116 episodes - English - Latest episode: 6 months ago - ★★★★★ - 10 ratings

Hi, I'm Tristan White - welcome to the Think Big, Act Small Podcast.

______

This podcast exists to inspire bigger thinking in service-based businesses.

After being in business for more than 20 years, I've discovered that many of us who work in small, service-based businesses are all too often stuck in our own heads.

Every day, we're thinking about our businesses and have recurring, often self-limiting thoughts. 

This podcast will bring you a short and inspiring break from those thinking patterns that can limit your growth. 

Ideas, encouragement and inspiration are part of the mix that you'll hear on this podcast to fill your heart, challenge your mind and inspire bigger thinking.

The crew that listens to this podcast are mostly owners and leaders of businesses with 5-50 team members.

They enjoy being surrounded by stories of positivity and success - including the impressive ideas that can emerge from times of stress and struggle in business.

If that sounds like you, then I think you'll like it around here: Welcome to the Think Big Act Small podcast!

Love your work,
Tristan

March 02, 2022 23:17 - 12 minutes - 11.6 MB

099: The Power of the CFD - Crappy First Draft

September 09, 2021 01:59 - 20 minutes - 18.9 MB

It certainly helped me finally get this 99th episode happening (and I'll expand on my recent challenges in today's episode). Episode 99 includes aud...

July 01, 2021 07:57 - 36 minutes - 33.8 MB

June 17, 2021 06:59 - 6 minutes - 6.05 MB

In this short solo episode, we explore the link between purpose, people and profit. In my experience, people come to the idea of building a business with one of two competing perspectives. The first is that the sole reason a business exists is to make a profit. The second is that businesses should only exist to serve their team and/or their clients. This episode explores the middle ground that I always try to focus on to balance this conflict: purpose. As always, I'd love to hear your ...
