The Crushing Debt Podcast is for people who want to eliminate the financial bullies in their lives. It is for listeners who want more money at the end of the month, rather than more month at the end of the money. The podcast provides answers around such topics as real estate litigation, partition, quiet title, chapter 7 liquidation, chapter 13 reorganization, and Chapter 11 business bankruptcies, short sales, loan modifications, creditor harassment and other related topics.
I’m Dan Kirby and I’ve been an entrepreneur since 2001, but in 2017 it all went wrong. I blew up the business. I can laugh about it now but it was no joke at the time, check the trailer. Shame, humiliation, terror. The lot. My business is back on track but I don’t want to blow it up again. So I’m interviewing top entrepreneurs to discover how they’ve turned adversity & failure into growth & success. I’m on a mission to help other business owners – like you – avoid my self-inflicted-sabotage. ...
A podcast about the dreamers, innovators, over-acheivers and their ideas that are building the tomorrow today. The Termsheet is just not about startups. It’s about celebrating the people who take chances and display true grit and resolve against formidable odds. Taking chances doesn’t always result in disproportionate success but it could also result in spectacular failures. But, a failure can become the catalyst for producing a new success and a new win. I am a huge fan of such stories of r ...
A marketer stands in the smouldering ruin of their most excruciating failure, certain that their career will never recover. A small, but insistent voice makes itself heard... "You should go on a podcast and talk about this." Made by marketers for marketers, Marketing Hell uses interviews and discussions with marketing leaders to explore our most spectacular foul ups. We take pleasure in our failures and pick through the rubble to extract one or two lessons that might rescue a sense of profes ...
