I am Josh Cadillac and welcome to my podcast KNOW YOUR SHIT. I've seen great success as well as seen the bottom in 2008. The one lesson I've learned is that for you to have success and differentiate yourself from everyone else, you need to KNOW YOUR SHIT. As a successful educator and investor in real estate and crypto, it drives me nuts that people do not immerse themselves in their craft. Everyone is so busy selling that they forget the most important thing: the product. I'll talk to the most successful folks in every industry, bring them to you, and show you the common denominator.

    219: Why the Best Leaders Make Themselves Obsolete | Ted Santos

    What if becoming unnecessary is actually the sign of a great leader? Josh Cadillac sits down with Ted Santos to discuss turning chaos into growth, asking the questions nobody else is asking, and building teams that can succeed without depending on you. In Episode 219 of the Know Your Sh*t podcast, Josh Cadillac sits down with executive coach, business strategist, and turnaround expert Ted Santos to explore why breakthroughs often come from questioning what everyone else accepts as normal. Ted shares how he has helped CEOs create disruptive strategies, transform company culture, and navigate periods of rapid growth and chaos. After leading businesses through both explosive growth and declining revenue, he learned that chaos is not always something to avoid. When handled correctly, it can expose weaknesses, develop stronger teams, and create opportunities for growth. The conversation dives into why the best leaders do not always provide answers. Instead, Ted explains the power of asking better questions, challenging assumptions, and helping people see problems from perspectives they may have never considered. He shares how one client initially became frustrated because Ted would not simply solve his problems for him, only to later realize those questions were helping him uncover solutions no one inside his company had considered. Josh and Ted also discuss resilience, setbacks, and how difficult experiences can shape the way people lead. Ted opens up about losing both of his parents at a young age, taking responsibility for his younger siblings, and learning that people are capable of far more than they realize when circumstances demand it. That mindset eventually became central to the way he approaches leadership, business, and personal development. This episode is a thought-provoking conversation about leadership, navigating chaos, questioning conventional wisdom, overcoming setbacks, and learning how to bring out potential in yourself and the people around you.

    218: Are You Working Too Hard? | Liz Landry

    In Episode 218 of the Know Your Sh*t podcast, Josh Cadillac sits down with organizational leadership consultant and entrepreneur Liz Landry to explore what happens when hard work is no longer enough to grow a business. Liz shares how she entered management as a teenager, overseeing employees and millions of dollars in revenue before eventually leaving the corporate world to start her own business. Despite knowing how to operate an established company, she quickly learned that building one from the ground up required an entirely different skill set. Within a few years, she found herself working 18-hour days, seven days a week, overwhelmed by a business that depended on her for everything. The conversation dives into why entrepreneurs eventually have to transition from being the operator who carries the business to the owner who builds the people, leadership, and systems that allow it to operate without them. Liz explains why the same work ethic that helps entrepreneurs build their businesses can eventually become the thing that holds them back if they never develop new leadership skills. Josh and Liz also discuss creating freedom before retirement, learning how to lead yourself when you are your own boss, and changing the way entrepreneurs view failure. Liz explains why every failure should be treated like tuition: understand what it cost, learn the lesson, and make sure you do not pay for the same mistake twice. This episode is a practical conversation about leadership, entrepreneurship, burnout, building scalable businesses, and making the transition from constantly working inside your business to creating something that can grow without depending entirely on you.
