Story of the Week (DR):JP Morgan's news weekThe Lurid Lawsuit, Salami Scandal and Trash-Can Thief Vexing JPMorgan's PR Department AND Meme of 'JPMorgan's HR Department in 2026' Has People in Stitches Amid Sex Scandal and Knicks Bin IncidentShe Stole a Knicks Trash Can Off the Street and Lost Her Job at JPMorganThe Trash Bin That Cost Her Career: Who Is Angie Báez? JPMorgan DEI Executive Fired After Viral Knicks Parade VideoThe Trash-Can Thief: Angie Báez, an Executive Director of Community and Industry Engagement at the bank, was captured on a viral video during the New York Knicks championship parade emptying a public trash bin onto a Manhattan sidewalk so she could steal the limited-edition, blue-and-orange Knicks-themed container.The Resolution: JPMorgan quickly terminated her employment after the video went viral. Báez eventually returned the trash bin and was issued $175 in sanitation fines.But what kinds of thing DON'T get you fired and get you fined?In 2023, JPMorgan Chase agreed to a $290 million (1,657,143x) settlement to resolve a class-action lawsuit from survivors of Jeffrey Epstein. The bank was accused of actively ignoring glaring red flags and helping bankroll Epstein's sex-trafficking operation for 15 years.Internal documents and later congressional probes revealed that the bank processed roughly 4,700 suspicious transactions totaling $1.1 billion for Epstein. They failed to file a single Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) until after his death.Who Kept Their Job? Mary Erdoes: The Head of Asset & Wealth Management was fully aware of Epstein's status as a high-risk sex offender, reviewed his account, and was directly implicated in internal communications regarding his status. She faced zero professional demotions and remains one of the top candidates to eventually succeed Jamie Dimon as CEO.In 2020, JPMorgan Chase entered a deferred prosecution agreement and agreed to pay a record $920 million (5,257,143x) to settle federal charges of market manipulation.For nearly a decade, traders on JPMorgan's precious metals and U.S. Treasuries desks engaged in "spoofing"—placing tens of thousands of fake, deceptive orders to artificially move market prices and maximize their own profits. The FBI stated that traders "openly disregarded U.S. laws."While a couple of mid-to-high-level traders (like Michael Nowak and Gregg Smith) were later criminally convicted and sentenced to prison, the executive leadership team responsible for supervising them and implementing compliance programs suffered no casualties. Top management stayed perfectly secure, chalking the multi-million dollar fraud up as the work of a few "bad apples."The Salami Scandal: Veteran wealth manager Brent Bodner was fired by JPMorgan in 2024 after he expensed a $642.50 deli platter (containing wings, sandwiches, and salads) for a Super Bowl gathering at his Beverly Hills home. The bank accused him of intentionally misclassifying a personal party as a pre-approved business meeting.Bodner counter-sued, jokingly dubbing the controversy the "salami incident." He argued that the event was a legitimate client-acquisition dinner that only two prospects ended up attending, and that the minor coding error was used as a pretext to push him out.The Resolution: A FINRA arbitration panel sided heavily with Bodner, ruling that JPMorgan acted preemptively out of paranoia that brokers were leaving for rivals. The panel ordered JPMorgan to pay Bodner $4.25 million in damages.The Lurid Lawsuit: Chirayu Rana, a former vice president on JPMorgan's leveraged finance team, leveled highly salacious allegations against his female supervisor, Executive Director Lorna Hajdini. Rana's lawsuit alleges he was subjected to a campaign of racial discrimination, severe harassment, and forced sexual relations under the threat of having his career sabotaged.The Resolution: Rana rejected a $1M settlement offer, countering with a demand for up to $22 million before escalating the fight to court. Both Hajdini and JPMorgan strongly deny the allegations as entirely fabricated, and the legal battle is moving toward a highly publicized trial.JPMorgan Chase promotes Petno, Rohrbaugh to copresidents, setting up two more successors for DimonThe Wait to Replace Jamie Dimon Keeps Getting Longer: Another potential successor, Marianne Lake, is leaving JPMorgan, as the longstanding chief executive enters his third decade atop the bank.How JPMorgan went from 3 female CEO contenders to an all-male succession raceJPMorgan named Doug Petno and Troy Rohrbaugh, current co-heads of the bank's commercial and investment bank, as co-presidents, setting them up as the frontrunners to succeed longtime CEO Jamie Dimon. Their promotions, the bank said in a press release, "are part of the Board's ongoing succession planning process."Petno and Rohrbaugh were among a handful of powerhouse candidates poised to succeed Dimon, including Jennifer Piepszak, chief operating officer, Marianne Lake, CEO of the commercial bank, and Mary Erdoes, CEO of asset and wealth management.Marianne Lake, a Potential Dimon Successor, Leaves JPMorganOne-time Retention and Continuity equity awards to the following Operating Committee members:Doug Petno, Co-President and CEO of the Commercial & Investment Bank, and Troy Rohrbaugh, Co-President and CEO of Consumer & Community Banking, in the amount of $30M each;Mary Erdoes, CEO of Asset & Wealth Management, and Jennifer Piepszak, Chief Operating Officer, in the amount of $20M each.JPMorgan Chase unveils $50 billion buyback, Goldman Sachs raises dividend after Fed stress testA 6 year study shows which CEOs are pushing RTO mandates: The ones with the biggest egosFortune 500 bosses demanding staff return to the office share one trait: narcissism, research findsA six-year study tracking corporate executives revealed that strict return-to-office (RTO) mandates are heavily driven by narcissism and executive ego, rather than actual employee productivityWharton organizational psychologist Adam Grant noted that researchers used reliable corporate proxies to quantify CEO narcissism, including the oversized scale of their compensation packages, the size of their signatures, and the prominence of their photos in company annual reports.The data showed that leaders with highly inflated self-opinions consistently coveted maximum power and status, making them the most aggressive opponents of remote work.Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan pushed hard for a 5-day-a-week return to the office. Why they're now letting employees work from homeGameStop CEO Cohen spurns $35 billion pay plan to focus on plan to buy eBayGameStop CEO on His eBay Pursuit: ‘I'm Not Going to Stop, I'm Not Going to Go Away'GameStop unveiled a compensation package worth roughly $35B for Ryan Cohen in January, hinging on a turnaround that requires him to lift the struggling company's market value more than tenfold and sharply boost its profit.In May, Cohen surprised Wall Street with an unsolicited offer to buy eBay for roughly $56 billion in cash and stock to turn the e-commerce company into a bigger competitor to Amazon.EBay's board rejected the proposal, calling the offer "neither credible nor attractive."Cohen argued that he doesn't want the package so that GameStop's leadership can fully focus on its operating performance and the planned acquisition.SpaceX handed lowest possible ESG rating by MSCI: Triple C score puts Elon Musk's company on par with Russia after 2022 invasion of UkraineMusk 'most obvious risk' following SpaceX's lowest possible ESG rating“Board of Directors: The SPACE EXPLORATION TECHNOLOGIES board currently has an independent majority, which enables it to more effectively fulfill its critical function of overseeing management on behalf of shareholders. The company has failed to split the roles of CEO and chairman, which may limit the board's independence from current management interests. Split CEO and chairman roles are characteristic of 67% of companies in this market.”Welltower CFO's $167 million pay package sets new recordWelltower's Tim McHugh is the new highest-paid finance chief among the biggest U.S. companies. His $167 million pay package in 2025 not only dwarfs that of his CFO peers but also outpaces the compensation of many CEOs.McHugh's pay at Welltower, a real-estate investment trust focused on rental housing for seniors, surpasses the $139 million compensation package received by Tesla's Vaibhav Taneja in 2024. This puts him more than $135 million above Alphabet's Anat Ashkenazi, the next highest-paid CFO in 2025. And it secures him a spot in the club of executives making $100 million or more, a group that remains rare.Here's what the article DID NOT MENTION: CEO Shankh Mitra: $821MGoodliest of the Week (MM/DR):DR: Scientists Say New Method Turns Coffee Grounds Into High-Potency Renewable FuelAccording to a press release from South Korea's National Research Council of Science and Technology, a team of researchers at the Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources (KIGAM) have developed a method to convert spent coffee waste into high-quality charcoal, known as biochar.While that's a feat in and of itself, the kicker is the method's blistering speed: it takes just 90 seconds from start to finish, with no drawn-out drying process or oil separation required. According to the release, the new technique solves a major issue in extracting the latent energy potential of spent coffee beans.DR: Bill to raise minimum wage to $25 an hour will be introduced in Senate DR MMThe bill would incrementally increase the minimum wage from its current rate of $7.25, with the first jump to $12 an hour in the first year of enactment. Major corporations would have six years to work up to a $25 minimum wage, while smaller employers would have a 13-year runway. The legislation would also do away with subminimum wages for tipped workers, such as restaurant servers, youth workers and workers with disabilities. Nearly half of the American workforce makes less than $25 an hour.DR: Federal judge blocks new law aimed at ESG, DEI investing decisionsA federal judge has blocked Kansas from enforcing a new law that requires institutional investment advisers to make certain disclosures when recommending against company management on issues, including environmental, social and governance principles.U.S. District Judge Holly Teeter on Wednesday issued a preliminary injunction halting enforcement of law enacted last session that two major national institutional investment advisers said was unconstitutional because it discriminated based on speech.MM: MacKenzie Scott alone accounted for one-third of America's $19.2 billion in megagifts last yearAssholiest of the Week (MM):CEO SPEED ROUND - ONE HEADLINE, ONE CEO, ONE LINERTim Cook - It's pretty sweet to quit your job and let the new guy fight the union: Apple closed America's first unionized store and blocked workers from transfers — now the union is fighting backJamie Dimon - It was easy - we just pointed to the ones with boobs and said “Not you”: How JPMorgan went from 3 female CEO contenders to an all-male succession raceZuck - The best thing about being a little man king with no accountability is I can randomly change and unchange and rechange my mind… about people's lives: Meta pauses an AI training program that tracks employees' keystrokes after an internal leakLarry Fink - Have you SEEN the size of my signature???

The higher the score, the more likely a CEO was to publicly oppose remote and hybrid work and seek additional status (like a board chairmanship). In a separate experiment, CEOs whose egos were primed—by reflecting on the assertive leadership styles of Steve Jobs and Larry Ellison—showed significantly greater opposition to working from home than a control group”Andy Jassy - Now we know EXACTLY when you're wasting our time peeing in a bottle instead of working: Amazon is on a mission to optimize warehouse work.

This week, the AI industry continues its speedrun toward becoming the tech equivalent of a late-stage casino. Elon Musk insists reports of aid-cut-related deaths don't exist despite mountains of evidence, SpaceX stock slides far enough to knock him out of the trillionaire club, and a startup is literally suing the U.S. government because Anthropic's Fable 5 model got turned off after three whole days of availability. Once again, we revisit the First Commandment of Grumpy Old Geeks: never build your company on someone else's platform.Meanwhile, gas stations are being accused of using AI to coordinate prices, corporations are discovering that AI tokens cost actual money, and a Microsoft researcher used goats in Age of Empires II to demonstrate that maybe, just maybe, people are projecting way too much intelligence onto chatbots. The goats emerge with their reputations intact. The AI industry, less so.The workforce bloodbath rolls on as Oracle quietly sheds 21,000 employees while blaming AI, Norway bans generative AI for elementary school students after discovering that children should probably learn to read before outsourcing their homework to robots, and the FCC flirts with rules that could effectively kill anonymous burner phones in the name of fighting scams. Over at Meta, an employee surveillance program accidentally exposed sensitive data to the entire company because of course it did, while Zuckerberg continues his relentless quest to strap cameras to everyone's face and call it progress. Add in YouTube settling another social-media-harm case, Chrome finally kneecapping traditional ad blockers, and prediction markets spreading across tech like mold in a college apartment, and it's becoming increasingly clear that every bad idea eventually gets funded.In transportation news, autonomous vehicles continue demonstrating that "mostly works" is not a reassuring phrase when attached to two tons of moving metal. A Tesla on Autopilot crashes into a home and kills a grandmother, Rivian faces lawsuits over self-driving promises its hardware allegedly can't fulfill, and Waymo recalls thousands of robotaxis after they developed an unfortunate habit of driving into closed freeway construction zones. Elsewhere, Elon and Bezos are eyeing billions in broadband subsidies, Polymarket is accused of paying influencers to fake betting videos and climate data archivists are preserving public information from political interference.Media recommendations include The Mandalorian, Silo, Strange New Worlds, Dungeon Crawler Carl, and a reminder that Firefox may soon be the last refuge for people who enjoy both the internet and ad blockers. Some weeks the future feels exciting. This week it mostly feels like an extended warranty scam.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

This episode cuts through the noise about AI to address the urgent question of how to use it to increase capacity rather than replacing it. It introduces the critical distinction between using AI as Autopilot—which produces the finished thing but outsources core thinking—and using it as an Amplifier, which forces you to think sharper and compounds your ability over time.
Are you tired of making tiny profit margins on your real estate investments while dealing with the stress of standard tenants? What if you could easily multiply your current rental cash flow without buying a single new property? In this episode of Exit Strategies Radio Show, Corwyn J. Melette sits down with Air Force veteran and Roundtable Living founder Katrina Robinson to discuss strategic co-living and how one property can create stronger cash flow, provide affordable housing, and become a lasting legacy asset.Katrina shares how room-by-room housing models can help address affordability challenges while creating opportunities for investors to grow income, serve their communities, and build generational wealth. The conversation explores responsible real estate ownership, community impact, operational systems, and the importance of creating opportunities that benefit both property owners and residents.Key Takeaways:01:34 Why buying more properties isn't always the answer04:10 How strategic co-living increases cash flow09:42 Addressing housing affordability through shared housing11:40 A real story of housing transformation and opportunity14:10 Managing risk and operations in shared housing20:27 Group Home on Autopilot explained24:52 Community impact and neighborhood responsibility26:28 Turning one property into a legacy assetLegacy Building Takeaway:"Because I've documented all of the processes, I can take that and give that to my daughters, and I have given them a business and 15 doors now."

On today's episode, we discuss everything from Dwayne's “Popeye” cruise-ship breakfast at Emeril's Bistro to the latest adventures (and misadventures) with Tesla's full self-driving update, including a widely reported 90‑mph house crash that the guys strongly suspect was not actually Autopilot's fault. They dig into the human-factors problem of mixed human/AI control—how easy it is to forget who's really driving—and why some of them actually want a future Tesla with no steering wheel so liability is crystal clear. From there, the conversation moves to geopolitics and institutions: the collapse of USAID funding for left‑wing NGOs in South America, a Trump‑aligned win in Colombia that finished counting votes in a day, and California's slow, “legal but rigged” election systems that they argue effectively repeal old anti‑“cooping” safeguards put in after Edgar Allan Poe's death. They also cover Britain's political shake‑up after Starmer's resignation, a scathing report on mass grooming‑gang crimes against girls, and growing worry about resurgent antisemitism amid younger generations who were never really taught about the Holocaust. The show wraps with speculation that J.D. Vance is now the odds‑on favorite as Trump's running mate and potential tiebreaker vote for the SAVE Act, plus the customary PJ's Coffee plug—complete with detailed directions, pastry recommendations, and an invitation for listeners to email topic ideas.

Zurück in deine Kraft - Für einen bewussten und achtsamen Umgang mit Trauer und Verlust
Willkommen bei „Zurück in deine Kraft“. Dieser Podcast ist ein ruhiger Raum für Menschen in inneren Übergängen. Für Zeiten, in denen sich im Innen oder Außen etwas verändert, verschiebt oder nicht mehr wirklich stimmig anfühlt. Hier geht es nicht darum, schneller zu funktionieren oder dich ständig zu optimieren. Sondern darum, dich selbst wieder besser zu spüren und zu verstehen. Ich spreche über: • emotionale Überforderung • innere Prozesse • Nervensystem & Selbstkontakt • Wahrhaftigkeit • bewusste Veränderung • ein bewusstes Leben und den Weg zurück zu dir selbst. Ehrlich, ruhig und ohne künstliche Motivationsenergie. Dieser Podcast ist eine Einladung, langsamer zu werden, durchzuatmen, innerlich wieder klarer zu sehen und dich selbst zwischen all dem Außen wieder bewusster wahrzunehmen. Für mehr Verbindung, emotionale Sicherheit und einen bewussteren Alltag.
In this episode, I explain what “Attract Money on Autopilot” really means. Old thoughts, beliefs, expectations, and past experiences can create money blocks and keep you repeating the same results. When those patterns are running in the background, they can affect your relationship and results with money without you even realizing it. By beginning to rewire those patterns, you can become more open to attracting money naturally and creating a nice, steady flow. I also share details about my free Attract Money on Autopilot workshop.

Regular drinking and early sobriety often feel like living on autopilot, where we are repeating the same routines without conscious awareness. Alcohol changes the brain to increase mindless activity, which can lead to rumination, excessive self-focus, anxiety, and addiction-related thought loops. In this episode, you'll learn about how alcohol affects the brain and puts us on autopilot, how this keeps us stuck, and when this recovers in sobriety. Many people mistake life stress as the main source of overwhelm, but a lot of it actually comes from how alcohol disrupts brain function.

Steve Mordue joins us to talk about the AI landscape that SMBs are facing today and how that led to his team's launch of a new AI offering, RapidClaw, an OpenClaw-based agent framework that made it to market before the reveal of Microsoft's latest autonomous offering category, Autopilot, and the first of its agents, called Scout. Steve explains how he has made sense of some of the big choices today in the enterprise IT space like pre-built services from hyperscalers, the rise of AI agents, different user interface options, and a variety of billing models. He also explains how his team made some of their decisions, like the use of OpenClaw as an agent harness that each organization can host with full control. We also discuss how Steve sees AI costs shifting, some of the qualities of effective agents, and the importance of natural language-driven interfaces. Show notes: 6:45 - How are customers should be calibrating their AI priorities vs what many are doing so far 9:50 - Copilot Studio and Power Automate co-existing 4:30 - Boring successes 24:00 - How costs are shaking out for clients 30:15 - How partner billing will change with AI 34:00 - Are we moving away from user-based license model, and what does that mean for partners

OB440: Autopilot- Garbage In, Garbage Out Released to show supporters on 5/27/2026 Public release scheduled for 6/17/2026 Have a great week, and thanks for listening to Opposing Bases Air Traffic Talk! ✈️ Real pilots. Real controllers. Real talk.
Have you ever said yes and felt your stomach drop the second the word left your mouth? Have you ever gone along with something, not because you wanted to, but because saying no felt too risky, too selfish, or just too hard? That discomfort has a name, and it runs a lot deeper than conflict avoidance or wanting to keep the peace. People pleasing is a fear based pattern, and in this episode, we get into what's really driving it, why saying no can feel almost impossible, and what it actually costs you when your self worth gets tied to how much you give. In this episode, you'll hear: What people pleasing in relationships really looks like: overgiving, over-helping, and automatically going along with what everyone else wants Where genuine kindness ends and self abandonment begins, and how to recognize which one's driving you How self worth, approval seeking, and conditional love shape the way you try to stay accepted and loved Why body image can become another arena where people pleasers learn to seek approval and shrink themselves to fit in How simple boundary language can help you pause before the automatic yes takes over Why learning to sit with discomfort is the real path to choosing yourself If you've ever felt responsible for everyone else's comfort, this one's for you. Your self worth was never supposed to depend on how much you help, how agreeable you are, or how well you keep the peace. Let's rebrand wellness together! Elizabeth, Tara & Maria Connect with us!

Most travelers think booking a flight is the finish line. They hit purchase and consider the deal done. Sam Hollander knew something they didn't: the booking is actually just the beginning. When domestic airlines permanently removed change fees during the pandemic, they accidentally created an enormous opportunity for travelers to save money after they've already booked their flights and hotels. Sam founded Autopilot, a platform to help solve the problem most travelers face: they don't have the time or energy to manually monitor prices and rebook when fares drop, even though they legally can. Sam and I dive into how airline repricing actually works, which flights are most likely to drop in price (spoiler: premium cabins and international routes), the pricing data he's uncovered after tracking millions of travel reservations, and how the timing of your booking impacts your repricing potential. We also explore the psychology of booking early versus waiting for a better deal, the practical features Autopilot offers for different types of travelers, and why the post-booking experience is where the real travel optimization opportunity lives.

Autopilot does not look like failure. It looks like a normal Monday. Same huddle. Same handoffs. Same scripts. Same “let's have a great day.” Nothing looks broken. The schedule moves. Patients get seen. The practice feels consistent.But the same bottlenecks keep coming back. The same treatment plans stay unscheduled. The same follow-ups almost happen.That is not a systems problem. It is something most practice owners never think to look for.In Day 11 of The Flow Protocol, Dr. Dave reveals one overlooked performance trigger that helps a checked-out team become more alert, more engaged, and more useful in the moments that move production, trust, and profit.In this episode:Why a “well-run” practice can still drift into flat growth.The hidden reason consistency can stop producing better results.How one small shift can wake up your team without adding another meeting, bonus, or management headache.Press play on Day 11 and learn how to keep autopilot from becoming your profit ceiling.
What if you never had to manually check whether the price of your flight or hotel dropped after booking? In this episode, we sit down with Sam Hollander, founder of Autopilot, to discuss how his platform is helping travelers save money by automatically monitoring reservations and identifying opportunities for refunds, travel credits, and lower prices. For anyone who loves points, miles, and maximizing travel value, this technology could be a game changer.Sam walks us through how Autopilot works, which airlines and hotel programs are currently supported, and what's coming next—including Southwest integration, international bookings, upgrade tracking, and more. We also discuss security, award travel support, and how automation can help busy travelers avoid leaving money on the table. Whether you're booking with cash, points, or a mix of both, this episode is packed with practical tips to help you get more value from every trip.Mentioned in this Episode:Try out Autopilot hereCardpointersEmail Sam at Sam@WithAutopilot.comFind Us On Online:Girl's Trip Interest Form (April 7-10, 2027)Summer Road Trip Submissions ARE BACK!Sign Up for the Y!

Justin Vacula of the Hurdy Gurdy Travel Podcast responds to an NBC News article titled “How High-End Credit Card Perks Are Hurting Shoppers Who Pay in Cash.” Original article: https://www.nbcnews.com/business/consumer/credit-card-perks-hurt-shoppers-pay-cash-debit-rcna346905 The article frames credit card rewards as a wealth transfer tied to economic inequality, but Justin argues the story misses several major points about credit cards, cash, small businesses, and responsible rewards strategy. In this solo episode, Justin challenges two central claims from the article: that merchant swipe fees disproportionately hurt low-income and middle-income Americans, and that credit card processing fees unfairly damage small businesses. He argues that the article ignores the real costs and risks of cash, including labor, theft, slower checkout lines, accounting errors, trips to the bank for deposits, and security concerns. Justin also explains why many businesses accept credit cards despite processing fees, including increased sales, easier recordkeeping, faster transactions, and greater customer convenience.

High performance and burnout are not opposites. For a lot of people, they're the same thing wearing different clothes. This episode is for the professional who is achieving by every external measure and still feeling like something is off — because that feeling is data, not weakness. Nancy Gentle Boudrie joins Bryce to talk about the inside-out approach to career alignment: what it means to make regulated, values-driven decisions about your work instead of just reacting to demands and hoping things improve. Nancy brings neuroscience and mindfulness together in a way that's practical and direct — no meditation retreat required. This episode is for high-achievers who are tired of running on autopilot and ready to make intentional choices about where their energy actually goes. About Nancy Gentle Boudrie: Nancy Gentle Boudrie is a mindset coach, corporate wellness speaker, and entrepreneur with over 20 years of coaching experience and more than three decades of business leadership. She is the creator of the Pathway to Inner Peace — Featuring the 4R Method®, an evidence-based framework blending neuroscience, mindfulness, and energy mastery. She is also the founder of the Awaken with Light App, a digital platform offering mindfulness tools and live emotional resilience practices. What We Cover: Nancy's background and what led her to build a framework around inner peace for high performers What "living on autopilot" actually looks like in a demanding career The inside-out approach — why regulation and values alignment have to come before strategy Burnout as a signal, not a failure — what it's telling you and how to listen The 4R Method and how it works in real professional contexts How to evaluate whether you're in the right fit — job, role, or career path Finding the right fit through entrepreneurship vs. staying and building from within Where to find Nancy and how to work with her Key Takeaways: Autopilot isn't neutral — it's a slow drift away from what you actually want from your career Burnout in high performers often looks like more output, not less — it hides well Regulation comes before decision-making — you cannot make good career choices from a dysregulated state Values alignment is not a soft concept; it's a performance variable that shows up in your work, energy, and retention The question isn't always "should I leave" — sometimes it's "am I showing up as myself here" Resources + Links: Awaken with Light: https://www.awakenwithlight.com/ Guest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nancyboudrie/

Points & Miles with Matt Clausen | Rove Stacking, Wells Fargo Cards, JetBlue Premier, and Getting Started Justin Vacula welcomes Matt Clausen to the Hurdy Gurdy Travel Podcast for a conversation about getting started with points and miles, smart card strategy, and some of today's more interesting opportunities in travel rewards. Recorded on May 11, 2026, this episode covers beginner-friendly advice, recent credit card news, and redemption examples that show how valuable the hobby can be. Justin and Matt begin by talking about meeting at Justin's Willow Grove, Pennsylvania meetup before getting into one of the most interesting topics in the episode: Rove stacking. Matt shares how he got started in points and miles, beginning with the Chase Sapphire Reserve, and explains how his card strategy has evolved over time. The discussion includes his current setup with Hilton cards, Chase cards, JetBlue cards, and Wells Fargo cards, along with examples of successful redemptions, including a Wyndham stay booked through Wells Fargo's 1:2 transfer ratio to Wyndham Rewards. 00:00 Podcast intro theme 00:32 Meet Matt Clausen 01:31 Rove stacking explained 03:05 Matt's points and miles origin story 06:15 Starting and navigating Chase rules 08:06 Rebuilding a card strategy 09:50 Best redemptions so far 11:11 Europe trip planning 13:16 Card issuer realities 14:19 Amex Graphite discussion 15:41 Support the show 19:48 Why Wells Fargo may be underrated 25:04 JetBlue Premier card discussion 30:07 Convincing the skeptics 35:01 Wrap-up and where to find Matt 35:49 Outro and credits —
You just spent months building a relationship through one of the most stressful, emotional purchases of someone's life. Then the deal closes, you cash the check, and you move on. Sound familiar? In this conversation, we get into the post-closing system most agents never build, and why it might be the single biggest leak in your business. The real estate industry trains us to be world-class at finding new buyers and sellers, and almost nothing on what to do with the ones we already have. We unpack the four-phase post-closing program we built ( free at https://tentenths.co/postclosing ), the Four Seasons Vail check-in moment that Garrett still tells people about years later, the Hall Steakhouse handwritten note and the bite of Wagyu that ruined every steak after it, the day-after-closing call most agents are too afraid to make, the lifestyle check-ins that uncover whether the reason they bought is actually being fulfilled, and the annual market impact report that turns a one-time client into a 20-year relationship. We also get into what we believe is the fix. The best part: the cost to acquire a referral is a fraction of the cost of a paid lead, and the relationship is already warm. It comes down to compressing your touches in the first 30 days, then settling into a six-month cadence that just keeps the energy going. Done right, you stop having to find the next deal because the next deal keeps finding you.

You are not your cravings. True transformation isn't about white-knuckling through deprivation; it's about creating space between the urge and your reaction so you can choose to act with intention.

Laura is the mind behind Unconscious Moderation, a transformative platform that combines hypnotherapy, reflective journaling, and movement to help individuals reshape their relationship with alcohol, completely free of shame or labels.

Sleep impacts every aspect of our health—from athletic performance and recovery to hormone balance, cognitive function, and longevity. But one of the most overlooked factors affecting sleep quality may be something surprisingly simple: temperature. In this episode of Marni On The Move, I speak with Dr. Nicole Moyen, Chief Science Officer at Eight Sleep, about the science behind better sleep and how temperature regulation can help optimize health, performance, and overall well-being. We dive into the role temperature plays throughout the sleep cycle, how sleep needs change with age, the impact of hormones and menopause on sleep quality, and how personalized sleep technology is helping people better understand and improve their rest. Dr. Moyen also shares practical strategies for athletes, insights into sleep stages, heart rate variability (HRV), chronotypes, and the future of sleep science. Whether you’re an athlete looking to recover faster, navigating midlife sleep changes, or simply looking to wake up feeling more energized, this conversation offers valuable insights into the power of sleep optimization. Topics Covered: • Why temperature is one of the most important factors influencing sleep quality • How sleep patterns change with age • Hormones, menopause, and temperature regulation during sleep • Understanding chronotypes and how they impact sleep habits • The science behind Eight Sleep’s Autopilot technology • Heart rate variability (HRV) and what it reveals about recovery and readiness • How temperature needs change across different sleep stages • Sleep optimization strategies for athletes and active individuals • The impact of exercise timing on sleep quality and recovery • Creating an ideal sleep environment and bedroom temperature • Sleep hygiene habits that support better rest • Innovation in sleep science and technology • Eight Sleep’s new Pregnancy Mode and personalized sleep solutions • The future of sleep optimization, health technology, and longevity CONNECT Eight Sleep on Instagram Marni On The Move Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, or YouTube` Marni Salup on Instagram and Playlist on Spotify SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER Sign up for our monthly newsletter, Do What Moves You, for Marni on the Move updates, exclusive offers, invites to events, and exciting news!

What if the biggest thing standing between you and better decisions under pressure isn't your circumstances, but the automatic “autopilot” reactions running your mind without you noticing?In this episode, clinical psychologist Dr Gregory Obert breaks down why we so often react emotionally before we even realise what's happening, and how that can distort our thinking, relationships, and choices. If you've ever snapped, assumed the worst, or regretted a reaction in the heat of the moment, this conversation connects directly to that experience and shows what's actually going on beneath it.By listening, you'll understand:How “autopilot” thinking quietly shapes your reactions and decisions without conscious awarenessSimple mindfulness techniques to interrupt unhelpful thought loops and “defuse” from them in real timePractical nervous-system tools (like sensory grounding and cold exposure) to regain control when emotions spikePress play on this episode to learn how to step out of reactive patterns and respond with clarity even in high-pressure moments.˚KEY POINTS AND TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - How Autopilot Reactions Shape Your Decisions02:35 - What Mindfulness Really Means05:58 - The Johnny Example and Assumptions Under Pressure10:16 - Defusion: Separating Thoughts from Reality12:04 - Simple Mindfulness Exercises to Build Awareness16:15 - How to Interrupt Emotional Reactions in Real Time18:24 - The 0 to 10 Emotional Scale and the Logical Brain21:41 - Using Cold Exposure to Calm Emotional Intensity29:05 - Sitting with Difficult Emotions Without Escaping Them36:07 - Where to Learn More from Dr Greg Obert˚MEMORABLE QUOTE:"It's paying attention on purpose to the present moment, non-judgmentally."˚VALUABLE RESOURCES:Dr Greg's website: https://www.royaloasispi.com/˚Coaching with Agi: https://personaldevelopmentmasterypodcast.com/mentor˚
Step into Episode 214 of On The Delo as Delo sits down with Jeremiah, Air Force veteran, mortgage broker, and multi-unit franchisee of Jeremiah's Italian Ice, for a candid conversation about building multiple businesses, staying grounded through discipline, and why family-focused frozen treats are a surprisingly powerful vehicle for entrepreneurship. From opening his first location next to Corona del Sol High School in Chandler to expanding with a drive-through near Cardinal Stadium in Glendale, Jeremiah brings real talk on what it takes to run two companies at once without letting either one fall apart.The conversation covers Jeremiah's remarkable origin story — born in Guyana, raised in Brooklyn, trained as an Air Force veteran, and pivoting from aviation to mortgages to franchising — and why he's never once thought about retiring. Delo and Jeremiah go deep on the parallels between brokering mortgages and brokering insurance, the importance of systems and high-trust relationships with your team, and why "autopilot culture" is the fastest route to a failing business. You'll also hear about Delo's new book Risky Business: The Arizona Liquor Liability and Insurance Survival Guide, the power of waking up at 4:35 AM, the joy of watching anxious teenagers build confidence scooping gelati, and why authentic person-to-person connection beats transactional business every single time.Chapter Guide (Timestamps):(0:00 - 1:26) Welcome, Delo's New Book Risky Business & Intro to Jeremiah(1:27 - 3:50) Queen Creek Growth, Arizona Roots & Origin Story(3:51 - 5:57) From Guyana to Brooklyn to the Air Force & Valley Living(5:58 - 8:12) Mortgage Brokering, Desert State Mortgage & The Broker Parallel(8:13 - 11:26) Discovering Jeremiah's Italian Ice & Opening the First Chandler Location(11:27 - 14:22) Youth Employment, Anxiety, Confidence Building & The Value of In-Person Work(14:23 - 17:07) The Jeremiah's Brand Story: Florida Roots, First Franchise in Arizona & 200 Locations(17:08 - 20:57) Family-Focused Model, Gelati, Drive-Throughs & What Makes Italian Ice Different(20:58 - 24:06) Managing Two Businesses, Daily Routine & Building a High-Trust Team(24:07 - 28:20) Health, Fitness, Prayer & Serving Mom: Staying Grounded Across It All(28:21 - 31:41) Franchising Advice: Know the Day-to-Day, Systems, and Work Ethic Required(31:47 - 38:38) Rapid Fire: Aliens, Tacos, Pull-Ups, AC/DC & Cheesecake Italian Ice

Start Here: https://breakingupwithbingeeating.transistor.fm/start-herePick the listening path that fits what you're dealing with right now.Show Notes: In this episode, Georgie gives you a practical “urge map” to answer the question that matters in real life: what kind of urge is this? Because the same pantry moment can come from very different mechanisms—and if you use the wrong tool, it's easy to assume you “did it wrong” when you were simply solving the wrong problem. The core skill is matching the tool to the mechanism.You'll learn five common urge types and what each one actually needs: the Low-Fuel urge (under-fueling—food that counts), the Depletion urge (low capacity—less load and a soft landing), the Pain Relief urge (emotional or physical discomfort—soothing and often connection), the Scarcity/Rebellion urge (restriction and “I can't” energy—a believable yes and permission with structure), and the Autopilot urge (cue chains—pattern interruption, not self-criticism). You'll also get a quick five-question check-in to identify what's driving the urge in the moment, plus concrete examples of “permission with structure” and simple ways to break an evening cue chain.Try this week: Pick your most common urge type and run one experiment for seven days—data, not a test. (Afternoon anchor snack; a 10-minute downshift after dinner; a two-word feeling label + one moment of contact; a planned “yes” with structure; or breaking one link in your autopilot routine.)Coming next: Why urges can feel so persuasive even when the eating isn't that enjoyable—wanting vs liking.
In this episode of the podcast, 585, I talk about something that has come up in conversations several times over the past few weeks with different friends and colleagues: the challenge of photographing familiar places. There's a tendency in photography to believe the next great image exists somewhere else. So we travel to new cities, another country, or another landscape. We just want something new, but some of the most meaningful photographic work comes from returning to the same places over and over again until they begin to reveal something deeper. Familiarity can make us stop paying attention. We move through our neighborhoods, parks, and daily routines sort of zoned out and not really paying attention. As photographer, we become convinced there is nothing new left to see. Yet if we let it, the camera has a remarkable ability to slow us down and reconnect us with the ordinary. When we revisit a location repeatedly, our attention shifts away from novelty and toward nuance. We can start to see the changing light, the shift of the seasons, weather, mood, gesture, rhythm, and timing of a place. Over time, the work stops being about documenting a place and becomes more about understanding our relationship to it. The photographs become less about where it was taken and more about how we see it and feel about it.
