SUBSCRIBE HEREAI can feel overwhelming when you're running a small business, yet it also offers a chance to simplify work and open new possibilities. In this episode, Lindsay Pinchuk is joined by Dr. Nici Sweaney, the founder of AI Her Way, to talk about how entrepreneurs can bring AI into their businesses in a way that feels intentional and aligned with their values. Nici shares the turning point that led her from academia to building a seven-figure company around AI and why she believes women need to engage with it now to stay competitive. She explains how to think of AI as a “blank slate intern” that can be trained to support your goals, why ethical use matters, and how keeping human values at the center ensures these tools work for you rather than the other way around.This conversation invites listeners to see AI not as a shortcut, but as a responsibility and an opportunity to shape the future of work in ways that are inclusive and sustainable. It also asks us to consider both the immediate benefits and the bigger picture: AI is here to stay, and the way we choose to use it now will influence the kind of businesses, communities, and opportunities we create in the years ahead.Episode Breakdown:00:00 AI for Small Business Success with Dr. Nici Sweaney,01:57 From Academia to AI Entrepreneurship06:55 What AI Her Way Offers to Businesses08:52 Understanding AI vs Generative AI13:19 Training AI Like a Blank Slate Intern18:24 Practical Ways Entrepreneurs Can Use AI22:43 Why Claude Is Dr. Sweeney's Favorite AI Tool26:06 Best Practices for Using AI Confidently30:25 What Ethical AI Really Means35:12 Inside the AI for Impact Hub38:15 Building a Seven-Figure Business with AI41:35 Three Essential Tips for New Founders44:49 Use AI EthicallyConnect with Dr. Nici Sweaney:Access a free 14-day trial of Dr. Nici Sweeney's Gen AI Essentials course: https://pages.aiherway.com.au/14-day-gen-ai-dear-foundherDr. Nici's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ai_herway/Get on the waitlist for Marketing Made Simple for Small Business: https://lindsaypinchuk.myflodesk.com/waitlistFollow Dear FoundHer on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/dearfoundherPodcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm Hosted on Acast.

Jesse Beaman, an ambient composer based in Mexico City, joins a growing number of artists who are no longer making their music available on Spotify. He cites the platform’s requirement for musicians to have 1,000 yearly streams to receive royalties, as well as CEO Daniel Ek’s investments in Helsing, a company that makes AI-powered defense weaponry. While his platform may not be as big as other Spotify protestors like Deerhoof, Beaman’s career is marked with tours across four continents, video production, and collaborations with members of Interpol and M83. These connections have proven vital for his success. KEXP’s Roddy Nikpour talks with Beaman about his complicated Latinx identity, his prolific network, and his stance against Spotify. “Spotify is killing people’s attention span,” Beaman says in the interview. “Before you can even get connected to a certain artist, they’re trying to sell you on another artist.” When it comes to distributing his music, Beaman is turning to Bandcamp and physical media like vinyl. No matter how you listen, he hopes fans will practice intentional listening: “If you can give music the focus it deserves, I’ll be happy.” Support the show: kexp.org/deeperSupport the show: https://www.kexp.org/sound/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Your reputation isn't just what people say anymore—it's what machines decide is true. In this episode of Spin Sucks, Gini Dietrich explains why structured trust is the new currency of reputation—and how AI tools are already encoding your brand. If your data is inconsistent, outdated, or missing, you're invisible (or worse, misrepresented). She covers what structured trust actually means (and why it matters), how machines decide if your brand is credible, the risks of ignoring structured trust, practical steps to build a “source-of-truth” page, use schema markup, and publish citation-ready content, and how to measure if your efforts are working. If AI were asked who you are…would it get the answer right?

This episode features an interview with Thea Hayden, CMO at Cognizant, a leading professional services company that brings deep technology and industry expertise together to help our clients transform and stay ahead. Thea discusses the importance of a strong partnership with IT, and the significance of multi-channel tactics. She also shares insights into experiential marketing tactics and her commitment to fostering a culture of experimentation and fun within her marketing team. Key Takeaways:We often discuss building strong relationships with the CFO, but investing in your relationship with your CIO is essential too, since the martech stack is so crucial to success. Overindexing on any strength will make it your weakness; nothing works in isolation and a multichannel approach is necessary. AI may be the death of spray and pray tactics and broad reach marketing, since personalization will be so much easier and more successful. Quote: ”The tactic that may finally die because of AI is spray and pray, right? Because everything's going to be so personalized and so easy to personalize, and so much more effective because of that. And so I think even the days of just super broad reach maybe are dead altogether.”Episode Timestamps: *(03:00) The Trust Tree: Start with the end in mind*(16:48) The Playbook: Overindexing on strengths, makes them weaknesses*(33:30) The Dust Up: Build a strong relationship with IT*(34:26) Quick Hits: Thea's quick hits Sponsor:Pipeline Visionaries is brought to you by Qualified.com.

Today, you are going to hear a deeply candid conversation with Phil Norman, principal of Norman Design Group, to explore the complex, often contradictory realities of luxury residential design. With over 25 years of experience crafting high-end interiors in Southern California, Phil brings both practical wisdom and an unfiltered perspective on the challenges designers face today. And part of exploring these ideas, is a willingness to be open and candid about the challenges as well as the solutions. Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home. Where excellence meets expertise. Design Hardware - A stunning and vast collection of jewelry for the home! - Where service meets excellence TimberTech - Real wood beauty without the upkeep LOME-AI.com, simple, inexpensive, text to video harnessing the power of AI to grow your firm, beautifully. Honesty About Budgets: The Ultimate Luxury Phil dives headfirst into one of the most taboo topics in interior design: the budget. He explains why being forthright—even when the numbers are higher than a client expects—is not just necessary, but an act of professional integrity. He shares strategies for diffusing tension around cost conversations and how client trust is forged in transparency, not fantasy. “People can handle a bigger number. They can't handle being blindsided,” Phil says. “The danger is in pretending it can be done for less.” Educating the Client: Battling Pinterest, Misinformation & HGTV Phil reflects on the modern design client's double-edged sword: unprecedented access to ideas... and a flood of misinformation. Whether it's misconceptions about pricing, timelines, or what's even possible, Phil sees part of his job as "un-educating" clients before re-grounding them in real-world processes. He describes the delicate balance of respecting a client's inspiration while also anchoring expectations in logistical and structural realities. “Everyone's seen a Pinterest kitchen,” he says, “but that doesn't mean it works in their space, or within their scope.” Home as Sanctuary: A Pandemic Shift Phil shares how the pandemic permanently shifted his clients' priorities—from “how it looks” to “how it feels.” There's now an increased desire for tactile comfort, flexibility, and timeless quality. The home is no longer just a showpiece—it's a retreat, a workplace, a classroom, a safe space. He emphasizes the growing importance of durability and livability over trends, noting that luxury now means emotional connection, not just expensive finishes. “Design has to feel like home—not just like a magazine spread.” Kitchen as Mission Control: Designing with Precision Phil also explores how kitchens have evolved into the emotional and operational hubs of the home. With every family interaction, from weekday breakfasts to weekend entertaining, passing through this space, it's no longer just about cabinetry and counters—it's about lifestyle programming. He discusses layout strategies, appliance coordination, lighting zones, and how technology and wellness are being layered into the modern kitchen environment. Design Leadership: Advocacy, Not Subservience Phil argues that successful design professionals must step into the role of advisor and advocate—not order-taker. He calls out the danger of defaulting to client appeasement and encourages designers to protect the integrity of the design process, even if it means challenging a client's assumptions. “We're not there to just say yes. We're there to guide—to lead with experience.” This conversation isn't just about design—it's about leadership, trust, and emotional intelligence in a high-stakes creative business. Whether you're a seasoned designer, a rising star in the field, or simply someone dreaming of building a home that feels like home, Phil Norman offers a masterclass in how to do it right—with candor, clarity, and craft. Thank you, Phil. Amazing.

What happens when you mix SmartRecruiters, a global AI pivot, and a comms pro who loves to “shake shit up”? You get Allyn Bailey dropping truth bombs on everything from why legacy ATS platforms should be left in a museum next to floppy disks, to how scheduling interviews is apparently the Mount Everest of HR tech problems. Joel and Chad dig into: Why “feature bloat” is killing platforms faster than a buffet kills willpower The rise of AI agents that make every TA leader feel “special” (just like their mom told them) How SmartRecruiters is “releasing the Kraken” on AI adoption—while trying not to terrify every compliance officer on Earth Why Kenya and Eastern Europe are quietly kicking everyone else's ass on AI innovation And yes… the most celebrated use case for AI in recruiting is still… scheduling. It's part therapy session, part roast, part masterclass in how to burn down old TA processes without getting fired. Strap in. Season 3 of The AI Sessions is here.
Episode 394 of The VentureFizz Podcast features Brian Stempeck, CEO & Co-Founder of Evertune. Think about how people search for things on the web now and GenAI's massive impact. A lot of people just go straight to different platforms like ChatGPT with the goal of just getting the answer to what they are searching for versus having to go to a website to find the details. This evolution matters and it matters a lot, especially if you are a brand or publisher. In the past, you had to worry about SEO to hopefully rank high in the Google search results. Now, the rules have changed and companies are trying to figure out what to do. Is your brand being mentioned in the LLMs? If so, what is being said? And if you ask multiple times, how does the response vary from the LLMs versus the consistency of the search results that you would get from Google. It's a wild wild west and this was the void that Brian recognized and led him down the path of starting Evertune, which helps companies build its brand presence for visibility in AI search. It's a category called GEO that being Generative Engine Optimization. The company recently announced a $15M Series A funding, led by Felicis Ventures, including returning investors Eniac Ventures, NextView Ventures, Roger Ehrenberg and others. In this episode of our podcast, we cover: * A discussion around the shift in consumer behavior and how they are looking for information in the world of GenAI. * Brian's background and getting his career started as a journalist and then working in consulting at Bain after business school. * How he got involved in The Trade Desk as employee #8 even without adtech or sales experience. * The full lifecycle story of The Trade Desk to an IPO in 2016 and how they differentiated from the competition. * How Brian's role evolved through the years at the company and how he gained a board seat. * His biggest lessons learned from his experience at The Trade Desk. * The background story of Evertune and what led him and his co-founders down the path of starting the company. * All the details of Evertune and how they are helping brands and agencies. * Advice for building out your GTM strategy and a key piece of advice for hiring salespeople. * And so much more!

This week's episode explores how artificial intelligence (AI) is boosting corporate profitability while reshaping the labour market. Since the launch of ChatGPT in late 2022, S&P 500 revenue per worker has climbed 15% after years of stagnation, but entry-level jobs are increasingly under pressure. The Federal Reserve's focus has now shifted from inflation towards employment. Our economist expects five rate cuts by March 2026, though policy uncertainty and eroded trust keep our 10-year US Treasury yield forecast steady at 4.25%. History offers many examples of presidential overreach, episodes that typically prove temporary. With the Trump administration set to continue for another three and a half years, however, investors may feel compelled to exercise caution and consider diversifying beyond the US and the traditional financial system, including assets such as gold.
In this episode, Dave and Jamison answer these questions: Two junior engineers recently joined my team, and I've been tasked with onboarding them. This is the first time I've been responsible for junior devs, and I'm struggling with how to coach them up. For context, we're a small engineering team where self-sufficiency is highly valued; processes/overhead is minimal, and we have a real bias for action. As such, when they ask me for help, my intuition is often to respond “Keep looking, figure it out!”; in my mind, walking them to the answer would be anthithetical to our culture and set the wrong expectation for how they should go about solving problems. This is especially the case when they throw their hands up and say “Help, I'm stuck, what do I do”. Though, I don't want to be so unhelpful that it frustrates them or legitimately impedes their progress. I've also noticed them sometimes going “behind” me to ask others engineers for help, which makes me think that I am being too unhelpful. The number one question I ask myself is: How much help should I be giving them? How do I find the right balance here? I'm seeing more and more AI slop in my org's code base that I fear will have meaningful impact on the integrity and maintainability of the application we deliver to customers. Everyone talks the talk of “Ultimately, it's the implementer's responsibility to audit and understand the code they ship,” but few seem to walk the walk. How can I best work with my team to address this, especially in a context where leadership is prioritizing velocity?

This episode is a juicy one. I'm joined by my pal Nate Wong. Nate is a partner at The Bridgespan Group and co-author of a recent white paper, “AI Cannot Be Ignored,” which dives deep into the opportunities (and responsibilities!) that AI presents to nonprofits and the broader social sector.With the Fundraising.AI conference around the corner—where I'll be speaking, by the way—this conversation couldn't come at a better time.This episode was both energizing and sobering. AI isn't just about saving time—it's about making space for what matters: human connection, meaningful strategy, and real impact. But we can't be passive. We have to actively shape how AI shows up in our work—and that starts by engaging with it, not avoiding it.Important Links:Connect with Nate: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nathanielkwong/ AI for Humanity: https://www.ffwd.org/ai-for-humanity Bridgespan: https://www.bridgespan.org/insights/exploring-ai-opportunities-for-nonprofits-and-the-social-sector How to Train ChatGPT: https://go.rheawong.com/annual-fundraising-plan-tracker1-3127-4300 Upcoming Events: https://www.rheawong.com/events/ My Big Ask Gifts Program: https://go.rheawong.com/big-ask-gifts-program My Book, Get That Money Honey: https://go.rheawong.com/get-that-money-honey My Newsletter: https://www.rheawong.com/

Premji Invest is an investment firm that backs some of the biggest names in the CFO and enterprise tech stack, including Anaplan, Zuora, Coupa, and Looker. In this episode, CJ is joined by Sandesh Patnam, the firm's Managing Partner, to discuss their approach to investing and the future of CFO tech. Sandesh talks about the evergreen nature of Premji's investment model and explains how this permanent pool of capital enables the company to focus on deep partnerships and durable growth, rather than chasing fund cycles or portfolio diversification. He breaks down why he views total addressable market (TAM) as a floor rather than a ceiling, how investing across both public and private markets creates a strategic advantage, and how startups should approach capital construction and optionality in today's market. The conversation also touches on the evolution of the CFO toolkit, how AI is shifting the finance role, what persistent finance problems are still waiting for innovation, how org design is changing inside finance teams, and why he believes AI is a bigger shift than both the dot-com and mobile eras.—LINKS:Sandesh Patnam on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sandeshpatnamPremji Invest: https://in.premjiinvest.comCJ on X (@cjgustafson222): https://x.com/cjgustafson222Mostly metrics: RELATED EPISODES:BlackRock Managing Director on the Secrets of Durable Companies - —TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) Preview and Intro(02:08) Sponsor – RightRev | Navan | Rillet(06:59) Evergreen Capital and Premji's Approach to Investing(09:25) Portfolio Construction(12:58) TAM Versus SAM Versus Product(15:28) Sponsor – Pulley | Brex | Aleph(19:51) Seats Versus Outcome-Based Pricing(23:30) Defining Durability(26:31) Public Versus Private Investing(28:44) Why One Team Manages Both Public and Private Investing(30:47) Capital Construction for CFOs With Evergreen Investors(32:13) How and When Evergreen Funds Seek Liquidity(35:32) Building Optionality in Capital Strategy Amid Market Changes(38:01) Secondary Markets in the Private World(41:39) The Evolution of the CFO Tech Stack(43:41) AI and Systems of Action(45:43) How CFOs Are Starting To Interact With AI Tech(49:09) A Finance Problem That's Open for Innovation(50:25) The Evolution of the CFO's Role Beyond Finance(51:33) The AI Era vs. Prior Tech Eras—SPONSORS:RightRev automates the revenue recognition process from end to end, gives you real-time insights, and ensures ASC 606 / IFRS 15 compliance—all while closing books faster.
