How have you handled the changes in your life? Peter Pitts said, “There is this unspoken magic that occurs. It all boils down to people. It's just people meeting people meeting people”.

Today, I have the pleasure of speaking with Robert Raymond, First Vice President and Risk Strategist at HUB Private Client, a privately held personal insurance brokerage firm serving ultra-high-net-worth clients. Bob is an award-winning expert in multigenerational risk management, working with families, their advisory teams, and key stakeholders to help eliminate balance sheet exposure to negative liquidity and other preventable risks. Bob currently serves as a member of HUB's National Private Client Council and Chair of its Technology Sub-Committee. Prior to joining HUB, he served as Assistant Vice President with Marsh Private Client Services, where he advised international family offices. Throughout his career, Bob has combined deep expertise in risk management with a passion for helping families take a proactive approach to protecting their wealth, assets, and legacy. Bob introduces the concept of being "left of loss," a risk management philosophy that encourages families to anticipate and address risks before they become costly problems. He explains why proactive planning is often more effective than reactive solutions and outlines how families can build a culture of preparedness across their enterprises and households. A key theme of our conversation is the broad spectrum of risk management strategies available to families and family offices. Bob discusses why insurance is only one component of a comprehensive risk framework and explores the role of advisory services, self-insurance strategies, governance practices, and other tools that can help families protect both financial and non-financial assets. Bob also shares practical guidance on managing the increasingly complex risks facing today's families, including property, liability, and cybersecurity concerns. He highlights actionable tools, checklists, and resources that families and their family offices can utilize to strengthen their risk management programs and improve resilience in an evolving environment. Enjoy this insightful conversation with a leading risk management strategist on how families can embrace a proactive mindset, expand their risk management toolkit, and better protect their assets and legacy for generations to come.

Jesus' parable of the talents teaches His people how to live faithfully now awaiting His return. God gives to His children according to their ability. Because His gifts come from His love, the proper response is to put those gifts to work in faithfulness to God, knowing that He is our loving Master whose gifts always bear fruit. The third servant in the parable illustrates the faithlessness of inaction. This servant's wickedness is revealed in his wrong faith toward his master. Because this servant does not know his master truly, he simply buries the master's property. However, when we trust in God as the loving Father He truly is, we steward His gifts faithfully now, awaiting His commendation on the Last Day. Rev. Matt Wietfeldt, Assistant Vice President of Admissions at Concordia Theological Seminary in Ft. Wayne, IN, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Matthew 25:14-30. “The Reign of Heaven Stands Near” is a series on Sharper Iron that studies the Gospel according to St. Matthew. The first evangelist proclaims that God has fulfilled His Old Testament promises by sending Jesus to bring the reign of the heavens among us. As the Son of David, Jesus is the gracious King we need, and as the Son of Abraham, Jesus is the blessing to all the families of the earth. Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Pastor Appel serves at Faith Lutheran Church in Godfrey, IL.

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Watch Full Video Episode What happens when a customer needs a $2,000 repair but doesn't have the cash available today? That moment can determine whether the vehicle gets repaired, the customer delays a critical service, or they take their business somewhere else. For automotive shops, offering flexible payment options can be more than a convenience. It can be a powerful tool for helping customers say yes to the work their vehicles need. Kwane Stokes, Assistant Vice President and Relationship Manager in the automotive division at Synchrony, explains how the program can help shops remove financial barriers, increase repair opportunities, and create another reason for customers to return. Kwane also addresses why many shops still aren't offering financing and how the biggest obstacle may simply be the assumptions advisors make about a customer's ability or willingness to pay. What You'll Learn Why financing should be presented as a payment option, not something an advisor decides a customer needs.How the program's average first and repeat purchase amounts demonstrate the potential impact on average repair order (ARO).Why assuming a customer can't qualify for credit can cause shops to lose needed repair work.How monthly promotional offers can give shops another reason to communicate with their customers.How advisor incentives and simple training can encourage more consistent presentation of financing.What the upcoming "waterfall" financing model could mean for customers who aren't approved through the primary credit program. The biggest opportunity may not be finding more customers. It may be giving the customers already sitting at your counter more ways to say yes. The key is removing the assumption that you know what a customer can or cannot afford. Present the options, explain them clearly, and let the customer decide what works for their financial situation. For a shop, financing isn't simply about collecting payment. It's another tool for helping customers get the repairs they need while protecting the relationship and keeping the work in your shop.

When Herod the tetrarch hears the miracles of Jesus, Herod believes John has been raised from the dead. The Evangelist recounts the story of how John was martyred, going back to his imprisonment for preaching God's Word against Herod's adultery. Although Herod has authority, everyone around him exercises power over him, from Herodias to Herodias' daughter to the crowds. Although Herod cowardly puts John to death, the Word of God that John preached endures forever. John's death points forward to Christ's death, and Christ's resurrection promises John's resurrection.

In this episode, Mark Jones sits down with Emmanuel Cruz, Assistant Vice President of Digital Marketing at Philippine Airlines, to explore how the 85-year-old airline is transforming for a digital-first future. Cruz paints a fascinating picture of the Philippines' social landscape, where Facebook, Instagram and TikTok aren't just channels, they're part of everyday life, shaping how people discover, connect and buy. He shares how Philippine Airlines has shifted to a platform-first strategy, creating different content for different audiences: Facebook for the mass market, Instagram for premium travellers, and TikTok for younger consumers. The conversation reveals how social media is collapsing the traditional marketing funnel, with awareness, consideration and conversion increasingly happening in the same place. Drawing parallels to the kind of cultural fandom that powers global stars like Bad Bunny, Cruz explains why brands today need to participate in culture, not just advertising. He also discusses AI-generated content, personalisation, viral campaigns, and the airline's award-winning safety video, which tapped into Filipino culture to drive remarkable engagement. It's a masterclass in how brands can stay relevant by combining heritage, technology and social-first storytelling in an AI-powered world.

What does the data tell us about the real path to becoming an architect, and how is NCARB shifting its model to build a more adaptable, modular roadmap for future candidates?In this episode of Practice Disrupted, host Evelyn Lee breaks down the 15th edition of the NCARB by the Numbers report. She is joined by Jenny Kawecki, who leads data analytics and research at NCARB, and Gabriella Bermea, a licensed architect and NCARB volunteer who chaired the Experience Committee. Together, they explore the shifting dynamics of the architectural pipeline, unpacking why the median time to licensure has dropped to 12.3 years and what these statistics mean for the future of the profession.Jenny provides an insider's view of how NCARB uses this annual data report to track attrition points and actively improve its programs. She highlights major programmatic changes driven by historical data trends, such as retiring the rolling clock and revamping the Architectural Experience Program (AXP) reporting policy to give thousands of candidates their experience credits back. Gabriella adds an on-the-ground perspective, explaining how challenging past assumptions about rigid timelines helps eliminate systemic barriers and re-engages candidates who have stepped away from the path.The conversation also digs deeply into NCARB's massive "Pathways to Practice" initiative, a multi-year effort to pivot away from a single, rigid route toward a highly modular, competency-based framework. They address critical pipeline pinch points, including firm culture support during the AXP and the stark demographic pass-rate disparities within the Architect Registration Examination (ARE)."Instead of pushing everyone through the same path, how can that path meet the needs of the individual? How can it be customizable almost to the candidate so that it aligns with your background, your career path, your educational path, your social path. We want there to be a licensure path that exists for you." - Jenny KaweckiFinally, they look forward to how a more flexible, customizable licensure path can help mitigate the steep financial burdens of higher education and foster a significantly more diverse, representative body of architects.Guests:Jenny Kawecki is NCARB's Assistant Vice President of Data, Analytics, and Research, where she leads a team that analyzes industry trends and oversees publications like NCARB by the Numbers and Baseline on Belonging. Before joining NCARB in 2016, she wrote for Barnes & Noble and SparkNotes, and she holds a degree in Media, Culture, and the Arts from The King's College.Gabriella Bermea, AIA, is a Senior Associate and Architect at Perkins Eastman with more than eight years of experience in educational design, stakeholder engagement, and community-focused solutions. A fifth-generation Tejana, she is a passionate advocate for educational equity and community empowerment and currently serves as Chair of NCARB's Experience Committee.This episode is especially for you if:✅You want to know why the median time to licensure dropped and how policy changes like eliminating the rolling clock shifted the needle.✅You are curious about NCARB's "Pathways to Practice" initiative and how a modular, competency-based framework will offer diverse alternatives to the traditional degree path.✅ You want to explore the primary pinch points in the licensure pipeline, from firm culture barriers during the AXP to pass-rate disparities within the ARE.✅You want to learn how the revised AXP reporting requirements allow candidates to receive 100% credit for hours up to a year and 75% credit indefinitely.✅You are interested in how scholarship programs through NOMA chapters and state boards are helping candidates facing financial and institutional adversities stay on the path.What have you done to take action lately?

A deal to end the U.S.-Iran war is constantly talked up, but has yet to materialize. Meanwhile, market reaction doesn't seem to match “the biggest physical energy disruption in history”, as Helima Croft, Global Head of Commodity Strategy, describes it. At RBC's Global Energy, Power and Infrastructure Conference, Helima considers the prospects for a deal and what it would take to restore global oil flows once the Strait of Hormuz reopens.Key Points• Strong inventories and stockpile releases have so far contained oil prices despite the ongoing Iran conflict.• The market continues to respond to repeated signals of an imminent end to the war.• Restoring normal levels of oil flow after the Strait of Hormuz is reopened may take months.• Issues over Iran's nuclear program and sanctions relief will be obstacles to a lasting deal.Introductions [00:05]John Soughan, Assistant Vice President of Global Commodity Strategy and MENA Research, introduces Helima Croft, Global Head of Commodity Strategy, in a session at RBC's Energy, Power, and Infrastructure Conference.Stockpiles limit disruption impact [00:25]The U.S.-Iran war has created history's biggest physical energy supply disruption. So far, robust inventories and stockpile releases have provided a buffer, but shortages will become more evident in coming weeks.Peace agreement fails to emerge [03:41]The White House has repeatedly suggested a resolution is imminent. Each time the market responds with a sell-off. But a deal has yet to materialize. The IRGC controls shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and is not anxious to reach an agreement.Nuclear issues will impede deal [05:56]Nuclear capabilities and sanctions relief will be obstacles to any lasting deal. Even when the Strait of Hormuz is reopened, oil flows will be significantly lower than before the war began, because shippers and insurers will be reluctant to use it.Oil flows will take months to restore [09:41]The CEO of ADNOC has indicated it would take four months after reopening to return to 80% of pre-war oil flows.
Private credit has hit a speed bump in the US, where the market is rapidly pivoting from growth to stricter risk discipline. At our flagship “Credit Frontiers” event, we sat down with Moody's leaders to discuss what's behind these “bad vibes” about private credit and what they're hearing from market participants about the trajectory of the asset class.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, we are joined by Admiral William O. Studeman, United States Navy, retired, and his wife Diane, former Pan Am stewardess and one of the most gracious ambassadors the airline ever had.Their connection to Pan Am runs deeper than most. Diane grew up in Milford-on-Sea in Hampshire, England. The navy and aviation were not just a backdrop to her childhood but its very fabric. She joined Pan Am as a stewardess in the early 1960s, at what many would argue was the cultural apex of the Jet Age, when the uniform was a statement and the Clipper was a promise of something larger than the ordinary.Bill is, in the truest sense, a Pan Am kid. His father, Oliver J. Studeman, joined Pan Am's Western Division at Brownsville, Texas in 1933, flying mail-carrying tri-motored Fokkers from Texas through Mexico to Panama and across the north coast of South America. He was known professionally as O.J. and had the nickname of "Stude" by his friends and colleagues. Over four decades, O.J. rose from Chief Pilot of the Western Division to Operations Manager of the Alaska, Pacific, and Latin American divisions, to Assistant Vice President of Pan Am's Guided Missile Range Division at Cape Canaveral, to Vice President of the Metropolitan Air Facilities Division at Teterboro, New Jersey, where he retired in 1972. His uncle, on his mother's side, also worked for the airline. Bill was born in Brownsville in January 1940. Pan Am, for him, was not just a company. It was a family inheritance.Bill and Diane met in the summer of 1962 at London's Heathrow Airport, where Bill was working the Pan Am ticket counter and Diane was working the TWA desk. She joined Pan Am shortly after. He entered Officer Candidate School in 1963 and spent the next 32 years in the United States Navy as a naval intelligence officer. At his Senate confirmation hearing, Senator Frank Murkowski said Bill had "mastered, as few others have, the intricate and arcane world of signals intelligence." He served as Director of Naval Intelligence, Director of the National Security Agency, and Deputy Director of Central at CIA, twice serving as its acting director of the agency across two presidential administrations. Diane hung up her wings to become a Navy wife and mother. They settled eventually in Annapolis.Before the interview, this episode explores three places that rarely appear in the standard Pan Am narrative: Brownsville, Texas, where the airline learned to fly in the clouds and where O.J. "Stude" Studeman first fell in love with the sky; Treasure Island in San Francisco Bay, the man-made island built to launch the Boeing B-314 Flying Boats toward Asia, whose art deco terminal still stands today; and Teterboro Airport in New Jersey, the oldest operating commercial airport in the New York metropolitan area, and the place where O.J. Studeman's remarkable Pan Am career came to a close.Bill and Diane's son, Rear Admiral Mike Studeman (ret.), recently published a book on leadership called Might of the Chain: Forging Leaders of Iron Integrity now available in bookstores and as an audiobook. This is Episode 65 of The Pan Am Podcast, and the final full episode with Tom Betti as host in the history and humanities format that has defined this program since its first season. Episode 66, the season finale and Tom's final episode, will be a five-year retrospective with special guests.Support the showVisit Us for more Pan Am History!

David praises the LORD as his refuge and rescuer, for the LORD alone grants victory to His king and His people. This is no small wonder, that the LORD would have such regard for finite humanity, yet because of this wonder, David is bold to cry out for the LORD to come down and combat the lies of the devil with the truth of His Word. The people of God respond with a song of praise, knowing that their true peace is found when the LORD reigns as King. Truly, those people are blessed who have David's Son and David's Lord, Jesus Christ, as their King! Rev.

Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners.

What comes next for sustainable finance debt markets? The energy transition's momentum has shifted towards more pragmatic rationales, including energy security, sovereignty and critical supply chain resilience. In this episode, we discuss why, despite headwinds arising from global trade tensions, Asia remains a contributing force for the “pragmatic transition”, the favorable conditions supporting renewable investment, as well as the opportunities for both the public and private sectors.

Inspired by stories of the nurses who cared for her cousin, who traveled to the US from the Bahamas for open-heart surgery, Marguerite Rowell, MSN, MSM/HM, MBA, ONC, SCRN, NEA-BC, decided in the eighth grade that she wanted to be a nurse. She came to the United States, joined Baptist Health South Florida, and spent nearly 25 years advancing from staff nurse to charge nurse, to manager, to director, to Assistant Vice President of Nursing, where she helped open the Miami Cancer Institute and served as interim Chief Nursing Officer. But throughout every promotion, one problem never left her: healthcare finance. Nurse leaders are handed multi-million-dollar budgets and a binder from a training session, and then immediately sent back to the floor, where the commitment to patients and staff takes center stage. So, she built NurseMath: a mobile app that puts the financial calculations nurse leaders need, ROI, contribution margin, proforma, staffing ratios, right in their pocket, wherever they are. Marguerite makes the case that nurses are multi-dimensional creators at the helm of the innovations that will transform healthcare.

The private credit market has morphed into a powerhouse, deriving its allure from low volatility, stable and high predictable returns. But less than a year after the so-called “golden age” of private credit, the asset class is now grappling with a period of uncertainty following its astronomical growth. That volatility includes a wave of redemptions – when investors go to credit funds and ask for their money back — on top of disruption from AI and calls for more transparency. The wildcard of retail investors also raises the stakes. In this episode, we discuss the negative outlook for perpetual non-traded BDCs (Business Development Companies), the impact from the Middle East conflict, exposure for the software sector, and what regulators might do next. Host: Gabriel Agostini, Assistant Vice President, Credit Strategy and Research, Moody's Ratings Guests: Marc Pinto, Global Head of Private Credit, Moody's Ratings; Atsi Sheth, Chief Credit Officer, Moody's Ratings Related Research: Private Credit – Global Volatility will intensify focus on liquidity, transparency 22 April 2026 Business Development Companies – US – Outlook changes to negative on increased redemption pressures, higher leverage 7 April 2026 Private Credit – North America – Credit Estimates point to eroding credit quality among middle-market borrowers 13 April 2026 Banks – US – Aggregate loan exposure to non-depository financial institutions rises to $1.4 trillion 31 March 2026 Moody's Private Credit Insights © 2026 Moody's Corporation and/or its licensors and affiliates.

Jacob's favoritism for his wife Rachel leads to his favoritism for Joseph. The gift of a beautiful robe to Joseph only exacerbates the growing hatred that Jacob's other sons have for Joseph. Even if Joseph had no ill intent, Joseph himself doesn't help that hatred when he reveals his two dreams that showed his family subservient to him. Although the family dynamics are strained, the beginning text of the story of Joseph begins to reveal that this will be another time when God is at work for the good of His people. Rev. Matt Wietfeldt, Assistant Vice President of Admissions at Concordia Theological Seminary in Ft. Wayne, IN, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Genesis 37:1-11.

Cultivating H.E.R. Space: Uplifting Conversations for the Black Woman
Hey lady! By now it is clear that we are living through an extreme backlash to the gains made by Black Americans, non-Black minorities, and women. The most glaring manifestation of this is the rollback of Affirmative Action and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs across the country. Not only were programs built to uplift non-Whites completely eliminated but they were removed with a velocity that made many American’s head recoil from whiplash. Seemingly overnight companies united to align with the current regime’s warped ideal of what the American workplace should operate as. The thing is we, as Americans, have long moved past civil rights era workplace politics and practices. Black Americans have consistently demonstrated our aptitude and ability to be top contributors to the corporate workforce and that doesn’t have to stop despite this regime’s best efforts, according to Dr. Marissiko Wheaton-Greer, Assistant Vice President for People, Purpose and Policy at an affordable housing nonprofit and researcher on social identity, critical consciousness building, and leadership. Dr. Wheaton-Greer offers a balanced perspective about why this moment feels different and how you can navigate hostile, tenuous workplace situations. Tune in lady and have your Cultivating H.E.R. Space journal with you so you can write down a few of the scripts Dr. Wheaton-Greer offers. Her guidance will have you managing challenging scenarios with grace, dignity and the class you’ve already cultivated. Quote of the Day: "We cannot talk about DEI in broad categories. In order to dive deeply and give people the competence they need to be good colleagues and stewards of this work, we need to be specific and engage in the unique experiences of various communities and identities." – Dr. Marissiko Wheaton-Greer This episode is sponsored by VB Health, a woman-owned, physician-led supplement company creating doctor-formulated supplements that work.

Winning is fun but culture is built long before the scoreboard lights up. In Part 2 of our conversation, John Ashaolu, Assistant Vice President for Athletics at Lewis University, breaks down what it really takes to build a championship-level athletic department. From revitalizing alumni engagement and transforming the annual golf outing at Cog Hill into a record-breaking experience, to rebranding the student section as “The Cockpit,” John shares how intentional fan experience drives brand equity and school pride. We also dive into his philosophy of curating an elite student-athlete experience, why that's his daily motivation, how it shapes hiring decisions, and how it contributes to Lewis finishing 11th nationally in the Division II Directors Cup rankings. This episode is about raising standards, refusing to rest on success, and understanding that culture isn't a slogan, it's what you do every single day.
