If you’ve been following this 3-part arc with Yara, you know we’ve been hammering home the same critical idea from every angle: Ops and Marketing must align, or you bleed money.

In today’s final conversation, we dive into the cultural and leadership side of the problem— including some painful lessons around toxic teams and the communication breakdowns that plague scaling businesses.

This is the final episode in our deep dive with Yara Golden on the great divide between Marketing and Ops. You’ve heard the strategy. You’ve heard the process. Today, we tackle the cultural minefields, personality clashes, and the one hire Emma regrets the most. If you’ve ever kept someone too long or felt your team was more of a sorority house than a business, this is the episode for you.

Plus, if you missed the last two episodes with Yara, then this third episode of the three-part series is the perfect catch-up. If you’d love to have her back in future episodes, let us know in the comments below!

Finally, remember to stick around at the very end so you can download the featured Marketing and Ops alignment Blueprint inside the Visionary Vault.
