  2. Lessons for Hannah - Tough Times Don't Last, Tough People Do

    Lessons for Hannah - Tough Times Don't Last, Tough People Do

    Many years ago, I introduced a new format that alongside our regular episodes called “Lessons for Hannah.” Hannah is my daughter and one of the main inspirations for the Misfit Entrepreneur. I wanted to have a place where she could go and learn from her daddy and his Misfit friends throughout her life….even after I am gone. If you haven’t listened to the first episode of "Lessons for Hannah," I urge you to as it gives some more background and tells the amazing story of how Hannah came to be in our lives. Lessons for Hannah are short, very useful, and sometimes comical lessons, that I want to share with you and give to Hannah to help in your lives. Because I want Hannah to have these for her life, I’m going to speak as though I am talking directly to her. These episodes are a lot of fun and if you think there is a lesson that we should include in these episodes, please don’t hesitate to send it over to us at support@misfitentrepreneur.com. We’d love to share it. To see the full show notes and Misfit 3 for this episode, go to www.MisfitEntrepreneur.com.

    Build a Thriving Business & Marriage, Robert & Kay Lee Fukui’s Strategies for Entrepreneurial Harmony

    This week’s Misfit Entrepreneurs are Robert and Kay Lee Fukui. Robert and Kay are former fortune 500 standouts, who saw an opportunity to help married entrepreneurs and business owners create harmony between the rigorous demands of building a business and maintaining a healthy, happy thriving marriage. Their company, Couples by Design teaches entrepreneurs and business owners and their spouses how have it all – a thriving business and marriage by helping them better understand themselves, each other, and how to support each other in business and at home. We all know the challenges of being responsible for a business and working to maintain a good environment at home, but the stats don’t lie. Some estimates suggest that up to 48% entrepreneurs get divorced. That is way too high and a big problem, because speaking from experience, it is a lot easier to succeed as an entrepreneur, when you have good support at home from your spouse. So I had to have Robert and Kay on the show to share how you can thrive in this area of your life. marriedentrepreneur.co/misfit Show Sponsors: Entrepreneurs, what if there was a way to know you were hiring the best salespeople to drive your business?

  7. The Top 5 Lessons from 2024 and How to Win Big in 2025

    JAN 1

    The Top 5 Lessons from 2024 and How to Win Big in 2025

    This year, I am going to do something a little different. I’ve just returned from spending almost a month overseas and competing in New Zealand in the Ironman World Championships. I promised my family that I would take that time with them and just unplug. That meant no podcasts or anything during that time and I stuck to it. It was an amazing trip and such a wonderful experience. For all my Kiwi listeners, your country is truly incredible. I hope everyone watching and listening gets a chance to visit it someday. I started out saying that this end of year episode is going to be a little different. Where usually, I do a recap of all the episodes throughout the year and share wisdom from them, instead, I am going to share my Top 5 lessons I am taking away from 2024 and my best advice going into 2025. I had a lot of time to think on these things while I traveled and thought it would be great to share them with you.
