When there’s a crisis, some people flee or freeze, but many of us go straight to fight or “fix it” mode.

Adrienne Dorison, co-founder of Run Like Clockwork with Mike Michalowicz, joins me today to discuss why it’s so important for owners to have systems in place to not only make their lives easier and more enjoyable, but to also allow the business to run without you in case you need a well-needed vacation or have a health issue.  Chapters 00:29 - Meet Adrienne Dorison 01:13 - How she became an accidental entrepreneur  06:22 - “Clockwork” your business so you can step away 12:36 - Using systems to support you and your employees  18:46 - The best time to start implementing systems 21:40 - Workaholism and our obsession with productivity  28:44 - Work with Adrienne (plus her exciting new projects)    To learn more about Adrienne or Run Like Clockwork, visit her website at https://www.runlikeclockwork.com or on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/adriennedorison For even more content and a daily dose of inspiration, follow me

After we stopped recording last week’s episode, Kori Carew and I continued our conversation. At some point, we decided the conversation was too important to be private, so we hit record to invite you into the discussion.

Two weeks after the election, Kori Carew and I sat down to discuss: (1) what had changed around the topic of authenticity, belonging, and courage since her last Hustle & Podcast interview in January 2020 and (2) what courageous leadership means in today’s divisive climate.   From an attack on books, DEI, and bodily autonomy, to the overwhelming victory of Trump and a rise in hateful rhetoric and behavior, how do we move forward with creating safe, equitable, and inclusive communities and workplaces?  This may be the most important conversation I’ve had on the podcast in a long time and I firmly believe that it will provide you with the wisdom, strength, and courage to find your own unique way to make a difference over the next four years and beyond.    Chapters 00:29 - Welcome back Kori Carew  02:41 - Authenticity, belonging, and courage in corporate   08:01 - Shifting corporate values related to DEI  15:10 - The impact of “politics” on safety and belonging at work  25:18 - What courage looks like under a
