American Institute of CPAs - Personal Financial Planning (PFP)
Host Cary Sinnett is joined by Dr. Brianne Smith, a PFP practitioner, CPA firm owner, and accounting professor at Auburn University, for a timely conversation on artificial intelligence in financial planning. Artificial intelligence is moving quickly into financial planning workflows, but not all "AI" tools are created equal. For CPA financial planners, the opportunity is significant: increased efficiency, deeper insights, and more client-centered communication. The risk lies in adopting technology without fully understanding what it does, how it works, and where human judgment must remain firmly in place. Explore with Dr. Brianne Smith how CPA financial planners can separate AI hype from real innovation and adopt emerging tools responsibly, with a clear focus on supervision, workflow integration, and maintaining client trust. What You'll Learn How to distinguish true AI from traditional automation and why that difference matters in practice Real-world examples of how AI is already enhancing document review, meeting documentation, and investment analysis How to supervise AI outputs responsibly while maintaining professional judgment and client trust How role mapping can help identify where AI and automation can free planners to focus on higher-value client work How AI can support both practice scalability and the next generation of CPA financial planners AICPA Resources: AICPA Personal Financial Planning Symposium Video: AI and Technology Updates for Financial Planning Practices Center: AI Tax Resource Learning: The AI Advantage: Leveraging AI for Efficiency and Impact Center: Tax Research This episode is brought to you by the AICPA's Personal Financial Planning Section, the premier provider of information, tools, advocacy, and guidance for professionals who specialize in providing tax, estate, retirement, risk management and investment planning advice.

What have the Austrians ever done for us?The answer is quite a lot, particularly regarding the importance of liberty and free markets, and how government overreach in economic matters results in long-term damage and decline.However, Carl Menger, Ludwig von Mises, Friedrich Hayek, and other members of the so-called Austrian School have long occupied a fringe position in conventional economic thought, and their ideas have been excluded from policymakers' toolkits, which are dominated by the Keynesian framework.But is this changing?The evidence suggests it might be. The growing interest in non-state-backed money, the rise of social media platforms such as Substack, which provide outlets for new ideas, and, significantly, the Milei Revolution, now underway in Argentina, all point to a renaissance in Austrian economics. Javier Milei regards himself as an Austrian economist and cites, among others, Mises, Hayek and Murray Rothbard as his heroes, whose ideas changed his life. They may yet change the course of Argentina's history.So, I was honoured when Dr Mark Thornton of Auburn University and the Mises Institute agreed to join me for a discussion on the Austrian School and its growth since the early 1980s. At that time, we were both undergraduates reading works such as Hayek's The Road to Serfdom, von Mises' Human Action, and Rothbard's Man, Economy & State. And it turns out that we may have met previously, 45 years ago. It is sometimes a small world. We had a great conversation in which Mark outlined his optimistic view of how Austrian ideas can help us understand the investment landscape, the broader significance of Milei's reform agenda, and our world where human action seeks opportunities in non-fiat money.Mark's published works include The Skyscraper Curse: How Austrian Economics Predicted Every Major Economic Crisis of the Last Century. Additionally, articles, digests, and podcasts from the Mises Institute, which provides extensive freely available content for those keen to learn more about the Austrian way of thinking and its growing relevance to our times. However, of course, none of what you are about to hear is any kind of advice but solely for your information and hopefully, entertainment. Please seek personal financial advice before investing a penny of your money in these crazy markets. With that said, please enjoy my conversation with the maverick Austrian economist, Dr Mark Thornton.Brought to you by Progressive Equity.

Matty is back from a brief hiatus and couldn't be more excited to welcome one of his childhood best friends to the podcast: up-and-coming country music artist Ben Durand (@ben_durand_music). In this heartfelt and hilarious episode, Matty and Ben take a trip down memory lane, revisiting their early days performing together on stage — including the moment Ben was once told “not to sing” during his first production of Fiddler on the Roof (talk about a plot twist).From defying the odds to make the Auburn University football team in his junior year, to teaching himself how to play guitar and chasing his dream of becoming a country singer-songwriter, Ben opens up about his creative journey. He shares how personal struggles shaped his music, the realities of the music industry grind, and what it really takes to stay motivated as an independent artist.This episode is a powerful, funny, and inspiring catch-up between two small-town best friends — and a must-listen for fans of country music, storytelling, and chasing big dreams.Follow us on Tik Tok and Instagram: @mattydurkin and @thepopcornerpod on Instagram Hosted on Acast.

In this powerful and thought-provoking episode of 1819 News: The Podcast , host Bryan Dawson takes listeners on a gripping journey through the cultural battles shaping Alabama, America, and the future of Western civilization itself. Drawing on vivid metaphors—from Y ellowstone to the biblical creation mandate—Dawson introduces the compelling “Dutton Principle”: Anything worth having will inevitably be targeted, and unless we defend it with courage, it will be lost. This episode zeroes in on one of Alabama's most influential institutions: Auburn University. Dawson makes a passionate case for why Auburn is not only worth protecting but uniquely positioned to become the nation's model for what a bold, unapologetically traditional university can be. With stories uncovered by 1819 News—ranging from DEI rebranding tactics and radical curriculum choices to controversial hiring decisions and alleged race-based admissions practices—Dawson paints a candid picture of a university at a crossroads. But this conversation goes far beyond campus politics. Dawson zooms out to connect today's cultural tensions to a sweeping historical narrative of Christendom, Western civilization, and the ideological forces that have sought to dismantle them for over a century. From the Bolshevik Revolution to the “long march through the institutions,” he traces how modern progressive ideology took root and explains why its rise represents not just a political struggle, but a spiritual one. At the heart of the episode is a clear, energizing call to action: leaders must lead. Whether trustees, administrators, alumni, or everyday citizens, Dawson argues that those entrusted with influence have a responsibility to protect what is good, true, and beautiful—and to remove what threatens the hearts, minds, and souls of future generations. Bold, unfiltered, and deeply motivating, this episode challenges listeners to see the cultural landscape with fresh clarity and to engage with renewed purpose. If you care about Alabama, education, or the future of America, this is an episode you cannot afford to miss.

On this week's Keepin It Real, Cam discussion rebellion in children and how it's recently hit his home. ----- All children rebel against their family and their parents. I certainly did. I see photos of myself as a teen with hair touching my collar and remember my father telling me over and over again to get it cut. I didn't and maybe I didn't because it bothered him so much. I knew my kids would rebel, too. It was inevitable. And much of it's been the same over time – hair styles, vocabulary, music, and clothing. These are the signs of rebellion. They have been for a long long while. My hope was that my kids wouldn't show up at home with some tattoo they got out of rebellion that, once they were older, they'd regret. Wait till you're older, I'd say, when you're more aware of consequences and can make these decisions smartly. My daughters wanted multiple ear piercings. No, I'd say. Adding extra holes to your body are decisions to made in later days. Not now, as a teen, when impulsiveness runs dangerously high. If that's what you want to do some day, great. But not now. Wait. Please. We've always been Alabama football fans in my house. My mother went to school there. She loved it. She told stories about her sorority days and the night she stood up Joe Namath because she saw him from behind as she was coming down the stairs of her sorority house and his hair touched his collar. She went back to her room and called downstairs sick. My father went to dental school at the University of Alabama School of Dentistry which was in Birmingham and eventually became UAB. As kids, we considered it Alabama though not in Tuscaloosa. So our mom and dad went to Alabama in our eyes. I was a fan as a kid and it passed to my kids. My favorite oldest son goes to school there and my favorite youngest son will begin there in the fall. They wore Alabama jerseys as children watching the football games in the den in the fall. Auburn has been the butt of jokes for a long time around my house only because it's our rival and that's the way you talk about rivals. I can remember saying that my kids are welcome to go to Auburn but once they do, they can never come home again. It sometimes got a laugh. Well, last night, my favorite youngest daughter announced she has committed to attend Auburn University in the fall. And I was elated. I truly was. She's found a place that she likes and, based on her friends there, a place that likes her. She's smart and they like smart people at Auburn. She's creative and ambitious, and they like those people at Auburn, too. Gone is my bravado about never sending a child to that cow college on the plains and her never being allowed to come home again. She's breaking a mold, breaking a tradition, carving her own path. And if this is her rebellion against her family, I'm grateful for it. It's not bad, not bad at all. In fact, I'm quite proud of her. I'm Cam Marston and I'm just trying to Keep It Real.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Dr. Mark Thornton to the show. Dr. Mark Thornton is Economist and Senior Fellow at the Mises Institute. The discussion centers on the current state of precious metals, monetary policy, and economic systems, with a particular focus on gold and silver’s role in the global financial landscape. Thornton argues that gold is fundamentally money, and governments have only recently forced their way into replacing commodity money with fiat currency. He suggests that the current precious metals market is still in its early stages, with central bank buying and distrust in the US dollar driving significant interest. The gold and silver markets are experiencing growing pains, with increasing investor attention and potential for further price appreciation. The conversation delves into the fundamental differences between Austrian and Keynesian economics. Thornton criticizes Keynesian economics as a state-controlled ideology that promotes government spending and manipulates interest rates, whereas Austrian economics advocates for market-driven monetary systems and private property rights. He highlights how central bank policies create economic bubbles and exacerbate wealth inequality by favoring asset-rich individuals. Thornton sees potential for a significant monetary transformation, potentially triggered by the current precious metals bull market. He believes the collision between Western and Eastern financial markets, coupled with the rise of cryptocurrencies, could lead to a fundamental restructuring of monetary systems. The possibility of a return to a gold standard or a gold-backed settlement currency is discussed as a potential future scenario. The economist also warns about potential economic bubbles in artificial intelligence and private equity, arguing that the Federal Reserve’s monetary policies have created unsustainable conditions across various sectors. He believes that while central banks have been able to temporarily extend economic cycles, their power is not infinite, and a significant market correction is inevitable. Thornton concludes by emphasizing the importance of understanding Austrian economic principles and encourages listeners to explore the works of economists like Friedrich Hayek to gain deeper insights into monetary systems and economic dynamics.

In this powerful episode of the Conscious Fertility Podcast, Dr. Lorne Brown welcomes renowned reproductive endocrinologist Dr. Natalie Crawford for a deeply informative conversation on fertility, inflammation, hormonal health, and the science behind optimizing egg and sperm quality. Dr. Crawford shares her personal journey through recurrent pregnancy loss, her evidence-based whole-body approach to fertility care, and the foundations of her upcoming book The Fertility Formula. Together, they break down how inflammation, lifestyle, stress, and metabolic health shape reproductive potential — and why fertility is not a mystery, but a formula you can influence.Key takeaways:Inflammation is a major driver of poor egg and sperm quality, hormone imbalance, and implantation challenges — but it is modifiable.Cycle tracking matters: luteal phase length and symptoms can offer early clues about hormonal and metabolic health long before bloodwork changes.Egg quality is not only about age — metabolic and inflammatory factors significantly influence cellular function.Stress and cortisol imbalance contribute to insulin resistance and inflammation, directly affecting fertility in both men and women.Lifestyle choices — sleep, movement, nutrition, toxin exposure, and emotional health — are central pillars of the “fertility formula.”Dr. Natalie Crawford Bio:Natalie Crawford, is a MD who is board certified in both Obstetrics and Gynecology and Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility and is co-founder of Fora Fertility, a boutique fertility practice in Austin, Texas. Dr. Crawford is CEO and co-founder of Pinnacle, a professional network for women in medicine.

(00:01) Indoor Golf Facilities and Game Improvement This chapter explores the transition from outdoor to indoor golf as the colder months approach, highlighting the growing popularity and benefits of indoor golf facilities. We discuss the advanced technology available at these venues, such as launch monitors and simulators, which provide golfers with detailed feedback on their game, including club head speed and ball flight information. While some facilities offer a more entertainment-focused experience, others provide a hybrid of entertainment and performance enhancement, akin to venues like Topgolf. We emphasize the importance of certain metrics like club head speed in improving one's game, while also noting that not all available data is necessary for every golfer. The chapter highlights how these modern facilities cater to both casual players seeking fun and serious golfers aiming to maintain or improve their skills during the off-season. (13:42) State-of-the-Art Indoor Golf Facilities This chapter focuses on the pros and cons of indoor golf facilities, particularly in terms of practicing different aspects of the game like putting and hitting off mats. I explore the advancements in indoor golfing technology, including massive screens and realistic mats that replicate the feel of real grass, and how these can benefit practice sessions. We discuss the limitations, such as the difficulty in perfecting putting indoors, and how high costs reflect the quality of the equipment used. Additionally, we touch on the potential for such facilities in areas like Las Vegas and South Florida, and how they might attract more visitors. The chapter underscores the importance of investing in quality equipment for a realistic golfing experience, even when playing indoors. (25:50) Visual Golf Training Tools and Techniques This chapter focuses on the transformative power of simple tools in enhancing skills and understanding in golf. We discuss the potential of showcasing these tools in a video format, emphasizing how visual demonstrations can profoundly impact learning and skill improvement. Highlighting both high-tech and no-tech solutions, we explore how these tools can offer significant benefits, often surprising users with their effectiveness. A particular focus is placed on a magnetic pointer tool that attaches to a golf club face, helping golfers understand club face alignment. By providing a visual representation, this tool aids in improving aim and swing, ultimately enhancing overall performance and understanding of the game. Through seeing and understanding these simple yet effective tools, golfers can achieve greater satisfaction and improvement in their game. (32:24) Improving Golf Skills Indoors This chapter explores the benefits of practicing golf indoors, emphasizing the confidence and skill improvement that comes from visualizing and aligning your swing correctly. By using a launch monitor, you can get instant feedback without losing balls, making it easier to practice specific shots repeatedly. We highlight the advantages of using the same golf balls indoors that you would use on the course to maintain consistency in feel and flight. Indoor practice becomes especially valuable during seasons when outdoor play is less comfortable, providing an opportunity to continue improving your game and working towards breaking your personal goals. (37:32) Indoor Golf Benefits and Fun This chapter covers a range of topics, beginning with a light-hearted discussion about sports betting on FanDuel, particularly focusing on Indiana University's match against Penn State and the coaching changes affecting both teams. We then shift gears to talk about the world of golf, touching on the dismissal of Auburn University's coach, Hugh Freeze, due to his golfing habits, and exploring the advantages of playing golf indoors with modern technology. We highlight the affordability and convenience of virtual golf experiences, comparing them to the costly adventure of playing iconic courses like Pebble Beach. I share personal experiences from my travels to renowned golf courses, emphasizing the importance of embracing the full experience rather than skimping on such memorable journeys. Throughout the chapter, there's a playful nod to nostalgic pop culture references, adding a touch of humor to the conversation. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS EPISODE ABOUT EFFECTIVE LAW FIRM LEADERSHIP When people don't understand why their work matters or how it connects to where the firm is going, they show up differently. They do what's required but not much more. And that gap between doing the minimum and bringing your best? That's discretionary effort. Law firm leaders deal with this all the time. You've got talented people who care about their work, but they're buried under billable hours and competing priorities. It's difficult to step back and create the clarity that actually helps people engage. In this episode of The Lawyer's Edge, Elise talks with executive coach Dusty Holcomb about practical ways to lead more intentionally. Dusty shares five questions that help leaders connect their teams to purpose and vision and explains why you have to repeat key messages far more often than feels comfortable. They also dig into how to shift from constant reaction mode to intentional leadership and what it really takes to lead yourself before you can effectively lead others. 4:52 — Why leadership is influence, not authority, and why it starts with leading yourself first 8:07 — The five questions that help leaders bring purpose and clarity to their teams 11:36 — How simplifying expectations keeps people focused and accountable 15:10 — The role of consistency and repetition in creating alignment and culture 19:24 — Shifting from reactivity to intentional leadership and controlling your calendar before it controls you 23:18 — How reflection and planning build self-awareness and better decision-making 27:42 — When to delegate, what to let go of, and how trust frees leaders to lead 31:56 — Why discretionary effort is the measure of a healthy, engaged team 35:27 — What lawyers can learn from leadership practices outside the legal profession MENTIONED IN CONNECTING THE DOTS: HOW TO EFFECTIVELY LEAD YOURSELF AND OTHERS The Arcqus Group Dusty Holcomb on LinkedIn 10x Is Easier Than 2x by Dan Sullivan and Dr. Ben Hardy Chick-fil-A's "My Pleasure" Example Get connected with the coaching team: hello@thelawyersedge.com The Lawyer's Edge SPONSOR FOR THIS EPISODE Today's episode is brought to you by the Ignite Women's Business Development Accelerator, a 9-month business development program created BY women lawyers for women lawyers.

In this episode of Supply Chain Now, Scott Luton sits down with two leaders shaping the future of reverse logistics from the floor to the classroom: Troy Campbell, Director of Reverse Logistics Centers at The Home Depot, and Dr. Glenn Richey, Jr., Harbert Eminent Scholar in Supply Chain Management at Auburn University.Troy opens the doors to Home Depot's four Reverse Logistics Centers: Phoenix, Pittston (PA), McDonough (GA), and Indianapolis, showing why a people-first culture remains the operating system for returns at scale. He gets real about “automation when the box isn't a box,” how rethinking inbound flows through 3PLs reduces touches and transportation cost, and why simple vendor conversations (like consolidating daily pallets into a single weekly load) can unlock outsized impact. His north star: make associates' days easier, and the entire reverse network improves.Glenn zooms out to the macro shifts: the move from minimizing returns to maximizing returns within a circular economy, generative AI for scenario planning and real-time decision support, and reverse logistics as the operational backbone of sustainability. He maps the skills the next workforce will need, calls for clearer industry coding to separate reverse data from forward logistics, and outlines how universities can build dedicated reverse tracks. Together, Troy and Glenn offer a practical, research-backed playbook for turning returns into speed, value, and advantage without losing the human element that makes it work.Jump into the conversation:(00:00) Intro(01:17) Interview with Troy Campbell from Home Depot(04:20) Challenges and innovations in reverse logistics(08:49) Networking opportunities and industry insights(17:20) Interview with Glenn Richey from Auburn University(19:30) About Auburn's supply chain management program(20:52) Maximizing returns in a circular economy(23:29) Role of generative AI within supply chain operations(28:34) Reverse logistics and sustainability practices explained(32:26) The next generation of logistics skills(34:55) Engaging students in reverse logistics educationResources:Connect with Troy Campbell: https://www.linkedin.com/in/troy-campbell-6321a31/ Connect with Dr. Glenn Richey: https://www.linkedin.com/in/glennrichey/ Learn more about The Home Depot: https://www.homedepot.com/ Learn more about The Harbert College of Business at Auburn University: https://harbert.auburn.edu/index.html Learn more about the Reverse Logistics Association: https://rla.org/ Connect with Scott Luton: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottwindonluton/Learn more about Supply Chain Now: https://supplychainnow.com Watch and listen to more Supply Chain Now episodes here:
