character framework that changed how he shows up for his community. We get into the "feel it or fix it" question that saved his marriage and now runs his whole business, the trust ledger he uses instead of chasing strangers, and why he let his bookkeeper go once AI could do the job. We also go off-script on trademarks, why there's only ever room for one hero, and where Adam thinks AI is actually taking us. If you're a coach trying to scale, or a business owner who keeps starting things and never finishing them, this one's for you. In this episode: Multipliers vs simplifiers, and why Adam stopped trying to do everything. The beach chair moment that led him to sell three businesses in one day. What REAL actually stands for, and why he trademarked it. Feel it or fix it: the four-word question that defuses almost any conversation. The victim, villain, hero, and guide framework (and why you never want to be the hero). The trust ledger, and why you can't make deposits with strangers. POSE: how being wounded turns into a lie turns into a vow. Where AI fits into coaching, and the jobs conversation nobody wants to have. Ready to stop being the bottleneck in your own business?

Then grab the $17 Business Relief Toolkit for the checklists that help you fix it.Follow me on Instagram @aspen_peggs for behind-the-scenes content. Curious about the tools I actually use?

    There is No Balance. Just Trade-Offs.

    If you’ve been chasing “balance” while building your business and wondering why it feels impossible… this episode is going to hit. Because here’s the truth: balance in the early stages isn’t the goal. It’s a myth. In this episode, Aspen breaks down what it actually looks like to build a business from the ground up—long days, real trade-offs, and the decisions no one talks about. From choosing between time vs. money, to when to hire, to why your bookkeeping should never be an afterthought, this is a practical look at what it really takes to grow something sustainable. She also shares: Why comparing your year one to someone else’s year ten will mess with your headThe real cost of doing everything yourself vs. getting help earlyWhy speed (not perfection) builds trust and closes dealsWhen boundaries help—and when they actually hurt you in the early daysWhat changed around year five that finally created breathing roomWhy referrals—not ads—have been the most effective growth strategyThe reality of operating in the “grey” in business decisionsThis episode is a reminder that building a business isn’t about getting it perfect—it’s about making decisions, learning fast, and staying in it long enough to see the payoff. If you’re in the thick of it right now, this one’s for you. If you want support figuring out what to offload, what to build, and how to create a business that doesn’t rely on you for everything—reach out. Let’s Connect!

    You’re Not Expensive. They’re Just Not Ready.

    If people keep asking you to lower your prices, it’s not because you’re too expensive. It’s because they’re not ready. In this episode, I get into the reality of pricing. What you’re actually charging for, why discounting quietly wrecks your business, and how to stop folding the second someone pushes back. I share real examples from inside Northern Primrose, including: A coaching inquiry that turned into a request for my full ClickUp templates without the investmentA prospect who told us we were more expensive and what happened when I didn’t budgeWhy I still invest heavily in coaching for myself and my leadership team and what that means for how I price my own services We also get into what to actually say when someone asks for a discount, without over-explaining or negotiating yourself down. If you’ve ever questioned your pricing, felt uncomfortable holding your rates, or found yourself making exceptions that don’t actually serve you, this one’s for you.

    Think Like an Owner (Even If You’re Not the Boss)

    If you’re waiting to be told what to do or saying “that’s not my job,” you’re not leading. You’re just checking boxes. In this episode, I’m calling out what separates real ownership from task-doing. Because if you want to get promoted, get trusted, or just stop having your work second-guessed, this is where it starts. I’m breaking down how to show up like the business depends on you, even if your title says assistant, coordinator, or manager. This mindset has built careers, kept people employed during layoffs, and made the difference between being overlooked and being essential. Here’s what I get into: what “thinking like an owner” actually looks likehow to stop being a reactive checklist robotwhy strong boundaries still mean showing up like you give a shitthe exact phrases to use when something’s brokena dead simple mindset shift you can start this week Let’s Connect!

    If You’re the Only One Who Gets It, It Doesn’t Count

    In this episode of Efficiently Ever After, I’m calling out one of the biggest issues I see with founders and CEOs—unclear leadership. If your team constantly looks confused, it’s probably not a talent problem. It’s because you never gave them the damn map. I’m sharing how implementing the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) completely changed how we operate at Northern Primrose. From Rocks to the V/TO to L10 meetings, EOS gave us structure, clarity, and a way to hold people accountable without micromanaging the shit out of everything. This episode is packed with straight talk and practical tips to help you stop playing business and actually lead one. If you’re tired of carrying the entire load, repeating yourself on Slack, or wondering why no one’s taking initiative—this one’s for you. Takeaways: If your team looks confused, that’s on you. I hadn’t given anyone the big picture. Busywork kills momentum. EOS helped us stop winging it and start leading. People don’t just want tasks—they want purpose. Leadership without babysitting? That’s the goal. Just pick one tool—Rocks, V/TO, L10s—whatever. Write the f*****g plan. Let’s Connect!
