Continuing our January return to cocktail fundamentals while Jules and Brad prep for the new year ahead. Last week we mastered the Sour; Spirit (rum), Sour (lime juice), Sweet (simple syrup) - better known as the Daiquiri. This week's Episode 11 introduces the Sidecar, which takes that Sour framework and swaps simple syrup for liqueur. This creates what's known as a Daisy style cocktail: Spirit (Cognac), Sour (lemon juice), Sweet (Cointreau). I always add a touch of simple syrup too, and you'll hear why. What's another Daisy you ask? Margarita anyone? Tequila, lime juice, Triple Sec—and yeah, it's better if you add a touch of simple syrup to that one too.

Many, many years ago (like 15 years ago when I started the pod! ) I did a bunch of shows to define terroir. This was when there was a lot of controversy over whether or not terroir was "real", with people lining up on various sides – terroir is a bunch of bunk made up by snobby French people, wine from anywhere can be made to taste the same regardless of place, the winemaker is more important than the land, and on the other side – terroir is magic that can't be explained, only European wines have a sense of place, etc., etc. In this show I discuss some of the newer definitions of terroir that most of the world has settled on, as well as the finer points that are still argued. I address how the concept of a sense of place came to be, and specifics of what's included in the definition, and then wrap with my views on terroir.

The health of our democracy depends entirely on active civic participation. In Virginia, we have elections every year, often more than once a year, so we have 365 days a year to be engaged. In this episode, we speak with Amini Bonane, a Congolese American Commissioner, community organizer, and award-winning advocate for women & girls, and Darrlynn Franklin, the President of the Alexandria Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), who has also served as a member of the Executive Committee since 2017.HBCUs are more than institutions of higher education — they are incubators of Black excellence, innovation, and leadership. They were created out of necessity, but they continue to thrive out of purpose.Even today, HBCUs represent just 3% of colleges and universities, yet they produce: • Nearly 20% of all Black college graduates, • 50% of Black doctors and lawyers, • 40% of Black engineers, • And some of the most influential voices in education, science, business, and culture.HBCUs remain essential because they provide access, belonging, and opportunity. They level the playing field by giving students the resources, mentorship, and culturally centered support that many PWIs simply can't replicate.

Brent Schutte, Chief Investment Officer at Northwestern Mutual Wealth Management Co., sees "a lot of different parts of the U.S. economy that aren't working," and while the market and economy have overcome those concerns to this point — and may have the strength to keep that up — he is concerned about the potential for a fall and says investors need to be diversified properly to ride out the year ahead. "Diversification doesn't pay all the time," Schutte says, "but it often times makes up for all the costs that it has in periods where whatever you want to concentrate in actually doesn't work. And that's where I think diversification going forward is not only a risk management tool, but it's also a return enhancer." Schutte sees the market broadening out but delivering only modest gains, and says he is more concerned about recession than most experts, because many analysts and investors are so focused on the upside that they have missed warning signs. Alessandro Valentini, fundamental portfolio manager at Causeway Capital Management, says that the gains in foreign stock markets this year were not just about currency fluctuations and he believes there is more potential for growth in 2026 as concerns over tariffs continue to diminish, the dollar produces a smaller tailwind — or at least no resistance — and low valuations create more potential for upside. Richard Stone, chief executive officer for The Association of Investment Companies — the British equivalent to the Active Investment Company Alliance — discusses differences in the activist investor cultures in the United States and Great Britain, including how "venture capital trusts" — the British equivalent of business-development companies — have tax advantages that make private credit investing much more palatable, but also why interval funds (known in England as "long-term asset funds") are a model that has stirred some controversy with investors.
In this episode of the ABA Business Leaders Podcast, hosts Stephen and April Smith of 3 Pie Squared break down one of the most misunderstood and operationally critical areas of running an ABA practice: insurance processes. From claim denials to prior authorizations, insurance workflows can either support growth or quietly stall it. Stephen and April walk through the core insurance systems every ABA business owner needs to understand, especially in the early stages, and explain why even experienced providers can run into costly mistakes. They are joined by insights from Sagar Jajoo of SILNA, who shares real-world data on where providers most often run into trouble and how strong insurance workflows can support scalability and long-term stability. The conversation highlights why most claim denials stem from front-end issues like benefit checks and authorizations, not clinical documentation, and why relying on inconsistent or manual tracking systems can quickly become a liability as your practice grows. Stephen and April also discuss how insurance processes evolve over time, what new owners typically underestimate, and why predictable, well-documented workflows matter not just for growth, but also when preparing to exit or sell a practice. If you want to scale responsibly, improve cash flow, and reduce administrative headaches, this episode lays out what to focus on and what to fix first. Get started with SILNA today: https://3piesquared.com/business-affiliate/silna Key Takeaways New ABA owners must understand the core insurance processes early, including benefit checks, authorizations, and claims submission, to avoid preventable denials. Even strong billing teams make mistakes, which is why systems and safeguards matter more than individual effort. Most claim denials originate from front-end insurance issues rather than clinical errors. Lack of standardization around prior authorizations increases risk and slows intake. Manual tracking methods often break down as practices grow. Clean, predictable insurance workflows improve scalability and make your business more attractive to buyers.
Hospice nurse Beth Cavenaugh helps to clear up confusion around live discharges from hospice services. Sometimes people on hospice care improve or stabilize, and no longer meet the criteria to receive care from the hospice agency. The discharge process can be confusing, and it's important to know the things that need to happen. Here are a few highlights from this episode: Live discharges are initiated by the hospice agency when the patient no longer qualifies.Sometimes hospice patients improve because the care has become consistent, or their condition simply gets better. Their disease process may stabilize. Hospice staff are required to give the patient and caregiver notice of the discharge according to state and federal requirements.Discharge planning should ALWAYS happen - the nurse handles the clinical items (medications, equipment, a new healthcare provider/team), and the social worker handles the psychosocial concerns (caregiving assistance, community resources and support). The patient or decision maker has the right to file an appeal if they don't agree with the discharge from hospice services. The hospice agency is required to continue providing services until the decision about the appeal is received.

Sometimes recovery doesn't fall apart because we need something new — it falls apart because we drifted away from what already works. Complication, overthinking, burnout, and ego creep in, and before we know it, we're no longer doing the simple things that kept us grounded in the first place. “How It Works” isn't outdated. It isn't basic in a dismissive way. It's foundational. When life gets loud, emotions run high, or sobriety feels shaky, the answer is rarely more information — it's returning to the fundamentals that saved our lives. In today's Daily Trudge, we talk about: Why recovery drifts over time How complexity sneaks in quietly What “back to basics” really means Why simple doesn't mean easy How ego complicates recovery The danger of thinking we've outgrown the basics Why the Steps still work when we actually work them How God meets us in simplicity We don't need a new solution. We need renewed commitment to the one that already works. Back to basics isn't going backward — it's getting re-centered.
Back to Basics: Financial Planning for Your ABA Business In this episode of the ABA Business Leaders Podcast, Stephen and April sit down with Shep from Live Oak Bank to simplify the world of ABA Finance, ABA funding, and smart financial planning for your ABA practice. Whether you are launching a new clinic or expanding your services, this conversation helps you understand how banks evaluate your business and what you need to secure the right bank loans. Shep explains how Live Oak partners with ABA providers, why accurate financial planning matters from day one, and what lenders look for when assessing SBA loans. He also highlights the difference between a loan and a line of credit, and the early financial challenges most ABA practices underestimate. The episode covers what makes an ABA startup loan-ready, how business plans influence approval, and when it may be possible to borrow without personal guarantees. Shep also touches on choosing the right real estate options and avoiding unnecessary financial strain as you grow. Whether you are preparing to open your first location or planning long-term expansion, this episode provides clear guidance on strengthening your financial foundation.

Highlights: Cleveland.com's Paul Hoynes has won the BBWAA Career Excellence Award, the highest honor for baseball writers, securing his place in the Baseball Hall of Fame. Terry Pluto praised Hoynes' "utterly remarkable" work ethic and elite writing talent, noting his longevity in the demanding field is highly impressive. The Browns' special teams fell down on the job again, with a blocked punt and a long return vs. the Titans. Coach Kevin Stefanski's uncharacteristically public criticism of the run defense is seen as a sign of significant internal frustration. An analytics-driven, late-game two-point conversion strategy was undone by poor execution, including a fumbled snap and a mistimed trick play. An argument that the Browns should use high draft picks on offensive linemen and receivers instead of a QB, as top rookie QBs often fail without a strong supporting cast. QB Shedeur Sanders benefited from not playing early in the season, as it allowed him to go to "pro football school" and learn the NFL system, similar to Patrick Mahomes's development, Terry says. Sanders's impressive performance has revived optimism for the Browns, leading Stefanski to name him the starter for the remainder of the season to evaluate his potential. Terry says Stefanski appears "mentally worn out," and while his job is precarious, a strong finish to the season led by Sanders could potentially save his position. The Cavs' 14-11 start is a major disappointment, with the team looking "discombobulated" due to player injuries and a flawed, three-point-heavy "lazy offense." Darius Garland's poor shooting and defensive struggles raise serious concerns that he is not fully recovered from foot surgery, prompting suggestions that he should rest. A Guardians fan writes to question why the team re-signed catcher Austin Hedges for $4 million, and cites his low batting average. Outfielder Chase DeLauter is identified as the Guardians' true top prospect, possessing a rare combination of size, power, and skill, with only his injury history being a concern.

In this episode, we explore the importance of stripping everything back to the basics and showing up on a truly human level. It's these foundations, warmth, consistency, repair and presence, that create safety and stability for our most traumatised children. We also reflect on how powerful our modelling is: what we, as professionals, model to parents and carers, and what they in turn model to the children in their care. When we get the basics right, everything else becomes possible.

Back to Basics: Building Relationships That Last In this episode of the ABA Business Leaders Podcast, hosts April and Stephen Smith explore one of the most important parts of growing a healthy ABA business: the people you bring into it. They dig into hiring, leadership, mentorship, and the communication habits that help an ABA therapy organization run smoothly over the long term. Whether you're in the early stages of building your ABA team or preparing to step back from daily operations, this episode gives you a clearer picture of how strong relationships and intentional hiring can shape the future of your business. Key Takeaways Hiring Should Push You Outside Your Comfort Zone April opens up about how ego sometimes gets in the way of the hiring process. ABA business owners often avoid hiring someone who might outperform them, but growth happens when you surround yourself with people who strengthen your weaknesses. She uses a “mom friend” analogy to show the value of having support from people at different stages of the journey. Different Thinkers Make Better ABA Teams Stephen and April talk about the importance of hiring people who think differently. When you intentionally build a diverse team, you bring in new ideas, new angles, and more well-rounded decision-making. For ABA organizations trying to grow sustainably, these differences lead to stronger outcomes for both staff and clients. Your Values Should Guide Every Hiring Decision Stephen emphasizes that hiring becomes much harder when you don't have a clear vision for your ABA business. Your long-term goals should show up in your job postings, interview questions, and onboarding. When your values are clear, you attract the right people from the start. Onboarding Is a Two-Way Learning Experience Onboarding isn't just training. It's a chance for both sides to learn whether the role, the expectations, and the culture are a good match. April and Stephen highlight how the early stages of onboarding help set the tone for communication, mentorship, and long-term success in your ABA therapy practice. A Strong Culture Comes From Honest Conversation You can only spend so much time shaping culture, but fostering open communication is one of the most powerful tools you have. When your team feels comfortable discussing challenges, asking questions, and offering feedback, you start building relationships that last and support stronger outcomes across your ABA therapy organization.

Episode Overview In this episode, John sits down with longtime real estate leader Jim Pruett for a powerful reminder of what actually drives success in this business: fundamentals, discipline, and treating your business like a real business. Jim breaks down why 87% of agents fail, the mindset shift required to survive in today's market, and the simple systems and habits that have allowed him to build a long-term, consistent, and respected real estate business. From setting up your business like a CEO, to mastering the purchase agreement, to building world-class community relationships, this episode is packed with timeless truths agents desperately need—especially those who keep getting distracted by shiny objects instead of focusing on the work that matters. If you feel overwhelmed, inconsistent, or unsure what to focus on to grow, this episode is the clarity punch-in-the-face you've been needing. Key Topics Covered Why Most Agents Fail The "employee-to-CEO" mindset shift every new agent must make Why shiny objects are draining your money and killing your momentum The power of joining a team to dramatically increase your odds of success Building a Real Business Setting up your business like a real CEO: accounting, legal, brand assets, and systems Why your email, your URL, and your online profiles matter more than you think The necessity of consistency across photos, bios, and digital presence Systems & Predictable Success How checklists, workflows, and repeatable processes create freedom Why systems must be "living documents" that evolve as your business grows The role of CRMs, automation, and organized procedures for scale Relationships That Produce How to build real, human connections—online and offline The key difference between transactional contacts and real influence Why "contacts sprout contracts" is still one of the truest principles in real estate How Jim's community involvement (especially the Riverfront Development Committee) became a long-term lever for influence and opportunity Know Your Value Why agents struggle to articulate value and how to fix it How to confidently have the hard conversations with buyers and sellers Why your presence alone should add value to every transaction Mastering the Fundamentals Why every agent should reread the purchase agreement weekly How pre-listing inspections reduce future friction The essential difference between working in your business vs. on your business Blocking out noise, avoiding distractions, and staying focused on what matters CEO-Level Habits The power of being a "slave to your calendar" Forecasting and knowing your numbers like a true operator How the right rooms and the right relationships change your trajectory The mindset of professionals: "Do it until you can't get it wrong." Resources & Mentions The E-Myth Revisited – Michael Gerber Profit First – Mike Michalowicz Choose Your Enemies Wisely – Patrick Bet-David The Checklist Manifesto – Atul Gawande (Chapter 1 recommended) Honey Badger Nation John Kitchens Executive Coaching → JohnKitchens.coach Final Takeaway Success isn't complicated—it's consistent. The agents who win aren't the ones chasing noise or shortcuts… they're the ones who master the basics, know their value, build real relationships, and operate like CEOs. As Jim puts it: "Professionals do it until they can't get it wrong."

Back to Basics: Building for Growth In this Back to Basics episode of the ABA Business Leaders Podcast, hosts Stephen and April Smith unpack what it really takes to grow an ABA business without burning yourself out in the process. From breaking inefficient systems before they break you to understanding your true capacity as a leader, this episode focuses on the practical, behind-the-scenes work that makes sustainable growth possible. If scaling your ABA business feels overwhelming, this conversation gives you a roadmap for doing it with intention and clarity. Key Takeaways Systems Are the Foundation of Success April and Stephen remind listeners that growth isn't about working harder — it is about building systems that work even when things get tough. If your business has solid processes in place, you're already ahead. Without systems, every challenge feels like an emergency. With them, you can scale with confidence and clarity. Grow With Intention by Knowing the “Why" Important requirements like CPR training or employee handbooks are often overlooked when you're growing fast. April emphasizes the importance of understanding the “why” behind these systems, not just ticking boxes. When you know why each piece matters, your growth becomes purposeful and much more stable. Build a Business That Can Survive Without You If you want to sell your ABA business someday, or even simply step back, it must be able to grow without you constantly pushing it forward. Stephen talks about how vital it is to build a company structure that can function independently. Long-term sustainability depends on replacing heroics with systems. From understanding your limits to building a business that can thrive without you, this conversation is a must-listen for any ABA entrepreneur preparing for the next phase. This episode is sponsored by Live Oak Bank. Live Oak offers specialized loan solutions tailored to the unique needs of ABA businesses.

In this episode of Friday Fiduciary Five, Eric Dyson emphasizes the importance of ERISA plan committee members and retirement plan professionals reviewing their plan documents and investment policy statements (IPS). He notes that forfeiture lawsuits can arise from non-compliance with plan documents. In addition to forfeiture issues, compensation definitions, eligibility, and auto-enrollment provisions of a plan document can be problematic if not observed correctly. Dyson outlines the four fiduciary duties under ERISA: prudence, loyalty, diversification, and adherence to plan documents. He advises regular reviews of these documents and IPSs, including understanding benchmarks, modern portfolio theory, and metrics like the Sharpe ratio. Dyson encourages a 12-month rolling agenda for committee meetings to ensure these reviews are conducted regularly.Connect with Eric Dyson: Website: https://90northllc.com/Phone: 940-248-4800Email: contact@90northllc.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/401kguy/ The information contained herein is general in nature and is provided solely for educational and informational purposes.It is not intended to provide a specific recommendation of any type of product or service discussed in this presentation or to provide any warranties, financial advice, or legal advice.The specific facts and circumstances of all qualified plans can vary, and the information contained in this podcast may or may not apply to your individual circumstances or to your plan or client plan specific circumstances.
Welcome to Season 2 of Profits & Prosecco! After a summer (plus a month or two!) of practicing what I preach, taking a step back, and honoring where my energy truly needed to be, I'm so thrilled to be bringing the podcast back. I missed it. You missed it. I knew it was time to bring it back…but I also knew something needed to shift. This podcast is over five years old. We've covered topics from perfectionism to imposter syndrome to the best time to start your bookkeeping business. Some of you have been listening since LIBBY (Life by the Books) went by the name BOB. And while I stand behind so much of what I've said over the years, five years is a long time. I've learned. I've grown. I've experienced things that have shifted my perspective on certain topics. I've found new ways to explain certain things. And while I have plenty of new things to share with you too, I feel it would be a disservice to you if I didn't share the wisdom I've gained after five more years of being in this business. So without further ado…here's what you can expect from Season 2.
As The Hamilcast starts to wrap up, I couldn't end this thing without jumping on the mic with Michael Paul Smith and making a podcast love letter to every listener, guest, Patreon Peep, and cool experience from these last ten years. Of course I couldn't mention everything and even as I type this, I'm kicking myself for not going back and discussing every single episode and every single experience at length and with extreme detail. But this feels very self serving as it is (woof!) so please, if you're reading this, please know how much I love I have for this entire journey, and how much fun I've had with you. It has been the absolute best and even though we do get sappy at times in this very special bonus episode (no but literally, it's a Very Special Episode of The Hamilcast), I still want these last few weeks to be a PARTY. So grab your popcorn (wink!) and join us as we take this walk down memory lane and remember, to quote Thomas Kail, I made this show for you.

This time I revisit a show from long ago on Wine Etiquette. In this Back-to-Basics episode, I cover the three main places you would use etiquette - a dinner party, a restaurant, and a tasting room. I address: The Dinner Party: What to bring a host, a good welcome drink, whether or not to open a bottle that a guest brings, the etiquette of what to do with the last glass in the bottle, and the point in the night to serve your best wine. I also talk about the proper way to pour, how high to fill a wine red or white wine glass, and whether or not to display a bottle you have decanted. Source: Des Moines Register The Restaurant: I review every step of wine ordering from perusing the menu to looking at the cork to approving the wine. I discuss the interaction with a sommelier and what to do with large groups, and how to handle a restaurant that serves less than fresh wine by the glass. I touch on giving the waiter a taste of a special wine and some ideas of what to do at a BYO restaurant. Tasting rooms: When to make a reservation, what to wear, tasting room fees, spitting, commenting/ask questions, and the most pressing question people have: what to tip tasting room staff. I tried to cover everything, but if you still have questions, feel free to reach out! Full show notes and all back episodes are on Patreon.
