  Episode #154

  154. Colton: Preparation, Self-Reflection, and Learning From the First Big Event

  Aug 18, 202612 min

  Episode 154 is about preparation, reflection, and learning from experience. Colton recaps Grizzy’s first large live music event, including the cost, pressure, uncertainty, turnout, and behind-the-scenes work that goes into putting something like it together. Even though the event was a success, the bigger takeaway came from everything they learned along the way and the things they already know they can improve next time. Colton also connects that experience back to everyday life with the idea that professionals do not just practice until they get something right, they practice until they cannot get it wrong. Whether it is a business event, a gym install, leadership, communication, or your own daily habits, preparation and honest self-reflection are what allow you to keep improving. Look at what worked, identify what did not, and use every experience to come back better the next time.

  153. Colton: Hiring Better People, Protecting Your Circle, and Raising the Standard

  Aug 13, 202616 min

  Episode 153 is about being intentional with the people you bring into your business and your life. Colton shares how he approaches hiring new team members, why character and shared values matter just as much as experience, and why first impressions can tell you more than people realize. The goal is not just to fill an open position, but to bring in people who genuinely want to be there, fit the culture, and can help move the entire team forward. He also connects that lesson back to personal relationships and the people closest to you. Are the people in your circle pushing you to grow, or draining your time and energy? Are you constantly giving without getting anything back? Colton challenges listeners to look at the people around them, understand what those relationships are adding to their lives, and raise the standard instead of simply filling the void.

  Episode #152

  152. Colton: Adapt, Step Up, and Do What the Business Needs

  Aug 11, 202619 min

  Episode 152 is a behind-the-scenes look at the reality of operating Grizzy’s Diner and Tavern and learning a completely different business in real time. Colton breaks down the challenges of weekday traffic, thin restaurant margins, labor costs, food costs, and figuring out what actually makes Monday through Thursday profitable. He also shares why he and G are stepping behind the bar, handling deliveries, and testing “office hours” as a new way to bring more people into the restaurant during slower parts of the day. The bigger lesson is about adaptability. Business rarely looks exactly how you imagined it would, and sometimes the answer is simply to step in, do the work, learn what is broken, and adjust. Whether that means bartending, delivering food, washing dishes, cutting dead hours, or trying something completely new, the goal is to stay positive, stay flexible, and keep finding a way forward.

  Episode #151

  151. Colton: True Character, Hard Conversations, and Knowing When to Let Go

  Aug 6, 202615 min

  Episode 151 is about what happens when people reveal who they truly are and how leaders should respond when relationships, teams, or expectations begin to change. Colton reflects on recent staff turnover, the feedback he has received, and why his first responsibility is to listen, accept criticism, and look honestly at what he could have done better. At the same time, having a big heart and offering endless second chances can become costly when someone continually brings negativity, poor character, or the wrong attitude into the circle. He also shares a lesson from a mentor: when someone shows you who they really are, thank them for the clarity. Whether it happens in business, friendship, or family, the lesson is to pay attention, have the hard conversations sooner, and stop hoping problems will magically fix themselves. You can still care about someone and wish them well without keeping them close enough to damage the culture, the team, or your own mindset.

  150. Colton: Getting Back in Rhythm, Finding the Gaps, and Refocusing Fast

  Aug 4, 202619 min

  Episode 150 is about what happens when you step away, what the business reveals without you, and how to get back into rhythm without trying to do everything at once. Colton recaps his family vacation, shares what operated well while he was gone, and breaks down the areas that need stronger marketing, staffing, onboarding, and leadership. Time away gave him a clearer view of which systems are working and where the businesses still depend too heavily on him.He also talks about returning to your routine after a vacation, injury, or long setback. Instead of expecting yourself to immediately perform at the same level as before, rebuild the habit first, get moving, and let the intensity return gradually. The same approach applies to work: recalibrate, get everything out of your head, identify the biggest needle movers, and focus on the areas that need you most.
