In the market, Turbulence is just another opportunity to tighten your seatbelt and double down on strategy. One day it's up, the next it's down—fear drivin' folks out the game, greed makin' ‘em chase shadows. But here's the real: whether you rock with him or not, the man holdin' the pen affects the paper—and I'm talkin' bout your paper. Alignment don't mean agreement—it means awareness. If he loses, we all feel it. If he wins, we all rise with it. Our market, our money, even our momentum—it's all on the line. But I digress… This ain't about politics—it's about positioning. You can't control the storm, but you can build your ark. Keep your emotions in check, keep your faith high, and your strategy airtight. 'Cause while the world watches the news, real wealth builders watch the moves. Stay sharp. Stay prayed up. And play the game like your last name is Fortune.TRUMP TURBULENCE | Wallstreet Trapper (Episode 149) Trappin Tuesday's

Cyber threats are not static—and HITRUST knows assurance can't be either. That's why HITRUST's Michael Moore is leading efforts to ensure the HITRUST framework evolves in step with the threat environment, business needs, and the technologies teams are using to respond.In this episode, Moore outlines how the HITRUST Cyber Threat Adaptive (CTA) program transforms traditional assessment models into something far more dynamic. Instead of relying on outdated frameworks or conducting audits that only capture a point-in-time view, HITRUST is using real-time threat intelligence, breach data, and frameworks like MITRE ATT&CK and MITRE ATLAS to continuously evaluate and update its assessment requirements.The E1 and I1 assessments—designed for organizations at different points in their security maturity—serve as flexible baselines that shift with current risk. Moore explains that by leveraging CTA, HITRUST can add or update controls in response to rising attack patterns, such as the resurgence of phishing or the emergence of AI-driven exploits. These updates are informed by a broad ecosystem of signals, including insurance claims data and AI-parsed breach reports, offering both frequency and impact context.One of the key advantages Moore highlights is the ability for security teams to benefit from these updates without having to conduct their own exhaustive analysis. As Moore puts it, “You get it by proxy of using our frameworks.” In addition to streamlining how teams manage and demonstrate compliance, the evolving assessments also support conversations with business leaders and boards—giving them visibility into how well the organization is prepared for the threats that matter most right now.HITRUST is also planning to bring more of this intelligence into its assessment platform and reports, including showing how individual assessments align with the top threats at the time of certification. This not only strengthens third-party assurance but also enables more confident internal decision-making—whether that's about improving phishing defenses or updating incident response playbooks.From AI-enabled moderation of threats to proactive regulatory mapping, HITRUST is building the connective tissue between risk intelligence and real-world action.Note: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guest: Michael Moore, Senior Manager, Digital Innovation at HITRUST | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mhmoore04/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast | https://www.seanmartin.com/Marco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining Society Podcast & Audio Signals Podcast | https://www.marcociappelli.com/______________________Keywords: sean martin, marco ciappelli, michael moore, hitrust, cybersecurity, threat intelligence, risk management, compliance, assurance, ai security, brand story, brand marketing, marketing podcast, brand story podcast______________________ResourcesVisit the HITRUST Website to learn more: https://itspm.ag/itsphitwebLearn more and catch more stories from HITRUST on ITSPmagazine: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/hitrustLearn more about ITSPmagazine Brand Story Podcasts: https://www.itspmagazine.com/purchase-programsNewsletter Archive: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/tune-into-the-latest-podcasts-7109347022809309184/Business Newsletter Signup: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-business-updates-sign-upAre you interested in telling your story?https://www.itspmagazine.com/telling-your-story

Nesha Pai opens up about her own turning point, when she realized that saying yes to everything was costing her the very life she wanted to build. What happens when your calendar looks full but your soul feels empty? How do you tell the difference between something that's safe and something that's aligned?    Through personal stories and thoughtful questions, Nesha invites you to consider what you've been holding onto out of habit, fear, or obligation, and what could open up if you made space for something better.

And two things happened, not instantly, but over the course of the next year, I realized that the sadness at losing my mum is so overwhelming, I legitimately have no more energy to be angry and sad and frustrated at all the non-vegans in the world. I just don't have emotional capacity for that because I've lost my number one person.Lesley Logan 0:33  Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.Lesley Logan 1:16  Hi, Be It babe. Okay, this, today's episode is really fun. I, first of all, like, this woman is just such like an angel when she just talks. She was just like, you just want to listen to her stories. But also I was really excited to chat with her, because I knew we were talking about aligning your purpose and your beliefs. And I was like, okay, yes, you guys all need that. And then her expertise happens to be in a different topic, and I got so interested, based on what she was saying, that I had to go into what she also does, which is not normally what we do here on the show. We don't normally talk about being a plant-based eater, but, actually, don't turn this off, I promise you, I promise you, as someone who is a vegan, who eats meat, I am as, you know, consciously and environmentally sound as I can be with that, I've been really interested in changing that over and so meeting someone like Kate has truly opened my eyes into something more positive and happy. And so whether or not you want that for yourself, I want you to listen to this interview, because her approach to how she wants to change the world had to change at some point in her life. And I think we all have been in a place where we believe something, and someone else we know does not believe that, and it just becomes this friction around us, and we get frustrated because we want things to happen faster. We want them to believe in it sooner. We want them to change everything sooner. And the truth is that there that's not necessarily the way that you get people to be on board with your journey. And so I really, really, I think you can insert any of the words she's using for your beliefs and see how you can use her experience to support you in your journey and what you want to do. Also, also, her Be It Action Items are amazing. She hit all that. She hit the bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted. So she's a winner. Here is Kate Galli. Lesley Logan 3:14  All right, Be It babe, I have a really fun guest. I was looking up all the things they're doing. I really enjoyed how they described a business from hell and still prioritizing themselves. I really, I was like, I was like, oh, someone can do that, then that is a Be It Till You See It podcast guest, if I ever saw one. So Kate Galli, can you tell everyone who you are and what you rock at?Kate Galli 3:35  Lesley, it is my pleasure to be here. Thank you so much. I am a health coach, author and fellow podcaster, and I help vegans and the plant-based curious to any degree prioritize their health and happiness and thrive with plants. Their happiness component is really core to what I do, and how I do that is I help people create the mindset that makes prioritizing their most effective, eating and exercising action, simple, sustainable and fun. Lesley, I will say everything I speak to is mindset-related, so it is applicable to anyone with a health goal, no matter what way you choose to eat. So everyone's welcome. A little bit about, I guess, how I got into what I do as a health coach. You know, I was a debilitatingly shy teenager, and I joined the gym and started lifting weights specifically to, yes, transform my body also to transform my confidence, and that is one of the things that I love most about what I do now, whether it's in the gym with clients or coaching clients online, is to see this transformation so far as confidence and the ability to back yourself. That is something that I am incredibly passionate about seeing in others.Lesley Logan 4:59  Yeah, I, I am, I agree. I think, like, sometimes people think, like, when you say confidence and working out, it's often like, it is the look of it, the aesthetics of it. But as someone who lives at the gym as well, the when I when I pick up a heavier set of dumbbells, like, there's something really powerful about that and like, so it's actually like, I think hopefully becoming more and more normalized that, like, when you can give yourself a pull up, even if it's assisted, when you can, like, when you can actually do 10 push ups, when before you had to take breaks, like you are building confidence in yourself, because you're showing yourself how much stronger you are. And I think, like we, you know, the strength of, the strength that we all have is something we can all work on, and we have to work on all the time. And so I love that you also highlighted happiness. And I think that's really important. Because I do think that when people go on any kind of health journey, at some point they start doing it as a form of punishment and not a form of pleasure. How did, like, was that your journey? Was you, were you always a happy workout person? Or like, did you have to find that along the way? Kate Galli 6:02  I was probably always a happy workout person. However, I certainly overdid it. I remember in my early 20s, when I was new to the gym and wasn't a personal trainer yet, I do an hour weights and an hour cardio six days a week, and I remember a trainer coming up to me and saying, the more you do with it, your exercise, the more you have to do, and the less you eat with your food, the less you have to eat. And it didn't really click at the time. But as you said, in hindsight, I was a bit about punishment, certainly with the cardio component. Never really liked that, and certainly about restriction with the food component too. There were so many foods that I was fearful of, whether it's fat because it made me fat or gave me pimples, you know, those were my misbeliefs, or whether I was fearful of carbohydrates, which I was that, like a decade, probably, definitely, those were some of the things that you know, made it less fun than it could be. And I think in recent years, even though I've had the fitness component so locked and loaded, I've, I lost the happiness a little bit because I'm so passionate about my mission. And I'm sure you can relate to this, or many listeners can relate to this. You know, we get this drive and this just focus and purpose and just go, go, go, and it's effective until it isn't, and it does get us results. However, the enjoying the journey and the prioritizing the happiness is something that I've really looked to focus on, honestly, just in the couple of, past couple of years. Lesley Logan 7:37  Yeah, I understand, I understand that too, like, I think I grew up going, well, I'll just work harder. Like, you know, if I just work harder, I get better grades. Like, if I work harder, I can make more, like, you know, if you just work extra hours, you get paid more. And then, like, you start your own business, because you're like, I have this impact I want to make. I have this vision I want to do. And because you're so driven for it, it's pretty easy to just keep going, but at some point you wake up and going, oh my God, what am I doing? Like I am my own worst boss. I'm so hard on myself. I'm not happy. I'm doing the thing I said would make me happy, and I'm not, and I'm not happy. And so there's some place where, like, the purpose you have on this planet, and you get misaligned. So you're doing the thing, but you're not enjoying the doing of the thing. And so I feel like we, I feel like we all have to kind of go through that to actually get on the right path, because I don't know. I mean, maybe it's possible just to enjoy the beyond purpose and enjoy it all at the same time. But I feel like for a lot of us, we have to go hold on, where did I make a wrong turn or why am I not doing this. How did you find that?Kate Galli 8:43  Oh, so much. Um, first, I just want to say also that approach doesn't sell the lifestyle. When I was the extreme personal trainer, people might be, they might kind of think, oh, that's slightly inspirational. However, that's too much for me to even try what she does with her food and exercise. Same go with the veganism right? When I was the angry vegan that is not selling anyone on the lifestyle. I'm not welcoming people on board, so I made the change in the hardest, harshest possible way. I don't know how it would have come about if life didn't jump in the way and slap me in the face, but I'll try not to be so long with this. It is a bit heavy. But when I was first vegan, I'd been vegan a couple of years, and I was very much an animal rights activist. This is maybe, I don't know, six years ago now, and I was coming home for Christmas, and my dear mom rang me and she said, Katie, I don't know what to do about Christmas, because you're the animal rights activist, and your dad's anti vegan, and it's all about food. And we always had conflict, Lesley, my dad and I had, we had conflict always, but more so when I gave up all animal products. And she said, unless you want to mastermind a vegan feast and sell the family on it. I'm like, done. I will mastermind that feast. Perhaps you could sell the family on it. We had an amazing Christmas. I made eight new dishes. The food was fantastic. Mum was so grateful. When I was about to fly home to Sydney after that holiday, she said, Katie, will you watch What the Health with me? Now that's a documentary I had been emotionally blackmailing her to try and watch ever since I became vegan, ineffective, surprisingly, and so after I'd made all that effort, she watched it with me. She said, I'll try this plant-based thing for a couple of weeks. Years later, she's still plant-based. She's becoming more animal rights activist like me, our relationship could not be stronger, not the best for her relationship with my father. Anyway, three and a half years ago now, I got the phone call from my father that I always thought I'd get from my mum. Dad's not the healthiest with the way he eats or thinks, and I always thought I'd get the phone call from Mum, Katie, it's your dad. And I got the phone call from dad. Kate, it's your mum. And Mum had died suddenly, and I'd spoken to her that morning, a Sunday morning, at 7 am as I walked along the beaches, like we spoke every single morning, and by 3 pm she was gone. And as anyone who's lost the person they love most in the world knows, the shock and the sadness, you have no space for anything else in your world. And two things happened, not instantly, but over the course of the next year, I realized that the sadness at losing my mum is so overwhelming, I legitimately have no more energy to be angry and sad and frustrated at all the non-vegans in the world. I just don't have emotional capacity for that because I've lost my number one person. I also realized that with Mum, I have no regrets. We both knew how much we loved and respected each other, 100% no regrets there. If that had been my father, I would have had regrets, because our relationship was not as it should be, and a huge component of that was the judgment I held towards him for his actions. And so bit by bit, I forced myself out of that angry vegan and you know, life was just all about spreading this message back then. Now it's all it was about animal rights, nothing else, no space for anything else, wasn't effective, I wasn't happy, and so that is what forced me out of it. And I don't know what else would have, sadly.Lesley Logan 12:40  I'm so sorry, but I really appreciate you sharing, because I think we could insert any word for vegan and anti-vegan. I think we can insert political parties. We could insert like, different war, all the different things, because it really is, it becomes this like thing in the middle. And when families get together, it's just like it's glaringly there, and it starts to feel personal, because they're personal to us, and we love them. We're like, how can, how can I love someone who is again, something I care about so much, so I just appreciate you sharing that, because I definitely think your story, I think anyone can listen to and even if you aren't going plant-based or that's not something you care about, there is someone in your life who doesn't care as much about one thing or cares differently than you do, and you can think about, like, okay, I'm gonna have regrets there. So what can I do about it? The other thing is, it's really, and this is kind of like a sad, funny, but like, I have, I'm not plant-based totally. Like, call me a vegan who eats meat because I'm like, very dairy-free. I am a lot of I'm not so grain-free anymore, but there's a lot of grains I just can't eat. They don't do well. I can't do oats. Oat milk was my favorite. That's not a thing I can do. Like, I'm out on that, but like, at any rate, I choose to eat some meats that I'm very particular about. Like, how are they farmed all the different things. But we're, because of that, we're very aware of other people's dietary needs. And so Brad or somebody, was like, oh, are they vegan? I'm like, oh, you would know. If they were vegan, we would already know. And it's because, and maybe not so more anymore, but like, back when you became a vegan, like, that was kind of a thing, like, you wore it on your shirt. You were telling everyone to do it and I think that what we have learned through so much of this is that whatever it is we care about, yelling at people about how wrong they are is never going to get them to want to join us, you know, that's just not the way to do it. You have to figure out, like, how, what is it that they care about, and how can what they care about align with what we care about, and we can, like, show, you know, they have to experience it. They have to have their time. So anyways, I think that's really beautiful. So how did so, so tell me what's next. So, like, then you, you still wanted to stay on your purpose and your path and your journey of being plant-based. But how did you align changing how you went about it to that purpose?Kate Galli 15:01  So it's a constant battle, right? It's a constant daily awareness. One thing that helps me is with my podcast, I've interviewed, like literally hundreds of the most passionate and compassionate activists or authors athletes around the world. And I look at the ones who seem effective and happy in what they do, and I will say I've got mad respect for any type of activist, even the most extreme ones. However, they're not the happiest, and I worry about their health, and I think they only survive because they live in their little vegan bubble, and they only associate with other vegans. If they had to integrate into the world and associate with all their non vegan friends and family all the time, which is the path I've chosen to, you know, all of my family now and friends basically, are non-vegan. You have to prioritize that happiness, and I actually made it a little bit actionable to help myself get there. I have an ABC and A is an awareness of how my life was going to look in three months, six months, 12 months, if I kept going down that same path, you know, my relationship with my father would be even worse, my relationship with my colleagues, my clients, just random strangers. There was a lot of pain about how it was going to happen if nothing changed. So then B is the brainstorm. I thought, what are some of the things I need to stop doing? I stopped sharing those brutal posts on social media, because to share them, you have to see them, and then you get hate comments. I stopped having those conversations, and everyone knows them, whether it's about politics, as you say, or religion or a war, whatever it is, you know that conversation that isn't going to end well, because either you and that other person had disagree or in some scenarios, especially with veganism, they're just up for the debate. They don't really care either way, they're just like, let's have a debate with this crazy vegan, right? I stopped those conversations, and what I started doing is I started sharing happy, good news stories. I actually created a whole email every week around the good news story. I started sharing delicious recipes. I started sharing delicious food, which, by the way, was my mom's very effective approach. So I'm modeling the love and compassion and deliciousness that she led with in the few years she was plant-based. So those are the things I started doing, and the C is for a commitment. This is why I so widely share I'm no longer an angry vegan, because you can get when little angry activist Kate makes an appearance, someone's going to call me on it, right? They're going to go, hey, aren't you now the vegan that leads with love and compassion and deliciousness? So it's kind of a form of accountability. So, you know, that's the way that I had to have a talk to myself as well. Because initially there was, I guess, an awareness that that was I letting the animals down by no longer flying the flag so aggressively? And I came to the decision, and I talk about this all the time with guests on my podcast, that it's not necessarily what feels right in our heart all the time, it's what is effective. Right? So you, if my big picture is what it is, then I need to take the most effective actions to get there. And they might not always be my natural instinct. You know, sometimes I just need to calm down, get clear on what my vision is, and then take that more effective action. Lesley Logan 18:27  I love this. I love this. Again, you can apply this to anything, but I think it's actually like an awareness of what you want, brainstorm all the different ways you're going to do that, and then commit to doing it like that's whatever it is. But I do think that what you want to, I want to highlight more, is like, I think we put a lot of pressure on ourselves to be all or nothing people, that if we're not all in, then it's not going to work. And I understand, like, the people who talk about manifesting, you have to like, you have to like, do all the things, but that's so much pressure, and it's not always attracting people on the journey. So I love that you, like, made really good, just shared really good recipes with people. I think, like, when people don't realize that, like, it can taste really good, you know what I mean? Like, you can actually make things taste good with it. You can sneak 'em in as like, oh, like, I had, one of my girlfriends was a happy herbivore, and she wrote all the books about the happy herbivore, and she made a cheese ball that was, like, insane. And I would just be like, I'll just, how do I make this cheese ball at home? Like it's the most amazing thing, because I miss I have, I can't do dairy. I miss it. I miss cheese. I want a cheese ball. I want to be with the people they're having cheese at the Super Bowl. I want to have it. And she, like, showed me, and then all of a sudden, it's like, you just put it out. You don't have to tell them what it is. And they dip in, like, this is amazing. It's like, you know, so, like, sometimes it's like, you have to, you get more, you know, bees with honey, right? Like, that's really what it is. So, and I apologize to the vegans listening, if you are against the honey part, I know. Some people like it. Some people don't. You know, there's a whole thing. So anyways, but I think it's really it is that what is the most effective approach to get people to understand what you're wanting them to do? And in any vision, you have to paint the picture of something beautiful that people want to be part of. And sometimes, if we're shouting from the rooftops too loud about all the bad things, it makes people feel almost paralyzed, and they're like, I don't even know what to do next. I like so I'm just, I'm just gonna, I'm actually gonna stand firm in what I'm doing, because I don't, you know. So what an what an amazing thing you did. And also, I like that you use the public accountability to help you stay, stay on because, yeah, we all have instincts. It's like, I'm just gonna yell at that person, because that's what I want to do, because that's gonna, that's gonna make me feel good, but it's not necessarily gonna get you what you want. Kate Galli 20:50  No, agreed, 100%. Lesley Logan 20:52  So, okay, you, we haven't ever really talked about plant-based and I kind of want to get into it, just because I know that you have such a wonderful approach to it. How, how, like, how easy it is to be a plant-based eater. Because I think some people get overwhelmed with, like, if, where am I gonna get my protein, where am I gonna get all these things, and so it's hard to feel like, how do I change over? Do you, is this something that you do in a step by step approach? Is this something like, you, like, try to switch people over all the way, what's, what's the form of action that's easy for people? Kate Galli 21:26  For sure. A little background, you know, I made it harder than I needed to initially, for myself. Before I became vegan, nine years ago, I'd been vegetarian for 23 years, so no meat for 23 years. By that point in time, I'd been a personal trainer, so a low carb, high protein, vegetarian personal trainer for a decade. I decided I needed to be vegan. I walked into the gym and announced to all the other trainers in this gym, bro-type of the gym, that I was going vegan. One of them said, well, goodbye, lean muscle mass. And I realized that if this didn't work for me, it would reflect really badly on the lifestyle. So I put a lot of pressure into basically calculating, not just the macronutrients, they're actually quite easy, but all the micronutrients that I needed to hit in every single meal. So my meals just were a lot of effort and not so much deliciousness early days, I made it really hard because I had that point to prove, you know, cut to the chase nothing changed, right? I didn't gain any fat, I didn't lose any muscle or strength. I gained some energy. It was all good, but I made it hard. So now I look to make it easier for other people. I have a coaching program where I focus on clarity, confidence and consistency. I think they're really important with any health goal. And the clarity is actually where we look into building huge emotional intensity around your why, and we also align that why, or more so the actions you need to take to achieve that why with your most important values and beliefs. So that's getting really clear on your vision and the huge emotional intensity and how it's aligned with those emotional states that you're most drawn to. That clarity will pull you through those struggle straight days that we all get with any health goal, the confidence that's where the food comes in. Also, we're handling relationships with non-vegan loved ones, or whatever it may, might be. So yeah, in the confidence component I am all about, hey, this is the anatomy of a healthy plant-based meal. This is what it looks like. If your goal is muscle gain, you can obviously gain muscle, but you've got to be really aware, not just plant protein. That's pretty easy. You've got to be aware of caloric density often, for example, a big guy with lots of muscle. Not to stereotype, but say, there's the guy that's already happy with his physique. He might try plant-based, for the environment, for his health, whatever it may be. And he might lose a lot of weight just because he's, you know, he's swapped steak for spinach or something. That's not gonna work. It needs to be swapped for sweet potato and black beans, you know, with more caloric density, stuff like that. So that's the confidence. And then consistency is helping people stay on track.Lesley Logan 24:17  Yeah, I think I appreciate you talking about there's, like, different ways to do it, and like, what are your, what are your actual health goals for it? Because it is true. I think people think I'm gonna subs, I'm gonna, I think we're past the point people thinking it won't taste good. I mean, every vegan restaurant I've ever been to makes you realize that you can have vegan comfort food, and it is amazing. You know, like, you can have, you can have all of that, but it is the Can I also lift the way I want to lift. Can I do the things that the hobbies that I want to have, and I think like having joy in our lives is really important, and I hate and I think having joy outside of what we eat, but like in the things we do, but how we eat and how we fuel ourselves affects the things that we do. So I appreciate that you, you share that I am, I mean, I will just say, like, here in the States, we have, in the moment that we're recording, we have a massive bird flu problem, which is why, and it's been going on for a long time, and so eggs have been creeping up and all that. I live in a state where the eggs must be cage-free. So I was actually like, well, that works. I think that that's great. They have to be cage-free. I think they can't be bad. But what does that mean? It means our eggs are $20 for 12 pack. So I was just like, all right, so we're gonna have to think about, you know, maybe, maybe we're going even more plant-based than we were before. And like, how do I as a 42-year-old woman who wants to stay strong, who wants to have the energy to do the business that I do, like, I have to film workouts for Pilates and stuff like that. How do I reduce animal protein? Put it to plant protein and and also, like, you know, keep up what I've got, continue to remain strong, and then hopefully it's cheaper than the $20 eggs. Like, that would be great. Kate Galli 26:03  I've got you it is cheaper. Two things. First off, you know you need to look at tofu scramble to replace those eggs. My dear mom, when she first went plant-based, hated tofu. I won her over with tofu scramble over crispy, baked, smashed potatoes. Loved it. So there are so many delicious recipes out there that you can make on mass. I would also say I also have a 5S strategy for plant-based protein, for just inserting it into your meals and I can run through that strategy. Lesley Logan 26:34  I want to hear it if you don't mind, because all of my ladies are over 40, they have heard from all the different health people we have to have protein with perimenopause and menopause like make sure you're doing your protein. Don't overdo the cardio. So we're all on base with you. So what's, what's the 5S?Kate Galli 26:48  Awesome. So the first S is for the star. So that's when the plant-based protein is the star of the meal. And that's what you used to think of your protein like, right? So it's the steak was the old way. The star might now be the lentils and a curry, right? Or the marinated tofu. It's one kind of hardcore, decent serve of the plant-based protein. The next S is for scatter over you've got your regular meal, maybe your oats, not for you Lesley, but for someone else, who can have oats and you scatter over your hemp seeds, more protein per gram than beef, your pumpkin seeds, whatever it might be. The third S is for a stir through. Again, you've got your meal. It's delicious. Maybe it's a little bit lacking in the protein. And so you stir through your plant-based protein powder into your cereal, or your whatever it may be into your soups, you're just stirring through that additional plant protein. Next up is one of my favorites. It's the side. So maybe I just want that meal, that salad that I've made for everyone else to go with their meal, and it is delicious and abundant. It's just lacking in plant-based protein. So I have a side of a cup of edamame or crispy chickpeas or whatever it may be. The fifth sneaky one is the sauce. You know, early days, PT, personal trainer, a lot of sources were like high caloric density and low nutritional value and just made of processed oils and all of this rubbish. A lot of the plant-based sources are amazingly full of sneaky protein, like a silken tofu in a tofu ricotta type of a sauce, or an edamame guac. So guacamole that's chock full of edamame or whatever it may be. So yeah, they're the 5S and I use a combination of them every single day. I could make it six and make it a snack as well. So, yeah, there's lots. Lesley Logan 28:43  I love that. I love that there's a there's a snack that we, I love when my husband makes me it's this popcorn with spirulina, Oh, little bit of nutritional yeast, salt, and I believe there is some a little bit of garlic, or maybe it's kind there's a tiny bit of something that just gives a little bit little bit of spice. And so yes, your fingers turn like, green or black. So he's like, he eats it with chopsticks. I'm not so good, so I just, I'm like, well, we'll just eat and then we'll wash our hands. But I love that snack, because also, with all that stuff added, you actually end up with protein on your popcorn. Like, it's like, see if there's a way to find these different things and also get all the nutrition from that. Brilliant. So I don't know, Kate, I didn't, I didn't expect to go into thinking maybe I'm gonna be more plant based after this. But I think, I think, I think I am just because, I mean, we already, my husband and I, are already very big on the environment. We're very conscious of, like, if we're gonna eat animal protein, like, how are we getting it? Where is it where is it coming from? We really try to make sure we're really good about that as best we can. But at this point, some point, you go, okay, now it's just becoming more expensive to even do that. Yeah, and it's and that, and that's not, you know, we're not attached to that. We're not attached to it. So I think this is really cool, but also I really love the idea of, like, kind of figuring out which s I want it to be, how, like, how I want to do it, and then, and then be kind to ourselves about trying to add it in, because it can be overwhelming, and we can't do all or nothing. So we have to be able to start to maybe it's like one meal a day that we, you know, change, and then go from there. Kate Galli 30:19  100% and you mentioned, like cost of living, all of that. You know, when I used to be a planner of meal prep, and was very exacting with that, but now I just do food prep, where I prep individual components on the weekend, and I can make a variety of meals. And you know, when I prep my dried chickpeas, which takes no time, or my dried lentils, that is just a colossal amount of very cost-effective plant protein that I can just use in almost a limitless number of meals. And my dried chickpeas and lentils really aren't going up in price. They're incredibly cheap.Lesley Logan 30:57  Yeah, yeah, no, I think that's, I mean, we got so much from you today. We got being it until we see it, and being happy, and are checking our approach to our purpose on this planet. And then we got some just tips to like, adjust our life. Because I do think that no matter what you want to do in this world, what we forget is that our food is fuel. And if your food is not fueling you in a way that actually allows you to show up confidently with energy and stamina and things like that. Then you, you are distracted from the purpose that you have on this planet.Kate Galli 31:30  100% yeah, and whatever your huge purpose is, it is, sadly, going to take longer than you would most love, so you better be fueling your body well and looking after yourself in all the other ways to have, as you said, the sustainability to be in it long term, because it is going to take a while.Lesley Logan 31:47  Yeah, I know. Sorry, folks. You heard it here from Kate. In case you haven't heard it from my mouth, Kate's telling you like it just takes, everything just takes longer than we want. And it's not because you're not great at it. It's not because you don't, aren't, aren't deserving of it. It's not because you like you shouldn't you, in hindsight, your relationship went left when you went right. It's because you becoming the person you have to be who can do the thing, has to get there you have to, you, yourself are a muscle that has to be trained and cultivated and strengthened and challenged to get to the place you want to go. Kate Galli 32:20  Completely agree. Lesley Logan 32:22  Kate, I think you're amazing. I could talk to you forever. We're gonna take a brief break and then find out where people can find you, follow you, work with you. Lesley Logan 32:29  All right, Kate, where do you like to hang out? Where can people connect more if they want to nerd out and just get to know you and work with you more?Kate Galli 32:38  The best place is the main website. So that's strongbodygreenplanet.com. Via the site, you'll find my Plant Positive Journal dedicated to my dear mom, my Healthification Podcast, and basically everything else that I do online. So, strongbodygreenplanet.com. Lesley Logan 32:56  Oh, love it. We'll have all that link below before we let you go. I know you've given us a lot of great things to think about. But for our people who are like, okay, I'm really drawn to Kate. I really love what she's talking about. What are some bold, executable, intrinsic or targeted steps they can take to be it till they see it? Kate Galli 33:13  I've got to say my number one go-to is to elicit your own personal values if you haven't yet. So your values are those emotional states that you are naturally drawn to. Think of where you spend your time, your energy, your money. My top two are freedom and integrity. But there's no right or wrong. Yours might be love, connection, truth, whatever they are, elicit those values and align them with your most important goal or vision. More so, align them with the actions you need to take to achieve that goal or vision that's going to be bold, because when you, when you have this big, powerful vision that's about more than just you, you're going to be more inclined to stick to it and take those bold actions. It's going to be executable because you have alignment. That is everything. Alignment between what you're looking to achieve and the daily actions you're taking is so much more powerful. It's intrinsic, because what you're looking to do is aligned with your heart. Now you're not stopping yourself, you're not fighting yourself. I call this the stop fighting yourself part of the process. And finally, it's targeted, because, again, you had absolute clarity on where you're looking to go and what you're looking to achieve.Lesley Logan 34:29  You're so great. We are so I, like, lucky to have gotten to know you today. I feel just so honored to have met you, inspired. I'm really excited to to hear how our Be It Pod listeners apply this, what they take out of this, what their favorite part is. So you all make sure that you tag the Be It Pod, tag Kate, and make sure that she hears what your takeaways are. Reach out to her at strong body, strongbodygreenplanet, right? I just think it's really amazing. And I think, your approach can, is something, again, I'll say it one more time for everyone, you can apply this to anything that you care about, and it's going to make life more fun, because it certainly isn't fun to be around the dinner table with people who are like, you know, you know that there's just going to be they're going to say the one thing, and they're going to do it just to piss you off, to see if you can get there and like, if you can just remember what's the purpose, and how can we attract them and what can we lovingly educate, as opposed to yelling? I think it's a wonderful way for us all to be it till we see it. So Kate, thank you so much. Everyone, you know what to do. Until next time. Be It Till You See It. Lesley Logan 35:40  That's all I got for this episode of the Be It Till You See It Podcast.

What if the most powerful technology in human history is being built by people who openly admit they don't trust each other?

Welcome to Here's the Caveat, the podcast where we refuse to settle for shallow leadership. Today's episode is not just a conversation, t's a reset. We're diving into the single most important decision every leader must make: Who's first?In a world obsessed with hacks, hustle, and headlines, we're bringing it back to the foundation. Because without God first, everything else is unstable, your vision, your values, your voice. Leadership without God is leadership on borrowed time. But when God leads, clarity follows. Strength returns. And you stop striving and start aligning.If you're building a business, leading a team, or simply trying to keep it all together, this episode is your reminder that leadership starts with surrender, not control. Let's get honest, let's get real, and let's put God where He belongs... first.

How can we grow into our full potential?—living up to what we know is the best version of ourselves, actualizing our goals, and expressing our deepest purpose in a life of impact and love?Grounded in cognitive science and psychology, best-selling author, podcaster, educator and researcher Scott Barry Kaufman believes that we need to redefine our understanding of greatness and excellence to include our whole selves—our emotions, dreams, failures, and gifts—all to live a life that is fully human, fully yourself.In this conversation with Scott Barry Kaufman, we discuss:Education and formation for the whole person, not just our intellect but our bodies, emotions, and spiritualityMaslow's hierarchy of needs and the journey that leads to self-actualizationThe difference it makes to see the world through growth rather than our deficienciesWhat it means to thrive even in the midst of mental illnessThe horizontal dimensions of transcendenceAnd how to connect and align with your deepest valuesEpisode Highlights“You can be mentally ill and thriving.”“Self-actualization is bringing your whole self to the table—not just one part of you.”“Real transcendence is about becoming one with the world—not being more enlightened than others.”“People are far more likely to demand respect than to give it.”“Only you can walk the path.”Helpful Links and ResourcesVisit scottbarrykaufman.comThe Psychology Podcast with Scott Barry KaufmanChoose Growth Workbook by Kaufman & Feingold*Transcend: The New Science of Self-Actualization,* by Scott Barry KaufmanScientific American: Spiritual NarcissismThe Lights Triad Personality TestSensitive Men Rising DocumentaryMaslow's Hierarchy of Needs Reimagined – Big ThinkCorey Mascara Podcast on ValuesShow NotesOrigin Story and Human ComplexityScott shares his journey from being labeled “ungifted” with an auditory disability to becoming a cognitive scientist.A pivotal teacher asked, “What are you still doing here?”—sparking self-belief and ambition.“I was a champion for the quirky kids from the start.”His work has shifted from an early obsession with greatness to a lifelong pursuit of self-actualization.“Greatness is tied up in power and status. Self-actualization is about bringing your whole self.”Reimagining Maslow & The Sailboat MetaphorKaufman replaces the hierarchy of needs with a dynamic sailboat metaphor.The boat represents safety (security, connection, self-esteem); the sail represents growth and transcendence.“Unless we open our sail and become vulnerable to the wind, we can't move toward what matters.”Adds collective dimension: “There are other boats in the sea. Some people forget that.”Contrasts “horizontal transcendence” (connection) with “spiritual narcissism” (superiority).Mental Illness, Creativity, and ThrivingChallenges the binary between wellness and illness: “You can be mentally ill and thriving.”Cites research showing creative strengths in children of those with mental illness.“They get the goodies without the baddies—the imagination without the psychosis.”Dismantles false dichotomies in psychiatry: labels vs. lived experience.Encourages integration rather than repression of neurodivergence and emotion.Alignment, Identity, and Individual GrowthAlignment—not perfection—is the goal of self-actualization.“Self-actualization coaching isn't about judgment. It's about helping people align with their values.”Different people prioritize different values: connection, power, freedom, meaning.Encourages reflection: What roles do you cherish most? What do you say yes and no to?“Ask: What's my reason for being? What legacy do I want to leave?”Moral Psychology and MatteringDiscusses mattering and the perils of performative self-importance.“Some people matter too much… they take up so much space, there's no room for others.”Proposes a “mattering ecology” for shared dignity and contribution.On moral flexibility: “People who scream loudest often don't like themselves.”Calls for emotional regulation, reflection, and collective moral grounding in a polarized world.Relationships, Whole Love, and SpiritualityIntroduces the concept of “whole love”—where all parts of the self are seen, accepted, and growing together.“It's as simple and as hard as that.”Critiques spiritual narcissism and “dark empaths” who use others for ego validation.Real empathy requires asking: “Am I helping this person for their sake—or because I need to be needed?”“Good character doesn't need an excuse.”Practical Takeaways & Coaching ToolsDirects listeners to Choose Growth, a practical workbook co-authored with Dr. Jordan Feingold.Reflection prompts: What am I proud of? What do I wish to change? What's my legacy?Encourages clarity around values and meaningful roles.Offers self-coaching questions to foster personal development and alignment.Provides listeners with tools for discernment, purpose, and sustainable growth.Pam King's Key TakeawaysScience and spirituality work together as an integrated pursuit of truth.Intelligence is so much more than a thought-process.Self-actualization leads us well beyond the self.Life is like a sailboat: so let the wind fill your sails as you dance on the waves toward our most valued harbor—and may the tides rise for all of us.To be a whole-person means resting in a loving compassion for ourselves and others—an openness and oneness with the world.“Many people could carry you across the bridge, but only you can walk the path.”About Scott Barry KaufmanScott Barry Kaufman is a cognitive scientist, author, and humanistic psychologist exploring the depths of human potential.

Why am I here? Because I'm not here just to occupy space. I'm supposed to be doing something with this gift I've been given, called life. What do I do with it?” “We entangle our identity and our occupation… that's not you. You've got to untangle this stuff.” “The cycle of life, you're either growing or you're dying. There is no in-between.” “Those little baby steps along the way are a good thing. They don't necessarily feel great in the moment. They feel okay. It's just when we take the moment to stop, turn around, and look to see how far we've come, then we realize we have grown so much.” “Your identity is worked out over time, in community.” “Want what you already have.” “Anytime you're pointing at someone, remember — there's a thumb headed up toward heaven, three other fingers pointing back at you. So whatever you say to somebody should apply to you at least three times as much.” “Seeking certainty is a lack of faith. God is not a God of certainty. He's a God of mystery. And when you can embrace the mystery, then you're like, ‘Oh, I don't need certainty. Wherever he wants me to go, I go.” “False identity is that you're a bad dad, you're a bad husband, you're a bad community leader... the true identity is what God tells you. It's what He reveals to you.” USEFUL RESOURCES: https://whitestonecoach.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/peterjawad/ https://www.instagram.com/thepeterawad/ https://www.facebook.com/thepeterawad https://x.com/peterawad CONNECT WITH JOHN Website - https://iamjohnhulen.com    Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/johnhulen    Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/johnhulen    X - https://x.com/johnhulen    LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnhulen    YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLX_NchE8lisC4NL2GciIWA    EPISODE CREDITS Intro and Outro music provided by Jeff Scheetz - https://jeffscheetz.com/ 

244 - What do you do when life just… doesn't feel ideal? In this episode, I'm sharing a personal story from a time when things felt off—I was discouraged, exhausted, and far from the life I pictured. But what happened next? It unfolded even better than I imagined. I'm breaking down what helped me shift out of that season and how you can do the same—using what you already have. We'll explore: The truth about “stuck” seasons and why they're not what they seem A mindset shift that opens up unexpected doors How you already have what you need to align If you're in a down moment, this is your reminder: the breakthrough might be closer than it looks. —

Are you feeling trapped by your role? Are you looking for more freedom? Shannon Waller asks, “What if you shift your perspective and adopt a partnership mindset?” Challenge the traditional hierarchical thinking that stifles collaboration and results. Instead, imagine an environment where you, and everyone around you, are liberated to contribute your Unique Ability® and show up as your most evolved self, regardless of status or title. Discover how this mindset fosters collaborative teamwork, amplifies contributions, and leads to results and growth, letting you to focus on creating immense value. Download Episode Transcript Show Notes: Ditch the hierarchy. Treat yourself and others as partners, not just bosses or subordinates, for true freedom and results. Role-based thinking hinders teamwork and collaboration. Bring your most evolved version of yourself to work. Instead of your authentic self, show your “front stage” best, even internally. Value people who are different from you; they can do what you can't. Alignment on core values keeps the focus on collaboration toward shared goals. Put your ego and authority aside. Partnership means implied equality – focusing on contributing resources, skills, and effort toward shared goals, and sharing risks and rewards. The marketplace only cares if you create value; it doesn't care about your status. Know yourself and your unique contributions. Focus on the situation and the other person, not just yourself, to be a great partner. Don't be trapped by your role or title, even if it's CEO. Redesign your job to match your unique contribution for greater impact and happiness. This partnership mindset allows you to work effectively with people at any status level. The goal is to give people freedom to do what they're best at, play full out, speak up, and contribute fully. Dan Sullivan's solution when team members struggle is to bring in another “Who” that can do that piece of the work effortlessly.

  Summary: Skill-Based Job Setups, AI, Identity, and Team Dynamics 1. AI and Skill Identification in Organizations AI-Driven Talent Management: Organizations are increasingly using AI to analyze employee data, identify hidden skills, and match people to new roles or projects. This helps optimize workforce deployment and supports upskilling initiatives. Benefits: AI enables more efficient talent placement, better prediction of future skill needs, and proactive workforce development. Concerns: Reliance on AI raises privacy issues and ethical concerns about how personal data is used. It may also challenge employees' sense of identity if they feel reduced to a set of data points. 2. Professional Identity and Personal Identity at Work Identity Matters: People often define themselves by their profession (“I'm a writer,” “I'm an accountant”). This professional identity is closely tied to personal identity and self-worth. Challenges of Skill-Based Assignments: When work is assigned solely based on skills, employees may feel their professional identity is diluted or undervalued. This can impact job satisfaction and motivation. Psychological Impact: Research shows that a strong, positive professional identity is linked to higher job satisfaction and commitment. However, over-identifying with work can be unhealthy if work becomes the sole source of identity. 3. Upskilling and Employee Autonomy Upskilling Benefits: Upskilling is more efficient than hiring for specific skills and helps organizations adapt to changing needs. It also supports employee growth and retention. Autonomy is Key: Employees value the ability to choose projects and roles that align with their interests. Organizations that offer autonomy see higher engagement, innovation, and satisfaction. Whole-Person Approach: Organizations should treat employees as individuals with unique skills, interests, and aspirations, not just as interchangeable resources. 4. Personal Preferences vs. Skills Skills Alone Aren't Enough: Just because someone is skilled at a task doesn't mean they enjoy it. Personal preferences, passions, and emotional well-being are critical for motivation and job satisfaction. Alignment is Essential: Assigning work that aligns with both skills and interests leads to higher productivity and fulfillment. Ignoring preferences can result in disengagement and burnout. 5. Challenges in Skill-Based Organizations Resistance to Change: Shifting from traditional job roles to skill-based setups can be met with resistance from both employees and managers. Skill Visibility: Many organizations lack a clear understanding of the skills within their workforce, making it difficult to implement effective skill-based strategies. Legacy Practices: Outdated compensation, performance management, and promotion systems can hinder the transition to skill-based models. 6. Team Dynamics and Workplace Culture Beyond Skills: Successful teams require more than just compatible skills. Interpersonal dynamics, shared values, and a positive culture are essential for collaboration and productivity. Risk of Dysfunction: Focusing only on skills can lead to dysfunctional teams and toxic work environments if team members don't work well together. Inclusive Environments: Organizations that consider both skills and team dynamics are more likely to create inclusive, positive workplaces where employees thrive. Conclusion Skill-based job setups and upskilling offer significant advantages for organizations, including better talent placement, higher retention, and greater agility. However, these benefits can only be fully realized if organizations also consider the importance of professional identity, employee autonomy, personal preferences, and team dynamics. By balancing skill optimization with a holistic understanding of employees as individuals, organizations can create healthier, more productive workplaces where both people and businesses thrive.

This MTM Minute is powered by Move to Millions Live 2025 After Glow The MTM Minute is a quick dose of inspiration with a powerful affirmation based on our weekly full-length episode.    "You can't scale to millions if your soul is bankrupt—alignment isn't optional, it's the access point to overflow." In this week's full-length episode of the Move to Millions Podcast, Soul Leadership Series Part 1: Strategy Isn't Enough, we start a conversation that will be a defining moment on your move to millions. If you've been doing all the things—funnels, events, strategies—and you're still not making the move to millions, this episode is your turning point. In this soul-stirring conversation, Dr. Darnyelle Jervey Harmon reveals why strategy alone will never sustain seven-figure success. You'll learn how soul alignment, obedience, and embodiment are the true power sources for overflow. We're not here to grind our way to greatness—we're here to lead with Spirit, scale with soul, and anchor into the energetic capacity required to build a business that funds your life and your legacy. If you're ready to do the deep internal work that fuels external abundance, this episode is your divine invitation. This episode will inspire you to lead from your soul, not just your strategy. It will remind you that the most sustainable success flows from alignment, obedience, and energetic integrity. You'll be challenged to heal, surrender, and embody the CEO your next level requires—because your millions are waiting on the version of you that's finally whole. This week's 7 Figure CEO Affirmation is My soul work is the source and primary strategy for my seven-figure success. I understand that the call on my life cannot be sustained by hustle alone—I must be aligned, obedient, and anchored in my divine assignment. I release the urge to perform and instead choose to embody the millionaire version of me who leads with wholeness, integrity, and trust. Every decision I make is guided by purpose, not pressure. My nervous system is regulated, my energy is calibrated, and my spirit is surrendered. I know that when my soul is cared for, my business thrives, my money multiplies, and my legacy expands without limitation. Here are three actionable tips to anchor in this week's affirmation Audit your business and body: Ask yourself if your calendar and your health reflect your millionaire goals—and start there. Trust Your Existing Strategy: Since your 7 figures will require more than a strategy, trust that the one you have been using will work once you are in alignment mind, body and soul. Align before you act: Before executing another strategy, check if your soul is in agreement. Alignment accelerates results. Affirm with me: My soul work is the source and primary strategy for my seven-figure success. I understand that the call on my life cannot be sustained by hustle alone—I must be aligned, obedient, and anchored in my divine assignment. I release the urge to perform and instead choose to embody the millionaire version of me who leads with wholeness, integrity, and trust. Every decision I make is guided by purpose, not pressure. My nervous system is regulated, my energy is calibrated, and my spirit is surrendered. I know that when my soul is cared for, my business thrives, my money multiplies, and my legacy expands without limitation. And this week's journal prompts are: I am becoming the kind of CEO who… The soul work I've been avoiding looks like… I feel most aligned with my business when… And Your Prayer Of The Week: Heavenly Father, We come before You with gratitude for the vision You've placed inside of us. As we build businesses that fund our lives and legacies, help us to prioritize our souls. May we remember that strategy without soul is empty, and that You desire us to prosper and be in good health as our souls prosper. Help us release the need to hustle and grind. Infuse us with divine discernment, deep alignment, and the courage to lead with conviction. Let our soul work match our strategy, and our spiritual obedience fuel our overflow. In Your name, I pray. And So it Is. Amen.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik sits down with Nisha Patel, LPC—licensed professional counselor, speaker, and founder of The Nisha. Together, they explore the deeper layers of addiction recovery, mindfulness, and what it truly means to live in alignment. Nisha shares her personal journey of 16+ years of sobriety, blending science and spirituality through tools like DBT, brainspotting, hypnotherapy, and Reiki. This honest conversation unpacks how healing is more than stopping behaviors—it's reconnecting with core values, purpose, and self. Whether you're navigating addiction, burnout, or simply feeling disconnected, this episode offers actionable insights on reclaiming your life. About the Guest:Nisha Patel, LPC, is a therapist, sovereignty expert, and speaker with over 16 years of sobriety. She empowers individuals to heal, align with their values, and create a meaningful life using a unique mix of evidence-based therapy and holistic healing practices. Key Takeaways: Addiction recovery isn't just about stopping; it's about replacing, healing, and aligning with your core values. Mindfulness and meditation start small—sometimes with just one quiet minute. True alignment means living in integrity with your values, not society's expectations. Healing work requires discipline—but in the right direction, with the right tools. “There's no one-size-fits-all path to healing—what works for others might not work for you.”   Connect with Nisha:Instagram: @nishapatelcoachingWebsite: https://thenishe.com/ Email: nisha@nishatheniche.com   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

Life is a sacred journey, and every moment offers a chance for deeper love, wisdom, and growth. In this episode, I'm joined by Stephanie James, a psychotherapist, author, and transformation guide. We explore the powerful connection between life, death, and the eternal nature of our souls. Stephanie takes us through her book Your Big Fat Juicy Life and Everything After, where she shares how embracing the mysteries of death can actually bring us closer to living fully. Through stories of spiritual awakenings and the ongoing guidance of loved ones from the other side, we dive into the power of being present and open to the sacred flow of life. This conversation is all about embracing each moment, finding peace in uncertainty, and recognizing the miracles that are always around us.

Ever feel like no matter how hard you try, you're still not good enough? Like you're outrunning a wolf that lives inside you, always whispering, “You've got more to prove”. But what if fear isn't your enemy? What if it's actually pointing you toward your purpose? In this deeply transformative conversation with bestselling author Mary Marantz, we explore how the experiences that once made us feel underestimated—and the relentless drive to overachieve—can keep us stuck in cycles of perfectionism, people-pleasing, and fear-fueled productivity.  Mary and I unpack the myths of not-enoughness, talk about the parts of ourselves that try to protect us from failure, and offer a new path forward: one where your gifts and your story become your superpowers. Get ready to look at fear differently, reclaim your confidence, and learn to move forward—not from a place of proving, but from a place of purpose.

Most marketers think attribution is the answer to everything, but Jay Schwedelson and Daniel Murray take it apart with stories about chasing TikTok-famous restaurants, tracking referrals that don't show up in dashboards, and why "where did you hear about us?" is still the secret weapon. Turns out, the biggest marketing fights aren't about numbers—they're about team alignment. Plus, you'll get their real-life hacks for finding hidden gem restaurants (spoiler: Reddit and TikTok win).Best Moments:(00:56) Daniel finally scores a cool invite from a Miami restaurant thanks to his newsletter(02:31) Attribution is a compass, not a map—most marketers get lost by taking it too literally(03:21) Jay explains why last-touch attribution is nonsense, especially for anything more expensive than a phone case(05:39) Why obsessing over Facebook dashboard numbers makes marketers miss the real sales cycle(06:54) Jay's agency rips out their website for a single “book a call” page—here's what happened(08:42) Alignment, not attribution, is where the real fights (and fixes) happen between sales, marketing, and finance(09:25) The top companies put marketing leadership on actual sales calls—spreadsheets aren't enough(10:18) How “where did you hear about us?” and AI-powered call analysis catch what dashboards miss(10:37) The surprisingly non-glamorous way Daniel finds new restaurants (hint: TikTok, Reddit, and a lot of menu stalking)Go follow The Marketing Millennials podcast, but also tune in to this series—Bathroom Break—for quick marketing tips and more.
