Send us a textWhen I stop and look at the state of gender - I, and all that identify as women - have LOTS to get mad about. Inequality in general, inability to drive a car in some countries, inability to own or inherit land in others, the paycheck gap in the US, being invisible when it comes to drug trials and the user experience in general up until recently (which is why airplane seats hurt our necks) etc, etc.But, today is not about gender - it is a journey into the intersection between divine feminine and divine masculine. It involves undoing old programming, parenting, teachings, that left no space for the two sets of being, not to mention the place where they intersect, collide, comingle. Let's get into it.Divine Fem and Divine Masc 101Divine Feminine and Divine Masculine were explained to me this way and I hope it resonates with you as well.Think of the Divine Feminine as the waters of a grand river; flowing; life-giving; dynamic; creating its own motion and course. Now think of the Divine Masculine as the riverbank; the steep sides and bottom that give the river structure, dimension, directing the flow, it holds in this precious resource, protecting the vibrant waters. Yin and yang symbols embody dualism - and that includes the divine feminine and divine masculine. Think of that black and white symbol for a second. The black swoop has a dash of white in its center, and the white swoop contains a bit of black. Together they bring balance, harmony, respect. They are sound, together a perfect whole.

Send us a textWhen it comes to the shed industry, the relationship between manufacturers and dealers can make or break a business. Rami joins Shannon to dive deep into the often unspoken tensions and opportunities that exist in these critical partnerships.The conversation tackles head-on the reality that not all dealers approach their shed business with the same level of commitment. Some make it their primary income source, investing heavily in growth, while others view it as supplemental income alongside other ventures. As Rami points out, "Both scenarios can work well if expectations are clearly established on both sides."Commission structures emerge as a major pain point for many dealers. At just 10% commission, even those selling a million dollars annually struggle to reinvest in marketing and growth. "That 10% needs to adjust," Rami asserts, recommending dealers negotiate higher rates or diversify with complementary products like carports that can create multiple revenue streams from the same customer.Perhaps the most powerful segment explores the 80/20 rule in dealer networks, where typically 80% of business comes from just 20% of dealers. This reality forces tough decisions about resource allocation and relationship management. "Facts are unwavering and immovable," Rami states bluntly, "If you factually are not doing your job, I will factually find someone who will."The digital transformation of retail receives special attention, with both hosts emphasizing that relying solely on drive-by traffic is no longer viable. "It's not 1996 anymore," Rami reminds listeners, noting that even basic websites have become affordable and accessible for businesses of all sizes.Whether you're a manufacturer looking to optimize your dealer network or a dealer seeking to strengthen your position and profitability, this episode delivers actionable insights that could transform your approach to the shed business.

Fariba Bogzaran is an artist, scientist and pioneer of dream studies. Between 1986 and 1989 she conducted scientific studies on lucid dreams at the Lucidity Institute at the Stanford Sleep Laboratory.Fariba mixes psychology, art, contemplative practices, shamanism, Taoism, and more. Her artwork is inspired by her deep connection with nature and her collaboration with the hypnagogic and lucid dreaming states of consciousness. She coined the term Lucid Art, which views art as an epistemology, or a way of knowing.Fariba is co-author of Integral Dreaming and Extraordinary Dreams and How to Work with Them. Our far reaching conversation explores themes in those books, including precognitive dreams, telepathic dreams, and mutual dreams. We dive deep into lucid dreams, including their multi-dimensionality and what Fariba calls hyperspace lucidity.We also look at how dreams inform déja vú, why physicists resonate with lucid art, experiences of light, voidness, and the non-dual, and why knowledge and realisations from dreams must translate to lucid waking.

Send us a textPassion for an industry can transform a job into a calling. That's exactly what happened to Rami, who describes himself as approaching the "healthy version of obsessive" when it comes to the shed and outdoor structure business. After 14 years immersed in everything from retail sales to manufacturing, he's developed insights that can benefit anyone in the industry.What starts as a conversation about Rami's journey quickly evolves into a masterclass on the differences between selling traditional wooden sheds versus steel structures. While shed customers might make decisions quickly, steel structure buyers—especially those investing in larger 30x40 or 40x60 buildings—often engage in a more methodical process. They've frequently been planning and saving for these purchases for years. This requires salespeople to demonstrate deeper product knowledge and patience.The geographical reach of competition creates another fascinating dynamic. While shed dealers typically compete within a 30-50 mile radius, steel structure competition can span 500 miles or more. With similar pricing across competitors, success hinges on expertise and eliminating friction from the buying process rather than simply offering the lowest price.Perhaps most valuable is Rami's advice on inventory strategy. While having physical buildings on-site creates immediate sales opportunities, the financial burden of extensive inventory has pushed many dealers toward built-to-order models. Thankfully, 3D configurators arrived just in time, allowing customers to visualize custom buildings even without physical inventory present.For anyone selling sheds or steel structures, Rami's perspective on honest communication resonates deeply. Saying "I don't know, but I'll find out" builds more trust than bluffing, and sometimes saying "no" helps customers overcome analysis by paralysis better than always saying "yes."Ready to transform your approach to shed and steel structure sales? Listen now to gain insights from someone who's mastered both sides of this specialized industry.For more information or to know more about the Shed Geek Podcast visit us at our website.Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube at the handle @shedgeekpodcast.To be a guest on the Shed Geek Podcast visit our website and fill out the "Contact Us" form.To suggest show topics or ask questions you want answered email us at info@shedgeek.com.This episodes Sponsors:Studio Sponsor: Union Grove LumberDigital Shed BuilderRealwork LabsiFAB LLCNewFound SolutionsSolar Blaster

In this episode of the Venture Capital Podcast, hosts Jon Bradshaw and Peter Harris delve into the complex world of valuations, exploring both the theoretical foundations and the practical realities faced by entrepreneurs and venture capitalists. Peter begins by discussing the fundamental principles of valuation, using the metaphor of a "Golden Goose" to illustrate how discounted cash flow models are used to estimate a company's worth based on future cash flows.The conversation shifts to the venture capital landscape, where Peter notes that traditional valuation methods often don't apply due to the high-risk nature of early-stage startups. He emphasizes that while these models provide a theoretical framework, the actual process of valuation in venture capital is heavily influenced by negotiation and market dynamics.Jon counters with a more pragmatic view, suggesting that valuations are often inflated and less relevant than other terms in a deal. He shares examples of companies being valued at significantly higher amounts than their true worth, highlighting how VCs may use these valuations to secure favorable terms.Throughout the episode, the hosts discuss how the market has evolved, with valuations increasing dramatically over the past decade. They reflect on past deals, noting that what was once considered acceptable is now viewed as predatory, illustrating the shift in market norms and expectations.The conversation concludes with insights into the challenges of raising capital, emphasizing that sophisticated entrepreneurs are better equipped to navigate complex deals and avoid unfavorable terms. Overall, this episode provides a nuanced exploration of valuations from both the VC and founder's perspective, offering valuable insights into the art and science of negotiating value in the venture capital world.Follow the PodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/venturecapitalfm/Twitter: https://twitter.com/vcpodcastfmLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/venturecapitalfm/Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7BQimY8NJ6cr617lqtRr7N?si=ftylo2qHQiCgmT9dfloD_g&nd=1&dlsi=7b868f1b72094351Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/venture-capital/id1575351789Website: https://www.venturecapital.fm/Follow Jon BradshawLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mrbradshaw/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mrjonbradshaw/Twitter: https://twitter.com/mrjonbradshawFollow Peter HarrisLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/peterharris1Twitter: https://twitter.com/thevcstudentInstagram: https://instagram.com/shodanpeteYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@peterharris2812
This episode is brought to you by Oberle Risk Strategies: Insurance Broker and Insurance Due Diligence Provider for Search Funds and Other Small-to-Medium-Sized Businesses *This episode is brought to you by Boulay, the industry standard for Quality of Earnings, tax, and audit services, serving search fund entrepreneurs for 20+ years*One of the most common investment theses among acquisition entrepreneurs revolves around building an internal sales function where no such function has existed in the past. While this makes intuitive sense on the surface, just how easy is it to build a sales team from scratch? Do you hire the leader first, or do you hire an individual contributor first? Does it matter if your sales reps have experience in your particular industry? How do you evaluate the success of new hires if you have a long sales cycle? How do you change an incentive compensation plan in the middle of a fiscal year? Should lead generation be outsourced or brought in-house? How involved should a SMB CEO be in sales? These are just some of the many questions that we explore with my guest this week, Dave Prusinksi. Dave is the Chief Revenue Officer at SafeAI, a hyper-growth silicon valley company in the autonomous vehicle space. Prior to his current role, Dave spent 10 years as the Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing at FleetComplete, a technology provider to fleet-owning businesses around the world. Under Dave's leadership, FleetComplete grew from $6M ARR to $150M in total revenue, achieving an average 50% revenue CAGR for 9 of his 10 years. Dave played an integral role in the acquisition of 6 companies, leading the sales and marketing due diligence processes, and ultimately integrating the operations of the acquired businesses into that of FleetComplete. Dave was also a central member of the deal team helping to lead FleetComplete through multiple investment and acquisition rounds themselves, managing the sales & marketing due diligence processes in each instance. Dave has served as a Revenue Coach to several SMBs, working directly with their CEOs and Heads of Sales to optimize their sales and revenue generation processes. All of the companies with whom Dave has worked thus far have now exited with great success.

That they're likable in one way, shape, or form, generally likable and they are consistent. That they have a frequently and predictable drumbeat of presence that people can create what we call parasocial relationships.

Hey thereWelcome to the first conscient roundtable conversation recorded on Saturday March 1, 2025 in Tiohtià:ke (also known as Montreal). This episode features local artists, activists and cultural workers Alyssa Scott, Devon Hardy, Jimmy Ung, Katrine Claassens, Sophie Weider, Sébastian Méric de Bellefon and myself (I'm actually from Ottawa) talking about our passions, fears and dreams and engaging in some playful banter, though, I have to say, this group had some pretty serious issues on their minds.Do you know any art and science jokes? Our conversation lasted 91 minutes and is presented here without any edits but before running the tape, so to speak, I want to share 4 of my favorite excerpts from this roundtable to whet your appetite and set the table for the feast of words you are about to hear.First we talked a lot about artists and scientist during this session, for example, Sophie Weider observed that : What I think is interesting about making art about a problem that I guess came out through science because it brings in the audience and prompts the audience to reflect on themselves as part of this problem or as part of this innovation or whatever it is. I think that that brings in the identity piece that you were talking about, Jimmy, where it's like even just consuming art is a way of discovering yourself and your identity. But then art that asks you to reflect, or perhaps create, art that might be engaging or community engaged art does that extra step of now that you've reflected and seen, okay, wait, I'm part of something bigger than myself, what do I have to say about it or what do I have to do about it.Shortly after, Jimmy Ung, who was our host that day along with his wife Hannah, responded:And we're thinking about this art-science relation. And to me, it's always felt clear to me that what art can do for science is to democratize science. It's to make it more accessible. But then what I'm curious is about, about is what can science do for the arts? And I'm kind of stuck there in my own mind, like, what is it that science can do for artists? And I kind of often approach life through three pillars of beauty, which is art, goodness, which is morality and ethics, and then truth, which is the role of science, I think. And I always felt that the answer is often that the third one is always the mediator. So when trying to find how to better find that balance between art and science, then we should look to morality and ethics. And when we try to find the balance between what's good and what's true, then it's the role of art to be the mediator, and so on and so forth.And you'll hear at the very end, and I hope you're able to stay until the end. Sophie Weider again talked about the end of the world as we know it, which is something that's always on my mind. It's a topic that I often explore in this podcast, but I love Sophie's take on it. So here it is.Just to quickly respond to your comment about despair of the world as we know it. Obviously there is a lot of science and yeah, information about the direction the world is heading and, and I think we can assume that things will go badly before they're again good. But I would like to say that like the end of the world as we know it is not necessarily a bad thing. We all know that there are huge systemic problems that are causing the challenges we're facing today. And those things need to be solved, and we need to have a fundamental shift to see them solved. Whether that will happen or whether human race will just fizzle out, who knows? But I'd like to think that change will happen and that it is possible, at least possible that it could be positive in some way, at least, maybe at the end of the day, even if a lot of hardship has to come before then. I don't know if that's hopeful or just sad, but that's my take.And a few seconds later, Katrine Claassens, one of our guests, talked about artists as midwives:Maybe just to add to what you said about thinking of artists as midwives, we are not death doulas (providing hospice care) but rather as midwives for another world. Katrine later refers to an artwork in California : https://liztoohey-wiese.com/forced-into-a-great-and-difficult-transformationSo, you get the idea. You'll hear these four excerpts in context in a few minutes but i like the way they set us in the mood to listen. I want to thank the brave participants of this first roundtable session for their generosity, courage and wisdom. They are now on the public record as cool and visionary people. If listeners want to know more about these conscient roundtables – why I created them or background on brave new waves and David Bohm's dialogue work - please read or listen to my posting on my a calm presence called conscient roundtables. And if you want to comment on what you hear please go to conscient.ca and use any of the conscient podcast social media to share your thoughts. If you like what you hear then I invite you to share it within your networks and-or give conscient podcast a review on apple podcasts. All of this helps to get these conversations to circulate and create a bit of buzz about the issues we care about and that merit more public conversations. My email is claude@conscient.caSo please relax and enjoy this roundtable on art and science and more.Note: because of the length and informal nature of this roundtable episode I have not generated a transcription beyond the four quotes above. *END NOTES FOR ALL EPISODESHey conscient listeners, I've been producing the conscient podcast as a learning and unlearning journey since May 2020 on un-ceded Anishinaabe Algonquin territory (Ottawa).

What to listen for:Training your dog to adhere to your criteria consistently is not a cut-and-dry process. It's one of the trickiest balancing acts in dog training: when to hold the line and when to make adjustments within behavior chains.“Consistency is not about perfection, but predictability.”Dog handling, whether for sport or operational detection, is both an art and a science–which means embracing flexibility and precision in equal measure. Our hosts, Robin Greubel, Stacy Barnett, and Crystal Wing outline their best strategies for deciding on your dog's foundational behaviors according to their respective strengths, and knowing when to make tweaks as you build upon them.“Your criteria is a conversation, not a contract.”Our hosts break down the three keys to maintaining a complex behavior chain in various scenarios: clarity, consistency, and flexibility. By using these three as your anchor points as a handler, you'll set yourself and your dog up for success in any scenario.“Temporary adjustment is not the same as a permanent compromise.”The Dames of Detection also look into tailoring techniques to individual dogs and handlers. Because a one-size-fits-all approach simply doesn't work, our hosts stress the importance of balancing fun with the need to address potential long-term behavior issues.By understanding each dog's personality and recognizing which stimuli fail to align with their intended behaviors early on, you can quickly nip problems in the bud and reinforce behavior chains more efficiently than before!Key Topics:What is Being Judged?

Did you know that the right questions in these meetings can be the key to unlocking your employees' potential? Steven takes us on a deep dive into the crucial ways to approach one-on-one conversations, from asking powerful questions to the subtle art of listening that can fuel positive change. With the shift to remote work, he also touches on how managers can adapt their strategies to maintain that crucial human connection across the digital divide.
