Episode 14: Racing in the Rain
Racing in the Rain — How to Lead Through Unpredictable Conditions in Business
Ever feel like your business is running full speed… in the middle of a downpour? Welcome to Racing in the Rain - our latest episode of Full Throttle Finance™, where we unpack how high-pressure racing moments mirror the real-world decisions entrepreneurs and business owners face daily.
When race teams face unpredictable weather - on again, off again rain that disrupts strategy and challenges everyone’s nerves - they don’t just rely on instinct. They lean into preparation, adaptability, and team communication. That same mindset is critical for leaders navigating financial uncertainty, whether it’s shifting markets, inflation, unexpected expenses, or regulatory changes.
In this episode, Felicia and Allison draw direct parallels between racing strategy and business strategy under pressure. We’re talking:
How clouded judgment and emotional decision-making can derail progress
Why preparation and forecasting are your best defense against reactive chaos
What it means to lead with boldness and clarity when your team is looking to you for direction
The value of building financial flexibility and contingency plans that actually work
If you're running a race program, managing a growing team, or building a brand that depends on precise execution, this episode will resonate deeply.
These are the moments when leaders either stall… or shift up and accelerate.
You’ll also hear how:
Having a trusted “pit crew” of financial experts can keep your plan on track
Developing a strong mindset around cash flow, reserve planning, and scenario modeling builds confidence
Tracking data points (not emotions) helps you make smarter decisions when the pressure is on
Full Throttle Finance™ is here to support motorsports entrepreneurs, race teams, and small business owners with actionable financial strategies - even when the forecast is unclear.
