The Five Facets of Business™ Podcast

Motion vs. Momentum: Why Your Team Might Be Working From Different Pictures

Mon, 12 Oct 2026 08:00:00 -0400

We kick off Season 5 with a shift in format, more one-on-one conversations where we get specific about implementation, not just concept. And we're opening with one of the most common traps we see in businesses of every size: mistaking organization for direction.

Cleaning up processes and getting people into the right seats feels like progress. But if the destination only lives in the founder's head, that work is motion, not momentum. In this episode, we walk through what happens when a leadership team is executing against different pictures of where the business is going, and why that gap creates what we call the drift: not one bad decision, but hundreds of reasonable ones, each made against a slightly different version of the future.

We introduce the Clarity Canvas, a one-page tool built around seven questions that cover all five facets of a business. We walk through the first three in full, vision, purpose, and core intent, along with the structure and the test for knowing whether you got them right. We also share the story behind building this tool, including a September that nearly ended the business before a shift in clarity turned the next quarter into the strongest in company history.

From Idea to Action: Season 5 of The Five Facets of Business

Tue, 29 Sep 2026 08:00:00 -0400

Most business owners already have the tools to run their company. Software's never been easier to find. What's hard is the leadership work: get buy-in from the team, put a system into practice, and stay consistent when things get busy.

In Season 5 of The Five Facets of Business™ Podcast, we move past the theory and go straight to the how.

We open the season with a shift in focus. In the past four seasons, we explored what a business needs to grow past its founder. This season, we take on the next question: what does it take to lead a business that runs on an operating system, day to day?

Each episode tackles one specific problem business leaders face and gives a path forward you can use right away and bring on guests who've put these systems to work in their own businesses, so you hear from leaders who've done the work, not just theorists.

Case Study #10: "Everyone is Working Hard...But We're Not Aligned." with Hannah and Dave

Mon, 18 May 2026 07:00:00 -0400

A common pitfall in business is working without seeing the bigger picture. It's easy to but your head down and just get through the workday. Especially when your company offers a million different services. This might be the problem.

In this weeks episode, Hannah and Dave identify pitfalls in a busy organization without a clear message. They revisit with the A.C.E framework and speak on getting the core business model on the same page. Wanting to provide everything to your customers comes at a significant work cost.

Start small, keep it simple and scale when the time is right. The most important part is making sure everyone is rowing in the same direction.

Case Study #9: "We're Profitable, but Cash is Always Tight." with Hannah and Dave

Mon, 11 May 2026 07:00:00 -0400

Cash is King and it is the obvious make or break foundation to any company. It is also the most difficult component to wrangle if it get's out of hand. Talking about money is a difficult thing to do. It can be an emotional powder keg.

However, money works best with a plan and accountability. You can't lose sight of profit if you know where it is most times and where it's going in the future. Plan and Profit go together like peas and carrots!

Case Study #8: "We Have Meetings Constantly...And Still Nothing Moves." with Hannah and Dave

Mon, 04 May 2026 07:00:00 -0400

May the 4th be with you! Hannah and Dave do not discuss Star Wars in this episode unfortunately. However, they do discuss the importance of alignment in meetings.

An often overlooked component for business is the efficiency and clarity around meetings. How often do you or your team hop on to a call and nothing seems to get done? It's more than likely that the one's leading the call aren't quite sure what they are trying to do with the meeting.

Each meeting should have purpose and that purpose should be in line with the next step forward in your company. "Who is doing what, by when?"

Case Study #7: "We Implemented a System...But We’re Only Using 10% of It." with Hannah and Dave

Mon, 27 Apr 2026 07:00:00 -0400

In this weeks episode, Hannah and Dave discuss the problems that occur when implementing a new system. Everyone is subject to the whims of change and often times it's hard to navigate your way through it.

Hannah and Dave often see this when applying tools such as Clickup or Monday.com. It can feel like an extra step but when utilized properly it allows less margin for error and everyone, on each team, can rest easy knowing where what stage there work is in.

Case Study #6: "We're Data-Driven, But We're Still Guessing." with Liz Douglass

Mon, 20 Apr 2026 07:00:00 -0400

Numbers tell the story and this weeks guest, Liz Douglass, thinks its an essential step toward growth. She reinforces the point that a company can have all the data capture in the world but you have to know what it's for and how to read it.

As our host Dave mentions, "17" is just a number until you give it context. Well, "17" what? A small question but significant in it's application and navigation.

Liz's helps founder-led businesses turn chaos into order so they can grow without the owner carrying everything. Her work focuses on aligning leadership, improving execution, and using AI to build data stories - a decision engine that tells you what the next best step is for your business. At the end of the day, she help's CEOs build businesses that run better—and feel lighter to lead.

Case Study #5: "We Hired Great People...And it Still Didn't Fix It" with Hannah and Dave

Mon, 13 Apr 2026 07:00:00 -0400

Sometimes big name talent doesn't always fix the issue. A-players can be a huge asset to any team but they must know what they are walking into. The entire company should be on the same page about what is expected and how takes charge of what.

In this weeks episode Hannah and Dave breakdown explain why hiring top talent doesn't always get you what you need. All growth comes back to systems. If you want your A-player to drive the boat the have to know how the thing works. If they don't then everyone goes down with the ship.

Case Study #4: “We Set Goals Every Year…But They Don’t Change Anything” with Hannah and Dave

Mon, 06 Apr 2026 07:00:00 -0400

Big goals are overwhelming and can looking daunting if your team is already focused on so many other things.

In this weeks episode Hannah and Dave discuss first and middle actions a company can take in order to make big goals obtainable and structurally advantageous.

Things always look easier on paper but you can't reach the top using conceptual ladders with missing rungs. Build steps then climb.

Case Study #3: "Our Marketing Isn't Working." with Stephen Hilgart

Mon, 30 Mar 2026 07:00:00 -0400

What works? Keep it. What doesn't? Get rid of it. And what have you removed that actually seemed to work in the past? Bring it back to the table.

Our guest Stephen Hilgart asks these questions all the time to his clients. On paper they seem simple but in the throws of day to day operations they can often be over looked.

In this weeks episode, Dave, Hannah and Stephen explore a case study in which marketing is strong but unorganized. A common thread among their answers comes back to story. Is it clear? Is it simple? And does it work?

Stephen Hilgart is known as The Obsessed Strategist. A business growth expert, AI evangelist, and founder of Scale & Success, an AI automation agency helping entrepreneurs implement AI systems that scale faster and work smarter. He’s built and sold three 7-figure businesses of his own, and spent nearly a decade as the top speaker and trainer for Tony Robbins — delivering more than 5,000 workshops and keynotes around the world. Stephen’s mission is simple: to give entrepreneurs the strategies and technology to punch above their weight, scale with confidence, and compete at the highest level — because a small business should never mean small thinking.

'The Next Level, The Next Devil' with Hilary Porta

Mon, 29 Sep 2025 07:00:00 -0400

In this weeks episode we discuss the age old question of "Who do you want to be?" Our expert Hilary Porta sheds light on the value of slowing down and checking in.

No matter what level of business you find yourself in their will always be problems and challenges, the difference in growth however, is what you're willing to deal with. As she say's "The next level, the next devil."

Hilary helps high-performing humans—founders, professional athletes, celebrities, titans—break free from their own mental prisons, rewrite the stories keeping them stuck, and design lives that feel as liberated and lit up as they secretly crave. This isn’t mindset fluff or basic “change your thoughts” coaching....think: neuroscience backed, nervous system rewiring, identity expansion and business/life strategy all woven together. Fun fact: She died twice and came back twice as dangerous!

He specializes in driving more effective cooperation amongst leaders. He obsesses about pressure and its impact on human dynamics and derives a sense of purpose from helping leaders not transform but find common ground and make practical shifts in behavior where it really counts.

Stephen is the Founder and Showrunner of Hiddn, Co-Founder of Align Collective, and host of the Spare Me podcast. He is also a combat veteran, a dual citizen of Israel and the United States, and a speaker on finding your edge in business and in life through grief and trauma.
