Moving beyond the typical "fake it till you make it" advice, they explore how conditional self-doubt shows up in specific areas—like shooting videos, talking about money, or making cold calls—even when we're confident elsewhere.

Sourcing expert Isaac Hetzroni, aka @thesourcingguy, shares tips on China, AI, factory tours, and finding top suppliers. Essential insights for smarter e-commerce strategies.   Join us as we explore the dynamic world of sourcing with Isaac Hetzroni, aka @thesourcingguy, a rising influencer known for his insightful content on YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram. Isaac, though lesser-known in the Amazon space, shares his extensive experience in manufacturing, having grown up in the industry with his family's apparel and electronics factories. He provides valuable insights on whether businesses should look beyond China for sourcing, and shares practical tips on understanding product costs and minimizing risks. Isaac's engaging social media presence brings these topics to life, making sourcing strategies both informative and entertaining.   We'll also examine the complexities and misconceptions surrounding sourcing from China, where advanced infrastructure and a skilled workforce have cemented its status as a manufacturing powerhouse. Despite pushes for diversification, replicating China's efficiency in other countries presents significant challenges. Apparel manufacturing emerges as a more adaptable sector for relocation, yet the transition is fraught with logistical hurdles. The discussion extends to global manufacturing trends and China's impact on the U.S. market, including the rise of Factory to Consumer strategies and the role of AI in overcoming language barriers, all of which are reshaping global trade relationships.   In this episode, we emphasize the importance of building strong business relationships, especially when dealing with Chinese suppliers. Personal connections often intertwine with professional dealings, and trade shows play a crucial role in maintaining these relationships. We explore strategies for finding the best suppliers beyond platforms like Alibaba, using tools such as Import Yeti and trade shows to discover high-quality factories. Additionally, we highlight the importance of quality control and the advantages of diversifying supply chains to new regions. Tune in to gain insights into effective sourcing strategies, quality control, and the evolving landscape of global manufacturing.

In this episode, The Annuity Man discussed:  Annuities with a push-comes-to-shove feature  Advantages of liquidity  Balance between potential and liquidity  Why flexibility matters in annuity planning Meeting diverse financial needs through annuity design   Key Takeaways:  Certain annuity products, such as the MYGA (Multi-Year Guaranteed Annuity), fixed-rate annuity, and CD annuity, offer a liquidity option known as the "push-comes-to-shove" feature, allowing penalty-free withdrawals in case of emergencies. The "push-comes-to-shove" feature in annuities provides access to funds when faced with unexpected financial circumstances, offering peace of mind and flexibility. By allowing penalty-free withdrawals, these annuity products cater to individuals seeking a balance between growth potential and liquidity, ensuring financial security during unforeseen events. The inclusion of the "push-comes-to-shove" feature in annuity products reflects an understanding of the need for accessible funds, particularly in times of crisis or emergencies. Annuity providers recognize the importance of offering products that not only provide long-term growth opportunities but also address the potential need for immediate access to funds, catering to the diverse financial needs of their clients.   "Annuities that provide you the liquidity, either taking out interest or 5% or 10%, those are push-comes-to-shove annuities." —  Stan The Annuity Man   Connect with The Annuity Man:  Website: http://theannuityman.com/  Email: Stan@TheAnnuityMan.com  Book: Owner's Manuals: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/how-do-annuities-work YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCXKKxvVslbeGAlEc5sra2g  Get a Quote Today: https://www.stantheannuityman.com/annuity-calculator!

If my math is correct, there are 201 more shopping days until Christmas!! Did that statement surprise you?  Are you wondering, “Why on earth is Pastor Joe bringing Christmas up in June?”   I think most of us would agree, that for the world, Christmas is the most celebrated of the Christian Holy Days, with Easter coming in second. For many Christ-followers in the “Western World”, those are often the only two Christian Holy Days we celebrate. In the last 5 or so years, through my study of God's Word, I've had a growing a conviction that JESUS would have His disciples add a third Holy Day Celebration to our annual calendars that would on par with Christmas and Easter. That Holy Day is PENTECOST! Through His life and teachings, JESUS showed incredibly great honor for the HOLY SPIRIT and urged His disciples to do the same.  JESUS went as far as to say that the HOLY SPIRIT in us, is better than JESUS beside us! While at Christmas, we celebrate the “Incarnation” of GOD on the earth, on Pentecost we celebrate the “Indwelling” of GOD in our lives.  I'm praying that you'll make plans right now to join us this Sunday at our service at 9:30 or 11AM, or in our livestream service at 11AM on riverbluff.live, as we celebrate the coming of the HOLY SPIRIT in our on-going study of Riverbluff's “Essential Beliefs”.

I heard Aaron Grando drop the term "pretotypes" on Leader Generation this morning and had to hit pause. Three minutes in, I realized I'd been vibe coding for months without knowing there was a name for it. But pretotypes? That's when I knew I had to get him on the show immediately. We're talking about taking your stream-of-consciousness ideas and building working drafts before you've even figured out what you want. For business owners doing $0.5 to 10 million a year, this isn't just another tech trend—it's the shift that stops you from waiting weeks for simple prototypes. Aaron's VP of Creative Innovation at Mod Op, and in this spontaneous follow-up to his Leader Generation episode, we dig into what vibe coding actually means for your bottom line and why small teams are suddenly punching way above their weight class. Action items to consider that tie to this episode: Immediate (This Week) Identify your development bottlenecks - Where are you currently waiting on programmers or outsourced developers? Try a simple test - Pick one small coding need and experiment with ChatGPT or Claude Map your current process - Document how long it takes to go from idea to working prototype Set prompt boundaries - Practice asking AI for logical, non-emotional responses Short-term (Next 30 Days) Assess team capabilities - Identify who on your team has enough coding background to effectively prompt AI tools Start with pretotypes - Use AI to visualize one business idea before investing in full development Test platform limitations - Use AI to check if your ideas are feasible within your current tech stack Calculate current costs - Figure out what you're spending on development delays and outsourcing Medium-term (Next 90 Days) Build AI into your process - Make vibe coding part of your standard ideation workflow Train your team - Get key team members comfortable with AI coding tools Measure time savings - Track how much faster you can go from idea to testable concept Expand use cases - Beyond coding, use AI for project planning, gap analysis, and cross-industry perspectives Strategic (Next 6-12 Months) Evaluate in-house vs. outsourcing - Determine if AI tools change your staffing strategy Invest in the right tools - Move beyond free ChatGPT to specialized coding tools if volume justifies it Create AI-enabled processes - Build systems that let AI agents handle routine business tasks Develop competitive advantage - Use speed-to-market improvements to outmaneuver slower competitors Key Questions to Ask Yourself Before listening: How long does it currently take us to go from business idea to working prototype? What development tasks are we avoiding because they seem too time-intensive? After listening: What's the first idea I've been putting off that I could pretotype this week? Who on my team could become our "conductor" for AI-assisted development? What would it mean for our business if we could cut development time by 75%? Resources Mentioned Tools: ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor (coding-specific AI) Concept: Pretotypes (pre-prototype visualization) Original episode: Leader Generation Podcast - "Vibe Coding" episode with Aaron Grando Here is the episode on Leader Generation.   About Guest Aaron Grando: Aaron Grando, VP, Creative Innovation on Mod Op's Innovation team, is a seasoned technologist with over 15 years of experience at creative agencies.

In this episode, Dr. Doug Lucas and Sarah Glicken delved into the complexities of bone health, emphasizing its crucial role in longevity. Dr. Doug noted that while osteoporosis is often seen as a condition affecting older adults, its roots can be traced back to earlier life stages, making early intervention vital. They shared the limitations of DEXA scans, particularly their inability to assess bone quality, and why they advocate for the use of REMS technology, which offers a more comprehensive evaluation by assessing bone density and microarchitecture. We also touched upon the potential dangers of conventional bone medications, such as bisphosphonates, which can lead to side effects like jaw necrosis and atypical fractures. They emphasized the importance of exploring alternative therapies that focus on lifestyle modifications that include osteogenic loading and supplementation such as vitamin K2 and vitamin D3 (not calcium!) This episode serves as a comprehensive guide for individuals seeking to understand and improve their bone health through informed choices and proactive measures.Dr. Doug Lucas is a double board-certified orthopedic surgeon turned osteoporosis specialist on a mission to show the world that osteoporosis is preventable and reversible. As the VP of Women's Health, Hormone and Lifestyle Optimization at LifeMD and the creator of The OsteoCollective, he empowers individuals to optimize bone health, hormones, and HealthSpan through classic and cutting-edge strategies.Sarah Glicken is the co-founder of Precision Bone Imaging, a company dedicated to shifting the narrative around aging—starting with skeletal health.

In this episode, Glen Sutherland interviews Amresh Singh, who runs Home Abroad, a firm that assists international investors in purchasing U.S. real estate. Amresh shares insights into the challenges foreign investors face and how his company provides a comprehensive solution. Key Points Discussed: Introduction to Home Abroad: Home Abroad is a one-stop shop for global investors, offering services from property search to financing, setting up LLCs, and property management. Amresh has a background in mortgage financing and real estate technology, which inspired him to create Home Abroad after recognizing the difficulties foreign investors face in the U.S. market. Investment Strategies: Investors range from value-focused individuals looking for properties in the Midwest to those interested in luxury second homes or short-term rentals in popular locations. Common strategies include long-term rentals for cash flow and fix-and-flip projects. Amresh emphasizes the unique ability of U.S. real estate to generate cash flow with leverage through long-term fixed mortgages. Advantages of U.S. Real Estate: U.S. real estate offers a distinct opportunity to generate cash flow while leveraging properties through favorable mortgage options (e.g., 30-year fixed rates). Investors can appreciate their assets in U.S. dollars, providing additional benefits for foreign investors. Common Mistakes by Foreign Investors: Amresh warns against insufficient due diligence on properties, including understanding property taxes, HOA fees, and rental regulations. He advises investors to ask thorough questions and ensure their loan programs align with their investment strategies. Due Diligence and Financing: Home Abroad utilizes a DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) loan, allowing investors to qualify based on rental income rather than personal income. The process includes obtaining an appraisal to ensure the property will cover its costs, which helps investors make informed decisions upfront. Services Offered: Home Abroad assists investors with property searches, financing, and connecting them with real estate agents. They have a property search platform that matches investment objectives, streamlining the research process.

Mutual Funds are often seen as the McDonalds of the investment world. They are ubiquitous and convenient, and yet, they are seen to lack the prestige of a fine dining experience aka Private Equity et al. In this episode, we take on the big question: Are mutual funds only for the salaried middle class, or is there a bigger story here? Deepak and Shray dive deep into the history and perception of mutual funds, from their once-exclusive status to becoming the go-to vehicle for SIPs and forced savings.  But why don't you hear family offices or the ultra-wealthy proudly boasting about their mutual fund holdings? We explore this through the lens of economic class distinctions (India A, B, and C) and unpack how perceptions of exclusivity and quality affect investment choices. Whether you're planning for retirement, your child's education, or just wondering if your portfolio is too “plain vanilla,” this is a conversation that will make you rethink how you view mutual funds. -- 0:00 – Intro 3:29 – Choosing Exclusivity Over Simplicity 7:34 – Volatility Laundering 20:32 – Liquidity in University Endowment Funds 31:49 – Alternative Investments 38:58 – Mutual Funds vs Other Investments 44:12 – Why not hire a personal fund manager? 48:04 – Advantages and Disadvantages of Mutual Funds 1:12:26 – Use cases for Mutual Funds 1:22:41 – Who are Mutual Funds not for? -- More about us: https://cm.social/pms Connect with us : https://cm.social/pms-connect Deepak's Twitter: @deepakshenoy Shray's Twitter: @shraychandra Capitalmind Twitter: @capitalmind_in

Traditional routes—think bank loans and institutional finance—often come with red tape, long waits, and restrictive requirements. In a recent Raising Private Money podcast with Richard Lesperance and  Jay Conner, they cracked open the secrets of raising private money—a game-changing alternative for investors looking to close more deals, faster and with greater flexibility.What is Private Money?Put simply, private money refers to funding provided by individual investors rather than banks or hard money lenders. Jay highlights a key distinction: while hard money lenders act as intermediaries between investors and funds, private lenders are direct, one-on-one relationships. These individuals use their liquid capital or retirement accounts (often through self-directed IRAs) to passively invest in real estate, earning a healthy return while the borrower benefits from quick, customizable funding.Jay's Journey from Banks to Private MoneyJay shares his own story: after years of relying on banks, his line of credit was suddenly cut off during the 2008 financial crisis, leaving him scrambling. This “problem” forced him to look for solutions outside the conventional system. A friend introduced him to the concept of private money, and within 90 days, Jay raised over $2 million in new funding—without ever asking for money directly.The secret? Jay adopted the role of a teacher. Instead of pitching or selling, he educated potential lenders about how private money works and the advantages it offered. This educational approach attracted 47 private lenders (and counting), many of whom had never heard of private lending or realized their retirement accounts could be used in this way. Where to Find Private LendersJay breaks it down into three main categories:Your Warm Market: Friends, family, colleagues, and contacts in your phone and social networks.Expanded Network: Connections made through networking, real estate events, and referrals.Existing Private Lenders: Individuals already lending to other investors, often found at self-directed IRA company networking events.According to Jay, over 70% of self-directed IRA holders are interested in loaning money to real estate investors, making these events rich ground for connection.Advantages of Using Private MoneyThe benefits, as Jay enthusiastically outlines, are many:Control: The borrower sets the terms—interest rate, payment frequency, and loan-to-value ratio.Speed: With no bank bureaucracy, deals can close in as little as seven days—a major advantage in a competitive market.No Application Hassles: No credit score checks or drawn-out approval processes.Unlimited Potential: Unlike banks, there's no cap on how much private money you can access or how many deals you fund.Attractive Returns for Lenders: Lenders earn solid, secured returns (often much better than a local bank), creating a true win-win.Is it Safe?Investor and lender protection is paramount. Jay describes several safeguards:Funds are wired directly to the attorney or title company's escrow account, never to the investor personally.Each loan is secured by a mortgage or deed of trust, never unsecured.A conservative loan-to-value (typically 75% of after-repair value) ensures a cushion for market fluctuations.Lenders are listed on insu

In this episode, we interview Christina Campero, an entrepreneurial force behind Prosperia, a tech startup focused on AI in healthcare. Christina discusses her professional journey, moving from a background in bioscience and healthcare consulting to co-founding Prosperia.
