Restaurant Owner and Coach Share Secrets of Success

What happens when the coach becomes the one in the hot seat? In this episode of “The Restaurant Prosperity Formula,” we shake things up with a special “Flip the Table” segment. This time, the questions come from restaurant owner Jeff Fitter, a straight-shooting operator with a knack for digging deep and cutting through the fluff. If you’ve ever wondered how coaching works behind the scenes, how to become a stronger leader, or how to truly build a business that serves your life — not the other way around — this is the episode for you.

Why this episode is worth your time

Listeners will walk away with far more than just anecdotes and laughs. This episode delivers real, experience-driven insight into what it actually takes to build a successful, sustainable restaurant business—and a life you’re not constantly running away from.

Here’s what you can expect to learn:

• How great coaching adapts to the individual: Discover why it’s not about one-size-fits-all advice but about reading the person, their energy and their needs — and how that principle applies to leading your own team.
• The mindset that separates owners who thrive from those who survive: Learn the critical difference between fixed and growth mindsets, and why your perspective — not your problems — is the biggest lever you can pull.
• What it means to lead instead of do: Find out why stepping back from the day-to-day and empowering your team is the path to true freedom, and how to recognize when you're doing too much.
• How to sustain motivation in a tough business: Get tools for staying mentally strong, emotionally resilient, and consistently focused, even when the grind wears you down.
• Why your support system makes or breaks your success: Hear how the right team, mentor or community can not only accelerate your progress but also keep you accountable when it matters most.

This is a restaurant podcast episode with a behind-the-scenes look at how transformational coaching really works, and why the Restaurant Prosperity Formula isn’t just a system, it’s a way of living and leading with purpose.
