    WHEN LIFE IS GOOD BUT YOUR MIND ISN'T | Mindset Mastery w/ A.Z. Araujo

    Badass Agents Podcast

    Play Episode Listen Later Feb 2, 2026 20:48


    In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery, I open up about something I wrestle with constantly and that is the tension between pressure and gratitude. Running a business, leading a household, being a husband and a father all come with responsibility. That responsibility can quietly turn into suffering if I am not careful about where my mind goes. I talk about how easy it is to get trapped in comparison, future goals, past mistakes, and the weight of everything I think I should be doing. My mind moves fast. Too fast at times. When I let it run unchecked, it creates pressure that feels overwhelming. Not because life is bad, but because I stop being present. I stop checking myself. I forget how far I have come. Marriage and family play a big role in this conversation. What people see from the outside is never the full picture. Carla and I carry a lot together. We take on the challenges of running a large operation, supporting agents, and navigating life as partners. Sometimes the stress leaks into the home. Sometimes we say things we do not mean. I have learned that the real suffering does not come from the situation itself but from holding onto anger, shame, and resentment instead of processing it and moving forward. I share honestly that positivity does not come naturally to me. It is something I work at every day. I wake up and my mind wants to go negative. So I fight back with intention. I listen to books and podcasts focused on awareness and discipline. I move my body. I create space to slow my thoughts down. These practices help but even then it is easy to forget to check the thermometer and realize I am overheating mentally. One moment that stopped me in my tracks came from listening to a story on a podcast while cleaning my car. A forest ranger survived being crushed under a fallen tree in the rainforest. After hours trapped under rubble she survived with barely a scratch. The next morning she was lying in a hammock saying one simple phrase over and over. I am alive. Hearing that broke me open. That moment pulled me back to being seventeen years old after weeks in the hospital not knowing if I would live. I remember driving home and seeing the world differently. The sky was brighter. Everything felt beautiful. I was overwhelmed with gratitude just to be here. I was alive. Somewhere along the way I forgot how powerful that realization is. I reflect on how easy it is to move from praying for a life to rushing through it once you have it. I remind myself that everything I have today was once a prayer. The suffering I create now is unnecessary. It comes from living in the past or racing into the future instead of standing firmly in the present. The solution is not complicated but it does require honesty and action. Be here. Tell your spouse you love them. Tell your kids how proud you are. Call your parents. Look in the mirror and say you are proud of yourself. When I focus on what I can do right now everything else eventually takes care of itself. Life is good right now. The work is learning how to believe that and live from it. Reader Reflection Questions Where has your mind been spending most of its time lately in the past the future or the present What parts of your life were once prayers that you may now be overlooking What is one small action you can take today to be more present with the people who matter most Notable Quotes I do not know if I am okay but I am alive Worry and anxiety are caused by too much focus on the future while guilt regret and resentment come from dwelling in the past Everything I have today was once a prayer Follow A.Z.

    She Slays the Day
    350 – Real Estate, Retirement, and the Truth About Wealth for Chiropractors feat. Dr. Abby Sirovica

    Why do so many chiropractors assume retirement will “just work out” — and why are so many discovering too late that it won't? In this episode, Dr. Lauryn sits down with Dr. Abby Sirovica to have an honest, unfiltered conversation about real estate, wealth-building, and what it actually takes to create financial freedom beyond the clinic. This isn't about hustle for hustle's sake — it's about realizing what's possible when you stop playing small.Together, they break down why relying solely on a chiropractic practice is risky, how real estate can become a powerful exit strategy, and the mindset shifts required to build long-term wealth. From short-term rentals and tax strategy to leadership, leverage, and designing a life with real autonomy, this episode challenges the assumptions many providers make about money, retirement, and success — and offers a clearer path forward.Key TakeawaysWealth for chiropractors requires leverage beyond the clinic. Building real estate assets creates cash flow, tax advantages, and freedom that patient care alone rarely provides.Real estate is accessible — even without business ownership. Associates and W2 earners can use short-term rentals and smart strategies to offset income and build wealth.Mindset and action matter more than perfect timing. Wealth grows when chiropractors stop waiting for certainty and start making informed, strategic moves.About the GuestDr. Abby Sirovica is a chiropractor, entrepreneur, and real estate investor known for her bold, strategic approach to wealth-building. She is the founder of Grassroots Family Chiropractic (now Grassroots Collective), co-owner of a wellness café, and a leader in short-term rental investing. Alongside her fiancé, she coaches healthcare professionals through HBA Academy and hosts The Expansion Podcast, helping providers scale their businesses, income, and impact beyond traditional models.Book a strategy call for your clinic with Dr. AbbyFollow Dr. Abby on InstagramResources:Follow Dr. Lauryn: Instagram | X | LinkedIn | FacebookFollow She Slays on YouTubeSign up for the Weekly Slay newsletter!Mentioned in this episode:Go from surviving to thriving with Genesis Chiropractic Software.

    On the Wednesday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Brian Batko to analyze the next moves in front of new coach Mike McCarthy now that he's been introduced. Can anyone from outside the Mike Tomlin and Bill Cowher coaching tree really coach the defense the same way after McCarthy's commitment to keep the 3-4 scheme in place for now? Does that decision open the door for Teryl Austin to return? Or will he give way to reported candidates including Jason Simmons and Patrick Graham as the franchise looks to get more from a unit led by names like Cam Heyward, T.J. Watt, Jalen Ramsey and Joey Porter Jr.? Our duo tackles those questions, then pivots to offense. Will McCarthy cultivate a larger staff that Tomlin did under coordinators including Arthur Smith and Matt Canada? Opening space for younger coaches to rise through the ranks? Or will he try to keep the circle tight? Will he choose an OC from his own coaching tree, which includes reported candidates like Scott Tolzien and Lunda Wells? Or could he look outside at a name like Nate Scheelhaase, should the Browns decide not to target him in their own coaching search? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    You don't really know how alone you are after a wreck until the insurance company starts talking. In this episode of Sharkpreneur, Seth Greene interviews Darrell Burrow, a Bankruptcy and Personal Injury Attorney at Burrow & Associates, who shares what he's learned over nearly 30 years representing injured people in Georgia. Darrell explains why insurance companies aren't there to “do the right thing,” why most people leave money on the table, and what to do in the critical moments after a wreck. He also discusses building a values-driven law firm, fostering a culture of client empathy, and preparing the next generation of attorneys to carry the torch. Key Takeaways:→ The first call you should make after a car crash or personal injury is 911.→ Photos at the scene can become critical evidence.→ Documenting injuries immediately can make or break a claim.→ If the police don't file a report, Burrow & Associates can help by using a self-report form to create an official record.→ Making sure each client has an excellent experience is intentional, as most clients are often scared and overwhelmed. Darrell Burrow is an accomplished attorney with over 30 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate personal injury and bankruptcy cases. Born in Alabama and raised in Virginia, he earned his J.D. from the University of Alabama in 1992 and began his career clerking for Judge John Bush. In 1996, with the support of his wife, Darrell opened his own practice in Atlanta, which has since expanded to multiple offices across Georgia. Over the course of his career, he has successfully handled more than 30,000 cases, earning a reputation as a trusted advocate and advisor. Beyond the courtroom, Darrell is a devoted family man who values faith, fitness, and the outdoors. Whether boating, golfing, or camping under the stars with his children, he embraces life with a spirit of adventure while remaining deeply committed to his clients and community.

    In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery, I want to talk about something that weighs heavier than most people realize and that is the responsibility and guilt that can come with leadership advice and influence. There are moments where my mind feels full because leadership is not just about business decisions. It is about people. It is about hearing their struggles, their finances, their marriages, their health, and still being expected to show up strong. For years I tried to avoid leadership because I thought it was easier to just tell people what to do. What I learned is that real leadership is about empowering others to trust themselves and take ownership of their decisions. One of the hardest lessons I had to learn was separating advice from responsibility. When you give advice based on your experience, it comes from integrity. It comes from wanting others to avoid pain or move faster toward growth. But when someone takes that advice, the outcome is not yours to carry. If you take responsibility for their results, good or bad, you actually disempower them and yourself. I lived this lesson firsthand. After financial failures early in my life, I stopped trusting my own judgment. I leaned on Carla to make decisions and then blamed her when things did not work out. That resentment damaged trust and weakened me as a leader and as a husband. Advice only becomes toxic when it is used as a scapegoat instead of a guide. I realized that advice is information, not a guarantee. It is up to the person receiving it to make it their own and see it through. If they quit at the first obstacle, it becomes easy to call it bad advice. But most growth happens after things get uncomfortable. Everything meaningful in my life got harder before it got better. Marriage. Business. Leadership. Faith. I have given advice about quitting jobs, maxing out credit cards, betting on yourself, and rebuilding relationships. I share what I did, not what someone should do. Leaders mirror what people already feel in their heart and soul. The danger comes when someone wants the result without the responsibility of seeing the process through. Guilt can destroy momentum if you let it sit unchecked. I carried guilt for years over borrowed money, failed ventures, and hard decisions. What finally freed me was understanding that time and integrity bring everything full circle. Debts get paid. Relationships heal. Growth happens. But only if you stay in it long enough. As leaders, parents, and mentors, our job is not to control outcomes. Our job is to speak truth from experience and allow others to take ownership of their choices. And if you are on the receiving end of advice, your responsibility is not to blame but to commit and see it through. Reader reflection questions Where in your life are you blaming advice instead of owning your decision What advice have you taken but not fully committed to seeing through How would your growth change if you released guilt and focused on responsibility Notable quotes "You cannot take responsibility for the outcome of someone else's decision." "Advice is not a guarantee. It is information." "Everything meaningful gets harder before it gets better."   1.

    Bad Boys of Bankruptcy: S3E1: Fraud on the Court: The 25-year Odyssey of Tudor Associates

    To the Extent That...

    Play Episode Listen Later Jan 26, 2026 50:16


    In a first for the series, this episode of Bad Boys of Bankruptcy explores a decades-long dispute arising in North Carolina that was originally filed as a Chapter XII case under the Bankruptcy Act of 1898. Our host, Judge Elizabeth Gunn (Bankr. D.D.C.), is joined by Judge Joseph N. Callaway (Bankr. E.D.N.C.) and retired Judge J. Rich Leonard (Bankr. E.D.N.C.), who is now the dean of Campbell Law School. In a complicated scheme to defraud their limited partners, George Osserman and his confidant and girlfriend, Zan Galloway, formed an entity which acquired interests in four parcels of real property in North Carolina which were heavily mortgaged. Osserman then formed Tudor Associates Ltd. II, a Nebraska limited partnership, and appointed Galloway as the general partner. Tudor then acquired the properties from Osserman's other entity, and gave the other entity a note secured by a wraparound deed of trust on all of the properties. In 1977, Tudor filed for bankruptcy under Chapter XII of the Bankruptcy Act of 1898, and in 1979 proposed to sell the properties to an Ohio corporation that, unbeknownst to the bankruptcy court and other parties, was in fact controlled by Osserman. After learning that Osserman in fact controlled the purchaser, Tudor's limited partners sued in 1983 to set aside the sale on the grounds of fraud. Although Section 511 of the Bankruptcy Act of 1898 and Rule 60(b)(3) meant that the limited partners' claim was time barred, the bankruptcy court employed a novel theory and avoided one half of the transfer of the notes, totaling $11.6 million, on the grounds of fraud on the court. Judge Callaway recalls the extensive litigation and appeals that were involved in his efforts to collect on this judgment (including a subsequent Chapter 11 case filed by one of the judgment debtors), where he served as the Chapter XII trustee in the Tudor bankruptcy case, and Judge Leonard recounts the novel issues presented in the subsequent Chapter 11 case, including issues related to the bankruptcy court's “related to” jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1334.

    Bob Miller, CEO and Founder of IRGame, Gamification for Incident Response Training

    Bob Miller, CEO and Founder of IRGame, is a technology entrepreneur with 30+ years of experience across cybersecurity and emerging technologies. He's a pioneer in using AI-powered gamification for incident response (“IR”) training, designed specifically for busy executives who can't spend full days in training but must make high-stakes decisions quickly during real crises. IRGame puts executive teams through realistic scenario such as ransomware, data breaches, business email compromise, and AI-related incidents, so they can practice decision-making under pressure. Returning to Lafayette and building startups Bob graduated in 1988 from University of Louisiana – Monroe in Computer Science and Math. He moved back to Louisiana from San Jose around 2010 and chose Lafayette as home. Almost immediately, the Lafayette Economic Development Authority (LEDA) contacted him about helping build a startup accelerator. With experience across roughly 10 startups, he became founding director of what he named the Opportunity Machine, where his title was “Head Machinist”). Bob later continued mentoring via the Accelerator Board. After three years, engineer and entrepreneur Bill Fenstermaker recruited him to help commercialize products at Fenstermaker & Associates. Bob worked on projects including a custom GIS system and underwater acoustics, following earlier work in areas like satellite systems. Later he became COO at Waitr in its early stage, helping scale from about 300 to 3,000 employees in roughly 12–14 months, the kind of operational scaling challenge he's often brought in to manage. He then joined a local managed service provider and helped transform it into a managed security service provider, an experience that directly led to IR Game. Why IR Game exists Bob identified a persistent problem: many organizations resist spending time and money on cybersecurity because they don't understand it and lack an emotional connection because they have never experienced a crisis. Traditional tabletop training exercises meant to train a business team on how to respond during a crisis (paper scenarios, PowerPoint presentations, and sitting around a conference table discussing solutions) have existed for decades, but they're time-consuming (often 80–90 hours to prepare) and require pulling people into a room for a full day, which makes them expensive and hard to scale. If it's hard, many companies simply don't do it. Bob attended a cybersecurity conference and participated in a tabletop designed for managed service providers, an exercise that was “fundamentally terrifying” and eye-opening. A worst-case Managed Service Provider (“MSP”) scenario is when a third-party tool, especially remote monitoring and management (RMM) software, gets compromised. That can lead to ransomware across an MSP's entire customer base simultaneously. The exercise illustrated IRGame's central insight: about 80% of incident response is non-technical in nature: financial consequences, shutdown decisions, customer impact, employee panic, communications, reputational and legal exposure. Bob brought the tabletop back to his company and ran it with 80 of 130 employees, customizing it with real customer names, revenue figures, and tenure. Even with a mature incident response plan and twice-yearly practice, they discovered a dozen needed changes. That convinced him that if a well-prepared security organization learns that much from a scenario, “everybody can.” The breakthrough: turning tabletop into an online multiplayer game During that exercise, a longtime software collaborator of Bob’s mentioned he still had a dormant game app framework built years earlier for a high-school project with Bob's daughter. He believed he could convert the paper tabletop into an online multiplayer experience in a weekend. After running the in-person tabletop on Thursday, he demonstrated a working browser-based multiplayer version on Sunday. They showed it to cybersecurity tabletop authors and industry influencers, Matt Lee and Ethan Tancredi, who were shocked by how quickly the tabletop content had been transformed into a functional digital game. Soon after, they invited about 20 people to test it. The early version looked rough, like a 1980s text adventure, but it worked. The response was far stronger than expected: participants reported intense emotional engagement and immediate practical takeaways. One government participant said it left him rattled, with pages of notes and a need for a drink; an MSP in Hawaii asked when he could use it with customers. That became a monthly community practice program: they've run 25+ free games, putting 1,000+ people through the system. As demand grew—especially from providers wanting to use it with customers—IRGame chose to commercialize. IR Game mirrors tabletop training but compresses it into a high-intensity, guided simulation. A scenario is narrated like scenes in a movie. Participants answer opening questions to get teams communicating quickly, which is critical because incident response requires fast coordination. Players assume roles and must allocate limited resources to tasks. Challenges pile up faster than teams can handle them, forcing prioritization and tradeoffs, just like real incidents. A key design element is pressure: a relentless timer counts down; there's no pause button. This stress reveals the truth: under pressure, people become more honest about gaps in their preparedness. That's valuable because organizations often sugarcoat weaknesses—until a simulation forces real reactions. Bob explained an example crisis scenario: a business email compromise (which he says is currently a dominant incident type). A financial firm discovers a customer wired money to a “new account” supposedly sent by the CFO, yet the CFO didn't send it. As the story unfolds, participants learn the compromise likely affected many customers, not just one. The game surfaces operational realities executives often miss: internal rumors, uncontrolled communications, legal exposure triggered by words like “breach,” and the need for an “event mode” communications policy that calms the organization and prevents chaos. AI scenarios and new risks IRGame also focuses on emerging AI-related risks. Miller says they ran what they described as the first AI incident scenario at a national security conference (IT Nation Secure) and now maintain multiple AI scenarios. The point is not to create fear, but to provide a safe environment to practice decisions around new threat patterns. Practical cybersecurity guidance for individuals and small businesses Bob emphasizes that cybersecurity is no longer optional and that AI strengthens attackers as well as defenders. He predicts that in 2026 smaller businesses will face increased targeting, because automation lets “two dudes and a dog” run campaigns that once required larger teams, making up revenue in volume rather than big single payouts. He also notes that cybercriminal ecosystems now resemble legitimate businesses, including tools, support, and organizational structure. Bob recommends baseline controls that are realistic for small organizations: unique passwords, password managers, multi-factor authentication, training on phishing, cyber insurance, and economical endpoint monitoring (EDR/MDR). These measures raise the cost for attackers so they move on to easier targets, though no control is perfect. On password managers, Bob uses Keeper and mentions 1Password and others. He strongly warns against saving passwords in browsers. He also flags emerging concerns about AI-enabled browsers that maintain a large “context window” across many sites, potentially increasing risk if compromised. On online exposure to your information, such as emails and staff info on websites, he advises sharing only what's necessary. Data can be scraped and used for phishing and impersonation. Deepfakes and better-written scams are making social engineering harder to detect. He also notes that much personal data is already exposed through breaches, citing Louisiana's DMV breach as an example of widespread data loss where every licensed driver's Social Security Number was compromised. Incident response planning and insurance pressure A recurring theme: organizations need an incident response plan and must practice it, especially as cyber insurers increasingly demand proof. In a room of 50+ attorneys he spoke to recently, Miller found only three had a plan, and none practiced it. He warned that future claims could be denied if companies claim they had plans but don't demonstrate practice.

You can also see how IRGame works by visiting its youtube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@IRGameify Personal note: music and creativity Outside cybersecurity, Miller is a musician, primarily blues/rock, and often appears on video with guitars behind him. He draws a parallel between software development and music: both require creativity within rules. He argues policies and procedures aren't bureaucracy—they're like scales and tempo: structure that enables effective performance under pressure.

About this episode… For many advisors, success is defined by growth: more clients, more assets, more revenue. But at some point, the question shifts from, “How big can we build this?” to “What happens next?” After nearly two decades at Merrill, Tim Krueger and his partners had built a $1.4B practice and one of the most successful teams in their market. By any traditional measure, the internal sunset path would have been the simplest option. But simplicity wasn't the goal. Protecting clients, creating opportunities for the next generation, and preserving the culture they had built mattered more. That led Tim and his partners to make a very different decision: to break away from the wirehouse, sell out of that environment entirely, and align with NewEdge Advisors in a way that solved for succession, liquidity, and long-term continuity—simultaneously. In this conversation with Louis Diamond, Tim shares how focusing on other people's needs – clients, teammates, and future leaders – became the ultimate growth strategy. Plus, they discuss: Lessons learned over nearly two decades at Merrill—and how structure, team building, and next gen cultivation become paramount. Stepping away from Merrill's CTP retire-in-place program—and what other business owners shared with him that inspired the decision to leave the wirehouse. Opting to align with NewEdge Advisors—and how liquidity and continuity were key factors. “Shrinking to grow”—and why it isn't just a portfolio philosophy, but a business one. Monetizing the business—and how the process can be a new beginning for the business, not an end for the business owners. Building a true runway for G2 and G3—and how it can create a rare win-win-win for founders, teams, and clients alike. It's a candid look at what life after a wirehouse can unlock—and how thinking differently about succession can redefine both legacy and fulfillment.

    Welcome back to Warehouse and Operations as a Career. I'm your host, Marty T Hawkins. Today, I want to talk about something I've heard repeatedly over the years, but especially over the past few weeks, and that is the growing importance of, lets see, what am I going to call it, attitude over experience, in the light industrial world. We've spoke to attitude a couple of times recently but just this week, I had two different customers say almost the same thing to me. They both told me something like, yes, experience is important. But if you come across an applicant with a great attitude and a strong personality, set them up for an interview. That statement says a lot about where our industry is at, and it's what I'd like to talk about today. Now, everything we've learned over the course of the last 349 episodes, today is number 350 by the way, everything we've learned remains true. Our experience absolutely matters. Safety always matters and our skill and competency to perform our task matters. But what we're seeing more and more is that experience alone is no longer enough. For a long time, hiring in the fields of warehousing, manufacturing, and distribution was simple. We'd be asked if we could do the job? Had we done the job before? And could we hit the numbers? And if the answer was yes, you were probably getting hired. Today, that model doesn't always work. Like we discussed over the last quarter, operations have changed. Expectations have changed. And the type of associate who succeeds long-term has changed as well. Two weeks ago on one of our ask me anything shows, what was that title, Not my job and a raise. We discussed how Warehouses today are not one-task environments anymore. Associates are expected to communicate clearly, be willing to learn new processes, cross-train into other roles, be willing to help cover gaps when staffing is tight, basically, wear more than one hat. We learned the phrase that's not my job doesn't hold much weight anymore, and frankly, it can be a career limiter. Because of that shift, I believe adaptability and mindset have become critical. Operation teams feel you can train someone how to load a trailer, how to operate equipment, and train someone on picking procedures. But they feel, and they are correct, what's much harder to train is willingness, coachability, accountability, positivity and a strong work ethic. That's where attitude comes in. Now when managers talk about attitude, they're not talking about being overly cheerful or talkative. They're talking about things like showing up on time, being willing to learn, and this one is a big one, accepting feedback without getting defensive. What else did I write down, lets see, communicating clearly and professionally. And here's another thing we've spoken too, following safety rules even when no one is watching and helping teammates instead of competing against them. It's been realized that these behaviors directly affect safety, productivity, and culture. A highly experienced associate with a poor attitude can do more damage to the team than someone brand new who wants to learn. They may ignore procedures, resist change, create friction on the floor, influence others negatively, and even push back against leadership. On the other hand, an associate with limited experience but a strong attitude often becomes one of the most valuable people on the team within just a few months. I'm finding this is especially true in general labor roles, loading and unloading, order picking, packing and sorting, and any kind of material handling positions. These are physically demanding jobs. They require teamwork, pace, and focus. I'm seeing how a positive attitude in these roles shows up quickly with faster learning, better safety habits, better or consistent productivity, lower turnover, and stronger team morale. Many supervisors will tell you this straight out, they would rather train someone who wants to be there than manage someone who knows the job but doesn't care. Now, let's talk about skilled positions. Forklift operators, order selection, pallet runners, and production or manufacturing machine operators, these roles absolutely require training, experience, and a demonstrated skill. But even here, attitude matters more than many people realize. Operators today must communicate with leads and supervisors, follow system direction to a tee, and be able to adjust priorities throughout the shift, and again be willing to accept coaching, all while staying focused for long periods of time. Kind of like we said earlier, an operator with a great attitude is one that takes pride in their work, protects their equipment, respects safety rules, and helps the team succeed. I threw that one in again because I feel in this new world, a team environment, it's worth repeating! Those qualities are separating average operators from outstanding ones. And I want to make this statement again, and we as employees and employers need to learn it, is that communication is one of the biggest reasons attitude has become so important. Warehouses today rely on radios, text alerts, shift meetings, safety huddles, and performance coaching and hand-offs between shifts. I think we've always walked through the motions but today, our responsibilities are more and the expectations are higher. We're all learning, or maybe accepting, that associates who communicate well prevent problems before they happen. They ask questions. They speak up about safety. They clarify instructions and they don't just assume. An HR manager shared with me, that he felt, that good communication usually stems from the right attitude, a willingness to listen and engage. Another major shift of thought is the expectation that associates will continuously learn and want to learn. New systems, new customers, new equipment, and new processes mean the job is always evolving. The associates who succeed are the ones who embrace learning instead of resisting it. That same HR manager shared that a strong attitude toward learning looks like curiosity, patience during training, accepting mistakes as part of growth, and wanting to improve. He feels like experience without a learning mindset eventually becomes outdated. For recruiters and hiring managers, this shift changes how they evaluate candidates. Yep, resumes matter, but they don't tell the whole story. Behavioral questions matter more than ever. How do you handle learning something new? Tell me about a time you had to adapt. How do you respond to feedback? What motivates you at work? These kind of questions reveal mindset, and mindset predicts long-term success. We as applicants aren't used to these types of questions. I guess in a way there's our first opportunity to change our way of thinking! Ok, If you're listening and you're an applicant or associate, here's the good news. Your attitude is your competitive advantage. You don't need a perfect resume, and you may not need years of experience. But you do need or the new need is reliability, a willingness to learn, a strong respect for safety, and that professional communication, a positive mindset. Those behaviors get noticed quickly and they open doors. To wrap up, I know that experience will always matter in the light industrial world. But today, attitude often is a determining factor in who gets hired, who gets promoted, and who builds a long-term career. In an industry built on teamwork, safety, communication, and constant movement, mindset fuels everything else. And right now, a great attitude is more valuable than ever.

    "Scala" It's hard to explain everything Barry Adamson did before he was thirty. By then, his resume' was so packed with highlights it was hard to believe there was room for more. But there was. Like, a lot more. Let me explain. The Manchester-born Barry Adamson got his start in music in the late '70s by playing bass for Magazine, a band led by ex-Buzzcock Howard DeVoto. Adamson, who was briefly in the Buzzcocks himself, went on to play with Visage and Luxuria before joining Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. Adamson played on legendary Cave albums like From Her To Eternity and Kicking Against The Pricks and from there, he stepped into the Iggy Pop fold and toured with Mr. Pop in '87. By then, Adamson was close to thirty and in many ways, that's the point where he really started to spread his musical wings, realizing he liked being on his own than being one of the guys in a band. From there, Adamson started to explore electronic and dub-fueled soundscapes and he moved effortlessly from strength to strength, releasing classic solo albums like Moss Side Story, the 1992 Mercury Prize nominated Soul Murder and his new one, La Scala. More on that in a minute. Over the course of his winning career, Adamson has played with The Birthday, Party, collaborated with everyone from Pulp's Jarvis Crocker to Billy McKenzie of the Associates, contributed to movie soundtracks like David Lynch's Lost Highway and done remixes for everyone from Depeche Mode to The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. His new album La Scala is the original score for the 2023 documentary Scala!!! Or, The Incredibly Strange Rise And Fall Of The World's Wildest Cinema. The film is a stirring and rousing homage to the legendary London arthouse movie theatre and Adamson's inventive score uses elements of jazz, funk and post-punk noir to detail the rise and fall of a building that meant a lot of people whose lives were saved by the freedom and spirit of life in the counterculture. www.barryadamson.com www.bombshellradio.com (http://www.bombshellradio.com) www.stereoembersmagazine.com (http://www.stereoembersmagazine.com) www.alexgreenbooks.com (http://www.alexgreenbooks.com) Stereo Embers IG + Bluesky: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com

    Beyond the Sketchbook: Mastering the Business of Design with Industry Leaders. Esteemed practitioners Keith Granet, Grant Kirkpatrick, Tom Stringer, and Louis Taylor share candid insights into the origin stories, critical business skills, and forward-looking strategies necessary to build and sustain a successful design practice. Moderated by Cheryl Durst (EVP and CEO of IIDA), the panel focused on the transition from being a talented designer to running a thriving, resilient business, covering genesis, operations, talent management, branding, and future-proofing. Origin Stories and Industry Appreciation: The panelists shared diverse paths into design. Some were drawn in early (Grant and Tom), while others arrived via finance and business consulting (Keith and Louis). Louis Taylor (Finance, SchappacherWhite) noted that, coming from auditing various industries, design is “absolutely the best industry to work in by far.” The 80/20 Rule of Entrepreneurship: A critical takeaway for design professionals is understanding that running a firm is primarily a business function. Keith Granet and Grant Kirkpatrick stressed that the time split is often 70–80% focused on business (HR, finance, marketing, systems) and only 20–30% on actual design work. Keith Granet (Granet and Associates, Leaders of Design) emphasized that good systems and data tracking (like a monthly “executive summary” of financials) are “freeing” and allow for greater creativity by alleviating stress over payroll and rent. Infrastructure and Skill Development: Hire Your Weaknesses: The consensus was to surround yourself with great consultants (finance, PR, marketing) and “hire your weaknesses” to empower the principal designer to focus on their “highest and best use.” Future Talent Gap: Louis Taylor noted that junior staff coming out of school often require significant training in “soft skills” (people skills, professional email etiquette, presentation, listening) to bridge the gap between conceptual learning and the real-world practice. Branding and Storytelling: Effective messaging must be authentic and focus on an idea bigger than the work itself. Grant Kirkpatrick (KAA Design Group) detailed their use of “The Five Whys” to articulate a vision, which for his firm is the belief that “design elevates the human spirit.” Tom Stringer (Tom Stringer Design Partners) built his brand around his personal value of adventure, which attracts clients who are “kindred spirits.” He emphasized that design is predicated on building trust over multiple generations. Future Proofing and Resilience: AI and Technology: The panelists recognized AI as a powerful, unavoidable tool that will alleviate mundane tasks and enhance existing work, though it also presents a significant challenge (“scares the shit out of us,” noted Keith). Firms must embrace it. * **Talent Retention:** **Institutional knowledge** is key to longevity. Firms are focusing on creating exceptional workspaces, competitive benefits (like sabbatical programs), and internal culture to recruit and **retain the best talent.** * **Mentorship:** Mentoring should be a fundamental part of a firm’s **culture**, not a forced, rigid program. It is essential at all career stages, providing wisdom and long-term connections that help owners stay agile and resourceful.

    Junior associates in BigLaw often ask for more client exposure early in their careers, but what they really need most is a clearer understanding of how clients actually operate and make decisions. In this episode, I speak with Lynda Galligan and Josh Klatzkin, both members of Goodwin's management and executive committees, and co-chairs of the firm's Business Law Department, about why the firm's early client immersion program for junior associates addresses this key development and training issue. Lynda and Josh explain how traditional BigLaw training can delay meaningful client exposure, why business undersanding is assumed rather than a differentiator, and how understanding of a client's business needs and concerns must be learned. We also discuss how Goodwin's structured training program makes early immersion viable, what clients gain from working with junior lawyers, and how early exposure reshapes the way associates approach client relationships throughout their careers.

    On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Christopher Carter to ponder the ways QBs factor into the search to replace Mike Tomlin as coach. Could owner Art Rooney II and GM Omar Khan prioritize Aaron Rodgers returning with a name like Mike McCarthy? Or is Rodgers too old to receive that kind of deference in this process? Will young candidates like Chris Shula, Nate Scheelhaase and others value the ability to start fresh at the position? Or will they look at the lack of a franchise QB as a downside to taking the job? Could a new coach look to bring in a veteran option like Malik Willis? And what are the chances we see a young QB like Will Howard or an NFL draft rookie like Ty Simpson, Drew Allar, Cade Klubnik or Garrett Nussmeier get a long look in 2026? Our duo tackles those questions, plus the possible influence of rostered players including Cam Heyward, T.J. Watt, Joey Porter Jr., Derrick Harmon, Zach Frazier and others over the process.

    In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery, I found myself slowing down and paying attention to something that has shaped every area of my life and business over the years. Self awareness. I walked into the studio a little wired, moving fast, thoughts racing, and it reminded me how easy it is to lose control when you are not grounded. That moment pulled me back to a principle I wrote down years ago. My responsibility is to lead myself, lead my family, lead my team, and lead my business. None of that happens without awareness. As I reflected on what I see every week inside the business, I started connecting the dots between friction and lack of growth. Friction shows up when deals fall apart, when clients lose trust, when agents feel blindsided, and when emotions take over. I see it clearly when I look at cancellations. The majority of deals that fall apart come from newer agents or agents with fewer transactions, not because they are incapable, but because expectations were not set and preparation was missing. When you do not explain the process upfront, when you assume clients understand, you create confusion. And confusion always leads to friction. I have learned that friction is not something to blame on others. It is something to look inward at. Every time I felt emotionally charged, defensive, or frustrated, it came back to my own lack of preparation or communication. When clients question your value or your commission, it is not an attack. It is feedback. It means the foundation was not built strongly enough. Confidence does not come from hoping a deal closes. It comes from knowing you prepared, explained, and led with intention. What changed my life was stacking three things together. Self awareness. Self development. Self discipline. Awareness helps you see where things broke down. Development gives you the tools to fix it. Discipline makes sure you do not repeat the same mistakes. When I stopped reacting emotionally and started responding strategically, everything shifted. My communication became clearer. My leadership became stronger. My results became more consistent. I have learned that it does not matter what you think you said. It matters what the other person heard. If clients are surprised, confused, or defensive, that is on us. Our job is to slow down, explain the process, and make sure they understand every step. When expectations are clear, trust stays intact. When trust stays intact, deals move forward. This is not just about real estate. This is about how you show up in life. If there is friction, it is pointing you to something you need to see. You cannot change what you refuse to look at. Growth begins the moment you take responsibility for your words, your actions, and your preparation. The more aware you become, the less reactive you are. The more disciplined you are, the less chaos you create. And the more intentional you are, the faster momentum builds. Reader reflection questions Where in your business are you experiencing repeated friction and what might it be trying to show you How clearly are you setting expectations with your clients before problems arise What daily disciplines do you need to strengthen to lead yourself at a higher level Notable quotes from the episode "You cannot change what you refuse to see." "If you find yourself explaining or defending yourself, there is a wrench in your system." "It does not matter what you think you said. It matters what they heard."   Follow A.Z.

    The Bulletproof Dental Podcast Episode 423 HOSTS: Dr. Peter Boulden and Dr. Craig Spodak DESCRIPTION In this engaging conversation, Peter Boulden and Craig discuss the challenges associates face in dental practices, the importance of mentorship, and the impact of economic factors on dentistry. They reflect on the legacy of Dr. Bruce Baird, explore the future of AI in dentistry, and emphasize the need for effective communication and same-day dentistry to enhance productivity. The discussion also touches on overcoming money mindset issues and the necessity of strategic planning for dental practices. TAKEAWAYS Associates need to be proactive in seeking same-day dentistry opportunities. Effective communication and visual aids can significantly improve patient acceptance of treatment plans. Money mindset issues can hinder associates' productivity and decision-making. Mentorship is crucial for the growth and success of new associates in dental practices. Understanding economic trends can help dentists navigate their practices more effectively. Same-day dentistry can be a game changer for practice growth. Associates should not diagnose based on patients' perceived financial situations. Utilizing technology in consultations can enhance patient understanding and trust. Creating a supportive environment for associates fosters their development and confidence. Dentists should focus on long-term goals and strategic planning for their practices.
