If private practice has felt harder lately, you're not imagining it. Caseloads can take longer to fill, marketing strategies that once worked may not be working the same way, and many therapists are carrying more anxiety about money than they were a few years ago. This week, I'm joined by Diane Webber, a coach in both Money Skills for Therapists and Money Skills for Group Practice Owners, to talk about how we've been responding to these shifts inside our own work. We share some of the changes we've made in our business, from changing our outward-facing name and restructuring programs to creating more community and bringing fresh energy onto the team. More than anything, this conversation is about what it looks like to stay present, curious, and responsive when the things you've relied on no longer work the way they used to.Ready to feel more calm and confident about your money? Do you feel confused, ashamed, or uncertain about your finances? Are you craving support to help shift your money mindset and transform your relationship with money? Are you ready to develop the skills and confidence you need to finally take control of your business finances and build a practice that actually takes care of you? If so, I'd love for you to join me for one of my free online workshops, designed specifically for private practice owners who feel stuck—whether it's mindset blocks, avoidance, or the technical side of managing money. In just one hour together, you'll learn practical tools, strategies, and next steps to move forward in your business (and your life) with clarity, intention, and ease.

But often, that's not the case— it's that the market has changed, your clients' needs have shifted, or the offer, structure, or support system that once worked is ready to evolve. Diane and I talk about how helpful it can be to move from self-blame into curiosity. Instead of asking, “Why isn't this working anymore?” we can ask, “What is this showing me?” Adapting your practice doesn't mean you need to have all the answers right away. Small, thoughtful changes — like experimenting with new forms of support, rethinking your marketing, adjusting a program structure, or bringing in team members who help you see things differently can create a lot of clarity over time. Small Experiments Beat Waiting for Certainty Meaningful change in your practice can come from a series of small decisions day by day rather than one major breakthrough. (00:03:13) Changes in therapy practices (00:08:37) Finding authentic practice direction (00:12:17) Bringing in new team energy (00:15:23) Teaching financial literacy for therapists (00:18:33) Handling unexpected events gracefully (00:30:04) WhatsApp community for practice owners (00:32:39) Returning to a cohorted program model (00:36:34) High-touch support in a four-month program (00:39:15) Planning programs and client schedules (00:42:32) The importance of taking sabbaticals You Don't Have to Figure Out Your Next Chapter Alone So many of the changes we've made this year have come from wanting more connection, support, and clarity. As a business owner, it's easy to believe you need to figure everything out on your own. But growth is often more sustainable when you allow yourself to receive support. That support can come through coaching, community, trusted colleagues, or a stronger team. It can also come from taking a step back, getting honest about what is and isn't working, and being open to making the shifts that become apparent once you have a little more perspective.

About Linzy Bonham: Linzy Bonham is a therapist turned money coach who helps private practice owners and health professionals feel calm, confident, and in control of their finances through her podcast, free workshops and comprehensive programs: Money Skills for Therapists and Money Skills for Group Practice Owners. It all started when she saw her extremely skilled colleagues struggle with the money side of business. Some had even left private practice, or were avoiding starting one, because managing finances was just too stressful. So Linzy set out to support helpers and healers with developing peace of mind about their money. Since so many were never taught money skills, she focuses on the “how” of making the business side of private practice doable — and even super satisfying.

Episode summary introduction: In this episode of The Sean Barnes Podcast, Sean Barnes breaks down what executive presence actually means, starting with why it's some of the most common and least helpful feedback leaders get on their way up. He argues that the suit, the tie, and a clean cut are just the baseline. Real executive presence is built on three things: clear communication that adapts to any room, the composure to stay calm when everything is on fire, and the certainty that comes from a track record of results. Sean shares how he learned to articulate his message to different audiences, from the boardroom to a wireline shop in the Permian, and why the leader who says less often owns the room. He closes with a self-assessment for leaders who want to be remembered in every room they walk out of.   Key Moments 00:00 The vague feedback every rising leader hears, and what executive presence actually means 00:53 Why the nice suit and tie are only the foundation 01:47 Communication skills: cutting filler words and articulating your message clearly 02:41 Adapting your message to every room and navigating up and down the chain of command 03:39 Staying calm and collected when the business is on fire 04:38 Saying less: say the one thing that matters, then stop 05:27 Certainty is the product: leading from confidence 06:24 What confidence really is, and why affirmations in the mirror didn't work 07:23 Operating from fear versus giving the work time, plus the value of a coach or mentor 08:23 A self-assessment, and how to study the leaders who command the room   Key Takeaways The basics are just the baseline. How you show up matters, but communication, composure, and certainty are what take you to the next level. Say less and stay calm. The leader who talks the least, and keeps the room steady in a crisis, is the one people remember. Over explaining reads as chasing validation. Confidence is earned, not affirmed. It comes from a stack of real results built over time and across different domains, not from pep talks in the mirror.   Podcast Show Notes – Episode 286 | 06.16.2026 Episode Title: Executive Presence for Leaders: Communication, Composure, and Certainty   Host: Sean Barnes Website: https://www.wolfexecutives.com   https://www.seanbarnes.com   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/seanbarnes/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/wolfexecutives https://www.linkedin.com/company/thewayofthewolf/ LinkedIn Newsletter: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/7284600567593684993/   Twitter: https://x.com/seanbarnes https://x.com/wolfexecutives   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_seanbarnes https://www.instagram.com/wolfexecutives   TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@the_seanbarnes   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theseanbarnes

In episode 2 of the Tim G miniseries, Tim dives into a raw and intense firsthand account of life inside one of Texas' most violent prison units. He breaks down what it was like arriving young, white, and unprotected in a heavily segregated environment where respect had to be earned fast. He talks about the politics between prison gangs, corrupt officers, contraband hustles, riots, extortion, violence, and the daily survival mindset required to make it through. From guards being flipped for drops, to inmates running serious money operations behind the walls, this conversation exposes how chaotic and dangerous Texas prison life could really get. Tim also reflects on how older inmates taught him discipline, street wisdom, and the importance of carrying himself with respect — lessons that shaped the way he moved both inside and after prison. A brutal, unfiltered look at prison politics, survival, and the hidden economy behind the walls. Topics covered: Texas prison violence, prison gangs, Bloods and Crips, Mexican Mafia, Texas Syndicate, contraband, corrupt guards, prison riots, extortion, survival, redemption, and life after incarceration.

After October 7, educators were asked to guide students while still making sense of their own evolving relationship to Israel and to Jewish peoplehood. What does it mean to teach when the ground beneath the curriculum is still shifting? What has changed in Israel education? What do educators need to hear? As season of six of Adapting comes to a close, Samantha Vinokor-Meinrath interviews David Bryfman on what's changed in Israel education after October 7, drawing on ideas from his new book, Heroism & Hope: Recharging Israel Education in a Post-October 7 World. Together they reflect on how educators and communal leaders have had to navigate the emotional and ideological terrain since October 7, and how history and memory are being shaped in real time. Sharing personal anecdotes and powerful insights, Bryfman articulates a vision of Jewish learning rooted in pride, inquiry, and student agency, offering language for education that makes space for reflection before it demands answers. Purchase the book at https://www.amazon.com/Heroism-Hope-Recharging-Education-Post-October/dp/B0GZBH6QLL/Learn more about The Jewish Education Project at jewishedproject.orgThis episode was produced by Miranda Lapides and Dina Nusnbaum.

Key Takeaways: Wealth Must Keep Moving: Wealth is not something you simply hold onto forever. Like a river, it needs care, attention, and wise management to keep growing and supporting others. Think Beyond One Generation: A strong generational mindset sees wealth as a responsibility, not just ownership. The focus is on stewardship and creating lasting value for future generations. Protect the Principles Behind Wealth: Many families lose wealth over time because later generations forget the habits and values that created it. Keeping those principles alive is essential. Stay Accountable and Keep Learning: Economic conditions change constantly. Adapting, improving skills, and taking responsibility are important for maintaining long-term success. Character Matters as Much as Money: Lasting wealth requires both financial knowledge and strong character. Teaching values, discipline, and wisdom is just as important as teaching money management.  Chapters: Timestamp Summary 0:00 Generational Wealth: Flow, Mindset, and Stewardship 8:22 Generational Wealth and the Breakdown of Financial Wisdom 12:44 Defining Self Through Journaling and Conscious Attention Management 16:18 The Illusion of Individualism and the Importance of Stewardship 20:20 Generational Accountability and Economic Challenges 23:09 Stewardship of Wealth and Character for Generational Legacy 31:15 Embrace Growth and Overcome Discomfort for Financial Success   Powered by Stone Hill Wealth Management   Social Media Handles    Follow Phillip Washington, Jr. on Instagram (@askphillip)   Subscribe to Wealth Building Made Simple newsletter https://www.wealthbuildingmadesimple.us/   Ready to turn your investing dreams into reality?

What does a calf kick have to do with vulnerability management? What can a fighter's mindset teach a security practitioner about operating against an adversary they've never faced?  Ron Eddings brings back fan-favorite combat sports analyst and commentator Robin Black for a conversation that was never meant to be about cybersecurity, and ends up being one of the most insightful episodes on the human side of the field. They dig into how underdogs actually win (hint: we're usually wrong about who the underdog is), what it really means to maintain control in a fight, and why the highest level of mastery might actually look like letting go of control entirely.  The conversation closes with a look at how the cybersecurity landscape is mutating alongside AI, and whether an arms race that trains itself is heading somewhere catastrophic, or whether it's simply the next evolution of the fight. The answer, like most things in this episode, is more nuanced than you'd expect.   Impactful Moments 00:00 - Introduction 02:10 - The Rewind: The Calf Kick and the Peroneal Nerve 04:05 - Welcome back, Robin Black 05:30 - Can smaller still beat bigger? 07:00 - Why underdogs don't win (And why we were wrong) 08:25 - Fighting is about exploiting belief systems 09:30 - Maintaining control against an unknown adversary 10:25 - Adapting vs. anticipating: be water 13:00 - Failure is mandatory 17:25 - How Robin's thoughts have changed about being attacked online 19:00 - AI and the mutating threat landscape 22:15 - Ron's closing thoughts   Links Connect with Robin Black on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robin-black-31b6bb39/   Check out Robin Black on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/RobinBlack   –  Check out our upcoming events: https://www.hackervalley.com/livestreams   Love Hacker Valley Studio?

SUMMARY In this episode, Sensei Diane shares her 47-year journey in martial arts, discussing the evolution of women's participation, the challenges faced in training, and the importance of consistency and motivation. She reflects on her transition from student to teacher and emphasizes the transformative power of martial arts in building self-esteem and community. She also shares her journey from martial arts practitioner to teacher, discussing her passion for joint locks and the importance of adapting training for aging bodies. She emphasizes the need for women in martial arts to have a platform and the lessons learned from organizing events. Sensei Diane reflects on how martial arts has been a lifeline during difficult times and the importance of sharing knowledge within the community. Looking to the future, she expresses her desire to make martial arts accessible for older individuals and the necessity of consistent training for self-defense.   TAKEAWAYS Diane has been training in martial arts for 47 years. She started martial arts for self-defense due to a rough job environment. The dojo environment was welcoming, encouraging her to stay. Training in the 80s was different, with fewer women involved. Women often have to drop out of training due to family responsibilities. Diane's motivation evolved from self-defense to helping others. Consistency in training is crucial for mental and physical health. The dojo serves as a place to leave troubles behind and recharge. Diane emphasizes the importance of not quitting, even when motivation wanes. Transitioning from student to teacher was a natural progression for Diane. Learning multiple martial arts can enhance overall skills. Ego should be left at the door in martial arts training. Feedback from participants is crucial for event improvement. Martial arts serves as a vital social network for practitioners. Martial arts can be a lifeline during personal hardships. Sharing knowledge is essential for growth in martial arts. Adapting training for older individuals is a future goal. Consistent training is necessary for effective self-defense.

How is AI poised to transform our workflows and working relationships in the coming months and years? There's no question that large language models have had an enormous impact on our lives—and most of us have barely scratches the surface of what is possible with these powerful tools. In this episode, Lawrence Rowland joins Riccardo to unpack all that's changed since his last appearance on the podcast in 2024. Lawrence is a veteran of project management with a laser focus on AI transformation and strategy. Together, he and Riccardo explore numerous angles of working with these inhuman (but increasingly capable) agents on everything from research to reporting to improving coworker interaction.The conversation stays grounded in practice: the pair drills down on the massive shifts in AI in merely months, why token budgets matter, and the growing ability of programs to self-prompt and think outside the boxes of our requests. Lawrence shares the fascinating way he uses AI—to synthesize methodologies, generate playbooks, pressure-test thinking, and reveal tacit insights missing from current project narratives.The two AI buffs also confront the human side of the transition, including where accountability falls when work is partially automated and what “transformative AI” might mean for careers and organizations. Less about hype and more about adaptation, Lawrence and Riccardo's conversation hones in the theory on constraints. They remove the rose-tinted glasses and speak to redesigning workflows based on a practical, vital question: where is AI genuinely better, and where are humans still essential?Key Takeaways:How agentic AI shifts work from prompting to task-level execution;The reasoning capacity of AI tools based on token budgets and model capability;The concept of underwriting in retaining human liability in AI-dominated workHow theory of constraints and bottleneck thinking helps decide what to automate vs keep human;How AI can improve communication and project alignment by translating complex work for different audiences.Quote:“Either you're checking the AI or the AI is checking you, and getting used to that will set you up for the new economy.” - Lawrence RowlandThe conversation doesn't stop here—connect and converse with our community via LinkedIn:Navigating Major Programmes, Season 2 Episode 6 with Lawrence Rowland: https://navigatingmajorprogrammes.transistor.fm/s2/23NBER “Economics of Transformative AI Workshop, Fall 2025”: https://www.nber.org/conferences/economics-transformative-ai-workshop-fall-2025arXiv “Some Simple Economics of AGI” by Christian Catalini, Xiang Hui, Jane Wu: https://arxiv.org/abs/2602.20946SSRN PDF “Some Simple Economics of AGI”: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/Delivery.cfm/6298838.pdf?abstractid=6298838&mirid=1Follow Navigating Major Programmes: https://www.linkedin.com/company/navigating-major-programmes/Read Riccardo's latest at www.riccardocosentino.comFollow Riccardo Cosentino: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cosentinoriccardo/Follow Lawrence Rowland: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lawrencerowland/ 

Cody Boden grew up in Grand Junction Colorado, the son of an alcoholic father in a coal mining town. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Cody shares how he found his purpose in the U.S. Army — becoming a sniper with the 1st 40th Cavalry, earning two Purple Hearts from a bombing and a VBIED attack, and witnessing horrors overseas that would follow him home forever. When he returned from war the military forced him into medical retirement — leaving him without the only life he'd ever known. What followed was a bar altercation, drug dealing, a 15 year sentence he served 5 years of, and a battle with opiate addiction he finally won in June 2017. Now he faces his greatest fight yet — terminal liver failure connected to an illness contracted during deployment, waiting for a donor since May 2023.This is a story of war, trauma, addiction, prison, redemption, fatherhood and faith — and a man the system tried to throw away who refused to give up. _____________________________________________ #PurpleHeart #VeteranStory #TrueCrime _____________________________________________ Connect with Cody Boden: Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@onemoremission Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cody.boden/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@UCtFo-QFNRfa-_c4uZh0WKyg Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61580807506052 Donation: livingdonorreg.upmc.com _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Purple Heart Army Sniper to Federal Prison — Cody's Full Story 00:21 Growing Up in a Coal Mining Family and the Childhood That Shaped Everything 04:13 High School Struggles and the First Time Drugs Entered His Life 07:07 The Family Coal Mining Business and How Everything Started to Change 11:28 His Father His Grandfather and the Discipline That Defined His Childhood 16:01 Losing His Grandfather and the Moment He Turned to Drugs to Cope 18:59 Joining the Army to Escape — The Decision That Changed Everything 21:31 Army Training and How He Fought His Way Through Early Addiction 28:35 Making It to Army Sniper School and What Life in Alaska Really Looked Like 37:18 Preparing for Deployment and Adapting to the Most Extreme Environments Imaginable 41:01 Life in Alaska — Brutal Weather Brutal Training and What It Built in Him 45:00 Deploying to Iraq — His First Combat Experience and What He Wasn't Ready For 51:40 The Toughest Missions and the Friends He Lost in Battle 54:00 Survivor's Guilt — What It Does to You When the People Next to You Don't Make It 01:00:43 Heavy Combat Devastating Losses and What Leadership in War Really Looks Like 01:11:04 Coming Home — Injuries Forced Retirement and the Painkillers That Started Everything 01:18:50 A Bar Fight An Arrest and His First Real Taste of Jail 01:27:49 How Addiction Took Over and What It Did to His Family 01:30:47 Fighting for Custody of His Kids While Fighting His Own Demons 01:39:10 Prison — The Legal Troubles the Politics and What Survival Really Looks Like Inside 01:46:35 Prison Life Racism and the Mental Health Programs That Started to Help 01:58:03 Therapy Childhood Trauma and the First Real Steps Toward Recovery 02:05:00 Life After Prison Meeting Katherine and Then the Hepatitis C Diagnosis 02:12:42 Building a New Life Staying Clean and Finding Professional Purpose 02:18:11 The Terminal Liver Disease Diagnosis and the Transplant Journey Nobody Prepares You For 02:26:26 Medical Hardships Finding Hope and the Faith That Kept Him Going 02:32:23 The Delays the Donors and the Nightmare of Navigating the Medical System 02:36:09 What His Family and Legacy Give Him the Will to Survive 02:43:17 Reflection Gratitude and What Moving Forward Really Looks Like _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka Learn more about your ad choices.

This week on Adapting, Samantha Vinokor-Meinrath sits down with Ariela Ronay-Jinich, founder and executive director of Olamim, to explore how education helps people navigate the richness of their identities. Drawing on her experiences as a Mexican Jew, educator, and parent, Ariela reflects on how her identities shaped her understanding of learning as a powerful tool for development, belonging, and community-building. Ariela shares how Olamim empowers parents, children, and grandparents to create Jewish meaning together through stories, practices, culture, and shared experiences. From Latin-Jewish families to the broader Jewish community, she argues that Jewish learning is not simply about transmitting knowledge but about helping people become more fully themselves while seeing their family's unique story as an essential part of the larger Jewish story. Their conversation examines what happens when we reimagine Jewish education with families—not institutions—at the center. Learn more about Olamim at olamim.org.Learn more about The Jewish Education Project at jewishedproject.orgThis episode was produced by Miranda Lapides and Dina Nusnbaum.

Dr. Hunter Clymore, Director of Safety with Vista Minerals, joins Emily to discuss proactive safety through the lens of workplace examinations. As part of NSSGA's recognition of National Safety Month, Hunter shares his expertise on how companies can move beyond the "check the box" mentality to develop a culture that identifies and addresses hazards before they lead to injuries, accidents, or citations.   This vital conversation explores the difference between reactive and proactive risk management. Hunter highlights the dangers of "pencil whipping" examinations and explains why MSHA inspectors look for the "weak signals" that indicate a failing safety system. This episode serves as a guide for leadership and frontline workers alike to strengthen their hazard recognition and ensure that safety remains a dynamic, living part of daily operations.   Main Themes:   Moving beyond "pencil whipping" workplace examinations to ensure true regulatory compliance and safety. The importance of identifying "weak signals" and industrial challenges before an accident occurs. Adapting safety practices to the dynamic and ever-changing environment of a mine or quarry. The critical role of leadership visibility and field interactions in fostering a proactive safety culture. Engaging employees through open communication and active participation rather than passive attendance. Shifting the operational mindset from tracking incident numbers to monitoring trends and improving controls. Toolbox Talk Discussion Questions:   Hunter joins the podcast to talk about the importance of workplace examinations as tools for proactive safety. How does this mindset of proactivity contribute to your understanding of risk management?  Hunter shares that proactive safety involves engaging with employees working throughout the site. Why do you think it's important to include this kind of feedback?  Does anyone have a story they'd like to share about their experience with proactive workplace examinations?    Key Takeaways:   "To have true proactive safety it needs to be more than just going through the exams and filling those out, and going through the motions and checking the boxes." "The best safety programs are not built around accident investigations. They're built around identifying weak signals before the accident happens." "You cannot change mining safety effectively with a static approach in a consistent changing environment. You must have a consistent finger on the pulse of safety." "Leadership must be visible out in the field. Employees notice where leaders spend their time. Safety cannot just exist in policies and meetings." "Engagement is not checking a box, signing training sheets, or passive participation. It's engaging everyone to help create a safety culture." "The goal is to build an operational system that consistently recognizes and controls risk before people get hurt."

Discussion centered on the evolving role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the MSP technology stack, emphasizing the necessity for MSPs to deploy tools that can comprehensively manage AI, particularly concerning security and shadow IT. Multiple participants highlighted the lack of current solutions that aggregate and control AI activity via a single interface, with an explicit focus on the requirement to educate clients about AI privacy, security, and usage costs. The practical challenge of MSPs asserting thought leadership in AI was underscored, as was the complication of usage-based AI billing models leading to unexpected customer expenses. Supporting details were drawn from the recently released Kaseya State of the MSP report, which showed that customer acquisition remains the sector's main challenge, with 71% of surveyed MSPs identifying it as their top concern. The report further found that only a minority of MSPs are executing effective sales and marketing strategies to educate clients. Additionally, 48% of respondents reported AI and automation as top client needs, yet a significant drop was observed in customers spending more than $25,000 a year with MSPs, falling from 75% to 41%. This reduction is attributed to clients undertaking technology initiatives independently, diminishing the perceived value of MSP services. Adjacent discussions addressed common issues around automation and AI adoption. Several practitioners noted a prevailing trend of automating legacy processes rather than leveraging AI for forward-looking transformation. It was emphasized that most AI implementations among peer groups are focused on operational efficiencies for past tasks, such as help desk and marketing automation, with few examples of innovative new service offerings. The dialogue also covered practical, risk-related aspects of managing client relationships, particularly when enforcing security measures such as multi-factor authentication in the face of client resistance. Implications for MSPs and IT leaders include the need to strengthen governance around AI adoption and service stack adjustments, actively communicate the value of AI security and management services, and anticipate client concerns about cost control and privacy. The observed decrease in customer spending points to operational and strategic risks around client engagement and service value. MSPs are advised to ensure that automation efforts align with future requirements, not just past service models, and to enhance accountability in both vendor and client-facing operations.   Title:    Should I Adjust My Stack for AI?  MSP Question of the week:  How should I adjust my stack for AI? Kasaya State of the MSP report is out: Running an MSP is harder than ever is the headline. https://www.kaseya.com/blog/msp-growth-challenges-2026/ Question for you! Amy had a post on LinkedIn last week telling MSPs that they are doing AI wrong. The final question was, are you adopting AI for the future or just automating the last 10 years. Where is your focus?. https://www.thirdtier.net/2026/05/31/most-msps-are-using-ai-wrong/ M&A: When is the best time to sell an MSP?

When Ashley Parent first appeared on Machine Shop Mastery, Mills Machine Works was fighting for survival. After the unexpected loss of her father, who founded the company in 1995, Ashley and her siblings inherited not only a family business but also the challenge of keeping it alive. Almost overnight, the shop lost roughly half of its revenue as customers questioned whether the next generation could continue the highly specialized work that had defined the company for decades. What followed was a crash course in entrepreneurship, sales, finance, and leadership. Ashley had to learn how to generate new business, understand the numbers behind profitability, and reposition the company for a different market. Through relentless outreach, honest storytelling, and a willingness to ask for help, she slowly rebuilt customer confidence and created a path forward when the future seemed anything but certain. Then an unexpected opportunity arrived. A local shop owner who had followed Ashley's journey reached out about finding a home for his employees. What started as a simple conversation quickly evolved into the acquisition of an entire machine shop. The move expanded Mills Machine Works' capabilities, added new customers and employees, and accelerated the company's growth trajectory in a way Ashley never could have predicted. In this inspiring follow-up conversation, Ashley shares the realities of rebuilding a business after tragedy, navigating financial challenges, integrating an acquisition, and leading a growing team through change. She also offers hard-earned lessons on pricing, profitability, relationships, and why asking for help may be one of the most powerful business strategies a shop owner can embrace. The result is a remarkable turnaround story. From staring at empty spindles and uncertain prospects to pursuing a $3 million growth vision, Ashley's journey is a powerful reminder that resilience, adaptability, and community can transform even the toughest circumstances into opportunity.

Most people think elite performers are born with confidence. They're not. AJ and Johnny sit down with former Marine Force Recon Scout Sniper AJ Pasciuti to explore the hidden side of success: self-doubt, failure, mentorship, and the relationships that shape us before we believe in ourselves. From becoming a sniper despite feeling like an unlikely candidate to one of the most famous sniper-versus-sniper engagements in modern military history, AJ shares why courage comes from action, why failure is part of the process, and why no one succeeds alone.

Welcome back to the podcast, everyone. Today, we are examining the architecture of memory, trauma, and the blurred lines of reality. Hitting theaters and VOD on June 12, 2026, is a film that I promise is going to get under your skin. It's called This Tempting Madness, a breathtakingly tense psychological thriller that marks the feature directorial debut of Jennifer E. Montgomery.  Now, if you think you've seen all sides of Bridgerton superstar Simone Ashley, think again. She delivers a raw, bold, and genuinely transformative performance as Mia, a woman who awakens from a coma with a fractured memory, a grievously injured body, and the devastating realization that the man she loves is completely missing. Alongside an incredible supporting cast, the film takes us directly inside Mia's disoriented mind as she tries to piece together a past she can no longer trust.  But what makes This Tempting Madness truly unforgettable is where the story came from. This isn't just a Hollywood script; it is deeply inspired by a harrowing true story. Director Jennifer E. Montgomery wrote the film with her longtime collaborator and spouse, Andrew M. Davis, after living through her own firsthand tragedy. Years ago, Montgomery watched her own best friend's life quietly collapse over a period of six months—culminating in an act of severe violence. When her friend finally woke from a coma, those entire six months of memory were completely gone.  Instead of making a straightforward documentary, Jennifer and Andrew built an immersive cinematic landscape that mirrors how trauma actually works—in loops, contradictions, and shifting colors. From a custom score built literally out of Simone Ashley's own vocal tones to vintage Panavision lenses that make the frames feel like unpredictable memories, every single detail of this film was crafted to make us question what is real right along with Mia.  We are incredibly lucky to have the mastermind behind this phenomenal film with us today. Joining me to talk about the immense responsibility of turning personal trauma into art, pushing cinematic boundaries, and running towards the fire of complex storytelling... please welcome the director and co-writer of This Tempting Madness, Jennifer E. Montgomery!
