The Measuring Post

The Measuring Post

The Measuring Post is a podcast about growth, not perfection. It’s a place to pause, reflect, and measure what actually matters in your life, your work, and your personal development. Not by comparing yourself to others, but by comparing who you are today to who you were yesterday. I'm Joe Massa, and I created this show because I believe growth isn't a solo journey. Each week, you’ll hear thoughtful interviews with incredible guests: entrepreneurs, leaders, creatives, and everyday people doing meaningful work, sharing real experiences, lessons learned, and practical insights you can apply right away. These conversations are designed to help you think differently, grow intentionally, and move forward with clarity. Alongside the interviews, you’ll also find The Daily Measure, short, bite-sized solo episodes focused on simple words of wisdom and actionable ideas you can use in your daily life. Think of these as quick check-ins to help you stay grounded, focused, and consistent. This isn’t about hype or shortcuts. It’s about honest conversations, small improvements, and growing together over time. If you’re someone who values progress, reflection, and becoming a better version of yourself, you’re in the right place. Subscribe on your favorite podcast platform, join the conversation, and grow with us.

Janna Scott didn't set out to build a software company. She set out to answer a simple question her clients kept asking: are my crypto taxes accurate?

So she ran an experiment. She took one wallet with 350 clean, simple transactions — straight buys, sells, and conversions — and ran it through every major crypto tax product on the market. Fourteen products. Some of them backed by multi-billion dollar companies. Two of the...

Sean Martin sang his first opera at seven years old in a 5,000-seat tent in Mendocino. By twenty, he was an airborne infantryman jumping into Iraq on the 18X special forces fast-track contract. He came home with a Combat Infantryman Badge, the death of his best friend Jeff Bisson on his conscience, and PTSD the Army barely recognized.

What the military taught him about turning on a "seventh gear" of combat readiness, it didn't teach...

People got excited about big tax refunds, and Gary had to break the news that they'd just loaned the IRS money for a year at zero interest. That moment defined how he thinks about wealth: the function of every dollar matters m...

Ben Millan pulled back the curtain on what most financial advisors won't tell you about retirement planning. After pivoting his practice to focus exclusively on seniors during COVID, he developed a contrarian philosophy: forget the famous 4% rule and chasing a magic dollar amount. The only number that matters is your income gap, the difference between your guaranteed monthly income (Social Security, pension) and what you actually n...
