The Number

Let’s talk about expectations, age, hustle, grind, and what are the numbers that we really need to know. 

I want to talk a bit about the fact I went to see Sting in concert, he was so full of life and vibrant, he delivered an amazing performance. He was a master, and he held the audience in the palm of his hands. And yet, he was so chill, he was just so zen-like he was living his best life. 

Now, if we were to dig into the numbers around Sting we will find the following, 

He is 70 years old.He has a net worth of $550 million. He has sold over 100 million records during his time as a solo artist. He has six kids, numerous graduate kids, two wives a whole bunch of properties. 

So why is he still performing?

What is The Number?

The Number is a business podcast about the numbers that actually run your business.

Each episode focuses on one number. Revenue, profit, cash flow, capacity, time, valuation, customer cost, risk, or exit readiness.

Hosted by Wendy Brookhouse, and often joined by Kelsey MacAulay, the show breaks down what that number means, why it matters, and how it should influence the decisions you make as an owner.

Some episodes feature guests. Some are honest conversations. Some are solo deep dives.

If you own a business and want better clarity, better decisions, and better outcomes, it starts with knowing your numbers.
