The Digital Diaries Hosted by Peter Woods

What does real, sustainable growth look like — beyond tactics and noise?
In this episode of The Digital Diaries, Peter Woods sits down with Neil Ateem, founder of Multiplier Agency, to unpack what actually drives scale in subscription businesses.
Neil has helped generate over $300M in revenue across SaaS, fintech, online education, and digital products. He previously led subscription growth at Mindvalley, building their membership model from zero to $20M annually — and he did it by focusing on clarity, customer feedback, and doubling down on what works.
This isn’t a conversation about hacks.
It’s about:
The sacrifice behind early-stage entrepreneurship

Why most founders spread themselves too thin

How to balance acquisition and retention in subscription models

Why brand credibility compounds over time

The real role of AI — and why the human element still wins

Neil also shares the behind-the-scenes reality of building during scale: broken systems, customer complaints, iteration cycles, and the discipline required to stay focused on one lever at a time.
If you’re building a product, scaling a subscription, or trying to cut through digital overwhelm — this episode will sharpen your thinking.

What if the reason growth feels hard isn’t because you’re missing a tactic — but because the structure you’re operating inside is broken?
In this episode of The Digital Diaries, Peter Woods sits down with Justin Michael, executive coach and bestselling author of The Frame, to unpack why most revenue and performance problems aren’t tactical at all — they’re structural.
Justin challenges the hustle-heavy narratives most professionals inherit and introduces the idea of frame: the invisible structure that determines how pressure, authority, and decision-making show up in both business and life. From high-stakes sales conversations to personal relationships, the frame you hold often decides the outcome before words are ever spoken.
Drawing from decades inside enterprise sales and coaching operators carrying real accountability, Justin explains why durability matters more than speed, why authority compounds when it’s earned correctly, and how executive presence is built — not performed.
This conversation is for anyone who feels like they’re doing the work, showing up consistently, but still pushing uphill. It’s not about motivation. It’s about responsibility, clarity, and building a frame that can actually hold under pressure.
