Ep 45: What if the reason your business feels complicated isn't because it IS complicated—but because you've MADE it complicated?

Bud Heaton, the go-to marketing mentor and strategist for top producers in insurance, coaching, and service industries, has perfected the art of building automated marketing machines that sell without stopping. But more importantly? He's mastered the art of radical simplicity in a world obsessed with overcomplication.

In this raw, unfiltered conversation, Bud and Sarah dive deep into the stuff that actually matters—faith, marriage, parenting, providing, and what it really means to be a "warrior at peace." Bud pulls zero punches as he unpacks why entrepreneurs lose sight of their vision, how the parable of talents rewrites our relationship with wealth, and why understanding someone's worldview changes everything.

This is not your typical marketing conversation. It's a masterclass in living with integrity, building without burnout, and getting over yourself long enough to pursue what you actually want.

If you've ever felt like you're dragging your team (or yourself) through the water while everyone else is wakeboarding behind you, this episode will shake you awake.

In this episode, you'll discover:

✔️ Why entrepreneurs overcomplicate everything—and the wakeboarding analogy that explains it perfectly

✔️ How the parable of talents rewrites the Christian perspective on wealth and ambition

✔️ The difference between "entrepreneur" and "intrapreneur" and why Bud chose the latter for years

✔️ Why "money is the root of all evil" is incomplete theology—and what's actually missing

✔️ How being a "girl dad" completely transformed Bud's capacity for empathy

✔️ Why understanding worldview is the antidote to keyboard warriors and cancel culture

✔️ What it means to be a "warrior at peace"—and why most entrepreneurs lose the battle

✔️ How to have it all NOW instead of spending your wealth trying to reclaim your health later

This episode is for entrepreneurs working harder than ever but losing what matters most, fathers who want to show up fully at home AND win in business, and anyone wrestling with the tension between ambition and faith.

Ep 44: What if grinding like the guys is actually destroying your body?

Lori Finlay's health crashed at 42—hormonal chaos, chronic fatigue, and doctors telling her it was "all in her head." She refused to accept that answer.

After 15 years diving into epigenetics and functional medicine, Lori healed her body. Now at 65, she's healthier and stronger than she was at 42. She teaches female entrepreneurs how to unlock their genetic blueprint, balance hormones, and restore lost energy.

This conversation is a wake-up call. We're talking about why women can't operate like men in business (we have 16 times LESS testosterone), how ignoring your cycle sabotages success, and why slowing down might be the most effective strategy you've never tried.

In this episode, you'll discover:

✅ Why women in their 30s are experiencing perimenopause symptoms

✅ The hidden cost of "grinding like a man" with a woman's physiology

✅ How to work WITH your cycle for maximum productivity

✅ What the Dutch test reveals (and why you need one)

✅ Why Western medicine dismisses women—and how to advocate for yourself

✅ The difference between "normal aging" and optimal health

If you've been told "you're fine" when you know something's wrong—this is for you.

Ep 42: Jaime Cross was desperate. Sitting in a utility company office surrounded by people who'd given up, crying over a $12.50 gift card her husband couldn't sell, she knew something had to change.

That night, she prayed a bold prayer: "God, show me a billion-dollar idea."

What happened next launched a journey from garage apothecary to serving 1 million+ people and generating $50 million in revenue. But the real breakthrough wasn't in the business strategy, it was in discovering that true wellness must precede true wealth.

As a board certified doctor of natural health, Jaime has spent 15 years helping women heal from the inside out through deep detoxification and whole plant skincare. She's a master herbalist, mother of five boys, married for nearly 23 years, and living proof that you don't have to sacrifice your health to build wealth.

✔️ The billion-dollar prayer that changed everything

✔️ Why wellness must come before wealth (not after)

✔️ How to be a "good mom" while building a multimillion-dollar business

✔️ The "dirty three" foods to eliminate for true healing

Ep 41: Alma Curran shouldn’t be here.

Raised in chaos, shaped by war, and convinced all men were dangerous, she had every reason to repeat the patterns she grew up in. Instead, she built a 19-year, deeply connected, God-centered marriage — and now she helps couples do the same.
