In this episode of The Abundance Mindset, Vinney Chopra and Gualter Amarelo go deep on two absolutely critical factors for building a highly valuable business: systems and financeability. This is the tactical gold most business owners miss when trying to scale or prepare for an exit.   Vinney, who has scaled over 30 companies and built a $1.6B empire after starting with just $7, shares how building out detailed SOPs (Standard Operating Procedures) not only frees his time but makes his businesses sellable at premium valuations. Gualter, author of Broke To A Quarter-Million, explains why most business owners unknowingly trap themselves by failing to structure their companies in ways that banks—and buyers—can finance.   In this game-changing conversation, you'll learn:

This week on Market Mondays, we're breaking down a pivotal moment in the markets. After Apple, Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft reported earnings, we're asking: are these tech giants still long-term compounders, or are buybacks and creative accounting hiding peak performance? Alphabet's $70 billion stock buyback is under the spotlight, and Tesla's stock jumped on Robotaxi hype — even as its fundamentals weakened. Elon Musk says Tesla doesn't need to buy Uber, but is that a strategic power move or a missed opportunity in autonomous transport? Meanwhile, Huawei's new AI chip spooked Nvidia investors — are cracks forming in the king of semis, or will U.S. geopolitics protect its dominance?Beyond tech, we explore the consumer and macro landscape. Spotify is nearing a breakout — is this real growth or macro-fueled momentum? ARK Innovation is surging again — is Cathie Wood making a comeback or just catching a Nasdaq wave? Domino's missed on same-store sales, DoorDash made a $3.6B bid for Deliveroo, and e.l.f. just bought Hailey Bieber's Rhode brand for $1B. Is global consolidation the next growth phase in food delivery? Are influencer-led beauty brands the future — or a risky bet on hype? And with Monster, Celsius, and Vita Coco battling for beverage dominance, who really has the edge in a slowing economy?We also dive into the economic outlook. U.S. GDP contracted by -0.2%, inflation appears mild but sentiment is at historic lows, and Treasury yields are climbing. Are we heading into recession, stagflation, or just a soft patch? Is now the time to rotate into risk or go defensive? Gold topped $3,400, oil prices dipped despite demand, and Palantir landed a $795M federal AI contract — is this the beginning of a broader AI-government integration wave? Plus, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq surging while the Dow lags behind, we ask: is this the start of a real breakout — or another trap before the next downturn?Link to Invest Fest: https://investfest.com#MarketMondays #Tesla #Alphabet #Nvidia #Spotify #ARKK #EarningsSeason #StockMarket #Investing #Inflation #Recession #Gold #Oil #Palantir #ElonMusk #CathieWood #TechStocks #BigTech #AI #ConsumerSpending #BondsSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Live from Triad's Scale Summit in Atlanta, I got the opportunity to sit down with two Triad members who are driving SHP Financial's incredible growth—founding partner Keith Ellis Jr. and Chief Operating Officer Michelle Short.In this behind-the-scenes conversation, we unpack how SHP went from a 4-person startup to a 55-person firm who gathered $380M of total assets in 2024, growing to $1.6B of AUM. You'll hear how they scaled without burning out, built career tracks that turned interns into $80M producers, and created a culture-backed onboarding system that scales consistency, deepens trust, and reinforces what makes SHP different. 3 of the biggest insights from Keith and Michelle… #1.) How SHP Gathered $380M of Total Assets in 2024SHP didn't grow by grinding, they grew by stepping back. Instead of meeting with every client, SHP's founders focused on high-net-worth clients while their team of specialists handled planning, follow-up, and client management. The result? $380M of total assets without burnout or bottlenecks. #2.) The Onboarding System That Scales Consistency, Trust, and ReferralsEvery SHP hire starts with a Vision Session, a 1:1 with a partner, and a deep dive into the firm's culture handbook. From “Shipmates” to Enneagram walls, everything is built to align the team and protect the client experience. That's how SHP builds internal trust—and earns referrals without ever asking. #3.) SHP's 3-Tier Client Model That Protects Founder TimeBy segmenting clients into three tiers, SHP ensures their founders only meet with $2.5M+ prospects—while newer advisors gain reps with clients under $1M. The result?

In Episode 98 of Taking It Back, Zak Paine, Adel Nero, and Frankie Val come out swinging with hard-hitting commentary on a week of political and cultural shockwaves. Kicking off with the historic appointment of Cardinal Robert Prevost as the first American pope, the hosts debate whether this is a geopolitical milestone or just another establishment move by a left-leaning Vatican. Frank weighs in with the Catholic perspective, warning that the globalist agenda may now have a new pulpit. The bulk of the episode is a deep dive into the Epstein file chaos. The team breaks down conflicting narratives between James Comer, Pam Bondi, and Kash Patel about whether the infamous files still exist, or have been destroyed. They debate whether Bondi's “tens of thousands of videos” comment refers only to Epstein or hints at a massive blackmail network implicating elites around the world. James O'Keefe's undercover revelation about Prince Andrew adds fuel to the fire, but the guys aren't buying the mainstream hype, they want names, arrests, and real accountability. With frustration building online, the hosts sound off on the wave of blackpilled pessimism plaguing the movement, pointing fingers at coordinated demoralization ops designed to erode faith and momentum. They call for discernment, unity, and a long-view approach to justice, while reminding listeners to stay sharp and stay engaged. The episode wraps with coverage of Trump's $6B trade win with the UK, how tariffs are reshaping America's leverage, and what it will take to make these wins permanent. Smart, sarcastic, and no-holds-barred, Taking It Back once again pulls no punches in the fight for truth.

One of the major changes we have seen globally in recent years along the clean energy supply chain is the willingness of governments in countries like China, the US, and the EU to jumpstart funding for projects through investment or production tax credits or grants and loans. The Trump Administration has thrown some of this into doubt with a reshuffling of priorities and threats to somehow cancel or rewrite legislation such as the Inflation Reduction Act.My guest today provides a clear-headed view on the need for funding and how to navigate the increasingly rocky seas as the race for green energy dominance accelerates. Ashley Zumwalt-Forbes has a varied and deep history in both the public and private sectors and most recently worked in the Manufacturing and Energy Supply Chains Office (MESC) in the Department of Energy where she served as the Deputy Director for Batteries and Critical Materials. While there, she oversaw the deployment of ~$6B in non-dilutive equity and ~$10B in tax credits into the US battery supply chain during the Biden Administration. She is currently Principal at Smoketree Advisors.If you liked today's pod on policy, please let me know. I'm on Twitter/X @cberry1 and also find me on Linked In.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1009: Today we sit with COO of Matthews Auto Group Vincent Salvagni to discuss the question on every Dealer's mind; What should I be doing with my inventory level? As consumers rush to beat tariffs, Dealers are worried about overpaying for replacement inventory and getting stuck holding the bag when things normalize. We also talk about Nissan delaying production cuts at its Smyrna, TN plant and Carvana's approach to the tariff headwinds. Show Notes with links:Nissan's plans to cut a production shift at its Smyrna, TN plant have been reversed thanks to new U.S. tariffs on imported vehicles. The automaker is prioritizing domestic output to avoid hefty import duties.Nissan initially planned to end a shift at Smyrna as part of a 9,000-job global cut.Keeping U.S. production high avoids tariffs on Japanese-made Rogues, which made up over a third of 2024 U.S. Rogue sales.Workers had already been offered buyouts; Nissan hasn't confirmed how many accepted.“It could mean saving jobs or it could be hiring people,” said a Nissan spokesperson.Carvana is stepping into the tariff era with confidence, positioning itself to capture increased used-car demand as new vehicle prices rise. After turbulent years marked by overestimation and investor skepticism, the company has streamlined operations and could now benefit from changing consumer habits.New 25% tariffs on imported vehicles may steer price-conscious buyers to the used market.Analysts expect an initial bump in used-car sales, especially from buyers priced out of new models.Carvana has reined in costs, insourced inspections, and restructured debt, improving operational health.Despite holding $5.6B in debt, the company is now generating enough cash to begin self-financing.“We're in a much stronger position than we were 3–4 years ago,” said CFO Mark JenkinsJoin hosts Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1002: Today's show dives into Trump's game-changing 25% auto tariff and what it means for car prices, Hyundai's massive new EV plant in Georgia and OpenAI's latest AI breakthrough in image and text generation.Show Notes with links:President Trump has officially imposed a 25% tariff on vehicles built outside the U.S., effective April 3. The move is set to rattle the global auto supply chain and could result in major price hikes for consumers.The tariff increases from a 2.5% base to 25%, covering vehicles and some auto parts like engines and transmissions.Parts meeting the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) rules will get a temporary reprieve until the Commerce Department sets new regulations.Aaron Bragman of Cars.com said that 50% of all cars are imported from outside the US and encouraged potential buyers to act soon as prices could rise from $3K - $12K “If you need a new car, go get one as soon as you possibly can—lock in a price—because those prices might be going up very soon.”Manufacturers may shift production and pass higher costs to consumers and dealers, while retaliatory tariffs loom from other nations.UAW President Shawn Fain called it a victory for autoworkers, saying “Ending the race to the bottom in the auto industry starts with fixing our broken trade deals.”Hyundai has officially opened its state-of-the-art EV plant in Georgia, marking a historic $7.6 billion investment in U.S. manufacturing. The facility will produce Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis electric vehicles, including the much-anticipated IONIQ 9.Hyundai's project is Georgia's largest economic development investment ever, expected to create 8,500 direct jobs and over 58,000 total jobs.The 2025 IONIQ 5 was the first model built at the plant, with the three-row IONIQ 9 set to debut this spring.Hyundai recently announced a $21B investment in U.S. production, including $9B for EV expansion and $6B for a new steel plant in Louisiana.Hyundai Motor Group executive chair Euisun Chung said, “Together with the talented workforce at HMGMA, we are building the future of mobility with America, in America.”OpenAI is rolling out built-in image generation within ChatGPT, marking a big leap in AI-powered creativity. Dubbed “Images in ChatGPT”, this feature is available starting today across multiple user tiers.Users can now generate images directly within ChatGPT using GPT-4o's “omnimodal” technology.New enhancements improve “binding”, meaning the AI better understands object relationships and attributes—avoiding mix-ups like miscolored shapes.Unlike past models that produced garbled, misspelled words, GPT-4o can now render clean, legible text in images.The AI now accurately follows detailed text-based prompts, even replicating whiteboard notes and comic strip text.Research lead Gabriel Goh calls it a “step change above previous models”, with improved precision in rendering complex promptHosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

We all grieve differently. God is “happy” that Sophie Rain is a slut. Another OnlyFans star isn't having much of a great time. Hey Eliza Coupe… why you look different? Hey Meredith Baxter… why YOU look different. Band ‘Gel' is rocked by OnlyFans purchases and revenge porn. Michigan's Matt Weiss charged for being a total pervert. Tracy Wolfson likes 'em big.

In this episode of the Healthcare Plus Podcast, Quint Studer welcomes Regina Shupe, DNP, RN, and Jennifer Carron Passon, MSOM, CPXP, for a conversation focused on patient experience. Quint, Regina, and Jennifer explore the “patient experience” concept, which has evolved tremendously over the past few decades. Now it encompasses the sum of all interactions from the initial touchpoint when a patient even considers selecting a healthcare organization until the time that they are back home caring for themselves and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. (It's interesting to hear Quint, who has been described as putting patient experience “on the map,” open the discussion with his own history lesson on the field.) They also discuss a 2021 JAMA article—“Criterion-Based Measurements of Patient Experience in Health Care: Eliminating Winners and Losers to Create a New Moral Ethos” by Thom Mayer, Arjun Venkatesh, and Donald M. Berwick—debating the pros and cons of moving away from traditional percentile-based evaluations.Finally, they offer a wealth of takeaways. Listeners will learn from the thoughtful discussion of common barriers people face when working to improve the patient experience and some practical (and doable) tips for overcoming them. About Jennifer Carron Passon, MSOM, CPXPWith 30 years of leadership experience and a Certified Patient Experience Professional (CPXP) credential, Jennifer is a patient experience officer at BJC Health System, a $6B integrated academic health system that serves millions of patients and families across the Midwest.   Her mission is to ignite a passion for human centricity and to transform the healthcare experience for all.

It's not Pac-Man or Donkey Kong or even Pong… it's The Oregon Trail. A true pioneer (and we don't just mean the ones in the covered wagons), the Oregon Trail has sold more than 65 million copies (that's more than the Beatles' White Album) and it spawned an “edu-tainment” industry now worth over $6B. But this wholesome game was created by three Minnesota student teachers, without a single thought towards making money… which is exactly why Oregon Trail made so much of it. Find out why this iconic game is a textbook MVP (Minimum Viable Product)… how an acquisition by Shark Tank's “Mr. Wonderful” almost led to a collab with Barbie… and why the Oregon Trail is the best idea yet.Subscribe to The Best Idea Yet for the untold origin stories of the products you're obsessed with, and the bold risk takers who brought them to life.
