In this episode of Business Brain, we dig into what happens when a holiday throws off your rhythm. Dave detached over Memorial Day weekend and paid for it on Tuesday, proof that a long weekend needs the same planning as a road trip if you want to land softly back at your desk. We get into the language we use to talk to ourselves, why a “to-did” list might be the best sleep aid going, and how offloading reminders frees up the brain cycles you’re burning trying to remember everything. Find the system that fits how your mind actually works, and you’ll sleep better knowing you checked the boxes that matter. Then we break down SB Mowing — the landscaper who turned free lawn cleanups into a $2.4 million business run out of a pickup truck and trailer. Spencer films time-lapse videos of his worst overgrown yards, posts them on YouTube, and pulls 55 million followers and 3 billion annual views, no longer charging for the work because the content is worth a hundred times more. The lesson for living the Charmed Life: every business is in the social media business. Find the repetitive grunt work you already do, point a camera at it, and let the time-lapse do the marketing — whether you’re mowing lawns, running robot mowers, or tearing down a drum kit after a gig. 00:00:00 Business Brain – The Entrepreneurs’ Podcast #756 for Wednesday, May 27, 2026 May 27th: National Sunscreen Day 00:01:37 The cost of a day off.
