Niels Kaastrup-Larsen and Nick Baltas explore how artificial intelligence, thematic investing and narrative momentum are beginning to reshape systematic investing. Alongside a review of recent CTA performance, they discuss new research on expanding trend following universes, defensive portfolio construction and portable alpha before taking a deep dive into the growing role of AI and thematic risk models. The conversation examines whether future investment signals may come from more than price alone and how systematic investors can combine traditional trend following with new sources of information without losing the discipline that has defined the strategy for decades.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Nick on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps:00:00 - AI, memories and the changing pace of innovation06:32 - How investment firms are integrating artificial intelligence13:01 - CTA performance and the trend following environment20:34 - Expanding the market universe for trend followers28:17 - Building the perfect hedge with trend following34:25 - Portable alpha and leveraging trend strategies37:44 - Introducing thematic investing and missing factors44:59 - How narratives create momentum in financial markets50:43 - Measuring thematic strength versus price momentum58:41 - Can thematic investing be backtested?01:04:14 - Are narratives really different from traditional sectors?01:07:06 - Final thoughts on AI, research and the future of systematic investingCopyright © 2025 – CMC AG – All Rights Reserved----PLUS: Whenever you're ready... here are 3 ways I can help you in your investment Journey:1. eBooks that cover key topics that you need to know about In my eBooks, I put together some key discoveries and things I have learnt during the more than 3 decades I have worked in the Trend Following industry, which I hope you will find useful.

Don explains why duration, yield stability, and personal comfort make the answer more nuanced than one ticker.The Friday questions keep coming: pairing AVGE with VT, moving $5 million from real estate into a retirement portfolio, understanding an emerging-markets fund that became legally non-diversified, and building 529s for grandchildren.The final stretch is all planning: Roth conversions and IRMAA, choosing a HELOC over a 401(k) loan, and resisting the urge to let the tax tail wag the retirement dog.00:00 A full inbox of financial questions02:30 BND versus short bonds, CDs, and Treasury ladders06:45 AVGE plus VT—or unnecessary overlap?10:23 Moving $5 million from real estate into markets14:51 When an index fund becomes legally non-diversified18:18 Building 529s and Roth head starts for grandchildren22:16 Roth conversions, RMDs, and IRMAA25:23 HELOC or 401(k) loan for renovations?28:01 The tax tail and a long Roth-conversion planQuestions?

When a leader says, “Our marketing isn't working,” most people immediately start changing tactics. Dave Mastovich believes the real problem usually begins much earlier: the company has never clearly defined what “working” actually means. How do you cut through ambiguity, align your leadership team, and build marketing that drives authentic, measurable growth? Dave believes the answer starts with clarity around your story, your target audience, and the reasons your customers choose you. In this episode of Insight Out, I sit down with Dave Mastovich, founder of MASSolutions and author of No Bullshit Marketing. Dave has helped organizations ranging from $3 million businesses to $13 billion companies strengthen their marketing, leadership, and growth strategies. His experience includes helping UPMC grow from under $1 billion to $10 billion in just three years. Throughout our conversation, Dave explains why leadership teams often give completely different answers when asked what makes their company unique, and how that lack of alignment creates confusion throughout the organization. He breaks down the difference between your company's “why” and your customer's “why,” showing why both are essential to building a message that truly resonates. Dave also reveals the six right-fit target markets most businesses overlook, why referral marketing should be treated as a repeatable system rather than a passive source of leads, and how asking referral partners one simple question can expose whether they truly understand your business. We explore why ambiguity quietly breeds mediocrity, how companies can equip referral sources with better stories, and why marketing and sales should be treated as distinct disciplines. Dave also shares a practical framework leaders can begin using immediately to simplify their messaging, improve their marketing effectiveness, and build more authentic growth. Join us as we explore how clarity, simplicity, and a no-bullshit approach can transform your marketing, your leadership, and your company culture. In this episode, we discuss: [00:00] Dynamic intro[02:23] What Dave looks for when marketing isn't working[03:56] Why leaders can't articulate their unique advantage[06:53] The six right-fit target markets almost every company neglects[09:08] Qualitative research, quantitative data, and the 80/20 rule[11:05] Where ambiguity quietly destroys growth inside a company[13:05] Why referral marketing is rarely treated as a real system[15:07] Building a referral system[19:00] Equipping referral sources with a ready inventory of stories[19:51] Real-world examples of what works[20:25] The question that exposes weak referral relationships: “How do you describe us?”[22:13] Dave's story: the referral that went sideways and the follow-up call that saved it[27:38] The two whys: your reason for being vs. your customer's reason for buying[30:46] The core principles behind No Bullshit Marketing[33:09] Why marketing and sales are different disciplines, not one job[37:30] The top three ways to make your marketing more effective[40:50] The three types of feedback every leader eventually hears[43:00] How to tell when your story already exists but hasn't been told yet[45:09] How organizational structure affects marketing success[50:25] The undue power of the salesperson[47:54] Where to find Dave and work with him Notable Quotes [02:52] “Until they can nail down what they define as marketing is working, we really can't tell them whether it is or it isn't.” – Dave Mastovich [04:15] “The way we prove that they don't have that answer is we ask it individually of the leadership team... rarely are they identical.” – Dave Mastovich [05:40] “Meaning doesn't come from what we as leaders intend. It comes from what our audiences interpret.” – Dave Mastovich [11:02] “Ambiguity breeds mediocrity most often in our personal communication with each other in an organization.” – Dave Mastovich [17:39] “Perfect is the enemy of good... just start putting stuff on the board, start writing stuff out, start analyzing data.” – Dave Mastovich [20:25] “You have to ask the question: ‘How do you describe us?' And the first thing that's gonna happen is a long, lengthy pause.” – Dave Mastovich [35:15] “Marketing and culture are the two effectiveness functions in an organization, which is why they're typically the two most frustrating functions.” – Dave Mastovich [38:04] “Less is more and simple is better with your story... be able to say that in a short amount of words.” – Dave Mastovich [50:42] “Hardly any business goes with them... we're all afraid of it, but the reality is not nearly as much goes with the salesperson.” – Dave Mastovich Resources and Links Dave Mastovich Website: https://massolutions.biz/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidmmastovichPodcast: NO BULL$H!# MarketingBook: No Bullsh!t Marketing Billy Samoa Saleebey LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/billysamoa/Email: billy@podify.com and saleebey@gmail.com Insight Out Website: https://www.insightoutshow.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

In this solo episode, Travis Chappell explores one of the most common themes to emerge from nearly 2,000 podcast episodes: identity. Drawing on conversations with entrepreneurs, athletes, and high performers—including Bonnie Schutz, John Salley, Brendan Schaub, and Tanner Chidester—Travis explains why the people who successfully reinvent themselves don't define themselves by a single job title. Instead, they build an identity rooted in their values, allowing them to embrace change, pursue purpose, and confidently step into new opportunities. On this episode we talk about: Why tying your identity to your career can keep you stuck Lessons from entrepreneurs and athletes who successfully reinvented themselves How purpose-driven career changes lead to greater fulfillment and well-being Why being good at something doesn't mean you have to do it forever Practical ways to separate who you are from what you do Top 3 Takeaways Your career is something you do—not who you are. Building your identity around your values instead of your job title makes it easier to adapt and grow. Reinvention requires letting go of certainty. The most fulfilling opportunities often come after you're willing to leave a familiar identity behind. Long-term fulfillment comes from pursuing meaningful work, not simply achieving external goals or financial milestones. Notable Quotes "This is what I want to do. This is not who I am, but who I am makes me better at what I do." "Just because you're good at something doesn't mean you have to do it." "Don't let your current sense of identity become the anchor that keeps you in a life that no longer serves you."

In this episode of Agents of Recovery, Coach Blu and Coach Wendell explore the difference between stopping an addictive behavior and beginning the deeper work of healing. Recovery may start with abstinence, honesty, accountability, and daily choices but healing asks a fuller question: What pain, unmet need, fear, or protective pattern made escape feel necessary in the first place?Together, they unpack how addiction can become a survival strategy for people who learned early to suppress emotions, perform for approval, stay hyper-independent, or believe their needs were a burden. The conversation examines the “inner child” not as a cliché, but as the younger part of us that still carries unmet needs for safety, belonging, protection, comfort, play, and being seen. When those needs remain unnamed, they can quietly drive adult patterns of secrecy, compulsive behavior, disconnection, anger, shame, and the belief that relief must be earned or escaped into.Coach Blu and Coach Wendell discuss the shift from fighting yourself to becoming curious about yourself. Instead of asking, “What is wrong with me?” listeners are invited to ask, “What has this behavior been trying to do for me?” That question does not excuse harm or remove responsibility. It creates a more honest path toward accountability one that addresses both the choices a person must own and the wounds that deserve care.The episode also highlights why recovery cannot be sustained in isolation. Addiction grows in secrecy; healing requires safe connection. Through community, mentorship, honest conversations, practical accountability, and the willingness to let others witness the real story, people can begin replacing shame-based survival with belonging and self-trust. Listeners will hear why asking for help is not weakness, why vulnerability needs wise boundaries, and why repeated small actions often create more change than a single emotional breakthrough.This conversation is for anyone who has achieved progress in recovery but still feels disconnected from themselves, trapped in old emotional reactions, or unsure how to build a life that feels meaningful beyond simply “not using.” It offers a compassionate and practical invitation to move beyond the finish line of abstinence and into the ongoing work of becoming whole.Chapters00:00 Introduction and episode overview01:07 Meet the hosts and setting the scene02:16 Understanding recovery versus healing03:08 Why stopping behaviors isn't enough04:09 The importance of addressing root causes05:32 Leaning into curiosity about inner needs06:39 The roots of addiction and emotional pain08:04 Healing as a process of strength and growth10:41 Going deeper: understanding the inner child12:18 The significance of childhood experiences14:44 Permission to need and emotional validation17:11 Connecting with the inner child at different ages19:34 The importance of community and support22:03 The role of vulnerability and safe spaces25:32 The power of curiosity over judgment30:45 Loneliness as a trigger for relapse33:39 Breaking the cycle of shame and isolation36:21 Celebrating progress and self-awareness39:00 The journey of self-discovery and authenticity43:36 The importance of parts work and self-acceptance48:02 Building resilience through community and self-compassion52:29 Creating your unique recovery path53:38 Closing thoughts and encouragement for listenersJoin Coach Blu and Team Addict II Athlete and begin your recovery with a tram behind you! https://www.skool.com/addict-ii-athlete-5988/about?ref=9090e81114674311874340c02b1095d0

In this week's episode of the podcast, the conversation focused on the critical role of home environment and systems in supporting executive function—especially for neurodivergent families. It's not about Pinterest-perfect organization, but about designing spaces and routines that work with your brain, not against it. Key Takeaways Design Over Discipline: Many executive function challenges are solved through smart environment design, not just motivation or checklists. Moving decisions from the brain into the environment can reduce overwhelm and increase independence. Zones Make Life Easier: Creating dedicated zones—like reading nooks, creative spaces, launch zones near exits, and recharge corners—helps reduce cognitive load and makes daily transitions smoother. Visible, Forgiving Systems Win: The discussion explored the power of visual cues (checklists, labels, color coding) over constant verbal reminders. Systems should be simple, obvious, and evolve as your family's needs change.

In this episode, Dr. Karen Litzy talks with Dr. Karen DeSimone, physical therapist and owner of KD360 Wellness and Physical Therapy, about building a hybrid practice that combines insurance-based care with cash-based wellness services. Karen shares how she shifted from treating visits to delivering outcomes, why that change helped her reduce burnout, and how other clinic owners can apply a similar model without adding staff, locations, or more marketing spend. Why it works: outcome-focused messaging makes the value feel concrete and emotionally compelling, which helps listeners see the episode as a practical solution to a problem they already feel. Key topics covered: ·       Why declining reimbursements pushed Karen to rethink her business model ·       The difference between treating visits and treating outcomes ·       How to introduce cash-based services without abandoning insurance ·       Why fewer patients and fewer visits can lead to better results ·       How to have confident, patient-centered conversations about pricing ·       Why the model works for solopreneurs and small clinics ·       The mindset shift needed to step off the insurance treadmill Timestamps: ·       0:01 — Welcome to the Healthy, Wealthy, and Smart Podcast and the episode's focus on healthcare and business ·       0:29 — Karen DeSimone's background and the shift toward an outcome-based model ·       1:53 — What drove Karen to build a new model ·       2:54 — Why she stacked cash-based services on top of physical therapy ·       4:58 — How to talk to patients about cash-based care ·       6:43 — How those conversations happen in practice ·       8:09 — Why this model can work for other areas like knee pain and surgery avoidance ·       9:29 — What is included in the cash-based offering ·       11:25 — Bundling services into one package instead of adding visits ·       12:32 — Building profitable programs from existing patients ·       13:25 — Why this approach can work without more marketing ·       14:56 — Why she did not want a larger business or more locations ·       16:40 — Why clinicians should think beyond growth for growth's sake ·       18:39 — The difference between selling and serving ·       19:46 — Why it should never feel like a hard sell ·       20:27 — Building conviction and confidence through repeatable outcomes ·       21:46 — Practicing how to talk about pricing ·       23:03 — How to keep patients moving forward in a 12-week program ·       24:30 — Long-term results and patient return visits ·       25:03 — Deciding who the model is right for ·       26:42 — Why timing matters in the clinical conversation ·       28:49 — The first shift: decide ·       31:49 — Who can implement this model ·       33:51 — Lightning round: money beliefs, metrics, and burnout advice ·       36:47 — What Karen is doing to stay healthy, wealthy, and smart ·       37:30 — Where to find Karen and learn more ·       38:24 — Free starter framework for clinicians ·       39:12 — Final encouragement to share the episode Notable takeaways: ·       "We're not treating visits, we're delivering outcomes." ·       Cash-based services can be stacked on top of physical therapy to improve results and revenue. ·       Patients often pay for faster outcomes when the value is clearly explained. ·       The first step is a decision: choose the model you want, then commit to it. ·       Confidence comes from repeatable results, not from perfect wording. Resources & Links: ·      Clinical Architecture Website ·      KD 360 PT and Wellness ·      Instagram ·      LinkedIn ·      Free Gift: The Freedom From Back Pain Starter Framework, More About Karen: Karen DeSimone, PT, DPT, has practiced physical therapy for 26 years. She earned her Doctor of Physical Therapy from the MGH Institute of Health Professions, began her career at Massachusetts General Hospital, and in 2009 opened KD360 Wellness & Physical Therapy in South Yarmouth, Massachusetts, where she still practices today. A solo clinician running a hybrid cash and insurance model, she helps clients avoid surgery and heal faster using a structured, outcome-driven program. After years inside the insurance-based model, Karen reached a hard conclusion: you can't build a successful system on a broken model. So she built her own: a defined clinical pathway with enrolled patients and predictable outcomes. That pathway became the Freedom From Back Pain Clinical Success System, the online implementation program she now teaches through her company, Clinical Architecture, helping other PT clinic owners deliver the same cash-based care inside their own practices, without adding new patients, staff, or marketing. Her work centers on one principle: we're not treating visits, we're delivering outcomes.

AI can crunch a portfolio, harvest losses, and explain an investment concept in seconds. But can it stop a nervous investor from selling at exactly the wrong moment—or understand the life behind the spreadsheet?Tom and Don test the robot-advisor promise, even asking ChatGPT to weigh in. The verdict is a useful division of labor: let technology handle repeatable mechanics, while human judgment, fiduciary responsibility, and behavior coaching remain hard to automate.Then the questions get wonderfully strange: whether a 0.70% advisory fee earns its keep, how a concentrated tech fund hides risk behind a huge return, whether a $100 million Bitcoin Roth story adds up, and how to invest an inherited account.00:00 Are AI advisors coming for financial planners?03:06 ChatGPT offers its own cautious verdict04:14 Where automation helps—and where humans matter09:36 What investors should ask their advisory firms12:10 Is a 0.70% advisor fee earning its keep?16:50 The concentrated tech fund with a dazzling record21:12 A purported $100 million Bitcoin Roth25:22 Building an inherited-account portfolioQuestions?

Loneliness isn't just an emotional challenge—it may be one of the biggest hidden threats to your health, happiness, and long-term success. In this solo episode, Travis Chappell unpacks one of the most recurring themes from past podcast conversations, drawing heavily on insights from relationship expert Dr. John Delony. Backed by research, personal experience, and public health data, Travis explores the difference between loneliness and social isolation, why success doesn't guarantee meaningful relationships, and the practical steps you can take to build deeper connections. On this episode we talk about: The critical difference between loneliness and social isolation—and why both matter Why networking and professional success can't replace genuine friendships The surprising research linking loneliness to higher mortality and poor physical health How social media can create the illusion of connection while increasing isolation Practical strategies for building stronger relationships with yourself and others Top 3 Takeaways Loneliness is a serious health risk that deserves the same urgency as other major wellness issues—it impacts both mental and physical health. Building a healthier relationship with yourself is often the first step toward overcoming chronic feelings of loneliness. Strong friendships outside of work and family aren't optional—they're essential for living a healthier, more fulfilling life. Notable Quotes "We're dying of loneliness." "Not having friends is worse than having a drug problem. You have to treat it with that level of seriousness." "Social media is TV dinners—it'll keep you alive until it kills you."

Building on an engaging essay by Benjamin Franklin, we're talking today about the items and decisions in our lives that end up costing way too much. Sometimes it's a monetary cost, sometimes it's our time or energy, and sometimes it's our relationships and things that matter most. This simple question (Am I paying too much for this whistle?) has helped to guide our personal decision making, and we hope you'll enjoy this conversation--and then share your own thoughts in the Comments section of our Show Notes page or inside our LearnDoBecome Community Facebook group!

SUMMARY   The current chapter of dad life is not the whole story. In part two of the DadAwesome Multipliers summer series, Jeff reads Chapter 2 of the DadAwesome book, The Tale of Two Thieves, and unpacks what a three dozen cookie dough heist taught him about choosing curiosity instead of reactivity. Then Phil Comer joins with a powerful clip on giving a blessing instead of returning evil for evil, and how one choice in a tense room trickles down for generations. This episode closes with clear reflection, multiplication, and activation steps you can take this week.   Key Takeaways You are living into a multigenerational story, and this chapter is only a tiny slice of it. Curiosity opens doors. Reactivity closes them. You cannot eliminate chaos, but you can shape how it unfolds. Stones of remembrance are about keeping the stories alive, not preserving the reminders. Giving a blessing when you have received a criticism changes the atmosphere of a room. Action Steps REFLECTION Look back at the chaos. When curveballs hit recently, were you reacting or responding? Were you making assumptions or staying curious and asking God what He wanted to teach you in that moment? Open your phone and look back at the last month. Scroll your photos, scroll your calendar. Where has God shown up that you have not paused long enough to call to mind? Ask the honest question. If your kids described the atmosphere you carry into the room right now, would tenderness make the list? Would softness? Would kindness? MULTIPLICATION Send the text. Reach out to seven or eight dads and invite them to journey with you through the end of August. If two or three say yes, you have moved from addition to multiplication. Pick your gathering. A text thread, a campfire, a boat, a camping trip with your kids. Make one specific invite this week. Carry a copy. Keep an extra DadAwesome book in your vehicle or your laptop bag and look for the moment to hand it to a dad and tell him you see him being awesome. ACTIVATION Start a family remembrance list. Sit down together, scroll photos and your calendar, and capture the answered prayers, the provision, the goodness, the moments God showed up. Let every kid contribute. Tell the stories out loud. At the dinner table or at bedtime, tell your kids one story of God's faithfulness in your family. Flip the switch this week. The next time a curveball comes, choose curiosity first. Laugh at the moment. Show your kids that dad is anchored and steady, not thrown off.   Timestamps 03:00 This week's theme is story 04:00 Chapter 2, The Tale of Two Thieves 06:24 React or respond, curiosity or reactivity 08:49 The Dad Detective's approach, five practices 11:11 Crafting your family's story 12:45 Stones of remembrance 14:30 Building your family's remembrance list 18:21 Remember this 19:20 Setting up the Phil Comer clip 20:20 Phil Comer on tenderness, blessing, and the choices we pass down 26:45 Action steps: reflection, multiplication, activation Guest Phil Comer is a husband, father, and grandfather with 40 years of pastoral and counseling experience.

"You can't eliminate chaos, but you can shape how it unfolds." "Your kids are watching how you handle the unexpected. What story are you writing?" "It's not about preserving the physical reminders. It's about keeping the stories alive." Phil Comer: "If you, with God's help, can give a blessing when you've received a criticism or a curse, it brings peace and it honors God."

You don't have to buy your first rental property—you can build one instead. Newer systems, fewer repairs, and that “brand new” feeling that tenants may pay more rent for. But…is it worth it? Building a small multifamily in a single-family area could let you house hack and own a rare property in your market, but is the headache worth the effort? With more and more investors choosing to build rather than buy, we thought we'd weigh in. Dave and Henry are back answering your questions from the BiggerPockets Forums. Today, we're talking about building vs. buying rentals, when an investment property is too old to be worth buying, the lender-friendly rehab budget Henry uses to get loans for his BRRRRs (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) and house flips, and whether wholesalers (middlemen) are worth buying properties from. Plus, if you're house hacking, should you tell the tenant you're the owner? Dave tried to hide it before, and shares whether it was worth it.  In This Episode We Cover Building vs. buying rental properties: is the time (and effort) worth the upside?  Renovating an older rental property? This build decade could be best  Henry's exact renovation budget he shares with lenders to get fast financing  Are wholesalers worth their assignment fee? When we will and won't buy from them Should you tell your tenants that you're the owner (what happens if they find out?) And So Much More!

Want to launch a premium, high-margin consumable brand and work with us to bring it to market? Get on the waitlist for our next cohort: ► Capitalism.com Bootcamp: https://capitalism.com/bootcamp I sat down with Djamel, the co-founder of Organifi, who grew a superfoods brand from $1 million to $100 million in about four years. We break down exactly how it happened: a premium, high-margin product, affiliates paid 75% commissions when the rest of the industry paid 5%, customer data poured into Facebook ads, and the team and systems that turned a scrappy launch into a nine-figure business. None of this was an accident. It was manufactured, and you get the whole playbook. (0:00) The $1M to $100M question, with Organifi's co-founder (1:00) Where it started: Drew Canole and the done-for-you green juice (3:00) Going out of business: the data-driven Hail Mary launch (4:00) The decision that set them apart: making it actually taste good (6:00) Sold out in three days, and presales became a crowdsourced capital raise (7:00) Building the whole thing on Infusionsoft, before Shopify existed (8:00) The takeaway so far: build a small audience and aim for a $10K launch (9:00) The first million saves the company, then the audience taps out (11:00) ClickBank comes calling: first supplement, and the launch that blew up (14:00) Influencer marketing before it had a name, and the TikTok Shop parallel (15:00) The 75% commission unlock: pay affiliates like digital, win on the back end (17:00) How aggressive commissions took them to $5 million (18:00) Turning customer data into Facebook ads that scaled them toward $20 million (20:00) Why did everything work? The numbers made sense (22:00) Why margin matters: build a premium brand and race to the top (23:00) The hate for a $70 greens powder, and why premium customers are easier (25:00) Building the movement: community as the premium moat (29:00) From $20 million to $100 million: becoming a real operational business (30:00) Stacking traffic channels, and the podcast-ad advice that opened a new one (33:00) The systems behind the scale: EOS, OKRs, KPIs, and dashboards (34:00) Becoming a leader: from wrecking ball to human (37:00) The two hires that mattered most: his CMO and COO (41:00) Incentive plans: phantom stock valued against the future goal (44:00) Walking away from capital three times, and the "bladder rule of finance" (46:00) The chaos behind the scenes: algorithm swings, lost influencers, tight cash (48:00) Exiting without selling: replacing himself, burnout, and rediscovery (50:00) His $1M-to-$100M playbook: data, team, problem-solving (52:00) The belief you have to manufacture (55:00) Why the entrepreneur bug never leaves DISCLAIMER: The information contained on this podcast and the resources available for download/viewing through this podcast for educational and informational purposes only.

Charlie McGarraugh joins Moritz Seibert to discuss how systematic investing is evolving beyond traditional trend following. Drawing on experience from Goldman Sachs, crypto and machine learning, Charlie explains why adaptive portfolios, capital efficiency and smarter position sizing may become the defining advantages for the next generation of macro investors. They explore the rise of managed futures ETFs, China's growing futures markets, the trade off between diversification and simplicity, and why portfolio construction often matters more than finding the next predictive signal.

How do we align the rapid, exponential rise of artificial intelligence with humanity's best interests before we reach a point of no return? In this classic throwback episode from our old Edge of AI Podcast, we sit down with tech visionary Eric Pulier, a prolific technologist who has founded over 15 companies, raised more than $1 billion, and led exits from IPOs to major mergers.In this deep dive, Eric explores his leadership roles as Co-Chair of the AI Coalition at the Future Investment Initiative (FII) Institute and CEO of Vatom. He outlines the global push for AI ethics, the looming existential threats of synthetic biology and mass deepfakes, and why preserving human culture in local AI models is crucial to preventing algorithmic erasure.Eric also reflects on inventing the "Vatom" (the virtual atom) in early 2015, the precursor to modern smart NFTs, and explains why self-sovereign identity, tokenized real-world assets, and human-first connection will dictate the next generation of the internet.Support us through our Sponsors! ☕ Want to make content like ours?

He doesn't marry the right woman; he marries at the right time. That single idea reframes almost everything about how we think we're supposed to find love. Nelly Sudri is a matchmaker and dating coach who works with high-achieving men and women navigating love, timing, and compatibility in 2026. She joins us for a no-filter conversation about why "wife material" doesn't guarantee a ring, why society's shifting money dynamics are quietly wrecking relationships, and why most people's dating checklists are actually keeping them single.

Henry VII rebuilt England with a ledger instead of a sword.The myth remembers him as a cautious survivor of the Wars of the Roses — a miser, a tax collector, the kind of king who was nervous about the battlefield. But that's the small version of the story. The real machine ran on parchment, bonds, wool customs, royal seals, and the rolls the sheriffs kept.Henry filled his government with "new men" — administrators he picked for their command of the law and for their loyalty. A body called the Council Learned in the Law took ordinary promises and turned them into debts you could actually enforce. Noble privilege started to become a liability. Loyalty turned into a bill with a seal on it.That was the Tudor revolution. It looked less like a new crown and more like a new collection system. The monarchy stopped waiting around for obedience and started pricing it.Everything Henry VIII did — the break with Rome, the dissolution of the monasteries — was only possible because his father had built a state powerful enough to do it. The founder of the durable political order is almost never the charismatic figure history remembers. It's the accountant.═══════════════════════════════

In this discussion, Travis Chappell is joined by producer Eric and guest co-host Brandon Birkmeyer for a candid conversation about the modern creator economy. They explore how viral clips, outrage, and sensationalism have reshaped social media—and why creators need to be intentional about building an audience that aligns with their long-term goals. From the dangers of "clip farming" to creating meaningful content that still captures attention, this episode offers valuable insights for podcasters, entrepreneurs, and content creators alike. On this episode we talk about: How the "clip economy" rewards outrage and extreme emotions The difference between creating engaging content and manufacturing controversy Why your audience today determines the opportunities you'll have tomorrow Balancing viral marketing with authentic, long-form conversations Building a personal brand that lasts instead of chasing short-term attention Top 3 Takeaways Don't optimize for views alone—optimize for the audience you actually want to attract over the long term. Great clips should spark curiosity and drive people to the full conversation, not distort or sensationalize it. The content you create today becomes your brand tomorrow, so be intentional about what you're known for. Notable Quotes "Not all views are created equal." "You have to get clear about the audience that you want." "If you're going to create long-form content, make stuff that's meaningful to you and figure out the clipping stuff as you go."

What does it really take to break the cycles you were handed and build something better for the next generation? In this episode of Better Call Daddy, host Reena Friedman Watts sits down with Kelby Green, purpose-driven entrepreneur and proud girl dad, for a conversation that moves between boardrooms and bedrooms the business of building a life with intention. Kelby opens up about leaving the corporate world behind, what pushed him toward entrepreneurship, and the hard lessons that came with the leap. Reena and Kelby get into the real work of validating ideas before falling in love with them, why investing in yourself is non-negotiable, and how to network in a way that actually feels human.

Kelby reflects on how raising daughters shapes the way he thinks about business, legacy, and what it means to give kids room to figure out who they are.

This is the most personal episode we've ever recorded.  After days of labor, countless prayers, unexpected setbacks, and one of the hardest decisions we've ever had to make, we finally met our son. What we thought would be one of the most carefully planned moments of our lives became a journey of surrender, reminding us that God is often doing His greatest work in the moments we never saw coming. For the first time, we're sharing the complete story behind Reign's arrival. From the emotional highs and unexpected twists to the miracle of finally hearing his first cry. We also open up about why we've chosen to keep his face off social media, how becoming parents has reshaped our perspective on faith, purpose, and legacy, and what we're believing God for as we step into this brand-new season together.  This is more than a birth story. It's a conversation about trusting God when nothing goes according to plan, finding peace in the unexpected, and discovering that His greatest miracles are often waiting on the other side of surrender. Whether you're preparing for parenthood, walking through a season of uncertainty, or simply believing God for what's next, this episode is a reminder that His plans are always greater than our own. What You'll Learn: The hardest decision we face during labor, and how we found peace in it What becoming Mom and Dad revealed about trusting God's timing Why surrender is often the beginning of God's greatest work Why we've chosen to keep Reign's face off social media How becoming parents is reshaping our faith, marriage, and calling Timestamps: (02:15) - Our Pregnancy Story (04:39) - When Labor Didn't Go According to Plan (11:29) - The Unexpected Setbacks That Tested Our Faith (13:47) - The Spiritual Preparation Before Giving Birth (24:59) - The Hardest Decision We Made Before Meeting Reign (32:35) - The Moment We Heard His First Cry (34:05) - What Nobody Tells You About the First Hours of Parenthood (40:09) - The God-Given Meaning Behind Reign's Name (43:02) - Designing a Life That Holds Both Motherhood and Purpose (44:43) - Why We're Choosing to Keep Reign's Face Off Social Media (47:24) - The Hidden Danger Parents Need to Think About in the Age of AI (50:00) - Why Prayer Should Be Your First Response, Not Your Last Resort (57:20) - Building a Brand That Creates Freedom, Impact & Legacy Connect with Jake: Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/jakehavron     YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxG3bKqLK_M_HZpOgiVrtng  More from Emily & FORDIVINE: Website |  https://meetemilyford.com   Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/itsemily         Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/itsemilymethod    YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/c/ITSEMILYFORD  Called & Crowned Podcast | https://www.instagram.com/calledandcrowned/  FORDIVINE | https://www.fordivine.com/discover

#356: Wilglory Tanjong doesn't wait for luck to show up. She builds it, asks for it, and stays ready to receive it. The founder of handbag brand Anima Iris is sitting down for a conversation that moves from grief to grit to greatness, and somehow makes all three feel like the same story.Wilglory opens up about leaving a six-figure corporate job at the start of the pandemic, why she calls business school "MBA school," and the importance of f*ck-up capital for women founders. And yes, she talks about the ongoing series where she's asking MacKenzie Scott for a billion dollars for Black women entrepreneurs, one video at a time.This episode is a masterclass in what it actually looks like to alchemize your own luck.

I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Attorney Tessie D. Edwards, Founder of a multi-million-dollar family law firm in Atlanta, Georgia Purpose of the Interview The interview highlights Tessie Edwards' remarkable journey from teen mother and high school dropout to successful attorney, law firm owner, and community advocate. The conversation serves as a motivational success story focused on perseverance, personal accountability, education, entrepreneurship, and overcoming adversity. The discussion explores: Her childhood dream of becoming an attorney. The challenges of teen motherhood. Her path through higher education and law school. Building a successful law practice. The role of family and support systems. Advice for individuals pursuing ambitious goals. Executive Summary Tessie Edwards knew from the third grade that she wanted to become an attorney because she loved debate, argument, and advocacy. Growing up in a low-income community in Florida, she witnessed many people struggling with the criminal justice system and wanted to become a voice for those who felt unheard. Her journey was anything but traditional. She became pregnant at 15, had her first child at 16, dropped out of high school, earned her GED, attended community college, briefly joined the military, completed her bachelor's degree, and eventually graduated from law school while raising five children. Today, she is the owner of a multi-million-dollar law firm in Atlanta and the mother of seven children. Throughout the interview, Edwards attributes her success to clear goals, relentless determination, family support, and an unwavering commitment to her vision. Key Takeaways 1. Success Starts with a Clear Vision Edwards emphasized that she always knew what she wanted to become and remained focused despite numerous obstacles. Lesson: Clearly defining your goals helps guide decision-making and keeps you moving forward when challenges arise. 2. Your Beginning Does Not Determine Your Ending Despite becoming a teen mother, dropping out of school, and growing up in poverty, she refused to let her circumstances define her future. Lesson: Adversity can become motivation rather than limitation. 3. Parenthood Became Her Greatest Motivation A transformative moment occurred when someone told her that her infant daughter looked just like her. Edwards realized her daughter might want to become like her, which inspired her to create a life worthy of being a role model. Lesson: Responsibility can become a powerful catalyst for personal growth and achievement. 4. Persistence Beats Obstacles Edwards faced countless setbacks but continued pursuing her goals regardless of challenges. Lesson: Success often comes from refusing to quit rather than avoiding adversity. 5. Support Systems Matter She credited much of her success to her husband, children, siblings, and professional team. Lesson: Surrounding yourself with people who believe in your vision can make a significant difference in achieving your goals. 6. Stop Waiting for the Perfect Time When people advised her to delay law school until her children were older, she rejected the idea and chose to move forward immediately. Lesson: There is rarely a perfect time to pursue your dreams. 7. Dreams Require Action Rushion McDonald repeatedly emphasized that Edwards didn't merely dream about success—she consistently took action to achieve it through education, persistence, and hard work. Lesson: Ambition without action accomplishes little; success requires both vision and execution. Notable Quotes On becoming an attorney "Some people learn to litigate. I feel like I was born to litigate." On achieving success "Nothing other than dreaming it, seeing it, and then persistently going after it time and time and time again." On determination "The aggression will never stop. If I want it, I am absolutely going to give it everything in my power to go get it." On what changed her life "If she looked like me, she may want to be like me." On delaying goals "What am I waiting for? The same four years are going to go by whether she's in kindergarten or not." On success "Be clear about what it is you want. Be driven, be focused, be hungry." On support systems "Surround yourself with people that believe in you." On purpose "I feel like my life was so divinely chosen." On her current mindset "I feel thankful but not satisfied." Overall Message Tessie Edwards' interview is ultimately a story about resilience, determination, and possibility. Her journey demonstrates that difficult beginnings do not prevent extraordinary outcomes. Through focus, education, persistence, and the support of loved ones, she transformed her life and built a thriving legal practice. The interview encourages listeners to define their goals, work relentlessly toward them, and never allow current circumstances to dictate their future. #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You think some people are just born without fear, but my guest Koa Smith has spent 15 years paddling into waves big enough to kill him, and he'll tell you the opposite: fear never leaves, the whole game is what you do when it shows up. After a reef injury knocked him unconscious underwater and left him eight months numb, depressed, and unable to get a straight answer from a doctor, he clawed his way back with forest time, breathwork, meditation, clean food, and real sleep instead of a prescription. This isn't really a surfing video, it's about the same fear that keeps you from a hard conversation, a new business, or a decision you've been avoiding, and how getting clear lets you finally see through it.

Lindsay explains why someone can be “too lean” to effectively build muscle even if they're eating at maintenance and maintaining body weight. She argues maintenance calories don't automatically mean an optimal physiological environment for growth because the body also evaluates energy reserves (body fat), recovery, training stress, sleep, and hormone signals like leptin, plus changes in estrogen and thyroid hormones that affect performance and recovery. Topics discussed:(00:00) - Welcome (01:31) - Social Media Body Bias (06:51) - Maintenance vs Reserves (08:08) - Budgeting Analogy Explained (11:58) - Hormones and Leptin (16:36) - Menopause Muscle Reality (18:58) - For Who and What Goal?

Watch the YouTube version of this episode HEREYou don't know where you'll be next Tuesday and that's exactly the point. In this episode of Maximum Lawyer, Tyson Mutrux sits down with trademark attorney and educator Sonia Lakhany, who has turned her entire life into a delegation and systems experiment by putting everything she owns in storage and becoming a “fancy homeless” digital nomad. Sonia shares how she runs two thriving companies while living out of a single bag and cycling through hotels around the world, using extreme efficiency, SOPs, and intentional lifestyle design to strip away errands, household chores, and decision fatigue so she can focus on deep work, creativity, and enjoying the freedom she built.From departure checklists and dopamine menus to virtual mailboxes and hotel‑based “done‑for‑you” living, Sonia walks Tyson through the operational choices that make her nomad life possible and the business lessons law firm owners can steal even if they never leave their hometown. She talks candidly about solo travel, loneliness, and choosing not to have kids, how ADHD and a craving for “whimsy” drove her away from traditional employment, and why she now sees trademarks as the ultimate lifestyle practice area for lawyers who want flexibility, global reach, and lean, high‑margin firms. They also dig into her 4L Education platform and flagship “Two Weeks to Trademarks” course, including why hundreds of alumni keep coming back for live reteaches, how she leverages AI to systematize her own law firm, and what it really looks like to build a business that funds your bucket‑list life instead of competing with it.What You'll LearnHow Sonia designed a “digital nomad” life that eliminates errands, chores, and home maintenance through radical delegationWhy running two companies from hotel rooms forced her to systematize everything from travel checklists to client workHow solo travel, white space, and pattern interrupts supercharge her creativity and strategic thinkingWhy she believes permanency (houses, kids, routines) isn't for everyone and how that shapes her business choicesWhat makes trademark law a lifestyle‑friendly, globally scalable practice area for lawyersHow her 4L Education and “Two Weeks to Trademarks” course help attorneys escape burnout and build flexible practicesWhy alumni keep re‑attending her live reteaches and how AI is changing the way she teaches and practices trademarksHighlights 00:00 – Why Sonia doesn't know where she'll be next Tuesday and her “fancy homeless” origin story05:00 – Delegating life: hotels, virtual mailboxes, and stripping away errands and chores10:00 – Departure checklists, extreme efficiency, and SOPs for travel and business20:00 – Solo travel, loneliness, and designing a life without partners, pets, or kids30:00 – ADHD, whimsy, and why Sonia was never built to be a traditional employee40:00 – Building lean teams, avoiding management bloat, and redefining success beyond headcount50:00 – Inside 4L Education and “Two Weeks to Trademarks,” lifestyle lawyering, and global trademark opportunities55:00 – Live reteaches, CLE, unreasonable hospitality, and using AI to future‑proof your practiceConnect with Sonia:Instagram YouTube Linkedin
