Are you still playing by old business rules? In this episode, I reveal what’s out—and what’s in—for today’s founders. I’ll walk you through 10 key shifts that are changing the game, so you can lead with purpose, stay ahead of the curve, and build a business that’s aligned with where the world is going.

In this episode of the Business Growth Architect Show: Founders of the Future, I’m not holding back. I walk you through the 10 things you must stop doing now—because they’re not just outdated, they’re killing your momentum. From overhyped AI to the fantasy of the four-hour workweek, to cringe-worthy first-date-naked LinkedIn pitches, I’m calling out the bad advice and broken playbooks that just don’t work anymore.

We’re in a rupture, not a disruption—and that means the systems we relied on are collapsing. But that’s not bad news. It’s your opportunity to stop playing small and lead like the founder of the future. I’ll show you what’s in: resonance, self-care as strategy, conscious business models, nimble decision-making, and community-driven growth. It’s not about pretending you have it all together. It’s about building something real—on purpose, with purpose.

If you’re done following trends and ready to build the business you actually want to live inside of, I invite you to schedule your free Uncovery Session at UncoverySession.com. I’ll help you see what’s next—and how to make your next move your best one yet.

Tired of complicated marketing strategies that don’t deliver? Melanie Gorman, founder of Crownsville Media, shares how to attract leads by being real, staying consistent, and ditching fear-based tactics. If you want a smarter, more human way to get clients—without the hype—this conversation is for you.

Melanie Gorman didn’t set out to be a digital strategist—she started her career in mental health. But like many purpose-driven professionals, she quickly realized that her impact would be limited unless she learned how to reach clients. That realization set her on a new path—one that turned her into a sought after marketing partner for therapists, coaches, and entrepreneurs who want to market themselves authentically.

In this lets-keep-it-real episode of the Business Growth Architect Show: Founders of the Future, Melanie shares how her background in therapy helped her decode the emotional blocks that keep many business owners stuck—especially when it comes to promoting themselves. From why we feel resistance to marketing, to the subtle self-worth issues that show up in client attraction, she goes into why we want to find and yet avoid doing the work to find leads and offers grounded, compassionate solutions. Melanie also outlines how to use your intake calls, website language, and SEO strategy to align with your values and attract leads—without ever resorting to fear-based messaging.

Marketing has a bad name, mostly because of outdated fear based tactics. This episode offers a mindset shift. Whether you’re burned out from bro-marketing, confused by SEO, or struggling to explain what makes you different, Melanie offers clarity, strategy, and a deep respect for the real humans behind every brand.

Tired networking events and constant pitching yourself without sounding like you selling something? In this episode, Steve Ramona shares the exact method he uses to build authentic, high-value relationships that drive real business growth. Learn how asking the right questions—and listening with intention—can turn strangers into supporters, and conversations into opportunities.

Forget everything you’ve learned about networking. In this episode of The Business Growth Architect Show, I sit down with Founder of the Future Steve Ramona—host of Doing Business with a Servant’s Heart—to talk about something most entrepreneurs are getting completely wrong: how we build relationships in business. Steve has built a thriving podcast and community not through pitching or value propositions, but through presence and intention. He’s not interested in surface level polite conversions—he’s committed to connection.

Steve breaks down his ASLA method, a simple but powerful framework that starts with asking, listening, asking again, and taking aligned action. Show up in service—without hidden agendas—and being willing to build trust before making an ask. That’s why people are constantly referring him, inviting him, and wanting to collaborate with him. It’s not magic but how relationships develop when you treat people like people, not prospects.

Maybe your outreach falls flat, or your efforts don’t feel aligned. Steve reminded me that asking isn’t weakness—it’s an invitation for deeper connection. And giving value without expectation? That’s how we build connections that sustain over time.

🎧 Tune in now to hear how you can lead with service and why you don’t need more strategy—you need more heart.

📨 To learn more or work with Steve, visit Doing Business with a Servant’s Heart or reach out directly at stever1961@gmail.com. His mentoring sessions and podcast workshops are the real deal.

We’ve heard ‘the day I lost it all’ before. But this story is extraordinary. What happens when everything crashes at once—your business, your beliefs, your identity? In this powerful episode of overcoming a massive set of obstacles, Vince Covino shares the day his $60M empire collapsed and how that breakdown led to a breakthrough.

This is one of the most emotional, raw, and thought-provoking interviews I’ve had the privilege of hosting. In this episode of the Business Growth Architect Show, I welcome Vince Covino—serial entrepreneur, CEO of Warrior Sage, and the creator of the Impact Accelerator Summit. We’ve heard ‘the day I lost it all’ before. But this story is extraordinary. What happens when everything crashes at once—your business, your beliefs, your identity? In this powerful episode of overcoming a massive set of obstacles.

Vince opens up about losing his $60 million business, filing for multiple bankruptcies, and watching a life he spent years building completely fall apart, right along with his religious beliefs.

The size of the defeat is massive. And so is the story of awakening, alignment, and what it really means to live an epic life.

Vince was the embodiment of the traditional capitalist—obsessed with shareholder value, exponential growth, and profitability. Until everything collapsed. COVID forced his hand, shutting down locations, freezing income, and devastating a company that had once received a $100 million growth capital offer. As I listened to him describe how he laid off 500 people in 48 hours and tried to hold it all together while quietly losing his faith, I felt the weight of what he’d endured.

Fast forward to today. Vince is a powerful voice in shaping conscious capitalism. He’s helping successful founders align with purpose, raise capital from value-driven investors, and build businesses that don’t just scale—they heal. Through his Impact Accelerator Summit, he’s connecting high-impact leaders with investors who want to see your soul and your spreadsheet.

In our conversation, we talk about the massive shift happening in the investment world and why being vulnerable, authentic, and mission-led is no longer a liability—it’s your greatest asset.

If you're a founder ready to go bigger, but you're not willing to sell your soul to get there, this episode is for you. You’ll walk away with a new understanding of multidimensional success and what it means to grow a business that actually feeds your spirit. Tune in now, and then visit VinceCovino.com to learn more about how Vince is leading the charge for a better, more heart-centered way to build wealth.
