Guest: Jess Whatman, Founder & CEO of AgentSyncMost founders don’t fail at delegation; they fail at the mindset behind it. Jess scaled AgentSync to multi–seven figures in 3 years by hiring Elite VAs & OBMs, not just task-takers. Her team now helps hundreds of businesses reach six figures faster. If you want to save time & create simple marketing, steady sales, and systems you can run in real life this one’s for you.We cover (impactful, no fluff)

I built a six-figure agency… and then I walked away from it all
Launching this show brought up all the wobblies. I changed the cover art two days before go live, questioned my voice, and felt every client’s launch nerves in my own body. In this solo I share a real life update and the story behind closing my six figure creative agency, becoming a solo parent, taking a day job to bridge the gap, then rebuilding a coaching business from zero with systems and support from day one.
You’ll hear
● A behind the scenes launch week recap, the jitters, the last-minute art change, and what actually matters when you are in the messy middle
● The truth about my agency’s rapid growth, 26 clients in seven months, six figures fast, and why it still broke without foundations
● The moment everything changed, separation, solo parenting, capacity reality, and giving myself permission to pause
● The rebuild plan, a day job for stability, a VA from day one, an extra daycare day, and designing a business around school pickups, holidays and life
● What I am doing differently now, offers, ops, SOPs, and marketing that is simple enough to run in real life
● Why a day job can be the smartest strategy while you stack proof and rebuild your baseline
● An invitation to watch me rebuild in public so you can borrow the steps

Guests: Juliet Lever & Paul Elisio; Founders of Evolve & Relaunch
You’ve heard “your business is a reflection of you”; but what happens when the version of you running it isn’t evolved enough to handle what you say you want?
In this deep, laughter-filled convo with transformation coaches Juliet Lever and Paul Elisio, we unpack why growth stalls when you cling to old programming, how to “embrace the fog” when everything feels uncertain, and what it really takes to become the person your next level requires.
You’ll hear:
● Why personal growth and business growth are the same journey (and how to spot when you’ve hit an inner ceiling).
● “Embracing the fog”; how to build safety in the unknown when your nervous system screams nope.
● Why NLP & hypnotherapy are less about “reprogramming” and more about coming home to yourself.
● The 3 most common unconscious patterns keeping coaches stuck: fear of success, fear of failure, and the “not good enough” loop.
● Shadow work in real life; using triggers as teachers (and when it’s actually time to say no).
● Relationships as mirrors: how Juliet & Paul coach each other through blind spots and model conscious partnership in business and love.
● Why your family’s version of you isn’t the current you; and how to hold boundaries without burning bridges.
● The real cost of not doing the inner work; from relationships to revenue.
Listen now and remember: your business can only grow to the extent that you do.

We discuss trauma, transformation, and emotional healing. If this brings stuff up for you, please reach out to a qualified mental health professional.
If you’ve been stressed for more than seven minutes, you’re not thinking like a CEO; you’re reacting like a seven-year-old.
In this raw convo with registered psychologist Kaz Amos, we unpack how chronic stress hijacks your decisions (and your business) and build a baseline you can actually live in.
You’ll hear
What stress looks like in real life: hyper-independence, defensiveness, forgetfulness, impulse decisions; and why you don’t notice it.
Fight / Flight / Freeze / Fawn in business (spot yours in 60 seconds).
Baseline vs burnout: finding your eustress “sweet spot” so performance goes up while pressure goes down.
A simple regulation stack (breath, body, boundaries, outsourcing) you can use this week.
Why asking for help is strategy, not weakness (cleaners, daycare, OBMs, VAs as nervous-system supports).
Scripts to renegotiate deadlines without burning bridges.
How to rebuild capacity after long-term stress or trauma—and the 51% Rule for starting before you feel ready.

I’ve launched podcasts for others, spoken on stages, taught rooms… and still nearly cancelled my own studio day. In this raw kickoff, I share how perfectionism, fear of being seen, and my policing past (where you need 100% certainty) collided; plus the simple mindset shift that got me to press record: the 51% Rule.
What’s inside (no timestamps, just impact)
Why waiting for 100% certainty keeps coaches stuck (and how my police training fed that pattern).
The 51% Rule: what it is and how to use it to launch, sell, or take messy action.
Spotting when you want to quit because it’s scary vs. because it isn’t aligned.
A 10-minute “Rip the Band-Aid” plan to move through perfectionism and hit publish.
Building confidence from evidence (not vibes): tiny wins → Portfolio of Proof.
The messy middle I’m committing to document as I rebuild from zero.

Pick one 51% action you can take in the next 24 hours: book the studio, draft a 3-line outline, record a messy first take, or post a “coming soon.” Momentum first, polish later.

Welcome to Performance Starts Within, the show for mindset & transformational coaches who want stupidly simple marketing, steady sales, and systems you can run in real life.
I’m your host Tash Miller; former Creative Agency Owner turned Business Strategist. I’ve launched podcasts for others… and still nearly quit starting my own. In this trailer, I share the honest nerves, the evidence-built confidence, and exactly what you can expect every Friday.
Starting scared: perfectionism, being seen, and why confidence is built with evidence (not vibes).
From frontline policing to high-performance sales: what reading behaviour under pressure taught me about results.
The show promise: one story, one simple system, one next step; every episode.
My mission: help 100 coaches build to $100K; without losing themselves.
If you’re done with hustle theatre and want practical steps you can use this week; boundary scripts, sales by invitation (not pressure), and systems that actually hold; you’re in the right place. I’m documenting the messy middle as I rebuild, so you get the real thing, not the highlight reel.
