Send us a text What if the best gift you could give this Christmas doesn’t come wrapped in paper or tied with a bow? In this special Christmas episode of Impact Without Limits, Dale and Brian invite you to unplug from the noise, the busyness, and the pressure of the season—and plug back into what truly matters.

Send us a text In this episode of Impact Without Limits, Dale and Brian challenge the familiar phrase “once bitten, twice shy” and replace it with a mindset built for growth: “twice bitten, once shy.” They unpack why failure, betrayal, and disappointment are unavoidable parts of doing anything meaningful—and why fear should never be the reason you stop moving forward. Through honest stories from their entrepreneurial journey, the conversation explores what happens when people retreat after ge...
Send us a text In today’s episode, Dale and Brian dive into a powerful axiom: Back a good with a good. Momentum isn’t accidental—it’s created, reinforced, and intentionally sustained. Whether you’re leading a team, running a business, or pushing toward personal goals, how you respond to success determines whether it becomes a trend…or a one-time spike. They explore why stacking wins matters, how it affects your mindset, and how to avoid the classic “flash in the pan” trap. They also share pra...
Send us a text In this week’s episode, Dale and Brian talk about what really matters when building a great team. It’s easy to focus on résumés and experience, but they remind listeners that the real difference-maker is the person behind the skills. Every new hire will either contribute to the culture or contaminate it — which is why character always comes first. They walk through the Three C’s they use when hiring: Character, the essential starting point; Culture, making sure someone fits the...
Send us a text In this Thanksgiving episode of Impact Without Limits, Dale and Brian reflect on a wide range of topics. Like a plate of scrambled eggs, they may not seem connected, but each one leads back to a simple truth: we are called to “give thanks in all circumstances” (1 Thessalonians 5:16–18). Even when life feels mixed up or uncertain, gratitude remains a choice. The brothers reflect on how thankfulness shapes perspective, strengthens faith, and helps us stay grounded—especially duri...
Send us a text In this episode, Dale and Brian unpack a simple but powerful principle for growth in business and life: “Get good, then get fast.” Many people rush to move fast — chasing results, efficiency, or success — before they’ve mastered the fundamentals. Others get stuck trying to be perfect, moving so slowly they never build momentum. Dale and Brian explain how the real key is in the sequence: build your skill and quality first, then develop speed without sacrificing what makes your w...
Sometimes you have to believe it before you see it. On this episode of Impact Without Limits, Brian and Dale Karmie break down the axiom: “Act As If”. They discuss how moving forward with confidence — even before all the details fall into place — can break through fear, hesitation, and analysis paralysis. Through stories from ForeverLawn’s journey, including NASCAR sponsorships, the launch of K9Grass in Europe, and potential projects with the Cleveland Browns, the brothers reveal how acting i...
Broadcasting from their new studio at the Hall of Fame Village, Dale and Brian share another axiom: Be the Place You'd Want to Be. They discuss how creating a workplace where people genuinely want to show up—not just punch the clock—leads to stronger teams, greater productivity, and deeper fulfillment. They explore how intentional environments—whether in the office or around the dinner table—reflect servant leadership, attract the right people, and ultimately create spaces where others can th...
In this episode of Impact Without Limits, Dale and Brian explore how the stages of business growth parallel the stages of family life. From the excitement of the startup phase in marriage to the exhausting (& rewarding) “Running Man” season of raising young kids, the brothers reflect on how families evolve through building, delegating, and ultimately creating legacy. With humor and heart, they discuss what it means to build a family rooted in shared values—one that grows strong enough to ...
In this week’s episode, Dale and Brian unpack the ForeverLawn axiom Give to Give—a principle rooted in Galatians 6:9 that challenges us to give freely, without expecting anything in return. They share how this mindset has shaped ForeverLawn’s culture, strengthened relationships, and opened unexpected doors of blessing. Through personal stories and real examples, the brothers reveal how giving with pure intentions often leads to a ripple effect of impact far greater than anything you could pla...
In this week’s episode, Dale and Brian dive into one of the ForeverLawn axioms that has shaped their mindset and culture—Get the Blue Vase. Inspired by the classic book The Go-Getter by Peter B. Kyne, this principle is all about grit, persistence, and doing whatever it takes to get the job done. Brian and Dale share stories from their own journey—early projects, the creation of K9Grass, and even a few funny “blue vase” moments from daily life—that illustrate how belief, effort, and determinat...
This week, Dale and Brian settle into their brand-new studio and dive back into their axioms with a topic that’s at the heart of how they lead: Don’t take yourself too seriously. From tripping on sidewalks to laughing at their own on-air blunders, the brothers share stories, laughs, and lessons on the freedom that comes with self-awareness and humility. They explore why being able to laugh at yourself isn’t just healthy—it’s essential for growth, leadership, and building genuine relationships...

They share how “naked truth” moments—like an early ForeverLawn sales call gone wrong—taught them the importance of communicating the whole story. They also reflect on the significance of Deliverance Day, a powerful reminder of God’s provision during their decade-long legal battle, and how moments of gratitude keep their business grounded in faith.
