Frameworks as a System: Scale Your Ideas Without Reinventing the Wheel

If you've been sharing the same ideas for years but still feel like you're reinventing the wheel every time you explain them, this episode is for you. Susan sits down with Melanie Deziel, creator of the IRON Framework, to explore how to transform raw, unstructured ideas into scalable, repeatable frameworks. Go behind the scenes of the Calmer Framework’s evolution, explore why naming comes last, and show how frameworks can become the backbone of your services, content, and operations. Whether you’re trying to clarify your IP or reduce your mental load, this episode will help you treat your ideas like infrastructure.

What You’ll Learn:

• Why lack of structure - not lack of clarity - is holding your IP back
• The four components of Mel’s IRON Framework for turning ideas into frameworks
• How systematizing your thinking creates business leverage and margin
• The difference between creativity and reinvention
• Why framework development is more collaborative than you think
