Jeff Standrige reveals the steps to transform your job into a meaningful calling, so you can find more fulfillment beyond collecting a paycheck. Discover the simple steps to turn your career into a purpose-driven journey, balancing success with true personal impact.

In this episode of The Business Growth Architect Show, I speak with Jeff Standrige, Managing Director at Innovation Junkie, about how to transform your work into a meaningful calling. Jeff opens up about his “crisis of calling,” that pivotal moment when he realized that professional success didn’t equal personal fulfillment. Instead of abandoning his career, he used it as a foundation to drive impact, a choice that ultimately reshaped how he viewed his work. This is powerful if you feel that your job is a dead end and you are looking for more fulfillment at work.

In our interview, Jeff and I break down his six essential pillars for building a culture of excellence—elements that foster clarity, accountability, and genuine connection across any organization. Here are the first three, you’ll find all six in the interview.

1. Strong Leadership – Every culture of excellence begins with committed leadership. Jeff emphasizes the need for leaders to embody the mission and values of the organization, demonstrating by example how to balance results with relationships, fostering a sense of trust and integrity across the team.

2. Absolute Clarity and Focus – Jeff discusses how clarity around an organization’s mission, vision, and goals aligns every individual’s work with the broader company strategy. When team members understand how their day-to-day contributions support a larger purpose, it drives collective motivation and purpose.

3. Engaged and Committed Teammates – An essential element of any successful culture, Jeff emphasizes the importance of fostering a team that is not only skilled but also genuinely committed to the organization’s mission. Clear roles and responsibilities allow teammates to bring their best selves to work, knowing exactly how they contribute to the team’s success.

For anyone questioning their work’s purpose or looking to lead with intention, this conversation digs into how we can reshape our daily actions to build a fulfilling career. Listen in as Jeff and I discuss the real, practical steps to align your work with your values, so you’re not just clocking in but creating something lasting.

Franco Lofranco shows how using gratitude and high energy attracts success, happiness, and the right people effortlessly. Don’t miss these simple, powerful steps and make success come to you!

This episode of the Business Growth Architect Show is close to my heart. Franco Lofranco takes us through his personal journey from failing as a leader and business owner to becoming a respected entrepreneur, speaker, and author of The Results Vortex Accelerator. Through vulnerability and hard-earned wisdom, Franco unpacks how understanding and managing his own ego, embracing self-awareness, and taking true accountability shifted his entire trajectory—not only in business but also in his personal life and relationships.

We go deep in this episode and unveil Franco’s early entrepreneurial attempts, which, despite his confidence, ended in failure. He admits that he initially blamed external factors and circumstances but soon had a hard realization: that the common factor in every failed business was him. This marked the beginning of his self-awareness journey. With the guidance of trusted mentors, Franco started to confront his own blind spots, ego-driven decisions, and the impact of his actions on those around him. This episode dives deep into these critical moments, highlighting how his ego—rooted in insecurity—was limiting his growth, repelling clients, and breaking down team dynamics. His story serves as a reminder that real change often begins with looking in the mirror.

Franco also tackles the role of accountability, arguing that it’s not just a business tactic but a personal power tool. He suggests that taking ownership of our actions—even in situations that may seem outside our control—gives us the ability to steer our lives in the direction we desire. In his view, accountability is directly linked to empowerment, as it eliminates the need to blame or victimize oneself. Franco encourages our listeners, the BeaHive to confront difficult truths, take responsibility without self-blame, and clean up any messes with integrity.

The episode also dives into the impact of our environment on our energy and mindset, stepping away from negative influences like news and rather finding sources of inspiration through selective podcasts and conversations. What we expose ourselves to, either elevate or drain us.

Franco offers a compassionate reminder: suffering is optional. By reframing obstacles as learning opportunities and laughing at life’s absurdities, Franco emphasizes that we have the power to make life fun, lighthearted, and ultimately more fulfilling. As he puts it, life is short, and we’re not taking anything with us when we go, so why not choose to enjoy the ride?

Tiana Sanchez shares practical tips on how to use civility in leadership and shares how this will help you to build a better company. Discover how respect, clear communication, and purpose-driven leadership can transform your organization and inspire your team to thrive.

This episode drops just as we are in the middle of an election cycle and Tiana Sanchez's message on civility in leadership couldn’t be more on point. She is a powerhouse in leadership, a respected speaker, and CEO of TSI LLC. In our episode she dives deep into the importance of civil leadership and how respect can transform our environments and our workplaces. As the world feels more divided than ever, with tensions and conflicts spilling into our professional lives, Tiana brings a fresh approach that centers on respect, empathy, and a strong sense of community. Her bestselling book, The New C-Suite: Civil Leadership in Action offers a practical blueprint for leaders ready to drive real change, build collaborative teams, and foster a work environment where everyone feels valued.

Tiana’s journey into civil leadership began during a pivotal moment at a conference. Inspired by a company with an incredible commitment to employee well-being, social responsibility, and environmental impact, she shares how Patagonia—a certified B Corp—practices what it preaches, blending ethical practices with high standards for governance, community, and sustainability.

During our conversation, Tiana and I explore how civil leadership goes beyond traditional management styles to create an inclusive, purpose-driven workplace culture. Tiana walks us through her unique framework, built around three core facets: collective social responsibility, community-first thinking, and creative synthesis. Through collective social responsibility, she encourages leaders to consider the bigger impact they’re making on employees, customers, and society.

And here’s the beauty of civil leadership—it’s not just for big corporations. Tiana explains that whether you’re running a small business, managing a team, or even working as a solo entrepreneur, you can adopt civil leadership principles to foster a respectful, supportive, and socially responsible culture. She even offers a preview of her civil leadership evaluation, a tool with questions and exercises to help leaders assess how respect, community impact, and social responsibility are showing up in their work.

A powerful takeaway is when Tiana talks about the "like-hungry" culture of social media and how it impacts modern leadership. Business and civil leaders can easily get trapped in echo chambers, seeking validation instead of real connection. True leadership, she reminds us, requires courage—the courage to welcome disagreement and to push beyond surface-level affirmation.

I invite you to tune in and join us for this thought-provoking conversation that challenges the status quo of leadership and how you chose to handle an o

What’s your revenue limit and how can you break through to the $1 Mill? In this episode, we explore the critical steps you need to finally unlock your earning potential.

In this episode of The Business Growth Architect Show, I guide you through one of the biggest challenges many entrepreneurs face: breaking through the $1 million revenue barrier. Only 4% of entrepreneurs achieve this goal.

If you've been working hard but find yourself stuck at the same revenue level year after year, this episode is for you. I call this cycle the “infinity loop.” Revenue might improve at times, but it often cycles back. Let’s explore the strategies I’ve used to help countless business owners break through the three main obstacles holding them back and achieve real business growth past that $1 Mill mark.

The three essential elements that need alignment are mindset, skillset, and action set. Listen to the show to get all the details.

I also share my experience as a facilitator for the Entrepreneurs’ Organization Accelerator Program, where I’ve helped many reach the million-dollar milestone. This success didn’t happen by chance. I created a structured, strategic process and a curriculum that I’ll walk you through in this episode. We’ll go over why peer-to-peer support works better than traditional masterminds, which often fall short when you’re in the trenches of business growth. I’ve found that consistency, accountability, and breaking goals into 90-day action plans are key to achieving lasting success. Here’s a compelling statistic: taking this approach increases your chances by 75%.

I’m also thrilled to introduce my $1 Million Revenue Barrier Forum, a peer-to-peer accountability group designed specifically for consultants and business owners committed to reaching the million-dollar mark. This program follows a curriculum broken into 90-day segments, focusing on key business areas like revenue generation, team building, and system implementation. The best part? You’ll work directly with me each month, with my full support to keep you on track. This isn’t an online course or traditional mastermind where you’re left on your own. This is a Forum built for accountability, peer-to-peer support, and proven strategies that deliver.

The Forum model is a framework used by major organizations like EO, Vistage, YPO, and more because it creates consistency and keeps you engaged, motivated, and accountable. And, we go deep to remove unconscious barriers to success, money stories and much more. Join a community of like-minded entrepreneurs, all striving for success. I’m personally involved because I know the power of consistent, monthly check-ins. This is how real growth happens—through ongoing support and intentional action.

If you’re a consultant or business owner ready to make a bigger impact and break through revenue barriers, this episode outlines tangible steps you can take. Enrollme

Andrea is a transformational leadership coach and host of the Stand Tall and Own It podcast.

She opens up about the importance of core values in leadership, explaining that values are not just guiding principles but the key to remaining authentic and transparent in every situation.

Andrea emphasizes leading with both influence and empathy.

Her approach to leadership focuses on helping leaders become more intentional with their actions, enabling them to lead with greater impact while staying true to who they are.

Next we discuss the concept of emotional intelligence (EQ) and how understanding both your emotions and those of your team members dramatically improve your leadership effectiveness. She shares real-life examples of how tapping into emotional intelligence resolves conflicts, improves communication, and builds stronger relationships within teams.

Another explains how spiritual and emotional alignment play a role in leadership, helping leaders tap into their true purpose and create a ripple effect that impacts not just their business but the lives of everyone they touch.

Empathy, connection, and authenticity helps you to lead more effectively, build stronger relationships, and create a thriving workplace. Jennifer shows you that when you embrace your humanity, you unlock your team’s full potential.

In this powerful episode of the Business Growth Architect Show, I sit down with Jennifer Nash, the author of Be Human, Lead Human, to dive into what it means to lead with humanity in today’s fast-paced and ever-changing workplace. Jennifer, who is the founder and CEO of Jennifer Nash Coaching and Consulting, shares how you can elevate your leadership beyond traditional methods and embrace a more human-centered approach to leadership. She reveals why being human—not just managing tasks—is the real key to unlocking both personal and professional success.

Jennifer and I explore the key differences between old-school, command-and-control leadership style and a new, more evolved version of leadership that puts people first. The old model of leadership appeals to leaders who feel that leading means that they have to have all the answers, make all the decisions, and dictate directions to their teams.

Jennifer explains that the future leader is someone who doesn’t just manage people but coaches and facilitates them. She describes how this kind of leader enables team members to collaborate, share ideas, and reach common goals more effectively. A successful leader today is one who asks for help, makes others feel valued, and creates a safe space for people to express themselves and grow.

Jennifer also shares her perspective on why leadership training is often delayed by an average of 15 years leading to ineffective management and frustrated employees. She explains why companies must equip leaders with the tools they need to succeed early on, focusing not just on technical skills but on emotional and relational skills that foster better teamwork and collaboration.

Jennifer introduces her concept of the Human Leader Index, a unique tool that helps leaders assess their human and relational capabilities. The index provides leaders with a clear picture of where they stand and offers recommendations on areas for improvement. Jennifer emphasizes that true leadership is not just about hitting performance metrics or achieving KPIs—but about building a deeper connection with your team, making them feel heard, and helping them to succeed.

Jennifer’s message is simple: being human in your leadership approach is the key to unlocking not only your own potential but the potential of everyone around you. She believes that when you as the leader focus on the whole person—recognizing your team's personal and professional dimensions—you create an environment where everyone feels empowered to succeed.

Unlock the secrets to becoming a trusted leader! Join Mitchell Levy as he shares powerful strategies to build your credibility and foster trust in your team and organization.

In this episode, I welcome you to join me in exploring the vital connection between your personal purpose and professional success with Mitchell Levy, a Global Credibility Expert. Mitchell brings a wealth of experience in helping you build trust and credibility in your career. He shares how aligning your purpose with your work can lead to increased fulfillment, motivation, and overall happiness in your life. We’ll also explore why this all goes back to trust.

Mitchell first defines what it means for you to live with purpose. He explains that many people go through life without a clear sense of direction or understanding of their true calling, leading to feelings of dissatisfaction and frustration in their careers. Drawing from his extensive research, he reveals startling statistics: a staggering 90% of people never discover their purpose, while 98% lack clarity on what it means for them. If you find yourself in this group, let this episode serve as a wake-up call if you feel lost or unfulfilled in your current role.

Mitchell emphasizes the importance of authenticity and vulnerability in leadership. He illustrates how a credible leader is genuinely connected to their values and beliefs, creating a sense of trust and respect.

He provides strategies for discovering your true calling and integrating it into your work life. Mitchell shares his proprietary methodology, known as the CPOP (Customer Point of Possibilities), which guides you through reflecting on what excites you, who you want to serve, and how you can make a meaningful impact. Following his process will give you clarity on your passions so that you can leverage them in your professional life.

Mitchell addresses the common challenges you may face when trying to bridge the gap between your personal and professional life. He cites an example where you might initially think it's difficult to pursue your passions, but if you view your job as the financial sponsor that allows you the freedom to explore your true interests outside of work, this shift in mindset can be transformative.

Mitchell invites you to reflect on your own journey and consider what steps you can take to live more authentically in your career. He encourages ongoing self-discovery and embracing the changes that come with aligning your purpose with your professional life.
