S3 Ep 32Climbing Mountains with Vision and Traction | Matt Hansen EP 112

About the guest, in his own words:Ever since I was a kid, I had a passion to create and invent. When I was a young engineer, I got to turn that passion into a reality when one of my first patents launched a new business. Two other founders and I grew that business from nothing to $10M in about 3 or 4 years. At the same time, I started a non-profit. Twenty years later, that organization has grown to be bigger than I imagined, and it's successfully grown beyond needing my involvement.I went on to climb the corporate ladder eventually becoming responsible for a $200M a year in sales, but I missed the entrepreneurial spirit I felt when I was younger, so I left the corporate world to run a small business of 55 people.I worked closely with the owner time to turn his vision into a reality. However, it was a challenge because the things I'd learned in big companies didn't translate well to small businesses. That’s when I learned about EOS and then everything changed for me.From there I was hooked, I knew what I wanted to do from that point on. I wanted to help others get everything they want from their businesses, so they can live the lift they crave.Matt can be reached:https://www.linkedin.com/in/matt-hansen001/https://www.eosworldwide.com/matt-hansenAbout the Host:Ross Stockdale is a Fractional CMO, marketing consultant, and business owner.

S3 Ep 31What you Don’t Know Can Hurt You | Scott Krentzman EP 111

About the guest, in his own words: I always loved technology. It began with cutting my teeth on the Radio Shack TRS-80 Model I in 1978 and progressed to obtaining degrees in Electrical Engineering, with working in big defense electronics firms, a computer systems manufacturer and a systems and network management software company. While I always enjoyed the individual challenges of solving technical problems, I found that bringing whole projects to life were even more exciting. That idea also originated in childhood as I watched my father consult small and medium sized businesses in all aspects of their operations to make them more successful. Since obtaining my MBA over 20 years ago, I’ve found great excitement in helping teams grow and deliver on all kinds of projects. In joining CMIT, I am merging my passions for technology with helping all kinds of businesses operate even better. My team and I are passionate about helping you grow your business, finding your points of IT pain and letting you sleep at night, while we take care of “IT” for you. In addition to my team, I’m backed by the national power of CMIT, which means I have experts in every technology on call. So, you get the benefit of local service and the power of a nationwide firm. I’m looking forward to working on your strategic IT needs so you can get back to your passion – making your business as successful as it can be. I believe in developing long lasting relationships based on commitment and trust!

Emily guides and supports her coaching clients every step of the way in getting to the roots of their chronic health challenges and achieving lasting results in their health and lives efficiently! Emily knows what it’s like to struggle with chronic health challenges. She personally struggled for at least 7 years with chronic digestive issues, low energy levels, sleep challenges, and in spite of her many efforts to seek help from conventional doctors/specialists as well as natural practitioners, she ended up developing painful inflammatory flares in her hands and feet as an additional symptom. She researched much on her own to better understand her challenges and what to do about it and once feeling better decided to get certified as a Health Coach to help others so they wouldn’t have to go 7+ years like she did to feel well again. Emily helps her clients holistically (addressing body, mind, and soul). She offers thorough initial wellness consults and longer term coaching packages to tailor support to each individual person. Emily specializes in Autoimmune, digestive issues, thyroid health, food sensitivities (including gluten), inflammatory conditions, healthy lifestyles, toxins, hormonal health, brain health, speech/communication challenges, and supporting kids and families.
