  • S1Ep229 Redefining Success Through Return on Life with Randy Dyck

    S1Ep229 Redefining Success Through Return on Life with Randy Dyck
    May 1 2025
    Business owners are often told that growth is the ultimate measure of success. Revenue, units sold, hours worked—these metrics dominate boardrooms, coaching programs, and strategy sessions. But what happens when all that growth still leaves you feeling burned out, disconnected, and unfulfilled? What if the real target wasn’t just a return on investment, but a return on life? Randy Dyck, a real estate veteran with more than 7,000 homes sold over the course of 30 years, knows that question all too well. After reaching the pinnacle of professional success, he found himself asking what it all really meant. The numbers were there. The accolades were there. But something was missing. That realization became a turning point, reshaping his entire outlook on business, leadership, and personal fulfillment. Return on life isn’t a rejection of financial success—it’s an expansion of it. It’s a mindset shift that challenges entrepreneurs to pursue not just profit, but purpose. To build businesses that serve their lives, not consume them. For Randy, this means aligning his coaching and leadership around fulfillment, energy, and authenticity. Through his Scientific Scaling Systems, he now helps real estate professionals grow their businesses without sacrificing the things that matter most—time, relationships, health, and meaning. Throughout the conversation, it becomes clear that this shift isn’t just philosophical—it’s strategic. Entrepreneurs often believe they need to choose between success and satisfaction. But Randy argues that when you prioritize alignment, everything improves: clarity, performance, and yes—profit. When you operate in your zone of genius, when your goals are rooted in your deeper why, business growth becomes not just sustainable, but enjoyable. That shift starts with awareness. Randy shares how a personal exercise—what he calls an “energy audit”—can reveal where your time and effort are truly going. By tracking which tasks drain energy and which fuel it, entrepreneurs can begin to design their day, team, and business structure around what gives them life. From there, it becomes easier to delegate, automate, or eliminate the rest. This idea of self-alignment also ties into how Randy views leadership. It’s not about declaring authority; it’s about modeling curiosity, growth, and service. His leadership equation—learner, leverage, legacy—flips the typical script. The goal isn’t just to scale a company, but to elevate others along the way. When leaders focus on being lifelong learners, sharing what they’ve learned, and helping others create their own legacy, they create businesses that thrive with purpose. In a time where burnout is rampant and “busy” is worn like a badge of honor, return on life offers an alternative—a model where success includes health, family, freedom, and fulfillment. Entrepreneurs don’t have to sacrifice everything to grow. They simply need to redefine what growth means. If you're tired of chasing metrics that don’t deliver meaning, if you’re ready to design a business that energizes rather than drains you, Randy’s perspective will resonate. Success is more than just scale—it’s significance. And when you start building for both, the return on life is exponential. Watch the full episode on YouTube.

  • S1Ep228 The Power of Entrepreneurship and Longevity with Blair LaCorte

    S1Ep228 The Power of Entrepreneurship and Longevity with Blair LaCorte
    Apr 24 2025
    Entrepreneurship and Longevity aren’t often discussed in the same sentence, but that’s exactly where the future of high-performance leadership is headed. In a time when business moves faster than ever and disruption is the norm, those who sustain success aren’t just building companies—they’re building resilience from the inside out. Blair LaCorte, Managing Director of LaCorte Ventures, brings a rare perspective on what it takes to lead over the long term. His career spans executive roles across aerospace, artificial intelligence, tech, entertainment, defense, and private equity. From startup growth to IPOs and complex mergers, LaCorte has not only built companies—he’s rebuilt them, restructured them, and prepared them for sustainable scalability. It’s this unique lens that positions him as a standout voice in the intersection of entrepreneurship and longevity. LaCorte’s approach to leadership is rooted in operational excellence, but it’s also deeply informed by neuroscience, systems thinking, and human performance. He doesn’t just advise organizations—he helps rewire how leaders think about health, decision-making, and the environments they operate in. The topic of longevity often focuses on lifespan. LaCorte challenges that by shifting the conversation to healthspan—how long a leader can operate at their peak, not just how long they live. For entrepreneurs, executives, and founders constantly managing pressure, stress, and uncertainty, this distinction is critical. Peak performance isn’t about grinding harder. It’s about creating a foundation that allows for clarity, recovery, and sustainability. Throughout his career, LaCorte has worked with over 100 companies as an investor, board member, and adviser. His experience includes leading major transformations and pioneering innovation in fields that rarely cross paths—an advantage he attributes to his curiosity and pattern recognition across industries. From co-founding mastermind networks to helping companies navigate explosive growth, his perspective on entrepreneurship and longevity is not theoretical—it’s hard-earned. What sets LaCorte apart is his commitment to systems-level thinking. He views business as a sport—one that demands preparation, precision, and performance, but also recovery, connection, and alignment. His emphasis on building value-based teams, fostering deep connections, and operating with authenticity isn’t just cultural advice—it’s a competitive edge. This mindset extends into how LaCorte advises leaders to manage themselves. It’s not just about productivity hacks or strategic frameworks. It’s about building internal infrastructure—mental, emotional, and physical—that allows leaders to make better decisions, manage complexity, and stay adaptable over time. Entrepreneurship and longevity, in his view, are inextricably linked. Without personal optimization, professional growth eventually hits a ceiling. LaCorte’s leadership philosophy also underscores the power of community. He’s a firm believer in the role of masterminds, not just as a tool for knowledge exchange, but as a critical piece of human connection. In an age of information overload, it’s not about accessing more data—it’s about curating the right voices, having trusted peers who challenge your assumptions, and staying accountable to continuous growth. His work in launching the Pinnacle Performers Elite Mastermind reflects this belief. By bringing together leaders from diverse industries, LaCorte facilitates a space where pattern recognition, vulnerability, and innovation intersect. These environments are engineered for growth—not just in revenue, but in mindset and mission. The conversation around entrepreneurship and longevity is only becoming more urgent. As business leaders face rising demands and ever-faster innovation cycles, the ones who thrive will be those who build with endurance in mind. It’s no longer enough to scale fast. It’s about scaling with intention, clarity, and care—for your business, your people, and yourself. Blair LaCorte is part of a new wave of business thinkers who recognize that long-term impact doesn’t come from burnout. It comes from balance, recovery, and relentless alignment to purpose. He’s lived it, led it, and continues to guide others to do the same. Watch the full episode on YouTube.

  • S1Ep227 Transforming Culture Through Caregiving in the Workplace with Sue Ryan

    S1Ep227 Transforming Culture Through Caregiving in the Workplace with Sue Ryan
    Apr 17 2025
    Caregiving in the workplace is a conversation too few leaders are having—and it’s costing businesses more than they realize. Hidden behind turnover rates, disengaged employees, rising healthcare costs, and inconsistent performance is a workforce silently struggling to manage dual roles. Employees at every level, from entry-level staff to the C-suite, are balancing the demands of their careers while caring for aging parents, children with special needs, or loved ones facing health challenges. Yet most organizations aren’t equipped to support them, and many employees never speak up. Sue Ryan, Chief Inspirationalist and a strategist for workplace caregiving solutions, brings this challenge into sharp focus. Drawing from over 30 years of personal caregiving experience and professional leadership, Sue shines a light on what she calls the workforce blind spot—an exponentially growing crisis that's costing U.S. businesses an estimated $33 billion annually in lost productivity and turnover. The issue isn’t just personal—it’s systemic. And it’s avoidable. As the U.S. population ages rapidly, with those over 65 set to outnumber those under 18 by 2030, the pressure on working caregivers is increasing fast. The fastest-growing demographic in the country is now adults over 85. This demographic shift is creating ripple effects in every industry, affecting employee well-being, engagement, and long-term retention. Leaders who ignore this trend risk falling behind—not just in compassion, but in performance. Supporting caregiving in the workplace doesn’t mean overhauling business models or adding burdensome policies. In fact, many solutions already exist within organizations; they just haven’t been adapted to meet this need. Sue breaks down how simple shifts in culture—starting with top-level leadership—can make a meaningful difference. It begins with normalizing the conversation. When employees feel safe acknowledging their caregiving responsibilities, it opens the door to flexibility, planning, and improved collaboration. Business leaders often assume caregiving is an HR issue. That’s a costly mistake. When the executive team leads with clarity and openness, human resources can activate systems, provide training for managers, and integrate caregiving into team planning and scheduling. But without visible, top-down acknowledgment, the conversation stalls before it ever starts. Employees who can’t speak up often leave, taking their skills and institutional knowledge with them. Sue also draws attention to what she calls the “sandwich generation”—employees, often in their 40s or 50s, who are supporting both aging parents and dependent children while maintaining full-time roles. These team members bring valuable experience and insight to their companies, but their capacity is being stretched thin. Ignoring their reality leads to burnout, disengagement, and missed opportunity. Normalizing caregiving in the workplace can be as straightforward as updating onboarding conversations, creating safe spaces for disclosure, and encouraging leadership to model openness. Organizations like Deloitte, Starbucks, and Amazon are already seeing measurable results from acknowledging and addressing this reality—improvements in productivity, employee satisfaction, and retention. The shift doesn’t require large financial investments—it requires intention. Companies already have many of the operational, legal, and financial structures in place to support this evolution. The missing piece is leadership. When executives set the tone, the culture follows. It becomes easier for teams to adapt, cross-train, and collaborate in ways that support both business goals and employee well-being. This is more than a human resources initiative—it’s a business growth strategy. Addressing caregiving in the workplace is about keeping your best people, increasing engagement, and reducing the hidden costs of turnover. With the right awareness and tools, organizations can create environments where employees bring their full selves to work—without hiding a critical part of their lives.
