What does it really take to turn a struggling business into a rapidly growing national franchise? For Tim Vogel, CEO and co-founder of Scenthound, the answer wasn't overnight success. It was nearly two decades of persistence, experimentation, and learning when to slow down before scaling up. In this episode of Let's Go Win, JM Ryerson sits down with Tim to explore his remarkable entrepreneurial journey, from launching a mobile dog grooming business that struggled to make money to creating an entirely new category in pet wellness and growing Scenthound to more than 170 locations. Tim shares how he navigated the darkest moments of entrepreneurship, found the right mentors, discovered product-market fit, and built a franchise model designed for sustainable growth. They discuss the importance of patience, surrounding yourself with the right people, creating systems that scale, and leading with purpose rather than simply chasing profits. You'll also discover why Tim believes routine hygiene is the missing fourth essential of dog care and how Scenthound is helping pet owners better understand their dogs' health. The biggest lesson? Success isn't about moving faster. It's about having the persistence to keep going, the humility to keep learning, and the patience to build something that lasts. Whether you're an entrepreneur, business leader, franchise owner, or dog lover, this conversation offers valuable insights into resilience, leadership, business growth, and building a company that makes a difference.

What if one of the most powerful principles for success in business, leadership, relationships, and life was also one of the simplest? In the inaugural episode of the new chapter of Let’s Go Win, JM Ryerson shares a lesson that has shaped every business he has built, every relationship he has developed, and countless opportunities throughout his career: do what you say you’re going to do. JM explores why accountability and follow-through are essential for building trust, and why we often keep commitments to other people while breaking the promises we make to ourselves. He challenges listeners to recognize the fears that hold them back, take action anyway, and build courage through consistent follow-through. He also explains why underpromising and overdelivering can transform the way people experience you as a leader, salesperson, business partner, friend, or family member. When you make a commitment, your actions either strengthen trust or slowly erode it. This episode sets the foundation for the new Let’s Go Win: practical strategies, mindset shifts, and conversations designed to help you become a better leader, build a stronger business, strengthen your relationships, and create a better life. Because winning isn’t about perfection. It’s about showing up consistently, doing the work, and becoming a little better every day.

Most leaders master the outer game — success, recognition, and results — but Pauline Nguyen believes the real work begins on the inside. In this episode of Let’s Go Win, JM Ryerson sits down with Pauline to explore how trauma, resilience, nervous system regulation, and self-mastery shape the way we lead, build teams, and handle pressure.

Most entrepreneurs start a business for freedom — but too often, the business ends up running their life. In this episode of Let’s Go Win, JM Ryerson sits down with Allison Maslan, a business owner of over 40 years who has built nine companies and helped mentor more than 150,000 founders and CEOs around the world. Allison shares why growing a business and scaling a business are not the same thing — and why so many founders hit the seven-figure ceiling because they do not have the structure, team, or systems to move forward. Allison also opens up about the wake-up call that forced her to rethink leadership, delegation, and burnout. She shares practical insights on building a team-managed company, letting go of control, hiring better, and creating a vision that your team can truly rally behind. This episode is for entrepreneurs, founders, CEOs, and business owners who want to scale without losing their health, freedom, or purpose.

What if the biggest thing holding you back is not your talent, your work ethic, or your goals — but the way your mind talks to you? In this episode of Let’s Go Win, JM Ryerson sits down with Collin Henderson to talk about the inner game of success, self-worth, mindset training, and why so many high performers secretly tie their value to outcomes. Collin shares how anxiety, perfectionism, and pressure shaped his early life — and how vulnerability, coaching, and mental performance work helped him transform. This conversation is a powerful reminder that winning is not just about the scoreboard. It is about learning how to control what you can control, fall in love with the process, and reset your mindset when life gets hard. Collin also shares practical tools for leaders, parents, athletes, and high performers — including how to build better self-talk, create elite behaviors, and stop letting results define who you are. 00:00 Meet Collin Henderson00:19 Why successful people can still feel unfulfilled01:45 The hidden inner game behind high performance03:09 Asking for help is a sign of strength05:13 How your mindset is conditioned06:30 Process over outcome08:27 Are parents putting too much pressure on young athletes?14:04 Building your MVP: mission, values, and purpose18:34 Why chasing results can destroy confidence23:22 Why every leader needs a clear philosophy25:29 Average vs. elite behaviors29:29 Always be in practice31:34 What do you really want?36:24 What to do when you are not okay39:18 Are you living by design or by default?42:19 Three ways to reset your mindset46:38 Where to connect with Collin Henderson #CollinHenderson #JMRyerson #LetsGoWin #YourMindIsLyingToYou #MindsetTraining #HighPerformance #ProcessOverOutcome #SelfWorth #MentalPerformance #InnerGame #Leadership #PersonalGrowth #SuccessMindset #PodcastEpisode Best Topic TimestampsHashtags Learn more about your ad choices.

What if the key to high performance is not doing more — but learning when to slow down? In this episode of Let’s Go Win, JM Ryerson sits down with Jay Abbasi, speaker, coach, and host of Unstuck with Jay Abbasi, for a powerful conversation about pressure, performance, leadership, and presence. Jay shares why so many people today are overwhelmed by constant notifications, endless tasks, and the pressure to keep up — and why the human brain was not designed to live in a constant state of “go, go, go.” Jay also explains how leaders and high achievers can protect their time, create space for creative thinking, and perform at a high level without sacrificing their sanity. From putting your phone on silent, to blocking sacred time on your calendar, to practicing what he calls “mind freeness,” Jay offers practical tools for anyone trying to succeed without burning out. You’ll also hear Jay’s lessons from Tesla, including how to pivot quickly, let go of the way things were, and create innovative solutions with a strong team. He also shares why great leadership requires patience, vulnerability, and the ability to pause and truly listen before rushing to fix everything. If you are ambitious, overwhelmed, leading through change, or trying to build a better rhythm in life and business, this episode will challenge you to rethink what productivity, leadership, and success really mean.
