    Clarity Isn’t Certainty: Stacie Shifflett on Reinvention, Joy, and Conscious Living

    What if clarity does not give you certainty — it simply shows you the next step? In this episode of Let’s Go Win, JM Ryerson sits down with Stacie Shifflett, founder of Modern Consciousness and author of Treasure Map to Joy, for a powerful conversation about reinvention, grief, clarity, personal growth, and conscious living. Stacie shares how major life disruptions — including the loss of her infant son, the end of a 28-year marriage, and major career transitions — shaped her perspective on resilience, self-awareness, and joy. She explains why personal growth is not always easy, why emotions are not meant to be judged, and why clarity is only the beginning of change. You’ll also hear how Stacie built and helped acquire a $50 million software company with no upfront cash, why joy is more than an emotion, and how we can become the next best version of ourselves one small step at a time. If you are navigating change, rebuilding after loss, seeking clarity, or learning how to create your own path forward, this episode is for you.

    More Revenue Won't Fix Your Business | Ben Hansen, The Profit Doctor

    Most business owners are playing the wrong game. They chase revenue, scale their operations, and work harder every year — only to find that the financial rewards are not keeping pace. In this episode, JM Ryerson sits down with Ben Hansen, known as The Profit Doctor, a business profitability consultant who works with seven- and eight-figure companies to identify profit leaks and generate real returns for business owners. Ben walks through the specific framework he uses to diagnose profitability problems, including the 50-20 Principle — his most powerful tool for quickly improving a company's bottom line. He also breaks down the psychology that keeps business owners focused on the wrong number, and why the path to financial freedom starts with looking at profitability, not revenue.Topics covered in this episode:• The revenue myth: why growing revenue without addressing profitability makes things worse• Profit leaks: how to identify which products, customers, and team members are costing you money• The 50-20 Principle: cut half of the worst 20 percent in 30 days across products, customers, and people• The three pillars of profit improvement: mindset, tools, and data visibility• The Michelangelo principle: how carving away the wrong things transforms a business faster than adding moreFree resource: Profit Leaks Assessment Tool at profitdoctor.com/leaksLet's Go Win is hosted by JM Ryerson — executive coach, speaker, and author of Let's Go Win, Champion's Daily Playbook, and Upgrade.

    The Future of Work Is Gray — And Most Leaders Are Missing It | Dan Pontefract

    What does the future of work actually look like — and why aren't most leaders paying attention?In this episode, JM Ryerson sits down with Dan Pontefract, six-time author and former Chief Learning Officer at SAP and TELUS, to talk about the biggest demographic shift happening in today's workforce. Dan's latest book, The Future of Work Is Gray, breaks down why the math on our aging workforce is changing everything — and what leaders and organizations need to do about it before it's too late.They cover the real reason talented graduates can't find jobs while companies still struggle to find the right people, the boy-men crisis and the blue collar opportunity being ignored, why generational labels like Boomer and Gen Z are doing more harm than good inside organizations, and the case for reciprocal mentoring — where wisdom flows both ways regardless of age.JM and Dan also dig into the accountability crisis gripping today's workplace, how communication overload is making it worse, and where artificial intelligence actually fits into all of this. Dan's take — OI plus AI equals EI, original intelligence combined with artificial intelligence produces enhanced intelligence — is one of the clearest frameworks you'll hear on the topic.If you lead a team, run a company, or are trying to figure out your place in a workforce that's changing fast, this conversation is for you.Find Dan's book at thefutureofworkisgray.com and connect with him at danpontefract.com.

    The Real Reason Your Team Keeps Going Back to Old Habits | Travis Hahler

In this episode of Let's Go Win, JM sits down with Travis Hahler — executive advisor, keynote speaker, and author of Rethink Resistance: Embracing Neuroscience to Lead Transformational Change. Travis has guided change initiatives touching tens of thousands of employees at companies like Salesforce, and he's cracked the code on why smart, capable people resist, stall, and burn out during organizational shifts — and what leaders can actually do about it. This is the conversation every leader needs before their next big change. Key Takeaways:1. Resistance to change is biological — it's not a people problem, it's a brain problem2. Silence is never neutral — what you don't say, people fill in with fear3. The 3-part framework every change announcement needs4. Change takes 66–90 days — there is no shortcut5. All change is loss — the leaders who get this win every time6. Empathy and accountability aren't opposites — it's about sequencing them right7.
