In this episode of Working/Broken, hosts Nick Richtsmeier and Brad Farris dive deep into the burning debate: Is it better to grow naturally, or should you aggressively scale your business? With wit and candor, they explore how the meaning of “growth” has evolved over time—from organic, sustainable expansion to the manufactured, high-speed push for scale that risks sacrificing client experience. Drawing on industry insights, personal anecdotes (including Brad’s weight-loss journey as a metaphor for shrinking old habits), and even a nod to that iconic Jerry Maguire moment, they challenge the status quo. Whether you're an investment advisor, a creative services leader, or simply a business owner questioning the path to success, this episode will inspire you to rethink your strategy and decide which game you really want to win.
Tune in and join the conversation—because friends don't let friends work broken!
