Enterprise Nation: The 99% Club – The Small Business Podcast
Big corporations have no problem getting air time. But what about the other 99% of all businesses?
Hosted by Enterprise Nation CEO Aaron Asadi, The 99% Club is about what it really means to run a small business – from the brilliance to the boring, the magic to the mundane.
Each episode features raw, honest, human conversations with founders from across the small business world. No jargon. No buzzwords. Just real people talking about the things that matter:
– Why they started
– What keeps them going
– What’s falling apart
– What they wish someone had told them earlier
From publishing houses built on philosophy degrees to business plans sketched out between burnout cycles, this show is a home for truth-telling, not hustle culture.
Whether you’re a startup dreamer, side hustler, or seasoned business owner wondering if it’s just you (it’s not) – you’re in the 99% Club. You belong here.

Episode 5: Focusivity – Finding Stable Ground with Valerie Lothian
How do you keep steady when the professional and the personal collide?
In this episode of The 99% Club – The Small Business Podcast, Enterprise Nation’s Aaron Asadi sits down with Valerie Lothian, founder of Focusivity, a business dedicated to helping people and organisations bring clarity, calm and focus back into their working lives.
Valerie shares her deeply human approach to navigating business and life:
•Why coming together matters in a world that often pulls us apart
•How to find stable ground in uncertain times
•The “merging of the two” – when personal emotions meet professional pressures, and how to balance them
•Her journey to founding Focusivity and the lessons she brings from coaching and lived experience
This is a conversation about self-awareness, resilience, and the truth that business isn’t just numbers and plans – it’s people, with all the emotions and challenges that come with them.
